And it was a completely affordable. 0:00:46.080 --> 0:00:48.280 I went into Walmart. The only thing is that pretty 0:00:48.320 --> 0:00:52.080 View wanted the salt and vinegar chips. And I felt 0:00:52.080 --> 0:00:54.840 so bad because she asked me, you know about the 0:00:54.880 --> 0:00:58.920 salt in vinegar chips? And I did look. I was all. 0:00:59.080 --> 0:01:00.800 First of all, I didn't know what I was looking for. 0:01:01.000 --> 0:01:03.720 I looked at sour cream chips and I didn't know 0:01:03.720 --> 0:01:06.280 what exa I've heard of them, but I didn't know 0:01:06.280 --> 0:01:10.360 what bag they came in. So okay, okay, So now 0:01:10.680 --> 0:01:14.320 okay is always in the hood, you gotta have a 0:01:14.400 --> 0:01:18.920 soft if you broke you know what s because that 0:01:19.000 --> 0:01:20.600 was twenty five since and min when I grew up. 0:01:20.640 --> 0:01:23.759 Now it's probably a dollar act, your little local corner 0:01:23.760 --> 0:01:26.080 storep you in New York. You gotta godega. That's just 0:01:26.080 --> 0:01:28.280 what it is. But you gotta know what. I didn't 0:01:28.280 --> 0:01:30.240 know what they are, and I've definitely had them before, 0:01:30.280 --> 0:01:32.880 but I haven't seen them enough to be like, oh, 0:01:32.920 --> 0:01:35.080 that's the But I did. I searched, and I was 0:01:35.120 --> 0:01:38.000 telling me, like I searched, I'm down here in Atlanta's 0:01:38.040 --> 0:01:40.720 my first time. It was a whole experience. Okay. Liveing 0:01:40.760 --> 0:01:42.600 in l A, we don't see as many black people. 0:01:42.720 --> 0:01:45.000 I was just like, oh my gosh, it's black people everywhere. 0:01:45.000 --> 0:01:47.640 This is amazing. But I won't say the Walmart was 0:01:47.680 --> 0:01:50.400 like bone dry. It was. It was like every shelf 0:01:50.480 --> 0:01:54.040 was like half empty. Like it was since I told 0:01:54.080 --> 0:01:56.720 you to go slide to the our gas station and 0:01:56.840 --> 0:02:00.440 get you a que If I said man to due, 0:02:00.440 --> 0:02:02.920 we said gets to get medic chips. You could put 0:02:02.960 --> 0:02:04.320 it we should put we would have put some hot 0:02:04.320 --> 0:02:06.360 sauce in there, and we put the hot sauceae and 0:02:06.400 --> 0:02:08.600 that's when you see pork.

And it's been my seventh season. Now, 0:06:55.760 --> 0:06:58.640 that's amazing. Yeah. So I've been all over the places 0:06:58.760 --> 0:07:01.320 you have been, and seems like you pivot a lot 0:07:01.600 --> 0:07:06.240 throughout your whole career. Yeah, now I do notice. So 0:07:06.440 --> 0:07:10.080 you dance very well. Is that like just natural or 0:07:10.280 --> 0:07:12.800 was there any passion in the dance. Definitely, It's still 0:07:12.840 --> 0:07:14.880 passion in the dance world. I really want to look 0:07:14.960 --> 0:07:18.840 up at ballet U, a ballet Um studio out here 0:07:18.920 --> 0:07:21.280 in Atlanta because I used to dance for seven years 0:07:21.360 --> 0:07:24.200 doing ballet and I stopped doing that, and then I 0:07:24.320 --> 0:07:27.000 used to Me and my cousin Deja used to dance 0:07:27.000 --> 0:07:28.440 for the Miami Heat but we used to do Junior 0:07:28.480 --> 0:07:35.080 League tries to come out halftime. So yeah, dance, ballet 0:07:35.120 --> 0:07:38.840 is my thing. I love ballet, ballet in I could 0:07:38.880 --> 0:07:43.720 do tap, yeah, but in being Jamaican, you grew up 0:07:43.720 --> 0:07:45.680 around your family with this or anything they do is dancing. 0:07:46.040 --> 0:07:48.800 So I grewup around people on their head top, split 0:07:48.880 --> 0:07:51.920 in and winding up like all over the place. And 0:07:51.920 --> 0:07:55.640 that's just me. Wow. Yeah, I love dancing. It's just 0:07:55.880 --> 0:07:59.400 it keeps you youthful. When when did you say would 0:07:59.440 --> 0:08:01.440 you say like was a pivotal moment where you were like, 0:08:01.480 --> 0:08:04.200 I think I'm onto something, because if you were, you 0:08:04.240 --> 0:08:07.760 went from you know, you were doing radio, you were 0:08:07.800 --> 0:08:12.160 pursuing radio. Then you ended up getting ah your own 0:08:12.240 --> 0:08:14.280 radio show. But then it seems like you went to 0:08:14.280 --> 0:08:17.680 work for the Marriott then you ended up becoming admin. 