So you can't listen to the Charlamagne of 215 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:23,480 Speaker 4: the world, you know what I'm saying, like, you know, say, 216 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:25,360 Speaker 4: because if you do, then you won't. You know what 217 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:27,079 Speaker 4: I'm saying. You want level up, right, you know what 218 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 4: I'm saying. You know what I'm saying. 219 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 3: So, but do you like the independent route because everything 220 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 3: longer label, it's no longer label, pushing the record. 221 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:38,559 Speaker 2: You gotta love it. Kiss baby, shake hands, you got 222 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 2: to do all that. 223 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 4: No, it's amazing. Listen now, it's a grind. Like I said, 224 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 4: I'm ground like it's a two thousand, like we out sad, 225 00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:48,200 Speaker 4: like I go from the stage to the classroom to 226 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 4: the football field to support Russ to be here this 227 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,280 Speaker 4: morning with you guys, and then I hit my son's 228 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:57,000 Speaker 4: teacher up to talk about his Spanish exam thing he 229 00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:00,200 Speaker 4: has to do. Like it's NonStop. But I love the 230 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:02,840 Speaker 4: independent route because one is nothing better than only your 231 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 4: master's right, there's nothing better than ownership. Like you think 232 00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 4: about the math of what it is for us as artists, 233 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:10,320 Speaker 4: it is hard to do the traditional route for a 234 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:12,600 Speaker 4: long time. It's to me it's not sustainable for long 235 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 4: term you know purposes, So mathematically it's definitely much better. 236 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 4: But I love that when I have an idea, I 237 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 4: can activate on it when I want you how I 238 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 4: want to, and I may not get it right, I 239 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:27,560 Speaker 4: may swing, I may fail, but I like my batting average, 240 00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:30,120 Speaker 4: you know, being able to do it my way. And 241 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 4: I've been very fortunate that over the years, even when 242 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:36,120 Speaker 4: I signed a major's all my big moments, I was like, 243 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 4: this is the moment, Like I've always been that voice. 244 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 4: I've always betted on myself, But now I get to 245 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 4: read my full benefits of when I do take that 246 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 4: big risk and make that big bet. So I like 247 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 4: it this way. It's like I said, it's not easy, 248 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:50,320 Speaker 4: but it's it's a good feeling though. I feel in 249 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:53,200 Speaker 4: power like more than ever in my life. And also too, 250 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:56,080 Speaker 4: you know, like where there's sinc opportunities like Level Up 251 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 4: is a song that keeps on giving. It's almost three 252 00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 4: times platinum. How many billion streams of that song alone. 253 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:04,000 Speaker 4: I say it's a gift that keeps on giving because 254 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 4: I get these unique sync opportunities that just don't stop. 255 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:10,800 Speaker 4: And I don't have to go through these channels for approval. 256 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:13,320 Speaker 4: I don't have to like get someone's like, you know, 257 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:14,240 Speaker 4: is this okay? 258 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 2: Is it not? 259 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 4: It's like no, I like it. I want to do it. 260 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 4: Let's do it, you know, and so it's it's a 261 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 4: great feeling. 262 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 7: I was on drugs and alcohol and retarded and a 263 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:34,239 Speaker 7: little bit ugly, like. 264 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 4: He might have slipped a little something this morning. 265 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:38,480 Speaker 8: Coming in hat, I saw the story that you told 266 00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:41,680 Speaker 8: and Forbes about the CEO from the label that you 267 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:44,679 Speaker 8: left to become independent. Yeah, you didn't really feel he 268 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:47,440 Speaker 8: wasn't really caring for you. You're trying to drop music. Yeah, 269 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 8: has that CEO ever reached out to you now that 270 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:52,960 Speaker 8: the story is out there and it's the success after 271 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:55,120 Speaker 8: leaving the label and been like I apologize. 