I wrote that while I was pregnant. 0:03:10.880 --> 0:03:13.480 Thirties is crazy, and then it was made for me, 0:03:13.680 --> 0:03:17.360 and then it was reverse things I never said. I 0:03:17.400 --> 0:03:18.760 wrote all of those at the same time. 0:03:19.240 --> 0:03:21.760 Let's get into thirties before. Why are you looking good? 0:03:21.800 --> 0:03:22.200 Good? 0:03:22.720 --> 0:03:25.799 Thirties is one of the most honest records I've heard 0:03:26.480 --> 0:03:27.680 from a female. 0:03:27.440 --> 0:03:30.079 From a female because of the age thing. 0:03:30.280 --> 0:03:32.959 Yes, yes, because I feel like women tend to stay 0:03:33.000 --> 0:03:34.600 away from that, you know. 0:03:34.960 --> 0:03:42.400 I get a lot of what's the word massaging around 0:03:42.480 --> 0:03:44.400 the age. I'll be thirty six in two weeks. I 0:03:44.440 --> 0:03:47.160 do not give a buck if y'all know how old 0:03:47.200 --> 0:03:50.480 I am. What Adele said, I make music for the ears. 0:03:51.600 --> 0:03:54.680 If you have a problem with what I'm saying, I'm 0:03:54.720 --> 0:03:58.240 talking about the human experience. How old I am has 0:03:58.280 --> 0:04:00.680 nothing to do and I'm not selling sex. I don't 0:04:00.720 --> 0:04:03.120 want you to like me. I want you to listen 0:04:03.120 --> 0:04:05.200 to the music and be affected by it. My age 0:04:05.240 --> 0:04:07.920 has absolutely nothing to do with it. I could be 0:04:07.960 --> 0:04:11.320 fifty saying the same things. I think the problem is 0:04:11.320 --> 0:04:16.760 is that it's such a cognitive dissonance that people feel 0:04:16.760 --> 0:04:20.159 when they look at me, they see a youthful and 0:04:20.200 --> 0:04:23.599 thirty six is young, by the way, still, but they 0:04:23.640 --> 0:04:27.200 see like a twenty something, you know. So like a 0:04:27.240 --> 0:04:30.200 lot of the younger artists, they think I'm their age. 0:04:30.240 --> 0:04:33.719 They think I'm like twenty three, you know, twenty five 0:04:34.160 --> 0:04:38.839 somewhere near. And so I think it bothers people when 0:04:38.839 --> 0:04:41.599 they realize that I'm a grown woman. 0:04:42.320 --> 0:04:42.920 I don't know if. 0:04:43.920 --> 0:04:47.240 Yeah, no, it's like, how how are you doing that? 0:04:47.320 --> 0:04:48.240 How are you so youthful? 0:04:48.240 --> 0:04:50.440 I don't think it's a bother I think the system 0:04:50.600 --> 0:04:54.560 is always It has just been set up to get 0:04:54.600 --> 0:04:56.520 all of it, all of it, all that it can 0:04:56.560 --> 0:04:59.120 get out of you, and it feels like, or what 0:04:59.160 --> 0:05:01.720 has been programmed feel like, is that by the thirties 0:05:01.800 --> 0:05:04.640 it's gotten all its need and it's now ready to 0:05:04.720 --> 0:05:08.080 move you on to pasture and usher in the new right. 0:05:08.120 --> 0:05:11.599 Well in other words, you're no longer stupid and we 0:05:11.640 --> 0:05:13.240 can no longer take advantage of you. 0:05:13.720 --> 0:05:17.640 And now we're starting to realize, we're starting to re 0:05:17.640 --> 0:05:22.360 reshape that idea because we don't we don't look it, 0:05:23.440 --> 0:05:26.320 don't really I don't know if there's an act that. 0:05:26.520 --> 0:05:28.679 I don't even know if that's a thing. But we're 0:05:28.720 --> 0:05:34.280 not We're not last last generations thirty and forty and fifty. 