Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying, I go crazy with the
2:45
Speaker 3: hot sauce sometimes, Like.
2:47
Speaker 2: You didn't say that, you know the way you.
2:51
Speaker 5: Know, it's one of the things.
2:53
Speaker 1: Saying okay, okay, So take me back to what was
2:57
Speaker 1: going on in the well what air, because I know
3:00
Speaker 1: everyone still eats this right every once in a while.
3:02
Speaker 2: You probably have a late ninety eat this right.
3:04
Speaker 1: Yeah, And so take me back to the beginning era
3:08
Speaker 1: of you with the noodles, where it was a necessity.
3:13
Speaker 5: I will say.
3:16
Speaker 3: Where I start, I'd say like two thousand and fourteen,
3:21
Speaker 3: cause you know I previously talked about like dealing with
3:24
Speaker 3: like mental health issues, and when I started to get
3:28
Speaker 3: my like my mind back, you know, I ended up
3:31
Speaker 3: having like developed mental health issues, like straight out of
3:33
Speaker 3: high school, and it got kind of severely worse around
3:37
Speaker 3: like nineteen and then you know, like I was out
3:39
Speaker 3: of it, like real bad. Like you know when you
3:41
Speaker 3: see like those people walking around aimlessly in the streets.
3:44
Speaker 3: I was like one of those people. But you know,
3:46
Speaker 3: my mom so happened like to catch it early because
3:48
Speaker 3: mental illness runs in my dad's side of the family.
3:51
Speaker 1: When you say mental illness or can you are you
3:53
Speaker 1: comfortable saying like what kind.
3:55
Speaker 3: Because yeah, bipost cause friend I was you, I was
3:58
Speaker 3: diagnosed by post gets a friend. You know, my mom
4:02
Speaker 3: found me home one day and she ended up like
4:05
Speaker 3: three or two in me, like to help me out. Luckily,
4:07
Speaker 3: she really caught it early because the same thing happened
4:10
Speaker 3: with one of my cousins on my dad's side, but
4:13
Speaker 3: she was fourteen, but her mom didn't pay attention to it.
4:16
Speaker 3: And now like to this day, she's like fifty something
4:18
Speaker 3: years old, and you know she needs people to take
4:21
Speaker 3: care of her. That could easily have been me, and
4:23
Speaker 3: my mom didn't catch it early. You know, I like,
4:27
Speaker 3: I give all grace.
4:27
Speaker 5: To my mom.
4:29
Speaker 1: But schizophrenia, I thought that it comes later. No, for
4:33
Speaker 1: some reason, I thought it comes like at like around
4:36
Speaker 1: like early.
4:38
Speaker 5: I think what I think? What does?
4:39
Speaker 3: Like it comes from stress and not talking. You know
4:43
Speaker 3: what I'm saying because like my stepfather, he had died
4:45
Speaker 3: when I was ten years old, and you know, it's
4:48
Speaker 3: like I used to be like a bubbly purse, a
4:49
Speaker 3: little bubbly kid and things like that, and then you
4:52
Speaker 3: know it's like I just became like super mildtone and
4:54
Speaker 3: stopped caring about life.
4:55
Speaker 5: So it's like a ten year old.
4:58
Speaker 3: Yeah, I gave up on life at like ten year
5:00
Speaker 3: years old, but you know, he was my everything. And
5:02
Speaker 3: then like the way he passed, you know, and I
5:05
Speaker 3: didn't get a chance to see him like get buried.
5:09
Speaker 3: So just like all that time, and they know, it's
5:12
Speaker 3: like as you're not yourself no more, so you allow
5:14
Speaker 3: people to bully you and things like that. And you know,
5:18
Speaker 3: but through that whole time, I was drawing. That's all
5:21
Speaker 3: I cared about, you know what I'm saying, Like it
5:23
Speaker 3: got like really bad. Like as soon as like seventh
5:26
Speaker 3: grade came around, they put me like in the LD classes.
5:29
Speaker 3: So I was in there from like all learn disability. Yeah,
5:33
Speaker 3: so they put they put they put you, they put
5:36
Speaker 3: you in they put me in there. But the only
5:37
Speaker 3: thing I kept on doing was just drawing. That was
5:39
Speaker 3: a thing that was like keeping me like going. But
5:41
Speaker 3: you know, but I wasn't talking to nobody. My mom
5:44
Speaker 3: tried to get me talk to therapists and things like that,
5:46
Speaker 3: but it wasn't working. And then you know, all that
5:48
Speaker 3: like accumulated and then boom just blowed at that point
5:52
Speaker 3: and then.
5:53
Speaker 1: Uh, and what was everyone saying about your drawings at
5:55
Speaker 1: the time? Where they were they as great as they were.
5:59
Speaker 3: You know, it's like you know people say like, oh
6:01
Speaker 3: that's cool, Oh draw me. No, people wasn't like really
6:03
Speaker 3: like you know, thinking like too much about it because
6:08
Speaker 3: you know, everybody draws, because it's not like one of
6:10
Speaker 3: those things that people think it's like a career path
6:12
Speaker 3: you can take.
6:13
Speaker 5: You get what I'm saying.
6:13
Speaker 1: Yeah, but some kids, like even I'll see, like I
6:16
Speaker 1: have a three year old, but I'll see like some
6:17
Speaker 1: kids like my daughter, I'm not trying to throw shade,
6:21
Speaker 1: but like I don't think she has like the little artist,
6:23
Speaker 1: but because she just scribbles all over things. But I
6:26
Speaker 1: see some kids where they color in the lines really early,
6:28
Speaker 1: and I'm like, oh.
6:29
Speaker 2: Shit, what's that.
6:31
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I don't know. I just know like
6:34
Speaker 3: from my vibecane, you know, like I grew up in
6:35
Speaker 3: North Philly. I went to Gillespie and then Simon Gratz
6:41
Speaker 3: and then you know, it's like those schools are basically
6:43
Speaker 3: like I can saider them like kind of like prisons
6:46
Speaker 3: that you stay in from you know what I'm saying,
6:47
Speaker 3: from like seven to like three wing and get out.
6:50
Speaker 4: Wow.
6:50
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's why I consider it as at least like
6:52
Speaker 3: for my interpretation of it when I was paying attention.
6:55
Speaker 3: But I just was just drawing, you know what I'm saying,
6:57
Speaker 3: and they know it's like you know, after you know,
7:01
Speaker 3: like the whole incident happened, because I couldn't tell you
7:04
Speaker 3: what I was doing from nineteen to twenty two. The
7:05
Speaker 3: only thing I remember was when I did come to.
7:09
Speaker 3: I woke up on one of those like mentally come
7:13
Speaker 3: trying to like put it in your head visually, because
7:15
Speaker 3: like just imagine nineteenth birthday and then like in the
7:19
Speaker 3: instant and you're blink and then you're on like windows
7:23
Speaker 3: like white buses with all the other mentally challenged people.
7:26
Speaker 3: Oh my god, and I'm looking around trying to figure
7:28
Speaker 3: out what's going on. And then you know, as you know,
7:31
Speaker 3: as I figured out, oh, this is my reality, you know.
7:35
Speaker 3: And then at this point too, I was three hundred
7:36
Speaker 3: pounds because of the medication that kept put me on
7:40
Speaker 3: with all the water weight, and you know that's when
7:45
Speaker 3: you know, drawing was still a thing I was still
7:47
Speaker 3: doing that was keeping me like bringing me slowly together
7:51
Speaker 3: as my mind came back.
7:52
Speaker 5: And also too, you know.
