Hey world, let's get it well. 65 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:40,520 Speaker 1: The think about you that you know when we talked, man, 66 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 1: it was almost because I have a I come from 67 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 1: a big family, Molly, you know, from Houston, Texas. I 68 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 1: have a six sisters, two brothers, and I felt I 69 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 1: was talking to my younger brother here. Man, you know, 70 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 1: because because you know you, you know you you got 71 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 1: that energy. Man, you you you still have unconquered territories 72 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 1: that you want to, like, want to want to want 73 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 1: to make a difference in. But the more for sure 74 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 1: it is we always can get boxed in, especially we 75 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 1: do R and B. People think, oh, you should be 76 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 1: doing R and B. You do country? What you what black? 77 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 1: What you're doing over in country? You should be over there? 78 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 1: And so we've seen so many walls coming down in 79 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 1: our era in this timeline. Are you feeling that's comfortable 80 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,960 Speaker 1: for what you're trying to do as well. I do 81 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 1: feel that it's effective, but comfortable is not the words. Um. 82 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 1: It's good for what we want business to do. It's 83 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:33,039 Speaker 1: good for the spreading of our wings. But it's kind 84 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:36,159 Speaker 1: of like a racial conversation. You open up the doors 85 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 1: to be heard out by a different race, and then 86 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 1: it gets uncomfortable for just because you start bringing out 87 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 1: different issues. I recently traveled to Nashville to do some 88 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 1: songwriting with Chad lead Saying of the rock band Christian 89 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:52,680 Speaker 1: rock band Unspoken, and it was a challenge for me, 90 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:56,919 Speaker 1: especially coming from soul background gospel background, but I had 91 00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:01,160 Speaker 1: to remember I have songs out like Gimme, Gimme Ready, impulses, 92 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 1: songs that have rock feels for it. So man, the 93 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 1: spreading and the falling of the genres, it's definitely good. 94 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 1: I've been watching it happen in hip hop and other 95 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:12,840 Speaker 1: genres for a long time, and I'm glad that it's 96 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:15,359 Speaker 1: finally made it to the gospel. Well, you're interesting, But 97 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 1: it's about a beat, isn't it, Because when you're talking 98 00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 1: about you know, because it is like a one three 99 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:21,920 Speaker 1: or two four beat when you're talking about music, when 100 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:23,599 Speaker 1: you're talking about R and B beats, and you're talking 101 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 1: about we're talking about rock beats, especially because they can 102 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:29,359 Speaker 1: hang out notes a lot longer. How does that you know? 103 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 1: Because we all know that gospel is driven by emotion 104 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 1: and and so and so you're emotionally driven guy, and 105 00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 1: then you're going to rock a lot of times it's 106 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:41,479 Speaker 1: just driven by sound. So how do you blend the 107 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 1: two to get the results that you want? Excellent question. Well, 108 00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:49,840 Speaker 1: they bring me in normally as a lyricist, I write 109 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 1: lyrics like you know mean comes only to still killing 110 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:56,800 Speaker 1: and destroyed. Come in with things like that, I said 111 00:05:56,800 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 1: a Christian rock band. One thing about the genre gospel 112 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 1: is it is sound. It doesn't necessarily have a sound anymore. 113 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 1: Of course, you have the Mahellia Jackson. You know, it 114 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:13,040 Speaker 1: comes up. You know, you have the no you're not, 115 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:15,480 Speaker 1: you know, house of prayer, and that's your house of prayer. 116 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 1: You get what I'm saying. Town, You have Baptist music, 117 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,279 Speaker 1: um worship music like hill Song and stuff like that. 118 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 1: If you notice, the music could be anything. Gospel and 119 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:30,600 Speaker 1: Christian has now solely based in genre around the content. 120 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:32,839 Speaker 1: As long as at some point you say that Jesus 121 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:36,279 Speaker 1: Christ's Lord. It could sound like any type of beat, 122 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:40,000 Speaker 1: you get what I mean. So our genre is mostly 123 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 1: about the edification of God, absolute sound. But it is 124 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,000 Speaker 1: because we just talk amusing that molly okay, you know, 125 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,200 Speaker 1: because of the fact that when you look at R 126 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 1: and B, you know, like you started naming different artists 127 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 1: that they lie themselves in the whole genre. Because because 128 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:56,599 Speaker 1: when you got the hip hop and rap, it just 129 00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:59,600 Speaker 1: like tore it self away from R right, it towards you. 130 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 1: Just this is not even MARB. They don't even sing it, 131 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:04,920 Speaker 1: ok they clearly not saying. And then when you get 132 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:08,159 Speaker 1: into R and B had soul, you know, you had 133 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 