- 2:07Speaker 3: Let it take y'all a court.
- 2:09Speaker 1: But today in an exclusive interview, this literally just happened
- 2:13Speaker 1: moments before night, before we were recording. It happened the
- 2:17Speaker 1: moment that we pressed record to start the podcast. I
- 2:21Speaker 1: had reached out and if you guys watched Breakfast Club,
- 2:23Speaker 1: I told you on yesterday's episode of The Breakfast Club
- 2:27Speaker 1: about a lawsuit. Mesa Hilton, who is the mother of
- 2:31Speaker 1: Diddy Sean Combs's son Christian Combs, is suing her.
- 2:36Speaker 3: Long long, long, long, long, long long time by best
- 2:40Speaker 3: friend Mary J. Blige. Y'all know Mary J. Blige, y'all know.
- 2:44Speaker 3: On top of being like you know, R and B singer,
- 2:47Speaker 3: Mary Go, Mary Go Mary.
- 2:49Speaker 1: She's also super super close with Puff. They all came
- 2:53Speaker 1: up together, Mesa. You know, it's respect the architect. Misa
- 2:57Speaker 1: was stylist. She was putting the looks together for Mary Kim,
- 3:01Speaker 1: all the girls you know in that orbit, Mary J. Blise,
- 3:04Speaker 1: the artist under Puff. It was like the dream team.
- 3:07Speaker 1: Their relationship began in the early night. She begins styling
- 3:10Speaker 1: her in the early nineties and it's been you know,
- 3:13Speaker 1: freaking frack every since.
- 3:14Speaker 3: So when this lawsuit dropped today.
- 3:16Speaker 1: I'm not gonna hold you shout out to a grouchy
- 3:19Speaker 1: greg at all hip hop, but I thought, I'm like, yo,
- 3:22Speaker 1: it's no way they have to have this story wrong,
- 3:24Speaker 1: Like there is no way that Mesa Hilton is suing
- 3:27Speaker 1: Mary J. Blige like at all. But they had it right.
- 3:31Speaker 1: And you know, I did talk to them as well
- 3:34Speaker 1: on some of the covers they did, and we talked
- 3:35Speaker 1: about that on the Breakfast Club before background really quickly
- 3:38Speaker 1: because we were able to talk to the attorney for
- 3:41Speaker 1: Mesa Hilton. His name is Nicholas trim Sharitar and he
- 3:47Speaker 1: is representing Misa Hilton in this lawsuit. So he gave us,
- 3:51Speaker 1: you know, some some exclusive details on like when the
- 3:55Speaker 1: friendship and when things fell apart. We're gonna get to that,
- 3:57Speaker 1: but I once you got to understand what's happening. So
- 4:01Speaker 1: in this lawsuit, Mesa Hilton and her company are alleging
- 4:05Speaker 1: that Mary J.
- 4:05Speaker 3: Blige and Mary J.
- 4:07Speaker 1: Blige's company tried to block Mesa out of an artist
- 4:10Speaker 1: deal that they had together.
- 4:11Speaker 3: New York rapper Vodo speaking in tongues, he's in the
- 4:15Speaker 3: middle of this.
