25
00:01:50,600 --> 00:02:01,800
Speaker 1: how'm talking about, what only to say inevitable camera. Yeah,

26
00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:07,320
Speaker 1: for the record, we're coming off this oscars, right, I

27
00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 1: just want to stay off top. I'm scared of world Smith, like,

28
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:14,160
Speaker 1: you don't vote for them, right. I've met Will a

29
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 1: few times. I've I've never met Chris Rock. Okay, okay,

30
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 1: Well one time I met Chris Rock talk. It was

31
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,520
Speaker 1: in the party and if I'm talking and sayd hey, Chris,

32
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,480
Speaker 1: you no take a picture? And Chris is like, what

33
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:30,959
Speaker 1: is the world going to? The um? I want the

34
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:32,840
Speaker 1: picture with Noriega and Chris Rock. And I was like,

35
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 1: I couldn't tell that. First of all, it wasn't funny.

36
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 1: That wasn't funny to me. And then I was like,

37
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 1: and I started to think about it that comedians don't

38
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,600
Speaker 1: know how to turn off being So what did you see?

39
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:45,600
Speaker 1: What did you see when when you first saw that?

40
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:47,600
Speaker 1: Where was you at? What what was you saying to yourself?

41
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:54,919
Speaker 1: I saw I saw a man fat up. I saw

42
00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:57,760
Speaker 1: a man feed up. You know what I mean? I

43
00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 1: think when we when we look at Will, we we

44
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:06,040
Speaker 1: want to paint this perfect picture because to us, you know,

45
00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:09,680
Speaker 1: he is a king. He is that standard, that bob,

46
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 1: and so we we we great him on a very

47
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 1: high scale. Will is not allowed to make mistakes, he's

48
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:19,160
Speaker 1: not allowed to have bad days. He's not a lot

49
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:22,920
Speaker 1: of it's a lot of pressure. And then I see

50
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:28,560
Speaker 1: the wife, you know, who's been enduring, you know, enduring

51
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 1: for the last however long, and I just saw a

52
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:38,400
Speaker 1: breaking point. And the joke probably wasn't the worst joke

53
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:42,920
Speaker 1: that's been said. We've seen some crazier jokes. But sometimes

54
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:46,400
Speaker 1: it's just the straw that breaks the camels. Question under

55
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:49,000
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Like, weird at a breaking point. So

56
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 1: even this straw right here, it may not be all

57
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 1: about you, but this little straw that you just put

58
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:57,360
Speaker 1: on that camel's back, it was enough to send me.

59
00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:01,320
Speaker 1: Now was he wrong? I don't know, I don't know.

60
00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 1: I want your opinion. I just up listen. Yes he

61
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 1: was wrong, undoubtably a full chest wrong. Now here's what

62
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 1: you do know, sometimes you have to go there to

63
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 1: let people know that you will. Yeah, I equated to

64
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,800
Speaker 1: talking to shot earlier. I equated to being on the

65
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:41,960
Speaker 1: basketball court. Right. There are fouls, and there are technical fouls, right,

66
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,120
Speaker 1: and so at a certain point in the game, when

67
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:48,280
Speaker 1: you're trying to send a message to the other team,

68
00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:51,479
Speaker 1: you may say, you know what, for the sake of

69
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 1: the energy moving forward, I need to not issue a

70
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:59,200
Speaker 1: regular fiul. I need to issue a technical foul. So

71
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,279
Speaker 1: you mother fuckers. No, I will go there if I

72
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:04,640
Speaker 1: have to. Because I felt him when he said keep

73
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:09,559
Speaker 1: my wife's name, I'll keep motherfucking mouth. That's I said.

74
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:12,520
Speaker 1: I was immediately scared of the person who made parents

75
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:16,799
Speaker 1: don't understand. You don't mess with said, I've been judged.

76
00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:19,960
Speaker 1: I missed judge this for years. Leave a man, leave

77
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:24,960
Speaker 1: a man's money alone, leave a man's kids alone, leave

78
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:29,200
Speaker 1: a man's food alone, and by God, leave a man's

79
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:35,400
Speaker 1: wife alone. Just like that, Just because the last time

80
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:37,160
Speaker 1: act like this is the first time a comedian has

81
00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 1: been ran up on, not just magnitude though, I got it. Yeah,

82
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:43,960
Speaker 1: but this is commonplace. You can look in the crowd.

83
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 1: I do comedy. You can look at the crowd and

84
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:50,720
Speaker 1: tell I shouldn't talk about him because he's already giving

85
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:52,960
Speaker 1: me the place, like, don't bring that ship over here

86
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:56,400
Speaker 1: like I'm enjoying myself. But I will. I will do that.

87
00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Comedians so this, I don't

88
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:04,640
Speaker 1: think anybody could have anticipated that. But because he didn't smack,

89
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 1: he smacked the internet. He smacked the means all the

90
00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:11,560
Speaker 1: jokes that did be said every time Tupac is bored up,

91
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:13,720
Speaker 1: they'd be saying, it's like some funny ship. He's tired

92
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 1: of that. He smacked. It's like a pressure, just like

93
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:21,040
Speaker 1: that's what it was. Fed up. Will has the size

94
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 1: he has to reach. Have you seen Chris thought about that?

95
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,520
Speaker 1: Chris say, man, let me just let it go. That's

96
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:33,719
Speaker 1: the disappointed. If I walk up on you and swing

97
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:37,760
Speaker 1: on you, I know it's something coming behind that we're

98
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:42,039
Speaker 1: going to wrestle fight this thing out. I needed Chris Rock.

99
00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:48,960
Speaker 1: I needed him to just give me so good. He's

100
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:57,720
Speaker 1: taking like a taking like a let me tell you something.

101
00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 1: He took it like a g let me tell you something.

102
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,080
Speaker 1: When they say when they say, I'm saying, it could

103
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:05,080
Speaker 1: have gone crazy, it could have gone crazy, but let

104
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:07,400
Speaker 1: me just like it's supposed to. At that moment, it

105
00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:09,400
Speaker 1: felt like the Sauce Awards. It doesn't even be like

106
00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:15,080
Speaker 1: you right when you smack me automatic. That's another part

107
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:18,960
Speaker 1: I forgot. He didn't want him. He's the ultimate, but

108
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:20,840
Speaker 1: I think the smack is worse in the punch. You're

109
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:27,880
Speaker 1: treated me like I got penny holes on, like coming hard? No,

110
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:40,880
Speaker 1: what is this? Like? I can't That was because it's

111
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 1: Oscars and the truth. Let me just tell you something.

112
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:46,400
Speaker 1: I've never been in the Oscars. I've never I'm just

113
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 1: I just I felt like it's there awards show, right.

114
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:53,120
Speaker 1: I always felt like that this you know more is

115
00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 1: boycotting that, but I always felt like it was their

116
00:07:55,120 --> 00:08:01,440
Speaker 1: award show. But they had my man producing it. Um Wacker, Yeah,

117

Speaker 1: gradual we're working on it. Oh, we're gonna get to it.

153
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:23,280
Speaker 1: Not gonna work because music is ever changing. As we

154
00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:25,400
Speaker 1: see now that these platforms have come in, all these

155
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:27,959
Speaker 1: new platforms that have come into place to help monetize

156
00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:31,800
Speaker 1: music more and give more visibility to certain kinds of artists,

157
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:38,320
Speaker 1: the landscape is completely different. And you have a format

158
00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:42,800
Speaker 1: that is catered to traditional to traditional music or the

159
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:46,200
Speaker 1: traditional style of judging music, you can't do that no more.

160
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:51,000
Speaker 1: You just can't, like case in point, like when oz

161
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 1: was going crazy. Of course, if you don't, if you're

162
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:01,840
Speaker 1: not in the festivals, if you're not tapping into that

163
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:04,680
Speaker 1: place where that music is played, you don't know how

164
00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,480
Speaker 1: massive that kid is you don't know to put him

165
00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:10,600
Speaker 1: in the top rap categories at your Grammys because you

166
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:13,240
Speaker 1: don't know. Everything you're doing is still done in a

167
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:18,120
Speaker 1: traditional space, different metrics. So it has to change, and

168
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:22,360
Speaker 1: people who understand the new metrics have to be integrated

169
00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:25,680
Speaker 1: into the Grammys or they're gonna or they're gonna lose

170
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:29,760
Speaker 1: touch with everybody. They're gonna lose touch with everybody, and

171
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:35,560
Speaker 1: these things have to be televised. Like I argue this, UM,

172
00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:40,760
Speaker 1: shout out to hear those guys. I love everybody. Um,

173
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:43,120
Speaker 1: you know, shout out to BT, shoutout to Soul training,

174
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:45,680
Speaker 1: all these guys. But accused me that the R and

175
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:54,199
Speaker 1: B best R and B category is not televised. Why

176
00:11:54,200 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 1: why why can't we Why can't I love be seen? Huh,

177
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:03,880
Speaker 1: sexuality be saying that's crazy. I didn't even that. I

178
00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 1: don't want to hurt nobody, nobody. You know what I'm saying.

179
00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 1: My songs are you know, your phones are different. You

180
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:16,040
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. But yet, and not against hip hop,

181
00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:18,720
Speaker 1: you have more of a platform to say and do

182
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:20,440
Speaker 1: the things you need to do versus me. I'm just

183
00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:26,520
Speaker 1: selling love. But I digress. So I think the format

184
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:28,760
Speaker 1: needs to be adjusted. In the way you adjust that

185
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:33,680
Speaker 1: format is by integrating people who know what the fund

186
00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:37,440
Speaker 1: is going on right now, right like we like we're

187
00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:41,160
Speaker 1: supposed to be at the the championship of that, Like

188
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:43,520
Speaker 1: when these these awards and things like that, it's supposed

189
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:44,719
Speaker 1: to be some of us in the room. Is that

190
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:48,800
Speaker 1: what you're intended? Absolutely? Yeah, in the room and listen.

191
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:53,080
Speaker 1: It can't be everybody can't be over thirty. Everybody can't

192
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:58,760
Speaker 1: be over forded. Okay, but a sixty five year old listen,

193
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:00,600
Speaker 1: I don't care how long I don't already trying to

194
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:05,200
Speaker 1: hang on. He should not be voting in just shouldn't

195
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:08,560
Speaker 1: be doing it right the pop category. He should listn't.

196
00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:12,080
Speaker 1: If he want to vote on smooth jazz, let let

197
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:16,040
Speaker 1: him do that. But there has to be changed, and

198
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:19,160
Speaker 1: the integration has to happen now or you're gonna lose

199
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:21,560
Speaker 1: touch with the culture R and B and hip hop

200
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:24,200
Speaker 1: for that matter. Let me let me ask you changing

201
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:25,959
Speaker 1: it up a little bit. One thing I can hear

202
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:27,360
Speaker 1: from you, like I could. I can hear when I'm

203
00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:29,760
Speaker 1: listening to your music, I could tell you was raising

204
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:33,760
Speaker 1: the church boy. Are you absolutely like it? Says that,

205
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:37,080
Speaker 1: and I know that's we're real singers. It always it

206
00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:39,960
Speaker 1: starts out like that. How do you feel I'm switching

207
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:41,560
Speaker 1: it up a little bit? How do you feel about

208
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:43,840
Speaker 1: people who don't go to that, people who just take

209
00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:46,520
Speaker 1: the easy route out and go order tune and then

210
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:49,400
Speaker 1: they can't even perform live because they're really not they

211
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:53,160
Speaker 1: can't sing at all. I love it. I did not

212
00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:56,120
Speaker 1: expect that. I love it. It's a place for all

213
00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:59,880
Speaker 1: of its love. Because listen, there are R and B R,

214
00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:04,360
Speaker 1: and there are R and B singers. There's a difference.

215
00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 1: I need them so that the highlight of what I

216
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 1: do is personified even more. You're gonna get some of that.

217
00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:18,960
Speaker 1: You canna have playtime over there, you know what I'm saying,

218
00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:21,720
Speaker 1: and enjoy them. Tune the lyrics in Maryland, I I

219
00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:24,040
Speaker 1: turned the tune on. Sometimes I turned it on to

220
00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:27,600
Speaker 1: the aesthetic for the sound, tap into the youth. But

221
00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:30,000
Speaker 1: when you want to hear a real singer, when you

222
00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 1: want your soul touched, you know what I'm saying. When

223
00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:34,360
Speaker 1: you when you when ladies, when you want your inner

224
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:43,200
Speaker 1: secretions to flow in section, I don't want to after

225
00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:47,920
Speaker 1: that mean, I know what it means. Then you come

226
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:53,440
Speaker 1: see R B singer. And again I always, I always

227
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:55,960
Speaker 1: try to speak to the equality of a thing. If

228
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:58,920
Speaker 1: you're gonna give the guys with the auto tune all

229
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:02,760
Speaker 1: the mainstream look, then give the vocal listen real singers

230
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:06,320
Speaker 1: some mainstream looks as well. We're asking let make some

231
00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:15,360
Speaker 1: that would be the equivalent of lyricists m c s.

232
00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 1: And some that aren't. But they make dope music. They

233
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:20,440
Speaker 1: make dope music. Some some rappers are stylists, you know

234
00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:22,120
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, where it's like a voice you just

235
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:24,600
Speaker 1: can't deny, you know what I'm saying. Some rappers are

236
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:27,320
Speaker 1: good at making songs. The hook is fired the body

237
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:30,040
Speaker 1: of the so so maybe a few lines. And then

238
00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:34,040
Speaker 1: some are just flat out lyricists to where there are bars,

239
00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:37,640
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. That they're just undefeated. So

240
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:41,720
Speaker 1: it's room for all of it. I just want us

241
00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:44,160
Speaker 1: to be able to I'm an R and B singer. Man,

242
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:52,400
Speaker 1: let me eat too, Let me with my big right right?

243
00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:57,840
Speaker 1: Are you drinking beer? Is that pace efical? Yeah? He

244
00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 1: might be met Say so when I googled you it,

245
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:23,880
Speaker 1: say so. When I doled you seen you will see

246
00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:28,480
Speaker 1: slack for performing at a Black gay pride event. Yeah,

247
00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:33,560
Speaker 1: why would you see slack for that? You you tell me,

248
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:39,040
Speaker 1: I'm asking you. He saw your tweet. You know, I

249
00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:41,840
Speaker 1: think it's I think it's just a disconnect. I'm not

250
00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:44,080
Speaker 1: gonna understand that, you know what I mean. I think

251
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:46,840
Speaker 1: I'm gonna speak. You know, in terms of the Black community,

252
00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:51,600
Speaker 1: there's a there's a stigma, and there's there's there's a

253
00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:55,640
Speaker 1: hate that goes along with being gay, right right, And

254
00:16:55,720 --> 00:17:00,440
Speaker 1: oftentimes in our language, to even um to I mean

255
00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:04,400
Speaker 1: the greater person to the lowest, we can degrade them.

