• 0:03
  Speaker 1: the rhythm of your day.
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: It's Shawna.
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: What's up. You're listening to Shauna and La La. Check

  Speaker 1: follow me on Instagram at the Real Shorna May.
• 0:28
  Speaker 3: And check me out at Bella Underscore Lalla one two five.
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: We are still recuperating from our trip to Nashville.
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: I feel like I'm not back to myself normal self.
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: I'm still it's been how long, like a week? Yeah,
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: and I'm not still catching up on my sleep. That's
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: how I feel.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: That's how I feel too. I just feel like I
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: can't sleep enough.
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I don't sleep well even if I try.
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: But I just I still feel very worn out, that's
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: the word for it. And I think it's been a
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: I probably I head back to back vacations and although
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: vacations are fun, traveling can be stressful, and especially when
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: like Nashville, I didn't sleep at all and it's a
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: lot so your body. It does. I feel like your
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: body takes a while to get back to normal, and
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: I think that for me, it was emotionally hard because
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: I had to leave my kids, and any parent out
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: there knows how hard that is, or maybe some don't,
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: because I feel like a lot of people I know
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: left and right, I see them on a mom's trip
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: or a girl's trip or a business trip, and they're
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: you know, they're not with their kids. So for me
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: it was harder. I've never left Julina. She's going to
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: be four in October, and I was never without her
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: more than a day, so that was really difficult for me.
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: I got through it, it was okay, but I think
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: the emotional wear and tear on that Sean, I could
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: tell you I was crying when I came to pick
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: her up to go to the airport, and I was
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: really upset. I was crying the whole way.
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: You were you were crying there.
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: Too, Yeah, so's it's hard and I think that that
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: definitely took a toll on me. So I feel for
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: parents who have to go through that and it's hard,
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: but I know that it is needed. I gotta start
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: to cut the mumbilical cord there.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: So what did you think of Nashville. It was my
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: first time actually going to the downtown, the city of Nashville.
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: I loved it. I think the energy there was what
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: I loved most about Nashville. Just walking through the crowds
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: and crowd there was so many people.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: It was almost like Manhattan.
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: Manhattan on like not just every day Manhattan. It was crazy.
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: It was crazy because in Manhattan I have a little
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: space to walk. There you were just bumpered a bumper,
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: like not bumpered to bump a person, a person walking.
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we were all like sardines.
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah. So to me, you know, like maybe I don't
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: know an event going on in the city, then you know,
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: that's what it was like. But so in thousands and
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: thousands of people, the energy, the bands, the music, the lights,
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: the the just how everyone was there to have a
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: good time. I loved that and you could feel that
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: as you walk down the street. What me and Seana
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: loved the most too, was so you have these bars
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: back to back to back, like all next to each other,
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: and they all have open windows, so there's no bait
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: like glass plane window on the front of the bar.
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: It's open, and each window has a band playing on
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: a stage right by the window, and as you pass them,
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: you're hearing, you know, like you're passing one's like blinkin
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: eighty two is they're playing that right there, and then
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: the next one is playing like a Jone Jet song
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: and the next one's playing a Miranda Lambert song and
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: you don't hear those songs until you get right in
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: front of it. And it's just like I loved it
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: so much, Like that was so cool to experience.
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: It really was. And I was just taken back by,
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: like you couldn't hear what the next bar was.
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: Playing now because you were just all you could hear
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: is what they were playing. And as soon as you
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: got past it was like boom, like switching the radio station.
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: I thought that was so cool.
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it was. It was amazing.
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: And they're all so talented, and I love that about Nashville.
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: There's just so much talent that you're like wow, Like
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: you know the musicians and clubs that are out there now,
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: but to just think about how how many everyday average
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: Joe's out there were all this talent that aren't out
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: there in the big lights, that haven't made it, but
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: they could. They could definitely get a record label so easily.
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: So that was really cool. Is to see that, Like
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: we went and saw Todd Cameron. It's funny because her
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: so good. Yeah, my friends will followed him, well, not
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: all of them. A few of my friends followed them.
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: And one of my friends actually knows him. And I
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: walked in not even knowing he was playing, and I'm
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: like this, his name sounds familiar, what the heck? And
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: I'm standing there and watching and yeah, he was absolutely phenomenal.
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: Is he from our area?
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: No, I don't believe he is, but he's he's down
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: there and he just the talent is oozing out of him,
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: and the way he works a crowd is just it
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: was crazy. But what I heard from a friend, like
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: who's friends with him, He was saying that Nashville used
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: to be a place where artists went to showcase their
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: music and get discovered, get discovered by playing their original music.
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: Then once these bachelorette parties started going there, and Nashville
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: became this hot spot for partygoers and the bachelorette parties.
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: And you can imagine, we saw it firsthand. All these
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: little drunk girls. What are they gonna want to hear?
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: They're gonna want to hear theirs songs that they're playing.
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: Can you play Britney spears. Can you play you know
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: what I mean?
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and their outfits.
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: I just.
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, every time we would be walking down the street,
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: I'm like, Lauren, look at this one.
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, they're butt cheeks hanging out and shaking their booties
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: on those things.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: The buses, the buses that went by.
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: It was insane.
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: It was.
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: I mean, I'm gonna get to that. But going back, so,
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: all these young girls are going there and they want
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: to hear their pop music. They want to hear the
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: songs that they like. They don't want to hear original music.
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: So they start either they're leaving. If you're playing original music,
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: they're leaving, or if you play the songs they request,
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: they're sticking around.
• 6:14
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: So it became Nashville became like less original and now
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: they're like cover bands. And I feel for him. I
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: feel for all those artists out there. I think we
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: were talking to Kobe Read, you know, when we did
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: our interview, and she said, it's hard. She gives them
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: a lot of credit because they had, you know, many
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: songs they had to memorize. They could they could play anything.
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: That's that's insane, that is absolutely I used to be
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: in a band and we had a practice, like I
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: think we had a set of seven songs, and we
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: had practice and practice and practice, and could I can't
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: even imagine if we had to know over a hundred
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: songs just randomly, like Kami Kazi. It like who's gonna
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: what are they gonna ask for today? I give them
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: so much credit. So but he was great, and like
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: every artist we saw was absolutely.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: He was great. We should really get him on the show.
