Then we got breaking news. We did a
0:02
whole Patreon. Last question in a
0:04
Patreon. For no better reason. And y'all can
0:06
watch it on Patreon. For no better reason,
0:08
nobody asked for this. Mark just brings up
0:10
Skit's skin. His back's blown out. For
0:12
no better reason, he's wearing pantyhose. Mark brings up
0:15
a video. Skit's got the Minnie Mouse gloves on
0:17
or Mickey. We don't know at this point. Is
0:19
he really or no? I can't figure it out.
0:21
Obviously, these images have leaked. Let me squirm my
0:24
eyes so I don't get all the way in.
0:26
Apparently. That's why
0:28
Skit's like this. He's like, God forbid I see some
0:30
pussy. I might turn straight. Do we know if it's
0:32
him for real, though? I think he is gay. I'm
0:34
just now learning about this kid. But it seems like
0:36
he is gay. This is a real detective. I'm
0:39
just now learning. I'm gonna walk home over
0:41
here. Oh. That
0:45
shit is crazy, though, from what I thought I
0:47
saw. Al, you looked. Al, you
0:49
look. You just squished your eyes out. Why'd you put your hand
0:51
there? I'm trying so hard not to look. Just close your eyelids.
0:53
You don't have to put your hand there. Yeah. Just don't look
0:55
at it. Do we still? Do we know if it's him for
0:58
real, though? Is it possible when
1:00
he confirmed it and said that you're chill? He said, you
1:02
don't want your kid to be dead, son. I don't know.
1:04
We didn't even look into it. Why can't he be gay,
1:06
bro? Why can't he be gay, bro? That's my point. What's
1:08
wrong with him? I just want the truth. I just want
1:10
the truth. But what's wrong with him being gay? Nothing
1:13
I can think of. Why are you
1:15
fighting so hard for him being not gay? I just
1:17
want the truth. The truth is pretty clear. I mean,
1:19
you're saying a lot of truth. There's nine inches of
1:22
truth, right? I'm
1:24
just saying, bro. Yeah,
1:29
I'm sorry. Oh, my god.
1:32
Son. I bet you he needs a
1:34
shoulder to cry on. If you want to talk sketch, I'm here, bro.
1:36
Reach out. Die. Now you're fighting him to the
1:39
crib, bro. Reach out. We can talk. I'll cry.
1:41
If he's going through, what if he's going through
1:43
something right now? I don't know. I mean, he's
1:45
definitely going through something. It's probably very difficult for
1:47
him. Something's going through. But the truth shall shut
1:49
you free. The truth shall shut
1:51
you free. I
1:53
can't drink, Shablizz. Sketch, I don't know you, but it seems like
1:55
you're gay. That's OK. I
1:58
want you to be comfortable being that. There's a
2:00
kid. Nothing wrong with that. Yeah, be what you
2:02
are, dude. That's a beautiful thing. Fuck anybody who
2:04
judges you, Alex. Yeah, Alex was judging.
2:06
He calling you gay looking like this. Get out of
2:09
here. Nigga, I'm fly as fuck. Let
2:11
me ask you a serious question. Let me ask you
2:13
a serious question. Is your dick bigger than the one
2:15
sketch was sucking in them videos? Close.
2:18
Close? So close in which direction? I
2:20
think I might be bigger. Are
2:23
you... Yeah. Yo,
2:30
this is not funny, man. But we're taking Patreon
2:32
energy back into the beginning of the pod. No,
2:34
no, no, this is not going. They can't judge
2:36
us. No, it's not going. No. Because
2:38
really, it was already... We gotta go back to
2:40
the episode. We gotta go back to the episode.
2:42
But listen, free sketch in all ways. Like be
2:44
yourself. Yes. Play video games. You
2:47
know what I mean? Yeah. Don't stop streaming. Now
2:49
you're gonna make more money. Don't stop streaming. There's no
2:51
way. I can't... Why is that
2:53
no way? You and Mike don't want it to be true
2:56
so bad. Why did you let this kid be weird? Yo,
2:58
I want the truth. I can't be gay, man. I just
3:00
watched seven videos of him sucking dick. I would like to
3:02
believe that they're AI. In
3:04
actual videos of dick sucking that I just put
3:06
in my eyes to squint. Why? Why?
3:09
What do you mean, why? You don't
3:11
approve of what he's doing. He's probably meant like
3:13
emotional requiem. This is why I hope it's not
3:15
real. His whole world is crumbling. I genuinely hope
3:17
it's not real because the reason he said he
3:19
was doing is because he was fucked up on
3:22
drugs or did some whatever shit. That's awful, Al.
3:24
Yeah, and I would hope that a young boy
3:26
was not taken advantage of by some fucked up
3:28
people because of a drug addiction. Yeah. Well,
3:30
that was good. Well, that was good. I ain't got
3:32
a lot. That was good. Let's take it back in
3:34
there. We don't even got a funny cam for me
3:37
to look into. Miles, cue it up. There
3:39
you go. He was late. I guarantee you. I
3:41
know he was late. I was looking into the
3:43
camera. Miles switches three seconds later. I'm already looking
3:45
back at him around there. He's on the ring
3:48
cam in the front. I don't even know what
3:50
Miles is doing back there. Damn,
3:52
what a fucking... Back to the episode. We gotta
3:55
talk to Sketch, man. Shout out Sketch. I
3:57
hope you live your truth. Yes. If
4:00
you're gay, I hope you're gay. Yeah, brother.
4:05
Yeah, brother, yeah, brother, that's not encouraging.
4:08
What's that? Like the... No,
4:10
not. Let's get to... We're gonna go back
4:12
to the regular rest of the episode. Do
4:14
you think he has a manager that is
4:16
shrewd enough to be putting out
4:19
these narratives on the internet to
4:21
maintain relevance? Wait,
4:24
that he's gay? No, faking this. Like
4:26
putting AI images, saying that he used
4:28
to be an OnlyFans creator. Also, what
4:30
dude had to be the one that
4:32
admitted he found... You
4:34
know what I mean? Like you don't want to be the dude in
4:36
the friend group that's like, yo, yo, you heard sketches of him in
4:39
Gay OnlyFans? He just pretend somebody sent it. Oh, I just got sent
4:41
to me. I mean, who? Show us the DM.
4:44
Yeah, Mark, who sent this to you? Brother, it's Grand
4:46
Wizard. He's posting about it. Talk to him. Yeah,
4:49
it's true. Why does he still have it
4:51
activated? Is it activated or somebody just like...
4:53
No idea. You
4:55
tell us, Al. Is it activated? I
4:58
mean, if they're up, if people are finding them right
5:00
now, I would assume it's still activated. I got caught.
5:04
Oh, because I had to do research for the
5:06
part. You're gay. Did
5:10
you look at the pages and still up? There's no
5:12
way. He's probably making so much fucking money streaming. There's
5:14
no reason even due to gay porn. You do it
5:16
for the love of the game, bro. You really are.
5:19
Love the game clause, you know what I mean? Damn.
5:21
Let him go at it. There's no way. Why
5:24
is there no way? Let me tell you why.
5:26
Because last week, everybody was 100% convinced that
5:30
the prison porno was
5:33
real. Okay, there was, did
5:35
you see that one? Yeah, yeah, yeah. So this
5:37
girl's getting fucked, she's the CEO, she's getting fucked
5:39
by this guy in a prison in England, right?
5:42
And the other dude is filming on his phone
5:44
and everybody's like, oh my God, this girl has
5:46
a boyfriend or boyfriend's an MMA fighter. They have
5:48
a kid together and their family's gonna fall apart,
5:51
blah, blah, blah. And it just comes
5:53
out today that the whole thing is fake. Wow. So
5:55
it's like, is this the new thing? Might
5:59
be the new thing, yo. in
10:00
my car if you want to come right now. And she was a
10:02
rat looking girl. I do want to come right now. Yeah. I'm
10:04
so glad you brought that up. I was so turned on
10:07
by it. I was like, maybe I should give you that.
10:09
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. You should have. You
10:11
can't really be willing. And then it's like, no, while
10:13
she's doing it. Just to like throw her off. Yeah,
10:15
yeah, yeah. Yeah. Like, tour, update.

10:59

11:01
September, we're going to be on the road.
11:03
But in the meantime, I want to talk
11:05
about a chai shop that I invested in.
11:07
It's called Fontanous. I honestly have not found
11:09
good chai in New York until this. I
11:11
invested in it. My brother helps run it.
11:13
His name is Arjun Gupta. He's a fantastic
11:15
actor. Also married a wonderful woman from India
11:18
in Assam, where they have some of the best
11:20
chai in India, which is some of the best
11:22
chai drinker, biggest chai drinkers in the world. Guys,
11:24
Fontanous. It's in Dumbo at 28 J Street. You
11:28
know it's good because I invested in Dumbo
11:30
and I hate doing that. So go there.
11:32
A couple of people came through last week
11:34
who really appreciate y'all. They DM me, said
11:36
it was great. I appreciate that. I love
11:38
y'all. Thank y'all. Keep going. Fontanous. It's
11:41
F-O-N-T-A-I-N-H-A-S. There you go.
11:44
Fontanous. Let's get back
11:46
to the show. The gayest things we do in
11:48
straight sex. Exactly. When a guy
11:50
sees a handsome guy and goes, man, you must
11:52
get so much pussy. Yeah. People
11:54
will be saying, male comments will say
11:56
that to Mark as if that's not gay. Like instead of
11:58
just being like, yo, you're a good guy. Oh,
14:00
Shannon Sharpe. He killed. That was
14:02
51%. We look at a
14:05
picture of Shannon Sharpe's shirtless, like, just ass going crazy.
14:07
We just talking about Shannon Sharpe. We're like, yeah, his
14:09
show is hilarious. Like, this guy's killing him. And we
14:11
saw a picture of him without his shirt at 50-something
14:13
years old. He looks amazing. He looks like he's doing
14:15
this good shape. And we're like, man, this guy's in
14:17
great shape. I wish I looked like that. Volligos, man,
14:20
he must be crazy in bed. Oh,
14:22
no. No. What?
14:26
That's the percent. No. Wait.
14:28
Wait, what? That's
14:30
separate. He said, no, he must
14:32
be crazy. That's
14:36
it. That's it right there. What the fuck
14:38
is that about? That's crazy. Like, what positions
14:40
are you even thinking about, like, telling your
14:42
man to get ahead from the girl you're
14:44
both smashing? Like, is that
14:47
one of the positions? Because if you're saying being crazy,
14:49
but you're thinking of him on top, which is a
14:51
gayer way to think about him. You know what I'm
14:53
saying? But you're thinking about his dude as. No, I
14:55
don't think he's just thinking about positions. No, you are.
14:57
You're thinking about his dude as Flexim. That
14:59
dude as Flex is not a good look. That's gay,
15:01
bro. It's not a good look. We
15:03
look like dragons. You ever kid us something
15:06
with bears? You know what I'm talking about? You know what
15:08
a dragon got no ass? It's just
15:10
tail. Nah, man. That's what we, you
15:12
especially have. He's talking about Shannon Sharp, though. He looked
15:14
like he does some squats. What are you trying to
15:16
say? Probably look a little better. What are you trying
15:19
to say, yo? Shannon Sharp probably got some cheeks. But,
15:21
you know what I'm saying? He probably
15:24
cheeked up. Look, it looked like a
15:26
ball sack. No. No, that's
15:28
probably how I look. What? Oh my god.
15:32
That's what my ass looks like when I'm on
15:34
top. Guaranteed. Oh, god. That's exactly what my
15:36
ass looks like when I'm full thrust on top.
15:38
How crazy is that? I'm not even ashamed
15:40
that I need it. Who is that? That's Hank
15:42
Hill. That's Hank Hill. I got Hank. Bro, you
15:45
got Hank Hill. My ass look like Tom Brady's
15:47
chin. That's
15:49
how tiny my ass retracts. When I
15:51
go full thrust. That's straight ass. That's
15:54
a straight man's ass. Oh, you're saying that gay
15:56
guys got? Yeah. That's what I bark below. He's
15:58
smart for it. Mark 49 percent, no? No,
16:01
no, no, no, no. How you looking up, Mark 49 percent?
16:04
Almost up, Mark 49 percent. That's
16:06
crazy. How does he be working
16:08
on it, though? I'm not saying that. Sorry,
16:12
I don't know so much about gay guys.
16:16
Are you saying gay guys got bigger asses out?
16:19
What's up? I would think so. How often you
16:21
got to change the couches at WTF media studios
16:23
because you're gay dudes and you got to listen
16:25
up. Love shit's be crazy. That be stains on
16:27
the mofugas. They do butt munching. It's
16:30
crazy. Do the gay guys get calm on your
16:32
couch? No, no, no. I
16:34
hope not. I hope not. They
16:37
slurp it up. That's why it's called WTF, bro.
16:39
Yo, yo, yo, yo. Come
16:42
on, baby. What's
16:45
the hell going on right now? It's wild dog. What's
16:47
getting into him and what's not getting into him? Nah,
16:49
yeah, I'm just going crazy. I go to the studio.
16:51
She goes crazy. I got to get it
16:53
off me, bro. I'm
16:56
sorry. You know
16:58
what I'm saying? Every time
17:00
I see it because there's so many pods
17:02
that film at WTF, so you see a
17:04
lot of different pods there. There's a bunch
17:06
of badass bitches, just all badass bitches. And
17:09
I attribute everything to WTF. And
17:11
it's usually bad bitches talking about bad bitch things.
17:13
But every once in a while. Hey.
17:21
And I say this, I say, yo, WTF
17:23
is gay. That
17:25
shit is gay. That
17:30
shit is gay. Oh, god. So why is he
17:32
trying to hit me with so many facts in
17:34
my IG comments all the time? She got repaid
17:36
by the Democrats and some shit. Yeah, why are
17:38
you defending like that? Everything I posted, she said,
17:41
she got on quick with the abortion shit. She
17:43
was probably right about that one. But then I
17:45
posted something else. The Taylor shit she was on
17:47
right away. Oh, yeah, I posted something about the
17:49
Taylor. And she's like, oh, it's not exactly that.
