9
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:44,440
Speaker 1: well I won't see everybody else. But the majority of

10
00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:46,919
Speaker 1: people kind of looked at this whole COVID nineteen thing,

11
00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:49,560
Speaker 1: this quarantine as a negative thing. Oh man, we gotta

12
00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:54,279
Speaker 1: stay in the house whatever whatever for me. Honestly, when

13
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:56,440
Speaker 1: they stay stay in the house, I was like, you

14
00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:58,360
Speaker 1: gotta tell me twice because I don't get to stay

15
00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:00,520
Speaker 1: in the house. I don't don't. I'm earlier at all,

16
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:03,480
Speaker 1: what I mean. So I took it as an opportunity to,

17
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:05,839
Speaker 1: you know, to lock back in with my kids. Of course,

18
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:10,240
Speaker 1: as job as everybody knows, my wife get back to

19
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:12,800
Speaker 1: the stuff that that matters, you know. We tend to

20
00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:15,800
Speaker 1: let a lot of the stuff that don't matter matters

21
00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 1: so much in in regard to just the way that

22
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:20,640
Speaker 1: we the way do we live this thing. And I'm

23
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:23,520
Speaker 1: happy that I'm happy that this. I'm not happy that

24
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:26,720
Speaker 1: anybody lost their life, of course, you know, dutiful Code nineteen.

25
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:30,520
Speaker 1: But I'm happy that this set your ass down moment

26
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,679
Speaker 1: happened because it didn't need We definitely needed this moment.

27
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:37,119
Speaker 1: The earth needed this moment, right, I agree? I agree,

28
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:39,920
Speaker 1: did y'all? Some somebody told me that, uh, the olds

29
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:42,639
Speaker 1: On layer was healing itself because it was less people

30
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,759
Speaker 1: driving cars and whatnot. And yeah, there's there's a lot

31
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 1: less smug and everything and there, and even like natural wildlife.

32
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:51,640
Speaker 1: But I will say the problem here in New York

33
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 1: is these rats are everywhere, so that are like the

34
00:01:56,720 --> 00:02:03,160
Speaker 1: ones on the ground put both. But you know, because

35
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 1: a lot of the restaurants aren't open, so they're used

36
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:08,079
Speaker 1: to like drummage in through the garbage and because there's

37
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 1: not as much of that, so and you know, New

38
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:12,240
Speaker 1: York is already kind of dirty. So we go outside

39
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 1: and the rats are everywhere. Now, yeah, man, you know

40
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 1: what I want to asked, because I've been watching everything

41
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:22,560
Speaker 1: you've been doing, right, do you think that people give

42
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:26,520
Speaker 1: up like too quickly in relationships and especially in marriage?

43
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 1: So absolutely absolutely. Nowadays, you know a person will find

44
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:33,560
Speaker 1: any excuse like why are you why are you breathe

45
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:35,919
Speaker 1: so loud? You know what? You know what? We need space?

46
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,080
Speaker 1: This is this breathing you're doing. I can't take all

47
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 1: this breathing. They'll find any reason to to get out

48
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:46,920
Speaker 1: of relationship nowadays, because relationships are not easy. It's just

49
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:51,080
Speaker 1: what it is. It's not easy to constantly find that

50
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:54,680
Speaker 1: common ground with another person if that person is really

51
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:56,760
Speaker 1: being who they are. Like you, two different people with

52
00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:59,680
Speaker 1: two completely different outlooks on certain things. You're not gonna

53
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:03,359
Speaker 1: like other all the time. It's gonna get hard. Being faithful.

54
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 1: It's hard first time people. For some Okay, for some people, yea.

55
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,400
Speaker 1: Being faithful it's not an easy thing to do. It

56
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:16,200
Speaker 1: requires discipline that a lot of people either don't have

57
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:19,120
Speaker 1: or don't want to work towards having. That's just what

58
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,480
Speaker 1: kind of what it is right now, you know, being

59
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 1: quickly easy. I would push back and say that being

60
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:28,240
Speaker 1: faithful is easier than not just because I think that

61
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:31,399
Speaker 1: once you get older, like having multiple it's just gets

62
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 1: like complicated, it's a lot of work. It costs more

63
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:37,000
Speaker 1: money than just being like with one person and not

64
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,840
Speaker 1: having to worry about all those things. I think it's

65
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 1: all in a way that it's done. But I do

66
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 1: agree with you as as you age, you start you

67
00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 1: start realizing what's important versus what's microwaves, so to speak.

68
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:55,240
Speaker 1: You know what I mean, It's like it's like waiting.

69
00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:57,200
Speaker 1: It's like waiting on that home cooking meal even though

70
00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:58,480
Speaker 1: it's gonna take a little long and you know it's

71
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 1: gonna be good, so you way instead of going to

72
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:03,800
Speaker 1: McDonald's re quick and grabbing a burglar. You know what

73
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 1: I mean. It's just so nil. What do you feel

74
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 1: like where your issues? You and Crystal's issues when y'all

75
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 1: decided like, all right, we're gonna have to really call

76
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:18,000
Speaker 1: it quit whether your phone, you know what, the fault

77
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 1: lives on, default lives on both of us. I can genuinely,

78
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:22,839
Speaker 1: truly and honestly say the fault out and through both

79
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:26,240
Speaker 1: of us. I'm not gonna go too heavily into detail

80
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:29,240
Speaker 1: just because I'm not, but just I mean, the best

81
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 1: way to put it is when you are not being

82
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,160
Speaker 1: honest with yourself about things, and this and this goes

83
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 1: for both of us. It's going to be difficult to

84
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 1: get the get that genuine from anyone from from It's

85
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 1: not gonna be it's not gonna be a genuine uh

86
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 1: connection if you're not being honest with yourself, If you

87
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,000
Speaker 1: have issues that you need to deal with, you need

88
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 1: to deal with those issues. And if you don't deal

89
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:54,760
Speaker 1: with those issues, those issues will cause where between you

90
00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 1: and that person that you're trying to be with. And uh,

91
00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,359
Speaker 1: that's something that we both needed to learn. You know,

92
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:01,640
Speaker 1: we both had to do some soul search. We both

93
00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:04,720
Speaker 1: had to get into ourselves and go all right, let

94
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:06,120
Speaker 1: me put this mirror in front of me and figure

95
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,600
Speaker 1: out what's wrong with me before I turned it, and

96
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:14,040
Speaker 1: go what's wrong with you? Y'all had some y'all have

97
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:18,320
Speaker 1: some petty moments, you know during that to say there

98
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,839
Speaker 1: was some pettiness going on, I was like, I didn't know,

99
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:25,400
Speaker 1: never so petty. How was it? I was? It wasn't

100
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:27,240
Speaker 1: just you. I got both of you guys, though, you

101
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:30,680
Speaker 1: did have some petty moments, you know, And when when

102
00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:33,320
Speaker 1: drama is drama is it is what it is. I

103
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:37,240
Speaker 1: don't think either one of us had Uh. Okay, everybody

104
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:40,520
Speaker 1: took Pinkyring as a disrecord. It was not a disrecord.

