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 --> 00:01:00,000
This is a Chalk production.

4
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:09,000
And I am drinking and chilling and talking all sorts of music and tea on the Twisted Critics podcast, your favorite podcast on Spotify.

5
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:15,000
And now don't let the smooth taste fool you. We getting twisted while we do a little bit of critiquing.

6
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:18,000
Happy Sunday, yo, Rob, kick us off, man.

7
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:24,000
Salud, salud, good afternoon, everyone. Doc, AM, we live again.

8
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:27,000
This is Rob from the Mob, live and direct from Miami Beach, Florida.

9
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,000
I celebrated my wedding anniversary.

10
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:35,000
Thanksgiving was a couple of weeks ago and I worked my ass off. I worked mad hours.

11
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:40,000
I partied like a rock star. I went out and did my Miami Beach thing, bro.

12
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,000
We representing. I'm still doing it.

13
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:47,000
I'm still the man out here in these streets, you know what I mean? But I'm having a good time, man, every second of the day.

14
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:49,000
Well, what's up? Forget about me. What's up with y'all boys?

15
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:56,000
So I'm good. You know, life is life. My mom had a stroke the week before Thanksgiving. She's good. No damage to her heart, lungs or brain.

16
00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:03,000
She was out in two days. She has hyperthyroidism. I think I'm saying that correct. So she has thyroid medication that regulates everything.

17
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:12,000
With that, you know, my background in psychology lets me know that anything dealing with glands, whether it's adrenal or anything that moves, right?

18
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:18,000
Number wise with how a person's hormones and things like move and active or active, the medicine can cause side effects.

19
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:24,000
So they changed the medicine depending on how she's doing, right? It didn't go well with the medicine.

20
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:29,000
The medicine is what caused her to get the blood clots in her leg, which is causing, which in turn is what caused the stroke.

21
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:34,000
But we go, we maintain it. You feel me? We had a very intimate Thanksgiving. Me, my sister, my mom. That was it.

22
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:40,000
I'm doing the same thing you're doing in terms of work at Amazon right now. We're in peak season. I got five days, 11 hours.

23
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:46,000
My son is good. I taught him how to read a lot better. I realized recently he was reading right to left.

24
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:52,000
So when he would read to, he would read it as it would be tick. And I'm sitting here like, why is that happening?

25
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:59,000
Drilled him, right? Drilled him real, real, real, real hard for two days. And I said, hey, next thing you know, he reading five letters, six letter words.

26
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:06,000
And I'm like, how you flip like that in a day? Outside of that, I am, I'm dating exclusively.

27
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:14,000
Excited about that. I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll show you, I'll show y'all who it is at some point.

28
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:19,000
And I got back to playing ball last week, last Monday. I'm playing tomorrow.

29
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:25,000
Doc, what's up with you? I'm right there with you. The life is life in real talk. It's just good to hear both of you guys again.

30
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:30,000
I kind of really needed this. Still getting back into the swing of things after Thanksgiving, holiday.

31
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:35,000
We actually hosted dinner this year. We had some family come through just for snacks and then they had to go see other family.

32
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:42,000
But open door policy in and out. It was, it was pretty good to see everybody. Long work week. It's a salary salary life.

33
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:49,000
So I don't get that overtime y'all get, but had some media based drama starting last Monday that's caused by the Canadian.

34
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:55,000
We could talk about that later. My assistant director, Nick, at the courthouse is officially gone as of the sixth.

35
00:03:55,000 --> 00:04:00,000
It was really hard to see him go, but we're going to stay afloat. I think we're going to try to do our best to stay afloat.

36
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:08,000
Gene and I followed you guys, you Rob. We had our 12th wedding anniversary last Sunday. Had to make all these damn show slides.

37
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:13,000
It took me like three nights. I'm a little tired. I'm a lot of tired this week.

38
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:17,000
So I definitely need this though. Definitely ready to drink with y'all and I'm ready for the hot seat.

39
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:23,000
Our special guest today is a funny motherfucker. Rob, why don't you dive right into the intros so we can get this party started?

40
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:30,000
Absolutely, Doc. What's up, world? This is Rob from the mob from Miami Beach, Florida. I'm 45 years old.

41
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:38,000
I'm a Scorpio born November 20, 1979. Just celebrated. Had the party of a lifetime here with Doc J and A.M.

42
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:43,000
On Hear My Voice Entertainment. We're trying to take over the world one podcast at a time, baby.

43
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:53,000
We doing big things out here. Trying to sip a little bit, trying to smoke a little bit and have a good time and bring a little bit of realness to this weird ass world.

44
00:04:53,000 --> 00:05:00,000
We in here. That's hilarious. I'm trying to bring some realness to this weirdness. Rapper A and rapper A and dot com.

45
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:04,000
Y'all already know who it is. Y'all know what it is. Co-host extraordinaire, rapper extraordinaire.

46
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:08,000
This is not me doing an elevator pitch. I'm just saying hi to y'all. We about to have a good show.

47
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:13,000
I'm already a little sear-ed, if y'all know what that means. From the gas, I just put my car.

48
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:17,000
Doc, what's up?

49
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:24,000
Premium leaded, premium leaded. But no, no, no. I'm gonna keep it real short. My name is Doc J. Real name is Jesse Joselito.

50
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:31,000
I'm 40 something something, born in New York, lived most of my life in sunny South Florida, but for the last 14 years have lived here in central Florida.

51
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:37,000
I have two degrees from FAU and Boca Raton, one in copyright trademark law, one in civil engineering.

52
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:43,000
I've interned at Sony Music, Atlantic Records and last but not least, Epic Records.

53
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:49,000
Since 2018, I've been working for MediaBase and my office is at the Kissimmee Courthouse.

54
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:56,000
I'm an artist myself. I do registry and publishing for these sexy motherfuckers and a handful of other people.

55
00:05:56,000 --> 00:06:04,000
We are podcasters for the second year, second season, and I'd like to get back into teaching and I kind of want to create a board game too.

56
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:12,000
That's my side hustle. I really love mythology and UFC MMA fighting. So that's me. Let's get right into this though.

57
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:20,000
Segment number one, what are we? As the Twisted Critics podcast, we're the bias, the unbiased brothers across the US who dig music and music business.

58
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:25,000
Twisted Critics originally began as Doc and his cousin, Tony Gange in 2018.

59
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:35,000
Now relaunched with myself, rapper A.M., Rob, Doc and I are all active artists, collaborators, radio reviewers and friends for Hear My Voice Entertainment and Publishers.

60
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:48,000
2625 will be a little different. Outside of the guests we have planned, our Twisted Critics podcast now have a newly signed merch deal and we are curating Spotify playlist to better help promote our guests and the charts next year.

61
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:57,000
From both good and bad experiences in the rap game, industry jobs and the questions, you know, misinformation we've heard at music conferences.

62
00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:04,000
I think we remember what it's like starting out, you know, the mistakes and being told false information everywhere.

63
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:08,000
So we try to provide direct answers, correct business steps and give resources.

64
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:25,000
You know, it's our mutual love though for our weekly calls, our Ear for Urban Music, our mathematical eyes on radio charts, our reviews for the labels, you know, our heated song debates, our guests and our solidarity in sharing a ton of drinks to build this therapeutic, productive and wild platform.

65
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:35,000
So please tune in like I am holding up my glass right now with an open mind and a full glass to enjoy an informative, entertaining, twisted vibe that you might actually learn something from.

66
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:46,000
Please be interactive and please send in questions via our social medias and email. That's twistedcriticsatmail.com, not at gmail.com so twistedcriticsatmail.com.

67
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:57,000
And we'll give you advice and a shout out on air. We're believers in the motto that a drunk man or woman tells no lies and how we can be helpful and entertaining. We like to call it education through inebriation.

68
00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:00,000
One of our favorite things to say real shit.

69
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:09,000
Segment number two is going to be the WFW. Before we get started, Doc and Rob, I got to ask y'all a big question. What you drinking on?

70
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:19,000
All right. So this is the first episode out of 12 episodes. I am not mixing dark with light. Joe Simmons would be very disappointed in me because I like mixing my dark with the light.

71
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:31,000
But today I'm just drinking vodka. So for my drink, I got some some Coke with some Smirnoff vanilla. So that's what I'll be sipping on this entire show. So vanilla, vanilla, vodka and Coke.

72
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:38,000
And then the case I got to take a shot. I'm just taking some straight Tito's shots. Vodka and vodka. We'll see how that goes. Rob, what you drinking on?

73
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:47,000
You know, I like to keep it a little fancy, schmancy, man. You know, so I'm drinking on a little Riesling from Alsace, you know, that's in France.

74
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:55,000
This is that and it would be pronounced and and Ducac Riesling out of Alsace. A little different from German Riesling.

75
00:08:55,000 --> 00:09:03,000
German Riesling tend to be a little sweeter. French Riesling is a little different, you know, a little drier, a little cleaner. I think it's great.

76
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:09,000
It's not too late in the afternoon. So this is perfect timing to drink this and it drinks delicious these nice dry.

77
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:17,000
And then for our shots, I had to go with, you know, the Kardashians and the Jenners, you know, got my eight one eight and Yeho Reserve tequila.

78
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:23,000
This is good stuff. I love the bottle. That is a dope bottle. Oh, man. I've never seen.

79
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:29,000
Shout out to, you know, Kendall Jenner. You know, I love her sisters, but her tequilas are great.

80
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:35,000
A.M. what you doing, bro? Drinking on. I like the job. Both acid at the same time.

81
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:39,000
I'm drinking a botanist. I'm going to continue to drink this. It's like driving.

82
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:44,000
I'm going to keep drinking until it's gone. And then I'm probably get me another bottle of Sapphire.

83
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:50,000
I'm a gin drinker, guys. Gin and juice shots out the Snoop Dogg. That's what's up, man. That's what's up.

84
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:55,000
With that said, I want you guys to do me a favor. Yeah, I got your shot glass, whatever you're drinking out of.

85
00:09:55,000 --> 00:10:01,000
And we're going to raise a glass and let's truly bless this 11th voyage of our phenomenal podcast,

86
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:09,000
The Twisted Critics. Salud, my brothers. Salud. Salud. Oh, that's good.

87
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:16,000
All right. As always, us, Twisted Critics, try to make our guests, ourselves and you listeners break the ice,

88
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:23,000
get comfortable and have fun by using our little torturous banana peel buzzword each show that we call the WFW.

89
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:28,000
Our wrong fucking word of the week. And today is no exception.

90
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:32,000
Anytime someone slips up and says it, we all take shots. No questions asked.

91
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:38,000
Am, I believe it's your turn. We've all read our guest Darius' bio. So what kind of evil term are you thinking of?

92
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:47,000
Mu ha ha ha ha ha. Oh, yeah. My choice for the word for this week's WFW is going to be interviewed at any iteration.

93
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:54,000
Interviewed, interviewing, interview, interviews. We drink it today.

94
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:58,000
Look, y'all gonna have me messed up. I'm already I'm already too high right now.

95
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:02,000
All right. So if you guys don't mind me doing this, we're going to mix things up just a little bit today.

96
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:08,000
Usually we bring our guest in later. But being that our guest today is a hip hop historian, he can talk about reviews.

97
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:11,000
He could talk about history, talk about deaths, talk about birthdays.

98
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:19,000
And he's just an overall crazy and funny motherfucker. We'll definitely want him involved in this week's time capsule combos, the reviews and the whole nine.

99
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:24,000
So if you guys don't mind, let me actually get him on the line with us. Give me one second. Let's go.

100
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:28,000
Here he comes. Here he comes. Mr. D-Rug, you with us?

101
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:36,000
What up, what up, what up, what up, what up, my brother? What's going on, fellas? D-Rug.

102
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:42,000
Let's get your collection in the back. That is my CD collection over nine thousand nine hundred CDs when I used to DJ.

103
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:48,000
Nine thousand nine hundred. Get the fuck out of here. I'm jealous. I should have kept all my fucking CDs, man.

104
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:52,000
Let's kick the side off real quick. Let's let's let's get him acquainted with our show real quick.

105
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:56,000
Hold on, hold on. Please do what you do and introduce this brother correctly.

106
00:11:56,000 --> 00:12:00,000
Oh, I've been done this in a hot minute. This is our first special guest in season two.

107
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:09,000
So let me clear my throat. Our guest is Darius Boston, a.k.a. the Mohawk Don, a.k.a. Willie D Simpson, a.k.a.

108
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:14,000
the magnificent asshole, a.k.a. my brother D-Rug.

109
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:21,000
He is a funny and loud Leo August born baby that's from Jersey, but Orlando bred, repping the four oh seven to the fullest.

110
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:26,000
He attended Maynard Evans High School and is affiliated with all types of companies,

111
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:32,000
Madface TV, the arrogant assholes podcast, et cetera. He has big aspirations to perform at the Kia Center.

112
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:40,000
I cannot say that shit. That is not the Kia Center to me. I still call that motherfucker Orlando Arena. That's all it is.

113
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:43,000
You'd be stuttering every time you say that. I can't say that.

114
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:47,000
He is center. He's got all types of models. I've learned through the years of knowing him,

115
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:53,000
listening to him and supporting him. But my favorites are what the mama fuck and paint your eyes red.

116
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:58,000
He is a father. He is a rapper. He is a comedian. He's a podcast host. He's a hip hop historian.

117
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:07,000
And he's just an Orlando ambassador that he's the coolest guy to run into at the concession stand at a Janet Jackson concert like I did.

118
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:15,000
So, all right. So if I didn't do a good job, I'm sorry, D-Rug. I want you to do a wonderful job.

119
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:18,000
Tell the people or listeners a little bit about who you are that I might have left out.

120
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:26,000
Oh, shit. Basically, I got everything down pat. But my name D-Rug. I've been in Orlando for about 35, 36 years.

121
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:32,000
Originally from Jersey. I moved here when I was nine. I've always been into hip hop since I was four years old.

122
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:39,000
I've always been into comedy since I was four years old. I always wanted to do this all my life. So here I am.

123
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:47,000
Now, before we kick things off and jump into your 21 questions, we all got vices and we are called the twisted critics for a reason.

124
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:53,000
Whatever party favors you partaking, we definitely have a saying here. And I agree with these two.

125
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:57,000
We should put it on the shirt. And let me ask what you drinking on D-Rug?

126
00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:04,000
I'm drinking on some Stella, man. I had to leave the liquor alone, man. I've been getting I've been getting a little too crazy on that liquor, man.

127
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:11,000
So my what I'm doing is I stopped drinking hard liquor. So right now I'm just drinking some Stella's. I'm on my beer shit.

128
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:19,000
That doesn't mean he doesn't like fall victim to the WFW. If we say the WFW, he's taking a shot of some premium gas right now.

129
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:27,000
Gas and beer. So cheers, baby. Cheers. We do. We do. Chugs with beer. So I'm gonna take a chug.

130
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:34,000
I really like that. Also, Stella is one of my favorite beers. So yeah, that's my favorite beer, man. I have a feeling this is going to get fun.

131
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:42,000
Look, we already we already identifying with a lot of things. D-Rug, you are officially locked into the hot seat. So let's get started.

132
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:49,000
OK, click, click. Like myself, you were born in New Jersey and moved to Florida.

133
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:55,000
Actually, no, I wasn't born there. I was born in Germany. Oh, you're born in Germany. I did not see that in your bio, bro.

134
00:14:55,000 --> 00:15:02,000
Yeah, I was born in Germany and my son was born in Germany, too. I did not know that. That is that that's some hidden information I couldn't find.

135
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:08,000
Yes. All right. D-Rug, you were born in Germany and you moved to Florida.

136
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:14,000
Which area would you say, you know, has or had more influence on your creativity today?

137
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:20,000
Definitely, Orlando. I live like I don't remember shit about Germany. My parents was in the army.

138
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:26,000
So we moved from there to like El Paso, Texas. And we lived there when I was like two, three years old.

139
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:32,000
And we moved to Jersey when I was like three. So from like three to nine years old, I was in Jersey.

140
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:39,000
But I moved to Florida and I was like nine years old going on ten. I gained a lot in Jersey, you know what I'm saying?

141
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:44,000
But majority of me and how I am is definitely Orlando.

142
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:50,000
I understand that me being born somewhere else for like three years because of my folks been in the military.

143
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:57,000
My dad was from Cali, mom is from Baltimore, and I was born in Bangor, Maine. Like I always hear people say,

144
00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:01,000
oh, your social security number is in a Baltimore one. Yeah, no, it's not.

145
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:08,000
But that the exact reason that you moved from Germany to Jersey was the fact that your folks were in the military.

146
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:14,000
So I understand that. Yes. So you mentioned in your bio growing up and kind of being a spoiled jit.

147
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:20,000
Explain your childhood a bit for us. And would you say that you are more like your mom or more like your dad?

148
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:28,000
I would say we probably was middle class. My mom took care of me and my sister. I had everything when I was a kid.

149
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:33,000
I grew up with two turntables in the mic. My dad was a DJ, but my mom was the music collector.

150
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:39,000
So I got a lot of that from my mom. And I grew up right when hip hop was bubbling.

151
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:46,000
So I was like four years old when I first heard Fat Boys, Jailhouse Rap. That was the first rap shit.

152
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:53,000
I was like, oh, what is this? You know what I'm saying? And one thing my mom always did, if we had like a hobby or something we like,

153
00:16:53,000 --> 00:17:02,000
she always got it for us. So I was into music heavy. So from like four on, I always she'd go buy vinyl.

154
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:07,000
I don't know if you remember the vinyls back in the days. My mom used to go buy vinyl every Saturday for my dad.

155
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:11,000
You know what I'm saying? And whatever she go buy, she'd let me grab something.

156
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:16,000
And my first hit was Michael Jackson and Fat Boys. You know what I'm saying?

157
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:25,000
I feel like I'm talking to myself right now. Wow. This is crazy. We're exactly the same, man. I swear to God. Please continue.

158
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:34,000
My love for hip hop grew from there. Watching Fat Boys. And then like when I first seen LL Cool J, that's when I knew it was like, okay, this is it.

159
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:42,000
This is it. I want to dress like this. I want to talk like this. I want to whatever this hip hop thing is, I want to do this.

160
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:48,000
And from that point, it's just been the number one thing that I learned and studied. Like, you know what I'm saying?

161
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:57,000
I did hip hop more than anything. I play with toys and things like that. But as the years progressed on and on and on, I got more and more and more into hip hop.

162
00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:08,000
So by the time I was like by the time I was 12, I was full hip hop. It was on TV, raps and was rap city. It was whatever hip hop documentary was out, whatever new album was out, whatever new sources out.

163
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:17,000
Like everything was just hip hop, hip hop, hip hop. Rob, I'm trying to picture him throwing out all his other sneakers and just keeping the Adidas. That's all I'm picturing right now.

164
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:25,000
All right, Mr. Boston, Mr. Darius, aka D-Rug. Give us the story of where that stage name came from and what the hell does it mean, actually?

165
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:31,000
It means drug. At first, it used to be D-Rug. So we shortened that bitch to D-Rug.

166
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:35,000
I used to, when I used to freestyle, we sat on freestyle battles back in school and shit.

167
00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:41,000
Motherfuckers used to be like, damn, bro, you got me hooked. Like, you got me hooked when you said this, this and this.

168
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:47,000
Because I was always good at just freestyling the whole song. So we was out having like freestyle battles or whatever.

169
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:55,000
I was good at making a hook and making a topic for the song. And my hooks was always potent.

170
00:18:55,000 --> 00:19:01,000
So motherfuckers always say, them shit's like drugs, man. So I shortened the drugs for D-Rug. So it means drug.

171
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:04,000
Did you come up with that yourself or did someone give it to you?

172
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:10,000
I'm like both. I want to say both because like I said, it was D-Rug at first. You know what I'm saying?

173
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:18,000
Everybody's saying I was hooking them with that. I kind of got the idea from that and I used it myself.

174
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:21,000
I turned it into it. So yeah, I'll say both.

175
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:27,000
Nice, man. That's what's up. It sounds like you hold it down for Orlando. I got two questions.

176
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:28,000
Yes, sir.

177
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:30,000
You like the magic? Your magic?

178
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:34,000
I've been a fan since goddamn Reggie Thiers was there.

179
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:42,000
And how have you personally seen the Orlando slash Central Florida music scene change since living there?

180
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:48,000
Oh, yeah, definitely, man. Definitely changed. I jumped in the game around 99, like professionally wise.

181
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:54,000
You know what I'm saying? So from 99 to 2024 is a total big difference.

182
00:19:54,000 --> 00:20:00,000
There's a whole way they record the music. There's a whole different way they listen to the music.

183
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:04,000
There's a whole other way they do the video. All this shit changed. You know what I'm saying?

184
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:07,000
So I've definitely seen a change in it.

185
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:15,000
Talk a little bit about what the hell's going on downtown Orlando and I'm seeing all these RIP clubs seeing things going on on my social media.

186
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:18,000
Oh, shit, man. They're closing down all the motherfucking clubs, man.

187
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:19,000
Yep.

188
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:21,000
Get them niggas ass out of there.

189
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:23,000
I've seen a lot. You've been here a lot longer than I have.

190
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:30,000
But in the last 14 years, the Central Florida scene has changed so damn much and it hurts. It chops us at the knees for damn sure.

191
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:34,000
Yeah, it definitely do, man. But one thing about me, I've just learned how to adapt.

192
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:37,000
I still used to put my face in the place, you know what I'm saying?

193
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:44,000
Because at the end of the day, I still like to record and put out music just because I just got the fan base where I could do it.

194
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:52,000
I don't have an extremely large fan base, but I have a large enough fan base that keeps me going to keep a little extra money in my pocket.

195
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:54,000
So, you know, I got to keep my face in the place.

196
00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:58,000
And plus, you know, all the jits now, they call me Unc now, you know what I'm saying?

197
00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:01,000
I'm like, I'm Unc of the scene now, you know what I'm saying?

198
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:07,000
I go live on TikTok Freestyle just like you said, Unc killin' me.

199
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,000
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

200
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:16,000
Do you have any significant philosophies or mottos that gets you through life's challenges?

201
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:27,000
Be careful who you watch who you burn, man. You know, try not to burn people because you never know when you're going to see their ass when you're coming down, especially in this music business, man.

202
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:30,000
It could be a motherfucker you step on or talk shit about.

203
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:35,000
And the way these shit going these days, man, the weirdest motherfuckers blow up.

204
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,000
You know what I'm saying?

205
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:41,000
Like it's to the point now that I don't even tell people they trash no more when they give me their shit.

206
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:43,000
You know what I'm saying? They give me their shit.

207
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:53,000
I'm like, what you think? You know, I try not to tell them they trash or anything like that because like I said, especially these days, you never know who's the next star.

208
00:21:53,000 --> 00:22:01,000
You know what I'm saying? So one of my things I keep in life is, man, just be careful who the bridges you want to burn with because you never know when you got to cross the motherfuckers again.

209
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:11,000
Outside of anything music or entertainment related, if I was to ask the four year old or six year old Jit version of Darius, what other profession would he want to be? What would that be?

210
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,000
Wrestling. I wish I was a wrestler.

211
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:15,000
What?

212
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:18,000
I was a big ass wrestling fan, man. Big, big wrestling fan.

213
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:21,000
See, I got the whole Ric Flair woo tang going on.

214
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:29,000
Yeah, I was I was from like 80, 84 to the year 2001. Maybe I was a big wrestling fan.

215
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:38,000
All right, D-Rug, what got you into doing comedy professionally and what comedian growing up influenced you the most?

216
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:52,000
Definitely Eddie Murphy. The first time I seen Delirious, I was five. My dad had the vinyl for it. I actually heard the Delirious before I seen it, but I just remember Delirious and Raw.

217
00:22:52,000 --> 00:23:01,000
My mom and them watching that shit, they told us to go in the room. So I'm just like, what the fuck? Why we got to go in the room? So, you know, I'm peeking over the wall and they all laughing and shit.

218
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:12,000
And I just hear Eddie Murphy just saying all these cool ass cuss words. I knew right then and there I wanted to do that because I used to take his jokes and go recite them back at school.

219
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:19,000
You know what I'm saying? I'm in the second, third grade, but I know Eddie Murphy, Delirious by heart. Like, so, you know, I knew all the cuss words and everything.

220
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:22,000
I mean, I know most of that too. I know most of that shit too.

221
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:28,000
I know what I'm saying. Imagine being in the second and third grade reciting this shit for everybody in the class. They like, what the fuck?

222
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:35,000
Like, I always love that reaction. You know what I'm saying? Ice cream man, ice cream man. Yeah. All that shit.

223
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:42,000
I used to know all that shit by heart and I'd go back to school and recite it for everybody. And I used to just love the attention I got.

224
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:50,000
Like, I'm a Leo man, so, you know, I'm a big attention seeker. At first, I didn't think it was something I wanted to do for real, for real.

225
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:58,000
I just always been a naturally funny kid. Like, I was like the class clown in school. Like, I was the biggest class clown in school.

226
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:05,000
Like, I just love getting attention. Like, I was one of them kids that if we in class, it can't be quiet for longer than five minutes.

227
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:13,000
I got to say something. I got to do something. I'm going to fart in that bitch. I'm going to throw a pencil. You know what I'm saying? I was one of them kids. So, you know what I mean?

228
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:18,000
I swear, like, I feel like I'm talking to myself, man. It's crazy. I swear. We got everything in common, man.

229
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:30,000
Even when I was, you know, I grew up in Jersey, too. In Pasek. My father lives in Point Pleasant. I moved to Miami. Moved to Miami back and forth when I was three until I was nine, too. Same shit.

230
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:33,000
I was nine years old when I moved down here, like, for good. Never moved back to Jersey.

231
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:36,000
Yeah. I'm from New Brunswick and Plainfield.

232
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:42,000
I love wrestling, too, dawg. Like, I grew up. So, you tell me this. I'm like, I want to have a match with D-Rug right quick.

233
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:48,000
Nah, I can't wrestle now, man. We can play PlayStation or something.

234
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:52,000
Oh, man. I got PlayStation, too. I'm telling you, we talking to each other. You are a twin, bro.

235
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:53,000
Yeah.

236
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:55,000
I'm over here vibing, man.

237
00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:59,000
I did not know that about you. We all in this room love wrestling.

238
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:08,000
Yeah. Like, I was a big, big wrestling fan. Like, big wrestling fan. I had toys. Like, I was a Hulk Hogan fan. Like, that's what made me watch wrestling was Hulk Hogan.

239
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:10,000
Did you eat your vitamins, man?

240
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:19,000
Man, I had the vitamins, bro. I just put a reel up about, remember them old school Halloween costumes with the plastic and the damn plastic mask with the eyeballs cut out?

241
00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:20,000
Yeah.

242
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:23,000
I had a Hulk Hogan one, you know what I'm saying?

243
00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:32,000
And I like, like, my mom bought me, like, Hulk Hogan and everything, but she was always like, why you don't like some of the black guys? So, that's where my love for junkyard dawg come in.

244
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:38,000
I had the junkyard dog toy. You know, man, you said you had the toy. Remember, Hogan had, like, the set to fight, you know what I'm saying?

245
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:41,000
Hell yeah, that motherfucker didn't move, them damn rubbers.

246
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:45,000
We used to throw them bitches off the building, just watching them bounce.

247
00:25:45,000 --> 00:26:00,000
So, in your music, you have this whole 70s, 80s, playa pimps style going on. So, when we speak about women, I want to know two things. What's an absolute relationship deal breaker for you? And what's the nuttiest thing that you've done for love?

248
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:05,000
The deal breaker is you call the police on me.

249
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:09,000
Call the police on me, bitch, we through.

250
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:12,000
And what you say, the craziest thing I've did for love?

251
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:14,000
Yeah, that you've done for love.

252
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:16,000
Oh, shit.

253
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:20,000
All the females he's ever been with are listening to this now.

254
00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:22,000
You're gonna talk about me?

255
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:26,000
Oh, shit, I was with a bitch for nine months, was faking like she was pregnant.

256
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:29,000
Holy shit, boss. That'd be a deal breaker for me.

257
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:30,000
Damn.

258
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:32,000
I think that's probably the craziest shit.

259
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:33,000
Oh my goodness, man.

260
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:36,000
I was like, I didn't know. So, you know what I mean?

261
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:40,000
Yeah, when I sit and think about it now, yeah, it was fucking crazy.

262
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:48,000
We have something else in common that you and I have in common. And actually, Rob too, we're being 40 plus. None of us are some spring chickens in here, right?

263
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:56,000
In trying to break out in the modern rap market that you are trying to do right now, do you see one clear advantage and one clear disadvantage that we have at this age of ours?

264
00:26:56,000 --> 00:27:06,000
The clear advantage we have is we know our shit. The disadvantage we have is that the generation now don't respect OGs.

265
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:12,000
They think that we over a certain age that we shouldn't do it no more. And I just think, you know, that's bullshit.

266
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:15,000
You know what I'm saying? And this is what it is.

267
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:22,000
I thousand percent agree with you. We're the only, only genre that's out there that has a time limit.

268
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:27,000
Like you got rockers that can tour in their 70s right now and still selling out arenas.

269
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:32,000
Fucking Ozzy Osbourne can't even move no more. And he sets out every fucking time he goes out.

270
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:37,000
We definitely, we've been talking about that. Like I'm working at MediaBase.

271
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:40,000
We're kind of structured to what the formats that people send to radio.

272
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:47,000
And it's weird because what's blowing up for R&B is creating the adult R&B contemporary format for radio stations.

273
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:53,000
And I mean, you got people like Charlie Wilson that have five, six, seven number one hits per year.

274
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:58,000
Some people, the young people would be like, he still makes music? And like, yeah, the last three years.

275
00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:04,000
I've just seen Charlie Wilson this year at Funkfest. I didn't get a chance to interview him, but.

276
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:08,000
Oopsie, oopsie, oopsie, oopsie. Oh, fuck.

277
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:09,000
Oh, what?

278
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:10,000
Got it already.

279
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:11,000
Oh, he said it.

280
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:13,000
Got it already. All fucking ready.

281
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:15,000
Finally. God damn.

282
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:18,000
All right. So, so, so, so.

283
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:20,000
Did I hit the Peewee Wormwood word?

284
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:26,000
D-Rug, D-Rug, you got the WFW. The word is any iteration of interview.

285
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:29,000
Interviewing, interviewed, interviews, interview.

286
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:32,000
So anytime we say that, we all got to take a shot of something.

287
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:33,000
So.

288
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:36,000
Y'all motherfuckers gonna be drunk because you know that's what I do too. I interview people.

289
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:42,000
All right. So, yeah. All right. So I just know to keep. I ain't gonna get y'all too fucked up tonight.

290
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:45,000
So here we go. I'm gonna throw it back.

291
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:47,000
It's got to be a chug though.

292
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:48,000
Salud. Salud, my brother.

293
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:50,000
Salud, boys.

294
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:54,000
I'm gonna buy you some damn mugs and shot glasses. That's what I'm gonna do.

295
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,000
You almost made me spit that shit out, bro.

296
00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:58,000
I want to spit mine out.

297
00:28:58,000 --> 00:28:59,000
Oh, fuck.

298
00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:02,000
So Am spits.

299
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:05,000
Hey, hey, Doc. Doc. Doc. Where the dog at?

300
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:07,000
I like this interview already. This shit gonna be cool.

301
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:10,000
We're gonna get stupid.

302
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:13,000
Ready? All right.

303
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:23,000
Of all of your releases, which is statistically your most successful song versus what's your most meaningful or important song to you?

304
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:31,000
My most successful song that I still get booked for and it's like a song that I never care for is called Beat That Pussy Down.

305
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:33,000
Oh, hell yeah. Man, I've been listening to it.

306
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:35,000
Yo, that song is off the charts.

307
00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:37,000
Shout out to Tom and Dan.

308
00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:42,000
If y'all know who Tom and Dan is, one of the biggest podcast guys in Orlando, they're worldwide.

309
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:48,000
But the first time I ever been on a podcast was with them and I never understood like what the fuck is this?

310
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:52,000
We talking about 12, 13 years ago, joining a community.

311
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:57,000
You know, I adapted to their fans and their fans welcomed me in with open arms.

312
00:29:57,000 --> 00:30:03,000
And one song that they used to like off my Mohawk Dawn album was this song called Beat The Pussy Down.

313
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:07,000
And it was like one of my outrageous songs that we just having fun on.

314
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:12,000
And I got to perform that shit in front of a big ass concert they had.

