Transcript

Sake about these frequencies. Oh, yeah. Sound science. Lyrics. Music and secret things. Sound science. Sound science. Let’s talk about the frequency. Oh, yeah. Sounds silent. Music and secret things. Sounds silent. Close. Yo. Welcome. It’s another episode. Sound science number two. We’re just still going to slide it in because we’re just warming up. So the thing that this is going to be about is donut brought five albums. I brought five albums.

And we’re just going to talk about how those albums influenced us. The lyrics behind it, the artwork, everything. So, first of all, welcome, donut. Welcome, donuts. Fans. Shout out in the comments. Come on. And you tuning in to sound science and all your illuminati. Yeah. Thank you. Before you start a show, you like to set yourself on fire mentally, right, to get into the mood. I forgot. I keep forgetting to set myself on fire, but I’m going to do it next time, I promise.

So, hip hop, you have to come with elements. There’s elements to it, you know what I mean? So you got to have that energy, that hype man energy, right? That’s one of the elements. And lyrics is another one, right? You got to have the word play. When I say, like, set yourself on fire, that’s what I do before I do a live stream. I metaphorically set myself on fire, because when you’re on stage and you’re performing, you want to be like, if you look at somebody in the middle of the street walking, you’re not going to care, but if you see someone on fire walking through the street, you’re going to look at them.

So that’s the whole thing I do metaphorically before I go live. But, yeah, I’m happy to be here. Your last episode was so great, and you brought up nonfiction as some of the albums and the album covers of nonfiction, one of the first vinyl albums I ever got, and it came with a signed poster and everything. That’s been one of the only things that I still own from my high school days.

Almost everything else has been thrown away or lost or something. But I guarantee you that nonfiction album will go to the grave with me. Maybe I’ll put you on my will. You can get my nonfiction album, right? So that was a big part of my childhood. I got to see nonfiction perform in Vegas, and it was in a tent at Desert Breeze park, and I was in middle school, and this is right when all my friends, we were about to get our license, our permits, and all we would do was listen to nonfiction, the double album, because it came with the instrumentals as well.

And I got to later on meet Ill Bill, which was sick. But prior to that, I was very into uncle Howie records. And later on, I even got to do some video work on lyric videos for Necro. I got to do lyric videos for GMO, Ski for Twisted. For a lot of people that I admired growing up. My heroes who were doing it underground, they were doing it independently.

You bringing up those covers and all that was tight, because if you look at their covers, it’s full of nonfiction that is like the song black helicopters. It’s full of all those illuminati type imagery. Yeah, I mean, I give rap music a huge nod to kind of getting me into all that, because I remember Kill army would have quotes from, like, jordan Maxwell, and some of the albums out of woo would have references to a lot of these things, I think, because of the five percenter aspect.

But a lot of it was pretty deep. And we’re going to get into that, because I’m going to open up some of the lyrics that I remember growing up with around that same time. And there was another really interesting coincidence, too, that we found out as we were talking that you did some work for Necro and that whole crew, and there was an album that I had worked on.

Yeah, I did a lyric video for Mr. Hyde as well. PLR. I’m so grateful for the opportunity. I’ve done lyric videos for so many different artists. Mad child. I did some video work with underground, hustling with that, I mean, Grammy artists. I even was mentored by one of Tupac’s producers, the guy who produced strictly for my, I’m not going to say the word, old, ice cube and all that.

All I wanted to do was be in hip hop, making music videos. But like you said, hip hop introduced me to the illuminati, in a sense. Right? Illuminati don’t want me. They want my soul body. The lyrics, prodigy and Tupac with his killuminati. And what is that? And it introduced me into that topic. It also introduced me into power dynamics, with Tupac rebranding himself as the Don Machiavelli.

Well, what is Machiavelli? What is that? I bought the prints, and I just started going to the bookstore every day. I couldn’t read, but I would go and read the prints every day, and I didn’t understand it. So hip hop influenced me in these very positive ways of learning, but it also influenced me through the social engineering of going down some very dark ways as well, and cathartic experiences.

That’s actually really cool. To hear, man, that you ended up reading Machiavelli’s the Prince because of a rap album. And I remember that reminds me, I did the same thing because in around 2000 or. Yeah, around 2000, I think Shaheen came out with an album called Manchild and it was based on a book called Manchild Born in a Promised Land, about these kids growing up in sort of rough times.

But it was an amazing book that I never even would have known or read about if it hadn’t just been the name for an album. So I think that there’s something really noble about that. And that’s actually how I started this whole entire adventure. That’s where paranoid American came from. It came from a group called Sound Scientists. Shout out to all my other homies in it, Gaspar and smooth and gravity and polygraphic.

But that was originally going to be this thematic music experiment that we would take Jordan Maxwell and Alex Jones at the time, early two thousand s and all this different, like William Cooper, the whole pale horse research and put it into music videos or something. It worked way better as a cartoon comic book series. But that’s where all of this started from. And that’s what I was saying, too.

Is that a couple coincidences that I had done some music for in decline, who did some early graffiti. Yeah, in decline. I grew up in Vegas, so that was one of my early. Those guys would party with my babysitter, you know what I mean? So I’d be babysit. And in the backyard those guys were partying. I must have been like ten years old or whatever. But they created bum fights and that was huge in Vegas.

I mean, they were spray painted it everywhere you see it. It was crazy filming the fight. And I grew up in Vegas, so I imitated that. I started filming stuff, filming all the fights, because Vegas is crazy, especially in the. I’m not sure about now. I’m sure it is. But that’s crazy that you were, I mean, bling Bling, right? I had his album. Yeah, bro. I think I had some music on the album and on the dvd it was called Bling Bling’s Bling along, I think that’s what it was called.

And it was like making fun of a sing along style video. But my music was in all the menu, like the dvd menus. As you surf through the dvd, that was all the music I had sent to. Just. It’s an interesting connection. And the same one with Necro where Choppa Reed, who is like an australian gangster who also has a movie based on him called Choppa staring Eric Bona.

Great movie. But I also helped with the production on that album, which was spearheaded by Necro. So it seems like we’d always been just like, one degree of connection away, even like ten years ago, even when your babysitter was wiling out in the backyard, right? So my babysitter, prior to that babysitter, introduced me into bow down, west side connection, right? So that was very early on in elementary school.

So my babysitter would take us to sizzlers or whatever and play bow down. And I thought it was so cool. But prior to that, my first music was cassette tapes, and it was Warren G in eight dog regulators and coolio fantastic voyage. Those were my first two musical items I’ve ever owned. So how you want to do this? Do you want me to do an album? You do an album.

You want to start? You want me to start? It’s your show. All right, so I’ll start with my first album here, and then we’ll let you go to one so we can bounce back and forth. So the first one that I really want to suggest, if anyone’s ever even heard of this one, is called mood. And this felt like an undiscovered gem when I found it. It was in some bookstore.

It wasn’t like a big box one. It was just like some little mom and pop bookstore when I was going to DC. And we had pulled off somewhere in Virginia, and this was just in their CD bin. And I looked in the back and I saw that had high tech on it. It had Talib Kweli on it, had sons of man. And I knew who all these people were already, so I snatched it up and there was another one called prehistoric sounds, which was also mood.

And another crazy thing, man, is that I end up working with mainflow for a little while. Who’s in mood? Because he had something called Elite Squad or elite. So anyways, this one has. You can already see it’s got that six pointed star on the front. It gets real deep into esoteric and religion, but it’s got sort of like a really classic 1997 sound to it. So high tech is one of the producers.

If you don’t know who high tech is, definitely check him out. It’s got Talib quali on it. Definitely check him out. If you don’t know who that you probably do. It’s got sons of man on it. It’s got 62nd assassin and prodigal son. I don’t know if Killer Priest is actually on this one, but sons of man, technically is prodigal son, killer priest, Hellraiser 62nd. And then they had Shabazza disciple also has really good album.

So here’s one of the songs on it called esoteric manuscripts. And just one of the little. And again, this is 97. So I was like 13, I think 13 or 14 when I first heard this. And this is talking about skies of Goliath with giant walkings walking the lands. And they’re talking about, my body’s a temple, keep it cleansed. That’s obviously like a very sort of like religious stance.

My energy source from the herbal medicines deep within. I kind of related to that. At 13, at the 13th tribe, my turn to be a scribe once again, sun in the sky, eggs rise checking the retina never lies like all of these different lyrics, I remember this in direct contrast with everything else that was coming out around, like, 97, which I think was a little bit of cash money.

Like no shade on cash money because I liked it too. But that was kind of like the polar dichotomy between the options in my eyes. So this was a really good one. There’s a couple others. This was from sacred, and this has got a really good line in here. And this is Dante from mood. And he’s talking about certain priests bear the mark of the beast came in the names of peace.

And then they teach down with police this whole entire phrase. And the whole song is kind of about religion and the police state and everything, kind of like collaborating together. And then this one is called secrets of the sand. And he’s talking about the heaven’s most modest plans from a 7th goddess rebuilding land where the sand is hottest. And then he says the oddest Yorks and Scottish posing like they know who God is.

And this was so hot. Like, I had no idea what that meant when I first had heard it. 97, I’m 13. But now looking back, he’s talking about the OD fellows, he’s talking about the York, right? And he’s talking about the Scottish, right? And then he’s even kind of like making this very valid criticism about they are making some kind of claim that they know what God is.

And that is to have that in just these two lines right here is incredible because this conveys so much information. I don’t know, man. This right here, you would have to. This is before Wikipedia is before Wikipedia. And this is also the type of information that no one was just like, spitting around back then. You actually had to read this out of a book. Like, this is some Maxwell manly Palmer hall.

