567
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:23,840
Speaker 1: room for a while, you know, a lot of thoughts

568
00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:28,320
Speaker 1: and luckily, you know, you have people around that you

569
00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:30,640
Speaker 1: kind of outside ideas. But it just been you know,

570
00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:32,720

Speaker 1: so it just kind of like you just kind of

573
00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:41,320
Speaker 1: figuring out and at the end of the day, like

574
00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:43,160
Speaker 1: these fans of your family, so you just feel like

575
00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:46,960

576
00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:50,240

577
00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:52,160
Speaker 1: to have the best experience, you know, and just to

578
00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:54,800
Speaker 1: think to something like this happened. You just trying to

579
00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:58,120
Speaker 1: figure out you know, you know, just wrap everything around.

580
00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:01,480
Speaker 1: And so even just for the first couple a couple

581
00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:03,840
Speaker 1: of weeks, you know, it was just me sitting down,

582
00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:07,239
Speaker 1: but I had to really channel these emotions to just remember, like,

583
00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:09,080
Speaker 1: you know, if no one's gonna be a voice to

584
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:10,800
Speaker 1: these people, I gotta like kind of step up and

585
00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:12,680
Speaker 1: kind of like be a voice to just figure out

586
00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:14,920
Speaker 1: that you know, this isn't happened in the future, to

587
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:18,280
Speaker 1: show is period, you know what I'm saying, or figure

588
00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:20,520
Speaker 1: out the bottom solution of what's going on, and just

589
00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:24,320
Speaker 1: trying to ensure as people, you know, safety and what

590
00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:26,600
Speaker 1: they're doing. You know, you said you was in the room,

591

596
00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:43,960

603
00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:05,240
Speaker 1: after the show, you know, you're just kind of hearing

604
00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:07,920
Speaker 1: hearing things, but you don't know. I didn't know the

605
00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:11,760
Speaker 1: exact details until you know, minutes before the press conference.

606
00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:14,880
Speaker 1: And even at that moment you kind of just like wait,

607
00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:17,760
Speaker 1: you know what, Like you know, you just went through

608
00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:20,400
Speaker 1: something and it's just like wait what you know, So

609
00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:25,200
Speaker 1: you didn't know people that actually passed away until minutes before,

610
00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:27,720
Speaker 1: you know, which is you know, and at the thing,

611
00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:29,920
Speaker 1: it's like, you know, people pass out, you know people,

612
00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:33,720
Speaker 1: you know, things happen at concerts, but something like that,

613
00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:42,240
Speaker 1: it's just like, yeah, people said they are collectively, they

614
00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:45,680
Speaker 1: collectively heard folks scream and help every time you stop

615
00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 1: the song to get your attention, did you did you

616
00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:50,640
Speaker 1: hear any of those screams, nah man. And you know

617
00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:53,760
Speaker 1: it's so crazy because I'm not I'm not artist too, Like,

618
00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:55,640
Speaker 1: you know, anytime you can hear something like that, you

619
00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:57,920
Speaker 1: want to stop the show. You want to make sure,

620
00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:00,840
Speaker 1: you know, fans get the property and they need you know,

621
00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:03,920
Speaker 1: And anytime I could see anything like that, I did,

622
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:06,520
Speaker 1: you know, you know, I stopped like a couple of

623
00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:09,680
Speaker 1: times to just make sure everybody was okay, and I

624
00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:11,400
Speaker 1: just really just go off the you know, the fans

625
00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:14,840
Speaker 1: energy as a collective, you know, call a response. And

626
00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:17,840
Speaker 1: I just didn't. I just didn't hear that. You know,

627
00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:21,280
Speaker 1: I got music, I got my inears, but I just didn't.

628
00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:23,320
Speaker 1: I just didn't hear that. You know, break that down

629
00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:25,160
Speaker 1: a little more like Nope, nobody knows what it's like

630
00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:28,960
Speaker 1: being on stage except for other artists who speak to

631
00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:31,880
Speaker 1: us from that perspective of what you can see in here.

632
00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:33,840
Speaker 1: It was like fifty thousand people. Yeah, I mean you

633
00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:37,920
Speaker 1: got like a view, you know, feel like fifty thousand people.

634
00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:40,400
Speaker 1: But it's like a see, you got lights, you got sound,

635
00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:42,640
Speaker 1: you got pyro, you got you know, you got your inears,

636
00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:45,200
Speaker 1: got your sound, got your mic, you know, got the music,

637
00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:49,160
Speaker 1: You got bands, all type of you know, stuff going on,

638
00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:52,080
Speaker 1: so it's it's hard to tell excitement from from from

639
00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:54,400
Speaker 1: dangerous or to speak of course, everything kind of just

640
00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:56,080
Speaker 1: sounds the same. And at the end of the day,

641
00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:58,760
Speaker 1: you just hear music, you know, and when you do,

642
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:02,080
Speaker 1: you just hear amongks of things. You know, but you

643
00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:04,360
Speaker 1: just when you're in the show, you just into the show.

644
00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:07,760
Speaker 1: And anytime you can feel anything closely, you know, you

645
00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:10,400
Speaker 1: try to like definitely get to that. So so as

646
00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:13,640
Speaker 1: an artist, how much can you actually, I guess help

647
00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:16,400
Speaker 1: in that position. You can only help what you can see,

648
00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:18,680
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. And then what you know,

649
00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:21,480
Speaker 1: whatever you's told, you know what I'm saying. Whenever it

650
00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:25,840
Speaker 1: somebody tell you to stop, you just stop. But just

651
00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:29,560
Speaker 1: wasn't it was It wasn't that night, huh. You know, raging.

652
00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:31,640
Speaker 1: Raging has been a part of the culture, you know,

653
00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:34,080
Speaker 1: of your shows. You know you didn't on this night,

654
00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:36,720
Speaker 1: but in the past you've encouraged I guess the kind

655
00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:39,000
Speaker 1: of energy that could have led to something like this happening.

656
00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:43,560
Speaker 1: Do you think that contributed to the energy of this night? Yeah, nah,

657
00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:47,000
Speaker 1: I think you know, It's something I've been working on

658
00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:50,000
Speaker 1: you know, for a while, um of just creating these

659
00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:53,280
Speaker 1: experiences and trying to show like the experiences happening in

660
00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:55,960
Speaker 1: a safe environment. You know, us as artists, we trust

661
00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:58,720
Speaker 1: you know, professionals to make sure that you know, things

662
00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:02,120
Speaker 1: happen to people leave you safely, you know what I'm saying. Um.

663
00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:04,640
Speaker 1: And it's not just like a regular show. You know,

664
00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:07,360
Speaker 1: it felt like to me um as far as like

665
00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:09,680
Speaker 1: you know, the energy people, it didn't feel like it

666
00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:12,000
Speaker 1: was like you know, people didn't I don't people didn't

667
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:15,480
Speaker 1: show up there to just be harmful people just I

668
00:34:15,480 --> 00:34:17,000
Speaker 1: think showed up to have a good time. And then

669
00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:20,479
Speaker 1: you know, something unfortunate happened, and I think we really

670
00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:22,719
Speaker 1: just got to figure out, you know what that was.

671
00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:25,960
Speaker 1: You know, does raging make it harder to identify when

672
00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:28,920
Speaker 1: something is going wrong in the crowd? Well, I think

673
00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:32,560
Speaker 1: raging is just a you know, they have a textbook,

674
00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:35,120
Speaker 1: you know definition. But you know, in the concerts and

675
00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:38,520
Speaker 1: we've grown it to be just experience of having fun.

676
00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:42,080
Speaker 1: It's not about just oh, harm, It's not about that.

677
00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:44,719
Speaker 1: It's about just letting go and having fun. You know,

678
00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:48,560
Speaker 1: help others, no, love each other. It's not about just

679
00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:52,719
Speaker 1: you know, harm. That's not what it's all about. The

680
00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:57,239
Speaker 1: show isn't just rambunctious for hour. You know, that's not

681
00:34:57,280 --> 00:34:59,680
Speaker 1: what it is. Oh, trust me, I grew up on crunk,

682
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:03,000
Speaker 1: so you know I understand. You know, you just don't

683
00:35:03,040 --> 00:35:05,680
Speaker 1: you don't want it to get two out of hand. Yeah,

684
00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:08,120
Speaker 1: but you know the code. You know, the energy is high,

685
00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:11,040
Speaker 1: you know, and you know, and that's why you want

686
00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:13,360
Speaker 1: to just make sure that, you know, people are surrounded

687
00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:15,360
Speaker 1: to make sure that people are just having the best experience.

688
00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:17,480
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. You know, I can't say

689
00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:20,200
Speaker 1: the energy is high, but you know you want to

690
00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:23,319
Speaker 1: make sure that people are there for people to have

691
00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:25,640
Speaker 1: like the best experience in league. Yeah, you want people

692
00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:27,560
Speaker 1: to have a good time. You want people to get

693
00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:31,160
Speaker 1: hurt at all. Yeah. Yeah, and God forbid passed away.

694
00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:33,960
Speaker 1: And you know it's typical for you to stop a

695
00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:36,319
Speaker 1: show to make sure fans in the crowd get to help,

696
00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:38,640
Speaker 1: you know, they need They even footage of that night

697
00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:41,400
Speaker 1: of you doing that during the set where you unable

698
00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:45,040
Speaker 1: to sense like a difference in urgency this time around,

699
00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:48,200
Speaker 1: I mean yeah, because you know, you stop the show,

700
00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:50,359
Speaker 1: but you know, you know, if someone's gonna happen. If

701
00:35:50,360 --> 00:35:52,920
Speaker 1: it's something detrimental, somebody's gonna let you know, you know,

702
00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:55,279
Speaker 1: or you know, the show just stop them. And you

703
00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:57,160
Speaker 1: know that just wasn't the case. You know, I just

704
00:35:57,280 --> 00:35:59,200
Speaker 1: kind of stop the show. You know, you just asked.

705
00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:01,840
Speaker 1: You have a call of re sponsor the fans. Um

706
00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:03,880
Speaker 1: you try to, you know, generally get a response, but

707
00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:08,080
Speaker 1: you know, if you don't get like a hard stop,

708
00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:10,880
Speaker 1: you know, it's just you can't. You just don't. You

709
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:12,840
Speaker 1: just go off of what's going on, you know, which

710
00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:19,040
Speaker 1: makes it so like so crazy because like, you know,

711
00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:21,440
Speaker 1: if I feel like, if you know, anyone wouldn't know

712
00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:23,080
Speaker 1: and it would have just been like it wouldn't have

713
00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:25,719
Speaker 1: gotten far, you know. All Right, we got more with

714
00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:28,680
Speaker 1: Travis Scott and Charlemagne there one on one conversation, so

Speaker 1: Travis Scott and Charlemagne spoke yesterday, so we're getting that

720
00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:48,120
Speaker 1: back on this morning. Yeah, we chopped it up yesterday,

721
00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:50,480
Speaker 1: you know. Um and you know, as you can see

722
00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:54,319
Speaker 1: if you've been listening, he's being very open about the situation.

723
00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:58,120
Speaker 1: But at Afterworld in Houston, Texas, the tragedy that happened

724
00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:00,680
Speaker 1: on November fifth at after World and US in Texas.

725
00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:03,200
Speaker 1: But you can you can see his brain, you know,

726
00:37:03,320 --> 00:37:05,560
Speaker 1: going on just how to make sure this never happens again.

727
00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:08,960
Speaker 1: But you know, keep listening, all right, and here's part two.

728
00:37:09,040 --> 00:37:11,960
Speaker 1: It's the Breakfast Club, Go Morning. What headspace were you

729
00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:15,640
Speaker 1: when you posted that that initial that initial response video.

730
00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:17,200
Speaker 1: I mean it was I think it has to been

731
00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:20,520
Speaker 1: the night of you know, Um, so I was just

732
00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:23,480
Speaker 1: in a headspace of just trying to get a communication

733
00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:26,720
Speaker 1: out to my fans, you know, and I had literally

734
00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:29,160
Speaker 1: no information, you know, so I was just trying to

735
00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:32,279
Speaker 1: figure it out and just communicate to them. You know. Yeah.

736
00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:36,439
Speaker 1: I was just reacting, just literally just to get something

737
00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:38,200
Speaker 1: to the fans. You know, there's people that showed up.

738
00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:41,720
Speaker 1: Do you regret that initial video? Do you regret reacting

739
00:37:41,719 --> 00:37:43,200
Speaker 1: in that way or not, like not having all the

740
00:37:43,239 --> 00:37:46,279
Speaker 1: information before you said something. I mean yeah, because you know,

741
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:48,239
Speaker 1: you just don't know what's going on. But at the

742
00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:49,759
Speaker 1: end of the day. I don't, you know, I just

743
00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:51,800
Speaker 1: wanted to get something out, you know, how my messages

744
00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:54,000
Speaker 1: came out, I can't you know, I can only go

745
00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:56,000
Speaker 1: off for that, you know what I know. But my

746
00:37:56,160 --> 00:37:59,359
Speaker 1: Truman titches of it, you know, was really just trying

747
00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:02,000
Speaker 1: to get a message across. And you know, I really

748
00:38:02,040 --> 00:38:04,719
Speaker 1: wanted to just touch the fans, touching the families. You

749
00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:07,000
Speaker 1: know that we here, we're grieving and we would get

750
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:09,359
Speaker 1: through this, you know, through this process. So what did

751
00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:12,480
Speaker 1: you know in that first video? I mean at that time,

752
00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:14,320
Speaker 1: I think we just knew that you know, people passed,

753
00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:17,080
Speaker 1: you know, Um, we didn't know how you know that

754
00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:19,279
Speaker 1: it was you know the news. You know, I think

755
00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:22,440
Speaker 1: police came out and said something. Um, you know, you're

756
00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:24,040
Speaker 1: just going off of what you're seeing in the in

757
00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:26,160
Speaker 1: the in the news. You know, you don't really know nothing.

758
00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:28,200
Speaker 1: And then as it did go on, you started collecting

759
00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:31,480
Speaker 1: a little bit more information. They said there was they

760
00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:35,480
Speaker 1: would like chaos and trampling being reported since the early afternoon,

761
00:38:35,840 --> 00:38:38,000
Speaker 1: like like hours before the show even started. Were you

762
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:40,520
Speaker 1: informed of any of that ahead of time? Well? No,

763
00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:45,040
Speaker 1: like um and um, you know the police he came

764
00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:48,319
Speaker 1: he came in um to my trailer and you know

765
00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:51,640
Speaker 1: he congratulated me on you know, the event and you know,

766
00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:55,120
Speaker 1: having something like this in Houston. You let me know

767
00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:58,239
Speaker 1: that this it was, you know, mishap at the merged

768
00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:00,120
Speaker 1: booth earlier. You know they shut it down with they

769
00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:02,160
Speaker 1: opened it back up. They she even got it under control.

770
00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:04,279
Speaker 1: You know, he was gonna step out and just let

771
00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:06,560
Speaker 1: us know if we need anything, you know, have a

772
00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:10,520
Speaker 1: good show. That was it. You know a lot of

773
00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:13,160
Speaker 1: the criticism, you know from the tragedy they say is

774
00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:16,400
Speaker 1: and the poor planning and understaffing of the end of

775
00:39:16,440 --> 00:39:19,799
Speaker 1: the event. As an artist, that you have any involvement

776
00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:22,359
Speaker 1: in any of that, well, I mean we just as

777
00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:24,440
Speaker 1: an artist, you just do the creative and for this

778
00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:26,000
Speaker 1: to be my festival, you know, I got you know,

779
00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:29,360
Speaker 1: bring artists you know, creatively produce it and you know

780
00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:31,759
Speaker 1: we're just trusting you know, the professionals to kind of

781
00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:34,600
Speaker 1: just make sure that you know, people you know taking

782
00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:37,000
Speaker 1: care of and you know, leaving safely. You know, I

783
00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:39,840
Speaker 1: just can control what I can on the stage and

784
00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:41,719
Speaker 1: then you know you have the professionals control what they

785
00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:43,839
Speaker 1: can in the crowd. You know, it's just hard because

786
00:39:43,880 --> 00:39:46,640
Speaker 1: as an artist, you know, you want to have like

787
00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:49,759
Speaker 1: the best shows and you want to have the best experiences,

788
00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:54,240
Speaker 1: and you you know, you link with professionals to handle

789
00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:58,680
Speaker 1: that side of it, you know, and you know you

790
00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:00,279
Speaker 1: want to know what's going on. I think that's what

791
00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:03,080
Speaker 1: we got to figure out, you know, and figure out

792
00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:06,640
Speaker 1: what happened there, how that happened. You know, you spoke

793
00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:09,600
Speaker 1: on the Houston Police chief. His name is that Troy Finna.

794
00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:12,279
Speaker 1: He came to you and he said he voiced concerns

795
00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:15,200
Speaker 1: over the crowd energy. So what did you on your

796
00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:17,799
Speaker 1: team like do with that information. Well, I think that's

797
00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:20,919
Speaker 1: what the media. Um, I think that's what the media said.

