Six Feet from Poverty (with Petey DeAbreu)

the culture. The culture ain't payby for ship. I'm starving out here. The culture definitely my crown ships in your man's racists money stuff. I can't tell me. Oh there is ladies and gentlemen there it is. Everybody. Welcome to another exceptional episode of My Mama told me in the podcast where we Died Deep, we should be lunk into the world of black conspiracy theories and we work to

prove that Tia and Tamara are not identical twins. We all know which one is objectively cuter than the other, and the answer is Taj Taj Maori is the cutest of those three. It's honey, it's not even a debate. He's gorgeous. Sure, he's in his thirties and he didn't get any bigger than he used to be as a child. But that boy is cute. He's a cute pie. And it needs to be heard, it needs to be said, it needs to be announced. I'm coming in hot today, baby,

I'm feeling good. I'm taking down the Maori Twins for some reason. I don't know what my agenda is. I'm your host, Legs and Kerman is always I'm excited to be here. I'm having a phenomenal day. There's apparently a new white woman out here pretending to be a black and I'm excited about it. Her name is Jessica Crue and she's Rachel dolas On. And we needed this. I think we needed to re up on Rachel. Rachel had sort of fallen to the wayside, and we forgot that

Rachel was a problem. But here comes Jessica Crue, who worked her way up to become a professor in African American studies somewhere in Kansas. Good for her and good for us. We got something to be mad about, and I love it. You know who's never mad is my guest today, I can say that with almost certainty. He's never mad. He's one of the most positive, uplifting humans that I've ever had the pleasure of interacting with. On

top of that, he's funny as ship goddamn hysterical. You know him from Comedy Central, you know him from Amazon. You know him as the Bronx whisper, the man that lets you know what the funk is happening in the b X. He's still alive, and he wanted me to, let you know, give it up for my guests. Mr Pete the eyebrow, Yo, yo, share your shout out to all of everybody in attendance. Hell yeah, they're ready, they're excited, you're here. Thanks for having me. You know what I'm saying.

It's real professional. I like to be involved with professional things. That's right. How you living man? Doing good? Brother? You know I'm shout here, surviving man. Try and avoid these droplets, you know. Now I gotta go into a whole another bag. Now, I gotta go performing somebody's driveway. Otherwise I don't know what I'm gonna do. I was in the public pod yesterday performing by like a public pool. The pool was closed, but it was like seven people in the audience. It

was like twenty people like far right doing yoga. It was like, you know, I mean twenty more people on the other side doing yoga. And I'm talking about like, yo, man, I'm just happy to be here. I'm talking about homeless dude asking me for money on the train with no maskball and I'm like, nigga, I ain't gonna pay you for the rona. But you know what's right, listen, listen. If you're gonna give it to me, give it to me for free. I'm not about to tip the biggest

that's the biggest sucker move. You give your paying for some ship that's free. Right. Come on, brother, let me let me get a dollar so I could give you a disease that's gonna ruin your life. I wasn't gonna go outside until they started killing when they started killing black people. When they was like they kept killing us, I was like, fucking man, the cops gonna kill me. The guy will given about drop right, you take me. I was I didn't kid. I was sad. I was like I can't do it. I can't do what I

got it. That's the thing is like, once you get people out in the streets and rage. They're not gonna like go back in you know what I mean. We ain't about to yell about stop murdering us and then follow your your procedures. It's like I can't tell you a conspiracy real quick that I had just after jo it. So you know the six feet ship, right, Dr Fucci was like six ft right, so pete, so pete. So I'm like, your who measures the six ft? You feel me?

Because it's like the droplets to spit when you talk, when you sneeze, they measuring six feet from like when you talk, right, but like you know that's from the white man's lips though, sure, so the white man, I'm gonna stop you right there. That's how they get you. I'm listening, go ahead, right, so the white man like six ft boom, but you know our lips is different. You feel me, Like we say things, so I spit goes further, you feel me. So that's how they're trying

to have the numbers crazy in the hood. And because we used world we say bitch hass like bit goes further, like where you say bitch hass, that's further. The six feet bro Like now you're saying something I'm fascinated by. This is a devastating revelation that I had not considered.

