Adapting to Change: DJ Stories and Music Nostalgia
In our latest episode of the TNT Podcast, we discuss how a venue’s reputation can impact the skater scene, sharing personal updates like Tanaka’s shoulder injury and juggling multiple projects. We critique Cascade East’s incomplete renovations and poor sound system but remain hopeful for its future. The All White Affair event brought unexpected DJ changes and technical challenges, which we navigated on the fly. We humorously debate a potential Super Bowl halftime show with Kendrick Lamar, J. Cole, Drake, and Lil Wayne, and honor late great icons like Rich Homie Quan, BeatKing, Fatman Scoop, and Frankie Beverly. We explore Rich Homie Quan’s unique ad-libs, BeatKing’s journey, and Fatman Scoop’s hits, reflect on DJ battles, sweet treats, and the segments you love!

All right, all right, ladies and gentlemen, um tnt podcast we're back. I know it's been a minute since y'all've heard from us, but you know this busy schedule starting to get busier. So, um, yeah, back. So yeah, back at it. Turn up Tanaka. Yeah, a lot has gone on. We got a lot of catching up to do.
Speaker 2:Tanaka, how are you feeling? A little exhausted, but it's all good. You know, I would say happy to be healthy, but I got injured on monday, so, um, I don't think I knew that. What, what happened on monday? I pulled a muscle in my shoulder, so yeah, how did you do that?
Speaker 2:I don't know, yeah, it just, it just uh. Yeah, it just happened, bro, like it wasn't even no collision or anything awkward. I just, I don't know, probably just because I didn't stretch, or I need to start stretching before I skate. I don't know, I think it was a thing, it was a combination of things. I think it was because I took a nap before the session and I woke up out the nap and just went skating and I think normally when I skate I usually am up a little bit, so my body's already active, you know. And so, yeah, so dealing with that injury, but, um, yeah, other than that, doing good, I mean just busy, you know what I'm saying. Working everybody, just proud of Delinquents. Really, we've been active out here, working hard and doing a lot of different things, and so, yeah, man, just trying to get back to being more active on the shot by Sanago page, but, yeah, I'm trying to figure out how exactly to return, um, so yeah, it's, uh, I mean, it is a lot to juggle.
Speaker 1:Um, yeah, it's a lot going on, uh, djing, traveling, getting around, well, I guess, with you Recording Late nights, early mornings, type deal. Um, yeah, yeah. But, as we said, ladies and gentlemen, we got a lot of catching up to do because, yeah, the last one we had was a Greatest Hits episode and a lot has happened in between that time, which I know I forgot about because, well, I know Tanaka forgot about, because I looked at the list of stuff that we haven't talked about since then. And I forgot about because, well, I know tanaka forgot about, because I looked at the list of stuff that we haven't talked about since then and I forgot about it so um, and this first one, this first topic, I'm not gonna lie, I feel like we did talk about it, but I I don't.
Speaker 1:I listened to the last episode and I don't think I heard anything. I don't think I heard anything of us talking about it. But, um, cascade east? Have we talked about cascade east at all? I can't call it, bro. We may have, we may not.
Speaker 2:Um well, I mean I guess just to run it back. At least I don't recall. I don't recall that we have.
Speaker 1:You know what I'm saying so I guess, if we haven't talked about it, what are your thoughts on Cascade East, since it's been open?
Speaker 2:I think there was a lot of hype in the beginning, obviously because of the name of Cascade. Obviously because of the name of Cascade, I feel like after that first week, skaters were kind of underwhelmed by their experience, just because the sound system wasn't all the way in place and the lighting and everything. Just kind of the whole feel like Cascade has a certain standard about themselves For that experience. When they go in there that first week to not be there, I feel like they kind of left underwhelmed and kind of was like you know, let's just go back to what we were doing before, you know, and so um. So I feel like that first week the sessions had a lot of people but then after that, you know it, it just died off. And then cause I, when I talked to the original staff of Planet Skate, you know they were saying that Saturday has always been, like you know, the top top night over there.
Speaker 2:So being at his cascade, I guess you know it added, it added to, you know it was more so like that was already going and then like cascade, kind of like amplified it just because of the name, you know, right, so. And then plus having a dj. You know that they're not used to that, so, yeah, but other than that, um, personally I, I feel like they should have did the renovations beforehand and then made the announcement, just so that it's not like they can stay excited. You know what I mean. I feel like now they're kind of underwhelmed, they're hesitant to go out there because it's already far away out there in Carnage.
Speaker 1:Is it ever?
Speaker 2:But I mean, you know things happen and all that. So at this point I feel like they should just try and have folks forget about their first experience and then, like when they do the grand opening and all that, hopefully you know what I'm saying it will get people back on board type of deal. So I I'm not mad at how they're kind of. I feel like they're kind of laying low right now. You know I'm saying doing the renovations, getting that and I don't know the last time you've been there turn up, but they definitely, you know, they definitely, like like last last time I went, the speaker system was a lot better than the initial time that I went there, right, yeah, no, I haven't been there in some weeks.
Speaker 1:I haven't been there in some weeks, probably about a month, um, but uh, yeah, my, my biggest issue with uh, cascade east slash, planet skate, I'll, I'll call it. I'll call it slash because, like you said, they're not really done with the renovations and most of that stuff in there is because of planet skate. But my biggest issue was the, was the? I don't even know if it's plexi, but the glass. The glass was my biggest issue, but it wasn't because it was glass, it was just the fact that it was glass and then, like they had like a light that was sitting right in front of the glass, so like it would glare off the glass and I wouldn't be able to see anything past the light yeah, that glare was real bad, bro, yeah real bad.
Speaker 1:It was real bad to the point that, like, the only time I could see is like when I did a slow set and it was like yeah, it was.
Speaker 2:It was really weird and you know mr gray speaks so much about how we're like that asia.
Speaker 1:You know skate guard to make sure folks are safe, so you know that glare was preventing us from seeing the floor for real right right, for sure, um, but yeah, uh, it's got some work to do, but, um, it's a work in progress for sure, um, as far as I heard recently, uh, apparently the glass is down, so I guess, I guess we'll see, we'll see, uh, we'll see how this, how see where this ride takes us. Basically, alright, so let's see what we got next on my list of shit that we haven't talked about. So I did want to talk about ATL vs JB a little bit, but it's more of a stay tuned, so we don't have a date on it yet. But shout out to um, skate house and skate mentality. Uh, she said we gonna, um, collaborate on the next atl versus jb. She's gonna get some shirts made for the atl style and the jb style and have folks represent like that.
Speaker 1:So you know, shout out to her, shout out skate house, skate mentality, um, next atl versus jb. I will say this about atl versus jb it's very interesting because it takes a lot of brain work for atl versus jb, because it's nothing, but mixing is a lot of mixing. It's not a lot of, I don't know. It takes a lot of mixing to blend the two, two styles, and yeah, it's a lot so, but it's something different and I always like different. So shout out to atl versus jb bringing out something that not necessarily I didn't know I didn't have, but like just you know something different.
Speaker 2:Shout out to do, uh, do you? Is there a lot of jb for that? Pop out.
Speaker 1:I mean it's a mixture, okay, and it's honestly, it's not necessarily JB, it's a lot of JB slash, snapper, slash, that Cleveland jumping up and spinning. I think it's called Cleveland Freestyle, I think that's what it's called. But yeah, shout out to that, shout out to Smyrna. Like I said, I don't really get to do sparkles in Smyrna a lot, but it's always a good vibe. I always have a hard time trying to figure out who these other DJs are, because every time I come back to sparkle smyrna, it's always the same story oh, turn up, you need to, you need to. You know, you gotta come with it, bro. These djs, blah, blah, blah, yada, yada. I'm like in my head I'm just thinking like, okay, so why are y'all still like hiring these djs if, like, they're just not doing such a good and it's the same people over and over again? So I'm like I don't know. But shout out to smyrna. I always have a good time when I go to smyrna.
Speaker 2:Um yeah, they. Um. I guess the feedback on that was that I guess they begin like some older djs or something and they just like I guess they're not good, so it's just the younger crowd that. I don't even know, man, I don't cause. I feel like the folks that be talking to you is like older right so I just I don't know.
Speaker 2:I guess they just not quality DJs and then they be trying to bring folks from like out of town, out of state and stuff. So I guess, to bring folks from like out of town, out of state and stuff.
Speaker 1:So I guess dj tanaka coming soon sparkle smirno near you, ladies and gentlemen, so we're gonna move on to uh straight out gco. Uh, shout straight out gco, two for two. Because I remember we did talk about Strat G Co last, uh, last episode. But it always amazed me that like G Co is able to bring its own crowd and boy did it ever this last time and the reason why I knew that it was able to bring his own crowd. For the people that don't know Strat G Co is, it's basically uh, like a baby Saturday Night Trap fever and we have it at Sparkles, gwinnett and you know all the ATL style folks come out and yeah, they come skate.
Speaker 2:Start a whole new generation.
Speaker 1:Basically is what it is. And yeah, shout out to Chico. And the reason why I knew it brought its own crowd was because at the end it was still hella people in there, because at the same time they'd be having schools and stuff in there as well. But yeah, basically once they all left it was just a whole bunch of ATL-style skaters and yeah we had a good time.
Speaker 1:Shout out to GCo, shout out to G Co and, I guess, shout out to Cascade Sunday, because we got just passed. We had the all white affair. Tanaka, do you like to give you? Well, hold on for the people that don't know, so I give a little backstory. So what was supposed to happen was it was supposed to be me drip, shout out, dj, drip, dj tanaka. We were all supposed to dj um for the all white affair, downstairs, uh, for the skaters, but that wasn't able to happen. So we, uh I, had to go upstairs in the marquise lounge and dj tanaka and dj drip, dj downstairs. So, tanaka, would you like to give some highlights, non-highlights, ups, downs, left, rights of the night, um I mean, I feel like it for the most part, went well.
Speaker 2:I just haven't DJed at Cascade West in so long so I kind of forgot how to run the light system, you know. And then, yeah, craig was hosting. Shout out to Craig, shout out to craig. But yeah, he just wasn't in the booth. So I don't know, I didn't. He was the only one that had the mic so I couldn't really interact. You know, like get on the same page in the sense I have to turn chills, but it's all good, I feel like it worked out.
Speaker 1:I mean, it was a little awkward.
Speaker 2:Yeah, especially when you started yelling at me. It was just coincidence, you just came in at the wrong time, honestly.
Speaker 1:Man, tanaka, came in. He was like hey, bro, change the lights. I was like what color, bro, I don't care bro, it don't matter. You sure, you sure because it don't I don't know, it's gonna look real crazy. I turn on rainbow and folks just looking at me.
Speaker 2:You know man just put me on the spot. But yeah, I mean, for the most part it was good. Um, I agree, I already kind of knew going into it I was gonna do the slow sets and turn trios, because I know that Drip doesn't really care for that. I think this is actually. Drip learned that he didn't realize that me and you were the only DJs that go and start fast, start fast and go slow.
Speaker 1:For the slow set he was caught off set.
Speaker 2:He was like caught off guard. I was like nah bruh, like he like bruh. I just started like 50 something. I'm like nah bruh, I don't look man, me and Tarno, we do a complete like. We do a completely different for everybody else. You know, we start fast and go slower.
Speaker 1:So, tanaka, let me ask you this, because I never actually asked you this did you do that like just on your own?
Speaker 2:yeah did I. Okay, I've always, I've always done it. I've never, I've never worked backwards got you okay.
Speaker 1:See, I didn't know phil's the thing where, since I was the one that kind of brought you into the skate world while I was doing that even at a party like uh back in college got you yeah, it wasn't no, um, no influence, no got you, I just in my mind it.
Speaker 2:I don't know it makes sense to me let's talk about it.
Speaker 1:How's it?
Speaker 2:I don't I don't like going faster, that doesn't make. When I'm going faster, I'm thinking trains and trio. You know what I'm saying. Right like slow. So I feel like it's opposite. So I'm going. You know what I mean. But that's how. That's how I look at it you know.
Speaker 2:So, um, same here. Anyway, you know, that's just, that's my outlook on it. Drip was over there, confused, you know, but I was like look man, but yeah, I mean, for the most part I feel like the Riders enjoy themselves. I know there's a lot of Peanut butters, yeah, a lot of peanut butters, so it's probably more difficult for them to maneuver for real, but I don't know. We didn't get as much praise, though, I feel like, as last time, so I don't know if that's a sign.
Speaker 1:I mean, it could just be well. One or two things, probably because they were looking forward to all three of us, maybe. Or the other thing is like they just may just be getting used to us yeah, I don't know, I don't know, man, I don't know y'all be parking like y'all be parking like pimping too. Afterwards did anybody say anything to y'all like um, not that.
