- 0:50Speaker 3: your chest?
- 0:50Speaker 6: Okay, So I just quit my teacher jobs. I'm gonna
- 0:55Speaker 6: try not surprise. It was something really hard to need
- 0:59Speaker 6: to give up and everything after six years and I'm
- 1:02Speaker 6: scared right now because I have no idea what I'm
- 1:06Speaker 6: supposed to do or anything like that. And I just
- 1:09Speaker 6: turned twenty eight, and I feel like I'm failing at life.
- 1:13Speaker 6: So I need some advice.
- 1:14Speaker 4: You are not failing at life, man. You know.
- 1:16Speaker 1: One of my affirmations this morning was embraced everything that
- 1:20Speaker 1: happens to you. And you know, being that you twenty eight,
- 1:22Speaker 1: you'll realize this as you get older. Everything is just
- 1:25Speaker 1: part of a process. You got to trust your instincts.
- 1:27Speaker 1: Your instincts told you that you didn't want to teach
- 1:28Speaker 1: no more right right.
- 1:30Speaker 6: Like I'm mental helping passing, so that like I was
- 1:33Speaker 6: having panic attacks and everything is just seeking is not
- 1:37Speaker 6: what it used to be at all. And so I
- 1:41Speaker 6: love the kids, used to love the profession, but I
- 1:44Speaker 6: just felt so undervalued and unappreciated, like it was just
- 1:49Speaker 6: it was hard. So right now up because I'm about
- 1:52Speaker 6: to go intocart and hopefully out make a little something.
- 1:55Speaker 6: Still I figured out.
- 1:57Speaker 7: So.
- 2:00Speaker 4: You should do.
- 2:00Speaker 1: My mom is a public school teacher. I was a
- 2:02Speaker 1: public school teacher, so I understand. I think that y'all
- 2:04Speaker 1: are very underpaid, undervalued, and underappreciated.
- 2:07Speaker 4: So thank you for your service as a teacher.
- 2:09Speaker 1: But now you just got to pray and see what
- 2:10Speaker 1: God is going to lead you next, because he's God
- 2:13Speaker 1: is definitely telling you that you should be doing something else.
- 2:16Speaker 4: You just got it.
- 2:17Speaker 1: You probably already know what it is. You're probably just
- 2:18Speaker 1: scared to do it right now.
- 2:20Speaker 4: All right, Yeah, you already know what it is, don't you.
- 2:23Speaker 6: You said, what can't put my cash up out there?
- 2:28Speaker 4: That's not what that is not that is not without God. God.
- 2:36Speaker 1: For you tell me what eut God is telling you
- 2:37Speaker 1: to do before we get to the cash app to.
- 2:41Speaker 8: Honestly, I'm up.
- 2:43Speaker 6: So that's all I got at the moment.

- 6:51Speaker 4: say this all the.
- 6:52Speaker 3: Time because when we announced that your album came out,
- 6:54Speaker 3: he didn't even know your album came out. And I
- 6:56Speaker 3: forced him a true byecause that is not.
- 7:00Speaker 4: True, and we played the song. I played the Missy.
- 7:05Speaker 3: Record and Chris Brown record that morning, but I had
- 7:09Speaker 3: to make him download the rectless.
- 7:10Speaker 4: He didn't even know. That's not true. I don't know now,
- 7:12Speaker 4: that's right.
- 7:12Speaker 3: You said you bought it, right, we don't download, but
- 7:15Speaker 3: you said you bought it.
- 7:16Speaker 4: Listen in pieces out right now, Okay, did you buy
- 7:19Speaker 4: it all right?
- 7:19Speaker 1: Did all your people's online complaining making noise by it?
- 7:23Speaker 4: I stream it? Okay?
- 7:26Speaker 5: I feel great. I'm so happy. Like the past two days,
- 7:29Speaker 5: I've been feeling like great, to be honest, the week
- 7:32Speaker 5: and a half, like before, it was like a little rocky,
- 7:34Speaker 5: but tour kind of been getting me out the funk
- 7:37Speaker 5: because the shows have been amazing. They've all been sold
- 7:39Speaker 5: out and everyone's singing every lyric to every song, So
- 7:42Speaker 5: I'm like the love is real and real life so
- 7:45Speaker 5: I've been feeling good.
- 7:46Speaker 4: Why were you in a funk? I know you wasn't
- 7:47Speaker 4: letting these digital kids on the internet.
- 7:50Speaker 5: I mean like you're like, we're all human, so of
- 7:52Speaker 5: course some things are going to bother you. And I
- 7:54Speaker 5: think when you put so much time and effort into
- 7:58Speaker 5: the art of everything. And it's really a concept album.
- 8:00Speaker 5: My executive produced it. I produced on twelve out of
- 8:03Speaker 5: the fourteen songs on there. I had a lot of incredible,
- 8:06Speaker 5: amazing talent on the project. So I was just like,
- 8:09Speaker 5: it's okay, come at me, bro, So I'm ready for
- 8:12Speaker 5: what's next, to be honest.
- 8:13Speaker 4: What's the title mean? In Pieces?
- 8:14Speaker 5: Yes, so in Pieces it's kind of like a double entendre.
- 8:17Speaker 5: So in Pieces represents the pieces of my heart that
- 8:21Speaker 5: has been left broken from life situations, relationships, things like
- 8:25Speaker 5: that people seven you in the back. And then it
- 8:27Speaker 5: also means what's left in Pieces is the box that
- 8:29Speaker 5: people try to put me in on who they think
- 8:32Speaker 5: Chloe is, and you know, I just have to speak
- 8:35Speaker 5: for myself and break through it. That's what it means.
- 8:37Speaker 5: It's like the simp side and then the place of
- 8:39Speaker 5: powers has to be difficult.
- 8:41Speaker 4: Yeah, because people seeing you grow up.
- 8:43Speaker 3: So it's like you've seen you as this young girl,
- 8:45Speaker 3: so now when you break it out into.
- 8:46Speaker 4: Your own, it has to be difficult for your fans.
- 8:49Speaker 13: I guess right, maybe maybe not.
- 8:51Speaker 5: I'm really proud of my sister and I because we've
- 8:54Speaker 5: been branching out on our own successfully and people are
- 8:57Speaker 5: getting to like know who.
- 8:58Speaker 10: We are individually.
- 8:59Speaker 5: And I'm I'm so blessed that I grew up with
- 9:01Speaker 5: her in life so we could go through everything together,
- 9:05Speaker 5: and it came to a point where we were so
- 9:06Speaker 5: dependent on one another, like we were Siamese twins. So
- 9:09Speaker 5: what forced us apart was her going to London to
- 9:12Speaker 5: shoot Little Mermaid and you know, me being in la
- 9:14Speaker 5: and especially with the pandemic, the travel restrictions going to
- 9:17Speaker 5: another country was crazy. So as stressful as it was
- 9:20Speaker 5: for the both of us, we both had separation anxiety.
- 9:22Speaker 5: It like forced us to figure out, Okay, who's Chloe,
- 9:25Speaker 5: who's Holly. So now when we come back together, it's
- 9:28Speaker 5: going to be even stronger because now we also have
- 9:31Speaker 5: a great sense of self.
- 9:32Speaker 4: Did y'all recognize the growth in each other?
- 9:34Speaker 1: You and Holly, Like when y'all finally did get back together,
- 9:36Speaker 1: did she see growth in you?
- 9:37Speaker 4: Did you see growth? Friend?
- 9:38Speaker 5: Yes, the crazy thing is growing up. It was me
- 9:41Speaker 5: who was afraid to speak up, so like she would
- 9:43Speaker 5: be the one speaking up for me and like she's
- 9:45Speaker 5: the aries. Yes, she's the like, don't mess with her,
- 9:49Speaker 5: and it would always be me like, oh my gosh,
- 9:51Speaker 5: I like I don't like confrontation things like that. And
- 9:54Speaker 5: so because of that, I had to force myself to
- 9:57Speaker 5: speak up for myself because I didn't have my right
- 10:00Speaker 5: there doing it for me. So now I'm very independent
- 10:04Speaker 5: and very vocal and I say what I mean and
- 10:08Speaker 5: I mean what I say, and she's recognized that. She's like, well,
- 10:11Speaker 5: you're like a completely different person. I'm so proud of
- 10:14Speaker 5: her because she's confident in who she is as an
- 10:16Speaker 5: individual as well. Like we both were missing that and
- 10:19Speaker 5: now we both found it. So it's like we're stronger.
- 10:21Speaker 3: Did that change because you missed your sister? Was it
- 10:24Speaker 3: a relationship that made you change? It was writ in
- 10:25Speaker 3: your music that made you shakee? What was that change?
- 10:28Speaker 5: That's a great question. I think it was a combination
- 10:31Speaker 5: of everything. I think it got to a point where
- 10:33Speaker 5: I realized, if I don't fight for myself, then I'm
- 10:36Speaker 5: just going to be left in the dust. And if
- 10:38Speaker 5: I don't speak up for what I want and speak
- 10:40Speaker 5: up for who I am as a human being, then
- 10:43Speaker 5: like it's just going to fall on deaf ears and
- 10:45Speaker 5: clothes mouths don't get fed. So you know, throughout the music,
- 10:48Speaker 5: I was finding my strength because I was saying things
- 10:50Speaker 5: that I was afraid to say or speak up to
- 10:52Speaker 5: certain individuals. And then from there it just grew. From that,
- 10:56Speaker 5: it was like it just kept growing and growing, and
- 10:59Speaker 5: now it can't really stop.
- 11:00Speaker 11: I feel like, growing up as women were taught to
- 11:03Speaker 11: like not be so vocal. So now that you are
- 11:05Speaker 11: being vocal, do you feel like.
- 11:07Speaker 8: You're being a like?
- 11:08Speaker 11: Do you feel like like you have to turn on
- 11:10Speaker 11: a new version of yourself?
- 11:11Speaker 5: Absolutely not. There's it's not about what you say, but
- 11:14Speaker 5: how you say it. You can command a room without
- 11:16Speaker 5: having to bark so loud, and as long as you
- 11:19Speaker 5: believe in what you're saying and you don't change in
- 11:23Speaker 5: that for anybody, people will respect you.
- 11:25Speaker 4: Was was pray Away based on a true story?
- 11:28Speaker 5: Yes, So I wrote that song with my girl Jossy,
- 11:30Speaker 5: and I kept seeing her like three four times that
- 11:33Speaker 5: week at every event and I'm all about signs, like
- 11:36Speaker 5: I don't feel there are any coincidences in life. And
- 11:38Speaker 5: I was like, so the final place I.
- 11:40Speaker 4: Saw her, now it's gonna following.
- 11:46Speaker 13: Signed that's you're crazy.
- 11:48Speaker 10: But I was like okay.
- 11:49Speaker 5: So we passed each other going to the ladies room
- 11:52Speaker 5: at the studio and I was like, I got back
- 11:54Speaker 5: in my session, I said, So I texted her. I
- 11:56Speaker 5: was like, can you come in here? And she played
- 11:57Speaker 5: me a few demos and it was the skeleton of
- 11:59Speaker 5: Pray Away. It was originally called Church. I was like,
- 12:02Speaker 5: I'm in love with this because I loved how open
- 12:04Speaker 5: it was. It was completely raw and honest, and for me,
- 12:08Speaker 5: I've always learned to just be the bigger person and
- 12:11Speaker 5: turn the other cheek. And it's like sometimes you do
- 12:14Speaker 5: want to get down and dirty and get on that
- 12:16Speaker 5: person same level, but I will never give anyone that
- 12:19Speaker 5: power over me. So it's like, you know, I'm ana
- 12:21Speaker 5: pray it away. So it was quite easy to finish
- 12:23Speaker 5: out the song because there has been people who have
- 12:25Speaker 5: tried me and I love it. I really did.
- 12:29Speaker 1: When the last time you really wanted a person hurt,
- 12:31Speaker 1: because that's what the song is, That's what the song
- 12:33Speaker 1: is about you having to pray it away.
- 12:36Speaker 5: I think the last time I felt like I wanted
- 12:37Speaker 5: somebody to hurt five days ago.
- 12:40Speaker 4: Yeah, five days?
- 12:45Speaker 13: How long?
- 12:47Speaker 10: Yeah?
- 12:48Speaker 11: You need hurt though you don't really mean hurt. You
- 12:50Speaker 11: just mean like you want them to feel how you feel.
- 12:52Speaker 5: Yes, okay, like, But the thing is we never have
- 12:54Speaker 5: to do the work like karma speaks for itself. It's true,
- 12:57Speaker 5: you know, so never give someone power to get you
- 13:01Speaker 5: out of your characters.
- 13:01Speaker 11: But you've never been like or you don't believe in
- 13:04Speaker 11: like Fike, like I got to get my get back.
- 13:06Speaker 5: I don't because I don't want it to come back
- 13:08Speaker 5: to me in turn. So I just let them dig
- 13:11Speaker 5: themselves in the ditch.
- 13:12Speaker 3: How we got more with Chloe Bailey when we come back,
- 13:14Speaker 3: don't move.
- 13:15Speaker 4: It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club.
- 13:21Speaker 3: Everybody's the ej n V. Charlamage God, we are the
- 13:24Speaker 3: breakfast Club. We have not listen on here.
- 13:26Speaker 4: We're still kicking it with Chloe Bailey.
- 13:28Speaker 11: So you talked about stepping into your sexuality on the album,
- 13:31Speaker 11: and obviously we've been seeing it in the music.
- 13:33Speaker 8: Videos and stuff like that.
- 13:34Speaker 11: But swarm that clip that was trending on Twitter. People
- 13:38Speaker 11: were making it sound like I'm getting clos like did
- 13:40Speaker 11: you see did you see it? I'm like, what, I guess.
- 13:42Speaker 11: I go look at it and then I look and
- 13:44Speaker 11: I'm like, it's really not that.
- 13:45Speaker 5: It's two seconds. Yeah, it's really not that.
- 13:47Speaker 4: Yeah, Christ for a fall, but that's like ten minutes.
- 13:51Speaker 1: Okay, So this man, y'all don't ever think about us,
- 13:56Speaker 1: know right, never think about us, because God has good
- 14:00Speaker 1: lessons are flowing.