You're saying that the way that we speak and the way that black people's mouths are shaped, in fact, makes it so that our spit flies further than six feet, and this six feet is merely a protection for the white lip, the white mouth in its spread, and the white community. Wow, listen, if true, that is devastating information. The numbers spiked in all of the in the hoods, Like, it's like, how does she at least spiking in the hoods A bunch of dudes. They were still roasting, but

from six ft and they still six feet. But in fact, he wasn't lucky at all. This motherfucker needed to be eight feet because of them big gass roasting and lips yos. That's going across the street properly is going a block away. Damn, this is big. I gotta write a governor. Or. I don't I don't know that I can trust him, but I gotta write somebody that's gonna be able to solve

this for me. I want to all trusting Fucci, and now Fucci where he had come even on the check it though, boy, like a quick check in on Facebook? What was that that app where you used to tell people your location for no reason at all? Four square? You don't even four squares to be like Dr fauci Is or fucci is that. I love that you got him on It's wild, but I fucking love that conspiracy. But you brought to me a conspiracy that we have

to jump into it. I don't want to lose any time on this, but you brought to me a conspiracy that I think is equally fascinating and complicated and a lot more philosophical, I think than any of the other conspiracy theories that we've had on this show. You said, and I want to get this right. My mama told

me potty and hard times make everything better. M tell me more struggle, man, you know, not not the struggle when they say the struggle is real, because those people struggling really talking about you know what I'm saying ruggle, Like you know how they say hand me down clothes? What about hand me down struggle? Saying generation? But it's like, you know, the good stuff come out of the struggle as far as like you get crazy results from hardships. You know what I'm saying, like food type of ship,

Like I don't even like fried chicken. If the person who made it never struggle, you feel me, it don't taste. There's that restaurant in Brooklyn that everybody who is a gentrifier tells you, Pies and Thighs, where they're like, oh, you gotta go to Pies and Thighs because that's the best fried chicken in all of Brooklyn, And it's like, no, listen, I'm sure it's fine fried chicken. I'm sure they did

their best given their circumstances. But the reality is these are a bunch of trust fund kids who figured out how to fried chicken. But here's the thing, right, I thought about this earlier too. You can duplicate the results of what comes out of the struggle. You can't duplicate the struggle, you know what I'm saying. You could duplicate the results like they can find some fried chicken and send it to ancestry dot com and I'm saying, get all the fucking ingredients back the batter, you know what

I'm saying. And now they stole a whole box. They don't know what it's like to conjure it up from pain. You want to, like, imagine you making chicken, but like, not only are you making chicken, you're trying to mean something. Yeah. Well that's the thing is like you can figure out all the things, but part of what made the chicken good was that the grease popped and they landed on somebody's skin and it burned a little bit, and that skin particle got into the chicken and made it gave

it personality. But you can't do that and it has matched suit, you know what I mean? Like y'all are showing up and treating this like science, when in fact it's a lived experience. You know when the fry that chicken and they used their fucking fingers in the oil, Bros. Yeah, you know when they put those fingers in the oil because those fingers been through so much. Yeah, I think it's don't even got feel And for the nerve ending snowboard turned around, flipping up. I want to taste the

lady named Roberta's fingers in my chicken. And if Roberta's fingers ain't in there, it ain't good chicken. Yo. All right. There's a spot in Brooklyn called Brooklyn soul full Kitchen m been in since like the seventies, not asked, but it's in the middle of Flatbush. You know what I say, you gotta go. I'm saying you gotta go with They're not really gentrifying that the best fried chicken. And to your point, that also is an earned experience. It's an

experience that we might say comes with a struggle. You gotta get off that train and you gotta make a walk through a neighborhood that you may or may not be comfortable in to get to that chicken. You gotta be able to order that food, sit down in that place, and then get yourself back. That's chicken you've earned. That's

chicken that comes with a story. It's not just something that can be mass produced for a bunch of white kids in a New Brooklyn or just because it's like Sweet Chick, where it's like, you know, it's fried chicken, but they got nineties hip hop plan. So you feel like you've been through some ship, like you ain't been through nothing because you're paying twenty dollars for a time man funk out of here, Man Bell the vote didn't give you the experience. This is how I know. This

is how I know if your chicken is legit. If people look at me like an alien, if I try to haggle the price of the chicken, I don't want the chicken there in the first place. If there's somebody is line, it's like, yeah, that's like that ship is good. It's good, right because they know that they probably were going to give you some shitty thime, mate, and uh

it is what it is. Yeah, all right, we'll negotiation. Struggle, struggle, want to sweat, That's what I would thinking, like you said that the skin, but like also sweat from the struggle and the pain in the years of suffering. That when they in that kitchen and mom and them making that chicken in and that little bit of that be the sweat drips off from the eyebrow that because it slowed down the forehead today eyebrow drips in the batter. Now you got a whole another season and right there

that you, Mrs Dash, don't got that. That's a new sult that they ain't hitting yet, And that's paying equity salt. I love that though. That's that's a delicious sult. It's a tragically earned sult. But to taste great. Okay, let me ask you, this is this a theory that you feel like you discovered on your own? Was it handed down to you? Where do you think this came from. This's just come from paying attention. I'm saying, it's comes from just looking around, like Okay, this is where I'm from.

