  Speaker 1: Quille O'Neill. He talks about actually getting his master's degree
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: and paying for fifteen of his friends to get theirs too.

  Speaker 1: is he doing that for himself, he's also going to
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: make sure that his friends get there as well. Here's
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: what he had to say. Then the guys who are
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: we're doing deals will be like, hello, schek, how what
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: are you doing? And then they would turn away and
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: look at my lawyers and my accountants and all those guys.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: So I said, oh, you guys, don't think I'm in charge.
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: You guys don't think I understand the lingo. So when
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: got my masters from the University of Phoenix. University of
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: Phoenix is an online program mostly, but I went to
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: the head officials and said, I don't want to do
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: an online I want somebody to teach me in the class.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: Then came back and said, unfortunately, we can't sell up
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: a classroom from one guy. You need fifteen people. So
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: I paid for fifteen or my friends to get the masters.
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: Dropping a clue the box as you kill O'Neil man
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: he interview on the b Better Off Shows. That's how
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: you change the narrative. If your chain, if your cause
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: after all those material items from now on, if you
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: want to stunt, that's how you stunt. That's a flex.
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: How many jobs are you creating? How many educations are
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: you providing through scholarships? Are just straight up paying for
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: people to get through school? That's how you flex. Traping
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: to close box for shock again, man man, shock different. No,
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: one can never take your education at all. Right now,
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: Cardi b has accepted a plea deal over that strip
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: club fight that happened back in twenty eighteen, and she
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: did say that those incidents don't define her. She provided
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: a statement to USA today. She said, as a mother
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: to practice that I'm trying to instill in my children,
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: but the example starts with me. I've made some bad
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: decisions in my past that I'm not afraid to face
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: and own up to. These moments don't define me, and
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: they are not reflective of who I am now. I'm
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: looking forward to moving past this situation with my family
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: and friends and getting back to the things I love
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: the most, the music and my fans. So she was
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: originally from the original indictment from twenty nineteen, featuring twelve
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: charges that included two counts of felony, attempted assault, and
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: various lesser charges in connection with that fight. So now
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: she has pleaded guilty for that. So she's actually sentenced
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: to fifteen days of community service. What kind of community
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: service they're gonna have Cardi do? What they're gonna make
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: Cardi do. But I'm happy that that situation turned out
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: for the best. Yeah, they could probably have her talk
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: to kids in different schools. She just gave out one
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars to the BRONC that I don't count
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: some type of community girl school. No no, All right,
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: Now r Kelly's victim has broken her silence. The Jane
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: Doe that took the stand after his guilty verdict. She's
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: the one that said that they had tex hundreds of
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: times when when she was fifteen years old, and according
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: to her attorney, she said, Jane is pleased with the
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: result and grateful to the jury for convicting r Kelly.
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: This verdict is twenty years in the making. Nothing will
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: restore Jane's childhood or the dignity that Rklly he stole
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: from her. He has forever damaged her life in an
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: unimaginable fashion. R Kelly was finally held accountable for his actions.
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: Justice was served. Now As for the victims, she's at
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: peace and staying close to her family and taking some
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: time to process the pain that has played out in
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: the media for the last month. All right, So, as
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: far as r Kelly, after this trial, which was in Chicago,
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: he's off to Minnesota and that's where he'll be facing
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: more charges involving child pornography, coercion and so on. Yeah.
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: I'm in Minnesota too. Yeah, I've knew about New York
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: in Chicago. Wow, So that's the next stop alright. He
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: also has been injured in prison, reportedly, and as a result,
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: he's trying to use the injury to get out of
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: traveling to New York for an upcoming restitution hearing involving
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: his victim. So the team asked to judge yesterday if
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: he could appear virtually at the forthcoming hearing it's supposed
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: to take place on September twenty eighth. They said he
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: injured his leg and therefore it's difficult for him to

• 16:59
  Speaker 1: Let's get to some front page news. W NBA Finals
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: the Suns beat the Aces one oh five seventy six.
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: The Aces lead the series to one and a Thursday
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: night football, the Kansas City Chiefs beat the Charge just
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: twenty seven twenty four. Not what else we got? Easy?
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: All right? Well, Republican Governor Greg Abbott had over one
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: hundred migrants who crossed the border dropped off near Vice
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: President Kamala Harris's residence at the United States Naval Observatory.
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: And Kamala Harris was in Houston just recently, and here's
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: what she had to say about migrants and about the
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: borders being closed or open, and Vice Verson Harris said
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: that the border is closed. Is the border closed? Do
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: you believe that the borders closure isn't open? It's open,
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: not close, The borders open, The border is open. Do
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: you believe that all the migrants believe that the border
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: is open? Yeah, everybody, The border is open. It's open
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: because we end we came in free, no problem. And
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: then but it's open for you to come illegally, right, yes,
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: it literally, that's true. And you came illegally, yeah, became
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: illegally not legal. Hey, as I said yesterday, what I
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: think what the Governor Abbot doing is genius, man, because
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: one of Kamala Harris's roles is the overseas efforts to
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: resolve problems at the border, and she said this past
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: Sunday that the border is secure and the border is closed,
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: and Governor Abbott then wanted to show her, no, it's
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: not okay. So it just dump put them, put the
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: migrants in front of her crib. And the VP lives
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: in the sanctuary states, so they should eventually be fine, right,
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: these migrants, if these sanctuary states are what they say
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: they are, you know, it's just sad because I was
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: reading about this one man. He's from Venezuela. They said
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: that's one of the largest growing migrant groups coming over
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: to the United States. And he's talking about his experience
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: of trying to get over to the United States after
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: a turbulent trip, trying to get past, you know, in
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: the waters and dealing with brian from Mexicans and all
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: kinds of things, and then you finally get here and
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: then they're like, hey, would you like to go to
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: a sanctuary stay. They have no idea, what's going on.
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: And I think that's the hardest part is that these
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: are actual, real people and they've been going a lot
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: of times. People are fleeing, they're looking for a better
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: life to provide for their families. It's not like their
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: criminals are not human beings. And then now they're in
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: the middle of this whole political drama and being used
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: as pawns. That's right. The reality is neither side wants
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: illegal immigrants entering this country. And you know, in particular,
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: I'm reading about this guy missing Naza. It's a whole
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: article in the New York Times where he's talking about
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: his journey, and you know, he's expressing gratitude. He's one
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: of the people that ended up in Martha's Vineyard when
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: they sent the planes over to Martha's Vineyard. And he
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: did say that they're treating them very well. He said,
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: we're getting food, clothing, all our needs are met. He said,
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: I love Massachusetts. I want to start working as soon
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: as possible. A lot of people are people who really
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: want to come and make an honest living and do
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: something for their families, and now they're just being you know,
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: but being sent to know they're being sent to sanctuary states,
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: like why would you want them to be in Florida
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: or Texas or Arizona where they're clearly not welcome, Like
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: we shouldn't want them to be sent to these sanctuary
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: states because once again the reality is neither side wants
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: illegal immigrants entering the country. Them's just act like they care,
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: but let's not act like President by then Vice President
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: Kamala Harris both told illegal immigrants don't come into this country.
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: And hopefully this makes Democratic Republicans work together to come
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: up with some real border control because I don't care
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: who's in the office, the border has never been secured,
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: and that is being exposed in a way we've never
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: seen one of the problems. You just can't drop more
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: of without creating resources for me. You just can't have
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: a bus and just say okay, here you are. They're
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: sitting in the sanctuary states. If the sanctuary states are
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: what they say they are and they can take care,
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: let them know, they gotta have a job. You just
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: can't drop more of Kamala Harris's house and be like
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: do you yeah, they're trying to be funny, like the
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: thing is at least be like, okay, there's a hundred people.
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: They will be arriving in one week, and that way
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: they can set up someplace for them to stay, work, food,
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: all of those things that are necessary resources. That's all
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: I'm saying. I'm not saying that they can't go to
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: sanctuary states, but don't try to do this and use
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: human beings as a pawn with type of both sides
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: are using them as parts. And I agree with you.
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: That's why during Donkey to Day, I specifically say they
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: should give these sanctuary states that heads up, you know why,
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: so the world can hear these sanctuary states say no.
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: It's just like when you call people to vote to
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: the Senate, you can see who's really who people. You
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: can see who's really about that action, who's really about
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: that life? When you vote, it's the same thing. Call
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: these sanctuary states bluffs because the truth to the matter
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: is none of the Republicans are Democrats. Don't want to
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: legal immigrants in this country. All right, Well, here is
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: more on officers and migrants and Kamala Harris. We're just
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: watching our residents. Did we were notified that they were
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: coming with these big grants showing up? Do you know
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: where they where they need to go from here, or
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: you're just trying to make sure they stay away from
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: the everybody safe and away from all right, And a
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: news reporter, I actually tried to speak to some of
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: these migrants, and here's what happened. Partly, do you speak English, glass,
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: they're on theirs Venezuela, Venezuela, everybody from Venezuela. Any, okay,
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: thank you? Yeah, but I'm sorry today, so I'm not
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: gonna be able to translate all that. And I wouldn't
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: even try because it wouldn't look good on Life TV.
