What 0:01:09.680 --> 0:01:13.240 do you guys thoughts on LSU, Angel Reese and Jill Biden. 0:01:13.280 --> 0:01:16.120 The Jill Biden controversy. You guys know that LSU won 0:01:16.160 --> 0:01:21.320 the we didn't know that ship for people who don't 0:01:21.319 --> 0:01:23.280 know because it's a podcast and some people be in 0:01:23.400 --> 0:01:28.240 Lala land. Um, Jill Biden, the uh, the wife of 0:01:28.280 --> 0:01:31.800 the president, the first lady. She invited both teams to 0:01:31.920 --> 0:01:35.000 go to the White House, and then of course one team, 0:01:35.040 --> 0:01:37.840 one team one and that never happens. You never invite both. 0:01:38.319 --> 0:01:40.680 It was like one h two to eighty five. Yeah. Yeah, 0:01:40.680 --> 0:01:42.679 it was a really good game. I watched that game. 0:01:42.959 --> 0:01:44.440 It was a good game. And that was my first 0:01:44.440 --> 0:01:48.040 time ever watching a woman's basketball game. And for the record, 0:01:48.200 --> 0:01:51.560 Caitlin Clark is a bad mother weather none time out. 0:01:51.920 --> 0:01:55.400 He's bad. She's not a bad girl. I only watched 0:01:55.440 --> 0:01:58.400 it for her. I shoot, she just shoot from the pardlt. 0:01:58.440 --> 0:02:00.080 I don't know why they put the black verse the 0:02:00.120 --> 0:02:03.040 white thing, but he's fired anyway. With Internet about that, 0:02:03.280 --> 0:02:06.280 the Internet, I felt like the way it ended up 0:02:06.320 --> 0:02:09.040 playing out the way it should have played out. Yeah, um, 0:02:09.320 --> 0:02:12.760 you know LSU man shout out the LSU. Yeah yeah 0:02:13.120 --> 0:02:15.880 they did. The ladies got down, um and Kaitlyn is 0:02:15.960 --> 0:02:18.200 hard like she she should get down. And I think 0:02:18.240 --> 0:02:21.920 that Caitlin actually calmed everything down. He did when when 0:02:22.000 --> 0:02:25.919 she got an opportunity to um speak about it, Yeah, 0:02:25.919 --> 0:02:27.520 speak about it. And man, I think she was real 0:02:27.600 --> 0:02:30.480 professional sportsmanship, right, I think she did. Yeah. I don't 0:02:30.480 --> 0:02:33.239 think she wanted to smoke though with what baby girl 0:02:33.520 --> 0:02:36.960 facts facts the court, Yeah on the court by Kayla 0:02:37.000 --> 0:02:39.560 got all the smoke. Listen. I don't think I don't 0:02:39.600 --> 0:02:42.000 think that both teams should have been invited, you know. Fact, 0:02:42.080 --> 0:02:43.799 I think LSU kind of looked at that as like 0:02:43.880 --> 0:02:45.880 a slap in the face. And then and you know, 0:02:46.040 --> 0:02:48.160 the only the thing that I hate most about the 0:02:48.240 --> 0:02:52.720 Internet is the Internet and the media makes everything so racial. 0:02:52.840 --> 0:02:56.720 It's like everything has to be black and white. It's like, hey, 0:02:57.000 --> 0:03:01.399 I feel like that's never gonna stop. Keep in mind 0:03:01.480 --> 0:03:06.520 because we saw it with Larry Bird and Magic Johnson UM, 0:03:06.800 --> 0:03:09.320 and it's just I don't I haven't seen a female 0:03:09.560 --> 0:03:12.520 rivalry like that in a long time. I can't even 0:03:12.600 --> 0:03:16.639 remember one that was good for TV for me. For me, 0:03:16.960 --> 0:03:20.040 that was the viral moment for female basketball, you know 0:03:20.080 --> 0:03:21.600 what I mean? Like that, this is the moment I 0:03:21.680 --> 0:03:23.679 think we all look back on and say, like this 0:03:23.840 --> 0:03:26.120 was the turning for Remember what I'm saying, and I 0:03:26.200 --> 0:03:29.400 feel like, well, it's it's about time that I want 0:03:29.400 --> 0:03:30.840 to go on record to say I think it's about 0:03:30.880 --> 0:03:33.359 time that the females start get pay Come on now. Yeah, 0:03:33.440 --> 0:03:35.000 you know what I'm saying. They got they gotta feel them, 0:03:35.200 --> 0:03:37.160 they gotta feel them seats up. Though they feel they 0:03:37.200 --> 0:03:39.360 feel well, I think they was the attention that it 0:03:39.600 --> 0:03:43.120 was felt. Yeah, like they feel the seats up right. 