Speaker 2: I've been doing music for a long time. I took
Speaker 2: it seriously in twenty sixteen.
Speaker 5: What got you into music?
Speaker 2: My dad did music, and after he died, I just
Speaker 2: took it seriously. He was about to.
Speaker 8: Sea and you were in depth house as well.
Speaker 2: I was.
Speaker 8: That was that was?
Speaker 2: It was good. You know it was a learning experience. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it was a learning experience.
Speaker 4: Didn't help or hurt you in any way like your music.
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm doing the same thing I was doing before.
Speaker 2: You know, you know it.
Speaker 1: Was okay thing.
Speaker 9: You were You were really teary eyed, and I was
Speaker 9: because like, what was what was that about? It was
Speaker 9: a show where she brings a depth, Anty brings his mom.
Speaker 9: You know, she's discovered some of the biggest and the
Speaker 9: best Nicki Minaj a bunch of people. But she brings
Speaker 9: the rap girls on and she tries to coach them
Speaker 9: through building their careers. And then at the end there's
Speaker 9: one that she picks that she focuses on. You didn't
Speaker 9: make it to the end, but you were on the show. Yeah,
Speaker 9: but one of the clips that I remember seeing going
Speaker 9: viral from you was when you were breaking down.
Speaker 8: You were really upset. Talk about that moment. It is
Speaker 8: with the experience.
Speaker 2: So I just felt like I was put in a Okay,
Speaker 2: so a lot of people said I was being difficult,
Speaker 2: but I feel like I was put in a difficult situation.
Speaker 2: I was in a store. I could fit nothing, you know.
Speaker 2: So when I finally found something that I could fit,
Speaker 2: it was like, oh, that's not a boss, take that off,
Speaker 2: you know. So I felt some type of way, you know.
Speaker 2: But yeah, I just feel like I was put in
Speaker 2: a difficult situation and I was trying. I was seeing
Speaker 2: everybody able to fit things, and you know, I'm getting
Speaker 2: frustrated because I can't find nothing. I don't want to
Speaker 2: make nobody mad. I want to you know, look good
Speaker 2: and stuff like that. So that's why I started crying.
Speaker 2: I was I was a little frustrated.
Speaker 7: You know, just if you walked in and you know,
Speaker 7: you said the chair was too small, so we had
Speaker 7: to bring the part of the sectional for you to
Speaker 7: sit in, and you said something you said, And this
Speaker 7: is what I'm talking about accommodations. Right, we live in
Speaker 7: the world that's not always going to be able to
Speaker 7: accommodate people that we.
Speaker 2: Should though we should because we're not all the same,
Speaker 2: you know, I feel like we should, Like why not.
Speaker 2: I feel like I feel like a lot of times
Speaker 2: people think that bigger people obese, the F word, people
Speaker 2: should just be in a house, when it's like, we're not. Yeah,
Speaker 2: the F word. I'm not saying that word.
Speaker 1: About the gatesler.
Speaker 2: I'm like, I'm competing, but I just feel like it
Speaker 2: should be accommodated. Bigger people should be accommodated, just like
Speaker 2: we accommodate the LGBT community, you know, all those other communities.
Speaker 2: I just feel like we we outside, you know, if
Speaker 2: we inside is get up while you while you in
Speaker 2: a house, you should be doing this, you should be
Speaker 2: doing that when we outside. It's like why why you're
Speaker 2: not in the house.
Speaker 1: Well people would.
Speaker 3: Who actually told you that? Because like that's crazy. I
Speaker 3: don't believe that, you know, F people should stay in
Speaker 3: the house.
Speaker 2: I mean, but I mean that's just that's how it is.
Speaker 2: We go outside and people looking at us crazy, like
Speaker 2: you know, we were getting stared at for what because
Speaker 2: we big?
Speaker 3: You know, like I know a lot of times even
Speaker 3: seeing it like with like how Lizzen although she's lost
Speaker 3: a lot of weight now, you know how it could
Speaker 3: be like some of the clothes that the F people wear,
Speaker 3: you know, where the things is hanging out.
Speaker 4: And y'all, you know, try to well wear the smart don't.
Speaker 2: I don't live in the world where the skinny people
Speaker 2: when the F people, I don't. That's not my reality.
Speaker 2: I am a human being. I am regular, just because
Speaker 2: I'm outside with my my Like I said, I've been
Speaker 2: doing this a long time. And when I said I've
Speaker 2: been doing this a long time, I've been putting on
Speaker 2: for people like me for a long time. I did
Speaker 2: a nicked excuse me, I did a naked photo shoot
Speaker 2: in twenty seventeen. Not all the big girls showing their stomach,
Speaker 2: they showing skin. You know, the people wasn't doing that.
Speaker 2: We had porn stars doing it, but we didn't have
Speaker 2: regular people doing it doing it. I think fel like
Speaker 2: I'm gonna weare of what I want to wear. I'm
Speaker 2: gonna be cute with it too, you.
