36
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:34,640
Speaker 5: it's going twenty four years. So to be consistent for

37
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:40,200
Speaker 5: twenty four years, that's that's a lot. And I love

38
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,640
Speaker 5: all the girls you guess out today. When I started,

39
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,400
Speaker 5: it was maybe like six of us or something, maybe

40
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 5: seven at the most at the same time, and now

41
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:52,760
Speaker 5: it's almost one hundred girls. Yeah, Like it's so many

42
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:56,360
Speaker 5: female artists and just different, you know. And I just

43
00:01:56,400 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 5: feel like that consistency, that consistency is a key power

44
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:05,840
Speaker 5: to stay on your game in the game. And yeah,

45
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:07,920
Speaker 5: it's changed a lot, you know, social media all this

46
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:10,480
Speaker 5: stuff has changed. So it just got you just got

47
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:12,840
Speaker 5: to find that energy to just kind of like find

48
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:14,799
Speaker 5: your path and navigate that through your music.

49
00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:15,079
Speaker 4: You know.

50
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:17,920
Speaker 6: So talk to us and tell us what it was

51
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 6: like growing up in Day County.

52
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:25,240
Speaker 5: That was the best Miami. Like everybody wants to come

53
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:29,160
Speaker 5: to Miami, but Miami where I grew up, that's Liberty City.

54
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,799
Speaker 5: That's the real Miami. Right, It's not South Beach, that's

55
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 5: not Miami Beach and none of that. That's like the hood.

56
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:36,600
Speaker 5: That's the rich time. Yeah, that's when you go get

57
00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:38,880
Speaker 5: down and dirty. Yes, but it was just a great place.

58
00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:40,840
Speaker 5: You know, It's Miami was just fun. It's hot all

59
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 5: the time. You know. It was always parties, music, just

60
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:46,480
Speaker 5: all kind of stuff. And when I was real real

61
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:48,920
Speaker 5: young growing up, like you know, before we was able

62
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:51,520
Speaker 5: to go to like a club or like see, we

63
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:53,680
Speaker 5: didn't really have like I don't remember. We didn't have

64
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 5: like house party kind of vibes. It was more like

65
00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 5: clubs and you know or whatever. But if you couldn't

66
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 5: go that where Luke came in and paid the big

67
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 5: played a big part because he had the Pat Jam,

68
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:06,920
Speaker 5: which is for teenagers. Was that that was just a

69
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:10,520
Speaker 5: club for teenagers, like from fourteen to like I think

70
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:13,520
Speaker 5: seventeen or eighteen, you had to you couldn't. It was

71
00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:17,799
Speaker 5: no drinking or nothing. It was just chips and not slacks.

72
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:19,920
Speaker 5: And so it was the place where like So what

73
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 5: it was is DJs. They'll have like two sets of DJs,

74
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:25,400
Speaker 5: and DJ's will come out and bring all these big

75
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 5: speakers and they like dotting it out in the in

76
00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 5: the space, and so one side is playing something, then

77
00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:32,560
Speaker 5: they'll stop, they'll play. So that's what we did growing up.

78
00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 5: So that was our excitement, like having fun. So and

79
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 5: it's Miami, so you know, it's always the beach and

80
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 5: always that kind of stuff. But that was the real

81
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:40,760
Speaker 5: choice of it.

82
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:43,240
Speaker 2: Okay, what you think your mark on the game is like,

83
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:44,320
Speaker 2: that's train of shit.

84
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:48,920
Speaker 5: I feel like it's stamped, you know everything. It paved

85
00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 5: the way for a lot of the girls that's out today,

86
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 5: a lot of new artists, a lot of girls to

87
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:55,040
Speaker 5: feel confident. You feel like they could pop their ship

88
00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:58,640
Speaker 5: and you know, do their thing. And you know, these

89
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 5: girls everybody come from differ, diferent places. When I look

90
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 5: at the music today and all the new artists, they

91
00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:06,400
Speaker 5: come from different places, different backgrounds, different struggles, you know,

92
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,280
Speaker 5: different you know situations that I came from. And to

93
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:12,560
Speaker 5: see them get in the game and navigate and say

94
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:14,960
Speaker 5: I got a record and just probably a month ago,

95
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 5: I was nobody, just a girl from my hood or

96
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,720
Speaker 5: from my cityo or working at a drive through or

97
00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 5: a club or whatever. But now oh it's viral, it's

98
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 5: social media. It's different ways to be an artist put

99
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 5: out music. You ain't got a shop a demo or

100
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 5: go to a record label and try to shop a deal.

101
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:32,640
Speaker 5: All you got to do is get a way to

102
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 5: put your music together and put it up. And then

103
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 5: you put out a banger and everybody's on that. So

104
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 5: I just look at it. I like that. I love

105
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:41,680
Speaker 5: that it's like raw and fresh like that. You know,

106
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:44,640
Speaker 5: it's hard though for women, honestly, they need to watch.

107
00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:49,400
Speaker 5: It's not an easy thing because again, we require way

108
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:52,719
Speaker 5: too much, a lot of clam and all the stuff

109
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:55,000
Speaker 5: that comes with us. So when it comes to like

110
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:58,240
Speaker 5: that and being consistent and you know, wanting to put

111
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 5: out content or videos and now everything is and everything

112
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 5: is you, you we need to see it like what you

113
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:05,839
Speaker 5: in your car, even if it's walking down the street,

114
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 5: you've got you feel me and so so you know,

115
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:09,919
Speaker 5: just to be that consistent, that's investing in yourself. Youve

116
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:11,920
Speaker 5: got to spend money on that. You guys, you can

117
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:14,640
Speaker 5: put on a shirt, jeans or whatever. Girls gotta get

118
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,599
Speaker 5: all done up. So just invest like into yourself. That's

119
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 5: a power point in making it in this game. You

120
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:22,920
Speaker 5: just gotta find strategy stick to that.

121
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,400
Speaker 2: What you think women artists in a year ongoing.

122
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 5: Clam Yeah, uh, you know, honestly a lot. I'm gonna

123
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,600
Speaker 5: be honest, like just realistically, Like last year, I think

124
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 5: that spend like one hundred and twenty five thousand dollars

125
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:38,920
Speaker 5: and that's just makeup that's not here. And stylist that's makeup.

126
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:40,960
Speaker 5: That's just make up.

127
00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:43,440
Speaker 1: Damn. So that's their jury, that's our jury. Basically.

128
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:48,720
Speaker 5: Basically, that's you got to really like figure out your

129
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:51,400
Speaker 5: plan in order to like manifest your look. It's all

130
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:54,440
Speaker 5: about like constantly involving it. But it's an expensive factor

131
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,560
Speaker 5: and even when it comes to like women, girls and labels,

132
00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,560
Speaker 5: the labels do not want to you know, for the

133
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:02,400
Speaker 5: expence for that. They don't want to do that because

134
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:05,520
Speaker 5: it's over expensive. And that's another cut for girls in

135
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 5: the game. You know, Like so you got to really

136
00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:09,799
Speaker 5: be kicking in making some bread in order to investigate

137
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:11,480
Speaker 5: yourself to come out looking like you.

138
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:15,240
Speaker 4: Know, yeah, to pull that money from.

139
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like when you was in the game, like

140
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:18,960
Speaker 2: when you first came in, it was like full of

141
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:22,159
Speaker 2: niggas and you still stood out amongst the niggas, Like

142
00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:23,839
Speaker 2: we can give you that, Like you come on the

143
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 2: track with any nigga, you ripping it.

144
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:26,040
Speaker 5: You know what I'm saying.

145
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:28,479
Speaker 2: I don't think it's that ain't really happening these days,

146
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 2: like girls actually making their own tracks and popping off.

147
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:35,039
Speaker 2: How female used to be featured on niggas songs and

148
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:36,640
Speaker 2: ship and we're going crazy, you know.

149
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:37,080
Speaker 1: What I'm saying.

150
00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:39,400
Speaker 5: Now it's more girls just got their songs and this

151
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 5: is the pop off song, and they.

152
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:42,440
Speaker 2: Might put on their song, you know what I'm saying,

153
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:44,240
Speaker 2: Like you can get on a song one of them

154
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:45,479
Speaker 2: niggas and rip their ship.

155
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:48,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's what it was. That moment though when

156
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:50,920
Speaker 1: you heard now and everybody was like who is this? Yeah,

157
00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:52,480
Speaker 1: it was just one of them moments.

158
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:55,160
Speaker 5: Like a tone for like girls to like pop up

159
00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:57,760
Speaker 5: like you know how they feel and going against a

160
00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:01,680
Speaker 5: guy for that. So when now have a dude put

161
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:03,360
Speaker 5: a song out of you want to put a girl feature,

162
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:05,720
Speaker 5: you know that's what she's going for, Like I'm about

163
00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:08,039
Speaker 5: to like rip this down, and especially.

164
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 6: Like I'm sorry, especially like with that with the type

165
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:14,760
Speaker 6: of content that was in Nia Niggain, like the type

166
00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,040
Speaker 6: of shit that you were saying. I was reading online

167
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:21,000
Speaker 6: somewhere that people like kind of look at you as

168
00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:29,080
Speaker 6: sexy reds fairy godmother like and walk so she could

169
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:34,200
Speaker 6: fly type shit like because back then, even like to

170
00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 6: this day, like you kind of set the precedent and

171
00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 6: allowed females to unabashedly and openly feel comfortable expressing how they.

172
00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:47,080
Speaker 4: Felt about their sexuality.

173
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:50,440
Speaker 6: And before then it was like a taboo matter and

174
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:52,440
Speaker 6: you know, oh my god, like, don't talk about that,

175
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:54,720
Speaker 6: don't say this, don't say that. You put it all

176
00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:57,000
Speaker 6: out on the table and was like, fuck it here

177
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 6: I am, this is how I feel.

178
00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:01,760
Speaker 4: Take it or leave it. And you really did.

179
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:05,400
Speaker 6: A lot for women back then because they didn't have

180
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:07,240
Speaker 6: an outlet and you were like that.

181
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:08,120
Speaker 4: Outlet for that.

182
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:11,240
Speaker 5: What I you know, when I had learned the difference, Well,

183
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:14,600
Speaker 5: this is the very beginning, because when I first did

184
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 5: the Nail record, right recorded, we did the video, we

185
00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:20,600
Speaker 5: did all that, and mind you now came out ninety eight,

186
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:23,160
Speaker 5: but like August, I believe, like in August ninety eight

187
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:27,480
Speaker 5: and right after the song came out, that's when it

188
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 5: was Trick's birthday and his birthday party was the first

189
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:33,440
Speaker 5: time I went to a club and he was about

190
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:35,599
Speaker 5: to perform his first album. But then this is the

191
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:38,319
Speaker 5: biggest record you got now, so I'm just there and

192
00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 5: this is, of course the night I never performed the

193
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:43,880
Speaker 5: song right because I've never performed ever before on the stage,

194
00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 5: so I didn't know what what to do, and I

195
00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:47,320
Speaker 5: was gonna be doing so when I'm at the party

196
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:49,679
Speaker 5: and you know, he's doing all his other song songs

197
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:51,280
Speaker 5: he had with look everything on his pro check. And

198
00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:53,920
Speaker 5: when this record came up, and my friends are like

199
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:55,480
Speaker 5: pushing me, like go go to the front, I'm like,

200
00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:57,040
Speaker 5: what are you all talking about. I'm just here for

201
00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:59,160
Speaker 5: the party, like to have a good time. So now

202
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:01,719
Speaker 5: the song comes on and they hands me a mic,

203
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:03,719
Speaker 5: but I'm just standing there and I'm just looking at

204
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:05,839
Speaker 5: you know, Trick them they are and they element it

205
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:08,520
Speaker 5: pumped up and the crowd is going nuts. But now

206
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:10,920
Speaker 5: when and you know, you hear me come on the

207
00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:13,840
Speaker 5: front talking my ship. So when it comes down to

208
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:17,640
Speaker 5: my verse, I'm standing in the stage with the mic

209
00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 5: with all these people just looking at me. I'm not

210
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:23,200
Speaker 5: saying nothing like I'm just you froze. I couldn't even speak.