- 4:16Speaker 1: So basically, Mesa Hilton in these documents, is alleging that
- 4:19Speaker 1: she was said manager for Vodo. She was receiving twenty
- 4:22Speaker 1: percent off of his bookings and things like that. Mary
- 4:26Speaker 1: J Blige and her company allegedly were the label and
- 4:29Speaker 1: they were the way that his music was getting out,
- 4:31Speaker 1: and they were platforming him because she is Mary J. Blige,
- 4:34Speaker 1: So he's, you know, according to these docs, you know,
- 4:36Speaker 1: doing bookings through via, you know, being around Mary on
- 4:40Speaker 1: tour with Mary, things of that nature. I know that
- 4:42Speaker 1: I saw a song they did together sometime back. That's
- 4:44Speaker 1: how I even knew that he was signed to her. Basically,
- 4:48Speaker 1: mesas like, look, when that whole business thing was going down, allegedly,
- 4:50Speaker 1: Mary J Blige tried to block me so out. It
- 4:53Speaker 1: got to the point where Mary J Blige allegedly in
- 4:56Speaker 1: her boyfriend, who was also the head of her security,
- 5:00Speaker 1: coming to Vado behind Missa's back, according to Mesa these
- 5:04Speaker 1: docs and basically telling Vodo, yo, if you come over
- 5:07Speaker 1: here with just us and leave her as management, we
- 5:09Speaker 1: can get you more money. But on top of that,
- 5:12Speaker 1: Messa Hillon also alleges that Mary J Blige shelved Vado's music,
- 5:17Speaker 1: so he has the current project and some songs that
- 5:19Speaker 1: he's been wanting to put out. And according to Missa
- 5:22Speaker 1: Hillon and some of the conversations that they put in
- 5:25Speaker 1: these documents, it's alleged that Mary J.
- 5:27Speaker 3: Blige is like, I'm not releasing no music.
- 5:29Speaker 1: Not only is she not releasing music, not only is
- 5:31Speaker 1: she no longer platforming him, and you know, not allowing
- 5:34Speaker 1: any bookings that would have come through her to happen.
- 5:36Speaker 1: But Missa Hillon is also alleging that there would be
- 5:39Speaker 1: things like they would do like yacht parties and just
- 5:41Speaker 1: different gatherings where it would be very intimate and conversations
- 5:45Speaker 1: would be flowing about Vado having to leave Mesa in
- 5:48Speaker 1: order to move forward in a strong way with Mary J.
- 5:51Speaker 1: E Oblige and her boyfriend, and Mesa wouldn't even be
- 5:54Speaker 1: invited to these things, right, And this is her friend,
- 5:56Speaker 1: this is her front friend, it's her sister. More So,
- 5:58Speaker 1: I was kind of feeling like, Yo, this must be
- 6:00Speaker 1: like a fake AI situation, because I don't know what
- 6:04Speaker 1: the play is because Vado no shade to Vado, but
- 6:07Speaker 1: Vado in his career, in the conversation about what's happening
- 6:13Speaker 1: versus what's not happening for either ladies in this situation.
- 6:15Speaker 1: When it comes to his career, it's no way near
- 6:17Speaker 1: bigger than the history that they've done together.
- 6:19Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's just not like the most active, you
- 6:22Speaker 2: know rapper right now. So it's interesting that like to
- 6:24Speaker 2: take this this route with the relationship.
- 6:27Speaker 1: We're going to find out because we spoke to Nicktar. Okay, listen,
- 6:32Speaker 1: we spoke to Nick who is Missa Hillton's attorney, and
- 6:35Speaker 1: we asked us questions. He gave us the rundown, So
- 6:37Speaker 1: take a listen to this, Okay. So we were on
- 6:39Speaker 1: the line with Nicholas ram Charatar, who is the attorney
- 6:42Speaker 1: for Mesa Hillton. In the filing that dropped today. Mesa
- 6:46Speaker 1: Hillon is currently suing Mary J. Blige for five million
- 6:50Speaker 1: dollars for a breach of contract when it comes to
- 6:53Speaker 1: music artist Vado, who both at the time I were
- 6:56Speaker 1: working with Vado, Misa was on the management side and
- 6:59Speaker 1: in marriage and her company came in on the record
- 7:02Speaker 1: label side and distribution of music side.
- 7:04Speaker 3: Correct, Absolutely, that's correct.
- 7:06Speaker 1: So when I got the filing, first of all, before
- 7:08Speaker 1: we even get into what is being alleged, when I
- 7:11Speaker 1: got the filing and saw the headline, my first thought was,
- 7:14Speaker 1: there is no way Mysa Hillton.
- 7:16Speaker 3: And Mary J. Blige are like family.
- 7:18Speaker 1: They have been that way for decades now, like since
- 7:21Speaker 1: before I was even born, and I'm thirty three years old.
- 7:24Speaker 3: What happened? When did the friendship die out?
