Yeah?

This is my first time. Man, I'm super excited. I always wanted to be here, you know, in this position, and you know, now we're here.

What is you guys' experience been so far?

For me?

It's it's been great. They show us a lot of respect. People are walking up to us from BT and everyone's been really helpful. So so far, it's been nice and smooth.

What I'm feeling is community, Like it feels like a big family reunion.

It feels like a cookout. It feels like I could do the to me a two step even though I can't. Like it's just giving love and I love to be here.

Yeah. Man, it's been a great experience. You know.

The dopest thing to me is like going to these BT events and you know, having people that I've been looking up to for years and be like, oh man, you know, I love y'all podcasts. Man, you guys are doing you'all things, So to me, that's like, that's amazing.

Up.

Definitely feeling the vibes of the family aspect, Like who has said, everybody has been you know, helpful and uh, you know with everything that we have to do, and it's just a great experience so far, and and you know, they grow every year and I'm just so grateful to be a part of it now.

It's a production.

Like I feel if you have been watching b ET from the time you are a child up until now. Then you've been able to see the elevation of it, but to actually be in this room right now, I'm like, hold on now, and BT given what they supposed to have gave BT Awards.

When it's twenty three B here, Baller Alert show, and then we're gonna keep bringing y'all more guests, more artists right here, keeping logging here, more guests.

On the wing.

We'll be right back with more of a baller Alert show. CRIMEA just popped.

I got something up, y'all sleep. I can already do a confirmation. We're gonna see y'all perform at the BT Awards.

You know you deserve.

It's definitely not your first BT. How many bnts.

This is our first time as.

A group, as a group. This is the first I know we've done hip hop.

Yeah.

Different than BT wards, Yeah, hey man, BT twenty twenty three. Crime, I've been a building fifty years of hip hop.

What does that mean to you?

It's an honor, sacrifice.

Oh, hall of fame, It's a blessing.

We feel like them. Question.

So it was a time when I didn't see you guys all together. Everyone was doing their own thing. Was that by choice? Or was like what was going on at that time? Because now.

Life we just sometimes we all work on individual projects. We come back together, you know, to do group stuff. But we're all creative, so we all have different outlets and stuff that we like to dibble and dabble into.

But music is always first, always first.

You know. It was simple, just they was about to stop the car to get the fight. But we're here. Yeah, you made it.

There's a rumor going around that Scrappy will.

Be here hand in hand with timon Is that true? Man? I don't know if you can dance lab making your hands on an egg?

I saw the fucking five man. She a hot girl? Man baby? What's up man? That little bet awards? You know, twenty twenty three. It's a pleasure to be here. You know what I'm saying.

One thing you do is get all the way into whatever you're promoting. And I really respect that.

Coming off such a hard year, I feel like, you know, coming in and then just having this this single, you know, taking over the charts.

Did you already know that was gonna happen with that song?

In particularly as soon as I made it, I knew what time it was. I probably turned around. People were sitting the studio with my turn around and sick.

I said, got that good? I knew I had one with that one.

But like in terms of, like, you know, just just putting my other into what I'm doing, I kind of got away from that for a second, you know what I'm saying, Like I was unmotivated in terms of, like, you know, how I put my ship out, how market it, you know what I'm saying, how I push it because I just simply wasn't in a good space period. I wouldn't even enjoy and the type you know, I wouldn't

That's what I do.

So when it come to that, you know, it's easy to markt a song. It's easy to you know what I'm saying, get on TikTok. And that's my first time even tapping into the whole TikTok wave. If you see what I'm saying, and you know, really tapping to the way people push this music, in the way fans receive it, in the way they latch on the songs?

Now, what made you hate that drill sound?

Though?

Really the producer of the song he from New Jersey's name Charlie heat He really skipped over the beat.

You know what I'm saying.

It's like one of them situations where producer play a beat where he ain't confident that you would like or not, so he kind of played another one. He skipped over, played another, and I'm like, oh, we'll go back. He went back to it, and I said, loaded up after rip. Soon I heard it, load it up as soon as I came off the rip called Financially a hot girl comes Shakes. I probably turned around and looked at this nigga. I'm like, oh, I'm like, boy, got one. That wasn't

I'm damn, it wasn't long.

