It Ain't Safe Out Here, Also That's Not What Leak Means

they get punched in the face. That what he's trying to say is among a lot of things, which is like being punched in the faces is terrifying but and painful. But he's saying is that anyone can get it. No one is above being punched. Nobody is safe, nobody's invincible. Now, what you do is you try to put enough people around you, put enough situations around you, put enough like fools, you put the try to put the fear of God in people to make sure that they don't even try,

don't even question. But the truth is, whoever's up could go down. No one is invincible. They may be there. It's just a matter of time. You learn this growing up out here, like oh no, we're good. I'm good over there, Like we talked about that, like being good over there. When stuff get on site, you don't know what listen you not. You can have shooters all over the city, you got homies, you got ears everywhere. You know what I'm saying. You may be riding cool. You

may think that you got listened. Everybody outside knows that at any moment. That's why foods talk about carry and they straps with him, because you could no one, No one is safe. There is always a possibility. Nothing is a short nothing's a short thing nothing. So you stay ready, right, You heard the saying you stay ready. You ain't gotta get ready. You stay ready any time, any place. Because when you start believing that you are untouchable, right, you

start believing you can't get touched. You start believing these things are now will always be this. It's almost like it's that's the beginning of the end. You're sitting at the Golden Knox with your homies after you didn't hit the dopest leg. Everything cool. You You can't control who walks in nor can you possibly know everybody that's connect You can do your best, but you can't possibly know everybody is connected to everybody. You can't. You can't keep up.

You might have been at a party. You we hit on something girl and she shot you down. No big deal, you shot your side. It was nothing, and nobody said nothing to you didn't. But somebody saw that happen. If somebody went hey, immediately called to homie, Hey, I've seen that nigga that was hitting on your girl at the party. You have to look. Yeah here right now, he out here, right now, I'll know open yo, pull up. It's something you don't even know you did. They are already on

their way. You just enjoying your fries. They already on their way. You just never know. Listen, there's something that you've heard me talk about before, which was my safety net, which is I keep my mouth shut and I don't ask questions. What do I mean by that? If I don't know what's going on, I can't snitch. So when somebody asked me, how you seen? How you know what they're doing? Look, I don't know, and it's true, I don't know. I'm look, I'm just affiliated I'm not I'm

not active. I'm a civilian. I don't know, and I don't want to know. I need to know specifically what I need to know for me to live my life in peace and throw hands when I need to. But I don't know. Neighborhoods flipped, you know, just because they was like this that one day. There's all these other forces that are at late gentrification, immigration, as, all these forces that play that you think stuff is set in stone, They're not set in stone, explained Brooklyn Williamsburg. Like explain it.

Things change, they aren't always what they were, And if you're not careful, if you're not paying attention, you may forget that. You have to share up your future at all times. You have to be prepared with exit strategies. You gotta be prepared for any sort of situation because you never know it could pop off at any moment. That's one of the lessons I have, remember I said before, another great lesson I know, one of the greatest lessons.

One of the greatest tools you can know growing up where we are as when it's time to slide, when it is you need to be able to read the room and figure out oh yeah, No, it's probably trying to go something going to go down. Listen, nothing is safe. I stressed this point for a number of reasons, and it's really the same disease in multiple, multiple ways. Let's look at the Supreme Court in this roeg wad thing. Can give you an example in music, Shuge Knight, Death

Row Records. There was a time when this empire, like the music was dre Snoop Pack, Death Row. You would think it was going to be forever. They were just cranking out Lady of Rage that isn't corrupt, like the world was just cranking out hit after hit after star after star. They even had backup stars just in case the main stars didn't work. Even the backup stars got hits. And I don't say that as a disk. I'm saying it as numbers because I could sing Dove Shock to

you right now, all ride with her, a slide with her. No, you know you finished it for me, all of those with me, You finished it for me. You already know you finished it for me. That was a hit. It was all out of this machine. You think it's untouched, and and and and the legendary stories about sugar Listen, I cannot confirm or deny the stories of his gangsterism. But I'll tell you what. There was a time in this scene where we listen, hain't nothing get by Shug