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: I would love that. I would love it. And the
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: other cool part was that after we were I think
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: I left you or maybe you were with me. No, no,
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: you went back to the hotel. I was roam in
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: the streets the first night. I wanted to check out
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: Kyote Ugly because I love that movie. Growing up, I
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: used to be a Coyote Ugly girl in our local
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: town bars. I just sang and danced on the bars.
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: You know, probably could get in trouble for that, but
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: we it was great. So I needed to go to
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: Coyote and you did it sober? I did. I don't drink,
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: so yes, I was on the bar dancing and singing
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: sober and it was it was great. You know, I
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: loved it. I loved entertaining like that, and we did
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: the water fight. I have videos of it. It's like
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: when I look back at it, I'm like, oh my god,
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: my kids are gonna see this one day. But it
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: was fun. So, you know, I had to go to
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: Coyote Ugly and I was very disappointed.
• 7:54
  Speaker 4: I was.
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: So I walked into this place and I'm like, this
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: is not what I thought Coyote Ugly would be. There
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: was about a bunch of older women on the bar dancing,
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: not the workers, but like customers. It was very weird.
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: I ended up leaving, but I went into Old Red
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: again because you know, I saw Todd Cameron the night before,
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: and I went in there to see who was playing.
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: And I look up on the screen and it says
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: Hudson Valley Band and we're from the Hudson Valley guys. Yeah,
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: And then I remembered, oh my god, I'm an idiot.
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: My friend from up here in the Hudson Valley and
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: his wife and they have a band and they moved
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: down to Nashville and it's called the Hudson Valley Band.
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: So my friend was there and his wife, so I
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: was like, oh, Rich is here. He's the drummer of
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: the band. His wife is the singer. She is so so,
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: so freaking good. The whole band is good. But that
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: was cool to see someone from our hometown in a bar, right.
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: I wasn't expecting it, like you know, so that was
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: really cool for me.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: Nashville just really reminded me of like Broadway in New
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: York City.
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I could see that definitely, but with I
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: don't know, I feel like it was like a cooler,
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: cooler crowd. Maybe I don't know. I haven't been to
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: Manhattan in year, so you would know better than me.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: Well, I haven't been there on years either, so yeah,
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: but I mean it just reminded me. And it's funny
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: because it was only like one strip, like one street.
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: It wasn't even like the whole street. It was like
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: half of the street was just bars and just entertainment
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: non stop. And then it's like you turn the corner
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: and it's like you're in like what we call like Middletown. Yeah.
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: It was quieter and quieter except except at night. The
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: uh there was motorcycles going by, couldn't sleep, fire trucks
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: going police.
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, part of I guess being in the city.
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: It's crazy, but I felt safe there. I have to say.
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: I would not feel as safe as I did in
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: New York City on New York City streets, Oh no.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: And I felt super safe there. There was cops like
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: every few feet. Security was outside of every bar, in
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: every bar. They were on top of their ship. We
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: saw at one point they were like kicking people out.
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah, they were. They were definitely on there, on top
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: of things. There's I feel they have to deal with
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: a lot. There's the inebriation on that tree of people
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: being wasted out of their minds was absolutely insane. Oh
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: my god, insane.
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah.
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: There.
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: We were walking back the first night, I believe, and
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: some drunk guy he couldn't even walk straight. He kept
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: bumping into my mom and he like almost like ran
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: right indoor. Yeah, well he did run right indoor and
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: he almost like pushed her over. I was like, what
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: are you doing? Yeah, So I was like, I was like,
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: come here. I was like, just slow down, let him go,
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: you know, up ahead of us.
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah. That doesn't work all the time. No, Right, So
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: I promised you guys a crazy story. I mean, maybe
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: it's not that crazy, but it was a scary story,
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: and it had to do with I went out every
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: night by myself, pretty much like you know, Shona went back,
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: you know, at a certain time, and I was like,
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna stay out. I'm a partier. I love partying,
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: I love bands, love you know, walking around. So everyone
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: was telling me, don't do that. It's dangerous.
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, my friends were all saying, be careful, it's dangerous.
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: It's you know, don't stay out too late. And I'm
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: thinking to myself. After the first night, I'm like, why,
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: Like this is fine.
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what I was saying. So the first night
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: I went out, I stayed till like midnight. I'm like, oh,
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: And I made a post that I was saying I
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: was fine. Everything was fine. It was great everyone. You know,
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: there's a lot of people. I felt safe.
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: It was a Thursday night.
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Saturday night, it's a whole different ballpark I had.
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: I went out. I wanted to see my friend's band,
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: the Hudson Valley. They were playing again, so I went
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: and watched them, and I was having such a good
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: time that I didn't realize the time. Once I looked,
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: I'm like, oh my god, it's almost two in the morning.
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: So I started, I said my goodbyes, I started heading out,
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: and as soon as I exited that old red bar,
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: I could feel the shift in the crowd and it
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: was different. It was a different crowd out there, and
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: I'm like, I have to walk how many blocks to
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: my hotel by myself? And I don't feel safe right?
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: And it was okay. I was like, all right, maybe
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: I'm just being dramatic. So I start walking and I
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: felt soon as I walked out of that bar, I
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: felt like someone was following me, and I have like
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: a good you know, people have gut feelings. I had
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: a gut feeling someone was following me, and I kept
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: looking behind my shoulder and it was hard to tell. Well,
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: after a few blocks, I still felt that way, and
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: I noticed this guy was walking alongside of me. He
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: was closer to the road, I was closer to the buildings,
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: and he was just walking in step with me. And
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: if I slowed down, he slowed down. And he kept
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: looking at me and then looking away really quick, like
• 12:51
  Speaker 3: really awkward, you know, And I'm like, hmm, should I
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: overreact about this or you know, the guy was very
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: well dressed, clean, you know, he didn't look like a
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: homeless guy. He didn't look like a weirdo, but I
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: was getting a bad gut feeling. So after it kept
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: going on, I'm like, I'm just gonna stop. I'm gonna
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: go to the wall. I try to find someone safe.
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: And yeah, I passed a few security guards, but they
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: were dealing with their own drama that I'm like, they're
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: not gonna be able to help me, you know.
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: So I saw these two men that were in the
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: inlet of this wall. I didn't know them. They were
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: there smoking, talking to each other, and I just like,
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: those guys, I'm gonna go buy them. So I put
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: my back to the wall by them, not really close
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: but in their area, and I'm like, let me see
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: if I'm overreacting. Maybe the guy is gonna go and
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: just keep walking. Well, I stopped put my back against
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: the wall, and the guy kept walking, and I'm like, Lauren,
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: you're such an idiot, like you always freak out about things.