256
00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:09,919
Speaker 1: We use gay. It's the adjective. And so that carries

257
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:13,480
Speaker 1: on even into entertainment. So paint the picture for you.

258
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:17,280
Speaker 1: Guy Brian who used to manage your fantasia, who's a

259
00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:20,879
Speaker 1: gay man, who's my friend. He said, hey, man, what

260
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:22,720
Speaker 1: do you think about performing a gay pride in d C?

261
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:26,640
Speaker 1: I said, yeah, well we kind I'm from DC. Yeah,

262
00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:28,920
Speaker 1: I said, I said, ship, we're kind of back. The

263
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:32,280
Speaker 1: guy he said, they got this kind of bag. I'm

264
00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:38,560
Speaker 1: all the way right. And so we we get in

265
00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:42,800
Speaker 1: there and and the first thing you say, are you

266
00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:46,840
Speaker 1: gonna take your shirt off? And I said, you called me,

267
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:52,160
Speaker 1: I'll do what I do. I do a thing I'm

268
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:55,000
Speaker 1: not scared of im. I's not gonna rub off on

269
00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:57,720
Speaker 1: me because I had to do my show right. So

270
00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:01,560
Speaker 1: I go out there and I'm doing the first song right,

271
00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 1: and as I'm singing my first song, I just kind

272
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:07,000
Speaker 1: of noticed I'm scanning the crowd. You know, they don't

273
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:08,879
Speaker 1: know how to receive me at this time. I'm not

274
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:13,440
Speaker 1: knowing I'm the first straight mail artists to ever do it.

275
00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:15,960
Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm not. I'm not knowing the energy and

276
00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:18,399
Speaker 1: my understanding why all these questions are, you know, surrounding this.

277
00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:21,159
Speaker 1: So I get out there and you know, I finished

278
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:24,520
Speaker 1: my first song and the explosions going out bad bad.

279
00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:29,960
Speaker 1: They're like, all right, don't like this, y'all trying to

280
00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:36,639
Speaker 1: masculinity and saying the sisters don't turn out now. I

281
00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:41,760
Speaker 1: came to see you all and they said yeah. And

282
00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:46,800
Speaker 1: it was at that moment that they understood, like, I

283
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:50,160
Speaker 1: have no judgment for you in your lifestyle. I only

284
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:53,400
Speaker 1: have love for you as a human being. You also

285
00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:56,399
Speaker 1: are the reason why I'm able to feed my family,

286
00:18:56,960 --> 00:18:59,240
Speaker 1: So I love you for that and I'm gonna I'm

287
00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:02,160
Speaker 1: gonna entertain. Ain't the same way I would entertain on

288
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,080
Speaker 1: any stage, whether it's a bunch of girls in the

289
00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:05,760
Speaker 1: front row a bunch of guys in the front room.

290
00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:10,280
Speaker 1: I'm securing my ship. I'm secure. I don't feel like

291
00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:11,680
Speaker 1: I'm gonna walk into a game room and all of

292
00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:16,160
Speaker 1: something become gay. Right, And so when the backlash comes

293
00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:17,879
Speaker 1: and people are saying, oh, he must be gay, I

294
00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:19,959
Speaker 1: can laugh at that because that's not the worst thing

295
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:22,919
Speaker 1: you can call me, right, because I don't see it

296
00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:26,840
Speaker 1: is that. So I just did Pride in Dallas. Where's

297
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:32,920
Speaker 1: the bag? As I got fans there? Do they got

298
00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:37,080
Speaker 1: the bag? I'm on the way. You sure you want

299
00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:38,520
Speaker 1: to take picture? You goddamn r I don't want to

300
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:41,359
Speaker 1: take pictures, and ain't really if it ain't photographs, they

301
00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:45,159
Speaker 1: don't hit the ground there in full support. So and

302
00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:46,840
Speaker 1: I told him, I said, once we get out of

303
00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:50,360
Speaker 1: once we get out of this hate space and are

304
00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:52,879
Speaker 1: willing to have a real sit down and try to

305
00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:56,280
Speaker 1: understand each other and do it in love, it's always

306
00:19:56,280 --> 00:20:00,639
Speaker 1: gonna be this barrier between so many things. So for me,

307
00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:02,760
Speaker 1: I leave with love. Man, I don't care what it

308
00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:06,359
Speaker 1: is like. We had Jason Lee on here um and

309
00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:08,320
Speaker 1: I had to ask him the question that we asked

310
00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:10,240
Speaker 1: everyone else. You know what I mean, because if not,

311
00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:12,720
Speaker 1: wouldn't have been that. You know what the question is,

312
00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:20,679
Speaker 1: does he eat? Ask? Wow, you want to go? Just

313
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:26,199
Speaker 1: talk to me. Brother. I'm here on the club. I

314
00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:31,919
Speaker 1: hate the same Jason Lee's a whole different kind of ass,

315
00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:42,359
Speaker 1: remember I mean Harry answer, He's right, but the club,

316
00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:45,160
Speaker 1: so obviously you say you do eat as just be clear,

317
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:55,080
Speaker 1: woman's asked, woman's woman. I just want to keep this clear.

318
00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:59,200
Speaker 1: They're gonna try to find a way. So we also

319
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:03,600
Speaker 1: had Trick Daddy on here, and Trick Daddy said he

320
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:09,600
Speaker 1: not only he enjoys being an ass, eat a booty gang,

321
00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:12,720
Speaker 1: eat the moody and I he said, he got legs

322
00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:17,600
Speaker 1: up and everything. I said, No, no legs up, he said,

323
00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:26,119
Speaker 1: and he asked you to. But Trick, Trick Daddy is

324
00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:32,960
Speaker 1: the president, and we are members in this cart not

325
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:37,080
Speaker 1: always legs up. We don't always. You know what I

326
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:39,800
Speaker 1: was gonna be that compromise up a little bit. You

00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:31,359
Speaker 1: He toned that down, you know what I'm saying. You know,

335
00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:34,959
Speaker 1: but the first time it did happen to me, I was,

336
00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:36,760
Speaker 1: you know what, I don't know why I'm doing this.

361
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:36,199
Speaker 1: the time fire. Thank you brother. So let me ask you.

362
00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:39,000
Speaker 1: Moving around, We're gonna get back to the later, you

363
00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:43,600
Speaker 1: know anything, So what do you what do you? What

364
00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:48,040
Speaker 1: do you still love about this game? It's that's changed

365
00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:53,720
Speaker 1: for me. Um before what I loved about this game

366
00:24:53,880 --> 00:25:00,399
Speaker 1: was everything that I had to offer, very selfish about

367
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:02,040
Speaker 1: the way I was gonna sing to him, about the

368
00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:03,879
Speaker 1: way I was going to perform, by the way I

369
00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:06,280
Speaker 1: was going to write it and produce it and deliver

370
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:09,760
Speaker 1: it me how I'm going to do it right. Every

371
00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:11,919
Speaker 1: every show, every time I wake up, I'm about to

372
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:17,520
Speaker 1: kill these I'm like kill him right. And now it's

373
00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:25,520
Speaker 1: I can't wait to build up this next singer songwriter

374
00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:29,879
Speaker 1: producer so that they can go kill on R and

375
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:33,199
Speaker 1: B's behalf. I can't wait to give everything that I

376
00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:40,840
Speaker 1: have to somebody else. That's what drives me now, because like,

377
00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:42,840
Speaker 1: what good is the game if it? If it dies

378
00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:47,480
Speaker 1: with me? You have to right and that, and that's

379
00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:51,479
Speaker 1: how you truly truly build. That's how you truly create

380
00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:56,960
Speaker 1: a legacy when your arms extend as far as humanly possible.

381
00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:01,040
Speaker 1: Right if an artist thirty years down the line says

382
00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:03,520
Speaker 1: all of this was made possible because one day Tank

383
00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:05,240
Speaker 1: gave me a call and said, I believe in you,

384
00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:08,960
Speaker 1: and we're going to make something great happen. I've done

385
00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:13,360
Speaker 1: my job. I've done my job because that that's my

386
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:18,679
Speaker 1: true gift. My true gift is championing and supporting and

387
00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:21,480
Speaker 1: putting the battery. You can do it. I used to

388
00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:24,679
Speaker 1: have a kid, uh that used to sing backgrounds with

389
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:29,640
Speaker 1: me my name and Luke James right, and and Luke

390
00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:31,439
Speaker 1: James just also live well, so you can live with me.

391
00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:33,080
Speaker 1: Man A said, first of all, you need to be

392
00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:35,119
Speaker 1: writing songs. You need to be doing all this stuff

393
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:36,720
Speaker 1: like this is what you need to be doing. It's

394
00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:38,560
Speaker 1: the first song he wrote was on my albums. That

395
00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:41,920
Speaker 1: club and pain Right brought him in and we're singing back,

396
00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:43,879
Speaker 1: We're singing. He's on the road singing backgrounds with men.

397
00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:45,720
Speaker 1: I got my guys standing back there doing that thing.

398
00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:48,480
Speaker 1: And one day we're at the house. You're singing, going

399
00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:51,719
Speaker 1: back and forth, you know, sharpening the tools, and he

402
00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:02,119
Speaker 1: we're gonna do. We're gonna go on my stage and

403
00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:03,879
Speaker 1: I'm gonna call you out and I'm gonna say if

404
00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:08,399
Speaker 1: Maxwell was here, what would he do? That kid? And

405
00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:11,560
Speaker 1: then I want you to go crazy? And this kid

406
00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:15,560
Speaker 1: stood at the front of my stage and almost took

407
00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:21,480
Speaker 1: over my entire show every night. I had to fight

408
00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:26,880
Speaker 1: to get my show back little James every night. But

409
00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:30,240
Speaker 1: I wanted him to do that. I wanted them to

410
00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:33,240
Speaker 1: scream and go crazy every time he touched that microphone.

411
00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:37,879
Speaker 1: Now he's a little James believed in that kid still,

412
00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:40,800

414
00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:48,879
Speaker 1: Genuine m hmm, genuine. That was my next question. I

415
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:56,280

Speaker 1: is still in the music. You know what I'm saying.

421
00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:14,840

00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:17,680
Speaker 1: like a one man Joe to see what you need

455
00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:19,480
Speaker 1: to do, like you gotta wear this, and then then

456
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:21,680
Speaker 1: then you got the you got the song, focus on

457
00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:23,160
Speaker 1: the piano, but you need to throw some of that

458
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:25,000
Speaker 1: edge like she was just just game me gave me

459
00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:27,400
Speaker 1: and Ginuine would sit sit with me at the top

460
00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:29,600
Speaker 1: of a theater, sold out theater, right and he was

461
00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:31,280
Speaker 1: standing there. He would watch his picture line and to

462
00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:34,680
Speaker 1: be a thousand girls in the picture line literally and

463
00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:36,080
Speaker 1: he would say, dog, I'm gonna take every one of

464
00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:37,720
Speaker 1: these picture dogs. That's what you gotta do. You wanna

465
00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:39,720
Speaker 1: be a style. You got to keep a die. If

466
00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:41,880
Speaker 1: the last one of them dig I'm gonna touch him all.

467
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:45,560
Speaker 1: If last one of the last one of them, dog dog.

468
00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:49,760
Speaker 1: And I would watch him do this every night, left

469
00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:53,520
Speaker 1: no fan behind every night. This is what you gotta do,

470
00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:55,360
Speaker 1: taking things and you're writing songs. And then I got

471
00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:58,240
Speaker 1: to meet my favorite producer, Timberland, and me and Timberland

472
00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:02,280
Speaker 1: on the bus with my PVDPM keyboard making beats together

473
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:04,920
Speaker 1: and he's like, take you talent, you got the sauce,

474
00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:06,240
Speaker 1: but you gotta do is you gotta do this. You

475
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:08,360
Speaker 1: gotta do this, all these guys gaming me, gaming me,

476
00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:10,760
Speaker 1: gaming me, and then Ginuine did what gave me the

477
00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:15,200
Speaker 1: front of his stage. Go crazy, little brow. You talk

478
00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:21,240
Speaker 1: about you talk about the leftovers. Amen, Yeah, yeah, yeah,

479
00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:26,800
Speaker 1: I'm the coldest wingman in history, in history. I carried

480
00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:29,200
Speaker 1: the foot locker bags. You know what I'm saying. I

481
00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:31,880
Speaker 1: carried the oak tree bags. I would be in the

482
00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:35,120
Speaker 1: middle of the mall buying the silver jewelry. You know

483
00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:38,160
Speaker 1: the sound I'm saying, the sterling silver sock to fit

484
00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:41,480
Speaker 1: in with Genuine. His wing men wouldn't look so crazy.

485
00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:43,840
Speaker 1: And when Genuine went out and he needed that wing

486
00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:51,280
Speaker 1: we got supers there. I'm staring. I'm starine head. We

487
00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:52,920
Speaker 1: got him out. You would have going on the power

488
00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:58,800
Speaker 1: of a laminate the r late with the wine, Oh

489
00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:02,280
Speaker 1: my god, with Genuine. We'd love to go see him.

490
00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:05,560
Speaker 1: I would love for you to see him. You got

491
00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:13,440
Speaker 1: any friends, You got any friends? So that's that's Genuine.

492
00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:15,600
Speaker 1: Let's let's cross over in the t G T. Let's

493
00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:20,280
Speaker 1: do it. Let's get into that. What then happened? Man,

494
00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:24,479
Speaker 1: I'm gonna blame all of us, you said all of us,

495
00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:27,720
Speaker 1: all of us, as I put most of the blame

496
00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:32,280
Speaker 1: on Tyrese, and then and then some more and now

497
00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:34,600
Speaker 1: some of the blame on Genuine, and then I'll get

498
00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:37,400
Speaker 1: back to myself. I gotta you know, I'm I'm here

499
00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:40,920
Speaker 1: with you. Never make myself look better than those guys.

500
00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:46,160
Speaker 1: This is just the true Okay, okay, Um. What happened

501
00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:49,760
Speaker 1: the first time around is we fought to make that album.