Speaker 6: Know, I think a lot of I think part of
Speaker 6: it is is like yourself, you're speaking.
Speaker 1: Up about it.
Speaker 6: A lot of bigger people don't speak up about it. Right, Mac,
Speaker 6: who's one of the producers up here, was a lot bigger.
Speaker 5: He lost a lot of weight.
Speaker 6: But I didn't know all the problems that he had
Speaker 6: until he spoke about it, because it's just something that
Speaker 6: you don't think about it. Like he said he would
Speaker 6: get on the plane and it would be difficult, you know.
Speaker 6: He said he would go to the gym, it would
Speaker 6: be difficult. But those are things that we just don't
Speaker 6: think about because I think people don't ever make it
Speaker 6: a thing. So the fact that this interiget happened puts
Speaker 6: it on people's minds, so you can tell what you
Speaker 6: have to deal with it, because you know, these are
Speaker 6: some of the things that we don't have to do
Speaker 6: it again.
Speaker 2: The plane situation, that's not my reality. Anytime I shout
Speaker 2: out to Southwest because they accommodate your people. If you
Speaker 2: need two seats, they're gonna give it to you for free.
Speaker 2: If you pay for two seats, they gonna refund you. Really,
Speaker 2: I don't have that problem, Like like last time I
Speaker 2: went to Delta, they said, Delta charging you might need
Speaker 2: two seats, smell, but we're gonna let you get on
Speaker 2: this time. I never know. I never have a problem
Speaker 2: with my seating when I get on a plane, Like
Speaker 2: I never have problems. Like when I come into a room,
Speaker 2: I demand my respect and I and I'm sweet. I'm
Speaker 2: a nice person. So I feel like people respect that
Speaker 2: I respect you, you respect me. I never like it's
Speaker 2: never an issue with me. Like the issue be when
Speaker 2: people when like the staring or the judging or you know,
Speaker 2: stuff like that, and then a lot of people will
Speaker 2: look at me and be like, oh, she just she eats,
Speaker 2: she do this, she do that all the time. That's
Speaker 2: not my reality either, Like I do eat, but I
Speaker 2: don't just sit down. I don't just I'm not six
Speaker 2: touch a pound life. That's not my life, you know.
Speaker 3: I think it's more so like coming from a health
Speaker 3: standpoint too, than you feel me like you have you
Speaker 3: ever had anybody that that, like one of your friends,
Speaker 3: maybe that try to get you, like help you to
Speaker 3: lose weight or you know, or fear for your life,
Speaker 3: you know, or like.
Speaker 2: I really don't, Yes, I do. I really don't. No,
Speaker 2: I didn't say that. I really don't have friends, for
Speaker 2: I have like family and people that's been around me
Speaker 2: for a long time. Me and my cousins. We go
Speaker 2: to the gym. I got a jump at my house.
Speaker 2: I go to the gym. You know, I got workout videos.
Speaker 8: Specialists here with you recently, right.
Speaker 2: Yeah, congrat But people be forgetting like when I was little,
Speaker 2: I wasn't skinny. My brothers are skinny. My brother I
Speaker 2: grew up with two skinny.
Speaker 4: Brothers like when you were younger.
Speaker 2: Yes, I was never I was never small. You know,
Speaker 2: I was okay.
Speaker 1: When you came up. Remember when I did what when
Speaker 1: you came up a rapper?
Speaker 2: I don't know, but I don't know. But I had
Speaker 2: a lot of baby fat on me, like you see
Speaker 2: some pictures. I had baby fat. But I was really active.
Speaker 10: You know.
Speaker 2: I did plays, I did singing, and I did cheering,
Speaker 2: and you know I did stuff like that. I was
Speaker 2: just a big baby you know, and see, I like
Speaker 2: I like.
Speaker 3: Big babies because like the skinny babies, they be a
Speaker 3: little too corporate for me.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but sometimes it could be cute, but it's gonna
Speaker 2: stick on them and it's gone, you know it. It
Speaker 2: could stick on them.
Speaker 1: But you always look like a baby when you tell me, though,
Speaker 1: no matter how old you get.
Speaker 4: Yeah, my, you have a baby face.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: My parents date, they did all they could. Like my
Speaker 2: brothers were skinny. I grew up with skinny kids. Before
Speaker 2: my dad died, they kept me in the hospital for
Speaker 2: like a few months, and I actually did get down.
Speaker 2: I got down to almost three hundred pounds. After my
Speaker 2: dad died, I gained one hundred and fifty pounds plus more. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I don't know what was going on. I just know
Speaker 2: I was taking care of my mama and my brothers,
Speaker 2: and I was doing me. I was in the streets
Speaker 2: and I was just trying to make sure everything was okay.
Speaker 2: Then one day I went to the doctor. But look,
Speaker 2: though y'all want to know, it's crazy. I got up
Speaker 2: to like five ninety eight and I didn't even know.
