Speaker 1: your back in the hotel. I'm like, but she don't
4:43
Speaker 1: cut it out. You cut it out. You don't mean
4:47
Speaker 1: no harm. I'll not forgive me to My voice is gone.
4:50
Speaker 1: I've been talking so much and working because you've been
4:52
Speaker 1: going non stop. I was telling them the other day
4:54
Speaker 1: were in Detroit. We did our one year anniversary. You
4:56
Speaker 1: performed at that I did and I was a seven.
4:59
Speaker 1: Has been going all right because I know you flew
5:01
Speaker 1: in and then you had to go do radio that night,
5:03
Speaker 1: and then you were out at the club that night
5:05
Speaker 1: than the next day you did a spy day. Then yeah,
5:07
Speaker 1: I would say she's going hard. It's NonStop. But I
5:10
Speaker 1: love it. I'm really having a good time this run,
5:12
Speaker 1: like I really am, because they're giving me like multiple
5:15
Speaker 1: days in the in the cities and I get to
5:17
Speaker 1: do like all different types of things with my fans.
5:19
Speaker 1: That's dope. So when you do these things with your fans,
5:21
Speaker 1: are you playing the music at least a yell personality? Nah?
5:24
Speaker 1: I get to I get to play them like the
5:26
Speaker 1: album and like get their opinions, see what they like,
5:28
Speaker 1: what they rock with, what they don't. And so that's
5:31
Speaker 1: really dope for me because I get to find out
5:32
Speaker 1: what's fune of y'all think should come next, And that's
5:34
Speaker 1: really dope for me. Do you think that would translate
5:36
Speaker 1: the record sales? Um? You know what. I would hope
5:39
Speaker 1: that it would. But at the end of the day,
5:41
Speaker 1: I think that it more so helps them get a
5:43
Speaker 1: better feeling and a better vibe of who I am.
5:46
Speaker 1: That's definitely because that's important to the Definitely worked for
5:52
Speaker 1: it seemed like it worked. I just think that it's
5:53
Speaker 1: important regardless of any anything else. I think that it's
5:56
Speaker 1: important to establish a relationship. I don't. I hate being
6:00
Speaker 1: in a city or for one day and be like, hey,
6:02
Speaker 1: I'm here, you know, play my stuff, support my record
6:05
Speaker 1: and all this type of stuff, and then you leave.
6:06
Speaker 1: So this run you know the label, they know me.
6:09
Speaker 1: I like to talk to them. I like to go skating.
6:11
Speaker 1: I like to go to Papa. I like to do
6:13
Speaker 1: that called super serving, superserving your your audience, something like that.
6:16
Speaker 1: Can I say that I'm really feeling that shot? And
6:18
Speaker 1: I hate all three of y'all. Right now, I hate
6:21
Speaker 1: all of y'all. Were concerned about you seven? Now I
6:24
Speaker 1: gotta I gotta ask you about this. Well, why were
6:26
Speaker 1: you concer because apparently I get the feeling that you
6:28
Speaker 1: get choked out a lot. Is that right? I mean,
6:33
Speaker 1: listen here, Okay, I don't. I don't kill the fun.
6:36
Speaker 1: And I think that that is important. Okay, so you
6:40
Speaker 1: admit that you do like choking. I think it's sexy.
6:43
Speaker 1: I think that when you know, when you're with somebody
6:45
Speaker 1: that you love and you trust or whatever, I think
6:47
Speaker 1: that it's important that you know you don't kill the fun.
6:50
Speaker 1: You know. My motto is, I feel like I'm gonna
6:53
Speaker 1: kick your I think that did you see if you
7:00
Speaker 1: watch him for that? No, I'm on camera, ye, but
7:03
Speaker 1: you got my back though, right, I watched him for you. No,
7:06
Speaker 1: But I think that it's important. I always say that,
7:07
Speaker 1: me and my friends had this conversation all the time.