105
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:43,240
Speaker 1: Listen to the lyrics of the song. I didn't say

106
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:46,560
Speaker 1: anything negative about her. I didn't diss her on that

107
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:50,280
Speaker 1: record was flattering, No, it was a flatter. It was

108
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:55,520
Speaker 1: a song about divorce, right, Yeah, this was turning the

109
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,680
Speaker 1: Ring and Spinky Ring. That was the disk because it's

110
00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:02,039
Speaker 1: like right in my heart, that was me saying. That

111
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:04,560
Speaker 1: was me saying, as opposed to sitting in the dark

112
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:06,880
Speaker 1: room crying my eyes out, I'm gonna keep it pushing,

113
00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:08,680
Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep it pimping. That's that was what I

114
00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:12,240
Speaker 1: was saying. But that's what that's what guys do. You know,

115
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 1: that's what guys be doing the breakup. I feel like

116
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:17,680
Speaker 1: guy on y'all breakup. No, they try to like act

117
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:20,400
Speaker 1: like they're okay, and you know, just brush it off

118
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:22,919
Speaker 1: and keep it moving. But then it comes back and

119
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 1: affects you later because you didn't do it, and then

120
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,599
Speaker 1: it hits you even harder and even harder. Very true,

121
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,520

00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:10,120
Speaker 1: that night, two records that night, and one of Woman's

155
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 1: is do You to Love Joining? So yeah, that's it's

156
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:15,080
Speaker 1: hard to get Jeremed into anything that's not music related

157
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:18,640
Speaker 1: and being in the studio related. But when it comes

158
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:24,880
Speaker 1: to music, because that dude, that dude is a musician,

159
00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:26,760
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I think I think that

160
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:30,600
Speaker 1: in the music industry, you have musicians, you have you know,

161
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:34,600
Speaker 1: celebrities like stars, you know, like the front person, and

162
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:36,679
Speaker 1: you have you have people that do it that do

163
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 1: it form from a musical standpoint, and that's the that's

164
00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:41,040
Speaker 1: the focal point, that's the important part. And I feel

165
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:42,960
Speaker 1: like that's kind of what Jeremiah is. Just like, you

166
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:45,440
Speaker 1: know what, and I it's not so much about what

167
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:47,160
Speaker 1: I look like or what I'm wearing right now, listen

168
00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:49,560
Speaker 1: to this joint. You know what I just did. It's back,

169
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:52,800
Speaker 1: you know, like that's that's the that's a different cloth. Man.

170
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:55,240
Speaker 1: Do you think that breaking up and getting back together

171
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 1: might make your love stronger? Just because during the time

172
00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:01,400
Speaker 1: of part you realize just how much you missed somebody

173
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:03,959
Speaker 1: or just the things that you need to change. And

174
00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:06,200
Speaker 1: sometimes I think people break up and then they go

175
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:07,880
Speaker 1: out there and they try to find something else and

176
00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:10,199
Speaker 1: it doesn't really work out, and then they realized what

177
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:12,120
Speaker 1: I had at home, that's the best thing I had.

178
00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:17,160
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, I really couldn't said about myself. Yeah it was.

179
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:19,319
Speaker 1: You know what. It's like I said earlier. We we

180
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:24,560
Speaker 1: tend to let the outside noise get real out, you know,

181
00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:29,000
Speaker 1: being opinions from friends, opinions of other people you know,

182
00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 1: you get know I g and get to reading comments

183
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,440
Speaker 1: and opinions from people you don't even know. You tend

184
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 1: to let all this stuff become really really important to

185
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 1: you for some reason, and it becomes definite to where

186
00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:42,880
Speaker 1: you can't hear the person that's sitting right next to you,

187
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:44,800
Speaker 1: that's been right next to you when he was down,

188
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:46,720
Speaker 1: that's been right next to you when he was ugly,

189
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:49,040
Speaker 1: it's been right next to you when he was broke.

190
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:51,760
Speaker 1: You know, you can't hear that. You can't hear that

191
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,640
Speaker 1: person because all you hear is the loudness. So what's

192
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 1: happening for worth? You know? So again, that's why when

193
00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:00,840
Speaker 1: I when we were forced to sit down, you know,

194
00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,800
Speaker 1: we got there. We got the opportunity to really look

195
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,920
Speaker 1: at what's important. And what's important is the fact that

196
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:09,080
Speaker 1: I would die for you, you would die for me.

197
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:12,400
Speaker 1: That's the love that we share. Everything else we're supposed

198
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,640
Speaker 1: to be able to work through. Everything else we supposed

199
00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:16,359
Speaker 1: be able to work through on top of that foundation,

200
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 1: and and here we are. I felt like the blog

201
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:22,960
Speaker 1: quickly tried to like pin y'all against each other and

202
00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:26,040
Speaker 1: um one of the things that happened was that Crystal

203
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:27,960
Speaker 1: was seeing out at a party and she was with

204
00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:31,959
Speaker 1: a guy from Black Ank Ryan. I So, how did

205
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,559
Speaker 1: that make you feel? When y'all are in a situation

206
00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:37,080
Speaker 1: where y'all were kind of not talking, then you see

207
00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 1: something like that is that something where you call her

208
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:43,760
Speaker 1: immediately or did it kind of just confirmed to you

209
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:46,000
Speaker 1: that you're like, damn, this is really over, Like how

210
00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:50,720
Speaker 1: did that work out? Um? I know Crystal. I know

211
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,440
Speaker 1: Crystal better than a lot of people, and I know one.

212
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:56,200
Speaker 1: I knew one hundred percent for a fact that it

213
00:10:56,280 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 1: wasn't what everybody thought. It was, like, she's not that person.

214
00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:02,960
Speaker 1: But also she also knew that was a good picture

215
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,280
Speaker 1: to make you mad. Yeah, that's what I was probably

216
00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:09,680
Speaker 1: at least that's a good Hey, you guys, y'all know

217
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:14,000
Speaker 1: that's a good strategy. You always. I don't. I don't.

218
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:15,960
Speaker 1: I don't doubt it. I don't doubt it. But I

219
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:18,880
Speaker 1: knew that it wasn't that, you know, because again, that's

220
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,439
Speaker 1: not who that's not who she is. That's how and

221
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:25,160
Speaker 1: I saw it, and I'm like, okay, um wow, that

222
00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:30,120
Speaker 1: is that is definitely petty. But I didn't. I wasn't.

223
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:31,880
Speaker 1: I couldn't. I couldn't let it. I couldn't let it

224
00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:34,720
Speaker 1: phase me. I didn't let it face. I had to again,

225
00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:36,319
Speaker 1: I had to keep a print and I had to

226
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:39,480
Speaker 1: keep a pushing especially because at this point I'm surrounded

227
00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:42,200
Speaker 1: by all of you know, my my crew and everybody,

228
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:44,160
Speaker 1: and you know a lot of my friends like, yeah,

229
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:49,439
Speaker 1: we're single again. Why do guys very much keep that Yeah,

230
00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:51,480
Speaker 1: well I'm all right, you know I'm saying. And then

231
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 1: I give by myself. Yeah you know what they saying. Right,

232
00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:56,679
Speaker 1: guys are the ones to celebrate the break up. But

233
00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:59,800
Speaker 1: why did they do that? It's so annoying, Like then

234
00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:03,440
Speaker 1: the friends are so happy, like, yes, you're a single again,

235
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:08,240
Speaker 1: while the girlfriends are like, oh no, girl, you're gonna

236
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 1: be okay, we got you back girl. Exactly what happens,

237
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,280
Speaker 1: especially if the majority of your friends are single too,

238
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 1: like they want you to bring the They also don't

239
00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:23,520
Speaker 1: care if they're single or not. Majority of them, your

240
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:29,720
Speaker 1: married friends are like, yeah, we're single again, and I

00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:41,200
Speaker 1: and you had a baby and everything. So that's joke.

