  Speaker 5: Empires Sorea. But then I was like no, no, no, no, no,

  Speaker 2: And then I literally.
• 1:29
  Speaker 5: Said, well what if she not singing and she just
• 1:32
  Speaker 5: doing the spoken word put and you're literally just doing
• 1:35
  Speaker 5: the spoken word? Okay, how did you come about doing
• 1:38
  Speaker 5: that and hopping on the song with it? So I
• 1:40
  Speaker 5: went into the studio and Q who's in the room. Yeah,
• 1:45
  Speaker 5: he kind of convinced me. And then like I started
• 1:47
  Speaker 5: just working on a bunch of different songs and I
• 1:49
  Speaker 5: winded up doing this song with Corte hit Maker and
• 1:52
  Speaker 5: signed with Rough Riders for this single, so putting it
• 1:55
  Speaker 5: out and yeah, I just creatively sat in the studio
• 1:58
  Speaker 5: and did it.
• 1:59
  Speaker 6: Literally, I mean you come from of course, you know,
• 2:01
  Speaker 6: you're everyone's daughter, JoJo's sister.
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: They never inspired you to get in the studio.
• 2:05
  Speaker 5: I never wanted to do. I didn't I wasn't thinking
• 2:07
  Speaker 5: about it. But I do love music because music is
• 2:09
  Speaker 5: like everything. I use it to do everything, and so
• 2:12
  Speaker 5: I just felt the creative bug and I went in
• 2:14
  Speaker 5: the studio. I started this like two years ago, the process.
• 2:17
  Speaker 5: So I have a couple of different ones, but this
• 2:19
  Speaker 5: one I felt like I really felt led to put out.
• 2:21
  Speaker 6: Never like even Russell Simmons is your uncle, and you
• 2:24
  Speaker 6: never felt like going to the studio ever.
• 2:26
  Speaker 5: Sitting away from it, away from it just wasn't like
• 2:30
  Speaker 5: I just like, nah, let me not, let me let
• 2:32
  Speaker 5: them have it. That's what I was thinking.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: But you doing a whole project or this.
• 2:34
  Speaker 5: You a whole project for sure? And is it gonna
• 2:37
  Speaker 5: be strictly spoken word or are you going to have
• 2:39
  Speaker 5: other artists? It's a mix other artists. It's really about
• 2:42
  Speaker 5: like I started off doing it because of like meditation
• 2:44
  Speaker 5: and healing and stuff, so like meditation stuff and just
• 2:47
  Speaker 5: things that inspire and uplift. And then like I got
• 2:50
  Speaker 5: further and further in and I'm like, Jada is honest
• 2:53
  Speaker 5: with me, Like I'm really doing it, you know what
• 2:54
  Speaker 5: I mean? Like, so it's gonna be a mix, definitely,
• 2:57
  Speaker 5: the project's gonna be a mix of different artists. And myself.
• 2:59
  Speaker 7: You said you felt led to put this one out,
• 3:01
  Speaker 7: and I know, and the song is talking about being
• 3:02
  Speaker 7: in amaze and figure things out. And we've watched you
• 3:04
  Speaker 7: go through various things over the years. Why now did
• 3:08
  Speaker 7: you think that the spirit led you here? Like is
• 3:10
  Speaker 7: there a sense of healing.
• 3:11
  Speaker 5: That I would say time in and alignment. It was
• 3:13
  Speaker 5: right timing for me, like I said, I've been working
• 3:16
  Speaker 5: on it for a while, and it just all the
• 3:18
  Speaker 5: pieces started coming together, like rough Riders coming to being
• 3:20
  Speaker 5: a part of it. Me finally ready to just put
• 3:22
  Speaker 5: the music out there, and it was timing for me.
• 3:25
  Speaker 6: It is interesting because you know, with somebody with your
• 3:27
  Speaker 6: last name, you get into the music industry, people automatically
• 3:30
  Speaker 6: think legacy.
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: Did growing up around music make.
• 3:33
  Speaker 6: This feel inevitable or did it make you hesitate because
• 3:35
  Speaker 6: of expectations?
• 3:36
  Speaker 5: I feel like at first, I definitely because of expectations,
• 3:39
  Speaker 5: wouldn't have touched music at all. But I'm so creative
• 3:42
  Speaker 5: that I can't help myself, you know what I mean.
• 3:43
  Speaker 5: Like I was like, I'm gonna do it, and this
• 3:45
  Speaker 5: is what I'm gonna give and I think it's dope.
• 3:48
  Speaker 5: I love it. So what do y'all think of it.
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: I thought it was dope.
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: I listen to it again now.
• 3:53
  Speaker 5: To me, it sounds like a theme song to like
• 3:54
  Speaker 5: a drama series, like something Fitty would put on on Power,
• 3:58
  Speaker 5: one of those I do. I really see that for it.
• 4:01
  Speaker 5: Thank you.
• 4:01
  Speaker 6: Then in my mind I was like, this ain't Angels,
• 4:05
  Speaker 6: because I was like, that's what I like.
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: I'm like, she's saying she sound this good and she
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: ain't never saying.
• 4:09
  Speaker 5: Ever and rip and she ain't been in the studio.
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: No it's not you. So listen again, No, no, no,
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: I just got to hear it again.
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 4:23
  Speaker 5: I listened to all of it, everything from the artist,
• 4:26
  Speaker 5: your part, and Jada. I thought it flowed great. Thank you. Yeah,
• 4:29
  Speaker 5: what he likes it. He's happy for me.
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: He know you were doing it, or it was one
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: of those things like Dad played this way in the car.
• 4:36
  Speaker 5: It was one of those things where I just called
• 4:37
  Speaker 5: him the next day. I was like, I was in
• 4:38
  Speaker 5: the studio. He's like what I said to him, and
• 4:43
  Speaker 5: he's super supportive. He loves it. He loves Jadea on it.
