Conversations About Pressure

gonna be a lot of fist maybe wrestling. You know, somebody got a host of mine the headline for a minute and be men, you're trying to do this and be talking to That's part of the five minutes. That's part of the five minutes. So look though, what was I saying? Uh uh Turkey sandwich on marble rye from Sprouts like season and Peppercini's is better than pussy to me? Pussy at like my idea. When it's like time with the woman, it's not pussy like it never it's been

so long since it's been value with pussy. Once I realized, like the four value of the time with the woman. I know that's gonna sound crazy, right, but I'm also the kind of person that invest in people. That's just who I am as a human being. No, no, no, no, there's it. Let me regize the verb choice of invest hold up, listen, investing energy and time. But let me let me make my point. So like after the fourth girl I had sex within my life, ven me, I

realized pussy didn't have no value. M Like, unless I was gonna have a child, pussy didn't have no value. It became like, Solder, what okay, can you please attempt to expand upon why you chose the verb invest over the verb spending, because I don't apparently understand that one of the two words means or the context has completely blown up in my face. Right, Well, so you're not. I've always believed right investing in women? Well people? Right,

I like my greatest investment is human beings. That's investment. Well it's different, right, I put in, I pour into people. Pause, I pour into people. Right, um, knowledge, wisdom, anybody that's around me. It's my natural thing as a human being. But why say you're invested? Why aren't you just spending or donating? Because I have endless supply, like a wealth of it. But but again, you can have an endless supply of anything and donating. I don't think it's don't

nating because it's always paid off. However it paid off, it paid off a little health here. I mean, I'm with you, so I can't how did it pay off? What depends? It depends on the person. It depends on the person, anyone. I don't care. Okay, So like let's say head right, DJ head Paul, okay, hit it's not like men and women. Okay, I got you. Um. I used to have an assistant. Her name was Jelsa Scales. Jelsa is like a super talented person. Um, her talents

to me lie in um. Everybody know. Her name is Lisa, Lisa Bad. She goes by um the Baddest, and she had all kind of crazy monikers. But a lot of people felt that she wasn't really a valuable asset because they felt like whether her education or some things about her wasn't what they particularly need to be successful and whatever. The venture was a professional context here, No, I'm giving you an example of this one. Then I'll go to

a personal context. So it's like, um, this person I pretty much taught them a little bit more than they understood about dealing with people, right and now, when I need something specifically, like if I need to get to where puff is at or if I need to get where to what's puffing them TV show? Um, you know the TV show puffing? Um got cut the channel? Revote, Yeah, revote, like I have access into it. If I need to get to a concert, if I need to go inside of a concert, I can call Lisia and it happens

like that, right, and that's worthy. Right. Personal relationship M my home girl Crystal, I mean, Crystal is super dope. Right, never did business, but in my highest heyday, Right, she would ask me to come to her gatherings. Right, she would do gatherings at her house, um, where she would have parties. And I'm not a party person. I mean I don't hate them, but I'm just not fond of them. That's not how I choose to spend my time. So I would go because she asked me to come. I

guess it. It could be like she you know, we were super cool and she wanted my company. But more than likely it was the fact that that time I was super popping. You know, I was really popular. I always been somewhat popular, but I was super popular, and me being at her function meant something to other people. I didn't think it created economics. For her, it meant something and on the status level, whatever she felt, she would sure, Yeah there you go, uh social currency and

now right, because I always did that for her. Now like when I'm when I'm on my health kicks and I'm going tough, right, I'm going tough, like if I need somebody to make like if I want to carry cake right when I'm eating right, and I had to get the whole week right, unrefined wheat, and I have to get unrefined sugar, all of these natural products that people who cook don't cook with. I could take it to her and she'll make the cake for me. No

problem should do anything for me, I'm saying. So I've always invested in the people, even like a like somebody might see a bum on the street and and or somebody that's doing bad and I might give them ten dollars. It's always a long term investment in me in my mind, not on purpose, is just how I see it. I see value in people, even other people don't see value in Okay, so it's just like a gift. It works out for me. Gift is also an interesting word choice.

