But all you've done? 0:02:27.960 --> 0:02:31.000 I mean, I guess you know, we've We've been talking 0:02:31.000 --> 0:02:35.519 about this lately, the songwriters, especially the females. We don't 0:02:35.560 --> 0:02:38.040 really I mean, y'all be getting to the bag. We 0:02:38.080 --> 0:02:39.800 get to a certain age and we'll be like, wait, 0:02:39.840 --> 0:02:43.760 what's happening? You know? And so it is as a 0:02:43.919 --> 0:02:47.400 it's a young boys sport. I feel in a certain 0:02:47.440 --> 0:02:51.120 way with the songwriting, just running around working for free, 0:02:51.200 --> 0:02:53.840 hoping that something lands. I've That's why I feel like 0:02:54.120 --> 0:02:55.480 I've been practicing this whole time. 0:02:55.600 --> 0:02:58.000 Yeah you know, I think that, But I think it's 0:02:58.040 --> 0:03:01.600 with you know, as you speak in comparison to women 0:03:01.639 --> 0:03:07.160 and men. I think the the I think the deciding 0:03:07.160 --> 0:03:10.560 factor in that a lot of times is family, you 0:03:10.560 --> 0:03:12.360 know what I mean, because when it comes when it 0:03:12.400 --> 0:03:15.560 comes to women, women are able to say, hey, man, 0:03:15.600 --> 0:03:18.040 you know this, the family thing is what I'm doing, 0:03:18.160 --> 0:03:21.040 and this now comes first. It's now comes back and 0:03:21.080 --> 0:03:23.360 speak to my own situation where you know, my wife 0:03:23.440 --> 0:03:26.440 was out dancing for everybody and being creative and doing 0:03:26.440 --> 0:03:28.240 the whole thing. And now we got one baby and 0:03:28.280 --> 0:03:30.240 she's like, Okay, I'm gonna dance a little bit, and 0:03:30.320 --> 0:03:33.800 now we got two babies. I can't dance. Oh, you 0:03:33.800 --> 0:03:36.120 know what I mean? And what would she like to 0:03:36.160 --> 0:03:39.120 be out there getting to it? Yeah, I would love 0:03:39.160 --> 0:03:42.080 for her too, to back to her younger day. She 0:03:42.120 --> 0:03:44.320 could do that. But then the family thing kind of. 0:03:44.960 --> 0:03:46.480 You know, I don't even have a family yet. I'm 0:03:46.520 --> 0:03:47.520 a dog mom, but. 0:03:49.920 --> 0:03:50.880 I'm a dog mob. 0:03:51.640 --> 0:03:55.000 But I do have that sense of like things it 0:03:55.120 --> 0:03:56.760 have to pivot, you know what I mean. Like I 0:03:56.760 --> 0:03:58.880 can't be in the studio to four five o'clock in 0:03:58.920 --> 0:04:01.920 the morning every day, you know, just on a whim, 0:04:02.040 --> 0:04:03.240 you know what I mean. I got about four or 0:04:03.280 --> 0:04:05.320 five hours for the studio. Now you know what I mean, 0:04:05.360 --> 0:04:07.800 And we got to get to it because I have other. 0:04:07.680 --> 0:04:09.680 Things to do. Your dialup is different now too, though. 0:04:09.840 --> 0:04:12.480 Yeah, like I'm not doing the twelve hour sessions for 0:04:12.480 --> 0:04:13.360 free them or. 0:04:13.240 --> 0:04:16.839 Like not for fun. 0:04:17.680 --> 0:04:19.479 Now you gotta have a bag, like you want me 0:04:19.520 --> 0:04:23.120 to come and care, and like come and care on time, 0:04:23.279 --> 0:04:25.960 and I might cook you a meal. Like I've become 0:04:26.000 --> 0:04:29.880 your person, you know what I'm saying. So it's like, 0:04:30.160 --> 0:04:32.640 I'm not just writing a song. It's therapy, it's love, 0:04:32.760 --> 0:04:36.480 it's you know, I'm giving a lot of myself, a. 0:04:36.480 --> 0:04:39.080 Real creative, a real creative. 