Speaker 2: But I was still doing stuff that I thought I
Speaker 2: could do. Like I was still trying to go to
Speaker 2: the gym, still trying to walk around and stuff like that.
Speaker 2: I realized it was a problem when I just I
Speaker 2: couldn't do what I used to do no more, and
Speaker 2: I'm breathing like like but my I could put my
Speaker 2: own shoes on or whatever, but it's it was harder.
Speaker 2: I didn't want to get up, but I pushed myself
Speaker 2: to get up. You know. When I started feeling like, dang,
Speaker 2: I gotta push myself to get up, I went to
Speaker 2: the doctor. I was fine ninety eight. I said, oh,
Speaker 2: hell no, as I told my Mama's like my I'm
Speaker 2: never gonna get to six hundred punds and I get
Speaker 2: to say, schunch of prowess, I'm gonna give up. So
Speaker 2: when I was fine ninety eight, I said, on all.
Speaker 7: And I'm sure doctors have told you, like you need
Speaker 7: to probably lose weight for health, of.
Speaker 2: Course, of course. But the funny thing is, every time
Speaker 2: I go to the hospital and I get test ran,
Speaker 2: it's like there's nothing like as far as high cholesterol,
Speaker 2: you know, like the typical what people think audio. Even
Speaker 2: though my dad died from a heart attack, it's runs
Speaker 2: of his family, you know, stuff like that. Blood issues
Speaker 2: running our family, but I never you know.
Speaker 1: But thyroid they're giving you.
Speaker 2: Trying to figure it out. We're gonna weight twenty nine.
Speaker 1: Twenty nine.
Speaker 2: I was what to say because I have a Yeah,
Speaker 2: I was gonna say that I have a friend.
Speaker 9: That deals with thyroids and she also has a lot
Speaker 9: of trouble keeping weight down, like a lot of It's
Speaker 9: like a big thing for her. She's done multiple surgeries too,
Speaker 9: and she still gains the weight back because with the thyroids.
Speaker 5: Yeah, so let me ask you a question. So you said
Speaker 5: you do want to lose the weight, what what are
Speaker 5: you doing to lose it? And do you mind? And
Speaker 5: the reason I asked to your mine is tickets to
Speaker 5: Big Mac. Again. Big Mac lost about what one hundred
Speaker 5: and fifty pounds.
Speaker 1: I'm not sure he lost a lot.
Speaker 6: He lost somebody visually, but he's not he's not happy
Speaker 6: in his skin. He was happy and when he was bigger,
Speaker 6: like more excited. Say he's not happy because he got
Speaker 6: too much skin. Now, like you know how you lose
Speaker 6: weight in the skins.
Speaker 5: He just said he feels better, want to be big,
Speaker 5: he wants to be bigger.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, you know he did he's that he wants
Speaker 6: to be bigger, like it doesn't feel like he is himself.
Speaker 2: Understanding that because I want to get like smaller, because
Speaker 2: I want to do more things as far as like
Speaker 2: being out of breath too fast, because I'm really active
Speaker 2: for my size, Like I like to do a lot
Speaker 2: of stuff, but I can throw. That was like twenty seventeen.
Speaker 10: That was it was.
Speaker 2: It was real cute though, clear up.

Speaker 2: It was five of us. For that, I lived in
Speaker 2: a family with five of us. My dad was big,
Speaker 2: my mom was a little big. Then it was three
Speaker 2: of us. We drove a pt cruiser. We was all

Speaker 2: Okay, it happened. I'm trying to tell y'all it happened. No, No,
Speaker 2: that's not why I got mad. I felt like I
Speaker 2: should have been accommodated. That's not why I got mad.
Speaker 2: I couldn't believe that ship and that's not the that's
Speaker 2: not the like like accommodate me. That like I said,
Speaker 2: that was the first time that she happened to me,
Speaker 2: Because if it wasn't, I would have been comfortable. I
Speaker 2: would have called another live. You know, I just couldn't
Speaker 2: believe it. Like I was just like, damn for real, Okay,
Speaker 2: so I need to see this.
Speaker 3: I do believe you about the micro. I do believe
Speaker 3: you about the the PT Cruiser. But how long did
Speaker 3: that car last?
Speaker 2: Kids? Wait, it lasts a minute because we had it
Speaker 2: when I was in high school and when I was
Speaker 2: going to graduate. Yeah, when I was I was big
Speaker 2: though I was like five thirty two. I was always big. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I was five thirty two in high school.
Speaker 6: To break down the incident of what happened now for
Speaker 6: for people that don't know they heard me.
Speaker 2: I was getting ready for my cousin's watch party the
Speaker 2: Lions game or whatever, and I ended up ordering me
Speaker 2: a lyft you know.

