00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:54,040

48
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:26,080
Speaker 1: that's what you start showing people. Yeah, yeah, well I didn't.

49
00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:29,200
Speaker 1: I didn't, so I didn't know really what I was

50
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 1: doing like that. I had equipment DJ equipment at my

51
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:35,440
Speaker 1: house for like, if I had a party, I would

52
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:37,720
Speaker 1: like I ask one of my DJ friends to come

53
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:41,120
Speaker 1: over and play for everybody that was there. So I

54
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:44,640
Speaker 1: had equipment sitting there. When when the pandemic hit, I

55
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,600
Speaker 1: just kept looking at it and just like just staring

56
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:50,640
Speaker 1: at it, like man, I'm just gonna let this sit here,

57
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 1: or what I'm gonna do. But then dan Ice went

58
00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 1: live and he blew up so big that I began

59
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:03,480
Speaker 1: doing parodies of him, like just playing around and acting

60
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 1: like I was him. And then one day I just

61
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,200
Speaker 1: started playing music that I had and every and I

62
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 1: was like trying to DJ, and everybody's like you horrible,

63
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:17,839
Speaker 1: don't put your day job, boys, stay stay doing jokes.

64
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 1: And the way I was blending like this, how all

65
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:27,919
Speaker 1: my blend stuted? They were just every nothing, nothing, nothing,

66
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:33,160
Speaker 1: nothing blending at all. But one thing people kept saying

67
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 1: was it was terrible. What's the book? But what was

68
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:40,240
Speaker 1: that song you just played? Taste? I kept hearing that

69
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:43,440
Speaker 1: call taste. Yeah, I just kept hearing boy, don't you

70
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,280
Speaker 1: don't you DJ, you are the worst. But who made

71
00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:49,240
Speaker 1: that song? Yeah? And I'll be like, oh, you know

72
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:52,360
Speaker 1: that was Brenda Russell. You know, that was her third album.

73
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:55,599
Speaker 1: And then they'll be like huh. Then that come in again, Yo,

74
00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:59,160
Speaker 1: who made that song? All lil Lewis nineteen eighty six,

75
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,480
Speaker 1: you know in Chicago, he made that. Yes, it's called

76
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:06,679
Speaker 1: French Kiss. I'd be like this, huh. I'd be like, anyway,

77
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,160
Speaker 1: I play another song, and then they'd be like, who

78
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:15,880
Speaker 1: was that first choice? You never never heard first first choice? No,

79
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:21,040
Speaker 1: oh yes, it's first choice anyway. So and it just

80
00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:24,600
Speaker 1: became this thing that he ever kept going, Oh this

81
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 1: dude knows.

82
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:32,280
Speaker 7: It, I know, because some people that know how to

83
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:33,640
Speaker 7: play it don't know it.

84
00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh really, and that's facts. And so I just

85
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:40,719
Speaker 1: kept playing this music that I've always had a collection

86
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:44,040
Speaker 1: of music my whole life, and I always in Chicago

87
00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 1: going up with house and disco and all of that,

88
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:51,520
Speaker 1: Like it was the more music you knew, Like that

89
00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,880
Speaker 1: was like meetings and things that you had connections with

90
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 1: people on music, you know, in Chicago, So you just

91
00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:01,719
Speaker 1: had collections of music. Everybody he basically did back then,

92
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:05,919
Speaker 1: and so I just have collections of music that I

93
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 1: always still to this day. I collect music.

94
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 2: You know.

95
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:11,840
Speaker 1: I have an other little thing that I do. Anytime

96
00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:14,320
Speaker 1: somebody drop an album, I don't care who it is,

97
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:17,520
Speaker 1: I'll listen to it and I'll choose the single before

98
00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:22,800
Speaker 1: they drop it. Like I just and I'm probably seventy

99
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:26,159
Speaker 1: percent right. I'll just listen to the whole album. I'd

100
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 1: be like, number four should be the single they drop,

101
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:30,880
Speaker 1: and number seven should be the next single they drop.

102
00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 1: That's great and it and then they'll drop the song

103
00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 1: and yeah. I remember with Gunna Gunna's last album, I

104
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:46,320
Speaker 1: was like that song who Who Getting uh? Yeah, yeah,

105
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 1: I remember hearing that and I was like, that's the

106
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:51,440
Speaker 1: first single. And then I was like, the second single

107
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 1: should be uh it was this other song you had

108
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 1: right out there, who Getting Fucked Tonight's this other single

109

Speaker 1: Can you can hear Jimmy? I just never I never

126
00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:01,240
Speaker 1: tried to claim that I was a DJ because I

127
00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 1: didn't want to. But that's a different skill. Yeah, I

128
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:05,800
Speaker 1: don't never want to take away from the DJ, but

129
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:08,680
Speaker 1: knowing the music, knowing the music, that's the gift.

130
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:09,400
Speaker 9: Yeah.

131
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:12,800
Speaker 1: Yeah. I went on to name that tune on Fox,

132
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 1: and I went against uh, what's her name, cat Cat Graham,

133
00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:20,720
Speaker 1: who has albums every day. I beat her. I beat her.

134
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:26,040
Speaker 10: I beat her, but look I did, I just but

135
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:30,760
Speaker 10: I was but again I was underestimated this.

136
00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:35,320
Speaker 1: Yeah. Anyway, so she did a thing and rehearsal, and

137
00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:38,360
Speaker 1: I was just sitting there and rehearsal. I was trying

138
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 1: to learn the game. So I really wasn't trying to

139
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 1: be precise about the music, and she just kept calling

140
00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:47,680
Speaker 1: out songs and stuff and I just sitting there like

141
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:49,480
Speaker 1: and I was learning the game. And then we got

142
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:56,319
Speaker 1: in the game just like kicking her ass. I knew

143
00:08:56,320 --> 00:09:03,720
Speaker 1: all these songs, man, and it's just all violence before

144
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:13,880
Speaker 1: hundred is crazy symphony. Yeah man. So yeah, like I said,

145
00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:16,480
Speaker 1: it's just always been a hobby man with this, with

146
00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 1: this music, man. And like I said, when I was

147
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 1: playing during the pandemic, I knew something was happening because

148
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:28,439
Speaker 1: people started really chiming in on me playing and really

149
00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 1: listening from all over the world. You really don't think

150
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:33,720
Speaker 1: about that when you're in your living room, right, you

151
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:39,320
Speaker 1: know what I mean. We've never said hi from Belgium.

152
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:48,040
Speaker 1: Yeah right, yeahs out there right. People was like just

153
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:52,520
Speaker 1: tuning in. And I learned enough to blend records good

154
00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:56,000
Speaker 1: enough where you know, it stayed on beat or whatever.

155
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 1: But then I remember one day, this one I knew

156
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:03,160

289
00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:24,160

290
00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:27,359
Speaker 1: just my perspective on things and how I thought about it,

291
00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:31,560
Speaker 1: and that was just it, like pure, point blank, that's

292
00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:34,840
Speaker 1: how I thought of it. And that's what makes great comics.

00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:39,200
Speaker 1: It's like there's some comedians man may be rocking shows

294
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:42,760
Speaker 1: telling all kind of jokes, but then after the show

295
00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:46,840
Speaker 1: is overwhere you can't quote one joke because because you

296
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:50,040
Speaker 1: didn't you didn't know who was telling it. They never

297

00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:38,159
Speaker 4: So you go, you go through this cavalry show and

336
00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:44,720
Speaker 4: you get hooked. Now is it time to do homework

337
00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:50,879
Speaker 4: and really figure out figure out what your style is

338
00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:53,960
Speaker 4: going to be, what your perspective is going to be,

339
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:58,159
Speaker 4: your Kate, it's your delivery, like you your presence on

340
00:21:58,400 --> 00:21:59,240
Speaker 4: like all of these things.

341
00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:02,160
Speaker 1: Are you now die into that part of it. First

342
00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:06,720
Speaker 1: of all, I was dealing with how quick this was

343
00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:09,160
Speaker 1: taking off, you know what I mean? Because I kept

344
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:11,359
Speaker 1: doing the same five minutes and it was just like

345
00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:14,399
Speaker 1: killing everybody. So I just was like, and there's no

346
00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:18,199
Speaker 1: camera phone, no camera phone, and I was killing And

347
00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:21,240
Speaker 1: so I would keep constantly doing the same five minutes

348
00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:24,720
Speaker 1: just everywhere I go. It's just killing perfect Now Yeah,

349
00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:29,040
Speaker 1: so now I'm going, oh, this is great. But the

350
00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:35,159
Speaker 1: lessons become from the act of the more you do it,

351
00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:37,359
Speaker 1: the more you learn what you shouldn't be doing, don't

352
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:40,000
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? That go with anything anything,

353
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:43,840
Speaker 1: you you can't really be taught. You just have to

354
00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:45,520
Speaker 1: go through it and then you know what to do.

355
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:49,400
Speaker 1: Because I quickly found out I can't do the same

356
00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:55,399
Speaker 1: five minutes forever. How long were you performing at five minutes?

357
00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:58,159
Speaker 1: How long? Like I was doing that five minutes for

358
00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:03,919
Speaker 1: like probably like six months. Wow, seven became your hair record.

359
00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:09,080
Speaker 1: It was became your here. Yeah I could have. I

360
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:11,679
Speaker 1: could have wrote each joke tightle on the flyer, like

00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:18,240
Speaker 1: come here, come here, Come here to sunny Delight, you know,

362
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:22,000
Speaker 1: like all these different like bullet points that I could

363
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:24,399
Speaker 1: I could have put on that. But yeah, I was

364
00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:25,880
Speaker 1: doing that, and then it got to the point where

365
00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:28,800
Speaker 1: it's like, I like, one time I did the show

366
00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:30,680

370
00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:43,320

Speaker 1: was doing, he started doing it. He started doing my

372
00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:51,640
Speaker 1: last joke, and I was just sitting there looking at him.

399
00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:28,600
Speaker 1: You gotta do that. So I couldn't go outside for like,

400
00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:38,320
Speaker 1: because I go over there. I couldn't do no shows

401
00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:41,639
Speaker 1: at my grip because I threw a party and told

402
00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:44,399
Speaker 1: them about I was on tour, so I stayed in

403
00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:47,639
Speaker 1: the house for like two and a half weeks, because

404
00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:49,280
Speaker 1: that was how long I was supposed to have been gone.

405
00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:53,840
Speaker 1: I'm back, y'all with the jacket off. I used to

406
00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:56,440
Speaker 1: smoke cigarettes. I used to send people to go get

407
00:25:56,480 --> 00:26:04,800
Speaker 1: me cigarettes through two weeks. Man, After two weeks is

408
00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:07,360
Speaker 1: old way. I came out like yeah, everybody's like, yeah,

409
00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:10,240
Speaker 1: you back. I was like, yeah, yeah, I just got back,

410
00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:13,600
Speaker 1: you know. But at that moment, I was like, I

411
00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:16,159
Speaker 1: got it right. I was like, oh my god, I

412
00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:19,400
Speaker 1: got it right. Godly, I got it right. And then

413
00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:23,480
Speaker 1: I just unconsciously started writing and that writing and writing

414
00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:27,920
Speaker 1: and writing and writing to the point where people started comedians.

415
00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:31,359
Speaker 1: Not not really people. I wasn't sitting asses and seats,

416
00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:36,040
Speaker 1: but comedians was like, man, dude getting funny. Then one

417
00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:37,760
Speaker 1: day Ricky Smiley called me and was like, hell, I

418
00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:39,480
Speaker 1: want you to come down to Alabama and write these

419
00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:43,840
Speaker 1: crank call see these for me. I said, okay, yeah, sure,

420
00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:50,239
Speaker 1: he's still making money. We went down there and wrote that.

421
00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:53,280
Speaker 1: So you ain't getting no publishing, no nothing, no. Then

422
00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:56,800
Speaker 1: he ended up hosting Comicview. He was like, you should

423
00:26:56,800 --> 00:27:00,280
Speaker 1: come right Comic View, and I said, oh, okay, I

424
00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:05,280
Speaker 1: went and wrote it. Came back then years later. Next thing, Uh,

425
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:08,400
Speaker 1: I was writing for Conan mm hmm.

426
00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:11,080
Speaker 7: So did you get some residuals for comic you No,

427
00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:12,400
Speaker 7: because I'm gonna.

428
00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:13,560
Speaker 1: Keep keep following your trail.

429
00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:17,240
Speaker 7: No, no, no, no, no, I'm following the money man.

430
00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:22,639
Speaker 1: I'm trying to find the money man in the coming space.

431
00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:27,159
Speaker 1: Was like following the money like work for hire. Like

432
00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:31,160
Speaker 1: see back then, a lot a lot of comics was

433
00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:35,440
Speaker 1: protesting Comic View because they wasn't getting no money. But

434
00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:38,040
Speaker 1: there was a handful of comics that I was like,

435
00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:41,480
Speaker 1: like me. We was like, ship, We're gonna keep going

436
00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:44,520
Speaker 1: doing Comic View until we get a TV show. We

437
00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:47,320
Speaker 1: ain't got the right to look at the prote you

438
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:49,520
Speaker 1: know what I mean. And we ended up becoming household

439
00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:53,639
Speaker 1: names because because everybody else protested, and so we would

440
00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:56,160
Speaker 1: constantly do the show and they would constantly air us.

