Speaker 3: I've been such a fan for years. I'll get down here.

8
00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:19,560
Speaker 2: Of course, I would have never thought that's of course,

9
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:21,640
Speaker 2: it's always amazing to me because I remember I've been

10
00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:22,040
Speaker 2: doing this.

11
00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:23,840
Speaker 1: It's twenty years in radio for me. This year.

12
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:28,960
Speaker 3: You're an icon. I'm You're good at this girl. No, no, no, no, sure,

13
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:31,280
Speaker 3: it is just true. I mean probably since I was

14
00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:34,440
Speaker 3: maybe like seventeen eighteen, and I know it started with

15
00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:36,600
Speaker 3: like lip service and then like stuff with Breakfast Club

16
00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:38,360
Speaker 3: and you know all of that. So I've been tuned

17
00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:39,320
Speaker 3: in for years.

18
00:00:39,479 --> 00:00:41,200
Speaker 1: Well, thank you. I appreciate that.

19
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:43,440
Speaker 2: And I you know, I know you're coming here today

20
00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:45,360
Speaker 2: and you have to be one of the busiest people

21
00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:47,760
Speaker 2: because when I look at what you have going on,

22
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:50,400
Speaker 2: like the tours that you're going to be on, and

23
00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:55,640
Speaker 2: I feel like you have this like big responsibility just

24
00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:59,400
Speaker 2: because of what you represent. You know, this is an

25
00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:03,880
Speaker 2: artist who you're not in any one specific genre of music,

26
00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:08,240
Speaker 2: and that is all very intentional too, and sometimes that

27
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:11,080
Speaker 2: can be like confusing for people, But for real music fans,

28
00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:12,440
Speaker 2: we can just listen to it and be like, I

29
00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:13,560
Speaker 2: just love this, No.

30
00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:16,440
Speaker 3: For sure, for sure, I think like I think it's

31
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:19,640
Speaker 3: two things, like as a black girl number one, and

32
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:23,200
Speaker 3: then as an African girl, I know so many girls

33
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:26,039
Speaker 3: that are so cool and so diverse, and I think

34
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:29,080
Speaker 3: that I love that I get to be some type

35
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:31,039
Speaker 3: of representation for them, you know what I mean. And

36
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:34,080
Speaker 3: I think that being a genre bender, especially as an

37
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 3: African girl, might come as confusing to some people. But

38
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:41,760
Speaker 3: so many kids that I grew up around, so many girls,

39
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:43,840
Speaker 3: so many women that I grew up around, listen to

40
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 3: so many different types of music, are so diverse and

41
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 3: like their cultural experiences and the things that they bring

42
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:52,960
Speaker 3: to you know, their own lives in other people's lives.

43
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:55,720
Speaker 3: So I'm just an amalgamation of like all of the

44
00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 3: women that I've met and that are around me, and

45
00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:00,120
Speaker 3: you know, and I think that I bring that to

46
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 3: my music too.

47
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:04,480
Speaker 2: I think about that because my best friend, she when

48
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 2: she first started doing music, she was like a punk

49
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 2: rock artist, but she's black, right, Santi Gold, and she had.

50
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:12,080
Speaker 3: Oh why not no, that's your best friend. Yeah, I

51
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:14,959
Speaker 3: got another icon, like you talking.

52
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 1: I went to college together, were roommates like all after that.

53
00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 3: Sonty Gold is the reason I like am so diverse,

54
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:23,960
Speaker 3: Like musically, she was one of the first, Like I

55
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 3: remember when she dropped her her debut album sex, what

56
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:31,959
Speaker 3: was before that? It's one sift. It's the one where

57
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:34,919
Speaker 3: she's on the album cover and she's like vomiting gold. Yes, yes,

58
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:38,079
Speaker 3: Oh my god, what an icon when I.

59
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:38,480
Speaker 1: Tell you so.

60
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 2: Before that, she was in a band and it was

61
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,000
Speaker 2: called Stiff and it was like a punk rock band.

62
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:45,239
Speaker 1: And I remember her just being.

63
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,400
Speaker 2: Like, and I love that you said that because you

64
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:51,080
Speaker 2: kind of like, in a way, somewhat of your journey

65
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 2: reminds me of how she is.

66
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:53,959
Speaker 3: Oh that's so cool. I'm honored. I love.

67
00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:57,920
Speaker 2: I love because she first started writing for other people

68
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 2: right and then, And I know you did first, So

69
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 2: I know that really helps you as far as understanding

70
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,400
Speaker 2: like different like how to make the crowd move absolutely,

71
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:08,639
Speaker 2: and how to make sure you're doing like every crowd

72
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:09,120
Speaker 2: is different.

73
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 1: And the DJ has such an important job when you

74
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:12,320
Speaker 1: go out.

75
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:14,920
Speaker 2: Because the DJ can make or break absolutely, and you

76
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 2: could be like that party was amazing, and it's because

77
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:17,440
Speaker 2: of the DJ.

78
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:19,679
Speaker 1: Or it could be like that party was terrible and

79
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:20,480
Speaker 1: it's because of the DJ.

80
00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:25,360
Speaker 3: Absolutely, absolutely absolutely. I think that that having being a

81
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 3: DJ like and having that background for sure helped me

82
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 3: with my curation skills, and like I think even when

83
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:34,359
Speaker 3: you learn how tempos work, and when you learn how

84
00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 3: to make people move, like when it comes down to

85
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 3: even sequencing an album, that's such a great quality and

86
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,800
Speaker 3: skill to have because it makes you so much. It

87
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 3: makes it so much easier to do a.

88
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 2: Job like that and even to produce. Absolutely absolutely right

89
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 2: so for producing. But I was gonna say for her

90
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:51,960
Speaker 2: when she first came out, because she was black, even

91
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 2: though she was doing this other like genre of music,

92
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:58,280
Speaker 2: they would never categorize her as that or even play

93
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:01,280
Speaker 2: her on certain stations because she's a black artist. Even

94
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 2: though her music, if you listen to her, it doesn't matter.

