0:00:00.200 --> 0:00:05.040
<v Speaker 1>Ball alert, ball alert, ball alert. Yeah it's the kid

0:00:05.080 --> 0:00:07.680
<v Speaker 1>Ferrari Simmons. What's up, young world? Is your best friends

0:00:07.680 --> 0:00:09.800
<v Speaker 1>suit so long that the baby hair is laid out?

0:00:10.360 --> 0:00:12.200
<v Speaker 1>Had a slick little poty said, I'm trying to look

0:00:12.240 --> 0:00:14.040
<v Speaker 1>good or whatever, but you know what it really is.

0:00:14.040 --> 0:00:15.840
<v Speaker 1>I got natural hair and black women. I know y'all

0:00:15.840 --> 0:00:17.959
<v Speaker 1>feel me. This little humidity in the wintertime, like it

0:00:18.000 --> 0:00:19.200
<v Speaker 1>all makes sense. I don't know what to do with

0:00:19.200 --> 0:00:21.000
<v Speaker 1>my one time for that fake snow we had over

0:00:21.000 --> 0:00:24.360
<v Speaker 1>the weekend, it was fake snow. Um well, on my

0:00:24.480 --> 0:00:27.840
<v Speaker 1>side of town. I'm very east east east east, and

0:00:27.920 --> 0:00:31.520
<v Speaker 1>we had we had snow and it just didn't stick

0:00:31.560 --> 0:00:33.680
<v Speaker 1>to the ground. My kids was expecting to play, you know,

0:00:33.760 --> 0:00:37.240
<v Speaker 1>making snowman and you know all that, but this didn't happen,

0:00:37.360 --> 0:00:39.720
<v Speaker 1>and the weather person was capped. The weather person for

0:00:39.960 --> 0:00:43.279
<v Speaker 1>Georgia was first of all. It's multiple weather people get

0:00:43.640 --> 0:00:47.000
<v Speaker 1>over the weekend, I saw lots of snow in midtown.

0:00:47.040 --> 0:00:49.640
<v Speaker 1>I also went and took a walk in midtown Atlanta.

0:00:51.760 --> 0:00:55.600
<v Speaker 1>Everyone north, there's the snow stick. Well, we don't know

0:00:55.640 --> 0:00:57.280
<v Speaker 1>what to do with snow any dam one. So I'm

0:00:57.320 --> 0:00:59.240
<v Speaker 1>glad that it did what it did. The city slick

0:00:59.280 --> 0:01:01.560
<v Speaker 1>shut down. That didn't nothing happen. It's okay. I had

0:01:01.600 --> 0:01:03.760
<v Speaker 1>my groceries. I was prepared for the shutdown. Yeah, you

0:01:03.840 --> 0:01:07.320
<v Speaker 1>probably went in overbought grocers. I live alone. I made

0:01:07.319 --> 0:01:10.840
<v Speaker 1>sure to keep it cute. How was the weekend otherwise?

0:01:11.040 --> 0:01:15.520
<v Speaker 1>My weekend was fantastic Ferarri Simmons, How was yourge Mine

0:01:15.600 --> 0:01:18.240
<v Speaker 1>was okay. My wife got stuck in North Carolina because

0:01:18.240 --> 0:01:22.880
<v Speaker 1>it actually smolled up there. Yeah, I didn't see her

0:01:23.000 --> 0:01:24.720
<v Speaker 1>from I didn't see her for a couple of days,

0:01:24.760 --> 0:01:26.679
<v Speaker 1>and I had all the kids at the house and

0:01:27.040 --> 0:01:29.319
<v Speaker 1>that was a little aggressive for me. Okay. I'm used

0:01:29.319 --> 0:01:33.480
<v Speaker 1>to having my life partner, my wife with me assisting

0:01:33.520 --> 0:01:36.840
<v Speaker 1>me and me assisting her, and no one was there

0:01:36.880 --> 0:01:42.120
<v Speaker 1>to assist me, and it was very difficult to do breakfast, lunch, dinner,