Like, I don’t know where it necessarily came from. I’ve been trying to get mainflow for interview, so hopefully we can get then. And then there’s one other one called illuminated sunlight. And this also, it’s just talking about how history lied. Troops came around, they had to come in disguise. And then it says, free energy dwells in deep thoughts like wells. Let it work for you. Buy and sell.

And this is that whole concept of. We’ve talked about this before about energy and currency is a know shout out. Jordan Maxwell with the whole aspect of maritime law and mercantilism just being a way to channel energy around. And that’s exactly what we’re talking about here. Energy deep in thoughts like wells. That’s like that loosh energy, right? And it basically just gets translated into the normal economic system.

But it’s this line here of like, let it work for you. Buy and sell. I don’t know, maybe I’m reading way too deep into this, but I really do feel that this is an incredibly deep album that got heavily slept on because I don’t know if it got, like, major airplay from anybody. Yeah, I didn’t hear about it. Well, you did now you got no excuses to not go and check out this album.

Yeah, because when I saw doom, I think mf doom, but sons of man, I did a live video production and kill a priest. I filmed a killer priest thing. I even got a picture up on the screen right here. You could share it. I don’t know if he’s up in it, but that’s me when I was younger and when I was stoned and whatnot. But I did the video production there.

I look so stupid. I’m going to change that. But I did music videos for a group called Vendetta Kings out here in Arizona and kill Priest. They got me connected with him. Caleb won’t even remember me, probably, but I did some video work. It was so, um. That’s like Wu Tang, killer Bees and even I did some video work for Willie North Pole 15 years ago, and he was like, on DTP, he was like, with ludicrous.

And most recently, he hit me up and was like, you got to get up on bro. Sanchez. I’m a big fan of yours. And I’m like, yo, willie is me, remember? I’ll film your music video. We got pulled over and he got arrested. And then he’s like, oh, my gosh, that was you. So hopefully I get to go up on that show too soon. But thank you for sharing that.

That was tight for me. With the music and whatnot, the lyrics. It also goes into the video. The video aspect is very connected to everything in the imagery, from style, fashion, to the music video. So this was my first tape ever. And it was because the music video, everyone was coming out of the trunk, if you remember that. This was a great video. This was like one of those summertime jams.

Summertime jams. My dad would listen to it with me. He didn’t know what the heck Coolio was know, because it was rap. So it was like so many words at once. And then Coolio later on became a juggalo. And then he talked about some illuminati stuff as well, which is kind of interesting how things progress. And then I bought these two albums, these tapes. This is my first music.

And then my first CD was yellow Submarine. So it was my first CD. What made you get the yellow submarine? I mean, look at that cover. Is that what it was, though? Because I just remember in the late ninety s or even in the early 90s, there was a huge push to get the youth into the Beatles. Like, if you walked up into a hot topic, it was like Marilyn Manson and Beatles stuff.

It was almost like you went left and you went into the goth section and you took a right, and it was all about your parents. Nostalgia repackaged like your age. And I always wondered that the Beatles people that loved it, it felt so fabricated. Even when I was in school. And I remember people being all into it. It just felt like, oh, did you just wander into that section of hot topic? And that’s how you came across it.

And I know that’s not how everyone comes across the Beatles, but it was this interesting sort of dynamic at the time. My mom was a mean. My dad loved Led Zeppelin. My mom bought me a guitar and said, you’re learning how to play riders on the storm the doors. So I was introduced to this. I mean, this is like first grade. So it was before I went into a hot topic that I was getting into the Beatles.

But I know what you mean. Hot topic is a fabricated reality. It’s given you that choice to be a. Oh, you could be a Republican here at Hot Topic, or you can be Democrat over here, at which aisle do you. Yeah. So it was chosen rebellion, in a sense. They gave you the options. So everybody just follows an order, just like a lemming and. You know what I mean? But I bring this up because the Beatles, this album was made to program the minds of the masses into the schizogenic drugs of mind control with LSD and the hip hop world did that as well with tobacco and weed.

Right. Weed being a harmless substance. Unless you have addiction problems, let’s say like, you can’t od on it, but you mix tobacco with it, then it becomes addict then. Right. So people smoking blunts, like myself at the time, eight years sober now, but you don’t realize how you get addicted to it. I think that was intentional. Yeah, well, there was a lot of, like, I remember because of rap music.

I think I blame a lot of this on rap music. There was almost debates over white owls versus phillies and like, oh, no, we use dutch masters. Or it would almost be like these clicks would latch on and the brand loyalty between cigarettes, right? Some people are like, no, newports are like what the real rappers smoke. And it almost inspired people to take this counterculture brand loyalty. And that one I understand because I smoked for a long time.

I started when I was like twelve or 13, and I quit, I don’t know, like late 20s, maybe early 30s. But it was a very hard thing to overcome because I’m reading about conspiracies all the time and all these corporations, and they want you dead and they just want your money and they don’t care about you and they’re doing these horrible things. And then it’s like, I felt like I was actively funding it constantly.

Like every time I went to the gas station and pointed at whatever brand that I was into, it just felt like, man, this money is going to go right back into some marketing to get me back in the store again, isn’t it? It’s this self perpetuating thing, which the music industry is like this, too. Yeah, I was a peach optimo guy myself. See, everyone remembers what their brain loyalty was when it came to blunts.

And I really do think that was like a hip hop thing because there was rappers coming out with the Phillies, like bubble goose jackets or they would be shouting it out in the lyrics and people singing along. Now all of a sudden, when you go and buy a cigar, you already know what brand you’re going to get because you were just hearing it in the car as this mantra over and over.

Yeah, I’m in elementary school at the time, right? During all these albums. So that wasn’t on my agenda just yet, getting introduced to those things, what was on my agenda was girls, right? And then Beastie boys right here, they got that song girls on here. But this album influenced me very highly because of all the hits, right? I mean, this is a legend. Classic hip hop album. Paul Revere.

Yeah. And I like how there’s a subliminal message in it that I didn’t know until lately where it says eat me right there. Oh, I never even noticed that. Yeah, it says eat me backwards. In the beginning, there was rap, too. Was one of my first albums as well. This was all happening at the same time. So this looks familiar. What is this? What album is this? Is this a various album? It’s a various album.

We had bone thugs, but what they were doing was remixing all the classics, so I got to learn all the classic songs. Right. Like nwa, f the police. Right. It was in there, but it was bone thugs doing it because I was born in 88. So a lot of music was. This is when it was being released. But this album influenced my life to be more political of saying f the police.

Right. How old were you when you started singing along to f the police? I believe this must have been. Let me see. When it came out. I’m guessing it was second grade. It came out in 1997. So I was, like, 1011 years old. This is the same when mood came out. The same year, 97. Yeah. Because in the fourth grade, like I said, this bow down, huge influence.

1996, Cottomail Kings. This was the fourth grade. Cottomal Kings, Eminem, big Willie Style. Right. These are, like, the three albums that I got in the fourth grade. That’s wild. I’m just trying to compare my third to fourth grade music experience, and I’m pretty sure it was like, mc Hammer had just released the. Started the Adams Family Values tour, and he was on tour with boys to men. That was one of the first rap album concerts I ever went to, was a boys to men.

MC Hammer. Vanilla Ice was huge. Snow was really huge. I don’t even think that was. Was even close to being out yet. I think, like, the of my third grade was vanilla Ice. Yeah. I saw MC Hammer too legit to quit. I’ve seen him live in Vegas. When you grow up in Las Vegas, oh, somebody said kid rocks went to doubt because you got Taylor Swift being a psyop.

Right. But the thing that most people don’t want to talk about is Kid rock is a psyop, too. Right? Taylor and Kid rock, both psyops. But, yeah. So this was fourth grade. I remember very vividly. My best friend, he bought me this album, which was promoting, I mean, dopest album. And I saw the premiere music video of this on MTV. Right? So John Lennon was the king kill ritual, being took out, taken out, being whacked.

And then a year later, video killed the radio star. MTV was released. So I grew up on the music videos, and I saw this music video air in the fourth grade, the first time it premiered. Hi, my name is. And that whole Dr. Dre programming was to be anti father and to push pharmaceutical industry. So you got Cottonmouth Kings, which was pushing a political agenda when you look into the lyrics.

And I got to do work with them as well as an adult. But it was all weed all over the COVID And then Eminem. It’s a Vicodin on the COVID and anti father stuff in a big Willie style. Wait, where is the Vicodin on the COVID Let’s see. Oh, I thought you meant on that slim Shady album. Yeah, it’s on the record. It’s on the. Okay. Yeah, but this all goes into the social engineering messaging behind everything that plays a big role, minus the skills and all that.

I’m not talking about the skills. I’m just talking about kind of what I’ve noticed. And big Willie style. Was this the y two k, right. This is 1997. Yeah, before that. This is gin jiggy with it. Okay. Yeah, gin jiggy with it. This was like the revival of Will Smith. That’s funny, because my first CD ever was a fresh prince and jazzy Jeff CD. I don’t even remember what the name of it was, but it was, like, real early.

Ninety s. Yeah. But now I’m looking at this, the music video. He’s performing in Las Vegas at the Pyramid. Right? The pyramid that Tupac was staying at when he got murdered in Las Vegas. And Will Smith has got a connection to Tupac with. Oh, that’s right. Right. So there might been something going on there, but he released the men in black movie. Right. So, also hinting at this upcoming alien invasion, the false one with all that technology, and then just the two with us with Austin Powers.