- 14:01Speaker 5: I'm an actress as well. What I love about acting
- 14:03Speaker 5: is that I'm not Chloe whenever I'm playing that certain
- 14:06Speaker 5: character and shout out to Donald Glover, Jenny Nighbors, Dominique
- 14:10Speaker 5: Fishback and Damson like we had the best time. And
- 14:13Speaker 5: when I was shooting on that set, I fell more
- 14:14Speaker 5: in love with acting. I barely wore makeup. Everything was
- 14:17Speaker 5: shot on film and music. You win and thrive off
- 14:21Speaker 5: of being this image of perfection or whatnot. Like you
- 14:25Speaker 5: get clown for messing up or tripping or falling on
- 14:27Speaker 5: stage or looking a hot mess on the carpet. But
- 14:30Speaker 5: with acting, that's where the beauty is, with all of
- 14:34Speaker 5: the flaws and you know, the imperfections and things like that.
- 14:37Speaker 5: So I fell in love with the script. Now I
- 14:40Speaker 5: totally like, didn't even connect. Oh I have to do
- 14:42Speaker 5: a sex scene. I've never done a sex scene before,
- 14:45Speaker 5: and I was like, okay, well, I'm not the focus
- 14:47Speaker 5: of the scene. It's really about the shock value of
- 14:50Speaker 5: Dre and Khalid watching each other and like you see
- 14:53Speaker 5: the obsession between the sister's form at the beginning, like.
- 14:57Speaker 8: It awkward shooting.
- 14:58Speaker 5: No, you see me for two secon in the mirror
- 15:00Speaker 5: and and you did not see you did not even
- 15:03Speaker 5: see crack.
- 15:04Speaker 8: You saw everything.
- 15:06Speaker 5: You saw everything that you see from me on stage, Like,
- 15:09Speaker 5: let's keep it real.
- 15:10Speaker 3: Did you have to call like when you told your dad,
- 15:12Speaker 3: Hey dad, this is the scene or you know what?
- 15:15Speaker 3: How was that conversation? The dad's still gonna be a
- 15:18Speaker 3: dad my daughter's and I don't care for sure.
- 15:21Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 15:21Speaker 5: I feel like dads will always look at their little
- 15:23Speaker 5: girls like they're still little, and that's totally fine. I
- 15:27Speaker 5: one thing I will say about my parents is that
- 15:29Speaker 5: they know this is our job.
- 15:31Speaker 4: And so what was it called you called that? Hey dad,
- 15:33Speaker 4: Hi baby, how you feeling shooting? Did you shoot? Go?
- 15:36Speaker 5: Okay, So it wasn't about the shoot, it was about
- 15:38Speaker 5: when I first got it, and you know when the
- 15:41Speaker 5: agents will call and be like congrats, da dada da.
- 15:44Speaker 5: And after I got it, I think my dad read
- 15:46Speaker 5: the script and he's like, oh okay, He's like, yeah,
- 15:49Speaker 5: he deleted Twitter. No, it was just me. I had
- 15:55Speaker 5: to hop on a flight right after I.
- 15:57Speaker 1: Met you the in and that doesn't realize how much
- 15:59Speaker 1: more money they make you because a two second scene.
- 16:02Speaker 4: Cause them to lose their mind.
- 16:04Speaker 1: Like that, all that's gonna make other people say is, oh,
- 16:06Speaker 1: we gotta get clothe in on movie.
- 16:07Speaker 4: We gotta get cloth is got to get Cloe endorsement deal.
- 16:11Speaker 11: I like how you're said, she said, it's working. When
- 16:16Speaker 11: you say, like acting, you can be imperfect and the
- 16:20Speaker 11: music has to be perfect, why can't you bring the
- 16:22Speaker 11: imperfections to.
- 16:23Speaker 12: The music because I think.
- 16:24Speaker 11: Like like with dope about Cardi b is that you
- 16:26Speaker 11: can hear she's from the Bronx, you know what I mean,
- 16:28Speaker 11: and like the spanglish she uses sometimes like why can't.
- 16:31Speaker 12: It be both?
- 16:32Speaker 5: Well, I do do both, but that's what people ridicule
- 16:34Speaker 5: me for being imperfect, not being the type of image
- 16:39Speaker 5: they want me to be. People say they want certain
- 16:41Speaker 5: things and then when you do it. That's what they
- 16:43Speaker 5: used to pick on you.
- 16:44Speaker 1: The weirdest thing is when people say things like, she
- 16:46Speaker 1: don't know who she is, she's not being herself.
- 16:48Speaker 4: You don't know her, thank you, you don't even know her.
- 16:51Speaker 5: I'm sure they'd like me if they meet me. I'm
- 16:53Speaker 5: a really nice person.
- 16:56Speaker 4: I wanted to ask, you want to sold out tour?
- 16:58Speaker 8: Yeah?
- 16:59Speaker 3: Does that mean that you're not going to be a
- 17:01Speaker 3: special guest or that you are going to be a
- 17:03Speaker 3: special guest on somebody else's store coming up?
- 17:05Speaker 5: Well, I'm definitely. I'm definitely going to see the show
- 17:09Speaker 5: for sure. And it's been exciting, like seeing what I've
- 17:13Speaker 5: been doing for myself. Like I've never headlined a solo
- 17:17Speaker 5: tour ever SIS and I never got to do it
- 17:20Speaker 5: for On Godly Hour because we were in the midst
- 17:21Speaker 5: of a pandemic. So I really didn't know what to
- 17:24Speaker 5: expect going into it. Like when I announced it, even
- 17:26Speaker 5: before the album dropped, I was a little nervous, like
- 17:28Speaker 5: if people want to come things like that every night,
- 17:31Speaker 5: I'm like telling my god, MoMA, my team, I'm like,
- 17:33Speaker 5: what do you see out there? Like people out there?
- 17:35Speaker 5: Like for some reason, it doesn't click that people are
- 17:37Speaker 5: there to see me correct and it's sold out. And
- 17:40Speaker 5: I think when you're constantly used to people telling you otherwise,
- 17:44Speaker 5: a part of you, as much as you don't want
- 17:45Speaker 5: to begins to believe it. But then when I step
- 17:48Speaker 5: out on that stage and I see it and I
- 17:51Speaker 5: hear it, it's not like people are just watching me
- 17:53Speaker 5: being quiet, like they're singing the words back to me.
- 17:56Speaker 5: They're giving me that energy and that love. You can't
- 17:58Speaker 5: fake that. You can't that and and make up numbers.
- 18:02Speaker 5: You can't do that with that. That's real. So as
- 18:05Speaker 5: long as I'm connecting with the ones who love me
- 18:07Speaker 5: and I'm doing what makes me happy, that's really all
- 18:10Speaker 5: that matters.
- 18:11Speaker 1: It's also okay to have your people say, don't ask
- 18:12Speaker 1: me no Beyonce questions. I love Beyonce when I'm my
- 18:15Speaker 1: own inthathy right, because I mean, I'm sure Kelly Michelle,
- 18:18Speaker 1: everybody's gone through that.
- 18:19Speaker 4: That is stitoding next to that great person who called Beyonce.
- 18:22Speaker 14: Okay, yeah, I mean she is Beyonce.
- 18:26Speaker 5: Everybody wants to know about her. So I'm just like cool,
- 18:28Speaker 5: like I don't really look much into it.
- 18:31Speaker 4: Are you gonna be opened up for her?
- 18:36Speaker 5: About my family.
- 18:41Speaker 4: Let's practice. Are you gonna be opening up for Beyonce?
- 18:43Speaker 5: I plead the fifth No, they don't okay, okay, no, no,
- 18:48Speaker 5: no, no no. I'm nice okay and you're my family now
- 18:53Speaker 5: I do cuss.
- 18:54Speaker 4: Are you gonna be opening up for Beyonce?
- 18:55Speaker 15: I don't know, no question everywhere now with.
- 19:06Speaker 3: All the critique you get from being by the Way guy,
- 19:08Speaker 3: she said she didn't know. She didn't say no, she said,
- 19:10Speaker 3: she says, says we heard.
- 19:12Speaker 1: If all the critique you get from being a music artist,
- 19:14Speaker 1: does it make you just want to stay in acting
- 19:15Speaker 1: because of because of the freedom that you're getting acting.
- 19:18Speaker 5: That's a really great question. In this past week, that
- 19:21Speaker 5: crossed my mind a few times, and I got over
- 19:24Speaker 5: it like two three days ago. Really yeah, And I
- 19:28Speaker 5: was like, when people make you doubt, and especially as creatives,
- 19:31Speaker 5: we already doubt everything we do, so you begin to
- 19:34Speaker 5: think like, oh, well, maybe this isn't for me, But
- 19:37Speaker 5: then I would be going against the exact reason why
- 19:40Speaker 5: God put me here, So why like pray it away,
- 19:45Speaker 5: never lessen yourself to please somebody else, And that's in everything.
- 19:51Speaker 4: Chloe Bailey, Ladies and gentlemen, thank you. For joining.
- 19:53Speaker 12: Thank you, guys, I love you always.

- 20:19Speaker 12: Thank you you heard it.
- 20:21Speaker 4: Yes, absolutely, they gave it to you.
- 20:23Speaker 16: I feel it's such a vulnerable feeling when people would
- 20:27Speaker 16: like have it now, it's like not real, but this
- 20:31Speaker 16: is all the dream.
- 20:32Speaker 4: Well, congrats, thank you.
- 20:34Speaker 3: So I heard it was your mom that actually got
- 20:36Speaker 3: you to link back up with doctor dream.
- 20:38Speaker 15: No.
- 20:38Speaker 16: What she did, in true Scouser fashion, the liver Puddlian
- 20:42Speaker 16: that she is, she hit me up and said.
- 20:44Speaker 4: Word, we have no idea.
- 20:45Speaker 16: Scousa means you were born and raised in Liverpool, liver Puddlian. Right,
- 20:50Speaker 16: So I'm born Liverpool, born and raised. So my mom
- 20:53Speaker 16: calls me. Me, mom calls me and says, oh, Marsha, have.
- 20:57Speaker 12: You spoke to her, ma'am doctor Drake.
- 20:59Speaker 16: I don't even think she referred to him as doctor Dre.
- 21:01Speaker 16: She just said Dre like I was supposed to know
- 21:03Speaker 16: who that was. And I'm like, no, mam, I haven't.
- 21:05Speaker 12: Spoke to Dre lately. And I was like, all right,
- 21:07Speaker 12: I'll call them up.
- 21:08Speaker 16: So this is around about the end of twenty twenty December,
- 21:12Speaker 16: so I give him a call, say what's up. We reconnect.
- 21:16Speaker 16: It's like, I'm working on a couple of things. I'll
- 21:17Speaker 16: send you a.
- 21:18Speaker 12: Couple of ideas.
- 21:19Speaker 16: So we started shooting ideas back and forth what would
- 21:22Speaker 16: then be the GTA video game. But I didn't know
- 21:25Speaker 16: that that's what was being worked on. You know, Dre's
- 21:27Speaker 16: just like, let's just work. You never know what's going
- 21:29Speaker 16: to happen. So we're going back and forth and a
- 21:33Speaker 16: couple of weeks go by, and the top of twenty
- 21:36Speaker 16: twenty one he had a brain aneurysm and I was
- 21:40Speaker 16: on the treadmill when I found that out, like looked
- 21:41Speaker 16: at my phone and you know, it popped up whatever
- 21:44Speaker 16: news outlet, and it was like what I just talked
- 21:47Speaker 16: to him, like less than twenty four hours ago and
- 21:50Speaker 16: made all the calls, found out everything was okay and stable.
- 21:54Speaker 16: Twenty four hours after that, he called me said, look, Marsha,
- 21:58Speaker 16: I'm call I'm in recovery, but I want to get
- 22:00Speaker 16: back to work. So I want to get you out
- 22:02Speaker 16: to LA and let's just figure some things out.
- 22:05Speaker 4: So he in a hospital bed calling you, like, look,
- 22:07Speaker 4: we got to get back to work.
- 22:08Speaker 12: All I know was like plugged up, plugged on the
- 22:11Speaker 12: way back. I said, okay, doctor Dre, whatever you say.
- 22:14Speaker 16: And within a couple of weeks, I was in La
- 22:18Speaker 16: most of that year twenty twenty one, and the creation
- 22:21Speaker 16: of Casablanco happened a couple of months after that, so
- 22:25Speaker 16: it was really all the GTA stuff. And then I
- 22:27Speaker 16: told Dre that I was overdoing this artist thing. Nyla's
- 22:32Speaker 16: mothers now and I just want to chill, Like I
- 22:35Speaker 16: just want to produce some rite. I've never been a
- 22:38Speaker 16: pick may I want to be in front of the
- 22:39Speaker 16: cap No. I was done, and he said, yeah, nah.
- 22:43Speaker 4: Are you done with music? Yeah? Really yeah?
- 22:47Speaker 16: Being an artist like I was always going to create,
- 22:49Speaker 16: but the whole being the artist thing, I was like,
- 22:51Speaker 16: I've done everything that I could possibly do on this
- 22:55Speaker 16: bucket list that I tried to create for myself.
- 22:57Speaker 12: I've surpassed my bucket list.
- 23:00Speaker 4: It was on the bucket list.
- 23:01Speaker 16: I'm just curious, get signed, win a Grammy, lose some Grammys.
- 23:05Speaker 12: I don't know, like work with my favorite.
- 23:08Speaker 16: Artists, like regular stuff, but my actual things.
- 23:11Speaker 12: I didn't write, oh.
- 23:13Speaker 16: Work with Michael Jackson, work with Prince, work with Stevie,
- 23:16Speaker 16: work with Doctor Dray. I didn't write those things out loud,
- 23:19Speaker 16: but I wanted those things and it achieved that. By now,
- 23:23Speaker 16: this is twenty four years in for me, so I'm like, ah,
- 23:26Speaker 16: what's next.
- 23:27Speaker 12: I'm on my Quincy Jones mission.
- 23:28Speaker 1: I like the pedestal you put hip hop on on
- 23:31Speaker 1: this album because just musically, it just shows how much
- 23:34Speaker 1: of a classic musical art form hip hop is. The
- 23:37Speaker 1: fact you can go from a that Tanisian records like
- 23:39Speaker 1: from the forties, right Yeah, In fact, you can go
- 23:42Speaker 1: from nat to Nah.