7:53
Speaker 3: I had like good friends like around the way that
7:56
Speaker 3: was always there for me, and that's honestly what brought
8:01
Speaker 3: me back. That's why I'm always like strong on like
8:03
Speaker 3: community and friends, because you know, it's like, if we
8:07
Speaker 3: had more like real people around us, we wouldn't need
8:09
Speaker 3: therapists and things like that. One thing you needed, just
8:11
Speaker 3: somebody to talk to, Like you know, like when you
8:13
Speaker 3: talk to some people, it's like, oh, I don't want
8:15
Speaker 3: to I need to keep my peace. I don't want
8:17
Speaker 3: to have you get to me and things like that,
8:19
Speaker 3: you know, like none to ask niggas like that. You
8:20
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying. It's like, if you have more
8:23
Speaker 3: I know what to talk about. That's so sad, but
8:25
Speaker 3: I do. Yeah, yeah, you know what I'm saying, Cause
8:27
Speaker 3: it's like those ain't like real like people. You know,
8:29
Speaker 3: they're like people at the moment. They won't be around
8:31
Speaker 3: forever anyway. But it's like, if people have more people
8:34
Speaker 3: like that, you know what I'm saying, It's like we
8:35
Speaker 3: wouldn't need therapists and things like that.
8:37
Speaker 5: Always give a salute to John j R.
8:40
Speaker 3: Alvin Daryl Reggie, you know, of course, my mom, you
8:45
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying, and you always give them salot
8:48
Speaker 3: and then you know as we come to this, you know,
8:51
Speaker 3: I was like eating you know what I'm saying, eating
8:53
Speaker 3: cup noodles a lot while I draw. You know, it's
8:56
Speaker 3: like it was just quick to make you know what
8:58
Speaker 3: I'm saying, while I just stay on my computer.
9:01
Speaker 5: And just draw.
9:02
Speaker 3: So yeah, and that's what kept That's what kept me going.
9:06
Speaker 3: That's why this is so like monumental to me, because
9:09
Speaker 3: I didn't, like necessary grow up in a bad household
9:11
Speaker 3: my mom, you know what I'm saying. She, you know,
9:13
Speaker 3: worked he stuff to death basically to like keep me comfortable.
9:18
Speaker 2: Did you have any other siblings or just.
9:20
Speaker 5: No, only child?
9:21
Speaker 3: I got a half brother and half sister, but I
9:23
Speaker 3: don't I don't really speak with them.
9:25
Speaker 2: Okay, are they older? Yeah, big age gap, age gap.
9:29
Speaker 1: Okay, so your mom's like a single mom after your dad?
9:33
Speaker 3: Yeah, my my, but then my uh my real father.
9:37
Speaker 3: He came into my life like around thirteen, but he
9:39
Speaker 3: didn't make things better. He made things worse. He just
9:41
Speaker 3: passed this year. You know, I love him, but you
9:44
Speaker 3: know it's like you know, alcohol and everything else. You
9:48
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying, Like, you love that more than
9:51
Speaker 3: you know you loved your own son. So I don't know.
9:55
Speaker 2: So did you ever tell him that.
9:57
Speaker 3: I mean, it's only so much you can talk to
9:58
Speaker 3: a person, you know. I don't know, It's just it's
10:03
Speaker 3: just a sad thought one just like think about that.
10:04
Speaker 3: But yeah, even even back then, when I think about
10:07
Speaker 3: it now, I was like eating cup noodles then, like
10:10
Speaker 3: when he would like leave me in the apartment to go,
10:13
Speaker 3: Like I remember one one night we were near a
10:16
Speaker 3: supermarket and he had like a forty ounce and I
10:18
Speaker 3: was like probably twelve or thirteen, and you know, I
10:21
Speaker 3: didn't wanted to drink. So you know, it's like when
10:23
Speaker 3: he went into the supermarket, I grabbed a bottle and
10:25
Speaker 3: then put it out on the not I didn't throw
10:28
Speaker 3: it out by just like rolled it out of the
10:29
Speaker 3: car because you know, I didn't want to have it
10:31
Speaker 3: make a lot of noise. And then we came back
10:33
Speaker 3: to the apartment. He made me cup noodles, and then
10:36
Speaker 3: he couldn't find it, and then he left me in
10:38
Speaker 3: the apartment for hours on end, looking looking for his
10:43
Speaker 3: looking for his bottles.
10:45
Speaker 2: Wow. Yeah, and during all this you're still drawing.
10:49
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, so you get out, let's be so what
10:53
Speaker 1: what age do you get out? Of the mental Uh,
10:56
Speaker 1: twenty two twenty two, okay, and what year is this?
11:03
Speaker 5: I think I think twenty twelve.
11:06
Speaker 1: Twenty twelve, so between twenty twelve because I found out
11:10
Speaker 1: about you probably like on the cusp of the pandemic, right, yeah,
11:14
Speaker 1: which obviously you've been rolling. But when did you start
11:16
Speaker 1: seeing like an uptick in your.
11:18
Speaker 3: Art two twenty thirteen, two thousand.
11:28
Speaker 2: Oh you started posting it that?
11:30
Speaker 4: That?
11:30
Speaker 3: Yeah, I started. I started out. I started on Facebook
11:33
Speaker 3: because like there was a guy that discovered me on
11:35
Speaker 3: Facebook and then was Trizzy the Mouth. It was like
11:38
Speaker 3: one of my first managers. Like, you know, he's a
11:40
Speaker 3: real good guy. You taught me like how to you know, uh,
11:46
Speaker 3: real people in with the art. So just like its
11:49
Speaker 3: first time me saying this, but it's like all right,
11:54
Speaker 3: say it.
11:58
Speaker 5: All right.
11:58
Speaker 3: So it's like the way I do my art is
12:00
Speaker 3: like how a pimp reals in women. I'm so I'm
12:05
Speaker 3: being by being dead serious. I'm being dead serious. I'm
12:09
Speaker 3: being I'm being dead serious because this is the way
12:10
Speaker 3: I was. It's like you get get them, you get
12:15
Speaker 3: them comfortable, you know what I'm saying, and then like
12:17
Speaker 3: once you get them to a certain point, then you
12:20
Speaker 3: can start asking for favors and things like that. You know,
12:25
Speaker 3: like I'm like a manipulator. But you know, the only
12:27
Speaker 3: reason I gave that example because I was around people
12:29
Speaker 3: like that, And that's the best example I can give
12:32
Speaker 3: right right now off top of hip.
12:36
Speaker 1: Well, I guess if your father was also like in addiction,
12:39
Speaker 1: I'm pretty are manipulation, you know, Like.
12:42
Speaker 3: You know, I grew up in like North Philly hang
12:44
Speaker 3: out like a whole bunch of like different characters, you
12:46
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying. So just like it's just a
12:48
Speaker 3: whole people I don't hang out with now because like
12:51
Speaker 3: you know, those people only like last for a certain
12:53
Speaker 3: period of time, you know what I'm saying. You know,
12:55
Speaker 3: It's like I known people that got killed all types
12:58
Speaker 3: of all types of ship like that you saying. That's
13:00
Speaker 3: why it's like, you know, it's like you know, it's
13:03
Speaker 3: like it's a lot of those things like motivates to like,
13:06
Speaker 3: all right, I don't want to be around these people.
13:08
Speaker 3: I just want to just draw and you know, and
13:12
Speaker 3: that's when I started, like you know, posting things on Facebook.
13:15
Speaker 3: And then like I said, it's like I started learning
13:16
Speaker 3: like okay, Like okay, I understand Oh, like this makes
13:20
Speaker 3: people react like this, This makes people react like that.
13:22
Speaker 3: So you know, a lot is like trial and error,
13:24
Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying. Then while like you know,
13:26
Speaker 3: like understanding like oh, you need a team of people
13:28
Speaker 3: to help out, and you know, like he put that
13:31
Speaker 3: mindset in my heads, like you know, you need a
13:32
Speaker 3: team of people to do things, you know what I'm saying.