Before you Go.

If I spent long on it, it was just a perfect because I knew it was. It was that smoke.

Now before you Go, you arguably have one of the best physical shows. What did that come from?

I take pride in it, I mean religious being, you know, because somebody's be up there just be telling you you know I do not do that. I take pride and like getting in front of them people and being able to really control a room or control the atmosphere of the room and be able to move and and tie room around. Like when you do that, it ain't no fake. And anybody could make a song. I could write a song for a nigga. I can record it for him. You can do It's a thousand ways to do it.

You got it? What's up with it? Back?

You get in front of them people, you got that Mikey in your hand. You know what I'm saying. It ain't nothing but you and them. You gotta be the real thing, man. And that's why I take pride and really you know, putting what I got to offer on display.

You know what I'm saying. When it comes to a live.

Show, I don't be rehearsing none of that shit. I'm not with none of that. I like to keep the energy in the room. A lot of times I don't even know the order of the of the track listing that I'm gonna be do it. My djil be asking me on the way that they vote about hours before I now hold on, hold on, I go out there and look behind the curtain, see see the type of crowd.

Feel the energy and it being like we gonna do this, this, this, this and this.

Now you're giving people regame because a lot of artists are going to try to steal this message.

I mean, it's it's risky business.

You know what I'm saying. You gotta really be you gotta really be ready to adapt. You know what I'm saying real time. He Yeah, and you gotta have them things. See I got them things, had them Hicks.

How does it feel because I feel like this record shake something is like the phoenix rising back up because.

I felt like they're trying to cancel. You know, they trying to get your boy up out of there.

Man.

But it's like you came back with another one. I said. As soon as I heard that song, I said the same thing, said keep on that. I said, I ain't going he got another one now it's over.

You're always happy for you.

Yeah, you know what I did.

And soon as I got in the studio and I heard the beat, I put on my phone. I doubt now I'm on one, and I called it fucking five. Let's what they do is Baby chilling with the Ball Alert Show Live at the BET Awards twenty twenty three.

Out there, it can absolute infestation.

So yeah, we leaning when the record comes out, You're gonna come back here premiere easy.

I've always had love for baller Alert. I got a question for you.

Who should open the show for the BT wards stacks? Andre that literally would shut the whole thing down?

Tell me, and unfortunately he's not. Mike said he's putting on an album and then retracted it and said, I was just I was like, that's all excited, bro. Who should close the show?

Who would close it?

If these are all hypotheticals, these are all hypotheticals, because jay Z should absolutely close it.

That would make all the sense in the world.

But clearly that's probably not well, actually no, because b E T is full of surprises, and they you noticed.

I did because the jet could come, the jet out of nowhere, That's the one I did.

Not singer here.

And Mariah Isa, you are absolutely are we talking about hip hop?

I like you.

Stay this way.

Do you know what I like?

Intentional you and and I don't care what joke you think you about to you about to pull up, because.

For you know, I don't.

I don't think he has a joke today. Listen, I was intentional about this five. I literally where I'm at right now. Thematically, style wise is real. Seventies like seventies soul is what's informing me. So Bill Withers, you know, uh, Curtis Mayfield, which if you did any research, my sister, you know, you would know that I played I played Curtis Mayfield and the TV series Genius Aretha about Aretha Franklin, Cynthia Revot.

Thank you so much.

I love that you're great TV. Yeah, I like the TV version movie version.

Okay, I'm not gonna talk about competition because it gave a little more. You ain't gonna get me wrapped up in no mess because.

You wasn't in the movie.

You're right, you was in the TV version.

Okay?

So you are so loud and bubbly and personable.

And we love that.

But your music has a lot of soul true to it.

Okay, how how do.

We get this diversity in you?

Like?

How did we get this from you?

How did you?

What is your inspiration?

Are you in love?

