Yeah, and what else was I did? I go d C. I went to Detroit. My popular is a hundred years old. It's actually Jessica's stepfather's father. But we family, and I wish I could

show everybody in ball Nation. But I'll show you, guys, hundred a hundred and still but he's still like lucid though, like in talking trash and correcting people when they say the wrong thing. Look at this picture, y'all know y'all can't see them Balling Nation, but I want to show you. Look at him that's back in the day when my hairline was immaculate everything. He had my style chain on you. Alright, Happy birthday ladies and gentlemen. NASTI for in case you

missed this case, Okay, ball the nation. The latest viral craze is in full effect. It's called fip switch. It's on TikTok. Most recently j Low and a Rod. That was probably one of the funniest ones. He put on the whole drap. It did the thing. But another funny one was the Elizabeth joint. Yeah, that's my favorite. I love Elizabeth War's a little moves. But but the girl from cann hold her face. Yeah, it's like you look crazy. That's my favorite TikTok right there so far, did y'all

do it? I think we should do it. I should do it. Did y'all Did y'all see Rory's hilarious? It was her idea Rory was actually, yeah, I was talking, called the slip to switch challenge. Yeah, that was I was talking. We had to do what she did. She was tworking that he worked to turn the water on. Turn the water on. It isn't about the water. Why does it happen? It's in the video you hear. I mean it's in it's in the song. You hear the water come on, So everyone just turns the water on,

wasteful and then waste some water. I like the whole thing. We got some don't switch challenge. You shouldn't to us. We could post shimonya me speaking of viral better yet a virus. Donald Trump is the most irresponsible president ever, ever, a person of power ever. First of all, he's ignoring the health experts and about you know, about the coronavirus right and basically, you know, doubling down that there's there's nothing wrong and that they're gonna figure it out and

they got it under control. Now, mind you, he is in the high percentile category to get it. But they're not really doubling down to telling you that. It's like older people are getting this disease and dying from it. You're seventies something years old, Mr Trump, you could be. And they just had something We just posted that he shook somebody's hand who has the virus. But it's the same man who took his glasses off and looked at

the eclipse. I mean, but he's just so irresponsible, and I mean it's coronavirus, y'all, Like this is I mean, I don't know if y'all saw my my story yesday, but might be I got me wiping down seats. I mean you should, yeah, but but but I think it's a cold. I wiped down the whole time I was traveling every place I went. But it's a cold, y'all. People more people are dying from the actual flu exactly. It reminds me of the ones they called. They called that the plague back in the day the plague was.

I mean, I thought that was a cold to like, I find it interesting that they're canceling Ultra and they're canceling the Olympics. They might be canceling. They didn't tell me yet, but they're like they're canceling things for no reason. They might be canceling some NBA games or not games. They might not let the fans come to the game. And lebron as I'm not playing it. I mean, my thing is, you can't live in fear, y'all. This is like the Orange alert and the Red alert in the

airports when terrorism was. You can't live in ignorance, Like you can't just go off of what the media is saying like, do your own research and then you guys will learn that the coronavirus is really not as serious as they're making a sound. There are way more people that are healing from it than not. They just said somebody had took as a treatment in Spain spaying older and older, and he basically HIV. I'm sorry, HIV medicine

helped cure his corona sickness. But they know, y'all, y'all know this is one big conspiracy theory to drive the account. And then you know that's your boy trying to play it off. Donald Dump. He trying to play it all because his election coming here and want no smoke because he saw what the stock market has done. I mean, it's gone to hell. People losing money, dot com people here. See,

that's the tricky thing. I'm glad you asked that if they bring if they bring in a vaccine, vaccine is to give you the I think it's to put it in your body so you can fight it. I don't believe in all that anyway. I was just having an argument with Jessica, like telling her, I don't think I agree with having my children vaccinating. I just believe that they put stuff in our bodies. Well, the coronavirus sounds like a cash cow. It does. Boy. I started in

my mind to myself. I was like, Man, I wonder how much money the pharmaceutical people gonna make their economy because they're going to buy all the disinfect that all the toilet paper. I don't know if you just saw the thing we posted the girl in Europe or something, they were totally paper. The girl had took all the toilet paper. Were they're taking. They're buying out all the toilet paper, paper, towels, lightstyle wipes and hands. That's how I clean my shoes. I'm mad right now because I