441
00:27:57,040 --> 00:27:58,360
Speaker 1: But it was no money.

442
00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:03,000
Speaker 4: Though on what you're protesting? Yeah, because where else are

443
00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:06,280
Speaker 4: you going to be seen or national telling? Nowhere? And

444
00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:07,760
Speaker 4: so we was like, forget that.

445
00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:12,280
Speaker 1: So we kept doing it, and then Ricky came and

446
00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:16,359
Speaker 1: we wrote for him, and then after that I wrote

447
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:20,960
Speaker 1: for a lot of other different like comedians. Some comedians

448
00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:23,879
Speaker 1: that I was there to write for, they didn't use

449
00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:25,879
Speaker 1: none of my stuff, but I was there to write

450
00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:29,120
Speaker 1: for them. And then other comics dead or you know,

451
00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:32,159
Speaker 1: stuff like that, and next thing I know, I was

452
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:36,240
Speaker 1: righting for Conan. And let me ask you a question

453
00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:36,760
Speaker 1: though about that.

454
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:40,240
Speaker 4: Though, So as a writer, when you when you writing

455
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:43,560
Speaker 4: jokes for other comics, because I know there's a thing,

456
00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:45,760
Speaker 4: you know, there was always a thing going around about

457
00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:47,120
Speaker 4: people stealing jokes.

458
00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:47,800
Speaker 1: And that kind of thing. Yeah.

459
00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:52,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, but since you are, in essence an author of

460
00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:55,959
Speaker 4: some of those jokes, do you get to take some

461
00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:57,760
Speaker 4: of those jokes with you.

462
00:28:57,760 --> 00:29:01,440
Speaker 1: No. Nah, Once you give them a joke, then stay.

463
00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:04,120
Speaker 1: And the way that I write, I write different, like

464
00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:09,840
Speaker 1: I have to be around you in order to see

465
00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:12,320
Speaker 1: what kind of person you are. And a lot of

466
00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:15,400
Speaker 1: times people are funny. They just don't know they funny.

467
00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:19,280
Speaker 1: You know, you gotta you gotta tell them what they said,

468
00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:22,880
Speaker 1: and you have to tell them how funny they are.

469
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:25,840
Speaker 1: You know. I wrote for Diddy and that was the

470
00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:31,240
Speaker 1: whole thing. I kind of really, I kind of really

471
00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:39,240
Speaker 1: like first of all, Chappelle Chapelle was like this, Hey,

00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:41,800
Speaker 1: Diddy looking for you, and I was like for what.

473
00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:43,400
Speaker 1: He was like, he wants you to write, want you

474
00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:45,080
Speaker 1: to write some stuff off. And I was like this,

475
00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:47,080
Speaker 1: oh okay. He was like yeah, I said you write

00:29:55,720 --> 00:30:00,640
Speaker 1: want you. Diddy, hit me up. I'm hosting the Billboard Awards.

480
00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:03,080
Speaker 1: You remember the Billboard when he was on that the

481
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:06,760
Speaker 1: Love album. He's like, Yo, I'm hosting the Billboard Awards,

482
00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:09,720
Speaker 1: and Yo, I remember you wrote some stuff for these

483
00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:13,520
Speaker 1: rock commercials and stuff. Come on, come on, come on, man,

484
00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:16,040
Speaker 1: you want can you write this? And I was like this, yeah, yeah, yeah,

485
00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:21,720
Speaker 1: let's go, let's do it. And man, it was crazy

486
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:28,480
Speaker 1: like writing. He's so demanding and so inspiring. You know Diddy, right,

487
00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:33,000
Speaker 1: He's so crazy, but he's so inspiring all the same time,

488
00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:36,080
Speaker 1: all at the same time. Dog like, I think I

489
00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:38,840
Speaker 1: quit like twice and I think they let me go once.

490
00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:50,240
Speaker 1: Was it was crazy, Yeah, He's gonna take you. But

491
00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:53,400
Speaker 1: the thing was, I remember the first meeting we had

492
00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:55,160
Speaker 1: was at his house and there was like some other

493
00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:56,960
Speaker 1: writers that was there or whatever, and they were just

494
00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:59,560
Speaker 1: talking going through what they was gonna do and what

495
00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:02,560
Speaker 1: they was going to write and the direction and all

496
00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:05,240
Speaker 1: of that, and then when it got to me, I

497
00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:08,200
Speaker 1: was like, I don't have no direction. I don't have

498
00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:10,360
Speaker 1: none of that. I said, this is what I'm gonna do.

499
00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:14,200
Speaker 1: You're a character within yourself, so I just need to

500
00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:16,200
Speaker 1: be around you, listening to you and the way that

501
00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:18,840
Speaker 1: you talk. I'm just gonna apply that to the monologue.

502
00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:21,080
Speaker 1: And I'm just gonna apply different words that you say

503
00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:23,840
Speaker 1: and everything I said. I think you said something earlier

504
00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:26,000
Speaker 1: where you were saying something about man, I just want

505
00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:29,040
Speaker 1: winnergy around. I was like, I'm gonna use that word

506
00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:31,680
Speaker 1: in the monologue. I ain't never heard nobody say winnergy,

507
00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:34,200
Speaker 1: so I'm gonna use that and some other things that

508
00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,120
Speaker 1: you've been saying. But I just need to listen to you,

509
00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:43,800
Speaker 1: and that's my formula. And he was like, you're gonna

510
00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:47,440
Speaker 1: be with me every day, and I was like okay,

511
00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:53,680
Speaker 1: And like almost every other day I was like around him,

512
00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:57,840
Speaker 1: just listening to him talk and all this su stuff.

513
00:31:57,840 --> 00:31:59,640
Speaker 1: And I would write stuff send it to him. He'll

514
00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:02,240
Speaker 1: be like like, yeah, that's cool, and then they'll be like, nah,

515
00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:05,480
Speaker 1: that's horrible. Then I'd be like, Okay. One time I

516
00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:08,080
Speaker 1: sent them some stuff, he was like, this is the

517
00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:11,520
Speaker 1: best shit. Ever, then the next day he was like, nah,

518
00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:14,520
Speaker 1: this shit is terrible, and I was like and I

519
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:16,840
Speaker 1: just took it, and I was like, I got a

520
00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:18,960
Speaker 1: show I need to prepare for. I ain't worried about

521
00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:21,640
Speaker 1: this shit, and I just didn't write nothing else. And

522
00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:25,120
Speaker 1: then the next day after that he was like, all right,

523
00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:27,480
Speaker 1: what y'all got, and I just I ain't had nothing new,

524
00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:29,320
Speaker 1: so I just gave him what I have from the

525
00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:32,960
Speaker 1: other day. He was like, this is amazing, the same shit,

526
00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:39,600
Speaker 1: and I was like, I was like, all right, but yo,

527
00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:43,800
Speaker 1: it was just me listening to him applying himself to

528
00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:47,680
Speaker 1: the monologue, and yeah, that's what I do. Like if

529
00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:49,600
Speaker 1: I was around y'all and it was something like if

530
00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:51,360
Speaker 1: y'all had something to do, I would just listening to

531
00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:54,960
Speaker 1: y'all just constantly talk or whatever. And in the midst

532
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:57,520
Speaker 1: of that, I record, and then next thing, you know,

533
00:32:57,600 --> 00:33:00,600
Speaker 1: I write this whole monologue that sounded just like you. Yeah,

534
00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:02,840
Speaker 1: you know what I mean and everything that you say

535
00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:07,400
Speaker 1: and do and just your Cadence Taylor. Yes Taylor, Yes Taylor,

536
00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:10,440
Speaker 1: because the more it's you, the less rehearse. So we're

537
00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:14,080
Speaker 1: gonna have, right, and the more comfortably gonna be. Now,

538
00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:18,520
Speaker 1: I want you to go up there and just seamlessly say.

539
00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:25,160
Speaker 7: That, say whatever it is as a writer, music, television, comedy,

540
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:29,400
Speaker 7: anything like, if you're doing it for someone, you have

541
00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:32,200
Speaker 7: to study them. Yeah, you have to study if you

542
00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:35,240
Speaker 7: if you really want to be a great writer, right,

543
00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:37,040
Speaker 7: like you could just I tell you all the time.

544
00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:40,440
Speaker 7: I'm like, they'll send certain songs, especially you know, they'll

545
00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:41,400
Speaker 7: send me songs for Tank.

546
00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:45,520
Speaker 1: I'm like, you just sent me a song that sounds

547
00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:50,280
Speaker 1: just like another song he had. Yeah, I said, you gotta.

548
00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:53,280
Speaker 1: You gotta get into the mind of him, even without

549
00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:53,840
Speaker 1: meeting him.

550
00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:58,080
Speaker 7: Yeah, you gotta be like, Okay, I gotta research where

551
00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:00,600
Speaker 7: he's at in his life or she's at in her life,

552
00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:04,720
Speaker 7: and I got to figure out what's needed in that space.

553
00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:07,080
Speaker 7: Now it is, and I don't think a lot of

554
00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:10,600
Speaker 7: the writers do that anymore, not as much to me,

555
00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:13,680
Speaker 7: I don't think so. So to hear you explaining your process,

556
00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:17,759
Speaker 7: like I'm lighting up, this is really how it's done.

557
00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:21,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean the growth is in the music. You

558
00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:24,640
Speaker 1: know what I mean? I would think that if I

559
00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:27,720
Speaker 1: had to write a song for somebody, because I've written,

560
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:30,960
Speaker 1: I actually written a couple of songs, and in the

561
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:33,000
Speaker 1: midst of that, what I did was I just looked

562
00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:36,799
Speaker 1: at the growth of the music and her where it

563
00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:40,239
Speaker 1: started to where it is now, and then listen to

564
00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:43,600
Speaker 1: that and then think about where that person could be. Yes,

565
00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:46,040
Speaker 1: you know what I mean from that point from the

566
00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:50,000
Speaker 1: last album, what could where this person can be at?

567
00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:52,719
Speaker 1: Where do I see this person being at? Do I

568
00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:56,000
Speaker 1: see them being divorced? Do I see them cheating? Do

569
00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:59,120
Speaker 1: I see them even being more in love? Do I what?

570
00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:01,600
Speaker 1: Do I Where do I see this person being? You know,

571
00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:06,040
Speaker 1: I'm gonna write something where all of these things kind apply.

572
00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:12,319
Speaker 1: We could just interchange the ending of this and make

573
00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:17,600
Speaker 1: it where it's uh, it'll fit them and where they at.

574
00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:19,040
Speaker 1: That makes sense.

575
00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:21,960
Speaker 4: Because it because yeah, again it leads, it lends to

576
00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:27,040
Speaker 4: their comfortability or the more it is them, the more

577
00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:30,000
Speaker 4: they're able to be on stage and be honest. Yeah,

578
00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:34,239
Speaker 4: like that's better. Like I did it. I did this

579
00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:37,959
Speaker 4: song with Kay Michelle one time and we're sitting there

580
00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:41,200
Speaker 4: and we're just talking. I'm call forever and I'm like

581
00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:43,719
Speaker 4: and I'm like, and I'm fucking I'm like this, I'm like.

582
00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:45,239
Speaker 1: You love to get on that line though? You love

583
00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:47,160
Speaker 1: to you love to be in them comments?

584
00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:50,200
Speaker 4: Though, No, no, no, no no, because that motherfucker tried to

585
00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:53,200
Speaker 4: try to go online and say some shit about me, like,

586
00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:54,840
Speaker 4: I ain't gonna say some ship back nigga. I'm a

587
00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:56,719
Speaker 4: bus back nigga. You understand what I'm saying. You got

588
00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:59,279
Speaker 4: the right one of us and stuff right there? Turn

589
00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:04,080
Speaker 4: the mic on, please, dude, god the right?

590
00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:10,600
Speaker 1: Wow? Was this like, so this is Christian Michelle's talking like.

591
00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:15,200
Speaker 4: No, no, this is this is Kate Michelle. Oh, I

592
00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:17,919
Speaker 4: know you're talking about Yeah yeah yeah, I'm like and

593
00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:22,320
Speaker 4: else and we did this song and I'm literally just framing.

594
00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:25,360
Speaker 1: That's crazy, her experience.

595
00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:28,439
Speaker 4: All of her words and just just putting them into

596
00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:31,920
Speaker 4: just a decent little format so she can And she

597
00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:36,160
Speaker 4: might have sang that song in all of seven minutes, damn,

598
00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:41,040
Speaker 4: and and it wasn't a single. But when she sings

599
00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:45,920
Speaker 4: that song live, it is a movie. Really, that's crazy

600
00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:49,480
Speaker 4: because it's her. It ain't nobody trying to write a

601
00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:52,480
Speaker 4: song for her. It's somebody writing her song.

602
00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:58,040
Speaker 1: Why is it easier to write a song with the

603
00:36:58,080 --> 00:37:01,200
Speaker 1: person around or with that a person around?