0:03:43.280 --> 0:03:45.400 But not only that, I feel like it's more than 0:03:45.560 --> 0:03:47.760 enough ways for them to figure out how to, you know, 0:03:47.880 --> 0:03:50.160 how to put put people in the seats. Um. I 0:03:50.280 --> 0:03:53.640 think if they, you know, started to do more um 0:03:53.840 --> 0:03:58.360 participation in advertising, you know what I'm saying, Um, you know, 0:03:58.480 --> 0:04:01.760 commercializing it more, um, just bringing more light to it, 0:04:01.920 --> 0:04:03.800 you know what I mean, Like girls be balling. Yeah, 0:04:03.800 --> 0:04:05.840 I think I think they need more media coverage. I 0:04:05.920 --> 0:04:09.000 think the media to speak more about because this is 0:04:09.000 --> 0:04:12.040 probably the most I've ever seen a woman's basketball game 0:04:12.120 --> 0:04:14.960 being being covered in the number showed like I believe 0:04:15.120 --> 0:04:18.520 the whole game. I did too. Yeah, I've never even 0:04:18.560 --> 0:04:20.960 watched a woman's basketball game. I watched the whole game 0:04:21.040 --> 0:04:23.920 like I'm watching watching the NBA Finals. I'm like, I was, 0:04:24.120 --> 0:04:27.920 Oh my God, I was one time for fly J's 0:04:27.960 --> 0:04:30.160 my little homie. Remember she was on she was on 0:04:30.320 --> 0:04:32.760 the Rap Game, she was on the Rap JD. She 0:04:32.920 --> 0:04:36.120 now plays for LG and she has a recording deal 0:04:36.320 --> 0:04:40.400 with rock Nation. Wow, big shout out to her. Yeah yeah, 0:04:40.440 --> 0:04:42.880 all right, all right, right, all right, um, how'd your kids? 0:04:42.960 --> 0:04:46.000 How'd your wife? No? Okay. Marcus Houston says he met 0:04:46.080 --> 0:04:48.919 his wife when she was seventeen, but did not pursue 0:04:49.000 --> 0:04:52.480 a relationship until she was eighteen. He is twenty years 0:04:52.560 --> 0:04:57.400 older than her. Thoughts, y'all didn't know that. I knew that, 0:04:57.760 --> 0:05:00.320 but go ahead. He met her at seventeen and did 0:05:00.400 --> 0:05:03.119 not pursue it that she was eighteen. He's twenty years old. Yeah, 0:05:03.320 --> 0:05:06.320 he talked to or anything. He wait until she was legal. League, 0:05:07.080 --> 0:05:12.120 come one, who is believing that you met a young 0:05:12.279 --> 0:05:14.760 lady at seventeen and you said, Hey, I'm gonna wait 0:05:14.880 --> 0:05:17.480 twelve months and talk it. Take you on a day. 0:05:17.600 --> 0:05:22.559 I think this stuff, Lisa, stop resurfacing because this happened before, 0:05:23.120 --> 0:05:25.880 because I remember when he married her and they would 0:05:25.920 --> 0:05:28.840 talk about the age gap and how how young she 0:05:29.120 --> 0:05:32.960 was and nothing happened. So like, why are we continuing? 0:05:33.240 --> 0:05:36.480 Like why are we continuingly talking about it if we're 0:05:36.520 --> 0:05:38.679 not gonna say or do anything, you know you want 0:05:38.720 --> 0:05:41.120 to people, go ahead, go ahead, I said, you want 0:05:41.120 --> 0:05:43.160 to know why people keep talking about it because r 0:05:43.240 --> 0:05:46.960 Kelly and Jail and they was high. They look at 0:05:47.000 --> 0:05:49.360 that time they were sweeping another rug under the rug 0:05:49.480 --> 0:05:52.080 and then it came back out again and they for years. 