Speaker 1:I really recall none because, well, because I know um karina, like shout out to karina, like the days that um, drip would do like drip, uh, karina would be like I ain't gonna lie, drip, you're kind of slacking tonight, I ain't gonna lie, like she would tell them that yeah and I and I'd be like, oh shit, that's crazy.
Speaker 2:But um, I mean, so I don't know, it's just so funny how drip is so fed up with skateboarding this place, says the person that's doing the biggest skate night in georgia yeah, but you know, um, make it, make it, yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2:I mean, uh, well, the the only criticism I did was see, I guess my slow set was a little. My second slow set, I think it was a little, I guess, different, but I ain't gonna lie, I'll admit to that. You know what I'm saying. The second one you took a little bit more risk. It wasn't even that, it was just like it wasn't. It didn't flow as well as I wanted it to, I feel like my transition wise, not even.
Speaker 2:It's just more song choice. You know what I'm saying like song choice and all that. Like I didn't really. Oh you, I had a better idea of where I wanted to go on the first low set as opposed to the second one, and then on the second one, like it was kind of like you know, it was still good, but it was just like I, I feel like it could have been tighter. You know what I mean. Right, compared to the first one, but, um, I mean then, especially after, like the one back in july when it was all three of us, you know, like I was locked in for real. So, right, you know, um, but I don't know. At At the same time, I like to take risks. I took a risk. I played a Jeremiah song that I never played before. So I know folks didn't know that record, but um, well, as long as you ain't had a lady.
Speaker 1:That lady coming up to you again Well, not again, but that lady coming up to the DJ booth again, but that lady coming up to the dj booth.
Speaker 2:Yeah, ain't, nobody came up. Nothing crazy, nothing like that. Um, yeah, I mean, I think my favorite part was probably the um, trains and trills. You said trains and trills, yeah, yeah, that's always. Uh, I don't know what it is, but it's something about cascade trains and trills that I just I look forward to that, you know, I mean, it's just hella people on the floor just moving really fast yeah but I don't know. So I'll ask you Do you feel like there's a difference between, like Sparkle and Niche? You know well.
Speaker 1:Well, they're originally a jamscape 's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2:So I feel like there's a difference, you know there's obviously a difference between jamscating and trains and trios. Yeah, so it's like anyway, I don't know, I guess I just get more excited for it in train trios, you know I mean, uh, yeah, I don't think that's not really a, it's not really a comparison.
Speaker 1:Compare, I mean comparing trains and trios to jamskate, because jamskate is more of a solo solo thing trains, trios. You're making trains and trios, so what would you say? The difference is besides that, besides the lining up and all that I mean, I guess, if we're not talking about that, then the music maybe but?
Speaker 2:but do you feel like there's a significant difference in the music or?
Speaker 1:um, you could play more for the jam skaters than trains and trios. Yeah, because all the stuff you could play for um trains and trios you can well. No, no, I lied, it differs. No, it differs because jam skaters don't really much care for like like I don't know, the Baltimore club music but at the same time like, so, like those kind of remixes, but like trains and trills. Folks don't really care for the cheesy pop music. It just depends, I don't know, it just depends from my perspective, that's how I see it.
Speaker 2:Yeah, no, I would agree with you. I feel like, yeah, I feel like training trails, you gotta kind of come with that. You know that hard, that hard joint.
Speaker 1:You know what I'm saying yeah, but at the same time you can throw in some of that baltimore shit, whatever that. That, um, you know, bringing the cats and all that. Yeah, but yeah.
Speaker 2:So yeah, man, it was. I think what I also enjoy about that is the fact that we could like really pay tribute to like Atlanta bass music. You know, right, paid tribute to like Atlanta bass music, you know. So, just like, I kind of like enjoy that aspect of it cause I feel like Cascade, like real Atlanta, you know, and so I feel like you know, whenever I do do the church, that's my time to pay respect to Atlanta for real like stuff that folk may not know, but I don't really care, you know what I'm saying, cause I know what it's honoring and paying tribute to. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1:Is that what the trains and trios is cascade for? Is that what it's for?
Speaker 2:Well, that's how I look at it, you know what I'm saying Just being that cascade is like real West side Atlanta and all that just like real west side atlanta and all that.
Speaker 1:I just be feeling like every time I dj there I gotta play like some of the underground. Yeah, like you know, just put them on.
Speaker 2:You know, saying that that your parents was. You know that they were raised on, that they used to party soon and, um, yeah, I don't know, it's kind of like that's that's how I'd be looking for me personally, that's how I always tribute it, and I feel like you do the same thing in the same, because you play that. Um, my baby daddy, what's that? Boots, oh, rain boots, rain boots.
Speaker 2:You know what I'm saying yeah and so it's like stuff like that. That's like stuff. Unless you was was in Atlanta, you wouldn't know about that. Yeah, for sure, that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1:So shout out to DJ Youngster for putting me on. Shout out to.
Speaker 2:Youngster you did so. It's like it's stuff like that, though you know what I'm saying. You can play songs like that because it's paying tribute to Atlanta.
Speaker 1:So yeah, shout out to Youngster for that one. We used to. Yeah, they used to go up in the parties Rain boots. But yeah, before we move on to the question of the day, I want to give the shout out to the folks buying the merch. Merch still going up Website Website's on the Instagram page.
Speaker 1:If you don't know where to follow me? Follow me at DJ Turn Up T-U-U-R-N-U-U-P. Know where to follow me? Follow me at dj turn up t u u r n? U u p with a dj in front of it. And uh, yeah, and we still doing the giveaway. If you don't know the giveaway is just go on my instagram page. It'll explain everything. The last winner was who's? Oh lex, 223 lex. Shout out to him. Um, but yeah, so um.
Speaker 2:I got well, but yeah, before we get to the question of the day, um yeah, go ahead my roommate had a, had a theory turn up so I was interested. Now it makes sense. So bailout. Monday you was over there on the mic saying talking about Kendrick Lamar. What exactly was the comments you were making about Kendrick Lamar?
Speaker 1:I definitely forgot about that. Shout out to Kendrick Are we referring to the Super Bowl? Yeah, okay, yes. So for the people that don't know, kendrick Lamar is supposedly doing the not supposedly Kendrick Lamar is doing the Super Bowl halftime show for this next Super Bowl. I can't wait to hear this theory.
Speaker 2:Because I know it's coming from one and only so. I didn't. I was unaware as to what you were talking about because I didn't know so you didn't know, I didn't know about the super bowl, oh right, so I didn't you know what I'm saying. I thought you was just like trolling type joint. Oh no, I was like you was. You was definitely trolling, but there was a reason for why you didn't know.
Speaker 1:You didn't know what the joke was, yeah, that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2:So I was over that loss. But, um, so my roommate, my roommate, I talked to him and he was like he was saying how, um, you know, asking me about that, and I was like, oh no, I didn't know anything about it. He's like bro quit playing. I was like I really no, I didn't know anything about it. He's like bro quit playing. I was like I really didn't, I haven't heard about this. But now it makes a lot of sense, because Turnip was talking about something about Kendrick, you know, at Bell out Monday. So I was, you know, now pieces is coming together or whatever, and so he's like, I guess the Super Bowl's in New Orleans. And so he was saying how Wayne wanted to do it, but they chose Kendrick and apparently Jay-Z was in charge of selecting who's supposed to perform at the Super Bowl, or something like that. So I heard about that.
Speaker 1:So I heard yeah, I heard about that. I heard rock nation is like the apparently yeah, but I don't know that.
Speaker 2:I'm not. I haven't checked those sources because there's people saying that like jay-z's not in charge of selecting, like rock nation is, but he's not, you know what I'm saying so, conversation ends.
Speaker 2:Cool, right, I go on to TikTok. And my roommate had posted to TikTok about his theory about the Super Bowl Beautiful. So his theory is that Kendrick is going to perform you know what I'm saying do a couple songs, then he's going to do Not Like Us. Obviously he has to do not like us, but midway through, not like us. J cole and drake are gonna perform first person shooter. Kendrick's gonna perform his unreleased verse on first person shooter pause.
Speaker 1:Didn't know, he had an unreleased verse or first person shooter. Oh, did he tell.
Speaker 2:Oh, oh, so this is you're just telling me everything that's been said on this video, okay so then he said they're all gonna collaborate and then they're gonna bring wayne out and he's gonna finish the show and everybody's gonna win and they're going to squash the beef between Rock Nation, Cash Money, Young Money and Top Dog.
Speaker 1:Top Dog, yeah, top Dog.
Speaker 2:And you know, all parties involved, basically, and everybody wins and hip hop wins and the beef is over.
Speaker 1:Well, ok. So See, I don't, I don't get into, because it's funny. This sounds like. This sounds like us talking about wrestling, like it's like like, oh yeah, so, since he has this storyline going on, this is gonna happen and this is gonna lead to wrestlemania, and then that's gonna lead to him winning the title. Then he's gonna lose the title today. I'm not gonna lie. I kind of don't like like I don't kind of like spoilers like that. Like I mean I could predict all day and night in my head, but like I just don't. If that does happen, I would love it, I would love it, I would love every single part of that right. So if that's the case, I hope it happens. I'll just say that do I see it happening?
Speaker 2:no, but I was to ask you, turner, what is the percentage that you think that will happen?
Speaker 1:30, I feel it, I mean, but at the same time I mean I don't know. Yeah, that's an interesting one, cause I'm pretty sure he has some evidence to back him up on that. I have no evidence to say that.
Speaker 2:You know that's true, or not true or anything like that. I didn't even know Kendrick was doing the Super Bowl, so this is all brand new to me right? Yeah, no, I was definitely. I didn't even know Kendrick was doing the Super Bowl, so this is all brand new to me. Right.
Speaker 1:Yeah, no, I was definitely. Yeah, that was no, that was definitely what I was trolling DJ Rain about, right? So yeah, she was heavily surprised, just like you were, sir.
Speaker 2:So that's his theory. Someone caught someone commented on the post and they said and then I woke up.
Speaker 1:Basically, that definitely sounds like one of those. Yeah, I ain't gonna lie, that's that's. That's a lot. So. So, yes, that's that's a lot to go on, but I mean, hey, I wouldn't be mad at that at all, like I would love.
Speaker 2:I would love to do, I would love to hear something like that, for sure yeah but um so, all right, that that takes us to the uh question of the day, and the question of the day is, unfortunately, um, we had a passing in hip-hop I'm sorry, tanaka, i'ma just.
Speaker 1:I'ma pause you for a second because there was actually there was something I did want to talk about before then, but since you told me that rich homie kwan was the um was the topic, I just left it.
Speaker 1:I just left it and I was just gonna leave it for the question of the day, because I don't actually know what your question of the day is. But if we're acknowledging rich homie, we also have to acknowledge a lot of other people. Oh yeah, because there's a lot of other people that we did not get to talk about, and there actually was a passing today. I don't, I don't know if you know this or not, so not, at all so yeah, um, so I don't know.
Speaker 1:Like I said, I don't know what the question of the day is, but we do have to acknowledge um b king passed away.
Speaker 2:Oh, dang, yeah, yeah b king.
Speaker 1:Uh, fat man scoop um james earl jones. I don't know if you know who james earl jones is. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So um, james earl jones, and as a, as a time people will come right, oh, maybe I don't know he. I just know he was the. Uh, he was a voice actor for mufasa and lion king. Yeah, yeah, older guy, he played the king on coming to america uh, yeah, eddie murphy's, I think he was in field of dreams, probably.
Speaker 1:I'm not gonna lie, I'm running out real big movies, but um, but yeah. So, as the time of us recording um Frankie Beverly's passed away, oh man. So yeah, um, but yeah, oh uh, rich Homie Kwan. Rich Homie Kwan as well. So I don't know if I said Rich Homie Kwan but Frankie Beverly yeah 77, yeah, so um what was your?
Speaker 2:um question of the day or what was the question of the day? Well, my question of the day, man, was just what was it about rich homie that you felt like stuck out? You know saying about him, you know that made him different from, like these, uh, the sea of artists that we listen to, um I'm gonna let you start that off because I'm not gonna lie.
Speaker 1:Uh, my, my answer is going to be a little different and so okay. So, since we're saying that about rich homie is are we do we answer that about all the other?
Speaker 2:I mean not james earl jones, because the actor, but you know yeah, yeah okay, okay, we'll go, we'll do that, okay, so, um, I'll let you, I'll let you answer first, because you're, you're, uh, yeah so I mean, obviously with Rich Homie, like there was definite comparisons when he came out, that he was like future, basically like another future and kind of biting off a future sound, right, and there was a point in which people's ears weren't in tune so that they thought they were the same person, like when they heard the song. But the more that people got in tune with Rich Homie, I found out about Rich Homie Kwan through XXL because they had a top 15 of, like Atlanta, artists that are on the come up and he was on that list. So I checked out all of these artists and the first record I heard from him Was Differences. And when I heard the record, honestly I kind of laughed at it Because when I was listening to it I heard the ad-libs and he's like he was the first person that I ever heard that had ad-libs like that, like Jeezy had ad-libs like ayy and yeah and like all that. But like I don't know, his joint was almost like we always speak about how in hip-hop, how important the hype man was, you know, to a performance, but in a sense Rich Homie like he was his own hype man with the ad-libs, you know, and that joint used to crack me up.