Absolutely? You don't see this thing. This is I don't play around with accessories. You gotta work, no promise ring, you gotta work.

Okay, So let me ask you, when did you fall in love with hip hop?

When did I fall in love with hip hop? I don't know if I fell and ever fell in love with hip hop. I have a great respect for hip hop. There's a few folks in it that I named that I respect greatly, and those are the ones that I've taken notes from Andre three thousand. You see him on any stage, the man delivers well, Kanye, apart from all the crazy stuff they're taking furniture, that's what hip hop has done. Hip hop has hip hop has moved furniture in real time.

Literally and in truth.

We truly respect you and are grateful that you stopped by the ball A show. I like, next year we're gonna manifest that. Yeah, thank you for stopping me.

This is my sister, Keana Lede is in the Bay Special Guests.

I said it right. I said it right.

You did.

He wasn't going to try to say it right. I love your tattoo. You got a jelly fish.

Is that a power swag?

Yes, it is.

I see a motorcycle bike.

Yeah, it's a dirt bike.

Is that a cup with an ice in it?

It's bobo.

I love you were so swagged that we celebrating fifty years of hip hop here at BT. You know what does hip hop mean to you?

Hip Hop just means being genuine and honest about where you come from, what happened, and where you want to be.

Yeah, okay, So do you have a single out?

I do.

I just put out a whole album called Grudges, and we have two things that right now. We have Jealous featuring Lma, and we have Deeper.

Okay.

Yeah, I seen where you were like getting all emotional when you sing your posters everywhere, Like, how does that feel? Because I feel like, you know, I've been knowing you for years now and I've just been kind of like just seeing your whole journey. Actually, I was mad at her because I was congratulating her about her new album and she didn't text me back.

Yeah, I already told us what it was.

Anyways, how has this journey been to get to this point the album is finally here.

It has been a long journey three years, three years since the last one, but it's been great. I feel like this is now that we're outside, and I'm outside and I can see what it's doing for everybody. It makes me feel so much gratitude and I'm just really I feel like all the hard work that me and my team have put in this project just really shows when we're seeing the feedback from everybody and that people are loving it.

Who does your music speak to? Like, who's your audience? Who relates to.

You the most?

Well?

I would say.

The people that will probably relate to at least is any man that takes offense to the thing that we say a man our trash. They probably won't like it as much as everybody else.

They'll still like it though, because it's good music. You can't really deny that.

But yeah, grudges, I got grudges, So people with grudges for sure, but also everybody that's just going through shit in their life, Like we're just trying to get through it, so we can get through it together.

It'll help us a little bit more.

You know.

So, how many heartbreaks have you had since this album?

Since this album? Actually I broke a heart Yeah I did, but it was for a good reason. It was just controlling, like very controlling and controlling. He was controlling, and I don't want to do that me back. I like it on him, but anything bad that happens to me, will just blame it on him. Yeah, it's definitely supposed.

To Who wants to know? She just said that.

She just said, you know, outside, I'm outside, but I'm also inside. You know, I'd be out my house going to the grocery store, and I'd be in my house making the meals.

So nobody has your eye at the moment.

I have my eye.

Okay, we.

Had BT Awards twenty twenty three.

I'm just like like I'm coming up, and when I come up, like when I really drop and I do it, it's gonna be so.

Big it ain't even gonna be no trying to fit in and none of that. Like I'm in the lane on my own.

Well, we hear be t flage.

Brother like, yeah, three got the beef, You got the.

Hot sir, what I'm scorching in this door?

You sacrifice for the Yeah, I did a the order and take a couple of times.

I think like you wipe your nose and sh.

Yeah, man, what you got going on?

Is this your first BET?

Second, it's my first BT as me, like as Blanco, Like yeah, like before I went, but like now I'm here.

You know what I'm saying.

Yeah, I was made when I was a pup, like when I was just a pup, Like you know, I came here.

I did.

I did Hip Hop Awards last year, though I did hit year. Was my first time doing BT Awards, like performing and all that.

It's good. I mean I'm sweaty, but like I've been enjoying it.

