WEBVTT - Faith Over Feelings ( NBA YoungBoy Complex Interview BreakDown) 0:00:02.279 --> 0:00:04.720 I'm a homegrowl that knows a little bit about everything 0:00:04.800 --> 0:00:05.640 and everybody. 0:00:06.519 --> 0:00:10.080 You know, if you don't lie about that. Right, Hey, 0:00:10.119 --> 0:00:10.760 y'all's up. 0:00:10.840 --> 0:00:13.480 It's Laura and Rosa and this is the latest with 0:00:13.560 --> 0:00:16.480 laurynl Rosa. This is your daily tag on all things 0:00:16.520 --> 0:00:21.160 pop culture, entertainment, news, and all of the conversations. 0:00:20.320 --> 0:00:21.279 That shake the room. 0:00:21.360 --> 0:00:24.760 Baby checking in behind the scenes of the grind, which 0:00:24.800 --> 0:00:27.600 is where we get on in behind scenes of just 0:00:27.720 --> 0:00:29.560 kind of like the day to day's happening was not 0:00:29.680 --> 0:00:35.680 happening all of the things, y'all. Today was such a 0:00:35.800 --> 0:00:39.760 day at work. I'm feeling so unsure of myself. Oh, 0:00:40.000 --> 0:00:42.240 I just had to get that out. I recorded a 0:00:42.320 --> 0:00:44.680 video coming here and this, you know what's so crazy. 0:00:45.360 --> 0:00:45.839 It's like. 0:00:47.600 --> 0:00:50.760 It's not sure I'm as sure of my capabilities. I 0:00:50.760 --> 0:00:54.000 think I'm trying to figure out like when missteps happened, 0:00:54.440 --> 0:00:55.440 I'm trying to figure out. 0:00:55.360 --> 0:00:58.240 Like what the root causes, Like what is it? 0:00:58.760 --> 0:01:01.520 What's happening within my mind and in my brain and 0:01:01.520 --> 0:01:04.600 are making me feel like I'm not owning my space 0:01:04.640 --> 0:01:06.759 to what it I should be. I think we talked 0:01:06.760 --> 0:01:09.200 a little bit about that, you know before a few 0:01:09.240 --> 0:01:11.800 days ago when we checked it behind the scenes of 0:01:11.800 --> 0:01:13.440 the ground, and that's just been like a constant thing 0:01:13.480 --> 0:01:15.680 for me this week and a little bit of last 0:01:15.680 --> 0:01:17.680 week as well too. I'd be so honest with y'all. 0:01:18.440 --> 0:01:20.680 I get on here and just like treat y'all like 0:01:20.760 --> 0:01:23.039 y'all are like my diary or something. So low riders 0:01:23.200 --> 0:01:25.440 don't ever say I don't give y'all nothing, because I'd 0:01:25.440 --> 0:01:28.280 be giving y'all all the inside scoop. But yeah, I 0:01:28.319 --> 0:01:30.800 think it's just I don't know, there's just been a 0:01:34.760 --> 0:01:37.400 I mean, there is an added pressure. Not really though, 0:01:37.480 --> 0:01:42.319 but I guess so ish. I think that's a self 0:01:42.760 --> 0:01:45.840 proclamation though, Like I think when things start to feel 0:01:45.840 --> 0:01:47.600 like they're at a pressure, they only are if you 0:01:47.680 --> 0:01:51.000 treat life or whatever the situation is like, there is 0:01:51.000 --> 0:01:52.880 added pressure. So I don't even want to give into 0:01:52.960 --> 0:01:56.240 that because that's not what I'm feeling. Maybe it's a 0:01:56.440 --> 0:01:57.520 it's not overwhelming. 0:01:59.040 --> 0:02:00.960 I don't know, y'all. Can you can't describe it, can't 0:02:00.960 --> 0:02:02.760 explain it. But I'm just off my pivot a little bit. 0:02:03.240 --> 0:02:05.400 I'm aware though, as you guys see, because I'm telling 0:02:05.440 --> 0:02:09.560 you guys so trying to just hone in on what 0:02:09.680 --> 0:02:13.919 it is. One of the things that I did this 0:02:14.000 --> 0:02:20.040 week that I prioritize this week was organization. And I 0:02:20.040 --> 0:02:24.680 think organization didn't really matter as much when I was 0:02:24.720 --> 0:02:28.640 coming from a place where like, I don't know, it. 0:02:28.760 --> 0:02:30.079 Just not even that organization. 