00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:35,880
Speaker 3: I'm great, Thank you, Thank you so much for having

27
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:36,520
Speaker 3: me today.

28
00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 1: I got a chance to meet you.

29
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,280
Speaker 2: I was a named Man of the Year at the

30
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,280
Speaker 2: by the Stemalanta Women Program and I was.

31
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:46,399
Speaker 1: Thank you.

32
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:50,560
Speaker 2: And you know, you get these honors and you don't.

33
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 1: Work for that.

34
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:56,120
Speaker 2: You work to change the community, change individuals, moving people

35
00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:58,920
Speaker 2: forward and forward. And I look at your background, that

36
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:03,160
Speaker 2: is you, doctor Lee. Why are you so engaged in

37
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 2: community uplift?

38
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 3: I just honestly believe in giving back. I think one

39
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:12,440
Speaker 3: of the biggest lessons I've learned in my corporate career

40
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:14,920
Speaker 3: that it's not just what you know and what you

41
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 3: can do, but it's who you know and who you

42
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,720
Speaker 3: can network and how you learn from others. And so

43
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:25,920
Speaker 3: that's just been one of my personal passions throughout my career.

44
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:28,080
Speaker 3: How can I help others. I do a lot of

45
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:32,120
Speaker 3: work in mentoring young people and mentoring and just supporting

46
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:37,560
Speaker 3: through various foundations and most recently through the Antsifhast Family Fund,

47
00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:41,400
Speaker 3: which is as a musician, I grew up playing the

48
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:45,080
Speaker 3: piano in church and singing and then got into the

49
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:48,959
Speaker 3: field of technology, and all of these things are interrelated

50
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 3: and connect and help to build not only individuals, but

51
00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:57,359
Speaker 3: have a tremendous impact on our society and in our

52
00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:00,919
Speaker 3: industries and just in being successful in individuals. So it's

53
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:02,520
Speaker 3: just something that's always been a part of me.

54
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:05,760
Speaker 2: And so when you talk about the reason I got

55
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:07,000
Speaker 2: you on the show, because you're on the board of

56
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 2: directors of the Anne Seifa's Family Fund Corporation, give us

57
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 2: a little background in history under Anne Sifha's Family Fund Corporation,

58
00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:19,600
Speaker 2: which is based in Atlanta, Georgia, and serves the Greater

59
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:21,600
Speaker 2: Gwyne Gwinett County.

60
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:23,880
Speaker 3: Yeset County students.

61
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, ninth to the twelfth grade.

62
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:31,240
Speaker 3: Correct, yes, yes, you're high school age students. So the

63
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:36,000
Speaker 3: organization was founded back in twenty twenty three. It was

64
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 3: founded by Miss Latavio Woodward, who was also one of

65
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:42,800
Speaker 3: the stem Atlanta Whim honorees and her family, her husband

66
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 3: and her five children, and the organization was founded in

67
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 3: memory and in honor of her mother, An Cephas, for

68
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 3: whom the organization is named. Miss Cephus's journey, as many

69
00:03:54,680 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 3: in that generation, was her dreams and aspirations were interrupt

70
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:03,280
Speaker 3: it just by life's challenges, and she found herself having

71
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:07,120
Speaker 3: to stop her education at age sixteen. But she had

72
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 3: a tremendous passion for technology. She wanted to work with computers,

73
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 3: and she did not get that opportunity at that time,

74
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:20,400
Speaker 3: but she never lost that passion and that understanding for

75
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:24,960
Speaker 3: how important education and having an education was. And you

76
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,440
Speaker 3: couple that with her watching her grandson, one of Miss

77
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:31,920
Speaker 3: Woodward's children we know as Offset, who's an accomplished artist today,

78
00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:37,240
Speaker 3: watching his journey and the challenges and the opportunities that

79
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:40,520
Speaker 3: he faced as he began to build his musical career.