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: But as you can see, they're coming across here, all
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: of these migrants. It appears to be at least twenty
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: or so at this point. We have two buses. We
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: know from Governor Habitt's office there have been about seventy
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: nine hundred migrants on over one hundred and ninety buses
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: coming to d C. More than twenty two hundred on
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: more than forty buses to New York, and of course
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: about five buses to Chicago with a little over three
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: hundred migrants. News report to try to talk to advice
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: Brother Nakamala Harrish yesterday, and she did the same exact
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: thing to say hey, VP Harrish. She said that what
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: was said was close. She said, no English. You know,
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: as far as Democrats, they're blaming the Republicans for holding
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: up a plan. They're trying to provide legal potentiscs and citizenship,
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: you know, Dreamers. That's been something that's been on the
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: table for a long time, providing a pathway for Dreamers
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: to get citizenship and for people who have temporary status
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: to be able to work. And so that's been held
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: up as well. So that's another problem. And that's why
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: I said, hopefully this makes Democrats and Republicans work together
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: to come up with some real border control, because I
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: don't care who's in office, the border has never been secure,
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: and that is being exposed in ways we've never seen before.
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: All right, well that is your front page news, all right. Now.
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: When we come back after John Boyega will be joining us.
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: You probably know him from Star Wars. He's in the
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: new movie Woman King. That's out right, gotta he'll see
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: that this weekend and we're gonna talk to him when

• 24:10
  Speaker 1: But the Woman King breaking they cloned Tyrone. Yeah. Yeah,
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: I got a lot of stuff moving up. Yeah. Man,
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: was just trying to come back with with the madness
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: after the pandemic, especially know what happened to our industry.
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: So yeah, we're just coming back with the projects now.
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: So for people that don't know who you are, tell
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: them who you are and how you got started into acting. Um. Yeah,
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: so I'm John Boyeger. I'm thirty years old. I got
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: started in a British movie called A Tap the Block.
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: Didn't really do well in the UK, but got really
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: appreciated in the States, so that expanded my opportunities. Came
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: down here and then auditioned, failed, tried again, and then
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: I got Star Wars and then from Star Wars, that's
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: where I kind of got the opportunity to be on
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: the main stage or commercial and shit, we got you
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: into acting, Like what was the actor that said I
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: want to do this because of that? You know what?
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: It started off as a social thing. I didn't really
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: fit in into all of the groups, wasn't really too
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: It wasn't smart enough for the academics, isn't tough enough
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: for the big boys. And at the same time, you know,
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: I wasn't skillful enough for football and ship. So I
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: was then just with the performance kids. And they had
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: girls too, so I was just like, yeah, this is
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: better anyway. So I was just like, yeah, I'm just
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: gonna chill here. And then from there, actually the passion
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: came after that actually started to take it seriously after
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: going through a few things and then just making some decisions.
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: That's what I was then produced to you via Star Wars, Like,
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: do you feel like that their whole conversation about you know,
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: a black person being a lead in Star Wars, do
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: you think that overshadowed your actual abilities that you that
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: you showed in their movie. Um, yeah, yeah to a
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: certain extent. Nactually, I think with episode seven with Force Awakens.
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: I think people thought I was that guy, which I
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: found kind of hilarious, Like they thought that I was
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: the character, Oh my god, and that was that was
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: kind of confusing. And then you've got two more movies
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: and then people like yourselves are introduced through the franchise.
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: It's hard to kind of have that separation and that detachment.
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: But I don't I don't blame it. I think that's
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: the natural kind of that's how the process goes with
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: franchise films, Like it's hard to detach yourself from the character.
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: So yeah, that's definitely a struggle and brand conversation though,
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: because you see what's happening with Harley Bailey with The
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: Little Mermaid. I saw that. I've just put a comment
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: on a page. I'm so proud of her. I left
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: a message. I'm so proud of what I saw in
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: that trailer. Yeah, I didn't imagine what she must be
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: going through. They have so many people. Yeah, and I
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: know that's why I think it's important that you spoke
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: up and spoke out about it, because it really did
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: bring attention. I feel like I feel like I spoke
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: up about it and after in the aftermath, I've been
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: seeing a lot of corporate companies speaking out as well,
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: showing support and love, because I think it's important for
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: the companies actually to back the people that they cast
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: in the movie, just so that they feel safe and
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: feel protected. But yeah, it's it's it's tough, but I
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: suggest this time, rather than fixating on the negative for her,
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: we need to celebrate it and just blind out the
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: negative noise. That's that's what we need to do this time. Yeah,
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: that's all you say. You said that you were the
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: only chast member whose experience with Star Wars was based
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: on their race. Yeah, but especially during the time of
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: episode seven, just being the only that everybody else who
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: was like, you've got this role, You've got this first role, congratulations.
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: Whereas with me it was what, you know, what Haley's
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: going through. It was the backlash. And you find yourself
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: when you look at yourself and your opposite Oscar is
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: Daisy Ridley, you go, wow, I'm different, Like my introduction
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: into this industry is different. How come Moscar is not
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: getting this response? How come Daisy isn't? And that just,
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: you know, set you apart a little bit. Like what
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: you said about celebrating it, right, because I think sometimes
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: we tell ourselves sometimes that hey, maybe I'm just being
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: used as au pon for diversity, right, But it was
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: that way. Sometimes it does because for example, if you
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: look at my movie that I've just done, breaking, if
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: you look at when you go and see the Woman
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: King Um, I hope that you will find that raw
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: this kid can actually act. And what I mean act,
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: I mean acting is a skill set different roles. You
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: can change your acts that you can change the way
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: you walk and talk and stuff. And then when you
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: look at back at the Star Wars movies, it will
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: confuse you because you're probably going to be like, Rah,
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: why don't they use this guy's ability? And that's where
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: the pawn feeling comes from. You feel like, well, on set,
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: they're not really using my ability. But at the same time,
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: you want to put me in all the marketing posts
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: just to get the black people excited. But then when
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: the black people come see it, it's like half excited.
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: They always give us these half rolls, like damn man,
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: I thought he was gonna be the hero. It's always
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: a debate about we thought we were going to be
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: the one, whereas in you know, the other side, they
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: put the cape on the brother. He's killing it. You know,
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: he's got the storylines, he's got the moves and all
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: that kind of stuff. So you know, sometimes he's a struggle.
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: You get Star Wars for people that don't know breakdown.
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: You know how that whole process came about. Um, So
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: it's actually funny. I was I was shooting a movie
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: called Imperial Dreams with Roe, Timmy and Rot Timmy, Timmy,
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: Lena Falcons Fair Ye Rot Timmy Man. I like the
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: way he responded to that song man, but we're gonna
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: we're gonna have a conversation about that song anyway. But
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: we we worked on a movie together, a great guy
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: that's my bro, and he got he got an audition
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: for a secret project and I put him on tape
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: for it. Helped him, help put him on tape. And
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: when I looked at the paper, I was just like, wait,
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: this is sounding real Star Wars esque, Like, how come
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: my name got a call back for me? Like, what's
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: going on with that? So I called my agents, said
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: what's going on? And they're like, they haven't come to
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: London yet because it was this kind of worldwide search.
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: And then they came out, came to London randomly. I
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: got a call from my agent for me and he's
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: been with me since our sixteen and he was like, yo,
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: you've got the audition. I was like the one. He
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: was like yeah. And then I was capitaled into nine
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: months of just back to back auditions. Had to lose
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: weight and stuff because I was a bit chubby coming in.
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: You know with your Star Wars, yeah I was. I
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: was into that. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I was into the prequels.
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: I had the dark Moore figures. So I was just like, nah,
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: this is legit and parctically about to be rich, you
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: know what I mean? You know that feeling you know
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: when you get the first call, but then you have
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: to do you get a piece of the merche. You
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: don't get a piece of We don't get none of
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: the much damn. You don't want to use your likeness
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: and everything face none of the merch. And see they
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: said you want three movies, you better be appreciative that
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: we gave you this oppy and you know me, then
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: I was hungry, you know, white crusted in the corner
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: the mouth, that's hope hungry, and I wanted the opportunity
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: so I was just like okay, cool, free picture deal um.
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: And then one thing led to another such a long
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: process and then I ended up ended up getting the role.
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: But it was like, yeah, it was it was. It
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: was a dare in time because it's like the options
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: of your life. You're either going to be somebody or
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: you're gonna go back to the to the hustle. You know.
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: It's just so interesting to me because you know how
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: racist you gotta be the sea race in a fantasy movie,
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: whether it's Star Wars or a little Mermaid. We're talking
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: about fucking mermaid. It's a mermaid. It's a mermaid, bro.
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: You know. You know what's so mad? Sebastian. Sebastian the
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: crab was from the Caribbean, so you would you'd be thinking,
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: like anybody else around, there's probably gonna be black in
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: that Caribbean, you know, that Caribbean seeing stuff. But I
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: don't know, man, it just that's in there. They're killing
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: him right now. But but it's but it's nuts that
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: you know, it just reflects about how they would love
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: the world, you know what I mean, what the world
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: that would be good for them? Man? You know, if
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: you put the hair that's too tough. In their movies,
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: they go, oh my god, I feel so timidated by it.
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: I don't know what to deal about. And it gets
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: to be a big frenzy. And I think this time
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: for her, especially because it's a big Disney you know
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: how it is, man, this is they're probably gonna have
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: to change the much and make Ariel Brown on the
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: on the plush toys and stuff. We have to celebrate
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: what that is for her, you know. And and it's
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: a big it's a big move. How does that make
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: you feel? I'm sorry, how did that make you feel?
