10
00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:46,120
Speaker 1: talking about before you came in here. Um, so you

11
00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:48,680
Speaker 1: have a fourteen year old daughter, right, Yes, and that's

12
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:51,199
Speaker 1: the only girl you have? Yes, all right, So we

13
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:52,839
Speaker 1: did want to start this off by giving you some

14
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:56,160
Speaker 1: tips about how girls are different than boys when it

15
00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:59,720
Speaker 1: comes to raising them. Are you nervous like having a

16
00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 1: through it making you I'd like to drink something good

17
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,440
Speaker 1: having a girl different than two boys? Yeah, Like I

18
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:09,240
Speaker 1: just was thinking about because I have an older brother,

19
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:14,440
Speaker 1: and I think I probably was more challenging, yes, a

20
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:17,480
Speaker 1: thousand percent when it came to my parents, and like

21
00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:19,320
Speaker 1: how difficult I was. I feel like I was a

22
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:22,039
Speaker 1: lot more rebellious than he was. But is that because

23
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 1: you're younger. Yeah, I'm younger. Yeah, and she's younger too,

24
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 1: like she's younger. Yeah, but there's a difference. She's certainly

25
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 1: not rebellious, but certainly you know, got her own her

26
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:39,680
Speaker 1: own way and and yes and no, it's it's it's

27
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:42,600
Speaker 1: a different kind of getaway with stuff. So it's not

28
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:46,360
Speaker 1: really because the boys were like they're they're older now,

29
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 1: so there's a difference there because it's a different time.

30
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 1: So there are twenty six and twenty one, and so

31
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:56,640
Speaker 1: she's fourteen, and there's a big difference in those years

32
00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 1: that happened, what's happened with social media and everything. The

33
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:02,160
Speaker 1: world world is different, So raison a child now is

34
00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:05,880
Speaker 1: different than reason. It's scarier, you think a little, no question, right,

35
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:10,240
Speaker 1: there's so much more room for exposure with um, the

36
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:13,399
Speaker 1: internet and just everything that's going on these face Think

37
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:15,679
Speaker 1: about what were we doing with me with fourteen m

38
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 1: Thank I didn't have social media. That's just an added

39
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:22,400
Speaker 1: element of already like growing up to Yeah, I was

00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:07,120
Speaker 1: mom sang in the choir a little bit. Yeah, so

00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,360
Speaker 1: you were destined for she had a choice. She's gonna

53
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:18,080
Speaker 1: get them vocals ever seen. I was had just started

54
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 1: high school, and that's kind of when my boy Praz started,

55
00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:23,919
Speaker 1: Like I started liking boys. I was. I was a

56
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:27,520
Speaker 1: dance major. I was into ballet, technical dance, so I

57
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:30,280
Speaker 1: was still obsessed with that. But yeah, I started liking

58
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 1: boys around that time. So saying I think so around

59
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 1: that time fourteen, I was. I started high school at thirteen,

60
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 1: so I was like, you know, just getting into the

61
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:46,080
Speaker 1: groove of high school. And I saw those those boys

62
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 1: that I didn't know, you know, from the neighborhood. It

63
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,600
Speaker 1: was a whole different group of guys. And the basketball

64
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 1: team used to come around, and yeah, I had a

65
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 1: few crushes your daughter and took boys. Yet she likes

66
00:03:56,520 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 1: some boys, but not seriously. You know, I always get

67
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 1: this thing, you know, you know where you have to be,

68
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:04,480
Speaker 1: you have to worry about your daughter, and you know

69
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,720
Speaker 1: everybody's gonna be like coming at you. The guy's gonna

70
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,920
Speaker 1: be coming. And I keep on thinking it's really they're

71
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 1: gonna be coming at me, saying, can you please let

72
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 1: her talk to me again? Because you won't talk to me,

73
00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 1: just gonna be the other way around. Because she she

74
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:20,240
Speaker 1: kind of she's independent, and so I don't worry about

75
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:22,240
Speaker 1: her so much, and that because she she seems to

76
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:24,200
Speaker 1: be strong. Will you let her listen to our Lennox's

77
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:30,600
Speaker 1: album and she will set them straight? Okay? Yeah, not

78
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 1: like a kid or but everybody. They listen to everything.

79
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:39,839
Speaker 1: Now kids listen to everything. Everything they do the Internet.

80
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:42,440
Speaker 1: It's so much more exposure for Yeah, a lot of

81
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 1: stuff I hear first on social media too, Like I'll

82
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:47,280
Speaker 1: hear a song first, I'll hear something first on social media,

83
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:49,279
Speaker 1: like TikTok, I'll hear a song, I'm like, who is this? Yeah,

84
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:52,359
Speaker 1: when you see somebody els played on their page and

85
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:54,760
Speaker 1: everybody starts using the same song, I was saying that

86
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:56,160
Speaker 1: to say that if she even if you try to

87
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:58,279
Speaker 1: shout to your kids from certain music, if they're on

88
00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:01,680
Speaker 1: social media, they're gonna you can you can play that

89
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:03,599
Speaker 1: game and say don't listen to that, don't listen to

90
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:06,400
Speaker 1: this and that, but they're gonna listen anyway. Does she

91
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:10,240
Speaker 1: listens to your music? She knows it. I don't think

92
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,279
Speaker 1: that she listens to it all the time, but but

93
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:15,160
Speaker 1: she's familiar and she comes to the concert sometimes I'm

94
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:19,360
Speaker 1: not starting to list I feel like, inside my head,

95
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 1: do you feel you feel nice right now? Where are

96
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:26,080
Speaker 1: you on? I'm kind of like it's like, y'all can

97
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:31,320
Speaker 1: just say whatever right now. So I'm feeling like I

98
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:34,279
Speaker 1: don't want to feel like you know what I'm saying.

99
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:36,600
Speaker 1: But no, I think that she listens to a lot

100
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:40,440
Speaker 1: of music, and she's very very versatile in that sense

101
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,440
Speaker 1: from music from a long time ago. And she she

102
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:46,120
Speaker 1: likes to sing. She doesn't want to be a singer,

103
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:50,880
Speaker 1: but she likes to sing, and she actually does have

104
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:55,960
Speaker 1: a voice. Has she um ever introduced you to an

105
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:59,920
Speaker 1: artist that you aren't familiar with. Yes, they'll be like

106
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,800
Speaker 1: new people on TikTok that you say, this is a

107
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:04,440
Speaker 1: good person, and this is a good person. So it's

108
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:06,560
Speaker 1: all and people that I wouldn't have heard of. And

109
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:08,720
Speaker 1: so she probably loves girls that that's all. Let's say.