0:05:52.600 --> 0:05:57.840 Car Malone, My thing is, I wouldn't get would I 0:05:57.920 --> 0:06:01.039 would want more attention on things. Does this matter? I don't. 0:06:01.120 --> 0:06:05.279 I'm not upset that this stuff keeps rehashing. We needed 0:06:05.360 --> 0:06:07.640 to just to protect these women out here. What do 0:06:07.680 --> 0:06:11.400 you think about this, Sean? I mean, I think what 0:06:11.520 --> 0:06:15.360 do y'all y'all feel like? I mean, but do you 0:06:15.440 --> 0:06:19.920 feel like do you feel like the women are like 0:06:20.040 --> 0:06:22.600 who Who's whose fault? Do you think it is just 0:06:23.360 --> 0:06:26.680 like the whoever's older, it's their fault? Whoever is the 0:06:26.800 --> 0:06:31.480 mature dog? She's seventeen when he had his eye on 0:06:31.600 --> 0:06:37.400 her and thirty seven a thirty seven year old man 0:06:37.480 --> 0:06:40.400 should not be a mutual friend too. So some people 0:06:40.480 --> 0:06:42.320 and that's a little sketchy because some people we were 0:06:42.360 --> 0:06:44.440 talking with Gail be and the uh they do? What 0:06:44.560 --> 0:06:48.120 does what does she call it um grooming? Yeah, some 0:06:48.279 --> 0:06:50.960 people do the grooming thing, so that's kind of raises 0:06:51.000 --> 0:06:53.880 a brow too. She turns eighteen, he turns thirty eight. 0:06:55.279 --> 0:06:58.520 Still a twenty year gap. Ain't no twenty eight year 0:06:58.560 --> 0:07:03.320 olds or thirty two year olds or not see this 0:07:03.440 --> 0:07:05.880 as a red flag. Well, I think the mutual friend 0:07:06.279 --> 0:07:08.279 was was the probably one of them that was helping 0:07:08.360 --> 0:07:11.600 doing the grooming. You know what I'm saying, like, like, 0:07:12.160 --> 0:07:14.360 I don't know, I believe with people adults, you know, 0:07:14.680 --> 0:07:17.400 the age thing, the age the age yub don't don't 0:07:17.600 --> 0:07:21.360 think eighteen is not an adults But he said seventeen. 0:07:21.440 --> 0:07:24.920 I mean he probably really met her at fifteen, nineteen twenty. 0:07:25.200 --> 0:07:27.600 It's like you have so much more things going on 0:07:28.160 --> 0:07:32.840 around that those times frame mentally. But well they married now, right, 0:07:33.280 --> 0:07:37.640 all right, says man. Code wives and baby mamas are 0:07:37.760 --> 0:07:40.600 off limits. What are your thoughts? And do you agree 0:07:40.920 --> 0:07:44.480 like baby mamas is off limits amongst friends meaning you know, 0:07:44.600 --> 0:07:46.440 my baby mom, you shouldn't be here. I think he 0:07:46.600 --> 0:07:49.400 was saying it as like an industry thing, like people 0:07:50.000 --> 0:07:58.440 you know like you Yeah, yeah, I mean I me personally, 0:07:58.880 --> 0:08:02.440 I probably would take that same it that same route. 0:08:02.480 --> 0:08:05.840 I mean, respectfully, I don't think that I would if 0:08:05.880 --> 0:08:10.320 I know somebody, Uh, the baby Mama's probably a little 0:08:10.360 --> 0:08:13.120 bit of off limits. Yeah, it was a little bit. 0:08:13.440 --> 0:08:17.640 I mean, what if the opportunity presents itself. Is she single? 