Speaker 3: at the concerts.
Speaker 1: And uh it did you know early on that you
Speaker 1: wanted to be in music?
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's something I always was drawn to,
Speaker 3: you know, even as it even as you know, as
Speaker 3: a kid young, you know what I mean. I mean,
Speaker 3: I think I remember seeing like was it Motown twenty five?
Speaker 3: You know, the Grammy Awards. I think I think right

Speaker 3: I would and then and then I you know, spending
Speaker 3: time with my dad, uh you know, in his background,
Speaker 3: uh classically you know, and going through his collection and
Speaker 3: stuff like that.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 3: I discovered Prince at a young age. You know, the
Speaker 3: Purple Wing album. I totally probably shouldn't have been listening
Speaker 3: to that, to that album at that age, but uh,
Speaker 3: I was just fascinated and blown away, you know by Prince.
Speaker 1: Did your parents know you could sing yet? Or did
Speaker 1: they were they? Did they have an idea? No?
Speaker 3: I kind of really just like kept that to myself.
Speaker 3: I think singing. I was a late bloomer, like, you know,
Speaker 3: pursuing the singing, singing thing, you know, first year of
Speaker 3: college going to Copper State College. I graduated from High
Speaker 3: Point and uh Peg County and you know, going to
Speaker 3: Confidence where I really kind of like literally like found myself.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 1: So before then, they didn't hear a like they didn't
Speaker 1: have any idea that. Like they sent you off to
Speaker 1: college and like it's gonna go get a college degree.
Speaker 1: Did you tell them what you were going to college for.
Speaker 3: I originally went to college, I was I was red shirted,
Speaker 3: but I had I had a track scholarship. Yeah uh,
Speaker 3: you know, as a distance runner, and and.
Speaker 2: I thought I wanted to be in law enforcement.
Speaker 3: And I went for three semesters I felt, you know,
Speaker 3: I joined the singing group. I fell in love with
Speaker 3: the art of like singing. And next thing, you know,
Speaker 3: you know, I dropped out and here we are.
Speaker 1: And before you now in that transition, you because I
Speaker 1: read online, you know, you had kind of john harmonize
Speaker 1: with this group on campus, and that was kind of
Speaker 1: like the beginning is that cract? And then but at
Speaker 1: what point do you go home and you say, hey, mom, dad,
Speaker 1: this is the this is the the road change I'm making.
Speaker 3: Well, it wasn't going back home at that point. I'm
Speaker 3: an adult, you know, I kind of had kind of
Speaker 3: figured it out. I slept on a few couches here
Speaker 3: and then you know, I had some great friends who
Speaker 3: you know, who definitely helped along the way in that process.
Speaker 3: But I had to figure it out, you know. You know,
Speaker 3: at some point I became a dad. You know, I'm
Speaker 3: gonna try.
Speaker 1: Well, we're cooking for two cool? I want you to
Speaker 1: eat with me?
Speaker 2: I kind of.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I like to do it kind of like you know,
Speaker 3: and appetizers or oh is this you can kind of
Speaker 3: eat it?
Speaker 2: You know what I mean?
Speaker 1: Sports team shout outs to them, We're gonna eat it
Speaker 1: a school from now. You don't watch y'all back here?
Speaker 1: So I could try this, Yeah, absolutely, I'm gonna try it.
Speaker 1: So before I try, I gotta ask you the road
Speaker 1: of couch surfing. Was there any part of you that
Speaker 1: was questioning whether this was your purpose?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 3: I mean I think I think definitely. Through life we
Speaker 3: question what our purpose is. You know some people, some
Speaker 3: people go to go through their entire life, uh, you know,
Speaker 3: trying to figure out their their purpose. You know, some
Speaker 3: people find it criocket than others. You know, how was
Speaker 3: I think I went? I went through the process of
Speaker 3: from from from from knowing to believing or from believing
Speaker 3: in knowing.
Speaker 2: Excuse me?
Speaker 1: Oh man?
Speaker 3: So, so you know that there's a process of like
Speaker 3: believing that you can do something, and then there's something
Speaker 3: like you know, absolutely knowing that hey, this is what
Speaker 3: I want to do. I'm going to figure out how
Speaker 3: to do it, you know, and uh, I think once
Speaker 3: I mastered the art of like knowing and manifestation understanding
Speaker 3: you know, the power of prayer. And when what was.
Speaker 1: That epiphany of knowing? Like when did you know? You knew?
Speaker 3: For me, it was like doing the open mics and
Speaker 3: just seeing how people responded, okay, yeah to the you know,
Speaker 3: to the music responded to me. You know, I always
Speaker 3: was an artist that uh, I always had to have,
Speaker 3: you know, even in my early career. You know, I
Speaker 3: had I had product, I had CDs, I had, you know,
Speaker 3: something that was tangible that people could you know, take
Speaker 3: me home.