0:05:35.640 --> 0:05:40.640 And also, I think the age of like viability value 0:05:41.760 --> 0:05:45.280 has been extended through TikTok and things like that, where 0:05:45.279 --> 0:05:51.200 you're seeing older influencers, content creators. You're seeing models now 0:05:51.240 --> 0:05:56.520 do have gray hair, you know, doing beauty campaigns. I 0:05:56.600 --> 0:06:02.240 just don't think that, like I think usefulness and results 0:06:02.760 --> 0:06:07.080 are more valued than actual age, because there's a lot 0:06:07.080 --> 0:06:09.640 of young people who are just in the way. You're 0:06:09.680 --> 0:06:13.039 not doing nothing. You don't want to work hard, you 0:06:13.080 --> 0:06:14.520 know what I'm saying. You want to get paid and 0:06:14.520 --> 0:06:15.400 you don't want to do nothing. 0:06:15.800 --> 0:06:19.240 Just move around, said, which was a great point he said. 0:06:19.480 --> 0:06:26.360 During the pandemic, versus was a very telling moment for 0:06:26.520 --> 0:06:30.120 the people who actually had talent and the people who didn't, 0:06:30.760 --> 0:06:35.680 and it reminded people of the quality that they had 0:06:35.680 --> 0:06:40.080 been missing in music for a very very long time. 0:06:40.680 --> 0:06:43.120 And he was like, that was the re emergence of 0:06:43.880 --> 0:06:47.400 R and B taking a place that that had been 0:06:47.400 --> 0:06:48.559 missed from it for so long. 0:06:49.120 --> 0:06:52.760 Like we were in the pandemic, R and B was mainstream, 0:06:53.040 --> 0:06:56.680 absolutely mainstream. Absolutely everybody was tapped in R. 0:06:56.600 --> 0:07:01.480 And B, tapped in D nice, R and B mainstream 0:07:02.200 --> 0:07:04.920 artists pandemic? 0:07:05.400 --> 0:07:09.159 Can we talk the biggest record industrys during the pandemic. 0:07:08.880 --> 0:07:10.760 And coming out of that, it is like you said, now, 0:07:10.760 --> 0:07:13.240 it's like people are like, hold on now, they're not 0:07:13.280 --> 0:07:15.720 allowing themselves to be programmed by that age thing or 0:07:15.760 --> 0:07:18.440 whatever that is. No, we like that. We liked the 0:07:18.480 --> 0:07:21.680 model with the great hand something. Yeah, we liked we 0:07:21.840 --> 0:07:25.240 liked these songs. I don't I don't care that it 0:07:25.280 --> 0:07:28.640 doesn't stay in sonically with what with what that guy 0:07:28.680 --> 0:07:29.400 is rapping. 0:07:29.120 --> 0:07:30.240 About it is now. 0:07:30.320 --> 0:07:32.480 But there was a lot of things being offered to 0:07:32.560 --> 0:07:37.800 me during hours and hours, uh you know peak of 0:07:37.840 --> 0:07:42.480 that song where there was maybe some artists who were 0:07:42.640 --> 0:07:45.920 past their time in the light, but there were still 0:07:46.320 --> 0:07:49.360 legends wanting to work with me, and I was being 0:07:49.400 --> 0:07:52.640 advised not to do it. It's like I was like, oh, 0:07:52.640 --> 0:07:55.120 that's not your demographic. But I'm not thinking about it. 0:07:55.160 --> 0:07:57.480 I'm thinking about what experience am I having as an artist. 0:07:57.880 --> 0:08:00.440 I've always wanted to work with these people. I've looked 0:08:00.520 --> 0:08:01.960 up to them, and I would hope that when I 0:08:02.400 --> 0:08:05.400 get to that place that people aren't using that same 0:08:05.560 --> 0:08:09.840 fear based I never make decisions based on fear. So 0:08:09.920 --> 0:08:12.320 you're saying that I shouldn't do it because we don't 0:08:12.360 --> 0:08:16.720 want people to age me and think I'm old. That's crazy. 