0:01:45.959 --> 0:01:49.920
<v Speaker 1>be nice and patient and empathetic and nurturing. Yeah, that

0:01:49.960 --> 0:01:52.880
<v Speaker 1>was a lot. You know, four year old she requires

0:01:52.880 --> 0:01:55.440
<v Speaker 1>a lot. Everybody else, you know, they could they kick

0:01:55.480 --> 0:02:00.160
<v Speaker 1>it and sit still. But yeah, outside of that, we uh,

0:02:00.240 --> 0:02:02.800
<v Speaker 1>we're ready to get into some ball. We got a

0:02:02.800 --> 0:02:05.520
<v Speaker 1>good show today. Eric Bellinger is in the house talking

0:02:05.560 --> 0:02:09.160
<v Speaker 1>about Chris Brown, something Street or Grammys all of that,

0:02:09.200 --> 0:02:11.160
<v Speaker 1>staying loyal to his soilers. That's what he called him.

0:02:11.160 --> 0:02:14.920
<v Speaker 1>When we was talking about the I didn't want to say,

0:02:15.240 --> 0:02:19.120
<v Speaker 1>let's get into it. We live in a crazy world

0:02:19.120 --> 0:02:21.720
<v Speaker 1>and I need everyone to look out for yourselves and

0:02:21.800 --> 0:02:24.239
<v Speaker 1>each other. A woman fell asleep on her you was

0:02:24.280 --> 0:02:27.560
<v Speaker 1>out of airlines like, only to be waking up by

0:02:27.639 --> 0:02:31.840
<v Speaker 1>a stranger feeling her all the way up. She yelled

0:02:31.880 --> 0:02:35.440
<v Speaker 1>at him stop. Then he gets up, runs to the

0:02:35.440 --> 0:02:37.480
<v Speaker 1>back of the plane, and he told on himself. He

0:02:37.520 --> 0:02:39.920
<v Speaker 1>told a flight attendant he had a disorder, and he

0:02:40.000 --> 0:02:43.840
<v Speaker 1>apologized for groping the lady on her private parts. Now

0:02:44.760 --> 0:02:48.079
<v Speaker 1>you not. The rest of that flight was extremely awkward. Now,

0:02:48.160 --> 0:02:53.000
<v Speaker 1>speaking of awkward, Kobe Kardashian is back making headlines, back

0:02:53.000 --> 0:02:56.920
<v Speaker 1>getting drags and probably not giving a damn to be real. Okay,

0:02:57.080 --> 0:02:59.480
<v Speaker 1>she don't care what your opinions are of her. But

0:03:00.120 --> 0:03:02.720
<v Speaker 1>why is she getting dragged this time, you might ask, Well,

0:03:02.760 --> 0:03:05.880
<v Speaker 1>it is because she's been selling her daughter's used clothes

0:03:06.240 --> 0:03:10.000
<v Speaker 1>for money. She's been selling it for money now right now,

0:03:10.040 --> 0:03:12.440
<v Speaker 1>mind you her in the Kardashian clan, all of them,

0:03:12.480 --> 0:03:15.720
<v Speaker 1>they always sell their clothes. But people think it's distasteful

0:03:16.160 --> 0:03:19.720
<v Speaker 1>that she would sell children's clothes at such high prices

0:03:20.120 --> 0:03:23.320
<v Speaker 1>when millions of people are so heavily affected by the pandemic. Now,

0:03:23.360 --> 0:03:27.040
<v Speaker 1>one person tweeted, so disgusted when these clothes could be

0:03:27.080 --> 0:03:29.880
<v Speaker 1>donated to people in need. Everything goes about money with

0:03:29.919 --> 0:03:33.120
<v Speaker 1>the Kardashians. I gave all my self away to people

0:03:33.160 --> 0:03:37.240
<v Speaker 1>that could use them. Okay, Now, another person said, we're

0:03:37.280 --> 0:03:40.320
<v Speaker 1>in a chronic pandemic. People have lost their jobs, food

0:03:40.320 --> 0:03:42.520
<v Speaker 1>prices are through the roof, and people can't pay their

0:03:42.520 --> 0:03:45.320
<v Speaker 1>rent or mortgage. Now I have a question for you.

