Our email address is the BlackParadigm77 at gmo.com. If you didn't catch that, for the niggas in the front, the middle, and in the back, our email address is the BlackParadigm77 at Gmail.com. And just a disclaimer, I feel like we have to start doing this disclaimer. You know, this is strictly for niggas. So this podcast, strictly for niggas, the niggas, uh, Negroes, um, anybody that has melanated skin um from a um that is black. Yes, yes, yes, that has black in them, okay? So, you know, you know, uh, all just black people, period. From the diary.

Don't make me call Porsha. But see, you wouldn't get that reference. So I'm a good one.

SPEAKER_01 1:23

You wouldn't. They would they wouldn't.

SPEAKER_04 1:24

They'd be like, oh my god, I I I don't know.

SPEAKER_01 1:28

Shut the fuck up. We don't care.

SPEAKER_04 1:30

What my girl said. Sound like a fucking bunch again.

SPEAKER_01 1:43

Oh, what's up, niggas? We are we back. We're here. Um, we're gonna have a conversation that is going to get really deep, um, which I feel like we're gonna have like we have to have this discussion. Um but before we even get into all of that, how's your mental health, baby?

SPEAKER_04 2:08

You know, my mental health is you know, I'm in a good place. Um I'm free. As I mentioned last week, I'm still bound, but when I can talk, I will definitely talk. But yes, you know, um I got into a little bit on System Sync, but I'm not working currently under some certain situations. But best believe I'm gonna go over here. So once I get once I can, I I will. Um but yeah, so I lost like three pounds in two days because I wasn't stressed out from my previous employment. Um life is changing, life is moving. Does it suck not working? But like, yeah, it does because I'm used to being independent and having my own stuff. But does life go on? Fuck yeah. I'm in the gym, I'm active. I don't have to worry about no bald headed white man breathing out my fucking back. Um I don't have to worry about masking all the time. I don't have to worry about you know what I'm saying, just the passive essence and being a black woman in a w in the white workplace. Um I hung out with my old team today and it was magnificent. It was so beautiful. Um so my mental health is actually in a good place. I think you know it goes in it goes in like moments where it's like, damn, you know, you feel like oh because the hard part is not knowing what's next. And I think that's what bothers me. So yeah, I'm just you know, everything happens to a reason. I'm trying to see the positive. I'm getting back into my spirituality, my relationship with God, my personal relationship with him.

SPEAKER_03 3:52

Right.

SPEAKER_04 3:53

My body back together. Now, thunder and lightning, you being disrespectful.

SPEAKER_01 3:59

But Well, hopefully when I edit uh this, hopefully they won't hear the thunder and lightning. But baby, it is it is doing some damage in Clarksville, baby. I'm you know, and that and that's crazy. I don't I don't want to cut it, but baby, it says right now that it's just mostly cloudy. See, the weather app can't even detect the weather anymore. That's how I know.

SPEAKER_04 4:22

At this point, the shit broke. Y'all turn CERN off, y'all going too damn mud. Y'all, and then it was just like it wasn't supposed to start raining until 10 o'clock. And I know 10 o'clock.

SPEAKER_01 4:32

They can't even predict the weather.

SPEAKER_04 4:34

Even like TJ, I can't, I was driving me and my mom home. We went out to dinner with, like I said, I had I met with the girls today. Yeah. And you're seeing like, you know how you take a picture? Like, and you have like a flash? Yeah. And I was like, damn, that was a big flash. I'm like, well, I'm driving. Of course I didn't take a picture. But it literally, it was like lightning and spurts. We didn't hear thunder at the time, but it literally looked like somebody was just pressing, it was unnatural. I've never seen nothing like it. It was like somebody was just pressing the flash in the sky. I said, let me get flash my ass on the motherfucking house because bitch, what is this?

SPEAKER_01 5:09

So I forgot to tell you when I left when we were up there for your mom's, uh moms and dad's um uh wedding. Well, yeah, yeah. Well, wedding. Yeah, part two. You know, it was a wedding. It was a wedding.

SPEAKER_03 5:24

It was a wedding.

SPEAKER_01 5:25

Yes, renewal, you know, a wedding. But after I left, right, and I know you saw my location, baby. Going from Clarksville back to Nashville and like just seeing, because you going down, right? And I'm seeing lightning, like it's just a fucking show. I have never, and I meant to talk to you about that, and I'm glad you brought uh brought that weather shit up because I'm like, I've never seen lightning like that. Like, just like you know what I'm saying? I know they have it in the West Coast and like all of that, but over here, I ain't seen so many strikes like that.

SPEAKER_04 6:04

And it's horrible on post, like, because it's a lot of open land. So, like, you're driving to Kentucky, because kind of like how Clarkson, Tennessee is, you could be in the pigly wiggly and be in the state of Califor of uh Kentucky and Tennessee at the same time. Literally it's on state line road. TJ knows exactly what I'm talking about, but like you could be driving past the base or going wherever you're going in that area, and you could just see big lightning bolts and this. No, somehow you can just see lightning and not hear a lick of thunder.

SPEAKER_01 6:33

No. And that that's been us for the last couple of weeks here in Tennessee. Like, you see lightning, you rarely hear thunder.

SPEAKER_04 6:40

Now, we've heard thunder the last few days. Like yesterday, today, last Sunday was horrible. I took a three-hour nap from one to four. It was raining just that hard and thunder. I was just like, you know what? Let me there.

SPEAKER_01 6:55

We're on the flood watch. We on the flood watch for the next two days, so it is what it is.

SPEAKER_04 7:01

I mean, we've built on all of our barriers. Like, so every time it rains, Clarksville floods now. It's just, it's, it's sad.

SPEAKER_01 7:09

Oh, baby, Brentwood, the Brentwood YMCA flooded. We only got like two inches of rain. Baby, the new facility that they built, the new YMCA in Brentwood, Tennessee, their whole fucking parking lot was flooded. I know they was pissed. Because you mean y'all built a new facility and y'all didn't understand. You know what? I think, honestly, there's just some really dumb people. Because you know it rains in Tennessee. You know, sometimes we flood. Sometimes certain areas in Tennessee flood in middle Tennessee.

SPEAKER_03 7:46

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_01 7:47

So, what you mean that you got a whole parking lot that's flooded?

unknown 7:52

Crazy.

SPEAKER_01 7:54

Where's the money going to? Where's all this motherfucking money going to? All this fucking money into the tour. You know what I'm saying? That money should be you. That's another subject. We'll get into that later. But back to your mental health, babe.

SPEAKER_04 8:08

Oh, shoot, I forgot. Um You was to She's straight. I mean, listen, y'all. I had a pinnacular and a little something shovel. You can do this.

SPEAKER_01 8:21

Listen, I told Ashley, I said, let's get this show going because I don't need your ass falling asleep. It's cheap.

SPEAKER_04 8:26

And I got y'all looking at his ass. No, listen, last week I I know I fell asleep on air. I just had my release just once I said what I had to say, I'm just all right, I feel asleep.

SPEAKER_01 8:40

It was good, but that was good though. We needed you to say that because a lot of people are just like, okay, what's going on? Like, what's happening? But we we love that. And and I I commend you. I really do. Because I feel like these last couple of months, you have, baby, you have been through it.

SPEAKER_04 8:57

When I say life took me by my little thin ass little edge on my right side of my head and working with me, you spin my head around and round right. Yeah, spit my ass round and round and round. But I'm good. But no, um, but no, don't play with me. I I've been staying up the last few months prior to last week's episode.

SPEAKER_01 9:17

Y'all see how she got, she said, uh, first of all, don't do the edge.

SPEAKER_04 9:22

You know, spring, summer, joggers. Um, how's your mental health?

