Aminé Rates Boy Bands, Nude Bicycling, and Wardrobe Malfunctions

[lively percussion music]

[drum roll]

When I was like six, my cousin, who's my age,

we were big Backstreet Boys and Spice Girls fans.

We got these new clothes that like our aunts bought us,

and then we would lock the door in the room,

and we were like, yo, how can we make this shit cooler?

And we were like eight.

And he just found a scissor and he started cutting

like the pants that our aunts bought us,

and we'd cut a little hole in our shirt and our hair,

and we came out like, yo, we the Backstreet Boys!

And they were like, no!

And they beat our ass.

[drum roll]

I don't like being chased,

like that's not my vibe.

Don't chase me.

I don't even like eating at a restaurant with my back

towards where people are walking,

just because I'm, it's a bit like yo,

like somebody could just like touch me.

And I don't, ugh, it's awkward.

I like something behind me always, like a wall.

Oh, pause, that was weird.

But bulls chasing me, not my vibe.

That's definitely overrated.

[drum roll]

Naked bike ride is underrated

'cause nobody knows about that shit.

I was like eight years old in Portland,

and my dad was like picking me up from school.

We stopped at a red light.

And my dad's like African,

he not with this whole American culture.

He doesn't fuck with it.

But we were sitting at the red light,

and like imagine like Jumanji, you know when all the animals

just start coming out of nowhere.

Like, we were at the red light, my dad was parked,

and all these naked people on bikes, like naked.

My dad was like,

and he covered my eyes and he was like cussing.

He was pissed,

'cause he just seen you know, like, imagine naked people,

you didn't even know it was naked bike ride day.

Naked people just started poppin' out, outta everywhere.

It was crazy.

Naked bike ride is definitely underrated because people

need to know about that.

And it's fire,

'cause like girls I used to have a crush on in high school

would go to it, I'd be like.

They'd post pictures and I'd be like, word, tight.

[drum roll]

A bit overrated for me.

I love when Lil Uzi does it, though.

Uzi just fire doing it.

Like, he's crazy.

I just don't like when people touch me too much,

so it's not my vibe.

I think if I stage dived a bunch of,

I would like freeze into shock because of anxiety.

And it's a lot of sweaty people and hands.

Although I love when Mac DeMarco does it,

he's like fire at doing that.

But not my vibe, it's a bit overrated.

[drum roll]

They're underrated, yo.

Like when Janet Jackson's titty came out, that was funny.

But she was like confident when she did it,

it wasn't an accident.

She was like, I don't care.

I'ma do me.

I think that was cool.

Like, if that happened in 2017 to me, like,

people would be way more cooler with it but like,

at that time everybody was like, whoa!

Lenny Kravitz, though, that's a bit much.

If that had happened to me on accident without me knowing,

I'd feel super embarrassed, yeah.

[drum roll]

Oh you mean like chains.

You was using rap lingo right there.

You sounded like Young Thug.

Like, I'm not a very flashy dude.

Like, when I see Thug in it, he looks amazing.

So it's for some, to each his own, you know what I mean?

It looks good on some people.

I wouldn't say it's underrated

because tons of people have it.

And it's not overrated because I like it on some people.

So for me, it's underrated because I need to,

I think I should rock some more, right?

I gotta get my bank account and my savings

and my checking,

it's like, yeah, I gotta figure that out.

But we'll get it soon.
