It wasn't a big status symbol thing 169 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:54,240 Speaker 5: to be on Disney Channel at the time, you know. 170 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 5: It was just they were just getting it going and 171 00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:59,680 Speaker 5: they were doing great, great work, but just getting it 172 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:01,839 Speaker 5: going in and be honest with you, at that time, 173 00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 5: all of my shows were network shows CBS and ABC 174 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:13,480 Speaker 5: and upn Box, you know, so there wasn't a big 175 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 5: It doesn't seem like the thing to do would be 176 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 5: to go and do something on the Disney Channel. But 177 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 5: I did, you know? And when against agents and folks 178 00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 5: saying why would you do that? 179 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:26,760 Speaker 2: You time wasted? 180 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 7: You know? 181 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,960 Speaker 5: Okay, right?

That was a big deal for me 185 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 5: and a very helpful thing in my career. And how 186 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:52,679 Speaker 5: would I know? How could I possibly know that years 187 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:55,720 Speaker 5: years after the show was off the air, were I 188 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:59,319 Speaker 5: hadn't been working on it in several years? And And 189 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:06,960 Speaker 5: would I know that Disney would buy ABC Network and 190 00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:10,840 Speaker 5: then that they would have to they needed to have 191 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:15,199 Speaker 5: a Saturday morning cartoons and they wanted an African American 192 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 5: show on Saturday Morning cartoons.

Uh and 235 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:37,960 Speaker 5: and and and I started, I started thinking, how could 236 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:40,040 Speaker 5: I help some of these folks get in? And I 237 00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 5: started seeing the changes also again checking the trends. I 238 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 5: started seeing the trend that people were using more songs 239 00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:54,080 Speaker 5: in in scores, in the scoring of television shows and movies. 240 00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 5: And I didn't think that that was going back the 241 00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 5: other way. I didn't think that once that genie was 242 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:01,800 Speaker 5: out of bottle, it was and mystically going to stop. 243 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 5: So and I also knew that this was with a library, 244 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:10,720 Speaker 5: you could get a person that has never done anything 245 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:14,280 Speaker 5: in television or film in You'd get them an opportunity 246 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:18,480 Speaker 5: to get in. And within the first five years, not 247 00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 5: only had I gotten just thousands and thousands of songs, 248 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 5: and we produced all of these songs through True Music 249 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:30,120 Speaker 5: with me overseeing it, and a lot of just really 250 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:33,480 Speaker 5: brilliant artists. I mean, some of these people way way 251 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:36,000 Speaker 5: more brilliant and talented than I, and they just haven't 252 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:41,600 Speaker 5: had that opportunity to get in to this world. And 253 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:45,120 Speaker 5: I would say over ninety percent of the people that 254 00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:48,680 Speaker 5: are in True Music had never many of them would 255 00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:50,920 Speaker 5: golden platinum records on the wall, had never ever had 256 00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 5: anything on television or in a movie, you know.

