Speaker 1: to all the thirst traps to be posting on the Gram.

Speaker 1: for fashion Week. Yeah, I was. I was, But that's

9
00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:35,519
Speaker 1: not necessarily like thirst trapping. That's more just like hosting.

10
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:38,640
Speaker 1: She like leg when I posted a thirst trapping could

11
00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:41,479
Speaker 1: be in a sweatsuit. Well, thank you, la. Are you

12
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:45,040

13
00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:47,080
Speaker 1: working all the time. Just like, yeah, I'm tired. It's

14
00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:50,040
Speaker 1: like I thought when I wrapped Being Me, which we

15
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:52,559
Speaker 1: wrapped that in like July, I was like, all right,

16
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:54,560
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give myself a little bit of time. But

17
00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:56,840
Speaker 1: it just never really works out like that, which is

18
00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:59,800
Speaker 1: a blessing. But it's like so many other things going on.

19
00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 1: But I like to stay active, and you're a series regular,

20
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:07,039
Speaker 1: series regular. So season two is going to premiere in January.

21
00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:10,840
Speaker 1: The documentary just came out the BMF documentary, and that's

22
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:13,160
Speaker 1: kind of just getting people prepared for season two, which

23
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:16,520
Speaker 1: will come out in January. Were you in Atlanta when

24
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:18,960
Speaker 1: BMF was tearing the city up? Was you? I was?

25
00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:21,480
Speaker 1: I was there, like in and out, So I remember

26
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:24,160
Speaker 1: some of it. I remember like I was, you know,

27
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,000
Speaker 1: younger at the time, but I do remember sneaking into

28
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,080
Speaker 1: a couple of parties and being like, what's going on

29
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:32,080
Speaker 1: in here? Like this is crazy? And yeah, I remember

30
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:34,760
Speaker 1: some of it, But now I'm really in tune because

31
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 1: I did so much. I knew about them obviously, but

32
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:39,800
Speaker 1: so much research about Meech and Terry and just the

33
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:42,880
Speaker 1: whole movement, especially being a part of bm because on

34
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:47,119
Speaker 1: season two, I play a character named Markisha. Now, Markisha

35
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:50,800
Speaker 1: is Terry's girlfriend who's kind of the one who really

36
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:53,840
Speaker 1: introduces him to how to do the game correctly and

37
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:56,640
Speaker 1: kind of introduces him to becoming a man because he

38
00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:59,640
Speaker 1: was They were really young, he was like late teens,

39
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 1: and she's like an older girlfriend that's like, no, if

40
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:04,600
Speaker 1: you want to step up, this is what you need

41
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 1: to do and everything in life, appearance, sex and this

42
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 1: and that. So she's just like elevating Terry's game, and

43
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 1: it's crazy because they stayed together pretty much the whole

44
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 1: way through and got back together when Terry came out

45
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 1: of jail. So it's a woman that steps it up

46
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:22,440
Speaker 1: and upgrades him, isn't it You are right now that

47
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:36,880
Speaker 1: some more sexy wow coming back bringing that hashtag back.

48
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:42,239
Speaker 1: It's definitely more sexy. New person though, because Terry's played

49
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:45,520
Speaker 1: by Da Vinci, so new person on the other side

50
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,680
Speaker 1: of mid Yeah, does that ever get uncomfortable and awkward?

51
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 1: It's always when is it not? You was homing? Y'all

52
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 1: go out? Sometimes it's never not uncomfortable, Like at the

53
00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 1: end of the day. Even on a close set, it's

54
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,080
Speaker 1: still a close set could still be like five to

55
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 1: ten people. So when people say, oh, close set, it's

56
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:05,760
Speaker 1: not just me and him. You still got the camera,

57
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:09,520
Speaker 1: the sound producer, director or whatever, so it's still people

58
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 1: in there. Yeah, it's it's awkward in sex scenes and

59
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 1: never how people see them on TV, Like on TV

60
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 1: is flowing You're like, oh, they really doing something. When

61
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,919
Speaker 1: you're doing that, it's like cut, stand here, do this,

62
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,679
Speaker 1: put your leg here, arm here, Like, it's not how

63
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:27,520
Speaker 1: people it's not. Yeah, it's not just like action and

64
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 1: y'all go ahead. I think I literally have full blown

65
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 1: debates and arguments with people who are telling me like, no,

66
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:38,080
Speaker 1: y'all really having sex. I'm like, you're telling me like,

67
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 1: like no, not, that's real. That's real. Then somebody told

68
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:41,760
Speaker 1: me the other day they was like, but I mean

69
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:43,880
Speaker 1: you could tell them, right if like you really wanted

70
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 1: to do it for real? Though, right, I was like,

71
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,880
Speaker 1: why would you want to do it? Why would you? Like? What?

72
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 1: But people, really you're doing I think that, by the way,

73
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:58,640
Speaker 1: that's just I'm saying. So that's a portal if exactly,

74
00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 1: Like I'm like, what hr would be? Like, what is

75
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 1: going on in you just say thank you? That means

76
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,880
Speaker 1: I'm a wonderful than it looks like that's still doing

77
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:09,840
Speaker 1: it the fact that you believe that thank you? How

78
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 1: do you prepare yourself for that? Like do you have

79
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 1: to talk to him like I'm about to kiss you? Like?

80
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 1: How does that? Yeah? You guys, Well, first of all,

81
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:18,159
Speaker 1: you have rehearsals before you have to rehearse it, but

82
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:20,919
Speaker 1: you rehearse it with you know, sweatsuit, your clothes on

83
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 1: and just make sure you're comfortable. And then you have

84
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:25,720
Speaker 1: a sidebar with the person like, all right, so how

85
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:27,159
Speaker 1: you want to do this? Like, I don't want to

86
00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:29,359
Speaker 1: make it uncomfortable for you, and vice versas, so let's

87
00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,880
Speaker 1: work through this together. It becomes more like a choreograph thing,

88
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,040
Speaker 1: almost like a dance kind of like okay, then put

89
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 1: your hand here, then move and this and a lot

90
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 1: of times what females don't know. If you're uncomfortable about something,

91
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:44,279
Speaker 1: it's great because your co star can help you, meaning

92
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:46,280
Speaker 1: like I don't like this part of my body? Can

93
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:48,200
Speaker 1: you just put your hand right there so that when

94
00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:50,919
Speaker 1: it camera comes, so you work together to try to

95
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:52,880
Speaker 1: make it look great. Isn't it easier being single than

96
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 1: having to do stuff like this too? So you don't

97
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 1: have to go home and be like so today on set?