I mean, it was all pretty big. That’s actually a really great. I mean, it seems really obvious now, but Will Smith and men in black is, I guess, one of the earlier mainstream hip hop conspiracy projects, right. Because that one got a lot of attention, and it was ultimately about a very real conspiracy of men in black. This movie and his music behind it made men in black like a household name.

That now, if you say it now, people probably think about the movie before they think about the conspiracy. So maybe there’s some engineering behind that. Yeah, absolutely. And so this is like fourth grade, so I’m kind of just going through the history of my social engineering. I’m not really getting into the lyric part yet, because it wasn’t about lyrics yet as much as it was about angst, desire, and then fourth grade, fifth grade, all about girls being cool, being popular.

And then I was introduced to insane clown posse, and that’s where it all started to go down. And, yeah, this is where everything changed. So that was like, the first influential programming of my brain. And then it took another leap of consciousness. Yeah, well, it went from pure commercial. Here’s what the music industry wants you to listen to. And I guess ICP was also very, you know, Disney was kind of behind them in a.

Was like, this feels like a stark contrast from the Beatles. It is and it isn’t. So what got me into the earlier stuff was the sounds. It was cool, it was fun, it was rebellious. There was curse words. It was like, oh, this is so cool. But ICP was different. ICP had a belonging. They had juggalos. So it wasn’t even ICP that got me into ICP. It was the juggalos causing havoc.

You had all these cool kids that were older than me. My mom took me to my first ICP concert in 1999, 2000. So I was a little kid, and I saw a group of these cool kids, because I’m in elementary school, and they’re all teenagers causing havoc, jumping up and down, painted up. And I was like, that’s so attractive. What is that? And then you see this Jake Jekyll Joker card on their tour bus, larger than life.

And then that album was released, and I got my hands on that album, and they got songs like f the world. So it just said the f word over and over again. It talked about killing. It talked about all these things as I’m going into middle school, right from fifth grade to middle school, where you got your hormones kicking in, you’re fighting 24/7 fighting kids all the time.

I don’t know. And it was kind of a perfect. I wouldn’t even say escape, even though that, too. But it was like a perfect. I can go to war now with anyone talking shit. This is an interesting topic for me, because I always wondered if ICP was created and targeted specifically at kids or specifically at angsty teens down. Because maybe I’m just being really ignorant, but I’m imagining ICP comes out and I’m 40, or I’m like 45, 50.

It doesn’t appeal at all. It feels like it is made, almost custom tailored for a very specific demographic. Not that every other kind of music isn’t like that, but this one was almost, like, on its sleeve it was such a very specific moment in time, and, I don’t know, it felt very manufactured in so many different ways. This is a very interesting topic. But ICP, they did such a good service to hip hop.

They don’t get the credentials, but they will in the future. They introduced all the juggalos and audience to Bushwick Bill, ghetto boys, two live crew. Just stuff that a twelve year old wouldn’t know about at their concert into that whole hip hop realm. So they did a good history lesson with it all. And around this same time as when juvenile right here came out, so it was ICP and juvie juvenile.

This was just as influential as anything else. Whoa, whoa, whoa, back up. No, that was the bad juvenile joke. Do you remember this album, 400 degrees? Of course. Right? This was back that thing up. Yes. So this is back that ass up, right? Back that thing up. My bad. What’s up? There was another song, too, where he said, like, at the end of every single line, I just can’t remember what that one was.

That’s you with that badass band, son. That’s you that can’t for old lady because you keep dodging a friend, son. You want to go to one, you can’t pay that child support. That one. That nerve. You ain’t got a chance to say a word. I ain’t no tripping. Anybody got them birds on? Yeah, we got some bars out of donut. No one knew if it was going to happen, but it happened.

The craziest thing about that song is I know all the lyrics to that song. Dopest song ever. But it’s like one of the realest songs ever, too. He’s talking about real issues that you don’t know about until you kind of grow up. That’s you with that badass band, son. That’s you that can’t keep old lady because you keep fucking no friends. No, that’s a good point, man. A lot of these songs, they became little earworms, right? And they had flashy music videos, and it turned into, again, hot topics sort of things.

But if you go and you actually look at the lyrics, especially now, and you rewind it back, it was pretty intense, man. Especially for a little eleven year old donut to be singing along to. It was pre bar mitzvah. Because I remember I would listen to this and I would walk the temple after school. I went to school and I walked the temple after it, and I would show the rabbis this juvenile, and they would listen and they’d be like, what the heck are you listening to? So I was a kid, but this is after this.

400 degrees. Lil Wayne, he dropped 500 degrees, right? A little bit hotter than juvies. And Lil Wayne, he was in back that ass up with this album, and he’s the guy who created the word bling bling. And in back that ass up, he created drop a like is hot. Drop a like is hot, right, that snoop Dogg took. And that’s probably the most popular song. They’ll play that song at a wedding when the pimps in the crib now, drop a like is hot.

Drop a like is hot. That’s Lil Wayne. There we go. That’s Lil Wayne, though. He came up with that when he was like twelve or 13 or 14. I think it’s wild, too, that they never copyrighted or trademarked that whole bling bling phrase and it became part of everybody’s vernacular. Well, I guess a small demographics vernacular. For the next five to six years, that was everywhere, man. And people still know what bling means in terms of jewelry within a hip hop context, I think largely just because of that song.

It’s wild how these rap songs in particular end up creating new words that end up in the dictionary and then people start using it later on. Imagine Lil Wayne, or I guess, shout out to Pukey Pete. But it was actually what, baby invented it, either or, right? Like this came out of the hot boys. Like the hot boys now have a word in the dictionary. Or because of the hot boys, there’s a new word in the dictionary that’s wild that we live in that reality.

Yeah. And Lil Wayne is interesting, too, because my life went from, I wanted to be cool grad, cool music, stoner music. And this is like, prior to me doing drugs or drinking, you know what I mean? I’m listening to this music and it was awesome. ICP, I was sober, I was a kid, I was sober, and then eventually I wasn’t. But do you blame music at all? Do you blame music for your interest in dabbling? I definitely had an influence in it, but I don’t blame it for it, but it has its purpose in each genre.

So hip hop, they do different drugs than rock and rollers. People drink different beers, people take different. The kids today, they’re on pharmaceuticals, so it’s all about heroin, synthetic heroin for kids, that’s like, today. And that’s why they’re all, like, falling asleep. And it reflects in the music. So if you listen to the music today, you won’t relate to it if you’re not on those substances, kind of, like, chopped and screwed.

Chopped and screwed is all about being on a certain heroin to be into it. Yeah, that’s that coding. Shout out dj screw. That was actually another weird detour that I had in music, because when I joined the military, I got shipped off to San Antonio. Even after basic training, I stayed in San Antonio. And right around San Antonio, I found out that that’s where Cypress Hill had gotten big.

And then you go out into the Houston areas, and that was all, like, screwville. That was when baby bash and Paul wall and, you know, he had his phone number out on everything. They were huge at. That was another really interesting specific moment in. Yeah, yeah, well, that’s why I got my Gucci shades all up in my braids when I escalated. The whole reason I wear these glasses, because of still tipping off, um, with that Mike Jones, slim thug mostly, though.

So, Lil Wayne, this is kind of an interesting thing, because I went from Vegas to moving to a whole new town at 17, senior year in high school, and I remember moving to Arizona, and it wasn’t, like, in decline, right? Bum fights. It wasn’t as violent here in Arizona. So you can go to a house party and not worry about seeing people get put in the hospital. Arizona was awesome.

They had keggers. I was introduced to hieroglyphics. Del the funky homo sapien. People had a genuine love for hip hop out here in Arizona, in Las Vegas. It was just a tool for warfare. That’s what it felt like. It was a tool you listen to to go to war with society. Everything was about power and fighting and whatever. And when I was in Arizona, I was getting introduced to all this different hip hop.

Everybody freestyling, everybody. It was really cool. And the big two freestylers was Cassidy and Lil Wayne. And I was like, man, that’s some mainstream. I was juggalo. I was like, f anything mainstream. That’s kind of hard to do, though, man, because you think that you’re saying f everything mainstream, and then you end up getting an album, and it’s just, like, produced by. It’s just a little ancillary thing, right.

It’s the counterculture version of the mainstream that the mainstream still has all sorts of control over. Absolutely. But this is 17 year old me. This is over 20 years ago. And I was just in this fake phase in my head. And then I got introduced. One of my best friends. He was like, gangster. He’s dead now, rest in peace. But he was the best freestyler ever. And he had my back, too.

A lot of so, like, we were really close. And then he’s like, oh, I listen to Lil Wayne. And I giggled. I’m like, lil Wayne what? And he’s like, nah, listen to his lyrics. He doesn’t even cuss. Because he was a kid, his mom wouldn’t let him cuss on the records. I like that you have to have skill to do that. And so I started listening to him and then this album came out when I was a senior and it was like I was watching a movie or something.

And then I became a huge. I didn’t. I never liked Lil Wayne until by my own fault, but I didn’t like anything that he put out because of the whole hot boys thing. It was so antithetical to the music that I thought was superior, right? Like the underground, like all of the woo affiliates and very hard east coast. And it took a long time. And it was only after I started hearing remixes and got like a few little Wayne phrases in my ear.

And then, ironically, it was a song he had with Kodak Black and they’re talking about he’s got like a neutron on his pinky. I can’t remember the name of the song, but that one got stuck in my head so hard that I had to go back through and re listen to some of the Lil Wayne catalog and got like a new appreciation for it’s. He’s a very polarizing figure.

Even when he had first come out in the Hot Boys, it was still like a very polarizing sound. It was almost like either he’s on some next level. Like he’s either transcendent or this is like the worst music that’s ever been released. It was like one of those two options. Yeah, well, his lyrics are. He’s one of the greatest lyricists and it sounds funny for. And I understand if someone’s like, what are you talking about? Anyone who is into Lil Wayne and rap, they’ll know he’s got skills.

