00:07From Studio 6B and Rockefeller's center in the heart of New York City, it's the Tonight
00:13Show starring Jimmy Fallon.
00:17Tonight, join Jimmy and his guests, Viola Davis, Samuel Clefton-Glazius, and Joe Korn.
00:24Musical guests, Bleachers, and featuring the legendary Roots group.
00:29And now, here he is, Jimmy Fallon!
01:02That's what I'm talking about.
01:04Thank you very much. Enjoy yourself.
01:06Welcome, everybody. Welcome, welcome, welcome to The Tonight Show.
01:10You're here. Thank you for watching.
01:14What an absolutely beautiful day it was in New York City, don't you think?
01:19Oh, it's gorgeous today.
01:21Temperatures in the 70s.
01:22It was unbelievable. It was so nice, I took a pedicab to work.
01:25And this was exciting.
01:27The driver peddling it was a Kristi Noem.
01:29Oh.
01:29Yeah. I love a good celebrity sighting.
01:33Let's get to some news.
01:34Of course, the big story happens to be, continues to be, what's happening in the Middle East.
01:38And yesterday, President Trump said that the war in Iran will be a short-term excursion.
01:44A short-term excursion.
01:46It's the first war to be described like a day of apple picking.
01:50Just like when your mom says she's doing a super-quick target run and ends up stuck in the store
01:54for 30 years.
01:55It's like...
01:57Trump then said that we could call the war in Iran a tremendous success right now, or we can go
02:01further.
02:02Yep. We've apparently entered the just-for-funsies part of the attack.
02:06He also said that the U.S. is making major strides towards completing our military objective.
02:12Yeah. We're almost done with step one, figuring out our military objective.
02:17Trump added that we've already won in many ways, but we haven't won enough.
02:20He was like, the Supreme Leader is gone, but people are still talking about the Epstein files,
02:25so there's still more work to be done.
02:28Once they stop talking about that...
02:32Well, the war is in its second week, and still seems like President Trump has no plan to get out
02:36of it.
02:37In fact, Trump's even started using a special Iran plan generator
02:40to try to come up with ideas.
02:42Really?
02:42Yeah. For instance, when he asks, what do I do about the war in Iran, it tells him to...
02:49...figure out how to blame everything on Obama, Biden, and bad money.
02:53That's it. That's...
02:55See how it works?
02:56Yeah, he does it.
02:57Like, here's another one.
03:00It tells him to...
03:01...just admit you, bit off more than you can chew, like the CEO of McDonald's.
03:06I didn't know how to attack this thing.
03:10And finally, it tells him to...
03:14...threaten to...
03:15...make them...
03:16...touch your neck rash.
03:17Oh, that's...
03:18These are all excuses.
03:20You mix them up.
03:22Of course, due to the war in Iran, gas prices here in the U.S. are soaring.
03:26Yep, gas prices are spiking, and it's already pretty noticeable.
03:29I mean, this is Speedway's jingle before we got involved with Iran.
03:32We're on your way, the convenience stores of Speedway.
03:37Nice.
03:38Oh, nice.
03:39Now, here's the new jingle.
03:40We're on your way, but gas will now cost $80.
03:46I'm hearing they just actually changed it again.
03:48Really?
03:48They sent it to you?
03:49Check this out.
03:50We're on your way, you should siphon gas out of your lawnmower.
03:53See, they actually just released another jingle.
03:58Yeah, here.
03:58We're on your way when you stick in your credit card.
04:01We just don't give it back.
04:04I don't believe this, but they...
04:05Are you serious?
04:06They have one more jingle.
04:07Yeah, listen.
04:07Oh, my gosh.
04:08We're on your way at this point.
04:10You should just buy a horse.
04:12Oh!
04:13I'm getting word that there's the last one.
04:14There's the last one?
04:15There's the last one.
04:16Here it is.
04:16We're on your way.
04:18Gas prices are determined by complex geopolitical factors,
04:21but luckily we still offer great deals
04:23on hot dogs and boner pills.
04:25Oh!
04:29Whoo!
04:31If you go back to the old thing, it's better.
04:33Hot dogs and boner pills.
