=== Drake's Creative Prompter Moments (07:19) ===

[00:00:00]  Drake says to me, yo, you got 30 minutes.
[00:00:03]  Get all straight.
[00:00:04]  Let's say all allegations are false on both sides.
[00:00:07]  Who's winning this battle?
[00:00:08]  It's still Ken.
[00:00:09]  No.
[00:00:10]  What is the next move for Drake?
[00:00:11]  It's on his way out of us.
[00:00:12]  Did Drake feed him that information about the daughter?
[00:00:15]  The objective, actually.
[00:00:16]  I do believe the daughter thing.
[00:00:18]  I don't believe the other thing.
[00:00:19]  I found out that Metro Booming hated Drake before it was like universally known.
[00:00:24]  Because he smashed LA.
[00:00:25]  I smashed it.
[00:00:26]  They always just tell every detail.
[00:00:27]  But I will tell you this.
[00:00:28]  When this whole thing pops off, the weekend has to meal.
[00:00:30]  And he says.
[00:00:32]  What's up, everybody?
[00:00:32]  Welcome to Flagrance.
[00:00:34]  First of all, I just want to thank you guys so much, everybody who came out to MSG.
[00:00:37]  And yeah, that was crazy, crazy.
[00:00:39]  Dreams come true.
[00:00:40]  Pretty wild.
[00:00:42]  Yeah, we'll definitely talk about that later.
[00:00:44]  Also, thank you, everybody who watched the roast.
[00:00:47]  That was a really, that was a really crazy experience.
[00:00:50]  And I mean this in like a non-joking way at all, but Gronk is one of the like whatever you think he is, he will exceed that in a in a shocking way.
[00:01:05]  Like this is my first interaction with Gronk.
[00:01:08]  You ready?
[00:01:08]  Yeah.
[00:01:09]  He's standing by a bathroom.
[00:01:11]  Yeah.
[00:01:11]  I walk up.
[00:01:13]  It's Gronk, Bert, Tom.
[00:01:16]  Okay.
[00:01:17]  I walk up, we're talking, and I go, I don't even know why Tom Brady is doing this, Tom, Tom Segura.
[00:01:22]  My own like Tom Brady is doing this.
[00:01:25]  And Gronk goes, oh man, you know, sometimes you just get bored, you know?
[00:01:28]  Like sometimes it's just, you know, you're sitting in your apartment, you're an apartment for eight days, you're not doing anything.
[00:01:34]  You just want to fucking kill yourself.
[00:01:38]  This is before the roast has even started.
[00:01:40]  We're in the hallway.
[00:01:41]  I just put my hand on his shoulder.
[00:01:42]  I go, I can't do this right now.
[00:01:46]  I'm not walking you off this fucking bridge.
[00:01:48]  We're going to lock in and be funny.
[00:01:49]  I got to call you a retard in 30 minutes or three hours and 30 minutes, bro.
[00:01:55]  He probably loved the roast being called a retard because he felt something.
[00:01:58]  Do he felt like he wasn't?
[00:02:00]  Dude, that shit was getting to him, bro.
[00:02:03]  Did you think?
[00:02:03]  Yes.
[00:02:04]  He was like, in the beginning, he's like, okay, first couple people shot at me and then eventually he's like, why do they keep making the same jokes about it?
[00:02:12]  Like, I don't think that's true.
[00:02:13]  There are so many things behind the scenes that I want to tell you guys about.
[00:02:17]  First of all, you know when Gronk spiked the shot glass?
[00:02:20]  Yes.
[00:02:20]  Yes.
[00:02:20]  That had to hit someone.
[00:02:21]  Real shot glass.
[00:02:22]  Yeah.
[00:02:22]  He was not supposed to be.
[00:02:23]  This is right before I go up.
[00:02:25]  He spiked it.
[00:02:25]  But he's one of those where like the closest thing I can say is there is a video of a kid with Down syndrome that is dressed up as stone cold Steve Austin.
[00:02:34]  And he walks up to his pool and he takes the Bud Lights, he smashes them together and he starts to drink at them as the Bud Lights have already been leaked because the glass is broke, right?
[00:02:43]  That was Gronk.
[00:02:44]  He took the shot.
[00:02:45]  He wasn't even included in it.
[00:02:47]  The shot was about Tom Brady, Belichick, and Bob Kraft.
[00:02:50]  And he's just there.
[00:02:52]  He takes it and he has so much energy, he doesn't know what to do.
[00:02:55]  He slams it.
[00:02:57]  All of us are like, what the fuck just happened?
[00:02:59]  A girl in the front row has like a piece of shot glass like hanging out of her chest.
[00:03:04]  Like, and I'm not talking about a little thing flickering.
[00:03:07]  Oh, my God.
[00:03:07]  His whole cheek is red.
[00:03:09]  Oh, fuck.
[00:03:10]  She looks like a mime.
[00:03:12]  I have to go up afterwards.
[00:03:14]  So I'm just like, all right, what's the witty joke?
[00:03:17]  Like, I'm like, how am I going to?
[00:03:19]  It's not the first time Gronk spiked the drink.
[00:03:21]  You know what I'm saying?
[00:03:22]  Like, what can I acknowledge the moment?
[00:03:24]  And shout out to Kevin Hart, bro.
[00:03:27]  Yeah.
[00:03:28]  This guy is like...
[00:03:30]  Good.
[00:03:30]  Son.
[00:03:31]  Don't you.
[00:03:32]  First of all, he's amazing, but like what he did.
[00:03:34]  Yeah.
[00:03:35]  Like hosts will do this in a comedy show.
[00:03:36]  Like if something crazy happens, they'll reset the room.
[00:03:38]  Yeah.
[00:03:39]  Bring it, bring the energy back down when you bring it back.
[00:03:43]  He took time.
[00:03:44]  Yeah.
[00:03:45]  He calmed the room back down.
[00:03:46]  Didn't even joke around about it.
[00:03:48]  Just kind of like, what is going on here?
[00:03:49]  These guys are kind of crazy.
[00:03:50]  Reset the whole room and even acknowledge it.
[00:03:53]  So I didn't even have to.
[00:03:54]  And I walked up to him after.
[00:03:55]  I was like, dude, you saved my ass, man.
[00:03:57]  Thank you so much for that.
[00:03:57]  Did you even know what you were doing?
[00:03:58]  He was like, yeah, of course, man.
[00:04:00]  I don't want you to have to go up after that.
[00:04:02]  Like, solid guy.
[00:04:03]  Did not have to do that.
[00:04:04]  I'm the last comic on a fucking three-hour show.
[00:04:07]  I peed three times.
[00:04:08]  He didn't get to pee once.
[00:04:10]  Yeah.
[00:04:11]  Within 30 minutes of being up there, I was like, I ain't making you had that Akash thing.
[00:04:16]  I was thinking about you the whole time.
[00:04:17]  The second he brought that TV screen out for Burt and Tom.
[00:04:20]  Yeah.
[00:04:21]  I saw a couple of the football players leave and I was like, I'm out of this house.
[00:04:24]  No disrespect, Burt and Tom, but I got a fucking pee.
[00:04:27]  Yeah, yeah.
[00:04:28]  Left.
[00:04:28]  Apparently, there's a shot of me walking back.
[00:04:31]  Yeah, that's the best part.
[00:04:35]  I'm on the gronk.
[00:04:36]  I was like, directly in front of the camera.
[00:04:44]  Oh, my God.
[00:04:46]  But you did great.
[00:04:47]  Oh, thank you, man.
[00:04:48]  You did fucking great.
[00:04:49]  The jokes were fire.
[00:04:50]  Unreal.
[00:04:51]  I love the moments where you stepped out of the joke because I know that probably the instinct, I assume, is just do the jokes and you're so fucking nervous that's all you do.
[00:05:00]  But the one you were like, Jeff, there's no kids back there.
[00:05:02]  That was great.
[00:05:03]  And then the Kev shit.
[00:05:04]  Kev with Puff?
[00:05:05]  Kev, that's your boy.
[00:05:07]  Fire.
[00:05:09]  It's funny you say that because that was the thing that I found most tricky about this, which is like, how do you, it's not even stay in the moment, but like be in the moment from the beginning.
[00:05:20]  Yeah.
[00:05:21]  And I was like, okay, do I know?
[00:05:23]  Like, I want to just go, hey, we're in the moment here.
[00:05:25]  Yeah.
[00:05:26]  And then do the set instead of being like, here are the jokes.
[00:05:29]  But at the same time, we're also like three hours into this fucking live telecast.
[00:05:33]  So it's like, okay, what can I do?
[00:05:35]  But yeah, those moments are good.
[00:05:36]  Fucking shout out, Nikki Glazer.
[00:05:38]  Absolutely demolished by spreading.
[00:05:42]  I was like blown away.
[00:05:44]  Yeah.
[00:05:44]  She was so fucking good.
[00:05:45]  If you haven't seen it yet, the rhythm was like perfect.
[00:05:47]  And then Tony.
[00:05:48]  Tony, holy fuck, Tony.
[00:05:49]  Amazing.
[00:05:50]  Like, they were just so fucking good.
[00:05:53]  Like, if you haven't seen it yet, it is worth it to watch them.
[00:05:57]  Yeah.
[00:05:57]  Like, they just were just masterful.
[00:06:00]  It was great.
[00:06:00]  And then Bledsoe was good.
[00:06:02]  So, so here's the thing.
[00:06:02]  He's surprising.
[00:06:03]  What makes or breaks a roast is not the comedians.
[00:06:06]  The non-comedians.
[00:06:08]  If the non-comedians deliver, it's a good roast.
[00:06:11]  Oh, dude.
[00:06:11]  Dude, dude.
[00:06:12]  Non-comedian Edelman.
[00:06:14]  Oh, yes.
[00:06:15]  Holy shit.
[00:06:16]  So here's the thing.
[00:06:16]  They took it serious.
[00:06:17]  Edelman was working it out at the comedy store.
[00:06:19]  Really?
[00:06:20]  Like, Drew Bledsoe hit me up afterwards.
[00:06:22]  He's like, dude, we were watching a lot of your stuff and some other guys.
[00:06:26]  Like, they were actually studying game films.
[00:06:28]  They all know how to get out of crazy.
[00:06:30]  But I think that's what happens when you get athletes.
[00:06:31]  They're like, oh, the way to be good at something is to repeat it over and over again and watch people that are good at practice and prepare.
[00:06:38]  And they can be good.
[00:06:39]  And after watching Gronk, I believe he never watched game films.
[00:06:42]  I believe that about him.
[00:06:43]  His joke where he's like, oh, Gronk, touchdown.
[00:06:46]  Oh, Gronk, why don't you do the touchdown?
[00:06:48]  That was personal.
[00:06:50]  That was Dott and Lamar.
[00:06:51]  I mean, Dotton Drake.
[00:06:53]  Yeah.
[00:06:54]  Fuck y'all.
[00:06:55]  When he went off script, I wrote that one.
[00:07:00]  Sam or something?
[00:07:01]  That's in the prompter.
[00:07:04]  No.
[00:07:06]  Like, I'm reading the prompter, and the prompter is written in retard, right?
[00:07:11]  It's like, at one point, that one was creative.
[00:07:14]  See, I'm creative.
[00:07:15]  No way.
[00:07:17]  The one thing that he did, or a few things he ad-lipped.

=== The OJ Kardashian Ad-Lip Incident (15:32) ===

[00:07:19]  One is when he's like, Kevin, I'll make you suck my dick.
[00:07:26]  And all of us were like, okay, he's gone.
[00:07:28]  He's fucking gone.
[00:07:30]  He got excited by the crowd and he's out of here.
[00:07:33]  Oh, dude.
[00:07:34]  Oh, it's probably great sitting next to Burt there.
[00:07:35]  I don't remember who's on the other side.
[00:07:36]  Was Nikki on the other side?
[00:07:37]  No, Sam J. Sam J.
[00:07:39]  Yeah, yeah.
[00:07:39]  So you had homies on both sides.
[00:07:40]  Sam was great.
[00:07:41]  Three hours.
[00:07:41]  Sam did fucking great, dude.
[00:07:43]  I was impressed.
[00:07:45]  Yeah, it's fun when it was definitely fun when Ben Affleck was on, and we were like, what the fuck is this?
[00:07:49]  What the fuck are you doing, dude?
[00:07:50]  Dude, J-Lo broke this man.
[00:07:53]  Son, So what the fuck is wrong with it?
[00:07:56]  Thumbs up and everybody's choked, right?
[00:07:58]  So hype.
[00:07:59]  And because we all have Ben Affleck, Ben Affleck's the man.
[00:08:02]  Yeah.
[00:08:03]  And then he started talking.
[00:08:05]  He like he was defending Tom from internet trolls.
[00:08:08]  And like a few minutes in, I'm like, oh, he ain't even talking about Tom.
[00:08:13]  He's not.
[00:08:13]  He's not.
[00:08:13]  He's talking about Ben Affleck.
[00:08:15]  He's talking about Batman versus Superman.
[00:08:20]  It was personal.
[00:08:21]  Once you saw it, you're like, is this whole thing a proxy for him to just yell at people online?
[00:08:26]  I don't even know if he realizes it, but yes.
[00:08:28]  That's the other thing.
[00:08:28]  He might not.
[00:08:29]  Yeah.
[00:08:29]  Yeah.
[00:08:30]  Crazy.
[00:08:31]  Yeah, it was crazy.
[00:08:33]  Kim Carr, Kardashian, was.
[00:08:35]  She's a pro.
[00:08:36]  I'll be honest.
[00:08:37]  She's a pro.
[00:08:38]  She is a pro.
[00:08:41]  Definition.
[00:08:44]  It must be a video proof.
[00:08:46]  No, what I would say about Kim is that she's striking.
[00:08:51]  She's like perfectly symmetrical.
[00:08:53]  Like you look at her and you're like, oh, wow.
[00:08:56]  But I've never seen somebody be so disassociated in my life.
[00:09:04]  If somebody told me, hey, it's not really Kim Kardashian, she has this like robot where she can essentially control what it says, but it's not like, there's no human aspect to it.
[00:09:16]  I'd be like, oh, oh, I get it.
[00:09:19]  She's a Manchurian candidate.
[00:09:20]  No.
[00:09:21]  She sat with perfect posture for three hours straight.
[00:09:24]  Right?
[00:09:26]  Smiled, laughed.
[00:09:28]  I've never seen anything like that.
[00:09:30]  I just completely detached.
[00:09:33]  So she grew up with a camera on her 24-7 for the past 15 years.
[00:09:38]  But some people do that and they go crazy and they're a child star.
[00:09:40]  They're fucking disassociated.
[00:09:42]  She's dealing with whatever.
[00:09:45]  OJ was in her fucking room before the Bronco chase, like ready to kill himself.
[00:09:49]  Like, that's probably.
[00:09:50]  To give her some sympathy, that's probably pretty cool.
[00:09:52]  Kim had to look at OJ and be like, hey, OJ, I can't do that.
[00:09:57]  Yeah, again, I don't know.
[00:10:01]  I'm sure she's nice and all the other things.
[00:10:03]  The only thing it just looked completely unaffected.
[00:10:06]  Yeah.
[00:10:07]  And even when she was up there, they were kind of booing her.
[00:10:10]  Like, it didn't make her smile.
[00:10:13]  It didn't make her sad.
[00:10:14]  It was nothing.
[00:10:15]  Yeah.
[00:10:15]  There was one guy in the crowd.
[00:10:17]  This is kind of really funny.
[00:10:18]  Like, because the crowd was like basically a Buffalo Bills tailgate.
[00:10:21]  Like, the beginning was like the Hollywood people.
[00:10:24]  And then the stands were like football for me.
[00:10:26]  It's kind of nice.
[00:10:27]  Thank God LA could do that.
[00:10:29]  I think people flew in.
[00:10:30]  Or they're like Boston ties.
[00:10:32]  Right, right, right.
[00:10:33]  Kim's up.
[00:10:34]  She's doing her set.
[00:10:35]  She's like almost at the end of the set.
[00:10:38]  And then this guy, just in the stands out of nowhere, just goes, bitch.
[00:10:49]  I was talking to.
[00:10:50]  It was Gronk's uncle.
[00:10:52]  I was talking to McKeever and Shane.
[00:10:55]  And McKeever was like, it was as if he'd been holding it in for a whole minute and he just couldn't hold it anymore.
[00:11:01]  Like his fists were bald.
[00:11:03]  Bitch!
[00:11:05]  Just seeing Kim Kardashian on stage for three minutes was too much for all that.
[00:11:12]  That was a Kanye fan.
[00:11:15]  No, it was cool.
[00:11:15]  What a crazy thing.
[00:11:16]  Like, how often does Kim talk in front of like thousands and thousands of just like regular human beings?
[00:11:22]  No, as well.
[00:11:22]  Like, you know what I mean?
[00:11:23]  Like, her whole life is so like protected.
[00:11:25]  Yeah, maybe that's why she's dissociated.
[00:11:27]  It was like an overwhelming thing.
[00:11:28]  It might be like, oh, yeah, like you said, like a coping mechanism for it.
[00:11:31]  Yeah.
[00:11:32]  I'm trying to think of anything else I saw.
[00:11:34]  Oh, the fire thing was when Tom checked Jeff Ross.
[00:11:37]  Bro.
[00:11:38]  I think that was 100% real.
[00:11:39]  Oh, yeah.
[00:11:40]  Oh, really?
[00:11:41]  100%.
[00:11:42]  So, Jeff, so.
[00:11:43]  I think it got cut from the broadcast.
[00:11:44]  I'll tell y'all something.
[00:11:45]  The reason why I think it's real is because they told us no jokes about happy endings with Bob Craft.
[00:11:51]  Because I had a Bob Kraft tag.
[00:11:53]  I had that joke about Randy Moss.
[00:11:54]  I was like, Radiant Mars, you may show on Super Bowl Sundays, the only people celebrating a happy ending with a priest.
[00:12:00]  Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[00:12:01]  And then the tag was, and by, and of course, Bob Kraft.
[00:12:05]  And they were like, Tom asked us not to do anything with the massage shit.
[00:12:08]  I was like, all right, cool.
[00:12:09]  Like, the guy's coming here for this thing, like, whatever.
[00:12:12]  He's not getting roasted.
[00:12:13]  He's sitting in the fucking stands.
[00:12:16]  And then Jeff did it.
[00:12:18]  And then Tom walks up and he goes, yo, cut that shit out.
[00:12:21]  Or don't do that again.
[00:12:22]  Don't say that shit again.
[00:12:23]  But think about it.
[00:12:24]  Like, this is the first comic that goes on, a live roast, and it's your night.
[00:12:30]  Yeah.
[00:12:32]  He was ready to shut the whole thing down.
[00:12:35]  That's an alpha-ass move right there.
[00:12:38]  Like for this guy who basically let him go.
[00:12:41]  Yeah.
[00:12:42]  Bob Kraft didn't re-sign him.
[00:12:44]  Yeah.
[00:12:45]  And he still feels that kind of loyalty.
[00:12:47]  Brady would sign team-friendly deals, relatively speaking.
[00:12:50]  So it's not like Kraft overpaid him.
[00:12:52]  Like when they paid Kobe 25 million his last year or whatever, and he was kind of washed.
[00:12:56]  He was like, thank you.
[00:12:57]  Yeah.
[00:12:57]  Brady got let go.
[00:12:58]  He got the opposite.
[00:12:59]  He was like, all right, good luck.
[00:13:01]  Yeah.
[00:13:01]  And still had that kind of loyalty.
[00:13:03]  I thought it was an alpha.
[00:13:05]  Most people would get caught up in that moment and go, I don't want to ruin.
[00:13:08]  And he's like, this shit don't matter.
[00:13:10]  Yeah.
[00:13:11]  What matters is I said to that guy that those jokes weren't going to be made.
[00:13:14]  Yeah.
[00:13:14]  And he agreed to come.
[00:13:16]  And then you broke the rule.
[00:13:17]  Yeah.
[00:13:18]  I think it was that and then Brady's kids.
[00:13:20]  And it was just like, who's going to fuck?
[00:13:22]  Yeah.
[00:13:23]  Talk about psycho.
[00:13:24]  Brady's psycho.
[00:13:25]  He's a psycho.
[00:13:26]  He's the greatest thing.
[00:13:28]  He's also like breathtaking.
[00:13:29]  Oh, yeah.
[00:13:30]  It's like personal looking at him.
[00:13:31]  Like I would like roast him and I'd find myself going to like look back at the cameras too much.
[00:13:39]  Oh, man.
[00:13:40]  I also wonder if he does that early.
[00:13:42]  If he's like, okay, the first thing that crosses the line, I'm going to get up there and make like a little moment to let everyone else know.
[00:13:48]  Like when you fire a guy the first day on set, who is it?
[00:13:50]  Yeah.
[00:13:50]  Horston Wells would do that.
[00:13:52]  Yeah.
[00:13:52]  He'd hire a guy just to fire him the first day.
[00:13:54]  Yeah.
[00:13:55]  That's great.
[00:13:55]  And apparently that's what they're doing.
[00:13:56]  They like set a tone and let everyone know like, yo, don't fuck around.
[00:13:58]  So he's like, the first thing that crosses my line, I'm going to stand up and stop it.
[00:14:02]  And that way everyone else knows like, yo, don't talk about the kids.
[00:14:04]  Don't talk about Bobby Kraft.
[00:14:06]  I wonder if then maybe him and Jeff had that worked out then.
[00:14:09]  Oh, I don't think so.
[00:14:10]  I think he just was like, the first thing that crossed my line, if they talk about these two or whatever number of things in his head.
[00:14:15]  That would make a lot of sense.
[00:14:16]  I'm niping it.
[00:14:16]  Yeah.
[00:14:17]  That's what I'm saying.
[00:14:18]  That makes sense.
[00:14:19]  I was wondering why no one made the kissing his kid joke.
[00:14:22]  Yeah.
[00:14:22]  That would have been.
[00:14:23]  I mean, it would have gone, but at the same time, it's like the way I look at these things is Giselle's a public figure outside of him.
[00:14:31]  Yeah.
[00:14:31]  So yeah, we could talk about that.
[00:14:33]  If it's not someone who's public and it's like family or like children, then I'm like, I don't want to fuck it.
[00:14:40]  Yeah.
[00:14:40]  Giselle's a supermodel.
[00:14:41]  She's used to scrutiny.
[00:14:42]  And that was kind of our line of thinking with the Will and Jada thing.
[00:14:45]  It's like Jada's a celebrity who's been a celebrity.
[00:14:48]  She's asking for attention.
[00:14:48]  She has this show out.
[00:14:49]  Like she talks about her business.
[00:14:51]  So she wants that spoken about as well.
[00:14:53]  Yeah.
[00:14:54]  But yeah, any other reactions?
[00:14:57]  I saw like what's going on.
[00:14:59]  Fucking talk about MSG, dude.
[00:15:00]  Oh, I've got a question.
[00:15:02]  Yes.
[00:15:02]  What was the best joke you thought against you?
[00:15:04]  Oh, that's good.
[00:15:08]  There weren't a ton, I'll be honest with you.
[00:15:09]  Yo, I think, to be honest, I think what everybody thought was, oh, everybody's going to make fun of his haircut.
[00:15:16]  I don't want to do what everybody did.
[00:15:18]  So to give you guys some like behind the scenes shit, it's like everybody's making fun of the same people.
[00:15:24]  So the jokes kind of get used up quick.
[00:15:27]  Right.
[00:15:28]  And so you got to kind of like worry, like, uh-oh, can I do this?
[00:15:32]  Is this going to happen?
[00:15:33]  The later and later you go on the roast, the more and more jokes and topics that cross off.
[00:15:36]  Even if it's not the same joke, if it's about the same thing, it gets a little diluted.
[00:15:40]  Yeah.
[00:15:41]  So like there was jokes that like, so we were working with one of the producers there, right, who was helping us.
[00:15:47]  And basically, he wouldn't tell us.
[00:15:49]  He'd be like, hey, listen, this thing is probably, I showed him my jokes.
[00:15:52]  And he's like, this thing's probably going to be kind of touched on.
[00:15:55]  So maybe you want to cut it or view it.
[00:15:57]  That's awesome.
[00:15:57]  They do that.
[00:15:58]  Yeah.
[00:15:59]  Michael Lawrence.
[00:16:00]  Oh, yeah.
[00:16:00]  He's a genius writer.
[00:16:01]  And he wrote for a lot of the athletes and stuff like that.
[00:16:05]  And he was like, okay, this one is like, we had a good one.
[00:16:09]  It was like, you know, I said something about Giselle and I was like, you know, Tom, I go, Tom, my wife leaving is never something to joke about, but let's take a stab at it.
[00:16:23]  That was the last text Tom got from OJ.
[00:16:26]  And like, but the OJ stuff had been done a little bit.
[00:16:29]  Yeah, yeah.
[00:16:30]  So especially going later in the show, you're like, okay, how can I have a unique angle?
[00:16:36]  But yeah, so these producers are organizing all that.
[00:16:39]  It's quite impressive, actually.
[00:16:41]  Do you know what I mean?
[00:16:41]  Like you have to make sure how many different people on that fucking roast, 15 different people who are all talking about the same topics.
[00:16:49]  Also, guys, dates real quick.
[00:16:51]  First of all, big announcement.