502
00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:53,880
Speaker 1: It was a hell of a process. Yeah no, no,

503
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:57,760
Speaker 1: no's like literally like the only thing that kept me

504
00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:01,160
Speaker 1: from fighting Ti Reese, like you know what I'm saying,

505
00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:03,320
Speaker 1: like really like like slamming, slamming him on top of

506
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:06,440
Speaker 1: his head was it was that guy right there. Yeah,

507
00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:08,320
Speaker 1: my manager. He was like, you can't go over there

508
00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:12,719
Speaker 1: and fight. I said, why can't I can't. I can

509
00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:15,760
Speaker 1: go to his house. We can fight, get it off

510
00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:18,600
Speaker 1: our chest, and then make some more music. But you

511
00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:22,160
Speaker 1: are not gonna text me text me like like I'm

512
00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:26,600
Speaker 1: not a grown like Tyrese on the text chain. Oh oh,

513
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:30,840
Speaker 1: he greasy on the text shape. He'd go there on

514
00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:34,360
Speaker 1: the tech shape right and as soon as I say, cool,

515
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:37,600
Speaker 1: I'm coming to fuck you up. While we always want

516
00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:40,800
Speaker 1: to fight because all the fighting words. Okay, who's on

517
00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:43,640
Speaker 1: the text change though? Me? Genuine and tyrese. It's the

518
00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:48,240
Speaker 1: craziest check. And then you'll see I say, yea, I

519
00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:54,120
Speaker 1: shouldn't do this. That y'all better than this, said no,

520
00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:59,360
Speaker 1: I'm gonna him up absolutely um. But that was just

521
00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:02,960
Speaker 1: to Alpha Like me and Tie are both capitalcorns, and

522
00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:06,680
Speaker 1: we bumped heads every step of the way. I'm way first,

523
00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:10,800
Speaker 1: he's he's the December thirty one. We bumped heads every

524
00:34:11,120 --> 00:34:14,600
Speaker 1: step of the way. That's my brother, so I can

525
00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:16,919
Speaker 1: I can say, I can talk about anybody else talking

526
00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:20,040
Speaker 1: about um. And I just felt like he was doing

527
00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:22,160
Speaker 1: too much. Why I was mad? He knows this. I

528
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:26,560
Speaker 1: was mad. I was like, listen, I make albums. I

529
00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:32,000
Speaker 1: make bodies of work. I have classic albums. I am

530
00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:35,600
Speaker 1: still doing this ship at a high level. To let

531
00:34:35,719 --> 00:34:40,480
Speaker 1: me handle the music. Your cash. As the biggest star

532
00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:44,080
Speaker 1: in our group, I will give way to you handling

533
00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:49,160
Speaker 1: the business. Use that Tyree's blockbuster billion dollar box office

534
00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:53,279
Speaker 1: cache to get us the best deal imaginable, all the

535
00:34:53,360 --> 00:35:02,640
Speaker 1: fast and furiousness. Rightious, He's furious, come furious, but let

536
00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:05,680
Speaker 1: me handle this music. This is what the funk I do.

537
00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:09,520
Speaker 1: And he wouldn't get out of my way, kept stepping

538
00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:13,000
Speaker 1: on my toes. He likes to do boot camps. I

539
00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:15,600
Speaker 1: like to lock in with two or two or three producers,

540
00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:19,880
Speaker 1: a couple of writers and make magic. People like a

541
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:24,600
Speaker 1: thousand producers and writers making I don't. I just don't

542
00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:26,920
Speaker 1: make music like that. I'm from the Jimmy Jam and

543
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:31,200
Speaker 1: Terry Lewis from Teddy Riley, from the Timberland, the Doctor Dre.

544
00:35:31,520 --> 00:35:34,040
Speaker 1: I'm from those schools where we lock in and we

545
00:35:34,239 --> 00:35:36,600
Speaker 1: find it and we make magic. That's what I'm from.

546
00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:40,040
Speaker 1: But but his process is not wrong, just not my process.

547
00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:44,640
Speaker 1: So our arguments and our beef was more so men

548
00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:48,520
Speaker 1: who have been successful trying to figure out a way

549
00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:52,040
Speaker 1: being successful individually trying to figure out a way to

550
00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:55,799
Speaker 1: be successful together, right, And so neither one of us

551
00:35:56,320 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 1: wanted to bow down to either person's process. Your process,

552
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:01,799
Speaker 1: it's not better than mind. Your process is not better

553
00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:04,400
Speaker 1: than mine. Well, then here we are, and that's what

554
00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:09,160
Speaker 1: made it difficult. Finally get the album done. Over time,

555
00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:14,800
Speaker 1: album finally comes out, we do some shows overseas, I

556
00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:17,120
Speaker 1: think seven shows overseas. We do like three shows in

557
00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:20,040
Speaker 1: the US, and again we have a movie start in

558
00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:22,000
Speaker 1: the group. He gets called away to do a movie

559
00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:25,000
Speaker 1: which we couldn't control because you know what, Paul passed

560
00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:29,120
Speaker 1: and got rest his soul um it from a scheduling standpoint,

561
00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:32,560
Speaker 1: it got crazy for for Tie and everybody that was

562
00:36:32,600 --> 00:36:36,160
Speaker 1: a part of the franchise, And so when that responsibility called,

563
00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:38,520
Speaker 1: he had to answer, and so that threw us off

564
00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:43,120
Speaker 1: on the first one. Getting into this second one looks

565
00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:45,400
Speaker 1: like you're passionate about this one. Yeah, yeah, I'm passionate

566
00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:47,000
Speaker 1: about this one. I want to say this so that

567
00:36:47,160 --> 00:36:51,680
Speaker 1: everybody can get on their ass right. T g T

568
00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:54,960
Speaker 1: the second time around is bigger than music. Bigger than

569
00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:57,160
Speaker 1: music in terms of it as it relates to us.

570
00:36:58,000 --> 00:36:59,960
Speaker 1: It's for the It's for the R and B universe

571
00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:05,440
Speaker 1: as a collective and for kings as a collective to

572
00:37:05,480 --> 00:37:08,399
Speaker 1: see the Kings can come together and do real ship,

573
00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:12,640
Speaker 1: creating a blue merin what what what I think is

574
00:37:12,680 --> 00:37:17,440
Speaker 1: happening right now is as stressful as that process was.

575
00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:24,840
Speaker 1: Nobody feels like they have to inconvenience themselves anymore to

576
00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:27,759
Speaker 1: do it, and I blame that on people being rich.

577
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:35,440
Speaker 1: Is rich? Genuine is rich? Do they need t g T. No,

578
00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:40,480
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter to them what the fans needed. But

579
00:37:41,480 --> 00:37:48,200
Speaker 1: the R and B universe needs t g T. For

580
00:37:48,360 --> 00:37:52,600
Speaker 1: the love of what we are, for the legacy of

581
00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:55,840
Speaker 1: what we're building. That's what t g T is about.

582
00:37:56,760 --> 00:37:58,359
Speaker 1: This is my last album, but t g T would

583
00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:01,080
Speaker 1: be my absolute last album if we did that right,

584
00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:06,080
Speaker 1: because the people who are watching us, what is the message?

585
00:38:07,480 --> 00:38:11,360
Speaker 1: What is the message we send? After one album? Arguments

586
00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:17,319
Speaker 1: online and nothing after what did we do? We heard

587
00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:21,080
Speaker 1: ourselves more than we helped ourselves. We believe that with

588
00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:24,080
Speaker 1: all this ship after the fact, I mean, people may

589
00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:26,160
Speaker 1: be able to separate the music from the foodsgenes that

590
00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:28,120
Speaker 1: we went through. I respect it. It was one of

591
00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:30,439
Speaker 1: the greatest R and B albums ever created. I will

592
00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:35,640
Speaker 1: say that. But we gotta finish right. We gotta finish right, man,

593
00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:39,560
Speaker 1: all the way down to the wire. It's fourth quarter,

594
00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:44,520
Speaker 1: last three minutes left. What are we doing? So that's

595
00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:47,719
Speaker 1: where I'm at? Right, can give me some more You

596
00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:52,080
Speaker 1: got it? S yeah, you send it to both of us,

597
00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:55,560
Speaker 1: asks just me, okay, I got it? Boom. You want

598
00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:58,960
Speaker 1: to play it on the rules? The rules are no

599
00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:03,600
Speaker 1: politically correct answers. Ship. If you say both or neither,

600
00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:07,239
Speaker 1: we all take a shot. So it's it's a it's

601
00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:10,160
Speaker 1: multiple or two. So we're gonna do this for two nights.

602
00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:14,200
Speaker 1: It's one. Are these shots? You say one? We're good?

603
00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:17,719
Speaker 1: Nobody drinks say both are neither. We're drinking. We drink

604
00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:19,600
Speaker 1: with you, don't drink by yourself. We drink with you. Yeah,

00:51:57,080 --> 00:51:59,680
Speaker 1: Let's just be clear you think you can see the

756
00:51:59,719 --> 00:52:02,960
Speaker 1: piano because this is this is weird. I'm not even

757
00:52:03,000 --> 00:52:04,840
Speaker 1: like I mean, at that point, you don't have to

758
00:52:04,880 --> 00:52:06,200
Speaker 1: see when you can say like that, I don't have

759
00:52:06,239 --> 00:52:09,480
Speaker 1: to see the real life. You think he can see though,

760
00:52:09,600 --> 00:52:13,520
Speaker 1: for real I think he can see sometimes, right, because

761
00:52:13,840 --> 00:52:18,040
Speaker 1: how you notice? I think that because other sentences, other

762
00:52:18,120 --> 00:52:21,439
Speaker 1: senses are so heightened, right, and be and being able

763
00:52:21,480 --> 00:52:25,120
Speaker 1: to understand the sensibility of shapes and sizes of things,

764
00:52:25,239 --> 00:52:29,760
Speaker 1: and and counting in the math of things, the ability

765
00:52:29,840 --> 00:52:32,680
Speaker 1: to visualize what's in front of you. It's possible to

766
00:52:32,880 --> 00:52:37,440
Speaker 1: see shades. It's possible to be able to from a

767
00:52:37,560 --> 00:52:40,879
Speaker 1: sonic standpoint. Right, You've seen Batman when they were using

768
00:52:40,920 --> 00:52:43,600
Speaker 1: the phones to pin uh pin uh what do they

769
00:52:43,640 --> 00:52:49,719
Speaker 1: called it, with the with the with the submarines, which

770
00:52:49,760 --> 00:52:53,960
Speaker 1: is right, And so there's an idea of sonar existing

771
00:52:54,040 --> 00:52:57,680
Speaker 1: within us, and so that will create the structure or

772
00:52:57,719 --> 00:53:00,680
Speaker 1: whatever space that you're in or whatever thing that you touch. Right,

773
00:53:01,160 --> 00:53:05,120
Speaker 1: possible can he see switch lanes? No, No, Stevie can

774
00:53:05,160 --> 00:53:09,719
Speaker 1: switch lanes. This is nothing, Shock said, Shock said, he

775
00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:13,840
Speaker 1: will were in the elevator. He didn't say that he

776
00:53:13,960 --> 00:53:16,319
Speaker 1: was in there. He just seek Stevie like they lived

777
00:53:16,320 --> 00:53:19,200
Speaker 1: in the same building and they both walked in and

778
00:53:19,520 --> 00:53:22,399
Speaker 1: Shock because he didn't want to say that, and Stevie said,

779
00:53:22,640 --> 00:53:27,120
Speaker 1: when Shaq walked out, all right later Diesel like he

780
00:53:27,280 --> 00:53:34,520
Speaker 1: was a pressing the button to it obviously, but this

781
00:53:34,640 --> 00:53:38,160
Speaker 1: is you can google it on line. U Sho accuses

782
00:53:38,360 --> 00:53:42,760
Speaker 1: that Stevie could actually see the way too. They figure

783
00:53:42,800 --> 00:53:48,120
Speaker 1: it's Stevie. He's been, he's been to professionally understand how

784
00:53:48,200 --> 00:53:52,640
Speaker 1: that works. That's true. Look, they just hit me with Stevie.

785
00:53:52,680 --> 00:53:55,680
Speaker 1: ONEA gave Darryl Dwkin his chocolate done the nickname. What

786
00:53:57,040 --> 00:54:01,400

Speaker 1: You really love new addition, love new addition. I was

807
00:55:49,920 --> 00:55:52,040
Speaker 1: raised on that album. My love for R and B

808
00:55:52,280 --> 00:55:56,799
Speaker 1: grew with any heartbreak, you know, going to that tour,

809
00:55:57,040 --> 00:56:00,040
Speaker 1: my my first concert, asking my father, please can you

810
00:56:00,160 --> 00:56:05,359
Speaker 1: take me to see a New Edition? We need a yes, Yes,

811
00:56:05,880 --> 00:56:09,040
Speaker 1: that's the blueprint for me. And then from New Edition

812
00:56:09,400 --> 00:56:13,080
Speaker 1: spawned every other group that you can think of at

813
00:56:13,120 --> 00:56:18,160
Speaker 1: this point, from the Instincts, the Whole Boyfriend before that,

814
00:56:20,320 --> 00:56:28,160
Speaker 1: really right after Jackson five, when did they come out

815
00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:32,359
Speaker 1: it seventies Yeah, I'm seventy seven, I'm seventy six. Yes,

816
00:56:32,760 --> 00:56:37,880
Speaker 1: So New Edition became the blueprint for every successful group thereafter.

817
00:56:38,880 --> 00:56:42,480
Speaker 1: The blueprint nothing different. This is how we're gonna rehearse.

818
00:56:42,960 --> 00:56:45,000
Speaker 1: So we're sing this is how we're gonna do it.

819
00:56:45,280 --> 00:56:48,759
Speaker 1: We need five the whole thing, the whole thing to

820
00:56:48,800 --> 00:56:51,440
Speaker 1: be able to do that. Yea. And they're the blueprint.

821
00:56:52,239 --> 00:56:57,600
Speaker 1: God damn, it makes a noise. New addition. So besides,

822
00:56:57,840 --> 00:57:00,680
Speaker 1: besides new edition, who else were you listening to? Really

823
00:57:00,760 --> 00:57:05,760
Speaker 1: young Jodac. I can see it, I can see it, Jodac.

824
00:57:05,920 --> 00:57:08,879
Speaker 1: Now that's a blueprint. Yeah. That was like the bad

825
00:57:08,960 --> 00:57:12,759
Speaker 1: Boys are someone's well, Bobby was the bad boy, and

826
00:57:12,840 --> 00:57:17,120
Speaker 1: then and then uh, and then the the three UM

829
00:57:23,720 --> 00:57:27,280
Speaker 1: a new edition but in a spawn off, but never

830
00:57:27,360 --> 00:57:30,520
Speaker 1: had been done before. They were the first, so they

831
00:57:30,600 --> 00:57:32,600
Speaker 1: had kind of an edge to them. If you want

832
00:57:32,600 --> 00:57:34,440
Speaker 1: to say that, you know what I'm saying. And then

833

Speaker 1: there's no addition you have Jodac my god, Yeah, we

834
00:57:43,800 --> 00:57:46,840

835
00:57:57,560 --> 00:57:58,840
Speaker 1: so that was my makeup. When I would go to

836
00:57:58,960 --> 00:58:01,240
Speaker 1: churches over you know, all over the d m V.