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: And just as I was thinking those thoughts, the guy
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: stopped dead in his track and he just stood there
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: and I'm like, oh shit. He turned around, looked me
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: in the eye and ran at me like he belined
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: it right to me and he put his nose like
• 13:59
  Speaker 3: his nose was an inch from my face and he
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: grabbed my hand, my wrist. It wasn't my full hand,
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: so he had my wrist and my palm in his
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: hand and he's like, Hi, Hi, Hi, I'm Parker. What's
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: your name? Hi? I've been watching you. Your eyes are gorgeous.
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: You have beautiful eyes. And he's that close to my
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: face and I'm with my other hand because my one
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: hand he has it, I can't move it. I'm trying
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: to grab my little weapon I took up me on
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: the trip, my little keychain weapon just in case you're
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: like just stab in. So I'm trying to keep him talking.
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: I was like, my name's Lauren. I said how are you?
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: And I'm trying to get it, and that's all I said.
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: And he was getting closer, and the two guys next
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: to me noticed. I didn't have to yell, I didn't
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: have to scream. I didn't have to say anything. They
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: ran over and were like, who the f are you?
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: Do you know this guy? And I said no, and
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: then so they start pushing him and he like, get
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: away from her, get the f out of here, and
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: the guy pushed him in the chest. I mean, my
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: heroes I'm gonna call them, pushed the creep so hard
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: in the chest. And the creepy guy he had evil
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: in his eye. I'm telling you guys this, He just
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: he freaked me out. And he looked at the guy
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: who pushed him and said, I wouldn't recommend you doing
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: that again, just like that, just like all the freaking
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: serial killer movies I've watched, I wouldn't recommend you doing
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: that again. And I think it freaked them out a
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: little bit. And then but he kept going at him
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: and the guy just took off running. The creepy guy ran,
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: so the one guy chased him down, just kept chasing him,
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: and the other guy with me is like, are you okay?
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: And I'm like, I'm okay. I was like, how did
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: you know that? I how did you know to help me?
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: He goes, He goes, we're Dad's We just had this
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: sixth sense that something wasn't right there. And that guy,
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: he's like, that guy had a really bad look in
• 15:41
  Speaker 3: his eye. He reminded me of Dexter. And I've never
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: seen the show.
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: I've never seen it either, but I've heard about it.
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he's like he was like dexter or some kind
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: of serial killer vibe in his eyes. I said, I
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: felt the same way, and he's like, that's really scary.
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: He's like he had your hand. I can't believe he
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: was like grabbing you that way. I'm like, I know.
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: I'm like, I don't know what could have happen, and
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: guys like I really don't because there were people out,
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: but you just never know, you know, yeah, you never know.
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: And how did he pick you out of the crowd.
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: I know that he must have. Maybe he was in
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: the bar watching me. That's what I'm wondering. I was
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: by myself the whole night at that bar, watching my
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: friends play. I didn't drink, and maybe he will follow
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: me out of the bar, you know. That's why I
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: felt that bad vibe as soon as I exited the bar.
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: I don't know, but long story kind of short. I
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: think the other guy came back. He's like, I can't
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: find him. He ran, he went down an alleyway. I
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: couldn't find him anymore. I was like, no, thank you
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: so much. I appreciate it. And he said that guy
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: had a dexter look in his eye. So I'm like,
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: what the hell, like we all felt it. And they said,
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: are you okay? Do you need anything? I said, I
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: don't know. I got to get back to my hotel.
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: They're like, you know, do you want us to walk you?
• 16:49
  Speaker 3: And I said yes. And I know my husband I
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: first was upset about that. He's like, what if they
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: were bad? I said, I just felt in my gut
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: that they were good guys. You know, that's why I
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: can't And they said, I you sure, We don't want
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: to make you feel uncomfortable. And they made a joke
• 17:03
  Speaker 3: that like, we're Canadians. You don't have to worry about us.
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: We're from Canada. So I was cracking up because you know,
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: the mid like Canadians are these like super friendly nice people,
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: you know? Yeah, but they were. They walked me all
• 17:14
  Speaker 3: the way back to my hotel, right to the door
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: of the hotel, and I took a picture with them
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: out to post it. They were great. I didn't even
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: get their names, but they were so nice and they're
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: both were dads, and uh, they just had that gut
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: feeling too. So I want to say this, if we
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: have any male listeners, or you have sons or husbands
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: or brothers or boyfriends tell them look out for us women.
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: We need to be looked out for and as tough
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: and bad and all these like independent women want to
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: act like they are, we're not. At the end of
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: the day, yeah we're not.
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: We're not.
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: And things if you are always aware and looking around
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: and looking out for people and other women or for women,
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: that can save our lives just like that. I don't
• 17:57
  Speaker 3: know what could have happened with this man. I don't
• 17:59
  Speaker 3: know what he could have done. Maybe he couldn't have
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: done anything. Maybe he could have hurt me. I don't know.
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: Maybe he could have drugged me. But no matter what,
• 18:07
  Speaker 3: they stepped in and they walked me and made me
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: feel safe. They walked me right to my hotel room.
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: And it was just an amazing feeling to know like
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: that there's still people out there that you can trust.
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, definitely, And you know I wouldn't. I would have
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: been scared to death. I probably would have shipped my pants.
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: Maybe that would have chased them away. I oh, no,
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: screwless one.
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: But on the other hand, there's cops around. Yeah, so
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: that guy had balls doing what he did.
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: Mm hmmm. I have to say, though, Shaana, there wasn't
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: because I would have. Since my husband's a cop, I
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: was gonna go right to a cop. At that time
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: of night, there was cop cars in the road with
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: their lights on, but there have no cops in them,
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: so I don't know if they were all dealing maybe
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: with the situation at a bar. But I because I
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: was looking as I felt this person or felt like
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: someone was following me, I was looking like, let me
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: find a cop, and they were all the cop cars
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: were empty. They had their lights on, but I'm like,
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: maybe they're dealing with a fight somewhere. You know, it
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: could have been.
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: So when we were walking back around ten or eleven,
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: the cop cars were in the road.
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, they with the lights on, Okay, they were.
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: There was nobody in the cars. They were outside of
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: the cars watching the crowd.
• 19:20
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: I didn't see any cops. I mean I saw one,
• 19:23
  Speaker 3: but that was back closer to Old Red So by
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: the time I was feeling really scared, there wasn't anyone around.