798
00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:23,480
Speaker 1: But I think I think it read too more so

799
00:40:23,640 --> 00:40:26,440
Speaker 1: that he wanted us to He knew that our crowd was,

800
00:40:26,600 --> 00:40:28,280
Speaker 1: you know, the type of crowd that comes it comes

801
00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:30,960
Speaker 1: to a heavy crowd. So to communicate with him if

802
00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:34,040
Speaker 1: we were doing anything outside of the week's itinerary, you know,

803
00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:36,520
Speaker 1: um that week we were doing like a lot of

804
00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:38,759
Speaker 1: charity stuff prior to the festival, so you know the

805
00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:41,799
Speaker 1: security at most of the events. But you know, he

806
00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:43,640
Speaker 1: was just letting us, you know, I guess in that statement,

807
00:40:43,640 --> 00:40:45,279
Speaker 1: he was just saying, if we do anything outside of

808
00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:49,359
Speaker 1: what we had on our itinerary, let him know. But

809
00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:51,640
Speaker 1: you know, we didn't even get to that point. You know,

810
00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:53,520
Speaker 1: it's crazy, just you know, being a kicking it with

811
00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:54,840
Speaker 1: you for a little bit, Like I can see that

812
00:40:55,600 --> 00:40:59,640
Speaker 1: you know, this is Wayne real heavy on it. Yeah. So,

813
00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:05,200
Speaker 1: so how much do you feel a sense of responsibility

814
00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:08,479
Speaker 1: for what happened at night? Well, you know, fans come

815
00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:10,759
Speaker 1: to have a come to the show and have a

816
00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:15,960
Speaker 1: good experience, you know, Um, and I have a responsibility

817
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:19,640
Speaker 1: to figure out what happened here. I have a responsibility

818
00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:22,680
Speaker 1: to figure out the solution. And hopefully this takes the

819
00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:27,080
Speaker 1: first step into you know, us as artists, you know,

820
00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:29,840
Speaker 1: having that more insight of what's going on. You know

821
00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:34,120
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Um, the professionals to kind of you know,

822
00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:37,560
Speaker 1: surround and figure out more of an intel, whether it's tech,

823
00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:39,839
Speaker 1: whether it's you know, more of a response, whether it's

824
00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:43,600
Speaker 1: whatever the problem is, you know, UM, to figure out

825
00:41:43,640 --> 00:41:46,600
Speaker 1: that in the future and moving forward in concert safety,

826
00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:49,200
Speaker 1: make sure it just never happened again. You know. But

827
00:41:49,280 --> 00:41:51,960
Speaker 1: let's talk about those professionals, like how much how much

828
00:41:51,960 --> 00:41:55,560
Speaker 1: responsibility do you think like Live Nation and score more.

829
00:41:55,640 --> 00:41:59,160
Speaker 1: The promoters having all of this, I mean, they do

830
00:41:59,239 --> 00:42:02,719
Speaker 1: their job of you know, setting these things up. So

831
00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:06,319
Speaker 1: I mean I think they when we dial into what

832
00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:09,759
Speaker 1: you know, specifically happen here, I feel like, you know,

833
00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:12,839
Speaker 1: even they can kind of help, you know, figure out

834
00:42:13,800 --> 00:42:17,640
Speaker 1: what happened in the sense um you know. But at

835
00:42:17,640 --> 00:42:19,719
Speaker 1: the end of the day, I think collectively everyone needs

836
00:42:19,760 --> 00:42:23,120
Speaker 1: to just figure out the bottom line solution. But you know,

837
00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:26,680
Speaker 1: especially in concert safety, you know, definitely got to have

838
00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:30,360
Speaker 1: you know, make sure that you know these things are

839
00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:33,200
Speaker 1: you know, done right. You think he's afestival are too

840
00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:36,239
Speaker 1: big man, pifty dollars people with a lot of people

841
00:42:36,239 --> 00:42:40,160
Speaker 1: for anybody to their festivals that are bigger, you know,

842
00:42:40,360 --> 00:42:45,920
Speaker 1: way bigger, And you know, I just think it's not

843
00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:48,799
Speaker 1: about the maximum of it. I think it's about the

844
00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:51,600
Speaker 1: attension to what's going on and how it's going on.

845
00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:54,839
Speaker 1: And as long as that's handle, I feel like things

846
00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:57,680
Speaker 1: can be you know, can go okay, We'll be okay,

847
00:42:57,719 --> 00:43:00,360
Speaker 1: you know. But if you look at it through the

848
00:43:00,400 --> 00:43:03,239
Speaker 1: history of festivals, you know, um, this isn't the first

849
00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:05,200
Speaker 1: time happening. It's been a long history of this, you know.

850
00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:08,160
Speaker 1: So I feel like if you look at the overall

851
00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:12,440
Speaker 1: you know, view of that, and you kind of like dolling, Okay,

852
00:43:12,520 --> 00:43:14,680
Speaker 1: what can we do better to fix this overall for

853
00:43:14,800 --> 00:43:17,680
Speaker 1: general concert safety? I think we figure out the problem,

854
00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:20,440
Speaker 1: you know, um and make it better for people to

855
00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:25,279
Speaker 1: have better live experiences. Live Nation reportedly agreed to end

856
00:43:25,320 --> 00:43:28,560
Speaker 1: the concert early after the Houston PD and the Fire

857
00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:31,280
Speaker 1: Department declared it a match casualty event, but the concert

858
00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:34,640
Speaker 1: continued for another forty minutes. Was there any ever any

859
00:43:34,640 --> 00:43:38,480
Speaker 1: communication to you on stage that you should in this? Well? Yeah,

860
00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:40,759
Speaker 1: I mean it just told me right after you know,

861
00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:43,040
Speaker 1: the guests can get off stage, you know, we're gonna

862
00:43:43,080 --> 00:43:44,799
Speaker 1: end the show, you know, and that's what we did.

863
00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:48,839
Speaker 1: No other than that, there was no other communication, you know,

864
00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:51,439
Speaker 1: so after after the guests what you mean, Yeah, after

865
00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:53,440
Speaker 1: the guests comes out, okay, we're gonna we're gonna end

866
00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:56,239
Speaker 1: the show. But it wasn't a communication on why, you know.

867
00:43:56,520 --> 00:43:58,439
Speaker 1: It was just you know, that's what came through my ears,

868
00:43:58,440 --> 00:44:02,760
Speaker 1: you know, So they didn't say stopping. Now, know. Wow,

869
00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:06,040
Speaker 1: you feel like people are forcing more responsibility on you

870
00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:09,880
Speaker 1: because you are the front man, because it was astral World.

871
00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:12,080
Speaker 1: Well yeah, I mean, you know, I'm gonna you know,

872
00:44:12,120 --> 00:44:15,080
Speaker 1: I'm the face of the festival. You know, I'm an artist,

873
00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:18,520
Speaker 1: you know. UM, so yeah, you know, the media is

874
00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:22,919
Speaker 1: you know, they yeah, they want to you know, put

875
00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:24,399
Speaker 1: it on me, and but at the end of the day,

876
00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:27,160
Speaker 1: it's like, I don't think it's more so about that.

877
00:44:27,239 --> 00:44:30,840
Speaker 1: I think it's more so about um stepping up to

878
00:44:30,840 --> 00:44:32,920
Speaker 1: figure out what the problem is. And I could take that.

879
00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:36,120
Speaker 1: I could take you know, stepping up to figure out

880
00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:38,320
Speaker 1: what the problem is. I could take stepping into figuring

881
00:44:38,320 --> 00:44:40,160
Speaker 1: out the solution that had never happened again, because that's

882
00:44:40,160 --> 00:44:42,880
Speaker 1: what I generally want to do in general, even just

883
00:44:42,920 --> 00:44:45,759
Speaker 1: for my community. You know. The whole idea for why

884
00:44:45,760 --> 00:44:48,880
Speaker 1: I brought this festival to the city was to you know,

885
00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:52,239
Speaker 1: show that Houston is something different, you know, and show

886
00:44:52,280 --> 00:44:54,560
Speaker 1: that there's all different types of lives, is all different

887
00:44:54,600 --> 00:44:57,799
Speaker 1: type of energy, and just bring that morale to the

888
00:44:57,840 --> 00:45:01,239
Speaker 1: city and just bring that energy to the city. So

889
00:45:02,080 --> 00:45:04,520
Speaker 1: I definitely want to you know, step in to figure out,

890
00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:06,960
Speaker 1: you know, how can we fix this in the future,

891
00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:11,600
Speaker 1: what can we do to you know, change these things.

892
00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:14,360
Speaker 1: You know, do you feel like you did everything you

893
00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:19,600
Speaker 1: possibly could to help in that situation? Yes, Yes, anything

894
00:45:19,600 --> 00:45:23,440
Speaker 1: I physically care for sure, yes, and it just you know,

895
00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:27,920
Speaker 1: if knowing you know what's going on, you know, you

896
00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:31,440
Speaker 1: would just wish, you know, if you you know, couldn't

897
00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:37,600
Speaker 1: something better, you know. But standing there, all right, we

00:47:09,680 --> 00:47:11,600

00:47:11,680 --> 00:47:14,360
Speaker 1: to the music or it came to my shows, and

929
00:47:14,480 --> 00:47:18,040

930
00:47:18,120 --> 00:47:21,600
Speaker 1: me even just you know, t even like you know,

931
00:47:23,080 --> 00:47:28,840

941
00:48:03,200 --> 00:48:05,480
Speaker 1: that's like one of the what we what we got

942
00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:08,960
Speaker 1: to figure out because other than that, it's like, you know,

943
00:48:09,719 --> 00:48:13,399
Speaker 1: the show goes on tomorrow or you know, something goes

944
00:48:13,680 --> 00:48:15,839
Speaker 1: How does it? How does this get fixed? This could

945
00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:18,920
Speaker 1: happen again, just happened before. Yeah, yeah, you're you're you're

946
00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:21,799
Speaker 1: a father, you know, God forbid when your kids are

947
00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:24,719
Speaker 1: of age, if they're in a situation like this, you

948
00:48:24,760 --> 00:48:28,000
Speaker 1: know what you do put yourself in those parents shoes

949
00:48:28,120 --> 00:48:30,200
Speaker 1: right now? What would what would you want to see

950
00:48:30,280 --> 00:48:34,600
Speaker 1: come of this situation? If you I want to see

951
00:48:34,680 --> 00:48:37,120
Speaker 1: people put their heads together. I would want to see

952
00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:43,279
Speaker 1: people really figure this out, not take this lightly, you know, um,

953
00:48:43,640 --> 00:48:46,480
Speaker 1: and really act on it. And that's you know, that's

954
00:48:46,520 --> 00:48:49,400
Speaker 1: one of the main things that's important. I feel like

955
00:48:49,440 --> 00:48:51,480
Speaker 1: they gotta just act on it. It can't just be

956
00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:56,360
Speaker 1: like something that happens and it just roll over. We

957
00:48:56,440 --> 00:48:59,760
Speaker 1: got to be something that's taken serious. And address seriously

958
00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:03,960
Speaker 1: and things formed around it. Time and a lot of

959
00:49:04,320 --> 00:49:06,680
Speaker 1: a lot of time and a lot of you know,

960
00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:10,120
Speaker 1: thinking power is spent on this, you know, and really

961
00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:14,040
Speaker 1: fixing you know, whatever system it just needs to be fixed,

962
00:49:14,080 --> 00:49:17,200
Speaker 1: you know, from the lawsuits to the media coverage to

963
00:49:17,320 --> 00:49:21,440
Speaker 1: do Do you feel like you're personally under attack? I mean,

964
00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:24,680
Speaker 1: I mean yeah, I mean you see a name in

965
00:49:24,719 --> 00:49:30,719
Speaker 1: it and it and it's like but you know, at

966
00:49:30,760 --> 00:49:32,560
Speaker 1: the end of the day, you step in these you know,

967
00:49:33,040 --> 00:49:35,400
Speaker 1: you step you want to do a festival, and you

968
00:49:35,480 --> 00:49:37,799
Speaker 1: know when we want to do things and you want

969
00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:40,279
Speaker 1: to build up. You know, it comes with certain things, right,

970
00:49:40,400 --> 00:49:43,279
Speaker 1: So I think it's all about how you respond to it.

971
00:49:43,320 --> 00:49:45,080
Speaker 1: And I think it's all about how you react, right

972
00:49:45,160 --> 00:49:48,759
Speaker 1: So I could feel that way, but I think more

973
00:49:48,880 --> 00:49:52,080
Speaker 1: so about it's more about how I feel about the

974
00:49:52,120 --> 00:49:54,880
Speaker 1: response that I that I that I'm that I care

975
00:49:54,880 --> 00:49:59,440
Speaker 1: about more so, which is you know, actually, you know,

976
00:49:59,600 --> 00:50:02,160
Speaker 1: trying to step in and you know, really step up

977
00:50:02,640 --> 00:50:07,520
Speaker 1: to really fixing what's happening and and really step up

978
00:50:07,560 --> 00:50:10,000
Speaker 1: for the safety or concert cours or people in just

979
00:50:10,280 --> 00:50:15,320
Speaker 1: live spaces period. I wonder, I wonder is there a

980
00:50:15,440 --> 00:50:18,080
Speaker 1: way to even prepare for this because nobody, like you said,

981
00:50:18,120 --> 00:50:19,759
Speaker 1: when you're doing the planning for a show like this,

982
00:50:19,920 --> 00:50:22,640
Speaker 1: nobody is planning for this to happen. So how do

983
00:50:22,719 --> 00:50:24,960
Speaker 1: you how do you even prepare for something like this

984
00:50:25,040 --> 00:50:28,960
Speaker 1: step I don't know. And I feel like when we

985
00:50:29,080 --> 00:50:32,200
Speaker 1: get I feel like, when it comes out a little

986
00:50:32,200 --> 00:50:34,080
Speaker 1: bit more how this could have happened. I feel like

987
00:50:34,560 --> 00:50:38,399
Speaker 1: that's how we can kind of attack that. But even

988
00:50:38,440 --> 00:50:40,600
Speaker 1: I was thinking in ways like tech solutions. You know,

989
00:50:40,960 --> 00:50:44,680
Speaker 1: people come into these festivals with these bands that only

990
00:50:44,760 --> 00:50:48,200
Speaker 1: scan you in right, you have you know, we have

991
00:50:48,360 --> 00:50:50,399
Speaker 1: all type of tech now that can track your heart

992
00:50:51,360 --> 00:50:55,320
Speaker 1: contract your you know, oxygen levels, contracting, the sick. You

993
00:50:55,400 --> 00:50:57,600
Speaker 1: can put things now if you're gonna be you know,

994
00:50:57,680 --> 00:51:00,320
Speaker 1: get lost. It's all type of ways now, like that

995
00:51:00,440 --> 00:51:03,080
Speaker 1: can be the band that only gets you access to

996
00:51:03,360 --> 00:51:05,560
Speaker 1: entry or to the food line or two food trucks

997
00:51:06,000 --> 00:51:08,960
Speaker 1: can now be solvable to helping save lives, you know,

998
00:51:09,840 --> 00:51:11,840
Speaker 1: can now be more of a response to people that

999
00:51:11,960 --> 00:51:15,719
Speaker 1: are now on site and on ground. Um, I feel

1000
00:51:15,719 --> 00:51:17,959
Speaker 1: like that could be a way, or you know, even

1001
00:51:18,040 --> 00:51:22,319
Speaker 1: just figuring out what the exact solution, what the exact

1002
00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:26,680
Speaker 1: problem of it was, and dialing more into that. I

1003
00:51:26,760 --> 00:51:28,360
Speaker 1: think you can kind of. I feel like there is

1004
00:51:28,400 --> 00:51:31,759
Speaker 1: a way. I just think it needs to be time

1005
00:51:31,840 --> 00:51:34,880
Speaker 1: spent on figuring that figuring that out. Have you been

1006
00:51:34,920 --> 00:51:37,840
Speaker 1: able to have any personal conversations with any of the

1007
00:51:37,880 --> 00:51:41,239
Speaker 1: families who lost levels? I was able to, Um, But

1008
00:51:41,640 --> 00:51:43,279
Speaker 1: you know, I just want to just respect that, you know,

1009
00:51:43,360 --> 00:51:47,440
Speaker 1: the privacy of the conversation. And I'm thankful for them

1010
00:51:47,600 --> 00:51:50,560
Speaker 1: for even allowing me to have the conversation. Yeah, how

1011
00:51:50,880 --> 00:51:53,520
Speaker 1: did you feel when some of the families rejected your

1012
00:51:53,560 --> 00:51:56,920
Speaker 1: offer to pay for the funerals? All things are understandable,

1013
00:51:57,320 --> 00:51:59,919
Speaker 1: and you know, at the time, they're grieving and they're

1014
00:52:00,160 --> 00:52:03,440
Speaker 1: trying to find understanding, and you know, they want answers,

1015
00:52:04,040 --> 00:52:07,399
Speaker 1: and it's not about it's not about that, you know. UM,

1016
00:52:07,640 --> 00:52:10,239
Speaker 1: I'm always gonna be here, you know, to want to

1017
00:52:10,320 --> 00:52:12,680
Speaker 1: help them, you know what I'm saying, And and it's

1018
00:52:12,760 --> 00:52:15,839
Speaker 1: it's not gonna you know, I gotta continue to show

1019
00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:17,920
Speaker 1: up for that, you know. UM, I just wanted to

1020
00:52:17,960 --> 00:52:21,000
Speaker 1: make sure that they knew that I was there for them,

1021
00:52:21,120 --> 00:52:22,359
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, and continue to be there

1022
00:52:22,400 --> 00:52:25,400
Speaker 1: for them. UM. I think that's just more so what

1023
00:52:25,520 --> 00:52:30,319
Speaker 1: it's about for that Um yeah, some people say, um,

1024
00:52:31,280 --> 00:52:33,360
Speaker 1: your your your music played a role in this, Like

1025
00:52:33,440 --> 00:52:36,320
Speaker 1: I've seen them, you know, cite lyrics, you know that

1026
00:52:36,520 --> 00:52:38,600
Speaker 1: encouraged just kind of behavior. I've seen him say your

1027
00:52:38,680 --> 00:52:42,920
Speaker 1: music is demonic and this was a satanic ritual. You

1028
00:52:43,840 --> 00:52:46,920
Speaker 1: think your music is to blame? I mean no, I'm

1029
00:52:47,120 --> 00:52:49,560
Speaker 1: I mean why, I'm a man of God. So that's

1030
00:52:49,600 --> 00:52:53,040
Speaker 1: the first thing first, and um, you know, so it's

1031
00:52:53,080 --> 00:52:58,440
Speaker 1: just yeah, that's that. And you know your music is

1032
00:52:58,480 --> 00:53:01,839
Speaker 1: just like self expression, you know I'm saying. And at

1033
00:53:01,880 --> 00:53:04,319
Speaker 1: these shows, I feel like people kind of like look

1034
00:53:04,400 --> 00:53:06,799
Speaker 1: at things. And if you've been the Travis Show, it's

1035
00:53:07,680 --> 00:53:10,239
Speaker 1: it's been different layers of shows. You know. I think

1036
00:53:10,280 --> 00:53:13,920
Speaker 1: people are just you know, misconceptions and taking these seeing

1037
00:53:14,000 --> 00:53:17,160
Speaker 1: and you know all type of things. You know. Um,

1038
00:53:18,040 --> 00:53:21,239
Speaker 1: and I've I've I've took pride in trying to you know,

1039
00:53:21,880 --> 00:53:24,439
Speaker 1: grow from where I was when I first recorded music

1040
00:53:24,520 --> 00:53:28,319
Speaker 1: to now where I'm going in music. Um So yeah,

1041
00:53:28,400 --> 00:53:31,040
Speaker 1: I just think people gotta and and that's one thing

1042
00:53:31,120 --> 00:53:34,080
Speaker 1: with me is just people gotta kind of you know,

1043
00:53:34,239 --> 00:53:36,520
Speaker 1: experience it sometimes. And I think that's what it was.

