72
00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:56,880

73
00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:59,120
Speaker 3: who got to really be outside, like with your friends.

74
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 3: All day and it was just competitive. Like I was

75
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:04,400
Speaker 3: around like an older crowd, but I never got to

76
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 3: like be with them, you know, so I just played

77
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 3: basketball all day. But Savannah was fun bro Like. Of

78
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:12,240
Speaker 3: course it has its bad you know areas and stuff

79
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:13,120
Speaker 3: like that, but where I.

80
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:16,359
Speaker 5: Was, it was from what's your best memory as a child.

81
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 2: Oh, my best memory as a child.

82
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 3: Probably when I played for the boys club Frank Callum

83
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:25,760
Speaker 3: Boys and Girls Club, the cheerleader.

84
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 2: I played baseball with the boys.

85
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 3: I was a pitcher, and those times I really just

86
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:32,799
Speaker 3: molded me into the person I am today. Like that's

87
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 3: why I think recreational centers and stuff like that for

88
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 3: the kids are so important because I had a lot

89
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 3: of coaches that was like father figures and I was

90
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 3: just like the prominent thing that I had in Savannah.

91
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:45,800

295
00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:24,520

00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:55,600
Speaker 3: pretty much it. That was the highlight from that because

497
00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:56,879
Speaker 3: I was so locked in, like when I go to

498
00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:59,200

499
00:18:59,240 --> 00:18:59,880

00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:01,639

Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, so you go, we're gonna transition to your

502
00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:10,879
Speaker 5: other I don't know if it's a hobby, your passion,

503
00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:16,560
Speaker 5: your passion, your maine depreciow the rap game. You're making

504
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 5: your name as a rapper now it's I don't know

505
00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:21,760
Speaker 5: if they're like like a lot of time, like if

506
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:24,360
Speaker 5: my dad or my mom was a doctor or this

507
00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:27,280
Speaker 5: or that, you know, kids followed in that profession. I

508
00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:31,159
Speaker 5: don't know if they're like somebody has a dad that

509
00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:33,760
Speaker 5: was a rapper or a mob that was a rapper

510
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:37,160
Speaker 5: and then the daughter tried to follow it in those footsteps.

511
00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:40,600
Speaker 5: Was that was that a conscious decision that you wanted

512
00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:42,520
Speaker 5: to be a rapper or was it something that just happened.

513
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:45,480
Speaker 3: It wasn't a conscious decision. It just got pulled to me, like,

514
00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:46,760
Speaker 3: excuse me.

515
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:48,720
Speaker 2: It was different from me because my daddy got killed,

516
00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:50,600
Speaker 2: Like you know what I'm saying. He got murdered, right,

517
00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:51,840
Speaker 2: and he was.

518
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:54,600
Speaker 3: Doing this and I just had such a strong connection

519
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:57,439
Speaker 3: to him, to his music, right because I didn't know

520
00:19:57,520 --> 00:19:58,760
Speaker 3: him and I never got to meet him.

521
00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:00,600
Speaker 2: So it's different from when I do.

522
00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:03,560
Speaker 3: Music because it's really coming from within, you know, like

523
00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:05,840
Speaker 3: it's coming from the pain, you know what I'm saying,

524
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:07,800
Speaker 3: of not having my dad and him wanted to live

525
00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:10,560
Speaker 3: out his dream and then they're being taken away from him.

526
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:12,520
Speaker 3: But in some ways, I just feel like God gave

527
00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:14,040
Speaker 3: it to me. So I feel like that's why people

528
00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:16,080
Speaker 3: don't understand, like they think it low. She just want

529
00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:17,320
Speaker 3: to wrap and she want to hoop. But it's like no,

530
00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:19,640
Speaker 3: like I'm doing something bigger than me, Like I want

531
00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:21,800
Speaker 3: to fulfill my father's legacy and people can know his

532
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:23,919
Speaker 3: name more than mine, you know what I'm saying. And

533
00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:25,720
Speaker 3: so it's just a different duty for me. It's why

534
00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:28,119
Speaker 3: I just I worked so hard to balance it, you

535
00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:29,920
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying. But it's not like my dad

536
00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:31,480
Speaker 3: doing this, so I'm doing I never seen my dad

537
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:34,080
Speaker 3: do it, right, you know what I'm saying I just

538
00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:36,320

Speaker 5: how was it meeting there? Because excuse me the rap Latifa.

560
00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:32,600
Speaker 5: I don't think Latifa gets the credit that she deserves.

561
00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:35,359
Speaker 5: When they start talking about a women rapper, you know,

562
00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:38,040
Speaker 5: everybody naturally go to nick In rightfully so and Little

563
00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:43,320
Speaker 5: Cam and Foxy Brown, but Latifa mc light those are Missy.

564
00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:45,600
Speaker 2: Like is a rock man.

565
00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:50,239
Speaker 3: I'm like, well, those women right there, they're different. And

566
00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:52,239
Speaker 3: I say that because Queen Latifa is everything that I

567
00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:54,959
Speaker 3: really want to be as far as.

568
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:58,119
Speaker 2: All around goddess. The girl's the legend.

569
00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:02,719
Speaker 3: She's from Cleo to miss Likeeople do everything. Then the music,

570
00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:04,199
Speaker 3: it made me fall in love with her when I

571
00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:06,520
Speaker 3: dug back into that because I didn't know, yeah, you

572
00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:08,639
Speaker 3: know my generation, she's just an actor. But then I

573
00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:11,560

574
00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:14,879

Speaker 3: Like that's like perseverance.

576
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:17,760
Speaker 2: That's great, And I feel like for me, like, you

577
00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:20,280
Speaker 2: gotta respect the ladies that come before you. You know

578
00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:20,720
Speaker 2: what I'm saying.

