smoo: I used think hating on sports culture was terms of resistance exercise. Now these little weights are probably not sufficient for doing much, especially for men. significantly correlated with testosterone. So when you do heavy resistance training of your large muscle groups, so like your lower extremities, your glutes, you're doing like Olympic deadlifts, squats, that that that we actually see improvements in testosterone. Now it's Yeah.

Big Darrell: Right.


smoo: top big ten team. They they be looking


Eric: Yeah.


smoo: a little undersized to me personally.


Eric: They've been looking like that for a minute.


Big Darrell: To me they look like Colorado for


smoo: So


Big Darrell: real. If you ask me now.


smoo: yeah. yeah. Then we had a we had we technically had another upset too. we talked we talked shit about that boy Bryce Underwood last week. And them niggas came out and beat Oklahoma this week. For real. That was a really good game. That was a really good game. And


Eric: Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.


Big Darrell: That was good too. That was a good upstate.


3 god: You had a couple you had a couple of pits though. Yeah, I was alone state too, man.


smoo: I'm glad I'm glad Texas they they won.


Big Darrell: Be Ohio State.


smoo: No, I yeah, I'm glad they won 'cause that would have been two zero for the for the big ten over the NCC. So I'm glad


Big Darrell: I'm so glad that Texas came back. But to me, honestly, it's like Texas wide receiver, they man, they ain't helped Manning out at all. Like the nigga threw some nice passes that should have been caught, like, and could have either went for six or three, you know? And so that shit really changed the game. I think they could have beat Ohio State by shit, at least a touchdown or two.


2: Easily bro. Even the st it may he they it make you like s


3 god: you must be it as reaction.


Eric: Listen.


2: it make you say against the stat like how is that an interception bro? Like well how d stat wise, you know I mean but shit you you right though.


3 god: the same way.


smoo: No, but I don't know if y'all know, man, but Cam Coleman, he one of the best receivers in the nation, bro. He like it's


3 god: Yeah.


smoo: it's it's Jeremiah Smith, Malachi Tony, and then Cam Coleman.


Eric: Hmm.


3 god: Hold hold up. Hey, hold up, hold up, hold up, hold up, hold


smoo: he that was nice.


3 god: up. Hold up, hold up. No. It's Jeremiah.


Big Darrell: That's crazy. It so didn't look like it.


3 god: I'm you you said the wrong order though, Smooth. It's Jeremia Smith. Jeremia Smith. Jeremia Smith. Then them two boys.


Wills On The Tank: you


3 god: Jeremia Smith by four. That boy is a doll, nigga.


2: Ha ha ha.


Big Darrell: hey, Jeremiah Jeremiah Jeremiah


3 god: Y'all niggas, hey, ain't nobody on that nigga level, dog.


Big Darrell: is definitely a dog that and he's still my number one go to, but Malachi was a dog too, though. That nigga, that nigga showed out this week too. They they they beat their


3 god: Hey bark, but


Big Darrell: opponent. But see, Jeremiah did it on a a a worthier opponent, right? Malachi


Eric: Yeah.


Big Darrell: did it on the team that ain't really, you know, ain't ranked ain't good at all. But he still showed out. So I had to see Miami. Which they schedule is weak


Wills On The Tank: you.


Big Darrell: this year. So we probably won't see it until the playoffs, So


Eric: Yeah, for sure. But see, going off last year, he did his thing in the playoffs. So that's why I'm like, man, I still got respect for Malachi and what he did last year in the playoffs. Like, he torched Ole Miss. God, man, like, jeez. I like Jeremiah, but he typical. He typical. I mean, he ordinary.


3 god: Hey what?


Eric: He ordinary. He is the... He typical, right, right.


Big Darrell: He he like a well when he when he say typical, I know exactly what he mean like a Jerry Rice, Randy Mouse, he he the typical wide receiver. That that's what you want as as your wide receiver, right? Like I I know what he's saying.


Eric: Yeah, he fit the frame of a receiving God, if you will. He fit


3 god: Okay.


Eric: the frame, so you don't expect that from all


Big Darrell: Right, right, right.


Eric: the class, what I'm saying. But maybe just shout out to Jeremiah, though.


3 god: He's the best wild house in the game.


Big Darrell: And so now now now Dean, when you say like college football, okay, so this is what I want to ask you, Dink. When it was twenty, it was twenty-three to three, third quarter. And then I even call my pops, my pops was was knocked out. I call and he was like, he was like, That game still on. Or like he was like, What? They done tied it up. Yeah.


3 god: You got my Texas? Yeah,


Big Darrell: in the


3 god: she


Big Darrell: third quarter, it was twenty-three to three. And so Ding that that's what I guess

smoo: That shit was amazing. That was amazing.


Big Darrell: I'm not saying it's rigged, I'm just giving perspective for the people who think it's rigged. This is the first top ten game of the year, right? They played last year. It was a close game last year. That was Manning's first time starting. And then it just would have looked horrible if he would have lost like the way they was losing, right?


smoo: It yeah, now that's true. That's true. That's true.


Big Darrell: And so now it it gives him a way to quote unquote them to give Eli Manning the damn Heisman, if you ask me. Or Arch Manning, yeah, Archie Manning.

3 god: Alright, number two, damn, I forgot the point of Damn, I was so trying to prove that one and then the second point, what the hell you just say earlier? Fuck it, Chief Skill scold. Go ahead.


Eric: Arj Manning. Hey, but you know what though?


Wills On The Tank: Hehehehehe


2: Are you


Eric: I think, I'm going to say this though. If you notice, if you notice that second half, Arj Manning, he just, he took the game over and he was just like, man, man, F this pocket. He just


Big Darrell: Right.


3 god: that's what I was gonna ask what.


Eric: started to take, he like, I think man, Arj is still in a space where he trying to get comfortable back. And I think as soon as he


Big Darrell: Right, right.


Eric: just realized yo, I can win games just by being a baller. Like what he did in that second half, man, it's over with. Right? He, cause he athletic.


smoo: Right. Right. Right. Right.


Big Darrell: Hey running, using his feet, using his size for sure.


Eric: He like one of the only man that can run the ball a little bit. You know, he's unique in that way.


Big Darrell: And he big too, he six four.


smoo: if you if you ask me if you


3 god: Well, his daddy was a runner. My granddaddy was a runner.


smoo: ask me, I think I feel like he gotta realize like bro, I'm I'm more Tim Tebow than anything. You know what I'm saying? Like he got he


Eric: There you go. There you go.


Big Darrell: Right. Now now that's a good one smooth.


smoo: got some he got some Tim Tebow in him. Now he he might throw the ball better than T bow, but as far as like how he could win, I feel like he need to he need to adapt that that Tim Tebow style of play personally.


Eric: And do you know what that's gonna do for college football, bro? If you got Arch Manning just taking on


smoo: Yeah.


Eric: the T-Bow mentality, running it, throwing it, just getting the job done. bro, man, college football


smoo: Just getting a job done, right? Yeah.


Eric: gonna go crazy because he already a Manning. They just want


smoo: Yeah.


Eric: him. And then


Big Darrell: Right.


Eric: he gonna be the unique Manning because he ain't nothing like them boys, you know?


smoo: Right, yeah, yeah.


Big Darrell: Nah


3 god: Hey, so smooth, that's what I was saying. That's why I was saying Smooth.


Big Darrell: nah nah that's a segue for you, smooth, that's a segue.


2: Okay.


smoo: Hello, look what's what's up, bro?


3 god: That's what I was saying. I say you were saying he was far from the Heisman conversation. I don't see how you were saying that though. How do you think he 'cause he got a signature win now in a comeback.


smoo: well, I think h his stats, he he got a signature win, but his he he not putting up like no godly numbers. He just getting the job done. So I feel like if you just getting the job done, like you gonna have niggas like the Dante Moores, shit, what's your boy's name from Sam Levitt


3 god: Then he just shit the band, he shit the band with Oregon.


smoo: from LSU Trinidad Shambleys? Like you got niggas who win it and they putting up godly numbers. Julian Sand, well he just beat Julian Sand.


3 god: Well it's the yeah, well.


smoo: But he gonna be there he gonna be there in the end. But I'm just talking about for right now though.


Big Darrell: Fancy.


smoo: Yeah. what I was finna say, you know we gotta touch on Alabama real quick. Real quick. You know, it's it's early, so you know what I'm saying? But


Eric: and


Big Darrell: Ooh, that was a tough game too though. But but they made it look good. They made it look good.


smoo: tough. tough.


3 god: I what you mean you told?


Big Darrell: It was tough in the first couple of quarters. It was tough. Yeah.


smoo: Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay. Well, I'm I'ma just


Eric: But see, I'll...


smoo: I'ma just touch on it briefly though. You know what I'm saying? I just feel like the the defense is elite, you know what I'm saying? the first level, the second level, and the third level. And I think the offense is catching up. It's really the same situation as last year. They still don't got no running game, but I think they trying to run the ball. And I think that's more important than anything. I think last year they just got away from the run. And Keelan


Big Darrell: Yeah.


smoo: Russell, hey man, straight dog. Straight dog.


Big Darrell: The the the the the but see but see


smoo: No for real.


Eric: Yeah.


Big Darrell: but see smooth that that plays today running game the quarterback. The quarterback is hey he gives them more running yards.


smoo: Yeah, that's true. That's true. That's true. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That giving them that give a lot more weapons at the running running game. For real, for real.


Eric: Smooth. Let me ask you this, bro. What do you rank Alabama, as far as the SEC? What do you rank Alabama? Watching them play.


Big Darrell: that's close.


smoo: that's tough. Shit. I think then I think I don't think they they made no they made no changes on where they where they at in the SEC, personally. Shit.


Eric: Wait a minute, I can see you there.


smoo: I think I think, Ole Miss, they got their quarterback back.


Big Darrell: We're not but vowels movies.


Eric: Mm-hmm.


smoo: You said number.


Big Darrell: In the SEC one, two, three, four, five.


smoo: Right, right, right. I gotcha, I gotcha, I gotcha. I'ma say five. I'ma say five.


Eric: Ooh.


smoo: Yeah, I'ma


Big Darrell: That's


smoo: say five. I think it may you gotta think about it. Georgia, Georgia, Ole Miss, LSU, Texas AM, Alabama five.


Big Darrell: That's a good that's a good SEC tough, bro. To me, Texas. Regular Texas.


Eric: Yeah. Hey, and let


Big Darrell: We got regular Texas.


Eric: me tell y'all


smoo: yeah, Texas. You guys still got Texas.


Eric: a sleeper in the SEC. Mississippi State. Just watch out for Mississippi State.


Big Darrell: There you go.


smoo: I've been seeing I've been seeing that, but but see Mississippi State, they they you now they play


Big Darrell: State.


smoo: Alabama early now. They play Alabama early. They play them like in two weeks.


Eric: Yeah, watch out for them.


smoo: So that'll that'll tell you everything you need to know.


Eric: Yeah.


smoo: But I mean realistically, if a nigga told me they felt like Alabama was six or seven right now, I can't really argue with you.


Eric: Damn.


Big Darrell: Cause it is SEC is too hard. to me, they they've been downgrading the SEC and talking down on no, that shit is too hard. you and you have to play the hardest players and the hardest teams before you even get


Eric: every week.


Big Darrell: to the playoffs. Like Oregon, they don't play no fucking body. Miami, they don't play no fucking body. Like they you know, they got easy pathways to the playoffs. But when you talking about like a team like Ole Miss, right? Who have to go night after night.


smoo: Speaking of Ole Miss Speaking of Ole Miss, let's let's let's let's get to that topic before


Big Darrell: Bango. Huh?


smoo: we move on to to to the rest of the the topics. Ole Miss versus LSU this week. That is absolutely crazy that that game is the third game of the season. That's crazy, bro.