315
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:18,000
They had like a 10 year anniversary and it was over with five, six thousand people at a street.

316
00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:21,000
They had shut down the street and I performed that fucking song.

317
00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:24,000
And the motherfuckers song that shit, Word for fucking Word.

318
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:25,000
I love that.

319
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:28,000
They sung the shit better than I did.

320
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:31,000
But that's my most probably successful song.

321
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:35,000
One of my most meaningful songs is a song I got called Me and My Swisher.

322
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:40,000
And it's about just at the time it was just about it was just me and my swisher.

323
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:43,000
It was me and my swisher and my problems I was going with.

324
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:46,000
And I just wrote all that shit down on the run.

325
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:49,000
It's on YouTube if you want to check the video for that shit.

326
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:54,000
But that's one of my favorite meaningful songs that I was I was actually serious on.

327
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:56,000
That's on Magnificent Asshole One, right?

328
00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:57,000
Yes. Yes.

329
00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:59,000
It's on Magnificent Asshole One.

330
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:02,000
I've been bumping it, bro. I've been bumping it.

331
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:03,000
I'm here in Southeast Asia.

332
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:04,000
It's a D-Rug, dog.

333
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:06,000
Nobody, they don't.

334
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:08,000
I spread love out here, baby.

335
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:10,000
I appreciate that, man.

336
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:13,000
We might have to like link that A&R.

337
00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:15,000
I'm listening to all of them, homie.

338
00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:17,000
I appreciate that, bro. I appreciate that.

339
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:21,000
And I got the second best collection of CDs.

340
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:26,000
Thank you. Thank you.

341
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:32,000
Have any of your music goals changed dramatically from where you started until now?

342
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:34,000
It definitely changed dramatically.

343
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:38,000
When I first started, I wanted to be the baddest rapper ever.

344
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:42,000
You know what I'm saying? I was that kid that just, oh, you spit. You spit.

345
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:43,000
Check this out.

346
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:45,000
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

347
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:46,000
And you know what I'm saying?

348
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:50,000
And I was on every scene, every open mic, every this, every that.

349
00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:53,000
Now it's like, I'm cool.

350
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:55,000
I just do it for the fuck of it now.

351
00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:56,000
You know what I'm saying?

352
00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:58,000
It definitely, definitely changed dramatically.

353
00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:00,000
I don't even have a goal for the music no more.

354
00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:04,000
Right now, the music is just, I just do it because I got a studio in my house.

355
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:05,000
You know what I'm saying?

356
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:06,000
You got love for it.

357
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:09,000
Yes, all day. All day. It's totally the love, man.

358
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:11,000
I tell the Jets all the time, man.

359
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:13,000
If you don't love this shit, get out of it.

360
00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:15,000
That's it. Fuck it.

361
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:18,000
Some people don't love it and just do it for money.

362
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:19,000
I respect it.

363
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:21,000
Yeah, me too. But there ain't no money in this shit no more.

364
00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:23,000
I do this shit because I love it, man.

365
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:25,000
Yeah, I love to do this shit. I love to create songs.

366
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:27,000
Freestyle to be in the crowd of people. You want to freestyle? Let's go.

367
00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:29,000
We're going to talk about what's going on right here.

368
00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:31,000
I love that shit, dawg.

369
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:33,000
I still do that shit.

370
00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:38,000
Especially going back to your, me and my Swisher, like, I think AM and I kind of really relate to that

371
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:40,000
because to us, music is therapeutic.

372
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:44,000
It's not for buzz. It's not for females. It's not for sales.

373
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:48,000
So when you said that, I was like, okay, I could see where he came from, his thinking with that.

374
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:53,000
It's definitely, this was a little bit more of your therapeutic music in your whole discography.

375
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:59,000
Anyway, what's crazy about this song is at the time, I was staying with my partners.

376
00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:04,000
As a matter of fact, my boy Lee Nicky who made the beat and his brother Mills,

377
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:07,000
we've been friends since we was 10 years old.

378
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:10,000
They've been on this hip hop journey with me too.

379
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:14,000
But that particular day, they locked me in the studio.

380
00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:18,000
You know what I'm saying? They went out that night.

381
00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:20,000
They talked shit to me and everything.

382
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:22,000
Motherfucker, you stay your ass here tonight.

383
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:24,000
Finish some songs because they felt I was bullshitting.

384
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:30,000
This is when we was making, because actually that song was on the Mohawk Don 2 first.

385
00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:32,000
Oh, wow.

386
00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:37,000
They was on my ass. They were saying I was slacking or whatever punishment they had for me.

387
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:41,000
That was the punishment was to lock me in the fucking studio while they went out.

388
00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:44,000
Yeah, bitch, we're going to have fun. You can actually do work.

389
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:47,000
Yeah. I was just like, fuck it.

390
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:50,000
That's what happened. That came out.

391
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:56,000
When they came back, the excitement, when your dogs come in, hit some shit,

392
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:58,000
and they'd be like, hell yeah.

393
00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:03,000
The excitement I got watching them, yeah, I showed y'all motherfuckers.

394
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:05,000
You know what I'm saying?

395
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:09,000
Switching gears from podcasts, mad face TV, arrogant assholes,

396
00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:11,000
and all the other platforms you've been on.

397
00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:13,000
I've watched you. You've interviewed.

398
00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:15,000
Oopsie, oopsie, oopsie.

399
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:16,000
Oh, fuck.

400
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:17,000
Oh, fuck.

401
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:18,000
Good job, Doc.

402
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:19,000
Oh, let's go.

403
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:21,000
I just threw myself.

404
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:24,000
Y'all going to say that I word a lot, man.

405
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:26,000
That's a big part of me, though.

406
00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:29,000
That's a big part of me is the I word.

407
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:32,000
It's written in this motherfucker.

408
00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:35,000
Hold on, we shotting again, we chugging again.

409
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:39,000
AMA lion, though, I wrote this shit and I'm fucking myself up.

410
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:42,000
Doc, and it's crazy because I'm looking at the fucking screen.

411
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:44,000
I'm like, what the fuck? Oh, no, it is right there.

412
00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:46,000
And it's right there.

413
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:47,000
Good luck.

414
00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:48,000
Salud.

415
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:49,000
Salud.

416
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:52,000
All right, I've watched you ask questions to people.

417
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:55,000
Some of the big dogs that you and I respect that I grew up on.

418
00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:58,000
So I want you to spill a little bit tea for us.

419
00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:02,000
Was there anyone in particular that was cooler or more humble than you expected?

420
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:06,000
And then vice versa, was there anyone who rubbed you the wrong way or was unexpectedly weird?

421
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:08,000
Definitely Plies, man.

422
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:11,000
Plies definitely one that I didn't expect.

423
00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:17,000
This is around the time when the Ozone magazine was doing the Ozone Awards.

424
00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:20,000
And we was the media for the Ozone magazine.

425
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:24,000
And in the media room, like back in the days when they do the media rooms,

426
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:29,000
when you go inside the media room, it's different little booths you can go to and get I word.

427
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:30,000
You know what I'm saying?

428
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:32,000
Our tent was at the end.

429
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:34,000
It was all the way at the end of the door.

430
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:37,000
We were the last ones to get I.

431
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:39,000
Like, you know what I'm saying?

432
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:44,000
And you know, you had BET, you had Channel 9 News, you had Vibe magazine.

433
00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:50,000
So they just walking around these tents and stuff to get I.

434
00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:52,000
And I'm the last one.

435
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:56,000
And at the time, Plies, this is before Plies blew up.

436
00:35:56,000 --> 00:36:00,000
He was hot at this time, but nobody knew what he looked like.

437
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:02,000
We would just listen to the mix tape and shit.

438
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:06,000
And at the time, the mix tape was like super gangster.

439
00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:10,000
So we think he this big ass motherfucking super killer.

440
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:11,000
You know what I'm saying?

441
00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:15,000
But he walks in and everybody like, oh, Plies is here. Plies is here.

442
00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:19,000
And we had A&R to come go get everybody to bring them to the show.

443
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:22,000
And I'm looking like, that's Plies?

444
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:24,000
That motherfucker's like five feet.

445
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:26,000
Like, he looks cool.

446
00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:28,000
One thing I noticed, they wouldn't let him.

447
00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:29,000
He was drinking.

448
00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:32,000
They had like him and his boys had some Hennessy or whatever.

449
00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:36,000
And he was drinking and they wouldn't let him drink while he was interviewing.

450
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:38,000
Oopsie, oopsie, oopsie.

451
00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:39,000
Oh, fuck.

452
00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:40,000
Oh, shit.

453
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:41,000
Fuck.

454
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:42,000
What's wrong?

455
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:44,000
I love you.

456
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:48,000
If I don't make it to the end of this podcast, I love y'all.

457
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:49,000
Besitos.

458
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:50,000
God damn it.

459
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:53,000
That's what I said.

460
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:54,000
That's going to be a hard word.

461
00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:56,000
Hey, I love you, bro.

462
00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:57,000
All right.

463
00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:59,000
I told you.

464
00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:02,000
Last time I woke up on the roof.

465
00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:03,000
They was eyeing him.

466
00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:04,000
You know what I'm saying?

467
00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:07,000
The whole time they was eyeing him.

468
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:09,000
Not that eyeing, but you know, microphone.

469
00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:10,000
Asking him questions.

470
00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:11,000
Oh, no, I know.

471
00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:12,000
I'm fucking with you.

472
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:16,000
So they wouldn't let him drink while he was on these shows.

473
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:20,000
But when he came to my show, my show was uncensored.

474
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:23,000
You can say what the fuck you want to say, do what the fuck you want to do.

475
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:29,000
And the first thing I told him before I eyed him, I was like, man, bring your drink over,

476
00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:30,000
cuz you can drink.

477
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:31,000
Like, you know what I'm saying?

478
00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:32,000
He was like, what?

479
00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:34,000
And from that point, we built the relationship.

480
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:35,000
He was cool as fuck.

481
00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:38,000
Like, he gave me all kind of game.

482
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:39,000
And he was like so intelligent.

483
00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:45,000
Because you know, when you eye a lot of these rappers, they give you that, man, you know

484
00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:46,000
what I'm talking about?

485
00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:48,000
You know what I'm saying?

486
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:51,000
He was real, like, intelligent, like, you know what I'm saying?

487
00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:52,000
And I'm like, what the fuck?

488
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:55,000
This ain't the Ply's I listen to in the car.

489
00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:56,000
Like, you know what I'm saying?

490
00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:57,000
So he ended up being real cool.

491
00:37:57,000 --> 00:38:01,000
So Darius, before you go into the negative, I share a story with these guys all the time.

492
00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:05,000
So the Tampa Music Conference, it's an annual conference in Tampa.

493
00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:06,000
We go into it.

494
00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:10,000
I went to it in 2002 when I was a Jit and just started rapping.

495
00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:12,000
And then later years, I actually paneled it.

496
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:15,000
So I brought my cousin Tony Ganja from New York.

497
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:19,000
This was right before Ply's dropped What You Hating On.

498
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:21,000
So this is like pre-fame, pre-mixed tape even.

499
00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:23,000
Oh, no, he was hot around that time.

500
00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:24,000
No, this is pre that.

501
00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:27,000
Oh, yeah, before that was before the first album though.

502
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:28,000
Yes, yes, yes.

503
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:30,000
Yeah, What You Hating On wasn't even on the first album.

504
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:32,000
Put it like this, that's around the same time I met him.

505
00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:37,000
Funny thing was, as a DJ, I support anything that's in Florida.

506
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:38,000
I love T-Pain.

507
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:40,000
I loved anything that came out of the Florida area.

508
00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:43,000
I had never heard Ply's in my life, ever.

509
00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:44,000
What?

510
00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:46,000
Never heard him in West Palm, never heard him in Boca Raton,

511
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:47,000
never heard him in Miami.

512
00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:48,000
What?

513
00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:49,000
Never.

514
00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:50,000
All I did was to risk Carlton.

515
00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:51,000
What?

516
00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:53,000
No, no, Rob, all that stuff's after What You Hating On.

517
00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:54,000
So that's funny.

518
00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:58,000
We, let me tell you, Ply's fucked Orlando up, bro.

519
00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:01,000
So this was pre-36 Ounces too, by the way.

520
00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:05,000
So what's crazy was, as a DJ, I saw these flyers going around.

521
00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:07,000
Now, the Tampa Music Conference, you got to actually dress up.

522
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:11,000
You got to be at least, you know, don't be tied, but you can at least go to dress shirt.

523
00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:15,000
Ply's, what was crazy with him was, I thought his name was Piles.

524
00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:20,000
Like no one, no one in that Tampa knew who the fuck he was.

525
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:21,000
It was crazy.

526
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:22,000
He lived out there.

527
00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:23,000
I think he lived out in Tampa.

528
00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:24,000
He's from Fort Myers.

529
00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:25,000
He's from Fort Myers.

530
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:27,000
No, he's from Fort Myers, but he lived in Tampa.

531
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:28,000
It was crazy.

532
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:29,000
So check this shit out, right?

533
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:35,000
So we were talking about radio and people not having the registrations to get there and stuff.

534
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:39,000
So after the first, after that dinner time, there's like an after party event,

535
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:42,000
an after after party event, after after after party event.

536
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:45,000
We did the after party event and Tony and I, first of all, Tony didn't want to spend money.

537
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:50,000
So we were like, he's like, we got leftovers from, I think everyone went to macaroni grill.

538
00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:52,000
So like we all got to sit and eat dinner.

539
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:59,000
So he's like, yo, I don't know what you're thinking of, but can we just go back, change out of these dress clothes and like eat our leftovers?

540
00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:00,000
I'm like, fuck yeah.

541
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:03,000
I don't want to spend like, I don't want to pay for parking and bullshit like that.

542
00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:07,000
So we go back, we change out of our dress clothes, wear basketball shorts.

543
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:10,000
The microwave, they had like a whole lobby kitchen area.

544
00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:15,000
We go down there and Plies and his boys are down there in basketball shorts and wife beaters too.

545
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:17,000
So they did the exact same shit we did.

546
00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:19,000
They didn't care for the after after party.

547
00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:24,000
Talking to him, just like you said, he told us his real name, Al Jannad Washington.

548
00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:26,000
He didn't like, he corrected me.

549
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:28,000
It's not Piles, it's Plies.

550
00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:30,000
I'm like, what the fuck does that like?

551
00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:32,000
What's his real name, dog?

552
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:33,000
Al Jannad Washington.

553
00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:35,000
I'll never forget that.

554
00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:36,000
They call him Nod.

555
00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:38,000
I won't forget it now.

556
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:44,000
So introducing to my thugged out cousin, it's like this guy, like you said, he's actually very intelligent.

557
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:47,000
He has two different college degrees from USF in Tampa.

558
00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:50,000
So it's like he's actually intelligent.

559
00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:52,000
And my cousin was very, very like floored, impressed.

560
00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:54,000
Like this guy, he'll probably get signed.

561
00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:56,000
Like this guy will probably blow up.

562
00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:57,000
And he did, he did.

563
00:40:57,000 --> 00:41:03,000
But what's crazy is day two of that conference, when they walked in, we're there like, yo, what's up?

564
00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:04,000
What's up?

565
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:09,000
And he comes in and like he, the slang came out, the ghetto talk came out.

566
00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:12,000
And it's like, wait, where did the intelligent motherfucker come?

567
00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:13,000
Like go.

568
00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:23,000
And it's like, and the interview, the guys asking them questions, they're asking them like, you know, they even said Piles, Plies, please, Plies.

569
00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:24,000
He's like Plies.

570
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:26,000
And they're like, what does that even mean?

571
00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:27,000
Plies.

572
00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:28,000
What does that mean?

573
00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:30,000
You know, the tool that tightens things.

574
00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:32,000
No, not Plies.

575
00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:34,000
And they're like, oh, like Pliers.

576
00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:36,000
You know, I learned something new at that moment.

577
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:42,000
But just, just like you said, though, he floored me too, because he was so intelligent the night before.

578
00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:47,000
And I feel like 90 percent of that Plies persona is fake.

579
00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:49,000
Like he's an actual intelligent person.

580
00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:51,000
So that was that was one that we shared with you.

581
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:52,000
It was crazy.

582
00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:53,000
Yeah, man.

583
00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:56,000
Like I said, man, he and I was just like, what the fuck?

584
00:41:56,000 --> 00:42:00,000
Like, whoa, this is what not I did not expect this, bro.

585
00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:02,000
Like different person night and day.

586
00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:04,000
He was so cool, bro.

587
00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:06,000
But he showed me a lot of love, bro.

588
00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:07,000
He showed me a lot of love.

589
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:11,000
And then when it's because, you know, he taped his first video in Orlando.

590
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:12,000
I started with T-Pain.

591
00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:13,000
Yeah.

592
00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:14,000
He shot that in Orlando.

593
00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:17,000
He's had more videos before that, but first mainstream video.

594
00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:20,000
Yeah. The first real like the big song, like the big song.

595
00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:21,000
He shot that in Orlando.

596
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:22,000
You know what I'm saying?

597
00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:24,000
He would cross town and I pulled it up on him.

598
00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:25,000
You know what I'm saying?

599
00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:26,000
He see me at the time.

600
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:27,000
That's when I have a mohawk.

601
00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:28,000
Mohawk.

602
00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:29,000
What's up, bro?

603
00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:30,000
All right.

604
00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:32,000
So D-Rug, tell us the other side of the coin.

605
00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:34,000
I want to hear who rubbed you the wrong way.

606
00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:37,000
It was kind of like a dick to ask questions to.

607
00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:38,000
Twistler.

608
00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:39,000
What?

609
00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:40,000
Whoa.

610
00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:41,000
Twistler.

611
00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:44,000
I don't know what Twistler was going through that night.

612
00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:47,000
I'm going to put y'all in the scene right here.

613
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:48,000
We in Miami.

614
00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:50,000
We had Club Sobe.

615
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:52,000
I remember them drinks, Sobe drinks.

616
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:53,000
Remember the Sobe?

617
00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:54,000
All day.

618
00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:55,000
All right.

619
00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:58,000
So we knew his pops and his son.

620
00:42:58,000 --> 00:42:59,000
His son's name was Stax.

621
00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:08,000
And Stax had through this big ass party had Paul Wall, Little John, Abomb, JG, Twistler.

622
00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:11,000
Matter of fact, Nas even slid through that bitch.

623
00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:14,000
I ain't get to talk to Nas, but Nas slid through that bitch.

624
00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:17,000
I had everybody that I mentioned.

625
00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:21,000
Paul Wall, Mike Jones, Slim Thug, Little John.

626
00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:24,000
I did everybody but Twistler.

627
00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:28,000
Twistler was one of my favorite rappers, bro.

628
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:29,000
I love Twistler.

629
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:31,000
Even to this day, I love Twistler.

630
00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:32,000
You know what I'm saying?

631
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:38,000
And once he performed, he got off the stage and it was time for him because I had my shit.

632
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:41,000
I had my shit set up on side of the stage.

633
00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:48,000
So the way I got everybody was I get them off stage and I eye them after that.

634
00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:49,000
You know what I'm saying?

635
00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:52,000
So Twistler, I'm excited about.

636
00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:57,000
Fuck Paul Wall, not saying fuck Paul Wall, but Paul Wall, whatever.

637
00:43:57,000 --> 00:43:58,000
Cool.

638
00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:00,000
But Twistler is somebody I was a fan of.

639
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:03,000
So I was like, oh shit.

640
00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:04,000
You know what I'm saying?

641
00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:05,000
You were looking forward to it for sure.

642
00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:06,000
What?

643
00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:08,000
Twistler comes off the stage.

644
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:10,000
I'm like, yo, Twistler, what's up, man?

645
00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:11,000
Let me get that eye.

646
00:44:11,000 --> 00:44:12,000
You know what I'm saying?

647
00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:14,000
He walked past me.

648
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:17,000
He walks because the VIP was right next to us too.

649
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:20,000
It was kind of behind us.

650
00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:24,000
He sits down and at the time, you know, iPods was big.

651
00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:26,000
This is iPod era.

652
00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:30,000
This motherfucker is in the club by himself in VIP.

653
00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:31,000
He done kicked the bitches out.

654
00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:33,000
He done kicked everybody out.

655
00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:38,000
And he's in the club listening to his iPod.

656
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:40,000
And I'm talking about I'm trying to get his attention.

657
00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:42,000
I'm trying to talk to him.

658
00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:45,000
His bodyguard is like, yo, he don't want to be bothered right now.

659
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:46,000
He just want to listen to his music.

660
00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:50,000
And I'm like, listen to his music?

661
00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:51,000
He's in the motherfucking club.

662
00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:53,000
This motherfucker got on some headphones.

663
00:44:53,000 --> 00:44:54,000
What the fuck is you talking about?

664
00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:55,000
Like, you know what I'm saying?

665
00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:59,000
But you know, now that I'm older, I realized I don't know what he was going through at

666
00:44:59,000 --> 00:45:02,000
the time, but Twistler, he ignored me, bro.

667
00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:03,000
Damn, that's crazy.

668
00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:05,000
I'm with you, D-Rug.

669
00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:06,000
Fuck that.

670
00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:07,000
Like, I'm with like.

671
00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:10,000
What the fuck you doing in the club with your headphones on?

672
00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:12,000
Hey, tell me, fuck me.

673
00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:13,000
Just say fuck you or whatever.

674
00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:14,000
You know what I'm saying?

675
00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:16,000
I don't want to be bothered.

676
00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:17,000
Say it.

677
00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:18,000
You know what I'm saying?

678
00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:19,000
Don't ignore me.

679
00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:20,000
That motherfucker ignored me, bro.

680
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:21,000
Yeah, I met a lot of.

681
00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:23,000
Well, I met a couple of assholes.

682
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:25,000
Trick Daddy was an asshole too.

683
00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:26,000
Really?

684
00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:28,000
Trick Daddy was an asshole, but he's like.

685
00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:30,000
You expect that from him.

686
00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:34,000
I was doing a mixtape called Doc J Presents Dirty Dancing.

687
00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:36,000
It was a strip club mixtape.

688
00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:39,000
And he was absolutely like.

689
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:42,000
Because he kind of was getting out of fame at that moment.

690
00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:46,000
And because I'm from South Florida, I want to represent Miami Cats.

691
00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:49,000
And he submitted me like a new single and I just threw on the strip club mixtape.

692
00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:50,000
No questions asked.

693
00:45:50,000 --> 00:45:53,000
And he was super nice to me for that one.

694
00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:55,000
But yeah, I mean, I think you hit the nail on the head.

695
00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:56,000
People can have things going on.

696
00:45:56,000 --> 00:45:58,000
So, I mean, that's why I always ask that question.

697
00:45:58,000 --> 00:45:59,000
So.

698
00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:00,000
Yeah, yeah, man.

699
00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:03,000
You mentioned your early influences of Michael Jackson.

700
00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:06,000
Snoop Dogg and the Immortal 2, Pac Shakur.

701
00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:10,000
Are there any new artists today that influence your music now?

702
00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:12,000
I don't want to hear his answer for the future.

703
00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:13,000
Fuck you.

704
00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:15,000
I love you, bro.

705
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:18,000
I'm one of the biggest future fans.

706
00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:19,000
I love you.

707
00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:21,000
Yes, bro.

708
00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:22,000
I love you.

709
00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:26,000
I had a paid internship at Epic Records in the legal department.

710
00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:30,000
I don't work there anymore because I reviewed a future album wrong.

711
00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:32,000
Which one was it?

712
00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:33,000
I mean, I worked there from.

713
00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:36,000
So I got the job at MediaBase in 2018.

714
00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:38,000
So it was from 2016 to 2018.

715
00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:41,000
Whatever album came out in that window.

716
00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:44,000
And at a six stars, I gave it half a star.

717
00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:46,000
And they're like, yeah, I would have fired your ass too.

718
00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:48,000
Fuck you.

719
00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:52,000
No, but they told me that, you know, if you work here, those are one of our clients.

720
00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:53,000
So you have to do that.

721
00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:55,000
How can you give future a half a star?

722
00:46:55,000 --> 00:46:57,000
They were like, you have to give this five and a half to six stars.

723
00:46:57,000 --> 00:46:59,000
I'm like, that would be saying the album's classic.

724
00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:02,000
No, I'm going to review this the right way, respectful way.

725
00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:04,000
And they're like, then you can't review why you work here.

726
00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:05,000
And I'm like.

727
00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:08,000
Future is one of my favorite artists, bro.

728
00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:09,000
You know, I love you.

729
00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:10,000
I love you.

730
00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:11,000
But fuck you.

731
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:15,000
I love the way future records, bro.

732
00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:17,000
He don't give a fuck, bro.

733
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:20,000
He don't. He just wants him, bro.

734
00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:21,000
Well, you know what's crazy?

735
00:47:21,000 --> 00:47:24,000
I have a heartbreaking story about future.

736
00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:25,000
What's that?

737
00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:27,000
No, I'm not going to say it.

738
00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:28,000
I can't. You don't say it.

739
00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:30,000
No, you just said it.

740
00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:32,000
We got sound effects I can do.

741
00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:34,000
I'll tell you some real shit.

742
00:47:34,000 --> 00:47:35,000
I can't.

743
00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:37,000
D-Rod gets the exclusive shit from us.

744
00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:38,000
Okay. So why is this?

745
00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:40,000
So I'm in a restaurant, right?

746
00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:42,000
And there's a party in the restaurant.

747
00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:46,000
And in this party is a it's an employee party sort of thing.

748
00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:47,000
Futures, people's.

749
00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:52,000
So everybody got champagne glasses, but they empty.

750
00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:55,000
Future says, no, don't give him champagne.

751
00:47:55,000 --> 00:47:56,000
Give him ginger ale.

752
00:47:56,000 --> 00:47:58,000
God damn.

753
00:47:58,000 --> 00:47:59,000
Sensational.

754
00:47:59,000 --> 00:48:01,000
He gave everybody ginger ale.

755
00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:04,000
And made them believe it was champagne.

756
00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:05,000
Oh my God.

757
00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:07,000
This is thinking was.

758
00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:08,000
They think it was champagne.

759
00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:10,000
D-Rod, this is what he does to y'all.

760
00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:13,000
He hypnotizes you with the fucking auto tune.

761
00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:16,000
This is a real street report.

762
00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:17,000
I was there.

763
00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:19,000
I put my blood on that.

764
00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:20,000
That's ridiculous.

765
00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:23,000
I can see Rob working there and be like as Smollier,

766
00:48:23,000 --> 00:48:25,000
like I would recommend this type of champagne.

767
00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:26,000
He's like, no, I want ginger ale.

768
00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:28,000
He says, no.

769
00:48:28,000 --> 00:48:30,000
Ginger ale, please.

770
00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:31,000
I'm sorry.

771
00:48:31,000 --> 00:48:35,000
So, so future, if you hear me, I don't fucking hate your music, but.

772
00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:39,000
So D-Rod, D-Rod, this is that 9% of music that you and I will never see.

773
00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:41,000
I die on 91%.

774
00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:44,000
You and I are like perfectly on par with it, but not this 9%.

775
00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:46,000
So I love, I love future, man.

776
00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:48,000
I'm a big future fan, bro.

777
00:48:48,000 --> 00:48:49,000
Future.

778
00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:51,000
But the ginger ale, the ginger ale story is true.

779
00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:52,000
That's crazy.

780
00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:54,000
That's crazy to me.

781
00:48:54,000 --> 00:48:56,000
Hey, Amazon, you my brother.

782
00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:57,000
I got it.

783
00:48:57,000 --> 00:48:58,000
I'm fucked up.

784
00:48:58,000 --> 00:49:00,000
I ain't even, we ain't even nowhere near.

785
00:49:00,000 --> 00:49:03,000
We're not even past the interview yet.

786
00:49:03,000 --> 00:49:04,000
Oh, fuck.

787
00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:06,000
Oopsie, oopsie, oopsie.

788
00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:07,000
Oh, fuck.

789
00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:08,000
Damn it.

790
00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:09,000
See, he did that shit on purpose.

791
00:49:09,000 --> 00:49:11,000
This is the best show ever.

792
00:49:11,000 --> 00:49:12,000
Dude.

793
00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:13,000
D-Rod.

794
00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:14,000
How many times do I have to say that?

795
00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:15,000
That shit on purpose right there.

796
00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:16,000
Rob, Rob.

797
00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:17,000
Everybody got to take the swigs.

798
00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:18,000
Please.

799
00:49:18,000 --> 00:49:19,000
Damn.

800
00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:21,000
I'm not that, I'm not that fucked up yet.

801
00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:22,000
I'm fucked with Rob, man.

802
00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:23,000
I'm fucked with Rob.

803
00:49:23,000 --> 00:49:24,000
Hey, bro.

804
00:49:24,000 --> 00:49:25,000
Hey, I love you, bro.

805
00:49:25,000 --> 00:49:26,000
I've been telling your shit for three weeks.

806
00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:27,000
I'm fucked with Rob, man.

807
00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:28,000
Come see me in South Beach, dog.

808
00:49:28,000 --> 00:49:29,000
I'll holler at you when I go to Orlando.

809
00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:30,000
I'm in South Beach all day.

810
00:49:30,000 --> 00:49:31,000
Definitely, definitely.

811
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:32,000
We definitely going to do that, bro.

812
00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:33,000
I'll fucks with your vibe, bro.

813
00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:34,000
Hey, nobody can fuck with me out here, baby.

814
00:49:34,000 --> 00:49:35,000
Look, come on, see me.

815
00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:36,000
Please come see me.

816
00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:37,000
He gets the people going.

817
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:38,000
He does.

818
00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:39,000
Look, we love Rob.

819
00:49:39,000 --> 00:49:40,000
But you know something?

820
00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:41,000
This is why I had to stop.

821
00:49:41,000 --> 00:49:42,000
I love y'all more.

822
00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:43,000
I had to stop drinking hard liquor last week, bro.

823
00:49:43,000 --> 00:49:44,000
It's okay to chug.

824
00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:45,000
We like to chug.

825
00:49:45,000 --> 00:49:46,000
I like to chug.

826
00:49:46,000 --> 00:49:47,000
I got crazy, bro.

827
00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:48,000
I fell on my fucking face and like cut my nose up.

828
00:49:48,000 --> 00:49:49,000
Y'all can't see no more.

829
00:49:49,000 --> 00:50:01,560
D-Rud, when you posted that post that you were done for good, my heart fell from my chest

830
00:50:01,560 --> 00:50:02,560
to my dick.

831
00:50:02,560 --> 00:50:03,560
A week before the show.

832
00:50:03,560 --> 00:50:04,560
Yeah.

833
00:50:04,560 --> 00:50:05,560
Hey, no, Doc called me.

834
00:50:05,560 --> 00:50:06,560
Doc was like, hey, man.

835
00:50:06,560 --> 00:50:07,560
He called me.

836
00:50:07,560 --> 00:50:08,560
You're not drinking no more?

837
00:50:08,560 --> 00:50:09,560
And I'm like, yeah, I'm drinking beer.

838
00:50:09,560 --> 00:50:10,560
Why?

839
00:50:10,560 --> 00:50:11,560
Wait one more week.

840
00:50:11,560 --> 00:50:12,560
I'm like, you know we got the show coming up.

841
00:50:12,560 --> 00:50:13,560
He said it in the comments and everything.

842
00:50:13,560 --> 00:50:14,560
Hey, man, you know we got the show coming up.

843
00:50:14,560 --> 00:50:15,560
I'm like, what?

844
00:50:15,560 --> 00:50:16,560
I'm like, what?

845
00:50:16,560 --> 00:50:17,560
I'm like, what?

846
00:50:17,560 --> 00:50:18,560
I'm like, what?

847
00:50:18,560 --> 00:50:19,560
I was worried.

848
00:50:19,560 --> 00:50:20,560
I was twisted.

849
00:50:20,560 --> 00:50:21,560
I was like messed up.

850
00:50:21,560 --> 00:50:22,560
I was like, what are you doing to me, D-Rud?

851
00:50:22,560 --> 00:50:23,560
He called me the same way.

852
00:50:23,560 --> 00:50:24,560
Yo, Doc called me.

853
00:50:24,560 --> 00:50:25,560
He's like, yo, I don't think D-Rud's drinking, bro.

854
00:50:25,560 --> 00:50:26,560
No, I had to stop drinking that liquor, bro.

855
00:50:26,560 --> 00:50:27,560
I was getting too fucking crazy on that tequila, man.