80
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:43,920
Speaker 3: And so the family got together and they thought, in

81
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:48,560
Speaker 3: honoring her, they would establish an organization that brought together

82
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:53,480
Speaker 3: the desire for education and making sure that creatives got educations,

83
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 3: but embracing those creatives, helping them embrace their passion, but

84
00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 3: to do so in a way that help them really graduate,

85
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:06,360
Speaker 3: first of all from high school, to train them and

86
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:09,800
Speaker 3: help them build those skills, not only from a creative perspective,

87
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:12,279
Speaker 3: but to build those supportive skills that they needed to

88
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 3: be successful in industry, whether they selected music as their

89
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 3: final goal or even in other industries. To build those

90
00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:23,000
Speaker 3: supportive skills, those soft skills as well as our skills,

91
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:26,680
Speaker 3: and help them to establish sustainable creative careers.

92
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:30,920
Speaker 2: Cool, and we're talking about the ant Sefhast Family Fund Corporation.

93
00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:34,640
Speaker 2: My degree is in mathematics, which is directly aligned with STEM,

94
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:36,960
Speaker 2: and this is what we're talking about STEM. You know,

95
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:40,440
Speaker 2: we're talking about AI. We're talking about the next level

96
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:44,000
Speaker 2: of opportunities that are being made available where you start

97
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:47,919
Speaker 2: seeing electric cars, you start seeing these commercials, people are

98
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:50,839
Speaker 2: actually having conversations with their cell.

99
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:54,240
Speaker 1: Phones and general conversations. You going to see.

100
00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:58,520
Speaker 2: You go in stores and you see robots making pies

101
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:02,640
Speaker 2: and service. I made this restaurant our pastors and the

102
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:05,640
Speaker 2: server was not a human being. My food was brought

103
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 2: out on the cart by a robot. And so that's

104
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,560
Speaker 2: the part of this conversation that we're talking about. And

105
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:15,040
Speaker 2: that's why I was excited about bringing you on the show,

106
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:19,480
Speaker 2: because you are looking at from a visionary perspective. You're

107
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:22,520
Speaker 2: not looking at what has happened, but what will happen.

108
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 2: Continue the conversation, doctor Lee.

109
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:31,040
Speaker 3: Yes, absolutely, we find that this is the digital age

110
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:36,799
Speaker 3: and technology is disrupting every aspect of our lives. I remember,

111
00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 3: and I'm up dating myself, but when I went to college,

112
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:43,840
Speaker 3: debit cards were just being introduced, and now people really

113
00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:46,719
Speaker 3: carry cash. Not only did they not carry cash, they're

114
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:50,200
Speaker 3: using their phones to pay for things. So we see

115
00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:54,640
Speaker 3: where technology is really disrupting and taking over every aspect

116
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:59,680
Speaker 3: of our society. And it's the same within the music industry.

117
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:04,280
Speaker 3: Musicians can use AI to help with their songwriting process,

118
00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:09,480
Speaker 3: to expedite it, to provide more opportunities, more insights, more perspectives.

119
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:13,000
Speaker 3: We use project management tools and you'll find this in

120
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:15,760
Speaker 3: our programs where we actually go back we use We

121
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:20,480
Speaker 3: introduce our students to Trello to help manage their projects.

122
00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 3: So they're managing the creative process, their production processes, their

123
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:31,120
Speaker 3: marketing processes, all using technologies. They use chat, GPT, they

124
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 3: use mid Journey, we're using Adobe. We're using all of

125
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,520
Speaker 3: these emerging tools to teach them how to apply them

126
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 3: in their creative journeys. And I think that's so important

127
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:45,480
Speaker 3: when we think about technology and our youth, we think

128
00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:48,800
Speaker 3: of just social media, but that's only one small portion

129
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:52,720
Speaker 3: of what technology is and what technology can be used for.

130
00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 3: So we want to make sure that they're exposed to

131
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,280
Speaker 3: these tools so that they can go into a production

132
00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 3: studio so that they can apply these in order to

133
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 3: produce their music and to help refine and expand and

134
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 3: grow in their creative side as well as as well

135
00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:12,520
Speaker 3: as embracing and cultivating the natural talent that they have.