don't win the publics. You know. That's my secret form of how to clean sneaker. Wait, what do you use? No white makeup? Wife, Revlin? My wife joins me, going to to take all that ship off your face is gonna take it, But I do. I do the lightsol

wipes too, because it's of course it's the lights. I clean the bottom of mine, because, oh God Jesus Christ, once you're wearing once in the street, you can never put your lips on the bottom of Kroger actually has signs up only allowing people to buy things in like like lightsol or hand sanitizer. Five at the time, people are cleaning the shelves and they're like, yo, we cannot accommo everybody, so you can the masks they're taking off,

all the masks even work. Were to leave the mask for the people, for the medical people, the people that are treating the people with the illness, like, let them have the mask. As long as you have a decent or healthy immune system. You are right, Yeah, Like y'all are tripping bro y'all have to cost me a bag downtown for the final four ladies and gentlemen. I saw the sixth thing ever on social media? Did y'all see the fifteen year old girl in Brooklyn getting stomped out

by some kids? What could the girl have done? And I wouldn't immediately to thinking about what what could she have done for that? I don't give if she was gangbanging, if she you know what I'm saying, we're talking ship, I mean, if she pulled a guy. I mean, what could she have done to get stomped out like that? What I read is she got into a fight with another girl at school and she beat this girl up and I guess these guys are her friends or they want to take off for her, whatever the case is.

But it's absolutely disgusting. It definitely brought me to tears, and I feel so I just feel so bad for this one time, for the mama that saw her son into melee, took his took his add to the police. Turn yourself in. Yeah, I don't understand who how y'all raised? What what in your mind clicks that you're gonna put your hands and feet on a woman like that? I mean period, But like you kid, I mean they could have killed that little girl they were jumping. Yeah, unbelievable,

ladies and gentlemen. Brooklyn is on some bullshit this week. Did y'all hear about the Brooklyn photographer that issuing Bella Hardi for posting a picture of herself. They've been doing that, you know, Kim kardask alert Oh yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely nothing. Yeah yeah, not this Brooklyn photographer, but they have sued us, and they've been definitely targeting people like

Bella because they're high profile. First perspective, it's like you're a photographer, The question is do you think that someone rich and famous who you take a picture of should not be able to post their pictures of themselves that you've taken. I'm still I think they still should be able to post. They still should be able to post a picture, but they shouldn't be trying to monetize the picture because after the monetize their entire social media. So

that's the kind of oxymoron. I mean true, but it's just it's just like a great line with certain images. But the client still they still allowed to use the image. But who's exactly who's just saying If you're running up on me in the street and you take my picture and I like the picture, you don't have no right. I'm not giving you permission to take my picture. You took my picture like I ain't gotta ask. You ain't got nothing. You took my picture. That's not bad thing

about it. You will have to give that. You have to give up a time with the right. But as soon as the tiper hit the shuttle their own all actual the image they take, even even if the person is not a time, who have to take the picture on all rights no matter what. So the pictures you're taking to me and my family tomorrow night for the new BYR and that's collection. I cannot post those photos without your permission. I paid. Yeah, that's what I mean legally,

but hey, i'm paying him. The client can still post. But she was, Yeah, you're paying them, but y'all have to have an agreement. I think I ain't never had no agreement. Alright, what if you'll strangers and you didn't know him. You still pay for your photos, but when they put they put the shoot they bug into for like marketing advertising purposes, so it's okay for them still posted. Well, I think that if you are a Papa Rozzi and you catch your celebrity unwarranted, let's just say they don't.

