WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.080
All right, what's going on, people? Not just

00:00:02.080 --> 00:00:04.940
me. It's a podcast in the building. Another good

00:00:04.940 --> 00:00:07.759
evening. What's good with you, bro? How's everything

00:00:07.759 --> 00:00:11.199
today? What's happening, man? Good, good. How

00:00:11.199 --> 00:00:13.960
about you, bro? Excellent, man. Doing good. It's

00:00:13.960 --> 00:00:20.359
another good Tuesday. Let's bring up this black

00:00:20.359 --> 00:00:23.719
history again, because it's that time. I don't

00:00:23.719 --> 00:00:30.469
even think a lot of people even knew that. This

00:00:30.469 --> 00:00:36.570
year marks 100 years of black history. So if

00:00:36.570 --> 00:00:40.509
nobody ever knew that, this is actually a historical

00:00:40.509 --> 00:00:43.170
moment. A lot of black people are part of right

00:00:43.170 --> 00:00:47.350
now that they probably don't even realize. Did

00:00:47.350 --> 00:00:51.570
you know that, bruh? Know what, bruh? Say it

00:00:51.570 --> 00:00:57.009
again? This year? This year marks a hundred years

00:00:57.009 --> 00:01:01.909
of black history, you knew that? Nah, you be

00:01:01.909 --> 00:01:04.689
honest. I always I thought black history is this

00:01:04.689 --> 00:01:09.969
it as long as black people Yeah, actually I know

00:01:09.969 --> 00:01:12.510
listen real talk. I didn't know it had a year

00:01:12.510 --> 00:01:16.030
a number on it Yeah, it actually has a yen and

00:01:16.030 --> 00:01:20.170
nobody man. Oh, okay. It was a it was a it came

00:01:20.170 --> 00:01:26.730
up today in part of some of my history readings.

00:01:26.969 --> 00:01:28.629
I was looking at it, I was like, wait a minute.

00:01:30.010 --> 00:01:32.549
That's crazy, right? You would think it existed

00:01:32.549 --> 00:01:35.670
as long as black people existed. Yeah, so I did

00:01:35.670 --> 00:01:40.530
a little research on it. This is what Google

00:01:40.530 --> 00:01:43.849
AI came up with. I want everybody to hear it.

00:01:43.909 --> 00:01:47.849
February, 2026, March, the 100th anniversary

00:01:47.849 --> 00:01:52.489
of organized black history. commemorations in

00:01:52.489 --> 00:01:55.450
the United States. What began as a week long

00:01:55.450 --> 00:01:59.930
effort to integrate black stories into American

00:01:59.930 --> 00:02:03.129
education has evolved into a global movement

00:02:03.129 --> 00:02:06.709
of reflection and celebration. So let's keep

00:02:06.709 --> 00:02:11.289
going. It says, the observance was established

00:02:11.289 --> 00:02:16.580
to ensure that the too often neglected accomplishments.

00:02:16.780 --> 00:02:18.719
It's the like, what basically still me and you

00:02:18.719 --> 00:02:20.539
always talk about when people just, you know,

00:02:20.599 --> 00:02:22.639
a lot of the black stuff just kind of got overlooked.

00:02:23.939 --> 00:02:27.840
Black Americans were honored as an integral part

00:02:27.840 --> 00:02:35.039
of the nation's story. Now 1926, an historian

00:02:35.039 --> 00:02:39.639
by the name of Dr. Carter G. Woodson in the Association

00:02:39.639 --> 00:02:45.610
for Study of Negro Life and History, They basically

00:02:45.610 --> 00:02:53.069
launched Negro History Week. And basically it

00:02:53.069 --> 00:02:56.650
is always the, they marked it always on the second

00:02:56.650 --> 00:02:59.449
week of February. The reason being the date of

00:02:59.449 --> 00:03:05.069
choice came because of Frederick. Douglas, his

00:03:05.069 --> 00:03:08.430
birthday was on February 14th, and Abraham Lincoln,

00:03:08.449 --> 00:03:11.069
his birthday was on February 12th. Now, the reason

00:03:11.069 --> 00:03:13.969
they chose these two people, because they were

00:03:13.969 --> 00:03:17.250
the first two people in history to push Black

00:03:17.250 --> 00:03:21.629
liberation. So, that's the reason why they chose

00:03:21.629 --> 00:03:25.150
that second week of February. Of course, things

00:03:25.150 --> 00:03:28.430
done changed over the years. In 1976, they showed

00:03:28.430 --> 00:03:32.180
during the US Bicentennial, President Gerald

00:03:32.180 --> 00:03:35.639
Ford officially recognized it as Black History

00:03:35.639 --> 00:03:40.379
Month urging Americans to seize the opportunity

00:03:40.379 --> 00:03:45.460
to honor black achievement. And I don't think

00:03:45.460 --> 00:03:47.719
neither one of us kind of even brought up him

00:03:47.719 --> 00:03:50.500
yet in a conversation to actually talk about

00:03:50.500 --> 00:03:54.719
it, but it's deep that nobody ever really appoints

00:03:54.719 --> 00:04:00.180
him in any way, shape or form towards, you know,

00:04:00.139 --> 00:04:03.400
history. And it's deep. It was him to actually

00:04:03.400 --> 00:04:07.340
mark the whole entire month, but it still really

00:04:07.340 --> 00:04:10.180
didn't get any big wings until it just took some

00:04:10.180 --> 00:04:13.199
time to grow. He got a patent. What you call

00:04:13.199 --> 00:04:19.139
it? He basically certified. Yeah, basically certified.

00:04:19.399 --> 00:04:23.399
Yep. Basically, you know, him being the president

00:04:23.399 --> 00:04:26.769
of that time in 1976, you know, You know, it

00:04:26.769 --> 00:04:29.490
was a that's when things started to kind of.

00:04:29.490 --> 00:04:30.930
Oh, yeah, they started signing. They signed.

00:04:30.990 --> 00:04:33.550
Don't they sign laws and stuff? So he signed

00:04:33.550 --> 00:04:37.029
it in law. Right. Yeah. Yeah. At the U .S. Bicentennial.