17:52
Yeah, you said it was hard to find. She was like,
17:54
LOL, it's not hard to find. It's like, why you LOL
17:56
and preemptively bitch? What's the preemptive
17:58
LOL about? It's preemptively. She's
18:01
a Shade Room commenter, you know what I mean? They be
18:03
like, they be going in. They be going in. That's
18:05
just how they so love. I'm just a man, she's defending
18:08
the Swift like that. She's defending the Swifties. Yeah, I got
18:10
more tea on the Taylor shit side. Oh, that's a
18:12
couple. If y'all want to know, I know we're having fun
18:14
having gay talk, though, so I don't want to move off
18:16
of this shit. And
18:18
there's nothing straighter than four guys talking
18:20
about Taylor Swift. Yeah, it's a perfect
18:22
segue. You sure? Yes. I
18:25
don't know if this is the same tea I already
18:28
said, though. I'm being completely honest with you. It
18:32
might be a little warm. It might be a little warm. It
18:34
might be a little warm tea. It might be a little warm
18:36
tea. I'm back to shots. OK,
18:40
here's the tea. I
18:44
think, not
18:46
even, I'm going to give you
18:48
the information. OK, but this is
18:50
my presumption. I'm putting this out. I
18:54
think Taylor's team lied
18:56
to her to protect their jobs
18:59
after fumbling the biggest
19:01
deal in music history. And
19:03
I think she believed
19:06
the lie, because you'd rather believe your dad
19:08
didn't fuck you over, your
19:10
managers didn't fuck you over, your new record
19:13
exec didn't fuck you over. You'd rather believe
19:15
everybody around you that's there to protect you
19:17
didn't fuck you over and that these two
19:19
other dudes did. But
19:23
what's this based on? OK, so she
19:27
sends this. I actually got this fucking letter. So
19:29
she sends this. She
19:31
agrees to go to Universal, right, with this guy, Lucian
19:33
Grange guy. She agrees to go there. Lucian
19:37
tells her, as part of the deal, we're
19:39
going to give you back your masters, which
19:41
has never happened before in history. OK, but
19:44
he goes, you can't say anything to
19:47
Scott Borchetto, the guy who owns Big Machine. Because
19:49
if you say that it's going to happen,
19:52
then he's going to charge me out the fucking ass. And
19:54
then it doesn't even make sense. So
19:56
I need you to tell him you don't
19:58
even want them. Because
20:00
if you say you don't want the masters,
20:03
then I can get them for a good amount.
20:05
There's not gonna be this, ideally, not this crazy
20:07
bidding war. Mm-hmm. Right? Now, I don't know if
20:09
Lucian is telling her that, but the deal is,
20:11
is it under the table, hush
20:13
deal, that she's gonna get the masters? As
20:16
part of this thing, this has never happened before in music. She
20:19
sends a text that's public domain, you can go look at
20:21
it right now, matter of fact, I might have it, that
20:24
Big Machine put it up on their fucking
20:26
website. So she sends this text, right? And
20:29
the text is to Scott Borchetta,
20:31
right? Mm-hmm. The text
20:33
reads as this, you ready?
20:36
Okay, Scott, I hope
20:39
this finds you well. Since communication ran
20:41
dry on our negotiations, I've done what
20:43
I told you I would do and
20:45
gone out exploring other options. Owning my
20:47
masters was very important to me, but
20:49
I've since realized that there are things
20:52
that mean even more to me in
20:54
the bigger picture. I had a
20:56
choice whether to bet on my past, whether
20:58
to bet on the future, and I think knowing
21:01
me, you can guess which one I chose. I
21:03
also saw a rare opportunity to affect positive change
21:05
for a lot of other artists with the leverage
21:08
I have right now. I know you believe in
21:10
the same things that I do. I'd like to
21:12
think that you would be proud of what I've
21:14
negotiated for in my deal. That's the new one
21:16
with Universal. I wanted to tell
21:18
you first that I'll be signing with Lucien,
21:20
Universal. I honestly truly cherish everything you and
21:22
I have built together, and I plan on
21:24
saying so in my announcement of
21:27
the new deal. What
21:29
we accomplish together will be a lasting legacy
21:31
and a case study on excellent partnerships and
21:33
may it continue. I still view you as
21:35
a partner and friend and I hope you
21:38
feel the same, sending you a hug and
21:40
my most sincere gratitude and so much love,
21:42
Taylor. Political, brilliant,
21:44
authentic, beautiful. Beautiful message.
21:48
I'm good on the masters. She
21:54
says she's gonna go to the set of place. Okay.
21:59
Scooter. comes in and goes, hold
22:01
on, she's not buying the Masters? Hey,
22:04
I'd like to buy the Masters. Tell
22:06
Scott Prochetta, hey, if she wants to be involved
22:08
in this, pull her in. Scott
22:11
Prochetta sends him that text message. She
22:14
doesn't want to be part of it. Universal
22:18
is trying to buy the Masters for 270 million dollars. Assuming
22:23
in that situation that if you're Lucian and you're
22:25
invested in her future, you also want to be
22:27
invested in her past. Makes perfect sense. Scooter's
22:30
like 270. Shit, I'll do it
22:33
for more. He doesn't know that the plan is
22:35
to give the Masters. This has never happened before
22:37
in fucking history. Give Masters. He
22:40
goes, I'll buy them for more than that. What does
22:42
Scott Prochetta want to do more than anything? Fuck the
22:44
most money. Fuck that guy. I'm not going to give
22:47
you... Make the most money, one, but I'm also not
22:49
going to give the Masters to the guy who stole
22:51
the most valuable client I will ever have in the
22:53
history of my business. And
22:55
I'm going to give them? Fuck that. I got
22:57
another one for more money and I get to
23:00
stuff it to that motherfucker. I
23:03
don't get why Universal thought that would work. Like,
23:06
I don't know what their calculation was. It was like, oh, we'll
23:08
buy it from the guy that's mad at her. This is why
23:10
I have a little empathy for what Taylor thought. Her
23:14
team fucked up the greatest record deal in
23:16
history. The greatest record
23:18
deal in history, you have to lock that in
23:20
before she goes. You have to lock in the
23:22
deal for 270. They didn't
23:24
lock in that deal. I think Taylor thought that it
23:27
was locked in. I think her team, all to save
23:29
their own asses, said it
23:31
was. And then Scooter and Scott, they
23:33
fucking back channeled and they stole it
23:35
from us. Because
23:38
if they say what really happened, which is
23:40
what the email correspondence is show, that their
23:42
team didn't have a fucking deal, they fucked
23:44
up. And these guys made one to stuff
23:46
it, stick it to, or to stick it
23:48
to Universal. So
23:51
the team is in fucking desperation mode. They're
23:53
all going to be fired. We
23:55
fucked up the biggest deal in music history.
23:58
The biggest artist in history. first six
24:00
albums, we fucked it up. We
24:03
gotta have a scapegoat. What's a
24:05
scapegoat? Scott Prochetta, Scooter Braun. What
24:08
sticks? Scooter Braun. And
24:12
then what happens is once the narrative already exists, it's
24:14
like House of Dragons, it's like, okay,
24:18
I don't wanna go back against this. I
24:20
imagine it's come to light. I imagine Taylor
24:22
now probably knows what really happens. I mean,
24:24
fairly quickly, big machine put out
24:26
those text messages, here's the correspondence, here's everything.
24:28
But once the narrative's set, you just run
24:30
with those narratives. And it's a
24:33
great narrative. It continues the victimhood narrative,
24:35
right? So it's like everything's kind of
24:37
perfect and you just wanna look the other way and you
24:39
wanna drive as fast as you possibly can. The
24:41
only problem is, you know,
24:44
some fucked up shit ends up having a Scooter's family,
24:46
the death threats, her telling her fans, go tell them
24:48
how you feel and then these fucking lunatics go start
24:50
with it. This is what I still don't love is
24:53
at the end of the documentary, Taylor's team, they ask her
24:55
for comment, she's like, we'd like to move on from this.
24:57
I bet you would. I
25:00
see mad comments on the post that we put up.
25:02
Taylor wants to move on from this, she wants nothing
25:04
to do with this, this is in her past. When
25:06
has she ever let anything go? You know what I
25:08
mean? She talked about
25:10
Kanye for fucking years when she was
25:12
the victim, when somebody else is a
25:14
victim and she wants, guys, why are
25:16
we carbon on the back? This
25:19
is old news, this is going. And that is
25:21
the thing that I'm like, yo, I can give
25:24
her the benefit of the doubt to a larger
25:26
degree. That is funny though. That all of a
25:28
sudden when you win a billion
25:30
dollars, now, we need to focus
25:32
on the past. This guy's life got threatened, I got
25:34
nothing to do with that, even though you actively called
25:36
for it. If you, yo, you
25:38
can't tell me Trump called for
25:41
insurrection or whatever
25:43
and Taylor didn't call for this guy's family to
25:45
get threatened. That's a great argument. You can't believe,
25:47
you gotta either believe, none believe both. That's a
25:49
great argument. Stand down
25:51
and stand by is actually softer than
25:53
tell them how you feel. Yeah, that's
25:56
rush to capital. She
25:58
said rush to capital. She said storm that bitch. But
26:00
it's interesting that she talks so much about the patriarchy
26:02
and the power of the patriarchy and she's behaving a
26:05
lot like it. That is a dude, that is a
26:07
thing that drives me crazy. And I say this about
26:09
minorities all the time when we just wanna. Still best
26:11
concert I've ever seen, I just wanna point that out.
26:13
That would never take anything away from me. She's a
26:15
historically great artist. Amazing. Anybody's
26:18
trying to say otherwise, you're lying to yourselves. But.
26:21
And her team knows that and they know they
26:23
fucked up. And I presume they fucking lied to
26:25
her and then she ran with it. And she's
26:27
too embarrassed to acknowledge she ran with it. And
26:29
she might even believe it. But there's
26:32
proof of what really happened. There's email
26:34
correspondence. It's all out there. Like
26:36
all the truth is out there. But people would
26:38
rather believe the lie that's more interesting. Which is
26:41
the girl got taken advantage of by these evil
26:43
record execs. No, your fucking
26:45
team fucked up. Your daddy who's on the
26:47
board fucked up. The lawyer, your daddy appointed
26:49
to look at every email just so he
26:52
can't, he fucked up. Everything is there. His
26:54
dad is responding to emails. What is it,
26:56
Scott Swift? Her dad. Sorry, her
26:58
dad is responding to emails. There's screenshots
27:01
of this shit. It's all out there. It's
27:03
the most obvious fucking thing in music history
27:05
that nobody talks about or cares about because
27:07
she's so famous. And just being famous and
27:09
successful doesn't mean that you should allow to
27:11
accept these fucking narratives. Now, I feel
27:13
bad for Scooter or not, that guy's a fucking billionaire. He did
27:15
great. He's doing awesome. Okay, but
27:18
he also does have to deal with a large
27:20
swath of the world thinking that he did something
27:22
which he did not do that might go against
27:24
his character. And that's fucked up.
27:27
Imagine if people just thought you did some shit that
27:29
you did not do. Absolutely. It would annoy
27:31
you, rub you the wrong way a little bit. And if
27:33
your family's getting threatened, you want to dislike
27:35
the guy cool, but if your family's getting
27:37
threatened, it's just a different ballgame. It just
27:39
is. The second you bring family into it,
27:41
you cross a fucking line, everybody knows this.
27:43
You bring wife, you bring kids. They just
27:45
started talking about children. That's some demonic shit
27:47
you bring kids into something. You know what
27:49
I mean? I'm curious, do you know if
27:52
Universal changed a deal since they weren't
27:54
able to get by the Masters?
27:56
Because I'm sure that was the
27:58
carrot that got tailored. It's
28:00
an absolutely phenomenal
28:02
question now. Sorry, what'd you
28:05
say? This is a great fucking question. Because
28:07
I'm sure the big pull to
28:09
get Taylor to sign the universal was, hey, we're going to
28:11
buy your masters and give it to you. Now that they
28:13
couldn't attain her master, did they give her a different deal?
28:16
That would be, we got
28:19
to find that out. Coming to you
28:21
next week. That because
28:23
if they do change the deal and
28:26
add more upside or incentivize in some
28:28
new way, they acknowledge
28:30
that they had this pre-existing
28:32
thing. Whoa.
28:35
Because why would Taylor accept
28:37
the same deal and lose out on $300
28:39
million worth of music rights? And that's in
28:42
perpetuity. It's $300 million then. Now who knows
28:44
what the fuck it's worth? Bruh.