3 god: That's great. Why do you think that's that's great?


Eric: Fins up, land


smoo: it it we we just came off the Ohio State in Texas game. Now you going


Eric: sharks. It's going down. It's going down, baby.


smoo: you got the number seven is number eighteen playing and Ole Miss


Eric: Let's go.


smoo: versus LSU with Lane Kiffin?


Eric: We want the smoke.


3 god: no, I I understand I know I know I'm saying I I know the the the story behind


Eric: We want this wrong.


3 god: everything, but I thought it was the way you were saying it like a that was like unheard of before.


smoo: It's just early. It's just early. this a game built this a game that be like in


Big Darrell: It's true.


smoo: late October, don't it?


Eric: Right,


3 god: Yeah, yeah.


Eric: LSU and Ole Miss usually play at the end of the season, just about.


Big Darrell: Yeah, yeah. But but but it's a good thing that it is early because whoever loses got a chance to make up their schedule, right?


Eric: Yeah.


Big Darrell: I I hate to say


2: Right.


Big Darrell: this, but I see L S U beating Ole Miss. I see that. And I love old miss, bro. I love Chambliss, I love I love our running back and so


2: Carlos Guru.


smoo: Nigga, you love every team. You love every team. You love everything. You gonna be on here next week talking about you love Alabama?


2: You just love the game, dog.


Big Darrell: Nah, but I like Ole Miss. I like Ole Miss. I like


Eric: way.


Big Darrell: I like Ole Miss. I like Ole Miss. I like the squad. I like what they stand for. But LSU looking tough, bro. LSU looking like number one in the in the fucking SEC to me.


3 god: Whole college football, right?


smoo: That's what I hear a lot of people saying. What y'all think, Bill Patu?


Eric: LSU


Big Darrell: Hell


Eric: guys,


Big Darrell: yeah.


Eric: LSU is a great football team, great coach. I will never talk bad about Lane. Lane did amazing things in Ole Miss, but the boy is fuck you this week. I don't give a damn.


3 god: It's fuck ya bitch.


Eric: I turned into Gilly on you. I don't give a damn. I don't care. Look.


Wills On The Tank: Right


Eric: It is over with for Lane this week. All that shooting hoops on the sideline boy tried this week That's all I'm gonna say tried this week. It's like he know about the Grove He know


3 god: I don't know. I don't know. I I I can see y'all I don't know.


smoo: He know about Oxford.


Eric: He know about the Grove so LSU all day. Hey, and this really


Big Darrell: But now now only it's gonna be tough, bro. It's


smoo: What you got to? What you got to?


Big Darrell: gonna be tough.


smoo: shit, what happened? Damn.


Eric: Yeah, think, that's why I love the way this schedule or this season is kind of playing out because we just had amazing games every week so far.


smoo: So I'ma say this. I'm going to say this one last point. Bro, Alabama got I think from the middle of October to November, the end of November, they got six top 10 opponents.


Big Darrell: Let me see their schedule, bro.


smoo: Them niggas play them niggas play LSU, Texas AM, Georgia, Tennessee,


Big Darrell: Georgia LSU


smoo: It's one more. That shit crazy, bro. Five games in a row. Five games in a row.


Big Darrell: And and the do they got old Miss if they got Mississippi State, that'd even make it hard. Mississippi State is a good one.


smoo: But that's that's early. But I'll I think Mississippi State gonna be a tough opponent because they got a running quarterback. but that's early. I'm talking about a little bit late in the season. But yeah, man. Your boy Dirk, man, he gotta quit


Big Darrell: Damn, you're right, you're right.


smoo: it. He gotta quit it on all these charges. How y'all boys feel about that, man?


3 god: 7220,


Eric: I re-


3 god: nigga. That's how we feel about it, nigga. My nigga free now. He about to drop another album. Go on, drop dirt.


Big Darrell: I I thought that nigga Brian Steele is like that nigga is like Johnny Cochran, boy. That nigga the new Johnny Cochran. I don't know if them nigga paying


Eric: That's crazy. That's crazy.


Big Darrell: off cases or what. That shit look impressive. hey, I he charging every bit of a million dollars per case, probably two million


Eric: But


Big Darrell: dollars.


Eric: I know the feds hate to see Brian still coming. He messing up their record single-handedly. I did


3 god: Or do that.


Eric: the, Hey, I think me and Willie was talking about this one day. Like the feds rate of conviction is like insanely high. You know what I


Wills On The Tank: 90 something percent


Eric: Like they don't take cases that they don't know that they can beat. So why Brian still coming in here and it's kryptonite for the feds. Shut up Brian Steele. Shut up Dirk man.


Big Darrell: Facts and then and then this what I think too. A lot of people saying okay, he got off for the murder hire, but then they talking about the Rico coming up. But shit, them beating the murder for hire really is a leeway for them to beat the Rico. Cause the Rico,


3 god: Be the the regular.


Big Darrell: I believe, is based on the fucking murders for hire. And if you can't prove that I did these murders for hire, your Rico case really kinda ain't gonna stand up. Cause that's part of the the whole Rico charge. They like, okay, we can get him on some charges on here and then we can bring that to this Rico. But you ain't getting no charges on this nigga. So they're gonna make it hard for the Rico to stand.


smoo: So what so what is all included in the Rico?


Big Darrell: Okay, so let you gonna look it up, Bill?


Eric: Yeah, I can, absolutely.


smoo: Hold on, nigga. You was just talking. You was just talking that


3 god: I'm making that


Big Darrell: I want Biff


3 god: bit.


Big Darrell: to look it up though. Biff is our look up. He is a he's our researcher.


Eric: I got you, I got you, I got you.


smoo: Nigga, you was just talking like you knew the case.


3 god: Then it does.


Big Darrell: But but no no no. I'm saying I I I imagine that's what that's gonna be about, right? I would imagine.


smoo: No nigga you imagined it but you was just talking like you know That's why I asked you cause I was like


3 god: Make it sound like you hey is that.


smoo: shit this nigga Darren know about the case.


Big Darrell: But but bro Okay, okay.


Eric: All right, look here, all right. All right, check me out, check me out. Here we go. It says,


3 god: I think it's


Eric: what is the government, what the government is expected to focus on? OTF as an alleged criminal enterprise.


smoo: Your camera came off there.


Big Darrell: Okay, we'll come back.


Eric: And then number two, a January 2022 Chicago killing, which that might be a weak point now since he


3 god: Yeah, do it.


Eric: done got off of that.


smoo: Th I'ma say this, Bill, I don't think that O T Up Enterprise that ain't gonna hold up neither.


Eric: Okay, okay. Number three, alleged 2019 Atlanta attempted murder. Okay, number four, murder in a racketeering. Dang. Number five, weapons allegations. And that was it. So it's, yeah. those are the top weapons. Yup.


Big Darrell: So, so so so say that was over sa say say that was over built one more time.


Eric: Yep, weapons allegations, a murder and racketeering,


Big Darrell: Mm-hmm.


Eric: an alleged 2019 Atlanta attempted murder. Number two, I mean, going backwards, this one is a January 2022 Chicago killing. And then number one, the main one, what they have is OTF as an alleged criminal enterprise.


Big Darrell: Shit.


smoo: What's your thoughts, T Willio?


Wills On The Tank: I really don't know what to think, honestly, man. it's a


3 god: Yeah.


Wills On The Tank: lot of people dying, man, in terms of, I don't really know what to think, honestly. Part of me is kind of glad


Eric: Ahem.


Wills On The Tank: to see his win, but then I always think about a lot of the things that a lot of people rap about these days in terms of, it's kind of cool to be celebrated, basically, to do evil. I'm kind of quiet on this one.


smoo: No, speak your mind, bro. Don't don't be quiet about it. Speak your mind.


Wills On The Tank: It's like, I kind feel like what we celebrate. mean, you know. the whole slide for Vaughn thing, man, we know these guys is in cool terms, they steppers, but when we break that down, what does that mean? It's like, we celebrate these people for, doing X, Y, Z and then, it's like, we almost like, and I don't know what Dirk did, but I don't know. So I don't want to say he did X, Y, Z, but it's like, man, somebody.


Big Darrell: Right.


Wills On The Tank: You know what When I see Kwon Do Rondo, like his reaction to that dude, to his little cousin, man, that's kind of devastating just for me to see that, you know? So I'm like, dang, man, like he was hurt. And I'm not saying he innocent because I see him troll, I see him troll, you know, about, with Vaughn. I watch a lot of Trap Lord Ross and stuff like that. So he documented a lot of these things, but I just kind of get mixed feelings about. what is, what are we celebrating? Are we celebrating that he got, and I don't know what he did, but are we celebrating that, you know, there was this whole Slap of Vaughn campaign and he, you know, he's allegedly actually did it and did actually beat the feds. But then at the same time, I don't want to see no black man go to jail either. But then at the other, then on the other flip side, like, man, you got a lot, you got these dudes saying they demons and you know, they, they, you know, supposedly really, they really out there doing what they, what they rap about. And it's like, man, America, not just America, but man, people in general, we love, and I'm the same way, we like to see our rappers do what they really rap about, but then like when it really hit home, like I just keep thinking about Quando Rondo and how he was just like, you know, his reaction to that whole situation, man, that was a devastating, for me anyway, that was devastating to see. So I'm like. I don't really know what to feel about that, And I'm not gonna sit here and say that I'm just a big fan of dirt, you know? I don't know, man. I don't know. I'm kinda conflicted. That's it.


3 god: I feel it. I I feel it in as I'm trying to y you know, hear you in and watch the cheese. we about to score again. I feel you but then I don't feel you at the same time. the reason I say that cause it was damn nigga le there you go. I I was watching a clip of a dude talking about don't consider me with some other blacks 'cause it was like, man, what are we celebrating?


smoo: I did that shit.


3 god: La dirt off, all this stuff. you know, like why are we celebrating When somebody does wrong or get off it like that. So I agree with you, but then then I disagree with you because you can't w people are happy. It's not like he got he it said not guilty. So you ha you said about somebody that is that was murdered or whatever, but you can be happy for somebody that one if he didn't do it, then why should he get charged? So that's


Wills On The Tank: Exactly. And that's why I said, I don't really know what to feel, you know, and that's why I keep saying, I don't


3 god: that but


Wills On The Tank: know what, I don't know what dirt did, you know, say it. that's


3 god: No, that


Wills On The Tank: why.


3 god: that's what I'm saying, but i it is insinuating that the way you feel though, how you talking, is insinuated that, man, we be knowing these dudes do it, 'cause they rap about it, but they getting off, so I don't know if how I should feel. So what I'm telling you is I I do feel you in a way, but you also insinuating that man, I think the nigga did it, the dude be rapping about it. So but I also s so but on the flip side, I'm like, well, you can't say you It kinda just you kinda just basically saying that well, I think he did do it because that's what you are saying. I can't be happy he got off and we know these niggas be talking about it in the music. And I'm telling you, I think that's why people have because somebody in the head, like me, I'm I'm a dirt fan. So it's not like necessarily I don't know if he did it or not, but I am happy that he off because if he really didn't do it, I'm glad it got off. See what I'm saying? Like if he I'm happy I'm


Wills On The Tank: Right, right on, right on, right on.


smoo: Well let's let's let's just be honest. Let's just be honest. Let's just


3 god: Ca then ca then there's two lives lost.


smoo: be honest though. Like, you know, we'll we ain't gonna say what 50 say that's all I'm gonna say. What 50 say on power? That's all I'm gonna say. So we can act like we can act like this shit ain't being done. But I'm not gonna say because I'm not I'm not I don't want to insinuate. I don't want to insinuate, but


Wills On The Tank: I know what you said. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,


3 god: One feet is a.


smoo: Let's let's let's just be honest.