00:04:37.310 --> 00:04:40.490
OK. OK. Yeah. U .S. Bicentennial. Yeah, they

00:04:40.490 --> 00:04:43.250
did it. That's when they did it. Man. Yeah. Like

00:04:43.250 --> 00:04:45.850
you say, dang, that's crazy. We missed that part

00:04:45.850 --> 00:04:48.709
of history, though. That's crazy. But like I

00:04:48.709 --> 00:04:51.389
said, but any who would who would have thought

00:04:51.389 --> 00:04:57.040
that black history might had. a date to a black

00:04:57.040 --> 00:04:59.439
history period, you know what I'm saying? Like

00:04:59.439 --> 00:05:03.319
you would just think that it was just existed

00:05:03.319 --> 00:05:06.800
since the first black person was born put on

00:05:06.800 --> 00:05:09.939
this earth, you know what I'm saying? I mean,

00:05:09.939 --> 00:05:12.819
that's a good thing though, we think like that.

00:05:12.860 --> 00:05:15.600
Cause that mean, hey, black history always been,

00:05:15.600 --> 00:05:17.680
it's always been black history, long as black

00:05:17.680 --> 00:05:21.360
is this. Exactly. And there's something I thought

00:05:21.360 --> 00:05:31.250
about. comparing what's going on now to what

00:05:31.250 --> 00:05:34.290
was going on 100 years ago, right? I gotta say

00:05:34.290 --> 00:05:41.589
this now. Okay, so to talk of the situation,

00:05:41.649 --> 00:05:43.550
we've already been talking about Nikki, and I

00:05:43.550 --> 00:05:48.050
gotta bring this up, because it's part of this

00:05:48.050 --> 00:05:51.250
situation of this 100 year stretch that's going

00:05:51.250 --> 00:06:00.980
on, right? And, you know, we, you want to put

00:06:00.980 --> 00:06:04.160
a black face on something and think about this,

00:06:04.300 --> 00:06:06.759
dawg. Just think about this. The person that

00:06:06.759 --> 00:06:10.920
they tried to choose was Nicki Minaj. Just think

00:06:10.920 --> 00:06:15.279
about that for a second, bro. Think about it.

00:06:15.699 --> 00:06:19.839
Out of all these black folk that they could've

00:06:19.839 --> 00:06:23.459
- They tried to get her the queen of - They tried

00:06:23.459 --> 00:06:25.560
to roll around, you know, you know what I thought

00:06:25.560 --> 00:06:28.319
about too, you know, you know, I think the hip

00:06:28.319 --> 00:06:31.120
-hop girl the women hip -hop, right? They took

00:06:31.120 --> 00:06:33.560
you know, notice this they done completely wrote

00:06:33.560 --> 00:06:35.959
off Candice Owens as if it like she ain't got

00:06:35.959 --> 00:06:37.600
nothing to do with nothing now You noticed that

00:06:37.600 --> 00:06:40.319
right? But you know what? I think Nikki is the

00:06:40.319 --> 00:06:43.079
replacement for Candice Owens. Gotta be. I think

00:06:43.079 --> 00:06:47.120
that's the replacement man. Because then Candace

00:06:47.120 --> 00:06:49.439
get in a little situation where she says something

00:06:49.439 --> 00:06:52.899
about Charlie Kirk or whatever. She basically

00:06:52.899 --> 00:06:54.839
went against the grain a little bit from what

00:06:54.839 --> 00:06:57.600
I heard. She jumped on our ship. Yeah, yeah,

00:06:57.600 --> 00:07:00.439
yeah. Now Trump had to find a replacement, you

00:07:00.439 --> 00:07:03.759
feel me? Exactly. Had to find a replacement.

00:07:05.720 --> 00:07:08.379
It's me and you talking about in that reaction.

00:07:11.879 --> 00:07:16.160
The likelihood of what's going on, the light

00:07:16.160 --> 00:07:20.199
bulbs just slowly starting to just come on. I'm

00:07:20.199 --> 00:07:23.079
looking at all these tweets that she's tweeting

00:07:23.079 --> 00:07:25.699
on X and looking at all these X posts. She couldn't

00:07:25.699 --> 00:07:29.800
even name a trait that she loved of the president,

00:07:30.420 --> 00:07:32.620
well, y 'all, former president. She couldn't

00:07:32.620 --> 00:07:34.199
even come up with a trait. They asked her in

00:07:34.199 --> 00:07:35.680
the interview, what's some of the traits she

00:07:35.680 --> 00:07:37.860
loved about the president? And you know what

00:07:37.860 --> 00:07:40.879
her response was? I just said, I don't know.

00:07:40.939 --> 00:07:43.060
He got bullied. I didn't like how they bullied

00:07:43.060 --> 00:07:45.980
him. And I'm used to getting bullied. So that

00:07:45.980 --> 00:07:51.439
was her response, bro. That was her response,

00:07:51.699 --> 00:07:54.720
bro. Because he's used to getting bullied. Listen,

00:07:54.879 --> 00:08:00.209
listen to that bullying. Look, Trump should be

00:08:00.209 --> 00:08:02.350
the last one talking about getting bullied, right?

00:08:02.850 --> 00:08:04.790
Trump is the biggest bully. It seemed like he

00:08:04.790 --> 00:08:07.430
controlled the smoke, but he can't take no smoke.

00:08:07.430 --> 00:08:10.029
He can't take no smoke. He can't take no smoke,

00:08:10.610 --> 00:08:16.009
man. At 100 year mark, this is what they was

00:08:16.009 --> 00:08:22.060
saying. We was fighting for a situation. And

00:08:22.060 --> 00:08:24.180
now look at look at what we doing with it, you

00:08:24.180 --> 00:08:25.980
know, and I'm not even speaking of the part of

00:08:25.980 --> 00:08:28.740
saying I'm not even speaking of the part of saying,

00:08:28.899 --> 00:08:33.799
you know, like Republican versus Democrat Versus

00:08:33.799 --> 00:08:36.440
a libertarian or whatever. I'm speaking of just

00:08:36.440 --> 00:08:39.820
across the board period Like look at look at

00:08:39.820 --> 00:08:43.080
how we doing with the power. Like we we literally

00:08:43.080 --> 00:08:46.639
a play with it Like it's okay, you know, you

00:08:46.639 --> 00:08:49.970
don't know what these situations, bro These situations