604
00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:07,239
Speaker 7: Depends on how difficult they are to me, that would

605
00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:09,080
Speaker 7: be my answer to you. It just depends on how

606
00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:11,680
Speaker 7: difficult they are. Because when you have people that are

607
00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:16,040
Speaker 7: are willing to take direction, are willing to open up

608
00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:18,520
Speaker 7: to you, really open up to you, it's like, okay,

609
00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:20,840
Speaker 7: this can be easy. But then you got some artists

610
00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:22,680
Speaker 7: that are just you know, either stuck in their ways

611
00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:25,680
Speaker 7: or they're just they're not who you thought they were

612
00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:29,600
Speaker 7: about that, you know what I mean? See, like, what

613
00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:31,040
Speaker 7: do I write for this motherfucker?

614
00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:34,080
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. So to me, you know,

615
00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:36,600
Speaker 1: it just depends on the person. In my opinion, Yeah,

616
00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:38,920
Speaker 1: I mean that's that's that's tricked out. You said that

617
00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:43,759
Speaker 1: because I have met people that I perceive to be

618
00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:46,960
Speaker 1: a certain ways we are, and then when I guarantee

619
00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:50,200
Speaker 1: to write for them, I go, oh, you're not as

620
00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:54,239
Speaker 1: confident as portray yourself to that. Yeah, there's always that.

621
00:37:54,600 --> 00:38:00,120
Speaker 1: Oh but you oh you oh, so you're insecure. I

622
00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:03,440
Speaker 1: wish I don't know if I can write this because

623
00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:07,440
Speaker 1: I was this is I mean, you played secure, well,

624
00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:11,960
Speaker 1: so maybe I can write this, but I don't know.

625
00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:15,920
Speaker 1: I ain't sure I can give it to you. But

626
00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:19,080
Speaker 1: still it's not who I thought was going to be

627
00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:22,879
Speaker 1: singing or saying this joke or you know. That's how

628
00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:26,040
Speaker 1: that's how it is, like even writing material, it's like,

629
00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:28,359
Speaker 1: you can't say this, So tell me.

630
00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:39,200
Speaker 4: Something, your deaf jam comic view when you get to Conan,

631
00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:47,719
Speaker 4: Are these now two different types of comedy comedies that

632
00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:50,479
Speaker 4: you are having to write and dive into in terms

633
00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:51,640
Speaker 4: of when you think of audience?

634
00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:58,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, because me, writing for Conan taught me. Television taught

635
00:38:58,680 --> 00:38:59,719
Speaker 1: me where the money is.

636
00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:02,759
Speaker 4: And if you don't mind, what is a difference when

637
00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:05,440
Speaker 4: you say writing for television like writing for ConA in

638
00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:06,359
Speaker 4: that space.

639
00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:09,719
Speaker 1: Anything you do on TV that's successful has to have

640
00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:14,000
Speaker 1: a certain amount of corny mm hmm in it. Okay,

641
00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:16,920
Speaker 1: you gotta have it and everything you do if you

642
00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:24,399
Speaker 1: want money. Bruno Mars is fantastic, but he has the

643
00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:29,960
Speaker 1: right amount of corny that keeps him number one. Yeah, yeah, right,

644
00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:34,480
Speaker 1: These cool motherfuckers that write all these cool songs and

645
00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:39,640
Speaker 1: ship all these great metaphors and hmmm, they're not really

646
00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:46,239
Speaker 1: small venues. Small small venues, small venues. Yeah, you gotta be.

647
00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:48,080
Speaker 7: Willing to dress up, You got to be willing to

648
00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:50,960
Speaker 7: act it out all these other things that people consider

649
00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:51,720
Speaker 7: to be corny.

650
00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:56,120
Speaker 1: I get what you're saying, but there are way less

651
00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:59,240
Speaker 1: cool people, and cool people don't have as much money.

652
00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:01,360
Speaker 1: No it's and don't want to spend it either, and

653
00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:04,640
Speaker 1: don't want to spend it. When when cool people critique me,

654
00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:09,320
Speaker 1: I just be like, Okay, that's cool. A real nigga.

00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:47,280
Speaker 4: you redefine the word real.

662
00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:51,840

Speaker 1: they love him. And he's doing it gracefully. He's not

669
00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:24,480
Speaker 1: going against his integrity, he's doing none of that. And

670
00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:27,839
Speaker 1: he's doing what the fuck he's supposed to do. Being

671
00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:32,000
Speaker 1: on family feud every day and everybody's home for all

672
00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:34,239
Speaker 1: this amount of time or whatever, he has to write

00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:36,239
Speaker 1: amount of corny in order for him to make it.

674
00:41:36,680 --> 00:41:39,080

Speaker 1: reach everybody. I want to reach everybody man not here.

682
00:42:00,680 --> 00:42:05,840
Speaker 1: Just to constantly do the same material for those that

683
00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:08,759
Speaker 1: like it. It's like I'm trying to elevate and I'm trying

684
00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:12,560
Speaker 1: to get more and more people to to to check

685
00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:15,120

686
00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:18,799
Speaker 1: You know what I mean. But if you constantly performing

687
00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:21,640
Speaker 1: and writing for those that love you, that's where you're

688
00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:24,520
Speaker 1: gonna be at, you know. But if you add some

689
00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:27,600
Speaker 1: corny to it. I bet you go to another level.

690
00:42:27,719 --> 00:42:30,279
Speaker 1: I want to rebubble you. Okay, I want to I

691
00:42:30,320 --> 00:42:33,120
Speaker 1: want to fight you on this one. Okay, as it

692
00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:38,080
Speaker 1: pertains to you personally. I don't think.

693
00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:48,000
Speaker 4: I don't think everybody can make cool digestible for everybody. Facts,

694
00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:53,400
Speaker 4: and you've done an amazing job.

695
00:42:55,160 --> 00:43:04,640
Speaker 1: Making cool for everybody. I thank you. But it takes many, many,

696
00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:12,200
Speaker 1: many nights of bombing. Hmmm. If you look at my

697
00:43:12,239 --> 00:43:15,239
Speaker 1: specialists that I dropped, every special that I dropped, it

698
00:43:15,280 --> 00:43:18,360
Speaker 1: takes me two years to put that out. It's a

699
00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:20,920
Speaker 1: lot of casts. They put out special every year, and

700
00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:25,919
Speaker 1: it looked like it. It looks like it. I take

701
00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:28,560
Speaker 1: my time with this man and I and either you

702
00:43:28,719 --> 00:43:31,600
Speaker 1: like it or you don't. But it doesn't wave for

703
00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:34,640
Speaker 1: the process that I do phenomena. And there's a lot

704
00:43:34,680 --> 00:43:39,000
Speaker 1: of phenomenal comics out here that drop specials year at

705
00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:41,719
Speaker 1: the year, and they are great. But there are some

706
00:43:41,880 --> 00:43:48,000
Speaker 1: specials that aren't special. They're not special. I'm not saying everybody.

707
00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:50,840
Speaker 1: I'm just saying there are some specials that are not special.

708
00:43:51,480 --> 00:43:55,560
Speaker 1: And I think specials are special, special, they should be special.

709
00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:58,640
Speaker 1: Let me put two years put it in because I

710
00:43:58,640 --> 00:44:00,880
Speaker 1: still got a tour with it too. You gotta have

711
00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:02,799
Speaker 1: tour time, you gotta have right time. You gotta have

712
00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:04,719
Speaker 1: all that. And then you go out there and then

713
00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:06,560
Speaker 1: once you're ready, then you're ready, and then you go

714
00:44:06,680 --> 00:44:08,799
Speaker 1: put that thing on TV. Man, you put it out.

715
00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:19,200
Speaker 2: Okay, give me a process.

716
00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:23,799

Speaker 1: he understands that they expected one thing guy to him

863
00:53:53,440 --> 00:53:56,960

864
00:53:57,000 --> 00:54:00,080
Speaker 1: this is why Jamie Fox is so great. Shame he

865
00:54:00,239 --> 00:54:04,880

866
00:54:04,960 --> 00:54:07,759
Speaker 1: those things. Or in confuse them all.

867
00:54:17,560 --> 00:54:19,200
Speaker 4: I went to a rooms where people didn't know me

868
00:54:19,760 --> 00:54:22,000
Speaker 4: what I was doing comedy, which is what helped me.

869
00:54:23,200 --> 00:54:26,520
Speaker 4: So Francisco Duran is a guy who helped me a lot,

870
00:54:27,239 --> 00:54:28,920
Speaker 4: and he was on in the road. He was doing

871
00:54:28,920 --> 00:54:32,280
Speaker 4: a lot of shows with Carlosman's here at the time.

872
00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:33,960
Speaker 4: So he was like, man, if you want to get

873
00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:35,880
Speaker 4: some work in, just just just open and work on

876
00:54:39,480 --> 00:54:42,520

Speaker 4: She ain't doing the right thing, doing the right thing,

919
00:57:27,120 --> 00:57:28,400
Speaker 4: she gonna get some of my attention.

920
00:57:30,560 --> 00:57:31,200
Speaker 1: Absolutely.

921
00:57:31,520 --> 00:57:45,160
Speaker 4: I'm singing the next verse to her, bitch you go whittling,

922
00:57:45,160 --> 00:57:49,520
Speaker 4: You'll see the something, give a nigga something. Because because

923
00:57:49,720 --> 00:57:52,280
Speaker 4: the flip side of that is when I'm singing at

924
00:57:52,280 --> 00:57:54,520
Speaker 4: Fourth Valley State homecoming, I'm singing.

925
00:57:54,240 --> 00:57:56,920
Speaker 1: This terrible record. Two girl, cute girls in the front row,

926
00:57:56,960 --> 00:57:57,400
Speaker 1: look at you other.

927
00:58:02,560 --> 00:58:05,760
Speaker 4: It was just them too. Everybody was like, oh that's cool,

928
00:58:05,920 --> 00:58:14,960
Speaker 4: but them too. It was like this niggas week. So

929
00:58:15,040 --> 00:58:18,400
Speaker 4: I get what you're saying. I can spot the motherfucker

930
00:58:18,440 --> 00:58:23,520
Speaker 4: it's not participating and I need their help. That's the challenge.

931
00:58:24,040 --> 00:58:26,600
Speaker 4: It's crazy. I want everybody, you want.

932
00:58:26,440 --> 00:58:30,360
Speaker 1: Everybody, and it's like you you, it's like you rely

933
00:58:30,520 --> 00:58:32,560
Speaker 1: on that. It's like it's it's I don't know what

934
00:58:32,680 --> 00:58:35,120
Speaker 1: it is. Man. I got to get over that though.

935
00:58:35,240 --> 00:58:40,120
Speaker 1: I gotta like lead at one person alone and enjoy everybody.

936
00:58:40,240 --> 00:58:42,320
Speaker 1: You start talking ship to him and fucking with them?

937
00:58:42,360 --> 00:58:45,760
Speaker 1: Are you just no? I just constantly look at them.

938
00:58:45,800 --> 00:58:49,760
Speaker 1: My whole show is now set on how do I

939
00:58:49,840 --> 00:58:51,960
Speaker 1: make this person lie? No.

940
00:58:52,120 --> 00:58:54,880
Speaker 7: I think that's the other part about comedy that's so

941
00:58:55,000 --> 00:58:59,360
Speaker 7: different from recording artists, too, is that you guys just

942
00:58:59,760 --> 00:59:04,800
Speaker 7: you're not relying on that. Once again, the hit record,

943
00:59:05,640 --> 00:59:07,960
Speaker 7: You're not relying. You can't rely you can't rely on it,

944
00:59:08,040 --> 00:59:09,400
Speaker 7: you know what I mean? Like, yeah, you know what

945
00:59:09,480 --> 00:59:11,440
Speaker 7: may have worked in another city that they haven't seen it.

946
00:59:11,480 --> 00:59:13,880
Speaker 7: But it's like you said, you can't be a repeater

947
00:59:13,960 --> 00:59:15,760
Speaker 7: all the time with that type of thing, especially once

948
00:59:15,800 --> 00:59:16,440
Speaker 7: you get to the.

949
00:59:16,480 --> 00:59:17,880
Speaker 1: Level of special special.

950
00:59:18,280 --> 00:59:21,040
Speaker 7: Yeah, because I feel like, but it makes it where

951
00:59:21,520 --> 00:59:22,840
Speaker 7: comedians can't be lazy.

952
00:59:23,280 --> 00:59:26,400
Speaker 1: I see so many lazy artists. Yeah, y'all know the

953
00:59:26,440 --> 00:59:30,280
Speaker 1: song Yeah, got a tough comedian. No, you can't just moving.