04:35Switching gears to some business news,
04:36I saw that Spirit Airlines is currently facing a pilot shortage.
04:40Ooh.
04:40Yeah.
04:41Today, they called an Uber to the airport,
04:42then asked the driver,
04:43How would you like to have the wildest day of your life?
04:46Cha-cha-cha-cha.
04:48Oh, bo.
04:50It's concerning that they keep saying anyone who volunteers
04:53to fly the plane drinks for free.
04:54I don't think they should say that.
04:56Spirit is even trying to hire back pilots that they fired.
05:00Oh.
05:00It's great for anyone who likes their pilots rusty
05:02and holding a grudge.
05:04I think that's fine.
05:05Some big sports news.
05:06Travis Kelce just announced that he's returning
05:08for a 14th season with the Kansas City Chiefs.
05:12Oh.
05:12Yeah.
05:13Sure.
05:18Taylor Swift heard and was like,
05:19Hey, you know I'm rich, right?
05:23I could buy Kansas City if you want me to.
05:26Well, finally, guys, it's Tuesday.
05:27It is time for We Post.
05:29Here we go.
05:31We Post.
05:35We Post.
05:36Welcome to We Post.
05:37This is where we, as a group, decide something we should post
05:41on socials.
05:42I'm going to show you five different posts,
05:44and we're all going to vote on whether you like each one or not.
05:46You all have voting clickers at your seats?
05:48You see them there?
05:49Yeah? All right, perfect.
05:50Now, you can vote for all of these if you want.
05:51You can vote for none of them, whatever you want,
05:53and we're going to see the results live.
05:56Higgins, you have your clicker?
05:57Yeah.
05:58Good. Roots, you have your clickers?
05:59All right.
06:00I'm going to post which one gets the most likes from all of us
06:02because it's not a me post.
06:03It's a we post.
06:06Are you guys ready?
06:07Yes.
06:07All right.
06:08The first post is,
06:09As spring approaches, I'd just like to politely remind everyone
06:12that natural deodorant doesn't work.
06:16Just so you know.
06:17Politely.
06:18Politely, yeah. You can purchase it if you want.
06:20It's cool to say that you have it.
06:22Before we put that in your card.
06:23You can try. It just doesn't work.
06:24Here you go.
06:25Vote thumbs up, thumbs down.
06:27Whichever gets the most, we will post.
06:28All right, the votes are in.
06:30Let's see the results.
06:33Oh, not bad. Hey!
06:36All right, I know the clickers work.
06:38Here we go. All right, that's good.
06:39That's going to be a tough one to top.
06:40Wow.
06:42All right, this next one says that when I'm on a flight,
06:44I usually watch two movies, the one I choose
06:47and the one the girl five rows ahead of me chooses.
06:52New Down Abbey movie?
06:55All right, here we go.
06:57Vote up or down.
06:58Are you ready?
06:58Tariq, how are you feeling about this one?
07:00I mean, I feel like it's going to do well,
07:01but it's not going to beat that, you know.
07:03You don't think it's going to beat the first?
07:04No, not at all.
07:05I think that was a false start.
07:07What do you mean?
07:08That one didn't deserve 172 votes.
07:10What?
07:11No, that's not what he's saying.
07:12This one did. This one did.
07:13Oh, you're saying this one's going to get more votes.
07:14No, I don't think... I'm with Tariq.
07:17Tariq's saying that this one's better,
07:18but it's not going to beat the other one.
07:19He wouldn't say that.
07:20That would bring the audience down.
07:22What would he say, Tariq?
07:22We're here to make people laugh and have a good time.
07:25Wait, that's why we're here?
07:27Yes.
07:27Oh, my God. I am totally wrong.
07:29No problem, no problem, no problem.
07:31I think it's going to do pretty well.
07:33Let's see the results here.
07:36Oh, not bad. All right.
07:37Still good.
07:38Still good.
07:39All right, let's go to the next one here.
07:40We got time.
07:41Next one says,
07:42When I go to someone's house for a party,
07:44I'm great at pretending like I haven't already seen
07:46every single room on Zillow.
07:49Oh!
07:50Is this where you...
07:52Oh, your guest room's in here?