136
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:15,400
Speaker 2: Okay, cool, now, it's great to hear this because of

137
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:18,560
Speaker 2: the fact that as a minority, as I am and

138
00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:21,600
Speaker 2: as you are, you know, we all all the last

139
00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 2: to the table because no one wants to give us

140
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:26,360
Speaker 2: the information and then all of a sudden, when they

141
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:29,040
Speaker 2: provide us with the information, is like a handout, like

142
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,760
Speaker 2: you know, you really don't deserve it. Here's something and

143
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:34,440
Speaker 2: you get half of the information. That is why I

144
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:39,840
Speaker 2: feel that diversity equit inclusion, which is about diversify and

145
00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:45,240
Speaker 2: sharing opportunities, has been beat up because it's been changed

146
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:47,080
Speaker 2: in the way it's being presented.

147
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 1: It makes a handout and it's never been a handout.

148
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:53,719
Speaker 2: It's just cutting up the pie because you still got

149
00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:56,199
Speaker 2: to qualify, you still got to pull out the PaperWorks.

150
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 2: If you're not qualified, you don't get to participate. But

151
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 2: politically it has been politicized. And so how do you

152
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:08,120
Speaker 2: avoid a program like this The an Cephuss Family Fund Corporation,

153
00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:12,920
Speaker 2: which is the Dynamics of Educating ninth through twelfth, a

154
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:17,320
Speaker 2: pilot program that runs simultaneously with the school period, from

155
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:20,040
Speaker 2: becoming politicized The lead, You.

156
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:25,040
Speaker 3: Know, that's an excellent and excellent question. I think that

157
00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:30,800
Speaker 3: no one can dispute the fact that technology is disrupting

158
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:36,839
Speaker 3: our society, and therefore, in order to succeed in society,

159
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:42,439
Speaker 3: you have to understand technology, and especially technology and how

160
00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,640
Speaker 3: it's used in whatever industry you plan to pursue. So

161
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:47,960
Speaker 3: what we aim to do is we're going to give

162
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 3: our kids what they need and as well as make

163
00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:56,520
Speaker 3: sure that they also follow through with those fundamental aspects.

164
00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:59,280
Speaker 3: We're not saying you don't have to go to high school.

165
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:01,760
Speaker 3: You have to go to school. We want you to

166
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:05,000
Speaker 3: go to school. This is an important piece of your

167
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:08,880
Speaker 3: of your training, and of your development. So we are

168
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:13,200
Speaker 3: really looking to help incorporate those things and as a

169
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:16,280
Speaker 3: as an organization, we're providing what they may not get

170
00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:20,240
Speaker 3: in a mainstream environment. Many of our schools don't have

171
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:22,960
Speaker 3: these types of programs, but there are many of our

172
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:26,880
Speaker 3: high schools that do. I know Atlanta Public Schools they

173
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 3: have a full blown music production studio in one of

174
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:35,200
Speaker 3: their high schools. So, but again, all of our students

175
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:39,080
Speaker 3: may not get the opportunity to participate in those programs

176
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:41,800
Speaker 3: because they have to have the grades. Yes, it's all

177
00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:45,960
Speaker 3: about inclusion. It's all about providing them that opportunity, but

178
00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:49,040
Speaker 3: we also have to make sure that our youth understand

179
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:51,440
Speaker 3: the importance of those opportunities.

180
00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 1: Before we go any further ins interview, how do they

181
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:55,800
Speaker 1: get in touch with you? How is their website?

182
00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 2: Because I want people to start, we're doing their research,

183
00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:02,840
Speaker 2: start in this process of writing down the right contact information,

184
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:05,400
Speaker 2: because that's what happens as well. It's so many great

185
00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 2: programs of our programs out there, but nobody knows how

186
00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:10,319
Speaker 2: to participate because guess what, they don't have the right

187
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 2: contact information. How does one if they're listening to this interview,

188
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,600
Speaker 2: how does one participate or get their child involved?

189
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:21,440
Speaker 3: They can go directly to the ANCIPHAST website. It's an

190
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:27,520
Speaker 3: a n n ceph us ff dot org.