That’s true. I retract all of the hate that I had in the late ninety s and early two thousand s for Lil Wayne, and I became the biggest Lil Wayne fan ever. He was all about making that paper and his lyrics painted a picture. And every time you would listen to him, it would go from one picture to another picture to another picture. And he comes off like I’m just freestyling.

He’s coming off like I don’t work hard. And most of these rappers, they do this. Especially Lil Wayne comes off like he’s not putting in any effort. And this is a magician’s trick where they do all this hard work. They’re working hard. They’re riding. They got skills. They’re practicing. Lil Wayne would go through every single mixtape. He would drop free mixtapes. He would get all the top songs and redo their raps, rewrite them.

But he would say it was a freestyle, but it wasn’t. He just said that, in my opinion, and I’m pretty sure I’m correct. I don’t think anything’s a freestyle. I’ve worked with enough artists that I don’t believe freestyles exist. I mean, it gets, like, a semantic debate. It is a semantic debate, but there’s some freestyles, though. But it comes with writing and practice, too. I guess in my mind, it’s more of, like, people have a whole bunch of little prearranged snippets, right? And they can quickly rearrange those snippets in their mind.

But if you hang out with one rapper for long enough, and I say long enough, it’s probably like a month or two, and go and listen to them do a whole bunch of different freestyle battle sessions. I would say a large majority, like 90%. Plus, you’re going to hear the same little phrases thrown out here and there and rearranged, which I feel like there’s no way around that.

But kind of like you’re saying there’s a huge part of this to make it seem effortless or make it seem like it’s always just, like, straight off the dome. Yeah. So the magician’s trick is that the rappers make it seem like they’re just hanging out, smoking, and doing nothing. No. Lil Wayne, he was working the. He got the nice body, right? You know what I mean? He got the Bentley.

He put the work in, working out, skateboarding, whatever it was, writing, putting out free mixtapes, studying all the other rappers taking risks in music. But when you see them on the music video, they’re just like, yeah, they’re not doing anything, but they’re putting in a lot of hard work. But it doesn’t seem like that. That’s the trick. And he’s got this lyric I could go into, lyric that I really like.

He said, yeah, I don’t want all the big screen. He said, birdman, put him in the trash can. Leave him outside your door. I’m your trash man. I’m staying. Lion up the hash and riding in my jag. You will see a gas mask, man, you snake, stop hiding in the grass or the chopper blade will come down and put them blades in your ass. You homo gain aids in the ass while the young dude here trying to get paid in advance I’m staying on my grizzly I’m a bona fide hustler play with me or play with me I’ll go find your mother so what I liked about that, obviously, I don’t condone any of the things that he was saying or anything, but the way that he went from image to image was genius.

Where he says, birdman, who was his mentor, Birdman, put him in the trash can, right? So chopping up a dead body, putting in the trash can, leave him outside of your door I’m your trash man. I’m here to be a service to dispose the body. So he goes from Birdman, put him in a trash can, leave him outside of your door I’m your trash man I’m steady lighting up the hash and riding in my jag you’ll need a gas mask man.

So he went from going to the place, so it was like all images in my head. It was just so amazing. Not everyone in the comments is an absolute fan of rap. And that’s okay. No, for sure. We’re going over rap. If you want to go over down to the punk thing. I’ve been in punk, hardcore. I’m a big into music, but we’re doing hip hop today. We’ll get into all the different what’s.

I remember Lil John coming out onto the scene and this was another one, man, that it hurt because I guess at this time, too, I was actively trying to make something in the music industry. This was right around when I started getting music placed on MTV and adult swim and stuff, like the little bumpers between the cartoons. So I felt like I was just starting to get a little bit of traction.

And all we needed was a little bit of attention and work with the right artist. And Lil John, at this exact moment was like, blowing up. His music was getting incredibly popular in all the clubs and the radio stations, and it almost felt like this was the God you wanted to box with. You know what I mean? At least in terms of just like, the sheer amount of airplane and attention it was getting.

And it made me a hater a little bit of Lil John because it felt like it wasn’t as noble, you know what I mean? Like in a really cheesy was a. I was a junior in high school when this album came out, and this has a huge effect on the culture. When this came out, this was a huge power, dynamic shift of the branding of the drugs to be utilized for the youth, for high school kids going into.

And because that’s who’s going to influence. Like, I was influenced by the older juggalos. This is going to influence the younger crowd. Then Lil John turns out to rock the vote to influence the vote. So it’s all connected in the power dynamic, even the symbolism of here. He’s on the checkerboards, but he is a tarot card. Right? This is tarot imagery. So there’s symbolism that shows that it’s much deeper than just getting crunk.

But when this album came out, it was nuts. It was like. It was just, like, cussing. It was just crazy. And I just remember the vibe of it in my high school in Vegas, people were getting wild when this came out. They would play it in class and people jumping on desk, you could see something was happening. Do you think Lil John had anything to do with this being symbolic, or do you think this was like the graphic designer? This was definitely a power dynamic at play.

I mean, you had usher, who opens the super bowl. You have ice cube, and he’s, I believe, come out to talk about the CIA connections with that. This was a mixtape of all the biggest. And, like, how you said how it was being pushed. It was absolutely a psyop, but it was fun. It was a fun psyop for a high school kid. Okay. Yeah, I know. It’s not intelligent lyrics at all.

Like, nonfiction, not everything has to be, because I remember, too, that nonfiction in particular, along with a host of other music, kind of got classified as, like, backpack rap. Like, this was backpacker underground stuff. And it usually you could tell by the amount of syllables that would be in a word or just the topic that they would kind of rap about the difference between this underground backpack versus.

Because there was even underground versions of Lil John, and you would even say DJ screw for a really long time. That was underground until it wasn’t anymore. You know what I mean? But it was a little different than the difference between nonfiction style underground. And they were talking about conspiracies, black helicopters, all that. So I’m happy. And all I listen to now, I’m talking about my life, you know what I mean? But the only rap I listen to now is, I guess it’s considered backpack rap, right? It’s got to be lyrics.

I’m all about lyrics and aggression, so it’s got to be aggressive. Yeah. I want to know about Esham. I never really listened to Esham, but I know he was tangential to a lot of the artists that I did listen to. Yeah. So another full circle. That’s why all the stuff that it all connects, because you wouldn’t have Eminem, right. Without Esham the unholy. You wouldn’t have ICP without Esham.

Esham. This album right here is Bruce Wayne. And it was all about hustling and all about making money. And I was so sick of school at 15, I stopped going and I would leave and I would listen to this album. That’s all I did. That’s what I did for school, was this album. What year has this album come out? This album came out a long time ago. So it was an older album.

It was Gotham City, 87, but it came out 97. Okay. Yeah. So I really like this album. That’s why a lot of the albums we brought up today have all been 1997. Yeah. And I don’t really listen to these albums much anymore. This is teenager Alex. You know what I mean? If you put this on now, what kind of mood does it put you in? Do you want to go and.

No, it’ll bring back memories. I’m like, oh, man, I remember that. You know what I mean? But now I’m creating new memories. You have a favorite conscious rapper? I don’t like conscious rap. You like unconscious rap? I like unconscious rap. What I really like. No, it’s not. I like a little unconscious rap because I need to escape. I do so much reading and research, I need to go dumb for a minute.

But my friend, he’s a classical composer, and he was telling me that rap music, the way it’s formatted, puts you in a hypnosis. Because classical music, you have a beginning, a middle, a climax and an end. That’s why they want kids to listen to Mozart and stuff like that, because it’s putting the dots together in hip hop and probably all other music puts you in a hypnosis where it doesn’t have that beginning, middle and end.

It’s just verse. You already know this because we’ve been working on a pamphlet that I won’t talk too much about, but it’s a pamphlet on the Illuminati. And this one is wild to me, right, that all of the classic musicians that most people hear about when they go to school or when they know, when someone says, like, I’m a classically trained, they end up playing Bach and Mozart and Beethoven and all these names, right, that are like household names and they were all freaking either Freemasons or more likely Bavarian Illuminati or Illuminati tangent.

And not just throwing that out there. Not like Illuminati this is actually Mozart being in the very real bavarian illuminati and maybe getting taken out because of it. But the point being that so much of that classical, like the baby Einstein music, so much of that was kind of created by. I don’t know if it was freemasons and illuminati, but it was created with this, a structure and a rule set.

You can’t just sit down and start doing classical music. You got to go and get, like, a PhD, and you have to learn from the masters. It’s very gatekeep, right. It almost has this prussian model system where you almost have to get degrees in order to be able to say that you’re a professional, you’re a master of your craft, right? And hip hop and rap kind of turned all that on its head because that hypnotic beat you’re talking about now, we’re talking about an inherent thing that just draws you to it.

You just inherently get into a beat of something. It’s just what makes it hypnotic. Whereas the classical music, it was so much more structured. So there are two different types of programming. One of it gets right into that hypnotic state, right? It’s almost like delta ways. But then the classical version, it feels like it’s also programming. It’s like a higher level programming that is meant to have you expect something slightly different, because music is all about setting expectations and then subverting it or sometimes matching those.

And the matching the expectation is that feeling that people get when they’re like, I just want to hear a song I can sing along to because they know what words coming next, and they know what bridge is coming next. And I think that the combination of those, because now with modern music, you’ve got the hypnotic part, and that end up being the chorus or the hook or, like, a breakbeat is a really great example because, like, a lot of people were mentioning the comments that the.