98
00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 1: She knows you have to have those conversations. She knows

99
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:04,200
Speaker 1: not anymore. Am I having a conversation? Well, I mean,

100
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:06,400
Speaker 1: out of respect for the person I was with, I

101
00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 1: would talk like I'm not just gonna let him turn

102
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,599
Speaker 1: the TV on the scene. He says he never watched THEMBO.

103
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:13,840
Speaker 1: Who knows, you know, maybe maybe not, but if he's

104
00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 1: an acting now too, did you have any sex? Did

105
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:18,279
Speaker 1: you have sex? Scene? Okay, so let me ask you

106
00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:21,280
Speaker 1: a question, because you're a married man, would you do

107
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:27,279
Speaker 1: a sex scene? Oh you don't think my wife? Nah?

108
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:29,040
Speaker 1: Because him and his wife were so public, you know

109
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:32,360
Speaker 1: what I mean, like they do. Yeah, I wouldn't. I wouldn't.

110
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 1: I wouldn't believe. I mean we would. I would do it,

111
00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:35,760
Speaker 1: but she would be uncomfort she would be comfortable with it.

112
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:37,400
Speaker 1: She wouldn't be Comora. She would be and I think

113
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:39,039
Speaker 1: she would be. She wouldn't have Probably, Yeah, when they

114
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 1: do the Breakfast Club series and they have their sex scene,

115
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 1: they might have to do it. But you know what

116
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 1: the truth is, I met so many guys and this

117
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:49,919
Speaker 1: is real talk who have told me, like, Lie, I

118
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 1: couldn't be with somebody like you who has filmed sex

119
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:56,280
Speaker 1: scenes before, Like there are guys that are very uncomfortable

120
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 1: with that, Like my girl could never And I'm like,

121
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:00,479
Speaker 1: but this is my career, this is what I do

122
00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:02,480
Speaker 1: for a living. And when you're on a show and

123
00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:05,120
Speaker 1: you're in a relationship with somebody, at some point, you're

124
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:09,520
Speaker 1: normally gonna have to have sex with the person. I

125
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:12,240
Speaker 1: just couldn't watch. I couldn't watch that scene. Like a

126
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:14,080
Speaker 1: couple of my eyes when when it comes on because

127
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 1: I don't want to see your girl or your wife,

128
00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:19,000
Speaker 1: and even though you know it's just straight acting and

129
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:22,160
Speaker 1: none of it is like, yes, he's still touching your body,

130
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:24,680
Speaker 1: still grabbing your ass, and if it's to see where

131
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:26,279
Speaker 1: she has to be like, my man never did it

132
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,919
Speaker 1: like this. I don't believe me care as much as

133
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:30,760
Speaker 1: they say. And I'm saying it's respectfully because I noticed

134
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:34,279
Speaker 1: your friend. But Kim's been married four times. You got

135
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 1: a sex tape, you know what I mean. I don't

136
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:37,560
Speaker 1: think guys care as much as this they say they do,

137
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,440
Speaker 1: but when it comes down to it, they'll, you know,

138
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:42,960
Speaker 1: they'll be fine. Okay, wow, all right, all right. And

139
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:45,520
Speaker 1: you also have this Intel, your Brown docu series, right, yeah,

140
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 1: so we're working on that fifty and I are producing that,

141
00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:51,320
Speaker 1: which I'm so excited about. Um. You know, the thing

142
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:55,200
Speaker 1: about producing too, though, is there's so many layers and

143
00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:56,880
Speaker 1: it takes a while. Like we've been wanting to get

144
00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:58,520
Speaker 1: this going for a while, and it's it's it is

145
00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:01,080
Speaker 1: happening really soon, and I'm excited about it. But it's

146
00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:02,600
Speaker 1: not like you know, when I reached out to her

147
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:04,360
Speaker 1: and I got the life rights, you know, in my mind.

148
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:06,520
Speaker 1: It's like I got him, We're just gonna go. But

149
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 1: it's so much in writing the scripts and getting prepared

150
00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 1: and when you're doing something like that, it's got to

151
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:15,000
Speaker 1: be done right. And she's executive producing it with us,

152
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:17,160
Speaker 1: so we just want to make sure we get it right.

153
00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:19,520

00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:35,480
Speaker 1: with me, and it was funny because I was like, well,

160
00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:39,120
Speaker 1: start thinking of producing partners, like we have this one,

161
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:41,160
Speaker 1: that one, that one, like who would you like to

Speaker 1: work with? And her and her husband call me. It

163
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:45,480
Speaker 1: was like, there's no other person we want to do

164
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:47,840
Speaker 1: this with except fifty Cents. And I was like that

165
00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:49,840
Speaker 1: was music to my ears because that makes my life

166
00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 1: a lot easier, Like that's the easiest thing in the

167
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:55,160
Speaker 1: world because the fifth and I do everything together. So

168
00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:57,560
Speaker 1: it worked out. But I was like, wow, out of everybody,

169
00:07:57,600 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 1: they just felt like he would be the one to

170
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 1: really tell that story correctly, probably because the power of

171
00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:05,840
Speaker 1: power exactly, and they love power and you know Canan

172
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,160

178
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:23,120

211
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:01,960
Speaker 1: one of those things in life that I feel like

212
00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:04,040
Speaker 1: I could check it off, like, Okay, I did that.

213
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:06,520
Speaker 1: You know, maybe people want to say they've experienced that.

214
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,160

215
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:11,160
Speaker 1: bad that happened to me, so it's not something I

216
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:14,040
Speaker 1: want to experience again. I can have an incredible relationship

217
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:17,200
Speaker 1: with somebody and not be married. I feel like marriage

218
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:19,800
Speaker 1: at times, And I'm not knocking anybody who's married. It

219
00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:21,960
Speaker 1: didn't work for me. I'm all for anyone that worked

220
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:24,319
Speaker 1: for but I feel like marriage at times becomes very

221
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:28,400
Speaker 1: much like business thing and what I found with marriage

222
00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:31,840
Speaker 1: is easy to get into and harder to get out of.