• 4:45
  Speaker 5: He likes the video. You guys probably haven't seen the
• 4:47
  Speaker 5: video yet. It's gonna drop. Yeah, we did a video,
• 4:49
  Speaker 5: so we did the whole thing.
• 4:51
  Speaker 6: Yeah, some people say Angela Simmons is already successful, So
• 4:54
  Speaker 6: why music?
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: Is it about passion expression? Something to yourself?
• 4:57
  Speaker 5: Passion expression, creativity, just doing what I want to do
• 5:01
  Speaker 5: and not letting people put me in a box. You
• 5:03
  Speaker 5: know what I mean, Like I do what I want
• 5:04
  Speaker 5: because I want to do it, not because I'm supposed
• 5:07
  Speaker 5: to do things a certain way. So for me, it's
• 5:09
  Speaker 5: like I'm just doing me.
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: So what do you enjoy doing? Because we've see the
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: Angelus cakes, we see this.
• 5:13
  Speaker 5: Sh and that's still live and active.
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: Seeing the music, So what do you enjoy to do
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: the most? It was just entrepreneurship, all of it.
• 5:20
  Speaker 5: Like I think that's the thing about being an entrepreneur
• 5:22
  Speaker 5: is like a lot of times people tell you can
• 5:24
  Speaker 5: only do one thing, and I'm like, yo, that's hard
• 5:26
  Speaker 5: for me because like I do multiple things just naturally,
• 5:29
  Speaker 5: wake up, workout, I'm in wellness. What can I do
• 5:31
  Speaker 5: about it? That's my real life, you know what I'm saying.
• 5:32
  Speaker 5: So I think it's just being creative and being able
• 5:35
  Speaker 5: to be a creator. Like I'm a creator. That's just
• 5:38
  Speaker 5: what I do.
• 5:38
  Speaker 7: What things, what lessons that you've learned all these years
• 5:41
  Speaker 7: in business, are you bringing into like angelist and it
• 5:43
  Speaker 7: is the artist.
• 5:44
  Speaker 5: Well, it's Angela Renee. That's my name as an artist, right,
• 5:48
  Speaker 5: But as an artist, it's just like letting myself flow
• 5:50
  Speaker 5: and be whatever that is. Like I don't think there's
• 5:53
  Speaker 5: no cap on how I can do this thing, and
• 5:54
  Speaker 5: I do feel like it's a different lane that I
• 5:56
  Speaker 5: haven't seen out there, Like I'm mixing myself with other
• 5:59
  Speaker 5: artists and then I'm coming in and doing like a
• 6:01
  Speaker 5: spoken word part, which I have not seen done. Like
• 6:03
  Speaker 5: I've never heard anything like what I'm putting out, you know,
• 6:06
  Speaker 5: as far as how unique it is. So yeah, just
• 6:08
  Speaker 5: allowing myself to flow in that and be who I am.
• 6:13
  Speaker 5: Man Like I started the music stuff like two years ago,
• 6:16
  Speaker 5: so like I've been in the studio night has just
• 6:18
  Speaker 5: started working on multiple different sounds because for me, I
• 6:21
  Speaker 5: like so many different things in music, you know what
• 6:23
  Speaker 5: I mean. It's not like I don't like just one genre.
• 6:25
  Speaker 5: So I was like, I want to hear different stuff.
• 6:28
  Speaker 5: And I was inspired by so many people like Jeneko,
• 6:30
  Speaker 5: and I was listening to these different artists every day
• 6:32
  Speaker 5: like for inspiration and healing, and I was like it
• 6:35
  Speaker 5: did something for me, Like that was like the first
• 6:37
  Speaker 5: thing I was listening to in the morning. I'm like,
• 6:39
  Speaker 5: I should do my own thing. And then I just
• 6:41
  Speaker 5: got like for further and further in it.
• 6:43
  Speaker 7: Wo.
• 6:44
  Speaker 6: It used to be so big in the culture, Like yeah,
• 6:46
  Speaker 6: because of things like death poetry, yeah you know what
• 6:48
  Speaker 6: I mean, but also because the movies like Love Jones.
• 6:50
  Speaker 6: I wonder why we got away from that.
• 6:52
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah that's true. Have you ever done it live? No,
• 6:55
  Speaker 5: but I will. I'm ready. Yeah, yeah, for sure.
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: I was gonna ask you when you came with the concept,
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: who was the first person you told? What were their thoughts?
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: Be like, let's do a spoken word on a record
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: with a singer and a.
• 7:05
  Speaker 5: Rap Like I didn't even know what I was doing.
• 7:06
  Speaker 5: I just went in the studio courte Q and I
• 7:10
  Speaker 5: started in New York and then like for like a week,
• 7:13
  Speaker 5: I was just going to New York, New York.
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: State.
• 7:17
  Speaker 5: That's like that was.
• 7:20
  Speaker 7: Boston.
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: That's not a Boston Memphis together. Yeah, I don't know.
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: I was like, where did that come from? I'm sorry
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: New York?
• 7:27
  Speaker 5: Yeah, so Memphis no more? Yeah, I mean you know,
• 7:32
  Speaker 5: but well anyway, So I was in New York, and
• 7:36
  Speaker 5: so we went in the studio and there was just
• 7:39
  Speaker 5: like different beats and I got to sit there and
• 7:41
  Speaker 5: like just play with them. Like I went in the
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: booth and I didn't write anything down. I was thinking
• 7:45
  Speaker 5: I was gonna write, and it just flowed straight up
• 7:47
  Speaker 5: out of my head whatever I was thinking. And I
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: did that for multiple days and then I just kept
• 7:51
  Speaker 5: going with it.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: So when did Jis get on there?
• 7:53
  Speaker 5: He got on it maybe like at least twelve months
• 7:57
  Speaker 5: ago set with hit Maker, and then hit Maker hit
• 8:00
  Speaker 5: it Jada and Jada jumped on in like less than
• 8:02
  Speaker 5: a week.