- 23:43Speaker 12: The nineties and it blends per seamlessly.
- 23:47Speaker 16: It doesn't a lot of things that we did on
- 23:49Speaker 16: this album shouldn't make sense. Like I truly believe we
- 23:53Speaker 16: will be in the Guinness Book of World Records for
- 23:56Speaker 16: how many things we sampled and the way that we sampled,
- 24:00Speaker 16: So no will Tang, Duke Kellington and Michael Jackson aren't
- 24:05Speaker 16: supposed to fuse, but on thrill Her they did, you know,
- 24:09Speaker 16: So it's yeah, it was a wild ride, but one
- 24:12Speaker 16: of the most amazing experiences I've ever had, not only
- 24:16Speaker 16: recording it, just the entire process even getting to this point,
- 24:20Speaker 16: even it taken so long to get a release date
- 24:22Speaker 16: for it to be available, like the entire.
- 24:25Speaker 12: Thing has just been No one's done this before.
- 24:27Speaker 3: You talk about inspiration right in Charlotma say how you
- 24:30Speaker 3: inspired so many people, But you must have inspired Doctor
- 24:32Speaker 3: dre as well, because we haven't heard music from Doctor Drake.
- 24:35Speaker 3: We haven't seen him executive produce things. We've only heard
- 24:38Speaker 3: rumors and like it's almost like a teathing.
- 24:40Speaker 4: Ever comes out. You hear Doctor Dress that could produce
- 24:43Speaker 4: such and such album, but you never hear this.
- 24:44Speaker 16: He recently said this in a bit in a in
- 24:47Speaker 16: an interview. He recently did and said, and I absolutely
- 24:51Speaker 16: believe this. He may have only released five percent of
- 24:55Speaker 16: the music that he's ever recorded. Wow, and now working
- 24:58Speaker 16: with him as extensive I did during the pandemic. It's
- 25:03Speaker 16: absolutely true. And he doesn't do it purposefully. It's because
- 25:07Speaker 16: he loves the creative process. And it's like, no, this
- 25:10Speaker 16: is just for us, this is ours.
- 25:12Speaker 4: What did you do? How did you? How are you
- 25:13Speaker 4: one of a few people? Did you ever think it happen?
- 25:17Speaker 16: I'm I'm the only only There's not one person before
- 25:22Speaker 16: or after. I don't even think this happens again that
- 25:25Speaker 16: has an entire project solely produced and mixed by doctor Dre.
- 25:31Speaker 12: How did I do it? Not clear? But I know
- 25:36Speaker 12: that I did it.
- 25:37Speaker 16: I know that this is something that he'd never done,
- 25:40Speaker 16: and I feel like that that was the driving force
- 25:42Speaker 16: for it to be something new. He could have just
- 25:44Speaker 16: died a hip hop breakord, it could have just been
- 25:47Speaker 16: a soul armed.
- 25:48Speaker 12: It's none of those things.
- 25:50Speaker 16: It's something so specific, so different, but so familiar, And
- 25:56Speaker 16: I feel like we were both going through a similar
- 25:59Speaker 16: situation and it was he had health scare, I hada healthscare.
- 26:02Speaker 16: The pandemic is happening. It felt like the end of
- 26:04Speaker 16: the Earth during that time, so it felt desperate in
- 26:08Speaker 16: a way. It felt if we don't do this and
- 26:11Speaker 16: this world ends tomorrow, what's the mark that we actually
- 26:13Speaker 16: leave on planet Earth? And musically, like you said, I've
- 26:17Speaker 16: done things that you know, a Marsha Ambrosius album is
- 26:20Speaker 16: this specific thing.
- 26:22Speaker 12: If I had to.
- 26:22Speaker 16: Leave it all on the floor and put up my
- 26:25Speaker 16: triple double and win a chip, that's this album. If
- 26:28Speaker 16: it was all said and done, like okay, apocalyptic world
- 26:32Speaker 16: that we're now in because of the pandemic and many
- 26:35Speaker 16: other things, it was that it was out of desperation
- 26:38Speaker 16: and feeling like I could have lost my life, Drake
- 26:41Speaker 16: could have lost his.
- 26:42Speaker 12: We didn't.
- 26:43Speaker 16: We survived these things. We're now post COVID. How do
- 26:47Speaker 16: we navigate through this? And what does that sound like?
- 26:50Speaker 16: And that's why and how this happens. So yeah, Dre
- 26:53Speaker 16: being inspired by me, I'm inspired by him.
- 26:56Speaker 12: It just took off.
- 26:57Speaker 4: That was what the title means.
- 26:59Speaker 16: So casabland I initially within a week of recording what
- 27:03Speaker 16: we knew this was going to be After Tunisian Nights,
- 27:07Speaker 16: he threw out some album titles, a couple of which
- 27:10Speaker 16: were things like I sing or I sing More. And
- 27:14Speaker 16: I was like, Drake, we need an actual title, like
- 27:17Speaker 16: what is this? It was like, I mean, you're saying
- 27:19Speaker 16: what is it? So I'm like that Drake, these to
- 27:22Speaker 16: be a title, like what is this?
- 27:23Speaker 12: Thing.
- 27:24Speaker 16: So I was in a spoiled circumstance where I'm driving
- 27:28Speaker 16: through the Beverly Hills, like just Hollywood Hills every day
- 27:33Speaker 16: to the destination to record, and it felt very vintage Hollywood,
- 27:39Speaker 16: like the lights, the Lembs. It was glitz, glamour, red carpets,
- 27:43Speaker 16: the whole nine. And I felt underdressed for the studio
- 27:46Speaker 16: every time I got there based on what we were creating.
- 27:49Speaker 12: And so it was strings.
- 27:50Speaker 16: It was a symphony, but it painted these pictures and
- 27:54Speaker 16: I was like, no, it feels like a place. It
- 27:56Speaker 16: feels like Casablanca, and it was like, mm okay, at Casablanca,
- 28:01Speaker 16: it's a but nah, it's that Drake. So it's a
- 28:03Speaker 16: little bit more gangster than that, like Casa Blanco, Griselda Blanco.
- 28:09Speaker 12: So the fusion of that.
- 28:11Speaker 16: Very vintage jazz Hollywood feel meets hip hop is how
- 28:16Speaker 16: Casa Blanco became what it was, what it.
- 28:19Speaker 3: Is, how we got more with Marsha Ambrose's when we
- 28:21Speaker 3: come back, it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning morning everybody.
- 28:24Speaker 3: It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamage, the guy we are.
- 28:27Speaker 3: The Breakfast Club's still kicking with Marsha Ambrosis Charlamagne.
- 28:31Speaker 4: And all you make.
- 28:31Speaker 1: It feels like it's soundtracks to make love to, of course,
- 28:34Speaker 1: like nothing more, nothing less?
- 28:36Speaker 4: Why is that?
- 28:37Speaker 12: I have no clue. It's just in me.
- 28:40Speaker 16: It's ridiculous, Like I've had this. Well, a friend of
- 28:43Speaker 16: mine recently was like.
- 28:44Speaker 12: How do you even come up with another one? Why not?
- 28:49Speaker 16: Even in a place of desperation, and even in a
- 28:51Speaker 16: place of the world was over, I still find a
- 28:55Speaker 16: song to make love too. It's a gift, and that's
- 29:00Speaker 16: it's a gift.
- 29:01Speaker 4: One night stand music. Too good to have a one
- 29:04Speaker 4: night stand too?
- 29:05Speaker 12: Well, that was the point. My one night stand is
- 29:08Speaker 12: now ten.
- 29:08Speaker 4: Years long, okay.
- 29:11Speaker 16: And I'm saying so I definitely leant from other experiences
- 29:16Speaker 16: and wild drunk nights over the course of you know,
- 29:20Speaker 16: Grammy open Bar. You know, it gets very ridiculous. So yeah,
- 29:24Speaker 16: those one night they're a part of that song too.
- 29:27Speaker 16: But ultimately it's that one night that could be your forever.
- 29:31Speaker 4: A bunch of people that'll be like you shouldn't have
- 29:33Speaker 4: one night stand?
- 29:34Speaker 12: Why not?
- 29:34Speaker 4: Exactly?
- 29:35Speaker 16: I don't know where it's going to go. Like everything
- 29:37Speaker 16: is a one night stand if you think about it.
- 29:40Speaker 12: So we've all done it. It's whether or not it
- 29:42Speaker 12: lasted or it didn't.
- 29:43Speaker 16: But you shouldn't be Oh, I'd never do that if
- 29:46Speaker 16: I didn't do it ten years later in a seven
- 29:48Speaker 16: year old, maybe that doesn't happen if I don't just
- 29:51Speaker 16: you know what I mean, Like if I don't say, hey.
- 29:53Speaker 3: I want to ask. So I want to go back
- 29:54Speaker 3: to what you said. You said the health scare and
- 29:56Speaker 3: your child, how did that change your life with the
- 30:00Speaker 3: okare you child? Because I guess if the babies what
- 30:02Speaker 3: six seven years old happened right before COVID, so you
- 30:04Speaker 3: pretty much raised the baby during COVID.
- 30:07Speaker 12: It's just COVID babies are different.
- 30:09Speaker 16: It's ridiculous, Like, but for me, how it all changed,
- 30:14Speaker 16: It changed all of us, you know, being in a
- 30:18Speaker 16: dark place.
- 30:19Speaker 12: I don't think there's anything that could bring you out
- 30:21Speaker 12: of that.
- 30:22Speaker 16: And that was terrifying during the pandemic. And I'm pretty
- 30:25Speaker 16: sure for anybody where you're like, not even your kid
- 30:28Speaker 16: could bring you. No, my mother, my father, my brother,
- 30:31Speaker 16: like close friends. This is what Casablanco ended up being.
- 30:37Speaker 16: I didn't think i'd see this moment at one point.
- 30:40Speaker 16: So to get here and to be happy and to
- 30:43Speaker 16: be in a space that I'm in.
- 30:45Speaker 4: It's just wow, wow is that with the song? I
- 30:48Speaker 4: guess self care wrong right might come.
- 30:50Speaker 12: But even that is a song to make love to.
- 30:53Speaker 4: Yeah, what's the wrong right part of it?
- 30:55Speaker 14: Though?
- 30:55Speaker 4: Like, well that mean who's wrong? Self care?
- 30:57Speaker 16: Wrong right was initially those were two songs, and the
- 31:01Speaker 16: self care was I needed to do me figure tip
- 31:05Speaker 16: you literally, so by the time we got to wrong right,
- 31:09Speaker 16: it's me inviting that person then into my space and
- 31:13Speaker 16: it's given me good like you so hood like please
- 31:17Speaker 16: don't go.
- 31:18Speaker 12: It's that you're so.
- 31:19Speaker 16: Wrong right now for even trying to let me let
- 31:23Speaker 16: my guard down. Because I was so cool with just
- 31:26Speaker 16: letting me do me and then here comes this m
- 31:31Speaker 16: this ugh, this fine dark chocolate swept me off my
- 31:36Speaker 16: feet and let me put my guard down. And I'm
- 31:39Speaker 16: a leo and that's hard for me to do. So
- 31:42Speaker 16: when it happens, it's both terrifying. But the fear in
- 31:46Speaker 16: a lioness comes out in aggression and anger and.
- 31:49Speaker 12: A lot of sexual appetite.
- 31:53Speaker 16: That is anyone that knows, that knows, And yeah, that
- 31:57Speaker 16: was that you're so wrong right now?
- 31:59Speaker 4: What did y'all meet? What do you whed you meet?
- 32:00Speaker 4: Your husband on tour on tour, Yes, how did that
- 32:03Speaker 4: go down?
- 32:04Speaker 3: Because when you're talking about him, you just you started
- 32:06Speaker 3: mouth starts salamat and you just start getting together.
- 32:10Speaker 16: Turn it in beyond cause you say, I'm thinking about
- 32:12Speaker 16: the song wrong, right, And I'm like.
- 32:13Speaker 4: Hey, what'd be thinking about your man? Turned out? And
- 32:21Speaker 4: I'm just saying, I'm just saying, she was just so excited.
- 32:23Speaker 4: I'm just asking what they mean.
- 32:24Speaker 12: That's where the music.
- 32:25Speaker 4: That's love is Love got me thinking about my wife?
- 32:27Speaker 4: All right, I'm sorry, I get it.
- 32:28Speaker 12: It's fine.
- 32:31Speaker 16: No, we met on on tour ten years ago and
- 32:36Speaker 16: I saw him.
- 32:37Speaker 12: It's ten years later. I said, you know when.
- 32:39Speaker 16: You know, you know, you keep like all the movies
- 32:42Speaker 16: that you see that's corny, like never happy.
- 32:45Speaker 12: Yes, it did. It was.
- 32:46Speaker 16: I seen him and he had a red fit on
- 32:50Speaker 16: and I was like, who is that? And I approached
- 32:55Speaker 16: him like yo, what's up? And we got to talking
- 32:57Speaker 16: and we haven't stopped talking since.
- 33:00Speaker 1: You need to write a book called One Night's Thing
- 33:02Speaker 1: because there's so many people who think you got to
- 33:04Speaker 1: make the man wait thirty days or sixty days or
- 33:07Speaker 1: ninety days.
- 33:08Speaker 12: There's so many formulas to it.
- 33:10Speaker 16: Maybe you don't just follow your intuition because it all
- 33:13Speaker 16: depends on what type of person you are, Like there
- 33:16Speaker 16: are people that are I've never been.
- 33:19Speaker 12: I'm not approaching unless I know it's for sure. I
- 33:23Speaker 12: don't know. There's many formulas to it.
- 33:25Speaker 16: So even if I did write a book, I'm going
- 33:27Speaker 16: with what worked for me. I'm not giving you the
- 33:30Speaker 16: manual to how this works out, like ooh, you too
- 33:34Speaker 16: can find your ten.
- 33:35Speaker 12: Years later, or you know what I mean.