So what's the experience so far with all this black excellence celebrating hip hop?

Fifty?

This like a cookout back here right, Like I get to kick it with you.

Yeah, Like I'm seeing so many people that said the name is cookout, Yeah exactly, so famous of a cookout. But it's just felt like like it's a black excellence, black party type of ship, Like, yeah, no, that's a fact.

We celebrate fifty years.

Man.

You know what's your favorite era out of the fifty.

The one I keep sampling?

Yeah, early two Irish Man Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, Billie Island right that we did silver too, that's the that's the bow Wall record take You Home. We sampled that one. Like it's just like, I don't know that era was like that was when I was growing up. That's like when all the little girls had to crush on they had their favorite ramper on.

They w washed like that. So I'll be thinking about, you know, just thinking about that type.

Of time, like, yeah, are you making money off these records that you're sampling?

I'm rich?

Yeah no, no, no, I made a lot of money of these records, like like and then and I think the only thing you really sacrificed at that point is like publishing.

But like, yeah, yeah, they beat me over they were publishing. Man for sure, gonna lie to you.

But yeah, but like that other fifty like that, a lot of that was a good fitty I ain't gonna lie to you, like, you know, and and and then the Wade the love that that that was shown on radio.

My guy right here.

Yeah, like we we definitely made that fifty work. It definitely made that fifty work. I put some money in my mom pocket with that fifty. You know, pay my mind, yeah, you know, like yeah, the pay the ball with that fifty traveled around the world.

Just got back from Dubai with that.

Wait right, all right, I had the ball for Look, you did something that rappers rarely do in the beginning of their career because they go with the jewelry, the clothes.

I'm just about to get my first change.

You took care of moms. You you bought real estate.

Yeah, for sure, for sure, for sure.

What made you think I gotta do it this way?

You know?

The thing is like I think we all like when you have nothing, you say you want to do everything, and we rarely ever do it.

You know what I'm saying, Like you're like, yo, no.

When I get this money, I'm gonna take care of such and such, I'm gonna do this, I'm gonna fix this and fix that, and we never do it.

And like I just wanted to like really stamp that.

It was a little bit of selfish too, because like, like my mom is like she the one that always looks towards me for certain answers. I was like, yo, she has no idea how stressful this world is. So I was like, let me just give you some money publicly and let everybody just run to you and see what it looked like.

Get it? She get it that the church on her as church they want the.

Times done went up, the ties don't go to church. Right right, I thought it was still fine for we got coming up now.

So I'm dropping I'm doing my first official album right now. We're working on that right now. Casablancos.

We just dropped cost of the Road to Casablanco to EP but now it's Catablanco, the actual, like you know, the world that I've been building for the past, like for the past year, and just creating the music and creating like the environment that like that that I want the fans of living that I want the kids that's growing up looking at me to be inspired by and living and you know, like and just just my world.

You know what I'm saying like, like, so it's.

Just creating that world and uh and yeah, that's that's what this project is. So I'm excited for that.

Follow BT Wars twenty twenty three, celebrating hip hop. You know you do music yourself? Where what's up with the music?

Though? You got anything? Yes?

I do?

Was well, I certainly do.

So.

I've been working really hard behind the scenes, and I have a plethora of music. I'm just gonna drop back to back to back. So we have three singles were that were gonna put out a ballot called Narcissist, uh, mid Temple R and B song got done now and then a rap caught first class produced by that man right there. But me and Hanky got about san Joys. We expect this to start dropping so about ten weeks. Yeah, we're working on the visuals right now, and then we're

It was gonna be the first single.

It's between first class and narcissists.

Where did narcissists come from?

Gemini over there? Right, you're a Gemini, Right.

Yeah, I'm a Gemini.

Listen. You know, if you've been in a relationship with a narcissist, this.

Is a record, records, that's a real record.

It's not a day, it's not a It's just it was a release.

You know.

I was, I was having a day and I went to the studio and it just that's what happened.

Speaking of single, are you single?

You know what?

I'm an album? Are you married? I am married?

Yes?