• 8:02
  Speaker 8: So did he just hear what you had already done?
• 8:05
  Speaker 5: Yeah?
• 8:05
  Speaker 8: Okay, yeah, okay.
• 8:08
  Speaker 5: I think you should do a spoken word too, because,
• 8:10
  Speaker 5: like Shaula said, we got away from it and I
• 8:13
  Speaker 5: feel like a live event like that, that's so intimate,
• 8:17
  Speaker 5: that's so like, that's the connection with people like you know,
• 8:20
  Speaker 5: that's why you haven't done it live because I want to, Oh,
• 8:24
  Speaker 5: I want to. I already have some big plans for
• 8:26
  Speaker 5: how even when to roll this out going forward. I
• 8:29
  Speaker 5: just love live music. I love music. I love the culture,
• 8:32
  Speaker 5: even like the young lady Reason who's on it, like
• 8:35
  Speaker 5: having her part of it. Her voice is incredible. I
• 8:38
  Speaker 5: was like, let's leave you on this, you know what
• 8:39
  Speaker 5: I mean, Like I think it's dope. You're already dope
• 8:41
  Speaker 5: on it. She's a writer, so like I just I
• 8:43
  Speaker 5: love using my platform for stuff like that.
• 8:45
  Speaker 6: Yeah, but how do you prepare yourself for the criticism
• 8:48
  Speaker 6: that might come with you know?
• 8:49
  Speaker 5: Now? You know I don't. I just don't care about criticism.
• 8:52
  Speaker 5: I am so used to public opinion and I've been
• 8:55
  Speaker 5: around it so long that I don't care. It's like
• 8:58
  Speaker 5: they're going to have their opinion about me regardless, good, bad, ugly,
• 9:00
  Speaker 5: you know what I mean. I feel like I am
• 9:02
  Speaker 5: who I am, So it's like I don't really care.
• 9:05
  Speaker 5: I'm I'm ready for whatever.
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: Had the Rough Riders thing come about.
• 9:10
  Speaker 5: That's like family, and it's like it just naturally flowed.
• 9:12
  Speaker 5: Like wise, like family and Rough Riders, you know, my
• 9:16
  Speaker 5: family history with them and the legacy behind that, So
• 9:18
  Speaker 5: it's kind of like naturally just flowed. Like I already
• 9:21
  Speaker 5: started working on my project independently, and I went to
• 9:24
  Speaker 5: them and talked to them and we just kind of
• 9:26
  Speaker 5: came together and that's what we did. That's how we
• 9:28
  Speaker 5: got to the single deal.
• 9:29
  Speaker 6: What do you want people to learn about you that
• 9:32
  Speaker 6: they don't already know from the music? Like what story
• 9:34
  Speaker 6: can you tell with the spoken word that you haven't
• 9:36
  Speaker 6: told already?
• 9:36
  Speaker 5: I just think more of more depth of who I am,
• 9:40
  Speaker 5: you know what I mean, seeing me on a different
• 9:41
  Speaker 5: creative level outside of just like what has been seen.
• 9:46
  Speaker 5: I feel like they'll see just more and me like
• 9:48
  Speaker 5: the people that I do know, the interactions that I
• 9:50
  Speaker 5: do have with these people who sit down have these
• 9:52
  Speaker 5: different connections and mixing sounds and just doing something that's different.
• 9:57
  Speaker 5: But you know, that's what I'm hoping they'll give from it.
• 9:59
  Speaker 8: Are you?
• 10:00
  Speaker 7: It seems like you're like in a really good place,
• 10:01
  Speaker 7: Like just energy wise, I feel like this song. Once
• 10:05
  Speaker 7: you're out on that tour, are you ready to have
• 10:07
  Speaker 7: the conversations with the women that come that connect to
• 10:09
  Speaker 7: being in that maze and trying to figure out so
• 10:10
  Speaker 7: many different things because you've kind of healed from a
• 10:12
  Speaker 7: lot of the things that you've been through.
• 10:14
  Speaker 5: Absolutely, I feel like that's one of my major things,
• 10:16
  Speaker 5: is doing stuff like this so that I can help
• 10:18
  Speaker 5: people heal, you know what I mean. I think everyone's
• 10:20
  Speaker 5: always at a different space in their life when it
• 10:22
  Speaker 5: comes to healing. We're always healing. Everyone's always healing from
• 10:25
  Speaker 5: something so linear, yes, like you gotta heal. So like
• 10:28
  Speaker 5: I would love to have those conversations, and I want
• 10:31
  Speaker 5: people to heal, and I want people to look themselves.
• 10:32
  Speaker 5: And you know, like in the song, I'm saying, look
• 10:34
  Speaker 5: yourself in americacause how long can you run from yourself?
• 10:36
  Speaker 5: You know what I mean? I feel like people run
• 10:37
  Speaker 5: from themselves all the time, every day, and we find
• 10:40
  Speaker 5: things to cover up for it, whether that be a substance,
• 10:43
  Speaker 5: whether that be love, whether that be people find up
• 10:45
  Speaker 5: all the time to run from the truth of themselves.
• 10:47
  Speaker 5: So I'm definitely ready to have those conversations.
• 10:49
  Speaker 6: So the success, the heartbreak, the motherhood, that's all gonna
• 10:52
  Speaker 6: be reflected in everything.
• 10:54
  Speaker 5: I mean, wherever I'm at in my life. I think
• 10:56
  Speaker 5: that's the good part about the booth. It's like an
• 10:58
  Speaker 5: open diary. Whatever make I'm from there, that's what it's
• 11:00
  Speaker 5: going to be. And then the collaboration with other artists
• 11:03
  Speaker 5: and coming together, like that's a whole different world it is.
• 11:08
  Speaker 5: I would go in there, have my candles lit and
• 11:11
  Speaker 5: maybe a glass of wine, you know what i mean.
