00:00Okay. The smiling side is the Baidu. Okay. The not smiling side is the Baidu. I get it.
00:09All right. So I'm going to give this to you. So here's how it works. All right. Okay. Folks say
00:14that you have a way with the fellas. So we're going to name some famous men and you tell us
00:19if you would Baidu or Baidu them. All right. You can interpret that however you want. So you can
00:24Baidu or Baidu him for any reason you like. No. It doesn't matter. And we have this visual aid
00:29for you. All right. Y'all set me up. Do you think you're ready to play? I'm not ready
00:34but I mean okay. All right. It'll be fun. It'll be fun. All right. All right. So the first one
00:39is Idris Elba. Is that a Baidu or a Baidon? I think most of our Essence audience would agree
00:48with you. I think most of our Essence audience would agree with you on Idris. Do you want
00:53to say why? Why he's a Baidu? I think Idris has a really nice voice. Nice presence. And he's a great
01:03DJ. He's multifaceted. Many layers. Many layers to his thing. All right. I like that. Okay. Next,
01:11Kendrick Lamar. Baidu. I like Kendrick Lamar. Great mind. I love his perspective. Music is
01:21always creative and innovative. All right. Lucius Lyon. We're talking about music. Who is that?
01:30From Empire. Oh. I would have to say in the middle because I would have to know who that
01:35is. Played by Taryn Tower. He's the lead. It's like a Baidu on the fence. Okay. Okay. We'll take
01:42that. That works. No. I mean I can't put him on the fence. I got to do it this way. I don't. I'm
01:48not hip to it but you know. What you think about it? Let's let you do this one. I'm going to say
01:53if I don't. A Baidu? I'm going to say if I don't. Okay. All right. Just roll with me on this one.
01:57It's not me, Lucien. I'll fill you in a little bit later. Okay. All right. Maxwell. I do. If I do.
02:05Yeah. Max is very clean and he's a really good person. You know he's honest and you know
02:14that's what we want when it comes to art. We just our only job is to be honest and I feel
02:19that honesty from him. And it's hard to find honest people in his face sometimes. Yeah.
02:24All right. Donald Trump. I mean see if I need something from Donald Trump he's going to mess
02:34me up. I'm going to have to say. On the fence. I'm going to have to say Baidu. You know
02:44why? Okay. Because he whatever he trying to do he doing it. You know whatever he's trying
02:49to accomplish he's accomplishing it. You know I look at my children and you know he's a powerful
02:55person. So when I look at my kids you know they can either be Martin Luther King or they
02:59turn out to be Hitler. You know you just never know. But I would say he is doing whatever
03:04it is he's setting out to do. He's creating dialogue. And as a sociologist I look at that
03:10kind of thing as success. You know opinion about who he is I can't judge that because I'm no Judy.