110
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,039
Speaker 1: I'm sure she likes a lot of because you have,

111
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:13,480
Speaker 1: like I feel like you have a nice young fresh

112
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:16,599
Speaker 1: We were saying, how it's still it's very timeless, like

113
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 1: you know how sometimes artists that have been around as

114
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 1: long as you have might feel like, Okay, you know

115
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,440
Speaker 1: this sounds dated, but it doesn't sound dated at all. Yeah,

116
00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 1: it doesn't. Yeah, I mean, look, she's she's not always

117
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:29,520
Speaker 1: like like right now, she's really into giving on So

118
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 1: we're gonna go see him? Um And it's like she

119
00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:37,760
Speaker 1: texts me about three times are we going? So so

120
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,440
Speaker 1: it varies in terms of she picks different people. She

121
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 1: It's really weird to watch kids today because they're not

122
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:48,640
Speaker 1: on any one particular thing. It's really all around from

123
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:50,920
Speaker 1: you know, we're at least in California. Anyway, how did

124
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 1: you get up on R Lennox? Like? What made you

125
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:55,440
Speaker 1: say she's on girls night out for sure. UM. To

126
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:58,040
Speaker 1: be honest, you know. UM, a co producer on Enrica

127
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:01,039
Speaker 1: actually introduced me. She said, you need to listen to

128
00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:03,640
Speaker 1: Ari because Ri is the one. And then when I

129
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:07,680
Speaker 1: listened to her, how could you not you know? You're

130
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:10,560
Speaker 1: you know, because like I always got this natural thing

131
00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:14,280
Speaker 1: about her that when she sings, I know people compared

132
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:18,840
Speaker 1: to by do a little bit. Just be honest, um.

133
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:20,760
Speaker 1: But then when I actually heard her, I said, no,

134
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 1: she's that's not about do. That's that's alright. She's got

135
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 1: her own things and it's just fresh and new, and

136
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 1: so I was excited to have already come in. And

137
00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:37,840
Speaker 1: then when she came in and then we started talking

138
00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 1: and she's so so nice and so sweet to talk.

139
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:43,280
Speaker 1: And then you know, we talked about, you know, what

140
00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:45,840
Speaker 1: kind of record we want to do? And I said,

141
00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:47,480
Speaker 1: aren't you in love? She said, I ain't in love.

142
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:54,200
Speaker 1: That You've never been in love, never in my life.

143
00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:56,640
Speaker 1: I don't believe it. Okay, never have you ever thought

144
00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 1: you were in love? I think I'm in love the

145
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:02,120
Speaker 1: first day. And to see somebody so fine and they're

146
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:04,440
Speaker 1: making me laugh, like, so I know it's not love.

147
00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:08,320
Speaker 1: It's never been loved. It's just a lot of romanticizing

148
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:15,680
Speaker 1: and um delusion, you slusion. Yeah, uh, I am scared

149
00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:19,160
Speaker 1: to be in love. I'm scared to be hurt or

150
00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:23,120
Speaker 1: cheated on and uh yeah have you ever been Have

151
00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:26,720

152
00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:30,240
Speaker 1: but I've never had any proof or anything like that.

153
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:33,400
Speaker 1: Or won't even make it long enough for him to

154
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:44,400
Speaker 1: start doing that. Agree, but that album? Yeah right, No,

155
00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:46,719
Speaker 1: I usually look for pain. The paint is a good thing.

156
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:52,800
Speaker 1: Um on records anyway. Not. But you know, you can

157
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,560
Speaker 1: express so much better when you've been hurt. Um. Yeah,

158
00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 1: but that's the funny thing. You sing like you've been hurt.

159
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:05,599
Speaker 1: Oh I have. I've been hurt deeply. But yeah, I

160
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:10,319
Speaker 1: just I just haven't experienced like romantic love. Yeah that

161
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:14,679
Speaker 1: particularly I have. Oh men have hurt me? Just uh,

162
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:20,359
Speaker 1: I just don't know. Yeah, have you heard anybody? Oh? Wow,

163
00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:26,880
Speaker 1: damn yes, Wow, it's so hard for me to face

164
00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:32,200
Speaker 1: my damn self. Yes, I've definitely heard you mean, like

165
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:38,280
Speaker 1: romantically guys. Yeah, probably probably. I'm usually the one who

166
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:42,400
Speaker 1: breaks up really because I feel something isn't right, And

167
00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 1: I think it's because I'm an anxious attachment style, and

168
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:51,200
Speaker 1: I to protect myself I or maybe a little avoidant

169
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:56,439
Speaker 1: as well, because to protect myself. But it's quality like

170
00:09:56,640 --> 00:10:00,719
Speaker 1: bullet points of why I would break up person. But

171
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:05,000
Speaker 1: what kind of relationships were around you growing up? Oh? Like,

172
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:08,240
Speaker 1: what do you mean, like successful marriages? Did you see

173
00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:14,640
Speaker 1: a lot of Wow? Oh my goodness, well there were none.

174
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:20,719
Speaker 1: My parents were married, but they didn't really like each other, like, well,

175
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:23,480
Speaker 1: they liked each other, but they didn't really feel in love.

176
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:29,320
Speaker 1: They were feeling like romance with each other. They too, Yeah, totally,

177
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:32,320
Speaker 1: they were married. They waited to I graduated from college

178
00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:34,679
Speaker 1: to get divorced, because you know, sometimes they feel like

179
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,160
Speaker 1: we're going to be devastated or something soon as I graduated.

180
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:42,000
Speaker 1: Mom is like, your father not got divorced. Ya okay,

181
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:45,240
Speaker 1: But I feel like, you know, it really does affect

182
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:47,960
Speaker 1: what you see in terms of growing up with relationships,

183
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:51,920
Speaker 1: whether they're bad, it does affect you know, how you

184
00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:53,599
Speaker 1: are in your relationships and stuff like that. Like she

185
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:55,439
Speaker 1: was saying, like she has an anxious attachment sort of

186
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:57,800
Speaker 1: thing that may have something to do with your absolute

187
00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:00,959
Speaker 1: parents and it doesn't affect you know, Yeah, I think so.

188
00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:06,560
Speaker 1: My mom is very secure, chill, and my dad is

189
00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:10,800
Speaker 1: like the complete opposite. Well he's he's he toys with

190
00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:17,079
Speaker 1: anxiety avoidant type personality. So like, yeah, it made sense

191
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:19,199
Speaker 1: that it it worked for so long with them because

192
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:22,680
Speaker 1: she's more like confidence stable, like she's able to deal

193
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:27,959
Speaker 1: with his intense ways. So I think balance, Yeah, if

194
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:31,160
Speaker 1: they balance each other out. Yeah, but um, yeah, I

195
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:33,800
Speaker 1: think I would probably need someone very secure, because do

196
00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:35,400
Speaker 1: you feel like you have a little bit of both

197
00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:39,640
Speaker 1: of them? And I do. I aspire to be like

198
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:44,800
Speaker 1: my mom in her like unbothered like so chill, calm.