SPEAKER_01 9:28

Mine, um, it's good. I got a therapy session coming up um this coming week uh with my black therapist. Um Clockett.

SPEAKER_01 9:41

Um, I am, you know, still at my job, which, you know, I told y'all episodes ago that I was like, I don't know what the fuck is gonna happen. I really don't. I didn't know because these bitches weren't approving shit. And then I had a talk with Cedric today, and they were like, well, no, you need to, like, you've done everything you needed to do. Like, you just need to go in there because certain things that my job can't talk to Cedric about, which I understand. It's like, you know, health, privacy, and all of that. She's like, you just need to go in there and say this is what it is. And I was like, cool, whatever. Um, but it's been good, you know. Um, not looking for new jobs right now. Uh I got a lot going on uh with Swirl. Uh about to open that. Um I know y'all been seeing this shit on my on my Instagram. Uh I don't want to say shit, but seeing the restaurant. Um, yeah. So I've been posting a little bit on Family Reunion Network, so you see that or whatever. Um, you know, I've been good. I've been good. Family is good right now. Uh I've been checking in ever since all this shit's been going on. Um, been checking in. So I feel good. I feel good. I am at peace. I know after this podcast, uh, after this episode, I'm gonna take me to edible because I'm off tomorrow. And I'm about to watch, I'm about to get into the vampire Lestat on AMC.

SPEAKER_04 11:11

Okay, so where do you watch that at? Where is it?

SPEAKER_01 11:13

AMC. AMC Plus.

SPEAKER_04 11:16

So what app?

SPEAKER_01 11:18

AMC Plus. That's the app.

SPEAKER_04 11:20

We gotta get into the subscription. Damn, okay.

SPEAKER_01 11:22

Well, I think they're doing a one-month free trial, so you could just hop on that and just you know, watch all the episodes. Because I think it's like five episodes. I'm on episode one.

SPEAKER_04 11:30

I've never watched any of it. I wanted to get into all of it.

SPEAKER_01 11:33

Oh, girl.

SPEAKER_04 11:37

Um, she let him. I, I, I, I am fianza. Oh, I know.

SPEAKER_01 11:44

That um listen, when I tell you, we're gonna get into that because it ain't a coincidence that sorry.

SPEAKER_03 11:49

Uh oh.

SPEAKER_01 11:50

Uh-oh. It ain't co it ain't a coincidence that we see in a whole bunch of femininity like happening right now.

SPEAKER_04 11:58

The divine feminine is coming, but here's the thing too. I've and I forgot the art I forgot the name of the author of those books, but in her contract, anybody that touches her material for movies or for video, Akasha must be a black woman. That is specified.

SPEAKER_01 12:17

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 12:17

And why wouldn't she?

SPEAKER_01 12:19

Right, right. Hello. What are we doing? Isn't the mother what? Fucking contract. Okay. Well, let's get into Ashley's Corner, babe. What you got?

SPEAKER_04 12:33

Ashley's corner. Well, first, this is no relation, but like um all of Glorilla's new songs are as we garbage. What's going on? That's not Ashley's Corner, but I just how mad your talent got poof.

SPEAKER_01 12:53

But um Can I say something today?

SPEAKER_04 12:55

I know we're go ahead.

SPEAKER_01 12:58

I I specifically don't know what happened to Glorilla and Megan the Stallion's relationship, but what I see is that No, no, no, no.

SPEAKER_04 13:09

I but I thought you didn't know like what literally happened to.

SPEAKER_01 13:14

No, no, no. I I mean I've seen the tweets and everything like that. My synopsis is that when you have so many yes men around you that try to pump you up, that try to tell you that you're better than this person. Now let's not forget Megan the Stallion asked you to come on tour with her. She was really trying to give you a light. We know you've had your own tour and everything like that. We know that Glorilla has had her own tour, right? But Megan the Stallion wanted you to come on tour with her. I don't know the relationship between you and her, but the thing about it is when you let people tell you about somebody else and you let people gas you up, the shit never works. It might work for a minute, but see, that song with you and Megan the Stallion, that won you a couple of awards. You even performed that. What? Was it the uh the VMAs or the MTV movie or movie awards? It was one of them. My thing is this. Everything that y'all try to do to Megan the Stallion, she still comes up on top. Because I, in my heart, I feel like she's a very, like she's a genuine person that tries to help other women. I just, I feel sorry that every time she tries to put her light on someone, they just, they just fuck shit up for her. Like I just, I don't, I don't understand what it's showing.

SPEAKER_04 14:47

Aquarius does. An Aquarius is a water barrier. So if you want to get into this astrologically, like Aquarius and Pisces being the two final signs of the Zodiac signs, we kind of encompass everything. So every time I've met an Aquarius, there are, they are a mirror to who you truly are. If an Aquarius comes into your life, if you're doing good, your life is gonna, the path is gonna stay straight. If you're fucking up being an evil person, an Aquarius is gonna reveal that every fucking time.

SPEAKER_01 15:16

Yeah, because my mom's an Aquarius. And I'm a Libra.

SPEAKER_04 15:20

Ooh, chah.

SPEAKER_01 15:21

So I gravitate, I I gravitate towards, I mean, I gravitate towards air signs anyways, but most of the women in my life are either an Aquarius, Pisces, or Virgo.

SPEAKER_04 15:35

And see, Virgo's on my sister's side. That's why. Love me a good Virgo.

SPEAKER_01 15:40

Yeah. But yeah, sorry. I just I just wanted to say that because I just feel like every time just talk about Megan the Stallion, you know, I'm so glad that Monoleo and all the other artists, like um Flo Millie and all of them, like they are still like they love Meg down and everything like that. And I knew it, I knew that it wasn't Meg didn't do anything because these, y'all, y'all deranged like fans, I don't understand what it is. Y'all want these people to beef with everybody. Y'all want these people to beef with everybody. And y'all pumped her up. Y'all really did. I like I'm I'm I'm proud of Glow. I'm proud that she made it out of Memphis where she was. But at the same time, it's like, what are we doing? Like, what the fuck are we really doing? So that's all I gotta say about that. I just, I, I, I just, I'm confused. I I was I was so confused. I was like, why the fuck is this even a thing? Why are you letting people gas you up? Because at the end of the day, Megan really helped you out a lot. I mean, y'all had a sold-out Madison Square Garden show. But I digress. Um, go ahead, baby.

SPEAKER_04 16:51

I just listen, it's uh child. Anyway, so Axis Corner is no matter what you believe spiritually, if this shit is not supposed to be in your life, it's gonna get taken from you or you're gonna get plucked out. And sometimes you don't see the big picture, but it is for the better. So there is beauty in not knowing. There is beauty in sometimes you actually getting the chance to sit down, live life, focus on what you're what you like and what you're passionate about, or even just catch up with over. There is beauty in restructuring and starting over again. Am I big age of 32? I'm starting completely over, and I feel hopeful. So Astros Corner was pretty short today, but I'm proud of you.

SPEAKER_01 17:46

I know there are people on this motherfucking app on Instagram, on Twitter, talking about they're starting over at 39, 40, 41, 42. And I feel like in this day and age, everyone is starting. I feel like at least 30 to 40% of people right now are starting over. Things are happening. And honestly, I think it's more than that. I could probably go 50 or 60% of people are starting over. Because this, we the things that we were promised as millennials.

SPEAKER_04 18:15

Don't even get me flexible.

SPEAKER_01 18:17

The way that they lie to us, talking about if you do this and you do that, and you know, you can do this, and you dip we and I know we've talked about it in past episodes, but it's just all been one fucking lie. All of us really should have gone to fucking trade school. We should have done whatever we fuck we needed to do, right?

