Insights
- Social media has fundamentally altered dating dynamics by reducing in-person confidence and enabling catfishing, creating a generation more comfortable with digital interaction than face-to-face engagement
- Team involvement in personal relationships creates ethical tension between protecting business interests and respecting individual autonomy, requiring clear boundaries and trust
- Black cultural contributions to society are historically understated; recognizing these achievements is essential to understanding modern civilization
- Rejection tolerance and direct communication are lost skills in modern dating due to social media enabling avoidance of real-time feedback
- Authenticity and honesty outperform manufactured 'game' in building genuine connections with potential partners
Trends
Decline of in-person social skills among younger generations due to smartphone and social media dependencyRise of content monetization opportunities for creators on TikTok and social platforms enabling direct brand partnershipsIncreased scrutiny of Black representation in major awards ceremonies and film industry recognitionSocial media as primary dating and relationship initiation tool replacing traditional street approachesTeam/management involvement in personal relationship decisions as business protection strategyCatfishing and personality misrepresentation becoming normalized risks in online datingPublic rejection avoidance driving preference for anonymous digital communication over direct approachesTrauma bonding and emotional attachment patterns in relationships influenced by shared difficult experiences

about those urban movies In that time because it came out around the same time Early night I'm not saying That was really going on We was around that age when that movie came out With the age demographic that they were playing In the movie So you felt that But I felt the way they connected with each other Like it was real What they was going through with the police It was really touching me I related to that I was a great movie I love all the movies but I feel like New Jersey Drive If we talking black urban movies Yeah All the movies got Oscars in our hood though If it was hood Oscars Midget society New Jack City Boys in the hood We all watched the movies over and over Even the gangster flicks The good fellas in the casinos Scarface If you're in a hood there's a circle of movies

Oh Duh It was both of them It was all of them really It was a dude religious dude Because I grew up in the church The King because niggas had the hustle And shit like that and the old dog Because the gang banging shit started around Not too long after that and shit like that A little bit before that movie came out In the year 93 I graduated in 94 so all of that Shit was kind of all The fact that he got nominated for 16 He got nominated for 16 different nominations Congratulations And Michael B. Jordan Big congrats to them Ryan Cougal got no made Black Panther too He's a serious dude He's a serious dude I met him one time He's a serious young black Producer and director Let's see you gonna go for the more or less? As far as with Ryan Cougal He nominated for 16 nominations You're going for the more or the less? I mean just the way things are set up I don't see them giving a black man Are you going for the more or for the less? I'm gonna have to say less Because I don't see him getting 16 What you going for Spitz? On the nominations? He gets 16 nominations So you're going for the more or you're going for the less? Can he get more than 8 or can he get less than 8? You didn't say that That's the more the less You didn't say 8, you gotta give me the number then In 16 nominations Is he gonna go more than 8 or less than 8? You're gonna get at least 8 More or less? More or less? Less What you going for? He nominated for 16 You said 8 Or I'm gonna go less I'm going less too just because of In the history of black people You're going for a black man He might get 2 I want him to get all 16 He might get 1 This Oscars is set up I don't have to sweet the whole shit But I'm thinking If you catch the more You're gonna get a bag though What? You're going for the more right? I didn't see the movie Did you see the movie? Everybody saw the movie? I saw the movie Did you like the movie? I saw the movie 2 or 3 times I think the acting was really good Did you like the movie? I've seen the movie I've seen the movie That was crazy That's heavy Just being on the set I know playing one role is heavy So to be able to play a role And salute the future I hope you don't get robbed For fucking a white woman on there You think that would be the reason That you're not? You're fucking a white lady You're performing for the internet Versus I'm gonna handle this Off social media We gotta start drawing the line First of all You can't crash out over a social media person That's why you gotta set certain rules That's becoming my new logic Do I bug out? What type of person is this That's actually making me feel this way? I think once you go to social media With anything is a form of You're leaving a trail You're gonna let You put in it out there You don't really want too much smoke It can't be a problem We gotta set certain boundaries For ourselves and stick with the rules Okay, so here goes one rule If you go On a platform And talk about let's rap about it If you do that But yeah, you've been on a stand before Right You are ineligible to be going back You're gonna fall for the nigga Because guess what We saw you in a crisis before We seen how far you willing to go Think about what I'm saying They don't respect They don't but we don't respect ourselves But man this is my thing though We can't be dealing with no nigga That's why I said That's why I said what I said You can't crash with somebody That ain't from the same type of club If it's a nigga that I know Or a moral same mindset that I got Then by all means Let's do it If I know you as pure internet We don't