7 Layers of Honest

[00:00:00] Go out to la. [00:00:02] Comin from the city where no pity is. Shell. Shell. Somebody need to do a song for la. Straight up. [00:00:13] Hello, my name is Elaine, and I'll be your tour guide through South Central Los Angeles. Look, count my dough and smoke up. I'm from California. Where you from? So what? I'm from California. California. California. California. This is Los Angeles. Well, where we going? West. [00:00:33] Mic check, Mic check. We in the building. We got seven layers of honesty. Because a fellow podcaster, a friend, the voice of all voices. Oh, she has spoken. And you. You understand one half of Call me when you get off. [00:01:01] Yeah, man, they doing it different. [00:01:06] Doing it big is like 20, 22, 23, 24. They're doing it different, effective, efficiently, right now. [00:01:20] Shout out to Shan. Shout out to Gigi, that dynamic duo that's kind of like. That's like James Harden and Kyrie. [00:01:30] Like, is. Is. Is. [00:01:35] Regardless of what you think is gonna go on defensively. There's gonna be some buckets involved. [00:01:42] That's what that podcast is about. It hasn't dropped yet. I got inside. I got inside. Cause those my dogs right there. You gotta keep shooters on the payroll. And if any time I need to just play the background and say, hey, hey, handle that for me. I know them two right there. Golden. [00:02:03] Golden and Shan, we need to talk. Because me and Shannon did a show together in so long. So, Shan, I totally blame you for that, but all is forgiven. Fuck it. 20, 25. Let's figure this shit out. All right? We got a classic coming up, and it's not even in the works yet. But shout out to Gigi, because guess what? She did challenged. [00:02:30] It's a challenge. She sent me seven of these things, and seven is a cold number. Y'all want to know what the number seven means? [00:02:39] It means it's higher than six, lower than eight. And that's. That's strictly facts. You know what I mean? [00:02:47] But nonetheless, let's get to it. She asked me. She proceeded to ask me. This is a familiar question because it came from a show that's no longer here. [00:02:59] Yeah, man. May that show rest in peace. They had a good run, but they had great topics. [00:03:07] And I remember this one coming from this show. You know what I'm saying? And shout out to G jizzle for having the. The mindset, the creativeness to say, hey, I need you to answer this. What means more to you? [00:03:28] Or what do you. What would you prefer? To be respected or have loyalty? But this is in three different. [00:03:39] Different. [00:03:42] Whatever you want to call it right now. I can't think of it. But look, workplace friendship relationship. [00:03:48] Well, in workplace I probably would pick disrespected. I figure if you have a certain level of respect for somebody, y'all not gonna go through no BS at work, you know what I'm saying? Like loyalty can only go so far at a workplace depending on the situation, you know what I'm saying? Whether it's a career or not, you know, if you invol with other people, work wise, you're going to have some differences. Different opinions, different backgrounds, different cultures, you know, or just different ways of dealing with shit. [00:04:23] So that loyalty can be shaky depending on the situation. But respect, that can go a long way in the workplace because that, that respect can carry you to a whole nother level. [00:04:35] Respect can get you through doors that, you know, just being cool with or just getting by won't get you in. [00:04:43] So I gotta go with respect overall as far as friendship, that's a no brainer. That would, that would definitely be loyalty. But I think if you do get the loyalty, that comes with automatic respect. [00:04:59] But if I had to pick between the two is definitely loyalty. Loyalty is something that to me help you live longer when you got a consistent friendship like on Brand. [00:05:16] Me and the homies, we've been friends for over 20 some years. Over 20, 25, damn near 30 years. Since middle school. I go in my group chat, in my personal group chat, everybody got a main group chat. Everybody has that main one that was with a couple of day one in there, you know what I mean? And the six of us total, we got history, some dating far as back as middle school, you see what I'm saying? Like my, at the core, my core friends are still there. [00:05:52] Now were there more core friends at a certain period? Yeah, like that circle was crazy huge in middle school. Then when you get to high school, you start to shape the circle a little bit more. Still a big circle, but you start to shape it a little more. In college you start adding your new. This is like your new sandbox. Because this, this is a, this is a, this is a time time stamp. [00:06:21] This is a checkpoint in life where it's a real thing. When you talk about, oh, we've been knowing each other since college, we've been knowing each other since high school, middle school, elementary, so on. Like those are, those are stepping stones, you know what I'm saying? But your college friends is your new, is