SPEAKER_04 18:34

And then I would have gone to the military for at least three years, then went to trade school, then got my VA, then I would have gone to college for free through the military.

SPEAKER_01 18:45

And you know, all of this, you know, it especially for like when I graduated, right? I graduated in I'm telling my agent, I graduated in 2009 from high school. Damn, no. I knew you were gonna do that. I knew you were gonna do that. But I graduated from high school in 2009 in the beginning of the worst recession of all time.

SPEAKER_04 19:09

Listen, I remember that.

SPEAKER_01 19:11

When I tell you, motherfucking people were dropping like flies companies, the scholarships that I was supposed to get all got taken away because all of those companies went bankrupt.

SPEAKER_04 19:19

Remember, every damn near one in two houses was in foreclosure.

SPEAKER_01 19:24

Do you remember they were literally saying that if this bank fails, then the U.S. will be in a fucking depression? Like, literally, Wells Fargo had to buy a Wacovia. That used to be a bank here in the South. Yeah, yeah. Bank of America had to buy Merrill Lynch. Like these, these were these were trillion-dollar corporations that were talking about they don't have enough money and then lied to us, talking about what we don't save the banks, if we don't save GM, if we don't save these. Looking back, bitch, we should have just let them all the bitches fast.

SPEAKER_04 19:59

But it's just that looking at our banking system and the money flow, you just realize all this shit is just one big posse scheme for real. It is. And it's all based off of slavery.

SPEAKER_01 20:09

Yeah. Because, bitch, why are we saving these banks and they ain't even paid us reparations? Like, what the fuck is we doing? We sitting here black people, like, oh, the government got enough money to save these corporations that used us our labor.

SPEAKER_04 20:21

Nigga, a business law.

SPEAKER_01 20:23

Couldn't don't don't even give us a fucking business loan, but had us as fucking property. Bitch, just spit in our face every fucking time.

SPEAKER_04 20:32

Talk tour.

SPEAKER_01 20:37

Oh, Lord, Jesus, I'm done. But listen, let's let's get into these fucking topics because I know, friend.

SPEAKER_04 20:44

We just we gotta get the hard part. We we, you know, we lightened it up, but you know, we're gonna like topics, but then we were talking about sports for a little bit. And you know, it's gonna be very brief because uh I listen. Extremely brief. I'm talking about blinking of the eye before.

SPEAKER_01 21:04

Blink in the fucking five minutes.

SPEAKER_04 21:06

Blink shit. Like, the fuck is going on here? Okay, man. But um then we're gonna get into a more serious topic, so uh just we will give a trigger warning before we start talking about what we're gonna talk about. And if you're black, you know what we're gonna address.

SPEAKER_01 21:23

So yeah, I don't even think we have to give a trigger warning because these niggas know. They know what the fuck is going on. And if you don't know, then uh I don't know where you've been. I don't know if you've been around black people, but nigga, wake up. Shit is happening. So, starting with the first topic, man. So LeBron is no longer with the LA Lakers. Um, so this is y'all, according to Yahoo! Sports, Bill Simmons says LeBron James to Cavs is done. The Cleveland Cavaliers are one of the handful of teams trying to convince LeBron James to sign with them in free agency via voice note messages. That may or may not actually get to LeBron himself. That's what he has agents. That's why he has assistants. So I I I I listen, listen, listen, listen, listen. Um, what the fuck? Why did this just there we go. Simmons mentions on the most recent episode of the Bill Simmons podcast that the Golden State Warriors were just used as leverage in the whole LeBron thing, presumably to get a max extension for Anthony Davis and to get Drake Draymond Green paid. Listen, all of this talk about LeBron James not being with the LA Lakers no more, going to the Cleveland Cavaliers and all of this. Listen, this is what I think. I think this is gonna be LeBron's last year. Um, if you really want to, my honest opinion, niggas, I think LeBron should retire.

SPEAKER_04 22:52

I thought he was gonna retire like two years ago.

SPEAKER_01 22:54

I thought he was gonna retire once his son made the fucking team.

SPEAKER_04 22:57

They was gonna play a season and then and then he was gonna be done.

SPEAKER_01 23:00

But see, my thing is this, people don't understand. Like, LeBron is what?

SPEAKER_04 23:04

How old is LeBron James? 40. Maybe 40. Oh no, how old is LeBron James? LeBron James, he's 41.

SPEAKER_01 23:13

LeBron James is 41.

SPEAKER_04 23:15

He's out of line.

SPEAKER_01 23:16

And man, that man, that man is, you know, I'm still fucking pissed off with you about that little shit that you said with all them fucking white boys at that fucking uh that uh when y'all were golfing. Ciao. I'm still pissed off your ass. I'm still pissed. I'm still pissed because again, and we'll get into that later on in the pop, because that that's that's one of the fucking points that we have to talk about. You sitting there talking about a black ass city with these white, these white boys. Fuck are we doing? You've lost the plot. Because guess what? You got money now. That's the fucking problem. Again.

SPEAKER_04 23:53

That money. Oof, girl.

SPEAKER_01 23:55

Like you're still a nigga. You are still a nigga to them. Even though you have more money, you might have more money than all of them. You still a nigga to them. That's how they see you.

SPEAKER_03 24:05

Nigga.

SPEAKER_01 24:10

But at the end of the day, it's like LeBron, you are. I think he's a billionaire. Like he's close to it. LeBron is close to being a billionaire. You know how I feel about black billionaires.

unknown 24:21

Oh, I know.

SPEAKER_01 24:22

My thing is this. LeBron, just retire. Your whole family, like you're, you're, you're, you're, you're done. Like, you've done everything. Like, we know who you are. You are a household name, my nigga. Like, people, hundreds of thousands of people, millions, millions of people love you.

SPEAKER_04 24:42

That's where I'm at. Like, you know, I really don't give a damn about this story.

SPEAKER_01 24:46

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 24:46

But it's just like, I don't. Uh-huh. Tomato, tomato. But it's like, um, you have nothing else left to prove, and maybe you still do it for the joy of the game, but it's just like, okay.

SPEAKER_01 25:01

Because let's be honest, you can do whatever the fuck you want, LeBron. But what I'm saying is, I'm looking at like you're 41, you going up and down the court, you know. I just your body. Your body. You know? You're putting more.

SPEAKER_04 25:16

You can go buy another one. That's what they do. That's what the rich and elite do. You ain't got me. You've got the whole body. Like, that's what they do. Let's not act like we don't know what adjournal chrome and let me hush. If I did if I end up dead, I'm not suicidal. I didn't kill myself. Okay. Thank you. And Lord, I got on the black and white outfit. Well, she, you know, she's leaning to the Illuminati. She talked about this on this day.

SPEAKER_01 25:42

Girl, let me tell you something. Candace Owens and all them motherfuckers be sitting there talking about like.

SPEAKER_04 25:47

Why are you having to say Candace Owens? I'm gonna treat you like Simone did Don Lemon. Now, Don, it's Black History Month. Why are you having to bring up fucking Candace? Please.

SPEAKER_01 25:55

What I'm saying is the way that she be talking, talking about the CIA, FBI, and all of this bullshit, talking about uh all of that. And you know what I'm talking about, because y'all don't y'all niggas done seen the clips.

SPEAKER_04 26:06

So, um Oh my God. I forgot to mention it to you in Ash's Corner. Why is Stacey Dash trying to have a black girl rebrand? She got braids with beads and stuff in a lollipop, and I just felt so uncomfortable.

SPEAKER_01 26:22

Because she's not making no more money on that side. They cut her off. There's a limit to how much they're gonna give you. So when she decided to go on that side, yeah, they was paying her.

