Speaker 8: this is the most emotional man on the plant.
Speaker 1: It he need to drop his nuts. I'm sorry if
Speaker 1: I can't.
Speaker 8: Say that, but it's like too much female stuff that
Speaker 8: you got going on. If these girls be as crazy
Speaker 8: over you as they do, why you gotta be the girl?
Speaker 1: Got to be the girl too? Like why are you? Yeah,
Speaker 1: you acting like a baby mamas.
Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 1: Because the black excellence at this point, Like, bro.
Speaker 5: If so does our open Instagram baba steak.
Speaker 3: Running it up? Okay, I'm okay.
Speaker 1: They taking whatever small things that's happening and running it
Speaker 1: up to a million?
Speaker 6: Did he's giving his publishing back to his artists?
Speaker 1: Listen?
Speaker 5: Is there any publishers?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 4: Is there any money left to collect?
Speaker 2: Like?
Speaker 5: I mean, I'm not an artist, so I wouldn't knowing
Speaker 5: us he was getting though.
Speaker 8: My only question would be, okay, so what are you
Speaker 8: doing with the artists that you work with?
Speaker 4: Now?
Speaker 1: How are you doing that?
Speaker 2: I would like to say a lot of newer artists
Speaker 2: now are smarter and they're doing partnerships with labels of
Speaker 2: who they signed to. So but then again, you never know.
Speaker 1: Man, you's got still a lot of naive.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, because somebody, you know, if you've broken,
Speaker 5: somebody say you'll gonna give you half a million dollar check,
Speaker 5: but on my own, your music, the rest of your life.
Speaker 3: You're gonna take that half a million fucked up And
Speaker 3: they might not.
Speaker 1: Even say it like that.
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's forever.
Speaker 4: Here, here's five hundred K.
Speaker 1: They're gonna put it in cash right in your face too.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 5: And I'm a briefcase, and I'm pretty sure the type
Speaker 5: of artist.
Speaker 4: Take it and change, can't forget the change.
Speaker 5: Yes, I'll taking all of it.
Speaker 4: I can't forget the bust that.
Speaker 1: And you're not the only one.
Speaker 5: I'll take it, all of it. So I don't blame
Speaker 5: some of these artists that be in these messed up
Speaker 5: contracts because people make decisions based on their circumstances.
Speaker 2: Business is very but you tend to forget your circumstances
Speaker 2: when you're smarten up later when you're making money and
Speaker 2: you say, wait, damn, that five hundred K that I
Speaker 2: would received is now worth two point five million. And
Speaker 2: I would have waited and not took this and not
Speaker 2: signed this.
Speaker 4: But you never know. It's a catch twenty two. What
Speaker 4: do you do? I sit on the artist side and
Speaker 4: the label side. How do you navigate through that?
Speaker 8: I think it also comes back to like what's really
Speaker 8: important to you? Why are you doing it? What really matters?
Speaker 8: Put it in a different perspective for you.
Speaker 7: What his former artist of Mark Curry is saying that,
Speaker 7: you know, it's kind of worthless now to have the
Speaker 7: the publishers.
Speaker 1: He already ran it up. He probably was like, ain't
Speaker 1: even making.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll be forty soon, so those their fans are
Speaker 2: older thirty years.
Speaker 5: It just sounds like, you know, Puff is a great
Speaker 5: business man, that's what I say. That's what it sounds like.
Speaker 5: It just sounds like it's a great I.
Speaker 4: Don't know, no, no I talk about for the specific
Speaker 4: topic is that is that not snappable.
Speaker 6: But it's snappable?
Speaker 7: Is Deon Sanders Hey?
Speaker 2: So Deon sand News is now ranked the twenty two
Speaker 2: twenty two in the country for Colorado. They beat TCU,
Speaker 2: who was just in the National Championship against Uga.
Speaker 4: It was a good game. It was like forty something
Speaker 4: to forty something went all the way to the wire.
Speaker 8: Uh.
