Speaker 4: I love how you know, just just from the Instagram.

14
00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:32,800
Speaker 6: Yeah, Instagram and running into her like I went to

15
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:35,879
Speaker 6: a few comedy shows. I started doing comedy. So it's

16
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:38,159
Speaker 6: like I've watched a bunch of comedians. Time I go

17
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:40,920
Speaker 6: watch a live I'm like, bro, she's good. Yeah, she's

18
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,600
Speaker 6: actually great. She understands the artist absolutely.

19
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:45,280
Speaker 7: How do you just start doing comedy?

20
00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:45,559
Speaker 3: Like?

21
00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:46,839
Speaker 7: What made you?

22
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:48,320
Speaker 4: Who told you?

23
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:55,160
Speaker 6: No? I started doing a lot of speaking right because

24
00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:57,120
Speaker 6: mental health stuff, and it's a different type of keynote

25
00:00:57,160 --> 00:00:59,880
Speaker 6: speaking and moderating here and there, and what I was

26
00:00:59,880 --> 00:01:02,280
Speaker 6: doing that like, you know, the audience will laugh a

27
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:04,920
Speaker 6: lot and in my family, like you know, I joke

28
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:07,040
Speaker 6: around bullshit a lot with my friends.

29
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:07,360
Speaker 3: And stuff like that.

30
00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:10,680
Speaker 6: So someone was like, yo, I think you should start

31
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:12,520
Speaker 6: doing comedy because it's going to build a different type

32
00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:15,040
Speaker 6: of confidence for speaking. And I was just like, all right,

33
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:16,679
Speaker 6: bet let me just you know, give it a try.

34
00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:19,319
Speaker 6: So I just started hosting it and I started developing

35
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 6: a love for it, and I started developing a love

36
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:25,920
Speaker 6: for it, and with that, I just you know, last year,

37
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:28,560
Speaker 6: I did like fifteen cities. This year, I started off

38
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:30,679
Speaker 6: with one. I'm probably gonna do like twelve more. And

39
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:33,520
Speaker 6: I mean it's fun. I feel like I'm already in an anomaly.

40
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:35,600
Speaker 6: By the grace of God, you know, I made it

41
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:38,559
Speaker 6: out in my situation. It's like why not just try

42
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:39,560
Speaker 6: like whatever at this point.

43
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:39,760
Speaker 3: You know.

44
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:42,119
Speaker 5: So when you were on stage, like you know, doing

45
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 5: your mental health advocacy, you was telling like your story, yeah,

46
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:47,800
Speaker 5: about things that you're going through, and people thought it

47
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:50,680
Speaker 5: was funny.

48
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 3: The way I would break it down.

49
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 6: The analogies that I use to have people, especially our community,

50
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,920
Speaker 6: grass the concept of mental health, and so I make

51
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 6: in a way that it's just digestible, you know what

52
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:05,040
Speaker 6: I'm saying and doing that. You know, people are laughing,

53
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:06,560
Speaker 6: and I'm like, you know what, what if I like

54
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,240
Speaker 6: try to like hit the stage and like just even

55
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:10,520
Speaker 6: drag it out some more.

56
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 4: It makes sense.

57
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:13,880
Speaker 5: I mean, you know they always say community to say

58
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 5: tears of a clown, right, So it's like one thing

59
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,040
Speaker 5: about black people. We know how to turn our trauma

60
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:20,800
Speaker 5: into something that either people can learn from when people

61
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:21,720
Speaker 5: can be entertained.

62
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:23,960
Speaker 3: Absolutely, yeah, absolutely, Let's let's go back.

63
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:25,640
Speaker 2: For most people that don't know who Da Vinci is,

64
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 2: or they probably Seenior but don't know the name, how

65
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:30,919
Speaker 2: did you get into the acting business? I'm sure people

66
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:33,079
Speaker 2: know you from power or from bemth How did you

67
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:34,959
Speaker 2: It's crazy, how did you get into.

68
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 3: The same block? But how did you?

69
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:46,320
Speaker 1: How did you get into acting?

70
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:47,800
Speaker 2: I know you started off as a rappers, So break

71
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:49,679
Speaker 2: the people down where you're from, how you started and

72
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:51,400
Speaker 2: you're at that.

73
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:55,960
Speaker 6: So I'm from Brooklyn and I was in Brooklyn then

74
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,840
Speaker 6: my mom moved to Jersey. My parents split up, and

75
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 6: so I was like nor Orange and North Area and

76
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:03,560
Speaker 6: then back and forth between Brooklyn and North I was

77
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 6: getting in trouble a lot.

78
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:05,440
Speaker 3: Then I moved to Florida.

79
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:09,800
Speaker 6: And then I got arrested and my dad was like, yo,

80
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 6: I gotta keep him. I was just a badass kid,

81
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 6: just following the people in my environment, the people around me.

82
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 3: And when I was in Florida, I went.

83
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:20,359
Speaker 6: To all white high school and that that kind of

84
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:22,360
Speaker 6: changed my life. That changed my perspective on life. I

85
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 6: was seeing things that I never really saw before. So

86
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:27,600
Speaker 6: it really just started developing my brain in a different way.

87
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 6: And then afterwards when I went to college, at one

88
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:32,360
Speaker 6: point my brother was like, bro, like you should we

89
00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 6: should really like try this like rappers, shit, it's entertaining shit.

90
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 3: I'm like, bro, that's impossible. It's not school.

91
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:37,600
Speaker 1: You went to college.

92
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 3: I was to college Central Florida, Central Florida.

95
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 6: And I was like, you know whatever, I'm gonna try.

96
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 6: And I moved back up north my mom's and then

107
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 6: So I was like ripping doing music there and then

108
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 6: I was in the studio.

109
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 3: I was recording a lot.

110
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 6: But then after a certain point, I was like starting

111
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 6: to lose love from it for it, because you know,

112
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 6: it was one thing when you're on the outside looking in,

113
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:20,159
Speaker 6: but then when you really start getting in the business

114
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:22,279
Speaker 6: and then you see what they're promoting, what they're pushing you,

115
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:24,280
Speaker 6: the direction that they're pushing you towards, I'm like, bro,

116
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 6: I'm not trying to perpetuate this, like like this is

117
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:28,680
Speaker 6: really like people take this serious, you know.

118
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 3: So I was like the I don't like this.

119
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 6: At the same time, I was told like, I should

120
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,560
Speaker 6: start acting too, because it's gonna help with stage presence.

121
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:37,080
Speaker 6: So I started acting. Shout out to Mark John Jefferies.

