Episode 432 | Underrated

00:00:01
Speaker 1: The volume. Okay, Ror, you can start talking whenever you're ready, just chewing as Mr.

00:00:17
Speaker 2: He can beat off to it later.

00:00:20
Speaker 1: That can just be our cold opening right right there. Matter of fact, that's how we start the episode, right right what Jamaras said, Yo, I don't like some of our listeners comments. Man, somebody said, since I got new teeth, it looked like y'all cloned me.

00:00:33
Speaker 3: They've been calling you Chip Skylark, and that ship has been frying me.

00:00:37
Speaker 4: Who's Chip Skylark?

00:00:39
Speaker 2: Old ass?

00:00:40
Speaker 3: It's the guy from Fairly O Parents. I know it's yep, I.

00:00:46
Speaker 4: Know who that is.

00:00:48
Speaker 2: Fairly Our Parents is a good show. Fairly Appearents is my favorite cartoon all.

00:00:50
Speaker 1: Time, really over like Rocco's Modern Life rug Rats.

00:00:55
Speaker 3: Yes, it's my favorite all time. Interesting, that's a weird pic. Really, I don't think. I don't think you're a little you're a little older than me. Just a buy it tad. So that's why some of those things were relevance.

00:01:11
Speaker 2: You Now, out of.

00:01:12
Speaker 3: All the cartoons, I watched drug Rats the most, right, I feel like every person born in ninety four did. But favorite was Fairly Appearance. Was hysterical to me.

00:01:21
Speaker 1: Yeah, I wonder if Amar is gonna want to watch like if I throw on the rug Rats, if feel like that, or if her brain is already wired to like what Pepper Pig looks like?

00:01:30
Speaker 3: Coco melon is crack for kids? So do you let her watch that? She's watched it a few times? She picks on her iPad. Now what she wants to watch? She found some like German cartoon.

00:01:44
Speaker 1: Yeah, like of all the languages, small all come on, bro, can.

00:01:50
Speaker 2: We blur that right?

00:01:51
Speaker 1: Like?

00:01:52
Speaker 4: Just blur it all? Right?

00:01:53
Speaker 1: Thank you?

00:01:55
Speaker 2: Yeah?

00:01:55
Speaker 1: So, like of all the language she should probably learn Spanish. They teach a Mandarin that she started the K. By the way, guys, I didn't know what three K was. I thought he was a rapper, but apparently three K is a thing?

00:02:06
Speaker 2: Was that a thing? When to anyone else? We called it head start back in the day.

00:02:10
Speaker 1: Okay, well, she's not three yet, but she's already with she's with three year olds. Okay, yeah, she she switched more from daycare to like a real school.

00:02:19
Speaker 2: Oh, which reminds me. I owe Game an apology.

00:02:22
Speaker 4: Mmm, he pressed you?

00:02:23
Speaker 1: Huh No, I have not seen or spoken to Game in quite some time. And matter of fact, last night we spoke on sexon it was great. I should not diagnose people because someone tried to diagnose my daughter and I was ready to storm at that woman. Oh yeah you did say that. She they you told us that she did? I say it on Mike Yeah, okay, yeah, well yeah, we switched out of there and pre diagnosis. She's already ahead, she's with three year olds and she's two.

00:02:51
Speaker 4: But what did she try to diagnose mar.

00:02:54
Speaker 1: Adhd which you can't even have at her age? And you're not a doctor, like you're just at a daycare. Oh that's crazy, and listen, childcare we've talked about. I don't understand how y'all do that job. You guys are incredible, but you're not a doctor.

00:03:08
Speaker 4: A white woman. Yeah, how does that happen? Like when as a white parent, when you see other whites white we all go to the same meetings. But when when a white teacher tries to like diagnose your white daughter, what is it?

00:03:21
Speaker 2: What does that have to do with race?

00:03:23
Speaker 4: Point? I'm just saying because like I don't I never really think all doctor should be Asian is I know, I've never seen I've never seen like white people try to diagnose like white kids at a daycare, usually they do that the black kids, okay, like they usually like they usually just think like all white kids are brilliant, brilliant that day.

00:03:40
Speaker 1: I don't think that's how it works, you know. And I think people with ADHD are brilliant in their own right.

00:03:47
Speaker 4: But I just see, I have a theory that we all have ADHD. And you said that though I think everybody was playing.

00:03:54
Speaker 1: That's a theory, and I just feel like technology has forced all our brains to have it.

00:03:59
Speaker 4: I was about to say I had one of these we all have eighty A.

00:04:02
Speaker 3: Yeah, No, y'all can be easily distracted, it's not ADHD. I just don't want your to downplay ADHD. ADHD, No, I have, I have ADHD. I'm spoking.

00:04:11
Speaker 4: I'm speaking from like a survivor standpoint, like I'm surviving through this this. I don't know, I want to call it a disease, but like, yeah, with this illness, I'm not not an illness.

00:04:20
Speaker 1: With this ability, you're not only a spokesperson, you're also a client.

00:04:24
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think we all have it, I hear, because I don't think anybody can focus, like put on a movie and just watch people like your friends, just watch them. Just put a movie on. You're gonna watch a movie and see who could actually really watch the movie.

00:04:37
Speaker 1: But that's the majority of them have phone addiction and short attention spans. That's different and ADHD. What's funny is I do have in my brain which I did even talk to Key about this. If we put something on, is it something that I can be on my phone and watch or something I have to watch? I hate I feel like you because some no, because I'm not the person that is on their phone while watching something. But is it one of those shows that I'm just gonna have to stop everything that I'm doing to make sure I can like get every detail or is this something that I can, like, all right, I can check an email and still be caught up.

00:05:10
Speaker 4: That means the show is not good if you do that.

00:05:12
Speaker 1: Some shows are just meant to just turn your rain off. That's what reality TV is for, Like it's to turn your rain off for a second. Everything needs to like move your mind.

00:05:21
Speaker 3: No.

00:05:21
Speaker 4: No, if I'm watching Baddies, I can be on my phone and watch Baddies at the same time.

00:05:24
Speaker 1: That's one of those phones off.

00:05:28
Speaker 4: I don't got to be super locked in to know what's going on with baddies. I know who about to fight. I know what they're fighting about. Somebody ripped somebody's wig.

00:05:34
Speaker 2: Like I come out, babe, what I miss? They fighting again?

00:05:37
Speaker 4: They still fighting out. I gotta understand.

00:05:40
Speaker 1: Speaking of which, I want to thank both you guys all her fault. I'm on episode five. I cannot wait to leave here to finish the entire series.

00:05:49
Speaker 2: You still have an episode? No, I had to know good with shows. Yeah, I'll binge.

00:05:57
Speaker 1: I'll binge two seasons in one day if I can, Like, I'll move from the TV, put it on my phone while I'm doing errands, like I'm one of those people. But I will say, and we're going to talk about this for the remainder of the week, so no spoiler alerts yet. It's one of the best shows I've seen in quite some time. Told you it's incredible.

00:06:13
Speaker 4: It belongs in that same COVID year with the Undoing Yeah and the Night of and Yeah, it's in that like it feels someone. When I started watching it, I was like, this feels like it should have came out during the pandemic when we had all of those great shows.

00:06:27
Speaker 1: I was telling Jamarson TEXTI yesterday, putting Shiv and Sugar together may have been the greatest casting call I've seen in quite some time.

00:06:35
Speaker 3: Shiv would be Chevron from Succession in Sugar from the Bear.

00:06:40
Speaker 2: I didn't recognize.

00:06:41
Speaker 3: I recognized Sugar, but I couldn't figure out where she was from, which means you're doing a really good job at acting if I'm like, I know your face, but I can't pick out the character.

00:06:49
Speaker 2: And I was like, oh, I.

00:06:50
Speaker 4: Know, it's a good show, and it's like a you know, a thriller and drama and all these things. But one time she was walking around the house, she had them pants on. She was she was holding back. She asked, no, no, no, no, me tell you. Did you watch Succession? Yeah?

00:07:02
Speaker 2: Yeah, shit been holding since.

00:07:03
Speaker 3: Season I wrote it in the group chat, and I felt creepy, So I unscent it.

00:07:07
Speaker 4: You saw it.

00:07:09
Speaker 2: I wonder what that on top.

00:07:11
Speaker 3: I was watching it because and I felt real creepy because it.

00:07:13
Speaker 2: Was like eight thirty in the morning, nine o'clock in the morning.

00:07:15
Speaker 4: I was like, I was looking at as.

00:07:16
Speaker 2: I was like, man, shiit ass fat as fuck. I don't even know.

00:07:21
Speaker 1: What we used to joke, you know those like quick cuts they used to do in succession, like how the cinematography is we used to joke. I wonder how many times the DP just did that to Shiv's thighs. Yeah, like sh they styled her so well in that show that like they always picked pants that that held it up too.

00:07:38
Speaker 3: It's looked like she got thicker when I was watching it in this I'm like, Shiv got thick, Like ship look good. I'm sorry, Sarah Snooky, Thank.

00:07:46
Speaker 2: You Sarah Snook.

00:07:47
Speaker 1: But to your point of Sugar and Shiv, like both those people you think would be type cast because they both have iconic characters and other shows, they don't act like those characters at all. Yeah, all her fault Like even like I think is a great actor, but Lawrence, But Lawrence acts the same way and insecure as he did in Top Gun. Yeah, so.

00:08:10
Speaker 2: You know he's a good act Like he's great in the show.