Speaker 2: They played Nebraska this week. I will definitely be tuned in.
Speaker 2: Shout out to Don Man for wie of those kids
Speaker 2: in them young man, and you're not gonna talk about
Speaker 2: some stats football. His son Shardor he had five hundred
Speaker 2: and ten passing yards, four touchdowns. That running back though,
Speaker 2: Man Edwards, boy, that's a bad boy.
Speaker 3: That got a squad.
Speaker 1: That's his son.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's coaching his son and looking at a lot
Speaker 2: of his sons. One play defense and one's the quarterback.
Speaker 2: That running back though he scored three times.
Speaker 3: But listen, you.
Speaker 5: Fail to forget that a lot of people thought his
Speaker 5: son was only the quarterback.
Speaker 4: Because of his son. Yeah, but he actually I've seen
Speaker 4: the game.
Speaker 2: I said, oh, he's throwing that thing and zero interceptions,
Speaker 2: zero turnovers, no fumbles, no nothing.
Speaker 4: That's crazy. You can tell ten yards.
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, either you google it.
Speaker 2: Or I watched that and started finished. I was like, damn,
Speaker 2: they really gonna pull this shit off, man, Because.
Speaker 5: TCU was like ranked Deon is getting a lot of love,
Speaker 5: but I feel like he's about to start getting a
Speaker 5: lot of hate just because.
Speaker 2: It's gonna happen more. But I believe, so this is
Speaker 2: the plan. I think Deon Sanders went to Florida State.
Speaker 2: His jersey's retired there. He's arguably one of the greatest
Speaker 2: athletes of all time. Only athlete that played in the
Speaker 2: World Series and the Super Bowl. And I know my
Speaker 2: Deon stats because he's one of my favorite football players him
Speaker 2: Michael Vick. Anyway, if he does a successful season with Colorado,
Speaker 2: he's going to.
Speaker 4: Florida State as the head coach, telling y'all now bookt and.
Speaker 3: Don't forget it.
Speaker 5: They also was talking about how they was gonna get
Speaker 5: that twenty eight million dollars if they offered to pay him.
Speaker 4: They already received the money to pay him.
Speaker 2: And Cody Shane tickets for the Colorado Colorado.
Speaker 4: Who fucking goes to Colorado to watch football?
Speaker 3: They coming down?
Speaker 2: There are four hundred dollars. That's more than an NFL game.
Speaker 2: The resale the reseller, the resale value for that is
Speaker 2: four hundred dollars.
Speaker 8: You guys are filling me up with a lot of knowledge.
Speaker 8: I'm not the big biggest football.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I'm understanding.
Speaker 4: Why what's up?
Speaker 9: It's love versus money on the ball or alert show
Speaker 9: and now it's time.
Speaker 6: For love versus money. I'm gonna give a couple and
Speaker 6: you let me know if they're there for the business
Speaker 6: or is it really love?
Speaker 7: All right, today we have Druid and Ralph Pittman business.
Speaker 8: I'm not familiar with him, so I'll just go with
Speaker 8: what he's saying because he seems trustworthy.
Speaker 3: So trustworthy guy.
Speaker 2: Ralph accuses X of proposing he adopts her son for
Speaker 2: financial gain.
Speaker 4: This is business. Sounds like a business transaction to me.
Speaker 4: They ended their eight year marriage of atlantais of Atlanta.
Speaker 5: Uh, you know, I think everything on there is strictly business.
Speaker 2: I feel kids are off limits, but I do know
Speaker 2: a mother knows her child and anything around her child.
Speaker 2: So if she feels that her husband or spouse adopted
Speaker 2: her son for financial gain, I'm more likely to say, damn,
Speaker 2: that might be right.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2: I don't know the context all the way through, but yeah, man.
Speaker 4: I'm thinking business.
Speaker 3: I'm thinking business too.
Speaker 1: This is business.
Speaker 9: We'll be right back with more of the Baller Alert Show.
Speaker 9: You're listening to a special edition of The Baller Alert Show.