95
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 2: She was doing punk rock music at first, but that

96
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 2: was a difficult place to break into, just like seeing

97
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 2: like a Mickey Guyton who does country music, but as

98
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 2: a black woman, it was hard at first for her

99
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:16,800
Speaker 2: to be accepted in that space.

100
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 3: You know, it's so crazy because I think Santy gold

101
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,640
Speaker 3: is so interesting because I don't know if she's aware

102
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:27,440
Speaker 3: how many African girls she's changed lives, that she's changed

103
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:32,080
Speaker 3: or radicalized. So many African girls that I know adore her,

104
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:35,760
Speaker 3: and that's like the beginning or the genesis of their

105
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:39,279
Speaker 3: journeys into self and like being alt and punk, Like

106
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:41,040
Speaker 3: she's the one that's crazy.

107
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:42,919
Speaker 2: But yeah, oh good, I've said, because I know she

108
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:46,040
Speaker 2: knows who you are, and I hope so that she

109
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:48,400
Speaker 2: her as clip Oh my god, you can see it.

110
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:50,479
Speaker 2: Because the music business, I think can also be a

111
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 2: really tough one, especially when you're a creative and it's

112
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 2: not always just about the money, because I'm sure there's

113
00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:59,360
Speaker 2: opportunities that you've had that you've been like, I don't

114
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 2: know if that goes with the direction that I'm creating

115
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:02,960
Speaker 2: for myself.

116
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 1: Oh you know, so how how is that for you?

117
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,279
Speaker 2: Because even seeing you going on tour right like you'll

118
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:11,160
Speaker 2: be you did your own tour and we'll talk about

119
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 2: that in a second. So now, Sabrina Carpenter and then

120
00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 2: also k Sannadaanada, I mean that is like the realm

121
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:22,159
Speaker 2: I feel like, and the like the elite in each

122
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 2: of their spaces that they're in, you know, and so

123
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:27,520
Speaker 2: for you, having just come off your own tour, tell

124
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:29,560
Speaker 2: me what that experience was, Like.

125
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:34,040
Speaker 3: I think it's what I loved was that these artists

126
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:37,400
Speaker 3: were all personally asked to have me do their shows.

127
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:39,640
Speaker 3: And I think that what it showed me was that

128
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:42,839
Speaker 3: my album Fountain Baby, and just the music that I

129
00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:46,119
Speaker 3: create is so diverse that it can touch different people

130
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:49,360
Speaker 3: in different audiences. And to see that the artists that

131
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:51,800
Speaker 3: are at the top of their game and their respective

132
00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:55,120
Speaker 3: fields can recognize that and be like, Okay, there's this

133
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,440
Speaker 3: one thing that you do that I feel like matches

134
00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:59,760
Speaker 3: my energy, but then there's also a whole other world

135
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:01,600
Speaker 3: that you create, and that's what I want to expose

136
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:05,120
Speaker 3: my audience to and different the different artists that I

137
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,400
Speaker 3: worked with, like k Tra is just so chill and

138
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,320
Speaker 3: so much fun, and his sets are bouncy and everyone

139
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:14,040
Speaker 3: is having a good time. And then like with Childish Gambino,

140
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:17,960
Speaker 3: working with him in the studio, for example, he's so intentional,

141
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:21,320
Speaker 3: and then when you realize how he's able to work

142
00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:23,400
Speaker 3: on a song with you and get a certain type

143
00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:26,280
Speaker 3: of performance or delivery out of you, you recognize how

144
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,320
Speaker 3: he's such a great director and how he's made such

145
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:32,239
Speaker 3: an impact not only just in like music, but also

146
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:35,599
Speaker 3: film and visual. And then I think Sabrina was the

147
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:38,919
Speaker 3: one that shocked me the most, you know, yeah, because

148
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:41,480
Speaker 3: I remember asking her. I was like, so, who on

149
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:43,960
Speaker 3: your team like asked you to do this? And she

150
00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:46,080
Speaker 3: was like, well, no, I really liked your album and

151
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 3: my best friend and I played all the time, so

152
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,239
Speaker 3: I really wanted you to come. And I was like OK.

153
00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:52,440
Speaker 3: And I was like, you know, it's gonna be a

154
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:55,680
Speaker 3: little spicy, and she was like, I want you to

155
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:56,880
Speaker 3: just fully be yourself.

156
00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:57,520
Speaker 1: That's dombe.

157
00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:00,520
Speaker 3: No. So after the first night after the show, I

158
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:02,440
Speaker 3: went backstage to go see her and I was like, hey,

159
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:05,240
Speaker 3: I'm totally open to feedback if you want us to

160
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:06,839
Speaker 3: pull back, if you want us to change anything. She

161
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 3: was like, it's perfect, don't change anything. But then I

162
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,120
Speaker 3: watched her show as well, and then I got to

163
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 3: see how diverse musically everything is, and like the arrangements

164
00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:18,600
Speaker 3: go from everything from pop to jazz to country to

165
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:20,840
Speaker 3: like even like tinges of R and B and hip hop.

166
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 3: And I'm like, oh, you like music, like you're really

167
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 3: here for the thing. And I gained you know, I

168
00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:28,760
Speaker 3: already had a lot of respect for it, but I

169
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,120
Speaker 3: gained a whole new respect for her taste level in

170
00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:34,960
Speaker 3: her artistry and really understanding how to maneuver through all

171
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:36,760
Speaker 3: of these different genres and styles.

172
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:38,800
Speaker 1: That's nice and organic that she was the one.

173
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:40,400
Speaker 2: It wasn't like the teams like you know, what would

174
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:43,280
Speaker 2: be great to uh put this person on because this

175
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:44,920
Speaker 2: could be a good way to do it. It was

176
00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:46,840
Speaker 2: just something that she just was like, I like your music.

177
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:47,960
Speaker 2: Do you think I'm shocked?

178
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:49,560
Speaker 3: I was shocked.

