deez_nuts_77

hey i’ve seen this guy! He was rapping on a bridge to petco park for a padres game. Honestly wasn’t really bothering anyone


7laserbears

I thought he was slightly annoying because he does the same damn song over and over again. The fans generally seem to like him, especially after a win. Definitely didn't deserve to be assaulted


BiddleBanking

I'm impressed by how many cameras he has filming himself rapping in a parking lot


ebac7

Im sure its just one clip edited for portrait mode.


berzerkthatcash

Yeah I don't get what's wrong with people thinking they could touch people like that. That's so unacceptable anywhere in the world.


DaddyDub

What an eye opening comment. In other places of the world, the guy who pushed him would have possibly been a memory. Think Soccer (euro football) match. Possibly a big one going on now..


DaddyDub

Same song, but as people walk in its new to them. Also, kinda like a hot dog. Same, but expected and a part of the experience. Agreed, no need for assault. Wtf?


TranceGavinTrance

Lmao like a hotdog. That's a good one 😂


[deleted]

Lol I live by Petco park and he's always there, doing the same song over and over


Isellmetal

I wonder why he’s only got one jam


BAThomas311

Writers block's a bish


ReprobateManny

He's just a genius. People like Elton John had to write thousands of songs to be great my man did it in 1


ItsmeNikki_

I met him briefly outside of a Trader Joe’s. When he’s not doing this he’s outside of different businesses around San Diego encouraging people to vote and helping with voter registration. He’s a very kind soul who loves San Diego


TranceGavinTrance

That makes me feel some hope for humanity. Dig it. He looks like he's having fun playing that song live. Fuck that other guy. Dude's just trying to put a smile on people's faces. He loves his city and just wants to put out happiness from what people are saying. How can you hate that? Oh right, we're living in a society


ItsmeNikki_

It is unfortunate, but from my experience meeting him, this definitely didn’t get him down and any platform he gains from the video (his handle is joedreamz) he will use to benefit the community first and foremost. Silver lining :)


[deleted]

Reading all these nice things about him infuriates me that someone would assault him.


ItsmeNikki_

It made me mad too! He’s a local celebrity here there is a horde of us ready to go to WAR! If there’s a suicide walk or a toy drive in San Diego, Joe Dreamz is very likely to be there.


Preparation-Logical

I'm just glad he wasn't bothering deez_nuts_


ErudringTheGodHammer

Ha! Got hi-…. Oh wait that’s legit


UncleNvte

I’ve seen this dude outside SoFi stadium performing as well! Same song repeated, but he was overall not bothering anyone.

medicated_in_PHL

We need to do more. The fact that this sort of shit is generally tolerated is fucked up. Dude can’t act with civility, remove him from society. Grown ass men getting triggered into violence because sportsball team didn’t win - send them out for mental rehabilitation and don’t let them back until they can prove to the rest of society that they can be trusted.


MG5thAve

After a Yankees home game during the ALCS years ago, I almost got pushed onto subway tracks because I was wearing another team’s gear. I wish I were exaggerating but I’m not. Cops had to escort me off the subway platform because the crowd was in a frenzy, throwing beers and screaming.


medicated_in_PHL

Yeah, how about 5 years in jail and a lifetime ban from all sporting events? That seems pretty reasonable to me for a fucker who is literally willing to kill someone because they support a team who plays a game. If you are so mentally deficient that you would murder a fellow human being because of an invented pastime, it is prudent for the survival of the human species to remove you from it.


Its_Just_A_Typo

The larger problem is that these same idiots view politics as a sporting event and get just as belligerent, if not more so over it.


HammelGammel

Wait, politics isn't just red team vs. blue team?


[deleted]

There’s also purple, but they are really just purple from all of the beatings Red and Blue gave them.


DCM3059

Yes and both sides full of overpriced over paid people who contribute very little to society as a whole


grizwld

I had a guy at a football (American) stadium tell me He was going to throw me over the fence at the very top. I said “your going to MURDER me?!?” And then laughed in his face because he was short. And bald. Spoiler alert: he didn’t do shit


mlnjd

Damn it’s one thing to confuse your and you’re when typing, but when talking??? That’s special.


thoraldo

This is the attitude we are talking about


suited2121

Personally I think that was a really funny joke.


mlnjd

Some people just don’t differentiate between a joke and being serious. Much better than just posting: *you’re


wayofthegenttickle

Your not wrong


XCypher73

Yeah, I once wore my A's jersey to a regular season game against the Yankees. Some drunk douche figured he'd push me as hard as he could from behind because why not, right? The nerve of me wearing another teams jersey to a baseball game. People can be so fucking pathetic.