954
00:59:30,720 --> 00:59:32,920
Speaker 1: You can't be lazy. We got to do all our

955
00:59:32,960 --> 00:59:36,560
Speaker 1: hits until we film it and then it's done. That's

956
00:59:36,560 --> 00:59:39,600
Speaker 1: how it is, the whole time, doing all your hits

957
00:59:40,040 --> 00:59:42,240
Speaker 1: and then when you film that, then you're done. But

958
00:59:42,280 --> 00:59:46,200
Speaker 1: everybody process is different, you know. And I've been learning

959
00:59:46,280 --> 00:59:49,240
Speaker 1: that too, Like I mean, not shameless plug, but like

960
00:59:49,320 --> 00:59:53,320
Speaker 1: even on my show Funny Knowing You, I've been learning

961
00:59:53,320 --> 00:59:56,720
Speaker 1: that from a lot of comedians, like their process of

962
00:59:56,800 --> 01:00:00,440
Speaker 1: how they ye put out and how they deal with

963
01:00:00,520 --> 01:00:05,880
Speaker 1: audiences and how it affects them. And a lot of comics, Man,

964
01:00:05,920 --> 01:00:08,080
Speaker 1: I ain't gonna eat lie to you doing doing this

965
01:00:08,440 --> 01:00:12,680
Speaker 1: the series I do on YouTube. Is a lot of

966
01:00:12,680 --> 01:00:16,760
Speaker 1: these comics are They are damaged, all of them, all

967
01:00:16,800 --> 01:00:18,880
Speaker 1: of us, A lot of them are damaged.

968
01:00:19,520 --> 01:00:23,160
Speaker 7: Oh man us doing Army Money podcast, the artist that

969
01:00:23,400 --> 01:00:25,840
Speaker 7: to be a creative it is damaging.

970
01:00:25,880 --> 01:00:29,200
Speaker 1: It's damaging for the world, and.

971
01:00:29,120 --> 01:00:32,440
Speaker 7: It's and it's damaging to more than yourself, the people

972
01:00:32,480 --> 01:00:35,120
Speaker 7: around you, you know what I mean, because you we're

973
01:00:35,240 --> 01:00:40,080
Speaker 7: so hyper focused on this, on this gift that we've

974
01:00:40,080 --> 01:00:42,080
Speaker 7: been given, whatever space.

975
01:00:41,800 --> 01:00:48,080
Speaker 1: It is, that it's a lot, it's a lot of

976
01:00:48,880 --> 01:00:49,880
Speaker 1: collateral damage.

977
01:00:49,920 --> 01:00:50,120
Speaker 2: Yeah.

978
01:00:50,240 --> 01:00:53,520
Speaker 1: I even feel like that would myself sometimes and I

979
01:00:53,720 --> 01:00:55,640
Speaker 1: never really thought of it, like that. But then I

980
01:00:55,720 --> 01:00:58,480
Speaker 1: was like, yeah, I guess I guess I do have

981
01:00:58,680 --> 01:01:03,000
Speaker 1: like damage. Well you know that was built up inside,

982
01:01:03,040 --> 01:01:05,880
Speaker 1: like I guess all comics do whatever. I think that's

983
01:01:05,920 --> 01:01:09,720
Speaker 1: why a lot of great comedians can become great dramatic

984
01:01:09,800 --> 01:01:14,080
Speaker 1: actors too, because of all the pain that they keep

985
01:01:14,120 --> 01:01:16,400
Speaker 1: inside or whatever, and they know how to like channel

986
01:01:16,920 --> 01:01:20,200
Speaker 1: channel that, you know, and everybody's pain is different and

987
01:01:20,240 --> 01:01:23,560
Speaker 1: they have to like still make people laugh. I remember

988
01:01:23,680 --> 01:01:25,800
Speaker 1: I did a show in Miami and I had this

989
01:01:25,880 --> 01:01:28,520
Speaker 1: comic that was opening up for me at the time. Man.

990
01:01:29,120 --> 01:01:30,880
Speaker 1: I remember we finished the show and I was like, man,

991
01:01:30,960 --> 01:01:33,840
Speaker 1: let's go eat. It was a gay comic, right, And

992
01:01:33,880 --> 01:01:36,360
Speaker 1: we were sitting down eating, just think we're going to

993
01:01:36,440 --> 01:01:39,840
Speaker 1: talk about the show, and he just start crying, just crying.

994
01:01:40,040 --> 01:01:42,760
Speaker 1: I was like, all right, man, what's wrong. And he

995
01:01:42,920 --> 01:01:45,600
Speaker 1: was just like he was like, man, I'm just tired. Man,

996
01:01:45,640 --> 01:01:49,200
Speaker 1: I'm just tired. And I'm like, what's wrong. He was like, Man,

997
01:01:49,280 --> 01:01:52,560
Speaker 1: I'm just just I'm tired of being lonely man. And

998
01:01:52,600 --> 01:01:55,320
Speaker 1: I was like, well, just find somebody. I just can't

999
01:01:55,360 --> 01:01:56,320
Speaker 1: find people like that.

1000
01:01:56,520 --> 01:01:56,720
Speaker 2: Man.

1001
01:01:56,800 --> 01:02:00,440
Speaker 1: You know, I like straight man, and know it's not

1002
01:02:00,480 --> 01:02:02,600
Speaker 1: a lot of straight men that that won't me because

1003
01:02:02,600 --> 01:02:05,080
Speaker 1: it's straight. So what do I do if it's a

1004
01:02:05,080 --> 01:02:07,360
Speaker 1: bunch the straight man that it's not gay and they

1005
01:02:07,400 --> 01:02:09,320
Speaker 1: all like gay people and that's all I like. So

1006
01:02:09,440 --> 01:02:15,560
Speaker 1: I can't find nobody and I just like right, like wow.

1007
01:02:16,240 --> 01:02:19,720
Speaker 1: But that was a struggle for him. He was crushed

1008
01:02:19,800 --> 01:02:23,520
Speaker 1: inside because of that, and I just was about what

1009
01:02:23,600 --> 01:02:26,720
Speaker 1: he said, Yeah, I thought about it. It was I

1010
01:02:26,720 --> 01:02:29,240
Speaker 1: don't know if he thought about it, but there was

1011
01:02:29,280 --> 01:02:33,280
Speaker 1: no answer from from the way that he put it.

1012
01:02:33,320 --> 01:02:38,840
Speaker 1: But it had me thinking, I don't have said, did

1013
01:02:38,880 --> 01:02:42,720
Speaker 1: he think about he only he's gay, like what? And

1014
01:02:42,720 --> 01:02:47,120
Speaker 1: he only is attracted to straight man? That's work. It

1015
01:02:47,160 --> 01:02:48,000
Speaker 1: ain't gonna work.

1016
01:02:48,120 --> 01:02:50,880
Speaker 4: And that's that's just what he accidentally picks or is

1017
01:02:50,920 --> 01:02:54,600
Speaker 4: there a nuance about straight men that is attractive to him.

1018
01:02:54,960 --> 01:02:58,320
Speaker 1: He said that he had a straight man before that

1019
01:02:58,360 --> 01:03:02,840
Speaker 1: ain't a straight man. Not kidding, listen, but that's what

1020
01:03:02,960 --> 01:03:06,920
Speaker 1: I said. I was about to say, No, I told him,

1021
01:03:06,960 --> 01:03:09,120
Speaker 1: I said, I said, he said, he said I had

1022
01:03:09,120 --> 01:03:11,240
Speaker 1: a straight man before. Because I was going, how do

1023
01:03:11,320 --> 01:03:13,120
Speaker 1: you know you like straight man? He was like, I

1024
01:03:13,200 --> 01:03:16,040
Speaker 1: had one before, and I was like, well, if you

1025
01:03:16,160 --> 01:03:18,400
Speaker 1: had him before, then he's no longer straight. And he

1026
01:03:18,480 --> 01:03:20,240
Speaker 1: was like, no, he just tried it, and I said

1027
01:03:20,320 --> 01:03:22,840
Speaker 1: he's straight. And I just didn't want to argue. I

1028
01:03:22,880 --> 01:03:25,440
Speaker 1: was just like, okay, whatever, and I was like, all right,

1029
01:03:25,440 --> 01:03:29,800
Speaker 1: but that's a struggle that I'd never thought about. That's

1030
01:03:29,840 --> 01:03:34,040
Speaker 1: the point that I made, The struggle that these people have,

1031
01:03:34,280 --> 01:03:38,600
Speaker 1: that people have their struggles you can't even fathom sometime

1032
01:03:38,680 --> 01:03:41,320
Speaker 1: where you going, oh wow, that is something that you

1033
01:03:41,680 --> 01:03:47,920
Speaker 1: really really dealing with. That's keeping you, you know, funny,

1034
01:03:48,800 --> 01:03:51,520
Speaker 1: you know, because because of laughing to keep them crying,

1035
01:03:51,880 --> 01:03:55,600
Speaker 1: laughing to keep them crying exactly. But yeah, that that

1036
01:03:55,600 --> 01:03:58,680
Speaker 1: that tripped me out, and they had me learning that

1037
01:03:59,000 --> 01:04:01,720
Speaker 1: being sympathetic to a lot of people and not just

1038
01:04:01,760 --> 01:04:05,240
Speaker 1: being judgmental and looking at them like this is where

1039
01:04:05,280 --> 01:04:07,439
Speaker 1: you're supposed to be or you should be this way

1040
01:04:07,560 --> 01:04:11,040
Speaker 1: or that way or whatever, Like you can't tell people

1041
01:04:11,120 --> 01:04:14,360
Speaker 1: how they should be. Ain't nobody paying the taxes you're paying,

1042
01:04:14,440 --> 01:04:17,960
Speaker 1: and don't nobody look like you, don't nobody talk like you,

1043
01:04:18,040 --> 01:04:20,680
Speaker 1: sink like you. So how are you supposed to give

1044
01:04:20,760 --> 01:04:23,600
Speaker 1: these people advice on how they need to be or

1045
01:04:23,600 --> 01:04:27,200
Speaker 1: whatever when you're not even in a wheelhouse to even

1046
01:04:27,520 --> 01:04:30,440
Speaker 1: give them information like that. When he told me that,

1047
01:04:30,600 --> 01:04:33,680
Speaker 1: I kind of just clocked out, Like man, I was like,

1048
01:04:33,760 --> 01:04:36,200
Speaker 1: I was just like, man, you'll figure it out. And

1049
01:04:36,280 --> 01:04:37,680
Speaker 1: that was just it, you know what I mean.

1050
01:04:43,040 --> 01:04:45,080
Speaker 4: I don't know what nothing to say, but I think

1051
01:04:45,200 --> 01:04:48,560
Speaker 4: about it.

1052
01:04:49,480 --> 01:04:52,240
Speaker 1: Niggas was checking.

1053
01:04:54,760 --> 01:05:12,600
Speaker 14: You know, I wasn't there. What a segue?

1054
01:05:13,480 --> 01:05:20,439
Speaker 1: It was second shows. I love straight man.

Speaker 4: You know anybody they're sitting in here eating with us

01:06:26,440 --> 01:06:29,080
Speaker 1: a special? Okay? Which one was first? Which? I had

1071
01:06:29,080 --> 01:06:33,800
Speaker 1: a special called Cold Blooded Seminars on Comedy Central. That

1072
01:06:33,920 --> 01:06:37,520
Speaker 1: was my very first Hour special and then I was

1073
01:06:37,720 --> 01:06:41,840
Speaker 1: like before Netflix, like and then when Netflix hid, know

1074
01:06:41,920 --> 01:06:47,840
Speaker 1: what did it do for you? Though? It had people going,

1075
01:06:48,640 --> 01:06:53,640
Speaker 1: he's a still wasn't like seating crazy asses and seats,

1076
01:06:54,040 --> 01:06:56,520
Speaker 1: but they had people going, oh this this is kind

1077
01:06:56,560 --> 01:07:01,680
Speaker 1: of clever. It put me on on people's radar. Yeah,

1078
01:07:02,040 --> 01:07:03,400
Speaker 1: but it was like, oh, this is just kind of

1079
01:07:03,840 --> 01:07:06,680
Speaker 1: this is kind of kind of clever. And it was

1080
01:07:06,720 --> 01:07:09,960
Speaker 1: like that, and it just was that was it.

1081
01:07:10,560 --> 01:07:14,680
Speaker 7: You know, I still was still have to burn at

1082
01:07:14,680 --> 01:07:16,160
Speaker 7: this point. What do you what are you making a

1083
01:07:16,240 --> 01:07:17,440
Speaker 7: show right now?

1084
01:07:17,720 --> 01:07:17,840
Speaker 12: No?

1085
01:07:17,840 --> 01:07:18,360
Speaker 2: No? No?

1086
01:07:19,160 --> 01:07:22,760
Speaker 1: Then what was I making? Then? I was probably getting

1087
01:07:22,800 --> 01:07:30,880
Speaker 1: about maybe about fifteen hundred fifteen hundred a show, and

1088
01:07:30,920 --> 01:07:34,560
Speaker 1: that's good money in comedy, yeah, I mean yeah then yeah,

1089
01:07:34,840 --> 01:07:39,480
Speaker 1: because I was just making like a thousand a show.

1090
01:07:39,760 --> 01:07:41,760
Speaker 1: I was making like a thousand then when my special

1091
01:07:41,840 --> 01:07:43,680
Speaker 1: came out on until like fifteen.

1092
01:07:44,120 --> 01:07:46,960
Speaker 7: Because they because the way comedy is is you see,

1093
01:07:49,000 --> 01:07:51,640
Speaker 7: because comedy is also based around, like you said, asides

1094
01:07:51,680 --> 01:07:53,880
Speaker 7: and seats, right, they ain't that, how y'all?