00:08:49.970 --> 00:08:53.629
when people show their true colors It makes me

00:08:53.629 --> 00:08:55.789
really like like we do we do the research we

00:08:55.789 --> 00:08:59.049
go back we i'll do the history And like I said

00:08:59.049 --> 00:09:03.389
in one of the previous uh blogs we did um She's

00:09:03.389 --> 00:09:06.370
from trinidad. Yeah, she's not even she's not

00:09:06.370 --> 00:09:11.210
even really fully black. Yeah so I expect this

00:09:11.210 --> 00:09:14.549
like when you that's what i'm glad this stuff

00:09:14.549 --> 00:09:17.029
happens because then you start evaluating the

00:09:17.029 --> 00:09:20.250
person like going back Checking the history of

00:09:20.250 --> 00:09:23.870
these people and you realize she man. She probably

00:09:23.870 --> 00:09:26.450
didn't like these black girls anyway Her being

00:09:26.450 --> 00:09:29.610
from Trinidad and her, you know She probably

00:09:29.610 --> 00:09:31.889
looked at these black girls that looked up to

00:09:31.889 --> 00:09:34.590
her and looked down upon these girls Like it

00:09:34.590 --> 00:09:37.450
said you probably never really had respect for

00:09:37.450 --> 00:09:41.309
her friend black fans Anyway, like because your

00:09:41.309 --> 00:09:46.889
true colors are coming out, you know Like, you

00:09:46.889 --> 00:09:51.169
can't come back from this. I don't care. Apology

00:09:51.169 --> 00:09:56.309
is not going, nah. You said what you said. And

00:09:56.309 --> 00:09:59.710
then she basically was saying she felt bad for...

00:09:59.769 --> 00:10:05.710
the white individuals something like White girls

00:10:05.710 --> 00:10:08.250
should be able to fit in with black girls or

00:10:08.250 --> 00:10:11.049
something. Like we haven't been the ones being

00:10:11.049 --> 00:10:13.909
oppressed for years. Like white people have been

00:10:13.909 --> 00:10:18.730
good. I was trying to understand what she, I

00:10:18.730 --> 00:10:21.850
was like, okay, this definitely sound like a

00:10:21.850 --> 00:10:27.860
reach. for a new type of power. And if nothing

00:10:27.860 --> 00:10:33.259
else, to point out one key thing about this,

00:10:33.879 --> 00:10:36.720
to bring up an album in the midst of all of this,

00:10:36.840 --> 00:10:40.860
to point the albums, to say, hey, I'ma hold the

00:10:40.860 --> 00:10:44.179
album until the contract get negotiated. You

00:10:44.179 --> 00:10:47.480
know what, though? A lot of fans probably keep

00:10:47.480 --> 00:10:51.230
that album. And we don't want that. You don't

00:10:51.230 --> 00:10:53.509
want that album man, like a lot of people like

00:10:53.509 --> 00:10:56.929
me like keep that album man, you don't hurt This

00:10:56.929 --> 00:10:59.470
ain't a great rollout if this was her rollout

00:10:59.470 --> 00:11:02.509
man for the for the album This was a huge flop

00:11:02.509 --> 00:11:05.590
like Charlamagne. She deserved donkey of the

00:11:05.590 --> 00:11:08.990
day My reference club get her donkey of the day,

00:11:09.029 --> 00:11:11.610
man She ought she should own it. She should own

00:11:11.610 --> 00:11:13.950
that right? Yeah, right about every foot into

00:11:13.950 --> 00:11:17.250
until the whole situation play out and be done

00:11:19.379 --> 00:11:22.379
It's a situation, too, though. I'm going to say

00:11:22.379 --> 00:11:26.820
this again. Pay attention to all of this, y 'all.

00:11:27.179 --> 00:11:32.899
This is out of all of the 100 years of being

00:11:32.899 --> 00:11:40.419
considered in our history. Look at what we're

00:11:40.419 --> 00:11:47.480
doing now. I still say this. Who can point out

00:11:47.480 --> 00:11:50.960
one situation right now that is considered positive.

00:11:51.600 --> 00:11:57.100
Like, Q brought up a situation about the skater,

00:11:57.179 --> 00:12:01.259
I mean about the hockey chick. I can't think

00:12:01.259 --> 00:12:05.419
of a name right now, but I'm gonna talk. Is it

00:12:05.419 --> 00:12:08.980
Crystal and Finster? Was that it? No, that wasn't

00:12:08.980 --> 00:12:11.039
it. That was the other chick. Who was it? It

00:12:11.039 --> 00:12:14.360
was the one before. But I'm gonna start talking

00:12:14.360 --> 00:12:16.399
about this. Like, this is something I noticed.

00:12:17.679 --> 00:12:21.039
It's somebody posted, you know, with her being

00:12:21.039 --> 00:12:24.879
one of the best and top Olympians right now,

00:12:25.139 --> 00:12:27.340
considered to be in the Olympics and big, have

00:12:27.340 --> 00:12:32.080
a big rollout, you know, financially. And somebody

00:12:32.080 --> 00:12:38.419
just invested into her, bro. The tight end from

00:12:38.419 --> 00:12:42.620
the Chiefs. What's his name, Travis? Yeah. Kelsey.

00:12:43.320 --> 00:12:47.080
She shouted him out years ago. or something like

00:12:47.080 --> 00:12:50.000
that. Well, no, Travis shouted her out, congratulated

00:12:50.000 --> 00:12:53.879
her because she made something on a team way

00:12:53.879 --> 00:12:56.419
before the Olympics. And he congratulated her.

00:12:56.679 --> 00:12:59.620
And he ended up endorsing for giving her money,

00:12:59.720 --> 00:13:03.179
putting into her brain. And I'm gonna tell you

00:13:03.179 --> 00:13:06.159
this. This is the reason why I'm bringing that

00:13:06.159 --> 00:13:15.870
up. So do realize that these Olympians Do not

00:13:15.870 --> 00:13:21.470
make money like y 'all think. This is this is.

00:13:21.750 --> 00:13:27.870
Classic America. Right. Displaying how they care

00:13:27.870 --> 00:13:32.049
and what they care about. You will never understand

00:13:32.049 --> 00:13:35.330
unless you play sports like, you know, like that

00:13:35.330 --> 00:13:38.690
medal. When you get that medal, that medal means

00:13:38.690 --> 00:13:41.250
everything that gold medal. It's like something

00:13:41.250 --> 00:13:43.870
that you can use. It's like a resume. It's like

00:13:43.870 --> 00:13:46.889
that's going to carry you through life like a

00:13:46.889 --> 00:13:49.889
college graduate. That gold medal means the world.

00:13:50.330 --> 00:13:53.950
Like I've received medals, you know, just not

00:13:53.950 --> 00:13:57.330
Olympics, but in competitions and stuff like

00:13:57.330 --> 00:13:59.470
that. And you always want that gold. You always

00:13:59.470 --> 00:14:02.529
want that that number one. So if you never if

00:14:02.529 --> 00:14:05.970
you've never been in any kind of sports or competition,

00:14:06.049 --> 00:14:08.429
I wouldn't expect them to understand it. Like

00:14:08.429 --> 00:14:11.440
it's deeper than money. It's kind of like bragging

00:14:11.440 --> 00:14:16.019
rights. It's a part of it. It's bragging rights.