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: So that's why I was like, they're probably in a
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: bar dealing with a fight or something. Probably because I
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: would have That's who I would have went to right away,
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: was a cop, Like, hey, I'm an officer's wife. Can
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: you like just help me here? I don't feel safe.
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: But luckily I found two great dads from Canada and
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: I called them my little angels and they were great.
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: So gott it you. And the other thing I brought
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: up to Shana is that what's scary is imagine if
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: I was drunk. Imagine if I was one of these
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: girls out there drinking my butt off.
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: Maybe that's what he thought me and I I was told.
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: My friend said that Nashville has become a predator's dreamland
• 20:04
  Speaker 3: because there's so many drunk women out there that it's easy.
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: It's easy for predators, even if they're not serial killers.
• 20:10
  Speaker 3: It's easy for predators, rapists, whatever, to take advantage of
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: these women. And I've got to tell you, there was
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: so many. They were hanging on me and the bar.
• 20:17
  Speaker 3: These drunk girls. They don't know what the hell they're doing,
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: They don't know where they are. That's so dangerous. So again,
• 20:23
  Speaker 3: for the ladies, please mind your liquor, have fun drinks something,
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: But you gotta be so careful because that situation could
• 20:30
  Speaker 3: have gone a whole another way. If I was drunk,
• 20:33
  Speaker 3: If I was drunk or on drugs that could have
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: I could have God only knows what could have happened
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: to me.
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's so scary. And you know, not everyone is
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: like us, you know, we don't drink. Yeah, but the
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: amount of drunk people like I would say ninety eight
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: percent of the people were drunk.
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah. And it's fine, Like it's fine to have
• 20:56
  Speaker 3: drinks that have fun, like that's fine, we're not against
• 20:59
  Speaker 3: that or not like these.
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: No, but when you're falling down drunk, you don't know,
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: you don't know where you are, where you are, you
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: don't know your name, you don't know your boyfriend's name
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: or who your boyfriend is. Yeah, you know that's a problem.
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: It is, and that could and that guy could have
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: taken event maybe he does. Maybe that's what that guy does.
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: He goes around and he gets these drunk women. And
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: but I think I would look into missing girls over
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: there and it might be probably know, if there are any,
• 21:29
  Speaker 3: I wouldn't put it past this man. So yeah, just
• 21:32
  Speaker 3: be careful, not just in Nashville, anywhere you go, you
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: got you have to know your limit for your own safety,
• 21:39
  Speaker 3: unless you're there with someone who's sober, who can keep
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: control of you, but a lot of these girl groups
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: were not. They were all they were all done.
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: No. Indeed, the guy that the girl that came up
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: to you in the bar, her boyfriend could even keep
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: control over her.
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: No, yeah, there was a girl that came up. I
• 21:56
  Speaker 3: saw a girl being dragged out of the bar by
• 21:59
  Speaker 3: a man, and Seanna knows me. I step in, Yes,
• 22:03
  Speaker 3: when I shouldn't because I'm not big, But whenever I
• 22:05
  Speaker 3: see something going down, I always step in and try
• 22:08
  Speaker 3: and protect somebody. And this girl was being dragged out,
• 22:11
  Speaker 3: like by her wrist, and she was screaming and no
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: one was doing anything. So I ran over there. I
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: said are you okay? And he let go of her
• 22:18
  Speaker 3: and she grabbed me and she just held on to
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: me so tight, hugging me, and I could tell she
• 22:22
  Speaker 3: was wasted. And he's like, this is effin bullshit. He
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: starts cursing, and I'm like, this guy's big. I'm like,
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: what if he like punches me or something. Yeah, So
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: I said, is everything okay? And he stormed away, and
• 22:33
  Speaker 3: then I said to her, are you okay? She's like
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: I'm afraid. I said, what are you afraid of? She's like,
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: I'm from Minnesota, so she didn't even know the conversation
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: we were having. She says, she's afraid, and then her response
• 22:44
  Speaker 3: to me is, I'm from Minnesota. Like you're afraid you're
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: from Minnesota? Or are we having two different conversations here?
• 22:50
  Speaker 3: But yeah, her boyfriend came back over and she's like,
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: he's coming back. He's coming back, and I'm like, oh crap,
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: what am I gonna do? He's huge. So I just
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: stood there looking up at him. I'm like, what's the
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: deal here? He's like, that's my girlfriend and I'm like,
• 23:05
  Speaker 3: you want her to leave? He's like, yeah, she's drunk.
• 23:07
  Speaker 3: I said, okay, well she doesn't want to go, and
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: you know you doesn't look at it. You're pulling her
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: and he goes, I'll show you pictures. So he took
• 23:14
  Speaker 3: out his phone. He goes, we have four. I took
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: on four of her kids. They're not even mine, and
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: they had pictures together with kids. Does it mean anything?
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: Maybe they're separated? I don't know, but he's like I said,
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: he's like, she's wasted. I want her to go home
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: and she's like no, And then a guy next to
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: me finally stepped in. He was brave enough once he
• 23:31
  Speaker 3: saw me standing up to the guy to step in,
• 23:33
  Speaker 3: and then that just made matters worse. But yeah, they
• 23:37
  Speaker 3: ended up fighting in the bar and then the security
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: came out, came over and kicked them out. You know,
• 23:41
  Speaker 3: Like it's crazy to me. So I get it that
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: even when you are with someone, sometimes you can't control
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: when people are that wasted.
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: No, you can't. And you know security had to deal
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: with it. And who knows, they were probably fighting in
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: the parking lot. Yeah, in the streets, and I guarantee
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: she has no recollection of it.
• 24:02
  Speaker 3: No, and the poor guy, I mean, if he's a
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: good guy. The next day, i'd be pissed at her.
• 24:06
  Speaker 3: If that was my significant other, I'd be pissed, Like,
• 24:09
  Speaker 3: you know, I don't don't think this is gonna work out.
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I would be furious.
• 24:13
  Speaker 3: It made me look like an a hole. You made
• 24:14
  Speaker 3: me look like an abusive boyfriend when I'm just trying
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: to save you and get you out of this place.
• 24:19
  Speaker 3: I mean, if that's the case, it could have been
• 24:20
  Speaker 3: a different case, something scarier. But crazy know your limit.
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: So after that whole situation, we decided we needed a
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: day of relaxation, well part of a day of relaxation
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: because we were literally on the go from morning till night.