Speaker 2: With them verse a. You know what I mean.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 3: And once I once I saw that or you know,
Speaker 3: or a perform a song and I would see how
Speaker 3: people would respond to it or ask me how could
Speaker 3: they buy the song?
Speaker 2: Then I knew I was on the something.
Speaker 1: Now. Typically during that whole process, I would assume you
Speaker 1: weren't were you were? You were still struggling financially. So
Speaker 1: was there anybody around you that's like whoa you know,
Speaker 1: is the is the math math making sense? Are you
Speaker 1: still doing side hustles to No?
Speaker 3: Definitely, definitely still working, uh day job, shy hustle stuff
Speaker 3: you know jobs jobs that I have. Oh man, I
Speaker 3: worked at UH, Like I said, giant food.
Speaker 2: I worked at.
Speaker 1: UH after college, after having baby and still pursuing music.

Speaker 1: you got your first like publishing or writing.
Speaker 3: So so so initially I was signed to a label.
Speaker 3: H We're not signed to a label, excuse me. Initially,
Speaker 3: I want to I won a contest, uh and at

Speaker 3: used that money to get a CD burner and kind
Speaker 3: of like start burning my own music, selling out of
Speaker 3: the trunk another local artist and.
Speaker 1: I'll bring you recording the music to burn it.
Speaker 3: Well, another local artist and producer from the area. We
Speaker 3: we teamed up and mobbed up and ended up getting
Speaker 3: apartment together, and uh we formed a group called Urban
Speaker 3: AF thirty one, which we went on to, uh, you know,
Speaker 3: make a lot of great music. I need my cooking

Speaker 3: out a project called The Healing. Uh. You know, I
Speaker 3: also teamed up with a phenomenal artist from DC.
Speaker 2: It's kind of thank you, thank.
Speaker 3: You, phenomenal artists from DC by the name of West Felton.
Speaker 2: We formed a group called The Crossroads. So I always been.
Speaker 3: Part of these like you know groups, and just even
Speaker 3: in the early stages of my career, I understood what
Speaker 3: it was to like reinvent myself as an artist, you
Speaker 3: know what I mean, and and that and that there's
Speaker 3: you know a lot of different genres of music that
Speaker 3: that that that that you know, that I liked and
Speaker 3: I wanted to participate in and you know that whole thing.
Speaker 2: So it's kind of like, you know.
Speaker 3: Figuring out how to do that being an independent artist
Speaker 3: at the same time, you know, through the process of it,
Speaker 3: and eventually, you know, what ended up happening was what
Speaker 3: had happened was that you know, uh, I met some
Speaker 3: producers from the area locally who were like super dope
Speaker 3: and their managers and people that they did business with,
Speaker 3: uh managed Genuine at the time, and uh you know,
Speaker 3: I asked, I asked the dre Vons and Cliff Jones
Speaker 3: at the time to manage me, which they which they
Speaker 3: agreed to do, and you know, I just kind of
Speaker 3: expressed them that I just wanted to kind of just
Speaker 3: like do music full time, you know, and if there
Speaker 3: was any opportunities to like you know, sing background for
Speaker 3: any artist, you know, genuine whomever did I'd be interested
Speaker 3: in doing it, and you know, I ended up getting
Speaker 3: a call for the gig and touring with him still
Speaker 3: while all while pursuing, you know, my career being part
Speaker 3: of these different groups stuff as well.
Speaker 1: And but at this point you're no back and there's
Speaker 1: no us. You don't have a day.
Speaker 3: Job, right, Nah, at this point there's no jay job.
Speaker 3: So yeah, so you know, now you got past that hurdle.
Speaker 3: Yeah so now so now so now it's like monetizing,
Speaker 3: you know, in real time, you know.
Speaker 1: So how long would you say that journey was that spam?
Speaker 3: Oh man, you're talking anywhere between two thousand and you're
Speaker 3: saying from like two thousand and.
Speaker 2: Two too, like two thousand and two, I did the deal.
Speaker 3: So you're talking, you're talking about this is right between
Speaker 3: like nineteen ninety nine, say, or ninety eight through like
Speaker 3: two thousand, like two thousand and one, you know where
Speaker 3: you know, you know, just figuring it out, yeah, you know,
Speaker 3: figuring it out and during that recording, what recording at
Speaker 3: the time what would become the love experience, not knowing
Speaker 3: at the time that that's what it would be, you know,
Speaker 3: and just never putting all my all my options in
Speaker 3: one you know, one basket, you know what I mean,
Speaker 3: I think, you know, allowed me to be able to
Speaker 3: do I could just be part of different things, you know,
Speaker 3: I in this group I'm doing my solo thing is
Speaker 3: Rahiem Devon, like you know, the option to that, you know,
Speaker 3: you never know what's going to kind of take off,
Speaker 3: you know, so you know, I was just just having
Speaker 3: fun doing it the entire time, you know, because I
Speaker 3: believe that anything, you know, what we do, it should
Speaker 3: definitely be fun.