1095
01:07:55,040 --> 01:07:56,919
Speaker 1: Yeah? Equated to you know.

1096
01:07:56,920 --> 01:07:58,800
Speaker 4: And then and then if you can, you know, if

1097
01:07:58,840 --> 01:08:02,280
Speaker 4: you have enough success, then you can still do those

1098
01:08:02,280 --> 01:08:04,320
Speaker 4: same rooms or maybe you want to do bigger rooms,

1099
01:08:04,320 --> 01:08:06,040
Speaker 4: but then you can go to a premium ticket price.

1100
01:08:07,200 --> 01:08:09,360
Speaker 1: That's another way that that money starts to go up. Yeah,

1101
01:08:09,440 --> 01:08:13,439
Speaker 1: And it was like and then you started looking at

1102
01:08:14,600 --> 01:08:18,439
Speaker 1: the shows like you'll do a comedy club. And I

1103
01:08:18,479 --> 01:08:21,120
Speaker 1: went from this is when you know you can kind

1104
01:08:21,120 --> 01:08:23,519
Speaker 1: of lift your money up. I went to comedy club

1105
01:08:23,520 --> 01:08:26,560
Speaker 1: and I used to do like five shows right to

1106
01:08:26,760 --> 01:08:31,920
Speaker 1: a sellout. And that was just like Saturday, the Saturday

1107
01:08:31,960 --> 01:08:38,080
Speaker 1: show and the Friday late show and the early Saturday show.

1108
01:08:39,200 --> 01:08:41,479
Speaker 1: They don't even know who's there, you know, they just

1109
01:08:41,560 --> 01:08:44,160
Speaker 1: out on the Saturday, like let me just go to

1110
01:08:44,320 --> 01:08:46,880
Speaker 1: see some comedy or whatever. So that's why those would

1111
01:08:47,439 --> 01:08:50,360
Speaker 1: kind of sell out. And then you know, after a while,

1112
01:08:50,640 --> 01:08:54,680
Speaker 1: three is sellout and all five is sell out. Now

1113
01:08:54,680 --> 01:09:01,240
Speaker 1: you're adding shows. Now you up to seven shows. Now

1114
01:09:01,280 --> 01:09:05,320
Speaker 1: you're doing nine shows ship. Now you're doing eleven eleven

1115
01:09:05,360 --> 01:09:08,920
Speaker 1: shows a week. Yeah, and now you're like, okay, god, Dan,

1116
01:09:09,040 --> 01:09:12,000
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go to theaters. Then you do a theater

1117
01:09:12,880 --> 01:09:16,639
Speaker 1: and you could just do one get all in one show. Yeah,

1118
01:09:16,720 --> 01:09:20,519
Speaker 1: but it's almost less money though theaters. It's less work

1119
01:09:20,560 --> 01:09:24,360
Speaker 1: too though, less work show sip. But you've got everybody

1120
01:09:24,400 --> 01:09:26,559
Speaker 1: on one spot though, right, you know what I mean.

1121
01:09:26,720 --> 01:09:29,920
Speaker 1: So instead you're doing a room of three hundred people,

1122
01:09:29,920 --> 01:09:33,880
Speaker 1: four hundred people, you're doing three thousand or whatever. But

1123
01:09:34,600 --> 01:09:39,480
Speaker 1: the insurance, yeah, yeah, the insurance on the place security,

1124
01:09:39,920 --> 01:09:42,960
Speaker 1: you know, like shows, show it's like it's a whole

1125
01:09:43,000 --> 01:09:45,599
Speaker 1: thing that you don't have to worry about a comedy clubs,

1126
01:09:46,320 --> 01:09:48,280
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So so the money that

1127
01:09:48,360 --> 01:09:51,040
Speaker 1: you would normally get in the comedy club would be

1128
01:09:51,160 --> 01:09:53,840
Speaker 1: less than in the theater. People see theatersn't just think

1129
01:09:53,880 --> 01:10:00,280
Speaker 1: that it's really look yeah, and the less work to

1130
01:09:59,800 --> 01:10:03,360
Speaker 1: do to do less work and for the look. Yeah.

1131
01:10:03,400 --> 01:10:06,320
Speaker 4: So what was what was the what was the special

1132
01:10:06,560 --> 01:10:10,720
Speaker 4: or moment that said that said Dion Cole is the

1133
01:10:10,800 --> 01:10:11,800
Speaker 4: bad motherfucker here.

1134
01:10:13,200 --> 01:10:17,800
Speaker 1: When I did my second special, Cold Hearted, which is

1135
01:10:17,840 --> 01:10:22,200
Speaker 1: the first hour special I did on Netflix, I remember

1136
01:10:23,840 --> 01:10:31,960
Speaker 1: Chris Rock text welcome to the club. Ship. He text that,

1137

1147
01:11:21,600 --> 01:11:24,000

1150
01:11:28,439 --> 01:11:30,040
Speaker 1: Right, That's why I'm trying to figure this shit.

1151
01:11:30,120 --> 01:11:32,480
Speaker 4: So they want to put the tickets up for sale,

1152
01:11:32,720 --> 01:11:35,360
Speaker 4: they sat, yeah, and maybe you know, and maybe they

1153
01:11:35,600 --> 01:11:38,479
Speaker 4: they they space it out to war. Okay, you won't

1154
01:11:38,479 --> 01:11:40,240
Speaker 4: start the tour in like six months to get the

1155
01:11:40,320 --> 01:11:42,040
Speaker 4: time to really go, but they got to catch them

1156
01:11:42,080 --> 01:11:42,719
Speaker 4: tickets sales.

1157
01:11:43,520 --> 01:11:47,439
Speaker 1: See. But see with Netflix, this is another thing. And

1158
01:11:47,479 --> 01:11:50,360
Speaker 1: this is for any comic out there, a little tipbit

1159
01:11:50,439 --> 01:11:54,240
Speaker 1: for you. Whatever. When you drop these specials, what they

1160
01:11:54,280 --> 01:11:56,439
Speaker 1: do is they'll drop a special and then just tour.

1161
01:11:58,000 --> 01:12:00,479
Speaker 1: And that ain't how you do that. Ship. You have

1162
01:12:00,600 --> 01:12:03,320
Speaker 1: to wait until everybody see that special because if you

1163
01:12:03,400 --> 01:12:06,519
Speaker 1: go to early, everybody ain't solid. So now you're leaving

1164
01:12:06,560 --> 01:12:08,599
Speaker 1: money on the table because you wanted to get out

1165
01:12:08,640 --> 01:12:11,120
Speaker 1: there all of a sudden and try to tour and everything.

1166
01:12:11,160 --> 01:12:13,360
Speaker 1: You gotta wait at least three to four months after

1167
01:12:13,400 --> 01:12:16,360
Speaker 1: that thing drop in order for people to see it. Now,

1168
01:12:16,560 --> 01:12:18,479
Speaker 1: from the time that you shoot that thing, you got

1169
01:12:18,479 --> 01:12:21,240
Speaker 1: about three months to edit it, right, You got three

1170
01:12:21,240 --> 01:12:23,160
Speaker 1: months for once to come out, So you gotta get

1171
01:12:23,200 --> 01:12:25,519
Speaker 1: six months to write something, you know what I mean.

1172
01:12:25,840 --> 01:12:29,160
Speaker 1: So you're gonna have something. But I doubt if you

1173
01:12:29,240 --> 01:12:31,639
Speaker 1: have an hour and six months, you probably have about

1174
01:12:31,640 --> 01:12:35,559
Speaker 1: a nice twenty fifteen minutes that you will have. And

1175
01:12:35,600 --> 01:12:40,040
Speaker 1: then you can whose birthday is it? Another minute? And

1176
01:12:40,080 --> 01:12:42,880
Speaker 1: then after that you can have a twork contest. And

1177
01:12:42,920 --> 01:12:45,720
Speaker 1: now you're up to forty five minutes and you out

1178
01:12:45,760 --> 01:12:53,680
Speaker 1: that you know, shooting right, stop off fifteen.

1179
01:12:54,760 --> 01:13:05,800
Speaker 10: Ladies and gentlemen taints looking down.

Speaker 12: You know.

1262
01:18:02,840 --> 01:18:04,960
Speaker 1: I guess he felt like I wasn't large enough to

1263
01:18:05,000 --> 01:18:06,960
Speaker 1: wear his glasses. And I think he just gave me

1264
01:18:07,000 --> 01:18:11,639
Speaker 1: his glasses just to you know, just because I was there,

1265
01:18:12,160 --> 01:18:15,720
Speaker 1: yeah or whatever. And yeah, I guess he felt like

1266
01:18:15,760 --> 01:18:19,760
Speaker 1: I just wasn't large enough to wear his glasses. But

1267
01:18:19,840 --> 01:18:24,479
Speaker 1: the ill shit is, you know, the night two nights later,

1268
01:18:24,560 --> 01:18:28,280
Speaker 1: I just went and sold out six thousand cedar, you know.

1269
01:18:29,640 --> 01:18:33,760
Speaker 1: And I'm quite sure him himself, and I ain't got

1270
01:18:33,760 --> 01:18:35,599
Speaker 1: no ill will against him or nothing like that, but

1271
01:18:35,760 --> 01:18:38,000
Speaker 1: I'm quite sure the one song that he did have,

1272
01:18:38,640 --> 01:18:42,439
Speaker 1: there's no way in hell he could you sell out.

1273
01:18:42,840 --> 01:18:46,240
Speaker 1: He should be here of six thousand people to hear

1274
01:18:46,320 --> 01:18:48,679
Speaker 1: that one song. Did you wear his glasses you before?

1275
01:18:48,840 --> 01:18:48,920
Speaker 2: No?

1276
01:18:49,000 --> 01:18:54,559
Speaker 1: I did not. I never wore him since. But yo,

1277
01:18:54,760 --> 01:18:59,800
Speaker 1: they sun you like you just like you small. It's like,

1278
01:19:00,080 --> 01:19:04,960
Speaker 1: do you know how much money comedians are getting? No

1279
01:19:05,120 --> 01:19:11,240
Speaker 1: band getting it, no backup singers, no musicians. There's a

1280
01:19:11,520 --> 01:19:24,160
Speaker 1: microphone and one guy and there's six thousand people. Yo,

1281
01:19:24,400 --> 01:19:26,679
Speaker 1: let me ask you something. Let me ask y'all something.

1282
01:19:27,880 --> 01:19:30,439
Speaker 1: I couldn't wait to get her to ask y'all, be

1283
01:19:30,600 --> 01:19:35,240
Speaker 1: for real, for real? How do you feel about today's music?

1284
01:19:37,720 --> 01:19:41,920
Speaker 1: I see me and I are. It's hard to ask

1285
01:19:42,080 --> 01:19:44,640
Speaker 1: us because we are into We.

1286
01:19:45,280 --> 01:19:51,639
Speaker 4: Are part of the tradition and the progression, so we

1287
01:19:52,040 --> 01:19:56,360
Speaker 4: have an appreciation for all of it because all of

1288
01:19:56,400 --> 01:20:01,880
Speaker 4: it has a place now. What I always encourage is

1289
01:20:02,000 --> 01:20:09,160
Speaker 4: for everyone who's doing music now to study the people

1290
01:20:09,280 --> 01:20:14,240
Speaker 4: who were doing music. Then don't miss that step, because

1291
01:20:15,120 --> 01:20:22,799
Speaker 4: some somewhere somewhere in that timeline is a recipe that

1292
01:20:22,800 --> 01:20:27,759
Speaker 4: that makes sense for you, that you can take and apply.

1293
01:20:28,000 --> 01:20:31,479
Speaker 4: As we were talking about Michael Jackson the other day,

1294
01:20:32,280 --> 01:20:35,759
Speaker 4: when you talk about Michael Jackson, in order to truly

1295
01:20:35,880 --> 01:20:42,000
Speaker 4: be a great performer, from Beyonce to Bruno Mars to

1296
01:20:42,320 --> 01:20:49,800
Speaker 4: Chris Brown, you are grabbing ingredients from the greatest yea

1297
01:20:49,880 --> 01:20:51,800
Speaker 4: from Michael jacqueson.

1298
01:20:53,560 --> 01:20:55,760
Speaker 1: You have to yeah, yeah.

1299
01:20:56,280 --> 01:20:58,439
Speaker 4: When you talk about when I'm talking when i'm when

1300
01:20:58,479 --> 01:21:02,679
Speaker 4: I'm trying to figure out this scream that I want

1301
01:21:02,720 --> 01:21:07,000
Speaker 4: to hear at my show. It's got to feel and

1302
01:21:07,080 --> 01:21:11,639
Speaker 4: sound like this. I'm listening to Distant Lover live Marvin Gaye,

1303
01:21:12,240 --> 01:21:16,240
Speaker 4: and I'm studying how he's saying it, how he moving,

1304
01:21:17,120 --> 01:21:20,000
Speaker 4: how he how he goes into the song Distant Love.

1305
01:21:20,000 --> 01:21:23,400
Speaker 4: It don't start off like Distant Lover. It's a prelude

1306
01:21:23,960 --> 01:21:26,480
Speaker 4: and then it goes boom boom, boom boom.

