okay
hi we are back with another episode
thank you thank you thank you for
joining us for yet another week of the
show
it means a lot that y'all listen thank
you so much be sure to subscribe be sure
to tell a friend to tell a friend
it's a good episode we have a lot of
topics to get through it's been a crazy
week
dante is here as well how are you dante
i'm doing good
it's staying lighter out longer daylight
saving time so
the sunshine a little brighter you know
we're all getting that vitamin d
that we've been deprived of so i'm doing
well how are you
i'm good i'm good i'm excited for this
episode because there's a lot of stories
that are interesting to talk about
you're gonna give some interesting takes
on the topics that we'll cover on this
episode so
i'm excited for that but yes i do prefer
this kind of daylight savings versus the
other one
i like when it stays lighter longer i
don't like whenever you come home
and it's like five and it's already like
dark i hate it because it makes the days
seem shorter but now that there's more
light i feel like my days are longer i
think that's the point like daylight
savings is kind of confusing but this is
the one that i prefer
i mean i think it's it's an analogy for
where we are
in the world right now right like
there's some light at the end of the
tunnel
brightness is coming i guess i don't
know i like to
make analogies positive vibes only on
this podcast guys
unless we're reading somebody for
warranted reasons
the king of analogies is sir dante over
there
but yeah if you guys are new to this
show this show is all about bringing
together
different perspectives dante and i agree
we disagree
but most importantly we come together to
give our opinions about our lives as
young black men
about politics about entertainment about
pop culture about music
anything and everything so if there's a
reason why you listen to the show
continue to listen to it i appreciate
the support be sure to follow on spotify
be sure to subscribe on apple podcast
wherever you choose to listen make sure
you're telling your friends and your
memos and your ppos
everybody because this show i feel like
is underrated more on that in a second
hold on
hold on you forgot the paw paws you
forgot the paw paws y'all tell y'all paw
paws about it
tell all of them cause they love the
show tell our secret fans to listen or
continue
to listen because i know they love the
show too you know we got a shout out to
the
secret fans too right it's nothing but
love baby we appreciate i don't even
know what the word is for like you're
supporting but like you're preying on
the downfall but at least you're paying
attention so that's cool too
i always say i don't have haters but i
always say that if
your haters love what you do you must be
doing something right so if anybody
hates dante out there and
what if they hate you why why is it
gonna be just me
because i'm nice i'm nice in real life
for those of y'all that don't know me in
real life i'm nice i don't make enemies
so i don't really have haters in real
life so it's hard for me to say
yeah all the haters out there that hate
this show and hate me
it's awkward for me to say that because
i don't know of anybody that
hates me or doesn't like me in real life
so i know that there's people out there
that probably don't like dante and hate
him so
if you guys hate him like
i don't know i'm sure every time we talk
about these secret listeners
i assume that there's more secret
listeners of you than of me
but that's the first point the second
point is i don't have enemies because
that has to be a two-way street that
means i have to equally dislike you
and if you're just like me 99.9 chance i
don't give
about you so it's a unrequited love i
guess
i don't know i guess what can you do
what can you do you just keep grinding
and when you get to where you're going
your haters will still be mad so
there are going to be people along the
way who will try to
undercut your success or take credit
for your accomplishments or your fame
but if you just focus on the work and
you don't let those people sidetrack you
someday when you get where you're going
you'll look around
and you will know that it was you and
the people who love you
who puts you there and that will be the
greatest feeling in the world
you can do everything right and still
have people dislike you and that's okay
that's life
i'm never pressed about it because i
just do me i try to put positive energy
out there
and i try and inject that into the show
as well so if you guys
love it thank you for loving me thank
you for loving dante
and we're gonna continue to crank these
episodes out for you guys so
before we get to off my chest i have to
give one of our listeners a
shout out shout out to ethan so ethan
friend of the show
sent me a pair of burberry glasses i was
like wow so he sent it as a token of
appreciation for the show
and i was shook i was like wow man i
have an effect on people where they want
to send me gifts
so if you guys want to send me stuff i'm
going to set up a p.o box where y'all
can send me stuff and y'all don't have
to know where i live
this guy is wild people are crazy
i'm being serious people are crazy out
there so i'm going to set up a p.o box
y'all can send me stuff
fan mail fan art whatever it is that
y'all want to send me i appreciate it
but i had to give ethan a shout out
because i appreciate that
yeah that's the goal of the show people
that connect to you so much that they
want to
send you stuff and have you looking nice
so i will make sure my prescription is
in these burberry frames and i'll be
rocking them for you guys anything that
you needed to add dante before we get
into off my chest
no no you make me have to be the
problematic
one like you just like me i to know me
is to love me
okay guys let's get that straight to
know me is to love me
don't get offended dante because i was
gonna say that dante one day called me
the negative one
and i took issue with that and i still
take issue with that because i'm not
negative you're negative
maybe neither one of us are negative
why's i have to be one or the other i'm
i always come on here you tell me big
people up to be positive
huh this guy i already see what type of
episode this is going to be
buckle in buckle in but um let's get
into
off my chest justin's category
all right thank you julia so this
weekend off my chest
like i teased beforehand i'm tired i'm
tired of being
underrated for the amount of work that
we put into this show i feel like dante
we should be much bigger than where we
are
you know i feel like by this point we
should have our own show
you know success doesn't come overnight
and i feel like we've been grinding
we've been grinding hard
and i feel like this show is underrated
and i'm not happy
i'm not happy at all i mean you know we
get to see offer free 99 every week
and it's fire it's fire no i really do
believe that and i'm not just saying
that because it's my show like i don't
care like
i really do believe objectively that
this show is decent y'all know that i'm
very self-deprecating about anything
that i do
so i'm never going to be the one to be
like oh yeah this is the best this is
the best
but i feel like this show is underrated
and this year my goal
is for us to become overrated honestly
that's my goal this year to grow even
further
to get better and you never know what
will come your way when you continue to
grind
and stay consistent so as long as we do
that you know the road to success
enriches with spotify
might come later down the road but if we
can keep at it who knows what could
happen
so that's what i needed to get off my
chest because right now
the grind is hard and i hate being
underrated but one day one day if i can
keep an open mind
who knows where we'll be amen to that
you you got it off your chest for both
of us
i'm good i'm good so um i guess since
we're
both good for off my chest do we want to
talk about the scammies i mean
the grammys that happened last night
ladies and gentlemen you have tickets to
the hottest show
on the planet this is the grammys
with performances by bad bunny bts
billy eilish slack pumas randy carlisle
brittany howard cardi b chris martin
the baby dozier cat duallipo
john mayer the one and only grammys
hosted by trevor noah live sunday march
14th eight eastern five pacific
and the grammy goes too that was cute
that was cute
everybody saw a billy eyelash perform
oh the stands are going to come out of
the corner be careful bring it
bring it okay i ain't the one
but yes the grammys were last night at
the time of this recording
and the grammys are always problematic
in some way because they never seem to
get it right
out of the oscars out of all the
different award bodies
the grammys seem to be the ones that are
lagging behind all the other ones when
it comes to diversity
when it comes to getting the actual
awards right whether that's the
nominations
and whether that's the people that
actually end up with the awards
people are never happy at the end of the
day you know there were some surprises i
was surprised to see megan the stallion
you know win for best new artist that
award is kind of a curse in a way
because
sometimes the people that win that award
go on to have long lasting careers
and sometimes winning best new artist is
