6:03
Speaker 1: if I keep on believing in myself. And he's a believer.
6:07

Speaker 1: And he's amazing. He's amazing. Are you a believer, of
6:18
Speaker 1: course what you think, man, I believe, honey, I do
6:22
Speaker 1: believe you saw you envision yourself and this being who
6:26
Speaker 1: you are now. I prayed and I've been blessed, you know,
6:30
Speaker 1: and touched by angels. And because there was a time
6:34
Speaker 1: in my life when I thought I was going to
6:35
Speaker 1: leave the planet, you know, just not I was gonna die.
6:39
Speaker 1: I did, like four or five years ago. But you
6:41
Speaker 1: was sick or something. Wasn't sick. I was just special. Yeah,
6:44
Speaker 1: I just was going through vocal things. I thought my
6:48
Speaker 1: voice had left me. My son kept saying, Mommy, your
6:50
Speaker 1: voice is still here and strong. But for me, it
6:53
Speaker 1: wasn't like I needed it to be. And all of
6:55
Speaker 1: a sudden it came back. But it came back at
6:57
Speaker 1: the age of seventy five. My voice came back like
7:00
Speaker 1: it was forty. It was. I was seventy one when
7:02
Speaker 1: it came back. I guess, did you do anything for
7:05
Speaker 1: that to happen? Like nothing? No, I was just living
7:08
Speaker 1: a good life, and all of a sudden, you're this
7:10
Speaker 1: closed up for me. You know. I have to be honest,
7:13
Speaker 1: because some people were at those shows when my voice
7:15
Speaker 1: was like what, let's pray let's pray for Patty. No,
7:21
Speaker 1: I'm not lying. I know my son's gonna get mad
7:22
Speaker 1: at me telling this, But to me, it wasn't what
7:26
Speaker 1: it wasn't what it should have been, what it could
7:28
Speaker 1: have been. So I lost some of it, but it's
7:30
Speaker 1: back now. So you wanted you maybe you wanted to
7:33
Speaker 1: die and you feel like you couldn't sing no more. No,
7:35
Speaker 1: nobody wants to die, okay, But I just felt like
7:37
Speaker 1: people were gonna start throwing eggs at me on stage
7:40
Speaker 1: and stuff like that, and that if I wasn't doing this,
7:43
Speaker 1: I might pass, you know, because this is my life.
7:45
Speaker 1: You lose something that you live, and that makes it
7:47
Speaker 1: feel like something. It makes you nervous saying you know
7:50
Speaker 1: it's gonna come back, It's gonna come back, And it
7:53
Speaker 1: did because I have a lot of peers whose voices
7:56
Speaker 1: they left and they never came back. So who am
7:59
Speaker 1: I not to be touched by that? Sad bug? What
8:02
Speaker 1: about your PIDs who passed? When you see Miss Franklin
8:04
Speaker 1: and Diane Carroll, did that make you feel closer to God?
8:08
Speaker 1: Closer to what? Yeah? No, No, it's just that they
8:14
Speaker 1: were going through something, you know, and sometimes the wrath
8:16
Speaker 1: was going through things that people didn't even probably know
8:18
Speaker 1: she was dealing with, you know, and Diane Carroll, I mean,
8:22
Speaker 1: losing her. Also. It's like everybody's going too soon. But
8:25
Speaker 1: I planned to stay for at least one hundred more years. Okay,
8:29
Speaker 1: I don't see why I not. Have you seen eating
8:31
Speaker 1: Friday lobster? You're good all right? Right right? I can't
8:35
Speaker 1: wait to though, Oh the chicken and biscuits and then
8:39

8:57
Speaker 1: How about that? Say it again? You can get it
8:58
Speaker 1: at and they don't have it at your local, going like,
9:01
Speaker 1: you better better tell somebody, you better ask somebody to say,
9:04
Speaker 1: get it in your store, because we love Patty's food. Now.
9:08
Speaker 1: I always love you. Whitney Houston Saul I heard that
9:12
Speaker 1: telling her, yall, I was like, oh my goodness, oh
9:14
Speaker 1: you're saying you always love was coming from her. Supposed
9:19
Speaker 1: to be your soul. Dolly Parton a long time ago
9:21
Speaker 1: said Patty, I want you to cover this song, and
9:24
Speaker 1: so I said, of course yes because I love the song.
