00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:12,919
Speaker 9: my family and.

52
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:14,440
Speaker 3: How difficult was that getting back on the road, getting

53
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,400
Speaker 3: back on dancing, getting back on How difficult was that?

54
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 4: It really it wasn't.

55
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:22,079
Speaker 9: It really wasn't difficult. It's like, you know, like riding bike.

56
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 9: Once you did it, you done. So it's just you know,

57
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:27,040
Speaker 9: my kids are older, Keisha still has a high school child.

58
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,520
Speaker 9: But so it wasn't hard at all. They're very supportive,

59
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 9: you know. They actually was like, go do it.

60
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:37,200
Speaker 10: By yeah, yeah.

61
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:37,520
Speaker 5: Yeah.

62
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:39,920
Speaker 10: Rehearsals was dope. We had to you know, work it

63
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:42,240
Speaker 10: out a little bit. But like Keema said, it's like

64
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 10: riding a bike. Once you get started.

65
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 7: My vibe is very authentic.

66
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:49,560
Speaker 3: So it's you know, but people went through dancing from

67
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:52,240
Speaker 3: the old videos. If you ain't hitting them them.

68
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:57,640
Speaker 9: Dancing, we danced and we got our box.

69
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,120
Speaker 1: How did y'all find that balance back in the day

70
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:04,359
Speaker 1: between being like sexy was strong, was still street with it, Like,

71
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:05,600
Speaker 1: how did y'all find that balance?

72
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 9: It was just natural, like that's just who we are

73
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 9: growing up Jersey like.

74
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 10: How we were, Yeah, and that's what made us. To me,

75
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:18,520
Speaker 10: that's what made us who we were. Total the name

76
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 10: started out as total opposites because we were all individuals

77
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:25,360
Speaker 10: in our own way, you know. So it was it

78
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:26,919
Speaker 10: wasn't like you had to buy the brand.

79
00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:28,480
Speaker 11: We came as we were.

80
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:32,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, yep. How was the bad Boy ever back then?

81
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 4: Growing up?

82
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:36,240
Speaker 3: Right, because there was a time nineties two thousand it

83
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 3: was nothing but bad Boy in the radio, nothing but

84
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:42,360
Speaker 3: bad Boy on the streets, mixtapes to clubs. How was

85
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 3: that era where just it felt like anything y'all did hit.

86
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 11: It was, it's some beautiful things.

87
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 9: It was fun, it was. That's what we learned a

88
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:53,000
Speaker 9: lot of our grind from that whole era.

89
00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:55,119
Speaker 7: Grinding just out there.

90
00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 11: It was going to the time like it was just fun.

91
00:03:58,680 --> 00:03:59,800
Speaker 11: It was just like a.

92
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:04,559
Speaker 6: Big yep, yeah that's crazy.

93
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 2: Us coming from Atlanta. You know what I'm saying.

94
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:08,120
Speaker 12: It like it was a different it was like a

95
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 12: different culture. So you know, you know, you can imagine

96
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 12: how that felt.

97
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 5: He's coming.

98
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 12: I know, he's from the you know what I'm saying.

99
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,320
Speaker 12: So you're coming to New York culture culture, you know.

100
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 12: So you know, but but it was so much fun

101
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:23,600
Speaker 12: because it was just like, okay, clubs smaller, but you

102
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:25,400
Speaker 12: know what i mean. But it was like in your face,

103
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:27,720
Speaker 12: so you know what I'm saying. So, but we learned

104
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 12: a lot musically here.

105
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:30,560
Speaker 5: M hmm.

106
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:32,839
Speaker 3: What about you for you case now, you weren't on

107
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:35,440
Speaker 3: bad Boy, You're on Death Jam Jam. You a songwriter,

108
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 3: you had you have the I always say, you have

109
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:39,760
Speaker 3: that one wedding song that you will get paid.

110
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 2: For for the rest of your life. Happily ever after, Like.

111
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 3: That was that was coming up for you in that

112
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,200
Speaker 3: and during that time because at that time you were

113
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:51,480
Speaker 3: death Jam. Death Jam was heavy pop, and you was

114
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 3: probably one of the only R and B singers at

115
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:53,400
Speaker 3: the time.

116
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 4: I mean it was.

117
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,239
Speaker 13: It was cool for me, except for the only problem

118
00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:58,800
Speaker 13: that they was learning on the fly how to do

119
00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,040
Speaker 13: R and B and so I caught up in that sometime.

120
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:04,280
Speaker 13: But yeah, I mean, you know how big they was then,

121
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,400
Speaker 13: so that part was cool. It was just a lot

122
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:08,360
Speaker 13: of times they had a lot of hip hop sensibilities

123
00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:10,520
Speaker 13: because it's hip hop labor. But one of the things

124
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:12,960
Speaker 13: that helped me was that I was the last artist

125
00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 13: that Russell personally signed to Death Jail, so I'd always

126
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:18,280
Speaker 13: call him and be like, yo, I can snitch.

127
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:22,160
Speaker 1: The record was gonna be so timeless, like touch me,

128
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:23,839
Speaker 1: tease me happily ever ever.

129
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 13: I didn't know, but that's what I always wanted to

130
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,560
Speaker 13: do like I never wanted to make like trendy stuff.

131
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:30,719
Speaker 13: I always wanted to make music like my parents would

132
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:33,279
Speaker 13: listen to stuff from like twenty thirty years earlier, and

133
00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:35,160
Speaker 13: it would have me doing it. And so my thing

134
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 13: was like, if I could do that, then I'd be

135
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 13: happy and then everything else will fall in line.

136
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:45,159
Speaker 1: You worked with a Mary Jay Beyond Foxy Brown, who else?

158
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:39,640
Speaker 4: So it was a lot of different moments.

