Speaker 1: Welcome to Carefully Reckless, the production of Our Heart Radio
Speaker 1: and the Black Effect Diet. Ask back there, nice little
Speaker 1: ass back there, Nice little ass back there. Nice And
Speaker 1: just like that, we're back on and welcome back to
Speaker 1: another episode of Carefully Reckless. What's your Girl? Just hilarious?
Speaker 1: Now listen, it's no story time today. There's a venting
Speaker 1: piece that I need everybody to hear, especially if you
Speaker 1: are an avid listener of my podcast. Now, like I
Speaker 1: said multiple times, I try to create all types of
Speaker 1: content for everybody. Now, everybody don't like everything I do.
Speaker 1: I understand. We got people who only love me for
Speaker 1: just with the mess. I rarely do that anymore. So
Speaker 1: I've lost those people. Okay, fine, but it's my job
Speaker 1: to keep creating to gain those people back. It's some
Speaker 1: people that only like me for this podcast. They like
Speaker 1: the way I talk, They rather not see me. They
Speaker 1: like the way I touch on things. They like to
Speaker 1: understand my perspective. They like to hear what I think
Speaker 1: about certain things that they are scared to say. They
Speaker 1: like to hear me speak on certain ship that everybody
Speaker 1: don't like to speak on or whatever because they're scared
Speaker 1: of the blowback. They're scared of the feedback. Okay, that's
Speaker 1: why I'm here. You've got people that only like me
Speaker 1: for Whiling Out, and I don't understand how because they
Speaker 1: always delete my fucking scenes, So I don't even know
Speaker 1: how anybody has ever seen me on Wilding Out. You've
Speaker 1: got people who only like me for the real show,
Speaker 1: the sitcom that I played the series lead role in
Speaker 1: the female series lead role as Brittany. You've got people
Speaker 1: that only like me for radio purposes. When I was
Speaker 1: doing Destination with Ricky Smiley and you know, the Ricky
Speaker 1: Smiley Morning Show. People like me for different things. You
Speaker 1: understand what I'm saying. Not everybody's gonna like everything, and
Speaker 1: I get it. It's the same way with other influencers.
Speaker 1: Not everybody's gonna like everything you do. It bothers me
Speaker 1: to the pits of my soul to get online and
Speaker 1: then see somebody else doing the ship that I'm doing.
Speaker 1: Now listen, it could be taking two different ways. It
Speaker 1: could be that great minds just think alike. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. It could be that I rub off
Speaker 1: or motherfucker's and some people, you know, I help evolve
Speaker 1: And Okay, if she can do it. I can do it,
Speaker 1: and then you got another way to look at it.
Speaker 1: It's just pure thievery, some ship that you wasn't even
Speaker 1: thinking about doing, some ship that you just wasn't original
Speaker 1: enough to think of yourself to do. I did it.
Speaker 1: I did it, and then I jump on the line
Speaker 1: and I see you do it. Now you know me.
Speaker 1: You know me. Quite a few of your motherfucker's know me.
Speaker 1: Y'all have these These were not friends, but but we
Speaker 1: have some type of camaraderie. We have some type of
Speaker 1: line of communication between us where y'all can pick up
Speaker 1: a phone or d M or everybody got my motherfucker
Speaker 1: number where they can say, oh, look, I was thinking
Speaker 1: about doing something like you was doing with the video
Speaker 1: where you do this and where you do that. That
Speaker 1: the new creation it of content that you just made
Speaker 1: up your damn self that I never ever, ever ever
Speaker 1: seen before. UM, help me figure out some ship like that,
Speaker 1: so I don't have to do exactly what you do,
Speaker 1: so I don't have to create a replica of your
Speaker 1: exact content. Help me brainstorm, help me do these things.
Speaker 1: Help me. I have no problem with helping anybody. In fact,
Speaker 1: I've written a couple of jokes for a couple of motherfucker's.
Speaker 1: I've helped people get over stage fright. I've helped people
Speaker 1: become numb to the trolls online. I help people bounce
Speaker 1: back from from being canceled and ship. I've helped people
Speaker 1: clap back at motherfucker's who didn't even deserve no clap back.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, I've grown out of that
Speaker 1: shed a whole lot. Now it's a lot of back
Speaker 1: clapping that I that I would do that I used
Speaker 1: to do. You know what I'm saying, I've grown out
Speaker 1: of doing that ship so much. I really have anything
Speaker 1: to say about anybody else and what the funk they
Speaker 1: do because I don't follow people. I don't see your ship.
