New Hire Orientation 0100

[00:00:03] Speaker A: Oh, hey, everybody. It's closing time. Okay, you don't got to go home, but you can't stay in closing time. Opening all the doors. [00:00:19] Speaker B: Hold up. You gonna get this work. You gonna get this work. [00:00:23] Speaker A: No. Listen up, workers. [00:00:25] Speaker B: Overtime is mandatory this weekend. [00:00:27] Speaker A: Wait, no. Huge. Oh, no. [00:00:31] Speaker B: Let me work. Please let me work. Let me work. Please let me work. Let me work. Please let me work. Let me work. [00:00:42] Speaker A: What's happening? What's happening? What's happening? Welcome. Welcome. In the words of Bilba, welcome to mandatory overtime, y'. All. I'm your main man, DJ High Star Sexy. The first episode. Got some pseudo intellectuals out there that would call it the inaugural episode. It's the first annual episode. None of that. This is just the first episode of mandatory overtime. I appreciate y' all being here. It's really a social experiment and consistency, you know what I mean? Y' all could have been anywhere in the world, but you're here listening to me, if you. And for that, I appreciate you also. We wanted to go ahead and kind of flesh through the purpose or the aim of mandatory overtime in this orientation episode, if you will. So the aim of mandatory overtime is simply to recalibrate manhood and what we define as manhood in today's society, in this distracted dystopia that we live in, the focused man is king. So I encourage all my brothers to set your goals and stay focused on them out there and. And also, you know, just come along for the ride. Now, that brings me to one of my first things. Some housekeeping stuff. Some tenants in here. I'm 39 years old, y'. All. Okay? Oh, it's a little quiet. I said I'm 39, all right? Give it up. But that being said, I'm a grown man, all right? So we not about to be pausing y' all to death and all of that and O homo and all of that stuff. We grown. We grown. All right, now, some things still can sound off collar and be pause worthy, but I'm an a native New Yorker, so, like the pause game. My pause game is impeccable. I could find a pause worthy phrase and damn near anything so I won't get started so that we won't have to, you know what I mean, go there or whatnot. Couple other housekeeping things. I do have a email address set up, so mandatory ot704gmail.com is where you'll be able to communicate and stay. Stay in, you know, touch with us here at mandatory overtime. And, yeah, just email us about anything. I don't know, depending on what you email us about is what the response will be. So make sure that you shoot us an email over@mabitate ot704gmail.com. But outside of that, man, what's up? What's up? Finally getting this monkey off my back, if you will. Proverbially speaking. You know, through. Through preparing for the show and stuff like that. I have several different notes and things that I want to touch and don't want to miss or whatnot. So I may be just mentioning them throughout as we kind of finding our foot in for finding our cadence here in the, you know, in the podcast sphere, if you will. First thing I want to put on the record though, is anti. My fault, y'. All. Hold on, hold on. My bad. Anti. Into anti intellectualism. All right, there's people out here that is championing vibing to music, quote unquote. All right, Esoteric Rome is going to come out early. Pause. I gotta. Might have to give me a little X Files sound effect for that. But Vibe is short for vibrations. Vibrations. So if you, if you're vibrating to music and tunes and stuff, the words are. The sound waves from the words are very much a part of that musical experience. All right, I'm not going to get too far off in the tin foil hat and all of that stuff because we just getting started. But you know, I could kind of get a little window into my personality with all of that. But yeah, like I said, it goes back to my original point. Anti intellectualism in the war on intellectualism. So that being said, all opinions, like with the emails and everything like that, everything is all welcome, you know, however, we will be calling out any china, any kind of attempts, you know, passive aggressively, overtly or covertly against being smart for whatever reason. That shit. Oh my gosh, it's gonna take some adjusting to get used to y'. All my fault. But that. It just pisses me off. I'm be honest. Like, I don't know when it ever became cool to. To not be smart, but I'm not gonna act obtuse anyways, outside of that another tenant that I'm going to set right now. We're going to be very intentional with our language here in this community, y'. All. We're going to be very intentional with our language. Meaning we're not. We're not doing the Y thing. We're not okay in emails or anything like that. We're not doing that because first of all, it's been co opted by. By white people already. So, you know, in the gaming community, streaming world and stuff like that has co opted that y n term. I didn't never liked it from the beginning. Even though I am a habitual nigger spitter. Like I will say nigga throughout the day. Of course. Like I still use the word please. I gotta figure out a sound effect for that. But yeah, so we're not. We're not doing that. None of that y n talk. It's salute to Deontay Kyle. Much love to that brother. I remember an episode of Grits and Eggs where they. They kind of took a stance against that as well. But we not doing that. We praising that. Now I'm