0:03:45.760 --> 0:03:49.320
<v Speaker 1>Is Chloe Kardashian dad wrong for selling her daughter's clothes

0:03:49.760 --> 0:03:53.280
<v Speaker 1>or do people need to mind their business? People need

0:03:53.280 --> 0:03:58.160
<v Speaker 1>to mind their business. Yeah, exactly, thank you. Now, now

0:03:58.240 --> 0:03:59.480
<v Speaker 1>let me throw this in there. What if she got

0:03:59.480 --> 0:04:06.440
<v Speaker 1>them closed free? Now that's different, yeah, says Come on now, friends,

0:04:06.680 --> 0:04:09.640
<v Speaker 1>let's just say for ships and giggles that she got

0:04:09.640 --> 0:04:13.320
<v Speaker 1>the clothes for free. Cloth facts. I don't think designers

0:04:13.320 --> 0:04:16.120
<v Speaker 1>get closed. I'm kidding me. You think the Kardashians don't

0:04:16.160 --> 0:04:21.800
<v Speaker 1>get free closed designer closed? Yes? You think they're walking

0:04:21.800 --> 0:04:24.480
<v Speaker 1>around with free Gap T shirts? Okay, Gap? Probably? I

0:04:24.520 --> 0:04:29.320
<v Speaker 1>don't know about Gucci and I mean, I gap close.

0:04:31.440 --> 0:04:33.400
<v Speaker 1>But that's what I'm saying. And that's why the Kardashians

0:04:33.400 --> 0:04:36.159
<v Speaker 1>is getting designers says, because me and you getting the gap. Okay,

0:04:36.600 --> 0:04:39.360
<v Speaker 1>not sending us nothing, but they sent on the Kardashian stuff.

0:04:39.760 --> 0:04:44.360
<v Speaker 1>I know that. Okay, yeah, okay exactly, but nothing less

0:04:44.400 --> 0:04:46.520
<v Speaker 1>though you say people need the Monda business, she can

0:04:46.560 --> 0:04:51.960
<v Speaker 1>sell them, do what she need to do. That's her baby. Yeah,

0:04:52.000 --> 0:04:55.680
<v Speaker 1>there it is, thank you for your cases. You. So

0:04:55.839 --> 0:04:58.800
<v Speaker 1>basically it sounds like people need to mind the business

0:04:58.880 --> 0:05:03.040
<v Speaker 1>that pays them. Yeah, since we're talking about business, we

0:05:03.160 --> 0:05:07.000
<v Speaker 1>got somebody been coming in. Who is it? Eric Bellinger? Yeah,

0:05:07.000 --> 0:05:09.440
<v Speaker 1>we gotta say his name right, so Eric Bellinger. Yeah,

0:05:09.440 --> 0:05:11.800

<v Speaker 1>soil exactly. We don't want to get you banged up

0:06:06.480 --> 0:06:09.560
<v Speaker 1>with any logistics or anything. But since we are talking

0:06:09.600 --> 0:06:14.520
<v Speaker 1>about logistics, we need you to introduce yourself to our listeners. Listen,

0:06:15.680 --> 0:06:19.480
<v Speaker 1>my name is Eric Bellinger, A K eight easy right

0:06:19.560 --> 0:06:23.880

0:06:34.600 --> 0:06:37.200
<v Speaker 1>So what's crazy is there are so many talented people

0:06:37.200 --> 0:06:39.520
<v Speaker 1>that are usually behind the scenes, right and then they

0:06:39.680 --> 0:06:42.440
<v Speaker 1>I guess, decide or maybe something changes in your career

