• 1:24
  Speaker 10: the whole movie was kind of over the top, you know,
• 1:27
  Speaker 10: all that all that colors. So yeah, I mean, I
• 1:32
  Speaker 10: hear more about that now than we did then. People
• 1:35

• 1:40
  Speaker 11: As you guys are celebrating this anniversary, what are some
• 1:42
  Speaker 11: of the things that you instantly think back to, because
• 1:44
  Speaker 11: I being on set probably was just like an experience.
• 1:47
  Speaker 4: But before you're into that house play doings player.
• 1:49
  Speaker 10: Uh, they had some how would we classify? Yeah, yeah,
• 1:56
  Speaker 10: he had some accommodation difficulties this morning, so shout out
• 2:00
  Speaker 10: to play hotel.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: He's here in Spirit. Yeah, his hotel was okay.
• 2:05
  Speaker 8: Well, don't give the name in a hotel, but I
• 2:07
  Speaker 8: think you told me that there was some here.
• 2:17
  Speaker 5: I just saw the tell.
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: The airport.
• 2:22
  Speaker 11: Then you really have hotel accommodation issues or that was
• 2:24
  Speaker 11: a joke play, I.
• 2:27
  Speaker 5: Was joking with the mouse.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: I don't know that part is that part?
• 2:30
  Speaker 10: That part is real, you know, but you know, I know,
• 2:33
  Speaker 10: you know, we all go back a little wat here so,
• 2:35
  Speaker 10: but he's definitely.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: A hearing spirit.
• 2:37
  Speaker 10: But to your to your question, I guess with each anniversary,
• 2:44
  Speaker 10: each milestone, because you get to like it was ten
• 2:48
  Speaker 10: twenty twenty five, we're actually at thirty five. Is kind
• 2:52
  Speaker 10: of a kind of a bug out, and now you're
• 2:55
  Speaker 10: at the point where, okay, well.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: Who's still here? You know what I mean?
• 3:01
  Speaker 10: I lost, We didn't lost some of the soldiers and whatnot.
• 3:04
  Speaker 10: But I think, but to your point, a lot of
• 3:08
  Speaker 10: it and we were talking about this the other guy
• 3:10
  Speaker 10: or the other day. Is it's stuff like that happened
• 3:12
  Speaker 10: on set. I mean, for a lot of us, it
• 3:15
  Speaker 10: was our first film. We wasn't making a lot of money.
• 3:17
  Speaker 10: We didn't have a lot of money then or whatever.
• 3:19
  Speaker 10: But it was kind of the joy and the camaraderie
• 3:22
  Speaker 10: of of doing it and it stood to this day,
• 3:25
  Speaker 10: which is.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: A how did that for?
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: How did it come together? How did the whole house
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: party didn't come together? Y'all were young, y'all were fresh
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: that were just kicking off.
• 3:33
  Speaker 4: How did they decide we're going.
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: To do a movie based on y'all? And how much
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: did y'all get paid back then? I'm just kidding well, well,
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: DJ and V. You you know how hot kidd and
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: play was in the city at that time. Okay, we were,
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: but no, we were. We were playing out were hot,
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: and not.
• 3:48
  Speaker 10: Just just the music, but the videos were really starting
• 3:51
  Speaker 10: the bus and our look and sound and vibe. So
• 3:55
  Speaker 10: Rezzie had Linda director, one of the producers, used to uh,
• 3:59
  Speaker 10: it was his idea. It was his Harvard thesis that
• 4:02
  Speaker 10: he turned into a full length feature script, and he
• 4:06
  Speaker 10: would occasionally step to us in the clubs because he
• 4:08
  Speaker 10: wanted us to do our music. He wanted to do
• 4:11
  Speaker 10: our music videos. But we were cool on that. We
• 4:14
  Speaker 10: had somebody for that at the time. Then he started
• 4:17
  Speaker 10: pushing the script. I read the script. We read the script,
• 4:21
  Speaker 10: and it was the first thing that we had gotten
• 4:23
  Speaker 10: that had been submitted to us that was really it
• 4:26
  Speaker 10: was close. You know, it wasn't one hundred percent, but
• 4:29
  Speaker 10: I felt like it was like seventy seventy five, and
• 4:32
  Speaker 10: I was like, I thought we could get at the
• 4:33
  Speaker 10: rest of the way. And you know, that's the cliff
• 4:36
  Speaker 10: notes version. And I think there's a famous story going
• 4:40
  Speaker 10: on at that time where it could have been us,
• 4:42
  Speaker 10: or it could have been fresh Prince and jazzy Jeff Right.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, this is something. There's something to that.
• 4:49
  Speaker 5: I feel like y'all predated him just a little bit though, right.
• 4:52
  Speaker 10: Not about the same time, though, Charlottage. If you think
• 4:54
  Speaker 10: about it, you're talking about eighty seven, eighty eight. Matter
• 4:56
  Speaker 10: of fact, Willing then blew up nationally, I think a
• 5:00
  Speaker 10: little bit ahead of us.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: Remember they had the party lines and all that kind
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: of stuff.
• 5:04
  Speaker 10: So yeah, but yeah, definitely, and so we're definitely that
• 5:08
  Speaker 10: same era. And guess what, to this day, I'm sure
• 5:11
  Speaker 10: they would have did a great job, you know what
• 5:13
  Speaker 10: I mean.
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: I can't see nah, I mean, I mean, that's kind
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: of crazy to say that. In hindsight, I.
• 5:19
  Speaker 5: Guess, but I just can't see it.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: The chemistry was crazy. We talked about that.
• 5:23
  Speaker 6: We did an online tribute to see a j from
• 5:26
  Speaker 6: Africa and t Sha and everybody, and what we talked
• 5:29
  Speaker 6: about was the seasoning of the little things that that
• 5:33
  Speaker 6: makes it really whole and the chemistry that we all had,
• 5:35
  Speaker 6: and everybody spoke of, you know, their parts, like and
• 5:40
  Speaker 6: all of us didn't know everybody's journey. Like we started
• 5:44
  Speaker 6: asking t Sha, so, teacher, how did you hook up?
• 5:47
  Speaker 6: And they was like school days and Jackson, well, what
• 5:49
  Speaker 6: made y'all do that dancing? And she said, I didn't
• 5:53
  Speaker 6: do that. Be Agent choreographed the whole thing. And then
• 5:56
  Speaker 6: it was just so much thing that we were just
• 5:58
  Speaker 6: finding out, you know. So to your point, that's in chemistry.
• 6:02
  Speaker 10: Yeah, and also to Reggie Huddling, Uh, he had the
• 6:06
  Speaker 10: benefit of leaning on all our individual talents.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean. You know that that T
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: and AJ could just come up.