[00:17:29]  AkashTing.com.
[00:17:30]  The roast was phenomenal.
[00:17:32]  It was really a live.
[00:17:33]  Fantastic.
[00:17:34]  Live is crazy, man.
[00:17:36]  Flopping award is like, fuck.
[00:17:37]  The whole joke is done.
[00:17:38]  Yeah.
[00:17:39]  I thought, yeah, that shit was funny.
[00:17:40]  When was the last Grey Roast?
[00:17:42]  Comedy Central days back in the day?
[00:17:44]  Yeah.
[00:17:45]  We love the Charlie Sheen one because of Patrice.
[00:17:47]  Oh, yeah, yeah.
[00:17:48]  That was 12, 13 years ago.
[00:17:50]  Peeber one was good.
[00:17:51]  Yeah, like the Trump one, like there was a run of really great ones that Comedy Central did.
[00:17:55]  Yeah, there's, yeah, it was really fucking good.
[00:17:59]  I feel like Kev tried to come at you at the end.
[00:18:03]  He ain't really have nothing, bro.
[00:18:04]  He ain't really have nothing to say.
[00:18:06]  I'm not saying you bomb, but I mean, he ain't really have nothing.
[00:18:10]  It is funny because you can see the prompters too.
[00:18:12]  Yeah.
[00:18:13]  So you can see the jokes that he had those written.
[00:18:17]  Me and Sam fucked up somebody's joke because I saw a punchline and me and Sam started going, oh, that shit's good.
[00:18:23]  And he hadn't even said it yet.
[00:18:26]  I forgot who it was, but Sam's not laughing at this shit because we reading the head.
[00:18:30]  Bro, there's a part that's so funny.
[00:18:31]  Tony's doing a joke and you just see Bert behind him mouthing the words to the joke as he's saying it.
[00:18:35]  No, I was dying last.
[00:18:37]  I was like, oh, I forget there's a concert.
[00:18:38]  He's been Gronk the entire time.
[00:18:40]  No, he's reading in his head, but mouthing the words.
[00:18:44]  That's awesome.
[00:18:45]  I would do the same thing a million percent.
[00:18:46]  Yeah, I just like to be ahead.
[00:18:47]  I'm like, yeah, it was a, no, it was really good.
[00:18:52]  And I think that like, kind of way I've analyzed it is like, like, I think a year ago, maybe even more, like the idea of, you know, what is it, cancel culture, woke cultures affecting comedy.
[00:19:04]  Like, that's done.
[00:19:05]  Like, if you're still talking about that now, you're just fucking lifting on it.
[00:19:08]  Yeah.
[00:19:08]  But this.
[00:19:11]  Maybe not with everybody.
[00:19:12]  So like 10 minutes in, I'm watching with my shorty.
[00:19:16]  She's really enjoying it.
[00:19:17]  And then she's like, they're being kind of mean.
[00:19:23]  I really feel bad for Gronk.
[00:19:25]  She felt so bad for him.
[00:19:26]  I'm not even making a joke.
[00:19:27]  Culturally, she's not, she knows what a roast is.
[00:19:29]  Yeah, yeah.
[00:19:30]  If you know what a roast is, if you have any idea in comedy what a roast is, you get it.
[00:19:34]  This is all bets are off.
[00:19:36]  My wife probably would have said the same thing if she'd watched that early.
[00:19:39]  She'd been like, oh, but she's enough.
[00:19:40]  You know what I mean?
[00:19:41]  She gets it.
[00:19:42]  You know how like he was ready to check out.
[00:19:44]  She was like, this is too much.
[00:19:46]  This is like, It's weirdly might have happened in the same venue, but you know, like when Magic Johnson said he had AIDS, everybody was like, Oh, this shit real.
[00:19:53]  Yeah.
[00:19:54]  And I think it happened.
[00:19:55]  It was announced at the forum.
[00:19:57]  Okay.
[00:19:58]  I think this will be like the defining point in our generation where people go, oh, the woke shit's dead.
[00:20:07]  And it's already been dead.
[00:20:08]  Tony, I mean, Tony said the F-bomb live on Netflix.
[00:20:13]  But it's like.
[00:20:14]  No tweets.
[00:20:15]  The point I'm trying to make is like it's already been dead.
[00:20:18]  Yeah.
[00:20:18]  But this was a moment where you had people that had everything to lose, i.e. a Tom Brady, a guy who could be worth a billion dollars.
[00:20:25]  He has these like, you know, mainstream connections.
[00:20:28]  He's going to be on Fox hosting the show.
[00:20:31]  Like, and he's making gay jokes and people are making gay jokes about him, racism, homophobic jokes, but nobody really seemed to go, oh my God.
[00:20:39]  And to me, that's like the pendulum swinging.
[00:20:42]  And this is like the cultural point.
[00:20:44]  It already has happened.
[00:20:45]  We've noticed it.
[00:20:46]  It's like you roll your eyes when anybody says woke anymore.
[00:20:49]  But this is like, I think, the moment America realizes it.
[00:20:54]  So we'll see what happens after this.
[00:20:56]  I'm very excited.
[00:20:56]  Maybe that's why there was no good roast for seven, eight years.
[00:20:59]  Whether they could have been, whether it would have gone well or not, I bet suits were like, we can't risk it.
[00:21:04]  We can't take this.
[00:21:06]  That's from the people I spoke to.
[00:21:07]  They're like, yeah, everybody's afraid to do it because the jokes that are funny, they don't want to say.
[00:21:13]  It's not the comics that are afraid.
[00:21:14]  It's the celebrities.
[00:21:15]  And the execs were like, oh, I don't know.
[00:21:17]  This could get us in trouble.
[00:21:18]  Wow.
[00:21:18]  We could have been sponsors.
[00:21:20]  Yeah.
[00:21:20]  That's a great point.
[00:21:21]  They didn't too.
[00:21:22]  Deflate Gates.
[00:21:23]  I was so shit.
[00:21:24]  Somebody put a little asterisk on it.
[00:21:27]  Give me 20 million.
[00:21:28]  I would have admitted it.
[00:21:31]  Now, his set was good.
[00:21:32]  Yeah.
[00:21:33]  Yeah.
[00:21:33]  That Kanye Kim joke is great.
[00:21:35]  Great.
[00:21:35]  I wish I knew Kim was there.
[00:21:37]  I had no clue.
[00:21:37]  Yeah.
[00:21:38]  When I did the rehearsal, I saw a chair that said Kim Kardashian.
[00:21:42]  And I was like, get the fuck out of here.
[00:21:44]  Yeah.
[00:21:44]  And I wonder if the production was saving that for Tom to make that joke.
[00:21:50]  Maybe.
[00:21:50]  You know what I mean?
[00:21:51]  Like, because poor Tom got to go up at the end end.
[00:21:53]  Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[00:21:54]  You know, so like, what does he have left?
[00:21:57]  Yeah.
[00:21:58]  You know, it was sick.
[00:21:59]  Chance.
[00:22:00]  It was cool around.
[00:22:00]  Absolutely chance.
[00:22:01]  And then you talked to Tom?
[00:22:02]  Yeah, yeah.
[00:22:02]  I got to talk to Tom a little bit.
[00:22:04]  How long was the conversation?
[00:22:05]  Tell me everything he said.
[00:22:07]  How did he smell?
[00:22:09]  What did his hand feel like?
[00:22:11]  Just a nice dude.
[00:22:12]  Like, you know, just, I just asked him, one, how he prepared.
[00:22:15]  I was like, were you like working it out?
[00:22:17]  He's like, I would do it in front of the guys.
[00:22:19]  Yeah.
[00:22:19]  So I imagine the guys are like, you know, maybe the players are like his team.
[00:22:22]  Yeah.
[00:22:22]  But it looked like he had done the jokes before.
[00:22:24]  Yeah, yeah.
[00:22:25]  You know?
[00:22:25]  And, but yeah, that was about it.
[00:22:28]  Nothing crazy with Tom.
[00:22:30]  Drew Bledsoe is a fucking G.
[00:22:32]  Yeah, he seems awesome.
[00:22:33]  Like fun.
[00:22:34]  Yeah.
[00:22:34]  Like him and his brothers are fun.
[00:22:38]  They hit the comedy store afterwards.
[00:22:40]  Oh, really?
[00:22:40]  They were there?
[00:22:40]  Yeah, they're just judging Roast Battle or something like that.
[00:22:43]  Like, awesome.
[00:22:44]  They would just, he texts me, texts me, just goes, comedy store, pull up.
[00:22:49]  How the fuck is this?
[00:22:50]  As if you've never heard of that.

=== Dana Woodson's Physical Prep (02:23) ===

[00:22:52]  That's the address, bro.
[00:22:54]  That's awesome.
[00:22:55]  Yeah, they were good.
[00:22:56]  I mean, just getting to meet these guys, Charles Woodson, like just getting to meet these guys.
[00:23:00]  You also meet some of these football players that you've seen in pads, and they're tall, but like a Charles Woodson, like the guys that he would have to tackle.
[00:23:09]  Yeah.
[00:23:10]  And then you see him and you're like, he's not the most physically posed.
[00:23:14]  Also, post-career, these guys deflate like crazy.
[00:23:16]  Well, no, I did it.
[00:23:17]  Gronk is much skinnier.
[00:23:18]  The corner safeties, dude, I did a podcast with old cowboy legend, Darren Woodson.
[00:23:22]  He was a safety.
[00:23:23]  And he would lay the wood on people.
[00:23:25]  He was a crazy, crazy physical player.
[00:23:27]  And then you see him and you're like, oh, he's a little bigger than maybe about Alex's size.
[00:23:32]  Maybe a little taller because you know most people are.
[00:23:37]  Don't you have more respect for him?
[00:23:39]  Yeah, dude, absolutely.
[00:23:40]  This guy's barely taller than Alex.
[00:23:42]  We did the roast of Alex already.
[00:23:45]  You're hungry, me.
[00:23:48]  So, that was that was uh that was really it was really cool.
[00:23:51]  It was really cool to be a part of.
[00:23:52]  So, that's awesome.
[00:23:53]  And, like, yeah, and it felt like an event in terms of social media.
[00:23:58]  Yeah.
[00:23:58]  Do you know what I'm saying?
[00:23:59]  Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[00:24:00]  Remember Twitter back in the day when like something would happen and everybody was kind of talking about the same thing?
[00:24:06]  Yeah, it had that benefit of live live, yeah.
[00:24:09]  Yeah, yeah, everyone experienced something all at the same time, and they're all talking about it, tweeting about it.
[00:24:14]  Like, dude, it's funny.
[00:24:16]  So, before the um, before the show, uh, uh, Rogan texts me, say, yo, I give Dana White your number.
[00:24:23]  I'm like, Yeah, sure.
[00:24:24]  And um, and it hits me up.
[00:24:27]  He's like, Hey, man, can I run these?
[00:24:29]  Can I just run this by you?
[00:24:30]  Because I just need you to know what you think.
[00:24:32]  And he runs a couple jokes by me, and they're funny.
[00:24:36]  Like the thing about Tom, like you know, you've been to Boston, so I used to think you were from there.
[00:24:40]  Then I saw you run.
[00:24:41]  I was like, No, he's definitely from San Francisco.
[00:24:43]  That's a really good few jokes, but the one about the trans, my name is Dana.
[00:24:47]  Yeah, that's not trans enough for you, liberal fucks.
[00:24:49]  He says it to me, and I'm like, I don't know if that's going to go over.
[00:24:52]  I call him back, I go, bro, I don't know if that one's going to really hit.
[00:24:56]  I don't know if that's going to be the one.
[00:24:58]  And he goes, Like, what do you think?
[00:25:00]  I'm like, I just don't know if it's going to get the big laughs.
[00:25:01]  And then he goes, Oh, I don't care about that.
[00:25:04]  I just want them to know I don't give a fuck.
[00:25:13]  Oh, it's going to compliment.

=== 50 Cent's N-Word Stage Moment (05:43) ===

[00:25:16]  And his was actually good.
[00:25:17]  Yeah, he did great.
[00:25:19]  Afterwards, he comes up, he goes, I'm never doing that again.
[00:25:22]  But I thought he fucking rocked it.
[00:25:23]  Yeah, yeah, I think he was doubting himself because a couple times he's like, Oh, no, no, I don't like that or whatever.
[00:25:28]  No, he delivered.
[00:25:30]  It was solid.
[00:25:31]  Yeah, it was a great, dude.
[00:25:32]  Again, the non-athletes delivered.
[00:25:34]  You're like, oh, fuck that.
[00:25:35]  Sorry, the non-comedians delivered.
[00:25:37]  And like, dude, Edelman.
[00:25:38]  That's rocked.
[00:25:39]  I was blown away.
[00:25:40]  Yeah.
[00:25:40]  For a wide receiver football player to make whoever wrote those jokes and for him to be like, let's go.
[00:25:46]  And whatever input he had on them fucking crushed it.
[00:25:49]  Yeah.
[00:25:49]  Crushed it.
[00:25:50]  No, he murdered.
[00:25:51]  He murdered.
[00:25:51]  Yeah.
[00:25:52]  Anyway.
[00:25:52]  Okay.
[00:25:53]  So, yeah.
[00:25:54]  Can we give you some love finally?
[00:25:56]  Yes, man.
[00:25:56]  Okay, sure, sure, sure, sure.
[00:25:57]  Andrew Schultz, Madison Square, going through two fucking shows back to back.
[00:26:01]  Comedy complete.
[00:26:02]  Fucking dreams achievable.
[00:26:04]  Yeah, that was great.
[00:26:05]  Done.
[00:26:06]  That was crazy.
[00:26:07]  I'm done.
[00:26:07]  I literally, I can retire.
[00:26:10]  And I feel like I achieved everything I ever wanted to.
[00:26:12]  Yeah.
[00:26:12]  Say whatever you want to say, then I'm going to compliment you.
[00:26:14]  You're going to get uncomfortable and we'll power through that.
[00:26:15]  But you say what you want to say first.
[00:26:17]  Okay.
[00:26:17]  The most difficult part of the whole thing was trying to not mouth the N-word when 50 Cent was on.
[00:26:23]  It was the only thing that was going through my mind.
[00:26:25]  50s on.
[00:26:26]  First of all, I didn't even know about the unit showing up.
[00:26:28]  So they tell us that like maybe an hour before.
[00:26:31]  Yeah.
[00:26:32]  They're like, we need three mics.
[00:26:33]  And I go, what?
[00:26:34]  And then they're like, yeah, yay-yo, Uncle Murder.
[00:26:37]  I'm like, okay, this is going to be crazy.
[00:26:39]  So they're on stage, they're rapping.
[00:26:41]  I'm like, do not say the N-word.
[00:26:42]  I also, I hope we have video.
[00:26:46]  I have 13,000 eyeballs on me.
[00:26:47]  There's fucking cameras everywhere.
[00:26:48]  I know Shifty zoomed in on my lips because he didn't wait for me to drop it.
[00:26:52]  So I'm concentrating on not saying the N-word.
[00:26:54]  Tony Yeo's at the front of the stage, comes back, right?
[00:26:57]  I hope we have video for this because there's an ultimate.
[00:27:00]  I missed a dap.
[00:27:02]  And by missed, I mean he didn't even acknowledge my dap.
[00:27:06]  I threw the hand up like this.
[00:27:08]  I think he looked at me and just went the other way and I was like, hey, this is nothing.
[00:27:18]  It was fat.
[00:27:19]  I was focusing too much.
[00:27:20]  I'm not saying the N-word.
[00:27:21]  I almost said it right there.
[00:27:24]  No, I think we need to delete all the footage because if you, I'm unfortunately standing directly behind 50 Cent the whole time.
[00:27:31]  And I was in a daze.
[00:27:32]  I'm like, holy shit, this is crazy.
[00:27:34]  I'm like, you would dip.
[00:27:35]  Bro.
[00:27:37]  I don't know.
[00:27:39]  I've never been one of that.
[00:27:44]  I was like, what is how do you dance?
[00:27:46]  A white bitch on faster.
[00:27:47]  Yeah.
[00:27:53]  Don't blame it on the blackout dodge.
[00:27:55]  You know, that's when you're just supposed to feel the rhythm.
[00:27:58]  Well, that's why I want to get the light out.
[00:28:00]  I was feeling it for the first two songs.
[00:28:02]  I was like, wait a second, I feel like an idiot.
[00:28:04]  And then I was looking at 50.
[00:28:05]  I was like, yo, I'm just going to do what 50 Cent does because he's cool.
[00:28:08]  And if I just copy him, then no one can say anything.
[00:28:10]  Okay.
[00:28:10]  And so 50 was doing this move where he's sitting there and he goes like this and he's got his hips going.
[00:28:15]  And so I was like, oh, that's easy to do.
[00:28:17]  I'll do that.
[00:28:18]  And so you just saw me do it.
[00:28:19]  And I was doing the exact same thing.
[00:28:20]  And if you look at 50 doing it, he looks so cool.
[00:28:22]  And then if you cut over to me, I look so bad.
[00:28:28]  I just look like I'm back up there.
[00:28:29]  So I knew Mark is a fan.
[00:28:31]  I just put my arm around him.
[00:28:32]  I just hold him because I knew.
[00:28:35]  Because Derek and I were really into it.
[00:28:37]  And Mark was just alone.
[00:28:38]  And he didn't know how to be too into it.
[00:28:40]  But he is dead center.
[00:28:42]  Oh, my God.
[00:28:43]  Just in it.
[00:28:44]  And the problem is, I did the white, the thing whiter than what happened on stage.
[00:28:48]  I did that.
[00:28:48]  Oh, yeah.
[00:28:49]  We got to.
[00:28:49]  Yeah, that's right.
[00:28:51]  We got to start this.
[00:28:53]  The only thing whiter than what happened on stage was backstage when I was studying the songs.
[00:28:57]  I had videos of this too.
[00:28:58]  So I was with Derek and I was like, hey, what's that one song?
[00:29:01]  It's like, what up, cuz?
[00:29:02]  What up, cuz?
[00:29:04]  And he was like, oh, what up, gangsta?
[00:29:05]  I was all right, cool.
[00:29:06]  I was going through all the lyrics to make sure I knew the lyrics because I'm not gonna, I can't not know the words.
[00:29:10]  Wikipedia.
[00:29:12]  Yeah, because I didn't know what to do.
[00:29:15]  That's all your songs, bro.
[00:29:17]  You didn't drop it.
[00:29:18]  Don't laugh the song.
[00:29:19]  Bradley doesn't even know the beat or something.
[00:29:22]  Oh my god, dude.
[00:29:23]  And then when you don't know the words, just look up at the stance like you're really taking it in.
[00:29:31]  When are you taking it in?
[00:29:32]  Yeah.
[00:29:33]  When I didn't know any words, I was like, wow, look at what we've done.
[00:29:38]  And back to the chorus.
[00:29:39]  What up, Kenny?
[00:29:43]  Sorry.
[00:29:44]  It was unreal.
[00:29:46]  Y'all never look whiter, bro.
[00:29:51]  Derek was so excited.
[00:29:52]  He pulls us both in.
[00:29:53]  He goes, Y'all can say the N-word just this one time.
[00:29:56]  I give y'all permission.
[00:29:57]  Y'all can say it.
[00:29:59]  Try to set you up.
[00:30:00]  Yeah, yeah.
[00:30:00]  Good move not saying it.
[00:30:02]  He tried to drink me right there.
[00:30:03]  Son, dead ass.
[00:30:04]  I swear to God.
[00:30:05]  Oh, my God.
[00:30:06]  There is one moment where I think none of them said the N-word.
[00:30:09]  I think they all ducked it themselves out of like pure professionalism.
[00:30:13]  Like, I imagine they've done this.
[00:30:14]  Like, they were like choreographed.
[00:30:17]  Yeah.
[00:30:17]  It was like really awesome to see what they were doing and really utilizing the whole stage.
[00:30:21]  Like, clearly, they've been doing this shit for fucking got some more respect for our rap live performances.
[00:30:26]  I told you after watching 50, right?
[00:30:28]  I told you the first time in Boston, I was like, this guy can shut it down.
[00:30:31]  Like, it was just crazy.
[00:30:33]  Yeah.
[00:30:33]  And, but they all ducked the N-word at the same time.
[00:30:38]  If you had taken it, if I had said it, I would be the only one in the arena that would have screamed.
[00:30:48]  Like, if I just gronked it, if I got caught up in my mind, it would have echoed her ear.
[00:30:55]  Yeah, stop the tape.
[00:30:58]  Just crazy.
[00:30:59]  Just crazy.