your new best friend. You know, your old best friends were all, that's vintage, that's all, that's everything. Between 80 and 89. Some of the most classic vintage you'll ever catch was in the 80s. And that's what your old friends are. Some of that. You know what I'm saying? These are the cats where y'all spent the night on the. At each other's houses, ate a. [00:07:07] A large amount of candy and like that. [00:07:12] Having Nerf gun fights, playing Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat, Mario Kart, you know what I'm saying? Talking on the phone with girls, you know what I'm saying? Trying to get that three way. Hey, can you. Hey, you dial this number? Yeah. Staying on the phone late at night, yo, when we had to get girls numbers on gum paper, niggas kept pencils. Grades was finicky. Some niggas was a circle. See, average in. In school. Some was the, you know, borderline B. B student. [00:07:51] Very rare. It's very rare. [00:07:55] Group of that was in that. At that A column. We had some nerdy hood, but 1%, you know what I'm saying? But yeah, that's what that is. That's what that is. Friendship is just. That's special. That's special. That's your friendship. Some of your friends is family. [00:08:22] Some maybe even closer than family. [00:08:26] That's how important. Like, friendship. We don't talk enough about true friendships. And cousins, first cousins. Is that. It's a. It's a different. Is different. You know what I'm saying? Like your siblings. That's separate than a cousin, you know, because a cousin is a hybrid between a brother and a homeboy, a sister and your homegirl. It's a hybrid of that. That's what a cousin is. [00:08:58] So shout out to the friendship, and then the last is relationship. So in my case, obviously, it'd be my marriage loyalty. Again, this is the same thing as the friendship. I feel like loyalty. If you pick loyalty, you automatically get grandfathered in with respect. [00:09:18] So that's what I want from. You want a woman? You can't have my woman. I want Marcia. Marcedo seis. [00:09:27] Okay? That's my first nickname to her. My first nickname to her was. [00:09:37] I think it was Sugar. Then it evolved to Sugar plum Pie, you know, or just sugar. Now I call I got big sugar, and I got little sugar, right? [00:09:50] But that's my dog right there. And then when it's just. It's that teammate. No matter to me, it's Colby and Pal, not Kobe and Shaq. [00:10:03] That was a. That was a. That was a hell of a teammate relationship. They were brothers, but it was. We know what it is, pal. You can see pal and Kobe. That was more of a true brother, true relationship on and off the court. You could tell. You know, Powell's been there ever since. [00:10:25] So. [00:10:26] Yeah, when it comes to. When it comes to my dog, it's like, I just want that loyalty. I want that we in this and. [00:10:37] And we going through the gray hair stages. We going through the dad buy stages. We're going, we're getting there and we're changing, like, individually and at the same time together. [00:10:56] You know what I'm saying? We get more mature. We start a lot. Let a lot of stuff go that used to buy. It's. Man, it's a lot attached to that loyalty. [00:11:06] It's a lot attached to it. And it feels good. It's dope. It's dope. But like I said, like, you can't. You can't get no type of loyalty from a chick that don't respect you anyway, right? [00:11:21] How can you. You can't even get across the bridge like that. It's not even possible, bro. It's not even possible. [00:11:27] Let's see. Let's see the next. That was a good first look. Yo. Out the gate, opening up. Out the gate. [00:11:33] I mean, we. We talking about she on some old time. [00:11:40] She got heat. She got heat. She said the next one top five songs to start a new year. So basically she's saying the top five songs that. [00:11:59] That I'll be starting this year off with. That's easy. [00:12:05] Out the gate. I'm gonna go with Sorrow Sars in world. [00:12:11] It's an afro. We in the Afro beats. You know what I'm saying? And I got this track while we was over there in Ghana. Heard this and I shazam them. I shazam that so fast. [00:12:23] Popped up and I'm like, man, this is some kind of heat right there. [00:12:27] And I've been playing it every since. [00:12:31] Since I got back. But I. I played. I played it 50, 11 times. Once we got on that plane, Once we got on that plane, I said, oh, right here. [00:12:43] Hey, come on, come on. [00:12:49] I got it. Because I gotta give you the intro. [00:12:52] The homie. The homie start telling all the business any. Straightforward with it. [00:13:00] Watch the intro right here, Drizzy. [00:13:07] And you know, you know it. I know, I know. Be honest. Gonna be so mad at me. Cause I'm not. I'm not supposed to be making. Playing music, you know. Cause they. [00:13:23] I just wanted to give. [00:13:25] Put some detail into it. Be honest. Don't be mad at me, man. Please don't be mad at me. So that's one song right there. [00:13:34] Let's see the next song. What we got after. Oh, I went old school, so look for all my 80s. Hey, 12 Cal.