1044
00:53:36,680 --> 00:53:38,879
Speaker 1: You know, people were kind of like even before people

1045
00:53:38,920 --> 00:53:41,279
Speaker 1: were hearing about it, they come and experience it and

1046
00:53:41,400 --> 00:53:44,080
Speaker 1: taking away their own thing. And it's always going to

1047
00:53:44,120 --> 00:53:47,719
Speaker 1: be an outside opinion. But you know, for the ones

1048
00:53:47,760 --> 00:53:49,880
Speaker 1: that you know really believe in me and you know

1049

Speaker 1: understand what. You know, what I'm about and what I'm doing. No,

1050
00:53:52,800 --> 00:53:55,440
Speaker 1: that's not That's not what I'm you know, preaching. I

00:54:11,640 --> 00:54:13,600
Speaker 1: think that's a part of it. But the music does

1057
00:54:13,760 --> 00:54:17,279
Speaker 1: encourage people to be violent at these shows. I mean,

1058
00:54:17,600 --> 00:54:19,520
Speaker 1: I mean that's what the rage is about. I mean,

1059
00:54:20,760 --> 00:54:24,080
Speaker 1: most of the music is its me sometimes talking about

1060
00:54:24,120 --> 00:54:26,480
Speaker 1: what I see at the shows, you know what I mean.

1061
00:54:27,360 --> 00:54:29,040
Speaker 1: If I'm talking about the shows, you know, and so

1062
00:54:29,160 --> 00:54:32,279
Speaker 1: it's just that's just you know, the energy, you know

1063
00:54:32,280 --> 00:54:35,720
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. But the energy isn't to come and start,

1064
00:54:36,480 --> 00:54:39,680
Speaker 1: you know, being ultra violent and just being violent and

1065
00:54:39,840 --> 00:54:42,000
Speaker 1: hurting each other. That's not That's not what it's about,

1066
00:54:42,160 --> 00:54:44,719
Speaker 1: all right, that's part three of the conversation and one

1067
00:54:44,760 --> 00:54:47,560
Speaker 1: on one conversation with Charlemagne and Travis Scott and I

1068
00:54:47,600 --> 00:54:49,920
Speaker 1: don't move. We got more coming up. I usually we

1069
00:54:50,080 --> 00:54:53,040
Speaker 1: do rumors, but this is, uh, this is more important

1070
00:54:53,200 --> 00:54:57,360
Speaker 1: this morning, so don't move. It's the Breakfast clubal morning parting.

1071
00:54:57,440 --> 00:55:01,560
Speaker 1: Everybody is DJ Envy and Charlemagne the guy. We are

1072
00:55:01,640 --> 00:55:04,399
Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. Now if he's just joining us, where

1073
00:55:05,320 --> 00:55:08,920
Speaker 1: playing back Charlomagne's one on one conversation with Travis Scott. Yeah,

1074
00:55:09,000 --> 00:55:11,200
Speaker 1: we sat. I sat down with Travis Scott to you know,

1075
00:55:11,280 --> 00:55:13,759
Speaker 1: discuss the tragedy that happened on November fifth at after

1076
00:55:13,840 --> 00:55:17,200
Speaker 1: World in Houston, Texas. You know, clearly not the easy conversation,

1077
00:55:17,480 --> 00:55:19,520
Speaker 1: and you know he wants to discuss how he can

1078
00:55:19,920 --> 00:55:22,720
Speaker 1: help make sure this never happens again, which he doesn't

1079
00:55:22,719 --> 00:55:26,719
Speaker 1: even know what that looks like yet. But here's the conversation, right,

1080
00:55:26,800 --> 00:55:29,040
Speaker 1: and we'll take some calls after this. Eight hundred five

1081
00:55:29,120 --> 00:55:31,239
Speaker 1: eight five one five one. It's the Breakfast Club. His

1082
00:55:31,360 --> 00:55:33,440
Speaker 1: part four, you said you're a man of God. And

1083
00:55:33,440 --> 00:55:34,960
Speaker 1: when I even said that, you know they say your

1084
00:55:35,040 --> 00:55:36,960
Speaker 1: music in Satanic. I saw the face that you made.

1085
00:55:36,960 --> 00:55:38,439
Speaker 1: What do you what do you think that even comes

1086
00:55:38,480 --> 00:55:41,040
Speaker 1: from Travis Scott is Satan and Travis scottis. I just

1087
00:55:41,160 --> 00:55:43,600
Speaker 1: think it's just things people collect. You know, people look

1088
00:55:43,600 --> 00:55:45,400
Speaker 1: at the Internet and they just collect and they look

1089
00:55:45,440 --> 00:55:47,080
Speaker 1: at things, and they look at visuals, and you know,

1090
00:55:47,200 --> 00:55:50,040
Speaker 1: we have all these theorists and people just thinking they're

1091
00:55:50,040 --> 00:55:52,800
Speaker 1: looking at visuals don't understand you know, just the idea

1092
00:55:52,800 --> 00:55:55,239
Speaker 1: of like what art maybe, or what what you're trying

1093
00:55:55,280 --> 00:55:57,400
Speaker 1: to do. You know, they're just making up your own message,

1094
00:55:57,520 --> 00:55:59,560
Speaker 1: especially when you're not out there like yelling the message

1095
00:55:59,560 --> 00:56:03,960
Speaker 1: all the time. You know, it's just yeah, and when

1096
00:56:04,000 --> 00:56:06,960
Speaker 1: they say this is a community event after a world Yeah,

1097
00:56:07,120 --> 00:56:09,719
Speaker 1: so they say a community event is a Satanic ritual?

1098
00:56:09,800 --> 00:56:12,240
Speaker 1: How does that? Yeah, It's like it's it's it's crazy

1099
00:56:12,320 --> 00:56:14,399
Speaker 1: because you know, it's like I do this for people

1100
00:56:14,400 --> 00:56:15,959
Speaker 1: to have a good time. You know, we have rides,

1101
00:56:16,040 --> 00:56:18,440
Speaker 1: we have games. You know, it's things for people to

1102
00:56:18,480 --> 00:56:21,719
Speaker 1: get off, creative experiences. It's not you know, the show

1103
00:56:21,840 --> 00:56:23,279
Speaker 1: is at the end of the day. You know, it's

1104
00:56:23,360 --> 00:56:25,720
Speaker 1: like you know and that show is just something based

1105
00:56:25,760 --> 00:56:28,840
Speaker 1: on on what's you know, just the's things. You know,

1106
00:56:28,920 --> 00:56:31,560
Speaker 1: It's not like what like why would we wake up

1107
00:56:31,600 --> 00:56:33,520
Speaker 1: one day and just trying to It's just that's just evil.

1108
00:56:33,560 --> 00:56:35,440
Speaker 1: It's not what we are part of. Not trying to

1109
00:56:35,440 --> 00:56:36,400
Speaker 1: be a part of that. We're trying to be a

1110
00:56:36,440 --> 00:56:38,160
Speaker 1: part of joy, trying to be a part of light,

1111
00:56:38,200 --> 00:56:40,839
Speaker 1: and trying to be a part of full blown happiness, love,

1112
00:56:41,080 --> 00:56:44,600
Speaker 1: you know, understanding people taking care of each other, you know, community,

1113
00:56:44,680 --> 00:56:46,880
Speaker 1: people to leave from these experiences and want to go

1114
00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:50,480
Speaker 1: out and do good. It's literally what we want, you know,

1115
00:56:50,600 --> 00:56:53,040
Speaker 1: we want to show them these things. You know, we

1116
00:56:53,160 --> 00:56:55,080
Speaker 1: put everything into it. You know, this is you know,

1117
00:56:55,440 --> 00:56:57,320
Speaker 1: this festival. You know, this is our third year, you know,

1118
00:56:57,400 --> 00:56:59,920
Speaker 1: so we try to put you know, we every year

1119
00:57:00,200 --> 00:57:02,920
Speaker 1: we put everything into the festival so people can enjoy it.

1120
00:57:03,160 --> 00:57:06,840
Speaker 1: You know. It's not about even just come perform that

1121
00:57:07,040 --> 00:57:08,800
Speaker 1: not that, you know, it's things for them to do

1122
00:57:08,920 --> 00:57:12,400
Speaker 1: all day and different artists for them to experience too.

1123
00:57:13,440 --> 00:57:17,160
Speaker 1: Have the trauma of just tragedy impacted your desire to

1124
00:57:17,320 --> 00:57:23,040
Speaker 1: perform in the future. I've always seen performances of art

1125
00:57:23,080 --> 00:57:25,640
Speaker 1: of healing for me. That's why I've always been so

1126
00:57:25,800 --> 00:57:28,200
Speaker 1: into it. You know, I don't know if you like,

1127
00:57:28,800 --> 00:57:31,000
Speaker 1: you know, looked at like some of the growth from

1128
00:57:31,040 --> 00:57:33,160
Speaker 1: where I'm trying to take performance. I've I've always tried that.

1129
00:57:33,200 --> 00:57:34,680
Speaker 1: I feel like it's the art of healing. I feel

1130
00:57:34,680 --> 00:57:38,040
Speaker 1: like it's a moment where people have a mutual understanding,

1131
00:57:38,880 --> 00:57:41,640
Speaker 1: you know. And I feel like the first things first

1132
00:57:42,560 --> 00:57:45,880
Speaker 1: before anything is that we address you know, a lot

1133
00:57:45,920 --> 00:57:48,280
Speaker 1: of safety concerns. I think the first things first is

1134
00:57:48,320 --> 00:57:52,000
Speaker 1: that because not even just for me, you don't want

1135
00:57:52,040 --> 00:57:55,520
Speaker 1: other you know, artists to have to go and take

1136
00:57:55,560 --> 00:57:57,040
Speaker 1: a part of that trauma, to take a part of

1137
00:57:57,120 --> 00:58:00,160
Speaker 1: that experience, take a part of that, you know, over

1138
00:58:00,240 --> 00:58:02,240
Speaker 1: that fear. You don't want console girls to still be

1139
00:58:02,280 --> 00:58:03,600
Speaker 1: a part of that fear. They want you want, you

1140
00:58:03,640 --> 00:58:05,760
Speaker 1: want them to feel safe, you know what I'm saying.

1141
00:58:05,800 --> 00:58:07,680
Speaker 1: So I think that's just the first things first. And

1142
00:58:07,880 --> 00:58:11,920
Speaker 1: I think once we take major steps into moving in

1143
00:58:12,040 --> 00:58:14,040
Speaker 1: that direction, you know, I feel like, you know, it

1144
00:58:14,120 --> 00:58:18,040
Speaker 1: could be cool to for people to practice that healing again,

1145
00:58:18,240 --> 00:58:21,240
Speaker 1: you know, and understand that. I don't think people should

1146
00:58:21,320 --> 00:58:23,400
Speaker 1: run away from it and shy away from it. I think,

1147
00:58:23,960 --> 00:58:25,959
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's a it's a form of healing,

1148
00:58:26,080 --> 00:58:29,000
Speaker 1: you know. You know, no matter what you do at

1149
00:58:29,280 --> 00:58:31,560
Speaker 1: any of your shows in the future, regardless of how

1150
00:58:31,640 --> 00:58:34,440
Speaker 1: much security, how much safety you put in place, you

1151
00:58:34,480 --> 00:58:38,560
Speaker 1: cannot control human behavior. Yeah. Yeah, you can't control forty

1152
00:58:38,640 --> 00:58:42,240
Speaker 1: fifty thousand people doing whatever they do. Is that's scary?

1153
00:58:43,400 --> 00:58:46,000
Speaker 1: I mean yeah, but you know you also put trust

1154
00:58:46,040 --> 00:58:47,960
Speaker 1: in the fans too to you know, just have a

1155
00:58:48,000 --> 00:58:51,080
Speaker 1: good time. You know, you just reinstill that, and you

1156
00:58:51,160 --> 00:58:53,919
Speaker 1: know you continue to practice, you know, when you're on stage,

1157
00:58:54,000 --> 00:58:57,080
Speaker 1: should just remind them, you know, um, and even when

1158
00:58:57,120 --> 00:58:59,720
Speaker 1: they're there, to just constantly have messages to remind them like, yo,

1159
00:58:59,800 --> 00:59:01,960
Speaker 1: look if here to have a good time, we're not here.

1160
00:59:02,040 --> 00:59:05,560
Speaker 1: If you see somebody you know help another you know, um.

1161
00:59:05,760 --> 00:59:08,680
Speaker 1: I think it's just continue to reinstill that message. I

1162
00:59:08,800 --> 00:59:13,200
Speaker 1: think helped that mindset if Yeah, so after a world

1163
00:59:13,280 --> 00:59:15,080
Speaker 1: was one of you know, several ways you gave back

1164
00:59:15,120 --> 00:59:17,760
Speaker 1: to Houston, do you think you've you know, lost that

1165
00:59:17,880 --> 00:59:21,200
Speaker 1: privilege to do that. To be honest, I haven't really

1166
00:59:21,280 --> 00:59:23,040
Speaker 1: like thought about that because I've just been thinking about

1167
00:59:23,160 --> 00:59:27,000
Speaker 1: just community healing and you know, the family's healing and

1168
00:59:28,120 --> 00:59:30,120
Speaker 1: you know, all those things kind of building back up.

1169
00:59:30,640 --> 00:59:35,240
Speaker 1: Um that that could take forever. Though, you know, I

1170
00:59:35,240 --> 00:59:37,600
Speaker 1: don't know if you ever truly heal yeah, from these

1171
00:59:37,640 --> 00:59:41,680
Speaker 1: type of situations and you know, but you know, through

1172
00:59:41,760 --> 00:59:44,320
Speaker 1: these things, you know, like I say, music is part

1173
00:59:44,360 --> 00:59:48,080
Speaker 1: of healing. And at the end of the day, um,

1174
00:59:49,160 --> 00:59:51,880
Speaker 1: I don't I just don't, you know, the Travis Scott

1175
00:59:52,040 --> 00:59:56,120
Speaker 1: show or you know, an asture or show you know,

1176
00:59:57,160 --> 00:59:59,360
Speaker 1: wasn't the bottom line fact that what happened here, you know?