245
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:45,719
Speaker 1: Did anybody embarrass theirselves with you, like as far as

00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:47,880
Speaker 1: maybe jump out the window and black You know, I've

Speaker 1: and then my way say, I will say that my

251
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:04,760
Speaker 1: d ms were more active than than they had been

252
00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:09,880
Speaker 1: in along once knowledge of the divorce hit. But even

253
00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:12,360
Speaker 1: more so than people jumping out the window, it was

254
00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:14,320
Speaker 1: a lot of people that was that that started telling

255
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:19,680
Speaker 1: me about myself because I and in the relationship, Um,

256
00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:23,240
Speaker 1: I allowed myself to change behind my marriage, like like

257
00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:25,880
Speaker 1: I became a different person to to my friends and

258
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:27,640
Speaker 1: became a different person to the people that I worked

259
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:31,240
Speaker 1: with behind my marriage. And and you know that was

260
00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:33,080
Speaker 1: part that was one part of that was one part

261
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 1: of what we had to work on. That I got

262
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:36,800
Speaker 1: into a place where I felt like I couldn't be

263
00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:39,200
Speaker 1: me around her, you know what I mean. I don't

264
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:40,920
Speaker 1: know how we got there. I don't know what that was,

265
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:44,000
Speaker 1: but I got into that place, and uh and and

266
00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:46,720
Speaker 1: it became evident, you know, whenever we were hanging around

267
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:48,920
Speaker 1: with my friends, you know, when my friends aren't there

268
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:50,320
Speaker 1: on one way, then when she shows up, I would

269
00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:53,680
Speaker 1: come another way. And it's like I didn't even realize it.

270
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,200
Speaker 1: So like, you know, when I when I went to

271
00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:58,240
Speaker 1: my friends, like hey, I think I'm getting a divorce.

272
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,439
Speaker 1: It became a you know what, brother, I'm gonna say nothing.

273
00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:06,319
Speaker 1: You ain't you what? You ain't you in this marriage?

274
00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:09,080
Speaker 1: Like something's wrong because you're not you. I don't know what,

275
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 1: but you you're not you in this marriage. And I

276
00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:14,080
Speaker 1: don't know if this is what needs to happen or whatever,

277
00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:16,880
Speaker 1: But now that you're in this place, now I can

278
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:19,480
Speaker 1: tell you you ain't you at for whatever reason, you're

279
00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:21,880
Speaker 1: not you in this marriage? You know so, I mean

280
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 1: I paid attention to that. I paid attention to, you know,

281
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:27,680
Speaker 1: just what I would feel when she would come around,

282
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:29,760
Speaker 1: and I and I realized what it was and needed

283
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:32,480
Speaker 1: to happen. What what conversation we needed to have. We

284
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:35,880
Speaker 1: had that conversation. We're in a great space now, you know.

285
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 1: And and my and my friends. The cool thing is

286
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:39,400
Speaker 1: that my friends see it's who they see now. They

287
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 1: can see that, you know, I don't feel like I

288
00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:44,720
Speaker 1: have to become another person when she's around. I can

289
00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:47,160
Speaker 1: be who I am, you know, around I can be

290
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:51,240
Speaker 1: me around everybody there. Well, were these different people like

291
00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:55,960
Speaker 1: how do you what's different? Like what's different when? Yeah,

292
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:57,680
Speaker 1: like what it's different when you're around your friends that

293
00:14:57,720 --> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 1: you feel like you had you had to back then

294
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:03,120
Speaker 1: change like what is it that was different when she

295
00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:06,040
Speaker 1: was just differently these different elements of my personality, you

296
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:09,040
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. Like some uh some might some

297
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 1: a person might say that I'm a bit flirtatious. Person

298
00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:17,080
Speaker 1: might say that, you know what I mean, And uh,

299
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:20,359
Speaker 1: I don't mean it to come to come across flirtatious.

300
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:23,680
Speaker 1: I'm just a very friendly person. And there was a

301
00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:27,560
Speaker 1: point in our relationship where uh that became that became

302
00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:30,280
Speaker 1: an issue, the point of relationship with that became an issue.

303
00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:32,160
Speaker 1: I could see that point where I felt like, all right,

304
00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:38,720
Speaker 1: all right, uh, wife, he's around, let me to try

305
00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:43,200
Speaker 1: to avoid us getting into a potential argument later and

306
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:44,840
Speaker 1: and that, you know, and that maybe that got me

307
00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:47,040
Speaker 1: the feeling like, Okay, if I can't be who I

308
00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:51,120
Speaker 1: am with you, then maybe we shouldn't be together because

309
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:53,600
Speaker 1: who I am is who I am is person that

310
00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:57,720
Speaker 1: I am. I'm not being because because you're around and

311
00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:58,960
Speaker 1: I don't I don't think that, I don't think that

312
00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:01,280
Speaker 1: I should have to be. But then she also said,

313
00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:03,600
Speaker 1: all right, well, I don't mind you being you, but

314
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:07,160
Speaker 1: you you definitely know the line between being you know

315
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:13,120
Speaker 1: the right. So so it really became again us going

316
00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:15,760
Speaker 1: all right, what is it that's wrong with me? As

317
00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:17,880
Speaker 1: opposed what is it that's wrong with you. It's kind

318
00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:20,040
Speaker 1: of like, right, I didn't know the line between flirting

319
00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:22,280
Speaker 1: and and being and being funny. I know thee I

320
00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:25,520
Speaker 1: know when it's all right, But that's that's a bit toofore.

321
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:29,000
Speaker 1: I know, I know, we all know. We get we

322
00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:30,760
Speaker 1: see what we can get away with. That's just kind

323
00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:33,360
Speaker 1: of that's just what people tend to do in relationships

324
00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:35,960
Speaker 1: with you don't ever want to do something like if

325
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:38,040
Speaker 1: you can't do it with your wife there and you

326
00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:40,040
Speaker 1: would be uncomfortable, then you shouldn't be doing it. But

327
00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:43,920
Speaker 1: she's not. That's always a good thing to see what's

328
00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:46,440
Speaker 1: appropriate and what's not, Like if I'm comfortable and she's

329
00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:49,080
Speaker 1: here and I and I said this or acted this way,

330
00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:51,240
Speaker 1: and then when she's not here, because I think you

331
00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:53,120
Speaker 1: can really measure a person by how they act when

332
00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:56,200
Speaker 1: you're not around. Right, That's but I feel like, still

333
00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:58,760
Speaker 1: on on the other on the flip side of it,

334
00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 1: it's kind of like you can't make someone feel so

335
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:06,240
Speaker 1: suffocating with being the souths if that's his personality, Yes,

336
00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:08,560
Speaker 1: like you said, there's a line that needs to be drawn.