579
00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:22,920
Speaker 3: You have to learn from that because like you're gonna

580
00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:25,520
Speaker 3: get closer to your creativity. And when it was originated,

581
00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:27,680
Speaker 3: and I just feelt you gotta pay homage like Missy

582
00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:31,560
Speaker 3: she put on for the dark skinned woman and yeah,

583
00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:33,800

584
00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:35,160
Speaker 1: Wearing missus ahead of her time.

586
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:40,359
Speaker 5: but her videos are all futuristic. They would be I

587
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:42,080
Speaker 5: mean that was in the nineties, in the early two

588
00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:45,680

Speaker 3: to walk in and be loud and be boastful and

601
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:17,119
Speaker 3: be arrogant, you know what I'm saying, to be a

Speaker 3: lost in this art. Like really it was like artist development, right,

610
00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:38,000

Speaker 3: and just how he came back and doubled back with

628
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:17,720
Speaker 3: the rap game.

629
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:18,840
Speaker 2: He understood it again.

630
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:20,680
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying that I feel like he

631
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:22,639
Speaker 3: could do it again, you know what I'm saying. So

632
00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:25,120
Speaker 3: I think he just understand that blueprint. And some people

633
00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:27,320
Speaker 3: are just gifted, you know what I'm saying, and they

634
00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:29,159
Speaker 3: really work hard and explore their talents.

635
00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:31,080
Speaker 2: A lot of people don't. But he had the eye

636
00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:31,359
Speaker 2: for it.

637
00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:34,320
Speaker 5: That's what I think Loto was on. Was on that

638
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:37,080
Speaker 5: rap game and she won. Did that make you want

639
00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:37,720
Speaker 5: to get what?

640
00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:41,199
Speaker 2: Yes? When I was, I got you. I think I

641
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:41,760
Speaker 2: was like twelve.

642
00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:44,159
Speaker 3: All I see is kid rappers, and I'm a kid rapper,

643
00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:46,520
Speaker 3: I think I am. And I see all these kids

644
00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:49,080
Speaker 3: and I'm like bro. First first season, I seen a

645
00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:52,160
Speaker 3: lot of little Niko. I think it was like young Lyric.

646
00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:56,000
Speaker 3: I was like super PG. Today was all walking and rapping.

647
00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:58,359
Speaker 2: I was like, oh my gosh, this is so cool.

648
00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:00,359
Speaker 2: I was the mission.

649
00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:02,320
Speaker 3: That was my mission was to get on that show.

650
00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:04,680
Speaker 3: I had no other mission. I was like, I'm gonna

651
00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:05,280
Speaker 3: get on that show.

652
00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:07,679
Speaker 5: Didn't did the rap at that point? At that juncture

653
00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:11,119
Speaker 5: of your life? Was rap more important than basketball.

654
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:11,960
Speaker 2: At that point? Yeah?

655
00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:14,480
Speaker 3: Because with basketball I was just going on the court

656
00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:16,600
Speaker 3: every day working myself out. I never had a trainer,

657
00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:18,960
Speaker 3: walk into La Fitness, playing the guys all day, like

658
00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:20,960
Speaker 3: that's all I did until, like, like.

659
00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:23,800
Speaker 2: My coach J shout out coach j He he was like.

660
00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:25,920
Speaker 3: FLA, like you could play in like you could play

661
00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:27,520
Speaker 3: in college, Like you can go to college for this,

662
00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:29,199
Speaker 3: And we're like, no, I can't. I didn't know, like

663
00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:32,360
Speaker 3: the WNBA wasn't prevalent or nothing like this, So I'm

664
00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:33,000
Speaker 3: thinking about rap.

665
00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:34,320
Speaker 2: I'm like, I just do this on the side.

666
00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:34,960
Speaker 1: He'd be like nah.

667
00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:37,320
Speaker 3: Like and then like coach Yo from Old Miss, she

668
00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:39,880
Speaker 3: was like, I'm offering you a scholarship. And I was like, Wow,

669
00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:42,280
Speaker 3: That's when I kind of started believing in the basketball.

670
00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:47,160
Speaker 1: But you still have never left that rap.

671
00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:50,040
Speaker 5: Even though you think about basketball and you devote a

672
00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:51,960
Speaker 5: lot of time to basketball, and you make sure you

673
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,120
Speaker 5: get your shots up, you make sure you get your rest,

674
00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:56,320
Speaker 5: and you make sure you hit the training and the

675
00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:59,720
Speaker 5: weight room, but still there's something about that rap that

676
00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:00,760
Speaker 5: just hugs that fly.

677
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:04,560
Speaker 3: It because so many people doubt me, like and I

678
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:06,639
Speaker 3: feel like people don't give me a chance because I

679
00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:08,640
Speaker 3: play basketball, Like you know what I'm saying, they don't

680
00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:09,520
Speaker 3: really give a chance to it.

681
00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:11,560
Speaker 2: But it's just something that.

682
00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:13,800
Speaker 3: Just when I can't stop, I can't stop recording, I

683
00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:15,920
Speaker 3: can't stop making music. Like when you know you get

684
00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:18,280
Speaker 3: that joy from something, that joy where you could be

685
00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:18,760
Speaker 3: doing it for.

686
00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:19,760
Speaker 2: Hours and you don't care.

687
00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:22,840
Speaker 3: That's the joy I get from making music, And that's

688
00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:24,960
Speaker 3: the same joy I get from being in the workout right.

689
00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:27,000
Speaker 3: So it's like, I know I'm supposed to be doing this.

690
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:28,240
Speaker 2: I can't put it down.

