63.261 - 74.415 Mark Lamont Hill

So crying for views ain't classless. No, faking a cry for views is nasty. I'm saying if I start crying, I'm not moving. What are you faking the cries for? I'm not rushing to a closet to cry.

74.675 - 75.056 Ish

Oh, yeah.

75.316 - 77.879 Mark Lamont Hill

3542.686 - 3557.048 Mark Lamont Hill

But in the person that makes the beat in the community, in the reggae community, allow all the artists to get on it. That's one of those beats. I don't think that he's going to give it to them.

It's tough to enjoy it as a fan. That's all you can do. Why is conflicting it both of them can rap? That's why you got to be worried. They both can rap.

3705.713 - 3705.933 Joe Budden

True.

3705.973 - 3724.887 Mark Lamont Hill

It's always tricky. But let me ask you a question, Joe. We love Mr. and Miss Smith as a movie. We love all the movies where you was married together, and now you got to go at it. I was going to ask you, like, I'm thinking about hip-hop history and, like, rapping and shit. Like, if he claps back, what does that look like? He can't. Because he can't come back the same way she is. No, you can't.

3724.907 - 3725.188 Mark Lamont Hill

You can't.

3725.368 - 3725.809 Joe Budden

Who's done that?

Chapter 5: What are the implications of financial limitations on travel?

7414.951 - 7433.923 Mark Lamont Hill

And then if you're not financially in the positions to do certain stuff, it limits your options. You're not just going to Ohio, my nigga. You're going to Africa. You got to do, you know what I mean? That shit is different. And we talking about a high-end, this is a high-end luxury resort that they were staying at.

Chapter 6: What uncomfortable conversations can arise during vacations?

7434.644 - 7454.076 Mark Lamont Hill

I got so many questions. Listen, I done took a lot of vacations and I fought in there when we checked in. Like sometimes the vacation is where you, it's where the shit, where you got to get to some uncomfortable conversations. Nobody ever came and separated us. Nobody ever came and made me check in another room. That sounds bad.

0

7454.393 - 7468.331 Mark Lamont Hill

What type of fight were y'all having in there where you either felt the need to separate yourself or had to be separated? Whatever's going on, it's in that fight. Yeah.

0

Chapter 7: How does the crew reflect on the passing of Ashlee Jenae?

7468.351 - 7518.365 Mark Lamont Hill

It's in that fight and the 11 hours in between when she passed and when you did something. I'll find out, Stan. Now and now I'll find it. Nobody deserves to start their fucking summer this way. They don't. There we go. The moosh moosh. And while I'm at it, like, Ashley had a great sense of humor, yo. She did. Dark humor, too. Good, good old-fashioned dark humor.

7518.465 - 7602.184 Mark Lamont Hill

Like, for y'all to psychoanalyze some of these tweets y'all see out there under the guise of she hates, oh my God, it's sickening. It's sickening. All right, we should all be in better spirits now, somehow. It doesn't look like it. Ashley used to put me on to all the young slang. Who going to put me on to the young slang now? Oh, she lost her mind when that pee shit was out.

0

7602.224 - 7632.647 Mark Lamont Hill

Oh, it was driving me crazy. Oh, you not pee? You not pee? Shut your ass up. Oh, my God. Ashley, we miss you. We love you. See you on the other side, man. Rest in peace. Rest in peace again. If you want something to take your mind off of it, maybe watch Wild Rose. What is Wild Rose? It's a new TV series. Have y'all seen this? No. Starring Omarion? That's not on my files.

0

7633.606 - 7650.827 Mark Lamont Hill

It's because it's on the black channel. You got files? I do have files. Then I got all the little apps, too. I spend way too much money on programming. You know we went to Mark House for the kickback. There was only one TV in the little side room, and the older heads had that room unlocked. Yeah, we was not allowed there. He just had mad libraries where TV should be.

0

7650.847 - 7669.97 Mark Lamont Hill

You were in my basement with a 90-inch TV. Yeah. You put us there. It wasn't on. It was just books. Yeah. And I didn't even see no TV. Y'all keep saying books like it's a... A lot of books. Right, like it was like burning crosses. There were books everywhere. Well, when we was playing spades, it was books everywhere on my side. That's why I didn't see the TV.

7670.07 - 7680.084 Mark Lamont Hill

It was too busy with my foot in your ass. Did you see all the sandbags next to you? Sandbags? Oh, shit. Look, this is pre-K spades. Anyway, no, tell us about it. What did you see on Comcast?

7680.104 - 7681.346 Joe Budden

I think y'all should watch it.

7681.366 - 7690.258 Mark Lamont Hill

I think you should watch it. Did you say on Comcast? The dish. What's the name of it? He got direct TV still.

7690.947 - 7696.674 Queens Flip

No, the first one is free, so you have to sign up for the network. It's called the Black Access, whatever Bob just said. Oh, that's an ad.