223
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:34,120
Speaker 1: When you're dealing with lawyers and this and that just

224
00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:36,040
Speaker 1: gets really complicated. It's just like I don't I don't

225
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:38,440
Speaker 1: feel like I need that anymore. And y'all both rich too,

226
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 1: though that's the day. I don't make it seem like,

227
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:42,240
Speaker 1: you know, it's complicated to both y'all so rich, like

228
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:44,960
Speaker 1: assects and things divide of it, it's a lot to

229
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 1: ye to break up and make sure things are fair,

230
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,400
Speaker 1: and it gets it could get complicated. What is Lalla

231
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,400
Speaker 1: looking for. Are you looking for somebody younger, older, not

233
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,880
Speaker 1: A regular dude, What would Lalla prefer? I think, like

234
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 1: I don't have this checklist of like what I prefer.

235
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:05,000
Speaker 1: I think I'm a really cool, down to earth person.

236
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:06,920
Speaker 1: I just want somebody I could vibe with. It's less

237
00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:10,720
Speaker 1: about somebody like what you have, obviously. I want somebody

238
00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:13,200
Speaker 1: with ambition and somebody that's doing something with themselves. But

239
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:15,120

242
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:23,600

243
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:26,560
Speaker 1: Oh what car he got it? It's like, that's not

244
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:30,840
Speaker 1: it for me. Would you did another athlete? I think

245
00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:44,440
Speaker 1: I would stay away from the NBA. You are, You

246
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:47,400
Speaker 1: are in a space where you can make a decision

247
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:49,439
Speaker 1: on what you want to do in your own time

248
00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:52,360
Speaker 1: based on whatever, because it's not like you have to.

249
00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:53,760
Speaker 1: You know, we were just talking about this the other

252
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:02,040
Speaker 1: that and then and financially you're good. So it's not

253
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:05,000
Speaker 1: like you're looking for somebody that has to check off, yes,

254
00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:07,559
Speaker 1: because you are stable already. But of course you want

255
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:10,320
Speaker 1: somebody ambitious. I want somebody ambitious that has something gone

256
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:13,480

260
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:23,040
Speaker 1: to introduce someone. So he got so much money, like

261
00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:25,679
Speaker 1: that's it, and I'm just like, all right, that's cool.

262
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:29,280
Speaker 1: But yeah, there's money out there, but I want to

263
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:30,880
Speaker 1: be able to vibe with you and talk to It's

264
00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:32,720
Speaker 1: a lot of guys with money out there that can't

265
00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:35,440
Speaker 1: even hold a conversation. Yeah, right, So what we're gonna

268
00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:46,400
Speaker 1: Raising Kayenne um? Because he's on his way. Everybody can

269
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:48,800
Speaker 1: clearly see that. Yeah, as Berkeley said, he was amazing

270
00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:50,560
Speaker 1: and he was training him. I saw it when he

271
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:52,920
Speaker 1: said that, which was so so awesome. Yeah with Kayenne,

272
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 1: you know, I keep a close eye, but I want

273
00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:57,920
Speaker 1: them to still live life and be a fifteen year old.

274
00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:01,280
Speaker 1: It's also, you know, growing up in Brooklyn is different too,

275
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:04,559
Speaker 1: Like I just gotta make sure he's in the right

276
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:06,720
Speaker 1: places where he needs to be because he's fifteen. He

277
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 1: wants to hang out, he wants to go to certain

278
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:11,760
Speaker 1: places and play basketball, and not really understanding sometimes why

279
00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:14,640
Speaker 1: he can't just do what everybody can do all the time.

280
00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:16,440
Speaker 1: And now it's to the point where everyone's having like

281
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:19,040
Speaker 1: sweet sixteen parties and all this stuff. And they'd be like, oh,

282
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:24,160
Speaker 1: man's a party in Queens and somebody's whatever apartment complex

283
00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:26,240
Speaker 1: and this and that, and I'm like, oh, like, you

284
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:28,320
Speaker 1: could go, but I just want to have somebody outside

285
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:29,760
Speaker 1: even if they don't go. And he's like, well, then

286
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:31,640
Speaker 1: I don't want to go because he doesn't want to

287
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:34,360
Speaker 1: feel like he's walking around with eyes on him and

288
00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:38,680
Speaker 1: stuff like that. He's so low key. So that's what

289
00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:41,440
Speaker 1: it is. So he found out what the funny thing is.

290
00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:44,320
Speaker 1: So he went to a party sweet sixteen, and I

291
00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:46,280
Speaker 1: was like, I'm gonna have somebody in there, but I'm

292
00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:48,160
Speaker 1: not gonna tell him. So the person was in there

293
00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:50,040
Speaker 1: low and I'm not spying on him. I just if

294
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:52,720
Speaker 1: anything goes down. A lot of these parties getting shot up,

295
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:54,200
Speaker 1: a lot of stuff is happening, so I'm like, I

296
00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:56,559
Speaker 1: just just in case. So then he's getting ready to

297
00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 1: leave and he was getting in the car. He's like, man,

298
00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:02,319
Speaker 1: some guy approached me and was like had my address

299
00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:03,920
Speaker 1: on the phone and was like putting me in the

300
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:06,240
Speaker 1: car and stuff. He was like, did you have like

301
00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:08,840
Speaker 1: security there or something. I'm like, the guy blew my

302
00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:10,600
Speaker 1: cover because he just wanted to make sure he got

303
00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:13,280
Speaker 1: in the car and everything like that. But you found

304
00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:15,320
Speaker 1: this guy in the car and some random guy. No, no, no, no.