nothing And if he had you, he had you. That was it. That's the look. That's what we thought. In music, you don't take on Ditty, you don't take on Puff, Daddy and bad Boy unless you think you were untouchable. Little did we know Dre was gonna leave and start after math. Little did we know Tupac was gonna die. Little did we know Shoog was gonna finally go to jail and like we like I told you and Snoop on death Row, Now ain't that crazy? Like the name, like,

let me tell you something. They seemed untouchable. It was it was an impossible machine to break, yo, seriously, bad boy the saying Puff was cranking out artist like it just you're like, it's never gonna you's never gonna end. It always ends. Shine Shine went to prison over a shooting in the club when Buff was still dating j Lo, and then Biggie died. Listen, listen, nobody's safe. Anything can happen.

And if you're not ready, if you're not prepared. If you're not aware of that, you're gonna get caught the way the Supreme Court just got caught. Now check this out. This is the first league ever in the Supreme Court now as of today, which is May three, and I'm pretty sure they ain't gonna come out for another two weeks. Who knows if this league was debunked or anything like that.

I just want to get this thought off and as the situations changed by the time we get here, just just remember I did this in the past, Okay, but I just want to get this point off for you. You're ready for me to explain this point to you even better? Here we go, Let's take this break. Who yea? So there's never been a leak in the Supreme Court. That's crazy. Nothing has ever come out in the Supreme Court. Nothing,

nothing before they ready. That's has for the whole time been the most airtight, cards kept close, no one knew like the most sacred. Nobody has ever snitched, no one, No one has ever snitched. If there's one thing that the Supreme Court and politicians have always understood though, is that again, it's nobody's ever safe. Like you're it became weapon. I I did a story on this a while back, or I did an episode on this a wild back

y'all could look. Oh, and on the Supreme Court once all the smoke is that Supreme Court got weaponized around Marlbury versus Madison, like that, that's how long ago, right, What do I say? What do I mean by weaponized? It's by trying to have a majority that leans towards

your side of the political divide. Right, This is why a two party system, at least in America, it it goes so deep, like it's so far into the soil of who we are that to try to have an actual viable third or fourth party, it's just it's it's too the tree is too old, the roots are too deep,

and it it's the two party system. It's just invaded too much of our government in our culture that it's like you'd have to tear the whole house down to be able to do it, know what I'm saying, Like it's it's it's it's like that that being said, it's not impossible. But why we're stuck in this like buying area is because it goes back to the Louisiana purchase. Joe saying like that's how far it go back. But anyway, so the Supreme Court is weaponized, and you understand it's weaponized.

And in our modern era, if you look at when I mean all the way back to like George Bush and your your your favorite Senate turtle, Mitch McConnell, I'm I'm I'm sorry, y'all, that man looks like a turtle. And I'm so stupid to say, but he just looked like a turtle to me. I don't, I don't man, I'm sorry, man, I'm sorry, he looked like a turtle. Anyway, about electing judges, that electing judges is this is your legacy because you understand that your laws can get turned over,

you know what I'm saying. And your elected officials look, they look a state flips. You would have never thought that, like what Stacy Abrams did down there in Georgia, you would have never guessed, right that they would, I mean even be a shade of purple. That changes. But when you get somebody on, when you get somebody on the bench, when you get when you get when you get some some some quarter pointees, Oh, that's legacy, homie. So you

so you you you you establish a legacy. That's gonna obviously, that's what legacy means. It's gonna outlast your life, right, And you can always go back to the point to be like, listen, I changed America and in your mind for the good because I got these people at in the courts. That's gonna make sure the laws that we're putting in place are gonna be enforced and they're gonna stay that once we up, even when I'm down, we up. That's what you're doing. It's legacy. They were saying in

the early eighties, crips don't die, they just multiply. It was Coless's from the movie called Colors Anyway, Ice iced tea song we don't die, We multiplied. So what you're trying to say is that, like you just, it's going to outlast me. It's bigger than us. And what we do is gonna last longer for generations. Right. I'm gonna die off, we know that. But what we did, what we set in stone, it's set in stone. Right, That's that's the hope with getting people into in the courts.