Speaker 4: How was the all white high school? What did that

143
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:16,960
Speaker 4: do for you? Other they called you to.

144
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 3: Nah? Nah? It was.

145
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 6: It was crazy because you started realizing, like how broken

146
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:29,040
Speaker 6: the environment in the community that I wasn't was, you

147
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:31,240
Speaker 6: know what I'm saying. And then when I went there,

148
00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 6: you know, people was judging me based off like they

149
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 6: was judging my intellect based off how I spoke English.

150
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:37,360
Speaker 3: Like you know, I remember one.

151
00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 6: Time I was talking to this one other black dude

152
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:41,320
Speaker 6: in my class and I was like, nigga, you weak.

153
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:44,480
Speaker 3: And she was like you weak, it's your y you possibly.

154
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:46,920

155
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:52,359
Speaker 6: scene in front of the class, and I was like.

156
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:56,160
Speaker 3: Right, right, exactly, exactly exactly right. That was crazy.

157
00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:58,800
Speaker 6: But anyway, I was like, bro, like that's all vernacular.

158
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:01,040
Speaker 6: Like we choose to speak like it because, you know,

159
00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 6: because our environment. But I could speak properly if I

160
00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 6: want to. But then I started realizing, I'm like, yo

161
00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:07,679
Speaker 6: aroun these white folks, like I gotta change how to speak.

162
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:09,920
Speaker 6: And I just started educating myself and I started reading books,

163
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:12,359
Speaker 6: and I just started changing a lot because I was like,

164
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:16,080
Speaker 6: in this environment, like my upbringing, it ain't conducive here,

165
00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 6: it ain't serving me here, like I'm just like a criminal,

166
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:20,560
Speaker 6: you know. So it changed me a lot. And then

167
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,359
Speaker 6: I had teachers that believed in me more like up North.

168
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:25,559
Speaker 6: One of my teachers, they told me, literally, I swear,

169
00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:28,160
Speaker 6: she was like most going to end up dead in

170
00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 6: jail is white, yeah North, Yeah, in Jersey actually, And

171
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:35,360
Speaker 6: I should shout out to school, but I didn't even

172
00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 6: do it.

173
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:37,680
Speaker 4: But she was off the teacher.

174
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:41,719
Speaker 6: The teacher my name was actually miss Dixon, but she

175
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 6: was like, yeah, most gonna end up or on the

176
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:46,480
Speaker 6: army or like the dead ending job. And I mean

177
00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:49,480
Speaker 6: she wasn't lying because that is what happened. We got

178
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:52,600
Speaker 6: her to this because we was just a yeah, it

179
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 6: was like I was bad as hell.

180
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 4: You ain't say that now you gotta get some content.

181
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 6: Know, But but but the thing is, but the thing is, though,

182
00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,560
Speaker 6: it's like she still could have been more positive because

183
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:08,040
Speaker 6: we was just we don't know, we was just kids,

184
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:08,200
Speaker 6: you know.

185
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:08,640
Speaker 3: What I'm saying.

186
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:10,640
Speaker 6: But when I was in Florida, like I remember, I

187
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:12,520
Speaker 6: had this teacher like I was in a like a

188
00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:15,000
Speaker 6: slower math class when I first got there, and she

189
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 6: was just like, yo, you're so smart, like you could

190
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:20,360
Speaker 6: really like like pass all the ship And I passed

191
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:21,520
Speaker 6: all my tests and she was like, you need to

192
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:23,360
Speaker 6: be in alge But honest I was like what I said,

193
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 6: I'm not gonna do that. And I went from having

194
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:26,480
Speaker 6: DS and F to graduate high school with a four

195
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:27,160
Speaker 6: point one GPA.

196
00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:29,280
Speaker 5: Wow, So you're point about the teacher. The teacher could

197
00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 5: have said, hey, if y'all don't change y'all lifestyle, if

198
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:35,120
Speaker 5: you don't change the way you're acting, then you're going

199
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:37,680
Speaker 5: to Yeah, that's how I was always did she say that?

200
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:39,600
Speaker 2: And because sometimes you only hear what you want to hear,

201
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:41,200
Speaker 2: all you hear is that ain't gonna be ship.

202
00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:43,160
Speaker 1: But you ain't missed the first part. She's like, if

203
00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:44,560
Speaker 1: y'all don't change, y'all ain't gonna be shit.

204
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:46,440
Speaker 6: Yeah, no, you probably right. She probably did say that,

205
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:48,880
Speaker 6: but I just heard like and I was like, damn.

206
00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:50,600
Speaker 6: I was like, all right, bet, I hope she have

207
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:51,000
Speaker 6: a TV.

208
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:52,400
Speaker 4: Now what you said about the school.

209
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 5: You know, Steve Harvey allegedly sends on when it's I

210
00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 5: think it's the old teacher somebody that told me, never

211
00:07:58,520 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 5: make it a TV.

212
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:00,640
Speaker 4: So he sends them every.

213
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:01,880
Speaker 1: Year since the new TV.

214
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:05,080
Speaker 3: A lot of money.

215
00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 5: But what you said about the cold twitching is real

216
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:09,880
Speaker 5: because a lot of times they try to get people

217
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:11,880
Speaker 5: flacked for cold twitching, but it's not that you cold twitching.

218
00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:14,680
Speaker 5: Sometimes you just don't want to reinforce negative stereotypes exactly

219
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 5: Black people exactly exactly.

220
00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:18,720
Speaker 6: And I feel like we perpetuate that enough of the media.

221
00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:20,720
Speaker 6: We got to some of us got to be a

222
00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:22,920
Speaker 6: good representation of us, because we're not looking.

223
00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:27,160
Speaker 8: Too good identity wise, though, Like going from your neighborhood

224
00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:29,000
Speaker 8: and which you were used to into this new school

225
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:31,000
Speaker 8: and feeling that way, like, yo, I gotta kind of

226
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,160
Speaker 8: switch it up a little bit. How did because you're

227
00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:36,360
Speaker 8: still growing up at the same time, who were you

228
00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 8: talking to about like what your identity as a man

229
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:40,720
Speaker 8: should be, because that's such a hard place to be

230
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:42,760
Speaker 8: and where you're trying to you're over here, but you

231
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:44,840
Speaker 8: come from this. You got family that are still you know,

232
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:47,160
Speaker 8: back in your old neighborhood. Like what was that journey?

233
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:52,720
Speaker 6: Like, I think, honestly, I was just by the grade.

234
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 6: I was just going through the motions, you know what

235
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:57,880
Speaker 6: I'm saying. So I really didn't have like a figure

236
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 6: to look towards as like an identity for a man.