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: When you've seen the posters out there and you've seen
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: your face up there, but you know it's not gonna
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: live up to what's expected that they play. You gotta
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: play the game, man. But as you know, I was brewing, well,
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: you know, a little bit a little bit salty about it. Um.
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: But then but then again, it's the process of it.
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: I was like, I was kind of like, you know,
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: maybe on the last one, you know, they're gonna I'm
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: gonna be signing with my character. I'm gonna do something
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: maybe on the last one. Um, you know, that was
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: that was a struggle as well to a certain extent.
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: But did anybody from within Disney reach out to you
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: after and say, like, have any comments or say you
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: know what you're right? Anything? No? No, no no, in retrospect.
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: But but I heard that's that's the kind of policy.
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: We don't say, We don't respond nothing. But when I
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: when I see them, man, I'm gonna talk to them.
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: You know you're not going back to you I read this.
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: You don't want you're not interested in going back? Then
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: Star Wars franchise. No, no, no, no, man, I think
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: my time is started and the contracts done. So to
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: be honest, it's not even a conversation that I don't
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: even think they're even curious about me coming back or
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: anything like that. So all right, now we're here to
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: talk about Breaking and The Woman King. Those are both
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: based on two stories. Correct, the Woman King to a
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: certain extent of Breaking? Yes, okay, yeah, so tell us
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: the story of Breaking. That's something Michael Kay Williams, isn't there,
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: Micha Kay Williams fellow Brooklyn, Brooklynite like myself. So, um,
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: can you tell us about Breaking and what your role was?
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: And there you were a marine? Yeah? Yeah, so I
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: play I play a war vet called Brian Brown Eastley
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: who comes back to society after serving. And then when
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: he comes back, he's going through several different issues, financial councies,
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: his daughter can't afford much's accommodation issues, and then it's
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: also suffering from PTSD. And then he makes an extreme
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: decision in the crescendo of all these stresses to go
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: into a weld's fargo bank, hold it up and try
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: to get his money back from veterans affairs, because, as
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: you know, when the vets come back home, they rely
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: heavily on the various affairs for checks and clearances for
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: their day to day needs. And unfortunately, through ad me
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: and through mistakes, you know, Brian's case is kind of dismissed.
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: And then he's left in this position where he's kind
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: of like, I don't know, I don't know what to do,
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: and with the PTSD, with the bullying, what's been going
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: on with looking thinking back to the stuff that he's
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: been through, he goes into that world's fargo and holds
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: it up, And how can you never understand it? The
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: human being? How can you never understand what that man is?
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: But we aren't we in our bubble though, we're in
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: our bubble and we have our own stresses, and sometimes
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: it's hard for us to have that sympathy and perspective, right.
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: But with this, with this man, he wanted to be heard.
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: That was the main thing. And you know, even the
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: bank tellers that were in there that were they were
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: like that this was the nicest man that he'd done
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: a bank heights in the right way. There's a scene
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: in the movie where a customer, real customer, calls the
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: world's fargo because yeah, he takes the call, like because
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: he doesn't you know, he's a different kind of of
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: bank robber in that and the media might be like,
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: man holds up banking. Oh they were, you know, and
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: there's something for us to learn. They packaged it in
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: that way, whereas in this movie goes into nuances in
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: the details of that. And blessings to Michael Kay Williams like,
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: I requested him to come on, come onto the film
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: set him and let our begged him to come to
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: join because I know we ain't got the coin to
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: pay for Michael Kay, but this is just a small
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: little bag. Come down and do a few weeks of work.
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: And he was like, yeah, bet I'll come down due.
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: Did you know him? I didn't. I watched him in
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: the wire before, Okay, just like his work. I watched
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: him in the Wire, I watched him in Board or
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: k Empire. So I was just like, yo, bro, He's
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: an amazing person. Isn't it great to work with people
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: who you like in real life too? Yeah? And he's
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: chill and and he's giving, and he's and he's open
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: and honest. You know, for me, you know, the work
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: is better when we all kind of get along. You know.
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: I was working with him tell us some of the
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: stories on the set because you know, we missed a brother. Yeah.
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: The first time I worked with him, well, the first
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: time I saw him after they came on set. He
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: walked into my trailers dental because they thought it was his,
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: you know, and that low budget kind of picture. Man,
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: the trailers looked all the same. And he walked in
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: and he was like yo, bro, and he was like yo, like,
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: oh shit, you're on the project. He was like yeah, man.
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: I was like, bro, like, thank you so much for
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: coming down because you didn't really have to um. And
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: he just told me about you know, the speech that
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: I had done at the protests and he told me
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: that he messes me. That's the way. That's the reason
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: why I came down, Like it's a strong message for
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: the movie and he just wants to do the work
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: and be a part of it. Man, And it was
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: all love from there. What um, what What impact did
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: playing that role have on your mental and emotional well being?
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: I think it gave me perspective. I've never had anybody
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: in my family that served UM, And I've never had
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: anybody in my family that's made that commitment to any
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: Western government. My family they're a bit black as hell,
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: and they got opinions, um and so so in that
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: I can't relate directly to certain things that they went through.
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: But after being in these shoes, UM, yeah, Man, the
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: intensity of being on set was what it was because
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: we had to have like a theater approach, like you know,
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: Director Abby was like, you know, the space is yours?
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: Do you like you're you're the one owning the space.
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: The cameras will follow you, and so you had to
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: have that kind of approach to it. But apart from that, man,
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: I think I think it was chill. I was actually
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: going out a lot during the filming process because days
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: would be Yeah, on purpose, the days would be intense,
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: and I'd be like, when I come back, make sure
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: my boys are in the crib, come back home, chill
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: with them for a bit, and have that balance so
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: I'm not I can take off the character and it
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: can just enjoy my life a little. Oh, let me
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: talk to you about there for a second. So a
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: lot of times when people get deep, that deep in character,
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: they they want to stay there and tell the roll
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: is over. But you chose to release it, like what
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: every other day? Every day? Wow? Every day every day Brian,
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: Brian has to go in. And the funny thing is
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: is that it kind of impeded into your When it
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: impedes into your life is when I had to shave
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: my hair down every day because that's what Brian was doing.
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: And you know, shaving the hair down, you trying to
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: go out and stuff. You've got the ball dark hair
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: like that doesn't really match up sometimes. So I had
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: to put the hat on just to be you know,
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: I put the chains on, make sure I'm just different
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: from who Bryan is, and just to have that balance.
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: And then just having the house for my best friend
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: was there, two of my boys were there, were all
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: day and just in the house together, and that just
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: made the process a little bit more easy. I'm not
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: bringing it home. How hard did it to get back
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: into the character of Brian? Once you do that? The
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: environment was set. Man, It's like there, you see the set,
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: you see the cameras, man, you see in the Kobahari like,
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: you know, preparing and you're like, yeah, nah, I gotta
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: get in moan and get in action and the stories
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: about him, so we jumping in and out is a
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: skill set. You should definitely what your parents think about.
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: You wanted to be an actor, but when you were younger, um,
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: definitely some concerns. Um well, mainly because in school. My
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: behavior at school was a bit was a bit tricky,
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: So there was some concerns imitating those white people too much. No, no, no,
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: I was imitating the white people. I was just doing
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: my thing. But you know how it goes, man. You get,
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: you just get, you just get a bit a bit
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: too cheeky for your own good. So they were worried
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: that it'd be a distraction. You know, if you're not
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: taking it seriously, it's just going to be a distraction.
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: But then after my dad started to see I was consistent.
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: He started taking me to the auditions, and he took
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: me to my first agents me and he was like
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: a full supporter. Um and then I got Star Wars
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: bought in my house and then it was like shot.
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean? That is that moment? Is
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: that moment, so you know we're good to go from there.
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: You know, I hate how this country treats his veterans.
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: I can'tunderstand it, you know what I mean? You know,
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: just to just to go off and fight for a
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: country and then come home and don't even have a
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: place to stay. It is just ridiculous to me. Right,
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: But what light do you think this movie is gonna
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: shine on? What veterans like it? What's the message you
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: hope this? I think I think we need to understand
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: the complications of that position, and we need to understand
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: what happens mentally to people when they go to war
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: and they experience certain things, and that integration back into
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: normal life is a deep struggle and it affects all
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: aspects of their life, including mentally, and for a lot
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: of us, we can't relate. We ain't been in the
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: front lines like that, and and that in itself means
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: that I hope there's an empathy and I hope that
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: also they go to see it for the entertainment qualities
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: of its great performances in it. I think ABBR director
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: does a phenomenal job. And it's Michael one of Michael
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: Kay with him his last last roles, and I think
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: it would be great to the man show the man love.
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: Where were you when you found out that he passed
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: and what was your initial reaction? I was I was
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: in London and I be the director of Breaking at
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: text Me and I just didn't believe it. I thought
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: there was probably a little bit of a confusion, you know,
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: you know how it goes sometimes. I think they've said
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: I've died like twice during my career. Yeah, you're gonna
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: die twice. Digitally, that's just gonna be Yeah, you're gonna die.