not saying we got to call each other young king and noble and all of that, but. Or gods and all of that. But we certain. Certain language. We're going to stay away from here. Outside of that though, again, we. The main thing here is to be fearless or whatnot. We're going to work on self improvement and self awareness. So gonna work on being better today. Anytime that we about to put criticism out there or critique out there, as far as myself personally while I'm on any of these episodes, be kind of putting the mirror on myself and. And looking inward to see where. Where any of my perceived date really comes from. And I'll try to be as vulnerable. Not try that try my bad. Y' all hold on that try. All right, but now we're gonna actually do. We're gonna actually do. So get into it though. Let's get into the episode today. What is manhood? So I wanted to start off with every. If for instance, we have any guests or anybody on the show that's kind of gonna. That is going to be a common question that we're gonna ask everyone that, you know, that graces the community with their presence. This is the point where you would insert in Webster's Dictionary defines manhood as head ass. But we're not doing that. I'm gonna give y' all my. Let me give y' all some qualities that I think of when I think of manhood. Accountability, responsibility, ethical integrity, hard work, you know, decisive. Decisive is a good one. So those are a couple of my adjectives. I love to hear yalls out there for a manhood. And it's going to be something that's dynamic, if you will. Right. It's going to continue to grow as far as the. The definition that what we're. What we're doing here as far as recalibrating. So as y' all continue to, you know, contribute and as the weeks go on, move forward. We are going to continue to add to this definition of manhood. Yeah. And throughout. So as we see different examples of people being real men out there, we're gonna highlight that also. I' ma have a segment of Brotherly Love that we always. That we're going to include into the episodes as well. Where we gonna get flowers? Where flowers is due, man. And we make sure that we do that. All right? So shout out to that and that. Speaking of man, Big shout out to Big Bank. Big Bank. Call that Big Bank Black or just Big Bank. I know Big bank from the duct tape ENT days on DVDs back in the day. Shout out to that brother, Rest in peace, trouble, and shout out to Alley Boy. But the duct tape. Duct Tape ent was running around Atlanta at one point and. And doing a thing, making a name for themselves and stuff. And now that we see Big bank has, you know, moved. Move forward in his career to doing the Big Facts podcast, if I'm not mistaken. But he recently interviewed Young Thug. Young Thug, of course, being released from jail. But late last year, I want to say, did an interview with Young Thug, because Young Thug's been all over the headlines and stuff the past couple of weeks for leaked jail calls, for leaked footage of him in an interrogation room and talking to the fuzz. You know what I'm saying? So Young Thug, in an attempt at damage control, set up this interview with Big bank, and they sat down and got to it. So first off, I do want to give Big Bank. I want to go ahead and salute that brother, give him his flowers, give him some brotherly love, because he. He was looking to hold Thug accountable. He. A lot of questions that he asked, I don't see a lot of other people having the courage to. To ask a superstar, if you will, or a star. Right. A celebrity. And I'm contemplating. Going on. I was contemplating talking about one of my tenants before. I forget later. But it. Let's go ahead. Well, sorry, y'. All. It. Let's go ahead. No idolatry. There's no idolatry that we're gonna engage in and stuff like that. It's one of my tenants. So let's get back to it, though. Young Thug, being a celebrity, there's a lot of people that'd be nervous to ask him certain questions and things like that. But Big bank, you know, having some history with, he was able to ask certain questions that other people weren't able to. One of the big things, though, that I did observe with the Thug Interview is the lack of accountability with just in general, right? And then also his use of the word I versus we. So again, go ahead and say it, man, but give love and salute to Grits and Eggs podcast once again. And Deontay Kyle and what they doing over there. But they. They speak about accountability a lot. You could tell those brothers hold each other accountable and everything, but whenever it comes to Young Thug, it didn't seem like he was holding himself accountable. In addition to that, his use of the word I versus saying we. Again, bring up Deontay, because you hit that brother in the patreon or in the discord and stuff like that. He's always talking community, but you could tell in subtle nuances of a person their use of I versus the use of we. That brother uses we a lot whenever he's including his community in anything and engaging on the opposite side of that. Thug kept saying I, I, I what he did for people. He even went as far as saying I made you and had to correct himself and check his hubris at the door and said, well, God made you, but I help, though. I help. Like, that's such a wild thing to say. You know, again, you gotta watch people in their. In their. Their language and stuff. Somebody that uses I too much is a selfish person. More. More than likely they, you know, looking for external