the peak of somebody's career
see meghan trainor um but you never know
so i would you say tracy chapman is
another one tracy chapman
yep esperanza spalding where is she
you know so you never know it's a mixed
bag you could go on to have a long
career or
you can be relegated to just the best
new artist win so
shout out to her for winning i'm
surprised that they gave it to her
because doji cat was also competing in
that category
some heavy hitters in there but she had
a great night i think she picked up
three awards
her and beyonce won best rap song for
the savage remix
and the grammy for best rap song
savage megan the stallion featuring
beyonce
it was a great showing for megan the
stallion so i'm happy for her
and her fans it was great uh what else
happened
um we had cardi b and mega nastarian
speaking of them perform [ __ ]
on cbs on the grammys i was surprised
that they even let them perform that
beautiful moment in black history so all
i got to say about that
that was beautiful loved every second of
it we had taylor swift
you know give a great performance yes
and she ended up winning album of the
year for folklore
anyway nope nope nope nope nope anyway
taylor swift's a
win she ties the record for three album
of the year awards
so we need to give her her flowers while
she's alive just like
the beyonce thing she now has the most
grammy wins of anybody of all time
and the grammy goes too oh
okay wait a minute history has just been
made
breaking the all-time record for the
most grammy wins
ever by any female artist or any singer
male or female
the grammy goes to beyonce
you know what if you asked me to sum up
my thoughts on the grammys
last night it was a night for the queens
beyonce taking her throne most wins all
time for her artist
at the grammys male or female taylor
swift tying a record three album of the
year
and megan the stallion ascending to her
throne as the new queen
on the block was the night for the
queens last night um
it's interesting that beyonce and jay-z
didn't show up until
the last like 30 minutes of the show i
think it's because they
understand that the grammys are bs they
always like to award black artists in
their respective categories of r
b and hip-hop but when it comes to
giving these artists
you know awards in the general field
like record of the year song of the year
and album of the year
they seem to not want to award the
rightful winner of those awards
and i'm glad that they came in late and
also it made some news that beyonce
declined performing for the grammys she
said that i'll i'll attend but i won't
be performing i think that she made the
right decision honestly
because what they do every single year
they get all these you know hot
black artists to come in and perform and
then when it comes to awarding them for
their work
they don't want to award them so i think
that by not performing beyonce was in a
way
doing a silent protest and saying i'm
not going to allow you to use me as a
pawn for ratings
i'm going to attend the show and then
i'm going to take home the awards that
you gave me and call it a night you know
that's the end of it and i appreciate
her for making that decision because
when it comes to the big awards beyonce
didn't go home with the big awards
record of the year went to billy ellis
for that song
every i don't know what it was called
but i don't think that that was the
record of the year
and even billy thought that that wasn't
the record of the year because it's
almost
embarrassing whenever an artist that
doesn't deserve it ends up winning
it's embarrassing for them because they
didn't ask to be put in that position
and then billy ellis you saw her
apologizing for winning
this is really embarrassing for me
megan girl
i was gonna write a speech about how you
deserve this
but then i was like there's no way
they're gonna choose me
i was like it's hers
you deserve this you had
a year that i think is untoppable
you are a queen i want to cry thinking
about how much i love you you're so
beautiful you're so
talented you deserve everything in the
world
i think about you constantly i root for
you always
it was almost reminiscent to what we saw
from adele a few years ago when she
apologized
for beating beyonce for album of the
year people in the room acknowledged
what was the record of the year and to
me
the record of the year was savage
featuring beyonce but that's just me
hey so as interesting that you said i
didn't know she declined to perform
because i thought it was weird i'm like
hey she's there why isn't she just doing
savage with meg
you know but now that you explain that
it makes sense
and then we have didn't uh i don't know
if he did it at the time he accepted the
award but i know that he posted like the
text message between them that mclemore
apologized to kendrick for winning
that one year or two for rap album of
the year yeah
so the year that macklemore won best rap
album over kendrick lamar's good kid mad
city
he accepted the award on the grammy
stage and then later on like dante said
he texted kendrick lamar and said
hey man you should have won the award um
you deserved this
you really had the best rap album and
then he posted that on instagram
so he even acknowledged that he wasn't
the rightful winner
of that category and i think year after
year the grammys are continuing to lose
relevancy
younger people really aren't watching
the grammys like that because they get
it wrong every year
and they're just a traditional award
show that don't like to make changes
and as long as they continue to be like
that you're gonna see more and more
artists continue to not show up you know
i thought it was interesting
because we're in a pandemic and they try
to adjust
the whole ceremony to fit in within the
parameters of the pandemic so you saw
a more intimate setting there was an
outdoor venue where people were sitting
down with their mask on
and then there was another stage where
the artists were set up to perform so
i think given the circumstances the
producers did the best that they could
and i think hosting the grammys is also
a difficult task because
hosting any gig you're gonna have your
fair share of critics
so anybody that accepted the job i knew
it would be under some scrutiny so
the host of this year's ceremony was
trevor noah
i'm not the biggest fan of trevor noah i
think that he's funny
by the way this is random but he also
has a book if you guys want to get into
reading it's called
born a crime so it kind of details how
his whole existence is basically a crime
because
he's from south africa and you know
having mixed babies was illegal at the
time that he was born
so it kind of details how he you know
struggled growing up etc
so if you want to get into that read
that but trevor noah i don't know he's
not my favorite but
i mean he did the best that he could i
think that that's a hard job
to ask of anybody and he did the best
that he could it was all right
i think it was better than some years
but it's the grammys what do you expect
i like trevor noah like aside from
hosting the grammys i like trevor no i
enjoy him
um i thought he did a fine job what i
thought was cool how you talked about it
being the way it was produced i thought
it was cool that when one artist was
performing they had other artists
sitting there waiting to perform and
they were watching them
i thought that was really cool i like
that i hope that's something they could
keep moving forward
you know i think that's a really cool
concept you know it's like hey here's
your
competition and your contemporaries
performing you're up next this is what
you gotta
you know go against i think that's
really cool it's almost like a battle of
the bands in a way
i like that too yeah sort of like that a
couple of people that stuck out to me um
mickey guyton you know we named i mean
we didn't name an episode after her song
but it just fit with the tone of the
episode she performed black like me a
black female country singer
thinks she did a great job brittany
howard from alabama shakes i mean
anytime that girl sings like paint can
come off a wall like she
she's spectacular those two definitely
stuck out to me in terms of like really
good performances as well as
megan and cardi but that goes without
saying
um justin do you want to talk about
performances you didn't like
um i didn't really care for
the country segment obviously country is
not a genre that i really gravitate with
so that was the time that i went and
took a shower no disrespect of course
i just like to use my time wisely the
king of shade
well a couple days before the grammys
this will probably be the last thing
dealing with the grammys that we'll talk
about we saw the weekend announced that
he will no longer
submit his music to the grammys in the
future and that from now on he's gonna
boycott the grammys entirely he said
he's gonna ask his label to not submit
any of his music
and at this point i'm just tired of the
weekend and him ranting against the
grammys
it's getting annoying at this point i
understand that he had one of the
biggest
albums and singles of the year but it's
getting really tiring him
ranting against the grammys the thing is
whenever the weekend was snubbed for
record and song of the year for blinding
lights which i consider a snub because
that was one of the biggest singles of
2020.