And in this 425 00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:15,920 Speaker 10: journey it felt like to me a job journey where 426 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:17,800 Speaker 10: you're stripped of everything, but you stay on the journey. 427 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:19,800 Speaker 10: But my daughter told me it was more of a 428 00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:23,760 Speaker 10: Noah journey because I was building an arc and when 429 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:25,600 Speaker 10: no buildings are no one even knew of Rain, I 430 00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:28,359 Speaker 10: was building this arc and that people eventually won't come 431 00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:30,080 Speaker 10: on board. And right now, I built this arc with 432 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 10: these characters, and yes, people did call me crazy because 433 00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:35,119 Speaker 10: I gave up everything to continue to build this arc. 434 00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:38,720 Speaker 10: So the Feeling Friends are these wonderful characters that give 435 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:41,960 Speaker 10: children the vocabulary to talk about their feelings. When my 436 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:45,560 Speaker 10: daughter was six, she was diagnosed with depression and there 437 00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:48,760 Speaker 10: were six years old. Wow, there were no tools on 438 00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:50,920 Speaker 10: the market to help her, and the psychologist said, you 439 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:53,520 Speaker 10: got to get her talk about her feelings, and so 440 00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:55,000 Speaker 10: I went out there to try to buy something that 441 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:57,719 Speaker 10: was nothing there. And so what I realized I had 442 00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:00,159 Speaker 10: taught her all the words that a preschool shouldn't in 443 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:02,919 Speaker 10: a kindergarten should know, but there were no feelings words 444 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:05,400 Speaker 10: on there. So I knew she liked music. I knew 445 00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:07,600 Speaker 10: she liked dance. I knew she liked songs. So I 446 00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:10,240 Speaker 10: created these characters that gave her a way of talking 447 00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 10: to me about her feelings, like a Lot of Love, 448 00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 10: the lover Roo, Billy, the bill Bully Goat, Hattie, the 449 00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:20,320 Speaker 10: happy hippo, Wesley, the lonely well Slumpy, the sad Elephant. 450 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:22,000 Speaker 10: So when she would come to me and she says, 451 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 10: I'm feeling like Wesley, I knew she was lonely, and 452 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:27,080 Speaker 10: so it gave her the vocabulary. So it's almost like 453 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:29,640 Speaker 10: the first time I went to France, I couldn't speak 454 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:32,359 Speaker 10: the language was very difficult, So I gave my daughter 455 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:34,200 Speaker 10: the language to speak to me, to tell me about 456 00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:37,399 Speaker 10: her feelings. It's those things that we were taught at 457 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 10: a verb very young age, be nice beside all that 458 00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 10: kind of stuff, but we left off that feeling part 459 00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:45,639 Speaker 10: and being able to identify how we feel because you know, 460 00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:47,600 Speaker 10: as well as I know, all r age. Nobody let 461 00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:50,200 Speaker 10: us told us we could express how we feel. You 462 00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:52,480 Speaker 10: better sit down and be quiet, and that's the way 463 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:56,119 Speaker 10: it was. But now they're finding that social emotional learning 464 00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 10: is and that's called EQ emotional intelligence. It's just as 465 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,159 Speaker 10: Horton is IQ. And because if you do not know 466 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:05,720 Speaker 10: how to express how you feel and to manage your feelings, 467 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:07,120 Speaker 10: it's very difficult to learn. 468 00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:09,240 Speaker 2: Well, they're very difficults. 469 00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:13,280 Speaker 4: Associations of life every day every day life, you're being polite, yes, 470 00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:15,360 Speaker 4: and things like that. Because of the fact that's why 471 00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:18,359 Speaker 4: we're just talking about with with with social media, with 472 00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:22,600 Speaker 4: your whole life tied to your phone, that you can 473 00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:25,720 Speaker 4: really just stay in your room and be captivated by 474 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:26,879 Speaker 4: what's in your hand and not. 475 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,240 Speaker 10: Be able to communicate right and not be able to community, 476 00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:30,960 Speaker 10: and we still have to communicate. We were just in 477 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:33,919 Speaker 10: Starbucks downstairs, and so my partners were there and they 478 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:37,040 Speaker 10: were having difficulty communicating to the starboards barista what they 479 00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 10: wanted and they were getting frustrated. Behind the count I'm 480 00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:44,640 Speaker 10: watching all this, they were getting frustrated, and my folks 481 00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:47,960 Speaker 10: were getting frustrated. But they knew to manage their emotions, 482 00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:50,399 Speaker 10: and they just stepped up and managed their so not 483 00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:52,680 Speaker 10: to frustrate. So no one just had a fit. And Starbucks, 484 00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:53,680 Speaker 10: that's what it is. 485 00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:56,960 Speaker 2: You got got enough problem.

It's these twelve puppets like this, this is 524 00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:50,399 Speaker 10: a lot of love, and this is Billy the bullygoat right, 525 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:54,879 Speaker 10: Billy's yellow young, He's a bully.

