Tune in for an in-depth analysis of the cultural implications and the ongoing debate: Is the transition from DJs to streamers a boon or a bane for hip-hop culture?
[00:00:00] So what I wanted to discuss really, really quick because I don't have, well, I'm not on my YouTube right now and I haven't done my audio podcast in a while.
[00:00:10] I've actually fell back from like all media and all, you know, creating, well, working on this music stuff.
[00:00:18] Well, besides that, I kind of fell back from a lot of stuff that I was doing what I was working on as far as YouTube and podcasts.
[00:00:26] And I just needed time to take a break because I've been doing the same thing for a very, very long time and it's yielded a lot of benefits.
[00:00:34] But it also took up a lot of my life and I wanted to see what life was like when I wasn't in the creative space every day of always wanting to create, always feeling like I got to create, always feeling like I got to make something happen.
[00:00:48] Do this, do that.
[00:00:49] I wanted to see what that was like.
[00:00:51] And I guess I see what it was like.
[00:00:55] And it's kind of cool.
[00:00:57] And then just sitting, you know, I just, I didn't even go to the gym for like 40 some days.
[00:01:03] Didn't do my podcast as y'all know, didn't do anything for a while and then I was like, well, this is how bum ass niggers live.
[00:01:11] That was the part that bothered me for the most part but other than that, I was just really, really chill and just recalibrate and just figuring out, you know, what my next steps in my next course of action was going to be.
[00:01:24] And I got some stuff that I, you know, I got some direction that I'm going in.
[00:01:30] So, you know, that's what's happening with me.
[00:01:34] But I wanted to say, let's talk about how to shift in the culture.
[00:01:38] Sometimes my tweets are misinterpreted.
[00:01:41] A female once told me before I speak in parables and they kind of like don't understand me sometimes.
[00:01:49] I don't know if I want to be understood.
[00:01:51] I think sometimes I talk as if everybody watches me and understand my mental state, my temperament and how I speak.
[00:02:00] So I sometimes I say stuff and maybe I'm not in depth but sometimes we think of people who's going to pick up when I'm putting down but.
[00:02:07] I don't like to talk to everybody like they're dumb.
[00:02:10] So I just be figuring people would be knowing what I'm talking about.
[00:02:12] Then I realized sometimes people don't get it.
[00:02:15] So that's why a lot of people want to chime in and say this, that and the third or you know, they want to have a response most of the time.
[00:02:25] I'm starting to realize people want to have a response.
[00:02:28] People want to say something back to me, you know, and have their opinion and sometimes they even agree with me but they think they're not agreeing with me.
[00:02:37] They think they're saying opposite but they just really didn't understand what I'm saying.
[00:02:41] Sometimes that could be a little frustrating.
[00:02:43] Sometimes people, you know, say their opinion and I respond.
[00:02:47] Sometimes people say stupid shit and I block them.
[00:02:50] No, first I kicked them and they asked first and then I blocked them, which I like to do because you'll be having people like you can't don't come at me if you got some weird avatar.
[00:02:59] Don't come at me if you got the avatar of another rapper.
[00:03:01] Don't come at me pause pause.
[00:03:03] No puff.
[00:03:04] Don't don't say nothing to me.
[00:03:06] Let's just say it because we can't even say come back.
[00:03:08] We can't even say certain shit no more the game is so twisted.
[00:03:10] Don't say nothing to me if you got a weird ass avatar.
[00:03:14] I'm surprised not more people are joining.
[00:03:17] Is this like private or something?
[00:03:20] I'm confused.
[00:03:25] I guess this is, is this private?
[00:03:27] I don't even know if this is public.
[00:03:29] I don't even know how to make this because people would have joined by now.
[00:03:33] So I don't know how to make this thing work.
[00:03:40] I don't know if this is private or public.
[00:03:42] I don't know how to make this thing work.
[00:03:44] But for the most part, you know,
[00:03:50] when I tweet stuff and I say stuff, I try to say sometimes I'm bullshit and sometimes it's just like to talk shit.
[00:03:56] But for the most part, I like to say things that's cultural and just give people,
[00:04:03] you know, stuff that's about the culture that they might not have known or they might know or whatever the case may be.
[00:04:11] So that's a lot of times I do that culturally.
[00:04:16] I try to do that a lot, you know, just make sure people, you know,
[00:04:21] understand certain things because it's a lot of misinformation is a lot of regurgitated information.
[00:04:27] And it's a lot of things that people were not there for, but they speak as if they were there.
[00:04:32] And it's misinformation and misinformation travels faster than the truth.
[00:04:36] And when we deal with hip hop and hip hop culture, so much shit is misinformation that it just spreads.
[00:04:44] And I'd be like, yo, that's not how to happen or that's not what happened.
[00:04:48] And people really don't care because the truth is more entertaining than a lot.
[00:04:52] And I find myself lately like defending people that I don't want to defend and defendant or going at hip hop takes.
[00:05:01] That's just not the truth, not opinion, but people are stating things as truth.
[00:05:06] And a lot of stuff is not true when it comes to hip hop.
[00:05:10] So when I'm saying the culture shifted, I did a tweet about academics getting a disc record before flexed.
[00:05:16] That wasn't just like academics and many people misinterpreted.
[00:05:19] So I got a lot of people saying, yo, hip hop is hip hop radio was dead flexes old.
[00:05:27] Yo, y'all niggas stuck in the 2000. That's not what I was saying.
[00:05:31] The point I was making was I never seen a time in hip hop culture that I see.
[00:05:40] I never seen a point in hip hop culture when somebody where somebody would just give academics a record opposed to giving flex a record based off of flex being an actual DJ and somebody left for comment.
[00:06:09] And that was the opinion, but you know, academics got the record in real time and all that.
[00:06:15] I'm like flex get the record in real time and I had nothing to do with it.
[00:06:18] That's why I said the culture has shifted because at one point you wanted to hear stuff on flex at one point when flex got it, it was big and it's not like that anymore.
[00:06:28] Now it's the streamers because for the most part, although academics say his name is DJ academics.
[00:06:34] Shit, I might be more of a DJ than him put me in front of turntables and I'm going to show you what I could do because that's my foundation in this culture as a DJ.
[00:06:43] So although his name is DJ academics, I never saw him on turntables.
[00:06:47] So DJ academic shit, I could say I'm $6 million man and I could jump up build.
[00:06:53] I could say I'm Superman doggy diamonds and I can fly but if you ain't never seen me fly.
[00:06:57] I'm just talking.