856
00:50:27,560 --> 00:50:28,560
I hear you.

857
00:50:28,560 --> 00:50:29,560
I hear you.

858
00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:46,160
As writers ourselves, I love Doc and Rob the deaf, but we have different sacred ways of

859
00:50:46,160 --> 00:50:47,160
writing our rhymes.

860
00:50:47,160 --> 00:50:50,320
Please describe your unique writing process.

861
00:50:50,320 --> 00:50:54,480
Well, as far as lately, I haven't wrote a rhyme.

862
00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:56,360
My last album, I punched in.

863
00:50:56,360 --> 00:50:57,640
I did the new school shit.

864
00:50:57,640 --> 00:50:59,720
I did the new school.

865
00:50:59,720 --> 00:51:02,760
I freestyled for two or three bars and punch in.

866
00:51:02,760 --> 00:51:06,480
That's what made me want to rap again, because I ain't going to lie to you, I hate right

867
00:51:06,480 --> 00:51:07,480
now.

868
00:51:07,480 --> 00:51:09,120
It's too time consuming.

869
00:51:09,120 --> 00:51:15,880
But back when I did used to write, I basically just jotted down whatever was on my mind.

870
00:51:15,880 --> 00:51:21,480
I'm one of those guys that whatever come to my mind, jotted down.

871
00:51:21,480 --> 00:51:23,280
It could be four bars at the moment.

872
00:51:23,280 --> 00:51:25,200
It could be 10 bars.

873
00:51:25,200 --> 00:51:26,520
It could be whatever.

874
00:51:26,520 --> 00:51:32,880
But I was always the one that always jot down whatever comes to my brain first, because

875
00:51:32,880 --> 00:51:37,360
my mind runs 100 miles per hour, so I be trying to get that shit out.

876
00:51:37,360 --> 00:51:42,720
That's why it's so easy and cool for me now to do the punch in freestyle thing.

877
00:51:42,720 --> 00:51:47,960
I won't call it freestyle, but what I had did, I did a lot of research before I made

878
00:51:47,960 --> 00:51:48,960
that album.

879
00:51:48,960 --> 00:51:53,200
I was in the studio with a lot of the young guys and I watched how they was recording

880
00:51:53,200 --> 00:51:55,880
and none of them motherfuckers don't write rhymes.

881
00:51:55,880 --> 00:51:59,400
None of these young boys write rhymes, bruh.

882
00:51:59,400 --> 00:52:01,280
And they punch in and they do shit.

883
00:52:01,280 --> 00:52:05,600
Shout out to Tony Boy, shout out to Luce Cannon, shout out to Leap Baby.

884
00:52:05,600 --> 00:52:10,880
I sat and I watched them in the studio and when I seen them do that, I was like, oh,

885
00:52:10,880 --> 00:52:13,200
I could do that shit 100 miles per hour.

886
00:52:13,200 --> 00:52:14,200
You know what I'm saying?

887
00:52:14,200 --> 00:52:15,200
That's easy.

888
00:52:15,200 --> 00:52:16,200
You know what I'm saying?

889
00:52:16,200 --> 00:52:20,800
It's easy to come up with something real fast and, all right, stop me right there and listen

890
00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:21,800
to it and go over it again.

891
00:52:21,800 --> 00:52:22,800
You know what I'm saying?

892
00:52:22,800 --> 00:52:25,320
So once I figured out that shit, it was a wrap.

893
00:52:25,320 --> 00:52:26,320
All right, all right.

894
00:52:26,320 --> 00:52:29,120
I'm going to put you on the spot and change gears for a second, right?

895
00:52:29,120 --> 00:52:30,560
I know your brain's like mine.

896
00:52:30,560 --> 00:52:32,960
You are a Rolodex of artists.

897
00:52:32,960 --> 00:52:38,200
So who is personally on your two Mount Rushmore's of singers and rappers?

898
00:52:38,200 --> 00:52:41,880
So that would be your top four of each, all time and in order.

899
00:52:41,880 --> 00:52:44,200
So you want to hit singers first?

900
00:52:44,200 --> 00:52:47,720
Singers first, your top four in order singers and then we'll go to rappers next.

901
00:52:47,720 --> 00:52:50,280
Hey, I don't give a mammy fuck what nobody say.

902
00:52:50,280 --> 00:52:51,280
R. Kelly.

903
00:52:51,280 --> 00:52:52,280
Thank you.

904
00:52:52,280 --> 00:52:53,280
R. Kelly, number one.

905
00:52:53,280 --> 00:52:55,280
I don't give a fuck what nobody say.

906
00:52:55,280 --> 00:52:57,280
This is my twit, bro.

907
00:52:57,280 --> 00:52:59,960
Then I got to go with my boy Bobby Brown.

908
00:52:59,960 --> 00:53:00,960
Okay.

909
00:53:00,960 --> 00:53:01,960
Okay.

910
00:53:01,960 --> 00:53:02,960
You know what I'm saying?

911
00:53:02,960 --> 00:53:03,960
I'm a big Bobby Brown man.

912
00:53:03,960 --> 00:53:07,000
And then I definitely got to go with my boy, Michael Jackson.

913
00:53:07,000 --> 00:53:08,000
One time.

914
00:53:08,000 --> 00:53:09,000
Three.

915
00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:10,000
That's three.

916
00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:11,000
One more on your Mount Rushmore.

917
00:53:11,000 --> 00:53:12,000
One more.

918
00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:13,600
And I definitely got to go with my boy, Charlie Wilson, man.

919
00:53:13,600 --> 00:53:14,600
My name is Charlie.

920
00:53:14,600 --> 00:53:15,600
Last name Wilson.

921
00:53:15,600 --> 00:53:16,600
All right.

922
00:53:16,600 --> 00:53:17,600
All right.

923
00:53:17,600 --> 00:53:21,200
Unc, what about your two, your, your top four rappers, your Mount Rushmore of rappers?

924
00:53:21,200 --> 00:53:26,000
My top four MCs, all time and order.

925
00:53:26,000 --> 00:53:32,600
I always get flack about this because I'm not your typical word play MC.

926
00:53:32,600 --> 00:53:39,240
So, so, you know, who my favorite rappers are Snoop Dogg, number one, a goddamn too

927
00:53:39,240 --> 00:53:45,760
short number two, number three, Pimp C, number four, Tupac.

928
00:53:45,760 --> 00:53:46,760
Thank you.

929
00:53:46,760 --> 00:53:49,800
See, if you said future, I was going to, I was going to say the I word for you.

930
00:53:49,800 --> 00:53:53,040
No, future, future is my new school guy.

931
00:53:53,040 --> 00:53:54,040
All time though.

932
00:53:54,040 --> 00:53:55,040
Thank you.

933
00:53:55,040 --> 00:53:56,040
I like, I like your list.

934
00:53:56,040 --> 00:53:57,360
Your list does remind me of your music too.

935
00:53:57,360 --> 00:53:58,360
So.

936
00:53:58,360 --> 00:53:59,360
Yeah, definitely.

937
00:53:59,360 --> 00:54:00,360
That's all.

938
00:54:00,360 --> 00:54:01,360
That's all my music come from, man.

939
00:54:01,360 --> 00:54:02,680
I can't even put my eyes on you guys easily.

940
00:54:02,680 --> 00:54:05,280
All right, Rob, it's all on you, bro.

941
00:54:05,280 --> 00:54:06,280
All right.

942
00:54:06,280 --> 00:54:12,240
D-Rub, at this point in your career, what would be your top dream collab-o now that

943
00:54:12,240 --> 00:54:13,520
makes the most sense?

944
00:54:13,520 --> 00:54:16,520
Oh, me definitely working with Snoop Dogg.

945
00:54:16,520 --> 00:54:19,160
I want to do a Snoop Dogg song about Reefer.

946
00:54:19,160 --> 00:54:24,160
Like I can paint my, like I got to get Snoop on paint my eyes red three or something.

947
00:54:24,160 --> 00:54:26,960
Like I got to, you know what I'm saying?

948
00:54:26,960 --> 00:54:28,560
I got to put that lingo in Snoop Life.

949
00:54:28,560 --> 00:54:31,120
He got to know how to paint his eyes red.

950
00:54:31,120 --> 00:54:35,400
My yeah, that's definitely one of my ultimate goals is to do something with Snoop Dogg,

951
00:54:35,400 --> 00:54:41,000
whether it's a movie, a song or something.

952
00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:43,240
But yeah, I want to do something with Snoop.

953
00:54:43,240 --> 00:54:45,520
That's what's up.

954
00:54:45,520 --> 00:54:46,760
So I'm all about our legacy.

955
00:54:46,760 --> 00:54:52,520
So when you die, what is something you personally want to be remembered for?

956
00:54:52,520 --> 00:54:53,520
Definitely.

957
00:54:53,520 --> 00:54:54,960
I want to be remembered me being me.

958
00:54:54,960 --> 00:55:00,200
I want to be remembered as when you hear that certain song, be like, man, I remember, I

959
00:55:00,200 --> 00:55:01,920
remember D-Rug, he's played that shit.

960
00:55:01,920 --> 00:55:02,920
That's D-Rug shit.

961
00:55:02,920 --> 00:55:03,920
Like, you know what I'm saying?

962
00:55:03,920 --> 00:55:08,200
I want to be remembered as being the life of the party.

963
00:55:08,200 --> 00:55:09,200
You know what I'm saying?

964
00:55:09,200 --> 00:55:13,080
I want to be just be remembered for me being me, man.

965
00:55:13,080 --> 00:55:17,080
I definitely want to be one of those people that no matter what, it's going to be a lot

966
00:55:17,080 --> 00:55:20,080
of shit that reminds me of reminds them of me.

967
00:55:20,080 --> 00:55:21,760
You know what I'm saying?

968
00:55:21,760 --> 00:55:22,760
All right.

969
00:55:22,760 --> 00:55:28,400
So if you could choose one person living or dead to have dinner with, a shot with, shotgun

970
00:55:28,400 --> 00:55:32,840
with whatever you want to call it, who would it be and why?

971
00:55:32,840 --> 00:55:33,840
Definitely Tupac.

972
00:55:33,840 --> 00:55:34,840
Yeah.

973
00:55:34,840 --> 00:55:35,840
Thank you.

974
00:55:35,840 --> 00:55:36,840
Yes.

975
00:55:36,840 --> 00:55:41,200
I want to sit down with Tupac and just, you know, just him talk.

976
00:55:41,200 --> 00:55:43,160
I just thought he was just an amazing man.

977
00:55:43,160 --> 00:55:44,160
You know what I'm saying?

978
00:55:44,160 --> 00:55:47,520
I always just would love to sit down and have a combo with him.

979
00:55:47,520 --> 00:55:48,520
You know what I'm saying?

980
00:55:48,520 --> 00:55:51,000
I feel like Tupac one of them niggas that talk to you about anything.

981
00:55:51,000 --> 00:55:52,600
You know what I'm saying?

982
00:55:52,600 --> 00:55:55,400
And that's somebody I would love to sit down with.

983
00:55:55,400 --> 00:55:56,400
Hell yeah.

984
00:55:56,400 --> 00:55:57,400
Hell yeah.

985
00:55:57,400 --> 00:56:02,480
So Cindy Rugg, one that we like to always end with, which is more important to you,

986
00:56:02,480 --> 00:56:06,720
loyalty or respect and why?

987
00:56:06,720 --> 00:56:08,320
Definitely loyalty.

988
00:56:08,320 --> 00:56:13,200
Loyalty means that no matter what they're on your side, y'all can fall out, y'all can

989
00:56:13,200 --> 00:56:15,120
fight, whatever they loyal to you.

990
00:56:15,120 --> 00:56:16,880
You know what I'm saying?

991
00:56:16,880 --> 00:56:17,880
Respect shit.

992
00:56:17,880 --> 00:56:19,400
You respect dogs and cats.

993
00:56:19,400 --> 00:56:20,400
That's right.

994
00:56:20,400 --> 00:56:21,680
That shit don't mean shit.

995
00:56:21,680 --> 00:56:23,480
Like, you know what I'm saying?

996
00:56:23,480 --> 00:56:25,360
You demand respect everywhere you go.

997
00:56:25,360 --> 00:56:26,360
You know what I'm saying?

998
00:56:26,360 --> 00:56:28,200
You demand loyalty everywhere you go.

999
00:56:28,200 --> 00:56:29,840
So I definitely would say loyalty.

1000
00:56:29,840 --> 00:56:31,720
I feel that dog.

1001
00:56:31,720 --> 00:56:34,560
For real 100%, I feel that shit.

1002
00:56:34,560 --> 00:56:35,640
Thank you.

1003
00:56:35,640 --> 00:56:36,640
Real quick.

1004
00:56:36,640 --> 00:56:38,680
So now look, we're going to move forward.

1005
00:56:38,680 --> 00:56:42,600
Segment four, let's turn back the clock for the time capsule.

1006
00:56:42,600 --> 00:56:45,240
December 8th to the December 15th.

1007
00:56:45,240 --> 00:56:49,580
Taking a quick look into those days through all of our TV and music history.

1008
00:56:49,580 --> 00:56:53,960
First and foremost, I got to give props and pay respect to those who have passed away.

1009
00:56:53,960 --> 00:56:55,320
There's quite a bit this show.

1010
00:56:55,320 --> 00:56:57,200
It's just not good.

1011
00:56:57,200 --> 00:56:58,360
Ten too many.

1012
00:56:58,360 --> 00:57:00,720
So AM, why don't you kick things off?

1013
00:57:00,720 --> 00:57:04,320
Because it always makes me sad, but we're going to start with December the 8th.

1014
00:57:04,320 --> 00:57:06,800
John Lennon, 1980.

1015
00:57:06,800 --> 00:57:08,960
We have Juice World, 2019.

1016
00:57:08,960 --> 00:57:12,440
I just made a reel about Juice World too.

1017
00:57:12,440 --> 00:57:14,280
Recipes of Juice World.

1018
00:57:14,280 --> 00:57:17,760
We have Ralph Tavares, 2021.

1019
00:57:17,760 --> 00:57:19,800
December the 9th, we're going to have Slim 400.

1020
00:57:19,800 --> 00:57:22,320
That's going to be 2021.

1021
00:57:22,320 --> 00:57:26,280
December the 10th is going to be Otis Redding, 1967.

1022
00:57:26,280 --> 00:57:31,160
Damn, that Otis Redding story is so fucked up, bro.

1023
00:57:31,160 --> 00:57:36,560
Now picking up from where AM left off, December 11th, we got Sam Cooke, 1964.

1024
00:57:36,560 --> 00:57:39,280
December 12th, Ike Turner, 2007.

1025
00:57:39,280 --> 00:57:43,400
Mr. Slap Around the World.

1026
00:57:43,400 --> 00:57:48,120
December 13th, Alan Thicke, Father Robin Thicke, 2016.

1027
00:57:48,120 --> 00:57:53,000
December 13th, we have Twitch, AKA Stephen Boss, passed away in 2022, tragically from

1028
00:57:53,000 --> 00:57:55,440
suicide unfortunately.

1029
00:57:55,440 --> 00:57:58,800
And December 15th, we've got Wanda Young from the Marvelettes.

1030
00:57:58,800 --> 00:58:01,600
She passed away in 2021.

1031
00:58:01,600 --> 00:58:02,600
Rest in peace.

1032
00:58:02,600 --> 00:58:03,600
Rest in peace, man.

1033
00:58:03,600 --> 00:58:06,560
So before we go to the next slide, of those names that we said, and I know we kind of

1034
00:58:06,560 --> 00:58:13,160
fired them off, Darius, but of those 10 cats, what would you say is one or two that actually

1035
00:58:13,160 --> 00:58:16,860
touched you that you actually really cared about their discography and what they did

1036
00:58:16,860 --> 00:58:19,280
to music and meant to music?

1037
00:58:19,280 --> 00:58:20,560
Juice WRLD was dope as shit.

1038
00:58:20,560 --> 00:58:27,120
Now no disrespect to none of the other legends that we had that you mentioned, but I listened.

1039
00:58:27,120 --> 00:58:28,880
I actually listened to Juice WRLD.

1040
00:58:28,880 --> 00:58:32,880
When I went to Chicago, that was one of the first things I wanted to do was visit his

1041
00:58:32,880 --> 00:58:33,920
memorial.

1042
00:58:33,920 --> 00:58:36,040
I just think Juice WRLD was just dope, man.

1043
00:58:36,040 --> 00:58:41,320
He was like, if you ever get a chance, just watch that kid freestyle.

1044
00:58:41,320 --> 00:58:45,440
I'm talking about 20 minutes off the head, 20 minutes, like no fuck ups.

1045
00:58:45,440 --> 00:58:47,800
And he used to be fucked up.

1046
00:58:47,800 --> 00:58:48,800
Extremely fucked up.

1047
00:58:48,800 --> 00:58:52,960
Yeah, he used to be fucked up, but that boy could go, bruh.

1048
00:58:52,960 --> 00:59:00,760
But fortunately, he was part of that generation where they indulge in them drugs, but he was

1049
00:59:00,760 --> 00:59:01,760
very talented.

1050
00:59:01,760 --> 00:59:05,680
There was some couple of other ones that you had mentioned too on there, man.

1051
00:59:05,680 --> 00:59:10,040
You got to get up to Ike Turner, man.

1052
00:59:10,040 --> 00:59:12,600
We wouldn't have Tina without how hard Ike pushed her.

1053
00:59:12,600 --> 00:59:14,440
Yeah, Ike was a bad man.

1054
00:59:14,440 --> 00:59:15,440
You know what I'm saying?

1055
00:59:15,440 --> 00:59:18,280
Hey, bitches, if you die, I'm going to kill you.

1056
00:59:18,280 --> 00:59:21,080
I think Otis and Sam were the two that touched me a little bit.

1057
00:59:21,080 --> 00:59:22,080
John Lennon.

1058
00:59:22,080 --> 00:59:23,080
Yeah, Otis and Sam, man.

1059
00:59:23,080 --> 00:59:24,080
Yeah, man.

1060
00:59:24,080 --> 00:59:25,080
Damn, he died in 07.

1061
00:59:25,080 --> 00:59:26,080
Ike Turner?

1062
00:59:26,080 --> 00:59:27,080
Yes, sir.

1063
00:59:27,080 --> 00:59:28,080
Wow.

1064
00:59:28,080 --> 00:59:29,200
And then Wanda Young.

1065
00:59:29,200 --> 00:59:31,000
So I always do this to Rob every episode.

1066
00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:32,600
I'll throw one curve ball in there.

1067
00:59:32,600 --> 00:59:34,120
It's like, do you remember who this is?

1068
00:59:34,120 --> 00:59:35,120
So from the mark of lights.

1069
00:59:35,120 --> 00:59:36,120
No, I don't.

1070
00:59:36,120 --> 00:59:37,120
I don't at all.

1071
00:59:37,120 --> 00:59:38,120
You always do that because you know I won't remember.

1072
00:59:38,120 --> 00:59:39,120
I ain't going to even lie to you.

1073
00:59:39,120 --> 00:59:40,120
I thought you was going to say Wanda Sykes.

1074
00:59:40,120 --> 00:59:41,120
I was going to say, man, she ain't dead.

1075
00:59:41,120 --> 00:59:45,320
But she did know Wanda Young was a Marvelette.

1076
00:59:45,320 --> 00:59:47,720
So wait a minute, Mr. Postman.

1077
00:59:47,720 --> 00:59:48,720
Yes.

1078
00:59:48,720 --> 00:59:49,720
All right.

1079
00:59:49,720 --> 00:59:56,920
So moving on to something happier, Rob, I kick us off on a much happier note.

1080
00:59:56,920 --> 00:59:59,520
So let us celebrate all the special birthdays coming up.

1081
00:59:59,520 --> 01:00:00,960
We got a lot this week.

1082
01:00:00,960 --> 01:00:03,480
26 exact.

1083
01:00:03,480 --> 01:00:06,720
So Doc, why don't you jump into the big birthday shout outs?

1084
01:00:06,720 --> 01:00:07,720
All right.

1085
01:00:07,720 --> 01:00:08,720
Oh, my goodness.

1086
01:00:08,720 --> 01:00:09,720
There's so many.

1087
01:00:09,720 --> 01:00:10,720
All right.

1088
01:00:10,720 --> 01:00:11,720
So your birthday was December 8th.

1089
01:00:11,720 --> 01:00:14,440
He did pass away, but he would have been 99.

1090
01:00:14,440 --> 01:00:19,080
He looked like he was 99 when he was alive.

1091
01:00:19,080 --> 01:00:23,240
Going down south to the ghetto boys, we got Bushwick Bill, whose birthday was also December

1092
01:00:23,240 --> 01:00:24,240
8th.

1093
01:00:24,240 --> 01:00:25,240
He passed away as well, but would have been 58.

1094
01:00:25,240 --> 01:00:26,240
Shout out to Bushwick.

1095
01:00:26,240 --> 01:00:27,240
Hell yeah.

1096
01:00:27,240 --> 01:00:30,800
I ran into him a couple of times when he was out here in Orlando.

1097
01:00:30,800 --> 01:00:31,800
That motherfucker crazy, bro.

1098
01:00:31,800 --> 01:00:32,800
Rest in peace, man.

1099
01:00:32,800 --> 01:00:35,640
We got R&B vocalist, Crissette Michelle.

1100
01:00:35,640 --> 01:00:36,880
The birthday is December 8th.

1101
01:00:36,880 --> 01:00:38,340
She turned 42.

1102
01:00:38,340 --> 01:00:42,760
The same exact day and same exact year, we got Nicki Minaj, December 8th.

1103
01:00:42,760 --> 01:00:44,080
She also turned 42.

1104
01:00:44,080 --> 01:00:46,040
So they're both the same age as me.

1105
01:00:46,040 --> 01:00:47,720
And then we got Cannabis, December 9th.

1106
01:00:47,720 --> 01:00:49,320
He turned 50 years old.

1107
01:00:49,320 --> 01:00:52,840
Cannabis is the human version of German engineering.

1108
01:00:52,840 --> 01:00:55,480
Shout out to Cannabis.

1109
01:00:55,480 --> 01:00:57,240
So we're going to have Camouflage, December 9th.

1110
01:00:57,240 --> 01:00:59,240
Would have been 50 years old.

1111
01:00:59,240 --> 01:01:00,240
Rest in peace.

1112
01:01:00,240 --> 01:01:01,240
You said Camouflage?

1113
01:01:01,240 --> 01:01:02,240
Do you remember who that was?

1114
01:01:02,240 --> 01:01:03,240
Camouflage would have been 50?

1115
01:01:03,240 --> 01:01:05,640
He would have been 50 if he stayed alive.

1116
01:01:05,640 --> 01:01:07,080
You know his daughter raps now.

1117
01:01:07,080 --> 01:01:08,080
I did not know that.

1118
01:01:08,080 --> 01:01:09,080
His daughter's that girl from LSU.

1119
01:01:09,080 --> 01:01:10,080
Which girl?

1120
01:01:10,080 --> 01:01:11,080
She got the song with Lil Wayne.

1121
01:01:11,080 --> 01:01:12,080
What's Camouflage's daughter's name?

1122
01:01:12,080 --> 01:01:13,080
LaFloj.

1123
01:01:13,080 --> 01:01:14,080
What's her name?

1124
01:01:14,080 --> 01:01:15,080
Oh shit.

1125
01:01:15,080 --> 01:01:16,080
Yeah, Roger LaFloj.

1126
01:01:16,080 --> 01:01:17,080
That's Camouflage's daughter.

1127
01:01:17,080 --> 01:01:18,080
Ah, that's what's up.

1128
01:01:18,080 --> 01:01:25,080
She dope as shit too because she harder than the motherfucker.

1129
01:01:25,080 --> 01:01:26,080
I love Camouflage.

1130
01:01:26,080 --> 01:01:29,080
Matter of fact, I would just listen to Fuck Friends not too long ago.

1131
01:01:29,080 --> 01:01:30,080
Yeah.

1132
01:01:30,080 --> 01:01:31,080
I got it.

1133
01:01:31,080 --> 01:01:34,080
Are we going to have PNB Rock, what have been, 33?

1134
01:01:34,080 --> 01:01:36,080
Damn, he would have been 33, man.

1135
01:01:36,080 --> 01:01:37,080
Rest in peace, PNB Rock.

1136
01:01:37,080 --> 01:01:40,080
He was like in a restaurant or something, right?

1137
01:01:40,080 --> 01:01:41,080
Yeah.

1138
01:01:41,080 --> 01:01:43,080
He got raffle, raffle, chicken and raffles.

1139
01:01:43,080 --> 01:01:44,080
Yeah.

1140
01:01:44,080 --> 01:01:46,080
They said that one of the employees set him up.

1141
01:01:46,080 --> 01:01:49,080
Yeah, nigga, set him up for his chain, bro.

1142
01:01:49,080 --> 01:01:51,080
So, Kanava, that is Kanava from?

1143
01:01:51,080 --> 01:01:52,080
D12.

1144
01:01:52,080 --> 01:01:53,080
Good.

1145
01:01:53,080 --> 01:01:54,080
D12, yeah.

1146
01:01:54,080 --> 01:01:56,080
It's going to be 48, December the 10th.

1147
01:01:56,080 --> 01:01:59,080
Last but not least, it's going to be Glasses Malone.

1148
01:01:59,080 --> 01:02:01,080
He's going to be 45 on December the 10th.

1149
01:02:01,080 --> 01:02:02,080
Shout out to Glasses Malone.

1150
01:02:02,080 --> 01:02:03,080
I fuck with him too.

1151
01:02:03,080 --> 01:02:04,080
Me too.

1152
01:02:04,080 --> 01:02:05,080

1153
01:02:05,080 --> 01:02:07,080

1154
01:02:07,080 --> 01:02:10,080
Oh my God, Rob, we got to open up your listening pleasures here, man.

01:02:16,080 --> 01:02:17,080
He's done quite a bit.

1158
01:02:17,080 --> 01:02:18,080
Okay.

1159
01:02:18,080 --> 01:02:19,080
One time for Glasses Malone.

1160
01:02:19,080 --> 01:02:20,080
Hey, I'm here to learn.

1161
01:02:20,080 --> 01:02:21,080
I'm here to learn, y'all.

1162
01:02:21,080 --> 01:02:22,080
I'm here to learn.

1163
01:02:22,080 --> 01:02:25,080
You never heard the song he had about who killed Tupac?

1164
01:02:25,080 --> 01:02:26,080
Yeah.

1165
01:02:26,080 --> 01:02:27,080
Look at Rob's eyes.

1166
01:02:27,080 --> 01:02:29,080
Rob, you got to listen to that shit.

1167
01:02:29,080 --> 01:02:31,080
He got this shit about Tupac, bro.

1168
01:02:31,080 --> 01:02:32,080
Yes.

1169
01:02:32,080 --> 01:02:37,080
He gave his theory about who killed Tupac, that shit was dope as hell.

1170
01:02:37,080 --> 01:02:42,080
One time, December 10th, she's going to be 38 years old, Natty Natasha.

1171
01:02:42,080 --> 01:02:48,080
We also got, that's my girl, on December 10th, turning 34, Tiana Taylor.

1173
01:02:49,080 --> 01:02:50,080
One time.

1174
01:02:50,080 --> 01:02:51,080
Yeah.

1175
01:02:51,080 --> 01:02:52,080
That bass.

1176
01:02:52,080 --> 01:02:56,080
Turning 93 on December 11th, Rita Moreno.

1177
01:02:56,080 --> 01:02:57,080
Wow.

1178
01:02:57,080 --> 01:03:02,080
And guess what, our boy Jermaine Jackson on December 11th will turn 70.

1179
01:03:02,080 --> 01:03:07,080
That nigga take that leather purse off his head, boy.

1180
01:03:07,080 --> 01:03:10,080
That nigga got the greasiest fade in history.

1181
01:03:10,080 --> 01:03:12,080
Yo, for real, and it's always been like that too.

1182
01:03:12,080 --> 01:03:14,080
It has been like last two decades.

1183
01:03:14,080 --> 01:03:15,080
For real.

1184
01:03:15,080 --> 01:03:17,080
It's like clay, don't it?

1185
01:03:17,080 --> 01:03:23,080
DJ Yella, NWA one time, December 11th, he'll be 57.

1186
01:03:23,080 --> 01:03:24,080
Shout out to DJ Yella.

1187
01:03:24,080 --> 01:03:28,080
Bro, I was just listening to World Class Recon Clue last night.

1188
01:03:28,080 --> 01:03:37,080
What's crazy is every time planning your show, you know, D-Rug, every time I see you're live in the morning, I'm in the courthouse, unfortunately.

1189
01:03:37,080 --> 01:03:43,080
But I watch that shit so intensely because I'm like, all right, let's see if he hits the points that I'm thinking of.

1190
01:03:43,080 --> 01:03:49,080
The reason why I like these records, these historic records that have anniversaries, and you every single time hit the point.

1191
01:03:49,080 --> 01:03:53,080
So it's like, I know you got your historian dude up in there.

1192
01:03:53,080 --> 01:03:55,080
We just need to get the future out of there.

1193
01:03:55,080 --> 01:03:57,080
The future ain't going nowhere, man.

1194
01:03:57,080 --> 01:04:01,080
So, but picking up from where Rob left off, I'm going to go to December 11th also.

1195
01:04:01,080 --> 01:04:04,080

1196
01:04:04,080 --> 01:04:06,080
Shout out to Most Def.

1197
01:04:06,080 --> 01:04:12,080
R&B Great Diva Dionne Warwick, December 12th, 84.

1198
01:04:12,080 --> 01:04:14,080
She still looks good too.

1199
01:04:14,080 --> 01:04:17,080
That's crazy. Her and Teyana Taylor has the same birthday?

1200
01:04:17,080 --> 01:04:19,080
Two days apart, two days apart.

1201
01:04:19,080 --> 01:04:22,080
Oh, because you know that's when she wanted to play her in the movie.

1202
01:04:22,080 --> 01:04:24,080
Yes.

1203
01:04:24,080 --> 01:04:26,080
So that's dope. I think she should get that role.

1204
01:04:26,080 --> 01:04:28,080
Just from their birthdays alone.

1205
01:04:28,080 --> 01:04:30,080
Yeah, the birthdays alone and she looked like her.

1206
01:04:30,080 --> 01:04:32,080
Like she could play her.

1207
01:04:32,080 --> 01:04:35,080
December 12th, we also have B Love turning 24.

1208
01:04:35,080 --> 01:04:38,080
I think he's the youngest person we have on these slides.

01:04:38,080 --> 01:04:44,080
December 13th, we got comedian and R&B artist Jamie Foxx turning 57.

1214
01:05:00,080 --> 01:05:02,080

1215
01:05:02,080 --> 01:05:03,080
From the West Coast?

1216
01:05:03,080 --> 01:05:04,080
Yes, sir.

1217
01:05:04,080 --> 01:05:06,080
Hell, fuck yeah. I used to listen to that name.

1218
01:05:06,080 --> 01:05:07,080
Shout out to King T.

1219
01:05:07,080 --> 01:05:09,080

1223
01:05:25,080 --> 01:05:29,080
And then Imani, 53. So my brain started singing a goddamn song.

1224
01:05:29,080 --> 01:05:31,080
That is Imani from Joe Button.

1225
01:05:31,080 --> 01:05:33,080
No, that's actually Imani from Farside.

1226
01:05:33,080 --> 01:05:35,080
Oh shit, that's the other nigga name.

1227
01:05:35,080 --> 01:05:36,080
Really?

1228
01:05:36,080 --> 01:05:37,080
Yep, Imani from the Farside.

1229
01:05:37,080 --> 01:05:38,080
Fuck me up with that one.

1230
01:05:38,080 --> 01:05:39,080
I'm back y'all.

1231
01:05:39,080 --> 01:05:40,080
Can't keep running away.

1232
01:05:40,080 --> 01:05:41,080
Yes, thank you.

1233
01:05:41,080 --> 01:05:43,080
That was that second album, that second album, crazy.

1234
01:05:43,080 --> 01:05:46,080
I got to open up for Farside too when they came down to Miami.

1235
01:05:46,080 --> 01:05:47,080
Bro, trust me.

1236
01:05:47,080 --> 01:05:49,080
You know what, hey, can I say this?

1237
01:05:49,080 --> 01:05:50,080
Yeah.

1238
01:05:50,080 --> 01:05:54,080
I think they have the most, one of the most...