07:54Oh, that's cool.
07:55Wow.
07:56There's a wine cellar behind this bookcase?
07:57Yeah, I didn't say wine.
07:58You said wine cellar. I didn't say it.
08:00I'm just assuming you have one. You do?
08:02Cool.
08:02I mean, I don't have to see it, but, yeah.
08:04Wow. Amazing.
08:05Wow. 0.758.
08:06Yeah, you don't have a man cave, do you?
08:08Oh, you do?
08:09All right.
08:10Here we go. I feel decent about this one.
08:12All right. Let's see the results.
08:15All right. Not bad.
08:17Okay.
08:18Come on.
08:18Not bad. We only have a couple more left, so...
08:20All right.
08:21If you haven't voted, go for it.
08:22Yeah.
08:24This is the time.
08:24All right. This next one is,
08:26museums should have a little plaque next to all the paintings
08:28that tell you what noise to make when you look at them.
08:32Ooh.
08:34Oh.
08:34Mmm.
08:35Ah.
08:37I get it.
08:37Yeah.
08:38I get it.
08:39Oh.
08:40Oh.
08:41All right. Let's see the results on this one.
08:43Yeah.
08:44No!
08:45Oh, wow.
08:47First one.
08:48First one still in the lead by far.
08:51Lead by far.
08:51Yeah, 170 is what the first one?
08:53172, right?
08:53172. This has to beat 172.
08:56No matter what this one is, make this one beat the first one.
08:58No, no, hey.
08:59Thumbs up.
09:00You can't do that. You can't.
09:02You guys can vote for whatever you like.
09:05Thumbs up.
09:06I do think this is the best one.
09:08Do you think this one's the best one?
09:09This one I'm about to read.
09:11Okay.
09:11I believe it.
09:12I think it's the best one, too.
09:14Good.
09:14Oh.
09:15Wink!
09:16Everyone saw you wink. You said wink.
09:18All right, here we go.
09:19This last one is,
09:20nothing's guaranteed in life except that when you're folding a blanket with someone,
09:24there's at least one point where you think you might kiss.
09:30I love that one.
09:31Don't worry.
09:39I like that one.
09:41All right, let's see the results here.
09:44No!

11:12Here we go!
11:21Welcome to Battle of the Instant Songwriters.
11:24Before the show, we went through our audience and picked out two people
11:26who said that they were musicians.
11:28We gave them each a made-up...
11:30We don't know.
11:31We gave them each a made-up song title
11:33and gave them an hour to write an original song
11:35based on that title.
11:37Here's a shot of them practicing backstage a minute ago.
11:40Let's see what they came up with and meet them right now.
11:42Come on over, everybody.

12:53The snow is melting, and the air is clear.
12:58The past six months I have been living a lie
13:02I've been sleeping later and I'm never on time
13:07It's time to leave the boy when the hand jumps from one, two, three
13:17I've got to call the car
13:20Cause tonight I'll be losing sleep
13:25At least
13:28The world is back into alignment again
13:32I set the time on my microwave, it's bright again
13:38I've read the manuals and pressed all the buttons
13:43Don't even dare to get me started on the oven
13:48The winter's over and the daylight's been saved
13:53I'm so glad that my microwaves behaved
13:58So glad that I no longer have to pretend

19:03You know, I have to say, skiing into 60 was, I was like, oh, this is fabulous. I'm 60. Now
19:12I'm on a downward turn.
19:13No, no. I am. I'm on a downward turn. No, I am. I'm just trying to get it up now.
19:18Just, like, to be happy about it.
19:20What are you talking about? You look fantastic. You're crushing. You're writing novels with James Brown.
19:26Thank you. What are you talking about? This is great.
19:30And then you were all over the internet last week because you were at the Actor Awards.
19:35Oh, yes.
19:36Yes, and you gave out the award to Michael B. Jordan for Best Actor.
19:47Come on. It's like, why they got to show me with my mouth gap open?
19:52I mean, I just, like, I know. You were overjoyed.
19:55I was, I think that I'm that auntie at the party that's had one too many beers and just shows
20:03her ass too many times.
20:05Because that was that moment.
20:07Oh, no.