159
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 3: I felt like, def Jim didn't treat you like a

160
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 3: regular artist, right with total.

161
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:45,680
Speaker 2: In one twelve.

162
00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:48,240
Speaker 3: I would see them out in the club like bad

163
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:50,160
Speaker 3: Boy would have him Mountain Death Jim artists, Deaf Gym

164
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:52,560
Speaker 3: would have them mount I didn't see you Deaf Jim

165
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 3: put you out as much like that?

166
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:55,040
Speaker 2: Was it because you didn't want.

167
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 1: To go out or probably didn't know what to do

168
00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 1: it because he was R and B.

169
00:06:57,760 --> 00:06:59,480
Speaker 13: I think a lot of it. Yeah, First of all,

170
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:01,520
Speaker 13: I hate going out, okay, So if I didn't have

171
00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:04,120
Speaker 13: to be there, listen, that's why you always be like yo,

172
00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:05,160
Speaker 13: you had a lot of stuff about you.

173
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:08,640
Speaker 4: I know how to be over here.

174
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:11,920
Speaker 13: So yeah, I mean I wasn't really big on going out,

175
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:13,920
Speaker 13: or when I did, it'd be I'd be somewhere else

176
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,760
Speaker 13: unless I had to be somewhere with them.

177
00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:20,840
Speaker 14: Gotcha, did you guys? Well, Mike, I saw you say that.

178
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 14: You feel like, you know, you guys, first album. Without that,

179
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 14: you don't think that R and B would be as

180
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:27,679
Speaker 14: prevalent or as worldwide as it is right now.

181
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:34,360
Speaker 6: Yeah, okay, so yeah, because we felt like we contributed

182
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:36,960
Speaker 6: a lot more than one twelve. You know, we walk

183
00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:39,840
Speaker 6: around with modesty on our shoulders and stuff, and I

184
00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:42,360
Speaker 6: know that that's you know, Huberts to say that while

185
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:45,520
Speaker 6: you're talking about modesty, right, But yeah, we we always

186
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:47,520
Speaker 6: walked around with this this mindset that, man, we'll.

187
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,680
Speaker 5: Let our actions speak for themselves.

188
00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:53,720
Speaker 6: But we would always challenge people like find us because

189
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 6: our niche in the industry was hip hop and R

190
00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:58,920
Speaker 6: and B. We weren't just hip hop artists, I mean

191
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 6: R and B artists. We were hip pop and R

192
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:03,680
Speaker 6: and B artists. So yeah, the mind frame was we

193
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,600
Speaker 6: started that whole trend. It's like the way music sounds now.

194
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:08,440
Speaker 6: One twelve had a lot to do with that because

195
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:12,840
Speaker 6: no one can really give us a group that did

196
00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:15,280
Speaker 6: it the way that we did it before one twelve,

197
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:17,680
Speaker 6: Like as far as singing over hip hop beats and

198
00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:20,160
Speaker 6: stuff like that, Like you I challenged in but find

199
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,000
Speaker 6: me a group that did it, because back then in

200
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:23,320
Speaker 6: the day, what you had the A side and you

201
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:25,240
Speaker 6: had the B side right, and then on the B side,

202
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:27,240
Speaker 6: so the records, right, they had the records, you had

203
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:28,920
Speaker 6: the uptempo records where they were singing, but they were

204
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:34,280
Speaker 6: always all that singing over uptempo beats and stuff. It

205
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 6: was like it was confusing.

206
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:35,720
Speaker 1: Puff.

207
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:37,040
Speaker 5: One one thing that Puff told us.

208
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 6: Was like when you're in the club, when you when

209
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:43,360
Speaker 6: you're recording a record, right, sing the song as if

210
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 6: you're in the club drinking and you're trying to holler

211
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:45,560
Speaker 6: at the girl.

212
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 5: You ain't gonna be in this girl talking about yeah

213
00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:54,160
Speaker 5: you gonna go. I want to be with you else,

214
00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:56,200
Speaker 5: you know what I mean. It's gonna be something smoothing.

215
00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:58,640
Speaker 6: So when we wrote records, when we wrote the uptimbo

216
00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:01,280
Speaker 6: records and then Slim having the voice being able to

217
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:02,920
Speaker 6: just lay on the tracks the way that we did,

218
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:06,120
Speaker 6: like that started an hold ever where people now like

219
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:08,520
Speaker 6: when you hear R and B, it has a hip

220
00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:09,320
Speaker 6: hop element to.

221
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:11,439
Speaker 5: It as well. It's not just R and B. It's

222
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:12,680
Speaker 5: a hip hop element isn't that.

223
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:14,679
Speaker 1: A bad boy formula or wasn't that Diddy? Like I

224
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:16,920
Speaker 1: feel like Diddy did that like with Jodysie. I feel

225
00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 1: like he did that with Mary j Blige, like he

226
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:19,640
Speaker 1: did that with Total.

227
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:20,240
Speaker 5: I'll give you that.

228
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:23,360
Speaker 6: I'll give you Mary j Blige because yeah, she she helped,

229
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:26,000
Speaker 6: uh because we always say that Mary is between Mary

230
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:28,400
Speaker 6: and one twelve, but one twelve really and then yeah, puff,

231
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:30,360
Speaker 6: did you know he did contribute because we came in

232
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:32,400
Speaker 6: with just we are and B we aren't b bro, like,

233
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:34,400
Speaker 6: forget all that stuff man like hip hop that's gonna

234
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:36,680
Speaker 6: cheapen our sound and all this sudden stuff. And he's

235
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 6: had the vision was like, Yo, this is what's gonna

236
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 6: separate y'all from the Drew Hills, from the Jaggets, from

237
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:44,560
Speaker 6: the you know, the Ajets and all these other groups

238
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:45,800
Speaker 6: that were coming out at the same time.