272 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 4: So I ran into him shortly after level up, like 273 00:11:58,000 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 4: took off. 274 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:00,840 Speaker 9: Yeah that was a song level up, so his level up. 275 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:03,720 Speaker 4: And you know, I ran into him shortly after and 276 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 4: he was lost for words. And it's funny because I 277 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:08,559 Speaker 4: almost didn't recognize him, Like I was so like in 278 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:10,320 Speaker 4: my zone. I didn't even realize who I was looking 279 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 4: at because my period that I met with him was short, 280 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 4: Like he was a new CEO that just come in 281 00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:16,640 Speaker 4: and he was like, you know, trying to put the 282 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 4: plants together, and I had to talk with him, share 283 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 4: my ideas, see if he's gonna like it, like try 284 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:24,600 Speaker 4: to convince him, and he literally looked at me like eh, 285 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 4: and I was like okay, and that motivated me. So 286 00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:29,880 Speaker 4: when I saw him, his face wasn't the most familiar 287 00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 4: for me because I was already like it was just 288 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 4: you know, I was where I was at, you know, mentally, 289 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:37,839 Speaker 4: but he was lost for words. So that said a lot, 290 00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 4: you know, but. 291 00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 8: It was crazy because you were a si era at 292 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,840 Speaker 8: that point, like even like that, that's like such a 293 00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 8: sign of disrespect, Like. 294 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:47,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know that happens though. You know, the music 295 00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:50,640 Speaker 4: industry is you know, it's not it's not cut for 296 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:53,199 Speaker 4: the week, you know, And that's what comes with it, Right, 297 00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:54,880 Speaker 4: you're gonna be toltd. No, I've been told to know 298 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:57,160 Speaker 4: a lot more a lot of times. You know, I'm 299 00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,360 Speaker 4: not gonna say a lot more than yes, but at 300 00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:01,440 Speaker 4: one point, especially, you know, you hear a lot of no's, 301 00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:04,720 Speaker 4: but it motivates you. And no matter how successful you are, 302 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 4: you're still gonna hear someone say no or you can't. 303 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:10,240 Speaker 4: Like that's just what comes with that. I don't know 304 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:14,920 Speaker 4: one great that I have admired that hasn't been told 305 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,840 Speaker 4: they can or hasn't been chopped down by the world 306 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:20,440 Speaker 4: or hasn't been said like you know, like they can't. 307 00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 4: I don't know one great that hasn't experienced that. So 308 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:25,120 Speaker 4: if you think about it, it's just like the path 309 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 4: to success, like you're gonna be told no along the way, 310 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:30,680 Speaker 4: you're gonna be told you can't. You know, That's why 311 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 4: you have game changes that make things become possible that 312 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:36,200 Speaker 4: they said weren't because you believe in yourself. So it 313 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 4: all comes back to me simply believing in you and 314 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 4: we all have to find that like within ourselves, Like 315 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:44,960 Speaker 4: whatever path you're on, you all have to tap into that. 316 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:47,680 Speaker 4: No matter how successful or you find your way, we 317 00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:48,720 Speaker 4: all can relate to that. 318 00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:50,480 Speaker 3: You feel like you slept on because of that, like 319 00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:53,200 Speaker 3: that people say no or they don't believe right away. 320 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:54,439 Speaker 2: Or you have to fight through. Do you feel like 321 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 2: they always sleep on CC? 322 00:13:57,080 --> 00:14:00,400 Speaker 4: You know, I think listen are what what I say? 323 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:05,439 Speaker 4: There's times, yeah, but I don't really worry about that, 324 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 4: you know. I just I like what I've been doing 325 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:13,840 Speaker 4: and what I'm doing, and I'm happy with that. The 326 00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:16,120 Speaker 4: most important for me, The most important thing for me 327 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:17,920 Speaker 4: is that when it's all said and done, like do 328 00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 4: I have my sanity, Like do I know who I am? 329 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,520 Speaker 4: Like you know, I think sometimes you can be chasing 330 00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:25,600 Speaker 4: a certain level of success and you may get there, 331 00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 4: you may not get there. But like, what is your 332 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:31,800 Speaker 4: definition of success? What is your definition of wealth? Mine 333 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 4: is health, Mine is my joy, Mine is my sanity, 334 00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:39,160 Speaker 4: Mine is like you know, I like living life in 335 00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 4: the most least chaotic way possible.