191
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:30,600
Speaker 1: Cool. Now that's great.

192
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:34,640
Speaker 2: Now, what are the goals for twenty twenty five with

193
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 2: the foundation and the kids nine through twelve, ninth through

194
00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:39,480
Speaker 2: twelfth grade.

195
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:42,440
Speaker 3: So we ran a pilot program last school year where

196
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:45,480
Speaker 3: we service nine students in Gwinnett High School in the

197
00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:51,000
Speaker 3: Gwenette County High School System, and we've refined the program

198
00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:54,800
Speaker 3: a bit so students can go on right now register

199
00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:58,560
Speaker 3: and even for the remainder of the remaining months of

200
00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:02,600
Speaker 3: the school year, we provide them with the exposure, with

201
00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:07,920
Speaker 3: the instruction to participate in the program. So let me

202
00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:11,520
Speaker 3: step back and explain our flagship program. It's called the

203
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:15,560
Speaker 3: three R nine in program. It stands for three roles

204
00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 3: in nine months. So typically we expose our students to

205
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:26,160
Speaker 3: the creative side songwriting, composing, recording, then the business side,

206
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:30,959
Speaker 3: the marketing, the management, the operations, and then the technology

207
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:34,679
Speaker 3: side how insect the intersection of music and technology, so

208
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:38,560
Speaker 3: they get they get an opportunity to experience all of

209
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:41,680
Speaker 3: the aspects. So if you're an artist, and yes you're creative,

210
00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:43,959
Speaker 3: you're going to focus on your craft, but you need

211
00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:47,240
Speaker 3: to know all of the pieces behind the scenes that

212
00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:50,520
Speaker 3: help you to become that artist, that help you in

213
00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:53,760
Speaker 3: a performance. One of our students last year got an

214
00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:56,679
Speaker 3: opportunity to attend the Drake Concert and to see the

215
00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,280
Speaker 3: set production that has to go on, how that has

216
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 3: to online, the music. So this program exposes our students

217
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:06,560
Speaker 3: to all of that. So it's not that we're teaching

218
00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:12,800
Speaker 3: them their craft. They are incredibly talented, incredibly talented youth.

219
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:17,280
Speaker 3: We had one student that actually played nine different instruments

220
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:20,440
Speaker 3: and wrote songs. So you have these children that have

221
00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:23,640
Speaker 3: this natural talent that we want to cultivate, that we

222
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:27,400
Speaker 3: want to expose. So this program gives them an opportunity

223
00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:30,680
Speaker 3: to have hands on experience doing that. So we have

224
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:34,000
Speaker 3: virtual classes, we introduce them to experts in the industry,

225
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 3: they are able to ask questions, they were able to learn,

226
00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:40,679
Speaker 3: and then we have these networking opportunities that they have.

227
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:43,640
Speaker 3: But we also visit studios so they can get some

228
00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:46,120
Speaker 3: of that hands on experience and then they are able

229
00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:48,720
Speaker 3: to collaborate not only with their peers that may have

230
00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:52,680
Speaker 3: different skill sets, they can showcase their skills with one another.

231
00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:55,440
Speaker 3: They are able to showcase at the end of the

232
00:13:55,480 --> 00:14:00,000
Speaker 3: school year those skills and just getting them an opportunity

233
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:04,720
Speaker 3: unity to build their technology skills, to refine to accelerate

234
00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:09,720
Speaker 3: and just and to just improve how they can deliver

235
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:10,560
Speaker 3: their talent.

236
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:13,400
Speaker 1: Please don't go anywhere.

237
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:17,280

242
00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:41,800
Speaker 1: I'm talking to doctor Glennis Lee.

243
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:44,920
Speaker 2: She is on the board of the Ann Sifas Family

244
00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:48,760
Speaker 2: Fund Corporation. We mentioned Offset earlier, you know, just letting

245
00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:53,360
Speaker 2: everybody know it's not about meeting Offset. She said three things.