305
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:17,160
Speaker 1: The guy was like the guy told him I guess

306
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:19,040
Speaker 1: after was like, y'all work with your mom. I just

307
00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:20,600
Speaker 1: want to make sure you're getting because he was looking

308
00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:23,000
Speaker 1: like I still like. He was like I work with

309
00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:25,120
Speaker 1: your mom. No, but he called me before. You're like, man,

310
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:28,880
Speaker 1: this guy showing me like the car destination. But so

311
00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:30,920
Speaker 1: he blew it up. My point is, but he was

312
00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:32,360
Speaker 1: just like, mom, why are you didn't tell me? So

313
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:34,520
Speaker 1: then I was like, well he wasn't inside, and he

314
00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:36,960
Speaker 1: was like I think he was inside. He just doesn't

315
00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:39,080
Speaker 1: like the extra attention. My son is so down to

316
00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 1: earth and humble and chill. He doesn't like all of that,

317
00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:44,680
Speaker 1: but he has to understand at certain times. Just gotta

318
00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:50,160
Speaker 1: be careful. It's a different world out here, right because

319
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:52,520
Speaker 1: he has Everyone asked me that like he has it,

320
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 1: he has it. I was talking to some kids, yes

321
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:56,880
Speaker 1: say it's like, has he been having girls over stuff?

322
00:14:57,320 --> 00:14:59,760
Speaker 1: He's just very low key quiet. I'm not saying he's

323
00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:01,960
Speaker 1: not into girls. Yeah, he probably is and just not

324
00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:04,480
Speaker 1: telling me. But there's been no females at the house.

325
00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:06,800
Speaker 1: He hasn't asked me to like go on a date

326
00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:09,360
Speaker 1: yet or anything like when that happens though, when he goes,

327
00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:11,280
Speaker 1: I want to go to the movie, so man can soon,

328
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:14,200
Speaker 1: so come over watching watch the Show'm be cool. I'm

329
00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:16,080
Speaker 1: a cool mom. Like I'm gonna be cool to y'all.

330
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 1: Not gonna be in the room with the door close.

331
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 1: That was a whole other discussion I had with somebody yesterday,

332
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:22,320
Speaker 1: Like I don't think at fifteen you need to be

333
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,120
Speaker 1: in your bedroom with the door clothes, Like what are

334
00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:27,000
Speaker 1: y'all doing with the door close in living room? But

335
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:29,280
Speaker 1: other people was like why, it's not a big deal.

336
00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:31,600
Speaker 1: I'm like with the door closed, like we're not doing

337
00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:34,960
Speaker 1: that living room. I'll make the popcorn, I'll bring you

338
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:37,560
Speaker 1: guys and drinks and y'all be good. And it's I

339
00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:39,400
Speaker 1: guess it's hard, Like how do we teach our kids

340
00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:42,040
Speaker 1: screet smarts without them being in the streets? Like we

341
00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:45,800
Speaker 1: all came up in a different environment. And the truth is,

342
00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:48,680
Speaker 1: like my son is in that environment. He goes to

343
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:51,640
Speaker 1: school in Queens. We live in Brooklyn. He's not sheltered.

344
00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:54,320
Speaker 1: He walks around, he goes to the corner store. So

345
00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:57,880
Speaker 1: it's not like he lives a life where he's behind everything.

346
00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:00,440
Speaker 1: He's out there and he'll go to different problem Jackson's

347
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:03,160
Speaker 1: friends living there, you want to play basketball, in different

348
00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:05,520
Speaker 1: projects or whatever. And it's like I gotta let him live.

349
00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:08,800
Speaker 1: And I love that he's well rounded and guess what

350
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:11,360
Speaker 1: it's like to grow up all different kind of ways.

351
00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:13,680
Speaker 1: But I also have to make sure that he's careful

352
00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:17,640
Speaker 1: and understands that he's a target. And he doesn't understand

353
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:20,000
Speaker 1: that yet. Does he take the train? He doesn't take

354
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,720
Speaker 1: the train, but he doesn't take the train, but they

355
00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:29,320
Speaker 1: want to jump in. Yeah, my mom works for transit.

356
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:31,760
Speaker 1: I've been taking the train my whole but now you

357
00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:33,400
Speaker 1: take the train. I was just saying that with that

358
00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:37,080
Speaker 1: fender jagging on, I was just saying. I was just

359
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:40,040
Speaker 1: saying the other day that when I started my new

360
00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:42,120
Speaker 1: show was at ten am, and the trap is gonna

361
00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:44,360
Speaker 1: be so bad or take the town that I really

362
00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 1: might have to take the train. Wow, if I if

363
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:50,560
Speaker 1: I have a choice between two hours driving or thirty

364
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:52,160
Speaker 1: minutes on the train, Yeah, I get it. I'm gonna

365
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:53,840
Speaker 1: take train. I feel you on that, but you what,

366
00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:57,960
Speaker 1: hoodie up? Just all people be talking to me when

367
00:16:58,000 --> 00:16:59,520
Speaker 1: guy sat next to me the whole I was trying

368
00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:02,160
Speaker 1: to read a book and just say, I think it's

369
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,160
Speaker 1: just a faster way. To know, it is a faster way.

370
00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:06,520
Speaker 1: I don't I don't feel comfortable with the train. But

371
00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:08,840
Speaker 1: you know they want to jump in ubers or now

372
00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:11,240
Speaker 1: you got friends that drive and I'm just like, oh

373
00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:13,480
Speaker 1: my friend drives. Its just it could get tricky. Just

374
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:15,120
Speaker 1: tell him that he has to start moving like an

375
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:18,080
Speaker 1: NBA player. That right, right, that's get used to it.

376
00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:20,240
Speaker 1: The security and everything else. Yeah, because literally when I

377
00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:22,000
Speaker 1: talk him about security or like so he's like I

378
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:24,040
Speaker 1: don't want to go. Then like he doesn't want some

379
00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 1: kids love that. Also, like the way he dresses. Like

380
00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:28,560
Speaker 1: I could buy him stuff, he still want to just

381
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:31,679
Speaker 1: wear Nike Tech sweat. So he doesn't want anything. He

382
00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:34,760
Speaker 1: doesn't want anything that's gonna make him stand out from

383
00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:36,840
Speaker 1: everybody else. That's just how my son is. I said,

384
00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:38,639
Speaker 1: my kids rolling aloud with security. If they want to

385
00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:40,440
Speaker 1: go to every SEC I don't care if they like it.