0:04:39.200 --> 0:04:43.080 No, because I'm so glad that you said it that way, 0:04:43.320 --> 0:04:47.440 because people don't look at it as that's part of 0:04:47.480 --> 0:04:51.120 the service, right are They actually actually may some of 0:04:51.160 --> 0:04:53.039 them may just take that in as you know, selfish 0:04:53.040 --> 0:04:53.920 people may just take. 0:04:53.800 --> 0:04:55.400 That in as that it's just part of the service. 0:04:55.400 --> 0:04:57.720 She was here to do this, so she did that. Yeah. No, no, no, no, no, 0:04:57.720 --> 0:04:59.760 no no no. This is a different type of care. 0:05:00.640 --> 0:05:03.800 There's different type of love because the other part is, 0:05:05.040 --> 0:05:07.320 and I know this because I've known you for so long, 0:05:07.920 --> 0:05:14.080 you actually tailor make records. So it's not like, oh, 0:05:14.160 --> 0:05:17.960 here it goes forty songs I wrote over the last whatever, 0:05:18.000 --> 0:05:18.920 and you just pick one. 0:05:19.120 --> 0:05:20.040 Yes, no, no, no, no. 0:05:20.600 --> 0:05:23.960 You're from the school of we're gonna talk, We're gonna 0:05:23.960 --> 0:05:26.680 spend some time so that when you sing this song, 0:05:27.200 --> 0:05:29.000 you evoke a different type of emotion. 0:05:29.360 --> 0:05:29.960 Exactly. 0:05:30.200 --> 0:05:34.000 You might cry because you're gonna go back to the 0:05:34.000 --> 0:05:38.280 therapy session that we had earlier today when I cooked 0:05:38.320 --> 0:05:38.880 you this meal. 0:05:39.760 --> 0:05:41.760 And now we got these hit records exactly. 0:05:42.080 --> 0:05:44.560 And I wouldn't even necessarily say they were hit records. 0:05:44.560 --> 0:05:47.159 They were great songs, you know what I mean? Like 0:05:47.360 --> 0:05:51.080 I damn, I don't know if that I guess to 0:05:51.200 --> 0:05:53.400 me in my mind, you know, what is a hit? 0:05:53.600 --> 0:05:55.599 You know what I mean? Something that hits you in 0:05:55.600 --> 0:05:57.680 the heart, something that hits you in the soul. Like 0:05:58.000 --> 0:06:01.320 so like the hit traditionally, I don't think I've written 0:06:01.400 --> 0:06:04.080 one yet that that. 0:06:04.160 --> 0:06:06.279 You've written hits to me, to me too. 0:06:06.160 --> 0:06:09.960 Right, So yeah, but it's all spiritual, you know what 0:06:10.000 --> 0:06:12.720 I mean, Like even with Beyonce, like how I got. 0:06:13.080 --> 0:06:15.479 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, we just go We're gonna do 0:06:18.839 --> 0:06:21.320 someone had champagne somewhere close that we can pour. 0:06:23.040 --> 0:06:27.240 It feels it's all spiritual. Like the first time I 0:06:27.279 --> 0:06:29.120 met her, I was like, God, I need a miracle 0:06:29.160 --> 0:06:34.360 like this twenty eleven and marcella Dangerous partner hits me 0:06:34.560 --> 0:06:38.760 like you want to come and write for Beyonce? I 0:06:38.760 --> 0:06:42.479 didn't make that album. The next time I got to 0:06:42.560 --> 0:06:50.400 encounter her was at at a funeral, like randomly, and 0:06:50.440 --> 0:06:52.800 that's how I got to do Bigger and Brown Skin Girl, 0:06:53.040 --> 0:06:55.839 Like it took someone passing somebody that's very near and 0:06:55.880 --> 0:06:58.839 dear to all this Nipsey hustle rest in peace. But 0:06:59.720 --> 0:07:02.840 that's so it's all spiritual, you know what I mean. Like, so, 0:07:04.040 --> 0:07:05.599 I didn't even think she was gonna recognize me, but 0:07:05.640 --> 0:07:07.320 Evan Ross was like, hey, b you know you know 0:07:07.440 --> 0:07:12.480 Stacey birth Evan She sung at Evan Ross's birthday, I'm sorry, 0:07:12.600 --> 0:07:16.120 his mom's birthday party like weeks before and it passed away, 0:07:16.880 --> 0:07:19.760 and so so I'm like, damn, I don't want to 0:07:19.800 --> 0:07:23.120 bother her, like she canna remember me?