validation for that they do. So him saying, you know, I did this for so and so. I did this for so and so. You looking for somebody to pat you on the back or something, brother? You know, it's always when people get engaged in that eye talk, it's always inflating their ego or their hubris and bigging themselves up. But it's never highlighting, you know, the I part where you may have done something wrong, or the I part where it requires awareness and you can't be in a state of arrested development to realize that. So that's one main thing that I noticed from that Thug interview is just his use of the word I versus we. That was cringy, man. So in this journey of community building and stuff like that that I'm on again, my partners will tell you all the time, yo, we we on that, right? We on that. We talk. Yeah. And that sounds cringy. As soon as somebody says it, be like, I, I, I. Nevertheless, though fire interview, very introspective interview. The interview went on for maybe two hours and some change. At the beginning of the interview, I was really rocking with some. A lot of the questions that Big bank was asking. Thug, ask him what his first memory was, you know, like his first. His first memories of in general, period. Right. Asking him about his family and his upbringing and stuff like that. And. And one other thing, again, from the first thing that. That stood out to me about the interview as far as with the lacking of accountability with it. Let's go ahead and get real. Hold on. I thought that we wasn't going to have to go here. Yeah. [00:17:21] Speaker B: Let me work. [00:17:22] Speaker A: All right. [00:17:23] Speaker B: Please let me work. [00:17:24] Speaker A: Okay. [00:17:25] Speaker B: Get that water. He about to get this work. He about to get this work. [00:17:30] Speaker A: So this. For all of my jail partners out there or any partners of mine that have sat down and had to do time or whatnot, there comes a point when you. If you're. If you're so blessed, if God blesses you to see, you know, to touch back down and. And see freedom again. Whether. Whether the courts found you guilty or not, there still comes a moment of atonement that you have to have with yourself and with the events or whatever events that led for you to get into that jam. You have to have a moment of atonement and awareness about how you got there. Are you bound to repeat it or you bound to be stunted in a state of arrested development? And that's what we see with Young Thug right now. So once you're honest with yourself about what you've done, you can kind of get through and start doing the work to get through. But it's all you have to look internally, if you looking externally for people to validate claims of you calling people a snitch or people to validate stuff that you've done when you was pillow talking behind the walls or when you had to sit down in the interrogation room, you're not doing the work on yourself, brother. And that's going to lead me to a deeper topic later about our physical appearance and how that tells a story about ourselves. But I'm going to try to slow walk this thing. But with Thug, let's just say for argument's sake, y', all, I rob a bank. I rob a bank, clean, spick and span or whatever. I get picked up as a person of interest because somebody said that they might have saw me or whatever like that. I get one of the best lawyers in Charlotte America, by the way. We in Charlotte. I didn't get to get a chance to mention that earlier, but so I get one of the best attorneys out here in Charlotte. They work they magic and the courts find me not guilty. However, if I robbed that bank and I was able to get away with it. I still need to atone for what I did and I need to recalibrate what's right or what's wrong in my life or in my world. Right. So. Or with my moral compass, I would have to get that back balanced out. So I think that's what. What our brothers that come out of jail or they make it out, I don't want to say on technicalities, but if they get out of any kind of jam and they haven't done the work on themselves, like as far as self atonement, forgiving themselves for any. Any for putting themselves in them situations or taking themselves off the streets away from their families and stuff like that, if they just run from that, then you're going to be in a state of arrested development. All right. And I' ma just close it on that again. It's fine. It's the first annual episode. Being very vulnerable, by the way, with y', all, with these different voices. And the thing that I'll say to close this out with the young Thug, man, whoopty do. Whoopty freaking do, man. Leads me to another topic, though. It's having a conversation with a man the other day about this physically and our physical appearance tells a story, whether we realize it or not. So I take the case study of Gunna versus young thug. Gunna comes out of jail from all for everything that we see. He's focused on self introspective. He's focused on self improvement and getting himself right. And that. That discipline is showing, you know, on him physically or whatnot. Right. Like as far as how he shows up. And the gunner that was in jail, I mean, that went in jail and got locked up is of course, like, it's not the same gunner that we see now running marathons and everything like that and promoting this health. Excuse me, the health stuff. Thug, on the other hand, again, your body or your physical appearance tells a story about you. It tells a story about