They're not. They're thinking you're gonna be pop and then they post your picture. I think they should be able to do that if you are in if you are in a relationship and you are being hired to take, you're being paid for a service. I also think they

should be able to shoot. Now, the only thing I think that works in the photox favor is if you're asked to take a picture, you take it, and then they publicize it and don't get your permission or basically used you for your service and didn't you know what I'm saying. I don't think that you know what they're talking to. People would sell bad photos of me. Let's say they caught you off guard or something like, why do you get to sell that? And and I can't make a joke on myself or or just post it

on my page. I think the laws have to change in regards to like paparazzi. They're very day, they're very aggressive. Now they're getting on kids. There's just no boundaries. And the fact that you can sue someone after taking a picture of them that they more than likely was not prepared for you to take. It's a problem. It's a

problem speaking of boundaries. Y'all see the video of the girl putting the camera phone in baby face, the baby saying he put the camphone hit him in the face and he slapped He didn't he could not have seen her. When you finally saw the vicar, you saw his public apology, and I think that was big, big, big, big of him. I think that was more of a statement rather than I think it was a statement, But I think it was big with him for acknowledge that one. Because he

puts himself he's liable at this point right. Second of all, though the girl hit him in the face, he could not it was no way. She came from his left side peripheral. He turned the phone hit him in the face. He turned immediately reactionary. It was a reaction hit her and kept it, kept kept moving. So my thing is like, y'all got to be more careful, y'all putting these things the people's face. I don't think that from what I watched it like twenty times, I don't think he looked

and saw a girl and then like this. I think he reacted really fast, and then once he realized after the after the droning, and came down, and he came to his damn, since he realized that he hit a woman, he was catching he for that ship. He shouldn't have did that security he should not. My thing is he didn't know. My thing is he just I just think in general he shouldn't have did that. Like the thing about him not knowing that it was a woman. Though in his statement or slash apology he said man or

a woman, I would have responded the same way. So I think he's he is sorry that it was a woman, but he's not sorry because he's saying, I reacted the way that I reacted, like, that's just what it was. But I just think at this point in his career, he's need he needs to step out of whatever that mentality is that he has. I don't know, media trintality. I don't know what it is. But you are a celebrity. Now you're going to have to deal with fans being

overly aggressive, wanting to get videos of you. You're gonna have to deal with that. These are people that are coming to support you. Have your staff in place so that you cannot be touched or bothered, and if you are, let them deal with it. Brother, is media training. People have to be trained, you know, to be a certain way. It's just like when Diane and the Supremes first came out, they were really grow up girls from the projects. They had to get an etiquette coach on how to speak,

on how to move and everything. And now look at Dina Ross to this day. You need a certain training to be a certain way, you know what, especially in the public eye. Facts. I agree, speaking of the public eye, ladies and gentlemen. This shooting Atlantic small Atlantic, Yeah, that's crazy. I don't I don't video circulating, I mean over pocket space, right. But but you know, I want to say this to the police. I want to say this to the Mark

Simon mall because you go to that mall often. You know what I'm saying, y'all got to do something about people's safety. I don't give a fuck how much it costs. You know what I'm saying, Like this is on real tax and crazy anyway. I mean, but it's seriously though, Like this is like this is like the fifth shooting in twelve months. And they let him sit there too. These kids, they think it's it's the fourth shooting with in four months, but this is the first deadly shooting.

And this is a problem. Yeah, and and these kids. You know, I'm not stereotyping anyone, nor am I taking away anyone's hustle. I want you to sell water. I want you to get Even a guy came up to me one day, he was so real. We went to the True Food one time. The little boy came up with some box of crackers or something trying to sell to Yeah. But my thing, it comes to me all

the time, and I'm with the hustle. And if you come up to me with the white peace, say I've given money to you know, saying, But at the same time, it's like it's certain motherfucker's that's not supposed to be hovering around them all, you know what I mean. And

I'm not talking about the stereotypical. I'm talking about literal energy and what you need to provide to keep the good energy and safe energy in place, because it's just I mean, I don't know, and I think I'm blessed with like the ability to like feel things, you know what I mean, my entire life. The night I got locked up in high school, I knew I was and locked up. It was just things I knew, like you know what I'm saying, when I was having a child,

knew Jessica was pregnant with anyone. I know, I have a feeling about people and things right at the same time, y'all know what look out of place and it's got to hurt the business of the mall too. That's a

nice mall. The I don't think it is. It's a sad part like because I think I think, you know, even like she said, four shootings Atlantics and former and we still go like I know for a fact, I was sitting in True Food Eating when the Macy's girl got shot and ain't nobody, ain't nobody leaves and it was it was almost like, but I don't want that to be the new normal. I don't want that to be the new normal. I don't even want people to

be in turns into lintics to ghet the mall. But it ain't even though we know what some ghetto malls that I'm just saying, like for an out of town or who don't know, like, oh, that's where the shooting, where all the shoots happened. Yeah, now that's where everything nice is and that's what you know. You can get the better best selection. Come on, everybody ain't getting the energy. Is energy is off at least when you got to