- 7:26Speaker 4: I mean, that's that's that's a fact. I mean, that's
- 7:28Speaker 4: a fact that the world knows. And it was a
- 7:30Speaker 4: fact that I knew before this came across our table. Unfortunately,
- 7:33Speaker 4: and you're right, Misa Hilton and Mary J. Blige, they're
- 7:37Speaker 4: not just friends. Their non biological family probably closer than
- 7:41Speaker 4: blood family. And it's very unfortunate that this had to
- 7:45Speaker 4: go down like this because Misa tried every possible revenue
- 7:49Speaker 4: in terms of trying to amicably resolve this with Mary
- 7:53Speaker 4: directly with Mary's camp. But unfortunately, and it's unbeknownst to
- 7:57Speaker 4: us why Mary J. Blige and why came completely cut off.
- 8:01Speaker 4: You know, Miss Hilton, and I can tell you that
- 8:04Speaker 4: this vital lawsuit isn't why their friendship died, and I'm
- 8:08Speaker 4: sure you know that, but more importantly, it's it's the reason,
- 8:12Speaker 4: or really the cherry on top of this whole thing. Missus,
- 8:15Speaker 4: missus confused, and we've tried, niece's tried to reach out
- 8:19Speaker 4: to Mary. We did not want this in the media.
- 8:22Speaker 4: We wanted to We wanted to do what families do.
- 8:24Speaker 4: We wanted to sit at the dinner table. We wanted
- 8:26Speaker 4: to talk this out, ash this out, screaming, yell if
- 8:29Speaker 4: you have to, but keep this private. That's what family does.
- 8:31Speaker 4: But unfortunately Lisa was backed into the corner and had
- 8:34Speaker 4: no other choice.
- 8:35Speaker 1: Well, you say that the cutoff happened, and Mesa's confused
- 8:38Speaker 1: about it because she doesn't know why. She just started
- 8:40Speaker 1: receiving phone calls and texts. So when did that allegedly happen.
- 8:44Speaker 4: It's a good question. I mean, it's hard to really
- 8:45Speaker 4: pinpoint a time frame. I would I would probably point
- 8:48Speaker 4: to maybe you're on the Super Bowl of when this
- 8:51Speaker 4: all started, probably roughly around around I would say, maybe
- 8:56Speaker 4: late August of probably last year, when all of this
- 9:00Speaker 4: kind of started to pop off. Mary was was with
- 9:03Speaker 4: Mesa in the Amalfi Coast for an extended period of time.
- 9:07Speaker 4: They were together, they would have a great time and
- 9:09Speaker 4: their friendship was the same as as it always was. Fortunately,
- 9:13Speaker 4: at that point moving forward, things started to take a
- 9:16Speaker 4: turn for the worst, and again it was a little
- 9:19Speaker 4: ambiguous as to why. So Mary just thought, excuse me,
- 9:22Speaker 4: Mesa just thought that Mary may have been busy or
- 9:25Speaker 4: you know, there were other things going on and that's
- 9:27Speaker 4: why maybe she couldn't reach out to me. Mary is
- 9:29Speaker 4: a wonderful person and a very busy a very busy artist,
- 9:31Speaker 4: so it made sense. But when Nessa stopped getting phone
- 9:34Speaker 4: calls and text messages and not being included on the
- 9:37Speaker 4: normal things that they do in the daily, weekly, monthly
- 9:39Speaker 4: beats is you know, her antennas went up and we
- 9:42Speaker 4: tried to figure out, well, what's going on here, and
- 9:44Speaker 4: that's really when we started to figure out that the
- 9:47Speaker 4: relationship wasn't the same.
- 9:49Speaker 1: And you mentioned that there was a correspondence before this
- 9:52Speaker 1: lawsuit was filed. So you guys tried to go to
- 9:55Speaker 1: Mary Jay and what Margie oblige you do? What settle
- 9:58Speaker 1: or just tell her a united mean like the things
- 10:00Speaker 1: you're legend of lawsuit is that Mary J. Blige and
- 10:02Speaker 1: her company allegedly, uh they're blocking Bito from money in
- 10:08Speaker 1: advancement in his career, so they're not providing him with
- 10:11Speaker 1: bookings and allowing him to.
