It's old now because you know, you know tiktok, social media trends kind of go really quickly, right, but um, it's something, something I've seen on TikTok and it just makes me laugh every time I see it, but the one kiss is all it takes.
Speaker 1:The TikTok dance.
Speaker 2:It was crazy At first. I seen it and I was just like what is happening? But it's just so funny. So I did further research on this and it was crazy was there, was this guy that I kept seeing, that kept blowing up. His name is speed. I show speed, so can you tell me a little bit about this speed, speed is a streamer.
Speaker 1:That's it.
Speaker 2:Yeah, youtuber and streamer so he's like the kai guy, yeah, he him and kai have done the same thing oh wait, are they like?
Speaker 1:no, they're not. They're not like in a. I don't think they're in a group, okay, unless I remember kai was in a group because my little brother shout out jayden he tells me about, like kai he there.
Speaker 2:He used to be in like a click of. He used to be like a click and pause. Okay, yeah, he part of impulse, um, and speed has nothing to do with that, but he's just like a streamer. Basically, to my knowledge.
Speaker 1:yeah, I don't think he's on that post.
Speaker 2:Okay, let me ask you this. You know this is him on the meme, the trend thing.
Speaker 1:I don't know if he's not on every one of them.
Speaker 2:No, this one kid, did you know that was him.
Speaker 1:No, I didn't know it was his yeah.
Speaker 2:Apparently that was him, Apparently he apparently that was him and apparently he was playing just dance. And he got so upset that he kicked his camera and I didn't even realize, because I just watched the video and I was like, oh, he kicked it down.
Speaker 2:Oh no, yeah, I haven't seen that. I didn't know it was his like video. That was him. I was like because I keep seeing him like getting into other things that had nothing to do with this trend. But I'm like, what is he famous for? But I feel like, for the most part, I feel like that's why he's a streamer.
Speaker 1:He just streamers are just famous for being famous. Yeah, it's like the kardashian of hobbies, yeah, basically.
Speaker 2:So, yeah, the one kiss is all it takes, so that's that's what I'm nominating for the tnt podcast all the time. One kiss is all it takes. But yeah, I'm gonna go with. I'm gonna go with the game from 2004 to 2008 because I feel like he was untouchable.
Speaker 1:Yeah, nah, that was special bro, that was special Dang. Let me think, yeah, that's a tough one, that's a tough one.
Speaker 2:Games run boy.
Speaker 1:That was something serious, bro. I remember what it was like.
Speaker 2:But you know what's funny about it is it really wasn't that I don't know. He didn't really do that much. I mean, okay, one thing I will say he held the West down before Kendrick and after Snoop. I will say that. But just looking back on it, he really didn't do a lot but bro, he made an impression on me. I was very vulnerable.
Speaker 1:Do you think that's because he got kicked out of G-Unit? Do you think that's because he left like he got kicked out of G-Unit?
Speaker 2:Do you think he really got kicked out of G-Unit or do you think he?
Speaker 1:left.
Speaker 2:I mean.
Speaker 1:I think it was just a situation where you got two egos that's too big and they can't coexist because they're just always going to bump heads, and I was a part of that.
Speaker 2:I was fuck 50, fuck.
Speaker 3:Banks fuck.
Speaker 2:Buck, fuck them all. Like G you not, I was that kid. I ain't never had none of the shirts though I really wanted to get one, but I just never knew where to get one from.
Speaker 1:But I was definitely that kid that's one was serious man, that's one. I remember I still got that.
Speaker 2:And if I could find it, bro, I would really buy that the Stop Snitching, Stop Lying.
Speaker 3:documentary he had had, bro.
Speaker 2:He really had me fooled, bro. He really had me thinking olivia was a man bro damn, that's great, that's great.
