1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,480
Speaker 1: I'm just proud to be me, and I think that's

2
00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:05,760
Speaker 1: what I want girls to take away, like, just be

3
00:00:05,760 --> 00:00:08,400
Speaker 1: be proud to be you. I think that's the most important.

4
00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:14,040
Speaker 1: And I think through the experiences of my early status

5
00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:16,639
Speaker 1: in life, I think that's what just made me comfortable

6
00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:19,119
Speaker 1: in my own skin. So it's just like you don't

7
00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:28,080
Speaker 1: like me, but I like me, and that's what matters.

Speaker 3: Waiting is here today.

17
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:03,120
Speaker 2: Thank you.

18
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:08,800
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, I did I did that? And

19
00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:12,200
Speaker 1: that Okay, I'm not a side girl. You gotta go

20
00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:13,959
Speaker 1: ahead and do that. I love that.

21
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:16,039
Speaker 2: I love that. For you, what are you most proud of?

22
00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:17,280
Speaker 2: Of everything you've done so far?

23
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:22,120
Speaker 1: What am I the most proud of? M I would say,

24
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:25,240
Speaker 1: my recent project Hella Pressure. I know it sounds very marketing,

25
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 1: no no, but I think that it's the first time

26
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:31,600
Speaker 1: where there's two songs on there that I really love,

27
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 1: where I really found songs that weren't a sample that

28
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:37,839
Speaker 1: I felt like it was me only because I felt

29
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:41,280
Speaker 1: like my niche has become sampling. However, I do want

30
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:43,839
Speaker 1: to get to a point where it's an original beat

31
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 1: and it's like, oh, this sounds like a Sweetie record.

32
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 2: You don't want to be just stuck in one thing.

33
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:51,640
Speaker 1: No, absolutely not, because I think that as artists either

34
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:55,280
Speaker 1: grow or you don't. And I think that through my evolution,

35
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 1: I realized that I can't always just do sample songs.

36
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:00,840
Speaker 1: If I'm being real. You know, I loved to do them. Yeah,

37
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 1: it provides for you, thank you, and I'm not gonna stop.

38
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:09,080
Speaker 1: But I wanted to really challenge myself and yeah, I.

39
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,200
Speaker 2: Love that for you. And the project is Hell the Pressure.

40
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:14,560
Speaker 2: I know that's the title, But what is the what

41
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:16,600
Speaker 2: season of your life are you in? And what do

42
00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 2: we see on this album?

43
00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:22,240
Speaker 1: Through this journey in my career, I've overcome hurdles and

44
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:25,320
Speaker 1: challenges and always roast the occasion. You know, my parents

45
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 1: raised me like that, like don't back down, just get

46
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:29,720
Speaker 1: through it. So I think that if I was to

47
00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:32,800
Speaker 1: like label this air in my career, it'd be like

48
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:34,120
Speaker 1: being under pressure.

49
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 2: What is the pressure though? Is it pressure that people

50
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:38,240
Speaker 2: put on you, a pressure you put on yourself like

51
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:43,520
Speaker 2: both funthoth? But what is that? Because people may not

52
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:44,680
Speaker 2: know the inside of your life.

53
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 1: Right with my release of Icy Girl, it almost broke

54
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:54,359
Speaker 1: me into the industry instantaneously to where it went from

55
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,680
Speaker 1: I'm just doing it for fun. So now I'm being

56
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:58,919
Speaker 1: compared to all these people to now being critiqued and

57
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 1: just like wait, hold on, hold on, I just got here,

58
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,400
Speaker 1: pump the break. Let me enjoyed a moment. But you know,

59
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:07,919
Speaker 1: the industry is an industry, so you know, I'm very competitive.

60
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:10,720
Speaker 1: So if I'm not performing at a level I feel

61
00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:13,359
Speaker 1: like I should be performing it, I'm taking the pressure

62
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:16,360
Speaker 1: that's given to me externally, and then it becomes internal

63
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:18,880
Speaker 1: pressure because I'm internalizing all of these emotions.

64
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:21,840
Speaker 2: I wonder for you, as like an artist is like

65
00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:27,080
Speaker 2: its fan pressure. It's like label pressure, just expectations, people

66
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 2: pitting you against other people. I just wonder, like, what's

67
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:32,560
Speaker 2: been the toughest part of that to get through for you.

68
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:35,280
Speaker 1: I think it's the culmination of all of them. I

69
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:39,040
Speaker 1: think that there's healthy pressure, you know, because pressure pressure

70
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:42,080
Speaker 1: is when you challenge yourself to be better, and when

71
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:44,440
Speaker 1: you challenge yourself to try a new sound, or when

72
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:46,840
Speaker 1: you challenge yourself to think outside of you know, your

73
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:50,000
Speaker 1: previous thinking habits. So I think that when you use

74
00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 1: it and you're like, okay, I'm growing myself to be

75
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:54,760
Speaker 1: a better human, a better artists, a better woman, it

76
00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 1: has positive results. But if you're just internalizing all of this,

77
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 1: all of these critiques, sometimes it can affect your mental health.

78
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:04,600
Speaker 1: So I think it's good to just take the pressure,

79
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 1: you know, with the grain of salt.

80
00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,840
Speaker 2: You ever notice how everything keeps going up? I mean

81
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:12,240
Speaker 2: rent is going up, Streaming services are going up. Even

82
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 2: like your favorite burrito plays all of a sudden wants

83
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 2: to charge you for salsa. You go to the supermarket,

84
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 2: they want to charge you extra for the bag. It's

85
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,560
Speaker 2: kind of crazy out here. The good thing is with

86
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:22,919
Speaker 2: boost Mobile, you and your phone bill do not have

87
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:24,719
Speaker 2: to play that game. You don't have to play the

88
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 2: will this go up soon? Game? Why? Because boost Mobile

96
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:53,800
Speaker 2: Unlimited plan. The last episode we did carry Hilson and

97
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:55,520
Speaker 2: we were talking about because she went through a lot

98
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 2: of shit in her career. Yeah, but she came in

99
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:00,720
Speaker 2: her career social media wasn't what it was, and then

100
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 2: it became what it was. While she made some mistakes,

101
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,400
Speaker 2: and you know, when you're an artist in your public figure,

102
00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 2: now it's just a different level of scrutiny, eyeballs, all

103
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 2: that stuff. But you came in and it was already

104
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:16,920
Speaker 2: like that. Yeah, like out the Gay Day one, they

105
00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:19,839
Speaker 2: put you on a little platform for everybody to have

106
00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:23,920
Speaker 2: an opinion about a thing. I just wonder what that

107
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:27,360
Speaker 2: immediate time was like for you adjusting to that.

108
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:33,520
Speaker 1: Honestly, it's terrifying, but it's made me mentally strong, mentally tough,

109
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:35,120
Speaker 1: because now I see things and not just be like

110
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 1: all right, then go about my day like y'all just trolling.

111
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:41,839
Speaker 1: And I hope that everyone can like adopt that perspective

112
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 1: of social media because a lot of people, if they

113
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,960
Speaker 1: don't realize that they're harming a lot of people hearts

114
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,720
Speaker 1: and minds. They're just doing it for clickbait, They're just

115
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:52,440
Speaker 1: doing it for reaction, they're just doing it for dark humor,

116
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,680
Speaker 1: whatever it is, at the expense of someone's mental health.

117
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:58,239
Speaker 1: If we were able to look at it from that lens, like, Okay,

118
00:05:58,240 --> 00:05:59,800
Speaker 1: these people have nothing else to do with their lives,

119
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:01,880
Speaker 1: why they're doing it. I think it'll save a lot

120
00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:04,880
Speaker 1: of people. But I know what it feels like to

121
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:08,000
Speaker 1: be trending for days or weeks, people just talking.

122
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 2: What do you do when you what do you do?