Speaker 2: Right and.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, the interest, the buzz started to really
Speaker 3: start happening, you know, around two thousand and one, golding
Speaker 3: over into two, I started to go to a lot
Speaker 3: of artist showcases, RCA Records, whoever would have me. Like,
Speaker 3: we went, we got a lot of we got it,
Speaker 3: We got a lot of no's until we finally got it.
Speaker 1: Yes, okay, you know how did you handle those no's?
Speaker 3: I mean we just never gave up, you know, you
Speaker 3: know I just kind of always like looked at it like, hey,
Speaker 3: if it's not going to happen here, then hey stay lost,
Speaker 3: stay what it's their loss.
Speaker 1: It's their loss. Yeah of course, yeah, yeah, you know
Speaker 1: were there's some lessons in there that you had to
Speaker 1: learn about the industry.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I just, I just I just I never gave up,
Speaker 3: you know what I mean. I wouldn't say it was
Speaker 3: it was that anything was like painful, like you know,
Speaker 3: I you know, even then I understood that it was like,
Speaker 3: you know, timing involved like I like, you know, I was,
Speaker 3: I still was popping, you know what I mean. Yeah,
Speaker 3: So you know we were doing at that point, We're
Speaker 3: doing college gigs with the you know, with Urban after
Speaker 3: thirty one, and you know, I'm I'm I'm when I'm
Speaker 3: not out on the road doing my independent stuff, I'm
Speaker 3: on the road with g vir Ginuine.
Speaker 1: So it's you know, you're still moving in that forward motion.
Speaker 3: It seems oh no, for sure.
Speaker 1: And it sounds like you kept busy.
Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely absolutely, That's that's the name of the gang.
Speaker 2: Like even like now, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: Like, yeah, you gotta stay busy and work and nobody's
Speaker 3: gonna give you that.
Speaker 2: You gotta work for it. You got ground for it,
Speaker 2: you know, and you gotta.
Speaker 1: Eat and you gotta eat to ask because this part
Speaker 1: of the show, I have to say, have me the
Speaker 1: most interested is the mushrooms. I know, this is a
Speaker 1: sidebar for everyone. But I've never really cooked mushrooms like this,
Speaker 1: so I'm just curious.
Speaker 3: You we got so we got a little cornmeal, right,
Speaker 3: and I saw you season it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we got the mushrooms popping. But the oyster, the
Speaker 2: oyster mushrooms.
Speaker 3: I use a little jets egg, okay, right, just to
Speaker 3: get it, just to get it popping.
Speaker 1: And then you let us sit in there, right, yeah,
Speaker 1: let it.
Speaker 3: Sit in there, marinate a little bit, season it a
Speaker 3: little bit, and then we got the flour happening.
Speaker 1: And yeah, I'm so excited. I've never seen it. So
Speaker 1: if you would have left here and you would have
Speaker 1: like not gotten to this part, I promise you I

Speaker 3: even as it gets a little cool.
Speaker 2: Mm hmm, there we go. That sound like.
Speaker 3: Yes, I've been waiting for that.
Speaker 1: I was waiting for it when you first put it in.
Speaker 1: I've seen someone on this show took water and did it,
Speaker 1: and I was scared.
Speaker 2: This is not the move.
Speaker 3: Yes, that's not the move.
Speaker 1: She made some really great onion rings.
Speaker 2: That's what's up.
Speaker 1: The kale is really good, So you just eat the
Speaker 1: mushrooms all by itself on the plate with the kale.
Speaker 2: Well do you yeah, I mean it's like kind of
Speaker 2: like a.
Speaker 3: Th This is like like a vegan chicken nugget, you know,
Speaker 3: finger fool you know, do you know.
Speaker 1: If there's any benefits to the mushroom.
Speaker 3: That's I think there's always beneficial to rushrooms.
Speaker 1: Oh okay, So where do you see yourself going from here?
Speaker 1: Like what's next on the milestones for you?
Speaker 2: You know, it's crazy.
Speaker 3: It's crazy because after nineteen years, I'm on a I'm

Speaker 2: I mean, it's it's it's it's God's a limit.
Speaker 3: Definitely what I definitely see myself doing more television and
Speaker 3: film and and things of that nature. But it's still
Speaker 3: so much of the world that I haven't seen touring
Speaker 3: as a recording artist, you know, and uh, and possibilities
Speaker 3: that are out there. Definitely get into some strategic partnerships.