211
00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:28,240
Speaker 5: I was like, no word for word. And this is

212
00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:31,280
Speaker 5: what made me realize, like, Okay, I was in the

213
00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:33,760
Speaker 5: studio with my girlfriends and we did I did the record,

214
00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 5: but it was boosting off of them, like they gave

215
00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:38,440
Speaker 5: me the energy, Like I ain't like talk that shit

216
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:39,880
Speaker 5: harder than trick. They was like, no, you gotta say

217
00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:42,520
Speaker 5: something else, you gotta be But when I did the

218
00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:45,719
Speaker 5: song and I seen I didn't say a word at

219
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:49,760
Speaker 5: this show, and every girl in the club knew it

220
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:54,320
Speaker 5: resonated word for words, and I was just like I

221
00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:58,079
Speaker 5: got yeah, like y'all nasty, like y'all just y'all want

222
00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:00,480
Speaker 5: to say. I just instantly knew it was that whole

223
00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:03,800
Speaker 5: taboo factor. I didn't say nothing, and you guys memorized it.

224
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:05,880
Speaker 5: The song had just came out in August. Strict birthday

225
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:08,480
Speaker 5: was in September. This is my first time at a

226
00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:11,440
Speaker 5: club in a setting where he's about to the stage

227
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:14,360
Speaker 5: and I don't know what the hell I'm about, Like

228
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:16,240
Speaker 5: I'm going to support but not coming to you know,

229
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,960
Speaker 5: actually get on the stage. But that's how I figured

230
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:22,559
Speaker 5: that out from the beginning, very first beginning. Yeah, that's hard.

231
00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:25,559
Speaker 3: Yeah, you said you kind of that that was you

232
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:28,040
Speaker 3: knew that was like the Laneland. I'm gonna stick with this.

233
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 1: I just well, what.

234
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:32,560
Speaker 5: Happened was you know what happened. So that was the beginning.

235
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:36,560
Speaker 5: Now fast forward a little bit. I'm not sure. I'm

236
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:39,640
Speaker 5: not really sure, like when Fami's home coming or whatever,

237
00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:40,959
Speaker 5: but we're gonna go to the next year. Now it

238
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:45,199
Speaker 5: was already out, so it's on radio. It's big, crazy, Well,

239
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 5: now we go do. This is the first big concert

240
00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:53,040
Speaker 5: in Tallahassee for damn you. It's homecoming everybody. I'm talking

241
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:56,559
Speaker 5: about so many people, it's crazy pack and now this

242
00:10:56,679 --> 00:11:00,360
Speaker 5: is now I'm ready. When I hit the stage, I

243
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:02,760
Speaker 5: got dances with me. I'm I'm telling now, oh yeah,

244
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:06,400
Speaker 5: I'm about to like push your face. And so what

245
00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:08,719
Speaker 5: I learned at that moment was again, because I only

246
00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 5: had this one record, was just staying and when I

247
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:12,080
Speaker 5: did the verse, and I'm watching the girls do the

248
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:14,839
Speaker 5: exact same thing, but I'm performing it now and now

249
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:18,080
Speaker 5: I'm looking at them. And then that's what gave me

250
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:23,679
Speaker 5: my whole lane of women are paying attention everything you say,

251
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:28,120
Speaker 5: They're gonna say, make it meaningful, take like control of it.

252
00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:30,560
Speaker 5: Like I'm looking at them like this is like I

253
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:34,760
Speaker 5: just built this family, like this organization of women and like, oh,

254
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:36,480
Speaker 5: you know you a bad bitch like you the baddest

255
00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:38,000
Speaker 5: bitch like I gotta and that's.

256
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:39,079
Speaker 4: The bad community.

257
00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:41,160
Speaker 5: Baddest Bitch song came up because I was looking at

258
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:44,200
Speaker 5: all these women like if I was saying now, was

259
00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:48,040
Speaker 5: that I need something that is gonna like just chant

260
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:50,560
Speaker 5: and represent for all the girls, get about the whole now.

261
00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:53,160
Speaker 5: Now I'm on, I'm on meeting the girls now. And

262
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:55,400
Speaker 5: that's how I started creating the lane of the women

263
00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:58,800
Speaker 5: music and the Baddest Bitch record and the pullover and

264
00:11:58,840 --> 00:11:59,839
Speaker 5: the kind of here we go.

265
00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:05,160

00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:13,120
Speaker 5: I mean, I've traveled all over the whole world, but

271
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:16,120
Speaker 5: I ain't gonna like, first of all, y'all lucky that

272
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:18,360
Speaker 5: I'm here because I started feeling a little bit of

273
00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:21,760
Speaker 5: weather change outside. I don't like to go at all.

274
00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:25,560
Speaker 5: I need to say where it is, okay, y'all good?

275
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,800
Speaker 5: When I feel that it just like its sneaking up

276
00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:33,679
Speaker 5: like hold on, it's just get told y'all gott to

00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:38,719
Speaker 5: no always I love it's just like that's the go

279
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:40,280
Speaker 5: you know. So I know what people feel like when

280
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 5: they come in but they go to the beach and

281
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:43,760
Speaker 5: they like, you know, I don't even go to the

282
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:45,800
Speaker 5: beach because I've done that my whole life. But it's

283
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:48,920
Speaker 5: just the atmosphere, the warmth, like the city life of

284
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:49,640
Speaker 5: it that I love.

285
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:52,440
Speaker 2: What I was about to say, I see. So do

286
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:54,839
Speaker 2: you think that started doing Trick, like because it seemed

287
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,120
Speaker 2: like y'all got a relationship to the where y'all be like

288
00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:59,760
Speaker 2: comparison like, bro, I do this, I do that, you know,

289
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:02,600
Speaker 2: thinking that the song started that type of.

290
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:04,839
Speaker 5: Relationship, Well, because yeah, because well this is the thing.

291
00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:08,840
Speaker 5: Trick always feels like like you know, I'm bossy so

292
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:11,320
Speaker 5: all the like like basically like, y'all, girl, like you

293
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 5: listen to her, this is gonna get your job. You

294
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:14,800
Speaker 5: listen to her like basically saying like because everything she

295
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,680
Speaker 5: say is like it's always I'm gonna be, it's gonna be.

296
00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:19,839
Speaker 5: Whatever I'm doing is wrong to her, like Oh that's

297
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:24,120
Speaker 5: wrong because you're a masogic and I call you out

298
00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:26,200
Speaker 5: in there every time, and he hates that. And so

299
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:28,640
Speaker 5: it's always gonna be all the girls I'm writing for,

300
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:30,240
Speaker 5: no matter what he's saying, and he'll want to talk

301
00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:32,079
Speaker 5: about everything you're not. You don't even know these things

302
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 5: about women at heart. So I've always been like yeah,

303
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:37,520
Speaker 5: like yush, Like I've always been like that with him.

304
00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:40,080
Speaker 5: And that's how that energy kind of creates, like Okay,

305
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,360
Speaker 5: you're gonna pop it, but you know, when you spin

306
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:44,360
Speaker 5: the block, I'm off here, I'm gonna stop it.

307
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:48,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's how we ain't take a friendship out of time.

308
00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:51,320
Speaker 5: I mean, well we we kind of. I grew up,

309
00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:52,959
Speaker 5: like we went to junior high, so I always knew

310
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:56,320
Speaker 5: him even before the music, and so once we started

311
00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:57,960
Speaker 5: doing music or whatever, and then then we came like

312
00:13:57,960 --> 00:13:59,439
Speaker 5: everybody else on the label, all of us. It was

313
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:01,679
Speaker 5: just like a big family. And then you know, we

314
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:04,959
Speaker 5: once we started. Uh, when we first started off in

315
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:06,600
Speaker 5: the beginning, I was on the tour that was the

316
00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:09,719
Speaker 5: first tour with Trick, and then after that we kind

317
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:11,040
Speaker 5: of branched off. I was on my own thing. I

318
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:13,120
Speaker 5: did my second album, and we would just like kind

319
00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:15,720
Speaker 5: of link up to do shows, like everybody that booked

320
00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:17,760
Speaker 5: the show wanted us to do nand together. So we'll

321
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:20,280
Speaker 5: always be in some atmosphere. I have to always do that,

322
00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:21,160
Speaker 5: no matter what.

323
00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:22,320
Speaker 1: Who the goat from Florida?

324
00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:34,360
Speaker 5: What's the Florida. I'm from Miami, which mean Florida. No, yeah,

325
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 5: I know, Luke is a goat from daycount. We gotta

326
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:39,880
Speaker 5: give Luke that respect in that whole because we wouldn't

327
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:41,160
Speaker 5: even to be able to pop out ship how we

328
00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:44,040
Speaker 5: poppled if Luke didn't get that parental advisory sticker, everything

329
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:46,800
Speaker 5: would be completely beaked out on the whole ship. You

330
00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:48,440
Speaker 5: don't know what we're talking about. So we definitely give

331
00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 5: him that for his contribution to what he did. And

332
00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:54,120
Speaker 5: then as far as artist, like you know, damn, who

333
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:58,960
Speaker 5: is the artist? We go cross what else? I don't

334
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,960
Speaker 5: even know I be. I'll be in my own little bubble. Yeah,

335
00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:07,120
Speaker 5: but that's definitely me. You're gonna put me on that that.

336
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:10,160
Speaker 2: That Mount Rushmore you saying like, yeah, I can't pick one.

337
00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:12,200
Speaker 5: Everybody contribute contributed to.

338
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:16,760
Speaker 3: Then his thing j.

00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 5: what we came j T. Money was that. You know,

341
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:24,960
Speaker 5: he's older, he's real gold, he's been there. He he

342
00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 5: popped it for Trick the baby to pop.

343
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:29,360
Speaker 2: It that it's like, we can't, we can't put it

344
00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:29,680
Speaker 2: to one.

345
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:30,240
Speaker 1: We'll get it.

346
00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:34,680
Speaker 5: You gotta give it, give it the loop overall, like

347
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:38,840
Speaker 5: like like exposing to start it off, like getting the

348
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,600
Speaker 5: whole genre started. And that's how that was the top,

349
00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:43,960
Speaker 5: That's how it started. After that, then he opened the

350
00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:46,160
Speaker 5: door and after that j T came in popping it

351
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 5: and j T had the whole city, the hood, everybody.

352
00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:51,520
Speaker 5: That was the talk. And then came after that and

353
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:56,160
Speaker 5: then there's the Queen Mount Rush.

354
00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:59,680
Speaker 3: This is a sighting that you got a book, right finally,

355
00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:02,360
Speaker 3: like you finally arrive and you have this book. A

356
00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:05,120
Speaker 3: two part question what made you decide to finally write

357
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:07,320
Speaker 3: a book? And then there's an excerpt in there where

358
00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:10,360
Speaker 3: you say being a beautiful woman is a form of currency.

359
00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:12,120
Speaker 1: Right, so I guess talk about.

360
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:13,600
Speaker 3: What made you decide to write the book and talk

361
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:16,240
Speaker 3: about this beauty and currency situation in the book.