239
00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 8: And you know what that that didn't make perfect sense

240
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,160
Speaker 8: right instead of all I would love a nigga to

241
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:51,439
Speaker 8: come up to me and class, let.

242
00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:58,040
Speaker 2: Me tell you what exactly.

243
00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:01,199
Speaker 5: That's exactly what it was, because nine times out of

244
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 5: ten ain't gonna be able to sing.

245
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 6: So he's like, bro, all of that in my ear,

246
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:05,200
Speaker 6: like I don't want to hear all that, you know,

247
00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:06,280
Speaker 6: so that.

248
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,800
Speaker 1: You agree with Mike's assessment. Not to start any arguments here,

249
00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:10,080
Speaker 1: but the case, do you agree with that?

250
00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean it was, it was part of it.

251
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 13: I mean that during that era, but that's when hip

252
00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:18,640
Speaker 13: hop and R and B was Yeah, yeah, pretty much, and.

253
00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:20,280
Speaker 1: I feel like bad Boy was at the forefront of.

254
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:24,000
Speaker 10: Yeah, definitely, yeah, because Total was hip hop with that

255
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:26,320
Speaker 10: touch of R and B. R and B group, but

256
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,600
Speaker 10: I think we were more base hip hop with the

257
00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:30,960
Speaker 10: touch of R and B, and Mary definitely was the

258
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:33,000
Speaker 10: pioneer of that sound.

259
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:34,640
Speaker 7: And Total, you guys are some of the I'm sorry,

260
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:35,440
Speaker 7: go ahead shout out.

261
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:36,560
Speaker 11: To No no no.

262
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:38,280
Speaker 10: I was just gonna say when he when Puff did

263
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,920
Speaker 10: the remixes with Jodasy, because Jodasy was just.

264
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 11: The R and B and then he brought the hip

265
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:43,719
Speaker 11: hop elementary.

266
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:46,600
Speaker 1: Ghost facing Ray Kuon on the Freaking You remix, you know,

Speaker 1: I was, I mean.

272
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:05,319

Speaker 2: the first one y'all recorded?

315
00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:02,320
Speaker 10: Well, we recorded songs that never went anywhere because we

316
00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:04,240
Speaker 10: were just trying to find our sound. But can't you

317
00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:05,480
Speaker 10: no Juicy.

318
00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:08,679
Speaker 3: Juicy Juicy was the first record I did and I

319
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:12,720
Speaker 3: was working with Biggie Amazing. You gotta break it down,

320
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:14,679
Speaker 3: both songs, Juicy and the Can't you.

321
00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:17,679
Speaker 9: See The story behind how we wind up recording Juicy

322
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:20,199
Speaker 9: is like Big was like our little big brother.

323
00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:22,280
Speaker 11: Like we were close with Big, so.

324
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:25,720
Speaker 9: We would frequently be in New York hanging out in

325
00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:27,319
Speaker 9: the studio with him. So he called this one day.

326
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:28,800
Speaker 9: He was like, come to the city we was in.

327
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,000
Speaker 9: He was in the studio. So we went to the

328
00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:34,800
Speaker 9: studio and he was playing Juicy. Keisha started humming something.

329
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:36,680
Speaker 9: Big he was like, y'all should go in there and

330
00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:38,640
Speaker 9: put that down. So he, you know, just gave us

331
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:40,720
Speaker 9: some words or whatever, and we went in there and

332
00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:43,560
Speaker 9: we put it down, and Puff had us come back

333
00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:45,839
Speaker 9: the next day and do the one More Chance songs.

334
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:54,880
Speaker 9: So that's how it started. Juicy, Yeah, original one more Chance,

335
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:56,880
Speaker 9: the one on the album is different from the.

336
00:13:58,400 --> 00:13:59,440
Speaker 2: With the voicemail in the front.

337
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:01,840
Speaker 11: Need to work on that Juicy.

338
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:04,640
Speaker 9: It says it now when you google it. But I

339
00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 9: assume that it wasn't necessarily supposed to have been a

340
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:09,920
Speaker 9: feature for me because it was his first single and

341
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:10,440
Speaker 9: stuff like that.

342
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:13,400
Speaker 11: So yeah, and I think, you know, we were new.

343
00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:16,200
Speaker 9: I don't think it was something that just happened, like

344
00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:17,680
Speaker 9: we were in the studio and we got in trouble.

345
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:19,600
Speaker 9: It was our maners like, don't do that no more.

346
00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:22,400
Speaker 9: But I just think they didn't plan for it to

347
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:25,280
Speaker 9: be Biggie's first album to have a feature on it.

348
00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:27,000
Speaker 2: Did y'all get writing cres for it? No?

349
00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:29,360
Speaker 11: No, because Big wrote it right.

350
00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:33,560
Speaker 1: I didn't know y'all was on Juicy Alom and we

351
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 1: know those records more chance Dirty version is like one

352
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:37,880
Speaker 1: of my favorite records.

353
00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:42,680
Speaker 2: Wow, and can't you see why can't you see it

354
00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:43,160
Speaker 2: come together?

355
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:46,720
Speaker 10: We just came to the studio and the track was

356
00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:49,720
Speaker 10: playing and we were like, oh snap.

357
00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 11: And then Terry Robinson Terry what was the group that

358
00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:54,440
Speaker 11: Terry was?

359
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:55,480
Speaker 7: The girls?

360
00:14:55,840 --> 00:15:00,560
Speaker 10: Terry Robinson's so incredible as far as songwriting, and she came.

361
00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:03,160
Speaker 10: She was like, this is this is what it is? Okay,

362
00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 10: verse I like that verse. She liked that verse, like

363
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:09,600
Speaker 10: that verse. We went recorded it and it was what

364
00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 10: it was it. No, No, Big wasn't on it.