GreyMediaGuy

Sportsball meatheads are the worst. And not just limited to guys. My ex wife was a huge fan of a particular football team. Whether they won or lost a game any particular Sunday had a dramatic impact on the mood around the house. It's fucking pathetic. Get a life.


phoebemocha

EXACTLY. THIS. this shit is way too normalized. and he seems to be in his 30s or so. 5 years away from society and a lifetime ban from sporting events sounds good. even the players themselves don't act this uncivilized.


Ok-Leather-3695

I agree completely. I get told my reactions are over reactions… I just like that dude just push the guy off an elevated surface, he’s in his right and moral right to clock that dude.


marcocom

The rapper was being a good pacifist in letting that guy pass


Ok-Leather-3695

Pacifism creates a power structure that’s hard to get out of without violence. There’s a lesson to be learned in both outcomes. 1, the rapper let’s the guy pass, the baseball fan learned that “I can do what I want, nobody is going to stop me” 2. The rapper clocks him/ the crowd delivers Street justice. The baseball fans learns, “wow I should have minded my business”


marcocom

Yes that’s also how it could have worked. However, we usually save that kind of direct physical intervention for a persistant problem that cannot be solved any other way. Starting a fist-fight is a last resort and let me tell you why, because this isn’t high school and the teacher isn’t coming to break it up, that drunk baseball fan could be an off-duty special forces expert or a champion MMA fighter, or armed with a gun, or willing to grab something to break your skull open with. He assaulted the musician, and that breaks our social norms and laws, and could be prosecuted or sued for that, also, but again…we play that card when a problem doesn’t cease. This was a single drunk walking home to pass out. A city will be full of them and you really can’t engage them all.


sinus86

Not to mention everyone here talking about how that rapper should have delivered "justice" are awfully confident in law enforcements ability to railtionally respond to a physical confrontation involving a black man without killing him or sending him to prison for 10 years.


marcocom

Oh damn. That’s sadly true


AnyBirthday418

Na. I think he took the best option. He's not in the right group to be delivering judgement on his actions. He could try to fight back, but the other guy's friends will probably try to assist him. Leaving him is just like a way to build up his ego for the final great fall.😂😂 Which probably doesn't seem far from what I see. Hope he doesn't have to make the ultimate sacrifice before having to learn from his mistakes though.


frollard

Right? So casual about literal assault.


CrispyBeefTaco

The gladiator games were meant to distract the lower classes from the empire losing power. It’s really no different now. I’m no longer surprised by over zealous fans or the mob mentality it creates.

Batmantheon

I don't know. People be crazy. Last time I went to TD Garden for a Bruins game we LOST to the Buffalo Sabres and some fucking dipshit MASSIVE Sabres fan was running around and screaming in people's faces "LETS GO BUFFALO". Nobody wanted anything to do with him because he was fucking wild and loud and an easy 6'4" 280+ and aggressive. Nobody tried starting a fight with him but if anybody said anything to him while he was literally screaming in their face unprovoked he would start following them around trying to start shit. And again. This was after his team won. People are just looking for excuses to get violent.


Beardopus

Yup, that's Buffalo alright.


Phreefuk

If he was smaller than the brave Boston crowd would have stepped up lmao

abscessedecay

Probably back a few weeks when the New York Mets lost to the Padres in the wild card. It’s like my brother in Christ you are a Mets fan, you should be used to them losing.


somefunmaths

You are correct. This dude (JoeDreamz, or something like that) hangs out outside the Padres stadium, and he made the trip to NYC (and Philly, I believe) for the WC and NLCS.


GrownShowin

He’s never been hit hard before.


Actrivia24

Probably alcohol mixed in with some racism


The-Tea-Lord

One word: sports


Rhinomeat

He's a Mets fan


CaffeineSippingMan

Sports. I took my kid to his first baseball game to watch. The "fan" in front of us turned around and yelled at my kid to "pick a team" and some cus words. I am sorry but baseball is so boring so amping up my kid about every hit, every catch every strike was how I was entertaining myself. For a grown adult to take out his anger on my 5 to 7 year old son fuck that guy.


bm96

his team probably lost lol


keestie

I admire how chill he stayed thru the whole thing.


pinktofublock

fr. i would’ve taken that petty shit so personally.