1: had the deal. So yeah, all those different genres. So 134 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 1: when when you start talking about gosp, I started realizing, man, 135 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:18,680 Speaker 1: there are many many layers. When you talk about Man Jackson, 136 00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 1: you talk about Kurt Franklin, you talk about you, you know, 137 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 1: Donnie McClerkin. John Ki inquired, right, how did that? And 138 00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 1: that's from a creative standpoint, that's a challenge. Huh, yeah, 139 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 1: it could be. But what I noticed while coming up 140 00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 1: in church is a lot of the creativity came out 141 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 1: of one person um creatively, like you might have had 142 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:46,120 Speaker 1: six people in Ricky dillits quiet, but they were all 143 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:48,920 Speaker 1: a lot doing riggy and everything that would coming out 144 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:51,240 Speaker 1: of their mouth. And the band was something that he 145 00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:53,560 Speaker 1: probably heard at the coffee table that a few mornings 146 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 1: before and taught them say what Hezekiah. So being a 147 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:58,680 Speaker 1: praise of worship leader, first, I know that you can 148 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:02,080 Speaker 1: spend time with God in the car, Tell some vocalists 149 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:04,320 Speaker 1: how the part go, tell the band, and before you 150 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 1: know what, you're in a high spirit of praise. So 151 00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 1: the big ideas can come out of one person. Of 152 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:13,120 Speaker 1: Beethoven had a whole orchestra, but it was his music 153 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:16,120 Speaker 1: every line. So I think it's just um, you know, 154 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 1: just based on who the idea is coming out of, 155 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 1: and it could be one person, even though many people 156 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 1: of health. You know, when I want to look at you, Mally, 157 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 1: I always said I have to bring this question to 158 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 1: everybody who comes to the show. What did it start 159 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 1: for you? Because I look at myself and I try 160 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 1: to pinpoint. I always tell people I've been doing this 161 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:34,840 Speaker 1: since I was eighteen years old when I really looked 162 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:37,439 Speaker 1: at my life. You know, I've been I've been uplifting, 163 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:41,080 Speaker 1: I've been creative. I've been a person who who thought differently, 164 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:43,680 Speaker 1: just saw I saw a different path to success. I 165 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:45,680 Speaker 1: came from a black neighborhood, but I didn't want to 166 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:47,440 Speaker 1: die in a black neighborhood. I thought there was more 167 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:49,680 Speaker 1: to the world out there, and eighteen years old, I 168 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,559 Speaker 1: was committed to seeing more of that world. So that 169 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 1: so I locked that day. That's important when it really 170 00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 1: started for me. And then I went to college and 171 00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:02,079 Speaker 1: college changed my life. What did start for all of music? Well? 172 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:08,079 Speaker 1: Out bagged my father for pro Tools, which is a 173 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 1: sound or wave recording software that is about maybe five 174 00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:21,280 Speaker 1: hundred six hundred dollars. It requires US computer monitor, miles 175 00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 1: sound speakers. I was asking my dad for this at 176 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:33,560 Speaker 1: thirteen years old. I would laugh because you said. My 177 00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:36,079 Speaker 1: dad was saying, oh, this is not a money making compensations. 178 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:41,680 Speaker 1: I said, you know, I understood. I asked him around 179 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:44,600 Speaker 1: thirteen after going to a studio with a friend. And 180 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:47,320 Speaker 1: that's how I learned. That's how people get their voice 181 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:49,960 Speaker 1: to come out of the radio. As a young boy, 182 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 1: I'm always hearing moms saying, I'm always hearing my sisters saying, 183 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 1: But I'm like, how do we come out of the 184 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:58,160 Speaker 1: radio like Luther Van Drawls, you know, And I didn't 185 00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:00,079 Speaker 1: know if it was some type of process and it 186 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:03,400 Speaker 1: was pro tools and like you know, electronic and software 187 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:06,880 Speaker 1: based computers was what it was. After the tape started 188 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 1: going for you laid it on wax, But now you 189 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 1: could do it digitally, I asked my after that thirteen No, no, no, 190 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:20,319 Speaker 1: Dad's sprintly. He got it for me around sixteen. I 191 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 1: was mastering it around seventeen and utilizing it for church 192 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 1: stuff like putting thunder behind my pastor preaching if he 193 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 1: pro spoke about a valley or war. Trying to find 194 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 1: ways to use the technological sound advancement that I was 195 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,640 Speaker 1: blessed with by my dad at sixteen to do what 196 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:39,840 Speaker 1: my mom was making me doing. So now you got 197 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 1: this pro tools, but don't talk about no women, don't 198 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:44,679 Speaker 1: talk about no bottles, and you're gonna be talking about God. 199 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 1: I don't want no curse words. And make sure that 200 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:51,559 Speaker 1: you creatively, creatively, don't