00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:04,400
Speaker 1: fan of your talent. You're a beautiful person and uh

39
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:08,640
Speaker 1: that watch you and danced dance with you so many

40
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:11,359
Speaker 1: years on the dance floor, so this feels like okay,

41
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 1: you know, okay, you know the music is still great, Jody,

42
00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:18,000
Speaker 1: but you know, music back in the day, I can

43
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 1: remember exactly where I was at on certain songs and uh,

44
00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:25,640
Speaker 1: you know, and that's where I can get kind of

45
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:27,480
Speaker 1: missing the day because you know, you're throwing the music

46
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 1: videos in there, so you kind of go back to

47
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:31,840
Speaker 1: the video before you go back to the moment when

48
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:34,480
Speaker 1: you was on that in that in that basement party,

49
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,560
Speaker 1: you know, just getting sweat, not enough like to see

50
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:39,919
Speaker 1: when you're dancing with you know, but you're they're just dancing,

51
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 1: you know that. And that is something about music, and

52
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:50,079
Speaker 1: it's true. It's so associated with growing up and memories

53
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:54,120
Speaker 1: and you know, just in so many ways and you know,

54
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:58,080
Speaker 1: good time, bad time, uh and and between times and

55
00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 1: so you know, my music, uh, it is a blessing

56
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:05,400
Speaker 1: because it spans so you know, continuing on. But you

57
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 1: know it represents um, you know, always a good time

58
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:11,919
Speaker 1: for people and that makes me happy. But what makes

59
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 1: me happy is that she and a person who you know,

60
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:18,840
Speaker 1: has has to sustain career relevance in this entertainment business

61
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:21,600
Speaker 1: because I've been in it, you know, for a long time,

62
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:24,360
Speaker 1: and being in it, you know, trying to stay because

63
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,679
Speaker 1: it's such a hard business because you can get and

64
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:30,919
Speaker 1: the discrimination happens, or ages and happens, sexism happens, and

65
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:33,560
Speaker 1: you know all those things, well you know, who is

66
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 1: she or what has she done later? What has he

67
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 1: done later? What have they done lately? That really permeates

68
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 1: really big in the entertainment game. It's kind of sad

69
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:47,000
Speaker 1: because of the fact that there's so much uncertainty in entertainment.

70
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 1: How did mentally from a mental standpoint, how have you

71
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:54,280
Speaker 1: been able to cope with that? Jody? You know, I

72
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 1: think throughout my life I'm very focused. I've always been

73
00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:03,880
Speaker 1: a person that UM has tried to have balance in

74
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 1: my life, which is very important in any profession. And UM,

75
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,400
Speaker 1: you know, never get too highs at the highs and

76
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 1: too low at the lows. And you know, it's always

77
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:19,200
Speaker 1: been important for me to UM, to be authentic and

78
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:22,560
Speaker 1: what I do, uh, to learn the business because I

79
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:25,400
Speaker 1: think a lot of people get messed up getting in

80
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 1: the entertainment industry and I did started as a teenager.

81
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:32,560
Speaker 1: But I've always been business minded. I mean when I

82
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:36,280
Speaker 1: was in junior high school. Um, I would I had

83
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 1: I call him side hustles. I was so close for people,

84
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:44,559
Speaker 1: I'd make pillows at my dad's church, or fry fish

85
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:51,640
Speaker 1: and and bake cupcakes to make money. We're gonna chicken

86
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:55,719
Speaker 1: and all that little bit later. Don't behind this stuff earlier,

87
00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:00,040
Speaker 1: So I understand. So my journey has always been and

88
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:03,520
Speaker 1: I think that really has helped me sustain in this business.

89
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 1: The uncertainty is because I've never been afraid of the work,

90
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:12,880
Speaker 1: never been afraid to say no, um, and very meticulous

91
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:17,600
Speaker 1: about what I do. And so if someone has I'm

92
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 1: not just enough, I'm not that enough, it never really

93
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 1: faces me. And I think it's important in life that

94
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:29,240
Speaker 1: you have to believe when no one else believes, and

95
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:33,120
Speaker 1: to keep doing the work in find ways to get

96
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,839
Speaker 1: it done. If if doors, I mean doors have closed

97
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:39,359
Speaker 1: on me, and I've opened new doors for myself because

98
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:42,840
Speaker 1: I'm continuing to do the work, you know, um, And

99
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:46,520
Speaker 1: it's very important and it really is important because really,

100
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:48,200
Speaker 1: when I look at your career, you know, because you've

101
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:51,680
Speaker 1: had success in a group okay Salama, and then you've

102
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 1: had tremendous success as an individual artist talk about working

103
00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:59,599
Speaker 1: with people and then the burden of being a solo artist.