179
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:52,520
Speaker 2: I was like, okay, girl, but you shouldn't be because

180
00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:55,679
Speaker 2: I feel like you've been getting tons of accolades, even

181
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 2: you know, seeing your album previous albums make the list

182
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,880
Speaker 2: like I saw a Pitchfork had you back in like

183
00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:05,400
Speaker 2: twenty eighteen, I think, on their list of like top

184
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:09,200
Speaker 2: albums of the year. Yeah, you know, And I just

185
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:11,680
Speaker 2: feel like people kali Uchi is the song that you

186
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:15,440
Speaker 2: have with her because I love money too, but no period,

187
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:16,640
Speaker 2: we all do.

188
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 3: We all do because.

189
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:24,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, the financial situation like before this music started blowing up.

190
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:27,960
Speaker 3: So for me, I have to say that I am

191
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 3: really grateful to like I had a mom that has

192
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,520
Speaker 3: worked her butt off for years and my mom actually

193
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:38,040
Speaker 3: is my manager. And when when I started music, I

194
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:42,000
Speaker 3: remember thinking to myself, who do I know that's resourceful

195
00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:44,680
Speaker 3: and smart and learns quickly on their feet. So I

196
00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:46,120
Speaker 3: went to my mom and I was like, hey, here's

197
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:48,280
Speaker 3: a business plan. I really want to be an artist.

198
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:49,880
Speaker 3: I think this is how much it's going to cost.

199
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:52,040
Speaker 3: This is how quickly we're going to recoup. Will you

200
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:54,960
Speaker 3: help me? And she was like okay. And so you know,

201
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,640
Speaker 3: my mom has always been like a middle class working women,

202
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 3: always worked at the top corporate job. So she's taking

203
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:04,000
Speaker 3: care of myself and my brother really well and has

204
00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:07,000
Speaker 3: like provided us with opportunities to grow. And when we

205
00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:09,840
Speaker 3: both wanted to, you know, come into the world and

206
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:13,520
Speaker 3: do our respective businesses, she not only it wasn't like Okay,

207
00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 3: go out into the world. It was like, all right,

208
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 3: I'm gonna be your mentor and I'm gonna be your

209
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 3: business partner. And all the things that I've learned from

210
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:22,080
Speaker 3: working from Coca Cola to City Bank to City Group,

211
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,240
Speaker 3: I'm going to give you guys this knowledge and imparted

212
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:28,160
Speaker 3: on you, but also supervise you and help you through

213
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:31,720
Speaker 3: you know, your your your respective path. So I'm grateful

214
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 3: to just have such an amazing mom who has really

215
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:37,040
Speaker 3: dedicated her life to making sure that I am right

216
00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:37,720
Speaker 3: where I am right now.

217
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:38,240
Speaker 1: That's dope.

218
00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:40,959
Speaker 2: And your dad was into fashion too, right, Yes, he

219
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:42,680
Speaker 2: was for both your parents.

220
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 3: And yeah, no, my dad. My dad loves clothing. That's

221
00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 3: that was also one of the things that he did.

222
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:52,200
Speaker 3: He imported and exported fabric, you know, since I was

223
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 3: a child, So that's that's kind of been his bag.

224
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:56,160
Speaker 3: He loves clothes, and he loves to get dressed, and

225
00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:57,559
Speaker 3: he loves to be the center of attention.

226
00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 2: So yeah, And so you were born in correct me

227
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 2: ifrom in the Bronx, Yes, ma'am okay, so the Bronx

228
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:07,440
Speaker 2: and you have.

229
00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:09,800
Speaker 1: Wow. Then you went to.

230
00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:15,040
Speaker 3: Atlanta, yes, no, so yeah, then Acra Yeah, and then

231
00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:16,760
Speaker 3: I lived there until I was about a and then

232
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:20,120
Speaker 3: my mom went to go do her masters at Guayzwater

233
00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:22,679
Speaker 3: Emory Business School, so she moved us there with her,

234
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:25,240
Speaker 3: and then she came to New Jersey to work, so

235
00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:27,320
Speaker 3: we lived in Jersey. Then I went back again for

236
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:30,079
Speaker 3: high school in Ghana, and then I went to college

237
00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:30,840
Speaker 3: in Atlanta.

238
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 1: I think that's so dope.

239
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:34,640
Speaker 2: I think that also is a great influence because like

240
00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:36,640
Speaker 2: for me, I feel like I grew up my whole

241
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:38,079
Speaker 2: life in Brooklyn and then I.

242
00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:38,600
Speaker 1: Moved to Jersey.

243
00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:40,520
Speaker 3: That right, I've never really.

244
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:41,200
Speaker 1: Lived anywhere else.

245
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:43,440
Speaker 2: But just imagine what you're exposed to when you have

246
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:46,800
Speaker 2: all these different cultures and all these different, like very

247
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,800
Speaker 2: very differing places that you actually can be comfortable in

248
00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:53,840
Speaker 2: and spaces to move around in. How do you think

249
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,800
Speaker 2: that influenced your music? Being able to move in to

250
00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:57,920
Speaker 2: different places like that.

251
00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:02,400
Speaker 3: I think instantly moving taught me how to be adaptable

252
00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:05,400
Speaker 3: and how to be malleable. And I think that that

253
00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 3: shows in my music. You know, no matter what artists

254
00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:10,800
Speaker 3: I'm featuring with, or no matter even in my music,

255
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:14,240
Speaker 3: whether it's punk influence, whether it's Afro influence, whether it's rock,

256
00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:17,400
Speaker 3: hip hop, whatever, I'm always able to maneuver and move

257
00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:19,760
Speaker 3: through the music. And I think that that's what that

258
00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:21,800
Speaker 3: kind of lifestyle taught me, is just how to be

259
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:26,040
Speaker 3: adaptable and to move through the world and to be flexible,

260
00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:28,440
Speaker 3: you know, in my thought process, and to be open

261
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:28,960
Speaker 3: to learning.

262
00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:33,679
Speaker 2: Now, the video for Sweet Yes We Had It, that's,

263
00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:35,319
Speaker 2: by the way, a beautiful video.

264
00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:35,760
Speaker 1: Thank you?