SPEAKER_00 26:31

But she's not making no money now.

SPEAKER_01 26:33

Because they don't, they don't they have no use for her. So guess what? Guess what she has to do? Rebrand, go back to her roots.

SPEAKER_04 26:42

Baby, she can stay just like, oh, I can know TMX side. I don't know you with this anymore. Leave me be.

SPEAKER_01 26:49

Just look at Amber Rose. She'll be back too. Amber Rose will be back.

SPEAKER_04 26:53

She'll be, she'll, she'll be right back with another black dick in her mouth.

SPEAKER_01 26:58

Yep. Well, LeBron, you do whatever the fuck you want to do, nigga. You it King James, you do whatever you want. You, you know, you got a beautiful family.

SPEAKER_04 27:07

SPEAKER_01 28:24

So she knows who she is. She knows exactly who she is.

SPEAKER_04 28:27

And baby, she knows where that check is coming to. Savannah James reminds me a lot of Juanina Jordan because it's been, you know, allegedly there's been like scandals of LeBron cheating on her with black uh white women or whatever. Uh-huh. Bring me that motherfucker check. Take care of children, which I know he's wanting to do, but still, like, Savannah, that's who I care about. So I would love to see her pop out. Like, I think she does have like some business bitches, but like I need to see Savannah James and Nima Marcus. I need to see her in the luxury purse at something. Because I just think she is too much of a star to me to just, but I mean, you know, maybe that's how she wants to do, which she doesn't owe us shit. But like if she ever decided she did, I would love to support her or see her on the runway or something.

SPEAKER_01 29:15

Yeah. I feel like she's gonna do something. I think she has that podcast with her friend, uh, one of her best friends. And then I think she's gonna.

SPEAKER_04 29:22

So I liked it. It was pretty. I liked it.

SPEAKER_01 29:24

Excuse me. I think she's gonna um, she's gonna kind of like expand um sooner or later. We'll probably see it next year. She's coming out with like a mini, like, you know, she's gonna start small. Because that's how you, that's how you gotta do it now. You gotta start small, you gotta start something like with a kind of like a little small makeup line and then expand, you know? Because these people, they be trying to come out with uh, you know, clothes and fragrance and all that. Baby, it's too much. What are we trying to do? What is the brand encompass? That's what we need to figure out.

SPEAKER_04 29:54

One person that came to mind and I'm just like, let me shut up.

SPEAKER_01 29:56

Oh, you're not gonna say it? Okay. Okay, well, moving on. Um, you can tell me after the right.

SPEAKER_04 30:07

First name and last name starts with a K. And you know. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 30:13

Yeah, you know. You you know people are gonna catch on to that. But uh moving on. Um John Morant.

SPEAKER_04 30:24

That's sexy. Oh, Jesus.

SPEAKER_01 30:26

I knew you were gonna say some shit like that.

SPEAKER_04 30:31

Goddamn, actually. He's fine.

SPEAKER_01 30:35

Um, so first of all, Nike and Vill's John Morant's fourth signature uh sneaker. And the reason why I'm talking. It is a nice sneaker. I'm looking at it right now. I think it's nice. Now, how much does a motherfucker cost? Because your boy ain't paying $100. Uh, I don't pay over $150 for shoes. That's just me. That is for like, if it's a hundred, I'll say this. I'm not paying over $175 for sneakers. And I know these motherfuckers right here, baby, I know they're gonna be at least. Let me let me see how much they cost.

SPEAKER_04 31:11

Let me I feel like I've seen one of his sneakers in the store or online for like $220, $230.

SPEAKER_01 31:17

Exactly. Yeah, I think they start at like $200 something.

SPEAKER_04 31:19

But um isn't bad, but yeah, it's a little steep for a shoe. If you don't normally see much on shoes.

SPEAKER_01 31:25

Now, if sneakers are your thing, then hey, yeah, if sneakers are your thing and you do that and you resell them and everything like that, that's all you, my nigga. But I'm just saying for TJ, I'm not now. If you want to, Nike, if y'all want to help a nigga out, send me some shoes and stuff like that, I'm perfectly fine with that. But I'm not paying over $200 for a shoe.

SPEAKER_04 31:47

That's just blowing that so down quick and fast and in a hurry. I saw what you did there.

SPEAKER_01 31:56

But no, the shoes look really good. Um the reason why we're talking about Nike and John Morant is because John Morant is no longer with the Memphis Grizzlies.

SPEAKER_04 32:06

Um being in trouble and doing stupid shit.

SPEAKER_01 32:10

He did. Um, your boy is now um in Oregon.

SPEAKER_03 32:17

He will be why stop.

SPEAKER_01 32:23

He is in Portland, he is in Portland, Oregon. Um, he will be playing with them now.

SPEAKER_04 32:28

Um What's the name of the team in Portland?

SPEAKER_01 32:31

Hold on. Damn it. It's not even saying all of these fucking see, this is the shit that I don't like.

SPEAKER_04 32:38

Like What's the name of the professional basketball team in Portland, Oregon? Okay, I knew that. Portland Trailblazers. Okay.

SPEAKER_01 32:45

Trailblazers. That's why it says Blazers right here. Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_04 32:50

Oh, maybe he'll put them on the map. I don't remember the last time their team was like, let me shut up because you know I'm not a sports blazer.

SPEAKER_01 32:56

Let's be real. Let's be real. I haven't heard, I haven't seen anything from the Portland Trailblazers in a long time. Let's be, you know, maybe, but you know, me, yeah, me and you don't follow sports like that.

SPEAKER_04 33:07

I follow players. Like, I love anything that Russell Westbrook touches. That's like my favorite basketball player. Because I love Russell Westbrook. At one point, I was a big OKC fan. Like when him played, love me to Russell Westbrook. Makes my heart warm.

SPEAKER_01 33:22

So back to Ja Morant. So, and it's right here. It says Blazers, Ja Morant trade reveals a plan. This is right in front of my fucking face, y'all. Uh, reveals a plan Damian uh Lillard won't love. So here's the thing. Ja Morant got moved from Memphis, got traded from Memphis Grizzlies to the Trailblazers because of, and there's been talk around this. I I it's nothing new, but Nike, um, John Morant is Nike's biggest like asset. Might as well just say it, biggest asset. Um, his shoes sell out every fucking time. Every fucking time. And I think Nike had a really big hand of moving him to the Trailblazers because, you know, they're trying to keep him, you know, out of trouble. You know, we know in the past John Moran has been in trouble here and trouble there. And I think him leaving Memphis and going to Oregon will be um, well, Portland will be really good for him. Uh, because I mean, I don't know what there to do in Portland. I've only been there one time, but you know, I've only seen Portland. You said what?

SPEAKER_04 34:34

I said I didn't know you've you've been to Portland.

SPEAKER_01 34:36

I've been to Portland, Oregon.

SPEAKER_04 34:38

Ooh, I I wanna go.

SPEAKER_01 34:40

It's a very um, when I say liberal city, um, uh it's liberal.

SPEAKER_04 34:47

I yeah, I've heard that. I know people. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 34:49

And that's why I got so quiet because I'm just like, it's liberal to the point where it's like, it's fucking exhausting. I remember I was in a fucking bakery and some girl was like, you know, sometimes you just gotta, you can't speak to people like that because it's just really condescending. Bitch, all she asks you was you want a fucking, like, do you want it hot or not? Like, bitch, like, what the fuck are we talking about? What is wrong with y'all motherfuckers around here? But no, it's a beautiful city. Um, I think John Morant will do um, I think he'll do really good in Portland. Um, so shout out to John Morant. Shout out to his new shoe that is being uh released. Um, and we hope you do good in Oregon, my nigga. Yeah, I do too.

