Some of the things I said 250 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:43,560 Speaker 3: was absolutely concerning, disrespectful and heartless. I never want to 251 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 3: attach Brandy into that much disrespect that I portrayed to 252 00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 3: the world that should have been on a brand that 253 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:55,360 Speaker 3: only ray J was and only had something to do 254 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 3: with me in my issues, and that's what I'm apologizing for. So, Brandy, 255 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:05,840 Speaker 3: I know what you heard was despicable, dirty, and just 256 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 3: downright disrespectful, and I feel bad. I feel bad that 257 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 3: I tied you into it and brought your brands into 258 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:18,680 Speaker 3: this world that I'm in, and so for that, I'm sorry. 259 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:21,719 Speaker 3: And I think for everybody else involved, we all need 260 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 3: to just chill. It needs to stop now. 261 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:27,440 Speaker 1: And I think that what like the gist of what 262 00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:29,920 Speaker 1: I'm taking away from this is that Number one, I 263 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,040 Speaker 1: know she probably custed it behind the scenes because ray 264 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,679 Speaker 1: J was being crazy, But I also think, you know, 265 00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:38,600 Speaker 1: it's just when you think about career and legacy, it's 266 00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 1: like there's so much like BS that can be attached 267 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:45,360 Speaker 1: to it, no matter who you are and what you've done. 268 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 1: Just within this last like a week, the conversations that 269 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:50,680 Speaker 1: we've been having about Brandy the conversation she's had to 270 00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:54,400 Speaker 1: come out and speak and clarify herself. You know, please 271 00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 1: go back and listen to our prior episode if you 272 00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 1: have not, where we covered Brandy speaking out about being 273 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:03,800 Speaker 1: upset that Sean was mentioning that they previously dated, right, 274 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:06,480 Speaker 1: And I told you, guys, I spoke to someone in 275 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:08,280 Speaker 1: Seane's camp. We talked about this in the Breakfast Club 276 00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:09,840 Speaker 1: as well too, and I explained to them, you know, 277 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:12,200 Speaker 1: where the upset was coming from, where the backlash was 278 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:15,080 Speaker 1: coming from. But I'm just like, man, you think about 279 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,160 Speaker 1: all these thirty some years that she has been what 280 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 1: she is in entertainment, and even Brandy still got to 281 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 1: deal with the BS, whether it was intentionally done or 282 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 1: said or not. Even like it's still and she is 283 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 1: the most out of the way, doesn't subscribe to any 284 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:36,840 Speaker 1: of the BS, not in the blogs, You're not running 285 00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:40,360 Speaker 1: into her anywhere. Like when we think about real celebrity 286 00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 1: and being put up and out the way, Brandy is 287 00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 1: one of the like she's one of few that we 288 00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:49,200 Speaker 1: have left where we don't know everything about her. And 289 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 1: she was trying like everything is like protect the brand, 290 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:56,000 Speaker 1: to protect the brand with her, and she still has 291 00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:58,360 Speaker 1: to do with all of the all of the things, 292 00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 1: all of the drama that comes, right, And I don't know, 293 00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 1: I was saying, I was thinking about that, and I'm like, dang, Like, 294 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 1: she don't address nothing, she don't be in nothing, she 295 00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 1: don't speak on nothing.

He says his algorithm on x is 320 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 1: all based on rural politics, Muslim and Jewish hate. It 321 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:28,160 Speaker 1: may have started when I first started watching.

I think that eventually we all have to 341 00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 1: get to this point where if that's what you want, 342 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:25,159 Speaker 1: you just have to live in this kind of like 343 00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 1: a very protected bubble. 344 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:28,560 Speaker 2: And like that's what ray J's talking about. 345 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:32,440 Speaker 1: Like Brandy lives in this space of like she knows 346 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:34,720 Speaker 1: what she wants to know, we know about her, what 347 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:36,919 Speaker 1: she wants us to know. She responds to what she 348 00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:39,920 Speaker 1: wants to respond to. But she's still Brandy.

It was little to know, like 352 00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:52,200 Speaker 1: they did press. Don't get me wrong, I'm not gonna 353 00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:55,240 Speaker 1: say no press. They did press. There were several interviews 354 00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:56,919 Speaker 1: that they did, promoting in and things like that, but 355 00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:59,639 Speaker 1: it was they didn't have to they didn't have to 356 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:02,800 Speaker 1: buy It's allible, like they didn't have to lean into 357 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:05,520 Speaker 1: all of the like the algorithmic stuff, like they're not. 358 00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 2: They weren't doing a lot of the normal hits, Like. 359 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,240 Speaker 1: I was trying to figure out if they would, like 360 00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:12,359 Speaker 1: just can we get one of them in the breakfast 361 00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:14,960 Speaker 1: club when they go to New York And not that 362 00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:17,919 Speaker 1: they didn't, I mean I never heard back, but it's just, 363 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:21,760 Speaker 1: you know, for the way that their celebrity is set up, 364 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:25,480 Speaker 1: they don't have to. And when I think about like 365 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:27,920 Speaker 1: legacy and longevity, I even think about that, like what 366 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:30,560 Speaker 1: conversations am I even entertaining on a day to day 367 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:35,040 Speaker 1: that are not helping me in that move forward?

But 382 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 1: like that's what I mean, like building up that level 383 00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:27,840 Speaker 1: of like cachet where like you literally can like be 384 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:32,639 Speaker 1: seen when you want to be seen and like you know, 385 00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 1: like like wow, and control the masses when you want 386 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:39,840 Speaker 1: to respond to things, winning how you want to wish 387 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:41,440 Speaker 1: him and Beyonce. 388 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,200 Speaker 2: Barely do right, but. 389 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:47,919 Speaker 1: Even then and still there is so much drama that 390 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:50,800 Speaker 1: has been surrounding jay Z's name for like the last month. 391 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,240 Speaker 2: And he don't even yo, he don't even say nothing 392 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:55,879 Speaker 2: about nothing. It's like you can't escape it. 393 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:58,320 Speaker 1: And it's like kind of scary too, like as I 394 00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:01,400 Speaker 1: think about, like you know, what I want my platform 395 00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:04,560 Speaker 1: to be and like, you know, the good conversation to 396 00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:07,080 Speaker 1: be and you know, like I always feel like you 397 00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 1: got to take the good with the bad, and that's 398 00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:12,240 Speaker 1: always that's that's a downfall too, of like anything in life, 399 00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:13,920 Speaker 1: but especially in what I do. It's like as much 400 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:16,440 Speaker 1: as you want to just report on like all the positive, 401 00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:18,520 Speaker 1: there is the negative too, and it's all a part 402 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:20,480 Speaker 1: of it. And it's all I think, it's a stylized thing. 403 00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:22,399 Speaker 1: Like it's all about how you do it. Do you 404 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,080 Speaker 1: do it moral? Do you do it with integrity? Do 405 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:26,760 Speaker 1: you you know, do it in a way that like, 406 00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:29,720 Speaker 1: you know, for me, it's never personal. There's never any malice, 407 00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:32,600 Speaker 1: you know, I never have an ill intention, a targeted 408 00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:37,680 Speaker 1: intention anything like that. Right, But still it's like, no 409 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:40,720 Speaker 1: matter what you do. Sometimes I always think about, like, Yo, 410 00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 1: this this this world of like conversation and storytelling is 411 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 1: to the point where like people don't even know what's 412 00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:50,440 Speaker 1: real and what's fake, and they attach both to people's 413 00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:55,760 Speaker 1: names literally, and the strongest brand survive.
