And 79 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 1: his career began at eighteen, he was in a group 80 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:36,280 Speaker 1: and they won an R and B composition at Showtime 81 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 1: Showtime of the Apollo Fast Forward drops brown Sugar, which 82 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:44,359 Speaker 1: is like his debut that debuted his debut album that 83 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 1: debut number six on the Billboard chart and went platinum 84 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:50,240 Speaker 1: back in nineteen ninety six.

I mean that song. Even as I'm 88 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:02,599 Speaker 1: talking about that song, you just hear it. Like I 89 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:08,279 Speaker 1: think the music of a certain time really illustrates your life, 90 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:11,239 Speaker 1: no matter what your age is. Like the old heads, 91 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 1: like the OG's always like y'all wasn't outside y'all don't 92 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:15,880 Speaker 1: even understand the feeling. But I think, you know, we 93 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 1: might not have been around when the songs were charting, 94 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 1: and like the artists were really you know, running around 95 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:22,280 Speaker 1: and it was new and they were breaking and they 96 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 1: were getting the world to love it. But good music 97 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 1: has lasted, and good art last generations the generation, and 98 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:32,159 Speaker 1: that's what that's what made me think about the story 99 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:37,279 Speaker 1: that I heard Erica, but BA do tell about working 100 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:41,040 Speaker 1: within that collective and just wanting to, you know, throw 101 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:42,839 Speaker 1: your art not even at the wall and see if 102 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:45,880 Speaker 1: it's stuck, but within a group of your peers that 103 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 1: you respected, and all of those people have created things 104 00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:55,160 Speaker 1: and brands and conversations that have impacted, touch and influenced 105 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:57,920 Speaker 1: people for generations to come. Because I gotta I get 106 00:05:57,920 --> 00:05:59,599 Speaker 1: a feeling when I hear Brown Sugar, and I have 107 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:02,559 Speaker 1: been also to the Brown Sugar movie is my favorite movie. 108 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:07,919 Speaker 1: But yeah, I just you know it. It's always one 109 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:09,799 Speaker 1: of those things that you think about as a person 110 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 1: that is creating something that you're putting into the world. 111 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:19,320 Speaker 1: Conversation is my art at this point SI music not 112 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:23,599 Speaker 1: a music artist, but I always think about how is 113 00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:28,280 Speaker 1: what I'm doing impacting people? And when you see and 114 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 1: it's sad though that you really had this conversation about 115 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 1: a lot of people once they're not here anymore. But 116 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,560 Speaker 1: I won't go down that rabbit hole. I just yesterday 117 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 1: when I was seeing a lot of the you know, 118 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:45,200 Speaker 1: outpouring of artists that we're talking about how what Dangelo 119 00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:49,680 Speaker 1: did in his career just by waking up and being 120 00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:53,480 Speaker 1: himself and deciding to explore instruments and show the world 121 00:06:53,560 --> 00:07:00,599 Speaker 1: that and explore you know, his sex appeal, his his neo, 122 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 1: so all the things like how it has impacted so 123 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 1: many people. So, you know, making sure we send a 124 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,520 Speaker 1: rest in peace to him, some love to the family, 125 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 1: to his family. Yeah, the only right way to start 126 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,200 Speaker 1: off an episode on a day like today is to 127 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 1: do that, is to take that time. Now. In other news, 128 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 1: as we shift gears, there's been a new announcement Netflix 129 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 1: is getting into the podcasting business. Now you're probably like, what, 130 00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:37,600 Speaker 1: Like I hear so many people say please defund the 131 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 1: podcast mics. Too many people have podcast mics. And then 132 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 1: you get this story about Netflix getting into the podcast 133 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 1: of business because they just in ink to deal with Spotify. 134 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 1: It doesn't mean that they're gonna run around giving everybody 135 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 1: more podcasts. Spotify is already doing that black effect. Does 136 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 1: it better shout out to you know, ganggang. But what 137 00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 1: is gonna happen is major podcasts with viewership with the video. 