• 11:12
  Speaker 5: Like I was like I had my request, we gotta
• 11:15
  Speaker 5: have lights a certain I like dark and then the light.
• 11:17
  Speaker 5: It's just it's a whole thing, and I prefer to
• 11:20
  Speaker 5: record in the evenings. Yeah, it's just like a better
• 11:22
  Speaker 5: thing for me.
• 11:23
  Speaker 7: Watching you on Angie Martinez a few it was like
• 11:25
  Speaker 7: seven eight months ago, and then hearing this song, I
• 11:27
  Speaker 7: was like, I wonder if she's ever thought like they're
• 11:29
  Speaker 7: spoken word, but you know how people do not a podcast,
• 11:32
  Speaker 7: but kind of like live conversations too. Like when I
• 11:35
  Speaker 7: watch you Anngie Martinez, I feel like I learned so
• 11:37
  Speaker 7: much more about Angela Simmons, the adult versus the Angela Simmons.
• 11:40
  Speaker 7: I used to watch online and just watch on television,
• 11:43
  Speaker 7: And I think a lot of people that there's a
• 11:45
  Speaker 7: disconnect sometimes there where they don't.
• 11:46
  Speaker 5: Huge huge disconnect because they again, they see me at
• 11:50
  Speaker 5: seventeen growing up on TV, so they're kind of stuck
• 11:54
  Speaker 5: at seventeen. So even when I do grown things, it's
• 11:56
  Speaker 5: like foreign to everybody, Oh you grown up? Uh duh,
• 12:00
  Speaker 5: missed about twenty years of my life. But you know
• 12:01
  Speaker 5: what I'm saying. It's like I think there's definitely a
• 12:04
  Speaker 5: disconnect and knowing who I truly am, and I don't
• 12:07
  Speaker 5: feel lad to have to push it. It's like, as
• 12:09
  Speaker 5: long as I'm out there and y'all begin to see
• 12:11
  Speaker 5: more of it, then you'll learn who Angela Rene is
• 12:14
  Speaker 5: and angel Simmons is.
• 12:15
  Speaker 6: Student people, So you still feel like people are judging
• 12:17
  Speaker 6: you based on who you were at nineteen instead of
• 12:19
  Speaker 6: who you are now.
• 12:20
  Speaker 5: They do, absolutely they do because you still see on
• 12:24
  Speaker 5: swim suits at all. Yeah, I remember, oh my god,
• 12:26
  Speaker 5: put on some clothes like I'd be like, this is
• 12:29
  Speaker 5: ridiculous if anyone else puts on a swim suit, if
• 12:31
  Speaker 5: anyone else like like even today, I have this on
• 12:33
  Speaker 5: the thongs out that that's risky for that like riskue,
• 12:36
  Speaker 5: like for people to see me like that. And I'm like,
• 12:38
  Speaker 5: do you know old I am. I have a whole child,
• 12:40
  Speaker 5: Like you're kidding me.
• 12:41
  Speaker 4: I'm not looking that.
• 12:44
  Speaker 7: The girls of the jeans and you showed a little
• 12:46
  Speaker 7: like no, no.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: No.
• 12:50
  Speaker 5: Artists.
• 12:52
  Speaker 4: The reason.
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: The reason you act like that is.
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: Reps dog man, But about it.
• 13:03
  Speaker 8: That's right, said you look good.
• 13:06
  Speaker 6: Always look at me, but look now it is kind
• 13:12
  Speaker 6: of crazy.
• 13:12
  Speaker 8: But it's like an outfit thing that people do.
• 13:14
  Speaker 7: But you gotta you gotta try, but you have to
• 13:18
  Speaker 7: carry a certain level of confidence. Ridiculousous, Okay, focused do
• 13:30
  Speaker 7: you have to have a certain level of confidence to
• 13:32
  Speaker 7: do and push through? Like just even the way people
• 13:34
  Speaker 7: critique what you wear at the fact that you're grown
• 13:37
  Speaker 7: now or whatever, and meeting you, not meeting because I've
• 13:39
  Speaker 7: met you before, but seeing you here today after watching
• 13:42
  Speaker 7: all that online, it's like you are completely unfazed. You like,
• 13:45
  Speaker 7: pop up, let me show you that me Like, but
• 13:47
  Speaker 7: is it always on faced? Because your responses are so
• 13:51
  Speaker 7: loud sometimes like.
• 13:52
  Speaker 5: I just don't care, simply like I really don't care
• 13:55
  Speaker 5: what anyone has to say. Like I to me, like,
• 13:58
  Speaker 5: if I'm straight in my world and everything's good, then
• 14:00
  Speaker 5: why am I concerned about with anybody the public or
• 14:04
  Speaker 5: an audience has to say. As long as my son's straight,
• 14:07
  Speaker 5: my family good, my friend's good, and I'm happy. Hey,
• 14:11
  Speaker 5: y'all could talk all day.
• 14:12
  Speaker 7: Was it tough for you when you decided to talk
• 14:13
  Speaker 7: about the split with Gotti because that got a lot
• 14:16
  Speaker 7: of conversations.
• 14:18
  Speaker 5: I just had to you know, I mean, I guess
• 14:19
  Speaker 5: cause we were public, you know, together. I understand, so
• 14:21
  Speaker 5: people had conversations about it, But no, not really, you
• 14:25
  Speaker 5: know what I mean. I don't think there's nothing bad there.
• 14:27
  Speaker 5: Love them to death, like so there's no problems. It's
• 14:30
  Speaker 5: just you know, publicly, when things happen and you are
• 14:32
  Speaker 5: public figure and things happen, people are curious what happened?
• 14:35
  Speaker 5: Oh no, not tough at all.
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: The funny thing is when you walked in here, the
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: first thing Yes said was like, Yo, what'd happened to
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: her sister?
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: Where's her sister?