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: You're gonna die twice. That's but that's how you know
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: you're successful though. Yeah, yeah, they're gonna kill you and
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: they're gonna say you part of the LOOMI So there
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: the two things. Once you get that you're making that
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: money money, yeah yeah, yeah, you on top. But you know,
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: it was it was shocking to me. Just just to
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: hear his demise. I didn't know anything about his personal
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: life like that, So for me it was just a
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: bit of a shock. Yeah. Did any of the standards
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: you took during like the whole BLM movement that moment
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: in time. Did that impack you in Hollywood? Absolutely definitely?
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: But I say, um, I'm matured a little bit through
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: the process, because i mean, like you gotta think about
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: during summer, we was at home and we were seeing
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: black bodies consistently being harmed or injured in a certain way,
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: and then that spontaneously went out to the to the protests,
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: um and and made that speech. You know, there's going
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: to be some people in Hollywood that don't necessarily get it, um.
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: And I'm probably gonna be like, yeah, all right, they're
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: not going to come to you and say we're not
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: working with you. You just might not hear nothing, you
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: know what I mean. You might not see the audition
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: come in. Um. And I think and I think definitely
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: that that happened. But I'm not I'm not mad at
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: that because I'm hearing this industry to exist that way,
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: no more like howards existing during episode seven, Force Awakens,
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: Like I was playing doing everything by the rules. And
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: I was, you know, clean cut and trying to be
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: you know, good to everybody. You know where to Beyonce.
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: It can be nice in this ship all the way,
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: all the way you face the Star Wars. Yeah, I mean,
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: but to a certain extent, you get to you get
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: too comfortable with everybody you they can take the they
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: can take the mick, you know. So definitely, there'll be
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: much more of a right now. There's much more of
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: a specific um gratitude for now attracting the people in
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: Hollywood after me, which is what happened you creating your
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: own too, Yeah, yeah, because breaking I'm a producer on that.
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: I've got my own production production company and we developed
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: a good few projects. And now I'm just like, okay,
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: you know, after after that happened, Jamie Fox caused my phone.
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: Now now we mess with you, Viola Davis calls me.
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: Now we mess with you, Prince by the Wood, Yeah,
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: we mess with you. Come on, come onto the black sets, man, coming,
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: come and film with us. And that I just felt,
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: I just felt a love from that. I was gonna
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: ask you, like, what's more fulfilling doing, you know, a
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: role like in the woman King, or like going a
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: role in Star Wars the woman King, man the woman King.
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: You got to think about this, bro. I know you
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: as well. You come from a brown skin, dark woman.
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: You see how that's happened, you know, in terms of
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: the dispariting roles, in terms of the opportunities and roles
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: for the dark skinned black woman, that in itself has
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: been a struggle. So for me, sitting on a set
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: where I'm seeing the top ten or even fifteen to
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: twenty women in this picture are black and dark skin
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: specifically was special to see. And they went in. It's
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: not like just a propaganda kind of stick the black
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: people in that they were trained for six months. They
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: transformed their bodies, you know. I mean I came in
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: just being the King. I didn't have much to do physically.
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: They were handling everything and it was you know, it's
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: inspirational towards women. Yeah, and you know that's a that's
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: a good thing. When I saw I was like, I
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: thought it was a new black man at the trail.
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie, but that's what I get that.
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: But that's what we're used to. But that's why we're
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: trying to break that. We deserve the full buffet. That's
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: we deserve to have the tyler perries of the world
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: and then have the the the other side, then have
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: the women kings, and and that the woman kings based
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: you know, loosely based on the true true story. So
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: it grounds you more into the realities of our world.
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: But you know, it begs the question why can't we
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: have both for people that don't know, Well, it's about
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: the Agogea, the all female military unit in the Homie,
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: who were basically tasked with protecting their kingdom there at
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: a very difficult time because their involvement in the slave
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: trade um and their and their involvement, I mean the
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: negativity of the times. As times changed, the king Gezo
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: has just risen to power and he's trying to decide
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: how to you know, how his nation can move forward.
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: Do we continue a part of this negative slave trade
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: or do we kind of like diversify and go into
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: palm oil and all these different things. And that comes
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: with internal civil conflicts, and it just shows you the
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: journey of that. But Viola Davis y Beast, Hey, Viola
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: Davis Beast is Madness is a transformative role for a
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: lot of people. And it's got two certain bed Lashana Lynch,
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: Sheila at him. Um, this is the big Boy project.
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: I can't evenly It's a budget to each other, isn't
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: Wasn't that the regime you just discussed. Isn't that who
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: the Dolja big self? Well no, no, no no, well well
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: yes they said that. They said it was a loose
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: they were loosely based on them, so I mean, which
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: which is cool to see how those references go. But
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: this is this is no fantasy. I mean this is yeah,
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: this is real swords and spears and just you know,
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: you don't get a suit in this one. Was the
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: training like for you getting ready for this role? Luxurious?
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: He said he had to do much. I was the king,
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: the king, Yeah, yeah, robes, you know, picking through robes.
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: I got the blue one and nothing. I didn't have
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: the running for what they were run. They were run.
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: They had to do it. So they done, they done
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: for They done most of the done, most of the work,
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: you know, all the most challenging part, you know, playing
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: the king picking the ropes. There was no points that
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: made you emotional in the movie. Well that's not a challenge.
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: That's great. Definitely, definitely there's there's a part of of
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: praise and adoration that the the black women have to do.
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: And they were singing and they were dancing, and that's
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: another thing that on this movie is not, you know,
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: slave pawn, it's not. It has moments of togetherness, sisterhood, dancing, singing,
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: and those moments were definitely emotional seeing them singing, seeing
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: them dancing. You know, I'm Nigerian as well, so I'm like, yeah,
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: I love the vibe of the culture in it. Why
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: did you think why do you think the king didn't
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: want to fight with the foreign country at for us?
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: I think that's just the were do you mean the
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: fin enemy? I'm sorry, but fight with fight? Why do
• 45:03
  Speaker 1: you think he did not want to fight with them
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: at first? What do you mean didn't you want to
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: fight them? What the what the wine? Oh no, it's
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: a negotiation at that time. Remember they're involved in the
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: slave trade. So it's like, is that the part where
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: you're talking about when I think going to wars? She
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: was like, do you want to go to war? She
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: was like, well, sometimes we have to fight for something. Yeah.
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: But when you go and watch the movie, it is
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: so nuanced, it's very nuanced. It speaks to the diaspora,
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: it speaks to multiple different tribes and cultures. It speaks
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: to internal civil war. So when he's saying go to war,
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: it's not always just white people. It's like black people too.
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: This this script is way more nuanced than people think
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: it is. Now. You know, the marketing strategy, you just
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: gotta get them happy with the spears and the you know, viola,
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: get the action. But when you come in and watch it,
• 45:50
  Speaker 1: it's a whole more. It's a more nuanced take. Would
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: you say this is the favorite movie you've done to date? Yeah? Really? Yeah? Yeah.
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: I enjoyed my experience and it took me back to
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: first starting out. And I like being on a set
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: whereas black women and stuff, they tell you when you
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: got crusted in the corner of your living dry when
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: other cultures they'd be leaving you to hang out there,
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So there's something nice and
• 46:15
  Speaker 1: homely about about having a cast of women that reflect
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: on how you are raised. Question, right, you played the
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: king in that movie. This is something I've been exploring,
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: Like you know, I feel like I feel like patriarchy
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: is a system. I feel like the divine order of
• 46:27
  Speaker 1: things is women are really the leaders in the foundation.
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: That's my personal opinion. When you do a role like
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: that and you see them in their position and you
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: in your position, or what did that make you think
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: of the power dynamic? I think it's a reciprocal energy
• 46:41
  Speaker 1: that we need. And then you need to get into
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: more of the specifics of who the woman is. Um
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: can't just go woman and then the man and then
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: place them in positions. I think everybody has unique skill
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: sets that could be utilized or used and that's what
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: you're seeing this in this movie that even in the
• 46:54
  Speaker 1: court of Chambers, you know, with opinions, there will be
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: females there and there will be males, and to get
• 46:59
  Speaker 1: that sense of different a different perspective. But what's funny
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: it is some females and males will agree, you know
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: what I mean, and they differ in their in their
• 47:06
  Speaker 1: opinions still, but it made me think, like you just
• 47:09
  Speaker 1: we just got to work together, Like we've got to
• 47:10
  Speaker 1: come to this point where there's a level ground that
• 47:13
  Speaker 1: you can collaborate to make society better. Society starts with families,
• 47:16
  Speaker 1: good families. So yeah, it just makes you think about that.
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: When did you decide to start a production company. Um,
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: I think it was bubbling from being on set of
• 47:26
  Speaker 1: Star Wars and not being involved in the big boy
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: conversations that were kind of cool to hear though, Like
• 47:30
  Speaker 1: I would hear jj Abrams and Cafee talk about movie
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: moments that I knew would be historical for the for
• 47:36
  Speaker 1: the world, but they're just chatting about it in a
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: tent like it's casual. And I was just like, Rah
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: would love to be part of the creative process. And
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: then I was like, you know, if I wait for
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: the phone to ring, movies like Breaking and all these
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: roles that I've been able to do, even they clone
• 47:48
  Speaker 1: to her own, Like it can't. It can't just happen
• 47:51
  Speaker 1: that way. I have to actually have more of a
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: proactive approach to to my job. You gotta tell me
• 47:55
  Speaker 1: about this day clone to her own. The title alone
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: sounds phenomenal. I know, Jamie FOXXS. What is that movie
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: about a pimp, a prostitute on a drug dealer find
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: out that some white people doing some crazy shit under
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: the ground in the hood. That's what I'm gonna tell you.