123
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:14,839
Speaker 1: Where I just delete that app? You have to, because

124
00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:17,120
Speaker 1: if it's tempting and it's habitual to like wake up

125
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:19,200
Speaker 1: and just click on it and then you're reminded of

126
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:21,839
Speaker 1: this is what they're talking about. But it takes real

127
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:26,279
Speaker 1: discipline because you know, sometimes you feel disconnected, but you know,

128
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:28,800
Speaker 1: delete the app, talk to talk to people who love

129
00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:31,240
Speaker 1: you and who uplift you, and actually talk about what's

130
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:32,960
Speaker 1: going on in your mind just so that you're not

131
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:33,920
Speaker 1: festering it.

132
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,080
Speaker 2: That's so good that you're able to do that, because

133
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:37,600
Speaker 2: sometimes people hold all that stuff in.

134
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:40,000
Speaker 1: Well, what you've been through it so many times, it's

135
00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:41,680
Speaker 1: just like you don't want to continue to be in

136
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:44,600
Speaker 1: that same position over and over again because it's detrimental

137
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:45,839
Speaker 1: to your mind.

138
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, you seem from the outside to manage it well,

139
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 2: do you not?

140
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 1: Or not? I manage it?

141
00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:50,440
Speaker 2: Well, you do?

142
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:52,320
Speaker 1: I think that's one of my superpowers, is it?

143
00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:54,359
Speaker 2: Yeah? Well, then you should do like a class or

144
00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 2: something a mentorship program where you teach people how to

145
00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 2: do that. I would like to. I would like, what

146
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:01,400
Speaker 2: is the number one What is the number one tip?

147
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 1: You would say, Let me think about one of my

148
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 1: case studies. Okay, you have a few that I got

149
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:14,000
Speaker 1: a few. Let me do it with responding, right, Yeah,

150
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:20,480
Speaker 1: so I gotta roll. I gotta roll for myself, right,

151
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:25,040
Speaker 1: I wrote. If I want to respond to something, I

152
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 1: get myself a five minute timer and if I still

153
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:31,880
Speaker 1: feel intensely about that reply, then I'll post it five

154
00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:37,560
Speaker 1: minute rule. I set my timer, not because I'll be like,

155
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:39,720
Speaker 1: some of my responses are so crazy and I'm really

156
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:42,000
Speaker 1: happy that I wasn't impostive with it, but you know,

157
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 1: like sometimes I might be a different girl five minutes later.

158
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:49,520
Speaker 1: So I really for myself that way. And so like

159
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:52,480
Speaker 1: when I post something and it's a reclad back or response,

160
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 1: like I'm standing on it.

161
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:56,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, you meant that I had time to think about it.

162
00:07:56,240 --> 00:08:01,280
Speaker 2: It was premeditating, it was okay. So number one rule

163
00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:04,960
Speaker 2: of managing outside noise and trolling and things like that

164
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,920
Speaker 2: social media is to give yourself a five minute rule.

165
00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 1: If you want to respond, you want to respond if

166
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:11,760
Speaker 1: you just being torn up on the internet just to

167
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,480
Speaker 1: lead the apps, because you're not doing anything for yourself.

168
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:17,560
Speaker 1: You know, you're only just like feeding yourself these things

169
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:19,800
Speaker 1: that are negative. But what I like to do is

170
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:22,200
Speaker 1: I like to talk to my parents, like, hey, this

171
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:24,680
Speaker 1: is happening or so and so this and that, Like

172
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:26,360
Speaker 1: they give me like some of the best advice.

173
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,040
Speaker 2: That's so good. Your mom your parents are young too, right,

174
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:31,520
Speaker 2: they had you young? Yeah your mom was I think

175
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:33,480
Speaker 2: I've heard that somewhere she was seventeen, right, Yeah, So

176
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:36,080
Speaker 2: you guys are kind of like, I don't know, I

177
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:38,440
Speaker 2: have friends that are like fifteen years to age difference.

178
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 2: So like my friends, uh, huh. So you guys are

179
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:44,360
Speaker 2: still close enough where she can understand probably your life, right, Yeah.

180
00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 1: And what's interesting about that is like I've gotten too

181
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:51,480
Speaker 1: a place where I'm comfortable in like my adulthood and

182
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:54,960
Speaker 1: womanhood to just tell her everything now. So hearing her

183
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:56,840
Speaker 1: feedback is really fun because at first, I was like

184
00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 1: kind of uncomfortable because you know, we didn't have a

185
00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:03,200
Speaker 1: kind of talks when I was a kid, you know,

186
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:05,320
Speaker 1: whether if there was like personal or just about my

187
00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:07,640
Speaker 1: other friends or about what I was going through. I

188
00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:11,120
Speaker 1: was very private, very like quiet yet guarded with my stuff.

189
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 1: But now I tell her stuff and her advice is

190
00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 1: just so good.

191
00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:18,680
Speaker 2: I'm like, you should have a podcast, give you mama podcast. Right.

192
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:20,520
Speaker 1: She's a very very wise woman.

193
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:22,840
Speaker 2: That's really cute. She must be really proud of you.

194
00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:25,679
Speaker 2: And what about when you're going through things? How does

195
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:26,320
Speaker 2: that affect um?

196
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,960
Speaker 1: I think it relieves them to know that what they

197
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,480
Speaker 1: know what I'm going through, that I'm okay. I think

198
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,720
Speaker 1: when we have long streaks of just like not talking

199
00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:37,800
Speaker 1: to each other, that's when they start to like wonder

200
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:39,839
Speaker 1: and worry. But as long as I'm communicating with them,

201
00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:42,720
Speaker 1: they're fine. I just feel like, my parents are really wise.

202
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:45,160
Speaker 1: I tell them all the time, like, I really would

203
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 1: love to do a TV show on what you guys

204
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:50,760
Speaker 1: went through because I just have so many like lessons

205
00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:53,320
Speaker 1: and like life stories that they can like, you know,

206
00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:56,800
Speaker 1: compare it to or just like plain no good advice.

207
00:09:57,520 --> 00:09:59,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, so plain no good advice.

208
00:09:59,240 --> 00:09:59,840
Speaker 1: Yeah.

209
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:00,959
Speaker 2: I love that you.

210
00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 1: Started at what age?

211
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:04,440
Speaker 2: Like how old were you when you knew that this

212
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:05,280
Speaker 2: is what you wanted to do.

213
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:07,680
Speaker 1: I was writing poetry in middle school because I didn't

214
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:09,840
Speaker 1: know how to express myself, so that was the only

215
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:13,160
Speaker 1: way I could like get my thoughts out. But in

216
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:16,240
Speaker 1: high school it's when I really fell in love with it.

217
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:19,320
Speaker 1: I had Lime Wire and that's where I really like

218
00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:22,760
Speaker 1: discovered like Little Wayne and Nicki Minaj and their mixtape

219
00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:26,120
Speaker 1: era was just so crazy. So it really like made

220
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:29,400
Speaker 1: me realize that rap, which is poetry over a beat.

221
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:31,920
Speaker 2: What were you writing about? What were your poems about?

222
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:36,200
Speaker 2: Were they bad? Were the good?

223
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:37,160
Speaker 1: They were great?

224
00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,280
Speaker 2: I wasn't an Arab? What were you going through?

225
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:42,200
Speaker 1: I would just talk about my day to day life,

226
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:42,719
Speaker 1: you know, like.

227
00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:45,160
Speaker 2: My crushes boys.

228
00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:48,480
Speaker 1: It could be that it could be about my astorations

229
00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:51,920
Speaker 1: because I've always been a big thinker, Like I've always

230
00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:55,200
Speaker 1: been a little girl with big dreams and I'm happy

231
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:58,120
Speaker 1: that I've been able to fulfill them. But I've always

232
00:10:58,160 --> 00:10:59,679
Speaker 1: just been that person where I'm gonna do this. This

233
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:01,719
Speaker 1: is not like I might have a bake cell, I'm

234
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:04,160
Speaker 1: aa sell candy, I'm gonna go to usc Did you

235
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:07,080
Speaker 1: do those? I'm gonna have a music career in like

236
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:12,920
Speaker 1: entertainment you know. Yeah, yes, I did everything. And I

237
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:14,559
Speaker 1: think it's because I'm a little delusional.