837
00:58:01,920 --> 00:58:04,360
Speaker 1: They'd be like, you sound like a gospel Jelasy, Like

838
00:58:04,560 --> 00:58:07,040
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, you sound like a gospel

841
00:58:30,000 --> 00:58:34,840
Speaker 1: I get it. Yeah, I get it. I understand. But

842
00:58:36,320 --> 00:58:44,000
Speaker 1: there's there's absolutely no way that now they are the guests, right,

843
00:58:45,280 --> 00:58:49,600
Speaker 1: There's absolutely no way that I can dig into my

844
00:58:50,360 --> 00:58:55,680
Speaker 1: musical DNA and strip away Joe to see and R.

845
00:58:55,760 --> 00:59:02,760
Speaker 1: Kelly and Brian mynight in baby Faces. It's absolutely impossible.

846
00:59:03,160 --> 00:59:07,680
Speaker 1: Everyone else is like, we get it, we understand, But like,

847
00:59:08,720 --> 00:59:14,040
Speaker 1: I still watched The Cosby Show, And how does it

848
00:59:14,120 --> 00:59:17,240
Speaker 1: make you feel when you watch it? Do you do

849
00:59:17,360 --> 00:59:19,600
Speaker 1: the lessons? Do you see Did you see the Bill

850
00:59:19,680 --> 00:59:23,520

851
00:59:23,560 --> 00:59:25,000
Speaker 1: We got to talk about that. It has the same

852
00:59:25,040 --> 00:59:28,160
Speaker 1: the documentary. I saw the Rob documentary, which scared me.

853
00:59:29,800 --> 00:59:35,280
Speaker 1: You scared me. Did you work with Kelly? Right? Indirectly?

854
00:59:36,280 --> 00:59:40,280
Speaker 1: I did a song for Sharissa that R. Kelly ended

855
00:59:40,360 --> 00:59:44,280
Speaker 1: up featuring on SO and I produced and wrote it

856
00:59:44,440 --> 00:59:47,600
Speaker 1: and I Kelly got on it and sang so. Indirectly,

857
00:59:47,880 --> 00:59:50,840
Speaker 1: UM hung out with him a couple of times. Play

858
00:59:50,920 --> 00:59:53,200
Speaker 1: some basketball. You want to hear that? Would like to

00:59:53,240 --> 00:59:57,600
Speaker 1: hear that? Kelly? There I'm gonna try to I'm gonna

860
00:59:57,600 --> 01:00:00,160
Speaker 1: try to make this short because it's it's three parts, right,

861
01:00:00,200 --> 01:00:05,440
Speaker 1: all right. So we're having a celebrity basketball game. Okay,

862
01:00:05,760 --> 01:00:07,320
Speaker 1: first time I meet Rob. Let's go back to that

863
01:00:08,840 --> 01:00:12,480
Speaker 1: first time I meet R Kelly was with Tyrese. We

864
01:00:12,560 --> 01:00:18,040
Speaker 1: call up, come outside because Tyrese's Tyres is the is

865
01:00:18,120 --> 01:00:21,360
Speaker 1: the fan club president of r K. Did not know

01:00:21,560 --> 01:00:27,080
Speaker 1: this fan club president him right now in jail number

867
01:00:32,040 --> 01:00:37,760
Speaker 1: R Kelly. What do you need tywheek Tyrees? I thought

868
01:00:37,840 --> 01:00:40,400
Speaker 1: I was the big R Kelly fan. Tyrese trumps me

869
01:00:40,520 --> 01:00:45,000
Speaker 1: by a thousand, okay, big of Tyres. So we the

870
01:00:45,160 --> 01:00:50,320
Speaker 1: with the W and uh where is this the W?

871
01:00:50,560 --> 01:00:56,800
Speaker 1: And uh yeah? Westwood, Westwood, Westwood, Yes, and this is

872
01:00:56,840 --> 01:00:58,920
Speaker 1: the first time I meet R. Kelly at the W.

873
01:00:59,280 --> 01:01:02,920
Speaker 1: At the W, Kelly gets off the bus, walks over

874
01:01:03,040 --> 01:01:06,680
Speaker 1: to me, gives me a hug, and the only thing

875
01:01:06,720 --> 01:01:09,800
Speaker 1: he says to me is a devil dead or alive,

876
01:01:09,920 --> 01:01:14,880
Speaker 1: can't keep us apart. And I know what you meant

877
01:01:14,920 --> 01:01:17,240
Speaker 1: by that. You're trying to say that y'all have smoked

878
01:01:17,560 --> 01:01:25,480
Speaker 1: no no for my bad. The first time you met him,

879
01:01:26,120 --> 01:01:29,960
Speaker 1: he said, king of devil dead or alive, keep us apart.

880
01:01:29,960 --> 01:01:33,200
Speaker 1: I know he was talking about. I know who he

881
01:01:33,320 --> 01:01:36,160
Speaker 1: was talking about. Somebody was talking about, y'all know, somebody

882
01:01:36,160 --> 01:01:40,040
Speaker 1: who was just keeping us apart. Because I was signed

883
01:01:41,880 --> 01:01:44,320
Speaker 1: under the idea that I was the next R Kelly

884
01:01:45,200 --> 01:01:49,160
Speaker 1: by the person who made R Kelly m So I

885
01:01:49,200 --> 01:01:52,200
Speaker 1: knew exactly what he was talking about. But that was

886
01:01:52,680 --> 01:01:58,360
Speaker 1: then separate ways and seen him again since cut to Orlando.

887
01:01:58,400 --> 01:02:01,640
Speaker 1: I think it's All Star or Super Bowl celebrity basketball game.

888
01:02:02,160 --> 01:02:06,720
Speaker 1: Chris Brown and celebrity friends versus R Kelly and celebrity friends.

889
01:02:07,200 --> 01:02:17,520
Speaker 1: That's it. They're announcing Chris Brown's celebrity team. It's a

890
01:02:17,640 --> 01:02:22,880
Speaker 1: bunch of celebrities. It's us, right, all of us. Our

891
01:02:22,960 --> 01:02:27,080
Speaker 1: Kelly comes running in with this team. They announced the

01:13:18,000 --> 01:13:21,599
Speaker 1: I'm saying in spite of you know what I mean,

1053
01:13:22,000 --> 01:13:25,080
Speaker 1: it's it's a lot connected to it that you know,

1054
01:13:25,320 --> 01:13:27,400
Speaker 1: we don't have to unpack. We get. But that's why

1055
01:13:27,479 --> 01:13:29,519
Speaker 1: that's why I bring up the Bill Cosby thing is

1056
01:13:29,600 --> 01:13:32,240
Speaker 1: because and I think you asked me earlier that I

1057
01:13:32,360 --> 01:13:34,840
Speaker 1: didn't know how to answer it, um saying, how do

1058
01:13:34,880 --> 01:13:36,960
Speaker 1: you feel when I still see the Cosby Show? Cosby

1059
01:13:37,000 --> 01:13:40,200
Speaker 1: Show is still one of the greatest. It's still a

1060
01:13:40,240 --> 01:13:44,080
Speaker 1: cosmic show, and it made me feel ill like that

1061
01:13:45,240 --> 01:13:48,200
Speaker 1: I could see a positive black family on there. So

1062
01:13:48,280 --> 01:13:50,519
Speaker 1: I don't think it takes away from that. So if

1063
01:13:50,520 --> 01:13:54,680
Speaker 1: you still love R. Kelly's music, that's but it's just

1064
01:13:54,760 --> 01:13:57,360
Speaker 1: the thing is the music what it depicts, and then

1065
01:13:57,479 --> 01:14:00,000
Speaker 1: knowing what the charges, not even what the music depend

1066
01:14:00,040 --> 01:14:03,760
Speaker 1: it's more so with the music enabled the power of

1067
01:14:03,840 --> 01:14:06,679
Speaker 1: the music and the power period, right, but the sexual

1068
01:14:06,840 --> 01:14:09,880
Speaker 1: content thinking that you're talking to a woman or whatever.

1069
01:14:10,320 --> 01:14:13,000
Speaker 1: Then knowing now, that's probably where people have problems, you know,

1070
01:14:13,160 --> 01:14:16,120
Speaker 1: connecting know that think it's great, but then have a

1071
01:14:16,160 --> 01:14:17,640
Speaker 1: hard time. But at the time, while I was being

1072
01:14:17,680 --> 01:14:21,760
Speaker 1: inspired by it, I'm a kid. I don't know. Yeah,

1073
01:14:22,240 --> 01:14:25,479
Speaker 1: but people will see that and say, you know the

1074
01:14:25,560 --> 01:14:28,280
Speaker 1: headline O tank was inspired by R. Kelly and not

1075
01:14:28,400 --> 01:14:30,799
Speaker 1: put it in and not put it in proper context.

1076
01:14:31,040 --> 01:14:33,840
Speaker 1: Every R and B singer you ever run into from now,

1077
01:14:34,360 --> 01:14:37,479
Speaker 1: from then to now on, we'll tell you he's the guy.

1078
01:14:38,800 --> 01:14:41,680
Speaker 1: You can't deny our Kelly. How many rappers careers if

1079
01:14:41,680 --> 01:14:43,439
Speaker 1: they didn't have R Kelly on the home the hook?

1080
01:14:44,680 --> 01:14:47,160
Speaker 1: You gotta like, you gotta give, you gotta give, you

1081
01:14:47,240 --> 01:14:50,720
Speaker 1: gotta give that, yeah, if you don't give nothing else. Yeah,

1082
01:14:51,120 --> 01:14:53,880
Speaker 1: that's why I broke up the Cosby Show because the

1083
01:14:54,000 --> 01:14:56,160
Speaker 1: Cosby Show is just it was it was it was

1084
01:14:56,280 --> 01:14:58,920
Speaker 1: everything we needed. It was funny about the Cosby Show.

1085
01:14:58,960 --> 01:15:01,080
Speaker 1: Sorry to change such a a little bit, but you

1086
01:15:01,200 --> 01:15:04,000
Speaker 1: notice no one from the Cosby Show is dis in Bil,

1087
01:15:05,400 --> 01:15:08,760
Speaker 1: not one of them. It's one character that was Denise's

1088
01:15:08,840 --> 01:15:12,000
Speaker 1: old boyfriend, that's it. But none of them are this

1089
01:15:12,160 --> 01:15:13,760
Speaker 1: and Bill. Well, because you have to look at it

1090
01:15:13,880 --> 01:15:17,560
Speaker 1: like this, right, and let's say, let's say there is

1091
01:15:17,600 --> 01:15:20,800
Speaker 1: a monster that is Bill Cosby. Let's just say it hypothetically.

1092
01:15:21,800 --> 01:15:25,720
Speaker 1: I guarantee you they never got to see him. I

1093
01:15:25,800 --> 01:15:29,479
Speaker 1: guarantee you they never met him. Only only person they

1094
01:15:29,560 --> 01:15:31,880
Speaker 1: met was was a man that changed their lives for

1095
01:15:32,000 --> 01:15:35,719
Speaker 1: the better. Right, they gave them an opportunity to probably

1096
01:15:35,800 --> 01:15:39,960
Speaker 1: so somebody else wouldn't. Nobody else would. That's what they see,

1097
01:15:40,840 --> 01:15:43,080
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? So how do you? How

1098
01:15:43,120 --> 01:15:45,759
Speaker 1: do you? How do you say something against that? If anything,

1099
01:15:45,800 --> 01:15:49,400
Speaker 1: you can't say nothing at all to be in support

1100
01:15:49,560 --> 01:15:52,479
Speaker 1: or or nothing. I don't know who you guys know,

1101
01:15:52,720 --> 01:15:54,639
Speaker 1: who you guys see, or who you guys have met,

1102
01:15:54,760 --> 01:15:57,560
Speaker 1: but the man that I met changed my life for

1103
01:15:57,680 --> 01:16:00,640
Speaker 1: the better. I wouldn't be the So I am the

1104
01:16:00,720 --> 01:16:05,479
Speaker 1: woman of the man that I am without that man, right, Look,

1105
01:16:06,439 --> 01:16:10,640
Speaker 1: come says Shaquillo now jokingly look says that it's not

1106
01:16:10,760 --> 01:16:13,840
Speaker 1: really blind. Get joking, sad, Just Stevie one is not

1107
01:16:14,000 --> 01:16:19,080
Speaker 1: really blind the elevator saying, what's up? I just told

1108
01:16:19,120 --> 01:16:24,880
Speaker 1: you he's blind, but he can see some ship. I

1109
01:16:25,000 --> 01:16:28,080
Speaker 1: love that. By the way, we got one more question

1110
01:16:30,040 --> 01:16:33,800
Speaker 1: to Okay, sorry, I thought it was just not go

1111
01:16:33,880 --> 01:16:37,000
Speaker 1: on that tangent? Was that me? That's my phone, that's all.

1112
01:16:37,040 --> 01:16:39,000
Speaker 1: We didn't do. No, we didn't do the that's that's

01:17:11,520 --> 01:17:14,519

1120
01:17:14,560 --> 01:17:25,280
Speaker 1: a jack through. That's right, that's rights Coco single. And

1121
01:17:25,320 --> 01:17:28,320
Speaker 1: then my girls too. I just did a show with

1122
01:17:28,360 --> 01:17:33,559
Speaker 1: them not too longer. Love love them, love them. Last question,

1123
01:17:33,800 --> 01:17:42,360
Speaker 1: all right, loyalty or respect. It's a great question. It's

1124
01:17:42,400 --> 01:17:54,599
Speaker 1: a great question. I'm gonna go with, just take a shot. Nope,

1125
01:17:59,600 --> 01:18:04,519
Speaker 1: I'm anna with respect. Okay, we definitely need an explanation

1126
01:18:04,560 --> 01:18:12,000
Speaker 1: for this. Respect Why because because loyalty has so many

1127
01:18:12,800 --> 01:18:17,240
Speaker 1: levels to it. There's so many levels to it in

1128
01:18:17,400 --> 01:18:21,280
Speaker 1: terms of what you require from something or someone in

1129
01:18:21,439 --> 01:18:25,840
Speaker 1: order for it to feel like loyalty. It just it

1130
01:18:25,960 --> 01:18:30,160
Speaker 1: just varies so much. But as long as I have

1131
01:18:30,320 --> 01:18:33,800
Speaker 1: your respect, as long as you understand that I am

1132
01:18:33,880 --> 01:18:37,040
Speaker 1: who I am and I do what I do, and

1133
01:18:37,160 --> 01:18:40,400
Speaker 1: you can acknowledge that, I can live with that, as

1134
01:18:40,439 --> 01:18:43,000
Speaker 1: long as you can say, you know what, whether you

1135
01:18:43,320 --> 01:18:46,920
Speaker 1: whether you stay with me or not in terms whether

1136
01:18:46,920 --> 01:18:49,240
Speaker 1: it's business or a person or whatever it is, as

1137
01:18:49,320 --> 01:18:53,439
Speaker 1: long as you can announce acknowledge that motherfucker did right

1138
01:18:53,479 --> 01:18:56,559
Speaker 1: about me. He is what he is, he is everything

1139
01:18:56,640 --> 01:19:00,599
Speaker 1: he says he is. But I can live with it. Man.

