Chapter 2: How do Nas and Jay-Z's corporate ventures impact their communities?
I mean, statistically, no matter what, when a casino enters a city neighborhood, the crime rate statistically goes up. That happens no matter what. Yeah, because I'm broke now. I got to get it. That's going to be the thing, regardless.
Which I mean, I don't know, Times Square being an option right now, Hell's Kitchen Times Square for the Caesar's Palace one that Jay-Z and them are trying to bring amongst a bunch of Saudi billionaires, I'm sure. They do have regulations, and I only know this because it directly affected my family, because you know in Hell's Kitchen,
that community, they meet with them and have certain things they have to meet to make sure that they're not displacing a neighborhood now. There are regulations now, which I do appreciate, and the things you have to do in the community to even bid to do a casino now. They're trying to make it a little bit bigger.
Because we've seen what the fuck it's done to neighborhoods and cities, but you gotta understand, fuck the crime shit. Imagine you just have your neighborhood and a casino lands there. Now it's, you live in a tourist attraction, which was once your neighborhood. Like, fuck the crime part. Like now, come on. Walking outside to a casino? Listen, I get it.
But if we're going to do that, we got to say the same thing about them opening up a Starbucks on every corner. I don't disagree. sugar's killing niggas like how ray j said asses are being taken at rates that nobody has ever seen like the connection i'm just i'm just saying sugar sugar ray j got that statistic listen man i don't know what ray j know he just know asses of ray j census on things
I'm just saying, man, if we're going to say that about a casino, we got to say it about Starbucks. We got to say it about Popeyes. We got to say it about McDonald's. We got to say it about all of this shit that's giving niggas high blood pressure, heart disease, fucking strokes. It's the same shit. Pick your poison. And again, this is going to sound like a fucking ad for Roc Nation.
I promise you it's the most unbiased thing ever. I do think it's important when people like Jay-Z do bid for that because I do, despite what most people think, I do think Jay-Z cares about the community. And if he is going... to do a capitalistic move. We know him to be a capitalist, a great businessman. He's also going to make sure that the neighborhood's not completely fucked.
And I've seen that firsthand just off the bids with this entire thing with Hell's Kitchen. Nas, I think, is one of those people, too, that does care. Yeah, of course, they're capitalists. I'm on the side of believing that Nas and Jake care about their communities. I prefer people like that instead of just... all the CEOs that they showed in that Nas trailer.
Like, all right, maybe somebody that cares about the community is in that boardroom. Yeah, just get one of us in the boardroom, man. Because it's going to go up regardless.

The Yelp reviews that I left off this is a lot of men bragging about what they did for their bitches. In the restaurant, yeah. Yeah. That's crazy. Like, all this shit, I was like, it wouldn't even be fun because it sounds like straight-up bars. Yeah. That shit sounds like Hove lines in some of these Yelp reviews. Yeah, nah, I need these in a book, though, for the coffee table, though.
All right, next one, Josh. I ordered two plates, more for the duck fat than the taste. I ordered two plates, more for the duck fat. Just because it rhymed don't mean... Yeah. Yeah, it could be anything. Just because you don't understand him don't mean that he nice. You know what I'm saying?

I'm going to say that's a bar. That's Rick Ross, Triple Platinum. Yeah. Order the grouper, tell the chef, I'm serious. All right, we getting to the last five. Now I feel like we should do head-to-head pause. Okay.
Because you guys have... Nick smoked you in the first half, but you've definitely redeemed yourself. All right. Oh, and it's easy from all now. I ate some well-done seared scallops that were to die for. That's Drake, right? 100%. Yeah, that was the easiest one. Yeah.