The Supreme Court specifically is the conservative liberal majority minority right, and they flip flop based on one more who dies and number two who you can get appointed? Right, So as far as like the leanings of the Supreme Court, everybody know, nobody's safe. Right. That's why it's always a mad scramble to get somebody into the courts because you know that's again that's gonna outlast you, right, and it's

gonna make your constituent's happy. Y'ah with me. That was the work that miss McConnell and Donald Trump did, and the and the and in buying large the Republican Party over the last four years, they flipped the courts that two hundred judges got appointed. Y'all don't know that? Or do you know that two hundre judges got appointed? Now? And don't just look at the Preme Court. You've got all kind of courts. How when the hell is uh

Texas and Florida pulling off what they're pulling off? Full judges? How the mass mandate change full judges. You gotta get somebody, You gotta get a guy, you gotta get a girl, you gotta get somebody in. That's what they did. They got somebody in place, is it? Paola nine ain't gonna go that far? I don't know, but as what you do, hear somebody in place, So you know, in that sense, nobody is safe, nothing is permanent. Anyone can get it

at any day. They know that. So how you prepare for that is you make sure you got judges in hand that you could put them in place. Secondly, what we were fooled into believing and what these people understand is that don't ever get comfortable with a law. Y'all thought Roe v. Wade like they did not forget when you take a like I'm saying this from a conservative, when you take an L like that, like a life changing L. Here's what was never gonna happen. We're not

gonna resegregate our schools. That ain't gonna happen unless we choose to do it. Jim Crow ain't coming back unless we choose to do it, like on our own volition. But that ain't gonna ever get back and law again. You let that ship is sailed. We ain't gonna probably ain't gonna outlaw same sex marriage. That's like ships saying, oh, that's not the fight. But this abortion thing, we could probably get this if we get enough judges in there.

This is a hot enough point. That if we get enough judges in this one, we could probably we could probably do something about this. And and what's crazy is, uh, they told us from day one that was the plan. We're trying to get this thing overturned. They've been saying that for years. We're trying to get this thing over turn. So that's not This shouldn't have been a surprise to nobody because anyone can get it. Nothing safe. Now. No, I just made this point about uh, same sex marriage

and desegregation, that that that the ship is sailed. Uh. I'm playing the numbers here because I still also believe, oh yeah, it could still happen because nothing safe. That was the game. The game the whole time was to come to this now check this out. Another calculation Foods was probably missing was that y'all thought this stuff would never leak because it never has. Oh, you have nothing safe, You things can leak to Maybe wait, let me step back a second. Do y'all know what I'm talking about?

I feel like it's three weeks later, so y'all should know what I'm talking about. That there's a draft statement about this idea that the Supreme Court is gonna vote to overturn Roe v. Wade. Roe v. Wade is the abortion law UM that says that we as Americans, women have the constitutional right if they want an abortion to go get one, right. And if you've been following, like, uh, this year, different states have been like really restricting what that means, you know, and um and how they're like

willing to enforce the thing. Now, if you notice in this pod, I'm not getting into the nuts and bolts of abortion and reproductive rights themselves, because listen, first of all, I don't have a uterus, So I just kind of feel like maybe I should sit this one out. I'm just, you know, saying, that's that. Look, I ain't got a uterus, so even whatever I think it don't even matter anyway, I ain't got a uterus, you feel me. So I'm not even getting into that, you know what I'm saying, Uh,

that's not what this is here pot about, y'all. Y'all where y'all staying on that, that's where y'all staying. Don't let me touch that, you feel me? I'm I'm not equipped to dive into that topic. What is human? When is a human viable? Like, listen, I ain't here for that I'm here to talk about the politics of it all what I'm said, So don't don't come at me now. I don't want to smoke. I ain't got a uterus anyway, now, I know me even saying that, some fools will be like, oh,

