• 3:05
  Speaker 4: I don't want to do this no more.
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: What is it that you know?
• 3:07
  Speaker 7: Because you started very young, we watched you little girl
• 3:11
  Speaker 7: baby doing your thing.
• 3:13
  Speaker 6: Dad plays a role in it.
• 3:14
  Speaker 5: It's like, I don't think people be taking in account
• 3:18
  Speaker 5: how much time I put into this game. So yeah,
• 3:22
  Speaker 5: like the time is like staying inspired.
• 3:28
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I don't I don't know. Yeah, I don't know.
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: I saw you tell when I watched your interview with Adeska,
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: and I thought that first of all, I thought she
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: was the perfect person to do the interview because it
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: was such a mom conversation. I don't have kids yet,
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: but I saw you say that you did this for Alyssa,
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: and it was kind of the battle internally of like
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: your baby was planned, Alyssa wanted to have a baby,
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: but Lotto is still trying to figure out how am
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: I gonna how my career gonna.
• 3:51
  Speaker 5: Be, how that's gonna fit into my career. Yeah, for sure. Yeah,
• 3:54
  Speaker 5: I felt selfish a lot of a lot of times
• 3:57
  Speaker 5: for choosing to do that, and it's is not even
• 4:00
  Speaker 5: fair to me to feel selfish. But I was literally
• 4:04
  Speaker 5: just saying in the car, like doing this so young
• 4:07
  Speaker 5: and like having a dad that came from a different generation,
• 4:10
  Speaker 5: like the non abusive Joe Jackson. Yeah, I gotta put
• 4:17
  Speaker 5: that out there. It just had me like wired, and
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: the it just had me wired differently. So I looked
• 4:22
  Speaker 5: at it like, damn, I'm being selfish right now. But yeah,
• 4:28
  Speaker 5: I did that, though, regret.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: Me because a lot of times with postpart regret, I'm.
• 4:34
  Speaker 6: So happy I had my girl. I'm so happy.
• 4:37
  Speaker 5: And then God just like I feel so annointed, like
• 4:40
  Speaker 5: he gave me what I wonted, like he he gave
• 4:43
  Speaker 5: me what I wonted. Towards the end of my pregnancy,
• 4:45
  Speaker 5: I kept saying, like, you know what, God, I know
• 4:49
  Speaker 5: you're gonna give me what I need.
• 4:52
  Speaker 6: So I kind of just started like unconvincing myself that
• 4:56
  Speaker 6: it was a girl.
• 4:57
  Speaker 5: I was like, it's it is what it is, whatever
• 4:59
  Speaker 5: you give me, I know that what I needed. But
• 5:01
  Speaker 5: he gave me what I wanted. And I know that
• 5:04
  Speaker 5: was him speaking to me in a different way.
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: Did she make you softer? She disarms you, you're not?
• 5:09
  Speaker 6: Yeah?
• 5:10
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and she just give me like a greater purpose,
• 5:13
  Speaker 5: Like I feel like I was praying or before I
• 5:17
  Speaker 5: got pregnant, I was praying for like a new drive
• 5:22
  Speaker 5: in life, like something to make me want to go
• 5:24
  Speaker 5: hard again, not just basically just like yeah, just motivation.
• 5:28
  Speaker 5: And and I got my baby. And then I got
• 5:33
  Speaker 5: my baby girl.
• 5:35
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: Now you mentioned your dad and you said he wasn't
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: Joe Jackson. Of course we seen your dad grow up
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: with you from the Rap Game Show. Do you have
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: a song on your album that talks about your dad?
• 5:47
  Speaker 6: Right now?
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: Break down that song a little bit, because I'm on
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: both sides.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: What you were your dad?
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: Right after you listen to the song, Well play the
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: song in a second. The reason I said I'm on
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: both sides is is your dad, from what I saw,
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: gave up a lot of his life to make sure
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: his baby girl was there right. And he gave up
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: his life and his career to make sure his daughter
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: had everything that she wanted. But then when his daughter
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: got everything, you're like a dad, how.
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: Far this is?
• 6:12
  Speaker 6: That's when it came across.
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: That's what I took a little bit.
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: I took it as like you, you grew into like
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: your dad raised you to be very successful and very driven,
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: but there were things that you wanted from him that
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: he might not have known he wasn't giving you. And
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: once you got older and you found yourself, you built
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: your own world to get that, and he kind of
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: doesn't understand that what's yours is not always his. That's
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: how I took it.
• 6:32
  Speaker 5: That's what I meant in the song. And I said,
• 6:34
  Speaker 5: but my blessings ain't your blessings. You confuse the love
• 6:37
  Speaker 5: with transgression and that she's sold a person. Yeah, okay,
• 6:42
  Speaker 5: well let me clear that because that was that was
• 6:44
  Speaker 5: not my.
• 6:44
  Speaker 4: I'm talking about the penmanship through the bars. Yeah, yeah, like.
• 6:47
  Speaker 5: Pushing that pine. I always to a real pen push suit. Yeah.
• 6:52
  Speaker 6: No, I love my daddy so much.
• 6:53
  Speaker 5: I made that song when we still hadn't spoken yet,
• 6:57
  Speaker 5: and we hadn't spoken over six years. So but I
• 7:01
  Speaker 5: was in a place of like forgiveness when I wrote
• 7:06
  Speaker 5: that song for him and myself. So I wasn't I don't.
• 7:11
  Speaker 5: I didn't look at it like a like a dish
• 7:13
  Speaker 5: to him or anything like that. It was more so
• 7:15
  Speaker 5: me just uh yeah, like kind of using it as therapy.