Speaker 2:But then the more I listened to it like, the more it, like it just became catchy and, like you know what I'm saying, added more energy to the record, and so that's one thing that I think about in terms of um. Just, I had never heard anybody else do that at that time. You know Um, obviously we heard you know Waka Flocka, like with the. You know um, obviously we heard you know waka flaka, like with the. You know pow pow, pow, gunshots, stuff like that. I feel like there was other folks that did that, but, like rich homie, it was almost like he was talking to himself yeah, I was gonna say I feel like waka flaka was more on the cheesy side, just sound effects and one word type deals, but yeah and that's why rich homie was so different, because he was just like you know.
Speaker 2:It's almost like he's cheering himself on like let go, let go.
Speaker 1:You know what I'm saying and all that.
Speaker 2:so that's one thing that I would say, and then, as well as the fact that he was rapping, but then it was also, um, I remember reading an article that spoke on just like young thug and future, and rich homie and how, and even migos to an extent, how they were just this new age of, because we obviously had come to this point where R&B and hip hop had blended together, you know, and the old formula of hip hop artists having an R&B singer sing the hook was no longer existing.
Speaker 2:You know, we had the auto-tune era, you know, but this was, this was post auto-tune era, and the fact that, um, these rappers were rapping, but then also like singing, as if their heart was on their sleeve, almost in these records, and so I feel like Rich Homie was definitely one of the forefronts is to you know the people that that kind of led that movement, know the people that that kind of led that movement? And I feel like the influence is evident in a lot of artists today. You know, um, as far as like the, the music that we listen, like the new music that's coming out of this generation, so I feel like those, those are really the attributes that Rich Homie had, I will say I feel like he only had one, like I really feel like he's only had One bad project, one or two bad projects. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1:I know one. What was the second one, the?
Speaker 2:second one was the album for the album, but I don't know if that's really considered a project like that. It kind of went under the radar. It came out after. You know, ask Royal Rich. You know, oh, yeah, so, but he even admitted to it about.
Speaker 2:About that whole situation is that he was you know, I was he was addicted to molly for two years to the point that like he was popping a molly before he even brushed his teeth, like it was that bad, and so that's. He was saying that that was around the time that he came out with that that project, yeah, and you know, saying, obviously he on top of the world with flex, because that was going crazy, but he was basically spiraling out of control. You know, at that point, when was he ever Now, when we speak on just how he came back? After that, I know the spotlight wasn't on him anymore. You know, like, obviously hip hop is a very fickle, you know, genre. So basically, once you fall off, it is extremely hard to get that flame back, you know, and that's what yeah, you basically have to get it back real quick before it completely yeah.
Speaker 2:And that's why I talked to Big Steveve about you know, big steve is just, he would always tell me, just like bro, once the wave is gone, bro, it's gone, you know, and and once you fall off, and not not in it, somebody gonna take your spot or a new sound gonna develop and you just, you know, a relic of those years, basically know. So I will say he came out with strong bodies of work after that. But I will say, only rich homie fans, you know, knew about it. I wouldn't say that. You know, the whole world was tuned in like that for real, right. But so yeah, that's, uh, that's my main statement. I would say, um, yeah, it's, it's frustrating because, honestly, what? What?
Speaker 2:Rich on me and trouble, those are like my two, those are my two favorites from Atlanta, and so for them to pass around the same age, I think, or maybe the same age for them to pass at that age is crazy.
Speaker 2:Because, from what I understand about Trouble, he was in a very good place at that time, like through all the trials and tribulations that he went through, he was in a very good place at like at that time, like through all the trials and tribulations that he had went through. He was in a good spot, like he had just bought his parents a new house and all that and I feel like was really happy. Apparently, rich homie was in the same space. He was still partying, you know, saying obviously which, which unfortunately led to his death, but he was in a good space in terms of with his family and like his children and, um, you know, he just sounded happy. You know I missed all the label troubles that he had to deal with and all of that before. So it's just unfortunate that once they found that happiness you know that's when they had to leave.
Speaker 1:Right, not gonna lie Wasn't the biggest Rich Homie fan. I mean, there were a couple songs that stood out to me and, just like you, differences was the first song I heard from him. I didn't really think much of the song, but I do remember the impact it had. Once I was doing parties because this was I was probably like three or four years into djing I had while I was in atlanta at that point and um, yeah, it hit the um. I don't know if it hit the radio, but I know it hit. Uh, it hit the clubs, hit the clubs and the parties real hard. And I I was like, yeah, I need to find this song. I need to find this song because this joint is impacting me, well, impacted the parties real crazy.
Speaker 1:And I'm not going to lie, I was a part of that crowd of people. I was like, bro, he just sounds like a baby future, like, that's what he sounds like to me. Is that he just sounds like a baby future? That's what he sounds like to me is that he just sounds like a baby future. But the only thing I could say about Rich Homie is that he was. What makes him stand out over all the artists to me isn't necessarily his music, it's just that okay. So that situation you remember that situation that we recorded um episode seven, the and that's my rich homie kwan story yeah, that's what makes him stand out to me was the fact that my stepfather told me about this person, right, and was like, yeah, he got this, he got that and, you know, got this.
Speaker 1:And I was looking for this song for so long, looking for these songs for so long, finally found it. And once I found it, I see that his CD is sitting right there on the counter and I looked at it and I'm like there's no fucking way, this was Rich Homie Quan sitting here the whole time. And then I will say this one thing about me I may have my opinions on something, but I won't never be a hater. That may have my opinions on something, but I'll, I won't, I won't never be a hater. That's how you make your money, bro. Shine, shine is shine as bright as the star will. Let you type shit. So once he um made it to the, it was either the BET awards or the hip hop awards and he had performed. I was like hey, early, you know, like that's the guy that sold you the um cd at the mall and he was like, wow, that's dope.
Speaker 2:So, yeah, that that's what makes, that's what makes rich homie stand out to me, the fact that he put in the grind, when he was you know nothing, and made it into something, yeah so yeah, yeah, it was interesting to hear him talk about that because he was saying how, when he got out of jail, like he was so hungry, you know, and that was evident on his first you know a few projects, and so after you know he left the spotlight, he had to rediscover how to get that hunger back, because obviously it's not going to be the same, because he has money now you know, it's not like he could just go back to the mall.
Speaker 2:Just that's what I'm saying, yeah so he had to really take a step back and kind of think of how to not necessarily just find a different type of hunger and, and I feel like that was reflected in his music, right, you know, it was obviously it's not, as you know, uh, pain-stricken, but I would say a little more polished, and it's just unfortunate because I feel like he was, he was starting to develop into a new sound. You know, that's a more mature, mature Kwan, you know.
Speaker 1:But yeah, man well, yeah, lonely Rich Homie, yeah, and if you want to hear the full story, if you want to hear the full story on the rich homie kwan um situation that I had, you can either. So you can either go to the um, episode seven, which is called, and that's my Rich Homie Kwan Story, or you can go on our Instagram page, the TNT podcast, thetntpodcast, and it's the most recent post. It's just been posted on there in tribute to Rich Homie Kwan. Yeah, so, yeah. So, tanaka, let me ask you this what's your, uh, what's your thoughts on um? What was your first, or your, I guess? I guess? The same question, I guess, just for B King, I guess.
Speaker 2:I want to say the first record I heard from B King was, I think, thick. Is that a song? I mean, it's a song, yeah, what is it?
Speaker 1:Well, he's featured. It's DJ Cho's.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's what I'm saying, though what was that? I don't know. What was your first?
Speaker 1:So my first time hearing B King Okay, let me see if I can find a year on this, because here's the thing, right, there was a time I felt like and maybe this is just because I was a DJ at the time but there was a time like a year that I feel like everybody in a mama was coming out with a twerk song and like it was like I couldn't tell who, I couldn't tell who was popular or who was who wasn't, and it was just like I don't know, it was just really weird.
Speaker 1:So, like at first, at first b king kind of fell into that like he fell into that like type of deal where it was like I couldn't tell. I couldn't tell, like if he was like well, obviously you couldn't because he's like just coming up, but okay, yeah, 2015 soundbar, oh damn. That was the first time I heard b king. Okay, he had a song called um throw that ass and I was like okay, so I had the song and I would play it sometimes, but like it was just kind of like I mean it's cool, but then I started realizing that, like, people actually do fuck with the song. So like I was like, okay, it was one of those where I was like okay, well, I guess, if I have to play it, like they fuck with it, so I guess I'll play it.
Speaker 2:But I will say that yes when um well, the question is how did you even get that song?
Speaker 1:um, it was. I feel like it was a so before I got a record pool.
Speaker 1:It was a um, it was a website that djs used to have called dj service pack and I feel like it was on. I feel like it was on that website and it was, yeah, and that was just one of the songs that I had, because, bro, there were hella twerk songs, like I said, that were coming out around that time, um, and that was just one of them and I had it and, honestly and truthfully, I don't think I ever played it. I mean, I probably played it like once or twice, but then I seen the impact that it like had on like parties and shit, and I was like, oh shit, like I should probably start playing this again because they fuck with it. But I probably will say the first time that I like started paying attention to B King. I feel like it was thick, but I feel like there was something in between that I don't know what it was. I'm gonna see if I can see, if I can find it for.
Speaker 2:B King. Yeah, I'm gonna see if I can see if.
Speaker 2:I can find it for B King. Yeah, yeah, thick was. I think Thick was my introduction to B King and I just remember how catchy his part was and everybody was rocking with it, you know. And then I feel like shortly after, that is when just more and more B King records became hits as far as his influence and just what was different about him. I feel like he had a pretty distinct voice, man, you know, like for sure, yeah, and I feel like because of that, uh, it's, it's funny, because as DJs we always speak on like how women want to be directed in the song, you know, and like he was like basically the epitome of that. You know, like every record was like you know him, like really talking it and it's like being that he was a dj, like he knows, you know how folks want to be in the club.
Speaker 2:He was a dj too yeah, I think he was a dj before he got into actually making songs and stuff, and so yeah, so it's just he had that background and then he started rapping and really he stuck out too, because he would always wear them crazy shirts.
Speaker 1:And it was funny. That was interesting about that too was because it would look like he would be wearing the same thing over and over, because he would always wear the all black. He was always all black and then have the raunchy, whatever the fuck you know, mom pleaser or some shit like that, I don't know Some crazy shit like that.
Speaker 2:Your girlfriend gave me your mixtape and it was trash.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it would be like some jokey shit like that. So B King definitely had a sense of humor.
Speaker 2:It was always something stupid. So, yeah, I think that's what that's the beauty of that, right. Okay, so I did discover. So I think that's what that's the that's the beauty of that Right.
Speaker 1:So okay, so I did discover, so that he was doing stuff In between Throw that Ass and Thick. So I remember he did come out With songs with K Stylus Do you remember that name? Yeah, yeah, so like I remember he was coming out With. He was just coming out With songs Like, but it didn't really hit on nothing, I feel like until thick, but for sure throw that ass was like holding him until thick and then that's when, um, because I think he's a producer too, isn't he?
Speaker 2:yeah, because he don't want to do the dude.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I feel like that's what made him stand out too. He didn't actually have like a, like a b king, it was like it was a sound.
Speaker 2:it was a sound. Yeah, it was a sound.
Speaker 1:So yeah, I think that was pretty dope too. Um, and what's interesting, it's funny, I remember it's not, it's a lot of songs, but I feel like, at the same time, it's not a lot of songs that I feel like I remember where I was when I discovered this song, or somebody told me about this song. Um, I don't remember feels. Yes, it was um, um, it was at rumors. Shout out to uh, shout out to rumors. Um, this is when I, this is when tonic used to dj at rumors. Um, alvin ac, shout out to ac.
Speaker 1:He actually played thick and I was like, bro, what is this? This is before it like got popping. And he was like, oh, it's called thick because what, what? Uh, that is the one about B-King is that he'll have a way of saying something, and that'll be like. I'll be like, wow, that's actually pretty clever, cause she a fool on that. And I just thought that was like the most cleverest shit ever. I was like, wow, I need this song, this song is fucking hilarious. I was like, wow, I need this song, this song is fucking hilarious.