it stayed on the charts for in the top
10 for 52
for a straight year and it's the only
song that's ever done that so
he has a legitimate grape there that was
a snub like you said
and it's still on the top 10 right now
like the new billboard charts came out
today and i think it's like number seven
on the charts still to this day
so it shows that audiences are really
gravitating towards that song
and i think that when it comes to record
and song of the year it's songs that not
only impacted the charts but impacted
the hearts
of the people listening and if it's
still in the top 10 for this long
it's resonating with people and i think
that that's something that should be
rewarded in some way
and that's why i agree that it was a
snub that he wasn't nominated
but you know stop complaining my issue
with the weekend is that
he knew that the grammys were corrupt
when he was submitting his work but yet
he continued to submit it anyway
and because the whole process didn't
work in his favor
now he wants to call it corrupt but if
he was nominated everywhere and
nominated for 10 awards
he would gladly accept the nomination
attend the ceremony accept his award
and to me it's hypocritical if you think
that something is corrupt
why enable that corruption by being a
part of the circus
why not take a stand against it before
even
you know nominating your work or
submitting it i think that it says a lot
about your character when you're
unwilling to call something out
when you see it but you're complicit in
the corruption just as long as it
benefits you
and i think that with him continuing to
rant about it shows that he really does
care about the grammys and to me it's
embarrassing your work speaks for itself
an award doesn't validate your work the
people listening to it
the reason why it's still in the top 10
on billboard you know that's
validation enough i mean that's another
off my chest right there he just read
the week and the stands will come for
you
and i'm letting them come you know what
you know what i'm going to be a good
friend and a good co-host and uh i'll
defend you in the comments again i got
your back
just so you know i got your back dante
what's the next story that we wanted to
talk about
as some of you all may know by the time
you listen to this you probably woke up
and you had an extra fourteen hundred
dollars in your bank account you might
have got that stemi
stimmys yeah stemi's for everyone so
the historic american rescue plan 1.9
trillion dollars
was signed into law by joe biden last
week and some people
you know as early as the weekend that
just passed started receiving
their payments and some people by the
time this and this might have received
your payments
it's not just about getting direct
payments to the people it's about
funding on a national
and state level being able to provide
vaccines and testing
for this virus shoring up infrastructure
i mean it does a lot
you know we don't have time
unfortunately to go step by step on how
the money is allocated but i mean
1.9 trillion dollars that's a a hefty
price tag
so you know if you're one of the people
that received this payments let us know
how you're going to spend it
or how it's you know affecting you i'd
love to hear it would love to highlight
some of that
on the uh on the next episode what are
your thoughts justin
it's a big deal i think that it was a
hard bill to get past because there's so
much opposition in the house
and in the senate but ultimately relief
was passed
relief is on the way you know fourteen
hundred dollars isn't just a dollar
you know it's gonna be significant to a
lot of people so
for the people getting it obviously you
know what to do with it so i'm glad that
y'all are getting
relief you know i saw a video of a
republican senator
who voted against the the american
rescue plan
taken credit for it passing said yeah
you know i i was offering amendments to
uh
to make sure that there was money in
there to reopen schools well
you voted against it though so don't
take credit for something
if you ultimately voted against it
that's my uh
my beef with it and then also you know
just so you guys know
how i'm gonna spend this stemi i think
i'm gonna buy a couple starbucks chains
and then with the leftover money you
know continue to grow my llc
so i can leave my kids you know all this
wealth i might go buy the mona lisa as
well i don't know i'm thinking about it
you know who knows
holy [ __ ] you know who knows that's how
we get down at roc nation twitter
yes llc twitter not to make fun of
anybody doing that
obviously people know how to spend their
stimulus so however you want to spend it
go spend it i'm not in the business of
trying to tell people how they should
spend their money
congrats that people are getting their
fourteen hundred dollars and
hopefully more is on the way as we
continue to increase vaccinations and
get back to a sense of normalcy but
speaking of politics
you know there are more calls for
governor andrew cuomo to
resign if you guys haven't been
following the news
the governor has been accused of sexual
misconduct by multiple people i think
six women
at this point have come out and alleged
he was being inappropriate with them
there is a growing course of politicians
calling for cuomo to
step down including new york's leading
democrats
the governor should resign because he
has lost the faith of his governing
partners
but president joe biden wants to wait i
think the
investigation is underway we should see
what it brings us
cuomo insists he did nothing wrong i'm
going to avoid distractions
and i'm going to focus on my job and now
we're seeing more
democratic senators and government
officials saying that
he needs to step down and he needs to
retire or not retire he needs to resign
and this is interesting dante what do
you think about this do you think it's
right to call him to resign
should he resign should we believe all
survivors
well i mean damn like you just hit me
with a brick that's a lot of questions
you just asked right there um i mean
cuomo's political future is done
i think that in the court of law
just like in the court of public opinion
is due their day
right the truth will be found out and
both sides be able to present their case
i believe i'm also a believer that where
there is smoke
there is fire you know he has six women
at this point accusing him of uh
wrongdoings and sexual misconduct
so there has to be some credible
evidence here
in my opinion and i think that if there
was not credible evidence you wouldn't
have the two
senators from new york calling on him to
resign too because
why would they put their neck out there
like that if
you know he could if he did nothing
wrong another thing about is like if you
read some of the the comments and the
stories behind this
it's real weird the way that he tried to
like get women in private talking about
hey come help me with my phone like what
what about a 20 a woman in her 20s
i doubt that an old guy asking him to
help her
asking her to help him with his phone
turns them on you know what i mean
people are in our age group we get
annoyed when old people ask us about
help with technology so
i don't know that wasn't the smoothest
move there and he calls himself the love
gov
so not the smooth smoothest move there
love gov
do you align with the idea that we
should believe all women
i mean nothing's black and white like by
saying
we should believe all women what about
the woman who said emmett till
tried to uh accost her and then she
recanted on her death bed and
that young man lost his life over it
right
i think every accusation against
somebody should be taken seriously
and should be investigated so you're not
with the believe
all survivors see i don't like how
you're trying to
put me in a corner here what i'm saying
is if somebody says hey this happened
it should be investigated and the facts
should be borne out
but if you just say hey this happened to
me and everybody's automatically like oh