Speaker 2:I remember that yo, that's crazy how they used to have those tapes, bro, where they just they had those little yeah, they were selling at the gas station yeah, and they had like the since we were on the subject of Lil Wayne, loosely I wanted to nominate an interesting era that I've actually never had any of the clothes in, but I I was interested to see like if it was actually going to do anything, and I mean it did for a little minute. I don't. I've actually only known like one or two people that actually had his clothing brand.
Speaker 1:Do truck fit, bro. Ding, ding ding.

Speaker 1:Can you tell me why was it called truck fit?
Speaker 2:oh don't, don't give me lines.
Speaker 1:It's like trucker wear or something.
Speaker 2:I don't know. He was a skateboarder at the time. I was more confused on why he picked that name, like you were, but I was just. I don't know, maybe it's just some skate terminology.
Speaker 1:Wasn't that one of his lines like suck some dick for some truck fit?
Speaker 2:Yeah, bitch, quit talking that shit and suck a nigga dick for some truck fit. Yeah, yeah, okay, I mean yeah, that was uh what song was that? That was, oh pop that, your favorite rapper, french montana. There you go anyway. So yeah, truck fit, tanaka. Have you ever owned any truck fit? Not at all, not at. Not at all, not at all.

Speaker 1:I'm just trying to support the youth. Support the youth out here, man you know truck fit um, yeah, I think I was only really like, if I were to wear something like, it would probably be like ti, you know oh, he has. He has a, I had some aku back in the day, some who Akku.
Speaker 2:You know what's funny? I didn't have that, but I did have 8732.
Speaker 1:See, but truck fit nah why?

Speaker 1:Well, like you said, it was a skater type joint. I don't know man, I don't know bro, Just not for me, bro, yeah just no.
Speaker 2:Straight on it, man. Truck Fit definitely screams 2010s, though, for sure. And boy, just looking at this, just looking at these outfits, just screams 2010s. They got jogger. They got jogger, just like jogger shorts. Got jogger, just like a jogger shorts. This, uh, oh, that was his cover art for dedication for that little skateboard thing. But, um, yeah, man, hey, if you ever had some truck fit, let me know what truck fit you had. Was it a shirt, shirt, short hat? Whatever it was, that's my nominee for the TNT Podcast Hall of Fame. Is truck fit?
Speaker 1:I guess we'll keep it in the spirit of Kaz. I go with Sir Lucius Lefkowitz. You know, big boy, I don't know. I always consider big boys real debut, not speaker box. I always be feeling like Sir Lucius Lefkowitz.
Speaker 2:That's the Sh shutter bug, right, yes, the general general pattern Hard.
Speaker 1:I just felt like he was snapping on the battle.
Speaker 2:My nomination for the TNT podcast is LA Reid's part in Maybach Music.
Speaker 2:This so, for the people that don't know, I don't know why, well, I kind of know why, but I don't know why. But for some reason, la Reid's part in Maybach Music. Okay, let me rewind a little bit, because some of y'all don't even know what the fuck I'm talking about. So there's an artist named Rick Ross. He came out with an album called God Forgives and wait, is it God Forgives and I Don't? Yeah, God Forgives and I Don't. And he has a song on there called. Well, he has a song on there which is a series of songs called Maybach Music, but this happened to be number four and for some reason I never thought about this because I kind of just I was like, oh, this is LA Reid, cool. But apparently, for some reason, la Reid's part in Maybach Music 4 completely weirds out DJ Tanaka. So, tanaka, would you like to explain to some of the folks who LA Reid is?
Speaker 1:LA Reid was a part of a group back in the day like the 80s. What's the name of that song, man? I can't remember the name of it. He was part of our B group, though, turnabout, I actually think. You know the record, but I can't even remember the name of his group. So, but it was in like the early mid-80s that they came out. They had this hit single. He eventually became like a Moving over to management and all that and became like hit single. He eventually became a mood over management and all that and became head of a label. So LA Reid felt that he should make an appearance on Rick Ross' record. From one boss to another. It's LA Reid. From one boss to another.