13:35
Speaker 1: And you know what kind of things was he talking
13:38
Speaker 1: about just on the management side, because he was trying
13:40
Speaker 1: to manage you or.
13:41
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yes he was because like he was
13:43
Speaker 3: he wasn't manager for a period of time. But it's
13:47
Speaker 3: just like try on error, you know what I'm saying.
13:51
Speaker 3: That's really about it. Just try and error until you
13:55
Speaker 3: just figure things out, you know what I'm saying, because
13:57
Speaker 3: like I don't know, it's hard, it's hard to it's
14:00
Speaker 3: like really just trying to error to figure out what.
14:01
Speaker 5: People want, you know, get feedback.
14:03
Speaker 1: From people you're like paying attention to, like the numbers,
14:06
Speaker 1: the comments everything.
14:07
Speaker 3: Yeah, and then that's when I started to develop like
14:09
Speaker 3: a business mind. So but you know the issue is
14:12
Speaker 3: with that when you like developing a business mind and
14:14
Speaker 3: then you're also creative and start to clash. Like after
14:17
Speaker 3: a while, you start to think too much about a
14:19
Speaker 3: lot of things, and then you know you also learn
14:22
Speaker 3: like who to trust and not to trust when you
14:24
Speaker 3: send things out to people. So like, well this around,
14:26
Speaker 3: like I think twenty fifteen, I think I was like
14:30
Speaker 3: really into like you know, asking people, hey, what you think,
14:32
Speaker 3: what you think? What you think, and then for.
14:34
Speaker 2: You before you post or yeah, before I post.
14:37
Speaker 3: But then I stopped doing that, like stop being so
14:39
Speaker 3: trusting in people because I started getting like a bad
14:43
Speaker 3: name about myself, like on the internet, because all right,
14:47
Speaker 3: boom right. So I was doing this drawing of there
14:50
Speaker 3: was a topic drawing. I like doing topic drawings or
14:52
Speaker 3: like real stuff. So you know, it's like it was
14:54
Speaker 3: like a simple thing.
14:54
Speaker 4: You know.
14:55
Speaker 3: It's like you see like some parents like they brag
14:56
Speaker 3: about like yo, oh my kid can do this and
14:59
Speaker 3: that when they're baby, you know what I'm saying, but
15:01
Speaker 3: then like they're trying to growing up and just like
15:04
Speaker 3: just be like.
15:06
Speaker 5: Just a nobody.
15:08
Speaker 3: Yeah, but the drawing wasn't done and the person put
15:11
Speaker 3: me out there to.
15:12
Speaker 5: Be a colorist for whatever reason.
15:15
Speaker 3: Yeah, So that's why I just stopped like sharing things
15:17
Speaker 3: with people for something that's done, and then it got
15:20
Speaker 3: like real bad on Twitter and people will start this
15:24
Speaker 3: when you start like understanding like how people try to
15:26
Speaker 3: cancel people, Yeah, and it's like try to separate. Oh
15:29
Speaker 3: he puts light skinned women in this light and put
15:31
Speaker 3: dark skinned women in dislight.
15:32
Speaker 5: It was like it was real bad.
15:33
Speaker 3: It was like you know, normally on the internet like
15:35
Speaker 3: things like last like three days a week back, this
15:38
Speaker 3: lasts like for a whole month.
15:39
Speaker 5: It was real. It was real bad.
15:41
Speaker 2: And then how do you react when you see those
15:42
Speaker 2: negative comments? Do you do? You do you internalize them?
15:45
Speaker 3: Or when you first start dealing with that Because I'm
15:48
Speaker 3: a type of person things don't bother me. But it's
15:50
Speaker 3: like when it's constantly in your face over and over
15:52
Speaker 3: and over, it will start to get to you. And
15:54
Speaker 3: you know that is what and from what from something
15:58
Speaker 3: like that happened to me that inspired me, like to
15:59
Speaker 3: me my first character Kayla, Kayla.
16:03
Speaker 4: Kyla.
16:17
Speaker 2: Kyla.
16:18
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, I got into that and I like that
16:22
Speaker 1: pivot there. I like that pivot. So you get into Kaylea.
16:25
Speaker 1: But now we're in twenty twenty four and you're just
16:27
Speaker 1: now are you just now releasing Kayla?
16:30
Speaker 4: Right?
16:30
Speaker 3: Now, No, I've been I've been putting I've been putting
16:31
Speaker 3: the character out since two thousand and nineteen.
16:36
Speaker 5: But you know, I was like slowly working on it.
16:38
Speaker 5: You know.
16:38
Speaker 3: It's like I'm a kind of perfectionist in a way.
16:40
Speaker 4: You know.
16:40
Speaker 3: It's like I said, like the business mind, I want
16:42
Speaker 3: to know, okay, what works for this and that. You
16:45
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying, a lot of times you only
16:46
Speaker 3: got like the first impression. Yeah, a lot of times
16:49
Speaker 3: we don't get a lot of do overs. So like
16:51
Speaker 3: to go into like explain Kayla. You know, it's like
16:53
Speaker 3: it's made for like people that love manga and anime,
16:56
Speaker 3: so something like specific like she's meant for the showing
16:59
Speaker 3: and jump like demographic. And then I say, like the
17:03
Speaker 3: shownan jump demographic basically shown jump means like comics for
17:08
Speaker 3: teenage boys in Japanese basically, And you know, when I
17:12
Speaker 3: see you online, you know, everybody loves the moon docks
17:14
Speaker 3: and things like that, you know, and I was like
17:18
Speaker 3: the only thing, what's the last thing we had was
17:20
Speaker 3: the Boon docks. I'm like, all right, let me just
17:21
Speaker 3: make something like that. And my first showed Kayla to
17:26
Speaker 3: Charlemagne and what did he think he liked it? But
17:32
Speaker 3: you know, it's like it just I guess it just
17:34
Speaker 3: wasn't ready, so so, you know, and then after a while,
17:38
Speaker 3: like around the pandemic, I decided like, or I'll just
17:40
Speaker 3: start like making books, you know, making chapters. I felt
17:44
Speaker 3: nineteen chapters through the course of like a year or two.
17:48
Speaker 3: And when I felt the first chapter, NBC reached out
17:53
Speaker 3: to me. Complex the Complex website, uh, Netflix, this animation
18:03
Speaker 3: studio called Powerhouse that made he Man in Castlevania, And.
18:08
Speaker 2: What are you thinking when they're reaching out to you?
18:11
Speaker 3: It was it was, it was, it was amazing. But
18:14
Speaker 3: then like you start to realize, like you start understanding
18:17
Speaker 3: like this field, it's like people will reach out to you,
18:20
Speaker 3: but not like to immediately help you out there, just
18:22
Speaker 3: want to wait and see, you know. And that's like
18:25
Speaker 3: and then you know, like once you get into like
18:27
Speaker 3: things like that, you know, it's like.
18:31
Speaker 5: You questioned it at first. It's like it's my.
18:33
Speaker 3: Stuff not good, it's not good enough, Like what's it missing?
18:36
Speaker 3: It's like just people just waiting for something to happen,
18:39
Speaker 3: to reach to you. Were they even giving you direction though?
18:42
Speaker 3: When they're waiting, No, it's like I even talked to
18:45
Speaker 3: like one of the creators of the moon Docks. It
18:48
Speaker 3: was like that that was a that was a high
18:50
Speaker 3: for me other than like I mean, I mean, I mean,
18:54
Speaker 3: I had multiple highs. I did animated commercial Italian what
18:58
Speaker 3: was it? Italian commercial? He has a Titian amate commercial
19:01
Speaker 3: for McDonald's. I did the Breakfast Club art studio.