• 48:10
  Speaker 1: The Pimp Jamie Fox. Jamie Fox is the pimp Tianna
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: Paris's prostitute and I'm the drug dealer. And it's about
• 48:18
  Speaker 1: it's basically a hood Star Wars. It's said it's hood
• 48:20
  Speaker 1: Scooby Doo. It's see that. It's a mystery movie about
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: the last people, the last people you think team up,
• 48:26
  Speaker 1: the last sort of people you think with team up,
• 48:29
  Speaker 1: is about them actually stepping up and handling a bit
• 48:32
  Speaker 1: of a sci fi mystery situation which you don't you
• 48:35
  Speaker 1: don't get to see. And Jamie Jamie Fox, Jame Fox
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: is hilarious, hilarious, and you know, that's a real conversation
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: going on though, Like, and that's been going on for
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: some years. Like people think that there's actually folks getting
• 48:44
  Speaker 1: cloned out here. Yeah, people who I thought I knew
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: yesterday and then the very next day they were totally different.
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: And I'm like, they must have got cloned. I want
• 48:54
  Speaker 1: to know where them facilities are, though I ain't heard
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: about nothing much from that. You believe in it. It's
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: a certain next in. I mean, you never know, That's
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: how I believe it. You never know. But then I
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: don't know facts now do it? Yeah? You did, but
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: you said that to account Polish you did three completely
• 49:07
  Speaker 1: different movies. I just wanted to change and did you
• 49:09
  Speaker 1: see that? And then they clone Tyrone. I play about
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: four or five different characters, one of them seventy eight.
• 49:14
  Speaker 1: So this is all giving me the opportunity just to
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: do what actors do. Actors not supposed to be playing
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: themselves in the movie. Damn Tyrone. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 49:24
  Speaker 1: but so funny. The movie is strange. It's not even
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: about that. It's just it's just it's just wait. I
• 49:28
  Speaker 1: just can't wait for people to people to see it. Now.
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: When people talk about diversity in Hollywood, what does that
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: actually look like? It means that you actually try and
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: find the talented individuals from groups that have been kind
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: of forgotten and dismissed and not being given the right opportunities.
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: It does not mean you just put a whole bunch
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: of black people or quotas in it. It means you
• 49:48
  Speaker 1: actually try and actually find the homegrown talent people are
• 49:50
  Speaker 1: passionate and who are working that don't get those opportunities,
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: that don't have the cousin or the auntie in there
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: that says, oh, you can come and assist for this actor.
• 49:59
  Speaker 1: People that don't have that clean cut door. It means
• 50:02
  Speaker 1: that we're struggling with trying to bring in those people.
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: And this is in behind the scenes as well as
• 50:07
  Speaker 1: in front of the camera. It's about bringing in those
• 50:09
  Speaker 1: people who are skilled but who do not get the
• 50:11
  Speaker 1: opportunities based on that disparity. There, you had a very
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: old soul man only thirty. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm fair.
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: You had a very old soul like oh yeah, yeah,
• 50:21
  Speaker 1: I was gonna ask. Yeah, I've heard that before. I'm
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: not cool. How do you feel like how your art
• 50:28
  Speaker 1: now is not being released in major movie places anymore
• 50:32
  Speaker 1: and sometimes you just going digital, sometimes just Netflix, sometimes Hulu.
• 50:36
  Speaker 1: How does that you know because you grew up going
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: to the movies? Yes, so how is that feeling? The
• 50:40
  Speaker 1: Woman King is different because it's only in theaters right
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: now on the sixteen I've been I've been blessed. Breaking
• 50:46
  Speaker 1: was only in theaters as well the first two weeks,
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: and then I think goes to digital this week or so.
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: So I've been uniquely blessed in that in that sense
• 50:54
  Speaker 1: that I've had. I've been able to shoot three projects
• 50:57
  Speaker 1: during the pandemic, and two of them have been exclusively
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: released in in movie theaters, and Breaking got the big
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: AMC deal. So we were in a good few AMC.
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: So I personally can't complain, but I do think it's um.
• 51:08
  Speaker 1: It was worrying for a lot of people at the
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: beginning the pandemic who was like, wait, wait, wait, what's
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: they They're not gonna come to see us, they don't
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: want to come see us no more. For one hour
• 51:16
  Speaker 1: and thirty minutes, I'm like, damn, like um. And it
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: makes you think, and it makes you respect what you know.
• 51:22
  Speaker 1: Denzel Washington has done, Tom Cruise, Tom Hanks, you know
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: the old school box office, you know, moneymakers who would
• 51:28
  Speaker 1: make movies an event and makes you leave your house
• 51:31
  Speaker 1: if it's cold suddenly raining. It makes you respect that
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: more in an ever change in time. But it's it's
• 51:36
  Speaker 1: an adjustment, It's an adjust What are you before? Oh movies? Yeah,
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: I still like go into the movie. Yeah, see like
• 51:43
  Speaker 1: the woman King in the movie. No, no no, no, you
• 51:45
  Speaker 1: You've got to see the woman King in the movies.
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: I mean there's there's scope, there's there's also the what
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: it what it does to you experience? The immersiveness into
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: the I mean you you at home, the microwave going off,
• 51:57
  Speaker 1: you took it to someone you text it on Instagram,
• 51:59
  Speaker 1: It's like there's much more of a focus and a
• 52:01
  Speaker 1: fixation and in experience, what are your dads about? You know,
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: the whole conversation about how they say British actors playing
• 52:08
  Speaker 1: Black American roles. You know, what do you think about?
• 52:11
  Speaker 1: I think I think number one, the first approach is
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: to listen to each other because there might be a
• 52:15
  Speaker 1: perspective that we are missing right coming in coming into
• 52:18
  Speaker 1: the game, and we are not coming into games to
• 52:21
  Speaker 1: steal anything. In fact, it's impossible to steal a role
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: by the way, roles are only offered, So we come
• 52:26
  Speaker 1: in there to just work. But sometimes you don't know
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: whose toes you're stepping in if you don't actually listen
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: to the people in the folk you know that are
• 52:32
  Speaker 1: on ground to tell you. But in that I think
• 52:35
  Speaker 1: also on the flip side, I couldn't relate to the
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: conversation because I'd be honest. African America has been nothing
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: but love to me. I lost my accommodation in La
• 52:44
  Speaker 1: my airbing be in La. I was staying in the
• 52:47
  Speaker 1: streets for about two days off of Crescent Heights Boulevard.
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: I went to some party I met who is now
• 52:52
  Speaker 1: my best friend Asia, African American young girl from Inglewood,
• 52:55
  Speaker 1: who was just like, yo, I loved your movie. I
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: got I got your movie on red Box and I said,
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: I don't have nowhere to stay. She goes, you can
• 53:01
  Speaker 1: come stay, comes, stay in my crib. I say, where's
• 53:03
  Speaker 1: your crib? She goes Inglewood that I was living in
• 53:05
  Speaker 1: Inglewood for a bit. And so for me, it's like
• 53:07
  Speaker 1: I've met and connected with people who have helped me,
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: the people who have helped me, mostly being an African American,
• 53:12
  Speaker 1: so I don't see that side of the conversation. So
• 53:14
  Speaker 1: sometimes I'm not in the best position to communicate because
• 53:18
  Speaker 1: it's been a lot of like, you know how, whether
• 53:19
  Speaker 1: it's Leana Way, whether it's anybody Jamie, it's just been love,
• 53:22
  Speaker 1: you know, and support. And I think on set we
• 53:24
  Speaker 1: collaborate a lot, even with roles as a black brick
• 53:27
  Speaker 1: that people will feel like I wouldn't understand the role.
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: Sometimes my African American brother don't understand the role too,
• 53:32
  Speaker 1: and we help each other. We're like, oh, because we
• 53:34
  Speaker 1: weren't there. At the end of the day, we are actors.
• 53:36
  Speaker 1: We have to portray something that we don't We can't see.
• 53:38
  Speaker 1: So I think that it's it's a good conversation to
• 53:40
  Speaker 1: have and we should stay listening, stay collaborating because the
• 53:43
  Speaker 1: Civil War shit looks weak, looks petty and weak, especially
• 53:46
  Speaker 1: when it comes to the to the mainstream game, it
• 53:48
  Speaker 1: looks a bit it looks a bit dead. But if
• 53:50
  Speaker 1: we can talk and have a conversation about it and
• 53:52
  Speaker 1: no one feels like it should be an attack thing,
• 53:54
  Speaker 1: you know, let's let's let's keep it cordroal so we
• 53:56
  Speaker 1: can actually have the conversation and perhaps we'll learn a
• 53:59
  Speaker 1: few things. Have there have been roles that you missed
• 54:01
  Speaker 1: out on for scheduling purposes, like man, I really wanted
• 54:04
  Speaker 1: to do this, but I'm over here filming Star Wars,
• 54:07
  Speaker 1: or during Star Wars. Yeah, I mean during Star Wars
• 54:11
  Speaker 1: it was like I say, I say as a joke,
• 54:13
  Speaker 1: but it was like luxury jail, you know, because it's
• 54:15
  Speaker 1: it's nice. It's nice to be in a movie like this.