237
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:02,199
Speaker 6: I was just I mean, my older brothers, like I'm

238
00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:04,600
Speaker 6: the baby. So my oldest brother like shout out to

239
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:06,800
Speaker 6: him down like he basically like raised us, you know,

240
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:09,480
Speaker 6: until I went to my pops. But you know, I

241
00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:11,480
Speaker 6: guess that was my idea of a man.

242
00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:12,440
Speaker 3: And he was like this.

243
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:16,200
Speaker 6: High school feena basketball player, so he was he really

244
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 6: was that father figured. So I looked up to him

245
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:20,400
Speaker 6: for real, like as much as like what a man

246
00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:22,840
Speaker 6: should be. But the rest is honestly is about a

247
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:26,120
Speaker 6: grace of guy, Like I'm super fortunate, Like I'm well

248
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,840
Speaker 6: aware that I'm not supposed to be or really like

249
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:33,120
Speaker 6: able to express myself, be disarticulate. Because the amount of

250
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:36,320
Speaker 6: feedback that I received from people, I'm like, damn, why, yeah,

251
00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:38,240
Speaker 6: so shocked. I'm like, Oh, that's because they looking at

252
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:41,800
Speaker 6: the numbers like this shouldn't happen, you know.

253
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:43,320
Speaker 3: So it's just God.

254
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:43,840
Speaker 4: That's God.

255
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 5: You know what I'm saying, Like, you know, I don't

256
00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:47,559
Speaker 5: care about no statistics. You know what I'm saying. I

257
00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:48,880
Speaker 5: don't care what you tell me. You can tell me

258
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 5: I'm one of forty million or this many people from

259
00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:53,839
Speaker 5: my hood ended up like this what they got to

260
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 5: do with me?

261
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:56,959
Speaker 3: Right? You know? No, that's facts product of grace.

262
00:09:58,320 --> 00:09:58,440
Speaker 4: Now.

263
00:09:58,440 --> 00:09:59,959
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, do you remember the first show you.

264
00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,560

266
00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:07,319
Speaker 6: Yeah, I was scared of I was just like, it

267
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:10,360
Speaker 6: was two weeks after I signed with an agency, and

268
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 6: I remember like my manager calling me at the time

269
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:15,720
Speaker 6: and she was like hey, she was like, hey, you

273
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:23,199
Speaker 6: I was like, and I just remember being shocked and

274
00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:24,760
Speaker 6: I just felt like Will Smith in that Pursuit of

275
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,880
Speaker 6: Happiest Moment. I was just in the Bronx walking from

00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:46,199
Speaker 6: and when I was born, my face was like disfigured

284
00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:48,120
Speaker 6: and shit like that. And then he took me to

285
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 6: some lab and then fixed it. And then Jessica Jones

286
00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:52,880
Speaker 6: was trying to find out how did that happen?

287
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:53,760

293
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:04,839
Speaker 3: Now.

294
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:06,439

00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:13,960
Speaker 5: Now now you want to the Marriag J Blige Family

298
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:16,520
Speaker 5: Affairs series. The thirdest thawing of the series is, uh,

299
00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:20,840
Speaker 5: what is it called? Has it been doing that?

300
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:23,400
Speaker 3: That's been great? Honestly, it's it was.

301
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:26,640
Speaker 6: That's probably one of my most favorite projects, only because

302
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:28,360
Speaker 6: it was a role that had nothing to do with

303
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:28,920
Speaker 6: being black.

304
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:31,079
Speaker 3: It was just existing, you know what I'm saying.

305
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:34,440
Speaker 6: And it promotes the family nucleus, you know, in the

306
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:37,520
Speaker 6: black community specifically. I feel like a lot of us,

307
00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:40,360
Speaker 6: you know, we promote things that is to our demise

308
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:42,680
Speaker 6: and to our destruction. So to be a part of

309
00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:45,640
Speaker 6: a project so early in my career, you know, that

310
00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:49,320
Speaker 6: is promoting you know, what happens when having a family,

311
00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:50,840
Speaker 6: the sacrifices that's being made and.

312
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:51,280
Speaker 3: Stuff like that.

313
00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 6: I might, bro, that's fire, bro, because it's it's done

314
00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:56,760
Speaker 6: in a way that I feel like, you know, some

315
00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:58,840

00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:05,959
Speaker 3: So to play something like this, it's like, Bro, I

Speaker 8: watching it, I was like, wow, he loves her so much.

329
00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:34,959
Speaker 8: But there were times, I mean, y'all had there was

330
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:36,400
Speaker 8: a lot that y'all had to deal with, Like I

331
00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:38,600
Speaker 8: don't want to give it away, but as an EP

332
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,000
Speaker 8: on the project, because you're EP right on the project,

333
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:43,680
Speaker 8: are you gonna involved EP where you're making those decisions

334
00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:46,880
Speaker 8: to show like it was like subtle moments like one

335
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:48,440
Speaker 8: time I think y'all went to a restaurant and she

336
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:50,560
Speaker 8: didn't order something and you notice and you're like, what's

337
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:52,520
Speaker 8: wrong because you didn't order blah blah blah.

338
00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:53,480
Speaker 7: Little stuff like that.

339
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:55,120
Speaker 8: Are you being like, oh, we should do that as

340
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:57,120
Speaker 8: an EP or is that coming frowhere else?

341
00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,800
Speaker 6: Like that that adjustment though, But a lot of things

342
00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:02,000
Speaker 6: like yeah, I'm definitely like behind see, I'm like, guys,

343
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:03,760
Speaker 6: we can't put this out like I'm like, bro, this

344
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 6: is not like this don't really happen, you know. And

345
00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:08,160
Speaker 6: a lot of times it was dope because they gave

346
00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:10,760
Speaker 6: us the creative freedom to say certain things because oftentimes

347
00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:14,199
Speaker 6: stories like this, a different race is heavily involved, Like

348
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 6: there's Caucasian producers that really don't really know some of

349
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:19,880
Speaker 6: the intricate details what happened in the black community.

350
00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:21,600
Speaker 3: So they really like sat back.

351
00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 6: A lot of times it was very like collaborative, you know,

352
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:27,160
Speaker 6: and shout out to the producers John, Jordan, Davis, Jeremy

353
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:30,319
Speaker 6: and everyone, Bruce and everyone, Mary of course, like all

354
00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:30,520
Speaker 6: of them.

355
00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:31,640
Speaker 3: So it was fire because.