0:08:18.640 --> 0:08:21.440 That is true? I don't know if if it's somebody 0:08:21.480 --> 0:08:24.160 that I'm cool with, like that, I'm cool with. Yeah, 0:08:24.160 --> 0:08:26.520 I definitely, I'm probably not gonna now. I think if 0:08:26.680 --> 0:08:28.880 I think the baby mama is off limits, if you 0:08:29.040 --> 0:08:31.640 if you know the kid, you know what I'm saying, 0:08:31.880 --> 0:08:34.520 like like, if you ain't got no relationship with the kid, 0:08:35.120 --> 0:08:41.600 then it's like I don't think the baby Oh lord 0:08:42.160 --> 0:08:44.960 who Future does definitely does no bout. I mean, ain't 0:08:44.960 --> 0:08:46.760 got no choice but to know each other. I don't 0:08:46.760 --> 0:08:48.920 know they don't have no choice. But I'm saying, prior 0:08:49.000 --> 0:08:51.480 to him dating his baby mama, did he know that 0:08:51.679 --> 0:08:54.000 was Oh, I don't know. I don't think. I don't 0:08:54.040 --> 0:08:58.800 think Future and Batau ran around the same. Yeah, yeah, 0:08:58.800 --> 0:09:00.559 I don't think that was in the same But is 0:09:00.600 --> 0:09:02.320 that not like he said, Like we were just saying, 0:09:02.360 --> 0:09:05.480 it's like an industry standard, like bro code. I'm guessing 0:09:05.600 --> 0:09:08.199 man ain't nobody ain't nobody baby mama off limits. I 0:09:08.200 --> 0:09:13.199 don't think yes, because the dollar reason why I say 0:09:13.240 --> 0:09:16.839 wives are off limits because people people saying the same. 0:09:17.320 --> 0:09:18.920 I think, I think people will kill you over their 0:09:18.920 --> 0:09:23.199 baby mama too.

I'm from Atlanta from um and 0:15:39.720 --> 0:15:42.240 you grew you grew here? Know. I moved to Europe 0:15:42.240 --> 0:15:45.720 when I was fired, okay, um? And how what made 0:15:45.760 --> 0:15:48.720 you get into music? Like? Was music something that that 0:15:48.920 --> 0:15:51.080 was already in you? Like? How did you? Because you 0:15:51.120 --> 0:15:53.720 know it's hard to become a number one hit writer. 0:15:54.160 --> 0:15:55.880 So you know I was an artist and saw my 0:15:55.960 --> 0:15:58.880 first record deal when I was fourteen. Um, I came 0:15:58.920 --> 0:16:00.800 back to the States with who where do you? Who'd 0:16:00.840 --> 0:16:05.400 you signed with Aerial BMG so in Europe and I 0:16:05.520 --> 0:16:07.800 actually came back to the States to sign a new 0:16:07.880 --> 0:16:11.440 deal here in America, um My deal fell through. I 0:16:11.600 --> 0:16:14.440 was signing with Warner Um Warner that I worked for, 0:16:14.880 --> 0:16:20.920 yep um and so um and so then man, my 0:16:21.000 --> 0:16:25.080 mom came. My mom got sick and I and I'm 0:16:25.120 --> 0:16:29.000 losing my mom to cancer. And so I moved back 0:16:29.000 --> 0:16:33.840 to Atlanta, and you know, I started shopping um my 0:16:35.160 --> 0:16:38.840 demo for a new artist deal. Uh. And so people 0:16:38.920 --> 0:16:42.440 were like, yo, you were by Sean Garrett. Yeah. People 0:16:42.560 --> 0:16:44.640 were like, yo, you really read some great songs, like 0:16:44.920 --> 0:16:46.960 do you mind or would you mind writing songs for 0:16:47.040 --> 0:16:49.400 other people? And I was like, I don't really do that. 0:16:49.560 --> 0:16:55.560 Who asked you that? Just generally people were hearing. Yeah, 0:16:55.640 --> 0:16:57.280 And it was like a lot of the songs that 0:16:57.320 --> 0:16:59.800 I was that I wrote for myself, they were all different. 0:17:00.080 --> 0:17:03.760 I've always had this perspective of, like, none of my records. 