- 33:37Speaker 16: Like, I'm not giving it as game like that. I'm saying,
- 33:40Speaker 16: if you saw what it was that you wanted and
- 33:42Speaker 16: you didn't make your move, that's on you, because then
- 33:45Speaker 16: you'll sit there and pondone like, well, what if I
- 33:49Speaker 16: just said something, or if I just approached by the
- 33:52Speaker 16: time that I did, and it was what it was,
- 33:55Speaker 16: and I knew that it was more than just that
- 33:58Speaker 16: one night in Philadelphia, that one night in Chicago, that
- 34:03Speaker 16: one night in Virginia, that one night in la Now
- 34:06Speaker 16: it's many nights. Now it's all you want to move in, Sure,
- 34:10Speaker 16: moved in together. And then it's oh, you want to
- 34:13Speaker 16: go back to the UK for Christmas with me, meet
- 34:15Speaker 16: my whole family. Sure, And then by April we were pregnant. Wow,
- 34:19Speaker 16: that serious counts ridiculous when I say it doesn't know.
- 34:23Speaker 16: When I say ridiculous, it's like that's the timeline though,
- 34:26Speaker 16: you know, And we were both very sure.
- 34:29Speaker 1: And the album is very like nineteen ninety now, like,
- 34:32Speaker 1: how do you have such a nostalgic feeling feeling but
- 34:34Speaker 1: keep it fresh?
- 34:36Speaker 16: Any hip hop coronoissur or R and B head nineties
- 34:40Speaker 16: is just it's unmatched. It was a time if you
- 34:43Speaker 16: weren't outside, just say that. And I feel like with
- 34:46Speaker 16: this album to have grasped what the nass of the
- 34:51Speaker 16: world were doing then, the Mary's of the world were
- 34:53Speaker 16: doing then, but making it now it's because that was timeless.
- 34:58Speaker 3: I was gonna ask, you know, you talk about after
- 35:00Speaker 3: dre only releasing five percent of the music that he
- 35:02Speaker 3: actually made, how much music did y'all make and had
- 35:05Speaker 3: what was the process of trickling it down from the
- 35:08Speaker 3: amount of songs you made to this eleven?
- 35:10Speaker 12: You know what's crazy?
- 35:12Speaker 16: We made about twelve or thirteen songs really and knew
- 35:16Speaker 16: when it was time to start.
- 35:17Speaker 12: We knew it when it was completed.
- 35:19Speaker 16: And the only reason why the other two didn't make
- 35:22Speaker 16: it is because one of them. It made the album
- 35:25Speaker 16: play a little longer than we felt comfortable with, and
- 35:28Speaker 16: it matched another song on there like evenly, like if
- 35:31Speaker 16: you had to get rid of one of the other
- 35:34Speaker 16: definitely that one though, and one of them we couldn't clear,
- 35:37Speaker 16: like getting a damn one of them. So I was like, okay,
- 35:41Speaker 16: we can't clear that one. We have an album and
- 35:44Speaker 16: Dre in the creative process, has like a whiteboard on
- 35:48Speaker 16: the wall we'll write the titles for each song, and
- 35:50Speaker 16: we just looked at it and was like, that's it.
- 35:53Speaker 12: We're done.
- 35:54Speaker 16: So between end of April twenty twenty one and end
- 35:58Speaker 16: of May, we were completely done with recorded vocally. I
- 36:02Speaker 16: recorded everything, written everything. We took a couple of weeks
- 36:05Speaker 16: off and reconvened and Dre said twenty seven piece orchestra.
- 36:11Speaker 12: So we were at Gallas Studios.
- 36:13Speaker 16: Eric Golfain did the string arrangements and we were in
- 36:17Speaker 16: with the orchestra listening to them go crazy on this
- 36:22Speaker 16: album that we created, which was already.
- 36:24Speaker 12: Doing what it was gonna do.
- 36:26Speaker 16: This symphony just took it to another place, like didn't
- 36:30Speaker 16: even make any sense. So by the time that's happened,
- 36:34Speaker 16: it's just timeless.
- 36:36Speaker 12: In that way, all.
- 36:37Speaker 4: Right, we got more with Marsha Ambroses when we come back.
- 36:40Speaker 4: Let's get into her joint. It's called Thriller. It's the
- 36:43Speaker 4: Breakfast Club.
- 36:43Speaker 3: Good Morning Owning Everybody. It's DJ Envy Jess hilarious. Shall
- 36:47Speaker 3: I mean the guy we are the Breakfast Club? That
- 36:49Speaker 3: was Thriller.
- 36:49Speaker 4: Marsha Ambroses. Her album comes out next Friday.
- 36:52Speaker 12: What's happening?
- 36:54Speaker 3: I was watching the R and B Money podcast shot
- 36:57Speaker 3: the Tank and made a comment, I guess you was joking.
- 36:59Speaker 3: I don't know if you and not talking about you,
- 37:01Speaker 3: do Stevie want that really can see now?
- 37:03Speaker 4: And people took it as they were mad at you
- 37:04Speaker 4: for a little bit.
- 37:05Speaker 12: Mad at me.
- 37:06Speaker 4: How I don't.
- 37:07Speaker 16: Know, because if you're a Stevie Wonder fan, what I
- 37:11Speaker 16: said was, he can see if you listen to the
- 37:15Speaker 16: music to be one of the most prolific, descriptive songwriters
- 37:22Speaker 16: of our time, how can he not? And maybe not
- 37:25Speaker 16: in the way that you believe that that is, but
- 37:28Speaker 16: his pen game makes you visualize us with actual sight,
- 37:35Speaker 16: visualize everything.
- 37:37Speaker 12: He was saying, that's a gift.
- 37:40Speaker 16: That's what I said, Yes, he can see, because there's
- 37:44Speaker 16: no way he says I never dreamed you'd leave in summer,
- 37:47Speaker 16: and I literally see the summer day he's referring to.
- 37:50Speaker 16: That's not fair. Mary wants to be a superwoman, and
- 37:54Speaker 16: I know who Mary looks like. I've already made that character.
- 37:58Speaker 16: The song plays an I see it, Stevie more than
- 38:02Speaker 16: any song where I are, I believe on planet Earth
- 38:05Speaker 16: has made me see a song the way Stevie does.
- 38:08Speaker 12: That's what I said. I said what I like, I said,
- 38:12Speaker 12: That's why.
- 38:12Speaker 4: I said, I get what you're saying. He might be blind,
- 38:14Speaker 4: but he got a vision. It's a difference, speaking of vision.
- 38:17Speaker 16: To use that song on Casta Blanco, I remember Dre
- 38:21Speaker 16: actually he might Dre was nervous about using the Stevie
- 38:24Speaker 16: record or like asking him like yo, listen.
- 38:27Speaker 12: Stevie and see what he thinks.
- 38:29Speaker 16: Like okay, crazy, but yeah, we got to use visions
- 38:33Speaker 16: on Casta Blanco with Stevie's blessing and this fake lips
- 38:38Speaker 16: I keep making up, like I'll check that one off,
- 38:41Speaker 16: you know.
- 38:41Speaker 4: The Stevie FaceTime zoom.
- 38:44Speaker 16: I want to say it was a phone call that
- 38:47Speaker 16: I had and Dre had spoke to him also, So yeah,
- 38:53Speaker 16: we're just gonna let that one do this cool?
- 39:00Speaker 4: You caught it you as long as you caught him. Absolutely,
- 39:03Speaker 4: you caught it small too. I love it. I love it.
- 39:07Speaker 4: I've got a couple more questions.
- 39:08Speaker 16: And Jul what yes and wanted to be like I
- 39:14Speaker 16: had a spoiled experience. I was just getting to you know, Atlanta,
- 39:17Speaker 16: then get to Philly, get signed by the end of
- 39:19Speaker 16: that year. Now I'm in the studio within less than
- 39:22Speaker 16: a year of the time it took me to get
- 39:24Speaker 16: to the States. Then worked with Michael Jackson because he's
- 39:26Speaker 16: heard this demo and we were here in New York
- 39:30Speaker 16: Hit Factory. Michael Jackson was there in the studio two
- 39:33Speaker 16: hours before call time, just warming up his vocal. He
- 39:38Speaker 16: was that guy like he was great because he worked
- 39:42Speaker 16: unlike any other and Mike was just the king for
- 39:47Speaker 16: all reasons.
- 39:49Speaker 3: Now, you also mentioned fans were always will flowerd you
- 39:52Speaker 3: ever do an album together again?
- 39:54Speaker 4: Or that chapter your life is over?
- 39:55Speaker 12: Who knows? No chapters are closed.
- 39:57Speaker 16: And I think rewinding to what you said about you know,
- 40:00Speaker 16: when I met my husband. I did a Flowa Tree
- 40:02Speaker 16: tour twenty fifteen, twenty sixteen, and that's when I met
- 40:05Speaker 16: him and then got pregnant the following year on the
- 40:07Speaker 16: other tour, So it was like a back to.
- 40:09Speaker 12: Back Hey reunion. It's all love and yeah, who knows.
- 40:12Speaker 3: And also I seen Amanda Seals was all Club Shah
- 40:15Speaker 3: and talks about she said that she thinks she wanted
- 40:18Speaker 3: her to quit flow a Tree.
- 40:20Speaker 4: Was that true?
- 40:20Speaker 16: The loaded question quit Flowa try is very vague. What
- 40:25Speaker 16: was happening with Amanda Seals? And this is what someone
- 40:29Speaker 16: spend a lot of time in this. This is like
- 40:30Speaker 16: a quick bit when did we last dough the Breakfast Club?
- 40:33Speaker 16: This is like seven maybe.
- 40:36Speaker 7: Yes.
- 40:36Speaker 16: So initially, the first thing I said about Amanda Seals
- 40:41Speaker 16: is sorry, and it was she was put in a
- 40:44Speaker 16: position that she shouldn't have been in the first place,
- 40:47Speaker 16: the label and management of trying to re establish what
- 40:50Speaker 16: that was and it just didn't work.
- 40:52Speaker 12: So by the time we've put all of these.
- 40:54Speaker 16: Things into action, we've rehearsed a show and you've given
- 40:57Speaker 16: it to the public. Everyone has gone oh nah, and
- 41:00Speaker 16: there's nothing I can do about that part. And this
- 41:04Speaker 16: is also seventeen years ago, three weeks of a summer toll.
- 41:08Speaker 16: We may have done like fifteen or sixteen shows and
- 41:11Speaker 16: it just didn't work out.
- 41:13Speaker 12: And that was the end of that, really, but we've.
- 41:16Speaker 16: Had nothing but for me, we'd had nothing but positive
- 41:20Speaker 16: interactions thereafter. Like I saw her twenty thirteen, we took
- 41:24Speaker 16: pictures together, we reminisced, and she'd been texting me throughout
- 41:28Speaker 16: the years after that, nothing but positive vibes. So I'm
- 41:32Speaker 16: in a good space right now, seventeen years later. So
- 41:36Speaker 16: for whatever she believes that was, I don't think publicly
- 41:40Speaker 16: we can do this combative. Well you said this happened,
- 41:43Speaker 16: or I said this happened. I know exactly what happened
- 41:46Speaker 16: on my end, but you know, it's kind of seventeen
- 41:49Speaker 16: years ago. I've done all this healing between now and then.
- 41:53Speaker 16: I'm not the same Like seventeen years ago, two thousand
- 41:55Speaker 16: and seven, I'm still talking to Michael Jackson at that point,
- 41:58Speaker 16: I've still got prints on speak like I was still
- 42:01Speaker 16: very much Grammy winning Grammy nominated me, that was in
- 42:06Speaker 16: a position to do what I wanted to do at
- 42:09Speaker 16: that point, moving forward. And here we are seventeen years later,
- 42:13Speaker 16: and I'm still moving on and moving forward, and Casa
- 42:18Speaker 16: Blanco with doctor Dre's about to drop and just in
- 42:21Speaker 16: a different space, you.
- 42:23Speaker 1: Know, on the song Greedy, It makes me wonder that
- 42:26Speaker 1: your husband ever hear certain lyrics and be like, you're
- 42:27Speaker 1: talking about us because you say it's never enough to
- 42:29Speaker 1: love you, same old lamb old.
- 42:31Speaker 4: Ain't no way I'm ever going to take that. I'm
- 42:33Speaker 4: giving you everything, and this the thanks I get.
- 42:35Speaker 16: Don't play that even if it was Greedy. During that
- 42:39Speaker 16: time and even during the creative process of Casa Blanco,
- 42:43Speaker 16: my husband and I had a conversation about where I
- 42:47Speaker 16: was at mentally to create the actual Basically, he said
- 42:53Speaker 16: I didn't have to be married marsh and come from
- 42:56Speaker 16: that space. And I understood what he said when he
- 42:59Speaker 16: said that, because the love songs are different if I'm
- 43:02Speaker 16: attached to the relationship I'm in and having to kind
- 43:07Speaker 16: of skirt around what that looks like. Those songs sound
- 43:10Speaker 16: like don't Wake the Baby or just like Old Times,
- 43:13Speaker 16: and they're different.
- 43:14Speaker 12: With this, it was you need.
- 43:16Speaker 16: To stretch that pen and write from a space of
- 43:19Speaker 16: you doing you and what does that sound like. So
- 43:22Speaker 16: by the time I got to Greedy, I was angry
- 43:25Speaker 16: at the world, like it's never enough to love anyone
- 43:29Speaker 16: or anything and then be satisfied in a way that
- 43:33Speaker 16: you feel like you put your one hundred in and
- 43:36Speaker 16: they only claim it's thirty percent. So I could give
- 43:39Speaker 16: you the moon and it's like, well where the sun at?
- 43:41Speaker 16: Like it's the Moon family that you don't want, you know,
- 43:46Speaker 16: And I feel like greedy.
- 43:48Speaker 12: I was talking about everyone.
- 43:50Speaker 16: It wasn't even just about him, it was everyone and
- 43:54Speaker 16: everything playing this tugger war of if you're not next
- 43:58Speaker 16: to me, you feel as though you're missing out on
- 44:00Speaker 16: something that you only gain by being with me or
- 44:04Speaker 16: taking something from me. I'm like, well, what's the endgame?
- 44:08Speaker 16: Like what exactly do you want? Because you're really upset,
- 44:11Speaker 16: like you're mad as that you're not around me like
- 44:14Speaker 16: that greedy.
- 44:16Speaker 4: Fantastic album comes out next Friday, June twenty eighth.

- 45:04Speaker 9: Soon?