00:14:16.179 --> 00:14:18.980
Then there's a part of it that comes with a burden,

00:14:19.179 --> 00:14:21.740
though. There's a part of it that is a burden.

00:14:22.580 --> 00:14:27.159
I mean, the parts of it that are a burden are...

00:14:27.159 --> 00:14:29.580
This is me speaking from a track and field standpoint,

00:14:29.740 --> 00:14:35.240
because I know people personally that deal with...

00:14:35.370 --> 00:14:39.929
the whole situation of how the US and Olympics

00:14:39.929 --> 00:14:45.110
and how they look at this situation. So I'm not

00:14:45.110 --> 00:14:49.490
even speaking of the part of the celebratory.

00:14:49.710 --> 00:14:53.950
I'm speaking of the part of where there's the

00:14:53.950 --> 00:14:58.730
taking care of. There's the part where there's

00:14:58.730 --> 00:15:02.179
the, well, we make the country look good. Well,

00:15:02.179 --> 00:15:04.200
what comes with making the country looks good?

00:15:04.340 --> 00:15:06.299
Look good. Yeah, I agree. That should be given

00:15:06.299 --> 00:15:10.460
example. So just like with her, you know, with

00:15:10.460 --> 00:15:14.360
the. I'm a caller name. Let me get let me pull

00:15:14.360 --> 00:15:18.740

Layla Edwards, there you go. Layla Edwards was

00:16:44.840 --> 00:16:51.149
the one, what happened was this is part of what

00:16:51.149 --> 00:16:58.330
I mean by travel, even when you get there, taking

00:16:58.330 --> 00:17:02.230
care of things while you're there. They don't

00:17:02.230 --> 00:17:07.890
even allot this situation to certain Olympians,

00:17:07.950 --> 00:17:10.450
bro. And it's sad to say this, and I'm gonna

00:17:10.450 --> 00:17:13.390
give you my reason how I know, because I've seen

00:17:13.390 --> 00:17:16.609
so many things that came up over the past three

00:17:16.609 --> 00:17:23.140
days. that's considering helping her in the situation

00:17:23.140 --> 00:17:26.259
of her getting there and returning home, travels,

00:17:26.500 --> 00:17:29.140
all of that stuff. That is crazy though. Now

00:17:29.140 --> 00:17:34.779
hit me out, bro. Now hit me out. Now, how can

00:17:34.779 --> 00:17:39.460
I go, you know, perform and thinking about all

00:17:39.460 --> 00:17:41.559
of this stuff? You think about all this overhead

00:17:41.559 --> 00:17:45.980
I gotta take care of at the same time. How am

00:17:45.980 --> 00:17:48.519
I supposed to be great? I mean, you can be great,

00:17:49.039 --> 00:17:51.440
but it's not the case of saying - You know what

00:17:51.440 --> 00:17:53.720
Carissa Shields said? She said she was number

00:17:53.720 --> 00:17:57.940
one and she was broke. She had a gold medal and

00:17:57.940 --> 00:18:00.180
was broke. Broke, yeah. You know what I'm saying?

00:18:01.240 --> 00:18:04.319
Yeah, and you think of, I was looking at the

00:18:04.319 --> 00:18:07.319
other country, last Olympics with the track.

00:18:08.339 --> 00:18:10.619
I can't remember which country it was, bro, but

00:18:10.619 --> 00:18:14.069
the person, the dude won. The dude who won, I

00:18:14.069 --> 00:18:16.950
think it was the 200, 400. I can't remember what

00:18:16.950 --> 00:18:21.250
race he won. But when he won, bruh, he got a,

00:18:21.250 --> 00:18:26.930
look, a house, groceries for a year. He wasn't

00:18:26.930 --> 00:18:29.230
black, right? Yeah, he was black. He was black.

00:18:29.230 --> 00:18:31.710
He was in another country. He's from another

00:18:31.710 --> 00:18:34.849
country, though. He gets a new house, groceries

00:18:34.849 --> 00:18:38.390
for a year. I can't remember what, I think transportation,

00:18:39.470 --> 00:18:42.240
some type of transportation situation. Yeah,

00:18:42.359 --> 00:18:46.000
all this is gifted to him because he won the

00:18:46.000 --> 00:18:49.039
Olympics, right? But then we think about how

00:18:49.039 --> 00:18:54.019
rich But you know what? Oh man, look, this is

00:18:54.019 --> 00:18:58.380
why I respect I respect black folks and you can't

00:18:58.380 --> 00:19:01.880
and you making my point because like you say

00:19:01.880 --> 00:19:05.299
We and you know, we go out there and we run like

00:19:05.299 --> 00:19:07.740
our life is on the line like the rent is due

00:19:07.740 --> 00:19:12.079
We go out there and make that tackle Go out,

00:19:12.160 --> 00:19:15.259
you know I'm saying and even if we we starving

00:19:15.259 --> 00:19:18.519
That's one thing we don't work hard even at our

00:19:18.519 --> 00:19:21.500
lowest like don't like, you know, we could be

00:19:21.500 --> 00:19:26.000
down bad No place to stay like, you know, like

00:19:26.000 --> 00:19:28.900
LeBron used to his you know, they was on welfare

00:19:28.900 --> 00:19:31.559
when he you know going to basketball practice

00:19:31.559 --> 00:19:35.559
like you notice all us like we deal with controversy

00:19:35.559 --> 00:19:40.170
and still succeed in what we do and we don't

00:19:40.170 --> 00:19:43.109
make excuses even if it might be hard we find

00:19:43.109 --> 00:19:45.849
a way that's one thing you can say about the

00:19:45.849 --> 00:19:48.569
black culture and that's why i wanted to shout

00:19:48.569 --> 00:19:51.529
that out they cannot never say that's why they

00:19:51.529 --> 00:19:54.849
hate us so much i feel because we face adversity

00:19:54.849 --> 00:19:58.910
in the face and we and we go get it ain't no

00:19:58.910 --> 00:20:01.230
other race like that man i don't care what you

00:20:01.230 --> 00:20:04.609
say look at the history look who dominates sports

00:20:04.609 --> 00:20:07.200
we talking about olympics You know what I'm saying?

00:20:07.460 --> 00:20:09.880
And you just add it on. We don't get paid for

00:20:09.880 --> 00:20:12.779
this stuff. We don't. But we do it because it's

00:20:12.779 --> 00:20:15.980
the love for it. And we know we're getting cheated.