- 10:12Speaker 3: Release certain music.
- 10:14Speaker 1: They're misrepresenting him allegedly by you know, showing up to
- 10:17Speaker 1: places and saying they're their manager and not including me
- 10:19Speaker 1: on any of this based on your documents. Right, So,
- 10:24Speaker 1: before it got to this point where you're saying that
- 10:26Speaker 1: this is happening, how much correspondence and what did you
- 10:29Speaker 1: guys want out of that correspondence. That's a good question.
- 10:32Speaker 4: So the first thing that we always do in situations
- 10:34Speaker 4: like this is we'll send over a letter what we
- 10:37Speaker 4: call an l I a letter of incent Before we
- 10:41Speaker 4: did that, though, what we did was we reached out personally.
- 10:43Speaker 4: I reached out to her legal team, we know who
- 10:46Speaker 4: they are, and we tried via email, the incis message,
- 10:50Speaker 4: whatever phone numbers we can get from other people in
- 10:53Speaker 4: our orbit in the industry, and we got absolutely zero response.
- 10:58Speaker 4: Nissa tried to reach out for personally to marry a
- 11:01Speaker 4: few times, and unfortunately she got zero response. And the
- 11:05Speaker 4: way that we wanted to do this was yes, in
- 11:08Speaker 4: terms of a settlement. I mean, let's be honest here, Vado.
- 11:10Speaker 4: I understand that maybe in twenty twenty five, on whatever
- 11:15Speaker 4: day today is, April twenty nine, twenty twenty five, that
- 11:18Speaker 4: maybe he's not as relevant as he was prior. But
- 11:21Speaker 4: let's be honest. He's not signed to independent label. He
- 11:24Speaker 4: signed to Mary J. Blige. Being on tour with Mary,
- 11:28Speaker 4: for any artist is not just epic, but huge boost.
- 11:32Speaker 2: For their career.
- 11:34Speaker 4: And that's one of the main parts of this lawsuit,
- 11:36Speaker 4: not the whole thing, but the main part is that
- 11:38Speaker 4: why would she stifle her own artist. And in fact,
- 11:43Speaker 4: from what I understand, the allegations go as far as
- 11:47Speaker 4: that they told allegedly Misa, well, if you stop managing him,
- 11:52Speaker 4: then we'll put him back on, which is a complete
- 11:55Speaker 4: material breach of the contract. And again we found that
- 11:58Speaker 4: very strange of their long standing family relationship. So we
- 12:03Speaker 4: were reaching out with the hope said hey, listen, let's
- 12:06Speaker 4: just settle this, let's just figure this out. More importantly,
- 12:09Speaker 4: the one who's suffering here, besides Mesa's relationship with her
- 12:12Speaker 4: sister is Vodal. Unfortunately, what is he doing is the
- 12:16Speaker 4: entire career has now been stifled. He has no exposure,
- 12:19Speaker 4: he's not on tour with Mary, he's not getting paid
- 12:22Speaker 4: by Mary, he's not recording anything that was he was
- 12:25Speaker 4: contractedly obligated to record, and so it's it's terrible for
- 12:29Speaker 4: him in his career.
- 12:32Speaker 1: And what about today's twenty ninth. It's one twenty pm,
- 12:35Speaker 1: so it's in the process of happening. But she's aware
- 12:37Speaker 1: that the lawsuits filed, I mean even before the headlines
- 12:40Speaker 1: right or wrong one hundred percent.
- 12:42Speaker 4: I mean her I believe that her camp and her
- 12:45Speaker 4: team were aware for this for months, and they had
- 12:48Speaker 4: our letter of intent and no one bothered to reach out.
- 12:51Speaker 3: Got you okay, an't got any questions?
- 12:54Speaker 2: Yeah, So from my understanding, she was pretty much trying
- 12:57Speaker 2: to box means out and so she can manage a
- 13:02Speaker 2: bottle herself, correct and take a bigger portion of the
- 13:04Speaker 2: profits allegedly, allegedly.