1177
01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:01,520
Speaker 1: And I think we just got to figure out what

1178
01:00:01,680 --> 01:00:05,160
Speaker 1: that was, what happened. But you know, having a Travis

1179
01:00:05,200 --> 01:00:08,840
Speaker 1: Scott show and we've done shows you know, all over

1180
01:00:09,040 --> 01:00:12,600
Speaker 1: that wasn't the you know, what happened here? You know,

1181
01:00:12,800 --> 01:00:14,920
Speaker 1: something that happened here, you know, And that's why I

1182
01:00:14,960 --> 01:00:17,520
Speaker 1: want to fix it, because it can happen anywhere, you

1183
01:00:17,560 --> 01:00:21,160
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. And I think once we get

1184
01:00:21,240 --> 01:00:23,960
Speaker 1: further along in that, I think, you know, you know,

1185
01:00:24,000 --> 01:00:26,040
Speaker 1: it'd be more a little bit more receptive. I feel,

1186
01:00:26,560 --> 01:00:28,680
Speaker 1: did they make you feel judged? When you see videos,

1187
01:00:29,280 --> 01:00:31,800
Speaker 1: you know, circulating the other artists stopping their shows like

1188
01:00:31,880 --> 01:00:34,920
Speaker 1: to check on fans since since after World because almost

1189
01:00:34,960 --> 01:00:38,160
Speaker 1: like the insinuation from other artists that like, you didn't

1190
01:00:38,160 --> 01:00:40,680
Speaker 1: do enough, So we don't want to be like driving

1191
01:00:41,040 --> 01:00:43,880
Speaker 1: I'll take it as you know, they're just taking extra precautions,

1192
01:00:44,440 --> 01:00:47,120
Speaker 1: you know, because it might not have been something that

1193
01:00:48,400 --> 01:00:51,600
Speaker 1: you know, let's running through their mind at time before,

1194
01:00:52,320 --> 01:00:56,600
Speaker 1: and they're just taking extra precautions to you know, make

1195
01:00:56,640 --> 01:01:00,520
Speaker 1: sure they don't run through the same same problems. And

1196
01:01:00,640 --> 01:01:02,960
Speaker 1: I could commend them for that. You know. I've always

1197
01:01:03,000 --> 01:01:05,800
Speaker 1: done the same thing, you know, in my prior shows

1198
01:01:05,880 --> 01:01:08,320
Speaker 1: and at their shows, So you know, I feel them,

1199
01:01:08,400 --> 01:01:10,280
Speaker 1: you know. I just think it's been a little bit

1200
01:01:10,360 --> 01:01:14,160
Speaker 1: more people are more capturing it now, like because of

1201
01:01:14,240 --> 01:01:16,400
Speaker 1: what's going on. I think that's just how the media works.

1202
01:01:17,040 --> 01:01:20,360
Speaker 1: If the families are the victims, never forgive you. Will

1203
01:01:20,400 --> 01:01:22,960
Speaker 1: you ever be able to forgive yourself? Can you live

1204
01:01:23,040 --> 01:01:30,120
Speaker 1: with that? No? It's tough, you know, it's real tough,

1205
01:01:31,160 --> 01:01:34,720
Speaker 1: m because I want them to really know that my

1206
01:01:34,840 --> 01:01:38,360
Speaker 1: intentions wasn't you know, it wasn't the harm their family

1207
01:01:38,400 --> 01:01:39,640
Speaker 1: at all. It's for them to come and have a

1208
01:01:39,680 --> 01:01:43,320
Speaker 1: good experience. Um. I've always feel like I have a

1209
01:01:43,360 --> 01:01:47,000
Speaker 1: connection with my fans, you know, through the music. I

1210
01:01:47,080 --> 01:01:48,600
Speaker 1: feel like when they come to see me, and it's

1211
01:01:48,640 --> 01:01:51,160
Speaker 1: not just like oh they're coming, they're coming in, it's

1212
01:01:51,160 --> 01:01:54,919
Speaker 1: like a connection. Um. And you know, sometimes not knowing

1213
01:01:55,160 --> 01:01:58,080
Speaker 1: you know, people not understanding like artists and where we

1214
01:01:58,160 --> 01:02:01,480
Speaker 1: come from that it could be the connect and you know,

1215
01:02:01,560 --> 01:02:03,720
Speaker 1: I would love to you know, instead of understanding and

1216
01:02:03,920 --> 01:02:05,920
Speaker 1: you know, for them to truly know my heart's from.

1217
01:02:06,080 --> 01:02:08,400
Speaker 1: You know, it didn't come for them for me to

1218
01:02:08,520 --> 01:02:12,040
Speaker 1: horror and it wasn't about a show to keep you

1219
01:02:12,120 --> 01:02:14,360
Speaker 1: know at all. You know, it's a you know, it's

1220
01:02:14,360 --> 01:02:16,840
Speaker 1: about for them to have you know, one of the

1221
01:02:17,000 --> 01:02:19,320
Speaker 1: you know, a very good time and it's just traged

1222
01:02:19,400 --> 01:02:22,400
Speaker 1: that it didn't turn out that way. You know. So

1223
01:02:22,480 --> 01:02:24,760
Speaker 1: I guess my final question, man, who do who? Who does?

1224
01:02:25,040 --> 01:02:28,080
Speaker 1: Who does Travis Scott? Ultimately, I guess think it is

1225
01:02:28,120 --> 01:02:37,720
Speaker 1: responsible for this tragedy. You know, something tragic happening here. Well,

1226
01:02:37,800 --> 01:02:40,320
Speaker 1: what I've just been trying to, you know, get to

1227
01:02:40,400 --> 01:02:43,200
Speaker 1: the bottom of it is just what happened here, how

1228
01:02:43,280 --> 01:02:45,760
Speaker 1: it happened here? And you know, I think the families

1229
01:02:45,760 --> 01:02:48,440
Speaker 1: are old, you know that I feel like, you know,

1230
01:02:48,640 --> 01:02:51,320
Speaker 1: the community is old that I feel like we're old

1231
01:02:51,360 --> 01:02:53,600
Speaker 1: that to just know what happened here. I don't want

1232
01:02:53,600 --> 01:02:55,240
Speaker 1: to just speak too soon. I just want to figure

1233
01:02:55,240 --> 01:02:57,800
Speaker 1: out what, you know, what happened. You know, you know

1234
01:02:57,840 --> 01:03:00,560
Speaker 1: they're going to pick this interview apart, So anything you

1235
01:03:00,640 --> 01:03:04,000
Speaker 1: want to say to your fans, to the family of

1236
01:03:04,080 --> 01:03:06,760
Speaker 1: people who lost loved ones, you know, before we get

1237
01:03:06,800 --> 01:03:08,520
Speaker 1: out of here. I mean, I just want to I

1238
01:03:08,600 --> 01:03:11,960
Speaker 1: want everyone and can just continue praying for the fans, Um.

1239
01:03:12,080 --> 01:03:14,040
Speaker 1: I want to continue. I want people to continue praying

1240
01:03:14,120 --> 01:03:16,680
Speaker 1: for the ones, the fans I was lost, you know.

1241
01:03:16,760 --> 01:03:20,080
Speaker 1: I want people to continue praying for the families. I

1242
01:03:20,200 --> 01:03:23,200
Speaker 1: want people to continue just reaching out for healing. I

1243
01:03:23,320 --> 01:03:26,320
Speaker 1: think the more we try to, you know, continue to

1244
01:03:26,400 --> 01:03:29,040
Speaker 1: let people grieve and continue to be there for people

1245
01:03:29,240 --> 01:03:33,000
Speaker 1: and you know, checking more people and you know, checking

1246
01:03:33,040 --> 01:03:36,120
Speaker 1: on your loved ones and just you know that, you know,

1247
01:03:36,160 --> 01:03:38,160
Speaker 1: I think that's just like one of the most important things.

1248
01:03:38,560 --> 01:03:42,120
Speaker 1: You know, UM, stand strong through this while we you know,

1249
01:03:42,920 --> 01:03:45,720
Speaker 1: figure out what's going on, you know, and and bring

1250
01:03:45,880 --> 01:03:48,720
Speaker 1: understanding to these families and to the communities. That's what

1251
01:03:48,720 --> 01:03:51,120
Speaker 1: we're gonna do. We're gonna send healing energy to everybody involved,

1252
01:03:51,320 --> 01:03:55,120
Speaker 1: the families, you know, those who were lost, yourself, because

1253
01:03:55,480 --> 01:03:58,920
Speaker 1: nobody wants tragedies like just appe not at all, So

1254
01:03:59,080 --> 01:04:00,800

Speaker 1: up on a dirt road in Monkst Corner, South Carolina.

1273
01:05:13,240 --> 01:05:15,520
Speaker 1: Mom was a Jehovah witness English teacher. My father was

Speaker 1: the selling narcotics. It is what it is, It was

1276
01:05:21,280 --> 01:05:23,160
Speaker 1: what it was. My mother kept a book in my face.

1277
01:05:23,240 --> 01:05:25,440
Speaker 1: I read everything from my book of Bible stories to

1278
01:05:25,560 --> 01:05:28,680
Speaker 1: all you there, God, it's me Margaret. Side note, Judy

1279
01:05:28,720 --> 01:05:31,600
Speaker 1: Bloom sent me and my oldest daughter an autograph copy

01:05:50,240 --> 01:05:52,760
Speaker 1: and I've been taking them, and I've been chanting, I must,

1287
01:05:52,840 --> 01:05:55,160
Speaker 1: I must, I must increase my thrust. I explained it

1288
01:05:55,200 --> 01:05:57,440
Speaker 1: on this week's Bring Idiot's podcast. Go listen. Now, what's

1289
01:05:57,520 --> 01:05:59,520
Speaker 1: my point here? My point here is that I come

1290
01:05:59,640 --> 01:06:02,600
Speaker 1: from the dirt all right, South Carolina, eight foot three

1291
01:06:02,640 --> 01:06:04,560
Speaker 1: all day. That is always in me. Therefore I would

1292
01:06:04,560 --> 01:06:07,200
Speaker 1: always love the ratchetness of life, even at forty two

1293
01:06:07,280 --> 01:06:10,080
Speaker 1: years old, married with three kids and a receding headline.

1294
01:06:10,240 --> 01:06:13,160
Speaker 1: I love ratchetness. I still do hood rat things with

1295
01:06:13,240 --> 01:06:15,440
Speaker 1: my friends. We just do it at our houses are

1296
01:06:15,520 --> 01:06:17,480
Speaker 1: on vacation when the kids go to sleep. But the

1297
01:06:17,520 --> 01:06:20,000
Speaker 1: reason I'm giving myself donkey of to day is because

1298
01:06:20,040 --> 01:06:24,120
Speaker 1: this morning, when I was here by myself, I was

1299
01:06:24,200 --> 01:06:28,320
Speaker 1: talking about the domestic terrorists that you know hit the capitol,

1300
01:06:28,400 --> 01:06:30,160
Speaker 1: you know, Vanilla isis And I was still on a

1301
01:06:30,360 --> 01:06:34,560
Speaker 1: high after listening to all these good country wrap tunes

1302
01:06:34,680 --> 01:06:37,960
Speaker 1: this morning on title, and I feel I feel stupid.

1303
01:06:38,000 --> 01:06:41,120
Speaker 1: Just listen to how I've been sounding this morning. I've

1304
01:06:41,160 --> 01:06:43,240
Speaker 1: talked my way out of enough home invasions to know

1305
01:06:43,840 --> 01:06:45,840
Speaker 1: when something is a setup. Okay. I don't even know

1306
01:06:46,320 --> 01:06:48,680
Speaker 1: who the trust in government anymore, but I know who

1307
01:06:49,440 --> 01:06:53,640
Speaker 1: I do trust, and that's no damn body, okay. Period.

1308
01:06:54,520 --> 01:06:56,360
Speaker 1: And for some reason I started to saying, that's on cryp.

1309
01:06:56,400 --> 01:06:57,600
Speaker 1: But I'm not a cript. I don't even know why

1310
01:06:57,600 --> 01:06:59,320
Speaker 1: the hell I would even say something like that. All right,

1311
01:06:59,360 --> 01:07:01,800
Speaker 1: truth all again. Out there, I'm driving in this morning,

1312
01:07:01,800 --> 01:07:03,920
Speaker 1: I heard you shout out all the gangs. Then I

1313
01:07:03,960 --> 01:07:05,360
Speaker 1: don't know why I said, I'm gonna be asking you,

1314
01:07:05,920 --> 01:07:07,280
Speaker 1: you know how I feel aboudy be talking like that's

1315
01:07:07,400 --> 01:07:08,680
Speaker 1: im crip, and I don't think about it like I

1316
01:07:08,720 --> 01:07:10,479
Speaker 1: ain't even know crip. Why am I saying I'm walking

1317
01:07:10,520 --> 01:07:12,880
Speaker 1: in blue dollar gangs though, Mellow, I don't know what's

1318
01:07:12,880 --> 01:07:19,360
Speaker 1: going on the Pallo. We held it down for the

1319
01:07:19,440 --> 01:07:23,800
Speaker 1: morning while everybody wasn't there. Man appreciate that it's about time.

1320
01:07:24,000 --> 01:07:25,800
Speaker 1: I don't know who died it made Ju six nine,

1321
01:07:25,800 --> 01:07:30,000
Speaker 1: but I don't know who died and made me six nineties.

1322
01:07:30,040 --> 01:07:32,960
Speaker 1: And Mellow, there's quite a three problems with all those statements.

1323
01:07:33,080 --> 01:07:34,840
Speaker 1: Number One, I don't gang bang, never having my life.

1324
01:07:34,880 --> 01:07:36,880
Speaker 1: I'm not a crip, not a blood either. I'm nothing.

1325
01:07:36,960 --> 01:07:38,919
Speaker 1: I'm a man who has therapy to day at three pm.

1326
01:07:39,080 --> 01:07:41,320
Speaker 1: I'm a man who is scared to order a protein

1327
01:07:41,360 --> 01:07:43,919
Speaker 1: shake from around the corner here and hearing Triedbecca's because

1328
01:07:43,920 --> 01:07:45,440
Speaker 1: I feel like they keep giving me whole milk and

1329
01:07:45,520 --> 01:07:47,360
Speaker 1: not owning milk, and I don't have time to spend.

1330
01:07:47,440 --> 01:07:49,920
Speaker 1: I was on the toilet today and I get dairy bumps.

1331
01:07:50,040 --> 01:07:52,120
Speaker 1: My point was saying all of this and the reason

1332
01:07:52,200 --> 01:07:54,160
Speaker 1: I'm giving myself donkey that this is because I just

1333
01:07:54,240 --> 01:07:57,280
Speaker 1: feel stupid and donkey today. It's all about giving people

1334
01:07:57,320 --> 01:07:59,280
Speaker 1: to credit they deserve for being stupid. If you read

1335
01:07:59,360 --> 01:08:01,880
Speaker 1: my first book, the New York Times best selling Black Privilege,

1336
01:08:01,880 --> 01:08:03,919
Speaker 1: and you know, one of my laws in my book

1337
01:08:04,080 --> 01:08:06,760
Speaker 1: was always give people to credit they deserve for being stupid,

1338
01:08:06,800 --> 01:08:09,200
Speaker 1: including yourself. And that's what I'm doing right now. The

1339
01:08:09,280 --> 01:08:11,760
Speaker 1: reason I feel stupid is because I was writing in

1340
01:08:11,840 --> 01:08:14,240
Speaker 1: the work this morning, listening to the New South playlists

1341
01:08:14,280 --> 01:08:16,120
Speaker 1: on the title bro. There's some records on there that

1342
01:08:16,240 --> 01:08:19,320
Speaker 1: make my inner child smile. I mean, there are records

1343
01:08:19,360 --> 01:08:22,360
Speaker 1: on there that make the hood in me happy. Okay,

1344
01:08:22,400 --> 01:08:24,320
Speaker 1: I'm from South Carolina, the eight four three eight or

1345
01:08:24,360 --> 01:08:26,080
Speaker 1: three eight six four. When you come from a certain environment,

1346
01:08:26,200 --> 01:08:28,439
Speaker 1: there is a certain energy that is always in you.

1347
01:08:28,520 --> 01:08:30,560
Speaker 1: And when you listen to certain music, certain music is

1348
01:08:30,640 --> 01:08:33,360
Speaker 1: so powerful and it would just have you feeling like

1349
01:08:33,960 --> 01:08:37,599
Speaker 1: you something you're not. Okay, that's what Pooh shicsty guard

1350
01:08:37,680 --> 01:08:41,439
Speaker 1: up did for me. Okay, that's play poosh shanty guard en.

1351
01:08:41,520 --> 01:08:42,639

01:09:32,320 --> 01:09:34,960

01:09:55,880 --> 01:09:58,040

Speaker 1: having on the youth. Because the influenced my grown ass

1414
01:11:56,640 --> 01:11:58,800

1415
01:11:59,040 --> 01:12:02,840
Speaker 1: he's the head of Instagram. Hi Adam. How do I

Speaker 1: say your last name? I don't want to mess it up, Sarissi, Adam,

1417
01:12:06,880 --> 01:12:09,760
Speaker 1: what's up? My gulco? Thanks for having men joining us.