SPEAKER_00 35:31

All right.

SPEAKER_01 35:33

Moving on. Um, all right, black people. We we have a serious discussion. We we we have to. Um this is this shit is knocking at our doors. At every nigga's doors right now. And we have to discuss this. So, um, if you have not seen or heard about um Nolan Xavier Wells, then I don't know where the fuck you've been. I don't know where you've been. Um I'm gonna sum this story up. Over 4th of July weekend, Nolan, Xavier Wells went on a boat with three other white boys. Nolan, Xavier Wells did not show up. You know who did show up? Those three white boys with his phone. Let me be very fucking clear. To every black parent, black person that is listening to this fucking podcast. We have to start discussing. And I don't know if you've already have or you've been doing it, but there is a bigger conversation that needs to be had. We do not live in a post-racial society. As much as y'all want to say, oh, he's fine or he's good, they're not. They're not. There are white people every day that want to see us hanging from a fucking tree. There are white people every fucking day that if a law was passed tomorrow that white people could start torturing black people or using us as fucking property, they would do it. They would do that shit in a heartbeat. We do not, and I repeat, we do not live in a post-racial society. What happened to Nolan Xavier Wells is not only a wake-up because this has been happening time and time and time and time again. Black boys and black girls going out with their white friends in groups when they're the only black person and something ends up happening. They go missing, they got lost, we couldn't find them. We have to understand that these white kids go home to their moms and their dads. Sometimes their grandmas and their granddaddies that are racist that could give two shits about black people. I'm gonna tell you, once I saw that photo, I already knew what the fuck time it was. I already knew. Because a nigga like me, being born in Nashville and raised in a suburb of Nashville where this city was predominantly white. I think at one point it was 79% white. You can't tell me shit about racism. You can't tell me shit about microaggressions, macroaggressions, because I know these people. Because I grew up with them. Those boys in that picture, Nolan, with Nolan, Xavier Wells. I went to school with boys like that that thought shit was funny. The only way to be funny was to throw racist jokes around. It comes a point in time where we have to look at our children and say, no, you're not going with them. And this is the reason why you have to be real with our black kids. You are not going with them. Because once they form these fucking groups, they come up with a fucking plan. And I don't give a fuck about y'all talking about, well, everybody, all of them are not say that shit.

SPEAKER_04 39:17

250 and 100%.

SPEAKER_01 39:18

It's not all of them, but it's all every single time, it's white people.

SPEAKER_04 39:23

And you know, this is 250 years and more plus of pattern recognition at this point. It's not every white person, but it's always a white person in this scenario. It is.

SPEAKER_01 39:36

And it's and it's always a group. It's always a group of them. Living in the suburbs outside of Nashville, there were plenty of situations where I have been in where I said, Oh bitch, I gotta get the fuck up out of here. Because when they start drinking, when they start doing drugs, he's malicious quick.

SPEAKER_04 40:01

Shit starts.

SPEAKER_01 40:02

They don't have a sense of awareness at all.

SPEAKER_04 40:04

They don't have a sense of sense of awareness, or there's a loss of empathy for somebody that doesn't look like them.

SPEAKER_01 40:10

Exactly.

SPEAKER_04 40:10

Everything is at your expense. You become the fucking joke.

SPEAKER_01 40:13

Yeah. You become the target.

SPEAKER_04 40:15

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 40:16

And my thing is this. How the fuck? Because I already knew of some bullshit. I already knew it was bullshit with me just looking at that picture, not knowing nothing. I looked at that picture. Just look at it, because we know.

SPEAKER_04 40:29

I was when I saw the because I heard it, and then when I saw the picture, I was a I was devastated because as sad as I was, and as much as I didn't want to be negative, I knew what the outcome was.

SPEAKER_01 40:40

How does his so-called friends have his phone?

SPEAKER_04 40:46

And what child today leaves their phone? My biggest thing was what did you just say? Despite race or gender, what child leaves their phone? They document everything. And I'm sorry. And what TJ didn't mention, they came back with that baby's phone. Delivered it, delivered the phone to his mother. I wouldn't have been the only parent mourning.

SPEAKER_01 41:16

You mean to tell me.

SPEAKER_04 41:18

There was not there was there couldn't have been nothing he could have told me. Because where the fuck is my child?

SPEAKER_01 41:24

You came back with my son's phone, handed it to me.

SPEAKER_04 41:29

No way.

SPEAKER_01 41:30

Are we all going to hell? We are we all going to hell.

SPEAKER_04 41:38

And you know, I'm and as you and as the audience members, as you guys know, or maybe not know, you know, maybe this is the first time you're coming across TJ now and I can only speak for myself, but I can speak for TJ in this manner. Both of us are not parents. However, both of us, you know, we're aunties and uncles, nieces and nephews. Hell, I have godkids. Being in that mode, just thinking from, you know, I care so deeply about them. I don't want nothing to happen to them. I pray for my babies all the time. I have friends with children. So there were even in that scenario, I would have been frantic. What what do you what do you mean? What do you mean? Wh where's my child? Couldn't nobody have came through that fucking door and give me my nephew's cell phone and not having a Kai right fucking there. Couldn't nobody have done that to me. And I think the thing that gets me the most, I've I've been to a white college. I've grown up military, so I've been in so many different social settings and and and and in the schools with different demographics, but there's been a plenty of times where it's been a group of us as black women or black people, and we've had one white person, maybe one Asian person, or there's been one person never have their parents, I'm fucking sure, ever had to worry about will their white child come home? That doesn't fucking happen with us because we look out for everybody. Bitch, if you come with me, you're leaving with me. The one or two time because I, you know, I I was blessed enough throughout my experience at a PWR to have a group of black women that we looked out for each other, especially in a party settings. Nobody ever ended up roofied or raped, at least not to my fucking knowledge, because I'm keeping the eye.

unknown 43:38

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 43:39

Okay, you dancing with this dude over here, fine, but I can see you. We're not leaving to go into no private rooms. You're not getting, you know, nobody's handing you a fucking drink. No, we're not doing that. Because if you leave with me, you come with me. Now, what you do after the fact, after I've dropped you off at home or after we've all walked fucking home.

SPEAKER_01 43:57

After I see you go into that house.

SPEAKER_04 43:59

And if I See somebody following you, bitch, it's gonna be a problem. But see, I think this is why I feel like I've I've talked about before if racism, if excuse me, it let of myself because I'm getting excited about what I'm saying, not in a good way, compassionate.

SPEAKER_00 44:18

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 44:18

If we can sit up here and say that certain traits are epigenetic, then racism is epigenetic. The lack of empathy is epigenetic. I'm sorry. Uh just throughout my life, white people don't have the empathy that we have to a certain extent. Because even as children with your cousins and with your siblings, hey, all y'all look out for each other, uh everybody coming back. Cause you knew what ass will be gonna get time you hit that door if something happened to your cousin or your sibling. You knew what fucking time it was. You knew, hey, let me get this nigga the look.

SPEAKER_03 44:58

It's time to go. It's time to go.

SPEAKER_04 45:00

Even like, and I remember in certain social settings, because I've talked about this too, at least with especially with Diamond, going to my white college, a lot, most of the black men at our college didn't date black girls, but it was a it was a similar, it was an undertone that, all right, now if shit get really crazy, we all fucking out. Even with the black people that didn't even fuck with each other, which it was as shitty as it was, the fact that it was such a handful of us, a lot of us didn't fuck with each other, whether it was due to, you know, you had black people there that really, I was one of those black people. Most of my friends, even in the PW, I was black. Because I just cultivated that space. I felt safe in that space. There was some black people there, the only half of white people. But if shit got really crazy and out of hand, all right now, let's go. You you already fucking know what it is. You know, there was an instance where it was a group of black students I knew. Why you have the the the campus security carding them? Why? They go here. Let me go. I'm not pulling out my fucking student. I need it was a sixty drunk white students that went across the street, go fucking carve them.