Some of the best music and those you had the structure of a classical song, but then it would break down and then get into that hypnotic section, and then it would resume and go right back into a natural song structure. So I think it’s all programming up and down. Like no one’s free of it. Yeah. So this album right here, when I moved to Arizona, this was my friend, right? I didn’t have any friends.

This guy on the COVID was your friend? No, the album. Okay. Because I moved to Arizona. I’m an angry kid. I’m punching drywall. How thick is this? Drywall got anger problems. And this album came out, and it’s like, the beats, it’s Jedi mind tricks. So Vinny Paz is one right now, my favorite lyricist. Delivery and beats and all that, all the elements. But he would bring up stuff like, he bring up Che Guevara in a rap or the Torah, and I’m just like, he was Muslim, so he bring up Allah, too.

And I’m just like, just stuff that I’ve never heard rappers talk about in the music I would listen to. So I was like, whoa, this is crazy. And then he brought up Uncle Howie records in it, and that’s, you know, that’s necro ill Bill, like, the stuff that I grew up listening to. And I was like, whoa, that’s so cool. Another rapper knows who that is because, I mean, this is, like, a long time ago, we didn’t have cell phones and stuff like that.

So when you heard another rapper who’s very talented, likes another rapper you like is crazy. And then they started heavy metal kings with Ill Bill and Vinny Paz. So that was tight, too. But I’m just all about the aggression in music. I feel like the Jedi mind tricks violent by design album coming out was a huge milestone for me. That one felt like, I don’t know, it had a combination of lyrics and a combination of instrumentals, and they were using.

Yeah, this is one of my favorite albums of all time, not just a Jedi mind trick album. And, man, they were dropping quotes from Planet of the Apes, and then there was quotes from the movie PI, and I had just seen the movie pie, and that was, like, at the top of still is today, one of my favorite movies of all time. Me, too. This album in particular was, like, this weird turning point, too.

I think I was a senior in high school when this thing came out, and it kind of, like, changed a little bit of a trajectory where it made me feel like maybe not everything was going to be super commercial. Although I don’t know if I would consider Jedi mind tricks to be, like, a commercial success. But they definitely got huge, especially in this, I guess, conspiracy community, which is a cringe way to refer to it.

But this album was kind of directed towards people that cared about reptilians and shapeshifters and talking about the pope doing horrible things in an album. I felt like, man, this is actually way more hardcore than anything I had heard up to this point. And I know there was probably some stuff out there, but this one, it felt like it was like the most modern version of any of.

Right. So. And then this album had blood runs cold, which had Sean P on it rest in P. Sean Price became my favorite rapper after this album. So it introduced me to Sean Price. Monkey bars right here. And just like the album name is Dope Monkey bars, right? Like you’re playing on Monkey bars, but bars like you spitting bars. Because what happened was I only care about bars now.

I only care about lyrics. That’s what I care about. That mostly. Well, Sean Price was one of the best lyricists to ever live, period. It’s kind of sad that he’s no longer here, but I think he was also in a group called, was it Helter Skelta? Was that the name of the group or was that the name of Boot Camp click. And Helta Skelta was in boot camp click with them.

So Helta Skelta is a rapper as well. And they were in the boot camp click. Which is duck down. It was all duck down records. It was. But then it changed later on. But yeah, and Sean P. Sean Price, I just. His flow was unnatural. All other rappers all do the same. Sean P. Would pause and do kind of what Rick Ross would do. Like a who, right? But Rick Ross is kind of melodic, right? Sean P.

He’s just on a. He was on a different level mentally in his raps. I remember he had a rap center album that was next level. Like, it was way ahead of its time. Even though they kind of ruined every single track by saying rap center over and over with those horrible dj watermarks that existed in like, man, they lasted from the mid two thousand s to the late two thousand and ten s.

I think that some of that is over now. But, yeah, that was, like, the biggest part. And Sean Price was putting out a lot of mixtapes and compilations back to back for a really long time. I always liked that aspect, too, like the mixtape culture and was like datpif. com and a whole bunch of other websites where you would go and find artists just because they were on.

I guess that’s sort of like a middle ground between the underground where people are completely out of the mainstream, and then you’ve got the absolute mainstream, and then you’ve got, like, this mixtape circuit. And the mixtape circuit kind of, like jumps in between those two where you’ve got big artists that are putting on little artists and then little artists that are remixing themselves into biggest artist tracks. And it’s this black market, right? Because a lot of the time the mixtapes are using uncleared samples and songs that haven’t been cleared.

And I think that’s another really awesome aspect of, I guess, punk, too. That was big in punk and big in hip hop with like, go ahead and record this or put this out or don’t clear that sample. And that was part of the aesthetic of the song itself. Yeah, I got some of his lyrics here, but it’s just my. He’s one of my favorite rappers. Happy birthday, donut.

I’m better with mine. Sean Price. Remember this time I’m all that jaw tap. Gregory Hans strapped for the war I got a package of raw in the ass crack of the hall and the passenger daw, y’all whack should get slapped with the fall shit like that be attracting the law then he do word smoking, drinking, vice versa. Smoking and drinking. I’m hoping these lincolns act up. I ain’t supposed to be stinking.

And when this happened, I only had a $5 because I was so addicted to smoking weed. I never had any money, but I would sometimes have a $5. So when he’s like, hoping these lincolns add up, I could relate to that because he was the brokest rapper, you know, and I was like broke at that time, so I felt that. And you always got to have five on it, so you always have to have a Lincoln somewhere stashed.

Yeah, that’s true. Right. Maybe that’s what he. So I guess I can fast forward. But this album was crazy. Dark Lotus, I’ve never seen this before. This was crazy, bro. This was 6th grade, and this kind of took my life into a crazy realm. Any juggalo. This was like one of the best albums ever created in the juggalo world. So this is an ICP album. ICP, it’s dark Lotus.

It’s the rap group, right? It’s like Wu Tang. So there’s ICP, twisted Blaze, and this guy Mars, who was bringing the order of the golden dawn magic into the album. And I didn’t know this until probably like a month ago where he did an interview and said that that’s what he was doing because it was like the most brutal, sick lyrics in it. It’s dark Lotus. I’ll check this.

I’d never even heard this before. Yeah, you might like it, but it had a huge influence on my life at 6th grade. But now my favorite rapper is BLP kosher. And he’s got an album. You know what that stands for? It’s his name. BLP is like his name. I don’t know his name. But this album is called bars. Like, we were talking about monkey bars with Sean Price.

Well, BLP kosher, his album is called bars. Mitzvah. So I thought that was pretty clever. And when I first heard him, it’s younger music. I just had my birthday yesterday, my real birthday. And when I first heard it and saw it, I was like, oh, this is mumble rap and silly. That’s cool. And moved on. But then I went back to it because he said some lyrics, and I was like, well, you know what? He said this, and that was pretty good lyric.

He said, I ain’t irish, but my money Dublin. And I was like, damn, that was the sickest lyric I’ve heard in a long time. I haven’t heard a lyric like that in a while. I like it because sometimes these lyrics are like, stand up routines. Like, some of the lines are just like, really good jokes that you can see delivering. Oh, look, see, I got heavenly divine right here from the album.

This is the one that I was talking about from violent by design. Sacrificial lamb that died the hands of hologram send them to the dungeon and bludgeon clan Holy land who spit the last shit that do a die del jedi my shit. Yeah. If you’re into this, that’s the one, man. If you’ve never heard of Jedi mind tricks ever before, this is the track that I would probably recommend.

Yeah, but you got to like it. You won’t like it. Yeah, if you’re religious, maybe. It could be offensive, though. But what we’re talking about is only if you’re catholic, I think. Yeah, but I mean, the way that he rap. So I had that pulled up in lyrics. I didn’t really scatter everything, but right now, BLP kosher. His album bars mitzvah is my favorite right now. Is that what you’re listening to? Right.

Like, what do you got on repeat this week? Yeah, what I got on repeat is my classics that I listen to, which is Sean Price, Vinny Paz, nonfiction ill bill but now I’ve added BLP kosher into that bundle of five. And I even went and saw him perform his first concert. Not his first concert, but his first tour. And I was the oldest one there. Everyone was like 20 years old, and I felt old, but I also felt cool because I’m still a little hip, I guess.

So it made me kind of feel, like, cool. But his lyrics, if you’re into lyrics, I like it a lot. So, bLP kosher, that’s the new playlist. You see, I have this still tipping up here as well. And this is what I want played at my funeral. When I get put into the ground, I want them to have your casket up on hydraulics? No, I just want, like, I want them to play the violin.

Tipping off of foes now look who creeping, look who crawling still balling in the mix it’s that six six lung sticking your chick pulling tricks looking slick all the time when I’m flipping boss sipping car dipping grand wood grain gripping but this is why I wear my glasses my Gucci shades is because of this song. So it has the influence right here. Oh, Gucci shades up in my braids when was.

I can’t even understand how huge that was in Texas at the time. I remember them coming because I worked at a print shop. I worked at Kinkos, and I worked at another little small print shop. And I remember them coming in. Paul Wall was coming in and remaking copies of his bart Simpson mixtape, or at least him and part of his crew. And that was how they would just explode it for Lil Flip did the same thing.

Lil Flip would just go and filled his trunk, and I think he sold something like 20,000 albums out of his trunk. And just because of that, turned into actual labels hearing about they’re making this grassroots success, and then they’re interested because they’re like, oh, they’re making money. All right, I’ll get in on that. So that became sort of a trend, though, and that was like, this whole aspect of people would pull up with a trunk full of cds, like left and right.