South to cav like you know what I mean. You can't expect the injurgy some American you're funny with your your hood, your hood with it sometimes how it comes. Uh, this is something very very very very important. I want you all to hear this next thing, y'all, And I would love other schools across the world to do this. The Louisiana High School principle requires photos of prim dresses for approval. I see that, I just change. Come on, come on with the bullshit, change with the time. Let

me tell you why I disagree. Come on, come on. We have to understand that women have different body types and sometimes people judge you, judge your attire based off your body type. That doesn't mean that the dresses out of dress code. It means that she don't like the dress on you. That's a problem. You can't speak for the Louisian the principal school, No, I cannot. But again I'm saying, some people judge based off of body type. What looks good on one person you may not like

on somebody else. So my fear is that it's going to come down to that, who does she think looks best in this dresser? How good do I think? I don't know about that. I think I think you have guidelines and say hey, this is not appropriate, this is not appropriate. This is sending that to the parents. Let the parents know what the guidelines are and let the parents run. But to have to send you a photo is too much. I'm not sending you a photo of

my dress. I'm not doing that. You know, there are clearly some things that are happening in the school where they're getting a little turped above the time. Problem is very aggressive. Like if we looked at prompt patres last year, I've seen a lot of girls wear a dresses and I was like, Wow, this is your senior problem. It's too Now. I agree with that there has to be some order. It's going to martial law on the goddamn

problem dresses. Huh with martial laws just have some serious consequences like but but don't asked me to send your address Like, I just think that's just too much. Listen to my CTO w from types to school the other day, I said, she came home. I randomly make sure I'm at the house. And kids aren't actually aren't as mature, you know what I'm saying. They sometimes to being personable. Listen, y'all,

my baby was some typs. And now keep in mind she didn't want these types before beginning of the school year. The types ain't fit. How they're fitting out a little but poking out now, Well, no, I don't like the type. She was like, I just wore them a couple of months ago. With ship, Hey man, goddamn, put a guy down around that ship. I think it's in station and I think they're they're just honestly, I feel like women

are constantly asked for like all this extra stuff. I think, have the guidelines, have images of what's appropriate to hap. How about say, are you a feminist? Can wait to sue has a child don't want to know? Are you a feminist enjoying this? Maybe I am, but I just I just think it's successive. And I think that a lot of times women get judged based on the body type. I want you to have three women, three girls. I want whatever. I'm blessed. I understand what you're saying too,

but I also understand what the principal is doing. And with with I seen a big girl where it's a little bit of shorts and was like, oh, yeah, guess guess guess what. Guess what? Some stuff is appropriate. That's not right. It's not appropriate for a young woman to go to And then we're not excuse me, let me just preference the conversation. We're not talking about big women

in particular. I am making a point. It's like if my daughter is overweight and she's a fan of Lizzo and she thinks she could go to school and do a lizzle, that's not happening. I'm sorry, what if your daughter is not overweight and she's a fan of we're talking about that in particular because we're just we're making a point that because you Yeah, I don't think it has any side to my point that people can judge based off their body type most of the time because

you can't wear tight. You can wear a boot listen if it's if it's right at the knee, fine, But if you're going up and you can fucking move and your couches showing no couchie cutters on do you can't child to go to her problem like that? Who's wearing coochie cutters? The problem whoever? So what I said was, let's have guidelines and say this is not appropriate, and

this is That's all I'm saying. I think that's what the principle is saying, though, But you still want to send me, send me your picture so I can approve if I'm okay with this stress. I don't have nothing to do with that. Like, tell me what the guidelines are and let my mama. It's just like any place that has rules when they grow up. You can't wear certain things to work, you can't be outside what if the principles and and are you comfortable, lady with your daughters?

