You know what I do want to talk about, ladies and gentlemen? Our brother Nick Cannon. My good brother Nick Cannon. He's in the news. And I'm going to read the story they're saying about Nick Cannon. They're trying to get on our brother Nick Cannon's bumper because Nick Cannon was kind of critical of the Democrats. Um, Nick Cannon said, let me pull up the article. Let me look on it on Variety. Nick Cannon calls the Democratic Party the party of the KKK. And he says, "I f*** with Trump."
All right. So, Nick Cannon let his politics be known on a recent episode of his web show Big Drive, which he called the Democratic Party, the party of the KKK. After his guest, Model Amber, said that the Democrats don't care about people of color and the Republicans do. Oh, about that, Cannon replied, "Well, I agree with you 100%. People don't know that the Democrats are the party of the KKK. People don't know that the Republicans are the party that freed the slaves. I mean, both of you and I have some conservative views. You're just a little more outspoken than I am. And honestly, I don't subscribe to either party. I rock with W.E.B. Du Bois when he said there's no such thing as two parties. It's just one evil party with two different names." That's a bar.
Um, when discussing Donald Trump's second term, Cannon enthusiastically, enthusiastically, damn, I'm [ __ ] up. Enthusiastically said that motherf***er's cleaning house and is doing what he said he's going to do. "We got a Gulf of America now," Cannon added. "He's like the club. He's charging $5 million bottle service fees to get in the country."
While factions of the Democratic Party were responsible for the rise of the KKK after the Civil War, it's not widely believed that the entirety of the party endorsed the formation of the white supremacist group. Canon was partially right about the history of the Republicans. The party was founded in the early 1850s by anti-slavery activists. In 1861, Abraham Lincoln, a member of the Republican party, signed the Emancipation Proclamation and freed all the slaves living in non-Union states.
All right. So, a lot of people have been very critical of Nick Cannon because of this article and because of the podcast where he criticized the Democrats. All right. So, here's the thing. The Democrats, they're very good at attacking black people, especially black influential people who don't tow the line for the Democrats. Shout out to Nick Cannon, by the way. Nick is my guy. That's my brother. Real good dude. Nick is a very, very good guy.
Um, [ __ ] had me in this documentary he was doing about Nipsey and Dr. Sebi. I don't know if they shelved it because y'all know a few years ago they tried to get on Nick's bumper. They tried to, you know, put some bigotry on Nick. So, and that was coming from the left, by the way. So, I can understand where Nick Cannon's position is coming from. Those attacks where they were trying to cancel Nick, that was coming from the damn left. So, a lot of people are realizing that there's a lot of racism coming from the damn Democrats. So, if you say this, they try to paint you as you go, "Oh, well, you must be MAGA if you going to point out their damn racism." No, nobody's going to get a racism pass.
See, the Democrats, they they have this racist delusion that they own the black vote and by extension, they own black voices. Now, when white celebrities, when they look at different political avenues or even criticize the the liberals, they're treated as freethinking individuals exercising their American rights. They don't really get criticized. White celebrities, they're critical of both parties. They're critical of of liberal parties, the whole shebang. They don't get a lot of backlash for that. But when a black American celebrity like Nick Cannon, when [clears throat] they step out of line and speak factual history about the Democrats and the KKK, they're treated like runaway property. And you see a lot of the the Democrat shields attacking Nick Cannon online right now. So, it's not about the politics. It's all about punishing people like Nick and other black influences for having unauthorized independence. How dare you think independently? How dare you not tow the line? You know, that's like they they try to buck break us.
See, the dominant society, they use the liberal media apparatus to basically mob down on um certain black influences to try to humiliate them, destroy their character. Anytime a black person refuses to be a mascot for the damn Democrats, they try to make an example out of them. Just like with our good sister Janet Jackson when Janet wouldn't cosign Kamala. Oh, you know, they tried to go after Janet. Y'all remember when our good sister Janet who stood on business, so proud of her, so proud of our good sister Janet. Yeah. She didn't cosign Kamala. She was like, "Well, is she black?" And they were like, "How dare you, Janet?" No, no, no. Then we pulled up some receipts when they were prosecuting Michael back in the early 2000s. We had some some news footage of Kamala. She was in that whole mix, co-signing it low-key. She was low-key co-signing it. So, yeah, I'm assuming the Jackson family didn't forget. Yeah. So, I can understand why Janet wasn't co-signing that. Yeah. Shout out to our good sister Janet who's allegedly in a relationship with brother Mufasa Farrakhan. Shout out to the Farrakhan family. Yeah, she's she's clicked in deep with the NOI, by the way. So, that really makes the dominant society mad.