Speaker 1:And then I remember after that, um, he had told me about, um, he was like, oh, yeah, bro you, you like, yeah, thick, thick is cool, but, bro, you got to get his other song come, I mean then leave. And I was like, oh shit. And then I heard it and I was like, ah yeah, that's yeah. And what's actually ironic about that was after I got off the phone with AC and he told me about that.
Speaker 1:I got on the phone with Kool and I was shout out DJ Kool. And I was telling him because of course, kool's question is always oh yeah, what was that new? Some songs you listen to bro. And I was like, yeah, well, ac just told me about this song called um then leave, by b king. He was, oh yeah, brother, that joint, that's my killing the radio right now. Man, I gotta get that song, you got that song, you got this, I need that song. And I was like, um, yeah, I think I got it. And so so, yeah, that um. Yeah, bruh b king definitely had that call and response on on lock for sure, because that if your pussy cream, if your pussy clean, then scream like gets them every time yeah, that's um.
Speaker 2:So that's the beauty of it is that because folks you know that they like man he rapped about the same stuff every time, but the beauty of it and the genius of it is that he's still able to make it catchy and like, say it in so many different ways, even though he's talking about the same type of stuff every time. That's funny.
Speaker 1:You were talking about somebody, about that, somebody that did something like that yeah, I can't even call but they were able to say the exact same thing over again.
Speaker 2:But like, still make hits or something, yeah, and that's a talent in itself, you know, and um, I just think the beauty of it is that, even though the stuff is like hella raunchy, it's like his personality kind of like offset it in a sense, because he was so funny and just like entertaining, so it like I feel like it kind of know like how offensive it could come across. You know what I mean.
Speaker 1:So but just like Chris Rock said in his little stand up, bro, females love being disrespected in these songs. Well, I don't know if that's what Chris Rock said, but I remember put a dick in the ear. Dick in the ear, fucking in the eyes. It's like they all say the same thing. He ain't talking about me, so that's just funny. But, um, but, yeah, bro, be king. Definitely, and was actually interesting. This is around the time where, uh, we didn't have dj drip, we had drip king and I was telling. I was like hey, bro, you should come out with a twerk tape and like, what you got to do is I promise you, bro, you just need two things you need to be disrespectful as fuck and give them some instructions. Females love both of them. Shits and yeah.
Speaker 1:And I think that's how Scammer was made. Shout out to Scammer.
Speaker 2:That's interesting, though, because I wonder if there's a similar formula for gangster music.
Speaker 1:Probably All you need is this and this and you're in there. Probably it probably is. Yeah man, long live B King. I'm not gonna lie, uh, fat man scoop was kind of before my time. I mean, I don't really know a lot about fat man scoop. Uh, I mean, of course I know of the um. I will say this that this is what intrigued me about fat man scoop and maybe this information is out there for me to see, but I just haven't looked for it. But it always intrigued me of how he was able to get the uh clearance to love like this, to put out that uh, that um remix he does. If you put your hands up and make noise, cause that's obviously love like this. And he just just screamed all over it what's your zodiac sign? I never understood that. I never understood how he was able to to do that.
Speaker 2:But um, yeah, no, he um. Yeah, he. He was on a lot of remixes surprisingly, um. There's a, there's a. There's a version of uh, get busy, that he's on sean paul's on yeah, oh, didn't know that and, um, yeah, it just, uh, it's just in.
Speaker 2:It's. I feel like there's a whole bunch of because, you know, back in back in that day they was releasing a whole bunch of like I feel like remixes, just as singles or as 12-inches. You know that wasn't on albums and stuff, and it was kind of like you had to know, like you had to be out there during that time to really know about those records, or like DJs would only know about those Right records, or like djs would only know about those right, and so, um, but yeah, man, that's like just a legendary hype man right there, you know, fat man, scoop man. This is that's. Uh, once again, another one with a very distinct voice very much so you know, and really energized, whatever record he was on you know.
Speaker 2:Um, yeah, it's crazy. They say he died of a heart attack and then it was on stage, it was on stage yeah, I'm assuming you've never seen it. Yeah, I haven't seen.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I yeah I, I didn't want to see it. I usually don't. I don't like watching shit like that.
Speaker 2:Honestly, I didn't know what the fuck I was watching, and I saw it and I was like mother, I don't know. I guess at the same time, though, he died doing what he loved, you know.
Speaker 1:Yeah, is that what they call a catch-22, or is that, or is that something different?
Speaker 2:yeah, is that what you say?
Speaker 1:that yeah in a sense yeah, so yeah, man, long live fat man scoop. Uh, and I think the last one was I feel like I'm missing somebody, but I'll make sure I'm not missing anybody, okay, yeah, so the last one was.
Speaker 1:Frankie Beverly. So I know you probably won't have a lot to say about Frankie Beverly, but I mean, obviously this was all before both of our times. But one distinct thing about Frankie Beverly was my grandfather. That was definitely his time of music and anytime we'd be riding with him anywhere, like it would either be James Brown, gladys Knight, um, frankie Beverly or somebody somebody else, but those only those only three. That like, really like stood out to me, especially James Brown. I used to love James Brown but, um, stood out to me especially james brown. I used to love james brown but um, yeah, man, frankie beverly just had that music that like I was able to pick back up when I was older and be like, like, just appreciate the music of it, like equivalent to I mean not equivalent to, but prime example um, golden time of day like of course we hear Before I Let Go all the time that gets all the cookouts and stuff started and all that stuff. But yeah, bro, that Golden Time of Day.
Speaker 1:I totally forgot about that song. And what's actually interesting about Frankie Beverly and Maze? There's actually another song that I forgot about, called when I'm Alone, because a lot of these songs I never knew the names of them, because these are all on CDs and my grandfather's just playing it. He's just playing it in his car. So, yeah, man, he was performing shit. I feel like he was still performing and I think they say he was like 77. So, yeah man, lonely Frankie Beverly man, another one that went out doing what he loved doing.
Speaker 2:Yeah no, definitely I don't know my bag Go ahead.
Speaker 1:Oh, and I think that was all I had to say.
Speaker 2:Yeah, no, I just think back the first time I heard Frankie Beverly. It was my college classmate, candace she. She had played it for me because I didn't really know about it, but her whole family really rocked with Frankie Beverly and Maze. So she kind of put me on to them. And then I did some homework and I realized that that girl, that song in ACL, was them Southern Girl when they had the pool. I didn't you know. So I did more research. I was like, oh so that's Frankie Beverly May. And then just what you know obviously everybody know before I let go, but I think you were the one that actually put me on to this song. Good Feelings, oh, you mean Happy Feelings. Happy Feelings, my bad Happy Feelings.
Speaker 2:I mean probably you know, I don't know, anyway, that's just one of my favorite. Know, I don't know, anyway, that's just one of my favorite records.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I don't know when I started realizing that they started playing before I let go in the club. But I ain't going to lie. When I first heard like when I first because I ain't going to lie At first I mean, after a while it's kind of like the normal. Now it's like the norm, like every old school set is gonna have four late. I ain't gonna lie, bro. The first time I heard that shit played in the club, bro, I got so geeked like I was like bro, what the fuck am I before I let go like what? Like this is the shit I heard.
Speaker 2:when I was like yeah, on a track practice when I was like seven I was about to say what age were you when you first heard Frankie Beverly?
Speaker 1:Probably like seven or eight. Probably like seven or eight, maybe six. I mean, I was probably like seven or eight. Probably yeah, because I was running track.
Speaker 2:And so that's another thing that I feel like. I feel like because you went to, went to cookouts right growing up um, I mean, yeah, my parents had cookouts and stuff like that. Yeah, and did they play?
Speaker 1:they played it um, honestly and truthfully, I I don't remember. It'd be a mixture of different stuff because, like I said, frankie Beverly and Frankie Beverly and Maze is only real intimate for me and, like my grandfather, Like at the cookouts. It would be, you know, tina Marie Luther Vandross. Right, like I hate it. Maybe like the modern hip hop that was playing that time, maybe some little old school hip hop, right, whatever. But yeah, my grandfather like Frankie Beverly, that's, he gets all the praise for that.
Speaker 2:For sure. Yeah, I just nah, the reason I say that is just because obviously I wasn't. You know cookouts is like a regular. You know, I feel like thing for well, I guess any folk could have a cookout, but I just, I don't know, I feel like black cookouts know they be, they really be jamming with the music, you know I'm saying, and so I never had that experience coming up. You know. So I didn't. A lot of these songs I had to learn about through other folks, you know, because I didn't experience, like you know, at the cookout they put on, you know, frankie beverly and just be grooving as a family to that. You know. So, um, but yeah, so anyway, I can only imagine what it's like growing up listening to it just in like a, you know, regular day-to-day setting, to hearing it in the club.
Speaker 1:You know it's like crazy that, you know bro, and that's probably the last time I probably heard it was with my grandfather. So when I hear yeah, I'm like what, it's crazy so not even thinking about, not even think, because in my head I'm thinking like bro, I haven't heard this since like california. Not even thinking that, because in my head I'm thinking, bro, I haven't heard this since, california.
Speaker 2:Not even thinking that Brinkley Beverly and Maze is a Southern. Ain't Brinkley Beverly a Southern group? That's my assumption. I actually didn't do the research on where they originally from the members and stuff but the person she was from Pittsburgh, but I knew she had family in the South too, though. Right, that's where I figured that she learned about it. Then, on top of that, the song Southern Girl, Southern Girl.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that's one of the up-tempo joints. I need to add that to my joint too. But yeah, man, one of the up-tempo joints. Yeah, I need to add that to my joint too. But yeah, man, yeah, long live all these artists, man, because you guys will be missed, they'll must. So I just feel like a lesson is learned from I mean, of course, rich Homie. Y'all just need to put these drugs down.
Speaker 1:It's as simple as that. But when it comes to B King and Fat man Scoop and I can't tell you what they were or were not doing, maybe that's just something they want to keep private and they just was here for a good time, not a long time. But, yeah, man, y'all need to go check these doctors out. Man, make sure everything is running right. Or somebody go check with somebody, make sure your body is running right, because you never know, your body just might shut down on you for many reasons. So, yeah, man, just get checked out, everybody get checked out. But, um, yeah, we're gonna keep it moving. What do we got next? What Guess the Bars is?
Speaker 1:I give Tanaka some bars from some hip-hop songs. He does the same thing for me. We read it out, try to figure out who it is. If we can figure it out, we judge it on the F scale, which is 5 to 1. Fire, ferocious, flat, frisbee and fecal. And yeah, we just go from there. See if we can figure it out. We say the first time we heard it and yeah, go from there.
Speaker 2:Looks like Tanaka is gonna start us off a real bitch. But that body built like a doll, I ain't no competition with these hoes at all. I wish it on a bakery way. Ninjas bring the cake to me, and if that boy a baller, I bet I can make him play for me. Um, I'm gonna get us a flat, flat fur. Um, can play for me. I'm going to get some flat fur. I feel like this is like a late 2010s artist, a female rapper. But I ain't going to lie, it's a lot of them, a lot of them out there. So I don't know who this is. Yeah, it's a lot of them talking that. You know I'm that bit. You know what I'm saying out there. Right, it's a lot of them talking that. You know I'm that bit.
Speaker 1:You know what I'm saying All that stuff, you know.
Speaker 2:Right.
Speaker 1:So you were. You were right. It was one of those, and you were right. Late 2010s Um, megan Thee Stallion. Oh god, this is uh. Do it On the Tip. Are you familiar with that song?
Speaker 2:Yeah, that was with City Girls, right. Yep, yeah, dang, that was with City Girls, right. Yep, yeah, dang, that was. Yeah. It's crazy how that's a very vague memory, that song.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I'm not going to lie, I thought that song would have been bigger, I'm not going to lie. And then it just kind of just it's kind of a little blip.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you know it wasn't really.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it wasn't really hitting on nothing, that was a couple songs. There was a couple songs from Megan. I thought would have been bigger, like that Ride or Die song. I thought that song would have been like one of the New Orleans yeah, and it just.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Nothing All right. So let's see what's the business. Baby, can I get in them draws? I like the way your fans rub against my balls cuz you, the one, a nigga, mad ass, out the cab mall with your pretty brown skin, thick thighs and all 135, petite, and you smell, and your smell is unique. Maybe we can exchange numbers and hook up in a week. Oh you a freak. I knew it from the first time I saw you, the way you play with your tongue, I knew right then I would call you. So I'm not going to lie. Trillville, some cut. I'm not going to lie to you, bro, I don't know any of their names, so I'm going to just take which verse.
Speaker 2:Which verse First, second or third, All right.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:I don't know any of their names.
Speaker 1:But yeah, this is.
Speaker 2:This is some cut trivial, but um yeah, so this verse about don p, don p, okay.