1239
01:05:54,080 --> 01:05:55,080
Creative.

1240
01:05:55,080 --> 01:05:57,080
Biggest songs in hip hop history.

1241
01:05:57,080 --> 01:05:59,080
Are you talking about Run In or Pass Me By?

1242
01:05:59,080 --> 01:06:00,080
Pass Me By is probably...

1243
01:06:00,080 --> 01:06:02,080
I love Pass Me By too.

1244
01:06:02,080 --> 01:06:10,080
Pass Me By is like, I think we, I think we at that time in our life that we have to add that to one of the greatest songs.

1245
01:06:10,080 --> 01:06:12,080
That's one of the greatest hip hop songs ever, bro.

1246
01:06:12,080 --> 01:06:15,080
That song is so great, bro.

1247
01:06:15,080 --> 01:06:16,080
Legendary.

1248
01:06:16,080 --> 01:06:20,080
And it's been in movies, it's been in everything, you know what I'm saying?

1249
01:06:20,080 --> 01:06:25,080
So I think it's that time that we have to, and not even can't keep running away too, it's sick too.

1250
01:06:25,080 --> 01:06:30,080
All right, so moving out of the time caps, we're going to move to segment five, 100% Facts.

1251
01:06:30,080 --> 01:06:31,080
This is actually what I do for work.

1252
01:06:31,080 --> 01:06:33,080
So up next is 100% Facts.

1253
01:06:33,080 --> 01:06:38,080
Here we go into the guts of radio success, facts of how artists are performing at radio,

1254
01:06:38,080 --> 01:06:40,080
and what I do for work weekly at Media Base.

1255
01:06:40,080 --> 01:06:43,080
Rob, why don't you go into who's the number one spot this week?

1256
01:06:43,080 --> 01:06:48,080
Here's who performed best and snatched that tippy top radio chart spot.

1257
01:06:48,080 --> 01:06:58,080
Residuals from Chris Brown with over 6,396 spins per day last week, also number one in club.

1258
01:06:58,080 --> 01:07:06,080
Officially shipped to radio on September 10th, 2024 by CB Entertainment slash RCA Records.

1259
01:07:06,080 --> 01:07:13,080
It had some crossover out the gate on week one and debuted at 36 on Urban and number 49 on Rhythmic Club.

1260
01:07:13,080 --> 01:07:21,080
It went TikTok viral, it earned some sync licenses, and is nominated for a Best R&B Performance Grammy next February.

1261
01:07:21,080 --> 01:07:25,080
It's also charting top 20 in four other countries.

1262
01:07:25,080 --> 01:07:35,080
And for Chris's, it's his 51st top 10 Urban hit and his 14th club number one hit of his career as well.

1263
01:07:35,080 --> 01:07:38,080
So tell me who...

1264
01:07:38,080 --> 01:07:40,080
Residuals.

1265
01:07:40,080 --> 01:07:42,080
I love that song, dog.

1266
01:07:42,080 --> 01:07:44,080
I knew that song was hot before I even did the video.

1267
01:07:44,080 --> 01:07:48,080
I pretty sure that shit wrong. I thought it was gonna go 10 to 20, I think, doc.

1268
01:07:48,080 --> 01:07:53,080
Put it like this. I'm gonna tell you how hard that song is. Me and my partner, we be ride. We two real niggas, bro.

1269
01:07:53,080 --> 01:07:57,080
But we will ride to that motherfucking song there. Bang!

1270
01:07:57,080 --> 01:08:00,080
Shout him out. What's your partner's name, bro?

1271
01:08:00,080 --> 01:08:04,080
My dog. But shout out my dog, Rob. You know, since Celebrity Bell's laws go.

1272
01:08:04,080 --> 01:08:06,080
Yo, Rob!

1273
01:08:06,080 --> 01:08:14,080
Yeah, I got a dog named Rob. Celebrity Bondsman, bro. We go ride out to Miami. That's who I go to Miami with to go see the hurricanes.

1274
01:08:14,080 --> 01:08:16,080
You need to hit me up next time you come down here, bro.

1275
01:08:16,080 --> 01:08:20,080
His son played for the hurricanes, so we slide out there a lot, bro.

1276
01:08:20,080 --> 01:08:23,080
Come down here and see me, D-Rug. I'm a fan, homie.

1277
01:08:23,080 --> 01:08:25,080
I got you, bro. I got you. I'm coming to see you.

1278
01:08:25,080 --> 01:08:33,080
But that song is crap, bro. The way he's singing on that shit, just everything. Chris did that.

1279
01:08:33,080 --> 01:08:36,080
A.M., tell us a little bit about the description of the record.

1280
01:08:36,080 --> 01:08:43,080
Co-produced by Eric Hudson and Black Tuxedo. It's a somber, well-written electric guitar-filled emotional ex-lover ballad.

1281
01:08:43,080 --> 01:08:50,080
D-Rug, you got to ask, what was your opinion on this record? You kind of were giving it to us, but what was your opinion on the record when you first heard it?

1282
01:08:50,080 --> 01:09:00,080
It's crap. I knew. Y'all telling me that song is number one on the radio, and I'm not even dissing. I know that shit is crap, bro.

1283
01:09:00,080 --> 01:09:07,080
I loved it the first time I heard it. Shout out to Chris Brown for that one. One thing about Chris, he going to make him a hit.

1284
01:09:07,080 --> 01:09:12,080
I'm going to tell you Chris Brown's problem. His albums are too goddamn long.

1285
01:09:12,080 --> 01:09:13,080
Yes.

1286
01:09:13,080 --> 01:09:18,080
That nigga albums last three, four days. You don't even listen to all them shits.

1287
01:09:18,080 --> 01:09:25,080
That last album he came out with, when I first heard that song, I knew that was it. That was it right there, bro.

1288
01:09:25,080 --> 01:09:31,080
To piggyback off of D-Rug, one thing I'm a big fan of is really good writing. If you write it well.

1289
01:09:31,080 --> 01:09:45,080
So much Chris Brown's stuff is very upfront and forward and simple and basic, but when he started using metaphors, how residuals of royalties, comparing it to an ex-girl and who she's giving her royalties to, and residuals, I definitely fell in love with it.

1290
01:09:45,080 --> 01:09:51,080
I knew it was going to be a hit. It's definitely something that we had to review, right, AM?

1291
01:09:51,080 --> 01:09:59,080
Yeah, yeah. It is something. Also, we reviewed here at Twisted Critics back in mid-September for RCA Records.

1292
01:09:59,080 --> 01:10:07,080
No doubt, no doubt. So six of us reviewers showed up that week. Myself, AM, Rob, Ms. Singh, Nigel, and Christina from Tampa.

1293
01:10:07,080 --> 01:10:20,080
Darius, you know I predicted it correctly. No surprise, no surprise there, right? But I wasn't the only one this time. One more reviewer guessed it right. Rob, do you want to guess who guessed it right?

1294
01:10:20,080 --> 01:10:27,080
I want to guess AM, man. He's the one, bro. AM looked like he knew what he was talking about when he heard it.

1295
01:10:27,080 --> 01:10:33,080
AM knows everything. He knows it all, bro. Like there's nothing he doesn't fucking know. It's amazing.

1296
01:10:33,080 --> 01:10:38,080
There's some weeks that he goes super low and then some weeks he just nails it. So this time.

1297
01:10:38,080 --> 01:10:49,080
I knew it. Once I read it, I did my post and I read it. I was like, this is totally going number one. I mean, doc, I love you, but listening to you is cheating. So I listen to AM.

1298
01:10:49,080 --> 01:10:59,080
If you listen to me, you make some money. Nobody can fucking detect where your song is going to chart on the radio better than this man right here.

1299
01:10:59,080 --> 01:11:07,080
All right. So of the six of us, Nigel from Chicago guessed 10 through 20 at Urban and 25 to 35 at Club. He was closer with Urban.

1300
01:11:07,080 --> 01:11:19,080
Miss Singh from Bronx, New York. Miss Singh guessed 10 through 20 at Club and 20 to 30 at Urban. Rob from the Mob from Miami guessed 10 through 20 at Urban and 20 to 30 at Club.

1301
01:11:19,080 --> 01:11:28,080
The third best was Tina from Tampa guessed 5 through 15 at Urban and 20 to 30 at Club. Second best was AM. He guessed top 10 at Urban.

1302
01:11:28,080 --> 01:11:35,080
I knew it. I knew it. I knew it. But he also guessed 30 to 40 at Club. It don't matter. It was top 10 at Urban.

1303
01:11:35,080 --> 01:11:42,080
I was just going to ask something about that. Rob, we definitely say, how do you determine shit that's going to get played in the club though?

1304
01:11:42,080 --> 01:11:51,080
So radio stations... I go out every day. I would not expect to hear that song in the club.

1305
01:11:51,080 --> 01:11:57,080
So what's crazy is radio stations have different formats that are designated to what? So you have Urban, which is hip hop and rap.

1306
01:11:57,080 --> 01:12:06,080
You have adult R&B contemporary, which is R&B, traditional R&B, classic R&B. And then you have rhythmic club, which is what's generally played in clubs and club stations.

1307
01:12:06,080 --> 01:12:14,080
So that's kind of the definition of how it's designated that way. The person who was with AM the best on this one was Doc J.

1308
01:12:14,080 --> 01:12:20,080
Myself, I guessed top 10 at Urban and I guessed 5 through 15 at Club. So I actually got Rob. I got Club wrong too.

1309
01:12:20,080 --> 01:12:27,080
Yeah, you got Club wrong, but you knew it was a top 10 and I should have known that. You should have copied me. I'm still a student.

1310
01:12:27,080 --> 01:12:35,080
You would have gave the same answer I would have gave. Because like I said, I wouldn't expect to hear that song in the club, but it can be a club banger.

1311
01:12:35,080 --> 01:12:43,080
It is. They play it. That song is fire. That's one of the songs that I get behind no matter what train is behind.

1312
01:12:43,080 --> 01:12:50,080
Yeah, I went a little soft on it. I should have known, but I knew it was a great song. So I didn't know.

1313
01:12:50,080 --> 01:12:59,080
I just didn't know. And I knew Doc knew. But sometimes I'm like maybe Doc's wrong. And I'm always wrong when I say that Doc's wrong.

1314
01:12:59,080 --> 01:13:08,080
You know, check this out. New breaking singles. Okay. Here we highlight which new songs broke nationally entering on the Urban Radio charts.

1315
01:13:08,080 --> 01:13:18,080
We had four new debuts this past week. Doc kick us off. All right. We got one that we didn't review actually. So Kendrick Lamar featuring Lefty Gunplay TV off.

1316
01:13:18,080 --> 01:13:24,080
Yeah, turn the TV off. Turn the TV off. That's number one TV off. Turn the TV off. I don't know if it's number one. We'll see what happens.

1317
01:13:24,080 --> 01:13:37,080
It's number two behind squabble. Well, no, you're talking about Billboard not radio though. So it was shipped November 30th, 2024 debut and at 37 and Urban with over 771 spins per day last week.

1318
01:13:37,080 --> 01:13:45,080
Distributed by PG Lang slash Interscope Records group produced by Soundwave Jack Antonoff. That's a that's Taylor Swift producer, which is crazy.

1319
01:13:45,080 --> 01:13:55,080
Mustard. Yep. Yeah. Jack Antonoff won so many Grammys last year. I think he's going to win the Grammy, right? Yeah. He's a producer or engineer. Producer. Producer. Really? Yep.

1320
01:13:55,080 --> 01:14:09,080
Antonoff, baby. So Kendrick got the Swifties on his album. Yes, sir. Soundwave Jack Antonoff, Mustard, Kamasi Washington and Sean Momberger. I like that name. Momberger. It's like six, seven producers on that shit. Yes, sir.

1321
01:14:09,080 --> 01:14:26,080
Great name for a restaurant, right? Second single off his newly released GNX features the relatively unknown Cali rapper Lefty Gunplay and from streaming alone, it went number one on Billboard also. Shipped to club formats too and his debut unit clubs at 34 with over 750 spins per day.

1322
01:14:26,080 --> 01:14:38,080
I give it another week. It's going to be in the top 10. So hold on. So, D-Rug, we'll go through this one. That one we didn't get to review, but the two on this list that we did get to review, you'll get to kind of agree or disagree with us. We'll see what happens.

1323
01:14:38,080 --> 01:14:58,080
So second is going to be Bigger in Texas from Megan Thee Stallion. Shipped on 10-29-24. Debuted at number 41 on Urban with over 706 spins per day last. Distributed by Hot Girl Productions Warner Music Group, produced by Bankroll Got It, Sean Source and Truckee Street.

1324
01:14:58,080 --> 01:15:14,080
Second single off of her Megan Act. Is that a two or three dot three? Has a two. Megan Act Two album that has some bursty, bassy, mid-tempo, play-alistic Southern hip hop with a Texas UGK type of vibe. She does that a lot. I like that.

1325
01:15:14,080 --> 01:15:36,080
Famous rapper, Spim C. By the way, you can tell, you can tell. Debuting on club format at number 48 with over 269 spins per day. Right up after that, right? Right after that. It's going to be Ella Mai, Little Thing. Shipped 11-15-24. Debuting at number 42 on Urban with over 611 spins per day last week.

1326
01:15:36,080 --> 01:15:56,080
Distributed by 10summers slash Interscope. Co-produced by Mustard and Guiltrip. First single off her new three EP. That's a minimalistic, heartfelt battle with harps. Warm keys. Love those. And it's dedicated to her baby daddy. NBA player Jason Tatum. Shouts out to the Southwicks. Shipped to club formats as well, but not yet, Shardik.

1327
01:15:56,080 --> 01:15:58,080
You said who got a rap song?

1328
01:15:58,080 --> 01:16:05,080
So no, Ella Mai's single is actually dedicated after her baby daddy, Jason Tatum. So the whole song is basically about him.

1329
01:16:05,080 --> 01:16:11,080
I got to listen to that. I haven't heard that one. I don't have an opinion on that. But that just made me want to listen to it.

1330
01:16:11,080 --> 01:16:16,080
So hold on. You will hear all of our opinions and us kind of argue on this one for sure.

1331
01:16:16,080 --> 01:16:21,080
You put that on the playlist? Yeah, that's on the playlist for sure. The bump it in number 22.

1332
01:16:21,080 --> 01:16:27,080
I got to check that one. I got to check that one. Miami Heat, baby. All right. So following after that. Let's go.

1333
01:16:27,080 --> 01:16:32,080
I believe in Magic. Orlando Magic is actually my second favorite team.

1334
01:16:32,080 --> 01:16:37,080
You know what? Miami is my second team. I used to I like going up there and I love when Orlando come down.

1335
01:16:37,080 --> 01:16:44,080
I go back and forth. I swear I fuck with Orlando. I love you. I love you both.

1336
01:16:44,080 --> 01:16:52,080
But I hate both those motherfucking teams. Man, whatever. My teams every single year are Spurs and Celtics, whether they're good or bad.

1337
01:16:52,080 --> 01:17:00,080
I used to have a. You know what? I'm in this interview. You like. Yeah, I'm telling you. Tell them something. Tell them something.

1338
01:17:00,080 --> 01:17:07,080
Oh, I hate the Celtics, but I hate I hate the Celtics more than any team in any sport.

1339
01:17:07,080 --> 01:17:11,080
Me, I'm the type of motherfucker, bro. I like throwbacks like, you know, I'm Sam.

1340
01:17:11,080 --> 01:17:19,080
I love throwbacks so bad, bro, that I want to damn I want to Reggie Lewis jersey or Larry Bird.

1341
01:17:19,080 --> 01:17:23,080
I got a Larry Bird jersey and I want to always want to Reggie Lewis one.

1342
01:17:23,080 --> 01:17:28,080
You know what I'm saying? But Richard Lewis. Yeah, I know Reggie Lewis. Reggie Lewis from the South.

1343
01:17:28,080 --> 01:17:31,080
You're talking about. Yes. Oh, hell yeah. Because he passed away from the heart.

1344
01:17:31,080 --> 01:17:35,080
Yeah, the heart attack. Yeah. Yeah. He snorted the cane and died. I always wanted a jersey.

1345
01:17:35,080 --> 01:17:41,080
I cannot put on the motherfucking Celtics, bro.

1346
01:17:41,080 --> 01:17:47,080
No, I'm never Boston, bro. It is. It is. You ain't got a I will never wear a Celtics jersey.

1347
01:17:47,080 --> 01:17:51,080
You can't. My last name is Boston. I would not put that fuck shit on, bro.

1348
01:17:51,080 --> 01:17:55,080
Rob, slide into the very last one for us. Let's go.

1349
01:17:55,080 --> 01:18:04,080
We're talking about It's My Ego by Ice Cube shipped on November 7th, 2024 and debuted on number 44 on Urban Charts

1350
01:18:04,080 --> 01:18:12,080
with over three hundred and forty seven spins per day last week, distributed by Lynch Mob slash Universal Music,

1351
01:18:12,080 --> 01:18:17,080
produced by E.A. Ski, first single of his new album, Man Down.

1352
01:18:17,080 --> 01:18:23,080
It's a vibrant, unapologetic West Coast bop with chill keys and G-Funk guitar.

1353
01:18:23,080 --> 01:18:26,080
Also charting and performing better on club formats.

1354
01:18:26,080 --> 01:18:33,080
Presently number twenty nine with over one thousand one hundred and seventy one spins per day last week.

1355
01:18:33,080 --> 01:18:38,080
All right. Now, D-Rug, of those four, we were tasked for Hear My Voice and Twisted Critics.

1356
01:18:38,080 --> 01:18:42,080
We were tasked in the previous weeks of doing formal reviews for two of them to their labels.

1357
01:18:42,080 --> 01:18:46,080
Little Things from LMA and It's My Ego from Ice Cube.

1358
01:18:46,080 --> 01:18:50,080
So let's see how each of us reviewed them before they got a chance to actually get on radio,

1359
01:18:50,080 --> 01:18:56,080
because we definitely disagree on a few of them. Now, in regards to Little Things LMA, we had six reviewers.

1360
01:18:56,080 --> 01:19:01,080
Basically everybody but Rob. And of those six reviewers, we had six week bumps.

1361
01:19:01,080 --> 01:19:07,080
So basically everyone liked it. They didn't dislike it, but they didn't love it either across the board.

1362
01:19:07,080 --> 01:19:11,080
But before we dig into it, D-Rug, you haven't heard this record yet, right?

1363
01:19:11,080 --> 01:19:15,080
You know something, I ain't going to lie to you, I'm going to hate on that record, bro, because she was talking about Jason Taylor.

1364
01:19:15,080 --> 01:19:20,080
Just because y'all said that, I'm going to hate on that record. That's my girlfriend in my head a little bit.

1365
01:19:20,080 --> 01:19:24,080
She don't know it yet. That's my girlfriend. But that's my girlfriend. I love LMA, bro.

1366
01:19:24,080 --> 01:19:28,080
Oh my God. And she got a song about Jason Taylor. I'm hating, dog.

1367
01:19:28,080 --> 01:19:30,080
All right. So if, if. I'm hating, man.

1368
01:19:30,080 --> 01:19:36,080
So Rob, Rob, if you didn't do a review, could you at least do me a favor and read Nigel's In Missing?

1369
01:19:36,080 --> 01:19:45,080
Okay. On November 26th, Nigel said, I enjoyed listening to it, but I feel it's not as strong a single as her usual.

1370
01:19:45,080 --> 01:19:51,080
Mustard did his thing on the production. I'd like the guitar and the beat. That was the ear candy for me.

1371
01:19:51,080 --> 01:19:56,080
Hook is cool. Good verses, good mix. She delivered vocally too.

1372
01:19:56,080 --> 01:20:02,080
This EP was just something to keep the fans satisfied until the album comes next year.

1373
01:20:02,080 --> 01:20:09,080
And I felt the same for this song. He guessed 30 to 40 on Urban and 35 to 45 on Rhythmic Club.

1374
01:20:09,080 --> 01:20:18,080
And he gave it a weak bump. On November 26th, Missing said, Little Things is a reminder of why she's a staple in modern R&B.

1375
01:20:18,080 --> 01:20:26,080
Her silky voice glides effortlessly over a minimalist beat of light synth pads and crisp percussion.

1376
01:20:26,080 --> 01:20:32,080
The song's theme of cherishing the small moments in love is both relatable and heartwarming.

1377
01:20:32,080 --> 01:20:41,080
While not her most groundbreaking track, its simplicity works in her favor, delivering an authentic and comforting vibe.

1378
01:20:41,080 --> 01:20:48,080
She guessed 25 to 35 on Urban and 30 to 40 on Club and gave it a weak bump.

1379
01:20:48,080 --> 01:20:56,080
I got y'all. I got y'all. Look, on November 26th, Candy said, Very, very lush and warm vocals. Nice beat.

1380
01:20:56,080 --> 01:21:04,080
Cineminal ballad with romantic vibes. I enjoyed the song personally, but wasn't sure if it did enough good for a strong bump.

1381
01:21:04,080 --> 01:21:09,080
The rhythm was basic and at some points the vocals almost got lost under the beat. I still liked it though.

1382
01:21:09,080 --> 01:21:14,080
Gave it a 40 to 50 on Urban and a 40 to 50 on Club, but then I weak bumped it.

1383
01:21:14,080 --> 01:21:20,080
But me, myself, on November 26th, I said, Strong vocals from the start. I wonder who mixed this.

1384
01:21:20,080 --> 01:21:29,080
The vocals shine, but the beat is lower than the vocals. It's not a horrible song. I do want the beat to be louder and the vocals to be lower.

1385
01:21:29,080 --> 01:21:34,080
The vocals are dope, they're strong, and they are also well written, but they are loud. I said loud so many fucking times.

1386
01:21:34,080 --> 01:21:40,080
I thought the issue with the vocals were the speakers. Nope. I went outside and listened to it in my car.

1387
01:21:40,080 --> 01:21:45,080
I listened to it in my headphones. I'm actually listening to it while I rewrite this, and I wonder how it got this far.

1388
01:21:45,080 --> 01:21:52,080
The vocals are amazing. They're just loud. I think I said 40 to 50 Club, and then I said it's not going to chart on Urban.

1389
01:21:52,080 --> 01:21:58,080
And I also gave it a weak bump. Hey, you broke that bitch down. That Urban's going to hurt you though, because it's a beauty at 42.

1390
01:21:58,080 --> 01:22:03,080
You didn't think that was going to chart at all? You looked at that as an engineer, didn't you? He did.

1391
01:22:03,080 --> 01:22:12,080
Yeah, because you broke that bitch down. You know what's crazy? I'm doing that now. It could be some shit I see on my phone.

1392
01:22:12,080 --> 01:22:19,080
For instance, Snoop and Dre is dropping Missionary. Friday, Missionary come out.

1393
01:22:19,080 --> 01:22:27,080
The songs I've been hearing, I was just like, damn, these shit ain't catching my attention like that. They're not bad.

1394
01:22:27,080 --> 01:22:33,080
I like the song. The first one they put out, then the second one, and I like the new one with Sting.

1395
01:22:33,080 --> 01:22:39,080
But when I listened to it, I had to make myself like it. I don't know if that makes sense.

1396
01:22:39,080 --> 01:22:40,080
It makes perfect sense.

1397
01:22:40,080 --> 01:22:45,080
I put the headphones on, and I'm like, oh yeah, this shit banging. You know what I'm saying?

1398
01:22:45,080 --> 01:22:53,080
So I feel where you're coming from with that, bro. I feel your breakdown, dog. You broke that bitch down, bro.

1399
01:22:53,080 --> 01:22:57,080
I feel that not charting on Urban is going to hurt you a little bit.

1400
01:22:57,080 --> 01:22:59,080
It is. It's important to you right now.

1401
01:22:59,080 --> 01:23:01,080
But that was a nice song.

1402
01:23:01,080 --> 01:23:02,080
It was. I like the song.

1403
01:23:02,080 --> 01:23:10,080
So to kind of dispute AM, Christina and I came from different sides on this. So Christina in Tampa, November 26, she said,

1404
01:23:10,080 --> 01:23:24,080
Ella Mae is just a whole vibe on her own, and I love her music. This has a nice, smooth R&B beat that her voice really compliments. Distinct vocals, great mix, and you can tell that this song is an Ella Mae song. I really like the smooth vibe that the song gives off and the sentiment.

1405
01:23:24,080 --> 01:23:33,080
And I'm sure the song would just make it far up the charts. She guessed top 10 at Urban and 15 to 25 at Club. She gave it a weak bump. I think that's a bit high.

1406
01:23:33,080 --> 01:23:37,080
That's crazy. If she put it up that high, why she gave it a weak bump?

1407
01:23:37,080 --> 01:23:41,080
That's what I'm saying. I would think you would strong bump it if you felt it was a top 10.

1408
01:23:41,080 --> 01:23:45,080
It's okay, but I'm not going to be listening to that shit every day. Thank you.

1409
01:23:45,080 --> 01:23:51,080
Top 10 is a banger. Why would you give that a weak bump?

1410
01:23:51,080 --> 01:24:01,080
Interesting. And then I closed it out on November 26. I said she enters her 30s in motherhood this August with a new 3 EP, and here's the outro ballad turned into a new single.

1411
01:24:01,080 --> 01:24:11,080
Buzzing online already how it's dedicated to an NBA player and her baby daddy Jason Tatum. Simple harp strings, crickety high hats, warm keys, pads, bass clashes, and the whole nine.

1412
01:24:11,080 --> 01:24:21,080
Minimalistic opening with a silky tone and all types of vocal runs. Nice pen describing her catering to a good man. And her gratefulness after all these failed relationships.

1413
01:24:21,080 --> 01:24:28,080
She had really good imagery of them sharing breakfast too. Heartfelt, relatable, well written, well mixed, not over sung.

1414
01:24:28,080 --> 01:24:35,080
To me it was a slow burner as it took me a couple listens to actually like it more. So as I listened to it more, I liked it more.

1415
01:24:35,080 --> 01:24:45,080
So while I think it's getting Curiosity at Club first with the type of mustard beat that it has behind it, I feel it will debut first on Urban and Higher also.

1416
01:24:45,080 --> 01:24:55,080
So I predicted 10 through 20 at Urban and 35 to 40 at Club. I'm sorry, 30 to 40 at Club. And I also said please ship this to Adult R&B also. So weak bump.

1417
01:24:55,080 --> 01:25:06,080
I think I like your answer. I probably would have put it up more with the Club. But other than that, I'm thinking on what you're saying. Like I would have said the same shit.

1418
01:25:06,080 --> 01:25:14,080
Even though I haven't heard it yet. Slow burners mean a lot to me as a DJ. Yeah, slow burners are the ones. You know what I'm saying?

1419
01:25:14,080 --> 01:25:27,080
You got to think right now it's so weird how music is displayed and put on wax and how people listen to it. It could be some shit that was dropped August and it's going to catch on in February.

1420
01:25:27,080 --> 01:25:39,080
And that's where we at right now with music. And the way y'all describing this song, I haven't even heard it yet. And it's Mustards on the Beat with Ellen Mae talking about Jason Tate. That song's gonna fly.

1421
01:25:39,080 --> 01:25:45,080
Just off of that. And remember you like the co-producer guilt trip or glitter trip like AM said.

1422
01:25:45,080 --> 01:25:54,080
Yeah, glitter trip. But nah, I'm gonna definitely check that one out, man. Because I'm a big fan of Ellen Mae. I love Ellen Mae, man.

1423
01:25:54,080 --> 01:26:01,080
Reviews aside, we were pretty unified on that one. That was six reviewers, six weak bumps. So we were pretty unified on this one. This one, not so much.

1424
01:26:01,080 --> 01:26:13,080
So for the next one and the last one with It's My Ego Ice Cube, we had Rob that week but no AM for this one. We had four total reviewers resulting in two weak bumps, one weak dump, and one strong dump.

1425
01:26:13,080 --> 01:26:18,080
So we were kind of all over the place of this record. First of all, you've heard this record, D-Rug?

1426
01:26:18,080 --> 01:26:22,080
Yes. By the way, shout out to Ice Cube. Got a hard ass album right now.

1427
01:26:22,080 --> 01:26:23,080
Shout out to Ice Cube.

1428
01:26:23,080 --> 01:26:27,080
Cube album hard as fuck, bruh. You gave us the Cube album, bruh.

1429
01:26:27,080 --> 01:26:30,080
D-Rug, talk to my heart here. What did you think about It's My Ego?

1430
01:26:30,080 --> 01:26:39,080
It's my ego. I loved it. I loved it. I loved the video for it. I love... Ice Cube is one of them guys that's in my top 10. You know what I'm saying?

1431
01:26:39,080 --> 01:26:48,080
So I love when Ice Cube get in his rapper mode. And Ice Cube is in Ice Cube mode if y'all haven't heard that album yet. You know what I'm saying?

1432
01:26:48,080 --> 01:26:59,080
That's one of the albums I have in rotation right now. And put it like this, you just got to be an Ice Cube fan to love it. And Ice Cube always made hits. He's like Will Smith, bro. You know what I'm saying?

1433
01:26:59,080 --> 01:27:05,080
So D-Rug, they are movie stars that can still rap. They're still at the top of their game when they need to be.

1434
01:27:05,080 --> 01:27:09,080
D-Rug, your Miami twin right here definitely disagreed with us.

1435
01:27:09,080 --> 01:27:15,080
I did. I did. You're my twin, but me and you, we on the same page on this one, dawg.

1436
01:27:15,080 --> 01:27:17,080
No, no. It's cool. It's cool. It's cool.

1437
01:27:17,080 --> 01:27:19,080
Because you know something?

1438
01:27:19,080 --> 01:27:24,080
I feel like Ice Cube is in the quiet taste when it comes to rapping right now.

1439
01:27:24,080 --> 01:27:26,080
Did you listen to the War and Peace album?

1440
01:27:26,080 --> 01:27:31,080
Yes, I loved that one. My favorite song on that album is Get a Vet.

1441
01:27:31,080 --> 01:27:35,080
Right, Get a Vet. Or you could bet I'm a vet.

1442
01:27:35,080 --> 01:27:37,080
That's the greatest Ice Cube song ever made.

1443
01:27:37,080 --> 01:27:39,080
I love the production of Get a Vet by the way.

1444
01:27:39,080 --> 01:27:40,080
But the peace side.

1445
01:27:40,080 --> 01:27:41,080
Was trash.

1446
01:27:41,080 --> 01:27:49,080
Yeah. So okay. So you know, I love me some Ice Cube, but that motherfucking album, that war side was like that.

1447
01:27:49,080 --> 01:27:51,080
Yeah, war was good. Peace was bullshit.

1448
01:27:51,080 --> 01:27:58,080
I did not like this. It's my ego shit. I strong dumped the hell out of it.

1449
01:27:58,080 --> 01:28:08,080
I said, I'm going to say it. I was the only strong dump. On November 19th, I said Ice Cube's too rich to be making music like this.

1450
01:28:08,080 --> 01:28:18,080
Listen, I do like the OG West Coast vibe, the beat rings.

1451
01:28:18,080 --> 01:28:24,080
And of course, Ice Cube's legendary voice. But the song just ain't doing it.

1452
01:28:24,080 --> 01:28:27,080
Somebody else needed to see that hook.

1453
01:28:27,080 --> 01:28:30,080
The flow of the lyrics should have used some work.

1454
01:28:30,080 --> 01:28:36,080
It would have been better if this would have come out in 1995.

1455
01:28:36,080 --> 01:28:39,080
Bitch, he's had hits in 2004 and 2006.

1456
01:28:39,080 --> 01:28:41,080
No, Ice Cube's name.

1457
01:28:41,080 --> 01:28:47,080
This is the problem we have with the old guys. Like we can't do shit because people say stuff like that.

1458
01:28:47,080 --> 01:28:51,080
No, but he owns the big three, dog.

1459
01:28:51,080 --> 01:28:55,080
Listen, Ice Cube's one of my favorite artists, but I'm passing on this.

1460
01:28:55,080 --> 01:29:02,080
I said it was going to be 15 to 25 on Rhythmic Club, which is a blessing, and 25 to 35 on Urban.

1461
01:29:02,080 --> 01:29:09,080
I gave it a strong dump, dog, that just wasn't cube. And yo, Westside Connection is in my rotation.

1462
01:29:09,080 --> 01:29:16,080
I ain't mad at you, dog. That's a very good statement. I can't argue with that.

1463
01:29:16,080 --> 01:29:20,080
You know, like we doing it for real. We here. He's so rich.