You go to a show, and everyone in the parking lot is, like, selling their albums. You can’t get around it. Yeah. Also, before. I know, I’ve been going on them rants, but I would just want to bring up a couple more people. Is Gucci man back in 2005, 2008, huge influence, because the imagery of Gucci man was like, he had a song, I made 100,000 in the trap house.

Right? And that was like, when you have a friend who made $100,000 in the trap house, that was like, whoa. It was, like, the coolest thing. And then when you have, like, five friends who all made $100,000, it’s an experience that’s weird when you’re like a teenager prior to being an adult. And so it’s kind of like, it seemed very authentic, and then it became, in my opinion, an archetype.

Maybe the whole time, it was an mean. I would make that argument that it’s always been an archetype, at least all the way back to Ashbury hate, where basically the CIA was setting up these little safe houses that anyone could come through, and they were doing that to get in with the counterculture. And then you also notice all the freaking ties between military intelligence in particular and rock stars, right? And the same exact thing, too.

Military intelligence and children’s books, military intelligence and cartoons, especially when it comes to american media. If you start following those threads and chasing the money at the bottom of all of it, you’re almost always going to come up with military intelligence. And I would say that all of the trap house and all the rap, where are they getting the drugs and the guns from? They’re probably getting that from the CIA.

That’s the actual source of everything that they’re talking about. Flipping know, making this money and making money in the, like, the actual source of that is probably the end. I’ll end up with this just how everyone kind of sees why I’m the way I am, too. Rest in peace, mean Mac dre right there. I mean, amazing lyrics. Lyrics went so hard, was too hard for the radio. His lyrics and not going into any of the.

Is there any connections to the military stuff that you’re talking about? But just my own branding, because the whole time I did my donut thing, I try to come with an element of swag or style. I try to be dipped in butter. And I got a couple of other ones here, too. I know I didn’t go too hard into the lyrics or whatever, but that was my catalog of influence, of where if people are like, what? Who’s this guy? This guy be talking shit, I’ll slap that fool.

I just see some crazy comments and someone’s asking, thoughts on suicide boys? Oh, they’re very popular with the youth. I’m in recovery. Such a weird. They’re very popular with the youth. Yeah, I know that they took a lot of their influence from like three six mafia and all that, but when they were coming suicide boys. Yeah, I’m in recovery. So I know a lot of the youth that go there like it.

So this one right here, legend of the mask and the assassin, is DJ Mugs and sick Jackin. And sick Jackin is part of Psycho Realm. And Psycho Realm is sort of an offshoot of Cypress Hill. Or it’s like, kind of like you’ve got kill army and gravediggers and that’s sort of like the Wu affiliate, right? They’re like ancillary to the Wu Tang clan, similar to how sick jacket and Psycho realm are sort of ancillary to Cypress Hill a little bit, although they each have their own little fan bases.

But this album in particular is absolutely groundbreaking and a lot of people have never heard of it before. I highly recommend it. And DJ Muggs is the DJ from Cypress Hill. DJ Muggs also did kill Devil Hills with Ill Bill, which was, like, got all the Illuminati stuff up on there, and I think that was similar into this series. This was the first one that I came across where DJ Muggs was linking up with another artist and basically talking about conspiracy theories.

So this was the first big one that I had come across, and this was sometime after I was aware of Jedi mind tricks and army of the pharaohs and a lot of them that are kind of in that camp. And in my mind, this goes on that mixtape. Like, if you’ve got an army of the pharaohs and a Jedi mind trick mixtape, you should definitely add this to it.

But, like, the names here, the initiation mask and the assassin, land of Shadows, God’s banker, reptilian Renaissance, you know what I mean? Like, just the names of some of these songs. So this one is called God’s Banker. And this is actually really interesting, because I don’t know of any other song that exists that’s specifically about this very historical conspiracy theory. It’s called the P two lodge, or the propaganda due lodge.

And this is the song lyrics right here. And it shouts the guy out. Roberto Calvi from the P two lodge got attention from the beast trying to be too large. He was God’s banker in the southeast of Italy. So this is all 100% legit. This is Roberto Calvi right here. And he was legitimately God’s banker. He worked directly for the Holy See. And this guy also within that propaganda due lodge, this is a masonic lodge in Italy founded in the late 18 hundreds, and it was essentially linked to all of this money running between the Italians, the pope, even the United States CIA, gets into this.

This actually, also, believe it or not, this links to hip hop, because they get tied into the funding of the Iran contra war in sort of like, a sideway. This guy was also Francesco crispy. He was in the propaganda due lodge. And the reason that he’s so important is because he was a very close friend of Giuseppe Mazzini. And Giuseppe Mazzini comes up whenever the Albert Pike World War II stuff comes up, because the rumor is that after Adam Weisop dies or leaves and he gets shunned, that the bavarian illuminati switches hands, and it goes to Giuseppe Mazzini, like, many years later.

So any connection at all with Giuseppe Mazzini is interesting and relevant to conspiracy theories. And this is a direct tie between Mazzini and this propaganda Dulge and the, you know, the Vatican bank. So this gives a little bit of credit to some of those really deep conspiracy theories. And again, this is just a song on a rap album. So I get some of the criticism of raps crap and it just rots your brain.

And it’s all about money and hoes and clothes. But then you’ve got songs like this that are legitimately giving you like a straight up history lesson about real information, real names, dates, times. So this is what I really found sort of inspiring, especially in 2007. I was happy that someone else out there was doing what was kind of in my head. And of course, it comes from this angle.

Here’s another one. Operation Gladio as well. Well, Gladio was also related to the rat lines was also related to all this. Right. It gets deep. It gets deep. Especially for, like, a rap album. This one might not be as esoteric, but, man, this is crazy. I swear that I wasn’t planning on just pulling up albums from 1997, but I feel like 1997 was a magical year, man, for all these different albums to have been coming out like this, maybe the next one we do, it should just be albums from 1997 and see what other gems are out there.

But I understand this as the first appearance of Keith. Yeah, as a solo album. And it’s got linked to Dan the automator. And Dan the automator was in the funky homo, Samien and Deltron. 30. 30. He got the room. Two, two, three. Yeah. It’s like one big group of all these guys. And the one that I pull up on this whole album, which is very abstract. So this is the blue Flowers.

I had the Dr. Octagon Wikipedia article pulled up, but he’s basically a interdimensional psychedelic freelance gynecologist from the future or something. It’s got this weird backstory. But there’s this particular song on it called Blue Flowers. And if anyone played, I think it was on one of the Tony Hawk games, or it might have been on a really good sleeper. On the PlayStation one, there was a skating game called Thrasher that I think had blue flowers on it.

But blue Flowers is an incredibly deep dive because I don’t know if you ever seen the movie scanner darkly, Philip K. Dick. The whole movie is about these blue flowers, or I think it’s called compound d, where they extract some weird drug from these blue flowers that keeps people in this constant state of slumber, essentially. And the whole concept of a blue flower is this sort of like.

They call it a motif of western art. But the blue flower represents not just, like, romanticism, but this unachievable, this infinitely out of grasp concept. So this is this one quote. The blue flower is a watchword and a sacred symbol of the romantic school, meant to symbolize deep and sacred longings of a poet’s soul. Romantic poetry deals with longing. Not a definite formulated desire for some object, but a dim, mysterious aspiration, a trembling unrest, a vague sense of kinship with the infinite, and a consequent dissatisfaction with every form of happiness the world has to offer.

This is the real concept of romanticism. It’s not about, like, I’m romantic because I love you, girl, and that’s all I can keep you on my mind. The romantic aspect of it is that you love somebody so much that you’ll never fully be able to express it. You’ll never be able to fully realize the amount of love you actually feel. And that’s what makes that bleeding heart romantic mean everything.

It’s because they’ve got more love than they will ever be able to express. And it’s almost a tragedy in itself. And that wrapped up into like a drug, right as these blue flowers and Philip K. Dick. And even on the Wikipedia article, they mention all the different mentions of blue flowers. There’s Philip K. Dick’s mention of it. They talk about intense C. Williams glass menagerie, all these different references to a blue flower.

They tend to mean the same kind of thing. So it’s a deep concept. The lyrics are all over the place. Highly recommended. It’s really hard to describe. Cool Keith in any setting. Automator define the laws of nature. Here’s a super deep one. This one I remember coming out, man, this is nuts. I swear I didn’t plan for every album to be 1997. Here’s another one, man. Rakim, 18th letter.

This one. It feels like required homework, required reading, like everybody on the planet. Even if you hate rap and you think that it has no merit whatsoever musically, this particular song called the mystery who is God? I almost just want to read like, the whole thing start to end. I’m not going to do that, but do it, do it. Let’s do the verses. So this song, the mystery who is God? You got to do it.

You got to wrap it, though. Well, you’re going to have to wrap it if we’re doing the rapping part. I can slam poetry. It would feel like a complete disgrace to try and repeat anything Rakim has done. So we’ll just do his honor right by. I’ll read it as a true academic. Fair enough. This is Rakim’s explanation of the origin of life. Like straight up evolution, the soul, the big bang theory, everything.

So really, if you don’t think rap has any merit, give it one shot here. Just hearing some of these lyrics. In eternal blackness, midst of darkest night, proteins and minerals exist in specks of light, solids, liquid gases, sparks of light infinite lengths and widths, depths and heights. Like right here, he’s describing all of math and spatial perception no beginning or ending the seven dimensions enough space for more than a million worlds and inventions travel through time with enough room to be the womb of the most high’s great mind which he will soon make shine intelligent elements in sight he gather in the realms of relativity electricity struck matter, energy explode relulled to keep releasing atoms by the millions till the numbers increasing, till it was burning, kept turning itself to the source the hotterest thoughts gave the center more force.