Speaker 2:You know it's a big movie, I'm going to pick a movie. I'm going to pick a movie clip. My nomination for the TNT Podcast Hall of Fame is when Ricky gets killed in Boys in the Hood. What's interesting about this is that I remember actually seeing that movie. Not obviously not when it came out, because I think I was like a baby when that movie came out, but um and yeah, I ain't gonna lie, that definitely was like one of the sadder parts of that movie. I was like whoa, like that, like then he had his whole life ahead of him. It was over in a flash. It's just interesting. Hip-hop has so many references to the Boys in the Hood and the Ricky the Ricky, the Ricky joint.
Speaker 1:It's so funny because my mom saw Boys in the Hood and that's like her like, that's like her interpretation of like Black people. Yeah, they're just like gangster rap and just all of that. You know what I'm saying. And, um, she like gets really emotional bringing that up.
Speaker 2:The the Ricky, the Ricky part.
Speaker 1:She's like, she's like man, he, he's just uh, he's just such a good kid and just had so much, so much ahead of him, and for him to just get gunned down in the hood like that, you know, it's just, oh, it's just so sad. Yeah, she's not wrong. Yeah, you know, and it's like, um, but like she even feels for dough boy you know what I'm saying she's like um, but like she even feels for dough boy, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1:She's like, you know, poor dough boy. He just, he just wanted to feel love from his mom, you know, and he couldn't get that love, you know. Right so anyway, I say I would say that she really enjoys that. Well, I don't know if she enjoyed it, but she empathizes, she felt for it, she felt for it, right. I feel like that's also part of the reason why she, you know, rocks with all the music that I listen to. Oh really, you know, I kind of put her on to all this, you know.
Speaker 2:All this hood rap music and uh yeah Right, Fable's dance moves oh. God, why? Okay, so why? Why are we nominating Fable's dance moves?
Speaker 1:Bro man Fable, you know, y'all know that out of D4L Fabo, you know he's the entertainer, bro, you know the dance was going crazy.
Speaker 2:I really would have thought he would have made something out of himself.
Speaker 1:I'm trying to tell you. You know what I'm saying, because he had a lot of personality, remember. We just like how we be great in the Riders. You know what I'm saying. Like the rappers, you don't have to be necessarily the most lyrical person. You know what I'm saying Favo personality off the chain, off the charts, and then he had them hooks and stuff.
Speaker 2:Right, Not to mention the fucking long socks and the fucking.
Speaker 1:Yeah, the whole outfit. Yeah, the shades. You know what I'm saying. All that.
Speaker 2:Just out of curiosity. I know you've been tired of us, but Fabo are you familiar with Fabo?
Speaker 1:Fabo.
Speaker 2:Not in the slightest.
Speaker 1:I just wanted to be included in the conversation.
Speaker 2:Are you familiar with the song Laffy Taffy, laffy Taffy.

Speaker 3:Yeah, sparkles.
Speaker 2:That's Sparkles. Yeah, bruh, bruh, yeah. So the chorus, the guy on the chorus and the first verse, that's Favo.
Speaker 1:Okay.
Speaker 2:That's Favo.
Speaker 1:She goes big. I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 2:I don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 3:I don't know.
Speaker 2:I know you. No. I said did you attempt? I didn't say did you actually do it?
Speaker 1:That's what I said. I think the only one I really like did for real was the leg shit. You know what I'm saying? I can see you trying to leg shit. Nah, I'm not that flexible bro.
Speaker 2:He would put his leg up and wipe the bottom of his shoe, wild.
Speaker 1:Nah, I was just wanting them regular Gotcha Wild, that shit is on. Nah, I was just Wanting them regular Gotcha. I wasn't doing all that. That's all you need. That's all you need.
Speaker 2:You know what I'm saying, whatever but some of them got fancy Like. Oh, that was me, I was, yeah, you got paws, yeah, that shit.