0:02:30.120 --> 0:02:34.639 It's not that it didn't matter, Organization just wasn't It's 0:02:34.680 --> 0:02:37.359 never been a priority for me. Like I've always thought 0:02:37.400 --> 0:02:39.920 it's cool. I'm good because I can operate in chaos. 0:02:40.080 --> 0:02:43.320 And I do think now that I am caring more 0:02:43.320 --> 0:02:45.160 about when I'm putting out into the world, how I'm 0:02:45.160 --> 0:02:50.040 putting it out with the conversations I'm having are because 0:02:50.160 --> 0:02:52.040 you know, I think when your name is on the line, 0:02:52.080 --> 0:02:53.560 there's just a lot more on the line. 0:02:53.960 --> 0:02:56.720 Organization is just like so much. It means so much to. 0:02:56.720 --> 0:02:59.280 Me because the more organized I am, I think, the 0:02:59.360 --> 0:03:03.519 better I'm able to understand the what, the why, and 0:03:03.600 --> 0:03:06.760 the relevancy behind anything I'm talking about. But also like 0:03:07.000 --> 0:03:10.840 even if I'm on an island strained it by myself, 0:03:11.000 --> 0:03:14.880 and I don't mean physically, I mean like just mentally, right, Like, 0:03:14.960 --> 0:03:17.160 if I'm on this island all alone and I have 0:03:17.280 --> 0:03:20.480 to debate my way out of anything, I always think 0:03:20.480 --> 0:03:23.639 about this, Like if I'm in a courtroom and I'm 0:03:23.639 --> 0:03:25.600 the only person that believes that this person is innocent 0:03:25.600 --> 0:03:27.440 in this courtroom, the only thing that is going to 0:03:27.480 --> 0:03:31.080 save me is factual information, but not just that, the 0:03:31.200 --> 0:03:34.000 organization of it and how it's presented. So I think 0:03:34.040 --> 0:03:35.840 that's one of the things behind the scenes of the 0:03:35.840 --> 0:03:38.880 grind that like I'm really trying to sharpen. I've never 0:03:38.880 --> 0:03:41.680 really been a person that has been the most organized. 0:03:43.280 --> 0:03:47.880 I think most leaders that are creators have a central 0:03:48.000 --> 0:03:51.280 organization because you're delegating and stuff like that. But I 0:03:51.320 --> 0:03:56.280 think there with more responsibility just comes heavy as the 0:03:56.320 --> 0:03:58.600 head that words the crown. Like the more responsible, the 0:03:58.600 --> 0:04:02.120 more responsibility requires a different level of you. So I 0:04:02.200 --> 0:04:04.040 don't know if maybe like that's what's happening, Like I'm 0:04:04.040 --> 0:04:09.280 being pushed to like this next level of like okay, delegate, Okay, 0:04:09.640 --> 0:04:14.640 open your mouth when things are not right, Okay the girl, 0:04:14.920 --> 0:04:18.240 Like I think that's where I'm being pushed to. So 0:04:18.320 --> 0:04:20.640 today has been like a tug of war for me, 0:04:20.920 --> 0:04:23.720 just like mentally, because it's a battle when. 0:04:25.240 --> 0:04:27.200 Like you naturally like eat, sleep. 0:04:26.960 --> 0:04:31.120 And breathe certain things and then things are not a 0:04:31.200 --> 0:04:34.159 hundred things are not moving out one hundred percent as 0:04:34.200 --> 0:04:37.680 if you do that, like, and that's what like freaks 0:04:37.720 --> 0:04:41.400 me out about this, this whole you know, feeling of. 0:04:41.320 --> 0:04:43.040 Like unsure of myself. 0:04:43.240 --> 0:04:45.240 I've never been a person that's ever been unsure about 0:04:45.279 --> 0:04:53.000 myself and unsure about myself in anything. So so it's 0:04:53.040 --> 0:04:56.000 two things. It's the fact that I'm not in a 0:04:56.040 --> 0:04:58.640 new space, Like it's not like I'm walking into a 0:04:58.720 --> 0:05:03.280 new career path and I'm having to figure out do 0:05:03.320 --> 0:05:06.000 I like it here? Why am I even here? How 0:05:06.040 --> 0:05:09.599 does my you know, skill set, my capability even progress 0:05:09.720 --> 0:05:12.000 me in the space that I am