And 0:07:36.760 --> 0:07:38.520 so we were talking and we were the only two 0:07:38.560 --> 0:07:41.640 women in the room, and so we were just talking 0:07:41.680 --> 0:07:43.920 about childbirth and all this stuff. I'm like, I can't 0:07:43.920 --> 0:07:45.160 wait to have a kid. I just have to find 0:07:45.160 --> 0:07:50.760 some premium sperm. And we just see premium.

This is the kind of 0:08:12.920 --> 0:08:17.920 power and intent that I have. I will find you, 0:08:18.640 --> 0:08:20.600 and she found you, think me. 0:08:21.360 --> 0:08:22.200 So let's go to. 0:08:25.680 --> 0:08:30.600 You finding you, you finding you, you finding this gift? 0:08:32.840 --> 0:08:36.839 Give us little Stacy Brooklyn, New York. 0:08:37.400 --> 0:08:40.880 Oh God, as Tank would say, if somebody identified the 0:08:40.920 --> 0:08:43.640 gift or you identified as yourself, it took. 0:08:43.920 --> 0:08:47.719 I mean, so I was raised in Haiti and then 0:08:47.760 --> 0:08:48.560 came to America. 0:08:48.679 --> 0:08:50.600 Okay, oh so you were actually born in. 0:08:50.840 --> 0:08:53.760 No, no, no, I was born in Brooklyn and then like 0:08:53.960 --> 0:08:56.280 a month after I was born. My mom took me 0:08:56.320 --> 0:08:57.960 back to Haiti too so she can get herself. So 0:08:58.000 --> 0:08:59.880 she was nineteen when she had me, so she went 0:09:00.040 --> 0:09:02.320 to come back to America get things together before she 0:09:02.360 --> 0:09:04.600 brought me back. So I was living with my grandma 0:09:04.640 --> 0:09:06.720 in like a one room shack, and I thought that 0:09:06.760 --> 0:09:12.440 place was just the biggest place. Yeah. And so when 0:09:12.480 --> 0:09:15.120 I came to America, I was having a hard time 0:09:15.160 --> 0:09:18.440 fitting in. I was overweight, like I had big hair 0:09:18.520 --> 0:09:22.160 that my mom didn't quite know how to put me 0:09:22.200 --> 0:09:24.040 together yet, you know what I'm saying. So I begged 0:09:24.080 --> 0:09:26.000 her to go to private school. I'm like, girl, this 0:09:26.000 --> 0:09:27.360 this public school is brutal. 0:09:27.760 --> 0:09:28.160 Give me. 0:09:31.880 --> 0:09:34.480 A different mind. 0:09:34.520 --> 0:09:37.280 You you're talking to two public school kids, we know. 0:09:40.320 --> 0:09:44.040 Skipping in their uniforms, all happy. I was like, where 0:09:44.080 --> 0:09:47.960 y'all go? We on a different bus. 0:09:48.720 --> 0:09:51.920 At this point, I'm like eight, ok. Yeah. 0:09:52.200 --> 0:09:55.040 So I spent a year or two in public school, 0:09:55.080 --> 0:09:58.280 and then I begged my mom put me in private school. 0:09:58.320 --> 0:10:00.640 So in that same private school where I thought be safe, 0:10:02.080 --> 0:10:03.839 I used to pretend to pass out to leave school 0:10:03.880 --> 0:10:07.400 because the girls were very brutal. The girl these girls 0:10:07.440 --> 0:10:11.319 were like mean mean. I was like, okay, I'm getting 0:10:11.360 --> 0:10:12.040 all excited. 0:10:12.160 --> 0:10:14.320 Did you say pretend to pass out? Yeah? 0:10:15.240 --> 0:10:16.360 So I was like, am I going to do a 0:10:16.360 --> 0:10:18.640 deep dive? Am I going to do a knee and 0:10:18.720 --> 0:10:22.760 then a drop or what? Yeah? He got that crazy. 0:10:23.000 --> 0:10:24.679 So the first time it worked. 