246
00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:55,600
Speaker 2: There are three things you have to do. Not meet

247
00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 2: him and get the linograph for herself. You know you

248
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 2: might you might not show up to graduation. So just

249
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:04,280
Speaker 2: know this is a nine month program, so you got

250
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,000
Speaker 2: a period of time. You have to accomplish some tasks

251
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:10,120
Speaker 2: before you even meet him. There's no guarantee. The guarantee

252
00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:14,400
Speaker 2: is this is a STEM based organization. There's about creative,

253
00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:18,440
Speaker 2: technology and business those three levels. Now, being my background,

254
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:20,560
Speaker 2: you know I want in the stand up comic I

255
00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:25,160
Speaker 2: managed a superstar talent like Steve Harvey, currently manages Steven

256
00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:27,560
Speaker 2: A Smith Sherry Shepard.

257
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:31,000
Speaker 1: Talk show host. So I know I met a lot

258
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:31,680
Speaker 1: of Beyonce.

259
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:34,520
Speaker 2: I introduced her on stage back in Houston a law

260
00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:36,960
Speaker 2: Whence she was a member of the Destiny's Child alow

261
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:41,040
Speaker 2: with Kelly Rowland Michelle Weavers. So I can speak of

262
00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:43,440
Speaker 2: a lot of famous people that I've been involved with.

263
00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:47,480
Speaker 2: But in the process, that's the creative side I'm introducing you.

264
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:50,080
Speaker 2: You've seen them do stand up, You've seen them sing,

265
00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:52,440
Speaker 2: You've seen these people act, you see them on TV.

266
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 2: But it's the business side that creates the longevity of it.

267
00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:01,840
Speaker 2: Having the right lawyer, making sure that your music is copyrting,

268
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:06,160
Speaker 2: making sure that you're not playing using music that needs

269
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:07,920
Speaker 2: to be licensed, and they come back and say you

270
00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:10,600
Speaker 2: owe it? Is this amount of money that's the business now?

271
00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:14,040
Speaker 2: Because you know in this business, doctor Lee, is that

272
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:16,400
Speaker 2: so many of these kids probably showed up with tapes.

273
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:19,640
Speaker 2: You know, I got my mill, They ready to go.

274
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:22,880
Speaker 2: They just want you to here's my tape. Where can

275
00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:24,480
Speaker 2: I get it played? Can I get it in the radio?

276
00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:25,280
Speaker 1: And all that stuff?

277
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:29,040
Speaker 2: How do you slow down those individuals but still keep

278
00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:31,400
Speaker 2: them focused on doing it right.

279
00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:36,400
Speaker 3: It's funny you asked that question, But I think a

280
00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 3: lot of the incentive is the money that they can

281
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 3: make and understanding, understanding that. If you don't understand these things,

282
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:49,480
Speaker 3: you sign away your rights to your own creative license.

283
00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:53,240
Speaker 3: So you're signing your name away, you're signing your ability

284
00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:58,520
Speaker 3: to have sustainable, recurring passive income because you don't understand

285
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:01,800
Speaker 3: how royalties work in the end history. You don't understand

286
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,720
Speaker 3: that if you sign and that line says you do

287
00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:07,800
Speaker 3: X y Z. You mentioned having a great lawyer, that

288
00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:11,800
Speaker 3: this line says I have this this recording company or

289
00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:15,960
Speaker 3: this agency now owns your music. That means that you

290
00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:20,480
Speaker 3: don't own it anymore. So how do you protect your

291
00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:25,680
Speaker 3: your your your intellectual property? Yes, you are your asset

292
00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:27,880
Speaker 3: and how do you protect that? And I think when

293
00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:30,480
Speaker 3: you when you really get them, when they really understand

294
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:35,119
Speaker 3: that piece, they become more open to Yes, let me

295
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:38,160
Speaker 3: understand how this business is operating. And you will hear

296
00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:40,640
Speaker 3: many say I just want to write the music. Well,

297
00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:42,600
Speaker 3: you also want to live. You also want to make

298
00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:44,920
Speaker 3: the money. You also want to have income. You don't

299
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:47,359
Speaker 3: you want you don't want to have to file bankruptcy

300
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:50,080
Speaker 3: three years after you get your first big contract. You

301
00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:52,199
Speaker 3: want to be able. You want to learn how to

302
00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:54,359
Speaker 3: live and how to manage that money, even from a

303
00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:58,320
Speaker 3: personal aspect, as you, as you, as you progress in

304
00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:00,679
Speaker 3: the industry, as you grow, and.

