Episode 215 "The Takeova"

I always think it's cool. I think it's great how they highlighted all genres of music. You know, you had country, pop, rock, R and B hip. Hate on Harry Styles, I can't hate on him. Even though I wanted to be once to win, I want to be on the win to Harry Styles had a good album, arguably the one of the biggest. Okay, so let's let's uh, let's cener this. What was we gonna do? The good, bad and ugly?

So what was your good? Hip Hop fifty? Yeah? Hip Hop hip Hop fifty was decade felt it felt good to watch that and it came out of nowhere when Missy Elli came out. I was like feeling it. He was mea we getting lit tonight. I felt like it was the night to get it if he was black, like all the black artists like really showed up and showed that we really took over the Grammys. We really, we really did. You know. One thing that I think

is super dope. I love how they had the round table of you know, regular people from different cities and gave them they take on who they think should win the war. You know. That was they were showing a profession and you know what city that they from and

stuff like that. One of the dope parts that I liked about the Grammys is when that old lady went what Trevor was like, yo, Harry Styles was right over there, but he was like, listen, you gotta stay over here because I don't want to, you know, attack a granny. And then when he won the Album of a Year and she presented him the award and gave him a hug,

I thought that was really dope. No did a phenomenal He did a great look for nerves, like because sometimes you know, we get nervous when you do media and you host things like that. He looked like he was completely comfortable. He did a phenomenal job. And his joke for I love Lizzo, I love how her energy. Man, Like the Grammys was lit. They had wine. They go like Kendrick Martin on stages. What was the thing because

Black China had on. It wasn't that. I don't know what was gonna have something on and um maybe their stylas was just all friends. Okay, I don't know what the thing was, but it wasn't with Black China had on. Because one time for off setting Cardi, they had a upset outfit was fired. Off set was fly, he was flying. He was fired. He got set. You off set down, Cardi, Now out you know what I'm saying. You already ain't know you know some about you got on point where

you want. Everybody had that that drip of man shout out to everybody's stylish future brother's daughter. That was dope. That was that was a dope statement. Yea yeah, man. Let's just go on down the list. Beyonce, she broke the Grammy All Time records, so succes for that. She still has never one album of the Year. That of course went to Harry styles Man Beyonce can't have everything. Yeah, she got thirty two. I mean, where where do you put those? But she probably got multiple house, probably got

a trophy room, like a trophy room. She had one of the most wins that night. Kendrick Bamar also had three wins. Shout out to the legend man, he is my favorite. Um Dj Khalid concluded the Grammys by performing god Dude song in History. I think it's like eight minutes, right, and they performed the whole they so did the whole thing. I didn't I didn't know how long. Jay z Versus was four minutes. I believe that these verses four minutes.

His verse was long uninterrupted interruptions. Did you guys get interrupted? Because we live in Atlanta and yeah, so I was so. I was mad about that because I thought it was YouTube TV and I went to Twitter and everybody. They just but listen, I think that, you know, they gotta make their money, you know what I'm saying. They're probably going a little bit over over on time, So they had to get them commercials in. Yeah, that that that

wasn't right subrupt us. They could have interrupted anything else, but did they want to interrupt? Man, come on, y'all. Dr dre shout out to him. He won the Global Impact Award and it's gonna be named after him. Yeah, shout out to Dr dre Man. I hosted um, I hosted his Grammy's party. Dr Dre's a cool guy. I got a funny story too. I didn't know yourself real because you you You flew to l a Ya, flew to l As to a couple of parties and came back. Yeah yeah I was. I was in and out like

It was Start studied his grammy party, man uh Ussher, uh Young Miami, Chris Brown, Fabio four and Little Need. The skate ring party. Yeah, so they built they actually built the skating ring, and I found out the skating ring is black owned. So they built an entire skating ring in this big as venue and man it was, it

was funny. I was watching people bust their ass. Jake shout out to mixed mass of David j D was there. But I got a funny story. I got a funny story. So they got me my own uh you know, green room and everything, got everything on my writer. You know. I was like, I was like, damn, I feel special. Um So I was backstage right, I was going to my dress room to get a little bit more licked, you know what I'm saying before I started hosting. And guess who I ran into Paul McCartney from the Beatles.