0:10:24.840 --> 0:10:30.080 I the first time it worked. Do you still breathe 0:10:30.080 --> 0:10:31.320 when you passed? No? 0:10:31.440 --> 0:10:33.120 That's why I used to fall on my face because 0:10:33.120 --> 0:10:34.920 that way you wouldn't even see if I was breathing 0:10:35.000 --> 0:10:36.640 or not, you know what I mean. I'm like, I'm 0:10:36.640 --> 0:10:40.600 gonna be on a ambulance. Get here, Yeah, and you 0:10:40.640 --> 0:10:42.640 hear it. I'm like, what if she's faking? What if 0:10:42.640 --> 0:10:47.800 she's said whatever? So went home. We lived in a 0:10:47.840 --> 0:10:50.920 two family houses, so the elder people downstairs knew I 0:10:51.000 --> 0:10:52.920 was upstairs. My mom went back to work, you know, 0:10:53.360 --> 0:10:58.800 I'm upstairs cooking, you know, watching TV. And I discovered 0:10:58.800 --> 0:11:02.360 biggie for the first time. And it was a video 0:11:02.600 --> 0:11:05.800 on a local access channel. Like it wasn't cable. We 0:11:05.840 --> 0:11:08.240 didn't have cable. It was just like random, if you 0:11:08.320 --> 0:11:11.160 fix the antenna a certain way, you could get your channel. 0:11:11.880 --> 0:11:14.559 So I think it was Bobby Simmon's Flavor video. And 0:11:14.600 --> 0:11:16.680 I was calling this nine hundred number that I could 0:11:16.679 --> 0:11:18.960 never get through. It was always busy because I saw 0:11:19.040 --> 0:11:21.000 Biggie for the first time and he said fat black 0:11:21.040 --> 0:11:24.760 and ugly. As ever, however, and that, however, changed my 0:11:24.840 --> 0:11:28.040 whole trajectory because I was like, he made me feel 0:11:28.080 --> 0:11:31.480 comfortable being that, you know what I mean. So I 0:11:31.600 --> 0:11:34.320 was like, yeah, okay, so I need to see him again. 0:11:34.320 --> 0:11:36.880 If I passed out around this time, they played it 0:11:37.320 --> 0:11:41.600 around this time, so I just kept doing it. Yeah, 0:11:41.720 --> 0:11:44.480 so I could see the video and then discovered a 0:11:44.480 --> 0:11:46.600 bunch of other videos. But that's that's the first time, 0:11:46.720 --> 0:11:52.559 Like it worked. So yeah, that, however, changed my whole 0:11:52.679 --> 0:11:55.240 life actually, you know, just in. 0:11:55.240 --> 0:11:57.000 Terms of just how you thought about yourself. 0:11:57.080 --> 0:12:02.360 Yeah, yeah, fat black and ugly. However, however, stay to 0:12:02.400 --> 0:12:08.400 the thoughts of space card on the class, you. 0:12:08.360 --> 0:12:14.320 Know, and you're still eight, so you're developing a mindset 0:12:14.320 --> 0:12:16.559 and the confidence early on about you know what. 0:12:17.720 --> 0:12:18.520 Let me just be. 0:12:19.400 --> 0:12:21.880 Yeah, not in school, but at home of course, of course, 0:12:22.360 --> 0:12:25.560 right there, I was still on the honor roll, still 0:12:25.559 --> 0:12:26.480 crushing it. 0:12:26.640 --> 0:12:30.320 Like, yeah, not in school, still on the honor roll. 0:12:31.080 --> 0:12:31.840 Not in school. 0:12:33.160 --> 0:12:35.120 High school got better. High school is way better. 0:12:35.240 --> 0:12:38.360 That's what music does too, though, right because I'm sure 0:12:38.400 --> 0:12:40.439 when he's writing that lyric, he's not thinking that. He's 0:12:40.440 --> 0:12:42.400 not thinking about the eight year old little girl at 0:12:42.440 --> 0:12:45.800 the house that he could inspire. He's wrapping on his 0:12:45.840 --> 0:12:48.880 ship exactly, you know what I mean, and rapping about 0:12:48.880 --> 0:12:55.560 his confidence. And I think that that isn't I don't 0:12:55.559 --> 0:12:59.840 know if that's studied enough in what we do, because 0:12:59.880 --> 0:13:02.720 I will take the effects of the negative part of it, 0:13:02.840 --> 0:13:03.560 do that all the time. 0:13:04.720 --> 0:13:08.400 But him. But just like you said that, that one line, however, 0:13:08.520 --> 0:13:10.600 change game changing for a kid. 0:13:10.840 --> 0:13:13.520 We don't have a Stacey Bark if we don't have that, 0:13:13.760 --> 0:13:14.439 Can I say that? 0:13:14.640 --> 0:13:14.960 Yeah? 0:13:15.000 --> 0:13:15.240 Wow? 0:13:15.559 --> 0:13:17.800 Facts?