20:07I'm that, and I'm that parent at the, at the soccer game.
20:10I'm that parent that the referee's like, hold up, hold up.
20:13Chill out.
20:14You need to calm down.
20:16Yeah. No, you went for it. It was good.
20:18Yeah, it was great. It was celebrating each other.
20:20Yeah, and I didn't rip my dress. Well, I did rip my dress open.
20:23I did. I did rip my dress open.
20:24You did? But it's all good.
20:26Yeah, it's all fine.
20:29You can handle it. You've done, I mean, here I have a photo of you winning your Oscar.
20:34Look at this. That's what I'm doing.
20:38You didn't rip your dress that night.
20:40No.
20:40No.
20:41What do you, what do you remember about that, and how do you think of your Oscar now?
20:46Well, you know, I won an Oscar.
20:48Yeah.
20:49I mean, what do you think?
20:50But I mean, did you.
20:51But, but, but underneath that dress, this is what I think.
20:54Because I see them every single time.
20:57I have on platform sneakers that were especially made for me that were probably seven inches high.
21:03Really?
21:04Yeah.
21:05That's what I remember about that moment.
21:08You're wearing sneakers there?
21:09I, I was wearing sneakers right there.
21:11And what I remember about that, because my Madame Tussaud's picture.
21:17Yes.
21:18Is with that dress.
21:19You have your own wax figure.
21:21Yeah, so do you.
21:22I, I'm not, I'm not in the cool section though.
21:26I'm by the, I'm by the, I'm by the bathrooms.
21:29You know, once you get over the fact that it freaks you right the hell out.
21:32Did you freak out?
21:33I mean, it is.
21:34I freaked out.
21:34They do a great job.
21:36Look at this.
21:36Here's you with your wax figure.
21:39But I mean, did you.
21:41And people kept saying while you're looking at it, they keep saying, Miss Davis, Miss Davis,
21:45can you, do you have words to say?
21:47Everyone thinks I have words to say.
21:48Can you have words to say?
21:50Do you have words to say?
21:51And I couldn't say anything.
21:52I was freaked right the hell out.
21:55Well, it's odd.
21:56It's odd looking at yourself and hanging out with yourself.
21:58And, and, and I saw my booty.
22:00They put, they had the booty out there.
22:02I saw the ring I had on.
22:04I saw the little divot in my nose.
22:06I saw my eyelashes.
22:08It's freaked me right the hell out.
22:10No.
22:10How about the eye, when they're doing the eyeballs?
22:12The eyeballs were freaky.
22:14No.
22:14I'm telling you.
22:15They opened up a suitcase for like a hundred eyeballs.
22:18And you're like.
22:19I'm like, just pick an eyeball.
22:21Like, whatever.
22:22Yeah.
22:22Like, I've seen this on Dateline.
22:23Yeah.
22:23It frightened me.
22:24But, but it's amazing what a great job they do.
22:27You know what?
22:28I'm going to just say it.
22:29Go ahead.
22:30I'm going to be that auntie at the party with too many beers.
22:33Yeah.
22:34I think I have the best wax figure.
22:36Whoa!
22:38Come on now.
22:39What?
22:42All right.
22:42Listen.
22:43All right.
22:43Listen.
22:44No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
22:45No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
22:47Maybe Jeff Goldblum is a close second.
22:51But mine, y'all will see.
22:53You go to Madame Tussauds, especially in L.A., you're going to see I'm the best.
22:57Oh, my gosh.
22:59All right.
23:00That's good.
23:00Next time you come on, I'm going to show who it is.
23:02I'm the best.
23:03I'm the best.
23:03I'm the best.
23:03Next time you're on, I'm going to show a list to see you.
23:05You're always doing something different.
23:07That's why I love talking to you and having you on the show.
23:11And this is another one.
23:12Congratulations on this book.
23:15Judgestone with James Patterson.
23:18Viola, what can't you do?
23:20No, there's a lot of things I can't do.
23:22No, no, no.
23:23I don't think so.
23:23Like I'm a really crappy driver.
23:25I'm not a very good...
23:27No, no, no.
23:27I don't want to go down that list.