3 god: But you are at any weight. You are at any way.


smoo: I'm not insinuating. I'm not insinuating


3 god: So what 50 say?


smoo: you said what?


3 god: So what did 50 say?


smoo: everybody know what Fiddy said well.


3 god: Why tell what bit is like I'm lost.


smoo: Man, if he if he say he


Wills On The Tank: I don't want to say it on camera, but yeah.


smoo: did that shit, he did that shit. That's what I'm saying. But to me, I don't look at it like how none of y'all look at it. I don't look at it like none of that. How I look at it at it as it is, bro. These white peoples don't they don't give a fuck. They don't give a fuck about


3 god: I I'm with you.


smoo: none of this shit. It is all a money fucking grab. So They don't give a fuck about Quando getting murdered. They don't give a fuck about little dirt. It's all a money grab. Brian Steele is just looking like this guy. If anything, that's the problem. Is that


Wills On The Tank: Yeah.


smoo: we out here celebrating these lawyers when they really are part of the corrupt system that let's that's let's let's keep making these niggas believe that we that we really care and let's keep letting them feed the system, keep making money off these niggas. That's what really the problem is, but don't nobody, don't nobody want to talk about that. We want to act like, or everybody wanna act like I think men too was talking about this shit, I believe, a couple days ago. Niggas wanna act like they care about what's going on in Chicago and between Quando Rondo and Lil Durk. Nigga, do you not nigga they just said AI was finna kill us in 10 years. They don't give a fuck about what's going on between no Kondo Rondo and Lil Durk. But they celebrate it at the end, Brian still gets celebrated. what's the guy? Drew Robinson, he gets celebrated


Wills On The Tank: Mm-hmm.


smoo: like, man, man, dog, it's all the same place. So that's my opinion. And when I say like, and I guess what I am celebrating is the fact that to me, I think it is dope that not not even necessarily dope, but I do think it's important. For everybody to see, bro, it's the same, it's the same play. And and it it might be the same play for Pooh Sice in a couple years too. Whenever his time is due. Boosie, Boosie got off,


Big Darrell: And again, that leads the way for conspiracy theory.


3 god: Well can I can I get an intake?


smoo: Boosie got off,


Wills On The Tank: Yep.


smoo: Dirk got up got off. what's your boy name? Thug got off. What's your nigga


Big Darrell: Yeah.


smoo: name? Y Fen Luci got off. Bro.


Big Darrell: Yep. But now


smoo: It's the same place.


Big Darrell: but now that that leads that leads conspiracy theorists room to say that it was all rigged, right? Cause those people that you say get off all of them have the same thing in common, right? The same lawyers, right? So someone could say is it possible that they're planning all this to make it public or to make it like What what people say, to make you focus on this rather than with some shit supposed to be going on, where you say AI, they say AI gonna kill us in ten years. And the niggas focusing on celebrating young little dirt, that nigga got innocent. Like, and I'm like with T Wheels, like, or I'm like with two smooth, like what you say with 50 say he did it, he did it. But it's like they ain't proven it, or they can't prove it. And so that leaves room for conspiracy theorists to say, Okay, they set up all this to distract us from what's really going on in the world, right? And everybody probably already knew. I think I think all us knew possibly that little dirt was gonna get off when Brian Steele and then Drew got on the case. That was like, yeah. You feel me? But they do all this shit, and that could make Dirt Career big as a motherfucker, you know? Who knows, you know? It can all be a plan.


Wills On The Tank: Good. Yeah. man.


smoo: What's your thought? What's your thoughts, Bill?


Eric: man, I think as far as seeing another black guy go down, that's what I celebrate. And that's what I, you know, I just think that because so many of, man, so many people have been wrongly convicted and it's so hard to get from under that thumb. And I think a person


Big Darrell: I guess.


Eric: like Lil Do- I don't know. Like, here's the thing is, allegedly if he did it, it ain't my- It ain't me to judge, man. That's him and his his maker that he gotta get right with.


Wills On The Tank: Mm-hmm.


Big Darrell: Yeah.


Eric: maybe the path of him getting out is for him to really really. I don't know man, so I just think that it's good to see when somebody get somebody of that stature get from under the feds and I personally think though I mean I feel a little dirt. I think dirt got a lot like he just got a lot more. It's something different about him. Me personally.


smoo: That's a good point. Yeah, that's a good point.


Eric: I just think it's something different about him, I do. I


smoo: Yeah.


Eric: hope he get, whatever he do, I hope he do something great with this second chance. That's all.


smoo: Yeah, that's


Big Darrell: And


smoo: a good point.


Big Darrell: and and


3 god: What's different


Big Darrell: I


3 god: about


Big Darrell: and I tell you something else now, Bill, because before he went in, he he did try to change his life around, right?


smoo: yeah, he came up came up with the Kids Bob song.


Big Darrell: Yeah,


Eric: Yeah.


Big Darrell: and then and then his father got out of jail. His father was leading him down the right way. I I guess he found found his new religion, Islam. And so he was trying to change. So what you saying is could you know that could be true. Him getting out for the better.


3 god: Whoa, whoa, whoa, talk about, talk about, time out, time out, time out, time out, talk,


Eric: He got a foundation.


3 god: hold up, talk about, time out, time up. We can't say that he was, now dirt my dog. But let's let's go for real though. That's what I'm saying. T.I. did the same thing with Daddy Gone. Like, what the fuck are we talking about?


Eric: Yeah, we all. That's an opportune time to change ain't it right, Yeah. Yeah.


Big Darrell: But no, no, no, no, no, Dean, no, Dean. It was it was about a year before they came and got him. It was like when his family got out the prison. Nah, I I I I can't say that. TI, with TI, it was


smoo: Well nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah there. They already knew they w he already knew they was on the way. Yeah. Yeah.


3 god: Bro, you you now bro. Yeah, he already knew that's in the works.


Eric: was the moon.


Big Darrell: a gimmick. But but when Dirk, his daddy was locked up, like how how many years his daddy was like? I think it was like 17 years.


3 god: No, I ain't saying that there. I'm just saying though, when you know you in trouble, you in trou. Like you when you get arrested, that ain't when you just found out. somebody been on you. When P. Diddy got hit up, he knew it was like it was coming. So what I'm saying is


Big Darrell: That's true.


3 god: you just don't know the day. So I'm I I'm not Dirk my dog now. Dirk my dog. Dirk is my dog. But


smoo: No.


3 god: let's not act like all my life when


Wills On The Tank: Hey.


3 god: wasn't at the very most convenient time.


Eric: Hey, the fans called and told him they was coming.


3 god: See


Big Darrell: But but no no that ain't true. But


2: But I think the difference in that though


Eric: This boy said, let me write on my life real quick.


3 god: Hey, hey,


2: Yeah.


Big Darrell: But look look, check me out though. He still ain't here to do


3 god: hey, Cole, I get one of them verses, one of them God verses.


Big Darrell: that though.


Eric: Hey, well we're about to come get you like man, let me go right this


3 god: Hey,


Big Darrell: But but but child to to to the defense of dirt to the defense of dirt. How many other people


3 god: hey, Cole, hey, hey, hey, Cole. Hey, look, I don't I don't care if I don't care if you outdo me on this bitch. But I mean that.


Big Darrell: But how many of people know that they're behind them and then they still don't give a fuck? Six Nine ain't give a fuck. Pooh Sheist ain't give a fuck. You listen to his whole album. niggas don't be getting no fuck about that shit. real quote unquote street niggas, they don't be getting


smoo: I've tr I've tried to tell I've I've tried I've tried to tell William that


Big Darrell: no fuck about


2: Yeah.


Big Darrell: doing that. So


3 god: No, that that's two different things though.


2: I I think it's a difference though. I think it's a difference there. I think somebody you give somebody like Dirt, knowing what he going against, the chance to hey man, make a chance. Make a change rather. If but he always gave that. It's some things you don't give grace to. I think Dirt is a person that you give grace to 'cause you can kinda


Eric: Great point.


2: tell you can try to get somebody to be a leader, but you can't get people to follow them all the time. You know what I'm saying? It's it's evident that people follow dirt, so it's like okay. Hey now if you follow


Big Darrell: Right.


2: this like you know what I'm saying, if you do this in a third, we can let you out. We s you seen them he can flu the people out to He could


smoo: he can be a test a testimony, a testimony.


2: be a t a be a beautiful testimony.


Big Darrell: Right, right. And then and then but but but I I still feel like I still feel like his father getting out of prison at the time, it was just like I know it seems like the opportune time that he did that song, but it just so happened his father got out of prison. I think his father did maybe 17 or 20 years or something like that, right? But his father


Wills On The Tank: Right on. Right on.


Big Darrell: coming out being the guidance and and showing him that, even though all his past, we know what Dirk is really cut like, right? But Something it's something about having a father figure or elderly figure in your life and then telling you, nah, this ain't what you really want, So like you say, it might have been opportune time, he know they was watching him, but he still didn't have to do that, you know. But I think it was the influences of his elders and his pop getting out and all that that had influence


3 god: There.


Big Darrell: on that. And I think it still will


2: Yeah.


Big Darrell: have good influence on him going Getting out, especially because he gonna have to leave the streets alone because all his partners was telling on him. That's crazy. A nigga got out and beat the shit, and all your niggas was telling on you. That's crazy.


smoo: But see, but see, that's the


3 god: But there, but there, let me let me let on let me finish.


smoo: hold on hold on, hold on, Dink. Hold on, Dink. Hold on. See, that's the that's the that's the play though.


Eric: Thank you.


smoo: That's the play. That's the play. And in my I guess this my little conspiracy brain are


Big Darrell: Yeah, yeah.

2: they it's the fashion they went down with though. I don't think I don't think people be celebrating duty low going taking that taking that elbow.


smoo: I don't know, I just still think it's like that's a that's a little game, that's a little game that's being played, you know what I'm saying? That's just that's just me. That's just me.

Big Darrell: Okay.


Eric: the


Big Darrell: That was a good ass time, boy.

3 god: Yeah, that'd be


Big Darrell: Maybe we just old heads.


3 god: No, it did.


smoo: man.


Eric: I still like shoes, man. But you know, I think I pay attention


Big Darrell: Incredible.


Eric: to it. So like I sent y'all a picture. You see the retro eights in the, I'm talking about retro eights, OG colorway. You got the fours, the yellow and black joints, the all white. Them joints would have never stayed in the store longer than an hour. What else? got the low top bread ones. OG ones that still on sale, my God? nah, man, this nigga culture is good.


Big Darrell: The the the one you sent that picture


2: Wait. Wait, so you're


Big Darrell: that them was ugly though.


smoo: Okay, so you saying it so you say so you saying it is dead.


Wills On The Tank: You said it's dead?


3 god: They won't know I would do one.


2: Are you


Eric: To the to the masses,


2: you helping this point?


Eric: I think you still got the people like the core people like, know, the wild ladies of the world who still like that's that's. my bad,


smoo: I think your point was kinda confusing, Bill, 'cause it sounded like you


Eric: my bad mainstream. Yes, sneaker culture did. Yeah.


Big Darrell: why though? It's dead because the I guess I want to say regency bias, right? Jordan don't mean shit to a nigga born out of 2000. That shit old. Like that's


Eric: you


Big Darrell: old. Like Jordan, nigga ain't seen Jordan play. They don't even show Jordan highlights for real. We know Jordan because that's our childhood growing up, right? But the generation under generation Z, they don't give no fuck about no damn. You know, they don't understand.


Eric: Well, who popping right now? Who popping right now?


Big Darrell: What he meant for the culture.


Eric: Who popping right now?


Big Darrell: LeBron?


Eric: Can I walk in the store right now and go get a pair of LeBron's?


3 god: Looking at what?