I mean, we put up a tree, but there was no presents under the tree. We just took a tree out, decorated, and just set it there. Nothing under it. Well, my daughter bought. You know, my daughter, she, you know, homemade. [00:34:10] Homemade gifts. [00:34:14] But I love it, sugar. Yes, I do. I do. [00:34:20] But, yeah, planning it. You know what I'm saying? When you like, yo, we going here and we making a payment, it's the buildup, you know what I'm saying? Especially if you set it for something that's like six to eight months down the line in a year, it's like you got something to look forward to, and you're gonna go through a. You're gonna go through a spell where you forget about the trip, you know what I'm saying? That's probably like a month or two down the line, you know what I'm saying? You just been working, going home, shit like that. Typical shit. And then you remember in your head, you see a commercial or hear a song or some shit like that, and you just, oh, shit, we got four months until the trip. And then, oh, my God, two. Two months into the trip, and then three weeks into the trip, and then the week of the trip, and then boom. [00:35:17] Yeah, traveling, man. That's my number one thing. And like I said before you even get to the traveling part, it's just the planning of it or it's just the idea of it. Just put your fucking. Get a globe, spin that ball, and just stop it with your finger and see where it points and Say, all right. [00:35:36] Go somewhere in this section of the planet. [00:35:41] Do that shit. Like, n. [00:35:43] Hey, man, just say, hey, I was able to do this. I was able to go here. Take advantage of that, bro. I'm trying to tell you. All right, what's the next one? What is the next one? [00:35:58] Top seven songs that you play when you haven't. When you having a day. All right, well, I don't know if I have. [00:36:12] I don't know if. I don't know if I have seven songs, but I would say it could be anything, you know what I'm saying? Like, I could be feeling, like, gangsta rap, or I could be feeling R and B. [00:36:30] I could be feeling the album, you know, like Victoria Monet, Jaguar. That whole series, though, you could just put that motherfucker on shuffle, you know what I'm saying, and just let that motherfucker go. [00:36:45] So I could just. Her. Haley Smalls. Like, there's certain artists where I could just shuffle when I could just pick their name and just shuffle that shit. [00:36:56] Because they voice and they. The way they make their songs, like, they have a certain song pattern. [00:37:04] They stay in that pocket. And it's. It's nice, it's nice, it's nice. But that's. You know, I don't have seven songs exactly because I really didn't want to make. I didn't really want to do too much music. But, you know, I got a playlist. I got a West Coast. West Coast Bias playlist. [00:37:23] Nothing but west coast artists on there. And then I got the R and B. The R B playlist. I mean, I should be charging for that shit. All right, what's the next thing. [00:37:39] Three things you do to keep your relationship going. [00:37:47] We have. We advance our communication. [00:37:51] So what I mean is, is like, we're just finding new ways to talk to each other in a. In a more respectful way, you know, And. And. And to listen, not to judge, you know what I'm saying? So it's just staying on top is like. It's like an update. It's like a. You know what I'm saying? Like an update with some shit. [00:38:19] Doing more than expected. So it'll be taking some things that my wife does oh so well, whether it's towards a house or with the kids. And it's like taking a few of those responsibilities and just doing them myself, you know what I'm saying? So where it could bring into more of a balance, you know what I mean? So getting better at that. Definitely getting better at that. [00:38:50] And then sexual lifestyle building, like we continue to find ways to keep getting ourselves aroused around each other and stuff like that and seeing our limitations and. And. And certain kinks and shit like that. You gotta. Hey. Gonna happen. It's gonna happen, Captain. We gonna figure it out. [00:39:16] What's the next one? That was a good one. That was a good one. Top five albums of all time that you can play back to back with no thought or skip. [00:39:28] You're gonna like this. [00:39:30] You're going to like this. I'mma go. Good Kid. Mad City. I could float through that whole album. [00:39:37] Standby. Is that new? Gnx. That's it. To me, gnx. There's a correlation between GNX and Good Kid, but I don't. This is not the episode to go in depth about that. But that's why I got those two right next to each other. Even though I felt like to be up a butterfly. I don't even wanna go. I don't want to. I don't want to go through this. But yeah, that goddamn Gen X is in there off the wall for sure. You got to have Mike up in there, right? 12 Cal Humbra. You gotta. You gotta have MJ in there off the wall. [00:40:17] I could play that about three times in a row. Just let it go off the wall. Sweet, Sweet Confessions. For sure. Bangers. All of it. Whole album killer. [00:40:39] My least favorite song on there is My Boo, you know what I'm saying? Shout out to Alicia Keys is like, I diet like you. [00:40:49] You know what I'm saying? It's all love, though. It's all love, though. But Confessions. Banger still. Oh, my God. He. That. [00:40:57] It was. That's a masterpiece right there. And you had to be there in that moment probably at a certain age, like younger niggas probably wouldn't understand, you know what I'm saying? Confession, that was. That was like the college years right there. [00:41:14] You know what I'm saying? That was. That was dorm life right there. [00:41:19] Yeah, yeah. Confessions. And I get one more, right? Blueprint.