00:08:13
Speaker 4: But then I definitely like, yo, Lawrence gotta go get.

00:08:19
Speaker 1: Maybe Lawrence is just that iconic of a character. It's like you know how Laura's leave La and his flying jets right, j ellis to.

00:08:25
Speaker 3: Actually, but even when I was watching him and all her fault. I was just waiting for him to say, fuck, that's I was just waiting for him to say.

00:08:34
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's forever, He's forever, Like that's.

00:08:37
Speaker 1: Well. I mean, this is the only spoiler I will give because it's not that big of a pivotal part of all her fault when you find out that Lawrence is fucking sugar. In my head, I was like, Manas was right, he dol like white girls.

00:08:50
Speaker 2: Stop.

00:08:50
Speaker 4: You tried to call it all into a whole new.

00:08:52
Speaker 2: Same universe. That was Lawrence.

00:08:55
Speaker 1: He just moved on, and it's all her faults. East's fault.

00:08:58
Speaker 2: That's the only problem with that show though.

00:09:00
Speaker 1: And I mean, Lu's probably gonna call me gay, but that's not There's no way.

00:09:05
Speaker 4: Laurence, like, look at Lawrence. He's not dating an older white woman. He's a good he's.

00:09:12
Speaker 2: A very good looking guy.

00:09:12
Speaker 1: I'm not saying, first of all, ship she is beautiful, but I'm just saying, like they're not even in the same age bracket.

00:09:19
Speaker 3: Well, Abby, Abby isn't old. They're probably he's probably older than her. White people aged. Worst myself is what thirty eight.

00:09:27
Speaker 4: NOA she doesn't look that, she doesn't even look at oh, you're being me.

00:09:31
Speaker 2: She don't even look at.

00:09:32
Speaker 1: Oh, well, the roles that they put her in, like right there, she doesn't it looks amazing. But when they make her sugar and make her uh least leah, like they're trying to make it look like a she's like an old addict on that show.

00:09:44
Speaker 2: So they made her look like a younger sister.

00:09:46
Speaker 3: Yah, you're funny, is bro. I'm crying, but I don't know. Huh, great show, great show.

00:09:51
Speaker 1: I'm so glad you guys haven't spoiled anything. I do not know if we owe the husband in apology or he's the biggest sol I want to talk.

00:09:58
Speaker 2: Because yeah, yeah, for you to get here.

00:10:00
Speaker 1: Yeah, anybody used to have a bunch of theories. Now I'm kind of I have none. Everything they try to make it seem like it's going to be something. I mean, at the end of the day, I just think the adopted mom did everything.

00:10:12
Speaker 4: See that I'm dooing. I ain't gonna like I was on the side of the sun. Did it at once and not undoing? I'm sure it was yea, yeah, I think you yelled it out.

00:10:19
Speaker 1: I thought the person they passing the sidewalk did it?

00:10:21
Speaker 2: I thought Extra number three did it.

00:10:22
Speaker 4: I can't wait to finish this though, so we could really talk about it.

00:10:25
Speaker 1: Is it just one season? Yeah, it's like a limited series, right, or does it? And where it looks like it could be a season two?

00:10:31
Speaker 2: No, it's a limited series.

00:10:33
Speaker 4: Okay, sure, I don't see them bring a season two for this.

00:10:36
Speaker 2: That's what like.

00:10:38
Speaker 1: I like limited series because I go in with the expectations that I know will get a conclusion. I can move on with my life. I hate when you get to like season three and season four isn't get picked up, and it's just like, why did we do this?

00:10:50
Speaker 4: Now?

00:10:50
Speaker 1: Now my whole life is fucked up because I'm thinking about what's going on.

00:10:52
Speaker 4: I'm still never letting go to Messiah. I'm sorry. I'm gonna bring that up every time we talk about great shows that never got a season two.

00:10:58
Speaker 1: I couldn't get the first EPISO, so was cool. I was just waiting for it to pick up.

00:11:02
Speaker 4: On the Messiah. Yeah, you know, you only watch one episode. Oh you can't this conversation, you gotta watch it. You have to watch that season. That's one of the best shows that they just canceled because people were offended that they were trying to depict the Messiah and all, yeah, like what's what the fuck are we talking? Wait, Jesus, we don't know. We didn't get a season two. Oh so oh we don't know. We do not know. This is the problem here, This is why we need a season too. We have questions.

00:11:31
Speaker 1: It's like when they opened the tomb and there was nobody three days, like we were going to season two is in the tomb?

00:11:38
Speaker 4: Yeah? Man, they would cancel season two because people are offended.

00:11:41
Speaker 3: That's how I feel about love Craft Country though, Like yeah, that look that was heartbreaking, like bro Emmy nominations, Critical acclaim, everything like cult fan favorite and y'all canceled it? God was it was telling the truth about ship might back. People will stepping into their power.

00:12:00
Speaker 4: Yo, what do y'all feel about the Diddy Dock being number one in forty nine countries? That shit is like robbling like Stranger Things numbers and this. We can say what we want, but that shit is doing some incredible shit on Netflix. That's all I'm saying. Shut out to fifty and the team, like, listen to how you feel about the dock is how you feel? And what a on Tandra Stranger Things, Yo, listen that. Yeah, it was real stranger things like that is like listen number one in forty nine countries, bro, say what you want man, That's that's some incredible shit they did.

00:12:36
Speaker 2: I just saw.

00:12:38
Speaker 1: Torre had brought up something interesting because you know that clip that we've all seen for years of big saying you know, I feel PARANOI, I feel like someone's gonna kill me. Yeah, and then then in the dock they cut right to March ninth, nineteen ninety seven to make it look like so I was like, Yo, I did that interview with him before the first album. He's talking about the streets, he's not talking about puffies, about the industry. He's scared, he's selling drugs and he's terrified someone's going to kill him. So, yes, that doc has so much factual shape. But how they manipulated a lot of that, yeah, should be studied of how like that's what worries me sometimes too, especially like we see it now with Twitter and hip hop. Now, just like all these young kids that know nothing have all these strong opinions.

00:13:23
Speaker 2: In forty nine countries, there's a lot of people.

00:13:24
Speaker 1: That are getting a lot of misinformation and this is their first time being introduced to this story, like huff didn't kill Tupac, and now that's a narrative.

00:13:33
Speaker 4: I remember, what's the guy's name from TMZ Dan No, not Van, Harvey, Harvey.

00:13:40
Speaker 1: Oh you know it even Harvey Levin. No, no, Harvey Kaitel.

00:13:45
Speaker 4: That's acting. That's the actor, Harvey Levin, right, Harvey Levan. He's a great he's a great. Shit up. He was talking. I saw a clip of him talking about the fact that, uh, you know, in the dock some of the footage of did he talking to his lawyer? He was like, he can't believe that that's in it, Like, why would did he even record that? Yeah, I told you my theory that he was like, it's like lawyer, it's like client lawyer, I mean lawyer client, Like you know, privacy privilege.

00:14:15
Speaker 2: Even in jail, nobody can listen to your commisation.

00:14:18
Speaker 4: Like the fact that he was recording that and didn't tell his his lawyer that he was recording those conversations. Oh yeah, you know.

00:14:25
Speaker 1: That could have really be ensued by your own lawyers would be funny.

00:14:30
Speaker 4: I just thought. But even even in watching the doc I did like things like that. I was like, I don't know if the camera should have been rolling right there. Yeah.

00:14:36
Speaker 1: And speaking of Harvey Levin back to our Kardashians versus the Kennedy's conversation, TMZ is also tied to the Kardashians. Like, the first case that Harvey Levin even really covered was the O. J. Simpson trial to like get his name out there. So the more I thought about it after our episode, I yeah, it's rothschild Kardashian and then Kennedy.

00:15:00
Speaker 4: Well, what's the head of the DuPonts made somewhere in there? What's the head of the Health Advisory? What's his name?

00:15:06
Speaker 1: Luigi?

00:15:07
Speaker 4: No, what's the Kennedy that's the head? Is a Robert rfk R k Jr. What is his role again, I'm.

00:15:13
Speaker 1: Sorry, head of vaccines or something?

00:15:16
Speaker 4: Head of vaccine, head of vaccines. No, he's the Secretary of Health and Human Services. Did y'all see the video going around him doing twenty pull ups yesterday? No, it's impressive a guy his age like being able to do twenty pull ups.

00:15:34
Speaker 1: Listen, man, I just recently found out he's married to Cheryl from Curby Your Enthusiasm, So.

00:15:39
Speaker 4: Really, yes? Oh, shit, I didn't know that simulation. In a simulation, I swear, nothing makes sense. Man, while we're here, congrats to our guy, my son Mondamie just appointed him as the criminal Justice Advisor for New York City. And I don't like them, man, I don't like how they did my guy, my son and all, Like every single headline is ex con rapper, Like, yes, my son go to jail, but the amount of things my son has done since he's gotten out of jail.

00:16:11
Speaker 1: Enough he should just be labeled as x con.

00:16:13
Speaker 4: You know, they got too, you know, they gotta do that. They got to try to make the correlation. He's a I mean I think that I think that that's a stat though. Yeah, but yeah, put that on the paper, put that on an x con, and now I am the head of who would understand justice more than an ex con? Yeah, Like, I think that's I saw people that was kind of like, damn, they fucked up for that. I'm on the opposite side of that, man, Like, look, how look how much somebody can change? Look how far somebody can come? Pause? Look how you know that was crazy? Like, y'all gotta start respecting the pause, man, you gotta say Pauls first. Yeah, but I'm just saying I didn't realize, you know, in a minute. Yeah, anticipate you know what I'm saying, how crazy that was gonna land. But anyway, yeah, I think that was dope though, for them to put that on the page, like, yeah, I am an ex con. Yeah, and now look what I am. So shoutut to my song. Another bronze leedgend worry. I'll know that of course. So yeah, shout out the my song. Shout out to Mom Donnie for just going in there and just doing shit different.