691
00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:31,080
Speaker 5: What you're unique in that way because it's not like

692
00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:34,960
Speaker 5: Nicki has another hobby that she's probably just as passionate about,

693
00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:38,160
Speaker 5: or she's just as good at as rap. You happen

694
00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:40,679
Speaker 5: to be an athlete that can dribble the basketball, can

695
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:42,159
Speaker 5: shoot to put the ball in the hoop at an

696
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:46,960
Speaker 5: elite level, but you also equally a breast at getting

697
00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:47,680

Speaker 3: from my background.

784
00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:41,760
Speaker 2: And they could feel what I'm saying.

785
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:44,600
Speaker 3: And that's what I did on America's Got Talent, went

786
00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:46,720
Speaker 3: on there and told my story, wrote a song called

787
00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:49,560
Speaker 3: guns Down and Honor my father, and then a high

788
00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:52,600
Speaker 3: school shooting at that time had happened in in Florida,

789
00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:55,120
Speaker 3: so it was like I put I wrote that and

790
00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:58,760
Speaker 3: man like they connected and Simon Kyle came to the

791
00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:01,440
Speaker 3: back of the of like on the stage, was like yes.

792
00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:03,240
Speaker 3: He was like, one day You're gonna be a superstar.

793
00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:05,160
Speaker 3: It's on video, go get it. And he said, one

794
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:06,840
Speaker 3: day You're gonna be a superstar. You don't know what

795
00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:08,120
Speaker 3: that different my confidence?

796
00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:11,240
Speaker 2: I walked wrong, but I walked around everything. I'm like, y'all,

797
00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:11,760
Speaker 2: I'm a star.

798
00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:13,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, you say what Simon said.

799
00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:15,720
Speaker 2: Y'all heard what Simon Simon said.

800
00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:22,120
Speaker 3: Yes, Simon said no literally, But when he said that,

801
00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:24,840
Speaker 3: it was like confidence because I didn't think I had

802
00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:25,360
Speaker 3: it in music.

803
00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:27,800
Speaker 2: Because America's Got Talent called me after the Rap game.

804
00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:29,040
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. That's why I'd be like

805
00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:30,920
Speaker 2: when yo, when you get take your l.

806
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:32,960
Speaker 3: You got to learn the lesson, and the lesson from

807
00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:35,480
Speaker 3: the Rap Game was to get ready for America's Got Talent.

808
00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:37,240
Speaker 2: Because when I lost the Rap Game, I was so hurt.

809
00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:39,120
Speaker 2: I went up to my room. I was writing.

810
00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:40,880
Speaker 3: I ain't even leave my room for about a mother too,

811
00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:42,760
Speaker 3: Like I was just writing, like I'm upstairs writing in

812
00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:44,480
Speaker 3: my book all day. Then America Got Talent called, and

813
00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:46,840
Speaker 3: I was prepared because I took that L. So I

814
00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:48,040
Speaker 3: was ready, you know what I'm saying.

815
00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:50,840
Speaker 2: And man, but my life changed after that. And on

816
00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:52,840
Speaker 2: America's Got Talent for sure, you.

817
00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:57,120
Speaker 5: Mentioned that when it wasn't your time in the Rap Game,

818
00:31:57,200 --> 00:32:00,400
Speaker 5: you lost that you said, I just I took my L.

819
00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:02,880
Speaker 1: But how were you? I mean, you're so young.

820
00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:05,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, and that's that's the hardest part is to is

821
00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:09,360
Speaker 5: dealing with disappointment because we want what we want when

822
00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:12,760
Speaker 5: we want it, and we cannot see past that moment.

823
00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:18,479
Speaker 5: But you were mature enough to understand this isn't the end,

824
00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:19,880
Speaker 5: this is only the beginning.

825
00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:22,800
Speaker 2: Yes, that's why I knew I was different. And you

826
00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:23,280
Speaker 2: know what I'm saying.

827
00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:24,320
Speaker 3: I ain't know what it was, but I knew I

828
00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:26,440
Speaker 3: was different because some folks would crumble and was like, Okay,

829
00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:27,880
Speaker 3: I'm like, I'm just chilling the music.

830
00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:30,400
Speaker 2: But it made me mad, like you know what I'm saying.

831
00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:31,440
Speaker 2: It made me mad like I was.

832
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:33,120
Speaker 1: Mad at jab became me more driven.

833
00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:35,320
Speaker 2: What Yes, I was mad at you made the pre

834
00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:38,240
Speaker 2: you know what I said. But now that I look

835
00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:40,280
Speaker 2: bad like you made the right decision, I'm like, you

836
00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:41,600
Speaker 2: ain't gonna pick me? He know who? I like?

837
00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:44,240
Speaker 3: It took me there, So it's how you use that

838
00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:46,760
Speaker 3: adversity though. You know my dad always say, you know,

839
00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:49,120
Speaker 3: take the d the disc off a disadvantage, you know

840
00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:50,160
Speaker 3: what I'm saying, and.

841
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:53,200
Speaker 2: You can really see your future. Then I just knew

842
00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:54,000
Speaker 2: I was gonna be big.

843
00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:56,040
Speaker 3: I don't know how, I know why, but I was like,

844
00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:57,720
Speaker 3: if I go on this stage on America Got Talent

845
00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:00,360
Speaker 3: and rap to these people and they feel me, anybody

846
00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:01,360
Speaker 3: could feel me, you know what I'm.

847
00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:03,040
Speaker 1: Saying, And you started crying.

848
00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:07,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, what was it about that performance that connected you

849
00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:11,240
Speaker 5: with you and touch you so much that the emotions

850
00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:12,120
Speaker 5: spilled out?