got no type of nothing That I can relate to Bro I'm not crashing bro Bro what You crash for what Somebody say something about you On a grab you engage You catch them slipping you do something to them You're going to jail bro So you don't even need to If you said nigga talk about Let's rap about it on one of these podcasts And then you look at who is talking And it's a nigga that been on a stand And he's pointed out a small village If he had First of all any nigga that's been on a stand like that After he popped so much shit Is a stronger man than me I don't want no smoke with a man like that Because you got the heart and courage Enough to get on the stand and say It was him your honor with the blue suit Plus him and him and him And then after you talk Crazy is what the real T is You see what I'm saying So what I'm saying is We don't want smoke with people like that We got to have rules and boundaries For ourselves so like I'm declaring A no contest rule With any nigga That been on a stand before I don't want no beef with you bro There's a few types of niggas that we should have No contest rule but no contest rule What else? I like to get into it I know what my thing is I I don't even know what to say I said pause No but it's got to be so I lost my train of thought But why were you even paying them attention Is what I'm saying Because if they talk about it that's free promo Well sometimes you got to like Every now and then You got to like Yeah It's the tabloids now though If it was the tabloid era You're going to run down and catch every reporter That says something crazy about you You can't So now is even more Now than in the tabloid era It's a billion of them It's entertainment bro When people start engaging back and forth for social media It turns into clicks, it turns into streams It turns into all of that A damn near at the top of the streams Of these media so To engage in them whether things actually happen or not But you got to think It's like the dude that got smacked in his mouth Right You see what I'm saying space The boy got smacked in his mouth Okay with his security In front of his security Instead of dealing with the issue They drove off And then you know what he did Went to the internet That's what's going on now We leave these people alone So what happens You talking on your phone About somebody assaulted you bro So now what happens with that To leave the scene of disrespect It's crazy Which security That's diabolical You left the disrespect Things have been capitalizing on content How has that changed Being discovered What's happening A girl did a jingle For Dr. Pepper She ended up getting a $2 million check For the jingle she made on tiktok So now it's like creators are being able to capitalize Way more easier than it was In previous years for people that have been trying To crack the code against some of this Advertising the market and money from these big brands Any one of you niggas got jingle ideas?

I don't think that Do you think he can be as good as the OG Give him some time He got to perform, he got to show up It's going to take a while to get to He's not even in the conversation Tom Brady He's having a great year but Tom didn't even left the Patriots and did it He did it somewhere else Tom did it better than Mike Mike came back and did it He did three You're right, he did That's crazy Tom, who you think did it better or you think they tied I think both of them did But I think Jordan's is harder I think to win three years in a row take two years off and then win three years in a row again is crazy Mike, you think it's harder to win a basketball championship than it is a Super Bowl? Yup Because the Super Bowl a team could get in a hot streak at the end of the year and just kind of end up in the Super Bowl With basketball one, they got to play 82 games so they play way more games Football is more physical of course but they play way more games so it's teams who can start out and get an injury or something that can change they hold dynamic I think to win three championships in basketball back to back, teams is getting better every year in the NBA so to win three times in a row is crazy Did Brady went back to back? Brady did Yeah, didn't he have two back to back? No, he didn't do two back to back No? What you think about Drake you think he had as far as touchdowns you think more? I'm going to go more Like I spoke on just with the legacy I feel like he got a lot he got big shoes to fill So for what's going on? He got to go more I got to go more on touchdowns He got a good couple receivers on his squad he's been passing the ball all year so I think What you think about Stefan? What you think about Stefan? You think he's going more? No, but you think is he going more? As far as Stefan? As far as yards? I'm going more I think he's going more I think they motivated more than they been They got to have the energy All season I feel like The energy and the momentum is a more fucking playing sport It's the last game of the year I'm going to cry on national tv That did it for you? When you cry on national tv that means you in tune You in tune, like you really there You understand what I'm saying? It's different Stefan's career too he's also almost got there like a couple times too One year when he was on the bills while the other team was celebrating the confetti flona he was just soaking that up pissed off I know he's crying on it It's emotional He's almost got there before and had to really like imagine losing the game right before the championship That's a hurt He put in a lot to even get that far He got to perform I'm going to go more too It's emotional The whole team got to perform What about Seattle though? What about them? Passing yards Seattle tough If you're going to go more or just talk about the more I'm going to go less just because I'm going with the Patriots We less with everything with Kenneth Walker, we less with all those I'm going to go more with them More with them too?