Speaker 2: Oh no, I've know Coachy Shane for a very long time.
Speaker 2: I like to say we're friends. Yes, energy is crazy.
Speaker 2: Cody Shane to me was one of the biggest stars
Speaker 2: new stars. I remember what twenty six, sixteen, twenty.
Speaker 1: Seventeen, really like seventeen.
Speaker 2: Seventeen and man, I just saw I saw you in
Speaker 2: Sprike commercials.
Speaker 4: I just seen Cody Shane doing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that Spike commercial. I was like, I was clapping.
Speaker 4: I was like, wow, and what was the song?
Speaker 8: It was that A couple of Actually for the Sprike commercial.
Speaker 8: I auditioned for the commercial.
Speaker 3: Oh you auditioned.
Speaker 4: I didn't know that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they just gave it to you.
Speaker 8: I put up to a random audition. I didn't really
Speaker 8: know what was it, what it was for. Yeah, I
Speaker 8: got I was actually on the mood board for the commercial,
Speaker 8: like my pictures.
Speaker 4: Wow.
Speaker 8: And then I auditioned and they was like, man, we
Speaker 8: love her. Got the part called it sprighte.
Speaker 4: People did that come with?
Speaker 3: Like free?
Speaker 4: Did you get like free sprite?
Speaker 5: For a while, I got.
Speaker 1: A lot of Sprite, always drinking Sprite. I only like Sprite,
Speaker 1: So is that still.
Speaker 3: Market?
Speaker 8: I wanted to always be a thing. Okay, yeah no,
Speaker 8: but it was a really dope experience too. It just
Speaker 8: happened so crazy and it really just all fell together
Speaker 8: and it was one of the greatest, really really dope
Speaker 8: like set, like Sprite, The whole crew was really dope
Speaker 8: and shooting that was fire.
Speaker 7: Now, for those who don't know are unfamiliar with who
Speaker 7: you are, like, what was your claim to fame? Like
Speaker 7: what was the song or the hit that record that
Speaker 7: people know you from.
Speaker 1: I think.
Speaker 8: For me in my career, like when I first came out,
Speaker 8: Sad and and like Dripping My Walk were two really
Speaker 8: great songs that I think people really loved. But I
Speaker 8: still think for me, I'm still I'm still that record
Speaker 8: away from everything, you know what I mean. I think
Speaker 8: one of the biggest things for me and in my
Speaker 8: career and what really had me going so crazy is
Speaker 8: like all the doors I opened for other female artists
Speaker 8: just like me and in that sound and like the
Speaker 8: girls being able to run with the guys, Like for
Speaker 8: like three years, I was the only girl on Rolling
Speaker 8: Loud three four years, you know, so before that was
Speaker 8: a thing, and before that I was even thought about,
Speaker 8: I was doing it, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: So I think that was my claim to fame. That
Speaker 1: is my claim to fame is the doors I open
Speaker 1: and how I inspire people and all the girls you
Speaker 1: can listen to right now that say and you say, man,
Speaker 1: that sounds like Cody a little to me.
Speaker 6: How that's my okay? How did you get there? What
Speaker 6: was that journey like to drip on my walk?
Speaker 1: Around that time, everything was just more fun.
Speaker 8: Like now everything is really like you gotta do this,
Speaker 8: you gotta do that, you gotta be on Instagram, you
Speaker 8: gotta be on TikTok. Back then, it was new and
Speaker 8: it was fun, so it wasn't necessarily a method to
Speaker 8: the madness. It was just like we're having fun, we're
Speaker 8: being ourselves. Oh and we can post it now and
Speaker 8: we can show what you're as many people as we
Speaker 8: want to. Like, really, twenty sixteen I think is when,
Speaker 8: and then the SoundCloud era was just like really heavy
Speaker 8: and it was like way more.
Speaker 1: In our poems, like oh my god, we can just
Speaker 1: drop this.