It's different, you know, 508 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:52,440 Speaker 4: But I don't doesn't. 509 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:54,960 Speaker 2: Bother him because I feel like he gets it. Because 510 00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:56,240 Speaker 2: he takes care of his wife. 511 00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:59,080 Speaker 7: And we've had conversations up here as men saying like, 512 00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:02,200 Speaker 7: I don't understand why why he gets called a simple. 513 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:05,280 Speaker 4: Well, I think it depends on who Wait wait, wait, wait, 514 00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:14,080 Speaker 4: who's the man saying it. I'm not gonna go down 515 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:17,480 Speaker 4: a specific lane because I'm just saying, who's the man 516 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:20,040 Speaker 4: saying it? Right? It's like someone saying a person doesn't 517 00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 4: love someone, But have you ever loved someone? 518 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:22,360 Speaker 5: Right? 519 00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:24,000 Speaker 4: Have you ever been loved? 520 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:24,240 Speaker 5: Right? 521 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:27,160 Speaker 4: So sometimes people to me speak out of pocket because 522 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:30,359 Speaker 4: they just don't know. So for me, it's versus being 523 00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:32,879 Speaker 4: mad about it, just like God bless them, you know, 524 00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:38,359 Speaker 4: like you know, God bless them, you know what I'm saying, Like, so, yeah. 525 00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:39,959 Speaker 5: Because it's obviously something that they're lacking. 526 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:42,200 Speaker 4: It's just, you know, everyone again, everyone's in toies to 527 00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:44,679 Speaker 4: their opinion. But it's like, you don't. We don't have 528 00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:46,199 Speaker 4: to live. I don't have to live my life to 529 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:50,040 Speaker 4: prove anything to anybody, right, And so I think, you know, 530 00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:52,680 Speaker 4: sometimes two people have a perspective just because of how 531 00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:55,639 Speaker 4: they see life, and that just may be their way. 532 00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:58,400 Speaker 4: But you know, to me, too bad for them if 533 00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:00,520 Speaker 4: they want to live life or so and wait and 534 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:03,320 Speaker 4: love people a certain way. Too bad for them. 535 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:05,320 Speaker 3: Atlanta wants to come out of you like one time, 536 00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 3: like the Atlanta just say yo, suck from the back 537 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:07,480 Speaker 3: like that. 538 00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:12,240 Speaker 1: New York. That's a good time. 539 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:19,960 Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, you were silly. Let me tell you. 540 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 4: Do I want to say stuff sometimes? Absolutely? But is 541 00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:26,199 Speaker 4: it worth it? No what Michelle say when they go? 542 00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:31,600 Speaker 4: We go? Yeah, but is it really worth the breath? 543 00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:34,920 Speaker 4: Like you think? I think about how many people I've 544 00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:37,960 Speaker 4: seen come and I've seen go when I leave it there. 545 00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:39,879 Speaker 1: So so you're telling me, yeah, I gotta prayer. But 546 00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:40,640 Speaker 1: she don't got a curse. 547 00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:48,080 Speaker 4: She don't got a curse. No, but will she curse? Yeah? Yeah, 548 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:50,080 Speaker 4: you know, pull up on me a certain way, I 549 00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:54,400 Speaker 4: might pop out. But no, no, no, no, no, Honestly, I don't know, man, 550 00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:57,320 Speaker 4: I don't know. I just or how I'm trying to 551 00:24:57,359 --> 00:25:02,840 Speaker 4: live my life. It doesn't have space for like a negativity. 552 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:06,000 Speaker 4: It just doesn't like you cannot like if you're trying 553 00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:09,359 Speaker 4: to go to a certain height and climb certain mountains 554 00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:12,600 Speaker 4: like that stuff is like down there, you know what 555 00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:16,280 Speaker 4: I'm saying, Like it's like I cannot if I choose 556 00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:19,360 Speaker 4: to entertain those things, and I'm taking away time from 557 00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:22,560 Speaker 4: myself going where I really want to get to, Like 558 00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:26,000 Speaker 4: so why would I do it? And then also wisdom 559 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 4: has showed me like you ain't gotta respond. People respond 560 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 4: for you, Like just watch those that have things to 561 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 4: say about you, just watch it, like they will respond. 562 00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:39,360 Speaker 4: They'll they'll respond for you. They'll do it to themselves. 563 00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:40,680 Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying. 564 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 8: I was gonna say, I saw that a lot people 565 00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:45,120 Speaker 8: are responding for you and taking up for you. 566 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:45,440 Speaker 9: Guys. 567 00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:47,879 Speaker 8: When people were having a debate about rust being a 568 00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:50,159 Speaker 8: stepdad or not, like early on, and people were like 569 00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:51,720 Speaker 8: why is that an issue? 570 00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:53,879 Speaker 9: Like why is their family united issue? 571 00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:56,320 Speaker 8: For you? A lot of people had that conversation. Yea, 572 00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:57,879 Speaker 8: And you say quiet the whole time you handle that. 573 00:25:58,119 --> 00:25:59,920 Speaker 4: You ain't got to talk about that. You know, there's 574 00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:03,159 Speaker 4: beauty and love. It all comes back to love. I 575 00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:05,800 Speaker 4: think people when they talk about that type of stuff, 576 00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 4: they forget about what matters the most in the situation. 