it happened
it's over quit your job fire andrew
cuomo i mean not i'm just
because we're talking about him as he's
the example i'm using but it could be
you right
like hey justin touched my butt i didn't
want him to touch my butt
he'd fire him get rid of him if it
happened it happened and that should be
found out but if it didn't you deserve
to be exonerated
so i don't think it's something where
you need to dismiss people who
are accusing others of wrongdoing
because that's not right you don't need
to dismiss anybody
because they felt like they were wrong
but investigation should happen
well i'm of the belief that we should
support all survivors
and we should create an atmosphere where
they feel comfortable coming forward
with their stories
of abuse because we know our current
climate kind of makes women feel ashamed
for being victims of sexual assault so i
think that we need to change the culture
around that and allow them to
have an environment where they feel
comfortable you know coming forward
and ultimately hopefully the justice
system is complicit
in bringing about justice because
oftentimes we don't
see justice with sexual assault or
sexual harassment
or situations like that so i'm with
supporting
all survivors but bottom line do you
think that andrew cuomo should
resign i agree with what you just said
that's not what i was saying
i think that people who have had
something done to them or feel like
they've had something done to them
should have a safe space to say that and
get that out there
but the way that i the way that i
interpreted what you asked me is like
hey if somebody says this about you
automatically you have to face
consequences before there's
before the facts bear out i'm not in
support of that
i'm in support of anybody being able to
speak up in a safe manner
of course if you feel wronged you should
be able to speak on it but i'm talk but
you're talking about
dishing out the penalties before
somebody who was accused of something
has the chance to rebut that i'm not in
support of
simply what i'm asking is given what we
know with what's come out
do you think that he should resign yes
or no yeah he should resign
at the very least at the very least
regardless of if these things are true
or not at the very least he's becoming a
distraction and it's not serving the
people of new york
in any positive capacity in my opinion
so yeah he should resign
interesting i think that we should just
hold him accountable the same way we
would hold a republican accountable
i don't think that we should pick
favorites i don't think that we should
try and
sugarcoat his image just because he's a
democrat hold his feet to the fire hold
on
you gotta let me you gotta let me get
back in here then if you're saying hold
him accountable like we hold a
republican accountable then
he should be able to run for office
again his approval should see the
hypocrisy guys
oh it's not my hypocrisy though i know
it's not but i'm just saying
yeah the way it works exactly exactly
because you don't i mean as far as i
know you don't got cuomo
on the mic saying grab them by the puppy
and take them like a [ __ ] and
when you're famous they let you do
whatever you want you don't have him
saying that
right so i'm saying i agree with you
anybody regardless of
party denomination whatever should be
held accountable the same way
but we know that's not what happens here
when somebody on the side of the left
or a democrat gets accused of something
you know we decide
to hold them accountable um look at
senator al franken and what was it 2017
2018-ish um but on the republican side
they rally around that person and say
hey you're trying to cancel them
you got to be despicable unredeemable
for them that
they still supported roy moore in
alabama 30 years older than these 16
year old girls he's [ __ ] trying to
get with
you don't even have to name you don't
even have to name senators or house
members just look at the president
you know if you're willing to defend a
president like that
the bar is so low at this point that
it's not a surprise
if you bring up anything else or any
other allegations by people that aren't
trump
so the hypocrisy continues to look
itself in the mirror and i just laugh
i just laugh sometimes we laugh so we
don't cry because it ain't [ __ ] funny
yeah at this point it's not i guess
we're done with this conversation
my ending point for this is just hold
everybody to the same standard that we
hold the other side
don't pick favorites and if he's guilty
resign
you know that's all there is to it i
have nothing more to say
well actually i want to continue this
conversation because now i have a
question
what if right on the slight chance and i
know it's a very marginal chance but
what if he isn't guilty of any of this
and he doesn't resign and the facts get
borne out that he
and i'm just speaking hypothetically
here hypothetically speaking for
everybody you used to listen to the old
one
um and he's not guilty of anything and
he could take a victory at me like i
told you
you came for me so hard and so fast but
i told you what happens then
like where where do you stand with that
i think a lot of people will have egg on
their face because i think that
sometimes there's a mob mentality when
it comes to issues like this
before the facts fully come out people
have already taken a position without
looking at all the evidence
and i think that's scary because nobody
wants to live in a society like that
we have facts and we have fiction and if
you look at all the facts and it's
pointing towards guilt then if you feel
comfortable
calling for his resignation then call
for his resignation but if you're one of
those people that
hears some things and call for his
resignation without looking at the facts
that's not fair we have to be fair to
both parties but like i said before
i'm one that likes to support all
survivors and all victims
give them the space to feel comfortable
coming out
and give them all the support that they
need bear all the facts out
listen to it and if it's leaning towards
guilt on andrew cuomo's part
then he needs to resign and they need to
move swiftly with that because there's
more important things
to focus on as well and this is kind of
overshadowing
the stuff that needs to get done if he's
guilty he needs to stop wasting
everybody's time
resign so we can move on to other
stories that's what i have to say about
this a lot of people will have egg on
their face
so that's why i'm continuing to say you
know support the survivors
and let the facts bear out before we
start calling for people to resign
okay so what if a
survivor slash accuser made it up like
how we just talked about the emmett till
thing
what happens then does that discredit
all the people who are doing this out of
the bravery in their heart to speak up
about their experience that
something did happen to them but they
had somebody
in a high profile case lie about
it you know do you think that's why some
people have problems speaking up
and wanting to get their story out there
yeah because
often times it's easy to gaslight
somebody and call them a liar whenever
they're telling the truth
and a lot of times people like to
believe the sensationalized stories of
somebody lying when they're telling the
truth
i think that's a big reason why a lot of
women fear coming out because they don't
want to be labeled in a certain way
well what was she wearing oh oh she was
asking for it
oh she should have known better without
holding the men that's abusing her
accountable and that's not fair and i do
think that that's
a reason why a lot of people don't come
out but to say that if one woman
is lying that discredits all women that
you know want to come forward
no that's not fair i think that the
woman that's lying represents only
herself
that's like a black person making a
mistake does this discredit all
people that come forward with
allegations it doesn't
whenever jesse smallett had that scandal
where he apparently or
