Chapter 3: How do the hosts react to hypothetical situations involving relationships?
It's over. I would have to, my ego would have to get bruised that day. You fighting a rock? No. Hell no. I'm going outside. I would look at my girl and say, yo, your face just got licked. Here's a napkin.
You want some Purell? Like, I don't know what to tell you. Like, we gotta take this L together.
I don't have a baby wipe in the car. It's like, we could just leave. I was gonna say, what if it happened? Like, if you're uncomfortable, we could just leave.
No, warrior, no!

Chapter 4: What insights do the hosts provide about celebrity interactions?
Everybody's at their office in their cubicles, minding their business. Speaking of which, how come Kai hasn't done an interview with Meek for the rollout? Oh, wow. Really, Rory? What? Meek just put out music. Kai is a prominent streamer. You don't see the connection there? Do they have anything else in common? Kai and Meek? Snapchat filters? Yeah. No. Well, not that I know of.
You sound like you got some news. I don't have any news. Oh. You know when people allude to shit and it's like, okay, tell me what's going on. I feel bad for Meek. Because Kai is being fake exposed as being gay and no one's up in arms the same way Meek was. Well... Is it because Puff's not in the video with Kai?
I was going to say, one's someone being sassy on Snapchat while the other one allegedly got fucked by a hip music mogul. Well, then I would say Meek is probably ahead of the game than Kai. I mean, if we're going to compare the two and their gayness, Meek has reached the top. But again, I don't even know if that was really news.
We were watching before we started recording the Kelsey interview that I thought was about to be like dateline. Man, I saw the trailer for that shit. Man, they had the first 48 music on the sound bed of that shit. So this is about to be crazy. I thought this was going to be the OJ If I Did It interview that got canned by Fox News. Yeah.
I really thought I was at the edge of my seat waiting for this. I still didn't see it. I saw some clips of it and... Uh, y'all said y'all watched it. The clips you saw is all you need to see. This was the biggest waste of fucking time I've ever watched. Okay. So Megan Thee Stallion's ex friend, Kelsey Nicole did her first interview with, do we know the name of the podcast? I do not. No. Okay.
Well, shout out to the podcast that she did this with. Um, You said fuck him? Damn. I'm not taking that stance, but I will say I had to scroll through an hour's worth of Kelsey's background story to even get to maybe the night in question. Like sort of got to the intro is crazy. Okay. I have the pleasure of sitting with it's like, what?
Yeah, they said we have the pleasure to be... What did they say? What type of guest it was? The caliber. The caliber of guest. All we know is she fucked Tori. I know nothing about the caliber of guest. I'm not saying I'm a prize. That's all most women got to do these days is just fuck somebody with some status. But don't say a caliber of guest and you're honored to have her on the show.
Well, I mean, it could be a caliber. Again, I don't know the platform and the guests that they usually have. This could be their biggest guest. This probably is their most watched...
episode right we could is that safe to assume this is still this is a big guest i'm not saying it's not a big guest and i'm not saying i would say no to this interview at all but i wouldn't intro it as i am honored to have a caliber of guests like you on our pod today oh you wouldn't but you know some people would i also did not need an hour and a half of her backstory Well, I didn't watch it.