19:04
Speaker 1: Then backtrack, how did you end up first crossing past
19:07
Speaker 1: with Charlotte Magne.
19:09
Speaker 3: He was following me for a little bit and then
19:11
Speaker 3: I put out this drawing called Dice Game. And then
19:14
Speaker 3: once Dice Game came out, Charlomagne shared it, but he
19:17
Speaker 3: shared it in a sarcastic way. But you know, when
19:18
Speaker 3: you're reading sarcasm, you think somebody's really angry about it
19:22
Speaker 3: type shit, you know what I'm saying. And then it's
19:24
Speaker 3: up spreading around. And then Donald Glover in the reaching
19:27
Speaker 3: out to me and he ended up putting I mean
19:30
Speaker 3: it's people did, and then he ended up putting it
19:32
Speaker 3: on Atlanta. Yeah, the art working up on Atlanta, and
19:36
Speaker 3: then he asked me to like work on feel Like
19:38
Speaker 3: Summer Video and that was my first like job that
19:40
Speaker 3: like you know, started everything.
19:44

20:07
Speaker 3: the funk.
20:07
Speaker 2: Out over the girl.
20:09
Speaker 5: She was yelling at me and all that she had
20:11
Speaker 5: anger issues.
20:12
Speaker 2: That's hilarious.
20:13
Speaker 3: Yeah, I loved it though, but that's all I always
20:15

20:39
Speaker 1: to be when you get that call.
20:43
Speaker 5: I don't know, it's kind of weird to say.
20:44
Speaker 3: It's like, I don't really get too excited about a
20:46
Speaker 3: lot of things because those prior things I told you about,
20:48
Speaker 3: So you know what I'm saying, Like I believe it
20:50
Speaker 3: wants to start. And then once he paid me, like
20:52
Speaker 3: my first half, I was like, oh shit, this is
20:54
Speaker 3: a thing.
20:54
Speaker 2: And this was like even when you got the contract before,
20:57
Speaker 2: you weren't.
20:57
Speaker 3: Like you know, people give you contracts and then like
21:01

Speaker 3: for the not just like one angle, a couple of
21:44
Speaker 3: angles too. That was like vicious crazy, yeah, all on
21:48
Speaker 3: all on paper. I think that was like when when
21:50
Speaker 3: that bio came out two thousand and eight, So yeah,
21:52
Speaker 3: two thousand eighteen eighteen. It was like really the last
21:55
Speaker 3: time I really drew on paper like that before I

22:23
Speaker 3: Like you know, I end up getting discovered by a
22:25
Speaker 3: manager off of Facebook of all that is like I
22:27
Speaker 3: would never known that. Like people want paid me money
22:29
Speaker 3: to do these things, like it's a blessing. It's like
22:31
Speaker 3: this is myself.
22:32
Speaker 2: Was the check looking like if you don't mind.
22:34
Speaker 3: It was, I got paid eight thousand dollars. That was first,
22:36
Speaker 3: Like that was like my first big check. But then
22:39
Speaker 3: like the thing that came from it though, is like
22:40
Speaker 3: people think that you're rich off of doing just like
22:42
Speaker 3: one thing like that was the weird thing.
22:46
Speaker 2: And you had a manager then uh, why I mean you.
22:50
Speaker 5: Make eighteen This was privately. Yeah, it was right before.
22:55
Speaker 3: That was right before I met him, and uh, but
23:00
Speaker 3: the biggest thing I took away from that once I did,
23:02
Speaker 3: like meet meet him, like, I do multiple things.
23:05
Speaker 5: You know, I write. You know what I'm saying, Like,
23:08
Speaker 5: I literally, I literally do like everything.
23:10
Speaker 3: You're a great writer too, Yeah, thank you, and you
23:13
Speaker 3: know because he does a lot of things too. And uh,
23:17
Speaker 3: when I went backstage to talk to him about that,
23:19
Speaker 3: he just told me this is the biggest advice. I
23:21
Speaker 3: didn't believe him at the time, but now I understand.
23:23
Speaker 3: You just said, do it work for you, like in
23:25
Speaker 3: the moment, and then once it slows down, go on
23:27
Speaker 3: to the other things. I didn't understand that at first.
23:30
Speaker 2: It was like Don Glover, OK, yeah, okay, that's good advice.
23:34
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I didn't believe him at first. I was
23:36
Speaker 3: like him, like, nah, like that, that can't be true.
23:39
Speaker 3: You can do everything, but no, you eventually have burnout.
23:42
Speaker 3: So so yeah, so you do the project. Did you
23:45
Speaker 3: end up getting any burnout?
23:47
Speaker 4: No?
23:48
Speaker 3: Like, because I was like, I was on ten because
23:51
Speaker 3: after that, you know, that's when I met Charlotmagne and
23:54
Speaker 3: then I got to be on the Brilliant Idiots twice.
23:56
Speaker 3: That was that was a big thing twice, and I
23:59
Speaker 3: got like like one of the biggest moments on uh
24:04
Speaker 3: when I first went on there, because I just be saying,
24:05
Speaker 3: like there's anything out of my mouth for like a
24:07
Speaker 3: lot of times, especially like when you get like moments
24:09
Speaker 3: like that, it's like, oh, I'm probably not gonna have
24:11
Speaker 3: another chance. Let me just say some nuts ship just
24:13
Speaker 3: like just to get people talking, because it's one thing
24:15
Speaker 3: I know I do. I know I get people's attention.
24:17
Speaker 3: So I'm like, all right, let me just do that.
24:19
Speaker 3: I know, like people work type I'm saying. And then yeah,
24:23
Speaker 3: every and then after that, everything start to like pile on.
24:26
Speaker 3: Like I said, like I did like a lot of jobs.
24:29
Speaker 3: I did something for Tree songs like and make commercial
24:31
Speaker 3: trade song, did something for Bobby's murder, even even like
24:35
Speaker 3: till now, like doing something for a new balance the army, and.
24:43
Speaker 1: They're reaching out. I'm is your manager working the phones
24:47
Speaker 1: NonStop too.
24:48
Speaker 3: But of course but then also too, they just naturally
24:52
Speaker 3: reached out to me because I put out product that
24:54
Speaker 3: people you know what I'm saying.
24:56
Speaker 5: And now right now I'm in.
24:57
Speaker 3: The point in my life where it's like I'm trying
24:59
Speaker 3: to package it because you know my end goals, I
25:01
Speaker 3: want my own movie studio. Okay, yeah, so that's what
25:05
Speaker 3: I really want.
25:06
Speaker 5: So it's like right now, it's a pivotal time.
25:07
Speaker 3: That's why I like my character Kla is so important
25:09
Speaker 3: because trying to show that I know how to make
25:12
Speaker 3: products that people want to buy. Like I said, I
25:14
Speaker 3: put out nineteen chapters like during the pandemic through that
25:17
Speaker 3: whole year, Like I said, all those people reached out
25:19
Speaker 3: to me in the beginning, you know what I'm saying.
25:21
Speaker 5: So I did that first.
25:23
Speaker 3: So it's like once I start doing the animations, like
25:25
Speaker 3: people have like things so they can get hooked on,
25:27
Speaker 3: and then you know, her following start to go up
25:29
Speaker 3: because she has seventy thousand followers on Instagram almost ten
25:33
Speaker 3: thousand one TikTok and like a lot of stuff go viral.
25:37
Speaker 5: Like you know what I'm saying. I love it.
25:39
Speaker 4: You know.