Did you take a picture? Wait? Wait? Wait? So I ran it to Paul McCartney. I was like, I've seen him, you know how, like when you see somebody really big and like you kind of like it was like, yeah,

it was like I was. I was walking and I was like and then he looked at me, and I'm looking at him, and then about I pull out my phone to get a picture because no. A woman jumps out of her dress room and said, oh my god, this Paul McCartney, I love you, jumps on this man's shoulder and takes a pitch and I was like, met of your moment, messed up my moment and and he and you could tell he knew that. I was like, oh my god, that was probably the first time I've

ever been starstruck. I was like, that's a big deal. Bron I was like, oh my, you still didn't get a chance after she you had to go. I didn't see him. It was it was honestly, it was so many people in there that like, honestly, it was so many celebrities in there, like everybody was just regular. Floyd Mayweather was there, everybody was there. It was just like every time you turn around, there's a different you know,

celebrity and stuff like that. But when I was backstage, that was like my first time like one on one with somebody because everybody, you know, they had all their friends and family and stuff. But I was I was definitely like the first time that I've ever been starstruck. And you know, I met Dr Dre Jimmy Iveen, Um, you're getting another chance because you hope, Yeah, I hope. So that's not even meet the that was big. I was like, I was like, oh ship and this girl

she didn't even like hesitation. She literally jumped on it. And you can tell the security was about the karate chopper ass did you know the girl? It was? It was it was just it was just a random girl. She was coming out to my dress room. Got it? Yeah, Okay, speaking of backstage, quai Vo and Offset allegedly got into a fight at the Grammys. Then this audio leaked or video leaked of Cardi b Um, those are both my

guys I got. I got a hell of love for the me girls uh uh an emotional time and their careers. The beginning my career. I had a first and relationship with these guys, and I love both of them. I'm sad. I do hope that they work it out, um, but I do know that they you know, they weren't feeling the vibe with each other before take off taken away from us. So this is not new. May seem new to people, but this is actually what has been going on, you know. And it was just you know, it was

just a verbal I feel like they're gonna get it together. Yeah, they're gonna get their family man families. You know that's unfortunately they're you know, they're famous. So you know our arguments that we haven't you know, with our cousins. And she cuts the ass out. She cuts the ass out like a real supposed to and did take sides say both of y'all are wrong, said may say that's my brother. We ain't fight. They did what they supposed to just family.

You know. It's just unfortunately that you know, they got cameras, you know, and they facing you know. I just wanted to fix it though. Yeah, that was one of the ugly moments of the Grammys. Um. Another bad moment of the Grammys. UM, I think the bad moment for me was the disruption um during the fifties. He was like, why y'all gotta slide in the commercial breaks because you're in the moment, and then all of a sudden commercial

you're no. Yeah, that it did bother me too. Good bad, ugly Grammys, y'all, let us know what y'all think of the comments. Moving right along, Baby blew up Pretty Ricky released from prison. That boy, that was exactly what the Drew Skis kid that my dog got out. And then you seen you seen Pleasure P got here on here a live first of all, Pleasure Pe crazy shout out a Pleasure P bad that's my dog. Pleasure P was on live and he was promoted his single. Man, y'all,

y'all make sure you gonna check out my single. Yeah, yeah, it's like, yo, y'all check out single. Baby Blue walks out of prison. You know, it's exactly wrong in the comments. But I believe that blue one to a prep to jail for p PP five billion dollar fraud. Yeah he did that. Boy only did it a year. Ship, I do a year about twenty five of them things. I

know that. I know he's now. Listen, man, everybody don't get off that easy because because the dude hush Puppy to do I think his name was hush Puppy to dude that was in Dubob. Yeah, the African guy that was. You know, depends on what you do, though, right, and how you're made. I don't. I don't know how that ship works. I just know I ain't risking my freedom. Months I think he did ten months. No, No, he just no, he did. He didnaby blew he would send

this to twenty months in prison. After pleading guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit wyre froug last December, he was accused of filing fact loan applications to obtain the PPP funds. He received more than twenty four million as a result of this scam. Um he had to pay it back. Hell pretty sure there was some type of probably stipulation, just like he probably has probably came home to a ten million piece. That's just kind of wait, wait,

wait now, what did you say? It's conspiracy? Right, So conspiracy is different. Conspiracy is that we think you did it, but we ain't got no proof that you did it, got it. That's probably why I probably is the we have proof that you did and you can do the eight teen years there you go. Conspiracy is just like hey man, and you know he probably took a plea deal. They probably like, boy, with your own conspiracy whatever you like.