28:48
Hmm. And
28:51
was there a contract she signed with
28:53
universal before the masters got put through? Or is
28:55
that just like in talks? I don't know. That's
28:57
the thing I'd want to know. Because
28:59
she was being offered by Big Machine a way
29:02
to get her masters back through making more albums
29:04
or just buy it back herself. She had like,
29:06
I don't know, a few hundred million at the
29:08
time and it would liquidate her essentially to buy
29:10
back the masters. So I'm sure, reasonably
29:12
so, you're hesitating. Though
29:15
you could get a loan to get your shit back. You're one of
29:17
the biggest artists in the world. Doesn't matter. It's way
29:19
better when some other company's like, we're going to get it back
29:21
for you. Now, do we want to get really nasty with it? If
29:24
we want to get really nasty with it, what
29:27
if they promised it to her? Knowing
29:30
full well. Wow. They didn't really
29:32
care that much to get her the
29:34
masters. They were going to low ball, see if they
29:36
could get them. If they couldn't get them, who gives
29:38
a fuck? We got this Taylor girl and you know
29:41
what she's going to do? Mark, what do you think
29:43
she's going to do? I think she's
29:45
going to make some more albums. I think she's going to make a
29:47
lot of money. And not only will she make some more albums, maybe
29:50
she'll rerecord those
29:53
original ones that
29:55
we don't have the rights to. You think they knew that
29:57
though? I'm just
29:59
saying. what is cheaper if
30:01
you rerecord them galvanize your fans
30:03
based on this bullshit narrative that
30:05
they should go out there and
30:08
now she can get
30:10
the money from them you get the money from
30:12
them you didn't have to lose the 300 million in
30:15
the first place it's almost now we're
30:17
getting real conspiratorial and I have no proof for any
30:19
of this but it's a way better deal if
30:21
you ask me for Universal
30:24
you save 270 million
30:26
dollars and you still get all the fucking albums so
30:29
she did get screwed over by music executives but
30:32
it was the other ones and I imagine she's
30:35
either too embarrassed or doesn't truly know what really
30:37
happened to admit it because you don't want to
30:39
go I went to Universal and all these men
30:41
fucked me and I'm staying here
30:45
and you gotta stay because you signed that fucking
30:47
contract hmm can you check if
30:49
the new re-recorded albums are under Universal I'm
30:51
sure she owns the complete masters for them
30:54
but I imagine that what
30:56
is it I don't know how I don't know how
30:58
record deals work we're like sometimes distribution yeah
31:00
I think Universal still has the distribution on it let's look
31:02
at them but if she owns like all the rights
31:05
masters for that's kind of the
31:08
smoking gun right there because she
31:11
signed to a label she's putting out
31:13
a new album that should
31:16
automatically go to the label labels
31:18
should automatically own the rights well I'm sure the
31:20
deal that she had was like she gets to
31:22
keep her masters in perpetuity all of them oh
31:25
you think even the new albums I would imagine
31:27
I would imagine she might be that I think
31:29
Universal what his theory is and I don't know
31:31
I think we're giving her a lot
31:33
of benefit of the doubt but I'm fine doing that because her fans scare
31:35
me I think what he's
31:37
saying is Universal is like hey you know what
31:40
why don't you just rerecord your albums
31:42
and you'll keep those masters we know we
31:44
fucked up you rerecord the albums you keep
31:46
the masters they're all yours you didn't have to pay
31:48
for them they're yours but they still
31:50
get the distribution so they still want they didn't have
31:53
to pay for the masters and you know what you
31:55
know what Akash you know what they were gonna get
31:57
for the low six albums earlier just
31:59
the distribution Yeah. So now
32:01
you get the distribution and you save $300
32:04
million. Yeah. If
32:06
that is what happened. And even if
32:08
the real asshole here is this
32:10
guy, Lucian and Scooter is getting all the fucking heat. And
32:14
we could throw you an extra 100 million Taylor. Just,
32:17
we fucked up, I'm sorry. And
32:19
we're still, now we've made things right with you
32:21
and we're still saving $100 million. I
32:23
wouldn't say Lucian's an asshole. He's just a
32:26
smart business man. So are we
32:28
afraid of him as well? Or is it just Swifties?
32:31
What I'm saying is, no, no, what I'm saying is
32:33
this. He's a smart business man. No, no, what I'm
32:35
saying is this is, fuck
32:37
that guy. You know what I
32:40
mean? Hey, hey, hey, ready? Fuck that
32:42
guy. Fucking over the Swifties like that.
32:44
Oh, how dare he? Fuck
32:46
over Taylor and Swifties. They didn't know any better.
32:48
What a jerk. They can do, pfft. What a
32:51
jerk. I'm a Swiftie. I'm a fuck over the
32:53
Swifties. I got my friendship, brother. There it is.
32:56
Let's go. Swiftie gang. In
32:58
a sense, her new contract with Republic Records
33:00
gives her complete ownership of her songs and
33:02
therefore Taylor's version was born. I
33:05
don't know if Republic and Universal are the
33:07
same. Maybe Republic is within Universal or something.
33:09
And its complete ownership include distribution? I
33:11
think you still need a distributor. So
33:14
they'll get this distribution rights, which is the only thing they're gonna
33:16
fucking get anyway and they save $270 million. And
33:19
nobody's talking about it. Because
33:21
the narrative that she has is so fucking sexy.
33:23
If you were a young girl, you got your
33:26
heart broken a million fucking times, you
33:28
have guys manipulate you, treat you like shit. Why the
33:31
fuck would you wanna believe that things were happening in
33:33
good faith? Also music executives historically
33:35
don't have the best track record. So it's
33:37
an easy person to jump on. Of course.
33:39
Yeah. Absolutely. Okay.
33:44
I want. Fucking scooter. Yeah. Fucking
33:47
scooter. Okay. I
33:50
wonder if it affected his business in any way where
33:52
artists were like, oh, if I work here, is
33:54
it gonna, you know, am I gonna lose my masters or whatever? It
33:57
did affect his bottom line in some way. Ellucian.
33:59
No, Scooter, in the long term. I
34:02
wonder if artists were like, hesitant and had to be
34:04
explained the whole story. I would assume, yes. Like
34:07
if I was a new artist signing with him, would
34:09
I be like, oh, could this backfire? Because her narrative
34:11
is so compelling. Like I wonder if there's any verifiable
34:13
way he could prove that it affected his work. And
34:15
then he had to go all the way to Korea.
34:18
He had to go all the way to Korea where
34:20
they can't even pronounce Taylor Swift. Exactly. That's
34:23
what he had to do. They forced him to go to
34:25
fucking Korea to make boy bands. What are they? Boys,
34:28
yeah. They're boy bands. This
34:31
is disgusting what they've done to this poor man. Or
34:33
if you want to be an artist that's associated with
34:35
Scooter who has beef with the
34:37
biggest artists in the world. Right. That
34:40
definitely fucked up his bottom line. Because other people would.
34:42
I think he got a Sue Taylor Swift. I
34:45
mean. You ain't gonna win
34:47
that one. Sorry, Swift. You suck. I
34:50
get a little zen in the system and I start
34:52
saying crazy shit. I think at the end of the
34:54
day, everybody's happy. Yeah.
35:00
We just want to pee. Yo, she's hot. We
35:03
are so removed from music. And we're still
35:05
afraid of the Swifties, yo. We are so
35:08
removed. Listen,
35:11
Swifties, free your girl from the
35:13
real music execs that are fucking
35:15
her over. Her dad, Lucian. What
35:19
does Lucian look like? She's over this. I think
35:22
she wants to move on. She wants to move
35:24
on. I think she wants to move on. She
35:26
wants to move on, make billions of dollars. Yeah,
35:28
let's move on. Why we been bringing up this
35:30
T? I went to the concert. What's up about
35:32
something relevant, like when Kanye stole her popcorn award?
35:34
Yeah, shit matters. That was fucked up. That shit
35:36
matters. That space trophy or whatever. That was a
35:38
whole game. That was traumatizing. That
35:40
was a shit. I know. That's horrible.
35:42
Remember when I went to that concert? You want to know who
35:45
got me tickets to that shit? Scoot them
35:47
wrong. So
35:51
I just heard something insane. You know, Netflix
35:53
has over 18,000 titles globally, but
35:56
only 6,000 are available to us
35:58
in the U.S. So we are... literally missing
36:00
out on thousands of great shows, 12,000
36:03
or more to be exact, and let's use
36:05
ExpressVPN. Tons of people spend over $100 a
36:07
month on streaming services, Netflix, Disney+,
36:09
Prime, blah, blah, blah. But if you can
36:11
ExpressVPN, you can cut back to just Netflix,
36:13
maybe one or two others if you want,
36:16
save so much every month. I'll explain how.
36:18
Like I said, Netflix hides content from you
36:20
based on which country you're in. So in
36:22
the US, you only have access to about
36:24
a third of their actual library, but with
36:26
ExpressVPN, you can change your online location to
36:28
a country where say the access isn't restricted,
36:31
and you can get way more TV shows, movies,
36:33
et cetera. They got servers in over 100 countries, so
36:36
you can gain access to thousands of new
36:38
shows and never run out of stuff to watch.
36:40
I've used it in the US to watch
36:42
Friends on Netflix, to watch Modern Family on
36:44
Netflix, and I've used it when I travel abroad.
36:46
I was doing shows in Europe during football season.
36:48
You know how I accessed good old
36:50
American football? I accessed the
36:52
American VPN, and there you go. Guys,
36:55
sign up for ExpressVPN. It's easy to
36:57
use. Fire up the app, click on one
36:59
button to change locations. It works on
37:01
phones, laptops, smart TVs, and more. And

let's get back to the show. Alex does pretend
37:26
to be a rapper. Have you ever heard this? This is a
37:28
true story. Alex does
37:30
pretend to be a rapper. Please tell me. He likes
37:32
to get rap clout. Please tell me. Alex told me
37:34
in confidence, and he said, don't tell him, as I
37:36
said, I never will. But I'll tell you guys privately.
37:39
Basically, sometimes when he flies Delta
37:41
One, he intentionally puts on some chains and some rings
37:43
and some sunglasses. He sent us on Patreon. To be
37:46
a rapper. That way people see him and they go,
37:48
oh, this guy must be a rapper. So he's trying
37:50
to double dip on the rap clout and the podcast
37:52
clout. I hope you get pulled over. I
37:55
hope you get pulled over. That's a death threat. That's a
37:57
death threat. Yeah. That was a death threat.
38:00
No, it's in my block. Not in every city.
38:02
I hope you get inconvenienced by this. When I
38:04
drive, all this is off. And
38:06
I'm like, come on. That's just it. Come on, man.
38:09
You got to sweat it, chow it. I ain't never
38:11
like coughing. Yeah, stop it. Come on, man. You got
38:13
to know when to show them and know when to
38:15
fold them, bro. Yes, absolutely. That
38:17
is. He loves white people asking him
38:19
on Delta I. Like, so what kind of industry are you
38:21
on? You just see the looks. You just get the looks.
38:24
And I know they're trying to figure it out in the
38:26
head. It's like, oh, what black guy is this? It's
38:30
fun. It's fun. White because they're trying
38:32
to understand why you can afford to be in
38:34
Delta I. That's racist. Yeah, it is. Racism.
38:37
You could sell drugs. Yeah,
38:39
you could be a basketball player. Yeah, there's tons
38:41
of things white people can do. All right, we're
38:43
not basketball. Yeah, but no. If I
38:45
saw a white guy with a bunch of tattoos and goofy-ass clothes and
38:48
a grill, I'd be like, what the fuck is this white boy doing?
38:50
Yeah, he'll look like Lil' Mom. Just
38:52
shut up, Mom. Yo, Mambu checked
38:54
out. How do you check me? Mambu
38:56
checked out? I didn't even know I was really scary.
38:58
I was scary. You're really scary, dude.
39:00
I didn't even know I was him. I thought
39:03
you were joking, calling this white kid a change
39:05
blow by. Yo, the greatest drill rapper in New
39:07
York history was out in the Hamptons, pulled up
39:09
with his pops. We chilling at
39:11
the party, July 4th. And,
39:13
uh. No, so gangster him to pull up with
39:15
his pops. Pulled up with his pops. Yeah, his pops.
39:17
I'm more afraid of Mambu's pops than him. Mambu's
39:19
big Mambu's a little scary. And
39:22
he goes, yo, wasn't that the kid over there that said
39:24
I'm a culture vulture? And then I
39:26
was like, ow. And I swear, Al Turner out the
39:28
corner of his eye saw Mambu and then
39:31
couldn't hear me. I had to yell his name three
39:33
more times. I was like, yo, didn't you call Mambu
39:35
culture vulture? And Al just started laughing like that and
39:37
then ran down the yard to go play spike ball.
39:39
Yes, son. My dog's a big culture vulture. You really
39:42
are? He tried to play spike ball. Watch after Cece
39:44
with my little cute dog. He tried to beat me.
39:46
He tried to steal spike ball from the whites. Culture
39:48
ball. Oh, I'm nice. No, we're not getting done. Don't
39:51
let him out spike ball. No, no, no, no. I
39:53
was busting ass in spike ball. Don't let him out
39:55
the white boy beef. OK, so what happened in your
39:57
interaction when Mambu checked you? I honestly
39:59
thought you were a bitch. Making a joke. I did
40:01
not think that was my boo. What do you think
40:03
it was? Just a white guy pretending to be black
40:10
All right, and then when he rolled up and he checked
40:12
you he brought the tool out Yeah, it was crazy when
40:14
he went for the ice cream and shit like that. I'm
40:16
still Wasn't my boo and
40:18

42:44

42:46
Hey, before you peeking this
42:49
thing, I'll just put your watch for it. She
42:52
was next to a duck hanging on a tree. So
42:55
we're out there, right? And bro,
42:58
I'm so excited for this week. We
43:00
figured everything out. The boys are coming
43:02
out. I'm so excited, right? I
43:07
set up paddle every single day for us. Every
43:10
single morning we got paddle set up,
43:12
whatever. I get out there, I think
43:14
Monday night, Tuesday, I'm like, all
43:16
right, let me play some paddle. The boys are gonna come
43:18
in Wednesday, Thursday. Let me just get a game or two
43:20
in so I can get warm for them and bust that
43:22
ass. Tuesday,
43:25
I play
43:28
first game. It
43:30
was either Tuesday or Wednesday, I play, I turn my
43:32
back in one way, back is gone. I'm like, all
43:34
right, back is gone. I go
43:36
back, it's literally, my hips went this way,
43:42
my back went this way and I'm
43:44
out for two weeks. Okay, so I go, okay,
43:47
my back is fucking gone. I can barely breathe.
43:49
It's really bad. It's the beginning of a
43:51
two hour game. I can't quit in this fucking game. Within
43:53
three minutes of my back,
43:56
I jump up in the air to hit a ball. I
43:58
come down and I can't jump as. as I used
44:00
to but my ankles don't know that yet. So I jumped
44:02
and my feet kind of went like this. Thinking
44:04
we were gonna be in the air longer. I
44:06
came down, boom, immediately spraying the fuck out
44:09
of my ankle, my ankle's gone, back gone,
44:11
ankle gone. Okay? He
44:15
was so sad bro. He was so
44:17
sad, never seen him this sad. I'm fixing it.