She's not 528 00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:02,920 Speaker 10: going to change, She's not gonna change. And so Billy 529 00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:05,680 Speaker 10: a lot of takes Billy around the island. And all 530 00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:08,560 Speaker 10: the feeling friends tell Billy Bully how they feel when 531 00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:11,720 Speaker 10: he bullies them. Wow, And Billy comes to redemption. He says, 532 00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:12,840 Speaker 10: I can't do this anymore. 533 00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:14,040 Speaker 2: Life of that easy. 534 00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:17,440 Speaker 10: I can't do that anymore. But for us, no child 535 00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:18,879 Speaker 10: wants to be bully bully. 536 00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:22,160 Speaker 4: Right, no child, And so we really very early age, yes, 537 00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:23,960 Speaker 4: the whole principle of being a bully. 538 00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:24,760 Speaker 2: You're trying to. 539 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:27,680 Speaker 10: Wash it away, wash it away, correct, And so with that, 540 00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 10: and we are washing away because nobody wants to be 541 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:31,800 Speaker 10: Billy Bully. We have a character I don't have her 542 00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:36,320 Speaker 10: to day, but she is Winnifred the Worthy Wallers, renifredy 543 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:39,720 Speaker 10: no Wallers or something that beautiful. Wow, And Winnifred isn't 544 00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:41,680 Speaker 10: that beautiful? But her parents teach her that is the 545 00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:45,200 Speaker 10: love that lives inside of there. And Winnifred was really 546 00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:47,840 Speaker 10: birthed out of me when Whitney Houston died and I 547 00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:51,680 Speaker 10: heard Kevin Costner say, Whitney used to ask am I beautiful? 548 00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:53,159 Speaker 10: Am I smart? You know those kind of things. So 549 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:56,200 Speaker 10: she didn't even have that self worthiness. So Winnifred was 550 00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:58,320 Speaker 10: worth out of then she says, the love that lives 551 00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:01,200 Speaker 10: inside of me makes me worthy. We have so many 552 00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:06,040 Speaker 10: children and adults not feeling their worth. And when you 553 00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:08,960 Speaker 10: walk around feeling unworthy, you do not become the person 554 00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:11,720 Speaker 10: that you're destined to be. And so once we build 555 00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:13,959 Speaker 10: up your own worthiness and your self esteem, you can 556 00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:15,520 Speaker 10: go out there and do what you need to do, 557 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:17,879 Speaker 10: become the person that you need to be and fulfill 558 00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:19,159 Speaker 10: your real life's purpose. 559 00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:21,000 Speaker 2: So how does one get in touch with you?

They're like 688 00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:40,440 Speaker 4: this where this was my vision. They don't want to change. 689 00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:43,560 Speaker 4: There's no flexibility in the change. One of the things 690 00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:45,759 Speaker 4: that people always tell me, Rashan, you are the king 691 00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:48,799 Speaker 4: of change.

If you read 703 00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:30,160 Speaker 4: his book and you find that that I didn't know 704 00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:31,360 Speaker 4: about you, Matthew. 705 00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:33,040 Speaker 7: You know I don't talk about it. 706 00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:36,120 Speaker 2: You know I didn't know you could carry a note. 707 00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:37,960 Speaker 2: I read your book. You know what I'm saying. You 708 00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:40,680 Speaker 2: know you been going around there? Where did you get 709 00:35:40,719 --> 00:35:43,480 Speaker 2: to daddy? Daddy, the daddy. That's where the voice came from. 710 00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:47,040 Speaker 2: The kids, the daddy. So let's talk about that. Man. Listen. 711 00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:49,200 Speaker 4: You know the fun thing about this, this is why 712 00:35:49,200 --> 00:35:50,360 Speaker 4: I wanted to bring over. So first of all, the 713 00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:53,000 Speaker 4: audio was bad, and I want everybody to know that 714 00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:56,480 Speaker 4: telling your story sometimes it's good to get your story out. 715 00:35:56,640 --> 00:35:59,840 Speaker 2: Let somebody else, like Rishan McDonald help you tell your story. 716 00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:02,000 Speaker 4: And the fact that you could sing, and the fact 717 00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:05,839 Speaker 4: that you know you came from this small country town 718 00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:07,839 Speaker 4: and you wanted to get out of it, and its 719 00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:11,000 Speaker 4: shaped who you are today, and that's what this book 720 00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:13,480 Speaker 4: is all about, and and and and and that's why 721 00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:14,000 Speaker 4: you wrote it. 722 00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:14,520 Speaker 2: Correct. 723 00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:17,239 Speaker 7: Yeah, well, that's certainly one of the reasons. I learned. 724 00:36:17,640 --> 00:36:20,239 Speaker 7: One of the things with Sean that if you and 725 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:22,640 Speaker 7: I at this point in our life, if we don't 726 00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:26,959 Speaker 7: tell our story. Somebody else will tell it and won't 727 00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:29,240 Speaker 7: It would be his story, it won't be our story. 728 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:33,600 Speaker 7: So it's important that I tell my story because I 729 00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:36,040 Speaker 7: listen to people. Man, I hear all kinds of people 730 00:36:36,200 --> 00:36:40,160 Speaker 7: managed Beyonce put the group together. They were respond before 731 00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:43,480 Speaker 7: and I was like, well, I don't remember these people. 732 00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:44,400 Speaker 6: I love it. 733 00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:47,759 Speaker 2: I love it, believe me. You know, you know with Steve, 734 00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:49,160 Speaker 2: it's a lot of peoples, not a lot of things 735 00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:51,880 Speaker 2: with Steve Harvey that that I did. You know what 736 00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:52,319 Speaker 2: I'm saying. 737 00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:54,719 Speaker 4: So so, but they out there taking credit. And that's 738 00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:58,600 Speaker 4: why I tell people today it's called brandy. It's not bragging. 739 00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:01,879 Speaker 4: It's called branding and taking credit. It's called if it's 740 00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:03,880 Speaker 4: only that, make sure your name is attached where it's 741 00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:06,520 Speaker 4: supposed to be attached, because that's how you that's how 742 00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:09,520 Speaker 4: you generate revenue, and that's how you generate credibility, because 743 00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:12,080 Speaker 4: as soon as people say your name, they'll google you, 744 00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:16,399 Speaker 4: and exactly if it's not matching up, it can cost 745 00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:18,239 Speaker 4: you a relationship, it can cost you a money, It 746 00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:20,399 Speaker 4: costs you money, and it also can cost you a deal. 747 00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:22,960 Speaker 4: And so that's why when you said that that is 748 00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:26,680 Speaker 4: so true. How people, if you allow them, they will 749 00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:29,600 Speaker 4: take credit for your hard work. So that's all a 750 00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:32,560 Speaker 4: part of the branding process. And I'm sure that is 751 00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:35,840 Speaker 4: a big part of your conversation where you're talking to students. 752 00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:38,920 Speaker 7: It is it is. Branding is everything and and and 753 00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:46,319 Speaker 7: a lot of folks don't understand branding or endorsements opportunity. 754 00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:49,360 Speaker 7: You know, I enjoy teaching. I might not be a 755 00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:54,840 Speaker 7: Texas Southern this semester. There's a possibility.