265
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:37,760
Speaker 2: Do you feel like that was risque for you to

266
00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:40,079
Speaker 2: make it. I saw you on the news recently saying

267
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:42,160
Speaker 2: that when you go to Ghana, you feel like you

268
00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:45,640
Speaker 2: don't get the love that they should be giving an artist,

269
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:48,440
Speaker 2: you know, because you're something somebody that is very intentioned

270
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:52,120
Speaker 2: on also making sure that you're you are I think

271
00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:53,520
Speaker 2: being inclusive.

272
00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:54,600
Speaker 1: Of everyone absolutely.

273
00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:57,080
Speaker 2: Do you think it's like risque moves like that that

274
00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:00,720
Speaker 2: gets you back in Ghana criticism?

275
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 3: You know what? I think that I came out of

276
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:05,000
Speaker 3: the gates swinging like one of my very first no,

277
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 3: one of my very first music videos had like had like, uh,

278
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,560
Speaker 3: it had trans women in it, it had it had

279
00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:15,600
Speaker 3: gay people in it, think kids in it. It had

280
00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:18,720
Speaker 3: the world. So that is what that's my representation of.

281
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,000
Speaker 3: I see the world, and I care about the world,

282
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:23,320
Speaker 3: and I care about community. So that's what like my

283
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:26,800
Speaker 3: visual representation is all about. But like with Sweet, I

284
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 3: was just like it would just be sexy, like just

285
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:32,240
Speaker 3: like to be sexy sex girl lying on the bed,

286
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:34,920
Speaker 3: Like why not? You know, it's twenty twenty four and

287
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:37,160
Speaker 3: we live in a world that accepts all lifestyles and

288
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:40,360
Speaker 3: all paths. But to answer your question as far as

289
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:44,360
Speaker 3: like you know, maybe let's say, uh, not receiving a

290
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 3: certain level of support or amount of support. I definitely

291
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:49,200
Speaker 3: do think that my music was niche, and it's still

292
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:52,760
Speaker 3: considered niche to the people back home. And I think

293
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,560
Speaker 3: that support wise, I see it from the girls that

294
00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:57,800
Speaker 3: are just like me. They are the ones that are

295
00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:00,120
Speaker 3: championing my movement and are like, oh my god, we

296
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:03,760
Speaker 3: love Amaree blah blah blah blah. But then I think

297
00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:07,480
Speaker 3: in a grander scheme of things, you know, I think

298
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:09,880
Speaker 3: I radicalize the population a little bit, and it's like,

299
00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:12,160
Speaker 3: let's see how it goes with this girl.

300
00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:15,280
Speaker 1: But the world is very conservative still.

301
00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:16,120
Speaker 3: Is, Yeah, it is.

302
00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:17,319
Speaker 1: And even when I'm on.

303
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:19,480
Speaker 2: The radio, certain things they're like, you know, certain markets,

304
00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:20,880
Speaker 2: I don't know if we can talk about that or

305
00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:23,280
Speaker 2: we can do this, because some places might have an

306
00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:25,120
Speaker 2: issue with it. But it's kind of like, guys, it's

307
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:27,480
Speaker 2: twenty twenty four, Like everybody relaxed.

308
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:29,880
Speaker 3: And I think that the artists now too, Like when

309
00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:33,400
Speaker 3: you just think about all the coolest artists in the world,

310
00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:37,960
Speaker 3: like they're so diverse and so malleable and so flexible,

311
00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:40,840
Speaker 3: and you know, and it's just like it's a great,

312
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:43,160
Speaker 3: big world and I think everyone is just rolling through it.

313
00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:45,720
Speaker 3: But I think that when we talk about conservatism, I

314
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:48,800
Speaker 3: do think that it's the generation before us that's still

315
00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:51,800
Speaker 3: kind of like there's still a changing of the guard happening.

316
00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:54,360
Speaker 3: But I think the older generation is just kind of like,

317
00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:56,840
Speaker 3: you guys are just a little too much. My mom

318
00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:59,520
Speaker 3: almost was like, you're not going to drop that video

319
00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:00,920
Speaker 3: and I was like, watch.

320
00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:03,560
Speaker 1: Me, You're like this is working for me?

321
00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:05,640
Speaker 3: No, I was like, girl, watch like, no one is

322
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:07,720
Speaker 3: gonna be upset. Like it's hot. You know, it is

323
00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:10,440
Speaker 3: what it is, and it's fun. It's fun. It's fun

324
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:13,120
Speaker 3: to I think, push people to think outside of the

325
00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:15,440
Speaker 3: box and outside of the lines and the things that

326
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:16,720
Speaker 3: they're used to thinking.

327
00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,640
Speaker 2: Now, when you put out Fountain Baby and now several

328
00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:22,800
Speaker 2: times you said you had gotten out of a relationship

329
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:25,000
Speaker 2: that was really difficult.

330
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:25,160
Speaker 3: Huh huh.

331
00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:27,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, So was that you doing a breakup or did

332
00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:28,680
Speaker 2: somebody break up with you?

333
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:29,960
Speaker 1: Like what was the issue?

334
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:34,120
Speaker 3: I think Fountain Baby was really just about a process

335
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:37,960
Speaker 3: of self discovery for me. And what was cool about

336
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,000
Speaker 3: it was that, you know, the person that I was

337
00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 3: in love with at the time just happened to be

338
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:44,320
Speaker 3: a conduit for that self discovery. So it's really a

339
00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:46,440
Speaker 3: lot of me going back and forth with this person,

340
00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 3: But truly it's an internal struggle of like, do I

341
00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:53,560
Speaker 3: think that you're the right person to help me get

342
00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:55,200
Speaker 3: to the places that I want to be? And what

343
00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:59,040
Speaker 3: are the things that you do, whether you're aware or

344
00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:03,160
Speaker 3: not that either scare me, challenge me, push me, or

345
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:05,920
Speaker 3: hold me back. And that was the whole push and

346
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:09,320
Speaker 3: pull of the album. But yeah, I think that ultimately

347
00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:11,920
Speaker 3: it was like self discovery for myself, and you know,

348
00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:14,320
Speaker 3: a person just happened to be amused and a conduit

349
00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:15,640
Speaker 3: for it, and I thank them for that.