356
00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:33,920
Speaker 6: I was really able to be like nah, guys, like nah,

357
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:36,120
Speaker 6: this is going to send the wrong message, and like

358
00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:38,480
Speaker 6: they listened. I was like, Yo, this was is crazy,

359
00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:41,480
Speaker 6: Like what like people don't even know, Like I really influenced.

360
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:42,600
Speaker 5: That before you was in the business, did you pay

361
00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:44,760
Speaker 5: attention to the images of black people on television? Cause

362
00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:48,559
Speaker 5: I heard you mention that a few times.

363
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,440
Speaker 6: And I thought it was very disrespectful personally, Like you

364
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:52,640
Speaker 6: know a lot of times that you meet Europeans or

365
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,840
Speaker 6: white people that's really not exposed to black people in

366
00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:58,920
Speaker 6: this country. They have this preconceived notion that we're like

367
00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:02,079
Speaker 6: very ignorant. Amount of times that people are like, oh man,

368
00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:04,199
Speaker 6: you're so young and you speak so well, and particularly

369
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:05,240
Speaker 6: I'm like as opposed to what.

370
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:07,920
Speaker 3: I'm like, Yeah, I'm like, bro.

371
00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:11,200
Speaker 6: Like it's like because it's that many people that is

372
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:14,480
Speaker 6: like because oftentimes what we do and I've been watching

373
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:17,240
Speaker 6: because I've been watching out for a while and different things,

374
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:19,120
Speaker 6: and I'd be like, bro, it's like they'd be asking

375
00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:22,120
Speaker 6: the right questions to the wrong people sometimes and they

376
00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:24,960
Speaker 6: say something like, oh my god, now the world think

377
00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:26,560
Speaker 6: that's how we all think.

378
00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:33,760
Speaker 3: And I'm like, no, now that was a good one.

379
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:35,560
Speaker 6: But it's just like I'm like, bro, you haven't people

380
00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:37,920
Speaker 6: answer certain questions about politics and they don't know shit

381
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:39,800
Speaker 6: about it or certain things about it. I'm just like

382
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:42,000
Speaker 6: important things. I'm like, bro, And I'm not trying to

383
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:43,960
Speaker 6: sit and say I know everything. I would it's okay

384
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:45,640
Speaker 6: to say I don't know. I'd be like, bro, I

385
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 6: don't have enough information on this, so I'm not about

386
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:50,040
Speaker 6: to just give the wrong information. But you know, and

387
00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:52,040
Speaker 6: when that happens a lot or or the content and like,

388
00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:54,640
Speaker 6: I mean, we're looked at as violent as fuck, Like

389
00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:57,440
Speaker 6: people are scared of us, boy, Like I'm brother.

390
00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:00,960
Speaker 3: Our stereotypes is just it's crazy. We're perpetuating the hell

391
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:01,240
Speaker 3: out of it.

392
00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, you're absolutely right, but that's something that was designed

393
00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:07,840
Speaker 5: since the beginning of it, That's true. It's not even

394
00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:10,280
Speaker 5: about this modern day era of media that we're in.

395
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:14,800
Speaker 5: Like literally, the big black man has been the villain

396
00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:17,080
Speaker 5: in history forever.

397
00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:20,960
Speaker 6: Right, right, and to justify slavery and racism and all

398
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:22,280
Speaker 6: this stuff towards black people.

399
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:24,920
Speaker 3: But I just feel like we don't have to perpetuate it,

400
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:25,760
Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying.

401
00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:27,720
Speaker 6: But a lot of times it's like because during the

402
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:30,560
Speaker 6: Reconstruction era, that little short twelve years, like we were

403
00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:34,000
Speaker 6: outpacing white people really like like fast in this country.

404
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:35,880
Speaker 6: And then that's when you know, the whole concept of

405
00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:38,840
Speaker 6: black people do eye and they started just tarnishing our

406
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:40,600
Speaker 6: image and making us look like the most feared thing

407
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:43,360
Speaker 6: on planning earth. Right, But then it's just like and

408
00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:45,240
Speaker 6: not the only ways we get famous, I mean, the

409
00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:48,160
Speaker 6: only way we get successful is usually like a situation

410
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,440
Speaker 6: that's just such an anomaly, you know, like for every

411
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:52,400
Speaker 6: like I love fifty, I love whole I love it,

412
00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:54,320
Speaker 6: but like for every one fifty, for every one hole

413
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:57,040
Speaker 6: you know how many millions being locked up? Yeah, you

414
00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:59,800
Speaker 6: know what I'm saying, Like that's it's you know, that's crazy,

415
00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:02,160
Speaker 6: like or for everyone Lebron like to be a Lebron,

416
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 6: but that's point. Zers of God only make a handful

417
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 6: of big niggas that can move like that, and so

418
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:09,440
Speaker 6: many people like really think they can be that. I'm like, bro,

419
00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:11,920
Speaker 6: like you got your priority fucked up, Like you're going

420
00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:14,920
Speaker 6: after something that is far from the majority, Like you're

421
00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:17,560
Speaker 6: going after something that is pure favor and grace, and

422
00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:20,800
Speaker 6: that's a favor, that's a supernatural advantage that God gave

423
00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:23,160
Speaker 6: you to really fulfill his will and his jobs. It

424
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:25,400
Speaker 6: was like that's not something that you could really bank on, bro,

425
00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:27,600
Speaker 6: you know. And it's like but you got like we're

426
00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:31,440
Speaker 6: banking on these things, which is like crazy, you're.

427
00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:32,720
Speaker 4: Not wrong or it is intentional.

428
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:34,760
Speaker 5: You ever seen that old movie it's old though, like

429
00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:36,920
Speaker 5: it's dumb more called Birth of a Nation and it

430
00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:41,200
Speaker 5: showed all of the black people and basically they were

431
00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:44,240
Speaker 5: elected officials and they were like, you know, eating chicken

432
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:46,680
Speaker 5: with their feet and licking their fingers like it was

433
00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:49,240
Speaker 5: just that's where actually the negative stereotype of chicken came from.

434
00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 5: But they did that because they wanted to show this

435
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:54,640
Speaker 5: is what happens if you put black people in politics, and.

436
00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:57,400
Speaker 4: This was like in the parities. I think it was.

437
00:16:57,680 --> 00:16:59,400
Speaker 4: So it's absolutely intentional.

438
00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:02,920
Speaker 5: And I always think about like after the nineties, because

439
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:05,040
Speaker 5: we didn't we grew up on in a very positive era.