Okay to to your you just had a yeah to my to my baby girls, yeah, daughter's frong. Okay cool. How's it been married life?

Now?

You know, married life has up and down. It's great and interesting.

It's a lot of work.

It is, it is, you know, it's it's.

Very challenging putting two completely different lines together, you know what I'm saying. So I think the main thing is just trying to understand each other, listen to each other, and work towards.

Common goals and then figuring out what those common goals are.

Because you know, things that may be like just second nature to me aren't for him and vice versa. And it's like some things like i'ven didn't even realize we needed to discuss that.

I thought everybody thought like that, you know what I'm saying.

So it's just figuring that out and then still navigating your career and then still you know what I'm saying.

So it's just try to find that balance.

You know what, Mesika, I feel like you are a legend online. You know what, Mesika, I feel like you are a legend online, like on.

The social media, you know, whether you're checking your arch nemesis Hazeley, or whether you're.

Checking somebody you know or put somebody up a gay man, you know.

And now you're here at the bt A war and we got a whole social atmosphere now you know what I'm saying.

Yeah, I love it.

The online presence that you mentioned is something that's really really huge because like I feel like, for the past you know, nine years, I built this huge platform and my page got deleted really in November.

Why how many follows did you have at that time?

About three million? And call somebody listen, So I actually it's been crazy. I had a hand in deleting your page.

Well, so I got to the bottom of it, and basically Instagram has this crazy policy that says public figures can't disparage private people, right, So basically, you know, I'm the clapback queen.

That's who I am.

So people literally will attack me just to get a clap back and they want to hit a blog and I ignore ninety percent of it if I even see it. So let's say somebody might say something terrible to me, like bitch, go die kill yourself, and I might say you're ugly.

And they report me to believe it.

But if I report them, I'll get a message back saying we didn't delete this comment because we didn't have enough time to review it. Oh wow, So something happens when someone on the platform said something, reports something.

It's like it goes to was it like cyber bullying?

Yeah, So let's say maybe out out of five thousand people that said something terrible to me, I replied to seven and I got deleted for bullying, Like it could be it could.

Be the probably because you guys more much more follow.

So I've been fighting get back page back for seven months and ultimately I was told you're never getting get back. But thankfully, you know, I met with great friend Marcus. He is the head of music partnership on Instagram. We we just you know, had a meeting with my team the other day and he gave me my name back. So guys, make sure you're following me, new page, same name. It could be confusing because people like, wait a minute, did you block me? No, so it's at Mesika Kalicia.

Know, new page, same name. We're just you know, trying to get it back together.

So also, you know, putting out music or putting out projects, you want to make sure you have your fan base and your followers. So just trying to you know, build all that back up and just get back to get back to work.

Speaking of being online, you know, shout out to your beautiful daughter. I feel like y'all like kind of twins, but she got the yeah, she got the green eyes. Yeah man, y'all y'all had a beautiful baby. He's kind of locked up right now, going yeah, so how are you going to navigate that with your.

Daughter still trying to figure that out.

It's a challenge, it is, you know, it's a big difference from taking her to his sold out shows to now this, you know, but it is what we have to deal with.

So you know, we're just gonna pray about it and and do the best that we can.

Does she know where he is?

She does?

Yeah, Yeah, that was challenging, even like yeah, you know, it took it took a while. We decided that he would be the one to tell her. So you know, the way he kind of explained it was, you know, daddy's in detention type thing, and you know, tried to make it in terms that she could understand.

So, you know, some days are good, some days are bad.

You know, it's just it's never something I imagined, but you know that that I would be dealing with or my daughter would be dealing with. But you know, everything happens for a reason. Does your husband like step in and really you know, oh.

Yeah, he's really good with her. He's really good with her. You know, he's been in her life for three years, so you know, she she she.

Really she really gets a lot of you know, what she needs from that father father role. So you know, we're just gonna keep praying for him, and you know, hopefully he'll be home soon and you know he'll be back out here.

Yes, you're gonna put her into acting or anything like that, because that faces.

Got to be seen. I just did.