577 00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:12,959 Speaker 4: It's the child, right, It's not about the adult conversation 578 00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:15,919 Speaker 4: of it. All is the child being loved how they 579 00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:19,439 Speaker 4: should be loved. That's all that matters, right, And I 580 00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:22,200 Speaker 4: think that obviously, I know, like the beauty and a 581 00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:26,600 Speaker 4: blended family, right, there's no greater feeling than my kids 582 00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:30,440 Speaker 4: all feeling together and waking up and feeling loved the same, 583 00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:34,440 Speaker 4: all them feeling loved the same. That is a blessing, 584 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:37,240 Speaker 4: you know. So, and I think that every child deserves 585 00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:39,520 Speaker 4: to feel, you know, that kind of love that I 586 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:41,679 Speaker 4: get to see my kids have, you know. And so 587 00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:44,280 Speaker 4: you know, I think when things are new to people, 588 00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:48,399 Speaker 4: it just creates great conversation. But sometimes conversation is great, 589 00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:52,359 Speaker 4: you know, because sometimes conversation also opens up things for 590 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:54,840 Speaker 4: people to really talk about things that they probably wouldn't 591 00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 4: talk about, right. You know, maybe, like I said, at 592 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,480 Speaker 4: my time when I was a single mom, I think 593 00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:02,399 Speaker 4: a lot of women were able to see my journey 594 00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:04,320 Speaker 4: to be able to be like, you know, just me 595 00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:06,560 Speaker 4: finding my way as a woman, right, And I thank 596 00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:08,480 Speaker 4: God that He's blessed me with this special love that 597 00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:12,359 Speaker 4: I have. But I think there's like again it goes 598 00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:15,119 Speaker 4: back to like why do I have this platform? 599 00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:15,400 Speaker 5: Right? 600 00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:17,640 Speaker 4: It's like if I can inspire someone in any kind 601 00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:20,480 Speaker 4: of way, like that to me is success, right, And 602 00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:22,440 Speaker 4: so I think oftentimes you don't know what that's like 603 00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:24,879 Speaker 4: until you're in that position, right and you're like, oh, 604 00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:27,480 Speaker 4: this is my life, Like, okay, let me figure this out. 605 00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:30,560 Speaker 4: But I mean it's a gift when you know, I 606 00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:33,720 Speaker 4: think women can know, like life doesn't stop at a 607 00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:37,439 Speaker 4: situation for you, right, you know, life can't evolve and 608 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:40,000 Speaker 4: grow how you want it to. And as it relates 609 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:43,760 Speaker 4: to families and men, right, there's a difference between boys 610 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:48,920 Speaker 4: and men, okay, And to me, men love a certain way. 611 00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:51,119 Speaker 4: They have a certain standard of how they love and 612 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 4: choose to love and do things, you know, And I 613 00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:56,399 Speaker 4: feel blessed that when I look at my husband, that 614 00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:59,680 Speaker 4: standard is like it's top tier, right, It's like my 615 00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:02,479 Speaker 4: dad's love. Right, that's the truest love I've known from 616 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:05,480 Speaker 4: a man, you know, And so to see that is 617 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:07,600 Speaker 4: such a blessing. But I love that my kids when 618 00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:10,399 Speaker 4: they look up at each other and you know, future 619 00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:13,120 Speaker 4: out him, Him and a Mora are like our baby girl, 620 00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:16,879 Speaker 4: Like he's the sweetest with her Ena, And just how 621 00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:19,480 Speaker 4: when and how they all interact with each other's love, 622 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:23,920 Speaker 4: that's all that matters. Right. So conversation is good though 623 00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:27,040 Speaker 4: sometimes it opens up things and hopefully it helps others. 624 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:28,560 Speaker 1: Well, I would like to say, that is the most 625 00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:29,720 Speaker 1: perfect ponytail I've ever seen. 626 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:33,320 Speaker 7: Oh my god, moving like doctor Strange cap now doctor 627 00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:34,200 Speaker 7: Strange Kate moves with. 628 00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:37,280 Speaker 4: Him, Doctor Strange Kate, what is that, Doctor Strange?

And I 647 00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:28,760 Speaker 4: think historically, because of what we've been through, like historically 648 00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:33,160 Speaker 4: as a culture, as a race, your condition to go 649 00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:37,720 Speaker 4: my mind mine, your conditioned to like you don't want 650 00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:40,560 Speaker 4: to share so much. And what I've noticed in my 651 00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:45,040 Speaker 4: communities of friends sometimes that don't look like me, they 652 00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:47,360 Speaker 4: will call me and be like Hey, Siera, do you 653 00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:51,360 Speaker 4: need help with da da da?