386
00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:42,520
Speaker 1: I love it. So if they had a problem with it,

387
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:45,199
Speaker 1: they do. But I make security playoff more. I sent

388
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:47,360
Speaker 1: an uncle with him or somebody like that. Right, it's

389
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:50,600
Speaker 1: for my Yeah, like you went there in backstage vip

390
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:55,840
Speaker 1: passes right right, so a security that Yeah, let's talk

391
00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:57,880
Speaker 1: about rikers atland because we saw that you've been doing

392
00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:00,280
Speaker 1: it and stay yesterday. As a matter of fact, people

393
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:02,960
Speaker 1: doing that on the lower field, Like you know, the

394
00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:05,760
Speaker 1: thing is like I just feel I've been saying it

395
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:07,600
Speaker 1: like it's a double edged sword when you do stuff

396
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:10,280
Speaker 1: because on one hand, when you talk about it, it's like, oh,

397
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:12,080
Speaker 1: you're just doing it to talk about it. But it's

398
00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:14,240
Speaker 1: like if you don't talk about it, then how do

399
00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:17,680
Speaker 1: you get resources or more funding or sponsorships whatever. Then

400
00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:19,959
Speaker 1: when you do talk about it, you're bragging, and then

401
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 1: if you don't talk about it, yes, low and it's

402
00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:23,400
Speaker 1: great and you're doing it from your heart, but then

403
00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:26,400
Speaker 1: when you need to pull some necessary strings, nobody knows

404
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:28,800
Speaker 1: what you're doing. So it came out on its own.

405
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:30,840
Speaker 1: And then once it came out, I was like, I'm

406
00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:32,600
Speaker 1: not ashamed of it. I'm proud of what I'm doing.

407
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:35,080
Speaker 1: And now that people know about it, I've received so

408
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:39,000
Speaker 1: much help from especially just New York the community here,

409
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:43,280
Speaker 1: whether it's restaurants providing food, Emory with pumas for everybody

410
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:46,639
Speaker 1: in there, shout out to Emory. Just so many people

411
00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:48,399
Speaker 1: just like, Wow, what do you like calling me? What

412
00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:49,640
Speaker 1: do you need? I got you what do you need?

413
00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:53,119
Speaker 1: And it's just been been so helpful. So what is that?

414
00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:57,400
Speaker 1: Tell us what it is exactly? So the initiative initially

415
00:18:57,480 --> 00:18:59,960
Speaker 1: was Fatherless No More, which was started by a pastor,

416
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,520
Speaker 1: pastor Tim Johnson, who you guys should definitely have come

417
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:04,760
Speaker 1: up here one day. He's an incredible and he was

418
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:07,600
Speaker 1: a pastor out of Orlando. He literally said, one day

419
00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:09,480
Speaker 1: God spoke to him and said you need to go

420
00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:12,399
Speaker 1: to Rikers And he didn't even know anything about Rikers.

421
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,639
Speaker 1: He lives in Orlando. He got into RV and drove

422
00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:19,080
Speaker 1: to New York, pulled up to Rikers basically came in,

423
00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:21,960
Speaker 1: like I guess, the visiting room and was like, God

424
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:23,920
Speaker 1: called me here. Everyone's probably looking at him, like what

425
00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:25,600
Speaker 1: are you talking about. He got with the right people.

426
00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:27,400
Speaker 1: They were like, all right, we'll let you do. At

427
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:31,359
Speaker 1: this point, Rikers was just chaos, a total chaos. They're like,

428
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:35,040
Speaker 1: we'll let you do whatever. He parked his RV inside

429
00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:37,879
Speaker 1: Rikers Island, which has never been done before, and literally

430
00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:40,399
Speaker 1: was just going in every day with this initiative and

431
00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:43,879
Speaker 1: talking to a group of young men who are fatherless

432
00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:47,240
Speaker 1: and finding their father in God and in Jesus Christ.

433
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:49,800
Speaker 1: So that's how it started. So I came in and

434
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:51,720
Speaker 1: watched what he was doing, and I was like, this

435
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:54,720
Speaker 1: is incredible. And then I kind of just pivoted. I

436
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:56,440
Speaker 1: worked with him a lot, still work with him, and

437
00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:59,879
Speaker 1: then I kind of pivoted into kind of creating my

438
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:03,200
Speaker 1: my own initiative out of his, which is just about

439
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:06,600
Speaker 1: like life skills and re entry and tools you need

440
00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:09,280
Speaker 1: just in life. You'll you'll be surprised how many of

441
00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:12,000
Speaker 1: these young men that I'm working with, you know, don't

442
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:15,480
Speaker 1: have parents. Definitely don't have fathers, never been told I love.

443
00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:18,480
Speaker 1: You don't even know how to talk to certain people

444
00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:20,760
Speaker 1: or feel that love. And just teaching them like, you

445
00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:23,440
Speaker 1: guys are worthy to be loved and you guys are

446
00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:25,880
Speaker 1: great people, and just loving on them and giving them

447
00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:28,439
Speaker 1: life skills and it's been it's been a life changing

448
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:30,960
Speaker 1: experience for me. We saw a Little Baby pop up yeah,

449
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:33,119
Speaker 1: which I thought was incredible, Like Little Baby hit me

450
00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:35,480
Speaker 1: his album came out. He's like, lie, you know, I know,

Speaker 1: I'm like, you could be anywhere in the world and

455
00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:44,960
Speaker 1: you want to be here. And he was incarcerated before

456
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:47,480
Speaker 1: and really spoke about his experience, and the young men

457
00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:50,359
Speaker 1: were so you know, excited to see him there. It was.

458
00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:52,440
Speaker 1: It was incredible, and I do want to say something

459
00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:54,359
Speaker 1: else because you know, a couple of people are asking me.

460
00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:56,640
Speaker 1: They were like, you know, the young women need help

461
00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,359
Speaker 1: as well there, and I was like, not the issue.

462
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:01,720
Speaker 1: I'm gonna my way there. I was introduced to the

463
00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:04,840
Speaker 1: initiative through the young Men the eighteen to twenty one

464
00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:07,880
Speaker 1: population at the R and DC building, So that's how

465
00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:10,439
Speaker 1: I was introduced to initiatives. So I started there and

466
00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:12,920
Speaker 1: it's been great because when I look at eighteen nineteen

467
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:14,840
Speaker 1: year olds, I see Cayenne, I see my son. So

468
00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:16,840
Speaker 1: I know how to talk to them. I know how

469
00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:19,760
Speaker 1: to kind of be like a mom they never had

470
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:22,560
Speaker 1: or a sister they never had. And I'm working my

471
00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:25,320
Speaker 1: way to the female facility as well. But that's the

472
00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:27,000
Speaker 1: only reason why I haven't done it there yet. It's

473
00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:29,359
Speaker 1: just I started there, Like you guys, gotta give me time,

474
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:30,919
Speaker 1: like I'm going to get that going, and then of

475
00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:33,080
Speaker 1: course I want to talk to the young women who

476
00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:36,680
Speaker 1: I know need just as much support you know as well.