Speaker 2: Is I feel like they're just like you that came
Speaker 2: in that SoundCloud era that got real fans still have
Speaker 2: those fans now, whereas now it's a little bit harder
Speaker 2: to get a fan base because people I feel like
Speaker 2: people have so many options. I feel like the people
Speaker 2: who kind of came up in the sound correct me,
Speaker 2: I'm wrong. In the SoundCloud era like you, Lil YACHTI
Speaker 2: and those are little it was a y'all fan base,
Speaker 2: and you were one of the first mail artists that
Speaker 2: I saw that had like die hard fans, like people
Speaker 2: showed up for you. But my question to you is
Speaker 2: around this time, and like I was saying, this is
Speaker 2: all going good, are you signed at this particular moment
Speaker 2: at that at that particular moment where you signed.
Speaker 1: This was right when I dropped.
Speaker 8: I dropped my first ep like right after that, like
Speaker 8: I dropped, sad. It depends on what time you're really
Speaker 8: talking about, because right after that I got signed.
Speaker 1: So I got signed to signed to Epic.
Speaker 5: Yeah, so you would signed when she came to the
Speaker 5: radio station, right, yes.
Speaker 8: But the deal I had was so it was such
Speaker 8: a great deal. In my favorite shout out to Epic,
Speaker 8: I love you guys forever. It was just such a
Speaker 8: great deal on my on my part.
Speaker 1: And if you're.
Speaker 8: If you're a young artist and you don't have like
Speaker 8: a hit hit like you can have a hit in
Speaker 8: the city, you can have a hit in your community,
Speaker 8: but if you don't have a hit hit you can
Speaker 8: sign to wherever. You're still moving independent, so it's not
Speaker 8: it's not like so different, but you didn't.
Speaker 1: I ask your question. It's not a fully private what
Speaker 1: was the deal.
Speaker 8: Ninety ten sinty for me, No, no, no merch like
Speaker 8: it was just like love of course, And I'm just
Speaker 8: open to talk about this now because it's been so
Speaker 8: long ago. But of course I had an advance and
Speaker 8: I was sixteen, like fifteen, you.
Speaker 1: Know what I mean.
Speaker 2: It's like I forgot to say this was like what
Speaker 2: sixteen at the time too.
Speaker 4: I forgot to say that exactly.
Speaker 8: So if you're not giving too much, if you're not
Speaker 8: getting too much, then you won't be giving too much.
Speaker 1: So it's like.
Speaker 8: I could give you one hundred thousand, but I'm only
Speaker 8: making ten percent back, you know what I'm saying, Or
Speaker 8: I could give you, So it's like it still was
Speaker 8: a very run my own race type of situation, which
Speaker 8: I was still very grateful for and amazing experience and
Speaker 8: have relationships with people now that con change it that
Speaker 8: has changed my life.
Speaker 5: Sounds like those advances, how them labels get these.
Speaker 8: Not even really not even really because it's like if
Speaker 8: I if yeah, advances is.
Speaker 1: How they get them.
Speaker 8: But when you get in advance and you only given
Speaker 8: ten percent to a to a major, but.
Speaker 4: I don't think most people's did are that great. That's good.
Speaker 2: That's why I'm like, so a big advance with you know,
Speaker 2: a lower you know, with a lower ownership percentage is
Speaker 2: probably be a lot more old on them.
Speaker 8: Yetist much different. Okay, and yeah, shout out to l
Speaker 8: a read. I think I think he just really really
Speaker 8: loved me, And.
Speaker 4: Yeah I did. That was so you were one of
Speaker 4: the first of your kind.
Speaker 2: Was that hard at first though, because I know you
Speaker 2: said it was fun, but people were looking at you like, wow,
Speaker 2: she's different. She's not usually what I would listen to.
Speaker 2: She's dope. Were there any like issues that you came
Speaker 2: around that came up around this timeframe.