• 6:15
  Speaker 10: With a you know, with a dance battle routine like
• 6:18
  Speaker 10: that to go up against you know, the dances that
• 6:20
  Speaker 10: Play and.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: I were doing.
• 6:21
  Speaker 10: You know that doesn't that doesn't necessarily come in the package.
• 6:24
  Speaker 10: You know, you need you need you need a battle rap. Well,
• 6:28
  Speaker 10: you know, Kid and Play can provide that. You need
• 6:31
  Speaker 10: a big song like ain't my type of hype for
• 6:33
  Speaker 10: the dance battle, Well for us can provide that.
• 6:36
  Speaker 6: Uh.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: So you know, I think you know, he definitely benefited.
• 6:40
  Speaker 10: From our some of our superpowers that we kind of
• 6:44
  Speaker 10: brought to the table. But like I said, being so young,
• 6:47
  Speaker 10: we were just like you know, we weren't like you know, uh,
• 6:51
  Speaker 10: being asked to do something extra. Wasn't like yo, yo,
• 6:54
  Speaker 10: I need to get let's just do it. Let's do it,
• 6:57
  Speaker 10: and you know, we'll see at the top.
• 6:59
  Speaker 8: You know, the original script with me and my brother's
• 7:03
  Speaker 8: the original script when Reggie wrote it. It had full
• 7:06
  Speaker 8: Force described in the script as descriptions.
• 7:10
  Speaker 5: We weren't even cast.
• 7:11
  Speaker 8: Then it said something that kidn't play or accosted by
• 7:16
  Speaker 8: droopy Jerry Curroll.
• 7:17
  Speaker 9: Guys were great physiqus somebody like full force.
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: That was literally in the scriptscription.
• 7:22
  Speaker 8: So Robert Ford, who used to co produce our music
• 7:25
  Speaker 8: with us, it was a good firm of Reggie, said, Reggie,
• 7:28
  Speaker 8: why didn't you just get full force? And then that's
• 7:31
  Speaker 8: when he made a phone call to my brother Paul.
• 7:33
  Speaker 8: The three of us got together. Now in the script,
• 7:35
  Speaker 8: I think we were the first ones to start bum
• 7:37
  Speaker 8: rushing the script, the original script. After we did the tablew'd,
• 7:40
  Speaker 8: I told my brothers and said, man, we're just like
• 7:42
  Speaker 8: bullies with no personalities in this. Listen, my brothers was
• 7:46
  Speaker 8: supposed to be pee Wee. I said, Pubby pee Wee,
• 7:49
  Speaker 8: you're the your stab.
• 7:50
  Speaker 12: Now talk like this throughout the whole movie, you know,
• 7:53
  Speaker 12: kicking some fucking ass. And then we just create our
• 7:57
  Speaker 12: own roles and we created our own scenes, and then
• 8:00
  Speaker 12: we showed Reggie and Warrington huddling.
• 8:02
  Speaker 9: They came to.
• 8:03
  Speaker 8: See the three of us do our things with blood
• 8:05
  Speaker 8: brothers anyway, so our chemistry is great. And Warrington as
• 8:08
  Speaker 8: soon as he saw did Warrington Hudland say keep it?
• 8:10
  Speaker 8: And Reggie Hudland said, you heard my brother keep it?
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: And so it wasn't it wasn't no kick your hand,
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: there wasn't.
• 8:17
  Speaker 13: No, it's not like you should have got.
• 8:26
  Speaker 5: You noticed. Man said that randomly for no reason.
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: I heard, no reason.
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: That happens in the street. That happens everywhere. People that
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: all the time.
• 8:37
  Speaker 9: Sometimes I say it before they say it.
• 8:38
  Speaker 6: Just and on the set, Martin was like a little
• 8:41
  Speaker 6: brother everybody. And the best word that describes that whole
• 8:45
  Speaker 6: experience was unity. Your smooth segue into while we're here.
• 8:51
  Speaker 7: Yeah, So wait a minute, who wrote the jail house rap?
• 8:53
  Speaker 7: Because you Reggie? Okay, all right, I'm like, ain't no
• 8:57
  Speaker 7: way Reggie wrote that.
• 8:58
  Speaker 10: No, no, but this typically, like I said, Reggie would
• 9:01
  Speaker 10: come to you, uh, the night before or two nights
• 9:05
  Speaker 10: before and say.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: Hey man, we need a rap in the in the jail.
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: M You know what I'm saying. You gotta write a
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: rap in the jail.
• 9:13
  Speaker 10: Herbie did a little beat you know when he said, Yo,
• 9:16
  Speaker 10: we need a we need a rap battle.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: Trust me, all that stuff wasn't in the original. But
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: it wasn't.
• 9:22
  Speaker 10: But but at his credit though no, he recognized it.
• 9:25
  Speaker 10: So by the time we into the movie. Now we
• 9:27
  Speaker 10: a few weeks into the movie and he's seeing really
• 9:30
  Speaker 10: who he's working with. He's like, man, I ain't nothing.
• 9:32
  Speaker 10: I can't throw these dudes. These young as is down
• 9:34
  Speaker 10: for whatever. Yo, we need a battle rap Okay. So
• 9:37
  Speaker 10: that means I have to write it and play gotta
• 9:40
  Speaker 10: do excuse me, I have to write it. Play has
• 9:43
  Speaker 10: to perform it. Herbie got to do do the beat
• 9:46
  Speaker 10: within a within a couple of days.
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: So you know, I mean when you look at it now,
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: I mean.
• 9:51
  Speaker 10: To your to your point, just a lot of times
• 9:54
  Speaker 10: people would have been like, all right, well you know
• 9:56
  Speaker 10: that's that's that that didn't come with the original, right,
• 10:00
  Speaker 10: you know what I mean. But that's just not what
• 10:01
  Speaker 10: the mentality was back then. The mentality was like, let's go,
• 10:04
  Speaker 10: let's let's just do it.
• 10:06
  Speaker 7: I was in here with murderer, murderers and stranglers, you
• 10:09
  Speaker 7: got it, just a bunch of romp Wranglers.
• 10:14
  Speaker 5: That's wophobia was hilarious.
• 10:16
  Speaker 10: Yeah, I will say this that I will say this.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: He got.
• 10:25
  Speaker 5: Hilarious when you're.
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: I'll say this. The jail rap has not aged.
• 10:29
  Speaker 10: Well, wait till the point where one time I was watching,
• 10:34
  Speaker 10: I was flipping and I see House Party on v
• 10:37
  Speaker 10: H one, and he got to the point where the
• 10:39
  Speaker 10: jail rap is supposed.
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: To come out. Cut that bitch out.
• 10:45
  Speaker 10: It's just like, you know, you know what the executives
• 10:48
  Speaker 10: a v H one, Oh no.
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: What's funny. When you were young?