Okay, I didn't want to, but she really wants to do it.

So I'm like, you know what, I'm not going to stop her because you know, at the end of the day, I don't want her to have certain experiences.

But who better than to navigate that other than me?

Like I know what to expect, I know what to avoid, you know what I'm saying, So, like, you know what, I would rather her do do it now under my guidance where she can grow up learning instead of like me when I turned eighteen, I had to just figure out everything, you know what I'm saying, had to figure out the castings and who to trust and who you can't.

So, yeah, she just did her first TV gig. Yes, so you'll be seeing that soon.

It's a show or commercial. Okay, it's a show. I don't know if I can say what it is. Okay, we'll wait, but make sure you follow her at car Barbie. Yeah, because we'll be posting it there. So she she did so amazing. She had a script to memorize and and she remember, she re memorized the whole thing in five minutes. I told her, I said, go in your room, spend twenty minutes with it, and then come back and I'll help.

Mommy will help you.

So I'm thinking I just wanted her to, you know, get familiar with it, and then I was gonna help her memory that. She came back five minutes later, I'm ready and put the paper.

Down and did the whole thing. I was like, stars, baby, So like I helped her none.

Yeah, And and then she even had her little voice inflictions and her look, and I was like, Okay, been here before.

You're love and hip hop Atlanta. Yes, new single out Appreciate Me MTV.

Wilding out TV.

Yeah. Show.

I think that you think people mad at you still for lying about being having being a spicy baby daddy?

What do you mean us about that pregnant from you? That picture that you've seen with that baby in her stomach was mine.

It wasn't a baby, it was a prop I was.

The father of the prop child. God. What do you mean some way? What happened.

What happened to all these these women that you had during the interview? Who are those women?

So was his girlfriend the ones that be eating my butt? Yeah? Well after the interview han't pretty much all of them just was like fuck you nigga. They lost They said, oh you got.

Us walking around and looking like the buddy does I say, eighty five percent of the women.

Eat, but out here.

They switching to l A.

Go Crazyty years, Oh I love it.

Fifty years that hip hop mean that that that God is the greatest.

Okay, you know what I feel like, fifty years hip hop means God is the greatest because hip hop was built off of the minority, from niggas that came from nothing, frustrated use people that had nothing. Only thing they had was a talent, and they used that talent to to to create a buzz and the name for themself and bless the lives of many. And only way something like that can transpire is through God's grace.

So fifty years of that being done.

Constantly, over and over every year, more artists come out of the trenches, out of the struggle because guess what, outside of fifty years of hip hop, all we got to the sports and now we're really getting in the entrepreneurship more. But it was drugs and guns from there. So it's like when you're seeing that that we can that we can take this place called hip hop and make a change for us, our family, our friends and put more people on and it just turns into a domino effect.

That's God's blessing.

Man.

We'll be right back stayed with more of the Baller Alert show.

Princess Love.

Love that it is, Okay, it is. That's what's up. I was born with that name. That is a beautiful name. What's your name? Okay?

Now it's Princess Love Norwood. But I'm happy that I made my maiden name my middle name because before I don't tell a lot of people this, but it was Princess Pilipino Love.

Pilipino, Okay, because you uh, that's the what.

What's your mom?

She's filipin Filipino.

That's the way she pronounces it with.

They want to.

My daughter does a really like cameras in her face, but she's very social, so.

I don't know.

So how is y supporting the acting and everything?

He supports everything I do. It's like, whatever I want to do, he supports it.

It seems like you.

Guys have found a great balance right now. Because it was back and forth, you know, and for people were like is this just for TV or is this real? Well it wasn't on TV like well, I mean like in the past it was like, you know, it'll show up on Loving your Rop or something like that.

So they were like, is this real or is it fake? You know, not fair.

It seems like you guys find a found a great balance.

Now.

Yeah, he was just on a college hill for the second time around. Is he taking this serious?

He is, you know, and I kind of have to tell him, like you you have to like keep going, you know what I mean. You can't just give up. You can't just sleep, you know. So he really took it serious this year and graduated. So we're all we watched you graduate.

