Speaker 1:Hello, ladies and gentlemen, I am Faddie Shay. You're listening to Season of a Cloud. This is a Thursday, the 16th of 2023, cause I always think about the future and the possibility of somebody from the future Hearing me, and they want to know the date of when they heard this very cool gentlemen speak. We have a very interesting episode today. I'm gonna talk about a lot of things that I did last week. I have my second interview, video interview. I dropped that on YouTube.
Speaker 1:That was a lot of fun and a bit of a challenge as I take a sip of the coffee early on into the podcast. It was a Into the episode. I mean, it was a bit of a challenge. It was, um, it was tough. I had some mistakes in there, but let's give it up for Season of a Cloud. That is the round of applause that I like to hear. That I like to hear. That I like to hear. This is like my 69th episode. I started this back in 2020 and then I took a long ass break, but this is my 69th episode. 69th, it's a freaking number. I enjoy a good 69. I spent a good 69 of uh, 69 minutes of 69-ing. But yeah, last week I had a fantastic episode.
Speaker 1:I had a co-worker and a very intelligent marketing guy by the name of JT Holmes in here and he talked about his clothing line that he pushed to great levels in a short amount of time. His clothing line is modern rock star and he did a lot of dope things. It was a very dope interview. The funny thing is that you can go listen to the episode right now Audio. It's an hour and 40 minute audio, which is an eternity, a fucking eternity. What the who talks for that long? My man's a coffee jug Listen, chugs. It Chugs the coffee. He was going. He's the different type of energy. Different type of energy. His energy is, you know, equal to you know. He was back in like the 1600s day To burn him at the stake, because what type of energy do you have To talk for an hour and 40 minutes? Listen, that's my Listen. That's a cool motherfucker and his clothing line is dope, but he was pushing the red. I got a laptop to worry about. He was going and he was going. So we talked about a lot of things and guess what I did After we finished Hour and 40 minutes, the video was going to be an hour and 40 minutes.
Speaker 1:I'm working on it. I'm editing. Now, remember, I don't have the skills. I learn these things and some of A lot of the apps will hold your hand and help you through these processes, but I learn these things. This is not something that I went to school for. I dabble, I'm a dabbler and I'm starting to pick up an interest for video editing. So you know, I'm editing the videos. An hour and 40 minutes worth of work. I'm doing what I'm supposed to be doing, you know. And my laptop is a Mac M1 Got it in 2021.
Speaker 1:It's two years, about to be three years old. Happy birthday to my Mac. I don't know when, the exact day I bought it, but I'm sure it was a happy birthday About to be three years in 2024, right. So it wasn't cheap. I mean it wasn't top of the line at the time, but it wasn't cheap. It was about $17,000. I spent about $17,000. Now you know what. I might spend a little bit more on that, maybe close to $2,000, someone around that but it wasn't cheap. You know what I'm saying and I'm editing. I'm running out of space. You know Now my boy, craig Visions. He knows all about this Rendering videos and how long it takes, how much space is going to jam up, and I've heard the complaints about it and I used to do music, you know.
Speaker 1:So I've always known about the space and how much space you need and your hard drive acting a fool and you're trying to find things to delete. It's a fucking headache. It's a monstrous headache that is hard to remove Because there's no proper Tylenol For that type of headache. You must focus in, figure out what to delete so you get the space. So here I am Working on this hour and 40 minute video. I'm inside a cap cut, the desktop cap cut, because Lord knows if I had put that shit in my phone and I've done some editing in my phone and that thing got to moving slower than a 90 year old woman Inside of all these in the Midwest. That shit, that's not the move.
Speaker 1:But so I'm starting to edit, I'm editing. I was like my laptop is telling me fam, you have no space bro, you have no space, we can't. You can't render this, you can't export this. This is not going to work out. So I'm like, okay, let's go in there, let's try to find some of the old videos, let's try to find some clips, some Files, some photos. Let's try to empty space Because I haven't bought an external hard drive. I know what the geeks and the nerds are going to tell me you don't have any hard drives, bro. I haven't bought any hard drives, bro. Just listen to the story, try not to judge, right. So I'm looking for things to edit. I mean to delete, right. I go in, I see some things, I go into the settings, I go into general, I go into the storage. I see I'm like, okay, cool, there's some big ass 7 gig videos. There's some 2 gigs, some 3 gigs, one gig, I delete. Ah man, I delete. I'm going to give the koala Because I delete and I delete and what happens is I delete the hour and 40 minute video.
Speaker 1:Now, kind thing of my Mac. My Mac goes, my Mac goes. Hey man, this is something you can't undo. Are you sure you want to delete? Is that what you want to do? Are you positive? I say yeah, man, I know what I'm doing. I need to get some space so I can finish this video Right. More sips of coffee coming right now.
Speaker 1:Okay, it doubles down. It says are you sure it doesn't actually double down? I do my head, I double down. Okay, did I make sure I got everything correct? Is this looking good? I'm not delineating anything important. Did I need? It's like Naw man, it looks good. This is a whole video. You should be able to go ahead, knock them things out and you get back to work.
Speaker 1:Yes, I deleted, deleted the actual hour and minute Hour and 40 minute video. Yeah, I did it. I did it. Yeah, man, yeah, did I look for the bleach? I look for the bleach. I look for it. I look for the drain. Oh, I looked at, I thought about is it possible to mix the bleach with the drain? Oh, and maybe get a flavor that is is is acceptable for me to swallow and I can just fucking die? Is that possible? Yeah, because what the fuck? An hour, a minute hour I can't keep saying hour, minute hour and 40 minute video that I had somebody come over record we talk great conversation and it's just gone.