1418
01:12:09,880 --> 01:12:12,400
Speaker 1: Tell people what that meets the head of Instagram, CEO

1419
01:12:12,479 --> 01:12:15,920
Speaker 1: of Instagram, What does that mean? It means that if

1420
01:12:15,960 --> 01:12:18,600
Speaker 1: something goes wrong on Instagram, it's on me, and if

1421
01:12:18,640 --> 01:12:20,920
Speaker 1: something goes right, it's probably on my team. But generally

1422
01:12:20,960 --> 01:12:23,599
Speaker 1: I spend as much my time as I can helping

1423
01:12:23,680 --> 01:12:25,920
Speaker 1: us think about where we're going, what we need to

1424
01:12:26,000 --> 01:12:27,760
Speaker 1: do better, what we need to double down on because

1425
01:12:27,760 --> 01:12:31,840
Speaker 1: it's going well, and building the team to help us

1426
01:12:31,880 --> 01:12:33,760
Speaker 1: get it done. Let's get to the nity gritty because

1427
01:12:33,760 --> 01:12:35,400
Speaker 1: I saw a lot of people on social media when

1428
01:12:35,400 --> 01:12:37,719
Speaker 1: you said you would coming here. They have questions, Please

1429
01:12:37,840 --> 01:12:41,559
Speaker 1: bring them. Let's discuss the election first, right because, as

1430
01:12:41,600 --> 01:12:44,080
Speaker 1: you know, there's a lot of fake news that was

1431
01:12:44,160 --> 01:12:46,120
Speaker 1: going around, and there were a lot of issues with

1432
01:12:46,200 --> 01:12:48,880
Speaker 1: Facebook with fake news. You know, how do you guys

1433
01:12:48,960 --> 01:12:52,200
Speaker 1: take responsibility for your platforms with COVID, with fake news

1434
01:12:52,280 --> 01:12:55,040
Speaker 1: and things like that happening, making sure that that information

1435
01:12:55,240 --> 01:12:59,439
Speaker 1: doesn't get spread out. Social media as a technology isn't

1436
01:12:59,680 --> 01:13:03,120
Speaker 1: good and it isn't bad. It just is. And social

1437
01:13:03,160 --> 01:13:06,599
Speaker 1: media specifically is a great amplifier in a lot of ways,

1438
01:13:06,640 --> 01:13:08,760
Speaker 1: and it can amplify good and it can amplify bad,

1439
01:13:09,240 --> 01:13:12,160
Speaker 1: and so it's our responsibility to do all we can

1440
01:13:12,240 --> 01:13:14,439
Speaker 1: to amplify the good and mitigate the bad. And you

1441
01:13:14,520 --> 01:13:18,240
Speaker 1: see both spread on the platform, right. You saw the

1442
01:13:18,479 --> 01:13:21,120
Speaker 1: Black Lives Matter movement spread on social media. You saw

1443
01:13:21,240 --> 01:13:23,320
Speaker 1: me too spread on social media. But you also see

1444
01:13:23,320 --> 01:13:26,479
Speaker 1: things like misinformation spread on social media. And so we

1445
01:13:26,680 --> 01:13:29,000
Speaker 1: try to figure out all the different things that we

1446
01:13:29,120 --> 01:13:33,240
Speaker 1: can do to identify problems and address them and then

1447
01:13:33,280 --> 01:13:35,320
Speaker 1: also rethink the core of what we do and how

1448
01:13:35,360 --> 01:13:39,080
Speaker 1: we do it to create better outcomes. And that work

1449
01:13:39,200 --> 01:13:41,680
Speaker 1: never ends. And so I mean you brought up a

1450
01:13:41,680 --> 01:13:44,920
Speaker 1: couple of different things there, but on misinformation specifically, what

1451
01:13:45,080 --> 01:13:48,080
Speaker 1: we do is we work with third party fact checkers,

1452
01:13:48,160 --> 01:13:49,840
Speaker 1: So people who do this for a living, who do

1453
01:13:49,920 --> 01:13:53,479
Speaker 1: this for publications, we give them access to what's shared

1454
01:13:53,479 --> 01:13:55,360
Speaker 1: on the platform, and they can dispute things. They can

1455
01:13:55,400 --> 01:13:58,240
Speaker 1: say that this isn't true and here's a link to why.

1456
01:13:58,920 --> 01:14:01,040
Speaker 1: And when that happens, we reduce the spread of that

1457
01:14:01,400 --> 01:14:03,479
Speaker 1: when we label things and we give people links to

1458
01:14:03,520 --> 01:14:06,160
Speaker 1: good information but we don't take it off the platform

1459
01:14:06,400 --> 01:14:09,280
Speaker 1: entirely unless there's a safety risk. So for things like

1460
01:14:09,439 --> 01:14:12,560
Speaker 1: COVID nineteen or vaccine related misinformation, we just stick it

1461
01:14:12,640 --> 01:14:15,040
Speaker 1: off the platform entirely. So at this point we spend

1462
01:14:15,400 --> 01:14:18,120
Speaker 1: billions of dollars a year and there are tens of

1463
01:14:18,200 --> 01:14:21,839
Speaker 1: thousands of people between the engineers, the reviewers, and everything

1464
01:14:21,920 --> 01:14:26,400
Speaker 1: else focused on safety. How liable should social media platforms

1465
01:14:26,479 --> 01:14:28,680
Speaker 1: be in regards to lawsuits, like if I want to

1466
01:14:28,720 --> 01:14:31,559
Speaker 1: sue somebody for sland our deformation, should I be able

1467
01:14:31,600 --> 01:14:35,439
Speaker 1: to name the social media platform? Yeah? So this is

1468
01:14:35,439 --> 01:14:38,640
Speaker 1: actually one of the big legal debates right now. Right

1469
01:14:38,680 --> 01:14:40,280
Speaker 1: and here in the US they talk a lot about

1470
01:14:40,320 --> 01:14:45,880
Speaker 1: Section to thirty, which gives technology platforms essentially no liability,

1471
01:14:45,960 --> 01:14:49,040
Speaker 1: but the people who post that content are liable in

1472
01:14:49,120 --> 01:14:51,040
Speaker 1: different countries around the world that that may not be

1473
01:14:51,120 --> 01:14:53,080
Speaker 1: the case. Actually it isn't the case. Yea. South Africa

1474
01:14:53,160 --> 01:14:55,599
Speaker 1: don't play. Yeah, no, a lot of Europe they don't play.

1475
01:14:56,120 --> 01:14:58,360
Speaker 1: And so the thing that I think is that it's

1476
01:14:58,400 --> 01:15:02,720
Speaker 1: important that company needs are held to account to take

1477
01:15:02,840 --> 01:15:05,680
Speaker 1: measures to keep people safe. But I don't think we

1478
01:15:05,720 --> 01:15:07,880
Speaker 1: can go all the way to have a social media

1479
01:15:07,920 --> 01:15:10,160
Speaker 1: platform be accountable for every single thing that is said

1480
01:15:10,200 --> 01:15:12,040
Speaker 1: on that platform by every person, because they're over a

1481
01:15:12,120 --> 01:15:16,040
Speaker 1: billion people on Instagram at this point, and there's there's

1482
01:15:16,080 --> 01:15:17,760
Speaker 1: no version of that where there aren't going to be

1483
01:15:18,840 --> 01:15:22,400
Speaker 1: people with problematic opinions, racists, et cetera are going to

1484
01:15:22,439 --> 01:15:23,640
Speaker 1: show up. I'm not going to check that at the

1485
01:15:23,720 --> 01:15:26,160
Speaker 1: door when they open up Instagram. But I do think

1486
01:15:26,200 --> 01:15:28,040
Speaker 1: that doesn't mean that we can just you know, wipe

1487
01:15:28,040 --> 01:15:30,960
Speaker 1: a hand. The question is where are we on that spectrum?

1488
01:15:31,120 --> 01:15:32,680
Speaker 1: What do you say to people that say that, you know,

1489
01:15:33,320 --> 01:15:36,559
Speaker 1: social media, Instagram per se, it's really affecting people's mental

1490
01:15:36,680 --> 01:15:40,280
Speaker 1: where people are are you know, thinking of committing suicide

1491
01:15:40,439 --> 01:15:44,080
Speaker 1: and you know, having problems in school and self esteem

1492
01:15:44,439 --> 01:15:46,960
Speaker 1: and all of those things due to that platform. So

1493
01:15:47,040 --> 01:15:48,960
Speaker 1: there's a range here, and I think they are all

1494
01:15:49,000 --> 01:15:52,240
Speaker 1: really important questions. There are problems that are really acute,

1495
01:15:52,320 --> 01:15:55,800
Speaker 1: right So if you are struggling with self injury or suicide,

1496
01:15:55,880 --> 01:15:58,280
Speaker 1: that is I mean, that's high stakes, that's really problematic.

1497
01:15:58,400 --> 01:16:00,320
Speaker 1: And we've done a lot of work in that area

1498
01:16:00,400 --> 01:16:03,360
Speaker 1: to try and be thoughtful about what we share, like

1499
01:16:03,520 --> 01:16:06,840
Speaker 1: getting people access to good information or to help. So,

1500
01:16:06,960 --> 01:16:09,560
Speaker 1: for instance, right now, if we think you are a

1501
01:16:09,680 --> 01:16:12,639
Speaker 1: risk to yourself, we will do it, will direct uture

1502
01:16:12,680 --> 01:16:15,400
Speaker 1: resources or even in some extreme cases resources to you.

1503
01:16:15,680 --> 01:16:17,160
Speaker 1: How do you report that? Right in the reason I'm

1504
01:16:17,320 --> 01:16:19,200
Speaker 1: stopping you there, Let's say you have a family member

1505
01:16:19,240 --> 01:16:22,880
Speaker 1: that goals and it's off doing some wild still a

1506
01:16:22,960 --> 01:16:25,800
Speaker 1: lot of times them themselves don't know that they're doing

1507
01:16:25,840 --> 01:16:27,920
Speaker 1: wild stuff, but a family member might. How does that

1508
01:16:28,000 --> 01:16:30,680
Speaker 1: family member report that to Instagram and say, Hey, my

1509
01:16:30,840 --> 01:16:32,800
Speaker 1: sisters doing this, or my aunt is doing this, or

1510
01:16:32,880 --> 01:16:35,360
Speaker 1: my brother is doing this. How does that work? So

1511
01:16:35,479 --> 01:16:39,240
Speaker 1: in every post, be a photo, video or anything else

1512
01:16:39,320 --> 01:16:41,960
Speaker 1: on Instagram, you can always report something. There's a little

1513
01:16:42,000 --> 01:16:43,760
Speaker 1: dot dot Do you really check it? Because sometimes I

1514
01:16:43,840 --> 01:16:46,280
Speaker 1: feel like it doesn't get checked because there's so many

1515
01:16:46,320 --> 01:16:48,479
Speaker 1: people that make fake MV pages. I feel like every

1516
01:16:48,560 --> 01:16:53,320
Speaker 1: day we've got room number, we definitely check it. But

1517
01:16:53,560 --> 01:16:57,639
Speaker 1: the challenge is the truth is the reports are actually

1518
01:16:57,840 --> 01:17:01,040
Speaker 1: mostly not of things that are problem. There's a ton

1519
01:17:01,120 --> 01:17:02,400
Speaker 1: of people who are like, I don't like the way

1520
01:17:02,400 --> 01:17:04,120
Speaker 1: I look in this photo, and I'm going to report it.

1521
01:17:04,280 --> 01:17:07,479
Speaker 1: Oh my god, Yeah, it's it's actually the vast Oh,

1522
01:17:08,000 --> 01:17:10,639
Speaker 1: it's the vast majority, which is imagine that, Yeah, which

1523
01:17:10,680 --> 01:17:13,320
Speaker 1: is why we can't rely only on the reports. We

1524
01:17:13,400 --> 01:17:16,040
Speaker 1: definitely check the reports. We prioritize them, right, So if

1525
01:17:16,360 --> 01:17:18,840
Speaker 1: someone's reporting someone's a risk to themselves, we're gonna look

1526
01:17:18,880 --> 01:17:22,479
Speaker 1: at that much faster than someone's reporting something as being nudity,

1527
01:17:22,520 --> 01:17:26,799
Speaker 1: for instance. But we have to also build technology ourselves

1528
01:17:26,880 --> 01:17:28,559
Speaker 1: to go out and try and identify things, because if

1529
01:17:28,600 --> 01:17:30,639
Speaker 1: someone's going to be a risk to themselves, that's where

1530
01:17:30,640 --> 01:17:32,960
Speaker 1: you're going live and you're talking about hurting yourself. We

1531
01:17:33,040 --> 01:17:35,240
Speaker 1: don't want to wait for someone to hopefully report that.

1532
01:17:35,840 --> 01:17:37,640
Speaker 1: By the way, we don't have a religious opinion on

1533
01:17:37,680 --> 01:17:39,759
Speaker 1: the female nipple. The reason why we don't allow nudaty

1534
01:17:39,800 --> 01:17:42,439
Speaker 1: on Instagram is because it is actually a safety issue

1535
01:17:42,520 --> 01:17:45,639
Speaker 1: because we can't verify age and we can't verify consent.

1536
01:17:46,080 --> 01:17:48,920
Speaker 1: I think social media sometimes protects biggest though, it protects

1537
01:17:48,960 --> 01:17:52,439
Speaker 1: biggest in regard to racism homophobia, because I've posted videos

1538
01:17:52,479 --> 01:17:55,560
Speaker 1: of like racists getting punched in the face right for

1539
01:17:55,680 --> 01:17:59,080
Speaker 1: blatantly being racist, and then Instagram we'll remove it. We

1540
01:17:59,200 --> 01:18:01,719
Speaker 1: definitely make mistake. We also take a lot of flak

1541
01:18:01,800 --> 01:18:03,400
Speaker 1: for letting people say a lot of crap that we

1542
01:18:03,400 --> 01:18:07,000
Speaker 1: don't necessarily agree with in general, we're gonna try and

1543
01:18:07,640 --> 01:18:10,160
Speaker 1: bias towards letting people say what they want on the platform,

1544
01:18:10,439 --> 01:18:13,400
Speaker 1: and we try to only take content down when there's

1545
01:18:13,400 --> 01:18:16,720
Speaker 1: a safety risk. Should the FCC regulate social media like

1546
01:18:16,840 --> 01:18:20,080
Speaker 1: they do radio and TV? They can, and they should.

1547
01:18:20,200 --> 01:18:23,400
Speaker 1: I think regulation is important. I think that social media

1548
01:18:24,120 --> 01:18:27,280
Speaker 1: is too big to not have governments have an opinion

1549
01:18:27,360 --> 01:18:30,160
Speaker 1: about what should and should not be. Okay. Now, the

1550
01:18:30,280 --> 01:18:33,599
Speaker 1: type of regulation, though, is particularly important. Some regulation could

1551
01:18:33,600 --> 01:18:37,160
Speaker 1: be really helpful, particularly clarifying what is and what is

1552
01:18:37,240 --> 01:18:39,160
Speaker 1: not you know, a certain problem out of content type.

1553
01:18:39,200 --> 01:18:42,400
Speaker 1: So for instance, we have a hate speech policy. Hate

1554
01:18:42,439 --> 01:18:45,960
Speaker 1: speech protects people based on nine different types of traits,

1555
01:18:46,000 --> 01:18:48,479
Speaker 1: so you know, race, gender, religion, the things you would expect.

1556
01:18:48,760 --> 01:18:51,120
Speaker 1: That's our definition. But you have to be careful because

1557
01:18:51,160 --> 01:18:54,360
Speaker 1: if you get too aggressive with regulation, or you write

1558
01:18:54,400 --> 01:18:57,560
Speaker 1: regulation in certain ways, you might incentivize social platforms to

1559
01:18:57,640 --> 01:18:59,360
Speaker 1: censor more. Right, if you're going to find them a

1560
01:18:59,400 --> 01:19:01,599
Speaker 1: big amount every time they make a mistake and that's

1561
01:19:01,640 --> 01:19:03,600
Speaker 1: something up, they're going to take down more because this

1562
01:19:03,680 --> 01:19:06,120
Speaker 1: is their financial interest to do so. Now, another question

1563
01:19:06,160 --> 01:19:08,000
Speaker 1: I have. You were talking about wanting to make sure

1564
01:19:08,040 --> 01:19:09,439
Speaker 1: I saw you said that you wanted to make sure

1565
01:19:09,439 --> 01:19:12,800
Speaker 1: that creatives actually start making more money on Instagram, and

1566
01:19:12,880 --> 01:19:14,800
Speaker 1: I know they have like the tips that you can

1567
01:19:14,880 --> 01:19:16,960
Speaker 1: do on YouTube and things like that. Yeah, what are

1568
01:19:17,040 --> 01:19:19,599
Speaker 1: some ways that you guys? I see the Instagram ads

1569
01:19:19,640 --> 01:19:21,840
Speaker 1: you can also sign up for, which I'm not one

1570
01:19:21,880 --> 01:19:23,360
Speaker 1: hundred percent share what that is. So if you want

1571
01:19:23,360 --> 01:19:26,640
Speaker 1: to explain how people can make money on Instagram, and

1572
01:19:26,720 --> 01:19:29,439
Speaker 1: there's a range of ways we can help creators make

1573
01:19:29,479 --> 01:19:34,000
Speaker 1: a living. Largely they fall into three categories. The first

1574
01:19:34,840 --> 01:19:38,200
Speaker 1: is essentially commerce, So you can do branded content, right,

1575
01:19:38,240 --> 01:19:41,040
Speaker 1: so you get paid by a brand off of Instagram

1576
01:19:41,160 --> 01:19:42,680
Speaker 1: or off of Facebook, and then you do a deal

1577
01:19:42,760 --> 01:19:45,120
Speaker 1: and your post on Instagram to promote whatever that is.

1578
01:19:45,479 --> 01:19:47,559
Speaker 1: But then we also need to do things that allow

1579
01:19:47,760 --> 01:19:52,080
Speaker 1: people to pay the creators that they love directly, right,

1580
01:19:52,160 --> 01:19:56,240
Speaker 1: So we're interested in things like tipping. So we've got

1581
01:19:56,360 --> 01:19:58,719
Speaker 1: badges for instance, when you go live right now exploring

1582
01:19:58,720 --> 01:20:01,840
Speaker 1: if we can support subscripe. Maybe you could have a

1583
01:20:01,920 --> 01:20:03,559
Speaker 1: group of people who pay you five bucks a month

1584
01:20:03,600 --> 01:20:05,920
Speaker 1: and you get them exclusive content that only they get,

1585
01:20:06,000 --> 01:20:08,240
Speaker 1: and you can do that right through Instagram. It's almost

1586
01:20:08,240 --> 01:20:09,880
Speaker 1: like the only fans type of thing where you can

1587
01:20:09,920 --> 01:20:12,519
Speaker 1: have a subscription, but now the stuff that they subscribe to,

1588
01:20:12,680 --> 01:20:14,519
Speaker 1: can you put whatever you want up there now? Because

1589
01:20:14,560 --> 01:20:16,639
Speaker 1: you know who your subscribers are, right, you know their age.