But, um, yeah, they try to punish us if we're not mascots for the Democrats. Oh, they they attack. They try to make an example out of you. If you don't stand in your place or blindly support them without demanding tangibles, they'll try to destroy you. They never run this play on white celebrities. Never. And there's a panic over foundational black American awakening and the loss of power that the Democrats are having. See, the vitro that's directed at Nick Cannon, that's that's rooted in panic. See, the Democrats right now, they are currently out of power at the highest levels. The Democrats are real desperate right now. They're desperate to to maintain their traditional voting blocks and they know that many foundational black Americans are waking up. They're moving away from blind loyalty. They're demanding specific political agendas right now. And because foundational black American culture is the most influential culture on the planet, when a heavily visible figure like Nick Cannon speaks out against the party's racist history, that threatens to wake up millions more people. So, they really don't like that. So, they got to kind of make an example out of them.
You know, just like they they attack me all the time. All these attacks that y'all see on me, that's funded by the Democrats, family. Just a non-stop barrage. Have y'all just listened through Spaces randomly and hear all these people randomly attacking me? That's Democrat shield [ __ ]. Yeah, that's Democrat shield [ __ ] because these people are desperate because you have black people waking up and they got to find somebody to attack to make an example out of. So they try to make an example out of me. It doesn't work because I ain't the leader of anybody. I've never said I'm a leader. So that whole "we're going to attack Tariq as a leader of a lineage" which is ridiculous. It always falls flat and it further pushes people to delineate because it shows the desperation of the Democrats. You understand?
The Democrats, their tactic is to have all of their little bought and paid for flunkies to just constantly attack us online. Also, again, we've had some Democrat shields come among us at our events, literally sabotaging some of our events from the inside out or trying to, but we kind of play past that and we saw what it was and we kept it pushing. But they actually sent Democrat shields physically [snorts] to get up under us and get real close so they can sabotage our events. It's real heavy. So, a lot of people are very turned off by the Democrats and the way they've been treating the black constituency. And the thing is with the Democrats, their whole thing is deflecting from their own white supremacist history. What Nick Cannon said struck a nerve because he pulled the covers off the Democrats party's track record, you know, and what the Democrats like to do, they they like to point the finger at racism only when it's the Republicans. That's the only time they'll talk about racism or somebody being racist from the dominant society, when they can point at some right-wingers or they can just point at Trump and put all the racism on them. But we don't let the Democrats hide their racism.
You see, racism is a political football to the Democrats. They'll they just blow the whistle when the person is conservative, but they weaponize our historic trauma to strictly attack their political rivals. You see, they never protect us. They could have had a hate crime bill to protect us for a long time. They've never done that. They've never given us specific tangibles. So, what they try to do with us, they try to act like the lesser of two evils. The entire Democrat strategy relies on political extortion. Basically pointing at the Republicans saying, "Hey, you better vote for us because those guys are the real racists. So you better vote for us. If you don't vote for us, you going to let the racists win. Do you want the racists to win?" They try to play that game.