Like I was 875 00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:30,160 Speaker 4: really intentional on all of that, and I just wanted 876 00:40:30,160 --> 00:40:31,640 Speaker 4: to make sure that when I planned my feet, I 877 00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:34,640 Speaker 4: said I'm here, Like that was really my ultimate goal. 878 00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:36,960 Speaker 4: And then I wanted I wanted to put on for 879 00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:39,440 Speaker 4: my city. You know, coming from Atlanta's a city that 880 00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:41,640 Speaker 4: made me and I just wanted to make my city 881 00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:44,600 Speaker 4: proud because there was so much talent that came from Atlanta, 882 00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:48,160 Speaker 4: Like it's such a special place and to be able 883 00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:52,719 Speaker 4: to be put alongside the many amazing arts have come 884 00:40:52,760 --> 00:40:55,320 Speaker 4: from my city, like is that's special? 885 00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:55,840 Speaker 5: You know. 886 00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:57,399 Speaker 7: I'm glad you said that, because if it does feel 887 00:40:57,400 --> 00:40:59,799 Speaker 7: like your debut shaped the whole generation of young women 888 00:40:59,840 --> 00:41:01,720 Speaker 7: in and R and B, do you feel like today's 889 00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:07,759 Speaker 7: artists understand the responsibility of influence the same way you did. 890 00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:10,239 Speaker 4: I don't know, to be honest with you, I think 891 00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:12,919 Speaker 4: that this social media world makes things feel more light 892 00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:16,960 Speaker 4: taken lightly, you know. I think some artists get it, 893 00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:18,840 Speaker 4: you know. I've been fortunate enough to meet some amazing 894 00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:21,759 Speaker 4: artists that are young and coming up that get it. 895 00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:24,800 Speaker 4: And I think some think it just like falls in 896 00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:27,480 Speaker 4: your lap. It's like if y'all knew what we had 897 00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:29,920 Speaker 4: to do, like before we had the digital age, like 898 00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:32,040 Speaker 4: we was hopping on planes to go to London. I 899 00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:34,200 Speaker 4: would be talking today and I'd be PLAYE the London tomorrow, 900 00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:36,640 Speaker 4: and then we're planning to go to Japan the next 901 00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:39,080 Speaker 4: week and then just to move everything. And you still 902 00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:42,040 Speaker 4: do travel, but the social media world makes everything move 903 00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:46,560 Speaker 4: faster and makes everything feel like bigger, you know, So 904 00:41:46,600 --> 00:41:48,400 Speaker 4: I think it can give you a false perception of 905 00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:51,360 Speaker 4: where you really are. And I do think that the 906 00:41:51,520 --> 00:41:55,040 Speaker 4: rise to fame can happen like even faster because of 907 00:41:55,080 --> 00:42:00,960 Speaker 4: social media. So sometimes you can lose perspective on like reality, 908 00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:03,600 Speaker 4: you know. So I I do think that this new 909 00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:07,400 Speaker 4: age does make things kind of uh flow like that sometimes. 910 00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:09,560 Speaker 4: And then there's some artists you meet that like they 911 00:42:09,560 --> 00:42:12,480 Speaker 4: get it, you know. I actually have a song on 912 00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:17,000 Speaker 4: the deluxe album with Mollie an ox Lade, and Mollie 913 00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:20,759 Speaker 4: is like this really sweet, like bright, young girl. She 914 00:42:20,840 --> 00:42:24,400 Speaker 4: came to me at the Liberty Game here and she 915 00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:26,319 Speaker 4: wanted to do a TikTok thing for a song, move 916 00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:28,120 Speaker 4: on to the next. If you've done with your ex. 917 00:42:28,320 --> 00:42:30,000 Speaker 4: We went to the like, so I did the thing 918 00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:32,759 Speaker 4: with her. But I loved her humility, I loved how 919 00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:36,440 Speaker 4: sweet she was. And you know, I think about artists 920 00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:38,960 Speaker 4: like her, like just have such good attitudes and like 921 00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:44,040 Speaker 4: the hunger, you know. So some artists they do get it, 922 00:42:44,440 --> 00:42:49,840 Speaker 4: you know. Shout out to Lady London as well, and 923 00:42:50,640 --> 00:42:53,360 Speaker 4: my John Bank and my girl, my girl, my gosh, 924 00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:56,240 Speaker 4: Lady London, my other girl. What the heck. 925 00:42:58,120 --> 00:42:58,719 Speaker 5: From New York? 926 00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:00,680 Speaker 4: Why am I a blank right now? 927 00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:07,320 Speaker 5: These are my girls. I'm so sorry. I can't even like. 928 00:43:07,120 --> 00:43:10,920 Speaker 4: This is literally my mind not working. My mind was 929 00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:13,400 Speaker 4: liching because that's my girls. I just literally had a 930 00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:15,680 Speaker 4: brain fart. But I got to shoutout to those girls 931 00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:21,120 Speaker 4: because like the sweetest souls like and so humble and hungry, 932 00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:23,200 Speaker 4: you know, like so some artists they get it. 933 00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:26,120 Speaker 7: What do you think car and needs right now to 934 00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:30,680 