• 10:52
  Speaker 7: I was twelve, House Party came out. When you were young,
• 10:54
  Speaker 7: you're thinking to yourself, and that's what jail is. So
• 10:57
  Speaker 7: I just looked at from the perspective of you were
• 10:59
  Speaker 7: just trying to take your butt right, that's.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: Number one priority.
• 11:10
  Speaker 10: If you remember, there was I think I said one
• 11:13
  Speaker 10: line was coming from the heart, from the center, the
• 11:17
  Speaker 10: sign on my ass.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: And guess what we did this.
• 11:25
  Speaker 10: We shot it at eighty nine. It came out of ninety.
• 11:27
  Speaker 10: Nobody better than I. They were like, yeah, man.
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: Freaking broke Wranglers.
• 11:34
  Speaker 6: You know the only thing we fought for in that
• 11:36
  Speaker 6: movie is that new line cinema out of nowhere.
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: They wanted to make it PG. Thirteen.
• 11:43
  Speaker 4: We went, I couldn't been.
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: They would have warded it down.
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: Oh my god, you know what you know that didn't happen.
• 11:58
  Speaker 10: Yeah, you know what I'm saying because to B. B
• 12:00
  Speaker 10: always makes his point and rightly. So you know the vernacular,
• 12:05
  Speaker 10: you know, even in the jail rap or I smell pussy,
• 12:08
  Speaker 10: the cuss words.
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's how that's how we all spoke at that.
• 12:12
  Speaker 10: Time in our lives as teenagers, you know what I mean?
• 12:16
  Speaker 10: And and that's why that's why it holds up, it
• 12:19
  Speaker 10: holds up to this day because it wasn't just about
• 12:22
  Speaker 10: kidd and Play. Kid and Play was top line, but
• 12:24
  Speaker 10: this became an ensemble movie. So you went from kidd
• 12:27
  Speaker 10: and Play, You went to Full Force, You went to
• 12:30
  Speaker 10: Robin Harris, you went to John Witherspoon, next Door talking Ship,
• 12:34
  Speaker 10: George Clinton, you went to T and AJ showing that
• 12:38
  Speaker 10: bond between homegirls and this is that little little rivalry.
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: Darald Chill Mill peace right.
• 12:46
  Speaker 10: So uh you know, And that's how that's how it evolved,
• 12:49
  Speaker 10: and that's how why it's stood so strong to this day.
• 12:53
  Speaker 11: And all the writing that you did, did you write
• 12:55
  Speaker 11: for play as well, or did he write things that
• 12:57
  Speaker 11: he did and himself well?
• 12:59
  Speaker 10: And that the movie In terms of the battle, I
• 13:03
  Speaker 10: wrote both parts because and early on that that would
• 13:07
  Speaker 10: happen from time to time.
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: He and I were so.
• 13:10
  Speaker 10: Tight that I knew I knew how to write for him,
• 13:14
  Speaker 10: to put him in the best position possible, you know
• 13:16
  Speaker 10: what I mean. And obviously we're together all the time.
• 13:19
  Speaker 10: I know how he thinks and stuff like that. And
• 13:21
  Speaker 10: also too, you can't just think of the rap battle
• 13:24
  Speaker 10: as a battle per se. You have to think of
• 13:26
  Speaker 10: it in terms of it, you know, theatrically and and
• 13:30
  Speaker 10: how you're writing it. You know, Play has to he
• 13:33
  Speaker 10: has to take.
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: The early lead.
• 13:35
  Speaker 10: He has to be you know, he has to be
• 13:36
  Speaker 10: whipping my ass basically the first part of the of
• 13:40
  Speaker 10: the battle.
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: And then in the end, you know what I mean,
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: I come.
• 13:43
  Speaker 10: When I come riding in on the horse to kind
• 13:45
  Speaker 10: of take it in the end, you know what I'm saying.
• 13:46
  Speaker 9: Yeah, But she didn't ask about the chemistry.
• 13:48
  Speaker 8: She just basically said, so all this time in your career,
• 13:51
  Speaker 8: you've been the ghost writer for Play.
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: No, no, no, that's that that would be, that would
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: be That is not.
• 13:57
  Speaker 11: What I specifically what I was going to go back.
• 14:00
  Speaker 11: I can ask a second question because I didn't. I
• 14:01
  Speaker 11: want to know that was down.
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: That would be inaccurate. I mean, somebody did a lot,
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: a lot. I didn't.
• 14:06
  Speaker 10: But if you're talking about that particular thing, yeah, I mean, look,
• 14:10
  Speaker 10: we all between myself, Play and Herbie Lovebug, we were
• 14:15
  Speaker 10: all together. We were a team, but everybody had their
• 14:18
  Speaker 10: own kind of superpowers. My thing was the lyrics, you
• 14:22
  Speaker 10: know on the music. Tip plays genius was. You know,
• 14:25
  Speaker 10: He's the reason we looked the way we looked. He's
• 14:28
  Speaker 10: the reason why we look cool. He's the reason why
• 14:31
  Speaker 10: we dressed the way we dressed. He's the reason why
• 14:33
  Speaker 10: the album covers, which were very important at that time,
• 14:36
  Speaker 10: were styled the way they were. He's the one with
• 14:39
  Speaker 10: the concepts of the music videos. Herbie oversaw everything. Herbie
• 14:43
  Speaker 10: made the beats. Herbie was the one that you brought.
• 14:46
  Speaker 10: You brought the record to him when you thought it
• 14:48
  Speaker 10: was done, and he's like, no, it's not done. I mean,
• 14:50
  Speaker 10: Herbie was Diddy before Diddy, you know, musically and creatively.
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: So that's the thing.
• 14:57
  Speaker 10: So when so when it was time for each one
• 15:00
  Speaker 10: of us to kind of lean into those our little
• 15:02
  Speaker 10: special power. You know, we did that as long as
• 15:06
  Speaker 10: we win in the end.
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: What you asked, what your flat top? Right, you didn't
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: have a typical flat tip. That he was like foot
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: long pause. Right when you got that flat tip and
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: you came home with that, what did your mother say
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: at that time?
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: Like?
• 15:18
  Speaker 4: Right, what did your family say?
• 15:20
  Speaker 10: Well, well, my mother had passed by then, God rest
• 15:22
  Speaker 10: his sword, so I would have gave that white woman
• 15:26
  Speaker 10: a heart attack. Okay, but no, my my I was
• 15:30
  Speaker 10: raised by my Jamaican father, so he was none too pleased.
• 15:33
  Speaker 10: He's like, your air looked like ebra. I'm Lincoln's hot,
• 15:40
  Speaker 10: and my father was He was not. He was Jamaican
• 15:42
  Speaker 10: and he was not a proponent of the hip hop life.
• 15:45
  Speaker 10: You just love this black life, don't you.