[00:06:59] Get what I'm saying. So that's why I said what I said about a DJ academics get in the record before flex because streaming streamers have more of an influence than actual DJs these days and that's for your perception to figure out if that's good or bad.
[00:07:18] That's not for me to say that that's good or bad.
[00:07:22] That's not what I was saying.
[00:07:24] That's not what I wanted to say. That's not what I was trying to say.
[00:07:26] So people misinterpreted me saying academics got the records before flex and then you got your dumb ass motherfuckers not my listeners right now.
[00:07:35] The dumb ass people say oh flex is old and all that shit.
[00:07:39] Y'all got to stop with that old and young shit because old is the age.
[00:07:43] When we dealing with hip hop right because everybody loves hip hop everybody want to talk about hip hop all fucking day hip hop this hip hop that like nothing else in the world exists but hip hop to black people right now right.
[00:07:55] Niggas don't give a fuck about credit schools niggas don't give a fuck about taking a garbage out they wake up eat sleep breathe fuck hip hop everything is hip hop hip hop this hip hop that nobody talk about anything else but hip hop right.
[00:08:09] But I'm saying is if we dealing with hip hop and we dealing with people who are elders flexors are elder whether you like his politic or whatever or not he still put on in the DJ game right.
[00:08:20] So what I was saying was damn flex don't even get the records is going to academics the shit shifted.
[00:08:28] So is that good or bad.
[00:08:30] Because as much as you want to say flex is old flexing shit blah blah blah blah at least he is a DJ.
[00:08:40] Right he's a DJ.
[00:08:43] I want to defend that point why because I seen that man on time tables.
[00:08:48] So as we say flex don't matter flex is old flexing relevant.
[00:08:53] Okay so I'm glad that you said that so a DJ in hip hop culture is not relevant because the streamer is.
[00:09:00] Okay so what happens next week when academics don't get the record.
[00:09:06] No more because flex academics took over for flex now what happens next week.
[00:09:14] If Paris Hilton get the record before everybody.
[00:09:19] Because by your standards.
[00:09:22] By y'all say or or or or what's the what's the young young lady who be interviewing people in the bed now.
[00:09:29] Yeah that's let's not say Paris Hilton that's that's kind of out the game.
[00:09:33] Let's say next week this young lady who took funny Marco swag she gets the records she gets the dis records now.
[00:09:43] I'm going to be saying why does y'all give her the dis record why you didn't give it to academics.
[00:09:48] Well why give it to academic she could be the next big thing y'all said that flexing relevant no more radio ain't relevant.
[00:09:56] What happens when y'all want to say or somebody decides that academics is not relevant and you want to give it to the young lady who be interviewing people in the bed who swaggers act funny Marco.
[00:10:08] You see how that works so you got to be careful who you qualify and dis qualify because who's making up the qualifications and who's dis qualifying people.
[00:10:17] But if you dis qualify flex who's an actual DJ.
[00:10:22] For somebody who says they were DJ but not a DJ and that's a great streamer rated what they do I'm not saying that what he does.
[00:10:32] He's bad at what I'm saying what he does he shouldn't be doing but I'm saying you dis qualifying an actual DJ for somebody who says he's a DJ who's a streamer.
[00:10:43] What happens next week if somebody decides we no longer like you as a streamer we dis qualify a DJ now we want to give it to the young lady that's that interviews people in the bed.
[00:10:57] Now she's going to break this records you just fucked up hip hop because you took it out of the hands of a DJ to give it to somebody who reports hip hop right but not a DJ to somebody.
[00:11:13] Who swaggers act funny Marco that's what y'all did.
[00:11:18] So academics get in the record is cool.
[00:11:22] It's cool.
[00:11:24] But don't discredit flex while giving it to academics that's all I was saying maybe you won't give it to flex give it to a DJ around the country and they gotta be flex.
[00:11:34] We give it to another DJ around the country.
[00:11:38] That was just my that was what I was saying but people are not going to say people not going to understand because some of these people who like to debate respectfully and not even in this country.
[00:11:52] Seriously they have no clue what's going on in America they know about America.
[00:11:58] From the internet.
[00:12:00] They're not in America.
[00:12:02] So they think America is is is is Instagram.
[00:12:06] They think America is Twitter.
[00:12:09] Rather ex aka Twitter.
[00:12:12] They think America is YouTube and podcasts and they're unaware that a lot of shit that they see people are running plays people are sitting together conjuring up ideas for let's all go viral off this.
[00:12:25] So when somebody like myself like to speak and I speak truth into power was really going on into the culture because I'm not no fucking pussy foot in front now Snigga they don't understand that these niggas is over here lying but they conspired together a lot.
[00:12:40] I'm not saying that's what's happening to be from just saying that's what happens a lot of time.
[00:12:45] So the culture shifted in that way where it could be a good or bad thing depending on who's shifting it and where it shift because once you start disqualifying people from the culture.
[00:13:00] For people who's in the culture.
[00:13:03] Then you can start giving it to people who's not in the culture.
[00:13:07] Based off their numbers their attention and all of that so it could get a little dangerous so I can move from that.
[00:13:15] Now.
[00:13:17] Reason why I qualify Joe Button is hip hop media not because he has a pod.
[00:13:22] I don't even like the word pod.
[00:13:23] Let me just be real which I can't stand that fucking word.
[00:13:25] I will never you will never hear me say pod.
[00:13:29] I just don't like the word when you talk to me please don't address my shit as a pod.
[00:13:34] I don't do pods.
[00:13:36] I do podcasts.
[00:13:38] I do commentary.
[00:13:39] I do great thoughts and we know according to me.
[00:13:44] I try to put my great mind out there sometimes I say shit in jest sometimes I just shred of bullshit but for the most part.
[00:13:51] I'm not with the clown before shit that just ain't my thing you know I'm saying so reason why qualify Joe button Joe but Joe button been in hip hop media for a lot longer than people understand.
[00:14:02] See people just think he started doing a pod and with Rory and mall and now he has his crew now no Joe button host hot hot 97 morning show for a while.
[00:14:14] And that's years back.
[00:14:17] Joe button also was the first artist that I ever saw streaming the shit that niggas is doing now Joe button was doing that shit 15 years ago.
[00:14:28] He was on you stream.
[00:14:29] He's to sit there and play cards and do shit.
[00:14:32] And you know when Joe button got into the incident with Ray Kwan he was on you stream.
[00:14:42] Look how long ago that was.
[00:14:46] So what we're into now what we're doing now he kind of was ahead of the curve with radio podcasting very very similar.