in? That is 0:05:12.040 --> 0:05:15.880 not it, because this is what I've been doing. I've 0:05:15.920 --> 0:05:19.480 in a new space physically, but this is the lane 0:05:19.480 --> 0:05:21.919 of things that I've been doing for some time. So 0:05:22.000 --> 0:05:24.640 I'm like, what the heck, Like what's happening? Like why 0:05:24.720 --> 0:05:25.680 is my ag game off? 0:05:25.760 --> 0:05:26.800 Like what is going on? 0:05:27.400 --> 0:05:30.159 And then secondly, it's you know, feeling unsure about yourself 0:05:30.240 --> 0:05:32.880 is just a very it's a very hard concept to 0:05:32.920 --> 0:05:35.719 grassom you've never been through that, But I try to. 0:05:36.040 --> 0:05:40.320 Like one of the things I told myself today was 0:05:40.360 --> 0:05:42.800 that I'm not giving that too much light, Like I'm 0:05:42.839 --> 0:05:44.920 gonna sit in the feeling of how I feel today, 0:05:45.400 --> 0:05:47.000 I'm gonna talk about it. I'm gonna get it out, 0:05:47.040 --> 0:05:50.120 and once I do that, you not getting much else 0:05:50.160 --> 0:05:53.680 from me on that whatsoever, because I think it's I 0:05:53.720 --> 0:05:57.359 feel like the feeling of being unsure lends to like 0:05:57.400 --> 0:06:01.719 the feeling of like faith. And for me, whenever I 0:06:01.839 --> 0:06:05.000 don't know what's about to happen in one of these 0:06:05.080 --> 0:06:09.160 like nightmare spots in life where you can't control what's 0:06:09.200 --> 0:06:11.080 going on, and like, you know, things just feel so 0:06:11.160 --> 0:06:15.440 heavy whatever. Not like workwise, but just like in life 0:06:15.440 --> 0:06:18.760 in general, Like whenever I'm in like a very crazy, 0:06:18.760 --> 0:06:22.000 weird space where like you really can't control much of anything. 0:06:22.480 --> 0:06:24.120 The only thing that I control. 0:06:23.880 --> 0:06:26.000 Is the amount of faith that I have in God 0:06:26.080 --> 0:06:29.120 to like just allow me to do what I naturally 0:06:29.160 --> 0:06:32.280 do in situations we talked the other day. If you 0:06:32.360 --> 0:06:34.919 missed that podcast episode, make sure you go back and 0:06:34.960 --> 0:06:39.760 listen to it. But in situations I always am trusting 0:06:39.800 --> 0:06:42.719 God that I will figure it out, and I do 0:06:43.720 --> 0:06:46.400 in situations where I've learned that it is not my 0:06:46.640 --> 0:06:49.719 job to figure things out. I can't solve everyone's issues. 0:06:49.800 --> 0:06:52.919 I can't be you know, like I can't be the 0:06:53.000 --> 0:06:56.279 crutch for everybody, like I just can't. I trust God, 0:06:56.320 --> 0:06:58.760 and I have faith in God to give me that 0:06:58.839 --> 0:07:03.400 like intuition of like no, Lauren is you gotta say no, No, Lauren, 0:07:03.560 --> 0:07:06.680 you gotta put your foot down. No Lauren is see something, 0:07:06.720 --> 0:07:09.760 say something, you know what I mean. So my faith 0:07:09.840 --> 0:07:15.400 is like unshaken. But I just need to apply that 0:07:15.800 --> 0:07:18.040 to all aspects of my life right now, Like and 0:07:18.120 --> 0:07:20.360 maybe that's it too, Like I haven't had a lot 0:07:20.400 --> 0:07:22.680 of time to just kind of like sit down in 0:07:22.720 --> 0:07:27.480 the spirit, like just really sit down have some conversations 0:07:27.520 --> 0:07:29.400 with God. I don't even think I need to have 0:07:29.440 --> 0:07:31.480 conversations with God. I think I need to be quiet 0:07:31.480 --> 0:07:36.880 and listen. So I think that's it. I think that, 0:07:37.040 --> 0:07:39.680 you know, that is kind of you know, this uncertainty 0:07:39.720 --> 0:07:41.600 and this feeling that I've been feeling. It's a very 0:07:41.760 --> 0:07:44.720 new feeling for me. I've never experienced this type of 0:07:44.720 --> 0:07:48.280 feeling in my life. But I'm