2: You probably can't get on John Morance.


Big Darrell: Yeah, yeah, you still can get us a pair of LeBron's, right?


Eric: No, yes you


Big Darrell: I I get I get I get what


2: Yeah.


Big Darrell: and see but see that they are not really just like superstars like how


3 god: whoa Tom out time I'm kinda confused on your point too with the LeBron shit. What you mean?


Big Darrell: No, he he's saying, he's saying, he's saying, even though LeBron is a superstar, it's still the culture is dead, essentially. basically meaning it don't matter what what superstar is the the sneaker culture, it ain't what it used to be.


Eric: And let me tell you why I I personally think the sneaker coaches did is because people are focusing their money on more important things like everything too high right now.


Big Darrell: Facts.


3 god: I I no


Big Darrell: I agree.


3 god: he


Wills On The Tank: Everything is high.


Eric: Probably be there right now.


3 god: Hold on, Smooth. Did you just hit it? Man, get the fuck out. Man, hey boy. Hey boy, get the fuck out the podcast, bro. Cause I just said


Eric: When I move


3 god: that shit. I just said that shit last week. You were talking about Nike after the SP 500. And I was like, nah, that Nike did digging the senses. Man,


smoo: These maybe.


3 god: get the fuck out of here. Hey man, I'm watching my cheese game, bro. I'm out there, bitch. I'm done. Nigga gonna take my fucking tape and then act like he just seen that shit, man. Get the fuck out. Hey, I'm out there, bit, bro.


Eric: My bad, three.


3 god: I think it I think it's shit, man. Shut the fuck, man. Hey, that's some bullshit. man.


Big Darrell: But but but see and I also think the sneaker culture


smoo: He copied my home!


Wills On The Tank: Thank you.


Big Darrell: And then look, I also think the sneaker culture is dead. It died after Kanye left Adidas. That's when the


3 god: Hello there, I got I gotta finish up on this nigga. Pause.


Big Darrell: the whole hype of the shit really died down. Niggas was really well


Wills On The Tank: What's that there?


Big Darrell: when when Ye


3 god: That's crazy.


Big Darrell: when Kanye West left Adidas, that's when


Wills On The Tank: yeah. Yeah.


Big Darrell: the the sneaker culture died. He was like the last hope of that shit. when you wait


Eric: Yeah.


smoo: Good point.


Big Darrell: on the drops and they will sell out instantly, the resale value, and he was the last hope of that shit,


Eric: And guess who had guess who also had Kanye West Nike and


Big Darrell: Nike. And they and and they and they wanna try to and they wanna give him the deal the Adidas guy. But hey, at the end of the day, but look, look, look,


2: The Red Out towers never came out.


smoo: I'm I'ma say this. I'ma say this.


Wills On The Tank: That's it!


Big Darrell: look, Bill, at the end of the day, Kanye West turned out to be the problem.


smoo: I I think everybody in this bitch know I'm


Eric: Got you.


smoo: not a a sneakerhead. But I seen a lot of people, I seen a lot of people say like the they they remaking the the originals too much. You know what I'm saying? Like it's you


3 god: Yeah. That's exactly what I was gonna say.


Big Darrell: I agree.


smoo: know what I'm saying, like they they they they mass produce and like the the stuff that's not supposed to be mass produced, you know.


3 god: Oops. That's so


Wills On The Tank: Mm-hmm.


Eric: Mm-hmm. Just like


3 god: if if I can if


Eric: it was supposed be exclusive.


3 god: I can if I can piggyback, cause that's how I was gonna try to get to my I was gonna try to get


Big Darrell: Instead of innovating that's what Bill said last week too.


3 god: I was gonna try to get to my point. The the the


Wills On The Tank: Did it.


3 god: the the sneaker it ain't it ain't dead cause niggas still buying Jordans, but niggas buying particular colorways. like you said that Bill was trying to say that he seen a whole bunch of those those those retros


Eric: Retro.


3 god: at the stove. Them them bitches done been recycled a few times. The flints then came


smoo: Yeah.


3 god: out a few times. so the flints ain't the flints no more. those eights done dropped a few times. But I can tell you this for sure, every time them damn Concords drop, them bitches get sold out. So and they done made


Eric: Yeah.


3 god: 15 different versions of them hoes. Cool, cool, cool grays. Go ahead.


Eric: But here's a deeper question.


2: Yeah.


Eric: It's a deeper question to you, Dink. Why is Nike up in the frequency on their staple shoes? Why?


3 god: I'm gonna tell you this though. I'm I'm I'ma say the the the the reason the shoe the shoe game itself, I don't think Jordan is there, but I think the shoe game itself is die is because it's no rarity to it. Everybody got a shoe. Everybody.


Big Darrell: Correct.


3 god: it was at a point when you did get a shoe, you was just a dude that made your own shoe, like Shaq, Step on Marberry, stuff like that. But now Dame Lillard got a shoe, Kyrie got a shoe, this nigga got shoe, that nigga got shoe, that nigga got shoe when when you had got a shoe back in the day, it meant something. Getting a getting on it j getting a shoe is just like being on the two K cover now. It ain't as special as used as is as it used to be.


Eric: Well, ask-


2: I ain't gonna say to that far.


Big Darrell: But and I also I also think it goes to


3 god: Yeah, I I honestly though too, 'cause niggas on the two K cover and not only are you on it's fifteen different covers of two K now. So you ain't even that you you ain't


2: Yeah, it's muscle. It's muscle one cover at a


Big Darrell: But then and then then.


3 god: that now it don't even mean that's Huh?


2: I said it ain't yeah, you got a point to two head cover. But let's think on shoes. I think I think to your point when you was talking about why they keep re reproducing well high productivity, I think because they're trying to they're trying to roll out the es exclusive damn, exclusivity out of it because we don't


Wills On The Tank: Let's go to safety.


2: yeah, because we don't have players to hold on to. I don't think Jordan. Jordans are cool. They clean as hell. But I think it's because Jordan was Jordan then. We stuck to the player. Over time we we don't


smoo: That's a good point.


2: we don't really have a player to necessarily hold on to for the shoot. So it's like


Wills On The Tank: Gravitate to.


2: Yeah the gravitate to it's the Jordan Levin Concord. The 11s, the Christmas drop gonna always be special. And so they like damn we ain't got a player to put this on. We can't put this on A And the shoe's doing pretty well, but so let's go to the shoe. This n this particular number. And we just gonna do these things with these other numbers to see what we can strike for goal. You know what I'm saying? 'Cause they can re they can put it out where they want to. But I think the lack of that, 'cause but you did say everybody got a shoe. I think they they Mike Nike has the


3 god: Right.


2: they have the option to find it out in real time. 'Cause they they not they not worried about the competition


Big Darrell: And the and the


3 god: Well I think also but but to be honest though, be honest though shoes are hip hop right now. it seems like the girls take over.


Big Darrell: Water down.


3 god: It seems like the girls take over. ain't like Stu shoes doing better than some n nigga shoes, Kaylin Clark's, Sabrina.


smoo: Sabrina. Sabrina.


Wills On The Tank: 50 cents just dropped his shoe and his sold out. the G units?


2: Right.


3 god: Alone T we


Big Darrell: 'Cause it's nostalgia. It's just


2: Whoa.


Big Darrell: like a a pair


Eric: Yeah.


Big Darrell: a pair of joints. But facts, Willio is right. it's nostalgia.


3 god: And and and Asian Wilson shoes, so it it's not yeah, it fifty in fifty six


2: But is is that something fifty is that something he could he can keep


Eric: You mean to tell me wait wait you mean to


2: that?


Eric: tell me wait wait wait you mean to tell me them g6 is sold out in Hours, and


3 god: Fanks, face two.


Eric: they're still


Wills On The Tank: They sold out.


Eric: you still got og retro a sitting in the show


3 god: That's because that's the size of though. no matter.


Big Darrell: Yes, because because look 'cause look it's rarity and then and then it's a nostalgic it's a


smoo: Hey, hold on, and I'ma say this.


Big Darrell: nostalgic shoe.


smoo: And I'ma say this too, bro. sold out it can be manipulated in so many ways.


3 god: Facts. I can put out two of them bitches.


2: Boy, Drake selling that and Boosie selling now. Two different things.


Big Darrell: That's true. But then, but then check this out, though, too. To your point, the


Wills On The Tank: Hahaha!


Big Darrell: shoe game is watered down, right? But it's also


Eric: Yeah, good point a lot.


Big Darrell: it's so now it's to me, it's Nike


smoo: Maybe we can still without the show.


Big Darrell: is focusing on comfort, right? And how niggas play in shoes and and how they dunk, how they land. It ain't no creativity in this shit. It's it's


smoo: That's that's what it is. That's what it is. But the


Big Darrell: It's like it's like it's no swag in the shoe. Jordan shoes, them bitches might have had bunions on his feet, and them his feet might have been bleeding, but them bitches look good when he worn in them. these shoes now, they look like goddamn orthopedic shoes now. They don't look cool. You can't wear them with no suit. You can't wear them with jeans and shit. It's like you don't really want them type of shoes on, It's design effect in this shoe.


Wills On The Tank: Not to mention my bad I was


2: You you can't wear them jeans. my goodness.


Wills On The Tank: just about to say like a lot of a lot of even with a lot of rappers they kind of go a whole nother Like it was kind of cool for rappers to talk about like, you know and nearly with the Air Force ones people It was talked about Jordans and they and they even shell toes with run DMC but then you


Big Darrell: Yeah.


Wills On The Tank: had like you had rappers start talking about like stuff like left field like Giuseppe's and Marcella's and you know


Big Darrell: Valenciagos, yeah.


Wills On The Tank: Yeah, and I looked at some of those shoes. To me, those shoes don't even look good. Some of them, you know what saying? Yeah, yeah, this is


smoo: None of them. None of None of them.


Wills On The Tank: keeping a book. but I don't know, and they just cost a lot. So I think sometimes people just go way left field just to be like, nah, you ain't got these or you ain't never heard of these. And I think that kind of put a stain on some of the shoe culture a little bit. Because, know, to me, like, I think about the early 20s and I'm gonna let somebody else have it, but. It was cool to hear Wale, and I'm not really a huge Wale fan, but it was really cool to hear him talk about shoes. And it motivated you to like, dang, I want to go get some shoes. You know what mean? Yeah,


smoo: step your flag up, yeah. Step your shit up, yeah.


Wills On The Tank: yeah. So you don't have those type of rappers on that anymore. It's different. But yeah, that's my little two cents.


Eric: think so.


smoo: Yeah. But I think it goes I think the point goes back to to connect Daryl point with Dink point, it's lack of creativity because everybody has a shoe. You know what I'm saying? So how how much creativity can you have? You know


Eric: Thank


smoo: what I'm saying? If everybody getting a shoe, you know what I'm saying?


Eric: Yeah.


smoo: everybody's shoe looks similar in some ways. It they might


Big Darrell: Right.


smoo: put snake skin on one nigga shoe and put motherfucking donkey hair on another nigga's shoe. Like I'm like, hey man, eat


Eric: Hmm.


Wills On The Tank: Hehehehehe


Big Darrell: But then but then think about this though.


smoo: You know what I'm saying? Like that's all they doing. That's all they doing is just like changing the


Big Darrell: Right.


Wills On The Tank: What'd y'all


smoo: Yeah, yeah.


Eric: Hey, but I will


Big Darrell: And then for


2: And


Eric: say this though. I will say this go ahead to you got a


Big Darrell: me.


2: mind you, and mind you go ahead well. Not good I'll just say and you got and you got the niggas that's pushing the shoe or these with these shoe brands, not even sad guys. it ain't trying to look like A E my dog, but he don't he don't push the I


smoo: Devin Booker. Devin Booker. Devin Booker got his own shoe.