Speaker 1:And then I went and I got like disc, disc, a drill, and I'm trying to find the video somewhere in the hard drive, somewhere in there. It's still there. Because I'm like if I'm watching NCIS I know they can scrape and find whatever they need to find. I can do the same thing. There's got to be some technology. But then I realized I'm just a nigga in downtown Phoenix. I don't have the same type of staff money technology that the cops, the federal agents have. So I'm fucked. So I'm trying to dig, I don't find any success and I'm screwed.
Speaker 1:And JT was pumped. He was pumped, he was excited about it. He was pumped, he's pumped about the video, the video interview, because it was his first one. He's pumped, excited, can't wait for me to drop it. And I had to let him know. I didn't have the the cool ex, I was mad at the time. I don't have the cool news. I didn't have the cool in his to call him and tell him that I deleted the video.
Speaker 1:So I texted like a responsible adult. I texted it and through text I could tell that this man was destroyed, he was hurt and I, you know, he gave me some ideas Chad, gpt, all look for solutions. I already did that man. I'm not, I'm 40, but I ain't like 69. Get it how. I brought 69 about you. I said, yeah, sorry, I missed it as a drop and I did all those things, man, I tried scraping and I tried to find it. I couldn't. He was hurt, I was hurt, I was mad. I didn't do nothing for the rest of the night. For real, actually, I take that back. I did go through a power while of palting, I wanted to break my laptop, tear my TV off the wall.
Speaker 1:It's a lot of work. It's a lot of work when you don't have, like, the knowledge, the quick knowledge bang, bang, bang, bang, bang. I'm getting better, I've gotten better. I do videos in the club and I put them together and stuff like that. I got better. But when you ain't got that, bang, bang, just what you're going to do Clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap and then export, you ain't got that and you learning how to edit for YouTube and fucking long ass, fucking videos and you delete it.
Speaker 1:That shit is heartbreak and heartbreak hotel, hello, whitney, houston, heartbreak hotel. I was destroyed. I was in my feelings. But you want to know what took me out of my feelings? Call of duty, warzone, warzone took me out of my feelings. So I got my really old ass up and spend some hours playing some call of duty, bitching to Craig visions about how I massacred, massacred, massacred my video and how mad I was.
Speaker 1:So I asked JT to come back through. We did another interview, got it done. This one was shorter, thank God. So the actual audio interview I left like it's up. You can go listen to it, check it out. He drops a ton of knowledge if you're starting a clothing business, if you want to get into SEO, marketing for your social media, which I talked about in an episode or two ago, I can't remember. He goes into more detail about it. Go check it out, go listen.
Speaker 1:But I didn't take the new audio and put it up, I just took the video. So the video is up on my YouTube. You can go watch him, go to work. He's an eclectic guy, smart guy. You can go check him out and the episode was really, really dope.
Speaker 1:But that editing process, we that editing process For this video. I just did this up on YouTube. That took me. That that was I still. I still miss some things.
Speaker 1:Right now I have to do this episode, get off of this episode, mix it up For you good people that are gonna hear it, mix it up, clean it up and then I gotta post it, right. But then, right when I post it, I go right back to the video that I've worked on this hour video 55 minute 95. No, it's like an hour and five hour five minute video. I have to go back again. This is like my fifth or sixth time Going back Fixing some things, cuz I'm learning, I'm learning. Don't hate the player, hate the game, right, I'm learning.
Speaker 1:So I got to go back, Fix some things and then repost it again and remember the fucking lessons, cuz, damn, this shit ain't for the week, because every time that I render aka export, every time I Do that, it is a two-hour process, two hours. Do you know what you can do? You can't. It's so many things you can do in two hours. So every mess up has required About an hour and a half an hour and a half, two hours worth of fucking figuring out what to do while you're Ready to see the video when it's done and post it. And every time there's something wrong.
Speaker 1:And you know who's been catching it JT, cuz I told you he was excited. Dude is wired different. He's caught everything. I'm thinking I'm catching things. I'm going through him scanning. Yeah, it looks good. Okay, put the video. Okay, it looks good. Put a clip of something right there. It looks good. Put a clip there, right there, looks good. You know, sam, I'm thinking I'm catching things. I'm not, but this time, when I go back, this will be the last time that I do it and Then I will move on. I will be done.
Speaker 1:The interview is dope. It'll be cleaned up correctly. You'll be able to enjoy. You be able to learn. You'll be able to Start your own clothing line if you want, because there's enough knowledge in the in episode. You can start some things up. You can rock and roll Federal trademark things like that were talked about up in there. You know, I'm saying and I do have a new interview that I do this Friday or tomorrow with Samantha. She's the owner of Samantha's closet. It's a boutique. We'll be talking about Her work and you know what she had to do and how she came up with the name and all those things and and highlight her successes. And I'm gonna show you some of the gear in the video and all those things like that, so you can kind of see what she's doing. Go spend some money on her product, you know. Go spend some money on the gear. I'm looking forward to it and I know you will enjoy it.