Speaker 8: Or what definitely dealt with a lot of people that
Speaker 8: didn't really understand me or how to market me. Like
Speaker 8: I've had people say like, yeah, but I don't know
Speaker 8: how to market this. So that's understandable because when it's new,
Speaker 8: I guess.
Speaker 1: You should know how.
Speaker 8: It's something that's a learning process and definitely a lot
Speaker 8: of very competitive.
Speaker 1: In the male world because I am a girl.
Speaker 8: But I like girls so and I like the guys,
Speaker 8: and I dress really nice, so the girls like me too,
Speaker 8: and I'm cute, you know, and I'm p like, so
Speaker 8: they don't like it.
Speaker 1: They don't like me. I'm not.
Speaker 8: I'm not bisexual, so I'm not. I'm just saying, like
Speaker 8: the men, they feel away.
Speaker 1: God, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 8: So it's like makes it a little bit that much
Speaker 8: more competitive for me. Well it did in the past
Speaker 8: and it still does today.
Speaker 1: But I just we rally, we progress, you know what I.
Speaker 8: Mean, bitch right, So now I want you. I mean,
Speaker 8: you know, I've been around, but they've stolen mind too,
Speaker 8: So how can I I can't be pissed.
Speaker 1: I can only be real.
Speaker 8: But it's definitely been a lot of challenges in that
Speaker 8: and being, you know, the first to do something. I
Speaker 8: know we've all experienced that. Like being the first to
Speaker 8: do something, not a lot of people don't see it
Speaker 8: or see the vision or understand it because it's like
Speaker 8: the first time is happening. So you have to create
Speaker 8: your own lane for something Like I feel like when
Speaker 8: Drake first came out, we didn't understand it fully. It
Speaker 8: was like, man, this is different. This is and he
Speaker 8: just created his own lanes. I feel like that's just
Speaker 8: what it takes. I do think like linking with YACHTI
Speaker 8: in the beginning of my career was something that helped
Speaker 8: me be a little more digestible to show like me
Speaker 8: fit in.
Speaker 3: How's our relationship now? You and yay.
Speaker 1: To the whay y'all. He's a cool guy. I think.
Speaker 8: As you get older, you outgrow and you understand things
Speaker 8: differently and perspectives change and you learn how to swim.
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, not friends, no more, that's.
Speaker 8: I mean not It's just like you got to really
Speaker 8: like feel away about something to have an opinion on it.
Speaker 2: You know, I don't, no ways, Okay, So when your
Speaker 2: deal is up with Epic, what happens then?
Speaker 8: Man, that was the craziest time in my life, not
Speaker 8: only because me and Epic.
Speaker 1: When I separate and we cut.
Speaker 8: With amazingly it was great, Like they sylvia'r own, I
Speaker 8: love you, La, I still love you, Epic, the whole
Speaker 8: Epic family.
Speaker 7: That's probably why you got a good deal too, because Sylvia,
Speaker 7: you're wrong. She look out for people.
Speaker 8: Actually La signed me, okay, but when I got signed,
Speaker 8: La left, so he had to leave, So then I
Speaker 8: because then I was more he did hit right, then
Speaker 8: I'm more so built a relationship with Sylvia, which I
Speaker 8: always still loved her even when LA signed me. She
Speaker 8: was great, but I build more of a relationship with
Speaker 8: her when LA left, which I love her.
Speaker 1: You know, yeah for sure.
Speaker 7: Now I say that because you know she looked out
Speaker 7: for Missy Bust like all those people.
Speaker 1: Yeah, she's a girl's girl. Yeah.
Speaker 4: When you when you deals up with Epic, what does
Speaker 4: Cody Shane Shane do?
Speaker 3: Now?
Speaker 8: It's such a crazy time in life, not only because
Speaker 8: of Epic, but Mattie p that I created most of
Speaker 8: my sound with and grew with and learned so much from.
Speaker 1: He passed away around that same time.
Speaker 4: What year is this?
Speaker 8: This is twenty twenty, This is like twenty twenty into twenty.
Speaker 4: One, and this person is who to you?