- 13:11Speaker 4: Allegedly that that is what we're Those are the allegations
- 13:15Speaker 4: that that.
- 13:15Speaker 1: We're putting forth.
- 13:16Speaker 4: Now listen again, guys, this is Marry J. Blige. Do
- 13:19Speaker 4: I think that this contract with Voto is going to
- 13:20Speaker 4: make a Rachel Maker poor? No? And that was really
- 13:24Speaker 4: what kind of perked up everybody's ears on Lisa's camp
- 13:27Speaker 4: was that we know this isn't about Faddo, even though
- 13:31Speaker 4: it is directly about Fado. This is more to do
- 13:34Speaker 4: with Lisa Hilton and whatever reasons, the deterioration of the
- 13:38Speaker 4: relationship happened and the reasons as for why. But yes,
- 13:42Speaker 4: Vato is obviously directly in the middle of this. But again,
- 13:45Speaker 4: I wouldn't say that Mary did this for monetary purposes.
- 13:48Speaker 4: I believe there are other issues again that are either
- 13:51Speaker 4: unresolved or unknown to us as to why she put
- 13:54Speaker 4: the pressure on Lisa the boxer out.
- 13:56Speaker 3: Yeah, like what happened that you said they were wear
- 13:57Speaker 3: it on the a Mafi Coast there Coles getting money?
- 14:05Speaker 3: What the hell the coast do to the friend group?
- 14:08Speaker 3: I heard her girls not.
- 14:09Speaker 1: Making it back from Miami as friends. But Mafi Coast
- 14:11Speaker 1: is a little crazy.
- 14:12Speaker 2: Now, it's a little crazy, a little crazy.
- 14:15Speaker 4: But no, I know they had a wonderful time together.
- 14:17Speaker 4: I mean, there was no way issues. Dang I was speaking,
- 14:20Speaker 4: I was speaking with me, so while she was with Mary,
- 14:21Speaker 4: and you know, they just had the wonderful relationship that
- 14:24Speaker 4: they always had and it really was a beautiful thing.
- 14:26Speaker 4: And it's really it's really more sad for me, said
- 14:28Speaker 4: that she had to go down this road, but more
- 14:30Speaker 4: sad that she lost her sister.
- 14:32Speaker 1: How's Misa feeling today with the lawsuit, you know, being
- 14:35Speaker 1: picked up in headlines and you said she's been going
- 14:37Speaker 1: through this for some months. She also has a lot
- 14:39Speaker 1: of other things going on, you know, puff her child's
- 14:41Speaker 1: father is currently locked up. She's watching her kids go
- 14:44Speaker 1: back and forth to try and you know, fight for
- 14:46Speaker 1: their dad. How's she feeling right now?
- 14:47Speaker 4: Absolutely, I mean she's upset. There's a lot going on.
- 14:52Speaker 4: I mean, listen at the end of the day. You
- 14:54Speaker 4: know Sean Combs and what's going on with him. It's unfortunate,
- 14:58Speaker 4: but it affects everybody. You know, me, this is a
- 15:00Speaker 4: wonderful woman. You know, Sean's kids are wonderful, wonderful kids.
- 15:04Speaker 4: I can't say more about them. They really were raised
- 15:08Speaker 4: as gentlemen and I deal with them on a consistent basis.
- 15:12Speaker 4: But she's upset, and again, she's more upset of the relationship.
- 15:15Speaker 4: It's like it's like all of a sudden, you have
- 15:17Speaker 4: a sister that you've been with forever, and forty years later,
- 15:20Speaker 4: all of a sudden and your sister stops talking to you,
- 15:22Speaker 4: and you have no reason why. It's gonna be upsetting
- 15:24Speaker 4: on all sorts of different levels.
- 15:27Speaker 2: Yeah, we've been talking about the relationship. So is their
- 15:29Speaker 2: business with Bato the only business ties they have together
- 15:32Speaker 2: at the moment.