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: You're He never called it hip hop music. He said,
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: y'all just love this, y'all got y'all got mulesic. And
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: then after everything blows up, you know, he retired.
• 16:03
  Speaker 10: I took him to the dealership to buy him a car.
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: He was like, I always believed in.
• 16:08
  Speaker 10: You give me that black legs us.
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: Throw some DS on nothing.
• 16:25
  Speaker 10: No, I just you know what I had to I
• 16:27
  Speaker 10: wanted to use the same instinct that told me to
• 16:31
  Speaker 10: do the high top in the first place. I always
• 16:34
  Speaker 10: trusted that the same instinct would tell me when it
• 16:37
  Speaker 10: was time to move off. So we had an opportunity
• 16:41
  Speaker 10: when we started doing the movie Class Act, where I
• 16:44
  Speaker 10: knew there was gonna be an opportunity to move to
• 16:48
  Speaker 10: a different hairstyle, being the twist or dreads or what
• 16:51
  Speaker 10: it eventually became. And uh so that's when I made
• 16:54
  Speaker 10: the move, and I almost got in trouble for it.
• 16:57
  Speaker 10: We always got in trouble when Warner Brothers signed us
• 17:00
  Speaker 10: of that film and they heard I was thinking about
• 17:01
  Speaker 10: changing the hot top, they threatened to sue us because
• 17:06
  Speaker 10: they felt like, we're buying everything.
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: Nigga, we're getting all that, you know what I mean.
• 17:12
  Speaker 10: So we went back and forth when we compromised in
• 17:14
  Speaker 10: terms of I would start the movie with the high
• 17:18
  Speaker 10: top and then and then go to the twist, and
• 17:21
  Speaker 10: then I never went back. And so this is shooting
• 17:24
  Speaker 10: in like ninety one ninety two, so I haven't worn
• 17:27
  Speaker 10: it since then, but it's still ever present. I think
• 17:30
  Speaker 10: I think someone's working on a tombstone.
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: That looked like a hot time. I will eventually be buried,
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: but that's one.
• 17:38
  Speaker 10: Of those things you can't you can't anticipate that either,
• 17:42
  Speaker 10: that that's gonna resonate so many years.
• 17:45
  Speaker 7: Going after brothers the full force. You know, y'all always
• 17:47
  Speaker 7: noticed producers and musicians. Right when y'all started playing the
• 17:51
  Speaker 7: villains comedic Villains and House Party? When did you realize
• 17:54
  Speaker 7: that you had to have versatility in entertainment?
• 18:00
  Speaker 10: You up, but that's kind of think that's kind of
• 18:02
  Speaker 10: what you did in House Party because you kind of
• 18:04
  Speaker 10: you kind of played that role in Cross.
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: Groove right right.
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean groove.
• 18:09
  Speaker 6: A lot of people don't know is that from kids.
• 18:12
  Speaker 6: You know, we were always acting, always doing skits, making
• 18:16
  Speaker 6: our parents watch and lou like for five Christmases in
• 18:20
  Speaker 6: a row sometime he was twelve, he would get the
• 18:23
  Speaker 6: same thing for Christmas. Canna give a show projector so
• 18:27
  Speaker 6: he was always like filming and making us. I mean,
• 18:29
  Speaker 6: he was making us do these plays. So when we
• 18:33
  Speaker 6: when we started acting and doing it as we got older,
• 18:37
  Speaker 6: people didn't know. But for us it was like nothing
• 18:39
  Speaker 6: like if you remember the scene with us in the
• 18:42
  Speaker 6: lunch room and I'm punching kid and then Luis goes, wait, wait, wait, okay, no, no, no, no,
• 18:48
  Speaker 6: none of that's in the script. Matter of fact, a
• 18:50
  Speaker 6: lot of things we did happen right there on set
• 18:53
  Speaker 6: and we're just winging it the wrap all all of that.
• 18:56
  Speaker 6: But that's because us, as kids doing it, we kind
• 19:00
  Speaker 6: to know what you're gonna say, or if we don't,
• 19:02
  Speaker 6: we play off of it.
• 19:03
  Speaker 5: So y'all always understood the power of versatility.
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, and it was a natural progression for us.
• 19:09
  Speaker 6: That's why Hollywood looked for so many rappers because you
• 19:13
  Speaker 6: were so authentic.
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: My dad always tell us, don't you know, don't sing
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: the song become the song.
• 19:19
  Speaker 6: When I was producing, when I'm doing volks with Payla
• 19:22
  Speaker 6: Bell or LaToya Jackson Lisa, I always say, don't sing
• 19:25
  Speaker 6: the song become the song. So I think it was
• 19:28
  Speaker 6: the same thing. It was just a natural progression for us.
• 19:30
  Speaker 6: So we knew that you had to have versatile energy.
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: The other thing, music would get back to the time
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: where it was fun. Yes, like where y'all were dancing
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: like you look at now and you go to the
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: club now, you're not gonna see people dancing like the.
• 19:43
  Speaker 4: Way you guys did right or the way we dance.
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: Like you just don't see it anymore. Do you think
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: it could get back to that funness?
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: I think I do think so.
• 19:50
  Speaker 6: I think I think the first thing is well, I
• 19:52
  Speaker 6: think so because I think music is getting back to
• 19:55
  Speaker 6: real songs. That's why you hear rapper samples, I hear
• 19:58
  Speaker 6: real melodies. I think melo these are coming back, and
• 20:01
  Speaker 6: saying has come back. When I do HBCU as appearances,
• 20:04
  Speaker 6: I mean they're dressed like us, they're dancing like us,
• 20:07
  Speaker 6: and you look for that old flavor and they doing
• 20:09
  Speaker 6: some of the old dances and the old vibe and
• 20:11
  Speaker 6: old energy.
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: But I think it's coming back.
• 20:14
  Speaker 6: It's going to be too because technology is just different.
• 20:17
  Speaker 6: I mean when we all came up, even you know
• 20:20
  Speaker 6: that we are significantly older than some. If you hear
• 20:26
  Speaker 6: you might have caught that last wave of like those
• 20:28
  Speaker 6: house parties, those.
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: Basement jams, yo, those those were real. I mean those
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: Rob's Club. I don't think it's going to come back
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: in that way.
• 20:37
  Speaker 6: I mean, everybody's buried in their phone, even at the parties,
• 20:41
  Speaker 6: and you know, and dance was everything.
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: You know, even when you had those parties, you had
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: the hood rock dudes, you.
• 20:47
  Speaker 6: Had the people that you know could dance. You had
• 20:49
  Speaker 6: dance battles that I mean, this happened at every party.
• 20:52
  Speaker 6: That type of texture is not the same. I remember,
• 20:55
  Speaker 6: it's not and I think it's coming.