=== Garden Performance Choreography (05:41) ===

[00:31:00]  It was wild.
[00:31:00]  50's a fucking man, dude.
[00:31:02]  Just to do that, like to even awesome.
[00:31:05]  Throw his jacket into the crowd.
[00:31:07]  Like, through his hat, through his jacket.
[00:31:08]  Yeah.
[00:31:09]  Signed it too.
[00:31:10]  Yeah, so he signed it, and then that's whoever got promos dope.
[00:31:13]  Promo, right?
[00:31:15]  I mean, just like, yeah, I don't know.
[00:31:18]  It's also, it was a cool energy doing the show.
[00:31:21]  I'm like hyper concerned with people having a good time.
[00:31:25]  Like, I really want them to just leave there going, like, man, that was just the best night out.
[00:31:30]  Like, yeah.
[00:31:31]  And it felt really cool doing the show, knowing I had this like little ace in the hole, little treat for them.
[00:31:40]  Like, Like the show, thank god was going great, and then it ended, yeah.
[00:31:46]  And I and I looked at them and I was like, Wow, they got a really great show, and then yeah, they get this, yeah, you know.
[00:31:53]  And it was just like seeing their faces was just crazy.
[00:31:56]  Yeah, did you hear me say it?
[00:31:58]  What the fifth of these, yeah, we all heard it, yeah, no, no, but it wasn't clear, yeah, it wasn't clear, yeah, yeah, it was really cool.
[00:32:08]  You said it, and I was in the crowd filming the crowd, and a bunch of people who were like maybe heard it got hyped, yeah.
[00:32:13]  And then he came out, and the whole laser lights up.
[00:32:16]  That's unbelievable, it was unreal, yeah, man.
[00:32:19]  Yeah, I told you I was gonna go see you as a fan this time, and I got yeah, I wanted you to go on.
[00:32:25]  I know, I know, I wanted to come as a fan.
[00:32:27]  Also, I just dropped my whole hour, and I was like, I don't know if I got a tight five for the arena right now.
[00:32:31]  That's a different muscle, but I was before that, I didn't, yeah, of course, you asked, always asks.
[00:32:36]  I loved it, I love you for that.
[00:32:38]  I didn't get to make it to Toronto, so I was like, I want to see him first time MSG as a fan.
[00:32:42]  It was your best hour.
[00:32:44]  Oh, thank you, man.
[00:32:44]  And I, everybody knows how much I love you and gas you and think you're so amazing.
[00:32:48]  For this to be your best hour at MSG, that's a fucking amazing thing, man.
[00:32:54]  And it's like, I was blown away.
[00:32:56]  My wife cried, I cried.
[00:32:57]  It was like a fucking awesome.
[00:32:59]  The jokes were hilarious, non-stop.
[00:33:01]  So, so, so, thank you, so proud of you.
[00:33:05]  Unbelievable, man.
[00:33:06]  I was just like overjoyed.
[00:33:08]  Alex and I hugged each other after the show, and we were like, We're acting like we did something.
[00:33:14]  Yeah, we all made that happen.
[00:33:15]  Like, I mean, years in the making, but 2009 or 8 or whatever the fuck we met, we really had nothing.
[00:33:22]  And then to see you sell out MSG and then deliver.
[00:33:25]  That's the part that it's like you don't people don't often deliver as they get to that level.
[00:33:30]  And for this to be your best, I was like, oh man, so proud of you.
[00:33:34]  Now, if I can criticize you for one thing, my seats were amazing, they were on the floor.
[00:33:37]  Yeah, seat numbers nine through 11.
[00:33:39]  What was that about?
[00:33:40]  No way, what was that?
[00:33:42]  Why I get seats nine, ten, and eleven, bro.
[00:33:46]  That was for Vala's family.
[00:33:49]  How did you end up there?
[00:33:51]  Dude, that reminds me.
[00:33:52]  Remember the hotel that they did?
[00:33:54]  Yeah, 7-Eleven.
[00:33:54]  I've gotten him multiple times by the way.
[00:33:56]  That is just that.
[00:33:58]  He was given room 7-11 by the hotel.
[00:34:02]  But yeah, thank you so much for just coming and being there.
[00:34:05]  And like, yeah, just everything to make it happen.
[00:34:08]  It is crazy to have like a sustained belief in something and dream for that long.
[00:34:13]  It's like 17 years to have like one specific thing.
[00:34:16]  Yeah.
[00:34:17]  And then have it happen.
[00:34:19]  I don't think I've really fully processed it all, but I am incredibly grateful of everybody that showed up and the excitement of the people that want to be there for the moment.
[00:34:29]  I thought that was really cool.
[00:34:30]  Yeah.
[00:34:30]  You know, and yeah, it was just, it was just cool.
[00:34:34]  It's just awesome, man.
[00:34:36]  I don't know.
[00:34:36]  It's just so awesome.
[00:34:37]  Felt so grateful.
[00:34:38]  Get my folks to see me there.
[00:34:40]  You know, yeah, that was so sweet.
[00:34:42]  Yeah.
[00:34:42]  It's just having a cool year, dude.
[00:34:44]  Got a baby?
[00:34:45]  MSG.
[00:34:46]  Yeah, bringing the baby.
[00:34:47]  Oh, yeah.
[00:34:48]  That was when I cried.
[00:34:49]  That was maybe the coolest.
[00:34:50]  That was one of my favorite.
[00:34:51]  And with the headphone.
[00:34:52]  Oh, my God.
[00:34:53]  She was listening to 50 Center.
[00:34:55]  She was saying that weird.
[00:34:59]  She was unbothered, man.
[00:35:01]  Couldn't care about that.
[00:35:01]  That was her moment right there.
[00:35:02]  Isn't that crazy?
[00:35:03]  That was fire.
[00:35:04]  Like, that's what I cried too.
[00:35:06]  You put me in the black row.
[00:35:07]  So I have academics on my left.
[00:35:10]  I have Sean May to my right.
[00:35:12]  That moment happened.
[00:35:13]  This is so funny.
[00:35:14]  I'm holding back tears.
[00:35:16]  Like, but I want to stop bawling.
[00:35:18]  I'm like, I can't have anyone use the same emotions.
[00:35:25]  And then just one just came out.
[00:35:26]  I was like, that's crazy, man.
[00:35:34]  That was so beautiful.
[00:35:35]  I still haven't taken it in.
[00:35:36]  That's so crazy, man.
[00:35:37]  Yeah.
[00:35:38]  It's so fucking nuts.
[00:35:39]  Yeah.
[00:35:40]  Madison Square Garden.
[00:35:41]  Wow.
[00:35:42]  Yeah.
[00:35:44]  Like, it honestly, like, at the end, we took a picture in the stands.
[00:35:48]  It's kind of weird.
[00:35:50]  Like, it's such a weird being a human being, like, the things that you can, I don't want to say get used to, but like, since we have done some arenas, they do kind of look similar from the stage, right?
[00:36:02]  You still walk in, you're like, what the fuck?
[00:36:05]  Yeah.
[00:36:05]  But it isn't, it isn't an experience that we haven't had.
[00:36:08]  In other words, we have experienced it before.
[00:36:11]  Obviously, the garden means so much more.
[00:36:13]  But when we went into the stands and then looked down, they were turning it into the hockey rink.
[00:36:18]  Oh, yeah.
[00:36:18]  At the end, it was just this like, what?
[00:36:20]  When we were walking around and saw concession stands, we're like, whoa, people sell hot dogs at the venue we performed at?
[00:36:28]  I guess weirdly enough, the out being outside of like the performance area is where it really seemed like this second day.
[00:36:36]  I was just second day I was just walking all around.
[00:36:38]  I was just walking everywhere.
[00:36:39]  I was like, feeling it.

=== Knicks Turn Garden Into Hockey Rink (05:08) ===

[00:36:41]  What the fuck?
[00:36:42]  I just couldn't believe this.
[00:36:43]  People selling shirts outside.
[00:36:45]  Yeah, the street vendor making money on the people coming in.
[00:36:48]  Isn't this crazy?
[00:36:49]  Yeah, bootlegs were kind of fire, bro.
[00:36:52]  Were they really hired?
[00:36:53]  Oh, my God.
[00:36:54]  I wish I got to hire them, motherfuckers.
[00:36:57]  I bet it was the dude who made our shirt.
[00:37:01]  Ali.
[00:37:02]  Ali, we need to talk, bro.
[00:37:04]  That's actually a great hustle.
[00:37:05]  You find out what shirt is going to be sold there, and then you just make your own version of it.
[00:37:09]  Oh, yeah.
[00:37:10]  Yeah, have you been to the garden?
[00:37:11]  No.
[00:37:13]  Pay attention to this thing.
[00:37:14]  We should start that.
[00:37:15]  We should do that instead.
[00:37:17]  Also, just how it ended up.
[00:37:19]  Like, the only way that that show could have happened was one scenario.
[00:37:23]  I don't know if I've explained this on the pod since.
[00:37:25]  No.
[00:37:26]  So there was only one scenario that that show happens.
[00:37:31]  Okay.
[00:37:31]  The Saturday show.
[00:37:32]  The Saturday show.
[00:37:33]  Yeah.
[00:37:33]  Sorry.
[00:37:34]  The Friday was locked in, but the Saturday.
[00:37:37]  So basically, the Knicks had to go to six games and win in six.
[00:37:42]  We didn't know that.
[00:37:43]  So I was told all the Knicks had to do was win.
[00:37:46]  They had to just clinch.
[00:37:47]  Right.
[00:37:48]  And in game five, I'm like hoping that they win and then we go.
[00:37:51]  So I start the day of game five going, the Knicks got to win.
[00:37:55]  Midway through the day of game five, they go, hey, if the Knicks win and the Pacers win, then they're going to start their next series on Saturday.
[00:38:04]  You lose your Saturday show.
[00:38:05]  I go, fuck.
[00:38:06]  So I need the Knicks win, but then the Pacers will lose, right?
[00:38:09]  Then a little later, no, sorry, then during the game, we get the text message and it says, if Carolina, the Carolina Hurricanes, beat the Islanders, they'll sweep them.
[00:38:21]  They're going to start their series with the Rangers on Saturday.
[00:38:24]  Oh, fuck.
[00:38:26]  So now I'm watching three games.
[00:38:27]  Yeah.
[00:38:28]  Or no, I'm looking at three different scenarios.
[00:38:30]  The Knicks lose, but so do the Pacers.
[00:38:34]  Yeah.
[00:38:34]  Not like it would have mattered, but they did lose as well.
[00:38:36]  So the Pacers have to extend.
[00:38:38]  Now we're in a tricky situation.
[00:38:40]  The Carolina Hurricanes won.
[00:38:43]  So they can play the Rangers, but the Knicks have priority in that Saturday date.
[00:38:51]  So the NHL has to wait until the Knicks win game six to even announce.
[00:38:58]  Does that make sense?
[00:38:59]  Yeah, I think so, yeah.
[00:39:00]  Basically, what I'm saying is the Knicks own that Saturday.
[00:39:03]  They have priority over NHL.
[00:39:04]  NHL wants the Saturday, but they can't claim it until the Knicks no longer need it.
[00:39:10]  And they won't know until the Knicks win game six.
[00:39:13]  Which is Thursday night.
[00:39:14]  Which is Thursday.
[00:39:15]  And so are they really going to promote, announce, and get all the teams there with the Knicks at one notice?
[00:39:21]  Oh, yeah.
[00:39:21]  Okay.
[00:39:21]  Because you got yourself tickets.
[00:39:22]  Because you have to do all these things.
[00:39:24]  People have plans.
[00:39:25]  There's travelers, everything.
[00:39:26]  So they don't tell us until 3 p.m. the day before.
[00:39:33]  So they have until 3 p.m., we finally get the message the day before.
[00:39:37]  And then obviously the Knicks go close out and win.
[00:39:40]  All right, guys, we're going to take a break real quick because we have to talk.
[00:39:43]  Have you heard that the flavored air category is quickly becoming the leading alternative to vaping?
[00:39:48]  It's a whole new movement towards better habits led by the sponsor of today's video, Fume.
[00:39:53]  Fume is an award-winning flavored air device, and it isn't like vaping.
[00:39:58]  If vapor was like a sugary soda, Fume Cores would be closer to like an herbal tea.
[00:40:03]  They have lots of delicious flavors to choose from, like Chris Mint and Orange Vanilla.
[00:40:07]  I like both of those.
[00:40:08]  This is not a vape.
[00:40:09]  There is no vapor.
[00:40:10]  You can use it anywhere.
[00:40:11]  And most importantly, guys, there is no nicotine and it is not addictive.
[00:40:15]  So if you have these bad habits, like vaping or certain other things that we cannot mention, less electronic versions of vaping, yeah, fume is the way to go.
[00:40:23]  Personally, again, I like Chris Mint and orange vanilla, but you guys figure out whatever flavor you want.
[00:40:28]  Fume has served over 300,000 customers, guys, and you can be the next success story.

[00:41:39]  Now let's get back to the show.
[00:41:40]  But if the Knicks don't lose game five, which was a horrible loss, I think I told you this whole story where my wife jinxed it.
[00:41:46]  Did I tell you?
[00:41:46]  No.
[00:41:47]  We're up six.
[00:41:48]  My wife is watching the game.