Now, if they look inward and look at the anti-black racism coming from the white liberals, their whole minority coalition, that's just as anti-black racist. They don't want to deal with that because if they start dealing with that, their whole house of cards is going to collapse. When they acknowledge their own institutional racism, that destroys the illusion that the left is a safe haven for black Americans. So they have to ignore their own racism or that extortion hustle stops working. That's why they're losing right now because we see that fake people of color coalition that [clears throat] they are trying to protect. They ignore that that vile anti-black racism coming from these other minority and immigrant groups. You see the Democrat party, they rely on that artificial people of color coalition to inflate their numbers. See, they need that for their numbers. And they know that many of these non-FBA groups hold this deep-seated anti-black racism. But instead of correcting them, the white liberal establishment, they cover for them. They sit up and let these Tethers and these these Hispanics and Asians and all these other people disrespect our lineage all day long. You understand? And do nothing about it and say nothing about it. But if we say something against them, we'll get attacked. Remember the the hate crime bill for the Asians. Remember, they started targeting black people. Black people in New York started getting federal charges just by having arguments with Asians. If they had an argument with an Asian person, they get hit with a hate crime. You see? So yeah, we get attacked, but none of these people get checked for disrespecting us, some of these minority groups and people of color.
So yeah, this is why we're getting away from that party loyalty thing. And we're saying, hey, whichever parties out there, y'all need to break bread. Y'all need to break bread because pointing the fingers at the right, that's free. That's easy for the Democrats to do. It cost the Democrats absolutely nothing to call a Republican a racist or whatever. But acknowledging the systematic anti-black policies upheld by white liberals, white Hispanics, and their donors within the Democrat party and the white the white want-to-be Asians and the East Indians who want to be white, calling all of them out. You don't want to do that. Oh, they don't want to do that because now you're going to have to deliver some some tangibles to fix that. But focusing on the other side, you can successfully deflect the conversation away from reparative justice. And we're not going for that no more. So, shout out to my brother Nick Cannon for calling them out. They need to be called out. And calling them out don't make you MAGA. You can like or dislike two things at the same time.
Let me get some of the family in here. Let me get some of the family in here real quick, ladies and gentlemen. Let me talk to you. All right. What kind of noise my lady in here making?

The white Hispanics and the white supremacists and the Asians, all of them get together and just plot against the black community out here. They um plot to keep black people out of jobs out here. They plot behind the scenes to sabotage us black business owners out here and it's all the liberals doing it. All right, that's the reality. [clears throat] Excuse me.

Um the other thing that I wanted to address with you is that woman Primila uh whatever her name is, she's Indian um Indian-born um house representative out of either Washington or Oregon. um was on the news talking about she wants reparations for illegal immigrants because of their trauma. >> Wow. >> So um I don't know if you heard cuz you're in you were in the LA area.

Okay. And and hoping you and your family's doing well. >> We are. Thank you. Thank you so much beloved. I talked about that her giving the that grant to Asians for homelessness and they always tell us you can't do things for specific ethnic groups but they manage to do them for these ethnic groups all the time. But yeah, um um Chile from TLC, she gave some money to the Republicans. She donated to them. So now the the the left, they're on her bumper now. They're trying to shame her and criticize her. They got this thing here when when black people, black public figures don't support the republic uh don't support the Democrats. Oh, it's like, "Oh, we got to punish you." How dare you? How dare you not tow the line.
Um, Jeremy, what's up, Jeremy? >> Hey, what's up, bro? >> I'm good, man. What's going on with you, Jeremy? >> Uh, just hanging out.