do that same note stuff. I said, okay, man, 201 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 1: I could do that. So I think that that's what 202 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 1: set my values early. So even though I had a 203 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 1: huge future and I probably wouldn't been doing all types 204 00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 1: of music. My values were set based on me getting 205 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:05,640 Speaker 1: music for church, God being put into my heart in 206 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 1: my gift, and me promising the people who gave it 207 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 1: to me that I wouldn't straight from that path. As 208 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,720 Speaker 1: I grew older, that got more and more difficult because 209 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:14,679 Speaker 1: I want to be more rebellious. I want to start 210 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 1: echoing sounds that I hear, but holding on to those 211 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:20,200 Speaker 1: values kept the unique and especial anointing on it.

But 257 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:57,200 Speaker 1: did they know that did you understand the value of 258 00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:01,880 Speaker 1: this five dollars or six hundred dollar advice? Because people 259 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:03,800 Speaker 1: if you, if you give somebody a car, let them 260 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:06,480 Speaker 1: loan and then guess what they if they reckon, they 261 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:09,559 Speaker 1: go I'm sorry. But if they were tied to the 262 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 1: damage of direct then they have a different conversation when 263 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:14,839 Speaker 1: they come talk to you. And so Now at that 264 00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:19,520 Speaker 1: early age were their friends who started, i know, tied 265 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:22,200 Speaker 1: to the church, and you started seeing people react to 266 00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:25,280 Speaker 1: your beach, react to your music because you're the gospel man. 267 00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 1: Because you know. The thing about it is, if you're 268 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 1: a rap, if you're an R and B, you know 269 00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 1: you yes, you can. You know, if R and B 270 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 1: you're singing for the ladies, you know what I'm saying. 271 00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 1: If you're a rap in the street just just doing 272 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:38,440 Speaker 1: rive for your crew, who were you doing it for? 273 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:42,920 Speaker 1: My pastor gave me the opportunity to be minister of 274 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:46,680 Speaker 1: music and start playing at his church when I was eleven. Now, 275 00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 1: I said, I asked my dad for pro too that thirteen. 276 00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 1: So I've already been singing as a minister of music 277 00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:54,480 Speaker 1: and playing learning chords in the church for three years 278 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:58,160 Speaker 1: already on Yamaha d X seven. Now that's as old 279 00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 1: the keyboard that you could yeah and be. I'm blowing 280 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:04,880 Speaker 1: contridge is out trying to change in the middle of that. 281 00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:08,120 Speaker 1: It's not what I need. So I was a young 282 00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 1: musician coming in at the ship of a technological era, 283 00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:15,960 Speaker 1: like synthesizers were growing into bigger stuff when the churches 284 00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:18,320 Speaker 1: just before I started playing in church, which was very 285 00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:21,560 Speaker 1: early were mostly organ all right, so we didn't have 286 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 1: an organ in that church, so the keyboard wasn't enough. 287 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:25,520 Speaker 1: So I wanted strings. I wanted all these different types 288 00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 1: of things. So that's what kind of set the tone. 289 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 1: It was to please my pastor. It was to be 290 00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:32,080 Speaker 1: able to show that I was ready for the leadership 291 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,480 Speaker 1: position that he gave me. Even though I was so young. 292 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 1: I anticipated for people to say I was unauthorized and 293 00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 1: should not be associated with such a position light minutes 294 00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:42,200 Speaker 1: of music. So I gave my all to it. I 295 00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 1: gave my commitment, and it kind of gave me responsibility. 296 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:49,240 Speaker 1: Before I wanted friends, So now even though I had 297 00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:52,880 Speaker 1: friends and companions, I was if I wasn't doing chorus, 298 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:54,840 Speaker 1: I was trying to make sure I got back to 299 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:57,400 Speaker 1: learn my pro tools because my dad wasn't from the 300 00:15:57,480 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 1: boy me software that I didn't know how to use. 301 00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:03,360 Speaker 1: So now I have to read user books, manuals, and 302 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 1: I became pretty obsessive and a bit of a nerd 303 00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:09,920 Speaker 1: over the technological part. Once I started bringing CDs to school, 304 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:13,400 Speaker 1: it was over. I'm singing for the dances, I'm I'm 305 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:17,080 Speaker 1: doing the national anthem. Prerecorded over the I just was 306 00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:19,200 Speaker 1: finding ways to use the pro tools and it became 307 00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:22,360 Speaker 1: really awesome. But it didn't hit until the world heard 308 00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:25,000 Speaker 1: it on my Space. And that's where social media comes in. 309 00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 1: That so my music was right on the curve of 310 00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:31,120 Speaker 1: a shift, and once everybody heard it online because black 311 00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:34,280 Speaker 1: Planet just died, I was in my Space artist by 312 00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:36,280 Speaker 1: the time they found Molly Music.

