Speaker 1: the Hair and Nail's remix too.

41
00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:30,560
Speaker 2: Yes, we just actually shot the video for that with

42
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:34,240
Speaker 2: Maya V. Shout out to Maya V. It was just dope.

43
00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:36,919
Speaker 2: I like to do woman things, so just to have.

44
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:39,119
Speaker 1: Like I could tell by looking at you, yeah, you.

45
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:41,920
Speaker 2: Know, the female the future is female. So to have

46
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:44,320
Speaker 2: her on the remix and it's like we're tapping into

47
00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 2: like the younger age demographic and it's like putting on

48
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 2: for the girls and making the girls feel good. So

49
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:52,440
Speaker 2: it felt really good to have her on the remix.

50
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:54,600
Speaker 1: Now, let's get into some of your background. So you

51
00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:57,400
Speaker 1: grew up in Staten Island, yes, which you know, tell

52
00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:00,600
Speaker 1: me about Stanton Island, and like the music vibes there.

53
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 2: The music vibes there. You know, everybody knows Wu Tang,

54
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:05,880
Speaker 2: so like that was our main thing for a long time.

55
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:08,359
Speaker 2: But we do have a lot of up and coming

56
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 2: artists coming out now. Everybody's pretty much doing their own thing,

57
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 2: but everybody puts on for themselves. I wish there was

58
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 2: a lot more unity with everybody. That that would be

59
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:20,519
Speaker 2: fire because then we could basically take over New York

60
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:24,239
Speaker 2: no fund to anybody else. But yeah, growing up the

61
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:26,639
Speaker 2: music scene is just it's always been there. It's always

62
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:29,720
Speaker 2: been prominent, especially in my life. My high school life,

63
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 2: I was performing arts major so yeah, everything was, everything

64
00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,360
Speaker 2: was great. I just loved music. It's always been a

65
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:38,520
Speaker 2: part of everything that I've been trying to do.

66
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:41,680
Speaker 1: When did you first start tapping into your musical side?

67
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 1: Because you know I and I hate this too. If

68
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:46,320
Speaker 1: you search your name, it's always like meta Man's daughter.

69
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,560
Speaker 1: Yeah that's what it says in front of everything, which

70
00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:51,880
Speaker 1: it's a gift and a curse, all right, because it

71
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:53,760
Speaker 1: is a gift because your dad is amazing and people

72
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:55,840
Speaker 1: love him, you know, as an artist, as an actor

73
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 1: and everything. But it's also kind of like, I don't

74
00:02:58,280 --> 00:02:59,520
Speaker 1: want to be meta man's daughter.

75
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:02,360
Speaker 2: You know, I have my own name. You know it's shy,

76
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 2: but go off, okay.

77
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:07,720
Speaker 1: But talk to me about when you first started tapping

78
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 1: into the musical side of yourself, because those are some big,

79
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 1: big footsteps to following.

80
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:17,680
Speaker 2: Absolutely so tapping into the musical side for myself, I

81
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:20,200
Speaker 2: had to be very young. Me and my brother used

82
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:22,520
Speaker 2: to put on concerts with each other, singing my dad's

83
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 2: songs and you know, all the songs that was out

84
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:28,080
Speaker 2: in like the early two thousands. And then when I

85
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:31,079
Speaker 2: was nine, I made my first this record, I guess

86
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 2: you could say a bully, a bully from school record.

87
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:38,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, tell me a little bit of it I wanted.

88
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 2: It was called Don't Mess with Me, so I was

89
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,600
Speaker 2: just basically telling her, don't mess with me, like girl,

90
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 2: like the same girl. You know, we're not even gonna

91
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 2: give her no sean God bless her, you know, Okay,

92
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:48,560
Speaker 2: but she was bullying me, so you don't have to

93
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:50,640
Speaker 2: do my little I don't remember the verse or anything.

94
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:53,160
Speaker 2: But I do remember I made it was my first

95
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 2: ever email account because I needed to make the beats

96
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 2: to put on my Space. So my cousin made me

97
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:00,360
Speaker 2: my first email. That's how I know what. I was

98
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 2: nine and I was like, it's lit, I got a song.