• 7:20
  Speaker 5: And ye'ah was forgiving him and not bashing bashing him
• 7:24
  Speaker 5: more so just understanding him. Now that I'm a parent,
• 7:26
  Speaker 5: I'm like, dang, I got one on the way now,
• 7:29
  Speaker 5: and I'm gonna make some mistakes myself.
• 7:31
  Speaker 6: So and I and I look back like, dang, his mistakes.
• 7:35
  Speaker 5: Wasn't even really like that deep like as an adult
• 7:38
  Speaker 5: and as an as a parent, I'm like, people is human,
• 7:41
  Speaker 5: and you know, I'm not gonna be the perfect parent either.
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: So how did y'all get that or how did y'all
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: get to the point where y'all weren't speaking?
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: And then how did y'all the video?
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: You know, I was on the video like who in there?
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: But it seemed like he he posted it just happy,
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: but it made new so crazy.
• 8:00
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I love my daddy to death. And yeah, that
• 8:03
  Speaker 5: was the second time I had been around my daddy.
• 8:05
  Speaker 6: He said. I knew he wasn't supposed to be posting
• 8:07
  Speaker 6: nothing from that back show.
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: But how do y'all get to the point where you
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: weren't talking like that? Because you were such a daddy's
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: girl from what we see.
• 8:14
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I was such a I grew up such
• 8:16
  Speaker 5: a daddy's girl. I just I don't know, I just
• 8:20
  Speaker 5: started growing myself. I started growing myself and just seeing
• 8:23
  Speaker 5: things in life and our relationship differently my sister and
• 8:29
  Speaker 5: my man was always in my ear, like you need
• 8:31
  Speaker 5: to you need to talk to your daddy. You need
• 8:33
  Speaker 5: to talk to your daddy. And the more I prayed
• 8:36
  Speaker 5: on it, the more I felt like a calling to
• 8:38
  Speaker 5: have that conversation with him and my sister.
• 8:41
  Speaker 6: My sister kept in contact with my daddy.
• 8:44
  Speaker 5: So I would I would tell her like, I think
• 8:47
  Speaker 5: I'm getting ready to speak them. I think I'm getting
• 8:49
  Speaker 5: ready to speak them. And then finally we just had
• 8:51
  Speaker 5: the conversation at my sister house and it was tears.
• 8:54
  Speaker 5: And the crazy thing about it when we first had
• 8:56
  Speaker 5: that first first we saw each other over six years.
• 8:59
  Speaker 5: We had a coming station for the first time over
• 9:01
  Speaker 5: six years, and I told him I was pregnant in
• 9:04
  Speaker 5: the same conversation. So it's very emotional.
• 9:07
  Speaker 6: Wow.
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: You know what people don't understand is when a dad
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: loses their daughter.
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's grief.
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, when I mean lose their daughter, it's like, because
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: you grow up. But I got a twenty four year
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: old and you know, she's she's getting engaged, but that's
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: still my baby. I look at her, but she looks
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: at it like, no, Dad, I got a job, I'm working,
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: I got my own but I still away.
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: Every time, like it hurts. Yeah, but that's my little
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: baby girl.
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so your dad would feel I'm sure you when
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: you get when you're when your your daughter gets a little older,
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: you start feeling that to you.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: This is what my dad was going.
• 9:35
  Speaker 5: Yeah, he explained like those things to me, and I
• 9:38
  Speaker 5: kind of put it into perspective because I had one
• 9:39
  Speaker 5: on the way at that time. So I was like, dang,
• 9:42
  Speaker 5: I apologize for like blocking you out of my life.
• 9:47
  Speaker 5: And I know to me it might not have been
• 9:49
  Speaker 5: that deep, but now I understand, like that was a
• 9:52
  Speaker 5: very deep cut for him to not.
• 9:55
  Speaker 6: Have his baby girl in his life after all those years.
• 9:57
  Speaker 5: So it's gonna pu It's crazy how them babies bring
• 10:02
  Speaker 5: back together, Like seeing at my baby shower, just seeing
• 10:05
  Speaker 5: the family come together.
• 10:07
  Speaker 6: I'm like, dang, Like family, family is so important.
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: Was gonna push you off? Was really gonna push you off?
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: As when he has your your daughter and the things
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: that you couldn't do with him.
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: If that was me, you would.
• 10:21
  Speaker 5: Have I already know because he's such a soft g
• 10:26
  Speaker 5: pop that's what he wanted to be called. He's such
• 10:27
  Speaker 5: a soft pop. But yeah, he wanted to soft for me.
• 10:30
  Speaker 5: That was Joe Jackson.
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: Jackson with me.
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: Now this is a new era of Lotto. I was
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: reading someone Rolling Stone. They called this album romantic rap,
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: and I feel like that was like such a perfect explanation.
• 10:44
  Speaker 5: But what would you title this era of Lotto? I
• 10:48
  Speaker 5: thought big Mama was the title. I thought Big Mama
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: was the title. It just feel like, literally, I'm becoming
• 10:55
  Speaker 5: a mama. I'm stepping into like my own this is
• 10:59
  Speaker 5: who I am, Mama. Like I started it off with
• 11:02
  Speaker 5: I'm gonna get money girl, Like I'm kind of just
• 11:04
  Speaker 5: telling you why where I am in life at the moment,
• 11:08
  Speaker 5: and then like who I am to as a step
• 11:12
  Speaker 5: into womanhood and motherhood and all the things.
• 11:16
  Speaker 4: I love that because women can relate to that.
• 11:19
  Speaker 7: You know, at some point we you know, we outside
• 11:22
  Speaker 7: and everything, but we want to grow up and we
• 11:23
  Speaker 7: want to you know, because music is very influential, you know,
• 11:26
  Speaker 7: especially the rap girl.