allegedly lied about being kidnapped by
trump supporters
does him lying and doing a false report
paint anybody else that gets kidnapped
or abused in some way
does that make them want to discredit
them or not believe them when they come
forward
no it's an isolated incident and it
should be treated that way
no one person speaks on the behalf of
one community
or represents an entire community you
know you represent yourself
if you're lying about a situation then
you should be held accountable for that
and you should face consequences but to
say that if somebody lies they should be
discredited and they're
making it harder on people that want to
come forward later i don't think that's
fair
oh this is beautiful oh this is
beautiful because this ties into two
episodes ago
okay so i i want you
and the listeners to understand that i
agree with everything justin's saying
but the sad reality of it is that's not
always like that
so somebody could have a bad experience
with a black person how we talked about
an episode black like me if you haven't
listened to it yet you should probably
go check it out
really good episode you know if i fail
at something in
my professional space probably gonna
make it two times harder for the next
black person to get into the same place
that i'm at
and it shouldn't be that way because i
don't represent all black people like
we're not a monolith
right i only represent dante don't
represent the black race
on my back even though sometimes it
feels like i do or other people might
see it as i am doing that
it's not cool and i think it's the same
thing with these accusers right
every time a false accusation happens
it's setting back
the progress and the openness in which
people who really have been abused can
speak up and speak out
and that's the tragedy of it all that's
the tragedy of it all
i don't know i think that in the back of
people's mind
you know that could be the case but
ultimately i don't think it should be
viewed that way because
everybody represents themselves one
woman does not represent
all false allegations so you know i
don't think thinking
like a rational person you're thinking
like a rational person like i agree with
you i want you to know that i agree with
you
but that's not how everybody sees it
that's not how everybody sees it
there's people out there like oh that
lady lied about that man i can't believe
the next person because they all lie
just like you know trade the word woman
with the word black can't trust them
because one of them robbed me in 77
so i don't like any of them one woman
lied on this guy
can't trust them you know what i mean
like that it's the sad reality is
is that's how i mean a big portion of
this world views it all
and it's unfortunate my hope is that
these people that are accusing governor
cuomo are telling the truth
because it'll make this whole situation
a lot easier justice can be hard for a
lot of people especially
in situations dealing with sexual abuse
and harassment so
my hope is that they are telling the
truth and i'm like dante when there's
smoke
there's fire and unfortunately sometimes
when there's smoke
there's nothing there to be seen in some
situations but
i don't know that might not be the case
with this situation but
support all victims and survivors
that'll be my tagline for this story
give them the support so that they feel
comfortable coming forward because some
people might say well why are they just
doing this now
i've never been abused i've never been
sexually harassed so i can't speak
on somebody's decision to remain silent
for a period of time
i think that if you've been abused only
you understand
you know your comfort level when it
comes to coming forward so i'll never be
on the side of oh she should have came
out sooner they're only doing this to
tarnish his reputation
i think sometimes maybe the thought or
the rational view of it is
when one person comes out it's like wow
she's so brave it makes me want to tell
my story
so it's a chain reaction and it's
unfortunate that there's a chain to even
begin with because
one issue of abuse should be enough but
for a lot of men out there that are
abusers
it's not enough they want to abuse as
many people as possible because they
think that they can get away with it
but if andrew cuomo is guilty the hope
is that he's held accountable for his
actions
he resigns and we move on i agree with
everything justin just said there
um you know how you just said where
there's smoke there's fire right
all right uh play the elevator music i
got a story to tell you real quick
okay
all right we're back so um you know that
we got we already got some very heavy
stuff here and we haven't even talked
about race yet guys like what's going on
here i mean we did a little bit but
now we're really getting into it so if
you don't like the blacketty black
portion of the show
you know there'll be timestamps provided
for you i guess um
oh my god where did these guys start and
other black news
there was a professor at georgetown law
caught on camera complaining about how
her black students are always the low
performers
listen to the offensive remarks about
black students that got georgetown law
professor sandra sellers
fired you know what i hate to say this
i end up having this you know angst
every semester that a lot of my lower
ones
are blacks happens almost every semester
the video call was between sellers who
has taught at the school for nearly 20
years
and professor david batson another
georgetown law professor
part of the recording was posted online
the black student body there who attends
the law university there
you know wrote this whole memo and had
demands that she needed to be
terminated immediately but before we
focus just on that story
in tulsa oklahoma there was a high
school women's basketball game
and the team of predominantly black
players decided to kneel during the
national anthem
and one of the announcers who used to be
a youth pastor
called them in his words [ __ ] numbers
and in both of these instances right
the white person who they're having this
conversation with
didn't stand up and say that they were
wrong they were complicit
in the message because they'd rather go
along with it
than make an uncomfortable situation to
stand up for what's right and you're
just as wrong as a person committing
the uh offense in my opinion i agree
with the floor now justin
i agree with that i think that that's
what i always talk about with holding
your relatives accountable as well
it's not enough to not be a racist
yourself if you're seeing
you know blatant racism in your face and
you're choosing to not say anything
about it
you're not an ally no matter how many
black squares you post no matter
how many black people you take a picture
with you're not an ally
an ally is somebody that speaks up when
it might be uncomfortable
an ally is somebody that calls somebody
out when it's justified
and in these situations it was sad that
the people were complicit
with what they were hearing and i think
you got to speak up especially in this
day and age
you got to speak up even when it's
uncomfortable and i think as somebody
who's not black
the burden is bigger like i really do
think that and it's unfortunate that
when these people heard this they just
nodded their head they didn't say
anything and they acted like it was
normal
you cannot normalize behavior like this
you can't
you can't if you are an ally if you
stand for equal justice
you have to speak up you know what you
do in public is one thing
but i think equally if not more what you
do in private
is more important because that's what we
don't see
there's no facade there to hide behind
you're living your truth and if you are
an ally you're an ally in public and
you're an ally in private
listen i don't think you should
normalize it and you shouldn't embolden
it
just an update that lady that that
professor did lose her job over that
and that announcer did lose his job as
well