SPEAKER_03 46:12

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 46:13

But it's it's it's a group it's it's a groupness that I think every race of people have to an extent, except white people. But except they they have it with each other, but not with anybody else. Because I know people that I went to high school we mm-hmm. No, not high schooling so much, but college definitely. I thought about three or four black men in my life. That could have been another wells. You know, my brother, luckily he's not, but you know, not luckily, but like he's never been, majority of his friends always been black. He's very sure as a black man that he is, but I think about I couldn't imagine that happening to my like I would have had to get that shit back in blood. I'm sorry. I I couldn't imagine. Uh-huh. And then to hear that one of the white boys, his mama's a judge. The other one's mom's a lawyer. The other one's mom working for a police department. Who's the fucking say this shit wasn't a ritual? No matter what the fuck. And when I hear about black people dying in water and drought, we were brought over here forcibly over fucking water. That was ritualistic. So whatever y'all did to Nolan, y'all had that planned.

SPEAKER_01 47:29

They had already had that set up. This is what I believe. They had already had that set up when they got on that boat.

SPEAKER_04 47:34

Yeah, they knew what was gonna happen because people saw them fight. And then, you know, it's telling when you have white girls that know everybody and they say, hey, those white boys were trouble. Or, hey, you know, Nolan left off with some girl. Who was the fucking was there ever even a girl that Nolan left with?

SPEAKER_01 47:50

That was a lie. I I really in my heart. I in my heart, I believe that was a fucking lie. That was a story that one of those parents came up with, or one of them, I just believed that was a lie. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 48:05

So you're gonna let your friend go on the boat after alcohol has been involved, which none of y'all should have been fucking drinking because I don't think none of those kids were 21. So you're gonna let him get on a random boat where he doesn't know nobody? Get be fucking for real.

SPEAKER_01 48:19

But the thing about it is, they all lawyered up after the whole, the whole situation.

SPEAKER_04 48:24

And if you didn't do nothing, why do you need a lawyer?

SPEAKER_01 48:27

Why does your mom, as a judge, and you need to be, you need to be removed from being a judge, why are you making statements? You know nothing. How do you know so much? I think she's what, like the stepmom or something like that, or whatever. But why do you know why how do you know all of this? You're trying, they are trying to throw the media into five, six different ways. That's what they're trying to do. They are trying to create narratives. Create narratives of what happened. We know, as black people, what the fuck happened. Those three white boys, and it could have been more. It could have been more. Because attorney.

SPEAKER_04 49:09

Who's the owners and who was on the boat that he supposedly got on after he left Yon's boat? Who are you?

SPEAKER_01 49:15

Because why why why would I give you any of you my phone? And and I say, oh, I'm gonna stay here.

SPEAKER_04 49:20

What the fuck? And I'm not even trying to sound vulgar, but like it of any most people take their phone with them and go, shit.

unknown 49:27

Correct.

SPEAKER_04 49:29

You mean to tell me this teenager took his phone, left his phone? Nah. It's it's not clicking. It's not adding up. It's something unclean in the buttermilk.

SPEAKER_01 49:43

So speaking about Nolan Xavier Wells, there's two other cases that really um got to me. Uh, Trey Reed, September 2025, the 21-year-old black Delta State University student was found hanging from a tree. I remember that. Yeah, I know we talked about that. Um, found hanging from a tree near the campus, pick uh pickleball courts, pickleball courts in Cleveland, Mississippi. While the Bolivar County Coroner's offices found no signs of assault and police rule the death of suicide, Reed's family retained civil rights attorney Ben Crump to demand a more transparent investigation. Investigative materials were also turned over to the FBI and the U.S. attorney's office for review. Kyle Basings. In February 2026, 21-year-old Kyle Basings was found hanging from a tree in Cobb County, Georgia. Local authorities ruled the death as suicide.

SPEAKER_04 50:38

No black person, no black American person is gonna hang their self by suicide.

SPEAKER_01 50:42

Because how can you be safe when the state is working with the people that hung you?

SPEAKER_04 50:48

Ancestrally, that makes no fucking sense.

SPEAKER_01 50:51

That doesn't make any fucking sense that a black person in 2025, 2024, in any era in the last 10, 15, 20 motherfucking years.

SPEAKER_04 50:59

Hundred years.

SPEAKER_01 51:00

Hundred years, would even attempt. We don't hang ourselves.

SPEAKER_04 51:05

No.

SPEAKER_01 51:05

And they know that. They know that. When you have law enforcement talking about, well, it's been ruled a suicide, bitch, you don't even have all the evidence. What are you talking about? How would a person get on a fucking tree and hang them? Like, how like think about it. To hang yourself on a fucking tree, that takes more than one person.

SPEAKER_04 51:24

With nothing on you to assist, like common sense would tell you that.

SPEAKER_01 51:29

Common sense would tell you that. So how are you even safe when the authorities are working with the motherfuckers or the authorities are a part of it? So here's the thing Xavier, Nolan Xavier Wells' body has been transported to DC for an independent. The fact that the family had to transport his body out of the state of Mississippi, because again, we don't trust the state of Mississippi.

SPEAKER_04 51:59

To be honest, I don't trust no goddamn state. I don't. No.

SPEAKER_01 52:05

When it comes to black people and in the corners and uh and all of this, y'all let that black man die.

SPEAKER_04 52:13

Y'all had that man, y'all were tasing him. Then he got bit by a fucking dog and he died because you didn't give him any medical attention. And now y'all talking about he had contusions and severe severe brain injury.

SPEAKER_01 52:25

Let them know who you're talking about, boo.

SPEAKER_04 52:27

Clarksville just been in this the news with so much fuck fucktivity. It don't make no sense. Um, I'm gonna I'm gonna get the story.

SPEAKER_01 52:36

It gets to a motherfucking point where we just gotta start. I mean, goddamn, we just gotta start rolling, you know, we gotta walk, start walking with our guns.

SPEAKER_04 52:45

And the crazy part, uh and the crazy part is I watched this, I was in traffic when this was happening in real time, coming home from work. Um, all right, this happened to Darius Chapel. Court documents reveal more details of Clarksville arrests, a man bitten by police, K9, who later died while in custody. Here's what we know. We are committed to conducting a complete and thorough review of our officer's actions. Bullshit. Clarksville's police chief said in response to the arrest and later death of Darius Chapel. New courtroom documents provide more details about the arrest of Darius Chapel, the Montgomery County man who died in custody days after being bitten by Clarksville police canine. According to the arrest report, deputy saw a white Chevrolet Tahoe parked at a Burger King of Fort Kimball Boulevard, right up the street from the house, by the way, at 11:30 a.m. on June 29th. Investigators said the registered owner, Darius Chapel, had an active felony warrant for violation of parole. It's unclear what the actual violation of parole was, as neither the arrest document nor law enforcement have revealed that piece of information. Chapel was seen leaving the Burger King and began running when deputies tried to stop him, according to the arrest report. Deputies used their emergency license sirens, but said Chapel kept running in the oncoming traffic on Fort Campbell Boulevard, which had traffic stopped up for at least a good 30 to 45 minutes. Deputies said they used a taser on Campbell, on Chapel, excuse me, multiple times, but he did not stop fighting back. The arrest report said Chapel grabbed a deputy's vest near the throat and pulled the deputy. At that point, according to the reports, Clarksville police deployed a canine, which bit Chapel and ended the altercation. Video previously obtained by WSMV4 showed the Clarksville police canine biting Chapel while officers tried to handcuff him. The dog was seen on the video biting him for nearly 60 seconds before being pulled off by the officer. Chapel was booked into the Montgomery County jail on multiple charges, including assault on law enforcement and resisting arrest. The Montgomery County Sheriff Office also has also released more information regarding what they say happened during Chapel's arrest. Deputies found him at a fast food restaurant in the Ponzi. The deputies Chapel reportedly ran into oncoming Fort Campbell Boulevard traffic. Deputies pursue him in the pond making contact with him, Chapel again resisting arrest. So y'all kind of got a feel for what's going on. They're not gonna do it. Clarksville police is CPD is a joke. They're not gonna, nobody's gonna get in trouble. Nope, there's not gonna be no um retribution for this. That black man is dead. And you saw where that dog was beating him and the poll and suppose and allegedly they gave that man no medical attention and when he died, severe hair traumas, contusions to the head.