305
00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:03,160
Speaker 1: Doctor Lee, I want to share this story. I want

306
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:04,399
Speaker 1: to share the story what you're about.

307
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:08,159
Speaker 2: Why is important to have the business side straight. I

308
00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:11,560
Speaker 2: was interviewing Jermaine Dupree and it was right around the

309
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:15,200
Speaker 2: whole COVID side when the world was shut down, and

310
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:19,400
Speaker 2: that's when he realized the business side that he locked down.

311
00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:22,720
Speaker 2: We call it mailbox money. It means that he didn't

312
00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:26,040
Speaker 2: do anything. He didn't write a song, he didn't perform,

313
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:30,560
Speaker 2: and checks were coming in because he did the business right.

314
00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:33,680
Speaker 2: That means songs were still being played, songs will still

315
00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:36,920
Speaker 2: being streaming, and he was getting paid for that. And

316
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:39,120
Speaker 2: that's what they need to understand. And that's what you're

317
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:40,160
Speaker 2: telling these jungk people.

318
00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:41,680
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, if you do it.

319
00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:45,640
Speaker 2: Right, when you think the whole world is you retired,

320
00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:46,960
Speaker 2: you still get these checks.

321
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:48,639
Speaker 1: You can get these checks to you.

322
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:52,360
Speaker 2: You can actually pass these checks to your children if

323
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,159
Speaker 2: you do it right business wise, correct.

324
00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:59,800
Speaker 3: Correct, correct, absolutely, and then that big hit becomes a

325
00:18:59,880 --> 00:19:02,359
Speaker 3: hit for the rest of your life. Even you know,

326
00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:05,720
Speaker 3: you know, I often you know, we often laugh about

327
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:09,080
Speaker 3: Frankly Frankie Beverly amazed that they had that one or

328
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:11,119
Speaker 3: two good albums and they.

329
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:17,359
Speaker 1: Would before I let go come on, like they.

330
00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:19,320
Speaker 3: Never let go, They never let go down.

331
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:28,159
Speaker 5: So them boys is seventy seven girl nineteen seventy seven,

332
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:34,280
Speaker 5: since that doesn't happen music and maybe millions of dollars,

333
00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:36,920
Speaker 5: you know, and these songs have been read song and

334
00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:39,359
Speaker 5: they owned the rights to them. Every time somebody play

335
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:42,320
Speaker 5: that song, or somebody redoes that song or puts a

336
00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:44,800
Speaker 5: rap on the bites, the.

337
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:46,840
Speaker 3: Covers, the beats, everything.

338
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:50,800
Speaker 1: We were talking that it's a legacy. That's what it's

339
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:51,720
Speaker 1: really about.

340
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:55,160
Speaker 2: It because what we discovered was that, you know, especially

341
00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:57,959
Speaker 2: a lot of songs and artists who were just singers,

342
00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:01,159
Speaker 2: you know, from the sounds of music, the Philadelphia sound,

343
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:05,119
Speaker 2: the Motown sounds, a lot of sounds out of Memphis.

344
00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:08,639
Speaker 2: They were just artists. And so when the songs were played,

345
00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:09,760
Speaker 2: even though their voce was on.

346
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:12,400
Speaker 1: It, they didn't get a check. They didn't get a check.

347
00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:15,119
Speaker 2: They were just performing. They got paid and guess what

348
00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:17,960
Speaker 2: got paid for their services. But the longevity of being

349
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:20,680
Speaker 2: able to own the rights to that music they didn't

350
00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:23,800
Speaker 2: get to participate in and that as a publisher. And

351
00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 2: that is what we're talking about. We're talking about what

352
00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:31,400
Speaker 2: the ant Sipho's Family Fund Corporation does. They're engaging kids

353
00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:34,640
Speaker 2: ninth through twelfth grade with a program.