This is what it is. This is like the facts, all the proof is there, Like I can go back, like even like what the fool with sports, with fashion, with music, with everything? You know what I'm saying, Like, it's just the struggle is at the epicenter of the ship. Look at hip hop, look at music. I'm from the Bronx. Came from the Bronx. They wasn't trying to make no money out that ship. It was just like like something. So they didn't knock each other's head off, no more right.

It was some dudes who were otherwise boared on a corner then deciding like I well, we either fight about some ship and sort of like air our feelings out in a completely unhealthier way, or we just spit, we beat box, we do whatever, and like let that be the way that it's almost too like, um, you know what the hood due to we remix ship. So like remember in the seventies, I believe in the Bronx, it was like a lot of gangs and ship, so it was going crazy and then it was like they broke

the gang violence up. So then the gang members started going into like you know, getting in the hip hop ship, Like gang members start doing graffiti, just wrapping and stuff like that. You know what I'm saying. But that ship came out of just nothing to fucking do, yeah, and not having nothing. So like if you could come out and you could rhyme, or you could paint, or you could dance or you could DJ, it like superseded what

you was going through. So that's why I think, like to like with the struggle, how it powers things, It's just like you trying to supersede whatever the struggle is with what you can do. It's like, yo, I might be fucked up, but here's this chicken. Though you can't even you can't even buy that type of ship, you feel me right, So if I can somehow make something that is in fact better than my sad feelings, my sad feelings don't feel like sad feelings the same way

they were before. Not because it's like living in the present. Almost like yo, if you can make something good in the present right now, that ship is almost like not reality, although it is, but for right now, you know the pride of of wrapping or doing whatever it was. You know, that ship came from you know, broken glass everywhere, man, You know people passing on the stairs like they just don't kid you know what I'm saying that I think

about that ship. You're broken glass everywhere, like they was just breaking bottles everywhere. Well, that's the thing is like so much of hip hop, I think now has been turned into a type of storytelling that isn't always rooted in the truth, you know what I mean, Like it's like a game of telephone, right that. Like when they were first rapping about those experiences, it literally was that

experience because they were just doing it right. It was just that they lived experience that they wanted to share with the world. Whereas now it's like, Okay, well We've had generations of people talking about their lived experiences, so now I got to make some ship up based off of this old story that I've been hearing for generations. But the root of it, though, is still struggled all

because it's evolved. Obviously, it's always gonna evolve. It's gonna evolved, but where it came from, it's just a bunch of dudes, you know that. And then it's like we mimic and remix. So I feel like it's almost like the what's that the West Side story, but with black people and Puerto Ricans in the Bronx where it's like niggas ain't talking about when you would Jake to the end is talking about to the hips, the hop, the hip. But it's

the same fucking ship. We just add more source tie ship, I ship or the hood makes ship, fire bro everything, everything you can think about, the struggle, poverty, make that ship because we got no we want to be seen, you know what I'm saying. That's the other ship, Like we want to be seen so we know, like, yo, it's not gonna be the same. If you come in with some fucking shoe bobs ship, well, I think that

you're hitting on something really important. Is that so much of this is about just visibility, right that, Like the only true source for visibility is creation. If they've stolen all of your other resources, like if you don't allow me to have any sort of say in any other part of the way that like financial institutions and like education work. Then my only way of existing even in the world and the grand scheme of the world is

to create something. And my creation has to somehow be better than the thing that you've deemed the best out in the world already or just if front a lot of the times, because like that's the rebellious of going, oh, that's what y'all doing, that's what we're gonna do. So it almost makes you like, even like say hip hop, like it makes the traditional music fan when it comes out, the niggas is angry. They don't want to hear this

fucking hippie gibberish ship. They listened to the Franks and Natro fucking little roles all that, all that type of ship shoot bopp do wop ship, and these motherfucker's coming out like you like, and they're dancing differently, right. I was about to say, they had to be a devastating turn from like the white people were doing the foxtrone, do you know what I mean? Like they were doing a one too back and forth, and then suddenly a motherfucker came in and slid on his knees and did