362
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:18,960
Speaker 5: The Badest, Well, I just did the book first, just

363
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:22,320
Speaker 5: so this is because I've done a lot for twenty

364
00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:25,560
Speaker 5: four years, and it's my every people. Like you know,

365
00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:27,960
Speaker 5: I'm always private. It's always what you see. Like if

366
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:30,360
Speaker 5: it's a video, it's a show. This is the this

367
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:32,680
Speaker 5: is the entertainment world of me, you see. But when

368
00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:35,240
Speaker 5: it comes to my personal I be away from the

369
00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 5: world really and like so when it's my story, I've

370
00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:40,960
Speaker 5: always heard my story chopped and screwed in all types

371
00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:42,880
Speaker 5: of ways, and some of this shit, I be like, what,

372
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:45,840
Speaker 5: I don't even know what you're talking about. So me,

373
00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:48,040
Speaker 5: I'm always straightforward. It is what it is. If I

374
00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:49,640
Speaker 5: did I did, If I didn't, I didn't, I say

375
00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 5: that I'm mature and grown. The book is to say,

376
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:57,440
Speaker 5: this is how it really happened. This is how it started.

377
00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 5: This is how I was Trina before you guys knew.

378
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:03,120
Speaker 5: I was training before the baddest appear, before all of this.

379
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:05,840
Speaker 5: That was how the story came up. And you know

380
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:08,600
Speaker 5: how I navigated my way into the industry, how it started,

381
00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:12,280
Speaker 5: the whole situation doing the song from trick to everybody

382
00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:14,080
Speaker 5: else I worked with the industry. You know, it's a

383
00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:16,520
Speaker 5: lot of speak on like a lot of female artists

384
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:18,560
Speaker 5: in there in the book that I spoke about because

385
00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:21,440
Speaker 5: I've worked with some of the most amazing female artists

386
00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:24,320
Speaker 5: in this industry, you know, hip hop, R and B whatever.

387
00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:27,640
Speaker 5: I've done that, so I learned a lot from them.

388
00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:29,879
Speaker 5: From them and like most of us have built like

389
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:33,840
Speaker 5: great friendships and we've grown together in this industry, you know.

390
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:37,439
Speaker 5: And I wanted to put that in there. I just

391
00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:40,160
Speaker 5: want to tell my way, like, you know, what made

392
00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:42,360
Speaker 5: me do this, how I navigated through this. It's good,

393
00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:45,280
Speaker 5: it's bad. The loss, you know, stuff that just really

394
00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:47,840
Speaker 5: broke me, that just really like took almost the life

395
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:50,480
Speaker 5: out of me. That I had to continue to work

396
00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:53,679
Speaker 5: through in my career and just work because that's what

397
00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:56,919
Speaker 5: I was used to doing, you know. And yeah, just

398
00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:59,600
Speaker 5: like you know, just stuff, the good, the mad, the ugly.

399
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:03,159
Speaker 5: Losing my mom was like that's that's the icing of

400
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:05,560
Speaker 5: the cake for me, that that's like my heart died,

401
00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:08,359
Speaker 5: you know. And that's something true that I wanted to

402
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:12,720
Speaker 5: say because people watched it with me, and sometimes it's

403
00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:14,800
Speaker 5: over emotion to where I got to a point where

404
00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 5: like I couldn't even speak about it. I would just cry.

405
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:18,560
Speaker 5: I would just be sad. I would be completely lost.

406
00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:21,280
Speaker 5: And that was all important because I still was working

407
00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:23,879
Speaker 5: and pushing through these stuff, and sometimes people would be like,

408
00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:25,960
Speaker 5: you know, is you okay? Are you happy? You're having

409
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:29,080
Speaker 5: a good day. No, I'm not, but I'm still here,

410
00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:31,520
Speaker 5: Like my god, I'm here, you know. And you know,

411
00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:33,520
Speaker 5: it was just my story. You know, everybody else I

412
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:36,199
Speaker 5: worked with in Miami, all the artists, all the artists

413
00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:39,320
Speaker 5: in the game that I respect and that I enjoyed

414
00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:43,400
Speaker 5: working with, and you know, just my life. That's kind

415
00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:46,159
Speaker 5: of how I did it. And we're turning into a movie,

416
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:46,920
Speaker 5: so yeah, that.

417
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:48,480
Speaker 4: Means yeah, that's big.

418
00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:56,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, you yeah, sure. I don't want to get

419
00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:57,880
Speaker 5: and my flowers. I'm not giving it. Somebody and told

420
00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:00,000
Speaker 5: my story and I'm like, no, that is not what happened.

421
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:02,680
Speaker 5: That is not not that I remember. I remember going

422
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:05,960
Speaker 5: like this, and you cannot tell that because you wasn't there.

423
00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:08,240
Speaker 5: I don't care what you saw or somebody wrote. I

424
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:11,040
Speaker 5: don't care about what pitch. I don't That's not what happened.

425
00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:13,120
Speaker 5: This is what happened. Let me take it down memory lane.

426
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:15,200
Speaker 5: Let's take it all the way back from the beginning

427
00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:18,600
Speaker 5: to when I before I was born, and my whole

428
00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:22,399
Speaker 5: like you know, consending everything in the start, everything in

429
00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:26,160
Speaker 5: the book, you know, And yeah, I got Missy Elliott

430
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:28,920
Speaker 5: to do the forward of the book, which really meant

431
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:32,080
Speaker 5: a lot to me because missus this is one of

432
00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:34,520
Speaker 5: my greatest friends in the industry from day one. She's

433
00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:37,920
Speaker 5: always been genuine, always been like herself, Like I learned

434
00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:41,400
Speaker 5: a lot of the business and how to make sure

435
00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:44,880
Speaker 5: that I was making my money from Missy. Like Missy

436
00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:47,120
Speaker 5: is the only artist I know like in this game,

437
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:49,440
Speaker 5: we came in and I didn't even notice or I

438
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:51,720
Speaker 5: honestly didn't even have control of this because it was

439
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:54,480
Speaker 5: all controlled by the label. And but you know, like

440
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:57,639
Speaker 5: artists will get like so mad when your records is

441
00:19:57,720 --> 00:19:59,960
Speaker 5: lead that some come out and you in your camp

442
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:01,520
Speaker 5: trying to figure out how it came out, and it's

443
00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:04,080
Speaker 5: always a back and forth blame game. And Missy's the

444
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:06,639
Speaker 5: artist that I know that never had that marble. She

445
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:08,560
Speaker 5: never had a Record's league. You never had a Missy

446
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:10,880
Speaker 5: Elliott league record. She just didn't play that. She didn't

447
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:13,160
Speaker 5: put her records around. Ain't nobody in the camp getting

448
00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:15,679
Speaker 5: no Missy record until until it's done ready to come out.

449
00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:18,160
Speaker 5: And I just was like, you know, you just learn

450
00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:20,160
Speaker 5: and you understand how you need to control your own

451
00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:22,600
Speaker 5: self to make stuff because otherwise you're gonna stay being mad,

452
00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:24,560
Speaker 5: You're gonna stay going through the same stuff. And ain't

453
00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:26,639
Speaker 5: nobody want to take the blame. Nobody want to be like,

454
00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:29,280
Speaker 5: oh it's my for everybody gonna get silent because they're thinking,

455
00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:31,320
Speaker 5: you can't, you know, figure it out who it was or

456
00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:33,639
Speaker 5: the finger span pointed. But yeah, just that and like

457
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:36,399
Speaker 5: she's been there, like through all the baddest parts of

458
00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:39,240
Speaker 5: my career and the best like motivating pushing. I pushed

459
00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:41,720
Speaker 5: her the same way, you know, and I just that's

460
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:45,600
Speaker 5: like the people that I genuinely like, like like, it's

461
00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:48,720
Speaker 5: not the industry. It really is not made for friends.

462
00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:50,000
Speaker 5: You don't know if you're gonna make a friend or

463
00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:52,000
Speaker 5: something wreak these people. But that don't mean that I'm

464
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:53,520
Speaker 5: about to tell you my life story, And that don't

465
00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:56,120
Speaker 5: mean start asking me for money, because that's where my friend.

466
00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:59,040
Speaker 5: This is like we're associated working the business. I respect you,

467
00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:02,479
Speaker 5: you respect me, And that's people. Eventually, in time, you

468
00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:04,800
Speaker 5: meet people in this industry that we're in, and then

469
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:06,679
Speaker 5: these kind of people are the people you want in

470
00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:09,160
Speaker 5: your life, you know, the genuine people. The people don't

471
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:11,040
Speaker 5: really call you when the camera's off, the lights off,

472
00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:13,000
Speaker 5: or check on you when you don't lost somebody, not

473
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:14,920
Speaker 5: when the hype is up, when the hype is three

474
00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:17,960
Speaker 5: four years later gone. Still see how you're doing. And

475
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:20,840
Speaker 5: those are the people that I like to like have

476
00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:21,719
Speaker 5: in my circle.

477
00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:25,320
Speaker 1: Else when I got.

478
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:32,160
Speaker 2: What you think the obstacles is being your true authentic

479
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:33,040
Speaker 2: self in this game.

480
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:38,119
Speaker 5: Truthfully, for me, I think that's the only way you

481
00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:42,280
Speaker 5: really survive, because when you not truthfully your authentic self,

482
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:44,520
Speaker 5: you get caught up in the hype, you get jad,

483
00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:45,960
Speaker 5: you get jealous, you get lost.

484
00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:49,680
Speaker 2: It's like, what about like people like how people receive.

485
00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:51,400
Speaker 5: Like Yeah, but that's the thing. When I say that's

486
00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:53,399
Speaker 5: how you the only way you meet personally, feel like

487
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:57,040
Speaker 5: you really will because if you stay your real authentic self,

488
00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:00,080
Speaker 5: no matter how nobody perceive you, you're gonna still be yourself

489
00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:02,600
Speaker 5: whether they stop perceiving you. Fifty years from now, when

490
00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:04,600
Speaker 5: you're not on this show, when you're not doing whatever

491
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:06,520
Speaker 5: your life is, and you're home with your wife or

492
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:09,080
Speaker 5: your kids, your family, you're still your same person. You

493
00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:14,000
Speaker 5: did not have to transition to another person to like

494
00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:16,400
Speaker 5: being this. That's not the case. That's when you get

495
00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:18,400
Speaker 5: completely lost if you know who you are, I don't

496
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:20,080
Speaker 5: care what nobody looking at you as you don't know me,

497
00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:22,560
Speaker 5: what you think, you know, what you see or if

498
00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:24,119
Speaker 5: you heard me say that I could talk. This is

499
00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:27,080
Speaker 5: a freedom of speech that we live in is country.

500
00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:30,640
Speaker 5: So how I talk or how I create, and how

501
00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:33,239
Speaker 5: I feel, that's how I feel. I was feeling good

502
00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:34,639
Speaker 5: this day. I felt like making a good record. I

503
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:36,000
Speaker 5: was speeling sad this that I made a sad record.

504
00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:38,080
Speaker 5: I was feeling like turning up. I was feeling like

505
00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:39,560
Speaker 5: party and I was feel like popping my shit. I

506
00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:42,359
Speaker 5: was feeling like, fuck you, I'm making this record. I

507
00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:44,280
Speaker 5: was feeling like being sexy. I was feeling like being

508
00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:47,159
Speaker 5: love unloved. Whatever I feel, I'm a poppet. That's the

509
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:49,639
Speaker 5: feeling I'm in. Who are you to say, Oh, you

510
00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:52,560
Speaker 5: shouldn't say or feel that way. There's a lot of

511
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:54,760
Speaker 5: things you probably say and do and we just don't

512
00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:57,400
Speaker 5: know about it. So that judging thing that would kill

513
00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:00,600
Speaker 5: your like the organic person you are, So will you

514
00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:01,119
Speaker 5: change that?

515
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:01,400
Speaker 1: Then?

516
00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:02,200
Speaker 5: Who are you?