Speaker 1:Now, moving on from all that stuff that went on, it was like just like a Thailand traffic Spider web worth a shit. I just went through now that that's talked about and done. Um, I don't usually. You know, I used to play a lot of music In these episodes, right, I used to drop a lot of music because I'm a music head, I love music, I love to, I love to sing, you know I'm saying. You know I'm saying I love the. You know I'm saying I love the. You know I love the same and I'm a big music guy.
Speaker 1:Right, I just put music clips. You know, all the time drops and stuff like that. And then Spotify was telling me no, no more, no more, you cannot do that, no more. And YouTube was telling me what I was putting my click no, no, no, no more. So I don't put music in here and you just have to hear me a lot. I do put some, some background music as clear. You know I'm saying so you can. You know it ain't just me rumbling tumble. You get a little a little extra something behind my talking. You get a little a little fun behind it, you know. So music.
Speaker 1:And I want to get on the fact that you know Drake had dropped Think it's for all my dogs, right, he had dropped that. I had no problem with it. You know Like I can get detailed when it comes to music. I don't have no problem with it. It's, it's Drake. You know a lot of the. The super die-hard fans Could be in a tussle Russell muscle about it, but I didn't really trip. Is what Drake does?
Speaker 1:Drake is one of three, maybe four people that's still providing an actual album, actually trying, actually caring to provide you with some quality music. It's not chasing a hit, not chasing a tiktok song, just creating music. It's gotta be refreshing to your ears, even if you're having a hard time Accepting that. You don't get the old Drake. I never got the old Kanye. I had to deal with the new Kanye. I never got the old Kanye. I accepted the new Kanye for how he was. He was still providing me with Hardcore work. That's why I appreciated them, Because he was still providing me With effort, energy, creativity.
Speaker 1:Even if there's songs you don't like, you gotta appreciate the work, the effort, the creativity. Right, because a lot of cats chase the tiktok, a lot of artists chase the tiktok. They chase the Graham song and that's what they ride they had on. But complete work is hard to find. Like I used to listen to anything that Dr Dre had his hands on, because he had a lot of work Dr Dre had his hands on because he mastered. He mastered beautifully. It always sounded amazing. There's a lot of Nettoons and Pharrell beats that I'd be like well, I don't know what the hell they were doing, but I appreciate the creativity and trying, because that those are my guys, that's my favorite producers, that's my favorite producer. Those guys put work in creativity, work, energy, trying to give you something different, trying to Trying to get you to see, see sounds, see colors your ears can have. They could jump for joy, they could go oh, what is this? This is different.
Speaker 1:Maybe there are records that hit you over time. There are a lot of songs that Jay Z had dropped back in the day I was like, hmm, this disgusting, I don't like this, this ain't what I'm about, I don't fuck with this. And I look up 20 years later I'm like you know what, jay, this is a fucking good record. Same thing with DMX. I'm from Kansas City, so anything from New York was funky to me, right. No, over time I was like, damn this nigga's really good. Damn this nigga's really good. Shit. I'm from Kansas City. Big tech, nine fan. Big tech, nine fan. There's a lot of records where I'm like you know, tech of Nina McFlo, I don't really like this. And then, years later, I'm like Damn tech.
Speaker 1:It took me that long to get Eminem's, probably one of the more, one of the one of the artists that blows my mind years later, cuz I'm like, oh, I get that punchline now, I got it, I got it, and I say it to myself. And then I realized it's embarrassing if I had set it around people who were really into lyrics, because they had already got it and I hadn't got it and I had dead music and then I had didn't really, but but that's what happened, I have a really I oh, I Hear that, I hear that and I failed you Eminem as a fan. I did not hear that. But Drake's last album was acceptable to me. It's what Drake does.
Speaker 1:You know you go to the store. You want to get some candy. They're mad. I want to get some candy, your peanut Eminem guy. Go get you some peanut Eminem. You know they're gonna taste like peanut Eminem's. They're always there, they never let you down. They don't taste. You know I'm saying like the same type of candy you would get from a dollar general. There's probably peanut Eminem's, but it tastes like I got a little bit of rubber in it, little bit of rubbing alcohol in it. Nah, you go to, you go to the quick trip, or you go to the fries. You go to the Walmart target. You get some peanut Eminem's. Yes, what you gonna get. You get peanut Eminem's. It can take like peanut Eminem's. Now, granted, some of them can can look like sloth from the Goonies. You know I'm saying, hey, you know they can look a little bit. They've deformed, but it tastes like peanut Eminem's. That's what Drake is to be. You can never be upset. He's gonna give you exactly what he's gonna give you, but he has new music. Dropping Sip of the coffee. He has new music dropping tonight.
Speaker 1:I Called scary hours three and I think the last time I'm seeing, the last time I think he did that. It was like two or three records on there. All right, three records, scary hour threes, I you know, and there's no. There's no known if there's a feature on there. But I always get excited Because the internet gets excited and in music there's not much to get excited about anymore. I Mean, I did have a lot of joy watching and still watching Taylor Swift be at chiefs games and stuff like it, you know. But as far as music I really want to listen to and I'm a Swiftie, I consider myself a swiftie. I don't know every record, but when she pops out I'm like, oh, that's Taylor Swift, my honest Taylor Swift, and I'm on that record. But when there's music from somebody I just listened to on a reggae, on the regs on the reggae, I get a little bit excited. The internet pumps me up. So he's dropping scary hours three tonight.