365
00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:14,280
Speaker 7: He was a studio.

366
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:15,960
Speaker 11: He was in the studio and then he came in

367
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,000
Speaker 11: and laid it down. It's crazy.

368
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:19,160
Speaker 5: Wow, that's crazy.

369
00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:19,400
Speaker 1: Yeah.

370
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:21,080
Speaker 14: I was gonna ask when you say we got to

371
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:22,840
Speaker 14: work on it, you can go back and make sure

372
00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:25,360
Speaker 14: that you guys are credited on the song now, even

373
00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:29,040
Speaker 14: though like it's been listed ways to certain how that.

374
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:31,920
Speaker 10: Works because I think I think Pam was able to

375
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:34,880
Speaker 10: do that with Hypnotized.

376
00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:38,760
Speaker 9: So and then we get our sounded, we get we

377
00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:41,320
Speaker 9: can performance royalties for it, like our sound Exchange and

378
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:44,440
Speaker 9: stuff like that, and it has gotten updated. We had

379
00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:46,640
Speaker 9: it updated on the internet. So now if you look

380
00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:49,600
Speaker 9: it up, it does say feature in total. But it

381
00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 9: just didn't go out like that.

382
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:53,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, crazy a lot.

383
00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:59,280
Speaker 11: Of y'all, can't, you know.

384
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:03,320
Speaker 8: I just I just never like realized that it didn't

385
00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:07,880
Speaker 8: say featuring. Right, your voice is definitely y'all.

386
00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:11,080
Speaker 1: Know, y'all know the question did y'all enjoy the moment

387
00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:12,880
Speaker 1: of the nineties, Because when I look at y'all, it's

388
00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:16,280
Speaker 1: like y'all are like mythical figures to me, right, Like

389
00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:18,960
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, because y'all defined not just

390
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:22,200
Speaker 1: the genre, but like y'all would have soundtrackted our lives.

391
00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:24,920
Speaker 1: Did y'all enjoy the moment? Yes?

392
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:36,440
Speaker 6: Yeah, when they said boy was in the building road, it.

393
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:37,640
Speaker 10: Was when we were on a high. I mean, you

394
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:40,080
Speaker 10: couldn't ask for a better label. You know, and a

395
00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:43,280
Speaker 10: place to be and especially like aspiring artists when this

396
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:46,600
Speaker 10: is something that you dream of doing to land on

397
00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:49,200
Speaker 10: bad Boy and I do. We remember the time clearly

398
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:53,400
Speaker 10: when bad Boy was everywhere. It was nothing to just

399
00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:56,960
Speaker 10: walk in the club or walk anywhere and just get.

400
00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:58,680
Speaker 11: That love, admiration and respect.

401
00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:02,280
Speaker 6: Like it was whether they world wearing black leather, you know,

402
00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:05,520

Speaker 10: Movement and we loved each other, yeah, and each other.

407
00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:20,480
Speaker 5: A lot of ways.

408
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:24,840
Speaker 6: How the record got together, like like we tell the

409
00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:27,359
Speaker 6: story of how we we were on Big. Like if

410
00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:30,439
Speaker 6: you look at listen to Life After Death, right one,

411
00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:32,760
Speaker 6: twelve is all like Big he shouts us out throughout

412
00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:35,119
Speaker 6: the whole album. That's because we were in the studio

413
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:38,160
Speaker 6: with him. Like so Daddy's house had the Neve, the

414
00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:40,120
Speaker 6: S s L and the in the pre production room.

415
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:42,400
Speaker 5: Right, so twelve is in the pre production room.

416
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:46,679
Speaker 6: Junior Mafia, Big is all in the neve room. Seeds

417
00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:50,200
Speaker 6: come out and says yo, big one child. So we

418
00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:53,080
Speaker 6: go in there. From here up we smoked, right, so

419
00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:55,480
Speaker 6: we can't see where nobody's interest.

420
00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:56,760
Speaker 5: So we filled around.

421
00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:59,159
Speaker 6: So Big is just sitting there right, and and we

422
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:00,760
Speaker 6: use this all that we he used the word genius.

423
00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:02,760
Speaker 6: We throw the word genius out a lot, but this

424
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:04,600
Speaker 6: is true definition of genius.

425
00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:04,840
Speaker 2: Right.

426
00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:08,879
Speaker 5: So we're walking in Big Cus. He said, Yo, what up?

427
00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:09,840
Speaker 5: And that's it.

428
00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:12,240
Speaker 6: He says, nothing else, right, So everybody else, Junior Mafia,

429
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:15,239
Speaker 6: they're moving around, everybody's laughing, everybody's smoking, having a good time,

430
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:16,040
Speaker 6: everybody's drinking.

431
00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:17,040
Speaker 5: You know, twelve we.

432
00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:20,520
Speaker 6: Baked out our minds because we don't smoke.

433
00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:22,400
Speaker 5: We baked right.

434
00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:24,879
Speaker 6: So around two three hours later, Big it's like, yo,

435
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:27,639
Speaker 6: I'm ready, and the engineers like ready for what? So

Speaker 5: Big and Faith to the only two I've ever seen.

457
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:23,440
Speaker 8: I got a story to tell, just straight came to

458
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:25,760
Speaker 8: him and he went at hearing story.

459
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:30,800
Speaker 6: He's watching everybody tell their story like and heated.

460
00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:32,240
Speaker 1: Perfect.

461
00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,560
Speaker 5: Bro kind of say the hell out of that record?

463
00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:41,600
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, right down there.

464
00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:44,040
Speaker 7: That is a gift for sure.

465
00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:45,960
Speaker 1: But back in the day, it's like R and B

466
00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:48,639
Speaker 1: used to celebrate like love and heartbreak. But now like

467
00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:52,840
Speaker 1: it feels transactional. What do you think made vulnerability cool

468
00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:53,280
Speaker 1: back then?