0:06:42.520 --> 0:06:45.719
<v Speaker 1>where you're ready to be at the forefront, and for

0:06:45.839 --> 0:06:48.560
<v Speaker 1>some artists there seems to be a little struggle in

0:06:48.640 --> 0:06:52.960
<v Speaker 1>the transition. Do you feel like you are being received? Well, yes,

0:06:53.160 --> 0:06:57.800
<v Speaker 1>I definitely feel um since I have been taking my

0:06:57.920 --> 0:07:01.400
<v Speaker 1>artists you more serious other people did you know, Like

0:07:01.480 --> 0:07:03.560
<v Speaker 1>when right when they saw me, I feel like dropping

0:07:03.600 --> 0:07:06.960
<v Speaker 1>mixed tapes or singles or whatever. Man have you. I

0:07:07.120 --> 0:07:08.880
<v Speaker 1>felt such support and it's like, oh, this is what

0:07:08.920 --> 0:07:12.200
<v Speaker 1>you're doing now, And it was it was only really

0:07:12.800 --> 0:07:18.840
<v Speaker 1>uh struggle and a challenge transitioning. Um, amongst people like

0:07:19.400 --> 0:07:22.440
<v Speaker 1>the big the bigger guys in the industry. They're so

0:07:22.520 --> 0:07:27.600
<v Speaker 1>used to calling me in as the worker, as the help. Yeah,

0:07:27.640 --> 0:07:29.120
<v Speaker 1>can we touch that real quick because a lot of

0:07:29.120 --> 0:07:31.200
<v Speaker 1>people don't know that you you write a lot of

0:07:31.200 --> 0:07:35.200
<v Speaker 1>records for these big artists. Are Let's not speak criptically

0:07:35.280 --> 0:07:37.880
<v Speaker 1>to the people. Now. Let me see, let me think

0:07:37.880 --> 0:07:40.960
<v Speaker 1>the biggest record you've written for somebody? All right, find

0:07:41.040 --> 0:07:44.320
<v Speaker 1>China Chris Brown. Chris Brown. That was actually even got

0:07:44.360 --> 0:07:46.560
<v Speaker 1>a Grammy in two thousand twelve for co writing Fame

0:07:46.640 --> 0:07:49.119
<v Speaker 1>with Chris Brown. Yes, yes, I had three songs on

0:07:48.960 --> 0:07:51.280
<v Speaker 1>the on the Fame album. All My Love Saying with

0:07:51.400 --> 0:07:54.440
<v Speaker 1>Me was two of the joints on there. Um. The

0:07:54.520 --> 0:07:57.440
<v Speaker 1>third one was no Lights And I think from me

0:07:57.800 --> 0:08:01.200
<v Speaker 1>just working with Chris Brown and Sure and Justin Bieber

0:08:01.240 --> 0:08:04.400
<v Speaker 1>and all these guys behind the scenes. Um, A and

0:08:04.600 --> 0:08:07.280
<v Speaker 1>RS and the top guys just kind of looked at

0:08:07.280 --> 0:08:08.640
<v Speaker 1>me like, oh yeah, we can call him in the

0:08:08.720 --> 0:08:10.400
<v Speaker 1>right a hit. We can call him in the right

0:08:10.440 --> 0:08:14.840
<v Speaker 1>a hit. And I think my original passion always being

0:08:15.240 --> 0:08:18.680
<v Speaker 1>an artist and being on stage just naturally has made

0:08:18.680 --> 0:08:21.440
<v Speaker 1>this way to the forefront organically. Do you think do

0:08:21.480 --> 0:08:23.680
<v Speaker 1>you think said not to interrupt you because I wanted

0:08:23.680 --> 0:08:25.080
<v Speaker 1>to catch you in the moment. Do you think that

0:08:25.200 --> 0:08:27.360
<v Speaker 1>sometimes the fact that you can write a hit for

0:08:27.440 --> 0:08:32.720
<v Speaker 1>somebody overlooks the artistry part of your career. I think

0:08:32.840 --> 0:08:36.640
<v Speaker 1>only in this sense of the people that I've write

0:08:36.720 --> 0:08:39.360
<v Speaker 1>songs for, they may have a bigger budget, they may

0:08:39.400 --> 0:08:41.800
<v Speaker 1>have a bigger marketing plan, they may have a bigger

0:08:41.880 --> 0:08:44.680
<v Speaker 1>you know. I like to just saying that because that's important.