337
00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:10,440
Speaker 1: But that's why I feel like you both have to

338
00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:12,920
Speaker 1: had to work on each other because it's kind of like,

339
00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:16,080
Speaker 1: what is my insecurity that I feel like I can't

340
00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:18,359
Speaker 1: just let him flirt with people and just in a

341
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:21,280
Speaker 1: friendly way. Maybe you might take it too far after

342
00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:23,520
Speaker 1: a while because you take everything. You know what I

343
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:25,240
Speaker 1: mean like, Okay, he's gonna go too far. I know

344
00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:27,639
Speaker 1: he's gonna go too far. So I get what you're saying.

345
00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:31,359
Speaker 1: We're both sides hold out ladies. Now, y'are not letting

346
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:34,440
Speaker 1: your man de flirtations? I know, but you also don't

347
00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:36,920
Speaker 1: want some because I did have a similar problem where

348
00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:40,760
Speaker 1: I would change my personality around the person that I've

349
00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:44,159
Speaker 1: been told that before. Did I've changed my personality around,

350
00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:47,320
Speaker 1: But it's because they take that things that you would do.

351
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:52,879
Speaker 1: So now you feel like, damn everything, I'm doing it.

352
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:54,800
Speaker 1: But then the conversation you're supposed to go, all right,

353
00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:57,640
Speaker 1: if this is what it is, okay, so you tell me,

354
00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:00,520
Speaker 1: you tell me what's the line for you? I know

355
00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:01,760
Speaker 1: what the line. I know what the line is. I

356
00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:03,200
Speaker 1: know what I feel like the line is. You tell

357
00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:05,199
Speaker 1: me what the line is to you and we and

358
00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:09,000
Speaker 1: we compromise. We find a way to where both parties

359
00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:11,840
Speaker 1: can be happy with the outcome. Like, that's what compromises

360
00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:14,600
Speaker 1: supposed to be. All right, it's not completely you and

361
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:17,239
Speaker 1: it's not completely mean. We've both been that we can

362
00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 1: meet in the middle, and let's talk about to do.

363
00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:25,560
Speaker 1: Let's talk about something antients were discussing it right now. Okay,

364
00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:29,680
Speaker 1: so is this taking it too far? Right? If somebody

365
00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:31,840
Speaker 1: says a girl that your friends sits on your lap

366
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:36,240
Speaker 1: but it's not in a sexual way, but maybe just

367
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:39,320
Speaker 1: not enough room in the car, Like, what's the reason

368
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:44,800
Speaker 1: why this happened? I don't know. Actually, just feels comfortable

369
00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:46,360
Speaker 1: enough to do that, you know how some people are

370
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:53,320
Speaker 1: just super friendly acting. Um, yeah, that's just I can't

371
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:58,199
Speaker 1: let Yeah I'm not that's not that's crossing. Okay, what okay?

372
00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:01,199
Speaker 1: What about just coming and hug and a kiss on

373
00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:05,080
Speaker 1: the cheek? Is that okay? Um? I mean yeah, yeah,

374
00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:08,040
Speaker 1: it depends on it depends on the situation. Yeah, that's fine,

375
00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:11,399
Speaker 1: that's fine. Now again okay, so so the kiss on

376
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:15,359
Speaker 1: the cheek, there's a friendly kiss on the cheek, and

377
00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:17,200
Speaker 1: then there's a kiss on the cheek that clearly needs

378
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:19,200
Speaker 1: more than a kiss on the cheek. It's like half

379
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:22,719
Speaker 1: on the mouth, half on the cheek again, you know,

380
00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:25,439
Speaker 1: you know, you know the lines. Now what you do

381
00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:27,400
Speaker 1: is how you do it? They do that, and then

382
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:29,040
Speaker 1: there's and then there's a not so filing way to

383
00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:31,879
Speaker 1: do that. Okay, Now what if you're in the club

384
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:33,960
Speaker 1: and the girl is next to you in the club

385
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:36,320
Speaker 1: and she leans her head on your shoulder for a second?

386
00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:45,000
Speaker 1: Is that too much? Why was you Angela? That is

387
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:50,240
Speaker 1: it like some sleepy like just like I'm so tired

388
00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:52,439
Speaker 1: of being in the club, you know, and then next thing,

389
00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:57,240
Speaker 1: you know, there's a picture everywhere. You know, if you

390
00:19:57,280 --> 00:20:00,280
Speaker 1: can't even explain that, Yeah, I think I think one

391
00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:02,760
Speaker 1: part of it is is again like it's it's very

392
00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:04,119
Speaker 1: good the thing that you said. You know, if you

393
00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:06,560
Speaker 1: wouldn't be comfortable doing it with your significant other there,

394
00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:08,639
Speaker 1: you probably should do it. Yeah, you don't want to

395
00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:14,040
Speaker 1: put yourself in position to to to even to even

396
00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:17,080
Speaker 1: create confusion like so, well I would so I wouldn't

397
00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:18,800
Speaker 1: have no girls sitting next to me and then put

398
00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:20,840
Speaker 1: her head on my shoulders where somebody can stop to

399
00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:23,040
Speaker 1: get you to where Now we have confusions about what

400
00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:27,600
Speaker 1: happens and this this thing come on a little bit girl,

401
00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:32,200
Speaker 1: and we need we need something more realistic examples. Okay,

402
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:34,480
Speaker 1: what if there's something what if you can't explain this

403
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,200
Speaker 1: is something that can't be explained, then clearly it's something

404
00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:39,240
Speaker 1: that shouldn't be done. Like if there's no explanation for

405
00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:42,480
Speaker 1: why this is feasible, then clearly, Like I got one,

406
00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:45,719
Speaker 1: a female artist texts you at three in the morning,

407
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:53,320
Speaker 1: a female artist, It doesn't matter what the text she's texting,

408
00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:55,800
Speaker 1: just the studio when she was texting to say I

409
00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:58,199
Speaker 1: meet home. What if she texts you, let's get this

410
00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:10,040
Speaker 1: piky ring me mixed going almost annoy here? Well okay, um,

411
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:13,480
Speaker 1: all right in reference to that, because I am an artist,

412
00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:16,120
Speaker 1: because I am a songwriter, because I know what production

413
00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:18,439
Speaker 1: is and I know what studio work is. Uh. An

414
00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:20,840
Speaker 1: artist texts you at three a m is not that uncommon,

415
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:23,440
Speaker 1: you know, because we keep laid hours. That's so that's nothing.

416
00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:27,720
Speaker 1: I'm common. Now. What that text message says is what's important.

417
00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:31,600
Speaker 1: That's where that's where we start the line. Instagram model

418
00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:33,199
Speaker 1: and she's like, you know, I want to be in

419
00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:38,760
Speaker 1: your video and it's three in the morning. No no, no, no, no, no.

420
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:44,399
Speaker 1: I mean, if that's the case, it's business. There was

421
00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:54,639
Speaker 1: no none casting called the casting cursy. Hey baby, oh no,

422
00:21:54,760 --> 00:22:00,280
Speaker 1: just just talked about she be in video. Let to say,

423
00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:02,120
Speaker 1: one of your single friends brings a group of girls

424
00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:04,280
Speaker 1: around and they come by the studio. You want to

425
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,239
Speaker 1: play some music, see how they feel about it, and

426
00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:07,600
Speaker 1: one of them is like, oh my god, I love

427
00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:09,159
Speaker 1: this song, and she kind of works on you a

428
00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:13,040
Speaker 1: little uh no no, no, no no, no again. That goes

429
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:16,320
Speaker 1: back to the whole situation. It's like, too close to

430
00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:19,679
Speaker 1: the private area. Yea, on my left. We don't need

431
00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:28,280
Speaker 1: to know where in this in this waste right over there.