469
00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:57,359
Speaker 12: Well, you know, I just think that it was a time.

470
00:19:57,480 --> 00:19:59,280
Speaker 12: It was just a time period where you know, where

471
00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:02,680
Speaker 12: everything was going in the world. We used music as

472
00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:05,520
Speaker 12: our getaway. It was our medicine. You know what I'm saying.

473
00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:08,639
Speaker 12: Anybody remember the nineties when we came to the club,

474
00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:12,080
Speaker 12: and we came anywhere. Everybody came to party, to dance.

475
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:12,520
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.

476
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:15,520
Speaker 12: You know, now you're going you go into places. I

477
00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:17,520
Speaker 12: don't know how it is too much here in New

478
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:20,840
Speaker 12: York as much, but I know in Atlanta everybody's staring

479
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:23,720
Speaker 12: at each other everywhere there on the phone, you know,

480
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 12: and it's like it's a different type of a feel.

481
00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:28,840
Speaker 5: So you know, so.

482
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:33,240
Speaker 3: It's homecoming if it's homecoming, and okay, that's true, but

483
00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:34,000
Speaker 3: regular clubs.

484
00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:37,040
Speaker 12: But even when you say that, you know, the alumni

485
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,960
Speaker 12: us cranking it up, you know what I'm saying.

486
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,000
Speaker 2: So you know, yeah, back.

487
00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:45,240
Speaker 5: Then R and B was kind of it was more hyperbolic,

488
00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:46,040
Speaker 5: you know what I mean. It was.

489
00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:48,840
Speaker 6: It was, you know, good damn will. We're not climbing,

490
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:51,240
Speaker 6: no highest mountain, swimming, no deeper sea, but we gave

491
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:57,920
Speaker 6: you we're not doing all of that, but we gave

492
00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:00,600
Speaker 6: you the impression we sung it and maybe believe that

493
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:03,920
Speaker 6: that that was possible. Anything was possible in there. And nowadays, man,

494
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 6: it's just it's different.

495
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:08,399
Speaker 11: The music is too, and we came from good music

496
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:09,119
Speaker 11: from my parents.

497
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:11,119
Speaker 4: That's what I was about to say.

498
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,040
Speaker 13: I think the other thing that did it was hip

499
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:18,280
Speaker 13: hop became more hyperbolic.

500
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:19,800
Speaker 4: Definitely a good word for that.

501
00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:22,359
Speaker 13: But when it merged with R and B so much,

502
00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:25,200
Speaker 13: it became not cool to have feelings. But I guess

503
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,720
Speaker 13: that's how people felt. And then the strip cup club

504
00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:30,600
Speaker 13: culture got involved. When it's everything is that And I

505
00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:32,600
Speaker 13: always say that, like with everything that's going on in

506
00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:35,040
Speaker 13: the world and people's lives, you gotta be able to

507
00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:37,400
Speaker 13: sing about something more than threesomes in the strip clubs,

508
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:40,240
Speaker 13: something else going on, what I'm saying, And nobody really

509
00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:42,480
Speaker 13: does that. Well, I won't say nobody, but a lot

510
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:44,040
Speaker 13: of the music doesn't have that no more. They don't

511
00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:46,240
Speaker 13: have the feelings, that don't have the vulnerability. Like you said,

512
00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:48,240
Speaker 13: it's all trying to.

513
00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:50,600
Speaker 5: Be rappers, basically, all the things trying to be.

514
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:53,159
Speaker 4: And a lot of that technology so.

515
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:55,399
Speaker 1: Crazy because even the rappers back then, most of the

516
00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:57,760
Speaker 1: rappers back then, we loved him because they were vulnerable.

517
00:21:57,760 --> 00:21:59,360
Speaker 1: You love Pot because he was vulnerable, You love Big

518
00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:01,000
Speaker 1: he was vulnerab Kanye because.

519
00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:01,720
Speaker 4: He was because vulnerable.

520
00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:04,400
Speaker 5: You can't be vulnerable.

521
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:05,800
Speaker 1: You were so vulnerable.

522
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,080
Speaker 8: At the end of I Think It's Missing You, you

523
00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:09,399
Speaker 8: said I can't sing no more.

524
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:16,560
Speaker 4: I was fighting for my life, for my life singing

525
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:17,000
Speaker 4: that song.

526
00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:19,800
Speaker 7: And I was all day listen. So when you said

527
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:21,160
Speaker 7: I can't sing the more, you.

528
00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:23,720
Speaker 4: Really couldn't or he was no, I was sick. You

529
00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:24,600
Speaker 4: were yeah.

530
00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:27,080
Speaker 13: And when I got there, what happened was I went

531
00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:30,199
Speaker 13: to La on Monday to do Missing You. We're supposed

532
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:32,080
Speaker 13: to do it on Tuesday. I don't know what happened.

533
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:34,280
Speaker 13: My voice went out, so I spent all day Tuesday

534
00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:37,800
Speaker 13: Wednesday trying to get it back, and Thursday it came back.

535
00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:40,320
Speaker 4: So what did I do. I went hanging out with

536
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:41,840
Speaker 4: Jah and so.

537
00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:45,080
Speaker 13: I went to the club and then that night we

538
00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:47,720
Speaker 13: did living it up. Then it left again the next

539
00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:49,640
Speaker 13: day because I was out all night. So it got

540
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:51,200
Speaker 13: to Friday. It was like, we don't do it today,

541
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:53,840
Speaker 13: we can't do it. So I went in there. I

542
00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:56,200
Speaker 13: was drinking stuff all day, wouldn't come back. Got to

543
00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 13: his studios like he can't sing or talk, so he's like,

544
00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:00,800
Speaker 13: can you try right, I'm like all right, So I

545
00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:02,439
Speaker 13: went there once he said keep you do it one

546
00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:04,720
Speaker 13: more time. And I got to the end and I

547
00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:07,439
Speaker 13: felt it going. I'm like, and then I said, I

548
00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:09,360
Speaker 13: can't sing nobody want to say it, so I sang

549
00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:11,520
Speaker 13: it that. I'm like, I'm knocking on the glass and I.