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: So we took a few hours to sit by the pool,
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: which was beautiful. It overlooked the city. It was absolutely gorgeous.
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: The water was not cold really at all, and the
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: whole pool was three foot deep. I couldn't believe that.
• 24:55
  Speaker 3: It's perfect for it was walk around the whole thing, yeah,
• 24:58
  Speaker 3: without drowning.
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I didn't even really go into it because I'm
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: not one for public pools, but I you know, we
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: did sit in it for a little bit.
• 25:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it was nice.
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: My poppy lush beating suit fit me perfectly and it
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: sucked me all in. I couldn't believe it. I was like,
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: this is the best beating suit ever.
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: I told her, I said, Populush is the way to
• 25:22
  Speaker 3: go if you're trying to hide some of that. You know,
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: we all all swim and have it, you know, the
• 25:26
  Speaker 3: little belly, So Populush is just They're amazing with that
• 25:30
  Speaker 3: Number one, I have to say, with making you look
• 25:33
  Speaker 3: hot as crap.
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: I couldn't believe when you said like, oh, it's gonna
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: suck you in, I'm thinking, oh God, I'm not gonna
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: be able to breathe, but I was able to breathe.
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: It was tight, but I was able to breathe.
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: And it's comfortable. It's like tight but comfortable somehow. Yeah,
• 25:47
  Speaker 3: it was beautiful. It was a black, black one piece,
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: but it was so it just showed her shape. It
• 25:54
  Speaker 3: was really it was very flattering. Very flattering, that's the
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: word I was looking for. I love Populus, you know,
• 25:59
  Speaker 3: I've I bought from them for the past few years
• 26:02
  Speaker 3: that they've been around dresses mainly, but that bathing suit
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: made me. I think I'm gonna have to put one
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: of those in my bathing suit Arsenal.
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: It was beautiful and I'm not one for like one pieces. Yeah,
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: but I think I'm gonna have to start going into
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: one pieces because.
• 26:20
  Speaker 3: We're getting old.
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: Yes we are. But you wore the populush dress to
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: Dolly Parton's musical.
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: Yes, oh my god. I picked out a royal blue populush.
• 26:32
  Speaker 3: It's like a roofed body con kind of dress. So
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: it was right above the knees and it was very flattering.
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: Sucked me in, he hugged me in all the right places.
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: I loved it. I love the color too, and they
• 26:45
  Speaker 3: have little shorts under it, so you don't feel like
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: you're gonna be showing your butt like a lot of
• 26:49
  Speaker 3: those girls on the strip, where yeah, it comes with shorts,
• 26:53
  Speaker 3: so I don't worry about that.
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: They need to start shopping up Populush.
• 26:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but I love that the brand makes you feel sexy,
• 27:03
  Speaker 3: especially as a mom or as as we're getting older.
• 27:05
  Speaker 3: It makes you feel sexy. You look sexy, your your
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: hip and you're sucked in in all the right places.
• 27:11
  Speaker 3: And I love that about about Populush.
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I love them. I got one of their bras,
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: and their bras are so comfortable. Yes, I couldn't believe it.
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: Swears by them.
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: And like, because of my scoliosis, it doesn't ride up,
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: you know, the bathing suit fit perfectly. I absolutely love them.
• 27:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I highly They have so many different things, so
• 27:35
  Speaker 3: many muck. They have so many different options on their website.
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: So there's there's dresses, there's pants or shirts, corsets, the bras,
• 27:46
  Speaker 3: so there's just something for everyone. And they do cater
• 27:49
  Speaker 3: to women who are more blessed in the chest. So
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: that's how they started was for bigger bust women and
• 27:59
  Speaker 3: but I'm not and it fits me. It fits me perfect.
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: So while we were in Nashville, we decided let's meet
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: up with some local artists and hear their stories. So
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: we met up with a singer songwriter, Kobe Read. She
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: was amazing.
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: I felt, I'm in love with her. I'm in love
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: with her. I want her to be my best friend.
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: She was so cool, she was so nice, so sweet,
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: and talented, very talented. Oh my gosh, she actually songwrites
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: for other artists as well.
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: I know, I thought that was that was just so cool.
• 28:38
  Speaker 3: And now that she's branching into her own stuff, and
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: you know, she got such a following just from people
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: hearing her her. She does like country rap, you know,
• 28:49
  Speaker 3: and singing, but like she's kind of like meshing the two.
• 28:53
  Speaker 3: I think it's just genius. It's so cool.
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: It's brilliant. And she started off basically during just making
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: TikTok videos and she would she told us that she
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: would just post up a video or two and forget
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: about him for a few weeks and then post up
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: some more. And then she noticed, like her videos are
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: really getting a lot of traction and a lot of attention,
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: and she just blew up.
• 29:19
  Speaker 3: I know, I'm so happy. So it was great talking
• 29:23
  Speaker 3: to her, catching up and hearing how from where she
• 29:26
  Speaker 3: came and how far she's going. So and I love
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: her music. There's a lot of songs that I've just
• 29:31
  Speaker 3: been playing on repeating. My husband's like, what are you
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: still listening to her?
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: I'm like, I love it, but I guess we'll jump
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: in to our interview with her. You're listening to Shauna
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: and La La Today. We are in Nashville. We are
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: interviewing singer and songwriter Kobe Read today. I'm so excited
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: to have you.
• 29:52
  Speaker 4: Thank you so much for having me.
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: So you started on TikTok yes and just up during.
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: COVID Yes, which was really really unexpected and really like
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: a fun kind of story.
• 30:08
  Speaker 4: I guess you would say an unexpected kind of thing.
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: I would say, so, I mean, I guess it makes sense.
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: Everybody was home exactly, and that's kind of yeah, that's kind.
• 30:19
  Speaker 4: Of like how it started. I was a writer. I
• 30:22
  Speaker 4: originally from northern California, but I moved.
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: Out to southern California, was going music school and ended
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: up being music school dropout and was a writer and
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: that world and the hip hop world for a while.
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: And I was about to have my first cut I
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: was really excited about. And then COVID happened and just
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: everything shut down and I was super bummed, and my
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: boyfriend I was like, well, like, everyone's home, we're not
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: doing anything. We're all, you know what I mean, just
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: at home, and TikTok's kind of booming. He's like, why
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: don't we just start filming videos and just post them
• 30:55
  Speaker 2: and just see what they do. And at that point,
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: I was kind of in the limbo of being a writer,
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: but also kind of I'm an only child, so I
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: always wanted to be an artist, but I was a
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: little bit insecure about taking that step of doing it.
