Michael Jai White engaged in a discussion about fellow actor Terrence Howard's refusal to pay taxes due to the historical context of slavery. The clip revealed that Howard owes $1 million in back taxes and has left voicemails claiming the descendants of slaves should own property and not pay taxes in the United States due to centuries of forced labor without compensation. Despite support for the notion of reparations, it was noted that this argument is unlikely to hold legal weight to absolve tax debts. Acknowledging Howard's talent, White hoped he could use it to navigate the situation and also touched on the actor's struggle to cover his rent with a $12,000 compensation from the film "Hustle and Flow." The conversation shifted to the topics of navigating wages and White's focus on performance rather than monetary compensation, leading him to prefer back-end agreements that provide ongoing earnings as a movie's success grows.