• 14:44
  Speaker 5: Everyone always asks about my sister. She is the way
• 14:46
  Speaker 5: in California. She's not tough, but she's she's doing a lot.
• 14:50
  Speaker 5: She just actually, my brother Jojo has his podcast and
• 14:53
  Speaker 5: she just joined him. So now they're like colost together.
• 14:55
  Speaker 5: But she's in some movies that are coming out. She
• 14:58
  Speaker 5: stays in her own world too. I think that's just
• 15:00
  Speaker 5: the thing, like sometimes you just don't see her as
• 15:02
  Speaker 5: much caause she's not like socially out everywhere.
• 15:04
  Speaker 6: It's interesting because like a lot of influences launch brands now,
• 15:08
  Speaker 6: but y'all were doing it way before.
• 15:10
  Speaker 4: It was like a trendy thing.
• 15:12
  Speaker 6: You think people underestimated you and your sister's business mindset
• 15:15
  Speaker 6: early on.
• 15:16
  Speaker 5: I think it had never been done again, Like it
• 15:18
  Speaker 5: was a new lane, like girls female young girls putting
• 15:22
  Speaker 5: out sneakers wasn't a thing when you walked inside of
• 15:25
  Speaker 5: foot locker and all these things. You weren't seeing the
• 15:27
  Speaker 5: sneakers that we were putting out and we were literally
• 15:30
  Speaker 5: seventeen eighteen like young doing it. But they may have
• 15:34
  Speaker 5: underestimated it until it like did what it did. Line
• 15:37
  Speaker 5: it just it ended.
• 15:40
  Speaker 4: Y'all sold it.
• 15:41
  Speaker 5: No, we were working with another company, so it's a
• 15:43
  Speaker 5: license and they it's still so they have its own thing,
• 15:47
  Speaker 5: but it's not we're not affiliated with it got you.
• 15:49
  Speaker 4: Y'all built that up too, though, I mean had rappers
• 15:51
  Speaker 4: rapping about it.
• 15:52
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's true. We did build that up. That was
• 15:55
  Speaker 5: a fun run. Did you purposely lead Well, obviously you
• 15:58
  Speaker 5: purposely left Simmons off of Angela Renee? Is that because
• 16:03
  Speaker 5: what the pressure is that comes behind what people expected
• 16:05
  Speaker 5: you because you are Simmons or No. I just feel
• 16:07
  Speaker 5: like Angela Renee is a different part of me, you
• 16:09
  Speaker 5: know what I mean, Like more deep, more different conversations
• 16:13
  Speaker 5: than just what you see as Angela Simmons, Like I'll
• 16:15
  Speaker 5: be sharing more. It's a different part of me, and
• 16:18
  Speaker 5: I feel like the two are separate. It's like Angela Simmons,
• 16:20
  Speaker 5: the mom, angel Simmons, entrepreneur, and then there's like the
• 16:23
  Speaker 5: creative artist Angela Rene. You know what I'm saying, So
• 16:26
  Speaker 5: just a different part of me.
• 16:27
  Speaker 8: Had your son heard you on the music?
• 16:30
  Speaker 5: He did? He likes it. Actually told him I was
• 16:31
  Speaker 5: going to RAIDI. He said, do people listening to radio anymore?
• 16:38
  Speaker 4: Und million people?
• 16:39
  Speaker 5: Yes? See? I said, they asked about Jesus. What they
• 16:42
  Speaker 5: be asking about me? I said, I said, he called
• 16:44
  Speaker 5: me this morning. He's like, because he say, it's all
• 16:47
  Speaker 5: about business. He's got like an art business. I didn't
• 16:49
  Speaker 5: bought him a website, said waited for you to put
• 16:50
  Speaker 5: enough art on this so we could put it up.
• 16:52
  Speaker 5: He's like, I'm ready. I want my credit called. I'm
• 16:54
  Speaker 5: like broy bank card nine nine nobody. No. He asked
• 17:01
  Speaker 5: me that Khalil, did he not? He said that he's
• 17:03
  Speaker 5: so fast with his mouth. I was like, I'm getting
• 17:05
  Speaker 5: because he was like on the phone getting ready for school,
• 17:07
  Speaker 5: and I'm like he's like. I was like, I have radio.
• 17:09
  Speaker 5: People still listen to radio, I said. But the way
• 17:14
  Speaker 5: he said it to me, I was like, oh boy,
• 17:18
  Speaker 5: the only person that can really really hurt your feelings humble,
• 17:20
  Speaker 5: he will he can?
• 17:22
  Speaker 6: Yeah, how did motherhood shift the way you see success?
• 17:27
  Speaker 5: Longevity? Like what's the longevity and success? But also being
• 17:31
  Speaker 5: a mother, it's like you really don't want to miss
• 17:33
  Speaker 5: so many moments. I think I've been really like honing
• 17:36
  Speaker 5: in on that, Like how can I sit thirty days straight?
• 17:39
  Speaker 5: You know what I mean? Do my job from here
• 17:41
  Speaker 5: and be here for him because if the rapid way
• 17:44
  Speaker 5: he's growing, you know what I mean. So it's like,
• 17:46
  Speaker 5: how do you have longevity but be present for your
• 17:48
  Speaker 5: child making the right decision? And for me it's a solo,
• 17:50
  Speaker 5: dolo mission other than obviously my family, which are wonderful
• 17:54
  Speaker 5: with him. But it's like I gotta always shift and
• 17:56
  Speaker 5: figure out what city, state, what makes the most sense,
• 18:00
  Speaker 5: like what school's just longevity and figuring out what does
• 18:03
  Speaker 5: the legacy look like for him later, you know what
• 18:05
  Speaker 5: I mean, coming from my dad to me, to you know,
• 18:08
  Speaker 5: my family in general, down to him, what's next for him?
• 18:11
  Speaker 5: And being that like example for him?