Speaker 1:Um, yeah, yeah. Oh, my bad, uh, I'm sorry. Uh, I mean it's real descriptive. I'll give it a. I can appreciate him being descriptive. Um, flat, I give it flat, it's all right. Um, what's interesting about what's interesting about this song is this was around the time when this song came out. This was not when I this is like right before I moved to Georgia and this song was big and I knew it was big because they're from Atlanta and they made it to California. So, um, this was when I was my mom had an iTunes account and she would let me buy like songs on iTunes to just have. And I remember this song had, um, the, the, the clean version, for some reason, when I bought it on iTunes still had the juggle my balls part in it and I was like I don't remember this part on the song, so that that that always stuck out to me and I I know I never I like kind of played it and hushed like didn't want my mom to hear type of deal. But yeah, so yeah, some good.
Speaker 2:I just got a bad bitch. She don't talk no English and my car go real fast. I hit that gas and I leave, and I'm scared of water, but I rock your boat like a Leah. Shadi know that I won't ever go. She know that I ain't ever going to leave her. I want a Michael Jackson beat. I promise to tell none of your secrets. I mean, at least he's honest man. Man. He said he's scared of water. I can appreciate the Aaliyah Michael Jackson references. I give this a flat. I don't know who this is, though no guesses yeah, I don't know who that is.
Speaker 1:I'ma just say this this is actually interesting that you chose this one. The fact that you chose this one out of all of them Is actually amazing. So this is Rich on Mequine Beautiful. That's off of a song called you Know.
Speaker 2:You Know? Yeah, I don't know which project.
Speaker 1:Are you familiar?
Speaker 2:with you Know? Yeah, I don't know which project that one's off of May have been a loose single.
Speaker 1:That's what it's looking like, leaked from the cancelled Rich Gang album with Young Thug and Birdman with guests.
Speaker 2:I probably heard it. That was supposed to be the second one, the second Rich on me album. I know there was like a leaked version that had like 12 songs, so I think that might have been one of the records.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's so crazy because one of the songs on that unreleased joint said brain nickels wait what exactly, I was reading the title like oh, that's the name of the song, it's brain yeah but they're talking about brian nickels, so I'm why didn't they just spell it Brian? Nichols, they probably just misspelled it and just never got back to it.
Speaker 2:I don't know, it's just. It's everywhere, though, like literally. If you look up, it's spelled Brian Nichols, like everywhere.
Speaker 1:So I just you know. Look bro, they was rushing and they just never finished it Cause it never got released. Nobody's gonna hear this anyway, so whatever.
Speaker 2:Yeah, hella, people Blame.
Speaker 1:Nichols, that's funny. Anyway, let's see Champagne, cork pop, like we all made it. Y'all looking from the sidelines, we all hate it. Money, don't make it real, don't give a fuck till it's 80 mil pussy. And just cause you got a Bentley, that Bentley don't make it, make you thorough pussy.
Speaker 1:Still hating me from my city. I'm thinking they for real pussies, cause all I got to say is kill. They'll come like the navy seals. That's word to my mama. I promise I ain't doing no block and we shoot at you robbers and kill all you fuck niggas talking. Um, I was gonna say rich homie Kwan, I mean, I'm rich homie Kwan, I'm tripping. I was gonna say uh, 21, savage, because he's known for saying pussy in every ad lib, but I don't think I've ever heard him say word to my mama. So I guess some I don't know, I don't know Still hating me for myself. Um, this is flat, this is another flat, this is. So I was gonna say 21. But yeah, no, I don't know. I'll probably say some up north rapper, because he said word to my mama Even then, mama, I don't hear a New York rapper saying mama, word to my mom, word to your mom, I don't know. Some up north shit. I don't know that's what I'm going to go with Some up north shit.
Speaker 2:So this is Meat Mill Beautiful.
Speaker 1:There you go.
Speaker 2:Yeah, a record called Lord Knows, featuring Toy Lames. It was off of the Dreams Worth More Than Money album.
Speaker 1:Is that the one with the red background and the money? Oh, right before you fell off.
Speaker 2:Went from quarter to broke to half past rich with my badass bitch. And you don't want no problems on some math class shit, so check the young genius out, fuck the world, bust a nut and let my semen sprout. I thought that real shit is what you've been fiending about, what you've been praying for, what you've been screaming about Ironic. You've been sleeping on the one that you've been dreaming about. Oh man, dang it what? Because I know this. But now I got gotta see if I can shoot your shot. Shoot your shot, bro. This is a ferocious fire, yeah, fire. Yeah, this is J Cole. Damn. I feel like it's all of that first mixtape that he hit. What you been praying for, damn. I can't remember the song. Yeah, I just know it's J Cole, right?
Speaker 2:Correctamundo, sir, yeah, I can't remember the song man.
Speaker 1:So the reason why you can't remember this song is because this isn't a jay cole song. This is a feature. It's a song called looking for trouble, for trouble, and I just hit me yeah it just it just hit me so it sounds like you know this song. When's the first time you heard looking for trouble, sir?
Speaker 2:um, when it came out because that was part of the good friday series and uh, yeah, I really I was super excited. Every good friday I was just like man, it's gonna be the one. It's amazing, bro, you know. And then, not to mention side how the Prince is on this record as well.
Speaker 1:Oh, beautiful, Even makes it so much better right, yeah, you know. Right.
Speaker 2:Anyway, moving along from fucking Saha Dang, that was J Cole. Snapped on that, though, for real, that's the Cole that.
Speaker 1:That's the Cole I want.
Speaker 2:That's the Cole you want. Yeah, man, you know what I took the I really did. You really listen to that tape that he dropped the delete this joint? No, I still haven't listened to it. I'm not gonna lie. Yeah, I'm not gonna lie.
Speaker 1:I was like okay, cole, actually, like he's been, he's a little aggressive and I I liked it, you know yeah, but I can't I don't I didn't listen to it because he apologized, so I'm like I don't even listen to this, bro, like well, you gotta understand, turn up.
Speaker 2:He gave you the precursor man. He said he might delete. He said he might delete it.
Speaker 1:So he did you know, he did, he deleted it.
Speaker 2:So I'm saying but the project is still there On Spotify. My service or my platform.
Speaker 1:Title oh, got you.
Speaker 2:Oh, interesting.
Speaker 1:Okay, I mean, I'm pretty sure it's still on YouTube if I really want to hear it or whatever, but they may not apologize, so fuck them. It's crazy all the things she do to try to get with me Yup, always trying to get me. Say, she's flying to my city, yep, she's doing anything just to get my attention? Yep, but I got a lot to do, girl, just wait until I'm finished. Yo, when I can't answer, she'd be blowing on my phone. Yeah, trying to hang with my sister every time I'm gone. Yeah, every time you gone. Yeah, every time I'm gone, yep, yep. I feel like this is like some 2000s, like early 2000s. Yeah, this is 2000s. I feel like this is 2000s. And if this is anything, if this is anything after 2011,. It's coming off really cheesy, but I'ma go 2000s. Yeah, I don't know, bro. Uh, I'll give it a, I'll give it a flat first B. It's like 2.9. It's giving real 2.89-ish. I don't know. I don't know, I don't know. But yeah, that's what I got. I don't know. What do we got Tanaka?
Speaker 2:Trying to hang with my sister Every time I'm gone, every time I'm gone, this is Jibz.
Speaker 1:Beautiful.
Speaker 2:This is Jibz Speech, playing Melody Thornton of the Pussycat Dolls A song called Go Too Far.
Speaker 1:Sounds yeah, 2000s. It has 2000s written on it. To another pussycat doll is a song called Go Too Far Sounds yeah, 2000s. It has 2000s written on it. Definitely, definitely For sure?
Speaker 2:No, it's just funny. I thought of you the other day because I listened to LL Cool J's I'm Bad album.
Speaker 1:Okay, go ahead, finish that.
Speaker 2:No, I was listening to the project and it was pretty dope, top to bottom, pretty dope, it's just. It made me think of the time period. Um, it made me think of the time period and so, like some, some lines just kind of come off a little corny. It just, yeah, some of some of the lines were just kind of corny or whatever. But like, when I think of the time, I'm sure it wasn't, you know, it wasn't corny, yeah. And then also, so it made me think of will smith and I was like you know what, maybe we gotta just a touch, just a touch, you know that's a little different, because I feel, like they felt.
Speaker 1:I felt like they felt like he was soft back then for real. Okay, I guess I gotta talk to more ogs so I'm glad you brought up LL Cool J, because this is the point that was brought up. So Shout out to DJ Tonic. He brought up a question, so I just want to get your opinion, because you know Tonic gets real left with his opinions.
Speaker 2:So I just remember the other day you asked me Tanaka, have you ever listened to LL Cool J ever?
Speaker 1:Cause, I'm not gonna lie, ll Cool J gets real like, I mean gets left out of the conversation Of like lyricists Because he's just so much older. Like nobody really thinks of LL Cool J Cause, like he was doing it in like the 80s, 90s, by the 2000s he's I won't love you baby.
Speaker 2:He was with Rakim and them. Yeah, you need to rock him, though you know rock him is fucking nuts like that.
Speaker 1:Shit's crazy. But nah so, okay. So so, tanaka, who, who you going with? Uh, lyric, lyrically, lo koo jay or kendrick lamar, and I'm pretty sure you can guess who tonic I'm going to just say Tonic is a product of his time.
Speaker 2:Because, yeah, I'm going, kendrick Lamar Like hands down, like I don't Hands down, like Put the microphone in his face In the sand. Sometimes I sit in my room.
Speaker 1:I need love, Don't we all? Don't we all? I need love, Don't we all LO Don't we?
Speaker 2:all. I do need to listen to his new album, though I am intrigued, bro, this blunt unroll, what you mean, bro? He had a record with Sweetie. Bro, this blunt unroll and lace, I only smoke swishers, smoke swisher. Great white, my ninja threw me a free zip. You know I'm finna face. We got him out of space. I'm highest. Get out my face. Yeah, it's a frisbee. This does nothing for me, man. I just hope the beat is good on this record.
Speaker 1:So this is your favorite female rapper, sexy Red. It's off a song called Free Smoke.
Speaker 2:Haven't heard it. This is a new record, or is this?
Speaker 1:Sexy Red bro? I don't know.
Speaker 2:I don't know, no idea. But I'm not gonna lie, I don't know, no idea, but I'm not gonna lie this.
Speaker 1:LL Cool J I heard some of the singles and you know my favorite songs from him are all his collaborative shits. 4-3-2-1 and I Shot you, those are my favorite songs by LL Cool J.
Speaker 2:I was a real big fan of Hush. I'm not gonna lie. I'm not gonna lie. I don't know what it was, but that's why I'm happy for you, bro.
Speaker 1:You and I white dress, flowers and a suit and tie Me, and you, bonnie and Clyde, no beat the case. We are do or die. Who am I to say? You ain't natural. Your haters, my haters, ain't switching up, baby. I got you, I'm with her like a tattoo. The way you wear that dress. They ain't they gonna oh, they gonna attack you. The way you look at me, baby, I got you. Hit it from the front. I like the back too. She says lay down so I can ride you. Well, I can appreciate that, because they're getting married. Well, that's what it sounds like. They're getting married. I don't know. I'll give it a flat for Roche's. I can appreciate pleasing your woman and riding and dying for her.
Speaker 1:I have no idea who this is. If I were to just take a shot in the dark, I would say Childish Gambino, chance the Rapper, because I remember his last album. They were complaining because he just kept talking about his baby mama, but then again, this can't be him, because he's always talking about his baby mama and they never got married. So no, not Chance the Rapper. I don't know who this is. Who is this? Tanaka?
Speaker 2:This is a work called my Beyonce by Lil Durk, featuring Dej Lo.
Speaker 1:Jesus Christ, I'm a fan of. Dirk when he raps, not a real big fan of him when he.
Speaker 2:That's a soul right there, man. You know my Beyonce.
Speaker 1:Lil Dirk, coming soon To a soulful Sunday near you. I saw the time. It's so right there, man, you know my Beyonce Lil Durk, coming soon to a soulful Sunday near you.

Speaker 1:Man these lyrics are Like. I feel like all the lyrics that I said and the lyrics you said Could've just been in one song.
Speaker 2:That's what I'm saying, bro. We I don't know what is this telling us? Turn up, I don't know. We supposed to? We supposed to call some Right? Call a little yell, you know what I mean. Um, what supposed to call some right? Call a little yell, you know? And um, what they say love is in the air. Ladies and gentlemen, um, let me see, uh, yeah, I could respect it, bro, I get a flat for flat for Ojas Because, bro, loyalty I F with that man. You know, loving, loyalty, man, it's a beautiful thing, hard to find, but a beautiful thing, right Dang. I'm trying to. This almost sounds like an r&b singer, but I know that these are rap lyrics. So, um, trying to think female rappers, I'm gonna just say Trina, bro.