You got your check. You got your damn check and then went to the trap and got you a little something to smoke on. >> Yes. >> Every Saturday. >> You are you are filling them lungs up, Lord. So, what's on your mind, beloved? >> Oh, nothing. Um, I listened to your live the other day and you did the poll about if you were going to take the 19 Keys guy out. >> Yeah. So, um, it was, I believe before we left that live, it was decided you were going to take him out. Right. >> Right. Right. >> So, then I was on another space today and they're saying, "Oh, I'll be damned if he take him off." And I said, "Well, why why don't y'all believe that he will? I I just don't believe he will." And another guy [clears throat] was on there defending it and saying he wouldn't ask if, you know, he he didn't care about his viewers. So, one of the ladies said, "Why didn't he just do a private poll like what people just contributed only?" And it's just like, you cannot win for nothing. It's It's always a bad faith argument, you know, always some downplayer hating ass stuff. It just drives me crazy. >> So, I said it's He confirmed it. He confirmed he's taking him out because he respected his his um his subscribers, >> right? Absolutely. Absolutely. >> So, >> so yeah. Thank Thank you, beloved. Yeah, but yeah, he's um Yeah, he's Yeah, I'm taking him out. Yeah, the family wanted out, so I'm taking him out. Yeah, I don't know what people think that I wouldn't. Yeah, the family don't want it in. I ain't going to be in just out of respect for the fam. The fam don't want to see them. All right. And this is a community project, man. The community has invested in it. The community has supported it. So, This is what makes these films so good. We do them for the community. Whatever y'all want, what y'all want to discuss, who y'all want to see, who y'all don't want to see. So, that's what makes it good. You know, this is grassroots. It's a grassroots project. Yeah. We don't we don't have no [ __ ] ass agendas. No, no, no. This is what makes the Hidden Color series so good. It's really grassroots. Whatever the grassroots wants, that's what we're going to give you. And then some if somebody say, "Oh, we don't want that person." Oh, that person ain't a good look. We won't have them in there. You know, cuz I don't The problem is again with agendas. That's what makes a lot of [ __ ] on TV corny. That's what makes a lot of movies and films corny. That's out from the Hollywood system. They you trying to watch one thing and they're pushing an agenda that you don't really want to rock with. It just turns you off. Just like certain shows like I the power shows I love Power um Raising Kanan and all that Raisin Kanan some of the the other seasons I didn't quite get into but um the Power show it was very good but it's it started throwing me off when they kept putting in them damn Drew scenes y'all know what I'm talking about the brother Drew through. So they had him as a queen in there just literally for no reason and watching it. They and the producers know that people didn't want to watch his scenes. When Drew got on camera, I I'm assuming people just got up and started going to to the restroom, going to get something to eat or whatever. When you saw Drew on camera, you knew it was about to be something sassy. So what they would do it was that was Power, right? Yeah, that was Power. That was that was the Power show. Yeah, that was the Power. [sighs and gasps] So what they would do, they would basically bombard you with Drew scenes. They would sideswipe you with his scenes. If y'all notice the the last few seasons of Power, not the one with the with James St. Patrick, but the one with um the son Tariq in college and all that [snorts] when he was clicked in with Mary J. Blige and all them, they would ambush you with his scenes because they knew people didn't want to see it. So they'll have a very intense scene that's real gangster and then you're hooked in by watching this gangster scene and then the very next scene Drew is bent over some dude on top of him. I'm like hey man the [ __ ] They would literally start ambushing the audience with them scenes. I'm like man come on bro man come on. Damn you. Y'all, man, they would piss me off doing that, man. They would really tick me off doing that. Yeah, Empire just I I had to I just stopped watching. Empire was good, then it just it became too agenda. It's I'm I'm good. I'm not watching no damn agenda. This is It's corny. I just thought Yeah, that's why Empire ended up falling off. It just fell off. Y'all pushing too hard for some separate damn agenda. Just give us the storyline. The storyline is good then it's oh man, you know. So that's I I don't want to I don't do that with my films. You know, whatever what the community wants, what the grassroots wants, that's what we're going to deliver. We're not going to have all these ulterior motives, all these other weird agendas, none of that [ __ ] because that [ __ ] is corny. And I listen to the people. The people know what's up.