851
00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:15,320
Speaker 3: It touched me so much because I was every day

852
00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:18,160
Speaker 3: I was watching America's Got Talent videos just trying to

853
00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:18,880
Speaker 3: make myself cry.

854
00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:20,360
Speaker 2: I don't know why. I used to just love to

855
00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:22,440
Speaker 2: watch the Golden Buzzers and the stories. You know what

856
00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:23,440
Speaker 2: I'm saying, I don't know why.

857
00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:27,680
Speaker 3: And when I seen that confetti falling, and it was

858
00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:30,120
Speaker 3: just like a realization of like, Wow, your dreams can

859
00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:32,840
Speaker 3: come true. You know what I'm saying, Like your dreams

860
00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:37,920
Speaker 3: can come true if you stay prepared, persevere poor preparation,

861
00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:38,680
Speaker 3: prevent poor.

862
00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:41,240
Speaker 2: Performance, stay prepared, and you make it happen. And it

863
00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:42,960
Speaker 2: was just it was it was too much for me.

864
00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:45,760
Speaker 2: That's why I was crying. But it was really a realization.

865
00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:47,760
Speaker 3: And then I thought I couldn't get the Golden Buzzer

866
00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:49,840
Speaker 3: because I didn't know how to pro pross work. I

867
00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:53,000
Speaker 3: had judge cuts and a new judge came because they

868
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:55,040
Speaker 3: gave all their golden buzzes away before I performed my

869
00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:56,840
Speaker 3: first song. Oh you know what I'm saying, So I'm

870
00:33:56,840 --> 00:33:57,600
Speaker 3: going to the next round.

871
00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:02,280
Speaker 2: I'm like, bro I got so when he hit that,

872
00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:05,200

00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:07,680
Speaker 2: oh my gosh, and this I knew, like I could

874
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:08,160
Speaker 2: do music.

875
00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:13,640
Speaker 5: Your dad, if I'm not mistaken, I'm I don't know

00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:16,160
Speaker 5: your dad personally, but obviously I went to school in Savannah.

877
00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:18,320
Speaker 5: I spent time in Savannah, so I know who he is.

878
00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:23,479
Speaker 5: And if I'm not mistaken, he died before you were born,

879
00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:28,720
Speaker 5: even though you did not have a personal physical connection

880
00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:31,759
Speaker 5: with him, how did that impact you growing up?

881
00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:35,400
Speaker 2: It hurt me. I ain't gonna lie, like, because.

882
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:37,279
Speaker 1: So many people knew your dad is your dad was

883
00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:38,640
Speaker 1: a thing in.

884
00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:44,520
Speaker 2: Savanna what And it sucked being reminded of that. A story.

885
00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:49,759
Speaker 3: That is, everybody got a story, and it just hurt

886
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:51,040
Speaker 3: because it was like I never.

887
00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:52,200
Speaker 2: Could make no stories with him.

888
00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:54,359
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying, y'all telling me stories how

889
00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:56,359
Speaker 3: he was the coolest cat. He just like you, y'all

890
00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:59,320
Speaker 3: just solike, and it's just like what I'm gonna do

891
00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:00,440
Speaker 3: with that, I'm saying.

892
00:35:00,480 --> 00:35:02,120
Speaker 2: So that's I was. I was angry when I was

893
00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:04,239
Speaker 2: a kid. I was wool, I was bad, and I

894
00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:05,920
Speaker 2: was angry. And I was trying to forget why I

895
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:06,640
Speaker 2: was so angry.

896
00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:08,359
Speaker 3: Because I didn't think it was because I was missing

897
00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:10,000
Speaker 3: my father, because that was the only thing I knew.

898
00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:12,000
Speaker 2: That was my normal, right, So I didn't think it

899
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:14,320
Speaker 2: would hurt me. But as I got older, I started seeing.

900
00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:17,800
Speaker 1: Like, okay, kids bringing the kids, their dad going to

901
00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:19,040
Speaker 1: the game, watching.

902
00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:22,280
Speaker 2: Them the game, they dad training them. They my friend's

903
00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:24,200
Speaker 2: telling me my dad making me mad, he making me

904
00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:26,239
Speaker 2: go to practice. I'm like, I wish I could have.

905
00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:28,400
Speaker 3: That's what I'm saying in my head. I wish my

906
00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:30,160
Speaker 3: dad had made me. You know what I'm saying, Yes,

907
00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:32,479
Speaker 3: but I'm making myself go every single day. I'm walking

908
00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:34,600
Speaker 3: myself to the gym like I don't have nobody.

909
00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:36,239
Speaker 2: So that was irritating.

910
00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:38,520
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna lie, like, I understand the trauma coming

911
00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:41,600
Speaker 3: from it, and I just feel like if my dad

912
00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:42,960
Speaker 3: was here, I wouldn't have had to go through so

913
00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:44,640
Speaker 3: many situations, right you know.

914
00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:48,400
Speaker 5: Hold on, I also read that at the time, and

915
00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:51,320
Speaker 5: because I, like I said, I knew he was holding

916
00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:52,520
Speaker 5: a child when he got shot.

917
00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:56,719

Speaker 3: that's all, and it broad it's just who growing up

933
00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:42,840

00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:16,200
Speaker 3: Mokey like really believed in my want to do both aspirations,

1177
00:46:16,239 --> 00:46:18,480
Speaker 3: and I felt LSU brand was big enough to catapult

1178
00:46:18,520 --> 00:46:19,160
Speaker 3: me that to that level.