a backflip. And you're like, all right, bro, y'all ain't playing the same game we're playing. Because I was over here fox striding. I was chilling. Do you think he's just doing moves jumping on the floor, humping the floor? Bro right, and then spending on their fucking jemy curls was crazy. Elvis became in the most famous man in the world because he was the first white man to use his pelvis and who stole that from? And he

stole it, that's my point. He stole that from from from a bunch of poor people who were already using their pelvis. They've been doing that. Yeah, it was already a thing. And it's like, okay, well you either, like you said, you either find a way to make it different and create value from it, or you just don't exist. You become invisible in the society. I said, bro, you gotta make noise, especially like yeah, it's like all right,

well fun, they don't want me. I'm gonna do this and like the other way and it's gonna upset people. That's kind of like what I think. A lot of it comes not to upset people, but it's just the way to express yourself. You know. Hell yeah, alright, we're gonna take a break and then we're gonna be back with more pdd ibrew and more. My mama told me, damn, we are bad. My man supposed to smat his meat with this ship. Bro, what the fun? And we're back

here with more pity Drew? Who are my mama told me, we're still talking about the possibility that true happiness is birth from the struggle, from these things that we have to earn and not from these things that are simply handed to us. We were sort of talking about the things getting stolen. Do you think that some of that plays its hand in the way that people define their happiness or define sort of like the goodness that comes out of the struggle? Uh? That should sounded mad scientifical?

Can you rephrase that? Pleast what I think I'm asking? Like, there is real evidence that so much of what poor people, in black people, in brown people will create is often stolen and reappropriated for a white audience. Right, do you think that that has its hand in how people are able to enjoy their creation? You're saying how white people can enjoy the thievery or how black people can enjoy what was stolen. Oh, and that's deep. I wish I knew the like the word to define that, yo, because

like that was like deep and mad different levels. Like all right, so they from talk me through your thoughts so to say, like hip hop right, like because like to me, I feel like that's the most you know hip hop is like because it has so many different facets, whether fashion, art all that. Ship it's like it's under a hip hop umbrella. So it's like, all right, it's a multi billion dollar industry, right, cool hirt. The person that invented hip hop, right, the motherfucker is broke, right,

he invented hip hop. He's broke, has nothing. I mean he got probably a couple of sandwiches and you know a few things. But you know what I'm saying. But now it do make it easier because now it's like, you know, like imagine the first dudes that were rapping, how did those deals even look? It was like just the dude that seeing some dude. They didn't even understand what rap was, probably but they was like, yo, these things doing it for free. We put it out, maybe

we could like make some money. We get the temperance and we keep ninety and tell them we're keeping it a hunted and it confused these things. It was like that had up. So yeah out sign, well I signed, missed to go ahead. But we enjoyed the sweat and the pain and the blood of the pioneers. We get to we get to benefit off of the cool hurts or the people that didn't get any type of pay.

To your point, I think what you're saying is that although a cool hurt is now saying fuck the culture because of what the culture sort of left him with, there's a generation that follows him that then gets to enjoy the culture that he created and benefit from the culture that he created, and then also just to pass you don't see, but I don't know that old nig.

They think it's mad disrespectful bob, But dude, that you like it mad disrespectful too, because you'd be like telling the whole story, like, Yo, they jerked him whatever he's like, shouldn't have been a dumb nigger, then yo, chill out, bro right, I'm doing is disrespectful, Like they would have known that it was um in the exact circumstances that he was the only reason, you know, it's dumb is because there are stories of a person making the wrong

choice and then being punished for it, you know what happens to like the cycle is never really broken because it's always like that's what I'm saying, the struggle. Bro. Even with that knowledge out there, there's still gonna be a kid that's starving somewhere that they say, Yo, listen, you're gonna look like this. You're gonna say this and you're gonna get X amount of dollars and people gonna

be like, yeah, well, okay. So that brings me, I think into some of the research that I impacked in this or tried to unpack in this, and it connects directly. And I think hip hop and jazz in a lot of ways in terms of lack American invention, have a very clear relationship, right, And so I was looking up,

like where did jazz come from? And apparently in a dude named Buddy Bolden starts a band where he basically is the first person to start playing live jazz music and everybody yeah, and they're like, holy shit, Buddy Bowling, this dude is great and for years he's like a cool dude on the scene. He's like underground, but he's flying people fucking with it. They love jazz. But then there's all these people who claimed that jazz wasn't in

fact invented by Buddy Bolden. It was invented basically almost twenty years later, in nineteen seventeen by this dude named nick A Rocca. White dude, come on, who went and made jazz and put it on record? Do you know what I'm saying? Like, Buddy Bolden was doing some like cool ship with his friends and playing in clubs, but then nick Larrocca like put that ship on wax, and now everybody's like, man, nick Larrocca, that's the guy. He

invented it. Yeah, it's real fucked up. And so it put me in a weird place with your conspiracy because it it makes me feel like, how much of this do we really get to enjoy? When somebody comes in and usurps are cool ship? Do you know what I'm saying, Like, how much of that is still ours? If nick Larrocca it becomes the face of jazz music? No, but you know the real ones. No, my man, buddy, feel me,