I noticed once I got finished 334 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:52,320 Speaker 1: acting inside of the like movie industry, that the most 335 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:57,320 Speaker 1: important investment was like the last two million dollars that 336 00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:00,119 Speaker 1: a movie needs, and people can come on at a 337 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:03,480 Speaker 1: final investor because a movie ran short on a ten 338 00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:06,119 Speaker 1: million dollar budget or something, that they give the final 339 00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:08,240 Speaker 1: two and then it is the breaking point of it. 340 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:10,919 Speaker 1: That's what I started doing with my music. Jonathan had 341 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:13,439 Speaker 1: a whole album, The People album was killing. He had 342 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:16,520 Speaker 1: a whole campaign, But collaboration was just so we could 343 00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:19,400 Speaker 1: bring our jet packs together to get over the edge. 344 00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:22,320 Speaker 1: Of course we could do something effective in gospel, but 345 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:25,399 Speaker 1: can we put a dent in the world, And that 346 00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:28,440 Speaker 1: was something we weren't planning to do. But the collaboration 347 00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:30,879 Speaker 1: goes in depth. It was agreement from me and Jonathan 348 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:33,640 Speaker 1: and Spirit, but then it also was our teams. I'm 349 00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 1: with r c Ai and he is with E one, 350 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:39,919 Speaker 1: and those companies also collaborated for us to have the 351 00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:43,080 Speaker 1: success that we had based on, you know, working the record, 352 00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:46,200 Speaker 1: calling people. It was two labels collaborating. So I'm very 353 00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:48,679 Speaker 1: proud of what Gospel Music did because we obtained this 354 00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:52,479 Speaker 1: reward or this award by working together. There's a lot 355 00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:56,119 Speaker 1: of people who just simply don't do that. In God. 356 00:18:56,200 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 1: With Phil Thornton, hey don't get me started. On the field, 357 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 1: that guy is awesome and he's been grinding from the beginning. 358 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 1: So I was so excited to see that his promotion 359 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 1: finally came. So it's like Steve Nash, Oh, you have 360 00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:16,480 Speaker 1: a team now that you're coaching. Can I play with y'all? 361 00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 1: I wasn't necessarily interested in functioning with the system this way, 362 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:23,000 Speaker 1: but if you're over it, I know God has involved, 363 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:25,920 Speaker 1: prayers involved, and I could have success and it worked out. 364 00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:28,760 Speaker 1: So I'm happy. You know that the beauty of you, 365 00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:34,600 Speaker 1: there's a certain genuine love of conversation because you know 366 00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:37,680 Speaker 1: this is this is not insulted. You know a lot 367 00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:41,080 Speaker 1: of people they won't they you know their gospel, they 368 00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:44,480 Speaker 1: just come there. They're real church. You're you're hallelujah. Praised 369 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:49,359 Speaker 1: the Lord. It's a blessing to be here. I got that. 370 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:52,280 Speaker 1: I got that. But I really think, I really think, Molly, 371 00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:54,080 Speaker 1: I can eat some bob que with you. You know 372 00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I really think I could play some 373 00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:59,280 Speaker 1: basketball with you. You know what I'm saying. We can 374 00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:00,879 Speaker 1: scream by the team, be a little bit. You know 375 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:03,359 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I really do believe that, man, because 376 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:05,879 Speaker 1: that is that's part of your upbringing. You know. The 377 00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:09,440 Speaker 1: spiked the fact at eleven years old, you was giving 378 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:12,480 Speaker 1: a leadership role, which is a mature thing and also 379 00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 1: can be something that can like pigeon hole a person's personality. 380 00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 1: But how did you really maintain your personality? Man, with 381 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 1: all that pressure? But loving you old talking to adults 382 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:27,680 Speaker 1: considered a gifted individual because you just don't slide over there. 