00:20:16.400 --> 00:20:18.920
But we still, we ain't gonna let that hold us

00:20:18.920 --> 00:20:20.799
back. Nah, I ain't gonna lose. I still won't

00:20:20.799 --> 00:20:23.079
be number one. We still got that hunger. You

00:20:23.079 --> 00:20:25.839
know what I'm saying? So that's what I love about

00:20:25.839 --> 00:20:28.420
black people, man. We some go getters, regardless

00:20:28.420 --> 00:20:33.240
of whatever the situation. So this is the whole

00:20:33.240 --> 00:20:37.440
underlying point, right? Man, you can get on

00:20:37.440 --> 00:20:43.160
here and speak on a whole lot of situations to

00:20:43.160 --> 00:20:46.579
consider, especially when it comes to the black

00:20:46.579 --> 00:20:53.359
culture. There's so much in a hundred years that

00:20:53.359 --> 00:20:58.720
has changed, but some people's mentalities are

00:20:58.720 --> 00:21:02.500
stuck in a hundred years ago, and then some people's

00:21:02.500 --> 00:21:08.950
mindsets are not even here at all. We've got

00:21:08.950 --> 00:21:12.589
to that point now where we have that option,

00:21:12.630 --> 00:21:15.849
and that's crazy. Everybody was all fighting

00:21:15.849 --> 00:21:22.309
for a cause at one point. And now it's just sketchy

00:21:22.309 --> 00:21:27.130
all across the board. You sent that video the

00:21:27.130 --> 00:21:31.609
other day where a situation where you can't even

00:21:31.609 --> 00:21:37.619
go to a gathering. Right? And take your kids,

00:21:37.819 --> 00:21:40.480
take your family, take everybody out there, right?

00:21:42.059 --> 00:21:48.420
You cannot even, like, to say that somebody can

00:21:48.420 --> 00:21:52.119
just pull out a gun, right? Now, you're not thinking

00:21:52.119 --> 00:21:54.119
somebody's gonna pull out a gun. In most cases,

00:21:54.180 --> 00:21:56.420
when you go to a place, right? You're hoping

00:21:56.420 --> 00:22:05.940
for the best. I do like without what's going

00:22:05.940 --> 00:22:10.619
on I Always expect the worst man. Like I'm sorry

00:22:10.619 --> 00:22:14.119
everything just everything I've seen and you

00:22:14.119 --> 00:22:18.380
know social media in person It's just yeah, I

00:22:18.380 --> 00:22:22.619
like what they call PTSD. I mean Yeah, I expect

00:22:22.619 --> 00:22:24.819
that. I'm always on my P's and Q's. I'm sorry.

00:22:25.140 --> 00:22:31.740
That's for the traumatized. I'm speaking from

00:22:31.740 --> 00:22:36.099
just a common place. For the sake of - But a

00:22:36.099 --> 00:22:39.559
little innocent kid wouldn't expect that. A kid,

00:22:39.819 --> 00:22:45.019
a child goes somewhere is not expected to be

00:22:45.019 --> 00:22:49.319
ambushed by a situation. And that's why my heart

00:22:49.319 --> 00:22:52.700
hurts when things happen to kids, because it

00:22:52.700 --> 00:22:55.279
takes me back to when I was a kid. I was innocent,

00:22:55.720 --> 00:22:58.400
just wanting to have a good time, man. I wasn't

00:22:58.400 --> 00:23:01.660
thinking nothing bad. So if somebody was to take

00:23:01.660 --> 00:23:04.119
my innocence, that wouldn't be right. You know,

00:23:04.200 --> 00:23:06.740
if somebody was to, you know, that's crazy. Take

00:23:06.740 --> 00:23:10.140
your innocence or, you know, your life. Like,

00:23:10.339 --> 00:23:14.359
you know, that's crazy. That's why I say, this

00:23:14.359 --> 00:23:17.519
is why I say it goes to what you were saying

00:23:17.519 --> 00:23:24.819
too, you know. why we used to be, you know, protective

00:23:24.819 --> 00:23:28.220
of our own, right? Now we gotta be protective

00:23:28.220 --> 00:23:31.240
of our own and against our own at the same time.

00:23:33.140 --> 00:23:37.269
And it's crazy because... You know, the white

00:23:37.269 --> 00:23:39.650
man used to want to out us, right? You know,

00:23:39.750 --> 00:23:42.869
the white man wanted to out the whole black situation

00:23:42.869 --> 00:23:48.130
in some kind of way. Now it's totally turned,

00:23:48.369 --> 00:23:51.130
now we have the option to say that, man, I can

00:23:51.130 --> 00:23:53.789
kill this black, this nigga over here if I want

00:23:53.789 --> 00:23:56.289
to, you know, or however the case it may be.

00:23:56.329 --> 00:23:59.029
We have that option now. It's crazy to think

00:23:59.029 --> 00:24:01.869
that way, but for a hundred year turn, that's

00:24:01.869 --> 00:24:05.950
deep. For history like we got history now that

00:24:05.950 --> 00:24:07.869
it's more black people killing black people.

00:24:07.910 --> 00:24:10.430
That's the history bro That's what we get to

00:24:10.430 --> 00:24:13.009
say. So 50 years from now somebody can say yeah,

00:24:13.009 --> 00:24:15.269
man Yeah, we were killing each other back in

00:24:15.269 --> 00:24:19.670
the day, bro You know what I you know what I

00:24:19.670 --> 00:24:22.130
you know what I dislike bro, this is one thing

00:24:22.130 --> 00:24:27.069
we we will Destroy our own brother our own sister.

00:24:27.289 --> 00:24:29.670
But as soon as that white man come around we

00:24:29.670 --> 00:24:32.380
on our best behavior We don't know nothing. We

00:24:32.380 --> 00:24:35.839
scared. Put our head down. Yes. And that Bill

00:24:35.839 --> 00:24:39.079
Cosby special showed, taught me a lot. When I

00:24:39.079 --> 00:24:43.759
showed you, I sent you that. That was a brilliant

00:24:43.759 --> 00:24:45.880
piece of work, bro. What's the name of it so

00:24:45.880 --> 00:24:49.279
that the audience can re look at that? So I'm

00:24:49.279 --> 00:24:52.039
gonna pull it. I'm gonna pull this up. Yeah.