• 54:17
  Speaker 1: It's nice to know your bills are probably gonna pay
• 54:19
  Speaker 1: for nick eight years. It's nice to know that. But
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: there are some roles where you're like I can actually
• 54:24
  Speaker 1: do that. They don't believe I can because I'm just
• 54:27
  Speaker 1: I have to do these Star Wars movies. No harm
• 54:29
  Speaker 1: to Star Wars. It takes like eight nine months to
• 54:31
  Speaker 1: film one. So after that, I'm trying to go on
• 54:32
  Speaker 1: holiday with the poison just chill. I'm trying to go out.
• 54:36
  Speaker 1: But yeah, you do feel like that. You're like, damn, man,
• 54:38
  Speaker 1: these roles are so nuanced. But if anything, I've been inspired.
• 54:41
  Speaker 1: What are some things you wish you could have done
• 54:42
  Speaker 1: during that time but you just couldn't because of whatever reason.
• 54:45
  Speaker 1: And You're like, man, I've forgotten now. But it was
• 54:48
  Speaker 1: a good few things that come back. They were mostly
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: indies or mostly indies, and I would have loved the
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: opportunity to work with Jordan Peel a bit as well.
• 54:56
  Speaker 1: I'm sure. Well we've been speaking for a bit and
• 55:01
  Speaker 1: I've always eat and you know, we took a meet
• 55:03
  Speaker 1: I took a meeting with him and went down to
• 55:04
  Speaker 1: see him at Monkey Poor and I've always said, hey, Jordan, man,
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: just put me in the just put me in a
• 55:09
  Speaker 1: far distance, you know, while Dannie Colue has put his
• 55:11
  Speaker 1: head to the side. I'll just see her or ever something,
• 55:14
  Speaker 1: you know, just put me in there. Because I really
• 55:15
  Speaker 1: like his work. So yeah, maybe one day. You know,
• 55:17
  Speaker 1: we were talking about like the Little Mermaid backlash and
• 55:20
  Speaker 1: Star Wars backlash earlier. How much of that do we
• 55:22
  Speaker 1: how much of that do we know is real? Because
• 55:24
  Speaker 1: I feel like that's what I've been thinking about, That's
• 55:26
  Speaker 1: what I've been thinking about. I've also been thinking about
• 55:28
  Speaker 1: these bots that pretend that they're black. Yes, we need
• 55:31
  Speaker 1: to be careful, and I've been seeing it a bit
• 55:34
  Speaker 1: more so the journalists. Something that they're doing is because
• 55:38
  Speaker 1: of the pressure that's coming from sometimes they're editors. The
• 55:41
  Speaker 1: clickbait is there to irritate you and make you angry.
• 55:46
  Speaker 1: So sometimes they will nactor or celebrity will answer a
• 55:49
  Speaker 1: question to do with race one week, they will release
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: like several different parts of their answer throughout a six week,
• 55:56
  Speaker 1: throughout the time of six weeks, just to have a
• 55:58
  Speaker 1: steady story going on. And sometimes it's not accurate to
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: what the conversation is. But I think we need to
• 56:03
  Speaker 1: have an audience that's more aware of that. Y'all need
• 56:05
  Speaker 1: to be a little bit more smarter. Stop being triggered
• 56:07
  Speaker 1: because some of these things, as you said, that it's fake,
• 56:09
  Speaker 1: like they're they're trying to m to stir the pot
• 56:12
  Speaker 1: to a certain extent. So we need to we need
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: to fixate on a celebration like we did with Black Panther,
• 56:16
  Speaker 1: like it was it like that celebration was so mad
• 56:20
  Speaker 1: that anybody was talking, any suthing that stuff that was
• 56:22
  Speaker 1: negative was was you could dismiss that. So let's celebrate.
• 56:26
  Speaker 1: Because it's hard for me to believe that people care
• 56:27
  Speaker 1: this much about the Black Mermaid because when I when
• 56:29
  Speaker 1: I started a trailer come out on my on my algorithm,
• 56:32
  Speaker 1: it was all off. Let me tell you, man, her
• 56:34
  Speaker 1: name Ariel, and she's been swimming to the surface. Man,
• 56:37
  Speaker 1: that son been hitting her for a bit. I've been
• 56:41
  Speaker 1: hearing her. She's supposed to have them them dreads. That's
• 56:44
  Speaker 1: how it was supposed to be in the first place.
• 56:46
  Speaker 1: And if you should know stories like give also let's
• 56:48
  Speaker 1: talk about let's talk about her talent. Yeah, she's amazing.
• 56:52
  Speaker 1: She's a mermaid, you're a thing. She's she's like, she's
• 56:58
  Speaker 1: up there. Man, she's got it. So I'm you know,
• 57:00
  Speaker 1: just loving support tooever and keep on doing the thing.
• 57:02
  Speaker 1: I'm definitely gonna go see that. I'm gonna take all
• 57:04
  Speaker 1: the black little kids go see it. Probably book they
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: are you know, you know how we do we make
• 57:07
  Speaker 1: it so easy for coin to pro nowadays, Coe pro
• 57:11
  Speaker 1: coin to pro. It was a system that actually used
• 57:14
  Speaker 1: to disrupt like protests back in the day doing he's
• 57:17
  Speaker 1: doing the civil rights are Like, that's what they would
• 57:18
  Speaker 1: would do. They would send people to these yah yeah,
• 57:21
  Speaker 1: yeah do that nowaday Yeah. I mean, I mean it
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: makes sense that actually copying and past in that physical situation,
• 57:27
  Speaker 1: it makes sense that they would do that online. And
• 57:29
  Speaker 1: I've been thinking about that too, because sometimes I'd make
• 57:31
  Speaker 1: the mistake of highlighting something that was triggering. But it's like,
• 57:36
  Speaker 1: if you didn't highlight it, bro, no one would have
• 57:38
  Speaker 1: seen that. Yeah, I had to go stupid. So you know,
• 57:42
  Speaker 1: we have to we have to try and finess it
• 57:43
  Speaker 1: a little bit more. There is a game to it.
• 57:46
  Speaker 1: What's the biggest misconception about being black in Hollywood? I
• 57:51
  Speaker 1: don't know, man, I guess there's a lot, but I'll
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: keep myself to myself. I don't really try to get
• 57:58
  Speaker 1: into people's in too much. I don't really know. Um,
• 58:03
  Speaker 1: I guess it. Maybe you're an asshole. I mean, you
• 58:05
  Speaker 1: always got proved that you're not an asshole. The first
• 58:07
  Speaker 1: three weeks of meeting somebody, but I'm sure it's in
• 58:09
  Speaker 1: your position to you, like, you know, you're going a
• 58:12
  Speaker 1: day or wherever it is, and it's like the person's
• 58:13
  Speaker 1: kind of like, are you one of them? You know
• 58:16
  Speaker 1: what I mean? And the first three weeks is proving
• 58:18
  Speaker 1: that you're just yeah, you're not the date partner. Look
• 58:21
  Speaker 1: oh yeah, yeah yeah, but you're married, yes sir, all right,
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: all right, say the same way for twenty four years.
• 58:32
  Speaker 1: I think that's fantastical. Black, Yes, sir, yeah, I absolutely,
• 58:37
  Speaker 1: because I've heard you speak. I've heard you. I've heard
• 58:40
  Speaker 1: you speak before about you like your blackness and stuff.
• 58:41
  Speaker 1: So I thought you was one of the ones that
• 58:43
  Speaker 1: we're gonna, you know, sacrifice your your loins to continue
• 58:45
  Speaker 1: in this race. So I'm like, okay, let me just
• 58:48
  Speaker 1: check it. Well, yeah he said that, he said, Now
• 58:52
  Speaker 1: what happened? Now? You you speak about your blackness quite
• 58:55
  Speaker 1: a lot, and then obviously I've seen your interview something like,
• 58:57
  Speaker 1: let me just check that, make sure he's oh yeah, yeah,
• 59:00
  Speaker 1: that's yeah. Yeah. Because I judge brothers like that too.
• 59:03
  Speaker 1: I mean, I'm I'm gonna judge. I mean, anyone can
• 59:05
  Speaker 1: do what they need to do. But I feel like
• 59:07
  Speaker 1: when you speak in a certain way. Black men gotta
• 59:09
  Speaker 1: be a black Yeah, when you spoken that, you're spoken
• 59:12
  Speaker 1: in that way. Yeah, I'm like, let me just check
• 59:14
  Speaker 1: my man. My man's devoted at home. People so black,
• 59:19
  Speaker 1: but then they sleep white. I'm like, I mean a
• 59:22
  Speaker 1: white woman. Yeah, I have once once, I dated on
• 59:25
  Speaker 1: one once when I was younger. Um, it was all right,
• 59:29
  Speaker 1: but it was we was just chilling, you know what
• 59:31
  Speaker 1: I mean. It was just it wasn't nothing serious like that.
• 59:33
  Speaker 1: So but naturally, you know, could you bring a storm
• 59:36
  Speaker 1: troop at home? I've said it openly. It's like it's
• 59:40
  Speaker 1: just a preference, Like like I like my women black,
• 59:42
  Speaker 1: you know, and I feel just just separate from you know,
• 59:47
  Speaker 1: a political statement or anything like that. It's just they
• 59:50
  Speaker 1: fine as hell. They you know, men in levels gotta
• 59:52
  Speaker 1: be over seventy five percent, you know what I mean.