Speaker 7: reclaim like that same cultural dominance it had, you know back. 935 00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:31,440 Speaker 1: In that era. 936 00:43:33,480 --> 00:43:37,160 Speaker 4: I think the more we can I don't know, if 937 00:43:37,160 --> 00:43:38,880 Speaker 4: I don't know, if it's like originality, the more we 938 00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:41,160 Speaker 4: can like keep I don't know. I think back in 939 00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:42,799 Speaker 4: that time it was like a comedy. It was so 940 00:43:43,040 --> 00:43:45,480 Speaker 4: raw something like you can ever go back and like 941 00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:48,759 Speaker 4: recreate that. Because I was going to say originality, but 942 00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:51,000 Speaker 4: I think there's such like so much great talent that's 943 00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:56,160 Speaker 4: actually like doing dope fresh things. And I think things 944 00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:59,040 Speaker 4: happen in seasons too, right, It's like there's a time 945 00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:01,560 Speaker 4: where hip hop is dom and there's a time when 946 00:44:01,640 --> 00:44:04,359 Speaker 4: like R and B is super dominant, And I think 947 00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:07,680 Speaker 4: the most important thing is like just stay consistent, you know, 948 00:44:07,760 --> 00:44:10,359 Speaker 4: like every gammer rises in its moment, Like country is 949 00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:13,279 Speaker 4: like such a big moment, right, Like that's just like 950 00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:16,080 Speaker 4: the waves of music. But the thing we do know 951 00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:19,040 Speaker 4: is R and B will never die. It will never die. 952 00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:20,040 Speaker 4: That's what we do know. 953 00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:23,759 Speaker 8: Is it true that meeting that we keep talking about. 954 00:44:23,760 --> 00:44:26,280 Speaker 8: You walked out of that meeting with your masters for free? 955 00:44:26,520 --> 00:44:29,640 Speaker 4: I did, but yeah, they didn't believe. Oh it was 956 00:44:29,680 --> 00:44:31,440 Speaker 4: a it was a total blessing. 957 00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:33,280 Speaker 2: So it was like, so you own all your masters? 958 00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:35,800 Speaker 4: No, all, I'm close to owning all of them. I 959 00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:37,759 Speaker 4: have a few more years before I get the whole thing, 960 00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:40,880 Speaker 4: and I'm counting to day. No, but what I is 961 00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:44,759 Speaker 4: in that meeting, I said after that meeting, you know, 962 00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:46,960 Speaker 4: I walked through it, and I was like, you know what, 963 00:44:47,640 --> 00:44:49,360 Speaker 4: I feel like I'm about to go into my independence 964 00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:51,640 Speaker 4: chapter that I was really wanting to do, like I 965 00:44:51,719 --> 00:44:53,640 Speaker 4: really was. I was like, man, I can't wait to 966 00:44:53,640 --> 00:44:55,520 Speaker 4: be independent because I just really think it's going to 967 00:44:55,560 --> 00:44:58,160 Speaker 4: be so much better. And it's funny because Russell and 968 00:44:58,200 --> 00:44:59,760 Speaker 4: I were up late night, three o'clock in the morning. 969 00:44:59,760 --> 00:45:01,640 Speaker 4: He was research with me, like who's had labels before? 970 00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:03,560 Speaker 4: Blah blah blah. We were doing a whole thing digging 971 00:45:03,600 --> 00:45:07,319 Speaker 4: before this meeting happened, and then that meeting happened. Then 972 00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:09,799 Speaker 4: I was like, shoot, well, I know I believe this 973 00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:11,719 Speaker 4: level of record's going to be special. Like I got 974 00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:15,640 Speaker 4: the video I'm like, I know this is something. So 975 00:45:15,680 --> 00:45:18,120 Speaker 4: I'm asked if I can just can you just give 976 00:45:18,120 --> 00:45:20,160 Speaker 4: me my master's back? And they gave them back to 977 00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:23,120 Speaker 4: me for free. And so that alone lets you let 978 00:45:23,160 --> 00:45:25,480 Speaker 4: you know how much they didn't believe you know what 979 00:45:25,520 --> 00:45:27,400 Speaker 4: I'm saying, Like it lets you know, like, oh, you 980 00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:30,600 Speaker 4: really didn't believe in me, Like it's crazy. But it 981 00:45:30,680 --> 00:45:35,239 Speaker 4: was like one of the most unfortunate moments happening in 982 00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:37,960 Speaker 4: one moment, and then the most fortunate moment happening right 983 00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:40,279 Speaker 4: after it all in the same breath, because that was 984 00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:42,680 Speaker 4: the moment that I was praying for, Like talk about praying. 985 00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:46,400 Speaker 4: I was praying for that moment, and I couldn't have 986 00:45:46,480 --> 00:45:48,480 Speaker 4: been more ready to do it. And like I say, 987 00:45:48,560 --> 00:45:51,120 Speaker 4: it goes back to the fans, because what I learned 988 00:45:51,160 --> 00:45:54,640 Speaker 4: in that moment, I learned the power of my platform. 989 00:45:54,760 --> 00:45:56,600 Speaker 4: I learned the power of the connection to my fans 990 00:45:56,640 --> 00:45:59,640 Speaker 4: because literally I was intentional about building my connection with 991 00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:01,880 Speaker 4: my fans in my platforms. No label told me to 992 00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:04,880 Speaker 4: do that, and then within one click of a button, 993 00:46:06,280 --> 00:46:09,200 Speaker 4: my fans stood up in the world like rock with me, right, 994 00:46:09,600 --> 00:46:15,920 Speaker 4: And that bypassed the opinion or decision of any ceo, 995 00:46:17,040 --> 00:46:19,800 Speaker 4: do you know what I mean? Like it bypassed that chain, 996 00:46:19,960 --> 00:46:21,920 Speaker 4: like that whole channel of like flow you had to 997 00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:25,720 Speaker 4: go through. It's like, no, then it was probably like, honestly, 998 00:46:25,760 --> 00:46:28,719 Speaker 4: at that time period, one of my little I didn't 999 00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:30,920 Speaker 4: spend that much money on the visual just to be 1000 00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:33,800 Speaker 4: honest with you. You know, Paris, God will tell you today's 1001 00:46:33,800 --> 00:46:36,560 Speaker 4: price is not yesterday's price. You know. She really she 1002 00:46:36,600 --> 00:46:39,920 Speaker 4: went off and she's doing her thing. But I mean, 1003 00:46:39,960 --> 00:46:43,719 Speaker 4: I bet on myself real big, you know, and it's 1004 00:46:43,800 --> 00:46:46,000 Speaker 4: just amazing to see like when you do that, like 1005 00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:47,759 Speaker 4: you can take a big risk and you again you 1006 00:46:47,800 --> 00:46:49,520 Speaker 4: may not get right, but when you do, like, oh 1007 00:46:49,560 --> 00:46:52,920 Speaker 4: my god, you know what I'm saying. So no, it 1008 00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:55,000 Speaker 4: was just really I'm so glad that I did it. 1009 00:46:55,160 --> 00:46:56,440 Speaker 1: Why did you want to be independent? 