104
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 1: There are different different things. That's a task when you

105
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:06,120
Speaker 1: buy yourself and you don't have nothing that nobody to

106
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:09,360
Speaker 1: lean on but yourself, and the decision and the appearances

107
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:11,720
Speaker 1: all on you. So talk about the success in a

108
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 1: group and the success as a solo artists just from

109
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:18,080
Speaker 1: an entertainment standpoint, so people can understand the difference. Well,

110
00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 1: you know, being in a group, being the only girl

111
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:24,280
Speaker 1: in the group and not actually being protected was very

112
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:27,880
Speaker 1: challenging for me, and you know it made me um.

113
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:30,360
Speaker 1: You know, again, I had to be tough, I had

114
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 1: to carry myself in a certain way being a woman

115
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:37,560
Speaker 1: in the business. If you're not kind of flighty or whatever,

116
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:41,359
Speaker 1: you know, you get labeled things that aren't always very flattering.

117
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 1: But again it's like I know who I am and

118
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:49,960
Speaker 1: I learned learned from it. So going solo actually has

119
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:53,719
Speaker 1: never been a burden. Actually it's been such a blessing

120
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:57,160
Speaker 1: because I get to do I get to own it

121
00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:00,599
Speaker 1: and to be in control of it and take people

122
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 1: to work with and not just do what I'm told,

123
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:06,360
Speaker 1: but to really craft. I've been able to really craft,

124
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 1: uh my own niche as an artist. For you know,

125
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:13,840
Speaker 1: I've been a solo artist now for over thirty five years,

126
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:18,560
Speaker 1: um and seven years before that and Shalo Marso I've

127
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 1: been you know, on this, on this journey. But then

128
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 1: a solo I like, I like running my own business,

129
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:27,800
Speaker 1: I really do, and so it's a joy. It's like,

130
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:30,400
Speaker 1: you know, it's a lot of responsibility picking you know,

131
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:34,640
Speaker 1: musicians and producers and um, but I'm about the business

132
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:37,760
Speaker 1: and so so I enjoy all the aspects of this.

133
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 1: But you're live performer, and we know the value of

134
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:45,880
Speaker 1: being a live performer. And the downside was the pandemic

135
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:48,680
Speaker 1: they are nobody saw our comming. I knew. I didn't

136
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:51,200
Speaker 1: see it coming, and not to the extreme when they

137
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:53,800
Speaker 1: talk about shut down, you know, because that really doesn't

138
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 1: hit you what they're talking about until it actually happened.

139
00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:58,640
Speaker 1: What does that mean shut down when you're talking about

140
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:02,120
Speaker 1: venus or close? Was they're talking about, you know, restaurant

141
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:07,000
Speaker 1: your clothes? And how did that whole process in your mind?

142
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 1: How was it starting the process as being just what

143
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:12,600
Speaker 1: they're talking about shutting Now? How did that whole process

144
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:15,320
Speaker 1: work for you? Because I'm jiousing it freaked me out. Okay,

145
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:19,600
Speaker 1: I think it's it had to freak all of us out,

146
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,560
Speaker 1: and I think, you know, at first, actually, to be

147
00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:24,600
Speaker 1: honest with you, one of the first things that I

148
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:28,520
Speaker 1: thought about was, I'm glad I've always lived below my

149
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:33,920
Speaker 1: means and above my means because you know, I'm glad

150
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 1: that I'm a songwriter. And I thought, you know, God,

151
00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 1: thank god I'm a songwriter, because I'm really going to

152
00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:41,920
Speaker 1: be living off my royalities now because there's not gonna

153
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:45,800
Speaker 1: be any concerts. And you know, two months into it,

154
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:51,120
Speaker 1: I went through a moment where I felt kind of that,

155
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 1: you know, because I like to hustle bus I love

156
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 1: performing and just you know, having this moment of pause.

157
00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:00,920
Speaker 1: I've always taken time off here there, but to actually

158
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:05,160
Speaker 1: be forced into it um and so we're trying. What

159
00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:08,319

00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:13,520
Speaker 1: keep myself busy, create some new revenue streams for myself.

161
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:19,000

162
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:22,079
Speaker 1: by the situation, to find ways to make things happen.