00:17:10
Speaker 1: Man. Fuck it, that's what I'm about. Fuck all this shit up.

00:17:12
Speaker 4: Do everything higher, everybody, give Tasha Kate ahead of something. Put all of them in there, ahead of the post here, yeah, put all of them in there. Let's just see what page six. Let's just see where ship lands. Man, that's what I'm on. Let's just see what ship lands.

00:17:28
Speaker 1: I'll take this because I know my son does have very good intentions. I'll take that over Eric Adams giving his side check, corterating salary just to show up, sorry, no show job. Yeah, just to list how much you think they're paying my song. I'm sure we can. I mean it's our tax dollars they have to tell us.

00:17:45
Speaker 2: But yet I don't know.

00:17:46
Speaker 1: What that that job usually offers you?

00:17:49
Speaker 4: Who and can we find out who held that position in the last uh the last term?

00:17:55
Speaker 1: That's the chief of police probably. I just want to see something, you know.

00:17:59
Speaker 4: Like, I've never even heard of this position in the you know, in the city. So I'm just I just want to know who was the last what is it, head of criminal.

00:18:09
Speaker 2: Criminal justice advisor. I don't know if it was really a role.

00:18:12
Speaker 4: Who was the criminal justice advisor underneath the Eric Adams administration.

00:18:18
Speaker 1: I mean, listen, it makes more sense than making Ben Carson the head of urban development. He's a doctor of housing. Whatever the fuck he did.

00:18:28
Speaker 2: I don't know.

00:18:28
Speaker 1: I love that our government could just make up fucking titles and get people ship.

00:18:32
Speaker 4: What if we find out that Eric Adams girlfriend that was her position last last term she was.

00:18:37
Speaker 1: That would make sense though she was the head of it would make sense. It would make sense because the crypt population is tripled.

00:18:42
Speaker 2: In the last three years.

00:18:45
Speaker 4: Everybody is completely different.

00:18:49
Speaker 2: The crip population.

00:18:50
Speaker 4: It was just bloods now, it's it's running rampant with the ops. Yeah.

00:18:55

00:21:04
Speaker 1: So, I don't know if y'all seen with that clip where we were talking about all the underrated albums from twenty eleven, like it being an underrated year of music is going crazy? Like yeah, still no, it's like bled over into my personal life where friends are just calling me to debate years of hip hop because I think a.

00:21:20
Speaker 4: Lot of we must never know what conversations are going to take, Like how was that that?

00:21:24
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's going crazy.

00:21:25
Speaker 3: Our most viral clip is if you're talking about pepsi, you really never Yeah.

00:21:28
Speaker 1: But that's why, Like when people would ask me for advice on podcasts, there's remarking this and that. I used to give them answers. Now it's good, but I have no idea. I have no idea what's gonna work. I don't know them all. Hating pepsis is the reason why people tune into our podcast apparently, and.

00:21:45
Speaker 4: The reason why we can't get a pepsi spot.

00:21:47
Speaker 1: I think I think I was even debating that's a stupid clip. We shouldn't even put that out.

00:21:54
Speaker 2: It's going to even la like even want to listen to that.

00:21:57
Speaker 1: Well, Yeah, No, I've been debating a lot of my friends just on the phone about years, and I've noticed a lot of my friends from Mall's generation have been arguing ninety eight to me, which I makes total sense.

00:22:11
Speaker 2: I've alway understood nineteen ninety eight being there, But.

00:22:14
Speaker 1: I kind of feel like I can argue my era, Like I think five is super underrated.

00:22:19
Speaker 4: Oh five might be the worst she in rap.

00:22:21
Speaker 1: It was definitely a very strange fucking time. Yes, snap music was taking over. I think that was probably when Nas decided that he wanted to titles album hip Hop is Dead. It was a very very strange time. But if you go to five, like, there still was great albums at that time.

00:22:38
Speaker 4: Lady Registration and Documentary Okay, two for two, b Common.

00:22:42
Speaker 1: Okay, Incredible, gz TM one on One, Classic You Said Game, Documentary, Massacre Carter two, Little Brother Minstrel Show was one of my favorite albums ever.

00:22:52
Speaker 2: Like five, az A Wall was crazy.

00:22:55
Speaker 3: I'd like to shout out Certified by David Banner because play is one of the greatest songs of all time.

00:23:00
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was. I was just texting with with Royce yesterday. David Banner might be one of the most underrated producers that we have if you go through his catalog. We need to give David Banner way more flowers anytime he gets brought up. We should continue to do that.

00:23:15
Speaker 2: But that's a side note.

00:23:16
Speaker 1: I don't I think five yes was hip hop and probably one of the weirdest places ever. Did look like it was going in a completely different direction, but you still get Tony Ao thoughts of a predicant Fellain. That is a straight album. Little Kim to the Naked Truth.

00:23:31
Speaker 2: What was the single on that was?

00:23:34
Speaker 1: It?

00:23:34
Speaker 2: Was it put your Lighters Up?

00:23:36
Speaker 3: Light?

00:23:36
Speaker 2: I was about to say, was it lighters up?

00:23:38
Speaker 4: Yo?

00:23:38
Speaker 1: Little Kim had some joints when I was in high school. Like people give her her nineties run, but they failed to mention the two thousands that she had. But yeah, I have five as one of my favorite under rated years of hip hop.

00:23:56
Speaker 4: Yeah, looking at this list, that was It's made me six on there. That's worth going back to.

00:24:03
Speaker 1: Paul Wall Peoples Champions a great album. Bun be Trill, great album.

00:24:07
Speaker 4: There's a lot of shit jeezy okay, one on one, Oh Bean's dropped that year.

00:24:14
Speaker 2: Yeah, B by Common is a very important album too.

00:24:17
Speaker 1: By the way, that is a certified classic album without question. I think despite the radio sounding fucking insane, this was an incredible year.

00:24:27
Speaker 4: Very about it's some good. I mean this was the documentary to become in Carter two. I mean it's that alone. It's definitely some some some great albums right there.

00:24:40
Speaker 1: How like, I haven't really thought this through, and I'm not even trying to do like.

00:24:43
Speaker 2: Shock value takes here.

00:24:45
Speaker 1: How upset would your generation be if I thought maybe two thousand twenty ten could rival in nineteen ninety to nineteen ninety.

00:24:53
Speaker 4: Nine the year two thousands, Well.

00:24:57
Speaker 1: I guess it would be two thousand and nine. Then I can two thousand and two nineties versus two thousands. I think, yes, the nineties probably get you there with absolute classic albums, but I think it's closer than people would would think.

00:25:13
Speaker 4: I don't think so.

00:25:14
Speaker 1: I think the nineties is the greatest ever in music ever period or just hip hop, hip hop fair and R and B.

00:25:25
Speaker 4: Definitely R and B.

00:25:26
Speaker 1: Definitely R and B Yeah, you're not wrong with R and B, so now you're not so much so now you're talk about hip hop in the nineties.

00:25:33
Speaker 3: As far as albums, Yeah, it depends on what kind of hip hop you like, what your preference of hip hop is, because if you want just straight hip hop.

00:25:41
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like there were a couple of fact that y'all.

00:25:43
Speaker 4: Got the snap era in from two thousand, two thousand and ten. That's in there, y'all lose, but.

00:25:47
Speaker 2: The snap era didn't.

00:25:48
Speaker 1: Like that was singles like that that invented the ringtone, that invented what became streaming of a single. Like, there were still great that people were still making great albums in the two thousands.

00:25:57
Speaker 3: We still had the rap with the singing hook, Like that originated in the nineties, but it really jumped off in the two thousands, and I feel like that's such an important part of hip hop. I feel like it's what hip hop is missing now, honestly. But the rap with the singing hook, that's that's two thousand shit heavy.

00:26:17
Speaker 1: I would even know about that.

00:26:19
Speaker 3: Like I said, it started in the nineties, but that was the thing in the two thousands.

00:26:23
Speaker 4: You definitely listen to more music from the nineties than you do from the two early two thousand and rap no period in your life.

00:26:29
Speaker 2: No, I don't, I don't.

00:26:30
Speaker 4: I can name two Janet albums that you bang from the nineties top to bottom, Whitney Album top to bottom, Mariah Carey top to bottom.

00:26:40
Speaker 3: Okay, right, we'll be doing okay. But I also listened to a lot of two thousands R and B.

00:26:46
Speaker 4: You listen to singles, No, listen.

00:26:48
Speaker 2: I listened to albums I have, Destiny's Cat.

00:26:53
Speaker 3: I was gonna say my top three favorite albums are from the two thousands, like R and B albums The Emancipation of Me, Me, Channel, Orange, Offer You by Janna Jackson, and Destiny Fulfilled by Destiny's Shout. Those would be in my top five favorite albums all all of.

00:27:08
Speaker 1: Those are from the two thousands, Yo, Voodoo, Who Is Jill Scott, Mama's Gun, Songs in a Minor, Lovers Rock eighty seven oh one, maybe The Diary of Alicia Keys Uh, the Aliyah album Get Lifted, John Legend.