383 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:30,360 Speaker 1: But then your parents over they're going, really, boy, take 384 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:33,400 Speaker 1: that trash out there, boy boy, if you don't clean 385 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:35,879 Speaker 1: up your room, because that was happening at the house. 386 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:40,400 Speaker 1: So that really kept you straight correct, yes, And then 387 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:43,240 Speaker 1: coming up in Savannah, Georgia, it was happening outside the house. 388 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:47,199 Speaker 1: You can get whooped by anybody, enjoy. So it was 389 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:51,200 Speaker 1: a blessing because I'll see, I'm thirteen years old and 390 00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:55,240 Speaker 1: the power God falls at a at a meeting, um. 391 00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:57,560 Speaker 1: And then I get spoken to by one of the 392 00:20:57,600 --> 00:21:01,239 Speaker 1: elder women, one of the grandma, and that's all she's 393 00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:03,680 Speaker 1: gonna say. She will never get around the same. Good job. 394 00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:08,639 Speaker 1: She says, don't forget where you come from. That And 395 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:11,119 Speaker 1: that's not mean that she seen me going play. She 396 00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:13,800 Speaker 1: forgot to tell me that, but she let me know 397 00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:16,280 Speaker 1: no matter what, that I needed to be humbled. And 398 00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:18,960 Speaker 1: I remember those people or they'll say, alright, keep doing 399 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:21,199 Speaker 1: what you're doing. Don't change enough. They're gonna ask you 400 00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:24,200 Speaker 1: to do this, do that, don't change nothing. I'm like, yes, ma'am, 401 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:26,479 Speaker 1: you know I'm gonna stay that path. And I just 402 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:29,640 Speaker 1: remember those people who say, remember the little people when 403 00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:31,920 Speaker 1: you get there. And it's cool because it's a bit 404 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:35,520 Speaker 1: back and forth because you have some elite people who 405 00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 1: want to feel that they're around other pompous people. UM. 406 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 1: But that's just not the way that I'm bringing it. 407 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:44,040 Speaker 1: God brings all success and we're lucky to get whatever 408 00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:46,240 Speaker 1: we get in the first place. And it's all about 409 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 1: loving people. So that's the greatest wealth any money that 410 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:53,040 Speaker 1: I ever got came from somebody.

I can't 459 00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:40,919 Speaker 1: necessarily say, like in releasing it, like oh man, this 460 00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:43,440 Speaker 1: is locked up. It wasn't like that for me because 461 00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:47,240 Speaker 1: there was so many business things that started to happen. 462 00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 1: This was my first project as an owner of K approved, 463 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:53,960 Speaker 1: E and T, which is, you know, my company. That's 464 00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 1: where I'm going to be releasing other artists so they 465 00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:57,639 Speaker 1: don't have to endure the things that I had to 466 00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:01,400 Speaker 1: endure to get where I am. So my attempt from 467 00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:04,199 Speaker 1: being independent and not being signed anymore than now in 468 00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:07,520 Speaker 1: this licensing situation with philth Thor and Ron Hill over 469 00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:10,240 Speaker 1: r c A, I I wanted to create a label 470 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 1: to when I saw the next Molley's and when I 471 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:15,000 Speaker 1: saw the next time and I could protected it. You know, 472 00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:18,119 Speaker 1: harvested and push it out. So the Book of Molly 473 00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:21,919 Speaker 1: was my first project from that licensing thing, and it 474 00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:29,240 Speaker 1: was difficult financially paying producers, uh publishing, of getting clearances 475 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:33,760 Speaker 1: on any samples, getting all musicians taken care of. It 476 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:36,920 Speaker 1: was cool because it's it's a blessing on a small level. 477 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:39,720 Speaker 1: But if you play piano on a John Legend song, 478 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:42,000 Speaker 1: how much money are you gonna ask for at the end? 479 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:44,520 Speaker 1: Get You're not gonna say no, it's okay, just give 480 00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:46,920 Speaker 1: me a hundred dollars.