44:20
That's me kid. Sorry, I'm hobbling back
44:22
bro. What happened? I'm hobbling back. Why
44:24
is this so? That
44:26
was when his back went. That was when
44:28
his back went. Oh, he's actually. That
44:32
was an actual photograph. This is
44:34
Chelsea's back. Oh, so much. I
44:37
was heartbroken. I was heartbroken. I
44:39
showed up, my wife, y'all know my wife don't
44:41
like it when I'm sick or I'm hurt.
44:44
She's an amazing woman. She's incredible. She supports me
44:46
with everything I do. But if I get sick
44:48
or hurt, she act like I act with her.
44:54
So she was like two hours, absolutely
44:56
phenomenal. Get me anything I needed to get. That
44:59
time runs out fast. Two hours and one minute.
45:02
I asked for her to get like some Tylenol
45:04
or something. I remember she was like,
45:06
didn't you already take it? And
45:09
the second she said that shit, I was like, oh, it's gonna be a
45:11
long week. It's gonna be
45:13
a long motherfucking week. I
45:15
couldn't move for the rest of the fucking week.
45:17
Everything's ruined. Okay, just for me, I'm heartbroken. I'm
45:19
sad. I just want to let,
45:21
we're setting the table. The boys come out,
45:24
resurgence of energy. It's getting exciting. Take
45:27
it away. Wait,
45:29
what? Just take it away. What
45:34
the fuck? You started this guy. Did
45:36
I know that? What is taking away?
45:38
I think he thought he still used
45:40
to interrupt. Take it away. He's like,
45:43
yo, I'm electric finishes, but let me.
45:55
I done come here popcorn the whole time. What
45:58
is this? Everybody
46:01
has to tell us the end of the story. You
46:03
said, take it away. Oh, that is funny. No, no,
46:05
that was it. That is hilarious. We tried to game
46:07
of Thrones us. He gave us three books and said,
46:09
take it away. What
46:11
the fuck? Can't game of Thrones your
46:13
own story. Fuck y'all. Finish
46:16
the series. Oh, now do it, buddy. We need
46:18
book five. It's Thursday.
46:21
Oh, it's Thursday. Yo, can I be
46:23
honest with you? Can I be honest with you? I started
46:25
telling y'all, I love you too. I started telling y'all about
46:27
Twi-Twist and my ankle hurt my back. I got sad. I
46:30
couldn't even think about what else I wanted to tell you.
46:32
No. No, you really
46:34
weren't sad. I really was hard broke. I felt
46:36
bad. You were like, God, take it away. I
46:38
was, bro, I kept telling people about it. And
46:40
I would look over my shoulder and look at
46:43
my wife looking at me stank for even talking
46:45
about my ankle and back hurting, bro. I
46:48
tried to reach for something. And I was like,
46:50
oh, my back hurts. I saw my wife giggling
46:52
at me with your meal. I
46:55
go, are you laughing at me? She
46:58
goes, Jamil's laughing. I go, he could laugh.
47:01
We built up three decades of laughing at
47:03
our pain. You've
47:05
got to be here for me during this period in
47:07
our lives. But how much longer did you play after
47:09
you got injured? Two hours. Two hours after the injury.
47:12
Because I was warm and I knew that was the
47:14
last time I was probably going to be able to
47:16
play the title ever. That's a good point. Do you
47:18
think you exacerbated the injury? Yes. Mark, my ankle still
47:20
doesn't work. You said take it away. Ask
47:22
him interesting questions. Not with girl logic.
47:26
God damn it. You didn't get the win. Did
47:29
you win? We actually did
47:31
one one time. But it doesn't matter. We're not
47:34
counting that. It was an overall net loss. But
47:37
anyway, the boys came out and we had a great time. And
47:39
Dove was in adult Disney World. He found his Brazilian girls and
47:41
he was just on fucking fire. How did Dove and Harry, your
47:43
injury? Because we had all these games set up and he also
47:45
didn't play. Oh, do
47:47
you think that he had a reason for that, maybe?
47:50
I don't know. He said he was also injured. I got injured.
47:53
What are you going to say? How'd you what? It's not
47:55
contagious. How'd you get his injury? He
47:57
could dance every fucking night. I know he was out till five.
47:59
5 a.m. 5 a.m. What
48:02
you get injured doing? Back strokes? The fuck?
48:05
Not receiving? It just happens. We're
48:07
playing a lot of paddle. It's too much.
48:09
But did you have fun? You had fun out there?
48:12
Phenomenal. We all happy still. Talk about the...
48:15
Dove, your voice sounds, uh, hoarse. A
48:17
little raspy. We
48:19
all still have Molly in our system. Oh
48:21
yeah, they were doing so much fucking Molly. Bro,
48:23
it's also funny, like... But this
48:25
is one thing that I... He's got a little
48:28
hit. He just did
48:30
his... He said the word and started
48:32
licking your fingers. That
48:35
was Pavlonia, bro. That
48:38
was Pavlonia, bro. That's crazy. That was
48:40
pops and Friday. Yeah, it wasn't even great. You feel
48:42
salt in your mouth? That was...
48:44
That was absolutely crazy, bro. Yo,
48:49
I gotta say, after this weekend, I do have some friends with
48:51
some drug problems. I do, man. And by friends, I mean I
48:53
have one friend with a real
48:56
drug problem, bro. You know you got a
48:58
friend with a drug problem when the rest of your friends
49:00
are like, Yo, this dude's an asshole. Yeah, what the fuck?
49:02
Yeah. Yeah, let me tell you
49:04
something. We got a whore friend who is an
49:06
ass... Bro... Nah,
49:09
I got two friends. Balla's
49:11
one of them, but he's not the one I'm talking about.
49:13
That was my first guess, man. No, it wasn't. It
49:16
wasn't Balla, but it was funny because Balla must have been
49:18
on some coke or some shit because some people came
49:20
up to me like, Hey, we're at the MSG show, and,
49:22
you know, the
49:25
show was great, and that was really so thoughtful, the video at
49:27
the end, and Balla was right next to me. You know me,
49:29
like, I want to give people credit for making the show. I
49:31
was like, Yo, Balla... I was like, this is
49:33
the guy who made the video, right? I
49:36
go, this is the guy who made the video. Balla
49:38
turns around, he goes... The heartwarming
49:40
video of your family? Yeah,
49:44
and then look at him, it's like, I was so
49:46
beautiful with the baby and everything like that. He didn't
49:48
say a single word. He went... They
49:52
finished complimenting you? And
49:54
then he just went like this. Oh
50:00
my God! Oh
50:02
my God! His body don't look like a
50:05
typewriter, bro. He was like, Oh, that's a
50:07
good thing. It was the
50:09
mask, bro. It was scary. There it was going.
50:11
Dang, it was going. Oh my God, bro. Oh
50:13
my God. No,
50:16
we had a fun barbecue. There we go. Great
50:18
barbecue. It was fun. We had a lot of
50:21
drugs at this party. You surprised us with a
50:23
Frollo truck. Oh yeah, that was all. I was
50:25
all at my house. Emma did a nice job
50:27
with that. That was so sweet. We went to
50:29
this fucking rich ass party, bro. Oh. Here's
50:32
the thing. The
50:36
final night? The final night, we
50:38
went to this rich, it's like the
50:40
July 4th party, whatever. We
50:42
can't jump to the final night. Oh, where were we
50:45
at? The party got kicked out of. Oh yeah. I
50:48
didn't mean to get kicked out. No
50:51
one ever means anything. I didn't mean to get
50:53
kicked out. I walked out of the door and
50:57
I didn't know you couldn't leave out of that door. They
50:59
were open. They were open. I opened the door. And they were like, you
51:01
can't leave out the door. And I'm like, well, I'm already out. You want
51:03
me to go back in and close the door? And then there was a
51:05
whole day. It's not a big deal. We don't got to talk about that.
51:09
I think we worked it out. I think we figured all the things
51:11
out. You got back in and
51:13
you actually kicked out. No, no, no. It was
51:15
a stalemate. It was
51:17
a stalemate. It was a stalemate. But
51:20
he went in the car and left. I left.
51:22
He's already leaving. Yeah, I left. You
51:24
can't find me. No, no, we left. We left. We got to
51:26
leave with the boy. He got kicked out. I
51:29
didn't do anything wrong. I didn't do anything wrong. Yeah. I'm
51:32
making sure they left with you. Is that good? I'm making sure
51:34
they left with you. Listen, none of us were feeling anything. Miles
51:36
got kicked out right after. Miles got kicked out for
51:39
mixing girls' drinks. This is so stupid.
51:42
Don't do that. Fucking maniac this guy is. Oh,
51:44
I'm nice, Miles. All my friends are gay. Yeah,
51:46
you learned some tricks from them, didn't you? No,
51:49
no, no. He was grabbing random drinks and just
51:51
mixing them together like he had some fucking Molly or something in
51:53
the drink. And a girl was like, what are you doing on
51:55
my drink? And immediately, whoop, whoop, get
51:58
the fuck out of here. That was easy. Dropping
52:00
and I needed a little bit more like bar
52:02
dropping my right Dropping
52:05
and I got it's like to look busy like I
52:07
worked there So I started cleaning up a table and
52:10
I was pouring all the drinks into one drink and
52:12
then they didn't like what? How is
52:14
it better? Dropping
52:19

52:47
20 drinks or half drinking and I just started
52:49

I had a friend they got a real drug I
53:02
Know miles drugs Miles
53:05
do not try any girls. Okay, we
53:08
go to we go. Whatever fine. We have
53:10
a lovely dinner this
53:12
restaurant in downtown sack Harbor
53:14
and Phenomenal
53:17
great food great night and
53:21
Then we go to this party. Okay, and
53:24
the party is this like very fancy
53:26
This is like the culminating event of
53:29
the weekend and we're
53:31
getting loose But
53:33
the dance floor is kind of I'll be honest with you.
53:35
It was mid No one's
53:37
really like everybody's there but kind of like they're aware
53:40
that they're being looked at we go mark. Not sure
53:42
another boss I That
53:54
party was so hard to get into it was like
53:56
unbelievable I don't even know how dub pulled it off between
53:58
YouTube like we all got in and There's a
54:00
group like eight of us. There's a line around
54:02
the block. Cops are showing up. The street is
54:04
shut down. It's four knocks. Impossible to get into.
54:07
And as we're getting in, there's this beautiful girl
54:10
comes up to me and she's like, hey, I
54:12
really need help getting in. All my friends are
54:14
in there. And this girl's a 10,
54:16
a beautiful girl. And I was like, oh, yeah,
54:18
well, I'm so glad you asked. Miles
54:20
is walking up right now. I was like, this is
54:22
your guy. Hold on one second. Sorry, sorry, sorry. The
54:25
exact same thing happens to every one of us,
54:27
by the way. Because there are girls that are
54:29
just so desperate to get into this party that they're
54:31
literally at the gate. It's like, have you ever been to
54:33
like a Hilton where the koi fish are at the, and
54:36
they don't feed them because they know that like the Asians
54:39
will stay there and they get excited when they see the
54:41
fish? So the koi fish, when you walk by, so
54:43
the girls are at the fence goal, right? And
54:46
they're walking up, hey, can we come in with you? And
54:49
when we pulled up, they were like, oh, okay, you guys
54:51
are here for the party, blah, blah, blah. And once they
54:53
noticed that we were gonna get in, they start trying to
54:55
latch on. And one girl asks, hey, can
54:57
I go in with you and. Uh. I
55:00
don't know. I don't know. I don't
55:02
know what's going on. She
55:11
goes, I don't know what's going on. She
55:14
goes, yeah, I'll just go with you. If you guys go in, she's like,
55:16
I'm a girl. I'll just go in. He goes, yeah,
55:18
I don't know. She goes, she's like, can I just go in
55:20
with you? And he goes, he just goes, look,
55:25
I don't work here. I can't. That's
55:31
one way to handle this situation, okay? Now the other
55:33
way to handle it is, is you say, you know
55:35
what, we're gonna pretend that we're married and I'm gonna
55:38
walk in with you, okay? And that's great. I set
55:40
a good thing up. That's a model set. It was
55:42
a perfect setup. So she goes, that's a great idea
55:44
and just locks arms with them. And they start chit
55:46
chatting and sort of, you know, talking about the weekend
55:49
and we're all filing in. And this is how hard
55:51
the door is, a tan, a beautiful
55:53
woman from New York city, can't get into a party. And
55:55
what world does that happen? And so Miles
55:57
grabs her, she's on his arm. We
56:00
all walk in and then he's the last one to walk
56:02
in and you are kind of like saying who can get
56:04
in da da Da and then you look at miles you
56:06
go. He's good. She is She's
56:12
also good I guess I don't know I guess he
56:15
works here and then Miles and
56:17
her just walked into the party and I was like, oh,
56:19
this is great. This is great We have such good vibes
56:21
ratios on ten right now and then Never
56:24
saw the girl Shasting
56:27
women are she was with her friend
56:29
and left Heart
56:32
be left a friend behind so that was
56:34
crazy. I think that was the other girl
56:36
hot too. Yeah I think they were
56:39
all just being a little generous ten there. But I
56:41
mean she was up there for the story She
56:44
was up there. The friend was nice Just
56:48
got left you guys have so much chemistry going into
56:50
this party. I got her number we talked and then
56:56
I Were
57:01
using me I knew it she's like how
57:03
long to stay by side before I can
57:05
go make my she beat him to the
57:07
door, bro They
57:10
were separate by the time they got into the
57:12
house What was her excuse is she said like
57:14
all I gotta go to suck the guy's dick.
57:16
Yeah, exactly But it's also funny
57:18
because like does she like Oh
57:20
Miles pussy? I mean because they walked
57:22
in together not at all Miles
57:25
I think you can say her name and then y'all can let

1:00:09
So in there, we're getting it in. Dance floor, it
1:00:11
was like a, how do you
1:00:13
describe it, Al? I mean, I was having a
1:00:15
good time. It was very cool. Yeah, it was cool. It
1:00:17
was gay by the pool talking for like three hours. Three
1:00:19
hours. I mean, we were having some great convos. Great convos.