I mean, even 0:26:46.840 --> 0:26:50.320 if it's some bullshit. They can play it because data 0:26:50.320 --> 0:26:53.720 and analytics, and the data and analytics didn't exist. It 0:26:53.840 --> 0:26:54.920 was like real persons. 0:26:55.280 --> 0:26:58.160 They've turned the music business into baseball. Yeah, because that's 0:26:58.240 --> 0:26:59.000 literally what I mean. 0:26:59.080 --> 0:27:04.480 That's the first place that I remember years ago, like 0:27:04.680 --> 0:27:06.920 watching I Forgot. I think it was the Boston Red 0:27:06.960 --> 0:27:09.359 Sox at the time, and it was like this young 0:27:10.040 --> 0:27:11.399 I can't think of the guy's name, but he was 0:27:11.480 --> 0:27:14.680 like the youngest general manager, and his whole shit was 0:27:14.720 --> 0:27:18.960 about analytics, how many times this and how many times that, 0:27:19.119 --> 0:27:23.800 and not really gauging the player in a sense, right, 0:27:24.040 --> 0:27:26.280 just looking at the numbers. And I think that's what 0:27:26.480 --> 0:27:30.199 we've become in music now, where they just gauge the numbers. 0:27:30.280 --> 0:27:32.159 They're not looking at the player, they're not looking at 0:27:32.400 --> 0:27:36.080 the developed artists, they're not looking at the season. They're 0:27:36.160 --> 0:27:41.360 looking at the Oh these numbers say, yeah. 0:27:42.280 --> 0:27:45.200 And numbers don't lie. But at the same time, numbers 0:27:45.280 --> 0:27:47.560 do lie, but they do in a sense where. 0:27:47.480 --> 0:27:50.840 Like numbers just don't tell the whole story exactly, they 0:27:50.880 --> 0:27:52.960 don't tell the whole story ahead whether. 0:27:52.840 --> 0:27:56.760 It's terrible or amazing, either way you're going to share it. 0:27:56.920 --> 0:28:01.159 So there's no gauge of like what's I really like it? Like, 0:28:01.240 --> 0:28:02.960 did I really like it? Or did I just hear 0:28:03.000 --> 0:28:04.040 it on TikTok a bunch of times? 0:28:04.040 --> 0:28:06.200 And I'm like, are you sending to some of your friends? 0:28:06.200 --> 0:28:07.119 It's look at this bullshit? 0:28:07.280 --> 0:28:10.080 Yeah right. 0:28:11.440 --> 0:28:12.800 At what I was going to. 0:28:12.800 --> 0:28:15.720 Say about the numbers, do lie, Let's keep it a buck. 0:28:17.119 --> 0:28:22.080 Niggas got phones that are somewhere in a garage just 0:28:22.359 --> 0:28:28.560 churning numbers.

When you go 0:28:55.120 --> 0:29:00.920 into that building and the people show up, Man, you 0:29:00.960 --> 0:29:03.600 can't make the people.

The hook I had 0:34:01.280 --> 0:34:03.120 on another song that didn't you know how you have 0:34:04.640 --> 0:34:07.920 but just it the beat got sold or whatever. 0:34:08.400 --> 0:34:09.960 It's a beautiful disaster. 0:34:09.880 --> 0:34:17.040 Yeah, separate beautiful disaster. And another song called Collide. 0:34:17.120 --> 0:34:22.680 And then when we Collide Collide is such it's massive 0:34:23.239 --> 0:34:26.400 is myself and I remember when you met her, you 0:34:26.480 --> 0:34:27.680 and you met her, like. 0:34:27.719 --> 0:34:31.520 Yo, how did you not your accent?