SPEAKER_01 55:36

We as black people, and I just thought about this. We as black people got on here on social media, right? And said we're done. Black people are taking a rest, we're not doing anything. And people said, Oh, we're gonna make y'all do something. We're gonna make y'all, we gonna make y'all talk. We gonna make y'all come out. Because think about it. Right after the election, right after the election, black people, we were done. We were resting. Next thing you know, and it's been happening, but next thing you know, we've been hearing about multiple black people being hung off trees, multiple black women going down to Miami for Juneteenth holiday.

SPEAKER_03 56:28

Disappearing.

SPEAKER_01 56:30

Disappearing. I think what is actually gonna happen, because this administration they they do not care about us. We have already seen what they do. They always label it as a suicide, they label as, oh well, accidental. They do not care about black people. They have never cared about black people's well-being. And at the end of the day, we have to protect our own selves. I think what is gonna happen is that black people, at the end of the day, we're gonna have to start protecting ourselves. And with that comes protection, it is what it is. That boy shouldn't have been with those white boys. I'm sorry. I I just it just as soon as I seen that fucking picture, I said, They kill that black boy. Parents, you have you you just because I have to have this conversation with my little brother. And even though my niece and nephew are mixed, they don't look mixed at all. They about the same color as me. It don't matter if you're mixed, you black is black. I'm sad, but I'm also angry. I'm pissed the fuck off. And that's how all of us should be right now. That's how all black people should be feeling right now. That you keep on playing with our motherfucking children, that you keep on playing with us. I think black people, we're too kind, we're too accepting. And I hope when that day comes, when that motherfucking day comes, when that shit is over, bitch, y'all really gonna be calling us savages. I'm telling you. That that couldn't have been me. If someone, if these little boys came up to my fucking house talking about, here's your nephew's phone, we couldn't find him, it would be another phone call I made to y'all motherfucking parents. Because what the fuck you mean, here's my nephew's phone? Bitch, where's my nephew? Oh, we don't know, we can't find him.

SPEAKER_03 58:26

Crazy. Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_01 58:29

Okay, come inside real quick. Because it it all of this, Ashley, it doesn't make sense.

SPEAKER_04 58:43

It doesn't.

SPEAKER_01 58:44

Any normal person with common sense, with empathy, will say, Oh, yeah, they killed that boy. And they could have been planning this for weeks, honestly. They could have been planning this for weeks. Because you know, when when when white boys get together in big groups, they get they get jealous, you know. They get jealous, they get, you know, they get um, they get a little bit um flustered. How did this nigga get to this level? You know what I'm saying? It's always, I just, and I, and I feel it. Yeah. He's not supposed to be here. He's not supposed to have this. I'm telling you, black parents, be very careful and be aware of what the fuck is going on. I just, I have some, I have so much to say, but I'm gonna I'm gonna keep it in because I I I need, I'm following the story. I'm following, I'm following several of these stories. It just doesn't make, it doesn't make any type of sense at all. It doesn't make.

So I talked about this um on my TikTok page. If you um if you do not know, Ash Intellect. Um, there's a black-owned hair store called King Beauty Supply. It's off of Tiny Town, black-owned hair store. There's another hair store that is in Clarksville now called the Hair Palace. They said it was black-owned and it is not. It is an Arabic-owned business. Me and my mother walked in for ourselves, walked in. Whoever is touching the money, whoever's behind the register, that's who owns the fucking store. It was six Arabic men. What does an Arabic man need to be in the uh black American hair store for? I don't fucking know. So I asked an individual that worked there, is this store black-owned? That individual told me no, and that they've been told to lie to get niggas in there, because that's who shop at beauty supply stores. So Hair Palace is not black-owned. King Beauty Supply, Tiny Town is, and people, I just wanna I want to offer a piece of I just want to play devil's advocate. Oh, you know, first of all, the owner, and I cannot think of her name, she's lovely. Super clean store, fair amount of product, but she's she's just starting. She's a smaller store, she doesn't have as much inventory and product or hair. Fine. I hear people complaining about that. Oh, she's expensive, or oh, she doesn't have as much choice. Well, if every black person decided to shop with her and support her, maybe she can expand. Maybe she can get more products, maybe she can get a bigger space. But goddamn, y'all, she's just starting. Support her, please. Literally, I'ma send TJ the name. It's the King Beauty Supply Store. It's off a time time, but the address is not. I must we'll have the address in the description. But please chat with her. I spent $70. I brought my mama relaxer. I brought me some pholox, I brought a hair, a hairspray, and I brought a new edge brush. So, yes, I'm trying to put my money where my mouth is. Please support this black owned hair store. That was my black business 101.

SPEAKER_01 1:13:03

There are three artists that I want all the unreleased music from. One is Brandy. Two, Rihanna. And three, Beyoncé. When I tell you, I know those three women have so many unreleased songs that I know are fucking bangers.

SPEAKER_04 1:13:30

I can also imagine, bro.

Oh. When I tell you Brandy Norwood. We're talking about Brandy Norwood that had Michael Jackson saying back up. Backup on one of her songs. Like, the Brandy Rayanna Norwood. Like, stop playing. Like, people be trying to play with Brandy. Bitch, if I were, bitch, Michael Jackson sung Backup for me and I returned the favor. And I think it's vice versa. I think she sung back up for him first. I don't know which order it went, but baby, I worked with fucking Michael Jackson.

SPEAKER_04 1:14:05

When I tell you that shit will be on my resume, it would be on my wedding announcement. Like you really couldn't. Because bitch.

SPEAKER_01 1:14:14

SPEAKER_04 1:14:45

Rihanna.

SPEAKER_01 1:14:47

Rihanna, I don't care. If you release your unreleased music, Rihanna, I don't care about this album. I don't care about another album. I will be, I will be set.

SPEAKER_04 1:14:56

Rihanna, listen to me. I was a part of the Navy before I was a part of the house. I loved you.

SPEAKER_00 1:15:03

Same.

SPEAKER_04 1:15:04

Since I've seen you do Ponder Replay with them two pigtails. Okay? You're my Python sister, Zal. I see what you see in ASAP. But before you start.

SPEAKER_01 1:15:17

Shout out to the Libras.

SPEAKER_04 1:15:20

Leave that nigga in his thoughts and come back to the motherfucking studio. Please. I'm begging you.

SPEAKER_01 1:15:29

Listen, when I tell you, I would be sad for either one of them to just. And y'all need to go see that video of Jason Lee and Rihanna in the in the collar, caller, that was a Jason Lee.

SPEAKER_04 1:15:44

Jason Lee, the man that you are. I don't care what I say about you. You know good content and good television, and you know a good moment because I was thoroughly entertained.