1140
01:19:00,760 --> 01:19:02,400
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take a shot to that though. I'm gonna

1141
01:19:02,439 --> 01:19:07,680
Speaker 1: be honest, even though because because you know why, we

1142
01:19:08,000 --> 01:19:12,680
Speaker 1: me and we solo. I'm gonna get over there. I

1143
01:19:12,720 --> 01:19:23,040
Speaker 1: think so. And we always say both, yeah, and we

1144
01:19:23,120 --> 01:19:26,679
Speaker 1: always say both to it because well that's the answer.

1145
01:19:27,040 --> 01:19:29,040
Speaker 1: When it was answered that way, we all it made

1146
01:19:29,080 --> 01:19:30,840
Speaker 1: the most sense to us, right. I mean, I'm still

1147
01:19:30,840 --> 01:19:34,880
Speaker 1: I'm still with both. I'm still with both because I

1148
01:19:34,960 --> 01:19:38,160
Speaker 1: think loyal with loyalty comes respect. I think respect comes loyalty.

1149
01:19:38,560 --> 01:19:44,960
Speaker 1: They're not handed in the same sense. Okay, yeah, because

1150
01:19:45,320 --> 01:19:47,920
Speaker 1: at some point we have to consider self preservation, right,

1151
01:19:48,520 --> 01:19:50,880
Speaker 1: and so as we consider self preservation, we have to

1152
01:19:51,000 --> 01:19:54,400
Speaker 1: consider that for the other person, and sometimes within the

1153
01:19:54,479 --> 01:19:59,440
Speaker 1: interests of self preservation, you are now not the priority.

1154
01:20:00,040 --> 01:20:04,160
Speaker 1: M Like, I love you, but in the interests of

1155
01:20:04,200 --> 01:20:08,960
Speaker 1: self preservation, I can't pick you right, and so the

1156
01:20:09,080 --> 01:20:12,760
Speaker 1: respect takes over when you're able to come to me

1157
01:20:13,160 --> 01:20:17,040
Speaker 1: and articulate that I respect you. So let's let me

1158
01:20:17,160 --> 01:20:19,120
Speaker 1: have this conversation with you. Whether it be a tough

1159
01:20:19,200 --> 01:20:22,799
Speaker 1: conversation or not, it's when there there's no respect involved

1160
01:20:23,360 --> 01:20:32,240
Speaker 1: where that disloyal situations can be wrong by both. You

1161
01:20:32,360 --> 01:20:36,120
Speaker 1: can't but respect. If you don't want to wrong with

1162
01:20:36,200 --> 01:20:40,000
Speaker 1: me no more after everything I've done, at least come

1163
01:20:40,000 --> 01:20:42,280
Speaker 1: and tell me. Don't let me find out on the streets.

1164
01:20:42,360 --> 01:20:45,280
Speaker 1: Have that kind of respect for me. That's that's why

1165
01:20:45,280 --> 01:20:47,000
Speaker 1: I could respect. I think the reason why we would

1166
01:20:47,000 --> 01:20:49,040
Speaker 1: say both is because we feel when you have both,

1167
01:20:49,640 --> 01:20:52,680
Speaker 1: there's better chances in heah, it'll be a better situation

1168
01:20:52,960 --> 01:20:56,840
Speaker 1: when there's just one there, there's more opportunity can tell

1169
01:20:56,840 --> 01:21:00,479
Speaker 1: you it's it's it's hard to get both after it's

1170
01:21:00,520 --> 01:21:02,600
Speaker 1: hard to get even when you think it's usually not

1171
01:21:03,280 --> 01:21:07,800
Speaker 1: the both are this moment circles this moment. I can

1172
01:21:07,840 --> 01:21:12,720
Speaker 1: count those people on one and a half hands. Right,

1173
01:21:13,120 --> 01:21:20,000
Speaker 1: let's make some noise for that. Good questions? What era

1174
01:21:20,760 --> 01:21:23,600
Speaker 1: of R and B do you think has is the

1175
01:21:23,680 --> 01:21:27,160
Speaker 1: most impactful? Nineties? And that what google should we talking

1176
01:21:27,160 --> 01:21:30,519
Speaker 1: about in the nineties boys men to see even before

1177
01:21:30,600 --> 01:21:36,599
Speaker 1: the going back to Kelly sixties and seven, Juine, Drew Hill,

1178
01:21:38,120 --> 01:21:44,640
Speaker 1: uh Jacket, Edge one twelve, Danielle Jones, Monica Brandy And

1179
01:21:44,720 --> 01:21:46,880
Speaker 1: why do you think that's the most impactful. Why do

1180
01:21:46,920 --> 01:21:48,400
Speaker 1: you think those groups? What did they do that you

1181
01:21:48,479 --> 01:21:52,000
Speaker 1: feel most impactful. I'll be selfish first and say they

1182
01:21:52,120 --> 01:21:56,920
Speaker 1: made me. I'll start there, um and that was my era,

1183
01:21:57,040 --> 01:21:58,639
Speaker 1: That's the ere I lived in. That's the era where

1184
01:21:58,680 --> 01:22:01,240
Speaker 1: I put on some into pocket guest jings in the

1185
01:22:01,280 --> 01:22:04,800
Speaker 1: party shirt and and went to some young ladies house

1186
01:22:04,840 --> 01:22:07,000
Speaker 1: who was having the basement party. You know what I'm saying,

1187
01:22:07,400 --> 01:22:10,200
Speaker 1: And we gotta try and put the lights off, you

1188
01:22:10,240 --> 01:22:14,160
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying finger popping. Absolutely, what do you

Speaker 1: that figured Okay, pack my hands out. This is straight banker,

1191
01:22:30,360 --> 01:22:41,080
Speaker 1: I'm big. That's my era, like where they were the

1192
01:22:41,200 --> 01:22:45,120
Speaker 1: last even when you know the up tempos were ruling

1193
01:22:45,280 --> 01:22:48,479
Speaker 1: through in the world the last hour, hour and a

1194
01:22:48,600 --> 01:22:53,280
Speaker 1: half of whatever function you was at. Slow jams, you

1195
01:22:53,360 --> 01:22:56,439
Speaker 1: got to you got to really dig in and grab

1196
01:22:56,640 --> 01:22:59,720
Speaker 1: them cheeks and side to side. Man, what you're doing

Speaker 1: like they're like, I've been feeling you all know, I've

01:23:04,479 --> 01:23:06,360

01:23:57,520 --> 01:24:00,200
Speaker 1: just wanted to see how this ship feel, and it

1213
01:24:00,400 --> 01:24:03,400
Speaker 1: was all positive energy. I was like, yeah, do you

1214
01:24:03,560 --> 01:24:07,320
Speaker 1: know how y'all blessed? Like hip hop? We hip hop.

1215
01:24:07,400 --> 01:24:09,680
Speaker 1: You gotta be on point because you just feel like

1216
01:24:09,800 --> 01:24:12,640
Speaker 1: someone else is just gonna test you or try you.

1217
01:24:13,080 --> 01:24:14,560
Speaker 1: But when I go to R and B, or I

1218
01:24:14,680 --> 01:24:17,800
Speaker 1: go to a comedian concert and I just sit there

1219
01:24:17,840 --> 01:24:23,519
Speaker 1: and there's no valid very jealous. Validation is different. Your

1220
01:24:23,640 --> 01:24:28,080
Speaker 1: validation is a rap sheet that's just suck up. That's

1221
01:24:28,120 --> 01:24:33,360
Speaker 1: funny because it's true. It's funny. That's your validation. You

1222
01:24:33,520 --> 01:24:40,559
Speaker 1: have to have attempted murder, being the murder can serve

1223
01:24:40,680 --> 01:24:45,040
Speaker 1: the drug and shot they want you to get at.

1224
01:24:45,080 --> 01:24:51,439
Speaker 1: He's grazy, show me the wound. Yeah, it's a survival music.

1225
01:24:51,520 --> 01:24:58,640
Speaker 1: It's still yeah. My validation. Let's my validation is a

1226
01:24:58,720 --> 01:25:04,120
Speaker 1: woman screaming out loud. But there could be dangerous too,

1227
01:25:04,360 --> 01:25:11,599
Speaker 1: like hey, got wed let me just let me tell

1228
01:25:11,600 --> 01:25:14,800
Speaker 1: you something. When I did regg E thron for the

1229
01:25:15,400 --> 01:25:17,680
Speaker 1: year and a half two years i did, I was

1230
01:25:17,800 --> 01:25:20,679
Speaker 1: probably the most happiest I've ever been at the music

1231
01:25:21,320 --> 01:25:24,680
Speaker 1: because I would party and in Orlando you said on

1232
01:25:24,760 --> 01:25:28,320
Speaker 1: Lando earlier, Land was one of mym and we were

1233
01:25:28,479 --> 01:25:32,280
Speaker 1: party and party afterwards. I wasn't used to that. I

1234
01:25:32,400 --> 01:25:36,360
Speaker 1: was used to party and then the party closes, something's

1235
01:25:36,360 --> 01:25:37,760
Speaker 1: going to happen, and I could sit there and I

1236
01:25:37,840 --> 01:25:40,160
Speaker 1: could just damn and I was just I was like

1237
01:25:40,240 --> 01:25:41,960
Speaker 1: the happiest guy. I should have been a vegan at

1238
01:25:41,960 --> 01:25:44,880
Speaker 1: the time, because I was just happy because because you

1239
01:25:44,920 --> 01:25:48,240
Speaker 1: knew to be happy and like I was just said,

1240
01:25:48,400 --> 01:25:50,519
Speaker 1: and I was like when I realized, then I went

1241
01:25:50,560 --> 01:25:53,120
Speaker 1: back to hip hop and I had to get back

1242
01:25:53,439 --> 01:25:56,840
Speaker 1: used to violence like that was just you have no

1243
01:25:57,040 --> 01:26:00,439
Speaker 1: front ship, wasn't done a drink. I'm a be honest.

1244
01:26:00,479 --> 01:26:03,840
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be honest. Nine nine shows and a hundred

1245
01:26:03,920 --> 01:26:07,120
Speaker 1: shows of reggae through I swear to god, probably ninety

1246
01:26:07,160 --> 01:26:10,679
Speaker 1: nine of them. Nothing nothing ever happened. Nothing, nothing never happened,

1247
01:26:10,680 --> 01:26:12,559
Speaker 1: I swear to god. It's nothing to say. That's why

1248
01:26:12,560 --> 01:26:14,160
Speaker 1: I said ninety nine. I never said that. Was that

1249
01:26:14,280 --> 01:26:17,240
Speaker 1: one of them that who was that and got crazy?

1250
01:26:17,680 --> 01:26:25,479
Speaker 1: It's probably because when she makes nothing, y'all, yeah, it happens.

1251
01:26:26,439 --> 01:26:34,160
Speaker 1: Probably crowd. I don't even do that. Inspires you to

1252
01:26:34,560 --> 01:26:38,679
Speaker 1: show what you made, though, But that's fuck does sheet music?

1253
01:26:39,640 --> 01:26:45,280
Speaker 1: That's you know, say I got a rap sheet as

1254
01:26:45,360 --> 01:26:48,680
Speaker 1: it in today's time, because nobody's really checking them all,

1255
01:26:48,760 --> 01:26:54,200
Speaker 1: not all MC's not all rappers. It's fabricated. Not all

1256
01:26:54,240 --> 01:26:56,559
Speaker 1: of them are rhyming about that, that's true. I mean

1257
01:26:56,840 --> 01:27:03,960
Speaker 1: most star nine D sound that's a percentage. Look at

1258
01:27:04,000 --> 01:27:06,080
Speaker 1: the charts. No charge. If you're talking about charges, that

1259
01:27:06,439 --> 01:27:08,800
Speaker 1: what's the I mean? But but but that's how we're

1260
01:27:08,800 --> 01:27:14,360
Speaker 1: identified rights a lot of things that if they want

1261
01:27:14,400 --> 01:27:16,880
Speaker 1: to know the best about, that's where they look. They

1262
01:27:16,960 --> 01:27:22,519
Speaker 1: looking mainstream culture, right, and what is maxstream culture? It's violence,

1263
01:27:22,960 --> 01:27:27,040
Speaker 1: just drug dealing, is drug selling us? That's what That's

1264
01:27:27,080 --> 01:27:32,080
Speaker 1: what they that's what they perceived the best. Why why

1265
01:27:32,160 --> 01:27:37,120
Speaker 1: is that the best of us? Why? Like Sam Smith

1266
01:27:37,200 --> 01:27:41,400
Speaker 1: gets to sing a great song about stay with Me

1267
01:27:42,880 --> 01:27:46,479
Speaker 1: that goes straight to power rotation on the mainstream radio station.

1268
01:27:46,640 --> 01:27:52,879
Speaker 1: If I sing that same song stay with Me, limited bandwidth.

1269
01:27:55,160 --> 01:28:06,120
Speaker 1: Because our violence isn't the threat our love it Yeah,

1270
01:28:09,840 --> 01:28:15,639
Speaker 1: our family separated, it's fine, it's perfect. The man staying

1271
01:28:15,680 --> 01:28:18,599
Speaker 1: with his family and raising his kids and pouring into

1272
01:28:18,760 --> 01:28:23,880
Speaker 1: his woman, that's a threat. You're about to be a preacher.

1273
01:28:30,600 --> 01:28:32,720
Speaker 1: And that's what R and B stands for. And that's

1274
01:28:32,720 --> 01:28:35,759
Speaker 1: why R and B takes such a back seat, because

1275
01:28:35,800 --> 01:28:42,000
Speaker 1: we're not promoting the aesthetic that continues to perpetuate the stereotype.

1276
01:28:43,640 --> 01:28:46,599
Speaker 1: You guys are killers, you guys are animals, You guys

1277
01:28:46,640 --> 01:28:51,160
Speaker 1: are savages. That's when you're at your best. So that's

1278
01:28:51,200 --> 01:28:55,040
Speaker 1: what we're going to reward. Those are the guys who

1279
01:28:55,120 --> 01:28:58,320
Speaker 1: get the hundred million dollar deals. Those are the guys

1280
01:28:58,400 --> 01:29:02,559
Speaker 1: who fill up the arenas and stadiums to talk that ship.

