Like weird, it is a 533 00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:15,639 Speaker 1: clickie thing. Some of this stuff is a little clubby, 534 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:17,680 Speaker 1: but like I don't know, I think. And also to 535 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:20,640 Speaker 1: it's on me a little bit where when I had 536 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:23,439 Speaker 1: the heat on me, like like extremely on me, I 537 00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:26,680 Speaker 1: didn't necessarily want to press for it. And that's because 538 00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:29,440 Speaker 1: I was in a place where not necessarily just sad. 539 00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:32,920 Speaker 1: But I don't know, I just didn't feel I didn't 540 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:36,000 Speaker 1: want them to see me. That's that's real shit. I 541 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:37,879 Speaker 1: didn't want that because I wasn't I didn't like the 542 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,480 Speaker 1: I didn't like how it felt, even though things was 543 00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:43,360 Speaker 1: going great, because think about that we get out, dude, 544 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:45,440 Speaker 1: I should have been on some magazine covers. I could 545 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:47,440 Speaker 1: have did that stuff. I was just like, let the 546 00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:49,440 Speaker 1: work speak for itself. Let me just stand it back. 547 00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:51,199 Speaker 5: You know. 548 00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:54,680 Speaker 6: Culturally though, like culturally I felt like, you know, that 549 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:57,320 Speaker 6: character't get Out was a big deal. 550 00:22:57,520 --> 00:22:59,919 Speaker 1: I've done some culture things like even just being on 551 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:02,840 Speaker 1: and secure that's a big culture thing, even like doing 552 00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:05,240 Speaker 1: movies like Judas in the Black Messiah, like being a 553 00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:08,800 Speaker 1: part of I've been a part of some really powerful moments, 554 00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 1: like even when Jay did his four four four album 555 00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 1: and that and when we did that we did that 556 00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:15,800 Speaker 1: music video the Black Friends, and it was me eas 557 00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:18,800 Speaker 1: Like I've been a part of some really cool things. 558 00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:22,159 Speaker 1: I just never participated in hyping myself up like I 559 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:22,560 Speaker 1: should have. 560 00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:25,920 Speaker 6: It is interesting, right, and I'll be having these conversations sometimes, 561 00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:28,000 Speaker 6: like when I look at like you and Gerard called Michael, 562 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 6: y'all had everything right, Like y'all had the sitcoms, the 563 00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:33,200 Speaker 6: HBO specials, the big movies. 564 00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:35,040 Speaker 5: But then it's still don't. 565 00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:38,640 Speaker 6: Cut through like connect like a eighty five South show 566 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:39,720 Speaker 6: or a Duvall or. 567 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:45,800 Speaker 1: Well that's true and not true. It's just spaces for everything, right. 568 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:49,240 Speaker 1: And so like you think about Carmichael Show, that's still 569 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:52,160 Speaker 1: a very well loved show, like so many people still 570 00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:54,480 Speaker 1: talk about it and still like approach me about it. 571 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:57,480 Speaker 1: But once again, Girard is kind of like me too. 572 00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:00,160 Speaker 1: I think until we saw like Gerard, we're seeing I'm 573 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:02,400 Speaker 1: coming to his own too. Now he's a lot more 574 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:04,760 Speaker 1: open about everything than he's ever been. You know, we 575 00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:07,119 Speaker 1: saw that by the time we got to Rock Thaniel. 576 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:08,600 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, That's why he had his moment, 577 00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:10,360 Speaker 1: That's why he wanted in me. That's why you saw 578 00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:12,880 Speaker 1: him getting more attention with that. And so I think 579 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:15,240 Speaker 1: that might be my season now, to be quite honest 580 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:18,199 Speaker 1: with you, cause now I'm like, you know, some like 581 00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:21,719 Speaker 1: I'm such a nerd as shit. I purposely did everything 582 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:23,560 Speaker 1: I did so I could be one of the greatest. 583 00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:26,480 Speaker 1: I wanted to sit KWN with my name on it 584 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:29,040 Speaker 1: on Network TV that all that shit was done on purpose. 585 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:31,560 Speaker 1: Even just the way I did the movies, it's based 586 00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:34,240 Speaker 1: off like what Bernie Mack did. Like if I get 587 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:37,200 Speaker 1: one small role, it's like Bernie, I killed any role, Okay, real, 588 00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:39,720 Speaker 1: make sure even if it's small, be memorable, you know 589 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:42,440 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. So, but now I'm in a place 590 00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:44,520 Speaker 1: now even just like even just having a great PR 591 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:47,480 Speaker 1: team I have. Now, this is the most I've ever been. 592 00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:51,000 Speaker 1: But I feel good, I'm happy, and I believe in 593 00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:53,840 Speaker 1: myself for real. So maybe I'm comfortable showing people who 594 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:54,160 Speaker 1: I am. 595 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:56,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, But I also think it's like you said, is 596 00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:58,280 Speaker 2: being seen right if you think of some of the 597 00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 2: comedians that you name, Yeah, see them all the time. 598 00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:04,560 Speaker 2: But it's not just see them on billboards.

It's 672 00:27:57,119 --> 00:27:59,400 Speaker 1: so interesting because she'll sometimes she'll get really on ten. 673 00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:02,359 Speaker 5: I'd be like, all right, you love it like you 674 00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:04,560 Speaker 5: love your kids.