0:08:16.960 --> 0:08:18.880 I want to be able to say I have a 0:08:18.920 --> 0:08:22.120 song with this person, because in ten years, fifteen years, 0:08:22.120 --> 0:08:26.560 if they're not here any longer, that becomes something special, 0:08:27.560 --> 0:08:29.680 you know. So I never make decisions based on that. 0:08:29.760 --> 0:08:32.360 But I do think that it's really silly that we 0:08:32.480 --> 0:08:37.120 have all these like limiting beliefs. But that's so crazy 0:08:37.160 --> 0:08:37.400 to me. 0:08:37.760 --> 0:08:39.880 The most interesting part about that, though, is that it's 0:08:40.040 --> 0:08:43.120 usually older people advising. 0:08:42.640 --> 0:08:44.760 You, right, that's the right thing. 0:08:44.800 --> 0:08:48.080 Your own fear projection, you're old. Yeah, no, I don't 0:08:48.160 --> 0:08:49.199 really care about none of. 0:08:49.160 --> 0:08:51.680 That, you know, I don't. 0:08:51.720 --> 0:08:52.360 I can care too. 0:08:52.440 --> 0:08:54.240 Shit, it's about most of the shit to they be 0:08:54.240 --> 0:08:54.760 talking about. 0:08:55.360 --> 0:08:58.440 So for me, it's just like you you have to 0:08:58.640 --> 0:09:00.760 at some point you have to take the stance of 0:09:01.800 --> 0:09:03.520 I want to do that what feels good to me. 0:09:03.760 --> 0:09:05.880 Like you said, you want to have that experience. There 0:09:05.880 --> 0:09:08.360 are people that you've looked up to that made that 0:09:08.480 --> 0:09:11.120 phone call that you're like, oh, I'm going to answer 0:09:11.200 --> 0:09:11.560 that call. 0:09:11.760 --> 0:09:12.400 Absolutely. 0:09:12.520 --> 0:09:14.079 I don't give a damn thing. You put out a 0:09:14.120 --> 0:09:17.400 record in twenty years. So what they called me, I 0:09:17.520 --> 0:09:20.520 enjoyed their music. I'm a fan because that's the other 0:09:20.559 --> 0:09:22.520 thing I think that it's happened in this business too, 0:09:22.559 --> 0:09:25.480 is that people forget that at one. 0:09:25.320 --> 0:09:29.160 Point we were off just fans. 0:09:30.679 --> 0:09:33.400 At some point, you know what I mean, and hopefully 0:09:33.440 --> 0:09:37.040 they remember that we're still fan. I'm listening to your album. 0:09:37.120 --> 0:09:40.760 Let's get back to that. To revenge as a pure fan. Yes, 0:09:40.800 --> 0:09:43.760 I've known you and you're my friend, but I don't 0:09:43.840 --> 0:09:47.360 judge people's music as my friends. I judge as a 0:09:47.400 --> 0:09:48.720 fan because I got shit to do. 0:09:49.280 --> 0:09:52.520 Because that I support that I really don't like their music. 0:09:53.440 --> 0:09:54.200 I'm me telling niggas. 0:09:54.280 --> 0:09:55.840 Nigga you tell. 0:09:56.000 --> 0:09:58.360 Don't send it to me, don't send it to me, 0:09:58.760 --> 0:09:59.640 do not send it to me. 0:10:00.120 --> 0:10:00.320 Can't. 0:10:01.160 --> 0:10:03.040 But I also can't lie to you.

I feel like you 0:10:56.880 --> 0:11:02.120 could tell when somebody is on the US and it's 0:11:02.200 --> 0:11:05.440 not just limited to music, it's they've locked in on 0:11:05.480 --> 0:11:08.400 a look, They've locked in on an aesthetic, they've locked 0:11:08.440 --> 0:11:10.679 in on a sound like oh, you onto something here, 0:11:11.200 --> 0:11:14.040 and you can your spidy senses start tingling like, oh 0:11:14.080 --> 0:11:17.200 maybe I can be useful now because you know who 0:11:17.240 --> 0:11:20.320 you are and you have a This is one thing 0:11:20.400 --> 0:11:22.680 that there's many artists that have wanted me to write 0:11:22.679 --> 0:11:25.320 for them, And I'm like, but do you really know 0:11:25.360 --> 0:11:28.800 who you are? Because if you did, you would be 0:11:28.840 --> 0:11:34.120 able to articulate to me yours and your dislikes. You 0:11:34.240 --> 0:11:37.480 might not have. There might not