We ain't got no evidence only but we think you're doing some ship illegally from the little evidence that was wise. So he got caught on the little on the wire thing, I believe. But in his defense he said that he was um, he was he was actually scammed into doing that because he said he has somebody that approached him, that approached multiple is true. This is true. People weren't doing that because I'm not gonna lie like like people who do your taxes for you if they can, they

can the whole thing. So it probably was him in the tax preparer or whoever, because it was it was people like sending out emails and text messages and d M s and stuff like this. I said, man, I ain't about doing that. That's first. If anything called a p PP that sounds illegal to me. If you ain't doing your business right now. I can understand if you have an establishment with employees and you use it because p p P was originally to cover the overhead of

your losses. So if you owned, you know, restaurant, use a small business on you on the restaurant and you can't financially take care of your payrolls and stuff like that, it was just put you back on. You put employees so you don't lose your business. But people were just starting, you know, they would just start doing that. People are just starting LLC's and say, hey, you know, I got fifty employees and I got a trucking company. They feel

I feel like they're still grabbing people. They are definitely still yeah people as we'll be right back with more of the Baller Alert Show. It is time for players ball. I'm a fowler. Guys here about Shannon Sharp and his thoughts about John Moran. Do you know who John Moran is? Of course I do. He's the point guard for the Grizzlies. Okay, now, did you see he was pointing a little laser at the little referees. And I didn't see nothing. You didn't

see that. I just heard, Okay, allegations that his friend group utter threats against Pacers staff and supporters last weekend. After an investigation from the league, it was revealed that there was no evidence of any threats. However, one of Moran's friends was bad from the FedEx Forum for a full year. That's right here man too, that got banned. Damn, that's the best friend. This is what Shannon Sharp had

to say. You got all two million dollar contract and you want people in the NBA to thank you hood because you roll with these type of people from you putting yourself in hard way when you don't have to. So this is what I don't like. I don't like how there's no evidence, right, there's no evidence whatsoever that you know he did the laser, the laser point, the laser and all this stuff. And then Shannon Sharp and

just goes in on this man, calling him a thug. Well, well, this also stems from remember they had words at the Laker game. He had when he went violent for his Cardikan sweater right put on screen. Okay, remember that they had words. So there's already a little beef going on. Yeah, but the up he made up with his daddy and it's gonna stay on wax, I don't think. So he

went in on his ass. Now, one thing that I do agree, Wait, one thing that I do agree is that if you're worth two hundred million dollars, you shouldn't have any negative people around you, anybody that's gonna wear you down, anybody that's gonna have your name in some bullshit. Because let me tell you something, if I was worth two hundred million dollars, a lot of people getting cut off, a lot of people. I'm brand new, brand new, my bank account brand new, I'm brand new, brand new, beat

tea and brand new. But I'm gonna have some rules. There's gonna be some rules to ben be rules and stipulations, you know what I'm saying, Like, you gotta have people around you that look at you, asked the bag, and a lot of times people get the bag and they still have the baggage with them. And that's the problem if you work two hundred million dollars, but you shouldn't

be having these type of people around. But I understand John mored came out with a statement and saying that you know, there was no evidence that that that happened, so we don't know. Okay, uh trade deadline. Lebron says he's disappointed that the Lakers didn't land Kyrie. Kyrie went to the Mavericks. I'm excited to see how him and Luca Danche. I'm not played together. I'm not that's gonna be a good first Luca. First of all, Luca plays

similar to Lebron. He's just a non athletic version of Lebron. Bro First of all, Kyrie is leaving, and after this, it's a kid in Mark Cuban. Mark Cuban's gonna tighten them up. Man. There's nothing to leave if they offer him to bag and he should be on best behavior because he's gonna want a three to four year deal. He gone, were you gonna do? He's going to the Lakers. Why would he not go to the Lakers? His contract is up the end of this year. Huh. I don't think.

I don't think the Lakers can afford him number one, number two, three to four year deal because they can't afford him. They have they still have to deal away Russell Westbrook if he gone. If they deal, he go. Okay, if you say so, he go. If he's not gonna will give away a kid. Need to have this man, Kyrie Irving time out. But legally if they have all the money on their books with the Russell Westbook trade, which is why they probably didn't land Kyrie because of

all that. First of all, No, they didn't land Kyrie because first of all, Lebron put that team together. No, they didn't. They didn't land Kyrie number one because it was too much baggage from the Russell west Brook trade. And Dallas have more to offer the Nets then the Lakers. But you want to know why Dallas got Kyrie. They got Kyrie because the GM of the Brooklyn Nets, the GM of the Brooklyn Nets, said I'm going to send him anywhere but the Lakers. Okay, he was Hayden, Yeah,