477
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:39,240
Speaker 1: So I'm trying to make my way, but it takes

478
00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:40,720
Speaker 1: up a lot of time. Yeah, that's gonna make so

479
00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:42,920
Speaker 1: much sense, especially with this Stio brown dot com like

480
00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:45,439
Speaker 1: course of course, and just thinking of everyone we can

481
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,560
Speaker 1: bring up there to talk to the female population as well.

482
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:50,560
Speaker 1: But it's life changing, Like they tell me all the

483
00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:53,159
Speaker 1: time how I've changed their lives. But I'm like, you

484
00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:56,159
Speaker 1: guys have changed my life, like to find like real purpose,

485
00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:58,760
Speaker 1: like I've always given back, but like to find real

486
00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:02,119
Speaker 1: purpose is like a front different kind because I can

487
00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:05,399
Speaker 1: imagine feeling that they feel forgotten and not cared about.

488
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:08,520
Speaker 1: And at Rikers Island, yeah, one hundred percent. And it's

489
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:11,000
Speaker 1: just like you just hear so many negative every day

490
00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:13,320
Speaker 1: there's a story about Rikers. Negative, negative, you never hear

491
00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:15,440
Speaker 1: anything positive. I thought when I walked in there, we

492
00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:18,199
Speaker 1: was just gonna be like people running through the always

493
00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:20,880
Speaker 1: just slicing each other up. And I'm not saying things

494
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:23,679
Speaker 1: like this don't happen there. Obviously we read about them.

495
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:26,240
Speaker 1: I'm there, so I know about stuff that happens. But

496
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:29,120
Speaker 1: there's so much positivity coming out of Rikers as well

497
00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:32,400
Speaker 1: that you just never hear about. So many programs, initiatives

498
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:35,320
Speaker 1: and kids. Really I deal with the younger properties. So

499
00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:37,080
Speaker 1: when I say kids, I mean eighteen to twenty one

500
00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:39,879
Speaker 1: who really have changed their lives and like really re

501
00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:42,720
Speaker 1: entered into society and became great. I found jobs for

502
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:45,040
Speaker 1: some of the kids in the program, you know, just

503
00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:48,159
Speaker 1: help them re enter into society and do great things.

504
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:50,960
Speaker 1: Like it's been some amazing work going on, and we're

505
00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:52,520
Speaker 1: about to get out of jail and try to get

506
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:54,280
Speaker 1: a job either. Because when you have to fill out

507
00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:57,320
Speaker 1: that form. It's horrible, and they ask and that's why

508
00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:59,679
Speaker 1: I step in, because then it's like about who you know.

509
00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:01,840
Speaker 1: And I got a lot of people that owe me

510
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:04,000
Speaker 1: a lot of favors that I've never catched in on.

511
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:05,920
Speaker 1: So I'm like, I got a kid who works really hard.

512
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:07,840
Speaker 1: Put them in the back of your restaurant. Can he

513
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:09,960
Speaker 1: work at your sneaker store? Can he do this? Can

514
00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:11,760
Speaker 1: he intern? And I have one of the kids who's

515
00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:14,440
Speaker 1: my intern, So I can't talk about it and then

516
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:16,560
Speaker 1: not do it, you know, in my own business. So

517
00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:19,480
Speaker 1: we're always trying to find opportunities for them. And also

518
00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:21,320
Speaker 1: I go even further, like I go to the court

519
00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:23,399
Speaker 1: with them. I talk to the judges on their behalf

520
00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:25,720
Speaker 1: to speak about what they've done in the initiative and

521
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:28,720
Speaker 1: how they've changed, and just really trying to make a difference. No,

522
00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:36,359
Speaker 1: I've never been locked up before. I've got an advice before,

523
00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:39,360
Speaker 1: but I never got locked I never got locked up before,

524
00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:41,640
Speaker 1: thank God. But yeah, I've been in some ship before.

525
00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:43,600
Speaker 1: Are you gonna document some of this so that people

526
00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:46,000
Speaker 1: can actually see it? I think eventually, I think it

527
00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:47,960
Speaker 1: would be cool to document what's going on. I know

528
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,840
Speaker 1: Pastor Tim is working on a book and a documentary

529
00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:52,560
Speaker 1: as well. From my part of it, I think I

530
00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:54,200
Speaker 1: think it would be good, but I just want to

531
00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:56,919
Speaker 1: make sure they're comfortable with that right now. You know,

532
00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,760
Speaker 1: with this group of young men, you gotta build trust

533
00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:01,399
Speaker 1: for it, like they could read through it. They tell

534
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:02,960
Speaker 1: me all the time. When you first started coming, he

535
00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:05,200
Speaker 1: was like, oh, celebrity, you want to take a picture. Like,

536
00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:06,679
Speaker 1: they keep it real with you. They're gonna tell you

537
00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,280
Speaker 1: the truth. They're like, but you come so much. I

538
00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:12,280
Speaker 1: go every week, like twice a week on average. Sometimes

539
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:15,280
Speaker 1: I'm doing twenty hours a week at Rikers, no phone.

540
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:17,639
Speaker 1: I'm in there without my phone, just with them. They're like,

541
00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:19,879
Speaker 1: you've proven to us time and time again that this

542
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:22,320
Speaker 1: is real for you, Like this is not just a

543
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:24,880
Speaker 1: photo op or this, And I mean, I love them.