1281
01:29:02,760 --> 01:29:09,280
Speaker 1: We love when you talk that ship love, We're cool.

1282
01:29:10,200 --> 01:29:14,840
Speaker 1: We're cool. I love love you do. Wasn't love and

1283
01:29:14,920 --> 01:29:24,680
Speaker 1: love popular? We don't control, we don't own conglomerates. It

1284
01:29:24,800 --> 01:29:31,880
Speaker 1: comes down to ownership. Yeah, we don't own radio, we

1285
01:29:32,040 --> 01:29:36,519
Speaker 1: don't own streaming, we don't own media, we don't own

1286
01:29:36,600 --> 01:29:41,120
Speaker 1: none of it. But we own our feelings. And it's

1287
01:29:41,280 --> 01:29:44,720
Speaker 1: very seldom that people promote love and love, love and

1288
01:29:44,800 --> 01:29:47,640
Speaker 1: being in love well, because what happens now is that

1289
01:29:47,840 --> 01:29:50,680
Speaker 1: with with social media and all these other things, you

1290
01:29:50,840 --> 01:29:54,960
Speaker 1: get hypnotized by an algorithm, so and everybody wants to

1291
01:29:55,000 --> 01:29:58,000
Speaker 1: be popping right. So in the idea of wanting to

1292
01:29:58,040 --> 01:30:01,880
Speaker 1: be popping, You're gonna roll with what's popping. Nobody's they're

1293
01:30:01,880 --> 01:30:04,280
Speaker 1: not leaders anymore. The followers like what happened in the

1294
01:30:04,360 --> 01:30:07,600
Speaker 1: oscars that that became immediately everybody had to post that

1295
01:30:07,760 --> 01:30:13,720
Speaker 1: had they want they wanted to be so bad. It's

1296
01:30:13,760 --> 01:30:16,559
Speaker 1: the algorithm. I'm sorry, you have a business. I got

1297
01:30:19,760 --> 01:30:23,880
Speaker 1: you didn't, I mean whatever. I'm just saying last night immediately,

1298
01:30:23,960 --> 01:30:27,439
Speaker 1: not a second past. And that means they put everybody

1299
01:30:27,479 --> 01:30:29,320
Speaker 1: bom bom bom. And I'm like, wow, we live in

1300
01:30:29,360 --> 01:30:35,240
Speaker 1: a mean beef in that algorithm, right, And so the

1301
01:30:35,320 --> 01:30:44,080
Speaker 1: algorithm is is drugs, abuse of any kind, ratchet killing.

1302
01:30:44,439 --> 01:30:47,160
Speaker 1: It's all like it's a I'm victim of it. I'm

1303
01:30:47,200 --> 01:30:51,800
Speaker 1: a world star. Like I'm just looking. I'm like, you know,

01:31:12,240 --> 01:31:18,920

1321
01:32:12,200 --> 01:32:15,679
Speaker 1: about Denzel. You what he said told Will? He said,

1322
01:32:15,880 --> 01:32:18,200
Speaker 1: the Devil's gonna come at you when you're at your high.

1323
01:32:18,280 --> 01:32:24,719
Speaker 1: Of course, of course it's gonna be Would imagine didn't

1324
01:32:24,720 --> 01:32:29,160

01:32:29,200 --> 01:32:35,920
Speaker 1: for Malcolm X. It's the world we're living. Yeah? Did

1326
01:32:35,960 --> 01:32:40,800
Speaker 1: he did he work? Did he work? One of my

1327
01:32:40,880 --> 01:32:46,080
Speaker 1: favorite movies of Denzel Remember the Titans football? Absolutely, you

1328
01:32:46,160 --> 01:32:50,920
Speaker 1: will remember the night you played the Titans. Whether you

1329
01:32:51,000 --> 01:32:53,519
Speaker 1: win or lose, you don't remember this night. I used that.

1330
01:32:53,920 --> 01:32:55,360
Speaker 1: I used that to do you remember like the saw

1331
01:32:55,640 --> 01:32:58,439
Speaker 1: to night you saw Tank? Yeah? You gave me when

1332
01:32:58,439 --> 01:33:04,240
Speaker 1: you get lucky enough what you're doing right. But but imagine,

1333
01:33:04,960 --> 01:33:10,240
Speaker 1: imagine winning for being a crooked cop, being a nigger

1334
01:33:10,240 --> 01:33:13,280
Speaker 1: at its finest. But let's just be clear, Tank and

1335
01:33:13,520 --> 01:33:17,320
Speaker 1: all honesty. He killed, that's not going to lie to you.

1336
01:33:17,560 --> 01:33:21,439
Speaker 1: He did, but didn't kill everything that everything he didn't.

1337
01:33:21,960 --> 01:33:24,200
Speaker 1: But I don't sell it for that or not anything else,

1338
01:33:24,439 --> 01:33:26,000
Speaker 1: you know what, I'm gonna be honest. I think that

1339
01:33:26,120 --> 01:33:29,000
Speaker 1: they slept on Malcolm X and they didn't. They didn't

1340
01:33:29,040 --> 01:33:32,479
Speaker 1: want to give that power black image. We're not giving

1341
01:33:32,720 --> 01:33:38,320
Speaker 1: power to black. I respect that power. What it is

1342
01:33:39,920 --> 01:33:43,880
Speaker 1: you're going to win in the space we think you

1343
01:33:43,920 --> 01:33:47,360
Speaker 1: should win in where we think you're at your best.

1344
01:33:49,720 --> 01:33:52,840
Speaker 1: This is where you live for us. Now we will

1345
01:33:52,920 --> 01:33:57,200
Speaker 1: reward you how that works. I'm about to say, take

1346
01:33:57,240 --> 01:33:58,559
Speaker 1: a shot, but I don't think she'd take a shot

1347
01:33:58,600 --> 01:34:08,679
Speaker 1: for that. Probably not, but maybe not just as real.

1348
01:34:09,400 --> 01:34:12,880
Speaker 1: It's real, And I'm not listening as much as as

1349
01:34:12,960 --> 01:34:16,719
Speaker 1: much as the Will you know smacking, you know, smack

1350
01:34:16,760 --> 01:34:20,120
Speaker 1: and Chris is a thing. I'm not gonna let that

1351
01:34:20,280 --> 01:34:27,160
Speaker 1: overshadow the fact that Will got his oscar. He did

1352
01:34:27,160 --> 01:34:33,600
Speaker 1: you see the movie? Actually Smith wanted for absolutely. I

1353
01:34:33,720 --> 01:34:36,800
Speaker 1: was obviously with the movie what's that? What do you mean?

1354
01:34:37,360 --> 01:34:40,240
Speaker 1: Because and I think I think it probably was a

1355
01:34:40,360 --> 01:34:44,720
Speaker 1: licensing issue because I felt like we never got to

1356
01:34:44,880 --> 01:34:51,040
Speaker 1: see Venus and Serena do everything that they did, and

1357
01:34:51,120 --> 01:34:53,600
Speaker 1: maybe that's for another movie. Yeah, you know, but I

1358
01:34:53,800 --> 01:34:56,519
Speaker 1: was I was waiting about Tupac. I was I was

1359
01:34:56,640 --> 01:35:01,120
Speaker 1: waiting to go into all the grands. I was waiting

1360
01:35:01,160 --> 01:35:04,640
Speaker 1: to go there because I watched all of it, and

1361
01:35:04,760 --> 01:35:06,320
Speaker 1: that's all. That's only when I was mad at I

1362
01:35:06,400 --> 01:35:07,920
Speaker 1: got to where it didn't go there. I got where

1363
01:35:08,360 --> 01:35:12,320
Speaker 1: I probably didn't. There's some probably some Venus and Serena

1364
01:35:12,400 --> 01:35:15,759
Speaker 1: was like, now that that's ours, this story, his story.

1365
01:35:17,120 --> 01:35:18,560
Speaker 1: That's what I felt like. I felt like it was

1366
01:35:18,680 --> 01:35:22,519
Speaker 1: his story with them in it. But I wanted to

1367
01:35:22,600 --> 01:35:24,600
Speaker 1: see that. So was it? What was his name? Was

1368
01:35:24,640 --> 01:35:27,800
Speaker 1: the name of it? You can't watch that and not

1369
01:35:27,920 --> 01:35:30,240
Speaker 1: be like, I gotta be a better parent or create

1370
01:35:30,280 --> 01:35:34,519
Speaker 1: a better structure all the time. Can we take a

1371
01:35:34,520 --> 01:35:43,320
Speaker 1: shot to came rich? Figure? I say this all the time.

1372
01:35:43,360 --> 01:35:45,640
Speaker 1: I said the other day in Queen's Bridge, I said, Yo,

1373
01:35:46,080 --> 01:35:51,160
Speaker 1: the first time I actually thought I saw like over extended,

1374
01:35:51,880 --> 01:35:55,240
Speaker 1: extended the amount of love was watching wrong our tests

1375
01:35:55,600 --> 01:35:59,479
Speaker 1: as father t and they I mean, you know when

1376
01:35:59,479 --> 01:36:01,920
Speaker 1: New York sit. So I'm from left Frac City, but

1377
01:36:01,960 --> 01:36:03,600
Speaker 1: I used to go to Queensbridge and go visit my

1378
01:36:03,680 --> 01:36:06,320
Speaker 1: friends and it was too cold for us to even

1379
01:36:06,400 --> 01:36:09,080
Speaker 1: stand outside. And I would see Ron Artests and his

1380
01:36:09,200 --> 01:36:12,840
Speaker 1: father and he'll be throwing the ball like staring his

1381
01:36:13,040 --> 01:36:18,040
Speaker 1: chest and this is snowing, he's slipping, he's picking them up,

1382
01:36:19,200 --> 01:36:22,360
Speaker 1: and at first my first thought was this is child abuse.

1383
01:36:22,640 --> 01:36:24,479
Speaker 1: But first of all, excuse me. It was so bad.

1384
01:36:24,560 --> 01:36:26,360
Speaker 1: At first, I didn't even know that was his father,

1385
01:36:26,920 --> 01:36:31,360
Speaker 1: I thought because because I didn't think that was they

1386
01:36:31,400 --> 01:36:33,960
Speaker 1: were brothers. And then I realized, I said, yo, the same.

1387
01:36:34,439 --> 01:36:36,320
Speaker 1: They go at it all the time, these brothers, and

1388
01:36:36,360 --> 01:36:40,400
Speaker 1: they're like, nah, that's Ron's father. So he would be

1389
01:36:40,479 --> 01:36:43,120
Speaker 1: out there in the snow, like I know for a

1390
01:36:43,240 --> 01:36:45,880
Speaker 1: fact one million per cent Ron Artest is one million

1391
01:36:45,920 --> 01:36:49,360
Speaker 1: percent in NBA because of his father. I got to

1392
01:36:49,439 --> 01:36:52,240
Speaker 1: see this ship with myself. I'm talking about in the snow.

1393

1394
01:36:54,320 --> 01:36:56,840
Speaker 1: smell cracker because I'm out there like that, and these

1400
01:37:21,479 --> 01:37:24,240

01:47:14,200 --> 01:47:18,160
Speaker 1: you were living in the affirmative, I think you're picking

1546

1551
01:47:53,600 --> 01:47:58,120
Speaker 1: me ready. Okay, you're living in the affirmative, right, which

1552
01:47:58,160 --> 01:48:01,400
Speaker 1: means you're sure that things, these things should happen, And

1553
01:48:01,560 --> 01:48:06,120
Speaker 1: I was living in the speculative space, where isn't maybe

1554
01:48:07,600 --> 01:48:12,000
Speaker 1: maybe you should do that. I wouldn't advise it, but

1555
01:48:12,160 --> 01:48:15,960
Speaker 1: if so, maybe if it did happen in some way,

1556
01:48:16,040 --> 01:48:19,760
Speaker 1: shape or form, I could accept it because of all

1557
01:48:19,840 --> 01:48:25,400
Speaker 1: the things that I've done. Maybe leaves a lot of

1558
01:48:25,560 --> 01:48:30,640
Speaker 1: room right for for men. We need room. We need

1559
01:48:30,720 --> 01:48:34,240
Speaker 1: room to change our minds. We need room to be assholes.

1560
01:48:34,479 --> 01:48:38,920

1563
01:48:50,120 --> 01:48:53,840

Speaker 1: believe that everything about my real life will will work

1605
01:51:54,600 --> 01:51:58,799
Speaker 1: from this point on. So I never wrote from fantasy

1615
01:52:36,840 --> 01:52:42,960

1620
01:52:57,120 --> 01:53:02,840
Speaker 1: I'm like. Yes, Kelly Roland is by far one of

1621
01:53:02,920 --> 01:53:06,719
Speaker 1: the most talented females I've ever worked with in my life,

1622
01:53:08,400 --> 01:53:13,559
Speaker 1: by far. And I'm sitting in the studio like, hear

1691
01:57:50,840 --> 01:57:53,320

1692
01:57:53,440 --> 01:57:55,560
Speaker 1: when you know, when a guy was holding seven hundred

1693
01:57:55,560 --> 01:57:58,200
Speaker 1: thousand Okay, so that's where I but that wasn't public.

1694
01:57:58,600 --> 01:58:00,960
Speaker 1: That's where that's where I went. You know, I went different,

1695
01:58:01,600 --> 01:58:03,480
Speaker 1: and I turned into a guy that I didn't I

1696
01:58:03,520 --> 01:58:07,880
Speaker 1: shouldn't have been, and I and I and I I

1697
01:58:07,960 --> 01:58:10,360
Speaker 1: suffered because of that. I set from two thousand two

1698
01:58:10,400 --> 01:58:13,880
Speaker 1: to two thousand seven, because you know, I told a

1699
01:58:13,920 --> 01:58:16,880
Speaker 1: guy listened before before any of those guys, you know,

1700
01:58:17,240 --> 01:58:19,600
Speaker 1: we'll get to your house to protect you. I'll get

1701
01:58:19,640 --> 01:58:26,720
Speaker 1: there before them. Now, let's work. I've been in that place.

1702
01:58:27,640 --> 01:58:30,920
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. But I really loved this ship,

1703
01:58:31,240 --> 01:58:39,760
Speaker 1: nor you really love the music. I really love making music. Listen,

1704
01:58:41,240 --> 01:58:43,440
Speaker 1: I was doing this for a hundred and fifty dollars

1705
01:58:43,520 --> 01:58:48,040
Speaker 1: a week. I was doing it for a hundred and

1706
01:58:48,120 --> 01:58:52,480
Speaker 1: fifty dollars a week, and I was happy. I got

1707
01:58:52,520 --> 01:58:57,240
Speaker 1: close to six figures a show. Are you kidding me

1708
01:58:57,520 --> 01:59:03,920
Speaker 1: to sing? Yes, sir, having the time of my life?