Well needed commercial break You're alright man How you feeling? Everything healthy? How y'all feel about people relying on social media to connect What do you think actually engaging with somebody in reality I think engaging is like a lost art because when we first coming outside we didn't have the luxury of having cell phones or social media or the internet you had to definitely speak or you would not get no girls or anything You had to bag that when you've seen that 100% I think a lot of that has been lost kids have these phone devices and all that What do you think Spiris? I'm not against people connecting via social media or technology or internet or whatever but I definitely think when you actually meet in person you're going to have to still be a vibe you're going to still have to get the same vibe that you portray on a device The thing is it's not so much that it's the fact that some of these people are growing up in a social media era and they may not have the confidence that it takes to go out and holla at the lady or speak to the lady I feel like they have more confidence on line than in person but they have more confidence on line You're going to definitely say something in the DM that they never going they're not going to approach like that people they would never even approach That's my point That's why I said even if you're talking online you got to be able to be the same person you got to get the same vibe and energy or something if you clam up when you see them in person I think it smoked the social the networking with everything beyond the female aspect of it you might sit with the bros and it ain't no more and we're talking about we might talk for 10 minutes then anybody back in the phone like the phone is there I'm guilty of it I'm checking You walk in a club you see everybody in sections sitting at tables everybody got their hands they faces in the phone nobody is even trying to whisper in the check it ain't no more you see her face let me see who she cool with she might know this one this is what niggas do they go home and figure out her follow and be like it was too much going on in there tonight I ain't really one above you he lacked the confidence but then you got a paragraph in the DM but you couldn't say hi in person you couldn't say hey how you doing it's spooky rejection is a hurtful thing niggas ain't ready for rejection but you got to get rejection you better get ready you got to be able to be confident even speaking with women just in person like you have to have came from a time of feeling you been curved every chick you go for ain't going to jack what you saying some ain't going to hear it now your approach change up but if every shot you shoot in is from a DM you get what I'm saying you meet the person and the person ain't who you been DMing it got a match there's a lot of cat fishing and a lot of freaky weird shit going on too personality fishing there's a certain way online and don't be the same so that's a confidence thing you don't know who you being is that a confidence thing you won't say nothing to this girl you could be standing two feet next to this lady I don't even think it's confident I think it's more the time now but you won't say nothing in person it's your weight until you get behind your phone all of them so it's just the way that they approach that's how they interact with females or the opposite sex I think public rejection public rejection has changed this whole thing to like nobody want to get curved in their face and a group of people like sure they got all of them you got all your homies there whatever you go over there and say to her you want to be able to go back to your homies like yeah I got that number if she curves you on the spot nobody want to deal with that no more but I'd rather get past it so we don't waste each other time listen do you want to give me a number or not let's get to that do you want to speak with me later do you want to live here or not you invited them to the crib or not I'm giving you the option okay don't give me your number and then ignore it later because you know that's some of the tricks right they'll give you the number and they won't ever answer we don't even got to do that that's why face to face is better because we can get right down to the but that's also not the cut short that could be attributed to our era as well y'all a little older than me but that's the same era I feel like even maybe now the younger female is not accustomed to the rundown so that might scare her right off your mind what up like how I used to you know what I'm saying they used to chase down the block they definitely not remember how talking to a girl from your car how the car over that the talk from the car used to could be like they could be on a sidewalk that's harassment now that's harassment if you follow a chick a block you see her you have another window I never see girls like that that I would want to live that's over spinning around in block that still exists but it's going to be a harassment charge that shit is like you going to get scared of shit out of her because I guess they not used to physical interactions no more even from the female standpoint social media bro they probably used to niggas DMing them as far as like