517
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:04,720
Speaker 2: People try to hold you to one moment too, Yeah,

518
00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:06,399
Speaker 2: you can try to hold you to one moment. But

519
00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:10,400
Speaker 2: what she's saying is I displayed most of my emotions

520
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 2: in front of your face through my music. You know

521
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:13,960
Speaker 2: what I'm saying, y'all take it, y'all want to take you.

522
00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:15,960
Speaker 2: One song doesn't mean that's me every day.

523
00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:18,280
Speaker 5: You can't be just the image that I choose to

524
00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:21,080
Speaker 5: project at that time. I got six albums. There's no

525
00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:22,800
Speaker 5: way that one song could be me every day. You

526
00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:25,359
Speaker 5: get what I'm saying. There's so many different emotions, so

527
00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:27,840
Speaker 5: many different type of Oh you came this way, but

528
00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:31,960
Speaker 5: now record is nothing like here we go, Here we

529
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:36,119
Speaker 5: go record exactly. It's sad, it's bad record. It's nothing

530
00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:39,840
Speaker 5: like record now record. It is nothing like I Gotta

531
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:42,240
Speaker 5: Thank for You a Keisha Cole Records. Now record is

532
00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:44,760
Speaker 5: nothing like I got a Bottle with Missy Elliot Now, Robert,

533
00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:48,760
Speaker 5: it's nothing like these records. So you it's just how

534
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:51,320
Speaker 5: you're feeling the move. This wasn't my record, This was

535
00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:54,000
Speaker 5: tricks record. Like I didn't even know what now man.

536
00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:55,240
Speaker 5: I had to learn all this when I got in

537
00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:57,719
Speaker 5: the studio. But when I got in there and say like, oh,

538
00:23:57,800 --> 00:23:59,320
Speaker 5: what are we really doing it? What are you talking about?

539
00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:00,960
Speaker 5: When I heard what you was saying, what am I

540
00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:02,680
Speaker 5: supposed to say, because I'm thinking, I'm just coming to

541
00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:04,600
Speaker 5: you a favor, and get popped my name on the

542
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:06,440
Speaker 5: song and I'm coming here now. I did a whole verse,

543
00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:10,959
Speaker 5: and but the organic of it was the battle of

544
00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:14,080
Speaker 5: the sexes. Yes, you're a man, I'm a female. I'm

545
00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:16,159
Speaker 5: about to slarter your ass in here. I don't get

546
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:19,439
Speaker 5: all these girls, like a million women in march, and

547
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:22,240
Speaker 5: we're marching on top of this and that's that, and

548
00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:23,560
Speaker 5: then we've been marching ever since.

549
00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:29,080
Speaker 6: Another thing I want to talk about, like because you

550
00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:31,720
Speaker 6: were just saying, how like you can't be held to

551
00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:33,359
Speaker 6: one standard or one song.

552
00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:35,480
Speaker 4: But one thing that.

553
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:38,840
Speaker 6: Just over the years, people that have really paid attention

554
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:42,000
Speaker 6: to you can hold you to is the fact that

555
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:45,320
Speaker 6: no matter what you're doing, no matter where you are,

556
00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:49,080
Speaker 6: no matter what you have going on, it's it's always

557
00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:52,520
Speaker 6: a certain standard of this probably ain't even a word,

558
00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:55,399
Speaker 6: but like it's it's always a certain standard of like

559
00:24:55,880 --> 00:25:01,639
Speaker 6: glamorousness or glamorous you don't like always shiny, it's like

560
00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:03,320
Speaker 6: it's classy as flash.

561
00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:06,920
Speaker 5: Because I love the glamorous life. That's what I want,

562
00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:09,640
Speaker 5: That's what I envisioned my life just to be super glamorous,

563
00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:12,919
Speaker 5: super flashy, very this full of diamonds, this like that,

564
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:14,680
Speaker 5: that's Miami.

565
00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:16,760
Speaker 4: Like the whole like this shoulder was very over.

566
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:22,360
Speaker 3: Was one of the few people to not to not nobody,

567
00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:24,560
Speaker 3: but Trina is one of the few people that conquered

568
00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:25,480
Speaker 3: love and hip hop.

569
00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:27,360
Speaker 1: You know, you can go on love and hip Hop

570
00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:31,440
Speaker 1: and I ain't even but that.

571
00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:36,520
Speaker 5: This is the thing where people don't understand about I

572
00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:40,080
Speaker 5: hear this so much and so don't just don't forget

573
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:45,320
Speaker 5: Love and hip Hop started. It wasn't Alanta, New York,

574
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:48,159
Speaker 5: New York Atlanta when New York Atlanta in l A

575
00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:50,159
Speaker 5: before it came to Miami. So in the realm of

576
00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:53,720
Speaker 5: all of that, in this four year building of the

577
00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:55,480
Speaker 5: Love and hip Hop franchise, they were trying to get

578
00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:58,200
Speaker 5: Miami the same time. I wouldn't do it. I wouldn't commit.

579
00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:01,159
Speaker 5: I was like, no, I watched the show. You know,

580
00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:04,080
Speaker 5: I'm not for the week pulling and drink throwing not

581
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:09,040
Speaker 5: my style, but it's entertaining. It was cool, and so

582
00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:11,280
Speaker 5: everybody would be like, oh, is it You know the

583
00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:13,679
Speaker 5: show's fake because it's scripted or whatever, and you know,

584
00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:15,280
Speaker 5: I would just be looking at certain stuff and I'm

585
00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:17,600
Speaker 5: looking at certain the people on the show like, well, no,

586
00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:19,560
Speaker 5: this stay real life. They got this going on, you know,

587
00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:22,280
Speaker 5: maybe certain stuff out of context or whatever. But anyway,

588
00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:25,400
Speaker 5: moving forward, when I had did the Rockstar Music Group

589
00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:27,800
Speaker 5: and I had started working with these artists, to me,

590
00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:33,840
Speaker 5: I felt like that was like the moment to say yes,

591
00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:37,480
Speaker 5: I'm gonna do it because the platform was television and

592
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:39,879
Speaker 5: we don't have like we didn't have no more like

593
00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:41,960
Speaker 5: on No. Six in Park or like the MTV EO raps,

594
00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:44,919
Speaker 5: none of that to be on. So these artists were

595
00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:48,600
Speaker 5: in a different time, right, Everybody, I don't I can't

596
00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:51,040
Speaker 5: make you into a meet like I can't make you

597
00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:54,159
Speaker 5: have this big following and a hardcore fan base that

598
00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:56,520
Speaker 5: started with you since you came out to Now you

599
00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:59,119
Speaker 5: gotta get on, you gotta get online and you know,

600
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:02,000
Speaker 5: figure out how to be creative and build a bill

601
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:04,240
Speaker 5: fan base. And so I felt like going on TV

602
00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:05,920
Speaker 5: and having an artist that that would help when that

603
00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:09,600
Speaker 5: would showcase something and then there is the whole Miami.

604
00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:13,280
Speaker 5: There's Trick, you know, then there's Bobby. There's just a

605
00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:16,720
Speaker 5: connection of it. It made sense, you know, it made sense,

606
00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:20,359
Speaker 5: and there was me It was standards like, look, I

607
00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:22,760
Speaker 5: am a business and a brand. I came on here

608
00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:25,320
Speaker 5: as a brand. I'm not gonna I don't need to do.

609
00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:27,719
Speaker 5: I don't need to be like in space. I'm not

610
00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:30,480
Speaker 5: gonna be dissolve that we're gonna go on here. I

611
00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:32,920
Speaker 5: came I brought my brand to your show. Your show

612
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:34,800
Speaker 5: didn't make me a brand. So I came on there

613
00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:37,679
Speaker 5: already very business oriented, very much. What I need to

614
00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:40,960
Speaker 5: do is this is following my reality. Like even with

615
00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:43,160
Speaker 5: my last album's show, I went through the whole process

616
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:45,920
Speaker 5: of the downfall of it, the whole situation with my manager,

617
00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:48,119
Speaker 5: the whole label. It was a bad thing. I was

618
00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:50,359
Speaker 5: really living in that moment. I was sad I was

619
00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:52,040
Speaker 5: going through it. I worked so hard on this album.

620
00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:54,200
Speaker 5: I had all the biggest artists on this album, and

621
00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:57,240
Speaker 5: all that happened in real lifetime. So this is what

622
00:27:57,280 --> 00:28:00,000
Speaker 5: I want to show. I don't care about who's sleeping

623
00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:02,400
Speaker 5: with who, who's messing who. I don't care about none

624
00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:04,359
Speaker 5: of that. Let me do my business, put it on

625
00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:06,760
Speaker 5: this platform, and let's keep them moving right, you know

626
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:09,159
Speaker 5: what I mean, because otherwise you get kind of lost

627
00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:11,120
Speaker 5: in the hype of it, and then before you know it,

628
00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:14,760
Speaker 5: you're just there or you're just constantly babbling off into drama.

629
00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:17,960
Speaker 5: You're not elevating. It's not beneficial. Besides, I mean, yeah, OK,

630
00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:19,880
Speaker 5: care if you're getting paid, But what's the benefit after

631
00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:22,040
Speaker 5: what's the growth after that? You're gonna keep like throwing

632
00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:24,480
Speaker 5: drinks or fighting it like what comes next? Like it

633
00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:27,040
Speaker 5: has to be a next. And that's always the mentality

634
00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:28,760
Speaker 5: I went into it with, like it has to make sense.

635
00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:32,040
Speaker 5: So if I'm on here, I'm always working, I'm always

636
00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:34,359
Speaker 5: doing something. I always have stuff to do. We always

637
00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:35,439
Speaker 5: gotta make sure that's what.

638
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:36,919
Speaker 4: We don't even have time for the bullshit.

639
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:38,959
Speaker 5: No, I don't have the time for that. Like you know,

640
00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:41,360
Speaker 5: like I have two keys to the city of Miami.

641
00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:44,240
Speaker 5: We can't play around at you get what I'm saying.

642
00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:46,640
Speaker 5: So I always have that demeanor of that, like I

643
00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:49,640
Speaker 5: worked hard to get in these spaces. I don't want

644
00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:52,040
Speaker 5: nothing to like like diminish that will take it down.

645
00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:54,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, knock me down off the pedestal.

646
00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:55,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, as hard as it is to get on it.

647
00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:58,240
Speaker 2: So yeah, how you feel about the temperature of music

648
00:28:58,320 --> 00:28:58,720
Speaker 2: right now?

649
00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:06,080
Speaker 5: The temperature, Yeah, like the flow of it. I ain't

650
00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:08,000
Speaker 5: gonna be honest, I think I'm kind of out of

651
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:09,440
Speaker 5: the loop of it some kind of way. I love

652
00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:11,680
Speaker 5: all of new music. I like all the like the

653
00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:14,120
Speaker 5: new that you hear, every stuff that I hear. But

654
00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:18,800
Speaker 5: I just feel like, as I was more invested in it,

655
00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:21,360
Speaker 5: I think social media kind of killed that. Yeah, it

656
00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:25,240
Speaker 5: kind of like, you know, shit, we lost a lot

657
00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:27,520
Speaker 5: of great artists. You know, like a lot of great artists.

658
00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:30,640
Speaker 5: That was the connection to building bridges and making dope music.

659
00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:34,480
Speaker 5: And people don't realize, like, as this is our our artistry.

660
00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:38,400
Speaker 5: Artistry is like to unite we this is why you

661
00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:41,880
Speaker 5: guys love the collaborations. And there's a feature on this

662
00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:44,080
Speaker 5: record and we see the video they done. Did they

663
00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:46,320
Speaker 5: think this is why we do that. We love that,

664
00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:49,760
Speaker 5: And it's being tore down, it's being like taken for granted.

665
00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:53,240
Speaker 5: People are not even like realizing this has been I

666
00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:55,920
Speaker 5: mean this twenty four years. Some of these artists will

667
00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:58,680
Speaker 5: not be around twenty four years from now, you know

668
00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:00,560
Speaker 5: what I mean. And when I think about it, it's

669
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:05,760
Speaker 5: like wow, you know, because you gotta like it's our job.