Chapter 5: What are the key highlights of Schoolboy Q's latest album?
The records they put out two weeks ago. I know he's doing press later. He wanted to do press post album rather than before. So I don't doubt that it won't get the attention that it deserves. I think it's great. I think it's the best Schoolboys ever rapped.
he's rapping rapping on this not to say he wasn't before but this I feel like is the best shape he's been in as a rapper yeah like this was some cool laid back rap shit I think production wise I love the switch ups I love that he gave the soulful shit I love that he you know gave more of the trappy side of stuff that he's done in the past and I was on Spaces talking with I forgot the listener's name
But we were just talking about Gibbs and Schoolboy as being like those two rappers that are gang members, but make you feel like they're cool guys that just live next door to you. Like they're personable, they have personality. They do rap about gang shit and violent shit, but they feel like just nice guys that you already know.
And that's rare, I think, in hip hop, when you have people like Schoolboy and Gibbs coming from where they come from, that they still have... You know, the same inflexious personality the way, like, Mac Miller had. Like, I know that, kid. I feel like Freddie and Schoolboy have that as well. When they're also rapping about shit where typically...
that type of content doesn't allow you to be that person. Like no time during YG, My Crazy Life, which I think is a classic album, they'll be like, yo, this is like a guy I'd like to hang out with. Yeah. Not once. I think he treated this album like this may have been, which I think is a good way to approach each album that you do to an extent.
I think he treated this album like this was going to be the first time a lot of people heard him. or heard who Schoolboy Q is. Or forgot about him. Or forgot about him. Because he took a lot of time off. Yeah. So far, so good, man. Life After Kendrick looks good for T.D. For sure. Also, Sir announced his album, I think, March 22nd?
it's coming out put out a track list as well now somebody dm'd me over the weekend it was some it was a fake page of somebody but they just told me they was like listen man i'm only reaching out to you because i fuck with you fuck with your platform but let you know before the thing pops sir is going to be dropped from tde for some crazy i guess allegations or charges that are coming
but that's what somebody DM me. I didn't pay no mind. I didn't really go back because it was like a page with no followers. No, it was just like, yo, sir is going to be dropped from TDE. Did they specify what? I think, I believe the person said it was supposed to be like some sexual assault charges or something like that. Oh, wow.
Well, I mean, I don't want to say just from a fake page that that could be a thing. But even Punch was just tweeting yesterday about everyone that was cooking up at CDE currently. And I believe he said, sir. So, yeah, I don't know where that's at. But did he actually announce... Maybe I saw a fake thing? No, this is on his page.

Chapter 6: What challenges does Cardi B face with her upcoming music?
Here's a track list. Heavy. The album's called Heavy. He released the cover art and the track list. Gotcha. Oh, this was posted 30 minutes ago. This right here? Mm-hmm. Oh, so maybe that person don't know what the fuck you're talking about. I believe there was a track list on Twitter. I mean, we got a Ty Dolla $ign feature, Isaiah Rashad, Anderson .Paak, Absol, Scribs Riley. Looks like 16 records.
cool well I mean I am looking Sir might be another artist over there that doesn't have a whack album
no definitely i was listening to chasing summers over the weekend that 65 degree weather day yeah it was one of those like i threw that on when i was outside it's it's a that's a nice uh outdoor album yeah no sir's catalog is well hopefully that person at dme don't know what the fuck they're talking about no that shit is bullshit because that would be just that would be unfortunate that would be unfortunate sir is one of those artists that i fuck with heavy and um
I would hate to see something like that happen to him in his career, but definitely looking forward to a new sub project. Yeah. Um, Cardi B dropped. What is it? The what, what if freestyle directed by co-directed by offset and, uh, Damaris. Hmm. Like the, like, what? So Julian is convinced that she bit this entire song from, uh, what's his name? Slump God.
yeah Julian is convinced same flow same lyrics same beat obviously Slum God produced that beat obviously so you know I smell a lawsuit in his favor I can't believe this wasn't cleared by his camp what do we think about the record I thought it was cool I actually really like it yeah I thought it was cool but it's just a freestyle though but that's That's how Cardi popped to begin with.
So I see why they went back while they're still trying to search for that main single. Yeah. Put a freestyle out in Justin Bieber's old house. That's his old house? Yeah. I only know that because I... Yeah. Look at houses online too much for any party. No, I've never been there before, nor was I ever invited, but I saw that it was on the market, that interesting looking house.
And it was like Justin Bieber's old house on sale. And then I saw the video and I was like, look at that. Maybe Cardi bought it. Maybe. Um, but I think it's a cool freestyle. It's cool.