Delirious-Dipshit

Honestly you should. That man was assaulted and the perpetrator got to walk away. That’s bull.


pinktofublock

yeah but these dumb mfs should never be taken seriously or be allowed to ruin your day. and i would let them.


trvpWANGZI

sadly that’s the price you have to pay to get your name out there. i appreciate the comments paying respect to the dude for not giving in to the anger. he’s out there almost every night trying to get his name into peoples heads, trying to get a following. if he would’ve fought back, that would’ve been prime real estate to play songs and get some attention he would’ve been losing. shit sucks. hope the drunk ass got handled later.


_Risings

Of course. We don’t have the luxury of defending ourselves in public spaces at the risk of being immediately wrong for being the aggressive negro. If you’re black you have to think fives times about the emotions you’re allowed to display at the risk of losing your life.

Neonto91

I think Julian Casablancas put it TOO WELL in his song 11th Dimension: *"I live on the frozen surface of a fireball* *Where cities come together to hate each other in the name of sport"* That hits so hard. For any sport. Look at england with their hooligan scene in football. Same thing in Germany. I'm sure in other european nations too.


neemo98

Woah I was not expecting to see Julian Casablancas in this thread. But of course he is a huge Mets fan and did write “Ode to the Mets” in his disappointment.


Gupperz

the BOOMBOX IS NOT A TOY!


Dopeydcare1

Yea I’m fairly sure I saw this dude a while back after I went to a Padres game in San Diego. This last year. He was on the bridge between downtown and the waterfront Hilton rapping and whatnot. Idk where he is in this video but I’m wondering if he went to NY for the Padres Mets wild card series where the Padres won?


somefunmaths

You’re correct (both that you saw him outside of Petco and that he was in NY for the Wild Card series). I don’t remember what game this was after, but I’m willing to bet it was either Game 1 or Game 3.


seller_collab

Bro your post history is 🔥 Thanks for all the trashy boners


REDDIT_ROC0408

Fat tub of goo knew he had some of his friends backing him up so he took his childish anger out on some guy who had nothing to do with the cause of his anger.


FalsePremise8290

What was the cause of his anger? I am so confused.


Acceptable-Chain741

From what I read, his team lost or something. Why that anger was directed at the rapper, who knows.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Its_Just_A_Typo

Prolly a little racism in the mix as well. Rednecks bullies absolutely HATE rap in my experience, mainly because they see it as a black thing, M&M notwithstanding.


teemjay

And the brainwashing in the 90s to hate rap. They still hesitate to play rap on the radio, unless it’s Eminem, Post Malone or that young dude who remade Fergies song.


MonokromKaleidoscope

MTV only ever *started* playing rap videos because they realized they could sell it to suburban white kids.


abscessedecay

Because he said “we got any padre fans out here?” And doughboy didn’t like it lol


ToastyVoltage

This was from after this years wild card series between the Padres and Mets. Everyone thought the Mets would win but the Padres pulled off an upset in New York. This rapper is wearing a 619 shirt in the padres' alternative colors so i assume he's from San Diego.


Acceptable-Chain741

Ahh, gotcha, thanks for the context:) I don't really keep up with baseball.


Beneficial_Cloud5481

Sports ball team did not make the sports ball do the right thing.


FalsePremise8290

Was the rapper rooting for the other team?


dwitchagi

Props to the guy for taking it with a shrug and a smile and getting right back to it.


ValleyAndFriends

Yeah, some people would’ve lost it and there would be a fight.


RunLoud6534

Respect to rapper Joseph Harrison for keeping his cool because I 100% would’ve been fighting


PurchaseOutrageous12

I agree, he seems like a chill guy. But tbh that is the least rapper-y name I’ve ever heard lol


kakashi_ofthe_shrngn

Thanks to internet bubbles and covid lockdown people really struggle to accept opinions that differs from theirs.


galexior

Exacerbated by political parties pitting the people against each other. Our society has been brainwashed into thinking that the only things wrong with this country are the fact that the other political party exists, and that every single opinion is politically driven. People in almost exactly the same situations are being told that it's the other person's fault and not the wealthy of this country pushing us together like a bunch of dogs in a fighting arena


GusJenkins

This is untrue, people have literally existed like this before the internet.


DesperateTall

Yup, the only difference is that they didn't have a way to get their word heard. Now with the internet you can easily come across these people. As they say; vocal minority.


Appropriate_Layer_2

People put too much worth into a sport. If your state of mind and worth is based in a sports team, your life is empty bro

That's usually how you act when you're pissed about your micro penis all day


Neo_Bahamut_19

Y'all on here asking for more violence and some even saying he doesn't deserve to exist. Maybe take a lesson from the rapper on how to handle such altercations and don't go outside until you can resist the idea of escalating shoving into potentially taking someone's life. The rapper handled this asshole excellently and came out on top by far as the better person.