1179
00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:22,800

00:46:25,800 --> 00:46:27,880
Speaker 3: So I was like, I want to be around a

1183
00:46:27,920 --> 00:46:31,000
Speaker 3: recognizable brand. But also Coach Mokey was so gangster and

1184
00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:33,080
Speaker 3: laying it out like you could wrap you could go

1185
00:46:33,160 --> 00:46:34,960

1186
00:46:35,120 --> 00:46:36,000

1193
00:46:49,120 --> 00:46:50,839
Speaker 2: because coach, mok. She's a business woman. But she didn't

1194
00:46:50,840 --> 00:46:52,360
Speaker 2: deal my light. And she was like, if you go

1195
00:46:52,520 --> 00:46:54,200
Speaker 2: play basketball, you're gonna give me everything you got, but

1196

1199
00:46:57,440 --> 00:47:00,160
Speaker 3: me telling everybody, but she she just respected us. So

Speaker 1: And she played the position. She played the guards. She

1204
00:47:12,400 --> 00:47:14,640
Speaker 1: was on the lady teams, the tech.

1205
00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:16,320
Speaker 3: Let me tell you why the monkey tough because she

1206
00:47:16,360 --> 00:47:18,319
Speaker 3: don't play mind games with you like some coach. They

1210
00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:27,680
Speaker 3: she gonna be like you ready to ball? And so

1211
00:47:27,920 --> 00:47:30,160
Speaker 3: like you gotta take that, eat that and be ready

1212
00:47:30,200 --> 00:47:30,920

Speaker 3: all the NI opportunities, but all the opportunities of people

1246
00:48:52,360 --> 00:48:54,320
Speaker 3: to watch women basketball and the game growth.

1247
00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:56,560
Speaker 2: It's like, Bro, people don't know.

1248
00:48:56,640 --> 00:48:59,200
Speaker 3: We have mountains of little girls now that want to

1249
00:48:59,239 --> 00:49:03,160
Speaker 3: play basketball elite level. You know what I'm saying, Like

1250
00:49:03,280 --> 00:49:04,880
Speaker 3: women's sports is on the rise, and you know, I

1251
00:49:05,040 --> 00:49:07,279
Speaker 3: was just happy and grateful to be a part of that.

1252
00:49:07,480 --> 00:49:07,680
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1253
00:49:08,600 --> 00:49:10,439
Speaker 5: Is it true that your teams didn't want to play

1254
00:49:10,440 --> 00:49:12,480
Speaker 5: with you in the open gym because you was talking track.

1255
00:49:12,520 --> 00:49:14,560
Speaker 1: How you go? How you go? Just step o camp?

1256
00:49:14,560 --> 00:49:16,400
Speaker 1: But they just start talking I learned my.

1257
00:49:16,520 --> 00:49:16,920
Speaker 2: Lesson, bro.

1258
00:49:17,040 --> 00:49:19,879
Speaker 3: They literally stopped doing the runs.

1259
00:49:19,920 --> 00:49:21,320
Speaker 2: They was like, fly, we don't want to play with you.

1260
00:49:21,520 --> 00:49:23,680
Speaker 2: Like I was talking crazy though, Like I was coming

1261
00:49:24,000 --> 00:49:28,080
Speaker 2: on that hard marking for no reason, Like I would't say.

1262
00:49:28,000 --> 00:49:29,640
Speaker 3: Now that I look bad, Like if a freshman came in,

1263
00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:31,880
Speaker 3: I'd be like, bro, what's up with her? And like

1264
00:49:32,280 --> 00:49:33,920
Speaker 3: they didn't want to play with me no more? And

1265
00:49:34,080 --> 00:49:35,839
Speaker 3: so I was like, why nobody want to do runs?

1266
00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:36,080
Speaker 3: No more?

1267
00:49:36,200 --> 00:49:37,680
Speaker 2: Folks don't want to get better. They had me in

1268
00:49:37,760 --> 00:49:41,000
Speaker 2: a little circle or whatever. They was like, yeah, you know,

1269
00:49:41,080 --> 00:49:42,080
Speaker 2: we just want to talk to you.

1270
00:49:42,239 --> 00:49:43,920
Speaker 3: You know, certain players like I could play, but they

1271
00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:45,600
Speaker 3: don't want to. They don't talk like that. You know

1272
00:49:45,640 --> 00:49:46,040
Speaker 3: what I'm saying.

1273
00:49:46,080 --> 00:49:46,680
Speaker 2: You gotta chill.

1274
00:49:47,360 --> 00:49:48,759
Speaker 3: And I was like, bro, if y'all had a problem,

1275
00:49:48,840 --> 00:49:50,600
Speaker 3: y'all could have just told me to fly and I

1276
00:49:50,640 --> 00:49:52,120
Speaker 3: would have shut up, like you know what I'm saying.

1277
00:49:52,239 --> 00:49:54,400
Speaker 3: But that's how I play, Like that's how we puppet.

1278
00:49:54,480 --> 00:49:57,360
Speaker 2: But yeah, they don't want to play with me. They

1279
00:49:57,400 --> 00:49:59,360
Speaker 2: want to play with y'all. Was a bad little freshman.

1280
00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:03,080
Speaker 1: But you so how did that? How did because your

1281
00:50:03,120 --> 00:50:05,600
Speaker 1: teammate did you? You and Angel came in together with

1282
00:50:05,719 --> 00:50:06,359
Speaker 1: you a year older?

1283
00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:08,520
Speaker 2: She I was a freshman.

1284
00:50:08,600 --> 00:50:10,040
Speaker 1: She was she transferred in.

1285
00:50:10,320 --> 00:50:12,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think she was a junior or sophomore. So

1286
00:50:12,600 --> 00:50:13,360
Speaker 2: she transferred and.