23:28We don't go down that rabbit hole.
23:30But I'm very proud of this book.
23:32Congratulations.
23:33You're getting great reviews on this.
23:35You put out a memoir.
23:36Went to number one.
23:37You've put out a children's book.
23:38You've won every award.
23:39You've won a Grammy, a Tony, an Emmy, an Oscar.
23:42You're Egon.
23:43Yes.
23:44Yes.
23:45You've done it all.
23:47You've done everything.
23:49How does this book come about?
23:51How do you get to collab with James Patterson?
23:53Your agent calls you and says,
23:55do you want to collaborate with James Patterson?
23:58That's really...
23:58And then you're thinking to yourself,
24:00are you kidding me?
24:01Yes.
24:01And then they told me the premise
24:04and I said, oh, I could do that.
24:06I could do that.
24:07And then all of a sudden,
24:08you're collaborating with James Patterson.
24:10You're giving him notes
24:11while you're driving the soccer practice.
24:13Really?
24:14Which, by the way,
24:15talking and giving notes while I'm driving
24:18is extremely dangerous.
24:19Yeah.
24:20Yeah, you're really not good at any of that stuff.
24:22Yeah, yeah.
24:22It's extremely dangerous.
24:23But it's just been...
24:25I think it's a great book.
24:27That was crushing.
24:27It's getting great reviews.
24:28And my question, of course, is,
24:31is this going to be a movie
24:32or a series or something?
24:34Why do people always want
24:36to fast track everything?
24:38I just can't...
24:39Because I kind of want to be there.
24:40Because you want the scoop.
24:41Yes.
24:41I want to be there
24:42before it becomes one of these things
24:44that I said.
24:44Why?
24:45Because then maybe
24:45you put me on the poster or something.
24:49Jimmy Fallon called it.
24:51He said it.
24:51Do you act?
24:52No, no.
24:53I can't act in it.
24:54I can't...
24:54You want to be one of the lawyers?
24:56Yeah.
24:57You want me to ruin your movie?
25:00No, I think it would be
25:01a great limited series.
25:03You do?
25:03Yes, I do.
25:04And I think that I would be
25:06a good and a formidable Judge Stone.
25:08But I think that this book right here...
25:11That's the scoop I wanted.
25:12That's everything I wanted.
25:14You gave it to me.
25:15I love you.
25:16That's all I wanted right there.
25:17How do we describe
25:18what the story is to everybody?
25:21Well, the story is about
25:22a 13-year-old girl
25:23who gets raped,
25:24has an abortion,
25:25and her doctor
25:27gets brought up
25:28on murder charges
25:29and is facing 99 years in prison
25:31and it becomes
25:32this huge courtroom scene
25:34in this small town in Alabama.
25:36Oof.
25:37That's some...
25:38That's a powerful...
25:40That's a powerful...
25:40Now, that's what I'm saying right there.
25:41That's got to be a series.
25:43That's a limited series right there.
25:44Yes.
25:45And, you know,
25:46and me and James
25:47just like that, y'all.
25:48Yeah.
25:49Like that.
25:49Yeah.
25:50You crush it.
25:50Keep crushing it.
25:52It's a great book.
25:52Keep doing these things.
25:54I love you so much.
25:55Come back whenever you want.
25:56You're the best.
25:57Viola Davis, come on.

28:37it's Joe, it's myself.
28:39We're going to have
28:39a couple of surprise guests.
28:41It is going to be an event.
28:43It is not a comedy show.
28:44It's a comedy event.
28:45Oh, I love that.
28:47Comedy event.
28:48Are you, you've done appearances.
28:51And we excluded Netflix.
28:53Ha!
28:55They're not happy about that
28:56because they did want it
28:57to be something.
28:57Yeah.
28:58Part.
28:58So if you, yeah.
28:59Joe's like,
28:59don't burn my deal, dude.
29:01Don't burn my deal.
29:02Yeah, so if you're not,
29:03if you're not there,
29:04you won't see it.
29:05That's what makes it special.
29:06Yeah.
29:07That's what makes it special.
29:08You have to be there
29:08in order to enjoy that event.
29:11I know you guys
29:12made appearances
29:12on each other's shows.