should Yeah, should have went to Miami. He put out a statement and said, I'm gonna see him anywhere, but the Lakers. First of all, why would you send him somewhere that he wants to go if you're an owner. No, I don't want to send him somewhere that he wants to go. I'm gonna send him to the best deal in the return on my investment. That's why I said the Dallas Mavericks had the most offered to him, because he got They got all these first round draft picks

and some good players. Uh what's his name, didn't witty, he's good, and a couple other players they got good. But they already sent them off. Okay, they said, they said they sent them off to Brooklyn. But Kyrie, I'm gonna tell you, Kyrie is gonna leave after this season. He's gonna leave. They're gonna try to offer him a crazy deal, and Lebron gonna say, man, come on on the Papa, I know you want to years in the league. He gonna of course play with us. He want another ring,

he want one more ring. And he could think Lebron with five rings is good. Speaking of Lebron, Lebron did hit the all time record. He's the leading scorer. He is the greatest or ever. He is the greatest of all time. Todd of y'all playing with Lebron name, he is the greatest of all times. And I hate when we do the Jordan's is better because I don't think the level of competition Jordan had was as much as

lebron Um and he had six rings. He didn't lose in six championships, so the argument is there, But hell, Bill Russell has eleven chips. Well let's do it on the same playing field. Michael Jordan's was Michael Jordan of his error. This is Lebron's error. He's the greatest of this era. And that's what people is the greatest of all time. I think he's got a Lebron fan. I

think he's the greatest of all. I'm a Lebron fan because, first of all, if you look at a lot of things that lebron On has accomplished off the court is something that a lot of athletes have never accomplished. The man built school, accomplished the man built his own damn school. Yes, the man has a sports agent. There are all five of his friends are still run all of his companies. And I loved that about him. I saw that clip.

That was dope. I wish I wish more because I've been following him because we graduate high school the same time. So I remember he came straight out of high school and went straight to the league, and people was clolling him for having his homeboy as his agent. Uh. He was just saying, and they were just homeboys at that particular moment, but he never hired anybody show people in position, and then you know they're looking out for him as

he's looking out for them. They still did a good job too, so they all should be like Maverick Uhu and all those guys. They did a great job. They still had to perform at a at a good you know clip, because they really had to do a good job of it. You know what I had. I had a conversation the other day with about right. I said, y'all had a conversation with about this, and we we we always you know, going going at each other on

chats and you know, stuff like that. And I was like, I was like, listen, man, if more entertainers, if y'all put your friends in position, then y'all would not have to worry about your friend asking you for money, asking you for this, because that's how you spread the wealth. You know what I mean. If you look at somebody like jay Z, all of jay z friends are rich, all of them. That was named Dash's motto, though, like you know, just don't have just one person making everything happen.

You know, you put your other people on so that you know, if one falls short, you've got somebody to lean on, exactly. And people don't understand that that that logic. So the conversation that we was having was, you know, he was saying that, you know, well some people, You put some people in position, and some people can't handle being in that position. So I so I get gave him um an example. He said, some people don't know how to do business, And I gave you an example.

I said, some people have to learn how to do business, but they have to be in that position in order to do that. It's people get hard at new jobs every day that don't know how to do that position. But guess what they say, I'm gonna learn how to do this position because we give problem examples, say Ferrari is an asshole, Ferrari is a jerk, and people don't want to deal Ferrari. If Ferrari managed Taylor Swift, do you think they still not gonna call Ferrari? It's like

a shot call how business was working. So he put himself in college, and I believe he put his friends in there too, so that they can learn and they can do it themselves instead of having to uh rely on other people. Yeah, I think that's really dope. I also think it's really dope. Shout out to me Zi.

I think it's really dope. How you know twenty one Savage has had you know, a manager that was once a promoter in Atlanta and kind of stick stick together because you you see a lot of times you lead artists no go ahead, they will go their separate ways when they get astronomically big. And I want to say salute the twenty one Savage salute, the meazy salute, the red push because means he is always pushing the initiatives,

you know, put your folks on. So I agree about out to like because some people can't handle that responsibility. You know, you gotta kind of know your friends and you know, you know if they're really gonna be about trying to do something versus you know, just being They could be selfish, you know what I'm saying. They could

fall short or be lazy. You know, you just gotta know where your friends are before you can just It's also true because if you'd be some greedy situations will will make you lose some money or put some legal situations. I was just trying to make the I was just trying to make the statement of look when you when you established artists, Bro, anybody can manage you. Yeah, anybody could manage Beyonce not not saying that on the level

of she's on. I'm saying that people people are gonna like if you manage somebody like beyond say, people are gonna call your phone. You don't have to reach out to nobody to do no deal, you know what I mean? And that was that was the conversation that I was having.