1287
00:50:13,440 --> 00:50:15,080
Speaker 1: Y'all, you know she was a part of that. So

1288
00:50:15,120 --> 00:50:16,480
Speaker 1: how do you guys make each other better?

1289
00:50:16,560 --> 00:50:19,680
Speaker 2: Big part of it? Well, I just think like she's

1290
00:50:19,840 --> 00:50:23,400
Speaker 2: just like a dog, like like when you play with

1291
00:50:23,480 --> 00:50:23,960
Speaker 2: somebody like that.

1292
00:50:24,120 --> 00:50:27,000
Speaker 3: That made that game easier and you don't like bro

1293
00:50:27,239 --> 00:50:29,160
Speaker 3: like twenty rebounds a night, that's crazy.

1294
00:50:29,239 --> 00:50:31,920
Speaker 2: So it was that whole team. Like you had Andrew,

1295
00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:35,279
Speaker 2: then you had Jazzmine. You had to shoot it like

1296
00:50:35,320 --> 00:50:36,759
Speaker 2: on the team, and she lit it up in the

1297
00:50:36,840 --> 00:50:37,560
Speaker 2: championship game.

1298
00:50:37,600 --> 00:50:40,200
Speaker 3: Do you have the Danjel Williams And she was like

1299
00:50:40,880 --> 00:50:43,080
Speaker 3: playing with Angel but like a like they quiet, so

1300
00:50:43,160 --> 00:50:45,359
Speaker 3: she knew her role. She'd have a big game if

1301
00:50:45,360 --> 00:50:49,440
Speaker 3: you needed too. You had the point guard insane but

1302
00:50:49,560 --> 00:50:52,080
Speaker 3: like a really good point guard. And so like you know,

1303
00:50:52,280 --> 00:50:54,160
Speaker 3: like we had a great team and I was a freshman,

1304
00:50:54,600 --> 00:50:56,440
Speaker 3: so I was able to learn from everybody.

1305
00:50:56,520 --> 00:50:58,920
Speaker 2: But like they were, there was some dogs and I

1306
00:50:59,000 --> 00:51:01,520
Speaker 2: had to keep up with them. Yeah, yeah, for sure.

1307
00:51:02,960 --> 00:51:06,040
Speaker 5: That game, it was the most national championship game between

1308
00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:09,040
Speaker 5: LSU and IOWA was at that point in time. It

1309
00:51:09,160 --> 00:51:12,720
Speaker 5: was the most watched women's college basketball game in history.

1310
00:51:13,200 --> 00:51:15,919
Speaker 5: A little ticker under ten million view the rematch, y'all

1311
00:51:15,960 --> 00:51:20,680
Speaker 5: came back and did twelve point three. Yeah, obviously, Kaitlyn Clark.

1312
00:51:20,719 --> 00:51:23,400
Speaker 5: She's National Player of the Year. She has unlimited range.

1313
00:51:23,440 --> 00:51:26,120
Speaker 5: I mean the US defense system don't have range, have

1314
00:51:26,880 --> 00:51:29,400
Speaker 5: range like where you could shoot the ball from. You

1315
00:51:29,560 --> 00:51:32,719
Speaker 5: understood this, simon. You know eyeballs are gonna be watching you.

1316
00:51:32,880 --> 00:51:33,320
Speaker 2: You know this.

1317
00:51:34,040 --> 00:51:35,960
Speaker 5: You know losing was not gonna be an option in

1318
00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:41,160
Speaker 5: this game, right, So what's what's going through Flag's mind.

1319
00:51:41,520 --> 00:51:44,200
Speaker 5: It's a national championship, a moment that you dreamed and

1320
00:51:44,280 --> 00:51:45,360
Speaker 5: waited a lifetime for.

1321
00:51:45,760 --> 00:51:48,560
Speaker 3: I'm like, we're feeling who, like I knew, like their

1322
00:51:48,640 --> 00:51:51,080
Speaker 3: national trip game, I'm not Kaitlyn not finna beat her.

1323
00:51:51,120 --> 00:51:53,719
Speaker 3: It's like you know what I'm saying, Like like she like, no,

1324
00:51:53,800 --> 00:51:55,440
Speaker 3: I'm not her. I mean Kaitlyn could beat us. Her

1325
00:51:55,520 --> 00:51:57,040
Speaker 3: other teammates ain't finna beat us, right.

1326
00:51:57,000 --> 00:51:58,880
Speaker 1: Like you know, so y'all you get your on Kaitlyn,

1327
00:51:58,920 --> 00:52:00,719
Speaker 1: but y'all other folksy'all didn't get nothing.

1328
00:52:00,800 --> 00:52:02,799
Speaker 2: Kaylyn go for fifty, Like you know what I'm saying.

1329
00:52:03,080 --> 00:52:05,239
Speaker 3: That was like the mindset, but we gotta, like you

1330
00:52:05,320 --> 00:52:07,680
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying, play these other make her teammates better?

1331
00:52:07,840 --> 00:52:07,960
Speaker 1: Right?

1332
00:52:09,280 --> 00:52:09,480
Speaker 2: It was?

1333
00:52:09,640 --> 00:52:14,680
Speaker 1: It was bro Yes, Yes, so how was it because

1334
00:52:15,200 --> 00:52:15,799
Speaker 1: the build up.

1335
00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:18,840
Speaker 5: I mean, look, there have been some great, great women

1336
00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:21,880
Speaker 5: college players, and I molded up to remember them all right,

1337
00:52:22,080 --> 00:52:25,080
Speaker 5: the way way back from when La Tek wanted the

1338
00:52:25,120 --> 00:52:26,759
Speaker 5: one back to back to beat change stays.

1339
00:52:26,800 --> 00:52:29,200
Speaker 2: You've seen that, Yes, that's what coach Monkey players.