that's that's that's a cop out. You're you're avoiding, you're avoiding the thing. And I'm like, you, damn right, that's a cop out because like nigga, I'm confused, cause like because especially about about stuff that, like I said, like,

it ain't gonna really you can't. I can't. I can't talk about this topic with out talking about patriarchy and the history of that that it just it just muddied the water so much because I agree, I'm like, well, damn, I mean, like I think it's a baby, Like I mean, I don't know what the like, I don't know what the science got to do with it, and if it's the rights of like man, it's like in the same way, in the same way that like, there are certain things

that if you want to talk about as black issues, I'm like, you have to address racism, Like there's another way. Listen Martin Luther King talking about the what we're talking about the Watts riots. He's like, I can't. I can't condone this without talking about police violence. Like they go handed, like I can't talk about the hundreds of years of racism. You know what I'm saying For me to just be like, oh, don't burn the buildings, it's complicated, Like I can't. I

can't do both, you know what I'm saying. That's where I'm at here where I'm like, I I'm a dude man, like my my lens is tainted. I let you'all hast that out. I'm in a happy marriage. You feel me? So like my situation is like, well, no, that wouldn't be our option. I'm in a happy marriage, you know. And look, I can't say the same for my wife because that's her uterus. You feel me. The point I'm trying to say is I don't want to talk about I didn't want to talk about it anyway. Let me

get back on topic. Lastly, I'd like to address the term leak. Okay, now follow me here. Rappers do this all the time. They say things like, oh, I'm like me as an artist talking to other artists, UM, probably gonna leak the single that's not leaking. You're just putting it out and you're gonna say leak because it stirs up a little hype, like, oh man, we weren't supposed to get it, so it got leaked. Okay, that's not so people use leaking as a strategy like they do that.

They do the muse all the time. There are versions where you couldn't get the sample cleared so you can't legally put it out, but you leak it or it's gotten leaked where it's like, oh, oh are bad. I don't man, somebody who was at the student Man, I don't know how I got out the studio, bro, Like somebody must put on their hard drive put it out. You know it's the And it's like, look, that's not it's not on any of my channels, you know what I'm saying. But it's but it's totally on your chance

on a dummy account, you know what I'm saying. But like Rapper has been doing this for years. They've been leaking versions of songs, huge humongous air quotes. Other times, leaks happen when you're trying to expose somebody, y'all remember the Meek Mill Drake thing. I got the reference tracks right.

He was trying to expose Drake that he had a ghostwriter and um yeah with the you know party next door and you know in his whole like ov old team, Like he was trying to expose that, like yeah, school's got a ghostwriter, Like he's not even writing these raps and y'all call them the greatest rapper alive. Uh, which, as a side note, is because you know, everybody built different. And I come from the age where you can't get on the goat list if someone else is writing your

lyrics at any point. You could be a great songwriter, you could be the greatest entertainer, but the greatest rapper will will know you didn't. You didn't write the raps, so it's like it just doesn't count. You know, writing hooks are different. You know, collaborations are different. That's different. You know what I'm saying, or somebody like throwing a word from the from the room, you know, like hey, take that word out real quick, like okay, that's to

make the flow fit. That's a little different. But like you're just letting another person's bars come out of your mouth for sixteen of them or four of them, whatever. The case may be fools is like, na I am, I can't. You can't. You've taken yourself off the list. So Meek was counting on the fact that like people actually cared that that was that. So the point was to like to try to take out Drake right, just

to weaponize it. You know the emails, you know what I'm saying, Like this is like the the Wiki leak emails. You know what I'm saying, the three thousand of the server. You feel me it's like you're trying to take somebody out. But you could be like, oh, dude, it was an accident. Man, dang, I can't believe it leak. It's not leaking. You put it out now again, this is my three I have thoughts. I'm hoping. I'm hoping just so I can vindicate myself that this leak wasn't a leak. It was a poison pill.