be exactly what you 0:11:37.960 --> 0:11:40.960 and if you're a true artist, what you're searching for 0:11:41.080 --> 0:11:45.880 should not exist yet. There shouldn't be an example. There 0:11:45.880 --> 0:11:49.000 could be things that are very close that you could say, 0:11:49.200 --> 0:11:52.440 if such and such and such a baby, you know, 0:11:52.679 --> 0:11:55.600 like that, But you should be able to tell me 0:11:55.679 --> 0:12:00.080 like acoustic you know, the drums got to hit at always, 0:12:00.120 --> 0:12:02.760 like you should be able to tell me the essence 0:12:02.840 --> 0:12:05.920 or the ingredients of who you are, even if it's 0:12:06.000 --> 0:12:13.920 if it's just sight words like leather, spice, like you know, okay, dark, sensual, okay, 0:12:16.400 --> 0:12:19.560 Because now I can take those things and say, does 0:12:19.600 --> 0:12:21.840 this make me feel? Can I see me in some leather? 0:12:23.000 --> 0:12:26.600 Can I you know what I'm saying? Candles? Okay? Like 0:12:27.240 --> 0:12:31.440 what is the But there are certain things sounds that 0:12:31.520 --> 0:12:37.640 evol you know. But if you just saying ship like edgy, 0:12:38.679 --> 0:12:43.360 like this is an edge? You know what I'm saying? 0:12:43.360 --> 0:12:47.319 Oh you mean cursing? You want to curse that's not edgy. Really, 0:12:47.360 --> 0:12:50.920 that's authentic. I would say, you know, that's how you talk. 0:12:51.559 --> 0:12:55.199 And so I think it's really important when you start 0:12:55.200 --> 0:12:59.199 to see an artist lock in to who they are 0:12:59.679 --> 0:13:02.200 and they start kind of grasping at the edges of 0:13:03.120 --> 0:13:06.200 this person that they want to become and they just 0:13:06.240 --> 0:13:09.720 need your help to mold it. That's one thing. But 0:13:09.760 --> 0:13:13.000 you want to come to me for everything, but you 0:13:13.360 --> 0:13:16.160 need to let that cook a little bit more before 0:13:16.160 --> 0:13:21.840 you come to me. Now, the people sending songs, they're 0:13:21.880 --> 0:13:24.920 just gonna get blocked. Friend or not, I don't care. 0:13:25.000 --> 0:13:27.400 You know, if they're my friend, you know, I tell 0:13:27.440 --> 0:13:31.160 them and I'll you're sending it to me for my opinion. 0:13:32.160 --> 0:13:34.440 You may not like that. Well, if you don't like 0:13:34.480 --> 0:13:36.440 my opinion, it don't send anymore. But if you do 0:13:36.520 --> 0:13:38.640 and you're my friend, I'm still going to give you 0:13:38.640 --> 0:13:40.200 my opinions. 0:13:41.080 --> 0:13:43.480 Sometimes I just don't even find out that they wanted 0:13:43.520 --> 0:13:45.720 to do music. I have to find out, like, why 0:13:45.760 --> 0:13:47.760 you ain't telling me that you was a singer. 0:13:47.640 --> 0:13:50.320 Because they thought she was gonna block them. 0:13:50.840 --> 0:13:51.400 I probably will. 0:13:51.880 --> 0:13:53.480 Was like, yeah, my stuff ain't like her stuff, so 0:13:54.320 --> 0:13:55.920 wait till my stuff gets a little bit more like 0:13:56.000 --> 0:13:57.120 herves before I send it. 0:13:57.880 --> 0:13:59.599 Yeah, no, they don't even be telling me. I'll just 0:13:59.640 --> 0:14:02.680 be fine it at later. Like you a whole singer, 0:14:02.679 --> 0:14:03.240 that's crazy. 