138 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 1: Netflix is going to come in and say, come on 139 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 1: over here, we got a home for y'all, and how's 140 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 1: the video podcast? And this is interesting to me because 141 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 1: you guys know, and I've talked about this and you know, 142 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 1: several different conversations here on the podcast. When I went 143 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:19,760 Speaker 1: to Memphis to the podcast fest, the pot Box Podcast 144 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 1: Festival in Memphis, one of the things I talked about 145 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,040 Speaker 1: was and when I got in the you know, got 146 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 1: into all of this podcasting because of the latest with 147 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 1: Lon La Rosa, I didn't really understand the like, what 148 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 1: was the big deal about the audio? For me, I'm 149 00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:38,599 Speaker 1: a visual person. I like to see things. I like 150 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 1: to see people's reactions. I like to see the laugh, 151 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:45,960 Speaker 1: the upset, the cries. Like I just attached to things 152 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 1: I can see. I like to see the coloring, the 153 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 1: you know all of that podcasts that are only audio, 154 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:55,920 Speaker 1: I can't really think of too many of them. Besides, 155 00:08:56,200 --> 00:09:01,440 Speaker 1: I will say The Read, The Read, and not necessarily recently, 156 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:04,199 Speaker 1: but I remember The Read being one of the first 157 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:09,000 Speaker 1: podcasts years ago that I was actually listening to religiously. 158 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:10,560 Speaker 1: And I don't even know what the people look like 159 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 1: because I could only listen to it. And even right now, 160 00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 1: as I'm talking about The Read, I don't think about 161 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 1: what the hosts look like. I think about what their 162 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 1: art of their podcast is, you know, the two head 163 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 1: figures that like pinkish salmon color, like it's branded around 164 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 1: just the art of the podcast because they never had video. 165 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 1: They still don't have video. Crystal who now has stepped 166 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 1: off and she's doing her own podcast that will be video, 167 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 1: but they've never had video. And it's very successful podcast. 168 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 1: But I didn't really understand, you know, what the business 169 00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 1: was behind the audio. So I feel like I'm learning 170 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 1: that as I'm going and I really begin to understand 171 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 1: that with us and our success here at the Latest 172 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:57,440 Speaker 1: with Lona Rosa. But I always thought video was like 173 00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 1: the utmost and foremost important and then I kind of 174 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 1: took a step back from that. Y'all know, we're back. 175 00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:05,959 Speaker 1: We do have a video component. But when I saw 176 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:11,679 Speaker 1: this Netflix deal with Spotify, I'm like, yeah, there it is. 177 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 1: That's why, because I mean, you're it's always been a 178 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 1: thing that you can do deals for the video side 179 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 1: of your podcast with networks and like all the people. 180 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 1: But for a big platform like Netflix, it be like, 181 00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 1: come here, we need to be in business with y'all. 182 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:29,199 Speaker 1: That means that there is growth happening on the video 183 00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:31,960 Speaker 1: side of podcasts, and it's possibly growing to not just 184 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:35,880 Speaker 1: be a marketing tool, but an actual force in podcasting 185 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 1: because audio is a force. Like I can't even describe 186 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:44,320 Speaker 1: to you guys how much audio from the radio to 187 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:49,319 Speaker 1: podcasting has changed my whole life in three sixty five, 188 00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:54,439 Speaker 1: but it really has. And now I'm reading this article 189 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 1: and I'm hearing from you know, the execs at Netflix 190 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 1: and Ted Sarandos, who is the co CEO of Netflix. 191 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 1: He gave Deadline a quote when they made this announcement. 