Buddy Balding. That's why, like when you said that, I'm like Damn, I wonder what this thing was going through in his life. Like Buddy Bolden when he came with the jazz. He know what I'm saying, he might have been down on this luck. He might just came up, you know what I'm saying. He might have just got some tops, some buns or something by Shorty. You know, I'm saying he was down on his luck and you're passing my fuck the saxophone bro, and he started playing

some ship because he felt jazzy. You know what I'm saying. Imagine how good you gotta get your dick stuck for you to to pick up a trumpet and start playing all the keys at once, just wilding on that motherfucker because hey, that's jazz. Baby, no memthor to the madness, it's just all it's all good. So that's like what he was on. And then you know, my man, Now he ain't my man, but whatever his name is now

your dear friend Nicola Rocca. See, he even tried to steal black people swag like you know, the Rock used to be a big name back in the day, rock Scot the Rock, you know, Toddle Rock. This is always a love rock, you know, what I'm saying. So he came stole a whole vibe from my man's in them because he know, my man buddy was just in the streets shaking to shut up, right, you know what I'm saying. That's like Ao Langston me being down at the corner bringing your sacks. I got my trumpet, my man got

the drums. Unless like smoke some reefa something you know what achieve achieva because it's it's nineteen hundred and that's what that's what it's called back then. Why do you think too, like refa madness thinks we're smoking weed doing the jazz music, and the white people that I couldn't understand it. It It was madness to them. It's like what the fund is this mania? Like what is this crazy ship going on? Yeah, it's like, yo, it's just an expression.

It's not crazy, right, And I do think that that is such a fascinating part of the way that it gets manipulated. Right if we think about it in terms of like jazz and hip hop, they're both music that start off as sort of like this cool new invention with like a purity and an innocence to it, and

then white people started calling it devilish. They started calling it evil in some sort of way by associating it with drugs and violence, and then once becomes this sort of like weird debate about whether or not it's evil, they jump in and start making their own version of it, which is somehow more consumerable and safer for its audience. That's like, look at the WAP song. Right, They just tried to ban the WAP song bro Right, they try,

it's just dying from particles. They worrying about a wet ass pussy with like well because of the black woman and a Dominican woman had the notion to actually say what make the world happy. Let me be very clear, a wet ass pussy ain't hurting nobody now never once, not not in the history of Maine. It's heard a lot of feelings with nothing else but a wet ass pussy. It's done nothing but good work in the world. And

there's no reason to ban in that. And I understand if you're uncomfortable playing that around your children, but that's a conversation you need to have that ain't got shipped to do with those girls and the WAP. That's how jazz was invented. I'm saying, my man, but my man, buddy has some wet hopped on that trumpet. Pop down, Yeah,

he felt something. I love that. Okay. So one of the things that I think I also found myself challenged by in your conspiracy theory, and challenged is a weighted word, because it's not that I disagree with it, it's just I think there's complexity on the backside, right, is that where does poverty come from specifically and is it essential

to the way that we live in society? And so I found this article that sort of lists off all of the benefits quote unquote benefits of poverty, and one of the things that they listed was, in fact, what you're saying, the invention of culture, the invention of the things that we celebrate. But then there's this other more devastating side of the list that I want to just go through with you and get your thoughts on as

we go that work absolutely hell yet. Okay. So one of the first benefits quote unquote that they say for poverty is like dirty work and domestic work for other people, doing the dirty work that we as people in society don't want to do. Of course, I mean, even like for me like, look, when I was hustling on the illegal side of things. If I need somebody to do a job for me, like a foul job, I'm gonna

have my man down the block that's starving. I'm not gonna after they're gonna have shipped the loose like he's gonna be like, yo, you get you work with somebody that has something to lose. As soon as the cops pull up on them, they're like, I'll tell you everything. I got back to my ship the loop. I never wanted to be here, man, I will. I will give you all you need to know. Like a poor dude. They never gonna say I just wanted to be down. Poor dude is gonna be like, yo, I just had