99
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:04,960
Speaker 2: I'm about to make an album. And then after that,

100
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 2: I've just been like on and off my brother shout

Speaker 1: I was like that gotta be her brother because yeah, yes,

00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:28,800
Speaker 1: I said, because if that was your mayor, he looked

110
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:29,359
Speaker 1: too much like you.

111
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:33,640

116
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:48,160
Speaker 2: like old nineties, like if you want to get into

117
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 2: that groove.

118
00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:51,480
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, So y'all are a little different with your approach.

119
00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 2: Absolutely absolutely all right.

120
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:56,479
Speaker 1: And now I know your mom is also with you

121
00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:58,479
Speaker 1: a lot and very instrumental in what you have going

122
00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 1: on with your music. What did she think initially of

123
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 1: your music because it is a little different than like

124
00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:06,760
Speaker 1: what your brother's doing and then obviously what your dad did.

125
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 1: It's a whole new younger vibe. It's drill music incorporated.

126
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:12,960
Speaker 1: So is that music that she was like, I get it,

127
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:14,800
Speaker 1: I listened to this or was it like, okay, my

128
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:15,720
Speaker 1: this is you know.

129
00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 2: She's kind of like because we listen to a lot

130
00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:23,040
Speaker 2: of different music around the house, so she's like hip

131
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:26,120
Speaker 2: to it, but to like hear me doing it and

132
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,200
Speaker 2: like to hear my voice behind the things. She's like

133
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:30,680
Speaker 2: one of my biggest supporters. So it's like she's like

134
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:33,039
Speaker 2: always that voice of my ear, like yeah that's that stuff?

135
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 2: Was fire what you got. So it was good just

136
00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 2: getting that support from her and just from my whole

137
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,800
Speaker 2: family in anything that I'm doing because that's what I

138
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:41,640
Speaker 2: feed off of.

139
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:44,640
Speaker 1: Right. And then even with the Wu Tang next generation,

140
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:49,000
Speaker 1: y'all actually had done some music together too, Like I

141
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:50,600
Speaker 1: think it was ghost Faces.

142
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:57,599
Speaker 2: Yeah, ghost Face song, I know, Young Dirty YDB, and

143
00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,840
Speaker 2: then my brother FO powered my cousin into we're all

144
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:04,120
Speaker 2: the technically second generation. We're like a step down from

145
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:07,040
Speaker 2: our fathers who started this big legacy. So we thought,

146
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:10,240
Speaker 2: why not come together and just do something that can't

147
00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:12,240
Speaker 2: be done by anybody else, because who else can say

148
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,880
Speaker 2: they're the second generation but the actual second generation. So

149
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,719
Speaker 2: to come together with all of them, it's like a family.

150
00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:21,000
Speaker 2: It's always been a family. Most of them are actually

151
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 2: my family, right, so it's it's never anything like weird

152
00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 2: or awkward. It's literally like love all the time.

153
00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:29,560
Speaker 1: It feels like a reality show.

154
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,280
Speaker 2: I don't know. I'm just saying, yeah, it could be.

155
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,360
Speaker 2: It could be, honestly some of the stuff that happens.

156
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:36,279
Speaker 1: Because I feel like we've never seen no like Staten

157
00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 1: Island reality show before. And I used to work in

158
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:41,200
Speaker 1: Staten Island when I went too Dang. I used to

159
00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:44,719
Speaker 1: work in the Bay Street office. It's definitely, Yeah, it's

160
00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:47,960
Speaker 1: definitely like a different whole vibe because I feel like

161
00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,040
Speaker 1: the way Stanton Island is set up, it's not even

162
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:53,479
Speaker 1: as easy just to even take public transportation to get

163
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,800
Speaker 1: to Manhattan Brooklyn. You got to take that ferry.

164
00:06:56,880 --> 00:07:02,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, the ferry, the train, the baits, everything. Yeah, if

165
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 2: you're not taking the for everything, you're paying a million

166
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 2: dollars for toll. So it's like, what are you gonna do?

167
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:09,320
Speaker 1: M Now, how protective were your parents have you growing up?

168
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:13,080
Speaker 2: Like as far as dating, Oh, they were very protective.