Speaker 1:So You're wrong, but you are right. Well, you're kinda right Because you said it sounds like R&B lyrics. Well, it's because it was on an R&B song. Um, this is Cardi B. This is off a song called Heaven On my Mind. Are you familiar with Heaven On my Mind? You you familiar with Heaven On my Mind? You talking about that skate shit?
Speaker 2:bro, that's what you talking about, bro.
Speaker 1:I mean they could skate to it, I guess yeah.
Speaker 2:Isn't that some Jersey shit bro?
Speaker 1:I mean, she's from New York, right, she from, she from North.
Speaker 2:so I wonder if I made it I don't think I've ever made it to her verse on the song.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so yeah, she's on that song.
Speaker 2:I'm going to have to re-listen. Well, I'll probably play it at Soulful Sunday. You ain't playing that shit. It's in my Soulful Sunday folder.
Speaker 1:So that was the last one for you. Yeah, okay, I was up all night counting them. Benjamins Haters, eavesdropping Is that how you spell eavesdropping?
Speaker 2:I don't think I ever know how to spell eavesdropping, if that's how you spell eavesdropping.
Speaker 1:So I'll start it over. I was up all night counting them. Benjamins, hat haters, eavesdropping, say they saw me in a bins. Bitch you guilty until proven innocent. She want to fuck with me so she can get these benefits. Ho, I ain't stupid, I ain't crazy. Must be out your mind. Um no, I got my back and I ain't talking spine, no vertebrae. But I heard you say that you and me. You see the difference. There could never be two of them. I ain't gonna lie, bro, that's this frisbee, bro, this shit is all over the place. This shit is not it. This shit, this. I ain't gonna lie, I know I got my back. I ain't talking spine, no vertebrae. This shit, just. I ain't gonna lie. I know I got my back, I ain't talking spine. No, bro, that shit is kind of cheese. I ain't gonna lie, that shit is cheese. Yeah, I'm gonna go, I'm gonna get Frisbee, it's just not for me, man. You know, I have no idea who this is. I can't wait to hear who this is.

Speaker 1:So tanaka, let me know what kendrick lamar song this is? Oh, you for real don't know what this is. No, I don't know. This is I. I mean, I probably should have read it a little bit. Wait, hold on, hold on, let me see, hold on, because I feel like, because you're troll, you're trolling right now. Let's see, I was up all night counting Benjamins his eavesdropping, say they saw me in a Benz. See, that's what fucked me up at first. I'm like what bitch you guilty. And to prove it, oh, I ain't stupid, I ain't crazy. You must be out your mind. No, I got my back. I must have, never, I must have been like you on this song Tanaka, just not paying attention to the lyrics, because this shit is not ringing a bell at all. Yeah, I don't know. Okay, what was this?
Speaker 2:I was up all night counting them Benjamins Haters, ease drop. And say they Bitch, I'm guilty, also proven innocent. Counting them Benjamins Haters, ease Driving. Sad Bitch you guilty, also proven innocent. She wanna fuck me so she can get these benefits. Oh, I ain't stupid, I ain't crazy. Must be out your mind. Fuck you mean? No, I can't. I'm assuming Rich Homie Kwan, I guess.
Speaker 1:Since you're singing Differences. Oh yeah, bro, I don't, I don't, I haven't heard. I'm assuming Rich.
Speaker 2:Homie Quan, I guess, since you're singing Differences.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah bro. I haven't heard that song in a long time.
Speaker 2:I can probably tell you the last time I played that song. Let's see When's the last time I played that song. But nah, this was because I used to always crack up when he said that Must be out your mind, Fuck you mean.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I don't think. Yeah, I'll probably tell you the last time I played that song.
Speaker 2:But yeah, that's the part that used to always have me cracking up laughing.
Speaker 1:Last time I played this song was June 11th of last year. I wonder what that was. It was probably Trap Fever or something.
Speaker 2:Yeah, probably T-fever.
Speaker 1:Well, yeah, that was Guess the Bars. That was interesting, interesting, Guess the Bars.
Speaker 2:I ain't gonna lie, rich Homie did have some like I remember that time when I think it's better watch what you say. What do you say? Um, he said something like accurate. I mean accurate, oops, my mistake there you go.
Speaker 1:There you go. I know that's your cup of tea. You love that shit. You love that shit. I know you love it. That's your cup of tea. You love that shit. You love that shit. I know you love it. That's your type of shit.
Speaker 2:Gotta love Rich Homie. Gotta love Rich Homie.
Speaker 1:Gotta love it. Well, all right, man, we're going to move on from the hall of fame because it was so long ago, so I'ma just wrap this up real quick. So I had Ricky Ricky getting murdered in Boys in the Hood and Tanaka had DJ Drip's reggae slash west coast mix at the New Music Monday. By the way, I forgot, we were supposed to update on that too, but we'll do that later, or?
Speaker 2:maybe not.
Speaker 1:We didn't even update that yeah, we never update that the first time. Last time we talked about it was the first, uh, first round, but anyway. So the winner of that was dj drips mix at the new music monday. So, um, well, I mean since, since, since it's the winter, let's go ahead and update on the new music Monday. How did that go?
Speaker 2:Step.
Speaker 1:Just take a step. I mean day by day what happened after that first night.
Speaker 2:Um Semifinals two plays DJ Jert won against. Um damn, what was her name now um?
Speaker 1:I mean, does it really matter?
Speaker 2:the girl from DC cool, uh, oh, pk killer. Or was it party killer? Yeah, pk killer, something like that, I don't know. And then it was oh, pk Killer. Or was it Party Killer, yeah, pk Killer, something like that, I don't know. And then it was AC against Wavy and in a perfect world, I wanted the Delinquents to face off in the finals.
Speaker 2:As we all did Drip against AC in the finals, with drip against ac, but unfortunately dj drip didn't win against pk killer. He definitely could have. They had to do an extra round to determine the winner because, um, they couldn't. They had such a hard time deciding and the only reason I feel like she won was because she did different genres of music, like that's literally the only reason why and they didn't even look like they wanted to get to her, but they felt like they had some. As far as ac and wavy ac, completely body bag wavy, you know, uh, no disrespect to wavy man, but I ain't gonna lie top to bottom man man, ac was like marking him, bro, and it was that that was ac in in like prime form, bro, because he was going crazy from the jump. Because he was going crazy from the jump, and then the second round was just him completely dissing Wavy with every record and it was pretty impressive.
Speaker 2:We get to the final and AC goes against PK Killah, pk Killoo and um, yeah, basically AC had just got out the hospital because he had low blood sugar and um, so he wasn't really feeling a hundred percent, but you know that's no mistake or anything, or, uh, excuse me excuse me. So in the final round they was over there battling and AC did his thing, but he didn't go all the way. He kind of held back. I knew he had another game plan, but he decided not to go through with it. Meanwhile she was over there coming for his neck in terms of, like, just dissing him, like every round, and so it was once again a tough decision because it almost got to the point that, like they gave it to her, but they were like you won by just a hair. Basically they gave it to her, but they were like you won by just a hair. Basically Because, yeah, like they wanted her to battle and stuff like that, but it got to a point where it wasn't even enjoyable, like to listen to the music, you know, and they were like like it's cool to battle and that's great, but you can't forget the main thing we're here for, and as a DJ, you're supposed to rock the crowd and have everybody vibing out and stuff, you know.
Speaker 2:So she kind of took it a little overboard in terms of battling. Um, I would say she did her homework, you know, and all that because she actually used that video that ac had of what like his, his, um, his tips for being a DJ. She used that and will play excerpts of that and then just basically play a song or whatever. So like it was kind of clever, but it was like I ain't lie, I didn't even know that that was AC talking when she played the joint. I thought it was just some random dude talking. But you know, at the end of the day, man, I'm proud of AC and Drip for how they competed. I was disappointed that the Delinquents didn't get the W, but at the end they. You know, it's a lesson learned.
Speaker 1:And now they're coalition DJs, right.
Speaker 2:I guess. So I don't know, I don't know. Jer said F that I'm a delinquent, so but that's, but that's. Yeah, that's what happened with all that you know.
Speaker 1:Cool.
Speaker 2:Oh, yeah, and Popo was there. Dj Popo and DJ JC.
Speaker 1:I couldn't be there with Popo bro. I ain't gonna lie, if I watch Popo DJ again, bro, I'm like that shit is low-key, discouraging the way he be fucking DJing. Bro. I ain't gonna lie, that nigga is cold. Yeah, that nigga's hard.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:So yeah, Tanaka, who's starting it off, since you won this round?
Speaker 2:I'ma start it off and I'ma nominate K-Way Sweets and Treats.
Speaker 1:It's been so bad that he went all the way From Stone Mountain To Cascade.
Speaker 2:Look, man, I had to get that fixed, bro. You know K-Way man, she Matter of fact. I'ma let you tell it, man. What's the backstory on k-way man?
Speaker 1:this is the, this is that girl the sweets so I didn't know who this girl was the backstory on this girl is.
Speaker 1:So shout out to everybody that came to nice and slow three. I mean we already gave the shout out, but whatever, let's talk about it again. So during Nice and Slow 3, there was a scavenger hunt going on, and so with the scavenger hunt they found a little heart around the skating rink. And once they found the heart around the skating rink, they came to the DJ booth, got a prize, and the prize was determined on the number that was inside the heart. So, um, once they did that, um, and they came there, some people had prizes that like didn't match. Like there was this stud girl that won some condoms. She was like, what am I doing with that? I was like, oh no, that's that's. I don't know. I don't know you're gonna do that anyway, beside the point.
Speaker 1:So it was another situation like that and this guy had won the heart and the prize was a little teddy bear made of flowers with some earrings. And I was like I ain't gonna lie, bruh, this prize is, um, it's the prize you got, like a girlfriend or a friend, that's a girl or, or you know a partner, or you know somebody that you admire, that you probably trying to holla at, or something. And he was like, well, there is this one girl, there's this one girl. She got on, um, she got a red top and a black bottom and she got a bow, and she got a bow on her head. And I'm like, okay, wait, I don't, I don't, I don't know you're talking about. So you point them out, you point her out, and I was like, oh, okay, that girl. And so on the mic, I'm calling her out like you, if you want to see it, it's literally on youtube. Go check out the nicest low uh, youtube, uh video. And I'm like, hey, so you've been called out.
Speaker 1:So if you got a red top on black shorts and you got a bow on your head, and it's funny as she's like realizing like what she's like, she's like, and then she like, puts it. And so she comes to the dj booth and I tell her hey, yeah, so somebody, um, somebody, uh, won this prize and they want to give it to you. And so they're like. She's like, oh, my god. So, um, she won the prize and I think I don't, honestly and truthfully don't know how I got her instagram, honestly, because I don't remember asking for it, but she took the picture with the uh, teddy bear and the earrings. And, um, I got her instagram. And then we find out she makes sweets and so, I guess, six months later, tanaka I guess end up trying, you know, trying one.
Speaker 2:And that's when I would let DJ Tanaka take the floor so, yeah, I think we had peeps her during the week like she was selling, and that man, drip, was like, hey, tanaka, you gonna get some some of that cheesecake from that girl. I was like, hey, tonight you gonna get some some of that cheesecake from that girl. I was like what are you talking about? And he's like that car over there, you see they all huddled around. I'm like, nah, I'm cool. So then I went to another cave sundae and I was like you know what, let me try this out, bro, let me see what it with him for. And she was like you know. So this means like you know, let me know how you like it, or whatever, right, but I took that first bite and I swear to you, bro, I nearly fell in love, like that. That joint was like bro, that joint was so good, turn up our first bite, bruh. I was like I was like damn like that joint, like so that clearly that plate didn't make it out of the parking lot. Bruh, you know what I'm saying. It was over with.
Speaker 2:And then, and then you know, as as, how most things work. You know, I started spreading the word, do you feel me? Because I was like, bro, this joint is hitting and um, so, no, bro, I had it again. This time I got the banana pudding. I had the strawberry cheesecake the first time and then I got the banana pudding the second time. Banana pudding the second time, bro, that banana pudding going crazy, you know. And um, and then even the cookies be hitting too. So it's just, I don't know, bro, that that joint is like I. It's crazy because I really shouldn't be eating that stuff, but, bro, it tastes so good that it's like and this is there's no disrespect to BJ, because I know BJ be selling cheesecakes with you know his lemonade and stuff.
Speaker 2:But because, all right, I always tell BJ like I don't really cop the lemonade, like that, because it's hella sugar in there, right. So obviously you're gonna look at me like well, Tanaka, you're eating cheesecake that is hella sugar, right, but in my eyes I'm like I would rather like eat sugar as a snack and then just drink, because I feel like there's hella drinks that you can have like without sugar and stuff like that. So, and I like the lemonades, bro, they be having hella sugar in there, like I could taste it, you know, and it's like don't get me wrong, it tastes great. So for anybody to f with lemonade, like definitely cop from bj, but like I just I can't be having all that sugar, like like with my drink and stuff. So but yeah, anyway, cheesecakes, bruh, that joint, go crazy. If you see K-Way she, you know what I'm saying. Short girl, thick with the glasses. Bruh, bless yourself with the K-Way, that joint, like I swear, like I like, bro, this got to be some secret, like family recipe or something.