544
00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:26,879
Speaker 1: And one of the kids yesterday he told me. I

545
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:28,960
Speaker 1: was so touched. He was like, la, la. He was like,

546
00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:30,720
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be real with you, he said, outside of

547
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:33,240
Speaker 1: my mom, you are the greatest person I ever met

548
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:35,200
Speaker 1: in my life. And I was just like, I get

549
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:39,200
Speaker 1: emotional saying it now, because it's like that comes with

550
00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:42,119
Speaker 1: time and trust and love and people really believing in you,

551
00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:44,439
Speaker 1: and people feeling like I didn't believe in myself. I

552
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:47,200
Speaker 1: just thought my life was over till I met you

553
00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:49,320
Speaker 1: or I met pastor Tim, and y'all just made me

554
00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:52,440
Speaker 1: feel like I'm madder again. Like that stuff is deep. Well,

555
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:54,520
Speaker 1: feel that way about you. That's why you and everybody's

556
00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:59,399
Speaker 1: wedn't all the time, except my own because I'm never

557
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:03,000
Speaker 1: getting married, but especially so young too, because it could

558
00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:05,240
Speaker 1: be just a stupid decision. Yeah, a lot of it

559
00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:08,040
Speaker 1: is just wrong plays, wrong time friends. A lot of

560
00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:13,120
Speaker 1: it is gang stuff, you know, being influenced by somebody exactly,

561
00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:16,800
Speaker 1: it's a wrongful conviction. It's a lot of that. Like

562
00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:19,159
Speaker 1: it's not just you know, I mean some of that

563
00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:21,840
Speaker 1: in there too, like murders whatever. But a lot of

564
00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:23,960
Speaker 1: it is just that and just understanding, like be a

565
00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:26,160
Speaker 1: leader not a follower, and look what it where it's

566
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 1: gotten you, and just just loving on them some people.

567
00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:30,639
Speaker 1: You'd be surrising if people in this world never even

568
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:32,800
Speaker 1: heard somebody tell them I love you, like they never

569
00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:35,880
Speaker 1: heard those words and things that we could take for granted,

570
00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:38,000
Speaker 1: makes it difference. You ever feel like people don't get

571
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 1: the whole totality of lah lah because you don't show

572
00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:44,160
Speaker 1: that stuff. You perposely don't show that type of stuff.

573
00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:46,639
Speaker 1: Are really the other things you're doing business, all the

574
00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:49,480
Speaker 1: things you might do for people. Yeah, sometimes I feel

575
00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:51,639
Speaker 1: like that, but then it's like that's never been my

576
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 1: motivation behind doing it. Is like same thing with any acting.

577
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,320
Speaker 1: My motivation is not to get awards and things like that,

578
00:25:57,359 --> 00:25:58,800
Speaker 1: but when you do it. When you do we not

579
00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:01,960
Speaker 1: got nominated, but it's like, oh, it's a great that's

580
00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:03,719
Speaker 1: a great feeling and you feel like wow, people are

581
00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:05,719
Speaker 1: recognizing it. But that's not what you do it for.

582
00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:08,600
Speaker 1: So I'm in there because, as I said to you

583
00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:12,280
Speaker 1: guys before, it's changing my life. It's giving me a purpose.

584
00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:15,840
Speaker 1: So whether people recognize it or give me accolades, I

585
00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:18,800
Speaker 1: don't care about that. It's changing my life. It's changing

586
00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:21,280
Speaker 1: who I am. I said, you know, after my divorce

587
00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:23,359
Speaker 1: and everything, I was going through a period where you

588
00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:25,880
Speaker 1: feel kind of lost, like okay, what's life now? Like

589
00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:28,880
Speaker 1: I went from this to now this, I'm on my own,

590
00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:31,280
Speaker 1: Like this is a different space for me. So to

591
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:34,720
Speaker 1: find purpose in something else. It's changing my life. So

592
00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:37,440
Speaker 1: that's what matters. Do you still have to audition for roles. Yes,

593
00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:39,600
Speaker 1: I do, not all of them, not all of them.

594
00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:41,560
Speaker 1: I get a lot of offers, but when you get

595
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:44,399
Speaker 1: to those roles that you really want to fight for it,

596
00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:46,680
Speaker 1: then yeah, you got an audition. You're in a Kenya

597
00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,280
Speaker 1: Barrass movie coming up to right. Yes, it's a comedy.

598
00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:52,560
Speaker 1: So it's a comedy. It's myself, Eddie Murphy, Nia Long,

599
00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:56,360
Speaker 1: Lauren London's Jonah Hill is an incredible cast. I mean

600
00:26:56,640 --> 00:27:01,280
Speaker 1: that was amazing. She's in there, She's in there. No,

604
00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:10,520
Speaker 1: because I did those two movies at the same time.

605
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:12,679
Speaker 1: So yeah, she always says that's how her and I

606
00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:14,600
Speaker 1: got so close. It's so funny because people will see

607
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:16,520
Speaker 1: us and be like, how are y'all like this? But

608
00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:18,640
Speaker 1: when you're on the set of a movie, you become

609
00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:20,199
Speaker 1: closer to people you work with. So she was in

610
00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:22,880
Speaker 1: my hotel room every day. I would be coaching her

611
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:24,760
Speaker 1: on the lines and doing everything. So her and I

612
00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:27,040
Speaker 1: we were very close because of that. But yeah, that

613
00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:30,280
Speaker 1: movie is gonna be gonna be incredible. And Eddie Murphy.

614
00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:32,960
Speaker 1: I mean, I had a moment where I was like, yo,

615
00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:35,800
Speaker 1: I'm in a movie with Eddie Murphy. Like when you

616
00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:38,400
Speaker 1: look up and it's Eddie Murphy standing right there, like

617
00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:41,520
Speaker 1: that's never gonna get old. I'm like, yo, that's Eddie

618
00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:44,760
Speaker 1: Murphy right there, and he's like, hey, you doing I'm like, nah,

619
00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:46,719
Speaker 1: this is crazy. Eddie Murphy knows who I like, this

620
00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:49,280
Speaker 1: is wow. But it's gonna be incredible. So that's coming

621
00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:53,439
Speaker 1: out probably around January February. And then Gabrielle Union and

622
00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:54,960
Speaker 1: I that was other movie I was talking about. We

623
00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:57,200
Speaker 1: got a Netflix movie called The Perfect Fine with Keith

624
00:27:57,240 --> 00:28:01,000
Speaker 1: Powers where Gabrielle Union's character was in love with Keith Power.