We’re talking about forming the actual earth at this point, right? With its molten core. He gave birth to the sun, which would follow his laws, caused by mental intercourse. Who is God? And then it goes into this. I mean, he’s basically saying carefully, I drop this degree scientifically, realistically. If you can see, it’ll solve the mystery. The answer resolves around your history. And then here’s the. It keeps going.

It’s like three verses, four verses, but he breaks down the entire formulation of religion, God, matter, electricity, starts to breathe deep in the dark seas, to lay the clays, to form land and expand. This is basically restating the Bible along with a whole bunch of different sort of scientific observations. He’s mentioning revelations, Genesis, St. John, Luke. This isn’t Bs. This is really deep. And incredibly, the merit of the music of Rakim is worth it.

He’s one of the best to ever do it. So I don’t know if I’ve even done that half the justice. But if anyone’s like, I’ll never listen to a rap song in my life, at least listen to this one and read the lyrics. It’s pretty deep. And then I wanted to end it on prodigy for a number of reasons. One of them is that this was supposed to be one of three different albums, right? It was going to be this album.

He had another one that had a really relevant title. I can’t remember exactly what it was. And the first one was the book of the Dead, and he only released this one and then he choked on an egg is the official story is that he went to eat breakfast and had a hard boiled egg. Dropped all this Illuminati stuff, too. He had just. Yeah, and he’s the one.

The Illuminati want my mind, soul and my body. That’s a prodigy lyric from a mob deep song, right? I think it was on. They were 18 years old, I think when mad young to be talking about Illuminati at 18. And you didn’t have the benefit of hearing it in a rap song because prodigy hadn’t released it yet. You know what I mean? So to be aware and singing about the Illuminati back then would have been insane.

But he had this album called the hegelian dialectic, aka Book of Revelation, and it’s got a bunch of different really good songs on it. This one, mystic, is pretty good. He’s talking about God in the flesh. Lineage is ancient. There’s a little bit of like five percenter stuff in here. And he talks about my stars got six points, so I burn brighter than any pentagram on Hollywood sidewalk.

I love that line right there. But the interesting aspect of it, and he’s got tyranny and it just talks about 911. He’s got this line that says planes crash in the towers and the buildings crash to the ground, including one that wasn’t hit by anything at all. Like such an awesome intro to bust it out with. And if anyone’s not familiar with hegelian dialectic, it’s cool, because if you go to Hegel now, right here, here’s the article on the hegelian dialectic, and it actually has.

For the Prodigy album, click here. So currently on the real wiki page for hegelian dialectic, it links to prodigy mob deep. So that’s kind of cool. But the way that the prodigy Wiki article explains hegelian dialectic is kind of interesting. It says the album named after a philosophical concept called the hegelian dialectic. It’s an argument process explaining the process of history being a conflict of ideas, where interactions between thesis and antithesis, or antithesis create synthesis.

This is the logical foundation for Karl Marx and Frederick Engel’s theory of history and class struggle, where the conditions of a societal production develop under oppressed classes necessary to overthrow the oppressor class. Now, it’s a bunch of words and academic phrases, but I’ve got a couple graphics here that are, I think, pretty decent at explaining a. This is a concept that takes people entire lifetimes to fully digest what, like hegelian dialectic and just Hegel’s philosophy in general.

But this is sort of what makes the hegelian dialectic. Interesting is that here’s classic logic. And the way that classic logic would describe something. This is very simplified, but it’s like, okay, you started at a and then you get to b. And the way that you get from a to b to c is almost as, like, linear line, as if it’s like a path that you choose to go down.

But what Hegelian dialectic says is that nothing ever happens in a straight line, and there’s always, like, an EB and a flow. So, for example, here’s the a starting point. If you imagine this is like the center, right? If you want to get over here to b and you want to have control over b, you actually have to understand that the tide is going to turn, right. So let’s say that this is like a conservative political ideology.

If you want it to remain conservative all the way, let’s say this is like a 50 year gap in time, right? If you want it to remain conservative for 50 years, you’re going to actually have to let it swing to the left or swing to the right and become more right or more left, just so that the natural flow of society will push it back over to the center again, as opposed to letting it naturally meander over there, because then you don’t have as much control.

So here’s another version of it, and I swear this won’t turn into, like, a philosophy lecture, but this is the way that I understand it. Old thesis, let’s say that this is like hippie culture, right? Old thesis is hippie culture. So because of the rise of hippie culture, you get people with an emerging antithesis of hippie culture. You’ve got the yuppies, right? The geckos. They sort of rise as this opposition to, like, screw all those hippies.

I can’t believe the world is. Everyone’s just free love and they don’t want jobs and they don’t want to put shoes on. We’re going to do the exact opposite. We’re going to focus on material gains and wealth and turn that into pop culture. And it does happen, right? But then what happens is that after this comes to a head, after enough people become against this hippie concept, that’s what you would call the maturation of the antithesis.

And then this becomes the synthesis. So this line, imagine everything under this line. It says quantitative changes. So that means the number of people that are starting to feel a certain way is growing, growing, growing. And once it hits a critical mass known as this crisis phase, now there’s so many people that are anti hippie, they finally do something about it. And that’s this line that’s growing up here.

And this is where it transitions to a quantitative meaning, lots and lots of people, to a qualitative meaning. Now they’re doing something to change reality. So when that hits, it goes from quantitative, lots of people, to qualitative, doing a thing. And now this is the synthesis. The synthesis is okay, now yuppie culture is the thing. Now it’s all about american psycho and Huey Lewis in the news, and it’s hip to be square.

This is the new sort of counterculture becoming mainstream culture. But that happens, right? And now you’ve got all these 90s skaters and anarchy punk, and they’re like, screw that, man. My dad’s a yuppie and I’m sick of that. And then it just starts all over again. The cycle is like, okay, now when there’s enough people that are against their yuppie dads, then now the mainstream culture becomes nirvana and Kurt Cobain and Jinko jeans and all of that, like, alternative rock, and the cycle just completes.

But if you’ve got control over, like, if I was in control of the hippie culture and I’m in control of the yuppie culture, then I can kind of steer around all this and I can direct and know where this synthesis takes place. So anyways, pretty freaking deep for a rap album. You broke that down pretty nicely. It’s a really deep topic. That’s, again, it takes. People go to college for multiple credits just to learn about hegelian dialectic.

So it’s an incredible topic and it’s an absolute shame and a huge red flag that prodigy was taken out by a freaking egg when he was releasing an album about the hegelian dialectic. He was one of the rappers that introduced me to the illuminati. So it’s wild that he went out writing an album about it. Yeah, and the egg symbolism, too. You got the orifice egg. There’s a lot of egg in symbology for symbolism, whatever.

So that was my five albums. You brought up five or so albums. I brought up a bunch. I don’t know, I kind of just wanted to kind of go through. No, I like going through and seeing what you were listening to. Because, again, it’s wild to hear your version of middle school and high school music versus my version of middle school and high school music. Because even when I was growing up, vanilla ice is a joke now.

Right. But he was like the main. No, he’s the juggalo too. I saw him at the gathering of the juggalos he performed, and he’s got a link to Suge knight. So he also is kind of tangential to the same exact industry that gave you Tupac and gave you all the west coast death row and stuff. I don’t think they were homies or anything. I’m pretty sure that Suge Knight held him out of a balcony by his feet, but still, they were running in the same.

Yeah, no, it’s. It’s interesting. So we got a lot of really good suggestions out here. Mortal technique is probably one of the hardest conspiracy political rappers that’s been really consistent. He’s always been talking about this kind of stuff. Yeah, we got donut dripped and butter. And I wanted to shout out to esoteric, Eddie just did an interview recently with, I think, Goretex. I think it was with Goretex or Sabak who had the art of dying.

Am I right? Is that the name of the album? And that one also has some really crazy esoteric symbolism that was weaved into it. And I think that’s nonfiction album members. So this is all, like, they’ve been doing this since the later talking about it. We’re talking about independent artists that made their own moves. They weren’t accepted in the industry. They printed like they went out and did their own moves, and they still do it today.

And watching that, it’s just entrepreneurship. It’s tight, and it goes into power dynamics to the whole hip hop. Watching it is like watching Game of Thrones. You can kind of see this with, let’s say, young jeezy and Gucci man, how they had the beef, and who came up on top was Gucci man, through power dynamics. And then you can see the same power dynamics, especially with 50 Cent and Ja rule.

That was like a big thing. The king kill ritual, where he killed the king Ja rule, who was all over the place, and the 50 cent came out, and then he took over that. And you can kind of see this in the underground hip hop world as well with battle raps and beef. So warfare plays a huge role in hip hop, and you can learn a lot about life and that watching it.

Like, okay, this guy, he did a battle rap, like Tom McDonald, for example. He’s promoted by the Google algorithms heavily. And he did a lot of beefs on his rise up to power. And you could say he won those beefs in the raps because, like, all the people he was dissing, you don’t see them anymore. So you could kind of see different power dynamics through the machiavellian strategies of principalities.

Even if they’re unafair advantages of, let’s say, a Google algorithm promoting you, it still goes into the whole dynamics of power, even if it isn’t skill. Like, this rapper’s better. His diss was better. Yeah, but maybe this guy’s political moves were better that brought him higher up in the industry. So it’s kind of fun to watch and learn from different battles that happen in the hip hop world with two different mcs.

Is one going to just give up entirely, or is he going to rise up and make some new albums and drop some new stuff? So that kind of stuff really inspires me, like learning from the mistakes of others or their successes in an entrepreneurial sense of when I was doing my videos. Whenever you start a YouTube channel, you’re going to get haters in the beginning. And that’s just a test to see if you could run over them in a sense, and continue.