354
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:36,159
Speaker 1: This is the second year of the program. They're the

355
00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:39,840
Speaker 1: pilot program with nine young students. And these nine young

356
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:43,240
Speaker 1: students are now aware of the creative process.

357
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:46,840
Speaker 2: That's what introduced them into the program, the ant Siphas's

358
00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:50,400
Speaker 2: Family Fund Corporation program. But what they realized and what

359
00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:53,680
Speaker 2: doctor Lee realizes that if we don't teach these kids

360
00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:56,640
Speaker 2: about business, then they will not be aware of all

361
00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,600
Speaker 2: their technology advantages that are out there, like you said,

362
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:05,119
Speaker 2: Chad Ai using music, to using AI to write music,

363
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:07,919
Speaker 2: to be created with lyrics and all these different things.

364
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:10,639
Speaker 2: Because that's where we are headed. As we close this

365
00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:12,240
Speaker 2: interview out and now I want to thank you for

Speaker 2: Yes, you know that's beautiful because you know, like I said,

382
00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:13,960
Speaker 2: I just want to let you know that it was

383
00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:15,600
Speaker 2: the first time I heard of this program and that's

384
00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:16,200
Speaker 2: not a bad thing.

385
00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:18,879
Speaker 1: It's that. But you need volunteers.

386
00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:21,200
Speaker 2: You need people like me who are willing to come

387
00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:24,120
Speaker 2: in and speak, who have a resume that will get

388
00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:25,120
Speaker 2: these kids attention.

389
00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:28,359
Speaker 1: They'll make sure they understand. But I guess I also

390
00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:28,720
Speaker 1: want to.

391
00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:32,280
Speaker 2: Know is the type of students that you are are

392
00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:34,639
Speaker 2: you that benefits of this type of program? Are they

393
00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:38,320
Speaker 2: at risk students? Are they students celebrated students? How do

394
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:41,520
Speaker 2: these students find out about the program and who are

395
00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:43,080
Speaker 2: you targeting, doctor Lee.

396
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:47,399
Speaker 3: Yes, we are really targeting those at risk creatives. Many times,

397
00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:50,520
Speaker 3: are you feel that if they want to pursue, particularly

398
00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:52,560
Speaker 3: your music career, and we often see this in the

399
00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:56,800
Speaker 3: sports arena too, that they let their academics slide. So

400
00:22:57,280 --> 00:23:00,119
Speaker 3: one of our first goals is to help contribute to

401
00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:04,400
Speaker 3: increasing our graduation rate in Gwinnett County among our young

402
00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:08,000
Speaker 3: among our at risk uths. So we want to help

403
00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:12,160
Speaker 3: motivate and inspire them to continue their high school education.

404
00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:15,919
Speaker 3: But in doing so in parallel and in conjunction with

405
00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:21,359
Speaker 3: also helping to refine and build and cultivate their creative aspirations.

406
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:24,600
Speaker 3: So helping them see that it's it's not it's not

407
00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:26,760
Speaker 3: a zerosome game. It's not that you either do this

408
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:29,320
Speaker 3: or do that. You do them together and if you

409
00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:33,119
Speaker 3: do it together well, you can propel your success even further.

410
00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:37,320
Speaker 3: So that's really that's really what we aim for. So

411
00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:40,159
Speaker 3: most of our students are average students, they're students that

412
00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:43,840
Speaker 3: have lost interest in school, So we really want to

413
00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:48,840
Speaker 3: help inspire them and motivate them to regain that understanding. Like, hey,

414
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:51,320
Speaker 3: if you want to make money and if you want

415
00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:53,000
Speaker 3: to have money, you need to know your math.

416
00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:55,520
Speaker 1: You know, you have to know math.