440
00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:09,320
Speaker 5: We had great representation of great music on TV and music, right,

441
00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:11,520
Speaker 5: so you had the Cosby Show in the Different World

442
00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:14,359
Speaker 5: and the Martins and the Living Singles and the Girls,

443
00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:17,720
Speaker 5: like all of these shows showed black people just being great,

444
00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:21,159
Speaker 5: working class right Americans, And it was like it was

445
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:24,160
Speaker 5: like it was like an intentional shift to reality television.

446
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:25,080
Speaker 3: Right. Why do you think that is?

447
00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:28,159
Speaker 5: I don't ask everybody from the nineties that question, Like

448
00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:30,320
Speaker 5: I asked, like Michael Jamon wanted up here Eric that

449
00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:31,000
Speaker 5: I asked him that.

450
00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:32,520
Speaker 1: Because it wasn't like it wasn't successful.

451
00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:35,200
Speaker 4: It was super successful. Cosbe showed the number one show

452
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:37,439
Speaker 4: on television. Different World was number two, So it's like,

453
00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:40,560
Speaker 4: how does that happen? It was intentional, and you know.

454
00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:43,640
Speaker 3: I think, yeah, I know something. Yeah, just not saying

455
00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:44,239
Speaker 3: I just got here.

456
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:44,720

00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:37,680

Speaker 6: like I've been in this ship long and Glow has

478
00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:45,200
Speaker 6: been around. And then second of all, like other people

479
00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:46,480
Speaker 6: coming up to me and saying, oh my god, you

480
00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:48,199
Speaker 6: don't trap my girl.

00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:50,480
Speaker 3: And it was like yeah, and they was thinking I

482
00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:51,240
Speaker 3: trapped Glow.

483
00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:53,880
Speaker 6: I'm like, yo, I make like a good like salary,

484
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:56,520
Speaker 6: Like I've been making good money. Like before Glow even

485
00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:58,920
Speaker 6: came into this, I'm like, you're saying I trapped her.

486
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:01,960
Speaker 3: That's crazy you. Her following is like, legit, bro, are.

487
00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:03,200
Speaker 4: You gonna put a ring on? Or you're just gonna

488
00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:03,480
Speaker 4: keep it.

489
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:05,439
Speaker 3: More?

490
00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:05,800
Speaker 1: Kids?

491
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:11,280
Speaker 3: Nah, that's a thing. Glow on kids. Glows focused on

492
00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:13,080
Speaker 3: career right now, that's priority.

493
00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:16,840
Speaker 5: Who introduced you to just you know, therapy and mental health?

494
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:18,320
Speaker 5: Like like who told you, like, you know you need

495
00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:19,639
Speaker 5: to go out there and do some work on yourself.

496
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:21,480
Speaker 5: Why did you have people around you that was doing

497
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:22,480
Speaker 5: it and you decided to do it?

498
00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:23,240
Speaker 3: That's good?

499
00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:25,720
Speaker 6: I think I think it's my boys like that. You know,

500
00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:29,280
Speaker 6: I got some friends that you know, are strong believers

501
00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:32,760
Speaker 6: in the Bible, like whether it's their Conservative Christians, their Pentecostal,

502
00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:35,080
Speaker 6: to hold a witness, things like that, And in the

503
00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:38,080
Speaker 6: conversations that we have, oftentimes when I'm talking to them,

504
00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:40,040
Speaker 6: it's like they hold up a reflection in my face.

505
00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:43,159
Speaker 6: And it's really good because a lot of times with

506
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:47,359
Speaker 6: certain spiritual things, it's like you could only see yourself spiritually,

507
00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:50,359
Speaker 6: just like you can only see yourself physically through a mirror,

508
00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:52,439
Speaker 6: or if somebody is telling you there's some way for it.

509
00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:54,080
Speaker 6: If I'm telling you there's some way for it, and

510
00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:56,520
Speaker 6: there's no mirrors, ever, you've got to trust what I say.

511
00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:59,040
Speaker 6: So there's certain things that only another person can see

512
00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 6: that's in your soul. So I I think I've been

513
00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:03,960
Speaker 6: fortunate enough to be around people that you know, they

514
00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:06,600
Speaker 6: hold me accountable, you know what I'm saying, if I'm

515
00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:09,399
Speaker 6: acting a certain way, or if I'm just not if

516
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:11,840
Speaker 6: I'm just being too fleshly, you know, they bring that

517
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:12,560
Speaker 6: to the forefront.

518
00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:14,960
Speaker 3: So which forced me to go to therapy. At one point.

519
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:17,280
Speaker 3: It was like, bro, you know you could just do it.

520
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:19,600
Speaker 6: And I was like, man, because I grew up with like,

521
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:21,480
Speaker 6: oh geez, the way it's just like they call that

522
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 6: all type of soft weak names that exactly everything they

523
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:29,680
Speaker 6: needed the most right, And then I went I went

524
00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:31,880
Speaker 6: there and then you know, just thinking about certain things

525
00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:33,800
Speaker 6: in my childhood and that the way they was breaking

526
00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:35,760
Speaker 6: that down and bring it up. I was like, yo,

527
00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:38,480
Speaker 6: I'm like, bro, we all need this, and it's like

528
00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:41,240
Speaker 6: a superpower. It's like the first time I feel like

529
00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:43,040
Speaker 6: you ever just look at yourself in the mirror, get

530
00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:44,359
Speaker 6: a haircut and brush your teeth.

531
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:46,320
Speaker 3: Like that's what it does spiritually to you.

532
00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:48,640
Speaker 6: Like a lot of people are walking around like bro,

533
00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:50,920
Speaker 6: they like they're so unaware of what's going on, and

534
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:53,920
Speaker 6: the ironic things, like they think they know so much.

535
00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:55,840
Speaker 3: It's like the people that's just.

536
00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:58,320
Speaker 6: So far from themselves and from reality. They got the

537
00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:00,600
Speaker 6: biggest opinions and know so much. But you know, I

538
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:02,440
Speaker 6: feel like when you go there, it kind of humbles

539
00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:04,159
Speaker 6: you and it allows you to see yourself from like

540
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:07,080
Speaker 6: a third party perspective, and it's healing.

541
00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:08,160
Speaker 3: Man, we need that.

542
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:11,320
Speaker 8: In the family affair, you deal with your brother who

543
00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:14,680
Speaker 8: has a mental health issues himself, and you try to

544
00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:16,320
Speaker 8: help him through that he stops taking his meds. This's

545
00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:18,240
Speaker 8: a bunch of stuff that happens. But then also you

546
00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:20,880
Speaker 8: start having your own like struggles because you.

547
00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:21,560
Speaker 7: Have a lot of pressure.

