And so you know, looking 922 00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:49,000 Speaker 5: at where I have Revolt and where Revolt is at 923 00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:51,560 Speaker 5: now is like one of the most profitable networks that 924 00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:53,840 Speaker 5: are that are out there. We was able to pass, 925 00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:56,880 Speaker 5: you know, as far as our digital footprint, you know, 926 00:40:57,080 --> 00:40:59,319 Speaker 5: past complex that was a big thing for us. When 927 00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:02,239 Speaker 5: we started, we didn't really own our own culture, and 928 00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:05,799 Speaker 5: so now Revolt has really stepped into that, you know, 929 00:41:05,880 --> 00:41:08,360 Speaker 5: to that position. So I was looking at BT and 930 00:41:08,440 --> 00:41:10,640 Speaker 5: after when you're looking at buying a company, you got 931 00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:13,120 Speaker 5: to do your due diligence to see if it if 932 00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:16,400 Speaker 5: it fits your strategy, and so even before they decided 933 00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:18,279 Speaker 5: not to sell it, it didn't make sense to me. 934 00:41:18,719 --> 00:41:20,920 Speaker 5: So I basically had told them before that, but I 935 00:41:20,920 --> 00:41:23,120 Speaker 5: didn't make an announcement about it because it really wasn't 936 00:41:23,120 --> 00:41:27,120 Speaker 5: about that, you know, So you know, I'm looking at 937 00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:29,759 Speaker 5: I mean exactly, but but I had to look and 938 00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:33,319 Speaker 5: see the possibilities because BT is one of the most 939 00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:38,160 Speaker 5: profitable companies because we only get one percent of advertising dollars. 940 00:41:38,280 --> 00:41:41,440 Speaker 5: People don't know how crazy like like like like like 941 00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:44,520 Speaker 5: people know how bad we get treated as people of color. 942 00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:47,360 Speaker 2: But it's like, I don't think we really faced. 943 00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:51,600 Speaker 5: The reality about the the that that that that we 944 00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:53,840 Speaker 5: had more wealth when we was like slaves than we 945 00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:54,359 Speaker 5: have now. 946 00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:56,440 Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, Like this is a reality. 947 00:41:56,480 --> 00:41:57,399 Speaker 2: The numbers don't lie. 948 00:41:57,400 --> 00:42:00,800 Speaker 5: And so when you b ET gets a agel portrait 949 00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:03,080 Speaker 5: of black advertising dollars because they only give us one 950 00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:04,920 Speaker 5: percent because that's what we accept. 951 00:42:05,280 --> 00:42:05,920 Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. 952 00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:08,600 Speaker 5: So Revolt is definitely coming out here to change your tone, 953 00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:11,640 Speaker 5: and I felt like combining the forces I could change 954 00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:13,880 Speaker 5: the tone.

Like even 1376 01:01:53,680 --> 01:01:55,480 Speaker 5: when I did the R and B Is Dead, it 1377 01:01:55,640 --> 01:01:58,480 Speaker 5: was just too to make sure that people we we 1378 01:01:58,600 --> 01:02:01,439 Speaker 5: got a perspective that R and B and hip hop 1379 01:02:01,480 --> 01:02:04,439 Speaker 5: are two different things. It's like we may look the same, 1380 01:02:04,560 --> 01:02:07,200 Speaker 5: but that didn't mean it be the same. R and 1381 01:02:07,360 --> 01:02:10,480 Speaker 5: B is like baseball. Hip hop is like soccer. It's 1382 01:02:10,560 --> 01:02:13,240 Speaker 5: not the same thing. It shouldn't be competing. It's not 1383 01:02:13,400 --> 01:02:16,960 Speaker 5: the same, you know, frequency, And so it limits the 1384 01:02:17,360 --> 01:02:20,400 Speaker 5: success of younger hip hop artists if they got to 1385 01:02:20,440 --> 01:02:23,600 Speaker 5: compete against I mean younger R and B artists. I'm 1386 01:02:23,640 --> 01:02:26,920 Speaker 5: sorry if they have to compete almost against in like 1387 01:02:27,000 --> 01:02:31,000 Speaker 5: a divide and conquer soulful musical situation. 1388 01:02:30,680 --> 01:02:33,040 Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. So us coming together is 1389 01:02:33,040 --> 01:02:35,320 Speaker 2: gonna really shine light on light boom. This is R 1390 01:02:35,360 --> 01:02:35,560 Speaker 2: and B. 1391 01:02:35,680 --> 01:02:38,120 Speaker 5: We're our own category, you know what I'm saying. This 1392 01:02:38,280 --> 01:02:40,840 Speaker 5: is hip hop, they're their own category. We respect what 1393 01:02:40,920 --> 01:02:44,240 Speaker 5: each other does, but it's different. Yes, we're part of 1394 01:02:44,280 --> 01:02:48,720 Speaker 5: the same lifestyle or culture, you know. But this album, 1395 01:02:48,760 --> 01:02:51,080 Speaker 5: I think, with the Unity, is going to really make 1396 01:02:51,240 --> 01:02:51,920 Speaker 5: that clear. 1397 01:02:52,480 --> 01:02:55,120 Speaker 3: You know, I love I love the music. I love 1398 01:02:55,160 --> 01:02:57,720 Speaker 3: what you're doing with business. But the one thing I 1399 01:02:57,800 --> 01:03:00,360 Speaker 3: respect about you the most is how you all with 1400 01:03:00,440 --> 01:03:04,360 Speaker 3: your kids. Because that's the balance with this industry and 1401 01:03:04,560 --> 01:03:07,120 Speaker 3: most industries, right is you want to work hard, you 1402 01:03:07,160 --> 01:03:08,680 Speaker 3: want to get that check right because you want to 1403 01:03:08,680 --> 01:03:10,280 Speaker 3: support You want to make sure your kids have things 1404 01:03:10,320 --> 01:03:12,280 Speaker 3: that you didn't have.