1010 00:46:57,320 --> 00:46:59,520 Speaker 4: I was just tired of the traditional ways of doing things, 1011 00:47:00,239 --> 00:47:03,920 Speaker 4: you know. I felt like like that process of sitting 1012 00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:06,160 Speaker 4: in meetings and like everybody have and I say it, 1013 00:47:06,200 --> 00:47:08,080 Speaker 4: they like it. If they don't, then like are we 1014 00:47:08,080 --> 00:47:10,000 Speaker 4: gonna roll with it or we not? Then if I 1015 00:47:10,040 --> 00:47:12,520 Speaker 4: invest my own money, y'all read the full benefits. The 1016 00:47:12,640 --> 00:47:17,680 Speaker 4: royalty rates are dumb, Like just think about the math, right, Okay, 1017 00:47:18,480 --> 00:47:21,879 Speaker 4: you have depending on your structure, which I don't have 1018 00:47:22,120 --> 00:47:24,759 Speaker 4: traditional management. I kind of manage myself. But I have 1019 00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:28,240 Speaker 4: an amazing team. It shout out my project manager Dimples 1020 00:47:28,239 --> 00:47:31,520 Speaker 4: as well and my boy Marcus Grant. But I have 1021 00:47:31,560 --> 00:47:33,520 Speaker 4: a small group of us and I actually like it, 1022 00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:36,880 Speaker 4: like it's way more lean and I'm still building. What 1023 00:47:36,920 --> 00:47:40,920 Speaker 4: I was gonna say here, The royalties are dumb. Yeah, 1024 00:47:40,960 --> 00:47:45,920 Speaker 4: so you go. So basically, if you have traditional management 1025 00:47:45,920 --> 00:47:47,840 Speaker 4: structure in the beginning, it's a big percentage chunk. 1026 00:47:47,920 --> 00:47:48,320 Speaker 5: Okay. 1027 00:47:48,840 --> 00:47:52,440 Speaker 4: Then you have an attorney okay. Then you may have 1028 00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:57,040 Speaker 4: an agent, okay. Then you have to pay your team. 1029 00:47:57,080 --> 00:48:02,000 Speaker 4: Then you have to pay your taxes, like yes, yes, 1030 00:48:02,239 --> 00:48:05,040 Speaker 4: think about like with that, like that is real. And 1031 00:48:05,080 --> 00:48:07,759 Speaker 4: then if you don't have you don't have ownership on 1032 00:48:07,800 --> 00:48:12,480 Speaker 4: your publishing, you don't write, which I did thankfully and 1033 00:48:12,600 --> 00:48:17,160 Speaker 4: I do. You don't have ownership on your masters, or 1034 00:48:17,200 --> 00:48:20,680 Speaker 4: you busting your butt like you're working hard like I'm 1035 00:48:20,680 --> 00:48:24,959 Speaker 4: talking about with the passion, like I learned. I said, 1036 00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:26,759 Speaker 4: I love something that will never love me back how 1037 00:48:26,800 --> 00:48:29,960 Speaker 4: I love it. Music will never give me back what 1038 00:48:30,040 --> 00:48:30,719 Speaker 4: I give to it. 1039 00:48:30,840 --> 00:48:33,520 Speaker 1: Well, you love music, but the music business is different. 1040 00:48:33,520 --> 00:48:35,799 Speaker 4: That's what I'm saying. The industry, right, the music will 1041 00:48:35,800 --> 00:48:39,040 Speaker 4: feed me. But that's correct, right, the industry. Like so 1042 00:48:39,080 --> 00:48:41,239 Speaker 4: when you understand that, like I say, what are we 1043 00:48:41,320 --> 00:48:45,520 Speaker 4: pumping for? Like what are we doing? That's real? So 1044 00:48:45,520 --> 00:48:48,080 Speaker 4: it's like something has to change, like the traditional structure 1045 00:48:48,120 --> 00:48:50,319 Speaker 4: has to like adjust, which I think labels are going 1046 00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:52,799 Speaker 4: to mark my words. It is changing a lot, like 1047 00:48:52,840 --> 00:48:55,000 Speaker 4: and you see it, like unfortunately, there's many jobs that 1048 00:48:55,040 --> 00:49:00,279 Speaker 4: have been lost. It's a real thing like ownership. To me, 1049 00:49:00,360 --> 00:49:03,879 Speaker 4: I encourage any person like to know that. Listen, I'm 1050 00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:06,120 Speaker 4: not going to like knock systems because I don't want 1051 00:49:06,120 --> 00:49:07,560 Speaker 4: to be that kind of person. And you do what's 1052 00:49:07,560 --> 00:49:09,440 Speaker 4: best for you. But the most important thing to me 1053 00:49:09,520 --> 00:49:12,000 Speaker 4: is the deal you have and if you can own 1054 00:49:12,040 --> 00:49:15,400 Speaker 4: your masters, like your platform is significant, Like think about 1055 00:49:15,400 --> 00:49:17,400 Speaker 4: all these artists that have now broke Like this is 1056 00:49:17,400 --> 00:49:20,279 Speaker 4: one thing I do appreciate from the platforms is how 1057 00:49:20,280 --> 00:49:22,399 Speaker 4: it's giving people opportunities to go and be their own 1058 00:49:22,480 --> 00:49:26,440 Speaker 4: self made millionaires or self made like artist, Like no 1059 00:49:26,440 --> 00:49:29,160 Speaker 4: one will be able to find they might not be 1060 00:49:29,200 --> 00:49:31,680 Speaker 4: able to find a Teddy Swims like you know, like 1061 00:49:32,200 --> 00:49:34,760 Speaker 4: that easy you know if he didn't have his platform 1062 00:49:34,800 --> 00:49:36,799 Speaker 4: to like go and like build this whole thing, like 1063 00:49:37,320 --> 00:49:39,160 Speaker 4: you know, like it's a real thing. Like there's this 1064 00:49:39,239 --> 00:49:40,880 Speaker 4: actress I was talking to on the Today Show I 1065 00:49:40,880 --> 00:49:44,000 Speaker 4: was hosting with Jenna Bush, and I hate that I'm 1066 00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:45,799 Speaker 4: forgetting her name, but she's in a really big movie 1067 00:49:45,880 --> 00:49:48,440 Speaker 4: right now. But because she started being doing her comedy 1068 00:49:48,440 --> 00:49:52,680 Speaker 4: on her Instagram. So like, your ownership is right there, 1069 00:49:52,680 --> 00:49:54,600 Speaker 4: like you're starting it, just make sure you have the 1070 00:49:54,640 --> 00:49:57,160 Speaker 4: right distribution partner, you know what I'm saying, Like that's 1071 00:49:57,160 --> 00:49:59,800 Speaker 4: what I would encourage someone to do, because these labels 1072 00:49:59,800 --> 00:50:01,640 Speaker 4: are trying to find it and to be truthful with you. 1073 00:50:01,760 --> 00:50:04,279 Speaker 4: Oftentimes the labels look at you like tell me the plan. 1074 00:50:04,719 --> 00:50:06,279 Speaker 4: I'm like you telling me, tell you the plan. 1075 00:50:06,360 --> 00:50:08,040 Speaker 9: You get a lot of money. 