• 31:09
  Speaker 4: And he's like, let's just do it.
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: Let's just throw them on there and post them and
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: then forget about him and just you know, post them
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: close the app.
• 31:16
  Speaker 4: Whatever happens happened.
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: I was like, okay, and yeah, he just filmed me
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: in front of these hedges outside of his apartment complex
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: and I was just like freestyling overbeats that he would play,
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: and yeah, we would just post them close the app,
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: post them close the app.
• 31:29
  Speaker 4: And I was so funny because.
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: I was so focused on Instagram at the time, you know,
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: like promoting and you know what I mean, like posting
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: them and commenting back that I didn't even think about TikTok.
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: And then one day we opened the app and we
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: just posted about like four or five of them back
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: to back. We opened the app and I had like
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty thousand followers, and we.
• 31:49
  Speaker 4: Were like, what the hell, what just happened? And then
• 31:53
  Speaker 4: we went back and.
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: We saw, yeah, the I did like a eminem freestyle
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: of my name is like a yellow jumpsuit and it
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: had like three hundred thousand views on it overnight. And yeah,
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: just from there and then we were like, all right,
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: we's that momentum, Let's keep going. And then we just
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: posted once to twice a week just different freestyles and
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: things that I would do, freestyles written like all these
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: different things, and songs and stuff that I had archived
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: or songs that I was pitching for other artists, just
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: to kind of see if it would get anytraction. And yeah,
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: just from there it just kind of went off. TikTok
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: was Cooey read was on TikTok.
• 32:31
  Speaker 3: And is that how you got started in industry? Or
• 32:34
  Speaker 3: I don't know if you were saying beforehand you were
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: kind of right.
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, So I was trying to kind of break into
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: it as a writer first and foremost, so the artist
• 32:42
  Speaker 2: thing came a little bit later. And even when all
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: the freestyles and stuff were happening, I always kind of
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: wanted to do the avenue and.
• 32:49
  Speaker 4: The music that I was doing now, but I didn't
• 32:51
  Speaker 4: really know what that looked like.
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: You know, I grew up writing living an hour outside
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: of the area in Oakland, California, and San Francisco and
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: Dominantly that music scene is very hip hop oriented, so
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: you know, and I didn't come from money, so my parents.
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: I had a one income family. My dad was a
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: garbage band, my mom, you know, did dog rescue and stuff.
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: And it was one of those things where I had
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: to make it happen on my own. And it's kind
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: of get in where you fit in, and if you
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: were doing any type of pop or country or even
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: rock around.
• 33:25
  Speaker 4: That area, they wanted money from you.
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: But the hip hop scene and kind of where I
• 33:30
  Speaker 2: grew up and all the kids around that were a
• 33:32
  Speaker 2: little bit older than me, but we're still really into
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: music in garage band and recording and just finding ripping
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: beats off YouTube and all that stuff.
• 33:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they just kind of I was like twelve years
• 33:43
  Speaker 4: old and they were like fifteen.
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: They're like, hey, we have this makeshift studio. Let's you
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: know what I mean, start making music. And so that's
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: kind of how it happened, and I kind of dove
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: into hip hop. I like I say, hip hop kind
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: of chose me in that aspect and I just loved
• 33:56
  Speaker 2: it and I kind of got integrated into that scene
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: and then decided when I was eighteen, I wanted to
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: move to LA and went to music school because I
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: really wanted to kind.
• 34:05
  Speaker 4: Of dive into that.
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: But it was just from there just kind of progressed
• 34:09
  Speaker 2: and I was always doing hip hop and it was
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: always kind of where I got connected first with music.
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: But I always kind of wanted to sing, do that
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: kind of side of me, and growing up in Vacaville,
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: which is kind of an agricultural kind of town but still,
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: you know, we kind of have that sauce because we're
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: like right on that border of the Bay Area as well.
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: So kind of conforming and making the music that I'm
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: making now is what I always wanted to do. But
• 34:37
  Speaker 2: back then I didn't really know what that looked like.
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: I knew that jumping in. I knew how to wrap,
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: I knew how I knew how to do all this,
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: and I was really good at it. And I was like, Okay,
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna kind of see where this goes, and hopefully
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: when I start making my own music can kind of
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: direct producers or kind of.
• 34:54
  Speaker 4: Tell them what kind of sound that I was going for.
• 34:56
  Speaker 4: And now here we are.
• 34:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I love it, like you blend country and the
• 35:00
  Speaker 3: hip hop and loong before it became trendy, like yeah,
• 35:03
  Speaker 3: way before that.
• 35:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so it's kind of crazy. Like I said, like I.
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: Came out to Nashville, I was in LA for a
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: few years and then I met my manager Nick, and
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: I kind of told him, you know, immediately when I
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: first sat down because they found me on TikTok course,
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: and I was like, hey, I just want you to know,
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: like I'm not just a rapper, like I'm a I'm
• 35:25
  Speaker 2: a songwriter. And I've always said that first and foremost.
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: I'm a writer first more than anything.
• 35:30
  Speaker 4: And he was like, no, I know, and he's like,
• 35:32
  Speaker 4: what what do you want to do?
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: And I was like, well, I kind of want to
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: integrate like country pop and with hip hop and kind
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: of make it like saucy.
• 35:38
  Speaker 4: And that's what I always say.
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: My favorite word is like saucy, cause that's kind of
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: like what it is like. Kind of crazy too, because
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: I felt like I was a littlehead of the curve.
• 35:45
  Speaker 2: I came out here in twenty twenty two and I
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: was shopping wild Card and trying to and everybody was.
• 35:50
  Speaker 4: Like, whoa, this is a little bit too like to
• 35:53
  Speaker 4: off the.
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: Richter scale, especially in the country space at Nashville. And
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: now it's artist natural, ye, And so now there's like
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: a scene but you know what I mean, it's kind
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: of like in its own little niche kind of thing,
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: but now it's exploding even bigger and you see people
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: coming from every direction kind of doing that sound.
• 36:11
  Speaker 4: It's kind of cool.
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: It's actually to see that it's it's branching out and.
• 36:15
  Speaker 4: It's finally becoming you started it.