00:27:24
Speaker 2: Don't see why.

00:27:27
Speaker 4: I don't like that. I don't like that.

00:27:28
Speaker 2: I don't like that.

00:27:29
Speaker 1: I don't like that Get Lifted as a classic album, Dream Love, Hate, shit Neo's Hole catalog justin future sex love sounds come on, Like what are we talking.

00:27:40
Speaker 3: Chris Brown's first album, which I still to this day think is his best album, or at least one of the top three, Like what we're doing.

00:27:47
Speaker 1: I also hate doing this though, because like as much as yeah, I do like agree that ninety eight is probably the best year of music. I was also eight, like I do remember it, but like Maul can speak more to that than I can, like to me, I have two thousand and three above it just because I was thirteen and like really actually remember it and went and bought those CDs. I had to really go back to appreciate ninety eight, like Volumec was one of the first albums I bought, But like I don't know, I was.

00:28:18
Speaker 2: I was young. What do you I had no life experience trying.

00:28:22
Speaker 1: To listen to Capital Punishment, I don't have like a connection of like I was outside with that, but like get Rich, I was outside.

00:28:30
Speaker 3: What do you remember about ninety eight in music? More like what did it feel like outside?

00:28:34
Speaker 2: Was it hot?

00:28:35
Speaker 4: Was?

00:28:35
Speaker 1: Like?

00:28:36
Speaker 2: What it about like.

00:28:39
Speaker 4: Dark?

00:28:41
Speaker 3: No, because I remember twenty sixteen, I remember when the air felt like when fucking the Life of Pablo dropped, Like, what did it feel like in ninety eight? What albums do you remember? Memories do you remember from that time.

00:28:52
Speaker 4: I mean, when Jay dropped Hard Knocked Life, I think that was a obviously Jay was you know, he was making noise and he was he was, he was hot before you know, Hard Knocked Life. But when that Hard Knock Light, when the songs dropped, not even an album, when the song dropped.

00:29:09
Speaker 1: You were one of the kids in the chorus, right, no, fuck you you could.

00:29:14
Speaker 4: You could literally From that point on, you can see how music business, like a lot of things changed because that was the beginning of Jay's ascension into like becoming a superstar and then becoming a mogul and things like that. Based off of that one song like that, the Hard Knock Life song changed Jay's entire trajectory. But then you also had DMX dropping I think two albums that year.

00:29:39
Speaker 1: YEP number one it was.

00:29:42
Speaker 4: You know, we don't talk about him no more, he's XI from the culture. But the R album R Kelly with that did that year Juvenile and with you know, cash Money started doing around that time. It was just a it was just a Lauryn Hill The mistagic Cation album came out ninety eight, that little mixtape, Yeah, just a little little something shit put together just to feed the streets. Like that was that was a year of you know, these are legends that we're talking about that all dropped and was in the ecosystem that year. Brandy Never Say.

00:30:14
Speaker 2: Never, That's my favorite Brandy album.

00:30:16
Speaker 4: Yeah, Like it was just the music and then not only the music, something else that we don't really pay a lot of attention to videos the way videos started looking around ninety eight ninety nine, that's when you started to see, like, you know, our cultures was like these are superstars. You started seeing them on the trls and things like that, and different network seeing them. You know, if it was like an MTV beach House thing. You see a bunch of white kids on spring Break like dancing to like Dmax and Jay and these guys, and you're like, what the fuck, Like everybody fuck with these dudes. So ninety eight was definitely a pivotal year in the cultures music, but also I think business too, Like around that time, you know, people started to really pay attention to their brands and wanting to do things outside of music, just like everything. Just the energy shifted in ninety.

00:31:12
Speaker 2: Eight, wasn't it Black Stars ninety eight two?

00:31:14
Speaker 1: Right?

00:31:15
Speaker 2: Mostefan quality probably.

00:31:16
Speaker 1: Just looking at that list though outcast equimin I Lauryn Hill, Big Pun, jay Z, two DMX albums, Juvenile Brandy. Yeah, that that's a wild three hundred and sixty five days. Yeah, that's like you may go broke going to the fucking CD store for that. But I mean, oh three again, it is just probably more I mean demeriics. We're four years apart, so oh three, that may be actually a big gap for us because I was thirteen.

00:31:42
Speaker 2: I was in third grade.

00:31:43
Speaker 4: Yeah, the marriage, don't know what two thousand and three was. You knew about all the new snacks, which she ain't no nothing about no music though.

00:31:50
Speaker 3: Okay, so don't don't do that, don't so what I what I remember about three?

00:31:56
Speaker 2: Right?

00:31:56
Speaker 3: My favorite jay Z album is the Black Album, Okay, And I don't want to make this the whole cast, but that introduce I would say that that I don't want to say introduced me to hip hop, right, because I grew up on hip hop. My dad was a DJ. The way my dad played that album that introduced me to a love of hip hop that the Black album is probably the first hip hop album I can recite from tops. I was able to recite from top to bottom. Like you said, I have a very special connection to the album because it never stopped playing. And then when the fucking the DVD with maul in it that one, Yeah we gave malt whatever that that that one is he gave you to key City or whatever.

00:32:37
Speaker 2: Yeah, Rory always.

00:32:39
Speaker 3: Jokes around that like, yeah, I remember my dad saying Joe j is retiring this Like I remember like.

00:32:48
Speaker 1: That, like yeah to me, to me like that was to me, I'm sure I could be debated.

00:32:55
Speaker 2: It felt like first superstar.

00:32:57
Speaker 1: Rap album of all time, Like Jay became a superstar at that time in my opinion, and I like, yeah, I hadn't seen that, Like yeah, with the we went to the theaters to watch Faded Black, Like it felt like the first superstar thing hip hop had to me.

00:33:11
Speaker 2: I know people older than me.

00:33:13
Speaker 1: Maybe call me crazy, but to me, it was like, oh, this is this isn't just something I like the whole world, Like my mom knew what the Fade to Black movie was, so yeah, oh three kind of felt like that Shift. But just at thirteen, I got Get Rich ja Z Black Album, TI Trap Music, Outcast, Speaker Box, Love Below, Diplomatic Community, Diary, Releasa Keys, Dangerously in Love. I mean, he's cancel from the culture. But Chocolate Factory might be the best Arclly album, Like there was just a lot that year. Ludicris, Chicken and Beer is a personal classic to me, trying to think what else.

00:33:52
Speaker 4: According to hip hop, that's the hip hop oracle.

00:33:55
Speaker 2: I mean to me that he defines hop.

00:33:58
Speaker 4: Ninety eight to old three is JASP so that that makes sense. Ninety eight We all knock Life. O three was the concert fade, the black coming off the blueprint, Like yeah, that for sure he's a piece of shit, but that all Kelly J shook that part of the show.

00:34:15
Speaker 2: And wearing white and all that. Oh my god, I see.

00:34:19
Speaker 4: I was there.

00:34:19
Speaker 1: I was.

00:34:20
Speaker 4: It's a difference when you watching it and when you was in the garden that night, Like that energy in theaters.

00:34:25
Speaker 1: I was like, holy shit, how do I get a white jacket?

00:34:27
Speaker 4: That energy was like insane, like them just standing on stage like not saying nothing, all white like that image that moment was like, that's when to me one of the moments in hip hop where it was like, damn, you could really be from the hood and become a star and this shit. Yeah.

00:34:48
Speaker 1: My favorite moment of that movie is when slick Rick has the pillowcase and it's given all his jewelry to ghost Face so he go perform Summertime with Beyonnest. Yeah, that was like the coolest shit I've ever seen my life, slick Rick just pulling up like yeah, yeah, I got you and just giving him all the jewelry.

00:35:04
Speaker 4: Crazy great time and music.

00:35:06
Speaker 1: It's gonna sound crazy, but Bad Boys two soundtrack was also three.

00:36:20
Speaker 1: No, nigga, I'm sorry. We were bumping Cheetah girls. We were bumping Cheetah girls like that was at thirteen. I had ship at thirty five. I still crushes on all three of them. But it was four of them for you. You conveniently forgot the white one didn't drop brother. No, she was in the movie, but she wasn't in the group when they put music out.

00:36:38
Speaker 4: Yes she was.

00:36:39
Speaker 2: Oh, I don't know.

00:36:39
Speaker 1: I don't think when they were actually three l W they that girl wasn't in. There was only three lgb's not in three three Little Women. But neither is Raven Raven's not in three W either way? Is it?

Speaker 4: Three W?

00:36:56
Speaker 2: Yeah, didn't Cameron right? Like the hit record three W you fucking Lion?

00:37:02
Speaker 1: I swear to God, I think Cameron wrote Wait, Cameron three l W.

00:37:08
Speaker 2: It's funny when you find out, like.

00:37:11
Speaker 1: Yeah, Cameron wrote no more for three wises that came computers. If you really listen to that flow that's broken promises, you think there's a reference track of Cam absolutely promises.

00:37:30
Speaker 2: In different numbers and numbers.

00:37:36
Speaker 1: You get Cam.

00:37:38
Speaker 4: Yo.

00:37:41
Speaker 3: Oh man, that's how Now I gotta look at what else camun rolle?

00:37:45
Speaker 2: Like yeah again.

00:37:47
Speaker 1: It's just funny hearing those stories of like Nas writing big Willie style fifty writing puffs verse on Let's get it, like one of the most iconic Diddy verses, just a young Curtis Jackson crazy my name is Diddy, I run this city that he went.