00:24:52.539 --> 00:24:57.900
I need to watch that. I'm gonna add some, you

00:24:57.900 --> 00:25:05.269
know, more Depth to this matter of fact because

00:25:05.269 --> 00:25:10.250
that was Let's say that for another episode I

00:25:10.250 --> 00:25:12.970
Don't want to make this one long dog. You just

00:25:12.970 --> 00:25:14.789
woke up nerve again. I just thought about that

00:25:14.789 --> 00:25:19.950
you guys did say that Yeah, um Yeah, yeah. Yeah.

00:25:19.950 --> 00:25:23.509
Yeah. So Let me let me give it. Let me give a

00:25:23.509 --> 00:25:32.079
short insight. Um so Years Back in the 70s and

00:25:32.079 --> 00:25:40.720
80s, we didn't have like too many people who

00:25:40.720 --> 00:25:45.180
would push the black situation. When I say black

00:25:45.180 --> 00:25:48.539
situation, just take a pick at anything that

00:25:48.539 --> 00:25:51.640
was going on in the 70s and the 80s or 60s, 70s,

00:25:51.680 --> 00:25:56.240
80s. and to bring light to it in some type of

00:25:56.240 --> 00:25:58.539
way of saying that let's talk about history and

00:25:58.539 --> 00:26:02.640
why we're here and what's going on and what's

00:26:02.640 --> 00:26:04.779
the situation of our history? What do we know

00:26:04.779 --> 00:26:07.240
about us? What don't we know about us? Did they

00:26:07.240 --> 00:26:09.119
tell us the truth about this at school? Did they

00:26:09.119 --> 00:26:11.279
tell us the truth about that at school? All this

00:26:11.279 --> 00:26:13.299
had to come into play some type of way, right?

00:26:13.359 --> 00:26:15.359
So let me bring this up. I want to say this.

00:26:16.819 --> 00:26:20.539
So some of my teachers in elementary, right,

00:26:20.940 --> 00:26:24.559
They were, you know, you know how many you talk

00:26:24.559 --> 00:26:28.240
about how they never stressed the situation of

00:26:28.240 --> 00:26:33.859
black history for us. And it's not saying, you

00:26:33.859 --> 00:26:37.680
know, teaching history, they call it American

00:26:37.680 --> 00:26:39.200
history. I think that's what it was called when

00:26:39.200 --> 00:26:42.180
I was in, you know, early parts of school. You

00:26:42.180 --> 00:26:44.940
know, they never talked about anything black,

00:26:45.319 --> 00:26:47.920
but didn't we, didn't you just say American history?

00:26:49.870 --> 00:26:52.930
So we're not gonna get American history. We're

00:26:52.930 --> 00:26:57.029
just gonna get a whole bunch of diluted white

00:26:57.029 --> 00:27:00.349
history telling us about stuff around black people.

00:27:01.470 --> 00:27:04.130
And you're gonna tell us this was created by

00:27:04.130 --> 00:27:06.470
this person, tell us it was created by that person.

00:27:07.009 --> 00:27:09.329
I used to have these questions. I'm just throwing

00:27:09.329 --> 00:27:14.309
all of this out there. Because we gonna get back

00:27:14.309 --> 00:27:21.049
up tomorrow too. It's crazy to me what history

00:27:21.049 --> 00:27:27.089
has given us. Like I said, a hundred years. Like

00:27:27.089 --> 00:27:29.369
you said, I wasn't thinking about a hundred years.

00:27:29.609 --> 00:27:30.849
You get what I'm saying? I didn't even know we

00:27:30.849 --> 00:27:33.509
got to 72 years, you know? I thought it was forever.

00:27:33.890 --> 00:27:37.390
I didn't even know we got to 78 years. I didn't

00:27:37.390 --> 00:27:40.670
know we got to 82. That just messed me up right

00:27:40.670 --> 00:27:44.170
there, man. That's some good history, bro. Good,

00:27:44.170 --> 00:27:54.970
good, good. So lost, stolen, or strayed. Listen

00:27:54.970 --> 00:28:00.329
to the title. Listen to the title. The reason

00:28:00.329 --> 00:28:05.069
why I asked all the questions, why I said, why

00:28:05.069 --> 00:28:09.589
I pointed out certain people, why school, you

00:28:09.589 --> 00:28:12.130
know, they teach us. And it's crazy, me and you

00:28:12.130 --> 00:28:16.170
had a very long, pod about that, you know, what

00:28:16.170 --> 00:28:17.869
did they teach you in school? So what did they

00:28:17.869 --> 00:28:19.869
teach you in school? You know, and we both broke

00:28:19.869 --> 00:28:23.630
down different situations to where, so did they

00:28:23.630 --> 00:28:27.009
lie? You know, did they, did they, did we do,

00:28:27.009 --> 00:28:29.109
did, was something, did they tell us? If you

00:28:29.109 --> 00:28:31.130
leave your parcel and don't tell, that's a lie.

00:28:31.369 --> 00:28:33.029
So who made this? If you leave your parcel and

00:28:33.029 --> 00:28:34.849
change, yeah, that's a lie. Yeah, who really

00:28:34.849 --> 00:28:37.710
made this? Who, who, who, and I'ma tell you the

00:28:37.710 --> 00:28:40.230
first person who said that to me, bruh, was my

00:28:40.230 --> 00:28:43.039
aunt love. God rest her soul. She was the first

00:28:43.039 --> 00:28:46.279
person to ever like really push black history

00:28:46.279 --> 00:28:48.259
to me. She like, nah, nephew, let me tell you,

00:28:48.279 --> 00:28:52.339
let me show you this. Let me show you this. Grandma

00:28:52.339 --> 00:28:57.819
sat us down. Not my grandma via my aunt Lo. My

00:28:57.819 --> 00:29:02.059
grandma, Daisy, my mama's grandma, my great grandma.

00:29:02.240 --> 00:29:06.440
Basically she had big help in raising me. died

00:29:06.440 --> 00:29:09.619
the year before I graduated high school. I was

00:29:09.619 --> 00:29:11.819
hoping that she would have made it, but she was

00:29:11.819 --> 00:29:13.900
in her 90s, but she lived a long life. Long story

00:29:13.900 --> 00:29:18.079
short, bro, when I say she sat me down and she

00:29:18.079 --> 00:29:22.720
say, watch this, don't move. And I sat down,

00:29:22.720 --> 00:29:26.079
I watched that thing, bro. And the craziest thing

00:29:26.079 --> 00:29:30.279
of what we were told, bro, most of the stuff

00:29:30.279 --> 00:29:36.559
they was teaching us was stolen. or it was, hear

00:29:36.559 --> 00:29:41.900
me out, either it was stolen or if it was lost,

00:29:41.920 --> 00:29:45.220
they tried to find a way to cover it by something,

00:29:45.680 --> 00:29:48.339
by a moment. So they'll say, they'll pick a moment.