• 20:56
  Speaker 3: Remember the last ten minutes of a party being R
• 20:59
  Speaker 3: and B and you go have that girl for the
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: last for your.
• 21:04
  Speaker 6: When you were like just waiting for the slow jam
• 21:06
  Speaker 6: and you ain't not the one you're gonna go to
• 21:08
  Speaker 6: the come on yet that that Brothers joint or or
• 21:12
  Speaker 6: heat wave.
• 21:14
  Speaker 7: To get back to what year y'all talking because the
• 21:17
  Speaker 7: reality it could be the early two thousands.
• 21:20
  Speaker 5: We used to like dancing has never gone anywhere.
• 21:23
  Speaker 4: I think to you, it happn't we go to clubs.
• 21:26
  Speaker 7: Now they may not dance in the club, but they
• 21:29
  Speaker 7: just dance like TikTok, that's what they dance.
• 21:32
  Speaker 5: And then and then in the South, we never stopped dancing.
• 21:35
  Speaker 5: In the South, were creating the dances in your New
• 21:37
  Speaker 5: York Nigga.
• 21:37
  Speaker 13: Was hating on it, but that's where he's saying though,
• 21:40
  Speaker 13: Like like the part dancing at a party, people dancing
• 21:43
  Speaker 13: front and all that, but actual like the actual feel
• 21:49
  Speaker 13: of a house party with nobody in their phone.
• 21:52
  Speaker 9: They just all having fun.
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean, that's what.
• 21:56
  Speaker 5: We need affordable housing.
• 21:57
  Speaker 10: Then because people, you know, and then it's and then
• 22:01
  Speaker 10: it's about the interaction between people. You know, it's why,
• 22:05
  Speaker 10: it's why the kid in Play dance it is still
• 22:09
  Speaker 10: people still enjoying that because you got to do it
• 22:11
  Speaker 10: with somebody.
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: You know what.
• 22:13
  Speaker 10: It's a celebratory dance, you know what I mean. You
• 22:17
  Speaker 10: you got a new job, do the kid and play?
• 22:20
  Speaker 10: You just buzz or ut.
• 22:28
  Speaker 6: But to Charlemagne's point, if you go down south, go
• 22:31
  Speaker 6: to Virginia, oh yeah, they still rocking, They still dancing,
• 22:34
  Speaker 6: They still doing it in the clubs and the schools.
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: Everything.
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: It all depends on the ground.
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: I don't know, I mean.
• 22:44
  Speaker 3: And then y'all changed it with the Switch was even
• 22:45
  Speaker 3: crazy because now if you get a girl that you
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: are like Switch, you're gonna write.
• 22:48
  Speaker 4: To that one and you want But I don't.
• 22:50
  Speaker 10: Know what happens now because the the the bottle service
• 22:55
  Speaker 10: generation kind of moved out the dance generation.
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: But all the inf that I'm getting online.
• 23:01
  Speaker 10: In social media these days is that that bottle stuff
• 23:04
  Speaker 10: is kind So what are people supposed to do now?
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: You know, I still.
• 23:10
  Speaker 10: Travel around the country either doing kidding play stuff or
• 23:13
  Speaker 10: doing stand up so you know, they'll take you around
• 23:15
  Speaker 10: to the clubs and whatnot.
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: And I don't know, I don't you know, they'll they'll
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: put me somewhere.
• 23:21
  Speaker 10: I'm just I'm just looking. I feel like I'm a
• 23:24
  Speaker 10: head of state.
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: You know, you better not.
• 23:34
  Speaker 11: You guys know, I don't know what are you talking about?
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: You guys?
• 23:38
  Speaker 11: I saw uh it was it was some time ago,
• 23:40
  Speaker 11: but the least at lisa documentary or biopic, you guys
• 23:43
  Speaker 11: not being included, and people were really upset about that.
• 23:45
  Speaker 11: How did you guys feel personally though, because you guys
• 23:47
  Speaker 11: have been in all the videos and.
• 23:50
  Speaker 9: I'll speak on this trying to make it nicely.
• 23:53
  Speaker 8: What happened is that at the time, I didn't know
• 23:58
  Speaker 8: if there was any type of uh A negativity or
• 24:02
  Speaker 8: anything like that until I saw Lisa and Tony Minaj
• 24:05
  Speaker 8: who's her manager, do interviews together. I was kind of
• 24:09
  Speaker 8: surprised at that. But as far as the movie, we
• 24:12
  Speaker 8: weren't in it. You know, it's their movie, Tony and Lisa,
• 24:16
  Speaker 8: they executive produced it. Coach Jam now was in it,
• 24:19
  Speaker 8: and the coach Jam was mentioned. Col Jam wasn't down
• 24:22
  Speaker 8: with all of that. Because nobody came to cult Jam,
• 24:24
  Speaker 8: even though in interviews they said, well, you know, Coke
• 24:27
  Speaker 8: Jam in full Force.
• 24:28
  Speaker 9: It's everybody's confused.
• 24:30
  Speaker 8: That was the reasoning they said that they didn't mention
• 24:33
  Speaker 8: full Force because people would get confused with Cold Jam
• 24:35
  Speaker 8: and full Force, and that's why they kind.
• 24:39
  Speaker 6: Of you know, as a collective, we all have different
• 24:42
  Speaker 6: personality theorists, but we come together. I'm a little boy,
• 24:45
  Speaker 6: more direct in your face, so we want to wed.
• 24:49
  Speaker 6: We did a show. We did a show and when
• 24:54
  Speaker 6: I when they asked us a question, I said, to.
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: Quote my dear brother burning in heaven something. She just
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: don't make no sense.
• 25:01
  Speaker 6: I said it on stage because it was bullshit. Okay,
• 25:04
  Speaker 6: that's what it was. How can you do something like
• 25:05
  Speaker 6: that without us? Yeah, okay, but I understand what they did,
• 25:09
  Speaker 6: but it was just bullshit.
• 25:11
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 25:11
  Speaker 8: What it was to was that they wanted to interject
• 25:14
  Speaker 8: Tony the manager into the Lisa Lisa and co Jam career,
• 25:18
  Speaker 8: to tell her story too. And she's you know, she's
• 25:21
  Speaker 8: a nice person, talented also, but at the time in
• 25:24
  Speaker 8: the movie that timeline, Tony wasn't there in that timeline.
• 25:28
  Speaker 9: It's Cold Jam.
• 25:29
  Speaker 8: They you can go on YouTube, and you'll see a
• 25:31
  Speaker 8: YouTube to that says Cold Jam sets the record straight
• 25:34
  Speaker 8: because they wanted people to know the scenario.
• 25:37
  Speaker 9: At that timeline, it.