00:38:04
Speaker 4: To now executive producing the records. It's just crazy is life? Life is just it's awful circle it comes back, man, So.

00:38:12
Speaker 2: Maybe they should have Cameron on the view. Isn't she on the View now?

00:38:15
Speaker 4: One of the girls from Yeah, Adrian Adrian Balon. Yeah, she's tholen the View. I thought they switched that cast so much. I don't know who's on the View no more Cam was on. Cam wrote part of Crush on You. I low Kim.

00:38:28
Speaker 3: He has writing credits Crush on You and Gone by Kanye West. Well, I mean he's wraps on it.

00:38:36
Speaker 2: Vieta makes sense. Sorry my bad. I think I think he's writing credits on Purple Hayes too.

00:38:43
Speaker 4: Camp. Maybe to have that come home with the album depends all over that.

00:38:53
Speaker 1: So yeah, I think I think we made a good case that twenty eleven can hang when it's not brought up the way. Like I'm even looking at Complex, which again, greatest publication of all time until they take us off a list. I don't even think they put twenty eleven on their top twenty, and I think that shit could be in the top five. So we cracked the code on that one.

00:39:15
Speaker 4: It's not enough in twenty eleven.

00:39:17
Speaker 1: To not make the top twenty.

00:39:20
Speaker 4: Let me see take Care Wash the Throne on section eighty, Section eighty, Okay, what else we got up there? See that it gets not.

00:39:33
Speaker 1: Still there because you get you have take Care Watched the Throne. Sean finally Famous Loupe Lasers Beyonce four, Like we went through the clip that one viral. Rihanna talked that talk Weekend Cocaine eighties Frank Ocean, like it's it's there.

00:39:48
Speaker 3: I'm going to bring this way by Lady Gagai, which is like, well revered.

00:39:53
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that it needs to be top three, but the fact that Complex doesn't even have it on its top twenty is like.

00:40:00
Speaker 4: Yeah, those with those albums you just named alone, that could be.

00:40:02
Speaker 1: That's one that's in the same Yeah, But I mean, I guess I don't know. Everyone just says ninety eight, I'm going to three just because of my age. But I was kind of mad my birth year wasn't on this ship. Well, my year was trash and.

00:40:14
Speaker 2: Shit going on, including your birth Like was it like what nobody was.

00:40:18

Speaker 1: Winding Fire raised out off hand, I don't know, and Stevie Wonder hotter than July.

00:42:01
Speaker 4: Come on, man, one of the greatest artists ever. I'm saying eighty one was a great year. It was a great year as far as uncncerned. We got some important albums from some important artists in nineteen eighty one.

00:42:38
Speaker 2: Damn Brand Nubian one for all.

00:42:41
Speaker 4: See, but that's not fair because by that time, hip hop was a little older. So it's like, you know what I mean, it's hip hop was still so young when I was born. It was like, see what I'm saying.

00:42:53
Speaker 2: Mm hmm.

00:42:54
Speaker 1: Johnny Gill self titled album not even kind of weird, but I'm all right, I'm all right here.

Speaker 1: Outcast, Southern Playlistic, cadialag Warren g Regulate, Gangs are Hard to Earn, Common Resurrection.

00:43:21
Speaker 3: Yeah, age ain't nothing but a number of crazy sexy cool, Black Streak, Branchy, super Tight.

00:43:27
Speaker 2: Come on, I'll get up on it by Keith Sweat. Mariah's Christmas album My Life Mary Jay came out.

00:43:32
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, no, it's not even close. That's that's Above the Rim soundtrack, the Best of Saday. Yeah, that's one of the best. Man, Crazy Sexy Cool came up. Yeah, yeah, what were doing? Yeah, that's that's a lot of ship. That's let me know what we're doing.

00:43:46
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's too many, that's too many records. You bragging when Maul was the only one listening to those albums in nineteen ninety four, You and I were, Yeah.

00:43:52
Speaker 4: That's what I'm saying. I could speak to it, like those are some classic.

00:43:55
Speaker 2: Album Rhythm of Love, Anita Baker, the fact.

00:43:59
Speaker 4: That Madic, Ready to Die, Crazy, Sexy Cool, Like, those are like three iconic albums.

00:44:10
Speaker 3: You Bye, Boys to Men came out, and that's like huge Boys to Men.

00:44:14
Speaker 1: I mean to me, twenty sixteen would have to be my version of ninety four of like actually remembering all iconic albums being put out in one year. The last iconic year six twenty sixteen is the last iconic year.

00:44:32
Speaker 4: Twenty twenty.

00:44:32
Speaker 2: You might have something to say.

00:44:34
Speaker 4: Twenty twenty is an underrated year. We're talking about that because of the pandemic. Like, but when you go and look at the music that we got in twenty twenty, we got some great albums in twenty twenty. We got great albums, We got great shows on television in twenty twenty, Like it was a weird year, but artistically it was it was a great year.

00:44:53
Speaker 1: I hear what you guys are saying, But even like We're twenty sixteen kind of beats everyone. For some reason, that year was the cycle that every A list artist yet out, yeah, not only an album, one of their best albums in their catalog, like Yeah, are you fucking with? Drake Views Anderson Pac Malibu, Salange, Seat at the Table, trapcal Quest, We got it from Here, No Worries, Yes, Lord Free, Black Coloring Book, Blank Face, lp Lemonade UNTITLEDA twenty sixteen salon No Names, Like this is Donald Glover, Awaken My Love, Weekend Starboy, you got Life of Pablo, then to Party next Door three like Bruno Mars twenty four K Magic Shrimp Life two.

00:45:39
Speaker 4: Anti Yeah, Yeah, like I.

00:45:43
Speaker 1: Big Big Sean, Big Sean and uh Janey twenty eighty eight Ja Cole for Your Eyes Only, which, by the way, I revisited I may ocall a little bit of an apology for how much I should have on that album. Yeah you do, which it's definitely it's definitely still, in my opinion, in the bottom of his catalog. But when I say bottom was catalog, it's j Cole is a legend in rap. That doesn't mean it's bad. It's just at the bottom to me, as far as catalog go, but I went back to it it I gave it a lot of shit. I should have lived with it some more. I think Neighbors might have been the biggest record on there. I'm not gonna say it's his American Gangster where it's like years later you realize maybe it's one of his best, but it's it's better than the shit I gave it.

00:46:28
Speaker 4: Okay, that's fair.

00:46:29
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like I mean, the outro I always loved, but I mean that's some of his best rapping ever. But like, imagine it if we got kod instead of that. Though in twenty sixteen, I would say it would rival ninety four, ninety eight and everything at that point.

00:46:43
Speaker 3: But I still think that twenty sixteen is probably the best year in music in the twenty in the two thousands.

00:46:49
Speaker 2: Yeah, those albums are in. I'm with peaged. I think I think it was the last iconic.

00:46:53
Speaker 3: Year of music, and they weren't just like it wasn't just like all the greats dropped in album, because there's some there's like one or two other years like I think it was all the greats dropped.

00:47:01
Speaker 2: Their best album.

00:47:03
Speaker 3: It was like, or at least the fan favorite, Like, my favorite Beyonce album it is probably Lemonade. My favorite Rihanna album is Antime. You know what I'm saying, Like my favorite Kanye and it goes on and on, so it's yeah, you.

00:47:17
Speaker 4: Know, it's one thing I noticed, like as much as I like, No, Beyonce is incredible. She's like an amazing artist. I really don't listen to Beyonce and that's okay, you know what I'm saying, Like it's crazy, Like when I think about it, I'm like, she puts out incredible albums, incredible songs, but I really can't tell you a time where I actually went and like put on outside of when the album first come out, just to hear what she gave us what.

00:47:43
Speaker 2: She did, because it's not your vibe.

00:47:44
Speaker 3: But that's why when I when me and you get into it all the time, when I'm like, just because you listen.

00:47:49
Speaker 2: To it more doesn't make it the greatest.

00:47:52
Speaker 3: We said that. I'll tell you that all the time. Something can be great and just not be what you want to hear on it.

00:47:57
Speaker 4: Oh no, for sure, I'm not. I will never argue that. But it's like it's almost like weird, how much I don't listen to Beyonce and how much I recognize that she's one of the greatest artists ever.

00:48:07
Speaker 1: For I think my personal take is she's one of the few artists that the second half of her solo catalog is better than the first, Like every Beyonce album has gotten better something.

00:48:19
Speaker 4: Which because she's grown as a producer as like artists.

00:48:22
Speaker 1: Like four Isn't is an incredible, incredible pop up four On and like Mother Mature, Beyonce is the greatest, like I hear you like I don't go back to I don't listen to like Sasha Fears album like that, I don't listen to Dangerously in Love like that, But I listened to Lemonade Beyonce Cowboy Carter like religiously throughout the week, like I will throw Lemonade on in the car at any time.

00:48:46
Speaker 3: The BDA people are gonna kick your ass about that, because there's there's a b Day like stand.

00:48:50
Speaker 2: Oh, Beyonce doesn't have a bad album.

00:48:52
Speaker 3: No what I mean, I'm just talking about that, Like there's a there is a part of the Internet that will say b DA is Beyonce's best album, and they will fight you on that.

00:48:59
Speaker 2: I think it was. I think it was four. It's the most ron four is the most rn B, so that I mean yes, But I mean I don't know.

00:49:06
Speaker 1: I think Beyonce and Lemonade can rivele it like her her latter half of her career. To me, is has so much replay value.