29:13Whose idea was it
29:14to have a headline show?
29:15This one?
29:16This one, I, you know,
29:18I was doing the forum.
29:19Like, I did a bunch
29:20of sold-out forums in L.A.
29:23And then, like, he does,
29:24you know, he does, like,
29:25Staples,
29:26and he's doing
29:26all these other shows.
29:27So I would jump on his stage,
29:28and then he would jump
29:29on my stage.
29:30Yeah.
29:30And then backstage,
29:31at the forum,
29:32I just looked at him,
29:33I go, we should, like,
29:33do something together.
29:35You know what I mean?
29:35Let's just do one show together,
29:36and let's see how many
29:37we can do.
29:37I was thinking forum.
29:39Yeah.
29:39And he was like,
29:40yeah, like, so-fi?
29:44That's a pretty good game.
29:45He's like, like, so-fi?
29:46I'm like, no,
29:47not like so-fi.
29:48It's a stadium.
29:49Yeah, we're not playing football.
29:51Like, we're doing stand-up.
29:52And he was like,
29:53hey, man.
29:54Let's go big.
29:54He was like,
29:55yeah, let's bet on ourselves.
29:56And then he looked at me,
29:57he goes, trust me.
29:59Wow.
29:59Yeah, he goes,
30:00trust me on this one.
30:01And I go,
30:02I don't want to trust you
30:03on this one.
30:03Yeah, I don't know.
30:04Again, it's too much.
30:05You always want to find out
30:06what your ceiling is.
30:08You know, it's like,
30:08we've been doing this
30:09for so many years,
30:10combined total.
30:11We got 60 years
30:11of comedy experience.
30:13I looked at his numbers,
30:15looked at my numbers,
30:16looked at the amount of shows,
30:17looked at the best market,
30:18and it just made all the sense.
30:19I'm like, this has to work.
30:21It has to work.
30:23And, you know.
30:24Did anyone inspire you on this?
30:25Who?
30:26Math.
30:27Yes.
30:28Math.
30:28I was thinking.
30:29This plus this plus this.
30:31Yeah, yeah.
30:31I was thinking.
30:32Right here.
30:33Yeah.
30:34I was thinking, like,
30:35when Chappelle.
30:36Let's do some guys
30:36in their prime.
30:37When Chappelle and Rock
30:39did a show.
30:40Oh, yeah.
30:41That was a big deal.
30:42Yeah, it was beautiful.
30:43I did want to mention,
30:44by the way,
30:44you're going to announce
30:45another one night only,
30:47this time in London.
30:48Yes.
30:48At the O2 Arena.
30:50Yeah.
30:50O2 Arena, yeah.
30:51And tickets go on sale
30:52on Friday.
30:53Yes.
30:53That's massive.
30:54It's cool, yeah.
30:55It's fun doing this, man.
30:56Oh, let's not forget,
30:57like, Kevin Hart.
30:58Kevin Hart did Philly.
30:59You know, he did the stadium there.
31:01Of course.
31:01And then this one
31:02did Dodger Stadium.
31:04But Kevin Hart's show
31:05is what inspired me
31:06to want to attempt Dodger Stadium.
31:07I went there.
31:08I attended the taping of it.
31:10And I was row two,
31:11and I watched him,
31:12and I said,
31:12you know what?
31:13Freaking Kevin, way to go.
31:14One day I'm going to go.
31:14And it showed me,
31:15if Kevin can do it,
31:16there's no reason
31:17why I can't do it.
31:18Yeah.
31:18After this show,
31:19after this show,
31:22I promise you,
31:23after this show,
31:23other comics
31:24are going to see that,
31:25and they're going to start
31:25taking more chances
31:26because there's no reason
31:27why, you know,
31:28comedy shouldn't be
31:29at the top right there.
31:31That's it.
31:32We got two heavy hitters.
31:34The best.
31:35Yeah, Gabe just told me
31:36in the green room,
31:36he was like,
31:37hey, let's do LAX next.
31:38I'm like, what?
31:40Okay, exactly.
31:41Yeah, yeah, what do you do?
31:42You just do a whole country.
31:43Yeah, yeah, yeah.