Speaker 1:I don't know. Well, tanaka, I don't look. You know I'm not really into like the theories and conspiracies and all that shit, but they do say with when it comes. I don't know. I feel like, in comparison from men making it and women making it, I feel like you know, okay, you know, put a little love in a little love yeah, I feel like it's like you know, it's like a little bit of tlc in some of those joints I ain't gonna lie.
Speaker 2:She, she like so, then right. So then we had the realtor. I told reena about it. It's like, all right now. Now, you know I'm a real. She's like, I'm a real big back out here. You know what I'm saying. Like I, I really look where I'm gonna tell you what it's him for, right, so I let her get a scoop you know what I'm saying from the joint. And then she kind of like, she kind of like walked off and I was like, oh dang, did she not like it? Like I almost thought she was gonna spit it out. Type joint. She's like bro, that is hitting on my. She did her big one, bro, that is so good. I was like, oh see, okay, so yeah. So so reena approved. She was like bro on my mama, that is good as hell. Like, like I would tell you if that was whack, bro, because I didn't have a lot of different cheesecake. But bro, that's. And so she's like I, I gotta try the banana, she gotta make the banana pudding. Next, I gotta try they. They had sold out, so anyway.
Speaker 1:So that's yeah, maybe she put a little tender. You know little 10 11 care in her joint. You know, you know bg gangster, bg real gangster. So I don't bg bj my bad well, shout out to bg. Yeah, gangster too but yeah.
Speaker 2:So I don't know, bro, that joint, just like, if I describe it, if I describe it, it's like, because we all know sweets can be sweets, you know what I mean but this joint just has like a refreshing, like a refresh, refreshing feel about it when you eat it and it's like, I don't know, it's just that combo. Go crazy, bro, because I was just like I'm telling you, bro, that first bite. Crazy bro, because I was just like I'm telling you, bro, that first bite. I was just mind blown because I was like my expectations was low, like I didn't really you know what I mean, I didn't know what to expect.
Speaker 1:You just was supporting? I just supported Exactly.
Speaker 2:I just supporting the youth out here All right. Yeah, not even that you know what I'm saying. I was curious. You know what I'm saying. Like you know, I always give them a chance. I was like, look, let me support the youth you dig.
Speaker 1:And then I was just like oh shit, this joint is actually like something that like professionals. I joint like why are you selling plates? You should be in a. You should have a whole story like what the fuck?
Speaker 2:like I was like yeah bro, I was really mad, you should be in a guy band, you should have a whole story. You should have a story Like what the fuck On God, on God? Like I was like, yeah bro, I was really mad, you know what Tanaka, fuck it, bro, I do.
Speaker 1:We do got to. Well, we, I got to make some trips around the city after we done doing all these shenanigans that we doing. So I, I don't know, maybe we need to go find her. I'll go buy something from her. Is she outside tonight? I don't know, we'll see, we'll figure it out. Anyway, we'll talk about that later. But, um, so you're nominating K's sweet treats, just the whole thing.
Speaker 2:Just the whole thing, okay, cool, her whole operation.
Speaker 1:The whole operation. Alright bet. So I'ma go completely left with it and I'm going to actually go with your boy. I'm actually go with your boy and his most viral interview. With that being said, my nomination for the TNT podcast is Speedy Ray J the Unbreakable. The Unbreakable interview. So class was actually interested in about this. About this is that I just really found this on a humbug because, like, obviously I didn't know who Speedy was and before that time, I didn't know who Tanaka was. So, like I'm just watching it and I'm like, bro, this man Ray J is literally lying through his teeth. Because I'm like sitting here watching. I'm like, okay, so like how? Like how are Glee's glasses unbreakable? And so he's just sitting there pleading his case, like, yeah, bro, just break them, see if you can break them. And then he's like, bro, I don't want to break your stuff, break them, see if you can break them.
Speaker 2:He just Reggie, don't try me now.
Speaker 1:Okay, I will break them.
Speaker 1:He's like break them, break them, break them, I don't care like why. You just straight up lied to us like, like, like that shit makes no sense, like I don't know. You know what's funny. That's why that's, when I discovered that ray j is a very interesting human being, like I just I just never thought of ray j, of anything, so like it's just when that happened.
Speaker 1:Then after that, fast forward to the verses, find out I mean, see that thing with the, that that verse is bro, that shit is amazing. And then like, and then after that, uh, having the um episode with julian shout out julian then discovering the um, I guess the, the conversation with him, and fabulous, like ray j is a very interesting human being. And then it's just funny because not saying that speedy doesn't take things seriously, because obviously he takes things a lot serious. That's why he's made it to the platform that he has. But it's just funny that he just kind of plays into it. He's just kind of just like break them Bro, I can break them bro, I can break these glasses. Okay, cool, break them.
Speaker 2:It's just so funny because that was the blossoming of a friendship. Him and Ray J is tight now. Oh, they're like friends, yeah, like he could call them up and like awesome, like you know that's interesting.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that's an interesting fact that I didn't know. That's that's. That's cool, that's what's up so you know any other facts behind that, behind that uh situation, or is that? Is that?
Speaker 2:bad, I feel like. I think I think Ray J had let him use like a sprinter or something, you know something like that.
Speaker 1:I feel like you told me about that yeah yeah, so you know. That's crazy. That's what's up, though.
Speaker 2:That's what's up, it's just, but I feel you. So from our public perception it's like we look at Ray J like shirt off in the rain. If I could have one.
Speaker 1:But that's what I'm saying. So I'm not even talking about like his music career. I'm just saying that he just portrays so much different shit.
Speaker 2:That's what I'm saying. We see that side of him and then we see him talking gangster to fabulous, like I swear to god, yo, I pull up with my goons. We see this gangster side of Ray J and then we see this like serious businessman who's just lying through his teeth about his product. So it's just the many sides of Ray J, but yeah so so yeah man the hall of fame.
Speaker 1:It's just the many sides of Ray J, man, the many sides of Ray J. But yeah so, yeah, man, the Hall of Fame. So we're going to go with K right, k Sweet Treats.
Speaker 2:Yeah, K-Way Sweets and Treats.
Speaker 1:K-Way Sweets and Treats versus the Speedy Ray J Unbreakable interview. We're going to put it on Instagram and we're going to let y'all vote and, yeah, we'll go from there. All right, so up next.
Speaker 2:So we got a song of the day.
Speaker 1:so, yeah, yep, okay so, tanaka, I'm not gonna lie. This one I ain't gonna lie. I had to do some research on this one because this it's been a long time coming for this one. So, um, this song is a track that blends humor and bragging, focusing on the themes of success, wealth and the lifestyle that comes with it. The song's repetitive hook emphasized the idea of flaunting and expensive watches and jewelry as a symbol of status. The lyrics also touch on various aspects of the artist's life, including their rise to the fame, relationships and the hustles involved with their career. There are phrases that suggest that, while they may not have to engage in illegal activity to make money, they understand the grind and efforts to require to achieve this success. It's a catchy and playful track that showcased the artist's personality and their ability to create a memorable impact of music. Tanaka. With all that being said, do you want to take a guess at what the? You want to take a guess at what the song of the day is?
Speaker 2:No, I ain't gonna lie, I have no idea.
Speaker 1:That was a long description Dude. With that being said, my song of the day is Father, featuring I Love. Makonnen featuring Key. Look At Wrist.
Speaker 2:Mcconin, featuring key look at wrist, tanaka. Could you imagine that that that is the description of look at wrist?
Speaker 1:yeah that's uh, I don't know who wrote that one sweet baby, jesus. Bro. Like that shit is like. The fact that they had all that with wrist is hilarious, bro, very much so. So the song came out sometime in 2014. Nobody really has an actual date of when. Look at wrist came out. Somewhere in 2014, father released look at wrist. According to youtube, it was released in july, so we're just gonna go off of youtube july 2014. It the track is Is on one of his projects. It's track number 5 On Father's Project Young Hot, ebony Tanaka. Have you ever heard Young Hot Ebony?
Speaker 2:I think that's the only Father's track I've ever heard. So no, I have not heard Young, hot Ebony.
Speaker 1:It is. It's released off his His record record label, awful records. Tanaka, are you familiar with awful records? I am familiar with awful records do you have any other, any other tidbits on awful records?
Speaker 2:I want to say ugly guy. I think ugly guy was on awful records. I'm not sure, though.
Speaker 1:I can't, I can't well, wipe the dust off that one boy, ugly guy. I drip on your beard like what, but anyway, we're gonna talk about ugly guy. Um was actually interesting. I actually got this information off of rap genius, so shout out to rap genius. Um, what helped generate some buzz from the song was apparently drake. Uh, drake uh credited, I mean uh, or shouted out the song on his instagram, um, on his instagram in 2014. So you know, if drake is backing you, then you know.
Speaker 1:You know you got some mcconin was signed right to drake at the time I think he was signed to awful records actually, oh okay, and then he may I don't know, he may have had a partnership, I don't, you know I it gets real fishy when it gets to the we got a favorite.
Speaker 2:When did tuesday come out?
Speaker 1:no idea. But if you can, whenever, whenever you're done, doing what you're doing, look that up for me. Um, when I heard the song, I heard the song at a random party and what? What caught my ear? What caught my ear of the song? How laid back and lazy the track sounds like. Bro, that song is hella lazy from the beat to the producer to the rapping it it's just like so laid back and lazy.
Speaker 1:But I fuss with it because this is like 2014, 2015 we're talking about like this joint will start up any cypher of, like you know, the nay, nay or whip or weed or whatever the case. Like it'll start up the circle wrist, wrist, wrist, wrist, wrist, wrist of any, like anything. So that's what made me, that's what caught the attention of that song to me. But at the time, I was part-time DJing and I was at part-time at the Boys and Girls Club, but I was at every party, like I said, so, like this song didn't get played at every party, but like, when it did get played, it was like oh shit, like that shit is hard. So here's the thing. Here's another thing about this song, right?
Speaker 1:So I don't know if you can necessarily like uh, use this as a as an official video. But I guess you kind of can, because the song is playing and you know it's the official audio and it's just. But the video is literally them in the studio and like you could tell father is into it because it's his song, but like macon is like they're all sitting down and like the camera is literally just panning to them as their song is, as their part is coming on, and like it's just funny because father is into it, he's, and then I want to keep it. Oh, look at god and so. But mccone, he just has this chain on his face. He's just fucking. I don't know what the fuck he's doing.
Speaker 1:It's so weird. It's just like they just and key he can't even remember his part. Like he's rapping it, but like he's like he doesn't even remember the part. Like bro, this song is just like. I don't know. This is hilarious, just the video, and I don't know. I gotta show you the video because I know you would appreciate how this is yeah, I've seen the video.
Speaker 2:Oh, you've seen the video. Oh, you seen the video. I know exactly what you're talking about. That's why it's so funny.
Speaker 1:It's just like I don't know, it's just hilarious. So it's two things I think of when I think of Look at wrist. It's first. The first thing I think of when I think of wrist Is Partying in the 2014 2015 era Of Atlanta Like Blue House 40 Griffin. Partying in the 2014-2015 era of atlanta like blue house um, 40 griffin. Like just the clubs. Like I didn't really go to a lot of the clubs. I was in more of the like the house party scene and shit like that. But yeah, like look at wrist would always like not always, but like sporadically like pop in the DJ's playlist and yeah, bro, talk about just a hidden gem in Atlanta. Bro, that song is like Atlanta legendary gold. I know you always talk about street classic Tanaka. I feel like that song is a street classic, absolutely. So.
Speaker 1:The second thing I think of is when I first met DJ Tanaka. So for the people that don't know me and AC, we met Tanaka. Tanaka did a New Year's Eve party from 2019 to 2020. And I forgot how we got on the conversation. Maybe tanaka will be able to tell. But we started talking about the song and I was like bro, I swear to god, if you play that song I would like, bro, we got to be friends forever, like, and so he played it. And, bro, I just remember, I just remember somebody being in the dj booth and I had hopped on top of the fucking. I had hopped on top of the dj booth, started dancing and shit, and she's just kind of looking like what the fuck is happening right now. So those are the two things I always think about, um, about, uh, look at when risk when look at risk comes on, that's always what I think about.