25:39
Speaker 3: It's like my whole thing is like I really want,
25:41
Speaker 3: like you know, black girls to be like represented in
25:44
Speaker 3: that field authentically. That's why I came in authentically with
25:47
Speaker 3: buying on authentically.
25:51
Speaker 2: Let's see if the is soft.
25:57
Speaker 3: There's another reason for that too, because like last month.
26:02
Speaker 3: It was like, basedly the worst month of my life
26:05
Speaker 3: honestly because uh, I started so I don't know the
26:14
Speaker 3: best way to put this. So I started developing heart problems.
26:16
Speaker 2: I seen that online, like a little bit of it.
26:19
Speaker 1: I was scrolling why this will affect it?
26:23
Speaker 5: Mm hmm.
26:24
Speaker 1: No.
26:25
Speaker 3: But it's my first time like touching it in like
26:27
Speaker 3: a couple of months, which is sad. Made me sad
26:30
Speaker 3: because so I ran to my ex recently. She wanted
26:35
Speaker 3: to meet up with me. Yeah, I was no, no,
26:38
Speaker 3: and you know, I was relucted. I was reluctant at first.
26:40
Speaker 3: It's like, why do you want to meet up with me?
26:42
Speaker 3: And like all right, and then we and then we're
26:44
Speaker 3: chilling by the closure, yeah, by the art museum and
26:47
Speaker 3: Philly type type time you I'm saying. She gave me
26:50
Speaker 3: a hug, right, and she was like, oh, like your
26:52
Speaker 3: heart is beating fast. You must miss me. I'm like,
26:54
Speaker 3: we're talking about.
26:56
Speaker 2: And then your stories are good?
26:58
Speaker 3: Yeah, And then the next day and then next day,
27:00
Speaker 3: you know, I started feeling like these hard ass heart
27:03
Speaker 3: I never noticed my heart beat before. It's like boom boom,
27:06
Speaker 3: like it's feeling beating out my chest. Yeah, and then
27:10
Speaker 3: you know, I said up, I ended up going to
27:11
Speaker 3: the doctor, and then he ended up telling me go
27:14
Speaker 3: to like the ear nose and throat doctor, and you know,
27:16
Speaker 3: I go to the you know, do the cat scans
27:18
Speaker 3: or whatever the heart layer on in the month type ship.
27:22
Speaker 3: And then you know, I go to ear nose and
27:23
Speaker 3: throw doctor. I've been hearing like a posting sound in
27:25
Speaker 3: my in my left ear. So I ended up finding
27:27
Speaker 3: out that I ended up losing like slight hearing loss
27:29
Speaker 3: in my left ear. You know, I hear the heart
27:32
Speaker 3: beat sound in my left ear. And then I went
27:34
Speaker 3: to the you know, after I next went to the
27:37
Speaker 3: throat doctors opened up my mouth. The nurse went like
27:39
Speaker 3: oh wow, and then immediately brung in the doctor and
27:42
Speaker 3: the other nurses and I had like a uh, I
27:46
Speaker 3: don't know I was called, but was like I think
27:47
Speaker 3: a pulp or something like that. It's like a little
27:50
Speaker 3: ball like being back in your mouth. And you know,
27:53
Speaker 3: he was being like really nonchalant about it. It was like
27:55
Speaker 3: kind of weird, and he's like, you know, we can
27:57
Speaker 3: cut it out if you want, but we don't.
27:58
Speaker 5: You know what I'm saying, it's up to you. I
28:00
Speaker 5: was like just cut it out and then cut.
28:02
Speaker 3: It out and and then a couple of days later,
28:08
Speaker 3: That's why I made my posts. So I thought like
28:11
Speaker 3: my mouth was dry when I was waking up, but
28:14
Speaker 3: then end up going to the bathroom and to find
28:16
Speaker 3: out like my mouth was like.
28:17
Speaker 2: Full on black.
28:19
Speaker 3: That's how much blood was like coming out of my mouth.
28:21
Speaker 5: And then I got rushed to the er.
28:23
Speaker 3: Yeah, because the wound had like bust open and from
28:26
Speaker 3: them cutting it out. No, this was a couple days
28:28
Speaker 3: after it was healing. I wasn't allowed to eat anything.
28:31
Speaker 3: So this whole so like this whole month just passed
28:34
Speaker 3: like like I couldn't eat solid food or nothing like
28:37
Speaker 3: that type. And then you know, it took them from
28:41
Speaker 3: like whether it was like six in the morning until
28:43
Speaker 3: three pm for them to stop the bleeding. But this
28:45
Speaker 3: whole time, you know, my mom was there with me.
28:47
Speaker 3: My whole right side was turning cold. The security guard
28:51
Speaker 3: at the hospital kept on trying to get me to
28:52
Speaker 3: sit down, kept on telling like, no, if I sit down,
28:54
Speaker 3: I'm not waking up. And that was right because when
28:57
Speaker 3: the nurses came into the drawing the sea me. So
29:00
Speaker 3: I sat down, my head was like like that type
29:03
Speaker 3: ship like kep going up, like because I lost a
29:07
Speaker 3: lot of blood. Jesus, yeah, I lost I lost a lot.
29:10
Speaker 2: So it's like your first real Yeah, it was.
29:12
Speaker 5: Like a first real scare.
29:13
Speaker 3: I mean think about you can say technically, because you know,
29:16
Speaker 3: the mental health stuff happened early on and then this
29:18
Speaker 3: next and then you.
29:19
Speaker 5: Know, it's like I went back up.
29:21
Speaker 3: You know, they finished, they fixed everything, you know what
29:24
Speaker 3: I'm saying, got the bleeding and stopping all that, and
29:27
Speaker 3: then you know, I ended up going back to you know,
29:29
Speaker 3: the doctor next week, told them about it and things
29:31
Speaker 3: like that, and it's like, oh, that's not supposed to happen. Like, no, ship,
29:33
Speaker 3: that's not supposed to fucking happen, dickad you know what
29:36
Speaker 3: I'm saying. But but yeah, and then he's gonna drop
29:40
Speaker 3: a bombshell on me. Oh yeah, so tests came back
29:43
Speaker 3: you don't got cancer, and like cancer, Like, how you
29:45
Speaker 3: gonna leave that away from somebody, you know what I'm saying,
29:47
Speaker 3: at least tell me about it.
29:50
Speaker 2: What did they say?
29:51
Speaker 3: It was basically from something like that. It's like that's
29:55
Speaker 3: how basically cancer would start, oh through mouth, like with
29:58
Speaker 3: that pulp in the back of your mouth.
30:00
Speaker 5: Yeah.
30:00
Speaker 3: So I always tell everybody just go to the doctor's
30:02
Speaker 3: type time. You know what I'm saying, because you never know. Yeah,
30:05
Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying.
30:06
Speaker 1: So is this your first official like meal from drinking
30:09
Speaker 1: slurpees or something?
30:10
Speaker 5: No?
30:10
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, no milkshakes, no, no no, because
30:13
Speaker 3: it's like it's still it's still a lot going on.
30:15
Speaker 3: Because then like after after that, went to the heart
30:18
Speaker 3: doctor and the final out, I got like heart pomplitation something,
30:21
Speaker 3: so it's like rapidly start beating type ship and then
30:24
Speaker 3: he heard like a clicking sound there. So I still
30:27
Speaker 3: got to do more testing and things like that and
30:30
Speaker 3: also find out, oh after.
30:32
Speaker 5: All that, oh you got high you got high cholesterol.
30:35
Speaker 3: Now after all that, so it's like the other thing
30:37
Speaker 3: that made me sad because it's like I really can't
30:39
Speaker 3: do what I want to do. So, like you know
30:41
Speaker 3: what I'm saying. So it's like it's like it's really
30:43
Speaker 3: frush straight.