7:10
Speaker 1: I think that when you, you know, commit to somebody,
7:12
Speaker 1: you take them off the market, right. I think that
7:15
Speaker 1: it is your job as a woman or as you know,
7:18
Speaker 1: a man too, you know, like, I don't think you
7:21
Speaker 1: should ever say no. You know what I mean, Like
7:24
Speaker 1: I don't want to hear no. I'm talking about no
7:28
Speaker 1: anal sex. I'm not into no. But I mean, like
7:30
Speaker 1: if you're tired, I mean, if somebody's tired there like,
7:33
Speaker 1: oh I'm tired. I'm feel like it. No, because at
7:35
Speaker 1: the end of the day, you took that person off
7:37
Speaker 1: the market. They can't go and be with somebody else
7:40
Speaker 1: because they're with you. So they would ever say no,
7:45
Speaker 1: You don't until he's shooting out air and everything's gone
7:47
Speaker 1: pretty much. I mean, you know, if they like that,
7:52
Speaker 1: you know, day's day. I'm just saying, if that's what
7:55
Speaker 1: you're do, like, then that's what you do. You're actually
7:57
Speaker 1: opening in the door for him. To go out there
7:58
Speaker 1: and cheat. How if if he says you y'all want
8:01
Speaker 1: to I want to get in, You're like, oh, I'm tired. Yeah, No, seriously,
8:05
Speaker 1: I agree with that. And I don't say how she
8:06
Speaker 1: switched that. You said you're actually opening to do it
8:08
Speaker 1: for him to teach she said, how said something real too.
8:12
Speaker 1: She says she's never claimed anybody publicly because nobody's ever
8:14
Speaker 1: put a ring on her finger. You worry about that
8:16
Speaker 1: because you and out here on Instagram and kissing. I mean,
8:19
Speaker 1: my thing is I take my life a day at
8:21
Speaker 1: a time, you know what I mean A day. I
8:22
Speaker 1: don't I think that that's all that you can do.
8:24
Speaker 1: And um, you know, for me, like with you know,
8:27
Speaker 1: with me and Bob, we started out as friends. We
8:29
Speaker 1: were friends for a very long time. And I say
8:31
Speaker 1: this all the time, and I mean it from the
8:33
Speaker 1: bottom of my heart. If it ended tomorrow, you know
8:36
Speaker 1: what I mean, He's still my friend. And I've never
8:39
Speaker 1: had anything start out that way before, you know, in
8:41
Speaker 1: the past, I've you know, had relationships, I've I've had
8:46
Speaker 1: bands for real on some real life A bitch bitch
8:49
Speaker 1: as oh yeah, like that's one of my record show
8:52
Speaker 1: me what are you doing? You don't have my EP?
8:54
Speaker 1: What are you doing with your life? I know I
8:55
Speaker 1: remember it, just it just hit me. Okay, he said,
8:59
Speaker 1: a kid, It's okay, you get but no, um, but yes,
9:02
Speaker 1: I have ran across bands before, and honestly, like my
9:06
Speaker 1: ex and my last situation, I felt like, you know,
9:10
Speaker 1: like he didn't you know, I had to dim my light,
9:12
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Like I feel like he
9:13
Speaker 1: didn't want me to shine. And so it feels really
9:17
Speaker 1: good to, you know, be dating somebody who he got
9:20
Speaker 1: his own light. He is comfortable in his own skin
9:23
Speaker 1: and supports me. It's like, all right, bull, they go
9:26
Speaker 1: shine like and I think that that's the dope and
9:28
Speaker 1: that's important industry. Then no, he was then you take
9:32
Speaker 1: him back though, no he thought about it. No, my
9:37
Speaker 1: ex when I was like twenty two, that was the
9:39
Speaker 1: one who I wrote next about and that was the
9:41
Speaker 1: one that we went back and forth. But my one,
9:43
Speaker 1: you know that I dated before Bob, that I was
9:45
Speaker 1: with for a little minute. I know, you gotta watch
9:47
Speaker 1: publicly bashing these guys. It's but it's not a bash.
9:51
Speaker 1: The thing is, it's not a bash. It's just it's
9:53
Speaker 1: the truth. I feel like you know with with my ex, Like,
9:56
Speaker 1: you know, I'm not gonna be embarrassed to feel crazy
9:59
Speaker 1: because I I actually loved you and you excuse my
10:02
Speaker 1: friends book up. You know, I'm not gonna feel bad
10:05
Speaker 1: about that. I think that anytime you're in a relationship
10:07
Speaker 1: you should give it. You're one hundred and twenty percent
10:09
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, and if it works out,
10:11
Speaker 1: you don't feel bad about it. If you tried your
10:13
Speaker 1: best and they because you no, okay, good, No, guys
10:17
Speaker 1: always get angry and you start hearing any name in
10:20
Speaker 1: music are here, that's all about me? Watch this. He knows,
10:24
Speaker 1: he knows that a lot of the records are about him.
