I'm happy to be here. 66 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 3: Debut album, Yeah, but like you've been, I feel like 67 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 3: your music has been so big, but this is your 68 00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 3: technical like first album. 69 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:36,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, it is my first album ever. 70 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:38,480 Speaker 5: Which is weird though, because I feel like on one 71 00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 5: on one side, I feel like it's like deja vu 72 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,079 Speaker 5: in away, But on the other side, I'm like, Okay, 73 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 5: technically I have never put out an album, so I've 74 00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 5: been it's like weird to say that like an album. 75 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:51,239 Speaker 5: I've been used to say an EP, which is different. 76 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 5: It's different but similar to what is. 77 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 4: The difference What do you think the difference is between 78 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 4: the EP and an actual album. 79 00:02:57,320 --> 00:02:59,919 Speaker 5: I think honestly the weight that they hold. I mean, 80 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:03,079 Speaker 5: an EP is like a feeler, it's a little safer, 81 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 5: it's a little like less serious, and then an album 82 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 5: is like, you know, it's a chapter. You really respect 83 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:14,079 Speaker 5: it as an entire project. And then there's like a 84 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 5: way more serious like rollout, and there's way more intentions 85 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,080 Speaker 5: behind it. I feel like with my EP, there were 86 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 5: no expectations, and now with my album, I have so 87 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 5: many expectations me myself and then of course. 88 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:25,360 Speaker 2: Like the world. 89 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:27,280 Speaker 1: And that's why the label should send it to people, 90 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:31,359 Speaker 1: especially radio stations before they do interviews. Lauren, you say 91 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 1: what you said before Coco Walking, You keep that better, 92 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:34,360 Speaker 1: keep that same energy. 93 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 3: No, no, I have the first of all, I said 94 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 3: it all in love, so it's gonna be said. But 95 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 3: I'm making sure Jess has the album's research that we 96 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 3: had because I do want to talk about it because 97 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 3: what I feel like happens with you is you have 98 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 3: these big moments like I see you, and when those 99 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 3: things drop, it's everything Coco Jones and we as fans 100 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 3: feel like you are such a prize to R and 101 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 3: B and what you do. You deserve that consistently, but 102 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 3: then when things like today happen that if I didn't push, 103 00:03:58,800 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 3: we wouldn't be. 104 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 2: Doing this, and you deserve that moment. 105 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 3: It's unfair to you, and I think that that's sometimes 106 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 3: why as a fan, we feel like your music like suffers, 107 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 3: like we have to like search for more than just 108 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 3: like the clickie stuff. And you know, like even in 109 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 3: listening to the music, I was happy we got to 110 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 3: listen to it, even though I only got the five songs, 111 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:15,840 Speaker 3: because I could even feel in your music this is 112 00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 3: different because to me, it's like you're more into yourself. 113 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 2: There's a lot more like sexual conversation. If you're a woman. 114 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 3: You're here, and I know that that's what you want 115 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:25,360 Speaker 3: people to see you as because you've worked so hard. 116 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 3: I don't think sometimes that the way that things appear 117 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 3: to us as fans, that they're set up. You get that, 118 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 3: and I don't think it's fair to you. That's what 119 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:33,360 Speaker 3: I said before you came in here. 120 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:35,799 Speaker 2: I could definitely understand that perspective. 121 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:38,479 Speaker 5: I feel like also though, like there's just so much 122 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 5: out every freaking day, you know, so in general, it's 123 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:45,279 Speaker 5: like who has the real formula. 124 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 2: To put everyone's eyes on that one thing all the time. 125 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 5: If so, then everyone would copy that and then that 126 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 5: would be a wash, you know what I'm saying. So 127 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 5: I'm like, there really is no formula. I can understand that, 128 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 5: but I'm like, I don't even know what to tell 129 00:04:57,800 --> 00:04:58,160 Speaker 5: people to do. 130 00:04:58,320 --> 00:04:58,840 Speaker 2: The people lot. 131 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,360 Speaker 5: I'm seeing what they're supposed to do because I'm looking 132 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:03,160 Speaker 5: at you right there.