=== Ak Quavo Streaming Ceasefire Premiere (15:26) ===

[00:41:49]  She goes, oh, 29 seconds left.
[00:41:51]  She goes, oh, they got it.
[00:41:52]  I go, what?
[00:41:53]  She goes, yeah, they got it.
[00:41:54]  I go, we don't do it.
[00:41:55]  Wait, what do you, what do you mean?
[00:41:57]  Yeah.
[00:41:57]  We don't do that.
[00:41:58]  She says, there's six points.
[00:41:59]  There's only 28 seconds left.
[00:42:00]  There's no way that they can't lose.
[00:42:02]  I go, you don't know the Knicks.
[00:42:04]  Yeah.
[00:42:04]  We can lose any lead.
[00:42:07]  I said, we're the Hillary Clinton of basketball teams.
[00:42:10]  There's not a lead that we cannot lose.
[00:42:12]  She goes, no, it's impossible for them to lose.
[00:42:15]  I go, Emma, you got to shut it down.
[00:42:18]  Shut it down right now.
[00:42:20]  And then she sat there and watched that lead evaporate.
[00:42:24]  And I just saw her get so quiet.
[00:42:27]  It was, this is how I knew she was embarrassed.
[00:42:29]  She started a fight with me.
[00:42:33]  She's like, you're using tone and you're rude with me.
[00:42:35]  I was like, well, maybe because you just destroyed my life dream by making the fucking Knicks loose.
[00:42:41]  But it turns out that's the only thing that allowed that Saturday show to happen.
[00:42:44]  So anyway, thank you guys so much.
[00:42:47]  And everybody who came out and everybody who's, you know, just been instrumental in even making this thing happen.
[00:42:52]  Also, Derek Mark, y'all fucking killed it.
[00:42:55]  Thank you.
[00:42:55]  Oh, awesome.
[00:42:56]  I love watching that.
[00:42:57]  Thank you for the opportunity, man.
[00:42:58]  That's crazy, especially the dance number at the end.
[00:43:03]  I love y'all, man.
[00:43:03]  That's really where it came through.
[00:43:06]  My girl, yo, look up on sex.
[00:43:09]  You knew it.
[00:43:15]  So good.
[00:43:18]  Please send it to me.
[00:43:19]  But yo, thank you so much, man.
[00:43:21]  And thanks to all the team for pulling up too.
[00:43:23]  Miles, Shub.
[00:43:24]  You know, you guys aren't really on the road with us, but to like just pull up and help out in those days, that's huge.
[00:43:29]  And just thank you, everybody who was there.
[00:43:31]  Cassetta was also there making sure audio was good.
[00:43:34]  I mean, it was just all-around team event, and it was fucking awesome.
[00:43:38]  Thank you.
[00:43:38]  Amazing.
[00:43:39]  Got to live my dream, man.
[00:43:41]  I got to live my dream.
[00:43:42]  And that was really cool.
[00:43:43]  And I hope you all get to experience something like that in your life, man, because that is really awesome.
[00:43:49]  Really awesome.
[00:43:50]  Okay.
[00:43:51]  Enough being gay?
[00:43:53]  No more gay stuff?
[00:43:55]  Okay.
[00:43:55]  Guys, we have a beef that has turned violent potentially.
[00:44:01]  Potentially.
[00:44:02]  And we need to discuss it.
[00:44:06]  We need an expert in here to discuss it.
[00:44:07]  And there's only one guy that we can go to at times like this.
[00:44:10]  Absolutely.
[00:44:11]  When the going gets rough, the rough gets, what is that saying?
[00:44:15]  When the going gets?
[00:44:16]  Tough, the tough get going.
[00:44:17]  Oh, yeah.
[00:44:17]  When the going gets tough, the tough get going.
[00:44:19]  Academic.
[00:44:20]  They get academic.
[00:44:21]  Tough get academic.
[00:44:22]  So we got DJ academics in a motherfucking movie.
[00:44:24]  Give it up to DJ academics.
[00:44:26]  Here to make sense of all the madness.
[00:44:29]  Jews and Muslims are fighting.
[00:44:31]  Drake versus Kendrick, talk to us.
[00:44:34]  What do you think, bro?
[00:44:35]  Is Kendrick Muslim or no?
[00:44:37]  Shit, he might be the way how he's going.
[00:44:41]  Terrorized.
[00:44:42]  He's got terrorized boy.
[00:44:44]  He's treating my man Drake like he's pouring.
[00:44:46]  I don't know what's going on, man.
[00:44:48]  I don't know, man.
[00:44:50]  Hold on, real quick.
[00:44:50]  I got to give you the flowers first, man.
[00:44:52]  Yo, listen, man.
[00:44:53]  MSG show, surreal, man.
[00:44:55]  You know, watching someone who is in the entertainment field as yourself and watching what you accomplish.
[00:45:01]  I walked in that building and I had the same first five, 10 minutes that I had when I walked into your Radio City Music Hall show.
[00:45:09]  And it was just kind of looking around.
[00:45:11]  And I'm like, like, this motherfucker did it.
[00:45:14]  Like, how do you even get this?
[00:45:15]  Like, how do you even get to this spot?
[00:45:18]  So, you know, I was very impressed by the show.
[00:45:20]  Mark, you fucking killed me.
[00:45:20]  Thank you, brother.
[00:45:21]  I appreciate it.
[00:45:22]  You annihilated.
[00:45:23]  Oh, thank you.
[00:45:23]  Yeah, fire.
[00:45:24]  And thank you.
[00:45:24]  Derek.
[00:45:26]  Opener.
[00:45:28]  And, yo, watching you up there was just like, I was like, yo, my man really worked.
[00:45:35]  I thought he was going to be overcome with emotion, too.
[00:45:37]  Like, I thought, I thought he was going to cry.
[00:45:38]  I thought you were going to cry.
[00:45:39]  I called that.
[00:45:40]  You didn't?
[00:45:40]  No, I didn't feel it.
[00:45:41]  It was weird what was happening.
[00:45:43]  Yeah, it was weird what was happening up there.
[00:45:44]  I don't know.
[00:45:45]  I was filled with a lot of things, but it didn't make me want to cry.
[00:45:48]  I cried the next day.
[00:45:49]  I was like walking around Saturday.
[00:45:52]  The audience, the audience had the feel, at least from my perspective, and you guys can tell me what you guys thought.
[00:45:59]  It was like they were more celebrating you in that moment where it was just like, they were just happy.
[00:46:07]  They've probably been riding with you forever, my nigga.
[00:46:09]  They're probably dead.
[00:46:10]  They've probably went to shows where it was just you and 200 people.
[00:46:13]  And the first show you put online, right?
[00:46:15]  So tickets probably sold out.
[00:46:17]  These are like the hardcore fans.
[00:46:18]  For hardcore fans.
[00:46:19]  Yeah.
[00:46:20]  No, Saturday would be Saturday first time.
[00:46:22]  Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[00:46:23]  But still, man, it was, yeah, it was just, they knew the moment.
[00:46:25]  They knew like the importance of it.
[00:46:27]  Yeah.
[00:46:27]  You know?
[00:46:28]  And it was cool.
[00:46:29]  It's funny.
[00:46:31]  Charlotte hit me and he was like, he was like, yo, can Ak come backstage?
[00:46:35]  And I was like, yeah, we gave him backstage access.
[00:46:37]  And then we didn't see him.
[00:46:39]  And then Taylor comes up to me.
[00:46:40]  She's like, yo, Drake just dropped again.
[00:46:43]  I was like, oh, this motherfucker, Ak already streaming.
[00:46:47]  That's what I'm saying.
[00:46:48]  This motherfucker is already on the laptop somewhere.
[00:46:50]  You want to begin the story?
[00:46:51]  Okay.
[00:46:52]  So, all right.
[00:46:53]  Well, listen, I'm really big on.
[00:46:55]  Friday night, was it May 3rd?
[00:46:57]  Yes.
[00:46:57]  Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[00:46:58]  So first and foremost, I'm really big on supporting people who have supported me, my guys.
[00:47:04]  You know what I mean?
[00:47:05]  So, Joe hits me, says, I need you to do my pod.
[00:47:09]  I say, say less.
[00:47:10]  I'm there.
[00:47:11]  You're a big show.
[00:47:12]  I'm like, I got to be there.
[00:47:14]  I feel like I need to be a part of this moment and witness you having this experience.
[00:47:18]  I got to be there, right?
[00:47:20]  And I'm like, yo, rap, this songs have been dropping about every 13 hours.
[00:47:26]  And I'm like, you guys got to give me a break.
[00:47:27]  The universe has to be like, yo, ceasefire.
[00:47:30]  Go to Ceasefire.
[00:47:31]  Let my boy get a comedy show into something like that.
[00:47:34]  Like, come on.
[00:47:35]  So I'm like, all right, bet.
[00:47:37]  I'm in there.
[00:47:38]  I'm watching everything.
[00:47:39]  Is great.
[00:47:39]  50 comes out.
[00:47:40]  He loves you, bro.
[00:47:41]  Yo, 50's the man.
[00:47:42]  50 is the man.
[00:47:43]  50 comes out.
[00:47:44]  Everything is good.
[00:47:45]  And I'm like, all right, cool.
[00:47:46]  Yo, I can't wait to get backstage really chopping up with everyone.
[00:47:49]  I see this motherfucker right here.
[00:47:50]  The first thing a cos says to me is like, yo, Crody.
[00:47:54]  I'm like, no, man.
[00:47:55]  I see, I see, I see, of course, Alex.
[00:47:56]  And I'm like, all right, cool.
[00:47:58]  Everything is good.
[00:48:00]  And my phone just starts to explode.
[00:48:03]  Starts to work a little bit.
[00:48:05]  And Drake says to me, no, I asked Drake, I said, Drake, yo, because this is after Kendrick just dropped.
[00:48:13]  I said, bro, you just need to give me the heads up of what's going to be what, because you know, I got to make sure I'm at the right spot.
[00:48:19]  And right now, I'm not in the right spot.
[00:48:22]  And he says, yo, you got 30 minutes.
[00:48:25]  Get on stream.
[00:48:27]  And I'm like, this is the, like, I think 50's still on stage.
[00:48:32]  And I'm like, and it sets the stage.
[00:48:34]  Just Drake has told us he's dropping the nuke at this point.
[00:48:36]  Yes.
[00:48:37]  So he says, you got 30 minutes.
[00:48:38]  I'm dropping the nuke.
[00:48:39]  Yo, I looked at everyone around me.
[00:48:42]  Yeah, that was there.
[00:48:43]  Include my security.
[00:48:44]  And I said, beeline for the door.
[00:48:46]  Get the driver outside.
[00:48:47]  We're going back to Jersey.
[00:48:49]  We might have to run tolls.
[00:48:52]  We might have to drive the wrong way.
[00:48:56]  Instantly, I get back to the crib and I got back with about 10 minutes to go.
[00:49:02]  Yeah.
[00:49:02]  Yeah.
[00:49:03]  Loaded up.
[00:49:04]  I obviously knew what the plane was.
[00:49:06]  Song drops.
[00:49:07]  Just another historic night, man.
[00:49:10]  Did you get the song ahead of time?
[00:49:12]  No.
[00:49:13]  Okay.
[00:49:13]  Does that ever happen?
[00:49:17]  No.
[00:49:18]  Well, I don't want to get this because it's about.
[00:49:21]  You want to react live.
[00:49:22]  Yes.
[00:49:22]  Yeah.
[00:49:23]  That's what people want to see.
[00:49:24]  You taint the reaction.
[00:49:25]  Yeah.
[00:49:25]  Like, I'll give you a tidbit that I've never said before.
[00:49:28]  So when the first time the first song comes out, push-ups, it got leaked on my Reddit, right?
[00:49:36]  And I don't know how they got it.
[00:49:38]  It was a very rough version, but that's when everyone's like, is it AI?
[00:49:43]  The Cap Money Beat when it still had the biggie beat on it?
[00:49:46]  Yes.
[00:49:46]  The original.
[00:49:47]  And I hit Drake and I'm like, I'm like, yo, Crody, like, I did something for you.
[00:49:53]  Crody, are we going?
[00:49:55]  Like, is this it?
[00:49:56]  You know, because everyone's saying, yo, who's going to go first?
[00:49:59]  Him and him or Kendrick?
[00:50:01]  And I think Drake was just getting like, he wanted to get it over with.
[00:50:04]  So he's like, fuck it, I'm going to do it.
[00:50:06]  But I really don't know how it really got leaked.
[00:50:09]  But I asked him about it and he said, he didn't give me a yes or no.
[00:50:12]  He was just like, yo, could you get that taken down?
[00:50:17]  That already told me.
[00:50:18]  I'm like, okay.
[00:50:19]  And I was like, well, I don't control my Reddit.
[00:50:22]  And I'm like, well, I still got to do my job, right?
[00:50:25]  He's not really telling me if it's real or it's not.
[00:50:27]  Fuck it.
[00:50:28]  I'm going to go on stream.
[00:50:29]  Let's at least play around with some of these alternate versions of what this could be.
[00:50:34]  I'm playing the song.
[00:50:35]  You know, people are, they're kind of having this lukewarm response because it's a very unmixed, unfinished song.
[00:50:40]  I look at my phone, see, yo, stop playing that bullshit.
[00:50:43]  Here's the real shit.
[00:50:44]  No, there you go.
[00:50:46]  I put the real shit on.
[00:50:47]  And I don't know how people listen faster than me because I think we're all moving in seconds, but I get it almost damn near first.
[00:50:55]  And I'm playing it.
[00:50:56]  Everyone in my chat, they're spamming, you're on the song.
[00:50:59]  I'm like, oh, yeah, I get to about like the end of the song.
[00:51:04]  I hear the voice note from me, which is from my stream.
[00:51:07]  And I'm like, holy shit.
[00:51:09]  That's crazy.
[00:51:10]  That was your Madison Square Guard.
[00:51:13]  For me, like, you know, like, I remember when every rapper has ever mentioned me.
[00:51:18]  I remember M even mentioned me.
[00:51:19]  I was like, oh shit, Eminem is like, mention me.
[00:51:22]  When Drake used that clip, I was like, I'm immortalized.
[00:51:26]  That's it.
[00:51:28]  That's it.
[00:51:30]  I remember back to back, Charlotte, like, yo, you're going to make me buy boss with Charlotte.
[00:51:36]  I was just like, one day, one day.
[00:51:39]  That's why I thought the bigger cosine was 616 in LA.
[00:51:42]  When they identify you as the ops, that's like.
[00:51:45]  No, no.
[00:51:45]  When both of them, when they both mentioned me, the 616 in LA thing, which, okay, so now, you know, this whole thing is happening.
[00:51:54]  Drake drops.
[00:51:56]  And of course, I'm going to be honest with you, I really didn't think Kendrick was going to drop at all.
[00:52:01]  Because like the word was just that, you know, even I've said popularly, I said, he's good at making moments.
[00:52:07]  He's not good at like this.
[00:52:09]  It's like seeing a guy and he's hitting like the speed bag and you're like, yo, this guy's a fighter, but you've never seen him fight.
[00:52:16]  You really don't know.
[00:52:17]  So it's like, let's go off you thinking I'm a great fighter rather than seeing how I move when the pressure is really on.
[00:52:24]  And you really didn't think he was going to drop?
[00:52:26]  He's been calling for this.
[00:52:27]  No, no.
[00:52:27]  Not like I'm dropping back to back.
[00:52:30]  I thought he was going to respond maybe on his album, but in like a little tasteful way.
[00:52:34]  Not like, okay, let's drop song for song.
[00:52:36]  Let's do it now.
[00:52:37]  So I know Drake was ready to do it now.
[00:52:39]  So I start a countdown.
[00:52:40]  I'm like, all right, let's see.
[00:52:41]  And I honestly thought I was going to go to like, yo, this is day 70, not responding.
[00:52:47]  Day 17th came, he dropped euphoria.
[00:52:49]  I'm like fucking shocked.
[00:52:51]  I'm like, what the fuck is going on?
[00:52:52]  They're dropping songs back to back.
[00:52:54]  And then I also started realizing something very unique.
[00:52:58]  My stream is almost the place where this, the biggest, if you ask me, the biggest beef in hip-hop history.
[00:53:08]  Yeah.
[00:53:09]  And musically, right?
[00:53:10]  Because obviously, you know, we don't big in podcasting.
[00:53:13]  Those had really serious dire ramifications.
[00:53:16]  But just musically, this is the most songs you've ever got.
[00:53:19]  Hip-hop is bigger than it was 25 years ago.
[00:53:21]  The consumption is crazier.
[00:53:22]  Yeah.
[00:53:23]  Right.
[00:53:24]  And I'm watching this and I'm like, this is all playing out where my stream is the town square.
[00:53:32]  You're the epicenter of it all.
[00:53:33]  Yeah.
[00:53:34]  I'm the radio station.
[00:53:35]  I'm not only the media, but I'm like the reflection and where the fans are coming to to consume this for the first time.
[00:53:44]  And I'm the premiere.
[00:53:45]  You know, I know that push-ups drop.
[00:53:49]  Next day, actually, push-ups drops.
[00:53:54]  The official, so I'm on a 10 hour, actually might have been 12 hours live stream.
[00:53:59]  I'm playing the leak version.
[00:54:00]  Yeah, two hours later, I get the real version.
[00:54:03]  So I'm like, fuck it.
[00:54:04]  We got the real version now.
[00:54:05]  And there's an extra beat at the end.
[00:54:07]  I'm playing that shit.
[00:54:09]  I'm like, okay, this is dope.
[00:54:11]  Two and a half hours later, which by the way, it shows how long I stream for.
[00:54:14]  Two and a half hours later, Rick Ross's man hits me.
[00:54:17]  And I'm thinking he just wants to call into the stream.
[00:54:19]  Shout out to my man Sam Sneaks.
[00:54:21]  He's yo, act, hit me.
[00:54:22]  It's important.
[00:54:23]  It's urgent.
[00:54:23]  I'm like, okay, you probably just want to get on.
[00:54:25]  I just want to ask him, like, why does Rick Ross not like Drake?
[00:54:28]  Did Drake like Steel's wings?
[00:54:29]  I was like, what's going on?
[00:54:31]  Yo, he calls into the stream.
[00:54:33]  He's like, just check your phone.
[00:54:34]  Ross goes into the studio, makes a diss song in three hours.
[00:54:38]  They sent, I don't know how quick they did everything.
[00:54:41]  They sent it to me while I'm still on stream.
[00:54:43]  They're like, premiere that.
[00:54:44]  That happens.
[00:54:46]  Also, simultaneously, the RB, like, listen, I blame all this on Cat Williams.
[00:54:51]  You know what I mean?
[00:54:51]  Ever since he said that.
[00:54:52]  Yeah, truly.
[00:54:53]  Truly, I was a catalyst for it.
[00:54:55]  Yeah.
[00:54:55]  Yeah.
[00:54:56]  Because you saw it get, I really think you saw it could get rewarded.
[00:54:59]  Yes.
[00:55:00]  Cat has like 60 million views or whatever on that episode.
[00:55:03]  We all want to see his new special.
[00:55:04]  That came out, I think, Saturday.
[00:55:06]  It kind of revived Kat in a way.
[00:55:07]  So I think a lot of people like me who love being haters were like, oh, you could get rewarded for this.
[00:55:14]  Whereas for 20 years before that, it was like, hey, if you got negative shit to say, everybody's going to look at you crazy.
[00:55:18]  Just fall back.
[00:55:19]  But I feel like if it's substantiated and you got it and it's logically sound, people will reward it.
[00:55:23]  And I think 2024 has been like that for that reason.
[00:55:26]  And I'm in this moment of realizing this shift that's happened.
[00:55:29]  I'm like, did Ross really just send me?
[00:55:32]  Like, I know some people joke about the DJ on my name.
[00:55:36]  They'd be like, yo, you're just academics, bro.
[00:55:38]  You haven't DJ'd in a while, which, to be fair, I haven't DJ'd in a long time.
[00:55:41]  I used to do back in college.
[00:55:42]  But, like, that's what the quintessential role of a DJ is to premiere record.
[00:55:47]  So, I get that from Ross, and I'm like, oh shit.
[00:55:50]  And I'm like, all right, I'm kind of going through the moments here.
[00:55:53]  Another song drops, and Quavo and Chris Brown, they're beefing too.
[00:55:58]  I almost call that an RB beef, but it's not because Chris Brown goes crazy.
[00:56:05]  By the way, it seems like everybody's fighting on girls, right?
[00:56:07]  Yeah.
[00:56:07]  Yeah.
[00:56:08]  They go crazy.
[00:56:09]  Quavo calls me the next morning.
[00:56:12]  Instantly, I'm thinking because I've had a conversation with Query before.
[00:56:15]  And I'm thinking he's mad at me for something I said on the stream.
[00:56:18]  Because I get pretty heated and passionate.
[00:56:20]  And sometimes I say some shit.
[00:56:22]  And I do try to get my, I'm not Schultz or anything or a cost or anything or Mark, but I try to get my little jokes off.
[00:56:27]  You're very funny.
[00:56:28]  Very funny.
[00:56:29]  I get the call.
[00:56:31]  Quavo says, Yo, Ak.
[00:56:34]  I, yo, he's like, yo, you hyped up that Chris Brown song so crazy.
[00:56:39]  He said, why are you doing me like that?
[00:56:40]  I'm like, I'm just reacting to music.
[00:56:42]  Like, new music is dropping.
[00:56:43]  Yeah, yeah.
[00:56:43]  Yo, he's like, you know, I was going to come back, right?
[00:56:46]  I said, word?
[00:56:47]  I said, good.
[00:56:48]  He's like, yo, I got it, but I only want you to drop it.
[00:56:51]  Fire.
[00:56:53]  I'm like, let's do it.
[00:56:55]  Let's do it.
[00:56:56]  So, pretty much ever since then.
[00:56:58]  And then every time after that, while I was on stream, Kendrick, and I have no communication with the team.
[00:57:05]  Kendrick drops only when I'm on stream.
[00:57:08]  He hasn't done a non-stream drop since you 40.
[00:57:11]  Interesting.
[00:57:12]  So they know.
[00:57:12]  He's dropped five songs.
[00:57:14]  So every 12 hours a day.

=== Elon Musk Cybertruck Stream Drop (03:48) ===

[00:57:16]  You're on stream a lot.
[00:57:20]  You're never not on stream.
[00:57:21]  He's going to drop.
[00:57:23]  You were on stream at 9:15 in the morning when he dropped Friday.
[00:57:27]  This Friday.
[00:57:28]  9:16 in LA.
[00:57:29]  That's 9:16 LA.
[00:57:30]  That means.
[00:57:31]  Yes.
[00:57:31]  God damn.
[00:57:32]  What were you doing?
[00:57:33]  No, no, I'll tell you why.
[00:57:34]  I'll tell you why I was on stream.
[00:57:35]  So the night before I'm on stream, and I ain't gonna lie, I was blissed.
[00:57:42]  Like, I was drunk.
[00:57:43]  Like, I got off stream early.
[00:57:44]  Usually I do six hours.
[00:57:45]  It's about like two hours and 45 minutes.
[00:57:48]  He said, I gotta go.
[00:57:49]  Yo, I start looking up because you know me.
[00:57:51]  Like on my streams, like we like, we do everything live.
[00:57:54]  So we're Googling, we're doing things, we're getting lyrics, we're like trying to connect dots.
[00:57:58]  And I remember I had like a cup of like tequila and I was mixing with orange juice.
[00:58:04]  And sometimes I'll be turned up to music before while drinking.
[00:58:07]  I don't know what happened.
[00:58:08]  I might have drunk myself.
[00:58:09]  I might have did it myself, my brother.
[00:58:11]  You get what I'm saying?
[00:58:12]  And what happened was like, I started looking up at the screen, and the words were just, it was like I was dyslexic.
[00:58:20]  And usually when that happens, it's like, I'm clear.
[00:58:24]  Yeah, I'm clear-boy enough to know.
[00:58:27]  Hey, when you're talking, you have to think to talk.
[00:58:30]  And you usually talk for 10 hours without thinking.
[00:58:33]  And I'm hearing words getting kind of mingled.
[00:58:38]  And I'm like, I got to get off of here because the audience might not know the instant drop off.
[00:58:43]  But cerebrally, like, I'm dumb.
[00:58:47]  It's only going to get worse.
[00:58:48]  It's only going to get worse.
[00:58:50]  And I think I just like cut the stream off.
[00:58:52]  And I was like, I lost power.
[00:58:55]  I didn't want to tell them.
[00:58:56]  But you did.
[00:58:56]  Your brain damn.
[00:58:58]  So I'm feel so guilty because at this point, they're used to the six hours.
[00:59:01]  They're like, yo, what the fuck was that?
[00:59:02]  Three hours?
[00:59:03]  You're a bitch?
[00:59:04]  Yeah.
[00:59:04]  So I'm like, all right, man.
[00:59:06]  Let me just get sober.
[00:59:07]  I started speculating why he just cut the stream.
[00:59:12]  You're telling me that Drake is, yo, Drake must have blah, blah, blah.
[00:59:15]  Like, no.
[00:59:17]  So I'm like, because really, I was about to break down Drake's lyrics.
[00:59:19]  I'm like, you know what?
[00:59:21]  I wake up.
[00:59:22]  First thing I do, go feed my dogs, whatever, whatever.
[00:59:24]  I'm like, yo, I'm on stream, early stream.
[00:59:26]  Soon as I get on stream, I'm about to break down Drake's lyrics.
[00:59:29]  And I have about like, it's almost like 100,000 people watching.
[00:59:34]  Whoa.
[00:59:34]  Yeah.
[00:59:35]  In the morning.
[00:59:36]  And I'm like getting to it.
[00:59:38]  Like, I'm in like the first verse.
[00:59:39]  And everyone's like, yo, Kendra dropped.
[00:59:41]  I'm like, I'm looking at the comments.
[00:59:42]  I'm like, you guys are fucking trolls.
[00:59:44]  Wait, what are you streaming on?
[00:59:45]  I'm streaming on multiple platforms.
[00:59:47]  Twitter is Twitter.
[00:59:48]  So I stream on two YouTube platforms.
[00:59:51]  It's a simultaneous stream.
[00:59:53]  Yes.
[00:59:53]  You see that.
[00:59:54]  So if you're on Twitch, we're about to start streaming on TikTok too.
[00:59:57]  So for big moments, I get on X as well.
[01:00:01]  Yeah.
[01:00:01]  I don't, because I don't know the monetization strategy yet fully for X, but, you know.
[01:00:06]  It's more about eyeballs at this point.
[01:00:07]  Like, let's create.
[01:00:08]  You can have one single stream that disseminates to all these different platforms.
[01:00:12]  Yeah, just on YouTube, we almost, within two channels, I'll have one with like 80,000 and then the other with 30,000.
[01:00:19]  Rumble will have about like 35 or 20.
[01:00:21]  Dude, that one crazy.
[01:00:22]  And then XX had like an 800,000.
[01:00:25]  Yeah, yeah.
[01:00:25]  And then the reach on X is like...
[01:00:28]  I don't like, you know, I have some theories about like my Twitter is like, it's like, yeah, steroids right now.
[01:00:33]  Yeah, Elon Guess.
[01:00:34]  Yeah, like shit.
[01:00:35]  Elon responded to, Elon responded to like the last stream was like, yo, this is what we're tapped into.
[01:00:43]  Like he literally, I go live, it sends out a tweet when you go live on X, and he goes in the comments and says, this is what everyone cares about right now.
[01:00:52]  Wow.
[01:00:52]  Elon is African, bro.
[01:00:54]  Shout out to Elon, dude.
[01:00:55]  That's fine.
[01:00:56]  I don't know how he has time for like.
[01:00:58]  Yeah, I know.
[01:00:58]  I haven't even listened to all his diss tracks.
[01:01:00]  How is Elon tapping into it, bro?