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: I wouldn't say I started it. There was probably definitely
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: a lot of people that came before me. But I
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: will say that it was one of those things where
• 36:24
  Speaker 2: I feel like, yeah, in twenty twenty two, when I
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: first started kind of coming out here and releasing it
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: and trying to find producers, and it was it was hard. Actually,
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: when I first came out here, I was really excited.
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: I came out here for three weeks just to kind
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: of like feel everything out, and had like twelve sessions
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: lined up, and every single one of them canceled on
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: me except for one.
• 36:45
  Speaker 4: When I first came out here. Yeah, I think it was.
• 36:48
  Speaker 4: I think it was because they just didn't really know
• 36:50
  Speaker 4: what to expect. I didn't have any music out.
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: They just knew me, like they just saw my TikTok
• 36:55
  Speaker 2: following and my freestyles and stuff like.
• 36:57
  Speaker 4: That, and they were kind of like, what I was
• 36:59
  Speaker 4: this gonna yeah, like what are we going to make?
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: I don't have anything, So I don't blame them in
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: that aspect, But it's it's funny because now it's it's
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: a funny story to tell and everything kind of doing
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: so well, and I'm finally making the music that I've
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: always wanted to make. It's really cool kind of see
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: how it blossomed and how I just stuck with it
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: and kept going and.
• 37:20
  Speaker 4: We love that.
• 37:21
  Speaker 3: Then that's why we like to showcase artists like you.
• 37:23
  Speaker 3: It's like taking your own unique style and it's like
• 37:26
  Speaker 3: your dream, right and you're and you're watching it's your
• 37:29
  Speaker 3: baby and to see it right now, come to fruition
• 37:32
  Speaker 3: and it's it's so successful. That's that must be an
• 37:35
  Speaker 3: amazing feeling. That's all I have to say.
• 37:37
  Speaker 4: Oh, for sure, definitely.
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: I think I think it's also a sign of persistence
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: that you just have to keep going regardless if people
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: get it.
• 37:45
  Speaker 4: There's a lot of people that aren't gonna get it.
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: But if they don't get it, then that's almost a
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: good thing because then you're doing something that just hasn't
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: been done before.
• 37:51
  Speaker 4: But like I said, there were you know what I mean.
• 37:53
  Speaker 4: And then later on I.
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: Found out that there was like a whole community of
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: like like a hip hop community or what they call
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: it or whatever. Yeah, that kind of like and I
• 38:02
  Speaker 2: was like, oh, there are people that kind of do this.
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: But I do feel like I'm not necessarily in that
• 38:08
  Speaker 2: genre specific I feel like it's like country.
• 38:10
  Speaker 4: Pop, like I said, with a little bit of sauce.
• 38:12
  Speaker 2: Like I kind of I wrap too, so I kind
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: of like to incorporate everything together. It's not like I'm
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: just full on wrapping country. It's you know what I mean,
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: It's a little bit of.
• 38:21
  Speaker 3: A good blend, very good blends.
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: Exactly like a pop esque country sound, which is which
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: is cool, and it allows me to kind of go
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: in different songwriting directions that I really want to go
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: to and storytelling and stuff that I really love doing.
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: So are you still writing music for other artists? Yeah? Yes,
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: just focusing on you.
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah no, uh so when the it depends on the project,
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: so I get reached out to sometimes. I definitely love
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: doing that still. Like I said, I've always considered myself
• 38:47
  Speaker 2: a writer first, So it's always fun and it's fun
• 38:50
  Speaker 2: to kind of wear different different faces or different artists,
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: and one of my favorite things is I like to
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: dive into that artist's catalog and try and write from
• 38:59
  Speaker 2: their perspective.
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: So do you feel like you're ahead of the curve
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: or being ahead of the curve? Do you feel that
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: it gave you an advantage of being one of the
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: first to have that sound or do you think it
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: still has challenges?
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: I think it still has challenges obviously. I think that
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: the music industry in general is always changing. So that's
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: kind of back to kind of what I was saying
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: about always just exercising and you know what I mean,
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: even writing for other people, even writing outside your genre
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: sometimes is always like good to do just because you
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: want to stay sharp, you want to stay current, you
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: want to make sure that you're ahead of a curve
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: instead of just following one.
• 39:40
  Speaker 4: And I think that's what's important and also knowing your strengths.
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: I wouldn't say that, I'm like, I like to try
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: and be ahead of the curve in a way. I
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: feel like when I first started kind of doing what
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: I was doing, it was almost like a tree in
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: the woods in a way because it was so new
• 39:59
  Speaker 2: and such a fresh kind of sound that was that
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: was happening. But now you know, with all these there's
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: so many major artists that are now kind of crossing
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: over from you know, hip hop worlds to whatever. I
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: would say that, like, obviously Jelly Roll was the first
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: person that really kind of transitioned from like the real
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: hip hop world to.
• 40:23
  Speaker 4: The country space.
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: But you know, I kind of not necessarily followed suit,
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: but I always knew that that's what I wanted to
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: do too, And I'm just kind of keep my head
• 40:33
  Speaker 2: down and just kind of focus on what I'm doing
• 40:36
  Speaker 2: and love what I'm doing, and kind of whatever plays out,
• 40:39
  Speaker 2: it's going to play out. In that aspect, try not
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: to think too much about it and just enjoy where
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: I'm at and the fact that I'm making the music
• 40:46
  Speaker 2: that I've always wanted to make and just being authentic
• 40:49
  Speaker 2: to myself.
• 40:50
  Speaker 3: You know, we love that. And your debut single Church, Yes,
• 40:54
  Speaker 3: they made top fifty on iTunes, right, that's.
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: Amazing debut, which was really really crazy and I wasn't expecting. Yeah,
• 41:00
  Speaker 2: especially doing that transition where it was like one of
• 41:03
  Speaker 2: the first singles that I put out and from everybody
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: knowing so much of the hip hop stuff that I
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: did was kind of nerve racking because it was a
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: little bit more of a singing song as well me
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: being insecure about my voice for so long and singing
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: and kind of integrating that into my sound.
• 41:18
  Speaker 4: I was really nervous on how people were going to
• 41:20
  Speaker 4: react to that.
• 41:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that was the second part of the question, is like,
• 41:23
  Speaker 3: do you feel like that was a turning point in
• 41:25
  Speaker 3: your career that getting through the.
• 41:26
  Speaker 4: Top fifty For sure.
• 41:28
  Speaker 2: I'd like to say that, you know, the universe kind
• 41:30
  Speaker 2: of gives you signs on specific things, and maybe it's
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: not gonna be like overnight, or it's going to be this,
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: or it's not going to be you know what.