1:00:21
There was like great convos. Away from the party where everything
1:00:24
was. I'll be honest, if I have Adderall in the system,
1:00:26
I don't, I want a pot. I'm
1:00:28
trying to podcast, bro. I
1:00:30
was like, fuck all this dancing shit. I need to Adderall to work
1:00:33
through me a little bit, and then we can let loose. So
1:00:35
we were talking about the pool for a little bit, but when we got
1:00:37
to the dance floor, we turned
1:00:39
it into a mosh pit.
1:00:43
Yeah. Yeah, I'm gonna say. You bullied
1:00:45
the DJ and be like, what's, what's, what's. He
1:00:47
needed. And then Mark started flashing his iPhone just
1:00:50
to give the request, but we needed to. It
1:00:52
was proper, we needed, we saved the party. I
1:00:54
mean, I don't want to say it. I don't want to say that. But
1:00:59
you can say it. I don't think we saved
1:01:02
the party. For them.
1:01:06
For them for sure. You gave it
1:01:08
to Christiane, don't get needed. You see the end
1:01:10
on that. One section of the dance floor, just
1:01:12
jumping up and down, shirts are coming off. The
1:01:15
rest of the dance floor, just
1:01:17
kind of like that a little bit, but it was fun.
1:01:19
What song? Wipe
1:01:22
it. Mr. Brightside. Oh
1:01:24
yeah, Nirvana. Nirvana. Brightside. The final three songs. The
1:01:26
final four songs. Nirvana's fantastic. Listen, we don't know
1:01:28
how to do the cool shit. I don't understand.
1:01:30
I don't know how to do the cool shit.
1:01:33
If we go to the party, we either gonna
1:01:35
podcast by the pool or we gonna fucking turn
1:01:37
the fuck up on the dance floor. I'm not
1:01:39
gonna like do stupid, like I'm being looked at,
1:01:42
everybody's watching me dance moves. We're either going for
1:01:44
it. Yeah, there was a lot of that. And
1:01:46
having fun and it's gonna
1:01:48
get wild and you're gonna see girls in fucking
1:01:50
six and chills jumping up and down, mosh pit
1:01:53
style. They all got on board too. And I
1:01:55
respect that. Cause sometimes the girls, like they want
1:01:57
to be like too cool or whatever. And there's
1:01:59
fucking. to dope Brazilians. Yeah, the
1:02:01
Brazilians were fucking cool, but like, there's girls out
1:02:03
there trying to get chose. You know, Leo's sitting
1:02:05
in the fucking corner. Yeah. You
1:02:07
know, so those girls could go, am I the one? Yeah.
1:02:10
Or they could turn the fuck up. They was
1:02:12
turning the fuck up. Leo went home empty handed,
1:02:14
loser. You know what
1:02:17
I'm saying? What a loser.
1:02:19
I don't think he's ever gone home empty handed.
1:02:21
Yeah, he's right. Yeah, he's right. I know he
1:02:23
left with Miles girl. Yeah. Yeah.
1:02:25
Yeah. That's the,
1:02:28
that'd be the coolest thing in the world. That'd
1:02:30
be unbelievably the coolest thing in the world. Miles
1:02:32
with the John Stockton to Leo, man. That's sick,
1:02:34
actually. It's just no look pass.
1:02:37
Fire. You stopped looking, she was gone. Nah,
1:02:40
we have fun. It was a good time and I'm
1:02:43
stoked that you all were there and Akash, I wish
1:02:45
you were there, bro. I know, I know. Thank you,
1:02:47
Sean. Thank you for having us. No, dude, come on.
1:02:49
Thank you for having us. That was awesome. That was
1:02:51
fire. Awesome. That's the only
1:02:53
way, yeah, that's the only way I want to celebrate those things.
1:02:55
I think that's the thing like, I don't know.
1:02:59
It's, yeah, like there's that, there's
1:03:02
the big party out there every year, which
1:03:05
is the white party, which is at
1:03:07
Michael Rubens house. Yeah. Yeah. And
1:03:11
I assume all these people are friends. So
1:03:14
it makes sense that they're hanging
1:03:16
together. But the idea of like not
1:03:18
being with, if you're not friends with all those people
1:03:21
that are already there, the idea of like not being
1:03:23
with your friends on July 4th or
1:03:25
on like a fun weekend when you can, when
1:03:27
everybody's off and they're trying to party, it just
1:03:29
seems like a little bit of mistake in
1:03:32
my opinion. But if that's your community, you guys hang all
1:03:34
the time and then you get to let loose and like
1:03:36
rip, and then that seems like a going. Did you get
1:03:38
invited? You're invited. No, no, no, no, I'm not cool enough
1:03:40
to do something like that. But if I was, I wouldn't
1:03:42
want to do that over hang out with
1:03:44
you guys and party. It's gonna be the same
1:03:46
music. Yeah. It's gonna
1:03:49
be the same alcohol. It's more small talk. There's more
1:03:51
small talk and I hate the fucking small
1:03:53
talk. I had my all white, all white,
1:03:56
and ready just in case we got it. Just
1:03:58
in case. You're
1:04:00
ready to go. Not gonna lie. Don't ask for a
1:04:02
plus three, that'll get your band on the party. It's
1:04:05
not that close. Yeah, I was saying it's on
1:04:08
the thread, but the white party to me seems
1:04:10
like dudes met Gala. Yeah. Like
1:04:12
we all get, everybody gets dressed up, you get super hyped. It
1:04:14
doesn't really mean anything, but getting an invite is like you made
1:04:16
it. And then we're like, what
1:04:18
watch is he wearing? Everybody's flexing with the watches. To
1:04:20
me, it's just the male met Gala. Now I'd still
1:04:23
probably go off if I got invited because I ain't
1:04:25
shit, but we know what it is, right? We
1:04:27
know what time it is. You're not friends with these people. You're just trying
1:04:29
to be like, I made it. But
1:04:32
I'm sure the part, yeah, exactly. And I'm sure
1:04:34
that feels good. There's like validation. You're like, oh,
1:04:36
I'm at a level, et cetera. So I'm sure
1:04:38
it's incredibly flattering. Like the met Gala thing is
1:04:40
flattering. Like I have zero interest to go to
1:04:42
the fucking met Gala ever. If
1:04:44
I go, it's because my wife made me. Exactly.
1:04:46
The only thing and be it's important to them.
1:04:48
So, you know, that's the something that you have
1:04:50
to go. But the
1:04:52
met Gala is on some random Monday. Yeah.
1:04:55
Like you're not doing nothing better than that on a Monday. July
1:04:57
4th, all your boys are going to come out and
1:04:59
then you're going to leave all your friends to go
1:05:02
to this party. Like, just so you
1:05:04
could be good business opportunity, right? You meet
1:05:06
good people. Yes. They like validates
1:05:08
the career. It is. It is great. It does
1:05:10
all those things. So maybe you have to look at like that. You have
1:05:12
to look at like doing a show. You're like,
1:05:14
sometimes you got to perform on, you know, Christmas. Sometimes you
1:05:16
got to perform on New Year. Sometimes you have to form
1:05:18
July 4th. So you can look at it like that. That's
1:05:20
the smart way. Look at it. And
1:05:23
maybe they're looking like that too. But I'm also like, if I can have 12
1:05:25
of my homies out East
1:05:28
and we could just fucking eat
1:05:30
lobster rolls and some
1:05:32
of them could do lots of cocaine and we could just laugh
1:05:34
at each other. Like, that's going to be so much
1:05:36
fun. For me, going to like a party when
1:05:39
I know I have a big group at that party,
1:05:41
like I came with eight guys like that I can
1:05:43
go and do my. But
1:05:45
you know, you have a whole face. But I have home. It's
1:05:47
nothing. The best. That's
1:05:49
probably the best. Now you
1:05:51
feel responsible for them. If a couple
1:05:53
of your friends are at the white party, you get invited. That's
1:05:55
probably the latest. Fuck. You're
1:05:57
like, you're here. We're sure you know who likes
1:05:59
that party. the most athletes or NFL
1:06:02
and NBA that are off season and they
1:06:04
get to really let loose right now before
1:06:06
they go back to camp and season. And
1:06:08
also they got a bunch of their, I imagine, homies. Like
1:06:11
if you're a basketball player, you've been playing with the same
1:06:13
dude since you're 14 years old, if you're an elite basketball
1:06:15
player. So it's not like these people are strangers. Yeah. You
1:06:18
know? But... Good
1:06:22
times, man. Yeah, it was far. Good times. Except for
1:06:25
good times. But I will say this though. Ferg
1:06:27
was far. I always turned up. I got crazy for
1:06:29
Ferg. You bar for bar for
1:06:31
Ferg. It's kind of wild. I didn't even know you had
1:06:33
that. Nice? That Ferg is nice. He's
1:06:35
unbelievable. He performed at that point. He killed that shit.
1:06:37
But yeah, it was, I'll tell you this though, I
1:06:39
only got two days of partying left in me now.
1:06:42
Well, we're total? I got, no, no, like
1:06:44
I could party. Forever? I
1:06:47
am, dog. No, I could party for two
1:06:49
days and then I'm like my body can't
1:06:51
produce serotonin anymore. Like it just
1:06:53
runs out of happiness. I was in bed all
1:06:55
day yesterday. I woke
1:06:57
up, I hate him back to sleep. That was all tennis.
1:06:59
See, I wanna do that, but then my wife would be
1:07:02
looking at me crazy like, you partied and now you're not
1:07:04
hanging out with your daughter? So I'm like, all right, I'm
1:07:06
gonna be tired all day. Just to prove you won't. Let's
1:07:09
see who naps first. But
1:07:12
I knew I showed up late because when I
1:07:14
got back that night, my wife was pumping. Oh
1:07:18
yay. So she was pumping her
1:07:20
breath. She was like getting the milk out in the middle of the
1:07:22
night and I was like, oh fuck. Yeah. Imagine
1:07:24
the way she looking at you like, God damn, you're just
1:07:26
getting in. I'm sitting here being a mom this whole time
1:07:28
carrying the morning you're just stumming in. Dumbass. You
1:07:31
fucking idiot. Chose the wrong gender. Anyway,
1:07:35
that was fun. What else we got going on boys?
1:07:38
Akash. Oh Akash, Akash, Akash. So while
1:07:40
we just had the most fun this
1:07:43
whole weekend, Akash was on
1:07:47
a journey for redemption. Yes, I had to. And
1:07:49
you guys have heard this story
1:07:51
before. You wanna set it up a little? It is
1:07:53
my greatest bomb ever, 2012, a
1:07:56
show for just Indians, specific type of Indians
1:07:58
called Kanaah Catholics. and they're thinking,
1:08:00
these are my people, I'm gonna crush. I
1:08:02
eat the biggest dick I've ever eaten for
1:08:04
an hour straight. Someone's literally falling asleep in
1:08:06
the front row, horrible setup, et cetera, et
1:08:09
cetera. This time they ask me back. They
1:08:11
say, we've heard you tell this story, we
1:08:13
wanna make things right. So I'm like,
1:08:15
okay, I'm going there, and the setup needs to be
1:08:17
great, and if it's not, I might just take my
1:08:19
fucking check and go home. And they're
1:08:21
like, fine. So I fly down there the morning
1:08:23
of, and the setup is fucked. I
1:08:25
mean, they took none of the things that I asked for.
1:08:28
So I'm walking into, it's at the San
1:08:31
Antonio Convention Center, whatever Gonzalez, and I remember when I
1:08:33
saw the address, they put me in a hotel, and I
1:08:35
assumed the show'd be at the hotel, like four or 500
1:08:37
people. I'm at a convention center, I'm
1:08:39
like, that seems like a big room. And they tell
1:08:41
me on the way up, they're like, oh, we're expecting a pretty
1:08:43
good turnout, like maybe 500, maybe even 1,000 people. I'm
1:08:45
like, okay, cool, I walk into the room, dead
1:08:47
ass, I see 3,000 chairs. This
1:08:50
room is 100 yards long, it's massive.
1:08:52
This is where Tony Robbins, or Tony
1:08:54
Roberts, whatever, would give a speech. The
1:08:56
motivational guy? It's a fucking
1:08:58
arena side. You're doing theaters at least, if you're
1:09:00
here. You would do a show there, and
1:09:03
be like, all right, cool, I can sell this out. Like
1:09:05
3,000 chairs. That's a lot of people,
1:09:07
especially in a convention center, there's like, it's
1:09:09
just three rooms. Slap and long hide. Horrible
1:09:11
setup. Sounds like a horrible room. There's a
1:09:13
20-foot gap between me and the front row of the
1:09:15
audience. I sent Andrew a video, I'm freaking out how
1:09:17
big the room is. So I start
1:09:20
arguing with everything. It looks like the NFL Draft.
1:09:22
Dead ass, dead ass is a massive room. And
1:09:24
if there's 500 people shown, they're not gonna all
1:09:26
sit at the front, they're gonna
1:09:28
go sit scattered everywhere. It's gonna be the worst show ever.
1:09:30
But they told you where it was the date of? You
1:09:32
didn't know. They said convention center, but I don't know what
1:09:34
room it is. So I remember thinking, I'm like, they got
1:09:36
like a small room in the convention center because last time
1:09:38
it was in a hotel. So I'm thinking
1:09:40
it can't be that much bigger. I
1:09:42
don't realize I'm 40 and 12 years past. It's
1:09:46
a way different thing now. And what they did, they have
1:09:48
like 3,000 people sign up for the conference, and
1:09:50
one of the events has everybody. So
1:09:52
they just have one room, they set up chairs
1:09:55
for that event, and they're like, we're not gonna
1:09:57
change it. So I started going fucking nuts, yelling
1:09:59
at everybody. Thinking about Andrew and I'm like
1:10:01
what I would normally do is just be like alright Well, I'll just
1:10:03
make the best show I can make out of this and then I'm
1:10:05
like now fuck that So I start arguing
1:10:07
they have two air walls one can cut off like
1:10:09
20% of the room. That's great I'm like, okay cool.