• 11:28
  Speaker 6: Come on, y'all.
• 11:29
  Speaker 7: You know, I know we out here, we drinking, we porn.
• 11:30
  Speaker 7: But I love that we get to see another side
• 11:33
  Speaker 7: a lot of like yet.
• 11:35
  Speaker 4: Grown, it's time to grow up.
• 11:36
  Speaker 6: I was trying to.
• 11:36
  Speaker 5: I was trying to do that, but I feel like
• 11:38
  Speaker 5: they keep coming across as romantic.
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: I think you get you get both sides of it.
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: Like like we were talking to me and some of
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: the girl producers here. We were talking about because a
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: lot of us are in that era where it's like
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: we still big Mama, were pulling up. I mean, we
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: don't all have kids, but more so like we do
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: for ourselves or part of it. We established we successful.
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: But at the same time, my me and my me
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: and my men, like yeah, and family and now you're
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: learning because it's wrong with that and nothing. But do
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: you feel like the fact that you said was wrong
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: with that. I was gonna say. When you first announced,
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: even like the pregnancy and different things, you got pushed
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: back because people were like, you're big mama, no kids
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: before marriage?
• 12:19
  Speaker 5: Oh my gosh. First of all, people like damn, can
• 12:22
  Speaker 5: I grow up? It's like, dang, can I just evolve?
• 12:26

• 12:38
  Speaker 5: was in that same time, Like it just came out,
• 12:41
  Speaker 5: but I was in that same time. And it's like
• 12:43
  Speaker 5: a lot can happen in two years, a lot can
• 12:45
  Speaker 5: happen in two days, right, you know. But it's this
• 12:48
  Speaker 5: misconception that I that I was like anti kids and stuff.
• 12:52
  Speaker 6: I was never anti kids.
• 12:53
  Speaker 5: You can also pull up interviews and like whatever about

  Speaker 7: not gonna look at you to say, as Arab girl,
• 13:37
  Speaker 7: settle down and have a family. You got the man,
• 13:39
  Speaker 7: the baby, the success.
• 13:41
  Speaker 5: But I'm always used to being the like the trendsetter,
• 13:45
  Speaker 5: like the one that step out the box first. Cause
• 13:47
  Speaker 5: like when I first started singing again. First of all,
• 13:51
  Speaker 5: my first song I ever went viral for at thirteen
• 13:53
  Speaker 5: years old, crushed, I was singing. But when I first
• 13:55
  Speaker 5: started singing again, it was like pushback from that. Then
• 13:57
  Speaker 5: I get a man. It's like you you in love.
• 14:02
  Speaker 5: Like I'm so used to being the one that pushed
• 14:04
  Speaker 5: the agenda first. So I don't I don't care, like
• 14:06
  Speaker 5: I wear that hat confidently.
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: Can we can we talk about the my me and
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: my man situation because for a long time, y'all been
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: spinning us with like the little subdule jabs. But now
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: we're seeing we know that you and twenty one Savage
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: are together, and but I want to know, right, like
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: when you're deciding to now be a lot more public
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: about things like you in twenty one Savage dating? Why now?
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: Like you've been you you were blessed to be private
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: for a long time till they caught youalling them that vacation?
• 14:38
  Speaker 5: What else say? I had addressed that on the album too.
• 14:41
  Speaker 5: It's like what people when you don't give or give
• 14:44
  Speaker 5: it to them, just like raw, they they just they
• 14:48
  Speaker 5: go round with all type of narratives and be peaking
• 14:52
  Speaker 5: in your business literally like damn vacation.
• 14:55
  Speaker 6: Yeah, why now? I think? I think, I don't know.
• 15:02
  Speaker 5: I feel like I still am private to a certain point,
• 15:04
  Speaker 5: but it's like to a certain extent, but I feel
• 15:06
  Speaker 5: like once you start reaching different milestones in life.
• 15:10
  Speaker 6: You can only be so private. You know what I'm saying.
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: I got a baby, I can only be so private.
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: But and it probably feels good you want to share it?
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah I do.
• 15:20
  Speaker 6: I do.
• 15:20
  Speaker 5: I'm more comfortable sharing it like in the music because
• 15:24
  Speaker 5: I'm in that booth alone and I can just speak freely.
• 15:27
  Speaker 7: But and you're an artist, like, yeah, that's what I'm
• 15:29
  Speaker 7: supposed to do, you know what I'm saying.
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: So, yeah, you never and you're never afraid to address anything.
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: You will address something in a minute in the music.
• 15:44
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And I think that that's very smart that you
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: do it that way as well.
• 15:48
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 15:49
  Speaker 5: I feel like in the music, I'm able to convey
• 15:53
  Speaker 5: my message with thoughts. I can sit there and write
• 15:56
  Speaker 5: exactly how I'm feeling and be intentional.
• 16:01
  Speaker 4: You in your element, like, yeah, I mean my elements.
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's why does anything bother you?
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: Though?
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: Like there's something certain that somebody says bother you anything?
• 16:11
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I wouldn't be talking about it in the music
• 16:12
  Speaker 5: if it didn't bother you, honey, Yeah.
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: Get out of my face. You can come in talking
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: about the conversation that you like, you and Glow are
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: going off and addressing a lot of the things. So
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: has that been something that has bothered you? I mean,
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: and that's why you put it into music or where
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: do you live with that?
• 16:29
  Speaker 6: Now? For sure?
• 16:30
  Speaker 5: I think even if it's like I dressed things that
• 16:32
  Speaker 5: bothered me in the music, But even if it's not
• 16:35
  Speaker 5: necessarily bothering me. But that's just what's happening in my
• 16:38
  Speaker 5: life at the moment. I talk about it in the music.