you. So, you know, if you walk around with a little gut, lean gut or something like that, or you're just eating good, been eating healthy. Because before you went in, before Thug went in, when he had want to say easy breezy, beautiful thugger girls or whatnot, he performed live and he was noticeably chunkier or heavier than. So the weight gain for Thug is not a surprise. However, the way that his skin is Thug and then couple that with the weight, it seems like the jewels, all the jewelry and stuff like that is like you put in deodorant over a bunch of funk, dog. I'm Gonna be real with you, dog. [00:23:03] Speaker B: Let me work. [00:23:04] Speaker A: I'm gonna be real with you, bro. [00:23:05] Speaker B: Please let me work. He about to get this work. He about to get this work. [00:23:10] Speaker A: So, you know, again, is this just all love and promote love to my brothers, but we gotta do better whenever it comes to me Personally, again, I'm 39. I personally do not wear no durag out in public if I could help it. I'm not wearing a durag in Walmart or Target or Food Lion. I've had my error when I've done it. I don't judge others that do do that. Oh, I don't know. Is that judging? If I don't. If I actively don't do that and I. And I vocalize it or I tell people, am I, like, subtly judging y', all, let me know. But I don't wear durags out in public. Salute to Auntie Monique. I remember when she mentioned, you know, she was just. She gave a plea to younger black America for us to take the durags off and the bonnets off whenever we out in public. All right? And that resonated with me. So I'll be real about that. But it goes to my deeper point of our physical appearance. It tells a story. So just be mindful of the story that you're telling whenever you walk around. And, yeah, I don't got nothing else on that. I'm gonna run this back because it was a bar. It was a high star bar. In this distracted dystopia that we live in, the focused man is king. [00:24:41] Speaker B: All right, hold up, hold up. He gonna get this work. He gonna get this work. [00:24:47] Speaker A: So let's go ahead and move forward, though. The next thing that I had written down was who can comment on culture? This is a very interesting. I don't know if it's interesting, because I'm gonna just get straight to it, right? We just gonna talk. But white people shouldn't be commenting on black people's business. All right? I said. I said it. The reason is because they feel a need to coach, advise, consult. If you don't get the my face with that, Yo, I'm not trying to hear no insulting from y'. All. I'm not trying to hear no buys me. I don't think that you got my best interest at heart, so get the hand. Stop trying to gaslight me with all of this. You know what I'm saying? I missed the last one, y'. [00:25:49] Speaker B: All. [00:25:49] Speaker A: But with all of this nonsense in this, I'm not. Nah, we not doing that. This Thought of mine or the note when I wrote it down, it was when Dr. Umar was going through all of his. Right now, Dr. Umar still is going through some things, but it was looking crazy for him. About a month or two ago. The first thing, I'm not sure the time of timeline of events, but his. He got on, he. He got. Tried to get ahead of the bad press, got online, was pleading to his followers for money, right? Donations, donations, donations. And he was pleading to them for money, which made him. Made him look, you know, peculiar, bizarre, Asking for money for personal reasons. And then it came out a few days later that he was being audited. His school had a eighty thousand dollar tax lien on it. And you know, Dr. Umar was going through it a little bit. Some financial obstacles, some obstacles just in the, in the press and PR wise as well. And what I saw was the response of. What I saw was. [00:27:19] Speaker B: Let me work, please let me work. [00:27:22] Speaker A: I saw the response of people where, no, y', all, that's not how we move, y'. All. I'mma just be real. That's not how we move. I guess it's how y' all move, but that's not how I move, yo. Come up in a time where I could talk about my cousin, we could clown on each other and everything like that, but you know where we found out that we was going and taking it too far. If we clowned on each other, if somebody, if we climbed on each other at school and somebody else heard us and, and chuckled or giggled. What if somebody, if somebody heard me and my cousin going at it and they chuckled or giggle, we looking at them like, what the you looking at, yo? What the what laughing at? So funny, huh? What, I'm funny to you, huh? You kidding me? So. And it would be a problem with that person, right? And I see the same thing with black America. We need to protect our own good, bad or indifferent. And not in the sense of protecting criminals or anything like that, but we need to take the. Protect the reputation of our own. And maybe not so far as protect, but we don't need to contribute to denigrating the reputation of our own at the hands of other white people, let's just say. Okay, we're not going to sugarcoat that. White people. All right? DJ Vlad, bring your white ass up to the, to the front of the congregation, please. Or to the, to the front of this conference room that we having this orientation in, brother. For some reason, my brother. Nah, fuck that. For some reason, bro, you fetishize. Black men love to see the downfall of black men. Or you would love to see them stay right below or underneath