550
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:22,480
Speaker 2: Know that that was it.

551
00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:22,960
Speaker 9: That was it.

552
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:25,920
Speaker 4: Went, and I'm knocking the mind.

553
00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:27,679
Speaker 13: That's why they sing nothing else. I came out and

554
00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:28,639
Speaker 13: tapped them on the shoulder.

555
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:30,600
Speaker 4: I'm like, and that was I just.

556
00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:34,119
Speaker 7: Literally thought, you missed her so much that you can't now.

557
00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:36,720
Speaker 4: I was fighting for my life and then what crazy

558
00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:37,320
Speaker 4: thing about that?

559
00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:42,160
Speaker 13: I got nominated for Grammy.

560
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:44,520
Speaker 4: But that's the craziest part. They nominated for Grammys for

561
00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:46,840
Speaker 4: both them songs Amazing, which was crazy.

562
00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:47,520
Speaker 1: Man.

563
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:49,120
Speaker 4: I was fighting that night.

564
00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:50,240
Speaker 7: Yeah.

565
00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:54,040
Speaker 1: How do how do y'all balance egos? You know? You know,

566
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,800
Speaker 1: when you're dealing with three legendary acts who all had

567
00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:58,879
Speaker 1: their individual moment, you know.

568
00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:04,320
Speaker 6: Gratitude, it's it's a respect level, you know what I mean.

569
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:10,000
Speaker 6: It's like because I'm I'm actually fans. Yeah, actually I

570
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:12,119
Speaker 6: love that, And I know it sounds cliche with it,

571
00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:15,000
Speaker 6: but it's the truth. And you know, we we so

572
00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:17,280
Speaker 6: often we don't tell the truth, you know, we're getting

573
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,919
Speaker 6: this type or form or whatever, but we are genuinely

574
00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:22,760
Speaker 6: like total was our first pick to be on this

575
00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:25,280
Speaker 6: Room one twelve tour. Case was our first pick to

576
00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:27,840
Speaker 6: be on this because in Case his catalog, we just

577
00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:32,359
Speaker 6: spoke about his catalog ridiculous, total, ridiculous, one twelve ridiculous,

578
00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:35,280
Speaker 6: And we wanted to bring back that nineties nostalgia, you know,

579
00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:37,520
Speaker 6: and just bring back that whole era of I knew

580
00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:39,159
Speaker 6: where I was when I heard only You for the

581
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:41,440
Speaker 6: first time. You know, I knew where I was when

582
00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:43,639
Speaker 6: I heard Cupid, when I heard I'm Missing You, and

583
00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:45,640
Speaker 6: when I heard can't you see for the first time,

584
00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:48,520
Speaker 6: Like I remember where I was when I heard these was.

585
00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:54,000
Speaker 7: To be where I was, you know.

586
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:57,200
Speaker 13: I think that ego is healthy on a tour, especially

587
00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 13: like this, because you have to if you use it

588
00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:02,440
Speaker 13: the right way. Like for me, it's like, Okay, I'm

589
00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:04,920
Speaker 13: gonna try to kill everybody. They're gonna feel the same,

590
00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:07,200
Speaker 13: and then the fans the one that win, as opposed

591
00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:08,440
Speaker 13: to people who just go up there and don't care,

592
00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:09,679
Speaker 13: like I just got to.

593
00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:12,719
Speaker 10: We come from that, you got you got come from that, right,

594
00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:16,760
Speaker 10: We come from that came our tour and were like, yeah, totally.

595
00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:20,520
Speaker 10: When twelve just killed, y'all got Okay, that's.

596
00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:24,920
Speaker 4: How you gotta do it. And that's that's the because

597
00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:26,160
Speaker 4: the only people that win is the fans.

598
00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 2: Was there ever a low time for y'all?

599
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:31,879
Speaker 3: Because I feel like my daughter's twenty four and she

600
00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:33,680
Speaker 3: loves nineties music more than anything.

601
00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:35,160
Speaker 2: R It's probably because dad plays it in the house.

602
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:36,840
Speaker 2: Mom and Dad played in the house. But I just

603
00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:38,720
Speaker 2: I feel like, was there a low time?

604
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:40,679
Speaker 3: And then I feel like nineties just came back and

605
00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:43,280
Speaker 3: is stronger than even this year is like.

606
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:45,760
Speaker 2: This decade's music. Was it ever a low time for y'all?

607
00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:49,119
Speaker 5: Yeah, Yeah, it definitely was.

608
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:51,919
Speaker 6: I think for us, the resurgence of the nineties, you know,

609
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 6: was was something that was what we appreciated more than anything,

610
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,320
Speaker 6: and that happened about what maybe almost like six seven

611
00:25:57,400 --> 00:25:57,760
Speaker 6: years ago.

612
00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:01,640
Speaker 2: It was like what the pandemic around that you.

613
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:05,320
Speaker 12: Didn't know when you didn't know what the state of

614
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:08,040
Speaker 12: music and how the industry and how we were going

615
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:12,680
Speaker 12: to perform was going to be. Remember, everybody started experimenting

616
00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:17,359
Speaker 12: with the whole you know, taping, you know, and then video.