What if the principle if hell no, no, what he's a creep? No way, what you mean people had my daughter's pictures in there? Nope? That is what's that called sexist? That statement of sexist. It's a lot of a lot of predators out here, I think. So you think I think we're going too far with it. Exactly. So you're saying a principle of a school that's a male can't say that a woman should wear something. I'm sorry, a girl a student at his school. I think if something

is inappropriate, perfect a dress it. But if a man, let's say, if the man the principle was a guy, are you comfortable with this man telling your minor child to send him photos of her in her dress? But she's saying to parents asking the child and you gotta think about it to what do you got to think about this to these kids? These and spend most of the time at school, they're around these teachers and stuff. Majority of times they hear their conversations, they're like, Oh,

I'm gonna be worried. Let me do this before it even gets out. If it was a male principle, he would incorporate a woman and that conversation. In that conversation, well, I think I think the principle was going to the parents that they're not going to the child. I don't think they're going to the child. Yeah, So anyway, you can hear more solo views or nine four five mornings with Young Jockein Uh shout and shouted, and now we're from our sponsors and now it's time for baller man.

That's it. I almost killed my husband. I'm stuck and I don't know what to do. My husband of five years cheated on me with my sister. The thing is, he doesn't know that I know yet. My sister told me. Yes, my sister, my older blood sister. The only reason she told me is because she's pregnant. I'm completely heartbroken because my sister is pregnant with my husband's son. She's a daughter with my sister, and he is about to have

my niece or nephew. What the fuck? Yeah, it's do I approach him or do I block him forever and never speak to him again. Nor Lord knows what I really want to do. Kids. We don't have any kids together. And they started hooking up after going out together a few times without my knowledge. What the funk? Yeah, Block and Boss, they both got to be gone him man, and her family ain't ain't you know? They obviously ain't with how your sister did you. Yeah, I'm gonna tell

you something. It's no way you're getting around that. You can't stay. You can't. You're gonna see that baby and your sister the rest of your life. They ever talked to them again. So imagine if she stayed with the dude. So you got you got that in the back of your mind. I don't leave. You might forgive. You got a child, this is a stepson, niece, whatever, but she gotta take kids. Had a child, be in the house with the child, be around the child, then you gotta

see your sister. That's a triangle of hell of torture. I'm out. You can't. I don't even I don't. I'm disappearing out. I'm not even gonna talk to neither one of y'all want this. That's what I'm saying. Paperwork, you know, I want to say this. Man, it's so many other options out there. Then to funk with your wife's system, trying to tell you break up with your husband, like, it's so many other options, man, and you know it's crazy, y'all. I don't want to share this with y'all. I know

a situation like that. I know a situation not sisters, but like brothers. You know what I'm saying, mess with you know what I mean? And it's like, how do you do that? You can't be around nor more you, Katie. I can't even funk with you. No more my friends, friends, but not fun with you, know what I'm saying, Like, I just, I just I just leave a little more context clues on on what's going on and the thought

process on on these actions. I didn't understand why he would do that, you know, and why your sister would want to do that. I don't understand. She said they started hooking up after going out together a few times without my knowledge. Yeah, but that's just it's other options, y'all. If you're cheating this ship, I'm not suggesting you do for you ain't got to pick your partners because significant other, your family, significant other, somebody. You can't do that. You'll

remember so fulled cousin faith. Yes, I understood. Like the lady was like kind of be little and she was, you know, doing the wrong stuff like that. But yea, not the cousin. But I'm just gonna leave. I don't exactly what. I don't got to state, but I'm just saying that they were too So why would you even go somewhere like that because you're weak in the flesh, you dirty fucking dog. I don't care. Don't kill your husband because you're gonna go to jail and many worth it.

Don't kill him, you know not, don't kill him physically, just yourself from his life. And they don't have any kids. You can just leave. Can at it like, I don't understand what's going on to figure out just the husband and cheets on his wife with the sister. Maybe the sister has and this is just me assuming. Maybe maybe he feels like, damn, I should have been with his sister.