• 59:54
  Speaker 1: Thickness gotta be there, style gotta be there. We gotta
• 59:56
  Speaker 1: laugh at the same jokes, we gotta bumped in the
• 59:58
  Speaker 1: same music. It's just gotta be a flow, that's right,
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So you can't have conversations
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 1: about white supremacy tearing apart black families, but you don't
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 1: even you're not even trying to create. Try I'm trying
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 1: to have some conversations where I can say, took my
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 1: ship behind closed doors. I'm trying to say, woman, I don't.
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 1: She's like, yeah, baby, yeah, you're right, You're right. That's
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I needed to understand a
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 1: black man's anger frustration. I needed to understand when I
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 1: satin dudes walk into the room and the energy ain't right,
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 1: and she's just like, calm down. But I need that.

• 1:01:10
  Speaker 1: let's Simba, ladies and gentlemen, let's do it. Man. Simba
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 1: is one of the most phenomenal lyricists rapping today. First now,
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 1: that is not an understatement. First off, I got to
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 1: send a shout out to my dog because you've been
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 1: supporting me for a minute. And it's it's a lot
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 1: of people that's you know, at your stature, that feel
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 1: like they gotta wait to something blow up to post
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 1: it or support somebody. So I truly respect you on
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 1: another level, not only just what you did for me,
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 1: what you do in the therapy community, your book, everything.
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 1: I really got a lot of respect for you, Youtuo.
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 1: I respect what you do a lot. And also my
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 1: waffle color friend over here, he's a legend. And again
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 1: and I saw Dave Chappelle showing you a lot of
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 1: love too. That's my guy. That's my guy. Dave actually
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 1: brought me on stage. He had me like rapping for
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 1: ten minutes or one is Specials I think is about
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 1: to come out soon, So let's go back. Let's put
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 1: because I don't know who Simba is. Yes, sir, where
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 1: are you from? How'd you get into rapping? And let's
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 1: start from there front the Bay Area and my mom
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 1: was a real estate agent, so my mom moved around
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 1: a lot Trenton, New Jersey. I lived in Ben Salem
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 1: for a little bit um Atlantic City, Vegas, LA. So
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 1: we moved around a lot, and I would always notice that,
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 1: like Bay Area music, it would hit a ceiling like
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 1: it wouldn't really go past. So when I moved around
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 1: as a kid, I'm like, damn, Like I start wanting
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 1: to write music and everything, and I was like, you
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 1: know what, I gotta make my music connect to everybody,
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 1: and being on this side as a kid, I gravitated
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 1: the whole a lot, just how he moved, the things
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 1: he said. I related to it big all, even a
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 1: sauce money. I used to listen to money, you know
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 1: what I mean. And that's just something that I wanted
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 1: to incorporate in my music when I started creating for myself.
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 1: What got you into rapping? Because they said you were
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 1: nice in sports? Yeah, man, I got caught cheating on
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 1: my SAT test. How'd you get caught cheating? We didn't
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 1: go to talk about that. I had a nice young
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 1: lady that was doing something for me, and we both
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 1: got caught up, you know, so I couldn't I couldn't
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 1: go play ball after that. So through that process, I
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 1: was sitting at the homie crib for a year, stubborn,
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 1: not trying to listen to my coach and everything. And
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 1: I didn't even like my coach at the time. I
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 1: still think that it was Racistata. Yeah, I just I
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 1: was stuck in the crib and my homie crib and
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 1: he had a studio, so I just start rapping in
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 1: his studio every day, and I fell in love with
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 1: music more than I did with basketball at the time.
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 1: So I was like, you know what, I'm gonna just
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 1: do this. I'm more concerned about the young lady. Man,
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 1: what happened to her? Don't talk about her. You got
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 1: to give her a job or something. Man, she cheated
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 1: on me, cheating she could go to hill see all
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 1: this down. So let me ask you this. So you
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 1: also wrote for a lot of artists too, right, So
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 1: what's your goal always for you to be the artist
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 1: or did you enjoy being in the background more. At first,
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 1: my goal was just to get the job done. So
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 1: if I had to write for somebody, if I had
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 1: to hold somebody bags. If I had to turn the
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 1: session up and just be the fun person in the room,
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 1: I was down to do whatever I had to do
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 1: to get to where I want to be. So that's
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 1: how I ended up writing. Because a lot of people,
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 1: you know, don't write their wraps. Well, you're surprised by that.
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 1: The amount of people I didn't write their own music,
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 1: I would say, what surprised me more was people that
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 1: can't rap not writing their raps because they got a
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 1: good Yeah. Yeah, that's that's what shocked me the most.
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 1: But at the same time, as I'm learning this is
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 1: a business, right, so you got shows, interviews, you on
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 1: the road. Sometimes you really ain't got time to sit
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 1: down and write off goddamn day like that. So I
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 1: had to learn that. It's even from myself, and I'm
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 1: starting to look for writers to write for me because
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 1: I ain't got time to just be sitting in the studio.
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 1: No more hooks and just ideas period now versus I
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 1: talked to QUENTN Miller last night. Just shut up, man,
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 1: I'm serious, last night, you're talking hook No, I'm gonna
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 1: always write my verses. But I just didn't play that
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 1: out because people I write everything, like all my verses,
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 1: all my freestyles. I write everything. But at the same time,
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 1: it's things I may miss. Somebody might have an idea
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 1: or something that I'm not thinking of, you know what
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 1: I mean, and if that could compliment me. It's a business.
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 1: We need to hit records. I just ain't trying to
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 1: be freestyle man. And I'm so glad you said that,
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 1: because I always when I first heard you, right this
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 1: is a while ago, I'm like, you know, this dude
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 1: is really dope, but I hope he can make songs
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 1: and I can't. I'm old enough to remember these super
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 1: lyricists that we used to love their freestyles on the
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 1: Clue mixtapes and everything, but then they couldn't make songs,
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 1: are they now? People know I could rap, but I'm
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 1: growing and it's like, at this point, I gotta deliver records,
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 1: you know, And that's what we're giving them. What results
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 1: take time This Friday is is actual songs. I'm not
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 1: just rapping on beats. I'm rapping on records. I love
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 1: the meaning behind the title results take Time. Then you
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 1: got songs like Overnight and Find the Way and Sacrifice.
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 1: It all tells this story of results taking time, but
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 1: you feel like you're getting the results you're looking for. Definitely,
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 1: I'm somebody that embraced the process all the way around.
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 1: So it's like I remember doing shows in the Bay
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 1: I had like three people in there. Move to La.
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 1: Ain't nobody knew me. I'll do shows at the Rocks,
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 1: You'd be about fifteen people in there. I just sold
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 1: the Rocks y'ard last month. Wow. So that was a
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 1: real like accomplishment for me because it was letting me know, like, Okay,
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 1: things is working and you're growing as an artist. Let's
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 1: just continue to get better. Now, what's your relationship with
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 1: Stat quote? Because on the project, say, man, you said
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 1: he told you something that you wasn't feeling. I don't
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 1: want I don't want to make any say it. I
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 1: don't want to. I can't remember what I told me
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 1: my music would never hit and if I ain't have
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 1: a gimmick, then people wouldn't give you. Yes, it's crazy
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 1: how you ain't nobody list to make you feel like
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 1: you can't go where you trying to get. Now, watch
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 1: that quote, get that shot Stat And I got a
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 1: love for Stat right. It wasn't like me trying to
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 1: like tear him down or nothing. But at the same time, right,
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 1: he's an older black man and I was a young
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 1: black man, still a young black man, but at the time,
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 1: it's like, bro, don't just tell me where I'm going
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 1: wrong without giving me some advice on how to get
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 1: it right. You're just tearing me down in front of people.
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 1: So we used to be in these offices and he
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 1: had just oh, you ain't got no identity. Oh you
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 1: need to grow your hair out, you need to do this,
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 1: you need to do it. I'm like, bro, why I
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 1: gotta do that? Like, what's what's another way we could
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 1: do it? You never tell me. He didn't know though
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 1: exactly you know what I mean. So it's like, don't
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 1: put what happened to you on me, Like, help me
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 1: get it right as a young black man. Don't just
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 1: tear me down in front of these people and ruining
• 1:07:31
  Speaker 1: my opportunity because yours didn't work. So what's the connection? Though,
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 1: I was like, what's doing The stat worked at the
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 1: label I was originally, yet before last he was at
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 1: Colombia zan over there. Yeah, he had little zan as
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 1: his artists. I used to imagine me coming in the
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 1: office rapping, how wrapping he got little zan and you know,
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 1: telling me what I'm doing wrong? You got a point?
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, get it right? That it ain't.
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 1: But my boy sent it to him because he cool.
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 1: Was that he there Marcus, but he sent it to
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 1: him and he felt the way. But it's like I
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 1: felt the way. It's kind of grazing stack called. He's
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 1: a rapper, rapper, so it's like, yeah, I'm like I
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 1: thought I would feel like he would see you man
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 1: that used to tell me I'll never sell a ticket. Yeah,
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 1: I guess you look at it like he was in
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 1: your position. So the fact that he got power, he
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 1: should be pulling up all the he knows. Yeah, I
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 1: get it back. I watch you do it with people
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 1: like you'd be giving people real estate game. There's a
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 1: lot of people I didn't talk to this. Envy put
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 1: me on this. So Envy didn't put me on that.