199
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:51,120
Speaker 1: I feel you are very chill, calm. You like that

200
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:57,840
Speaker 1: behind closed doors, right, chill sometimes personally, but you know,

201
00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:00,720
Speaker 1: even you give us an example of your being unche

202
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:07,560
Speaker 1: Now you could give us some where you know you

203
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:11,280
Speaker 1: weren't like this. It takes a lot to get me there. Okay,

204
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 1: I'm with you there though. What's your sign? Okay? Oh

205
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:21,400
Speaker 1: my god, how in the world are nice and like aries?

206
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:26,920
Speaker 1: You know are not that word heinous creatures? It's you

207
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:29,599
Speaker 1: seem so I don't need to know these areas. You know,

208
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:37,559
Speaker 1: you seem so mature and evolved in just yeah, and

209
00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:40,439
Speaker 1: by the way, got a full head of hair. Still yeah, no,

210
00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:46,400
Speaker 1: none of that. Yeah, like I never right, you don't

211
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:53,520
Speaker 1: have no strength his hair? So is my mama's jeans. Wow,

212
00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,000
Speaker 1: you know, you're very fortunate. You know how many people

213
00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:58,000
Speaker 1: you see that guy with his hat on right there?

214
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:17,400
Speaker 1: I don't sorry, you're awful. You're awful. What did you

215
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:19,839
Speaker 1: see growing up? Baby face? Like as five as a relationship,

216
00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:21,800
Speaker 1: did you see a lot of love around you? Well?

217
00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:24,560
Speaker 1: I lost my dad when I was like fourteen years old,

218
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,880
Speaker 1: and uh my mom had to raise like six boys,

219
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:33,520
Speaker 1: and uh so I was raised in you know, around him. Um,

220
00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:35,480
Speaker 1: a woman that was a very strong woman because she

221
00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:39,520
Speaker 1: had to six knuckleheads, you know, not just boys, but knuckleheads.

222
00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:41,960
Speaker 1: And we were all, you know, all go in different

223
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:45,440
Speaker 1: ways and and she was just, uh, she was just

224
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:47,720
Speaker 1: very supportive for each and every one of us. You know.

225
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:50,560
Speaker 1: It was like everything that we did, you know, in

226
00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:53,199
Speaker 1: school or whatever, she would show up every time. And

227
00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:56,600
Speaker 1: she had to work. And so early years, you know,

228
00:13:56,640 --> 00:14:00,600
Speaker 1: when my father was around, because he passed away with

229
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:06,240
Speaker 1: lung cancer. And before he was he was like pretty quiet,

230
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:10,840
Speaker 1: kind of a hard guy. Couldn't really talk talk to him,

231
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 1: you know, so, um, sometimes I could hear them argue,

232
00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:16,200
Speaker 1: I don't know had he lived that it would have

233
00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:19,320
Speaker 1: been great. The whole time, I couldn't. I was too

234
00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:22,120
Speaker 1: young to really know what was happening. But I know

235
00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:26,680
Speaker 1: that um as I grew older, I was thinking about

236
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:28,480
Speaker 1: what their relationship was like, and I don't know that

237
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:33,000
Speaker 1: it would have lasted as much, you know, because he

238
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 1: didn't Uh, he didn't like her work, and he didn't

239
00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:39,480
Speaker 1: like the idea of her working, and and and she

240
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:42,520
Speaker 1: wanted to work. She was like when she was in

241
00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:46,040
Speaker 1: high school. She she graduated like at sixteen, went to

242
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:50,320
Speaker 1: college of sixteen years old, you know, and and then

243
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:52,320
Speaker 1: she only went two years because then she met my

244
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:56,040
Speaker 1: dad and then you know, she started a kids. So

245
00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:58,040
Speaker 1: you were kind of the opposite, right, because then you

246
00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:00,880
Speaker 1: got married and you actually, in your first marriage, you

247
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:04,200
Speaker 1: guys both worked a lot, Yeah, and supported each other,

248
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:06,720
Speaker 1: and you wanted your wife like you supported that she

249
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:09,920
Speaker 1: supported you and what you were both doing. Yeah, So uh,

250
00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:12,280
Speaker 1: for me, it's it can it can be either way.

251
00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:15,840
Speaker 1: But I think in general, just working, every woman should

252
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 1: um as I want to push my daughter. You should

253
00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:20,520
Speaker 1: be independent. You should have your own thing. You should

254
00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:24,680
Speaker 1: never just depend on a guy and vice versa. No

255
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:26,760
Speaker 1: one should just depend on each other. You should always

256
00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:28,680
Speaker 1: kind of like, you know, be there for each other

257
00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:31,400
Speaker 1: in the sense of, you know, working and bring something

258
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:34,600
Speaker 1: to the table. I think that means that means a

259
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:37,560
Speaker 1: lot more, especially, you know, because you never know whether

260
00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:40,560
Speaker 1: something's gonna work, something's not gonna work, so um, it's

261
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:42,160
Speaker 1: best to kind of like always have your own thing

262
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:45,000
Speaker 1: a little bit. Man, I'm not moving into your house, right.

263
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,360
Speaker 1: Were your parents either your parents musical? Could anyone sing?

264
00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:52,880
Speaker 1: My dad could sing a little bit, and my mom

265
00:15:52,920 --> 00:16:00,360
Speaker 1: always says she could sing a little. But don't play

266
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:04,760
Speaker 1: anything about your grandparents. Anybody play instruments. You know. It

267
00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:07,480
Speaker 1: all kind of started from what I can tell, It started,

268
00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:10,520
Speaker 1: you know, with with our family and my brother Melvin,

269
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:13,560
Speaker 1: who was in after seven. He's not with the same way,

270
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:16,280
Speaker 1: but he's an afther seven and Kevin, you know, they

271
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:18,800
Speaker 1: had like amazing voices. So it all kind of started there.

272
00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:22,760
Speaker 1: And I followed my brother Melvin. I saw him singing.

273
00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 1: I just I want to do that because he was

274
00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:29,320
Speaker 1: so good. Wow, that's an amazing stiry. You guys were

275
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:31,720
Speaker 1: like the vond Chap family from the Sound of Music. Yeah,

276
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:34,560
Speaker 1: we didn't. But you know, we didn't. We didn't walk,

277
00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:36,680
Speaker 1: we didn't sing around the house. We didn't sing with

278
00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:39,800
Speaker 1: each other. It wasn't that kind of musical house. Everybody

279
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:42,200
Speaker 1: there were six boys, and everybody kind of had their

280
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,960
Speaker 1: own Everybody was individuals, so we weren't really that we

281
00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:49,000
Speaker 1: got closer as we got older, but as kids, everybody

282
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:51,000
Speaker 1: had their own friends and went their their own way.