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: How do you protect him? Because you talk about you
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: don't necessarily care about social media. But he's nine years old,
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: now he's in school. I'm sure he sees the thing
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: So how do you protect him?
• 18:21
  Speaker 5: If you can, he don't have. I don't give him
• 18:23
  Speaker 5: all access to all social media, even though he's very
• 18:26
  Speaker 5: smart and Google look up everything. I protect him to
• 18:29
  Speaker 5: my best ability. I think he obviously he's nine, so
• 18:32
  Speaker 5: he knows how to look up stuff.
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: But he's not on TikTok uh.
• 18:34
  Speaker 5: No TikTok no Instagram. He wants one, he wants to snap,
• 18:37
  Speaker 5: he wants it all. I'm like your mama on Instagram. Yeah,
• 18:42
  Speaker 5: he always got something to say, Oh you cut your hair.
• 18:46
  Speaker 5: I'm like, what is that bad or good? Like he's
• 18:50
  Speaker 5: always look at me, where you going? What time you're
• 18:51
  Speaker 5: getting back? He's on me, Yeah, he's on my heels.
• 18:56
  Speaker 7: Does he understand like who mom is and like all
• 18:59
  Speaker 7: that stuff? Like, does he the whole family?
• 19:03
  Speaker 5: He's learning and has learned over the years, but not fully.
• 19:06
  Speaker 5: Like it's an interesting position because he's always around so
• 19:09
  Speaker 5: much and he sees so much. I think slightly, but
• 19:12
  Speaker 5: not really Like I don't know. I don't think yet.
• 19:15
  Speaker 4: He even recognized his grandfather in a video.
• 19:18
  Speaker 5: Now he knows everything about Papa Papa, Like he knows
• 19:21
  Speaker 5: Papa's big. He'd be like, oh, yeah, that's you. Know
• 19:23
  Speaker 5: I show him everything Christmas time, Like look at these
• 19:25
  Speaker 5: videos you notice on Who's this? You know what I mean?
• 19:27
  Speaker 5: Like he knows that his favorite artist is Kendrick Gamarto.
• 19:30
  Speaker 5: I mean that's his playlist. He's funny.
• 19:35
  Speaker 6: How do you find the script to keep evolving when
• 19:38
  Speaker 6: like your personal pain.
• 19:39
  Speaker 4: Has been so poplar.
• 19:41
  Speaker 5: It's the healing, it's the getting therapy, it's the keeping
• 19:44
  Speaker 5: it real with yourself, which to me, even in the music,
• 19:47
  Speaker 5: that's the thing is like how do you keep it
• 19:48
  Speaker 5: real yourself? Are you good? Are you not good? What
• 19:51
  Speaker 5: are you doing for your mental health today? And that
• 19:53
  Speaker 5: to me is like why I'm so deep into like
• 19:54
  Speaker 5: wellness and fitness and stuff. It's like that keeps me sane.
• 19:58
  Speaker 5: That's my me time, that's my getaway time. So just
• 20:01
  Speaker 5: always checking back in with myself and making sure that
• 20:04
  Speaker 5: I'm doing the things I need to do to make
• 20:05
  Speaker 5: sure I'm well, and if I'm not, I'll step away
• 20:07
  Speaker 5: from everything. I don't ever care about shutting down, you
• 20:10
  Speaker 5: know what I mean, Like I'll shut everything down if
• 20:11
  Speaker 5: I don't feel like I'm in a good space.
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: Do you mind keeping your relationships public? Does that bother you?
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: Because people are always in your business.
• 20:17
  Speaker 5: It just depends if it makes sense for me and
• 20:19
  Speaker 5: my partner, Like and that's what we want to do,
• 20:21
  Speaker 5: we can do it. But I don't mind being private
• 20:24
  Speaker 5: and I don't mind being public. It's just about like
• 20:26
  Speaker 5: if we solid then we good. We don't have nothing
• 20:28
  Speaker 5: else to worry about. This's the thing. But I do
• 20:30
  Speaker 5: see a lot of times when people go to public
• 20:31
  Speaker 5: their relationship goes bad. But I mean I dated publicly
• 20:33
  Speaker 5: for almost three years, so like, I don't ever think
• 20:35
  Speaker 5: it's about the public more than it's about the home.
• 20:38
  Speaker 5: Like what's what's happening at home is way more important
• 20:40
  Speaker 5: than what's happening in public.
• 20:41
  Speaker 7: I wanna say, you don't really have a choice either,
• 20:45
  Speaker 7: like you well, in your last relationship, I know where we.
• 20:49
  Speaker 5: Had a choice. I think we we put it out there.
• 20:51
  Speaker 7: But and then he got he wrapped about you. Yeah,
• 20:58
  Speaker 7: we're going to follow your every back, every single movie
• 21:00
  Speaker 7: you made. If y'all were even sitting in the same room,
• 21:02
  Speaker 7: it was a story, like you know what I mean,
• 21:04
  Speaker 7: Like before you guys came out. So that's what I
• 21:06
  Speaker 7: mean by I don't know if you really had the choice.
• 21:08
  Speaker 5: I think we still had a choice I think any
• 21:10
  Speaker 5: relationship you want, you could make it private if you
• 21:12
  Speaker 5: really want to. There's just a certain way to move.
• 21:14
  Speaker 8: What was the choice to make it public then?
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: Like?
• 21:15
  Speaker 5: Why? I mean because we was with each other. If
• 21:18
  Speaker 5: I'm with you every day, like I'm with you, you don't
• 21:20
  Speaker 5: see me next to him, you know what I'm saying, Like,
• 21:22
  Speaker 5: it's like it's public. And I've been rapping about this
• 21:24
  Speaker 5: girl when I and I got her look.
• 21:26
  Speaker 6: So I know it was like and she sounded like
• 21:28
  Speaker 6: gorilla now, So that was really confused.