Speaker 3: Shout out to Gilead Sciencest, who was phenomenal, uh, you know,
Speaker 3: you know for the Raheem Devon brand and their brand
Speaker 3: and all the wonderful work that they're doing in the community,

Speaker 2: You know what I mean, which is the name of
Speaker 2: the game.
Speaker 1: You know, I'm gonna be really judging the muscrooms really hard.
Speaker 1: By the way, I have another random question when it
Speaker 1: comes to the mushrooms. Earlier, I had said, when I
Speaker 1: was looking at the packs of mushrooms, one of them
Speaker 1: they look like really wet. Is that like a sign
Speaker 1: you shouldn't buy mushrooms if the package is look I
Speaker 1: looked at them.
Speaker 2: I think they were They're pretty good.
Speaker 3: Pick the one that was Oh yeah, I mean yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: I think if it's I think, if it's ever in question,
Speaker 3: if you ever have to ask, then yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: I was sitting there like, I don't know.
Speaker 3: I would definitely say, trust your impulse on that, you know.
Speaker 1: But the ones I got you.
Speaker 3: Did you did good.
Speaker 2: You did good, you did good.
Speaker 1: I love how you're really chefing it, you know. So
Speaker 1: who are you currently signed to?
Speaker 2: I'm currently signed to myself.
Speaker 1: That's what I want to talk about. So what was
Speaker 1: you You were signed the Jibe at one point.
Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, so Jibe was from two thousand and two,
Speaker 3: the first album came out of five and then by
Speaker 3: two thousand and eleven, you know, January first, twenty eleven when.
Speaker 2: I became independent again. So about fifteen fifteen years give
Speaker 2: a take that I've.
Speaker 1: Been indy, you know, And what would you say the
Speaker 1: pros and the cons of being indie.
Speaker 3: R Man, I mean, definitely you make more money long
Speaker 3: long term. I mean, I think the main thing is
Speaker 3: about the ownership of it, you know, and just being
Speaker 3: able to just kind of just just dictate your destiny.
Speaker 2: You can put out music when you want, you know.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's just something about having your own you know,
Speaker 3: you know, and being having ownership.
Speaker 2: It's so important.
Speaker 1: You know, on the first record, on that record that
Speaker 1: you put out with Jove, though, was your deal? Did
Speaker 1: you not get your own majority of it or what
Speaker 1: was that deal? Well?
Speaker 3: No, I mean, I'm I'm I'm a I'm a published
Speaker 3: writer and producer and all these things, you know what
Speaker 3: I mean. So it really, you know, being independent comes
Speaker 3: down to having ownership of the master like you know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so you know bucket lists.
Speaker 3: I want to I definitely want to go back and
Speaker 3: get the masters for the Love Experience album, Love Behind
Speaker 3: the Melody, and the Level More Masterpiece in particular. You know, uh,
Speaker 3: which were the three releases that I had with you
Speaker 3: you know, yeah.
Speaker 1: I know when we interviewed, I interviewed Bone Thugs and
Speaker 1: Harmony here and they rush still waiting. I think they
Speaker 1: had like another year before they can get their masks
Speaker 1: something like that, and it was really important to them, too.
Speaker 2: Very important thing. I got a baked potatoes your stove, so.

Speaker 3: So yeah, so to uh so to you know, to
Speaker 3: have time is always the challenge, you know. Uh yeah,
Speaker 3: so you know that's the challenge. Time is the challenge.
Speaker 1: So what's your cheap meal when you're this busy?
Speaker 3: Sorry? I mean this is like a go to like
Speaker 3: if you get it, if you get if you get like,
Speaker 3: you know, a hotel room, uh with the kitchen, you
Speaker 3: know what I mean. You don't have to have the
Speaker 3: gas stove. You know, you have a couple of ingredients
Speaker 3: and just do your thing, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: It's just like it's just like a is.
Speaker 1: There a reason why you choose them?
Speaker 3: Malayan salt.
Speaker 1: I feel like it's also a little saltier.
Speaker 3: No, I don't know.
Speaker 2: I mean it could be.
Speaker 3: It could be a little saltier, but it's definitely a
Speaker 3: lot healthier though, Okay, yeah, definitely a lot healthier.
Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely a lot healthier.
Speaker 1: But you're not vegan.
Speaker 3: I have been vegan most of my life. I have
Speaker 3: periods where you know, I do I'm currently like I
Speaker 3: guess I would say pro tarry, you know, and yeah
Speaker 3: in the sense of, uh you.