169
00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:15,240
Speaker 2: But I always kept in the back of my mind

170
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:17,960
Speaker 2: that Staten Island is so small that whatever I do,

171
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:21,160
Speaker 2: somebody knows. My parents definitely somebody's gonna tell them. I

172
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 2: remember when I first got my new car, my dad

173
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 2: took a picture of it in the parking lot of

174
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:27,240
Speaker 2: my school and I'm like, how did you get here? Like,

175
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:34,800
Speaker 2: please relax, but just sorry that just maybe laugh what

176
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,320
Speaker 2: I want to answer your question fully. So yeah, as far.

177
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:41,320
Speaker 1: As like dating, yes, dating was it intimidating for guys

178
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:44,240
Speaker 1: to try to approach you? Absolutely, and then you know

179
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 1: how it was like listen, I would hate for if

180
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:48,920
Speaker 1: I was a guy, you know, met the man be like,

181
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:51,400
Speaker 1: what do you want with my daughter? How did he

182
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 1: treat them?

183
00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 2: My dad? He's not like you can look at him

184
00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:57,720
Speaker 2: and be like, oh that guy, like he's mean, scary guy,

185
00:07:57,760 --> 00:07:59,600
Speaker 2: but he's really not, like he just he'd be like

186
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:01,680
Speaker 2: what's up and go about his day. But then at

187
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 2: the end of the day he'll pull me asut, like

188
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:04,920
Speaker 2: what's up with that? Who is that going on? And

189
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:08,640
Speaker 2: all of that, because he's very like just like keep

190
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 2: it to us. But on the outside it's like, Okay,

191
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 2: I'm gonna check you mm hmm. See what you're looking like,

192
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:16,640
Speaker 2: mm hmm. And then my mom is the same way,

193
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 2: but she's more like forthcoming with it. She's gonna check

194
00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:21,160
Speaker 2: you in your face, like what you got going on?

195
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 2: Spin a round?

196
00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:26,760
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, okay, not not strict, but paying attention.

197
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:31,080
Speaker 2: Absolutely, just for the safety of myself, just for my protection,

198
00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,240
Speaker 2: because you know, people are not everybody's a good person, right,

199
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:35,600
Speaker 2: so they just want what's best for me.

200
00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:37,840
Speaker 1: And what have they told you as far as you

201
00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 1: doing a career, having a career in music, because it

202
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:42,719
Speaker 1: also was not a very easy business to be in

203
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:44,840
Speaker 1: and there's like a lot of crazy things that have

204
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:48,040
Speaker 1: been happening. So what is some advice that you've gotten,

205
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:50,560
Speaker 1: say from your dad or from your mom, because she

206
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:52,640
Speaker 1: really grew up in this too. He was going to

207
00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,160
Speaker 1: start to get tampons and stuff at the early age.

208
00:08:56,360 --> 00:09:01,400
Speaker 2: You know that story yes, so they just like one

209
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:03,439
Speaker 2: thing that my dad said to me that will always

210
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:08,280
Speaker 2: stick with me is just stay in order to stay

211
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:11,160
Speaker 2: relevant because you know, music changes over time. The nineties

212
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:13,800
Speaker 2: doesn't sound like what we sound like today. Just be

213
00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:17,800
Speaker 2: versatile and be open to everything. And that's what I

214
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:20,320
Speaker 2: try my best to do. So my EP or my

215
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 2: album that's coming up, when we finish it, it's gonna

216
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:25,280
Speaker 2: have a little bit of everything, just so I can

217
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:29,120
Speaker 2: have a variety of sounds for everybody to hear and

218
00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:32,920
Speaker 2: get to know me from and from my mom. What

219
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:36,280
Speaker 2: sticks with me every day is don't slow down. Like

220
00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:39,080
Speaker 2: as soon as you sit back and like get comfortable,

221
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:43,040
Speaker 2: it's like somebody else is coming for your spot. Somebody

222
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 2: is gunning for you. So just keep going and keep trying.

223
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:47,560
Speaker 2: And that's how it's been my whole life. They told

224
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:52,120
Speaker 2: me that like during school. So now that it's coming

225
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:56,400
Speaker 2: to fruition in my actual adulthood life, paying some more

226
00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:57,200
Speaker 2: attention to it.

227
00:09:57,280 --> 00:09:59,240
Speaker 1: So you know, I said, your dad said you perform

228
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:02,800
Speaker 1: for the first time. Yeah too, So talk to me

229
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:05,199
Speaker 1: and walk me through what that experience was. Like.