238
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:17,760
Speaker 2: They say, to be really successful, you have to be

239
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:18,400
Speaker 2: a little No.

240
00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:20,640
Speaker 1: I really am, only because like sometimes when I talk

241
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:23,240
Speaker 1: about things, people look at me like I'm crazy. I've

242
00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:24,880
Speaker 1: always just been like I'm gonna do this and that,

243
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:27,360
Speaker 1: and I would just say it so casually. And one

244
00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:30,400
Speaker 1: day one of my friends were like, you know, I

245
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:33,559
Speaker 1: love you. It's because you're delusional. But everything you say

246
00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:39,920
Speaker 1: you're gonna do, you actually do it. So I think

247
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:43,280
Speaker 1: like God's blessed me with that, you know, a mind

248
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 1: to just feel like I can do anything I put

249
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:46,400
Speaker 1: my mind to.

250
00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:47,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, where did that come from?

251
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:50,920
Speaker 1: Well, my my parents instilled like, you know, working hard,

252
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:54,400
Speaker 1: doing your chores, getting good grades.

253
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:55,280
Speaker 2: You are your girl.

254
00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:57,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, what you do gir. I used to have a

255
00:11:57,200 --> 00:12:00,320
Speaker 1: box and standing on it and do the dishes like

256
00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:02,400
Speaker 1: I was like really young. They had me in the

257
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:03,200
Speaker 1: kitchen real early.

258
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:06,400
Speaker 2: It's good though.

259
00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:09,480
Speaker 1: But what's funny is my mom was talking to me

260
00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 1: about that the other day. She sent me a little meme.

261
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:15,600
Speaker 1: It was like, strict moms create successful daughters. I'm like, okay,

262
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:16,160
Speaker 1: I'll give you that.

263
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 2: You appreciate it back then, right, no, no, never let

264
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:25,800
Speaker 2: me go out side, please let me live, get off

265
00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:28,280
Speaker 2: this box. Yeah, but she was right, so she did

266
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:28,840
Speaker 2: something right.

267
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:32,199
Speaker 1: Yeah. I think there is a positive side district parents.

268
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:36,840
Speaker 1: I think it teaches responsibility, accountability, and it teaches you

269
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:39,480
Speaker 1: how to check the boxes off your list, get it

270
00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:40,560
Speaker 1: done and get it done.

271
00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:42,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, and also says the thing that there's like an

272
00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:45,440
Speaker 2: expect they have an expectation of you, right, so it

273
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 2: makes you probably then accept expect things for yourself.

274
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:51,680
Speaker 1: Exactly like we're not expecting BC's and d Z want

275
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,800
Speaker 1: as matter of fact, give me a plus. I'm like, dang, girl,

276
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:56,720
Speaker 1: was it like that house was?

277
00:12:57,400 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 2: Yeah?

278
00:12:57,760 --> 00:12:58,840
Speaker 1: When A was cool though?

279
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:02,440
Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, well I would hope. So yeah, but you delivered, man,

280
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:04,320
Speaker 2: you showed up. You did it was it was no

281
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:06,600
Speaker 2: fear in it. Did you have like fear coming into this?

282
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:12,760
Speaker 2: Now you just know, like I'm a little happen. What's

283
00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:15,120
Speaker 2: been the biggest surprise, like the biggest thing that you

284
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:17,400
Speaker 2: didn't expect dealing with, you know, the ups and downs

285
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:18,720
Speaker 2: of fame that you've had to go through.

286
00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:20,840
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm gonna tell you. I'm gonna tell you like this.

287
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,880
Speaker 1: I think that in the beginning of my career, I

288
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:29,000
Speaker 1: was so like just happy to be like anywhere being interviewed.

289
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:32,000
Speaker 1: So I was very like green and I would just

290
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:35,120
Speaker 1: be super honest with my answers and just ah, you know,

291
00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:39,800
Speaker 1: like my name is sleeping, I figure out. But there'd

292
00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:41,760
Speaker 1: be so many times where it's just like I thought

293
00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,520
Speaker 1: that I was having a cool intimate moment with like

294
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:49,480
Speaker 1: a platform or an interviewer, and they put out a

295
00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:54,280
Speaker 1: SoundBite that creates a bad narrative about myself and I'm like, you, mother,

296
00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:59,200
Speaker 1: I don't know, lunging about it, like I'm cussing them

297
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:00,719
Speaker 1: out of my head. And I was like, how are

298
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:03,280
Speaker 1: you so nice to me in this interview? But you

299
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:07,600
Speaker 1: take this little moment that overshadows the entire amazing conversation

300
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:10,200
Speaker 1: we have and you make it and you add it

301
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:12,080
Speaker 1: to a narrative that isn't even true about me.

302
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:14,920
Speaker 2: That is the trash part of this business. Yeah, it

303
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,200
Speaker 2: really is trash. I hate that for you. I hate

304
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:19,080
Speaker 2: that for me because it makes my job harder too,

305
00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:22,040
Speaker 2: because an artist is scared and skeptical to like have

306
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:24,040
Speaker 2: real conversations, which is what we try to have.

307
00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:27,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, but this, this isn't that. And I'm happy you

308
00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:31,760
Speaker 1: created a very safe space. Yeah, I appreciate like the

309
00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:33,440
Speaker 1: genuine intention behind it.

310
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:41,240
Speaker 2: Thank you. What about your inner like.

311
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:44,160
Speaker 1: What what you're gonna say?

312
00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:49,080
Speaker 2: No? No, because, like you know, sometimes outside noise creates

313
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:52,280
Speaker 2: our own narrative, Like you start almost sometimes if you're

314
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:57,080
Speaker 2: not careful, you almost start seeing what the outside narrative

315
00:14:57,880 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 2: you see yourself in the way of that, you know

316
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:01,520
Speaker 2: what I'm saying, Like people label you a certain way

317
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:03,960
Speaker 2: you start looking at does it interfere with how you

318
00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:06,400
Speaker 2: see yourself? As I guess what I was as well.

319
00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:10,600
Speaker 1: That's a really great question. And how like I've worked

320
00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:13,760
Speaker 1: with that or worked against it is Internally I'm like,

321
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 1: are you this person? Is it true? Do you believe this?

322
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:20,280
Speaker 1: And if I say no, I'm like, okay, then that's trash,

323
00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:22,240
Speaker 1: like we're not going to pay attention to it. But

324
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:24,560
Speaker 1: also how you combat it is you have to put

325
00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:29,320
Speaker 1: out things, whether it's music, content, interviews, to like control

326
00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:31,760
Speaker 1: your own narrative, which is why it's so important for

327
00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:34,520
Speaker 1: artists to speak up for themselves. H I love that

328
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:37,080
Speaker 1: I said this in another interview before, but I recently

329
00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:40,640
Speaker 1: just had a studio session with someone and we were

330
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:43,360
Speaker 1: talking and they were seeing how I was writing, and

331
00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:46,440
Speaker 1: they're like, do you purposely put out that other persona

332
00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:49,600
Speaker 1: of yourself? And I was like, what are you talking about?

333
00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:52,080
Speaker 1: And he was like, you're just way smarter than how

334
00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,000
Speaker 1: you're small to make you come off.

335
00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 2: Sir, that's my art.

336
00:15:56,920 --> 00:16:00,960
Speaker 1: But I can see where where that where that comes from,

337
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:03,400
Speaker 1: because I feel like I'm really proud of my hiss,

338
00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:08,200
Speaker 1: but I could be more of surface to myself by

339
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:13,520
Speaker 1: maybe becoming more vulnerable or really just diving into something

340
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:15,320
Speaker 1: that I don't even know what I'm diving into yet.

341
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:18,880
Speaker 1: I think because I'm by standard, very guarded, it takes

342
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:20,880
Speaker 1: a long time to get information out of me, so

343
00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:23,360
Speaker 1: that's probably where the disconnect may come from. But it

344
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:25,880
Speaker 1: was like I saw what he was saying, and he

345
00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:27,680
Speaker 1: was like, you need to show like more of this

346
00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:30,440
Speaker 1: side of you because there's more to you than your music.