you or where you perceive yourself to be at as far as success. Again, we talking about DJ Vlad. DJ the blood. This for the past two months, three months, 12 years. Right. But no, like, it's like, it's been a concerted effort where I see titles in his headlines. He's got one black person on, and he's asking them their. Their opinion on another black person going through something. It'll say something like, D.L. hughley, thoughts on Dr. Umar? It. You know what I'm saying? It'll say whatever. Like, aries Spears calls Dr. Umar the Prince of Panhandling. Like, and y' all kiki. But cackling. Have you attempted to build anything? Watch your mouth. Matter of fact, watch your mouth. Oh, what the is wrong with yo? I don't. I' ma just speak truth to power. That's gonna be one of the other tenants here at mandatory overtime. We're gonna be speaking truth to power. And it's going to be a safe space for me to get a lot of this hate off that I got, you know, or disdain, let's say disdain. Because the. They not. They not that much in my mind to be. For me to hate. But so. So, Vlad, you definitely won that I had on the list. I had to check you about this, man. Dr. Umar, regardless of what he's going through right now, listen, y', all, I'm not going. I'm not going to down the brother. I'm not. And especially not down the brother in public in front of some. So other white people could pick up on that or any other races could pick up on that and say, like, look, look, if. If DJ High Star is. Is talking bad about him, that means I can. We're not doing that. We're not doing that. Get the. Yo. So Adam 22, or Adam 16, as. As you are called whenever, alluding to your pedophilic ways my way. You could come to the front of the conference room, too, bro. All right? You could come up to the front of the conference room, too. You putting both you and DJ Vlad on some performance improvement plans, some pips. And if you know anything about corporate America or the work world, your ass ain't getting off that pit, my boy. You heard? So anyways, Adam 22, hocus 4 fifth. So becoming Internet personality. Excuse me, former and reformed gangster and a former member of Sex Money Murder set of the Bloods up in Bronx. In the Bronx. Excuse me, New York, Castle Hill Projects. I want to say. But nevertheless, he went out after a lot of this stuff with Young Thug has been getting out into the, you know, just into the lexicon of things. Hocus 4 5th went and took a bold stance and said he was going to drop his flag. Also promoted to all of the young men out there to do the same. All right. And try to, to shift this narrative. Let's. Let's create a paradigm shift. Let's be that paradigm shift that we want to see happen. Right? So on a micro level with the things that he could control, that brother went ahead and did that. He put his message out to the world to get it amplified. And what do we have but Adam16's pedophilic, nasty atheist ass mocking, blatantly mocking hocus for fifth in a video talking about how he's going to drop his flag and how he's all of these different gangs, ice Lord and G.D. and BD and, and, and that he. Whatever. He's getting extorted and this and that. And he goes on to say further to say and post up, get into this back and forth with Hocus first and foremost. But then he goes on to say that he was talking about somebody else out there in LA and he thought that this, that this drop the flag thing was a trend already. He didn't realize that Hocus 4 5th had started it. And, and yeah, so he never took accountability. Zero accountability, of course. And you can't have accountability when you don't have a soul. But zero accountability and. Hold on, hold up. [00:34:00] Speaker B: I said he gonna get this work. [00:34:05] Speaker A: You can't have accountability when you don't got a soul. So then take accountability for it. Then on further to further that he had whack 100 kind of go online and kind of support him, if you will, or turn up. So both Adam 16 and whack because why bro and whack? Well, we're gonna do some case studies on you Wack because I don't complete. It's not completely whack, but I just don't. Ah, bro. Nah, bro. You need to come on home, brother. Anyways, so Adam, Adam, stay out of black people's business. I implore white people stay out of black people business. You know who's on the borderline of that, though, where it's a real gray area. It's a real gray area. And I'm gonna go ahead and put this out here, even though I'm just starting to journey up. I don't wanna. [00:35:06] Speaker B: He about to get this work. [00:35:08] Speaker A: All right. [00:35:08] Speaker B: He about to get this work. [00:35:10] Speaker A: I don't want to alienate any audiences and I don't want to divide anybody or anything like that and be divisive. But, but you know, where the gray area lies at. Hip hop commentary. [00:35:23] Speaker B: Hold up, hold up. [00:35:28] Speaker A: I have to say some names because these are people that, you know, I've consumed their content in the past. So Fantano, bro, you, you on the way out. You on the way out. Bro, you, you on that gray area. And your right foot is in the white. Okay. Your left foot is in the gray. You don't got no parts no more in the black. So Fantano, he's a YouTube creator and he, he claims to be like a hip hop. Hip hop ologist, if you will. So we not rocking with Fantano over here. You know, it was old footage that surfaced of Fantano talking crazy. Of course, it's always the same thing. Whenever