Speaker 1: it's just emotionally charging this The country in the world

232
00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:40,280
Speaker 1: is watching. And so when I hear a song called healing,

233
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:43,600
Speaker 1: tell us what the story behind it and what you're

234

Speaker 1: to reach with the healing? I mean, you know, because

236
00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:54,679
Speaker 1: my music has progressed so much over the years, and

237
00:13:54,960 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 1: I wrote this song before the pandemic came out, came about,

238
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:03,199
Speaker 1: and really I wanted to do a song to remind

239
00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:05,760
Speaker 1: people to no matter what's going on in the world,

240

272
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,640
Speaker 1: still got it going on. But obviously if you saw me,

273
00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:11,640
Speaker 1: you go, Okay, stop, you really need to stop trying

274
00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:14,400
Speaker 1: to dance to that something like that. I just had

275
00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:16,040
Speaker 1: to let you know that I was doing some bad

276
00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:18,680
Speaker 1: things over here, acting like I still had the skill set.

277
00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:22,240
Speaker 1: But I don't so the hoopiere rings because it's not

278
00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:25,800
Speaker 1: so much fun. First of all, Miss Joy. Yeah, I'm

279
00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:28,480
Speaker 1: enjoying this anyway because your energy is just on fire.

280
00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:31,120
Speaker 1: And and and we let me just tell you something.

281
00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:33,440
Speaker 1: You know, we we live in a stressed time because

282
00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:38,280
Speaker 1: of the fact that we um and I said that earlier,

283
00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:41,440
Speaker 1: we are talking about the election coming up, and it's

284
00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:44,760
Speaker 1: just great fear, you know, as as a black man,

285
00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:48,360
Speaker 1: you know, as a black person in general, but the

286
00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:52,040
Speaker 1: police has not been uh throughout our lives, not something recently.

287
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:55,240
Speaker 1: We've always had concerns when we got pulled over, especially

288
00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:59,840
Speaker 1: at night. And so unfortunately for George Floyd, like white

289
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:03,200
Speaker 1: well see it for the first time or acknowledge it

290
00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:08,640
Speaker 1: being stunned. Okay, yeah, and really it was eight minutes.

291
00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:11,320
Speaker 1: They didn't stopped because I like it when I see

292
00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:14,920
Speaker 1: white people out there protesting for for my carse yes,

293
00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:17,440
Speaker 1: I and I agree with you because I think that

294
00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:20,440
Speaker 1: will make the ultimate difference because like you said, we

295
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:25,480
Speaker 1: were used to this unfortunately, but it's gonna take white people,

296
00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:29,880
Speaker 1: um to get involved. So seeing them out there protesting

297
00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:34,800
Speaker 1: and you know, I mean, you know, painting Black Lives

298
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:37,840
Speaker 1: Matter on their cars and businesses and everything. But we

299
00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:42,480
Speaker 1: really do need um some change here, and um you know,

300
00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:44,880
Speaker 1: but they that was a big difference because I've never

301
00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:50,480
Speaker 1: seen that many um you know, that diversity and so

302
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:54,560
Speaker 1: that yeah, I was I was stunning myself. Okay, Okay,

303
00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:57,200
Speaker 1: you know when you when you see it march, you know, okay,

304
00:17:57,280 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 1: white people, white people walking by the camera, white people,

305
00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:02,760
Speaker 1: white people, black white people, white people, black black white people,

Speaker 1: fantastic time, you know, talking to you about just life

404
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:42,760
Speaker 1: in general, because of the fact that you know, first

405
00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:46,159
Speaker 1: of all, you're an entrepreneur and your independent thinker and

406
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:50,879
Speaker 1: uh and the part about success, I know that and

407
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:53,440
Speaker 1: I tell people all the time, you know, being successful

408
00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:56,280
Speaker 1: in the entertainment business rough because everybody sees your can

409

Speaker 1: see you. Okay, you know you've been successful it IBM,

410

Speaker 1: nobody sees you. I'm not saying this name, but nobody

411
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:04,440
Speaker 1: sees you. But when you're entertainment, they see you. They

412
00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:06,760
Speaker 1: know they might know how much money you're making. They

413
00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:09,119
Speaker 1: can they know the ticket prices, they know the size

414
00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:11,480
Speaker 1: of the venues you play, and so that takes a

415
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:16,240
Speaker 1: mental toll on what people can perceive you being a

416
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:19,800
Speaker 1: wanting to be a capable of producing and so so