10:25
Speaker 1: Man is about him. He knows you for you and
10:28
Speaker 1: Bob did you Guys have to sit down and like
10:30
Speaker 1: go through everything like okay, if you hear about this,
10:32
Speaker 1: I did go out with this girl briefly, and then
10:34
Speaker 1: you have to say, okay, well just so you know.
10:36
Speaker 1: But the thing, the thing um with Bob and I
10:39
Speaker 1: I just I'm really big on just don't do anything
10:43
Speaker 1: that you wouldn't want me to do. And he's the
10:44
Speaker 1: same way. And in terms of um, you know, seeing
10:47
Speaker 1: him in a picture with somebody or seeing me in
10:49
Speaker 1: a picture. That comes along with the job. Like I'm
10:53
Speaker 1: a singer, I'm a performer, I'm entertainer. I'm gonna meet
10:55
Speaker 1: plenty of actors, athletes. It just that comes along with
10:58
Speaker 1: the territory and the same thing with him, you know.
11:00
Speaker 1: And half the time, if we're chilling and I see
11:02
Speaker 1: a girl with a big old booty and be like, oh,
11:04
Speaker 1: look at how booty is crazy? Why like a preemptive thing,
11:08
Speaker 1: like I know he gonna looks so let me go ahead.
11:10
Speaker 1: And no, it's not even that like to each other too,
11:13
Speaker 1: though you'd be like, damn you see that. Girls said
11:16
Speaker 1: that to my girlfriend, right, Yeah, No, guys aren't as
11:23
Speaker 1: comfortable doing that, and you know you're not. Ain't thinking
11:26

11:41
Speaker 1: write or as one of those things where I'm not
11:42
Speaker 1: giving up a hit anymore. No, I do. Actually, I

Speaker 1: you know what I mean. But I I write from
14:31
Speaker 1: all of my life. You know what I mean, Like
14:32
Speaker 1: from the good, the bad, the ugly and all of it.
14:35
Speaker 1: That's actually a song. If it's bad for your heart, yeah,
14:38
Speaker 1: what's what's bad for your heart, it's good for your art.
14:40
Speaker 1: That works with faults too. If it's bad for your heart,
14:42
Speaker 1: it's good for your faults because the things they give
14:44
Speaker 1: you heartburn give you the best gas. You was the
14:46
Speaker 1: dumbest chaman who says that, Like, seriously, nobody Brown, How,
14:53
Speaker 1: oh my god, we talk about farts to Chris Brown? Right?
14:57
Speaker 1: How hands on this Chris Brown? With with your with
15:00
Speaker 1: your project. You know what with Chris Chris Um he did,
15:07
Speaker 1: he directed you know, don't kill the Fun and obviously
15:09
Speaker 1: he's in the video and on the song, and the
15:11
Speaker 1: same thing with they Won't Stop. But I love the
15:13
Speaker 1: fact that when when I first signed to him, he
15:18
Speaker 1: you know, he helped me figure out. He taught me
15:19
Speaker 1: so much about writing, and taught me so much about
15:22
Speaker 1: videos and all these things. And then once you know,
15:25
Speaker 1: it came time for my album, he'll say his two
15:28
Speaker 1: cents and then he encourages me to find myself. And
15:32
Speaker 1: I think that that is the healthiest thing that you
15:34
Speaker 1: could ever do for any of your artists. And you know,
15:37
Speaker 1: after I you know, I wrote my records and I
15:39
Speaker 1: wrote things, and I came back, I would come back
15:41
Speaker 1: to him and play it. And I would go away
15:42
Speaker 1: and I would write and I would come back to
15:43
Speaker 1: him and play it, and you know, he would give
15:46
Speaker 1: me his opinion, and he still that he gives me
15:47
Speaker 1: his opinions and things like that, but he allows me
15:50
Speaker 1: to be my own artist. And I think that that's
15:52
Speaker 1: amazing because you know, I've been in two groups before
15:55
Speaker 1: the situation where people wouldn't care about what I thought,
15:59
Speaker 1: They didn't care about you know what I wrote. They
16:01
Speaker 1: didn't even encourage me to write, you know what I mean?
16:04
Speaker 1: So literally it I mean, I'm not gonna get all
16:07
Speaker 1: way into it, but like I mean, it wasn't abusive,
16:11
Speaker 1: but it was stifling, you know what I mean. They
16:15
Speaker 1: didn't encourage me. Remember one time, for example, I went
16:18
Speaker 1: up to you know, the person who was over my
16:20
Speaker 1: last group, and I was like, hey, I have an
16:22
Speaker 1: idea for a line, like what do you think about this?