Chapter 7: How do personal experiences shape the discussion on trust in relationships?
I like it. One of my favorite Missy Elliott beats. I can't go wrong with that. Yeah.
Yeah.
There's nothing here to hate on, and I don't think there's anything here to praise. I just think it's a cool record in the meantime. Yeah. Something to keep the people talking and keep her name in the conversation and things like that until she gives us, obviously, the single from the new album. But the pressure's on because at the end of the video, it said, this is just the beginning.
And then she previewed a song that she had previewed before. She left a snippet of a song she had previewed before in the club that all the fans are kind of waiting on. So that's supposed to be the one. And I'm saying it's cool with this freestyle. I love it. I think it'll work for what it should do. Pressure's on now. That next one, that has to be the city. The next song? Yeah. Yeah.
But she said she's dropping the shit, though, right? She been saying that, though. But wasn't it something like... 2019. But wasn't it something like the top of the year that... I think she said that. Yeah, at the bottom... At the end of last year, she said, yeah, it's coming in 2024. Okay, got it. But, you know, it's been a... They said the same thing about 23, though.
A lot of conversations have been... She never said she was dropping in 23. The people at her record label said she was supposed to drop in 23. Okay. Yeah, but you know, like COVID and everything. In 23? You know... A lot of people are saying she's scared. I do think that she's scared. And I think she has every reason to be scared, unfortunately, with the way that success is measured these days.
Oh, I mean, scared of what? We had Ben said she was scared after the Dirk and Kanye record. They thought that was going to be the one. It did not work at all. And she disappeared. Of course, she's terrified. I think she's afraid of the criticism. I think she's afraid to not go number one. That's what I think she's afraid of. She set a precedent that's too high to maintain.
She's going to go number one when she drops. You don't. We don't know that. But even if that... What? The conversation we've had. The album or the single? The album. Yeah, she'll probably go number one. Matching that success from Invasion, it's not going to happen. You're never going to hit that high again. Okay, cool. I'm not against you on that.
You don't think that if she drops an album that it will debut? I don't know number one, but number one doesn't mean you're being measured against yourself and nothing she drops is going to top Invasion of Privacy. Maybe not. Which is why I've always said don't release shit. You don't own your music. Does Bad Bunny top that album?

Chapter 8: What humorous anecdotes arise about past relationships and interactions?
There's only three artists I think that could top that. But that's not their bar. That's her bar. She put the album out. But everyone's bar is lower. Even their bars are lower. I just think that we now, and we talked about this, dropping an album now is almost, people move on from albums so quick now.
So you have an artist that probably worked on an album for a year, year and a half, sometimes two years, and they put an album out. And then in three weeks after the album come out, a month after the album comes out, nobody's even talking about it. Because so many other albums have come after that. Because every week we get- But albums are just inherently promo to go on tour.
No artist makes money from their album. It's just- Promo to go on tour. But it was also, yeah, but it was never, there was never a time where music was dropping. Like, this is a different time now. But to what he's saying, you can't really tour off putting out three or four singles. Yeah. Like, I'm doing this tour. I mean, at this point, it's what, five years or so since Invasion of Privacy?
Cardi could just do an anniversary tour. How many songs was on that EP that Ice Spice dropped? Was it five, six? Something like that, probably. She's been doing festivals, right? Yeah, but Cardi could always do festivals. But to do your own tour, and I'm sure Cardi would be- Six records. Shooting for an arena tour.
I'm not saying that that's something she can do in every city, but she'd be shooting for that. You can't do that off singles. You need an album to do an arena tour. Yeah, okay. So she's scared. But how long- And she's an album artist, whether we like to admit that or not. She set, to Julian's point, a very high precedent for herself. She is an album artist. Of course.
She won a rap album of the year. Of course she's an album artist. Yeah, that album's four times platinum. I just think now is different, though. Because like Rory said, to do a tour, she's obviously going to do some arenas in certain cities. I almost think that she has to do an arena in every city. I mean, the barbers would say, yeah. And if she doesn't, this is what you could do.
Because, you know, five years is always a landmark date in music in terms of catalog promotion. You think if she announced an invasion of privacy five year tour, she could do an arena tour? That's not going to be. Yeah, but she got to put out a new album before that. Like, is she going to the arena in Seattle or is she just hitting major markets there? with arenas for a five-year anniversary.
No matter what, I think she needs support if she's doing an arena. She has to put out a new album before a five-year Invasion of Privacy tour. Yes. There's no way. That'd be crazy. There's no way. And I know, you know, I fuck with Cardi, but she has to put out a new album before we could even talk about an Invasion of Privacy five-year, six-year, whatever tour. Fucking tour. Like, no, no.
There has to be a new album that's out. Yeah. And I get the hesitancy of behind artists wanting to drop after having such success from the previous album as Cardi. But again, it's like people move on from projects and albums so fast now. It's almost like... You want an artist to drop an album for what?