347
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:32,200
Speaker 1: And I'm just like, well, how do I do that?

348
00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:35,440
Speaker 1: But you know, it comes from being in a safe room,

349
00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:39,280
Speaker 1: really being able to pour into like the session, and

350
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:42,000
Speaker 1: being honest, because if you're constantly with new teams, it's

351
00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:44,480
Speaker 1: just like you have to like re establish the connection

352
00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:45,080
Speaker 1: every time.

353
00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:49,760
Speaker 2: Yes, I could totally understand that. And plus, I don't know,

354
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:52,080
Speaker 2: I think for you too, you're probably still figuring that

355
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:54,680
Speaker 2: out right. You're still you're still young, You're still like

356
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:58,080
Speaker 2: your life is probably changing all the time. It's probably

357
00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:00,240
Speaker 2: like I don't know, it's probably just complicated. Did it

358
00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:01,800
Speaker 2: sometimes to share? Yeah?

359
00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:04,080
Speaker 1: I feel like, yeah, I feel like in my mind,

360
00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:07,720
Speaker 1: I'm constantly rebranding myself, like who.

361
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:09,400
Speaker 2: Would you last week?

362
00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:12,360
Speaker 1: Yeah? I feel like with new information, I just I'm

363
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:15,760
Speaker 1: always applying it, at least in my private life. Like, yeah,

364
00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:19,560
Speaker 1: so my mind is constantly my wiels are always turning.

365
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:23,480
Speaker 2: She said, I'm constantly rebranding myself. I get that. Where

366
00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:26,680
Speaker 2: do you see the next Like if you're rebranding now

367
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:28,679
Speaker 2: and you see that, like what is your vision for

368
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:31,159
Speaker 2: yourself down the line, Like what are the big goals.

369
00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:33,080
Speaker 2: I know you've done acting and stuff like that already too,

370
00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:36,080
Speaker 2: but I'm just curious about Like everybody has a thing

371
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:37,760
Speaker 2: they're chasing, what is that for you?

372
00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:44,000
Speaker 1: I mean, I do have like checklist goals, but I

373
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:49,240
Speaker 1: really want my goal is to always just be able

374
00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:52,720
Speaker 1: to have a childlike perspective of art. And what I

375
00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:55,320
Speaker 1: mean by that. I love art, I love music, I

376
00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:56,960
Speaker 1: love all these things I come with it. But you know,

377
00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,360
Speaker 1: when you're finally in the industry, I feel like there's

378
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:01,600
Speaker 1: just so many that take away from that joy and light.

379
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:02,919
Speaker 1: I never want to lose that.

380
00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:07,119
Speaker 2: Oh that's good. The holiday season is upon us. I

381
00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:10,919
Speaker 2: know it came so fast, right, So one thing I

382
00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:13,880
Speaker 2: am working on in my home is trying to make

383
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 2: my home feel festive. And also I have a lot

384
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:18,640
Speaker 2: of people over for the holiday, so sometimes that means

385
00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 2: any extra chairs and things. And I started thinking about

386
00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:24,320
Speaker 2: my grandmother, my grandmother. I come from a family where

387
00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:27,760
Speaker 2: my grandmother would host every year with second cousins, third cousins,

388
00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:30,480
Speaker 2: and she had a very small home, but she hosted

389
00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:32,399
Speaker 2: a big party and everything in the house would be

390
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:36,000
Speaker 2: dripping in holiday things. I mean everything for the toilet

391
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:40,080
Speaker 2: had like a Santa Claus on the toilet. The napkins

392
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:43,119
Speaker 2: in the house were Christmas napkins. I mean, if there

393
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:45,199
Speaker 2: was an inch of her house, it was dripped in

394
00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:48,959
Speaker 2: holiday And I don't want to do that, but I

395
00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:53,639
Speaker 2: do like the idea of recreating that much joy and

396
00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:56,640
Speaker 2: that much festiveness in my home. And there's so many

397
00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:58,320
Speaker 2: things at Wayfair that you can get for that, and

398
00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:00,800
Speaker 2: they don't have to be like the Santa Claus on

399
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:06,720
Speaker 2: the toilet, whether it's candles or tablecloths or just extra

400
00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:08,720
Speaker 2: seating because I do have extra people come in the house.

401
00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:11,200
Speaker 2: Folding chairs you can get great folding chairs at Wayfair.

402
00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:13,159
Speaker 2: And the good thing too is you can order that

403
00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:15,359
Speaker 2: stuff and it comes right to your house without having

404
00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:18,440
Speaker 2: a pay for delivery, which is super helpful or out

405
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:20,399
Speaker 2: lugging it having to run to the store and get

406
00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:21,880
Speaker 2: all that stuff and packing in the car and then

407
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:23,480
Speaker 2: pack it out of it. You know who wants to

408
00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:25,359
Speaker 2: deal with that. So for the holidays, really it is

409
00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:28,400
Speaker 2: a great It is my go to place for just

410
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:31,240
Speaker 2: like judging up the house to feel festive around the

411
00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:35,680
Speaker 2: holiday season and also setting up to host to invite

412
00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:37,879
Speaker 2: people over, and the more people that are normally in

413
00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:40,280
Speaker 2: my house and to accommodate for that, which usually means

414
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:44,160
Speaker 2: extra chairs. Maybe you wanted to get some new you know,

415
00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:47,679
Speaker 2: plates or tableware, and of course Wayfair has all that

434
00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:43,080
Speaker 1: Tell yeah, I do. Yeah, Like I love music. My

435
00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:46,600
Speaker 1: parents were big like music collectors, like when it came

436
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:49,000
Speaker 1: to like my dad he was big on like the oldies,

437
00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:52,240
Speaker 1: R and B, hip hop rap, and then my mom

438
00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:55,560
Speaker 1: she listened to like alternative also hip hop two but

439
00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:58,120
Speaker 1: she was like also into like indie rock and rock

440
00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:01,800
Speaker 1: and roll. So it's just like you could literally place me.

441
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:03,480
Speaker 1: And my friends tell me this all the time. You

442
00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:05,119
Speaker 1: could place me with any group and I could be

443
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:08,520
Speaker 1: the DJ. You could djally DJ. I mean, I could

444
00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:12,760
Speaker 1: do a playlist, my playlist game.

445
00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:14,960
Speaker 2: You should learn how to DJ. You'd probably be a

446
00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:17,040
Speaker 2: great DA. I would love how to DJ, but you

447
00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:20,240
Speaker 2: can learn bad fast. Yes, you should do it.

448
00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:21,240
Speaker 1: Sorry, somebody teach me.

449
00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:22,919
Speaker 2: I see that for you. I think you could do

450
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:25,119
Speaker 2: that because you have like you love music I do,

451
00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:26,960
Speaker 2: and if you could play the different crowd, you could

452
00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:27,320
Speaker 2: kill that.

453
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:30,200
Speaker 1: And you know, my new favorite genre is afro house,

454
00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 1: Like I need to go a visa and live and

455
00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:37,280
Speaker 1: live out my afro house fantasy. I do. I I

456
00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:39,040
Speaker 1: wasn't able to make it this year. I was gonna

457
00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:40,640
Speaker 1: go for my birthday, but I had to work close

458
00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:42,600
Speaker 1: to my birthday, so I ended up not going. But

459
00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:43,920
Speaker 1: I love me some afro house.

460
00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:47,040
Speaker 2: That's a vibe. See you know the bags you could

Speaker 1: I'm no longer available?

468
00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:12,120
Speaker 2: But look, what is the question? What do you no longer?

469
00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:15,720
Speaker 3: I'm no longer available for the for the bullshit?

470
00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:18,520
Speaker 1: Okay, I literally don't argue with nobody anymore.

471
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:19,879
Speaker 2: What do you mean? How do you do that?

472
00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:20,960
Speaker 1: Just be like you got it?

473
00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:23,120
Speaker 2: What do you mean? Like?