283
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:53,240
Speaker 1: So to say, I always think those kind of talents

284
00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:55,480
Speaker 1: are genetics though, like always feel like that's always like

285
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:57,560
Speaker 1: who was singing? Like who you know? But apparently but

286
00:16:57,600 --> 00:16:59,840
Speaker 1: you don't know, maybe like your great great grandmother or

287
00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:02,800
Speaker 1: may you know could go back deep. Yeah, I had

288
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:06,680
Speaker 1: an uncle that I thought he could sing. He was

289
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:08,840
Speaker 1: a songwriter. He would always keep up giving me lyrics

290
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:10,760
Speaker 1: and stuff that I got me another song for you.

291
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:14,240
Speaker 1: Did you ever use any of it? I wanted to,

292
00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:16,679
Speaker 1: but just wasn't good. No, it wasn't good enough. I

293
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 1: wanted to. That's so nice. Good All right, Now that

Speaker 1: without their own place once before? She was probably young.

310
00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:28,200
Speaker 1: So what was that like? Like? Where did you guys?

311
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:30,919

00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:52,760
Speaker 1: tell you straight out the gate. Now I know he

318
00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:57,680
Speaker 1: didn't definite place, he didn't have his own, but she

319
00:18:57,840 --> 00:18:59,920
Speaker 1: wouldn't have dated How did you? How did you get

320
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:05,439
Speaker 1: if he didn't have anything. How did he get I know,

321
00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:08,600
Speaker 1: how how did you get? Well? Was this before I

322
00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:15,280
Speaker 1: after shave? But her baby long before? Long before? Okay,

323
00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:23,679
Speaker 1: yeah before a long time ghost stays. But yeah, how

324
00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:25,600
Speaker 1: did it? So? How did he get you? Like? What?

325
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:29,320
Speaker 1: How did you get me? Yeah? He made you laugh?

326
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:34,399
Speaker 1: He it was more what I don't even know. It

327
00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:40,000
Speaker 1: was just thriller. It just felt like a I don't know,

328
00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:45,760
Speaker 1: it felt like there was like darkness there. But yeah,

329
00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:49,120
Speaker 1: and uh, he but he wasn't that funny at all.

330
00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:53,199
Speaker 1: I guess he he was very He was actually corny.

331
00:19:53,280 --> 00:20:01,080
Speaker 1: It was very dark. It wasn't it was it was

332
00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:04,000
Speaker 1: actually just straight to the point. It wasn't even great.

333
00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 1: It wasn't even do a four play it was. It

334
00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:12,160
Speaker 1: was no, it was it was longer around, very very basic,

335
00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:16,360
Speaker 1: very basic, terrible. So you think it was like right timing.

336
00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:19,800
Speaker 1: Sometimes you're like, I'm bored and listen. It's funny because

337
00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:22,520
Speaker 1: you have this wasting Time song and Brent Bias has

338
00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:25,800
Speaker 1: a song called Wasting Time. But I like the way

339
00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:28,200
Speaker 1: they both kind of like it's from a woman's point

340
00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:29,760
Speaker 1: of view and a male's point of view. They kind

341
00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:33,080
Speaker 1: of are similar. I am so hypocritical and delusional because

342
00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:35,280
Speaker 1: I was like, I can't listen to Brent, like his

343
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:41,040
Speaker 1: music is so toxic, and then I realized I'm also

344
00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:44,440
Speaker 1: very toxic a little bit. So the nice like eye

345
00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:48,000
Speaker 1: opening moment, like do a collab, a wasting time remix

346
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:52,480
Speaker 1: for each other? You know, that would be us. Yeah,

347
00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:54,760
Speaker 1: that would be great. I do love Brent, so I

348
00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:56,440
Speaker 1: would love to do that. And I have to just

349
00:20:56,440 --> 00:21:01,800
Speaker 1: face my truth, like it it's in there that talks there. Okay,

350
00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:06,960
Speaker 1: it's two toxic to baby, but I want to end Yeah,

351
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:10,800
Speaker 1: true baby faces anybody but that you were toxic as

352
00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:12,880
Speaker 1: you were coming up in this because you always seem

353
00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:16,120
Speaker 1: so nice. So even the headaches, though, those guys are

354
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:19,480
Speaker 1: because sometimes we do want you to like be super

355
00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:24,840
Speaker 1: emotional and like spicy, yet us raise your voice. You know.

356
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:28,920
Speaker 1: I always used to be worried about being the nice guy,

357
00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:31,040
Speaker 1: because being too nice then you then you lose out

358
00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:34,320
Speaker 1: too uh and so like because you could always watch

359
00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:36,000
Speaker 1: a certain kind of guy go into the room and

360
00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:38,200
Speaker 1: get the girl immediately. You don't know what he's saying.

361
00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:46,800
Speaker 1: He just whispered something like whoever got and whoever want

362
00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:48,439
Speaker 1: to say something to her? And then she said, all right,

363
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:50,879
Speaker 1: I'm down where I go up and be nice, And

364
00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:54,720
Speaker 1: she's like, I don't think so you're born nice. Nice

365
00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:58,680
Speaker 1: adds up to being born usually until you like you've

366
00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:01,200
Speaker 1: dated people and then you messed around everything. You said,

367
00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:04,000
Speaker 1: I just want nice, That's what I just said, nice,

368
00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:08,439
Speaker 1: sweet guy books. I think a lot of guys we

369
00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:10,480
Speaker 1: have a tendency to think that you really want to

370
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:14,080
Speaker 1: go for the bad guy. You know, want like the

371
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:17,159
Speaker 1: bad girls too, though, I feel like, also, do you

372
00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:22,000
Speaker 1: like bad girls? Maybe because I don't think bad girls

373
00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:25,400
Speaker 1: like me? Wow? You know, I think you like who

374
00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:30,119
Speaker 1: likes you and sometimes yeah, because like if you go

375
00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:33,040
Speaker 1: after somebody that no one wants to go up and

376
00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:36,600
Speaker 1: get embarrassed. So normally when you date somebody, they approach

377
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:41,000
Speaker 1: you first. Pretty much, I don't. I don't. It's not

378
00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:43,840
Speaker 1: it's kind of it's more I don't go after it

379
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 1: if it if it happens organically. She got to let

380
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 1: you know, like, if you ask me, so, you so

381
00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:54,320
Speaker 1: you don't make moves because you don't want I think

382
00:22:54,359 --> 00:23:09,240
Speaker 1: so thank you for Yeah, I understand, But it's interesting

383
00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:10,879
Speaker 1: you said it's because of reject like you don't want

384
00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:14,760
Speaker 1: to be be rejected. Yeah, you know, look when I grew up,

385
00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:17,760
Speaker 1: I grew up like falling in love with girls and

386
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:21,440
Speaker 1: getting my heart broke because I didn't even really try.

387
00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:26,159
Speaker 1: But you know, like I had a really I'm not

388
00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:28,359
Speaker 1: toxic whatever. When I first fell in love with this

389
00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:33,720
Speaker 1: one girl, it was two years running. It's like sixth grade.