1464
01:29:20,080 --> 01:29:21,080
Rob.

1465
01:29:21,080 --> 01:29:27,080
You know what made me like that song, bro? Is I seen the video first.

1466
01:29:27,080 --> 01:29:33,080
D-Rug, the benefit you have with videos is when we get sent it for radio, there is no video yet for it.

1467
01:29:33,080 --> 01:29:36,080
But you know me, I'm an internet man, so you know I be on the internet.

1468
01:29:36,080 --> 01:29:40,080
So the day he dropped that shit, I watched it and I was like, oh yeah, that shit ride.

1469
01:29:40,080 --> 01:29:41,080
Yeah.

1470
01:29:41,080 --> 01:29:46,080
I like the video, you know what I'm saying? Because you know, sometimes you got to see the visual of a song to like it.

1471
01:29:46,080 --> 01:29:50,080
Yeah. So I mildly disagree, as you can hear with Rob, just a little bit.

1472
01:29:50,080 --> 01:29:56,080
On November 19th, I said his six year returns a Westside vibe, unapologetically being himself,

1473
01:29:56,080 --> 01:29:59,080
smacking people and standing firm on his beliefs.

1474
01:29:59,080 --> 01:30:05,080
EA Ski provides chilled keyboards, snappy drums, snares, and that faint guitar adds a G-Funk spice.

1475
01:30:05,080 --> 01:30:09,080
Easy laid back hook sets the theme, it's easy to say, for radio.

1476
01:30:09,080 --> 01:30:12,080
Lyrics are a bit mad, but good vocal mix.

1477
01:30:12,080 --> 01:30:15,080
Couple cool bars like, I was Kendrick before Kendrick, I like that line.

1478
01:30:15,080 --> 01:30:21,080
He's not the sharp, hungry early 90s cube I grew up on, I agree with Rob on that one.

1479
01:30:21,080 --> 01:30:23,080
Yet he's still a rebellious voice and presence.

1480
01:30:23,080 --> 01:30:30,080
Wish he tried a slightly better flow and swear I, God, I remember CeeLo Green on a similar beat to this.

1481
01:30:30,080 --> 01:30:31,080
I just can't find it.

1482
01:30:31,080 --> 01:30:38,080
Heard the rest of the album, including a larger remix of this song with Killer Mike and Busta Rhymes that I performed more than the single.

1483
01:30:38,080 --> 01:30:41,080
But it's decent quality and has club appeal.

1484
01:30:41,080 --> 01:30:47,080
In my opinion, it stands out in 2024 against the microwaved repetitive club trap that gets old super quick.

1485
01:30:47,080 --> 01:30:55,080
So I think with a name like Ice Cube, his presence and that type of hook, it's likely going to be 15 to 25 at club and 35 to 45 at urban.

1486
01:30:55,080 --> 01:30:57,080
I give it a weak bump.

1487
01:30:57,080 --> 01:30:58,080
I ain't mad at that.

1488
01:30:58,080 --> 01:31:01,080
Strong bump, strong dump crazy rap.

1489
01:31:01,080 --> 01:31:06,080
I'll never listen to that shit again.

1490
01:31:06,080 --> 01:31:08,080
Damn.

1491
01:31:08,080 --> 01:31:10,080
Hey, look, even though I said I'll never listen to that shit again.

1492
01:31:10,080 --> 01:31:15,080
I've been listening to D-Rub for three weeks, cuz.

1493
01:31:15,080 --> 01:31:18,080
Hey, bro, I said I ain't never listen to that shit again.

1494
01:31:18,080 --> 01:31:20,080
I'll never listen to that shit again.

1495
01:31:20,080 --> 01:31:21,080
God damn it.

1496
01:31:21,080 --> 01:31:23,080
You ice cold, bro.

1497
01:31:23,080 --> 01:31:24,080
Not at all.

1498
01:31:24,080 --> 01:31:25,080
Where the ice cold at?

1499
01:31:25,080 --> 01:31:34,080
I feel like I said the same shit about, hey, one thing about me, the more y'all talking to me, the more I'm going to get y'all the rawest fucking opinion on the song.

1500
01:31:34,080 --> 01:31:35,080
That's what we want, though.

1501
01:31:35,080 --> 01:31:37,080
If I like the song, I like the song.

1502
01:31:37,080 --> 01:31:38,080
If I don't, I don't.

1503
01:31:38,080 --> 01:31:40,080
But it's a good song.

1504
01:31:40,080 --> 01:31:41,080
It's a great song.

1505
01:31:41,080 --> 01:31:42,080
It's not bad.

1506
01:31:42,080 --> 01:31:45,080
You just give a strong dump to a great song.

1507
01:31:45,080 --> 01:31:46,080
What the fuck?

1508
01:31:46,080 --> 01:31:47,080
I ain't listening to that shit.

1509
01:31:47,080 --> 01:31:51,080
Listen, you might not like mangoes.

1510
01:31:51,080 --> 01:31:52,080
That don't mean it's a good mango.

1511
01:31:52,080 --> 01:31:53,080
It's not a good mango.

1512
01:31:53,080 --> 01:31:55,080
I just I just like your first line.

1513
01:31:55,080 --> 01:31:58,080
You were like he's too rich to make a song like this.

1514
01:31:58,080 --> 01:31:59,080
Bro, give it up, man.

1515
01:31:59,080 --> 01:32:00,080
We tired.

1516
01:32:00,080 --> 01:32:01,080
Are you done?

1517
01:32:01,080 --> 01:32:02,080
No, man, we need you.

1518
01:32:02,080 --> 01:32:05,080
He's not my son.

1519
01:32:05,080 --> 01:32:10,080
We need his son for movies, but we need Ice Cube in hip hop, bro.

1520
01:32:10,080 --> 01:32:11,080
We need him, bro.

1521
01:32:11,080 --> 01:32:12,080
He's still a rebellious voice.

1522
01:32:12,080 --> 01:32:16,080
He's one of my favorite artists, but that song just wasn't doing it.

1523
01:32:16,080 --> 01:32:17,080
I love the album.

1524
01:32:17,080 --> 01:32:19,080
I like the album a lot, too.

1525
01:32:19,080 --> 01:32:22,080
I love the album and we need that, bro.

1526
01:32:22,080 --> 01:32:26,080
Like sometimes I need to tap in because shout out to all my old school emcees that then

1527
01:32:26,080 --> 01:32:27,080
came out this year.

1528
01:32:27,080 --> 01:32:30,080
You know, Rakim dropped the album this year.

1529
01:32:30,080 --> 01:32:32,080
MC Light dropped the album this year.

1530
01:32:32,080 --> 01:32:34,080
LL Cool J dropped the album this year.

1531
01:32:34,080 --> 01:32:35,080
Ice Cube dropped.

1532
01:32:35,080 --> 01:32:41,080
So, you know, I love to see those those those people I grew up on do quality music.

1533
01:32:41,080 --> 01:32:42,080
You know what I'm saying?

1534
01:32:42,080 --> 01:32:47,080
It might not sound like the it might not sound like what Ice Cube 93.

1535
01:32:47,080 --> 01:32:49,080
It ain't gonna sound like that.

1536
01:32:49,080 --> 01:32:51,080
That's like 30 years ago.

1537
01:32:51,080 --> 01:32:52,080
Ain't no way he going back to that.

1538
01:32:52,080 --> 01:32:53,080
Like you know what I'm saying?

1539
01:32:53,080 --> 01:32:57,080
But like like like Doc said, you know, he's still rebellious.

1540
01:32:57,080 --> 01:32:59,080
He's still he's still Ice Cube.

1541
01:32:59,080 --> 01:33:00,080
You know what I'm saying?

1542
01:33:00,080 --> 01:33:02,080
And he's slapping motherfuckers in the record.

1543
01:33:02,080 --> 01:33:05,080
He slapped people like Will did Chris.

1544
01:33:05,080 --> 01:33:07,080
I ain't listening to that shit.

1545
01:33:07,080 --> 01:33:09,080
All right. All right.

1546
01:33:09,080 --> 01:33:13,080
All I know seems like both Missing and Nigel were split as well.

1547
01:33:13,080 --> 01:33:18,080
On November the 19th, Nigel said when this song dropped, I really wanted to love it.

1548
01:33:18,080 --> 01:33:19,080
It's not horrible or bad.

1549
01:33:19,080 --> 01:33:21,080
It might just be the beat to me.

1550
01:33:21,080 --> 01:33:22,080
The first verse is OK.

1551
01:33:22,080 --> 01:33:24,080
Second verse has some steam to it.

1552
01:33:24,080 --> 01:33:27,080
And the third verse, Cube was angry, which is cool.

1553
01:33:27,080 --> 01:33:29,080
I just bought him with that.

1554
01:33:29,080 --> 01:33:34,080
I was expecting similar finesse to his recent group album, West Matt Westmore,

1555
01:33:34,080 --> 01:33:37,080
better using the vet status that he has.

1556
01:33:37,080 --> 01:33:39,080
Beats too happy in my opinion.

1557
01:33:39,080 --> 01:33:42,080
Though with both coming back, I honestly would have loved.

1558
01:33:42,080 --> 01:33:43,080
OK, I got it.

1559
01:33:43,080 --> 01:33:45,080
I honestly would have loved the Redman feature here.

1560
01:33:45,080 --> 01:33:48,080
He says since Redman is rapping again, I got it.

1561
01:33:48,080 --> 01:33:52,080
Wanted something a little darker and melodic for Cube himself, but the hook fits radio well.

1562
01:33:52,080 --> 01:33:57,080
My guess is 25 to 35 Club, 30 to 40 for Urban, and I gave it a weeb.

1563
01:33:57,080 --> 01:34:00,080
Vice versa. On 19th of November, this is Missing.

1564
01:34:00,080 --> 01:34:02,080
She said Cube returns with his.

1565
01:34:02,080 --> 01:34:06,080
While his presence is undeniable, the song feels a little dated.

1566
01:34:06,080 --> 01:34:11,080
The beat's heavy with West Coast funk influences, a booming bass line, and 90 synths.

1567
01:34:11,080 --> 01:34:16,080
Cube's flow is intense, but the hook falls flat and lacks the punch needed to elevate the song.

1568
01:34:16,080 --> 01:34:19,080
I feel like this is like a throwback to something fresh.

1569
01:34:19,080 --> 01:34:23,080
Respect the Cube, yet I think it misses the mark for today's radio market.

1570
01:34:23,080 --> 01:34:27,080
Maybe a 40 to 50 for Urban and a 40 to 50 for Rhythmic Club.

1571
01:34:27,080 --> 01:34:29,080
She also gave it a weak dump.

1572
01:34:29,080 --> 01:34:31,080
It's at 29 at Club right now.

1573
01:34:31,080 --> 01:34:33,080
Let me just let everyone know that.

1574
01:34:33,080 --> 01:34:35,080
Oh yeah, it's a phenomenal song.

1575
01:34:35,080 --> 01:34:37,080
29 at Club right now. It's doing better at Club.

1576
01:34:37,080 --> 01:34:41,080
And you heard me in the review. I think it's going to do better at Club than Urban.

1577
01:34:41,080 --> 01:34:43,080
It's at 29 right now at Club.

1578
01:34:43,080 --> 01:34:44,080
29? Wow.

1579
01:34:44,080 --> 01:34:49,080
1,171 spins per day last week on FM Radio. Yes.

1580
01:34:49,080 --> 01:34:50,080
It's a great song.

1581
01:34:50,080 --> 01:34:52,080
Hey, one time for Ice Cube, dog.

1582
01:34:52,080 --> 01:34:55,080
This guy ain't like that shit. I don't mean no respect.

1583
01:34:55,080 --> 01:34:59,080
Yeah, there's nothing wrong with not liking the song.

1584
01:34:59,080 --> 01:35:04,080
Yeah, I just, I just, you know, I'm not going to put that in my car, but it's cool.

1585
01:35:04,080 --> 01:35:08,080
We stuck in this generation where a motherfucker can't say they don't like something.

1586
01:35:08,080 --> 01:35:10,080
Like, you know what I mean? It's totally understandable.

1587
01:35:10,080 --> 01:35:12,080
Like, you know what I mean?

1588
01:35:12,080 --> 01:35:16,080
All right. So, okay. It's time for just the stats.

1589
01:35:16,080 --> 01:35:20,080
Here we separate radio from streaming and the men from the boys.

1590
01:35:20,080 --> 01:35:25,080
Everyone knows the old saying, men lie, women lie, numbers don't.

1591
01:35:25,080 --> 01:35:29,080
So let's go through the more meaningful stats and movement on US radio.

1592
01:35:29,080 --> 01:35:31,080
Doc, hit us with the big winners.

1593
01:35:31,080 --> 01:35:36,080
All right. The three biggest risers on Urban Radio this week was number one,

1594
01:35:36,080 --> 01:35:44,080
a Gats, which is all girls are the same to, I guess, subtitled insecure by juice world featuring Nicky and Minaj.

1595
01:35:44,080 --> 01:35:47,080
It's up 10 spots from number 44 to number 34.

1596
01:35:47,080 --> 01:35:53,080
It had one hundred and three point four percent more spins and it's now at one thousand and twenty five spins per day.

1597
01:35:53,080 --> 01:35:55,080
The second biggest riser was sticky.

1598
01:35:55,080 --> 01:35:59,080
Tyler, the creator featuring Glorilla, Sexy Red and Little Wayne.

1599
01:35:59,080 --> 01:36:01,080
It's up seven spots from number twenty three.

1600
01:36:01,080 --> 01:36:03,080
That's that shit.

1601
01:36:03,080 --> 01:36:05,080
That's that shit. Yes, sir.

1602
01:36:05,080 --> 01:36:09,080
I think it's up seven spots from twenty three to sixteen.

1603
01:36:09,080 --> 01:36:16,080
Forty seven point three percent more with now at two thousand four hundred and eighty five spins per day.

1604
01:36:16,080 --> 01:36:18,080
And the third biggest riser was fat by the baby.

1605
01:36:18,080 --> 01:36:24,080
That's someone that one's a little surprised to me because that's got that whole Jersey be more type of that shit right there.

1606
01:36:24,080 --> 01:36:25,080
Yeah, I like that.

1607
01:36:25,080 --> 01:36:28,080
But you know, baby, been doing no type of songs for the last couple of years.

1608
01:36:28,080 --> 01:36:29,080
Yeah, man, for real.

1609
01:36:29,080 --> 01:36:33,080
Yeah, this is him trying to capture the lightening the bottle from the last one, I think.

1610
01:36:33,080 --> 01:36:38,080
But it's up seven spots as it is performing well from twenty twenty nine to twenty two now.

1611
01:36:38,080 --> 01:36:43,080
Twenty eight percent more and it's now up to one thousand five hundred and sixty eight spins per day.

1612
01:36:43,080 --> 01:36:46,080
Before we move on, I'd like to know from you, Mr.

1613
01:36:46,080 --> 01:36:53,080
D-Rug, of those three biggest risers, who would be your like dark horse to kind of to pop off that you like the most?

1614
01:36:53,080 --> 01:36:57,080
Um, I definitely got to say that Tyler, bro.

1615
01:36:57,080 --> 01:37:00,080
Yes, I figured that was my guess for you.

1616
01:37:00,080 --> 01:37:03,080
That Tyler that Tyler because one thing shout out to Tyler Creator.

1617
01:37:03,080 --> 01:37:05,080
Um, he had a dope ass.

1618
01:37:05,080 --> 01:37:07,080
I fucks with Tyler Creator, man.

1619
01:37:07,080 --> 01:37:10,080
I like I like his creativeness.

1620
01:37:10,080 --> 01:37:12,080
I like how dope he is.

1621
01:37:12,080 --> 01:37:14,080
I like because, you know, Tyler could spit.

1622
01:37:14,080 --> 01:37:15,080
He can he can do all that shit.

1623
01:37:15,080 --> 01:37:16,080
He's different.

1624
01:37:16,080 --> 01:37:18,080
I love everything about Tyler.

1625
01:37:18,080 --> 01:37:25,080
And when that album dropped and when that song came on, that's the song I press repeat on.

1626
01:37:25,080 --> 01:37:29,080
Like, you know, I backed that song up because it was just so different.

1627
01:37:29,080 --> 01:37:30,080
You know what I'm saying? Come on. It's him.

1628
01:37:30,080 --> 01:37:35,080
Sexy Red fucking gorilla like they blew in.

1629
01:37:35,080 --> 01:37:40,080
You wouldn't expect them motherfuckers to do that type of song or whatever.

1630
01:37:40,080 --> 01:37:47,080
You know, and it had the whole it had the whole like high school beating on the beat to I thought it was different.

1631
01:37:47,080 --> 01:37:52,080
It's that's definitely going to be a slow burner, man, because one thing about Tyler, bro.

1632
01:37:52,080 --> 01:37:53,080
Tyler's the man, bro.

1633
01:37:53,080 --> 01:37:58,080
And he actually pulls in those Grammys, too, unlike the man, bro.

1634
01:37:58,080 --> 01:38:01,080
The other rapper last couple of albums been crazy.

1635
01:38:01,080 --> 01:38:05,080
You know, he's a big for real fan like he he studied.

1636
01:38:05,080 --> 01:38:06,080
He studies for real.

1637
01:38:06,080 --> 01:38:14,080
So, you know, I mean, anybody anybody that studies for real and get into that to that lane that for reals in is always going to do good.

1638
01:38:14,080 --> 01:38:16,080
So shout out to Tyler creative for that one.

1639
01:38:16,080 --> 01:38:18,080
But that's going to be my dark horse.

1640
01:38:18,080 --> 01:38:20,080
I'm a big I'm a big Tyler fan.

1641
01:38:20,080 --> 01:38:22,080
I'm a big for our fan.

1642
01:38:22,080 --> 01:38:23,080
That's you.

1643
01:38:23,080 --> 01:38:25,080
Did you see that for real movie?

1644
01:38:25,080 --> 01:38:26,080
Yeah, no, I see.

1645
01:38:26,080 --> 01:38:27,080
I see a couple of interviews.

1646
01:38:27,080 --> 01:38:28,080
I got to watch the movie.

1647
01:38:28,080 --> 01:38:29,080
I love that movie.

1648
01:38:29,080 --> 01:38:30,080
The Lego movie.

1649
01:38:30,080 --> 01:38:31,080
That's crazy.

1650
01:38:31,080 --> 01:38:32,080
Exactly what you talk about.

1651
01:38:32,080 --> 01:38:38,080
So with that being said, we all want to say on the same page age, the biggest three drops this week.

1652
01:38:38,080 --> 01:38:41,080

1655
01:38:49,080 --> 01:38:51,080
Number two is going to be on that money.

I told you I like the song.

01:39:39,080 --> 01:39:42,080
Yeah, we all love this record actually currently up.

1663
01:39:42,080 --> 01:39:43,080
I got to check that.

1664
01:39:43,080 --> 01:39:49,080
I hear my track the video the video they got like some whole Western vibe about the cowgirl.

1665
01:39:49,080 --> 01:39:51,080
I'm like just yeah it was great.

1666
01:39:51,080 --> 01:39:54,080

Currently number twenty with two thousand one hundred and ninety two spins per day distributed by Death Row.

1671
01:40:20,080 --> 01:40:21,080
Yes.

1672
01:40:21,080 --> 01:40:23,080
I just interviewed him.

1673
01:40:23,080 --> 01:40:25,080
Oopsie. Oopsie. Oopsie.

1674
01:40:25,080 --> 01:40:27,080
Oh, fuck. Oh, shit.

1675
01:40:27,080 --> 01:40:29,080
I didn't know that.

1676
01:40:29,080 --> 01:40:31,080
Hold on. Hold on.

1677
01:40:31,080 --> 01:40:32,080
I got to take a shot.

1678
01:40:32,080 --> 01:40:33,080
I said I were.

1679
01:40:33,080 --> 01:40:35,080
Yeah, you did.

1680
01:40:35,080 --> 01:40:37,080
It's going to be an early night for me, fellas.

1681
01:40:37,080 --> 01:40:42,080
Salud my brothers.

1682
01:40:42,080 --> 01:40:45,080
Salud, bro.

1683
01:40:45,080 --> 01:40:46,080
Well, shout out to October London, man.

1684
01:40:46,080 --> 01:40:51,080
I got a chance to eye him at the Funk Fest we had this year, man.

1685
01:40:51,080 --> 01:40:53,080
Real down to earth dude.

1686
01:40:53,080 --> 01:40:54,080
I'm a big fan of him.

1687
01:40:54,080 --> 01:40:56,080
He sounded like Marvin Gaye.

1688
01:40:56,080 --> 01:40:57,080
I love it.

1689
01:40:57,080 --> 01:41:00,080
Like what I like about this new project to the first album.

1690
01:41:00,080 --> 01:41:02,080
He sounded just like Marvin.

1691
01:41:02,080 --> 01:41:03,080
Yeah.

1692
01:41:03,080 --> 01:41:07,080
Now this one now this one is kind of expanding out and there's like a little bit of Sam Cooke.

1693
01:41:07,080 --> 01:41:09,080
There's a lot of Stevie Wonder.

1694
01:41:09,080 --> 01:41:11,080
Like he's doing a lot of different sounds.

1695
01:41:11,080 --> 01:41:19,080
You know, that's why Snoop signed him is because he said that he gave him that old school feeling of what his mom and him used to listen to.

1696
01:41:19,080 --> 01:41:21,080
And he couldn't believe that coming from a young dude.

1697
01:41:21,080 --> 01:41:23,080
Like, I mean, that's what's up.

1698
01:41:23,080 --> 01:41:27,080
I probably probably because, you know, I got a I got a new show debut on TV.

1699
01:41:27,080 --> 01:41:29,080
So, Sean, the Man Face TV.

1700
01:41:29,080 --> 01:41:30,080
We back.

1701
01:41:30,080 --> 01:41:34,080
You got a fan right here, D-Rub, right here all day.

1702
01:41:34,080 --> 01:41:36,080
I'm talking with Rob from the mob.

1703
01:41:36,080 --> 01:41:39,080
I'm trying to join the mob, man.

1704
01:41:39,080 --> 01:41:40,080
Yo D-Rub.

1705
01:41:40,080 --> 01:41:41,080
I'll be just fighting this baby.

1706
01:41:41,080 --> 01:41:43,080
Come see me please, dog.

1707
01:41:43,080 --> 01:41:48,080
D-Rub, we have a segment right before you guests come on and literally it's called What You Drinking On.

1708
01:41:48,080 --> 01:41:51,080
And this dude always comes with the fancy special shit.

1709
01:41:51,080 --> 01:41:54,080
So he's got like bottles that are shaped in the letter, the number eight.

1710
01:41:54,080 --> 01:41:56,080
Like, what is that?

1711
01:41:56,080 --> 01:41:57,080
What is that, by the way, Rob?

1712
01:41:57,080 --> 01:41:58,080
Educating.

1713
01:41:58,080 --> 01:42:00,080
This is Kendall Jenner's tequila, man.

1714
01:42:00,080 --> 01:42:03,080
This is Kendall Jenner.

1715
01:42:03,080 --> 01:42:06,080
Kendall Jenner really identifies herself here as nah.

1716
01:42:06,080 --> 01:42:07,080
No, man.

1717
01:42:07,080 --> 01:42:08,080
This is her tequila, man.

1718
01:42:08,080 --> 01:42:09,080
I'm going to represent.

1719
01:42:09,080 --> 01:42:11,080
She show your boy some love.

1720
01:42:11,080 --> 01:42:12,080
And I'm a big fan.

1721
01:42:12,080 --> 01:42:14,080
So I'm going to support her brand all day.

1722
01:42:14,080 --> 01:42:15,080
One time.

1723
01:42:15,080 --> 01:42:16,080
One hundred.

1724
01:42:16,080 --> 01:42:17,080
One hundred.

1725
01:42:17,080 --> 01:42:18,080
I don't care how big you are or how small you are.

1726
01:42:18,080 --> 01:42:23,080
When you're on your journey to do big things, man, I got nothing to do but support you.

1727
01:42:23,080 --> 01:42:24,080
Hell yeah.

1728
01:42:24,080 --> 01:42:25,080
One hundred.

1729
01:42:25,080 --> 01:42:26,080
One hundred.

1730
01:42:26,080 --> 01:42:27,080
One hundred.

1731
01:42:27,080 --> 01:42:28,080
That's just how the way I am.

1732
01:42:28,080 --> 01:42:32,080
And anybody that knows me knows that this is the truth.

1733
01:42:32,080 --> 01:42:33,080
All right.

1734
01:42:33,080 --> 01:42:38,080
So to close out segment five, the 100 percent facts, we're moving on to radio RIPs this

1735
01:42:38,080 --> 01:42:41,080
week and in December 1st, 2024.

1736
01:42:41,080 --> 01:42:42,080
So, yeah, I'm fair.

1737
01:42:42,080 --> 01:42:43,080
I'm unbiased.

1738
01:42:43,080 --> 01:42:46,080
I like to review all music, but I'm also a little crazy, too.

1739
01:42:46,080 --> 01:42:49,080
I generally hate when a song gets repetitively played out.

1740
01:42:49,080 --> 01:42:52,080
I just that's grinds my gears a little bit.

1741
01:42:52,080 --> 01:42:54,080
So I think this is one of my favorite parts.

1742
01:42:54,080 --> 01:42:56,080
I hate when she gets, whoa, was everybody else star?

1743
01:42:56,080 --> 01:42:58,080
At least to what I don't like it no more.

1744
01:42:58,080 --> 01:42:59,080
Me too.

1745
01:42:59,080 --> 01:43:00,080
Doc always is excited.

1746
01:43:00,080 --> 01:43:05,080
If I could put a clapping in it and it's tracking on it, Doc would be the all hands, all the

1747
01:43:05,080 --> 01:43:06,080
hands.

1748
01:43:06,080 --> 01:43:07,080
He'd clone himself.

1749
01:43:07,080 --> 01:43:12,080
Here's a final farewell to the singles who officially died and fell off national rotation

1750
01:43:12,080 --> 01:43:14,080
on commercial FM radio.

1751
01:43:14,080 --> 01:43:19,080
This week, we had six condolences to mourn and bury Rob as Doc often says, Why don't

1752
01:43:19,080 --> 01:43:23,080
you grab your shovel and let us know who?

1753
01:43:23,080 --> 01:43:25,080
That makes Rob laugh every single time.

1754
01:43:25,080 --> 01:43:28,080
Yeah, I have to grab my shovel really.

1755
01:43:28,080 --> 01:43:30,080
At number one, I like this track.

1756
01:43:30,080 --> 01:43:33,080
I'm sorry for me by low shimmy.

1757
01:43:33,080 --> 01:43:37,080
It was shipped mid September with a two and a half month run.

1758
01:43:37,080 --> 01:43:41,080
It peaked at number 28 in urban and number 30 on club.

1759
01:43:41,080 --> 01:43:43,080
It doesn't get no plaque.

1760
01:43:43,080 --> 01:43:45,080
It was a good track for me.

1761
01:43:45,080 --> 01:43:46,080
For me.

1762
01:43:46,080 --> 01:43:47,080
Yeah, for me.

1763
01:43:47,080 --> 01:43:50,080
Who was the song for me by low shimmy?

1764
01:43:50,080 --> 01:43:52,080
Who the fuck is little shimmy?

1765
01:43:52,080 --> 01:43:53,080
Yeah, that's exactly what I said.

1766
01:43:53,080 --> 01:43:55,080
But I like the track.

1767
01:43:55,080 --> 01:43:58,080
Little shitty, low shimmy.

1768
01:43:58,080 --> 01:44:00,080
Yo, the track is hot.

1769
01:44:00,080 --> 01:44:01,080
Okay.

1770
01:44:01,080 --> 01:44:02,080
Okay.

1771
01:44:02,080 --> 01:44:03,080
Yeah, I know he is the track.

1772
01:44:03,080 --> 01:44:05,080
So I thought so.

1773
01:44:05,080 --> 01:44:07,080
The track is not hot.

1774
01:44:07,080 --> 01:44:08,080
The track.

1775
01:44:08,080 --> 01:44:09,080
Yeah.

1776
01:44:09,080 --> 01:44:10,080
Put like this.

1777
01:44:10,080 --> 01:44:11,080
That's that.

1778
01:44:11,080 --> 01:44:12,080
That's that shit.

1779
01:44:12,080 --> 01:44:13,080
Mark.

1780
01:44:13,080 --> 01:44:17,080
He is like, and then number two, big, big things by young John featuring K Daniel.

1781
01:44:17,080 --> 01:44:18,080
It shipped late August.

1782
01:44:18,080 --> 01:44:23,080
It had a three and a half month run and it peaked at number 33 on urban.

1783
01:44:23,080 --> 01:44:26,080
It didn't get no plaque piggybacking Rob right now.

1784
01:44:26,080 --> 01:44:31,080
Just do it by Jalen Brown from the Celtics featuring ASAP Ferg ship.

1785
01:44:31,080 --> 01:44:33,080
Early October had a two month run on radio.

1786
01:44:33,080 --> 01:44:37,080
It peaked at number 36, but did not earn a plaque trash.

1787
01:44:37,080 --> 01:44:40,080
I, I, I, it was an okay track.

1788
01:44:40,080 --> 01:44:43,080
He actually has lyricism, but zero charisma.

1789
01:44:43,080 --> 01:44:44,080
That was the problem.

1790
01:44:44,080 --> 01:44:45,080
This is the NBA.

1791
01:44:45,080 --> 01:44:48,080
He's in the NBA.

1792
01:44:48,080 --> 01:44:49,080
We ain't playing that shit in the ride.

1793
01:44:49,080 --> 01:44:50,080
Hell no.

1794
01:44:50,080 --> 01:44:51,080
I don't want to do that again.

1795
01:44:51,080 --> 01:44:53,080
Shaq Shaq was the only NBA player I listened to.

1796
01:44:53,080 --> 01:44:54,080
That's it.

1797
01:44:54,080 --> 01:44:58,080
Now you, your boy who plays for the play for Damien Damien.

1798
01:44:58,080 --> 01:44:59,080
Yeah.

1799
01:44:59,080 --> 01:45:00,080
Yeah.

1800
01:45:00,080 --> 01:45:01,080
Damien Lillard.

1801
01:45:01,080 --> 01:45:02,080
Yes.

1802
01:45:02,080 --> 01:45:03,080
Damien Lillard.

1803
01:45:03,080 --> 01:45:04,080
Dope.

1804
01:45:04,080 --> 01:45:05,080
All right.

1805
01:45:05,080 --> 01:45:06,080
Number four.

1806
01:45:06,080 --> 01:45:07,080
We had 10 AM in Miami trillion who was Buster.

1807
01:45:07,080 --> 01:45:11,080
I'm a son by the way, shipped early August, had a four month run at radio, a climb to

1808
01:45:11,080 --> 01:45:15,080
number 23 at urban, but it did not sell and earn a plaque.

1809
01:45:15,080 --> 01:45:16,080
His budget ran out.

1810
01:45:16,080 --> 01:45:17,080
He ain't hanging.

1811
01:45:17,080 --> 01:45:18,080
He wasn't paying.

1812
01:45:18,080 --> 01:45:19,080
Dude, I didn't even know.

1813
01:45:19,080 --> 01:45:20,080
God damn bus.

1814
01:45:20,080 --> 01:45:24,080
I'm so there is, if I'm going to tell you the truth, that shit, we all kind of dumped it.

1815
01:45:24,080 --> 01:45:26,080
And I think it was like trash.

1816
01:45:26,080 --> 01:45:28,080
It was four strong dumps, one weak dump.

1817
01:45:28,080 --> 01:45:31,080
And literally we all kind of said the same thing.

1818
01:45:31,080 --> 01:45:34,080
This came out of Buster rhymes jeans.

1819
01:45:34,080 --> 01:45:35,080
Like what the fuck?

1820
01:45:35,080 --> 01:45:39,080
He's like, I haven't even heard bus around talk about that.

1821
01:45:39,080 --> 01:45:41,080
Now, let's write trash too.

1822
01:45:41,080 --> 01:45:42,080
Now, now I love bus.

1823
01:45:42,080 --> 01:45:43,080
No, I love Buster.

1824
01:45:43,080 --> 01:45:44,080
Don't say that.

1825
01:45:44,080 --> 01:45:45,080
Don't do that.

1826
01:45:45,080 --> 01:45:46,080
Buster.