to eat. Man. You know what I'm saying you At the beginning of Juicy, all the people that call the cops, I was just trying to feed my daughter, he didn't say I was just trying to cop a fucking I was just trying to fit in with my friends. I was hungry and my daughter was gonna starve. Absolutely. Oh that ship is a fact. Society definitely benefits off of poor people, and so one of the things that they say in relation to sort of like the usage of domestic work and sort of this dirty work is the

potential for upward mobility. That because someone is willing to do the dirty work in society, we create a hierarchy, right where like, because I'm not the one that picks the oranges, I am somehow now better than the person picking oranges and thus exists in a different kind of cast system, even though we won't call it that because we think we're better than that. You know what I mean,

that's classism, broact. That's like, yo, say that you had a homeless shelter, right, even at the homeless shelter, this is one dude or one person that thinks that, like you know, they're above the other homeless person. Dogs. He's like, you know, my ass stink. At least I don't smell like as you like I'm but at least I don't smell like feet, Like, hey, I made my bed, I'm better than this ship. I'm gonna I'm gonna be all right. And it's like I'm organized, Like yeah, we do that

on every level. It's not just like a homeless thing, right, Like I'm just saying he's like showing you how low it could go like all the way to but it's the people who live in a suburban neighborhood and want their lawn to look better than the person they live next to. Y'all basically share the same space or like in a hood like yo boom, we all live in the same buildings. But I'm gonna get a car that

you don't have. Well, I'm gonna get some shoes sneakers that you don't got, or I'm gonna get something, and then I'm gonna look at shoe like you basic. You know what I'm saying, because that ship whatever is going on,

fortified my ego, you know what I'm saying. Yeah, And that takes me into something that they also say is that a benefit of poverty is something called moral distancing, which is basically this argument that we are able to create hierarchies through the way that we associate morality and poor people that like, poor people are thought to be less moral than rich people like you as a poor person, and are going to commit more crimes or be more

likely to sell drugs or do something violent, and therefore it allows us to not only distance ourselves from the people who are morally less than but also not feel bad when we don't provide them with resources. It's like, oh, y'all are acting up, so fuck it. I ain't gonna give you money. I'm not gonna help you out. No, because you know it's crazy because you know the systematic ship is like they set us up to lose. You

feel me. Um, It's like it's like what we're saying earlier, like of course the nigga with nothing to lose, it's gonna go risk everything. I'm saying, even me, I used to be that guy, Like I used to be the guy like I'll risk everything because it doesn't seem like a brighter future is around the corner. That was always the logic I'm saying. The people doing dirt is like, that's part of the that's the logic. It's like, you

know nothing, what's my other option? Exactly? A lot of the time, through the poverty that I'm talking about, it's like it's a state of mind. It's even beyond your financial situation or whatever that is, material situation. It's about the way you think, you know what I'm saying. So if you think things can't get you pour mentally, like you're poor, you're gonna stay poor until you end up

dead or in jail, you know what I mean. Yeah, I think that also is something they sort of like dig into, although not I think it's sharp as you're making it. But they say that poor people sort of bear the brunt of social disruptions. Right, So, anytime some ship happens out in the world and they decide to change the law around something, or they decide coronavirus great example, they decide that, like, okay, the pandemic kicked in and everybody needs to go quarantine inside. Poor people are the

ones that suffer from that. Their jobs get taken away. First, they're the ones who are being policed most intensely for the things that are happening instead of the rich people who are probably doing the exact same ship that poor people are. But poor people, like you said, are trapped in not only a social locking but also like a mental locking of like okay, well, now you took away the one thing that I had, what the funk am I supposed to do? And then it's like yo, the

worst ship too. It's like yo, you take away the jobs? Do you take away all these things and then you leave us together. So even when they was like looting and ship. And he was like, Yo, I can't believe they're looting, Like the undertones are looting. Was not only that, you know, people are tired, but people are poor. Yeah, niggas was stealing bread, bro, Like niggas wasn't just stealing fucking sneakers and clothing like people were stealing food. Say,

people were stealing from the supermarket. Because it's like people steal in formula for their kids. Like it wasn't just you know, of course the only show like all this person stole a TV or some ship, but there's people actually like I'm gonna take this TV and hopefully I can sell it so I can have money. A motherfucker with a with a PS four under his arm is better television than a dude with like three loaves of bread and swim maloney, you know what I mean? Like