[00:14:53] Podcasting could be a little bit more direct but you got talk radio which is nothing but podcasting podcast.
[00:15:00] Listen podcasting is only called podcast because they was taking the audio format and putting it in the iPod.
[00:15:10] That's why it's called podcasting.
[00:15:12] It was in the iPod.
[00:15:14] It was a format that was made for iPod.
[00:15:18] That's why it's called podcasting.
[00:15:20] That's it.
[00:15:22] It's really just talk radio.
[00:15:24] That's all it really is.
[00:15:26] It's just a specific format.
[00:15:28] That was for these new podcasts that we had.
[00:15:33] I mean these new iPods that we had that we was putting all our MP3s in where we was downloaded from iTunes and putting it in here.
[00:15:40] And these were the new devices that took over CDs and took over take players and took over CD players iPod took that over.
[00:15:50] So now people wanted to hear talk radio on the iPod.
[00:15:55] So then people started making podcasts strictly for that device.
[00:15:59] So that's where the word podcasting comes from.
[00:16:02] It's all an Apple thing.
[00:16:04] That's why you know it was called iPod.
[00:16:06] So Joe Blutton also was one of the first ones to do what you know looked at as reality TV because he had a.
[00:16:15] He had a YouTube called Gia 21.
[00:16:20] It was spelled G O E H 21.
[00:16:26] If I'm not mistaken but on there he should like show his day to day on this YouTube.
[00:16:34] But also he featured him and this girl that he was dealing with that had a big ass that everybody was looking at named Tahiri.
[00:16:44] And we were tooling in for this girl with this big ass because that was the first time.
[00:16:49] A pre BBL that we seen a woman that had to ask and the legs and all that on a consistent basis and getting to know her personality.
[00:17:00] So he had like a reality reality he had loving hip hop before loving hip hop.
[00:17:05] So he pioneered a lot of stuff.
[00:17:08] So when I see Adam playing or not.
[00:17:11] I don't know if he's playing could be playing say you know you're not one of the big three in hip hop.
[00:17:16] The big three is himself academics and Vlad.
[00:17:20] See for the culture.
[00:17:23] I got to say that's objective and I got to say yo Joe button pioneered a lot of shit.
[00:17:30] So how do you omit him from being a pioneer.
[00:17:35] That's you know so it's the thing that I tweeted about flex and academic.
[00:17:41] It carries the same thing somebody who pioneered certain shit.
[00:17:45] We can't just say oh I'm this you're not that because my numbers and all that because shit you know numbers.
[00:17:55] Numbers mean a lot now but numbers didn't really matter to.
[00:17:59] When Tupac was saying we sell more records than y'all.
[00:18:03] That's when people started paying attention to the record sales before that.
[00:18:06] We just like the music because are we going to deal with record sales.
[00:18:09] Illmatic one of the greatest albums ever didn't sell a lot reasonable doubt didn't sell a lot brand new beings.
[00:18:16] You know it was a point in time in hip hop where bootlegging was heavy.
[00:18:22] Bootlegging was heavy you had dudes on the street with bootlegs so numbers now they're not going to sell a lot.
[00:18:29] It never really mattered when it came to hip hop greatness because some of the greatest albums didn't sell in a new era.
[00:18:39] When people started really selling records after like we not going to talk about vanilla ice and hammer and all that shit that was kind of like pop.
[00:18:48] Hip hop it was like hip hop.
[00:18:50] But good hip hop that we love historically never sold like five million and stuff like that.
[00:18:57] Like it was unheard of for that to happen.
[00:19:00] So when the West Coast was doing that shit selling two million and Warren G two million and three million and the chronic five million and doggie style 10 you know do these albums doing this that was unheard of.
[00:19:14] So people started really paying attention to numbers.
[00:19:18] Now that's all they pay attention to.
[00:19:21] So it doesn't even matter if it's good or bad.
[00:19:24] See just because you have numbers that don't mean people like you.
[00:19:28] I think we get in the fucked up.
[00:19:31] I think we think that because a person has certain numbers they're liked or they respected or they even wanted that doesn't mean that that just mean.
[00:19:41] Some people tune in for stupid shit.
[00:19:44] Some people tune in to tell you how much of a piece of shit you are some people tune in because they can't stand you.
[00:19:50] It's all interchangeable.
[00:19:53] But I think when we start gauging numbers with good.
[00:19:58] That's objective.
[00:20:02] But now we're just saying I got the number so that means I'm this.
[00:20:06] No I really don't.
[00:20:07] It really don't.
[00:20:09] Because when you start getting into numbers you start realizing how numbers could be manipulated.
[00:20:15] That's when shit start hitting different when you start learning about bots and you start learning about.
[00:20:22] Different tools that people are using different JavaScripts that people are using to get these numbers how people can purchase numbers how people can buy numbers how people can.
[00:20:34] Everything is for sale.
[00:20:38] Remember Kairos one made a song called the pussy is free but the crack call money.
[00:20:44] Now the pussy ain't even free no more.
[00:20:45] Well it's free for me.
[00:20:47] But I'm just saying nothing is free anymore.
[00:20:50] Everything costs so in order to look the part.
[00:20:54] You can purchase it now.
[00:20:55] When we start talking numbers and we start saying I'm number one based off of numbers.
[00:21:02] That's trouble because numbers doesn't don't mean you good because you could purchase the numbers but who has time to to to investigate whether numbers purchase or not like that and powerful pound.
[00:21:16] And we're going to talk about interviews and hip hop culture.
[00:21:21] Some of these guys with big numbers are not number one or nobody's list as far as great interviewers or great content is just that they have capital to pay.
[00:21:35] That was another thing a tweet that I made maybe last year about paid interviews.
[00:21:40] Many people are getting paid to do interviews.
[00:21:43] So as you see damn he got this one he got this one is platform he got this one on his platform damn he's interviewing everybody.
[00:21:48] See when I started doing interviews it was people respected my interview style they respected my platform and they respected me so they will grant me an interview.
[00:21:54] Now nobody has to respect my interview style they don't have to respect me or respect my platform.
[00:21:58] Now I could just give them a couple of dollars.
[00:22:01] That shifted the culture as well because now as people are getting paid for interviews.
[00:22:05] Now they have to give the person that's interviewing them a return on their investment.
[00:22:10] So now you start to see people say I'll lend them my interview style.
[00:22:14] Now I can just give them a couple of dollars.
[00:22:17] That shifted the culture as well because now as people are getting paid for interviews.
[00:22:20] Now they have to give the person that's interviewing them a return on their investment.