617
00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:19,840
Speaker 12: It was just, yeah, I thought we were going to

618
00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:23,040
Speaker 12: just it's going to be that you know, so so

619
00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:25,440
Speaker 12: much gratitude now to you know what I mean, see

620
00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:28,320
Speaker 12: it for where it is, and and we feel like

621
00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:32,240
Speaker 12: it's a blessing that of all the errors they chose

622
00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:35,760
Speaker 12: to pick, they picked the nineties, you know what I'm saying,

623
00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:37,040
Speaker 12: So thank you.

624
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:38,879
Speaker 1: I would want to go back, just I really want

625
00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:39,640
Speaker 1: to experience it in New.

626
00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:43,720
Speaker 7: York, like left at Me.

627
00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:48,720
Speaker 14: I think that one time you left at Me. I

628
00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:51,760
Speaker 14: just feel like the time that you guys were like

629
00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:54,320
Speaker 14: like the top, it was such a good time here.

630
00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:57,000
Speaker 14: It doesn't seem real, like when we hear the stories

631
00:26:57,080 --> 00:27:01,879
Speaker 14: or like I y'all talk about just walking in the studio,

632
00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:04,280
Speaker 14: Big Biggie's just there and like, you know, I can't

633
00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:07,680
Speaker 14: imagine I'm young and just being like on top.

634
00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:10,040
Speaker 7: Yeah, like in that time, but.

635
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:12,560
Speaker 6: You're working so hard that you don't even realize it,

636
00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:14,240
Speaker 6: you know what I mean, Like you don't even realize

637
00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:17,199
Speaker 6: what it took us to step away from it, you know.

638
00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:19,720
Speaker 6: And and okay, we can use it as our downtime,

639
00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:22,119
Speaker 6: you know, and say that that was the time for

640
00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:24,480
Speaker 6: us to go back and look at it and say, man,

641
00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:27,040
Speaker 6: we we did more than just seeing you know, we

642
00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:31,240
Speaker 6: contributed to a culture like we we are part of history.

643
00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:31,159
Speaker 5: You know.

644
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:32,560
Speaker 1: Culture.

645
00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:35,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, so that was amazing.

646
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:37,360
Speaker 6: It's looking at it now being older, like you're looking

647
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:39,440
Speaker 6: at it now because my kids now they're they're going

648
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:41,879
Speaker 6: back and they googling like dad, y'all, y'all the pieces

649
00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:48,639
Speaker 6: of the green the video. My kid, no, because I

650
00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:51,439
Speaker 6: don't go around I don't. I don't go around here looking, you.

651
00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:52,640
Speaker 5: Know, I don't. I don't do that.

652
00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:56,520
Speaker 6: You know, like they just they they grew up as

653
00:27:56,560 --> 00:28:00,320
Speaker 6: normal as I I hoped I could because I could

654
00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:04,240
Speaker 6: teach them to be because it's such a mental strain

655
00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:05,760
Speaker 6: that the industry takes.

656
00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:06,680
Speaker 5: Like it gives, but.

657
00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:09,560
Speaker 6: It also takes. One of the things is, you know,

658
00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:14,440
Speaker 6: the lack of you know, the mental health that comes along.

659
00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:16,800
Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying with that, because you're you're

660
00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:19,320
Speaker 6: inundated with all of this. You know, you have to

661
00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:22,280
Speaker 6: be perfect every time you see you're out, you all,

662
00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:24,560
Speaker 6: your face has always got to be right, your clothes

663
00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:25,480
Speaker 6: gotta always be right.

664
00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:28,399
Speaker 5: Or man, they don't fell off, bro Like I just

665
00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:29,399
Speaker 5: came from the jail, you know.

666
00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:34,000
Speaker 3: But I think the cameras up the camera messed it

667
00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:35,359
Speaker 3: up because when like, the reason I.

668
00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:37,720
Speaker 2: Asked if he was out is I would see everybody

669
00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:38,080
Speaker 2: out right.

670
00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:40,320
Speaker 3: I was a kid growing up, so I would go

671
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:42,080
Speaker 3: to grass Tom and see y'all one hundred twenty fifth

672
00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:44,080
Speaker 3: stri I would go to the tunnel and see y'all

673
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:45,520
Speaker 3: in the tunnel and different things. And there was no

674
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:51,120
Speaker 3: VIP area. That's what it was, and it gave you

675
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:52,880
Speaker 3: a connection with the artist. But there was no phone,

676
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:54,360
Speaker 3: so it was no I'm taking a picture.

677
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:55,280
Speaker 4: It was no.

678
00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:57,120
Speaker 2: I mean, the only thing that you would.

679
00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:59,040
Speaker 3: Possibly do if you want, and nobody want to look corny,

680
00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:00,840
Speaker 3: but you might ask for an order, but nobody wanted

681
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:01,240
Speaker 3: to come to.

682
00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:04,280
Speaker 2: Club and do that. So it gave you at the moment,

683
00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:06,000
Speaker 2: and I feel like people are not enjoying the moment

684
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:09,760
Speaker 2: to the micro and everybody.

685
00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:10,880
Speaker 13: Had I hate when you come out on stage and

686
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:13,920
Speaker 13: everybody got a phone. I'm like, it's happening right here

687
00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:16,720
Speaker 13: in front of you, and then for me anyway, I

688
00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:18,560
Speaker 13: don't think that because I think part of when you

689
00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:21,080
Speaker 13: perform is the it's how it sounds, is how it looks,

690
00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:23,040
Speaker 13: but it's the energy in the room and you can

691
00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:24,880
Speaker 13: never if you go back and watch that, you're not

692
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:26,800
Speaker 13: going to get that energy. The energy is right there

693
00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:29,160
Speaker 13: in front of you. Like for me, I would maybe

694
00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:31,040
Speaker 13: take a picture, quick video, then I would put my

695
00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:33,600
Speaker 13: phone down. I went to see Stevie Wonder. I ain't

696
00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:36,320
Speaker 13: even take a picture. I sat there because there's an

697
00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:38,080
Speaker 13: energy that goes with it. I think a lot of

698
00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:40,600
Speaker 13: people miss that because you're like this and I'm like, yo,

699
00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:42,040
Speaker 13: it's right in front of you. If you put the

700
00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:45,200
Speaker 13: phone down, it's happening right there. Because you got to

701
00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:49,400
Speaker 13: watch the phone to see if you got the singing

702
00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:50,040
Speaker 13: off key.