390
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:36,639
Speaker 1: She came to school and her first day of school

391
00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,600
Speaker 1: and I saw her. I fell in love immediately, and

392
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:43,520
Speaker 1: I got started writing. I went home immediately that day

393
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:47,160
Speaker 1: and started writing a diary. And every day she get

394
00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:49,400
Speaker 1: on the bus, I'd write, she has on a blue

395
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:51,679
Speaker 1: coat and she looked so good to that, And I

396
00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:56,000
Speaker 1: was writing all this stuff and and then um, she

397
00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:58,439
Speaker 1: she kept kept on getting on the bus, and I

398
00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 1: kept on writing things. And one day my rather Kevin,

399
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:05,040
Speaker 1: found my diary. No, it's the worst. And then he

400
00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:07,680
Speaker 1: found it and my cousin found it and they were

401
00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:12,000
Speaker 1: inside the living room and they started talking. They started

402
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:14,400
Speaker 1: reading my diary out loud, and I was just dying.

403
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:17,320
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I was dying. And so I went and

404
00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:20,040
Speaker 1: grabbed the diary and I started hiding it outside instead

405
00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:24,200
Speaker 1: of in the house. Um and then, um no, I

406
00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:26,960
Speaker 1: didn't stop writing, but a big rain came and then

407
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:30,560
Speaker 1: it walhed ther way. That would have been great for something.

408
00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,879
Speaker 1: It would have been but now that's long agone romantic

409
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:39,159
Speaker 1: I was at the time and so so. But basically

410
00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:42,320
Speaker 1: I kind of like, ultimately my cousin happened to know

411
00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:45,120
Speaker 1: her no her sister. And then one day she called

412
00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:47,000
Speaker 1: on the phone. They had her on the phone. They said,

413
00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:50,240
Speaker 1: Kenny telephone. I got on the phone and I said hello,

414
00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:53,480
Speaker 1: said hell, is this this Kenny? I said, yeah, this Knny.

415
00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:56,480
Speaker 1: Just said who's this? She says it's Rhonda. I like

416
00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:59,520
Speaker 1: freeze and I hang up the phone. Oh my guys,

417
00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:04,000
Speaker 1: ye did she call that? She did not call that

418
00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:06,440
Speaker 1: um because I didn't know what to say. I didn't

419
00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:09,360
Speaker 1: know how to handle it, and so then I still

420
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:12,520
Speaker 1: didn't do anything. And then this guy named Eddy was

421
00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:14,480
Speaker 1: like the Q kid in the class. He had a

422
00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:18,480
Speaker 1: big afro, like skin had a big afro, a little

423
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:23,800
Speaker 1: frog and uh, and he was like you know, he

424
00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:25,959
Speaker 1: had he was kind of like good in sports and everything,

425
00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:30,080
Speaker 1: and he liked her, and and when he started going

426
00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:32,679
Speaker 1: after that, knew no chance for me. And I was

427
00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:36,080
Speaker 1: stupid because I was like, yeah, you know, she's really nice.

428
00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:37,359
Speaker 1: He said he said, I just don't know what to

429
00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:39,960
Speaker 1: say to her, and you knew everything to say to her.

430
00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:45,199
Speaker 1: So I wrote, I wrote the note a letter to

431
00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:51,679
Speaker 1: her from him, and he signed it. No, that's that

432
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:55,520
Speaker 1: was the beginning. That's the beginning to feel like super rejected.

433
00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:58,880
Speaker 1: Though when you hung up with her, well, she was confused.

434
00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:01,280
Speaker 1: That was compuse you didn't know and you were an

435
00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:03,479
Speaker 1: amazing letter and let's wrote the letter and then so

436
00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:07,840
Speaker 1: he gave it to her and they started dating. But

437
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:11,320
Speaker 1: also thanks to Ronda, she kind of sparked her writing career.

438
00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:21,960
Speaker 1: I don't want to go through because as a long story,

439
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:24,600
Speaker 1: but but ultimately I kind of still had a crush

440
00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:27,480
Speaker 1: on it too. Up through eighth grade, t I finally

441
00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:31,000
Speaker 1: actually you know, I was having conversation with her, walk

442
00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:33,040
Speaker 1: to school with her, I was like in love walking

443
00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:36,280
Speaker 1: to school, had conversation. I was excited, I wasn't shy.

444
00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:38,480
Speaker 1: I was like, I didn't run away from her. And

445
00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:42,280
Speaker 1: then long story short, it ended up with the kiss

446
00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:46,000
Speaker 1: and the disk um. Two weeks into after school, I

447
00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:49,359
Speaker 1: went to her house and um, this is hard to

448
00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:52,160
Speaker 1: tell this because you guys missed so much in between,

449
00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:55,280
Speaker 1: but bottom line, we went out inside in front of

450
00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:57,119
Speaker 1: a tree, and I said, yeah, I was calling you

451
00:26:57,119 --> 00:26:58,760
Speaker 1: for the past couple of weeks and she said, you're

452
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:02,520
Speaker 1: I've been busy and stuff like that, and I said okay.

453
00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:05,480
Speaker 1: So she goes out of know where she goes kiss me. Oh,

454
00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:13,959
Speaker 1: this is like I mean yeah, And I didn't know

455
00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:16,680
Speaker 1: I had never kissed the girl. And I was really

456
00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:18,639
Speaker 1: young AND's only only kisses I saw. I was on

457
00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:24,400
Speaker 1: TV show Love American Stuff. You don't know what was that?

458
00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:28,720
Speaker 1: So so I leaned in for the kiss, and the

459
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:33,679
Speaker 1: kiss was you know, it was count count you know,

460
00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:36,320
Speaker 1: at least called the four because that's how long they

461
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:40,119
Speaker 1: do it, don't Love America. And then I pulled back

462
00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:42,920
Speaker 1: and then she goes, I'm afraid we're not gonna be

463
00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:46,359
Speaker 1: able to see each other. What we didn't like the kiss?

464
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:49,840
Speaker 1: And I thought it was the kiss, and then she said,

465
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:51,560
Speaker 1: you know that guy. Then I walked out of school

466
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:55,479
Speaker 1: with Tracy. You know we're going together now. So why

467
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:59,040
Speaker 1: she tell you to kiss her? I think that she

468
00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:02,919
Speaker 1: was I think I wanted to check they were sparks.