Speaker 1: That's why I don't follow people. I don't need nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing.
Speaker 1: I don't need nothing to nobody coming back saying, well,
Speaker 1: she stole that video from such and such. Oh man,
Speaker 1: she knew, she knew that Nigga was doing that ship
Speaker 1: like that before she started doing it. Well, she knew
Speaker 1: that she got that from Nah, you ain't gonna never
Speaker 1: be able to say I got nothing from nobody. That's
Speaker 1: what I pride my ship on like rappers. Real rappers
Speaker 1: pride themselves on pushing that pen Nicki Minaj. That's all
Speaker 1: she wanted everybody to know. She wrote everything, everything that
Speaker 1: ever came out mouth and her opinion. She can wrap
Speaker 1: circles around bitches with any topic, on any topic. That's
Speaker 1: how you post to feel. She wants you all to
Speaker 1: know every rapper out there, both male and female, both
Speaker 1: old and young, mumble or realistic, whatever she telling you.
Speaker 1: I wrote everything that came out of my mouth, me
Speaker 1: every single joke I took on stage. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. That comes from my experience, and I didn't
Speaker 1: get jokes from nobody else. I've been accused of stealing jokes.
Speaker 1: Somebody accused me of stealing a joke from Dave Chappelle.
Speaker 1: How the fuck what? I'm still a joke from Dave
Speaker 1: Chappelle and nobody knows it. Like you mean to tell me,
Speaker 1: I would do that willingly and expect for nobody to
Speaker 1: find out. Get the funk out of here. Nah, I
Speaker 1: never did that. You know, people are accused of things
Speaker 1: every day, all day. I want you all to know
Speaker 1: I created each and every single piece of content on
Speaker 1: my page and YouTube my damn self. I have a brother.
Speaker 1: He's a writer. Name is Desi. He goes on tour
Speaker 1: with me. He opens up for me. He's on his
Speaker 1: own tour now. I helped create lanes for Motherfucker's you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, And I'm very I'm very humble
Speaker 1: about it. My humility is at an all time high.
Speaker 1: My brother was a writer. He still is, but he
Speaker 1: was a stand up comic for about fifteen years. He
Speaker 1: pushed me into it. He got me wanting to do
Speaker 1: the ship, you know what I'm saying. Him and one
Speaker 1: other guy from Baltimore City got me out of that.
Speaker 1: Now I'm just gonna make videos for now. I'm good.
Speaker 1: I don't want to do to stand up ship. They
Speaker 1: pushed me to go up there. This nigga set with
Speaker 1: me and really helped me structure what a solid hour
Speaker 1: of comedy is. He helped me it shipped into perspective.
Speaker 1: He helped me put my real life down on paper
Speaker 1: so I can look at it. And I realized that
Speaker 1: ain't what I wanted to do. Okay, I don't want
Speaker 1: to write comedy. I just give me a topic and
Speaker 1: I can go off. I'm real good at improv. So
Speaker 1: my brother helped me get into the fucking stand up
Speaker 1: comedy world, and I helped him with the social media lane.
Speaker 1: Like my brother is older, he's in his mid thirties,
Speaker 1: and ship he ain't really know not boy, the social
Speaker 1: media I got him making the videos like all right, cool,
Speaker 1: you're funny and ships, he go ahead and do that.
Speaker 1: I've did that with a lot of other fucking people
Speaker 1: as well. I've helped a lot of women that shall
Speaker 1: biotic is the gold see now, A lot of these
Speaker 1: young ladies helped them structure their material. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. No, I don't want to fucking award. No,
Speaker 1: I don't want to fucking cookie. I want some fucking respects.
Speaker 1: Stop stealing my ship. That's just what it is. I'm
Speaker 1: a vet to y'all because y'all gonna listen, and you're
Speaker 1: not gonna bash me for speaking my ship. I don't
Speaker 1: feel like I'm better than anybody. I feel like I'm
Speaker 1: in my own fucking lane. I don't want to do
Speaker 1: what everybody else do, So I don't I create trends.