Speaker 1: Dip your pinky into the.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll do I'll do lamb and I'll do wild
Speaker 3: caught fish like evident that It just I just feel
Speaker 3: like it agrees with my digestive track. I mean, yeah,
Speaker 3: it just agrees with me, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: You know, me being a blood type that I am
Speaker 3: and just blood type absolutely.
Speaker 1: I want to get one of those done because I
Speaker 1: I a doctor told me I was alerted to red meat.
Speaker 1: So do you hear enough episodes of eating while broken?
Speaker 3: Hear me say yeah, I mean yeah, yeah, yeah. The
Speaker 3: thing that yeah, the thing is so it's just like,
Speaker 3: you know, it's good to know like what your you know,
Speaker 3: what what agrees with your body and what you know
Speaker 3: what serves your body best?
Speaker 2: You know what I mean?
Speaker 1: What made you get me?
Speaker 3: I feel I feel like you kind of like are
Speaker 3: indirectly slowly poisoning yourself by doing anything other than that? Yeah,
Speaker 3: you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: I agree with that.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So it also takes I think maturity because I was
Speaker 1: telling my friends I knew I was alerted to red
Speaker 1: meat at the age of twenty four, but I didn't
Speaker 1: stop till I was like thirty six. And why do
Speaker 1: you think Why do you think I was just immature?
Speaker 1: It's an immaturity.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Now, if I see oxtail or short rep, I'm like,
Speaker 1: no matter how much I love you, I'm not doing it.

Speaker 3: Man.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 3: I think the roots, the roots, you know, me working
Speaker 3: with the roots and just the way that whole Uh,
Speaker 3: that whole situation happened with rich uh Nicholas, who was
Speaker 3: kind of like the hidden member Slash. I guess you
Speaker 3: could say manager uh for the group, you know, being
Speaker 3: this being the studio with Raymond Angry and Black Thought
Speaker 3: working on these records one on one at the time,
Speaker 3: rich Rich kind of being very specific about what type
Speaker 3: of records he wanted me to make.
Speaker 2: There's a song on They're called.
Speaker 3: A Man with No Future Future and the irony, the
Speaker 3: irony of the song is that I didn't know at
Speaker 3: the time, and I don't I'm not sure how many
Speaker 3: people know at the time, but Rich was Rich was
Speaker 3: uh was was was was.
Speaker 2: Uh terminally ill.
Speaker 3: So he had me so so I remember having this
Speaker 3: conversation with him on the phone about creating this record
Speaker 3: about a man with no future, not knowing that I
Speaker 3: was making basically like the soundtrack of his life. Oh wow. Yeah.
Speaker 3: And I don't know if I don't I don't know
Speaker 3: if he ever shared that with Black Thought.
Speaker 2: But it just uh yeah.
Speaker 3: So it's kind of well, when when when the album
Speaker 3: when like literally he passed, like the week that the
Speaker 3: album dropped, or like I want to say, like right
Speaker 3: before the album dropped. Like maybe maybe maybe within that
Speaker 3: thirty day. I can't remember the timeline, but like and
Speaker 3: it was just like wow, like Rich pat and then
Speaker 3: and then it came out like, hey, Rich had been sick.
Speaker 2: I didn't.
Speaker 3: So then so then I started going back to the
Speaker 3: conversations that we had that we had been having about
Speaker 3: the music and how specific he was he you know,
Speaker 3: when he told me the concept of what he wanted
Speaker 3: and what, you know, what what the production was saying
Speaker 3: to him. And then I say and then I'm like, yo, wow,
Speaker 3: this was about him.
Speaker 2: How's your How's I.
Speaker 1: Want to try it? I'm gonna try it right now, guys,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna try it without seasoning.
Speaker 2: I'm going there. Really, you're going there.
Speaker 3: We shouse chicken, Rob it's schuey.
Speaker 2: It was not dry like chicken tender tender.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's tender. Well, it's chewy, a little bit.
Speaker 2: Chew.
Speaker 1: I wasn't too sure if I could like actually successfully
Speaker 1: bite it, so I shoved the whole thing in. Guys.
Speaker 1: Which one was the cheriochy? This one? This one?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that that's.
Speaker 1: Yeah old I tried. I feel like this would go
Speaker 1: really good with.
Speaker 3: Ranch by the way, guys, Yeah, a ranch would do
Speaker 3: me and myself, I'd have to do like a vegan ranch.
Speaker 1: I think that's barbecue. You tried this one?
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's that's barbecue. And that's yeah.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna eat all of these, guys. I don't know
Speaker 1: if I'm hungry or if I just like it.
Speaker 3: I think I think I like it.
Speaker 2: I think I might be onto something.
Speaker 1: Guys, something gonna come in to my house and be like,
Speaker 1: what are you making? I'm making?
Speaker 2: It's banging with the barbecue. Barbecue, that's it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, barbecue is quite better, but the barbecue gives it
Speaker 3: the pop.