And a lot of people won’t continue their dream, whatever it is, because especially what we do. Paranoid. We come out here, we make some art, we put out whatever we want. Who has the balls to do that? Who has the balls to be criticized? I go out and make a video and it doesn’t do well. Everyone laughs at me. Family one. But then I’ll go do it again.

I don’t care. I’m going to keep on going. But the people laughing at me, or you or whoever, they try to do it one time, or do they have the balls to try it and maybe get no views? Right. Very discouraging. Or get people laughing at them, or friends and family stop talking to you because you’re doing what you love to do. To persist through that is an entrepreneur spirit, and it’s a spiritual spirit as well.

I like to just look at all these different aspects of people, from hip hop to politics? Well, you’re right. The entrepreneurial spirit is an interesting one in all of music, but in rap music in particular, because it’s like, man, again, when I was trying to make it in the music industry, that’s what I wanted to do with the rest of my life until I got a little taste of it and I realized that it wasn’t really my thing.

But the whole way up there, it was becoming really obvious which part of the reason that I started to get salty about it, that it wasn’t necessarily the musicians that had the best music ever. It was never about them. It was always about the ones that had the. I mean, it sounds so cliche, but had the connections. Or very often, man, it came down to things like they showed up earlier, they showed up on time, or they actually did what they said, or they had the money to pay for the studio session and they didn’t bring their friends to the session with them and they didn’t cause problems.

All those different things you could kind of see, at least in my mind, the absolute best artists that I ever worked with in a recording studio was an engineer or a producer or anything. They were always the most unreliable people. They felt like the least on a hinge, you know what I mean? It was very unpredictable. And whenever they did show up, if you happen to get them in the right mood and they weren’t half there, like half asleep or paying attention to something else going on in their life, you had them in the moment and they were in the zone.

It would be like magic, but you would have to be able to do that consistently. So then what would happen is if you got one person that can come reliably and record an album every six months and put it out and not get upset because their favorite song got cut by the label, because a label thought that it wouldn’t do it, like all those things, it becomes more and more of like, can you play by the rules? And if you can play by the rules, then you get invited on the tour.

And then if you do well on the tour and you show that you can play by the rules in a live scenario with other people, dynamic environment, then it keeps bringing you up and up. And at the very low levels, all those truly ingenious people, they get weeded out almost immediately. Like the third time, you don’t show up on time to the recording studio, no matter what the excuse is that would just permanently blackball somebody from a music industry.

And I saw it happen so damn often. Not just the music industry, any industry, right? Yeah. But I guess that one of the nuanced lies, or, like, the naivete of me growing up is I just assumed that music cut through all that. That if you had the merit, I figured music was a pure meritocracy. If you could sit down and write the best song and you could make it sound the best, then you would just inherently become popular because someone would hear it and of course they would want to share it around.

But it doesn’t work like that because you don’t have enough friends that are going to send your CD to every single college station DJ out there. But you know who can is someone that’s got that Paola going, and that has all those commercial connections. So it ties back into exactly what you were saying. It’s like an entrepreneurial spirit that makes you a successful musician more than having any sort of talent in music.

It obviously helps if you’ve got both. That’s when you’ve got these big moguls that will turn the game on its head. But there are so many musicians out there that are probably better than anything you’ve ever heard, but you’ll never hear it because they don’t necessarily want to make a buck. And it’s sad, but that’s how it works. But from us being in the music industry and working with ego and all that, it really transitions so easily into the podcasting sphere because it’s the exact same game with all the hip hop artists being a bunch of girls, not in a bad way like girls out there.

I’m talking about. That was bad wording. But being like a bunch of little kids mentally, egotistically working with artists is all ego, right? And I’m talking about, like, you got these gangster, big, buff rappers, and I’m saying they’re like girls. I was just trying to. I love the idea, too, though, that the rappers can see the egos they create if they’re hyper aware as like a champion, like an aggregor that they’ve created, that they put out on the stage that does all their fighting for them.

So when you see battle rappers, part of me, it’s almost like a Power Rangers fight scene, right? Like, you zoom out and there’s two big dudes in suits, you know what I mean? And it’s not the rappers that are fighting. It’s these crazy, huge, larger than life, ultron style guys. And that’s what are going back and battling with each other. Yes, but on a business level, with the egos, you get that in the podcasting stuff, too.

And that’s why I think I was so successful maneuvering through podcasting with a lot of people is because of all the stuff I’ve learned through mixtapes and working, I’ve produced over, I would say, two to 1000 individual corporation businesses, like, done business with people and podcasts and networked and all that. It’s an easier transition from that into the whole podcasting realm. There’s a lot of correlations with it.

And another thing, too, about that battle mentality that always was interesting to me because I remember Battle of the bands, but Battle of the bands was really just a bunch of different local bands would go up, and then there would usually be, like, radio scouts or someone there. And the premise was that if you performed really well at a battle of the bands, then you might get invited to have your song on the radio or something would kind of come out of it.

But it was never really band a versus band b. It was just kind of like, how much did the crowd cheer for one versus the other? But when it came to rap battles, this was literally, that guy is talking about that guy. He’s saying all sorts of horrible things about him and his mom and his sister, and it was very personal. Like, these guys are actually fighting each other, and I had never seen that in any other musical genre.

Even in those kind of battle of the bandsy sort of situations, it almost never felt like they were writing songs about the other band. To fight in a live environment and have to do it kind of on your toes, and I feel like I would love to see that in the jazz world or in the pop world or something, right? Like, if there was the equivalent of a Taylor swift sparring against Kanye or something, but it wasn’t like, rap battle, I don’t know what that would look like, but it would be amazing.

And that’s one of the many different parts of rap in particular that’s so unique that I don’t think exists in other sort of genres, because it’s not just, like a style of music. It’s this whole other thing that comes with it. Yeah, here comes a power dynamic, too. It’s like, within warfare. Guitar battles are a good example, and drum offs, too, are a really good example, but I don’t think they don’t exist as much anymore.

And I guess kill Tony is, like, one of the only places, and it’s kind of like a stand up show, but they have mexican drum offs every once in a while, and I love. Man, like, I love seeing two creatives go at it and battle each other because so much of the battling we see now, it’s all, like, sports or physically based or it’s like trivia kind of stuff.

It’s very moat remembery type of things. But to do it in music or even art, there was, like, a really awesome art show for a while, was hosted by the chick from Sex in the City. I can’t remember her name, but she hosted it and was actually, like, artists would all have to do the same thing and kind of get judged on each other. Sort of like an ink master, right? That might be the closest that we’ve got in other non musical genres, but, like, inkmaster style competition.

I wish there was. I would say, like, WCW or. That’s a great backyard wrestling. That’s like actor battles, right? Like, I can act better than you. Yeah. But the only other thing would be maybe like a real boxing match or something. I mean, they had that, right. There was a small moment in time when rappers were actually fighting each other and there was the def jam game. Do you remember when that came out? That was big.

When there was wrestling games and there was a bunch of fighting games, and then there was like a def jam game that basically combined WCW with all of the rappers. And it was a little bit of both. It was a very special moment in time. And then they also had that one. Remember that PlayStation rap game, parappa the rapper? Yeah, parapa the rapper. Oh, yeah, I do. Maybe we’ll have to play Parappa the rapper, man, on, like, an upcoming episode.

Yeah. Or dance dance revolution. Oh, yes. We’re doing fat battles in 2024. Yeah, fat battles with the dropping testosterone. All right, man, we’ll wrap this up here. Leave a little bit of sauce for the next one. So where can people find you in case they don’t know who you are and they’ve lived under a rock? You could find me at Doe dough nut. N-U-T doughnut. There’s a little dash in there in between do.

Oh, on the website. Yeah, on the website there’s a dash. Look at that. Skateboarding. That was another 97 thing, wasn’t it? Tech decks. That was a late 90s thing. I was never as good at it. And then you do a kick flip right at the edge. So I’m paranoid american. I’ll still be paranoid american tomorrow, hopefully. I don’t think I’m ever going to get less paranoid or less american.

If I was going to get less of either of those, it would be the american part. But I don’t think that’s going to happen either. You’ve been imprinted? I’ve been imprinted too much. Can’t get rid of it, though. I love part of my programming, just like I love some of the rap albums that I grew up with. Even if I know, know Disney programmed to put it into my head, I’m okay with.

And also, like, with the these, right? Even if I don’t vibe with the lyrics anymore or messages or whatever it is, it’s been imprinted. And if you want to hit peak performance and get in the zone, you got to go back to your imprinting of music. That’s when Michael Jordan’s head coach, Michael Jordan, when he was playing a game and he needed to get in the zone. His head coach, he’d call and he would say, don’t listen to any of that new music.

Play something from a long time ago when you were a kid and you’ll know what song it is because you’ll smile when you hear it. That’ll get you in the zone. And I always thought that was interesting. That’s it. That’s classic NLP anchoring technique. It is. For real? Yeah. 100%. Yeah. I’m going to have to interview you on that. Yeah. You’d be a monster, man, if you applied a little bit more NLP, it would be nuts.

Because I really do think that Jordan Maxwell, just like he got me under NLP by default. He didn’t have to go to a class, he just did it. He was just born with it. But that’s what NLP is. It’s like patterning after people that do it naturally and figuring out what the hell the special sauce is. So that’ll be a future episode. Appreciate everyone in the comments that came out and hung out.

Happy birthday to donut, by the way. And with that, we’ll play you out with the sound science intro. Thank you, everybody. Frequency oh yeah. Sound science maybe we’ll seek in secret things our sound science close. .