Speaker 1: I create new, fresh comical content that nobody has ever
Speaker 1: fucking thought of doing in my generation. I got a
Speaker 1: lot of greats behind me on this ship I do.
Speaker 1: I started recently doing over quarantine comical videos on thoughts,
Speaker 1: what women thinking, as opposed to what we say, what
Speaker 1: women really really want to say to these men, or
Speaker 1: what women really want to say to each other. With
Speaker 1: Barbara's want to say to their clients, what hairstyle is
Speaker 1: want to say to their clients, what kids want to
Speaker 1: say to their parents. I started the whole thoughts ship
Speaker 1: when it comes to comedy. You know what I'm saying. No,
Speaker 1: I didn't invent people thinking. No, I didn't invent people's
Speaker 1: thoughts for the smartasses who's going to dig further into
Speaker 1: what I say and try to pick it apart and
Speaker 1: make something negative out of it. But no, I gonna
Speaker 1: see you. I'm the first motherfucker online to do videos
Speaker 1: with thoughts. Now y'all can say, how do you say that?
Speaker 1: And you don't follow nobody I'm saying at it because
Speaker 1: I don't. If I see it, it ain't been done.
Speaker 1: That's exactly how you gotta be these days. It's very
Speaker 1: hard to stand out on a platform where everybody's trying
Speaker 1: to stand out. Do you understand it's very hard being original.
Speaker 1: I get it as hard as it is being original
Speaker 1: in a world where everybody is trying to do the
Speaker 1: same ship. To get on, you still gotta dig down
Speaker 1: deep and figure out what you're fucking good at, what
Speaker 1: your people want to see you do, what you can
Speaker 1: stand out and do. When I started doing that ship,
Speaker 1: my engagement went up millions. Every video I've put up
Speaker 1: since the middle of Quarantine. When I really really cracked
Speaker 1: down on my content and really started seeing what's missing
Speaker 1: out there, how can I be different? That's when I
Speaker 1: started getting more engagement. My insights increased, YouTube viewers and
Speaker 1: subscribers went up. All that ship, more sponsors came out
Speaker 1: the woodwork endorsements, more celebrities, A lists, be list, whatever
Speaker 1: the fuck you know. They started fucking reaching out, networks
Speaker 1: reaching out. Okay, okay, okay, we're gonna give you a show. Here,
Speaker 1: We're gonna give it. Man. If I can give your
Speaker 1: dollar for every time somebody said they would give me
Speaker 1: a show, y'all will have a lot of money. I'm
Speaker 1: just letting you know that. But that's because I created
Speaker 1: something that they liked, something that was that they hadn't
Speaker 1: seen before, especially in this time. I'm a millennial. I am, okay, cool,
Speaker 1: I'm twenty nine, but I'm still considered a millennial by
Speaker 1: these older people who's never seen this ship done the
Speaker 1: way I do it. So it really really fucking hurts
Speaker 1: my feelings and it makes me getting my fucking bag
Speaker 1: and in this mood when I opened up Instagram and
Speaker 1: I see motherfucker's I know doing the same ship I'm doing,
Speaker 1: trying to do the same ship. Now, it was always
Speaker 1: gonna be somebody emulating, okay, and that's what I want
Speaker 1: y'all to understand too. Let's separate the emulators from haters.
Speaker 1: I'm never gonna say somebody's a hater. It's a total
Speaker 1: different definition behind hater, because these people will consider themselves
Speaker 1: to be my associates, like really really cool, but taking
Speaker 1: my ship no no, no, no, no, no, no no no.
Speaker 1: I don't know if this got something to do where
Speaker 1: I'm from, or does it have something to do with
Speaker 1: the way I was raised or how I really am
Speaker 1: and and inside of me. But I don't like that ship.
Speaker 1: That ship, corny, I should have clowned the funk out
Speaker 1: that you can't sit there and create your own lane.