• 16:41
  Speaker 5: That's why I don't understand why I get all these
• 16:43
  Speaker 5: like oh, right, like who wrote it?
• 16:47
  Speaker 6: And I don't write like it's.
• 16:50
  Speaker 5: Like you can you can hear that the internet ain't real, like.
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: W that you that Drake wrote?
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: Like when did they start saying, yeah, how did that
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: come out?
• 17:04
  Speaker 6: As the people?
• 17:05
  Speaker 5: But that's why I said, so if they think Crodi
• 17:07
  Speaker 5: wrote it, that's a compliment, like I'm getting compared to
• 17:11
  Speaker 5: the gold.
• 17:12
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: A lot of times I feel like it's it's it's
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: just fans because like there will be certain like melodies
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: or flows. I know, I saw Joe Budden and I
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: saw you put your your righting of your song and
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: added he has said that how sat sounds like a
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: Drake flow, and that's what people say. They always do
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: that with her, like, oh, this sounds like a flow
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: or reference, so Drake must have wrote it.
• 17:33
  Speaker 5: I mean I listened, I listened to Drake. I don't
• 17:36
  Speaker 5: really know what to say, right, that's a compliment.
• 17:40
  Speaker 6: I don't know. I feel like I addressed it like I.
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: Don't clear you write all your own ship.
• 17:44
  Speaker 7: Yeah yeah, Like I feel like question, I feel like
• 17:51
  Speaker 7: why is that even a conversation When y'all saw me
• 17:53
  Speaker 7: doing this lot, like okay, not lie, but on television
• 17:56
  Speaker 7: as a kid, it's like.
• 17:57
  Speaker 5: I'm one of the very few females that y'all saw
• 18:01
  Speaker 5: the organic come up. So it's like, why do I
• 18:03
  Speaker 5: even get But people don't always have something to say?
• 18:07
  Speaker 5: Like I said, then it ain't real. So it's like
• 18:09
  Speaker 5: all I can keep doing is addressing this shit and
• 18:11
  Speaker 5: the music, and people gonna find something new to talk
• 18:14
  Speaker 5: about every day. And that's why I be private. That's
• 18:17
  Speaker 5: why I be private, because like you can't please people, and.
• 18:22
  Speaker 7: I think that's what it is because you are quiet,
• 18:26
  Speaker 7: like you'll put it, you'll get in the booth and
• 18:29
  Speaker 7: put it on you know, paper. But because you are quiet,
• 18:33
  Speaker 7: people run with whatever. That gives people room to make
• 18:36
  Speaker 7: shut up.
• 18:36
  Speaker 6: What they don't know they make up Oh my mama. Yeah,
• 18:40
  Speaker 6: but I don't know.
• 18:42
  Speaker 5: I feel like you gonna if you address everything, like
• 18:45
  Speaker 5: you gonna start working yourself into a hole that you
• 18:48
  Speaker 5: can't get out of, you know what I'm saying. So
• 18:50
  Speaker 5: it's like I be reading hell of shit about my
• 18:52
  Speaker 5: life that ain't true. What I look like addressing every
• 18:56
  Speaker 5: single thing that I see is like, bro, I'm not
• 19:00
  Speaker 5: that's not how I see my life. Is like, I
• 19:01
  Speaker 5: don't I'm not gonna waste my energy ship like that.
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: Was it difficult to go from I don't want to
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: say kitty, but the kitty error.
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: Because it's like grow And I was like, that's.
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: Always gonna be difficult to have people with a little
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: differently with difficult for sure.
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: What was the hardest part about that?
• 19:20
  Speaker 5: More so, it wasn't even difficult to me. It was
• 19:23
  Speaker 5: more so like people in my ear like telling me,
• 19:26
  Speaker 5: like I remember my ex boyfriend was like this is
• 19:30
  Speaker 5: like wait wait, wait, wait wait.
• 19:37
  Speaker 6: Please. He was like, you only got so long.
• 19:46
  Speaker 5: If you don't pop off with him this time frame,
• 19:49
  Speaker 5: you're never gonna be looked at as a real artist.
• 19:53
  Speaker 5: That motherfucker probably broke stale now and I'm I'm the
• 19:55
  Speaker 5: real artist, damn. But yeah, I think it was myself,
• 20:01
  Speaker 5: just like people in my ear and in my head
• 20:03
  Speaker 5: telling me like, oh, kids starts. It's very difficult for
• 20:06
  Speaker 5: a kids start to be looked at as a you know,
• 20:09
  Speaker 5: serious artist that or not, But I just lived my life.
• 20:12
  Speaker 6: I didn't really have.
• 20:13
  Speaker 5: No plan, like, oh, then I gotta do this strategically,
• 20:17
  Speaker 5: and then we got to start cussing at this time,
• 20:20
  Speaker 5: and then we got to start like No, I just
• 20:21
  Speaker 5: kind of just grew up.
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: You've been very open with a lot of the growth
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: in the moments too, like you've log in, we see
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: you on stream the ice By situation when y'all were
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: in y'all moment, and then y'all literally republic about the
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: reconciliation and all those things. Like I think people get
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: a chance to grow with you and learn with you,
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: and that's why we become like fans.
• 20:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but why did y'all squash that one? Like because
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: that could have went off ever, but y'all decided to
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: to squash it and.
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: Deal with record. I thought that was dope.
• 20:48
  Speaker 6: Why. I just I don't know.
• 20:53
  Speaker 5: I'm like growing up. I'm just growing up, and I
• 20:55
  Speaker 5: just be like, shit, don't be that deep.
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: What was that conversation like this to ask you why
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: did you decide?