So you went 496 00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:40,680 Speaker 1: from a talent to an entrepreneur, and that's important because 497 00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:44,119 Speaker 1: that allows you to collaborate and know what money you 498 00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:47,159 Speaker 1: would do properly or what makes you so much for 499 00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 1: noting that, that's so awesome for you to see and 500 00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:53,919 Speaker 1: and catch because I can only hope that that is 501 00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:55,919 Speaker 1: what happens, because a lot of people still see me 502 00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 1: as a talent. But you can only go so far 503 00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:01,879 Speaker 1: there without the property. And this is a huge step 504 00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:04,200 Speaker 1: for me. So you're right online and you can't really 505 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 1: make too many changes for people, yourself or the world 506 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:11,399 Speaker 1: from this the artist's position. So it's good to like 507 00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:13,359 Speaker 1: be in a position that you can make some things happen, 508 00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:15,200 Speaker 1: not for yourself but for you, you know the thing 509 00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:17,159 Speaker 1: about That's why that's why I created this show so 510 00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:20,040 Speaker 1: I can talk to individuals like you, Mala, because because 511 00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:23,280 Speaker 1: because as a talent or an individual who buys tickets 512 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:26,240 Speaker 1: or you can get caught up in the show business 513 00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:28,919 Speaker 1: other show and it can make you believe that you 514 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:31,879 Speaker 1: can't do that, or they tell you you can't do 515 00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:35,959 Speaker 1: that because it's so complicated. And so I could assure 516 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:38,240 Speaker 1: you when you was making this transition, it was a 517 00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:42,119 Speaker 1: lot of as they say, trepidation, fear, Yeah, you know, 518 00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:44,360 Speaker 1: go uh am, I gonna make a mistake. I don't 519 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 1: want to mess up. And then when you did it, 520 00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:49,200 Speaker 1: I remember I did a big my first neighborhood awards 521 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:53,000 Speaker 1: back in Los Angeles by two thousand three. When I 522 00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:56,080 Speaker 1: finished it, I realized, I said, I started crying because 523 00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:59,080 Speaker 1: of the fact that all along I could have done 524 00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:02,080 Speaker 1: this when I had been told I couldn't do it 525 00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:04,920 Speaker 1: because it was so hard to do. And so when 526 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:07,479 Speaker 1: I hear you saying, man, it was a lot of stress, 527 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 1: it was like, that's part of the process of walking 528 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:14,600 Speaker 1: through fire. Yeah, and you do it again and again 529 00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:17,840 Speaker 1: and again, and guess what, it's not because it's easier 530 00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:21,680 Speaker 1: because you trust yourself, right. And that's why we're trying 531 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:23,600 Speaker 1: to get that. When I'm talking to you as a 532 00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:26,920 Speaker 1: person who said, look what, I won't be pigeonholed because 533 00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:29,159 Speaker 1: I want to know what it feels like to do 534 00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:31,000 Speaker 1: R and B music. I want to know what to 535 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:33,320 Speaker 1: feel like do rock music. I wanted to feel hip 536 00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 1: hop music because guess what, then I understand my value. 537 00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:39,960 Speaker 1: And that's all this conversation about is about your value. 538 00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:42,120 Speaker 1: The first time I met you, I always felt I 539 00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:45,400 Speaker 1: was talking to a uniquely different individual because you value 540 00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:48,080 Speaker 1: things differently. And now you tell me you've been doing 541 00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:50,720 Speaker 1: this since you were eleven years old, I appreciate and 542 00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:54,280 Speaker 1: respect you even more. Man, I'm grateful for that, all right. 