Speaker 1: I don't like it, and I'm very humble, like I
Speaker 1: said before, And y'all know this, if y'all know me
Speaker 1: for real or y'all Day One fans, y'all know how
Speaker 1: humble I am. Y'all know how much should I could
Speaker 1: be talking right now, not doing that for what. I
Speaker 1: don't believe in downing other people to make yourself feel
Speaker 1: good about your success. I don't need to dawn nobody,
Speaker 1: but I don't like seeing that ship. Now. We got
Speaker 1: a commercial, and if you click off this podcast, I
Speaker 1: swear I'm gonna beat your ass. Listen, And with that
Speaker 1: being said, ain't no, just fix my mess today, because
Speaker 1: I'm the one with the mess right now. I'm the
Speaker 1: one with the mess. I need somebody to make sense
Speaker 1: of all this bullshit. Okay, I'm the one. No, Listen,
Speaker 1: We're gonna get into the current news. Soldier Boy prime example.
Speaker 1: Every time this boy, this man tweets about his accomplishments,
Speaker 1: how far he's bought our generations, and how he's supposed
Speaker 1: to get more flowers right now, and how he's supposed
Speaker 1: to get more recognition for the ship that he's created.
Speaker 1: He's created trends, music beats, memes, fucking flows, and ad
Speaker 1: lives and certain ship that other rappers take and didn't
Speaker 1: give him credit for. Now, Listen, the internet tears this
Speaker 1: man down every time he gives his self flowers. But
Speaker 1: who the fun gonna give him to him? If we
Speaker 1: ain't giving it to him him? Now when he died,
Speaker 1: everybody's gonna be bumping Soldier Boy, tell him or what
Speaker 1: kiss me? There? All the ship that he's trying to
Speaker 1: tell y'all that he started, he invented FaceTime, believe it,
Speaker 1: believe it? FaceTime? What out when that song came out?
Speaker 1: A lot of ship Drake has done. Okay, got from
Speaker 1: Soldier Boy, all right? A lot of ship out, a
Speaker 1: lot of a lot of these fucking rappers. Did they
Speaker 1: need to pay homage to Soldier Boy? That's all he's saying.
Speaker 1: But they may feel because he's younger than they are,
Speaker 1: or you know, they made it a little further or
Speaker 1: a lot further than he did. They don't need to
Speaker 1: give nobody no recognition, you know what I'm saying. That's
Speaker 1: how a lot of people feel online as well. You
Speaker 1: could be a small fraud in your own city, local, whatever.
Speaker 1: Somebody can be bigger than you. Here's some ship that
Speaker 1: you're doing take it, not pay you for it, don't
Speaker 1: recognize you for it, don't even say, hey, yo, look
Speaker 1: let me buy that off you, let me buy that
Speaker 1: joke off you. Look what you think if I start
Speaker 1: doing the videos like this or you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: And then when they ship had a blog or something,
Speaker 1: or when somebody recognized and see the bigger person doing it,
Speaker 1: they feel like, oh, ship, they created this. Nah, this
Speaker 1: ship came from a whole another person. Just like in
Speaker 1: the rap industry or with music or whatever, we keep
Speaker 1: saying these people coming out like, Yo, this person stole
Speaker 1: a song from me, what the fuck uh? This person
Speaker 1: stole this rap from me, man or this person stole
Speaker 1: U outdea from me. And then we as the fucking
Speaker 1: people I'm gonna say we because I'm a part of 'all.
Speaker 1: We're looking at how big the star is. Stars still
Speaker 1: as well, Yeah, they do. Influence is still rappers, still,
Speaker 1: it happens in every industry. People still wraps, people still flows,
Speaker 1: people still beats and act like it's there's just because
Speaker 1: they got a bigger name. You know, people still ideas
Speaker 1: of films. I know a filmmaker in l A who's
Speaker 1: from the d n V right now. This person will
Speaker 1: get ideas from people at home and ship like that,
Speaker 1: then take them back to Hollywood like like he made
Speaker 1: the ship. You feeling me like you did this ship.
Speaker 1: You ain't do this ship. You're going back because ain't
Speaker 1: nobody credible enough at home that you're still in these
Speaker 1: fucking ideas from to really make a case and exposure
Speaker 1: asks for stealing their work. That happens everywhere. I just
Speaker 1: wore a jacket not too long ago. Shout out the
Speaker 1: fly Kid and why that's his name, or I G
Speaker 1: that's a black owned designer. He's from New York. He's
Speaker 1: had so many people try to steal his design. You know,
Speaker 1: I was wearing a jacket which was a replica of
Speaker 1: his ship. He didn't even drop the official jacket. It's
Speaker 1: people that that's still I'm talking about places where we
Speaker 1: shot that. Every day that we spend top dollar on.