Speaker 1: Is there a reason why you chose to cornmeal? Holding?
Speaker 1: I'm gonna eat all of these? Did you? Did you
Speaker 1: have more? But did I? There's more. I don't want
Speaker 1: to be that person that like eats all the food
Speaker 1: and the guy looks up and he's like, wait, did
Speaker 1: you eat it all? That happened to me one time.
Speaker 1: It was really embarrassed, really embarrassed.
Speaker 3: That's really good. Where's my sous where's my shoe chef?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: I need I need the sour cream and the sour
Speaker 3: cream and cheese out of the out of the fridge.
Speaker 1: Yep, And uh does your team know that you're passionate about.
Speaker 2: Personal Okay, what do you think? I'm here, but.
Speaker 1: I'm saying because I think Tony's gonna murder us. No,
Speaker 1: you gotta be a You're.
Speaker 2: Not gonna even speak that into assistance.
Speaker 3: I feel the pressure.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna eat all of Is there a reason why
Speaker 1: you chose the corn meal holding?
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean no, no, no, no, no no no, no, no
Speaker 3: no no.
Speaker 1: It's like on the table. It's on the table. It
Speaker 1: looks like a little.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: And what we're gonna do because we're gonna have.
Speaker 1: To don't do this one.
Speaker 2: We're gonna have to.
Speaker 1: I just don't.
Speaker 2: Improvise a bit. Where's my knife? Where's my knife? Myna?
Speaker 1: Oh here?
Speaker 2: Sorry, yes, yeah, you can just sit it right here.
Speaker 1: I need to keep basking this. But is there a
Speaker 1: reason why you keep why you use the corn meal
Speaker 1: outing but the corn meal outside on the and versus
Speaker 1: any other bredding for the mushroom?
Speaker 2: I just like the texture. How do you like it?
Speaker 1: I like the texture? But I was just curious, like
Speaker 1: if it was a flavor thing or was a texture.
Speaker 2: A flavored texture?
Speaker 1: You know, I'm curious if you were to do this
Speaker 1: corn meal outing with a different bread.
Speaker 3: Now, if I'd have had more time, I probably would
Speaker 3: have did a I probably would have did a.
Speaker 2: A U.
Speaker 3: I probably would have fried it and then put it
Speaker 3: in the oven for a little bit too.
Speaker 2: Why just to give it a little more, For a little.
Speaker 1: More, I'm waiting for more. It's good though.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So the only reason why I'm saying that is either
Speaker 1: it's like I like the texture, but I feel like
Speaker 1: either mixing it with another breadcrumb or maybe maybe adding
Speaker 1: like garlic powder and onion powder or something maybe to it.
Speaker 3: Bro You know the thing is too it's in the
Speaker 3: keys in seasoning. You know you could seizon your flower.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: So again, you know, it's really about how much time
Speaker 3: you have. No Usually when you're eating broke, you're trying
Speaker 3: to get to somewhere to make some money.
Speaker 1: This is so good. This ain't eating this ain't this
Speaker 1: is this is I'm glad you did this because it's
Speaker 1: teaching all of us that we can eat healthy and
Speaker 1: on a budget, and that being you could also be
Speaker 1: vegan and.
Speaker 3: Also eat on a budget, absolutely.
Speaker 1: Which I never thought. I never knew. But I've been
Speaker 1: watching these new videos that people are like turning like
Speaker 1: lion mushroom. Have you ever seen a lion mushom?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, you do that. Yeah, absolutely, that was a
Speaker 3: potential actual d the DMV.
Speaker 1: Just come back every day and just show us a
Speaker 1: new vegan lesson. Okay, I mean.
Speaker 3: That that sounds good. It sounds like it's good to
Speaker 3: the pilot.
Speaker 1: It's amazing, Like I'm.
Speaker 3: Doing a good job here, ladies, gentlemen.
Speaker 1: What is some things that fans would be shocked to
Speaker 1: know about you side is the fact that you love
Speaker 1: to cook.
Speaker 3: Maybe I guess my love for you know, community and
Speaker 3: just the work that I you know, how passionate I
Speaker 3: am about the community work that I do. And then
Speaker 3: and then and then I guess just you know, just
Speaker 3: a passion too for the passion that I have for
Speaker 3: working with you know, uh well community. But it also
Speaker 3: just like the fans, like you know what I mean,
Speaker 3: the meet and greets and just the whole the way
Speaker 3: you know, that exchange it happenings live like something that is.
Speaker 2: Very important, you know, very very important to me.
Speaker 1: Was there anything that happened during your career or life
Speaker 1: that was like a major pivotal moment?