• 21:02
  Speaker 6: Why did?
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: I mean, because it's not even because squash y'all get
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: together and do a song together. I think it's different
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: when your brain your face or something. I think that
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: was the most mature thing I had seen in a while, like, oh,
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: this is a real thing.
• 21:21
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it just it just wasn't that deep. So her
• 21:28
  Speaker 5: manager had called my manager and was like, uh, she's
• 21:32
  Speaker 5: trying to squash.
• 21:33
  Speaker 6: It, like they want she want to do music. And
• 21:35
  Speaker 6: I was like, you know what.
• 21:36
  Speaker 5: Actually I am open to that. I love that, especially
• 21:42
  Speaker 5: when it's it's something that was like for no reason anyways,
• 21:45
  Speaker 5: Like that ship was one of them times where I
• 21:47
  Speaker 5: let like Twitter and like just like noise get in
• 21:55
  Speaker 5: my head. And probably she could say saying I can't
• 21:57
  Speaker 5: speak to her, but I'm guessing that's the same for
• 21:59
  Speaker 5: her and both of us.
• 22:02
  Speaker 6: But what will you even beefing about? Again? Like are
• 22:04
  Speaker 6: both successful?
• 22:05
  Speaker 7: You know what I'm saying, we're gonna rap about the
• 22:07
  Speaker 7: same shit. We got two different genres, but we both
• 22:09
  Speaker 7: rad girlies and do that.
• 22:10
  Speaker 6: Yeah, and we got more in common than differences.
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: So it's like whatever, So are you not still going
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: to accept the bag from Cardi? And you have a
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: verse where you talk about you know, you say, bitch
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: said what less Clockett really got a hermster in my
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: closet talking about buying Big Mama bag like a niggage
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: already bought it like my niggame already coming off racks,
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: big bank, big facts. And we know that Cardi apologized
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: publicly to you after she went on that ring against
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: Ice Spice and mentioned you and mentioned buying you a
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: bag in private, and then this line came in. The
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: fans were like, is she talking to Cardi? What's going on?
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: Like everybody's trying to piece it together and figure that out.
• 22:52
  Speaker 5: Well, yes, yeah, it was about Guardy, like we were
• 23:00
  Speaker 5: saying earlier, like I rap about what's going on in
• 23:03
  Speaker 5: my life at the moment. At the time, I was well,
• 23:07
  Speaker 5: first of all, I made this album over nine months.
• 23:10
  Speaker 5: I made the album while I was pregnant, and yeah,
• 23:14
  Speaker 5: I was at an early stage in my pregnancy, and
• 23:17
  Speaker 5: I rushed to the studio to do this verse for
• 23:21
  Speaker 5: her in time for the first week sales.
• 23:23
  Speaker 6: Whatever and for every time, Yeah, for that.
• 23:27
  Speaker 5: Airtime remix, and literally like two days later, I'm see
• 23:33
  Speaker 5: all over the internet, I'm being called pussy, I'm pregnant.
• 23:37
  Speaker 5: Emotions high, like yeah, and it's someone I did as
• 23:42
  Speaker 5: looked as a friend, Like I understand this, you know,
• 23:45
  Speaker 5: industry ship first two, but we was on a texting basis,
• 23:50
  Speaker 5: So I feel like, yeah, you tweeted to the world,
• 23:55
  Speaker 5: but we got each other number.
• 23:58
  Speaker 6: You know.
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: Also, so I never talked personally after that around.
• 24:02
  Speaker 5: That so then like uh, probably like two months later
• 24:07
  Speaker 5: something like that, she did text me. But by that time,
• 24:10
  Speaker 5: I'm like that ain't even my dad, ain't even like
• 24:15
  Speaker 5: I'm not even thinking about that shit, nomore, you know
• 24:17
  Speaker 5: what I'm saying.
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: So have you spoken, bring you mouth?
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: Would you be open to the conversation.
• 24:24
  Speaker 6: Or you just yeah, yeah, I'm open to the conversation.
• 24:27
  Speaker 5: Or when I don't know, because I got I got
• 24:31
  Speaker 5: a baby, now some more shit, like I got life,
• 24:33
  Speaker 5: life that kept moving. But yeah I made that like
• 24:35
  Speaker 5: when the people just now hearing that song, but like
• 24:38
  Speaker 5: I made that song when that was a topic in
• 24:42
  Speaker 5: my life.
• 24:42
  Speaker 6: That's what it wasn't no this like it was. That's
• 24:45
  Speaker 6: just what was happening in my life.
• 24:46
  Speaker 5: Like you talking about it beat Mama band, which my
• 24:50
  Speaker 5: nigga do that, Like I don't need no damn bad That's.
• 24:53
  Speaker 6: That's just where I was in life. I don't it
• 24:55
  Speaker 6: is what it is.
• 24:56
  Speaker 7: And then not to make up for calling me pussy either,
• 24:58
  Speaker 7: like I don't want to be Yeah, especially.
• 24:59
  Speaker 6: If ask for that, Like, I don't know that it
• 25:02
  Speaker 6: just left a bad taste in my mouth. So I
• 25:03
  Speaker 6: just like I was in the booth and that just
• 25:06
  Speaker 6: what was happening? And then I just said what was happening?
• 25:09
  Speaker 4: And you know, I don't know.
• 25:11
  Speaker 7: But once, how complicated was it making an album being pregnant?
• 25:18
  Speaker 7: Because I actually I wrote a book while I was
• 25:20
  Speaker 7: pregnant and I was, yeah, and it was reflecting on
• 25:24
  Speaker 7: like me being a bitter baby mama with my my
• 25:26
  Speaker 7: son's father as a co panthers memoir and that ship
• 25:28
  Speaker 7: was rocky. On some days, I'm mad because I'm having to,
• 25:31
  Speaker 7: you know, relive the moments where he did me.