1590
01:20:16,840 --> 01:20:18,439
Speaker 1: It's almost like you could take that now, you can

1591
01:20:18,479 --> 01:20:21,280
Speaker 1: show a nipple, you know, because you know who your

1592
01:20:21,280 --> 01:20:23,679
Speaker 1: subscribers are. All right, yes and no, So if there's

1593
01:20:23,680 --> 01:20:25,320
Speaker 1: a safety issue, we're still going to have to take

1594
01:20:25,360 --> 01:20:27,960
Speaker 1: it down. But I mean, for instance, we do do

1595
01:20:28,160 --> 01:20:30,479
Speaker 1: age gating for certain types of content, so things like

1596
01:20:30,760 --> 01:20:33,600
Speaker 1: today tobacco, that kind of thing. So we could we

1597
01:20:33,640 --> 01:20:35,800
Speaker 1: could we could explore that we haven't actually talked about

1598
01:20:35,800 --> 01:20:40,200
Speaker 1: that morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela yee shall I

1599
01:20:40,280 --> 01:20:42,120
Speaker 1: mean the guy we are the Breakfast Club was still

1600
01:20:42,160 --> 01:20:44,640
Speaker 1: kicking in with Adam Mosseri, the head of Instagram. Is

1601
01:20:44,680 --> 01:20:45,880
Speaker 1: it a trick to it? Though? You know, at a

1602
01:20:45,880 --> 01:20:47,160
Speaker 1: lot of people are like, hey, it's a trick when

1603
01:20:47,160 --> 01:20:48,960
Speaker 1: I post my videos because sometimes I post a video

1604
01:20:49,040 --> 01:20:50,519
Speaker 1: or picture and I get this amount of likes, and

1605
01:20:50,520 --> 01:20:52,560
Speaker 1: then sometimes it's on this page and I get this

1606
01:20:52,600 --> 01:20:54,320
Speaker 1: amount of likes. Yeah, like, you know, was a trick

1607
01:20:54,360 --> 01:20:56,080
Speaker 1: to maybe. I'm like, I'm not giving up my tricks.

1608
01:20:58,560 --> 01:21:01,320
Speaker 1: I would I'm trying to figure too. I've got an account,

1609
01:21:01,320 --> 01:21:04,240
Speaker 1: I'm trying to build up my following. The unfortunate truth

1610
01:21:04,360 --> 01:21:07,920
Speaker 1: is there's no perfect answer, and it's the million dollar question.

1611
01:21:08,400 --> 01:21:10,400
Speaker 1: There are a couple of things I'd say. One is

1612
01:21:10,520 --> 01:21:14,240
Speaker 1: it's important to first when you're using whether it's Instagram

1613
01:21:14,360 --> 01:21:17,360
Speaker 1: or any other social media platform, to be intentional about

1614
01:21:17,400 --> 01:21:20,559
Speaker 1: what you're using it for. Are using it to promote

1615
01:21:20,600 --> 01:21:22,680
Speaker 1: a cause that you believe, and are using it as

1616
01:21:22,720 --> 01:21:25,680
Speaker 1: a business directly, are using it to just build up

1617
01:21:25,720 --> 01:21:28,120
Speaker 1: awareness of your business, and you make your money elsewhere.

1618
01:21:28,400 --> 01:21:30,639
Speaker 1: The other thing to be honest about is that every

1619
01:21:30,680 --> 01:21:32,880
Speaker 1: audience is different, right, So what's going to work best

1620
01:21:32,960 --> 01:21:35,760
Speaker 1: for your followers isn't necessarily probably not going to work

1621
01:21:35,760 --> 01:21:38,560
Speaker 1: with what's best for my followers. So you and I

1622
01:21:38,680 --> 01:21:41,720
Speaker 1: both have to experiment. We've got to try things, see

1623
01:21:41,760 --> 01:21:44,479
Speaker 1: what works, see what doesn't. But there are other things

1624
01:21:44,560 --> 01:21:46,479
Speaker 1: that are more broadly true. So I do think it's

1625
01:21:46,520 --> 01:21:49,360
Speaker 1: generally true to give people a good sense of what

1626
01:21:49,600 --> 01:21:51,479
Speaker 1: you're about and what you do. So I try to

1627
01:21:51,560 --> 01:21:53,600
Speaker 1: build up these sort of patterns. So I do a

1628
01:21:53,760 --> 01:21:56,000
Speaker 1: video every week where I talk about what's happening on Instagram.

1629
01:21:56,360 --> 01:22:00,000
Speaker 1: Video also this seems to be a lot of interest

1630
01:22:00,200 --> 01:22:02,960
Speaker 1: across the entire world and always consuming more videos. So

1631
01:22:03,040 --> 01:22:05,000
Speaker 1: some of those basics are more universal, but a lot

1632
01:22:05,080 --> 01:22:07,960
Speaker 1: of it is more nuanced. Unfortunately, what is Instagram learning

1633
01:22:08,040 --> 01:22:11,240
Speaker 1: from the black creators on TikTok so the black strike

1634
01:22:11,320 --> 01:22:13,479
Speaker 1: on TikTok, Black credit struck on TikTok, I think is

1635
01:22:13,560 --> 01:22:17,960
Speaker 1: mostly about credit right too often Black creators will create

1636
01:22:18,040 --> 01:22:20,400
Speaker 1: amazing things and not creat credit for it, and someone else,

1637
01:22:20,720 --> 01:22:23,800
Speaker 1: often not black, who will reap all the benefits. But

1638
01:22:23,880 --> 01:22:25,679
Speaker 1: we're trying to understand not just that, but the broader

1639
01:22:25,720 --> 01:22:27,439
Speaker 1: set of issues and the big set of issues that

1640
01:22:27,520 --> 01:22:29,800
Speaker 1: we've heard from the black community here in the States

1641
01:22:29,840 --> 01:22:32,120
Speaker 1: and over the last year and a half are things

1642
01:22:32,240 --> 01:22:37,080
Speaker 1: around censorship, shadow banning, racism on the platform, having your

1643
01:22:37,120 --> 01:22:40,080
Speaker 1: content taken down when you fight back against the bigot

1644
01:22:40,240 --> 01:22:42,759
Speaker 1: or a racist. And so we feel like the credit

1645
01:22:43,120 --> 01:22:45,400
Speaker 1: stuff that TikTok is dealing with is important and we're

1646
01:22:45,439 --> 01:22:47,800
Speaker 1: looking we're working on that, but we really got to

1647
01:22:47,960 --> 01:22:50,680
Speaker 1: first do better on the basics because we don't really

1648
01:22:50,760 --> 01:22:52,479
Speaker 1: even have a right to play in like the creator

1649
01:22:52,640 --> 01:22:55,840
Speaker 1: monetization space unless we can get better on the issues

1650
01:22:55,880 --> 01:23:00,639
Speaker 1: around content takedowns, account suspensions like little Boosey. Yeah, okay,

1651
01:23:02,560 --> 01:23:04,280
Speaker 1: you know, little Boozy gonna stop calling you out now

1652
01:23:04,320 --> 01:23:09,160
Speaker 1: he's been saying you know who. Now surprise, I'm surprised

1653
01:23:09,160 --> 01:23:10,840
Speaker 1: he hasn't sit them in my DM. You know now.

1654
01:23:11,080 --> 01:23:15,960
Speaker 1: Adam was sorry, you guy right here. I can't wait

1655
01:23:16,000 --> 01:23:20,519
Speaker 1: to see him later on. Adam Moossary, Adam Mossary. It's

1656
01:23:20,600 --> 01:23:26,360
Speaker 1: Mossi with seven essays. Now what about limiting screen? No no,

1657
01:23:26,439 --> 01:23:29,200
Speaker 1: why doesn't Boozy keep getting taken down? We gotta drug

1658
01:23:29,280 --> 01:23:31,960
Speaker 1: the line somewhere and it's it's a nudity policy. We

1659
01:23:32,040 --> 01:23:34,200
Speaker 1: try to be clear. You can appeal, but if you

1660
01:23:34,280 --> 01:23:37,439
Speaker 1: get too many strikes to think you know what's nudity?

1661
01:23:37,560 --> 01:23:41,320
Speaker 1: Because I flagged Kim Kardashi in ten thousand times. Remember

1662
01:23:41,320 --> 01:23:44,000
Speaker 1: when Kim posted a picture Why would you do it?

1663
01:23:44,160 --> 01:23:46,519
Speaker 1: Because they don't take cut down, but they take everybody

1664
01:23:46,560 --> 01:23:48,320
Speaker 1: out there. So I flagged it. If she posts a

1665
01:23:48,320 --> 01:23:51,000
Speaker 1: picture of nipples getting taken down. If the guy, no, guy,

1666
01:23:51,600 --> 01:23:53,840
Speaker 1: this is one. This is one of my man. Nipples

1667
01:23:53,880 --> 01:23:56,800
Speaker 1: are allowed, so I should be clear one of one

1668
01:23:56,880 --> 01:23:59,600
Speaker 1: of one of my favorite tricks that people who are

1669
01:23:59,680 --> 01:24:03,639
Speaker 1: sort of nudity advocates talk about One of my favorite

1670
01:24:03,680 --> 01:24:07,400
Speaker 1: tricks that they do is they'll take a mail nipple,

1671
01:24:08,040 --> 01:24:10,560
Speaker 1: cut it out, and paste the mail nipple on a

1672
01:24:10,840 --> 01:24:14,320
Speaker 1: female's breast and post that just to test our policies.

1673
01:24:16,320 --> 01:24:18,240
Speaker 1: If we figure it out, that's allowed. You know, This

1674
01:24:18,400 --> 01:24:20,559
Speaker 1: is what it means to be a platform with as

1675
01:24:20,640 --> 01:24:22,200
Speaker 1: much reach as we have, is you're gonna have people

1676
01:24:22,240 --> 01:24:24,320
Speaker 1: try to push you and figure things out. Does Instagram

1677
01:24:24,439 --> 01:24:26,360
Speaker 1: understanding cult it all? Right? Because you have people like

1678
01:24:26,560 --> 01:24:29,479
Speaker 1: little Duvall Little Booty whose page always get taken down,

1679
01:24:29,720 --> 01:24:31,760
Speaker 1: and it could be for doing things like using the

1680
01:24:31,960 --> 01:24:34,559
Speaker 1: N word, but they're using it in like the context

1681
01:24:34,600 --> 01:24:36,880
Speaker 1: of that's my N word, but it'll get taken down

1682
01:24:36,920 --> 01:24:40,479
Speaker 1: for like racial slurs really like yeah, yeah. So it's

1683
01:24:40,560 --> 01:24:43,680
Speaker 1: tough because no, we don't understand culture perfectly at all,

1684
01:24:44,400 --> 01:24:47,680
Speaker 1: just super clear, you can't at our scale. And so

1685
01:24:47,800 --> 01:24:49,880
Speaker 1: there are things where we just have to draw the

1686
01:24:49,960 --> 01:24:53,479
Speaker 1: line or define a rule that is practical for us

1687
01:24:53,520 --> 01:24:55,840
Speaker 1: to actually enforce, because the perfect rule is going to

1688
01:24:55,920 --> 01:24:59,560
Speaker 1: be nuanced, but the perfect rule we cannot enforce accurately

1689
01:24:59,600 --> 01:25:02,719
Speaker 1: and consider certainly tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, millions

1690
01:25:02,760 --> 01:25:05,479
Speaker 1: of times a day or whatever it is. And so yeah,

1691
01:25:05,560 --> 01:25:08,000
Speaker 1: there are certain racial slurs that you cannot say on Instagram,

1692
01:25:08,439 --> 01:25:13,080
Speaker 1: regardless of how you identify. Now, that's just because we

1693
01:25:13,240 --> 01:25:14,920
Speaker 1: don't think we would be able to get it right

1694
01:25:15,160 --> 01:25:17,200
Speaker 1: enough of the time. We would make too many mistakes otherwise,

1695
01:25:17,240 --> 01:25:19,000
Speaker 1: and it's better for us to be transparent about the

1696
01:25:19,120 --> 01:25:21,680
Speaker 1: rule and then be able to act accordingly. And you

1697
01:25:21,720 --> 01:25:24,120
Speaker 1: can make your own decision. What about limiting screen time

1698
01:25:24,160 --> 01:25:26,400
Speaker 1: because I know that was a discussion that people have.

1699
01:25:26,560 --> 01:25:28,200
Speaker 1: You know, your phone will tell you how long you've

1700
01:25:28,240 --> 01:25:30,560
Speaker 1: been on all of these apps. Is that something in

1701
01:25:30,720 --> 01:25:33,639
Speaker 1: Instagram that people are concerned about? Like? Are you concerned

1702
01:25:33,640 --> 01:25:36,840
Speaker 1: about that people being addicted and constantly on their phone?

1703
01:25:37,320 --> 01:25:39,519
Speaker 1: I mean, for me, it's everything in moderation. But I

1704
01:25:39,560 --> 01:25:42,080
Speaker 1: also want to be clear there's a difference between like addiction,

1705
01:25:42,240 --> 01:25:44,599
Speaker 1: which is a compulsion to do something that is unhealthy

1706
01:25:44,640 --> 01:25:47,519
Speaker 1: for you that you cannot stop, and just problematic use

1707
01:25:47,640 --> 01:25:50,360
Speaker 1: or overuse people that are addicted to social media, though

1708
01:25:50,600 --> 01:25:52,800
Speaker 1: some are and some just use it too much. And

1709
01:25:52,880 --> 01:25:54,960
Speaker 1: so what we try to do is decide for the difference.

1710
01:25:55,000 --> 01:25:57,040
Speaker 1: So if you're in a really problematic state, how can

1711
01:25:57,120 --> 01:25:58,720
Speaker 1: we intervene? How can we let you know how much

1712
01:25:58,760 --> 01:26:01,840
Speaker 1: time you're spending, etc. But if you're just using it

1713
01:26:01,920 --> 01:26:03,960
Speaker 1: a lot, the things that we need to do might

1714
01:26:04,000 --> 01:26:06,719
Speaker 1: be different. Replace what you say with cocaine, some people

1715
01:26:06,720 --> 01:26:08,559
Speaker 1: aren't addictive, but some people just use it too much.

1716
01:26:08,760 --> 01:26:10,719
Speaker 1: I don't know if I can talk about that same

1717
01:26:10,840 --> 01:26:13,479
Speaker 1: thing with the same thing, because if you're using it

1718
01:26:13,520 --> 01:26:16,920
Speaker 1: too much, you clearly have like a draw to it

1719
01:26:17,000 --> 01:26:19,360
Speaker 1: that you can't control. Right, But I think cocaine is

1720
01:26:19,360 --> 01:26:22,920
Speaker 1: a drug, and a drug has serious medical, you know, implications.

1721
01:26:22,960 --> 01:26:25,080
Speaker 1: I think social media will in the future, I don't.

1722
01:26:25,120 --> 01:26:29,000
Speaker 1: I think psychologically, emotionally, mentally, we do not. Even we're

1723
01:26:29,000 --> 01:26:31,719
Speaker 1: not even scratching the surface of social media is impact

1724
01:26:31,720 --> 01:26:33,479
Speaker 1: people in the future, I think that's reasonable. But I

1725
01:26:33,560 --> 01:26:35,720
Speaker 1: also think that every new technology is first met with

1726
01:26:35,800 --> 01:26:38,160
Speaker 1: a wave of optimism. People are really excited about what

1727
01:26:38,240 --> 01:26:41,320
Speaker 1: it can do, then a huge wave of concern, and

1728
01:26:41,439 --> 01:26:43,680
Speaker 1: then ideally you get to some sort of balance, and

1729
01:26:43,960 --> 01:26:46,479
Speaker 1: by the way, as you get through it, the media

1730
01:26:46,560 --> 01:26:50,320
Speaker 1: itself or the technology itself gets better. I think social

1731
01:26:50,360 --> 01:26:52,880
Speaker 1: media is a technology that's just said earlier in that phase.

1732
01:26:53,000 --> 01:26:55,759
Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm sure use of social media can affect

1733
01:26:56,040 --> 01:26:59,280
Speaker 1: your health. Like because communicating with anyone can affect your health,

1734
01:26:59,320 --> 01:27:01,280
Speaker 1: and social media is just a way to connect. Let's

1735
01:27:01,280 --> 01:27:03,000
Speaker 1: talk about that because I feel like social media is

1736
01:27:03,040 --> 01:27:06,320
Speaker 1: changing human behavior in real life, is making people's collective

1737
01:27:06,360 --> 01:27:08,800
Speaker 1: attention spans decrease, is making people in secure. I think

1738
01:27:08,800 --> 01:27:12,120
Speaker 1: it's fueling narcissism. So how do you make it a

1739
01:27:12,320 --> 01:27:17,160
Speaker 1: more mentally healthy environment? I think that there's really three

1740
01:27:17,240 --> 01:27:19,640
Speaker 1: types of work I personally think we have to do.