00:29:48.539 --> 00:29:53.779
So say if it was created in 1902 by somebody

00:29:53.779 --> 00:29:56.019
black, right? Say if that black person didn't

00:29:56.019 --> 00:30:00.839
put a stamp on it and somebody in 1910, it was

00:30:00.839 --> 00:30:03.950
a white person, picks it up. And they can claim

00:30:03.950 --> 00:30:05.730
it, bro, just because it didn't have no patent

00:30:05.730 --> 00:30:09.410
on it. You get what I'm saying? Right. And it's

00:30:09.410 --> 00:30:14.450
crazy how some of the stuff that we see every

00:30:14.450 --> 00:30:17.690
day, and you'd be like, okay, somebody black

00:30:17.690 --> 00:30:19.490
created that. And we probably don't even know

00:30:19.490 --> 00:30:22.789
somebody black created that. You know, it's deep

00:30:22.789 --> 00:30:24.930
though. You know, whoever the person that created

00:30:24.930 --> 00:30:28.319
the shoe machine makes shoes. Yeah. That's what

00:30:28.319 --> 00:30:30.160
I learned in there. I learned a lot from that,

00:30:30.319 --> 00:30:33.059
bro. I learned a lot from that. And the sugar,

00:30:33.740 --> 00:30:36.799
I learned a lot from that, bro. Like, bro, and

00:30:36.799 --> 00:30:39.279
what the main part, the teaching, because we

00:30:39.279 --> 00:30:40.720
always talk about teaching. I know we short,

00:30:40.859 --> 00:30:43.819
we got a little bit, but the most impactful thing

00:30:43.819 --> 00:30:47.119
in that film was when the black teacher was in

00:30:47.119 --> 00:30:49.180
there with all the black kids and he was making

00:30:49.180 --> 00:30:52.059
them say positive. Like, are you a Negro? They

00:30:52.059 --> 00:30:56.740
were like, no. What are you? I'm a black American.

00:30:57.019 --> 00:31:00.279
I'm a black American like, you know, like are

00:31:00.279 --> 00:31:02.680
you gonna be a failure? No, and then he were

00:31:02.680 --> 00:31:05.859
like he was like, you know, I'm gonna get you

00:31:05.859 --> 00:31:08.380
like you What are you and the kids were still

00:31:08.380 --> 00:31:11.180
standing firm to like no, I'm a black king I'm

00:31:11.180 --> 00:31:14.819
a black queen and so many words and that was

00:31:14.819 --> 00:31:18.160
powerful. I was like we need to instill that

00:31:18.160 --> 00:31:23.519
Now you see why I'm pointing out that this is

00:31:24.120 --> 00:31:26.640
Again, that's a whole conversation y 'all. Yeah,

00:31:26.640 --> 00:31:29.059
yeah, we I'm gonna get into that we'll get into

00:31:29.059 --> 00:31:33.880
that more in detail Next time we pull we pull

00:31:33.880 --> 00:31:38.460
up and talk like this That story can go. I'm

00:31:38.460 --> 00:31:40.779
gonna go that deep. Yeah, I'm trying to I'm trying

00:31:40.779 --> 00:31:44.539
to Hold some of it, but just hit that part though.

00:31:44.539 --> 00:31:49.220
Hear that part what they teaching us what they're

00:31:49.220 --> 00:31:55.750
teaching us is Slightly what heavily but slightly

00:31:55.750 --> 00:32:00.509
diluted is messed up and some of the stuff can

00:32:00.509 --> 00:32:04.750
Be hidden and get lost if we don't talk about

00:32:04.750 --> 00:32:07.910
it ever again so that's why I try to bring up

00:32:07.910 --> 00:32:10.529
situations and times and and point out these

00:32:10.529 --> 00:32:14.230
situations because If we don't the schools ain't

00:32:14.230 --> 00:32:17.910
gonna teach it It's like reprogramming, it's

00:32:17.910 --> 00:32:20.230
reprogramming the brains, man. That's what I

00:32:20.230 --> 00:32:21.809
feel like. It's gonna be a lot of that. We gonna

00:32:21.809 --> 00:32:24.950
have to reprogram a lot of black Americans' brains

00:32:24.950 --> 00:32:28.529
and minds. We've been so confused and lied to

00:32:28.529 --> 00:32:32.119
and corrupted. Yeah, we it's gonna and the only

00:32:32.119 --> 00:32:34.599
way that it's gonna be like you have to keep

00:32:34.599 --> 00:32:36.660
repeating it You have to keep putting it in their

00:32:36.660 --> 00:32:39.220
face. You gotta keep putting it in their ears

00:32:39.220 --> 00:32:41.700
Even if they don't want to hear it. Yeah, you

00:32:41.700 --> 00:32:44.119
still that's when you go harder, you know When

00:32:44.119 --> 00:32:47.200
they say I don't hear that you go even harder

00:32:47.200 --> 00:32:50.480
because it eventually is gonna click one day

00:32:50.480 --> 00:32:54.279
bringing it up Yeah, keep bringing it up. I ain't

00:32:54.279 --> 00:32:57.940
and this is this this is to put a stamp on this

00:32:57.940 --> 00:33:05.200
like Just remember, we've had all the opportunities

00:33:05.200 --> 00:33:13.200
to present our best to people. We are still having

00:33:13.200 --> 00:33:19.619
our own opportunities to present to people. Which

00:33:19.619 --> 00:33:24.839
one are you gonna pick, y 'all? Everything that

00:33:24.839 --> 00:33:28.970
I've been watching at the top of 2026, Some of

00:33:28.970 --> 00:33:31.589
y 'all are crazy. Some of y 'all are really crazy,

00:33:31.869 --> 00:33:34.990
man. Y 'all really, really need to get it together.

00:33:35.509 --> 00:33:38.609
Even me, I have to tell myself that every day.

00:33:39.450 --> 00:33:42.950
Don't wanna be your best. Get up and be your

00:33:42.950 --> 00:33:48.869
best. You probably wouldn't understand how good

00:33:48.869 --> 00:33:51.710
it is just to speak that to your own self because

00:33:51.710 --> 00:33:53.549
sometimes you don't have nobody to speak that

00:33:53.549 --> 00:33:57.329
to you, you know, so I mean I wake up and ask

00:33:57.329 --> 00:34:00.789
God to please just protect my soul because, bruh,

00:34:00.970 --> 00:34:04.569
it's like an angel being in a world full of devils.