Speaker 9: The first time, and you normally order because I know
Speaker 9: one of the things too. People like there was conversation like, well,
Speaker 9: she should have ordered a bigger car like the XL
Speaker 9: whatever you normally ordered the regular car.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I always ordered the regular cars. And I feel
Speaker 2: like I don't have to order an Uber XL or
Speaker 2: a Lift XL. I feel like I don't have to
Speaker 2: do that, like that Satame car was a mistake.
Speaker 5: Them to my brother.
Speaker 12: The same car with the Mercedes, and it's the same
Speaker 12: car that her best friend has and she rides in
Speaker 12: that same exact car. That's why when she saw that car,

Speaker 1: though yes, I can't.
Speaker 2: Run back both. I came here on the bike, the.
Speaker 6: Bike now you got Now the world is cool. And
Speaker 6: I know you got those jokes and everybody was joking you.
Speaker 6: But how are you because of that? Because you know,
Speaker 6: it has to be emotional distress, it has to be problems.
Speaker 6: It had to make you hit it differently, or are
Speaker 6: you I.
Speaker 2: Just feel like the thing that bothered me for real,
Speaker 2: that made me make that videos because they kept on
Speaker 2: saying I got the man fired. I never contacted them,
Speaker 2: I never did nothing. I never did none of that.
Speaker 2: I left him alone. I did what I had to do.
Speaker 2: But when it comes to the comments and stuff like that,
Speaker 2: I've been going through this all my life. You know,
Speaker 2: it's nothing new to me. I don't feel like I
Speaker 2: need to overstimulate myself with the comments or respond. For real,
Speaker 2: my favorite get back is yo, mama, or oh you
Speaker 2: know but I barely yeah.
Speaker 12: Oh.
Speaker 2: It was like, oh, you you should have just or
Speaker 2: you should have did this or that, or you need
Speaker 2: to go to the gym. I just like, oh, you know,
Speaker 2: I feel like I feel like I got very tough
Speaker 2: skin because at the end of the end of the day,
Speaker 2: I have to be Dank and the world know me
Speaker 2: as Dank. They don't know me as Desa. They're getting
Speaker 2: to know Dja because I'm everywhere as Daja now, but
Speaker 2: I feel like Deja is at home. Thank it's for y'all,
Speaker 2: you know. So when I've seen this, you know, and
Speaker 2: Jess was like, oh, she gonna make a video bottles,
Speaker 2: I said, no, I want to talk to y'all, you know,
Speaker 2: because y'all don't know me.
Speaker 12: You know.
Speaker 7: So you said something earlier, you know, you compared your
Speaker 7: situation to the lgbt Q, and a lot of people
Speaker 7: would say, well, LGBTQ people don't have a choice to
Speaker 7: be gay or whatever, but you have a choice to
Speaker 7: be plus size. So they want you to make better choices.
Speaker 7: Eat right, work out, lose the weight.
Speaker 2: I feel like I feel like I did people.
Speaker 7: Debate right that is, but you know, let's just hypothetically say.
Speaker 2: I feel like I do. I work on myself, you know,
Speaker 2: and when I feel like I'm getting is getting too much,
Speaker 2: I try to fix it, you know, like at you know.
Speaker 1: But you know, yeah, we have waste specialists.
Speaker 10: Right here?
Speaker 1: Is her a waste specialist? Fix?
Speaker 5: What's your name?
Speaker 7: Ma'am stormy stormy and descend right, not the stormy one time.
Speaker 7: You know, when you have these conversations with with with
Speaker 7: plus sized people, it always comes up that, oh, well,
Speaker 7: everybody that's you know, big, isn't unhealthy, and you know
Speaker 7: some people just can't lose the way they're dealing with
Speaker 7: is shees like you know, she has a thyroid?
Speaker 1: What do you talk to us about that?
Speaker 13: So I been danked provider for a little over three months, right,
Speaker 13: and she's lost eighty pounds yo, eighty pounds go look
Speaker 13: different from her eighty pounds right because she started at
Speaker 13: three five eighty. So even with her being at five hundred,
Speaker 13: people be like, she's still not losing, but that's not
Speaker 13: the case. Well, her thyroid makes it very difficult for
Speaker 13: her to lose weight because her.
Speaker 10: Hormones is unbalanced.
Speaker 13: So when your hormones is unbalanced and they're all over
Speaker 13: the place, it controls a lot of things and it
Speaker 13: makes it very difficult for you to lose weight but
Speaker 13: keep it off as well. So I think for her,
Speaker 13: she she's consistent because she didn't lost eddy pounds, right,
Speaker 13: but it's hard.
Speaker 1: And she's too big for surgery.
Speaker 5: Do you suggest surgery, So we're gonna.
Speaker 10: Try surgery after she she has to reach at least.
Speaker 13: Three hundred, so that's our goal three hundred. Get her
Speaker 13: down to three hundred, and then she'll do her surgery.
Speaker 7: Always I always told Max I would get inim the surgery,
Speaker 7: but he had to get to a certain weight.