it comes to these streamer archetypes, it's always, you know, it, it's always just nasty, lazy, low hanging racist rhetoric. Right? You. Oh, yeah, I want you from a tree. And it's just dumb. Like, so, yeah, Fantano, he's. He's damn near out of here. What's the dirt? Canadian dude, he started by. What's the dirt started. I, I started picking up his videos last year during the battle and he was breaking down each of the dis songs and stuff. It was, it was cool, it was cool, but it was just, just like, all right, was he going with this? And as time had went on, he, he showed himself to be kind of more of a Drake loyalist or, you know, leaning toward that side of things. And then it just got real cringy and weird with one of Drake's diss songs dropped. He reviews it and said. Counted how many times Drake said and highlighted it and tried to give some kind of esoteric meaning to that. Brother, please. Okay, Brother, please. You know that like, so he's another one. What's the dirt? We gotta highlight these. So it's like, it's like putting up on the wall in Walmart or in like your local grocery store when they put up pictures of people that then stole this. This is kind of what I'm doing. This is my wall of. Watch it. Watch these people, these suspects. So I will say this, though, Professor Psych, his content, I do take he. He breaks down lyrics and things like that. It breaks down reviews albums and reviews hip hop. And I respect Professor Psych. If y' all haven't tuned in or subscribe or caught any of his content, make sure that you catch it. He always prefaces the things that he says with, hey, I'm not a part of the culture, you know, and he makes that clear. So, Professor Psych, I appreciate you for that, but. Hurts me to say this, man, but. Jeremy Hecht, you in the gray area, buddy. All right? You just. You one old video resurfacing away from going right with Fantano and them boys is at. So, you know, the. There's just one. Watch it. Jeremy Hecht, he. He has a podcast called the Bigger Picture with Elliot Wilson and DJ Head out there in the west coast. And, you know, I. I appreciate his fervor and his passion for hip hop, and let's just, you know, we'll just keep it at that. I. I appreciate that about you, Jeremy. Okay, so this is not anything bashing you, but just letting you know you're in that gray area, my boy. Okay, My bite. But outside of that, yeah, like a lot of y'. All. I guess if I got into the weeds of the California content and media space, hip hop media, there'll be a lot more Latin X that I would have, you know, some kind of commentary on to. To kind of see where they going with stuff. Because right now, we protecting black culture, yo. All right. We're gonna protect black. Coach. I need, like, a Bomb drop or like the Undertaker joint that the stream is be using, but, yeah, so at all cost. I gotta. Niggas gotta speak truth to power, man. Stop talking about black people if you're not black. That is weird, yo. That is weird. Like, I don't see. I wouldn't see Kobe, God bless the dead, retiring and doing a bunch of interviews with the Celtics players, with former Celtics players. And. And it's just. Oh, man, I'm so enamored. I love the Boston Celtics. Like, I'm not trying to be divisive and say that it's white versus black, but just why y' all so enamored and fetishized black people so much. That shit is crazy. You want me to give you. And this look, this is one of the examples where I know how much white people fetishize or some of these white people fetishize black people and other cultures fetishize black people. You ever notice when you see a video online of a fight and it's not any black people around, it might be a white or a Spanish high school or something or whatever. It might be somewhere in Asia and got some Chinese people. It don't matter if the dominant language could be something totally different. But once people get to scrapping, for some reason, the person across for them from them becomes Nigga, yeah. Nah, nigga. What's up now? Yeah. Yeah. Like, that is crazy. That shit is disgusting. But y' all have, like, this sick infatuation and fetish for. For black people losing and for black people not whatever the antithesis is of us rising up. I have the fetish to see black struggle, black conflict, black pain, and this shit is weird and disgusting. All right? So I hope that this goes viral. [00:41:57] Speaker B: Let me work. [00:41:59] Speaker A: Please, let me work, because y' all is nasty, man. So who could comment on the culture? We can. And. And be. Be mindful of where you comment on the culture ad or who you sharing that stuff with, because y' all acting like the movie centers ain't real, man. [00:42:23] Speaker B: Hold up, hold up. He gonna get this work. [00:42:28] Speaker A: I said y' all acting like the movie sentence ain't real because there are people out there that's gonna. They might not be looking for. Be a bloodsucker or something. Pause. It was my only pause for today so far, but they definitely drain energy. So, yeah, y' all gotta. Yeah, man. Yeah. There's a deeper conversation to be had about this. Whenever it comes to the Canadian dude up there that's putting all of these people in lawsuits and stuff after he wanted to battle a hip hop guy, after cosplaying to be hip hop for 15 to 20 years and saying that he studies battles for a living. But that's a deeper conversation, and I'll definitely be. Be making some content on that. But. But, yeah, you know, I don't. I don't champion us