1709
01:59:04,720 --> 01:59:10,960
Speaker 1: I'm having the time of my What you need? No? No, no, no, no, no,

1710
01:59:11,200 --> 01:59:13,040
Speaker 1: keep going. You keep blowing that smoke. I don't know

1711
01:59:13,040 --> 01:59:17,280
Speaker 1: what's happening to me. I don't smoke. Well, you didn't

1712
01:59:17,280 --> 01:59:26,960
Speaker 1: take smoking. I genuinely, I genuinely enjoy R and B

1713
01:59:27,120 --> 01:59:31,640
Speaker 1: music and everybody doing it. I genuinely even Young Blue

1714
01:59:33,160 --> 01:59:37,680
Speaker 1: new guy. What's he saying again? What the song would

1715
01:59:37,760 --> 01:59:48,440
Speaker 1: right if I ever time? Is because we had a

1716
01:59:48,520 --> 01:59:53,320
Speaker 1: we had a thing online. What happened I forgot okay,

1717
01:59:53,760 --> 01:59:56,200
Speaker 1: I only google the positive part of you. I didn't

1718
01:59:56,640 --> 02:00:00,440
Speaker 1: appreciate you for that, I thought, But you got to it,

1719
02:00:02,480 --> 02:00:04,760
Speaker 1: says A guy says, I think that Young Blue might

1720
02:00:04,800 --> 02:00:07,440
Speaker 1: be the new king of R and by well, one

1721
02:00:07,520 --> 02:00:13,560
Speaker 1: record to okay, my back, and I said, I'm so

1722
02:00:13,760 --> 02:00:16,680
Speaker 1: glad I was born in a different generation, because this

1723
02:00:16,880 --> 02:00:22,160
Speaker 1: generation is wild in terms of how they throw out calculates.

1724
02:00:22,360 --> 02:00:27,680
Speaker 1: King and Queen got go Not any disrespect to him,

1725
02:00:27,960 --> 02:00:30,680
Speaker 1: no disrespect for him at all at all. But do

1726
02:00:30,880 --> 02:00:32,680
Speaker 1: you know what goat? And what do you know? What?

1727
02:00:36,320 --> 02:00:37,680
Speaker 1: Do you know what that means? You know what it

1728
02:00:37,960 --> 02:00:42,040
Speaker 1: means to have a guy like jay Z, have a

1729
02:00:42,080 --> 02:00:45,200
Speaker 1: guy like nas Drake, to have a guy, to have people,

1730
02:00:45,400 --> 02:00:49,840
Speaker 1: to have a Chris Brown, r Kelly, to have these

1731
02:00:49,920 --> 02:00:56,400
Speaker 1: guys who have to have guys who have had another name.

1732
02:00:56,480 --> 02:00:59,200
Speaker 1: To that that, I have to add baby Face. You've

1733
02:00:59,200 --> 02:01:02,600
Speaker 1: been skipping baby Face all night. Let me not baby Face,

1734
02:01:02,640 --> 02:01:05,000
Speaker 1: because he's the guy who I really want to be

1735
02:01:05,800 --> 02:01:09,400
Speaker 1: Slash Keith Sweat. We'll get to all of that. I

1736
02:01:09,440 --> 02:01:12,480
Speaker 1: don't think baby Face ever raised his voice. Doesn't have to.

1737
02:01:12,720 --> 02:01:16,160
Speaker 1: I don't think he's yelled in his life. Doesn't have to. Ye,

1738
02:01:16,880 --> 02:01:19,160
Speaker 1: I don't know why he says, I give the love.

1739
02:01:19,680 --> 02:01:22,200
Speaker 1: I'll cook your dinner too as soon as I get

1740
02:01:22,280 --> 02:01:28,000
Speaker 1: home from work. This motherfucker worked eight hours, came home,

1741
02:01:28,640 --> 02:01:31,720
Speaker 1: fuck the ship out of him, and then cook dinner.

1742
02:01:32,040 --> 02:01:34,880
Speaker 1: That's what he just said. That's what he said after

1743
02:01:35,000 --> 02:01:38,480
Speaker 1: he got home from work eight hour shift, hard body,

1744
02:01:38,600 --> 02:01:42,440
Speaker 1: karate who you want to be? Who you want to be?

1745
02:01:45,960 --> 02:01:53,200
Speaker 1: Where were we going? But the tweet came out and

1746
02:01:53,760 --> 02:01:57,080
Speaker 1: he felt a way like as if I was disrespecting him. Right.

1747
02:01:58,120 --> 02:02:00,600
Speaker 1: I don't think he realizes that I'm a fan of

1748
02:02:00,760 --> 02:02:05,600
Speaker 1: him because I only liked that song and I only

1749
02:02:05,680 --> 02:02:10,840
Speaker 1: want the younger generation two fight for their space and

1750
02:02:11,120 --> 02:02:15,600
Speaker 1: earned their space, versus just throw around to take it

1751
02:02:16,880 --> 02:02:21,600
Speaker 1: like you can't you can't take king or go. You

1752
02:02:21,680 --> 02:02:28,280
Speaker 1: can't take that. You have to earn that. But I

1753
02:02:28,440 --> 02:02:32,800
Speaker 1: do understand why he felt that way because but he

1754
02:02:32,920 --> 02:02:37,520
Speaker 1: didn't say he's the goat. No, he didn't say it them.

1755
02:02:38,320 --> 02:02:41,240
Speaker 1: But what happened to We're back to that straw breaking

1756
02:02:41,320 --> 02:02:43,720
Speaker 1: the camel's back. And this is what I noticed in

1757
02:02:43,920 --> 02:02:48,080
Speaker 1: some of what he said in his response. People have

1758
02:02:48,360 --> 02:02:53,960
Speaker 1: been people have been taken away from his creativity and

1759
02:02:54,160 --> 02:02:58,240
Speaker 1: diminishing his ability to do what he does since he started.

1760
02:02:58,760 --> 02:03:02,680
Speaker 1: It wasn't about me, m hmm. I was just the

1761
02:03:02,800 --> 02:03:07,160
Speaker 1: person that came at the right time that you're CHRISTI

1762
02:03:07,360 --> 02:03:11,400
Speaker 1: where he was Chris Rock, did we go there? I

1763
02:03:11,440 --> 02:03:18,640
Speaker 1: mean I was Christal I was. I was My voice

1764
02:03:18,760 --> 02:03:21,680
Speaker 1: was too much at that time. Had it been anybody

1765
02:03:21,720 --> 02:03:24,200
Speaker 1: else but Chris Rock, I don't think Will would have

1766
02:03:24,200 --> 02:03:27,840
Speaker 1: walked on that stage. But it's Chris Rock. It's too big,

1767
02:03:27,920 --> 02:03:31,680
Speaker 1: it's too powerful. I have to address this. So I

1768
02:03:31,840 --> 02:03:34,560
Speaker 1: understand why Young Blue had to address it the way

1769
02:03:34,640 --> 02:03:37,280
Speaker 1: he did. And I even text him before he even

1770
02:03:37,320 --> 02:03:39,920
Speaker 1: tweeted anything. I said, Si, bro, it's not what you

1771
02:03:40,040 --> 02:03:43,400
Speaker 1: think it is. I rock with you. And he's still

1772
02:03:44,440 --> 02:03:48,280
Speaker 1: made some more posts, which I think was probably encouraged

1773
02:03:49,120 --> 02:03:51,200
Speaker 1: by some other people because he's a good kid. He's

1774
02:03:51,240 --> 02:03:53,640
Speaker 1: not a bad kid at all. So what actually happened

1775
02:03:54,760 --> 02:03:57,520
Speaker 1: this was over my head. I just didn't want I

1776
02:03:57,600 --> 02:03:59,760
Speaker 1: don't like me and John Queens went through this. Who's

1777
02:03:59,800 --> 02:04:02,920
Speaker 1: my brother, my little brother, and I love Jack Quiss.

1778
02:04:03,920 --> 02:04:05,760
Speaker 1: He is the king of R and B two. I

1779
02:04:05,920 --> 02:04:08,120
Speaker 1: love Jack Quis. He could say whatever he want to say,

1780
02:04:08,320 --> 02:04:11,040
Speaker 1: and I'm a support him period. I don't care what

1781
02:04:11,120 --> 02:04:14,960
Speaker 1: he says. That's my little nigga, right. And somebody was

1782
02:04:15,400 --> 02:04:17,440
Speaker 1: somebody was calling somebody else was saying he's the king

1783
02:04:17,560 --> 02:04:19,720
Speaker 1: or he's the way I said, you and not the king.

1784
02:04:19,880 --> 02:04:23,240
Speaker 1: You ain't put enough work yet how do you pass

1785
02:04:23,320 --> 02:04:25,880
Speaker 1: Chris Brown just all of a sudden because and he

1786
02:04:26,000 --> 02:04:29,960
Speaker 1: said it's this generation, it's not a generational thing. I

1787
02:04:30,080 --> 02:04:34,040
Speaker 1: think he's right. Let me just tell you why what

1788
02:04:34,480 --> 02:04:39,160
Speaker 1: this generation calls goat and king is only different. You

1789
02:04:39,240 --> 02:04:42,800
Speaker 1: gotta say what you're saying, right, So what's right about that? No,

1790
02:04:42,960 --> 02:04:46,600
Speaker 1: that's not right. You can see the point. I can

1791
02:04:46,640 --> 02:04:48,840
Speaker 1: see you know what I'm saying, because I can see

1792
02:04:48,880 --> 02:04:51,960
Speaker 1: them saying he is the most revered in that space

1793
02:04:52,160 --> 02:04:54,520
Speaker 1: at the moment, because you know what I think, because

1794
02:04:54,560 --> 02:04:57,960
Speaker 1: everything nowadays is at the moment in the social media

1795
02:04:58,880 --> 02:05:05,680
Speaker 1: come from we come from we come from pain, dudes different,

1796
02:05:05,760 --> 02:05:08,760
Speaker 1: it's different now. And me and Jocquis is my that's

1797
02:05:08,800 --> 02:05:11,040
Speaker 1: my family. I know his mom that that's the family. Like.

1798
02:05:11,160 --> 02:05:13,680
Speaker 1: So we talked it out. We were able to talk

1799
02:05:13,720 --> 02:05:16,160
Speaker 1: about and like, I love beautiful, I love you bro,

1800
02:05:16,920 --> 02:05:18,840
Speaker 1: and we mean Young Blue, we're taking a shot to that.

1801
02:05:18,960 --> 02:05:22,880
Speaker 1: I feel like it's take a shot that we just

1802
02:05:23,000 --> 02:05:24,240
Speaker 1: you know, I'll just take a shot and get a

1803
02:05:24,240 --> 02:05:25,760
Speaker 1: little shot with you. Yeah, come on, let's go on.

1804
02:05:25,800 --> 02:05:30,240
Speaker 1: Let's go. Yes to R and B niggas not having me.

1805
02:05:32,120 --> 02:05:34,320
Speaker 1: So me and Young Blue haven't been able to talk

1806
02:05:34,400 --> 02:05:36,920
Speaker 1: that out yet, which I which I hope to do. Yeah,

1807
02:05:36,920 --> 02:05:39,760
Speaker 1: your RB niggas gotta stop. But but no, no, he

1808
02:05:39,920 --> 02:05:42,200
Speaker 1: just wanted. He just won an award for Best Hip

1809
02:05:42,240 --> 02:05:49,800
Speaker 1: Hop New Artists. Wow, which validates my point. Now what

1810
02:05:50,040 --> 02:05:58,040
Speaker 1: was your point? He's not the King of Army's not

1811
02:05:58,120 --> 02:06:00,200
Speaker 1: the new king of R and B. I love him.

1812
02:06:00,920 --> 02:06:05,280
Speaker 1: I love his work. I buy his work, which which

1813
02:06:05,360 --> 02:06:07,560
Speaker 1: even goes even further. So you feel like he's more

1814
02:06:07,600 --> 02:06:10,640
Speaker 1: of a rapper. I feel like he's a hybrid. He's

1815
02:06:10,680 --> 02:06:21,160
Speaker 1: the he's the evolution. He's not. I think he's he's

1816
02:06:21,200 --> 02:06:24,360
Speaker 1: a hybrid. He's a new evolution of of everything that

1817
02:06:24,480 --> 02:06:28,400
Speaker 1: we've that we've done, and there is no category for him.

1818
02:06:29,280 --> 02:06:31,720
Speaker 1: There's no category at the Grammys or the Soul Trained

1819
02:06:31,840 --> 02:06:35,080
Speaker 1: or at the BT. They haven't created the category that

1820
02:06:35,680 --> 02:06:39,320
Speaker 1: that that speaks to what he and so many of

1821
02:06:39,400 --> 02:06:45,680
Speaker 1: these new artists do. They do everything. So while I'm

1822
02:06:45,800 --> 02:06:51,920
Speaker 1: celebrating him, which he doesn't realize because he's catching so

1823
02:06:52,080 --> 02:06:57,080
Speaker 1: much flak from whatever side. My straw was the straw

1824
02:06:57,160 --> 02:06:59,080
Speaker 1: that broke the camel's back and he felt the need

1825
02:06:59,160 --> 02:07:02,480
Speaker 1: to come at me. So you feel like because a

1826
02:07:02,560 --> 02:07:04,440
Speaker 1: lot of the times in hip hop, we go through

1827
02:07:04,480 --> 02:07:08,800
Speaker 1: this a lot um. First, I'm so happy to be here.

1828
02:07:09,280 --> 02:07:15,560
Speaker 1: Thank you for appreciate when I say that. But the

1829
02:07:15,720 --> 02:07:18,120
Speaker 1: hip hop there's so many stories of O G s

1830
02:07:18,200 --> 02:07:22,720
Speaker 1: not really accepting the young people. Are you thinking this?

1831
02:07:23,040 --> 02:07:26,320
Speaker 1: Is that the way it came off? I hit him.

1832
02:07:27,280 --> 02:07:30,640
Speaker 1: Here's how it started. Okay, First we he connected slightly.

1833
02:07:30,960 --> 02:07:33,120
Speaker 1: And then where at our R and B money runs,

1834
02:07:33,160 --> 02:07:36,000
Speaker 1: my bro j J runts and he comes over to

1835
02:07:36,080 --> 02:07:40,360
Speaker 1: me and said, O G, let's get something. Let's get something, okay.