[00:22:26] So now you're starting to see people say I'll lend this crazy shit whether they was there or not there whether they know or don't know they just going to give them a moment because now you can get your views back so you made the money back that you paid me.
[00:22:41] That's called a RRI return on investment.
[00:22:43] So if I give you $400 for an interview you're going to at least need to get me 100,000 to 200,000 views.
[00:22:54] So you can't give me that rinky dink shit.
[00:22:56] You're going to have to say something that's so deep that I'm a go viral and we could clip this up and then I could make my money back so I could pay you.
[00:23:05] So it becomes a partnership and that's been going on for a while.
[00:23:08] It's not new.
[00:23:09] It's been going on for a pretty long time and you have people like Charleston who has made he get paid for interviews.
[00:23:15] So if he's getting paid, Boosie said he gets paid. Many people say they're getting paid.
[00:23:19] So if they're getting paid if they're saying stuff that's not going viral if they're saying stuff that's not garnering views will they still continue to get paid?
[00:23:31] No.
[00:23:32] That's where you get these crazy ass takes and this shit because people are attempting to go viral.
[00:23:38] It's not anything that's organic because if somebody said to you, name a rapper you want to sit in the room with and get gained from it.
[00:23:50] Here they opinion you're not going to pick Boosie.
[00:23:53] It's just the truth respectfully and I ain't to disrespect him but you're not going to pick him.
[00:23:57] I don't even know if he'll be on your fucking list.
[00:24:02] You know what I'm saying?
[00:24:04] If he would be on your list but when it comes to certain topics you might like his opinion.
[00:24:09] You know what I'm saying?
[00:24:11] Some of the things Boosie said in certain instances it was, it was, I got it.
[00:24:16] I understood it.
[00:24:18] But then once you go viral and once it becomes a business now you think you qualify to talk about any and everything.
[00:24:24] And one of the things we're never qualified to talk about is shit that we don't know about.
[00:24:30] See me I like to say I don't know and when I know, when I don't know and I think I don't need to know that makes me now give a fuck.
[00:24:38] So I don't even want to talk about that.
[00:24:40] So the coach has shifted to where it was a particular point and that's why I'm not on a platform with certain, well certain people is not on my platform anymore.
[00:24:49] Why I block certain people, why I don't talk to certain people because they're not qualified and somewhere they got it fucked up and thought they was qualified.
[00:24:57] Some people thought they was qualified because they were sitting with me.
[00:25:01] Some people thought they was qualified because I converse with them.
[00:25:06] Some people thought they was qualified because I might have gave them a little bit of knowledge and then they run off with shit like they qualify.
[00:25:14] But remember I'm the individual like a Joe button like others that I'm actually a creative person.
[00:25:20] I actually know how to make a beat.
[00:25:22] I actually know how to draw.
[00:25:24] I actually know how to do graphics.
[00:25:26] I know how to edit.
[00:25:28] So I'm caught and I've been around the greats.
[00:25:30] I was there.
[00:25:32] I'm not a spectator.
[00:25:34] I was there.
[00:25:36] I contributed to a lot and not even media or even some of the songs you listen to, I was there.
[00:25:42] So that's what the point that I speak from.
[00:25:45] That's the space I speak from.
[00:25:47] So now we're letting people who never made a beat, who never wrapped, who can't edit, who can't draw, who can't do graphics, who can't film, who not even articulate or don't speak well, or they just downright ugly in their face.
[00:26:00] Just talk, talk, talk and trash everything.
[00:26:04] That's when the culture is shifted because now the people who create suffer because hold on.
[00:26:12] Here it is.
[00:26:14] I'm busting my brain for these raps.
[00:26:16] Here it is.
[00:26:18] I might be digging in the crate for these records.
[00:26:20] Here it is.
[00:26:22] I might have came up with this concept and I got a non person who don't know how to do shit just say, hey, that's trash.
[00:26:26] That's bullshit.
[00:26:28] How?
[00:26:30] What are you basing that off of?
[00:26:32] What do you know how to do?
[00:26:34] So sometimes you might have seen my tweet saying to people, what do you do again?
[00:26:37] What do you do again?
[00:26:39] Because you're very opinionated for somebody that don't know how to do what's better.
[00:26:42] You're being done.
[00:26:44] For example, if it's too, if it's too electric is talking, I'm not going to walk and say, hey man, I heard the neutral wire.
[00:26:52] No, I'm going to shut the fuck up and I love electronics.
[00:26:58] I got like, damn.
[00:27:00] I might have like 30 $40,000 worth of electronics.
[00:27:04] More than that.
[00:27:05] I love electronics.
[00:27:07] But when electronics is talking and that's their field of expertise as much as I love electronics.
[00:27:14] I only know how to push the button on and off.
[00:27:17] I might be able to program it, but the wiring, the soldering and see how I know them words soldering, the wiring, the neutral, the hot and the cold.
[00:27:28] Yeah, those are buzzwords that was that I'm regurgitating because I heard those, but I don't know those.
[00:27:35] Those experts is talking about electricity and wiring and soldering.
[00:27:40] I'm going to shut up.
[00:27:43] And I find that in this culture that we end, you got people using buzzwords so much that they're trying to tell me a person who was in these studio sessions.
[00:27:54] What goes on?
[00:27:56] How it go on?
[00:27:58] And I'm like, yo, where was you at when we was there?
[00:28:01] No, I'm telling you how you telling me?
[00:28:03] Because of a girl agitation.
[00:28:07] Many people who talk to you about hip hop have never had had a record deal, never been in a record label, never had anybody say, Hey, what's your social security number so we could do these paperwork?
[00:28:19] They don't know about entertainment law from law.
[00:28:22] They don't speak legalese.
[00:28:25] They don't know shit.
[00:28:27] Everything as I heard or I thought or whatever.
[00:28:28] See, that's not how the world works.
[00:28:31] And that's some of the shit that hurt the cultures when everybody with an opinion gets to dictate what they think the culture is.
[00:28:40] This shit is bigger than rap and beats and all of that.
[00:28:44] It's bigger than a lot.
[00:28:46] It's about and to me, that's the small my new part because creativity is creativity.
[00:28:53] Shit, a motherfucker could bang on the pot and everybody could love it.
[00:28:55] Right?
[00:28:57] My thing is, okay, who owns this shit?
[00:29:00] How do we get our full get back for our art?
[00:29:05] That's it.
[00:29:07] Shit, if a motherfucker could sit there with an idea and paint two twigs on a damn canvas and sell that shit for 10 million.