- 45:04Speaker 15: Now?
- 45:05Speaker 1: Well, sexy red Donkey today goes to a thirty five
- 45:08Speaker 1: year old man named Rashan Shahwaleh. No Rashan shahwal Ajuwani.
- 45:15Speaker 1: I don't know if I pronounced this man's name right,
- 45:16Speaker 1: but let's get to the story. Rashaan is likely headed
- 45:19Speaker 1: for trial, according to La County Superior Court records, because
- 45:22Speaker 1: he was arrested on October eighteenth.
- 45:24Speaker 4: What was Rashan arrested for?
- 45:26Speaker 1: A Well, he was arrested because he was accused of
- 45:29Speaker 1: trying to steal a hash Brown at gunpoint from a McDonald's.
- 45:33Speaker 1: I repeat, he was accused of trying to steal a
- 45:36Speaker 1: hash Brown at gunpoint from a McDonald's. Not even with
- 45:40Speaker 1: a real gun, okay, a replica pistol. See y'all think
- 45:43Speaker 1: I'd be lying, but you can look this up. The
- 45:45Speaker 1: victim reported that Rashan arrived at the third window in
- 45:48Speaker 1: the drive through line and demanded a third hash brown
- 45:51Speaker 1: after ordering two.
- 45:52Speaker 4: Okay, big back behavior.
- 45:54Speaker 1: The employee of the employee the McDonald's let the suspect
- 45:58Speaker 1: know that he only paid for two, and the suspect
- 46:00Speaker 1: Rashaan told the McDonald's employee, don't you have with me?
- 46:03Speaker 1: While using the employee's name from his name tax So
- 46:05Speaker 1: let's just paint the picture if the guy's name that
- 46:08Speaker 1: worked the McDonald's was Calvin.
- 46:09Speaker 4: Rashaan kept saying, don't you have put me Calvin?
- 46:12Speaker 1: Well, clearly he thought Calvin was still lefting with him,
- 46:14Speaker 1: so he Rashaan or Rashion went to his vehicle, pulled
- 46:18Speaker 1: out a firearm, the fake gun, a prosthetic pistol if
- 46:22Speaker 1: you will, a silicone scrap, a GMO gat. He pointed
- 46:25Speaker 1: this impossible piece, this beyond biscuit at the employee and said,
- 46:29Speaker 1: these hash browns ain't dying for you. He didn't really
- 46:32Speaker 1: say that, but in my mind that's how he was
- 46:34Speaker 1: bringing it. Okay, but he did point the firearm at
- 46:36Speaker 1: the victim's chest, and the McDonald's employee said he gave
- 46:38Speaker 1: up the third hash brown because he was in fear
- 46:41Speaker 1: of his life. You think, and can you believe Rashaan
- 46:46Speaker 1: had a wife. Investigators identified the SUVD that he was
- 46:49Speaker 1: driving and it was registered in his wife's name.
- 46:51Speaker 4: All right.
- 46:52Speaker 1: They served the search one on their own and the
- 46:54Speaker 1: victim positively identified Rashan out of a lineup, and deputies
- 46:58Speaker 1: found a black Glock nineteen style compressed air fired pistol
- 47:03Speaker 1: during their search of the Canyon County home. This man
- 47:05Speaker 1: had a house, an SUV, and a wife and he
- 47:10Speaker 1: robbing people for hash browns. Now he's facing two to
- 47:13Speaker 1: five years in prison. The judge denied a motion by
- 47:15Speaker 1: Rashawn's council they wanted a mental health diversion for him,
- 47:19Speaker 1: citing the aggravating and mitigation factors. I don't even know
- 47:22Speaker 1: what that means, but I do believe Rashaanna is dealing
- 47:25Speaker 1: with some type of mental health issues, because you don't
- 47:27Speaker 1: flip out like that over no damn hashbrown.
- 47:29Speaker 4: A hash brown and you already.
- 47:31Speaker 1: Had two, Okay, Robin and McDonald's for a hash Brown
- 47:35Speaker 1: is like sticking up a Starbucks for a free Wi
- 47:37Speaker 1: Fi code. Okay, It's like robbing a seven to eleven
- 47:40Speaker 1: for a free slurpey refill. If you're gonna commit a crime,
- 47:43Speaker 1: at least still something that doesn't cost less than your
- 47:45Speaker 1: bus fare home. And you ain't even need what fickers
- 47:48Speaker 1: you to ask v Okay, who the hell wants to
- 47:51Speaker 1: spend two to five years in prison because they committed
- 47:54Speaker 1: grand theft breakfast?
- 47:55Speaker 4: All right?
- 47:56Speaker 1: Nobody in prison gonna take you serious? You selly, ask
- 47:59Speaker 1: you what you're in for? You say, stealing hash browns?
- 48:01Speaker 4: Then you sell. He turns to you and says, your
- 48:02Speaker 4: ass brown.
- 48:03Speaker 1: Okay, that's what things can get tricky, all right, Robin
- 48:05Speaker 1: McDonald's for a hash brown?
- 48:07Speaker 4: How hungry do.
- 48:09Speaker 1: You have to beat at risk five to ten years
- 48:11Speaker 1: for a dollar menu item?
- 48:12Speaker 4: Okay?
- 48:13Speaker 1: Now there's a part of me that respects the basicness
- 48:16Speaker 1: of it all though. Okay, Rashaun walked into a McDonald's
- 48:19Speaker 1: with a GMO gat and what did he demand? Not
- 48:21Speaker 1: the hotcakes? Not a sausage biscuit? Okay, by the way,
- 48:24Speaker 1: McDonald's is twenty twenty four. Can we get chicken sausage biscuits,
- 48:27Speaker 1: turkey sausage biscuits?
- 48:28Speaker 4: Please? No pork on my fork?
- 48:29Speaker 1: But he didn't want either. Rashwan didn't want any of that.
- 48:32Speaker 1: He wanted a hash brown. You gotta respect the simplicity.
- 48:36Speaker 1: Forget what's in the cash register. He wanted that fried potato. Okay,
- 48:40Speaker 1: who knew you could turn Big Back Breakfast Cravens into
- 48:44Speaker 1: a felony. Now I have the president of the Fat
- 48:47Speaker 1: Lives Matter Committee. We don't have the wobble in there. Dude,
- 48:49Speaker 1: I like he walks in. Want wobble, Big Mac? You
- 48:55Speaker 1: know anything concerning food. Big Mac wants the weigh in
- 48:58Speaker 1: because you know he can break the skull Mac the Floyd.
- 49:01Speaker 2: I hate short people, man, I hate short people all
- 49:06Speaker 2: the time. But I had to speak on this one
- 49:10Speaker 2: because as the president, I knew he was gonna shame
- 49:13Speaker 2: this man. And that's because you always looking at it
- 49:15Speaker 2: from the skinny committee.
- 49:17Speaker 4: You're not looking at it from the other side of it.
- 49:19Speaker 2: Okay, first off, do you know how much hashbrowns all
- 49:21Speaker 2: these days?
- 49:21Speaker 4: How much? Three dollars and forty nine cents?
- 49:25Speaker 8: Yeah?
- 49:25Speaker 4: Yeah, they changes now. Huh So he didn't rob McDonald's
- 49:30Speaker 4: for a hash brown.
- 49:31Speaker 2: He paid for three because hashbrowns used to be a dollar.
- 49:38Speaker 4: Do your research that.
- 49:39Speaker 2: Yes, you're not part of it. I get the emails
- 49:42Speaker 2: all the time. Every time they change it. So he
- 49:44Speaker 2: had robbed that. I used to pay a dollar for it.
- 49:47Speaker 2: So technically when he got his receipts saw three dollars,
- 49:50Speaker 2: he said, oh, wait a minute, I didn't pay for
- 49:53Speaker 2: three hash Browns.
- 49:54Speaker 4: I only got two. Let me pull up, let me
- 49:56Speaker 4: get that other one.
- 49:56Speaker 1: That wouldn't make no sense because he bought two. So
- 49:58Speaker 1: then that way, that'd be like almost seven dollar.
- 50:00Speaker 4: Until he saw his receipts, said, oh, they charged me
- 50:02Speaker 4: for three. I gotta go back around. Let me get
- 50:04Speaker 4: that third one.
- 50:05Speaker 1: Technically, if you see seven dollars, that'd be they would
- 50:07Speaker 1: charge them for like seven or eight based off the logic.
- 50:10Speaker 4: Right.
- 50:10Speaker 2: But he's probably was getting frustrated because you know the
- 50:13Speaker 2: gas prices is high too.
- 50:14Speaker 4: He's like, I'm not gonna keep moping around. That's why
- 50:15Speaker 4: he pulled the gun out.
- 50:16Speaker 2: I'm more mad that he kept the gun for the
- 50:18Speaker 2: cops to find him than he is about doing the
- 50:21Speaker 2: hashpron thing.
- 50:23Speaker 4: Please give Rashwan Rashan.
- 50:27Speaker 1: I'll let you wani the biggest he huh, okay, give
- 50:30Speaker 1: me some switches and the Hamiltons too.
- 50:33Speaker 13: Oh ye.
- 50:52Speaker 2: Don't know, I'm taking the donkey back, don't you know
- 50:54Speaker 2: you you do.
- 50:55Speaker 4: You standing here like you in line at the cookout.
- 50:58Speaker 1: Okay, but you still had you played this full man,
- 51:03Speaker 1: You got to sit at the kids table.
- 51:09Speaker 3: You don't think McDonald should get a little bit after
- 51:10Speaker 3: the hash Browns being three nineteen.
- 51:12Speaker 2: Yes, and then you know they don't sell it all
- 51:14Speaker 2: day like some of the other breakfast out him, so
- 51:16Speaker 2: he was probably like, damn, I only got like thirty minutes.
- 51:18Speaker 4: Let me swing back around real quick.
- 51:20Speaker 2: And then the what you say, Charles and Chuck that
- 51:22Speaker 2: everybody try to be a hero, Calvin, Calvin, everybody try
- 51:25Speaker 2: to be a hero when they work the fast food.
- 51:27Speaker 4: Just give me the damn hash.
- 51:29Speaker 1: Brown You know there's headlines about this. Three dollars for
- 51:32Speaker 1: a single. McDonald's has custom easy, fed up and pushing back.

- 52:10Speaker 8: it's cool to be in person.
- 52:11Speaker 4: Yeah, it was zoom. How's your spirit? How's your energy?
- 52:14Speaker 17: I'm super good. I'm like, probably the best I've ever been.

- 52:24Speaker 17: of them in person and just like be back in
- 52:25Speaker 17: the swing of things.
- 52:26Speaker 8: So I'm good.
- 52:26Speaker 3: They say you're a gym wrap. They said you up
- 52:28Speaker 3: at six o'clock this morning in the gym. They say
- 52:29Speaker 3: every morning.
- 52:31Speaker 17: Oh about this morning. I was dead sleep this morning.
- 52:35Speaker 17: But yeah, I'm up. I'm always about my fitness stuff.
- 52:38Speaker 17: I'm super healthy and the healthiest I've also ever been.
- 52:41Speaker 1: So I will say, you know, listening to your new
- 52:44Speaker 1: album and just seeing you over the last few months
- 52:47Speaker 1: several months, talking like there's a confidence and a sense
- 52:50Speaker 1: of self.
- 52:50Speaker 4: That you have now because you didn't have years ago.
- 52:53Speaker 8: Yeah, for sure.
- 52:54Speaker 4: Why is that?
- 52:55Speaker 17: I mean, I think it's been a long mental health journey.
- 52:57Speaker 17: I think it's been a lot of contributing factors, new motherhood,
- 53:01Speaker 17: different angles of like publicly being publicly aligned with certain
- 53:05Speaker 17: things or publicly misaligned. They're just like not stepping into myself.
- 53:09Speaker 17: I'm twenty nine, I'll be thirty next year. Like I'm
- 53:11Speaker 17: just I'm growing up in a real way, so like
- 53:13Speaker 17: I know how to prioritize and take care of myself differently.
- 53:16Speaker 8: Now, So why did you name the album Crash?
- 53:18Speaker 17: So essentially, a crash is the height and the peak
- 53:23Speaker 17: of a moment. It isn't like the anxiety that comes before,
- 53:25Speaker 17: and it isn't like the overthinking that comes after. It's
- 53:29Speaker 17: just this like, excuse me, cluster. It's just this this.
- 53:32Speaker 8: Thing that happens.
- 53:33Speaker 17: And I knew this album wasn't gonna make sense to
- 53:35Speaker 17: most people. I knew that it would be something that
- 53:37Speaker 17: you either loved or that you hated, and that kind
- 53:40Speaker 17: of just is a crash And that's kind of been
- 53:42Speaker 17: The reception is some people hate it and people love it.
- 53:44Speaker 8: So people think it's my worst and some people think.
- 53:45Speaker 17: It's my best. And I think that's really cool.
- 53:47Speaker 4: It's a little bit of everything.
- 53:48Speaker 8: Yes, it's a crash. It's really.
- 53:53Speaker 4: What you wanted to do.
- 53:54Speaker 8: You know.
- 53:54Speaker 17: I didn't start wanting to do that, and started as
- 53:56Speaker 17: myself titled and I went on this mission to like
- 53:59Speaker 17: make finely make the Kilani album because I haven't done
- 54:01Speaker 17: that yet. And we started in like going to all
- 54:04Speaker 17: these different cities, and we got all these airbnbs in
- 54:06Speaker 17: different places, and it just kind of grew into this
- 54:09Speaker 17: thing that resembled I feel like me as a person.
- 54:11Speaker 17: I feel like I've always been kind of this thing
- 54:13Speaker 17: that doesn't make sense to everyone.
- 54:15Speaker 8: They can't figure out like.
- 54:16Speaker 17: Who I am, what I am, what my story is,
- 54:18Speaker 17: how it's been all of these things like can't figure
- 54:21Speaker 17: me out and whatever kind of way how I look
- 54:23Speaker 17: versus how what kind of music I make, how I sound.
- 54:25Speaker 17: Once it started taking its own life, I was like, oh, okay,
- 54:27Speaker 17: it's just me as an album.
- 54:28Speaker 4: So yeah, what is the self titled Kilania album supposed
- 54:31Speaker 4: to be?