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 1: That's what we gotta do as a people. I wouldn't move.
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 1: We got more with Simba when we come back, and
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 1: let's get into a single. This speech is Roddy Richards call,
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 1: never changed. It's a breakfast clocal Morning. Envy and Angelie Charlemagne,
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 1: the guy we are the Breakfast Club was still kicking
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 1: it with Simba Charlemagne. Yea, I love never end up broke,
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 1: you know. And on that record, you know the hook
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 1: his money can't buy back time? Yeah, if you could
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 1: buy back time, what time would you buy back? Trying
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 1: to build a relationship with my dad. My dad went
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 1: to jail when I was one, and he died in prison,
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 1: and he died on some like some jankie. Like we're
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 1: still trying to figure it out, you know what I mean.
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 1: So I never really got like a father figure in
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 1: my life. My mama was like both roles. I probably
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 1: wouldn't have been a rapper if I had my dad
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 1: in my life. You think, yeah, I probably would have
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 1: done something different. But me looking for a male father figure,
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 1: I looked up the rappers, but not having a dad
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 1: in my life, it kind of like hindered me a
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 1: little bit. You know, I didn't go to college. That's
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 1: something I probably would have did. Respecting women a lot more,
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Coming from the Bay, we
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 1: kind of come from this pimp culture, you know, and
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 1: ogs tell us, oh, do that, but it's like, man,
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 1: it ain't it ain't really the way we should be
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 1: operating now here as black men. I was gonna ask, No,
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 1: I'll go back to your father real quick. I'm glad
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 1: that you you said that because there's so many men
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 1: that I started to have that conversation now about wanting
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 1: that connection with their fathers. You know. I mean I
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 1: told people all the time the first time I had
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 1: to break through and therapy was realizing that the daddy
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 1: issues that I that I had. And I'm just like,
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 1: I'm just glad that you're saying that out loud, because man,
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 1: we'd be acting like father's a disposable Noah, bro eat
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 1: that like I just had a son. So it'd be
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 1: making me aware of like, Okay, let me not smoking
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 1: my videos, you know what I mean, let me not
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 1: drink so much around him, Like let me do certain
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 1: things to where he could look at me as a
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 1: role model. I ain't had it. You know, you FaceTime
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 1: me one day, man, and you you put me on
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 1: the FaceTime with the super down legendin't even doctor Drake.
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 1: What's getting that called me? When Drake called you and
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 1: say Y'll come to the studio. Let's do something. Everybody
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 1: shut up and sit down feeling me quit telling me
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 1: I need to make a Hi Fi record, let me
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 1: do me. But no, it was special because I actually
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 1: met Dre do key On, which is his nephew. I
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 1: met Keyan at the studio session. He was in the
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 1: room playing beats and I just went in there star
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 1: freestyle and he was like, man, I got to introduce
• 1:10:54

• 1:10:57
  Speaker 1: doctor Dre. I'm like, you know somebody, somebody that know

• 1:11:13
  Speaker 1: with Drake on the phone and Dre was like, man,
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 1: I seen your La Leakers freestyle, Like I didn't heard
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 1: a few things about you, like when I finished with
• 1:11:21
  Speaker 1: this super Bowl, I want to get in the studio
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 1: with you. So I'm like, bet. So the Super Bowl happened,
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 1: and I think it was two days later. It was
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 1: like a Wednesday or Tuesday or somebody was in the
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 1: studio with some people and Keian hit me. He was like,
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 1: I want you to pull up. He sent me the address.
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 1: I didn't even tell nobody where I was going. I
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 1: think they thought I was going in the bathroom or something.
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 1: I just got up. I just got up the left,
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 1: drove straight over there myself. Ye, straight by myself. I
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 1: ain't bringing nobody over there. Hell nah. I went over there,
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 1: and I was over there for about four days, and
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 1: we just was cooking, cooking, cooking, cooking, and then everything
• 1:11:58
  Speaker 1: he taught me, it is really what motivated this project.
• 1:12:01
  Speaker 1: He kind of like taught me how to act out
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 1: my lyrics and say things different. It's a song called
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 1: knt win for nothing that Charlotta Magne told me the
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 1: production sound cheap, so we had to beef up the
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 1: mix a little bit. But I don't know, and I
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 1: appreciate that. I appreciate that. But it's a song on there.
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 1: If you listen to it. Before I was with Drake,
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 1: I would have wrapped the first lyrics like I woke
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 1: up this morning with all these starts in my head,
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 1: jumped out the bed and stuff my tone edge. But
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 1: Drake taught me how to say it like I woke
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 1: up this morning when Harley starts in my head, jumped
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 1: out the bed and stuck my tone edge so you
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 1: could act feel me hitting my toe. He taught me
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 1: how to act out my lyrics and stuff like that.
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 1: And he also taught me that, like a lot of people,
• 1:12:42
  Speaker 1: beats be terrible. When you get around him and let's
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 1: start hearing the beach, he'd be like, damn, why I'd
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 1: even wrap on these others? You know what I mean.
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 1: But he's a goat. That's what made Kim Drake so
• 1:12:56
  Speaker 1: shut out the Drake Man. He always teached me a lot.
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 1: He gave me a lot of game. It be times
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 1: where I'll be lost on what to do and I
• 1:13:02
  Speaker 1: text him and he hit me right back. Do this,
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 1: do that? Say this. You're probably gonna kill me for
• 1:13:07
  Speaker 1: saying this. Don't do it. Now we're on the breakfast club.

• 1:14:50
  Speaker 1: He's getting that donkey, that donkey that don't don't don't
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 1: don't don't donkey the other day rights the breakfast club. Bitches,
• 1:14:58
  Speaker 1: you can call me the donkey of the day like
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 1: I mean no harm. Yeah, stuck here today for Friday,
• 1:15:03
  Speaker 1: September sixteenth, goes to an unnamed patient in India who
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 1: had to be hospitalized after allegedly shoving a deodorant canna
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 1: stuff up his ass okay, where it remained for three
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 1: weeks before doctors removed it. It's freaky, friggy, freaky Friday.
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 1: I'm not making this up, ladies and gentlemen. Okay. A
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 1: man shoved the eight inch deodorant can up his butt
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 1: and left it there for three weeks. Either two things
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 1: are happening here. This man was extra horny or extra
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 1: stink Okay. Do you know how fed up you gotta
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 1: be with the smell of your own ass to just
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 1: shove a deodorant can up it and leave it there
• 1:15:37
  Speaker 1: for three weeks. All right. This man must have gotten
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 1: called stink ass, funky ass, musty ass. Somebody must have
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 1: told him to go wash his ass so many times
• 1:15:45
  Speaker 1: that he decided the only way to course correct the
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 1: problem was to stick a canna deodorant up his button.
• 1:15:51
  Speaker 1: All Right, You gotta understand whoever made any of these
• 1:15:54
  Speaker 1: products first, whether it was soap, deodorant, douche, they were
• 1:15:58
  Speaker 1: absolutely fed up with how humans on this planet was
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 1: smelling at the time, all right, that simply just had
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 1: to be the inspiration. So when someone takes one of
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 1: these products and sticks it up their ass, I repeat,
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 1: it's either because they stink as how are they extra horny?
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 1: And it could be that he was extra horney, because
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 1: it is some extra horny people on this planet and
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 1: he might be one of them. Is this what the
• 1:16:17
  Speaker 1: world has come to imagine? Sticking some dub deodor and
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 1: up your ass? You know, you know, just just just imagine,
• 1:16:24
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. Men, are you know, on
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 1: this planet stick of cand of diodoring up their ass?
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 1: For what? All right? Secret has actually created a new
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 1: campaign slogan, and that slogan is strong enough for a man,
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 1: but made for those who want to be penetrated like
• 1:16:36
  Speaker 1: a woman. Okay, what kind of choices do you make
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 1: before you stick a can of deodor and up your erectum?
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 1: Do you think to yourself? Aluminum versus no alum, aluminum
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 1: traditional versus natural natural? Clearly his format choices can all right?
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 1: The roll up stick probably a little too wide now.
• 1:16:55
  Speaker 1: Doctors conducted several X rays which revealed that the young
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 1: man had a seven and a half inch deodor and
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 1: can large in this colon near his anus. Doctors believed
• 1:17:02
  Speaker 1: that he put the anti perspring up his anus, but
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 1: his reasons for giving himself the D and the D
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 1: being deodorant are unknown. I really have to know what
• 1:17:09
  Speaker 1: brand it was, okay, because what if it was Degree?
• 1:17:11
  Speaker 1: If it was Degree, I have a marketing idea. They
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 1: can do six inch cans, okay, because seven and a
• 1:17:16
  Speaker 1: half to eight inches that just seems massive. Okay, that's
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 1: actually my penis measurements. But instead of that, just do
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 1: a nice six inch can a degree and the slogan
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 1: can be Degree six inch spray for anyone in need
• 1:17:28
  Speaker 1: of six degrees of penetration. Okay, the deodorant business is
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 1: missing a lot of money, man, because clearly it's a
• 1:17:34