1827
01:45:46,080 --> 01:45:47,080
Don't care what you think about me.

1828
01:45:47,080 --> 01:45:48,080
I'm not a shit.

1829
01:45:48,080 --> 01:45:49,080
Take that shit back.

1830
01:45:49,080 --> 01:45:50,080
All right.

1831
01:45:50,080 --> 01:45:51,080
So I got a bus.

1832
01:45:51,080 --> 01:45:57,080
I fucked a bus to two at the trillion.

1833
01:45:57,080 --> 01:45:59,080
That's that's a dope ass name.

1834
01:45:59,080 --> 01:46:04,080
No, that's name.

1835
01:46:04,080 --> 01:46:05,080
No skills.

1836
01:46:05,080 --> 01:46:09,080
I think it looked in the mirror.

1837
01:46:09,080 --> 01:46:10,080
That's what it is.

1838
01:46:10,080 --> 01:46:11,080
That's it.

1839
01:46:11,080 --> 01:46:12,080
Yeah.

1840
01:46:12,080 --> 01:46:13,080
What's that?

1841
01:46:13,080 --> 01:46:14,080
The billion trillion.

1842
01:46:14,080 --> 01:46:15,080
That's the same.

1843
01:46:15,080 --> 01:46:19,080
You guys see on that bitch with a money sign through that.

1844
01:46:19,080 --> 01:46:20,080
Oh, okay.

1845
01:46:20,080 --> 01:46:21,080
All right.

1846
01:46:21,080 --> 01:46:22,080
My bad.

1847
01:46:22,080 --> 01:46:23,080
My bad.

1848
01:46:23,080 --> 01:46:24,080
It's going to be weight on it.

1849
01:46:24,080 --> 01:46:25,080
Jeremiah featuring B.

1850
01:46:25,080 --> 01:46:32,080
Tiller and Chris Breezy ship late June, 5.5 month run pizza number eight and made it to

1851
01:46:32,080 --> 01:46:35,080
23 on a club club and it got a gold plaque.

1852
01:46:35,080 --> 01:46:36,080
I like that song.

1853
01:46:36,080 --> 01:46:37,080
I can hear it in my head.

1854
01:46:37,080 --> 01:46:38,080
Yeah, that's all crap, bro.

1855
01:46:38,080 --> 01:46:39,080
Shout out Bryson Tiller.

1856
01:46:39,080 --> 01:46:40,080
Yes, sir.

1857
01:46:40,080 --> 01:46:41,080
It's all three of them.

1858
01:46:41,080 --> 01:46:42,080
They just brought Chris.

1859
01:46:42,080 --> 01:46:43,080
They're killing it.

1860
01:46:43,080 --> 01:46:44,080
Hey, Jeremiah.

1861
01:46:44,080 --> 01:46:45,080
All them boys is killers on the mic.

1862
01:46:45,080 --> 01:46:48,080
So we're going to do blow for blow after that's going to be T.

1863
01:46:48,080 --> 01:46:49,080
Breezy.

1864
01:46:49,080 --> 01:46:50,080
T.

1865
01:46:50,080 --> 01:46:51,080
Breezy like a bear featuring J.

1866
01:46:51,080 --> 01:47:01,080
Cole shipped on early October, two month run peak at number 38 on urban and did not receive

1867
01:47:01,080 --> 01:47:02,080
a plaque.

1868
01:47:02,080 --> 01:47:08,080
I knew that someone going to do that shit because you know, I dirt did that shit first.

1869
01:47:08,080 --> 01:47:09,080
He did the J.

1870
01:47:09,080 --> 01:47:10,080
Cole feature first.

1871
01:47:10,080 --> 01:47:13,080
So it was weird with what you said.

1872
01:47:13,080 --> 01:47:14,080
I agree with you.

1873
01:47:14,080 --> 01:47:15,680
And I think I even said that in my review of it.

1874
01:47:15,680 --> 01:47:17,080
I think T.

1875
01:47:17,080 --> 01:47:21,520
Grizzly believed that this was going to do the same thing for 21 Savage and little Dirk

1876
01:47:21,520 --> 01:47:22,520
that it would do for him.

1877
01:47:22,520 --> 01:47:23,520
And it did not.

1878
01:47:23,520 --> 01:47:24,520
Yeah, it don't know.

1879
01:47:24,520 --> 01:47:28,760
That's what happens when you try to capture capture light in the bottle more than once.

1880
01:47:28,760 --> 01:47:31,800
And the thing is, shout out to T. Grizzly because he dope as fuck, bro.

1881
01:47:31,800 --> 01:47:32,800
I love T. Grizzly.

1882
01:47:32,800 --> 01:47:33,800
He really is.

1883
01:47:33,800 --> 01:47:36,800
I love the way he pronounces words.

1884
01:47:36,800 --> 01:47:37,800
No, he's dope.

1885
01:47:37,800 --> 01:47:38,800
Do you know he put out a whole-

1886
01:47:38,800 --> 01:47:39,800
I think of them drags, he got like a bunch of them.

1887
01:47:39,800 --> 01:47:40,800
What does that shit called?

1888
01:47:40,800 --> 01:47:43,800
You know, he just put out a whole story album.

1889
01:47:43,800 --> 01:47:48,760
Like his last album before this new one came out, the whole album is story rhymes.

1890
01:47:48,760 --> 01:47:50,000
Like everything is stories.

1891
01:47:50,000 --> 01:47:52,000
Like he got this series called Robbery.

1892
01:47:52,000 --> 01:47:55,000
Yes, that's what I'm talking about.

1893
01:47:55,000 --> 01:47:56,000
Robbery number eight.

1894
01:47:56,000 --> 01:47:57,000
Yeah, bro.

1895
01:47:57,000 --> 01:47:58,000
Like yo, T. Grizzly is dope as shit, bro.

1896
01:47:58,000 --> 01:47:59,000
Like he's dope as fuck.

1897
01:47:59,000 --> 01:48:00,000
You heard Robbery number eight?

1898
01:48:00,000 --> 01:48:01,000
Oh, bro.

1899
01:48:01,000 --> 01:48:02,000
I'm so caught up in that shit, bro.

1900
01:48:02,000 --> 01:48:03,000
Like it's crazy, bro.

1901
01:48:03,000 --> 01:48:06,000
Like T. Grizzly lyrically is dope.

1902
01:48:06,000 --> 01:48:07,000
He's from Detroit.

1903
01:48:07,000 --> 01:48:08,000
He got that Detroit shit too.

1904
01:48:08,000 --> 01:48:09,000
Cause right now the game sounds like Detroit right now.

1905
01:48:09,000 --> 01:48:10,000
You know what I'm saying?

1906
01:48:10,000 --> 01:48:11,000
A lot of these cats sound like Detroit.

1907
01:48:11,000 --> 01:48:12,000
This shit meant to be though.

1908
01:48:12,000 --> 01:48:13,000
I'm with you 150.

1909
01:48:13,000 --> 01:48:14,000
But I fuck with T. Grizzly.

1910
01:48:14,000 --> 01:48:15,000
But yeah, even when I heard that song-

1911
01:48:15,000 --> 01:48:16,000
He got a bunch of them.

1912
01:48:16,000 --> 01:48:17,000
Robbery one, two, three, four.

1913
01:48:17,000 --> 01:48:18,000
All of them.

1914
01:48:18,000 --> 01:48:19,000
Like all of them were dope.

1915
01:48:19,000 --> 01:48:20,000
But even when I heard the song with you, I was like, I'm gonna go with T. Grizzly.

1916
01:48:20,000 --> 01:48:28,000
I said, this is for T. Grizzly.

1917
01:48:28,000 --> 01:48:32,320
He's like 20 minutes long.

1918
01:48:32,320 --> 01:48:38,120
He trying to do what that damn Dirt was doing and 21 Savage did.

1919
01:48:38,120 --> 01:48:39,120
Yeah.

1920
01:48:39,120 --> 01:48:40,120
You can't reduplicate that, bro.

1921
01:48:40,120 --> 01:48:43,600
Cause you don't, I don't think his style mixed with J Cole.

1922
01:48:43,600 --> 01:48:48,640
And even though 21 Savage didn't mix, but the song mixed, like you know what I'm saying?

1923
01:48:48,640 --> 01:48:51,320
Rest in peace to that song.

1924
01:48:51,320 --> 01:48:55,680
I like how D-Rug understands how much I love that segment.

1925
01:48:55,680 --> 01:48:58,160
I like the Barry, like the Barry play out record.

1926
01:48:58,160 --> 01:49:00,800
This is the best episode ever.

1927
01:49:00,800 --> 01:49:02,280
You know you say that every episode.

1928
01:49:02,280 --> 01:49:03,280
Because it is.

1929
01:49:03,280 --> 01:49:04,280
It's true.

1930
01:49:04,280 --> 01:49:05,280
He said that on every episode.

1931
01:49:05,280 --> 01:49:07,640
Damn, he made me feel good for a second.

1932
01:49:07,640 --> 01:49:09,600
But it's true because it is right now.

1933
01:49:09,600 --> 01:49:10,600
Best episode?

1934
01:49:10,600 --> 01:49:11,600
Yes.

1935
01:49:11,600 --> 01:49:12,600
Till the next one.

1936
01:49:12,600 --> 01:49:13,600
Best episode ever.

1937
01:49:13,600 --> 01:49:16,600
I know the next episode, you're gonna say that shit too.

1938
01:49:16,600 --> 01:49:17,600
It's a new lick.

1939
01:49:17,600 --> 01:49:18,600
I probably will.

1940
01:49:18,600 --> 01:49:21,880
But right now, this is the best episode ever.

1941
01:49:21,880 --> 01:49:22,880
All right.

1942
01:49:22,880 --> 01:49:25,640
So moving on to segment six, Edutainment.

1943
01:49:25,640 --> 01:49:29,720
This was a well-respected part of season one that we haven't actually done one yet in season

1944
01:49:29,720 --> 01:49:30,720
two.

1945
01:49:30,720 --> 01:49:34,120
We're really going to try our best to experiment with this and do a little extra extra for

1946
01:49:34,120 --> 01:49:39,360
y'all, y'all listeners and resubtitle this part, Edutainment, us, you and y'all.

1947
01:49:39,360 --> 01:49:44,600
And basically this is still a quick fire music business questions segment where myself, AM

1948
01:49:44,600 --> 01:49:49,280
Rob and our special guest take questions open table style that our listeners email in and

1949
01:49:49,280 --> 01:49:54,640
try to help advise y'all and direct y'all through with the legal proper meanings, instructions

1950
01:49:54,640 --> 01:49:55,640
and steps.

1951
01:49:55,640 --> 01:50:01,840
This us, you and all in part, we're adding to this is to remember that we're human too.

1952
01:50:01,840 --> 01:50:06,320
And we have our own frustrations, anger and even questions with the music industry.

1953
01:50:06,320 --> 01:50:12,160
So it opens up things for us and the guests to ask questions, maybe constructively air

1954
01:50:12,160 --> 01:50:17,120
out some of our issues, the us represents us three co-hosts and you who's going to be

1955
01:50:17,120 --> 01:50:20,640
representing the guests that we are interviewing and hanging out with each episode.

1956
01:50:20,640 --> 01:50:24,680
And then the y'all will represent everyone else that's going to listen and tune into

1957
01:50:24,680 --> 01:50:27,320
the drinks that we do with us.

1958
01:50:27,320 --> 01:50:29,200
That's all across the globe.

1959
01:50:29,200 --> 01:50:30,200
Yes.

1960
01:50:30,200 --> 01:50:34,120
And now since it's the triumphant return, it's only right.

1961
01:50:34,120 --> 01:50:38,600
We start with one of our own and it's gotta be my boy, Doc J.

1962
01:50:38,600 --> 01:50:40,600
Oh, here we go.

1963
01:50:40,600 --> 01:50:42,320
Here we go.

1964
01:50:42,320 --> 01:50:43,320
Doc.

1965
01:50:43,320 --> 01:50:44,320
Yes.

1966
01:50:44,320 --> 01:50:51,520
The doctor has been privately stressed and dealing with work dilemmas is November 26,

1967
01:50:51,520 --> 01:50:54,920
basically against one of the biggest artists on the planet.

1968
01:50:54,920 --> 01:51:03,200
So our very first us part of edutainment and I'll introduce it is Doc's newest problem

1969
01:51:03,200 --> 01:51:04,200
with Drake.

1970
01:51:04,200 --> 01:51:05,200
All right.

1971
01:51:05,200 --> 01:51:08,760
First of all, and I'm going to take this from my boy, Nigel from Chicago.

1972
01:51:08,760 --> 01:51:11,000
I no longer say the term Drake.

1973
01:51:11,000 --> 01:51:12,000
I just say the Canadian.

1974
01:51:12,000 --> 01:51:14,280
You don't say Drake no more?

1975
01:51:14,280 --> 01:51:15,280
No, fuck that.

1976
01:51:15,280 --> 01:51:16,280
I just say Canadian.

1977
01:51:16,280 --> 01:51:17,280
Go ahead.

1978
01:51:17,280 --> 01:51:18,280
Hey, go ahead.

1979
01:51:18,280 --> 01:51:21,360
Give your ass because I'm a clip this.

1980
01:51:21,360 --> 01:51:22,360
This is going to go viral.

1981
01:51:22,360 --> 01:51:28,560
But you give us your take on that being a person that has to deal with what's going

1982
01:51:28,560 --> 01:51:29,560
on right now.

1983
01:51:29,560 --> 01:51:30,560
All right.

1984
01:51:30,560 --> 01:51:33,240
So I'm just going to say the Canadian because it keeps his name out my mouth.

1985
01:51:33,240 --> 01:51:34,240
We don't have any open.

1986
01:51:34,240 --> 01:51:35,240
He's called the Canadian.

1987
01:51:35,240 --> 01:51:36,240
The Canadian.

1988
01:51:36,240 --> 01:51:38,360
The fucking Canadians got some problems.

1989
01:51:38,360 --> 01:51:39,360
Right.

1990
01:51:39,360 --> 01:51:43,840
So November 26, the day after Thanksgiving weekend, he put out two petitions.

1991
01:51:43,840 --> 01:51:45,880
So I want to clear up the Internet.

1992
01:51:45,880 --> 01:51:47,320
Everyone's saying that he's suing Kendrick.

1993
01:51:47,320 --> 01:51:48,760
He's suing Universal Music Group.

1994
01:51:48,760 --> 01:51:49,760
He's suing Spotify.

1995
01:51:49,760 --> 01:51:50,880
He hasn't sued anyone yet.

1996
01:51:50,880 --> 01:51:53,000
This is a petition for suit.

1997
01:51:53,000 --> 01:51:55,760
All that means is this is what I inquire to do.

1998
01:51:55,760 --> 01:52:01,140
I acknowledge that I have a problem with these agencies or companies and I would like to

1999
01:52:01,140 --> 01:52:03,000
inquire some documents back.

2000
01:52:03,000 --> 01:52:07,120
And based on what you give me and the dates and the names on these documents, I may sue

2001
01:52:07,120 --> 01:52:08,280
your asses for it.

2002
01:52:08,280 --> 01:52:10,240
That's what Drake did with those petitions for suits.

2003
01:52:10,240 --> 01:52:12,360
Oh, I love the way you put that.

2004
01:52:12,360 --> 01:52:13,360
I try to bring it.

2005
01:52:13,360 --> 01:52:15,040
Hey, that's so bitch made.

2006
01:52:15,040 --> 01:52:16,040
He did that.

2007
01:52:16,040 --> 01:52:20,920
I try to break it down where both my my industry cats and the people of the courthouse understand

2008
01:52:20,920 --> 01:52:21,920
it.

2009
01:52:21,920 --> 01:52:24,520
But then like where I'm from and the people in New York and people in the hood understand

2010
01:52:24,520 --> 01:52:25,520
what I'm saying to.

2011
01:52:25,520 --> 01:52:27,160
So the Canadian.

2012
01:52:27,160 --> 01:52:28,160
Right.

2013
01:52:28,160 --> 01:52:33,760
So the first petition he tried to disguise as I'm doing this for the independent artists.

2014
01:52:33,760 --> 01:52:36,500
I'm doing it for everyone that's getting screwed by Spotify.

2015
01:52:36,500 --> 01:52:39,320
By the way, all streaming platforms actually do this.

2016
01:52:39,320 --> 01:52:42,920
Spotify is the only one that tries to stay transparent about it.

2017
01:52:42,920 --> 01:52:46,440
So them trying to stay transparent about it, saying they're screwing you.

2018
01:52:46,440 --> 01:52:47,680
Title does the same shit.

2019
01:52:47,680 --> 01:52:48,680
Apple does the same shit.

2020
01:52:48,680 --> 01:52:50,840
And Amazon does the same shit.

2021
01:52:50,840 --> 01:52:55,700
But regardless, the first petition he tried to disguise as I'm doing this for the indie

2022
01:52:55,700 --> 01:53:02,680
artists that when a big record gets fraudulently pushed to number one, they get to steal all

2023
01:53:02,680 --> 01:53:08,160
that that buzz and the biggest payout from streaming platforms goes to whoever is the

2024
01:53:08,160 --> 01:53:09,500
biggest market share.

2025
01:53:09,500 --> 01:53:12,560
For the last 14 years, Drake has been the biggest market share.

2026
01:53:12,560 --> 01:53:17,640
So by the way, Drake has been benefiting from whatever bullshit scheming has been going on

2027
01:53:17,640 --> 01:53:19,480
for the last 14 years.

2028
01:53:19,480 --> 01:53:23,760
But now that he's not number one and he lost the beef and not like us has taken over the

2029
01:53:23,760 --> 01:53:24,760
entire planet.

2030
01:53:24,760 --> 01:53:29,240
I mean, it's number one in like 13 different countries.

2031
01:53:29,240 --> 01:53:34,800
He's mad and he's saying that Spotify and different streaming platforms and then he

2032
01:53:34,800 --> 01:53:39,360
named media base and I Heart Radio said we're even fraudulently messing up the numbers at

2033
01:53:39,360 --> 01:53:40,360
radio.

2034
01:53:40,360 --> 01:53:46,000
We're making this record that's just an average rap song into a global cultural icon.

2035
01:53:46,000 --> 01:53:50,720
And we did it by funk in the numbers, messing up the numbers, boosting the numbers, playing

2036
01:53:50,720 --> 01:53:53,500
it more than it should and lying about numbers.

2037
01:53:53,500 --> 01:53:58,720
So since Monday, I've had to turn in documentation, me and my staff, three people with me, had

2038
01:53:58,720 --> 01:54:02,840
to turn to staff to prove the amount of spins we've been counting for Kendrick Lamar's Not

2039
01:54:02,840 --> 01:54:04,000
Like Us at radio.

2040
01:54:04,000 --> 01:54:08,520
I've had to go back with my charts and luckily these guys know I keep every chart I make

2041
01:54:08,520 --> 01:54:10,440
on Excel.

2042
01:54:10,440 --> 01:54:12,760
They wanted me to go back all the way to January.

2043
01:54:12,760 --> 01:54:14,280
And I'm like, not like us even.

2044
01:54:14,280 --> 01:54:16,280
It came out in July, August.

2045
01:54:16,280 --> 01:54:18,840
Like why do I got to go back to fucking January?

2046
01:54:18,840 --> 01:54:21,680
So let me ask you a real question.

2047
01:54:21,680 --> 01:54:24,040
Was that an organic song or not?

2048
01:54:24,040 --> 01:54:25,760
I think it was definitely.

2049
01:54:25,760 --> 01:54:27,640
Here's the funny part, right?

2050
01:54:27,640 --> 01:54:32,320
Here I'm my degrees in copyright trademark law of all those diss tracks.

2051
01:54:32,320 --> 01:54:36,280
Drake's pushups was copyrighted.

2052
01:54:36,280 --> 01:54:41,880
The one before that like that, which is Future, Kendrick Lamar and Metro, that was copyrighted.

2053
01:54:41,880 --> 01:54:46,760
Every single diss track to the end of it, except for Not Like Us was not copyrighted.

2054
01:54:46,760 --> 01:54:50,640
So none, none of the motherfuckers got paid for those records.

2055
01:54:50,640 --> 01:54:51,640
But they was beefing.

2056
01:54:51,640 --> 01:54:52,640
This is a shit.

2057
01:54:52,640 --> 01:54:53,640
They was beefing.

2058
01:54:53,640 --> 01:54:59,960
They was because this is why I say this is the greatest beef of all time, because we

2059
01:54:59,960 --> 01:55:02,320
actually watch this beef in real time.

2060
01:55:02,320 --> 01:55:03,320
You know what I'm saying?

2061
01:55:03,320 --> 01:55:08,680
So they was dropping shit like you can ask my lady, my lady, I tell you, I was so in

2062
01:55:08,680 --> 01:55:10,400
tune to that beef.

2063
01:55:10,400 --> 01:55:11,400
I'm pretty crazy.

2064
01:55:11,400 --> 01:55:12,400
It took me.

2065
01:55:12,400 --> 01:55:13,400
And I think you're right.

2066
01:55:13,400 --> 01:55:16,200
I'm pretty sure every like two or three days after they recorded, they released it.

2067
01:55:16,200 --> 01:55:17,560
They didn't give a fuck about copyright.

2068
01:55:17,560 --> 01:55:18,560
It was beef.

2069
01:55:18,560 --> 01:55:19,560
Like they would drop this shit.

2070
01:55:19,560 --> 01:55:20,560
They would copy shit.

2071
01:55:20,560 --> 01:55:24,720
But Kendrick actually had Not Like Us copyrighted before all those records, which is kind of

2072
01:55:24,720 --> 01:55:26,920
cool to me, crazy to me.

2073
01:55:26,920 --> 01:55:27,920
Right.

2074
01:55:27,920 --> 01:55:29,720
So that one actually is monetized.

2075
01:55:29,720 --> 01:55:34,520
And that one became, like you said, I think that became an organic West Coast cultural

2076
01:55:34,520 --> 01:55:36,360
icon type of record.

2077
01:55:36,360 --> 01:55:38,520
There was motherfuckers tick tock into it.

2078
01:55:38,520 --> 01:55:40,360
Girls tick tock to it.

2079
01:55:40,360 --> 01:55:41,720
Thugs crip walk into it.

2080
01:55:41,720 --> 01:55:44,120
Like that became a cultural icon.

2081
01:55:44,120 --> 01:55:47,440
I'm going to tell you when I heard that song, bro.

2082
01:55:47,440 --> 01:55:50,400
We went to the beach that day.

2083
01:55:50,400 --> 01:55:54,840
Me, me, my girl, my kids, we all went to the beach that day.

2084
01:55:54,840 --> 01:55:55,840
Right.

2085
01:55:55,840 --> 01:56:01,080
And this is at the this is the pinnacle when they're beefing.

2086
01:56:01,080 --> 01:56:02,240
They drop and shit.

2087
01:56:02,240 --> 01:56:06,640
Drake just dropped the what it was family manners with Drake drop.

2088
01:56:06,640 --> 01:56:08,960
Which I liked, which I like because it got dark.

2089
01:56:08,960 --> 01:56:10,360
Oh, that shit was crazy.

2090
01:56:10,360 --> 01:56:14,120
Like at that point, because if you could go back to my post, as I was saying, OK, Drake

2091
01:56:14,120 --> 01:56:15,120
winning.

2092
01:56:15,120 --> 01:56:16,120
Drake got this.

2093
01:56:16,120 --> 01:56:17,120
Drake got it.

2094
01:56:17,120 --> 01:56:18,120
You know what I'm saying?

2095
01:56:18,120 --> 01:56:21,200
And then all of a sudden, fucking not like us came out.

2096
01:56:21,200 --> 01:56:22,200
My boy calls me.

2097
01:56:22,200 --> 01:56:24,920
He was like, yo, because he had dropped.

2098
01:56:24,920 --> 01:56:27,720
He just dropped something about Drake.

2099
01:56:27,720 --> 01:56:31,160
He was dropping something about talking to his son or some shit.

2100
01:56:31,160 --> 01:56:33,040
So my boy called me.

2101
01:56:33,040 --> 01:56:34,800
He was like, yo, you heard that new Kendrick?

2102
01:56:34,800 --> 01:56:36,520
And I'm like, oh, yeah, that's cool.

2103
01:56:36,520 --> 01:56:40,720
Like, you know, he's like, no, you heard that new Kendrick is a new one that came out.

2104
01:56:40,720 --> 01:56:42,720
I'm like, what do you mean a new one came out?

2105
01:56:42,720 --> 01:56:46,920
He's like, I'm a sentence to you and call me back.

2106
01:56:46,920 --> 01:56:49,960
This nigga sucked me to fucking they not like us.

2107
01:56:49,960 --> 01:56:50,960
I pulled over.

2108
01:56:50,960 --> 01:56:51,960
I pulled over.

2109
01:56:51,960 --> 01:56:55,560
Me and my family, we ordered pizza.

2110
01:56:55,560 --> 01:56:57,920
We in Daytona at a pizza shop.

2111
01:56:57,920 --> 01:56:59,160
I'm in the fucking parking lot.

2112
01:56:59,160 --> 01:57:03,560
I didn't want to get out the car, but I'm listening to this fucking song and I say,

2113
01:57:03,560 --> 01:57:04,560
it's over.

2114
01:57:04,560 --> 01:57:05,560
It's over.

2115
01:57:05,560 --> 01:57:06,560
It's over, dog.

2116
01:57:06,560 --> 01:57:07,560
This is it.

2117
01:57:07,560 --> 01:57:08,560
Like this is it.

2118
01:57:08,560 --> 01:57:09,560
This is that one.

2119
01:57:09,560 --> 01:57:10,720
He did a Drake on Drake.

2120
01:57:10,720 --> 01:57:13,720
I said that day, I said he did a Drake on Drake.

2121
01:57:13,720 --> 01:57:14,720
It's over, bro.

2122
01:57:14,720 --> 01:57:15,720
The fight is over.

2123
01:57:15,720 --> 01:57:16,720
He knocked him out.

2124
01:57:16,720 --> 01:57:17,720
I mean, then you could do.

2125
01:57:17,720 --> 01:57:22,400
So with you saying that Drake is trying to suggest in this petition that that record

2126
01:57:22,400 --> 01:57:29,600
was just a mid record, an average record and all us agencies tweak the numbers, use bots,

2127
01:57:29,600 --> 01:57:33,320
scammed it so that the different platforms streamed it more than it should have.

2128
01:57:33,320 --> 01:57:34,320
I agree with Drake.

2129
01:57:34,320 --> 01:57:37,320
Anywho, I'm going to ignore Rob.

2130
01:57:37,320 --> 01:57:39,320
He's high right now.

2131
01:57:39,320 --> 01:57:40,520
He's high right now.

2132
01:57:40,520 --> 01:57:45,240
But Rob, they named your boy, they named Media Base and iHeartMedia in on the scheme.

2133
01:57:45,240 --> 01:57:47,680
You think I'm in on the scheme on the Canadian?

2134
01:57:47,680 --> 01:57:51,520
Listen, man, we all love Drake before Kendrick.

2135
01:57:51,520 --> 01:57:53,200
We did not love Drake before.

2136
01:57:53,200 --> 01:57:54,200
I did not.

2137
01:57:54,200 --> 01:57:55,200
I love Drake.

2138
01:57:55,200 --> 01:57:56,200
I love Drake.

2139
01:57:56,200 --> 01:57:57,200
I had Drake winning, bro.

2140
01:57:57,200 --> 01:57:58,200
Like I had Drake winning.

2141
01:57:58,200 --> 01:57:59,200
But he's just like, all my fuck up, bro.

2142
01:57:59,200 --> 01:58:05,200
Like I love like I love Tupac.

2143
01:58:05,200 --> 01:58:09,600
So all my biggie lovers kiss my ass because I like Tupac.

2144
01:58:09,600 --> 01:58:13,040
So let me let me let me go back to that point you just made because you and I are kind of

2145
01:58:13,040 --> 01:58:14,040
the same on that one.

2146
01:58:14,040 --> 01:58:17,000
So there's this petition where faking the numbers, we had to turn the shit in.

2147
01:58:17,000 --> 01:58:23,000
So my last week from I had Friday off, so Monday to Thursday, we had to turn in Excel

2148
01:58:23,000 --> 01:58:27,520
spreadsheets for the radio charts for Not Like Us going all the way back.

2149
01:58:27,520 --> 01:58:30,560
It didn't get onto the radio to August, but they wanted me to go all the way back to January

2150
01:58:30,560 --> 01:58:33,480
to make sure I wasn't funking the numbers at radio.

2151
01:58:33,480 --> 01:58:36,820
I think his case he's trying to make is more streaming than us.

2152
01:58:36,820 --> 01:58:39,000
But the fact that he named us was just a bitch move.

2153
01:58:39,000 --> 01:58:44,880
Now, if that was the only move he made, he's disguising it as looking out for the indie

2154
01:58:44,880 --> 01:58:47,020
artist, trying to clear up the market share.

2155
01:58:47,020 --> 01:58:48,520
Drake is not the market share anymore.

2156
01:58:48,520 --> 01:58:50,440
He's not the number one artist.

2157
01:58:50,440 --> 01:58:52,000
It kind of moved over to someone else.

2158
01:58:52,000 --> 01:58:56,160
Now I think he's saying if someone if I can't be number one, fuck everyone, I'm gonna take

2159
01:58:56,160 --> 01:59:02,620
everyone down because I'm pretty sure Drake knows for 14 years the type of schemes they

2160
01:59:02,620 --> 01:59:03,640
use to push him.

2161
01:59:03,640 --> 01:59:08,760
So I'm pretty sure he's going to just sing like a fucking canary and tell on what Universal

2162
01:59:08,760 --> 01:59:10,320
did for Kendrick.

2163
01:59:10,320 --> 01:59:14,720
That's mo she if Drake if Drake released an album right now, it'll be a number one album

2164
01:59:14,720 --> 01:59:15,720
in the world.

2165
01:59:15,720 --> 01:59:16,720
Oh, we're not holding on.

2166
01:59:16,720 --> 01:59:17,720
Hold on.

2167
01:59:17,720 --> 01:59:18,720
Hold on.

2168
01:59:18,720 --> 01:59:19,720
We're not denying it.

2169
01:59:19,720 --> 01:59:23,000
But the last of the next five Drake singles after Not Like Us, they all flopped.

2170
01:59:23,000 --> 01:59:25,640
The highest one that climbed was 37.

2171
01:59:25,640 --> 01:59:28,040
So that timing, bad timing timing.

2172
01:59:28,040 --> 01:59:29,040
Exactly.

2173
01:59:29,040 --> 01:59:33,920
OK, so point you should fuck up right now because you don't got knocked the fuck out.

2174
01:59:33,920 --> 01:59:34,920
Yeah.

2175
01:59:34,920 --> 01:59:35,920
So OK, so there's that one.

2176
01:59:35,920 --> 01:59:36,920
Right.

2177
01:59:36,920 --> 01:59:40,800
If I had only petition to sue, I would have been I'm still not OK with it, but I would

2178
01:59:40,800 --> 01:59:42,160
have been OK with it.

2179
01:59:42,160 --> 01:59:44,600
Disguising it as I'm looking out for the little guys.

2180
01:59:44,600 --> 01:59:45,600
I look at it like this.

2181
01:59:45,600 --> 01:59:48,880
If there was no if there was no Drake, there'd be no Kendrick right now.

2182
01:59:48,880 --> 01:59:49,880
Hold on.

2183
01:59:49,880 --> 01:59:50,880
I don't know about that one.

2184
01:59:50,880 --> 01:59:51,880
But anyway, I don't know about that one.

2185
01:59:51,880 --> 01:59:53,680
I disagree with that one, buddy.

2186
01:59:53,680 --> 01:59:55,680
Like that song is about Drake.

2187
01:59:55,680 --> 01:59:58,800
If it wasn't about Drake, what is he going to sing about?

2188
01:59:58,800 --> 02:00:00,880
Kendrick has plaques, multi platinum plaques.

2189
02:00:00,880 --> 02:00:04,120
Kendrick was always the guy behind him.

2190
02:00:04,120 --> 02:00:05,120
Swimming pools.

2191
02:00:05,120 --> 02:00:06,120
Poetic Justice has Drake.

2192
02:00:06,120 --> 02:00:08,200
I'm a big I like Kendrick Lamar.

2193
02:00:08,200 --> 02:00:11,320
Don't think it don't kill my vibe is double platinum.