- 54:32Speaker 7: Like?
- 54:32Speaker 3: Because you said it was supposed to be a Kilani albums,
- 54:34Speaker 3: what was that supposed.
- 54:35Speaker 17: To Well, that album, to me, is more rooted in
- 54:39Speaker 17: the core things that shaped why I sing. I feel
- 54:43Speaker 17: like the Kilani album will be much more referencing like
- 54:46Speaker 17: my actual core musical references. It'll probably be a lot
- 54:48Speaker 17: more R and B. But this album really reflected all
- 54:51Speaker 17: the things that I listened to that I grew up
- 54:53Speaker 17: listening to, but didn't necessarily shape my identity as an artist,
- 54:56Speaker 17: but reflect, like, you know, worldly where I'm at. So
- 55:00Speaker 17: basically we're still getting Kaylanic out absolutely that I'll probably
- 55:02Speaker 17: be my next album probably.
- 55:04Speaker 4: Yeah, Lose my Wife is such a toxic record. It
- 55:07Speaker 4: is so toxic.
- 55:09Speaker 1: Would why would you make those choices and decisions knowing
- 55:12Speaker 1: that it could cost you your wife? Oh?
- 55:14Speaker 17: You know, it's not a true story. I just wanted to.
- 55:17Speaker 13: It's true.
- 55:18Speaker 17: So my head Crash is the story of this anti
- 55:23Speaker 17: hero version of myself that goes to Vegas and has
- 55:26Speaker 17: this crazy run in Vegas and ends with that lament
- 55:29Speaker 17: of like oh this is crashed instantly, and it's almost
- 55:32Speaker 17: like the come down song of like, oh, these are
- 55:34Speaker 17: the decisions that I've made and like this is what happens.
- 55:36Speaker 17: So it's more of like a sonic story and an
- 55:39Speaker 17: ending to the story than a true story that I
- 55:41Speaker 17: needed to smack on there. It kind of feels like
- 55:44Speaker 17: the Hungover song kind of feels like the next day
- 55:46Speaker 17: you're like.
- 55:47Speaker 4: This is your shadow side exactly. Yeah, but when I hear.
- 55:51Speaker 1: Songs like after Hours or like better than No or Tears,
- 55:54Speaker 1: it does feel like you're longing for a stable relationship,
- 55:57Speaker 1: does it a little bit? Yeah?
- 56:01Speaker 17: I mean I think everybody wants love, everybody wants stable love,
- 56:04Speaker 17: and we all just have different journeys to it.
- 56:05Speaker 1: You know.
- 56:06Speaker 4: Yeah, how has motherhood been?
- 56:08Speaker 8: Oh, it's the best, this journey, it's the best. She's five.
- 56:11Speaker 8: I can't believe it.
- 56:13Speaker 17: Yeah, and that that's all different.
- 56:17Speaker 8: I got one third thing.
- 56:18Speaker 17: I'm literally like, I'll make the day seem so fun.
- 56:22Speaker 17: I'm like, we're going to the aquarium and we're going here,
- 56:24Speaker 17: We're going here. And then she's like no, kind of
- 56:27Speaker 17: just want to stay in the house and play. I'm like, jeez,
- 56:30Speaker 17: what are we gonna do? The other dad took her
- 56:31Speaker 17: to the park and she was like, I'm just letting
- 56:33Speaker 17: you guys know, I'm not playing with any of those kids.
- 56:36Speaker 17: And I was like, I respect it, but maybe we
- 56:37Speaker 17: should try. And she made some friends and she's in school,
- 56:41Speaker 17: so like she is friends.
- 56:42Speaker 4: She still got music. I heard you say one time
- 56:44Speaker 4: she had some She's on the album.
- 56:46Speaker 8: She's on Deep.
- 56:47Speaker 17: She actually sounds so good that you can't really tell
- 56:50Speaker 17: that it is her except for her tone is obviously
- 56:52Speaker 17: sounds a lot younger than mine.
- 56:54Speaker 8: But she's singing her asshole.
- 56:55Speaker 4: Do you want her in the industry?
- 56:57Speaker 17: I want her to do whatever she wants to do.
- 56:58Speaker 17: If that means industry, sure, that means she wants my help. Sure,
- 57:01Speaker 17: If that means she doesn't want my help, sure, If
- 57:02Speaker 17: that means she wants to be a brain surgeon or
- 57:04Speaker 17: a rocket scientist, let's do that. It's her world. I'm
- 57:06Speaker 17: just here.
- 57:07Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 57:07Speaker 1: Is the industry good for kids? I mean, you're somebody
- 57:09Speaker 1: who came in the industry as yet young, right.
- 57:13Speaker 17: I think that there's pros and cons on both sides. One,
- 57:16Speaker 17: I didn't have access to the proper like mental wellness
- 57:21Speaker 17: type of regimen or care to have grown up in
- 57:23Speaker 17: it the way that I did. And we're seeing the
- 57:25Speaker 17: effects of people who you know, adults now and all
- 57:27Speaker 17: these stories are coming out about them being like child
- 57:30Speaker 17: stars are coming out young. And on the flip side,
- 57:32Speaker 17: I feel like people now have access to that. But
- 57:35Speaker 17: there's it's also a different demon fame now is completely different.
- 57:39Speaker 17: It's why I don't really post my daughter. I don't
- 57:41Speaker 17: there's too many creeps. I don't ever hear to ever
- 57:43Speaker 17: look back and be like, I actually didn't consent to
- 57:45Speaker 17: any of this. I didn't give any permission. We already
- 57:47Speaker 17: get embarrassed when our parents play home videos for our
- 57:50Speaker 17: friends when they come over, Like if I'm just subjecting
- 57:53Speaker 17: my child to her home video, her freaking growing up
- 57:55Speaker 17: home videos being widely known all over the internet, and
- 57:58Speaker 17: she grows up one day and it's like I didn't
- 57:59Speaker 17: get to tell if I wanted that or not.
- 58:01Speaker 8: You know, that's not me as a parent. So yeah,
- 58:03Speaker 8: any more babies. I would love to have more babies.
- 58:05Speaker 8: Whatever God wants to bless me with I receive.
- 58:07Speaker 4: Can we talk about the record?
- 58:08Speaker 5: What I want?
- 58:09Speaker 8: Yeah?
- 58:09Speaker 4: I want to look better than me.
- 58:14Speaker 8: You're reading it so serious?
- 58:16Speaker 4: Yeah, what I want? He was so excited to read
- 58:25Speaker 4: on that record.
- 58:25Speaker 1: It seems like you're torn between wanting to be spoiled
- 58:28Speaker 1: but also feeling comfortable being the one who spoils.
- 58:31Speaker 17: Yeah, okay, I'm definitely like I fluctuate. Absolutely.
- 58:34Speaker 8: I think I'm more of a giver than a receiver
- 58:37Speaker 8: of like spoiling. I think that's just my nature.
- 58:40Speaker 17: But it's just a classic song about naming all the
- 58:43Speaker 17: things that I want. I don't think any of them
- 58:44Speaker 17: are even cohesive. I think they're just like, here's a

- 1:00:19Speaker 8: Is the freak Lord honestly the original freak. So I
- 1:00:22Speaker 8: had to tap her in. Yeah, yeah, she that was
- 1:00:25Speaker 8: an honor.
- 1:00:26Speaker 3: We got more with Kilanie when we come back, don't move.
- 1:00:28Speaker 3: It's the Breakfast Club, Good Morning Dating. Everybody is dj
- 1:00:31Speaker 3: n V. Jess, Larry Chelamine, the guy we are the
- 1:00:34Speaker 3: Breakfast Club was still kicking it with Kilanie.
- 1:00:36Speaker 4: Jess.
- 1:00:37Speaker 8: I noticed that she don't have a lot of features. Yeah,
- 1:00:39Speaker 8: is that intentional?
- 1:00:40Speaker 7: No?
- 1:00:41Speaker 8: I tried to give more features.
- 1:00:42Speaker 17: There was a couple of things that were going on,
- 1:00:44Speaker 17: different time things and not necessarily being aligned at the time,
- 1:00:48Speaker 17: different people not aligning with me, and just things.
- 1:00:51Speaker 8: Not making sense.
- 1:00:52Speaker 17: But the ones that did stick around for me and
- 1:00:54Speaker 17: really you know, held me down. I'm super appreciative and
- 1:00:56Speaker 17: they killed it.
- 1:00:57Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 1:00:57Speaker 3: Now after I was were you surprised of how fast
- 1:01:00Speaker 3: to take off, especially on social media?
- 1:01:01Speaker 8: Crazy?
- 1:01:02Speaker 4: Yeah, that was like a huge.
- 1:01:04Speaker 17: Dancing Yeah, honestly, you have to give a lot of
- 1:01:06Speaker 17: credit to Darius Hickman, who is an incredible dancer, and
- 1:01:09Speaker 17: he was in the After Hours video and he left
- 1:01:11Speaker 17: rehearsal for one of the for the After Hours video,
- 1:01:15Speaker 17: I went home and just like made this little dance
- 1:01:17Speaker 17: on TikTok and it just like it took it on one.
- 1:01:19Speaker 17: I think it's such a testament to how powerful like
- 1:01:22Speaker 17: dance is and how like dancers are, like DJ's like
- 1:01:24Speaker 17: they can really break songs like it's I give him
- 1:01:27Speaker 17: all the credit for that because it's crazy.
- 1:01:29Speaker 4: Did you know who MOOI d was beforehand? Yeah?
- 1:01:32Speaker 1: Of course you disrespect her like that, asking.
- 1:01:37Speaker 8: Like, of course the one.
- 1:01:38Speaker 4: Song, so you know, maybe people did she have one? Course?
- 1:01:43Speaker 4: I think she had one.
- 1:01:44Speaker 1: Now you also mentioned that this album isn't rooted in
- 1:01:47Speaker 1: your personal experiences? Are relationships like your previous albums? Are
- 1:01:51Speaker 1: you saying that just so you don't get in trouble
- 1:01:52Speaker 1: and people be like Dann Coline's so toxic?
- 1:01:54Speaker 17: No, I think I think anytime at so bad.
- 1:02:02Speaker 8: So bad.
- 1:02:02Speaker 17: You know what's so funny is I think people would
- 1:02:04Speaker 17: be surprised if they sat down with me to to
- 1:02:07Speaker 17: actually ask and inquire about my experiences, because they might
- 1:02:10Speaker 17: look one way, but it's so many different scenarios that
- 1:02:13Speaker 17: lead to while my love life looks the way it does,
- 1:02:15Speaker 17: and so many that you would be surprised. Who what's
- 1:02:18Speaker 17: happened with this? And what's happened with this? And it's
- 1:02:20Speaker 17: just it's my business and it's my world, and I'm
- 1:02:23Speaker 17: pretty much in good standing with anybody ever, so like
- 1:02:26Speaker 17: running through these chicks is extreme.
- 1:02:28Speaker 8: You do really want me to be a pampan? You know?
- 1:02:30Speaker 8: Maybe maybe I'll just start embodying it. Maybe maybe I'll
- 1:02:34Speaker 8: maybe I just accept it.
- 1:02:36Speaker 3: Yeah, does people in your in your regular business not
- 1:02:40Speaker 3: just your music business all the time.
- 1:02:42Speaker 8: No, I think it came. It comes with the territory.
- 1:02:44Speaker 4: At one time, feel like that, Well.
- 1:02:45Speaker 8: I gotta hated it so bad.
- 1:02:46Speaker 17: But I also I have been again, your mental health
- 1:02:50Speaker 17: journey and your journey in being a public facing person,
- 1:02:54Speaker 17: those have to be in lockstep like those if you
- 1:02:57Speaker 17: are ever having poor mental health.
- 1:02:59Speaker 8: There are so many times I can say I've been.
- 1:03:00Speaker 17: At a table with y'all and been in the worst
- 1:03:02Speaker 17: states of my life and I was like, Okay, that
- 1:03:04Speaker 17: interview is going to be whatever. And times I've been like,
- 1:03:06Speaker 17: I'm actually not doing interviews this year because all of this. Absolutely,
- 1:03:11Speaker 17: but I've also was not in a positive space to
- 1:03:15Speaker 17: even be able to walk in a room and like
- 1:03:17Speaker 17: hold that. Granted, I think the interview at the time
- 1:03:20Speaker 17: that caused things like that wasn't my favorite experience with someone, no,
- 1:03:23Speaker 17: but I also, at multiple times in my career just
- 1:03:26Speaker 17: have not been just aligned with where I needed to
- 1:03:29Speaker 17: be to be able to show up in that way.
- 1:03:30Speaker 8: So now I can hold that. You could probably say
- 1:03:32Speaker 8: anything to me and I'd be like, all right, cool.
- 1:03:34Speaker 1: I'm a huge mental health advocate. So what got you
- 1:03:37Speaker 1: to that place where you are?
- 1:03:38Speaker 5: Now?
- 1:03:39Speaker 7: You know?
- 1:03:39Speaker 1: And I mean, and I know it's a journey. I
- 1:03:40Speaker 1: know it's up, so I know it's down, But what
- 1:03:42Speaker 1: got you to this.
- 1:03:43Speaker 17: Yeah, honestly, I'm going to use this moment to be
- 1:03:46Speaker 17: really transparent and to really advocate for people, you know,
- 1:03:49Speaker 17: getting psychiatric care. And I got a psychiatrist and I
- 1:03:53Speaker 17: got a proper diagnosis after what felt like years of
- 1:03:55Speaker 17: getting soft diagnosis and misdiagnosis, and I'm able to get
- 1:03:59Speaker 17: medicat help and it keeps my mood stable and I'm
- 1:04:02Speaker 17: here and it keeps me like I would absolutely recommend
- 1:04:05Speaker 17: it to anybody that feels like they need it, because
- 1:04:07Speaker 17: it's not something that anybody needs to shame or like
- 1:04:10Speaker 17: be nervous about. And it's probably the best thing I've
- 1:04:12Speaker 17: ever done for myself for sure.
- 1:04:13Speaker 3: What got you there because most people, like you said,
- 1:04:15Speaker 3: they feel like they can't talk about it, they can't
- 1:04:17Speaker 3: discuss it, they can't get to help because they don't
- 1:04:18Speaker 3: want to be shamed, especially celebrity. You feel like somebody
- 1:04:21Speaker 3: will see me do this, that and the other. But
- 1:04:22Speaker 3: what got you to the point was like, f this,
- 1:04:23Speaker 3: I need to get help.