Um, who is this? Um, TMP. Hey, what's up, brother? >> Hey, T. How you doing, brother? >> I'm good. >> Good, man. Good, man. Uh, man, long time listener for real. For real, man. Just uh I ain't going to be here too long, but basically um one of my biggest questions are, I guess, not my concerns being an FBA brother myself. >> Yes. >> I know I I know you tend to punch down on the Tethers, which you know, I'm feeling that. You know what I'm saying? You know, the >> jokes or whatnot, but it's like, do we need to address what's going on in the FBA community more so as far as just the infighting and things of that nature? I know I I probably be called a a [ __ ] but just, you know, like I said, I ain't going to be on here too long. Just I want to, you know, poke your brain on that. The infighting like how >> like I know you said crime is down in the FBA because like I said I'm FBA all day. You know what I'm saying? From North Carolina. I'm in Colorado right now. I got a 96-year-old grandmother from Concord, North Carolina. Like both sides all the way down. So it's just like I know what's really going on in these streets. You know what I'm saying? Like and I I feel it like cuz like you got to play to your audience. But it's like, bro, black folks, we didn't really like I don't really feel like the tether class is really the biggest under people that's undermining us as a community. That's just my, you know, that's just my opinion. Like, so I just wanted to, you know, I know like that's not your lane and that, you know, you going to do what you want to do. That's your platform. But I just like, you know, like it's kind of like the elephant in the room. Like we don't really talk about that enough. I feel like >> what's the Okay, let's talk about it. What's the elephant in the room? What What's the problem? Like, man, we can talk about the black-on-black violence. Like, I ain't trying to go there. You know what I'm saying? I'm more of a, you know what I'm saying? Like, I crunchy. I kind of rock with Crunchy's message in some in some regard. You know what I'm saying? Like, I mean, I listen to all you. I'm 30, I'm 36 years old, man. You know what I'm saying? I'm one of I'm an older millennial, so it's like I kind of know what's going on. You know what I'm saying? My father was a police officer. It just like that enough. >> Your dad is a cop. Where's your dad from? >> Daddy Popos. [laughter] >> I'm I'm from North Carolina. He was a sergeant in Concord, North Carolina. >> Where in North Carolina? >> Yeah. Right near Charlotte. He He's a retired My father's retired. He's a He's a uh he's the what's the name? Baby Boomer.

Been here about almost two years. >> Totally. >> Yeah. I moved out here about 35. I'm I'll be 37 this year. So >> Wow. >> Where's your Where's Where's your wife from? >> She's from uh out here. She's from here. >> Colorado. >> Yes, sir. >> Okay. >> White woman. >> She's not. >> She's not. I'm sorry. >> She Mexican. >> Nah, she's not. She's black. >> Okay. >> She's black. >> If you want, like I said, I can I can rattle it all day long as far as my lineage. You know what I'm saying? I turn the I got locks, but I got I ain't got no janky hairline. It ain't none of that. >> Let's see what's going on. Hop on camera. Let's see what's happening. >> Hold on. Hold on. I'm at the job. Give me one second. >> Yes, indeed. I'm at the job getting this chicken all day. You can hear it to my voice. I'm black all day. >> All right. All right. All right. Let's see what's going on.

Like I just moved to over here at 35 years old. >> Okay. >> I moved here right >> I'll be 37 in May. Okay. >> You know what I'm saying? Like >> and kind like I know, like I said, that's my lane. My my platform I do kind of punch down on the FBA community sometime. >> Kind of like crunchy. But it's like I like I said, I ride with you, Trina [ __ ] You feel me? I ride with your message because a lot of black folks really need what you're putting into them and what you're infusing as far as pride, racial pride, things of that nature. But like, like I said, I'm educated. I I graduated. I got a bachelor's degree in criminal justice. Like I said, like FBA all day. My grandma is 96 years old. Like you I'm not one of those guys. I'm not no tether. You know what I'm saying? Like I'm FB on both side. My grandfather fought in World War II. R.I.P. to my grandfather. Fought in Korean conflict. Like this. So why do you So but you say you punch down on the foundational black American community. So >> Well, my own community. My own community. Well, I I I consider myself FBA. >> Okay. Right. >> Either are you not. It's you know. >> Yeah. I am I am like I said I went to North. >> Are you a pan-African? >> No. Okay. >> Not at all. >> Okay. >> Not at all. Like ain't none of that Umar going on, dog. I don't >> Tethers Tethers are definitely a problem but they're not the biggest problem. That's my like they're definitely as far as the Obamas, that class of people, they're definitely here to as far as undermine us politically. I do agree with that. Like this it's example after example. I'm not with the Democration. I'm not with the conservatives. I'm