1307
01:21:26,200 --> 01:21:29,960
Speaker 1: Distant Love. Oh my god, baby woman is having a

1308
01:21:29,960 --> 01:21:33,519
Speaker 1: baby on the third row. Man Twins.

1309
01:21:36,880 --> 01:21:42,880
Speaker 4: You have to that's how you That's how you stay grounded.

1310
01:21:43,000 --> 01:21:46,840
Speaker 4: Whereas in your your your your gift in what you

1311
01:21:46,960 --> 01:21:51,439
Speaker 4: do has a foundation, but you're also tuned in to

1312
01:21:51,560 --> 01:21:54,599
Speaker 4: what's happening and what's working now. So I just say,

1313
01:21:54,640 --> 01:21:59,080
Speaker 4: don't get too lost in the now, because the now

1314
01:21:59,360 --> 01:22:01,120
Speaker 4: is it's quick, fast, in a hurry.

1315
01:22:02,320 --> 01:22:03,240
Speaker 1: But now it's trendy.

1316
01:22:03,840 --> 01:22:06,760
Speaker 4: But now it's all of these things that you can

1317
01:22:06,800 --> 01:22:08,640
Speaker 4: get caught up into and you can be here and

1318
01:22:08,680 --> 01:22:11,479
Speaker 4: gone in a minute if you're just just attached to that.

1319
01:22:12,040 --> 01:22:15,200
Speaker 4: But when you start dialing in to tradition and you

1320
01:22:15,240 --> 01:22:18,519
Speaker 4: start pulling in the pieces that kept those people that

1321
01:22:18,840 --> 01:22:21,200
Speaker 4: there's the reason why those people are around to this day,

1322
01:22:21,240 --> 01:22:22,360
Speaker 4: even if they're not alive.

1323
01:22:23,880 --> 01:22:29,000
Speaker 7: I think, for me, I think it's because I've always

1324
01:22:29,040 --> 01:22:34,120
Speaker 7: asked so many questions, right. I've always asked my grandfather,

1325
01:22:34,439 --> 01:22:38,439
Speaker 7: my mom, and my daddy what they liked, what people

1326
01:22:38,439 --> 01:22:42,360
Speaker 7: wanted to hear that. Now I asked those same questions

1327
01:22:42,400 --> 01:22:46,200
Speaker 7: to my children, and I think that for me is

1328
01:22:46,200 --> 01:22:49,600
Speaker 7: why I've personally been able to adapt to music and

1329
01:22:49,640 --> 01:22:53,479
Speaker 7: why I can still have appreciation for what's going on

1330
01:22:53,720 --> 01:22:55,160
Speaker 7: right Because there were certain artists.

1331
01:22:55,320 --> 01:22:58,599
Speaker 1: I'd be very honest, I didn't understand NBA young boy

1332
01:22:58,680 --> 01:23:00,320
Speaker 1: at first, get it.

1333
01:23:00,360 --> 01:23:02,800
Speaker 7: I ain't gonna lie. I'm not gonna lie. I was like, oh,

1334
01:23:02,800 --> 01:23:05,799
Speaker 7: you got a couple songs. I didn't understand though, really

1335
01:23:06,439 --> 01:23:10,559
Speaker 7: until I start having telling my son take the OX

1336
01:23:11,640 --> 01:23:13,599
Speaker 7: and were driving to school before he got his car,

1337
01:23:13,920 --> 01:23:17,000
Speaker 7: and we just listening and listening and listening. I'm researching.

1338
01:23:17,040 --> 01:23:20,120
Speaker 7: I'm like, Oh, I get it. I get why these

1339
01:23:20,200 --> 01:23:21,720
Speaker 7: kids are really tapped into him.

1340
01:23:21,720 --> 01:23:23,280
Speaker 1: I hear that, I hear that, I.

1341
01:23:23,200 --> 01:23:26,320
Speaker 7: Hear that the teenage angst, I hear that, you know

1342
01:23:26,360 --> 01:23:31,040
Speaker 7: what I mean. I can see why they're excited about it,

1343
01:23:31,160 --> 01:23:33,320
Speaker 7: right the way that I was excited about Snoop Dogg,

1344
01:23:33,680 --> 01:23:35,679
Speaker 7: all the way I was excited about Joe. To see,

1345
01:23:35,960 --> 01:23:38,439
Speaker 7: I can see how they're excited about bryceon Tiller, or

1346
01:23:38,479 --> 01:23:41,519
Speaker 7: they're excited about Chris Brown and those type of things.

1347
01:23:41,560 --> 01:23:45,519
Speaker 7: And I've always listened with open ears. I can't can

1348
01:23:45,560 --> 01:23:48,240
Speaker 7: tell you that about me, Like it ain't always got

1349
01:23:48,320 --> 01:23:50,880
Speaker 7: to be right for me. It just got to feel right,

1350
01:23:50,920 --> 01:23:54,080
Speaker 7: and it gotta feel good. And to me, this new

1351
01:23:54,160 --> 01:23:55,880
Speaker 7: music feel right and feel good.

1352
01:23:56,320 --> 01:23:58,200
Speaker 1: You know what I mean for the place that you're in,

1353
01:23:58,800 --> 01:24:01,280
Speaker 1: because that's the other thing about me. Music. Music is

1354
01:24:01,320 --> 01:24:04,120
Speaker 1: the only thing that can travel with you throughout your life.

1355
01:24:04,439 --> 01:24:07,439
Speaker 7: Anywhere you're going. You're gonna hear it in movies. You're

1356
01:24:07,439 --> 01:24:10,760
Speaker 7: gonna hear it at the games. You're gonna Like if

1357
01:24:10,760 --> 01:24:12,439
Speaker 7: I don't go to the basketball game or watch the

1358
01:24:12,479 --> 01:24:15,559
Speaker 7: basketball game on TV, I don't see it, I don't

1359
01:24:15,560 --> 01:24:20,519
Speaker 7: hear it. Music is different. It's everywhere, and you have

1360
01:24:20,600 --> 01:24:24,280
Speaker 7: a different emotion for it in different places. So now

01:24:24,280 --> 01:24:27,559
Speaker 7: that I'm in the space with my son, I got

01:24:50,200 --> 01:24:52,479
Speaker 1: It's like, Dad, they got records.

1372
01:24:52,960 --> 01:24:57,040
Speaker 7: Yeah, And I'm just I just have an open mind

1373
01:24:57,040 --> 01:24:59,080
Speaker 7: for it because my parents had an open mind.

1374
01:24:59,120 --> 01:24:59,880
Speaker 1: I didn't come from that house.

1375
01:25:00,040 --> 01:25:04,160
Speaker 7: Oh that said, you know, this is the best way

1376
01:25:04,160 --> 01:25:07,120
Speaker 7: I can put it. My mother's favorite two artists were

1377
01:25:07,200 --> 01:25:08,920
Speaker 7: Prints and Ice Cube.

1378
01:25:09,760 --> 01:25:11,719
Speaker 1: Really nice, doesn't make.

1379
01:25:11,560 --> 01:25:16,400
Speaker 7: Sense to the average person, but those are my mother's favorite.

1380
01:25:16,720 --> 01:25:20,960
Speaker 7: I'm talking about Top of the Top Prince and Ice Chid.

1381
01:25:22,439 --> 01:25:25,960
Speaker 7: So imagine as a kid, I'm hearing everything in between.

1382
01:25:26,000 --> 01:25:30,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, exactly. I like I like. I like music

01:25:36,560 --> 01:25:41,479

01:25:41,479 --> 01:25:45,880
Speaker 1: comes to like R and B music and you know, alternative,

1386
01:25:46,520 --> 01:25:52,400
Speaker 1: you know, just I always feel like I'm just always

1387
01:25:52,439 --> 01:25:54,479
Speaker 1: complaining it. But I don't mean to complain. I'll just

1388
01:25:54,520 --> 01:25:56,479
Speaker 1: be wanting changed to come you know what I mean.

1389
01:25:57,560 --> 01:26:06,280
Speaker 1: I just don't feel no church. Well I'm sorry because

1390
01:26:06,400 --> 01:26:13,160
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm listening, but I'm turned up. I'm turned

1391
01:26:13,200 --> 01:26:13,920
Speaker 1: all the way up.

1392
01:26:14,479 --> 01:26:17,400
Speaker 7: Let's go to me. I don't you gonna hear that

1393
01:26:17,439 --> 01:26:20,680
Speaker 7: with a Jazmine Sullivan. You gonna hear church? You here

1394
01:26:20,760 --> 01:26:21,519
Speaker 7: church with Jasmine?

1395
01:26:21,640 --> 01:26:26,040
Speaker 1: All right, I'm just talking about I'm talking about.

1396
01:26:25,479 --> 01:26:28,960
Speaker 4: There's very few and far in between. Now, Yes, it's

1397
01:26:28,960 --> 01:26:32,800
Speaker 4: then what its like it used to be. That's where

1398
01:26:32,840 --> 01:26:36,720
Speaker 4: you go to find the singer. Yeah, that used to

1399
01:26:36,720 --> 01:26:39,639
Speaker 4: be like a prerequisite. I saw him, he was singing

1400
01:26:39,640 --> 01:26:41,280
Speaker 4: in the church one day and I was like, man,

1401
01:26:41,320 --> 01:26:44,599
Speaker 4: you're gonna those are the stories when you go from

1402
01:26:44,680 --> 01:26:47,080
Speaker 4: Aretha Franklin and you go to you go to Rodney,

1403
01:26:47,160 --> 01:26:49,120
Speaker 4: you go to Whitney, Houston, and you go to like

1404
01:26:49,720 --> 01:26:54,759
Speaker 4: So to me, I understand what you're saying in terms

1405
01:26:54,800 --> 01:26:58,000
Speaker 4: of one of the ingredients that is missing.

1406
01:26:58,160 --> 01:27:06,240
Speaker 1: It's missing today miss church. And you don't even have

1407
01:27:06,320 --> 01:27:09,360
Speaker 1: to get it's just the when it comes to the

1408
01:27:09,479 --> 01:27:11,920
Speaker 1: black it's the feeling when it comes to black culture.

1409
01:27:12,439 --> 01:27:16,120
Speaker 1: What makes black culture it's church. Church. I don't think

1410
01:27:16,320 --> 01:27:18,080
Speaker 1: nobody's going to church no more.

1411
01:27:19,160 --> 01:27:24,719
Speaker 4: Because because because you would be inspired by church.

1412
01:27:25,040 --> 01:27:28,040
Speaker 1: Well here's the other part too. No church has changed.

1413
01:27:28,439 --> 01:27:29,519
Speaker 1: Church has changed.

1414
01:27:30,479 --> 01:27:33,519
Speaker 4: I didn't give you that. So, like church used to

1415
01:27:33,520 --> 01:27:38,040
Speaker 4: be about the choir, and we used to have the

1416
01:27:38,040 --> 01:27:42,120
Speaker 4: word three or four choses, so you had an opportunity

1417
01:27:42,680 --> 01:27:45,240
Speaker 4: to sing in church, to be part of something, part

1418
01:27:45,280 --> 01:27:49,760
Speaker 4: of that movement. Then church slowly moved to the praise team.

1419
01:27:51,000 --> 01:27:52,120
Speaker 4: Six people on the praise team.

1420
01:27:52,560 --> 01:27:53,000
Speaker 9: M hmm.

1421
01:27:53,240 --> 01:27:54,519
Speaker 1: So didn't leave a whole.

1422
01:27:54,400 --> 01:28:00,000
Speaker 4: Lot of room for anybody to participate, right, whether it be

1423
01:28:00,080 --> 01:28:00,960
Speaker 4: those solos.

1424
01:28:01,400 --> 01:28:06,200
Speaker 1: So they start making cuts like basketball church, it was

1425
01:28:06,320 --> 01:28:09,559
Speaker 1: just the way the p team just became. I mean

1426
01:28:10,080 --> 01:28:15,000
Speaker 1: I didn't so as you the church. I grew up preaching,

1427
01:28:15,040 --> 01:28:21,920
Speaker 1: it grew up. So that's we came together and we

1428
01:28:21,960 --> 01:28:31,200
Speaker 1: want Chicago Nigga. We both lifted off. Absolutely, that's funny that.

1429
01:28:31,800 --> 01:28:35,599
Speaker 1: But when I say church, I don't mean like church

1430
01:28:35,800 --> 01:28:41,519
Speaker 1: you talking about. Use the word church just if not

1431
01:28:42,479 --> 01:28:46,880
Speaker 1: more as the rhythm. The word is the root. The

1432
01:28:46,920 --> 01:28:50,599
Speaker 1: word funk. Yes, the word funk all comes from church,

1433
01:28:50,640 --> 01:28:53,120
Speaker 1: the word rhythm, all of it, and the word church,

1434
01:28:53,160 --> 01:28:53,800
Speaker 1: the black church.

1435
01:28:53,920 --> 01:28:55,599
Speaker 9: They all have.