Speaker 1: So once he gets down, if you want to get
Speaker 1: the surgery, you know what.
Speaker 5: Surgery would you suggest? It's a waste of the sleeve,
Speaker 5: the sleeve.
Speaker 10: The gas strict sleeve or the gastric bypath.
Speaker 5: Now can the sleeve bust you? Sometimes you hear about
Speaker 5: the sleeve.
Speaker 10: It's complications with those two.
Speaker 13: So that's why we're just trying to find a more
Speaker 13: safe alternative routes. But we got to get her down
Speaker 13: a little bit because you don't want all that fat
Speaker 13: around her heart.
Speaker 10: Right, and once she go into surgery.
Speaker 5: Now what is she doing to lose the weight? Like,
Speaker 5: what's the procedures? You know, break it down for us.
Speaker 10: So she's on medical weight loss.
Speaker 13: She's on semaglue tide on, which is sort of like
Speaker 13: ozempic but with milder side effects. So she comes to
Speaker 13: our spot every week to get her injections and then
Speaker 13: she's on our weight are supplements on which we formulated
Speaker 13: with the pharmacists to help her with her multi vitamin
Speaker 13: and just keeping her every day nutrition going.
Speaker 7: Once you get a man like to scratch you out,
Speaker 7: you in de troits a lot of the niggas, I
Speaker 7: can stress you out.
Speaker 2: I'm good, I'm focused, I'm straight.
Speaker 4: But look, so she does she needs I'm sorry, what's
Speaker 4: your name, Stormy? Stormy? Yeah? Does she need absolutely need
Speaker 4: the surgery? I mean, I know some.
Speaker 3: People they work to lose weight and then they they
Speaker 3: figured since they are already working out, they just keep
Speaker 3: on working out. Like, she don't absolutely have to have
Speaker 3: the surgery, right.
Speaker 10: No, No, she don't have to have the surgery.
Speaker 13: I tell her when she gets to that three hundred,
Speaker 13: go by how you look and how you feel, because
Speaker 13: that's a big jump from six hundred or five eighty
Speaker 13: two to three hundred pounds.
Speaker 10: That's a whole another half of She.
Speaker 1: Exactly something she could.
Speaker 7: What are some things that anybody her size can do
Speaker 7: to lose weight healthily?
Speaker 10: So you want to watch your carb intake.
Speaker 13: All your carbs turn into sugar, right, of course your
Speaker 13: sugar intake you want to increase your water. A lot
Speaker 13: of people don't drink water, and a lot of people
Speaker 13: got detox issues. They gut ain't healthy. So you got
Speaker 13: to get your gut healthy before you even try to
Speaker 13: lose weight, because it's just sitting there them taxing is
Speaker 13: just sitting there.
Speaker 10: So I think that was the major three. And it's
Speaker 10: a mindset thing. If you not mentally prepared to lose
Speaker 10: weight or mentally prepared to go all in with your
Speaker 10: healthy your wellness, you're not gonna do it.
Speaker 9: That's why when you said you said, yeah, I'm her
Speaker 9: mental like, and I was like, wait, what's going on?
Speaker 9: I thought something was happening to her. I'm like, why
Speaker 9: the nurse is here? But what on the mental side
Speaker 9: of things? I just know what she's eating and physically
Speaker 9: what she's doing. What do you guys talk through she
Speaker 9: like I said, like, got to get her mindset together.
Speaker 10: Even like with this this a big transition with the
Speaker 10: lift and everything. This can set her back.
Speaker 13: She can go into a whole depression when now she
Speaker 13: want to eat, She don't want to come to the
Speaker 13: spot again her injections. So for me, as her provider,
Speaker 13: I need to make sure her mindset is right, Like
Speaker 13: she says, she's been going through this she was little.
Speaker 10: But it don't make it right now.
Speaker 6: Doesn't insurance cover this or do you have to come
Speaker 6: out of your pocket? Because that's another thing that could
Speaker 6: affect people as well, because they can't afford it.
Speaker 13: It's a lot of out of pocket, a lot of
Speaker 13: a lot of insurances won't pay for it, so they'll
Speaker 13: wait till you get the high blood pressure of diabetes
Speaker 13: to pay for the medicine. So it's a lot of
Speaker 13: people who can't afford it.
Speaker 7: And that's what I'm more concerned about than anything, you
Speaker 7: know what I mean. Whenever I see people of his size,
Speaker 7: you know, people like to say I'm a fast shame.
Speaker 7: I'm not a fast shame. I'm just a person that
Speaker 7: wants to see people healthy, right, people live.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 7: It's like you seem like a very talented person. You've
Speaker 7: got a great personality. I can feel your aura as
Speaker 7: I'm sitting here. I want you to live a long time,
Speaker 7: not like my life is promised tomorrow, you know what
Speaker 7: I mean, But I want to I try to do
Speaker 7: things to prolong my life as much as possible, and
Speaker 7: I'd like to see people like you do the same
Speaker 7: when he said.