That's good.

Wow.

I was being married to him because it seems like he plays all day.

That's why I love him though, because like I gotta laugh, gotta keep me laughing.

Sometimes it's like, come on, now, be serious.

I mean he's he is really serious, but he has like that dry sense of humor, you know what I mean. I'm more like the goofy to you know. He's more of like that dry humor where it's funny when he's not trying to be. So it's it's a it's a good balance.

Do you see that in your kids any of his personality? Yes, and your son or daughter.

They're both silly, but probably my son probably has.

More of like his humor.

Okay, how is it being a mom now? You know, when we met you, you didn't have any kids on TV. Now you're a mom and you're like full blown into acting and all that stuff.

How's your life changed? I don't have a nanny.

I've never had a nanny. Wow.

So a lot of times, like if they're if they're grand the only people I let watch them is their grandparents. That's it, not even friends. So I either take them a set with me or Ryan and I we take turns to watching them, or they stay with their grandparents.

But we just make it work.

They first and that's that's it. Speaking of the grandparents. Has the relationship gotten better with Ray's mom?

Oh yeah, yeah, okay, yeah, answer that Lord time ago. We figured that out a long time ago.

Tell the real story now and let me tell them fool got involved.

Wait, that'll do it. He came through with the food, came through with the chef. He came through with the chef.

I saw something she was eating all that ship. It was it was something in your story. They always do that that I can tell that's the way to that food. They rushing us, But talk to the camera cash doll, telling them everything you got coming.

Up for cash.

Do not just look like Tracy she was and she was in my DM two.

Has it going?

What's up y'all?

If hip hop is crazy?

I mean, it's just a lot of stories and it's just our life and our culture all in one. It just means a lot to me too. And you know Tyler Perry, you know, bought beat so he working on working on it. He's gonna make it even better. So we're gonna see it grow from from whatever.

That's what I think.

One of the dopest things about you, and I've seen you in action, is you actually dj for a.

Lot of people feel like, you know, pretty girl, privileged, like, oh you're cute, they're gonna book you. That's not how DJing go because you got to think about it. These guys been doing it for fifteen years, right, and then you come and you getting paid more than them, and they feel like, why are you paying her more. I'm way better. I've been doing this shit in my sleep, like you you know what I'm saying. So sometimes people could do shit like take a plug that ain't supposed

It's not like they're like, yeah, girl, come up, we're not.

Paying nobody to kill the party.

Somebody's actually done that, Like oh yeah, yeah, sure, you got to make sure you all.

As a DJ, I would if any inspiring DJ's, I would say, make sure you bring extra plugs or extra disc because sometimes the person before you may not want to get off because he feels like it's his show. They be going too long, or they may take a disc out or something, and then now you have a problems plugging up. I never had that issue knock on because I had a good teacher that taught me that I had a train of mister chalk.

I got him out here.

You know.

I was signed to Suji who got like Little John. You know I did Vegas Karasol. Oh yeah, I rocked our this SlutWalk for Emberols shout out.

So you have you're also on TV your Revolt, you have your own show on there.

What's it called Black Girl Stuff, Black Girl Stuff, and so it's for revolt our chairman p Diddy. Of course, it's just as big as BT. You know, we revote with Focal BC. But it's it's a show called Black Girl Stuff where we uplift black women and we talk

And just anything from protective.

Styles, love life, all of that, like do we still believe in marriage anymore? Because a lot of us don't really want to get married, Like what's the purpose because everybody that got married seemed like they're getting divorces now the twenty two year people that we loved is now breaking up. Speaking, it's good questions, y'all gotta watch it. It's Tuesdays, y'all, nine o'clock five pm on Wednesday.

You know how you and my friend doing, man, I mean, we're doing good.

You know, we're family. So at the end of the day. If I block him, which I have, I gotta unblock him.

That dependsed me off to I'll be like, oh, but I mean I gotta unblock him. I mean it's family.