that terrible jan what are you doing? Get the helicopter footage on this motherfucker over here with the Jordan's if you don't want to see this, yo, that's what it is, bro. Like, yeah, I think it's just set up to lose. And then on top of that, yo, we're gonna go in on each other that's just how it is. Like I still be in the hood, like I still be like I gotta walk a certain way, I gotta be a certain way, I gotta vibe a certain way, like just to feel

like comfortable because I understand what's going on. I think this is on drugs to ease the pain. A lot of the times people was just like it's bugged the funk out. These are times that people haven't experienced before, especially like poor people. We've always been poor, and now it's like insult to the injury. It's a little extra seasoning on poverty that no one wanted. No one was Everybody was like, hey, I get poverty. I know what

it tastes like this is fine. And then they were like and we have a new flavor, and like, nah, I don't need this. Droplets on it. It came with the palmish on virus droplets on They just spraple out

on it. It would like a little more droplets. Like the worship to Bro is like New York City Bro, like you out west, so like we open on something like nas was on the train Brother, like people on the train right now, Like you know New York Bro, like that everybody's got the right amount the scruples going on every train call, you're gonna look and see like three people with no masks on row mouth in it

like and they want you to say something. They're waiting for you to be like, hey, why you ain't got a mask on? You turn into something else. I seen the dude do something so disrespectful the other day. Not only did he have on a mask, your he yawned mad like he was like, you can't be this is yawns hit different now, bro, this is not the same. Bro, Like, that's what I wish your bitch would say something yawned And I'm gonna testing. I must see if one of

y'all got the huts. But right now, everybody put their head down because they were trying to avoid them droplets to the eye, so they just put their head down. Like, but now that's poor people ship, bro, Like I got this theory too, Like, all right, there a couple of type of people that don't win mask. You'll either one.

It's like you just don't give a funk about anything or anybody and like you got nothing to lose, or you a conspiracy theorist as far as you don't believe that the virus is a thing, which is insane to me.

But you know, those are the two types of people, the people that have absolutely nothing, like what the fund do I have to lose and I don't care about anybody else, You know what I'm saying, right, I think ultimately what I landed on and thinking about or conspiracy theory is I do think that you're absolutely correct that like poverty does create culture, it does sort of create the waves that society then goes on to celebrate and follow.

But the scary part is how much of this is being constructed and maintained by a wealth class, by like the capitalists of it. They are literally creating lists of reasons why it's beneficial to have certain people be poor in certain people be rich so that you know, they can create, Like they want a bunch of people in the hood to come up with new dance moves so that they can then appropriate it and sell it on fucking TikTok whenever, on TikTok without the hood bro absolutely

not technically China, but also the Hood. But it wouldn't know. That's what I said. We add sauce to everything. We made hip hop music there was already music music, but we to our own spin on it. So it's like, oh you do TikTok boom kiki? Do you love me?

Are you writing? Yeah? Come on bro? Even Drake, he made a song he didn't know a hood nigga was gonna come and make a whole dance and the ship go viral like that, and Shiggy Shiggy wasn't even gonna get credit until the Internet sort of like came in and was like, hey, bro, you should probably do something for him because he kind of made you pop in a way that you weren't supposed to. And that's Drake. Drake was supposed to be decent. It's a literally a

capitalist structure. It's people intentionally creating a wealth gap for their own benefit. Why do people say most people's best albums as their first albums. Niggas is hungry when they make them first albums. Niggas is like, this ship is like like this is everything, this is like if this don't work, I'm a starve my family. So of course that body of work is gonna be crazy, like, oh,

you're putting your whole life into that. But then once you get that back, you come back and you're like, I'm saying you won't be good, but it ain't gonna have that same I think trouble seasonings rap doesn't sound as good in between mimosas, do you know what I mean? Like the mimosis they funk up your throat a little bit and they're making so the hip hop ain't his hips at ship too soft? Now? Like that? Yeah, I can hear strawberries in your throat. I don't like the

sound of that. All Right, we're gonna take more, more break and we'll be back with more p d d aprew and more my mama told me. And we are back. My god, you're back here with more PDDA brew and more of my mama told me. We're still talking about that sick, sick, sinister ship that capitalism does and keeping us poor and letting us service their needs so that they can sell our ship TikTok's and other websites that

will probably be invented very soon. I assume they'll come up with some new ship, right, this ain't TikTok's not the last one. They're gonna come up with a struggle tracker app like you know how they got the step tracker. They're gonna come up with the struggle tracker so they can see how many steps to take to create some