Speaker 8: He's not a fast shame when you look, you don't.
Speaker 4: Believe him, just like.
Speaker 5: I'm here.
Speaker 2: So it's like, I mean, that's that's I don't like
Speaker 2: that joke, be honest, Like, I don't know, like why
Speaker 2: would I like that joke? I mean because I'll be
Speaker 2: laughing at the ship.
Speaker 7: Some people say to me, you'd.
Speaker 2: Be funny, but it don't mean that I like it.
Speaker 8: Somebody had said to you that you laughed at.
Speaker 2: I don't know, but I know I just laugh at
Speaker 2: a lot of stuff sometimes. I mean, like this, look
Speaker 2: what they said, or I can't I don't know.
Speaker 7: What about if somebody said you battle rapping and they
Speaker 7: say it's a twenty V one, but it's just you
Speaker 7: and another.
Speaker 2: Person, I'll probably be like what they mean?
Speaker 4: Has a car ever pulled up and he was like,
Speaker 4: I know my bigs ain't getting in there.
Speaker 5: No that happened.
Speaker 2: No, God, just I swear. I don't think like that,
Speaker 2: Like I said in a like I said in an interview,
Speaker 2: I don't have a big person head, like.
Speaker 11: I don't know, I don't have a big person in mind,
Speaker 11: saying I'm skinny in my head skinny, Like.
Speaker 12: If it was for one hundred and twenty five pound
Speaker 12: bad drunk bitches, he would have let they ask, and
Speaker 12: he would they asked, and that's five hundred right there.
Speaker 2: When the gym, I feel like I'm already skinny. Like
Speaker 2: that motivates me, like I go on a gym like this.
Speaker 8: It happened.
Speaker 7: He just made a damn good point. He said, if
Speaker 7: it was four or five one hundred bad one hundred
Speaker 7: pounds women plus you know.
Speaker 12: One hundred and twenty five pounds back and they get
Speaker 12: in their drunk belligerent.
Speaker 14: He's going to say, good thing, girlssage for you.
Speaker 8: And put their little leg lights on.
Speaker 5: When did you get comfortable in your skin?
Speaker 15: Right?
Speaker 6: Because you wear whatever you want to wear, you don't
Speaker 6: care what people say.
Speaker 5: So when did you get that comfortable?
Speaker 2: I I feel like it, No, it was before that, girl.
Speaker 8: I just feel like, when did you make the only fans?
Speaker 8: Was that when you were comfortable?
Speaker 2: When did I make the only fans? I probably made
Speaker 2: that like a couple of years ago. But when I
Speaker 2: got comfortable in my skin It started as a kid,
Speaker 2: because like when I would get ready for school and
Speaker 2: if I had on a big shirt on or something.
Speaker 2: I just look crazy. My daddy'd be like, you look good,
Speaker 2: baby girl, or you you beautiful baby girl. Look my
Speaker 2: mama be like, girl, take that ship off, Take that off.
Speaker 12: You know.
Speaker 2: But I feel like it started at a young age because,
Speaker 2: like I said, I used to get picked on. I
Speaker 2: used to fight all the time. So they made sure
Speaker 2: I felt good within myself. So no, and I really
Speaker 2: started like popping out of my sheld in college.
Speaker 6: And you said you got only fans I do.
Speaker 2: No, y'all just gonna have to go than the mom.
Speaker 4: You know, money coming, get them stay on my pocket.
Speaker 1: Where did you used to shop when?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 2: I never. I don't shop at big people places like
Speaker 2: I don't in my head.
Speaker 1: Some adjustment, you know.
Speaker 2: And I got me a little sewing machine. You know.
Speaker 2: I like to do that.
Speaker 1: Do you get mad at the clothing?
Speaker 7: No?
Speaker 2: I don't, because if I feel like, I buy clothes
Speaker 2: that I want to wear when I get smaller, like
Speaker 2: I got clothes with tags on it. You know that
Speaker 2: that's my motivation? You know that's right? Yeah?
Speaker 7: Has this this situation helped hurt your music career? Because
Speaker 7: I don't want you to become a novelty big.
Speaker 2: I feel like I am going wherever God takes me.
Speaker 2: I feel like if this was his plan, it was
Speaker 2: his plan manifest everything. I didn't know that it would.
Speaker 2: I would have to go through what I'm going through
Speaker 2: right now to be where I'm at. But it helps.
Speaker 2: It helped my streaming a lot of people. It's negative,
Speaker 2: but I don't whatever. People gonna be negative, you know.
Speaker 4: And that's whether you were skinny, medium.
Speaker 2: They're gonna talk about me when I get small too.
Speaker 2: But it's cool.
Speaker 1: So you want to get small, that is the goal.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I don't want to get too small.
Speaker 5: I'm short, so please please Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm like five feet so even if I was
Speaker 2: to lose like another hundred pounds, I'm gonna still be big.