350
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:16,160
Speaker 1: Right.

351
00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:19,120
Speaker 2: If anything, from every relationship, we learn absolutely and we

352
00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:20,920
Speaker 2: grow from it. We learned what not to do, we

353
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:24,360
Speaker 2: learn what we do, what we learn what we don't want, Yes, ma'am, Yes, ma'am.

354
00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:26,440
Speaker 3: That's that's that's facts. That's facts.

355
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 1: No.

356
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:30,360
Speaker 3: But I think outside of that too, you know, I

357
00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:33,040
Speaker 3: for sure, like I can definitely understand like the devastation

358
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:35,240
Speaker 3: of it all, just like you know, going through something

359
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:36,960
Speaker 3: with someone that you've been with for a long time,

360
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:39,120
Speaker 3: but when you come out of it too, it's so

361
00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:41,240
Speaker 3: refreshing to be like, oh, Okay, now I.

362
00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:43,560
Speaker 1: Can see the world clearer that's gone digital.

363
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:46,320
Speaker 3: No, you know, you know, we're back in the streets.

364
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:53,480
Speaker 2: No literally, yeah, Now as far as you you know,

365
00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:56,440
Speaker 2: did you produce all of this too? Or well no,

366
00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:58,760
Speaker 2: not everything, but you still are producing for yourself?

367
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:02,680
Speaker 3: No. Yeah, So I'm always the exec producer on my projects,

368
00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:05,440
Speaker 3: and then I have two other exec producers that I

369
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:08,000
Speaker 3: work with, QST being like, you know, one of my

370
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:10,320
Speaker 3: main ones. And then we have kind of like a

371
00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:13,000
Speaker 3: smaller group of you know, people that we work with

372
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,840
Speaker 3: and that helped to produce the album. So shout out,

373
00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:20,160
Speaker 3: shout out to all the boys. But yeah, I worked,

374
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:22,240
Speaker 3: I worked on I worked on this project with like

375
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:24,320
Speaker 3: a team of amazing producers.

376
00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:27,600
Speaker 1: And yeah, I saw you said that Babyface influenced you.

377
00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:29,880
Speaker 2: It made you actually have to go back and rewrite

378
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:33,960
Speaker 2: an album, yes, ma'am. So what's the process like now

379
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:34,240
Speaker 2: for you?

380
00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:40,320
Speaker 3: So I think the cool thing with meeting Babyface was

381
00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:44,480
Speaker 3: this is probably the human being that has written the

382
00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 3: songs that have defined all of our lives. Right, Like,

383
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:49,680
Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure I was like conceived to a Babyface song.

384
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:53,920
Speaker 3: So so imagine going in and you watch his process,

385
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:56,560
Speaker 3: and the cool thing for him was like he never

386
00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:59,960
Speaker 3: leaves a story open ended. It always has to have

387
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:02,160
Speaker 3: a start and has to have a beginning. And when

388
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:04,720
Speaker 3: we were writing together, I would say a line and

389
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 3: he would be like, yes, but why and what does

390
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:10,000
Speaker 3: this lead to and what does this teach the audience?

391
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:13,080
Speaker 3: And I was like, Oh, I'm just saying things because

392
00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:15,920
Speaker 3: I just think they sound cool and fly, But actually

393
00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:18,399
Speaker 3: there should be a method to that, you know, And

394
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:23,080
Speaker 3: you should end every song having taught someone something. And

395
00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:25,560
Speaker 3: so when I did those sessions with Kenny, I went

396
00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:27,400
Speaker 3: back and I was like, I called my co writer

397
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:31,000
Speaker 3: Mason and I was like, Hey, we need to go

398
00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:32,679
Speaker 3: back in the studio and rewrite the album. So you

399
00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:35,280
Speaker 3: have to fly to Ghana and he was like, oh okay,

400
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:37,720
Speaker 3: and then he came and I love that he took

401
00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:39,920
Speaker 3: the feedback on board. And every time the same thing

402
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,920
Speaker 3: Kenny would do to me, Why can that be stronger?

403
00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:45,399
Speaker 3: What are we teaching them? Does this make sense? You know?

404
00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:47,760
Speaker 3: So that's I shout out to Kenny, shout out to Babyface,

405
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:49,160
Speaker 3: the greatest in the world. Man.

406
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,959
Speaker 2: I had him on lip service and he was saying

407
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:52,680
Speaker 2: that you.

408
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:53,640
Speaker 1: Don't have to be.

409
00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:58,720
Speaker 2: Huss he said, he said, you don't have to use

410
00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:02,439
Speaker 2: like a foul language to get your point across in music.

411
00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:05,359
Speaker 2: And Arie Lennox is on that episode too, where we

412
00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:08,400
Speaker 2: were like, well, sometimes it's kind of sometimes it does

413
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:10,760
Speaker 2: sound kind of cool though, because sometimes there's no other way,

414
00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:13,720
Speaker 2: I think, or sometimes it can still be a great

415
00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:17,040
Speaker 2: way to express yourself. But I was like that babyface respectfully, yes,

416
00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:20,440
Speaker 2: we're gonna just because you don't never want to talk

417
00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:23,840
Speaker 2: crazy in front of baby He's like so nice and chill, Yeah, yeah,

418
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:26,800
Speaker 2: so chill. It's like, you know, you got to hand

419
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:28,800
Speaker 2: it to him, like, but I think, yeah.

420
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:31,119
Speaker 3: I think for him, he has like a special talent,

421
00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:35,560
Speaker 3: like a crazy talent of writing songs where he especially

422
00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:40,560
Speaker 3: can probably communicate so many different types of emotions without

423
00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:44,280
Speaker 3: having to like use swear words. But I think that,

424
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:47,080
Speaker 3: you know, for like the youth, we're angry and we're

425
00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:49,760
Speaker 3: confused and where we want to rage. So I think

426
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:52,520
Speaker 3: that that's probably the difference where Kenny is so classy

427
00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:55,320
Speaker 3: and Kenny is so reserved and everything that he does

428
00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:57,159
Speaker 3: is so intentional, and I think that that shows in

429
00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:58,399
Speaker 3: the way that he writes his music.