00:49:15
Speaker 2: What was going on in y'all love lives when Lemonade dropped?

00:49:18
Speaker 4: William was at twenty sixteen. I was in a relationship, man, I was. I was just a fucking The spirit of the Jezebel was all over me.

00:49:32
Speaker 2: Did you get an Elmonade song dedicated to you?

00:49:34
Speaker 3: I feel like every man at that time that was a piece of shit had Eliminade.

00:49:38
Speaker 4: I can't even remember, but that the Jezebel spirit was just all over me.

00:49:42
Speaker 2: I think Page correct me if I'm wrong.

00:49:44
Speaker 1: I think we did Palooza in Miami the day because didn't Lemonade drop on like HBO with the videos or something.

00:49:51
Speaker 2: Wasn't there like a movie or something?

00:49:53
Speaker 1: Yes, And I remember coming back to our Airbnb after Palooza and just like the timeline just hating men and we're like, yo, what the fuck just happened? We couldn't even get chicks back to the spot. It was just man hatered.

00:50:06
Speaker 4: Because that was the album when her and Jay was going through was going.

00:50:08
Speaker 3: Through the thing right well, I mean they had gotten through it, but yeah, yeah, she put.

00:50:12
Speaker 4: It all on the album.

00:50:13
Speaker 1: She talked about it like, yeah, don't even give it, like, don't let me nerd out about Lemonade is perfectly sequenced for a breakup grieving process, like all the stages of brief starts from track one all the way to the end of forgiveness, Like that album is so deep if you really get into it, even to the point with the with the weekend record is placed right where like you know what, fuck this, I'm gonna go through my whole phase mm hm, like fucking you know, I'm gonna go out and fuck people like and then it gets back to.

00:50:44
Speaker 4: Like, man, fuck these streets, I miss them. I'm gonna forgive them.

00:50:47
Speaker 1: Like it's it's legitimately a breakup in one cycle of the sequence. It's such a brilliant album, Like it's incredible how they even fit that into a pop and.

00:50:57
Speaker 2: R and B album with the writing.

00:50:59
Speaker 4: Is that might be her most important album.

00:51:02
Speaker 2: I definitely think it is, hands down.

00:51:03
Speaker 4: It might not be her best album. But it's her most important.

00:51:06
Speaker 2: I think it's the best too.

00:51:07
Speaker 1: Even once you get into the whole phase, then you got to get into your relationship with your pops and why you even chose this guy that she on you.

00:51:13
Speaker 4: Like, like.

00:51:15
Speaker 2: It's a whole theory.

00:51:16
Speaker 1: I know it's cliche to say with albums like this is a therapy session that ship is a legitimate breakup therapy session in one album.

00:51:22
Speaker 3: Have to be in a good place to listen to Lemonade, Like I can't listen to Lemonade and be in a bad place.

00:51:29
Speaker 2: I can't pray you catch me as one of the greatest intros.

00:51:31
Speaker 3: Ball it's probably and that's probably one of my favorite Beyonce songs.

00:51:34
Speaker 2: I pray. Love Drought is one of my favorite Beyonce songs of all time. Love draw is my favorite Beyonce song of all time. And All Night aultro shit, Come on, I never.

00:51:42
Speaker 1: Made it all night because I never forgave them.

00:51:47
Speaker 2: You never want to kiss up and kiss up and rubber on them.

00:51:50
Speaker 1: Nah, now you're talking about saying castles they washed away.

00:51:54
Speaker 2: Fuck all that.

00:51:56
Speaker 3: I turn it off at at at the Daddy song Daddy.

00:51:59
Speaker 1: Lessons, and then and then after she forgives her king and all men are are important again, we get it. Just Blaze and Beyonce record Freedom is the craziest beat ever. Like the fact that that's they had never worked together. It's kind of nuts to me too. What was was why did she put that on? What was that attached to? I mean, there was some things going on in twenty sixteen.

00:52:22
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, but I can't like so much. It happened in the last ten years.

00:52:25
Speaker 2: That was that was kind of like the start of the Black Lives Yeah, Black Lives Matter of twenty fifteen.

00:52:33
Speaker 4: I knew it was something. I couldn't remember what it was.

00:52:35
Speaker 1: We're not talking about the LLCs, just talk about the actual movement that had actual substance to not the people that took money and what you're doing.

00:52:43
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was that's when that started to That was.

00:52:47
Speaker 3: That was a good time. But I don't know about most important. I think most important might be the Beyonce album. The Beyonce Album Changed Music.

00:52:54
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was, I mean GRAVI and it's the first like actual surprise album, which.

00:52:59
Speaker 4: That song I can't believe.

00:53:06
Speaker 2: That would be myself and I first.

00:53:10
Speaker 4: That might be Beyonce's best.

00:53:12
Speaker 1: If you were to Family Feud. That was the last that men's favorite Beyonce song.

00:53:16
Speaker 3: It would be meet that album, not Love on Top, but also uh oh god, I'm gonna think of it in a second.

00:53:24
Speaker 2: Hold I signed four but yeah, Love on Top video new edition. That's our new edition.

00:53:31
Speaker 1: Conversation.

00:53:31
Speaker 4: I can't remember Love on Top.

00:53:33
Speaker 2: It's a very similar.

00:53:34
Speaker 1: It has a new edition. Vibe the treatment of them in the like that rec center dancing and ship. Yeah, okay, that's yeah.

00:53:42
Speaker 2: They definitely like that's what you know.

00:53:44
Speaker 4: The song is hard, like you gotta be in the dance studio by yourself. Like if you wasn't in the dance studio by yourself for herson and your video song wasn't a hit, Like every great R and B song had that one, Like that great artist had that one video where it's just them and the dance studio mirrors by themself, like you got it. That's like part of like every artist want that video, Like I need that video.

00:54:06
Speaker 3: It was just me and a dance studio and we just I just want to talk about who started it.

00:54:11
Speaker 2: Is the in the dance.

00:54:12
Speaker 4: I don't think Janel started that the pleasure She might have na the audition was before that. I think, yeah, an audition was does before that. I think it's just if this Isn't Love, it might have been before that. Really, yeah, it might be, Yeah, it might be if this Isn't Love might be before. Pleasure Principal is the.

00:54:31
Speaker 1: Dance studio, the same as the laying down on your album cover? Is that the equivalent?

00:54:35
Speaker 4: Okay, if This Isn't Love is eighty eight? Yeah, I think Pusure Principal was right after that, right.

00:54:41
Speaker 2: Prince was eighty six? Baby respect.

00:54:44
Speaker 4: Okay, see, let's close. I was young. I was young and I was only five, you know what I'm saying. But I remember that I remember this around the same time. But okay, Plasure looking route just biting. Yeah, I mean, listen, that was Janet, Listen, it is what it is. That was Miss Jackson.

00:54:58
Speaker 2: I was somebody before that.

00:55:00
Speaker 1: But oh yeah, yeah, I don't even put they made it iconic though. I'll even put Cowboy Carter pretty high on Beyonce's desography list. That has more replay value than Ship to Me than b DA Sasha fears Dangerously.

00:55:13
Speaker 2: And love You're wrong, And that's okay.

00:55:16
Speaker 1: Replay value to me. You could, of course Dangerous Love. I think all fucking sixteen records are hits, but yeah, Cowboy, that might be my favorite yeah hip hop at the time, though it was asked into and O three, I gave a little what's the jay Z gift?

00:55:34
Speaker 2: When I was doing that a little bit, Okay, I was trying to catch it.

00:55:39
Speaker 4: He was.

00:55:40
Speaker 2: You couldn't catch it either, damn yo.

00:55:48
Speaker 1: This episode is brought to you by Walden University. Maul, Have you ever caught yourself thinking what if I could go after what I actually want and really make a difference? You you ever thought like we cannot change the world until we change ourselves exactly. Nothing disappointed my grandfather on his deathbed more than me not graduating college. But I felt like an adult and I could not go back to school. Wald University is changing that. For over fifty years, wald and has helped working adults like us go get the w with the knowledge and skills to build the future you want and make a difference where it matters most.

00:56:19
Speaker 4: If you've been waiting for the right moment, this is it had to WALDENU dot eed you and take that first step. Walden University set a course for Change, certified to Operate by Chef. That's Beyonce's best album? Was that sort of covered? That's her best album? Dangerously in Love?

00:56:38
Speaker 2: I guess I don't know.

00:56:41
Speaker 3: Yeah, when the last time y'all loved somebody like like dangerously in love?

00:56:44
Speaker 4: Too?

00:56:45
Speaker 2: Like, when was the last time y'all loved somebody like that?

00:56:47
Speaker 1: Oh shit, I don't know what do you mean by dangerously in love?

00:56:52
Speaker 3: That bitch said like, I'm dangerously in love with you, Like it's like I'll never leave. I've been said every time I say face, my heart smiles. Created in this world of love, to hold, to breathe, to feel, to live you.

00:57:07
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's probably crazier than cater to you. Hey man, look.

00:57:10
Speaker 4: Man, yeah, I ain't make I ain't make enough money yet for them to love me like that. Yeah, that's you gotta make it. You gotta be in a certain bracket for them to love you like that.

00:57:19
Speaker 1: Yeah that's kind of crazy.

00:57:21
Speaker 4: Yeah, dangerously in love?

00:57:22
Speaker 1: Yeah, nah ship even though Mama Blake and what's the jay Z and Beyonce first record that they ever did, that's on Dangerously Love, Bonnie and Claude, No crazy love, even crazy and love is kind of sick if you get into the lyrics.