Speaker 1:So for the people that hear this, I'm pretty sure you're going to be a Drake fan. You know, tonight I think it's midnight Scary hour three will drop and we'll see what the you know the few records to be supposed to be probably about two or three new records on there. It's always nice to get some new Drake records and see what it's about. I'm hoping it's some dope shit. I expect it to be some dope shit, some fun shit or some peanut M&M's Most likely the peanut M&M's and in the other part of that that's really dope is that him and Jay Cole Another person that's a part of the three to four that make actual albums, but Jay Cole's you know the light skin leprechaun with a fro right, get that into the rainbow.
Speaker 1:There he is holding the pot of gold and then he's gone. It's like, oh shit, there's, there's the leprechaun, jay Cole with the, with the, with the hair. He's got the pot of you know pot of gold in his hand and then you get it and he's gone. And then you reappear because you hear about the rainbow being in another direction the direction years later. I think that's what it is Right. He's a.
Speaker 1:You know, I disappear here. Pop up, drop some music, go on a tour. Holler. I used to. I used to say the artist like it because you don't get a lot right. They drop music, they do their tour and they disappear, so you don't feel like you get a lot, especially nowadays when everybody's kind of more in depth. They show you inside of their house, they show you their process. You see what type of food they eating before they record or before they go on a stage. You see what type of lube they're using before they have sex. You see everything now.
Speaker 1:But people like Eminem and then Jay Cole and you know Jay Z to, you know, because he's with Beyonce you see a lot about, you see, you know what? Not really, because you know everybody thinks Beyonce alien, so they probably don't show as much because they live in a spaceship and then when they, when she gets done performing, they're like, oh shit, beyonce going on her private plane. But she really get on the spaceship and the spaceship fool, fool with it like alien food and they get on it alien food and they take off because everybody thinks Beyonce a reptilian alien and Jay Z probably is actually human and they just forced him to be there and he looked cool but he really just scared in behind the scenes. He don't know what to do because if I leave they won't kill me. They don't kill everybody in my family because she's an alien, but that's just what everybody say on YouTube. I ain't saying it's true or not, that's what everybody's saying on YouTube.
Speaker 1:Anyway, you don't really get a lot from Jay Cole. You know you get the music. People love it. It's about a week, week and a half Now. About a week he does numbers and then poof, he's gone. That's not a problem with that, because I'm a private person. I like to be private. I want to share my relationship with people. You know what I'm saying. I don't like to share my dog like that. That's my guy, winston Roar roar. It's my guy, right. So I understand being private, but sometimes, from a fan standpoint, you just would like to see a little bit more, especially in the era of seeing everything. But he's one of the ones who give you effort, creativity, lyrics. You know he put the time in to give you some real work. You got to appreciate it right. But him and Drake are going on tour Now.
Speaker 1:I don't do concerts. I'm not a concert person. Um, I don't usually do comedy standups. I went to see Chappelle and Chris Rock because you know what I'm saying. If you got comedy right, you think comedy and then you think God's and you say, ok, there's like four or five of them. For me, those are two of the four or five. You know what I'm saying. So I went to go see that. But concerts, I'm not a big.
Speaker 1:I went to see Jay-Z when I was younger, probably like 14. It's a hard night life tour for the folks that are younger. If you go, look at the date, shame on you, because why are you trying to insult me? You know what I'm saying. I can hear your hate when you type in the hard night life to it and you see it was like 96. That's disrespectful. Don't do that. It's like 98. Actually it's like 98.
Speaker 1:Um, but I went there and I actually was so. So I was like I was like 15. It's 15 at the time. So I went there and I 16. So I went there because it might have been 99. Yeah, it's like 99. So I went there and, dude, I got to go backstage and I'm getting on. Of course this is what I do. That's why you listen to me. It's my shit. So you hear, I went backstage, 16 years old, right, I'm in the music now. You know, my boy KB is making beats on free loops. Free loops is becoming the thing. He's making them from his computer, you know, and I'm getting into the music.
Speaker 1:So I'm like, and he didn't want to go backstage, we just allowed to go backstage. I don't know how we got to backstage, but we was allowed to go, right, I don't remember how it happened and I didn't really care about going, but I ended up going to the hard night life, to a concert tour. So then we get to go backstage. He didn't want to go backstage. I don't know why he didn't want to go backstage, but I had the heart because I'm a, I'm a motherfucking G. You know I'm saying you put me in front of a line, I'm gonna stare that line down because I'm a motherfucking G. You know I'm saying I ain't running from nobody, nothing, unless it's a beat. Wasp, spider, water, tornadoes, hurricanes, too many ants, too many gnats, too many flies. I leave all that shit. But a lion, I'll stare that motherfucker down inside of a armored tank. You thought it was. You thought now ain't fucking with no lion, I'm getting the fuck out of there. Anyway, but I go backstage, right, and when I get backstage, let me go back to that you thought I was. Ah, you, did dogs go put myself in an armored tank, did you?
Speaker 1:And I go backstage and I see a long line of hot ladies, hot women, just a long. I mean this line was long. I have a shitty memory but I remember this because it was a lot of it was a lot of boobies and a lot of booty and it was a long line. I was like, damn this, backstage, behind, behind the concerts, and backstage, 16 years old. I looked like a convict, even when I was 16. So they was like, damn, this nigga need to be doing security. I was like, nah, fam, I'm only 16 and back up. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1:And I see this long line of women and I'm like, and they was just in front of one door. It was one door. I'm not lying to you when I say this. It was one door, gold knob, and it had to easily be about 80 to 100 women lying down the wall. And I'm like, are they? Are they wanting to go into this room To maybe perform a little JLo hustle dance? You know what I'm saying. I don't know, I'm 16. I can imagine anything. I was blown away. The line was long. It was all women, all women. I seem like Beanie Segal walking around. You know what I'm saying. And they couldn't even go in. They didn't even go in the room. I don't have to be Jay-Z, right? I think I seen DMX walking around. You know what I'm saying. Had to be Jay-Z in that room. It was such a long line, I was blown away.