625
00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:03,560
Speaker 1: So an older woman with a younger man and just

626
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:05,560
Speaker 1: everything that happens from that. Yeah. One of my good

627
00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:11,159
Speaker 1: homies in that movie with Jonah Hill Andrew Oh yeah, yeah,

628
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:18,800
Speaker 1: and he thoroughly enjoys seeing you and young Miami. I

629
00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:20,719
Speaker 1: never seen his exactly what I've never seen any I've

630
00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:26,000
Speaker 1: never seen no shit like that. We had a good time. Yeah,

631
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 1: we had a good time. And there was a scene

632
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 1: where we had to like dancing. It was, yeah, probably

633
00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:37,400
Speaker 1: what he was. He had a lot of white man

634
00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:41,760
Speaker 1: questions to him his black friend about black women, and

635
00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:45,040
Speaker 1: you know what the question was just like you know,

636
00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:48,560
Speaker 1: like he was very intrigued. I remember one time speaking

637
00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:50,440
Speaker 1: of like sexies. I'm not gonna say who, but I

638
00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:54,280
Speaker 1: remember one time I was doing a sexy was so like, well,

639
00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:55,920
Speaker 1: you guys could figure it out. It was a white

640
00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:57,760
Speaker 1: guy and he was just like, we know it is.

641
00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:03,320
Speaker 1: It was just like, yeah, I know, seeing nobody like this. Yeah,

642
00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:14,120
Speaker 1: just like he said it the fires gravity he was

643
00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:21,000
Speaker 1: just sitting there. He was just there like that's what

644
00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:25,040
Speaker 1: he said. How is how Shock doing? By the way,

645
00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:27,880
Speaker 1: so I talked to Shock yesterday doing well, definitely, you know,

646
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:31,600
Speaker 1: still in physical therapy getting himself together. That was a

647
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:34,880
Speaker 1: real scary experience and just you know, fighting and and

648
00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:37,760
Speaker 1: ready for the journey ahead and hoping that everything you know,

649
00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:40,240
Speaker 1: turns out the way it's supposed to. But he got

650
00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:43,920
Speaker 1: so many supporters and people behind him who know what

651
00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:46,600
Speaker 1: it is, and we're just gonna fight and make sure

652
00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:49,240
Speaker 1: that everything turns out the way it's supposed to. Absolute,

653
00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:52,680
Speaker 1: how do situations like that make you look at life?

654
00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:55,280
Speaker 1: Come up? With and you're like, WHOA, it makes me

655
00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:59,800
Speaker 1: never take life for granted, understand what really matters in life.

656
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,040
Speaker 1: So like when we go back to giving back and

657
00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:04,920
Speaker 1: doing things like that, what really matters? Like it just

658
00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:08,440
Speaker 1: puts everything into perspective because you know, we almost lost

659
00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:12,560
Speaker 1: shocking now that that's who started my career. That's my family.

660
00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:14,320
Speaker 1: That's who I've known since I was fifteen years old,

661
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:17,160
Speaker 1: and I laid in a hospital with him every single day.

662
00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:18,920
Speaker 1: You know, I was the first one at the hospital

663
00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:22,440
Speaker 1: when it happened. So it's like you just life flashes

664
00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:25,760
Speaker 1: right before your eyes and you're like this can be

665
00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:28,200
Speaker 1: taken away from us like that, and it's just something

666
00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:30,239
Speaker 1: you never want to take for granted. No, So you know,

667
00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:32,520
Speaker 1: you know what, kim Kay was your friend when you

00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:08,520
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, this was that was there by yourself

681
00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:13,520
Speaker 1: in Vegas. Birthday Okay, so let me tell you guys

682
00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:15,480
Speaker 1: a story. I'll keep it short. So basically, it was

683
00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:19,880
Speaker 1: her birthday Friday, so we were surprising her to bring

684
00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:22,320
Speaker 1: her to Vegas on Saturday for the Usher concert. But

685
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:23,800
Speaker 1: she didn't know I was coming. So I was like,

686
00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:25,400
Speaker 1: I'm coming from New York. What's the point of me

687
00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:27,120
Speaker 1: flying all the way to LA then? So I'll just

688
00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:29,160
Speaker 1: meet you guys in Vegas. So they're like, oh, you

689
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:30,920
Speaker 1: don't want to fly on a private plane. No, I don't.

690
00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:32,520
Speaker 1: I just want to fly straight to Vegas. So I

691
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:34,880
Speaker 1: get to Vegas. She's calling me, just thinking I'm in

692
00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:36,320
Speaker 1: New York. I'm like, yeah, so what' she's gonna do?

693
00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:38,440
Speaker 1: She's like, I think it would have take me somewhere,

694
00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:40,120
Speaker 1: but I don't know. But the whole time I'm sitting

695
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:42,360
Speaker 1: in Vegas. So I'm getting dressed, hair and makeup, done,

696
00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:45,000
Speaker 1: getting ready to start the night, excited for the Usher concerts.

697
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:47,400
Speaker 1: So then they call me. They're like, they're not letting

698
00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:49,920
Speaker 1: the plane land because of wind, Like the wind was

699
00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:52,120
Speaker 1: bad in Vegas that night and the plane can't land.

700
00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:54,320
Speaker 1: The plane tried three different times to land and when

701
00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:57,080
Speaker 1: it land, so they're turning back around. I'm like, you

702
00:31:57,240 --> 00:32:00,320
Speaker 1: have to be kid. I flew from New York all

703
00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:02,920
Speaker 1: the way here and now I'm here by myself, like

704
00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:04,880
Speaker 1: for the Usher show. But the good thing was, I

705
00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:07,280
Speaker 1: shouldn't say by myself. My cousin Dice, happened to be

706
00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:10,120
Speaker 1: working on Yeah, she's working on a production she does

707
00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:12,560
Speaker 1: production now on a reality show and they were filming

708
00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:14,560
Speaker 1: in Vegas. But she I hadn't seen her because she

709
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:16,240
Speaker 1: was on set. She couldn't get off. So I called Dice.

710
00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:19,440
Speaker 1: I was like, Dice, get to the Usher concert right now.

711
00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:21,719
Speaker 1: Please don't make me sit and watch the Usher concert

712
00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:24,200
Speaker 1: by myself. And she pulled a little quick one too,

713
00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:27,120
Speaker 1: came and her work work gear, and we just watched Usher.

714
00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:28,800