2: need that one, nah. You know? Especially when it's a it's a it's a school


smoo: Yeah, yeah. Youngness, he don't push issue, yeah.


2: of fish. You just you just flow with the fish. You ain't trying to say, what's over there? Like, yeah.


Wills On The Tank: Mm-hmm.


smoo: That's that's a that's another that's another great point.


Eric: Because he could because look while I got a Nike he got a Nike shoe and The way


3 god: For real?


Eric: he be wearing them. Yes, and the way he be


2: You.


Eric: wearing them man. I'm going to say because he has swag


3 god: He got a colorway or he got a shoe?


Eric: He got a shoe. I don't really care for the


Big Darrell: Yeah,


Eric: shoe But he's such a swag guy that you be like man. He were he went a lot something


2: Cold,


Big Darrell: I I give you another


2: co.


Big Darrell: example too. It's like okay, when Ye was with


Eric: That was a good point too. I was just piggybacking off of my bad day. Go ahead. No,


Big Darrell: no no no go ahead, go ahead.


Eric: no, no. I was just saying I was piggybacking off of too with the point I made. You go ahead. That's all I want. That's all I want.


Big Darrell: Okay, and then then I just this is my last point. It's like when Kanye West went with when Kanye West went with Nike, right? You seen the type of Nikes he had, them bitches zipped up. They just looked it cool, right? And then when he when he went with Adidas the first time, the second time, they just looked it cool. It was like, damn, I never seen a shoe like that, right? And so now you seeing these shoes.


smoo: Everybody copied it. Everybody copied it. Everybody copied. And and I don't mean to cut you off, but I do. But if you think about it, bro, Kanye West really fucked up the shoe game. He really fucked it up because everybody went with that phone bottom and all of that


Big Darrell: Yeah.


smoo: shit after Kanye West started that shit. And that was


Big Darrell: Yep.


smoo: and it it ain't stopped. It ain't stopped.


Big Darrell: That shit ain't stopped, bro. Like


2: They start making running shoes like that.


smoo: Yeah.


Big Darrell: Yeah, everybody could they seen the height, but but that that's part of being innovative and making people want the shoe. It's like it somebody


Wills On The Tank: Right.


Big Darrell: everybody's scared to make something new, go outside of the box. And so and to Willio's point, that's why people was, I guess, going to them big ass Balenciagas little moon


Wills On The Tank: Mm-hmm.


Big Darrell: boots, cause they just looked it different, right? Even


Wills On The Tank: You okay?


Big Darrell: though they might not been clean, it just it was something different than just the regular shoe that you was used to.


Eric: Yeah.


smoo: Yeah.


Big Darrell: And so the red bottoms, they had red bottoms, they had spikes on the shoes. That's that's to me that's innovative. That's like something different, chains on the shoes, and but now every shoe looks the same. They look like orthopedic shoes and they all for comfort. Nah, nah, nah. Fashion is not about comforts. Fashion is about pain. It's about looking good. It ain't about feeling good.


Wills On The Tank: Yeah, yeah.


Eric: It's true. It's true. It's true.


2: What what Carter B Huddle never get cold, man. I if I don't care if it's cost, I'm gonna wear this dress. But to get back to the rappers influencer, fashion


smoo: Hey, hold on two. I'ma go off that point. I'ma go off that point. Cause you just said something important. And I think every nigga in here can attest to this. Nigga, if it's 30 degrees outside, but your fit is fresh, nigga, you're not wearing no jacket. You gon freeze your ass off in that line.


3 god: Yep.


Eric: I'm telling you, we don't all been there, man.


Big Darrell: Hey, so I


smoo: They they


2: Real talk.


smoo: gotta see this.


Eric: Look, you, hey, you


Wills On The Tank: yeah.


2: I ain't


Eric: gonna hit the bottle extra before you go out so it can keep you warm.


2: covering this up. Fuck it. The lick of my


Wills On The Tank: But


2: jacket.


Wills On The Tank: just of piggyback on what Darrell said. It's just like, it's kind of, and I try to, because I know that I realized that I'm a little older, and so I try to not be in that mode where, know, back when I was younger, we had X, Y, Z, you know, because sometimes we are, we gravitate to nostalgia, but you know. I know I said I don't want say that, but to say that anyway, a lot of the shoes back then just seemed more creative. I remember when Dion Sanders had a certain style of look. You got Allen Iverson, he had his own style of look. Of course Jordan, then you had the Scottie Pippins, you had the Pennies, all these


Eric: Who needs digressions?


Wills On The Tank: shoes.


Big Darrell: Yeah. See what I'm saying?


Wills On The Tank: It was just, was, everybody had their own distinct style. Everybody had their own distinct, no shoe really looked the same. And so it's just you had so many different variations. The Griffys, my goodness, that's my favorite shoe in the whole world. Like I can wear that shoe.


3 god: Yeah, we know.


Wills On The Tank: Yeah, y'all know, like I bought like four pair of them shoes in a row, like the same


3 god: Sai won't.


Wills On The Tank: kind, the same exact kind. And you know what saying?


Big Darrell: But they were so nice.


3 god: Now


Wills On The Tank: I just. I don't know man, I hate to just be that guy but it's...


3 god: No, no, no, Cap. Shoe, shoe, shoes used to be that though. okay, even with Kanye. You know what I'm saying? Just he had like with the red October, Bill. no, easy. That's my Nike Time rival. There a nigga try me


Big Darrell: The red October.


Wills On The Tank: Look!


3 god: now. why me now? Looking for red Octobers, I would tie him down. Hey, Bill, you don't know what that is,


Eric: Hmm.


Wills On The Tank: Yeah, I'll never forget that time too and Bill


3 god: do you, Bill? You don't know what that is, do you? Bill, I ain't fucking with you no more. That's the game.


Wills On The Tank: I don't forget when two of them spent the night at the mall


3 god: Yeah.


Wills On The Tank: to get a pair of them phones like that was the shoe craze


3 god: Yeah, we have a question.


Wills On The Tank: back in the day, you know saying like


Big Darrell: Even phone part of that, but they look how they looked at them bitches looked it cool. They had cool lines. They were like bubble


Wills On The Tank: Mm-hmm.


3 god: No.


Big Darrell: shoes. Them bitches was nice. it it


Wills On The Tank: Yeah.


Big Darrell: just to me Nike lost their creativity. they lost they


Wills On The Tank: Yeah, yeah.


Big Darrell: they gotta hire more creative people. That's what it's boiled down to.


Eric: Yeah, absolutely.


Wills On The Tank: But do you think it's not only


3 god: I love this one.


Wills On The Tank: creative people, but like the right people to endorse it as well? Because you know, again, we really,


Big Darrell: yeah, we don't have those people anymore.


Wills On The Tank: we don't have nobody to just be like, this is the shoe we're doing, like to make.


Eric: Think about the people who and who poppin'. You still got Kanye who can sell out stadiums all over the world and across overseas.


3 god: Shout out to Raw Wave.


Eric: You right?


smoo: Stadium, stadiums, brother. That's a different different than arenas. I'm talking about


Eric: It's the Arena Stadiums.


smoo: I'm talking about Dink, talking about some Rye Wave.


Eric: Yo


3 god: No, I'm talking about I'm talking I'm talking about he he hello hello hello hello hello T we okay what you mean? You ain't see what


Wills On The Tank: feel like Jay-Z made the Timberland cool. You know what I'm saying?


Eric: Yeah.


smoo: Don't don't don't do it. Don't do it, Dean. Don't do it.


3 god: I'm talking about what with his with his his crew just did.


smoo: Yeah, he that's just the name, bro. That's a that they they got a whole that's a whole team. That's a whole team. Briad Wade's just the name. He ain't doing that shit, man. Do you know who is


3 god: Why is a nigga hating? Mane, I don't underfucking stand. What's the point of it, man? Damn. So when a producer ain't do nothing but put money in the damn movie, y'all give him his props.


smoo: Man, that's just nigga 50 Cent representing a liquor company. come on, man. That's like


3 god: Native power!


smoo: Diddy representing fucking Sirap. Like, that's all right


3 god: He did it with power.


smoo: that's all Rod Wave is to the fucking Yeah, and and fucking power ain't 50 Cent show come to find out. That shit was fucking fucking Courtney Kemp shit.


3 god: No, when Pitty was over there they have all that extra, stuff in there. But now she got it well.


smoo: Man, I I I was hating but I'm just saying that ain't Rod Wave.


3 god: Yeah, you hating it. Well, wait, shout out my nigga, bro. I am


Eric: But the point I was trying to make was, you know, the people who are doing well in entertainment, these companies are not getting those guys. And when they had them, they let them out the door. the shoes and


Wills On The Tank: Yeah, yeah.


Eric: the paras.


smoo: Well, I think I I want to say this. I think I think what what's happening like with Nike and a lot of these companies of shit Adidas and stuff like that, this the first time in history where a lot of this shit is on the table. So when you you take away Kanye West or you take away this athlete like Kyrie Irving, you know what I'm saying? People get to see this shit on display and they can that affects the stock market more than these guys, these guys know that shit. You know what I'm saying? Because


Wills On The Tank: Yeah.


Big Darrell: Right.


smoo: it's it's on social media. You get to see how they this person feel. I I think a lot of that stuff plays into what's going on with these these companies. And then you got c somebody like Kyrie. All right, fuck it. I'ma go, I'm gonna go, do my own thing now. You know what I'm saying? Kanye West, he doing his own thing. So


Big Darrell: Yeah.


smoo: it's it's hell, it's just everything's just decentralized. everything is so fucking decentralized and


Big Darrell: Facts, thanks. That's facts, bro.


smoo: every every aspect of life


2: Thanks, bro.


smoo: everything is decentralized and you know and even speaking of


Big Darrell: And then and and then that little money that


2: Yeah.


Big Darrell: they was making. go go ahead, Smooth.


smoo: Right, I'm finna transition to the next topic. So I don't know if y'all know this, but like BT, like they took like all they archives off they off their website. Like


3 god: Yeah, yeah.


smoo: they they they literally just like wiped out the history


Big Darrell: Really?


smoo: of BT.


Big Darrell: I wonder why though.


smoo: I don't know. Maybe you guys can answer that for


3 god: No nobody know why. I


smoo: me.


3 god: I s I seen I I didn't know that was on


Eric: Is there a deal? Hold on, let's see.


3 god: the list, but I seen that. I seen that too, but I didn't know that was on the breakdown.


smoo: Yeah, it's on the list. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's number five. Number five.


Big Darrell: Ma ma ma maybe maybe they're gonna make it a suspicion service.


smoo: You said


Wills On The Tank: Hey man, as long as I can type in on going YouTube and type in Rap City, just to get my mind.


smoo: Well nah, but that's nah, that's really the bigger point though, Willio. That's


Wills On The Tank: Yeah.


smoo: really the bigger point. Is that with everything being on the internet, nigga, the drop of a dime, it it can disappear.


Wills On The Tank: Mm-hmm. Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.


smoo: You know what I'm saying? That's really like the bigger point. You know, we got 75 episodes, and if you don't got this on a hard drive.


Wills On The Tank: Mmm.


2: You too. They could cancel it anytime. I think Ice always said


smoo: Boom. You said what two?


Big Darrell: yeah, white. Pretty sure I'm pretty sure they got it though.


2: it's Ice always says, I don't know if y'all follow Ice off.


smoo: That's what I saw is saying.


Big Darrell: I'm pretty sure.


2: He always you know but his music he don't he don't rely on being on Apple music or whatever. He says he always buy a larger and larger hard drive. 'Cause I think it was I think it might be some Drake songs like they just took off the internet. And it's like, damn now you can't access that anymore. So it's like, do you really Well no I bought it, I'm good, I gotta They can take it off, don't care if you bought it or not. And it's it's kinda s sickening really to me to hear that BET took their archive down, especially Black Entertainment Television. The the original like we well


smoo: Right.