Speaker 6: You're still talking to Charlamagne now, So it's I'm five
Speaker 6: six you five six, freaking life.
Speaker 2: But I just want to be.
Speaker 1: Mind.
Speaker 7: Are you worried that people will only identify Big Dank
Speaker 7: from her physical appearance and won't ever really take your
Speaker 7: music serious?
Speaker 2: No? Because I make good music. I make beautiful music.
Speaker 2: I sing, I wrap, I write for people, probably some people,
Speaker 2: y'all heard, right. I feel like I am a great artist,
Speaker 2: so I don't you know. But even when I get smaller,
Speaker 2: I'm still gonna be a big dang.
Speaker 7: I mean, you're right, nobody should have to deal with
Speaker 7: what you had to deal with. I do feel I
Speaker 7: do have empathy for both of you and the lyft
Speaker 7: driver though, But Keys brought up a good point. If
Speaker 7: it was for five hundred and fifty pound people, he
Speaker 7: probably would have found a way. So that does make
Speaker 7: me look at things a little bit different. But I
Speaker 7: can understand why he would feel that way.
Speaker 1: When he pulled up. He just didn't know.
Speaker 7: I don't think he meant any harm by it. He
Speaker 7: didn't and he don't. I don't feel like he was disrespectful.
Speaker 7: Do you feel like he was disrespectful?
Speaker 2: I just felt like it was no effort. I don't
Speaker 2: feel I mean, I feel like it was just no effort.
Speaker 2: I just really couldn't believe that that the dad had happened.
Speaker 2: He was saying that, you know.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't.
Speaker 2: I don't fought him, but I do fought the company
Speaker 2: because it's like, this is what you're allowing. Because when
Speaker 2: I did share my story with it with the world,
Speaker 2: a lot of people came to me and said they
Speaker 2: did that to them too. Even LIFT drivers reached out
Speaker 2: to me, like, we're not supposed to do that. I
Speaker 2: would never did that to you, you know.
Speaker 5: You know, you think it was more of an understanding.
Speaker 7: That in the area, they're like that notorious fasts no.
Speaker 5: Members, you understand.
Speaker 12: For the record, they never Lift never issued a statement
Speaker 12: saying he was fired or they're not contracted with him.
Speaker 6: Lift apologize that they reach out to They tried to,
Speaker 6: but it's like.
Speaker 9: So they did try to contact you directly and you
Speaker 9: didn't want to take the car one up.
Speaker 2: Because I don't. I don't want to, you know, And
Speaker 2: I feel like y'all need to make change to y'all know,
Speaker 2: I don't want to talk.
Speaker 1: What do you want them to change?
Speaker 2: I want them at least to like accommodate, you know.
Speaker 2: I feel like we shouldn't have to pay more for
Speaker 2: uber x steal or something like that. And I also
Speaker 2: feel like they need to be checking their workers cars
Speaker 2: to make sure, you know, they never want with the
Speaker 2: tires it's not squeaking or anything like that. I just
Speaker 2: feel like it should be like are you over this
Speaker 2: weight or you know, they see the car, you know,
Speaker 2: because we wouldn't have.
Speaker 4: To go through that like in the ad before you order.
Speaker 2: Because a lot of people they don't want to show
Speaker 2: their whole body.
Speaker 5: Would you feel comfortable though, if they say, well, what's
Speaker 5: your weight?
Speaker 6: Because they do, Like if you really think about if
Speaker 6: you order a lift or uber, they'll say do you
Speaker 6: need a baby seat?
Speaker 5: They say do you need you? You know, have an adam?
Speaker 1: If you put how much?
Speaker 6: How much for you put forty nine?
Speaker 1: And then it's just denied, denied, not like I.
Speaker 2: Feel like, yeah I would because what like you live?
Speaker 1: Why would that?
Speaker 15: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Why would you deny me? You know, you asked me
Speaker 2: how much I you know, so that means you should
Speaker 2: have something for me. But I just feel like I
Speaker 2: could fit in any car, and I know I can't
Speaker 2: because any car that need I think.
Speaker 1: I keep saying I can't. You're not fat, mind, but
Speaker 1: that's not really.
Speaker 2: I'm a hopping, I'm skipping. I ain't running, but I do.
Speaker 1: To the front right now? You cannot get it?
Speaker 2: Where is it?
Speaker 1: I got a little price? Imagine question you said that
Speaker 1: the word the word fat is a slur. Yes, How
Speaker 1: do you feel.
Speaker 2: Growing up? Because I was the only bigger person, bigger
Speaker 2: child in my household? We couldn't say that.
Speaker 1: How do you feel about the term big backs?
Speaker 2: I just feel like, well, it's it's it's cute.
Speaker 15: You know, we do have I do have a big
Speaker 15: back a team.
Speaker 1: So he.
Speaker 7: So he the one making all the jokes run now.