Speaker 1:And then and then, as I'm walking around, I was getting a little nervous because I was by myself. I was getting a little nervous as to whether they tried to jump. You know what I'm saying. I wasn't really thinking like that because it was nothing but women all back there and a few security dudes, right, actually a lot of security. But I was like then you would see the gold knob turn and then they would come. And there was one woman would come out and another one would go in.
Speaker 1:I'm like it's no way that there's a lot of draining going on. You can't service this many In that room. It could be big, but it can't be big like that. So it's like is it like eight motherfuckers in a closet size room trying to service, trying to get service from all these women? At my mind was blonde, I was 16. Don't judge me. I didn't know what was going on, so I eventually left. So I'm not a big concert guy. That's really what the story was all about. Not because you know that was a bad concert, it was dope. I was like Jay-Z DMX, the locks was on there. That was a legendary tour. But J Cole and Drake going on tour, I pop out for that, I pop out for that. I forgot where they, where they say they were going. I guess I'm going to see.
Speaker 1:And the tour, presented by Cash, app and Visa, will feature Drake and J Cole performing across multiple dates. The tour dates it kicks off with back to back shows in Denver at the ball arena on January 18th and 19th 2024, and it includes stops in cities like Oklahoma City, new Orleans, nashville and more, concluding on March 27th in Birmingham at the BJCC legacy arena. Hmm, not going to come by Phoenix. Drake came by here on the it's all a blur. I think that's what it was. It's all a blur tour or whatever it was. Came by here, did two shows Not going to come by with with J Cole.
Speaker 1:And the funny thing was I was next to J Cole. Yeah, like I, like I'm in a mechanic. I'm a mechanic in the shop with my cigarette. My nigga, nigga 10 years ago. I next J Cole in the club. Yeah, nigga, look at scared shit in the club. You know, nigga, he all big time you want to do shit, ride his bike with a fro and have it, be happy and be buried and have a million dollars, a lot of buddy and shit. You know they go acting all scary shit. What he's the, what he's the club, they just did it. It motherfucking it do nothing. They even just standing like a square, you know, say the guys at their party and bitches all around these shit.
Speaker 1:You know that's what I sound like, but I was actually next to him and he was chill. That's how I am in the club. But he was super chill, wasn't really, weren't really into doing too much, just chilling. Um, everybody else around him was having a ball. I mean you couldn't, couldn't imagine what was going on around him, but he was chilling, didn't stay too long, got out of there. You know it was cool because by that time he had, uh, you know, one of my records that I enjoyed nobody's perfect, with Missy LA.
Speaker 1:And then you know, of course, every day of stars born off the blue pen three album with JZ, how he was introduced to us, to the world. I mean it gets no better than that outside of in the club and 50 cent. But it gets no better than that, because he just put you on and you was able to lyrically say, do your shit. And everybody was like damn, hmm, that motherfucker special. And he continued on and he actually became special and Jay Z never seemed like he helped that nigga at all. I did that one moment. We don't know the background, we don't know the backstory, but it seemed like that one record and I think Jay Z was on his album one time. It was like a dubstep type beat and after that he had. You didn't even I don't think even niggas even took pictures shaking hands together that many times. It was just that was it.
Speaker 1:But J Cole is a guy who could drop an album with no features and still do the numbers and then go on tour. It's weird but it's dope. So they got the Drake and they got the J Cole tour and that's uh, I'm gonna be spending some money, I'm gonna go. I would go if they were here. There's nothing. There's nothing saying I'm going to go to O K C, nah, nah, when I'm looking for vacations or I'm looking to go do something cool, I'm not putting a pin on O K C being like yeah, that's where I want to go. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, you know I'm not. You know, you know Alabama, you know what I'm saying. Birmingham, you know, those are all probably really dope places. I'm just saying, and I think the people living there would say I'm not really trying to put a pin here If I was living somewhere else and I was like you know what, I want to go see J Cole. You know what I'm saying. Most time you will not. I'm gonna go to LA, I'm gonna go to Vegas, go to New York, and then you, that's where you want to go see them at. Okay, see Nah, brrr, yeah. And there ain't nothing wrong with the cities. I'm just saying spending my hard earned money to take a flight to those places ain't on my list of things to do in my life. You know what I'm saying. Anyway, I ain't clearing my throat today. Coffee, you fucking with me, huh.
Speaker 1:But moving on, I wanted to talk about something near and dear to my heart. When I was a wee lad, when I was a wee lad, there was a place, a place you would go, and the place was called Chuck E Cheese. Oh, I'm so sorry, showbiz Pizza. Showbiz Pizza was a place that, as a young black kid, you felt like you would never be able to get there, because if you were poor and you were in the ghetto, it was just seemed like a place you couldn't get to. It was never, never land. You know what I'm saying. You can't get there. Disneyland, as a black ghetto kid. They were winning the Super Bowl and I'm going to Disneyland, or you would see Disneyland commercials and you would look at your mama and she'd be like no nigga. Before you even know you see them cockroaches crawling on the floor. No, you see what. You see what is headed. You know what I'm saying. You see what is headed.