also although I'm not 0:07:48.320 --> 0:07:51.680 in a new career field, I'm physically in a new 0:07:51.720 --> 0:07:54.040 space and I'm physically at a different point in my life, 0:07:54.040 --> 0:07:58.320 in different level of my life. So you know, maybe, hey, 0:07:58.400 --> 0:08:02.520 that's that's maybe that is what it is. Like maybe 0:08:02.600 --> 0:08:04.680 it's it's you know, it's not a it's not a 0:08:04.680 --> 0:08:08.120 new like I didn't wake up and go decide to 0:08:08.160 --> 0:08:11.520 become a freaking Dennist And I'm like, girl, what are 0:08:11.560 --> 0:08:16.560 you doing here? But things are different, Like, man, the 0:08:16.600 --> 0:08:19.360 podcast will be one in March. 0:08:19.680 --> 0:08:21.920 Oh, I gotta start planning something for that. 0:08:22.720 --> 0:08:24.600 I don't want to just have like a party to celebrate, 0:08:24.640 --> 0:08:26.200 Like I don't mind doing that like on like you know, 0:08:26.320 --> 0:08:29.200 but I want to do something that is like very 0:08:30.960 --> 0:08:34.080 impactful to celebrate the first year of the podcast because 0:08:34.080 --> 0:08:37.400 I feel like this podcast like it's literally like my baby, 0:08:37.440 --> 0:08:41.200 Like it's grown physically, like in its appearance. 0:08:40.720 --> 0:08:41.440 And its sound. 0:08:41.720 --> 0:08:44.640 It's grown and the thoughts and the conversations that we 0:08:44.720 --> 0:08:47.240 have here because I've gotten more comfortable just talking to 0:08:47.280 --> 0:08:51.920 you guys. But it's also just like really grown me 0:08:53.320 --> 0:08:56.680 just you know, being responsible for a podcast and a 0:08:56.720 --> 0:09:01.040 show and working with a team of people. It makes 0:09:01.080 --> 0:09:04.040 you like, really, this is what I'm talking about on 0:09:04.080 --> 0:09:06.800 the other entity of my life, Like I thought I 0:09:06.840 --> 0:09:08.960 had it all figure out as far as like you know, 0:09:10.240 --> 0:09:12.200 how this whole thing of like life and being an 0:09:12.200 --> 0:09:13.160 adult and grown up. 0:09:13.360 --> 0:09:17.880 This works is grown up. This's a word. No, grown up, 0:09:17.920 --> 0:09:20.360 this is not a word. But I thought I had 0:09:20.400 --> 0:09:21.120 it all figured out. 0:09:21.120 --> 0:09:22.560 And then you know, you enter new levels of your 0:09:22.600 --> 0:09:24.920 life and it's like, no, that this new level requires 0:09:24.960 --> 0:09:28.000 a different version of you. You cannot use the old 0:09:28.080 --> 0:09:31.040 version of yourself, the old corners that you were cutting. 0:09:32.200 --> 0:09:36.079 You know, you can't do it. You just can't. 0:09:36.120 --> 0:09:37.800 So I really want to make sure that one year 0:09:37.840 --> 0:09:40.800 is like, you know, a thing. But I say all 0:09:40.840 --> 0:09:45.920 that to say within this year, within the podcast about 0:09:45.920 --> 0:09:48.840 to be one years old, I think about just all 0:09:48.920 --> 0:09:53.200 of the things that we've been through here together on 0:09:53.200 --> 0:09:55.160 the podcast. That sounds weird because I'm sitting here talking 0:09:55.160 --> 0:09:57.959 to y'all and I can't see anybody. That still freaks 0:09:58.000 --> 0:10:00.160 me out, too, Like that still freaks me out that 0:10:00.200 --> 0:10:02.160 I can't see none of the low riders, but y'all 0:10:02.160 --> 0:10:04.120 can see and hear me. But I know y'all out 0:10:04.120 --> 0:10:05.760 there though, because we be talking on Twitter, we'll be 0:10:05.760 --> 0:10:07.679 talking on Instagram, all that stuff. 0:10:07.679 --> 0:10:09.480 When I se yall in person, we talk about the podcast. 0:10:09.559 --> 0:10:11.880 But yeah, I just. 0:10:13.480 --> 0:10:17.560 There's maybe it's a transition period and we've been through 0:10:17.559 --> 0:10:19.559 it together, so you guys know from the very beginning. 