not none of that. I'm just a freethinking black man. You know what I'm saying? >> Right. >> Yeah. Millennial. You know what I'm saying? So, I'm just like I said, I ride with just >> I understand that, brother. But yeah, because you you talking in circles. I'm trying to see what the real issue is cuz you say you're saying >> black on black violence and degeneracy and and as far as just where is all this black-on-black violence? >> Well, where I'm from, it's a lot. If you talk about Memphis, Charlotte, you can talk about a lot of places. >> No, I'm from I'm from right near Charlotte, North Carolina. >> What you talking about Memphis for? >> Because that's a that is a town that's synonymous with violence, man. >> Really? I'm from Memphis. My people from Memphis. It is a It is a town that's synonymous with black-on-black violence, man. Like, I know we're not going to be here. >> It's not Memphis. Memphis is not synonymous with black-on-black violence. >> No, it's not. >> Young Dolph getting gunned down at the cookie shop. That's nothing. >> Yeah. That's Young Dolph getting gunned down. Nobody co-signed that. Everybody was against that. [laughter] >> Yeah. Just because there's a high-profile shooting don't mean that's synonymous with violence. Most people condemn that out there, >> right? Yeah, >> was loved in Memphis. >> Yeah. So, so we're going to paint the narrative that black people are just holding hands kumbaya and across America. That's what >> for the most part kumbaya. >> For the most part, we are. >> Yeah. For the most part, we are >> Hispanic. I agree. Like, yeah, for the most part we are. There's more of us holding hands, singing kumbaya than committing violence on each other. There's way more of us on some kumbaya [ __ ] than us committing violence. violent crime. >> Maybe the older class. Maybe the older class. I'm not denying the fact like I'm older at this point. I'm I'm with you. Like I'm like maybe the older class the people that come to the Hidden History Museum that class that you allow in there cuz I think you have a certain age limit to even get in there, right? But maybe the old I can see that with the older class. >> No, my there's a man there's what a thousand and some there's a thousand and some people in here. This is TikTok. Most of my audience here young. >> Max Bag I like I said I've worked in clubs. I bounced. Like I said, I played football, college. I've been I've been out in the streets. I've been to Durham, North Carolina. Went to school in Durham. I've been out here. Like I said, I just uh like I said, I'm not here to try to paint no narrative like you know what I'm saying? Like I know you have your lane, which is what it is. But >> but yeah, cuz earlier you said I got to kind of cater to my audience. No, I'm going to just tell the truth. I cater to the truth. Whatever's the truth. >> So where's all this where's all this black on black violence? That's just Yeah. Black vi violent crime with black people is down lower than it's been since the 1960s. It's at an all-time low right now. That's just a reality. Y'all can look that up. >> Hey. Hey. No, I agree with that. I do feel like I do feel that. I do feel that. I know I'm living somewhere there. It's not it's not a high population of black people. I'm near right near Denver. That's the highest population of black people in Colorado. It's not a lot of people here. No way. But I'm just saying in general like that was one of the main reasons why I like I just want to even move here just to find like just to see a different perspective on life you know why I'm not I grew up south [laughter] >> you know what I'm saying a lot of reasons yeah people want to bounce and leave and right that people move for economics even the comments like the coons like that's that's how that's the first thing people jump to whenever you speak I feel like that is the problem and and and this is also so you trying to tell me most black people out here so all y'all families is working together. All y'all have businesses in your families. Y'all uh uh using your um finances to build things in your families. Like come on. Like let's be honest. Like I come from a family of a a boule class. Everybody is not like just working together in unity. >> Nobody said that. >> No. No. Cuz you now you have >> Yeah. Cuz that's not the truth. Like people are black people are we are dysfunctional. We don't work together like like as far as I I commend the people that uh that put money on the Hidden History Museum like bro to be able to crowdfund to get that type of money in that type of time. a beautiful thing. Why can't we do that for anything else in this community? Like that's that's one of the things I want to get on here talk about. Why can't we why can't people donate a dollar to somebody like Tariq Nasheed? Like if we got 40 million black FBAs, why don't people actually use that dollar to do something productive? Like I feel your film is something that's going to resonate with the black community. >> They they do. We just got to get the right people to do where we just >> I'm like I'm not I'm not trying to talk, but I'm saying where >> we just raised a