[00:29:15] Well, I want to know how I could get some money for programming these drums because these drums ain't like the drums that everybody is doing.
[00:29:22] This ain't like this.
[00:29:23] I worked hard at this.
[00:29:25] So now I became the people who work hard to the people who don't work hard and it don't matter if you work hard or not because I said that shit ain't shit.
[00:29:33] But as for me, I'm the head buyer and target.
[00:29:36] But I get to get on social media and dictate and troll my way into saying what ain't shit.
[00:29:44] Oh, I'm in fucking Nigeria right now and I barely could speak English and shit like that.
[00:29:49] And my dad was one of the motherfuckers sending out the scam emails.
[00:29:54] But right now I'm telling you this one ain't shit and that ain't shit and fuck you and all this shit and that's what this shit became.
[00:30:02] So it was a point where it was people get keeping and it was fucked up as it was.
[00:30:09] At least it was some type of regulation of hold on, hold on, hold on.
[00:30:12] Who the fuck are you again?
[00:30:14] No, I shut the fuck up.
[00:30:16] Let's say you work your way up.
[00:30:18] I wasn't never sanctioned by nobody.
[00:30:21] I never got a coson, never, never.
[00:30:24] Nobody ever said, hey, we had a time in hip hop culture where you had the blog era.
[00:30:29] Many people don't even know about the blog era.
[00:30:31] It was a point where the blogs ran hip hop.
[00:30:34] Not these videos that they do on YouTube and say I'm about to do a blog because a blog is written.
[00:30:40] It's called a vlog.
[00:30:42] This is how fucked up they are.
[00:30:43] They don't even know the difference between a blog and a vlog.
[00:30:47] When it's on video, the V in vlog is for video.
[00:30:51] It's a video blog.
[00:30:53] So instead of saying blog you say vlog.
[00:30:56] So they do blogs on video and they say yeah I'm about to do this blog real quick but they ain't writing shit.
[00:31:06] When it's called a vlog.
[00:31:08] But I don't say no, I just sit back and just be like, oh man whatever.
[00:31:11] Because at this point in my life, at this stage in my life, I ain't trying to edify nobody.
[00:31:16] I ain't trying to correct nobody.
[00:31:18] This shit is in shambles, this shit is fucked up.
[00:31:20] When you say something you a hater, people say you jaded, you bitter, you're angry, you're mad and I'm like how?
[00:31:26] I look better than all y'all niggas.
[00:31:28] If we're judging that standard, so what am I jaded and bitter?
[00:31:32] I'm just trying to keep the shit pure, keep it to where we learning.
[00:31:37] And see me being who I am, I'm fortunate to sit on the phone with hip hop legends, the people that people think are legendary.
[00:31:46] We sit there and we converse for a while.
[00:31:49] So I could call EasyMobile, I could call DR period, I could call MCA, I could call different people and just talk to them.
[00:31:57] We're having talks that motherfucker if you was a fly on a wall it would blow your mind but everything is not for everybody.
[00:32:03] And not even that we're talking bad about anybody but the fucking information that they give me sometimes, I'm like holy shit.
[00:32:10] I never looked at it like that, I never thought that.
[00:32:13] So now I got people who never had these conversations, never even heard these conversations telling me, telling me about the culture.
[00:32:24] So the shit is definitely shifted.
[00:32:25] It's shifted to knowers versus popularity.
[00:32:33] Because I could go out there and fucking smash somebody in the face with a pot.
[00:32:39] I could be known, listen I could be known for running around smashing pots and people.
[00:32:45] Just doing some straight up clown before and shit.
[00:32:48] I could be known for that.
[00:32:50] And from smashing people in the face with pods, gain an audience, popularity and then convert that into now I'm a hip hop expert.
[00:33:01] And you're not going to say whether I am or not because I got the number shit.
[00:33:05] I got more fucking 600,000 subscribers.
[00:33:10] But 450,000 of them is there to see me smash people in the face with pods.
[00:33:17] Now I'm converting the pie watchers to people following me and liking my personality to fucking move me whatever I do.
[00:33:26] That's Adam 22 went from a BMX rider to just now this hip hop media platform.
[00:33:33] But I don't see him breaking new artists, I don't see new artists coming from his platform meaning that I never heard of this person before.
[00:33:42] Now I heard of them the question that answers the format makes me interested.
[00:33:48] I haven't seen that maybe it exists.
[00:33:50] I haven't seen it though.
[00:33:52] I haven't seen it.
[00:33:54] I could say that I broke new artists.
[00:33:57] I didn't know who the fuck Max B was.
[00:33:59] I didn't know who the fuck Dave East was.
[00:34:01] I didn't know who Fetty Wap is.
[00:34:03] Pat Pooce was a part of his career where he was trying to reestablish himself after losing his own or leaving whatever.
[00:34:11] His situation was with Jive.
[00:34:13] So I did his King in New York campaign.
[00:34:15] He was everywhere when I was doing that.
[00:34:18] And that's all I could remember off cat real quick, but it's a lot more, but this is not about me.
[00:34:23] So I'm just seeing the hip hop culture shift from people who actually know and do and people who got numbers.
[00:34:31] So are we going to judge shit off numbers?
[00:34:34] You know what?
[00:34:36] Let's everybody act to ask.
[00:34:38] Let's everybody do whatever we got to do to get numbers.
[00:34:41] Act to make you an expert because you got numbers.
[00:34:46] And that's where we at.
[00:34:48] So it's a numbers game.
[00:34:51] And then you got some old people that are stubborn as shit that don't understand the youth.
[00:35:00] Then you got the youth who say, yo, you old so I'm not listening to you.
[00:35:05] Then you got the people in the middle.
[00:35:07] But if you go, if you notice them and this is respectfully, I'm not trying to disrespect them.
[00:35:11] I don't respect nobody.
[00:35:13] If you take it as disrespect, I don't care.
[00:35:15] Most of the people who get the numbers and people you watch or people who crashed a lot.
[00:35:21] So you're not really watching them to see if they're intelligent or anything.
[00:35:27] You really watching them because they're going to fucking bug out.
[00:35:31] Eventually one of these streams, they're going to bug the fuck out.
[00:35:35] I mean, pay attention.
[00:35:37] I started looking at streamers and I'm like, why?
[00:35:38] Fuck is breaking shit?
[00:35:40] I see motherfuckers getting drunk.
[00:35:42] I see all types of shit.
[00:35:44] So it's like, what the fuck am I watching again?
[00:35:46] I'm like, yo, I'm a whole grown ass man.
[00:35:48] What the fuck am I doing?