0:10:19.679 --> 0:10:22.840 But what I'm realizing as this podcast it's a year, 0:10:23.000 --> 0:10:26.000 and you know, this time has partaken. I think the 0:10:26.240 --> 0:10:31.520 biggest thing is new levels require like new versions of yourself. 0:10:32.640 --> 0:10:34.800 So I think that's what I'm walking into right now. 0:10:34.840 --> 0:10:35.400 And I don't know. 0:10:35.480 --> 0:10:38.200 Maybe I was fighting that a little bit and just 0:10:38.200 --> 0:10:40.319 thinking I can hindle everything and I got it, and 0:10:41.000 --> 0:10:43.640 I'm like, you know, I'm brown girl grinding like I 0:10:44.679 --> 0:10:49.360 got it. No, not at all, So readjusting some things, 0:10:49.400 --> 0:10:52.840 just you know, personally, but also professionally in the way. 0:10:52.720 --> 0:10:54.480 That I do, you know, things day to day. 0:10:56.000 --> 0:10:58.000 I think that's the reoccurring lesson that I've been getting 0:10:58.000 --> 0:10:59.720 over this last like five days. And maybe I just 0:10:59.720 --> 0:11:01.800 REALI that in talking it out, and that's why I 0:11:01.880 --> 0:11:03.839 be talking to y'all even though I can't see or 0:11:03.880 --> 0:11:04.480 hear you guys. 0:11:05.120 --> 0:11:05.680 You help me. 0:11:07.080 --> 0:11:09.280 All right, y'all, let's get on into the latest. Enough 0:11:09.280 --> 0:11:13.959 about my problems that's getting to somebody else's. So NBA 0:11:14.000 --> 0:11:16.720 Young Boy sat down with Complex. He sat down with 0:11:17.000 --> 0:11:20.520 Jordan Roles. Now, I just want to say shout out 0:11:20.559 --> 0:11:25.160 to Jordan Rolls over a Complex because NBA Young Boy is. 0:11:25.240 --> 0:11:27.320 Not an easy interview okay. 0:11:27.800 --> 0:11:30.240 And I don't mean he's not an easy interview because 0:11:30.320 --> 0:11:33.520 like he was rude, He just doesn't really say much. 0:11:34.160 --> 0:11:36.200 And the little bit that you do get out of him, 0:11:36.520 --> 0:11:38.960 I think that there is I mean with any interview. 0:11:39.200 --> 0:11:41.960 I think of interviews like playing spades. There is like 0:11:42.040 --> 0:11:45.720 such a dance to the conversation between you and another person. 0:11:46.480 --> 0:11:48.880 It's really your dance when you do it with multiple people. 0:11:48.920 --> 0:11:52.079 So when it's like you and a team interviewing someone, 0:11:52.120 --> 0:11:55.199 but when it's just you in that person, the dance 0:11:55.280 --> 0:11:59.120 is a lot different. Because if I'm playing spades and 0:11:59.160 --> 0:12:02.520 I have a team member, my team member knows you 0:12:02.520 --> 0:12:06.839 know all right, follow suit, know what I'm cutting, You 0:12:06.880 --> 0:12:09.320 know what I'm saying, like you kind of know where 0:12:09.360 --> 0:12:11.160 to go. We watching the board, We know how to 0:12:11.160 --> 0:12:16.080 play together. But when you're interviewing somebody, y'all aren't prepping together. 0:12:16.200 --> 0:12:18.120 So that person, you know, it's not like it's a 0:12:19.120 --> 0:12:21.320 like a malicious battle in an interview whatsoever. 0:12:21.360 --> 0:12:23.559 And this interview didn't feel like that either. Jordan Roads 0:12:23.559 --> 0:12:25.559 is an amazing job, but. 0:12:27.280 --> 0:12:30.120 That person's coming from a whole different place in mental space, 0:12:30.160 --> 0:12:33.000 with a whole different objective than you are. So trying 0:12:33.000 --> 0:12:34.640 to figure out the best way to meet in the 0:12:34.679 --> 0:12:37.600 middle and have that conversation. Only a great to do it, 0:12:37.880 --> 0:12:40.680 and Jordan Rolls I've been watching him on Complex. I 0:12:40.679 --> 0:12:42.800 feel like Complex is doing a good job of building 0:12:42.880 --> 0:12:47.720 him as talent Speedy Mormon, who, like you know, is 0:12:47.720 --> 0:12:49.800 the face of Complex and has been for a long time. 0:12:50.440 --> 0:12:53.840 Is I feel like I was telling a friend this. 0:12:53.920 --> 0:12:57.000 I feel like Speedy is kind of like they're like, 0:12:57.200 --> 0:12:57.880 he's out of here. 0:12:57.960 --> 0:12:59.000 He's doing the bigger. 