• 25:38
  Speaker 8: Was just salsa, Lisa in Full Force and Cold Jam
• 25:41
  Speaker 8: at the time, like Tony didn't come as far as
• 25:43
  Speaker 8: managing Lisa by herself until down the line, maybe five
• 25:47
  Speaker 8: six years before that, you know. But but after all
• 25:50
  Speaker 8: of that, we weren't mad. You know, there was a
• 25:52
  Speaker 8: backlash by a lot of fans and stuff like that,
• 25:55
  Speaker 8: like how could you do that? My thing is that
• 25:57
  Speaker 8: life is too short. Let's have a nice used to Lisa,
• 26:00
  Speaker 8: col Jam and Full Force reunion together on the stage, because.
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: I know we tried to do it before. It's okay.
• 26:15
  Speaker 11: I think to sentiment, it's like when people tell the
• 26:19
  Speaker 11: certain stories, there are certain things that you have to mention.
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: The oversight was like intention.
• 26:25
  Speaker 6: That was blade and I know I know Lisa wasn't
• 26:28
  Speaker 6: gonna go to to over the top. Her and I
• 26:30
  Speaker 6: always had a special bond. That's why she would have
• 26:32
  Speaker 6: headband like me all the time. But I mean, some
• 26:35
  Speaker 6: stuff that doesn't make sense. You can still get a point,
• 26:38
  Speaker 6: of course, without shoveling the bullshit.
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean, so be that as it may.
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: Moving on.
• 26:43
  Speaker 5: So did they say anything, how did they explain that?
• 26:47
  Speaker 6: They apologize nicely after after I know, not to us,
• 26:52
  Speaker 6: but we got worried that after the back like they
• 26:54
  Speaker 6: were getting they will say yo, they put we love
• 26:57
  Speaker 6: them and all that, you know.
• 26:59
  Speaker 4: So you know, we talked about it earlier, and I
• 27:01
  Speaker 4: was just curious.
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: Y'all get tired of the things that people know about
• 27:05
  Speaker 3: you the most, right, Like do people come to the
• 27:07
  Speaker 3: airport but like, let's do a kid and play kickstap,
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: Like do people.
• 27:09
  Speaker 4: Come to me I smell? Like do y'all hate that?
• 27:12
  Speaker 4: Or is it one of those things that just shows love?
• 27:14
  Speaker 6: Yeah, shows love and it never gets I appreciate that
• 27:17
  Speaker 6: every time. You know, that's how we're going to extend
• 27:19
  Speaker 6: live forever stuff.
• 27:20
  Speaker 10: Like yeah, yeah, I mean, if you really think about it,
• 27:24
  Speaker 10: you know what I mean, sometimes I'll bug out, you
• 27:26
  Speaker 10: know what I mean.
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: I remember, I remember.
• 27:29
  Speaker 10: I was I was I think I was still in
• 27:31
  Speaker 10: college and I was working at this fucked up bank,
• 27:35
  Speaker 10: green Point Savings.
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: Bank, you know what I mean.
• 27:39
  Speaker 10: Business Still, I was just I was just miserable. I
• 27:44
  Speaker 10: had a supervisor that was really hawking me. Man she
• 27:47
  Speaker 10: was really jocking it. So every time she went to
• 27:50
  Speaker 10: the other side of the floor, I'd whip out this
• 27:53
  Speaker 10: notebook and that I had all my rhymes in it
• 27:56
  Speaker 10: and all a lot of the stuff that became the
• 27:58
  Speaker 10: songs on our first album. And I just remember saying
• 28:01
  Speaker 10: to myself, I gotta give the fuck.
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: Out of here, man, you know what I mean.
• 28:05
  Speaker 10: And now to see where stuff like that is gone,
• 28:09
  Speaker 10: just words on a page to to you know, to
• 28:12
  Speaker 10: conquering the toughest rap environment and most crucial rap environment
• 28:18

  Speaker 1: It was a test of your manhood. It was a

  Speaker 1: test of where.
• 28:43
  Speaker 10: You know, going to Union Square you can get stabbed up,
• 28:47
  Speaker 10: shot up. But we came back every single weekend and

• 29:05
  Speaker 10: when it gets when those references are made to all

  Speaker 1: Not a fan music about.
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: Like you can sing.
• 32:14
  Speaker 6: It's no, honestly, it's a beautiful thing. It's a beautiful
• 32:17
  Speaker 6: thing that you know, Uh that it transcends everything.
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: You know. My brain is still caught up on the
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: whole thing with you guys.
• 32:27
  Speaker 6: You want being at Lisa, the whole thing that was
• 32:31
  Speaker 6: that was a concept of mine, the whole thing. To
• 32:33
  Speaker 6: bring that into prusition, oh yeahsa.
• 32:36
  Speaker 8: Period, yes, to bring a Spanish girl to be We
• 32:40
  Speaker 8: already had the song written already take you Home.
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: No, I had.
• 32:46
  Speaker 6: I wrote that song, and then I knew that there
• 32:49
  Speaker 6: was no Hispanic type of hero nothing at that time.
• 32:52
  Speaker 6: It's just menudo and the Hispanic community for me was
• 32:57
  Speaker 6: just like I used to see Hispanish people. It's just
• 32:59
  Speaker 6: light skinned black people. They were so engulfed in our community,
• 33:03
  Speaker 6: you know.
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: So when I see.
• 33:08
  Speaker 6: That watch y'all lost thirty short though, it's just that
• 33:13
  Speaker 6: a shame that they did a story that didn't show
• 33:16
  Speaker 6: how Lisa came to be at all, you know, why
• 33:20
  Speaker 6: there was no Hispanic type of influence out there at all.
• 33:23
  Speaker 6: For me, I grew up with a lot of Hispanic
• 33:27
  Speaker 6: people that were you know, from playing on the handbog chords,
• 33:30
  Speaker 6: we played ball together. When there was always a dance crew,
• 33:33
  Speaker 6: there was always a Hispanic brother in there. When there
• 33:35
  Speaker 6: was a Hispanic crew, there's always black brother in there.
• 33:39
  Speaker 6: So my you know, being in New York, the Hispanic
• 33:41
  Speaker 6: population with us was like this melting pot, and I
• 33:44
  Speaker 6: don't feel like it really showed that. It didn't showed
• 33:48
  Speaker 6: that type of culmination on how Lisa was picked and
• 33:50
  Speaker 6: why she was picking and how important she is to
• 33:53
  Speaker 6: these young Hispanic girls. Before Jennifer Lopez, before expos, before
• 33:58
  Speaker 6: all this was Lisa. But that was intentional because there
• 34:02
  Speaker 6: was nothing out at that time. I would tease my
• 34:03
  Speaker 6: friends about Yo Manudo and they would get mad, that's.
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: My little sister. The Hispanic people that I've grown up.
• 34:10
  Speaker 6: With were just like us and style, flavor and everything.