1:10:12
That's manageable. They say we can do that There's another
1:10:14
one that could cut off 40% of the room now
1:10:16
if we can get that closed we're cooking So
1:10:18
I'm yeah for four hours. I'm arguing with everybody close
1:10:20
this fucking wall close this fucking wall Finally they kick
1:10:23
it up the chain of command. They're like, alright, we're
1:10:25
gonna give in we're gonna close this wall Don't worry
1:10:27
about it. They move the whole night around 20
1:10:31
minutes before the show they're like, hey, we can't close that wall So
1:10:34
I'm like we still gonna have like 800 extra
1:10:36
chairs probably fuck. I got to try to
1:10:39
make this work I'm not
1:10:41
seeing the line and this was a cool
1:10:43
part Kev was out there and he was like man I
1:10:45
wish I taped it when they opened the doors People
1:10:47
fucking sprinted to get to the best seats like it
1:10:49
was a Black Friday sale something. So then I'm feeling
1:10:51
a little better This is a good story. That's a
1:10:54
good So
1:10:57
And the set isn't part it's a hard show
1:10:59
to really crush in it's still a lot of
1:11:02
kids who haven't really seen a comedy show It's
1:11:04
still not a great setup. I don't crush by
1:11:06
any stretch. I definitely don't bomb like I thought
1:11:08
I would And it was an upgrade.
1:11:10
Yeah, it was a massive upper and they were so hyped
1:11:12
to see me was a cool as fuck I think
1:11:14
every chair pretty much is full which I was like,
1:11:16
you know, they expected 500 thousand we got like Man
1:11:21
These were coming up and then after dog I got
1:11:23
emotional like when I went back I got like mob
1:11:25
Like I felt like a fucking for 15 minutes. I
1:11:27
felt like this would a Bollywood star feels like man
1:11:29
people trying to take pictures I'm just doing selfie selfie
1:11:32
selfie So I didn't have being a fucking awesome story
1:11:34
and I'm really glad I went But if I went
1:11:36
to 4th of July and then I just showed up
1:11:38
right before the show I would have eaten dick again
1:11:41
So I ended up being a mess like I'm so thankful to
1:11:44
Shouts to Jovan Thomas who like I was on
1:11:46
him all the time calling calling calling and he
1:11:48
was he was in the room in my heart
1:11:50
I'm happy that you got your yeah. Yeah, I
1:11:53
know you are but in my head. Yeah, I
1:11:55
know I wish you had a worse That
1:11:58
is friendship But in my heart,
1:12:00
I am happy. That is brotherhood. I hope you sprain
1:12:03
your back again. I hope you never get to play
1:12:05
again. I was thinking,
1:12:07
literally, I swear to God, I told my wife this morning.
1:12:09
That's just more than me just saying that. I told my
1:12:11
wife this morning. I was like, I'm going to start playing
1:12:13
paddle just so I can play with Andrew. I know quality
1:12:15
time means a lot to my friend. I just realized this.
1:12:18
I haven't been doing that enough. I'm going
1:12:20
to learn paddle to play with him. And now I hope
1:12:22
you break your foot and
1:12:24
I never have to play with you again. I
1:12:28
just, that's what I hope. In
1:12:30
my head, my heart is saying something different. I love you
1:12:32
too, bro. I love you, Doug. Okay,
1:12:36
so it worked out. It was great. Yeah, dude, it ended
1:12:38
up being a fantastic experience. I've seen my mom the day
1:12:40
before, it was nice. But- Did she come to the show?
1:12:42
No, I just flew down early, trying to help them move
1:12:44
and stuff like that. But I don't ever get to see
1:12:46
my folks anymore. So that was cool. No, did you know
1:12:48
a lot about this sect of- I did not before the
1:12:50
last show. And now you've learned a bit. And now I
1:12:52
know a little bit more, but I was asking them
1:12:54
stuff. And I was like, so here's basics I know.
1:12:57
You guys really are only allowed to marry each other.
1:12:59
People call you inbred. I know you're alcoholics. I
1:13:01
know it started in Syria. And then they were
1:13:03
like, the first two things pretty much all you
1:13:05
need to know. Syria, of course, don't even matter.
1:13:09
So there's just a sect of Catholics that everybody
1:13:11
that knows about them looks at and is like,
1:13:13
they're weird. And they're okay with that. Because
1:13:16
they're doing their own thing. They're like, that's fine, we
1:13:18
get it. Yeah, they're laughing at us. Are there distinguishing
1:13:20
characteristics that we would know about them? No, I can't
1:13:22
even. I know they're from Kerala. So
1:13:25
we call them Malus because they speak
1:13:27
Malayalam. So every person
1:13:29
that's a Catholic is Malu, but not every
1:13:31
Malu is Canak. They're like a section of,
1:13:34
for whatever reason they got converted
1:13:37
this other way. And I don't even, when I
1:13:39
asked them what the other beliefs were, they didn't really have a good answer
1:13:41
for me. So I don't know. Maybe they just didn't
1:13:43
want to explain it to me 30 minutes before
1:13:45
a show. But yeah, if you
1:13:47
see someone who looks like you married
1:13:49
his cousin. So this is like the Indian version
1:13:51
of the Curlies in Brooklyn, like that.
1:13:53
But Christian. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
1:13:56
That's how we look at them. But they drink
1:13:58
way more. Oh, absolutely fine. I'm wrong,
1:14:00
it sounds sick. Yeah. Like,
1:14:04
hmm, how do I say this? It
1:14:07
seems like, I want
1:14:09
to say it was just Indians, but there's
1:14:11
other places where they're like really good at
1:14:13
like community and like maintaining community. And
1:14:15
is it just
1:14:17
a Western thing where that is for
1:14:20
whatever reason less important or maybe? You
1:14:22
know what I think it is? Hindus are not
1:14:24
as good as other communities because we have persecuted
1:14:26
less. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. They're
1:14:28
tired of your, Jewish people are very tight
1:14:30
because they get persecuted every hundred years. Sick
1:14:32
people, my wife's side, they're very tight, they
1:14:34
get persecuted. So answer me this though, if
1:14:37
you go to England and
1:14:39
you go to like the north, there are these
1:14:41
distinct cities that
1:14:43
are separated by fucking 30
1:14:45
minute car ride, but culturally
1:14:47
completely different. Like Liverpool
1:14:49
and Manchester, or how far? From
1:14:51
half an hour. An hour and an hour and an hour. An
1:14:53
hour and an hour, I don't know. An hour and an hour
1:14:55
and a half, yeah. They're like, they think that they are polar
1:14:57
opposites. I took an Uber from
1:15:00
one city to the other for shows and the guy was like,
1:15:02
I never come over here, I should. He's like, Doug, it's an
1:15:04
hour. So what does that, like
1:15:06
what unites, how do you get like
1:15:08
a tribal aspect? I don't know.
1:15:10
Is that just like thousands of years of
1:15:12
history? Yeah, probably. Thousands of years. And then
1:15:14
since America, we're so young, that exists when the
1:15:17
tribal people come here, but the people that have
1:15:19
been here for a while just start to kind
1:15:21
of. And probably back then when they formed the
1:15:23
communities, you couldn't get, there was no
1:15:25
cars to drive an hour and a half
1:15:27
delivery. So it really solidifies. Yeah. Yeah,
1:15:30
that makes sense. And then the
1:15:32
black people here, unfortunately, are stripped
1:15:34
from their past. Yeah, and they get persecuted a lot, so
1:15:36
I think there's a lot of black people. But also some
1:15:38
of your tribes might have sucked and now you're like, you
1:15:40
don't have to do that. You
1:15:43
know we're all lit, come on, bro. No, I don't
1:15:45
know. I mean, some tribes sold y'all,
1:15:47
you know what I mean? They're probably not lit. Oh,
1:15:49
wow. I
1:15:53
expect a double down. I expect a
1:15:55
double down. That
1:15:57
is the only way out, really. That is an awesome.
1:16:00
of marketing like, who is,
1:16:02
who is, like
1:16:05
wipe that from the history books? What,
1:16:08
what part? Sell, the blacks sell in the blacks.
1:16:10
No one wiped that. You guys love to point
1:16:12
that out every time. The slavery cover comes up.
1:16:14
Just me. Oh, everybody loves to.
1:16:16
Anybody who wants to point that out. But
1:16:19
we still can't name a dude. Like
1:16:22
we don't know who the biggest seller of black people
1:16:24
was in Shifty's Leaving, he's like, I can't be a
1:16:26
buyer. We also don't know the biggest buyer. Yeah. I
1:16:28
think we do. I mean, no group,
1:16:31
but we don't know. Brazil, I
1:16:33
think they had the most good. Yeah. And
1:16:37
they were picking the fucking cream of the
1:16:39
crop. Because it was Brazilian,
1:16:41
right? Like, Jesus Christ. Well,
1:16:44
because they were so hot. Yeah. You just
1:16:46
got the hot one. The second they bent down to pick the cotton,
1:16:48
they were like, what's up? That angle. My
1:16:50
back, son. Hold on, I pulled
1:16:52
my back again. That's what Brazil. Brazil, I'm bending down.
1:16:55
I'm landing in the back. I
1:16:57
got to pee real quick. Okay, we take a little
1:16:59
break. And we are back. It looks like the Aparo
1:17:02
Spritzes have begun. We're not letting
1:17:04
go of summer. We are just beginning. Yeah.
1:17:06
We're just getting started. We're just warming up. You want to go
1:17:08
to a Zindog? No, no, I got one. You
1:17:11
know this is Zinshorge in New York City?
1:17:13
I believe it. People don't have Zins anymore.
1:17:15
I believe it. What are they going
1:17:17
to? I'm just thinking of vaping and shit, but also trying to
1:17:19
get Zins on the low. Now people are Zindealing. They
1:17:21
got Zindealers that are getting them wholesale, driving them
1:17:24
in, and they're just slaying them for up charge.
1:17:26
It's like masks during a pandemic. Yeah. Type
1:17:28
ship. Okay, so we got to get our hand on some
1:17:30
Zins. I
1:17:34
want to talk about this You Somethin' Not
1:17:36
Like Us video. Yeah. What did y'all
1:17:39
think about it? I mean, it's fire. Did
1:17:41
you like it? It's a fantastic video. Yeah, it's fantastic.
1:17:43
I didn't like it. I thought it was a little
1:17:45
weak. Really? I thought it was like
1:17:47
the metaphors were really overhanded. Which ones? They
1:17:50
were like, say a line and then like act out the
1:17:52
line. It was like, hide
1:17:54
the Bible, something to watch, and it's
1:17:56
like, there's a Bible and I'll hide it. It's
1:17:58
so deliberate. Did I thought
1:18:00
it took away like the nice thing about showing
1:18:03
something is that you don't also have to tell
1:18:05
it. Yeah, and Yeah,
1:18:09
I don't know I just felt like
1:18:11
there was a bunch of those moments where it was
1:18:13
like very deliberate I thought it looked Beautiful
1:18:16
Kev said it was it just
1:18:18
looks fucking clean like the shipping
1:18:20
containers clean white Also, there's
1:18:22
a lot of that underhanded type shit like
1:18:24
the shipping containers If
1:18:27
you're gonna say direct traffic's in women, oh, okay well,
1:18:29
there's some there's some metaphor that I didn't say and maybe I'm just
1:18:32
like a fool looking at but there's a few lines that I thought
1:18:34
were like and The
1:18:36
the actual line that he wraps Is
1:18:39
showcase the action is showcased at the exact same
1:18:41
time. Yeah, and I thought that that was just a
1:18:43
little some of this
1:18:45
stuff I've for how Elegant
1:18:49
he is when it comes to like his
1:18:51
metaphors and how artistic he is with his
1:18:54
wrapping I thought it was quite Pedestrian
1:18:56
like an old-school. M&M video. Yeah,
1:18:59
every little part. Yeah, it's like
1:19:02
Anderson is here and then pan Anderson pops up
1:19:04
like yeah, I guess the reason
1:19:06
why I was a little Underwhelmed
1:19:09
was because the concert and
1:19:12
I thought this was just going to be another one
1:19:14
of those where he's breaking all of LA I mean
1:19:16
you were just gonna see so much of LA a
1:19:18
lot of it was he brought every human in Compton
1:19:21
out It just what it didn't feel like a celebration
1:19:23
It felt like it was it's about me and
1:19:25
then you know I'll flash to moments of
1:19:28
where I show everyone else but on stage that
1:19:30
one big moment Like I thought it was gonna
1:19:32
be more of that. So I guess yeah Oh,
1:19:35
I thought this is a whole showcase of
1:19:37
Compton and West Coast. He did he did
1:19:39
everything There's a West Coast touch. So
1:19:41
some of this stuff. I don't know what's what's
1:19:43
true and what's not some of this stuff That's
1:19:45
supposed to be more subtle Some of it I
1:19:47
for sure believe like the guy who's wearing the
1:19:49
wife beater and the overalls that Kendrick gives five
1:19:51
to he's dressed like the Metro
1:19:54
I think and the like that like when him
1:19:56
and future have the album cover. It's like almost
1:19:58
the exact same outfit There's some Some people say
1:20:00
the gray suit he wears in front of the
1:20:02
shipping container looks very similar to the one R.
1:20:04
Kelly wears in his interview when he's like, yeah,
1:20:07
killing me with this shit. I don't
1:20:09
know if that's real or not. No, but it's not. He
1:20:11
does. That would be weird. Well, I think
1:20:13
he's, again, if you're doing it, alluding to trafficking. Him
1:20:16
and his wife dancing, like it was a sitcom.
1:20:18
Oh, that was fire. That was awesome. That was
1:20:20
fire. That's like an allusion to the family matters,
1:20:22
I think. It's like
1:20:24
80s sitcom vibes. And it's like, oh, you want to
1:20:26
talk old sitcom or dang. But if you're going to
1:20:28
say this stuff about my wife, having
1:20:30
her in the video with a wife beater is
1:20:33
also a very funny touch. Oh, OK.