1340
00:52:29,320 --> 00:52:35,879
Speaker 5: Yes, there you are all, Yes, I remember, yes, yes,

1341
00:52:36,280 --> 00:52:39,000
Speaker 5: And I watched USC beat Coach Monkey them and I

1342
00:52:39,120 --> 00:52:41,880
Speaker 5: watched Clarissa Davis and them Texas teams forty five and

1343
00:52:42,200 --> 00:52:44,320
Speaker 5: beat them and all the way on. So there have

1344
00:52:44,360 --> 00:52:47,680
Speaker 5: been some great women college basketball players. And maybe not

1345
00:52:47,840 --> 00:52:50,759
Speaker 5: because we're in the social media era, but nobody's had

1346
00:52:50,800 --> 00:52:53,840
Speaker 5: to hype like Caitlin and Maya Moore was tremendous.

1347
00:52:54,320 --> 00:52:56,239
Speaker 1: Canada's Parker was tremendous.

1348
00:52:56,560 --> 00:52:58,520
Speaker 5: I mold up to Mayor min Sheriff's who dropped forty eight,

1349
00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:01,680
Speaker 5: dropped forty eight in the championship game against Ohio State,

1350
00:53:01,680 --> 00:53:02,759
Speaker 5: and Katie Smith like that.

1351
00:53:03,160 --> 00:53:04,360
Speaker 1: Yes, but.

1352
00:53:06,160 --> 00:53:09,280
Speaker 5: So you've heard this all year long, Kaitlyn, Kaitlyn, Katelyn

1353
00:53:09,800 --> 00:53:12,120
Speaker 5: and the and she was letting it go now in

1354
00:53:12,640 --> 00:53:14,680
Speaker 5: the in the tournament, she was letting me go fly.

1355
00:53:14,800 --> 00:53:16,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, I ain't gonna hold you on that one now,

1356
00:53:16,640 --> 00:53:20,200
Speaker 1: she was, he would get put to work what she doing.

1357
00:53:20,360 --> 00:53:23,000
Speaker 1: But you're like, damn man, we can't lose.

Speaker 3: Nah and b we had some dolls Like that team

1360
00:53:29,160 --> 00:53:31,200
Speaker 3: a bad game, it was somebody coming to pick him up.

1361
00:53:31,360 --> 00:53:32,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, and so it was.

1362
00:53:32,880 --> 00:53:33,960
Speaker 2: It was just perfect.

1363
00:53:34,080 --> 00:53:37,600
Speaker 3: Like it's it's a lot of like Caitlyn really did,

1364
00:53:37,719 --> 00:53:40,000
Speaker 3: like she was a talker that that whole tournament.

1365
00:53:40,040 --> 00:53:41,560
Speaker 2: They wanted that storybook ending.

1366
00:53:41,960 --> 00:53:45,239
Speaker 3: We came even did that though, Yeah, wonder like you're

1367

Speaker 3: you know, l s U we came out on top.

1369
00:53:50,360 --> 00:53:52,719
Speaker 3: But now just the influence of women basketball, like bir

1370
00:53:52,800 --> 00:53:55,160
Speaker 3: it's crazy right now, it's insane. Like you said, Marin Moore,

1371
00:53:55,200 --> 00:53:59,400
Speaker 3: you got Stewie, not not Stewart, you got super Birds.

Speaker 2: You know, when we're playing, I ain't hear too much.

1377
00:54:10,520 --> 00:54:12,040

1378
00:54:11,760 --> 00:54:12,640
Speaker 1: And she's been talking.

1379

Speaker 3: he came into the league. What was the energy around

1399
00:55:00,080 --> 00:55:01,400
Speaker 3: him in the league?

1400
00:55:01,719 --> 00:55:04,640
Speaker 5: I don't remember. Look, it was hell, it was more

1401
00:55:04,719 --> 00:55:07,759
Speaker 5: from his own teammates. Didn't think he would would they

1402
00:55:07,840 --> 00:55:12,800
Speaker 5: gonna be that good or could to elevate them. But

1403
00:55:13,239 --> 00:55:16,080
Speaker 5: I think the thing is is that the eyeballs that

1404
00:55:16,160 --> 00:55:20,680
Speaker 5: she's brought. It's like and when you say somebody's brought eyeballs,

1405
00:55:20,760 --> 00:55:24,279
Speaker 5: that doesn't diminish what maya Moore or Kemis Parker or

1406
00:55:24,280 --> 00:55:26,799
Speaker 5: some of the other greats have done. But like you said,

1407
00:55:26,880 --> 00:55:30,240
Speaker 5: maybe it wasn't the time for people to galvanize behind

1408
00:55:30,440 --> 00:55:31,280
Speaker 5: for whatever reason.

1409
00:55:32,280 --> 00:55:33,040
Speaker 1: It's so stupid.

1410
00:55:33,520 --> 00:55:36,080
Speaker 3: I don't understand it because it's like either way they're

1411
00:55:36,120 --> 00:55:39,319
Speaker 3: watching what I'm trying to say, it's gonna help everybody else.

1412
00:55:39,360 --> 00:55:39,680
Speaker 2: I don't know.

1413
00:55:39,719 --> 00:55:42,120
Speaker 3: Maybe that's my mindset, and I have to address this

1414
00:55:42,239 --> 00:55:45,200
Speaker 3: right now because everybody try to put two people against

1415
00:55:45,200 --> 00:55:48,480
Speaker 3: each other, like you know what I'm saying, and they trying.