flyship from the struggle. You gotta struggle five years before you come out with a fucking illmatic, Like it's like a Malcolm Gladwell's study of like ten thousand hours before you can make something new. Hours of struggle, yo, and then you'll be ready to a You gotta eight Peter Butter sandwiches in one night before, not even fashion bro, not real quick like fashion like imagine. I think it's got rips in the jeans that came from a nigga with rips in his gee dad's and that I was

talking to somebody about this. There's a brand of shoes now that they sell pre dirty. They're like scuffed up and sort of meant to look like they're worn in, and they're like they sell for hundreds and maybe thousands of dollars because people want exactly what you're saying, the appearance of somebody who has earned a look, you know what I mean, think about the white girl like this is I don't know how it is late. It is a trend. I don't know if it's just in New York.

But it's like a trend with the white shorties, right, white girls, they were white Air Force ones. Them ships look like they just got them from like a homeless person. Them ships look like when they buy them and they all white, they just like you know what the escalator stairs when like the bottom of the escalator stairs with like they just hold them up. Yeah, Like they hold it on the bottom and just let all the stairs just like go across from like and in in the hood.

That's sacrilegious, bro, White Airce because it's like trying to serve them ships as long as they can. Bro. So we invented a vibe and they came took it and made it some whole other ship. Even this ugly sneaker ship right like all this fad of people being like I want my sneakers to look big and clunky. It's appropriating that experience of like when you were a kid, if you didn't have shoes, somebody older than you gave you their shoes, and the ships didn't fit, so they

were big and clunky on your feet. And now people are using hand me down clothing, recyclable clothing as like a fashion steak. It's wild it's it's fucking nuts and we we should blow up a building. I don't know. That's where I'm at. Some big clunky shoe store needs to explode. Because this is too much. I just got off probation last year, so I'm not gonna agree with this. You know what I'm saying. If anything happens, I had nothing to do with it. I'm saying, you heard it

here first. It's just me. I'm the only one that wants to blow up a building, and he's gonna snitch on me. I think that's the end. Nobody man kidding me. Bro, I can't say all that flashing and then rat they to nullifies anything I ever believed in or sent. It's the fancy words for a snitche. I know one of my fucker's about to snitch on me. All right, let's play a game. This is a fun game that I

like to call homemade Hotel. This is the game. I will present to you a traditional fact, a well known fact in the world, and what I would like for you to do is hotep that ship, really break it down, give me the conspiracy underneath this fact. Let me understand what am I not seeing? Connect the dots for me, pet if if that makes sense? All right? So apparently, so far in the world, only two diseases have been

successfully eradicated, like fully wiped off of the planet. The two diseases are smallpox and rinding pest was the second one? R and then pest, render pest. I don't know what render pest is. I know smallpox. Uh. My question for you, why are those two diseases the only two diseases that have been wiped off the planet? I mean small pox? You already know who eradicated the smallpox. That had to be like George Washington Carver or or another black man.

You feel me, because one we don't really funk with pox if it ain't two pox, feel me too. See how we still got chicken pox because we fox with chicken m but we don't do nothing small everything big You know what I'm saying, Like if it was if it was big pox, nigger should still still be here. But we gotta get rid of the smallpox and just keep the chicken pox. You feel me A k a big pox, big box. And then the rind was it rhand disease? Rinder pest? So if anybody know anything, the

rind is what on the watermelon. That's the base of the water right, So now if it's a pest you feel me. You know what's my favorite words since concepted in his address on what was that Independence Day where he said a pestilence, a pestilence. You called Trump a pestilence. You know, he said, when there's a pestilence in the system. So when it's a pestilence in the in the rind of the watermelon, now there ain't the watermelon. Gotta get

rid of that. You gotta get rid of that. How are we gonna enjoy that delicious treat if you got the pest the like if they put the rona in the rhind of a watermelon, rona would have been going by now we would have figured something out when they got rid of the pestilence. But that was genius. I loved it. Called motherfucking books complete. It's been that real ship. I love it. This breaks it all down from I'm just trying to bring you the truth, my brother. You

know what I'm saying. You can't you called on me. I'm gonna come. I'm gonna come through, man, and you show the funk up. What a great time, Pete, can you tell the people where they can find you? What cool ship you got going on? All that? You know? You can find me on the Graham. You know what I'm saying. I'm on the gram p D S jokes p D like D as in dog and E E Z and then jokes. You find me there, um other

than that, catch me in New York City. Man, I ain't leaving because they're telling me I gotta quarantine if I leave and then I come back, So I say I might as well just stay here.