2194
02:00:11,320 --> 02:00:15,400
I'm saying right now the biggest song in the world is not like us.

2195
02:00:15,400 --> 02:00:16,400
Right.

2196
02:00:16,400 --> 02:00:17,400
Sure.

2197
02:00:17,400 --> 02:00:21,560
OK, so if it wasn't for Drake, that song would not be number one.

2198
02:00:21,560 --> 02:00:22,560
Just one song.

2199
02:00:22,560 --> 02:00:23,560
Only that song.

2200
02:00:23,560 --> 02:00:25,080
Not not the entire discography.

2201
02:00:25,080 --> 02:00:26,080
OK, great.

2202
02:00:26,080 --> 02:00:27,080
That's right.

2203
02:00:27,080 --> 02:00:28,960
The discography is cemented.

2204
02:00:28,960 --> 02:00:33,000
So so I can clear up this and we can move on to the next question because I work wrong.

2205
02:00:33,000 --> 02:00:34,600
I'm a I'm a Kendrick Lamar.

2206
02:00:34,600 --> 02:00:35,760
I like Kendrick Lamar.

2207
02:00:35,760 --> 02:00:36,760
I like baby came.

2208
02:00:36,760 --> 02:00:38,040
I like everything they got.

2209
02:00:38,040 --> 02:00:39,040
I actually don't.

2210
02:00:39,040 --> 02:00:40,200
I actually don't like baby came.

2211
02:00:40,200 --> 02:00:41,200
I think I do.

2212
02:00:41,200 --> 02:00:42,200
Yeah, baby came his ass.

2213
02:00:42,200 --> 02:00:43,200
All right.

2214
02:00:43,200 --> 02:00:44,200
So the story.

2215
02:00:44,200 --> 02:00:45,200
So Rob, I want you to look.

2216
02:00:45,200 --> 02:00:48,920
I want you to look at me as I look at D-Rug too.

2217
02:00:48,920 --> 02:00:55,680
So part two of the story was six hours after putting that petition in for the first suit

2218
02:00:55,680 --> 02:01:00,600
of tweaking the numbers, there's a whole industry wide scheme where we're faking the numbers

2219
02:01:00,600 --> 02:01:02,280
and making Kendrick look bigger than Drake.

2220
02:01:02,280 --> 02:01:04,680
He's mad that he looks bigger than Drake.

2221
02:01:04,680 --> 02:01:10,440
Six hours later, he put a defamation of character lawsuit again petition against Universal Music

2222
02:01:10,440 --> 02:01:16,240
and Kendrick Lamar for basically saying that the song was fraudulent.

2223
02:01:16,240 --> 02:01:17,920
He was saying lies.

2224
02:01:17,920 --> 02:01:22,520
It was so mean that now and the reason why he's putting the petition in, it's causing

2225
02:01:22,520 --> 02:01:24,520
financial fucking hardship.

2226
02:01:24,520 --> 02:01:25,520
You lost.

2227
02:01:25,520 --> 02:01:28,360
That's what happens when you lose a battle.

2228
02:01:28,360 --> 02:01:29,480
I'm looking at you both.

2229
02:01:29,480 --> 02:01:31,480
We're all the same age pretty much.

2230
02:01:31,480 --> 02:01:35,800
Tupac and Biggie were beefing when they were beefing and when Big Tupac said, I fucked

2231
02:01:35,800 --> 02:01:37,360
your bitch, you fat motherfucker.

2232
02:01:37,360 --> 02:01:43,680
If Biggie put in a lawsuit again, he ain't say a motherfucking thing.

2233
02:01:43,680 --> 02:01:46,200
No, he just put another diss track out.

2234
02:01:46,200 --> 02:01:48,480
Like, yeah, we like who?

2235
02:01:48,480 --> 02:01:49,480
Beware.

2236
02:01:49,480 --> 02:01:51,360
Biggie went back and forth with you with Tupac.

2237
02:01:51,360 --> 02:01:52,360
He did not.

2238
02:01:52,360 --> 02:01:53,360
He did not.

2239
02:01:53,360 --> 02:01:54,360
He's done shots.

2240
02:01:54,360 --> 02:01:57,360
He's done shots and where you you.

2241
02:01:57,360 --> 02:02:02,440
I fucked your bitch, you fat motherfucker, you can't come back from that.

2242
02:02:02,440 --> 02:02:03,440
Shit the pop.

2243
02:02:03,440 --> 02:02:04,440
Can't come back.

2244
02:02:04,440 --> 02:02:07,200
But that's the same shit with 50 and Ja Rule.

2245
02:02:07,200 --> 02:02:08,200
Thank you.

2246
02:02:08,200 --> 02:02:09,200
Thank you.

2247
02:02:09,200 --> 02:02:10,200
50, you know Ja Rule.

2248
02:02:10,200 --> 02:02:11,200
And you didn't see Ja Rule.

2249
02:02:11,200 --> 02:02:12,200
You fucking.

2250
02:02:12,200 --> 02:02:13,200
No, don't fuck Ja Rule.

2251
02:02:13,200 --> 02:02:14,200
Ja Rule is first.

2252
02:02:14,200 --> 02:02:15,200
Ja Rule is first.

2253
02:02:15,200 --> 02:02:16,200
Alright, let me tell you all a story.

2254
02:02:16,200 --> 02:02:17,200
Let me tell you a little story.

2255
02:02:17,200 --> 02:02:19,720
Can I tell you a story why I say that?

2256
02:02:19,720 --> 02:02:20,720
Sure.

2257
02:02:20,720 --> 02:02:22,200
It's not because of his music.

2258
02:02:22,200 --> 02:02:25,680
Listen, I don't hate anybody for what they do.

2259
02:02:25,680 --> 02:02:28,720
I hate what they do because what they do to me.

2260
02:02:28,720 --> 02:02:29,720
Okay.

2261
02:02:29,720 --> 02:02:33,280
Ja Rule tried to get me kicked out of a club because I smoked a blunt.

2262
02:02:33,280 --> 02:02:35,200
Oh, well, that's a personal thing.

2263
02:02:35,200 --> 02:02:36,200
Fuck that shit.

2264
02:02:36,200 --> 02:02:37,200
Yeah.

2265
02:02:37,200 --> 02:02:38,200
Fuck Ja Rule.

2266
02:02:38,200 --> 02:02:39,200
Okay, okay.

2267
02:02:39,200 --> 02:02:42,800
But you see what I'm saying though, like from the time that all of us are from, all four

2268
02:02:42,800 --> 02:02:47,280
of us are from, if Tupac said I fucked your bitch, you fat motherfucker, and Biggie put

2269
02:02:47,280 --> 02:02:49,680
a lawsuit against him for defamation of character.

2270
02:02:49,680 --> 02:02:50,980
Biggie's a bitch.

2271
02:02:50,980 --> 02:02:52,540
We would have crucified Biggie.

2272
02:02:52,540 --> 02:02:55,160
So the fact that Drake's doing that, why are we crucified?

2273
02:02:55,160 --> 02:02:56,160
Not even that.

2274
02:02:56,160 --> 02:02:58,640
Drake said some fuck shit about him.

2275
02:02:58,640 --> 02:03:00,000
His wife is cheating on him.

2276
02:03:00,000 --> 02:03:02,960
He's a wife- He said his wife is cheating on him, his homeboy, that's his homeboy's

2277
02:03:02,960 --> 02:03:03,960
child.

2278
02:03:03,960 --> 02:03:06,000
He beats his woman up.

2279
02:03:06,000 --> 02:03:08,200
He said some foul shit about Kidrick.

2280
02:03:08,200 --> 02:03:09,760
That could have fucked his brand up.

2281
02:03:09,760 --> 02:03:13,560
I've never bought a Drake CD in my life.

2282
02:03:13,560 --> 02:03:15,360
But you just said you're the biggest Drake fan ever.

2283
02:03:15,360 --> 02:03:18,680
No, I didn't say that.

2284
02:03:18,680 --> 02:03:21,320
You'd be lying to yourself to say that Not Like Us didn't hurt him.

2285
02:03:21,320 --> 02:03:22,320
It did.

2286
02:03:22,320 --> 02:03:23,320
It really did.

2287
02:03:23,320 --> 02:03:25,720
I did it the day it would, but it fucking did.

2288
02:03:25,720 --> 02:03:27,080
So I vented enough.

2289
02:03:27,080 --> 02:03:28,080
I did my homework.

2290
02:03:28,080 --> 02:03:29,080
I turned it in.

2291
02:03:29,080 --> 02:03:30,440
My week of stress is over.

2292
02:03:30,440 --> 02:03:33,160
But the world's going to say I'm a hater no matter what I say.

2293
02:03:33,160 --> 02:03:35,520
So enough of my issues, right?

2294
02:03:35,520 --> 02:03:40,240
For the you part of edutainment of this portion of our show, D-Rogg, I'm going to turn the

2295
02:03:40,240 --> 02:03:41,240
mic to you, right?

2296
02:03:41,240 --> 02:03:44,720
The three of us want to really get to know you better and learn your stresses.

2297
02:03:44,720 --> 02:03:49,740
You and I were talking on the phone yesterday, actually, and I think you told me one Bernie

2298
02:03:49,740 --> 02:03:53,440
music question that you had that you were dying to get answered, and you even told me

2299
02:03:53,440 --> 02:03:54,880
that you were kind of doing it wrong.

2300
02:03:54,880 --> 02:03:56,360
So can you ask that question to us?

2301
02:03:56,360 --> 02:03:57,360
And we'll talk about it.

2302
02:03:57,360 --> 02:03:58,360
Round robin.

2303
02:03:58,360 --> 02:04:03,520
I definitely want to speak to you about poor man's copywriting.

2304
02:04:03,520 --> 02:04:09,000
This is something, this is a practice that I always did starting off, you know, back

2305
02:04:09,000 --> 02:04:12,760
in the days, you know what I'm saying, because, you know, we like the knowledge.

2306
02:04:12,760 --> 02:04:18,680
But I always was told by big, big industry people, everybody, they always told us, hey,

2307
02:04:18,680 --> 02:04:20,520
send the copy to yourself and never open it.

2308
02:04:20,520 --> 02:04:21,520
You'd be all right.

2309
02:04:21,520 --> 02:04:22,520
I'm a little serious with that.

2310
02:04:22,520 --> 02:04:25,960
I'm going to look at these two gentlemen, since they've known me so long, they heard

2311
02:04:25,960 --> 02:04:29,400
my broken record of bullshit, right?

2312
02:04:29,400 --> 02:04:36,800
Is a.m. and Rob is a poor man's copyright legal in the year 2024 2025 fucking not, bro.

2313
02:04:36,800 --> 02:04:40,240
Copyright, copyright, copyright, copyright.

2314
02:04:40,240 --> 02:04:45,200
Thank you, Doc, for coming into my life to explain how important the copyright is.

2315
02:04:45,200 --> 02:04:46,200
What about you, Am?

2316
02:04:46,200 --> 02:04:47,200
Oh, you already know.

2317
02:04:47,200 --> 02:04:48,200
You already know.

2318
02:04:48,200 --> 02:04:51,400
I'm watching my music shut down already for not copyright and shit.

2319
02:04:51,400 --> 02:04:53,400
So copyright, copyright, copyright.

2320
02:04:53,400 --> 02:04:54,400
I'm in the same boat.

2321
02:04:54,400 --> 02:04:55,400
I'm in the same boat.

2322
02:04:55,400 --> 02:04:56,400
I'm here to learn, man.

2323
02:04:56,400 --> 02:04:57,400
You know what I'm saying?

2324
02:04:57,400 --> 02:04:59,060
So I'm 44, but I'm here to learn.

2325
02:04:59,060 --> 02:05:00,060
Let me school you something.

2326
02:05:00,060 --> 02:05:02,960
They've made it super easy on the Library of Congress website.

2327
02:05:02,960 --> 02:05:03,960
L.O.C. dot gov.

2328
02:05:03,960 --> 02:05:06,640
You should probably go bookmark that when you're off the show.

2329
02:05:06,640 --> 02:05:08,920
Www dot L.O.C. dot gov.

2330
02:05:08,920 --> 02:05:11,760
Library of Congress dot government.

2331
02:05:11,760 --> 02:05:14,520
When you're there in the middle bar, it's going to have all their different departments,

2332
02:05:14,520 --> 02:05:16,140
archive, library, blah, blah, blah.

2333
02:05:16,140 --> 02:05:18,100
Go to the U.S. Copyright Office.

2334
02:05:18,100 --> 02:05:25,360
They break every single copyright in their archive from 1978 to present and 1977 back

2335
02:05:25,360 --> 02:05:26,760
to the beginning of time.

2336
02:05:26,760 --> 02:05:31,240
The Library of Congress started sometime in the late 1800s, by the way.

2337
02:05:31,240 --> 02:05:34,320
So they've got all this shit up to 77 and then 78 and on.

2338
02:05:34,320 --> 02:05:38,820
The reason why that dates very, very important for poor man's copyrights, there was a section

2339
02:05:38,820 --> 02:05:42,360
called 413 that came in 1977.

2340
02:05:42,360 --> 02:05:47,360
In that section, they basically proven that let's say you and I are funk artists.

2341
02:05:47,360 --> 02:05:49,760
You know, we're Earth, Wind and Fire in the 70s.

2342
02:05:49,760 --> 02:05:55,440
We're the fucking anything, the Manhatens, anything that makes funk music, right?

2343
02:05:55,440 --> 02:05:59,400
A.M. comes through our booth section and hears our record.

2344
02:05:59,400 --> 02:06:03,640
He records that shit on a tape recorder, eight track recorder, wherever you want to do.

2345
02:06:03,640 --> 02:06:08,720
If he mails that shit to himself before we do, he owns our record and he actually sues

2346
02:06:08,720 --> 02:06:10,520
us.

2347
02:06:10,520 --> 02:06:15,280
And that shit was happening so many dozens and dozens and dozens of times, no judge can

2348
02:06:15,280 --> 02:06:17,080
uphold a poor man's copyright anymore.

2349
02:06:17,080 --> 02:06:23,360
So the last time that one in court and was allowed was up to December 1977.

2350
02:06:23,360 --> 02:06:28,440
That's why they break the U.S. Copyright Office in 78 and on, because that's all non-poor

2351
02:06:28,440 --> 02:06:29,920
man copyrights.

2352
02:06:29,920 --> 02:06:34,120
Everything older than 77 can allow poor man's copyrights.

2353
02:06:34,120 --> 02:06:38,520
So that means if you haven't filed a record or register with Library of Congress, there's

2354
02:06:38,520 --> 02:06:44,720
actually no document or government proof that says Boston, comma, Darius or D-Rug owns this

2355
02:06:44,720 --> 02:06:45,720
song.

2356
02:06:45,720 --> 02:06:50,120
So let's say me and Rob heard this record in Spotify, this beat that pussy up.

2357
02:06:50,120 --> 02:06:55,440
We could take that record, scrape it, pull it off Spotify, file that copyright, and now

2358
02:06:55,440 --> 02:06:58,960
we sue you for stealing our record.

2359
02:06:58,960 --> 02:06:59,960
So that's the easiest way.

2360
02:06:59,960 --> 02:07:00,960
It's crazy, right?

2361
02:07:00,960 --> 02:07:01,960
It's crazy.

2362
02:07:01,960 --> 02:07:04,040
It's the easiest way I can explain it.

2363
02:07:04,040 --> 02:07:06,560
The one thing that helps you a little bit is it's been out.

2364
02:07:06,560 --> 02:07:09,560
You actually have a date that you put on streaming platforms.

2365
02:07:09,560 --> 02:07:13,440
They try to prove that they put it out before you.

2366
02:07:13,440 --> 02:07:15,920
And the streaming platform's probably going to defend you a little bit.

2367
02:07:15,920 --> 02:07:19,280
Like, well, he put it up in... I mean, when did you beat that pussy up?

2368
02:07:19,280 --> 02:07:20,840
That shit old as fuck.

2369
02:07:20,840 --> 02:07:23,360
He did it, but it was like, oh, wait.

2370
02:07:23,360 --> 02:07:27,520
So they're going to try to say, oh, we got computer files that say we made it in 07 and

2371
02:07:27,520 --> 02:07:28,720
D-Rug stole it from us.

2372
02:07:28,720 --> 02:07:29,720
That's what they're going to try to do.

2373
02:07:29,720 --> 02:07:32,560
I got the Pro Tools session.

2374
02:07:32,560 --> 02:07:34,720
We copy... We pole man that bitch.

2375
02:07:34,720 --> 02:07:36,700
I pole man everything.

2376
02:07:36,700 --> 02:07:40,360
So if that person didn't get a copyright and you don't have a copyright, that's when a

2377
02:07:40,360 --> 02:07:43,560
judge will pull into your Pro Tools sessions.

2378
02:07:43,560 --> 02:07:46,160
If someone has a copyright, 100% it wins.

2379
02:07:46,160 --> 02:07:48,520
No questions asked.

2380
02:07:48,520 --> 02:07:49,920
So that's... It's crazy.

2381
02:07:49,920 --> 02:07:54,180
So copyright, there's five rights it gives you, but the fifth one's the one that matters

2382
02:07:54,180 --> 02:07:55,280
most to me.

2383
02:07:55,280 --> 02:07:56,440
It's the right to litigate.

2384
02:07:56,440 --> 02:08:02,000
So if you don't have a registered copyright, me and Rob in AM can sample your record and

2385
02:08:02,000 --> 02:08:04,400
you'll be like, well, shit, you're making money off me.

2386
02:08:04,400 --> 02:08:06,140
Without a copyright, you can't sue us either.

2387
02:08:06,140 --> 02:08:09,080
So that's the two things that really hurt you without copyright.

2388
02:08:09,080 --> 02:08:12,000
D-Rug, you fucking with the goat right here, dog.

2389
02:08:12,000 --> 02:08:13,000
I see.

2390
02:08:13,000 --> 02:08:14,000
I'm not the goat.

2391
02:08:14,000 --> 02:08:15,000
I duck, man.

2392
02:08:15,000 --> 02:08:16,000
Duck, duck, duck, duck.

2393
02:08:16,000 --> 02:08:18,040
Dropping at science right now.

2394
02:08:18,040 --> 02:08:21,080
I know in 30 minutes you trust me with your life.

2395
02:08:21,080 --> 02:08:23,640
This man is the truth.

2396
02:08:23,640 --> 02:08:28,320
Number three and last but certainly not least is the y'all part.

2397
02:08:28,320 --> 02:08:33,480
You listeners, before our show kicked off, I posted emails and randomly pulled one of

2398
02:08:33,480 --> 02:08:36,360
your lucky questions out of a hat.

2399
02:08:36,360 --> 02:08:41,360
So for today, the individual we'd all like to mutually thank and give a live shout out

2400
02:08:41,360 --> 02:08:45,240
to is Burger, AKA Mr. Quinones.

2401
02:08:45,240 --> 02:08:49,000
Quinones, Saulo, what's up?

2402
02:08:49,000 --> 02:08:50,600
Rob knows who that is.

2403
02:08:50,600 --> 02:08:51,960
What's up, Burger?

2404
02:08:51,960 --> 02:08:56,720
So what Burger asked us was, why do you think most artists don't ever copyright their music,

2405
02:08:56,720 --> 02:08:57,720
doc?

2406
02:08:57,720 --> 02:08:58,720
I'm going to ask you.

2407
02:08:58,720 --> 02:08:59,720
All right.

2408
02:08:59,720 --> 02:09:00,720
So him and I have worked very closely.

2409
02:09:00,720 --> 02:09:06,000
He actually has three copyrights for t-shirt logos now and companies he's trying to create.

2410
02:09:06,000 --> 02:09:09,320
And when he started getting them back in the mail, he realized that so many artists that

2411
02:09:09,320 --> 02:09:12,440
he looked up don't have fucking copyrights.

2412
02:09:12,440 --> 02:09:16,120
So he's like, he actually made a post on Facebook said, I got more copyrights than some of you

2413
02:09:16,120 --> 02:09:17,900
bitch ass rappers.

2414
02:09:17,900 --> 02:09:20,280
It was funny, but at the same time, it was true.

2415
02:09:20,280 --> 02:09:22,000
So I kind of was proud of him.

2416
02:09:22,000 --> 02:09:25,000
But yeah, Brooklyn, New York and you know, stand up for that.

2417
02:09:25,000 --> 02:09:26,000
And that's where I'm from.

2418
02:09:26,000 --> 02:09:28,140
But easy way to answer that.

2419
02:09:28,140 --> 02:09:31,180
Why do I think most artists don't ever copyright their music?

2420
02:09:31,180 --> 02:09:34,560
So I think it comes down and I think D Rug said it earlier too.

2421
02:09:34,560 --> 02:09:35,880
It's a lack of education thing.

2422
02:09:35,880 --> 02:09:40,400
I don't think people understand what a copyright protects you for and gives you eligibility

2423
02:09:40,400 --> 02:09:41,400
for.

2424
02:09:41,400 --> 02:09:45,960
So like me at radio, like let's say a D Rug record from the new project is sent to one

2425
02:09:45,960 --> 02:09:48,240
of the radio stations in Orlando.

2426
02:09:48,240 --> 02:09:52,380
The PD, the program director to that radio station will reach out to media base and ask

2427
02:09:52,380 --> 02:09:57,640
for an inquiry to show us for us to show them proof that D Rug not only owns this record,

2428
02:09:57,640 --> 02:10:02,900
but it's registered correctly with one of the societies, BMI, ASCAP, CSEC, SoCon.

2429
02:10:02,900 --> 02:10:08,320
I'll pull up the records and look up his copyright if there is one and a look up if your songs

2430
02:10:08,320 --> 02:10:10,640
register a BMI, ASCAP, CSEC or SoCon.

2431
02:10:10,640 --> 02:10:15,420
If it's not, I will let the PD know that it's an invalid record.

2432
02:10:15,420 --> 02:10:16,760
They can play it in a mix show.

2433
02:10:16,760 --> 02:10:22,020
They can play it on local love, but you will never get paid for that record on FM radio.

2434
02:10:22,020 --> 02:10:23,760
And that's all stemming from the copyright.

2435
02:10:23,760 --> 02:10:27,800
Like that's one of the biggest proofs that show that D Rug owns that record.

2436
02:10:27,800 --> 02:10:33,840
So to answer Berger's question, I think it's a lack of education and also maybe it's a

2437
02:10:33,840 --> 02:10:34,840
lack of money.

2438
02:10:34,840 --> 02:10:37,640
I mean, every copyright cost $65.

2439
02:10:37,640 --> 02:10:41,360
You do a 10 song album that's $650 just on copyrights.

2440
02:10:41,360 --> 02:10:42,840
I get it.

2441
02:10:42,840 --> 02:10:48,200
But if you can sue someone for a million dollars later, $65 is well worth that little band-aid

2442
02:10:48,200 --> 02:10:49,200
to rip off.

2443
02:10:49,200 --> 02:10:51,400
So I just think it's a lack of education.

2444
02:10:51,400 --> 02:10:52,680
They just don't really know.

2445
02:10:52,680 --> 02:10:55,380
And I know his brother is a mixtape rapper in New York too.

2446
02:10:55,380 --> 02:10:57,680
And I know where he's coming from with this question.

2447
02:10:57,680 --> 02:10:59,140
I just think it's a lack of education.

2448
02:10:59,140 --> 02:11:01,900
They just don't realize what a copyright does.

2449
02:11:01,900 --> 02:11:05,520
And D Rug, the one thing cool with us, like me and AM and the deal we have with everyone

2450
02:11:05,520 --> 02:11:11,100
to hear my voice, legally by the government, whoever's a writer or producer on that record

2451
02:11:11,100 --> 02:11:12,640
is supposed to split that copyright fee.

2452
02:11:12,640 --> 02:11:17,800
So like take a group like Wu Tang, when you have nine writers, you break a $65 copyright

2453
02:11:17,800 --> 02:11:19,020
fee by nine times.

2454
02:11:19,020 --> 02:11:21,200
It's fucking $7 each.

2455
02:11:21,200 --> 02:11:25,460
So like let's say you, AM and me and Rob did a record, right?

2456
02:11:25,460 --> 02:11:30,200
And it's got the whole, it's got the New York sound from the Nas type of style for me.

2457
02:11:30,200 --> 02:11:34,520
This man ate rabbit AM is fucking Busta Rhymes meets Black Thought.

2458
02:11:34,520 --> 02:11:37,440
Like that's what he's going to come with it.

2459
02:11:37,440 --> 02:11:42,980
Rob is going to sound like a miming version of Bun B. And your motherfucking like pimp

2460
02:11:42,980 --> 02:11:48,160
C like over here, we would split that copyright four ways just to save everyone money.

2461
02:11:48,160 --> 02:11:51,940
And it's so cost effective that people don't understand that you can do that.

2462
02:11:51,940 --> 02:11:57,140
So that's one thing I've been teaching these guys to make things more budget friendly.

2463
02:11:57,140 --> 02:11:59,960
Make that part of your split sheet before you even record with a motherfucker.

2464
02:11:59,960 --> 02:12:04,200
Like give it to them like, hey, we feel that this record could be pushed to radio.

2465
02:12:04,200 --> 02:12:06,120
I'd like to make sure we can copyright it.

2466
02:12:06,120 --> 02:12:10,220
I'd like to make sure that you sign the split sheet that we're going to split that money.

2467
02:12:10,220 --> 02:12:12,780
But we had our education stance right now.

2468
02:12:12,780 --> 02:12:14,660
We had our little education moment.

2469
02:12:14,660 --> 02:12:17,000
I want to drink again with y'all brothers.

2470
02:12:17,000 --> 02:12:20,460
So we're on segment seven, seven degrees of separation.

2471
02:12:20,460 --> 02:12:22,680
It's almost over, boys.

2472
02:12:22,680 --> 02:12:24,120
Just in case we haven't drank enough.

2473
02:12:24,120 --> 02:12:27,420
I got a little bit more left.

2474
02:12:27,420 --> 02:12:29,800
Here's the spot where we change that and fuck shit up.

2475
02:12:29,800 --> 02:12:33,960
We use this little game to test our musical knowledge and history and memory.

2476
02:12:33,960 --> 02:12:36,460
And I want you guys to understand why we call it this.

2477
02:12:36,460 --> 02:12:37,460
All right.

2478
02:12:37,460 --> 02:12:44,420
A theory from 1929 from 1929 and resurrected by the movie industry in the early nineties,

2479
02:12:44,420 --> 02:12:48,820
there was a joke concept or a joking concept that every actor actress was somehow related

2480
02:12:48,820 --> 02:12:54,380
to or related to or linked through movie roles to Kevin Bacon by six degrees and or connections.

2481
02:12:54,380 --> 02:12:58,460
We're crazy enough to test that same theory with urban music and curate our own seven

2482
02:12:58,460 --> 02:13:00,020
degrees Spotify playlist.

2483
02:13:00,020 --> 02:13:02,100
It's a rapid fire game.

2484
02:13:02,100 --> 02:13:04,580
Seven connections by collaborators only.

2485
02:13:04,580 --> 02:13:05,580
Ten second guesses.

2486
02:13:05,580 --> 02:13:07,780
And obviously you can't use Google.

2487
02:13:07,780 --> 02:13:08,780
That's cheating.

2488
02:13:08,780 --> 02:13:09,780
All right.

2489
02:13:09,780 --> 02:13:13,020
Hold on, Rob, before you take over here, I kind of want to do something off script that

2490
02:13:13,020 --> 02:13:16,980
we haven't done previous episodes, but I want to do every episode from now on.

2491
02:13:16,980 --> 02:13:17,980
I love this.

2492
02:13:17,980 --> 02:13:21,700
OK, so so D-Rug, you got your phone next to you, right?

2493
02:13:21,700 --> 02:13:22,700
Yeah.

2494
02:13:22,700 --> 02:13:25,540
I'm going to make you put it away in a second, but are you using it to film you?

2495
02:13:25,540 --> 02:13:26,540
So that's OK.

2496
02:13:26,540 --> 02:13:34,500
OK, so I want you to go to Spotify and find the Twisted Critics podcast and follow it.

2497
02:13:34,500 --> 02:13:38,340
Me, A.M. and Rob, I think Rob already follows your motherfucking ass.

2498
02:13:38,340 --> 02:13:39,580
We're going to follow your Darius.

2499
02:13:39,580 --> 02:13:40,580
You know, D-Rug.

2500
02:13:40,580 --> 02:13:41,580
Yeah, I follow him, bro.

2501
02:13:41,580 --> 02:13:46,300
You all haven't listened to Magnificent Asshole one and two.

2502
02:13:46,300 --> 02:13:47,300
I have.

2503
02:13:47,300 --> 02:13:48,300
I have.

2504
02:13:48,300 --> 02:13:51,460
Hey, I've been listening to that shit all week, bro.

2505
02:13:51,460 --> 02:13:54,180
But I think it's only right that we get him more viewers and more spins.

2506
02:13:54,180 --> 02:13:59,660
And that's and that's the whole idea with one right here.

2507
02:13:59,660 --> 02:14:00,900
Rob's gonna be your A&R in a second.

2508
02:14:00,900 --> 02:14:02,460
I don't know what I'm doing with that.

2509
02:14:02,460 --> 02:14:03,460
All right.

2510
02:14:03,460 --> 02:14:05,020
So you're followed by me, by the way, now.

2511
02:14:05,020 --> 02:14:06,020
So Rob follows you.

2512
02:14:06,020 --> 02:14:07,020
I follow you.

2513
02:14:07,020 --> 02:14:08,100
I'm about to follow you now, too.

2514
02:14:08,100 --> 02:14:10,820
So I'm the hardest 44 year old rapper.

2515
02:14:10,820 --> 02:14:11,820
I am 42.

2516
02:14:11,820 --> 02:14:13,820
So I don't have to compete with you yet.

2517
02:14:13,820 --> 02:14:15,220
All right.

2518
02:14:15,220 --> 02:14:18,660
So now, Rob, tell him the rules now that we're following each other and getting each other

2519
02:14:18,660 --> 02:14:21,900
some more spin in this game.

2520
02:14:21,900 --> 02:14:25,980
Each mistake of us, any of us make, we all take a shot.

2521
02:14:25,980 --> 02:14:26,980
No questions asked.

2522
02:14:26,980 --> 02:14:32,700
And the worst part is y'all three are playing, but I still have to take shots.

2523
02:14:32,700 --> 02:14:35,380
So my life is in your hands.

2524
02:14:35,380 --> 02:14:37,380
He didn't know.

2525
02:14:37,380 --> 02:14:38,380
D-Rug, D-Rug.

2526
02:14:38,380 --> 02:14:40,380
He didn't know about that part, by the way.

2527
02:14:40,380 --> 02:14:41,380
Yeah, I didn't.

2528
02:14:41,380 --> 02:14:42,380
I didn't.

2529
02:14:42,380 --> 02:14:44,260
Last episode, it was me.

2530
02:14:44,260 --> 02:14:51,060
I went last and I left off on the song Money Trees by Kendrick Lamar and J-Rock.

2531
02:14:51,060 --> 02:14:52,060
J-Rock.

2532
02:14:52,060 --> 02:14:53,060
Yeah.

2533
02:14:53,060 --> 02:14:54,060
My shit.

2534
02:14:54,060 --> 02:14:55,060
Mine too.

2535
02:14:55,060 --> 02:14:56,060
NAMs too.

2536
02:14:56,060 --> 02:14:57,060
Darius, you're the first.

2537
02:14:57,060 --> 02:14:59,100
You're the first on the clock.

2538
02:14:59,100 --> 02:15:00,100
All right.

2539
02:15:00,100 --> 02:15:02,500
So D-Rug, you're on the clock, like Rob said.

2540
02:15:02,500 --> 02:15:08,340
What are you connecting to Money Trees, Kendrick Lamar featuring J-Rock?

2541
02:15:08,340 --> 02:15:10,020
Future Kendrick Lamar, like that.

2542
02:15:10,020 --> 02:15:12,060
Oh, that was an easy one.

2543
02:15:12,060 --> 02:15:16,100
All right, I'm volleying it back to you.

2544
02:15:16,100 --> 02:15:19,820
Gloria off the GNX album, Kendrick Lamar and SZA.

2545
02:15:19,820 --> 02:15:20,820
Oh, no.

2546
02:15:20,820 --> 02:15:21,820
SZA.

2547
02:15:21,820 --> 02:15:24,820
All right, let me write that shit down.