That's the lyric. Nowhere 0:35:49.280 --> 0:35:51.680 Like that's what songs like that represent to me. 0:35:53.239 --> 0:35:54.880 That means the world coming from you, guys, honestly, you 0:35:54.960 --> 0:35:55.640 know I feel about you. 0:35:55.960 --> 0:35:58.640 I literally still play that song probably at least once 0:35:58.680 --> 0:36:00.920 a month.

Being a part 0:37:27.680 --> 0:37:31.760 of a moment like Brown Skinned Girl, where Blue Ivy 0:37:31.840 --> 0:37:34.919 wins a Grammy, where the baby win. 0:37:34.880 --> 0:37:39.440 A Grammy was she was literally on my mind. Behold 0:37:39.560 --> 0:37:43.200 because so after Lemonade, like I'm thinking, okay, and then 0:37:43.960 --> 0:37:46.759 Beyonce and jay Z did this that album together, but 0:37:46.840 --> 0:37:52.759 I'm thinking post Lemonade, like what should she give? You 0:37:52.880 --> 0:37:54.839 know what I mean? And I was thinking abot Blue 0:37:54.840 --> 0:37:59.320 Ivy the whole time. So when and Bigger when it 0:37:59.400 --> 0:38:03.279 says trying to be a good wife still really hot, 0:38:03.360 --> 0:38:05.919 I can't try, but I promise you I will fight. 0:38:06.320 --> 0:38:06.919 So I fight. 0:38:07.239 --> 0:38:09.680 I'm thinking about Blue Ivy, like the reason why you 0:38:09.719 --> 0:38:11.959 would stick around. I mean this cause this was before 0:38:12.000 --> 0:38:14.400 she got pregnant with the twins. But she was always 0:38:14.440 --> 0:38:16.160 on my mind, like she was the first you know 0:38:16.200 --> 0:38:19.279 what I'm saying. So you know, Blue Ivy like my 0:38:19.360 --> 0:38:22.839 baby cousin that she don't even know. Girl, I love 0:38:22.920 --> 0:38:26.440 you to seek. So I was always thinking about her 0:38:26.480 --> 0:38:29.840 the whole time. And then she put Blue Ivy in 0:38:29.920 --> 0:38:34.439 the bigger video, put it out on my birthday, called 0:38:34.480 --> 0:38:35.640 it the gift. 0:38:36.719 --> 0:38:37.000 Wow. 0:38:37.280 --> 0:38:38.479 God, Like that's what I'm saying. 0:38:38.680 --> 0:38:38.919 Wow. 0:38:39.280 --> 0:38:41.640 The writing be spiritual, you know what I mean, Like 0:38:41.760 --> 0:38:46.560 it's not I'm not trying to right hits, Like it 0:38:46.680 --> 0:38:49.080 comes to me literally through God, you know what I mean. 0:38:50.840 --> 0:38:53.040 That's wow. Wow. 0:38:53.560 --> 0:38:55.319 So I'm thinking about the whole picture. I'm like, how 0:38:55.360 --> 0:38:59.240 will I Siss be feeling now? Forgiveness is key because 0:38:59.280 --> 0:39:02.880 we're part of some can way bigger, you know, like 0:39:03.040 --> 0:39:04.640 you have a family with this man, Like where are 0:39:04.640 --> 0:39:04.919 you going? 0:39:05.800 --> 0:39:08.160 You know that's crazy. 0:39:08.600 --> 0:39:13.000 That's amazing records, amazing amazing records.

And then people were working 0:39:27.880 --> 0:39:29.759 on verses and she chose mine, but it wasn't the 0:39:29.880 --> 0:39:32.560 same order, so I was like, oh, she didn't keep 0:39:32.560 --> 0:39:35.200 my verse. Whatever, Bigger still the first song on the album, 0:39:35.239 --> 0:39:38.279 still whatever, you know. And then my friend Fresh was like, nah, 0:39:38.320 --> 0:39:39.880 you got to listen to the whole song. It's the 0:39:39.960 --> 0:39:41.680 third verse. She used your verse. 0:39:41.760 --> 0:39:47.920 I was like, oh wow, so you even know I 0:39:48.080 --> 0:39:48.880 was bigger. 0:39:48.920 --> 0:39:50.840 I was like, girl, yes they got. 0:39:52.239 --> 0:39:53.920 Because people don't understand that at a certain level of 0:39:54.000 --> 0:39:55.920 artists too.