Just this right here. So the amount of times I ran this back, I was wearing this CD out. [00:41:50] I am a rock representer. Some of the winner 24, 7, 365. One CD of 365. What's up? Welcome home to Never Change. [00:42:10] Beautiful time. Beautiful time. [00:42:14] Beautiful times. Man, it was so beautiful back then, man. It was. [00:42:21] It was. [00:42:24] You had some Great questions, big dog. Last one. [00:42:31] Things that help you stay up or go to sleep. Yeah, that's edibles. [00:42:41] They do both. [00:42:43] They do both. You know what I'm saying? But I think things that make me go to sleep, I don't fight my sleep. And sometimes my sleep be winning, you know? Sometimes, like, you ever watch something, Most of the time that I start falling asleep is when I start watching an episode or a movie. [00:43:04] And you know when you blank out and you wake back up, you don't know how long you've been asleep. You don't know if you've been asleep for five seconds or 50 minutes. [00:43:14] You just don't know. [00:43:17] You know what I'm saying? You don't know how far in the episode. You know what I'm saying? You fucked. Now you gotta stop it. And then when you start back later on in the day, you're gonna have to rewind it 15 seconds backwards. [00:43:32] Gotta figure it out. Gotta figure it out. But, yeah, edibles will put me down, dog, but it'll elevate me. It'll have me get up and wash the dishes, talk to myself, make some merch, feed the dogs, do 10 jumping jacks, eat me a quesadilla and a bowl of oatmeal, clean up the kitchen, make lunch for my daughter, get into bed, watch. [00:44:04] I watch at least seven minutes of an episode, fall asleep. [00:44:09] That's what's gonna happen. [00:44:12] That's what's gonna happen. [00:44:15] But to keep me up, like, I know if I was to go home, if I. If I had a Friday night off and Marcy ended up going to bed, like around 10, something, just say she had a long week. She crash out. I go down in the kitchen, break out the equipment, creative juices flowing. [00:44:38] And, yeah, the idea of. [00:44:42] The idea of just creating something and having everything that you need, like, right then and there is. That is one of the best feelings in the world. You know what I'm saying? Like, you gotta understand creative people just. You know when you have an idea and you have an idea to the point where you have us down with so many details and you're putting everything together in your head, and it's like, you gotta do it. You have to do it now. You have all the tools you need, you have all the resources that you need to get it done, and you have access to it. When you have access to everything that you need to create your idea right then and there, that is one of the best feelings in the world. [00:45:44] One of the best feelings in the world. [00:45:47] Hey, shout out to the rap round table. Hey, Joy. Rapping. [00:45:52] Joy is rapping. And I see what he doing. I see what he doing. He go after KDOT first, then he go after Cole. He might say something about Aubrey next, you know what I'm saying? He's acknowledging the field, but he's still having his eye on the prize. I see what he's doing, but y'all gotta stop making excuses for y'allselves, like, are y'all gonna support the nigga or not? And you can't say that we. We whining and my shoulder's not up Jar.

He don't have to look at them like they in the same class. [00:46:38] Because then we gonna say the same thing about Kenny and Cole and Aubrey. Like, you not in that same class. We gonna say you doing more cloud chasing than trying to bring back whatever you think you bringing back. [00:46:52] No, with all due respect, Joey doing what he gotta do. It's just a lot of Mafioso rapping. The vibes is telling me. [00:47:04] Yeah, I see it. [00:47:08] I see it. [00:47:10] We need some. We need direct shots, though, man. After, after. Look, after two songs, just say a name. Put the name on the bullet, bro. [00:47:20] The Subliminals is cool. You could keep those, but throw in the name from time to time.