0:17:03.960 --> 0:17:05.760 I never really wanted none of my records to sound 0:17:05.800 --> 0:17:09.200 the same. So I could do a body of work 0:17:09.560 --> 0:17:12.880 they would all go together, but they would they would 0:17:12.960 --> 0:17:16.880 definitely be different. Like, you know, like it made sense 0:17:16.920 --> 0:17:19.399 for me to do a year right on an album 0:17:19.480 --> 0:17:23.399 like Confessions, because my perspective would be, let me do 0:17:23.560 --> 0:17:25.879 something on this album that's going to be different, that's 0:17:25.920 --> 0:17:28.920 going to be a standout outside of what everyone else 0:17:29.040 --> 0:17:32.440 is doing, right, And so I never really even thought 0:17:32.480 --> 0:17:34.840 writing songs, writing and producing songs for other people with 0:17:34.960 --> 0:17:36.680 something that I really wanted to do. I never even 0:17:37.640 --> 0:17:40.280 something I never even thought that I wanted to do. 0:17:40.400 --> 0:17:44.399 And I actually was like totally against it until I 0:17:44.560 --> 0:17:48.000 lost my mom. And you know, it was really like 0:17:48.119 --> 0:17:50.840 a sort of a wake up call of just like 0:17:51.440 --> 0:17:54.760 realizing that, you know, life is short and she should 0:17:54.760 --> 0:17:56.280 always say, like, you know, you should put all your 0:17:56.280 --> 0:17:59.600 eggs in basket, in one basket. So I ended up 0:17:59.640 --> 0:18:06.520 doing a wishing deal with Hitco. I mean lad publishing company. 0:18:06.840 --> 0:18:11.000 UM original Hitco, the original one, Yeah, the original one. UM. 0:18:11.160 --> 0:18:13.000 And right before then, I started getting a lot of 0:18:13.160 --> 0:18:16.440 UM offers from different publishing companies. So I was like, damn, 0:18:16.480 --> 0:18:18.400 they really want to pay me this much money to write? 0:18:19.720 --> 0:18:21.920 Did you have a hit record for them to reach 0:18:22.000 --> 0:18:24.280 out to you like that or No. It was just 0:18:24.400 --> 0:18:26.320 like in our community, like in Atlanta, you know what 0:18:26.359 --> 0:18:28.840 I mean. It's like, you know, you had you had Hitco, 0:18:29.080 --> 0:18:31.240 you know, you had Sony, you got all these different 0:18:31.280 --> 0:18:33.800 publishing companies. That's right in our area, you know what 0:18:33.840 --> 0:18:36.720 I'm saying. So heard your stuff was circulating around. Yeah, 0:18:36.760 --> 0:18:39.040 it was kind of circulating around, and there was different people. 0:18:39.040 --> 0:18:42.159 And I actually ended up doing my deal with hitco 0:18:42.760 --> 0:18:46.120 Um God Rest his Soul with Shakier Stewart and Billy Callaway. 0:18:46.600 --> 0:18:50.600 So Billy Callaway was throwing these um Billy Callaway was 0:18:50.640 --> 0:18:53.960 doing these bowling leagues, the Entertainment Bowling League, so the 0:18:54.119 --> 0:18:57.440 Entertainment Bowling League. Everyone would be there, right, and so 0:18:58.040 --> 0:19:00.560 it was just all of the play is that was 0:19:00.600 --> 0:19:03.640 actually in Atlanta, Man, you had plugged in. Chris hicks 0:19:04.520 --> 0:19:09.800 Um was actually the president of Warner Chapel at the time, 0:19:09.840 --> 0:19:12.400 and then he also had Noontime. They also had Noontime, 0:19:12.600 --> 0:19:14.879 so neon Time was a whole production company. And then 0:19:14.920 --> 0:19:18.160 you got the dreams uh and Tricky they were all 0:19:18.200 --> 0:19:19.920 at what's the name, what's the name of their uh 0:19:20.800 --> 0:19:23.920 the click Uh damn, I forget the name of the click, 0:19:24.040 --> 0:19:26.919 but that was a whole click um. So you had 0:19:27.000 --> 0:19:29.760 like different section sectors of you know. B Cox was 0:19:29.800 --> 0:19:31.840 signed too, if I'm not mistaken, he was signed the 0:19:31.880 --> 0:19:35.160 Noontime John toy Austin was signed the Noontime UM. Jazz 0:19:35.240 --> 0:19:39.119 Fabe was signed a Noontime UM so you know you 0:19:39.359 --> 0:19:43.840 like that young click. I wasn't in the click just 0:19:43.920 --> 0:19:46.480 like people just liked the songs, you know what I'm saying. 