1436
01:28:57,479 --> 01:29:00,720
Speaker 1: When you'd be like, man, it's funky, you'd be like

1437
01:29:00,760 --> 01:29:06,120
Speaker 1: this is soulful. It's soulful. It's James Brown. And I

1438
01:29:06,200 --> 01:29:09,880
Speaker 1: just think that no, no, no, nobody has Yes. James

1439
01:29:10,479 --> 01:29:15,559
Speaker 1: was a preacher, Angela was in church. Mary was in church. Church,

1440
01:29:15,720 --> 01:29:18,519
Speaker 1: you know. And so all I'm saying is that are

1441
01:29:18,520 --> 01:29:21,200
Speaker 1: we done with And I'm just asking, don't are we

1442
01:29:21,320 --> 01:29:22,400
Speaker 1: done with church? I don't think so.

1443
01:29:22,479 --> 01:29:22,519
Speaker 2: No.

1444
01:29:24,080 --> 01:29:25,519
Speaker 1: I think it goes everything goes away.

1445
01:29:26,800 --> 01:29:28,960
Speaker 4: As we're having an R and B way, as we're

1446
01:29:28,960 --> 01:29:31,960
Speaker 4: having starting to make it way back to the top

1447
01:29:32,040 --> 01:29:35,200
Speaker 4: of the conversation. Now people are gonna be like, Okay,

1448
01:29:35,200 --> 01:29:36,640
Speaker 4: well where are the singers.

1449
01:29:36,280 --> 01:29:42,000
Speaker 7: At Leon Thomas over there? Leon Thomas is nigga singing

1450
01:29:42,040 --> 01:29:44,720
Speaker 7: from a place. Leon Thomas are bad, you know what

1451
01:29:44,760 --> 01:29:45,439
Speaker 7: I'm saying.

1452
01:29:45,360 --> 01:29:48,720
Speaker 1: Like Chris Brown was in church. Yeah, no, you could.

1453
01:29:48,880 --> 01:29:51,320
Speaker 1: You could tell Christmas in church, you know what I mean?

1454
01:29:51,640 --> 01:29:55,000
Speaker 1: And I and I get that there are waves of

1455
01:29:55,120 --> 01:29:57,320
Speaker 1: music that has to be made, and I get that

1456
01:29:57,400 --> 01:29:59,639
Speaker 1: I'm with it all day long or whatever, but there's

1457
01:29:59,680 --> 01:30:02,519
Speaker 1: still some kind of church in that, you know what

1458
01:30:02,520 --> 01:30:05,439
Speaker 1: I mean. It's like it's you're still gonna feel it,

1459
01:30:05,560 --> 01:30:11,519
Speaker 1: Like I know this is gonna sound crazy like Ghanna

1460
01:30:12,240 --> 01:30:16,080
Speaker 1: his album, this last album. I think I don't really

1461
01:30:16,120 --> 01:30:18,320
Speaker 1: even listen to that kind of kind of album was

1462
01:30:18,880 --> 01:30:24,519
Speaker 1: phenomenal to me, and I don't even really I'm not

1463
01:30:24,560 --> 01:30:27,439
Speaker 1: like a trap kind of I don't even know if

1464
01:30:27,439 --> 01:30:33,400
Speaker 1: you consider it's like that, so melodic, so much feels

1465
01:30:33,560 --> 01:30:39,920
Speaker 1: like it's a vibe, it's a it's a grown I

1466
01:30:39,960 --> 01:30:43,719
Speaker 1: feel church in that dog. You feel you feel a spirit.

1467
01:30:43,840 --> 01:30:47,439
Speaker 1: I feel church in it. I feel like it's so full.

1468
01:30:48,400 --> 01:30:51,040
Speaker 1: Church is a connection, you know what I mean, It's like,

1469
01:30:51,920 --> 01:30:53,599
Speaker 1: oh wow, this is this kid.

1470
01:30:53,760 --> 01:30:57,519
Speaker 4: But that's that's also but that can not That's also

1471
01:30:57,640 --> 01:31:02,240
Speaker 4: can be a result of someone being honest and baring

1472
01:31:02,360 --> 01:31:05,479
Speaker 4: their heart and bearing their soul in something, and so

1473
01:31:05,560 --> 01:31:08,960
Speaker 4: that is going to create the connection needed, the feeling

1474
01:31:09,040 --> 01:31:11,519
Speaker 4: that you think because a lot of times, again there's

1475
01:31:11,560 --> 01:31:14,960
Speaker 4: this trendy music, there's this attempt to chase what sounds

1476
01:31:15,000 --> 01:31:17,920
Speaker 4: good on radio. There's this attempt to chase, Oh, chase

1477
01:31:17,920 --> 01:31:20,920
Speaker 4: the hottest producer or chase the hottest songwriter. And in

1478
01:31:20,960 --> 01:31:22,960
Speaker 4: those instances, yeah, you can get a hit record, but

1479
01:31:23,040 --> 01:31:26,880
Speaker 4: is it is it honest? Is it going to is

1480
01:31:26,920 --> 01:31:29,320
Speaker 4: it going to penetrate? Like a lot of times, it's

1481
01:31:29,400 --> 01:31:33,360
Speaker 4: like that's what I think artists should should, should focus on,

1482
01:31:34,200 --> 01:31:38,360
Speaker 4: focus on, focus on the heart and the mind of

1483
01:31:38,360 --> 01:31:43,040
Speaker 4: where you are and and use those songs to have

1484
01:31:43,080 --> 01:31:47,080
Speaker 4: that conversation and that is how you get the people.

1485
01:31:48,040 --> 01:31:49,640
Speaker 1: Like, yeah, there could be, there can be.

1486
01:31:49,720 --> 01:31:52,080
Speaker 4: There can be bodies of work that don't have hit songs,

1487
01:31:52,840 --> 01:31:58,639
Speaker 4: but the conversation in that project, it's just like, oh

1488
01:31:58,680 --> 01:32:03,960
Speaker 4: my god, this is incredible and it gives you that

1489
01:32:04,040 --> 01:32:06,680
Speaker 4: spiritual connection that you need that can get lost in

1490
01:32:07,520 --> 01:32:10,000
Speaker 4: all of the computer and all of the ship, you

1491
01:32:10,040 --> 01:32:12,200
Speaker 4: know what I'm saying. And I just we need the

01:34:00,360 --> 01:34:02,479
Speaker 4: and now and now the people listening to you are

1523
01:34:02,479 --> 01:34:04,160
Speaker 4: going to be like this, oh what's that?

1524
01:34:04,520 --> 01:34:04,920
Speaker 1: Yeah?

1525
01:34:05,280 --> 01:34:11,559
Speaker 4: And now you are now reprogramming people to fall back

1526
01:34:11,600 --> 01:34:14,280
Speaker 4: in love with the true essence of where all of

1527
01:34:14,320 --> 01:34:16,400
Speaker 4: this She said, As me and Jay say, we want

1528
01:34:16,439 --> 01:34:18,720
Speaker 4: to hear more, we want to see more, Okay, well,

1529
01:34:18,720 --> 01:34:20,919
Speaker 4: we have to actively make it. We have to actively

1530
01:34:20,920 --> 01:34:24,080
Speaker 4: go look for We can't wait for somebody else to

1531
01:34:25,280 --> 01:34:26,840
Speaker 4: do the thing that we know to do.

1532
01:34:27,520 --> 01:34:31,599
Speaker 7: And the and the most talented have to work because

1533
01:34:31,600 --> 01:34:34,599
Speaker 7: a lot of times the most talented don't want to work, lazy.

1534
01:34:34,720 --> 01:34:37,639
Speaker 1: But I think that then, I think that most talented

1535
01:34:37,680 --> 01:34:40,920
Speaker 1: people are inferior to what's going on right now. I

1536
01:34:40,960 --> 01:34:42,519
Speaker 1: don't feel like I don't want to do the world.

1537
01:34:42,520 --> 01:34:43,760
Speaker 1: I don't want to the world. I don't think.

1538
01:34:43,880 --> 01:34:48,200
Speaker 7: So I listen, I watched. I watched with my own

1548
01:35:26,160 --> 01:35:29,080
Speaker 1: He's a king right now. You know what I'm saying,

1549
01:35:29,120 --> 01:35:32,120
Speaker 1: Like he is I want to see him at a stadium.

1550
01:35:32,760 --> 01:35:36,040
Speaker 7: I remember going to see Kendrick at what's that what's

1551
01:35:36,040 --> 01:35:38,759
Speaker 7: the small room in across the street from Staples.

1552
01:35:40,040 --> 01:35:42,320
Speaker 4: It was it was me and you the club, Yeah,

1553
01:35:43,120 --> 01:35:44,920
Speaker 4: yvo something like that.

1554
01:35:45,520 --> 01:35:48,519
Speaker 1: I saw him open for hauling notes. What I think

1555
01:35:48,600 --> 01:35:50,840
Speaker 1: that I did. I saw him open for hall and

1556
01:35:50,920 --> 01:35:53,360
Speaker 1: notes and we spoke right after this.

1557
01:35:54,080 --> 01:36:00,800
Speaker 7: Come on to doing stadium work, the work because it

1558
01:36:00,840 --> 01:36:01,360
Speaker 7: was everything.

1559
01:36:01,400 --> 01:36:02,960
Speaker 1: Oh, he's a backpack rapper.

1560
01:36:03,080 --> 01:36:06,559
Speaker 7: If it is, he don't got the hiss toda da

1561
01:36:06,640 --> 01:36:07,520
Speaker 7: da da.

1562
01:36:07,240 --> 01:36:10,560
Speaker 4: Stadiums all the talent in the world. But if he

1563
01:36:10,800 --> 01:36:14,240
Speaker 4: just rests on talent alone, if he doesn't figure out,

1564
01:36:14,640 --> 01:36:17,560
Speaker 4: if he doesn't do the work to make hit records,

1565
01:36:17,840 --> 01:36:20,000
Speaker 4: to create to if he doesn't do the work to

1566
01:36:20,200 --> 01:36:23,320
Speaker 4: curate his moments the way that he does, because he's

1567
01:36:23,439 --> 01:36:26,400
Speaker 4: very particular about all of the moments that he's launched,

1568
01:36:26,640 --> 01:36:29,240
Speaker 4: if he doesn't do the work all of that talents.

1569
01:36:29,720 --> 01:36:33,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, nothing, But but I just I mean, and I

1570
01:36:33,400 --> 01:36:38,479
Speaker 1: hear you. Definitely, I just think that, like, let's let's

1571
01:36:38,520 --> 01:36:44,920
Speaker 1: bring it real quick, real Andre three thousand right, arguably

1572
01:36:45,439 --> 01:36:48,439
Speaker 1: one of the best I ever did it. Yes, absolutely

1573
01:36:49,600 --> 01:36:51,400
Speaker 1: doesn't want to do music no more.

1574
01:36:51,560 --> 01:36:54,640
Speaker 7: Right, why, I think that's just a personal choice, a

1575
01:36:54,680 --> 01:36:57,200
Speaker 7: personal I think it's a personal choice. And from what

1576
01:36:57,280 --> 01:36:58,840
Speaker 7: I've heard him say, it's like he's like, I don't

1577
01:36:58,840 --> 01:37:00,000
Speaker 7: got any rap about.

1578
01:37:01,280 --> 01:37:02,599
Speaker 1: I know. I heard him say that too.

1579
01:37:03,320 --> 01:37:05,680
Speaker 7: Maybe he thinks in his mind like a comedian, I

1580
01:37:05,680 --> 01:37:07,080
Speaker 7: didn't hold these jokes already.

1581
01:37:08,520 --> 01:37:12,760
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't want to music form, hey y'all

1582
01:37:12,760 --> 01:37:15,840
Speaker 1: again for him, he doesn't want to do that ever again.

1583
01:37:15,880 --> 01:37:18,639
Speaker 1: But that's what I'm saying. Maybe, And sometimes people don't.

1584
01:37:18,720 --> 01:37:20,960
Speaker 4: People don't just don't want to be defined by a

1585
01:37:21,080 --> 01:37:24,719
Speaker 4: thing anymore. Like if I can't be, if I can't

1586
01:37:24,720 --> 01:37:26,599
Speaker 4: be new, if I can't be, I'm good.

1587
01:37:26,640 --> 01:37:31,240
Speaker 1: I've done it. I learned a lot today.

1588
01:37:29,800 --> 01:37:34,360
Speaker 4: Like even if we go back in time and we

1589
01:37:34,479 --> 01:37:41,080
Speaker 4: talk about Whitney Houston, m H Like Whitney Houston was.

1590
01:37:42,680 --> 01:37:43,519
Speaker 1: Just stand alone.

1591
01:37:43,600 --> 01:37:45,760
Speaker 4: She could stand alone, stand in front of microphone and

1592
01:37:45,800 --> 01:37:48,519
Speaker 4: just and whoop your face off. But she did the

1593
01:37:48,560 --> 01:37:52,800
Speaker 4: work to create a show, yeah, and to put something together.

1594
01:37:52,920 --> 01:37:54,640
Speaker 4: When you went to go see with Houston, he was like,

1595
01:37:54,680 --> 01:37:57,240
Speaker 4: this the most amazing thing I've ever seen. And then

1596
01:37:57,439 --> 01:38:01,880
Speaker 4: the dancers was doing this, and the band was that's

1597
01:38:01,920 --> 01:38:02,800
Speaker 4: the work that had.