474
00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:27,119
Speaker 1: If you're not making any sense to me and you

475
00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:30,040
Speaker 1: have to and you have no basis to stand on,

476
00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:33,800
Speaker 1: I literally won't respond to you or I just will

477
00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:36,280
Speaker 1: just be like you got it. It's just so draining,

478
00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:38,439
Speaker 1: and I don't like talking to incompetent people.

479
00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:42,080
Speaker 2: It's so do you really do that? Because people say that,

480
00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:45,160
Speaker 2: do you really do it?

481
00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:47,000
Speaker 1: I'm a cancer. I can't do that.

482
00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:47,920
Speaker 2: I can.

483
00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:50,520
Speaker 1: And the reason why I say that, I mean even

484
00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:53,280
Speaker 1: if people ain't in so astrology, I feel like cancers

485
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:56,200
Speaker 1: are mislabeled, as you know, overly emotional. But I think

486
00:22:56,280 --> 00:23:00,880
Speaker 1: that we have so much emotional intelligence, like my emotions

487
00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 1: can go like this to like this in a split second.

488
00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:06,440
Speaker 1: Like I manage my emotions really well. And if you

489
00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:09,200
Speaker 1: want that bullshit, I literally would just tune you out

490
00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:15,320
Speaker 1: and chase the station. No, because like, why give yourself,

491
00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:19,360
Speaker 1: why devote yourself to all this this low frequency, low

492
00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:23,040
Speaker 1: vibrational conversation. Why give them that time?

493
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:25,840
Speaker 2: M hm? What did you say? You say to them?

494
00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:26,719
Speaker 1: They say, you got it?

495
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:27,439
Speaker 2: Oh, you got it.

496
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:28,960
Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, you got it.

497
00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:30,480
Speaker 2: You don't have to be right.

498
00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:33,480
Speaker 1: I'm just like, because if I'm really trying to explain

499
00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:37,080
Speaker 1: like my stance to and you keep cutting me off,

500
00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:41,280
Speaker 1: talking over me, your responses don't make sense. I'm just like,

501
00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:43,080
Speaker 1: you're incompetent.

502
00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:45,960
Speaker 2: We had Kelly Clarkson on the Potter. She said something similar. Oh,

503
00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:49,719
Speaker 2: she said, her therapist told her, you do not have

504
00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:53,520
Speaker 2: to attend every argument. You can say I'm unavailable for that.

505
00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:56,320
Speaker 2: You don't have to attend. You don't have to I'm

506
00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:58,879
Speaker 2: unavailable to attend this. And I think this conversation, I

507
00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:02,040
Speaker 2: thought that was so good, just like you could just decide, yeah, no,

508
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:03,960
Speaker 2: I'm not having this conversation. It's kind of similar to

509
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:04,440
Speaker 2: what you just.

510
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:07,440
Speaker 1: And I agree with that because we have to realize

511
00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 1: that we have an option to either continue with the conversation.

512
00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:12,400
Speaker 1: We're not continuing with the conversation.

513
00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:16,919
Speaker 2: That's good people say that, but I don't know to

514
00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:18,359
Speaker 2: really do it. I think I'm going to steal that

515
00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:19,280
Speaker 2: for something.

516
00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:21,800
Speaker 1: I think when you give so many people the opportunity

517
00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:25,240
Speaker 1: and it's just only draining, it's just kind of like, Okay,

518
00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:26,680
Speaker 1: do I want to be drained or do I want

519
00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:27,320
Speaker 1: to be fulfilled?

520
00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:29,840
Speaker 2: Are you that strong in like like if it's like

521
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:33,000
Speaker 2: if somebody you're dating relationships, are you that strong in

522
00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:33,680
Speaker 2: that as well?

523
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:37,000
Speaker 1: Or do you get Sometimes I want to say, I

524
00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:39,520
Speaker 1: was going to say you hear at the moment, you'd

525
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:44,720
Speaker 1: be like, ho, not as good? You know, you know

526
00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:47,359
Speaker 1: it's a muscle that you got to work almost certain people.

527
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:50,919
Speaker 2: I like that. What is another muscle that you've had

528
00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:52,960
Speaker 2: to work on? What are the muscles that you have you've.

529
00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:55,960
Speaker 1: Had to I'm being patient with anything in life because

530
00:24:55,960 --> 00:25:00,320
Speaker 1: I'm very impatient. But yeah, just go on with the

531
00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:03,120
Speaker 1: flow when it's meant to go with the flow. Because

532
00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:07,639
Speaker 1: sometimes when you try to control the outcome of something,

533
00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:11,000
Speaker 1: you're rushing it and you can't rush a blessing. So

534
00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:15,000
Speaker 1: I just have tried to be disciplined with my urge

535
00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:18,119
Speaker 1: to like be somewhere or to attain something or to

536
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:21,000
Speaker 1: do something that I want to do, or there's something

537
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:21,719
Speaker 1: in that nature.

538
00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:22,600
Speaker 2: Yeah.

539
00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:28,119
Speaker 1: Patience, Yeah, it's very It's one of my biggest really struggles. Yeah.

540
00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:32,119
Speaker 2: I don't have no advice on patience. My damn self.

541
00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:33,120
Speaker 2: All right, take one more.

542
00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:37,520
Speaker 1: I'll do this. This is cool. This is a good question.

543
00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:38,520
Speaker 2: They're good. Yeah.

544
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:43,840
Speaker 1: If you could instantly master any skill, what would it be.

545
00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:48,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's good for you. Wow, you're not afraid to

546
00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:48,800
Speaker 2: try new things?

547
00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:53,040
Speaker 1: No, yeah, actually it'd be to learn salsa.

548
00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:55,280
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I love that for you.

549
00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:57,879
Speaker 1: Yeah. I've taken some salsa classes, and every time I

550
00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:02,119
Speaker 1: get like three classes in, I always like stop, stop,

551
00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:04,280
Speaker 1: what would quit? I would say stop because I would

552
00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:07,080
Speaker 1: love to do it again. But yeah, sausage is so sexy.

553
00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:09,959
Speaker 2: That's so funny. That was on my bucket list. Really,

554
00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:11,920
Speaker 2: I promise you it's on my bucket list. And I

555
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:14,320
Speaker 2: for some reason, I took a couple of lessons once

556
00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:18,040
Speaker 2: and I was it was starting to like naturally click,

557
00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:20,480
Speaker 2: and then I fell off again too.

558
00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:22,600
Speaker 1: So I have this in my song. I need some

559
00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:26,120
Speaker 1: insfo off my project. It's a very like Island song,

560
00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:29,040
Speaker 1: like my dream is a salsa in that music video.

561
00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:31,399
Speaker 2: So do it? Yeah? Are you gonna do it?

562
00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:32,359
Speaker 1: Yeah?

563
00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:37,080
Speaker 2: Yes, you just committed right, Yes, now you have to

564
00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:37,560
Speaker 2: commit it.

565
00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:39,400
Speaker 1: Oh you'll kill that, thank you.

566
00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:41,119
Speaker 2: I think that would be fire.

567
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:43,439
Speaker 1: I think sausage not only is it sexy?

568
00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:46,119
Speaker 2: Why that of all things? I'm so surprised. I mean me,

569
00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:48,560
Speaker 2: you know Puerto Rican. It's like I feel like I

570
00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:50,040
Speaker 2: should already know how to do that.

571
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:53,040
Speaker 1: Well, I love the dance already, but sausage is just

572
00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:56,200
Speaker 1: one of those those classes that I've joined, and every

573
00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:58,760
Speaker 1: time I'm done with it, I feel so liberated. It

574
00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:01,320
Speaker 1: just feels like I've awakened the woman in me.

575
00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:05,439
Speaker 2: Where was she before?

576
00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:07,400
Speaker 1: Right, you're supposed to be here all the time.

577
00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:11,159
Speaker 2: That's so funny. That's really good. All right, that's a

578
00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:13,879
Speaker 2: good bucket list. That's one of our IROL questions is

579
00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:15,919
Speaker 2: what is on your bucketst what about your legacy? What

580
00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:17,879
Speaker 2: do you think? How often do you think about your legacy?