At some point, I'd rather the relationship be where we could talk and we like, if we're working on it, we're working on it, whatever we're doing, and we do that, then to us to be online crashing out, because that's crazy. That's why a lot of shit that I try not to even comment, even though I want you he ain't gonna do nothing but keep going, and people would like to see a show, and I'm like giving you that.

So did you accept this apology, like right when it happened.

No, I was mad. I was like, take that ship down.

Because I felt like the apology came after everything, so it kind of made it come back up. Oh you know what I'm saying. So it was random, nothing had happened. It was just like the apology had came random and people didn't understand it. But I understood he was like really trying at home outside of that apology, just even going to therapy or like just little things that he do.

What's up?

BT Worse twenty twenty three man, fifty years of hip hop? What does that mean to you?

Because everything?

I'm just blessed to be here, you know what I'm saying. Still working, still have opportunity, you know what I'm saying.

Y'all knowkay, y'all even said that you look like pretty mean.

I've been out here for two days because when I just looked at you, I just looked at you.

Like that you were looking at me. I wanted to switch just not.

Cousins related.

Yeah that's right.

How are you doing?

Oh good? We have been did this?

Yeah?

Yeah, real version?

Yeah, okay, cool, I've been good.

I'm blessed, I feel amazing, I feel good. God is working like I'm just it's it's everything. You have so many things going on. What's going on right now? I am one of the hosts for the Free Show. Yeah graduate, me and Big Lads and Jay Murphy.

So we're all going to be hit Murphy.

Yes, this is my second year doing it. So last year I had a goosebumps. I was like, ooh, I was nervous anxiety and I'm still I'm still nervous. Like I'm like oh lord, and then it's this writer strike, so you ain't got no script for real, so you got to go off the dome, which is okay because that's what we do so but but it's I feel good.

I feel good. That's what's happening right now.

So yeah, now you were one of the very first people I saw that had like a following online but transferred into real life. Do you speak on how hard that is to do, because a lot of people think that that's kind of easy because you can have an online following but sometimes just transfer into real life and do and hosts real big events.

Yeah, it doesn't always translate to money and sponsorships, like, but the fact that you can turn it into a business.

Some days it's good, some day is bad, you know. But the key thing is to stay consistent.

You know.

I've in my mind, I always know like I'm gonna turn funny in the money, you know, that's just what it is.

I like that.

Yeah, so don't still because I already trademark day period. So for me, it's more of like just pushing through cause I knew I'm not trying to be on my table forever. I'm not trying to be up with me and Dessie like yeah yeah. It Like Dessie like, look, we gotta go get some.

Money, you know.

So I think for me, I just knew, like the formula is for me is just put God first, yes, stay consistent, you know, be different, you know, stay creative and think outside the box and just do what we gotta do.

So it just stay preyed up.

You know, you are popping man and you have your hand and everything. How are you mentally?

I'm good. I thank you for that, you know, I'm good.

You know.

It's days where we feel like we're not doing enough, you know, but then I look back at what I'd already did, and I look back at what I got going on now, I'm like, oh, I'm doing a lot, you know, so I thank God for it.

So I'm doing good.

Thank you.

Yeah, I definitely hear you talk about God so much more.

I feel, like I said before, I know, sometimes when you're working and you're going, you're just moving right, but it seems like you're at a place of like calm and understanding of who you are, like even with the makeup, like less is more, you are beautiful.

I see it.

So what do you thank God for on a daily like when you wake up in the morning, what is that conversation like with God?

Peace?

That's the biggest thing.

You can't buy it. You just gotta have it, you know. Because there's so much energy that's going on in this industry that we are all in. We gotta stay preyed up.

You know.

It's good to have fun. That's what I'm gonna do. Y'all know me.

It's like what they do. I'm gonna be playing, legs up on the table, booty shakings, work and all that.

That's me.

But in the midst of that, when I'm in my secret place in my house, peace gotta go with me. I can't just come home miserable because I didn't get y'all whole show and now I'm broken. That's not gonna live in ten thirty nine West. You you grow, Okay, I'm gonna do what I gotta that's not so.