• 25:34
  Speaker 4: Wrong and shit.
• 25:34
  Speaker 6: Like So, how was it.
• 25:37
  Speaker 4: Like doing the album over nine months of being pregnant?
• 25:40
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it was. It was a first time was in
• 25:45
  Speaker 5: a lifetime experience. But I'm so glad I did it
• 25:47
  Speaker 5: because I look at it as like, shit, this this
• 25:51
  Speaker 5: something is. Yes, I put it out as lotto, but
• 25:55
  Speaker 5: it's something that Alyssa gave. Yeah, my daughter and something
• 26:00
  Speaker 5: that she can when she gets older, she gonna look
• 26:03
  Speaker 5: back like, dang this what this is what my mama
• 26:05
  Speaker 5: head was when she was pregnant with me and yeah,
• 26:10
  Speaker 5: it's a lot of songs about her on there. It's
• 26:12
  Speaker 5: it's a lot of songs about me popping my own
• 26:14
  Speaker 5: shit on there. I don't know why they think this
• 26:16
  Speaker 5: whole album about that man. I love that man, But
• 26:19
  Speaker 5: y'all ain't heard on that. Clearly, y'all ain't heard get
• 26:22
  Speaker 5: money girl, y'all ain't heard mama.
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: Even in Cromhart's Diaper Bag, you start out like I
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: get get work space for the birk and so I
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: added more feet.
• 26:30
  Speaker 6: Rap no kapa my rap I was.
• 26:31
  Speaker 5: I was calling the contractor daily while I'm pregnant, Like, listen,
• 26:35
  Speaker 5: this baby is gonna come out any day now, you
• 26:37
  Speaker 5: got hurt, you got her up and finish that closet edition.
• 26:39
  Speaker 6: Hello.
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, let's talk about that though, right, because yes it's
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: romantic and we know that you're in a relationship and
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: y'all are now you have a family. But like some
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: of the songs to me sound like almost like a
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: rap girls like affirmation. Like when I listen to Chromhart's
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: Diaper Bag, it's like you're cheering yourself on. I know
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: you're dealing with a lot at the center.
• 26:55
  Speaker 5: Yes, I'm cheering myself on and I like to like
• 26:58
  Speaker 5: when I'm in the booth, I'm big and myself up,
• 27:00
  Speaker 5: even bigger than my reality is right now, like beyond
• 27:04
  Speaker 5: what I can even see, And I want people to
• 27:07
  Speaker 5: take that away, especially the girls when they listen to
• 27:09
  Speaker 5: my music. It's like, I hate that the the people
• 27:15
  Speaker 5: can be so shallow to dumb that down to oh
• 27:17
  Speaker 5: this my man, my man, Like the message is so
• 27:20
  Speaker 5: much deeper than that, So I don't know, shout out
• 27:23
  Speaker 5: to the real music listeners and then people with real
• 27:25
  Speaker 5: emotions that can listen beyond the surface level.
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: But I think also too, there as a conversation to
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: be had about why can't you be happy in love
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: and be loved properly?
• 27:34
  Speaker 5: Because they a misery love company. They want you to
• 27:37
  Speaker 5: be crying like them, and they want you to be
• 27:41
  Speaker 5: in a relationship with an ain't shient nigga like them,
• 27:44
  Speaker 5: and like, nah, baby, that ain't the that ain't the

  Speaker 3: It was the show in Japan and they.
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: And they were like a lot a lot of I

• 28:12
  Speaker 2: was like, hey, I want to be we want to
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: be respectful over I know that. I mean, I've learned
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: a lot in this room, but it was more so
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: like you know, when you are expecting and it's a
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: lot that goals. And I learned from just that, like
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: that first couple months and trying to figure out those
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: trimesters and all that. But people after that show in
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: Japan were like a lot of was pregnant. Lot of pregnant.
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: But that hard to deal with the pressure to be
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: like put it out there.
• 28:38
  Speaker 6: Yeah I was.
• 28:39
  Speaker 5: I was in Japan crying in my room and I
• 28:41
  Speaker 5: had text my I text my team like y'all can
• 28:45
  Speaker 5: we go get a bachi or something because I'm just
• 28:47
  Speaker 5: not feeling it today. Mind you, My team didn't even know,
• 28:52
  Speaker 5: like only my best friend is my DJ, my manager
• 28:55
  Speaker 5: is like my sister, and my role manager Rico, it's
• 28:59
  Speaker 5: like my brother. Them the only people that knew at
• 29:01
  Speaker 5: that point, my assistant, my stylist, the women who dressed
• 29:05
  Speaker 5: me looka they did not know. Like nobody on my
• 29:07
  Speaker 5: team knew. So my family didn't even know. So like
• 29:11
  Speaker 5: my grandma is seeing this stuff on the internet and
• 29:13
  Speaker 5: she called my mama like.
• 29:14
  Speaker 6: Is it little pregnant damn, and so yeah, it's just
• 29:19
  Speaker 6: a point.
• 29:20
  Speaker 5: Yeah, my mama knew. I told my mama earlier. My
• 29:22
  Speaker 5: mama knew, but it was still like like my grandma,
• 29:25
  Speaker 5: like very close people to me that didn't know. When
• 29:28
  Speaker 5: I got dressed and I did the fit in y'all.
• 29:31
  Speaker 6: I saw I didn't look pregnant. I did not look pregnant.
• 29:34
  Speaker 5: But I guess like when you're performing, you not thinking
• 29:36
  Speaker 5: about sucking your stomach, and I really.