But sure no, who sailings gl my boy Peter and his spin is not resident guests and and and logo player that made good Uncle Muke is in and Spen is not about the debut that new podcast Muddy Waters with Dr Hoodie was heading in. So y'all Uncle Moo, y'all make sure y'all follow him because of his podcast and some ship. I need to addit. When we did with his his his co host, the hung Girl Dr Husson was telling me I was kissing up to Peter because he was a white man. That was pretty hilarious.

I was out of everybody, like I really yeah, how like super racist? I am as a human being. Yeah, she gave you credit for credit. It's like whatever you like whatever the white man whatever. Peter said. Me and Peter don't agree with ship, but Peter is my man. So I took it on the chain because you know it is what it is. But their podcast is gonna be fired. Yeah, yeah, I peeped my head into a few of the life fee is on on the I

t for that. It's there is some good. I was telling U. I was telling the the President of black effects. You know the people who Charlotte Man had to deal with my heart. It's a young lady, beautiful lady. Uh, I'm having a strangle Dolly Dolly Bishop, look up Dolly Dolly, so fucking dope. I was telling. I was like, you, I got a podcast. It's gonna blow you fucking mind. There's two people that got like high degrees and fucking

psychology and they both black. And this ship is hilarious because somehow they still maintain some level of street conversation. It's just funny. But look, well again, you gotta check that our ship for the drive either this week or next week. It's supposed to be tomorrow. We're supposed to be the day before y'all hear this podcast. But um, I'm sucked up, so I don't know if I'm being the editor tonight. I kind of have to edit and

everything all our ships. So we'll get it done. It'll be there for sure, this motherfucker if it ain't now. But um, everybody's talking about one thing, funk that, And I never like to go with the flow if I can, because I usually think the floor is wrong. But we've got to talk about Will slapping this ship out of Chris. Yeah, I don't want to talk about it from the proper that that angle that everybody is speaking of, which is, oh is he wronger right? Because I don't really believe

in wronger right right? I believe in something different? Can we all agree? Once he looked at Jada, That's what made him slap Chris Rock, he was like, you know what this? I definitely agree what you think? Pete? Why why I didn't watch? I saw. I just saw the instagram means of where he walked up and hit um so he So Chris just made a joke, like a hair joke and then yeah, like he said, uh something to the effect of she was getting ready for g I Jane too. And I think it's common knowledge in

the business. I don't know about the public, but I know in the business is common knowledge that she suffers from like a severe case of alopecia, so she after is that something that you could that could be sexually transmitted? Because I heard some things about her marriage last year. I don't quite know, just curious. I don't know how

that works. Little will will slap Yo. You can't talk about it, Chris, I hold that, bro, what we're not fit to do is get that Chris like that because Chris and Chris a class a great comedian, Like I think for sure, I think for sure he should eventually took that nigga back stage and lined him up. He like, Will, for sure, you need to call Will and be like, we need to we need to meet in the private spot because we need to get this off to make sure. You know what I mean, like I feel the way

I need to feel. Yeah, but um, I was so you so you think so for sure? Moved like it was. Let me looked at Jay was definitely when I saw it, that's thought that first laugh laughing, h I'll take the step partly. So in this book, I know he's struggling the area of protecting women in his family. That was what well he um, he got a partner in his book.

That's that I could touch on right now. Um, whereas mind was getting hit by his pops and he felt you know, him and his brother and his sister they witnessed it and he was unable to provide protection for his mom or whatever. So throughout out in life he's been calling himself like a coward. So for me, especially when I saw it and he looked at Jada. It was like, I can't continue to be it. Yeah, I can't continue to be this coward. Yeah that's tough. That's

that's something I know. Make me that don't even that's fucked up, man. And to me, so many things happened with us, you know, men, especially brothers, I mean even even white people. Don't pe even white man where you'll find yourself trying to conquer a lifetime of pain in one moment, you know what I mean, where you just and and and you hear you hear so much about that ship, right, you hear so much shit about um.