• 34:15
  Speaker 7: So so it's even it's beyond safe to say there
• 34:19
  Speaker 7: would be no Lisa Lisa without not just you picking her.
• 34:23
  Speaker 5: The songs y'all wrote.
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: We already had.
• 34:29
  Speaker 6: We already had the sound. Now we're just looking for
• 34:32
  Speaker 6: the right artists to put in it. You know, Be
• 34:34
  Speaker 6: had that rating, we had all cried out bare Kenny,
• 34:37
  Speaker 6: So we already had the sound the right artist. But
• 34:39
  Speaker 6: once again, that lends to the question of why.
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: To leave us out of it. It doesn't make sense
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: of the move of the documentary.
• 34:46
  Speaker 6: At one point, it was a great It was a
• 34:48
  Speaker 6: great vehicle to be inspire other young girls on how
• 34:52
  Speaker 6: she came to be for real, you know.
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: And that's why, you know what.
• 34:56
  Speaker 10: I don't like And I know you guys have these
• 34:58
  Speaker 10: these arguments in these discs cushion sometimes. Uh and it
• 35:02
  Speaker 10: seems to be a hot topic these days, talking about
• 35:05
  Speaker 10: black and latinos and their particular contributions to hip hop
• 35:08
  Speaker 10: and stuff like that. Yeah, that and and I'm one
• 35:11
  Speaker 10: of those people like I agree with with B one
• 35:13
  Speaker 10: hundred percent like that.
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: And that's what I think.
• 35:16
  Speaker 10: That's what made the music resonate when it did, because
• 35:18
  Speaker 10: these are coming out of real relationships. I mean, you
• 35:21
  Speaker 10: know what I'm saying.
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: I grew up with it.
• 35:22
  Speaker 10: I grew up with a gang of Latinos just like
• 35:25
  Speaker 10: black people. I'm half white, nobody had to be one
• 35:28
  Speaker 10: particular thing. People were examining your psyche and your soul.
• 35:32
  Speaker 10: That's that's what it was about. Can you dance? Can
• 35:35
  Speaker 10: you rap? Can you sing? And and and and we
• 35:37
  Speaker 10: were living side by side with each other. So yeah,
• 35:41
  Speaker 10: that that had been a much more interesting story. And
• 35:44
  Speaker 10: I know that's what the real story is, you know,
• 35:46
  Speaker 10: I know, I know, I know black, black and brown
• 35:49
  Speaker 10: people build hip hop. I know it because I was there,
• 35:52
  Speaker 10: So I'm always I'm interested in that.
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: I'm just like, what are we doing? Who's who? Who's poisoning?
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: We've built all of this to this point.
• 36:02
  Speaker 10: And and and I don't know what I don't I
• 36:04
  Speaker 10: don't get that.
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: And yeah, and I would appreciate it.
• 36:08
  Speaker 5: Y'all had all of those records done already.
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, all of them had head came late. That
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: was on the second album. But we had Taken Home.
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: I had taken Home and can you feel to be okay?
• 36:23
  Speaker 6: We had that before we had the artists because in
• 36:28
  Speaker 6: the sound.
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: I knew what I but I wanted.
• 36:31
  Speaker 6: I knew that, you know, I wanted a Hispanic young
• 36:34
  Speaker 6: lady who echoed New York, you know, because addition to
• 36:38
  Speaker 6: quite a few people, and I.
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: Was like nah, nah no.
• 36:42
  Speaker 6: And then Mike from Culture you know, he rang my
• 36:45
  Speaker 6: bell one day and said, be man, I heard you're
• 36:46
  Speaker 6: looking for a Hispanic young lady that could sing. You know,
• 36:49
  Speaker 6: I think I got this girl. And he said, and
• 36:52
  Speaker 6: you know, I'm thinking, maybe, you know, if you like her,
• 36:55
  Speaker 6: maybe we could like be like a group.
• 36:58
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 36:58
  Speaker 6: I got out, you know, out Yeah, no, Al and
• 37:01
  Speaker 6: me and called Cult Jam. Now the deal is, I
• 37:04
  Speaker 6: never was going to use the group called Cult Jam,
• 37:07
  Speaker 6: but our call manager said, well, how about if it works,
• 37:11
  Speaker 6: we use you know, Lisa and Cult Jam. And he
• 37:14
  Speaker 6: came up with the name, how about we call Lisa Lisa?
• 37:17
  Speaker 6: And I went nuts.
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: Who he came up with that name? We got out
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: the call we started south Side and said it sounds
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: so Spanish like Lisa, Lisa Lisa.
• 37:29
  Speaker 4: And it was right.
• 37:30
  Speaker 6: It was perfect, And that's what you want a lot
• 37:33
  Speaker 6: of people lost track of what artist development is because
• 37:36
  Speaker 6: what would happened. It was intentional that when people went
• 37:39
  Speaker 6: to the clubs. Because I remember that the record came on
• 37:41
  Speaker 6: the Bentley's, I couldn't believe it. I mean, you know,
• 37:44
  Speaker 6: people would say, yo play that Lisa Lisa record and
• 37:48
  Speaker 6: that's what you want. They wouldn't even say, yo play
• 37:50
  Speaker 6: take you Home records and then identify the brand and
• 37:54
  Speaker 6: you know, be fine as legit.
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: You know he really does.
• 37:58
  Speaker 10: There's there's history because he's still they're using the word Hispanic.
• 38:09
  Speaker 9: They came up with I wonder if I take You Home?
• 38:11
  Speaker 4: Right, and the song was already done.
• 38:14
  Speaker 8: He was so adamant that it must be a Latino
• 38:18
  Speaker 8: girl to do it. So yeah, full Force. It wasn't
• 38:22
  Speaker 8: for full Force. There wouldn't be no least Lisa, but
• 38:24
  Speaker 8: be right from the jump. Knew that he wanted girl.
• 38:28
  Speaker 10: And look, I think I don't think Full Force gets
• 38:31
  Speaker 10: enough credit. And this look, like I said, this stuff
• 38:34
  Speaker 10: comes organically, the list of Lisa vibe. It's organic. Look
• 38:38
  Speaker 10: at another big hit they had, Thanks for My Child
• 38:41
  Speaker 10: ryl Pepsi Riley. You remember how big that record was.
• 38:44
  Speaker 10: Who makes no record with with a girl they're about
• 38:46
  Speaker 10: to have a baby. This is before Brenda got a baby.
• 38:49
  Speaker 10: All this and that they they they're writing records, even
• 38:52
  Speaker 10: slow jams that were speaking to to the streets. They
• 38:57
  Speaker 10: ran slow jams. So I'm always I'm always the biggest
• 39:01
  Speaker 10: Full Force fan.
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: Their versatility was was incredible.