703
00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:51,800
Speaker 4: And so I'm like, am I'm messing up? When I

704
00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:53,120
Speaker 4: see the videos, I'm like you, no, that's.

705
00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:57,160
Speaker 13: I'm like, hold on, did I just ain't No way,

706
00:29:57,200 --> 00:29:59,240
Speaker 13: I just did that.

707
00:29:58,240 --> 00:29:59,600
Speaker 1: I did that.

708
00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:03,880
Speaker 10: I'm like, man, I'm like, I've never went live ever,

709
00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:08,480
Speaker 10: went live on Instagram and I wasn't expecting this. Beyonce

710
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:11,720
Speaker 10: came out and she just started speaking, I'm all live.

711
00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:14,240
Speaker 10: I'm like, I'm on live, y'all as b and she

712
00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:17,120
Speaker 10: started speaking and I started crying. I was not expecting.

713
00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:19,360
Speaker 10: I was like, Okay, Gods, I gotta go. Literally, I

714
00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:22,600
Speaker 10: might have been filming for like ten seconds. You gotta

715
00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:25,200
Speaker 10: be in a moment because it's an experience, you know

716
00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:25,600
Speaker 10: what I mean?

717
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:27,959
Speaker 4: Watching it is, No, it's not.

718
00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:30,160
Speaker 1: I wanted to ask you, Kim, what was your household

719
00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:32,479
Speaker 1: like growing up? Because I got four daughters, and you know,

720
00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:34,400
Speaker 1: a couple of them express wanting to be in the arts.

721
00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:37,800
Speaker 1: You and your sister Vita, y'all actually made it happen

722
00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:40,040
Speaker 1: with your parents pushing y'all to both be in the industry.

723
00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:41,400
Speaker 4: What was no.

724
00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:47,880
Speaker 9: God's plan? Vita was always a lot more outgoing than me,

725
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:52,480
Speaker 9: so it wasn't surprising for me that she got into it. No,

726
00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:58,120
Speaker 9: like my mama had us in church. You know, my

727
00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:02,360
Speaker 9: mom was what's a struggle for her? So like I know,

728
00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:05,320
Speaker 9: for me, all I wanted to do was just be successful.

729
00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:07,720
Speaker 9: I wind up singing. We sung in the choir and

730
00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:09,160
Speaker 9: stuff like that. But I wind up being in a

731
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:13,800
Speaker 9: group and entertaining the industry through Keisha. When we became friends,

732
00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:15,720
Speaker 9: she heard me sing, but it was just something that

733
00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:18,840
Speaker 9: we just always did. My mom sung back up for Ritha.

734
00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:22,760
Speaker 9: Franklin grew up in that era, but it was pretty

735
00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:23,440
Speaker 9: normal at home.

736
00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:26,960
Speaker 7: Like I really honestly didn't.

737
00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:28,720
Speaker 9: Have time to dream because I was so busy trying

738
00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 9: to figure out, Okay, how I'm gonna help my mom

739
00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:35,840
Speaker 9: like I needed to work, So you know that was

740
00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:40,080
Speaker 9: my plan as soon as I was old enough. So Nope,

741
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:42,600
Speaker 9: she didn't push us. She supported us like she was

742
00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:45,120
Speaker 9: our number one fan, but she didn't push us to

743
00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:51,320
Speaker 9: be into it being an Missy Elliott. Oh, Missy tovey

744
00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:53,680
Speaker 9: that she had a rap voice and be don't stop rapping.

745
00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:57,520
Speaker 1: So this is just when y'all did What About Us?

746
00:31:57,520 --> 00:31:58,480
Speaker 1: So I was it around this time?

747
00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:03,440
Speaker 9: Well, yeah, like Missy, we had met Missy before she

748
00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:05,760
Speaker 9: started writing What About Us and stuff like cause, like

749
00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:08,480
Speaker 9: you said, everybody kind of hung around each other.

750
00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:10,400
Speaker 2: So Missy we became for a while too.

751
00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:13,440
Speaker 9: We became Missy and I was really close at one

752
00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:15,520
Speaker 9: time and she was out my house at Jersey and

753
00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:17,480
Speaker 9: her Vita talking and she told Vito you should rap

754
00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:18,800
Speaker 9: Beta started rapping.

755
00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:21,840
Speaker 6: Wow, got a story for that too. So Missy used

756
00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:24,040
Speaker 6: to hang out at Daddy's house all the time. Yeah,

757
00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:26,040
Speaker 6: and so she was like, yo, puff, I want to

758
00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:27,960
Speaker 6: get on this record there. So we wrote a record

759
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:32,360
Speaker 6: for Geena Thompson. We wrote that right Missy came in.

760
00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:33,920
Speaker 6: She was like, yo, I need to get on this jone,

761
00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:35,480
Speaker 6: I need to get on it. And then that's the

762
00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:36,720
Speaker 6: first time you heard her do the.

763
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:41,360
Speaker 5: The record. That was the first time that you know,

764
00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:42,080
Speaker 5: she was in Sister.

765
00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:44,200
Speaker 6: She was in the Girl Sister at that point, but

766
00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:45,600
Speaker 6: she had came up and she was like, Yo, I

Speaker 5: So she was just all the time.

770
00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:52,680
Speaker 6: She was just in Daddy's house, man, And that was

771
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:55,200
Speaker 6: the energy that was around bad boys, Like we were