Speaker 1: Louis still Gucci, still all the motherfucker's still shop Akira.
Speaker 1: They stole fly Kid in wise design and started putting
Speaker 1: it on jackets and remaking jackers and ship and they
Speaker 1: sold it. Now he sued them. They wanted they were
Speaker 1: supposed to see and desist any and everything. All merchandise
Speaker 1: you'll can't sell them are so what they did they
Speaker 1: sold the ship to still make money off of it
Speaker 1: and ain't in their store, it's not on their website.
Speaker 1: But they sold the rest of the replicas to other
Speaker 1: boutiques and ship to still make money off the ship.
Speaker 1: Why the fuck you just can't sit down in your
Speaker 1: house and just think, think why you can't hire an
Speaker 1: artist to draw some shut up? Why you can't like
Speaker 1: motherfucker's just it's it kills you to be original. And
Speaker 1: then now of the days, people ain't happy with originality.
Speaker 1: People get bored with originality, like Megan. When Megan first
Speaker 1: came out, everybody loved it. They was on every freestyle,
Speaker 1: every video, every song, every hit, every picture, every Turk video, everything.
Speaker 1: Y'all loved this woman, this woman with man. We all
Speaker 1: loved the like love it. I still do, everybody. A
Speaker 1: lot of people still do. But it's like y'all love
Speaker 1: people until the novelty wears out on you. It's like
Speaker 1: y'all want people to be successful, but not too successful.
Speaker 1: The Shorty really really started getting out there. She collaborated
Speaker 1: with the Baby, which I think that is the most
Speaker 1: dopest collaboration that we've heard in years is The Baby
Speaker 1: and Mega Stallion and y'all even saying that shit about him,
Speaker 1: same him. Everybody loved him when he came out. Now
Speaker 1: is oh my god? Our song sounded like, Oh my god,
Speaker 1: that's her original flow. And ain't no other bit y'aut
Speaker 1: here that sound like her. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: That's her flow, just like you know Nikki, when you
Speaker 1: hear Nikki song, you ain't gotta listen past three seconds
Speaker 1: to no here. That's Niggy, you know, it's Megan. That's
Speaker 1: her flow, that's her original flow. She got that texas,
Speaker 1: that deep that yeah, like, that's her. That's that's who
Speaker 1: she is. The Baby. You can understand everything this this nigga,
Speaker 1: say his cadence, everything about him. Yeah, a lot of
Speaker 1: his songs sounded like a lot of Mega songs sounded
Speaker 1: like But that's their original style of rapping. That's who
Speaker 1: they are, the Megoes that will never be another fucking Megos.
Speaker 1: They call them the Black Beetles, that's what they call them. No,
Speaker 1: they are the Megos. They've created a sound that's original.
Speaker 1: Nobody's sound like I don't given how mad Gucci Man
Speaker 1: get or how mad Future Man. Y'all niggas cannot sound
Speaker 1: like the Three Men. Yeah, it's nobody out here that
Speaker 1: can do that. It's like they got rock and roll rap,
Speaker 1: like they rock stars. That's that, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: They got their own They got their own fucking sound.
Speaker 1: That's who they are. That's original. Everybody complaining about them
Speaker 1: or their music sound the same too. That's their original
Speaker 1: fucking sound. So that's why in my line of work,
Speaker 1: I love to keep creating and keep sitting down in
Speaker 1: the duck and I keep saying this ship because that
Speaker 1: is what puts me into a meditative state where I
Speaker 1: can create. I go sit in the room, I send
Speaker 1: ash with my mother. I will send the dog to
Speaker 1: a goddamn kennel. I don't give a fuck. I don't
Speaker 1: want my boyfriend around me. I don't want or whoever
Speaker 1: I'm talking to at the time don't come around me.
Speaker 1: I don't need my none of my two three friends
Speaker 1: to be around me. Whatever. I go sit my ass
Speaker 1: in the dark TV off. I talked to God, I pray,
Speaker 1: and then I just I smoke a blunt and then
Speaker 1: I start getting right because that ship flows when I'm hire,
Speaker 1: it is what it is. That's how I sat and
Speaker 1: I thought about doing the videos about what we think
Speaker 1: as opposed to what we say, and like I said,
Speaker 1: that brings me back to this, everybody can do it.