581
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:20,240
Speaker 1: And I do want to stresses me out? You do?

582
00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:20,639
Speaker 2: Why?

583
00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:26,480
Speaker 1: Damn? It's just I think because I want to accomplish

584
00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:29,600
Speaker 1: so much so fast. This goes back to the patients thing.

585
00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:33,439
Speaker 1: I have to be like, it's okay, you know, everything

586
00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:36,640
Speaker 1: is in divine timing and just trust the process. But

587
00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:39,320
Speaker 1: when it comes to my legacy, there's a lot of

588
00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:40,960
Speaker 1: things that I do want to do. But as long

589
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:43,920
Speaker 1: as I'm inspirational, like when the little girls look up

590
00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:45,520
Speaker 1: to like what I did, I want them to be

591
00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:49,840
Speaker 1: like she persevered, she was resilient, she rose to the occasion,

592
00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:51,679
Speaker 1: she did what she said she was going to do.

593
00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:54,280
Speaker 1: I think that's what I'd like to leave behind because

594
00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:57,080
Speaker 1: like inspiration is like one of the most powerful emotions

595
00:27:57,080 --> 00:27:57,960
Speaker 1: that somebody can have.

596
00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:01,000
Speaker 2: Who does it for you? Like, who do you look

597
00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:01,919
Speaker 2: to for those moments?

598
00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:05,160
Speaker 1: Who do I look to for those moments? Okay, it's

599
00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:10,199
Speaker 1: gonna sound like a very a very I wouldn't say

600
00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:15,119
Speaker 1: it's basic because this is not basic at all. Honestly,

601
00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:16,800
Speaker 1: the lessons in my Bible app.

602
00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:21,240
Speaker 2: I love that it Just.

603
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:25,439
Speaker 1: Know exactly I say that, I just saying, like, you know,

604
00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:27,679
Speaker 1: like there's typical answers, but it's a real thing that

605
00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:29,600
Speaker 1: I do. When I get super stressed out, I go

606
00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:32,480
Speaker 1: on my Bible app and they have like lessons attached

607
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:34,679
Speaker 1: to different emotions that you're feeling, and I click the

608
00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:37,040
Speaker 1: emotion and then I read like the scriptures and like

609
00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:39,920
Speaker 1: the devotional lesson and they're good and they're great.

610
00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:44,080
Speaker 2: What app is this? It's just is it called the Bible? App?

611
00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:45,160
Speaker 2: Why don't I have that?

612
00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:47,320
Speaker 1: It's brown with like gold letters on it.

613
00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:49,560
Speaker 2: What was one thing? Give me the thing that you

614
00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:50,880
Speaker 2: that it recently gave you?

615
00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:55,920
Speaker 1: To not worry? Because like in the scripture said, God

616
00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:58,960
Speaker 1: gives us the gift of peace, and that there's and

617
00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:00,920
Speaker 1: then there's scriptures that you can read to remind you

618
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:03,320
Speaker 1: on how to you know, get rid of your worries

619
00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:05,920
Speaker 1: and to just live in peace because that's the gift

620
00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:09,880
Speaker 1: that's given to us. Because there's another quote where it's

621
00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:13,840
Speaker 1: like thinking about the past gives you depression, and then

622
00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:17,600
Speaker 1: thinking about the future gives you anxiety. Like I'm that person,

623
00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:19,520
Speaker 1: so I'd be like, God, help me please.

624
00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:24,840
Speaker 2: That's one of our questions too. What do you pray foremost?

625
00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:25,840
Speaker 2: Is one of the questions?

626
00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:26,200
Speaker 1: Peace?

627
00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:27,400
Speaker 2: Please?

628
00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:30,680
Speaker 1: No? Because my mind, in my mind, there's just so

629
00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:32,440
Speaker 1: much going in it all the time.

630
00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:34,480
Speaker 2: What is all that ticking going on?

631
00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:37,000
Speaker 1: Well, like I said earlier, like I'm delusional. So it's

632
00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:39,120
Speaker 1: just like, Okay, I accomplished this, now I can go

633
00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:41,760
Speaker 1: accomplish this. Like I just have a bucket list of

634
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:42,200
Speaker 1: things that.

635
00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:44,880
Speaker 2: Are just very ambitious.

636
00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:47,600
Speaker 1: That a very ambitious, but I know that if I

637
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:50,000
Speaker 1: apply myself, I can get there because I've done it

638
00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:52,640
Speaker 1: before when I have the proof of concept for myself.

639
00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:55,200
Speaker 2: There's one in the in there that I love. It's

640
00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:57,720
Speaker 2: a question that says, if God were to text you

641
00:29:57,800 --> 00:29:59,160
Speaker 2: right now, what would it say?

642
00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:00,920
Speaker 1: It would say, Remember what I told you?

643
00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:03,160
Speaker 2: What did he tell you?

644
00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:06,080
Speaker 1: He told me a lot of things, you know. So

645
00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:09,600
Speaker 1: I grew up in the church. My grandparents are pastors,

646
00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:12,440
Speaker 1: so every summer they'd have like a prophet come. So

647
00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:16,240
Speaker 1: when I was thirteen, I wanted the prophets actually prophesied

648
00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:18,680
Speaker 1: that I would have a music career. Wow, And I didn't.

649
00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:21,120
Speaker 1: That's when I was writing poetry and I was like,

650
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:24,760
Speaker 1: I want to be a hair stylist. And I was like,

651
00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:27,360
Speaker 1: what is she talking about? But literally the things that

652
00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:30,640
Speaker 1: she prophesies to me at that age has came true

653
00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:31,600
Speaker 1: has came to past.

654
00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:34,120
Speaker 2: Wow. So it was that you'd be an artist and

655
00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:38,920
Speaker 2: some other things private things I wonder what that prophet

656
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:43,479
Speaker 2: told you. I want to see it was.

657
00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:46,200
Speaker 1: It was very inspirational, but at the time none of

658
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:50,440
Speaker 1: us understood, like what is she talking about? But it

659
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:52,120
Speaker 1: came to past and I'm doing what she said I

660
00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:52,720
Speaker 1: would be doing.

661
00:30:53,040 --> 00:31:02,480
Speaker 2: Wow, I see it's really hard to get Yeah, and

662
00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:06,160
Speaker 2: a full scholarship. So you was like a for real

663
00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:09,520
Speaker 2: smarty pants like you was. The grades were good, what

664
00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:11,960
Speaker 2: else were you prepping for that? To get into a

665
00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:13,640
Speaker 2: school like that, it's not just good grades.

666
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:15,480
Speaker 1: You have to be a railround student. But I was

667
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:18,640
Speaker 1: a transfer so I had transferred from San Diego State,

668
00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:22,800
Speaker 1: and essentially what made me a very like well rounded

669
00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:27,720
Speaker 1: student was the accolades that I had accomplished there. Like

670
00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:33,120
Speaker 1: I was the first tell you this is the funniest thing.

671
00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:35,200
Speaker 1: I'm like, DM, I tell you girl, like you really

672
00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:37,600
Speaker 1: did be going for the stars. I remember I was

673
00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:39,800
Speaker 1: so bored. I was like, you know what, I want

674
00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:40,560
Speaker 1: to be the mascot.

675
00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:42,200
Speaker 2: You were the mascot.

676
00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:44,760
Speaker 1: So I tried out and I was the first woman

677
00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:46,680
Speaker 1: that ever tried out to be the mascot. I made

678
00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:49,479
Speaker 1: the front of the newspaper because I had made it

679
00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:51,880
Speaker 1: down to like the final two. But they ended up

680
00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:55,000
Speaker 1: going with a guy. Oh yeah, it's sick about that

681
00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:58,160
Speaker 1: now crazy, but it was the first time a woman

682
00:31:58,200 --> 00:31:59,320
Speaker 1: tried out to be the mascot.

683
00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:00,640
Speaker 2: And why did you want to do that?

684
00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:04,400
Speaker 1: Because I was bored girl to do something with my time.

00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:37,040

00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:39,440
Speaker 2: Is there video of this somewhere? Potter? Is there a

745
00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:40,040
Speaker 2: video of this?