16:24
Speaker 1: And they tapped me on my should just said no, baby, no,
16:29
Speaker 1: like seriously, And people don't realize how the things like
16:34
Speaker 1: that can really they can damage somebody. Like it made
16:37
Speaker 1: me feel like, okay, whoa So to be in a
16:40
Speaker 1: situation now with in the group, yes, as the brown
16:44
Speaker 1: skin growing group, it was that is a whole other story.
16:47
Speaker 1: We need the whole other But for me, but it's
16:50
Speaker 1: not about beage girls, brown girls, blue girls, green, it's
16:54
Speaker 1: not about that. It's about you know, if you work
16:57
Speaker 1: hard and you have talent, I think that that should
16:59
Speaker 1: be showcase and that's always been important to me. But um,
17:03
Speaker 1: it feels great now to be in a situation where,
17:05
Speaker 1: you know, with Chris and with my management Tina and
17:08
Speaker 1: Brittany and my label Atlantic and Chris Brown. They encouraged
17:11
Speaker 1: me to be the best version of me and to
17:13
Speaker 1: get all of my ideas out. And I appreciate it
17:16
Speaker 1: because I've been through through two situations who did not encourage.
17:20
Speaker 1: They feel like Christ because after all everything I mean,
17:24
Speaker 1: at the time, Chris was going through his problems and
17:26
Speaker 1: a lot of people wouldn't see per se Chris as
17:28
Speaker 1: a businessman or a label owner. You listen, but no,
17:34
Speaker 1: yes and yes, and you put listen here. When I
17:37
Speaker 1: first met Chris, I was still Enrich Girl. I was
17:41
Speaker 1: selling Rich Girl, and I was advised to not be
17:44
Speaker 1: around Chris. And I looked at them and said, you're stupid.
17:48
Speaker 1: I'm glad you did that. You know what I mean,
17:50
Speaker 1: because I don't. I can't. You can't judge people by
17:53
Speaker 1: things you know. If you don't know them, or you
17:54
Speaker 1: don't know their lives, who are you to say who
17:56
Speaker 1: they are, how they are. It's just I just didn't
17:58
Speaker 1: agree with that. That's not how I was brought up.
18:00
Speaker 1: I don't get down like that. And so all I
18:03
Speaker 1: saw was a guy who was talented and amazing, who
18:07
Speaker 1: who had my experience with him he had always been
18:09
Speaker 1: great to me, and he gave me an opportunity and
18:11
Speaker 1: I appreciated that more than I could ever express. So
18:14
Speaker 1: I started, you know, writing and working with him, and
18:18
Speaker 1: I you know, I asked him when I'm when the
18:20
Speaker 1: first I ever wrote with Chris. I said to him,
18:22
Speaker 1: I said, hey, I heard you about to start a session.
18:25
Speaker 1: I'm across the hall. You know, me and my group
18:27
Speaker 1: we're finishing our session. Cannot come and write with you?
18:29
Speaker 1: And he was like, yeah, cool, I'm gonna come get you.
18:32
Speaker 1: And I went. I told the wrest of the girls
18:34
Speaker 1: and said, hey, Chris said, we can write. Like Chris said,
18:36
Speaker 1: we can come and write. No, no, no correction. He said, yeah,
18:42
Speaker 1: y'all can come, right. I asked, because I'm not that girl,
18:47
Speaker 1: I'm not a shady girl. Off nah, and I went.