548
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:24,720
Speaker 8: And I remember the first scene when you're in your

549
00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:28,160
Speaker 8: office and it's like an anxiety attack. And I recognize

550
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:30,040
Speaker 8: it as an anxiety attack because we talk about it

551
00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:32,760
Speaker 8: a lot. But do you have people reaching out to you?

552
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:35,720
Speaker 8: I guess it didn't are yet never mind scratch that

553
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:39,040
Speaker 8: question in you doing that? Does it trigger anything for you?

554
00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:41,080
Speaker 8: Because you had to go through therapy yourself. I'm assuming

555
00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:43,320
Speaker 8: you dealt with some stuff that was heavy, kind of

556
00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:45,480
Speaker 8: like with your character Ben deal with Like did any

557
00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:46,320
Speaker 8: of that trigger you?

558
00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:46,960
Speaker 3: Definitely?

559
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:50,520
Speaker 6: Definitely, Like I I my life at home is like

560
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:56,520
Speaker 6: that's a tough one. Like you know, my brothers, My

561
00:21:56,600 --> 00:22:00,159
Speaker 6: brothers go through it and then going through it. My

562
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:02,959
Speaker 6: family gone, like they're going through it currently, you know.

563
00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:06,040
Speaker 6: So there's definitely a lot of pressure. You know that

564
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,600
Speaker 6: that movie in a way it was kind of mirroring

565
00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:12,280
Speaker 6: like some real stuff in life. But yeah, I just

566
00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:14,240
Speaker 6: I just try to keep good people around to just

567
00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:15,600
Speaker 6: help carry me and lift me up.

568
00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:17,919
Speaker 3: But yeah, it's a lot going on back home.

569
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:20,320
Speaker 6: And usually when you're the one that, like, you know,

570
00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:23,280
Speaker 6: you make it out, so to speak, it's like it

571
00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:26,000
Speaker 6: is a blessing and a curse, you know, because then

572
00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:29,000
Speaker 6: you start speaking the language that nobody around you understand anymore,

573
00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:33,600
Speaker 6: and it's like it's you're speaking everything but English, and

574
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:36,600
Speaker 6: it's the most frustrating thing because it's like you watch

575
00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:39,199
Speaker 6: the way you can help somebody, they're asking you for

576
00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:41,240
Speaker 6: advice within the things that you're saying, they're not even

577
00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:43,840
Speaker 6: taking it. And then you're just like it's almost going

578
00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:45,879
Speaker 6: to drive you into insanity when you're the only when

579
00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:48,040
Speaker 6: that makes out, and then you're forced to create an

580
00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:50,520
Speaker 6: extended family. Thank God that we can meet people and

581
00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:53,280
Speaker 6: have this family. But at the same time, you're just

582
00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:56,880
Speaker 6: receiving so much shit from back home that it's like

583
00:22:57,040 --> 00:23:01,439
Speaker 6: it's it's such a fucked up thing, Like it's like

584
00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:03,000
Speaker 6: it's not what it's all cracked out to be.

585
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:03,960
Speaker 3: It's it's a blessing.

586
00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:06,560
Speaker 6: Because yeah, you're financially free, but that you've been tationed

587
00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:08,639
Speaker 6: this financial freedom, but you've been also building yourself in

588
00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:11,840
Speaker 6: a prison simultaneously, and you're like, damn.

589
00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:13,359
Speaker 1: When do you separate though? When do you say? You

590
00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:15,440
Speaker 1: know what? Sometimes I gotta step away so I can

591
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:16,199
Speaker 1: be free mentally.

592
00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:18,639
Speaker 6: That's why I got a lot of dogs, and I

593
00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:20,560
Speaker 6: go on I go into nature, and most of my

594
00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:23,160
Speaker 6: friends is not entertainers, Like I love the.

595
00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:26,000
Speaker 3: Business Hollywood, but that's not like that's not a real place.

596
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:28,320
Speaker 6: Had I had a real life, you know, so, and

597
00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:30,280
Speaker 6: I'm so aware that that's not a real place. And

598
00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:32,760
Speaker 6: that's the way I try to separate out of that.

599
00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:34,600
Speaker 6: And I just I ride horses, just I just do

600
00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:36,840
Speaker 6: mashing in nature. Bro Like that's the only thing that's

601
00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:39,760
Speaker 6: when I communicate with God, I free scripture, Like God

602
00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:42,199
Speaker 6: is the real reason why I'm like saying, like the

603
00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:45,520
Speaker 6: reason why I was talking to the Surgeon General about

604
00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:47,439
Speaker 6: this in the US doctor for Fake Murthy. So he

605
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:49,840
Speaker 6: hit me up last year to hop on the last

606
00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:52,639
Speaker 6: leg of his tour what we have made to connect

607
00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:55,640
Speaker 6: because of the national crisis right now, the mental health situation,

608
00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:58,760
Speaker 6: and we were just having these conversations.

609
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:01,760
Speaker 3: Man, he was just like, it's literally because.

610
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:05,800
Speaker 6: We're not connecting to higher power anymore, you know, And

611
00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:07,840
Speaker 6: it's like we literally have I believe it's like a

612
00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:10,639
Speaker 6: worship chromosome and like every human being to praise the

613
00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:12,600
Speaker 6: deity to do this, but we're doing we're taking on

614
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:15,800
Speaker 6: these burdening these burdens in a narcissistic way, and like

615
00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:18,560
Speaker 6: we're carrying a weight that we were never meant to carry.

616
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:20,639
Speaker 6: Like we're trying to fight this battle that's way bigger

617
00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:22,879
Speaker 6: than us. And when you just put all your worries,

618
00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:24,720
Speaker 6: you can't sell all that onto the Lord. Like it's

619
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:26,800
Speaker 6: like it seems like a lot, but you're like, nah,

620
00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:28,320
Speaker 6: I'm good, Like I know, I'm just fighting a good

621
00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:30,480
Speaker 6: fighting bro. Like this really is bad. I'm just a soldier,

622
00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:32,520
Speaker 6: so it just it alleviates that. And that's how I'm

623
00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:35,000
Speaker 6: able to just go about my day like, by the

624
00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:37,600
Speaker 6: grace of God. I'm not on any type of you know,

625
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:40,320
Speaker 6: certain stabilizers mentally or whatever, because.

626
00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:41,000
Speaker 3: God is that for me.

627
00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:43,679
Speaker 4: You let a lot of people let ego lead instead.

628
00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:44,280
Speaker 1: Of letting God lead.

629
00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:46,439
Speaker 3: Absolutely, you know, that's.