i don't know i think i want to talk
about stacy dash now if you guys don't
know who stacy dash is she's an actress
you might have seen the movie clueless
she was the black character that was
best friends with the
white protagonist that wore the yellow
plaid outfit
i guess that's her claim to fame but she
became a fox news commentator
and she began you know bashing the black
community at every turn
and people would call her a coup and say
she's anti-black that she's doing
whatever it takes
to throw her community under the bus
just to advance herself
so within the black community they
cancelled her they said that she's not
one of us
and stacy dash she is half mexican and
half black
so you know with her being mixed race a
lot of people say
it's shameful for you to turn your back
on the community and accept a check
and bash black people in the process
either we want to
have segregation or integration and if
we don't want segregation then we need
to get
rid of channels like bet and the bet
awards
and the image awards where you're only
awarded if you're black
if it were the other way around we would
be up in arms it's a double standard
just like there shouldn't be a black
history month you know
we're americans period that's it so yeah
that's
you know the stance that she had but
recently a couple days ago she came
forward and did an interview with daily
and she said that's not who i am anymore
she apologized for her offensive
comments and she turned on donald trump
she quit politics and she blames the
network which is fox news for
typecasting her
as the angry black woman so in a way
she's kind of like trying to come back
to the black community
she's apologizing for her past behavior
and she's wanting to turn a new leaf
so dante what do you think about this
whole situation with stacy dash
stacy dash is irrelevant we're more
relevant than stacy dash here's the
thing
are you i mean it um like you said
before we're criminally underrated
shameless plug of our show but i don't
care you're listening is she coming back
and saying all these things because the
money dried up because now there's not a
lane for her at fox news
is this is this genuine or is this
disingenuous you know
she had no problem going out there
cooning on fox news when they were
cutting the check
so i mean listen i don't care about
stacy dash
but those are just my feelings on it and
i'll let you you know you take it
wherever you want to take it but those
are my thoughts
but don't you think that people can grow
and change of course people can grow and
change justin
i think that uh
i think that growth and change
are what builds character but
do you expect us to believe that every
person who jumps off
of the losing team has
truly changed or they just want to be on
the side of what is perceived as right
that's not for me to judge that's not
for me to judge if you have the stance
that people can change and people can
grow
who's to say that she hasn't grown and
changed
so she grew into it and then she grew
out of it again
is what we're we're saying in this uh in
regards to stacy dash right
if you're acknowledging the part that
you play to
call out the black community in a
negative light and now it seems like
she's taking steps forward to
acknowledge her wrong doing
and want to do better who's to say that
that's not the case
if you're somebody that says people can
grow and change why not
believe that she's grown and change or
making the steps to you know do that
change
because i think once you sell out for
money it becomes different
i i don't think you get the uh benefit
of the doubt
anymore once you sell out for money and
you say things
contradict what you may truly believe in
your heart or you know you're just
chasing the bag
once you sell it for money it's a little
different and i don't think that
you don't get like i said you don't get
the benefit of doubt and you don't get
treated as genuine up front
you always say hold people accountable
and what are you doing to work towards
writing your wrongs right so yeah she
could do some interview and say all the
right things
but what's the follow-up work let's see
it
you can't just come back with open arms
we got to see it right
you got to keep proving it that's the
opposite of what you said with morgan
wallen
because i was the one that was saying
what is morgan wallin done to change
i'm no no you're saying that no that's
not the opposite of what i said
the debate that we had was about if he
has painted us something for the rest of
his life
on the one time that we know that he
said something now me and you
as reasonable people here and like we
said last week on our episode
we both know the first time you get
caught saying something it probably
isn't the first time you ever said it uh
we were saying that in reference to uh
creighton basketball on their coach
saying stay on the plantation
right but you did say in that episode
what has he done besides issue an
apology
and i agreed with you i said there needs
to be more work
there needs to be more before you're out
of the woods and you're in the clear and
we could say okay
we see that you've put in the work to be
redeemed so he can do whatever
video he did apologize and have his
sister out there saying he's the nicest
sweetest person i ever met
that's great but what has he done since
then is she a [ __ ] forever because she
decided to work for fox news and
said bad things about the black
community if she's making the steps to
apologize for that and move
forward can she change from who she used
to be
for me this ain't about black and white
with her
it's about selling out it's about
cashing in for the bag
now in my eyes you're viewed as somebody
who
you will go where the money is
regardless of what the opinion that you
have to state is
that's what it is about stacy dash when
you said give her the space
to grow and prove you weren't saying
that about morgan wilding and you just
brought him up
so where did he get inside and held the
two different standards i think you need
to go back and listen to the episode
cause i did
i said that i'm not gonna welcome him
with open arms like a lot of people do
if he has not shown
the work to do that i was saying in that
episode that one simple apology is not
enough for me
i'm not gonna do a seminar and talk to
you about
you should not use the n-word you should
know better you should know better and
if you're truly sorry
you're going to do more than apologize
to show you know contrition that was my
opinion
yeah and we agreed then so anyway
my issue with her is not about what we
call coonan
it's about the sellout part of it and
that's just my opinion
all right
in other blackety black news there is a
elementary school
in utah that was allowing parents to
opt out of black history month as a part
of the curriculum as of now
that decision has been overturned and
they're keeping black history as a part
of their
mandatory curriculum how do you feel
about this i'll let you go first
i think that they made the right choice
because that's a slippery slope in a way
if you're allowing parents to up their
kids out of black history
who's to say you can't opt them out of
you know learning about the american
revolution or
you know civil rights or whatever like
that's a slippery slope
that defeats the purpose of public
schooling if you're going to pick and
choose
what your kid is learning if you want
your kids to learn what everybody else
is learning
stick them in public school and they
learn whatever they learn if you don't
think that's the case put them in
private school put them in a charter
school
homeschool them but if they're going to
be educated in public school
whatever the teacher and the curriculum
is that should be what they're learning
i don't think that parents should be out
there saying
i don't want my kid to learn about this
because that's weird
and the thing is why are you opting out
of black history
what is it about black history that you
don't want them to learn do you not want