00:57:38
Speaker 4: That's Jamionce's first one.

00:57:40
Speaker 2: I think I'm uh.

00:57:43
Speaker 1: Bonnie and Clyde was what they both came out the same year, so okay, yeah, yeah, I thought Crazy and Love was like you know their ig reveal likely he no longer was the rolex and the forearm like they outside with it. Yeah damn y'all. Yeah, look at what you did to me? Yea. She went kind of nuts on crazy.

00:58:10
Speaker 3: Said baby, I can't go anywhere without thinking that you are. It seems like, yeah, everywhere is true that I be. Oh that's day JAVL wrong song.

00:58:15
Speaker 4: Sorry, you just do all like look at you. You get your life together, Get your fucking life together.

00:58:23
Speaker 2: Same girl didn't make it all night on Lemonade and saying that you can't make it the all night.

00:58:29
Speaker 1: I wish some like more engineers did podcast interviews because like I would love to know what it was like the day, like she walks out the booth after cutting Love on Top, Like what that feeling has to be like of like there's only three people in the world that know we have one of the most undeniable records of all time, Like what does that feel like?

00:58:50
Speaker 4: And do you do you know, yeah, end Norman, do you know like that's gonna I think it's hard to like really know if like certain records I think are like I'm guessing that when fucking Michael Jackson and them did Thriller, everybody in the studio knew, like, all right, this is is over see.

00:59:07
Speaker 3: You know what though, I think songs like that no, because I think songs like that are a risk.

00:59:12
Speaker 2: That's not a proven formula.

00:59:14
Speaker 4: Thriller.

00:59:15
Speaker 2: I think it's a risk.

00:59:16
Speaker 3: I don't think anybody imagines that thriller becomes with Thriller.

00:59:19
Speaker 1: And Thriller was built, yeah, like because then they had to go do the most iconic video ever, Like.

00:59:26
Speaker 3: It was built, video made the song. The song is an amazing song. Can't you just drop Thriller on soundclouds with no visual? I don't know if it has the same trajectory.

00:59:36
Speaker 4: At that time? Crazy at hell out of't be like what the fuck is this? What's the greatest song I ever heard about life? Take away from the song, but do you get the video? The video? The video. The reason why they put the emphasis on the Thriller video like that is because the record the song and then at that time Michael was like, yo, he is the biggest star in music right now.

00:59:56
Speaker 1: And that was more of the formula fact. I'm not comparing it to like say, Childish getting Bino. This is America that needed a visual like you like you weren't like if you just dropped that record, like you're not like.

01:00:08
Speaker 2: Thriller thoh nah.

01:00:09
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm not.

01:00:10
Speaker 1: Comparing it in that way where it's like this needs a visual to land.

01:00:14
Speaker 2: But that did build, Like you equate it to the visual.

01:00:19
Speaker 1: What do you have to Yeah, so down to the choreography, like even single Ladies undeniable. The choreography and it being presented that way made this story even bigger.

01:00:29
Speaker 3: Which is crazy because the video dropped a year after the album dropped.

01:00:33
Speaker 4: That's what I'm saying. It was the song thriller. Yeah, it was the song they knew ever that song was. That's one of those ones where any of the engineer, the producer, like everything is just like they know, like no, this is we've we've everything about this song is.

01:00:51
Speaker 2: Perfect as Quincy though he's still talking.

01:00:56
Speaker 4: Quincy has passed away and resting with the aig juice Man.

01:01:00
Speaker 1: Yes, I wish we would have gotten one more interview from him so we could tell us created COVID Jones dementia.

01:01:09
Speaker 4: He died last year.

01:01:10
Speaker 2: A year last year. Oh, you're right, he did.

01:01:13
Speaker 1: We talked about it and we read his most iconic interview.

01:01:16
Speaker 4: Yeah.

01:01:19
Speaker 1: Once he told us that Marvin Game Richard Pride was sucking. He said, he told us who killed JFK? And then when yoh, so you like Brazilian.

01:01:26
Speaker 4: Food another day, don't we asked an interview.

01:01:32
Speaker 3: I feel so bad if I asked if he's still talking and he's dead, that feels so bad.

01:01:36
Speaker 1: I don't know if we've asked you this before, but what was there songs that you heard in the studio and was like that we all know and love now that you were like, oh yeah, that's they got one there. Other side Jay's ps A, oh for sure. Yeah.

01:01:55
Speaker 4: When I heard that, I knew the city was going to flip upside down when that shit trick.

01:01:59
Speaker 1: The story of that is crazy from what Just Blaze said. He he was doing press at Baseline for the Black album like already, and Just Blaze was making that in the b room while Jay was going back and forth to do press, and he heard it and would do an interview run in and do two lines, do an interview, run back through two more lines, like that's crazy.

01:02:21
Speaker 4: Yeah, when they played that, that was like that song was played so much in baseline. Yeah, when I heard PSA, I was I definitely and I was like, yeah, this is this is definitely gonna go crazy. And sure enough, I think Flex made a debut.

01:02:35
Speaker 1: That probably makes sense act, but I just like I'd like to ask just Blaze what that car ride home was he burns it onto a CD driving back to Jersey, like just knowing you got this.

01:02:46
Speaker 4: Yeah, that was one that that was an undeniable Everybody that heard that in the studio was like Jesus Christ.

01:02:52
Speaker 1: Did y'all feel that way about Lucifer because I heard Lucifer, wouldn't I don't think Lucifer wasn't a single before the album?

01:03:00
Speaker 4: No? No, yeah, you know was the album could Yeah, I didn't hear that. I didn't hear that one until the album came out, and then obviously I couldn't really listen to that.

01:03:08
Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean even in the Faded Black movie, Oh, Kanye just playing that ship and like Jay's like, wait, what the fuck is that?

01:03:13
Speaker 4: Yeah? Yeah, that was another one that those ones.

01:03:16
Speaker 1: Though I've asked Guru that question before of like what's it like to just know you have that?

01:03:20
Speaker 2: He compared it.

01:03:22
Speaker 1: He said, when you guys interviewed push your Tea and then you went home that night, you knew that you had something that tomorrow was going to stop the worlds. He's like, you remember that? Was like, yeah, I remember hitting the group chat like yo, I have no idea, what the fuck you about to drop tomorrow? So yeah, I guess I understand that anticipation, but obviously not to that degree. I could never imagine making the blueprint and driving home like just having harder the city on a burnt CD, like wait till the world hears this, Like this is insane.

01:03:52
Speaker 3: So I know they be calling this is this this, this is this is my thing, And they could lie and say that they don't. I know, they'd be calling they bitches, the ones they know they could trust and be like you gotta hear this. You got a pillow talk They hit records before they come out.

01:04:04
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's no way.

01:04:05
Speaker 1: Of course, we even I mean shout out to it to our brother Quinton Miller when we interviewed him. I mean a lot of the reasons why shit was leaky. He was like, of course I was playing that for bitches. You don't think my reference for Drake, I wasn't playing for people.

01:04:19
Speaker 4: You have to almost like like, come on, you're working with the biggest artists, Like what are we talking about. I have to get that off, Like I gotta bring my chicks that I like to the studio and just play it and then they know that the biggest artist is about to record on this, Like that's part of it. You have to that's that's part of the whole moment of the record.

01:04:39
Speaker 1: Yeah, because even like when which I'm snitching myself. We talked about it with Gigs, like when Jay did the The God Did Verse and I was there right after he recorded it with Guru and he was probably like, all right, Jay's rapper for like six minutes. Like I ran right back. I was like, Kiah, I heard a six minute jay z verse Like yeah, I started. I started talking about it immediately. The Guru played that over the phone for me. I feel like he did. I called you, yeah, Gigs, like when when you have something you call people like you you called me too, like probably yeah, Like I remember I remember hearing partners. I think you called me too. I was sitting there trying to remember, Oh yeah, no, I was definitely trying to memorize Jay's versus I've rapped because R Jungle Studios there is and where I was staying was like walking distance, and I was I was rapping.

01:05:29
Speaker 2: That ship to myself. I was like, what do you say again?

01:05:31
Speaker 1: Yo?

01:05:32
Speaker 4: Yeah, Drakes Drake sent me a record that might change my life, but I don't know if it's gonna make that album.

01:05:39
Speaker 2: Change your Oh so you're mentioned in.

01:05:40
Speaker 4: It, Niggas said, Man, he didn't say, he said. Niggas said, ma baby d No.

01:05:49
Speaker 1: Niggas said, it doesn't make that to the mall for podcasts and equipment, she just wanted to he didn't say. Okay, Drake Drake rapping mall fun, Drake wrapping the words podcast equipment would be the funniest fun. But if it doesn't make the album, don't worry. Because Stove God shout you out on the verse on my album.

01:06:09
Speaker 4: He did.

01:06:11
Speaker 2: That is from the Bronx.

01:06:12
Speaker 4: I'm here. I was very pivotal in putting the world on the Stove God.

01:06:18
Speaker 1: Okay, that is that is definitely true. They killed me all out at the end of the verse. I moved the shout out to the beginning of the verse in between the verses. You know what, let me put them all on this little this this dead air right here.

01:06:35
Speaker 3: They killed me for sake, like when I said on the internet, because they were like Ory mad don't put people on the no new artist, And I'm like, I was, like, half of y'all wouldn't know who a lot of Griselda is without Rory in ma back in those days. Obviously now of course, but back when like y'all weren't listening to.