430
00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:00,200
Speaker 2: Now, why do you think the youth is in gree

431
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:02,439
Speaker 2: and confused? When you just said that. Now, I was

432
00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:04,960
Speaker 2: thinking about when I was younger, was I angry? And

433
00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:07,520
Speaker 2: was I confused? And I don't know if it's like

434
00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:10,040
Speaker 2: a I feel like there's so much exposure to things

435
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:12,680
Speaker 2: today that it does kind of.

436
00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:16,000
Speaker 1: Create a lot of confusion.

437
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:21,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, as like a youth who needs like who have

438
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:24,800
Speaker 3: you seen? Rent prices? Food prices? Like what are you

439
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:28,000
Speaker 3: talking about when my parents were coming up?

440
00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:29,240
Speaker 1: We were just talking about that.

441
00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:32,360
Speaker 3: What, Oh my god, when my parents were coming up,

442
00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:35,120
Speaker 3: like they were able to have like a starter home

443
00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:37,560
Speaker 3: and starter fans. What are you talking about? We're going

444
00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:42,840
Speaker 3: through it. The rent is insane, food prices are insane.

445
00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:44,520
Speaker 3: But I think outside of that too. I saw the

446
00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:46,960
Speaker 3: funniest thing on my way here. There was a a

447
00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:52,520
Speaker 3: monster truck going around and it had a bunch of

448
00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:55,159
Speaker 3: like Confederate flags and it was a Trump rally and

449
00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:58,359
Speaker 3: they had Joe Biden tied up. No like that, No,

450
00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:01,199
Speaker 3: literally the so there was a bumper sticker on the

451
00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:03,359
Speaker 3: end and it has Joe Biden tied up and it

452
00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:07,040
Speaker 3: says the hoe it's got to go that this is

453
00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:09,680
Speaker 3: happening in real time in New York City. I will

454
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,200
Speaker 3: show you, ma'am. On my way here, on my way here,

455
00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:13,399
Speaker 3: I will show you the video.

456
00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:14,680
Speaker 1: That's crazy.

457
00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:16,600
Speaker 3: I will show you the video. And then there's a

458
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 3: second car behind them, and it's like it's like dummy

459
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:22,800
Speaker 3: dolls of Trump in the car. And then on the

460
00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:25,480
Speaker 3: side it's pasted, you know, when he got shot and

461
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:30,000
Speaker 3: he did the thing. It says legends never die. I said, oh, oh,

462
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:33,240
Speaker 3: my guy, Like that's what I'm saying, Like, we're we're

463
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:36,560
Speaker 3: in living in a world where everything is so unfiltered

464
00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:39,639
Speaker 3: and unsolicited, and we're exposed to everyone's thoughts all the

465
00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:42,680
Speaker 3: time and exposed to so many things. And I can

466
00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:46,240
Speaker 3: see why as youth were confused and it's a difficult

467
00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:49,320
Speaker 3: time because there's no filtering of anything.

468
00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:51,439
Speaker 2: Well, thank god you have the outlet of music to

469
00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:55,280
Speaker 2: be able to express yourself. Yeah, and as you're working

470
00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:57,600
Speaker 2: on new music, and so you did the extended version

471
00:20:57,720 --> 00:20:59,840
Speaker 2: Roses Are Red, Tears Are Blue with seven News.

472
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:04,119
Speaker 1: Yes, right, And so was this always.

473
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:07,399
Speaker 2: Like the plan to have the extended play or was

474
00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:09,080
Speaker 2: it supposed to be a whole new project.

475
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:11,960
Speaker 3: Oh no, it was supposed to be an extended Okay, yeah,

476
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:13,520
Speaker 3: it was, like you know, because it's like a whole

477
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:16,480
Speaker 3: new Yeah, no, literally think about it now. I should

478
00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:17,800
Speaker 3: have done that. I should have just made a whole

479
00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:20,879
Speaker 3: new project, but you know, we just wanted to do

480
00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:23,240
Speaker 3: a deluxe for the album, and kind of.

481
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:27,920
Speaker 2: It's amazing to pay all eyes to Young Thug on hair,

482
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:31,240
Speaker 2: but that's even something that's crazy that's going on. His child,

483
00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:35,600
Speaker 2: the longest child ever in Georgia, in Atlanta, and it's like,

484
00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:36,359
Speaker 2: it's a mess.

485
00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:41,480
Speaker 3: It is a mess. And I, you know, I think

486
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:44,640
Speaker 3: that when I think about artistry and what Young Thug

487
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:47,800
Speaker 3: is represented for so many young people and so many

488
00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:50,480
Speaker 3: young artists. He's such an icon. But then I do

489
00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:53,040
Speaker 3: think about the fact that, you know, there are repercussions

490
00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:56,080
Speaker 3: to actions, and I do think that, you know, we

491
00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:58,120
Speaker 3: have to think about the nuance of it all. It's

492
00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:00,919
Speaker 3: like young man in the streets to provide for his

493
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:03,239
Speaker 3: family has probably done things that he's not proud of.

494
00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:05,840
Speaker 3: But then at the same time, it's a cycle. It's

495
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:08,320
Speaker 3: a vicious cycle, you know. I think that it's difficult

496
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:10,480
Speaker 3: once you come out of that and you have the

497
00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:13,960
Speaker 3: opportunity to lift others, to leave that type of life alone.

498
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:15,760
Speaker 3: And I think that that's kind of like the nuance

499
00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:18,000
Speaker 3: of what we're seeing with Doug where it's this icon

500
00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:21,120
Speaker 3: that we love and we adore, but there's also mistakes

501
00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:23,359
Speaker 3: that he's made that he's being held accountable for. But

502
00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:25,800
Speaker 3: at the same time, you think about the system and

503
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:28,320
Speaker 3: how why was he even there to begin with? How

504
00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:30,200
Speaker 3: did he how was he even a young black man

505
00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:31,800
Speaker 3: that needed to do the things that he needed to

506
00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:34,479
Speaker 3: do to begin with? And yeah, the trial is an

507
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:36,600
Speaker 3: absolute mess, and I hope that, you know, everything gets

508
00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:40,000
Speaker 3: figured out. But ultimately, I think once he's like remorseful

509
00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:42,320
Speaker 3: for his actions and you know, just ready to start

510
00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:44,000
Speaker 3: a new leaf, turnover a new leaf.