670
00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:07,880
Speaker 5: We're having fun, we're making money. You know, you're getting

671
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:10,200
Speaker 5: the bad you turning up and all that, But realistically,

672
00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:12,640
Speaker 5: it's like a twenty four job, you working. You gotta

673
00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:15,160
Speaker 5: put your mindset in the work mindset in order to

674
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:18,640
Speaker 5: last because everything ain't gonna be hot forever. I don't care.

675
00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:20,720
Speaker 5: I got classic records. Are you going to club? You're

676
00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:22,480
Speaker 5: gonna still play them. It's not a new record, you

677
00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:24,480
Speaker 5: get what I mean. So these new records that are

678
00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:27,600
Speaker 5: hot today right now, on this day, will not be hot,

679
00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:30,280
Speaker 5: probably not even in the next two months from now

680
00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:32,600
Speaker 5: or two three years from now. So if you're not

681
00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:35,680
Speaker 5: structured to like keep pushing and keep moving on that

682
00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:38,320
Speaker 5: platform and keep building and keep collaborating with new artists

683
00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:41,880
Speaker 5: and bigger artists and artists out of your element and

684
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:44,719
Speaker 5: doing stuff that you probably thought you wouldn't do, how

685
00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:46,480
Speaker 5: is it? How is it gonna last? How is it

686
00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:51,360
Speaker 5: getting better? Like so much dope music is with artists

687
00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:53,240
Speaker 5: is not even here, Like you would never hear a

688
00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:54,640
Speaker 5: new album from them. You will never hear a new

689
00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:56,600
Speaker 5: project or new song, you know what I mean? Because

690
00:30:56,720 --> 00:31:00,760
Speaker 5: it's just not being structured like business out here, just

691
00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:05,040
Speaker 5: messing around, like if somebody don't physically like actually sock

692
00:31:05,120 --> 00:31:07,160
Speaker 5: you and punch your whatever, we ain't gotta beef. You

693
00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:10,120
Speaker 5: just talking like exactly, let's get let me get get

694
00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:12,040
Speaker 5: my money. I don't got time for that. And I

695
00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:14,160
Speaker 5: don't think a lot of artists even look at it

696
00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:15,200
Speaker 5: that way until it's too late.

697
00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:17,760
Speaker 1: Do you think it's such thing as like gate keepers

698
00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:18,120
Speaker 1: and this ship?

699
00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:22,880
Speaker 5: For absolutely, it's definitely gatekeepers. Definitely. I learned that I saw,

700
00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:27,760
Speaker 5: and I learned that. I've heard it for years in

701
00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:32,280
Speaker 5: my career, but I never, honestly, I never knew what

702
00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:37,120
Speaker 5: it meant. I didn't. And then when I did Rockstar

703
00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:39,200
Speaker 5: Music Group, that's when I learned what it meant because

704
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:40,800
Speaker 5: I was the person on the other end. I was

705
00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:42,320
Speaker 5: the artist, but I was still not on top of

706
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:44,400
Speaker 5: the artist street, and I had to be the person

707
00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:46,760
Speaker 5: doing what everybody else was doing for me that I

708
00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:48,640
Speaker 5: didn't know about. And then now I get to see, oh,

709
00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:50,760
Speaker 5: like and it just it just makes you look at

710
00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:51,800
Speaker 5: like stuff different.

711
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:55,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, like everything read, Yeah, everything big money read, you

712
00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:55,920
Speaker 2: asked me.

713
00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:59,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, It's just it's when once you see that, nobody

714
00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:01,040
Speaker 5: could tell you nothing because you've physically saw it, and

715
00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:01,480
Speaker 5: you like.

716
00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:03,280
Speaker 1: Wow, what you think that?

717
00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:04,280
Speaker 2: What you think?

718
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:05,520
Speaker 4: What you think?

719
00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:07,480
Speaker 2: The acceptance of it is like, well, how you have

720
00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:09,080
Speaker 2: to be You have to kind of be sort of

721
00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:13,560
Speaker 2: fake to get past the gatekeepers, right unless you vouched

722
00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:15,920
Speaker 2: then for a nig who already bene fake or some.

723
00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:19,480
Speaker 5: Shit, most of the fake are already. That's like a

724
00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:21,680
Speaker 5: little coat, a fake coat. It kind of like stick

725
00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:23,960
Speaker 5: together the fake run down to the thing. It just

726
00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:27,640
Speaker 5: keep happening to both these mean girls. Yeah, these the

727
00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:30,040
Speaker 5: people in the industry that once you know about it

728
00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:31,959
Speaker 5: and you know how, you see the moves and it's

729
00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:34,280
Speaker 5: kind of like, oh, all right, I see how you rocking.

730
00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:36,680
Speaker 5: I already heard that, But you don't really want to judge.

731
00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:38,520
Speaker 5: Nobody'll think of what anybody else because I I don't

732
00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:40,720
Speaker 5: like to do that. I like to see for myself

733
00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:43,239
Speaker 5: or feel the energy myself or if I heard now

734
00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:45,520
Speaker 5: I'm in the peak game that really sees you moving

735
00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:47,400
Speaker 5: like this is this really what's going on? Is this

736
00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:50,400
Speaker 5: really blocking? You know? Certain stuff? So I just paid

737
00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:53,800
Speaker 5: attention and when I seen it, I was like.

738
00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:56,560
Speaker 6: Wow, how do you like when you when you do

739
00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:58,920
Speaker 6: see it and when you do peep it? How do

740
00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:02,680
Speaker 6: you prevence yourself from just being like fuck everybody, I'm

741
00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:03,520
Speaker 6: not dealing with none of this.

742
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:05,400
Speaker 5: That's me. I don't want to deal with it. I

743
00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:07,400
Speaker 5: don't care I get around, I don't care. I just

744
00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:09,920
Speaker 5: it ain't my vibe. You know what y'all got that

745
00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:12,760
Speaker 5: y'all could do that. I take a loss, I don't

746
00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:14,800
Speaker 5: want to get I don't need it, like I don't

747
00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:17,440
Speaker 5: that's I just want to go. I feel like it

748
00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:20,120
Speaker 5: comes with more stuff attached, Like it comes with like

749
00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:24,680
Speaker 5: a different obligation. It comes with like something else. It's

750
00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:27,719
Speaker 5: always a something else after that, and then it just

751
00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:29,960
Speaker 5: never stopped. You see people fall out and it's big

752
00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:32,320
Speaker 5: issues or what's money, or it's something that happened in

753
00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:33,880
Speaker 5: the industry and done blew up so you don't know

754
00:33:33,880 --> 00:33:36,000
Speaker 5: about it. But now it's like, oh you still know

755
00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:37,200
Speaker 5: he was doing it. So she was like it just

756
00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:41,280
Speaker 5: started looking real sloppy. I'm good, right, I'm good. You

757
00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:42,640
Speaker 5: know what I mean. I took a lot of losses

758
00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:44,120
Speaker 5: because of that, Like you know what I'm saying. I

759
00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:46,320
Speaker 5: realized a lot of money I lost because of that

760
00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:51,080
Speaker 5: same situation, and just like you know what me personally, though,

761
00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:54,760
Speaker 5: I think some of the Sagittari's I think I was.

762
00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:59,320
Speaker 5: I was I felt like inside like hurt with certain

763
00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:01,280
Speaker 5: people that I just like look up to what I

764
00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:03,920
Speaker 5: thought was like, I don't care what nobody said, they

765
00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:06,080
Speaker 5: moving straight. You can't tell me nothing because I'm I've

766
00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:08,080
Speaker 5: been around. I know this person moving good. I know

767
00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:10,040
Speaker 5: they doing good like they you know, and when I

768
00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:13,359

773
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:26,040
Speaker 5: things like we all doing good, but if you start

789
00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:08,799

00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:10,480
Speaker 5: like what you're talking about. You know what I'm saying.

791
00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:13,960
Speaker 5: And I think that's like yeah, damn.

792
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:17,040
Speaker 2: So how how many how important do you think it

793
00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:18,200
Speaker 2: is to lead the people behind?

794
00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:18,279
Speaker 1: It?

795
00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:26,080
Speaker 5: Can't go extremely important people, extremely people and not when

796
00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:29,800
Speaker 5: I say left me like sometimes me because people with

797
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:32,640
Speaker 5: people around me, they're close. This is like I call family,

798
00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:35,400
Speaker 5: Like if I let you in, like we close, and like

799
00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:38,520
Speaker 5: if I feel like I personally just feel like as

800
00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:42,560
Speaker 5: growing and what I've learned, like people have expiration dates

801
00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:45,719
Speaker 5: in your lives. They do, whether you realize it or not.

802
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:47,880
Speaker 5: A lot of people say, you know, oh yeah, I've

803
00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:51,520
Speaker 5: been doing them twenty thirty forty years. Yeah, you probably have,

804
00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:54,840
Speaker 5: But twenty thirty forty years. We are two different people

805
00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:56,960
Speaker 5: right now, and probably the path that you own that

806
00:35:57,040 --> 00:35:59,319
Speaker 5: was happening to twenty thirty years ago, I'm not on

807
00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:02,560
Speaker 5: that path. That don't mean be mad, jealous, or envious

808
00:36:02,680 --> 00:36:05,160
Speaker 5: or hate because I'm not on that path. Even if

809
00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:08,440
Speaker 5: you don't want to be happy, don't spew hate. We

810
00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:10,960
Speaker 5: just went different paths. I'm not mad at your path,

811
00:36:11,200 --> 00:36:13,240
Speaker 5: whatever that may be, even if it's higher than mine,

812
00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:16,040
Speaker 5: even if it didn't go nowhere. That's your choice of

813
00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:18,400
Speaker 5: standing still in our moving. So don't be mad at

814
00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:21,279
Speaker 5: somebody else with how they gonna take off. But that's

815
00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:23,520
Speaker 5: what people do. That's this thing. And for me, I

816
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:26,279
Speaker 5: just watch certain stuff and it's I mean, I don't

817
00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:29,400
Speaker 5: care if it's two months or twenty years, if I

818
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:31,719
Speaker 5: ain't feeling it, if the energy ain't coming around, how

819
00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:34,560
Speaker 5: it's need to be for me, I got we gotta go.

820
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:37,719
Speaker 5: It's no beef. It ain't no long text message conversation.

821
00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:40,000
Speaker 5: Oh you know, I just for none of that. We

822
00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:42,000
Speaker 5: too grown to explain all that. Like we are in

823
00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:44,920
Speaker 5: an element of our lives. We gotta hold. That's it

824
00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:49,160
Speaker 5: higher by and it's no Caddy's shadiness. I ain't rolling

825
00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:51,719
Speaker 5: my eyes at you. I ain't talking about you or nothing. Hi,

827
00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:55,399
Speaker 5: chop it that, we ain't taking no selfies, none of that.

828
00:36:55,680 --> 00:36:57,680
Speaker 5: It's a respect. That's it. We're not a lot in

829
00:36:57,760 --> 00:37:00,799
Speaker 5: the same energy. We're not transparent, we don't we don't

830
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:03,160
Speaker 5: meet on the same level, mindset or nothing. We're not

00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:03,839
Speaker 5: going the same way.

832
00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:04,680
Speaker 1: It's neither one of.

00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:10,200
Speaker 2: Our faults, nobody's It's just some people can't accept that.

834
00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:12,520
Speaker 5: They can't and that's a lot of downfall, especially in

835
00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:14,520
Speaker 5: our culture. That's why you see jealousy, That's why you

836
00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:15,840
Speaker 5: see a lot of hate, That's why you see a

Speaker 5: be a party, it could be a bar, it could

921
00:41:02,239 --> 00:41:03,560
Speaker 5: be a laundry mat whatever.