192 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 1: He says, as a popularity of video podcasts grow, I 193 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:12,440 Speaker 1: suspect you'll see some of them find their way to 194 00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:16,320 Speaker 1: Netflix and then they have some information here in the 195 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:20,080 Speaker 1: article that says last year, Spotify founder and CEO Daniel 196 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:23,360 Speaker 1: Ck said that the number of creators publishing video on 197 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:27,240 Speaker 1: Spotify had grown by more than fifty percent year on year. 198 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 1: So with this deal, we will now see Spotify produce 199 00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:33,800 Speaker 1: series from its Spotify studios and the Ringer launch on 200 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 1: another platform. One of these shows that will be coming 201 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:41,720 Speaker 1: on over to Netflix is the Bill Simmons Podcast. Anytime 202 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:45,560 Speaker 1: you see something like this where a major platform is 203 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 1: reevaluating their business structure and bringing something in because it's growing, 204 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:56,120 Speaker 1: that means that there's about to be such a centered 205 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 1: focus around just that. And don't get me wrong, podcasts 206 00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 1: or that they everybody's got one. Everybody. There's a lot 207 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:07,600 Speaker 1: of people who only do video podcasts, right, they don't 208 00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:10,679 Speaker 1: even they're not focused on the audio. For a long time, 209 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,720 Speaker 1: you know, that has been the that's been a big 210 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:15,760 Speaker 1: no no to not be focused on audio. And I 211 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 1: still think with Netflix getting in the game, that'll still 212 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 1: be a thing. Like I think the way that podcasts, uh, 213 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:28,199 Speaker 1: the way that podcasts. The way that podcasts have been 214 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 1: set up and positioned, audio is literally become like a 215 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:38,240 Speaker 1: daily part of people's lives. It's not live like radio. 216 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,080 Speaker 1: And I've learned that radio is that it's a daily 217 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:43,720 Speaker 1: part of people's lives, but it's live, like you can 218 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 1: turn you on and hear me while you're headed to 219 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 1: your job. Right. Podcasting is that, but it's a bit 220 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:52,559 Speaker 1: more like schedule. You maybe get them once a week, 221 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:55,320 Speaker 1: you know, maybe twice a month the latest to Lana 222 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 1: Roads that we are every day and I try to 223 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:01,559 Speaker 1: keep up with It's like I don't like doing anything 224 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:03,960 Speaker 1: that is going to date itself that may seem old, 225 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,440 Speaker 1: because I want to get as close to in the 226 00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 1: now as I can because of what I've experienced with growth, 227 00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 1: like just from being on the radio and being in 228 00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:17,439 Speaker 1: that space. I say all that to say, I don't 229 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:19,719 Speaker 1: think the way that people connect with audio, and they're 230 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 1: very intimate and personal moments, whether you're in the car 231 00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:25,040 Speaker 1: with your children or you know, you got something in 232 00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,600 Speaker 1: your ears while you're cleaning up. I don't think that 233 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:30,080 Speaker 1: there's anything that can trump that, to be honest with you, 234 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:33,840 Speaker 1: not podcasts that have been here and that have built 235 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:40,560 Speaker 1: really strong listener foundations. However, I do think with the 236 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:44,840 Speaker 1: right platform aka Netflix behind it, the right brands that 237 00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 1: will come because not only do these podcasts that are 238 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:50,080 Speaker 1: coming over already have their own numbers, but Netflix is 239 00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:54,200 Speaker 1: going to bring a whole other level of advertising podcast video. 