511
00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:46,720
Speaker 1: I love that you said that, like that, Yeah, yeah, yeah, I.

512
00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:50,679
Speaker 2: Think that's very because sometimes when we really adore certain people,

513
00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:54,080
Speaker 2: we can overlook things right and not understand that like, okay,

514
00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:57,360
Speaker 2: there is some things that there are repercussions for people's

515
00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:59,840
Speaker 2: actions at times, while we might love someone as an

516
00:22:59,880 --> 00:23:03,360
Speaker 2: art art is you know, even watching I know everybody's

517
00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:05,760
Speaker 2: talking about Diddy right now, but even watching that, like

518
00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:07,879
Speaker 2: for a lot of people, he was like, you know,

519
00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:09,399
Speaker 2: this is what I want to be. I want to

520
00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:11,600
Speaker 2: be like Diddy. I want to work for Diddy, I

521
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:14,200
Speaker 2: want to do this. People were calling themselves naming themselves

522
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:16,600
Speaker 2: after him. But then we see all of these things

523
00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:18,320
Speaker 2: that are coming out and people kind of there are

524
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:19,679
Speaker 2: some people who don't believe it.

525
00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:21,760
Speaker 1: They're like, you know, how they said, God.

526
00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:25,000
Speaker 3: There's overwhelming evidence to the contrary. What are you talking

527
00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:25,359
Speaker 3: about it?

528
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:28,120
Speaker 2: Oh, definitely make excuses if they like someone or if

529
00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:31,600
Speaker 2: they admire somebody. And I think there's definitely a mistrust

530
00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:37,000
Speaker 2: of the justice system here too. And so even like

531
00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:39,399
Speaker 2: when you know, certain people will be like, well, you know,

532
00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:41,919
Speaker 2: they always pin these things and it's to make the

533
00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:45,359
Speaker 2: black man look bad, and because it has happened in

534
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:47,600
Speaker 2: the past, you know, But like you said, there are

535
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:49,080
Speaker 2: a lot of people coming for it. I think there's

536
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:52,120
Speaker 2: like one hundred new cases that are happening right now.

537
00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:56,080
Speaker 2: So how the music business is also not an easy

538
00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:57,919
Speaker 2: place to be in. But at least you have your

539
00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:01,080
Speaker 2: mom as your manager right for that where they like

540
00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:04,760
Speaker 2: scared about certain things for you, because even just financially,

541
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:08,159
Speaker 2: you know, people signing deals that aren't like the best

542
00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:11,320
Speaker 2: deals and getting taken advantage of. But then also having

543
00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:13,399
Speaker 2: to be in the studio. You're a woman, You're you know,

544
00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:16,280
Speaker 2: a beautiful woman. I'm sure there's times when people can

545
00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:18,760
Speaker 2: test you and try you. What has that been like

546
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:19,160
Speaker 2: for you?

547
00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:23,040
Speaker 3: Well, as far as just having someone that have my back,

548
00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:27,040
Speaker 3: my mom is on everyone's she's on everyone's but you know,

549
00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:30,560
Speaker 3: like and she's reading the she's reading the contracts and

550
00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:32,760
Speaker 3: being like, this is not gonna fly, this is gonna fly.

551
00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:35,040
Speaker 3: I can negotiate on this. I can give some leeway

552
00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:38,000
Speaker 3: on that, but ultimately I care about her pockets, you

553
00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:40,600
Speaker 3: know what I mean. And she's also the CFO of

554
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:42,520
Speaker 3: the company, Like all the money goes through her and

555
00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:45,480
Speaker 3: everything has to be approved. And obviously she'll have conversations

556
00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:47,600
Speaker 3: with me about hey, we're spending this on that, this

557
00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:51,880
Speaker 3: cost this, this, this cost that. But she's really like safeguarding,

558
00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:54,880
Speaker 3: you know, the legacy that we're building. As far as

559
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:57,440
Speaker 3: being a woman that you know, has to deal with men,

560
00:24:57,480 --> 00:24:59,280
Speaker 3: I think that I hold my own pretty well. I

561
00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:02,119
Speaker 3: will beat you up, and it's not and it's not

562
00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:04,360
Speaker 3: even it's not even a game. I will beat you up.

563
00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:07,760
Speaker 3: And I my brother too, used to go everywhere with

564
00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:10,400
Speaker 3: me and he's like a tall, dark dude. So you're

565
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:13,280
Speaker 3: not about to start acting family? Yeah, yes, ma'am, it's

566
00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:13,720
Speaker 3: a family.

567
00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:14,080
Speaker 1: Affair.

568
00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:16,920
Speaker 2: So you know, you were also the first gun and

569
00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:20,360
Speaker 2: artist to do tiny desk. Yes, that's wild that all

570
00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:22,960
Speaker 2: the time they've been doing tiny desk. That's never happened before.

571
00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:25,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know, it's kind of crazy.

572
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:26,680
Speaker 1: Your Tiny Desk was amazing.

573
00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:30,160
Speaker 3: Oh, thank you, thank You's I didn't. Yeah, I hope

574
00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:31,600
Speaker 3: I get to redo it. I hope I get to

575
00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:33,320
Speaker 3: I was so nervous that day, and I hated it.

576
00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:35,480
Speaker 3: He did a great job on thank you, thank you,

577
00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:36,000
Speaker 3: thank you.

578
00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:36,720
Speaker 1: Yeah.

579
00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:38,520
Speaker 2: Well I'm sure you will do it again though, because

580
00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:41,320
Speaker 2: obviously you have new material and new music to be

581
00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:41,879
Speaker 2: able to do that.