0:08:44.800 --> 0:08:46.600
<v Speaker 1>It's just the team behind it, you know what I mean.

0:08:46.640 --> 0:08:49.600
<v Speaker 1>But I think now that even though I haven't signed

0:08:51.000 --> 0:08:54.400
<v Speaker 1>a major deal ever, I'm still doing an independent my

0:08:54.520 --> 0:08:58.200
<v Speaker 1>team that I have around me, it's major and I

0:08:58.280 --> 0:09:02.160
<v Speaker 1>understand the difference, and that really is what will take

0:09:02.200 --> 0:09:06.080
<v Speaker 1>a song to the next level or you know, later

0:09:06.160 --> 0:09:10.080
<v Speaker 1>be a regional sensation. So Y said, you come to

0:09:10.120 --> 0:09:12.480
<v Speaker 1>Atlanta quite often. What Atlanta artists would you want to

0:09:12.480 --> 0:09:15.959
<v Speaker 1>work with or have you worked with? Man? Uh? Last

0:09:15.960 --> 0:09:20.160

0:09:20.240 --> 0:09:23.720
<v Speaker 1>joint was called Moist, So shoututs to everybody I supported

0:09:23.720 --> 0:09:25.800
<v Speaker 1>that joint and uh man, there's so many people I

0:09:25.840 --> 0:09:28.480
<v Speaker 1>want to work with out here from ship me goes

0:09:28.480 --> 0:09:30.760
<v Speaker 1>a little baby like you just name it? You know

0:09:30.760 --> 0:09:33.560

<v Speaker 1>your career, the continue growth and every time you come Atlanta,

<v Speaker 1>every time you got to pull up, every time last

0:13:38.000 --> 0:13:39.160
<v Speaker 1>thing came up here. I think it was a couple

0:13:39.200 --> 0:13:41.360
<v Speaker 1>of years ago. Man, I've been here. That's so I

0:13:41.440 --> 0:13:42.800
<v Speaker 1>was like, oh yeah, and I know you just came

0:13:42.840 --> 0:13:46.280
<v Speaker 1>up here a few times. I hear that, but I

0:13:46.400 --> 0:13:49.040
<v Speaker 1>never really think people mean that like on some put

0:13:49.160 --> 0:13:53.400
<v Speaker 1>up listen. It's politics. It's so much when you really

0:13:53.400 --> 0:13:56.120
<v Speaker 1>think of politics involving it ain't as easy as it's up.

0:13:56.200 --> 0:13:57.960
<v Speaker 1>Y'all got a song, can'll come up there and play,

0:13:58.320 --> 0:14:00.520
<v Speaker 1>but or come up there and chill work coming in

0:14:00.559 --> 0:14:02.480
<v Speaker 1>town and can give me something to eat. It's just

0:14:02.520 --> 0:14:06.080
<v Speaker 1>some such politics. But I want to challenge myself and

0:14:06.160 --> 0:14:09.319
<v Speaker 1>every artist out there to take advantage of when people

0:14:09.360 --> 0:14:11.360
<v Speaker 1>say hit me up, hit them up, hit them up,

0:14:11.520 --> 0:14:15.080

0:14:28.280 --> 0:14:30.880

0:14:54.520 --> 0:15:00.800
<v Speaker 1>And now it's time for ballermail. Oh dear, sorry, my

0:15:00.960 --> 0:15:03.400
<v Speaker 1>on and off again girlfriend just told me if I

0:15:03.400 --> 0:15:07.400
<v Speaker 1>don't propose to her this year, it's over now. I