746
00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:44,279
Speaker 1: I actually went back last year for homecoming and I

747
00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:45,320
Speaker 1: danced with the girls.

748
00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:47,799
Speaker 2: They must love to see you there. What's that like?

749
00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:51,680
Speaker 1: It was a full circle experience because we all danced

750
00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:54,839
Speaker 1: to my type. So it's just like here I am

751
00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:58,480
Speaker 1: performing a song and it reminded me of like all

752
00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:00,880
Speaker 1: the times I was in my dorms writing raps, and

753
00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:02,600
Speaker 1: it's just like wow, like I did what I said

754
00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:03,200
Speaker 1: I was gonna do.

755
00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:05,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's such a different person too, if you think

756
00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:08,880
Speaker 2: about even when you wrote my type, Yeah, you're probably

757
00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:11,440
Speaker 2: in a whole different space, right, like a whole different

758
00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:12,719
Speaker 2: or you still that girl.

759
00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:14,959
Speaker 1: I feel like all of my songs are a piece

760
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:18,319
Speaker 1: of my personality. Yeah, you never know what you're gonna

761
00:35:18,320 --> 00:35:18,719
Speaker 1: get with me.

762
00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:21,120
Speaker 2: I thought about you in that song earlier because I

763
00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:24,120
Speaker 2: saw Summer Walker today posted her with some guy at

764
00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:25,920
Speaker 2: the some older white guy or the thing, and she

765
00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:29,000
Speaker 2: said she was trying to change her type. I have

766
00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:29,560
Speaker 2: no type.

767
00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:33,520
Speaker 1: You know, sometimes you have to go outside of your

768
00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:34,719
Speaker 1: type and see what life's like.

769
00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:36,240
Speaker 2: I wonder if your type has changed.

770
00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:42,440
Speaker 1: Definitely definitely, Hell, so what is the type now? A

771
00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:49,160
Speaker 1: type that's supportive. Actually, I've been in supportive relationships before,

772
00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:51,640
Speaker 1: so let me not say that to discredit, but my

773
00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:55,879
Speaker 1: type has definitely changed, so definitely, like one it's like, Okay,

774
00:35:55,880 --> 00:36:00,880
Speaker 1: we're not doing that no more. You know, what's interesting

775
00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:04,200
Speaker 1: about my type is that when people typically ask me,

776
00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:07,520
Speaker 1: like what is your type? My type is energy, Like

777
00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:11,840
Speaker 1: do we mesh? Are we compatible? Like? Can I spend

778
00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:13,840
Speaker 1: time with you? And can we have quiet moments?

779
00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:14,799
Speaker 2: You know?

780
00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:17,279
Speaker 1: Does it always have to be extra or can we

781
00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:20,360
Speaker 1: just be chilled too? Like I'm really attracted to like energy?

782
00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:25,200
Speaker 2: That could be tricky sometimes. Really why yeah, because sometimes

783
00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:30,200
Speaker 2: guys could give you energy, you know what I'm saying.

784
00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:39,640
Speaker 2: It's not necessarily healthy energy, but it just be good energy.

785
00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:45,000
Speaker 2: Sometimes it's fun energy. It's not always necessarily the best,

786
00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:46,600
Speaker 2: the most.

787
00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:49,399
Speaker 1: No. I think that's a good point because sometimes when

788
00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:52,400
Speaker 1: you meet people and it's in a lit situation like that,

789
00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:55,080
Speaker 1: vibe is amazing, but it's just like we're not going

790
00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:57,400
Speaker 1: to be parting twenty four to seven, you know. So

791
00:36:57,520 --> 00:37:00,160
Speaker 1: sometimes you know, in those moments because such it's a

792
00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:03,600
Speaker 1: great time, yah, you mistake it for you know, their

793
00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:08,319
Speaker 1: whole personality and you like, hold on, there's something else there.

794
00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:09,680
Speaker 2: What's happening at home?

795
00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:12,280
Speaker 1: Do you have a personality disorder?

796
00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:15,840
Speaker 2: We don't want that for you.

797
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:17,560
Speaker 1: We don't not for anybody.

798
00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:19,200
Speaker 2: We don't want that for you. I am curious.

799
00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:20,080
Speaker 1: I know you tried to act.

800
00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:22,880
Speaker 2: I mean you just did you didn't try? You did it? Yeah,

801
00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:24,000
Speaker 2: you did some acting.

802
00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:26,040
Speaker 1: When it comes to acting, I would love to be

803
00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:28,200
Speaker 1: a part of like a franchise that has something to

804
00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:31,600
Speaker 1: do with action only because of my athleticism. I would

805
00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:34,920
Speaker 1: enjoy like doing my own stunts, but like something like

806
00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:38,239
Speaker 1: you know, with a with a heroin or maybe even

807
00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:42,000
Speaker 1: an anti heroin. But I really love the DC characters.

808
00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:44,680
Speaker 1: I typically dress up for them, like them for Halloween.

809
00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:49,560
Speaker 1: I didn't mistake I did Harley Quinn. Well you probably did,

810
00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:53,160
Speaker 1: Joker know that Joker. That was my like my first

811
00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:57,160
Speaker 1: masculine album, I mean album, my first masculine costume woman

812
00:37:57,280 --> 00:38:00,520
Speaker 1: music Mode. Yeah, because normally I'm super sexy. Last year

813
00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:02,680
Speaker 1: I was like, you know what, what's happened? So you

814
00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:04,200
Speaker 1: know another the other side.

815
00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:07,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, do you feel like people expect you to always

816
00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:07,800
Speaker 2: be sexy?

817
00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:08,320
Speaker 1: No?

818
00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:11,480
Speaker 2: Really, no no pressure. No.

819
00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:14,520
Speaker 1: I think I'm just comfortable with my own energy. Sometimes

820
00:38:14,520 --> 00:38:17,040
Speaker 1: I might be a tomboy. Sometimes I might be dressed down.

821
00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:19,480
Speaker 1: Sometimes I don't feel like showing on my skin. Sometimes

822
00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:20,640
Speaker 1: I want to show on my skins.

823
00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:23,279
Speaker 2: It's funny because this pribe you is about pressure, but

824
00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:25,480
Speaker 2: you seem to manage it pretty well. You don't let

825
00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:26,200
Speaker 2: a lot of stuff.

826
00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:29,200
Speaker 1: But I think pressure has just been a reoccurring thing

827
00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:34,000
Speaker 1: throughout my whole life. I feel like every major I

828
00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:37,080
Speaker 1: don't even know how you divide up your life chapters chapters.

829
00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:40,200
Speaker 1: It's a reoccurring theme and it shows up in different ways.

830
00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:44,160
Speaker 1: So as a little girl, I've always just knew how

831
00:38:44,160 --> 00:38:46,239
Speaker 1: to manage pressure really well, and I think it rolled

832
00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:49,600
Speaker 1: over until like my teenage years, it rolled over into

833
00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:52,480
Speaker 1: my adulthood really well. I feel like I've always been

834
00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:53,120
Speaker 1: under pressure.

835
00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:55,080
Speaker 2: But what is that pressure? Like your kid? What was

836
00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:56,200
Speaker 2: the pressure as.

837
00:38:56,080 --> 00:39:00,480
Speaker 1: A kid getting good grades, taking care of myself? And

838
00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:03,680
Speaker 1: then also just the pressure of being biracial. That is

839
00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:07,440
Speaker 1: a real struggle and it's really hard when neither community

840
00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:09,319
Speaker 1: wants to claim you.

841
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:10,960
Speaker 2: Is that what you experienced?

842
00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:12,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what I felt at a really young age.

843
00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:15,759
Speaker 1: I felt like I didn't belong in either group, and

844
00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:20,080
Speaker 1: it really just made me feel like I didn't belong

845
00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:24,000
Speaker 1: in social environments because at home I felt love. I

846
00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:26,520
Speaker 1: felt like, oh, like race isn't even a thing. You

847
00:39:26,560 --> 00:39:30,080
Speaker 1: go to school it's just like, ah, what are you?