=== Pedophile Accusation Video Flex (15:11) ===

[01:01:04]  Go make a call.
[01:01:05]  I know.
[01:01:06]  What the fuck are you listening to?
[01:01:08]  I know.
[01:01:08]  I'm trying to get to my cyber truck today.
[01:01:10]  I see my very first cyber truck today.
[01:01:12]  I've never seen one of them shit.
[01:01:13]  It's kind of cool.
[01:01:13]  Yeah, they look cool.
[01:01:15]  But yeah, to see that level, I was like, this is like such a commercially viable and accessible rap beef, but it's benefiting so many people.
[01:01:28]  All right, let's talk about.
[01:01:29]  I want to know your thoughts on who is up right now and all this other stuff.
[01:01:34]  But first of all, the way that the media has played a part in this rap beef is really interesting to me because it's rappers openly using media to promote the songs.
[01:01:51]  Whereas back in the day, I don't know if it's like, I don't know if there's a conversation where this person's hitting up DJ Clue and saying, yo, can you play this at this time?
[01:02:01]  And I don't know if it was as open.
[01:02:03]  This is open.
[01:02:04]  I'm sure it was.
[01:02:05]  It's always been like this.
[01:02:06]  Okay, so break that down.
[01:02:08]  If we go back in time, you know, Charlemagne getting mentioned is literally because Charlemagne was on a rival station going and Flex was premiering this songs to Drake.
[01:02:21]  So how do you kind of take a shot at Flex?
[01:02:25]  This is why he's like, yo, I'm going to tell Clue drop a bomb on him.
[01:02:29]  That's Flex's thing.
[01:02:31]  Clue's on the other radio station.
[01:02:33]  So it's like trying to take the power and the influence because everyone used to be tuned to that box, which was the radio and listen to Flex.
[01:02:41]  Like when like there's a notorious moment in hip-hop when Flex premieres Otis, which is a song by Kanye Jay-Z, and he played like 89 times.
[01:02:51]  But that made the record.
[01:02:52]  Him premiering I Get Money made that record.
[01:02:55]  That was the influence that, and that's my argument is that media has always had this.
[01:02:59]  These artists know that it's not necessarily about premiering the song because these artists now have the platform and these songs are going to do what they're going to do.
[01:03:07]  It's like, how do you get to kind of influence the narrative?
[01:03:11]  I've always told people way back even from the 6'9 era.
[01:03:16]  I said, listen, I tell every artist this, I remember having this conversation with Cardi B, you can't fight media.
[01:03:21]  You should, as an artist, you need to.
[01:03:23]  Befriend them.
[01:03:23]  Yeah, utilize them.
[01:03:25]  You need to, again, you know, notoriously, I forgot the famous quote, but it's like, if one story that could be completely career-ending, if you have a little bit of influence or relationship with that media outlet, it just seems a mistake rather than this is like this maniacal, intentional thing.
[01:03:47]  Yeah, because the media is so prolific at like creating narratives and storylines and then pushing that information out on the people, whereas like the rapper can do it and they can address it, but the media is just non-stop and that other people are picking up what you're saying and their blog accounts picking up what other blog accounts have picked up from what you're saying.
[01:04:08]  And if there is a cohesive effort, for example, like you, Graham Wizard, Keep Six Solid, like if you guys are all Team Drake and pushing out same information, and that's what my feed is, I'm like, well, they got to be right.
[01:04:21]  All these different things.
[01:04:22]  Now, here's my question, though.
[01:04:24]  Once, well, let me just ask it.
[01:04:27]  Once everybody knows that you guys are Team Drake, does that make us look at information that is critical of the opposition differently?
[01:04:38]  For example, if I see a Fox News headline talking about some liberal politician, I immediately go, well, of course they're going to trash that person.
[01:04:47]  So I might need to look into this story to see if there's truth there.
[01:04:51]  Do you understand?
[01:04:53]  Does it discredit the criticism of the other side once we know that you guys have an allegiance?
[01:04:59]  It does once that doesn't align with what the public thinks.
[01:05:05]  Expanding that.
[01:05:06]  Like, for example, I came out and I said, hey, listen, if, you know, I don't think, by the way, this back and forth is done, but if I had to score it in this cross section of time, I got Kendrick slightly up.
[01:05:19]  So now the audience goes, okay, he's being honest.
[01:05:21]  Yeah, right?
[01:05:23]  If I'm just saying, Drake, knocked him out, then everybody goes, oh, he's biased.
[01:05:28]  Oh, this is a lie.
[01:05:28]  You get what I mean?
[01:05:29]  So you feel in order to maintain your credibility with the audience, you have to review things as they are, even though you're openly a fan of.
[01:05:42]  It's almost like there's certain people for like with Barstool, for example, they might be a big fan of the Patriots or a big fan of the Celtics, but if they're playing like shit, they have to acknowledge that they're not playing up to the standard or else the audience starts to go, oh, you just say they're good no matter what, I can't trust you.
[01:06:02]  100%.
[01:06:02]  Got it.
[01:06:03]  So you still feel a need to go, this is where I see it.
[01:06:06]  100%.
[01:06:07]  Like, so I'm, you know, what we do, even though, like, on my stream, like, we're breaking down these, you know, attacks at each other, these allegations.
[01:06:16]  And, you know, it would be very convenient to be like, well, we'll just keep breaking down the things that would make this person look whatever type of way.
[01:06:24]  You feel responsible for you.
[01:06:25]  No, you have to, right?
[01:06:26]  So like, even though he's saying certain things about Drake, it's like, you got to look into them, right?
[01:06:31]  You have to, like, everything is, and that's the thing about a stream.
[01:06:34]  They can tell when you're hiding something, right?
[01:06:36]  Like, hey, there's a popular video that's recapping maybe like some grooming allegations by Drake.
[01:06:41]  If you don't go watch that and you're watching everything for $10, of course.
[01:06:46]  And like, yo, you know, so again, you know, when you think about this, honestly, I think the grooming thing is bullshit.
[01:06:53]  And I think it's really, and again, I don't know enough about it, but I find it very hard to believe that somebody that is that famous would be open about doing that if those were his intentions.
[01:07:04]  Hey, let me tell you this.
[01:07:05]  I personally.
[01:07:07]  And also, like, that label, even the accusation, like think about what the accusation is, right?
[01:07:12]  If somebody goes, yo, you're a pedophile, even if someone accused, I don't even want to say Alex, like even if someone accused Miles, Even if someone accused Miles of being a pedophile, knowing that he was accused, you would never let him babysit your kid, even though you know he's innocent.
[01:07:30]  Just the fact that there was an accusation, you'd be like, I don't even.
[01:07:36]  Like, it's such a fucking, what is a scarlet letter, even the accusation.
[01:07:41]  I think this is going to alter Drake Square for the rest of his life.
[01:07:44]  I think he's going to have to move different and be cognizant.
[01:07:48]  You know, the other day he was seen with Lotto's little sister.
[01:07:53]  She was 21, but still, some people are like, why are you with young girls?
[01:07:59]  Right.
[01:08:00]  And I think he's going to always take that into accountability.
[01:08:03]  Now, I think, you know, on either this album, maybe it was Certified Loverboy, like he was rapping about, like, yo, like, she was 21, or like, he's name dropping or age dropping the girls.
[01:08:13]  And they're like, cool song.
[01:08:16]  And if we remove you from all the lyrics, but if we're thinking, you know, like he has a song called like TSU.
[01:08:22]  And it's like, yo, why is a 37-year-old guy rapping about a college campus?
[01:08:26]  Like, you know what I mean?
[01:08:27]  You seen the video of the girl being like, Drake hit me up.
[01:08:31]  He saw me at, he was a fan of high school, girls, basketball, and then he hit me in my, and it's like, I'm going to be honest.
[01:08:37]  Why are you a fan of any women's basketball?
[01:08:38]  Okay, I'm going to be honest with you.
[01:08:39]  This is just me personally.
[01:08:42]  This is me personally.
[01:08:43]  They can't even lay up with their offhand probably.
[01:08:46]  I've never met Drake personally.
[01:08:48]  I can't tell what he's into and what he's not into.
[01:08:50]  I can only tell what I've seen publicly, right?
[01:08:53]  And I've seen the girls that he's allegedly romantically involved with.
[01:08:58]  That's a different conversation than if we were going down this like, because the thing is, if you accuse somebody of being a pedophile, you're accusing them of like in pre-pubescent teens, right?
[01:09:07]  Like if Drake is just.
[01:09:08]  I think it could be post-pubescent teens, under 18.
[01:09:11]  All right.
[01:09:11]  Let me ask.
[01:09:12]  Do you think you don't divide him up?
[01:09:16]  No, no, no.
[01:09:17]  That's hated when people do that.
[01:09:18]  Technically, 13 or whatever.
[01:09:20]  No, I don't think there's allegations.
[01:09:23]  What the fuck is going on?
[01:09:24]  I don't think there's any allegations.
[01:09:25]  I know.
[01:09:26]  Now you're looking biased.
[01:09:29]  A pedophile is from the age 3 to 11.
[01:09:31]  No, no, no.
[01:09:32]  That's not regulation.
[01:09:33]  When you say teenage, what is going on?
[01:09:37]  No, no, I guess what I'm saying is that.
[01:09:38]  I think it's bullshit.
[01:09:39]  I'll be honest.
[01:09:40]  We only see Drake, right?
[01:09:42]  We only see Drake with women who are legal, right?
[01:09:47]  Now, say like Leonardo Capri, right?
[01:09:50]  People are like, yo, he only dates girl from like 20 to 25.
[01:09:54]  Yeah.
[01:09:54]  And he's like 50.
[01:09:56]  Is that just weird?
[01:09:57]  Is that creepy?
[01:09:59]  Or is that like.
[01:10:01]  Here's an important distinction.
[01:10:02]  It's legal.
[01:10:03]  Well, no, no, but that's what I'm saying.
[01:10:04]  I think that's kind of the same thing with Drake.
[01:10:07]  Like, we've never heard that Drake dated.
[01:10:09]  Exactly.
[01:10:09]  That's why it's bullshit.
[01:10:10]  I mean, it's a great assault.
[01:10:12]  Like, if you really want to just make someone radioactive and assassinate their character, it's a great thing to say.
[01:10:17]  Because the second you go, I'm not a pedophile, people are like, I don't know now.
[01:10:22]  You don't even want to defend yourself in the accusation.
[01:10:24]  No, you're right.
[01:10:25]  But this idea that like a guy who's 37 or maybe can't fuck a 20-year-old girl, get the fuck out of here.
[01:10:31]  Like at some point, they're women.
[01:10:34]  No, but at 20 years old, they go to war.
[01:10:37]  Let's say 20 when the week.
[01:10:38]  Bro, bro, bro, at 18 or 19, they're going to war.
[01:10:44]  They're driving a drone.
[01:10:45]  Yeah, they got OnlyFans.
[01:10:46]  They got OnlyFans.
[01:10:47]  Like, nope, no, that's a dead ass.
[01:10:50]  It's like all these people that are like, oh my God, how'd you, how dare you have sex with a 21-year-old girl?
[01:10:54]  Who do you think you're jerking off to, weirdo?
[01:10:57]  When you go watch porno, you're not going, well, is this girl 25 years old?
[01:11:00]  Every one of them bitches is fucking 19 or 20 years old.
[01:11:02]  No, I don't even want any point for that.
[01:11:05]  Yo, in reality, so I'm with you.
[01:11:07]  I'm with you, right?
[01:11:07]  And that's why.
[01:11:09]  What I'm saying is stop what they're trying to do is move the goalpost.
[01:11:12]  You know what's weird?
[01:11:13]  Underage girls, that's weird.
[01:11:14]  You should be in prison.
[01:11:15]  That's not even like joke around about shit.
[01:11:17]  That's like, if that is even like, that is jail.
[01:11:21]  Like, take the nuts away.
[01:11:22]  And that's what I'm saying.
[01:11:22]  But 20-year-old girls?
[01:11:24]  What are we talking about here?
[01:11:25]  Like, when Leonardo Caprio is banging these 20-year-old girls, it's like, he's not banging 20-year-old girls.
[01:11:30]  He's banging supermodels that happen to be 20.
[01:11:35]  His first thing is super model when they're 20.
[01:11:39]  Do you think it's a little weird?
[01:11:40]  Because I know you saw the video about the grooming stuff.
[01:11:42]  Like, of course, when you just compile every single story and put it back to back to back, it's going to...
[01:11:47]  That's not going to make anybody.
[01:11:48]  They did this shit with the guy who directed Guardians of the Galaxy.
[01:11:51]  And this is why this shit, this is why I should have fucked up.
[01:11:53]  You remember the guy?
[01:11:54]  Was that his name?
[01:11:55]  What's the director's name, Al?
[01:11:57]  Junn.
[01:11:57]  Yeah, yeah.
[01:11:58]  James Gunn.
[01:11:59]  And it got him kicked out of fucking Marvel.
[01:12:01]  And what they basically did, this is during like cancel culture.
[01:12:03]  He had a bunch of like pedophile jokes.
[01:12:07]  And he was like making these like dark, twisted jokes about like something about like having sex with kids or something like that.
[01:12:13]  But they're like obviously fucking jokes.
[01:12:15]  And what someone did is they collected all of them from different years in his life and put them on one page.
[01:12:20]  And when you have 10 different things from different years in your life, they're on one page, you're like, oh, that motherfucker is a creep.
[01:12:26]  And they fired his ass.
[01:12:27]  Yeah.
[01:12:27]  So now if you're in a battle with somebody and you can compile all these 10 different things and put it in a battle.
[01:12:33]  So there's two things going on.
[01:12:34]  One is, is it an effective strategy?
[01:12:36]  Incredibly effective.
[01:12:38]  The other thing is, is it indicative of that person having a problem?
[01:12:42]  Which I'm saying is no.
[01:12:44]  I think it's incredibly effective from Kendrick, but does it make that person a pedophile?
[01:12:49]  No.
[01:12:49]  Is James Gunn a pedophile?
[01:12:50]  No.
[01:12:51]  That's why he's now working.
[01:12:52]  He fucking runs DC and they actually brought him back to do The Last Guardians.
[01:12:56]  You know what's a little odd?
[01:12:58]  Like a lot of these guys who used to be frequent collaborators and used to party with them, they're kind of, they're either same, like even like Rick Ross.
[01:13:05]  I know they're not seen on eye right now, but it's like, if me and you used to party and have a bunch of girls around us, if later on I'm like, you like kids, that makes me look kind of crazy too.
[01:13:16]  So exactly.
[01:13:16]  It's like, oh, so you was cool with him when everything was going on.
[01:13:19]  It's the same shit with Diddy.
[01:13:20]  It's like.
[01:13:21]  No, no, no.
[01:13:21]  We can't just throw Diddy and Drake in the same podcast.
[01:13:27]  I seen a video today.
[01:13:29]  I was more saying people are quiet about Diddy, but they're loud about Drake.
[01:13:31]  No, no, no.
[01:13:32]  But it's like, y'all been to Diddy parties.
[01:13:33]  No, now I don't know if you're a dad.
[01:13:34]  I seen a video today that fucked me up a little bit.
[01:13:36]  What was it?
[01:13:37]  Just because it now gets me to think, is there something I don't know?
[01:13:43]  About whom?
[01:13:44]  Well, not necessarily Drake, but like...
[01:13:46]  So he's Yip here.
[01:13:49]  Shane.
[01:13:50]  Shane Gillis.
[01:13:51]  Yes, he has a podcast.
[01:13:52]  Hilarious.
[01:13:52]  Yes.
[01:13:54]  There's a clip.
[01:13:55]  New show out on Netflix, Tires.
[01:13:56]  Go watch it.
[01:13:57]  Yeah, the Premieres.
[01:13:58]  There's a 2019, I guess he does a podcast.
[01:14:01]  2019, him and his guy, who's his co-host, I guess, are on the podcast and he randomly come out.
[01:14:07]  You know, Aaron Eric dug it up.
[01:14:08]  Randomly in 2019, he comes out.
[01:14:10]  They're talking about Epstein then R. Kelly.
[01:14:13]  And he says, he said, I'm going to just say this right now.
[01:14:15]  In five years, they're getting drinked.
[01:14:18]  And like, he kind of, like, it's not even like a joke where he's like, ah, like, he starts to kind of, he's like, yo, that's the word out about this guy.
[01:14:26]  And that, that made me a little bit uneasy because I was like.
[01:14:29]  Because the two white guys from rural Pennsylvania.
[01:14:32]  I was just like about hip-hop that you don't know.
[01:14:34]  No, no, no.
[01:14:35]  This is the thing about narratives.
[01:14:36]  It's like, you know how far you got to grasp at straws?
[01:14:39]  Well, that forcing people down.
[01:14:42]  There are two whitest human beings on the planet to tell you something about a hip-hop star that you speak to regularly.
[01:14:48]  Yeah, but I don't know these people's personal lives.
[01:14:50]  I really wouldn't know.
[01:14:51]  I really wouldn't know what they're into sexually.
[01:14:53]  I wouldn't know.
[01:14:54]  You know, I don't.
[01:14:55]  This is hilarious.
[01:14:56]  Anytime white people talk about hip-hop, it's stay out of our culture.
[01:14:59]  The second they start calling Drake a pedophile, like, yo, they might be on it.
[01:15:03]  They might know some shit we don't know, yo.
[01:15:06]  I'm not, I definitely am not saying I believe.
[01:15:08]  I think you team OVO, bro.
[01:15:09]  No, I am Team OVO.
[01:15:10]  I mean, Team XO.
[01:15:11]  So many motherfucking African episodes.
[01:15:14]  I think you team XO.
[01:15:15]  TDO, TDE.
[01:15:17]  Me personally, me personally.
[01:15:19]  No, XO, too.
[01:15:20]  Yeah, me personally, and I think this is probably the dangers of kind of like probably navigating the game like how Drake has done to get to the top, is that I don't think Drake necessarily is following a, to your point, a high school female basketball player for some weird shit.
[01:15:39]  I don't.
[01:15:40]  What I do think is that Drake knows how to stay next to the Heat.
[01:15:45]  I guarantee he follows speed, who's a 16.
[01:15:48]  He's probably 18 now.
[01:15:49]  But when we start popping off, he's a 16-year-old streamer.
[01:15:52]  Of course.
[01:15:53]  He's probably DMing him stuff.
[01:15:54]  Like, you got to realize, like, Drake knows, Drake realizes his fan also requires him to be current, staying next to other people who are affecting culture in that generation.
[01:16:08]  And the only thing that, again, we've never seen a sexual message.
[01:16:12]  Like, it's one thing he's like, yo, yo, send me a nude.

=== Drake Following Speed DoorDash Home (03:44) ===

[01:16:15]  Like, you know what I mean?
[01:16:18]  Like, if that's what the, um, if the interactions were that, I'd be like, okay, that's crazy.
[01:16:24]  But just because he's, yeah, he's going to follow, if a child star gets 30 million followers right now, he's going to follow that person.
[01:16:30]  Yo, you're great.
[01:16:31]  Yo, you're great.
[01:16:32]  Oh, come to one of my shows.
[01:16:33]  Like, I'm pretty sure he's not like, yo, come to the after party and then the Diddy party.
[01:16:36]  We're about to do something.
[01:16:37]  But the fact that we're having this discussion is why it's so effective.
[01:16:41]  Has anyone accused him?
[01:16:42]  Has anyone come out and been like, never?
[01:16:43]  No.
[01:16:43]  All the women have actually came out to say, yo, when I took a picture with him, like, nothing happened.
[01:16:49]  That was the only interaction.
[01:16:50]  Nothing else ever happened.
[01:16:52]  He's too shrewd.
[01:16:53]  Like, I can't, someone who has navigated the game this well to be where he is.
[01:16:57]  I can't imagine him just fucking up in the fucking DMs with something like this.
[01:17:01]  Like, get out of here.
[01:17:02]  Now, him having a daughter on the side, if you already got one, it's possible to have another.
[01:17:08]  Like, to me, even if it's bullshit, it's more believable than this other thing.
[01:17:13]  And by the way, I feel what's happening to Drake is kind of the inevitability of like that quote-unquote.
[01:17:21]  And this is why it's like so, it's so opposite of what's going on with Kendrick.
[01:17:26]  It's like the Fresh and Fish Fit thing, where it's like, yo, I'm just fucking a bunch of chicks.
[01:17:29]  Like, if Drake still isn't dating another chick, a new chick every two weeks, this doesn't happen, right?
[01:17:35]  Like, if Drake had settled down and like literally isn't doing the things, which by the way, helped furthers his career.
[01:17:40]  I'm always going to be with a new hot chick.
[01:17:42]  I'm courtside every game.
[01:17:44]  I'm popping out like the biggest artist should.
[01:17:47]  He probably doesn't have these type of things.
[01:17:49]  This is why the battle with him and Kendrick's a little bit unfair, right?
[01:17:51]  Kendrick's a really boring guy that stays home with his wife.

[01:20:13]  These guys are fucking nerds, man.