SPEAKER_01 1:15:56

Let me be, let me tell you something. Jason Lee.

SPEAKER_04 1:16:01

Okay?

SPEAKER_01 1:16:02

There are two people that I have in the media, right? Black media, that have I am starting to just kind of like, I've always kind of like looked up to, but kind of like, you know what I'm saying? Carlos King was one. He was my, he was my first one, right? Because I I really wasn't too, you know, I wasn't too locked down on Jason Lee because of his, you know, when first when he came, you know, when he came to for us to know him. But Jason Lee, the mogul that you have become, there's a balance. There's a balance there. And I can honestly say, I can honestly say, good fucking job. You did it. You made like when I see posts from Carlos King, from Jason Lee and Don Lemon, the way that they have transformed, transformed their media, their channels, and all of this, it inspires me, especially as a black man. It inspires me.

SPEAKER_03 1:17:08

I think independent that sounded remedial.

SPEAKER_04 1:17:13

Independent black media is in such a great place right now. And we have so many great change makers that are out there carving their own lane without the censorship or without the backing of major media that I love.

SPEAKER_01 1:17:33

And that's why they're mad. That's why they're mad. They didn't, and I'm I'm I'm sorry, this is just on my mind right now. I gotta say it. They don't understand what they just did. This Nolan, Xavier, Wells, they didn't think this, they did not think this was gonna blow up the way that it blew up. The way that so many black personalities, black media, independent media stations are covering this story. You can try and try and try. They're talking about it. Because it's at our doorstep. It is at our doorstep, black people. And if we do not wake up, it's gonna be at one of our doorsteps. So we got to start taking initiative now. We gotta start or listen, I talk about organization and organizing all of this. Cool. Organiz organizing, we already know. That's on the checklist. We we we we we doing that. But protecting ourselves, hey, hey, hey. It's there, it's here. It's here. It's been it's been yeah.

SPEAKER_04 1:18:59

When John Martin happened, that was at my doorstep.

SPEAKER_01 1:19:02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 1:19:04

When fucking Sandra Blaine happened, that was at our doorstep. Definitely at my doorstep.

SPEAKER_03 1:19:10

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 1:19:10

When George Floyd happened, that was at the world's doorstep. It's been here. I don't know if this was if this, and again, I have my own theory as to what that bullshit was for the 250th celebration. I didn't even wear red by now. I don't fuck give a fuck about July the 4th. I don't. But it says a lot to me as somebody who's a spiritual person. You're blowing all those fucking fireworks right next to lightning strikes, and then you've had more and more black people come out and die on fucking water on that day. Okay. So all I'm gonna say is this. Y'all are really fucking pissed that this 100-year contract is coming to an end. Whatever the fuck them white folks saw in the CERN when them atoms going the opposite way in there, whatever y'all saw in the future, it scared the fuck out of y'all. Y'all turn that shit off. Y'all really turn the TV off on that one. So what I is what I said, shout out to Kendrick Lamar. Shout out to Kendrick Lamar. What I suggest is y'all better get y'all shit to fucking gather. Because it is time out. And the more and more people see y'all for who y'all are, the uglier y'all become. And I'm not even gonna say too much because I'm not gonna be one of the niggas that talk too much. What I will say is this there is a new dawn and a new day coming. And the 400-year contract is over.

SPEAKER_01 1:20:48

You know why I know that they're scared? It's when you have white creators and white parents getting on this fucking platform saying, Hey, black people, don't put your kids around white kids. Don't do it. I have never, I have never seen so many videos of white people getting on here and saying, everything that y'all are saying is true.

SPEAKER_04 1:21:15

Someone I know personally, I can reach out and call this woman right now if I wanted to. She's one of those white women. She's dated black men her whole life. She has two black sons.

SPEAKER_03 1:21:27

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 1:21:28

Black sons, but black sons. She says she's never left her black children alone with her white family without her being in her presence. And what the fuck does that say? So all I'm gonna say is this. Again, I'm I try not to be the nigga that talked too much in front of Miss Company, because again, even though we are a black podcast, it's always gonna be an intruder here. But what I and I and you know who the fuck I'm talking about, but the 400-year contract, the jig is up, all those spells and all that work that you put in, it's lost its power. Whiteness is no longer the need. Whiteness is no longer the goalpost. And if you really won't know what I'm talking about, you need that's that's exactly why they cancel Lovecraft Country. Woo! They're not ready for that. They're not ready for that conversation. So I'm gonna go.

SPEAKER_01 1:22:25

Wait a minute, wait a minute. Leave it alone.

SPEAKER_04 1:22:27

I ain't gonna say nothing more. But the jig is up.

SPEAKER_01 1:22:31

Yeah. Um, continuing with twice the five.

SPEAKER_04 1:22:39

Jesus help me.

SPEAKER_01 1:22:40

No, I and I'm glad you did take it there. I I'm glad you did because again, like the people that listen to our podcast um are primarily black, right? And if you're not, then we, you know, it is what it is, right? Um, but our audience is primarily the Thunder is uh is agreeing with you. Um, Black Queen. Come on, Nakasha. Um she was uh what she that and let me tell you something remarkable. Speaking of twice the fire, we've already talked about I already talked about the music, right? The three artists that I, you know what I'm saying? Talked about the the media, everything, with who inspires me, right? Those three Jason Lee, uh oh my god.

SPEAKER_04 1:23:27

Just King, Don Lemon.

SPEAKER_01 1:23:28

Hold on, sorry. I thought I saw a spider.

SPEAKER_04 1:23:32

I'm almost done with the first episode. But when I saw that video of that actress playing Akasha. Yeah. Her name. Are you about to find a video?

SPEAKER_04 1:24:06

I'm about to find her name.

SPEAKER_01 1:24:08

How about her name? Okay. I know she's a black British actress.

SPEAKER_04 1:24:12

Because I I'll play like clips off TikTok, but I'll try not to play media saying because I wanted to get a copyright strike.

SPEAKER_01 1:24:17

Yeah. Um, she did an amazing job. She she bodied that. She really fucking bodied that monologue. Like it was just wow. Um, but yes, The Vampire Less Thought. Um Ashley's looking up the name of the beautiful black actress um that plays her. Um, it's on AMC, AMC Plus. So you'll need a subscription. Unless you have DirecTV, I think you get to stream for free with DirecTV stream. I've been watching X-Men 97, season two, and when I tell you the last episode um had me so fucking emotional. If you know, you know, I'm not gonna try to spoil it because I know people are just getting into X-Men 97 on Disney Plus, but it is everything. I cannot wait until they fully.

Um, music-wise, I mean, I, you know what? Here's the thing. I have gone back and listened to Based on a True Story by Two Chains. When I tell you half of those songs. I mean, honestly, what made Two Chains a household name? That whole album. That whole album just, I mean, let me just go down the list, right? No lie featuring Drake. We know. However, y'all feel about Drake, we know.

SPEAKER_04 1:26:24

I love them strippers, featuring Nikki, Minaj. Uh I mean, literally had five singles that were going on at the same fucking time.

SPEAKER_01 1:27:49

Honestly, I want to say this um before we head out. Uh, first of all, our email is theblackparadigm77 at gmail.com. For the niggas that are sitting in the front, middle, and the back, our email is the blackparadigm77 at gmail.com. And before we head out, I just want to say to all black people, stay love yourselves. Love yourselves, protect yourselves at all cost. I think that's what we sometimes as black people we forget, like to protect not only our mental state, but to protect ourselves because there are a lot of demons out here that are trying to attack our blackness. And I want you niggas to know that me and Ashley love you. So love yourself and stay protected. And whatever that means, shit, listen, protect yourselves, okay? Um, Ashley, you got anything?