00:34:04.569 --> 00:34:08.269
Yeah, like that's how sometimes I feel like and

00:34:08.269 --> 00:34:10.989
you got to ask God to protect you, protect you

00:34:10.989 --> 00:34:13.650
like mentally, physically, spiritually because

00:34:13.880 --> 00:34:17.260
There's so much hate bro out here. There's so

00:34:17.260 --> 00:34:20.559
much hate. There's so much negativity out here,

00:34:20.679 --> 00:34:25.260
bro. That it's going to take. That's why I try

00:34:25.260 --> 00:34:27.900
to push the message that we push because I need

00:34:27.900 --> 00:34:30.880
more than me. I need more than the me's out here.

00:34:30.900 --> 00:34:33.760
I need a lot of me's to go against all these

00:34:33.760 --> 00:34:36.019
devils out here. You know what I'm saying? That's

00:34:36.019 --> 00:34:39.780
why I want to wake people up. I need people to

00:34:39.780 --> 00:34:41.980
have my vision and think how we think. You know

00:34:41.980 --> 00:34:44.650
what I'm saying? And actually care. About black

00:34:44.650 --> 00:34:47.230
and care about our set and love ourselves most

00:34:47.230 --> 00:34:50.429
importantly love ourselves, you know And once

00:34:50.429 --> 00:34:52.690
we love ourselves, man, we gonna let you can't

00:34:52.690 --> 00:34:55.329
love others. But a lot of us don't love ourselves

00:34:55.329 --> 00:34:57.750
That's the problem and you're right about the

00:34:57.750 --> 00:34:59.909
I just want to get to that point where we start

00:34:59.909 --> 00:35:02.650
loving ourselves man Yeah, you're right about

00:35:02.650 --> 00:35:05.849
that. And this is this is this is the sake of

00:35:05.849 --> 00:35:09.550
Love and help that this is the help part. I'm

00:35:09.550 --> 00:35:13.090
talking about. That's the help like Be that for

00:35:13.090 --> 00:35:18.090
somebody. We have all the options, again, to

00:35:18.090 --> 00:35:22.210
be something. Be that for somebody. Some of y

00:35:22.210 --> 00:35:25.929
'all way better off than a lot of people, and

00:35:25.929 --> 00:35:30.900
some of y 'all just still choose. to be in the

00:35:30.900 --> 00:35:33.099
most selfishest situations that you don't even

00:35:33.099 --> 00:35:35.860
really have to be in. You could be selfish, but

00:35:35.860 --> 00:35:38.099
don't be so selfish to the point where you can't

00:35:38.099 --> 00:35:40.059
open your hand up and help somebody. I ain't

00:35:40.059 --> 00:35:41.599
even speaking the case of saying it's got to

00:35:41.599 --> 00:35:43.940
be money. It ain't always a money world, y 'all.

00:35:44.099 --> 00:35:45.699
Sometimes you just need to speak to somebody.

00:35:45.860 --> 00:35:47.760
Sometimes you just say, how you doing? Sometimes

00:35:47.760 --> 00:35:51.000
you just be like, are you okay? Those things

00:35:51.000 --> 00:35:54.039
still are value. Those things still are more.

00:35:54.829 --> 00:35:58.190
Some people think about it, too. Think about

00:35:58.190 --> 00:36:01.230
this, y 'all. When you get about 70, 80, 90 years

00:36:01.230 --> 00:36:02.969
old, all that talk of what you talking about

00:36:02.969 --> 00:36:05.929
is, man, I don't mind. I admire being by myself.

00:36:06.409 --> 00:36:09.349
You won't. You won't. Because I see a lot of

00:36:09.349 --> 00:36:12.130
people, I drop off deliveries a lot of times,

00:36:12.389 --> 00:36:15.070
and I drop off to these older folks, and they

00:36:15.070 --> 00:36:17.929
can have some of the most eloquent conversations

00:36:17.929 --> 00:36:20.469
with you just because they ain't talked to nobody

00:36:20.469 --> 00:36:23.170
in over two weeks. Only time they talked to somebody

00:36:23.170 --> 00:36:24.929
is the last time they went to the doctor's office.

00:36:26.010 --> 00:36:28.449
Think about that. Bro, but that's the thing.

00:36:28.469 --> 00:36:31.489
We have this wall up. Yeah. We have this wall

00:36:31.489 --> 00:36:34.650
up. And not only are we hurting everybody up,

00:36:34.690 --> 00:36:36.849
we hurting ourselves. Hurting ourselves, too.

00:36:37.050 --> 00:36:38.530
Thank you, bro. Thank you for saying that. And

00:36:38.530 --> 00:36:41.630
you're blocking a blessing. You're blocking somebody

00:36:41.630 --> 00:36:44.050
that could come into your life and change. That's

00:36:44.050 --> 00:36:46.489
why a lot of people are about this stuff. Like,

00:36:46.489 --> 00:36:49.969
sometimes I be like, when people be like, I have

00:36:49.969 --> 00:36:53.519
nobody. I have no friends. I have no. I sometimes

00:36:53.519 --> 00:36:56.679
most times I look in the mirror. What is it that

00:36:56.679 --> 00:37:00.019
you what is it that you are not doing right?

00:37:00.179 --> 00:37:03.079
What is it about you? Like sometimes we have

00:37:03.079 --> 00:37:05.480
to stuff evaluate. You know what I'm saying?

00:37:05.559 --> 00:37:09.159
Maybe it's something about me. Like I got to

00:37:09.159 --> 00:37:12.619
change. Like that's the that's the key. Like,

00:37:12.739 --> 00:37:15.400
you know what I'm saying? And until because I

00:37:15.400 --> 00:37:17.579
see a lot of everybody like to blame others,

00:37:17.980 --> 00:37:21.280
but blame everybody else. but themselves. You

00:37:21.280 --> 00:37:23.579
know what I'm saying? Everybody wanna play victim.

00:37:24.039 --> 00:37:27.380
They're the victim. Everybody wanna play victim,

00:37:27.599 --> 00:37:31.159
man. You know, he did it, he did it. What did

00:37:31.159 --> 00:37:34.500
you do? What are those skeletons? Like they say,

00:37:34.840 --> 00:37:37.579
truth shall set you free. Sir, man. Jesus, them

00:37:37.579 --> 00:37:42.619
people be having them, those logics. Anyway.

00:37:43.099 --> 00:37:45.860