[01:20:30]  Shouts to Big Dick Cubes.
[01:20:32]  Let's get back to the show.
[01:20:34]  Only miscalculation in this entire thing for me, for Drake, was to actually give Kendrick a whole song with all due respect to the musical genius and talent that is Kendrick.
[01:20:46]  And again, I'm a casual.
[01:20:48]  No one gives a fuck about him.
[01:20:52]  Meaning, I don't know his hobbies.
[01:20:54]  I don't know his interests.
[01:20:56]  I don't know if he plays hockey with his friends.
[01:20:59]  I don't know if he's in a poker tournament.
[01:21:02]  I don't know anything about Kendrick.
[01:21:04]  Coming from somebody who just did a roast, the most effective way to roast people, like I didn't talk about the comedians almost at all because nobody knows them compared to the athletes who are there.
[01:21:16]  I'm just shooting at the athletes and the famous people there.
[01:21:19]  I wish I knew Kim was there because she's the most famous person in the room.
[01:21:23]  That joke's gonna go crazy.
[01:21:25]  Everybody knows every detail about Drake.
[01:21:27]  We know where he vacations.
[01:21:28]  We know what his best friends are.
[01:21:29]  We know if he's had plastic fucking surgery.
[01:21:31]  We know every single thing.
[01:21:33]  That's what Act just said because Drake be outside.
[01:21:34]  Kendrick's inside.
[01:21:35]  It's not that people don't care.
[01:21:36]  It's just that he doesn't give people anything to go off of.
[01:21:40]  He's a private person.
[01:21:41]  Regardless.
[01:21:43]  My whole point was that Drake's lifestyle has created this.
[01:21:46]  My point, no one is at this point.
[01:21:49]  Like Rihanna disappears.
[01:21:50]  Sure, sure.
[01:21:51]  Jay-Z at this point was like so secluded.
[01:21:53]  But Drake is still living like the 25-year-old.
[01:21:57]  I just got favorite.
[01:21:57]  Hold on, hold on, hold on.
[01:21:58]  The separation that I would say is Kendrick is known for his music and only his music.
[01:22:06]  Drake is known for the personality and celebrity that is Drake.
[01:22:11]  Yes.
[01:22:12]  And his music.
[01:22:14]  And the personality and celebrity that is Drake allows you to take so many more shots in this battle.
[01:22:21]  There's so much more information that's out there.
[01:22:24]  Drake got to explain to us shit about Kendrick that he's making fun of.
[01:22:29]  Yeah.
[01:22:29]  Like, I don't like, like, I kind of lost interest in the battle because I don't know enough about Kendrick.
[01:22:34]  Like, I'm like, I think he's very talented.
[01:22:37]  Like, wait, they're not living together.
[01:22:39]  Where do they even live?
[01:22:39]  He has a wife.
[01:22:40]  I don't know.
[01:22:40]  He has a kid.
[01:22:41]  What is going on?
[01:22:43]  I've never seen it.
[01:22:44]  Who's they free?
[01:22:45]  I never know the people that you're making fun of him for.
[01:22:50]  You got to give me a Wikipedia of this guy before you battle him.
[01:22:54]  Well, here's the thing, too, though.
[01:22:57]  I argue.
[01:22:58]  So if we're looking at levels of popularity, I would have Kendrick in music.
[01:23:02]  They're close.
[01:23:03]  Get out of here.
[01:23:03]  No, music.
[01:23:05]  Music-wise, you're too close.
[01:23:06]  You're too close.
[01:23:07]  That's his point.
[01:23:08]  He's saying in music.
[01:23:09]  No, Music, they're close.
[01:23:12]  Just in the world, they're not.
[01:23:14]  saying in terms of music popularity or in the music mobility no in the music world music popular listen if define popularity because well i want to argue that on consumption so if drake drops you think do you think drake and kendrick have been consumed the same amount in close amounts drake's still more popular but kendrick was never that far behind i don't think it's in the same stratosphere I mean, the numbers are there.
[01:23:41]  No, no, no.
[01:23:41]  But the numbers are there.
[01:23:42]  But no, no, no, no.
[01:23:43]  Drake drops way more, so of course he's going to shut down.
[01:23:46]  I don't think Kendrick can do it.
[01:23:47]  I don't know if Drake has done international.
[01:23:50]  Okay, you answer this question.
[01:23:51]  I don't think Kendrick has an international draw like Drake does.
[01:23:54]  I don't even think it's close.
[01:23:55]  Okay, well, you answer this question now.
[01:23:56]  But no, real quick, let's just address that because what you're talking about is popularity, right?
[01:24:00]  No, I would say music.
[01:24:01]  In the music.
[01:24:02]  In music consumption, when Kendrick drops an album and Drake drops an album, if it's 100 people that are going to go check out Drake, 75 to 80 will also check out Kendrick.
[01:24:15]  And that's just the reality of just music.
[01:24:18]  Well, let's get data on this.
[01:24:19]  I'm going to be honest with you.
[01:24:22]  Kendrick Lamar, he is the second most consumed person.
[01:24:26]  We can't act like this is some bum.
[01:24:28]  You know, like Drake is widely more popular.
[01:24:31]  Yeah.
[01:24:31]  And by the way, Drake knew this coming into it.
[01:24:35]  You have more to lose than to gain.
[01:24:37]  So it seemed close.
[01:24:37]  So Kendrick outsold Drake in the last tour, and then Drake's most recent tour outsold Kendrick.
[01:24:43]  So it seems like it's the two of them going back and forth before, right?
[01:24:46]  Drake outsold Kendrick Lamar in just 30 of the 72 shows he did this.
[01:24:51]  Yeah, but then the year before that, Kendrick outsold Drake.
[01:24:53]  So this tour is huge for Drake.
[01:24:54]  So the point is, he's saying Drake is bigger, but it's not a crazy gap, which seems by every metric.
[01:25:01]  Just only within music.
[01:25:03]  This gross to 129 million, and I think Kendrick's was 110 million.
[01:25:08]  So it was relatively close.
[01:25:10]  That's way closer than I thought.
[01:25:11]  When Drake comes to New York, well, shit, he's been on a tour run.
[01:25:16]  Like he did New York venues probably about six, seven times, and Kendrick did about three or four.
[01:25:23]  Right?
[01:25:23]  Again, definitely way more, but...
[01:25:26]  It's twice as much.
[01:25:28]  Well, we're still in the same punching league.
[01:25:31]  You get what I mean?
[01:25:32]  Yeah.
[01:25:32]  Twice as much as not to me.
[01:25:35]  Compared to other acts in hip-hop, yes, you're sizably bigger than me, but I'm still in the same realm.
[01:25:43]  I'm still in that same realm, which matters.
[01:25:47]  Which that's what's going to force Drake to respond, right?
[01:25:50]  Right.
[01:25:51]  Hey, you have literally the number two guy calling you out.
[01:25:54]  Now, I do agree with you to some point where he didn't necessarily have to drop a standalone diss song.
[01:26:01]  He could have just said, hey, I'm going to wait.
[01:26:03]  Just like how you dropped a diss to me on a hit song like that.
[01:26:07]  Next time I'm on a DJ Khaled, so I'm going to diss the shit out of you.
[01:26:10]  Exactly.
[01:26:11]  I don't think that will be.
[01:26:12]  It only benefits him.
[01:26:13]  It only benefits Kendrick.
[01:26:15]  Because Drake, people say Drake took the L with push-up because he didn't respond.
[01:26:20]  But Kendrick made a whole song, a six and a half minutes.
[01:26:23]  No, you don't have to do that.
[01:26:24]  Like that was not that.
[01:26:25]  Like that was a feature.
[01:26:26]  No, no, I know, but then Kendrick dropped.
[01:26:29]  No, Kendrick only dropped after Drake.
[01:26:30]  Oh, you're talking about.
[01:26:31]  Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[01:26:32]  So you don't think Drake should have dropped at all, responded to like that at all?
[01:26:36]  That's not what I'm saying.
[01:26:36]  What I'm saying is he should have done it in a song, not given Kendrick.
[01:26:41]  He should have gone verse verse.
[01:26:42]  He did.
[01:26:42]  He did push-up and he shot it every time.
[01:26:44]  He's saying, oh, it wasn't just the Drake.
[01:26:46]  Yeah, but it's a standalone disc.
[01:26:48]  It's not even.
[01:26:49]  It wasn't even meant to be a single.
[01:26:50]  I think this proved to me that Drake is completely done with being, he's completely done with rap battles.
[01:26:56]  He can't do it anymore.
[01:26:57]  And it's not because of ability, but because of where he is.
[01:27:01]  You see, you know, what's happening now, and I was talking about even the numbers, Kendrick Lamar's numbers, like, he's about to go number one next week with the new song he just dropped to Drake.
[01:27:09]  He's going number one in the country.
[01:27:11]  And you're going to give this guy his first number one of his, his number one solo record of his whole career.
[01:27:17]  Yeah.
[01:27:18]  Because you engage with him.
[01:27:20]  Two things is happening.
[01:27:21]  Kendrick has never had a number one record.
[01:27:23]  A solo.
[01:27:23]  Solo.
[01:27:24]  He's never had a number one solo record.
[01:27:25]  And you're saying that he's on the same level as Drake?
[01:27:28]  You guys are saying that?
[01:27:29]  He's had number one records.
[01:27:30]  It just hasn't been a solo record.
[01:27:32]  But I'm saying, are you making the argument that someone who's never had a number one solo record is the same, is on the same level in music popularity as Drake?
[01:27:41]  Is that the argument you guys are standing on?
[01:27:44]  Well, Drake has a handful.
[01:27:45]  I just want to know if we're lying.
[01:27:47]  Well, Drake has a handful of people.
[01:27:48]  Are we just going to sit on the couches and lie to you?
[01:27:51]  Hold on.
[01:27:51]  Do we lie for funsies?
[01:27:52]  Or do we just acknowledge the reality?
[01:27:55]  What do we do?
[01:27:56]  Drake has a handful of solo records that became number one, but not as much as you might think.
[01:28:01]  A lot of his are also features or someone else is on the song.
[01:28:05]  We have to be realistic.
[01:28:06]  This is not like, you know, this is not Big Taylor, okay?
[01:28:09]  What I'm saying is it took Drake for Kendrick to get his first number one.
[01:28:14]  By the way, up until Hotline.
[01:28:15]  Think about that.
[01:28:16]  But it wasn't even a feature, but it is.
[01:28:17]  It wasn't Hotline Blake because I think that went number two.
[01:28:20]  Or maybe Drake never had a number one as a lead artist for a while.
[01:28:25]  Like, I remember when he wrote that long-ass paragraph.
[01:28:28]  And at that time, everyone thought not only was he the biggest in the culture, they thought he was one of the biggest in the world.
[01:28:33]  But obviously things change in how...
[01:28:36]  Keep in mind, I'm not talking about the culture.
[01:28:38]  I'm talking about just the world.
[01:28:40]  I think Drake is more accessible.
[01:28:42]  The things that he's rapping about are more accessible internationally than the things Kendrick are rapping about.
[01:28:47]  And because of that, he'll have more success internationally.
[01:28:49]  And then those numbers will just be bigger.
[01:28:51]  Like, if Kendrick is talking about like personal, experiential, cultural trauma that exists in the black community in America, what is some fucking Swedish guy going to listen to that?
[01:29:01]  But you're also using a metric that no one cares about, right?
[01:29:03]  Like, you see, like, when we report sales and like, you know, as media page report sales, we don't care about anything but U.S. sales.
[01:29:11]  There's a global sales, which obviously goes to, it's still money.
[01:29:14]  Like, you're still getting paid from that data.
[01:29:16]  But usually it's what happens in the U.S. kind of goes into the rest of the world.
[01:29:21]  Of course, certain artists don't focus on those markets, right?
[01:29:24]  Drake is huge internationally compared to any of these guys by like a landslide.
[01:29:28]  Same with Taylor Swift.
[01:29:30]  Same with all superstars.
[01:29:31]  But the conversation.
[01:29:33]  You can't name a superstar that's not huge international.
[01:29:35]  But the conversation that Drake wants to affect is the one that happens usually stateside.
[01:29:40]  And that's why he has to compete.
[01:29:42]  What I'm saying is that's the miscalculation, in my opinion.
[01:29:44]  I think that he was yearning for that approval.
[01:29:48]  It's a legacy thing.
[01:29:49]  I think it's insecurity.
[01:29:50]  I think it's like he wanted that validation.
[01:29:53]  No, it's being an MC.
[01:29:55]  Every rapper that's always held that throne of not being the biggest rapper, but being the best rapper has always not only, that's one of the things.
[01:30:07]  It's like, well, I'm going to trivialize a little bit by saying LeBron in a dunk contest.
[01:30:11]  Like people were saying about Kendrick, we've never seen you in a battle.
[01:30:14]  And every guy who was supposed to be the top guy, we've seen him battle tested.
[01:30:17]  Now, Drake has already battle tested.
[01:30:19]  Sure, he lost to Push a T, but we've seen him win many others, right?
[01:30:22]  He could have not, he could have ducked this one, but people also are watching and say, hey, don't tell me you handled Meek Mill when you knew you could body him.
[01:30:32]  Push a T, you didn't finish that one.
[01:30:34]  And the guy we really thought could beat you, it's like the Floyd argument when they thought he was ducking certain people.
[01:30:40]  So, yes, that's where the ego comes in, but the MC comes in as well.
[01:30:45]  Let's go toe-to-toe.
[01:30:46]  Now, if I'm Drake, and I think this goes back to the point I was saying earlier, he no longer could do these because what we've realized in this battle is that I told people that Drake was an underdog, and that was asinine for a lot of people.
[01:30:59]  They're like, yo, he's the most popular rapper.
[01:31:01]  And I'm like, let me say this.
[01:31:03]  There is a group of people that have came together.
[01:31:05]  These are the neutrals that they've came together and they're tired of the king reigning.
[01:31:10]  They came to see a beheading.
[01:31:12]  They've came to see humans do not like it.
[01:31:18]  Let me just get this point out.
[01:31:19]  Humans do oftentimes resent success.
[01:31:21]  It happened with Michael Jordan.
[01:31:23]  We all saw it.
[01:31:23]  I saw it as a Knicks fan.
[01:31:25]  I was like, fuck Michael Jordan.
[01:31:26]  He was beating my team all the time.
[01:31:27]  He's not as good as Magic Johnson.
[01:31:28]  He's not as good as Larry Bird.
[01:31:30]  I wasn't even fucking alive with Magic and Larry playing.
[01:31:32]  I just needed somebody else.
[01:31:33]  People say this about Michael Jackson.
[01:31:35]  They're like, no, Prince.
[01:31:36]  This to me is closest to Michael Jackson and Prince, in my opinion.
[01:31:40]  Prince was incredibly talented, amazing musician, played all the instruments.
[01:31:44]  He is nowhere near Michael Jackson in terms of his success as an artist, but people needed an alternative.
[01:31:51]  This is what happens when Carl Malone won the MVP.
[01:31:55]  It was just exhaustion of Jordan being so great and so amazing.
[01:31:58]  So what you need is you basically have this other person that you turn to.
[01:32:02]  That's not to say Carl wasn't amazing.
[01:32:03]  It's not to say that Prince wasn't.
[01:32:05]  It's not to say that Kendrick is one of the most prolific artists that's ever existed.
[01:32:09]  It's not discrediting them all, but in terms of like where Drake is in the world, people are going to look in other directions because humans naturally, we resent the success.
[01:32:18]  And I think we inflate sometimes other people that are not, maybe we over-inflate some people because of that resentment for the success.
[01:32:27]  Well, that's why I got led to this next point, which I've continually said.
[01:32:32]  I said, listen, the rules aren't the same for both artists.
[01:32:37]  When Kendrick drops like that, like that was a response to a song called First Versus Shooter.
[01:32:43]  He drops like that.
[01:32:45]  Drake has never ducked a battle.
[01:32:47]  He's always been there, right?
[01:32:50]  Everyone's like, it's been like two weeks.
[01:32:52]  Drake didn't say anything.
[01:32:53]  Or one says, he's scared.
[01:32:55]  This is what I'm saying, changing the rules.
[01:32:57]  Okay, Drake drops.
[01:32:58]  It's two weeks now.
[01:32:59]  We're waiting for Kendrick.
[01:33:01]  Yo, chill out.
[01:33:01]  Yo, he just takes a while to cook.
[01:33:03]  Like what people think about both artists doing the same thing, just taking time to create music.
[01:33:08]  I thought Kendrick was ducking, and I was annoyed at Kendrick.
[01:33:11]  And I'm, I don't, I'm a Drake hater, but I'm also not like a Kendrick slurper.
[01:33:16]  But also, look at Kendrick put blatant lies on some of the records.
[01:33:21]  Didn't Drake too?
[01:33:23]  Yes.
[01:33:23]  Well, Drake started it.
[01:33:24]  Yeah, we got to be honest.
[01:33:25]  Yeah, that's the other thing that's biased.
[01:33:27]  I feel like he's like, I'm not sure if Drake started.
[01:33:29]  The cave free shit?
[01:33:31]  Yeah, that came afterwards.
[01:33:33]  That came after the whole, you have a kid.
[01:33:36]  Oh, okay.
[01:33:36]  So what was the first?
[01:33:37]  So everybody.
[01:33:38]  No, push-ups, he takes a lot of time.
[01:33:42]  Whitney and the bodyguard.
[01:33:44]  No, that's a playoff words.
[01:33:46]  I'm just gonna shop back.
[01:33:47]  No, I didn't know you compromised.
[01:33:50]  No, no, no, no.
[01:33:54]  But Dave Free's not a bodyguard.
[01:33:57]  He wanted to just, that's what Drake does.
[01:34:00]  When Drake's getting at an opponent, he always, and I think people figured it out by now.
[01:34:05]  Hey, you're going to get at my love interest.
[01:34:08]  And I think he instantly went there.
[01:34:10]  This is exactly what he did to Push a T when Push a T revealed that he had a son.
[01:34:16]  He said, listen, it's something ring like Virginia.
[01:34:19]  That was again before.
[01:34:20]  That was his wife.
[01:34:21]  That was again before.
[01:34:22]  Yes.
[01:34:22]  No, no, but he didn't mention anything messy like, yo, your general manager is fucking your fine messy.
[01:34:30]  He's talking about some of his.
[01:34:31]  No, But that wasn't.
[01:34:33]  Both of them kept it.
[01:34:34]  He didn't make an allegation at that point.
[01:34:35]  That's what I'm trying to say.
[01:34:36]  And this is what we just mentioned.
[01:34:37]  This is what we said earlier off.
[01:34:39]  We were talking about the roast and mentioning like Tom Brady's kids and nobody mentioned his kids because these are people that are off camera.
[01:34:44]  When you take people that are off camera, off, they're out of the pub.
[01:34:48]  Push Kendrick, keep their wives out of it.
[01:34:51]  They don't put them in the public.
[01:34:52]  You put their name in there.
[01:34:54]  Don't play.
[01:34:55]  Don't be like, whoa, where's this coming from?
[01:34:57]  How dare you speak on my family?
[01:34:58]  But you just, you mentioned my family's name in a battle.
[01:35:01]  You mentioned my family's name negatively.
[01:35:03]  It's not positive.
[01:35:04]  You're not saying, hey, all respect to her.
[01:35:06]  I just don't like you.
[01:35:07]  You mentioned it in innocence.
[01:35:08]  You mentioned the civilians.
[01:35:09]  Once you mention civilians, you're opening that up.
[01:35:12]  You can't be upset when your civilians are coming.