them to learn the truth
i have a lot of questions because i
think that a lot of people find the
truth
uncomfortable i think when we have that
ally episode i really want to get into
this idea
with white people about feeling guilt
about
the history of white people and what
they've done to others in this country
and throughout the history of this world
is there a sense of guilt
that they are trying to escape from is
that the reason why a lot of people feel
uncomfortable with talking about social
issues
as it pertains to civil rights and black
history
i think that's a question that's worth
asking and i really want an
answer to that because i don't think
that people are ready for that
conversation
um that's interesting yeah i'm gonna
write that down in the notes so we can
revisit that
um you know i'll keep it short and sweet
about it you know if they can
opt out of their kids learning black
history month
you know are we just going to make
school a la carte and you can choose the
subject your kids learn
like hey you know you really don't need
a biology or geometry
or english because you already speak it
so what do you need to learn about it
you know like
it just makes no sense and we honestly
shouldn't have to
no i'm not even going to go there no go
there
in a perfect world right if everybody
had common sense there shouldn't have to
be a black history month where we just
focus
on the accomplishments of black people
in this country
regardless if you're showing the you
know they focus on the same
four or five people every every time but
black history is american history
because we are
americans right so
you should teach the history of black
people in this country throughout the
year
you shouldn't just put these little kids
in a room and tell them
hey slavery happened lincoln came free
to everybody there was a little bit of
racism
martin luther king had a dream in march
and now we're all in this great
post-racial society
no like you just said right you got to
teach people the truth
sound like uh play the will smith clip
tell the truth you know
you know what i mean you gotta tell
people the truth you should tell these
people about black wall street
in tulsa oklahoma you should tell them
about the the dually elected government
that was overthrown by a violent coup in
wilmington north carolina the only coup
that has ever happened in the history
united states of america
should tell them about the brutality of
slavery and also you should tell them
about the great accomplishments of black
people
and it shouldn't be confined to february
every year
and that's my thoughts on that no i
agree with you prayer cloth
moment get your prayer cloth out i was
waiting for us to break these out dante
the moment has came i agree with
everything you said you got to teach the
truth
and the truth is uncomfortable and i
think that it's not a lie
i embrace that i understand that history
can be uncomfortable for a lot of people
but i think sometimes in order to move
forward you have to get uncomfortable
you have to have the important
conversations and most importantly we
have to acknowledge the past
so that we can build a better future
that's the way i see it history has
always been my favorite subject because
it's always relevant
i've said it before the past is relevant
it informs our present
and it builds us for the future you know
you have to be aware
of the things that came before so you
don't repeat those same mistakes
public schooling has a lot of flaws but
at the same time i feel like we need to
reform it to teach the truth
in texas especially we know that we
learn a warped version of history
and i think that it's unfortunate
because there's some people that all
they go through is high school education
and whatever they learn is what they
believe but it's sad because
it's not the full truth in college a lot
of people learn the truth
and that's how they're informed we're
doing ourselves a disservice whenever
we're running from the truth and not
educating our people
if it's acceptable for people to have
just a high school education
equip them with the best form of a high
school education
give them the foundation to base their
decisions off of that will benefit them
not harm them because they're learning
half truths or even lies in some points
but that's all i'll say to that
education should not be a la carte
especially if you're educating your
child
in a public setting they're there to
learn so allow these kids to learn
i agree with you 100 man it uh
i apologize for raising my voice at
y'all on that one
and i just got a little uh a little
passionate about that
um last thing i guess we'll touch on in
black news i mean it's not black news
it's world news but uh
the city of minneapolis and the family
of george floyd
agreed on a 27 million dollar settlement
thoughts on that
um it's a lot of money obviously we know
that no amount of money
equates the life of somebody that was
lost unjustly
um i do hope that that money can at
least help the family out
um i guess it's comforting to know that
his daughter is gonna be able to live
comfortably
and i don't know a lot of people online
were saying that the police department
should pay for that it should come out
of the pensions of
police officers um i don't know money is
obviously not justice but it helps
you know it's funny because i think his
trial either started or it's about to
start
so a lot of people are nervous about
what the outcome is going to be
they got something because it's better
than nothing and ultimately nothing will
ever replace
the life of george floyd yeah i think
you know when things like this happen
obviously if a wrong is committed there
should be some sort of restitution
uh dealt out to the people who were
victims
um i think it's weird to put
dollar amounts on someone's life you
know what i mean like that that's
uncomfortable so like i could never tell
you hey this is what i think the amount
that
a family should get if they're you know
one of their loved ones was killed by
uh police or by an animal at the zoo
whatever
the situation may be because it's kind
of weird to me at least
to put a dollar amount in correlation
with the
human life i mean they outlawed that in
1865 as far as i'm concerned
just saying a little history note for
y'all slavery isn't illegal isn't legal
anymore guys just saying
right um in other news there is an nba
player he's a benchwarmer
nobody of any importance um but his name
is myers leonard because we got to say
these people's names to hold him
accountable
who was on a live stream he's playing a
video game and uh
he was getting his ass busted in the
game i guess and uh
he said a racial slur a jewish racial
slur
on his live stream and it's not you know
going over
well as it shouldn't he's been suspended
by the nba suspended from team
activities he's lost sponsorships
uh from his live streaming and a jewish
famous jewish athlete a wide receiver
for the patriots julian edelman
um responded to him and you know invited
him to come learn and spend some time
with him what do you think about that
justin and what do you think about what
julian edelman did
i guess is what i want to know about
more because i mean we all know like
yeah meyers under like
yeah you said a racial slur and it's not
right what do you think about julian
edelman
reaching out to him personally for me i
don't even know slurs to
insult other people so the fact that
these people know all these slurs to
hurt people is weird to me
i don't even know any i don't know
hispanic slurs i don't know asian slurs
actually i know one
but i don't this is not something that
crosses my mind so it's just weird that
when people get mad
they say these things and if they have
the ability to think and conjure up all
these words
that means that they've probably said it
before i don't know it feels like we
cover
something like this every single week
whether it's the n-word
whether it's somebody using a racial
slur against jewish people it's always