0:12:58.760 --> 0:13:01.679 Interviews, He's traveling for the interviews. You know, he has 0:13:01.720 --> 0:13:04.160 a lot going on, and the brand is smart to 0:13:04.480 --> 0:13:07.559 keep branding him and building three sixty with Speedy in 0:13:07.600 --> 0:13:10.280 the way that they are. But they're also really smart 0:13:10.280 --> 0:13:13.000 in getting a person like Jordan Rose who can be 0:13:13.040 --> 0:13:15.600 a little bit more readily available for all things, for 0:13:15.760 --> 0:13:21.360 all talent, is you know in New York a bit 0:13:21.400 --> 0:13:23.160 more it seems to Speedy. I don't know, it just 0:13:23.160 --> 0:13:25.439 seems like it because Speedy's all over doing his interviews. 0:13:26.440 --> 0:13:29.319 But you know, I'm sure because of the success of 0:13:29.640 --> 0:13:33.640 three sixty with Speedy on Complex, Complex has gotten the 0:13:33.679 --> 0:13:37.040 influx of people wanted to host conversations because Speedy's conversations 0:13:37.040 --> 0:13:40.200 are so great. Jordan Rolls is in that vein of things, 0:13:40.240 --> 0:13:43.600 and I think Complex was so smart about the branding 0:13:43.600 --> 0:13:46.400 in the way that they chose their talent to lean into. 0:13:46.480 --> 0:13:54.560 Because Jordan Rolls isn't three sixty, night and Day from Speedy. 0:13:54.840 --> 0:13:57.680 There are two very different people, two very different interview 0:13:57.720 --> 0:14:00.760 styles for sure. Another thing that I about what's smart 0:14:00.880 --> 0:14:04.000 with Complex, Jordan Rose is a lot younger, so you know, 0:14:04.520 --> 0:14:08.360 I think the things that he's able to care about 0:14:08.480 --> 0:14:10.360 or just a little bit different than you know, the 0:14:10.400 --> 0:14:12.520 conversations that Speedy or have it and you need both, 0:14:12.600 --> 0:14:13.440 Like Speedy's still young. 0:14:13.480 --> 0:14:14.440 I think how old to Speedy. 0:14:15.400 --> 0:14:17.520 If you guys don't know who I'm talking about, I'm like, 0:14:18.559 --> 0:14:21.000 I don't know what rock you live under because here 0:14:21.040 --> 0:14:22.760 at the Latest, like you got to know the people. 0:14:23.360 --> 0:14:26.000 But Speedy Mormon is a correspondent for Complex. He's been 0:14:26.000 --> 0:14:27.840 there for a very very long time. And to be 0:14:27.880 --> 0:14:31.160 honest with you, I feel like Speedy has built Complex's 0:14:31.560 --> 0:14:36.960 interview platform to become a space where artists like artists 0:14:36.960 --> 0:14:39.280 and talent you gotta go through Complex Like that is 0:14:39.280 --> 0:14:41.600 a It's like how you got to side at the Directorce Club. 0:14:41.600 --> 0:14:43.520 When you go to New York, you gotta talk to 0:14:43.560 --> 0:14:46.040 Complex when you're rolling something out, whether you're a music artist, 0:14:46.640 --> 0:14:49.160 you know, an actress, actor, whatever the case may be. 0:14:49.160 --> 0:14:53.920 Because Speedy's interviews have been they've done so well and 0:14:53.920 --> 0:14:56.120 they pick up so well for talent. So now Complex 0:14:56.160 --> 0:14:59.120 is developing, you know, this other talent. 0:14:59.160 --> 0:15:00.280 And I don't know if Jordan. 