2: if you not type my Soul Train, but we got all our entertainment from it's like damn. Some of the classic some of them classic performance they didn't upload on YouTube. And I wonder can they still like copyright that and like strike your page for posting it on your page? If they really want it down.


Wills On The Tank: Yeah, it is


Eric: school.


Wills On The Tank: devastating. mean, dang, I mean, literally,


smoo: Did what


Wills On The Tank: wait.


smoo: no, I was gonna ask Bib, did he did you see a bigger point of why they do it, did it?


Eric: Nah, looks like it's, chat says it's more so a strategy. Says the


3 god: Yeah.


Eric: old strategy is the BET channel now they're trying to gear more towards the BET website, which is the app, which is BET Plus, but it ain't really going into breakdown about why this stuff wasn't moved from the BET app. Right,


3 god: Based on my video first and shit.


Eric: right.


Big Darrell: Right. That's what I thought. I think they're trying to make it a subscription server because


Eric: Yeah.


Big Darrell: if you want the old content you need it, subscribe to it.


Eric: But I thought it's already like that. It's not a BT plus, it's an app.


3 god: That's why it was a I don't have no more dude.


smoo: It is, but but I think that's I think what they think, you got it, Willio.


Wills On The Tank: I really got too much to say. When I go on YouTube, like literally just the other day, I had watched a whole, I watched a whole episode of Rap City. It was just like, they had a Texas segment of where they had, you know, Bumbi, they had the whole movement about, you know, the Chop the Screw music. And it was just like, I was just like living in my, like in my day. It's like, I said living in my day living in my my my younger years, man I just remember this this one this one Bt on rap city I love this freaking interview and Jay-z I'm talking about a young Jay-z. He just flying around in a helicopter He doing his he doing his interview in the back of a helicopter I'm like man, you can just see that this nigga jigger was going places even back then he was thinking bigger than everybody else You know saying with you know, everybody was wearing go he had his platinum chain on and I was like dang man like It's like a real nostalgia feel, nostalgia feel. It wasn't nothing like coming home from school, man. just, you know, turning on BET and then when that go on commercial, go to MTV, you know what saying? And then watch, you'll be learning, you'll learn about other cultures. Like I remember watching Green Day. What's some boy's name? Red Hot Chili Peppers. It


smoo: Blink one blink one hundred eighty two.


Wills On The Tank: Blink 182, then when that go on commercial, I flip back


2: Free dirt.


Wills On The Tank: to BET. You know what saying? And I


smoo: Yeah.


Wills On The Tank: used to get so


Eric: I'm a blocker.


Wills On The Tank: frustrated with like, and I know we talking about BET, just like MTV, well, both of them in general, because how are you gonna have MTV called music television is nothing music theater. You know what I'm saying? Then you got BET. But again, I understand. And then I had to realize that, okay, we in the end of the era, you know, That stuff really don't matter. don't really, and really halfway don't pay attention to videos. I remember when Drake and, when Drake and J. Cole had dropped that first person shooter video, I was like, nobody seeing this? this video is amazing.


Eric: Hey, speaking of bro, FOMO tomorrow night,


3 god: Yeah.


Eric: did y'all see the caption or the post Drake just put out maybe about an hour two ago about


smoo: Yeah.


Eric: him, like what this means to him and people don't


2: Fire.


Eric: really watch videos and,


Wills On The Tank: Man.


Eric: no, I think just the right people ain't putting out the right videos. Drake put out that video, that FOMO tomorrow. I know all y'all gonna tune in. I'm gonna tune in.


Big Darrell: Is it is it tonight?


Wills On The Tank: Yeah.


2: Re now re


Big Darrell: Is it tonight or tomorrow?


smoo: Tomorrow, tomorrow. I thought it was tonight. I thought it was tonight.


2: re read the next line, Bill. It's fifteenth.


Eric: Huh? Yup.


2: It's the fifteenth. Read the next line, Bill.


smoo: Yeah.


Eric: Hold on, hold on. Let me find it. Let me find it.


Wills On The Tank: Yo, but why


3 god: But hold on.


2: My bad, bro.


Wills On The Tank: you finding that? I just gotta say this, like, it just seemed like it should be a music video awards, you know, just, because to me that's a part of music. I'm real big on interviews. I think interviews go with the music and stuff like that. It kind of make you tune in to the rapper or get more interested. But, you know, with the videos, like, you know, just kind of expanding off of what I saying about Drake and Cole, man, when they dropped that video, I was like, how is nobody talking about this video?


3 god: But but T


Wills On The Tank: Bye.


3 god: we but T


smoo: Mean they are though.


3 god: but T we the people are dropping video like Smooth just said. The thing is though, what we not realizing though, y'all boys, is like that nostalgia shit dead because we the reason that shit was so great and granular back in the day because we didn't have access. Everybody can be Hype Williams now. Everybody can be everybody


Wills On The Tank: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.


3 god: can be Oprah. We gotta talk show. phone home. it it so interview interviews ain't that shit no more. And and when


Wills On The Tank: Yeah, right, right, right, right. Yeah, that's good.


smoo: Great point.


3 god: and when somebody said Drake, Drake is Drake Drake is is a one of one dog. So of course and then hold on up and Well that's what I'm saying


Wills On The Tank: and to me, that's even more of a reason to get excited. Go ahead, go ahead, my bad.


3 god: because he still fit that criteria of nostalgia too. You know


Wills On The Tank: Yeah, yeah.


3 god: what I'm saying? He came in at right at the top of the the the internet well bent internet but of social media.


Wills On The Tank: Right, right, right.


3 god: So he was one of those first accessible guys. So he he beat a lot of people to that spot, right?


Wills On The Tank: Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.


3 god: But his main, his main claim to fame, not claim to fame, but the main thing about him is that he was able to maintain now, still, still


Wills On The Tank: Right.


3 god: be the guy, even you know, through a different era. So


Wills On The Tank: Right.


3 god: like that that's that's the thing, even with like even we were talking about the shoe game, a lot of stuff, all that stuff is because now you can get a whole bunch of generics from anybody too. So of course that's gonna die.


Big Darrell: Análogo, né?


3 god: You don't know what's real, what's fake. Okay. So it's like, yeah, fact. So it's just the easy access, the easy attainability


2: What's the effects?


3 god: of different goods and


Wills On The Tank: Right.


3 god: trades. It's just, you know, that shit ain't gonna be the same no more.


Wills On The Tank: And I guess you're right though, because anybody can make music these days. Back in the day, when I was a little younger, used to cost a real arm and a leg to just get studio equipment. But now,


smoo: Well speaking of costs, speaking of cost and everybody being able to do everything, why the fuck the baby is charging forty five forty-five dollars for his waffle, but but I can go


Eric: That's a great segue.


Wills On The Tank: Hehehehehe


2: Mm-hmm.


smoo: make the same goddamn waffle for fucking a dollar and forty cents, bro.


Eric: man.


Wills On The Tank: But see, that's cool that you said that because I saw somebody on the internet talking about this same exact situation. he was saying how people would go to these certain high-end restaurants, they'll take the picture of the food, they'll film themselves doing X, Y, Z, they'll like, they'll call it a vibe. And when a black man do it, charge a high-end waffle, it's like, why has it cost so much? And that really got me to thinking. I remember Nipsey Husser had inspired me to read this book called Contagious. And it was one part in the book where we talk about, there was a hundred dollar cheesecake, which is where he got the idea to do his hundred dollar mix tape. You know what I'm saying? And so this cheesecake blew up because like anybody could make a cheesecake, but they made theirs a hundred dollars and it just became this big staple in Philadelphia. You know what I'm saying? So like nobody. You know what saying? That's like a high-end thing. People go out their way to try to get that. But then like, why can't the baby charge $45 for a waffle? You know what I'm Or is it more because we know who he is? Or is it because the people that he catered to, they may not really, I guess, really have it. So it do kind of get you to thinking about why are certain things accepted in one area. and spread and you actually you get this thing called social currency where you're seeing that's cool if you try it but then you know another person you know do something that we kind of already familiar with in the community and they're like man that's too high he tripping or what i mean and i don't think nothing wrong with it if he's providing great you know if it's his restaurant he's providing great service And if it really is a good experience, know, and of course, I'm not going to buy it, but why not? I don't see nothing wrong with it, you know.


Eric: I just looked at how much these Trill burgers cost. You


Wills On The Tank: Yeah, I know them things a lot and I want one.


Eric: can get you a Trill burger, an OG burger for $11.29. You can get a triple OG burger for $13.79. The OG combo. So that thing come with fries, a burger, and a drink for $15.28. All right.


3 god: That's the baby stuff.


Eric: Yeah, no, no, this is bump. So, so, okay. Okay, so look, the highest


smoo: Nah, that's real burden.


Wills On The Tank: Nah, this Bun B's fight, I want a Trill burger so bad.


Big Darrell: Mm-hmm.


2: It's a bar and be.


Big Darrell: I had one. It's really good. That's good.


Eric: angle in that menu is the vegan OG combo. $17.29. All right,


Big Darrell: That's what I had. Impossible.


2: They're built.


Eric: so with the baby charging these outlandish prices, right? I mean, you also gotta know the economy that you in also.


Wills On The Tank: That's right, that's right.


Eric: I think if you want to be a business owner, from my understanding, this is the baby first restaurant. So he got, he's just a learning curve, man. OG, he got it down back. He got, man, it's in that $20 price range. It's kind of exclusive, but then it's not. It's higher than McDonald's, but then, you know what I mean? It's a little lower than Five Guys. So he in there, like, he's doing his thing. You can't just jump out of here with $50 waffles and chicken fingers, on your first try. No, bro. It don't work like that. I just think that's tough.


Big Darrell: And then and then I I think he should distance himself from the business if he wanna have a high end. I I feel


Wills On The Tank: That's what I said.


Big Darrell: like every every high end restaurant, you don't really know the owner. You don't you ain't never seen him in public. You you never like


Wills On The Tank: Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.


Big Darrell: like like Ruth Chris. Who the fuck is Ruth Chris?


Wills On The Tank: Yeah, right. And that's why I said it's because we know him. That's exactly why I brought that up. I it because we know who he is? you know, I'm not mad at it, but as long as it's really, it has to be quality. You gotta be, I always say, if you're gonna charge a certain price, you gotta kind of be able to justify it in quality. You know what saying? You just can't be putting X, Y, Z together. You know what I'm saying?


Eric: I'm mad. I'm mad to take.


smoo: Dink


3 god: I disagree


smoo: Two. Ding Two.


2: And I think I think him


3 god: with that though.


2: I th I think him putting his name on it was one thing. But I think a lot of people been giving a s six and a half through six and a half through seven point five. But that that's them knowing like the trend is hot to talk about. I done seen like D D brother dub, he done flew out to go give his r review. It's it's


Eric: Mm-hmm.


2: a high topic to talk about and I think it's also hot to say to honestly give it, give your full opinion. But I think he put his


Wills On The Tank: Mm-hmm.


2: name on it because he was doing this series. I think he was just on the fly just doing his just cooking before shows. No knife. People love no knife. Shit, I love no knife. I like to cook. I damn. So shit he different me and him, he got the cheese and star restaurant. But that's also I think he kinda took them comments for real equity, you know what I mean? But I don't think people


Eric: Mm-hmm.


2: thought he would be charging 45. I still don't I don't nah bro. I don't know, man. 45 is kinda that's steep though. That's steep for your first venture. Especially


Wills On The Tank: That is, is spirit seat. Yeah.


2: when it's not overwhelming. It's not, especially for breakfast. I don't think we're going through the days trying to spend 45 at breakfast.