0:19:46.520 --> 0:19:48.240 And so I ended up doing my deal a HITCO 0:19:48.640 --> 0:19:50.840 and and the crazy part was like, as an artist, 0:19:50.880 --> 0:19:55.159 I was an outsiders. As a publisher, that was my publisher, right. 0:19:55.240 --> 0:19:58.680 So as a producer and a songwriter, I was working there, right, 0:19:59.280 --> 0:20:03.240 I was signed there, and so um, my first opportunity 0:20:03.280 --> 0:20:06.480 to get it get in the game was UM working 0:20:06.520 --> 0:20:09.280 on Ushers. Yeah, I was working on was trying to 0:20:09.280 --> 0:20:12.119 get on Confessions, UM, and that was one that you 0:20:12.200 --> 0:20:14.040 were trying to get on there. So I was trying 0:20:14.080 --> 0:20:16.400 to get on there because it wasn't um, it wasn't easy, 0:20:16.480 --> 0:20:18.960 and it was like that you know, La had called me. 0:20:19.000 --> 0:20:21.520 It was like what you're gonna do? Kid? Like, you know, 0:20:21.880 --> 0:20:24.560 Confessions album is about to close. So I looked at 0:20:24.640 --> 0:20:30.320 that opportunity as man, if I if I can get 0:20:30.359 --> 0:20:33.399 on this album, this could be the start of something 0:20:33.440 --> 0:20:35.360 and I can get I can get in and get 0:20:35.359 --> 0:20:36.720 out of here, you know what I'm saying. Because my 0:20:36.760 --> 0:20:38.920 whole perspective was like I wanted to get in and 0:20:39.000 --> 0:20:41.600 get out. I really wanted to if I was gonna 0:20:41.600 --> 0:20:43.080 do this, I really wanted to do it. I wanted 0:20:43.080 --> 0:20:45.320 to do it at the highest level. So UM, I 0:20:45.440 --> 0:20:48.840 ended up doing my UM doing my deal there UM 0:20:49.320 --> 0:20:51.480 and so the quickest way I felt like I was 0:20:51.520 --> 0:20:55.399 gonna be able to because at the time everybody was 0:20:55.440 --> 0:20:58.560 real clickish, so I wasn't in the click to be 0:20:58.760 --> 0:21:01.400 very honest, you know what I mean. J d Um 0:21:01.720 --> 0:21:06.200 shout out to J d Um, Brian Michael Cox, a 0:21:06.280 --> 0:21:08.720 lot of these guys, man, they were already implemented in 0:21:08.840 --> 0:21:12.800 the systems right and so I'm an outsider UM at 0:21:12.840 --> 0:21:16.920 the time. Also, Pouvier was signed to Hitco um My 0:21:17.040 --> 0:21:21.840 man Zeke who now uh is president for um Epic. 0:21:23.000 --> 0:21:25.800 He was a songwriter, he worked, I mean he was 0:21:25.880 --> 0:21:30.840 signed to Hicco as well. Um Tab Tab was over 0:21:31.520 --> 0:21:33.640 uh No, I think Tab was signed a Hitco too, 0:21:34.119 --> 0:21:37.080 but he was a part of Tricky and Dreams crew. 0:21:37.680 --> 0:21:40.080 So to be honest, man, it was like they all 0:21:40.119 --> 0:21:43.760 thought all my records were completely They were like, who's 0:21:43.800 --> 0:21:45.600 this new guy? Man? His song was a whack like, 0:21:46.200 --> 0:21:48.800 so people thought your songs weren't good or they was 0:21:48.840 --> 0:21:50.960 just hating on you. I don't know what it was. Man. 0:21:51.080 --> 0:21:53.920 But you know, you know, I was an athlete. I'm 0:21:53.920 --> 0:21:58.280 an athlete, Bob Bob.