922
00:41:03,760 --> 00:41:04,080
Speaker 4: But you go.

923
00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:06,120
Speaker 5: So you see somebody and you meet this person, and

924
00:41:06,600 --> 00:41:10,400
Speaker 5: as soon as you meet this person, your mindset tells

925
00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:13,000
Speaker 5: you what it is that you want and need in

926
00:41:13,040 --> 00:41:15,319
Speaker 5: your life. You know, if you want to play, you know,

927
00:41:15,400 --> 00:41:17,200
Speaker 5: if you want to be serious. You know, if you're

928
00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:19,800
Speaker 5: tired of playing, you know, if you're tired of being played,

929
00:41:20,400 --> 00:41:22,640
Speaker 5: you know, if you're just tied up all the shit

930
00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:26,120
Speaker 5: you've tied up. And maybe this somebody you thought was

931
00:41:26,160 --> 00:41:28,520
Speaker 5: cool a conversation now like and maybe somebody you talk

932
00:41:28,600 --> 00:41:29,719
Speaker 5: to it and it is the first time you meet

933
00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:32,200
Speaker 5: this person, and y'all talk and y'all just hit it off.

934
00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:36,320
Speaker 5: And when I mean hit it off meaning internally, emotionally,

935
00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:42,160
Speaker 5: like spiritually, everything connects, the conversation, the goals, the same path,

936
00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:47,160
Speaker 5: the same dreams, the same it's not always the same,

937
00:41:47,160 --> 00:41:49,640
Speaker 5: but some of the same failures or mistakes or hurt

938
00:41:49,719 --> 00:41:53,160
Speaker 5: so or pass and we all have a past. So

939
00:41:53,200 --> 00:41:57,719
Speaker 5: you just have to meet. I just honestly met my

940
00:41:57,800 --> 00:42:01,120
Speaker 5: husband and we just had a real honest conversation. I

941
00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:04,680
Speaker 5: am Trina. This is my life. This is everything in

942
00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:08,479
Speaker 5: my life. The stuff that you obviously probably heard, thought

943
00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:11,560
Speaker 5: or saw new for a fact, or didn't know or

944
00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:14,400
Speaker 5: wanted to know. None of that matters. I don't care

945
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:16,680
Speaker 5: about the YouTube, none of that. I'm sitting right here

946
00:42:16,719 --> 00:42:18,360
Speaker 5: next to you. Let's talk what you want to know.

947
00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:21,560
Speaker 5: Let's get it all out, Let's ask the questions. Yes,

948
00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:24,160
Speaker 5: no oh I thought, Oh it's a bit, I don't care.

949
00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:27,439
Speaker 5: No oh, this was a photo. Oh yeah, this did happen.

950
00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:29,840
Speaker 5: Oh this was that. That was just how it started,

951
00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:31,759
Speaker 5: and vice versa. He did the exact same thing to me,

952
00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:37,400
Speaker 5: and it was just the connection came like I've never

953
00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:42,640
Speaker 5: had a connection that was that honest and pure and real.

954
00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:46,839
Speaker 5: From the start. It always is more of an intimidation

955
00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:50,160
Speaker 5: and then I don't want to say a game, more

956
00:42:50,320 --> 00:42:54,399
Speaker 5: like I don't know, like this is her opponent, this

957
00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:57,040
Speaker 5: is her, So I don't know how to come. I

958
00:42:57,040 --> 00:43:00,600
Speaker 5: don't know, like what I gotta. You know, I'm coming

959
00:43:00,640 --> 00:43:02,480
Speaker 5: with stuff that you don't even probably to come with

960
00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:05,839
Speaker 5: the egos all bust up what you might want, and

961
00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:09,400
Speaker 5: that's not theosed to. So you are just be your

962
00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:13,080
Speaker 5: authentic self again. When you be your authentic self and

963
00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:14,920
Speaker 5: show up as you all the time, you're.

964
00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:22,239
Speaker 2: Gonna always everything everything you're in your conversation, everything that

965
00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:24,600
Speaker 2: you're feeling, whether you feel comfortable enough to sit and

966
00:43:24,640 --> 00:43:25,440
Speaker 2: be open and honest.

967
00:43:25,520 --> 00:43:29,919
Speaker 5: Uncomfortable conversations are what brings out the truth, the real

968
00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:34,000
Speaker 5: in you. The uncomfortable everything that's all the the the

969
00:43:34,320 --> 00:43:37,920
Speaker 5: good conversation, the butterfly, that's that's we hear that. But

970
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:42,440
Speaker 5: the uncomfortable conversations is what makes you understand this. Do

971
00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:44,480
Speaker 5: I want to be deep? This is deep? Do I

972
00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:46,960
Speaker 5: need to be deep with this person? The connection is

973
00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:50,480
Speaker 5: deep with this person. We're talking about stuff that I

974
00:43:50,680 --> 00:43:53,440
Speaker 5: don't want to tell nobody. My my homegirls, like some

975
00:43:53,480 --> 00:43:55,759
Speaker 5: of my friends, have been around for twenty years. But

976
00:43:55,880 --> 00:43:59,560
Speaker 5: now we build this connection. And that was the connection

977
00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:02,879
Speaker 5: I started. We started, and I just knew, I've heard

978
00:44:02,880 --> 00:44:07,960
Speaker 5: every conversation you could possibly think of. I've you know,

979
00:44:08,200 --> 00:44:12,640
Speaker 5: been in situations and good or bad. I always knew

980
00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:16,759
Speaker 5: for a fact for myself, despite what anybody thought or

981
00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:21,879
Speaker 5: said the Internet included, one thing about me is I'm

982
00:44:21,920 --> 00:44:25,640
Speaker 5: always going to give my authentic self me, all of me,

983
00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:28,040
Speaker 5: one hundred percent of me. If I don't feel that

984
00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:31,279
Speaker 5: you're giving that back, I'm not sticking around for that.

985
00:44:31,960 --> 00:44:34,080
Speaker 5: No matter what. We're not going to play the game.

986
00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:37,000
Speaker 5: We're not going to play the like love it, because

987
00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:40,000
Speaker 5: now we're putting ourself in another situation that doesn't make sense.

988
00:44:40,600 --> 00:44:43,160
Speaker 5: We're not going to be We're not going to align

989
00:44:43,360 --> 00:44:45,479
Speaker 5: right away with what I need and what you need.

990
00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:48,040
Speaker 5: There's no need for this. You understand what I'm saying.

991
00:44:48,239 --> 00:44:50,279
Speaker 5: It's something that's not going by way. I'm not the

992
00:44:50,320 --> 00:44:53,440
Speaker 5: girl that you know, and some girls you know have

993
00:44:53,600 --> 00:44:55,480
Speaker 5: if we all have our different ways. But I've been

994
00:44:55,480 --> 00:44:58,680
Speaker 5: in a situation and and it wasn't a faithful situation,

995
00:44:58,800 --> 00:45:00,520
Speaker 5: and I left. I didn't say I left. I never

996
00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:02,759
Speaker 5: told nobody I left, not even the internet. It's not

997
00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:04,759
Speaker 5: your business. If you find out you do, I don't care.

998
00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:07,719
Speaker 5: I don't care to clear it up or explain that

999
00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:11,640
Speaker 5: from myself. Really what made sense to me? This wasn't

1000
00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:14,440
Speaker 5: making sense. It's time to move on. We're grown, and

1001
00:45:14,520 --> 00:45:15,960
Speaker 5: I'm going to go on by my way. I'm going

1002
00:45:16,040 --> 00:45:17,480
Speaker 5: to continue to live my life, because what else do

1003
00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:19,560
Speaker 5: you do with your life? You don't stop living. You

1004
00:45:19,600 --> 00:45:23,040
Speaker 5: constantly live. You take life lessons, you learn, you value,

1005
00:45:23,560 --> 00:45:27,640
Speaker 5: you realize. You take your own accountability for when you know, well,

1006
00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:29,520
Speaker 5: maybe I'll overreade it. Maybe this wasn't or whatever. But

1007
00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:32,000
Speaker 5: you at the end of the day, you know if

1008
00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:33,640
Speaker 5: you need to be there, if you don't need to

1009
00:45:33,680 --> 00:45:36,239
Speaker 5: be there. And when I after being there and not

1010
00:45:36,360 --> 00:45:40,799
Speaker 5: being there for certain times, now I know I knew

1011
00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:43,200
Speaker 5: when this is what I wanted and I wanted to

1012
00:45:43,239 --> 00:45:46,440
Speaker 5: be here.

1013
00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:51,040
Speaker 1: Anything else about when I got big?

1014
00:45:54,480 --> 00:45:59,560
Speaker 3: So I'll be twenty four years, marriage book, movie on

1015
00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:03,359
Speaker 3: the way.

1016
00:46:03,400 --> 00:46:06,520
Speaker 5: Oh wow, man, it's just so much stuff I'm working on.

1017
00:46:07,080 --> 00:46:10,439
Speaker 4: I want to talk about Trina Day. I want to talk.

1018
00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:14,360
Speaker 5: I want to I want to get into that because it's.

1019
00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:18,279
Speaker 4: Such a big it's such a big thing like that.

1020
00:46:18,360 --> 00:46:21,680
Speaker 6: I feel like we need to discuss because you do

1021
00:46:21,760 --> 00:46:27,959
Speaker 6: it all by yourself. It's something that you came up with,

1022
00:46:28,200 --> 00:46:31,799
Speaker 6: something that you decided to put on, and when you

1023
00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:35,720
Speaker 6: first did it, it was like one of the biggest

1024
00:46:36,320 --> 00:46:41,799
Speaker 6: community based things ever that you kind of turned into for.

1025
00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:44,240
Speaker 4: Liberty City and Day County.

1026
00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:46,440
Speaker 6: So let's let's talk about that, Like how did you

1027
00:46:46,440 --> 00:46:49,120
Speaker 6: come up with the idea for Trina Day, Like all

1028
00:46:49,200 --> 00:46:52,520
Speaker 6: the all the nicks and nats and you know, the

1029
00:46:52,560 --> 00:46:55,719
Speaker 6: little tweaks that you did to it to make it

1030
00:46:55,920 --> 00:46:59,319
Speaker 6: Trina Day with the decorations and all of them, all

1031
00:46:59,360 --> 00:47:02,200
Speaker 6: of the stuff. How did you make it your day?

1032
00:47:02,520 --> 00:47:07,239
Speaker 5: So May fourteenth is the day, is the day of

1033
00:47:07,800 --> 00:47:10,399
Speaker 5: I have in the city. That's my day. So that's

1034
00:47:10,440 --> 00:47:14,200
Speaker 5: where Trina Day came from. I have this foundation called

1035
00:47:14,200 --> 00:47:18,160
Speaker 5: diamondov Foundation, Dimondoll Foundation. I had started years were maybe

1036
00:47:18,160 --> 00:47:20,760
Speaker 5: be like two thousand and eleven or twelve or whatever,

1037
00:47:21,080 --> 00:47:24,359
Speaker 5: and it was basically like for women, right, women that

1038
00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:27,560
Speaker 5: were have been through all kinds of stuff, dealing with

1039
00:47:27,600 --> 00:47:29,719
Speaker 5: all kinds of stuff. It could be you know, run

1040
00:47:29,760 --> 00:47:34,640
Speaker 5: away pregnancy, teenage pregnancy, molestation, abuse, all these things. And

1041
00:47:34,640 --> 00:47:36,319
Speaker 5: I would go to these group homes and kind of

1042
00:47:36,480 --> 00:47:38,279
Speaker 5: we will go give makeovers and give back stuff to

1043
00:47:38,280 --> 00:47:39,319
Speaker 5: the women. And I don't think.