They were then sell it, 996 00:49:48,640 --> 00:49:50,800 Speaker 6: and I was like, duh, And it's because I didn't 997 00:49:50,840 --> 00:49:54,279 Speaker 6: have any intent for it to become a company. It 998 00:49:54,440 --> 00:49:56,640 Speaker 6: was just it was pleasing to me as well as 999 00:49:56,719 --> 00:50:00,720 Speaker 6: my friends. Again, and from there I began petitioning grocery stores, 1000 00:50:00,760 --> 00:50:02,840 Speaker 6: and obviously I did it wrong initially. 1001 00:50:06,120 --> 00:50:08,480 Speaker 4: Let's you kind of so you went from in your 1002 00:50:08,600 --> 00:50:11,839 Speaker 4: kitchen messing around your refrigerator, now you're in grocery store. 1003 00:50:11,880 --> 00:50:14,840 Speaker 4: And that's a step between that and now because you know, 1004 00:50:15,200 --> 00:50:18,600 Speaker 4: because the getting your product, did you start selling it 1005 00:50:19,280 --> 00:50:21,480 Speaker 4: affairs and local places? 1006 00:50:22,080 --> 00:50:22,279 Speaker 6: You do? 1007 00:50:22,560 --> 00:50:24,080 Speaker 2: How did you guy?

So 1013 00:50:38,880 --> 00:50:41,360 Speaker 6: then I went around to the seafood market and with 1014 00:50:41,560 --> 00:50:44,040 Speaker 6: my tumbleware dish was wrong because you know, you got 1015 00:50:44,120 --> 00:50:51,680 Speaker 6: to be FDA proved and all this kind of stuffativity. 1016 00:50:48,719 --> 00:50:52,160 Speaker 4: You really were couting, you going around a couple a 1017 00:50:52,280 --> 00:50:54,400 Speaker 4: tupperware dish trying to get somebody to sale. 1018 00:50:54,719 --> 00:50:56,320 Speaker 2: By that all truth. 1019 00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:59,000 Speaker 6: Here, all truth tuplewere dish.

So from there 1025 00:51:15,120 --> 00:51:19,120 Speaker 6: I researched. You have to mass craft, that's extremely important. 1026 00:51:19,440 --> 00:51:22,840 Speaker 6: I researched on how to bottle, how to label, and 1027 00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:25,080 Speaker 6: I would go in grocery stores and I would look 1028 00:51:25,160 --> 00:51:29,279 Speaker 6: at the labels and see, well, where's the distributed where's 1029 00:51:29,320 --> 00:51:32,520 Speaker 6: the manufacturer, just to get some sort of idea because 1030 00:51:32,560 --> 00:51:36,759 Speaker 6: I honestly had no knowledge of it.