9:26
Speaker 1: But then something happened. The movie came, Whitney killed it,
9:29
Speaker 1: and I'm still sitting. So it was supposed to be
9:31
Speaker 1: your soul. Yeah, wow about like Whitney that was supposed
9:35
Speaker 1: to be. No. I was happy she did it because
9:38
Speaker 1: she did a phenomenal job, but I still want to
9:41
Speaker 1: do it on a competitive level. You black, I could
9:43
Speaker 1: have killed that better than her. No way, I don't
9:47
Speaker 1: do like that. No, she killed it, Okay, she slayed it.
9:51
Speaker 1: I can do my job on it, but not like her. No,
9:54
Speaker 1: not like her. You don't know shore that way. When
9:56
Speaker 1: you get on the stage with some of them other women,

10:06
Speaker 1: don't like I love competition, but I don't like to

Speaker 1: show off. But it just comes out because I have
10:12
Speaker 1: this big old voice, and she comes out when she
10:15
Speaker 1: wants and there's room for everybody because I'm sure it
10:18
Speaker 1: means so much for younger artists. You know how many
10:22
Speaker 1: young artists are like my daughters and my sons, you know,
10:25
Speaker 1: like Fantasia and Jennifer Hudson. We're talking, Oh, Jennifer and
10:30
Speaker 1: I are talking about my life back in the day
10:32
Speaker 1: when Aretha Franklin was back in my day, because she's
10:35
Speaker 1: portraying Aretha in this new movie. So she called me
10:38
Speaker 1: and says she wants me to talk to her about
10:40
Speaker 1: back in the daytime, just to give her some kind
10:43
Speaker 1: of insight on how we lived and how we roll
10:46
Speaker 1: back in the day. Really not get along, No, lord, No,
10:49
Speaker 1: that's such a lie. No, No, we we got along,
10:56
Speaker 1: you know. And I think she was going through something
10:58
Speaker 1: when everybody saw that moment when the video was walking
11:01
Speaker 1: up at the White House. Yeah, but I think she
11:03
Speaker 1: was not well that that day, and I took the
11:06
Speaker 1: high road. And I love doing her even more after
11:09
Speaker 1: that because I didn't know. I know, you have some
11:12
Speaker 1: amazing stories, though, Oh I do. Yeah, I have a
11:15
Speaker 1: lot of stories, A lot I'll keep to myself. You
11:21
Speaker 1: don't feel like it's your duty kind of just to
11:23
Speaker 1: share tell you so many things that I wish I
11:28
Speaker 1: could tell. But God don't like ugly, I can't. It
11:32
Speaker 1: could be positive things too, A lot of yeah that
11:35
Speaker 1: we've never heard before, we would love to hear. Yeah,
11:37
Speaker 1: let me get my book ready. You got to write
11:40
Speaker 1: a book one day, I have, but I'll write another
11:42
Speaker 1: one in my life life. Yeah. You also did the
11:45
Speaker 1: Black Lady Sketch Show, which I love that you. I
11:47
Speaker 1: just saw it the other day with my background singing, yeah, Bud.
11:52
Speaker 1: How did they approach you for that? How did that happen?
11:54
Speaker 1: Because I was like, that's an amazing called my son
11:56
Speaker 1: and said we would love your mother to do this
11:58
Speaker 1: HBO special and I found that what it was, it
12:01
Speaker 1: was my singing on my own for the whole old time,
12:05
Speaker 1: destroying this little girl's mind. Hey yeah, but I was
12:09
Speaker 1: happy to be asked to do that. And I'm joining
12:11
Speaker 1: a Hallmark movie that comes out December twentieth with Holly
12:15
Speaker 1: Robinson Pete. I play her aunt Family Christmas, right, it's
12:19
Speaker 1: called Family Christmas. How you know that's what it's called.
12:23
Speaker 1: I'm only messing with you today. Yeah, that's what it's called.
12:27
Speaker 1: It's not like I'm my own still here today though,
12:29
Speaker 1: because like if you're going through something that is a
12:32
Speaker 1: painful song to listen to the listener. I mean, really sad,
12:38
Speaker 1: but true. You're on your own, bull, You're on your own.