Speaker 1:We, I got, we got everything by luck as a kid. You know what I'm saying. Some, some crackhead, stole new two Nintendo's and gave it to somebody that knew, somebody that we know, and they was like well, we don't even need this, you want. Everything was by luck because we was poor. Everything was by luck. Anything with some luxury is by luck. Cable is probably more like that. It was through my grandpa. We was able to have cable in the house. He was able to provide that by pure luck because he knew somebody that worked for the cable place. It wasn't like he was willing to pay for it, he had to plug or grandpa was gangster, everything was by luck.
Speaker 1:So going to show biz pizza was something that you just felt like you could never like. I'm never going to be able to go to your dry past and it'd be full and busy. And you see all the kids coming in, white kids with pizza boxes, and they just got a smile on their face. You can't even touch, you can't even get to, you can't even reach it unless you have some really, really, really full glass of sugary Kool-Aid. That's the only time you get that type of joy when your shit is full of sugar and it's the Kool-Aid's probably cherry and you was hitting it and you was like, oh, that's a smile on your face.
Speaker 1:When you got lucky, you could get the Hershey's chocolate syrup and you could put it in with the milk you had just enough. You get to the bottom of you hear that there's nothing left, but you was able to make enough and you was able to drink it. You felt you smile, it would come over your face. You just was like, yes, it's a win. That's the only time I was able to reach that type of euphoria was when I was doing those things. Other than that I never felt like I was going to get the showbiz pizza. I never felt like it was possible. And then one time for a birthday it wasn't my birthday, it was a friend's birthday and they were having a showbiz pizza. At that time I got lucky enough to have a white friend I don't remember his name. I had a white friend. He was having his birthday party showbiz pizza. Y'all know this. Chuck E Cheese was showbiz. I was able to go and I had a time of my life in there.
Speaker 1:My mom's was able to give me like $10 and she looked at me, you know, saying let you know that, just a real 10. It's a no regular 10. This is a real 10. Like, I'm giving you 10. I don't want to give you but I'm trying to let you have a childhood. I don't want to give you this 10 because I know it's going to hurt me in two hours. You ever give somebody some money that you know is going to hurt you in the time frame. You give them some money like this is going to hurt me in two hours. You don't know this, but I'm going to be hurting for this money. She gave me that $10 and you know, $10 inside of an arcade or you know a showbiz. Now I know it's Chucky, that that's the line. Let's go stretch you out. You could do some work with that $10 that time you could do some work with that. So I had a blast.
Speaker 1:I was the always wanted to be in that place and they named it Chucky cheese and they kept the animatronics, they had these robots in it and if you like a real like listen them things, them things was cool. They was fun. For the like non ethnic kids they was fun, but for me I'm like that's it. I don't really know. I'm saying that ain't my cup of tea. It was about the games and the pizza demo Fuckers moved to.
Speaker 1:You know I'm saying you know that ain't what I'm, you know creepy. I didn't really dig on that. But as a kid you was like as long as I stay away from that stage, I ain't really got a trip. You know he's singing songs and their head was moving all crazy. It was nobody inside, that was all robotics. So they was just moving and it make you uncomfortable. But as long as you stay away from the stage and have friends, some ski ball and some pizza. You was good to go. But what's crazy is that's a big part of Chuck E Cheese and show biz piece of the Chuck E Cheese. That's a big part of. That's why a lot of people go. They got the robots. They're known for that Right.
Speaker 1:So to look up what is that thing called. I got a. What is that? What is that? She called Fast Freddy's. Freddy's. What is that? Freddy's fries, freddy's. The movie that just dropped. I'm looking for it right now. I just had it. What the hell is that thing? Freddy's five Freddy's is a movie. Freddy's nights at five's, five's, freddy's. I can't remember the name of the movie, but it just dropped. It did decent. It was over Halloween.
Speaker 1:Chuck E Cheese decided to remove the night that that movie had dropped. Chuck E Cheese was like all right, we're going to get rid of these guys. All because of the movie, all because of the movies. The great Chuck E Cheese where you could, finally, you could barely find a location. Yeah, I took a shot of him, right, but they removed it. They're removing the animatronics because of a movie. That's the air. We in the movie was a scary movie. They was like you know what? We're going to remove this shit. You know what I'm saying. We're going to get this shit out of here because, yeah, you know, this isn't. This is too scary for kids to see and it's so different of an era because that shit been around since. They've been around and they do that for us. They left them scary motherfuckers in there, but because of a movie having similar animatronics or.
Speaker 1:I've never played the game and I've never seen anything, you know, and I've just been around as a part of the culture, the pop culture, all that stuff. I just never seen anything. I never played the game, nothing but Damn. You know what I'm saying. Damn, they removed that and I guess they're going with an interactive dance floor and from tokens to play cards and a but Tokens. You know they used to have tokens and put them in. It's just wild man. There's a lot of things change. Things easily change. Now it's a lot of sensitivity, but I get it. I stayed away from them, damn things when I was kid too. I get it, but it's not just things kind of wow, they want to shift more modern because of a movie and maybe that's a good thing for them, but because of a movie, it's changing the way their spot is ran or how it looks, how the kids will be able to interact. Damn, you know, I don't know, man, like they.
