Speaker 1: you traveling? Are you spending time with family? Are you

62
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:56,840
Speaker 1: laying low? I remember growing up in Brooklyn and that

63
00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 1: was the day that everybody was alighting their fireworks on

64
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,400
Speaker 1: the grooftop. And I tell you what, not much has

65
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:04,840
Speaker 1: changed in Brooklyn. I'm still there and there are still

66
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:07,520
Speaker 1: all kinds of fireworks. I actually now get to sit

67
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 1: on my roof and watch this. And I remember last year,

68
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 1: having moved into my new house and going on the

69
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:16,160
Speaker 1: roof and just watching everything happen from there. So no

70
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 1: matter what, you guys, be safe. I also see there's

71
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 1: all these Free America events that are going to be

72
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:25,799
Speaker 1: happening protesting Donald Trump's administration. So that's going to be

73
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:29,640
Speaker 1: held across the country throughout the weekend. So no matter what,

74
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 1: be careful when it comes to traveling everything that it

75
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 1: is that you have to do. And the Free America

76
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:38,120
Speaker 1: weekend is being organized by the Women's March, which lost

77
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 1: in twenty seventeen. That was when women were outraised over

78
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:45,400
Speaker 1: Donald Trump's twenty sixteen presidential win. I was actually there

79
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:48,960
Speaker 1: at the Women's March. Anyway, again, be safe and call

00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,440

Speaker 1: I'll give you some advice, some of my expert advice.

89
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 1: All right, so right now on the line, we have Stacy.

90
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:20,200
Speaker 1: What's up, statsy, Hi, Hi, Stasy, how you feeling today?

91
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 4: I'm good, I'm good.

92
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 3: Well I've been better.

93
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,600
Speaker 4: My best friend is getting on my nerves, Like all right,

94
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:29,159
Speaker 4: So she's one of those friends that can't be happy

95
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:30,880
Speaker 4: for you when you level on up? What do I

96
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:31,400
Speaker 4: do with that?

97
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:33,000
Speaker 1: How long have you all been friends?

98
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:34,760
Speaker 4: Like six years?

99
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,560
Speaker 1: I do believe that somebody who can't be happy for

100
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 1: you is not your friend for real. I think Sassy

101
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:42,640
Speaker 1: that energy, though, is not the type of energy you

102
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:44,600
Speaker 1: want to have around you as you're elevating in your

103
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:46,599
Speaker 1: life and career. Like what's going on with her that

104
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:48,599
Speaker 1: she seems like she's not happy about.

105
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,440
Speaker 4: I mean she was in school and not really following

106
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:54,799
Speaker 4: her passions just yet. I Mean a lot of doors

107
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:57,039
Speaker 4: are like kind of closing for her, but she keeps

108
00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 4: going and that's a support her for him, Like I'm

109
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 4: there for her. But it's really problematic where like where

110
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:04,400
Speaker 4: I was down and out, like yeah, we were cool,

111
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:06,479
Speaker 4: like you were able to key key and all that

112
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,720
Speaker 4: good stuff, But when it came time to you know,

113
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,080
Speaker 4: good things start happening for me, it's kind of like

114
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,479
Speaker 4: I don't hear from her as much. She doesn't text me,

115
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 4: she doesn't me out Like at this point, I would

116
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 4: talk to her every day, maybe three times a day.

117
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 4: Now is I haven't talked to her like six minutes.

118
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:24,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I had a situation like that, Oddly enough, Like

119
00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:26,520
Speaker 1: when things are going really well for me and one

120
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:28,280
Speaker 1: of my friends, I used to like not want to

121
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,120
Speaker 1: tell her what was happening because I felt like bad

122
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,320
Speaker 1: about it. I felt bad when good things were happening,

123
00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 1: I had to always act like nothing was really popping

124
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:39,960
Speaker 1: for me. And so I just think that, you know,

125
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:41,800
Speaker 1: at different times in your life, sometimes we don't want

126
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,400
Speaker 1: to abandon people that we've been cool with, but sometimes

127
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:46,880
Speaker 1: you have to realize that that friendship may have changed

128
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 1: and isn't what it is that you need for right now.

129
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 1: And you got to put yourself first. And so if

130
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,520
Speaker 1: having somebody around you that's not going to be positive

131
00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:59,040
Speaker 1: and uplifting and keep going and is also going through

132
00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:02,240
Speaker 1: whatever they're going through, that's not beneficial for you. And

133
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 1: sometimes you have to say, I don't have to be

134
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:05,039
Speaker 1: the savior.

135
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:06,760
Speaker 4: So what do I do when she tries to come

136
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:07,719
Speaker 4: back to be my friend?