Speaker 3: Yeah, the loss of my dad you know, is going
Speaker 3: on two years and my dad passed and and I
Speaker 3: I can say that it's definitely been, uh been a
Speaker 3: pivot for me, you know, in the sense of, I'm
Speaker 3: gonna kind of do do you do you some thing
Speaker 3: because we're pressed for time and we are eating while
Speaker 3: we're broke. I'm gonna do like a dice. Uh you
Speaker 3: are really like, we're gonna do like you a dice.
Speaker 1: Potatoe.
Speaker 3: We're gonna call it a dice. Uh, it's not mashed
Speaker 3: a dice, baked potato.
Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
Speaker 1: Okay, this looks legit.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we call it a Mexican.
Speaker 1: I've never seen anybody do this. Yeah, let's see how
Speaker 1: that you're really showing off?
Speaker 2: How that? How that? How that? We'll see how that?
Speaker 1: How that?
Speaker 2: How that does you did? Let's see and uh, let's
Speaker 2: take that off there. So we're gonna burn things?
Speaker 1: Do you have to take those out and burn.
Speaker 2: The house down?
Speaker 1: Stay all right?
Speaker 2: I think we pretty much Tony's gonna be excited because
Speaker 2: we pretty much.
Speaker 1: To hear the rest of pretty much done here about
Speaker 1: your dad?
Speaker 3: Yeah, so so yeah, about that, it's basically where's my
Speaker 3: sour cream? So it's basically like you know, that's a
Speaker 3: when you lose you know, a parent, child, you know,
Speaker 3: a loved one, something.
Speaker 2: Of that magnitude.
Speaker 3: Will you know, it can break your spirit m like completely,
Speaker 3: Like you know, some people don't bounce back from from
Speaker 3: situations like that, you know what I mean, like mentally
Speaker 3: you know, just talk about depression and just like all
Speaker 3: the things right, so you know, but for me, it's
Speaker 3: definitely been part of my my pivot one one me
Speaker 3: knowing that you know, that energy is always.
Speaker 2: Around me.
Speaker 3: And just you know, just just just knowing that you know,
Speaker 3: the spirit lives forever. So I feel, I I f
Speaker 3: I I feel my dad and my loved one and
Speaker 3: my ancestors and you know and and all that I do.
Speaker 1: Do you feel like your dad was very proud of you?
Speaker 3: And oh?
Speaker 2: Absolutely absolutely.
Speaker 3: I think the the tough the toughest part for me
Speaker 3: is probably having has been having to has been having
Speaker 3: to it's after the show. My dad was the type
Speaker 3: of person. Yeah, my dad would be the person that
Speaker 3: would like call me, you know once the show was
Speaker 3: once the show was done, like you know what I mean, Like, hey,
Speaker 3: I was to show the night type vibes you.
Speaker 1: I like the way it looks. But I know what
Speaker 1: that tastes like, right, that's yeah, but they're not. Yeah,
Speaker 1: let's do the thin one that's farthest from the seed.
Speaker 3: Let's do this. I break you, I break you down
Speaker 3: one into like just for the presentation.
Speaker 1: I love how passionate you are about this. What would
Speaker 1: you say your secret ingredient would be to life? Like,
Speaker 1: if you had to say one secret ingredient to life,
Speaker 1: what would you say it is? Am I allowed to
Speaker 1: try this?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the dude, he govin. Yeah, I would say
Speaker 3: it's my secret ingredient to life. Uh is No, it's
Speaker 3: it's it's you know, it's the I think. I think
Speaker 3: it's the art of hustling, you know what I mean,
Speaker 3: like like just you know, it's the art of hustling.
Speaker 3: Understand that you're gonna go out and you gotta get
Speaker 3: out and go go get it. And you know part
Speaker 3: part part of the art of hustling is like it's uh,
Speaker 3: it's it's not only manifestation, but it's about at the
Speaker 3: end of the day, you know, it's about ownership, you know.
Speaker 3: And uh, for me, you know, my one of the
Speaker 3: greatest intellectual properties is my is my music, you know,
Speaker 3: so for the so for example, the deal that I
Speaker 3: have with even Diabez and how I'm usializing that new
Speaker 3: platform that's out there for great artists or any any
Speaker 3: artists out there. If you're independent artists, you want to
Speaker 3: make eighty percent of the revenue. You want to go
Speaker 3: from zero point zero three percent streaming wise and have
Speaker 3: exclusiveivity to where to where you can bring your fanship
Speaker 3: to one place and and and and and see your
Speaker 3: and see your streams go from you know, get paid
Speaker 3: off of your streams, you know, a fraction of a
Speaker 3: penny versus versus two dollars. I think the two dollars
Speaker 3: or a dollar twenty five sounds.
Speaker 2: Good than me on what platform?