0:15:00.160 --> 0:15:03.680 Rolls was on the platform prior to but if he was, 0:15:03.880 --> 0:15:06.560 they're positioning him a lot better now. If he wasn't, 0:15:06.840 --> 0:15:08.920 don't even matter because he is killing it right now. 0:15:09.560 --> 0:15:11.120 I just wanted to show them that love because I 0:15:11.160 --> 0:15:13.680 watched their stuff a lot and it's really really good 0:15:13.720 --> 0:15:15.240 to watch. But I also just know how important it 0:15:15.280 --> 0:15:17.920 is the big up the people in the seats that 0:15:17.960 --> 0:15:20.120 are doing the work, especially the people that are on 0:15:20.160 --> 0:15:22.680 their grind and coming up because we all have days, 0:15:22.720 --> 0:15:25.400 Like I told you guys, I was feeling today and 0:15:25.400 --> 0:15:27.760 in these last like honestly, it's been since last week 0:15:27.800 --> 0:15:30.920 where you're not always on you know, a hundred, you're 0:15:30.920 --> 0:15:35.800 not always you know, averaging the best numbers from the court, 0:15:36.400 --> 0:15:38.280 but you're still doing a great job. So I want 0:15:38.280 --> 0:15:39.920 to make sure. I don't know if they ever will 0:15:39.960 --> 0:15:41.640 hear this, But if so, I want to be the 0:15:41.680 --> 0:15:44.040 one to tell you doing a great job. But getting 0:15:44.040 --> 0:15:47.040 into the interview, So NBA Young Boy sat down with 0:15:47.960 --> 0:15:52.280 Jordan Rose and oh my god, y'all like he barely talks. Okay, 0:15:52.320 --> 0:15:54.120 So I just want to give y'all an example of 0:15:54.240 --> 0:15:55.360 him barely talking. 0:15:55.400 --> 0:15:57.880 I want you guys to take a listen to to Jordan. 0:15:57.720 --> 0:16:03.320 Rolls asking NBA Young Boy about the massive tour, which 0:16:03.360 --> 0:16:06.440 is the Make America Slimican Tour that NBA Young Boy 0:16:06.440 --> 0:16:09.800 did very successful tour. We'll get into that, and the 0:16:09.800 --> 0:16:12.280 fact that Birdman was there, like every tour stop. 0:16:12.640 --> 0:16:14.360 I Birdman talked a lot about the tour. When he 0:16:14.400 --> 0:16:15.200 was at verses, he. 0:16:15.120 --> 0:16:17.440 Just kept yelling and kept me yelling and kept me 0:16:17.480 --> 0:16:20.400 yelling about this tour. But this is a perfect example 0:16:20.400 --> 0:16:23.760 of basically what the interaction for the most part was 0:16:23.800 --> 0:16:25.080 like in the interview. Let's take a listen. 0:16:25.640 --> 0:16:28.880 Birdman was also on the tour, like basically every stop. 0:16:28.920 --> 0:16:35.239 What was his role on the road with you? She's chilling. 0:16:36.760 --> 0:16:39.040 Being unk, being unk. 0:16:41.120 --> 0:16:43.280 You got like a favorite memory on the road with 0:16:43.360 --> 0:16:49.000 him every moment, every moment. Yeah, Yeah, that's somebody that's 0:16:49.040 --> 0:16:55.040 been with you since you were about sixteen? What does 0:16:55.080 --> 0:16:55.920 he mean to you? 0:16:58.160 --> 0:17:00.800 I think he should hake him. Didn't want to get 0:17:00.800 --> 0:17:02.840 some fresh and you. 0:17:02.720 --> 0:17:05.320 Want to take a look only if you promised that 0:17:05.320 --> 0:17:11.240 we could come back me maybe A handshake of a 0:17:11.359 --> 0:17:13.920 maybe is still a pretty solid handshake, would you agree. 0:17:15.480 --> 0:17:17.000 I'm gonna hold you to it the maybe. 0:17:18.560 --> 0:17:18.679 So. 0:17:18.760 --> 0:17:21.320 I don't think NBA Young Boy mean any harm. He 0:17:21.359 --> 0:17:23.280 did say when they first came back in, like I'm 0:17:23.280 --> 0:17:26.720 not the best with words, and I was like, that's ironic, 0:17:27.520 --> 0:17:29.840 NBA Young Boy not the best with words? Like your 0:17:29.920 --> 0:17:33.520 music goes so crazy though, like how like okay, but 0:17:33.680 --> 0:17:36.639 you know, interview artist, an artist in an interview is 0:17:36.640 --> 0:17:39.159 different than an artist in the studio making music in 0:17:39.200 --> 0:17:41.800 a setting that is his own that he can own. 0:17:41.920 --> 0:17:44.320 I get it. But they got into some things. 