This is an I-Heart podcast.

The volume.

Also, over the weekend, so I didn't listen to the spaces, but apparently there was a real hip-hop spaces going on.

A real hip-hop?

A real hip-hop?

Really hip-hop.

Okay.

And Childs of Glasses Malone, he was on there. Apparently, and again, I don't have all the details here. I just saw the aftermath. Apparently, J. Cole was not hip hop because he went to college. They've been saying that, though. Jay Coe isn't hip-hop because he went to pop? Def Jam was founded in NYU dorm. Yeah, like, what do we do?

That's not new rhetoric at all. Really? J. Cole isn't hip-hop because he went to college? I remember seeing people like, yeah, I wish you would stop rapping about student loans, Cole. You're on your third album. You're like a multimillionaire. Don't tell me about student loan anymore. That was a good time, man. But I've never seen anyone say, because you went to college, you're not hip-hop. Yeah. Y'all know why I think J. Cole ain't hip-hop, but not because he didn't went to college, though. Like, that's stupid. I mean, bad timing is Puff Hip-Hop? Because he broke big at Howard. Yeah, I mean, I don't know that's, that's, because somebody went to college. And I don't know if that was a direct thing, but you know how Twitter takes one little sentence and then makes a whole random conversation about it. I don't know if that was the exact thing, but that was the consensus of the argument afterwards of that spaces. And it's just the wildest thing in the world to me. Yeah, that's just, I think that's just people looking for engagement. That's just stupid.

Jay Cole is definitely hip hop, even though he went to college. Again, my feelings aside.

What doesn't make you hip-hop about college? What happens when you get there?

Like, people don't realize college is just high school. You just sleep there.

Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. You just sleep there. Like I just sleep on the campus. Like, but there's not much difference than the high school. And I never went to college, but I was there enough to know like, nigga, this is high school. at least the first two years

of rappers that went to college that just don't talk about it

you'd be very surprised

yeah like a lot of rappers

like a lot of rappers. Say who? Ice Cube has an architectural degree. Ice Cube? Yeah. Ice Cube. Somebody going to tell me, Ice Cube ain't hip hop? Like, none of you exist about ice cube. Ice Cube has an architectural degree. That makes sense?, no, it definitely does, but I never knew that.

Rappers that went to college.

You know AI never lost.

Never.

Oh, we knew Luda did.

Quali went to, what, City College?