1:20:35
That's good. I think I don't know if
1:20:37
as a Seawalker, fucking whatever LA dance
1:20:40
that is, but she's killing it. She's
1:20:43
a good dancer. And I think that was a direct
1:20:45
fuck you to people who were going to be like,
1:20:47
I think he's responding to me being like, it's not
1:20:49
about Drake being white. It's about being in touch with
1:20:51
the culture. And y'all are saying my wife is mixed race,
1:20:53
whatever. I don't care about the race. It's the cultural aspect.
1:20:55
My wife is in touch culturally. I
1:20:57
see Krip walks on the hopscotch thing during the
1:21:00
A minor line. Yeah. I don't even tell him
1:21:02
to Krip walk either. And I don't know if
1:21:04
she's Hoover stomping or Krip walking or whatever, but
1:21:06
she's doing some LA shit in
1:21:08
that dance. And I think it's like, it's not about
1:21:10
the race. It's about the culture. She's a part of
1:21:12
the culture you're not. And releasing it on Independence Day.
1:21:15
Apparently who do we get freedom from the colonizers
1:21:18
on her Independence Day, which I thought
1:21:20
was fire too. Yeah, no. Yeah. It
1:21:22
was directed by Dave Free. Oh, that's his
1:21:25
boy. Yeah. And at the end, the
1:21:27
one made that a big thing. But that's the one that's directed by Kendrick and
1:21:29
Dave Free. It was like the first thing that pops up after Drake was saying
1:21:31
that's like the bottom of it. Yeah.
1:21:35
I don't know. I just saw
1:21:37
it and I was like, I thought it was
1:21:39
fine. And I was ready for it to be
1:21:42
majestic. You
1:21:44
wanted more artistry or
1:21:47
like the subtle stuff that we know Kendrick to do. Yeah.
1:21:51
It was almost like, hey, look, I
1:21:54
have a good relationship with my wife
1:21:56
and family. I think you
1:21:58
got to be over and heavy handed with that. I
1:22:00
don't know if you have to because I think
1:22:04
in a way like showing that means
1:22:09
that you feel you have to address it. Yeah,
1:22:13
I get it. You know what I mean? It's like... But
1:22:16
when you're doing the victory lap, I don't mind
1:22:18
him addressing it now. Fair enough. If
1:22:21
he did it immediately... Because the trick was trying to address it
1:22:23
during and that's actually what hurt him. That's a good point. That's
1:22:25
a good point. That's a good point. Yeah.
1:22:28
You're gay and you're like, oh, I get so much pussy. It's
1:22:31
corny. But if you win the battle
1:22:33
and then you show off all the things you got,
1:22:35
okay, I have to look at it through that perspective.
1:22:37
I thought that was more... You got the Rosen in
1:22:39
the video? That was awesome. Yeah, that was a big
1:22:42
move. And I'm
1:22:44
curious how Toronto feel about that. Because
1:22:47
Toronto... Or again, this is
1:22:49
something we talked about with the hack. Everybody turning
1:22:51
on Drake can't just be everybody being a
1:22:53
fair weather fan. It can't just
1:22:55
be there. You know what I mean? You
1:22:57
got no allies left. It can't be that everybody
1:23:00
sucks and you're good. I
1:23:02
will say this. If there's one thing this weekend told me
1:23:04
is that Drake is going to be just fine. I'm
1:23:07
sure. Just fine. Is
1:23:10
it? Every time the Drake song comes on, everybody's
1:23:12
saying every single word. It's still so
1:23:14
much fun to dance with. The guy's got
1:23:16
a catalog that's so fucking deep. It's untouchable.
1:23:18
He's going to be just fine. In
1:23:22
that aspect of things, yes. Imagine
1:23:25
being at the Michael Rubin white party and
1:23:28
people taking their phones out watching Kendrick's video
1:23:30
that just dropped. Oh,
1:23:34
that was actually happening. Yeah, that's why he's
1:23:36
there. That's why he looks so sad. That's
1:23:38
why he looks a little sad at the
1:23:41
pictures. Yeah. Imagine.
1:23:44
It's also stressful knowing if you invite Drake to any
1:23:46
party, you have to tell the DJ he can't play
1:23:48
this song even though it's the song of the summer.
1:23:52
It's like annoying, I guess, having Drake there in
1:23:54
that regard. I
1:23:56
think that this goes away. The
1:23:59
biggest rap. of
1:26:00
the culture, you didn't sell drugs.
1:26:02
Nobody questioned Jay-Z's authenticity ever. Drake
1:26:06
already had that. And now it's not only are
1:26:08
you not authentic, you actually just used us to
1:26:11
get ahead. Where the narrative used to
1:26:13
be, Drake puts everyone on, now it's
1:26:15
turned to Drake is using you to
1:26:17
qualify himself so that we don't see
1:26:20
him as a Jewish kid
1:26:22
from Canada. And that
1:26:24
was a big flip. That
1:26:26
is a big, big flip. The biggest flip
1:26:29
in this whole thing. Yeah, that's a great
1:26:31
point. The pedophile one is the, I mean
1:26:34
for lack of a better word, the most
1:26:36
hilarious, it's the most salacious, it's the easiest
1:26:38
one to pick on, it's the easiest one
1:26:40
to poke at. But the actual damage
1:26:44
could be done relationship wise. But
1:26:48
at the same time, if you're a young and up and coming rapper and
1:26:50
Drake wants to give you a feature, you're not saying no. Like
1:26:53
who could say no? No, you're not, but the
1:26:55
people might look at it differently. There's a video
1:26:57
of Anthony Edwards who's I think from Atlanta and
1:26:59
he's like the coolest basketball player to Americans right
1:27:01
now, rapping that third verse word
1:27:03
for word to his homie holding the phone.
1:27:05
Like check this out. This is what he's
1:27:08
saying. You run to Atlanta with like that
1:27:10
perception is there now. That's
1:27:13
a good point. I think you said or
1:27:15
you repeated something that you said, but
1:27:18
the Drake stimulus package is over. Yeah.
1:27:20
Like if act his biggest fan is
1:27:22
saying that that's
1:27:24
telling. I think he's going to
1:27:26
be fine, bro. I know it sounds crazy, but I
1:27:29
think this song will
1:27:31
obviously run through summer by the end of summer.
1:27:33
It's fine. And then it just goes back into
1:27:35
the songs that you've heard before. You're a DJ.
1:27:37
You got to play 200 songs in
1:27:39
a night. You really not going to play Drake. Right.
1:27:43
You really not going to play. You're going
1:27:45
to play Drake. This is hyperbolic, but again,
1:27:47
I don't know if this is hyperbolic,
1:27:50
but do we look at him and in the
1:27:52
same general galaxy as a Nelly where it's like,
1:27:54
yeah, you're I'm going to dance to your shit.
1:27:56
It's going to be play at a club, but
1:27:58
I'm not looking at Nelly as like. a
1:28:00
go-rapper. No, I think
1:28:02
we look at him as... And
1:28:06
if you... we don't know what you wrote and what you didn't. I
1:28:10
don't even think people are caring about that that
1:28:12
much. Maybe I care about them, because we're comics
1:28:14
and it's such a thing. Yeah, but I think
1:28:16
that's been out there, and I don't think we
1:28:19
care more about that now because of this. I
1:28:22
think that's peaks. But
1:28:24
I do think your point about the, I'm
1:28:26
just using these people for a cool stamp of approval.
1:28:29
Whereas we used to look at it as the
1:28:31
biggest rapper in the world, is
1:28:33
cosigning. Like, that's a great fucking point.
1:28:35
Yeah. Does it cut off a
1:28:37
channel for him? Yeah, and a channel that was really helpful.
1:28:40
And he has a pleasure on the channels. He'll be fine
1:28:42
with those other channels, but that channel. That was a big
1:28:44
one. And that's really necessary
1:28:47
for someone to rap. The
1:28:50
streets got to cosign you, and he had that. Yeah.
1:28:53
Yeah, it's an interesting, I don't
1:28:55
know. But I think, I'm
1:28:57
trying to find an equal example of
1:28:59
someone else in music. They
1:29:02
went through something like this, but
1:29:04
the music still prevails. It's
1:29:08
hard to say when the music still prevails, because
1:29:10
like, 50-50 jaw. Michael
1:29:13
had the worst, he literally had that shit.
1:29:15
Yeah, that audition was stronger. That, I mean,
1:29:17
Mike slaps no matter what. That's
1:29:20
true. And Mike
1:29:22
ain't writing his shit. I
1:29:24
mean, like... Pop artists, it's
1:29:26
exactly right. There's a different expectation. Frank Snatcher didn't write his
1:29:28
shit. I get it, 100%. But
1:29:32
I think as time goes on, you
1:29:34
remember how those Drake songs made
1:29:37
you feel, and they encapsulate a
1:29:39
certain time in the same way food does. Like,
1:29:41
Pumpkin Pie is Christmas and Thanksgiving.
1:29:43
It reminds you of being a kid,
1:29:46
and it's Thanksgiving, and your grandma's there. Whatever these
1:29:48
things happen, I think the same thing happens with
1:29:50
music. It just gets, like, intertwined
1:29:52
with your life and how you felt in these
1:29:54
certain times. I'm sure that's why Taylor Swift is
1:29:57
so huge. She just fucking makes it happen. And
1:29:59
the more frivolous music some- Sometimes it succeeds and
1:30:01
sometimes it just goes away. And
1:30:04
I think Drake has got those songs where you're just like, oh,
1:30:06
this is how I feel and I'm fucking rapping this shit. Yeah,
1:30:09
I don't think anything hurts his back, Kat but
1:30:27
like only within your, I feel like
1:30:29
that's within your generation. It's
1:30:32
the same thing with like basketball. Like these kids that
1:30:34
grew up with LeBron, like they only think LeBron is
1:30:36
the greatest. They literally do not think Michael is. And
1:30:38
why would they? They never saw Michael do what we
1:30:41
saw him do. And I think the same thing exists
1:30:43
with music where it's just like this
1:30:45
generation might go, all
1:30:47
right, Kendrick was number one and Drake's number two.
1:30:49
And that's how they might remember it. And that's
1:30:51
totally fine. But the next
1:30:54
generation is already on someone else. And they're
1:30:56
like, yeah, Kendrick ain't number one and neither
1:30:58
is Drake. This guy is number one. I
1:31:00
don't know who the new. You'll put that
1:31:02
guy, then Kendrick, then Drake. Yeah.
1:31:06
And then after another generation goes,
1:31:08
you're not even talking about Kendrick and Drake. So
1:31:10
I think it's just you, you, you become, you
1:31:12
wear the belt within your generation and then you
1:31:14
have to just have to accept like, it's
1:31:17
going to move on. None of these young kids
1:31:19
consider Jay-Z to be the greatest rapper alive. Yeah.
1:31:21
Our generation, there are very few people that don't think
1:31:23
that he was wearing the belt and he was number one. So
1:31:25
it's like it's a, it's
1:31:28
a kind of silly endeavor to chase for
1:31:30
your life because it will never exist. Yeah.
1:31:33
It's like being the greatest empire of all time. Oh,
1:31:35
was Rome the greatest empire? I don't fucking know.
1:31:37
Like, seems like America is. Louis said
1:31:39
a thing when he came on this pod. He was like, the
1:31:41
top of the mountain is not a place you're supposed to stay.
1:31:43
Yeah. It's a place you go visit and then you get the
1:31:45
fuck down. Yeah. He would say he'd probably try to stay up
1:31:47
there too long. But you go up there, you're
1:31:49
like, hey, I got here. Now let's get back down.
1:31:52
You're not setting up a home. It's not your choice. Yeah. Like,
1:31:55
get comfortable with that idea. Cause you're not people, you'll
1:31:57
be there temporarily if you got there. That's it. That's
1:31:59
all you. And then some people can go twice.
1:32:02
Some people might even be able to go three times. There
1:32:04
are different people that have these different
1:32:07
stages in their career where, like, they
1:32:09
kill it, things are OK,
1:32:11
they have this resurgence. That
1:32:14
happens sometimes. It rarely happens, but it
1:32:16
sometimes happens. But whether
1:32:19
this generation... Like, I think maybe we remember
1:32:21
this and we go, OK, yeah, it was
1:32:23
Kendrick. He was the best. But
1:32:26
I don't think that we'll listen to Kendrick's
1:32:28
music more now because of that. Oh, you
1:32:30
know, you know, like, yeah, short
1:32:32
term, we will. But you guys make the point.
1:32:34
Moving forward. What is the step forward? I think
1:32:37
you got to take the summer off, bro. Like,
1:32:39
just think more products. Yeah, he's not. He's
1:32:41
doing like an act. Just tweeted some. He's got some
1:32:44
more heat on the way. Oh, wow. And
1:32:47
yeah, well, here's what I'll also say. After the
1:32:49
push thing, I remember we we just started flagging.
1:32:52
I came on as a guy who didn't like
1:32:54
Drake. And I was like, you know, I know Drake. This is going to last
1:32:56
like a month and he's going to be fine. But
1:32:58
it's cool to see him take an L because
1:33:00
he had never taken an L. I don't feel the
1:33:02
same certainty that everything will be the
1:33:04
exact same, if not better, very quickly.
1:33:07
I think I don't know if it's ever going
1:33:09
to be quite the same. Yeah, it'll
1:33:11
still be great. Do Drake is a pop star. He's
1:33:13
going to make money. He makes fucking great music. Even
1:33:16
me as somebody who says I hate him,
1:33:18
like, I never would deny that. But I
1:33:20
do think largely the thing that
1:33:22
he might have wanted, which is goat status, that
1:33:25
might be out of reach now. We might look at that and
1:33:27
be like, no, you wanted to in battles.
1:33:29
The other guy that we had you compared to.