Speaker 1: If I can do it, everybody can do that ship
Speaker 1: create something that ain't never been done before or niggas
Speaker 1: ain't seen in decades and decades and decades. And I'm saying,
Speaker 1: go back and watch old comedy, see if you can
Speaker 1: stem something from there, not still, but stem because sometimes
Speaker 1: when you watch somebody you can kind of like emulate them,
Speaker 1: but it may be another idea that you may get
Speaker 1: to that other person didn't didn't tackle. But see, I
Speaker 1: don't need to do that. I don't need to do that.
Speaker 1: That's for people who cannot be original. That's for people
Speaker 1: who can't sit down and figure out ways to do ship.
Speaker 1: There's a tip right there that you can be different.
Speaker 1: You know, go back and watch some old ship from
Speaker 1: the seventies the eighties and ship. That ship is still there.
Speaker 1: Recreate something you know, but don't do what the fun
Speaker 1: somebody doing right now with this day and age, that
Speaker 1: ship gets watered down. Like when when they just started
Speaker 1: trying to do the jest with the mess baby. No,
Speaker 1: hell no, it's saying it ain't gonna work. I don't
Speaker 1: give a funk if I stopped doing it the day.
Speaker 1: If you're gonna do it, you better do it right,
Speaker 1: because better believe it ain't touching my ship. Period. Bitches
Speaker 1: whore doing the motherfucking thought videos, niggas who doing the
Speaker 1: thoughts videos, you better do it the funk right because
Speaker 1: they ain't touching my ship. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: I don't like that ship, and it is what it is.
Speaker 1: Now let's kick it over to a brief break. Another thing.
Speaker 1: I work very, very fucking hard. A lot of y'all
Speaker 1: can attest to this as well. Y'all haven't seen me
Speaker 1: on TV since I did the show. Real, that's been
Speaker 1: three years, three hard fucking years of me trying to
Speaker 1: get back there. I'm just letting y'all in on my world,
Speaker 1: on my life. That ship. That's hard for me. It's
Speaker 1: hard for other actresses as well. It ain't just me,
Speaker 1: but I'm letting y'all know because it's my ship. It's
Speaker 1: harders ship being told no, no, no, no, it is
Speaker 1: to that that is to that. You know, you take
Speaker 1: acting classes and then you try to you know it.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying it. It ain't about real
Speaker 1: fucking talent anymore. It's not about that. It's about who
Speaker 1: you know and who can't give you a chance because
Speaker 1: you're gonna make their ratings go high. And then sometimes
Speaker 1: it ain't even about that. It's about, oh, this motherfucker's
Speaker 1: hotter than this motherfucker' so let me put this motherfucker
Speaker 1: on first, even though I promise this bit of show,
Speaker 1: let me put her to the side and get this
Speaker 1: motherfucker because he he got platinum records. What the fuck
Speaker 1: this think? I don't even act, it's a rapper. What
Speaker 1: the fun is going on here? It's certain ship that
Speaker 1: I need y'all to read in between lines for. So
Speaker 1: that's why I am creating my own ship, because ain't
Speaker 1: nobody gonna take you serious until you get it serious
Speaker 1: about your damn self. You feel me, You have to
Speaker 1: invest like that, just for the mess, just for the
Speaker 1: me's supposed to have been on TV. It's so many
Speaker 1: motherfucking celebrities and networks that reached out and oh I
Speaker 1: got you. Yeah, we're gonna okay, so we want to
Speaker 1: turn this into this, turn this too it now. I
Speaker 1: wanted to stay the same. No, I wanted to stay
Speaker 1: the same. And if you don't like it, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: take it elsewhere because I know how big it can be.
Speaker 1: I know the potential behind just with the mess. It
Speaker 1: could be a sketch show, it could be a talk show,
Speaker 1: it could be a whole lot of things. But it's
Speaker 1: gonna be what I wanted to be, not what y'all
Speaker 1: wanted to be. You know what I'm saying in terms
Speaker 1: of network, you know, in terms of celebrities, who who's
Speaker 1: offered deals for this ship? You feel me they're not
Speaker 1: gonna water it down and make it what the funk
Speaker 1: they want to make it. That's just not what I'm
Speaker 1: not having it. That's just what that is. I cannot
Speaker 1: do that. That's my precious work. I created that ship.