Speaker 1:I'ma go with Snoop Dogg, dmx Versus, but only well, just my nomination is the portion at the end in which they were just freestyling. In which they were just freestyling, thundercat was DJing and he was cutting up crazy just with like the breakbeat and all that. And then just, you know, just classic freestyling, like how you know you and your friends would do it, just like saying whatever, but just still rhyming and flowing and all that. And it was just dope to see like snoop and dmx, you know, just having fun and just going back and forth. You know, and um, and I don't know, it was just good to see dmx in like a good light, you know, because I know he didn't have a lot of issues and you know different situations. But to see him like just genuinely enjoying himself and having fun, you know, I would speak on like everybody kid at heart, you know, so the little kid was coming out of him, you know, just like having fun.
Speaker 2:I will say this In the last when I say couple, I don't know, after he had got wait, wait, did he get out of jail or get out of prison or something? Yeah, the last few years. I feel like them. Last few years were good to him yeah, definitely he was definitely more happy doing interviews and you know just the verses, just everywhere and hell, even when he said people don't like to talk about death yeah like so, like when he went on drink champs and was like I could die today and everybody's like whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Speaker 2:He was like no, for real, if I, if I die today, I could say that I'm happy yeah, yeah so so that, yeah shout out to x along with x.
Speaker 2:But um, that's interesting. I gotta, I gotta check that out. I don't think I've ever, I've never seen that versus, but I need to, I need to check that versus out. But, um, my nominee for the tnt podcast hall of fame is the easy jerry curls. Like it's the fact that bro gangsters real gangsters used to wear that hairstyle, like niggas used to walk around with sticks, do you know?
Speaker 1:jerry curls. Do you know what the so what? What is the process to make the hair? Oh, dude, you're asking the wrong one. I have no idea, because the only thing I know about a jerry curl is like whenever somebody dap them up, they have to be like and wipe that shit off their face. I guess Is it From the jerry curl From the curl oils or something.
Speaker 1:I don't know, that From the curl oils or something I don't know. That's why I was just wondering what exactly is put into the hair or whatever. I have no idea, dude, honestly.
Speaker 2:I mean shit by the time we were born? I don't think, jerry.
Speaker 1:Curls was born. That was like an 80s thing, I feel like that was like early to mid-90s.
Speaker 2:I feel like by the end of the 90s niggas wasn't wearing jerry curls.
Speaker 1:But I could be wrong. When did you say late 80s? Oh, when it started.
Speaker 2:Yeah, oh, I would say 80s, just 80s period. Yeah, I feel like Michael had some jerry curls at some point, but I could be wrong. I don't know. I don't know, that's just such an interesting hairstyle.
Speaker 1:That's the swag man. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2:Isn't that what they were talking about on Coming to America?

Now I think about it, I feel like Ice-T was wearing it before he was. Yeah, Ice Cube, ice Cube did have it. Yeah, yeah, ice Cube did have the Jerry Curls when he was in NWA. But they left us standing on the couch and everything.
Speaker 1:That's funny. Hey, man, that's a swag right there. Man, yeah, I guess, as you call it, nominate Seafood, man Seafood okay.
Speaker 2:Why are we nominating seafood?
Speaker 1:For those that don't know, tanaka was not sure if he could eat seafood because both my parents they was allergic to it. So growing up I never had it for real and so because of that I never knew if I was allergic. And I have recently discovered this world of seafood, and it has been quite the journey, I have to say. I've been pleasantly intrigued by these different types of seafood the seafood boil, the terminology of cluster. The seafood boil, the uh terminology of cluster. Um, yeah, I had no idea what that meant, you know. They said knock how many clusters you want. I said what are you talking about? And uh, they're like oh, so now you like dead ass. Like I said, bro, I, I don't know nothing. I know nothing about that. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2:How long ago was this? If you could say.
Speaker 1:I would say this is maybe a month or two ago, gotcha you know. So I finally discovered I could eat it and you know it's been cool. You know learning about it and eating all these different you know crab legs and shrimp and trying these seafood boils and fighting these cravings because I'm like damn, that's really fire. But I've also learned seafood is not exactly the most you know affordable thing, so definitely gotta save your coins to enjoy that. But yeah, shout out to Seafood, shellfish and all that good stuff.