2548
02:15:24,820 --> 02:15:25,820
All right.

2549
02:15:25,820 --> 02:15:26,820
Sorry, by the way.

2550
02:15:26,820 --> 02:15:33,340
So Doc J has Gloria or I'm sorry, has SZA or Kendrick Lamar.

2551
02:15:33,340 --> 02:15:34,820
I'm going to go an AM route.

2552
02:15:34,820 --> 02:15:38,500
I'm going to go SZA featuring Don Toliver used.

2553
02:15:38,500 --> 02:15:39,500
Hey, SZA.

2554
02:15:39,500 --> 02:15:40,500
I love it.

2555
02:15:40,500 --> 02:15:41,500
I knew you were going to hit the SZA.

2556
02:15:41,500 --> 02:15:42,500
Go ahead.

2557
02:15:42,500 --> 02:15:43,500
I knew it.

2558
02:15:43,500 --> 02:15:44,500
Big Don.

2559
02:15:44,500 --> 02:15:45,500
And now it's on D-Rug's turn now.

2560
02:15:45,500 --> 02:15:48,700
So I'm doing SZA featuring Don Toliver.

2561
02:15:48,700 --> 02:15:50,700
Don Toliver and Kodak Black.

2562
02:15:50,700 --> 02:15:53,700
Damn, what's the name of that motherfucker?

2563
02:15:53,700 --> 02:15:56,700
I love that song too.

2564
02:15:56,700 --> 02:15:59,700
Oh shit, hey look, if you don't get it, I got you.

2565
02:15:59,700 --> 02:16:00,700
Help him, help him, help him.

2566
02:16:00,700 --> 02:16:01,700
Stone Brothers, Stone Brothers.

2567
02:16:01,700 --> 02:16:02,700
Don Toliver and Kodak Black song.

2568
02:16:02,700 --> 02:16:03,700
Yeah, there you go.

2569
02:16:03,700 --> 02:16:04,700
Brother Stone with Kodak Black.

2570
02:16:04,700 --> 02:16:05,700
Oh, damn.

2571
02:16:05,700 --> 02:16:06,700
I said it.

2572
02:16:06,700 --> 02:16:07,700
Yeah, you said it.

2573
02:16:07,700 --> 02:16:08,700
You said it.

2574
02:16:08,700 --> 02:16:09,700
I call it Stone Brothers.

2575
02:16:09,700 --> 02:16:10,700
Hey, I'm counting on you.

2576
02:16:10,700 --> 02:16:11,700
But he said it though, yeah.

2577
02:16:11,700 --> 02:16:14,700
But that's not hard in the motherfucker though.

2578
02:16:14,700 --> 02:16:17,420
AM, Don Toliver and Kodak Black, it's on you.

2579
02:16:17,420 --> 02:16:18,420
What are you connecting to them?

2580
02:16:18,420 --> 02:16:22,900
I'm going to connect, shit, I'm going to connect Kodak Black, right?

2581
02:16:22,900 --> 02:16:25,700
And then I'm going to fuck the fucking song title up because this is how y'all going to

2582
02:16:25,700 --> 02:16:27,700
wind up drinking, but y'all go ahead and artist.

2583
02:16:27,700 --> 02:16:28,700
It's Kendrick Lamar.

2584
02:16:28,700 --> 02:16:29,700
I got you, I got you, I got you.

2585
02:16:29,700 --> 02:16:33,500
It's Kendrick Lamar on two albums ago.

2586
02:16:33,500 --> 02:16:34,500
Oh fuck.

2587
02:16:34,500 --> 02:16:35,500
Dude.

2588
02:16:35,500 --> 02:16:36,500
What?

2589
02:16:36,500 --> 02:16:39,500
I mean, it was dope.

2590
02:16:39,500 --> 02:16:40,500
What was it?

2591
02:16:40,500 --> 02:16:41,500
Kodak Black's verse was dope.

2592
02:16:41,500 --> 02:16:42,500
Push these niggas like, mmm.

2593
02:16:42,500 --> 02:16:43,500
Push these niggas like, mmm.

2594
02:16:43,500 --> 02:16:44,500
I know that song.

2595
02:16:44,500 --> 02:16:45,500
Damn, you right.

2596
02:16:45,500 --> 02:16:46,500
I don't know the name of that motherfucker, but I know the song.

2597
02:16:46,500 --> 02:16:47,500
I don't know the name of the song though.

2598
02:16:47,500 --> 02:16:48,500
I don't know the name of the song either.

2599
02:16:48,500 --> 02:16:53,500
And I know it was such a obscure fucking song in terms of the album.

2600
02:16:53,500 --> 02:16:54,500
Push these niggas like, mmm.

2601
02:16:54,500 --> 02:16:55,500
Push these niggas off like, mmm.

2602
02:16:55,500 --> 02:16:56,500
I don't know what the name of that song.

2603
02:16:56,500 --> 02:16:57,500
All right.

2604
02:16:57,500 --> 02:16:58,500
Push these niggas off.

2605
02:16:58,500 --> 02:17:01,500
All right, we taking a shot, but what is it?

2606
02:17:01,500 --> 02:17:03,500
Kodak Black featuring Kendrick.

2607
02:17:03,500 --> 02:17:05,500
We're drinking for this one, by the way.

2608
02:17:05,500 --> 02:17:07,500
I'm calling it Push Them Off, but I know that's not.

2609
02:17:07,500 --> 02:17:09,500
I know what they call Push Them Off either.

2610
02:17:09,500 --> 02:17:11,500
I just know that's what Kodak be saying on that, man.

2611
02:17:11,500 --> 02:17:13,500
Are you talking about Silent Hill?

2612
02:17:13,500 --> 02:17:14,500
That's Silent Hill.

2613
02:17:14,500 --> 02:17:17,500
D, I would never knew that shit was called Silent Hill.

2614
02:17:17,500 --> 02:17:19,500
And that's a Kendrick song actually, by the way.

2615
02:17:19,500 --> 02:17:22,500
So Kendrick Lashley's on that step album.

2616
02:17:22,500 --> 02:17:23,500
Yeah, I did not.

2617
02:17:23,500 --> 02:17:25,500
Damn, we're taking a shot for that one.

2618
02:17:25,500 --> 02:17:29,500
That's like the hardest song on that album too.

2619
02:17:29,500 --> 02:17:31,500
I'm stressed out, stressed out, stressed out.

2620
02:17:31,500 --> 02:17:33,500
I need a heart and a heart.

2621
02:17:33,500 --> 02:17:35,500
Salud to y'all boys.

2622
02:17:35,500 --> 02:17:37,500
Salud.

2623
02:17:37,500 --> 02:17:41,500
All right, Silent Hill, Kendrick Lamar featuring Kodak Black.

2624
02:17:41,500 --> 02:17:42,500
All right, so I got to pick up from that.

2625
02:17:42,500 --> 02:17:43,500
I'm going to take Kodak Black.

2626
02:17:43,500 --> 02:17:48,500
I hate fucking Kodak Black, but I'm going to do Kodak Black and Dochi.

2627
02:17:48,500 --> 02:17:50,500
Wasn't that called What It Is?

2628
02:17:50,500 --> 02:17:51,500
I think it is What It Is.

2629
02:17:51,500 --> 02:17:53,500
Let me see, What It Is.

2630
02:17:53,500 --> 02:17:55,500
Dochi.

2631
02:17:55,500 --> 02:17:56,500
Interview.

2632
02:17:56,500 --> 02:17:58,500
Oopsie, oopsie, oopsie.

2633
02:17:58,500 --> 02:17:59,500
Oh, fuck.

2634
02:17:59,500 --> 02:18:00,500
Yeah, What It Is, Black Boy.

2635
02:18:00,500 --> 02:18:02,500
Oh, dude, what are you doing?

2636
02:18:02,500 --> 02:18:04,500
Did he take one?

2637
02:18:04,500 --> 02:18:05,500
Oh, shit, hold on.

2638
02:18:05,500 --> 02:18:07,500
We got a special guest in here.

2639
02:18:07,500 --> 02:18:08,500
Hold on, hold on, hold on.

2640
02:18:08,500 --> 02:18:11,500
We got a special guest in here.

2641
02:18:11,500 --> 02:18:14,500
Was it Dochi featuring Kodak Black?

2642
02:18:14,500 --> 02:18:15,500
Yeah, I think it is.

2643
02:18:15,500 --> 02:18:17,500
Dochi featuring Kodak Black.

2644
02:18:17,500 --> 02:18:26,500
All right, so D-Rug, this is our third host, Candelario Villareal.

2645
02:18:26,500 --> 02:18:30,500
He's from South Texas, but right now with season two in his work schedule.

2646
02:18:30,500 --> 02:18:31,500
He's here, Kandi.

2647
02:18:31,500 --> 02:18:32,500
What's up?

2648
02:18:32,500 --> 02:18:34,500
What's up, brother?

2649
02:18:34,500 --> 02:18:35,500
Kandi.

2650
02:18:35,500 --> 02:18:39,500
Kandi, we are in seven degrees of separation.

2651
02:18:39,500 --> 02:18:43,500
We were on six songs into it, and we've only taken one shot.

2652
02:18:43,500 --> 02:18:44,500
That's impressive.

2653
02:18:44,500 --> 02:18:45,500
That's impressive, right?

2654
02:18:45,500 --> 02:18:46,500
Very impressive.

2655
02:18:46,500 --> 02:18:51,500
Because D-Rug knows his fucking music, and A.M. knows his fucking music, and I know my fucking music.

2656
02:18:51,500 --> 02:18:54,500
It just, the names fuck all of us.

2657
02:18:54,500 --> 02:18:55,500
Names of hearts.

2658
02:18:55,500 --> 02:18:57,500
Give me a look, Kandi.

2659
02:18:57,500 --> 02:18:58,500
All right.

2660
02:18:58,500 --> 02:18:59,500
What's up, brother?

2661
02:18:59,500 --> 02:19:02,500
Kandi, the next segment will kind of slide you in.

2662
02:19:02,500 --> 02:19:05,500
We're just going to outro it out of it, but I definitely want to finish off the segment with D-Rug.

2663
02:19:05,500 --> 02:19:08,500
So D-Rug, you're taking us home, the last connection.

2664
02:19:08,500 --> 02:19:10,500
What it is Dochi featuring Kodak Black?

2665
02:19:10,500 --> 02:19:12,500
What you connecting that to?

2666
02:19:12,500 --> 02:19:14,500
I'm going to hit you with a good ass one.

2667
02:19:14,500 --> 02:19:18,500
Gucci Mane, Kodak Black, and Bruno Mars.

2668
02:19:18,500 --> 02:19:20,500
In the sky.

2669
02:19:20,500 --> 02:19:21,500
In the sky.

2670
02:19:21,500 --> 02:19:24,500
And that, dude, that went like six times platinum.

2671
02:19:24,500 --> 02:19:25,500
It was fucking crazy.

2672
02:19:25,500 --> 02:19:26,500
I know.

2673
02:19:26,500 --> 02:19:28,500
That's why I said I was going to hit you with a good one.

2674
02:19:28,500 --> 02:19:30,500
That's why I said I was going to hit you with a good one.

2675
02:19:30,500 --> 02:19:33,500
Dochi Mane featuring Kodak Black and Bruno Mars.

2676
02:19:33,500 --> 02:19:35,500
Kodak Black.

2677
02:19:35,500 --> 02:19:36,500
All right.

2678
02:19:36,500 --> 02:19:37,500
We survived.

2679
02:19:37,500 --> 02:19:39,500
We only took one shot out of that shit.

2680
02:19:39,500 --> 02:19:42,500
I can't even see your faces.

2681
02:19:42,500 --> 02:19:44,500
Y'all like I'm.

2682
02:19:44,500 --> 02:19:46,500
How are you going to work today, man?

2683
02:19:46,500 --> 02:19:48,500
He got to go to work today.

2684
02:19:48,500 --> 02:19:50,500
I'm going to make it happen.

2685
02:19:50,500 --> 02:19:52,500
I'm going to make it happen.

2686
02:19:52,500 --> 02:19:53,500
I'm going to work today.

2687
02:19:53,500 --> 02:19:54,500
I'm going to make it happen.

2688
02:19:54,500 --> 02:19:55,500
I'm going to work today.

2689
02:19:55,500 --> 02:19:57,500
You're going to work today?

2690
02:19:57,500 --> 02:19:58,500
I'm going to work today.

2691
02:19:58,500 --> 02:20:00,500
Man, don't go to work today.

2692
02:20:00,500 --> 02:20:01,500
No sir.

2693
02:20:01,500 --> 02:20:02,500
I'm going to get fired today.

2694
02:20:02,500 --> 02:20:03,500
Yo, Mrs. Jenner.

2695
02:20:03,500 --> 02:20:05,500
If you do go to work, you're going to fall out.

2696
02:20:05,500 --> 02:20:06,500
Go to cover Amalands on you.

2697
02:20:06,500 --> 02:20:11,500
By the way, Ms. Jenner, because of Rob Lawrence, we'd like to get a sponsorship or something

2698
02:20:11,500 --> 02:20:12,500
with your liquor.

2699
02:20:12,500 --> 02:20:13,500
That'd be great.

2700
02:20:13,500 --> 02:20:15,500
So with that done, man, AM, take us home, bro.

2701
02:20:15,500 --> 02:20:18,500
Every single time that game.

2702
02:20:18,500 --> 02:20:20,500
It didn't get us this time.

2703
02:20:20,500 --> 02:20:26,500
So, D-Rug, I truly hope you enjoyed your time as much as we had.

2704
02:20:26,500 --> 02:20:27,500
Doc was not lying.

2705
02:20:27,500 --> 02:20:28,500
You were funny, motherfucker.

2706
02:20:28,500 --> 02:20:29,500
We laughed the entire time.

2707
02:20:29,500 --> 02:20:30,500
This is one of my favorite shows we had.

2708
02:20:30,500 --> 02:20:33,500
I'm glad we got to peel back the onion layers and get to know you a lot more.

2709
02:20:33,500 --> 02:20:34,500
We related to you.

2710
02:20:34,500 --> 02:20:35,500
You could hear me and Rob the entire time.

2711
02:20:35,500 --> 02:20:36,500
That's me, Spider-Man.

2712
02:20:36,500 --> 02:20:37,500
I can't wait to hear your new music.

2713
02:20:37,500 --> 02:20:38,500
You already heard.

2714
02:20:38,500 --> 02:20:39,500
We've been listening.

2715
02:20:39,500 --> 02:20:44,500
I can't wait to see you in your future role, in your movie role that you got bubbling coming

2716
02:20:44,500 --> 02:20:45,500
up right now.

2717
02:20:45,500 --> 02:20:46,500
You officially have survived.

2718
02:20:46,500 --> 02:20:47,500
You have graduated.

2719
02:20:47,500 --> 02:20:50,500
And now you are a real twisted critic.

2720
02:20:50,500 --> 02:20:51,500
Seriously, D-Rug, you handy.

2721
02:20:51,500 --> 02:20:52,500
That ain't got a gang, son.

2722
02:20:52,500 --> 02:20:57,500
You ain't got a gang sign yet.

2723
02:20:57,500 --> 02:20:58,500
No, no gang sign yet.

2724
02:20:58,500 --> 02:20:59,500
Not yet.

2725
02:20:59,500 --> 02:21:02,500
I mean, our gang sign is a shot glass.

2726
02:21:02,500 --> 02:21:03,500
I got a shot glass.

2727
02:21:03,500 --> 02:21:04,500
That's what you got to do.

2728
02:21:04,500 --> 02:21:05,500
That's a gang sign.

2729
02:21:05,500 --> 02:21:06,500
Everybody got to throw up that shot glass.

2730
02:21:06,500 --> 02:21:07,500
Throw up the shot glass.

2731
02:21:07,500 --> 02:21:08,500
This is my gang sign.

2732
02:21:08,500 --> 02:21:09,500
I'm a gang member.

2733
02:21:09,500 --> 02:21:12,500
I'm going to be mean for a second, right?

2734
02:21:12,500 --> 02:21:13,500
So we appreciate your stories.

2735
02:21:13,500 --> 02:21:18,500
You handed yourself well, your personality, your knowledge, your point of view.

2736
02:21:18,500 --> 02:21:20,500
I hope my brothers here saw that.

2737
02:21:20,500 --> 02:21:25,500
I got so much love for you.

2738
02:21:25,500 --> 02:21:27,500
And we're really thankful for your time.

2739
02:21:27,500 --> 02:21:33,500
Collectively speaking for A.M., Rob, myself, Candy down there who's actually in with us.

2740
02:21:33,500 --> 02:21:35,500
We thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

2741
02:21:35,500 --> 02:21:38,500
We definitely thank you from the bottom of our hearts for sticking with us, thinking

2742
02:21:38,500 --> 02:21:40,500
with us, and drinking with us.

2743
02:21:40,500 --> 02:21:43,500
And because you are on all these different platforms where you interview motherfuckers,

2744
02:21:43,500 --> 02:21:46,500
we should probably take a shot just once more.

2745
02:21:46,500 --> 02:21:48,500
Oopsie, oopsie, oopsie.

2746
02:21:48,500 --> 02:21:49,500
Oh, fuck.

2747
02:21:49,500 --> 02:21:50,500
That's my last little bit.

2748
02:21:50,500 --> 02:21:52,500
It's my last little.

2749
02:21:52,500 --> 02:21:54,500
Chug it, baby.

2750
02:21:54,500 --> 02:21:58,500
You've been chugging that beer for a minute, D-Rub.

2751
02:21:58,500 --> 02:22:00,500
Salud, salud.

2752
02:22:00,500 --> 02:22:01,500
That was the last drop there.

2753
02:22:01,500 --> 02:22:02,500
Salud.

2754
02:22:02,500 --> 02:22:03,500
I was able to twist this off.

2755
02:22:03,500 --> 02:22:08,500
This is how y'all know I messed up.

2756
02:22:08,500 --> 02:22:12,500
No, on the real, though, the beauty with Twisted Critics is now you have an open door invite.

2757
02:22:12,500 --> 02:22:19,500
Anytime you have a new project, new event, new single, new news, new role, new life, win.

2758
02:22:19,500 --> 02:22:21,500
I don't care if you have a new baby coming.

2759
02:22:21,500 --> 02:22:25,500
Give us a call and consider us your second home to come back and talk about your victories

2760
02:22:25,500 --> 02:22:29,500
because we got lots of love for you, and I think it's just a natural place where we can

2761
02:22:29,500 --> 02:22:31,500
have fun and talk about all your wins.

2762
02:22:31,500 --> 02:22:36,500
Yes, I definitely will be doing that because shit finna get crazy.

2763
02:22:36,500 --> 02:22:38,500
Got a new movie coming out called Levels.

2764
02:22:38,500 --> 02:22:44,500
I'll be in Levels, and then I'm about to start filming this Christmas hood movie.

2765
02:22:44,500 --> 02:22:51,500
That'll be out next Christmas, and I'm definitely dropping probably at least two EPs next year,

2766
02:22:51,500 --> 02:22:52,500
guaranteed.

2767
02:22:52,500 --> 02:22:54,500
You're gonna get some EPs from me.

2768
02:22:54,500 --> 02:22:59,500
Before Rob goes to the final conclusion, I am starting on a brand new EP right now.

2769
02:22:59,500 --> 02:23:01,500
I just had producers sending me beats.

2770
02:23:01,500 --> 02:23:03,500
I know AM's gonna be on a couple records.

2771
02:23:03,500 --> 02:23:05,500
I know Rob's gonna be in a couple records.

2772
02:23:05,500 --> 02:23:07,500
I need the pimp player in the place.

2773
02:23:07,500 --> 02:23:11,500
I need Willie Simpson on that type of record right now.

2774
02:23:11,500 --> 02:23:13,500
That is, man, send me some.

2775
02:23:13,500 --> 02:23:14,500
Let's do something.

2776
02:23:14,500 --> 02:23:19,500

2781
02:23:30,500 --> 02:23:31,500

We appreciate you being here, seeing your hard work.

02:23:42,500 --> 02:23:47,500
We love talking to you through the charts, sharing drinks.

2787

Girl, I got nothing to hide.

2874
02:27:27,620 --> 02:27:30,220
Hey, I'm so transparent, dog.

2875
02:27:30,220 --> 02:27:31,700
You can't even fuck with me.

2876
02:27:31,700 --> 02:27:33,660
I ain't trying to hide nothing.

2877
02:27:33,660 --> 02:27:36,140
All right, Candy, you got it here, Mad Label.

2878
02:27:36,140 --> 02:27:39,660
Why don't you give us a little plug and what you'll be doing next week?

2879
02:27:39,660 --> 02:27:48,540
As Candy, my voice a little hoarse, I'm a little sick right now, but I should be finding

2880
02:27:48,540 --> 02:27:51,980
out the gender of my baby, hopefully next week.

2881
02:27:51,980 --> 02:27:56,820
By the way, Candy, I have not told them that, so this is news to them.

2882
02:27:56,820 --> 02:27:57,820
Big news.

2883
02:27:57,820 --> 02:27:59,580
Go on, drop in the news here first.

2884
02:27:59,580 --> 02:28:00,580
You already heard.

2885
02:28:00,580 --> 02:28:01,580
Damn.

2886
02:28:01,580 --> 02:28:02,580
Big news.

2887
02:28:02,580 --> 02:28:03,580
Big news.

2888
02:28:03,580 --> 02:28:05,580
Take that, take that.

2889
02:28:05,580 --> 02:28:06,580
How many months along is she?

2890
02:28:06,580 --> 02:28:10,020
She's going to be, I think, 11, 12 weeks.

2891
02:28:10,020 --> 02:28:14,860
Still early on, but too sweet in the streets, extra spicy in the sheets.

2892
02:28:14,860 --> 02:28:15,860
Extra spicy is.

2893
02:28:15,860 --> 02:28:16,860
You proved it.

2894
02:28:16,860 --> 02:28:17,860
You just proved it.

2895
02:28:17,860 --> 02:28:18,860
You just proved it.

2896
02:28:18,860 --> 02:28:21,860
She got a bell pepper in there right now.

2897
02:28:21,860 --> 02:28:24,620
More than a bell pepper.

2898
02:28:24,620 --> 02:28:27,820
It's extra spicy.

2899
02:28:27,820 --> 02:28:28,820
That's a habanero, bro.

2900
02:28:28,820 --> 02:28:33,300
Extra spicy in the sheets, baby.

2901
02:28:33,300 --> 02:28:34,580
That's some awesome news, bro.

2902
02:28:34,580 --> 02:28:37,020
I'm really proud of you and I'm happy for you guys.

2903
02:28:37,020 --> 02:28:38,020
Bro, bendiciones, bro.

2904
02:28:38,020 --> 02:28:39,020
Gracias a yo.

2905
02:28:39,020 --> 02:28:42,020
I'm going to turn it on a second.

2906
02:28:42,020 --> 02:28:43,020
All right.

2907
02:28:43,020 --> 02:28:44,020
You need an Uber.

2908
02:28:44,020 --> 02:28:45,020
You need an Uber.

2909
02:28:45,020 --> 02:28:47,780
You need to hit up Elon Musk and teleport to work.

2910
02:28:47,780 --> 02:28:48,780
You cannot be driving.

2911
02:28:48,780 --> 02:28:49,780
I got an hour.

2912
02:28:49,780 --> 02:28:50,780
I'm good.

2913
02:28:50,780 --> 02:28:55,220
Can you imagine me ordering food from this guy?

2914
02:28:55,220 --> 02:28:57,660
He's going to be like, I suggest to you a.

2915
02:28:57,660 --> 02:28:59,660
I'm not going to remember any of this.

2916
02:28:59,660 --> 02:29:00,660
It's fine.

2917
02:29:00,660 --> 02:29:01,660
One time.

2918
02:29:01,660 --> 02:29:03,260
This is why I stopped drinking last week, man.

2919
02:29:03,260 --> 02:29:04,740
I get like Rob.

2920
02:29:04,740 --> 02:29:07,500
I thought I was going to get like Rob this episode.

2921
02:29:07,500 --> 02:29:08,860
I'm kind of like I'm a GM.

2922
02:29:08,860 --> 02:29:09,860
I'm a GM.

2923
02:29:09,860 --> 02:29:12,860
I feel bad that I'm more drunk than you are, Doc.

2924
02:29:12,860 --> 02:29:13,860
It takes a lot.

2925
02:29:13,860 --> 02:29:14,860
Sorry.

2926
02:29:14,860 --> 02:29:16,860
A lot of people have tried to challenge it and they just keep losing.

2927
02:29:16,860 --> 02:29:19,380
So I'm not going to remember any of this.

2928
02:29:19,380 --> 02:29:20,380
I'm Rob.

2929
02:29:20,380 --> 02:29:22,380
Rob from the motherfucking mob.

2930
02:29:22,380 --> 02:29:23,860
Nick was happy.

2931
02:29:23,860 --> 02:29:27,580
There is another thing with Rob, too, is we did a Grammy episode and this dude kind of

2932
02:29:27,580 --> 02:29:32,180
came like classy dressed and he had like some expensive bottle of liquor.

2933
02:29:32,180 --> 02:29:35,500
And this last year was the very first year I was eligible to vote for the Grammy.

2934
02:29:35,500 --> 02:29:39,860
So like every step of the way, I kind of educated these guys on what I'm going through.

2935
02:29:39,860 --> 02:29:43,700
So I made a playlist for them so they knew like once I put my votes in, I'm like, all

2936
02:29:43,700 --> 02:29:45,660
right, what do you guys think I should have voted for?

2937
02:29:45,660 --> 02:29:50,180
And we did a whole episode on it near the like the last like let's say it's like one

2938
02:29:50,180 --> 02:29:52,780
fit, like the fourth fifth of the episode.

2939
02:29:52,780 --> 02:29:55,140
This bitch like disappeared and passed out.

2940
02:29:55,140 --> 02:29:58,020
You guys have me drinking, bro.

2941
02:29:58,020 --> 02:29:59,020
I would drink it.

2942
02:29:59,020 --> 02:30:00,020
I'm getting fucked up.

2943
02:30:00,020 --> 02:30:01,020
It was ridiculous.

2944
02:30:01,020 --> 02:30:05,420
So to close out my week, I'm going back to the courthouse tomorrow.

2945
02:30:05,420 --> 02:30:07,660
I work a full week next week, Monday through Friday.

2946
02:30:07,660 --> 02:30:12,060
It'll be the first week without my assistant director who looks out for me.

2947
02:30:12,060 --> 02:30:13,500
So that's going to be brand new.

2948
02:30:13,500 --> 02:30:17,780
Hopefully I don't got the Canadian on my ass, hopefully anymore.

2949
02:30:17,780 --> 02:30:19,100
That fucking stool pigeon.

2950
02:30:19,100 --> 02:30:22,540
But anyways, he's a rat.

2951
02:30:22,540 --> 02:30:24,860
But no, he's a goat, doc.

2952
02:30:24,860 --> 02:30:25,860
He's a goat.

2953
02:30:25,860 --> 02:30:27,940
Oh, you missed the whole the whole spiel with that.

2954
02:30:27,940 --> 02:30:29,140
He's a fucking rat.

2955
02:30:29,140 --> 02:30:31,460
He's a rat.

2956
02:30:31,460 --> 02:30:32,460
You're mad.

2957
02:30:32,460 --> 02:30:33,460
He's singing.

2958
02:30:33,460 --> 02:30:34,460
I love Drake.

2959
02:30:34,460 --> 02:30:36,020
But he got not bad.

2960
02:30:36,020 --> 02:30:37,020
It's real.

2961
02:30:37,020 --> 02:30:38,740
He's singing like a canary.

2962
02:30:38,740 --> 02:30:41,180
Like, you know me, I'm semi Drake hater.

2963
02:30:41,180 --> 02:30:45,300
But to what he pulled on us was the biggest bullshit ever.

2964
02:30:45,300 --> 02:30:49,800
So you know what my slides like my PowerPoint, my Excel spreadsheets for the radio charts

2965
02:30:49,800 --> 02:30:53,100
I put up every Monday candy.

2966
02:30:53,100 --> 02:30:58,540
So they wanted to know that they named in that petition for lawsuit media based slash

2967
02:30:58,540 --> 02:31:00,060
I heart radio.

2968
02:31:00,060 --> 02:31:01,060
So I heart media.

2969
02:31:01,060 --> 02:31:04,780
So they're basically saying that we're faking the numbers for Kendrick Lamar's song, Not

2970
02:31:04,780 --> 02:31:05,880
Like Us.

2971
02:31:05,880 --> 02:31:09,820
So they wanted me to go back with all of my Excel spreadsheets back to January, even though

2972
02:31:09,820 --> 02:31:12,900
Not Like Us didn't hit radio until August.

2973
02:31:12,900 --> 02:31:13,900
Fuck Drake.

2974
02:31:13,900 --> 02:31:14,900
No, that's good.

2975
02:31:14,900 --> 02:31:15,900
That's why I don't go outside.

2976
02:31:15,900 --> 02:31:16,900
It's real oppie outside.

2977
02:31:16,900 --> 02:31:17,900
You got doc.

2978
02:31:17,900 --> 02:31:18,900
Doc's the op.

2979
02:31:18,900 --> 02:31:19,900
Doc's the op right now.

2980
02:31:19,900 --> 02:31:24,900
No, actually, actually, Drake is the op.

2981
02:31:24,900 --> 02:31:27,980
But that's why I don't say his name.

2982
02:31:27,980 --> 02:31:28,980
It's the Canadian.

2983
02:31:28,980 --> 02:31:29,980
I stay away from Canadian.

2984
02:31:29,980 --> 02:31:30,980
Canadian.

2985
02:31:30,980 --> 02:31:31,980
Canadian.

2986
02:31:31,980 --> 02:31:39,500
With that said, if you guys want to check us out on social media's Facebook backslash

2987
02:31:39,500 --> 02:31:43,660
twisted critics, you guys can drop us questions there for next and any next episodes that

2988
02:31:43,660 --> 02:31:45,420
we're going to have.

2989
02:31:45,420 --> 02:31:52,140
And if you're an artist or comedian or producer or radio record exec, you can actually turn

2990
02:31:52,140 --> 02:31:56,020
in a bio to us and be on this guest of this podcast.

2991
02:31:56,020 --> 02:31:57,740
You can listen to D rug himself.

2992
02:31:57,740 --> 02:31:59,940
I think he had a pretty good fucking time.

2993
02:31:59,940 --> 02:32:01,980
Hell yeah, I did.

2994
02:32:01,980 --> 02:32:02,980
I did.

2995
02:32:02,980 --> 02:32:03,980
I did.

2996
02:32:03,980 --> 02:32:07,220
And we just want more people that are real and actually talk with their emotions.

2997
02:32:07,220 --> 02:32:09,900
And D rug hit every base on that one.

2998
02:32:09,900 --> 02:32:10,900
He had Grand Slam.

2999
02:32:10,900 --> 02:32:15,280
And like I said, I'm getting producers beats in now to work on my own EP.

3000
02:32:15,280 --> 02:32:17,020
So I'm going to have what I'm doing.

3001
02:32:17,020 --> 02:32:18,780
And D rug, you can hear it out.

3002
02:32:18,780 --> 02:32:20,260
I'm writing hooks first.

3003
02:32:20,260 --> 02:32:24,160
And once I lay down the hooks, if this hook sounds like Rob on the sentence Rob, if this

3004
02:32:24,160 --> 02:32:26,340
hook sounds like a M on a sent to a M.

3005
02:32:26,340 --> 02:32:28,500
If this hook sounds like D, I'm going to send it to D.

3006
02:32:28,500 --> 02:32:29,500
Rod.

3007
02:32:29,500 --> 02:32:30,500
Yes.

3008
02:32:30,500 --> 02:32:31,500
Send me some.

3009
02:32:31,500 --> 02:32:32,500
Let's work.

3010
02:32:32,500 --> 02:32:33,500
Yeah.

3011
02:32:33,500 --> 02:32:35,060
With that, with that, we're going to peace out and say goodbye.

3012
02:32:35,060 --> 02:32:37,100
Have a good evening to all our listeners.

3013
02:32:37,100 --> 02:32:38,700
Y'all have a great weekend.

3014
02:32:38,700 --> 02:32:39,860
Great week.

3015
02:32:39,860 --> 02:32:40,860
And we'll see you next episode.

3016
02:32:40,860 --> 02:32:41,860

3017
02:32:41,860 --> 02:32:42,860