Eric: What? Had y'all read the reviews on it though?


2: I seen a I seen probably 20 review reviews.


smoo: Yeah.


Eric: What


Wills On The Tank: What was they saying?


Eric: would you


Wills On The Tank: What was they saying?


2: I didn't get I think seven to six and a half to s eight is a good review of people. But it is also price wise, what do they be I think the main thing I got from everybody do I have to come here again? Nah, not really.


smoo: Yeah. I


2: And


smoo: I heard he did drop the price of the the soul food waffle. I think it's thirty five dollars now and they come with four pieces of chicken. So you know, he did come down on that


Big Darrell: Yeah, okay, that's good.


Eric: Rainbow.


smoo: price. What's your thoughts, Dean?


3 god: I think I think people just got shit to say for no reason. the nigga I I'm with more with T Wheels. I I do my thing with T Wheels though, I like you say, I think he know where he is. I don't think that's the problem that we know he is. I think is the the problem is we know who he is. And when I say that is not just cause we know his name, we just the way we look at him as a rapper. So when you look at a rapper, you're not you're not And you're talking about you came from property, this, this and that, but then you wanna charge this, it's it kinda looked kinda what they call it? I can't think of the word, but it just looked kinda like like dang how you gonna be talking about this but then charge your people this when you came from that. But I think if it was Jay Z Yeah, fact. Contradicting, contradicting. That's the word I'm looking for, contradicting. But I believe if it was Jay Z, 'cause he


Wills On The Tank: Yeah. he's not keeping it real. Yeah. Yeah. I get what you're Yeah. Now it would make sense for Jiggle.


3 god: Yeah, it'll make sense for Jigga Jigga because he didn't move his whole people don't his yeah, him as a rapper, but you now he's known as a businessman. So it's like Yeah.


Wills On The Tank: It's the brand, it's the brand.


smoo: The quality of product. The product quality.


3 god: Yeah. So so I ain't gonna let nigga finish.


2: I don't know.


Big Darrell: But even even his 4040 club and then he had restaurants and stuff, it just is still elegant.


Wills On The Tank: Yeah, you don't expect niggas, I'm talking about real niggas to just be like, my bad, my bad, dawg, my bad, man. I be doing that mess again, my bad.


3 god: Nigga ain't gonna let a nigga finish it all, is it man? Shit.


2: I feel I bro. No, you do good. I feel like it's it's


3 god: Mm-hmm.


2: it's that and it's not though, 'cause I think we still talking about breakfast, right? But on Ho's behalf, the brunch with him and Diddy Head, them both out there with suits. The baby just had he just moved him and his I guess the


smoo: Nigga had a wife beat on.


2: right. But they also had the workout


Wills On The Tank: Okay.


2: spot. On that Sunday to work out in the same on the same turf, we finna serve brunch at. So it's not it's like a you're welcome, whatever you in are, So then but far as Jay Z, he's wear a suit. So you expect in this place is you expect to p pay a particular price if you gotta dress up a certain way. If it's a dress coat. If it ain't a dress code, why I'm paying forty five for a waffle. I I get that.


Wills On The Tank: Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.


3 god: Well well so so I alright


Wills On The Tank: What about the Marathon burgers? How much some of these?


3 god: hold on so let me finish what I'm saying though. So that's what I'm saying though. Like that's what I'm saying. I don't I I even if the baby was in a suit right now, I don't think it would have mattered because of who he is. Mind you, this is the same dude that got counseled for making AIDS comments. So he already got a impression on him that you are, you know, some people don't like You you're a rapper, so you more like gangster rap, privish. that's what you think when you think of him as a


2: Can I throw?


Big Darrell: You kill people.


3 god: you know saying, no, I'm saying you think straight out the hood. That's what I'm saying. So it ain't like you like this uppity guy, you thinking you should sell those type prices. That's what I'm saying.


smoo: You saying they stereotyping him.


3 god: It's stereotype, right. Right.


Wills On The Tank: Yeah.


3 god: But Jay Z then changed that whole persona of him that you look at him different. So what I'm so basically what I'm trying to say is it doesn't matter what the the suit or anything with Jay Z. He could just put his name on it and you're gonna automatically look at it. It's just like, it's just like Sean T the trainer, or anybody. If, if, if you can sell the same exact product. I didn't I looked at Sean T products, all his products, from insanity, San Diego


2: We know.


3 god: 30, to now his bodybuilding stuff. It's some of the it's some of the same stuff that this nigga dude say got. But He's Sean T now, you look at him like this this priority trainer, this big time trainer mind you to another guy that might just be like, I'm I I got an at-home workout. So


Wills On The Tank: Mm-hmm.


3 god: it's about the person. So if Jay if the baby was a person we looked at different, we wouldn't even be worried about these prices. So that's why I say it's about who you,


Wills On The Tank: Yeah, that's a fate.


3 god: it's about who you are, how we look at you. If he if it was Donald Trump selling these things, I guarantee them white folks be shit, them Trump, them Trump waffles.


Eric: Okay, here's a question. What if the baby came


2: for sure. For sure.


Eric: out with this restaurant at the height of his career? At the height when he was like, you know, poppin' poppin'.


3 god: Same thing.


Wills On The Tank: I think people still be the same. think it'd be the same. I think it'd be the same.


Big Darrell: But it might it might it might have been better cause that that's before he ruined his reputation as far as killing.


Eric: Exactly. That's exactly what I'm


3 god: no no


Eric: saying.


3 god: no it the the rep don't matter. Bro his reputation was a a a


2: No, the rep the rep does matter.


3 god: a grown ass man in a diaper. That's his reputation. What you talking about? That was that's what he first came out with.


Big Darrell: No, no, his reputation is his reputation is being like a troublemaker, being like a a murderer, being like somebody


3 god: That's what I'm saying. I'm telling you the same thing. I'm saying so w what what what type of prestige did he would have gained when he was hot from selling these type of waffles?


Big Darrell: But but he would have had a cleaner image, more people would be willing to go to his restaurants and stuff.


Eric: That's how loud I trying to say.


3 god: You telling me he would have had a cleaner image when he was known as a murderer.


2: No dumb.


smoo: Hold on man. Hold on, bro. Y'all, y'all, y'all,


2: He wasn't he w he wouldn't have had a cleaner image


Big Darrell: No, before the murdering.


smoo: y'all, y'all point, y'all ain't really falling on the the proper point because he don't have a problem with people coming to the restaurant. Like, that's not the problem. Yeah, but his the branding the


3 god: No, I'm talking about the prices. I'm talking about what people say. I my that's been my point the whole time.


smoo: branding ain't that ain't the issue. The the issue is the price.


2: Yeah, basically at all.


smoo: Like y'all making it


3 god: Yeah, that's why I'm green.


Eric: Yeah.


smoo: y'all making it his image and this that and the third and black people this and that. The shit high.


Big Darrell: Well no no no no no. That that that ain't true school, but


3 god: Well, that's what we talk about though, Smoke.


smoo: Let me finish, bro. Let me finish. Let me finish. Like, the shit is high. Like it costs it costs a dollar and fifty cents for a box of waffle mix. So, like, you know what I'm saying? So, like, what are we talking about? Like, it this ain't


3 god: It's


smoo: got nothing to do with branding. This ain't got nothing to do with being black. It's high as fuck. That's why he dropped the price. Like, it costs you you can you can make that whole meal, you can make you a chicken and waffle. For less than five dollars on your own. And you got a nigga


Eric: I decree you.


smoo: out here charging $25 for a quote unquote different, a different way of making it. And


Wills On The Tank: it.


smoo: people coming back and saying, like, nigga, this tastes like the waffle I made at home. Like, so that's all it is is people coming back,


Wills On The Tank: Yeah.


Big Darrell: Right.


3 god: No, no.


smoo: tasting the waffle and be like, bro, this ain't no different than what I made at the crib.


Wills On The Tank: It ain't no different than what I could have did. I always say just like when I was a when


3 god: I I disagree I disagree you on that.


Big Darrell: Yeah.


Wills On The Tank: we was in like car sales, you know, they always had this thing like if you're going to pay a certain price, you got to justify the price to the customer. You know what I'm saying? So that's kind of how I see things. If it's if it costs that I'm not mad at it for costing that because they're like I said, just going back to my example, there was a there's a cheesecake. Anybody can make a cheesecake, but they


smoo: like


Wills On The Tank: got this particular one that's one hundred dollars. So like.


smoo: Right. So it's just like it's just like you all right, so say Willie, you made a post the other day about salmon. It's a different between a nigga saying, Hey man, this is salmon and this is wild caught salmon. And nigga be like, shit,


Wills On The Tank: Yeah.


smoo: nigga, you caught that shit with your bare hands? Like that's a difference. If a nigga just making waffle mix and you ain't telling me what's different about the waffle mix, nigga, but it did like is it crack in the waffle mix? Like


Wills On The Tank: Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You got to justify the price.


3 god: No, I I disagree with you wholeheartedly.


Wills On The Tank: No, I agree with that. You gotta justify the price. I believe it.


Big Darrell: I do I do too. I I I I'm with you on that d


3 god: No, I'm I'm gonna give hey, I'm gonna I'm gonna use your example, T Wheel. I'ma use your example, T


Big Darrell: I I don't I don't think it's not. I don't think it's hot.


3 god: Wheels. He's saying it is not Brandon. I'm telling you it is point his persona is part of it. Cause Buick is a car is a car step. Hold on, let me finish. Let make my point. Let me make it.


smoo: Listen, but this no, but listen, listen, B. No, no, no. You're saying, but listen. How do I say this? Publicity is publicity.


3 god: Thanks.


smoo: People are going to the restaurant. He don't have


3 god: Right.


smoo: a traffic issue. So you can't say it's a brand new.


3 god: Okay. No. You said no, no. You saying the pro you said why people have problem with the price. I'm giving you I'm giving you the reason of the price. It's because of how we look at somebody. Because if Bu Buick Buick and Calak can make the same exact car. Buick Buick and Buick and Calak can make the


Wills On The Tank: Lovice!


3 god: same exact car. But if you put the Calak emblem on that bitch, that Calak


Big Darrell: Yeah. And they don't pay more.


3 god: is known to make luxury cars. But if you go


Wills On The Tank: Yeah.


3 god: back and find out


Big Darrell: it was just same drive train same everything.


3 god: If you really find out, if you really know it, Toyota and Lexis, they the same makers. But because you put the


Big Darrell: But nigga pay high school.


Wills On The Tank: Infinity and Nissan is the same car!


3 god: Yeah, it's the same as that car. But it's what it's it's the persona. So when you see a hood


Big Darrell: And they're gonna put more to the infinity than the easy one.


3 god: rapper talking about he wanna charge fifty dollars for a fucking waffle that I can make it crib, if but besides a nigga like Trump that's a billionaire or Elon Musk, it's so many fucking electric cars, but you see Elon Musk's name on that bitch, shit. Elon Musk, that's Tesla. I'm going for that.


Wills On The Tank: I look, I jiggled, jiggled, said he stabbed somebody, but we got a problem with the baby, said he killed somebody. like, it's like, but people got to spend more, but


3 god: it's it's it's personal, man.


Wills On The Tank: people don't have a problem with paying jigger prices if he did the same.


3 god: Hey.


Big Darrell: But but Jigga Jigga


smoo: But that's


Big Darrell: cleaned up his image though. Jigger got


smoo: not true though. That's not true though.


Big Darrell: the got a family, he got kids.


Wills On The Tank: I don't know man, I kind of believe that too though.


smoo: But that's what I'm saying though, but people gonna do Jay Z the same way. If he come out with a damn waffle that's forty five dollars.