230
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:08,280
Speaker 2: I was so nervous. Actually, I love going to my

231
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:10,679
Speaker 2: dad and Redman shows because they just put on a

232
00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,960
Speaker 2: great show. That energy is always so high. So me

233
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:17,080
Speaker 2: coming into that, I performed like in the middle of

234
00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 2: their set. So everybody's hype for mec Man and Redman.

235
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 2: They see this little girl come out, they like. So

236
00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:25,320
Speaker 2: I'm like, okay, So I just have to show myself

237
00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:28,000
Speaker 2: and I have to prove myself. And my dad introduced me,

238
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:31,280
Speaker 2: and he did say I was his daughter, but I

239
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:33,840
Speaker 2: still wanted it to be like, I don't know these people,

240
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,480
Speaker 2: Like this is my chance to prove to myself and

241
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:39,520
Speaker 2: everybody hear what I can do. And that's exactly what

242
00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:41,440
Speaker 2: I did. Shout out to my dances, T and T.

243
00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:44,160
Speaker 2: We went out there and we killed it. It was for

244
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,679
Speaker 2: the bud Drop and then they came out and they

245
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 2: performed again. And afterwards my dad, he was just smitten.

246
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,480
Speaker 2: He just told me how happy was with me, and

247
00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:54,600
Speaker 2: we have a great picture from that night, and I

248
00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:57,599
Speaker 2: was just I got chills. I was just very comfortable

249
00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 2: and I was happy because even if something did go wrong,

250
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:04,560
Speaker 2: I knew, like I had the protection around me that

251
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:05,240
Speaker 2: I would be good.

252
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:07,640
Speaker 1: You know. I love the fact that you said you

253
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:09,960
Speaker 1: and your dances and shout at them out because I

254
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,719
Speaker 1: feel like live performances are so important, and since you

255
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:15,280
Speaker 1: talk about method Man and Redman, they've always had a

256
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:17,439
Speaker 1: great show even if there was no type of like

257
00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:20,480
Speaker 1: pyro technics, and they can get on that stage and

258
00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:22,720
Speaker 1: command attention. It doesn't have to be no extion, nothing,

259
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 1: But I do feel like it's so important to be

260
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:26,680
Speaker 1: able to have that energy and the fact that you

261
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:29,120
Speaker 1: had dancers, and really because I feel like sometimes people

262
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:30,160
Speaker 1: get on stage.

263
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:32,120
Speaker 2: And just walk around back and forth. I don't want

264
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:32,439
Speaker 2: to do it.

265
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:34,480
Speaker 1: If I want to see like some effort from you

266
00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:37,200
Speaker 1: dance because sometimes people are seeing you, are hearing you

267
00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:39,280
Speaker 1: for the first time that's at a show, and that's

268
00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:41,360
Speaker 1: going to make them go and listen to your music

269
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:45,200
Speaker 1: and do research you more or not exactly exactly, Like Okay,

270
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:47,440
Speaker 1: that was you know, so that's dope. And then I

271
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:51,079
Speaker 1: saw you were in Detroit. Oh yes, and use with Trina.

272
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:53,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, shout out to Trina.

273
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:56,679
Speaker 1: So tell me about Trina because you shout her out

274
00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:57,760
Speaker 1: in the song You're the Baddest.

275
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:01,760
Speaker 2: Yes, Tina, tell China she the baddest. Well, we are

276
00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:03,680
Speaker 2: the baddest Trina. Trina knows that now and a lot

277
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:06,199
Speaker 2: of people, A lot of people were coming from me like, oh,

278
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:09,120
Speaker 2: Trina's not gonna like this. But when I met her

279
00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:12,200
Speaker 2: in Detroit, and well, first when she even invited me,

280
00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:16,560
Speaker 2: it was like an invited me. Yes, it's Detroit.

281
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:17,240
Speaker 1: This happened.