[00:35:50] What am I watching this shit for?
[00:35:53] And most of the people who go on the numbers partake in niggas shit.
[00:35:57] It's just the truth.
[00:36:00] It's just the truth.
[00:36:02] I thought hip hop when I came into it.
[00:36:06] And as it evolved to what it is today, I thought it was all about, yo,
[00:36:11] I got these fucking dope ass beats.
[00:36:14] I shoot these dope ass videos.
[00:36:16] I do these dope ass interviews.
[00:36:20] I mean, how many platforms is really doing that?
[00:36:26] This is a lot of people talking if it ain't a Venus verse Mars platform
[00:36:31] where it's men talking about how much they hate women or as women talk about
[00:36:36] how much they hate men or they jointly talk about how much they hate each other.
[00:36:40] Or some fucking respectfully somebody talking about hip hop,
[00:36:48] but can't tell you the difference between a fucking high hat
[00:36:51] and a goddamn kick drum or kick.
[00:36:55] We don't even say drum.
[00:36:56] They don't even know what a triangle is.
[00:37:02] They don't know shit.
[00:37:04] They don't know shit.
[00:37:07] They don't know what cadence mean.
[00:37:10] They don't know what stands of me.
[00:37:14] They don't know anything, but they are hip hop talkers and don't know shit about hip hop.
[00:37:20] Because hip hop is the creativity of it.
[00:37:23] And understanding the creativity.
[00:37:27] So if you don't understand the creativity, how do you judge what's good or bad?
[00:37:33] If you don't grasp the lyrics, if you're not from a cloth,
[00:37:37] when this man or woman says something, how the fuck do you know what they talk about
[00:37:41] if it's something regional?
[00:37:44] So when niggas were saying 12, I didn't know what the fuck they was talking about.
[00:37:48] I'm like, what the fuck is 12?
[00:37:50] I had to educate myself on what 12 was.
[00:37:54] Oh, that's the police.
[00:37:56] All right, I get it.
[00:37:58] But see now you got niggas respectfully.
[00:38:00] Academics is Jamaican.
[00:38:02] He be like, I finna do it now.
[00:38:04] What the fuck you know about finna and you from Jamaica?
[00:38:06] Jamaica?
[00:38:08] Finna ain't Jamaican?
[00:38:10] Finna ain't Jamaican.
[00:38:13] I'm confused.
[00:38:16] So now we got people
[00:38:18] that don't know shit about hip hop.
[00:38:20] They're saying this is dope or he spit fire.
[00:38:23] This is hot.
[00:38:25] And then you find out,
[00:38:27] then you find out people who have been doing that
[00:38:32] also have been getting paid to do that.
[00:38:37] Academics admittedly told everybody, yo, I get paid to promote certain shit.
[00:38:44] So I be saying shit is hot.
[00:38:45] I get paid healthy and wealthy.
[00:38:47] So is it really hot?
[00:38:49] Like myself, all right.
[00:38:51] I do pay promo.
[00:38:53] Hit up doggy diamonds on Instagram if you need me to promote any of your products.
[00:38:58] When I listen to the record,
[00:39:00] I listen to every record and people say, yo man, listen to me.
[00:39:04] Tell me if it's hot.
[00:39:06] You know what I say?
[00:39:08] Listen, it's not on me whether it's hot or not.
[00:39:10] I'm just going to put it out for the people.
[00:39:12] But a lot of times I don't endorse the music because
[00:39:15] what I think is hot, everybody might not think it's hot.
[00:39:18] So I just put it out.
[00:39:20] What do y'all think about this?
[00:39:22] Let me know, give the person some feedback.
[00:39:24] That's what I do.
[00:39:26] But if I was paid $5,000 to put the shit out,
[00:39:28] I'm going to say, man, this the next hole.
[00:39:30] And all I hear is God damn cool.
[00:39:33] He rapping this kid.
[00:39:35] Oh my God.
[00:39:37] You hear this?
[00:39:39] This is little Kim.
[00:39:41] If I got paid.
[00:39:42] So I don't, well if I got paid a certain amount.
[00:39:46] But I never been on the take.
[00:39:48] You can't pay me to say anything.
[00:39:51] You can't pay me to do anything.
[00:39:56] Because if a person could pay you to say something,
[00:39:59] if a person could pay you to do something,
[00:40:02] a person also could pay you to stick their dick in your ass.
[00:40:07] So where does this stop?
[00:40:09] I'm not for sale.
[00:40:10] My opinion is not for sale.
[00:40:13] My thoughts are not for sale.
[00:40:16] That's just me.
[00:40:18] Maybe that's why some people say, yeah, but you're broke or whatever.
[00:40:22] Whatever people want to say.
[00:40:24] It's not, nobody ever saw my bank account on know how,
[00:40:26] whatever, but that's not for me to try to prove anything.
[00:40:30] That's when you care.
[00:40:32] I'm just saying.
[00:40:35] So of course, when you're doing advertising for people,
[00:40:37] you're going to say, which you've been paid to say.
[00:40:45] You know you've been paid to big it up.
[00:40:48] So you're going to, you're going to big it up.
[00:40:50] And that becomes an again, not we dealing with numbers again.
[00:40:54] So when we dealing with numbers and we saying this number is this
[00:40:58] and this number is that and that,
[00:41:00] that don't mean it's real or authentic.
[00:41:02] So these numbers is kind of, these numbers is getting tricky.
[00:41:07] They've been tricky.
[00:41:10] But when some of us say certain things and just questioning
[00:41:14] just common sense shit, then you were a hater, then you this,
[00:41:17] then you that.
[00:41:19] Now I'm not hating on nobody.
[00:41:21] Nothing.
[00:41:23] I'm just asking the question sometimes.
[00:41:25] And if I come in a fucking crib and I know I had programs
[00:41:28] in a fucking crib and I know I had protein in my shake a bottle
[00:41:33] and I didn't risk the bottle out and I smell something that smells like fucking
[00:41:37] like, like a fart in this motherfucker.
[00:41:40] And I know I wasn't in here for and I got the right to say
[00:41:44] if my cousin or somebody is here, one of my homies is in the crib.
[00:41:48] I say, yo, nigga, you for you.
[00:41:50] Why are you blaming me for fucking because it's not smelling.
[00:41:53] But it's up to me to investigate.
[00:41:55] Oh, no, yo, you know what?
[00:41:56] I was wrong. It wasn't you.
[00:41:58] It's this fucking bottle right here that smelled like that.
[00:42:00] So we see in numbers and we see in subscribers and we see in views
[00:42:05] and we see in certain shit.