01:06:48
Speaker 4: Black and Daniel Caesar both have personally thanked me for the first person in media to ever say their name. Yeah, you can't pay that.

01:06:56
Speaker 2: People forget that's that's hilarious.

01:06:57
Speaker 4: But people a lot of well, to be fair, a lot of people were probably listening to us in twenty sixteen, twenty seventeen when a lot of those guys we were playing, so you know, they missed it.

01:07:09
Speaker 2: But I'd like seen the fly God artwork.

01:07:13
Speaker 1: But Maul was the first person for sure to like force me to have to sit and be like, it's not only Westcide Gun this Ky Conway and then like one of their cousins or some shit is insane, like happened to.

01:07:25
Speaker 4: Be Benny the Butcher. This was Benny Like. I was like, y'all never heard of this too.

01:07:30
Speaker 1: Like, yeah, we get a NAS album this week, Yes, DJ Premiere, We.

01:07:35
Speaker 4: Get a NAS album this week. We get a Conway album the same day. So yeah, rap, it's a lot of rap. This was a lot of good raps. I'm excited to hear what mass Appel did with this NAS DJ Premier album.

01:07:47
Speaker 1: We're saying casually, like this is not the way we talked about twenty sixteen.

01:07:49
Speaker 2: We're getting a NAS in DJ.

01:07:51
Speaker 1: Premiere final week, finally happening. I saw a rumor and it was Twitter, so it's true. Maybe it was just because they took a photo, but there was some Rome Streets NAS talk. What do you mean as far as working together on this album?

01:08:08
Speaker 4: Yeah, but the track lisk, it's only one feature on this album.

01:08:12
Speaker 1: I saw that with it just a yeah, but I don't know. People were in the Rome Streets side of Twitter. They were saying they're working and I don't know it's because they got to creature together. Yeah, but there was more evidence, you know, they breaked everything down on Twitter and read it. Yeah, but I would love to see that. I mean, that's just great Queen Shites. Great for Rome deserves it. And I know, I know NAS this year paid attention and listen everything.

01:08:35
Speaker 4: Nas listen to that. But guys like that, the rap is the real MC's they pay attention to. Even if they're not motivated or inspired by the current climate and rap, they always still pay attention to what's going on. Who are the new guys that are, you know, holding a pin to a certain standard, like so Nas Jay and you know, guys like that, they always in tune like artists that are going to come up that don't think that those guys know about them.

01:09:03
Speaker 1: If you're dope, they definitely know who you are.

01:09:05
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I mean the studio session I've been in with j Cole, all he does is sit on YouTube and look like you see, he literally sees everything like you have. When you're that at that level and you pay attention to that, like you're that meticulous with the with the craft, you definitely know about all of the guys that are bubbling and that are making noise.

01:09:23
Speaker 1: That's even how I discovered that Donald Glover interviewed Chief Keith mm hmm. Jay Cole stopped there on the studio on stage, Donald Glover just interviewed. It's quite possibly the funniest fucking interview I've ever seen my I just saw a clip of h.

01:09:38
Speaker 4: I shout out of Vince Stables. I got a Vince Stables. He did an interview with I forgot the young lady's name, ze Way. Yes, now her show is alected. She's so funny. I just love Vince Man. I just watch. It's like the way he answers questions because Vince has this he has this demeanor about him, like and I don't know if with the relationship between Vince and z Way are if they just met during this interview or not, But like, as someone that's sitting across from Vince, if it's your first time and you're asking questions, you really think he's being an asshole, Like he has that thing about him where you like he's being a dick. But this is really who Vince really, I'm talking about camera's off. That's exactly what Vince would have said for sure, all of those questions.

01:10:20
Speaker 1: And maybe it's because I'm an asshole. I don't think he comes across as an asshole at all. No, why people would think.

01:10:24
Speaker 2: That, But he's king sarcasm and so is No, he don't.

01:10:29
Speaker 1: He's not being sarcastic about cameras cameras off.

01:10:34
Speaker 4: That would have been his answer. That would have been his response to those questions like this is like him just in the studio, kicking it like and just having a conversation like this is exactly who Vince is. I do have to watch this full energies. I only saw some of the clips, but check out the z Way interview with Vince Staples. From what I saw, it looks like it's hilarious.

01:10:53
Speaker 1: Even like when he was talking to Speed, he was like, you let people at your house?

01:10:56
Speaker 2: He wasn't being sarcastic.

01:10:57
Speaker 4: Yeah, he didn't understand that. He couldn't even understand how the spials and like what do you mean like come of my house? Like what do you mean?

01:11:03
Speaker 2: Are you cooked for your friends? The fuck is wrong with you?

01:11:06
Speaker 4: Yeah, shut out the vins Man.

01:11:09
Speaker 2: Yeah.

01:11:11
Speaker 1: I hope uh season three gets picked up Olflex. I mean especially everything Netflix is going, Yeah, I mean they should have the capital.

01:11:18
Speaker 4: Yeah. Season two, the numbers that Netflix and Paramoun's throwing around is fucking they just up there just playing all kind of games with billions. I got eighty two billion for you, Yeah, I got a hundred and eight for you. So y'all niggas is just up here playing with two hundred million dollars, Like y'all just up here. It's niggas homeless, all kind of shit, and y'all just in this office, like throwing around two hundred million dollars, Like.

01:11:42
Speaker 1: Can we google how much money is in the world?

01:11:44
Speaker 4: It's how much? How much money is? It doesn't make any how much money is in that Warner Brothers parking lot right now? Yeah, that's what we need to google.

01:11:51
Speaker 2: Well, what year is it?

01:11:52
Speaker 1: When when money actually technically didn't exist Because the rate of money printed versus what the golds that it used to be represent, so.

01:12:00
Speaker 4: Physical cash it's around nine to ten trillion dollars, while the broader money supply is roughly ninety to one hundred and twenty trillion. A total global wealth is much higher, nearing four hundred and seventy trillion or more, showing most value is in physical currency, but digital assets, so physical commncy none to ten trillion.

01:12:24
Speaker 1: Even the rate of which we value money from certain countries is compared to ours is made up. I'm not one of those people that thinks everything Kanye West says is profound. But when he did ask Joe Rogan, how much do you think the world costs? Like that really did actually fuck with my mind. I was like, no, I'm not being one of those Kanye people, but he has like that's a really interesting question.

01:12:45
Speaker 4: How much debt is the world? And it just came out yesterday? Right?

01:12:48
Speaker 2: Who are we in debt to? You mean the US?

01:12:51
Speaker 4: You just go to Union Square told you they got the debt clocker. No, No, that's not the world debt.

01:12:56
Speaker 2: That's I'm saying world debt because who is the world?

01:12:59
Speaker 1: Yet?

01:12:59
Speaker 2: Who are we in dea? You mean the no, the whole kind?

01:13:02
Speaker 4: Look the US, The world debt is nearing three hundred and forty six trillion by late twenty twenty five?

01:13:08
Speaker 1: Is that all the country's debt to each other?

01:13:10
Speaker 4: So China and Japan US? Uh? Yeah.

01:13:15
Speaker 1: The what I don't understand is why can't like the country just file chapter level Like, I mean, I know that gets you in a great depression, but like we should just files.

01:13:24
Speaker 2: I don't.

01:13:24
Speaker 4: I don't want to, got it?

01:13:25
Speaker 2: I don't want Tom to have to pay this ship back, Like can we file? Can we? Can we just start at zero?

01:13:31
Speaker 4: Oh man, I mean I'm sure the USI bil its credit back up.

01:13:35
Speaker 1: I mean Damarus is giving us the wrap it up thing because you know she's part of the illuminati. Now we're starting to ask the real questions and now she wants us to get off the mic. Damn US debt clock dot org. I'm I'm sure that I'm sure this is really a dot gov if you get into the dark web, that they own this website as well.

01:13:58
Speaker 2: But this was fun. I'm glad we actually got to talk about music.

01:14:00
Speaker 4: I'm good I told my music with you. Sometimes when you're not like, you know, deep into your barefoot bag and when you come back to like queens a little bit like you appreciate that we fu fun with Barefoot though, no, me too. But you know sometimes Rory is like he don't put socks on for a week, and it's just like he don't want to talk about.

01:14:16
Speaker 3: I feel like snocks, no socks and new balanced feet stink that whole.

01:14:21
Speaker 1: Once once mac Miller and Anderson Pack did like the greatest version of Barefoot rap single with a what was off? The divine feminine?

01:14:31
Speaker 4: That thing.

01:14:31
Speaker 2: I gotta see that.

01:14:33
Speaker 1: The Yeah, everyone tried to copy that after that, and I started to fall out of love with with with Barefoot music because everyone just tried they ran into the ground. And not to say it's eat. Some of the beats are easy to make, but the actual songs are tough, and everyone just they took it and ran with it. And that genre, man, they killed it. Yeah, It's like I'm sure K pop has ran it in the ground too. I'm kind of over the Barefoot ship.

01:14:57
Speaker 4: All right. But we got some Nas album this weekend. DJ for me got Conway Can't Kill God with Bullets this weekend as well. So listen, man, we got some good music on the way.

01:15:06
Speaker 1: Are you gonna pass out toys and Baisley with me and Nas? Listen, man, you're good. I'll show you around Queens. It's cool, You'll be safe.

01:15:15
Speaker 4: I'm always good.

01:15:29
Speaker 1: Over there, man, Because you're thinking Baisley, that's what it was.