543 00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:58,160 Speaker 1: Was blessed to be able to have those responsibilities, and 544 00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 1: you just nailed it. I'm know, honor, that you've been 545 00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:04,520 Speaker 1: seeing and following what I've been able to do, because 546 00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:06,520 Speaker 1: I can only hope that is that a lot of times, 547 00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 1: you know, as you said, we think with myself and 548 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:11,320 Speaker 1: that people miss it. So it's really cool to see. 549 00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:13,920 Speaker 1: But all of the positions were necessary. The first one 550 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,720 Speaker 1: was a servant leader. My mother was doing a lot 551 00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:20,160 Speaker 1: of the management with Holly Carter. I was young. I 552 00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:23,520 Speaker 1: had confidence in the music, but not necessarily confidence in 553 00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:26,240 Speaker 1: the meeting room, so I wouldn't speak much. I was 554 00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:28,800 Speaker 1: also directed and told not to speak much. How have 555 00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:30,600 Speaker 1: I started noticing that at the end of the day, 556 00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:33,160 Speaker 1: I had the final say. So if I had the 557 00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:35,240 Speaker 1: final say, I started trying to work my way into 558 00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:38,120 Speaker 1: getting the first say, and you know, versus it kind 559 00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:40,120 Speaker 1: of going all the way through and it me seeming 560 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:42,640 Speaker 1: like it's not that. But at the end of the day, 561 00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:43,920 Speaker 1: that's the only way that I can keep it in 562 00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:45,600 Speaker 1: God's hands. That's the only way that I can keep 563 00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:48,400 Speaker 1: the integrity of my anointing clear. If I wasn't in 564 00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:50,920 Speaker 1: a situation where I can control these things, people will 565 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:53,840 Speaker 1: continue to say, even in churches, Molly, we want you 566 00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:56,200 Speaker 1: to sing, but don't sing this song, don't say this, 567 00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:59,520 Speaker 1: don't be this, don't act like this. Once I started 568 00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:01,560 Speaker 1: recognized sizing and seeing that that's what was going to 569 00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:03,720 Speaker 1: happen early in gospel, I knew it was time to 570 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:05,560 Speaker 1: get out because there was no way to be what 571 00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:08,880 Speaker 1: I was without the housekeepers of the places I was 572 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:11,280 Speaker 1: going to sing at protecting their people, right, and they 573 00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:14,080 Speaker 1: protect their people from me. So I'm like, well, I 574 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:15,400 Speaker 1: just got to get out so I could go ahead 575 00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:17,680 Speaker 1: and be everything that God said and then you guys 576 00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:19,880 Speaker 1: don't have to worry about what you're telling me not 577 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:22,000 Speaker 1: to do. And it worked out in spite of a 578 00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:25,360 Speaker 1: world of people, a whole wave of creative people, and 579 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:27,280 Speaker 1: it's caused me to not be able to stop even 580 00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:29,800 Speaker 1: when the world stops. During the pandemic, I was a 581 00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:35,080 Speaker 1: visualizing myself as a Joseph, like, Okay, well, everybody may 582 00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:36,800 Speaker 1: not be able to get the best of what they 583 00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:39,880 Speaker 1: wanted or liked while everything was flowing, but they could 584 00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:43,400 Speaker 1: at least get this weak They could at least get something. 585 00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:45,840 Speaker 1: And uh, and I have it stored up, so how 586 00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 1: can I bring it out? I already have an album out? 587 00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:50,880 Speaker 1: How can I release the more? In partner with other people? 588 00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:55,560 Speaker 1: And keep saying And it worked, COVID shutdown music, shut 589 00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:59,320 Speaker 1: down live, shut down tour dates. Now we got new music. 590 00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:02,360 Speaker 1: We got two days coming of tell us how one 591 00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:05,160 Speaker 1: is going to play youself out for oh man? It's 592 00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:09,400 Speaker 1: so packed and stacked and a lot of my colleagues 593 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:12,400 Speaker 1: are excited because they're saying that this is what they wanted. 594 00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:16,400 Speaker 1: But during the pandemic, I recognize that I did not 595 00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:20,120 Speaker 1: want to make my money on the road, primarily maybe 596 00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:22,360 Speaker 1: when I was younger and all this stuff like that, 597 00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:24,640 Speaker 1: And I get opportunities to sing and travel now because 598 00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:26,720 Speaker 1: I really want to see my people, and I love 599 00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:32,840 Speaker 1: the stage. Um, However, as a soul, you know, commodity 600 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:35,040 Speaker 1: or a stream of income, I don't feel like it's 601 00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:37,960 Speaker 1: the ways. Uh, there's so many ways to make a 602 00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:41,080 Speaker 1: thousand dollars, ten thousand dollars overnight if you can get 603 00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:45,760 Speaker 1: the education and look versus waiting a whole month stressing 604 00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:49,280 Speaker 1: your body and banging your body to gain five thousand dollars. 