0:17:44.680 --> 0:17:50.240 So they talked about this whole Michael Jackson NBA Young 0:17:50.280 --> 0:17:53.240 Boy comparison, because one of the things that gets thrown 0:17:53.280 --> 0:17:54.960 on NBA Young Boy is that he is the Michael 0:17:55.040 --> 0:17:59.719 Jackson of his generation because of how crazy his fans 0:17:59.760 --> 0:18:03.200 go for him, like his level of celebrity is insane. 0:18:03.800 --> 0:18:05.960 I thought his answer was actually very mature, like he 0:18:06.040 --> 0:18:08.359 won't say too many words, but I thought these words 0:18:08.400 --> 0:18:09.040 made a lot of sense. 0:18:09.040 --> 0:18:12.880 A sick a listen, I don't know nothing about Michael Jackson. 0:18:13.160 --> 0:18:15.439 What yo, why be you got a song called Dirty 0:18:15.440 --> 0:18:17.760 Diana sampling Dirty Diana, But. 0:18:18.560 --> 0:18:20.440 I don't understand the star. 0:18:20.560 --> 0:18:24.679 I don't, okay, power because you was we wasn't like 0:18:24.720 --> 0:18:28.000 really alive at his peak when like women was like 0:18:28.119 --> 0:18:28.840 passing out. 0:18:29.440 --> 0:18:33.800 I feel like certain should be over exaggerated sometime, and 0:18:34.040 --> 0:18:35.119 you gotta think about it. 0:18:35.160 --> 0:18:39.199 They over exaggerate about me sometime. But how though, like 0:18:39.320 --> 0:18:43.640 how like that statement that you know Michael Jackson, that's 0:18:43.720 --> 0:18:44.680 like going too well? 0:18:44.720 --> 0:18:47.920 First of all, NBA, young boy, very on point. I mean, 0:18:47.960 --> 0:18:49.600 I don't know what it was like when Michael Jackson 0:18:49.640 --> 0:18:49.960 was alive. 0:18:50.040 --> 0:18:51.760 I wasn't. I mean, that's not true. 0:18:51.800 --> 0:18:54.280 I was alive and I was aware of things when 0:18:54.320 --> 0:18:56.840 Michael Jackson was alive, but I was so young. I 0:18:56.960 --> 0:18:59.520 wasn't like the age I am now sitting in the 0:18:59.520 --> 0:19:00.520 seat I'm sitting in now. 0:19:00.520 --> 0:19:02.520 When did Michael Jackson die? Let's look this up. 0:19:02.760 --> 0:19:05.119 Yeah, so Michael Jackson died in two thousand and nine. 0:19:05.920 --> 0:19:10.040 So on two thousand and nine, I was, I was 0:19:10.040 --> 0:19:12.640 in high school. I graduated from high school in twenty ten. 0:19:12.680 --> 0:19:17.200 He died June twenty fifth, two thousand and nine. Right, So, yes, 0:19:17.600 --> 0:19:19.720 I was in high school. That problem, that was my 0:19:19.880 --> 0:19:22.200 I was my junior year of high school. So it's 0:19:22.280 --> 0:19:25.800 like you, of course, you know Michael Jackson. You understand 0:19:25.840 --> 0:19:30.200 the celebrity of Michael Jackson, but I was. It wasn't 0:19:30.240 --> 0:19:33.080 like I was like attending Michael Jackson concerts or like 0:19:33.200 --> 0:19:36.960 paying enough attention to like really have felt the celebrity 0:19:37.359 --> 0:19:38.280 of Michael Jackson. 0:19:38.359 --> 0:19:40.560 So I think an NBA young boy is younger than me. 0:19:40.680 --> 0:19:43.040 NBA young boy, he has to be around Jordan Rose's 0:19:43.080 --> 0:19:50.399 age because Jordan Rose, Jordan Rose made a like a 0:19:50.520 --> 0:19:52.000 kind of like a comment about them being around the 0:19:52.000 --> 0:19:54.159 Saint MAT's. Yes, NBA young boy's twenty six years old. Okay, 0:19:54.320 --> 0:19:54.680 so if. 0:19:54.600 --> 0:19:58.960 I'm thirty four, NBA young boy, it's twenty six years old. Yeah. 0:19:59.040 --> 0:20:02.679 He I'm telling y'all, I've I've got a chance to 0:20:02.760 --> 0:20:05.520 like see it from the TV screen, and I don't 0:20:05.520 --> 0:20:08.199 even really fully understand the impact of Michael Jackson. Not 0:20:08.200 --> 0:20:10.399 that I don't understand it, but I just, you know, 0:20:10.440 --> 0:20:12.200