• 21:33
  Speaker 5: Because now everyone is like, oh, you don't have the
• 21:35
  Speaker 5: accent anymore. I'm like, bro, I think if you're around
• 21:37
  Speaker 5: someone every day, you naturally you start looking like them,
• 21:43
  Speaker 5: standing like them, like it just becomes a thing. But
• 21:45
  Speaker 5: I couldn't help it. If I'm talking to someone every
• 21:47
  Speaker 5: day with that accent, it's a heavy accent. It just
• 21:50
  Speaker 5: I wasn't trying, Like I was literally flowing out my mouth.
• 21:54
  Speaker 4: How do you protect your peace while still being open to.
• 21:57
  Speaker 5: Love by straying away if it seems like it's not
• 22:01
  Speaker 5: about to be peaceful, like to me, Like I think,
• 22:04
  Speaker 5: if you start talking to someone and it seems like
• 22:07
  Speaker 5: it's gonna be a little chaos, or they got too
• 22:08
  Speaker 5: much going on and they're not like really like working
• 22:11
  Speaker 5: on themselves. I got to hit the brakes, like you
• 22:13
  Speaker 5: got that. If you're not ready, leave me alone, because
• 22:15
  Speaker 5: I'm peaceful and I like what I got, you know
• 22:18
  Speaker 5: what I mean? So I just stay away from it.
• 22:20
  Speaker 6: That from a lot of my homegirls, they'd be like,
• 22:21
  Speaker 6: I can't even date a man if he's not doing
• 22:24
  Speaker 6: the work.
• 22:25
  Speaker 4: On himself because.
• 22:28
  Speaker 5: Like how you healing and fixing yourself, and then you
• 22:30
  Speaker 5: come into a man's life and he's like, nah, not interested, bruh,
• 22:33
  Speaker 5: Like if you're not gonna heal yourself, Like, I don't
• 22:35
  Speaker 5: want to be a part of that, you know, Like
• 22:37
  Speaker 5: I only want to evolve, So how can I be
• 22:39
  Speaker 5: evolving and you just you staying right there? That don't
• 22:42
  Speaker 5: make sense.
• 22:42
  Speaker 7: When you were talking to Ajie Martinez, you said that
• 22:44
  Speaker 7: you and Goddy's breakup wasn't your choice, but it was necessary.
• 22:47
  Speaker 8: Was that one of the reasons why was he not
• 22:49
  Speaker 8: where you were healing? Wise?
• 22:50
  Speaker 5: Nah, I think that Dad has nothing to do with it.
• 22:52
  Speaker 5: I think you know it was what it was. I have.
• 22:56
  Speaker 5: I really care about him and his family, so I
• 22:58
  Speaker 5: really don't talk too much about all that. But no,
• 23:01
  Speaker 5: I just it was just it just made sense at
• 23:04
  Speaker 5: the time for what it was.
• 23:06
  Speaker 7: So what about now, like, would you do a very
• 23:09
  Speaker 7: big public relationship now or would you like, how are
• 23:11
  Speaker 7: you walking that?
• 23:14
  Speaker 5: That's what I was, but I want you now you
• 23:19
  Speaker 5: can see in the future.
• 23:20
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean because there a little bit it's I
• 23:24
  Speaker 7: could go away, but then you bring it back.
• 23:26
  Speaker 5: So I am open to my destiny. I don't speak
• 23:29
  Speaker 5: on what I will or won't do, because then you
• 23:30
  Speaker 5: be an idiot. You come back and see this like, oh,
• 23:33
  Speaker 5: you said never, Like I never say never. I'm a
• 23:35
  Speaker 5: never saying every person though I learned that once I
• 23:37
  Speaker 5: got pregnant. I said, I'm never saying never again. You
• 23:40
  Speaker 5: just never say never. That's all.
• 23:43
  Speaker 4: Mom still super cool.
• 23:44
  Speaker 5: I love his whole family. They're amazing. They're amazing family,
• 23:47
  Speaker 5: They're really good people.
• 23:51
  Speaker 4: Mom is still cool. Okay, you can tell.
• 23:53
  Speaker 7: About how you talk about the situation though that there's
• 23:55
  Speaker 7: still a lot of love there.
• 23:56
  Speaker 5: I have high respects anybody. I don't. I'm not even personal.
• 24:00
  Speaker 5: Like if I stopped dealing with a person, I guarantee
• 24:03
  Speaker 5: they have a problem with me because I'm not. I
• 24:04
  Speaker 5: don't leave bitter. I don't care. I'm gonna go work
• 24:07
  Speaker 5: on myself peace and I leave in peace, literally like
• 24:10
  Speaker 5: I'm not that girl, and I've never been and never
• 24:12
  Speaker 5: will be. So so you're not opposed to spending the
• 24:15
  Speaker 5: block God's destiny. I'm always open to what's destined for me. Okay,
• 24:20
  Speaker 5: you know it's the political answer any other questions.
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: Yes, I was just saying because I usually hit you
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: like the lawyer. So back to my original for me.
• 24:29
  Speaker 5: The thing is, I just want what's for me absolutely,
• 24:31
  Speaker 5: and you never know. You never know what I can't
• 24:34
  Speaker 5: c Can you speak to me?
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: That's a good person. The friend is always the new love.
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: I want the new.
• 24:42
  Speaker 5: Love, but just new love and new life. So are
• 24:48
  Speaker 5: you opposed to new love?
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: I'm ready?
• 24:51
  Speaker 5: Yes, all right, I'm dating. I'm dating means that I'm
• 24:58
  Speaker 5: open to dates and I have taken dates. Yeah. I
• 25:03
  Speaker 5: like I like love. So am I open to love
• 25:06
  Speaker 5: and being in a relationship right now? Yeah, as long
• 25:09
  Speaker 5: as they're not like holding me back or anything like
• 25:11
  Speaker 5: let me be me.
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: A rapper? All right?
• 25:16
  Speaker 4: Rapper?