Speaker 1: That's how most of y'all know me by that. I
Speaker 1: would never sell it so cheap. I would never let
Speaker 1: nobody water it down. It ain't the same. So I
Speaker 1: put money into an actual production, putting a production behind it.
Speaker 1: It was cool. It didn't do the numbers that I
Speaker 1: expected it for it to be because y'all like your real, real,
Speaker 1: short and intimate. I try to do something different. I'm
Speaker 1: trying new ways to reinvent myself. When I showed that
Speaker 1: I put actual money into it, that it was on
Speaker 1: an actual set, it was shot with actual production cameras
Speaker 1: and all that ship, that's when I started getting the calls,
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, we we want to put this
Speaker 1: on and yeah we're trying to the yeah we wanna. Yeah,
Speaker 1: So listen, that's great and all, but I'm letting y'all
Speaker 1: know that that's what I mean by investing in yourself,
Speaker 1: showing motherfucker's that you're serious. That's why you gotta work
Speaker 1: extra fucking hard because social media has watered everybody down.
Speaker 1: Social media is the reason that people don't take you serious.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. Whether it's a network, a
Speaker 1: big celebrity, your fans, whatever, your family, whatever, that is
Speaker 1: what it has done to the industry, watering shipped down.
Speaker 1: Because when the last time nigga's don't watched the movies,
Speaker 1: When the last time you have got caught up on
Speaker 1: your favorite show, When is the last time you didn't
Speaker 1: flick through some channels? Not because all you one as
Speaker 1: being on your phone. When's the last time you watched
Speaker 1: the whole episode of anything? A whole episode of the
Speaker 1: reality shows? Why do I need to do that? If? If,
Speaker 1: if I'm if I follow a blog that post clip
Speaker 1: after clip after clip, might as gonna say I watched
Speaker 1: the whole goddamn show, And if you read through enough comments,
Speaker 1: you watch the goddamn show. So I'm not waiting for
Speaker 1: anybody to put me on TV anymore. I've come to
Speaker 1: that conclusion. You have to create, and you have to
Speaker 1: put money into it, and you gotta shoot your own
Speaker 1: ship and just be able to take it. You gotta
Speaker 1: bake the cake. You can't just have the ingredients waiting
Speaker 1: for somebody to help you to bake it. You gotta
Speaker 1: get the ingredients, mix it up, bake it, prepare it,
Speaker 1: put the ice and on it, put it in a container,
Speaker 1: and then take it to a motherfucker and if they
Speaker 1: buy it, that's what it is. Because everybody after the
Speaker 1: same ship, and everybody will fill your head up. Yo.
Speaker 1: They will make you think that you the best. They
Speaker 1: will make you think that you got something to they
Speaker 1: and your poise, and they will make you think, oh yeah,
Speaker 1: you got this. We're gonna give you this way, and
Speaker 1: then they don't, And that's a slap in the is
Speaker 1: that ship on my back, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: So you gotta create, You gotta create. I don't want
Speaker 1: y'all to think that I'm mad, I'm bitter. No, I'm not.
Speaker 1: I'm passionate about the ship that I create. I'm passionate
Speaker 1: about my fucking work, about my business as everybody else
Speaker 1: should be. You understand what I'm saying. That's what I'm
Speaker 1: passionate about. And it's gonna remain that way. It's gonna
Speaker 1: remain that fucking way when I go up and I
Speaker 1: accept these awards for these movies and these TV shows
Speaker 1: that are soon to be mine, all mine, all mine.
Speaker 1: Y'all gonna remember why I vented today. You know, I
Speaker 1: want y'all to remember that, not that I just want
Speaker 1: to be the only one doing something fun. No, there
Speaker 1: ain't never been the case. And on that note, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna end this episode. I want you all to know
Speaker 1: I love y'all just like y'all love me, And keep

Speaker 1: in me. Could trust me. I'm gonna show y'all it
Speaker 1: was worth believing in me, And on that note, got
Speaker 1: your ass. Nick could shut the fuck up. I've been
Speaker 1: I'm hit on my cash so you bought my hustle.