going against one another or tearing each other down in the public. That looks disgusting. It looks nasty. All right, so let's tighten up with that. Oh, let's go ahead and move forward. What we got? What we got? I'll be saying move forward because that's who the episode is sponsored by. Move Forward Moving services. If you need something moved residentially or commercially, you can holla at it. Send me a dm, find me on Instagram, or get my number or something like that. And, yeah, Move Forward can help you out with all your services. All right, let's take a little break into this. We've got a couple things that I jotted down as notes. So I got some advice listed here. It's just random. I don't know where and when I was thinking about this, but it says, don't let your girl work third shift, so don't let. Do not Let your girl work third shift. Sounds very loaded, right? Is implying that you got that control over her and stuff. What I mean to say is if you working overtime. [00:44:45] Speaker B: Hold on, hold up, hold up. He gonna get this work. [00:44:48] Speaker A: If you work. If you work in a graveyard shift and. And you see woman, you know, I mean, working there, whatever like that and stuff like that. There's not. I don't know. There's not a good chance. There's not. I could see where I'm beginning in trouble at this with this podcast, but there's. They don't got no man. And if they got a man, they man need to be actively working to dissuade their lady from working at that. That third shift, as they call it, the graveyard shift. I just. Okay, I could. I could see where this podcast is going. Kind of get me in trouble. But nevertheless, I. I was at work the other day. I actually worked the graveyard shift, and I just made that observation and jotted it down. I just jotted it down. The other thing I jotted down though, was Mooc versus Hitman. Man, what a battle. Awesome battle. Shout out to Hitman Hollow for not choking on none of his bars. I guess. I'm an avid hip hop enthusiast, so all facets of it definitely, you know, are interest of mine. That being said, Murder, mooc, Hitman, Holla Bow veterans in this game. Both have seen the battle rap industry grow. They battled each other, man and MOOC 30 hitman. Now, just be honest. Let's get straight to it. Yo, I'm not gonna. I'm not like, yeah, he bodied him. So Mook was in there sounding like. [00:46:37] Speaker B: Lux and let me work, please. [00:46:43] Speaker A: I just want to play this one line from mooc's first round. This is the first round. This is like his opening scheme or whatnot. But let's play this real quick. Let me take a sec so I can set the table. I'm the A, you the B side. [00:46:58] Speaker B: Let's just put that on the record player you've been losing. [00:47:01] Speaker A: Hold on, hold on, hold on. Let's play that one more time. And my fault. I sped it up for copyright purposes and stuff. But hold on, let me take a sec so I can set the table. I'm the A, you the B side. [00:47:16] Speaker B: Let's just put that on the record player you've been losing. [00:47:20] Speaker A: So intricate. He said, let me take cassette, so I cassette the table. Let me take cassette, so I cassette the table. Cassette tape, of course, for the slow ones or. And again, we're championing your intellectualism. And you're getting better each day. But cassette. Let me take cassette. So I cassette. That's two tapes. Cassette the table. I'm the A, you the B side. Let's just put that on the record player. Let me take a sec. So I cassette the table. I'm the A, you the B side. [00:47:58] Speaker B: Let's just put that on the record player. You've been losing. [00:48:03] Speaker A: Hey. So that is what we. Throughout this journey with me, y', all, there's going to be certain times where we're going to highlight what I call high star bars. That was a high star bar right there. Layered. You could listen to it a couple times. Entendre's flips on, you know, play words. That was beautiful, man. But that. That Mooc versus Hitman Holla battle, I encourage all y' all to watch it. If you rock with battle rap and stuff, it was fire. It was fired as I applaud. Who was that? I think Arp. I want to say that. Put that on. But they released it right away, like, they released it. The battle happened this past weekend, and they released it by Sunday or something like that or Monday. So that was fire in itself. Because we've gotten to a point with the battle rap being a luxury item and okay, y' all could stream to support on this app or that app. It's kind of like similar to where the NFL is at right now with. With everything where, oh, you got to watch the game on this one or that and this and that. It's like, yo, I understand. We want to, you know, get some channels of our own. You know, smack is probably looking at a lot of the money that YouTube was scooping up or Google was scooping up from them. But let's just, you know, be real. The fans is what built up that industry. So can't starve the fans or. Or box them out, you know, gotta make the valuable man. Gotta make it. Make it worth it. So shout out to or brotherly love that I'm sending to your man. Murder Moot. Hitman Holla as well, being, you know, hit me. Let me say this, too. Hitman Holla did bring out, like, paperwork, a paper. Had a paper through a paperwork party or attempted to throw a paperwork party for one. Jonathan Ankrum. Mook disputes that his name is John Ancrum. And again, this is mandatory overtime, so we're not going or