• 25:18
  Speaker 5: Again, you can't say no, I'm not necessarily looking necessarily
• 25:23
  Speaker 5: for a rapper. I wasn't looking for a rapper when
• 25:25
  Speaker 5: I wanted it up with a rapper, but we just
• 25:28
  Speaker 5: winded up together. But I'm not opposed. I'm like very open.
• 25:32
  Speaker 5: I would consider myself an open type of person.
• 25:34
  Speaker 4: I think does it pique your interest when they mention
• 25:37
  Speaker 4: you in songs?
• 25:38
  Speaker 5: It's interesting, it's flattering, it's cute. If I like the song,
• 25:44
  Speaker 5: I'm a rapper for sure, looks like yeah, I want
• 25:47
  Speaker 5: to know that.
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: If they put your name in a wax on you
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: listed like this one is trash. I don't know why
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: they mentioned my name.
• 25:53
  Speaker 5: I don't know if I've been through that.
• 25:56
  Speaker 4: Do you think real growth comes from pain?
• 26:01
  Speaker 5: Absolutely? You experiencing pain changes you as a person. You're
• 26:06
  Speaker 5: never the same person. That's what I will say. Like
• 26:07
  Speaker 5: after pain, a certain level of pain, you're he's just
• 26:11
  Speaker 5: a new person, Like you're transforming, You're becoming a new person.
• 26:14
  Speaker 5: After that, you look at life differently. It depends on
• 26:17
  Speaker 5: the pain, whether it be grief, whether that be a heartbreak,
• 26:20
  Speaker 5: It changes you. It definitely makes you grow low and
• 26:23
  Speaker 5: look at life in a different in a different like way.
• 26:27
  Speaker 6: What part of your healing journey do you think people
• 26:29
  Speaker 6: don't see and do you even care to shoulder.
• 26:32
  Speaker 5: I don't think they see enough of like the motherhood
• 26:35
  Speaker 5: part for me, because I think that's the part of
• 26:36
  Speaker 5: life I didn't sign up for. Like you don't sign
• 26:39
  Speaker 5: up to be a parent alone, and so like that's
• 26:42
  Speaker 5: constant every day, all day, being a parent, But like
• 26:44
  Speaker 5: when you're doing it on a different in a different
• 26:47
  Speaker 5: way without like a male, that's like you always want
• 26:50
  Speaker 5: to make sure you're doing the right things for especially
• 26:53
  Speaker 5: a young man. You're like, okay, am I doing this
• 26:54
  Speaker 5: right for you? Is this correct? So I would say
• 26:57
  Speaker 5: when it comes to pain, like those are the things
• 27:00
  Speaker 5: people don't see. They don't see a lot of the
• 27:02
  Speaker 5: things like cause, like I've been through a lot and heartbreak. Okay,
• 27:04
  Speaker 5: it's heartbreak, but like dealing with your child who's like
• 27:09
  Speaker 5: constantly and daddy mode and you don't have dad for him,
• 27:11
  Speaker 5: that's grief. Like that's like ongoing grief that you have
• 27:14
  Speaker 5: to just deal with. So to me, that's like a
• 27:17
  Speaker 5: different level of like strength and every day getting up
• 27:20
  Speaker 5: like Okay, we're good, we're gonna do this, you know
• 27:22
  Speaker 5: what I mean?
• 27:22
  Speaker 7: But is it like now because he's nine and y'all
• 27:24
  Speaker 7: are having like such bigger conversations because he has so
• 27:27
  Speaker 7: much more question Yes, how is it dealing with your
• 27:29
  Speaker 7: own grief but also making sure he's kind of protected
• 27:32
  Speaker 7: or healed from his.
• 27:33
  Speaker 5: It's I mean, it's difficult. I'm dealing with his and
• 27:35
  Speaker 5: I deal with that to my best ability, and then
• 27:38
  Speaker 5: I deal with mine, and you know, like the other day,
• 27:40
  Speaker 5: for instance, he wrote me, He's like, uh, I guess
• 27:42
  Speaker 5: his grandfather told him that his dad had afford like
• 27:45
  Speaker 5: one of these big trucks. So he asked me for
• 27:46
  Speaker 5: the pictures, and I'm like, where'd that come from? But
• 27:49
  Speaker 5: he was like, oh, yeah, that's a dope truck. He
• 27:50
  Speaker 5: just naturally had wanted in one of those large trucks
• 27:52
  Speaker 5: with the wheels and all that stuff. But like just
• 27:54
  Speaker 5: even hearing him asking these things is like, oh, like
• 27:57
  Speaker 5: you would have loved your dad, Like y'all were so
• 27:59
  Speaker 5: like similar. But you know, it's just that's a day
• 28:03
  Speaker 5: by day thing. Oh, prayer is everything for me. Like
• 28:07
  Speaker 5: I don't move without prayer. Me and my son. I'm like,
• 28:10
  Speaker 5: check the Bible app did you pray? We pray at night?
• 28:12
  Speaker 5: That's the one thing he's still like getting bed with
• 28:14
  Speaker 5: me and praying me before bad, you know what I mean.
• 28:15
  Speaker 5: But my faith is what keeps me grounding and keeps
• 28:18
  Speaker 5: me like here, Like if I didn't have faith, you
• 28:21
  Speaker 5: would be like, it's God real, Like how am I
• 28:23
  Speaker 5: going through all this? And I'm still okay? But I'm
• 28:26
  Speaker 5: definitely my faith has grounded me and keeps me rooted
• 28:29
  Speaker 5: and like together.
• 28:31
  Speaker 6: Has his father visited him from the other side, m
• 28:34
  Speaker 6: and his father visited him from the other side?
• 28:36
  Speaker 5: Dreams? Probably? Yeah, I mean I feel like maybe Eshay
• 28:39
  Speaker 5: in his dreams, he's he's definitely like you said, at