417
00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:58,399
Speaker 3: So it kind of inspires them and gives them a

418
00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:02,000
Speaker 3: different perspective on how they view their high school education.

419
00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:06,040
Speaker 3: So that's who we're targeting now. We work directly with

420
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:08,840
Speaker 3: our high school. So we go and we talk to counselors,

421
00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:12,480
Speaker 3: we talk to principles. Sometimes they identify students that say, hey,

422
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:15,119
Speaker 3: this may be a great person for your program. But

423
00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:19,040
Speaker 3: we also communicated out to parents, We communicate it out

424
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:21,959
Speaker 3: to the churches here in the great and then when

425
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:25,640
Speaker 3: that county area. We want everyone to know about the program,

426
00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:29,480
Speaker 3: and to be honest, we haven't turned anyone away that

427
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:33,840
Speaker 3: has expressed interest. We are willing as well as much

428
00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:36,880
Speaker 3: as our capacity allows us to to work with whomever

429
00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:40,640
Speaker 3: is interested because we are so committed to helping our

430
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:44,480
Speaker 3: youth and helping our young creatives be successful and have

431
00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:48,320
Speaker 3: and establish sustainable creative careers.

432
00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:50,800
Speaker 1: Well, I'm gonna tell you that, doctor Lee, I'm a

433
00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:52,920
Speaker 1: fan of yours. Thank you for.

434
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:55,280
Speaker 2: Coming over the show, you know, and spreading that denied

435
00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:57,520
Speaker 2: divine nine love.

436
00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:04,600
Speaker 1: But like I told you earlier, I'm gonna make a man.

437
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:07,080
Speaker 1: So I've been good, I'd have been good. And now

438
00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:13,680
Speaker 1: come on, now, come on, now you ski we a can't.

439
00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:16,480
Speaker 2: We're gonna have a lot of thought in this life

440
00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:18,520
Speaker 2: AND's and this year is just the start of a

441
00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:21,480
Speaker 2: long term relationship. Anything I can bring to the table

442
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,560
Speaker 2: Money Making Conversations master Class. We're using the tool of

443
00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:28,160
Speaker 2: my voice and your interview of being able to promote

444
00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:30,480
Speaker 2: what you are doing in the community, because as we

445
00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:35,199
Speaker 2: go into this upcoming administration, their number one goal is

446
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:39,520
Speaker 2: to stop, as they say, government participation.

447
00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:40,919
Speaker 1: And community oriented events.

448
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:44,080
Speaker 2: And what we're talking about what she's what they're doing

449
00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:47,639
Speaker 2: over the Ant Siphast Family Fund Corporation is a community

450
00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:51,840
Speaker 2: oriented event. What we're saying public to everybody is that

451
00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:55,280
Speaker 2: if they're gonna stop helping us, that we need to

452
00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:59,119
Speaker 2: start helping ourselvesselves. And that is the number one takeaway

453
00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:02,159
Speaker 2: that you're getting this interview, and doctor Lee, thank you

454
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:04,480
Speaker 2: for taking the time to allow me to have fun

455
00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:09,520
Speaker 2: with you, but also are powerful information that you guys

456
00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:11,840
Speaker 2: are doing in the community. And I love the fact

457
00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:15,480
Speaker 2: that when you see when I grew up, rappers was

458
00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:16,080
Speaker 2: just rapping.

459
00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:18,920
Speaker 1: They're just in the industry. Now you see rappers as

460
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:22,080
Speaker 1: business people. You know clothing lines.

461
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:26,280
Speaker 2: You know you saw Snoop Dogg. He sponsored a bull

462
00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:29,639
Speaker 2: game this last year or this year. And then you

463
00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:32,479
Speaker 2: see some of the richest people, they are billionaires. So

464
00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:37,199
Speaker 2: now the conversation of these wanted to be an entertainer,

465
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:40,080
Speaker 2: Now you want to be a business person, Now you

466
00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:43,520
Speaker 2: want to own property. I feel with telling a better

467
00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:45,680
Speaker 2: story than when I was growing.

468
00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:47,000
Speaker 1: Up because it was just music.