432
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:32,600
Speaker 1: I'm good, I'm good working on the phone. Yall had

433
00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:38,320
Speaker 1: the preasure off, So all right, and ladies like for

434
00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:40,439
Speaker 1: y'all because it's just interesting to me that y'all say that,

435
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:42,800
Speaker 1: because I know both Gigi and Lauri y'all, y'all don't

436
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 1: play that flirting thing when it comes to do Yeah,

437
00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:50,440
Speaker 1: but I think sometimes people take being friendly as flirting,

438
00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:53,760
Speaker 1: and I think sometimes we do get a little bit jealous.

439
00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:56,720
Speaker 1: Like That's why I'm saying that, because I didn't know

440
00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:59,760
Speaker 1: how it feels it's like I've been that person, and

441
00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:01,840
Speaker 1: I've also then the person to be like, I don't

442
00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:03,800
Speaker 1: like that, you know what I mean. And it doesn't

443
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:07,720
Speaker 1: feel good when somebody doesn't feel comfortable with your personality

444
00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:10,119
Speaker 1: and you don't feel like you're doing anything wrong. But

445
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 1: like you said, sometimes you just gotta sit down and

446
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:14,200
Speaker 1: be like, how would I felt that this is being

447
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:17,840
Speaker 1: done to me? And anytimes that they drink like that? Yeah,

448
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:20,840
Speaker 1: Or sometimes you just gotta sit down with that person

449
00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:23,639
Speaker 1: and go all right, let's discuss the line. Let's just

450
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:26,160
Speaker 1: us discussed the down to you so that so after

451
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:29,040
Speaker 1: this discussion there's never any there's no more confusion ever

452
00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:31,800
Speaker 1: again because you sat down. All right, there's what I

453
00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:34,399
Speaker 1: don't like. That's what I don't like. There's a susceptable,

454
00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:37,960
Speaker 1: here's it's not acceptable. Cool, all right, there's what I

455
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:40,280
Speaker 1: don't like. Here's what I here, and then we find

456
00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:43,480
Speaker 1: a compromise, and then we and then we run with that. Now,

457
00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:46,280
Speaker 1: after that happens, if the same thing is still happening,

458
00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:49,120
Speaker 1: all right, then clearly that first time get through, y'all

459
00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:51,720
Speaker 1: need to have another damn conversation, perhaps one a bit

460
00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:54,280
Speaker 1: more forceful than the last room. You know, like, hey, listen,

461
00:23:55,000 --> 00:24:00,800
Speaker 1: um he talked about because he was like, you know,

462
00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:04,199
Speaker 1: the key to success and happiness. So I wonder are

463
00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:07,359
Speaker 1: y'all like work? Are you working on yourselves? Or's just

464
00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:10,600
Speaker 1: like a therapy situation? Because I know some people feel like,

465
00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:14,480
Speaker 1: oh well I could just work internally internally on myself,

466
00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:17,439
Speaker 1: but some people need a little help. So did y'all

467
00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:20,520
Speaker 1: go that route right now? We all need a little help? Um?

468
00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:24,760
Speaker 1: We we tried. We tried therapy once before, and what

469
00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:28,360
Speaker 1: we realize is that until we could go to therapy together,

470
00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:30,719
Speaker 1: we needed to go to therapy separately, you know what

471
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:33,080
Speaker 1: I mean. Because it's like like I got things that

472
00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:35,200
Speaker 1: I gotta work through. You've got things that you gotta

473
00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:38,359
Speaker 1: work through, and us trying to do it together is

474
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:43,800
Speaker 1: you know, it's distracting, you know what I mean. So

475
00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:46,560
Speaker 1: so so that hadn't happened before we could even get

476
00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:49,280
Speaker 1: to a place where it's like because for example, if

477
00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:51,800
Speaker 1: I'm apologizing to you sincerely but you don't know how

478
00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:56,280
Speaker 1: to forgive, it doesn't matter that if he doesn't matter

479
00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:58,920
Speaker 1: how sincerely sorry I am. If you don't know how

480
00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:00,560
Speaker 1: to forgive me, if you don't on how to let

481
00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:05,080
Speaker 1: go of whatever it was I got person. That's as

482
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:07,399
Speaker 1: personal work like, we can't we can't do that. We

483
00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:09,840
Speaker 1: can't work that out together. That's something that you gotta

484
00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:13,240
Speaker 1: You gotta figure out what it is that is making

485
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:15,080
Speaker 1: is keeping you in that place where you hold on

486
00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:18,040
Speaker 1: this stuff. It could be could be past trauma, could

487
00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:21,200
Speaker 1: be whatever. But all I know is that I can't

488
00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:23,080
Speaker 1: help you through that, and you can't help me through

489
00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:25,080
Speaker 1: what I gotta do. It has to be. It has

490
00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:27,120
Speaker 1: to be a conscious decision, you know what I mean?

491
00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:30,199
Speaker 1: If you could be critical of yourself, then are you

492
00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:34,800
Speaker 1: a jealous person? No, No, I'm almost I'm almost not

493
00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:39,920
Speaker 1: jealous enough. Say. What I can honestly say is a

494
00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:42,120
Speaker 1: defense mechanism because there was a point in time where

495
00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:45,520
Speaker 1: I was extremely jealous and and and why I wind

496
00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:49,119
Speaker 1: up getting hurt immensely, you know, to where I told myself,

497
00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:51,199
Speaker 1: you know what, You can't get hurt if you just

498
00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:57,119
Speaker 1: don't allow yourself to care as much. Had not healthy,

499
00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:59,879
Speaker 1: which is not healthy. You can't do that to you,

500
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,640
Speaker 1: so do now. At the same time, you can't put

501
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:04,760
Speaker 1: your happiness in another person, You definitely can't do that.

502
00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,399
Speaker 1: But you can't. You can't be this this numb thing

503
00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:13,360
Speaker 1: just walking around either. You have to allow feelings. Sure,

504
00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:15,920
Speaker 1: um so no, No, not a jealous person at all.

505
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:19,680
Speaker 1: Now what about your ego? Are you like driven by

506
00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:27,080
Speaker 1: your ego in any way? Really? No? Um, I actually

507
00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:29,959
Speaker 1: kind of pride myself for my absence of yougo, you

508
00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:32,480
Speaker 1: know what I mean. I'm not I'm not the person

509
00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:34,800
Speaker 1: that needs to get all the attention in the room.

510
00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:37,800
Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm not to Hey, everybody, look over here, guys,

511
00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:40,480
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like like Angela, like you

00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:45,200
Speaker 1: you like you see me in social setting, I'm somewhe yeah,

513
00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:47,200
Speaker 1: like I'm I'm chilling. So no, and I was coming

514
00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:51,000
Speaker 1: to that. M all right, Now, let's talk about the

515
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:52,479
Speaker 1: new album because I know you've been working on new

516
00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:54,639
Speaker 1: music and I'm sure this kind a lot to be

517
00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:58,480
Speaker 1: inspired by. So we heard this thing, so what else

518
00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:01,680
Speaker 1: can we expact? I'm still working on the album right now.