1598
01:38:03,080 --> 01:38:04,479
Speaker 1: I don't want to everybody don't want to work like

1599
01:38:04,520 --> 01:38:05,040
Speaker 1: being just.

1600
01:38:05,040 --> 01:38:10,240
Speaker 4: A listen Michael Jackson. Michael Jackson singing like that at nine.

1601
01:38:11,640 --> 01:38:13,400
Speaker 4: He didn't have to, he didn't have to learn all

1602
01:38:13,400 --> 01:38:19,720
Speaker 4: that other ship. But because he did. They see the

1603
01:38:19,920 --> 01:38:22,920
Speaker 4: end result. They see the concert of the stadium where

1604
01:38:22,920 --> 01:38:25,439
Speaker 4: they see the video and they see the all. They

1605
01:38:25,479 --> 01:38:29,479
Speaker 4: see the end result. But it's the process. Is the

1606
01:38:29,520 --> 01:38:32,120
Speaker 4: reason why there are only few artists that can live

1607
01:38:32,160 --> 01:38:34,760
Speaker 4: in that space. It's the process as to why only

1608
01:38:34,760 --> 01:38:38,160
Speaker 4: a few comedians can live in an esays, it's the

1609
01:38:38,320 --> 01:38:42,160
Speaker 4: work you've done. Yeah, yeah, yeah, definitely, it's the work.

1841
01:53:50,320 --> 01:53:53,000
Speaker 4: Because I couldn't understand that I was learning how to

1842
01:53:53,040 --> 01:53:55,720
Speaker 4: play I was teaching myself how to play piano, and

1843
01:53:55,760 --> 01:53:58,040
Speaker 4: what I was hearing on those songs, I was like,

1844
01:53:58,560 --> 01:53:59,800
Speaker 4: what the fuck is that.

1845
01:54:01,200 --> 01:54:05,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's and it's and it's never been duplicated. No, no,

1846
01:54:05,560 --> 01:54:09,200
Speaker 1: because she's too unique. No, you can't. You can't even

1847
01:54:10,240 --> 01:54:11,880
Speaker 1: you can't even duplicate it.

1848
01:54:12,280 --> 01:54:15,320
Speaker 4: You have to like somewhere along the line, God is

1849
01:54:15,320 --> 01:54:18,120
Speaker 4: going to have to give if he chooses to somebody

1850
01:54:18,320 --> 01:54:22,920
Speaker 4: that vocal chain. Yeah, and he stand the ideas behind it.

1851
01:54:23,320 --> 01:54:25,680
Speaker 4: There's no vocal chain like that.

1852
01:54:26,000 --> 01:54:30,839
Speaker 1: Yeah. The closest to me is Tony Braxton. That's the closes.

1853
01:54:31,840 --> 01:54:38,760
Speaker 1: But remember we were talking about crisp and clean. She's cleaner.

1854
01:54:40,160 --> 01:54:44,000
Speaker 4: Her her her voice because Tony is Tony got some

1855
01:54:44,120 --> 01:54:46,840
Speaker 4: grunge on her voice. She got some grit on her voice.

1856
01:54:47,440 --> 01:54:53,000
Speaker 4: Anita Baker has has her voice resonates, there's a certain

1857
01:54:53,080 --> 01:54:56,000
Speaker 4: clarity at the top of it that it's just it

1858
01:54:56,200 --> 01:54:59,320
Speaker 4: just red like and she's and she's anointed.

1859
01:55:00,120 --> 01:55:00,360
Speaker 9: Yeah.

1860
01:55:00,760 --> 01:55:02,440
Speaker 4: She sang Happy Birthday of Usher one day and I

1861
01:55:02,440 --> 01:55:06,920
Speaker 4: cried a little bit. I would have too, I'm in

1862
01:55:06,960 --> 01:55:16,160

1863
01:55:16,520 --> 01:55:21,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, man, she I don't know why more people don't

1864
01:55:21,840 --> 01:55:24,560
Speaker 1: talk about her like that. Well, because it's like you said,

1865
01:55:25,280 --> 01:55:26,880
Speaker 1: it's hard to duplicate it. Yeah.

1866
01:55:28,040 --> 01:55:30,120
Speaker 4: The ones that you can study and steal things from

1867
01:55:30,120 --> 01:55:33,680
Speaker 4: and and and and really grab a piece of it

1868
01:55:33,720 --> 01:55:37,400
Speaker 4: and understand it and replicate it all the time. We

1869
01:55:37,520 --> 01:55:40,640
Speaker 4: can all figure out how to do the moonwalk. Yeah,

1870
01:55:41,400 --> 01:55:47,040
Speaker 4: but we can all go yeah, we can duplicate that. Yeah,

1871
01:55:47,200 --> 01:55:52,040
Speaker 4: you can't wait, Anita. Yeah, somethings on my mind.

1872
01:55:52,120 --> 01:55:54,920
Speaker 1: And I asked this before somewhere, and this is a great,

1873
01:55:55,720 --> 01:55:58,160
Speaker 1: great fucking place to ask this. And I know I'm

1874
01:55:58,160 --> 01:56:01,520
Speaker 1: about I'm going off. Hold o, no, no, no, no,

1875
01:56:01,640 --> 01:56:03,560
Speaker 1: I know we got to get out of herets listen.

1876
01:56:04,680 --> 01:56:06,160
Speaker 1: So I went to and I and I brought this

1877
01:56:06,280 --> 01:56:09,640
Speaker 1: up before I went to go see YouTube at the

1878
01:56:09,720 --> 01:56:14,760
Speaker 1: Spear best concert I ever seen in my life? Right,

1879
01:56:14,840 --> 01:56:19,280
Speaker 1: can imagine? Okay, I'm talking hit at the Hit at

1880
01:56:19,280 --> 01:56:27,080
Speaker 1: the here right yep? YouTube sold out five shows a

1881
01:56:27,120 --> 01:56:37,640
Speaker 1: week at twenty thousand people for five months straight. Okay,

1882
01:56:37,920 --> 01:56:42,440
Speaker 1: let me say that again, please, twenty thousand people five

1883
01:56:42,520 --> 01:56:46,840
Speaker 1: shows a week for five months straight. Now, sometimes it

1884
01:56:46,920 --> 01:56:49,560
Speaker 1: was two shows a day, which made them do four

1885
01:56:49,680 --> 01:56:53,240
Speaker 1: days a week. Something like that too, maybe a maybe

1886
01:56:53,280 --> 01:56:56,400
Speaker 1: a three and an eight whatever the fuck? Five shows

1887
01:56:56,440 --> 01:57:05,320
Speaker 1: a week right for five months straight? What black artists

1888
01:57:06,520 --> 01:57:12,560
Speaker 1: do you know? That can do that, that's alive. Because

1889
01:57:12,640 --> 01:57:14,520
Speaker 1: I feel as though that when it comes to the

1890
01:57:14,600 --> 01:57:19,520
Speaker 1: Rolling Stones and YouTube and Aerosmith and whatever like, they

1891
01:57:19,560 --> 01:57:22,560
Speaker 1: have a coat following because a lot of white people

1892
01:57:22,640 --> 01:57:26,080
Speaker 1: they follow these careers or their legends and they keep

1893
01:57:26,080 --> 01:57:28,520
Speaker 1: them alive, and they keep their music alive, and they

1894
01:57:29,040 --> 01:57:31,360
Speaker 1: pass it down to their generations of people and they

1895
01:57:32,240 --> 01:57:35,120
Speaker 1: go see them constantly and they know these songs or whatever.

1896
01:57:35,200 --> 01:57:38,240
Speaker 1: When it comes to our black artists living a dead

1897
01:57:38,320 --> 01:57:41,240
Speaker 1: or live though, I'm talking a lot live to me,

1898
01:57:42,080 --> 01:57:44,240
Speaker 1: I'm talking. I'm talking. I'm talking about when it comes

1899
01:57:44,320 --> 01:57:48,760
Speaker 1: to our black artists, we don't pass that down. And

1900
01:57:48,800 --> 01:57:51,600
Speaker 1: then if we do pass it down, we're not going

1901
01:57:51,640 --> 01:57:54,080
Speaker 1: to support them and see them like that. And I

1902
01:57:54,120 --> 01:57:56,760
Speaker 1: said this on other shows before, like I went to

1903
01:57:56,800 --> 01:57:59,720
Speaker 1: go see artists and been in the audience and been

1904
01:57:59,840 --> 01:58:03,040
Speaker 1: like like why, like why ain't there so many people here?

1905
01:58:03,120 --> 01:58:11,400
Speaker 4: And about this though, too, how many of our artists

1906
01:58:12,080 --> 01:58:17,200
Speaker 4: have established a platform that big?

1907
01:58:17,920 --> 01:58:20,240
Speaker 1: And this is what I'm saying, first of all, anybody

1908
01:58:20,280 --> 01:58:21,640
Speaker 1: that could have is dead.

1909
01:58:22,040 --> 01:58:24,480
Speaker 4: Because it's only it's only two R and B artists

1910
01:58:24,520 --> 01:58:27,000
Speaker 4: doing doing stadiums right.

1911
01:58:27,040 --> 01:58:30,120
Speaker 7: Right, I say, because this is also you two takes

1912
01:58:30,120 --> 01:58:32,480
Speaker 7: time off, right, Yeah, they do take it.

1913
01:58:32,560 --> 01:58:36,000
Speaker 1: You takes time off. So the only artists that I

1914
01:58:36,120 --> 01:58:39,320
Speaker 1: believe could do that what you just said, five shows,

1915
01:58:39,400 --> 01:58:42,880
Speaker 1: twenty thousand, I know the numbers.

1916
01:58:44,280 --> 01:58:46,800
Speaker 7: Can do it if she takes five years off, four

1917
01:58:46,880 --> 01:58:48,400
Speaker 7: years or a couple of years off, and they're like,

1918
01:58:48,480 --> 01:58:51,720
Speaker 7: this is this is the finale? Because that's w how

1919
01:58:51,760 --> 01:58:53,280
Speaker 7: they that's how that's also how they.

1920
01:58:53,200 --> 01:58:57,720
Speaker 1: Promote those those runs. They promote those runs as you

1921
01:58:57,760 --> 01:58:59,800
Speaker 1: may never see them. You may never see this again.

1922
01:59:00,320 --> 01:59:03,000
Speaker 1: But I don't. I don't look at and I get it,

1923
01:59:03,040 --> 01:59:06,400
Speaker 1: but I don't look at Beyonce as a She's a legend,

1924
01:59:06,400 --> 01:59:08,560
Speaker 1: don't get me wrong, She's legendary and all that, but

1925
01:59:08,600 --> 01:59:11,680
Speaker 1: I still think she's relevant right now whatever you know,

1926
01:59:11,720 --> 01:59:13,840
Speaker 1: she's still making new music. Yes, you're talking about a

1927
01:59:13,960 --> 01:59:17,080
Speaker 1: legacy artist that's not talking about it, thank you. We

1928
01:59:17,080 --> 01:59:22,520
Speaker 1: don't haven't. We don't have that maybe maybe, but do

1929
01:59:22,600 --> 01:59:23,240
Speaker 1: we have one?

1930
01:59:23,480 --> 01:59:23,760
Speaker 2: Five?

1931
01:59:23,800 --> 01:59:27,920
Speaker 4: But is it one that has that has built their brand?

1932
01:59:27,960 --> 01:59:31,320
Speaker 4: Like talk about you too, that they've they've been doing stadiums.

1933
01:59:32,200 --> 01:59:37,520
Speaker 4: So it takes it takes that level of fan base

1934
01:59:37,600 --> 01:59:41,040
Speaker 4: and artistry to even get to a point to where

1935
01:59:41,040 --> 01:59:43,000
Speaker 4: you can do a y Q that many can the

1936
01:59:43,040 --> 01:59:45,640
Speaker 4: black artists do that. But who's been in stadium? And

1937
01:59:45,760 --> 01:59:47,600
Speaker 4: so that's what last R and B artists they do

1938
01:59:47,800 --> 01:59:49,200
Speaker 4: stuff like that at STATEUS Michael.

1939
01:59:49,000 --> 01:59:52,320
Speaker 1: Jackson Jackson And that's what I'm saying. That's all I

1940
01:59:52,360 --> 01:59:55,800
Speaker 1: let them saying. We don't have that at a different level.

1941
01:59:55,840 --> 01:59:57,760
Speaker 7: We don't, we don't, we don't, we don't support through

1942
01:59:57,760 --> 01:59:58,320
Speaker 7: the generation.

1943
01:59:58,760 --> 02:00:01,440
Speaker 1: You know, the one person I thought can do that,

1944
02:00:01,880 --> 02:00:07,960
Speaker 1: Diana Ross. Diana Ross, that's the only person. And look

1945
02:00:08,000 --> 02:00:15,520
Speaker 1: at y'all if you did if you did that, you

1946
02:00:15,560 --> 02:00:18,200
Speaker 1: did Diana Ross on the weekend. That's and and and

1947
02:00:18,280 --> 02:00:21,879
Speaker 1: I'm being I'm being generous. I think on the weekend

1949
02:00:27,640 --> 02:00:30,760
Speaker 1: that's five days. It'd be tough to be tough to do.