848
00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:31,960
Speaker 1: You know, it's like the names that come with it.

849
00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:35,080
Speaker 1: So I think that was difficult for me, the social

850
00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:38,520
Speaker 1: pressures of just being a kid at school, you know,

851
00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:43,560
Speaker 1: kids are mean, and also just the pressure of not

852
00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:47,000
Speaker 1: being in the same household as both of my parents,

853
00:39:47,320 --> 00:39:50,279
Speaker 1: And I think that it wasn't until I saw a

854
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:52,879
Speaker 1: household with both parents in them that I realized that

855
00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:56,720
Speaker 1: my situation was normal. So I'm just like, why are

856
00:39:56,760 --> 00:39:58,080
Speaker 1: my parents at the same home?

857
00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:00,799
Speaker 2: Did they split early? You were younger, yeah, old enough

858
00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:01,800
Speaker 2: to see them together?

859
00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:02,200
Speaker 1: No?

860
00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:03,760
Speaker 2: Oh, so you never even.

861
00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:05,640
Speaker 1: Saw that now, so I thought it was I didn't.

862
00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:07,960
Speaker 1: It was just a normal for me. You know, when

863
00:40:08,040 --> 00:40:10,040
Speaker 1: a kid is growing up, whatever they see is just

864
00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:13,080
Speaker 1: a standard. But it wasn't until like I saw my

865
00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:16,600
Speaker 1: friends have their parents and I'm just like, what's going

866
00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:17,320
Speaker 1: go at my house?

867
00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:20,359
Speaker 2: Why are we different? Yeah, but you're close with your

868
00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:23,880
Speaker 2: dad right also, but still just not having a vision

869
00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:27,120
Speaker 2: of what a relationship is supposed to look like sometimes

870
00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:29,680
Speaker 2: I could make it more challenging as you get.

871
00:40:29,719 --> 00:40:32,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, So I think just as as a child, it

872
00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:34,640
Speaker 1: was the pressure of just all these ideas in my

873
00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:38,399
Speaker 1: head trying to make sense of my world. But also

874
00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:40,799
Speaker 1: I think what was tough for me was just like

875
00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:44,640
Speaker 1: I was always switching schools. It's bouncing in between households,

876
00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:47,480
Speaker 1: going to other households. You know, I've lived with my cousins,

877
00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:49,279
Speaker 1: I live with my grandma, I've lived with all these

878
00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:49,800
Speaker 1: other people.

879
00:40:49,920 --> 00:40:51,560
Speaker 2: So why are we bouncing around someone?

880
00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:54,200
Speaker 1: You know how the young parents that are separated, me

881
00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:56,080
Speaker 1: being indecisive. I want to go live with you. I

882
00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:58,239
Speaker 1: want to go live with you. You know. I was

883
00:40:58,320 --> 00:41:01,560
Speaker 1: never able to create a founder of like a real

884
00:41:01,640 --> 00:41:05,040
Speaker 1: sense of community, not until later on in life. Middle

885
00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:09,600
Speaker 1: school was tough, really, it was really tough. So what

886
00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:11,879
Speaker 1: had happened was is my mom had took me out

887
00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:14,320
Speaker 1: of the school that I was at and had brought

888
00:41:14,360 --> 00:41:17,640
Speaker 1: me to a school that was in a better neighborhood.

889
00:41:18,760 --> 00:41:21,640
Speaker 1: It was such a culture shock being like one of

890
00:41:21,640 --> 00:41:25,640
Speaker 1: the only black girls or colored girls, mixed girls at

891
00:41:25,719 --> 00:41:28,239
Speaker 1: that school because the school was like predominantly white. It

892
00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:31,160
Speaker 1: was almost like an identity crisis for me because it's

893
00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:33,640
Speaker 1: just what, Yeah, who am I? Why don't like these

894
00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:36,600
Speaker 1: people look different than me? They act different, they talk different.

895
00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:40,440
Speaker 1: It really just made me more introverted.

896
00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:42,920
Speaker 2: When does that shift for you, like when did you

897
00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:44,359
Speaker 2: feel confident in.

898
00:41:44,280 --> 00:41:48,680
Speaker 1: Your Honestly, I felt like I found my identity and

899
00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:52,720
Speaker 1: I felt I felt like I finally belonged in the community.

900
00:41:52,760 --> 00:41:56,160
Speaker 1: When it came to sports, my mom like forced me

901
00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:58,799
Speaker 1: to go to volleyball tryouts. I'm like, I don't want

902
00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:01,279
Speaker 1: to go. She was like, just you know, she's a

903
00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:05,239
Speaker 1: scary woman. It's like, Okay, I'm gonna try out. But

904
00:42:05,280 --> 00:42:10,680
Speaker 1: I'm really happy to have had that experience, especially with

905
00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:13,600
Speaker 1: you know, team bonding, team building, because when it comes

906
00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:15,640
Speaker 1: to sports, it's like it just teaches you things that

907
00:42:15,680 --> 00:42:18,719
Speaker 1: you wouldn't learn anywhere else. So I felt like that's

908
00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:22,279
Speaker 1: where I found like a place where I mattered and

909
00:42:22,320 --> 00:42:25,360
Speaker 1: where I was respected and where I felt like I

910
00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:30,080
Speaker 1: was seen. Race didn't play a part at least for me.

911
00:42:30,719 --> 00:42:32,920
Speaker 1: It just was a group of girls who came together

912
00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:36,560
Speaker 1: and who developed this special synergy and I felt like

913
00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:40,080
Speaker 1: I had a role to play. And I feel like

914
00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:41,799
Speaker 1: that was the first time where I fit into a

915
00:42:41,800 --> 00:42:45,880
Speaker 1: community where it wasn't divided. Yeah, yeah, that's beautiful. I

916
00:42:45,880 --> 00:42:47,839
Speaker 1: didn't even think about that that you had probably been

917
00:42:47,840 --> 00:42:49,680
Speaker 1: through some of that. Do you feel like people connect

918
00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:52,879
Speaker 1: with you now because of that. I wonder if there's

919
00:42:52,920 --> 00:42:54,120
Speaker 1: some fans that see that in you.

920
00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:56,239
Speaker 2: I don't know. It's probably young Filipino girls, as young

921
00:42:56,239 --> 00:42:58,560
Speaker 2: Black girls. There's probably young mixed girls that all kind

922
00:42:58,560 --> 00:42:59,440
Speaker 2: of see themselves.

923
00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:02,960
Speaker 1: I think what I've what I've taken from that challenge

924
00:43:03,080 --> 00:43:05,719
Speaker 1: is just to be proud, Like I'm proud to be

925
00:43:06,280 --> 00:43:09,600
Speaker 1: a Filipina, I'm proud to be to have some Chinese

926
00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:12,280
Speaker 1: and me, I'm proud to be an African American woman.

927
00:43:14,040 --> 00:43:16,439
Speaker 1: I'm as proud to be me. And I think that's

928
00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:19,440
Speaker 1: what I want girls to take away, like just be proud,

929
00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:20,440
Speaker 1: be proud.

930
00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:20,560
Speaker 2: To be you.

931
00:43:20,680 --> 00:43:23,880
Speaker 1: I think that's the most important and I think through

932
00:43:24,320 --> 00:43:29,120
Speaker 1: the experiences of my early stages in life, I think

933
00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:31,319
Speaker 1: that's what just made me comfortable in my own skin

934
00:43:31,719 --> 00:43:33,799
Speaker 1: because it's just like, you don't like me, but I

935
00:43:33,920 --> 00:43:35,440
Speaker 1: like me, and that's what matters.

936
00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:41,320
Speaker 2: That's a clip right there. I ever heard a clip

937

944
00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:58,920
Speaker 1: and when you say that, it almost upsets them that

945

Speaker 1: you that they don't you don't match their energy. Like

946

Speaker 2: haven't seen a lot of this stuff yet, so I

956
00:44:24,080 --> 00:44:25,840

Speaker 2: you what this? Well?

958
00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:32,719