519
00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:04,200
Speaker 1: I have not finished completely. I'm like three fourths of

520
00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:07,439
Speaker 1: the way done. I figured too three more records and

521
00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:11,479
Speaker 1: I'll be finished. Um. All of my music, pretty much

522
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:14,800
Speaker 1: my entire career, my music is always mirrored either my

523
00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:17,639
Speaker 1: personal life or the life of people around me. You

524
00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:21,119
Speaker 1: know what I mean, this album is no exception. I

525
00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:23,080
Speaker 1: mean a lot of things have happened in my personal

526
00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:25,399
Speaker 1: life over the last year and a half. You know,

527
00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:26,960
Speaker 1: a lot of things happening in the world over the

528
00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:29,080
Speaker 1: last year and a half. So a lot of stuff

529
00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:31,440
Speaker 1: to talk about from a lot of different from a

530
00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:33,879
Speaker 1: lot of different standpoints. There's a lot of there's layers

531
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:37,159
Speaker 1: to this album because it's like there's some vibes that

532
00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:39,480
Speaker 1: you've heard me on before, and then there's some vibes

533
00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:42,560
Speaker 1: that you know are gonna be somewhat new, Like oh, okay,

534
00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:44,840
Speaker 1: I didn't even realize that was neo like that. That's

535
00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:47,400
Speaker 1: what I was kind of searching for some of these records.

536
00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:50,800
Speaker 1: So I mean you mean like genre wise or like

537
00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:55,080
Speaker 1: sound wise wise, genre wise, round wise, all the way

538
00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:56,920
Speaker 1: across the board. Like, I just did a lot of

539
00:27:56,960 --> 00:27:59,480
Speaker 1: a lot of certain on this album because I don't

540
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:02,600
Speaker 1: I'll be completely hunted with y'all. I was very much

541
00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:05,879
Speaker 1: in my head at the beginning of creating this album.

542
00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:07,640
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, like like, just let's keep

543
00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:09,840
Speaker 1: it already funky. I'm forty years old, you know what

544
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:12,000
Speaker 1: I'm saying. Like this is my what I think this

545
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:15,520
Speaker 1: would be my eighth ninth album. Yeah, you know, I've

546
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:23,280
Speaker 1: been here roughly twenty years. I started like I'm right,

547
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:27,000
Speaker 1: a lot of lesson and thankful about. But at the

548
00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:29,680
Speaker 1: same time, it's like you know, you see, you see

549
00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:33,040
Speaker 1: it's a hand racing coming up. The sound has changed,

550
00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:36,360
Speaker 1: the look has changed, like what, like where do I fit?

551
00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:38,000
Speaker 1: And what's happening right now? You know what I'm And

552
00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:42,640
Speaker 1: I allowed those kind of thoughts to creep in, and um,

553
00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:46,560
Speaker 1: what it took was me just really again blocking out

554
00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:49,640
Speaker 1: the world and getting back to the reason that I

555
00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:51,560
Speaker 1: do music in the first place. I never I never

556
00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:53,680
Speaker 1: got into music because I want to be famous. I

557
00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:55,360
Speaker 1: didn't get in music because I wanted to be rich.

558
00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:58,800
Speaker 1: I got into music because somebody told me that I

559
00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:01,160
Speaker 1: could actually get paid to do some ship that I

560
00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:05,960
Speaker 1: was just gonna do anyway. But I can. I can

561
00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:08,760
Speaker 1: defend for my family and myself with with some ship

562
00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:10,959
Speaker 1: that I was just gonna do. Oh turn me up.

563
00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:14,320
Speaker 1: And when you look at it from that place, you

564
00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:17,080
Speaker 1: just make music for the love of making music. You

565
00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:20,640
Speaker 1: don't go it's just a hit, it's rhythmic. Gonna pick

566
00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:23,200
Speaker 1: this up you know all of these things that that

567
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:26,240
Speaker 1: that stand in the way of the creative processes to

568
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:28,760
Speaker 1: let them, you know, you can't, you can't think like that.

569
00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:30,240
Speaker 1: At least for me, I need. I need to be

570
00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:33,080
Speaker 1: able to go in and just go where my creative

571
00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:35,040
Speaker 1: vibe takes me and not worry about where it's going

572
00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:38,280
Speaker 1: to like right, and that once once I finally got

573
00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:41,520
Speaker 1: to that place, it allowed me the confidence to start

574
00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:43,360
Speaker 1: working with other writers. For a long time, I wouldn't

575
00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:45,400
Speaker 1: work with other writers. I just never felt like nobody's

576
00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:48,760
Speaker 1: gonna give me me better me better than me. But

577
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:51,960
Speaker 1: when I said the confidence to work with other writers,

578
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:55,400
Speaker 1: the confidence to say, Okay, I know what I can do,

579
00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:58,520
Speaker 1: I know how I do things. But to to not

580
00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:01,400
Speaker 1: take advantage to the fact that there are other points

581
00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:04,959
Speaker 1: of view is to almost it's almost blind yourself, like

582
00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:09,120
Speaker 1: it's more than one way to do every everything, you know,

583
00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:12,200
Speaker 1: So why would I not take advantage of somebody else's

584
00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:14,280
Speaker 1: point of view on the same thing, or somebody or

585
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:16,040
Speaker 1: you know, somebody else's point of view on the beat

586
00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:17,840
Speaker 1: or maybe this word is apposed to that word, you know,

587
00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 1: the lingo that changed up a little bit. You know

588
00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:21,440
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, and I'm not keeping up on purpose,

589
00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:26,880
Speaker 1: so too it makes sense to pull on these little

590
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:28,920
Speaker 1: young cats in and go all right, here's how I

591
00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:31,600
Speaker 1: say it, and then and then how y'all say it. Okay,

592
00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:34,160
Speaker 1: let's figure out how to make these two make sense, right.

593
00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:38,040
Speaker 1: I really like to um, you really help people see

594
00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:40,440
Speaker 1: a lot of John Austin's work too, like with them

595
00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:43,719
Speaker 1: versus thing for people to realize damn, he got all

596
00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:46,440
Speaker 1: them hits. And I feel like that's what's been really

597
00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:48,960
Speaker 1: great about that, and I think yours in particular really

598
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:50,640
Speaker 1: did that. Yeah, man, that was a lot. That was

599
00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:51,720
Speaker 1: a lot of fun. That was a lot of fun.

600
00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:56,479
Speaker 1: We saw the Dream and Sean Garrett's uh situation, and

601
00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:59,440
Speaker 1: how I kind of kind of went left a little bit. Yeah,

602
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:01,360
Speaker 1: I got to dream shout out to Sean Garrett. I'm

603
00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:03,720
Speaker 1: not talking. I gotta love y'all. You know they got

604
00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:05,959
Speaker 1: for you? Are you always end up in some drama?

