Morris, my brother.

Morris Chestnut (1:25)

Yes, sir.

Tank (1:26)

I mean, we've been doing this a month of Sundays. You know, I remember at one point, you know, I had a couple of hit records on the radio, Jay. Couple of hit records.

And what you thought you was doing? You know, I thought I was doing it. Okay? You know what it means. And then? You know, and so we're doing the celebrity basketball game, and I know the ladies is here to see me. You know what I'm saying? Because I got hit songs and I can hoop. You understand what I'm saying? I'm athletic, as they like to call it.

It's time to call the names. You understand what I'm saying? That said celebrities. I'm like, just be careful where you put me in the lineup. You know what I'm saying? Because whoever come after me, them screams might not be heard.

J. Valentine (2:08)

It's like when they had graduation and they'd be like, you know, just everybody, just clap a little.

Morris Chestnut (2:13)

Just clap a little.

Tank (2:14)

So, you know, I wanted to strategically be in the right position so I wouldn't shave nobody after the fact.

J. Valentine (2:20)

You know what I'm saying?

Tank (2:21)

You know how the celebrities can be a little, you know. So, he announced my name and the ladies scream. You know, I go out there and I run to the center of the court. I show them a little bit of a six pack because I have that on me.

J. Valentine (2:32)

Wait, wait, wait. You run to the court and pull up your shirt?

Tank (2:36)

Center court and pull up my shirt, J. You sick. That's what I do. That's the only reason why I'm here. You're sick, bro. And I get the screams, I get the love that I know I am due, that I am warranted.

And then they're gonna call another fella's name. Like, well, good luck to this guy. He's my friend, but I was like, I don't know how this is gonna go.

SPEAKER_3 (2:58)

Give it up for Morris Chestnut.

Tank (3:08)

So y'all, y'all like Morris?

Morris Chestnut (3:10)

Yeah.

Tank (3:11)

That's cool.

Morris Chestnut (3:13)

Oh, man.

Tank (3:14)

He proceeds to steal all the love and screams. Apparently, he looks better than me. He's from the magazine, man.

Apparently, I should shave all my hair off and just rock the coats.

J. Valentine (3:28)

I told you.

SPEAKER_4 (3:29)

I'm like...

J. Valentine (3:34)

don't listen.

SPEAKER_3 (3:35)

Fuck you, Jerry.

SPEAKER_4 (3:37)

The vision board is right here.

Tank (3:41)

Bro, you are just, I mean, you know, you are just a living legend, brother.

Just iconic in so many ways, man. More so, I think, you know, we're going to get to all the the talent and the success and all of these things, man. But from what I've known about you from the beginning is you are just a stand up human being. Thank you, man. Just a beautiful brother, man. So we salute that more than anything, especially in this place. You know what I mean? As it pertains to you being a family man and keeping all of those things in its proper perspective and honoring them the way you do. Like that to me, brother, that is, that's the study material.
