Speaker 2: you raped Jersey, but you grew up in New York.
Speaker 2: Give me the bread, give me a little bit of both.

Speaker 2: Okay, I've only been I went to uh what part
Speaker 2: of Jersey? Do we go to? Jersey City?
Speaker 1: Yeah, not too far.

Speaker 2: your new album's called Soul, what's the acronym stand for.
Speaker 1: Signs of Universal Love. Okay, yeah, I like that. Yes,
Speaker 1: it's a vibe. It's all about zodiac signs.
Speaker 2: So it's like, you believe in zodiac signs.
Speaker 1: I believe that they govern your temperament. I don't swear
Speaker 1: by them.
Speaker 2: I always, you know, I didn't, really I'm gonna will.
Speaker 2: I almost call myself an a Quemini. That's an outcast album.
Speaker 2: I am an aquarius, got it, But I don't know
Speaker 2: what that means.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean you can be often detached, you can
Speaker 1: be kind of aloof. I feel like it's many qualities
Speaker 1: of an Aquarius. But of course it all has to
Speaker 1: do with your other placements too. You're more sign your
Speaker 1: rising science that that's all important too.
Speaker 2: I'm curious, will you, like, let's say, if there's somebody
Speaker 2: in your life or let's say in your past, have
Speaker 2: you not entertained somebody because of their signs? So you
Speaker 2: believe for real, I.
Speaker 1: Believe that it controls certain elements of you. It's no,
Speaker 1: it's like that can't be no coincidence.
Speaker 2: That all y'all act like that, like NA, So if
Speaker 2: you're going to like, like, let's say, have you ever
Speaker 2: gone on a date with somebody, found out there' zodiac
Speaker 2: sign and been like, oh, this would be the last day. Yep. Wow,
Speaker 2: I didn't know people like that. Well, it's nice to
Speaker 2: meet somebody like that. I always thought that that was
Speaker 2: like a myth.
Speaker 1: I mean, I wouldn't say my last day, but I
Speaker 1: would be like, I'm cautious.
Speaker 2: You're cautious. I'd be like, because, like, if everything lines up,
Speaker 2: that's good. But then they but they were born in
Speaker 2: the wrong month.
Speaker 1: It's like, damn, I'm telling you something coming every time?
Speaker 2: Every time? So what is your zodiac son?
Speaker 1: Cancer?

Speaker 1: and super moody.
Speaker 2: Which sign are you not?
Speaker 1: Culture with libras?
Speaker 2: Libras, Yeah, Libras are.

Speaker 2: My my son's mom is a Libra and both of
Speaker 2: my sons are libras, And wow, yeah, wow, that's.
Speaker 1: A heavy household toxic.

Speaker 2: Yeah, shout out to you. But I didn't know. Is
Speaker 2: so you actually so you went to HBC, you went
Speaker 2: to Howard and graduated, and then you ended up coming
Speaker 2: to the USC and getting a degree. Here was it
Speaker 2: a master's? Yeah, you're really smart something.
Speaker 1: I say that.

Speaker 1: N or work.
Speaker 2: For the w A show or so you could like be.
Speaker 1: Yeah right, but not that delusion though, but yeah.

Speaker 2: the other side of it. Yeah, and it seems like,
Speaker 2: you know, we kind of got like we kind of
Speaker 2: got bamboozed a little because I got the JAB. But
Speaker 2: I feel like I feel like if I had have
Speaker 2: known everything I know now, I would have totally have
Speaker 2: just been like, if I get it, it's probably better
Speaker 2: if I just get it naturally.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I knew then just from my background.
Speaker 1: They didn't know the difference between public health and public safety,
Speaker 1: and I think they were confusing the two. But for me,
Speaker 1: I never got I never got vaccinated.
Speaker 2: Because could you young and healthy, Well.
Speaker 1: No, there's you know, cold morbidities that exist in anything.
Speaker 1: But I do think that for me, I was like,
Speaker 1: there's a certain thing that's heard immunity. After a certain
Speaker 1: point in time, everybody has to get it. It's inevitably
Speaker 1: going to get you. And if you have something that's
Speaker 1: going to defeat you, like if you have a cancer
Speaker 1: or an HIV or something like that, are you higher
Speaker 1: at risk to be you know more sick than you.
Speaker 1: But that's life. This is the common flu.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then the other thing. And there's so much
Speaker 2: we can get into. I did get that. I got
Speaker 2: the first jab. I didn't get the booster. They couldn't
Speaker 2: boost me. Okay, by then I was By the time
Speaker 2: I got the booster came around, I was like, I

Speaker 2: a renaissance of like it used to be a thing
Speaker 2: where you would describe an artists as like a female rapper,
Speaker 2: but female rappers are running rap.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so it's just like rappers.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, Like it's like the best. Like you know,
Speaker 2: if you could like rewind like twenty eighteen twenty seventeen,
Speaker 2: you'd be like, oh, there's this new female role. How
Speaker 2: many female rappers can pop? At the same time, there
Speaker 2: was that narrative because it was like just Nikki for
Speaker 2: so long, But now it's like I just wish the
Speaker 2: dudes would care about making real records like the women
Speaker 2: are these days.
Speaker 1: I think we had our time. We deserve this time. Now.
Speaker 1: It's been so many years since All Woman Dynamic was domain.
Speaker 2: That's back in the day. Well, back in the day,
Speaker 2: it was like the you had like the Brad Little Kim,
Speaker 2: Foxy Eve, like a lot of people doing everything at
Speaker 2: the same time. I feel like now though, it's like
Speaker 2: way crazier. Yeah it is, and there's so many like spectrums,
Speaker 2: Like you could get Rhapsod he was one of the
Speaker 2: greatest period shouts to raps, and then you got like
Speaker 2: Sexy read who you can you know for sure?
Speaker 1: I love the dichotomy between all of them. No, I
Speaker 1: think it's dope.
Speaker 2: Have you listened to Andre three thousands fluent album?
Speaker 1: I can't wait to listen to it. I haven't sat
Speaker 1: down yet, but like that, Andre is somebody I'm an
Speaker 1: enthusiast of. Like I just feel like, whatever he drops,
Speaker 1: I want to come.
Speaker 2: To album right there. Quin it's my favorite. It's like
Speaker 2: my third favorite album of all time.
Speaker 1: I love that.
Speaker 2: I love Outcasts, But no, I'm not gonna lie. I
Speaker 2: saw it. I saw the press release and I was
Speaker 2: just so fucked. I was like, yes, yeah, and then
Speaker 2: I read and it was like, there'll be no rapping,
Speaker 2: it's just the flute. I said, okay, well, at least
Speaker 2: i'll have some music to trip on shrooms too, some
Speaker 2: shrooms get high. Let Andre play the flute in the background.
Speaker 1: No, And I like his self awareness in it too.
Speaker 1: I feel like evolution is so important for artists to
Speaker 1: like understand what a leane of life they're in at
Speaker 1: the moment.
Speaker 2: Yeah, like you already said. Yeah.
Speaker 1: He was like, I don't have nothing to rap about,
Speaker 1: so you want me to.
Speaker 2: Rap colonoscopy And I was like sure, I literally listen
Speaker 2: to you rap about anything. Yeah, yeah, colonoscopies, you know, iras,
Speaker 2: whatever you want to rap about. But we're gonna get
Speaker 2: the flute sounds the flu.
Speaker 1: I'm excited about that.

Speaker 2: slept on. Yeah, she's incredible. Who's first of all, what's

Speaker 2: was like the feature that meant the most to get