30:45
Speaker 2: You'll fit right in with the vegetable eaters. Yeah, the
30:48
Speaker 2: no salts and sugar people.
30:50
Speaker 5: Don't know y'all do it?
30:51
Speaker 2: Well, I don't do it.
30:53
Speaker 5: I was.
30:53
Speaker 3: I was when I found out that I can't you
30:56
Speaker 3: can't eat this. You can't drink that. I was crying.
30:58
Speaker 3: I was swinging like I got and take this no.
31:01
Speaker 1: More, no need Jesus, we need to have you around.
31:03
Speaker 1: So you better eat all the vegetables and the salads, y'all.
31:07
Speaker 1: I could tell your crew thorough. The manager, he's probably
31:09
Speaker 1: every time you look at a steak, he's probably he's
31:13
Speaker 1: a sad.
31:13
Speaker 2: Here's some oatmeal I pulled.
31:15
Speaker 5: I pulled stick out my back pocket and eat it.
31:18
Speaker 2: Oh no, I don't know. So during this whole, like.
31:23
Speaker 1: This career, were there any dips, like real solid dips
31:27
Speaker 1: in between.
31:28
Speaker 3: I'm currently going through a dip right now.
31:31
Speaker 2: Really.
31:31
Speaker 4: Yeah.
31:32
Speaker 3: So it's like last year I made like one hundred
31:35
Speaker 3: grand through uh commission work. But then AI came around,
31:41
Speaker 3: and that's the big thing that you know, it's like
31:43
Speaker 3: messing up with AI too.
31:45
Speaker 2: Yeah, what happened?
31:46
Speaker 3: What happened?
31:46
Speaker 2: What AI doing to you?
31:48
Speaker 3: You know, people think that like you can do everything
31:51
Speaker 3: through AI, which isn't you know, because you know the
31:54
Speaker 3: way these companies do, they like make everything seem like
31:57
Speaker 3: it's really that way, really isn't you know what I'm saying.
32:00
Speaker 3: And now people starting to come back along and it's
32:02
Speaker 3: like all right, like these things really can't do. And
32:04
Speaker 3: then plus people want that authentic feeling even more.
32:07
Speaker 1: Yeah, how are they going to AI like your level
32:09
Speaker 1: of creativity? Though, I mean, I guess it's I guess
32:14
Speaker 1: it's semi possible, but yeah, you would miss a lot
32:16
Speaker 1: of the authenticity.
32:17
Speaker 5: I mean, it can't. You know what I'm saying. It can't.
32:21
Speaker 3: You're always gonna need that human touch because don't get
32:23
Speaker 3: me wrong, it's like I like AI. I like AI too,
32:26
Speaker 3: but it's saying, but I only use it to like
32:28
Speaker 3: what it's supposed to be used for. It is like
32:30
Speaker 3: a background tool, not something to replace, like say, like
32:32
Speaker 3: if I'm writing a script or something like that, right,
32:34
Speaker 3: I'll uh have it cleaned up for me a script
32:38
Speaker 3: form for I show it to somebody. That's how That's
32:41
Speaker 3: how you're supposed to use it. You know what I'm saying.
32:43
Speaker 3: It's a lot of And then like, man, it's like,
32:47
Speaker 3: so you're saying.
32:48
Speaker 2: Your dip is coming from the AI.
32:50
Speaker 3: It was Now it's picking up. But the thing I
32:53
Speaker 3: was about to go on about AI, the thing that
32:55
Speaker 3: makes it so sad about AI, Like in the creative field,
32:57
Speaker 3: you don't know who's talented.
33:10
Speaker 5: Because people rely on it so much.
33:12
Speaker 3: So say that for example, right, like me, I can
33:15
Speaker 3: come over a concept or something and then draw it
33:18
Speaker 3: out right and show somebody like I'll show like a
33:21
Speaker 3: quick sketch like Okay, this's the example of what you
33:22
Speaker 3: should do, but do it in your way, interpret in
33:25
Speaker 3: your way. But because of AI, a lot of these
33:28
Speaker 3: people can't even do that. They're just literally like because
33:31
Speaker 3: what you can do with AI is like, okay, I'll
33:32
Speaker 3: take a road light sketch of something like it, say like,
33:36
Speaker 3: I'll like make a bullshit image of this room and
33:38
Speaker 3: then you know, put into one of the prompts, type
33:40
Speaker 3: in the prompt and then boom, it'll make it for you. Right,
33:43
Speaker 3: But when it comes to animation, you really can't do that,
33:47
Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying, SEC you do three D
33:49
Speaker 3: or something like that, right, It's like, if I'm asking
33:51
Speaker 3: you to do something that's really like detail oriented, you're
33:53
Speaker 3: not gonna be able to do it because A I
33:55
Speaker 3: don't allow those things like that because AI spew out
33:57
Speaker 3: random images so you so.
34:00
Speaker 1: It's never always it's never even perfect or AI it's
34:02
Speaker 1: not consistent either.
34:03
Speaker 3: Because like it's just taking from things on the why.
34:05
Speaker 1: Your business picking back up. They tried it and they
34:07
Speaker 1: realized it wasn't.
34:08
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, but it's not.
34:09
Speaker 3: It's not just them you're talking about when you're just
34:11
Speaker 3: trying to find the right people to fit your team.
34:13
Speaker 3: So because of that, it makes it harder to find
34:16
Speaker 3: the right people, especially like when you end up like
34:19
Speaker 3: getting a relationship with these people you like them that
34:21
Speaker 3: get in the final Wow, man, like you you're fraud
34:25
Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying.
34:26
Speaker 1: So, like, if you're working with a company and they
34:27
Speaker 1: have their own team, you're working with them, you find
34:30
Speaker 1: out that maybe they're not no, no.
34:31
Speaker 3: No, it's like this okay, So like these companies will
34:34
Speaker 3: reach out to you and they know you got your
34:35
Speaker 3: own team of artists that work with you.
34:37
Speaker 2: Right, so you have your own team, Yeah, I.
34:39
Speaker 5: Got my own team like animators.
34:40
Speaker 3: But the issue is with that, it's like I don't
34:42
Speaker 3: know that they don't use AIS. So now I ask
34:45
Speaker 3: a question, do you rely on AI a lot?
34:47
Speaker 5: Because you do? I can't.
34:48
Speaker 3: I can't rock with you because you're not a creative
34:50
Speaker 3: and because that you'll end up making me look bad
34:53
Speaker 3: and I got to take over your work.
34:57
Speaker 1: But now, how do you wouldn't they just lie. Huh,
35:03
Speaker 1: wouldn't they just lie?
35:04
Speaker 5: What do you mean by lie?
35:05
Speaker 1: Like and just say that they they wouldn't they just
35:08
Speaker 1: lie and just be like Yeah, I don't use AI
35:10
Speaker 1: really just to get on your team.
35:12
Speaker 5: But you know, it's like I do like a vetting process,
35:14
Speaker 5: you know.
35:14
Speaker 3: I use my YouTube channel, like, hey, like help me
35:16
Speaker 3: out with some like projects online or something like that,
35:19
Speaker 3: some quick things, you know what I'm saying.
35:21
Speaker 2: And that's the way, like you're like test them on
35:22
Speaker 2: the spot.
35:23
Speaker 4: Yeah.
35:24
Speaker 3: But but even but even still, it's just like just
35:27
Speaker 3: the crib community just getting bad out here. When it
35:30
Speaker 3: comes to that, I'm just afraid, like years down the line,
35:34
Speaker 3: like people are not gonna be able to do nothing.
35:38
Speaker 1: Well, I don't like to backtrack, but take me back
35:41
Speaker 1: to like your original inspiration that got you into drawing,
35:44
Speaker 1: because I know it helped you hope through things, But
35:47
Speaker 1: like where was that first initial seed?