630
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:47,960
Speaker 4: What I always tell folks. But I believe in God

631
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:48,600
Speaker 4: and therapy.

632
00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:50,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, if you're a religious person, like I'm not gonna

633
00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:53,040
Speaker 5: sit down and talk to nobody, Well, I respect you

634
00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:55,320
Speaker 5: for being religious, and I'm a spiritual person, not religious,

635
00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:57,600
Speaker 5: but I believe in God and going to therapy.

636
00:24:57,600 --> 00:25:01,240
Speaker 6: And I appreciate that. Man, what you preach, because you

637
00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:04,399
Speaker 6: talk about therapy a lot in your book and interviews

638
00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:06,159
Speaker 6: and certain things. I was like, yo, like he's not

639
00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:08,280
Speaker 6: just like he just don't talk man ship.

640
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:09,040
Speaker 3: Like you really.

641
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:12,359
Speaker 4: Like I started going to therapy.

642
00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:13,800
Speaker 3: Oh that's what's up. Man.

643
00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:16,080
Speaker 5: At twenty sixteen, I started. I started going to therapy.

644
00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:18,159
Speaker 5: And I think, whether you want to or not, if

645
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:19,920
Speaker 5: you're doing it for real, it's.

646
00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:20,399
Speaker 4: Going to change.

647
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:21,240
Speaker 3: Absolutely.

648
00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:24,119
Speaker 5: You can't. You can't hide it. Like being Mexican belly

649
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:26,680
Speaker 5: when he was under cover, you know in the nation.

650
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:30,840
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, he was undercover, but it got to him.

651
00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:31,760
Speaker 4: It's like, yoh, shoot.

652
00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:34,359
Speaker 5: So once you start doing it, like it's going to

653
00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:36,160
Speaker 5: change if you're doing it for it's inevitable.

654
00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:38,600
Speaker 2: No, you're right, it's one hundreds right absolutely. Now I

655
00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:41,120
Speaker 2: want to go to BMF. How did you get BMTH?

656
00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:42,640
Speaker 2: How is that that situation?

657
00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:45,040
Speaker 6: That was man that was fired? I was actually doing

658
00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 6: the pandemic, so like I was fortunate enough. Again, Man,

659
00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:50,640
Speaker 6: I hate to keep saying God.

660
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:53,920
Speaker 4: But no, I would hate to say I don't.

661
00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:56,040
Speaker 3: I don't want to be that person. But like God's

662
00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:57,600
Speaker 3: timing is crazy.

663
00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:00,679
Speaker 6: So like right before the pandemic was blown up on

664
00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:04,240
Speaker 6: All American, and when the pandemic came, All American got

665
00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:06,000
Speaker 6: way bigger, Like it was like the biggest show in

666
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:08,399
Speaker 6: the world because everyone's saying the ass at home. So

667
00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:11,719
Speaker 6: we was like we got so famous that it was

668
00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:14,919
Speaker 6: it was unprecedented, Like it was like there was going

669
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:17,680
Speaker 6: to cancel the show on c W and Netflix made

670
00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:19,680
Speaker 6: this show like just a household.

671
00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:22,440
Speaker 3: Name and and doing that. I had like.

672
00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:25,400
Speaker 6: Three different offers for different shows, and I saw BMD coming.

673
00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:27,240
Speaker 3: I was like I was like, oh, this is fire.

674
00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:28,800
Speaker 6: But I was like, for a second, I thought it

675
00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:30,280
Speaker 6: was one of the power things because I'm not gonna lie.

676
00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:31,320
Speaker 3: I never wanted to do power.

677
00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:34,399
Speaker 6: I never only because it's like I feel like I

678
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:38,200
Speaker 6: wanted my first drug thing story to be a true story.

679
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:40,960
Speaker 6: I didn't want to just do it just to do it,

680
00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:43,640
Speaker 6: because when you're doing it, and no shade to anybody

681
00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:45,600
Speaker 6: that do it. The Little Power Boys Michael and Ganny,

682
00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:48,920
Speaker 6: I love Little Power I love they cool. They cool,

683
00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:51,320

00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:54,880
Speaker 6: little and stature and just every Jesus. But but nah,

685
00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:56,960
Speaker 6: not just that, not just that. But I was just like,

686
00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:58,440
Speaker 6: if I'm gonna do that like I would, it would

687
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:00,760
Speaker 6: be fire if it's like a true story, you know.

688
00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:02,600
Speaker 6: And I was like, Yo, this is two brothers that

689
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:05,119
Speaker 6: ran one of the larger domestic distributions the history of

690
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:05,560
Speaker 6: this country.

691
00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:07,080
Speaker 3: And I was like, bro, this is crazy.

Speaker 6: the showrunner, a lot of producers, and it was like

695
00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:17,119
Speaker 6: one audition that I like, I tested and I was

00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:28,119
Speaker 6: that whatever, whatever, And I booked it and I was

00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:30,000
Speaker 6: like bro, and I actually went out for b Mickey

700
00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:33,320
Speaker 6: and taow Yeah, so I really Yeah.

701
00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:34,360
Speaker 4: Did you ever sit with Tea?

702
00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:37,560
Speaker 3: Yeah? Absolutely, Okay, that's a that's a real that's a

703
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:39,760
Speaker 3: real dude. Man. It's a solid guy, you know. And

704
00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:42,440
Speaker 3: he's like he's like an oracle.

705
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:45,520
Speaker 6: He's just like this wise og that just sit back,

706
00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:48,720
Speaker 6: you know, and then just he narrated from his perspective,

707
00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:50,680
Speaker 6: but he tried not to get in a way. And honestly,

708
00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:53,000
Speaker 6: one of the greatest compliments he gave me was when

709
00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:55,119
Speaker 6: he was just like, Bro, the way he portraying his

710
00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:58,440
Speaker 6: character is fire. And even off screen, it's like when

711
00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 6: people see you, they see me and everything that you're doing,

712
00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:02,600
Speaker 6: it's such a great representation of me.

713
00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:03,560
Speaker 3: And I just want to say thank you.

714
00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:06,240
Speaker 6: I'm like, to me, that was like an Emmy, you know, like,

715
00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:08,040
Speaker 6: forget what the critic's got to say. Like the man

716
00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:10,880
Speaker 6: that I'm portraying is like saying thank you, and you're

717
00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:11,680
Speaker 6: doing a hell of a job.

718
00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:12,880
Speaker 3: I'm like, bro, that's crazy.