sugarcoat stuff. The allegations that Hitman Holla brought up was with regards to how Moot got kicked out of college back in the day, which was related to Some sexual assault or related to some. And then domestic violence stuff against his lady and some charges against his child for domestic abuse, you know, against his child. Low brow, ugly. Yes, but it's battle rap. You know, Arsenal, he does a lot of similar things, and. And. And, you know, I'm not going to say that he's champion for it, but his reputation is that, you know, so we. We know what we're getting into. The brothers still shook hands at the end of the battle. I heard some rumblings that Mook's wife wasn't the happiest at the end of the battle about the things that were being said in the third round. But again, Mook, you had a great battle and a great performance, brother. There's still space to hold you accountable, of course, for any transgressions if you did have any. I only say if you did have any is because you avoided that conversation fully. And I don't blame you for doing so if you don't have anything to do with it. But, you know, people got skeletons, so if that. If that's true and you got that skeleton lurking, my brother, you know, praying for your growth and for your advancement, man, it's never cool or safe, you know, to. To have to have skeletons and stuff like that in your closet or whatnot. That's why I. I aim to be as vulnerable as possible and transparent with y'. All. But also, it kind of goes into my no idolatry as far as one of the tenants and one of the main rules in here, me not. We not putting nobody above being a human being. All right, some people up, but that doesn't mean that. That they are so that. Yeah, there's no idolatry in here. Not nobody's above reproach or above, you know, saying something about them. And moment of transparency, a moment of vulnerability. Real quick. Can I do that real quick? [00:52:59] Speaker B: Y' all get that water? He about to get this work. He about to get this work. [00:53:06] Speaker A: I was wearing a Biggie Smalls shirt, and I randomly looked at myself in the mirror, asked myself, what are you representing right now, Jerome. It's my real name, by the way, DJ High Star. But I'm asking myself, what are you representing? What are you wearing? Right? It's a great, great rapper. One of the greatest rappers ever. That's what I'm answering myself. One of the greatest rappers of all time. But then I had to think about it, too. It's like, outside of the music itself, you didn't know that, brother, for all intents and purposes, if he was telling the truth in his music, don't you know me and my gutter kidnapped kids over the bridge don't like you. If you was listening to this brother and believed him for his authenticity and for him being real, you would not align with a lot of the stuff that he's saying. Even if he put it in fly rhyme patterns and use great lyrical literary devices to do so, you wouldn't be rocking with this brother's lifestyle, cheating on his women, being a womanizer, if you will, you know? And I do. I gotta say, allegedly, with all of this, I don't. I'm not sure how this gonna go for me, because I don't know if it's gonna be one week or two weeks. Like, can I tell the truth, y'? All? [00:54:31] Speaker B: Oh, look, hold up. He gonna get this work. [00:54:37] Speaker A: We seen in the movie and heard all accounts of Biggie being a ladies man and a woman man. Cam said when he first went to spit for Big, Big had two women in the bed with him and stuff like that, while he, you know, so. And it's not anything to disparage this brother's legacy and his reputation because he's not here to defend himself. And he's still one of my favorite artists, one of my favorite hip hop, you know, people or whatnot. Spread love is the Brooklyn way. The Moet and Alize keep me, but it's still got a whole dog accountable. I can't be wearing you on my. On a T shirt. And, you know, I'm again you. Yeah, I just. I hope that makes sense to somebody out there. I hope that does. So my, my, My original point is nobody's above reproach, bruh. That's all. So I don't want this to turn into a whole thing about Biggie or me, like, saying anything bad about Biggie, but all I'm saying is, like, you got to watch who, like, like, it kind of goes back to what I said earlier. Your physical appearance tells a story about you. So I got to be responsible with what I. What I put inside of my body. Pause. And what I put on my body as far as what I'm wearing and stuff out there and out there in public. So, yeah, I don't. I don't know, man. That's. That's. That's what I got for this week. It looks like I'm at about 57 minutes. I want to say this is a great pilot episode. I know it's a lot of stuff that I'm gonna have to listen back to and kind of correct or whatnot. But before we do go, I do want to get. I do want to do our segment of Brotherly Love. Gotta figure out a nice audio for that. When we do do the brotherly love, I gotta figure going to do for that. Oh, right now. But shout out. Huge shout out to and huge shout out and want to send brotherly love to my main man. Be easy out there in the Florence area. Florence and Darlington.

Damn, I'm trying to remember boy name, but you're like, it don't take nothing to show some love. It don't take nothing to show a some love. I'm saying. But listen, if you made it all the way through to this part of the podcast, I appreciate you. It's wasn't my goal necessarily to be entertaining today.