605 00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:54,040 Speaker 1: You know here seven thousand dollars there. Sitting down forced 606 00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:56,880 Speaker 1: me to say, Okay, this is God's way of taking 607 00:31:56,920 --> 00:32:00,560 Speaker 1: everybody's strongestinct from them. So this is a year for 608 00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:04,360 Speaker 1: us to adopt and adapt new hobbies. And I used 609 00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:07,320 Speaker 1: it to create new strings of income just in case 610 00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:09,400 Speaker 1: the ones that closed and never came back. So now 611 00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:12,520 Speaker 1: I created five, and then the five I had came back, 612 00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:15,000 Speaker 1: and I was ten strings of income, and you know, 613 00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:16,760 Speaker 1: it's a really crazy thing, and I wanted to make 614 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:19,280 Speaker 1: sure that the other five had nothing to do with music. 615 00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:22,960 Speaker 1: So now when I sing, I primarily used the increase 616 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:25,840 Speaker 1: that I get from singing to tap into another entrepreneur 617 00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:29,480 Speaker 1: mine to be able to buy stocks or invest in 618 00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:33,520 Speaker 1: juices or milk or something that the stores are buying 619 00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:37,080 Speaker 1: so that I'm making money without being great. Get what 620 00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:40,960 Speaker 1: I'm saying, Well, you know, I because I'm I look 621 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:44,640 Speaker 1: at the I went back and I told my stockbroker. 622 00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:46,840 Speaker 1: I said, no, no, no, don't put me in a fund. 623 00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:49,000 Speaker 1: I said, I'm gonna tell you what I want to buy. 624 00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:51,640 Speaker 1: I picked our ten stocks that I said, these ones 625 00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:54,440 Speaker 1: I want to buy. Oh, you know, I would have 626 00:32:54,480 --> 00:33:00,320 Speaker 1: loved been in that. But trust myself, and yeah, I 627 00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:03,000 Speaker 1: never trust myself. And so but I want to close 628 00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:07,160 Speaker 1: and sing this about you is that you know, we've 629 00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:11,240 Speaker 1: seen everybody as we go back live and thinning, and 630 00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:14,200 Speaker 1: we've seen an over groundswell of people wanted to see 631 00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:17,880 Speaker 1: live events, you know, people concerts selling out the two 632 00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:20,320 Speaker 1: or three shows, comedy shows. I think this is going 633 00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:23,560 Speaker 1: to be such a unique moment for you, Molly, because 634 00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:26,800 Speaker 1: to be able, this is the annointing time I think 635 00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:29,120 Speaker 1: for individuals like you to get out there not only 636 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:31,640 Speaker 1: to deliver your music, but to hear people wanted to 637 00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:34,120 Speaker 1: receive it. And I just think it's gonna be a 638 00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:37,160 Speaker 1: great year for you, man, and I respect so much 639 00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:40,240 Speaker 1: what you've accomplished in the past.

I just don't want to take any credit 643 00:33:56,880 --> 00:33:59,320 Speaker 1: for it because I can mess it up with human frustration, 644 00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:02,360 Speaker 1: let me tation all this stuff like that. But I 645 00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:05,320 Speaker 1: do feel like it's a last of events, so I 646 00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:07,200 Speaker 1: don't want to just keep saying to everybody, this is 647 00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:12,360 Speaker 1: the time for stories, plays, short short stuff, conversations like 648 00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:14,919 Speaker 1: this on stage. It's time for people to, I guess, 649 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:18,120 Speaker 1: feel what it feels like to be around people again. 650 00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:22,600 Speaker 1: And if we're creative in making events that are new, 651 00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:26,400 Speaker 1: then we could just continue to That's what I'm talking about. This, 652 00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:29,799 Speaker 1: that's all I'm talking about, because you know, because when 653 00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:31,600 Speaker 1: you were talking about you know, you know you make 654 00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:33,440 Speaker 1: five thousand and we I know we got that. But 655 00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:36,080 Speaker 1: the basis of what we do in gospel is emotion. 656 00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:39,840 Speaker 1: It's driven by opportunities, It's driven by blessing and the 657 00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:43,360 Speaker 1: fact that you're about to step out into the world 658 00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:46,719 Speaker 1: and be received again and people are about to understand 659 00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:49,840 Speaker 1: the value of the Holy Spirit.