137
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 1: I think you gotta be honest, and if she's a

138
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 1: real friend and you're honest with her, you should be

139
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,520
Speaker 1: able to have those conversations. You should be able to

140
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,400
Speaker 1: tell her. Look, I just feel like when things weren't

141
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 1: going well, we related good, you know, But now that

142
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,520
Speaker 1: I've been having some positive things happening, I feel like

143
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 1: you're not celebrating me and you're not, you know, doing

144
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:27,440
Speaker 1: what I need you to do as a friend. And

145
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:30,159
Speaker 1: so I had to step back, and you have to

146
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:32,359
Speaker 1: be honest, and maybe it'll make her open up, maybe

147
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,839
Speaker 1: she'll have civilizations. Yeah, because I think everybody has to

148
00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:37,960
Speaker 1: self reflect on why they act the way that they act.

149
00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:40,360
Speaker 1: And hopefully she'll be able to do that and you

150
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:44,159
Speaker 1: guys can revitalize your friendship. But if not, I just

151
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:46,880
Speaker 1: don't think that, you know, friendship should mean dragging somebody,

152
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 1: dragging one person down?

153
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:49,600
Speaker 4: Then true?

154
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:52,520
Speaker 1: Well, thank you? Ye all right, yeah, welcome girl.

155
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 5: Bye.

156
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,839
Speaker 1: That was ask ye eight hundred two ninety two fifty

157
00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:58,680

170
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:37,080
Speaker 1: Now I gotta ask you this, when guys, if a

171
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 1: guy approaches you on once to Day, is he nervous

172
00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:43,480
Speaker 1: if you listen to your music? Like, yeah, listens.

173
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 5: But whatever fears un attractive anyway? So I feel that

174
00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:47,720
Speaker 5: if I so like scared, I'm off it.

175
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:50,720
Speaker 1: Well listen. Couldn't be me. I absolutely love.

176
00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 6: That song I heard the men of a Shoes, The

177
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 6: one that they really love is the one that they lose.

178
00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:56,400
Speaker 5: She ends up.

179
00:07:56,320 --> 00:08:00,720
Speaker 6: Being the one they dream about in the learning the

180
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:03,720
Speaker 6: house with the woman he settled for.

181
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:05,440
Speaker 5: She was better for mine.

182
00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 6: I guess God blessed.

183
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 1: But he couldn't be me. You know what somebody told

184
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 1: me one time for men they'll end up with the

185
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:15,520
Speaker 1: wrong person at the right time rather than the right

186
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:17,320
Speaker 1: person at the wrong time. Like you can have like

187
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:21,400
Speaker 1: the most perfect person, but if you're just not ready

188
00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:23,840
Speaker 1: for it. But then when when a guy decides he's ready,

189
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 1: it's like, all right, who's here? You know. That's just

190
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,520
Speaker 1: what I've heard from I've been heard that from guys too,

191
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:30,720
Speaker 1: like they'll be like, you know, I just kind of

192
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:32,560
Speaker 1: felt like it was time for me to settle down.

193
00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:36,679
Speaker 5: They're not crazy. That's so common because I've heard that enough.

194
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:39,719
Speaker 1: Right now, I got my girl, Jesse Ray is here

195
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:43,680
Speaker 1: with me. Has anybody ever proposed to you for real? Yes?

196
00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:44,000
Speaker 3: Or no?

197
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:48,920
Speaker 5: I'll tell y'af I'll tell you off this because it's complicated. Okay,

198
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:52,360
Speaker 5: it's not complicated, it's just nuanced. Okay, Yeah, we don't

199
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:54,559
Speaker 5: know what. No, I know there's a lot, but i'll

Speaker 5: tell you. I'm in Toronto. No, it wasn't that.

201
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:04,480

Speaker 1: you guys are getting a WNBA team. Also, yeah, Tempo,

Speaker 1: you were just at the game. But it's also funny

213
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:35,080
Speaker 1: when things like that happen. It's so funny.

214
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,520
Speaker 5: Oh my god, it's so funny because when they panned over,

215

Speaker 3: Let's go.

227
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:07,520

00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:11,360
Speaker 1: and is gonna say what's up his way up at Angela? Yeah,

229
00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 1: and I am talking to Jesse Rayes now. You also

230
00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:18,320
Speaker 1: on the album talk about being one year sober.

231
00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:20,559
Speaker 6: Been a buddy, years since I had to drink, been

232
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:22,840
Speaker 6: a buddy, years since I talked to my brother last

233
00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:25,120
Speaker 6: love again at the gun on the brink with the irony,

234
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:28,079
Speaker 6: is getting everything else that you wanted years now?