You know, obviously if the public is correct, they have some type of open relationship, right, and whatever we all is doing, we never hear about it. Like however, we all got the girl's going. It's always kept under wraps. Whatever Jay to do. Everybody know somehow she is like the worst at this ship, you know what I mean, in my school, you know who she was knocking down everything, and will ship is so kept under wrapped, so much better. And that's weird because in the real world it's never

like that. Usually the women be doing some bullshit that don't nobody know what they're doing, and the men always get caught. But in this particular situation, you know what I mean, it's the exact Yeah, I don't what we're saying. I said that might be they play on it. They like that, magnify that ship to make. Motherfucker doesn't even want to watch her at all because ain't nobody really paying it into to it, Because this nigg is making

ship like King Richard. Yeah, you haves a Kardashian blueprint? Is a successful blueprint? Yeah? Bro? What the fuck? Jada has talent? She's not a Kardashian. I know, I know, I understand that. Do you think Jella wanted ten? Where would Jada be as an actress? Boy? Um, I'm not disputing she's a bona fide actress. I mean, as she a talented actress. Yeah, she's a bona fide a good actress. She's she's a good actress. I'm just saying her career

stand alone the last many years. I let's I'm not a movie buff and I could be dead after wrong that we're talking about what she's been doing the last ten fifteen years. And what's crazy is six out of ten I would say six seven something like that she's she's as glad as I'm a female, poor version of Denzel. This is why they it's like really poor august nuts in their mouth. I see they get called I'm just no,

I'm just playing. I'm saying that's why they magnified. But um, six years ago, Chris Rock did the Oscars before, and it was at a time when a lot of brothers and sisters was boycotting the Oscars because it wasn't no black nominees, right, Which that's a whole another thing that I have a huge issue with, Like this, this dire need to be accepted by Peter in the world is just crazy to me. Like, I'm not worried. Yeah, I don't think. I'm not worried of Peter thinks I'm intelligent.

I don't worry if Peter thinks I'm smart. I don't worry it what the fun Peter thinks about what I do? Because you know, Peter said some kind of standard of years and like please, like this is a new world. So but I do understand people who are trying to break barriers for other people. So again, why personally that's not my thing. I understand the journey some some of the brothers and sisters on so a lot of people was boycotting the Oscars. I think it's fifteen or sixteen,

maybe even seventeen, fifteen sixty one or the other. And he had jokes where he was shooting on Will and and and Jada pretty much like a decent part of the opening monologue. And he had something like Jada boycotting the Oscars is the equivalent of me boycotting Rihanna panties. Either one of us is what's gonna getting at or get invited into it. And I just thought that was funny.

But then now the slap starts to make a little bit more chan where like, bro, you're gonna get at me like that while I'm here, and and I was talking to Joey about the Joey west Side right from the l A jiants, and he was politicking. He's so mad because Joey is a super pro advocate for comedians and comedians having the space to to to make jokes and nothing be off limits. And I'm saying, well, if you do that right, then you have to do that for the arts right because we live in a society

and I don't agree with that. I totally. One seventeen percent don't agree with people should be able to say what they want to say about everybody and it's cool now. I don't think corporations should economically start to you know, like everybody don't gotta kick your ass, but if you say something specifically about a person, for me, you may be held accountable for your words. And you always have been.

In the comedy though, like it's it's what they saying, and they do a great job illustrating this on Seinfeld's Comedians and Cars Getting Copy, which Chris has been on. He's had Steve Harvey on there a lot of ye before A thought that, yeah, the Steve Harvey what I thought was great because they were talking about this specifically.

It's like it's you're always on that line of what's funny and what's too far, and you don't know you're too far until you've done it, and in the audience tells you it's too far, you're gonna It's like an immediate dynamic marketplace. It's like it's like the floor of the stock exchange. If it's price too high, the price is gonna come down because no one's gonna offer you that they're gonna offer you a dollar lesson. That's what

the prices. So it's like it's not like in the world of comedy, you're ever gonna skate from you know, the results, it doesn't happen. But that's like real hip hoplem. It's the same thing when you like real gangster wrap and you really start to unearth that culture. I went through the same thing with two Pacmas die. You start to unearthed that culture, like like that lesson of morality, and it cost the life of one of the most, if not the most beloved artists in the history of

rap music. Um, you don't know what's too far and and my thing was always yo, if somebody had a problem, you know, I was okay with the problem, however you want to deal with If his fan, if a fan walked up to me and God at me for me, however he want to deal with it, we could deal with it. If somebody that claimed the gang, they had a problem to deal with however you want to deal