1741
01:27:20,080 --> 01:27:22,720
Speaker 1: The first is to identify acute issues. You know, if

1742
01:27:22,760 --> 01:27:25,840
Speaker 1: people who are at risk of self injury are becoming

1743
01:27:25,920 --> 01:27:28,560
Speaker 1: more at risk, how do we address that. How do

1744
01:27:28,640 --> 01:27:31,680
Speaker 1: we make sure that they can still do what a

1745
01:27:31,720 --> 01:27:34,000
Speaker 1: lot of people who are struggling with self injury deal

1746
01:27:34,120 --> 01:27:37,040
Speaker 1: on social media, which is get support, get help. It's

1747
01:27:37,080 --> 01:27:39,280
Speaker 1: important to talk about your experience. Maybe you're you know,

1748
01:27:39,720 --> 01:27:41,880
Speaker 1: your thirty days clean and you want to celebrate that.

1749
01:27:42,320 --> 01:27:44,439
Speaker 1: How do we allow that content on Instagram without content

1750
01:27:44,479 --> 01:27:48,400
Speaker 1: that celebrates self injury? So, you know, identify qute issues,

1751
01:27:48,720 --> 01:27:52,519
Speaker 1: Identify solutions that work never ends, keep working there. Then

1752
01:27:52,560 --> 01:27:54,360
Speaker 1: I think we need to identify areas where we can

1753
01:27:54,439 --> 01:27:56,920
Speaker 1: go further, where we can be innovative, where we can

1754
01:27:57,000 --> 01:27:59,160
Speaker 1: define new ways of addressing the issues. Like one of

1755
01:27:59,200 --> 01:28:01,000
Speaker 1: the ones that we're been focused on for about two

1756
01:28:01,080 --> 01:28:03,040
Speaker 1: years now, I was bullying, And so then what can

1757
01:28:03,080 --> 01:28:05,080
Speaker 1: we do there? And there were trying to invent new things,

1758
01:28:05,240 --> 01:28:08,639
Speaker 1: things like restricts. Right, restrict allows you to block someone

1759
01:28:08,680 --> 01:28:11,560
Speaker 1: without you knowing about it. That's my favorite thing to

1760
01:28:11,600 --> 01:28:14,000
Speaker 1: do because they're still posting, but they don't know that

1761
01:28:14,120 --> 01:28:15,840
Speaker 1: no one can see it about them. Yeah, and so

1762
01:28:16,040 --> 01:28:18,280
Speaker 1: that was from our work on bullying. But then the

1763
01:28:18,439 --> 01:28:21,599
Speaker 1: third area is what are the core things about how

1764
01:28:22,400 --> 01:28:25,040
Speaker 1: Instagram works or social media works that we need to rethink.

1765
01:28:25,280 --> 01:28:27,800
Speaker 1: That's why we experimented with and made it so that

1766
01:28:27,840 --> 01:28:29,719
Speaker 1: people could pick to have light counts to be private.

1767
01:28:29,760 --> 01:28:32,200
Speaker 1: For instance, are there core things that we need to

1768
01:28:32,280 --> 01:28:35,680
Speaker 1: rethink because they are creating too much bad or too

1769
01:28:35,760 --> 01:28:38,360
Speaker 1: many problems and not enough good. What about taking away likes?

1770
01:28:38,400 --> 01:28:42,160
Speaker 1: I remember that was a flirtatious idea. Yeah, so the

1771
01:28:42,240 --> 01:28:44,640
Speaker 1: idea is to allow you to well, originally was to

1772
01:28:44,760 --> 01:28:47,240
Speaker 1: hide light counts so you could still like things, but

1773
01:28:47,439 --> 01:28:50,120
Speaker 1: it would be less of a popularity contest, but you

1774
01:28:50,200 --> 01:28:53,080
Speaker 1: could see it but not everybody else. Yes, it turned

1775
01:28:53,080 --> 01:28:56,320
Speaker 1: out to be really polarizing. It didn't seem to change

1776
01:28:56,400 --> 01:28:59,080
Speaker 1: much about how people felt about Instagram. We tried to

1777
01:28:59,080 --> 01:29:00,840
Speaker 1: see if it changed people well being. We try to

1778
01:29:00,920 --> 01:29:04,559
Speaker 1: measure well being your question by asking people sending These

1779
01:29:04,600 --> 01:29:09,479
Speaker 1: are surveys. So essentially we work with academics, professionals, experts

1780
01:29:09,520 --> 01:29:12,960
Speaker 1: outside of the company who have defined all sorts of

1781
01:29:13,040 --> 01:29:15,280
Speaker 1: ways of measuring well being. So what they did is

1782
01:29:15,320 --> 01:29:19,120
Speaker 1: they designed a set of questions that whose answers correlate.

1783
01:29:19,280 --> 01:29:21,439
Speaker 1: So if you if you say you have a support network,

1784
01:29:21,479 --> 01:29:23,719
Speaker 1: if you say you are not lonely, these things correlate

1785
01:29:23,760 --> 01:29:26,600
Speaker 1: with real world wellbeing outcomes over the long run. And

1786
01:29:26,680 --> 01:29:28,439
Speaker 1: so then we try to run surveys on Instagram and

1787
01:29:28,439 --> 01:29:30,320
Speaker 1: ask people those same questions, and we try to see

1788
01:29:30,600 --> 01:29:33,000
Speaker 1: for things like hiding lightcounts that change how people answer

1789
01:29:33,040 --> 01:29:35,800
Speaker 1: those questions. It didn't. But some people love this and

1790
01:29:35,880 --> 01:29:38,519
Speaker 1: some people hated it. And so what we did is,

1791
01:29:38,560 --> 01:29:40,400
Speaker 1: you said, all right, well, given that, let's give people

1792
01:29:40,439 --> 01:29:42,799
Speaker 1: a choice. You can decide you can hide light counts

1793
01:29:43,240 --> 01:29:45,280
Speaker 1: and not have to be part of your Instagram experience,

1794
01:29:45,439 --> 01:29:47,519
Speaker 1: or you can have light counts. Well more, we have

1795
01:29:47,640 --> 01:29:49,760
Speaker 1: more with the head of Instagram, Adam Musseri. When we

1796
01:29:49,840 --> 01:29:53,200
Speaker 1: come back is the Breakfast Club, Good morning, the Breakfast Club,

1797
01:29:56,640 --> 01:30:00,760
Speaker 1: more Abidas, dj Envy angela Ye, shallow me and the

1798
01:30:00,800 --> 01:30:02,800
Speaker 1: guy we are. The Breakfast Club was still kicking with

1799
01:30:02,880 --> 01:30:06,320
Speaker 1: Adam Museri, the head of Instagram, tired of seeing if

1800
01:30:06,400 --> 01:30:09,759
Speaker 1: I like her booty or not. I'm tired of bitcoin

1801
01:30:09,960 --> 01:30:13,880
Speaker 1: because you should invest with this person. The word is sam.

1802
01:30:14,479 --> 01:30:16,400
Speaker 1: I didn't know where he was talking about it something

1803
01:30:16,560 --> 01:30:19,479
Speaker 1: long and hard. I don't get that one, but go ahead,

1804
01:30:19,800 --> 01:30:25,840
Speaker 1: I get that so much like this, like it's ridiculous

1805
01:30:25,880 --> 01:30:29,560
Speaker 1: and why stops? Yeah, so some of this happens just

1806
01:30:29,720 --> 01:30:31,840
Speaker 1: because we make the mistakes and we think you're interested

1807
01:30:31,840 --> 01:30:33,519
Speaker 1: in things that you're not interested in. And so right

1808
01:30:33,560 --> 01:30:38,120
Speaker 1: now you can say, right, all, yeah, why would why

1809
01:30:38,160 --> 01:30:40,040
Speaker 1: would you think? Are the ads? Are there just a

1810
01:30:40,160 --> 01:30:47,559
Speaker 1: regular like spam much like comments comments spam? Yeah? Yeah, okay,

1811
01:30:50,280 --> 01:30:54,040
Speaker 1: you're talking about spam in the comments, right. I thought

1812
01:30:54,040 --> 01:30:56,080
Speaker 1: you were talking about like in your explore. No, this

1813
01:30:56,280 --> 01:30:58,560
Speaker 1: is spam you're getting. If you're getting, you want a

1814
01:30:58,600 --> 01:31:02,320
Speaker 1: long and hardened and explore. It's like trying to address this.

1815
01:31:02,760 --> 01:31:09,240
Speaker 1: I'm ordering no, pedith, ordering penis and lament. This some delicate,

1816
01:31:09,479 --> 01:31:12,960
Speaker 1: delicate you know, answer to this question was like, like,

1817
01:31:13,000 --> 01:31:21,559
Speaker 1: what are you following? Man? Okay, way better now, Thank

1818
01:31:21,600 --> 01:31:23,479
Speaker 1: you for making me feel good about it. If I

1819
01:31:23,600 --> 01:31:26,720
Speaker 1: wasn't to explore with you know it teach their if

1820
01:31:26,720 --> 01:31:36,519
Speaker 1: it's no judgments, No, it's in the comment picture right

1821
01:31:36,560 --> 01:31:39,479
Speaker 1: now and within spams. Yeah, so this is yeah, so

1822
01:31:39,560 --> 01:31:41,960
Speaker 1: the bots and the spam comments. So we are working

1823
01:31:42,040 --> 01:31:44,000
Speaker 1: on this. One of the things is we've made less

1824
01:31:44,080 --> 01:31:46,720
Speaker 1: progress on this issue as some other issues because we've

1825
01:31:46,800 --> 01:31:50,840
Speaker 1: prioritized things like safety issues. But we've gotten better at bots.

1826
01:31:50,920 --> 01:31:53,519
Speaker 1: But the thing is the spammer is and the bots

1827
01:31:53,520 --> 01:31:56,120
Speaker 1: they've gotten more sophisticated. So we do things we look like, okay,

1828
01:31:56,120 --> 01:31:58,599
Speaker 1: if you comment every second of the day, twenty four

1829
01:31:58,600 --> 01:32:00,439
Speaker 1: hours a day, you're not a person. You're so like,

1830
01:32:00,479 --> 01:32:03,160
Speaker 1: we shut you down. But they've gotten sophisticated. They mask

1831
01:32:03,240 --> 01:32:05,519
Speaker 1: themselves at different phones, they do it on different intervals,

1832
01:32:05,800 --> 01:32:08,080
Speaker 1: they pretend to sleep, they do all of this stuff,

1833
01:32:08,120 --> 01:32:10,720
Speaker 1: and so it's it's a it's an arms race, so

1834
01:32:10,840 --> 01:32:13,040
Speaker 1: to speak. As we get better at addressing issues, they

1835
01:32:13,120 --> 01:32:14,720
Speaker 1: work around those issues, and then we got to get

1836
01:32:14,760 --> 01:32:16,720
Speaker 1: better addressing those new issues. I should hire them. They

1837
01:32:16,760 --> 01:32:19,240
Speaker 1: seem pretty We try, we try, we know we try

1838
01:32:19,320 --> 01:32:21,479
Speaker 1: what about getting verified? People always want to know how

1839
01:32:21,520 --> 01:32:23,439
Speaker 1: can I get ver Yes, there's people that are like,

1840
01:32:23,560 --> 01:32:25,920
Speaker 1: I can pay if you pay me, I can get

1841
01:32:25,960 --> 01:32:34,680
Speaker 1: you a scam scam, No, don't um. So you can

1842
01:32:34,720 --> 01:32:37,599
Speaker 1: apply in the app the point of verification though it's

1843
01:32:37,680 --> 01:32:41,160
Speaker 1: not supposed to be a status symbol. It's supposed to

1844
01:32:41,240 --> 01:32:43,560
Speaker 1: be a way for people who are getting impersonated to

1845
01:32:43,680 --> 01:32:46,280
Speaker 1: be able to signal to the world what their real

1846
01:32:46,320 --> 01:32:48,439
Speaker 1: account is. Now it's turned into a status symbol. I

1847
01:32:48,520 --> 01:32:50,439
Speaker 1: get that, but that was not ever the intent. You

1848
01:32:50,520 --> 01:32:53,200
Speaker 1: can apply in the app. What we look for essentially

1849
01:32:53,400 --> 01:32:57,200
Speaker 1: is notability. We try to evaluate it using third parties,

1850
01:32:57,320 --> 01:32:59,760
Speaker 1: so we basically look for press about you. There's no

1851
01:33:00,000 --> 01:33:02,800
Speaker 1: in them follow our account. If you don't get approved

1852
01:33:03,160 --> 01:33:05,320
Speaker 1: in the vast majority of the cases, it's because we

1853
01:33:05,400 --> 01:33:08,120
Speaker 1: couldn't find enough press about you. Let's say I've search

1854
01:33:08,200 --> 01:33:11,519
Speaker 1: cars and then all I'll get his cars, car car car,

1855
01:33:11,680 --> 01:33:14,479
Speaker 1: car car car, or if I search your phones, or

1856
01:33:14,520 --> 01:33:16,560
Speaker 1: I'll get his phone phone and phone phonell do you

1857
01:33:16,640 --> 01:33:18,400
Speaker 1: guys do that? And can we take that off so

1858
01:33:18,520 --> 01:33:20,240
Speaker 1: I don't have to see that all day long? Forgive

1859
01:33:20,280 --> 01:33:23,240
Speaker 1: search and I can be talking about something we don't listen.

1860
01:33:23,320 --> 01:33:26,200
Speaker 1: We don't listen. My wife thinks I'm a liar on

1861
01:33:26,280 --> 01:33:28,200
Speaker 1: this too. It's a real cast and fight at the home.

1862
01:33:28,880 --> 01:33:33,200
Speaker 1: Um okay, So on the search or on ads more broadly,

1863
01:33:33,280 --> 01:33:35,040
Speaker 1: so this is this adds where this will happens. Ye,

1864
01:33:35,640 --> 01:33:37,360
Speaker 1: they'll explore. It is a little tippy too, like if

1865
01:33:37,400 --> 01:33:39,200
Speaker 1: I express a little bit too much interest in something,

1866
01:33:39,280 --> 01:33:40,720
Speaker 1: I get a lot of that thing for a couple

1867
01:33:40,720 --> 01:33:42,960
Speaker 1: of whiles. So we're trying to get to better um

1868
01:33:43,160 --> 01:33:46,120
Speaker 1: balance there. But on ads you can't. You can go

1869
01:33:46,160 --> 01:33:47,920
Speaker 1: to your ad preferences and you can say I'm interested in.

1870
01:33:48,040 --> 01:33:49,519
Speaker 1: It will show you what we think you're interested in,

1871
01:33:49,600 --> 01:33:51,720
Speaker 1: and you can change them. Um. And so that's over

1872
01:33:51,840 --> 01:33:54,759
Speaker 1: undersettings under your profile and or ad preferences for listening.

1873
01:33:54,840 --> 01:33:57,799
Speaker 1: We are not listening. It would be a gross violation

1874
01:33:57,840 --> 01:33:59,960
Speaker 1: of policy. Would also drain your battery, your phone would

1875
01:34:00,080 --> 01:34:01,400
Speaker 1: turn on like you would be able to know it.

1876
01:34:01,800 --> 01:34:04,040
Speaker 1: But all the time we get accused of this. I

1877
01:34:04,240 --> 01:34:07,680
Speaker 1: think what is happening is one sometimes the advertising is

1878
01:34:07,680 --> 01:34:10,120
Speaker 1: actually working. Like you saw it a couple of times

1879
01:34:10,640 --> 01:34:12,479
Speaker 1: and then you thought about it, and then you know,

1880
01:34:12,640 --> 01:34:14,439
Speaker 1: and then you noticed it and you talked about it.

1881
01:34:14,800 --> 01:34:16,160
Speaker 1: I don't have a bible to make you put you

1882
01:34:16,400 --> 01:34:20,400
Speaker 1: I will put my hand on it. I don't know

1883
01:34:20,439 --> 01:34:25,800
Speaker 1: how to I'm not going to convince you. Clearly that's

1884
01:34:25,840 --> 01:34:27,560
Speaker 1: a weird thing to do. If you want me to

1885
01:34:27,600 --> 01:34:30,760
Speaker 1: do it, I'll do it. Um. I think also is

1886
01:34:30,840 --> 01:34:33,840
Speaker 1: that we don't just show you ads based on what

1887
01:34:33,960 --> 01:34:36,280
Speaker 1: we know about you. We show you ads based on

1888
01:34:36,640 --> 01:34:38,559
Speaker 1: you know what your friends seem to like. We call

1889
01:34:38,640 --> 01:34:41,320
Speaker 1: that collaborative filtering. And ads are good, like we're good

1890
01:34:41,479 --> 01:34:43,840
Speaker 1: at figuring out what you're interested in. We don't always

1891
01:34:43,840 --> 01:34:45,160
Speaker 1: get it right. We make mistakes. I know a lot

1892
01:34:45,200 --> 01:34:47,040
Speaker 1: of people don't like ads, but we think that ads

1893
01:34:47,080 --> 01:34:51,000
Speaker 1: fundamentally they allow small businesses to play on an equal

1894
01:34:51,040 --> 01:34:53,320
Speaker 1: playing field with big businesses. And then it woul happened

1895
01:34:53,320 --> 01:34:54,920
Speaker 1: to you. Have you been talking about something then you

1896
01:34:54,960 --> 01:34:57,360
Speaker 1: look down at your Instagram the ad for it pops up.