0:15:07.480 --> 0:15:10.640
<v Speaker 1>was saving my money to actually do it on Valentine's Day. However,

0:15:10.840 --> 0:15:13.600
<v Speaker 1>I didn't like the tone of this topic we just

0:15:13.720 --> 0:15:16.240
<v Speaker 1>had last week. We are not together at the moment

0:15:16.240 --> 0:15:20.480
<v Speaker 1>because of this very thing. The next step in commitment marriage,

0:15:21.120 --> 0:15:23.920
<v Speaker 1>But I don't want to feel pressured. Should I propose

0:15:24.040 --> 0:15:27.000
<v Speaker 1>on schedule or should I leave this potential headache alone

0:15:27.520 --> 0:15:30.360
<v Speaker 1>stressed out? We live in dat in Ohio. It's a

0:15:30.360 --> 0:15:32.440
<v Speaker 1>dear rory, But I'm just gonna jump in for two

0:15:32.560 --> 0:15:36.360
<v Speaker 1>quick seconds and just say nobody is perfect, No relationship

0:15:36.440 --> 0:15:37.960
<v Speaker 1>is perfect. I think what you need to do is

0:15:38.040 --> 0:15:40.520
<v Speaker 1>learn better communication skills. How do you get to a

0:15:40.520 --> 0:15:42.440
<v Speaker 1>point where you want to marry somebody? You already got

0:15:42.440 --> 0:15:44.640
<v Speaker 1>the damn ringing, the schedule to proposal, dating, all of that,

0:15:44.960 --> 0:15:46.720
<v Speaker 1>but you just can't talk to a person like that

0:15:46.760 --> 0:15:48.680
<v Speaker 1>don't make sense. So let's put in a little effort

0:15:48.880 --> 0:15:51.840
<v Speaker 1>to build maybe a little pre marital counseling or you know,

0:15:51.960 --> 0:15:54.440
<v Speaker 1>just boyfriend girlfriend counseling, just to see if this is

0:15:54.480 --> 0:15:56.280
<v Speaker 1>really where you want to go. But I'm not married.

0:15:56.280 --> 0:15:58.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm actually very single. So ferrari, let me shut up.

0:15:59.720 --> 0:16:02.360
<v Speaker 1>Uh uh, I ain't gonna cap this. One's a fifty

0:16:02.400 --> 0:16:05.640
<v Speaker 1>fifty of me wants to tell you this is toxic.

0:16:06.200 --> 0:16:08.600
<v Speaker 1>Y'all get the hell away from each other. The other

0:16:08.640 --> 0:16:11.240
<v Speaker 1>fifty percent of me is telling me is you're probably

0:16:11.240 --> 0:16:13.960
<v Speaker 1>being immature. You probably and she's probably telling you be

0:16:14.000 --> 0:16:15.720
<v Speaker 1>a man, step up to the plate and be a

0:16:15.720 --> 0:16:18.400
<v Speaker 1>responsible adult, and let's take it to the next level.

0:16:18.640 --> 0:16:23.160
<v Speaker 1>So uh, if either or can help me telling you

0:16:23.200 --> 0:16:25.920
<v Speaker 1>by saying you need to have an adult conversation with her,

0:16:26.000 --> 0:16:28.560
<v Speaker 1>y'all go speak to a professional and then make a

0:16:28.600 --> 0:16:33.040
<v Speaker 1>decision to uh close this chapter in your lives or

0:16:33.120 --> 0:16:36.520
<v Speaker 1>start a new chapter. Lets say it again, close this

0:16:36.600 --> 0:16:39.200
<v Speaker 1>chapter so y'all can just have some type of closure

0:16:39.240 --> 0:16:42.360
<v Speaker 1>in this relationship and stop being toxic on and off again,

0:16:42.880 --> 0:16:49.320
<v Speaker 1>or start a new chapter. Got it good? Yep, And

0:16:49.360 --> 0:16:50.760