1076 00:50:08,040 --> 00:50:09,879 Speaker 4: We got figured people in this building, and y'all trying 1077 00:50:09,920 --> 00:50:11,839 Speaker 4: to tell me to tell you the planet. I'm gonna 1078 00:50:11,880 --> 00:50:15,600 Speaker 4: tell myself to plan under my own rules, you know, 1079 00:50:15,640 --> 00:50:17,880 Speaker 4: and I'm gonna do it my way. Like that's I 1080 00:50:17,880 --> 00:50:18,319 Speaker 4: tell them. 1081 00:50:18,280 --> 00:50:19,319 Speaker 1: Niggas that all the time. 1082 00:50:19,400 --> 00:50:21,920 Speaker 7: I literally told somebody from the label last week, that's 1083 00:50:21,920 --> 00:50:24,719 Speaker 7: why all of y'all keep getting fired mm because they 1084 00:50:24,760 --> 00:50:25,399 Speaker 7: don't have a plan. 1085 00:50:25,440 --> 00:50:26,120 Speaker 1: For these thoughts. 1086 00:50:26,239 --> 00:50:29,040 Speaker 4: You gotta have a plan someone, Like some of. 1087 00:50:28,880 --> 00:50:33,040 Speaker 7: These artists have amazing music and there's nobody helping them 1088 00:50:33,040 --> 00:50:33,560 Speaker 7: to push it. 1089 00:50:33,840 --> 00:50:36,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, they don't back on you, and then guess what 1090 00:50:36,719 --> 00:50:40,600 Speaker 4: they do? They shell you. Mmm, Like that's crazy town. 1091 00:50:40,719 --> 00:50:42,640 Speaker 4: Like that's a crushing place for someone to be in, 1092 00:50:43,200 --> 00:50:44,840 Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying. Like, And I've had moments 1093 00:50:44,840 --> 00:50:48,000 Speaker 4: where I remember I I actually remember talking to an executive. 1094 00:50:48,120 --> 00:50:51,279 Speaker 4: I just remember this when I was uh it was 1095 00:50:51,320 --> 00:50:53,160 Speaker 4: back when I was signed a jive and I was 1096 00:50:53,160 --> 00:50:55,400 Speaker 4: a little girl, like baby girl, but I was like 1097 00:50:55,480 --> 00:50:57,799 Speaker 4: so afraid of being shelved and I had to ask 1098 00:50:57,960 --> 00:50:59,480 Speaker 4: to be let off. I didn't that's my master was 1099 00:50:59,520 --> 00:51:02,239 Speaker 4: then because I wasn't ready for the independent chapter. But 1100 00:51:02,680 --> 00:51:04,879 Speaker 4: I just remember like being this young girl. I'm like, Okay, 1101 00:51:04,920 --> 00:51:06,640 Speaker 4: I got to find my way through my emotions, and 1102 00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:08,879 Speaker 4: I'm like we're not seeing eye to eye. I really 1103 00:51:08,920 --> 00:51:10,759 Speaker 4: don't rock with how y'all doing stuff. But that's not 1104 00:51:10,840 --> 00:51:13,200 Speaker 4: the way to walk into the meeting. And luckily I 1105 00:51:13,280 --> 00:51:16,440 Speaker 4: was able to get off and like, you know, in 1106 00:51:16,480 --> 00:51:19,080 Speaker 4: a good way, you know. So, But yeah, did you. 1107 00:51:19,080 --> 00:51:20,839 Speaker 7: Ever feel like the industry was trying to push you up, 1108 00:51:20,840 --> 00:51:22,320 Speaker 7: because it felt like there was a stretch where it 1109 00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:24,960 Speaker 7: felt like they did just stop betting off their. 1110 00:51:25,800 --> 00:51:28,239 Speaker 4: No, I wouldn't say the industry was trying to push 1111 00:51:28,320 --> 00:51:30,000 Speaker 4: me out. I think it probably was just more so 1112 00:51:30,160 --> 00:51:33,319 Speaker 4: seasons with people you know, but not the industry. Like 1113 00:51:33,960 --> 00:51:36,359 Speaker 4: you know, I do feel blessed that, you know, I 1114 00:51:36,400 --> 00:51:41,000 Speaker 4: can call many people you know for a favor or 1115 00:51:41,080 --> 00:51:46,560 Speaker 4: advice or for anything like my to me, one of 1116 00:51:46,600 --> 00:51:49,040 Speaker 4: the most important things you have to have as an 1117 00:51:49,160 --> 00:51:53,480 Speaker 4: entrepreneur is your relationships. And I've always taken pride in 1118 00:51:53,480 --> 00:51:57,360 Speaker 4: my relationships and I feel fortunate to have the rolodex 1119 00:51:57,440 --> 00:52:01,279 Speaker 4: that I do and I've been also I've had great 1120 00:52:01,320 --> 00:52:03,719 Speaker 4: mentors in the industry too, you know what I'm saying. 1121 00:52:03,760 --> 00:52:06,120 Speaker 4: So I wouldn't say the industry. I think it's just 1122 00:52:06,320 --> 00:52:08,440 Speaker 4: it's ebbs and flows. Like I said, I don't know 1123 00:52:08,520 --> 00:52:12,960 Speaker 4: what great like you name one. Tell me what great 1124 00:52:13,200 --> 00:52:16,319 Speaker 4: that has either sat in this chair, has you know, 1125 00:52:16,840 --> 00:52:19,600 Speaker 4: had tremendous success, has been told you can't do it again. 1126 00:52:20,880 --> 00:52:24,000 Speaker 4: It just comes with it, you know. So did I 1127 00:52:24,040 --> 00:52:25,560 Speaker 4: have a moment like that? For sure? 1128 00:52:25,719 --> 00:52:26,000 Speaker 5: You know. 1129 00:52:26,120 --> 00:52:28,560 Speaker 4: And I plan on climbing higher heights, so it might 1130 00:52:28,560 --> 00:52:29,040 Speaker 4: happen again. 1131 00:52:29,120 --> 00:52:31,040 Speaker 7: But isn't that whack though, because you have an executive 1132 00:52:31,040 --> 00:52:34,080 Speaker 7: that might have believed in you so much, you had 1133 00:52:34,080 --> 00:52:37,400 Speaker 7: the success, yeah, and then for whatever reason they stopped believing. 1134 00:52:38,719 --> 00:52:41,960 Speaker 4: Well, the thing was at that time period, it was, Yeah, 1135 00:52:42,000 --> 00:52:43,759 Speaker 4: it was the person that signed me was different the 1136 00:52:43,800 --> 00:52:44,520 Speaker 4: person that came in. 1137 00:52:44,800 --> 00:52:45,560 Speaker 2: That's how it always is. 1138 00:52:45,640 --> 00:52:48,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, So that's also not fun too, is going through 1139 00:52:48,200 --> 00:52:50,480 Speaker 4: the rotating door or the changing of the guards. Like 1140 00:52:51,080 --> 00:52:52,840 Speaker 4: it's like, okay, wait, we were about to go with 1141 00:52:52,920 --> 00:52:55,200 Speaker 4: this project. And mind you, I was pregnant when I 1142 00:52:55,239 --> 00:53:00,560 Speaker 4: signed that deal. So I got a shout out Monty, 1143 00:53:00,719 --> 00:53:02,359 Speaker 4: who was the A and R at that time over 1144 00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:07,319 Speaker 4: at the label. He said to me, I said, I 1145 00:53:07,400 --> 00:53:09,359 Speaker 4: was so scared, And I said, babe, because we were 1146 00:53:09,640 --> 00:53:11,840 Speaker 4: supposed to sign the deal way earlier and then it 1147 00:53:11,880 --> 00:53:13,640 Speaker 4: was taken longer. And I'm like, oh my gosh, now 1148 00:53:13,680 --> 00:53:16,319 Speaker 4: we're caring they gonna do this deal with me, you know, 1149 00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:19,480 Speaker 4: And then you know, Manty was like, Sierra, don't worry, 1150 00:53:19,560 --> 00:53:21,560 Speaker 4: like you go do what you need to do. Monty 1151 00:53:21,600 --> 00:53:25,000 Speaker 4: Olsen got his name right.