Speaker 3:Look forward to continuing this journey that it the entire Drake era from now until, not like this, until the lawsuit era. I don't know if he'll come back from the lawsuit, so let's just go ahead and give him his flowers now.

Speaker 3:Just for the record, Kendrick didn't kill his career. Yes, he did, he did not. I'm still bumping Drake over Kendrick.
Speaker 2:Oh, I mean absolutely. But that's the thing that people need to understand. When we say that he got beat by Kendrick, we're not saying that Kendrick is going to replace him. I don't say that at all. Drake is going to still have songs in the club. Drake is still going to have songs for the white people.
Speaker 1:Drake is still going to have.
Speaker 2:it doesn't take away from the great songs he's made you know, or this great songs he's going to make in the future, Like we're saying that, drake, while Kendrick got out of his fucking 2023 Kia Soul and he got his ass beat, he still got the money, yes, but he got his ass beat.
Speaker 3:He did not get his ass beat. It was one song he got his ass beat. He did not. You know how. I know he got his ass beat.
Speaker 2:Folks in other countries are talking about how Drake got his ass beat, that is, he never responded. It was one song. It was one song. It was one song. No, it wasn't Listen because the rest of them.
Speaker 3:Kendrick diss songs were hot garbage, euphoria. Go ahead and shit that out in the kitty, litter, oh okay, and then pour it down the toilet, oh okay.

Speaker 3:He dissected him Honestly in truth, he really could have ended with Meet the Grams, and that would have been it. That would have been fine, but he dropped Not.
Speaker 2:Like Us. And then actually not only did he shit on him, he shit on him and made money off of it and folks come up to us and be like hey, can you play this?
Speaker 1:What they say, like dancing on the casket.

Speaker 2:They're all done this. I'm going to bed. That's fine. I don't want to see In your crazy teeth, but it's fine.
Speaker 3:And we thank y'all For listening to the TNT.
Speaker 2:I'm gonna go with, I'm gonna actually go With a concert tour that happened back in, like, I want to say like, maybe like 99, 2000, I want to say I want to say it came out in like 2000 ish, oh yeah. So, according to wikipedia, this is uh, the. This was a. This was a tour that was going around that was in the 2000s from like, from like june to august, and, um, this was a tour with ice cube, dr dre, snoop, dogg, em Eminem and they were basically going off of the Chronic 2001 album, the Marshall Mathers LP, no Limit, top Dog and basically all their more recent shits.
Speaker 2:And they threw some old hits in there, but for the most part they were doing like all their more recent shit because all of them were very relevant at the time, right. So from what I remember because I actually seen this, I've actually seen this joint many times Ice Cube started it off, and then, I believe I believe Dr Dre, I believe it was Dr Dre and Snoop Dogg, and then, and then who else? And then I think I want to say it was Eminem, but I don't know Some. It was some along those lines. But long story short, for the people that don't know, this was called the Up Is Smoke Tour. So that is my nominee for Hall of Fame. Tnt Podcast Hall of Fame what's called the uppest smoke tour. So that is my nominee for uh hall of fame. Tnt podcast hall of fame. Um, if you're a fan of old school, early 90s, mid 90s, early 2000s hip-hop music, this, this, this concert's for you, with the weed smoke and the, you know I'm saying the goddamn all the classic bangers.
Speaker 2:And not to mention, it has that famous, that famous scene of Dove C hitting the crip walk. That is from that concert. Definitely, this is definitely a classic tour which had featured artists D12, mc Wren, west Side Connection, the East Siders, devin the dude, warren G Exhibit and, of course and then of course, me personally, my favorite, my favorite song off of Eminem's album that was the most recent at the time he did, marshall M mathers love that song. Let me ask you this have you ever heard the song um? Have you ever heard the?