I was like, Bro, when when artists get to a certain level, I don't understand why when they reach a certain level of success they abandoned their team or they all management and stuff like that, some like in the entertainment period or in any in any walk of life period. But some of them do that because you got people like Ludacris who had the same manager exactly one time for Ludicrous and one time for to Change um techs Tech and that was his DJ and Tech is his

right hand man them. We'll be right back with more of the Baller alert y'all message. It is now time for baller mail. Dear Baller team. I got into a car accident with my side check in my girlfriend's car, so I'm kind of stuck in a weird play. My car is in the shop for a few more days. My car was in the shop for a few more days, so I've been taking my lady to work every day

in her car. Well, I scooped up my side check for a quick lunch day on her side of town, and just my luck, we got into a car accident. So my little side booth feels like we should tell my lady about what's going on and the accident. I'm like, hell, no, that ain't smart or safe. She disagreed and had an attitude after I dropped her back home. I'm sliding to school my main lady up. But I'm paranoid now because I don't know what type of side, what type of

time my side chick is on. It's been a few days and I ain't heard from my side check, and my main lady has been acting weird lately. What y'all think insurance is getting the car fixed? I just got my whip out, but I'm paranoid as hell. I need y'all opinions a sad please. I don't think that she's telling I think that he's just paranoid. And when you become paranoid, any emotion that you feel is in a regular emotion. You donna get a little scared. What I

think you should do? First of all, man, you gotta cut the side chick off a sap. You got a blocker on Instagram, blocker number, blocker on all social media. You gotta leave alone, man, because you're a little bit upset. And one thing about it. When we get upset, they get the talking. And the one thing you don't want her to do is tell your main chick what just happened. So, in my opinion, I think you should block it. You

did the ultimate. No, no, my boy, you got into an accident with your side chick and your kit car d How careless are you? I think you in trouble. You in big trouble. Yeah, if she hasn't told, she's gonna find a way to tell it, possibly down the line too, so you can mess around and maybe not give you your your main check up. Get married and still got this circulating out there that hasn't never been addressed.

She can see y'all together for family oriented out she'd be like, and she just walked up to you all and be like I was in the car when he got into the accident. Oh boo boo boo boo boopoo A big fella, this is tough. This is this is kind of Sardine's right here. This is this is bullshit. I ain't gonna con I'm scared for you. I don't know what to tell you to do. I do think if you're gonna be with this lady, you should just

tell her. You should tell her. Damn, you already paranoid, so that means you're scared because you will tell her. She's gonna leave your ass. It might be a rap for you, might lose your side chick and your main chick big dog, and you're being callless. She may leave, she may not, but one things for show, two things for certain. You always gonna hear about it if she don't leave. Now, on the bright side, Sai could have been like, you know what, this is too much. I'm

off of him. Bump him. That's what I'm saying. That's what you might as well. Go on blocks. It could be done. Damn, I think y'all should leave a state. No, yeah, yeah, yeah. In that situation, you gotta be like baby I'm about to get a new job out of town. Ain't nobody going nowhere, especially eggs and Oh I think you should lead town. I think you should get apply for a job in a different state. Man, I'll run into each other and your family got up. He's gonna feel a

way and say something. That's so you should just tell her to get it out the way. Don't tell her you got a blocker, man, you just blocker. Listen. First of all, she side chick find out that she's blocked, she's probably gonna go crazy, make it worse. You can make a fake no no, you got know you got a blocker, and then go into hiding. So don't go to another spots that you normally Yeah it is because listen, Tom heals all wounds. Okay, yes to do, Yes to do?

Not an accident with your side chick and your main chick. Calm, but listen, if man, first of all, just can't be mad forever. Man, you gotta get over. I'm scared both of them gonna be mad. But I just feel like he should just tell his girlfriend and get it out the way. And uh, you know they faced the head on. How How far are you into this? Relationship. You need to DM me back because if it's everything is kind of new, you should fall back from everybody and reset

and find somebody different. And don't do that till them because after you get the car fixed. But if he's driving the car, then it's probably somebody that trust me. Why are you driving? He said his car was in the shop temporarily. Sure it was. Then he got his out of the shop. Sure, man, but you can't be driving your girl car. Man, just a Vavid boy. I ain't gonna cap let's get into some pep talk. For this pep talk, I'm gonna do black history facts. It's