605
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:09,720
Speaker 1: I telled me. I tell me I wanted him and

606
00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:11,920
Speaker 1: the Dream to go against each other. To me, that

607
00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:17,000
Speaker 1: had yeah, but but there there's was set up, you know,

608
00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:20,240
Speaker 1: and and it didn't exactly. Let's three can go a

609
00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:24,320
Speaker 1: where you needed to go all right. So that's so

610
00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:26,520
Speaker 1: John pretty much called me the next night like, yo,

611
00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:30,360
Speaker 1: we should go next. Alright, cool, but let's let's set

612
00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:32,520
Speaker 1: some ground rules, you know, because something. Let's let's figure

613
00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:34,400
Speaker 1: out what I didn't go right with that and try

614
00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:36,200
Speaker 1: to and try to, you know, try to rectify it.

615
00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:38,120
Speaker 1: So we said, all right on the twenty songs a

616
00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:42,280
Speaker 1: piece a minute, thirty press songs, right, bo bo bo,

617
00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:45,360
Speaker 1: keep a claim, keep a classy, alright, cool, caught up Swiss,

618
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:47,120
Speaker 1: caught up Tim. That was like what it was all for.

619
00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:50,440
Speaker 1: It got in and it was a class It was

620
00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:52,800
Speaker 1: a classy. It was. It was a gentleman's duel. It

621
00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:56,440
Speaker 1: was what it was. They even had his little glass

622
00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:59,840
Speaker 1: of wine. I'm like, damn, bro was doing it like that.

623
00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:06,880
Speaker 1: I don't know who. That's not right, That's all right,

624
00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:10,920
Speaker 1: you gotta be you now, John, John Legend and Alicia

625
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:15,680
Speaker 1: Keys are coming up looking forward to this. If you

626
00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:18,400
Speaker 1: couldn't get people advice on these versus battles as fire

627
00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:21,200
Speaker 1: as like orders to play songs in and you know,

628
00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:23,440
Speaker 1: because I think it's hard to tell. Sometimes I feel

629
00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:25,640
Speaker 1: like people start off like not really doing the hits,

630
00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:28,200
Speaker 1: and then they like, what are some what some advice

631
00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:30,400
Speaker 1: you could get from having done it to make sure

632
00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:33,760
Speaker 1: that you really like and did you have everything planned out,

633
00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:35,719
Speaker 1: knowing what song you were gonna go against where you're

634
00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:39,160
Speaker 1: more spontaneous, like oh he's playing that, let me play that? Yeah,

635
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 1: now we um. I definitely did my research. I knew

636
00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:45,840
Speaker 1: what I knew to a degree what he had coming

637
00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:49,360
Speaker 1: before before it came, and I set up counter songs

638
00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:50,880
Speaker 1: like all right, if you played this, I'm gonna play this,

639
00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:56,560
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? And then plus was like

640
00:32:56,640 --> 00:33:04,040
Speaker 1: kind of my my cornerment here. No, that was had

641
00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:07,600
Speaker 1: everybody gotta have that right, Remember Raley had the whole

642
00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:15,280
Speaker 1: hype man situation and the atmosphere. But yeah, I mean

643
00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:18,360
Speaker 1: it was so ours was, you know, before the thing

644
00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:20,040
Speaker 1: just really really took off. So I think we had

645
00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:24,000
Speaker 1: like eight two hundred thousand people uh tune in for ours,

646
00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:26,640
Speaker 1: and I just personally thought that it was a dope

647
00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:29,560
Speaker 1: moment for R and B. You know, nowadays hip hop

648
00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:31,479
Speaker 1: gets a bigger spotlight, that's just kind of what it is.

649
00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:34,760
Speaker 1: And but for that many people to tune in for

650
00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:36,720
Speaker 1: something that was like strictly R and B because I

651
00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:38,640
Speaker 1: didn't even I didn't play none of my pop records.

652
00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:41,240
Speaker 1: Like we stuck. We kept it strictly like you know,

653
00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:48,440
Speaker 1: Beyonce and Tony Braxton and Elia Kerry, Yeah get it

654
00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:50,680
Speaker 1: in the R and B space, and people stuck around

655
00:33:50,720 --> 00:33:52,520
Speaker 1: for the whole time for R and B. So I

656
00:33:52,560 --> 00:33:55,840
Speaker 1: was like, this is this goes beyond winning or losing,

657
00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:58,080
Speaker 1: even though I personally felt like once I look back

658
00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:00,760
Speaker 1: at the playlist, he won, I go, but it went

659
00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:02,960
Speaker 1: past that. It was bigger than that it was. It

660
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:05,560
Speaker 1: was a it was a win for for rmy I

661
00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:07,240
Speaker 1: felt good a good part of that night. I want

662
00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:11,400
Speaker 1: to know who you think is gonna win on June team.

663
00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:19,880
Speaker 1: M hm oh yeah, okay. So so I'm not sure.

664
00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:22,839
Speaker 1: I'm not sure. I'm trying to I'm trying to think

665
00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:25,359
Speaker 1: it hits okay, because because it's it's hits. That's that's

666
00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:27,680
Speaker 1: the thing that I did. I didn't exactly agree with.

667
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:29,760
Speaker 1: It's like some battles. Even in our battle, we played

668
00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:33,400
Speaker 1: some songs that wasn't necessarily hits, just something we wrote.

669
00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:35,359
Speaker 1: I think that I think that you should stick keep

670
00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:38,400
Speaker 1: it right. I agree with that you have some people

671
00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:42,120
Speaker 1: you lost that what it is you ain't gott enough

672
00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:44,200
Speaker 1: to play it hadn't had it. It had to at

673
00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:48,400
Speaker 1: least charted in the top ten, because sometimes you have

674
00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:50,439
Speaker 1: sons that might be your favorite. There was this album

675
00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:54,200
Speaker 1: catch that they're in the general public know the hits exactly.

676
00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:57,800
Speaker 1: It's a battle like it should just be hits, because

677
00:34:57,800 --> 00:34:59,920
Speaker 1: mind you, if you've done an album, if you've done

678
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:02,520
Speaker 1: with the two albums, you got songs, if you could play, yeah,

679
00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:07,160
Speaker 1: if it's a battle, if I'm trying to win, yeah,

680
00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:11,200
Speaker 1: I feel like he's didn't answer that well, but you thought,

681
00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:19,240
Speaker 1: and I want you to go ahead. Jes got her braids,

682
00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:22,600
Speaker 1: feel like, yeah, I'm going with Alicia Key you are.

683
00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:28,480
Speaker 1: I love it. I hope they don't want to get

684
00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:31,040
Speaker 1: what I think. I think Alicia might get it, if

685
00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:34,600
Speaker 1: not to mention that that's happening, not to mention that

686
00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:38,799
Speaker 1: her husband owned versus. I think that's why she's gonna win.

687
00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:41,920
Speaker 1: They're gonna brig it. No, they'd be like, sorry, we

688
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:46,560
Speaker 1: lost John Legard. I don't know. You're working everybody on

689
00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:52,000
Speaker 1: the line. But they're both on Liana. We don't know what.

690
00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:55,000
Speaker 1: I didn't realize that they're both gonna be on the piano.