Speaker 1:song before I'm trying to think man, uh, you said it was off the eminem marshall mathers.
Speaker 2:This is the singles with uh, the way I am real slim, shady um kill you yeah, I know that that's classic m?
Speaker 1:um, I didn't really get into eminem until like a little bit later, like I mean, I feel like eminem show was kind of more. So my introduction, um, I feel like I have heard the martial matters lp, um I don't. Eminem is like interesting for me because like he has a moment he's like a dope rapper. I just can't. I didn't fully get into him, though I think it's like a little too weird.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it was just a little, but here's the thing, though, is that I used to bump his like greatest hits joint, like all the time, you know I'm saying, and then, like my homie from Seattle, like he, he's like a huge Eminem fan, like fanatic, like to this day will be like yo, bro, did you hear that new Eminem album? And I just, I don't know, bro, it's, it's hard. I'm not gonna lie, it's hard for me to listen to Eminem nowadays, and why is that? I don't know what it is. It's, um, like I I don't feel like he's like I don't know what it is. It's like there's like a lack of lack of like.
Speaker 1:I feel like he's going I just feel like he'd be going through the motions. You know what I'm saying. It's like just rhyming a whole bunch of words, like I don't know. Um, it's interesting because I was. I was playing a record for a friend in which m was featured on. I think it was off the naz, I want to say the naz album. Uh, it's like naz epmd and eminem. They was on all on the record together and eminem had his verse.
Speaker 1:He was killing it right, doing his thing. And then bro, like like if there's a section there, like if he had cut it off there, like I would have been straight, like solid feature. But he kept going, bro, and it was like on some weird like. Then he changed the flow again and it was just like, bro, this is so unnecessary, like I didn't even want to hear all that. You know what I mean and so I don't know, bro. And as far as his albums, like it's like hitting myths with me. As far as his newer stuff, like some of the records are straight, but a lot of them like they just don't hit like that for real, right no, so so let me ask you this how do you, um, how are you, how are you uh, with, uh, any of the other three artists?
Speaker 2:well, I'll say the other three artists, because there are other artists and the up then smoke tour, but he said so I'll just start with cube. How you do you ever, do you, listen to cube?
Speaker 1:or, yeah, cube got a handful of records. I don't know if I've really heard albums from cube, though, you know, I just really know his singles for real, which is ironic that I actually played uh right, go to go to church right, yeah, that that's gonna brought me back because I remember that video and everything, bro, and that was one of my favorite like cube work. I remember that album, the um. I can't remember the title of it, I'll talk I could picture it.
Speaker 2:oh, um, was it terrorist threats? No, no, no, that was West side connection. That was um, was it?
Speaker 1:laugh now, cry later. It was definitely laugh now, cry later, cause they don't have. Why we thugs? Right, yeah, yeah, I remember bumping that. Yeah, yes, I know cute singles.
Speaker 2:I don't necessarily know his albums like that for real. You know what I'm saying. Yeah, so on his joints, uh, he, yeah, he basically did a lot of his uh. I mean he just did his main singles and then he did a couple songs from uh, I mean from now, from uh his older joints like uh, america's most wanted, okay, this is after nwa right and then he did his song with uh mc rand.
Speaker 2:I don't know if you're familiar with this song, but this is a song he used to play hell like so much on the radio. A song he had with him and dre him, dre and mc rand called uh, hello you remember that song I started this gangster shit.
Speaker 2:That's the motherfucking thing, bro. They used to play that song so much, but I used to fuck with that song. You can do it. We be clubbing. You know shit like that, right. And then. And then Eminem did a lot of his shit from um from the Marshall Mathers LP, right. And uh. Then of course, dr Dre and Snoop Dogg took over from there and started doing, uh, you know Next Episode, you know Snoop Dogg, right. And then they did a couple tributes One for Eazy-E, one for Big Pun, one for Roger Troutman, one for Biggie, a couple for Tupac, and then Dre started doing a couple songs from off the 2001 album.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, man, it's just a cool West Coast, just aftermath, just feel and like to all those guests that you said, man, that's like classic west coast tour right there let me ask you this have you ever seen this tour before?