1044
00:47:39,239 --> 00:47:41,399
Speaker 4: People understand, like how long you've been doing that?

1045
00:47:41,520 --> 00:47:43,879
Speaker 5: So long, so so long for these women. And when

1046
00:47:43,880 --> 00:47:46,800
Speaker 5: you go to these places and the beauty of the

1047
00:47:46,920 --> 00:47:49,200
Speaker 5: day was, you know, to make it specially and you know,

1048
00:47:49,239 --> 00:47:51,360
Speaker 5: get them all dolled up and give them hope and

1049
00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:53,959
Speaker 5: and make them feel good. And some of them would

1050
00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:58,880
Speaker 5: be like so afraid to even come out, and they've

1051
00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:00,799
Speaker 5: been through so much in life it would make me

1052
00:48:00,880 --> 00:48:03,200
Speaker 5: just sad. I would just look at them like, wow,

1053
00:48:03,239 --> 00:48:05,520
Speaker 5: I just couldn't imagine. You know, it's just like being

1054
00:48:05,719 --> 00:48:08,000
Speaker 5: a woman and just out here by yourself but nowhere

1055
00:48:08,040 --> 00:48:10,440
Speaker 5: to go, don't know where to turn to, Like you know,

1056
00:48:10,480 --> 00:48:13,520
Speaker 5: whether you were a child, a girl that got raaped,

1057
00:48:13,520 --> 00:48:14,719
Speaker 5: then you have a kid, you had nowhere to go

1058
00:48:14,719 --> 00:48:16,040
Speaker 5: when you was out on the streets and nobody to

1059
00:48:16,080 --> 00:48:17,800
Speaker 5: take care of you, whether he was getting off drugs,

1060
00:48:17,840 --> 00:48:20,880
Speaker 5: whether you was beating, whatever was your thing. I saw

1061
00:48:20,960 --> 00:48:22,839
Speaker 5: all of this in these homes that I go and

1062
00:48:22,880 --> 00:48:26,960
Speaker 5: give back to, and I was just like, you know, wow,

1063
00:48:27,120 --> 00:48:29,239
Speaker 5: Like it's just so much stuff that happens in our

1064
00:48:29,400 --> 00:48:32,040
Speaker 5: community that we just live in our lives every day

1065
00:48:32,040 --> 00:48:35,319
Speaker 5: and we don't even really know or understand that's going on.

1066
00:48:35,480 --> 00:48:39,480
Speaker 5: So that's kind of how it started. And then fast forward,

1067
00:48:40,040 --> 00:48:42,920
Speaker 5: it was more like that's that was the start of it.

1068
00:48:42,960 --> 00:48:45,359
Speaker 5: I would just go every year and give back all

1069
00:48:45,360 --> 00:48:48,840
Speaker 5: the toys and I mean clothing and just money and

1070
00:48:48,880 --> 00:48:52,400
Speaker 5: stuff for these homes, and then I would do a

1071
00:48:52,400 --> 00:48:56,560
Speaker 5: lot of the hospitals for kids right right, and that

1072
00:48:56,680 --> 00:48:58,880
Speaker 5: was too much for me. It was unbearable because it

1073
00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:01,440
Speaker 5: was like the kids sick and some of them they

1074
00:49:01,440 --> 00:49:04,160
Speaker 5: were like in different incubators and stuff. You couldn't touch

1075
00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:05,960
Speaker 5: them or simmer. You have certain toys stuf you could

1076
00:49:05,960 --> 00:49:08,600
Speaker 5: give to them. But that was like breaking me. It's

1077
00:49:08,600 --> 00:49:11,160
Speaker 5: heartbreaking out. I was like, oh this, I couldn't do it.

1078
00:49:11,200 --> 00:49:12,799
Speaker 5: I was just like, this is too much. It was

1079
00:49:13,200 --> 00:49:15,360
Speaker 5: very sensitive. But I would just give them stuff and

1080
00:49:15,719 --> 00:49:18,920
Speaker 5: they have a certain list of things that they can

1081
00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:24,720
Speaker 5: accept and stuff they can't accept, and so move forward.

1082
00:49:26,160 --> 00:49:28,400
Speaker 5: I turned it into this community thing now. I just

1083
00:49:28,600 --> 00:49:31,640
Speaker 5: was like, it's so many kids in the community that

1084
00:49:32,040 --> 00:49:35,200
Speaker 5: you know their parents. They don't They're not able to

1085
00:49:35,200 --> 00:49:37,840
Speaker 5: show up like they do something to look forward to.

1086
00:49:38,080 --> 00:49:40,319
Speaker 5: They don't have it's no hope, it's nothing to do.

1087
00:49:40,360 --> 00:49:42,160
Speaker 5: They don't have the money. They can't take them to

1088
00:49:42,200 --> 00:49:44,280
Speaker 5: the museums when it comes. They can't do certain things.

1089
00:49:44,600 --> 00:49:46,600
Speaker 5: You know, it's holidays, it's Christmas. A lot of kids

1090
00:49:46,640 --> 00:49:48,640
Speaker 5: don't get Christmas gifts of toys and stuff like that.

1091
00:49:48,719 --> 00:49:52,319
Speaker 5: So let me take it to the streets and let's

1139
00:52:06,160 --> 00:52:10,400
Speaker 6: and spiritual level to know that you're able to provide

1140
00:52:10,440 --> 00:52:14,759
Speaker 6: that to an entire community of people and also at

1141
00:52:14,760 --> 00:52:19,239

1142
00:52:19,320 --> 00:52:23,520
Speaker 5: It's emotional. It's a lot. You know, my mom have

1143
00:52:23,560 --> 00:52:25,960
Speaker 5: a store like right in the city where I do

1144
00:52:26,040 --> 00:52:29,320
Speaker 5: it at. I owned the store, but it's not open.

1145
00:52:29,320 --> 00:52:31,160
Speaker 5: It's just a building. I owned the building, but I

1146
00:52:31,160 --> 00:52:33,520
Speaker 5: haven't made it into anything yet. It's been closed down

1147
00:52:33,520 --> 00:52:35,320
Speaker 5: for years. It's just there. I have like a mural

1148
00:52:35,360 --> 00:52:38,319
Speaker 5: on it, right But just to go back to the

1149
00:52:38,360 --> 00:52:41,080
Speaker 5: city where I grew up at, in the same hood,

1150
00:52:41,160 --> 00:52:43,000
Speaker 5: in the same area and the same place as the

1151
00:52:43,040 --> 00:52:47,480
Speaker 5: same street I walked, and it's so different, different than

1152
00:52:47,520 --> 00:52:49,080
Speaker 5: when I was walking on the street of growing up

1153
00:52:49,120 --> 00:52:52,799
Speaker 5: on the street, and when I came up, I would

1154
00:52:52,800 --> 00:52:55,759
Speaker 5: always give my friends stuff, like, you know, I was

1155
00:52:56,000 --> 00:52:58,200
Speaker 5: a little bit more fortunate, like you know, my mom,

1156
00:52:58,960 --> 00:53:02,399
Speaker 5: you know, had money, so I would I would give

1157
00:53:02,480 --> 00:53:05,319
Speaker 5: my friends everything. Like if I buy something, I'm gonna

1158
00:53:05,320 --> 00:53:07,279
Speaker 5: buy two. I'm buying my friends something. I'm gonna what

1159
00:53:07,520 --> 00:53:10,360
Speaker 5: was with me? Everybody's gonna get something. Across the street

1160
00:53:10,400 --> 00:53:12,359
Speaker 5: from my mom's house where I live, where we grew

1161
00:53:12,440 --> 00:53:17,319
Speaker 5: up at, the family there, they were less fortunate. It

1162
00:53:17,440 --> 00:53:20,799
Speaker 5: was so many of them. It was like maybe six

1163
00:53:20,880 --> 00:53:23,640
Speaker 5: adults and like fifteen kids. So everybody that got their kids,

1164
00:53:23,640 --> 00:53:26,920
Speaker 5: they all live here with the grandmother's sweetest nice lady.

1165
00:53:27,480 --> 00:53:29,600
Speaker 5: And I would notice, you know, like when it's the holidays,

1166
00:53:29,600 --> 00:53:32,040
Speaker 5: it's Christmas, all this stuff, like they wouldn't really have stuff.

1167
00:53:32,719 --> 00:53:36,560
Speaker 5: And so as I was growing up growing up, this

1168
00:53:36,600 --> 00:53:40,919
Speaker 5: is before I even started doing music, we would give

1169
00:53:41,760 --> 00:53:43,759
Speaker 5: bags of stuff to them. I would just ship take

1170
00:53:43,800 --> 00:53:46,919
Speaker 5: everything out from me, my sisters, my friends, my little brother,

1171
00:53:47,760 --> 00:53:50,480
Speaker 5: everybody that I knew that was like, they don't want

1172
00:53:50,480 --> 00:53:52,400
Speaker 5: they sneakers them all they got extra clothes overay, they

1173
00:53:52,440 --> 00:53:54,799
Speaker 5: don't want stuff or whatever. I would bag everything up,

1174
00:53:54,840 --> 00:53:57,520
Speaker 5: tied up, and we would just ship like twenty thirty

1175
00:53:57,520 --> 00:53:58,920
Speaker 5: bags of stuff to them from the street. And then

1176
00:53:58,920 --> 00:54:01,279
Speaker 5: you would see the kids. They fresh going to school

1177
00:54:01,320 --> 00:54:02,879
Speaker 5: now they got on all they think this is all

1178
00:54:02,920 --> 00:54:04,880
Speaker 5: new to them, you know what I'm saying. So I

1179
00:54:05,000 --> 00:54:08,400
Speaker 5: just always did that and saw that, and now that

1180
00:54:08,680 --> 00:54:12,439
Speaker 5: I have my day and I know this was one

1181
00:54:12,480 --> 00:54:16,960
Speaker 5: house of people and family the city, in the community,

1182
00:54:17,000 --> 00:54:21,720
Speaker 5: there's so many more nothing. Nobody's dropping off, no bags,

1183
00:54:21,760 --> 00:54:25,080
Speaker 5: nobody's dropping off, no clothes. No, the parents don't have

1184
00:54:25,120 --> 00:54:27,440
Speaker 5: extra money for the ice cream trucks or the stuff

1185
00:54:27,440 --> 00:54:30,359
Speaker 5: that the kids even had want. And that's the day

1190
00:54:39,760 --> 00:54:43,760

1242
00:57:16,680 --> 00:57:20,640
Speaker 5: this is an industry that will build you up and

1243
00:57:20,680 --> 00:57:23,880
Speaker 5: will drag you all the way back down. So if

1244
00:57:23,920 --> 00:57:27,240
Speaker 5: you are planning to come into this industry, you need

1251
00:57:54,920 --> 00:57:58,400
Speaker 5: because the Internet have you so unfocused. Everybody's watching everything

1252
00:57:58,400 --> 00:58:01,480
Speaker 5: and what everybody else doing. So many girls that I

1253
00:58:01,520 --> 00:58:04,840
Speaker 5: love in the game and that haven't made it yet,

1254
00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:08,720
Speaker 5: they're on their way, but they're struggling because they're caught

1255
00:58:08,800 --> 00:58:11,280
Speaker 5: up in what everybody else is doing on social media,

1256
00:58:11,520 --> 00:58:13,680
Speaker 5: what every other girl is doing as an artist, and

1257
00:58:13,720 --> 00:58:15,880
Speaker 5: they can't find their own way. They can't navigate their

1258
00:58:15,880 --> 00:58:17,920
Speaker 5: own way if they don't feel like they're doing what

1259
00:58:17,960 --> 00:58:20,800
Speaker 5: everybody else is doing. That's how you get lost. That's