719
00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:14,240
Speaker 5: Let me have a question because you know it is

720
00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:15,840
Speaker 5: based on a true story, but you talk about the

721
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:20,359
Speaker 5: negative images of black people. BMF was huge drug dealers,

722
00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:23,000
Speaker 5: So how do you justify playing that role?

723
00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:23,560
Speaker 3: Right?

724
00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:25,640
Speaker 6: No, which is a great question because I've been asked

725
00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:28,240
Speaker 6: that before. This interview said the same thing, and I

726
00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 6: was like, okay, and it was like, how do you

727
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:33,080
Speaker 6: feel that you're promoting that any you're perpetuating this image.

728
00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:35,000
Speaker 6: I was like, well, if you watch an eight twenty

729
00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:37,080
Speaker 6: four a Blumhouse film or anything like that, or like

730
00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:40,560
Speaker 6: a scream and somebody's like stablished someone fifty seven thousand times,

731
00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:42,360
Speaker 6: do you think that I'm going to go stab someone

732
00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:43,440
Speaker 6: fifty seven thousand times?

733
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:45,440
Speaker 3: No? And if that's what you're thinking, you probably shouldn't

734
00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:46,200
Speaker 3: watch TV. Right.

735
00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:49,600
Speaker 6: So what I'm doing is like I feel like, one,

736
00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:51,320
Speaker 6: you should receive it in the same manner that.

737
00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:53,440
Speaker 3: It's art, but two is a true story. That's a

738
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:54,280
Speaker 3: true story.

739
00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:57,640
Speaker 6: About black people that was part of one of the

740
00:28:57,640 --> 00:29:00,600
Speaker 6: most successful human trafficking in the history of the world.

741
00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:02,120
Speaker 3: The trans and landing.

742
00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:04,440
Speaker 6: Slave trade was one of the most successful human traffick

743
00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:08,080
Speaker 6: Actually it probably is is. Actually, Yeah, the so you

744
00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,840
Speaker 6: got these two brothers in when slavery was abolished and

745
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:13,080
Speaker 6: all this stuff was happening. Now you got these brothers

746
00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:15,680
Speaker 6: in the middle of nowhere. Everybody know poverty is the

747
00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:18,720
Speaker 6: mother of all crime. They know, statistics show it. Benjamin

748
00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:21,000
Speaker 6: Franklins said that all the founding fathers know. That's why

749
00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:23,320
Speaker 6: systemically they put these positions. They put these things in

750
00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:26,560
Speaker 6: a certain position just for you too, fell right, and

751
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:29,760
Speaker 6: you got these brothers that rose out of that, that

752
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:34,160
Speaker 6: created this organization and ran this organization that they ran.

753
00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:36,400
Speaker 6: And I just asked people, I challenged them to be like,

754
00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:39,680
Speaker 6: imagine if they had a better environment, that would have

755
00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 6: been Steve Jobs, that could have been the right brothers,

756
00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:44,760
Speaker 6: that could have been Elon Muskin. Then that could have been,

757
00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:47,560
Speaker 6: you know, to have that courage and to lead that

758
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:49,640
Speaker 6: many men to really listen to you and follow you

759
00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:55,560
Speaker 6: and salute to you in what you're doing, especially right exactly,

760
00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:58,880
Speaker 6: not exactly, and something illegal too, because you know, if

761
00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:00,480
Speaker 6: we're doing something illegal together, I don't really got to

762
00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:01,800
Speaker 6: listen to because I could tell the cops on you

763
00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:04,520
Speaker 6: at any moment. But they had, you know what I'm saying,

764
00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:05,120
Speaker 6: I'm like, bro.

765
00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:07,520
Speaker 3: No, they had a cold bro, that's crazy.

766
00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:09,360
Speaker 6: So I just challenged people to look at it from

767
00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:11,880
Speaker 6: that perspective and be like, damn, Like we're a product

768
00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:13,560
Speaker 6: of you know, I still think we live in a

769
00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:16,080
Speaker 6: great country, but you know, the founding fathers of this

770
00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:19,240
Speaker 6: country building on a certain plans field, and you got

771
00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:22,800
Speaker 6: brothers that rose out at a time that there wasn't

772
00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:25,280
Speaker 6: positive influences at all. So I think if they were

773
00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:27,680
Speaker 6: born in different times of better influences, they would have

774
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:29,160
Speaker 6: been scientists, they would have been anything else.

775
00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:33,280
Speaker 5: Ever, read the book Outlives No by Malcolm Gladwell and

776
00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:35,080
Speaker 5: he talks about that in the book, and he just

777
00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:37,880
Speaker 5: talks about how like all of these different people at

778
00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:41,040
Speaker 5: different points in time were like they were basically being

779

00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:50,960
Speaker 5: the same time. They're all around the same age, but

783
00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:54,640

1008
00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:36,160
Speaker 3: Like what's your dream? Ro? But probably to play Toussaint

1009
00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:37,360
Speaker 3: Levity or Dusalen.

1010
00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:40,520
Speaker 6: There was like two characters that was very influential on

1011
00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:43,279
Speaker 6: the Haitian Revolution. The Haitian Revolution was one of the

1012
00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:45,600
Speaker 6: most profound revolutions in the history of the world, only

1013
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:48,279
Speaker 6: because it was the first time black people gain their

1014
00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:51,560
Speaker 6: independence on paper, you know. And it was a small

1015
00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:55,799
Speaker 6: little army that destroyed Napoleon Bonaparte's army, who was known

1016
00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:57,560
Speaker 6: to be like the best war general at the time.

1017
00:39:57,640 --> 00:39:59,719
Speaker 6: So I think it'll be fire to like be a

1018
00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:02,640
Speaker 6: kind in that story. Like that's like a real Marvel

1019
00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:05,440
Speaker 6: superhero to black people, you know, Like they created their

1020
00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:07,440
Speaker 6: own language, which is the language that I speak fluently,

1021
00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:09,960
Speaker 6: which is Creole, which is seventy five percent French, and

1022
00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:12,480
Speaker 6: like different languages, and they switched it up just so

1023
00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:14,279
Speaker 6: when they're fighting when it was in the war, like

1024
00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:17,160
Speaker 6: the French people can't really understand, but we can understand French,

1025
00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:19,239
Speaker 6: you know. So it's kind of fire. And I think

1026
00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:21,920
Speaker 6: that story is like dope A's hell, and that's one

1027
00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:24,000
Speaker 6: of the things that don't ever get talked about. I

1028
00:40:24,040 --> 00:40:25,400
Speaker 6: would love to play a character like that.

1029
00:40:25,480 --> 00:40:27,279
Speaker 4: I mean, that's why they punished in Haiti to this day.

1030