12:41
Speaker 1: And those are things that are timeless, like when you
12:43
Speaker 1: can hear something and be like, I'm so hurt. There's
12:45
Speaker 1: certain songs you listen to when you're going through a breakup,
12:48
Speaker 1: like a breakup playlist. That's definitely on the breakup playlist.
12:51
Speaker 1: Oh of course, yes, it has to be. Oh and
12:54
Speaker 1: something else. Did you know I was supposed to do
12:56
Speaker 1: Nobody's supposed to Be Here by Deborah con Wow, that's
12:59
Speaker 1: another I know. Montell Jordan wrote it and called me
13:04
Speaker 1: and played it over the phone, and I said, oh,
13:06
Speaker 1: I don't like that song, Montell. He said what I said,
13:09
Speaker 1: I just don't feel it. Maybe it's not my time
13:11
Speaker 1: to listen to music. Sometimes you have that thing in
13:13
Speaker 1: your life where music just doesn't settle in your ear.
13:16
Speaker 1: Right And after I didn't do it and Debor did it,
13:18
Speaker 1: I slapped myself. But it was her beginning, So I
13:22
Speaker 1: was happy I let it go because Debora got a
13:25
Speaker 1: chance to show how beer she is. Absolutely you messed
13:29
Speaker 1: up on Yeah, wait, wait, there's two more. I can't
13:33
Speaker 1: think right now. I don't know. I can't remember, but yeah,
13:38
Speaker 1: I let a lot of stuff go. Yeah, what what
13:40
Speaker 1: is it about the record? Just the fact that you
13:42
Speaker 1: simply don't like it or did the content of it?
13:43
Speaker 1: I don't like sometimes the bridge of the melody, sometimes
13:48
Speaker 1: on certain things, some lyrics. So I just messed up,
13:52
Speaker 1: you know. And after I did, like, I said, thank god,
13:55
Speaker 1: she got it. Do you think the best vocalist of
13:58
Speaker 1: all time is Aretha Franklin? Oh? Yeah, what makes her
14:05
Speaker 1: the best? She just has something from God that nobody
14:08
Speaker 1: has over Whitney. Yeah, I mean Aretha Franklin. Let's look,
14:14
Speaker 1: she's the voice of life. Nobody can sing like Aretha Franklin.
14:19
Speaker 1: Nobody can sing like Whitney Houston, you know, So I'll
14:21
Speaker 1: put them on two different levels. And Aretha's my queen. Yeah.
14:27
Speaker 1: We were supposed to do a duet before she passed.
14:30
Speaker 1: Three months before she died, she called me and we talked,
14:34
Speaker 1: and we talked about back in the day. She used
14:37
Speaker 1: to remind me of times when we're in Detroit at
14:39
Speaker 1: the club. I said, girl, what club? So I don't
14:42
Speaker 1: remember the club, but I remember we did hang and
14:44
Speaker 1: then I mean, it was a good night. If you
14:45
Speaker 1: don't remember. It was a good night, and so I said,
14:48
Speaker 1: I want to record a song with you. She said,
14:50
Speaker 1: let's do it, Patty. She really wanted to sing a
14:52
Speaker 1: duet with me. Why did you never do that? When
14:54
Speaker 1: y'all I was like, younger, that's why I don't know.
14:59
Speaker 1: I don't know. I haven't wait until I've turned it
15:01
Speaker 1: eight ninety one hundred years old. Say let's do it.
15:06
Speaker 1: Did you know what the song is gonna be? Already? Like? No,
15:08
Speaker 1: I had, So I said, what song would you like
15:11
Speaker 1: to do? Said? Anything with you, Patty. I mean we
15:14
Speaker 1: had a good relationship that most people think we fought,
15:17
Speaker 1: and like Dina rolls, people that we fought. It's like
15:20
Speaker 1: so many ladies out there who m well, summer, summer, summer.
15:29
Speaker 1: Some I can't talk about it. You really didn't get
15:32
Speaker 1: along with of course, No, they didn't get along with me.
15:37
Speaker 1: I don't know why, but they didn't. And I said,
15:41
Speaker 1: I pray for you, yeah, because I'm loving on you
15:44
Speaker 1: every chance. Sometimes I love to have fault real hard.