instead of niggas actually hollering at them saying something to them in real life you know what you can see though from the social that you wouldn't be able to see if you just meet in somebody's apartment they social like say you on their page you can see what they been doing you can see that on their page it's just the surface but you can see all of that versus when you just meet somebody in person you don't know what their history is just meet somebody in person when you meet somebody online you can scroll through their page and see who they be with who they be at on the flip side of that that could be cap everything they can post on that it could happen person too at least when you meet a person they might be Gucci down and be pop but alright that's all you get with the gram it's like you can scroll back for months months months and it's looking like oh this motherfucker live in life and then you get around them and that ain't what's going on at all if she looks decent at least you get to know it because on the gram it could be yeah it could be yeah it could be hold them and they be stealing profiles like they take videos and pictures of somebody else and then DM you niggas is meeting the catfish or the catfish or the catfish just your the relationship guru main if someone that had no game right now was listening what would you tell them they need to do as far as being more competent in their approach hold on before you answer that 1-800-MAIN-O if y'all got any problems relationship advice love advice call my dog 1-800-MAIN-O you are now what's the question the question is what advice would you give somebody that had no game right now when it comes to approaching a female or the opposite sex or whoever they may like be yourself be yourself be honest say listen I'm not a nigga with all the game and all that but I like you I'm feeling you I'm attracted to you do you think that's gonna work honesty always gonna win always because if you come into the people as the people you telling her exactly where you stand and who you are listen I'm not that confident I'm not a nigga that's wordy I'm not fluent be honest she gonna feel you because you said these things to her okay use yourself instead of trying to have a game what's game so at what point do you ask her to come stay with you after is this on it what what he said what part of the convo do you say come change your address after you ask her for the number how long does it take you to say okay now you can come stay with me forever that all depends that's a lot that's a vibe that's a connection that's a the right city the right music it's a combination of things okay right it's a combination that can not happen I can get your number and this is I hit you later or whatever like what you doing after but that's it's based on the vibe if she get curbed or if she move in that night or based on her vibe it's based on the whole vibe because you could be you could be feeling the vibe and she can not be and that's when you hit it with the or not so what's the vibe that makes her move in that night that's when the vibe is vibing that's when the vibe is vibing that's when everything's perfect that's when everything is aligned the stars the moon the earth everything is aligned the universe is universal okay that's when things are happening okay I'm learning I'm learning okay you never felt like you connected with somebody you feeling her she feeling you the conversation is flowing and it just feels good it's just like you know what move in I want to be with you it seems like you have more connections than the fight to Africa my brother maybe maybe is it okay for your team to be involved in your personal relationships if it's affecting your work should your team be speaking on you and your lady what you mean though like if you and your lady going through problems and you voice your opinion it's affecting if you and your lady going through problems but that's affecting the overall business should your team be able to interject and let you know should they intervene is my lady a hoe I don't know is she I'm asking no you might be telling you like yo main your lady is a hoe that's what I'm asking you might be one of them that's what I'm asking that's what I'm asking is is she a hoe it's fucking the gang up right now it's fucking out what we got going on taking us look bad you keep bringing this we look crazy man niggas know her now you put it like that she's very familiar she's too familiar so her being them coming to me and say I know you think you want or something but you're not but you're not at all champ and at that point it's up to you to find out if you really know but do you take it home so the question is do pride take over in that moment fuck out there nigga I know what I got going on are you mad at them for even bringing that to you do you hear the guys out like what see cause you got some niggas that might be mad at them for even bringing that to you I don't know you gotta tell us are you in love with her I think I love her I think I love her I think I love her yo so in that case do you even hear what they telling you probably not what the fuck how is it possible you probably don't even hear nothing that was told to you probably not man she's a hoe do that