I'm like, I'm I'm 1:03:34.920 --> 1:03:37.760 like an extroverted introvert. So I just I just end 1:03:37.880 --> 1:03:41.840 up in the pool. Yeah, I was the only one. 1:03:42.560 --> 1:03:45.080 I was the only one in the pool, like at 1:03:45.120 --> 1:03:48.000 it the thousands of people in there, and I was 1:03:48.120 --> 1:03:50.000 just I just felt good in the pool. I was 1:03:50.080 --> 1:03:51.920 floating on the deep end. I knew nobody was going 1:03:51.960 --> 1:03:54.880 to come and swim over there because the deep end 1:03:55.440 --> 1:03:58.040 had to be like fourteen feet. I'm like, I'm safe 1:03:58.080 --> 1:03:59.480 over here, and. 1:04:01.240 --> 1:04:01.600 But I was. 1:04:01.760 --> 1:04:04.440 I was also a little inebriated. 1:04:04.640 --> 1:04:05.880 Did you bring a swimsuit? 1:04:06.360 --> 1:04:08.520 I did? It was under it was in Miami. You 1:04:08.720 --> 1:04:12.960 I always keep a swimsuit, Okay, okay, okay, so yeah, pressure, 1:04:14.640 --> 1:04:17.160 so yeah. I'm in there for hours though, and then 1:04:19.760 --> 1:04:22.040 while I'm getting out of the pool, I'm not no. Actually, 1:04:22.160 --> 1:04:24.000 while I'm sitting at the edge, I'm noticing that people 1:04:24.040 --> 1:04:25.560 are starting to get in and I don't want to 1:04:25.560 --> 1:04:33.880 get out, so I'm like, this, let me get out. 1:04:34.480 --> 1:04:37.760 So instead of going to the shallow and I climbed 1:04:37.960 --> 1:04:40.920 my tiny ass, you know, out of the pool, and 1:04:40.960 --> 1:04:43.400 I scraped the hell out of my leg, like, but 1:04:43.520 --> 1:04:45.840 I'm not noticing it because I'm I'm still kind of 1:04:45.880 --> 1:04:49.000 slightly underwater, so the water pressure is just like, I 1:04:49.080 --> 1:04:52.640 don't notice it. And I'm a little lit too, and 1:04:54.400 --> 1:04:57.760 so I'm like, oh, give me some galls and a 1:04:57.880 --> 1:05:01.280 band aid, I'd be fine. So I'm sitting down talking 1:05:01.360 --> 1:05:03.560 to people at this point, the sun has gone down. 1:05:03.680 --> 1:05:06.560 I'm not noticing that I'm bleeding through the galls the 1:05:06.680 --> 1:05:10.080 towel and everything, and I'm just like, oh, yeah, party 1:05:10.120 --> 1:05:11.880 in the day. Then I see my homie, I get 1:05:12.000 --> 1:05:15.480 up to hug them and I literally dropped to the floor. 1:05:15.480 --> 1:05:17.200 I passed out because I had lost so much blood. 1:05:18.680 --> 1:05:21.560 And so I don't know how they got me up 1:05:21.640 --> 1:05:24.040 on that hernia. But all I heard was somebody said, 1:05:24.040 --> 1:05:26.240 get her out of here before she gets her leg 1:05:26.280 --> 1:05:28.800 gets amputated. I don't know who that was. I just 1:05:28.880 --> 1:05:34.520 heard a screeching white woman saying like something to that effect, 1:05:35.200 --> 1:05:37.280 and then I put a whole I mean, there's thousands 1:05:37.280 --> 1:05:39.920 of people there, like eir, everybody's there. So I put 1:05:40.000 --> 1:05:43.160 the sheet over my head. And I really didn't want 1:05:43.160 --> 1:05:44.400 to go to the hospital. I didn't want know whaty 1:05:44.400 --> 1:05:45.960 to call the ambulance. I wanted to act like this 1:05:46.120 --> 1:05:49.200 never happened, like it was like no, no, no, you 1:05:49.280 --> 1:05:52.080 gotta go. You're bleeding like you're bleeding, and so I 1:05:52.120 --> 1:05:55.080 had to get tense dishes. And so that's the fuck 1:05:55.160 --> 1:05:57.480 up story.