with it. If it's his family. I talked to his family and you know, they let me know how they felt about it, and you know, however they want to deal with it. Mo Prime is his brother, who was somebody who looked out for me early on in his business. But if he had a problem that our lost, anybody who had a problem, we could deal with it, you know what I mean. I'm okay with it. But I'm also okay, well whatever comes my way for unearthed and said culture, and I think the way Chris Rock dealt

with it was the same way. Now. Obviously, if if Edie just walked up and slapped me on stage, don't beat the y for it gets some motherfucking hands and feet, but we for the dog dass out you forel me. But I'm not going to take it too far. I'm not going to kill Eadie, you know, over something that I understand, what could possibly hurt his feelings, regardless if it was intended to or not. I don't like any time I listened to that song as a creative, I

don't really know what people are mad at. I just know people would be mad. Well, that's the difference between the speaker and the listener, you know. And people get mad sometimes with the speaker's word, but they don't get they don't consider the speakers intay. And that's particularly true comedy because in comedy, either goal is just let's say something that makes this audience laugh in hip hop, right

in the art of it. All right, you really are under pressure right to deliver culture that hasn't been revealed. You don't, you don't have to, you know, I mean, some people just make whatever. But the greatest art or the greatest hip hop makes comfortable people uncomfortable, yea, and it becomes the voice of the uncomfortable and helping soothe

whatever it is. Like, it's nothing like when the first time somebody heard the police, you know what I mean, if you was going through that stuff in our community and now you had a voice with somebody was saying like man, even though it represents so few, so few in America, And it wasn't just the hood. It was certain, you know, very conservative people who feel like the government was too busy involved in their life. You mean, it's

it's people. It's a small minute. People of America feel like, you know, they don't really care for the police's way of doing business. So it's a tough out. And I think on both ends, like, I just don't think that slap represented just the simplicity of what happened. And I think a lot of people are thinking that they think that slap is like, oh, he made a joke about my wife. My wife has this ailment feel me, and

I'm gonna slap him. No, this is I believe this is a lot going on, Like like Muke just brought up about stuff with his personal life and things and and even his wife. His wife has been a target of people, you know what I mean. And rightfully so she's a celebrity. You know, she got her own stuff going on and and the material rights itself. But that don't mean you can always make the joke in front of the husband. Like and and like I said, I told joe y'all understood. You know, his his his umbrella.

He wants for comedians. But I'm like, I don't live in that space where every man feels like they can say what they want and some other men can't say, hey, you need to answer for that. Yeah, I mean, I'm not with that world where it's like, well if I didn't put my hands on you can't put my hands. If you verbally assault somebody, they can respond with a

physical assault of defense back. Like if that was a case, intelligent people would always have the odds because they just make all these witty jokes, com Peters of the world for me could just tear you down and that's it. No, somebody may have stressing my name. No, no, no, this particular is Peter right where you're super witty dude. You're a comedian, right, you could literally crack jokes right and make somebody feel me shrink on into the smallest corner.

There's some people who have physical physical attributes the way you have mental. And I'm saying, obviously you can defend yourself. I'm not saying you know, pump. I'm just saying there's people who has your wit level cards and different types. Yeah, and that's why I feel like you gotta be real careful when you start to assault somebody. You start to insult somebody, that's the US fault as well. I mean,

you're verbally assaulting them. My thing is influences. I tell you that what you mean, I'm just talking about even if you're talking, if you get legally, you know, you got sample, let's all you got. Aggravating us all you're

gonna do different time, That's all I'm telling you. So when you make it a choice, but go ahead, Like there's a certain irony to go back to the point before about how comedians and hip hop er too for comedy and hip hoppers two genres that have immediate backlash by the audience, and critically, you've heard enough examples in hip hop and other types of music or throughout history that went too far. We're aghast by that, that joke went too far. We don't want to hear that ship.