It was in case of emergency, Brake Glass that there was probably somebody in there that was like, this is way too important. I'd like, I need to let this, we need to notice to rally everybody. I'm curious now I can't confirm or deanny, but I have a seeking suspicion that this leak is quite an air quote of a leak, because no matter how air tight, no matter how tight your hood is, no matter how down everybody is, listen, at any given moment, you could cross that line and

realize that nothing is sacred and no one is safe. Now. So the why in the scenario I'm setting up is why leak? It is because you're trying to stop what I'm saying is trying to stop it from happening. But I think that there's something else going on here that again should be very obvious to you. This is an election year, this is mid term time. And let me

present this first as a Democrat. It's like as a democrat if you're trying to run, if you're trying to run for office, if your seat is in question right now, this is your chance. Okay, you have just been given somebody threw you a alley you and you need if you can't dunk this ball, I need you to think

about this. If you, if you, if if you are a left leading politician and somebody Finnis say, on your watch you lost Roe v Wade, Nika, you like on your watch you want to be You want to be the class of folks that lot that took that big of a hell. You better get to work, cause now if you're a Republican, if you are right leaning politician, same thing you just got to alley you Listen, listen, yo O G just put the gun in your hand and was like, all you got to do is pull

the trigger. Listen, Listen, listen, listen, listen. You want to use a sports reference it the quarterback just handed you the running back the ball and them linebackers cleared like you can see the end zone. It looked like it looks you know what this football field. You look like you in some sort of a like like wedding reception tunnel. It's so clear everybody want to want you to run right through. If you can't score this touchdown, you got

everything for you, Niki, even the court is down. If you can't score this at you actually have to think about this in the same way that if you left leaning, you like, damn if we lose this, Like I don't want it on my report card that I lost Roe v. Wade. On the other side of that fence, You're like, I cannot wait to put it on my report card that I got back Roe v Wade Famo, Cause let me tell you what everybody's gonna be talking about in their campaigns.

You're gonna hear a lot of my side, Like they say, a lot of talking my side. It's gonna be a lot of ship talking about this mug because I tell you what, bro, these are alley youps. This one thing is an alley you to two different teams just as look, you're gonna done the ball and not because right now, nig if you, if you again, if you're a Democrat, nigga, if you fucked this up, you like we're coming behind. Listen, let's let's put away the Trump called thing for a second.

Let's put away our politics, like, let's put away our our political silos for a second, and let's just be reasonable that the Trump administration was a disaster, Like you're coming off a disaster like that, like the bare minimum.

You couldn't even do the bare minimum. You ain't got us You maybe got us our student laws maybe right, maybe yeah, Like you ain't got us our new deal, you ain't got us our infantry, like like you can at least hold on the rov Way because now, if you, if you're a Republican you like, look, I know none of us want to say the quiet thing out loud, which is we stole the capital. We've stormed the Capitol, and we're lying about this still stole election. Like nobody

wanna say that out y'all know that. I'm gonna let let let there are people that still say they believe that. But like Nigga, you know you you you know that's not true. Well I hope you know that's not true. But right now, bro, if you're like, I don't know any Republicans, I don't know, not in my lifetime has had an opportunity like this to shine. Because see how y'all handle it? Because nobody's safe. Anything could get it at any time. This might be your moment. That's all

I'm saying. And again it's May third. I don't know what happened by the time it's come out. But uh, if in the future I'm dead, wrong, I apologize. I can't see the future. If I'm dead, right, then the hood knows good politics, y'all. Who Yeah, this is here. Thing was recorded by me Propaganda and East Lows, boil Heights, Los Angeles, California. This mug was mixed edited, mastered, and scored by Matt Osowski. I can totally say his name, guys,

it was it was a stick. He's going by Matt now again because he got into some legal situations with the name Headlights. You know, common used to be called common sense. You know, Tip t I was tipped Sometimes it happens. Executive produced by the one and only Sophie Lectman for a Cool Zone Media and the theme music by the one and only Gold Tips Gold Tips d J Shawn p So. Y'all just remember listen every time you check in. If you understand city living, you understand politics.

We'll see how next week. M. M.