35:49
Speaker 3: You like things like Naruto, dragon Ball, dragon Ball Z.
35:54
Speaker 3: You know, the generics of everybody. Everybody, Like you know
35:56
Speaker 3: what I'm saying, people some people like one piece, you
35:58
Speaker 3: know I'm saying. I watched a lot of cartoon cartoon network.
36:01
Speaker 3: I was a cartoon network kid. Yeah, just like all
36:05
Speaker 3: those things. But my style really comes from Dragon Ball
36:09
Speaker 3: from dragon Ball Z because like the way you draw
36:12
Speaker 3: the pupils, the ears. That's why I'm really like big
36:15
Speaker 3: on yeah like that. And then what a thing that
36:19
Speaker 3: taught me style was was bleach. You never heard of bleak? No,
36:25
Speaker 3: I don't expect you to know Bleach is? You know
36:26
Speaker 3: what bleach it is? Chris IF's smiling so hard?
36:29
Speaker 2: Are you laughing so hard?
36:31
Speaker 5: I can see the gap between his teeth.
36:32
Speaker 1: He's smiling so hard talking behind the camera. So what
36:40
Speaker 1: are the next projects you have coming out?
36:43
Speaker 3: Right now? You know it's right now? The real main
36:47
Speaker 3: thing is Kayla because that's my spider Man. Okay, yeah,
36:51
Speaker 3: so I'm putting my all into that. So it's like
36:53
Speaker 3: I'm working on a one it's called a one shot,
36:56
Speaker 3: so it's going to be sixty something pages.
37:00
Speaker 2: You know.
37:01
Speaker 3: Were putting out trailers for it and all that, treating
37:04
Speaker 3: like it's a real thing, you know what I'm saying.
37:06
Speaker 3: And then I plan on turn it into a short
37:08
Speaker 3: film eventually. But yeah, like I'm not going to be
37:11
Speaker 3: doing like no more like regular like videos of the
37:15
Speaker 3: moment type thing. I really want to take this stuff
37:17
Speaker 3: to another level. So I'm doing like treating like all
37:20
Speaker 3: my animations when I put them out.
37:22
Speaker 5: Like short films.
37:23
Speaker 2: I like that.
37:23
Speaker 3: Yeah, So it's like all my videos going to be filmed,
37:26
Speaker 3: gonna have that short film vibe. You know, I'm gonna
37:28
Speaker 3: be submitting them into film festivals.
37:30
Speaker 2: But so, how how long would a short film be?
37:32
Speaker 4: For you?
37:33
Speaker 3: A short film can be any lanth It can be
37:35
Speaker 3: a minute to six minutes, ten minutes, it doesn't it

37:39
Speaker 2: Are you going to charge your fans to watch it?
37:43
Speaker 3: No? No, I'm not going to.
37:46
Speaker 5: I don't believe in like things like that, you know
37:48
Speaker 5: what I'm saying.
37:49
Speaker 2: Not in the same way, by the way, I don't.
37:50
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's just weird because it's like it's even hard
37:53
Speaker 3: to like even make them like a Patreon because it's
37:55
Speaker 3: like it's like i'd rather like sell you merch you know,
37:59
Speaker 3: once I convince you that that you'd like to product
38:02
Speaker 3: that much, you want to support me in that way
38:04

38:20
Speaker 1: distribute it and all that?
38:23
Speaker 5: You know online?
38:24
Speaker 3: Probably do something like bookstore releases and just everything, because
38:28
Speaker 3: like I said, it's like I really you know, people
38:31
Speaker 3: really feeding for a new Boon Docks and it's not
38:33
Speaker 3: like a Boon Docks or anything like that. I'll break
38:35
Speaker 3: it down a little bit. So it's basically it's around
38:39
Speaker 3: h zodiac signs. Their powers around zodiac signs. Right, So
38:43
Speaker 3: say like I'm an Eries for instance, Right, so it's
38:45

43:01
Speaker 3: of people do is like they quit their jobs way
43:03
Speaker 3: too early. Because I didn't quit my job until it
43:05
Speaker 3: made sense.
43:07
Speaker 2: Was what was your job?
43:09
Speaker 5: I worked in dietary?
43:10
Speaker 2: What does that mean?
43:11
Speaker 5: It was in the kitchen.
43:13
Speaker 3: Oh you were like cooking, like you know, like serving
43:15
Speaker 3: the food, cleaning.
43:18
Speaker 5: It was a nursing home.
43:20
Speaker 2: Oh okay, yeah, okay, And you worked that till what point?
43:24
Speaker 5: I worked there until two thousand and seventeen.
43:29
Speaker 1: Okay, so that's right before yeah came into the picture.
43:33
Speaker 1: Was that right before your eight thousand dollars?
43:35
Speaker 3: Right?
43:35
Speaker 5: That was.
43:38
Speaker 3: That didn't come into like a year. They didn't come
43:39
Speaker 3: into like a year later. That's why I made That's
43:41
Speaker 3: why I made you quit? What made you say I
43:44
Speaker 3: could quit? Because because I made like twenty four thousand
43:49
Speaker 3: by myself doing what though?
43:51
Speaker 5: Just doing commission work?
43:53
Speaker 2: Okay? And how much were you making at the day job?
43:56
Speaker 5: Same amount?
43:58
Speaker 1: Okay, I would have done the same. I would have
44:00
Speaker 1: done the same, but I try to stack the money though.
44:03
Speaker 3: For a little bit before you quit, I was buying snapbacks.
44:07
Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, you look like a fashion guy like this
44:11
Speaker 1: this overall set?
44:12
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is this is this is premium pit bull letter?
44:17
Speaker 2: Is it really? It's a really cute outfit.
44:20
Speaker 5: I feel this premium pit Bull letter. Right there, there
44:23
Speaker 5: you go.
44:23
Speaker 2: It feels like leather. Yeah, all right?
44:30
Speaker 1: Uh and then, uh, is there anything that we don't
44:33
Speaker 1: know about you that you love to share with us
44:35
Speaker 1: on this show?
44:40
Speaker 3: I think I basically said. I think I basically said everything.
44:44
Speaker 3: One thing I can just say is just like, be
44:47
Speaker 3: grateful every day you wake up, try to use try
44:51
Speaker 3: to maximize every day the most you can, and just
44:54
Speaker 3: spend time with friends and loved ones because you never know,
44:57
Speaker 3: and you don't want to be like, well what if this?
44:59
Speaker 4: What that?
45:00
Speaker 3: Do what you want to do, and you know you'll
45:05
Speaker 3: just be happier. That's really all I can say. That's
45:07
Speaker 3: why I can say about myself.
45:09
Speaker 1: And then circling back to the mental health stuff you said,
45:13
Speaker 1: bipolar schizophrenic, to my knowledge, doesn't schizophrenia like you can
45:19
Speaker 1: hear voices.
45:20
Speaker 3: Yeah, but it's like a lot of that stuff, man,
45:22
Speaker 3: I probably more likely when I think about it, it's
45:25
Speaker 3: like I probably never had it. A lot of it
45:27
Speaker 3: more likely just had something to do with stress. And
45:28
Speaker 3: you know what, anybody when comes to stress, it becomes
45:30
Speaker 3: a boiling point and just pops. You know what I'm saying,
45:33
Speaker 3: So to me to be honest is like it was
45:38
Speaker 3: probably just stress. But you know it's like people they
45:41
Speaker 3: gotta like diagnose you with something.