18:49
Speaker 1: I told all of them. I said, hey, Chris said
18:51
Speaker 1: the weekend write. One of the girls said she was
18:53
Speaker 1: tired and she was going to the hotel and going
18:55
Speaker 1: to sleep. The other two said, okay, cool dope. We
18:59
Speaker 1: went in start to work with Chris. And I remember
19:01
Speaker 1: Um Tank was in that session. Lonnie Barell was in
19:04
Speaker 1: that session. Kevin McCall was in that session and um,
19:07
Speaker 1: after a minute, I was throwing out lines and none
19:10
Speaker 1: of my lines got picked up. I was like, yeah,
19:11
Speaker 1: what about s S session? They were just like yeah,
19:14
Speaker 1: so don what you thinking about sets us up? None
19:16
Speaker 1: of my lines got picked up at all. And I
19:18
Speaker 1: remember after a minute, the other two girls they came
19:21
Speaker 1: up to me and they were like, Oh, we're going
19:23
Speaker 1: to um go have some drinks at the SLS down
19:25
Speaker 1: the street. You want to come now. I looked at
19:27
Speaker 1: him and I was like, nah, I'm straight, y'all. I
19:30
Speaker 1: do love that. But I was like, nah, y'all gonna
19:32
Speaker 1: have y'all drinks. I'm straight, Like I'm gonna stay here
19:35
Speaker 1: and right with Chris Brow. I stayed and here we
19:38
Speaker 1: are five years later and just from being around him,
19:41
Speaker 1: and I tried to get a placement on graffiti. I
19:43
Speaker 1: didn't get no placements on graffiti, but I was at
19:45
Speaker 1: that studio every day, you know what I mean. And
19:47
Speaker 1: when it came down for a Fame and Fortune, and
19:49
Speaker 1: Chris gave me the opportunity to write on fame, to
19:51
Speaker 1: ride on fortune, and I had seven placements on Fame
19:54
Speaker 1: with him, seven placements on Fortune with magic number. It
19:57
Speaker 1: really is like it's a it's a blessed. The girls
20:00
Speaker 1: are sick right now. Chris don't rep his label the
20:04
Speaker 1: way he needs to, because I wouldn't know Chris had
20:06
Speaker 1: artists if I didn't hear from you really Ken when
20:08
Speaker 1: he come up here. But it might be us to
20:10
Speaker 1: him wanting them to shine on their own. He does.
20:12
Speaker 1: He's really big on that and directing the videos. That's
20:18
Speaker 1: a big co sign. CO signs are important. But the
20:21
Speaker 1: thing is I I think that it's it's really important.
20:27
Speaker 1: It's just for me and I can't speak on Kevin,
20:29
Speaker 1: I can't speak on any of the other artists. But
20:31
Speaker 1: for me, by myself, I think that the best thing
20:35
Speaker 1: that my my label, on my team and Chris can
20:37
Speaker 1: do for me is allow me to find myself because
20:41
Speaker 1: for so many years I didn't have the opportunity to
20:43
Speaker 1: do that. Do you feel like when you first got
20:45
Speaker 1: signed as a solo artist you were very shy and
20:48
Speaker 1: timid and not sure like what you wanted to do?
20:50
Speaker 1: Because if absolutely a whole lot more. Yeah, absolutely, I mean,
20:54
Speaker 1: but groups do that to you. Groups do that to you,
20:57
Speaker 1: and and when you don't have three other girls or
21:00
Speaker 1: around you to pick up the slack in areas that
21:01
Speaker 1: you're a week is I I hate you. But people
21:06
Speaker 1: would say, like, you know, Seven's really talented, but I
21:08
Speaker 1: don't feel like I know her. She doesn't seem like
21:10
Speaker 1: she opens up and it seems like you just all
21:12
Speaker 1: of a sudden, Okay, this is who I am. I
21:14
Speaker 1: mean when when you have friends call you live on
21:16
Speaker 1: air and be like, girl, are you dating such and
21:19
Speaker 1: such a text? By the way, people were mad about
21:21
Speaker 1: that that we did that, but I don't know what
21:22
Speaker 1: they were mad, like, y'all don't understand, Like I wouldn't
21:24
Speaker 1: have done it if I thought Seven would be mad.
21:26
Speaker 1: He is my friend in real life, so and I
21:28
Speaker 1: love coming up here with y'all. So I wasn't. Yeah,
21:30
Speaker 1: it was in Detroit. He was like, seven got a
21:32
Speaker 1: listening session in the studio in the hood. I'm going
21:34
Speaker 1: I'm like, all right, well I see them all you happy? Yeah,
21:37
Speaker 1: and you fell asleep. But it's okay. But he played
21:41
Speaker 1: the song on his Instagram. He said, you was gonna
21:43
Speaker 1: be on it? What's that? Yeah, it's for my album
21:45
Speaker 1: on the Verge. It's a song called Been a Minute
21:47
Speaker 1: And I wrote the song. Okay, y'all tell me this
21:50
Speaker 1: have you ever received or sent a text like after
21:54
Speaker 1: you know, you weren't dealing with somebody for a minute
21:56

21:58
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it ain't no screen. Do you see him
22:00
Speaker 1: on Instagram or something? Right? But you look good? He
22:03
Speaker 1: looked good. They actually looked good, and you get that
22:05
Speaker 1: text like hash stranger, how you've been? What up? So
22:08
Speaker 1: that's what the record is about. And I love it.