582
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:44,159
Speaker 3: So yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm gonna go beg them and

583
00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:46,439
Speaker 3: be like, guys, I need to redo, I need to redo.

584
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:48,240
Speaker 3: Let's let's run that one back.

585
00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:51,680
Speaker 1: Like hundreds of thousand of music right away. I remember

586
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:52,480
Speaker 1: when it came out, No.

587
00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:54,240
Speaker 3: For sure, for sure, no, no. I did enjoy it,

588
00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:55,960
Speaker 3: but I was so nervous that, like my voice was

589
00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:57,879
Speaker 3: cracking the whole time. And I remember listening back to

590
00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:01,639
Speaker 3: it and I was just like, oh, it's like people

591
00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:04,040
Speaker 3: come to the concerts and they hear me actually sing,

592
00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:05,760
Speaker 3: you know. But then it was just like that was

593
00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:08,320
Speaker 3: a whole different situation, but shout out to Tiny Dusk.

594
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:11,000
Speaker 3: I love them and they've done so much for our culture.

595
00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:13,160
Speaker 2: So it looked like a fun time too, like everybody

596
00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:14,200
Speaker 2: was having fun.

597
00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:14,800
Speaker 1: All right.

598
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:17,120
Speaker 2: What's been the most surreal experience for you so far

599
00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:19,159
Speaker 2: to this point, Like something that you're like, man, I

600
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:20,360
Speaker 2: can't believe this happened.

601
00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:28,600
Speaker 3: Wow, that's well actually seriously opening for Sabrina. For MSG,

602
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:33,560
Speaker 3: that was crazy. I was like I had to think

603
00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:37,560
Speaker 3: about it maybe yesterday and I was like, yo, do

604
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:39,680
Speaker 3: you remember when you were like in your mom's house

605
00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:44,879
Speaker 3: in Ghana, like making songs and hoping that something would happen,

606
00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:47,440
Speaker 3: and like this is what four or five years later,

607
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:50,520
Speaker 3: and this is where you're at. This is you need

608
00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:53,359
Speaker 3: to think about that. So that has been surreal. That

609
00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:56,000
Speaker 3: was number one, and I think number two was working

610
00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:56,760
Speaker 3: with Babyface.

611
00:26:57,320 --> 00:26:58,680
Speaker 1: Wowka legends.

612
00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:01,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know. It's like I had to once again

613
00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:04,240
Speaker 3: pinch myself. This is a man whose music I love,

614
00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:07,840
Speaker 3: the Waiting to Exhale soundtrack, Like his music has soundtracked

615
00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:11,280
Speaker 3: so many moments of growth and of realization from my life.

616
00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:13,200
Speaker 3: And to be sitting across from him and he's like, yeah,

617
00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:16,120
Speaker 3: call me Kenny and he's like writing, and he takes

618
00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:18,640
Speaker 3: feedback on board. So while he's asking me my opinion

619
00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:21,520
Speaker 3: on things that he's like writing and doing, and it's like, oh,

620
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:23,920
Speaker 3: like Babyface respects me. That's crazy.

621
00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:25,399
Speaker 1: That's funny. You said that.

622
00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:27,199
Speaker 2: We had a whole conversation the other day about the

623
00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:30,879
Speaker 2: best soundtracks ever, and Black Panther was I think for

624
00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:35,239
Speaker 2: the most recent times that would make the list. But

625
00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:37,760
Speaker 2: we also, I said, Waiting to Exhale, it's definitely up there.

626
00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:41,080
Speaker 2: And as far as top soundtracks, I had Prince Preparand

627
00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:43,439
Speaker 2: at number one though, and so because Rolling Stone had

628
00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:44,880
Speaker 2: that at number one, and I agree with that.

629
00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:46,879
Speaker 3: I agree with you on that too. I think I

630
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:50,199
Speaker 3: would put I'm not gonna lie waiting to Exhale, I

631
00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:52,720
Speaker 3: think should be top five though. Yeah, when you think

632
00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:54,960
Speaker 3: about the impact of those songs and the fact that

633
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:57,639
Speaker 3: he got all these women together and told this really

634
00:27:57,680 --> 00:27:59,560
Speaker 3: incredible story across like.

635
00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:03,440
Speaker 2: Twelve Oh my god, you never forget the eleven years.

636
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:05,720
Speaker 1: What out of my life.

637
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:09,040
Speaker 3: Besides the kids, I have nothing to show.

638
00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:15,280
Speaker 2: And I was your secretary, not even secretary iconic. You know, Listen,

639
00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:18,679
Speaker 2: music is really like the soundtrack to our lives, and

640
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:20,040
Speaker 2: so you do this so well.

641
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:20,800
Speaker 1: I think.

642
00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:24,440
Speaker 2: Navy, who runs the boards and he's also a DJ.

643
00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:28,359
Speaker 2: He was saying how how Princess Going Digital was like

644
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:31,240
Speaker 2: the soundtrack for all of Williamsburg and Brooklyn, like for

645
00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:34,240
Speaker 2: the whole entire He was like, that is a song.

646
00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:36,879
Speaker 2: Isn't amazing to you to see like just your tic

647
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:39,560
Speaker 2: the tiktoks that people do to your music.

648
00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:43,920
Speaker 3: And it's so incredible. But I think that it doesn't

649
00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:47,560
Speaker 3: shock me because when I make music, I really make it, like, oh,

650
00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:50,440
Speaker 3: I need the girls to feel sexy like Princess Going Digital.

651
00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:53,320
Speaker 3: I was like, I want girls this to be their anthem,

686
00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:12,560
Speaker 3: true lover girl. I recently came to that conclusion, and

687
00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:14,920
Speaker 3: I think that what I'm really seeking is someone that

688
00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:17,000
Speaker 3: is going to give to me as much as I'm

689
00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:19,040
Speaker 3: willing to give to them. You know, like I want

690
00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:24,200
Speaker 3: someone that's equally yoked mentally, spiritually, financially, but also someone

691
00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:26,360
Speaker 3: that's like fun and daring and that's gonna push me

692
00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:29,040
Speaker 3: to be the best that I can be. So yeah,

693
00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:29,840