Speaker 1: This is everything to me. This is my brother and
Speaker 1: my producer.
Speaker 8: He put me on my first beat, he recorded my
Speaker 8: first real song that I put out.
Speaker 1: We recorded everything together.
Speaker 8: This is my heart and he passed they around that
Speaker 8: same time, and my grandfather passed away around that same time,
Speaker 8: So it was like a very and plus I'm going
Speaker 8: through the most crazy public breakup of my.
Speaker 1: Life all at the same time. So it was just
Speaker 1: a very.
Speaker 8: Like in very very intense year for me, intense couple
Speaker 8: of months honestly, and so I really just like took
Speaker 8: some time to just go home and reset.
Speaker 1: I didn't make any music for almost a year.
Speaker 8: I just got heavy on my on my family and
Speaker 8: had to like really reset because it was too much
Speaker 8: happening at once. I had to take a step back.
Speaker 8: I'm glad you did that, Atlanta US swallow you up
Speaker 8: if you let it.
Speaker 4: I'm glad you shared that too. That's a thank you.
Speaker 2: You know, I'm big on mental health, so I'm glad
Speaker 2: that you took that time because some people would have
Speaker 2: crashed out.
Speaker 8: No, it's important. I went through a lot, so I
Speaker 8: had to just no phone, no nothing. It was intense,
Speaker 8: but I'm happy to be here and yes time.
Speaker 7: So it's twenty twenty when you got out of your
Speaker 7: deal into twenty one, so that's kind of recent.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, pretty recent.
Speaker 6: Okay, pretty recent.
Speaker 1: Like the end of quarantine really when Quarantine was like ending.
Speaker 7: Okay, so this is a new start for you, like
Speaker 7: being independent again, or you would you sign with another label?
Speaker 8: I really want to. I want to be like Chance
Speaker 8: the rapper and tailor Bennett. I want to be like
Speaker 8: I want that bag. I want to figure that out.
Speaker 8: I want to be.
Speaker 1: Just able to cause, like I said, when.
Speaker 8: You don't have that record or those records, you can
Speaker 8: signed to whatever label you want, you're still gonna be
Speaker 8: running your ship independent into your like truly a priority.
Speaker 8: So I don't want to go nowhere until I got
Speaker 8: real leverage, until I'm like, na, this is what I
Speaker 8: want and beyond that. And when I get to that point,
Speaker 8: I still might not even want to do that because
Speaker 8: it's like when you really got your business together and
Speaker 8: you got great people around you that love you and
Speaker 8: want to see you win, Like, there's no.
Speaker 1: Why give yoursel Why give yourself away?
Speaker 3: It's rappers and independent.
Speaker 8: If there's a way to keep you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 8: You your your intellectual property. If there's a way to
Speaker 8: keep it and to maintain it and to take care
Speaker 8: of your family in that way, why would you do
Speaker 8: anything different if there's a way. Yeah, Chance is like
Speaker 8: I think he has a partnership with Apple.
Speaker 1: I might be wrong.
Speaker 8: I don't want to be wrong, but there're out of here.
Speaker 1: I like that.
Speaker 8: I want to be like, you should reach out to him. Oh,
Speaker 8: I shout out to Taylor Bennett. I really really, I
Speaker 8: really really rock with his brother. That's for homies. So
Speaker 8: I'm trying to soak up all the game I can.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's good.
Speaker 3: What's some mistakes that you made early on in your career?
Speaker 1: I have one question though, is Russ who's rust signed to?
Speaker 2: I want to be like Russ and Russ used to
Speaker 2: be signed to r c A.
Speaker 1: That's that's the lane you see that, Like, no, you.
Speaker 5: Don't have a lot of free games, so you.
Speaker 8: Don't have to hear about this man for six months.
Speaker 8: And in those six months he was in Egypt and
Speaker 8: all around the world, you know what I mean? Like,
Speaker 8: that's what I care about. Like, but that's what I
Speaker 8: said earlier. It comes back around to how much does
Speaker 8: it matter to you? Do you care about the popularity?