make you curve right in the moment or do that boost you a little bit like what you feel like they hitting I feel like when you tell truthfully if you're if it's somebody you work with or somebody that's your family your brother or sister or whatever they tell you about somebody that you're interested in or you love or whatever you might love or almost on the pathway to do that it kinda empowers you cause then you know what it is I think too like I respect it because your team is supposed to always keep you on point in a sense especially if it's fucking up business or anything like that so I respect it because it it shows you you got people around you that care about you know at least the business but at the same time too it's the it's the way it's done too the delivery like you know what I mean if your assistant come up to you and say yo your lady's a hoe you know what I'm saying but if it come to you in a way that you could process it and understand it then what's the way though cause you're like yo fab I was out the other night and you know that girl that you always with she's not gonna say that but she's gonna give you a long drawn out scenario a version of your lady's a hoe right and that's gonna be that's gonna be even more frightening cause that's what this ghost is saying she's a hoe cause you gotta hear everything your heart beating I was out I was out and sometimes when you out you see people that you know that know you and you know them man get to the mother fucker heart like this I don't wanna hear all the build up but you still know what actually was going on yeah but I can't say I seen some of you may know but they had you on fire it looked a lot like the girl that you always with I could be wrong though the one that you moved in she's danical almost but I could be wrong she was at a table with the possibility it might not have been her but it looked like her it looked like her I didn't go say what's up but it looked like this but she was at a table with basketball niggas and one MEA player in particular and I know you know I know you know this nigga they was holding hands I don't wanna say holding hands but their hands were close in proximity and the fact that he kept whispering in her ear all night that's what had me and I don't know maybe because the music was loud music was loud I don't know what they were saying yeah because I don't know he couldn't hear each other that close one of them 611 niggas so he had to kind of he was bending down cause he's kind of taller than her that's how I spotted him he jumped on his back and he carried out he walked out with the bitch all I know is they went home together they jumped in the air I don't know if that was how it was don't kill the messages they got in the black truck together with Virginia plates and then again the place was out of town before they pulled off she threw her panties out the window that's all I saw but it looked like her I can't say that it might have been her if somebody told us your story like that cause that's how the stories be wrong it's like my nigga like what that's worse than somebody saying yo I think that you know shorty ho right you know she a 304 just get to the hole the whole situation and then the mighta could have been her and now you got yo what was yo bro you in a black truck right now but when they yo listen ohhhh you already said that's the real shit when they tell you some shit in real time in real time in real time are you calling that in real time oh my god let me see the inside I got a black truck let me see what you were you ever called to join in real time and she didn't answer you know she was doing back and then she called you back and all you heard was voices in the background oh my god charge it to the game play charge it oh my god you got a boa that charge that man to the game man just charge that charge that up that's why they ain't pick up the first time they go to the quiet room and they hit you from the bathroom hey nigga had his thumb in the back of his shoulder she ran up out of there you don't see me calling you you don't see me calling you that's the face you talking through your teeth you don't see me calling you you about to break his teeth too you need a mouth guard and then you can clean yourself up no babe I was at the dinner table and I was chilling with my friend and he had somebody in the back say come on it's your turn to take shot and they say her name they put around say her name who that so who that stay here and take these shots relax and you make they make you feel like it's you it's richie nigga it's richie it's richie nigga no you actually richie on the phone no bro listen you might be richie on the phone how do you deal with that though you gotta be a tough individual man I think you gotta be mentally prepared for what you sign up for so whatever you sign up for you gotta know what could come with that but what if you know what you sign up for and also are you signed up for your team to put you onto that are you cool with your I think it's gonna if my team gotta put me on it's gonna bother me more that I didn't know why do my niggas know that and I don't know that so I must be really out here blinding the motherfucker for my mans to know and I don't know that so for