• 39:05
  Speaker 10: They're working with Backstreet, They're working with a man the Fox.
• 39:10
  Speaker 4: White people liked.
• 39:15
  Speaker 3: Or did somebody ever get y'all? Did y'all get everything?
• 39:17
  Speaker 3: With all the songs that they written? He just named
• 39:19
  Speaker 3: a couple of them. Did y'all get what you're supposed
• 39:20
  Speaker 3: to get?
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: Pretty much? It's still coming yad.
• 39:25
  Speaker 9: Members and I think we got every.
• 39:27
  Speaker 6: No, he said, yeah, no, no, no. When when doing
• 39:33
  Speaker 6: rock sand Roxanne doing that? You know when you deal
• 39:37
  Speaker 6: with independent labels, you know how that.
• 39:39
  Speaker 5: Damn you tfo RO.
• 39:41
  Speaker 9: That was our first production for RO.
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: And we was on that same label. To select that
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: means sometimes they select when they paid you the record,
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: select you not to.
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: That's what That's my favorite.
• 40:08
  Speaker 6: But there's always more to that, you know, like basketball,
• 40:11
  Speaker 6: we cover a basketball. I'm sure they're still so critician.
• 40:14
  Speaker 6: We should get from that too. That was like the
• 40:15
  Speaker 6: first first.
• 40:16
  Speaker 9: Time, like you know, you talked about the movie.
• 40:17
  Speaker 8: The movie left out a song the Lisa Lisa movie,
• 40:20
  Speaker 8: which we had nothing to do with, but they left
• 40:22
  Speaker 8: out the song. They didn't represent all cried out in there.
• 40:25
  Speaker 8: Now we did a duet with Lisa on that Full Force,
• 40:28
  Speaker 8: but they could have even did the first verse or
• 40:30
  Speaker 8: something cried out, but all cried Out.
• 40:33
  Speaker 9: Was mysterically, mysteriously not in the movie.
• 40:36
  Speaker 6: And hol was the one that, yeah, that's a true story,
• 40:39
  Speaker 6: that's a standard.
• 40:40
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 40:40
  Speaker 6: So once we had Lisa, it was like, okay, cool,
• 40:43
  Speaker 6: we started zeroing internet. So I even told I said,
• 40:46
  Speaker 6: some of these songs you're going to be doing thirty
• 40:48
  Speaker 6: forty years from now, all cry Out, you know when
• 40:50
  Speaker 6: our first time when even Alloyd did it over but
• 40:53
  Speaker 6: I heard mariahs saying it.
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: It was Mariah's favorite song, you know.
• 40:56
  Speaker 6: So you know, all the more reason why when we
• 40:58
  Speaker 6: do our documentary, we will braatically include Lisa, everybody who
• 41:02
  Speaker 6: impacted our lives, y'all. Everything, it's all connected.
• 41:05
  Speaker 3: Fight because y'all got so many different temperament personality, who wins.
• 41:11
  Speaker 6: Well, the deal is, it never got physical, you know,
• 41:14
  Speaker 6: as we became adults, you know. But yeah, usually it's
• 41:18
  Speaker 6: bump aheads with me.
• 41:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah and you know something. But here's the deal.
• 41:22
  Speaker 6: I'mber me and b last time we had a knockdown argument,
• 41:25
  Speaker 6: back and forth everything, and I said, okay, I'm like
• 41:28
  Speaker 6: this after that, Okay, cool. Yeah, I'm the type of okay, okay, y'all.
• 41:33
  Speaker 6: After that, I'm like, okay, I'm going to I hot be.
• 41:36
  Speaker 6: I got you who's buying? Because you know that's me.
• 41:39
  Speaker 6: I don't hang on nothing.
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 41:40
  Speaker 6: That's how it's supposed to be, you know, because at
• 41:42
  Speaker 6: the end of the day, we're on three mamas. We're
• 41:45
  Speaker 6: coming together for a mom and everything that accounts.
• 41:48
  Speaker 10: Let's go to the gym, guys, we're still one time.
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: This is back in the days.
• 41:55
  Speaker 10: So one time me and play almost had like a
• 41:59
  Speaker 10: like a like a fistfight, like.
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: Like in public, you know what I mean? Which which
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: which is what never happened. So we're flying in from somewhere.
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: I think we're flying in.
• 42:08
  Speaker 10: From the West coast, and we come in into you know,
• 42:11
  Speaker 10: Newark back in the days before they fixed it up.
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: It was mad junkie or whatever. I don't know. Yeah,
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, but I don't know it was.
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: It was something like really really stupid.
• 42:21
  Speaker 10: I think we had just gotten off a tour, so
• 42:23
  Speaker 10: we've been up on under each other for weeks on end.
• 42:27
  Speaker 10: And but the funny part was, you know, we actually
• 42:30
  Speaker 10: got up into each other's face and blah blahlah, the
• 42:33
  Speaker 10: road manager has to you know, kind of break us apart.
• 42:36
  Speaker 10: But the funny part was, you know where by the
• 42:38
  Speaker 10: baggage clean and then you.
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: Can see the fans.
• 42:40
  Speaker 2: Oh my god, didn't playing.
• 42:45
  Speaker 10: So yeah, yeah, those those times are rare because you know,
• 42:49
  Speaker 10: those those are these are the people that that you
• 42:51
  Speaker 10: go to war with, you know, once again, shout out
• 42:53
  Speaker 10: to play.
• 42:56
  Speaker 7: I wonder how the films impacted how people percee eved
• 43:01
  Speaker 7: y'all musical legacy, Like do they know y'all more from
• 43:04
  Speaker 7: the films and don't really know how.
• 43:07
  Speaker 6: As producers with with the younger jener younger j Yeah, yeah,
• 43:13
  Speaker 6: sometimes they're always surprised because when you start writing off
• 43:15

• 49:02
  Speaker 10: recover for recover from. Excuse me, but I don't know what.

  Speaker 10: you guys have to gather, the chemistry, the chemistry absolutely,
• 49:12
  Speaker 10: but but but you know what y'all, y'all never seem
• 49:15
  Speaker 10: to get get upset or perturbed by whatever that initial
• 49:19
  Speaker 10: wave is because everybody coming at you for whatever particular reason.
• 49:23

• 49:45
  Speaker 5: But a few golf bodies.
• 49:49
  Speaker 3: But you gotta realize what you're securing yourself, because I
• 49:52
  Speaker 3: remember the first one we started working with each other.
• 49:54
  Speaker 4: It wasn't funny. It wasn't funny at me. At first.
• 49:56
  Speaker 3: It was funny, but it was one of those things
• 49:58
  Speaker 3: like it's funny here, but I don't want to aybody
• 50:00
  Speaker 3: else to hear that for you, and you start feeling
• 50:02