[00:42:07] What I want you people to know.
[00:42:10] I ain't say nothing else to you tonight.
[00:42:13] I told you everything can be purchased views, likes, live viewers, streams.
[00:42:25] Google it right now.
[00:42:28] Ain't no underground secret shit no more.
[00:42:31] This is all on open.
[00:42:33] You could Google right now.
[00:42:35] Buying YouTube subscribers.
[00:42:38] Google it.
[00:42:40] Google buying YouTube plays.
[00:42:45] Google it.
[00:42:47] Google buying Spotify streams.
[00:42:49] Everything is for sale.
[00:42:51] Buying Tiktok.
[00:42:52] Everything is for sale.
[00:42:54] Everything is for sale.
[00:42:56] And I'm not saying people cheated.
[00:42:58] Let's not say that.
[00:43:00] I'm just saying if it could be purchased and people are buying it
[00:43:05] then how we validate numbers if anybody can fucking do it.
[00:43:11] So the numbers don't matter if they could be bought.
[00:43:14] Now we have to go off of your knowledge of it and your expertise in it
[00:43:21] because anybody could get the fucking numbers right.
[00:43:24] That's what industry plants are right.
[00:43:27] That's what that's what an industry plan is.
[00:43:29] An industry plant is somebody who comes out of nowhere.
[00:43:32] We never seen them, never heard them.
[00:43:34] They blue checked on every goddamn social media platform
[00:43:37] and they be interviewed on the breakfast club.
[00:43:39] And we said they're like who the fuck is this?
[00:43:42] We don't know they foundation.
[00:43:44] We never heard a demo.
[00:43:46] We don't know what town they from.
[00:43:48] We don't know nothing.
[00:43:50] How the fuck you get two million fucking followers.
[00:43:53] Who the fuck is this?
[00:43:55] Oh, they're from such and such.
[00:43:58] And you like but yeah, but I never heard nothing not one song.
[00:44:05] Anything could be bought and paid for.
[00:44:07] I have a good female friend who told me one time that
[00:44:11] well this was under the old regime so this new regime didn't do this.
[00:44:16] This wasn't access was Twitter.
[00:44:18] So let's just put that out there because sometimes
[00:44:20] I'd be saying shit and forgetting what for what
[00:44:23] with format I'm speaking under what platform I'm on.
[00:44:26] And then the platform kicks my ass for fucking revealing real shit.
[00:44:30] But you know, truth tellers there's no reward in being a truth teller.
[00:44:34] Honestly, that's why this is why YouTube is kicking my ass now
[00:44:39] because I've been telling the truth.
[00:44:41] But I had a friend who told me that Twitter had reached out to her
[00:44:46] and was like yo do you want to be an influencer?
[00:44:47] And she was like how is like well don't worry.
[00:44:50] We'll push you through we'll we'll boost your post will make sure you verify.
[00:44:55] We'll you know just we just need you to tweet and say certain things at certain times.
[00:45:01] Just like I don't know if any of you have ever been to Facebook,
[00:45:05] Facebook jail they will tell you we're moving you down in the feed.
[00:45:12] We're moving your posts down in the feed meaning like many people are less
[00:45:17] than they need to see you.
[00:45:19] They're telling you that you will get a message because you did this
[00:45:23] we're moving you down in the feed.
[00:45:25] You don't think they move people up in the feed.
[00:45:27] You don't think they move people down.
[00:45:30] So just because you see somebody just because you hear somebody
[00:45:36] that don't mean they even qualify as a fucking talk.
[00:45:40] Because when a person speaks a lot ask them just ask them
[00:45:47] do you know how to do it again.
[00:45:49] So in hip hop what do you do what did you create?
[00:45:54] Just ask them that.
[00:45:56] He's talking heads and yo this is whack or this shit is trash or this freestyle is bullshit
[00:46:02] or this nigga's corny because you never really see them big in anything up
[00:46:06] unless they got paid but everything is whack right.
[00:46:09] Ask them.
[00:46:11] Damn me beat you ever meet.
[00:46:13] You know what quantizing is.
[00:46:15] So yo when you do your hi hat do you fuck with the one eighth or do you like the one fourth.
[00:46:22] What about the one 16 and then when you do your drums you put it on one 16 triple it
[00:46:27] or you do the one eighth or do you do a double time and then put it on one eighth triple it
[00:46:31] which is really equivalent to one 16 triple it but it's double time so instead of being 16
[00:46:37] beats per measure is eight because the beat is fastest double so you got to take it down
[00:46:41] ask people shit like that and I bet you they be sitting there looking at you're like
[00:46:45] what are you talking about or do you know about velocity so when you do your hi hats you know
[00:46:51] the drummer doesn't hit the hi hat like he go.
[00:46:54] Do you know about velocity ask them about that I bet you they don't know.
[00:47:01] Ask them do they know what mask ain't is.
[00:47:06] Ask them do they know what masking is is graphics.
[00:47:09] Ask them do they know what opusy is.
[00:47:13] Ask them do they know what tracking is and videos.
[00:47:18] Ask them do they know what the f stop is when they had a camera in the hand just ask them.
[00:47:26] Ask them how many DB's when they do's and when they own a mixing board.
[00:47:32] Do they like to have the mic volume and then they can use the mic volume
[00:47:38] at like one o'clock or two o'clock ways you or do you know what a booster is.
[00:47:43] Do you know what phantom power is just ask them shit like that.
[00:47:46] Just ask them simple shit yo do you got to condense a mic.
[00:47:51] What you're using for your phantom power you know what a cloud lifter is.
[00:47:56] Just ask them.
[00:48:00] Ask them do they know what MIDI is.
[00:48:03] Ask them if they know what US or USC.
[00:48:08] Oh they're going to know that for the phones but just ask them with all these creative.
[00:48:13] Yo and then you got motherfuckers calling each other creatives.
[00:48:18] What the fuck is a creative I'm not a creative.
[00:48:22] I'm a creator.
[00:48:25] Creative is something.
[00:48:26] Creative is something.
[00:48:31] How could I say this a creative.
[00:48:35] It's something that you are.
[00:48:39] When you're making shit but a creator is creative.
[00:48:43] But you were creative but now it's like oh I'm a creative the fuck is that who started that's like pod to me.
[00:48:50] But like I said the language shifts people just start saying shit.
[00:48:54] That just don't mean that I'm going to shift with it because shit that don't make no sense.
[00:48:58] And another thing respectfully respectfully.