Speaker 3: And that's even dot biz e V E N dot
Speaker 3: biz b I Z. And you know, I released the
Speaker 3: Winner of Love project there first, uh, which is which
Speaker 3: is still doing extremely well. And now you know, I'm
Speaker 3: doing side artists deals with with with phenomenal artists like
Speaker 3: the poet Rob Brown who just dropped her project. There's
Speaker 3: no place like knowing, you know side.
Speaker 1: What does that mean?
Speaker 3: So that's like Raheem Devon presents. Okay, yeah, yeah, So
Speaker 3: so you know presenting other artists and using my platform
Speaker 3: to you know, uh, to to to to expose my
Speaker 3: fans and music lovers to to new art, you know,
Speaker 3: new new poetry, you know, phenomenal poets, musicians, you know.
Speaker 1: You know see this, They're gonna ask, well, how do
Speaker 1: we get our music in front of you so we
Speaker 1: can get on that radar?
Speaker 3: Oh It's so easy. I mean, I'm not I'm not
Speaker 3: hard to find. I would say definitely start with the
Speaker 3: Graham Instagram, Rahiem underscored devon uh official website, Raheem Devon
Speaker 3: Online doc Global. You know, I'm you know, sliding the dms.
Speaker 1: Some of those dms have blockers? Does your How do
Speaker 1: you know if yours does or doesn't?
Speaker 3: Well, I mean one only have one page artist page,
Speaker 3: and and and those and if you know, you know,
Speaker 3: I'm very very engaging, you know.
Speaker 2: On the platform.
Speaker 3: So yeah, it's you know, how at me, you know
Speaker 3: what I mean, part of part of, part of, part
Speaker 3: of being an independent artist. And I think a successful
Speaker 3: independent artist is it's uh, it's it's it's it's about
Speaker 3: being accessible to the fans. How how do you like
Speaker 3: your I just want to say, nice baked potato.
Speaker 1: This is the most inappropriate question I will ever ask
Speaker 1: a guest.
Speaker 3: But are you?
Speaker 1: Are you single? And the only reason why I'm saying
Speaker 1: this is, ladies, I'm dating it, Ladies. I gotta say this. Okay,
Speaker 1: I have to say this. This man cooks for you.
Speaker 1: It's the end.
Speaker 3: Why is it?
Speaker 1: What's sweetness? Is it the potato that has this a
Speaker 1: sweet kick to it?
Speaker 2: You got a little sweet kick.
Speaker 3: It's probably the sour.
Speaker 2: It's the vegans sour queer.
Speaker 1: Well, Jared, you're back there. I promise you this is
Speaker 1: the best potato you'll ever have in your life. I

Speaker 1: best potato I've ever had in my life. And I
Speaker 1: am stealing this recipe for life.
Speaker 2: Guys.
Speaker 1: It's vegan sour cream.
Speaker 3: I be I'll be honest with you, peppers, I'll be
Speaker 3: honest with you. I pulled an audible because I know
Speaker 3: that we you know, we got time constraints, so I
Speaker 3: had to be you know, I had to pull audible.
Speaker 3: What an audible? I had to pull an audible. I
Speaker 3: had to had to pull up. I had to call
Speaker 3: a play.
Speaker 1: This is the best play of my life.
Speaker 3: Your your your your stove. The electric stove in the
Speaker 3: other room was not being.
Speaker 1: So I had to how long did you bake those
Speaker 1: potatoes for?
Speaker 3: I did the best I could what I had over there,
Speaker 3: and it just stove over there.
Speaker 1: All I know own is that I texted. I told
Speaker 1: him this. I texted the booker while I was driving.
Speaker 1: I was like, I can't believe we forgot some ingredients.
Speaker 1: I'm personally driving to get him, and I texted her
Speaker 1: I said, whoever is dating this man is eating good.
Speaker 1: And then I tried the potato and this is amazing.
Speaker 1: This was amazing because I would have never thought to
Speaker 1: mix cheese with the peppers the way you did. You
Speaker 1: may have to release a cookbook. There's something to go
Speaker 1: out with the albums. You think I'm playing. Is it
Speaker 1: not delicious?

Speaker 2: That's where you get to kick the sweet kick.
Speaker 1: Where in the when you were doing the onion.
Speaker 3: When I marinated the vegetables. So this is a good
Speaker 3: like marinate. It's like kind of like my go to
Speaker 3: so I married, I marinated the vestments and then we
Speaker 3: topped it with, you know, with the topics.
Speaker 1: The bigger I was thinking it was could have it
Speaker 1: could have been that you chose red potatoes.
Speaker 3: Mm hmm.
Speaker 2: That's what it did.
Speaker 1: That's what it is. It is bomb right, that was
Speaker 1: the keys.