282
00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:19,160
Speaker 2: So she reached out to her team, reached out to

283
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:22,079
Speaker 2: my team, and they heard the song and they heard

284
00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:25,240
Speaker 2: me mention her and reference her her moniker, which is

285
00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:28,040
Speaker 2: the baddest bee you know, and she liked it. She

286
00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:30,320
Speaker 2: liked it a lot, so much so that they invited

287
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,319
Speaker 2: me and my team to Detroit with my dancers, and

288
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:36,400
Speaker 2: during her set, she brought me out so nice. She

289
00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:38,200
Speaker 2: was like because she likes to put on for like

290
00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:42,280
Speaker 2: up and coming artists and you know women and women empowerment,

291
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:44,160
Speaker 2: so for her to do that for me when she

292
00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:47,800
Speaker 2: brought me out, I was just so like, whoa like this?

293
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:50,400
Speaker 2: It was a sold out show, Like it was my

294
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 2: first time ever in Detroit. It was a lot going

295
00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:56,000
Speaker 2: through my head. But I just once I hit the stage,

296
00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:59,079
Speaker 2: just like boom, I'm here, and then Trina's co signing

297
00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:01,600
Speaker 2: and this got Trina's name in it. So it's not

298
00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:03,800
Speaker 2: even like it's a jab or anything. It just it

299
00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:06,960
Speaker 2: just felt amazing. And then staying there afterwards and seeing

300
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:10,439
Speaker 2: Rick Ross implies and juvenile. This is the stuff I've

301
00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 2: always done with my dad, right, and to do it

302
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:15,800
Speaker 2: down him there, well, it's like so surreal for me.

303
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 2: Like I was on cloud nine for at least a

304
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:18,600
Speaker 2: week after that.

305
00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:21,520
Speaker 1: Is so amazing. I saw all the pictures. My girl

308
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:28,520
Speaker 1: also because I actually just got back from there today.

309
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:31,160
Speaker 2: Oh wow, so here I am. Welcome back.

00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 2: We did. My mom always tells me the story about

356
00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:39,080
Speaker 2: how we went and met all these people, but I'm like,

357
00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:39,920
Speaker 2: I don't remember.

358
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:42,760
Speaker 1: We didn't have camera phones back there no pictures evident.

359
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:45,640
Speaker 2: I do remember one time going to the Deaf Jam

360
00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:49,480
Speaker 2: building and meeting DMX. I remember that like I could,

361
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:51,600
Speaker 2: like I could step into the room and I'm there

362
00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:54,840
Speaker 2: and it was like a bunch of just guys in

363
00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:57,120
Speaker 2: the room and he's like standing at the head of

364
00:15:57,160 --> 00:16:00,640
Speaker 2: the room like the powerful man that he was, and

365
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:03,480
Speaker 2: it was just very dim and he was just like

366
00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:05,520
Speaker 2: he just seems so assertive to me, like he seems

367
00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:06,680
Speaker 2: scary to me as a kid.

368
00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:10,000
Speaker 1: But I'm like that guy like he commanded the room.

369
00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:12,680
Speaker 2: Yes, all these people is being quiet for him. Yeah,

370
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:14,720
Speaker 2: it's like, hmmm, I might need to find out who

371
00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:15,000
Speaker 2: this is?

372
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:15,320
Speaker 1: Who is that?

373
00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:18,840
Speaker 2: So my dad used to take us around a lot. Yeah,

374
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:19,760
Speaker 2: great memories.

375
00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:23,120
Speaker 1: Do you are there times that you ever like fanned

Speaker 1: and being like, oh my god, yes, who.

378
00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:33,840
Speaker 2: Is so embarrassing? I have one story. It was O Marion.

379

Speaker 2: He was on the phone. He was on the phone

380
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:38,840
Speaker 2: with my dad, and my dad usually did this thing

381
00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 2: where he would call me in and he just gives

382
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:43,280
Speaker 2: me the phone. So I'm like hello, and he's like, hello,

383
00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:45,800
Speaker 2: this is O Marion. I'm like, I say, no, O Marion,

384
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:48,000
Speaker 2: give my dad back the phone. He's like, you don't

385
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:49,720
Speaker 2: want to talk to O Marion. So I picked up on,

386
00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:52,760
Speaker 2: oh Marion, this is you for real? You work with Chrismil.

387
00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:56,760
Speaker 2: So he said, yeah, I just started screaming. I'm like, firstville,

388
00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:58,920
Speaker 2: O Marion, don't want to hear all that screaming. They