quarter of a million dollars last week, sir, >> for a movie. >> Right. For a movie, >> right? An educational. >> Can we do that? Can we do that for other things? >> Yeah, we can. >> We can. We got to get truck. >> Well, well, like what? Well, Michael Jordan opened up a uh health centers like in North Carolina and women in Charlotte. But I'm just saying it's a lot of things that we need. Like we know we're not >> like what, brother? What you just you're just kind of talking in circles, man. Like what what what do we need that everybody needs to donate to and to who? >> Like what do we tangibly need as a black community in America? Yeah, >> definitely a great >> better education or I mean let me see >> like I said I mean just the main things that I will focus on would be education businesses like uh Dr. Claude Anderson talked about how the black family or black people have to go to the white community to ask for uh jobs and things of this nature. Like we don't like if we use the money that we have, we 40 million strong. If we got a a third of that to donate a dollar, then that's millions of dollars a week. Like people work. I'm working right now. >> So how come you don't have a business then? >> I do have a business. I do have a business. Yes. I have a EIN. I have a escort. Yeah. I do I do I got a courier service uh as far as doing deliveries, expediting stuff like that with cargo van. I work part-time security right now. >> I actually got a job working with uh working with ICE. I'm about to get a job working with ICE. >> But yeah, you got all these jobs, but you got a business. It's how you going to have your business popping. Yeah. Most of your hours. >> I got I got five kids, man. I got to keep it going. I got >> So you have a job, brother. You don't You don't really have a business. You got a job. >> I got a I got a small business. I got You know >> Yeah. cuz you all if if you spending all your time working a other 9 to 5, you're not really feeding a business like that. Running a business is damn nearly a 24-hour operation. >> Oh, yeah. But running a business also, it's like, as you as you alluded to before, we're not getting a lot of funding from the SB, the government. Like, it's going to have to come from somewhere. My father was a business owner. He owned real estate. He retired from the police department. Like, once you have a business, it got to come from somewhere. You know what I'm saying? Where's it going to come from? Where >> you got five kids? How many baby mamas you got? I got two. I got actually got a wife and I got a baby mama. >> A wife and a baby mama. >> So I got my Yeah. I got four for my wife. My oldest child uh is with my baby mama out in Detroit. Where you from? Right. >> Right. Right. >> Yeah, man. The D man. Hey. But no, I mean like I said, I'm I ain't want to be ahead and like I said, just blowing smoke all day. I ain't trying to think all the time on the live, but I like I didn't hear the live or what was going on earlier. I wish I could. I just jumped on late. >> Yeah. >> But yeah, man. Like I said, that's just my opinion, man. I just want to get my face out there and just get my opinion out the stoke a conversation. You know what I'm saying? >> All right. >> All right, brother. All right. Well, I appreciate you, brother. Thank you so much, man. Thank you for >> Oh, yeah, man. >> All right. Okay. Uh, I don't know what that was about. Something Something is weird about that. Yeah, that's something weird about that. I don't know. That's Was he just trying to be a contrarian? Man, it's just a lot of black-on-black crime. All right. Where where's all this black on black crime? Yeah. Family. Yeah. That black violent crime is down with black people. Vi most a lot of violent crime is actually down. Yeah. And pointing out Yeah. Memphis is synonymous with black-on-black crime. No, it's not. No. Y'all not going to put that [ __ ] on Memphis. Memphis cool ass people. No, you're not going to put that on Memphis now. No. No. No. Memphis got cool people. cool people in Memphis. Yeah. Because there's a high-profile violent crime that happened there, that doesn't mean that the people are complicit with that. No, that's just there was a high-profile crime, you know. Yeah, there's some janky people within the community. There's janky people in every community. But yeah, there the janky people don't define the community. We're not doing that. And yes, there are more of us who are cool by ya than those of us who are violent and on the [ __ ] Yeah, most of us are cool as hell. If you get around foundational black Americans, most of them are going to be very cool. That's the reality. No, no, no. That's the reality. Then when I'm asking where's all these where's all the this crime happening? I don't want to hear all that Chicago [ __ ] because there Chicago is like the go-to. All right. What about everybody who ain't living in Chicago? All right. There's not a just an epidemic of violent crime in in Memphis or North Carolina. Yeah, you got your riff raffs out there, but it's not no epidemic [snorts] thing going on out there. Crime is regulated to certain neighborhoods. [snorts] All right.