- 15:33Speaker 4: That's a good question. To the best of my knowledge,
- 15:35Speaker 4: I'm not involved with any other business transactions between Missa
- 15:39Speaker 4: Hilton and miss Mary J. Blige at this time, so
- 15:41Speaker 4: I can.
- 15:42Speaker 2: Only comment on this, okay.
- 15:44Speaker 1: And then how did Misa find out about all the
- 15:46Speaker 1: like the alleged back dooring that was that you guys
- 15:48Speaker 1: are a legend was happening from marriage Bige's And did
- 15:51Speaker 1: battle come to her or.
- 15:54Speaker 4: I believe it was more of a collective conversation and
- 15:56Speaker 4: a collective effort that kind of was just a bunch
- 15:58Speaker 4: of random puzzle pieces there and we're trying to put
- 16:01Speaker 4: them all together and figure out, Wait a minute, why
- 16:03Speaker 4: is this happening? Is Mary just busy? Is are they
- 16:07Speaker 4: just not pursuing the Bottle contract anymore? But it came
- 16:11Speaker 4: readily apparent as time went on that Misa was purposely
- 16:14Speaker 4: getting boxed out and unfortunately that was directly affecting Bottle
- 16:18Speaker 4: and this contractual relationship with Mary J.
- 16:20Speaker 3: Blood got you.
- 16:22Speaker 1: Well, I don't know if there's anything that we have
- 16:23Speaker 1: not asked you that you know you want to get
- 16:26Speaker 1: out or Lisa wants out now. But if so, now's
- 16:29Speaker 1: the time let me know, because I'm a lot of questions.
- 16:32Speaker 1: I think you've provided a lot of contexts. I appreciate that.
- 16:36Speaker 4: It's my pleasure. The one thing that we want to
- 16:37Speaker 4: put out there is that this is not something that
- 16:40Speaker 4: we wanted to happen. This is a relationship that was
- 16:43Speaker 4: a beautiful relationship between miss Hillton and miss Mary J. Blige,
- 16:48Speaker 4: and unfortunately it's come to this point. I mean, we
- 16:51Speaker 4: hope that this can be resolved in an amicable fashion
- 16:54Speaker 4: and that we hope that they will understand where we're
- 16:56Speaker 4: coming from. This is not coming from Lisa hill Then aggressively.
- 17:01Speaker 4: In fact, even though a lawsuit is a very aggressive
- 17:04Speaker 4: way to deal with something. We tried our best. We
- 17:06Speaker 4: try to do everything that we could to put it
- 17:08Speaker 4: out there, and unfortunately, through our best efforts, they were
- 17:12Speaker 4: not met.
- 17:12Speaker 3: And here we are, Okay, Well, thank you so much.
- 17:15Speaker 3: I'll be in contact.
- 17:17Speaker 1: First of all, I just appreciate attorneys who are always
- 17:20Speaker 1: down to provide context because it helps to paint the
- 17:23Speaker 1: picture of a narrative. But he sound just as confused,
- 17:25Speaker 1: and Mesa Nick Mesa's attorney in Mesa Hilton sound just
- 17:30Speaker 1: as confused about what happened as we did.
- 17:31Speaker 2: We did one thing that stoted out to me was
- 17:34Speaker 2: him talking about how Messa's taken every other route besides
- 17:37Speaker 2: suing her, and like we said, we're all surprised, like
- 17:39Speaker 2: why did Mesa sue marry if they're that close? But
- 17:41Speaker 2: she's it sounds like she's tried everything, And this is
- 17:44Speaker 2: always tough. I don't know if you've tried it, Like
- 17:46Speaker 2: just doing business with friends and stuff like that, there's
- 17:48Speaker 2: always that teetering between friendship and business and business, and
- 17:53Speaker 2: like you could love somebody like that they were just
- 17:54Speaker 2: on trade. You could love somebody to death, but sometimes
- 17:57Speaker 2: the business you want it kind of done your way,
- 17:59Speaker 2: you know, or what you feel is the right way.