Speaker 1:Basically, hockey is around and then Jason was going around killing folks in a hockey mask and then the hockey didn't say you know what? We just going to start wearing eye covers because Jason's too scary. We're not wearing them. Type of mask no more. Even though I know that it's not the mask, they wear them. But you get what I'm saying. Don't be a hater, be a congratulator. I just think that's why I wanted to bring it up, because I was like Chuck E Cheese is a big deal when I was a kid. And now all of a sudden you look up, they're changing their thing over a movie. Oh, I got about a good 10 minutes now. Ok, listen, all right. You know how I feel about Stephanie in the crew. I know how I feel about Stephanie in the crew. Let me give them a round of applause for step. You know how I feel about a Golden State Warriors. You know how I feel about Steph Curry, trigger, clay.
Speaker 1:Wimsically devious Dremon Green. Wimsically devious Dremon Green. I love that word whimsically. I use it a lot. Whimsically devious Now I do when I read about it last year when he, when he did the light stuff, I call it a light stomping. That's a light stomping. He did the subbonus in the playoffs. It wasn't, it wasn't come on. He had no Tim's on, it wasn't negative 10 in New York when he stomped them Is a Sacramento, it was springtime. You know, I'm saying it was light. He was whimsically devious for that. So I'm watching. Actually, yeah, I was. You know. This is.
Speaker 1:This happened when I was editing the hour and 40 minute video, right before I deleted it. I knew the Warriors were playing because I put some money up there. I'm only one one time, thanks, warriors. I was putting some money up and I said, oh shit, the game is on. Let me turn the game on on my phone and turn the game on right. When I turn the game on, it was chaos because it was 10 minutes and it was two minutes into the game. It was already chaos and I'm like I'm seeing Clay Clay Thompson grab Jaden McDaniels and they throwing each other around like trigger clay is getting into some and don't make it twisted, trigger clay, he talks.
Speaker 1:You know, he's a different, he's a different breed. It's very quiet, very fresh. He'd be frustrated himself very quiet. He will talk some shit, but you don't really see him getting into no physical shit. That's not even what trigger clay do. And I don't know about Jaden McDaniels because I don't give a fuck about the wolves. I know about NBA players, but there's no disrespect to him, I just don't give a fuck. You know what I'm saying. I love the game of basketball, I love the NBA. You know what I'm saying. But if you ain't on my fantasy team, I'm not playing 2K. I'm not putting no money on you. I barely know you. Okay, but trigger, don't be getting into that.
Speaker 1:And I looked up and they grabbing each other's jersey and then they yank each other around and Clay Jersey is ripped but Rudy Gopar runs up behind Clay. Rudy Gopar is like seven foot runs up behind Clay Grabbing him. You know J McDaniels, off to the side, look like it's about to ease up. Cp threes in front of you know was talking to talk with the trigger, trying to get in there and break it up. And if Ruby go bear comes in, grabs him behind, you know, saying they don't do that shit in prison, I'm just playing. But he goes up, grabs him up behind and then Draymond Draymond got like a light job. I think if you keep Draymond's light jogging just to try to get in there and to check on his teammate and pick up speed and I mean hit the guy and granted, when you look at Dre, draymond's actually really fucking fast for the position he plays and the age that he's at and disrespecting him. Right, he's fast and he just kind of, and all of a sudden he's seen Rudy go bear grab trigger and he just put him. He put him in a headlock. Now the memes for this shit is fantastic. I see the Joe Rogan talk about he's going to get the joke. The Joe Rogan was fantastic. There's a lot of memes for this. But let me tell you something he didn't have him for real. He didn't have him for real.
Speaker 1:You ever have like brothers and you have your brother around the neck and maybe he you know Sam, oh, maybe he had just unplugged your, your, your gaming system while you playing, because you know you can't save shit for back of the day. You playing Sega, you playing Nintendo, super Nintendo, dreamcast there's no, the game automatically saving you either had to get to a point or you just it just didn't save, you turn it off. You turn it off. You had to start from the beginning. So maybe your brother unplugged it. Talk of shit, you grabbing by the neck. And you realize that my little brother, so I can't really, I can't really hand him up, I can't really choke him out, cause then my mama coming with the kung fu, right, and that's what Dremon did. Dremon had him and Dremon's making a whimsically devious face, right, but he ain't really got him.
Speaker 1:You can see, steve Kerr, you know Steve Kerr was like that. That. You know that white guy who's seen what happened, was trying to get in your. Oh my God, buddy, stop. Oh my God, that's how Steve Kerr was like oh, but Steve Kerr knew Like that's my guy, steve Kerr is competitive as shit, that's my guys, what you're supposed to do. And I know he told him in the back in the locker room, was like you know what I'm saying? The game's over, all right, listen. He already knew he should have told somebody to find Dremon. Hey, hey, don't he. He should have just ran for Dremon. He should have.
Speaker 1:Whatever was happening with Clay could have been getting his eyes plucked out, because it doesn't matter, find Dremon, because that's all that matters, because Dremon is going to fuck somebody up, it don't matter. Clay getting stomped out coach. Find Dremon, because that stomping cool Clay going. Clay going to heal with Dremon about to knock some niggas out and it's about to be suspensions all over the place and we need them at least for 30 games because he's bound, because the way the league treats him, he go. That dude passes enough of strong gas and he gone for two games and I see all the clips he kicking motherfuckers in the balls or something like that.