- 1:04:24Speaker 17: You know, I was medicated when I was a kid,
- 1:04:26Speaker 17: and I remember not having the most proper experience with
- 1:04:31Speaker 17: it just because I was really young, and like you're
- 1:04:33Speaker 17: in school and like every kid has ADHD and like
- 1:04:36Speaker 17: it's hyperactive and.
- 1:04:37Speaker 4: Age where you first medicate, do you remember?
- 1:04:39Speaker 17: I had to be in like the third grade on
- 1:04:43Speaker 17: riddling and it really messed with my personality. And my
- 1:04:46Speaker 17: mom was like, yeah, no, like you can't be a zombie.
- 1:04:48Speaker 17: Like I'll take hyperactive turned the up, you know over
- 1:04:51Speaker 17: like whatever this zombie you know. And then on top
- 1:04:56Speaker 17: of that, still I just remained with the psychiatrist. And
- 1:04:59Speaker 17: then I'm you know, when it's teenagehood and I didn't
- 1:05:01Speaker 17: have that anymore. And then I became an adult and
- 1:05:03Speaker 17: just like my experiences in the music industry and the
- 1:05:07Speaker 17: amount of like PTSD that that causes, paired with you know,
- 1:05:11Speaker 17: all your childhood trauma and like all these things, you
- 1:05:14Speaker 17: kind of get to a point where you're like, all right,
- 1:05:16Speaker 17: I'm not an expert. Like I can't keep being the
- 1:05:19Speaker 17: one to dictate this or to supplement or like to
- 1:05:22Speaker 17: to try to fix an ice, to smoke a lot
- 1:05:23Speaker 17: of weed.
- 1:05:24Speaker 8: Can't do it, won't do it.
- 1:05:27Speaker 17: Oh, I haven't been a smoker in five years.
- 1:05:30Speaker 8: People bring me weed all the time, and I'm like, dang,
- 1:05:33Speaker 8: that's the.
- 1:05:34Speaker 1: Indigo kind of calms your anxiety. So Teava makes you
- 1:05:37Speaker 1: have panic.
- 1:05:38Speaker 4: You know.
- 1:05:38Speaker 17: It was because I got pregnant and I couldn't and
- 1:05:41Speaker 17: then I got I went to a throat doctor and
- 1:05:43Speaker 17: he was like, oh, you don't want to sing for
- 1:05:44Speaker 17: the rest of your life the way you're look because
- 1:05:46Speaker 17: I was smoking backwards, I was smoking blunts, and I
- 1:05:49Speaker 17: just I couldn't do it anymore. And I'm just I
- 1:05:51Speaker 17: got to a point where I was like, Okay, I'm
- 1:05:53Speaker 17: doing all the things that I can possibly do. I'm
- 1:05:55Speaker 17: going to the gym, I'm developing good hobbies, not going out,
- 1:05:58Speaker 17: and I'm not doing this and I'm still struggling. It's
- 1:06:00Speaker 17: to the point where I need to call you know,
- 1:06:02Speaker 17: I need to ask for help.
- 1:06:03Speaker 1: I keep talk about your fitness journey. Yeah, but then
- 1:06:07Speaker 1: they said, recently you were body shamed on you know.
- 1:06:10Speaker 17: It was an interesting body shame because what it was
- 1:06:13Speaker 17: was the accusations that I got ab etching.
- 1:06:16Speaker 8: But girl's second. Yeah, it's it's really interesting.
- 1:06:21Speaker 17: The thing is I have dialysis right that and a
- 1:06:24Speaker 17: hernia from being pregnant, so my muscles are split down
- 1:06:27Speaker 17: the middle. So I have I have this space right
- 1:06:30Speaker 17: here and this I have like a lump because it's
- 1:06:32Speaker 17: my intestine. It's a hernia and it kind of looks
- 1:06:35Speaker 17: like an extra ab randomly above my belly button.
- 1:06:38Speaker 8: Everybody was like, that's the proof, like.
- 1:06:40Speaker 17: And then they were like, yes, proof because she's not
- 1:06:42Speaker 17: super muscly anywhere else but just her core and won
- 1:06:45Speaker 17: if you go back like genetically I have my dad
- 1:06:48Speaker 17: is super buff, like I'm damn here bill like my father,
- 1:06:50Speaker 17: And then I've always kind of had right, you can
- 1:06:54Speaker 17: really see it, and I've always had abs. And then
- 1:06:57Speaker 17: upon like just really training my core to like make
- 1:07:00Speaker 17: up for the fact that my muscles aren't connected and
- 1:07:02Speaker 17: I have to get my core together to be able
- 1:07:04Speaker 17: to do anything. That's the center of everything. I have
- 1:07:06Speaker 17: to go a little hard on that. I honestly thought
- 1:07:09Speaker 17: it was hilarious. And then people just being like is
- 1:07:11Speaker 17: that a man? And I was like, do you want
- 1:07:12Speaker 17: me to be? Would you like me to be?
- 1:07:15Speaker 14: But what I love is like you didn't get mad
- 1:07:17Speaker 14: and like go get online and start going crazy.
- 1:07:20Speaker 8: Man, it doesn't do anything.
- 1:07:22Speaker 17: I used to do that a lot, and then you
- 1:07:24Speaker 17: just realize.
- 1:07:24Speaker 8: Like there's crazy shit every day, like.
- 1:07:26Speaker 17: People talk about some news the next day. I remember
- 1:07:29Speaker 17: when the internet used to destroy me, Like it you
- 1:07:33Speaker 17: what I remember the other day, maybe last week, somebody
- 1:07:36Speaker 17: might have tweeted like, oh, like, y'all don't call Kilini
- 1:07:39Speaker 17: thirty and she has tattoos and someone said, oh, you
- 1:07:41Speaker 17: must be new here, and everybody was like yeah, because
- 1:07:43Speaker 17: twenty sixteen to twenty eighteen, that was it. Everybody was
- 1:07:49Speaker 17: calling me ugly, dirty, everything, And I used to be
- 1:07:52Speaker 17: what I was up about it, like consistently, and then
- 1:07:55Speaker 17: I just got to a point where I was like, well,
- 1:07:57Speaker 17: life kind of goes on, and like I know myself
- 1:07:59Speaker 17: and like there are people that know me and love
- 1:08:01Speaker 17: me deeply and care about me, and like are you
- 1:08:04Speaker 17: washed right?
- 1:08:05Speaker 8: Hello?
- 1:08:05Speaker 17: Yes, if you guys would like to come to my
- 1:08:07Speaker 17: house for a week and don'ble check in my shower
- 1:08:10Speaker 17: twice a day and the levels of aftercare like that's
- 1:08:13Speaker 17: on you guys. But you know, you know, you can't
- 1:08:15Speaker 17: prove those things to people. People who already want to
- 1:08:17Speaker 17: be like that are going to be like that regard
- 1:08:18Speaker 17: to anyway.
- 1:08:19Speaker 3: All right, will move, We got more with Kilani when
- 1:08:21Speaker 3: we come back. It's the Breakfast Club, Good morning, The
- 1:08:24Speaker 3: Breakfast Club, Good morning. Everybody is thej Envy Jess hilarious
- 1:08:31Speaker 3: Chelamane the guy we are the Breakfast Club is still
- 1:08:33Speaker 3: kicking it with Kilanie Charlama.
- 1:08:35Speaker 1: How did your record label, and I guess just the
- 1:08:37Speaker 1: industry period react to your advocacy for Palestine?
- 1:08:42Speaker 8: You know, I think I think we're in a.
- 1:08:46Speaker 17: Kind of a loop for so long of like what's
- 1:08:49Speaker 17: safe to speak about and what's not safe to speak about,
- 1:08:51Speaker 17: especially with the powers that be.
- 1:08:52Speaker 8: Being so powerful and not running so deep.
- 1:08:56Speaker 17: Obviously, my music came out, and obviously I'm super supportive,
- 1:08:58Speaker 17: so absolutely no problem from my record label. I have
- 1:09:01Speaker 17: experienced a lot of pushback. I've experienced a lot of loss.
- 1:09:04Speaker 17: I've experienced a lot of things that were promised and
- 1:09:06Speaker 17: set up for this rollout and album to happen that
- 1:09:08Speaker 17: were supposed to be a lot of first really yeah,
- 1:09:10Speaker 17: magazines and these things and those have brand deals and
- 1:09:14Speaker 17: opportunities that were sad to lose back at the end
- 1:09:16Speaker 17: of the day, like, I don't regret doing something.
- 1:09:19Speaker 8: That I can go to sleep.
- 1:09:20Speaker 17: At night, I can go to sleep knowing that, like
- 1:09:23Speaker 17: what I learned to be as an artist, I'm aligned
- 1:09:25Speaker 17: with because I grew up fully understanding the role of
- 1:09:28Speaker 17: art in liberation, and that's not to place myself in
- 1:09:31Speaker 17: alignment with you know, those artists and those revolutionary acts.
- 1:09:34Speaker 17: But that's to say, like I understood what it meant
- 1:09:37Speaker 17: to not be silent, even if I never put it
- 1:09:39Speaker 17: with the song in the video, even if just me
- 1:09:41Speaker 17: speaking out, I always knew what it meant to have
- 1:09:43Speaker 17: a platform and that responsibility in that way, and like
- 1:09:45Speaker 17: I can go to sleep knowing that, like I don't,
- 1:09:47Speaker 17: I can look myself in the mirror, you know, and
- 1:09:49Speaker 17: know that I did the right thing.
- 1:09:50Speaker 1: Do these magazines and stuff tell your people why they
- 1:09:53Speaker 1: say you always are advocacy of Palithon.
- 1:09:55Speaker 17: Those are really big buildings with a lot of people involved,
- 1:09:58Speaker 17: so it always makes its way back.
- 1:10:00Speaker 1: You also mentioned that your advocacy for Palesti caused a
- 1:10:03Speaker 1: lot of artists to ignore yourself collaboration.
- 1:10:05Speaker 17: So I was talking very fast on alive, very caffeinated
- 1:10:09Speaker 17: early in the morning, and I wasn't able to like
- 1:10:11Speaker 17: really elaborate on that. There are a lot of more
- 1:10:13Speaker 17: people involved on artists teams and just the artists. And
- 1:10:16Speaker 17: it also wasn't every single feature. There were certain people
- 1:10:18Speaker 17: who didn't get it back in time, or it wasn't
- 1:10:20Speaker 17: aligned with the timing of their album. I didn't mean
- 1:10:23Speaker 17: every single artist, but there were artists that I did
- 1:10:25Speaker 17: reach to when someone on the team was like, we
- 1:10:27Speaker 17: don't for her, or they said this, and then another
- 1:10:31Speaker 17: thing made its way to me, or like another like
- 1:10:33Speaker 17: things we know, we know, things travel, we know, people
- 1:10:37Speaker 17: have conversations, and those people have conversations, and people were
- 1:10:41Speaker 17: respectful enough to not, you know, text me back and
- 1:10:43Speaker 17: say girl, thank you, I'm Zionists. You know, things like that.
- 1:10:46Speaker 17: But I wasn't able to really elaborate that when I
- 1:10:49Speaker 17: and I would never I would never sit here and
- 1:10:52Speaker 17: name names because it's not about that. It's more about
- 1:10:55Speaker 17: how insidious the industries are and that we can be
- 1:10:58Speaker 17: so afraid to lose what we've built because so many
- 1:11:01Speaker 17: of us have come from nothing to where we have
- 1:11:03Speaker 17: this scarcity mindset of like I have to protect what
- 1:11:05Speaker 17: I have going on so hard that I will do
- 1:11:07Speaker 17: anything to stay in that world to protect it because
- 1:11:10Speaker 17: I have to keep feeding my family, I have to
- 1:11:11Speaker 17: keep you know, building my legacy.
- 1:11:13Speaker 8: I have to do that. I don't want to chance that.
- 1:11:15Speaker 17: And it's sad because that thing that does get dangled
- 1:11:17Speaker 17: in front of our faces when it comes to really
- 1:11:19Speaker 17: important political matters that people don't align with. It's sad,
- 1:11:22Speaker 17: it's unfortunate, and I don't I'm not mad at anyone.
- 1:11:24Speaker 17: I'm not holding anything against anyone. I was definitely on
- 1:11:27Speaker 17: that live like.
- 1:11:27Speaker 8: Yeah, and by the way, let me tell y'all about that.
- 1:11:29Speaker 17: I'm not but I definitely have those moments where I'm
- 1:11:31Speaker 17: like banked up. But typically I'm a longer thinker and
- 1:11:35Speaker 17: I have more to the thought.
- 1:11:36Speaker 8: And it was just unfortunate.
- 1:11:38Speaker 1: And you raised over a half a million dollars for
- 1:11:40Speaker 1: Gaza Sudan and the con Yeah.
- 1:11:44Speaker 4: Do you think money is the only way people can help?
- 1:11:45Speaker 8: Absolutely not.
- 1:11:46Speaker 17: I think in every single issue, the idea is that
- 1:11:49Speaker 17: you're supposed to listen to the requests of the people
- 1:11:52Speaker 17: at the core of the issue. You're supposed to abide
- 1:11:54Speaker 17: by the request of the most suppressed, and they have
- 1:11:56Speaker 17: asked us to literally speak like. That's the thing about
- 1:11:59Speaker 17: this whole Social media doesn't do anything. Speakon doesn't do anything,
- 1:12:02Speaker 17: awareness doesn't do anything. But those there are people in
- 1:12:05Speaker 17: Congo who are just saying make our stories heard. There
- 1:12:08Speaker 17: are people in Sudan who go just speak about us.
- 1:12:12Speaker 17: They're not talking about us on the news, They're not
- 1:12:14Speaker 17: talking about us in these magazines. They're not talking about
- 1:12:16Speaker 17: us anywhere, but you guys are. Gaza opened the door
- 1:12:20Speaker 17: for people to even be aware of Congo and Sudan
- 1:12:23Speaker 17: on a global scale because those issues have preceded this genocide.