[00:49:05] I don't let white people dictate my language or how I go about hip hop.
[00:49:10] I was being real shit ain't start from them.
[00:49:13] They are people who watched us create it watch people make it.
[00:49:17] They just find financed it.
[00:49:20] They don't dictate the language because the language come from the street it come from the hoods and it comes from regional.
[00:49:25] That's why I don't say finna that's why I don't say 12 that's why I'm say certain shit because that's not no Brooklyn shit.
[00:49:31] I say what we say in Brooklyn I don't say shoot the fade.
[00:49:34] I don't say none of that shit because that's not from my area.
[00:49:37] Regardless of what we are tribal regional people.
[00:49:40] And that's why hip hop at one point is shifted because we used to respect each other's regions.
[00:49:45] So I knew I was going to get some Midwest.
[00:49:48] Some Midwest shit I know I was going to get some funky shit from like the Midwest.
[00:49:51] I know I was going to get some gangster shit from the West.
[00:49:55] I know I was going to get some gangsta shit from the West.
[00:49:58] I know I was going to get some gangsta shit from the West.
[00:50:00] I know Miami and all that was going to give me some good bass music.
[00:50:03] I know the South.
[00:50:06] They was going to want a party but they was they was kind of like a gumbo because you had different things in the south you had gangsta in the south.
[00:50:11] You had.
[00:50:13] Crunk is really just bass.
[00:50:16] Crunk is really just a gangsta.
[00:50:19] Crunk is a gangsta.
[00:50:21] Crunk is a gangsta.
[00:50:23] Crunk is a gangsta.
[00:50:25] Crunk is a gangsta.
[00:50:27] Crunk is a gangsta.
[00:50:28] Crunk is really just bass music slowed down.
[00:50:32] Same shit.
[00:50:34] And all bass music crazy as the shit sound.
[00:50:37] Bass music ain't nothing but motherfucking Planet Rock.
[00:50:40] Part nine hundred.
[00:50:42] All that shit got Planet Rock beat in it.
[00:50:45] That's a whole other story, but you had Luke.
[00:50:48] You had so many different now where the fuck is the motherfucker from?
[00:50:51] You listen to their music you be like where the fuck this nigga from?
[00:50:54] You be like yo.
[00:50:56] The nigga from Pennsylvania.
[00:50:58] Pennsylvania?
[00:51:00] Why the fuck he saying those words?
[00:51:03] Ain't that what they say in this place?
[00:51:05] Yeah, yo.
[00:51:07] This is just where we are so I realize a lot of shit shifted.
[00:51:11] And is it good or bad?
[00:51:13] I don't know.
[00:51:15] To me it could be good and bad but sometimes you know that's the duality of stuff but to me sometimes it's bad.
[00:51:22] But sometimes when the real people who really, really put down shit get omitted from it for new styles and new types.
[00:51:33] So we get rid of flex, replace them with academics, find them.
[00:51:36] And now we're going to eventually they're going to replace academics because remember when you set a person in the seat you also could take the seat from them.
[00:51:44] Always remember that.
[00:51:46] You could take the seat from him.
[00:51:48] You see the funny Marco Dool was doing what he was doing.
[00:51:53] I guess the little Caucasian girl with his understudy and then she just took his shit.
[00:52:01] She just took his shit.
[00:52:04] That's just where we at, you know?
[00:52:06] So we just got to you know if you really care because y'all hip hop and hip hop hip hop hip hop.
[00:52:12] Hip hop, old fucking day on my timeline.
[00:52:15] People ask me question hip hop and they're like you listen man I'm working on my fucking credit school.
[00:52:20] I got shit that I'm doing I got shit that I'm working on that doesn't evolve hip hop like called real life.
[00:52:27] Like I went food shopping today and shit.
[00:52:29] I needed some fucking bananas.
[00:52:31] I bought a smoothie that I didn't like the flavor.
[00:52:33] I'm never getting that shit again.
[00:52:35] Like I be dealing with real shit.
[00:52:37] Hip hop is not real shit to me.
[00:52:39] It's something that I listen to, something that I create, something I do.
[00:52:42] I also am a multi talented, multi faceted person.
[00:52:49] So I got other shit going on.
[00:52:51] When a person sitting there all day talking about hip hop this or hip hop that I'd be like what the fuck you don't do nothing else?
[00:52:57] Do you cook nigga?
[00:52:59] The fuck do you eat?
[00:53:02] You know that's what I'd be like what else do you do?
[00:53:06] Like this shit just took over your fucking whole wavelength in your whole life.
[00:53:10] I be thinking about real shit like God damn how the fuck I keep getting two-paced on my bathroom mirror.
[00:53:15] I gotta get some windex.
[00:53:17] I be thinking about shit like that motherfuckers be told your hip hop.
[00:53:20] Yo listen, listen to me.
[00:53:23] Got two-paced on my bathroom mirror.
[00:53:25] Let me clean my mirrors and shit.
[00:53:27] But motherfuckers be talking about hip hop and all that shit and take a picture in a dirty ass mirror.
[00:53:32] You so worried about hip hop you start not giving the fuck about the shit that you should care about like your life.
[00:53:39] Like what you got going on like what you're doing.
[00:53:42] What is your purpose? Your goals? Your aspirations? A lot of people just don't care about that because they just want to be in the hip hop conversation.
[00:53:48] Now the conversation is all inclusive and then you got to know hows, to know it alls and to know nothings.
[00:53:57] Just all talking at one thing and now we can't tell who's who no more.
[00:54:04] Because it is social media shit.
[00:54:05] And it's you know I could say I'm partly responsible for fucking up on something.
[00:54:15] I made a mistake.
[00:54:17] I made a mistake by sharing platforms with certain people who I shared my platform with who thought because they sat next to me.
[00:54:26] I said this earlier because they sat next to me that they were qualified to just start saying off the wall shit.
[00:54:31] It's like whoa, whoa, whoa easy tiger slow the fuck down now. Now you bugging.
[00:54:37] But see again them numbers are tricky once a motherfucker gain an audience.
[00:54:43] They just start saying shit.
[00:54:46] They just start saying shit.
[00:54:49] So it's my first time doing a space.
[00:54:54] Not going to be my last time.
[00:54:56] I'm going to try to do this more often.
[00:54:59] Maybe daily maybe like the same time every day.
[00:55:03] I don't know.
[00:55:05] But this is really it and they're going to just want to make sure y'all know doggy diamonds TV is the brand regardless doggy diamonds TV the inner little TV doggy diamonds TV.
[00:55:17] I'm on all streaming platforms.