1416
00:55:48,280 --> 00:55:49,400
Speaker 2: To put me in a bit of it. You know

1417
00:55:49,440 --> 00:55:50,880
Speaker 2: what I'm saying. I don't got nothing to doing that,

1418
00:55:51,080 --> 00:55:51,720
Speaker 2: Like you know what I'm.

1419
00:55:51,560 --> 00:55:53,480
Speaker 3: Saying, Like you could be like this is the thing,

1420
00:55:53,600 --> 00:55:57,279
Speaker 3: like like you can be friends with people that you

1421
00:55:57,440 --> 00:55:59,680
Speaker 3: play against that you don't like. We are all like

1422
00:55:59,719 --> 00:56:02,360
Speaker 3: you know I'm saying so, But it's it's weird like

1423
00:56:02,400 --> 00:56:03,960
Speaker 3: in the W and BA right now, because you can't

1424
00:56:04,000 --> 00:56:06,279
Speaker 3: be a fan of somebody and like somebody and yeah,

1425
00:56:06,360 --> 00:56:07,520
Speaker 3: you gotta.

1426
00:56:07,360 --> 00:56:10,040
Speaker 1: Choose one of the other. I can't. If I like Caitlyn,

1427
00:56:10,120 --> 00:56:12,760
Speaker 1: I gotta hate Angel. Yeah I think that was like Angel,

1428
00:56:12,800 --> 00:56:13,840
Speaker 1: I gotta hate Kaitlyn.

1429
00:56:13,960 --> 00:56:17,480
Speaker 3: I think that's so you gotta appreciate both greatness, like

1430
00:56:17,600 --> 00:56:19,799
Speaker 3: they're both breaking records, Like Kaitlin ain't having the best

1431
00:56:19,840 --> 00:56:22,360
Speaker 3: season this year, but they're both breaking records.

1432
00:56:22,360 --> 00:56:23,160
Speaker 2: They both all stars.

1433
00:56:23,200 --> 00:56:24,800
Speaker 3: So like, I hate being in the mix of that

1434
00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:27,200
Speaker 3: because I really like both of them. Our respect Kyveen Clark,

1435
00:56:27,480 --> 00:56:29,759
Speaker 3: love Angel, We want and Natty together. But I had

1436
00:56:29,760 --> 00:56:31,120
Speaker 3: to say that because br It's like, you can't be

1437
00:56:31,200 --> 00:56:31,960
Speaker 3: a fan of one.

1438
00:56:31,920 --> 00:56:33,440
Speaker 2: If you hate the you gotta hate the other.

1439
00:56:33,600 --> 00:56:36,080
Speaker 1: Life No, they want you to pick a pick a celebration.

1440
00:56:36,200 --> 00:56:37,279
Speaker 2: I just love greatness, bro.

1441
00:56:37,520 --> 00:56:37,680
Speaker 4: Now.

1442
00:56:37,920 --> 00:56:41,760
Speaker 5: It seems to all started from I think when our

1443
00:56:42,239 --> 00:56:45,440
Speaker 5: they were beating Louisville or they beat Louisville and she

1444
00:56:45,600 --> 00:56:45,960
Speaker 5: did this.

1445
00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:49,960
Speaker 1: You can't see you can't see see o see you

1446
00:56:50,040 --> 00:56:51,600
Speaker 1: had to put that work in. You can't see this.

1447
00:56:52,520 --> 00:56:55,560
Speaker 5: Okay, come to the National Championship game they died by

1448
00:56:55,640 --> 00:56:59,880
Speaker 5: twenty and you're like, you can't see this. And if

1449
00:57:00,719 --> 00:57:03,680
Speaker 5: it took off, I mean it was the same gesture.

1450
00:57:04,040 --> 00:57:06,719
Speaker 5: It was the exact same gesture that Kitler had done

1451
00:57:06,800 --> 00:57:10,960
Speaker 5: two nights earlier. And then when Angel did it, all

1452
00:57:11,040 --> 00:57:11,759
Speaker 5: hell broke loose.

1453
00:57:11,880 --> 00:57:15,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, but man, when she did it being bean Bong,

1454
00:57:15,680 --> 00:57:17,400
Speaker 3: that is when women's sports went.

1455
00:57:17,480 --> 00:57:21,720
Speaker 1: Like, oh my god, and maybe that's what we needed.

1456
00:57:21,760 --> 00:57:24,160
Speaker 1: Maybe we need to maybe we like the NBA didn't

1457
00:57:24,200 --> 00:57:25,800
Speaker 1: really take off until Burning Magic.

1458
00:57:26,080 --> 00:57:28,600
Speaker 2: I don't care how to get done, It got done. Yeah,

1459
00:57:29,080 --> 00:57:30,880
Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying, Like, you gotta like that's

1460
00:57:30,920 --> 00:57:31,280
Speaker 2: pinna be.

1461
00:57:31,680 --> 00:57:36,040
Speaker 3: People watch that money, people watching money adds and we

1462
00:57:36,120 --> 00:57:39,320
Speaker 3: get into that bread. Yeah, that's all I think about

1463
00:57:39,680 --> 00:57:40,960
Speaker 3: why they want to try to do all that and

1464
00:57:41,040 --> 00:57:43,880
Speaker 3: put all those things on the blogs, like it's more eyeboss.

1465
00:57:43,480 --> 00:57:45,760
Speaker 2: For the WNBA that in that moment when she did

1466
00:57:45,800 --> 00:57:48,120
Speaker 2: all this, I can't see you now.

1467
00:57:50,040 --> 00:57:51,440

00:58:37,440 --> 00:58:39,160
Speaker 3: at the end of the day, we is doing something

1487
00:58:39,200 --> 00:58:43,320

1498
00:59:07,440 --> 00:59:09,200
Speaker 3: trying to create a narrative that's not even there.