31:44But how long have you guys
31:45known each other
31:46in this business?
31:48We both had hair
31:49when we first met.
31:50We both had hair,
31:51and I was just kind of like,
31:52that's what we're doing.
31:53No, it's nice.
31:54Yeah, yeah, yeah.
31:54Yeah, yeah, yeah.
31:55That's sexy.
31:58It's been like, what?
31:59Over 20?
32:00Maybe 25 years?
32:01Like 20 years?
32:02When I first met Joe,
32:03he was working at a bank.
32:04He had just had his son.
32:06That's what I remember.
32:07We were at the Laugh Factory
32:08in Hollywood.
32:08Wow.
32:09Yeah, and he used to come
32:11to the Laugh Factory,
32:12and he was already
32:13like selling out improvs,
32:14so he had like a lot
32:15of new money.
32:16Like, you know,
32:17when someone has new money,
32:18they don't know
32:18what to do with it,
32:19and I just remember him
32:20pulling up, like, two Hummers.
32:21Not one Hummer.
32:22Two Hummers.
32:23Like, he had his boy
32:24driving the other Hummer,
32:25and I was just like,
32:26wait, what?
32:27Wow.
32:27He's like, yeah,
32:27check it out.
32:28I got a PS4 in here.
32:29It's like, he's got
32:30a big screen TV
32:31in the back seat.
32:32This guy's doing it right.
32:33Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
32:34I was so stupid.
32:35And seriously, guys,
32:36I didn't have anything
32:37growing up,
32:38so when I did start
32:39making money,
32:40I went full rapper.
32:42I did.
32:42I did.
32:43I had, yeah,
32:44I bought two Hummers,
32:45and they both had
32:46DirecTV in the Hummers.
32:47It was the first time
32:48I ever paid for cable.
32:50Ever.
32:51But also,
32:52besides this giant thing,
32:54which, again,
32:55congratulations on,
32:56you've done some
32:56other remarkable things, too.
32:58I know that, Joe,
32:59you had your handprints

33:02Oh, yeah.
33:04That was, yeah,
33:05that just happened.
33:07Joe Coy,
33:08what are you talking about?
33:09Did you freak out?
33:10Yeah, I freaked out.
33:11This is bigger
33:12than a dream, right?
33:12Yeah, this was,
33:13this was crazy,
33:14because I remember
33:14going there
33:15and sticking my hand

33:17and, you know,
33:17doing the whole thing,

33:20Yeah.
33:20And then it was that day,
33:21and when I was doing
33:22the speech,
33:23it was crazy.
33:24And the people that came out
33:25and talked for me
33:26was sweet.
33:27It was like Tiffany Haddish,
33:28Gabe, was there,
33:29and Martin Lawrence was there,
33:31and it was cool.
33:32But Wange Morris
33:33from Boyz II Men
33:34was there.
33:34It was just amazing.
33:35And by the way,
33:35it was one of those things
33:36where I'm sitting in the crowd,
33:37I was there for his event,
33:38and I'm looking around,
33:39I'm like,
33:39I had no idea Joe
33:41knew so many people,
33:42like, in the business.
33:43I'm like,
33:44I'm talking to Babyface back.

35:36Well, look and catch their breath at a crime scene
35:40Was born and raised to keep dark findings in my mind
35:52Well, numbers blurring, streets are feeling different
35:56I'm losing track of all of God's indifference
35:59Who gets by?
36:07Well, walking with a ghost that helped was tearing me to shreds
36:10I had never known my name until you spoke it from your chest
36:14Yes, the heavens opened up and called me and I stared and said
36:18Oh, yeah, that's forever
36:25Partly and just you

37:05Who gets through?
37:13So damn, the bastards call them out
37:15Everyone they start from doing just an inch of wood
37:18They hate those up
37:19Forever war
37:20It pays the hell
37:21That's everything that I've been told
37:23Because I just saw the heavens open up

38:13Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
38:15I know that I'll cry out with a savior
38:19I said, the name of the master's calling out
38:21You're all this, I'm doing just an angel
38:24They hate themselves forevermore
38:26They hate the hell, they're everything that I can tell