1:33:32
Actually, there's two guys we had you compared to, and
1:33:34
one of them made one quit before it even started.
1:33:36
And then he made us look at you differently forever.
1:33:38
It is an interesting like it's a. You
1:33:42
look at it from both directions. You can look at it
1:33:44
as a great lesson for
1:33:46
if you if you're following Drake
1:33:49
side, a great lesson, which is like chase
1:33:52
your art and create the projects
1:33:54
you want to create. But creating
1:33:57
for approval, if you will. like
1:33:59
creating just to have the top
1:34:01
spot will often put you
1:34:04
in a place that is inauthentic and that might
1:34:06
cause you, it costs you everything. And
1:34:08
then you can look at the exact same thing from Kendrick's side and
1:34:10
you can go, oh,
1:34:12
he said I want the spot and he
1:34:14
took it and he reap all the rewards
1:34:17
for it. It is
1:34:19
a gamble. It's a huge fucking gamble.
1:34:22
They could have subbed each other for the next 10
1:34:24
fucking years and it would
1:34:27
have just been left up to the fans to decide.
1:34:30
And they went at it and they
1:34:32
had a boxing match and now it's not left
1:34:34
up to the fans. Now it's left up to
1:34:36
the history books. I do wonder
1:34:38
if I'm projecting some of my own feelings on
1:34:40
Kendrick. I think about
1:34:42
Indian American culture, what it is a lot.
1:34:44
I think Kendrick feels that way about hip
1:34:46
hop culture, black culture, and he wants it
1:34:48
to go a certain way. And I think
1:34:50
he didn't like the direction it was going
1:34:52
with Drake at the helm. And he was
1:34:54
like, we're ending that now. It's not even
1:34:56
about the spot. It's about taking
1:34:58
my culture in a direction I want to take it into.
1:35:01
Yeah. So it
1:35:03
looks like he's got a dance album or a
1:35:05
dance project coming up. Like at least just like
1:35:08
house music, EDM music with kind of music. With
1:35:10
who? Kind of music. It's who
1:35:12
he did the- Honestly, nevermind. Yeah, honestly, nevermind
1:35:15
with- Kind music? Kind
1:35:17
of music. Which means
1:35:19
not music. K-E-I-N-E-M-U-S-I-K. Is
1:35:23
that different than kind music? Well, it
1:35:26
looks like the same word, but kind of means
1:35:28
not in German. Is that
1:35:30
the same person that people were going to see
1:35:32
Friday night in Brooklyn? Correct. So
1:35:34
they did, you know that Drake video where you
1:35:37
see him like at the club in like the
1:35:39
south of France or somewhere? With like Rampa and
1:35:41
me and you, Adam Port. Is that one of
1:35:43
his considered classic albums honestly? Nevermind. No,
1:35:46
but it was cool that he does something like that.
1:35:48
And he did it with like Gordo. It goes global
1:35:50
though. Yeah. He saw that
1:35:52
the people are fucking with and he did it. I
1:35:54
like Drake. I truly didn't know. No, no. Cause
1:35:57
I know he's got classics. People say he's got multiple classics. I
1:35:59
didn't know that was one of them. I'm
1:36:01
surprised he's going that route because
1:36:03
people didn't like it. But
1:36:06
isn't that the isn't, let's
1:36:08
make the argument for why he would do it. If
1:36:11
I do my Rappity rap shit, all
1:36:14
people are gonna do is compare it to Kendrick right
1:36:16
now. If I
1:36:18
go in a different genre and
1:36:21
I go to some other black music,
1:36:23
they're gonna call me the colonizer. They're gonna
1:36:26
say that I'm leeching or using these people
1:36:28
for approval. If
1:36:30
I go completely different direction, i.e.
1:36:32
dance music or house music, whatever,
1:36:35
I'm immediately the coolest person
1:36:37
in dance music. Like
1:36:39
there's no one in dance music that is
1:36:42
cooler than Drake. I mean,
1:36:44
except for David Guetta. Shout
1:36:47
out to his family. But like
1:36:49
he's immediately the coolest, right? So
1:36:51
let me go to the place where I'm
1:36:53
most celebrated, not where I'm tolerated. Maybe
1:36:56
get some hits going, maybe win over the
1:36:58
summer on some dance tracks. Now
1:37:00
we're talking about that. And especially we're talking
1:37:02
about amongst a group of people that don't
1:37:04
really care as much about rap beef. If
1:37:07
you out in Mykonos, Pardian, and
1:37:10
you some European motherfucker that don't even understand half
1:37:12
the words that Kendrick said. You're just saying the N
1:37:14
word to speed or whatever. Exactly. Shout
1:37:17
out Poland, bro. And it's like,
1:37:20
if you're doing that, he might be able to get
1:37:22
some buzz, create still
1:37:25
music, be cool amongst
1:37:27
a group of people that don't really
1:37:29
care as much about this beef. Yeah,
1:37:31
this channel's wide open. Like
1:37:33
to your point, this channel is fun. And
1:37:36
then if it works. And if the last
1:37:38
project was sub par, it could only go
1:37:41
up. From here, hello. Yeah, actually. And
1:37:43
if it works, you at least maintain your
1:37:45
buzz. You don't win this battle, but you
1:37:47
maintain your buzz and you got people talking,
1:37:49
you got people dancing, and they're connecting the
1:37:52
times they're gonna have this summer, where they're
1:37:54
gonna be mollied out, they're gonna be coped
1:37:56
out, they're gonna be partying and listen to
1:37:58
Drake and all those good vibes. that you're
1:38:00
feeling while you're listening to stuff, it's hard
1:38:02
not to connect those two things. And
1:38:05
now we go into the fall, and
1:38:09
yeah, we remembered that fucking rough patch and
1:38:11
all this weird shit. Also, you're doing songs
1:38:13
in countries where the age limit is like
1:38:15
16. I was like,
1:38:17
dude, they don't even know what a
1:38:19
minor is. So they're not
1:38:22
even making sense. Vatas, they're minor. Vatas
1:38:24
are minor. I don't understand vatas and
1:38:26
minors. Vai, 16's a problem. The fin
1:38:28
of going to women's is 16 years
1:38:31
old. Oh, man. So
1:38:33
it's kind of the perfect, this
1:38:35
is so overblown. This is blown
1:38:37
out of propulsion. Yeah. He
1:38:41
might've solved this problem perfectly. He
1:38:43
might've did. But
1:38:45
the shit gotta go. He need a couple bops off of this
1:38:47
one. So here's the part of the track. I think he get
1:38:49
a couple. Do you wanna hear? Yeah, I think this is a
1:38:52
league. I haven't heard of you, but. This
1:38:56
is an unfair. This
1:38:59
is an unfair listen. This is
1:39:01
an unfair listen. Why, because it's been nine in my
1:39:03
Molly, that's still my name. That
1:39:05
is the thing about this music, and I'm sure
1:39:07
people who, like, you listen to it,
1:39:09
you can hear the difference. All this
1:39:11
shit sounds the same. Well, that right
1:39:13
there. It's that buildup, and then the
1:39:15
beat drops. But now, like, it's Afrobeats.
1:39:18
And now they're mixing, these DJs mixing
1:39:20
all of these Ethiopian. All Afrobeats don't
1:39:22
sound the same. I'm a piano. That
1:39:24
was an Afrobeat style. All
1:39:29
of that, plus that shit is like
1:39:31
kinda dope. I don't get how a
1:39:34
DJ creates buzz doing that. Welcome
1:39:37
to being old, Doug. Welcome to being
1:39:39
a fucking lad. It's a
1:39:41
different style of music. That's like white people
1:39:43
back in the day going, yo, all rap
1:39:45
sounds the same. Yes, literally. This
1:39:47
is what white people said about rap. How welcome,
1:39:50
Doug, welcome. What, are they just
1:39:52
rapping about guns and killing each other? Damn,
1:39:55
bro, you go to the Hamptons one weekend. Come
1:39:58
back like this. So
1:40:02
I think it could be strategically, I
1:40:05
think it's a smart move. I think you get away
1:40:07
from the rappity rap shit right now. Cause even if
1:40:09
you are doing rap and you try and talk, what
1:40:11
are you going to rap about when you talk when
1:40:13
you're rapping on the rappity rap shit? I'm the best,
1:40:15
I'm the nicest, I get all the bitches, I got
1:40:17
all the money. And every reaction to
1:40:19
that is going to be like, you second nicest, you
1:40:23
second nicest, you know, yeah,
1:40:25
maybe you get the bitches, but maybe future gets
1:40:28
more bitches. They might be young.
1:40:30
They might be young. They might be your homies bitches.
1:40:32
We want to hear about love, we
1:40:37
want to hear about embracing, we want to hear about
1:40:39
sunshine, we want to hear about sandy beaches. Yeah.
1:40:43
I think it's a smart move. I'm curious if it was even a
1:40:45
move or it was just something in the pipeline that he has to
1:40:47
go through with it. Had to be right. Like I wonder if he
1:40:50
did this like four or five months ago. I would think pivot, he's
1:40:52
not a dumb guy. I think this is a pivot. I
1:40:54
mean, he's an incredibly savvy person. But what's he
1:40:56
going to do this whole time? Is
1:40:59
he going to be cooking up an album? Well, I don't know
1:41:01
when this was recorded. What I'm saying is I think
1:41:03
you're right. It's like they had been working on this
1:41:05
for a minute. Maybe they bumped
1:41:07
it up, but you think you would want to hear for summer. Yeah.
1:41:11
But him just cooking up a whole album with this
1:41:13
kind of music guy immediately during
1:41:15
the beat just seems. And I don't know if it's a
1:41:17
whole album or if it's just like a specific song or
1:41:19
a couple songs or something. I don't think that shit takes
1:41:22
that long to make. Nah, you might be right. He's
1:41:25
motherfuckers be putting together songs on the spot and
1:41:27
the shit sound fine. It's not like that two
1:41:29
months ago. So he's had time. He's at least
1:41:31
eight weeks to just cook shit up. You let
1:41:33
that shit run for the summer. You're not going
1:41:35
to beat that. When that shit comes on, it
1:41:37
is a vibe. It's over. Yeah, that
1:41:39
shit is a vibe. They got the remixes
1:41:41
coming still probably. Yo, also here's
1:41:43
the thing that we need to discuss a little bit.
1:41:47
If you're a DJ, I
1:41:51
don't need you having no fucking loyalty to a
1:41:53
record label or nothing. You gonna fuck the
1:41:55
night up with that shit. Stop
1:41:57
it with the, if you're a DJ, you are a new.
1:41:59
a neutral party in
1:42:02
the exactly. You got loyalty to the audience.
1:42:04
You have a loyalty to us, yes. If
1:42:06
you're a DJ associated with one label and
1:42:08
you're only playing their shit at the party,
1:42:10
it gets a little exhausting. We
1:42:12
need you to be able to diversify. You gotta
1:42:15
play shit from the ops, you gotta play shit
1:42:17
from the people you're with. If that label hired
1:42:19
them, say again? If that label hired them and
1:42:21
they know where they biggest checks is coming from.
1:42:24
Hey, you do what you gotta
1:42:26
do, don't fuck up your bag. Yo, party
1:42:28
planners, stop hiring DJs. Did
1:42:31
have loyalty to just one record label
1:42:33
because it's gonna make the party worse,
1:42:35
objectively worse. DJ Mustard, he might be
1:42:37
the best producer in the world right now. I wouldn't
1:42:39
wanna go to a party because he might be like,
1:42:41
man, I can't play no fucking East Coast music or
1:42:43
Drake or nothing, everybody. We're gonna do West Coast a
1:42:46
whole three hours. It's gonna be a whole, yeah. Otherwise,
1:42:48
I'm gonna look like a sellout or people are gonna make videos
1:42:50
when you're playing a Drake song. I don't want you to
1:42:53
have to think about, I want you unencumbered with these
1:42:55
thoughts. Only person who could do it is Metro Boomin,
1:42:57
the most talented musician on the planet. He's
1:42:59
the only person that could play just his hits
1:43:01
and it'll be worth it, in
1:43:04
my opinion. He's got bangers. Yeah,
1:43:06
not wrong. Have you heard Andrew Schulz go, yeah.
1:43:12
Was I doing well, sir? Yeah. Yeah,
1:43:16
yeah, yeah, yeah. No,
1:43:19
do you know what I'm saying about the... Yeah, of course.
1:43:22
I hate what you're saying. You can't have
1:43:24
loyalty as a DJ. I need you to be loyal to us and
1:43:26
what we wanna do. The vibe, you're loyal
1:43:28
to the vibe. We were at
1:43:30
one part of this weekend and it was just one fucking label
1:43:32
they're playing the whole time. It wasn't even like a Drake... Kendrick.
1:43:36
Kendrick beef, it wasn't even that. It had nothing even to
1:43:38
do with it. But it was so
1:43:40
obvious that it was just one label that they're
1:43:42
playing and it was... You
1:43:45
felt it, right? Yeah, we spoke about it. I'm going,
1:43:47
what the fuck is going on? And Al said to
1:43:49
me, he was like, nah, he gotta play this, look.
1:43:52
He's part of them or something like that. And
1:43:54
the next song, same three fucking artists. It's like
1:43:56
when a comic has a political agenda. He's like,
1:43:58
ah, I know where you're going. Yeah, you
1:44:00
get every joke is liberal or every joke
1:44:02
is conservative. You're like fucking I roll. Yeah
1:44:06
Yeah, we should DJ they should put us in
1:44:08
charge we was trying The
1:44:12
party Showing
1:44:15
the song he was getting tight. I was saying to
1:44:17
y'all I suggested one he was like I played that
1:44:19
one already ball played again I
1:44:22
do feel bad I
1:44:25
feel worse listen to the same fucking songs So
1:44:28
I had to step in there. Yeah, it
1:44:30
was for the sake of the party. Yeah,
1:44:32
and the music was too loud, too So
1:44:34
loud so I put my earplugs in God.
1:44:36
I was bugging out dude You can't I
1:44:38