It's fascinating it in that room, what the oscars. When was the last time you heard somebody go that movie went too far. It's never been fucking sent. It's never been said. I said that all the time about bro Bag Mountain. You say that critically an audience, wise, it doesn't happen. I'm a critical mind, you're a you're an isolated opinion. There's not there's not a culture. It's not it's not a community of people saying that. People have

their opinion. Usually it's like, oh, that movie was boring, that movie was redundant. You don't hold your breath every time a movie premieres. Ago is the it's the public kind of think they went too far. That's not the standard for them for whatever reason. And the people in a room, because they're insulated from that they're the most self righteous people that you could ever assemble into any

room on this planet is in that room. Additionally, they bring Chris in to be a comedian on their behalf for their big, self righteous, grandiose parade of bullshit for two hours. And what do they want. They want him to roast the people up front a little bit because that makes it better for the audience and the whole ship. So they hired to come in and crack jokes about the people in the front row. That's what the funk they bring. You know, it's it's never a drama actor

who comes into host the oxers, what is it? Every single time it's a comedian, which for me, and I'm gonna put this onto you, just sew us own wax. For me, it makes me feel like it was more staged than it was uh actual reality, it was staged. Will was the only one night in on the joke, was the only one and on the joke he was on noting on the joke the slap to me, for me,

this is just my opinion. And then you know, like I said, I told you what I felt it could be in his defense, if it's real, like I said, he's battling with something that I read in his book. Uh, but no, it was literally no move movement from security. Uh, Chris Rock standing with his hands behind the back. The slap was so perfect. I don't think he thought he was going to slap him, all right, Yeah, why would you? I would have never thought will Smith Smith walk on it?

I don't even if I cracked the joke about Jaden, I don't think he would have slapped me. I just I think that's why I know it was in stage, because everything about it was carried out in a way where people was like, let's just go with it. That's to me where it kind of happened, because like we're walking up, I thought he thought he was going to say something to him, or he was gonna playfully push him,

you know, like boy and that ship. Because I can tell Chris's expression after like that, this motherfucker just slapped me. And then when we went back to a seat and he was like, keep my motherfucking white name at your out your mom, Like, oh my god, this dude, is this is a lot. This ain't just as that wasn't that one joke. Oh you know he was you know, a couple of people said that, you know, and and somebody asked me. They was asking me, like, why do

you think they didn't escort him mode. I'm like, he's winning the biggest award of the night right and you know, it wasn't a it wasn't a scuffle. It was really something that happened instantly where even with the delay, I'm sure the oscars had to say like, huh, what do we do because I know that they dropped the audio after. So he was so cold that he got slapped, didn't even protect his phase, do nothing. He just got slapped. I'm not gonna lie. That slap was lightning fast. That

mother slapped him like Mohammad, he throw right hand. I'm saying, so, I think there was a moment after Yeah, that motherfucker's like he turned fast, and I think there was a moment where Chris thought to himself because like damn, like I need to rush this nigga, and he's like the biggest state, trust me, Pete, trust me. Something went through his mind about I need to rush this nigga right now,

because that's how we think. He ain't no different. I'm gonna suck what Oscar statusy has been in I can fuck what nobody say. He's a negro, and something in him said this nigga got me fucked up. That something happened, and at that moment, so whatever decision was made, it was done either in some level of for him. I think specifically he just understood the moment he said, Okay,

you know what, I'm gonna work this down now. I'm sure he's somewhere wishing I need to tell this nigger head off, but I think at that moment he wasn't thinking like that. I think he just kind of I didn't expect him. Even when I saw him walking up, I thought it was staged before I saw it was like a man stage. Ma ain't no way this man Jill walk up on stage and slapping. Because I'm sure if you're like the security and Will Smith is walking on stage, you're not gonna trip you, Will Smith. This

is part of the gag, you know. And I'm sure if you, Chris Rock, you think like, man, man, what are you walking up there? Oh? Like he was gonna say, like whisper like it was like, and then Will stood there for a minute, and then Will stood there for a minute, and like, just in case you need you needed this, you can get this right now. So I just think it was pete. Ye're you're not used to

nigger moments. I mean that it happened in front of everybody. Yeah, But I just unless I have just a complete misconception of Chris life, I just don't think that he's got any you gotta miss concession Chris, then that's fair. That's what I'm facing that I'll be honest. I'll be honest right meeting him before and pretty much most comedians I know with the bullshit. I don't really know comedians that