Speaker 2:nah, we gotta watch it, yeah we gonna.
Speaker 1:We definitely fuck the bullshit yeah we're gonna watch it that's classic.
Speaker 2:I don't know where we gonna, if I gotta pay for it on this smart TV, we gonna find out. But up in smoke tour. If you're into West Coast vibe, eminem-ish Aftermath type deal, I would highly recommend you watch it. It's a classic, classic, classic, classic tour. Essential man definitely, definitely, recommend y'all listen that.
Speaker 2:And uh, yeah, it's my nomination for the tnt hall of fame. Well, my nomination for inductee into the tnt hall of fame is um jesus flow from 2005, 2006. The reason why I picked this right is that was definitely a moment of time that we will never get back, ever, because anybody that does that flow now sounds goofy, really goofy, and it sounds really bad and it messes up the song completely. But I don't know how jeezy was able to get away with that. But, bro, when he, when he hopped on a song like that, like it was, like it was, it was okay for him to do it bottom of the map, bottom of the map, right, like he was bouncing john jesus from the bottom of the map, gotta fit the round club, like he was. But like then he was strapped up, iced out, nigga play lights out quarter minute.
Speaker 2:Like bro, nobody else could do something like that. The red dolls tripping in just snitching, like, for example, boosie tried that on that. It ain't my Fault song. Terrible Hate that. I hate his part. It ain't my motherfucking fault. Like you sound goofy, like you sound really goofy. For my nomination I'm picking Jeezy's 2005-2006 flow. Now, correct me if I'm wrong. I feel like that was the only time he really used that flow. After that he started kind of like rapping on not necessarily rapping on beat, but like it wasn't like necessarily like a conversation flow, like that kind of sounds like a conversational type flow that is like slow and you can understand what he's saying and you know. Like.
Speaker 1:Like after a while he just started rapping like for real, yeah, no, that, uh, I definitely agree with you on that.
Speaker 1:I feel like, um, there's a, there's a significant difference between that jay-z and, like you know, uh, recession on, recession on, like literally that yeah, like them two albums right like inspiration and thug motivation 101 like that was a moment in time and part of it, that I think, um, like part of the reason, I think that jay-z, you know, was a little more like the flow, was like, just so, you know, unmatched was that? Um, it was a lot looser, you know what I mean like he was just kind of like it was it made it was weird because it was simplistic, but it was almost like catchy in the fact that it was like call and response. You know, because it's like you, like it was simple, the bars you know what I'm saying but just the way that it was loose and the way that he delivered it, like I don't know, it was just so engaging, you know I just feel like for our generation.
Speaker 1:When we first heard jeezy and he was rapping like that, it was just like damn bro, like I don't know what it is like he's spitting that real. And then it's like I don't know the flow, just hella catchy and they got that bounce and the music sounds good. You know what I mean. So, yeah, I just feel that, yeah, when ju, when jay-z had that loose flow like he had it on um, on gucci man's icy, you know, when he had the guest verse on there um 10 bro.
Speaker 1:05 05 06 bro like I think back to even get throw with bun b.
Speaker 2:You know what I mean exactly we was and, as a matter of fact, it's funny, we was listening to all the way home that I'm straight, right, oh yeah, that I'm straight, you know it's funny and I think around that time and his features he used to always start snowman bitch mr 17, 5, it was always snowman bitch, he always started songs like that. Thanks you already knew, you already knew. Every time he started off with that it was it was going to be some heat coming after that ironically mr snowman, snowman, he got some heat coming.
Speaker 2:That's funny it's crazy.
Speaker 1:No, I definitely respect that, definitely respect that. Um, wow, that's a, that's a hell of a nomination I gotta say Outro Music.