• 29:38
  Speaker 6: Did have just ate too.
• 29:45
  Speaker 4: Swelling you up like that.
• 29:47
  Speaker 5: But then when I posted my pictures, right, my caption
• 29:49
  Speaker 5: was like along the lines of like, oh, I just
• 29:52
  Speaker 5: ate too much rum in y'all tripping like you know,
• 29:55
  Speaker 5: nah that girl pregnant, saying.
• 29:57
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, but look what so what was it?
• 30:02
  Speaker 7: Why did you hold on to it and keep it
• 30:03
  Speaker 7: from your family, not from the world, because like careous
• 30:06
  Speaker 7: about that, but like your family you want to wait
• 30:09
  Speaker 7: till you got past a certain point.
• 30:11
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it was more.
• 30:12
  Speaker 5: So just like waiting until I got past a certain
• 30:14
  Speaker 5: point because I was still very very very early in Japan,
• 30:19
  Speaker 5: past a certain point. And I wanted to do it
• 30:22
  Speaker 5: special because a lot of my family live in Ohio, Okay,
• 30:25
  Speaker 5: on my mom's side, so I wanted to tell them
• 30:29
  Speaker 5: in a special way. So I didn't want them to
• 30:31
  Speaker 5: find out through social media. But and sometimes with the
• 30:35
  Speaker 5: life I'm living, I don't have their luxury no more.
• 30:38
  Speaker 6: It is what.
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: I feel like, you did a really good job of
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: keeping a lot to yourself. It was the rock and
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: chair video too. We didn't even cover the story, but
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: I told them, I'm like, she's in a rocking chair,
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: so fans think that she had the baby I was.
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: I feel like that was gonna come to him. Let's
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: just let her, you know what I mean.
• 30:58
  Speaker 6: I'ma be one hunt there.
• 30:59
  Speaker 5: I figured people would know or speculate when I when
• 31:03
  Speaker 5: I posted that video, but that that was real life,
• 31:06
  Speaker 5: Like baby girl was on my chest. And if you
• 31:09
  Speaker 5: got a new boy, you know you cannot you cannot
• 31:11
  Speaker 5: move better move or she couldn't want to get on
• 31:15
  Speaker 5: that city.
• 31:16
  Speaker 6: So I was like, shit, I gotta make this video.
• 31:19
  Speaker 6: It is what it is. Let me just try to
• 31:21
  Speaker 6: school go down a little bit.
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: The video was like, right here, get the boos, we
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: get the little I was like, hey, I had to
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: cancel my events and talk a little bit about that too,
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: because what you're doing for other moms now that you
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: are a mother, it is a relationship that you have
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: with mothers now is different.
• 31:37
  Speaker 6: It's so different.
• 31:38
  Speaker 5: Like I've been doing these like pop ups, meet and
• 31:41
  Speaker 5: greet albums, signing type things, and like to see the
• 31:46
  Speaker 5: embrace from mothers like they literally be in line with
• 31:51
  Speaker 5: their babies now and they be like, girl, I was
• 31:53
  Speaker 5: pregnant at the same time as you, or girl just
• 31:57
  Speaker 5: had my baby, and.
• 31:58
  Speaker 6: I commend you for doing this.
• 32:00
  Speaker 5: This is like a whole new relatability I have with
• 32:05
  Speaker 5: like my fast now. So it's so cool to see
• 32:08
  Speaker 5: like the I don't know, yeah, the embrace.
• 32:11
  Speaker 7: You just happen. Moms feel seen a lot of times
• 32:13
  Speaker 7: a week where an it and it's like you don't
• 32:16
  Speaker 7: feel seen, you don't feel like you're working hard enough.
• 32:18
  Speaker 4: That's the part of that postpartum depression as well.
• 32:20
  Speaker 7: Like gosh, girl, I went through that there was times
• 32:22
  Speaker 7: where I did not feel seen and my husband couldn't
• 32:25
  Speaker 7: do anything.
• 32:26
  Speaker 4: To help to make me feel better.
• 32:28
  Speaker 7: You know what I mean that you just got to
• 32:29
  Speaker 7: come up out of it when you do so what
• 32:30
  Speaker 7: you're doing for them.
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: How long does that last? Like that feeling that like
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: I'm not doing enough as a mom, or like.
• 32:38
  Speaker 5: I've seen people say like they they don't have their
• 32:41
  Speaker 5: baby a year ago and they still have their days.
• 32:43
  Speaker 7: So yeah, I feel like I'm just getting out of
• 32:47
  Speaker 7: my My daughter is one, she's going to be two
• 32:49
  Speaker 7: in August August twentieth, and I'm just getting back into
• 32:53
  Speaker 7: my bag of like I felt like I wasn't funny,
• 32:55
  Speaker 7: I wasn't writing comedy, I didn't know what to do here.
• 32:57
  Speaker 7: I'm sitting here dumbfounded every day. I'm just like you know,
• 33:00
  Speaker 7: you don't you feel like walls are closing in, and
• 33:03
  Speaker 7: then you feel guilty, like am I not doing enough?
• 33:07
  Speaker 5: Yeah?
• 33:07
  Speaker 6: I think that's a lot, like, yeah.
• 33:11
  Speaker 3: I was twenty one with the baby. Has has it
• 33:13
  Speaker 3: changed him at all?
• 33:14
  Speaker 6: For sure? For sure?
• 33:21
  Speaker 4: I love you so much.
• 33:22
  Speaker 6: I love you so much.
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: When you've got five more seconds, I want to ask
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: the question, I think you'd be great but it's like.
• 33:27
  Speaker 3: The pooky pooky with the baby, like pooky, is he
• 33:29
  Speaker 3: like that with the baby? And then you go outside like.