Big Darrell: Nah, but they didn't do it when he came out with Ace of Spade. When he had the Ace of Spade, niggas was paying. Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on. I'm I'm gonna change that. I'm I'm gonna change


Wills On The Tank: people are more susceptible to roll with jigger prices.


3 god: Fact, it's it's it's crazy.


smoo: truthfully, bro.


Big Darrell: that. Cause look, 'cause look, Rick Ross came out with Bel Air, right? Bel Air is twenty nine dollars a bottle. Niggas don't complain about that, right? Jay Z came out with Ace of Spade. Niggas was paying five hundred, three hundred, four Thousand dollars per those fucking bottles just cause Jay-Z said this is my shit. You get what I'm saying? So it ain't that the price is


smoo: Yeah, but it's a story behind that though. But it's a story behind that. It's a


3 god: I'll give you another example, Derek.


smoo: story. It's a story behind Ace of Spades. The reason Ace of Spade is so big is because that was when Champagne or whatever the brand was, Chris Thall was big. And them niggas didn't allow black people in. So he came


Wills On The Tank: There you go.


smoo: with his own brain. And so that's a that that it has a story behind that, bro.


3 god: I'll give you that one. But I I give you I'll give you an example. I'll give you a simple example.


Big Darrell: But still, but still, it doesn't make it, it doesn't make it it don't


smoo: But it's


Big Darrell: make it five hundred dollars more than Bel Air. It don't make it five just because it got a story behind it. That's what I'm saying. That's what me and Dink saying it's the branding. Jay-Z come in behind it. they let me in


3 god: the Brandon. Their story is the Brandon. The story is the branding.


Big Darrell: and and now y'all niggas pay me instead of buying Chris Style. Y'all pay the Chris style price to me. Like that that's the branding.


3 god: Nigga, nigga. I


smoo: Yeah.


3 god: remember I was somewhere with Bill. I think I was


smoo: I can agree with that, but I I still think at the end of the day, bro, waffle mix, we're not talking about we're not talking about distilling liquor. We're not talking about distilling liquor. We're not talking about a nigga billing a motherfucking machine car. We talk about motherfucking waffle mix. So what y'all y'all trying to


Wills On The Tank: Talk about pancakes.


2: Até aí.


3 god: That's the same thing.


smoo: y'all y'all have these philosophies that are true, but my nigga, he using waffle mix for motherfucking publics.


Wills On The Tank: The same one for Waffle House!


Big Darrell: Well no you're you're you're right, Scoop. But what I'm saying is if the that if that waffle


3 god: But but but but but but you're not understanding though, bro. What we trying to tell you? We gave


2: I think you I


smoo: And


3 god: you simple examples.


smoo: we know, we


Big Darrell: if that shit


Eric: He got to walk my house.


smoo: know this shit, we know this shit. I can yeah


Big Darrell: waffle


Wills On The Tank: He got the Waffle House mix


smoo: bro, y'all talking about y'all talking about liquor and that's a that's a whole process.


Big Darrell: That's true.


Wills On The Tank: and no more of the goozy.


Eric: Back then the wise people with the Waffle House mix!


Big Darrell: But but but listen to me, listen to me. That is true, Smooth. But if that same waffle was in Ruf Crisp, Ocean Prime, Dale Frisco, a


smoo: Fuck no.


Big Darrell: nigga would pay 45. I'm telling you, bro. Bro, I went and bought


3 god: Yeah.


Big Darrell: three fucking shrimp tacos and and Eddie V's and that bitch was fucking $35. Three little bitty ass tacos.


smoo: But listen though, but listen though. All


2: I think I I think the more of a problem is the type of meal of the day it is.


smoo: right. So I'm a I I I agree with y'all. I agree with y'all on the I agree with you on the quote unquote branding part. But the difference is I don't necessarily think it's branding, but advs they they got a track record from fucking 60 70 years ago. Ruth Chris got a track record from 60 70 years ago. That ain't that ain't got nothing to do with branding. Like nigga, we we tried and true. The baby's not tried and true.


3 god: Bro, that's but I I


Big Darrell: That's true. That's true.


Wills On The Tank: What would make one?


Eric: You're


Big Darrell: That's true. That is true. I think


Eric: crazy.


Wills On The Tank: My question is what would make one though because


Big Darrell: two things be right at the same time. That's true. That's


smoo: He gotta make it through this shit, what niggas doing to him.


Wills On The Tank: Yeah, okay. Yeah, yeah.


3 god: Okay, so hey, so so no


Big Darrell: true. I think it's a little bit of branding. I think it's a little bit of being high. And it's not tried and tested.


3 god: Daryl, Daryl, you the Smooth, you proven our point, bro. we not saying that it ain't gonna take him. You the question is, why do you think people got a problem with his prices? Ain't nobody trying to make it a branded thing saying that's only specific thing, but what we're basically saying, these niggas like Root Chris, these niggas that you're naming already created a name for themselves. So therefore, baby gonna have to do the same thing. The baby, but his name is already has been Tarnished. So since his name has been Tarnished or that or don't even say Tarnish, just what we're known


smoo: Yeah.


3 god: for him to be, his name is a part of bro, you supposed to be a hood rapper. I'm not gonna take you serious selling cake meat. But if you if a if


smoo: Well all right, this is what I'ma say, this is what I'ma say, Dean.


3 god: a billionaire give you the same advice, you're gonna take his advice.


smoo: But this is what I'm gonna say, then I'm gonna tell you why I don't agree with that at all. They doing Les barbecue the same way. His name ain't tourness out here. And they talk about how high his oxtails is all day and every day. That's just what niggas do. This ain't got nothing to do with this image y'all saying. I see it on TikTok every day. If a nigga got every time Les go to somewhere, the city specifically says, man, man, this. This nigga got kangaroo tails. His shit high as fuck. They do it to everybody. Ain't nobody talking about Liz. He got a family. He got three kids. A beautiful wife. What what they got to do with Brandon?


Big Darrell: But but but then but then but then this is what I say to that.


3 god: Point still approving. Appreciate it.


Big Darrell: I agree, but I think Les needs to remove himself from his business because when people put a nigga


smoo: You can't, bro.


Big Darrell: face hold on hold on when black people put a black face to it and it's like somebody they can see, they can touch, and they're like, bro, you like my uncle. Nigga, why is you charging me these goddamn white folks? You my uncle. You feel me?


Wills On The Tank: Why we like that though? Let's talk about that.


smoo: Bro, but listen though, yeah. You can't


3 god: No, no, we're not gonna talk about that. No.


smoo: you can't you


Big Darrell: So so so


3 god: Hey there.


Big Darrell: so so it's the branding to me a nigga like


3 god: There. There. No, no.


Big Darrell: if if if the baby owned the restaurant, he didn't say he was it it it was his restaurant, they just say a new elegant a new elegant breakfast brunch spot is opening. And niggas would


3 god: There.


Big Darrell: go there And but when they know it's your shit, a nigga don't want to pay you the prices that you want to put on your shit because


smoo: Disagree with


Big Darrell: of the branding and image that is going along with it. And less shit is good. to me, if less sold his shit and one of them big companies, he can get that price. But niggas look at his face. this nigga on a fucking grill. This nigga in his backyard. This nigga don't nigga don't want to pay that. Cause nigga justified those prices because they can see you.


3 god: So there, there. Hold on.


smoo: But he gets the price. It's


3 god: I can't ask you this, Smooth. Can I ask you this?


smoo: you you got it you got it, you got it.


3 god: This basically what I'm saying, bro. I will agree with you on that, which is I do agree with that. People gonna complain regardless. I'm


Wills On The Tank: Right on.


3 god: I'm I'm not saying that. My answer to your I'm answering your question. You your question specifically is why the baby? And I'm saying because of him, he's more popular. Everybody's gonna complain. You're not gonna hear that shit from Les worldwide because Les ain't as famous. You you're I'm answering your specific question. I so the same answer for less, for less, I mean for less, whatever the dude's name, I'm just basically saying he is more popular, so he's gonna get more of the hit. Everybody I complain about Ruth Crisp. Everybody gonna complain about the prices. But if your specific question is Why is nigga going at the baby? And I'm saying because of who he is and he's more he's bigger than Les, you're gonna get more of the the the internet traffic talking about him. If Les was still as popular like with with with with Daryl Point the face, I I I think they'll come the the complaints would be just as big. But it's more acceptable when you got it coming from somebody like a business owner or however we look at somebody. It's like if we see a fat if a fat nigga give you the same advice about health, I'm not listening to that nigga. You're gonna listen more to the nigga that's in in health. It's just I mean, it is what it is. It's the persona.


Big Darrell: Thanks. Thanks.


3 god: See, it it's the persona. It's it's it's plenty of coaches. You'd be like, man, how this nigga know football?


Big Darrell: Even look look look, hold on, D. Even if the nigga was even a nigga with 600 pounds and he got down to 300, but he still look big and you ain't know he lost 300 pounds, you ain't gonna listen to this nigga because he looked big. You feel what I'm saying? That's what I'm saying.


3 god: You ain't just gonna live. It's just the persona. It's just it's just persona, bro. And he giving you the same advice as a nigga like Bip eating carrots and and fish and shit.


smoo: But I'm but I mean I don't I don't think it I don't think it I still


Eric: Enjoy a little while.


smoo: disagree because like But listen No it's high it's high but I'm saying though


Big Darrell: It's hot. It's hot as fuck. It's hot.


smoo: like the restaurant is called No Knife like everything matches up with the brand that he's creating. Like I don't think it's like you know, I don't personally think it's like something off brand. I don't think so.


Eric: Yeah. Yeah. It's hard to, if you're going to say, I keep going back to the Trill Burgers. If you have something like Trill Burgers and you charging them burgers, $40 a burger, $50 a burger, I'm going be like, bro, you tripping. It's Trill Burger. It ain't like, like, nah, bro.


smoo: Nigga, you gotta tell nigga, you gotta tell me that that cat


Eric: Why?


smoo: that I I bet bet I got an example. some people, they you know like I'm I'm pretty sure y'all know what like halal meat is and like


3 god: Yeah.


smoo: what they say like it's like the cow is like fed,


Eric: Mm-hmm.


3 god: No, it's a like


smoo: stressed, what is it, then?


3 god: you can't cut it or some shit in certain ways 'cause it's against their religion. So it it's it's blessed. Something like that.


smoo: Right, right, right. So that that yeah, so that that animal is stress free. You know what I'm saying? that's the whole that's the whole point because people think that these the food that we eat is these animals be stressed. But people say, hey man, this meat is halal. nigga. Yeah, so so


Big Darrell: Hallo. Yep, they pray over it before they could.


smoo: say so if you gonna tell me this pr just just justify it in a sense, he tried to justify, he like, Hey man, we We we we mashed those mashed potatoes into the into the


Big Darrell: Yeah.


smoo: the waffle. That's what he said. He was like, man we pushed them mashed potatoes into the waffle


3 god: So so so bas so basically, so basically. So basically what you telling me, Smooth,


Eric: Hair mask mask potatoes.


3 god: you don't care if the nigga lie to you. That's what you you hey D D D yo D D the Yeah, I know. That's so that what


smoo: I don't. I don't I don't. I don't. Organic, the word organic, the word organic.


Eric: Everybody's lying anyway. There's a lot!


2: You don't know if that's true or not.


3 god: you that was you saying is


Big Darrell: Right.


3 god: missing. He just missed he missing a lie. Hey, I need you to go get some pancake you made from Walmart, but say it you walked twenty miles to get that bitch. Wow. What the fuck?


Big Darrell: But then no, no, no, no, no, no. What he needs to say is this is a organic brown wheat flour mix. That what the nigga gotta say.


Eric: flown in from Bali or something like that. That's it. That's all he needed to say.


smoo: That's what they do.


Big Darrell: There you there you go.