1897
01:34:57,960 --> 01:35:00,720
Speaker 1: Not directly, no, but I've definitely they had things been like,

1898
01:35:00,800 --> 01:35:03,280
Speaker 1: how the hell did we know I was interested in that?

1899
01:35:03,680 --> 01:35:05,880
Speaker 1: How many meanings did you have to be in the president?

1900
01:35:06,160 --> 01:35:09,720
Speaker 1: That was that a huge conversation. It was an intense conversation,

1901
01:35:10,520 --> 01:35:13,479
Speaker 1: but it was an intensity of circumstances we didn't have

1902
01:35:13,640 --> 01:35:17,320
Speaker 1: a policy for what happens when a sitting president incites

1903
01:35:17,360 --> 01:35:20,720
Speaker 1: a riot to try to prevent the peaceful transfer of

1904
01:35:20,760 --> 01:35:23,080
Speaker 1: power to a new president. There's sort of the new

1905
01:35:23,200 --> 01:35:26,400
Speaker 1: territory for all of us lying this whole presidency. Though, yeah,

1906
01:35:26,400 --> 01:35:28,640
Speaker 1: I could have took them down early on, right, But

1907
01:35:28,720 --> 01:35:31,960
Speaker 1: we don't have a policy against lye. We have a

1908
01:35:32,000 --> 01:35:34,400
Speaker 1: policy against lying when they're safety risks. You could make

1909
01:35:34,439 --> 01:35:36,920
Speaker 1: that case here. But we also want to make sure

1910
01:35:36,960 --> 01:35:40,040
Speaker 1: that politicians can get health accountable for their actions, and

1911
01:35:40,200 --> 01:35:42,920
Speaker 1: so they've had historically in certain areas different rules, the

1912
01:35:43,000 --> 01:35:45,240
Speaker 1: same way public figures have different rules. But that was

1913
01:35:45,280 --> 01:35:47,720
Speaker 1: an intense moment, and we have this thing that we

1914
01:35:47,840 --> 01:35:49,640
Speaker 1: call the Oversight Board now because a lot of these

1915
01:35:49,720 --> 01:35:52,479
Speaker 1: decisions we think shouldn't be made by us directly, So

1916
01:35:52,560 --> 01:35:55,880
Speaker 1: we sort of built this board. It's independent, and we

1917
01:35:56,280 --> 01:35:59,360
Speaker 1: made this decision and then we asked them for their

1918
01:35:59,400 --> 01:36:02,120
Speaker 1: opinion on it. Basically, um, they did. But what I

1919
01:36:02,120 --> 01:36:04,000
Speaker 1: would have done, which they said, is like, yeah, we

1920
01:36:04,000 --> 01:36:05,479
Speaker 1: would have banned them too, But you have to have

1921
01:36:05,520 --> 01:36:08,200
Speaker 1: a policy. You can't just like do it something, you know,

1922
01:36:08,280 --> 01:36:09,960
Speaker 1: as a one off. And I think that was fair.

1923
01:36:10,000 --> 01:36:12,800
Speaker 1: And then we defined a policy now and he suspended

1924
01:36:12,880 --> 01:36:15,320
Speaker 1: four two years. Who owns the pictures that you post?

1925
01:36:15,400 --> 01:36:17,000
Speaker 1: Because it was a rumor that you own a pictures

1926
01:36:17,760 --> 01:36:20,439
Speaker 1: so we own a pictures. Instagram does not own the pictures. Yeah,

1927
01:36:20,640 --> 01:36:24,520
Speaker 1: once every year or two we get a false declaration

1928
01:36:24,640 --> 01:36:26,280
Speaker 1: that like, you don't own your stuff and if you

1929
01:36:26,400 --> 01:36:29,680
Speaker 1: repost this random chain letter, you own it and it

1930
01:36:29,760 --> 01:36:31,759
Speaker 1: goes viral. But then we try to go on correct

1931
01:36:31,800 --> 01:36:34,439
Speaker 1: that as quickly as possible and make sure people know

1932
01:36:34,479 --> 01:36:36,759
Speaker 1: what the real rules are. I wonder about the intention.

1933
01:36:36,800 --> 01:36:39,000
Speaker 1: I wonder what the intention was when they first started

1934
01:36:39,040 --> 01:36:42,040
Speaker 1: a lot of these sites. But also when you see

1935
01:36:42,120 --> 01:36:45,439
Speaker 1: Frankenstein becoming Frankenstein, when do you know, maybe it might

1936
01:36:45,520 --> 01:36:49,280
Speaker 1: be time to take down Frankenstein's Frankenstein the whole thing.

1937
01:36:49,439 --> 01:36:51,600
Speaker 1: At this point, it feels like it like when you

1938
01:36:51,680 --> 01:36:53,400
Speaker 1: watch movies, like when you watch the communities, like the

1939
01:36:53,479 --> 01:36:56,080
Speaker 1: Social Dilemma on Netflix. What goes through your mind that

1940
01:36:56,200 --> 01:36:58,439
Speaker 1: specific one, though, I felt like it was a little

1941
01:36:58,479 --> 01:37:02,840
Speaker 1: bit dramatic triplet programmers like in a Star Trek place

1942
01:37:02,920 --> 01:37:05,360
Speaker 1: deciding what you see is clearly on how things work.

1943
01:37:05,520 --> 01:37:07,240
Speaker 1: But overall I thought they were bringing up in portant

1944
01:37:07,240 --> 01:37:08,920
Speaker 1: issues that should be talked about. I thought that's a

1945
01:37:08,960 --> 01:37:12,360
Speaker 1: healthy thing. Now, Look I'm biased. I want to recognize

1946
01:37:12,360 --> 01:37:14,800
Speaker 1: that up front, but I really believe that we do

1947
01:37:14,960 --> 01:37:16,600
Speaker 1: a lot of good in the world. We help a

1948
01:37:16,640 --> 01:37:19,559
Speaker 1: lot of people express themselves. We help them go straight

1949
01:37:19,600 --> 01:37:21,799
Speaker 1: to their fans or to the or to their friends,

1950
01:37:22,120 --> 01:37:24,840
Speaker 1: they don't have to go to traditional media. We will

1951
01:37:24,840 --> 01:37:27,599
Speaker 1: help small businesses around the world. We help marginalized communities

1952
01:37:27,600 --> 01:37:29,479
Speaker 1: around the world in a lot of ways. But there's

1953
01:37:29,479 --> 01:37:31,559
Speaker 1: bad that comes to now. I think there's more good

1954
01:37:31,600 --> 01:37:33,880
Speaker 1: than bad. So I don't think that it makes sense that,

1955
01:37:34,040 --> 01:37:35,920
Speaker 1: you know, put a bullet in Frankenstein to use your

1956
01:37:35,960 --> 01:37:39,080
Speaker 1: metaphor right the playing field for people too in a

1957
01:37:39,160 --> 01:37:40,800
Speaker 1: huge way. Like I love to see how like a

1958
01:37:40,880 --> 01:37:43,120
Speaker 1: Lala Milan or a DC young Fly, how some of

1959
01:37:43,240 --> 01:37:46,120
Speaker 1: these creators have been able to really use social media

1960
01:37:46,640 --> 01:37:48,840
Speaker 1: to get the platforms that they have now. But then

1961
01:37:48,880 --> 01:37:50,599
Speaker 1: I hate qing on and then I hate the fact

1962
01:37:50,600 --> 01:37:53,160
Speaker 1: that there was an attempted cool of the government on January.

1963
01:37:53,160 --> 01:37:54,600
Speaker 1: So it's like, I really feel like we're headed do

1964
01:37:54,760 --> 01:37:59,080
Speaker 1: some orson wells war the world type because of nobody

1965
01:37:59,120 --> 01:38:00,920
Speaker 1: cares about the truth on social media when the lives

1966
01:38:00,960 --> 01:38:03,160
Speaker 1: more entertained. Well, I think confirmation bias is a thing,

1967
01:38:03,240 --> 01:38:05,720
Speaker 1: and that's the oldest time. People want to hear what

1968
01:38:05,800 --> 01:38:07,040
Speaker 1: they agree with and they don't want to hear what

1969
01:38:07,120 --> 01:38:08,960
Speaker 1: they don't agree with. Just give me the keys to

1970
01:38:09,040 --> 01:38:12,000
Speaker 1: the nuclear code. Just tell me. Just give me and

1971
01:38:12,080 --> 01:38:14,360
Speaker 1: I can just go in and delete pages. That's it.

1972
01:38:14,600 --> 01:38:17,200
Speaker 1: I can do that. I got time. It's a lot

1973
01:38:17,240 --> 01:38:18,960
Speaker 1: of people, it's a lot of I got it. Just

1974
01:38:19,040 --> 01:38:20,840
Speaker 1: give me the keys to the nuclear code. But the

1975
01:38:20,920 --> 01:38:23,479
Speaker 1: concerns you have, like I said before, we had those

1976
01:38:23,520 --> 01:38:27,760
Speaker 1: concerns about every major new technology, particularly around the ones

1977
01:38:27,840 --> 01:38:30,160
Speaker 1: that change how people communicate. One of the big concerns

1978
01:38:30,160 --> 01:38:31,840
Speaker 1: about writing when it first existed was that there was

1979
01:38:31,880 --> 01:38:33,760
Speaker 1: no one there to disagree with you. Well, those people

1980
01:38:33,760 --> 01:38:36,200
Speaker 1: get held liable though, Like you can sue an author

1981
01:38:36,320 --> 01:38:38,240
Speaker 1: for playing the defamation. That's why they take to change

1982
01:38:38,320 --> 01:38:40,400
Speaker 1: names in books and things of that nature. But for

1983
01:38:40,479 --> 01:38:42,599
Speaker 1: certain issues, yeah, But for other issues, no, you could

1984
01:38:42,640 --> 01:38:44,760
Speaker 1: say something, you can make a case for something that

1985
01:38:44,960 --> 01:38:47,639
Speaker 1: is really problematic in a bunch of different ways, put

1986
01:38:47,720 --> 01:38:50,519
Speaker 1: it out there and it doesn't violate along in any country.

1987
01:38:50,720 --> 01:38:53,240
Speaker 1: You can sue for defamation on social media too. Though, right,

1988
01:38:53,280 --> 01:38:56,880
Speaker 1: if somebody says something about you that's defamatory and not true. Yeah,

1989
01:38:56,960 --> 01:38:59,880
Speaker 1: I think the question is who's accountable is the person

1990
01:39:00,000 --> 01:39:02,240
Speaker 1: who said it or the platforms or the platform And

1991
01:39:03,160 --> 01:39:05,080
Speaker 1: I think the platforms need to be held accountable for

1992
01:39:05,800 --> 01:39:09,479
Speaker 1: taking not just reasonable, but like meaningful measures to reduce

1993
01:39:09,560 --> 01:39:12,160
Speaker 1: these problems. I don't think it's sustainable for us to

1994
01:39:12,280 --> 01:39:15,960
Speaker 1: be accountable for everything everybody says, because if we were,

1995
01:39:16,520 --> 01:39:19,960
Speaker 1: we would have to take down so much content that

1996
01:39:20,080 --> 01:39:22,800
Speaker 1: you would have a huge censorship issue. We appreciate you

1997

Speaker 1: all right, South Carolina, eight for three all day. That

2035

Speaker 1: just do it at our houses are on vacation when

2040
01:41:44,840 --> 01:41:46,639
Speaker 1: the kids go to sleep. But the reason I'm giving

2041
01:41:46,680 --> 01:41:50,439
Speaker 1: myself donkey of to day is because this morning, when

2042
01:41:50,479 --> 01:41:53,280
Speaker 1: I was here by myself, I was talking about the

2043
01:41:53,360 --> 01:41:56,920
Speaker 1: domestic terrorists that you know hit the capitol, you know,

2044
01:41:57,000 --> 01:41:59,720
Speaker 1: Vanilla isis And I was still on a high after

2045
01:42:00,000 --> 01:42:03,639
Speaker 1: listening to all these good country rap tunes this morning

2046
01:42:03,720 --> 01:42:06,800
Speaker 1: on title and I feel I feel stupid. Just listen

2047
01:42:06,840 --> 01:42:09,880
Speaker 1: to how I've been sounding this morning. I've talked my

2048
01:42:09,960 --> 01:42:12,800
Speaker 1: way out of enough home invasions to know when something

2049
01:42:12,920 --> 01:42:15,000
Speaker 1: is a setup. Okay. I don't even know who the

2050
01:42:15,080 --> 01:42:18,519
Speaker 1: trust in government anymore, but I know who I do trust,

2051
01:42:19,040 --> 01:42:23,559
Speaker 1: and that's no damn body okay. Period. And for some reason,

2052
01:42:23,600 --> 01:42:25,040
Speaker 1: I started to saying, that's on crip. But I'm not

2053
01:42:25,080 --> 01:42:26,200
Speaker 1: a crips. I don't even know why the hell I

2054
01:42:26,240 --> 01:42:28,280
Speaker 1: would even say something like that. All right, Sluth dollar

2055
01:42:28,320 --> 01:42:30,479
Speaker 1: gangs out there, I'm driving in this morning. I heard

2056
01:42:30,479 --> 01:42:32,600
Speaker 1: you shout out all the gangs. Then I don't know

2057
01:42:32,640 --> 01:42:34,439
Speaker 1: why I said, I'm gonna be asking you, you know

2058
01:42:34,479 --> 01:42:36,200
Speaker 1: how I feelbody be talking like that's on crip and

2059
01:42:36,200 --> 01:42:37,479
Speaker 1: then I don't think about it, like I didn't even

2060
01:42:37,520 --> 01:42:39,400
Speaker 1: know crip. Why am I saying I'm walking in blue

2061
01:42:39,439 --> 01:42:41,479
Speaker 1: dollar gangs? Though, Mellow, I don't know what's going on

2062
01:42:41,600 --> 01:42:48,880
Speaker 1: to Pall held it down for the morning. Why everybody

2063
01:42:49,000 --> 01:42:52,960
Speaker 1: wasn't there, Man, it's about time. I don't know who

2064
01:42:53,040 --> 01:42:56,519
Speaker 1: died it made you six nine, but I don't know

2065
01:42:56,680 --> 01:42:59,639
Speaker 1: who died and made me six nineties. And Mellow, it's

2066
01:42:59,720 --> 01:43:01,880
Speaker 1: quite a problems with all those statements. Number one, I

2067
01:43:01,920 --> 01:43:03,920
Speaker 1: don't gang bang, never having my life. I'm not a cript,

2068
01:43:04,000 --> 01:43:06,000
Speaker 1: not a blood either. I'm nothing. I'm a man who

2069
01:43:06,040 --> 01:43:08,080
Speaker 1: has therapy today at three pm. I'm a man who

2070
01:43:08,200 --> 01:43:10,560
Speaker 1: is scared to order a protein shake from around the

2071
01:43:10,600 --> 01:43:12,760
Speaker 1: corner and hear in tribecas because I feel like they

2072
01:43:12,880 --> 01:43:14,720
Speaker 1: keep giving me whole milk and not owning milk. And

2073
01:43:14,760 --> 01:43:16,679
Speaker 1: I don't have time to spend hours on the toilet

2074
01:43:16,720 --> 01:43:19,240
Speaker 1: today and I get dairy bumps. My point was saying

2075
01:43:19,320 --> 01:43:21,799
Speaker 1: all of this, and the reason I'm giving myself donkey

2076
01:43:21,840 --> 01:43:24,360
Speaker 1: to day is because I just feel stupid, and donkey

2077
01:43:24,439 --> 01:43:26,559
Speaker 1: today is all about giving people to credit they deserve

2078
01:43:26,640 --> 01:43:28,479
Speaker 1: for being stupid. If you read my first book, the

2079
01:43:28,560 --> 01:43:30,600
Speaker 1: New York Times best selling Black Privilege, and you know

2080
01:43:30,880 --> 01:43:33,320
Speaker 1: one of my laws in my book was always give

2081
01:43:33,360 --> 01:43:35,920
Speaker 1: people to credit they deserve for being stupid, including yourself.

2082
01:43:36,080 --> 01:43:38,000
Speaker 1: And that's what I'm doing right now. The reason I

2083
01:43:38,040 --> 01:43:40,519
Speaker 1: feel stupid is because I was writing in the work

2084
01:43:40,560 --> 01:43:42,800
Speaker 1: this morning, listening to the New South playlists on a

2085
01:43:42,840 --> 01:43:44,880
Speaker 1: title bro. There's some records on there that make my

2086

Speaker 1: inner child smile. I mean, there are records on there

2087
01:43:48,080 --> 01:43:51,120

Speaker 1: six four. When you come from a certain environment, there

2090
01:43:54,840 --> 01:43:56,960
Speaker 1: is a certain energy that is always in you. And

2091
01:43:57,040 --> 01:43:59,080
Speaker 1: when you listen to certain music, certain music is so

2092
01:43:59,320 --> 01:44:02,400
Speaker 1: powerful and it would just have you feeling like you

2093
01:44:02,560 --> 01:44:06,200
Speaker 1: something you're not. Okay, that's what Pooh shysty guard Up

Speaker 1: did for me. Okay, that's play pool shasty guard Um.

01:44:09,920 --> 01:44:11,560
Speaker 1: Let me here a little bit of that man comes