240 00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 1: In my opinion, on a major streamer like a Netflix, 241 00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:03,880 Speaker 1: it's good. It can potentially if done right, it could 242 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:08,240 Speaker 1: potentially take over talk shows in the TV space, which 243 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 1: I will say there's always been reports about how well 244 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:13,200 Speaker 1: talk shows in the TV space are doing, whether it's 245 00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:16,480 Speaker 1: daytime talk show or nighttime talk shows. Right, but imagine 246 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:21,239 Speaker 1: if your favorite streamer, your favorite your favorite streaming platform 247 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:24,480 Speaker 1: aired a daily talk show that kept you up to 248 00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 1: date with whatever it is you love to know about 249 00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:31,280 Speaker 1: the same way your favorite local CBS or ABC or 250 00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:35,000 Speaker 1: you know, Fox channel did. That's where I always when 251 00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:37,960 Speaker 1: I thought about, you know, a podcast and a show, 252 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:41,440 Speaker 1: That's what I always thought. I wasn't audio focused first 253 00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:43,640 Speaker 1: until I got in it and realized the impact of it. 254 00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:46,320 Speaker 1: But coming into this, I was always like, if we 255 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 1: build out the video, we can end up on a 256 00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 1: streaming platform because that's where people are and people used 257 00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 1: to like even when people ask me, like, what's your goal, 258 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 1: and I'm like, one of my goals and storytelling is 259 00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:59,480 Speaker 1: to have a TV show and to be on TV 260 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 1: not just as a talk show host, but as an 261 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 1: actress and all these things. When I'm thinking about it, 262 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:07,560 Speaker 1: I'm like, it's not TV, though not in a general 263 00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:10,240 Speaker 1: and like traditional way that we think of a TV 264 00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:13,880 Speaker 1: show or if I'm acting in a TV series, It's 265 00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:18,120 Speaker 1: like it's streaming. But think about how many daily talk 266 00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:23,320 Speaker 1: shows you have on streaming platforms. This is going to 267 00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 1: unlock a new character. Netflix is onto something here, I 268 00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:29,640 Speaker 1: do think, and I'm interested to see. I was reading 269 00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:32,080 Speaker 1: some of the shows that they have and that they 270 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 1: will be leaning to in this you know, first round 271 00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:36,720 Speaker 1: of this partnership. I do think it's going to be 272 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 1: interesting to see what show served best from Spotify and 273 00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:45,720 Speaker 1: or YouTube and you know audio and just doing video 274 00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 1: as like their marketing piece and a visual piece now 275 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:52,400 Speaker 1: coming over to Netflix. But I'm also interested to see 276 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:54,840 Speaker 1: who's the first platform that's going to do it in 277 00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:57,560 Speaker 1: a way where we can watch it live. Like imagine 278 00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:00,560 Speaker 1: if you take like a Wendy Williams stole show, a 279 00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:03,920 Speaker 1: Ladies with Laura l Roza and you put that show 280 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 1: daily on a streaming platform, but you do it live 281 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 1: with a live audience, so you're able to watch me 282 00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:17,520 Speaker 1: on your favorite streaming or your Netflix, Amazon Prime. And 283 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:21,480 Speaker 1: then whenever you miss the live episodes, it's just like 284 00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:24,040 Speaker 1: on demand essentially, but it's meeting people where they already are, 285 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:26,960 Speaker 1: which is streaming. Whenever you miss my live episode, you 286 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:29,480 Speaker 1: go back and you binge via Netflix or via Amazon 287 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:34,520 Speaker 1: Prime to be wherever. So we look, who knows I'm 288 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 1: over here trying to speak things into existence. But more so, 289 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:42,640 Speaker 1: what do you guys think? Where does this new partnership 290 00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:45,720 Speaker 1: with Netflix and Spotify? Where does this end us in 291 00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:49,640 Speaker 1: a year we'll talk shows and TV shows be as 292 00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 1: relevant or will everybody be going to streaming for those 293 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,160 Speaker 1: two I want to know. Get out there in the 294 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 1: streets and the tweets. Let me know how y'all feeling. 295 00:16:56,280 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 1: It's Laurna l Roza outside, We outside every other page. 296 00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:04,840 Speaker 1: This is the latest with Lona Rosa. And at the 297 00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:07,080 Speaker 1: end of the day, y'all could be anywhere with anybody 298 00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:09,920 Speaker 1: listening to all these things, talking about all these things, 299 00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:12,240 Speaker 1: But lowriders, y'all choose to be right here with me, 300 00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:14,720 Speaker 1: and I appreciate y'all for that. I will see you 301 00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:15,880 Speaker 1: in my next episode.