Speaker 2: He spent fire.
Speaker 8: Y'all, did you did you try to after this happened?
Speaker 8: What you would live?
Speaker 1: Did you try to?
Speaker 8: I guess for like the lawsuit or proving purposes.
Speaker 9: I don't know if this is the thing that y'all do,
Speaker 9: like order the same car, but be like uber or
Speaker 9: something and see I they would treat you differently, Like, no.
Speaker 2: It's because it's not a game to me, I'm not
Speaker 2: trying to figure. I'm not trying to surround. Yeah, this
Speaker 2: really happened to me. Like, it's not a joke to me.
Speaker 2: It might be a joke to everybody. Everybody might, oh,
Speaker 2: she did this for cloud. She did Like I said,
Speaker 2: I've been the Cloud. I am the Cloud. I've been
Speaker 2: doing this for a long time. You know, it's not
Speaker 2: a game. It's not a joke to me, Like, I
Speaker 2: really feel like it should be changed.
Speaker 1: And you didn't even report the guy.
Speaker 2: I didn't report him. I didn't I didn't do none
Speaker 2: of that.
Speaker 12: That's why he just said.
Speaker 2: And it's funny because before I post, when I posted,
Speaker 2: everybody like you, oh, you need a you need to
Speaker 2: do this, you need to do that. Lawyers, lawyers, lawyers, lawyers.
Speaker 2: But when I got a lawyer, it's like, oh, you're wrong.
Speaker 5: What I'm.
Speaker 2: In that's the internet. And I've been dealing with the
Speaker 2: Internet for a long time. That's why I can. I
Speaker 2: can be daja and I can be date.
Speaker 6: So you so, just so for people know, you're not
Speaker 6: suing the individual, you're suing the corporate company for discrimination
Speaker 6: weight discrimination.
Speaker 7: She claims, uh, I'm looking at it, and now claims
Speaker 7: because of the refusal she suffers stressed, humiliation, embarrassment, outraged,
Speaker 7: mental anguish, fear and mortification, emotional damages, economic damages, non
Speaker 7: economic damages.
Speaker 1: What is that.
Speaker 5: That's the lawyer, that's the attorney.
Speaker 7: Attorney, fees and costs, and they left it open for
Speaker 7: other damages to be discovered. Issuing lift and John do
Speaker 7: the lift driver, and you're going from your house to
Speaker 7: a party at your cousin's house, okay, And it says
Speaker 7: under law, refusing someone's transportation due to their weight is
Speaker 7: no different than racial or religious discrimination.
Speaker 1: According to her attorneys, John.
Speaker 8: Doe is listed on the lawsuit. But you're saying you
Speaker 8: don't want to suit the lift driver.
Speaker 1: We're gonna.
Speaker 7: Yeah, because I'm m hm, I ain't never mad, and
Speaker 7: nobody's doing the corporate you know, to get a check.
Speaker 2: You know, it's not about a check. So I won't change.
Speaker 2: I keep I keep telling that.
Speaker 1: But to get skinny on these old day.
Speaker 2: When I get skinny, I'm still gonna be the same person,
Speaker 2: you know. And it's like I don't even want to
Speaker 2: I don't want to get skinny. I just want to
Speaker 2: get comfortable. I want to get to a place where
Speaker 2: it's like, you know, I got nephews, like I take
Speaker 2: them to the park, is like they running off. It's like,
Speaker 2: damn bro like like I'm tired, CC tired, baby CT
Speaker 2: is tied.
Speaker 4: There's one thing about it.
Speaker 3: Skinny don't always mean healthy.
Speaker 1: Fact. Yeah, I guess, listen, I get it.
Speaker 7: I totally understand, and I mean I do want the
Speaker 7: best for you in this situation. And I think it's
Speaker 7: dope that you are actively trying to lose weight, because
Speaker 7: I think a lot of times what people do is
Speaker 7: they try to act like you know, being plus size.
Speaker 1: Is okay, And I'm not saying it's not okay. But
Speaker 1: you know that you can do better what I'm trying.
Speaker 2: And that's that's the thing. Like I'm not advertising staying
Speaker 2: oh b staying big, standing up BBW. I'm not advertising that.
Speaker 2: What I'm advertising is being comfortable in your skin while
Speaker 2: doing what you gotta do to get where you want
Speaker 2: to be. I'm not yes, Beef, I was about to
Speaker 2: say that yes, we big, yes please, That's not what
Speaker 2: I'm doing. What I'm saying is yay, do do what
Speaker 2: you gotta do, but still be comfortable within your skin.
Speaker 2: Because if I'm not comfortable, I can't focus on the goal.
Speaker 2: You know, I can't because on the goal if I'm
Speaker 2: not comfortable with my body.
Speaker 4: Like so, I mean you say the F word in
Speaker 4: your songs?
Speaker 5: No, no, no, okay, I mean.
Speaker 1: You talking about SO.