Speaker 1:But, um, and of course, you know, know, look at Riz, the father made the beat. I mean, he couldn't yeah, you know, it wasn't in the budget for him to get a real big producer. So, you know, father had to go on the beat but shout out to father man. But, last thing, critics appreciated the song's playful and irreverent nature, which is set apart from most of the mainstream hip-hop tracks at the time. The collaboration between Father Olive, makoni and Key was also highlighted as a key factor in the song's success. If you want a little sneak peek of like what it was looking like in the mid, the mid 2010s, you definitely need to check out. I love, I love Makonnen, key and Fathers. Look at wrist Because, yeah, that, yeah, yeah, that's that's, that's, that's a song in just for its time. It's just a beautiful song. Tanaka, I like you about to say something.
Speaker 2:Yeah, man, this is definitely one of the essentials. That you know what I'm saying. Me and Turner became cool and I think that we be forget like. Like look, I don't get me wrong, I know I'll be talking lyrics, this lyrics that you feel me. I appreciate lyrics, but trust me, I can also appreciate just fun music and, bro, we sometimes forget that hip-hop is meant to be like. You're supposed to have fun, bro, you know what I'm saying and I think I think that's why the record is so great, because they're they're just having fun. But you know what I mean? It's a fun record. So, like, yeah, man, that's a. That's atlanta classic, street classic. You can't tell me nothing different. Not at all. It may end up at a 2010s party by turn, you never know.
Speaker 2:Oh absolutely you never know, man 2010s Just be on the lookout, man.
Speaker 1:Be on the lookout. It is happening. Look at Riz, we'll be getting played. I don't this time. This time is going to get played. I don't care if you know it, I don't, I'm playing it for me, like at that point. But yeah, so yeah, man, dj, turn Up's song of the day, father. Shout out to Father. Look at rest.
Speaker 2:Shout out to Father man For my album of the day. I'm going to go with Rich Homie Kwan's last project. It was called Family and Moolah.
Speaker 1:Damn. I thought we was doing Royal Richie.
Speaker 2:It was called Family and Moolah. It was released in 2022. It was eight songs and then a reloaded, basically deluxe version was released in 2022. Um, it was eight songs and then a reloaded, basically deluxe version was released and it had 15 songs on it and, um, it just showed the new sound that rich homie was having. It was a lot more polished new sound that rich homie was having. It was a lot more polished, kind of less like that struggle, but more so, um, polished and, I would say, rejuvenated.
Speaker 2:Rich homie kwan.
Speaker 2:Um, and it really kind of breaks my heart because one of the singles he released was called crazy and on that song, bro, he literally has a lyric that said I know, one of my partners just died from one of the fake pills, bro, and so it's like it was crazy to hear that.
Speaker 2:But overall, on the project, I can appreciate it because in a lot of the interviews that rich homie has been having recently, he's been speaking about how important it is like for his message in the music now, now that he has his kids growing up, and all that. He was like you know, if they look me up, you know they're gonna see, you know they're gonna hear stuff, you know. So he started becoming more aware of like what he puts in his music as far as messaging, and so I can appreciate that, um, because I feel like rich homie has always been inspirational, but he does have his moments where he'd be talking about like smashing girls and this and that and all that. But I will say, in a lot of the records, um, he does have like more inspirational stuff than just talking about stacking your money and, like you know, just motivational stuff, like even tips of like um, posting the video after you leave the location and that's kind of a that's something that people don't really think about, you know.
Speaker 1:What do you mean by that?
Speaker 2:So, like, if you go to the club and you say videos at the club, you don't post the videos right when you're at the club. You post them like after you let the club, so that people don't really know, like, where you're at. Because a lot of people get caught up when they post right away that they had the club. Then folks they got an issue with you, pull up to the club and then you know, take care of you, tight joint, so, um, and then he has a collaboration with no cap from the new generation and it turned out really good, you know. So it just goes to show that he still had a place, that he could fit in with the new generation. As far as collabing and not sound dated at all, um, I will say that it was mainly for rich homie fans. You know, I don't know how much it will break through as far as like nationally, but, um, I think it was just exciting to hear rich homie and in a more mature state. Uh, it's unfortunate we didn't get to see that fully developed, you know. But, um, you know, uh, I can appreciate the project for sure, and I really just felt like it was a teaser of, of like things to come really. But, uh, salute to rich Homie Kwan man.
Speaker 2:It's interesting because when I look at his career, like I think back to Because, ok, when we always hear an artist, right, right, I feel like the first few years it's always exciting because, first of all, there's something new that we haven't heard.
Speaker 2:You know, when the artist comes onto the scene, then they develop their sound, you know, they learn things, they get better and then they graduate to a more mature state in which, um, only the true fans will probably really follow them, as opposed to, like the, the masses that love them when they first came on the scene. But, um, you know, I can appreciate that he was taking care of his family for real and stuff like that, you know, and getting that right. So, yeah, man, you know, the mature sound I don't think is as exciting, you know. What I mean, as opposed to when you're fresh on the scene and really got that hunger for real. And I think that's what happens with a lot of artists is that the fans kind of become bored because it's like, I don't't know, maybe we just like we don't care for growth not we, but like or I don't know, they don't appreciate.
Speaker 1:They don't appreciate growth the same thing, happened with 21 Savage folks didn't like when he dropped, I was greater than I am, or I am greater than what I was. Folks was like, bro, we ain't trying to hear that shit bro we ain't trying to murder motherfuckers.
Speaker 2:Right, right. That's the type of time they on in.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I mean, if that's the case of Rich Homie Quan, I could definitely see.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:I could definitely see that.
Speaker 2:So you know, but yeah, man, ripip to Rich Homie Definitely will be missed man, but forever grateful man for all the memories. It's crazy because a lot of college folk you know they literally will remember me because I used to always be bumping Rich Homie Quan type of way. I had it on repeat, so much to the point that folks was like sick of it.
Speaker 1:Let me ask you this Did any of your college friends hit you up like, oh my god, Tanaka, did you hear?
Speaker 1:Nah, they didn't, nah, they didn't I know I did that with anybody that I know is a big fan of anybody. When Kobe died, first person I called was Ace Move. Of course he didn't pick up cause he probably already heard it. But yeah, but um, yeah, man. So I'm assuming I feel like I already know your answer to this question. So where does where does this, uh, where does this project sit in the discography of rich homie kwan?
Speaker 2:are we? We including the Rich Gang album, if you want to. So his first, second and the Rich Gang album, I think, are like the top three. I don't know exactly what the order is, but those are the top three, but those are the top three. After that I would say um. His debut album riches in spirit.
Speaker 1:So basically, you, you don't, you don't mix and mingle the, the, the um, the pre, the, the, the the rich homie Kwan when he was popping, and then the one when, the ones when he wasn't popping. It's just, they're like two different.
Speaker 2:Oh no, I'm saying that that's the top three and then four. I don't know the order of the first three. Yeah, that's what.
Speaker 1:I'm saying. So that's what I'm saying. The mainstream ones are on top, and then the ones that weren't so mainstream are on top.
Speaker 2:Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, pretty much yeah, okay, yeah, Well, I guess, except Just because I know.
Speaker 1:I guess, except the, I guess the Royal Richie would be just, I would assume, at the bottom.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I, just Because I ain't gonna lie. I really like his debut album, but it's hard to appreciate it as much when it doesn't resonate with the people like that, whereas with the earlier projects, man, seeing the impact that it has on folks when those records get played and just understanding how people know them, it's like a whole different level. You know. But I'll put the debut album. It's really a toss up between this project and his other project, coma. I'll probably put this project and then Coma and then the last two will be Royal Rich and then album for the album.
Speaker 1:Okay, cool. Well, that was the album of the day, so DJ talk album of the day. Um so dj talk.
Speaker 2:So for dj talk um turn up, it's a real simple, you know, question um. Do you think we should? Are you in trouble? Oh, I love it, let's do it. I don't even know what to put in my pants. Do you think we should create DJ tags that say DJ turn up does not take requests. Please do not approach DJ turn up. Just dancing is highly suggested.
Speaker 1:I love that you actually looked at that, but DJ Tanaka swears he doesn't watch stories but um no, it was sent in the group chat oh, it was you know what's crazy bro. I swear to you, tanaka, there has been, like I bullshit you not like 20 plus people that have sent me that same video and I was like you know what bro, fuck it, I'm gonna watch it oh for real dude there's been so many people that have sent me that fucking video and I'm like, bro, I put it on my story.
Speaker 1:I'm like, alright, bro, are y'all trying to tell me something? Like do I need to stop taking requests? And so I put the poll on my on my story and I was like all right now. So just know, if it says yes, I'm going to get this drop made and I don't care who you are, I'm not taking requests. So if you come up to the DJ booth, you come and chill in the DJ booth. You feel like you're going to be like oh yeah, bro, you should play Nope, so you better vote wisely. And I'm starting to get replies. I'm starting to get replies from people that are saying, yes, no, yes, it's real split though. Yes, no, yes, no. I haven't seen the results yet, but we gonna see oh, you literally just posted it this was no, not literally.
Speaker 1:I mean, it wasn't now, it was, it was today oh, that's still recent.
Speaker 2:No, no, I didn't it was four hours ago. Yeah, I thought she was talking about like a few days ago.
Speaker 1:No, this is four hours ago as time recording. Um, this is four hours ago, yeah, and so we're gonna see.
Speaker 2:We're gonna see if, uh, I take requests or not for the time being so this was one of those that I saw the video but I didn't hear the audio. And then I was with Drip the other night. I was dying laughing when I said when you heard it. Bruh, the audio was crazy.
Speaker 1:Bruh, some folks just don't know how to take a hint. Bro, just leave that man alone.
Speaker 2:Bro, he, that man literally played the drop, played it again and then he just started repeating the DJ does not take requests. Dj does not take. Dj does not take requests. Dj does not take requests. Dj does not take requests.
Speaker 1:Please do not approach I ain't gonna lie, I might have to get something like that made, but it would be like please do not approach unless with cash veils. Z-mo's. It would be something like that. Unless you got that motherfucking bread, it's going to be ignorant too. Hey, that motherfucking DJ not taking no motherfucking request. Unless you got that motherfucking cash, cheese, cheddar cheese, bank roll, you finna spread that bread on a motherfucking DJ. Don't come for the motherfucking.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's going to be something like that.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, I on a motherfucking DJ Don't come for the motherfucking oh yeah, I got to get that, bro, I'm not going to lie. There's a guy that's on Instagram that be doing the promo joint and he be like oh yeah, shout out, my motherfucking brother, my motherfucking brother, he got Bill Clinton on it. He got Bill Clinton on it. He got Barack Obama on it. He was recording it on the moon and the stars. Bruh, if I were to get somebody to do the drop, I would get him to do the drop, bro, just let me know what your price is, bruh, let me know what your price is, and I need that drop made, unless you come with that motherfucking cheat chat. I need something like that.
Speaker 1:I feel that if you're gonna do it, you gotta do it, right, right, it's gonna be, it's gonna be super ignorant. I can't, I can't wait to play that shit. But yeah, nah. So, um, uh, I mean yeah, I mean there's times, there's time to do it, and there's times now. I mean, of course, I wouldn't do that for, like a corporate event, probably not, probably not, probably not the best bet to be doing that. But, um, oh, yeah, bro, if I'm, if I'm, bailout monday, I don't give a fuck bro, I don't care, I don't care, bro, them folks be killing me, bro.
Speaker 1:But honestly and truthfully, bailout monday has gotten to a point where folks don't even really reproach. So whatever, right, there's times for I'll say it's times for it. There are times for it. I'm not gonna lie. Metro diner will probably be one of those. But honestly and truthfully, I really don't get a lot of requests at metro diner. Honestly, most requests I get is the singing. So I don't know shout out to metro diner. Most requests I get is the singing. So I don't know, shout out to Metro Diner, but how?
Speaker 2:you feel about it? Tanaka, that joint just bringing me flashbacks to all them customers that be giving me trouble out here, that turn up, you be over there talking about boy Tanaka. I wish I was there.

Speaker 2:Nah, I probably wouldn't get that. It's hella funny but I probably wouldn't. Um, I do be trying to accommodate as best I can for the people. Um, unfortunately that puts me in very in back and forth predicaments with, uh, these folks that just don't be getting it. But you know, it's comes with the territory that I choose to play, so you know. But that's DJ Tuck, any DJs? Let us know if you would get that drop. You know DJ so and so does not take requests. Please do not approach. Dancing is highly suggested.
Speaker 1:You know, see, but that's a little different though. Now, that dancing part, in the end it would have to be for a club, or, I guess, metro.
Speaker 2:Diner.
Speaker 1:But you would have to get something Especially made. But yeah, I ain't gonna lie, I might have to get something especially made like. But yeah, I ain't gonna lie, I might have to find that person. I think the first I seen, uh, dj 23, get one, but I don't remember his name. He's a. I remember he's a fat guy.