something
it's interesting that he's getting
support from julian edelman
because i feel like it might be
important for me to read what julian
edelman said
so in an open letter to myers leonard
julian edelman who is an nfo football
player says
so we've never met i hope we can one day
soon
i'm sure you've been getting lots of
criticism for what you just said
not trying to add to that i just want to
offer some perspective
i get the sense that you didn't use that
word out of hate more out of ignorance
most likely you weren't trying to hurt
anyone or even profile jews in your
comment
that's what makes it so destructive when
someone intends to be hateful
it's usually met with great resistance
casual ignorance
is harder to combat and has greater
reach especially when you command great
influence
hate is like a virus even accidentally
it can rapidly spread
i'm down in miami fairly often let's do
a shabbat dinner with some friends
i'll show you a fun time julian edelman
okay um i think it's interesting that
julian edelman is providing him the
space to
you know educate him and work with him
to understand what he did
it couldn't be me though because i feel
like more so
with the black community and use of the
n-word people know
better but i'm not going to be one to
sit you down and say hey let's kick it
and
i'll show you a good time maybe if we
had a jewish perspective on the show
they could better
you know have an opinion on this but i
can't speak for them or how they should
or would react
so that's my stance on it it couldn't be
me but
good on julian edelman to i guess take
the high road and
instead of adding to the hate want to
educate this dude
that's just my take on it that's
interesting
that you say that you know because you
know
actually no it i mean it's not
interesting in the way that i thought
it was because you always have held the
same opinion you've been pretty firm in
it that
you got to do it you got to do the work
yourself you know so
i couldn't imagine justin reaching out
to somebody like hey man
or you know reaching out to that
basketball announcer like hey i heard
you call those girls the f and n word
but you know we could talk about it and
you know maybe we can go to a soul food
restaurant
you get some sweet tea
under my dead body you will never catch
me in a situation like that
maybe you can catch dante but not me i
don't appreciate the shade there because
i definitely ain't the one
i definitely ain't the one for that
listen i'll give y'all some good advice
and y'all can even steal this line if
you don't want to
try jesus don't try me cause i throw
hands
that's what it is oh my god we have
two stories that we can get through we
have plenty of time
so dante are you familiar with salt bay
i've seen the videos i've seen the
videos okay so if you guys don't know
who salt bae
is he's that guy i don't know if he has
always owned a restaurant but
it was a meme where he would like
sprinkle some salt and bend his wrist
and it blew up on social media a couple
years ago so apparently he has a
restaurant
and a lot of celebrities frequent this
restaurant so
certain times he'll come out and see a
famous guest
and he'll come you know chop their steak
into pieces
and then using his long knife he'll like
feed it to them
and a lot of people have opinions on
this somebody sent me a tweet
and it says homophobia runs so deep that
y'all are scared to let a professional
chef feed you some luxurious steak from
a knife
and so it ignited a conversation about
if that's weird or not that you're being
fed steak from another man
so dante what do you think about this
situation
yeah why do people always gotta just
like pick at stuff man like
that's my biggest thing on here like
when we have an episode about like can
you criticize people
like you are allowed to like what you
like
like if you don't if you're a man and
you don't want another man
sliding meat down your mouth yeah i said
it that way on purpose
you don't want a man sliding meat down
your mouth then you don't gotta like me
and sign me down your mouth it's okay
it's okay it's fine you know what i mean
like
would you let a man give you a massage
if you were going to a massage place
or did you request a woman i don't know
it's a lot of deep stuff i feel like hey
i'm comfortable enough for my sexuality
if i prefer not to have a man throw meat
at my mouth
then that's what i prefer and i don't
got [ __ ] to do with being homophobic
because i'm very comfortable with my
sexuality i know who i am and what i
like
don't don't say nothing about me and i'm
definitely not homophobic i'm not like
ill
gay people like that's weird that's
super weird to me
why is it automatically a sexual thing
though
you just you said that i didn't make it
sexual that's not how i view it
you said that you think it's weird what
about it is weird
no i said it's weird when people are
like that people that are home of foot
we're like ill
gay people can't be around gay people
i'll catch the gay that's weird
that's where i think you got some issues
and you're running from something
we've seen celebrities like football
players like amari cooper was at a
restaurant i think salt bay's restaurant
and when salt bay finished chopping up
the steak using his long
knife he like poked at the steak and
like gave it to amari cooper to eat
and then amari cooper was like no no no
no no no no no and like was pointing for
salt bae to give it to
his other friend if you were in amari
cooper's shoes would you feel
uncomfortable accepting
steak from salt bae i personally so
i'm a very slow eater like people that
go out to eat with me they make fun of
me because of how slow eater i am
so i like to eat on my time in the way
that i like to eat so you can place my
steak in front of me and i will eat it
myself
i don't care about the show or the
extravagance of it i don't need somebody
throwing [ __ ] food at me i don't care
if you're a man or a woman don't throw
no goddamn food at me
that's how i feel about it so i mean you
don't have you can just bite it and then
take it off and then just put it on your
plate and eat at your own pace
would you feel uncomfortable with that
so you're saying he's holding steak
on a knife on a long night in my face
saying to bite it off i mean nah man we
don't play with knives where i come from
that's one of the first things you teach
your kids you teach them what hot is and
you teach them not to play with knives
put it down on the plate i won't eat it
on my own time i don't need to bite it
off of nobody's life man or woman
this ain't about it being a man i don't
want to bite off of nobody's goddamn
knife
put it down i will eat my steak the way
i wanted to especially all the money you
got to pay to even get into that man's
restaurant
yeah i'ma eat this food however [ __ ] i
want to eat it because i spent my my
coins on it
i didn't know it was that deep
well with that i guess the last silly
thing that we have left is
selena gomez talking about how she's
gonna maybe retire from
music and give it one last chance
i say you know let me be nice this is
supposed to be a positive space so
i guess if you don't have anything nice
to say don't say anything at all
so that's my stance on it we know that
dante has a complicated relationship
with selena gomez
they're resolving their issues as we
speak but when you heard this news
it ain't complicated at all man it ain't
complicated oh listen
if she's retiring from music look just
look at god that's all i gotta say this
year is already turning out better we're
getting shots and arms
you got some stemi so there's some money
in your pocket senate government's gonna
stop making music like it's all coming
up w's baby it's all coming up w's
positive vibes everywhere i don't know
do you selena if you don't want to make
music anymore you know your fans might
be sad and
other people might be happy i'm not
saying what group i'm a part of i'm just
giving you the truth because that's what