=== Opening Swing Democrat Crown Allegations (15:23) ===

[01:35:13]  I agree.
[01:35:14]  And that's why I think Drake coming out of the Pusha T battle, I think he said to himself, I wasn't comfortable with the fact that my family got exposed and the fact that I had a kid got exposed.
[01:35:25]  And my response would have gone somewhere else.
[01:35:29]  So I'm going to bow out of this one.
[01:35:30]  And I think him coming in, if you listen to the energy on push-ups, he even says at the end, which even though it's a play on words, he's like, he's like, I'm trying to keep it PG, but he's basically almost hinting like, I'm down to really get kind of in the mud with you before I wasn't with Pusha T.
[01:35:44]  The only thing is, I don't think there's ever a response for someone saying, you fuck kids.
[01:35:50]  Like, it's either two things.
[01:35:53]  If you don't ignore it, it's an elephant in the room.
[01:35:55]  If you respond to it, they're like, wait, about that, then they come up with all these loose narratives.
[01:36:01]  Let's do this.
[01:36:01]  You're right.
[01:36:02]  I'll concede that point.
[01:36:03]  I'll say that.
[01:36:04]  Yeah, it's fucked up.
[01:36:05]  You can paint that narrative.
[01:36:06]  Let's say all allegations are false on both sides.
[01:36:09]  Who's winning this battle?
[01:36:11]  It's still Kendrick.
[01:36:13]  No.
[01:36:14]  Like that is bonkers.
[01:36:16]  No, no.
[01:36:17]  No.
[01:36:19]  I do like this not like us record.
[01:36:21]  Yeah, not like us on you.
[01:36:23]  I like this record, but I'm going to be honest with you.
[01:36:26]  The majority of this battle before we got to this was Kendrick Lamar sitting back and saying, I'm going to pick you apart as a man.
[01:36:34]  The very fabric of what you portray to be, you're a whole fraud.
[01:36:38]  You've stolen culture.
[01:36:40]  You're a bad parent.
[01:36:41]  You've made the same mistakes and you won't live up to responsibility.
[01:36:45]  These are things that, like, he was almost picking at the fabric of Drake and you're looking at him like, damn, maybe this guy's a fraud.
[01:36:52]  So now if it's just completely lies that you were.
[01:36:55]  I can't like Drake anymore, man.
[01:36:56]  I really liked him because he was a good dad.
[01:37:00]  That's why I got into Drake.
[01:37:02]  He's such a good father.
[01:37:03]  He's a family man.
[01:37:04]  That's why I've been listening.
[01:37:06]  To me, that's a Corey Antony.
[01:37:07]  He's the only man he is.
[01:37:09]  He fucks bitches.
[01:37:10]  Oh, you're still fucking bitches and writing bars about it.
[01:37:13]  Well, you still go on the yacht and turn it.
[01:37:15]  I'm telling you this, though.
[01:37:16]  It's aspirational living.
[01:37:18]  Culturally, and this is what Kendrick has like on his side.
[01:37:21]  No, you're not going to say culturally.
[01:37:22]  That's what they were into.
[01:37:23]  No, no, no.
[01:37:25]  No.
[01:37:26]  Hey, as soon as he evoked, like, yo, check this out.
[01:37:29]  This is what's authentic to hip-hop.
[01:37:31]  And this guy, I'm going to paint him as, yo, he ran to future when he needed the clubs.
[01:37:35]  He ran into this guy when he needed lingo.
[01:37:37]  He ran to this guy.
[01:37:38]  That was crazy.
[01:37:40]  That then will make a because hip-hop is still about authenticity to a certain extent.
[01:37:45]  And I think that's where Kendrick also, you know, Drake, you know, someone said this, and I agree with him.
[01:37:50]  Drake probably should have kept, yo, I'm going to just give you hit songs the whole way.
[01:37:53]  Let me not try to get into this whole authenticity anymore.
[01:37:57]  Hip-hop is who's the best liar?
[01:38:01]  Yes.
[01:38:02]  It's not really me.
[01:38:04]  Who's the authentic one?
[01:38:05]  Hey, why most people are lie.
[01:38:07]  Why a young boy is rapping about killing people while he lives in a mountain.
[01:38:12]  Get the fuck out of here without authenticity.
[01:38:15]  Like, what are we talking about?
[01:38:16]  But they still feel like that's authentic to a lifestyle that he subscribes to because when he came in the game, he had a suspended 10-year sentence for shooting somebody in the neck.
[01:38:23]  You know what I mean?
[01:38:24]  It's like, okay, this is the type of guy that would do that, right?
[01:38:28]  Authenticity still matters.
[01:38:30]  And I'm telling you, the reason why Kendrick is just like an impossible opponent, unless you prove that all this pro-black shit he's been doing is fake and fraud.
[01:38:39]  Like, you know what I mean?
[01:38:40]  Even then, nobody cares.
[01:38:41]  Like, they would instantly sell.
[01:38:45]  That's the only way if, like, if you had a recording of him saying, man, fuck all this Black Lives Matter shit and all these niggas getting killed by cops.
[01:38:52]  I'm just trying to get a song off.
[01:38:53]  Like, I'm telling you.
[01:38:54]  Yeah, where you get that recording, though.
[01:38:57]  I think he didn't planted the suitcase.
[01:39:00]  I don't know.
[01:39:01]  If he didn't expose it himself on steppers about him sleeping with white women, if Drake was the one to expose that, Drake would have won.
[01:39:07]  Do you think Dr. Washington would have been false?
[01:39:09]  Oh man, that would have been good.
[01:39:11]  That alone would have been the dagger that.
[01:39:12]  Do you think Kendrick dropped that, knowing at some point I'm gonna go at it with this guy and that's gonna get it clean out the closet.
[01:39:19]  Let me get out in front of it.
[01:39:20]  Could be, which would be, or he just wanted to hit 244, not like us.
[01:39:23]  Is the song of the summer?
[01:39:25]  La is back.
[01:39:25]  I don't listen to Joe Rogan anymore.
[01:39:27]  We should all move there and trying to strike a chord and it's probably a minor is the.
[01:39:32]  It's a much more salacious thing.
[01:39:34]  But is that just in terms of like that line is going to stand out?
[01:39:37]  Is that uh, world tour, your girls tour?
[01:39:39]  That's this for this battle.
[01:39:40]  It's a crazy battle.
[01:39:42]  Hey listen, I have no idea how these songs were created, even though I know there was a pattern of i'm.
[01:39:48]  I'm leading you guys to something in terms of Kendrick, but I wonder if he had this song in the tuck the whole time.
[01:39:55]  Like, this song is a bop, i'll tell you.
[01:39:58]  Here's the thing making me.
[01:40:00]  Yo, he mentions family matters in the song.
[01:40:03]  So either, but you could also switch out like a line yeah, but it leads you to believe either he had Drake does have the leak and he got family matters early or he them can.
[01:40:13]  Microwave dj Hit is wrong.
[01:40:15]  This microwave fool, fantastic.
[01:40:17]  Yeah yo, i'm gonna be honest with you.
[01:40:19]  Like he, he played a mental game with Drake, a mental game of chess where he convinced Drake.
[01:40:25]  Yo, all them songs like push-ups where you're just popping.
[01:40:28]  Shit's not gonna work.
[01:40:29]  You're gonna have to get cerebral with me.
[01:40:32]  Yeah, i'm gonna do Meet The Grahams.
[01:40:34]  I'm gonna give.
[01:40:34]  Like these niggas would sound like Jigsaw on the record.
[01:40:36]  Yo, really me this, really that I do something.
[01:40:39]  Bonkers hey, are you ready now to play?
[01:40:41]  Have you ever like i'm like what the guy doing?
[01:40:43]  And then, all of a sudden, when i'm thinking, all right cool, like i'm ready to put my thinking hat on for the next joint, he's like that.
[01:40:50]  We back in the club.
[01:40:50]  I'm like what?
[01:40:52]  And the joint is fire.
[01:40:53]  It's brilliant.
[01:40:54]  Yeah, is this on his fire?
[01:40:55]  He's prolific and he's won it since 2014.
[01:40:57]  Right like, do you feel like the started with control?
[01:41:00]  These two have never really gotten gotten along from control.
[01:41:04]  If you ask me, Kendrick always wanted to destroy Drake.
[01:41:10]  I think he he doesn't like what he represents and that's why I say the cultural part matters.
[01:41:14]  Like there's a ilk of people like Kendrick that they believe he is the true, you know um, not watered down Mc that has gotten his proper flowers to the certain extent.
[01:41:27]  And then they look at Drake to say oh, this guy used us.
[01:41:32]  He's a pop star parading around as a rapper.
[01:41:36]  And I think Drake's ego is like, i'm going to show you i'm a rapper.
[01:41:40]  I'm going to show you i'm a rapper.
[01:41:41]  That's why did you?
[01:41:42]  You had literally said this.
[01:41:43]  You guys disagree with you.
[01:41:44]  It's the insecurity he wanted to validate himself.
[01:41:48]  That's what being a rapper is.
[01:41:49]  We agree with that.
[01:41:50]  Prove to you guys.
[01:41:51]  I need to show you guys that's what being, that's what being a rapper in the Mc is, being the best.
[01:41:55]  You have to be the best.
[01:41:56]  Like you gotta be.
[01:41:57]  Like another cool Jay went at it with Cannabis, always been that it's.
[01:42:02]  If you, if you have that rapper gene, like you're going to engage in some of these rappers being a great.
[01:42:08]  If another comic remotely in the same stratosphere as you started taking shots I you, it's over, it's over.
[01:42:16]  Jay-z didn't have to call out Nas on takeover.
[01:42:18]  Nas's career was already on the downturn but he wanted That number one spot, and people wouldn't give him that spot.
[01:42:23]  And this is what I felt Nasrap better.
[01:42:25]  So he's like, nah, I'm a body.
[01:42:26]  Side note, this is what I've always loved about Kendrick.
[01:42:28]  Even if I didn't, the music wasn't for me.
[01:42:30]  Like, Mr. Morales ain't for me.
[01:42:31]  But control, when he stepped in the booth and was like, I want the crown openly.
[01:42:36]  All you guys, I love you.
[01:42:38]  I'll kill you if I need to.
[01:42:39]  I was like, I with that energy.
[01:42:41]  I just fuck with that energy all the way.
[01:42:43]  So we were all, I think, waiting on this for 10 years.
[01:42:45]  And I think Kendrick was like, hey, let's talk about the race factor and all this.
[01:42:48]  Because I think Drake is getting an unfair, like it's fucked up what they're doing to him because he helped so many artists like become bigger, gave them their first number ones, gave them careers.
[01:43:01]  And now he's looked at it.
[01:43:03]  And now he's looked at like, oh, he just used all these people for his advantage.
[01:43:07]  Incredibly whacked.
[01:43:08]  And also, this is, you know, they always say, like, but it don't.
[01:43:11]  Sorry to interrupt you.
[01:43:12]  It don't matter because with everything, first of all, nothing gets changed here.
[01:43:18]  All the Kendrick fans, the Drake haters, they get satisfied by what Kendrick's done.
[01:43:23]  And then all the Drake fans, they either love what Drake did or they go, he lied, so it doesn't count.
[01:43:30]  Nobody moves at all.
[01:43:31]  Everybody just wants whatever they feel to be valid.
[01:43:34]  I know you said everybody just wants whatever they feel to be validated.
[01:43:36]  It's no different than politics.
[01:43:37]  No different.
[01:43:38]  We have the feeling already.
[01:43:39]  Everybody on the West Coast right now, where it's been a minute since the West Coast really had like a real, I don't want to say that Kendrick wasn't a top guy, but it's been a while since the West Coast has dominated something in some sort of way.
[01:43:50]  Everybody's fucking so excited by this.
[01:43:52]  They're like, yo, we're back on top.
[01:43:54]  We fucking got this.
[01:43:55]  We're the best motherfuckers.
[01:43:56]  So their egos are satisfied.
[01:43:58]  So obviously there's frustration, I'm sure, with Drake fans.
[01:44:01]  Like, man, we really want just Cobra and we didn't get this dub.
[01:44:03]  But I don't think everybody just leaves Drake as a Drake fan.
[01:44:06]  They've built too long.
[01:44:07]  I don't think everybody, but you said it's like politics and swings, swing voters is what decides the winner.
[01:44:12]  Well said right now.
[01:44:13]  But here's the thing that people don't realize about politics.
[01:44:15]  Swing voters still only vote based on their identity.
[01:44:19]  That identity hasn't really been swung.
[01:44:21]  It's just been moved from side to side.
[01:44:23]  So for example, the swing voter, like that middle America voter, that guy, if the Republican is saying we're opening the factory and the Democrat saying we're closing the factory, they swing Republican.
[01:44:33]  And the Democrat is saying we're opening the factory.
[01:44:35]  The public saying we're closing, they go Democrat.
[01:44:38]  What I'm saying is they're not real swing.
[01:44:41]  Nobody's going to change sides in this battle.
[01:44:44]  You just go towards whatever your identity wants.
[01:44:48]  And with those swing voters, as they call them, their identity does not change.
[01:44:52]  They just go to whoever is going to fulfill their identity.
[01:44:55]  The same thing happens in these.
[01:44:56]  We're just saying that like now, if somebody was going for that top spot, I'm the best.
[01:45:01]  So I think Kendrick has swayed people to give him that crown.
[01:45:05]  He got the crown right now.
[01:45:07]  If both of them dropped an album this year, I think Kendrick would have seen it.
[01:45:10]  That's what's crazy.
[01:45:11]  He would have selling for it.
[01:45:12]  But I don't think it's overflowing.
[01:45:14]  I don't think it's over.
[01:45:14]  Consumption right now is like people want to see Kendrick, and it's going to be interesting when he does.
[01:45:20]  They want to see him have the run with him finally having the crown, right?
[01:45:26]  And Drake fans are not leaving.
[01:45:28]  You know what I mean?
[01:45:29]  Like Drake fans, like, he's still going to be the guy.
[01:45:31]  And that's why I think Drake should just be like, he should look at this and be like, wait, I fucked up and given this guy his first solo number one.
[01:45:40]  And so many people are now on his side.
[01:45:43]  I hate saying shit and it takes y'all an hour to say it.
[01:45:46]  I really hate saying shit.
[01:45:47]  Is that what's happening now?
[01:45:48]  I say shit, you go, the good guys go, nah.
[01:45:50]  And then an hour later, you just say it, and I'm supposed to go, oh, you got a good point.
[01:45:53]  No, no one actually discounted that.
[01:45:55]  We're saying that wasn't the whole reason.
[01:45:58]  Drake still gave him a number one.
[01:45:59]  It's still a feature.
[01:46:00]  Oh, yeah, no, of course.
[01:46:01]  It's a feature, bro.
[01:46:02]  No, no, of course.
[01:46:03]  But if your number one comes off the disc battle from the biggest guy, it's a feature.
[01:46:08]  No, no, I'm still, I'm still acknowledging that.
[01:46:10]  What I was always saying is that this guy was always either 1A or 2.
[01:46:15]  He's phenomenal.
[01:46:16]  Like, again, that's why there's two different conversations.
[01:46:19]  One is like, is this guy like musically prolific?
[01:46:22]  Of course, he's amazing at making music.
[01:46:23]  He's amazing at rap.
[01:46:24]  Like, Kendrick is, I don't even think Drake would even utter the words, he's bad at this.
[01:46:30]  Like, I think the reason the fact that he's even beefing with him is because he goes, This guy's awesome at this.
[01:46:35]  I respect him.
[01:46:35]  And I want people to know that I'm more awesome.
[01:46:37]  That's what he's doing.
[01:46:38]  Yeah, no, of course.
[01:46:39]  But to me, that's that insecurity.
[01:46:40]  It's like, if he just knows he's more often awesome and he has the validation of the people coming out to the shows, the fan base, the ticket sales, literally every metric except the fans of the other guy, which he'll never sway anyway.
[01:46:53]  The fans of the other guy are never going to be swayed.
[01:46:55]  What I'm saying is it's a misstep based on his what per what I perceive as, and we all have this as performers.
[01:47:02]  We're like, I just want to win everybody over.
[01:47:03]  What if these people who don't like it?
[01:47:05]  You look at it like a comic, but that's not what, like in hip-hop, it's a really contact adversarial sport.
[01:47:12]  What I'm saying is you could do it without dedicating the whole song, which we agreed earlier, which is you just put out a banger that got a little few bars to Kendrick, and then you make him put out the whole song first.
[01:47:24]  By you putting out the whole song first, I think it gives Kendrick.
[01:47:28]  I always thought that.
[01:47:29]  I always thought him going first.
[01:47:31]  But again, here's the thing too.
[01:47:33]  Kendrick has had the patience of waiting 10 years.
[01:47:37]  And Drake, like, you know, Drake told me something like because he just went on like an 84-CD tour.
[01:47:43]  He dropped three albums, went on 44, like the dude is exhausted.
[01:47:45]  Yeah.
[01:47:46]  Right.
[01:47:47]  Before he could go on vacation, this motherfucker dissed him.
[01:47:49]  He wants to get this over with now.
[01:47:51]  He just wants to do it now.
[01:47:51]  He's like, all right, you know what?
[01:47:52]  Fuck it.
[01:47:53]  I'm going to lock it.
[01:47:53]  I'm going to get this done.
[01:47:54]  And Kendrick has the advantage of I could just play the whack-a-mole thing and be like, all right, well, I'll be back later.
[01:48:01]  Yeah.
[01:48:01]  You know, and I think Drake cooked up something, but hoping to hear what Kendrick was going to come with.
[01:48:07]  And it was clear Kendrick wasn't going to drop again.
[01:48:10]  And he's just like, yo, what do I really got to do to make this guy rap?
[01:48:15]  Like, you know, he's kind of posting on the gram, like, yo, what's up?
[01:48:19]  Any day now?
[01:48:20]  And he's like, fuck it.
[01:48:21]  I guess I have to start off.
[01:48:22]  However, I think that played into Kendrick's strategy because he was counterpunching it.
[01:48:26]  If we're thinking about it, like, yo, I'm counterpunching.
[01:48:28]  Oh, it looks thirsty almost.
[01:48:29]  It's like, I'm okay.
[01:48:30]  You're trying to hit me with the hit song with push-ups.
[01:48:33]  Okay, bet.
[01:48:34]  Let me give you this layered song about how I'm about to just dissect everything you got going on.
[01:48:39]  Then Drake is like, okay, all right.
[01:48:41]  Let me try to play your game a little bit and let me kind of cycle.
[01:48:45]  And oh, you're obsessed with these rumors because, oh, you were touched as a child.
[01:48:49]  I remember you said that on your song and he's now doing that.
[01:48:52]  And Kendrick's like, Psych, I got a club hit too, motherfucker.
[01:48:56]  So strategically, Kendrick played a lot of strategically.
[01:49:00]  Oh, yeah, he is.
[01:49:02]  And Drake is a top-tier chess player.
[01:49:04]  Yeah.
[01:49:05]  Awesome.
[01:49:06]  Those little tidbits, yo, he has, I have the van that's the replica.
[01:49:09]  I guess it's a replica of that van that was on your first album cover.
[01:49:15]  I crushed it in my video.
[01:49:17]  Oh, okay.
[01:49:18]  The place you shot out for my city, no new Ho King.
[01:49:21]  I'm in there just chilling, showing you that I'm the boss of this shit.
[01:49:24]  You know what I mean?
[01:49:24]  Like he's doing all these things against, like, I always said, thank God that Meek Mill was so fucking stupid because that nigga was just playing like, yo, he was playing like bingo.
[01:49:36]  Like Drake, Drake is running circles around him.
[01:49:39]  But he's going at a guy who's just a master chess player that you can't even see his moves anywhere else.
[01:49:47]  Like someone actually said this.
[01:49:49]  They said, hey, listen, Drake may have got a little bit of a big head.
[01:49:53]  No, did he?
[01:49:55]  Because of the win over Meek.
[01:49:57]  And one of those things where it's just that Meek just madly and badly misplayed his hand.
[01:50:02]  And he was like heavily on drugs at that time.
[01:50:04]  You must think about this, right?
[01:50:08]  If Pusha T had Drake fall back with a rumor or not rumor, a confirmation of a child.
[01:50:14]  Well, what's the biggest like expose you could have had of a rapper to that time?
[01:50:20]  It would have been, you don't write your rhymes.
[01:50:22]  Except, you know how he fumbled it?
[01:50:24]  The nigga tweeted it out three weeks before he made a song about it.
[01:50:28]  It's like, if he revealed that on a song out of the blue, motherfucker, you don't write your rhymes.
[01:50:34]  And we're like, huh?
[01:50:34]  What are you talking about?
[01:50:35]  Then just play the reference dress.