Speaker 1:Granted, there's some shit you suspect about you. Like man, damn bro, are you a little dirty? I think you're a little dirty, but that's what makes him like a legendary player. Motherfuckers was back then. Everybody was cheap shot and everybody in the 80s and 90s Take this elbow with you, take this motherfucking shit to your kneecap. I'm not saying that that shit is welcome, but that's what was going on. You need a motherfucker who fired chippy ready to get in somebody's face. You know what I'm saying. Give him something to the gut, let him know. This shit ain't. This shit ain't easy. This shit ain't cake. Dremon's whimsically devious Clay Thompson getting stomped out, coach, it don't matter. Find Dremon, because there's going to be a left pool pool. Was this damn near in a coma when he called him Find Dremon. Now I listen.
Speaker 1:As soon as I seen Dremon having from the neck and take him from where he was at almost to the bench, I said I said yikes, he didn't let him go quick enough. He didn't let him go quick enough. He didn't let him go Again. It wasn't tight, it's just that go bears seven, seven, one, and when you got a strong enough grab around your back, you bent. You bent weird, and he took him too far of a distance. You know what I'm saying. You got your corner store, he took him to the corner store and you see Dremon's face. You see everybody like this dude, go kill this dude, what he didn't really happen like that, because you can see the go bear, go bear lights, get here to have him. He'd have been turning red to blue. Go bear did look like he wanted to call the manager, he wanted to call the police. I am ready to press charges. He needs to be put down. He is a rabbit dog. But if go bear never runs and touches Clay Thompson Dremon Green never does any of that and then they do everybody out of the.
Speaker 1:They do. They do Clay Thompson to trigger out the game. They do Jade McDaniels out the game, and you know, you know and they even. The crazy thing is they went far enough to talk about the flagrant to for Dremon. That's how you knew. I said, oh yeah, he about to sauce him up because they just talked about ejection with ejection with trigger. They talked about ejection with Jade McDaniels, but they went into detail. Flagrant to you're out of there, right, and you just knew it. Motherfuckers is calling for 10, 10 game suspension. You're criminal, jay Williams, talking about 10 games suspension. Let me tell you something.
Speaker 1:In a sport or in real life, my God, you want your teammates to have your back. Man, you ever been in something? You in a squabble, you in the tussle, you in a one on one batch match and somebody randomly come grab you and somebody able to hit you or kick you or whatever. And, the surprise of it all, somebody just grabbed. What are you doing when you watch it? That shit was coming to an end. Go bear grabs him, dream on, says what the fuck? I got your n***a and he pulls them off, but they gave him five games.
Speaker 1:I I have to say he dodged it because I really they do that dude so dirty and I get it, I get it. You know I'm saying you're the, you're the. He's the black man who you know keeps showing up in front of the judge and you know the judge is tired of seeing him and it's like, damn, mr Green, you back again and green light man. Come on, man, you got to understand the judge. Like I don't really even care, man, I got a subway sandwich in the back to eat. This is easy. Slams the gavel and there you go, you off. This is a bit extreme, but you off the records. So he actually dodged what I thought they was really going to hang him on.
Speaker 1:They got him last year in the playoffs with the Wimsley Divya stomp and I'm like that to me you got you ain't looking subbonus. I'm so tired of them not looking at others. Go, bear is able to stay in the game. You're not looking at others. They see Dreymon, oh yeah, but not knowing man. His love for the basketball is smart for the basketball, great for the game. Even the rough and stuff with the Afro puff, even that part of the game Keeps the NBA exciting. Everybody shakes hands. They love each other.
Speaker 1:Oh, hey, pal, hey, how you doing Green could be cool with you off the court, but on the court, as a Golden State warrior, this dude is a warrior. I don't care, he don't care. He going to let the rest have it. Dude is smart and I think that's why he's able to talk for so long. That's why he's able to bitch for so long, because he's extremely intelligent when it comes to the game of basketball. It's not the rookie, it's not the four years, not the five years, not, it's somebody who's a veteran and he's shown extreme intelligence. That's why he's able to talk and talk the way he talks to the refs. But man, that was tough boy.
Speaker 1:Oh, draymond going for five games, oh, he ain't playing tonight either. Oh, steph is not playing tonight either. My God man. But Steph is cool. He just had a little tweak of a knee issue. They just, you know, they don't play about Steph. Steph, steph, walk over the sideline. He's like man, I got this hanging there. They'll put him in bubble wrap and we won't see Steph for two weeks. Off a hang now. We won't see Steph for two weeks. They do not play about the assassin, about Steph Lee Snipes. They do not play about him.
Speaker 1:As soon they say Steph came in coughing, we sent them home we get. We sent the doctors over to his house. He ain't even here. We won't see him for two weeks. Steph was coughing wrong. He said, man, just a regular cold. They said, no, steph, take your time, we we're not even going to fuck, we're not even fuck around with you because you take a franchise from the red and you make it a billion dollar company. You best believe. You best believe we send in the best Norwegian doctor all the way over for your regular, regular day cough and you are not allowed to play. Hang now, two weeks gone. If this is a playoffs, did tweak this knee, he'd be playing for sure. Hell, I've even seen Steph. I've even seen Steve Kerr hold him out of playoffs. That's how much they don't play about Stephie. So he's not playing tonight. Dream on greens not playing for the next five games. My god, my words could be upside down.
Speaker 1:I had a lot more to talk about, because I want to talk about how Marvel Studios is moving away from the King storyline.