469
00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:04,840
Speaker 1: I don't know if it was sparks or she was

470
00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:06,600
Speaker 1: being she knew I really liked her and I think

471
00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:15,160
Speaker 1: she thought, let me, let me let him She ever

472
00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:16,840
Speaker 1: find out that she wrote the letter on behalf of

473
00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:21,399
Speaker 1: her boyfriend. Yes, funny enough, About five years ago I

474
00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:26,720
Speaker 1: found her, see I knew she's on Facebook, okay, um,

475
00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:33,480
Speaker 1: and I had lunch with her because I wanted to

476
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:36,439
Speaker 1: tell her everything that I remembered. I only told her

477
00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:39,479
Speaker 1: pieces because I wanted to see what she remembered, you know,

478
00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:41,360
Speaker 1: from the very first time I went on the first

479
00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:44,440
Speaker 1: date with her, because she as we started talking, then

480
00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:47,360
Speaker 1: I started tears, started compromise because she started to remember

481
00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:49,440
Speaker 1: some of the things. And that's the thing that I

482
00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:51,400
Speaker 1: want to know why I mentioned it to you, Because

483
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:55,840
Speaker 1: what she said to me was that which was powerful

484
00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:58,880
Speaker 1: to me because she said, you know, all my life,

485
00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:03,000
Speaker 1: I've gone through thinking all the guys that hurt me,

486
00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:12,880
Speaker 1: and I never thought about the guys that I hurt

487
00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:17,760
Speaker 1: a lot of people, Chris, that was amazing. See wow,

488
00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:27,040
Speaker 1: So that was and that was probably it sounds like

489
00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:28,920
Speaker 1: the next practice is going to be called I heard

490
00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:36,320
Speaker 1: a lot of people. So let me ask you this,

491
00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:39,160
Speaker 1: because baby Face should do a great job of writing

492
00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:41,120
Speaker 1: from a woman's point of view. Do you think you

493
00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:45,480
Speaker 1: could write from a man's point of view. Wow, Um,

494
00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:50,400
Speaker 1: I've never thought about it. I've never tried. I maybe

495
00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:52,640
Speaker 1: I think you could, Yeah, I think so, yeah, I

496
00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:56,040
Speaker 1: mean yeah, I could say something. I think that you

497
00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:59,960
Speaker 1: you kind of do anyway, because any woman that's independent,

498
00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:03,160
Speaker 1: that's writing from a man's point of view. The truth

499
00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:05,440
Speaker 1: is when you when you don't care, when you're thinking

500
00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:08,240
Speaker 1: of just for yourself and not worrying about what he's thinking,

501
00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:11,000
Speaker 1: what he's feeling, that's when because most of the time

502
00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:14,000
Speaker 1: men aren't thinking about what the women's thoughts are so

503
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:17,880
Speaker 1: so so I think that you know, it's it's easier

504
00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:19,640
Speaker 1: to go to that once you get to that point

505
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:22,080
Speaker 1: just being independent and I don't care if you heard

506
00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:24,360
Speaker 1: or whatever, like this is how I feel, you know,

507
00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:28,040
Speaker 1: And in all reality, I think a lot of them.

508
00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:32,480
Speaker 1: What I think is different today and most young R

509
00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:35,800
Speaker 1: and B artists is that they do kind of right

510
00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:40,080
Speaker 1: and they do and they are far more independent than before.

511
00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:42,600
Speaker 1: And so what was fun about doing the Girls Night

512
00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:44,280
Speaker 1: Out project is that's the one thing that I learned

513
00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:47,160
Speaker 1: is everybody came in with an opinion. Everybody came with

514
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:50,280
Speaker 1: something to say, and they and they were good writers

515
00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:53,080
Speaker 1: and had great melody with it, had great stories, great

516
00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:56,000
Speaker 1: flow with it, and that was not like it was before.

517
00:30:56,280 --> 00:30:57,840
Speaker 1: I used to have to write all the songs. But

518
00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:01,840
Speaker 1: now I take I took or co writing with everybody

519
00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:04,400
Speaker 1: and getting to hear their voices and hear their flow. Beast,

520
00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:07,160
Speaker 1: it's different today than it was before. I feel like

521
00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:09,440
Speaker 1: you have to be a good listener to you definitely

522
00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:13,600
Speaker 1: got to listen. Yeah, like you have this sound blocking you, right,

523
00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:20,719
Speaker 1: So you're a blacker. H Yeah, I'm a bit childish.

524
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:28,960
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, and sometimes you know too fast. Like it's

525
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:31,040
Speaker 1: like it was it was not that necessary, like it

526
00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:35,200
Speaker 1: was unnecessary. Like yeah, like he said he would call

527
00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:39,360
Speaker 1: me back, and he was about to go eat something

528
00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:42,560
Speaker 1: before we talk again. Because this guy I was talking to,

529
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:44,880
Speaker 1: I was like, you know, I think we should talk

530
00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:47,120
Speaker 1: about something. I feel like something's different. He was like,

531
00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:50,160
Speaker 1: let me just eat something. I'll call you back. I

532
00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:51,880
Speaker 1: get on the phone with my dad. It was like

533
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:55,200
Speaker 1: two long hours. I noticed he didn't call me, and

534
00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:57,360
Speaker 1: so I blocked the guy. That's how I will say this.

535
00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:00,600
Speaker 1: I will say this, if I need that a conversation

536
00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:02,280
Speaker 1: with you, I'll tell me I have to go eat

537
00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:04,400
Speaker 1: something first. Let me call you back. I feel like

538
00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:06,280
Speaker 1: it's kind of urgent if I tell you that, Yeah,

539
00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:11,640
Speaker 1: we don't have you to go. That was very avoid Yeah, okay, wow,

540
00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:14,840
Speaker 1: I would I'm trying to think about that. Let me

541
00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:21,480
Speaker 1: think anyone you want to talk, Well, I'm gonna go

542
00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:23,920
Speaker 1: eat something first thing. We can have a conversation. And

543
00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:26,360
Speaker 1: then he never called it back. It was two two

544
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:29,280
Speaker 1: hours is a long meal. Yeah, but he said you

545
00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:31,280
Speaker 1: want to talk? Were you ready to talk? Right then? Yeah?

546
00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:33,520
Speaker 1: She wanted to talk. But I get it's not just

547
00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:37,200
Speaker 1: about what I want when I want it, but how

548
00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:39,200
Speaker 1: long does it take to eat? It's not like it's

549
00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:41,440
Speaker 1: like I'm going to dinner with my best if. I'm like,

550
00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:43,360
Speaker 1: you can tell me in my feelings about something and

551
00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:44,640
Speaker 1: I want to talk and you're like, well, let me

552
00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:47,080
Speaker 1: eat something. Personally, I would like to eat, but I

553
00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:49,120
Speaker 1: didn't want to question though, Like, did you really say

554
00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:52,320
Speaker 1: like it's something I really want to talk about? I said,

555
00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:58,000
Speaker 1: I literally expressed him, I feel like something's changing. Yeah, yeah,

556
00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:00,000
Speaker 1: it could have been quick. He could have been like, yeah,

557
00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:05,480
Speaker 1: something is changing, bitch like and I'm joking, like I

558
00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:09,720
Speaker 1: don't want to ever say that to me, but yeah, yeah,

559
00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:12,440
Speaker 1: let me ask you. Somebody sent in the question I

560
00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:14,240
Speaker 1: have a question. If someone says they want to be

561
00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:17,680
Speaker 1: with you but not now, what is that really saying? Wow,

562
00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:22,080
Speaker 1: they want to be with you but not now. Yeah,

563
00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:26,160
Speaker 1: don't put me that's a good question. I feel like

564
00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:28,080
Speaker 1: that means I know I ain't shipped right now and

565
00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:30,800
Speaker 1: I want to do my Yeah, that's what that means.