1260
00:58:20,800 --> 00:58:24,720
Speaker 5: how you get unmotivated. That's how you lose the energy

1261
00:58:24,760 --> 00:58:28,560
Speaker 5: you want to even do this, you know, And it's

1262
00:58:28,600 --> 00:58:30,840
Speaker 5: a tough business. You know, it's a lot of girls,

1263
00:58:31,040 --> 00:58:34,520
Speaker 5: a lot of glitz and glamour, but then it's a

1264
00:58:34,560 --> 00:58:38,000
Speaker 5: lot of smoke and mirror. It's not all the glamor

1265
00:58:38,040 --> 00:58:40,520
Speaker 5: you think it is. When you're in the business, it's

1266
00:58:40,560 --> 00:58:42,680
Speaker 5: a lot of decisions. It's a lot of hard work

1267
00:58:42,920 --> 00:58:48,000
Speaker 5: and a lot of hard work. And just because you

1268
00:58:48,000 --> 00:58:51,680
Speaker 5: could get in a studio and create a record, and

1269
00:58:51,840 --> 00:58:54,480
Speaker 5: could build a content and could work in a video

1270
00:58:55,200 --> 00:59:03,320
Speaker 5: and you know, pop it behind, that's where what do

1271
00:59:03,680 --> 00:59:07,120
Speaker 5: I really want to do? Kickseeing that because this is

1272
00:59:07,160 --> 00:59:09,560
Speaker 5: only for the content. When that content is over, which

1273
00:59:09,560 --> 00:59:11,800
Speaker 5: we all watch for twenty four hours or one day

1274
00:59:11,880 --> 00:59:14,600
Speaker 5: or whatever the viral moment is, and three days later,

1275
00:59:14,960 --> 00:59:17,880
Speaker 5: Now what I haven't found my moment. I didn't do

1276
00:59:17,880 --> 00:59:20,600
Speaker 5: the steps I needed to do to be an artist

1277
00:59:20,680 --> 00:59:22,640
Speaker 5: in this game. I didn't. I didn't.

1278
00:59:23,800 --> 00:59:25,760
Speaker 2: You ain't got em after that moment.

1279
00:59:25,840 --> 00:59:28,160
Speaker 5: You gotta, you gotta. You have to have a plan.

1280
00:59:28,320 --> 00:59:30,840
Speaker 5: You have to build a brand for yourself. You have

1281
00:59:30,920 --> 00:59:34,040
Speaker 5: to know exactly what you want to do, execute it,

1282
00:59:34,320 --> 00:59:37,200
Speaker 5: and do it no matter what, do it. If something

1283
00:59:37,200 --> 00:59:38,720
Speaker 5: don't work out your way, you ain't liking it. They

1284
00:59:38,720 --> 00:59:42,000
Speaker 5: don't mean give up. That means maybe reevaluate, refresh up

1285
00:59:42,000 --> 00:59:45,120
Speaker 5: your little your starting kid. But just keep pushing, just

1286
00:59:45,200 --> 00:59:47,960
Speaker 5: keep moving. Stop being in the competition, in the race

1287
00:59:48,080 --> 00:59:51,240
Speaker 5: with everybody else. It's a thousand girls on social media

1288
00:59:51,280 --> 00:59:53,440
Speaker 5: that's artists or up and coming artists. And as you

1289
00:59:53,480 --> 00:59:56,720
Speaker 5: can see, you see the time when somebody gets signed

1290
00:59:56,720 --> 00:59:58,360
Speaker 5: and the hype when somebody else blowing up and the

1291
00:59:58,400 --> 01:00:01,040
Speaker 5: songs getting bigger. But these the same girls was once

1292
01:00:01,160 --> 01:00:03,920
Speaker 5: you too, trying to get that hype or get that spot,

1293
01:00:04,040 --> 01:00:06,200
Speaker 5: or get that one record or that whatever that hit

1294
01:00:06,320 --> 01:00:08,560
Speaker 5: or whatever. They were there too, So it's no way

1295
01:00:08,920 --> 01:00:12,800
Speaker 5: to cheat the grind. Fact, you have to grind. You

1296
01:00:12,800 --> 01:00:15,360
Speaker 5: cannot cheat the grind. I don't know people white people

1297
01:00:15,400 --> 01:00:17,280
Speaker 5: think that you cannot cheat the grind. You gotta be

1298
01:00:17,320 --> 01:00:19,760
Speaker 5: willing to put in the work because what you get,

1299
01:00:19,920 --> 01:00:21,800
Speaker 5: what you put into it is exactly what you're gonna

1300
01:00:21,840 --> 01:00:23,640
Speaker 5: get out of it. If you put nothing into it,

1301
01:00:23,920 --> 01:00:26,000
Speaker 5: Please do not expect nothing out of it, because that's

1302
01:00:26,040 --> 01:00:30,760
Speaker 5: not the way the real world works. No, for sure,

1303
01:00:30,880 --> 01:00:33,600
Speaker 5: I encourage you guys like the girls, I like, you know,

1304
01:00:34,120 --> 01:00:36,320
Speaker 5: I push forward for you guys. You guys just need

1307
01:00:43,280 --> 01:00:45,040
Speaker 5: if this is what I want to do, then there's

1308
01:00:45,080 --> 01:00:46,960
Speaker 5: certain elements and things that I have to do to

1309
01:00:47,000 --> 01:00:49,200
Speaker 5: make this work. You have to treat it as such.

1310
01:00:49,640 --> 01:00:51,400
Speaker 5: If it's a hobby, you're gonna treat it like a hobby.

1311
01:00:51,520 --> 01:00:53,440
Speaker 5: If you want a career, you could look at you

1312
01:00:53,440 --> 01:00:56,080
Speaker 5: could look in the industry and tell who really pushing

1313
01:00:56,120 --> 01:00:59,160
Speaker 5: and focusing on careers, who really investing into themselves, who's

1314
01:00:59,200 --> 01:01:01,200
Speaker 5: really putting a stuff out there, who started from there.

1315
01:01:01,200 --> 01:01:03,760
Speaker 5: You probably heard some of these records and probably on

1316
01:01:03,800 --> 01:01:05,600
Speaker 5: the underground or something. They know. Now we go with

1317
01:01:05,680 --> 01:01:07,640
Speaker 5: two years later, Oh, it's hottest record in the city,

1318
01:01:08,200 --> 01:01:11,160
Speaker 5: and but that just comes with work and constantly pushing

1319
01:01:11,240 --> 01:01:13,640
Speaker 5: and constantly like now we're in a bigger space with

1320
01:01:13,720 --> 01:01:15,520
Speaker 5: social media. Guys, you gotta be you gotta be a

1321
01:01:15,960 --> 01:01:18,280
Speaker 5: young girls. You need to be a business woman. Okay,

1322
01:01:18,520 --> 01:01:20,000
Speaker 5: you need to be a business woman. Because you don't

1323
01:01:20,000 --> 01:01:21,840
Speaker 5: have to do business, You're not gonna be able to

1324
01:01:21,840 --> 01:01:23,880
Speaker 5: do anything else. You know, none of this, all this

1325
01:01:23,880 --> 01:01:26,200
Speaker 5: stuff is not gonna make sense, no deals to label,

1326
01:01:26,240 --> 01:01:29,320
Speaker 5: all that stuff is crashing down. So you have to

1327
01:01:29,400 --> 01:01:32,440
Speaker 5: be a business woman in order to be in this business.

1328
01:01:33,040 --> 01:01:35,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, we know you did radio. You might need to

1329
01:01:35,080 --> 01:01:38,360
Speaker 1: do a podcast treating. Yeah, no need the baddest podcast.

1330
01:01:39,040 --> 01:01:41,520
Speaker 5: Let me tell you. I did learn something as an

1331
01:01:41,560 --> 01:01:44,640
Speaker 5: artist about radio that I had to learn, and even

1332
01:01:44,720 --> 01:01:46,920
Speaker 5: for myself was a learning experience because when I got

1333
01:01:46,960 --> 01:01:50,680
Speaker 5: on radio, people were blowing me up, like play these

1334
01:01:50,720 --> 01:01:53,200
Speaker 5: records and play all these songs. I thought, we're gonna

1335
01:01:53,200 --> 01:01:54,520
Speaker 5: get on there, We're gonna play with what we want

1336
01:01:54,520 --> 01:01:57,000
Speaker 5: to play Like that we got up there, they had

1337
01:01:57,040 --> 01:02:00,320
Speaker 5: a list of what the higher up, So this is

1338
01:02:00,320 --> 01:02:02,560
Speaker 5: what you're gonna be playing. You ain't playing your favorite

1339
01:02:04,000 --> 01:02:06,080
Speaker 5: I would have playing beyond say all day already kick

1340
01:02:06,120 --> 01:02:08,480
Speaker 5: me on radio, No, we're not doing that. There was

1341
01:02:08,560 --> 01:02:10,720
Speaker 5: a list of that what you're gonna play. And I

1342
01:02:10,840 --> 01:02:12,919
Speaker 5: had to understand it because even myself as an artist,

1343
01:02:13,000 --> 01:02:15,280
Speaker 5: I this is ti I'm able to tell, you know, girls,

1344
01:02:15,440 --> 01:02:18,600
Speaker 5: and like we were sensitive about our stuff. And when

1345
01:02:18,640 --> 01:02:20,760
Speaker 5: you were artist and you're not getting radio play your

1346
01:02:20,800 --> 01:02:22,720
Speaker 5: songs and the red people just think you're gonna walk

1347
01:02:22,760 --> 01:02:24,240
Speaker 5: up and just your song get on radio play because

1348
01:02:24,240 --> 01:02:26,200
Speaker 5: that's the record. It don't work like that. It does

1349
01:02:26,400 --> 01:02:29,960
Speaker 5: not work. It does not work like that. And when

1350
01:02:29,960 --> 01:02:32,480
Speaker 5: you when you're an artist and you behind the scene,

1351
01:02:32,560 --> 01:02:34,760
Speaker 5: I mean you're not behind the radio scene. You don't

1352
01:02:34,760 --> 01:02:36,520
Speaker 5: know you understand the power of radio. You argue with

1353
01:02:36,560 --> 01:02:38,439
Speaker 5: your label, you're mad, you feel like you're not getting

1354
01:02:38,440 --> 01:02:40,400
Speaker 5: exposed to why it is no radio play? Why this

1355
01:02:40,520 --> 01:02:42,000
Speaker 5: that I hear this record on the radio all the time.

1356
01:02:42,160 --> 01:02:44,080
Speaker 5: You don't know the dynamics of what goes behind that.

1357
01:02:44,480 --> 01:02:48,760
Speaker 5: And I learned that myself, how much bag is behind

1358
01:02:49,320 --> 01:02:51,120
Speaker 5: let's talk about that. And that's what I had to

1359
01:02:51,240 --> 01:02:53,720
Speaker 5: learn and I understood. So I knew, like, oh, so

1360
01:02:53,880 --> 01:02:55,680
Speaker 5: this what happened to my record that was on radio?

1361
01:02:55,680 --> 01:02:57,600
Speaker 5: And they did do this? So this what And as

1362
01:02:57,720 --> 01:03:00,560
Speaker 5: just being a mature artist and going how the season

1363
01:03:00,640 --> 01:03:03,640
Speaker 5: seeing it, I understand now. I totally get it now,

1364
01:03:03,680 --> 01:03:05,720
Speaker 5: And so many artists don't understand that. They don't have

1365
01:03:05,800 --> 01:03:07,880
Speaker 5: a clue. They haven't even got to that level even

1366
01:03:08,080 --> 01:03:10,920
Speaker 5: wanting to understand what that means. But radio it definitely

1367
01:03:10,960 --> 01:03:11,360
Speaker 5: taught me that.

1368
01:03:12,240 --> 01:03:15,840