1836
02:07:40,440 --> 02:07:43,080
Speaker 1: And so I said, I got the perfect record, and

1837
02:07:43,160 --> 02:07:45,600
Speaker 1: I'm like, he said, send it to me. I sent

1838
02:07:45,680 --> 02:07:48,520
Speaker 1: it to him, and I'm like, what you think because

1839
02:07:49,360 --> 02:07:51,920
Speaker 1: I'm open for criticism if you ain't working with it.

1840
02:07:52,520 --> 02:07:56,200
Speaker 1: I sent Drake three records before he said, that's the one, right,

1841
02:07:56,640 --> 02:07:59,520
Speaker 1: you ain't working with it. I'm I got tough skin

1842
02:08:00,040 --> 02:08:05,040
Speaker 1: me that game too. By the way, keep going, keeping

1843
02:08:05,880 --> 02:08:12,240
Speaker 1: so fantastic because I love it. So at any point

1844
02:08:12,240 --> 02:08:14,480
Speaker 1: you couldn't said, oh gee, that's not the one, send

1845
02:08:14,560 --> 02:08:18,760
Speaker 1: me something else. Okay. He never did that. Hit him again,

1846
02:08:19,080 --> 02:08:23,360
Speaker 1: talk to me baby, nothing. At this point, I'm like,

1847
02:08:23,800 --> 02:08:26,880
Speaker 1: got it, and I text him back. I'm like, listen, bro,

1848
02:08:27,240 --> 02:08:30,200
Speaker 1: in this business, you've got two things. Your gift in

1849
02:08:30,280 --> 02:08:35,720
Speaker 1: your word honorable. At any point you can tell me O,

1850
02:08:35,960 --> 02:08:38,720
Speaker 1: g I ain't feeling it, or I ain't even fucking

1851
02:08:38,760 --> 02:08:41,640
Speaker 1: with you right now, give me a second. Good luck.

1852
02:08:42,200 --> 02:08:45,360
Speaker 1: I can take all of that, but the radio silence,

1853
02:08:46,160 --> 02:08:49,760
Speaker 1: that's the Hollywood ship, which I'm like, don't do that.

1854
02:08:50,000 --> 02:08:53,240
Speaker 1: And we all been through that very easy, and I'm

1855
02:08:53,280 --> 02:08:55,000
Speaker 1: telling him not to do that because I just know

1856
02:08:55,120 --> 02:08:57,600
Speaker 1: what it is, and and you would, you being the

1857
02:08:57,680 --> 02:09:03,040
Speaker 1: elder artist, you know exactly. I know exactly what that means.

1858
02:09:03,200 --> 02:09:06,280
Speaker 1: You don't, And I'm telling him with me, you don't

1859
02:09:06,320 --> 02:09:08,640
Speaker 1: have to do that. I said, but in the future,

1860
02:09:08,960 --> 02:09:12,520
Speaker 1: just make your word your bond. If you fucking still

1861
02:09:12,640 --> 02:09:17,280
Speaker 1: and if not, say so, it's gonna get you so

1862
02:09:17,600 --> 02:09:21,800
Speaker 1: far in this business. And so that was my only

1863
02:09:22,480 --> 02:09:24,840
Speaker 1: message to him, not that I'm mad at you for

1864
02:09:24,960 --> 02:09:28,240
Speaker 1: not getting on my record, because well, but people again

1865
02:09:28,320 --> 02:09:31,240
Speaker 1: don't understand, is that I don't need people on my record.

1866
02:09:31,840 --> 02:09:35,080
Speaker 1: I'm a hundred percenter. My last two number ones were

1867
02:09:35,200 --> 02:09:41,040
Speaker 1: me a hundred percent written produced saying it's me, It's me.

1868
02:09:41,120 --> 02:09:45,360
Speaker 1: I don't need anybody, but I love collaborating. That's fire.

1869
02:09:45,720 --> 02:09:49,160
Speaker 1: I love going to to to Chris Brown studio and

1870
02:09:49,280 --> 02:09:52,000
Speaker 1: hearing a hundred songs in a row and being like

1871
02:09:52,120 --> 02:09:56,440
Speaker 1: this nigga is cold shit. I gotta get there like.

1872
02:09:56,640 --> 02:10:03,840
Speaker 1: I love that. But the respect from elder to the

1873
02:10:03,920 --> 02:10:09,480
Speaker 1: new generation there there is a divide, and we gotta

1874
02:10:09,560 --> 02:10:12,600
Speaker 1: figure out how to fix that, because I only want

1875
02:10:12,680 --> 02:10:16,160
Speaker 1: what's the best for the new generation. You know what

1876
02:10:16,200 --> 02:10:19,520
Speaker 1: I'm saying, whether it be money long, whether it be

1877
02:10:20,360 --> 02:10:23,400
Speaker 1: whoever it is, whether it be Jock Quins, whether there's

1878
02:10:23,480 --> 02:10:26,520
Speaker 1: power in numbers. I understand you want to go out

1879
02:10:26,560 --> 02:10:32,840
Speaker 1: on tour by yourself and build your heart ticket, you know,

1880
02:10:33,360 --> 02:10:40,760
Speaker 1: build your heart screen necessary five six R and B

1881
02:10:40,920 --> 02:10:47,360
Speaker 1: as on one tour. It's necessary. Of course. I'm a

1882
02:10:47,480 --> 02:10:53,200
Speaker 1: close two years in. If you want to close, I'll

1883
02:10:53,240 --> 02:10:54,680
Speaker 1: let you. I'll let you try it for at night.

1884
02:10:55,320 --> 02:10:57,400
Speaker 1: But it's gonna be heavy. Once I take these clothes off,

1885
02:10:57,560 --> 02:11:04,120
Speaker 1: it's gonna get different. But I'm always preaching numbers because

1886
02:11:04,200 --> 02:11:07,040
Speaker 1: that's how you guys did it. You guys did it

1887
02:11:07,120 --> 02:11:09,840
Speaker 1: with numbers, because guess what you would do. You would

1888
02:11:09,880 --> 02:11:12,480
Speaker 1: get in the room, you would smoke that fucking weed.

1889
02:11:13,400 --> 02:11:16,800
Speaker 1: It's legal. I got a medical card on, you would

1890
02:11:16,800 --> 02:11:21,440
Speaker 1: smoke that medicinal weed, you would drink that liquor, and

1891
02:11:21,600 --> 02:11:27,080
Speaker 1: you would come to an agreement. We don't have weed

1892
02:11:27,280 --> 02:11:31,120
Speaker 1: and liquor in common. R and B guys only have

1893
02:11:31,360 --> 02:11:34,800
Speaker 1: women in common, and we're always trying to be one up.

1894
02:11:36,240 --> 02:11:38,840
Speaker 1: So let me ask you how long you've been married?

1895
02:11:39,920 --> 02:11:44,560
Speaker 1: Three years? Okay, so I'm not talking about this. You

1896
02:11:44,600 --> 02:11:50,080
Speaker 1: can talk whatever I'm talk about. When you use a home. Okay,

1897
02:11:52,920 --> 02:12:00,320
Speaker 1: let him talk talk because I need to imagine the

1898
02:12:00,440 --> 02:12:05,320
Speaker 1: difference between R and B bussy, bussy or pussy. He

1899
02:12:07,040 --> 02:12:13,040
Speaker 1: just buzzy, he said, Pete, it's a pee because dank,

1900
02:12:13,120 --> 02:12:16,880
Speaker 1: I could just imagine how the tours was when you

1901
02:12:16,960 --> 02:12:19,000
Speaker 1: were single. Obviously, because we want to respect wife. I

1902
02:12:19,080 --> 02:12:20,440
Speaker 1: got my wing on, you got your ring on. We

02:13:43,200 --> 02:13:49,920
Speaker 1: you're different. Before I get to a city, I'll equated to.

1919
02:13:50,000 --> 02:13:51,480
Speaker 1: Now I do the numbers. For now. There are three

1920
02:13:51,560 --> 02:13:56,040
Speaker 1: to five there's three to five thousand women who are

1921
02:13:56,160 --> 02:14:01,280
Speaker 1: preparing themselves for tank to come in town. They got

1922
02:14:01,360 --> 02:14:07,720
Speaker 1: they got their wave caps. Maybe DA's Greece. Maybe you

1923
02:14:07,800 --> 02:14:10,720
Speaker 1: know when they're getting their nails done. They know when

1924
02:14:10,800 --> 02:14:14,280
Speaker 1: they're getting their hair done. The y'all fit has been purchased,

1925
02:14:16,160 --> 02:14:23,520
Speaker 1: The nails have been manicured and pedicured. The monkey has

1926
02:14:23,600 --> 02:14:28,200
Speaker 1: been either is either hairless or has a landing strip.

1927
02:14:29,120 --> 02:14:33,280
Speaker 1: Landing strip. Not because I'm gonna get to him, just

1928
02:14:33,520 --> 02:14:37,240
Speaker 1: because I'm into preparation for it all. They could get

1929
02:14:37,400 --> 02:14:41,400
Speaker 1: lucky with anybody. Don't got to beat me. But R

1930
02:14:41,480 --> 02:14:44,720
Speaker 1: and B dictates that at some point you're gonna get

1931
02:14:44,800 --> 02:14:51,120
Speaker 1: touched up. I'm trying to hold back my clap now

1932
02:14:52,080 --> 02:14:56,520
Speaker 1: imagined that all of that energy is really for me.

1933
02:14:59,800 --> 02:15:06,720

2238
02:40:01,120 --> 02:40:05,320
Speaker 1: I got a million miles before I beat him. He's

2239
02:40:05,360 --> 02:40:07,280
Speaker 1: the bar okay, none of he's on the niggas fun

2240

02:40:12,080 --> 02:40:14,080
Speaker 1: think is right in R Kelly and jail right now?

2242
02:40:14,200 --> 02:40:18,400
Speaker 1: Like from R and B people A bunch a bunch,

2243
02:40:18,800 --> 02:40:21,720
Speaker 1: So no one really cut him off in ya world.

2244
02:40:23,520 --> 02:40:27,680
Speaker 1: I separated myself because he wasn't a friend of mine,

2245
02:40:28,800 --> 02:40:30,840
Speaker 1: be honest, and once you beat him in ball, he

2246
02:40:30,879 --> 02:40:34,560
Speaker 1: didn't like you. He's not earlier. He wasn't a friend

2247
02:40:34,640 --> 02:40:37,280
Speaker 1: and manager manager wanted to beat him every time. Every time.

2248
02:40:38,720 --> 02:40:41,400
Speaker 1: I wanted him to be a friend of mine. But

2249
02:40:42,480 --> 02:40:46,119
Speaker 1: because R. Kelly was R Kelly, he was the tip

2250
02:40:46,160 --> 02:40:48,400
Speaker 1: of the food chain, so he was like anything beneath

2251
02:40:48,440 --> 02:40:50,560
Speaker 1: me is beneath me. He really wasn't a nice guy,

2252
02:40:51,520 --> 02:40:54,160
Speaker 1: so he didn't sunk with me, but he foke with me.

2253
02:40:54,920 --> 02:40:56,280
Speaker 1: He foke with me because he knew what I was.

2254
02:40:57,120 --> 02:41:00,040
Speaker 1: But I'm not gonna give it to you, nigga that

2255
02:41:00,160 --> 02:41:06,240
Speaker 1: I earned it. Nigga old school wasn't that guy, and

2256
02:41:06,320 --> 02:41:09,120
Speaker 1: I respect him for it because I didn't want it

2257
02:41:09,320 --> 02:41:14,200
Speaker 1: given to me. Of course we all do. I wanted

2258
02:41:14,240 --> 02:41:16,840
Speaker 1: to beat you, nigga. I didn't get a chance to

2259
02:41:16,879 --> 02:41:21,880
Speaker 1: beat R. Kelly. Fans call me King, fans call me

2260
02:41:22,000 --> 02:41:25,520
Speaker 1: all sorts of names. I didn't get to beat the guy.

2261
02:41:26,640 --> 02:41:30,920
Speaker 1: I didn't get to beat R. Kelly. He beat a

2262
02:41:31,000 --> 02:41:33,040
Speaker 1: lot of ship right now, how did you get to

2263

2264
02:41:39,959 --> 02:41:43,640
Speaker 1: was That was the headline of the arena tour. It

2265
02:41:43,800 --> 02:41:49,640
Speaker 1: was him. I didn't get to beat him, so I can't.

2266
02:41:53,080 --> 02:41:56,039
Speaker 1: I can't assume a title. I can't. I'm the General

2267
02:41:56,160 --> 02:41:59,520
Speaker 1: of R and B. That's the title was given. That's

2268
02:42:00,360 --> 02:42:03,840
Speaker 1: I'm in the filipedia. Then your nickname says the general.

2269
02:42:04,120 --> 02:42:07,680
Speaker 1: I'm in the field to sit on their thrones and

2270
02:42:07,840 --> 02:42:11,000
Speaker 1: watch people do battle. I'm in the field. But by

2271
02:42:11,040 --> 02:42:15,720
Speaker 1: the way, there's very few people who worked with Aliyah

2272
02:42:16,040 --> 02:42:26,520
Speaker 1: and R. Kelly. Listen, I'll say this Aaliyah gave me

2273
02:42:26,640 --> 02:42:31,480
Speaker 1: all the confidence I needed to step into this thing

2274
02:42:31,640 --> 02:42:35,080
Speaker 1: called R and B. Because before that I was just

2275
02:42:35,200 --> 02:42:40,600
Speaker 1: a church kid, singing church music and singing church and

2276
02:42:40,640 --> 02:42:42,640
Speaker 1: that wrong with being nothing wrong with it. But I

2277
02:42:42,800 --> 02:42:48,120
Speaker 1: wasn't ready you're a I was green. Aliah told me

2278
02:42:48,280 --> 02:42:56,000
Speaker 1: you're ready, You're ready for this ship, and like nothing

2279
02:42:56,280 --> 02:43:07,320
Speaker 1: valid Okay, get my a shot ready. Nothing validates you

2280
02:43:08,680 --> 02:43:16,160
Speaker 1: more than a woman real. When Aliah says you're that guy,

2281
02:43:17,480 --> 02:43:21,880
Speaker 1: all right, that makes all the difference in the world.

2282
02:43:24,520 --> 02:43:29,560
Speaker 1: Nothing trumps that. And when she said that to me,

2283
02:43:30,280 --> 02:43:36,320
Speaker 1: I tuck it and I ran with it. I said,

2284
02:43:36,520 --> 02:43:40,280
Speaker 1: Leah said it, so keep none of y'all funk with me.

2285
02:43:41,160 --> 02:43:44,520