566
00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:32,840
Speaker 1: But like, don't try to put it on the on

567
00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:36,720
Speaker 1: the back burner or that thing, and then you come

568
00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:38,360
Speaker 1: back to me when you're ready, Like, don't sit me

569
00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:40,240
Speaker 1: on the shelf. But that could be you could you

570
00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:44,000
Speaker 1: could also being something else. I'd love to be with you,

571
00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:46,320
Speaker 1: but not now because I'm I'm not in a good

572
00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:48,920
Speaker 1: space together everything. I had a guy tell me that

573
00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:50,840
Speaker 1: he didn't feel like he had enough money to like

574
00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:53,720
Speaker 1: what to date because he didn't have a ship together.

575
00:33:53,800 --> 00:34:04,959
Speaker 1: Probably honest with him to you, some guys would never

576
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:08,439
Speaker 1: even admit that, right, Yeah, So it could be that

577
00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:12,480
Speaker 1: you're right. It's always there's always that possibility like that.

578
00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:15,759
Speaker 1: There's a reason, you know, and you said I want

579
00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:17,440
Speaker 1: to be with you right now. Let's say, well, can

580
00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:21,520
Speaker 1: you tell me why not now? M M okay, you know,

581
00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:23,960
Speaker 1: do you think that that should matter though, Like, if

582
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:26,880
Speaker 1: you really want to be with somebody but maybe financially

583
00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:30,040
Speaker 1: things aren't together, do you think that should matter or

584
00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:32,080
Speaker 1: you think you should still go for it when most

585
00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:35,080
Speaker 1: cases you're probably your your first assumption is right. If

586
00:34:35,120 --> 00:34:36,560
Speaker 1: he says I wouldn't be with you right now, then

587
00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:39,680
Speaker 1: you don't want to me what anyway. But there's always

588
00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:42,719
Speaker 1: that possibility that it could be more. But you know,

589
00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:47,520
Speaker 1: men are privful and and they don't always want to

590
00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:50,359
Speaker 1: say that they have less. Just to even admit that

591
00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:52,920
Speaker 1: to you, it means I'm out the game. You know,

592
00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:55,040
Speaker 1: I can't talk to you. How How am I going

593
00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:56,600
Speaker 1: to talk to you if I ain't got no place yet?

594
00:34:57,280 --> 00:35:00,399
Speaker 1: You know? And but I might have a place. I'm

595
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:03,480
Speaker 1: getting there, but I'm just not at that level. And

596
00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:04,719
Speaker 1: and I don't know if I want to take the

597
00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:06,560
Speaker 1: rejection and he saying, oh you ain't got a place, okay,

598
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:10,160
Speaker 1: then I want to go back to the rejection. Yeah,

599
00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:19,960
Speaker 1: or maybe his wife is would be with it? Oh yeah,

600
00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:24,000
Speaker 1: you never know what's going on all right now? I

601
00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:27,200
Speaker 1: do want to aspect this song leak It. Oh okay,

602
00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:29,319
Speaker 1: So you and Kloe have a song called Leaking on

603
00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:32,279
Speaker 1: the album and you say, what is it that? Um?

604
00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:42,080
Speaker 1: I took it two different ways. Okay, you know, leak

Speaker 1: these pictures, leak this video, No, leak this pussy. Okay

606

Speaker 1: then did she approach you? Because we know it kind

643
00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:56,920

00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:13,840
Speaker 1: say no overlapping. It's real and it's good and I

647
00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:18,279
Speaker 1: think that I think that everybody should be um. You

648
00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:22,480
Speaker 1: should try to have someone in your life. And so

649
00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:27,360
Speaker 1: as it relates it to R don't fight everybody. Oh,

650
00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:29,960
Speaker 1: I don't let let the door open a little bit.

651
00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:34,200
Speaker 1: She's guarded though I know your guard it and I

652
00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:36,200
Speaker 1: kind of have to be because of who you are now,

653
00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:38,800
Speaker 1: you know, because so that that does make a difference.

654
00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:40,960
Speaker 1: So it makes it makes it a little more, makes

655
00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:43,520
Speaker 1: it difficult to find someone goes. You gotta know that

656
00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:46,279
Speaker 1: they're coming for you, supposed to coming for what your

657
00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:49,480
Speaker 1: life is, because you are so lick. Thing you are

658
00:39:49,719 --> 00:39:53,759
Speaker 1: like honestly just everything about you you are, like your

659
00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:57,239
Speaker 1: music is amazing. We don't want you to settle. You

660
00:39:57,960 --> 00:40:00,840
Speaker 1: are that girl and if they but there's a balance

661
00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:04,239
Speaker 1: between settling but also like taking a risk because no

662
00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:05,719
Speaker 1: matter who you're with is going to be a risk.

663
00:40:05,760 --> 00:40:08,200
Speaker 1: He could be he could check all the boxes and

664
00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:09,839
Speaker 1: it could not work, or he could be a work

665
00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:13,080
Speaker 1: in progress and you guys could end up being together.

666
00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:17,359
Speaker 1: Come open, I am open, but I think, Yeah, it's

667
00:40:17,400 --> 00:40:21,839
Speaker 1: just as long as I continue with like therapy, I

668
00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:27,959
Speaker 1: think I can fully be comfortable and a relationship, you know. Yeah,

669
00:40:28,080 --> 00:40:30,319
Speaker 1: just it's just gonna take a lot from my guard

670
00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:32,960
Speaker 1: to really come down, because now I feel like I'm

671
00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:36,560
Speaker 1: really a lot more protective over myself. Like it's just

672
00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:40,160
Speaker 1: a lot of healing needs to happen. Yeah, well the

673
00:40:40,239 --> 00:40:45,359
Speaker 1: music is healing for all of us. Thank you, Thank you, y'all. Well,

674
00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:47,120
Speaker 1: baby face, we had so much fun with you. I

675
00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:50,680
Speaker 1: feel like we could have just let you do the interview. Yeah,

676
00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:54,440
Speaker 1: because you're very introspective and you give great gems, like

677
00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:58,440
Speaker 1: even you're talking about Rhonda and then time it back in. Yeah,

678
00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:06,319
Speaker 1: que brilliant, it's brilliant. Thank you. We all need like

679
00:41:06,360 --> 00:41:09,440
Speaker 1: a baby faced friend in our lives. What do you

680
00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:14,200
Speaker 1: think about this? Right? It's fun. It's fun to be here.