691
00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:59,719
Speaker 1: That's so dope that they are Oh wow, I don't know,

692
00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:06,359
Speaker 1: why would you make some ship like that? Well, hey,

693
00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:10,480
Speaker 1: it only makes sense. So and the last thing I

694
00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:12,560
Speaker 1: want to say is, Neo, you know, I'm sure that

695
00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:14,560
Speaker 1: you have to be so happy that everything in your

696
00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:17,920
Speaker 1: life has come close circle. We saw Moneta and Crystal

697
00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:22,000
Speaker 1: on the Live Together. They like each other, and I

698
00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:24,000
Speaker 1: know so many people out there wanted to be in

699
00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:26,399
Speaker 1: that situation, in that stage. You know, they've gone through

700
00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:29,239
Speaker 1: things where they have lended families and it's been really,

701
00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:31,840
Speaker 1: really difficult. So you know, what was that like for

702
00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:33,480
Speaker 1: you to get to that process? And if you could

703
00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:35,680
Speaker 1: give those people some advice, what would you say As

704
00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:38,600
Speaker 1: far as the man's role and making sure that women

705
00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:42,760
Speaker 1: can get along? Um, well, I mean the man plays

706
00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:44,440
Speaker 1: a role in that, but not as big a role

707
00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:46,440
Speaker 1: as you would think. Like it really comes down to

708
00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:50,480
Speaker 1: the two women being mature enough to realize that there

709
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:52,200
Speaker 1: is nothing that we could be for about that is

710
00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:54,640
Speaker 1: more important than making sure that these kids are raised properably,

711
00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:58,040
Speaker 1: That these kids are raised seeing love and only love

712
00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:01,440
Speaker 1: from all of this, from all of this authoritians or whatever.

713
00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:04,319
Speaker 1: That's the part that that's the thing that that outweighs

714
00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:07,399
Speaker 1: in beef that we could ever have mine. We don't

715
00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:09,520
Speaker 1: gotta be friends if we just ain't gonna be friends.

716
00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:11,719
Speaker 1: But we also ain't gonna be yelling and screaming and

717
00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:13,840
Speaker 1: bickering and fighting, fussing and fighting back and forth in

718
00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:17,080
Speaker 1: front of these kids, showing them that there's beef here.

719
00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:18,960
Speaker 1: You know, we can be cordial. I can say how

720
00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:20,320
Speaker 1: do you? When you come around, you say how do we?

721
00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:23,440
Speaker 1: You go away? You know, It's it's rare, but a

722
00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:26,400
Speaker 1: blessing that that, you know, Crystal and Mo actually found,

723
00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:28,640
Speaker 1: you know, a way to become to become friends. It's

724
00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:30,920
Speaker 1: like they talked to each other more than more than

725
00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:35,640
Speaker 1: they talk to me. Now I'm not I'm I'm a

726
00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:40,239
Speaker 1: little jealous, Sam, But but um yeah, it wasn't. It

727
00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:42,520
Speaker 1: was definitely not easy, you know what I'm saying. It's

728
00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:44,200
Speaker 1: it's really easy to say the words. It's a whole

729
00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:46,680
Speaker 1: other thing to now get into you your feelings and

730
00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:49,319
Speaker 1: emotions and try to apply that. It's difficult. It's very

731
00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:52,239
Speaker 1: very difficult. You know, Crystal took a lot of unnecessary

732
00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:54,480
Speaker 1: backlash when we first got together because people thought that

733
00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:57,600
Speaker 1: I left more for a Crystal. What people didn't realize

734
00:37:57,640 --> 00:37:59,480
Speaker 1: that me and Mo had been have been separated for

735
00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:01,920
Speaker 1: a year and a half before I met Crystal, but

736
00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:04,600
Speaker 1: they just but you know how people just not take

737
00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:06,880
Speaker 1: things and create drama and and a lot of people

738
00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:09,759
Speaker 1: got that Crystal about home record and all of that,

739
00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:13,560
Speaker 1: and it's like, like, nigga, what you got me into

740
00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:17,480
Speaker 1: you with that? The reason for their differences though, because like,

741
00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:20,120
Speaker 1: was it just that people pinning them against each other,

742
00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:22,480
Speaker 1: because if it didn't overlap, but with the point of

743
00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:25,040
Speaker 1: even having an issue with each other at all, but

744
00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:27,759
Speaker 1: you want to like the next woman that gets it,

745
00:38:28,760 --> 00:38:31,760
Speaker 1: I think above anything that they had against each other personally,

746
00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:34,480
Speaker 1: it was it was the gasoline that the media put

747
00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:37,120
Speaker 1: on the fire you got because it almost felt like

748
00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:39,480
Speaker 1: people wanted them to be against each other, you know

749
00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:42,120
Speaker 1: what I mean, Like it was real rare that anybody

750
00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:45,000
Speaker 1: was trying to be like, hey, why don't y'all you know,

751
00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:48,920
Speaker 1: you don't nobody says that, Like that's right girls and

752
00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:52,200
Speaker 1: all that. Yeah, And it's really easy, it's really easy

753
00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:54,800
Speaker 1: to talk to to to buy into that, you know

754
00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:56,759
Speaker 1: what I mean. You know, you got your friends with

755
00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:58,759
Speaker 1: an opinion, She got her friends with an opinion, and

756
00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:03,800
Speaker 1: it's and then you got it. Took them sitting down together,

757
00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:06,880
Speaker 1: sitting down in front of each other, just them too,

758
00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:10,000
Speaker 1: to come to where they are and take your friends

759
00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:11,879
Speaker 1: over there, keep your friends over there. Let's let's sit

760
00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:14,360
Speaker 1: and really be women about this and get to and

761
00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:17,319
Speaker 1: get to the bottom of what the real issue. Once

762
00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:19,799
Speaker 1: they did that, they're good. You know what I mean.

763
00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:23,279
Speaker 1: But again, that's a difficult conversation I have. But if

764
00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:25,440
Speaker 1: if I could give any advice, I say that it's

765
00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:28,280
Speaker 1: one that must be had after I got out away,

766
00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:30,759
Speaker 1: because we don't. The only people that suffer at the

767
00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:33,480
Speaker 1: end of the day is them. Did I came from

768
00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:35,719
Speaker 1: that environment. I grew up in an environment where my

769
00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:38,560
Speaker 1: father was married and also had another woman that he

770
00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:40,920
Speaker 1: had children brock. So there were three women bickering and

771
00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:44,239
Speaker 1: there were seven ten children involved, and I was one

772
00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:46,560
Speaker 1: of those children. So I saw my mother arguing with

773
00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:48,880
Speaker 1: his wife from arguin with his other girlfriend and fights

774
00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:51,279
Speaker 1: and busted out windows. And then I also saw as

775
00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:54,480
Speaker 1: I grew up that they did come together, and I

776
00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:58,000
Speaker 1: always wished for that day, Like I didn't get to

777
00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:00,920
Speaker 1: have the time that I needed with my siblings because

778
00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:04,480
Speaker 1: our parents were bickering. So at the time that that

779
00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:06,600
Speaker 1: was able to happen and they were able to come together.

780
00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:09,960
Speaker 1: I was like rejoicing it because now it's everybody's happy,

781
00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:12,840
Speaker 1: everybody's in love, and I just time with my family.

782
00:40:12,840 --> 00:40:15,200
Speaker 1: And I don't feel bad for wanting to be with

783
00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:16,840
Speaker 1: my dad or you know, for wanting to people my

784
00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:18,680

00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:20,960
Speaker 1: I could to spend time with my siblings. Yeah, that