0:14:03.280 --> 0:14:06.480 You a whole singer's weird. A lot of half singers 0:14:06.520 --> 0:14:06.760 out here. 0:14:06.840 --> 0:14:15.480 Yeah no, here we go, but you know, speaking and 0:14:15.520 --> 0:14:17.480 half singing. No, I do want to say this. I 0:14:17.480 --> 0:14:20.800 can really sing, right, I know that I can't. I'm 0:14:20.800 --> 0:14:25.320 not asking y'all's opinion. I can't. I don't like that 0:14:26.040 --> 0:14:30.800 on purpose number one, because it's not fun singing like that. 0:14:31.240 --> 0:14:31.880 Maybe it is for. 0:14:31.840 --> 0:14:34.160 You, Well, you got to pick your moments. 0:14:34.720 --> 0:14:37.680 Yeah, but then once you start that, they demand it 0:14:37.680 --> 0:14:40.280 from you all the time. Sometimes I just want to 0:14:40.280 --> 0:14:42.720 have a good time. I don't feel like doing all that. 0:14:43.320 --> 0:14:45.520 I can't wear no high heels if I'm gonna try 0:14:45.520 --> 0:14:47.560 to be singing like you know what I'm saying. I 0:14:47.560 --> 0:14:51.040 can't look cute and have all my stuff being placed. 0:14:51.400 --> 0:14:53.640 You see what fantastic look like when she gets that singing. 0:14:54.760 --> 0:14:56.880 I'm not finna do that. I'm not gonna do that. 0:14:58.120 --> 0:15:02.640 I'm not finna do that because I'm gonna cringe if 0:15:02.760 --> 0:15:05.560 I look back at that, Look at the whole God, 0:15:07.240 --> 0:15:07.680 look at. 0:15:07.560 --> 0:15:10.720 The FUFA, but you have to. 0:15:11.840 --> 0:15:14.640 But I think music is that now, especially for you. 0:15:14.720 --> 0:15:17.880 I don't think. I don't think you sing one way. 0:15:18.080 --> 0:15:20.920 I want to you sing so many different ways. 0:15:23.680 --> 0:15:26.080 Her album don't say that. Her album shows the many 0:15:26.160 --> 0:15:27.400 colors and the many levels. 0:15:27.600 --> 0:15:31.360 But I'm saying it with my performance, with my vocal performance, 0:15:31.880 --> 0:15:34.680 even with the way that I sing and the runs 0:15:34.680 --> 0:15:37.240 that I choose, it's lazy. And I'm just being honest 0:15:37.280 --> 0:15:39.920 with you. I want to get on stage. 0:15:39.800 --> 0:15:42.720 Your I wouldn't. I wouldn't choose lazy. 0:15:43.040 --> 0:15:46.720 But as somebody who can really sing, I could have done. 0:15:46.800 --> 0:15:47.400 Bad word. 0:15:48.000 --> 0:15:51.680 Okay, listen, No, I'm being I'm being so serious, and 0:15:51.680 --> 0:15:54.640 this is a singer. This is a singer's conversation. 0:15:54.800 --> 0:15:56.920 Which is why lazy is a bad word. 0:15:57.200 --> 0:15:59.960 But what I'm saying is I can do the technical thing. 0:16:00.400 --> 0:16:03.640 You are doing the technical things. Hold on, let's cut 0:16:03.640 --> 0:16:07.360 this shit out. You are doing the technical things. They're 0:16:07.400 --> 0:16:09.080 just very easy for you. 0:16:09.960 --> 0:16:13.000 But yes, that's what I'm saying. 0:16:13.760 --> 0:16:18.480 No, they're easy for you as a very gifted singer. Yes, 0:16:18.720 --> 0:16:21.520 So to the people listening to this who are not 0:16:21.600 --> 0:16:24.560 as gifted, not even close to as gifted as you, 0:16:24.560 --> 0:16:26.720 you are you are put it on the white glove 0:16:27.040 --> 0:16:28.720 and you are slapping them in the face. 0:16:30.360 --> 0:16:34.960 Okay, we're giving them seasoning. But I am openly admitting 0:16:35.560 --> 0:16:40.240 I do not try to go there with my vocal 0:16:40.960 --> 0:16:44.520 with how I really could because I don't want that stamp. 0:16:45.000 --> 0:16:49.600 I don't want that burden responsibility. No, I want to 0:16:49.640 --> 0:16:52.880 have fun. So I give you just enough to where 0:16:52.960 --> 0:16:55.720 when I'm singing it live on stage, I can hit 0:16:55.760 --> 0:16:59.480 a little you do, give you a little bit, and 0:16:59.480 --> 0:17:04.200 it's like, wow, did you hear that?