are not with the bullshit. Like like if this was fifteen years ago and it's mac Boy, if that's Bertie, yeah, that's been different he had. Like I said, I've just said, if it's Max, they're closing the Obscars down, the Oscar will be remote, hop off the stage, you go. It's gonna take a lot to get Bertie mad and Steve Hard even DL Hughley like, like, I I agree with the whole Kanye stuff. With this d L Hugley, I think DL Hughley saying like he's he's uh what he's

stalking her, that's just not there. She feels no imminent danger. That's not true. Now a man trying to get back with his wife, feel mean, why they was trying at that time. Him putting out all the stops is what you're supposed to do if you want your wife and your family back. They got four children, and you're supposed to want your wife and you just you invested, you have invested that much time and energy into this. Later, you know, I get it. You're going to put out

all stops. You're gonna send trucks. That's not harassment, it's not and it's not stalking because she never ever has been afraid of Kanye. She's not afraid of Kanye. Right. So even D L. Hughley, even though I don't agree with him with this Kanye ship, I know some niggas that funk with deal. Some real ge niggas like my old g RMI from families from Inglewood Family Blood Gang, like that's that boy and that way all some street ships sometimes so comedians and R and B singers are

most likely with the ship. So I'm sure Chris Rock has matured in a lot of ways, know what I'm saying. But somewhere in New York, that nigga is walking around his apartment thinking, I need to figure out how to get a faith with this dude, whether or not he's worried about winning or losing slight something, and so they're trying to FINM sure Will. Will is such a honorable type of guy who focused his life on trying to be honorable and find honorable places. They've already talked or

he's already reached out. Now, Chris strikes me as a kind of personal He might not take the call I bet you had and then when I see you or I don't know, but I think there has been some type of contact. At this point, they'll be in a movie. I hope, So, I hope, so, I hope, so, I hope they do go go in the backyard and lock up. I genuinely hope Chris and Will go in the backyard

and and just lock up. You know what I mean, five minutes, just get cracking, you know what I mean, Win or lose, it don't matter, you know, get your respect back because long, Yeah, but it's gonna be a lot of wrestling in the situation. Ain't gonna be a lot of may be wrestling. You know, somebody got a holst miney the headline for a minute and be me and you're trying to do this and you're talking to that's part of the five minutes. That's part of the

five minutes. So I hope they go in the backyard and you know, scuff it up and work out their little issues and come and you know, have Jad to come o over there, cook some cue with something. Y'all just sit back and get your ship together. So y'all don't even embarrass us in front of your wife, folks, no more. But I'm not mad at y'all for embarrassing us in front of your wife. Folks. I get it. Sometimes it's like what it is. But I hope they go back there and work out their issues and not

just talk about it. You know, get a little physical lett physical. It's cool with if somebody, you know, if you you know, it's all right, I think we're gonna slap your well will came slap. Somebody said that me and still was talking about it, right, They still say, he said glasses. I said, I would understand if I have made a joke about Jada and we would have walked up there and slap, he said, Man, be honest, gee,

we're the fun well up here to jump up. They would have been dragging us out that it would have stopped with the MTV or works out have been regretting stopping him out. Fucking well, wire you you gotta take him on the shoulder or spinning in a helicopter like the intro. But I love both of them, brother to see that he take he lined up. So so my my thing is, I think we're looking at a situation with multiple people coming into a point and exploding. And

that was a really small exploded. It wasn't nothing like I'm tired of. I think it means something because it was in front of him on the oscar like thestar Steam versions of assholes who didn't own slaves and the States and ship like that, but like there's some civilized group and it's like now, like you know, sometimes sh happened. I think they dealt with it really well. I think Chris Rockdale was it like a professional. I think Will

Smith really regretted. I trust me. When that adrenaline came out of Will Smith and he and you know Jada, that that looked went away where she started looking like oh my god, you know, because she knows what that means she know that what that could do to careers. So I think when they're dreaming and fleet and she kind of was like oh, and he looked. He was like, she gotta get called. How fucking goddamn funny you said,

know what it does or careers? Would it be if Will's next features like a supporting we're all in a Steve Harvey movie, Oh my god, that would be awesome. I feel like I'm mad. We haven't seen a Will and Denzil movie. Like if I ever know, if I see them too, nigga, I'm gonna don't we have a movie? What you do? Niggas? That's the thing and comedian wise, that's why Eddie Murphy is my favorite and will always be hard to talk because Eddie went out his way

to make them. Yeah, how don't we have a Kevin Hart Eddie Murphy him, How don't we have a Cat Williams having hard film? Like eventually you find bridges and you put on for the culture, like Harder Knights is one of Eddie Murphy's most underrated and greatest achievements. Yeah, it's not. It's not about is it the greatest film? Because it's a great film. In my books, my second favorite.