• 41:36
  Speaker 4: I mean exactly how you anticipated. I mean, everybody when they.
• 41:40
  Speaker 2: Put out a song, in the back of their mind,
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: whether they want to admit it or.
• 41:43
  Speaker 4: Not, it's going to be like this is going to
• 41:45
  Speaker 4: be a smash. Everyone's gonna love it.
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: It's it's so good, you know it's gonna be number one,
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: or else you wouldn't be, you know what I mean,
• 41:53
  Speaker 2: doing what you're doing. You wouldn't believe in yourself as
• 41:55
  Speaker 2: much to put in the time and the effort to
• 41:56
  Speaker 2: really put yourself out there and do what you're doing
• 41:58
  Speaker 2: at a specific level. Yeah, I just kind of took
• 42:01
  Speaker 2: that as I'm exactly where I need to be. This
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: is exactly, this feels right. I love it, and most
• 42:08
  Speaker 2: of all, like I love what I'm doing, like I
• 42:11
  Speaker 2: love the music that I'm making. I've never made more
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: music that I've been connected to that felt more authentic
• 42:16
  Speaker 2: to me than what I'm making now. So yes, nearly
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: the universe is in support of that. So I just
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: got to keep going and keeping.
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: You're challenging yourself exactly, Yeah, and it's working out and.
• 42:25
  Speaker 2: Kind of trying to make a new sound in a way,
• 42:27
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean saying in that In that
• 42:30
  Speaker 2: you know, having country elements but also being pop but
• 42:33
  Speaker 2: also incorporating that hip hop element that I grew up making.
• 42:37
  Speaker 4: It's authentic to me.
• 42:38
  Speaker 2: I couldn't be happier with with what I'm doing now.
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: And what are you currently working on?
• 42:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so we're actually so I've been putting out singles
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: for the past you know, two three years, two and
• 42:48
  Speaker 2: a half years or so. Ultimately I want to put
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: out an album probably during fall, around fall time is
• 42:55
  Speaker 2: what we're projecting. Obviously, things could happen. I'm always writing
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: and I'm always creating new stuff, and this is the
• 43:01
  Speaker 2: next one, No, this is the next one. Wait, no,
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: this one beat this one. No, I like this one
• 43:05
  Speaker 2: more so I'm always kind of but it's also such
• 43:08
  Speaker 2: a beautiful thing because I feel like as an artist,
• 43:11
  Speaker 2: that's what you want to continue doing is leveling up
• 43:13
  Speaker 2: and making sure that your next, your next single beats
• 43:17
  Speaker 2: your last single.
• 43:19
  Speaker 4: Like oh, it just keeps getting.
• 43:20
  Speaker 2: Better and better and I'm learning more and I know more,
• 43:23
  Speaker 2: and it just it makes it more fun, it makes
• 43:25
  Speaker 2: it more challenging, like you said on yourself, because you're like, no,
• 43:28
  Speaker 2: I want to beat that last like that single, Like
• 43:30
  Speaker 2: everyone loves that like everyone loves wild Card, Well guess
• 43:33
  Speaker 2: what they're gonna love when I drink?
• 43:35
  Speaker 4: You know what I mean. It's it's a different vibe,
• 43:36
  Speaker 4: but it's, you know, still in that same realm.
• 43:39
  Speaker 3: I love thee. My favorite line was he doesn't like
• 43:44
  Speaker 3: when I drink, and I don't like it when he thinks,
• 43:46
  Speaker 3: but I don't like him like he thinks. Yeah, got
• 43:50
  Speaker 3: it wrong. I love that one.
• 43:52
  Speaker 4: Honestly, that works too, though.
• 43:53
  Speaker 2: It's so funny because a lot of people, a lot
• 43:55
  Speaker 2: of people get that too, and they'll be like, oh man,
• 43:57
  Speaker 2: I don't like it when he thinks, but it's it.
• 43:59
  Speaker 4: Is so true, you know.
• 44:02
  Speaker 2: And it's so funny too because with when I Drink specifically,
• 44:05
  Speaker 2: it's such a cheeky fun song and you'd be amazed
• 44:10
  Speaker 2: how many people get so like bent out.
• 44:12
  Speaker 4: Of shape about it. And I'm like, come on, like,

  Speaker 1: Do you actually go downtown? So this was our first
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: time to Nashville? Really? Yes, So going downtown last night
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: was really cool seeing all the bars, all the people,
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: and every bar had a different band or performer. Yes,
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: and you couldn't hear from the next bar over like
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: the it's so weird.
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: But like sound installation is crazy those bars, Like I
• 45:00
  Speaker 2: don't know how.
• 45:01
  Speaker 4: They do it.
• 45:02
  Speaker 2: I don't know, except for when you're walking you can
• 45:04
  Speaker 2: just hear everything, but then when you go inside you
• 45:07
  Speaker 2: can just hear that band.
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Do you perform at any of these bars?
• 45:11
  Speaker 2: Uh?
• 45:12
  Speaker 4: Not necessarily on Broadway? I haven't. I haven't done that yet.
• 45:15
  Speaker 2: Well, I've done like Whiskey Jam, I've done like Riley's

• 45:22
  Speaker 2: like a lot of like the showcases and stuff in Nashville.
• 45:25
  Speaker 2: But I wouldn't say I have been like a Broadway performer.
• 45:31
  Speaker 2: So there's kind of like different girls. So there that's
• 45:33
  Speaker 2: like a whole entity of its own that's like.
• 45:36
  Speaker 4: A whole beast of its own.
• 45:39
  Speaker 2: And honestly, I give props to them because the amount
• 45:42
  Speaker 2: of they, I mean, mail perform for like five hours
• 45:45
  Speaker 2: straight and just hustle and play and sing and take requests,
• 45:52
  Speaker 2: and the amount of knowledge of just songs that you
• 45:55
  Speaker 2: have to have because you have to stay on top
• 45:57
  Speaker 2: of it and stay current. I don't even know if
• 45:59
  Speaker 2: I could do it. So I give so much props
• 46:01
  Speaker 2: to them because I as much as I would love to,
• 46:04
  Speaker 2: and probably at one point I would, I would love
• 46:06
  Speaker 2: to just do it just for a night to see.
• 46:08
  Speaker 4: You know what I mean to do it to say like, yeah,
• 46:10