=== Atlanta Millions Fed Information Die (15:13) ===

[01:50:37]  We might look at that differently.
[01:50:38]  And the song sucked.
[01:50:39]  Yeah, that's all sucked.
[01:50:42]  All right, that's a pre-records.
[01:50:43]  It become a loser of a rapper.
[01:50:45]  Yeah, yeah.
[01:50:45]  We're just doing it.
[01:50:46]  You got to keep this real.
[01:50:47]  Did Drake feed him that information about the daughter?
[01:50:52]  Because he's claiming that he fed him the information.
[01:50:54]  I don't think he did.
[01:50:56]  I think he's just claiming what the internet is saying.
[01:51:00]  Be objective, Ag.
[01:51:02]  I do believe the daughter thing.
[01:51:04]  I don't believe the other things.
[01:51:07]  Oh, I didn't even know that that was up for debate.
[01:51:09]  I thought it was like fact that he that he fed the information.
[01:51:12]  No.
[01:51:13]  No, that's interesting.
[01:51:15]  I think the other thing.
[01:51:16]  I think it's your picture in the back of some fuzzy girl in the video saying, oh, this happens to be the same.
[01:51:21]  No, no, no.
[01:51:21]  I think he did feed that because I could tell they were, I could tell they were trying to recently feed like, yo, the other street dudes that usually hold down OVO in Toronto.
[01:51:30]  They're getting tired of him.
[01:51:31]  He hasn't been feeding the wolves.
[01:51:33]  And I saw him randomly just beefing.
[01:51:34]  They're like, fuck OVO.
[01:51:36]  He had a tie that's changed now.
[01:51:37]  What's up?
[01:51:38]  Yo, you better put someone in the books.
[01:51:39]  And I'm like, okay, you're trying to get them to feed into an angle.
[01:51:42]  And I think I even said to Drake, I said, those are boys still, man.
[01:51:47]  Like, I'm not buying that shit.
[01:51:49]  The one thing I don't think that was staged was I do believe that his father probably went on vacation with some girl and the suitcase got stolen.
[01:51:58]  I do think, like, because that doesn't, why would you have prescriptions in your name and shit like that?
[01:52:06]  Like, you know what I mean?
[01:52:06]  If you're trying to stage, like, I think he did a good job on family matters to own it, to be like, hey, well, the main back glove was in there because of me and blah, blah, blah.
[01:52:16]  That doesn't really make sense.
[01:52:17]  I didn't even ask him about that, though.
[01:52:19]  So I don't know.
[01:52:20]  But then why did Kendrick remove the cover art?
[01:52:23]  Well, I think it only got removed on Apple, I think.
[01:52:26]  Well, yeah, you can't upload the DSPs like an actual medical script.
[01:52:30]  You know what I mean?
[01:52:30]  It's like, yeah, it's like, yeah, the guy's name and address is all that.
[01:52:35]  I still don't believe Drake fed him that because he would have said it right away.
[01:52:39]  Yeah.
[01:52:39]  Right away.
[01:52:39]  He'd have been like, hey, dummy, we fed you this information instead of being like, oh, I got a daughter or something, but nobody told me.
[01:52:46]  I believe he did because that is so random.
[01:52:49]  If Kendrick had, if he said it so confidently, he must have had it from some really reliable source that I feel that, you know what all these guys are doing, right?
[01:53:01]  Like they're sending, they're finding out information.
[01:53:04]  Like how do they find out information on one another?
[01:53:06]  This is kind of fun.
[01:53:07]  Well, Pusha T said it.
[01:53:08]  Push it said, everybody thinks that Kanye told me.
[01:53:11]  No.
[01:53:12]  40.
[01:53:13]  40 was talking to a girl.
[01:53:14]  They're all smashing the same girls.
[01:53:16]  What did I say?
[01:53:17]  They're all smashing the same girls.
[01:53:19]  Let's get dicked down by all famous people.
[01:53:20]  I found out that I found out that Metro Boomin hated Drake before it was universally known.
[01:53:28]  I found that out because a chick, he smashed in LA.
[01:53:32]  I smashed in LA.
[01:53:34]  And, you know, we're all talking and, yo, nothing, a girl always wants to impress you by flexing the other popping guys she's fucked with.
[01:53:42]  And then they always just tell every detail.
[01:53:44]  So I'm like, oh, this is great.
[01:53:45]  Like, yeah, he hates the fuck out of Drake.
[01:53:47]  I'm like, oh, shit.
[01:53:48]  But then the same thing kind of came up again where people are.
[01:53:50]  Did you find out why?
[01:53:52]  I still don't know why.
[01:53:54]  I just know that he does.
[01:53:55]  How do you know they're not using you?
[01:53:57]  How do you know the girls aren't sent to smash you, pillow talk with you?
[01:54:01]  Have you ever thought that academics is working for me?
[01:54:03]  No, no, hold on.
[01:54:04]  Because me and Metro don't get along.
[01:54:06]  Me and Metro don't get along.
[01:54:07]  Some like.
[01:54:08]  What I'm saying is you could be doing stuff that you don't even realize that you're doing.
[01:54:10]  Oh, no, no, no.
[01:54:11]  That probably is, that probably is.
[01:54:12]  Like, this is a really, this is a really convoluted game, which I realize I think Future and Drake, they're beefing over women.
[01:54:20]  I think that's a really simple thing to kind of.
[01:54:22]  Why are they beefing over women?
[01:54:23]  I'm like, so like, this is such a confusing notion that guys would beef over women that they're not even trying to wife.
[01:54:31]  I mean, it's not about the women, it's about the respect.
[01:54:33]  It's power and ego, though.
[01:54:34]  I think it's they're saying things to these women, and then the women are saying stuff, relaying it back to the guys.
[01:54:39]  So it's like, oh, fuck with him.
[01:54:41]  So it's not that we fucked him girl.
[01:54:42]  It's like, no, no, no, I know you don't like me because this girl talk.
[01:54:45]  Is there a thing?
[01:54:46]  You're like a random, like a random girl that's supposed to, I don't know if she fucked Future, but she being around it.
[01:54:51]  When I was trying to figure out, I'm like, yo, why haven't Future and Drake been around each other?
[01:54:55]  Like a girl who's like get invited to these little parties that they do and they're around like fly on the wall type shit.
[01:55:02]  We had some of these conversations was like Future, like Future was super pissed off that Drake did an album with 21 Savage.
[01:55:09]  Oh, really?
[01:55:10]  Yes.
[01:55:10]  Why?
[01:55:10]  Because they beef like crazy?
[01:55:12]  That's why I was a little confused because he did an album with you, but according to the person who I got it from, they're like, hey, he felt that Drake used him at that time to have that cultural equity within the clubs in Atlanta.
[01:55:26]  And then Future used him to have the cultural equity within masses.
[01:55:30]  And then everybody mutually benefits.
[01:55:32]  If anybody, Future benefited more.
[01:55:34]  But for them, they feel like, well, if you're going to come back to Atlanta and do it with another rapper, it should be me.
[01:55:41]  That's what I've heard.
[01:55:42]  But there's probably like a bunch of nuances.
[01:55:44]  I'm like, so it's like high school.
[01:55:46]  I'm being honest.
[01:55:46]  It's really like high school.
[01:55:48]  All of this should be.
[01:55:48]  Because most people who want to be famous are insecure, myself included.
[01:55:52]  I'm not going to act like, you know, most of us try to work on it, but some don't.
[01:55:56]  Especially I think if you're famous young, there's no need to work on yourself.
[01:55:58]  And I thought that, hey, some people are just like the dude's fucking flying around this bitch with a jumbo jet and got a $400 million contract while these guys, if they get $15 million, which is, by the way, you know, you know, it's funny watching Drake and Rick Ross argue about money.
[01:56:15]  And Drake says to him, yo.
[01:56:17]  Yeah, I was looks like a slice of cheese.
[01:56:19]  Yeah, yeah.
[01:56:19]  And he says, like, he's being Brett Barrish's bitch.
[01:56:22]  Like, basically, that's the guy who owns the spirits.
[01:56:26]  Ah, that Belarium.
[01:56:28]  Valeria, all that.
[01:56:30]  And if you look at Ross, like, Ross will be dissing everybody in the world with the bottles in his hand.
[01:56:34]  Like, oh, he's always promoting.
[01:56:36]  So he's funny, dude.
[01:56:37]  Rick Ross was genuinely funny.
[01:56:39]  That was one of the times I thought Drake was going on script.
[01:56:41]  I think he was losing what the people cared about.
[01:56:43]  Like, we like funny shit.
[01:56:44]  Yeah.
[01:56:44]  And like.
[01:56:45]  You're not going to be Rick on funny.
[01:56:46]  Yeah.
[01:56:46]  Rick say white boy and B.B.L. Drisky is phenomenal.
[01:56:50]  And Drake had that misstep with the whole texting his mom thing.
[01:56:53]  Like that was corny.
[01:56:54]  What was that?
[01:56:55]  What was that?
[01:56:55]  Like he shot.
[01:56:56]  Always shot.
[01:56:57]  Say, oh, mom, Rick is being racist or whatever.
[01:57:00]  Like, even though that probably wasn't a real Texas mom, but the fact that he tried to put it out that way is real.
[01:57:05]  Calling a guy racist.
[01:57:06]  Yeah.
[01:57:07]  Calling a guy racist that is going to use the fact that you're not in the culture and you're a white boy.
[01:57:12]  You're kind of proving it with it.
[01:57:13]  Yeah, I hear you.
[01:57:14]  You know what I mean?
[01:57:15]  Huge misstep.
[01:57:16]  As a white guy, I was like, yeah, this is kind of racist.
[01:57:19]  I didn't relate it to that the most of anything.
[01:57:20]  That was the best diss I've ever seen.
[01:57:22]  Hey, I think Drake should just, you know, just hit song is hit song.
[01:57:27]  What's the next move?
[01:57:28]  What is the next move for Drake?
[01:57:29]  Hit song's way out of this.
[01:57:31]  Now, hit song meaning about Kendrick or just about something else.
[01:57:35]  Give him three lines here or there.
[01:57:36]  Still a bitch.
[01:57:37]  A nice God's plan.
[01:57:39]  Yeah, I'm still bigger than you.
[01:57:41]  Hey, listen, you're the liar that, you know, I gave you a couple of weeks, but that's it.
[01:57:46]  Yeah.
[01:57:47]  Now, here's the problem.
[01:57:48]  You put out, you try to put out the hit song.
[01:57:51]  You try to do it, and then it flops or doesn't work.
[01:57:56]  That's bad.
[01:57:57]  Yeah.
[01:57:58]  That's bad.
[01:57:59]  Yeah, but you know what Drake does best?
[01:58:03]  Do a collab.
[01:58:05]  Go to one of the guys, which is, by the way, this is one of the most interesting parts I've been looking at.
[01:58:09]  Who still stands with who?
[01:58:10]  Who's truth and sides?
[01:58:11]  Exactly.
[01:58:12]  Yeah, break it.
[01:58:13]  People, I've seen a lot of artists who you could tell.
[01:58:17]  And that's what I was saying before when you had cut me off.
[01:58:20]  I was saying, with every billionaire, they have the story of you fucked over like 10 people.
[01:58:24]  Or you had to, right?
[01:58:25]  I think Drake, what we're watching now, especially the silence, is a lot of people who not necessarily fucked over, but they might feel ever so slighted.
[01:58:37]  Yo, remember when I just came in a game and you hopped on my song?
[01:58:41]  And then I got a little cool and I said, yo, could I, could you give me another verse?
[01:58:46]  And you left me on red, motherfucker.
[01:58:48]  But he already put you on.
[01:58:49]  This is where it's like, no, because you're also speculating.
[01:58:53]  In music, it's more of these genuine relationships, not where you're only fucking with me when it's convenient.
[01:59:00]  Those people become a little bit salty.
[01:59:03]  Like, yo, I'm salty at you that you or they feel essentially used, even though it's really mutual.
[01:59:09]  Right?
[01:59:10]  It's not even mutual.
[01:59:11]  I mean, if you're an up-and-coming artist and then the biggest artist alive does a song with you, the only person that benefits from that is the up-and-coming artist.
[01:59:18]  Let me say this.
[01:59:19]  It's like Roddy Rich.
[01:59:20]  Roddy Rich has had a song with Drake.
[01:59:23]  It got leaked.
[01:59:25]  It's called Incut.
[01:59:27]  The real song never came out.
[01:59:29]  Roddy Rich, obviously, when he dropped the box, one of the most popular artists on the earth.
[01:59:34]  Afterwards, subsequently, his career kind of cooled out a bit.
[01:59:37]  He just had a song with Drake that it just didn't come out, though.
[01:59:40]  I think he might feel away.
[01:59:42]  I think he might, you know, not like salty, but it's just like, you know, okay, I'm not in the same space I was when we cut that record and that got leaked and didn't come out.
[01:59:51]  Maybe you don't want to do another record.
[01:59:53]  Now when I see Kendrick going at you, I'm a little bit more pro-Kendrick.
[01:59:57]  Like he's now, yo, West Coast Crody.
[01:59:59]  You know what I mean?
[02:00:00]  So I think Drake is watching, and we can't really see any artists standing with Drake.
[02:00:04]  21 Savage, right?
[02:00:06]  He just brought him on tour and said third.
[02:00:07]  Of course, 21 fucks with Drake, but he's stuck between a rock and a hard place.
[02:00:13]  He's from Atlanta.
[02:00:14]  You can't go against Future.
[02:00:16]  Future is king of Atlanta.
[02:00:17]  You know what I mean?
[02:00:17]  I remember doing an interview with 21, and he told me, say, yo, in Atlanta, Future is bigger than Drake.
[02:00:23]  Like the people of Atlanta care more about Future than Drake, right?
[02:00:26]  So he can't go against Future.
[02:00:29]  And then his man is also Metro.
[02:00:31]  So he's like noticeably absent and quiet.
[02:00:34]  And Drake is kind of out here fighting by himself.
[02:00:37]  The second thing we've also not seen during the meatmill thing, when all that was going on, yo, Drake was popping up in Houston clubs, got bitches shaking their ass to back to back.
[02:00:46]  It looked like he was the culture.
[02:00:50]  Like he was what people were liking outside.
[02:00:52]  And I'm watching now.
[02:00:54]  Look like Drake is stuck in the booth.
[02:00:56]  And even though we haven't seen Kendrick, his music seems to be outside.
[02:01:00]  Everybody's dancing to the song.
[02:01:03]  I don't think he's stuck in the booth.
[02:01:04]  I think it looks, at least Pierce, he's trying to keep the women on his side.
[02:01:08]  Like he's popping up at Nikki's shows.
[02:01:10]  He's popping up at Sexy Brad shows.
[02:01:13]  Not during the beef.
[02:01:14]  Yeah.
[02:01:15]  Recently, he was on tour.
[02:01:16]  Nikki, like, not on tour, but he did like a few different dates with Nikki.
[02:01:19]  That's after he dropped push-ups.
[02:01:21]  Like, shit got, shit got to another.
[02:01:24]  It's since this next level.
[02:01:25]  Yeah, yeah.
[02:01:25]  No, he's that's what he's winning.
[02:01:27]  No, I'm winning.
[02:01:28]  Yo, when you're winning, I'm outside.
[02:01:30]  Yeah, when I'm, when it's a good time when you're winning, yeah.
[02:01:32]  It's a real good time when you're winning.
[02:01:34]  Yeah.
[02:01:35]  And it's, it's just odd how no one is speaking up for Drake.
[02:01:40]  I think, if I'm Drake, right?
[02:01:42]  Yeah.
[02:01:43]  And I built, I built my, the way I orchestrated my career is instead of, and there are some artists that have done this, trying to shut down every new artist that comes out out of fear that they're going to take them over, like literally trying to like squash and silence careers.
[02:01:59]  Instead, going, I'm going to give you your first hit.
[02:02:01]  I'm going to give you a first hit so that when you blow up, you remember me and we can continue to work together and you'll always remember that, you know, we built something good and I'm going to put you on.
[02:02:11]  And maybe he really likes putting people on.
[02:02:14]  Maybe he's, I mean, like, I know there's, look, Joe Rogan likes putting on new talent.
[02:02:18]  He's done it with so many of us.
[02:02:19]  He enjoys it.
[02:02:20]  He doesn't ask for nothing back.
[02:02:22]  He literally just enjoys putting on people who are nice.
[02:02:24]  So maybe there's a part of Drake like that.
[02:02:26]  And he's done it with so many people.
[02:02:28]  Now, when Joe's going through anything, he got a lot of motherfuckers like me that are ready to just start swinging because we know how important he was.
[02:02:37]  Same thing with Charlotte.
[02:02:38]  Charlotte going through anything?
[02:02:40]  I'm riding with Charlotte till the end of times.
[02:02:43]  So it's like, if there's anything that affects any of those guys, we're riding.
[02:02:50]  If I'm Drake right now, I would be kind of hurt that I put all these fucking people on, did all these songs with these people who are really, you could say, oh, they're popping.
[02:02:59]  They were no names in terms of international play before he puts them on.
[02:03:04]  Probably has made them through that millions and millions of dollars, right?
[02:03:09]  I'm very vocal about the credit, you know, who I give credit to, the people who put me on.
[02:03:13]  Very vocal, right?
[02:03:15]  I'm sure those people in some way must feel if they're like reasonable human beings.
[02:03:19]  And then nobody talking?
[02:03:21]  Nobody speaking up.
[02:03:22]  I'd be tight, bro.
[02:03:23]  Well, they don't want to go against the other side.
[02:03:25]  And also, this is what the other side do.
[02:03:28]  But that's what's great.
[02:03:29]  Now you're playing politics.
[02:03:30]  Well, here's the thing, too.
[02:03:32]  I think there's a lot of people in the industry that resent that motherfucker.
[02:03:37]  But beyond that, they have looked at Drake and they have really maybe seen a little bit behind the curtain and they respect him less now.
[02:03:46]  What does that mean?
[02:03:47]  There was a time when they felt that he was the instant I get on a verse, it's going crazy, it's going to affect shit.
[02:03:55]  Like, I think now people look at him and be like, well, what is Drake if he doesn't have a yacht next to him or if he doesn't, he's not riding this way.
[02:04:05]  They don't look at him as untouchable anymore.
[02:04:10]  Do you think it, I'm playing devil's advocate because again, I'm the Drake hater on the team.
[02:04:15]  Do you think it says something that none of those guys will go to Beth?
[02:04:18]  Because there's nothing anybody could say about you to make me go, I believe you.
[02:04:23]  I'm going to stay quiet.
[02:04:24]  I'll die for this guy.
[02:04:25]  You'll die for, but that's the thing.
[02:04:29]  Is it not telling?
[02:04:30]  I don't, I mean, I'm actually asking you, do you think it's telling that nobody's coming?
[02:04:34]  Do you think that says something about Drake more than the people?
[02:04:37]  You see what I'm saying?
[02:04:38]  Nobody.
[02:04:39]  Like, is every one of these guys shitty?
[02:04:42]  You see what I'm saying?
[02:04:43]  I mean, in this business, you get people who are incredibly desperate for fame and they're incredibly in our business too.
[02:04:49]  And they're willing to do, like, I just had a buddy who said that they weren't going to do something where they were going to cancel something.
[02:04:58]  I'm going to try to be vague here.
[02:04:59]  And they were going to cancel something because doing it was getting them a lot of hate.
[02:05:04]  And that thing that they were going to do is with somebody who really, I mean, kind of put them on and give them opportunities, et cetera.
[02:05:11]  But just because they were worried about their career and what was going on with them, they're like, I got to cancel it.
[02:05:16]  So people are going to prioritize themselves first.
[02:05:19]  But I hear the point you're making, which is like, oh, shit, maybe our perception is that he's so benevolent, he's helping all these guys when maybe they don't really see it that way.
[02:05:26]  Is that what you guys are saying?
[02:05:27]  Yeah, like zero people are coming.
[02:05:29]  There should be one person, I would think.
[02:05:31]  Now, granted, I think you were first to support Rogan and that helped open up.
[02:05:34]  But I was supposed to actually do, after his controversy happened, I was supposed to do the pop that Monday, which was crazy, but like never crossed my mind to not do it.
[02:05:42]  I was like, man, you gotta, this guy's helped out Schultz.
[02:05:45]  Schultz has helped out you.
[02:05:46]  He's offering you this platform.
[02:05:48]  You do this fucking podcast.
[02:05:49]  There's no question about it.

=== Zach Spare Reasons Bia Audience (08:52) ===

[02:05:50]  There's no one doing that for Drake.
[02:05:52]  Zero people.
[02:05:53]  And again, I am biased.
[02:05:55]  And I don't know if he's a bad guy.
[02:05:57]  So maybe I shouldn't present this.
[02:05:58]  But all these guys are industry friends, like all that, all that twin shit.
[02:06:03]  Like, they're not really friends.
[02:06:04]  And so it's like, is there one human being, just one human being who's like, yeah, this is a good guy?
[02:06:08]  I'm going to vouch for you.
[02:06:09]  Yeah, we don't vouch as a good guy.
[02:06:12]  They would have to go against him.
[02:06:13]  Birdman is the only guy defending you.
[02:06:16]  What's going on?
[02:06:16]  Yeah, but that's what I'm saying.
[02:06:18]  The industry is against them.
[02:06:19]  Like, all of these guys.
[02:06:21]  This is a great point.
[02:06:22]  Yeah, like, put like this.
[02:06:23]  If you're industry friends and the industry is against him, then you're going to side with the industry because you see your security, safety, and longevity within the industry.
[02:06:32]  Yeah, it just exposes that these friendships and my twin, my dog.
[02:06:38]  Metro said it earlier: everyone has to pick a side.
[02:06:40]  If you pick Drake's side, you ain't beats.
[02:06:44]  Well, you almost have to hope that he survives it.
[02:06:47]  Well, obviously, he'll survive, but he'll survive for Drake.
[02:06:50]  Will Drake still have that ability to help you?
[02:06:52]  Because now you're making an enemy of the weekend.
[02:06:55]  You're making an enemy of Metro Boomin, Future.
[02:06:58]  All of these guys who there's much more that's not even that's not present.
[02:07:03]  Like this is faction.
[02:07:05]  This is why being able to have your own audience and create your own shit, not feeling so dependent is so important.
[02:07:14]  We can go to war for Joe.
[02:07:17]  We can go to war for Charlotte.
[02:07:18]  We can go to war for any of the people that we really care about, right?
[02:07:23]  Because we are not dependent on the industry.
[02:07:27]  The second you are dependent, the second, oh fuck, man, the only hit I ever had was with Metro.
[02:07:31]  And if I say this, Metro is not going to feed me any more beats.
[02:07:33]  And then what if I just bought a house and then my kids in private school and shit?
[02:07:36]  I won't be able to pay.
[02:07:37]  All right, let me just be quiet.
[02:07:39]  Yeah, you have you're you're you're shackled by your ties to the industry and I'm still wondering though, what the fuck did he do to all these guys?
[02:07:47]  Was somebody else?
[02:07:48]  That's what I'm trying to say.
[02:07:49]  I don't know if it was great issue.
[02:07:51]  I mean, like, could you speculate?
[02:07:53]  Okay.
[02:07:54]  Well, well, we've just heard bullshit reasons, like reasons that are just like very light.
[02:07:58]  Girls, like, yeah, like everybody.
[02:08:00]  Things like that.
[02:08:01]  I mean, Rick Ross on his song, he said, yo, it's because you sent to cease and desist.
[02:08:04]  But like, like the guy who you're mad at, for like French is still following Drake.
[02:08:09]  There's a deeper issue.
[02:08:10]  And I've seen Metro allude to it.
[02:08:12]  He said, he said, stop acting like the reason we fell out is because of a girl.
[02:08:16]  You didn't fuck my girl.
[02:08:19]  I'll spare you.
[02:08:21]  He said, I'll spare us both, to be fair, because he was going to look bad too.
[02:08:24]  To be fair to Drake.
[02:08:25]  Metro, whatever the reason was going to be, he said, the reason I'm not telling you is it'll make both of us look bad.
[02:08:30]  Did he say that?
[02:08:31]  No, no, no, no.
[02:08:32]  He said, he said, I'll spare.
[02:08:33]  He said, I'll spare both of us, but he says, you look much worse if I tell what it is, but I'll spare both of us.
[02:08:41]  Yeah.
[02:08:42]  Okay.
[02:08:42]  So I read it as if, like, oh, if I say what happened, it's, I'm going to be embarrassed, but you're going to look like the bad guy.
[02:08:50]  Yeah.
[02:08:52]  But but but I think what we're all trying to say here is it would make Drake look way worse, which is why Drake won't come out with it.
[02:09:00]  He still looks stupid.
[02:09:01]  Yeah.
[02:09:02]  Metro will still, yeah, look, he'll have some sort of negative feeling about it, but not as bad as potentially Drake.
[02:09:07]  Yeah, yeah.
[02:09:08]  So maybe this has happened time and time again, and enough people have been affected that nobody's coming.
[02:09:13]  I even asked Drake.
[02:09:14]  I was like, yo.
[02:09:15]  Yeah, what do you?
[02:09:16]  I mean, not on us, your guys' business.
[02:09:18]  I don't know.
[02:09:18]  Well, I mean, and I don't think he's gonna.
[02:09:21]  This is probably again, the mere fact that we've gotten two albums, a bunch of diss songs, and none of these guys have said, you did A, B, C, and D. Like, that's odd.
[02:09:32]  Like, we're beefing and fighting, but we can't even address the reasons why.
[02:09:37]  What Drake has told me was like, yo, he honestly just feels it comes from like people viewing his position.
[02:09:44]  Like, you know, jealousy, the fact that he's at the top, he got the jet, the lifestyle, the, you know, I mean, the money.
[02:09:52]  And because of whatever, you know, maybe wrong or slight, even sometime if he doesn't intend it, they may have just like harbored feelings for him.
[02:10:02]  But I still look at him like, yeah, nah, not this amount of music.
[02:10:05]  I'm like, yo, it's time to get him today.
[02:10:06]  There is some validity to jealousy.
[02:10:08]  We all get jealous.
[02:10:09]  We all, whatever.
[02:10:10]  But when a guy at the top writes off everything is there, just jealous.
[02:10:14]  I don't fully believe that.
[02:10:16]  You know what I mean?
[02:10:16]  That's not.
[02:10:17]  And especially it looks even weirder when you're the guy, like you're the guy that took Jay-Z's motto to Super Saiyan when you put your hand around the new guy.
[02:10:26]  Yeah.
[02:10:27]  Like, if every comic went against Joe Rogan and wouldn't say why, you would probably have to say, what the fuck did Joe do?
[02:10:36]  Yeah, the easy thing to say is, well, yeah, your job is his spot.
[02:10:39]  But it's like, well, he's kind of helped all y'all.
[02:10:42]  Yeah.
[02:10:43]  And that's this is a fucking great conspiracy right here.
[02:10:46]  Yeah, no, I really don't know.
[02:10:47]  Anybody who spent time with Joe will vouch for Joe.
[02:10:49]  He's a great fucking guy, blah, blah, blah.
[02:10:52]  That's not none of these.
[02:10:53]  All right, has anybody vouched for Drake?
[02:10:57]  Birdman.
[02:10:58]  Birdman.
[02:10:58]  Yachty.
[02:10:58]  I'm sure Yachty's been.
[02:10:59]  I don't even know if Yadi's been.
[02:11:00]  No, yeah, he's because Yachty had liked to post that seemingly was dissing the other guys.
[02:11:05]  And he said, no, it was a mistake.
[02:11:06]  Yeah.
[02:11:06]  It's like, bro, it's your man's.
[02:11:08]  Like, you guys paint your nails together.
[02:11:09]  You got to stand on it.
[02:11:11]  There's time.
[02:11:11]  Like, yo, you getting the little gel joints done together.
[02:11:14]  You got to stand on it right now.
[02:11:15]  They just did a podcast together on the beach with it.
[02:11:19]  Who's Zach something?
[02:11:20]  Kendrick said, you're playing dirty with Zach.
[02:11:23]  So Zach Bia.
[02:11:24]  He's been about two.
[02:11:25]  Or he's accusing Drake because that's another angle that I masterful.
[02:11:31]  Like, he's defeated every possible angle Drake could go.
[02:11:35]  Like, number one, all right.
[02:11:39]  There's the angle of, hey, the venue for this beef is Academic Stream, and he's a number one Drake fan.
[02:11:45]  How does this play out?
[02:11:46]  Like, you know what I mean?
[02:11:47]  You know what he says?
[02:11:48]  He's compromised.
[02:11:49]  Like, he hits everything.
[02:11:51]  And so the Zach Bia thing is, at first, the intranet lopsidedly was like, yo, it's Drake, And Kendra kind of negates it by kind of like trying to air out and put into air.
[02:12:05]  Drake is using a whole bunch of bots.
[02:12:07]  Zach Bia is a guy who's, I think he manages yeet, but like there are these nefarious individuals that kind of make narratives.
[02:12:18]  Well, that's what he's alluding to.
[02:12:20]  You're the bot.
[02:12:21]  Like, yo, you're cooking up the box for Drake.
[02:12:24]  You know what I mean?
[02:12:25]  And him kind of like throwing certain things into the air.
[02:12:28]  You got to listen to these songs.
[02:12:29]  I know.
[02:12:31]  He's famous songs, Authority.
[02:12:33]  I sent him every song in order.
[02:12:35]  He did.
[02:12:35]  He did.
[02:12:36]  Now, to be fair, I've never spoken to Authority about the music.
[02:12:38]  Yeah.
[02:12:39]  I don't care.
[02:12:42]  You got to.
[02:12:43]  Buddy, not like us.
[02:12:44]  No, you have to.
[02:12:44]  Not like us is such a fucking banger.
[02:12:46]  No, crazy.
[02:12:47]  No, it's hard.
[02:12:48]  It's a back-to-back movement after 10 minutes of songs.
[02:12:50]  Yeah, yo, yo, give it to you.
[02:12:51]  Give it to you.
[02:12:52]  If meet the Grahams was actually all factual, it's insane.
[02:12:58]  It would be probably one of the biggest knockout punches we've seen to not only reveal and I wrote a verse to your mom explaining that this industry has corrupted her son and turned him into a pedophile.
[02:13:14]  Let's say that's also real, which that's not real, obviously.
[02:13:17]  And then I showed how you've neglected actual real responsibility, chase the worst things that come along with fame, the things that you think I'm jealous of you for, till you have not only, it's not just like parenting.
[02:13:33]  It's just like, you're hiding another child.
[02:13:36]  He's like, you know, he's dropping these lines like, you call yourself the boy.
[02:13:39]  I'm going to help you turn to the man.
[02:13:41]  Like, that's kind of like, it's taking every, like, you just can't listen to Drake just talk about, yo, I'm going to the club to fuck some bitches no more.
[02:13:48]  Like, this guy's basically saying, this guy's a piece of shit and a creep.
[02:13:52]  Yeah, fuck a rap beef.
[02:13:53]  It's a war.
[02:13:53]  Yeah, yo, yeah, yeah.
[02:13:54]  Y'all want to listen to this guy?
[02:13:56]  That's crazy, bro.
[02:13:56]  For the turnup?
[02:13:57]  I should have listened to that.
[02:13:58]  When I heard that one, I was like, good thing was lies.
[02:14:01]  I was like, the whole time I'm listening.
[02:14:02]  I listened.
[02:14:03]  I was like, then I found out it was lies.
[02:14:05]  I was like, whoa, fucking bullet.
[02:14:07]  Anybody ever picked me apart or exposed me in that way?
[02:14:10]  Dodge the bullet, man.
[02:14:11]  I act off my stuff.
[02:14:12]  I don't count him apart in a way that it's like he can't recover from.
[02:14:16]  If the stuff was real, it was lies.
[02:14:19]  So we don't count them.
[02:14:20]  Do you know the masters theory that like Drake got a part of this larger contract that has everyone's masters going to him and he's getting a piece of everything?