• 33:34
  Speaker 6: About my relationship.
• 33:36
  Speaker 5: But yeah, yeah, E been sending me videos like yeah,
• 33:41
  Speaker 5: I've been crying looking at him.
• 33:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you said different because it's like when you when
• 33:45
  Speaker 3: you were the child, you see a whole different side.
• 33:48
  Speaker 5: Working mysterious ways. Let me say that because I feel
• 33:51
  Speaker 5: like we both needed a girl. Yeah, no, no, it's
• 33:59
  Speaker 5: nice for that's I bet y'all needed a girl.
• 34:03
  Speaker 6: Yeah. Yeah.
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: One of the things I thought was I saw a
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: pick up. Big two was when you and twenty one Savages,
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: the mother of his other kids, hung out had a
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: good time. The videos viral Girls Night. I know with
• 34:13
  Speaker 2: just and what she talks about with her co parents
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: and but one of the biggest things I learned from
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: her was when you're in a good place, that type
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: of stuff is like a normal thing, Like we're all
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: family at that point. So when that type of stuff
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: is out there and you're changing the narrative around that,
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: how does it feel to get all of the like
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: conversation around it because you're in a good place about it,
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: But the world is like confused because they don't normally
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: see it.
• 34:33
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's why they are stay confused confused because every
• 34:37
  Speaker 5: time y'all think it's something and then it don't be that,
• 34:40
  Speaker 5: then they make up something else and then it's like,
• 34:43
  Speaker 5: but yeah, that was one of our children or fifth
• 34:48
  Speaker 5: grade graduation and we were kicking in. Yeah, people just
• 34:53
  Speaker 5: they gonna they're gonna continue to be confused.
• 34:55
  Speaker 7: But see, that's why I wrote my book because it's
• 34:58
  Speaker 7: like people want to be stuff people want. I feel
• 35:01
  Speaker 7: like the people that are confused or acting confused, like
• 35:04
  Speaker 7: they like people can't co parent and you know, families
• 35:07
  Speaker 7: blend right.
• 35:09
  Speaker 4: I feel like that's that's weird.
• 35:11
  Speaker 7: You want to stay stuck in toxicity and operate out
• 35:14
  Speaker 7: of dysfunction when it's really a family, like you know
• 35:17
  Speaker 7: what I mean, you're happy, they're happy. Like she just said,
• 35:21
  Speaker 7: like she said, I ain't gonna go past this real quick.
• 35:23
  Speaker 4: She literally was like.
• 35:25
  Speaker 7: Our when it was one of our children graduation. That's
• 35:29
  Speaker 7: that's kids. One thing about it about them kids even
• 35:33
  Speaker 7: before my year. I don't play about them kids. Yeah,
• 35:35
  Speaker 7: I love I love my kids.
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: Mag mama, man, what that relationship was that something that
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: you were like, this is important for me to do,
• 35:45
  Speaker 2: like to build that relationship because sometimes it's just the
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: kids and with their mom as well.
• 35:49
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, one hundred percent. It's a family like families
• 35:52
  Speaker 5: coming all different shape sizes, it's family.
• 35:59
  Speaker 6: It's family.
• 36:00
  Speaker 3: That's the thing about that too, is if you follow
• 36:02
  Speaker 3: these blogs or follow these sites, they will tell you
• 36:05
  Speaker 3: your life that's.
• 36:06
  Speaker 6: Totally not true, but the people believe it.
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: Like people believe it.
• 36:10
  Speaker 3: Like I'm just thinking about some of the headlines I'm
• 36:14
  Speaker 3: seen and I'm like, God, damn, the attacked it is
• 36:15
  Speaker 3: shot a lotto.
• 36:18
  Speaker 5: I let them attack me, though, because I could very
• 36:20
  Speaker 5: much clear clear everything up. But I feel like at
• 36:22
  Speaker 5: that point you just opening a new can of worms.
• 36:25
  Speaker 5: And then now.
• 36:26
  Speaker 6: People know what bothered you with, you know, like how
• 36:28
  Speaker 6: to how to get under your skin. So it's like.
• 36:32
  Speaker 5: I keep addressing it in the music, but the blogs
• 36:36
  Speaker 5: I feel like also too, without even speaking my all
• 36:39
  Speaker 5: my life, I've let stuff address stuff like y'all thought
• 36:45
  Speaker 5: it was one thing, then then you see us kicking
• 36:47
  Speaker 5: it and then like you know what I'm saying, So
• 36:49
  Speaker 5: it's like God gonna on, uh, he gonna reveal what's
• 36:54
  Speaker 5: supposed to be revealed, you know, because then get on
• 36:56
  Speaker 5: my face.
• 36:57
  Speaker 2: I keep going back to that song because's the last
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: one I think I listened to Forgiving It. But when
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: you do the sidebach line, and I don't know if
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: it was about the that situation. I think a conversation
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: that people tried to throwing you was like the whole
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: marriage thing not merry thing. And it's like, at this point,
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: y'all are in a place where people should move on,
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: but they don't. They don't get out your face about that.
• 37:15
  Speaker 5: No, because when you leave a door open, like I said,
• 37:18
  Speaker 5: like what, people don't know, they're gonna make up.
• 37:20
  Speaker 6: But he not. And I don't even want to say that.
• 37:25
  Speaker 6: It's like that's his that's his story to tell you know.
• 37:28
  Speaker 6: I'm not. I'm not twenty one savage. Like we we happy,
• 37:32
  Speaker 6: we do it works for us, and people make up
• 37:35
  Speaker 6: with they don't know. That's what I'll say.
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: Well, I think you're done a damn good job at
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: all the things. So congratulations. I saw today a two