- 1:12:27Speaker 17: Those genocides have been have been happening, those famines that
- 1:12:30Speaker 17: extremely like displacement, those have already been existing. And Gaza
- 1:12:34Speaker 17: has opened up the world to Haiti, to Yemen, to
- 1:12:38Speaker 17: all of these places that all this is going on.
- 1:12:40Speaker 17: So the least we can do is share things here
- 1:12:43Speaker 17: and there. And you don't have to have money, but
- 1:12:45Speaker 17: if you do, you should put it where your mouth.
- 1:12:47Speaker 8: Is, for sure. I was gonna ask absolutely, Yeah.
- 1:12:49Speaker 14: You are a West Coast girl, and even girl, what
- 1:12:53Speaker 14: do you think about Ken?
- 1:12:55Speaker 10: I just want to.
- 1:12:59Speaker 4: Who for Drake?
- 1:13:01Speaker 17: I haven't publicly rooted for anyone, but have you not
- 1:13:03Speaker 17: seen me at the club? Oh you can hear me
- 1:13:07Speaker 17: through the Soundproof story. I very much respect both artists.
- 1:13:16Speaker 17: Drake actually named my album it was good until it wasn't.
- 1:13:19Speaker 17: He showed me a lot of love over time, like
- 1:13:20Speaker 17: publicly privately so as Kendrick like he did. You were
- 1:13:24Speaker 17: having a conversation and I told him what I wanted
- 1:13:26Speaker 17: to name it, and then he was like, no, what's
- 1:13:27Speaker 17: going on in life? And I told him and he
- 1:13:29Speaker 17: was like, and I was like, yeah, I was. Honestly,
- 1:13:30Speaker 17: it was good until it wasn't. He was like, if
- 1:13:32Speaker 17: you don't use it as your album title, I am,
- 1:13:34Speaker 17: And I.
- 1:13:34Speaker 8: Was like, okay, right, you're right. It is a very
- 1:13:37Speaker 8: Drake album title.
- 1:13:39Speaker 17: I think it's it came down to if I'm on
- 1:13:42Speaker 17: some West coach, I'm from the West, Like I know,
- 1:13:44Speaker 17: I know how important this unity is of all of us,
- 1:13:47Speaker 17: and I know how imperative this representation of us is.
- 1:13:50Speaker 8: Like I love Kendrick.
- 1:13:51Speaker 17: That's the only artist I've ever stood in the line
- 1:13:53Speaker 17: and like waiting to get something signed for when I
- 1:13:55Speaker 17: was in high school, like soundtrack to my life. So
- 1:13:58Speaker 17: I have no like personal entrances in anything.
- 1:14:02Speaker 8: I'm just as a.
- 1:14:02Speaker 17: Fan of the music West, just musically, just music. I mean,
- 1:14:11Speaker 17: we have to respect what we what we saw.
- 1:14:14Speaker 4: As base people.
- 1:14:15Speaker 8: Ever since though, oh my god, hilarious.
- 1:14:17Speaker 4: So listen when you sing, not like because it's so catchy.
- 1:14:20Speaker 17: I've had moments where I was like in the club
- 1:14:22Speaker 17: and I've seen that it's a club thing, and I
- 1:14:24Speaker 17: was like, damn, this is crazy. But I also remember
- 1:14:26Speaker 17: every single big disc track in history being able to
- 1:14:29Speaker 17: be played for massive groups of people gathering and it
- 1:14:33Speaker 17: being a thing that everybody is like I was too
- 1:14:35Speaker 17: young for like the Ether era, but like everybody talks
- 1:14:38Speaker 17: about it and they're like this was crazy.
- 1:14:40Speaker 4: Like this is in the club every night, though wasn't
- 1:14:42Speaker 4: in the club.
- 1:14:43Speaker 8: I mean back to Back was in the club.
- 1:14:45Speaker 4: Back to Back was in the club.
- 1:14:46Speaker 17: Yeah, So it's eras it's moments. Honestly, I'm not in
- 1:14:49Speaker 17: hip hop, so I can't speak to the sport of it,
- 1:14:52Speaker 17: but like it's a sport.
- 1:14:53Speaker 4: I guess you have a tech DrAk Like yo, may
- 1:14:55Speaker 4: you did your think nothing to be ashamed about. It
- 1:14:56Speaker 4: was all good.
- 1:14:57Speaker 9: No.
- 1:14:57Speaker 17: I feel like he has real people around him will
- 1:14:59Speaker 17: hold the down, and I feel like it's taken that
- 1:15:01Speaker 17: moment to be like, hey, by the way, let me
- 1:15:06Speaker 17: make sure you know I support you.
- 1:15:07Speaker 8: Yeah, he's got his folks.
- 1:15:09Speaker 4: Damn you mentioned a tour, are doing a crash.
- 1:15:14Speaker 8: Absolutely.
- 1:15:15Speaker 17: I made this album to tours specifically, Like there was
- 1:15:18Speaker 17: so many sounds where I was like, this is gonna
- 1:15:20Speaker 17: be so fun to saying it's gonna be so fun
- 1:15:22Speaker 17: to dance to. It's gonna be so fun to play
- 1:15:24Speaker 17: with a band, so absolutely well, I think for me,
- 1:15:27Speaker 17: touring is the epicenter of my like my career, to
- 1:15:30Speaker 17: the point where sometimes you don't even see you can't
- 1:15:32Speaker 17: even really tell what's going on with the music streaming
- 1:15:34Speaker 17: and charting wise, people are like, what, And then you
- 1:15:36Speaker 17: come to the tour and it's these huge venues and
- 1:15:38Speaker 17: people are like, I actually had no idea because when
- 1:15:41Speaker 17: I look at how it's doing over there, and it's
- 1:15:43Speaker 17: just a classic example for me of like impact versus
- 1:15:47Speaker 17: you know, numbers, and my shows are huge. My shows
- 1:15:50Speaker 17: are a blast. Everybody has a great time, everybody feels safe,
- 1:15:53Speaker 17: everybody has fun.
- 1:15:54Speaker 8: Like that is what's important to me. So we're gonna
- 1:15:56Speaker 8: do it again, for.
- 1:15:57Speaker 14: Sure, that's what's up, because by then I would hit

- 1:17:44Speaker 4: You see what happens when you retired.
- 1:17:46Speaker 13: Your time, I had plenty of time to do a
- 1:17:48Speaker 13: lot of stuff.
- 1:17:49Speaker 10: So this is this is one of two books that
- 1:17:52Speaker 10: I'll be doing.
- 1:17:52Speaker 9: It's gonna be doing a series, but for right now,
- 1:17:55Speaker 9: this is this has one hundred questions for people to
- 1:18:00Speaker 9: document their experience, their love and their knowledge.
- 1:18:04Speaker 10: Of hip hop. So their prompt questions I feel.
- 1:18:08Speaker 9: I went to the fiftieth anniversary of Hip Hop and
- 1:18:11Speaker 9: Yankee Stadium and I saw people, They're all ages with
- 1:18:15Speaker 9: their hip hop gear from seventy to fifteen. It looked
- 1:18:19Speaker 9: like everybody, And I said, each one of those people
- 1:18:22Speaker 9: have a story.
- 1:18:23Speaker 10: About what hip hop means to them.
- 1:18:25Speaker 9: Yeah, of course, and I didn't see anything on Amazon
- 1:18:27Speaker 9: that has prompt questions that invite people to tell their stories.
- 1:18:31Speaker 10: So I said, okay, I.
- 1:18:32Speaker 9: Invited my brother Djcipio Charlemagne. You know how Djcipio he
- 1:18:38Speaker 9: was born and raised in New York City and then
- 1:18:41Speaker 9: moved to South Carolina and he's killing it down there,
- 1:18:45Speaker 9: and I invite him.
- 1:18:46Speaker 10: I said, come and help.
- 1:18:47Speaker 9: Me get these questions together so we can get people
- 1:18:49Speaker 9: to tell their personal journey about hip hop. I added
- 1:18:53Speaker 9: fifty trivia questions and answers, and then fifty quotes from
- 1:18:59Speaker 9: the biggest ledge and hip hop that are positive and timeless.
- 1:19:03Speaker 9: So twenty years from now, you can go back and
- 1:19:05Speaker 9: find a quote that's gonna still resonate with you. And
- 1:19:08Speaker 9: then my brother and I we documented. We answered the
- 1:19:13Speaker 9: very questions that we're asking of others, so in doing so,
- 1:19:17Speaker 9: we're telling our story as well.
- 1:19:21Speaker 10: And then to top it off, if.
- 1:19:22Speaker 9: We mentioned a song or a point in history that
- 1:19:26Speaker 9: was very important to us, we have a q R
- 1:19:28Speaker 9: code that you could put your phone right up to
- 1:19:30Speaker 9: the book and you're there, so it's interactive. If I
- 1:19:34Speaker 9: talk about salt and pepper and how much a particular
- 1:19:36Speaker 9: song met to the culture.
- 1:19:38Speaker 10: Salt and Pepper song is going to be there.
- 1:19:40Speaker 9: Wow, And so we kind of do the work for
- 1:19:42Speaker 9: people who are trying to learn about hip hop and
- 1:19:45Speaker 9: who love hip hop.
- 1:19:46Speaker 10: So we're very proud.
- 1:19:48Speaker 9: I'm very proud of it. Yes, it was a long
- 1:19:51Speaker 9: hard time coming. But I'm sitting on the Breakfast club
- 1:19:55Speaker 9: right now. I don't even know what.
- 1:19:56Speaker 10: To do with myself.
- 1:19:57Speaker 3: I'm so great, Well, you said eighteen years So yes,
- 1:20:00Speaker 3: into a bunch of celebrities, a bunch of guests, a
- 1:20:02Speaker 3: bunch of family members who are some of your favorites.
- 1:20:05Speaker 3: And what dog Snoop Snoop Dogg smoke with you?
- 1:20:10Speaker 10: He was gonna offer me a nip? He said, he
- 1:20:12Speaker 10: would give me a nip.
- 1:20:13Speaker 4: May melon the breakfast.
- 1:20:16Speaker 9: You ask him, So you're gonna give missipp Missa a nip?
- 1:20:19Speaker 10: He said, yeah, I'll give her.
- 1:20:22Speaker 9: Okay, every time Snoop Dogg and Whiskeyly forgot off the elevator,
- 1:20:29Speaker 9: all you see is a puff of smoke and then
- 1:20:31Speaker 9: they would just appear. So I love Snoop Dogg, but
- 1:20:34Speaker 9: as so many other artists and legends that I love
- 1:20:38Speaker 9: so much, And so that I go into more detail
- 1:20:42Speaker 9: in hip.
- 1:20:42Speaker 10: Hop time capsule.
- 1:20:43Speaker 9: The next chapter where I have all of my pictures
- 1:20:46Speaker 9: with them and I tell personal stories about each of them.
- 1:20:50Speaker 9: So you're gonna find some stories in this one, But
- 1:20:53Speaker 9: in the next book, it's a more detailed story of
- 1:20:56Speaker 9: our bond and the mutual respect and love that we
- 1:21:00Speaker 9: for each other. As a matter of fact, when you
- 1:21:01Speaker 9: see the pictures, you can tell that there's a real
- 1:21:04Speaker 9: bond there. I talk about d m X and how
- 1:21:07Speaker 9: he came on his birthday and uh, and he.
- 1:21:11Speaker 10: Was sipping some hennessye yeah, and he he he came over.
- 1:21:16Speaker 9: He said, Auntie, anytime you hear my name, I want
- 1:21:18Speaker 9: you to pray for me. And I said that I would.
- 1:21:20Speaker 9: Anytime you hear my name see my face.
- 1:21:23Speaker 10: So I said, I will do that.
- 1:21:25Speaker 8: Uh.
- 1:21:26Speaker 10: So he left about an hour.
- 1:21:27Speaker 9: About a half an hour later, I go down to lunch.
- 1:21:30Speaker 9: DMX is down there by the hot dog stand.
- 1:21:32Speaker 4: You want a hot dog?
- 1:21:34Speaker 10: He's offering people hot dogs, and.
- 1:21:35Speaker 9: People are like what DMX was buying people hot dogs?
- 1:21:39Speaker 4: So I remember, yeah, he was up. I was right.
- 1:21:48Speaker 9: So so I have great stories. I have some stories
- 1:21:51Speaker 9: in here, but the main focus of this book is
- 1:21:54Speaker 9: for people to document their own journey you know. I
- 1:21:56Speaker 9: mean at a time when you know other people can
- 1:22:00Speaker 9: lay claim to certain aspects of hip hop. I just
- 1:22:04Speaker 9: wanted to be documented what people have gone through, what
- 1:22:06Speaker 9: it means to them. And you're gonna learn a whole
- 1:22:09Speaker 9: lot about hip hop in the intim So.
- 1:22:12Speaker 1: Missus Nito one of those people who reminds you that
- 1:22:14Speaker 1: whatever you're doing, just be the best at it.
- 1:22:17Speaker 4: That's right.
- 1:22:18Speaker 9: Be the best at it, that's right. I love you
- 1:22:20Speaker 9: know what doctor King said it. Even if you're a
- 1:22:22Speaker 9: street sweeper, you know, be the best at it. You know,
- 1:22:25Speaker 9: do it, do it right, be proud of what you do.
- 1:22:28Speaker 9: So when I was tired, I was looking for a purpose.
- 1:22:31Speaker 9: I'm like, God, I need something to focus on. And
- 1:22:34Speaker 9: it was that experience at the Hip Hop fiftieth anniversary,
- 1:22:39Speaker 9: And it came to me like that that all of
- 1:22:42Speaker 9: those people, those hundreds of thousands of people sitting in
- 1:22:44Speaker 9: those seats, have a story why they are there. And
- 1:22:49Speaker 9: so hip Hop Time Capsule document your personal journey, right,
- 1:22:53Speaker 9: that was the that was the impetus to do the books.
- 1:22:56Speaker 3: Now you have a strong bomb with a comedian that
- 1:22:59Speaker 3: people might not know God, a big name, real local.
- 1:23:07Speaker 4: Why are you playing around.
- 1:23:11Speaker 10: There was Donell.
- 1:23:13Speaker 4: I love Donall. He took you to the lake and.
- 1:23:16Speaker 10: All of Donell took me to the lake.