45:43
Speaker 1: Yeah, I at the age of I wanna say it
45:46
Speaker 1: was thirty. I had a very stressful thing. I was
45:50
Speaker 1: working with Nick. I was doing a lot of stuff
45:52
Speaker 1: way above what I should have been doing at the time,
45:55
Speaker 1: just juggling a lot not a lot of balance. And
45:57
Speaker 1: I had like a mental like psychosis and I got
46:01
Speaker 1: diagnosed PTSD schizophrenic with bipolar. They were like, she's all
46:05
Speaker 1: bat shit, like she's done, and I was. I was
46:09
Speaker 1: definitely checked out. I thought my brain was never gonna
46:11
Speaker 1: My whole family thought my brain was gone. But I
46:14
Speaker 1: went to in La. They had like a like a
46:17
Speaker 1: mental museum, and I went like five years prior and
46:21
Speaker 1: they had talked about like all these things they do
46:24
Speaker 1: back in the day to like help people with mental health.
46:27
Speaker 1: They were like shocking them and doing all these things,
46:29
Speaker 1: and I remember they ended up putting me in a
46:32
Speaker 1: psych word and I remember, like it's crazy up in
46:36
Speaker 1: there by the way fucking nuts. I woke up and
46:38
Speaker 1: I was like, whoa, I'm tripping, Like I need to
46:42
Speaker 1: get to the root of like what the fuck happened
46:44
Speaker 1: to like find out where I'm at, and they the
46:48
Speaker 1: patients were like, yo, just be careful because these doctors
46:51
Speaker 1: can diagnose you and give you a drug cocktail.
46:54
Speaker 2: You can end up in here like forever.
46:57
Speaker 1: And they were like tipping me off to like fuck
47:01
Speaker 1: around and get the wrong thing.
47:03
Speaker 2: This will be your life.
47:05
Speaker 1: And I'm thankful to the few patients that kind of
47:08
Speaker 1: were like, you know, why are you looking at me
47:10
Speaker 1: like that thinking I'm crazy? No, no, this is true story,
47:14
Speaker 1: so this will happened, true story. I had a trump
47:19
Speaker 1: traumatic childhood. I remember my dad came in my day.
47:22
Speaker 1: My dad my uncle was like call my dad, like
47:25
Speaker 1: you better come down here, like it's a rat for her,
47:27
Speaker 1: you know.
47:28
Speaker 2: And anyways, I was I think I.
47:31
Speaker 1: Was experiencing PTSD, but I didn't know I was experiencing
47:34
Speaker 1: it for so long before the episode until like, you know,
47:38
Speaker 1: they talked to you about the symptoms. You're like, oh,
47:40
Speaker 1: you know, I don't want to say this in front
47:42
Speaker 1: of the doctors, but some of the shit is kind
47:44
Speaker 1: of on point. Anyways, I fought the doctors on like
47:48
Speaker 1: it prescribing me all the drugs.
47:50
Speaker 2: I'm like, my mom was like just take whatever. To
47:52
Speaker 2: get out of there. I'm like, nah, Cuz this is
47:55
Speaker 2: my brain.
47:55
Speaker 1: This is my best asset, Like like I think, like
47:59
Speaker 1: my brain is more important than my looks, like take anything,
48:01
Speaker 1: but just don't take my brain.
48:03
Speaker 2: And so I fought them.
48:04
Speaker 1: They put me like that, had to see a judge.
48:07
Speaker 1: They made me like eat three meals a day. I
48:10
Speaker 1: had to sleep in that place, which was freaking nuts,
48:14
Speaker 1: and I went in front of a judge, Like obviously
48:17
Speaker 1: I came back. My brain came back. I had to sleep.
48:20
Speaker 1: And what I did learn about the whole situation is
48:22
Speaker 1: like sleep is very important to this day, Like if
48:24
Speaker 1: I'm so stressed out, I will get sleeping pills, NyQuil whatever.
48:28
Speaker 1: I don't play about sleep because I think it played
48:30
Speaker 1: a huge role into what happened. But I did fight them.
48:35
Speaker 1: I didn't take the drugs, and then my dad was
48:37
Speaker 1: like thanking me later, like yo, the side effects of
48:40
Speaker 1: those drugs would have like probably impaired me for life.
48:43
Speaker 1: And all it was was like just a lot of sleep.
48:45
Speaker 1: I mean they sedated me for like a whole twenty
48:48
Speaker 1: four hours, and that's obviously what helped me kind of
48:52
Speaker 1: come out of it. But I fought them and I
48:56
Speaker 1: remember the judge being like, yeah, So I was like, look,
48:59
Speaker 1: I'm a fully functioning girl in the real world. I'm like,
49:02
Speaker 1: I run my own company, I live by myself, like
49:05
Speaker 1: I pay all my bills like you know. And then
49:08
Speaker 1: I was threatening to sue them because I was like,
49:10
Speaker 1: you know, this place is like people are like raping
49:12
Speaker 1: each other up in here. Like I was like, I
49:14
Speaker 1: will sue all of you guys. And my dad was like,
49:16
Speaker 1: she's back, just free her, you know. But you know,
49:21
Speaker 1: so I kind of know a little bit about it,
49:23
Speaker 1: you know. But that's why I was asking about the
49:26
Speaker 1: whole It's like, you know, that's why I just say.
49:29
Speaker 3: It's just like if more people had more genuine people
49:33
Speaker 3: around them, you know what I'm saying, Like, people will
49:36
Speaker 3: be better, you know what I'm saying, Like, I don't
49:39
Speaker 3: care how busy I am. If you call me, I'll
49:42
Speaker 3: you know, I won't be able to talk much, but
49:43
Speaker 3: I'll listen to you while I'm drawing. You don't just
49:46
Speaker 3: need people need a vent. But it's too many people
49:49
Speaker 3: like saying like oh I don't I don't want that
49:51
Speaker 3: type of energy, what type of what type of energy?
49:54
Speaker 5: If you're that type of person you.
49:56
Speaker 3: Know they're not you know, like I kind of like
49:58
Speaker 3: feel sadden for you, Like it's like you don't got
50:02
Speaker 3: empathy for other people. That's partly the reason why you know,
50:04
Speaker 3: our country is like so messed up where it's like
50:06
Speaker 3: it's not about community no more. You know what I'm saying.
50:09
Speaker 2: I agree.
50:09
Speaker 1: I do have that one Aries friend that is like
50:12
Speaker 1: that who she'll be like her energy and her peace
50:15
Speaker 1: and she protects it or whatever. And I do feel
50:18
Speaker 1: like I'm an empathizer, so I'm gonna be like, well,
50:21
Speaker 1: maybe people call her all the time and that's why
50:24
Speaker 1: she doesn't like hearing things. But she's the only girlfriend
50:28
Speaker 1: of mine and she is an aries and I think
50:30
Speaker 1: she has the same birthday as you, and she'd be like,
50:33
Speaker 1: if it's not this, this, and this, I cannot hear it.
50:37
Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't care.
50:38
Speaker 3: Like if I can have several of my friends hit
50:40
Speaker 3: me up one day, like all in one day and
50:43
Speaker 3: they have any issue, that's that's what we hear for
50:45
Speaker 3: as humans, you know what I'm saying. I look at
50:47
Speaker 3: myself as like a guardian angel, like a healing angel
50:52
Speaker 3: for a lot of people. You know what I'm saying,
50:53
Speaker 3: it's like people come to my life for a season
50:57
Speaker 3: or or for a long time. You know, I'm here

51:14
Speaker 3: some type of entertainer or do sports in order to
51:16
Speaker 3: like to make money at what you do. You know
51:19

51:20
Speaker 3: how many people that we know that's like it's like
51:23
Speaker 3: well known like in mainstream and art. That's my That's
51:27

51:29
Speaker 3: be like a entertainer artist like a stan Lee. Okay,
51:33