681
00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:18,480
Speaker 1: Some conversations that I wasn't sure I was gonna here,

682
00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:24,040
Speaker 1: but anyway, I know, right, right exactly, that's okay, right,

683
00:41:24,680 --> 00:41:29,799
Speaker 1: more than a year. But how do you write a

684
00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:33,400
Speaker 1: song about that she's going to find a way? The

685
00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:35,080
Speaker 1: fact that it's been over a year and it's some change.

686
00:41:36,239 --> 00:41:37,759
Speaker 1: Oh wait, how do I write a song about what

687
00:41:37,760 --> 00:41:41,560
Speaker 1: I was just saying that I would never, I would

688
00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:45,880
Speaker 1: never talk. It's been to I don't even know if

689
00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:48,120
Speaker 1: the song the song is called has been too long.

690
00:41:48,360 --> 00:41:50,799
Speaker 1: Let's name of the song. Oh No, I would never.

691
00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:55,239
Speaker 1: I don't want to make any more songs about just

692
00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:59,560
Speaker 1: sucking guys off, not that I ever had. I was like,

693
00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:04,759
Speaker 1: I'm in a metaphorical way, like kind of like I'm

694
00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:09,880
Speaker 1: just tired of coming off very like I don't know, naive,

695
00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:15,960
Speaker 1: and like I don't know, hope, hopeless, hope that hopeless romantic.

696
00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:20,719
Speaker 1: I like being a hopeless romantic. I think I'll jump

697
00:42:20,719 --> 00:42:24,000
Speaker 1: in here and say that I think that Ari's voice

698
00:42:24,280 --> 00:42:26,720
Speaker 1: is a voice where she can sing about many things

699
00:42:27,640 --> 00:42:30,640
Speaker 1: that matter to a lot of people. And so there's

700
00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:32,480
Speaker 1: so many other subjects that she can touch on in

701
00:42:32,560 --> 00:42:36,440
Speaker 1: relationships or whatever, and so her voice is an important voice.

702
00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:40,200
Speaker 1: And I think that it's just the beginning for her

703
00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:44,000
Speaker 1: and everybody's just not just coming in on it and

704
00:42:44,080 --> 00:42:46,799
Speaker 1: get getting a taste of it. And I think her

705
00:42:46,840 --> 00:42:49,560
Speaker 1: career is gonna be long and fruitful because she has

706
00:42:49,560 --> 00:42:52,919
Speaker 1: a voice that people want to hear, people love. And

707
00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:55,840
Speaker 1: when I was in the studio with her, That's what

708
00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:58,759
Speaker 1: hit me immediately, and I said, this is incredible that

709
00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:04,480
Speaker 1: with the instrument that she has and that Blanche instrument

710
00:43:07,120 --> 00:43:10,600
Speaker 1: over here, right, And how easy it was for when

711
00:43:10,640 --> 00:43:12,680
Speaker 1: we when we started writing, because we did a song

712
00:43:12,719 --> 00:43:18,680
Speaker 1: called Liquor and right now, you know, we cand I'm

713
00:43:18,719 --> 00:43:23,080
Speaker 1: wishing I did now, but but it was the process

714
00:43:23,200 --> 00:43:26,560
Speaker 1: was easy and it was fun and it was like

715
00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:30,000
Speaker 1: you know, when you meet good people, it's easier. It

716
00:43:30,080 --> 00:43:31,840
Speaker 1: makes it, it makes it fun. And so he enjoyed.

717
00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:33,880
Speaker 1: So it bothers me when people act like R and

718
00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:36,080
Speaker 1: B is dead, you know, how did he? I was like,

719
00:43:36,320 --> 00:43:39,400
Speaker 1: there's so many artists that I love. He has a

720
00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:42,920
Speaker 1: whole new project with all these dope artists. Yes, all

721
00:43:42,920 --> 00:43:48,640
Speaker 1: these if there wasn't not dead and not at all.

722
00:43:48,719 --> 00:43:52,279
Speaker 1: And I think it's it's it's forever changing. It's not

723
00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:54,520
Speaker 1: it's not the nies, R and B. It's it's always

724
00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:58,160
Speaker 1: it's always evolving. And there are so many, so many

725
00:43:58,160 --> 00:44:02,160
Speaker 1: women now that that are just killing it, you know.

726
00:44:02,520 --> 00:44:04,200
Speaker 1: And so when you put it in terms of like

727
00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:07,120
Speaker 1: what's on the top of the charts, it's not always

728
00:44:07,120 --> 00:44:08,840
Speaker 1: about the charts at this point. In fact, it's not

729
00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:11,080
Speaker 1: you know, you got, you got Kaoli who's like it

730
00:44:11,200 --> 00:44:15,680
Speaker 1: was very rarely on the radio, but you see her people. Yeah,

731
00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:18,520
Speaker 1: that's that's just the thing is like today you can

732
00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:21,799
Speaker 1: you can touch people without going the traditional way, and

733
00:44:21,840 --> 00:44:24,799
Speaker 1: you just gotta you know their music. Your music will

734
00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:26,879
Speaker 1: get to them and you just be a great artist

735
00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:29,000
Speaker 1: and they'll find you. I know, and coming from a

736
00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:32,360
Speaker 1: timeless artist like Baby Fast, like Ari Lennox, I feel

737
00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:35,600
Speaker 1: like you're a timeless artist. Your voice and even songs

738
00:44:35,640 --> 00:44:38,400
Speaker 1: that you have is things that like certain songs like

739
00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:40,680
Speaker 1: this is for and there's nothing wrong with like something

740
00:44:40,719 --> 00:44:43,880
Speaker 1: that's for right now, but your songs are things that

741
00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:46,719
Speaker 1: like will transcend time that I feel like ten years

742
00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:49,320
Speaker 1: from now, they're still going to sound current, twenty years

743
00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:52,000
Speaker 1: from now forever. Classes you know, and Baby Faste like

744
00:44:52,000 --> 00:44:55,120
Speaker 1: even for you with younger kids discovering you after versus,

745
00:44:55,160 --> 00:44:58,040
Speaker 1: you said you got like seven hundred thousand new followers

746
00:44:58,200 --> 00:45:00,560
Speaker 1: just from that. But people will go listen to those

747
00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:03,720
Speaker 1: songs and those songs we were in here talking about

748
00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:05,799
Speaker 1: our favorite baby Face songs and we couldn't even think

749
00:45:05,800 --> 00:45:08,400
Speaker 1: and even songs that you wrote, you know for other people.

750
00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:11,799

00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:23,960
Speaker 1: I have like eight playlists. Let me go with this.

754
00:45:25,320 --> 00:45:27,920
Speaker 1: When it comes to music as well, definitely, but I

755
00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:30,160
Speaker 1: like to go all over the place with it because

756
00:45:30,200 --> 00:45:33,400
Speaker 1: I like songs that, like I could put on some motown,

757
00:45:33,920 --> 00:45:36,000
Speaker 1: I could put on some eighties nineties army, but then