- 18:02Speaker 2: So it's always tough to like put that aside, especially
- 18:06Speaker 2: like how much energy you dedicate to something. So I
- 18:10Speaker 2: know that's a tough situation there in right now.
- 18:11Speaker 1: I think too well for me when it comes to
- 18:15Speaker 1: doing business with friends, what I've learned is is like
- 18:18Speaker 1: I said, I don't, but that's not true. I do,
- 18:20Speaker 1: and you can, but you gotta, like I like, you
- 18:23Speaker 1: just approach it and stand off a bit differently, Like
- 18:25Speaker 1: I would rather be like an investor in something that
- 18:27Speaker 1: my friend is doing versus like an active not silent partner,
- 18:31Speaker 1: because you know what I mean, coming to heads about things,
- 18:33Speaker 1: or if I have a friend that like, you know,
- 18:36Speaker 1: I decide like works for me, it's like I put
- 18:39Speaker 1: them in a position where I can't empower them. But
- 18:42Speaker 1: like I also have to know you know your friends
- 18:44Speaker 1: as well too. Yeah, I also have to know that
- 18:46Speaker 1: this friend is a friend that like really wants to
- 18:47Speaker 1: do the job, is willing to learn, so that when
- 18:49Speaker 1: I come to them like yo, that's not right, you
- 18:51Speaker 1: did it wrong, blah blah blah. You know, I mean,
- 18:52Speaker 1: they're not taking it personal. It don't make it weird
- 18:54Speaker 1: for us. It's like now I'm here to learn type
- 18:56Speaker 1: of vibe. But I just another thing for me is
- 18:58Speaker 1: how do they come out of this?
- 19:00Speaker 2: Yeah, that's why I want to ask you. How do
- 19:02Speaker 2: you how would you handle business that has gone wrong
- 19:04Speaker 2: with somebody very close to you? Like what would you do?
- 19:07Speaker 2: Would you scrap the business and say the friendship? Or
- 19:10Speaker 2: take this route? And you know what, like let me,
- 19:13Speaker 2: I have to take her to court because this we
- 19:15Speaker 2: have paperwork and all this stuff. Like what route would
- 19:17Speaker 2: you take? I mean those are not the only two routes,
- 19:19Speaker 2: but listen.
- 19:19Speaker 1: I don't blame me Sahilla for handling her business in court.
- 19:22Speaker 1: She felt like that's what she needed to do. But
- 19:24Speaker 1: I think for me, I would just I wouldn't.
- 19:27Speaker 3: I wouldn't. I wouldn't go this route. I wouldn't follow
- 19:28Speaker 3: a lawsuit.
- 19:29Speaker 1: Not because it's like, oh my god, girl, that was
- 19:31Speaker 1: supposed to be your friend, but just because it's like
- 19:33Speaker 1: I heard, I heard, I hear you, right, Yeah, I
- 19:36Speaker 1: see what you're doing. I'm cool, I'm here. Look wido,
- 19:40Speaker 1: look go ahead, go be man. Yeah, it's not worth
- 19:43Speaker 1: a headache for you. Yeah, And we don't know everything
- 19:46Speaker 1: that happened here. I have reached out to Mary J.
- 19:48Speaker 1: Blige's side, I have not heard back from them yet.
- 19:51Speaker 1: And I've also reached out to Baddo as well now too.
- 19:53Speaker 1: We got to get some more like you know, painting
- 19:56Speaker 1: on the or color on the paintings and our context.
- 19:58Speaker 1: But from what it seems like Misa was expecting certain
- 20:02Speaker 1: things of her friend in business and didn't get it.
- 20:04Speaker 1: And because of that, and you know, in real time,
- 20:08Speaker 1: they're losing money because of these things that they set
- 20:11Speaker 1: up for this artist to be able to do.
- 20:13Speaker 3: She decided to do lawsuit. So we're just gonna have
- 20:15Speaker 3: to see where flow, see where it goes.
- 20:16Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I hope they can make up and
- 20:18Speaker 2: you know, handle this amicable. So I wantch you none
- 20:22Speaker 2: the best for sure.