Speaker 8: Do you care about? What do you care about? What
Speaker 8: are you doing it for?
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 8: And that's when Oh, I'm gonna take the five hundred
Speaker 8: thousand and the chain in the car. That's when that
Speaker 8: perspective comes in. It's like, how much do you care?
Speaker 8: But yeah, I love us mistakes that I made.
Speaker 1: I think.
Speaker 8: Not being present was present in like every moment when
Speaker 8: I was young, Like I said, a lot of things
Speaker 8: were fun. So I was just floating and moving and
Speaker 8: being where they told me to be and showing up
Speaker 8: and being great at being there so people would invite
Speaker 8: me back. But I wasn't necessarily like totally being present
Speaker 8: and like nurturing my relationships and the people that I
Speaker 8: was meeting, because when you're so young, you're not really
Speaker 8: You're just not thinking about it. Yeah, I'm just like
Speaker 8: and I'm just having fun and oh my god, they
Speaker 8: love this. I'm just gonna keep doing I'm just gonna
Speaker 8: keep doing that instead of being like man like really
Speaker 8: like soaking it up and being in these moments and
Speaker 8: like checking on people, you know, like nurturing your relationships.
Speaker 1: I think that's one of the biggest things.
Speaker 8: But other than that, I'm a firm believer and everything
Speaker 8: happens as it should. I wouldn't be the person I
Speaker 8: am today if I didn't go through all the all
Speaker 8: the bullshit.
Speaker 9: We'll be right back. Stay tuned with more of the
Speaker 9: Baller Alert Show. You're listening to a special edition of

Speaker 2: So so does party Shane still make good money? Like
Speaker 2: with stream and I.
Speaker 8: Feel like I stream very well. It's just all about marketing.
Speaker 8: I think marketing is the biggest thing ever. If people
Speaker 8: don't see it, they won't know about it.
Speaker 6: Is your loyal fan base still with you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, shout out to shangang.
Speaker 8: Ist like that's the thing, and that's I'll bring up
Speaker 8: Russ again like he started in those three hundred rooms,
Speaker 8: went up to five, went up to fifteen. And those
Speaker 8: people are like people that no matter what, if he drives,
Speaker 8: they're gonna buy it.
Speaker 1: Rather it's closed tickets, a book, it doesn't.
Speaker 8: Matter what it is, they're gonna buy it because he's
Speaker 8: been loyal to those people.
Speaker 2: And you know, and question when you took your mental
Speaker 2: break and you were, you know, getting your things together mentally,
Speaker 2: did you update your fans about that or what happened
Speaker 2: like because people were probably saying, hey, where's the music?
Speaker 4: What we're doing?
Speaker 8: I think that time was so detrimental to me and
Speaker 8: so like so important and so everything that it couldn't
Speaker 8: it just had to be about that. It couldn't be
Speaker 8: about oh I have to make because really in all
Speaker 8: reality and like actuality, like ten years ago, twenty years ago,
Speaker 8: you wouldn't really have to update people, right, you know
Speaker 8: what I'm saying, because this is life, like this is
Speaker 8: the internet and then this is life. And when it
Speaker 8: gets so serious to a point. It's like I shouldn't
Speaker 8: have to, you know.
Speaker 1: What I'm saying.
Speaker 2: We were just Jamie Fox had to update his fan base, dude,
Speaker 2: because he took that he was sick but he was
Speaker 2: feeling better, and he didn't say.
Speaker 3: Anybody that I told him.
Speaker 5: His fan base is getting mad because this is like
Speaker 5: the new thing on the internet. It's like you have
Speaker 5: to publicize everything that's going on in your.
Speaker 8: Life, and I think people have to take a step
Speaker 8: back and realize, like you can't expect people to do
Speaker 8: things that you don't even do, as in, like you're
Speaker 8: not updating me, You're not updating your twelve followers about
Speaker 8: the fact that you had a stroke or or whatever,
Speaker 8: had a heart attack.