But it's not about that. It's about you take that much generation, you take that many generations and comedian and put them together and you put on that's what. And there's comedians like Seinfeld. If you watch Seinfeld and really like it's all comedians that he brings on for every episode and like most of them have their careers blow up after that. Like I can't tell you how much ship people who started on Seinfelder on and like Adam Sander has everybody who's ever been on Saturday Life on

every fucking moviek he's ever done, he put on. Yeah. So I feel like I feel like we don't put enough pressure on people like Kevin Hart to put on the only he brought on Tiffany, that's it. He retired,

he brought on Tiffany equipped. No, he did put it on, but no. But it's like we have to demand more, you know, we have to demand more from And I think we're getting into the space where individual success without having to you know, do right by by sad community or set examples for sad community is starting to fall by the wayside, where we're starting to celebrate in our community individual wealth too much. But I'll never see y'all celebrate some white man getting rich anyway he got rich,

I don't give a funk. We celebrate individual success, right, and we celebrate it because we believe that it's sets a standard for the rest of people to believe that it could happen to them. But if you don't actually do your Eddie Murphy, where you got your Harlem Nights like a comedian like Chris Rock Kevin Hard because Chris Rock did. Chris Rock has a decent couple of movies like that. But I just feel like you don't have

enough of that, what I'm saying. And I think it does come down to us not putting enough pressure on on our community to perform. I think there's a lot of factors that could complain to that. I mean, I think you could look at a lot of movies that feature like a singular black actor or a singular black comedian, and look who the production houses. You know it, really

it comes down to it. They might be like, look, we're not gonna let you bring an entire black cash through the door here of nobody upstarts because we can't market it. Now it becomes an urban film and we can't pay you thirty million dollars for an urban film and get r o Y's probably what the production financial apparatus is thinking. We can surround you by mainstream white names and throw you out in the middle of it and get our money back. That's that's that's hypothetical, but

one of the real one of the main roadblocks. But I need to hear desire of it, man, I need to believe you wanted to happen. Like like, I don't think the journey for black folks in America is complete to where we can be like, oh, we're just American. It's all good. It still needs to be a level of like, Okay, we're together. We're trying to get where we're trying to get as a complete community to where we do have it right, where it's just up to you.

I mean it's up to you and making your own achievements happen, versus where it's like, you know, we're still needing each other every minute. I mean, like we need each other still. We still don't like a couple of us don't, but we all need each other. If I'm not here to help Uncle move to his podcast, maybe he doesn't take a podcast. Serious, if me and you don't meet, maybe you're not doing those sellings with me,

you know what I mean? Like like if we don't put on and I don't want to just now I say the black community because we all grow up together. I mean me and you, we have a great relationship food, Like you know, we've been knowing each other over ten years. So it's like, you put on what your people, no't matter what they look like. But that don't mean you don't put on for your people. Still that makes sense.

I don't Last night with the slap, you know what, We rescued the oscars because it was a felling, fucking program. That's what I said. We rescued from failing program to a felon program. The camera slab, Yeah, soldiers, that's that white people see that is so dramatic. That's a comedian. Now, if he shot him in the leg, I'll be with you, like now, glasses would have been thing. That shooting been a leg. Look, you hit a guy who's fifty plus years old a hundred and thirty five pounds in the

head like that. He could suffer long term next dam but you've never cover from that. A white comedian ship you and fucking Jerry Field. That bullshit, A good old American slap. That's an American slap is what was needed to save the Oscars. The Oscar was on every new channel and it was exciting people. Matt next year might watch the Oscars Like, hold, somebody might get slapped next year. You know for sure, You know you can only market red Carpet Cleveland for so long. We're looking out for