235
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:30,079
Speaker 1: I guess when this came out? All right, so we

236
00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 1: keep it going because it would have suck for it

237
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:34,200
Speaker 1: to come out. And then they're like, actually it fell

238
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:36,560
Speaker 1: off the wagon. Wow, who knows?

239
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:37,520
Speaker 5: I'm human?

240
00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:40,280
Speaker 1: Right right? So what was that mission about for you?

241
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:42,680
Speaker 5: I had just gotten too deep into it and then

242
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,080
Speaker 5: relied on it too much. The last time I got

243
00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,680
Speaker 5: drunk was at the album release party from my last

244
00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:51,120
Speaker 5: album for Yesie, and that day I got like homies

245
00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:53,400
Speaker 5: had to carry me home. My folks were in town,

246
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:55,080
Speaker 5: so my mom had to see that. And there's something

247
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:57,080
Speaker 5: that's not new to her, Like I've been drinking since

248
00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:59,280
Speaker 5: I was young, so she's had to see multiple friends

249
00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 5: bring me home like just lifeless, dead weight body. There

250
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:04,920
Speaker 5: was a hangover that lasted two days, and that party

251
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,360
Speaker 5: was intense, like there was a lot of a lot

252
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:09,400
Speaker 5: of big names at that party, a lot of important people,

253
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,480
Speaker 5: and I just remember thinking, I'm like, yo, I it

254
00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:14,800
Speaker 5: could have gone left so quick, right, because things have

255
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:16,280
Speaker 5: gone left in the past. There's a lot of nights

256
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:17,680
Speaker 5: that I could have died. I feel like my mom's

257
00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:19,600
Speaker 5: prayers have saved me from a lot. Got have saved

258
00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:22,000
Speaker 5: me from a lot. And at that point I started

259
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,600
Speaker 5: doing more recognizance of like when I was going through

260
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,079
Speaker 5: heartbreak as a teenager, That's what I leaned on when

261
00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:30,480
Speaker 5: I started working nightlife and industry. If you ever bartended,

262
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:32,079
Speaker 5: or if you've ever been a bottle serverce color, it

263
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:34,679
Speaker 5: becomes a norm. And then when I was lucky enough

264
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:38,120
Speaker 5: to become a full time musician, it was before the show.

265
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:39,640
Speaker 1: If I got nerves, would lean on it.

266
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:42,040
Speaker 5: And then in the studio it became a tool because

267
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:44,000
Speaker 5: it a salary intimacy if you're in there with strangers

268
00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:46,439
Speaker 5: and you gotta be vulnerable and became a tool. And

269
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:48,959
Speaker 5: then on an off day you're trying to relax, became

270
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,280
Speaker 5: a tool. And then it was just everywhere all the time.

271
00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:54,280
Speaker 5: But because I was functioning, it didn't really like it

272
00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 5: was few and far in between, where those kind of

273
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,079
Speaker 5: hangovers what happened, but it was all the time, and

274
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:00,480
Speaker 5: I think I just kind of woke up and I

275
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:02,719
Speaker 5: was like, my body hates it, my soul hates it,

276
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:05,360
Speaker 5: my family hates it. Why am I gonna keep doing

277
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:07,520
Speaker 5: something that doesn't feel right?

278
00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 3: Right?

279
00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:08,440
Speaker 1: Yeah?

280
00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:10,400
Speaker 5: So so then I stopped and and it's been two years.

281
00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:13,120
Speaker 1: Were good for you, But congratulations on that. I think

282
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:16,040
Speaker 1: you right now, I got my girl, Jesse Rayes here

283
00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:18,199
Speaker 1: with me now. Since these songs are all about somebody

284
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:20,400
Speaker 1: and headaches, you got legs that.

285
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,360
Speaker 6: You lift, God of press because you promised the world

286
00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:29,560
Speaker 6: and gave me nothing but some mediocreaches.

287
00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:39,160
Speaker 1: Who gave you mediocre somebody's dusty ass son. They don't

288
00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 1: know nothing. They don't honestly, I think they know what

289
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:42,720
Speaker 1: they're doing. Let me tell you something.

290
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:45,640
Speaker 5: You should be grateful for honest friends and honest women

291
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,040
Speaker 5: in your life, because few and far in between will

292
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,400
Speaker 5: you find people that will legitimately tell you the truth

293
00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:52,880
Speaker 5: and deliver it in a way that doesn't absolutely bruise

294
00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 5: your ego.

295
00:12:53,280 --> 00:13:01,720
Speaker 1: Better enough, well, no, like in a hit smash song.

296
00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:03,800
Speaker 1: I tried to tell them before the song came out.

297
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:11,839
Speaker 1: Yet that was Jesse Rayes, Thank you so much for