Speaker 1: Why why should I have to do it? Because it's
Speaker 1: a million of you guys.
Speaker 8: I understand your your your love for me, but it's
Speaker 8: like the entitlement, Like it's like, why are you publicly
Speaker 8: apologizing that you cheated on your wife?
Speaker 1: Who is that for?
Speaker 8: I understand women aren't get embarrassed, but it's like there's
Speaker 8: life and then their social media. It's like some peoples
Speaker 8: are like totally intertwined and attached.
Speaker 5: I think the fans of just who invested with talent now,
Speaker 5: because I believe you know, obviously, you know I was
Speaker 5: an adult back in the time of like Michael Jackson
Speaker 5: and saying what that was. But I feel like if
Speaker 5: somebody of like those artists back in the day, I
Speaker 5: feel like they can go through things and they fans
Speaker 5: will understand, like this person is human.
Speaker 3: They go through things a.
Speaker 1: Press release at the most, you know what I mean.
Speaker 8: But like, also, don't get me wrong, like I don't
Speaker 8: have the best communication when it comes to my fans
Speaker 8: because again, like I am, I'm an artist, so I
Speaker 8: like to just flow.
Speaker 1: So it's I'm.
Speaker 8: Not the best at it, but I thing, yeah, okay,
Speaker 8: But I do think my fans are really firing that
Speaker 8: way to where it's like they understand that I'm a
Speaker 8: real person.
Speaker 1: So shout out to the people that love me and
Speaker 1: the new people. I am a real person.
Speaker 6: So now what are you working on? You have new music?
Speaker 8: Yes, I just dropped the Epece four thirty two. It's
Speaker 8: your Last Chance to dance. I'm really really excited about it.
Speaker 8: It's like a in the summer house vibe. It's really fire.
Speaker 8: I've been really passionate about it. Wanting to people, wanting
Speaker 8: to make people dance and have a good time. So
Speaker 8: I'm really really excited about that. And then I'm working
Speaker 8: on a more of an R and B type of
Speaker 8: thank you. Yeah, I got some really really fire stuff.
Speaker 8: So I'm working on like an R and B project
Speaker 8: from for the top of the year.
Speaker 6: I like, it's the Last Chance to Dance.
Speaker 1: Your last chance to dance? Yeah, excite? Where'd that come from?
Speaker 8: We actually I was making a bunch of music and
Speaker 8: then I kind of just looked up. Me and my
Speaker 8: homie Evans, we kind of just looked up, like, man,
Speaker 8: let's make an house project, Like let's make something a
Speaker 8: little more experimental, but that's still me. And then later
Speaker 8: after the music was done, I ended up doing a party,
Speaker 8: Me and my DJ. We ended up throwing a party
Speaker 8: and we named it Last Chance to Dance, like at District.
Speaker 8: So we so after just doing the party and how
Speaker 8: that branded so nicely, like that was like such a
Speaker 8: cool little thing, we were like, let's just make the
Speaker 8: project sounds like like sounds for thirty two is a
Speaker 8: frequency which music is tuned into tuned in and it
Speaker 8: it's kind of like a just a relaxing frequency. So
Speaker 8: we kind of made last chance to dance and installment
Speaker 8: of that and it kind of just worked like it
Speaker 8: just aligned.
Speaker 1: Let it happen.
Speaker 5: Nice.
Speaker 1: Yeah, fire, super fire, go listen to that.

Speaker 8: What you mean, what big doll?
Speaker 2: You should have at least got an uber, bro, Okay,
Speaker 2: if she got you know, she probably had the curls.
Speaker 2: The curls probably flew out the window. When she had
Speaker 2: a wig on, she probably flew off. She said her
Speaker 2: eyelasses were shot. Well if she didn't even have any eyelashes.
Speaker 2: Some people look crazy with the eyelashes.
Speaker 1: Okay, he could have warned her, He could have let
Speaker 1: her know.