- 20:23Speaker 3: Who are you telling now?
- 20:24Speaker 1: Taking it to the streets, because y'all know we be outside,
- 20:27Speaker 1: We be outside. You call the dreams we outside, we outside,
- 20:30Speaker 1: we outside? To the tweets. So Philip Lewis, who works
- 20:36Speaker 1: for Huffington Posts. So Philip Lewis, who works for Huffington Post,

- 21:11Speaker 1: stop thinking he's coming home soon. That is a very
- 21:14Speaker 1: New York, New Jersey tweet. It's like you gotta yeah,
- 21:17Speaker 1: like you gotta understand. I'm not even from here, but
- 21:20Speaker 1: I have so many friends from New York, and I
- 21:21Speaker 1: also have a lot of friends from Harlem, and I
- 21:23Speaker 1: just know how particular people are about being from Harlem

- 21:36Speaker 1: Up to y'all, y'all keep doing songs with him the
- 21:42Speaker 1: quick dis okay?
- 21:43Speaker 3: Uh?
- 21:44Speaker 1: Quinn Faz said, So, basically, allegedly, Mary is doing the
- 21:49Speaker 1: same thing that Puff did to her. This is whack
- 21:51Speaker 1: of her, and she's done some whack things that people
- 21:53Speaker 1: dismissed because she's married.
- 21:55Speaker 3: What Mary then did as wag. I don't know nothing
- 21:57Speaker 3: that Mary has done as wag.
- 21:58Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I mean, I hope they don't misconstrue this,
- 22:02Speaker 2: but she seems to be the victim and a lot
- 22:04Speaker 2: of things that for her.
- 22:06Speaker 3: Yeah, it's right, she's still paying at me.
- 22:09Speaker 2: Yeah, she was just.
- 22:11Speaker 3: On stage talking about how the men don't be worth her.
- 22:13Speaker 2: Time and she gotta work hard. You know, she's like
- 22:16Speaker 2: doing so.
- 22:16Speaker 1: Much everything about Mary be given all my life, I
- 22:20Speaker 1: had to fight, and I hate that for her. I
- 22:21Speaker 1: really always looked at Mary like she is the like
- 22:24Speaker 1: literally like the like the the architects of the hip
- 22:28Speaker 1: hop R and B waiting, you know what I'm saying.
- 22:30Speaker 1: Like she deserves to enjoy her money in her time,
- 22:32Speaker 1: and it seems like she's always just having a carry.
- 22:35Speaker 3: This way to things.
- 22:36Speaker 2: Maybe it's yeah, maybe.
- 22:38Speaker 3: It' because her music feels like that too.
- 22:41Speaker 1: I'll do one more so, Rod Wayne said it, tweeted,
- 22:46Speaker 1: Mary don't need any more else in the courtroom, please
- 22:48Speaker 1: work this out. I think what Rod is referring to
- 22:52Speaker 1: is a divorce with Mary J. Blige's ex husband where
- 22:55Speaker 1: she had to pay him all.
- 22:56Speaker 2: That money thirty.
- 22:58Speaker 1: Thousand dollars a month and spousal support was the ruling.
- 23:02Speaker 1: This was significantly less than the one hundred and twenty
- 23:05Speaker 1: nine thousand dollars that he actually requested. Additionally, Blige was
- 23:09Speaker 1: ordered to cover Isaac's legal feeds, which total to two
- 23:12Speaker 1: hundred and thirty five thousand dollars, and she had to
- 23:16Speaker 1: pay retroactive spousal support, so she had to pay spousal
- 23:19Speaker 1: for spousal support for the time before the time before
- 23:24Speaker 1: the judge awarded him this like from.
- 23:28Speaker 2: The Yeah, listen, I'm for makeetting alimony as well, but
- 23:33Speaker 2: this is that this is a bias depending on who's too.
- 23:37Speaker 2: I don't like this happening to Mary at.
- 23:38Speaker 1: All, so I hope they figure it out. But in
- 23:41Speaker 1: the meantime, until they don't, y'all know, we'll be right