0:08:18.640 --> 0:08:21.000 When along that journey where you like, I think I'm 0:08:21.080 --> 0:08:25.400 onto something here. When Arnold Taylor fired me and told 0:08:25.400 --> 0:08:28.280 me to go kick rocks and you need to focus 0:08:28.320 --> 0:08:30.800 on your comedy. Yeah, shout out to Arnold Taylor. And 0:08:31.080 --> 0:08:33.840 the baby called me that same maybe like two days later. 0:08:33.840 --> 0:08:36.080 I was like, man, you're too funny. Do your ship. 0:08:36.600 --> 0:08:38.480 So that year was the year I was like, I'm 0:08:38.480 --> 0:08:41.320 onto something, Jesus. And that year was about faith. It 0:08:41.360 --> 0:08:43.440 was about movement for me and knowing that I have 0:08:43.520 --> 0:08:45.520 a call and a purpose of my life. So why 0:08:45.559 --> 0:08:50.000 not take take this step in from there? Um, I 0:08:50.000 --> 0:08:54.000 haven't stopped since. So when you got fired, where you 0:08:54.440 --> 0:08:57.120 at all taken back or where you like I knew 0:08:57.400 --> 0:09:00.800 when he said he fired you because you had higher purpose. 0:09:01.320 --> 0:09:03.800 Yeah that's kind of bitter sweet, I would imagine. Yeah, 0:09:03.840 --> 0:09:07.000 But it was more of, you know, I didn't have 0:09:07.400 --> 0:09:10.400 my faith a kicking heavy now. You know.

Yeah, I was 0:13:21.160 --> 0:13:22.400 like I didn't want to get the phone. I was like, 0:13:22.840 --> 0:13:25.440 she was so sweet immediately, like we're asking each other 0:13:25.520 --> 0:13:28.640 questions like I'm just making you make it? So how's 0:13:28.679 --> 0:13:34.760 that like? So yeah, but back to back to our interview. 0:13:35.160 --> 0:13:39.120 So you're going viral, You're you're at this point, you're 0:13:39.160 --> 0:13:42.400 making good money. I would assume, right, Um, which one 0:13:42.640 --> 0:13:44.400 which part? No? Because when I first got by, I 0:13:44.400 --> 0:13:46.520 was making no money like that probately all was a 0:13:46.559 --> 0:13:48.719 month ain't no money? No, But at what point do 0:13:48.800 --> 0:13:52.959 you start to elevate? When I got wailing out Nick Cannon, 0:13:53.000 --> 0:13:55.440 when Nick Cannon gave me an opportunity to showcase my 0:13:55.480 --> 0:13:58.680 talent on that show because when I start seeing, okay, 0:13:58.960 --> 0:14:00.800 this is gonna help me, and I'm able to move 0:14:00.800 --> 0:14:03.280 outside of Charlotte. And that's why I'm him in here 0:14:03.320 --> 0:14:06.480 in Atlanta. That's what made me move. Wow, it wasn't 0:14:06.640 --> 0:14:11.400 the Nick Cannon at it again? Yeah, Nick again? And 0:14:11.400 --> 0:14:13.600 I would say out of thirty episodes, and Nick Cannon 0:14:13.640 --> 0:14:16.160 plays a pivotal role and at least ten of those thirty, 0:14:16.320 --> 0:14:18.240 oh my god, he plays a role. He plays a role. 0:14:18.280 --> 0:14:20.880 He's like the silent role player. He's like, oh my god. 0:14:20.960 --> 0:14:23.560 And that's what we as levers because I'm a libra, right, 0:14:23.640 --> 0:14:26.120 so we don't have to showcase what we do for people. 0:14:26.160 --> 0:14:27.800 We don't have to do that. When your heart speaks, 0:14:27.800 --> 0:14:30.920 you just move, you know. And I think Nick definitely 0:14:31.000 --> 0:14:34.320 has cheer lead me on on that show for seven seasons. 0:14:34.400 --> 0:14:36.760 And that's why I was able to buy my first house. 0:14:37.240 --> 0:14:42.000 I was thank you in Atlanta and here Ina, I 0:14:42.120 --> 0:14:47.280 was gonna ask you, Yeah, I just bought my first house.