Maybe the I don't know, maybe I was meant to be with this she wasn't a twin ladies, And Jensen said, and now a word from our sponsors, and now it's time for comment. Creeping alrighting, guys. So you know people have been talking about the state of music. Yes, you know, of course, some people like the new music that's out these days. Some people are pairing it to music from back in the day, and whatever your opinion is, music

is music and it obviously relates to many people. So Meek Mill actually hit Twitter to say the young artists got the older artists shook. After further review, I'm gonna just be the first to say it. I'm gonna like y'all asses up when it's my turn though, keep snapping young bulls, and he acknowledges artists like Little Baby, Oozy, NBA, Roddy Dub Baby, Herbal Megan. It's more but they all

shaking ship right now from what I'm seeing. I actually I like the list of artists that he um that he acknowledged, and I do agree that they are obviously doing very well. I do think the biggest difference between artists now and then is these artists understand what it means to own their content, to own their music, like they're actually coming in on the business side, whereas before, I think a lot of older artists were, you know, they relying on the labels, like everything had to be

done through the labels. They didn't understand the back end. Then there's also streaming, which is a whole lot more income now than than ever, So I think that's the difference. But as far as music, music changes all the time. It inspires different people for different reasons. And if you're not hearing what you want to hear on mainstream, just go look forward. All genres still people all still here. So please don't feel like good music or your music

is non existent, because it's here. You're just not looking for you find it. You know what I want to just add to that, You know what do y'all think about making it the band? Do you think that it would have the same And I'm asking this now, is the making the band going to be R and B only? He said, he's making two super army groups, one female, one for I'm here for if the music is done, get good contracts this time? Oh you know those TV those TV show contracts are trashed though. Yeah, But but

I want to say this, who watches MTV? But you know what we do watch is Netflix. And that's another thing I was saying, like what that got to do with because those shows they're on Netflix now, like the one with Cardi b t I and yeah, with the commercials and everything with the making the band shows on MTV and BT and all that stuff now, you know, versus the ones that's on um Netflix and you can

watch at any time. I think that's more popular now. Well, I think I think we're making the band it's more so nostalgic for people than anything else like that, Like when you think about it, you're constantly thinking of like what the cheesecake, the Cambodian breast milk, or what every

case is like the nostalgic moments, you know. But I think, Um, I think it's it's interesting to see, like how it's going to pan out, because I think I think the perception of Ditty is kind of changing a little bit, to be honest, I think I think people are really kind of like digging in a little more. And I like that component. I love that p with the kids on there, because they are the next generation, you know, they have their own little thing going on. They're getting booked,

the clubs, they're released, Like, I get it. I'm curious to see how it's going to turn out. Which one is the one, um, the one that looks just like him? What's his name again, Christian? Christian? Christian? I like him? Want to ask last question of music, and then we're gonna get the confusion. Says, but do y'all think that the Megan Stallion one thing? Like, what do y'all think about that? I have a funny perspective on it to and um, I will say that I don't think there's

anything wrong with someone wanting to renegotiate something. Right when you when you learn more, you want better. So she wanted to go back and try to renegotiate. I don't think there's anything wrong with that. However, it is kind of I understand the business side, how we're going to renegotiate and you haven't even fulfilled this existing contract. I understand. I just want to say I think it's a risk. It was a risk on both parts. I was there

and I was a part of the process. Um megan to stay, went by Tina Snow, she came to Alanna. They were actually pushing somebody else. She wasn't the front runner of the label. They were pushing somebody else. Didn't want to have a let him and Jack and to prove uh. And I'm in communication with everybody there. Um. I just remember they were like, oh and this is such a such you know, she's dope. So this is around the time she signed the deal. She signed a

contract everything. At that particular moment, her song wasn't out yet. Towards the end of two thousand, seventeen CORECT early two eighteen, UM, Big Old Freaks started catching, then it started blowing up. Now she supersedes everyone else on the label that they're pushing.

She's now she's the front runner because she says she wasn't getting attention then exactly because I was me and mean if I got DC without d C. We was moving around in Atlanta and we were saying, hey, fifteen one because we were doing work for T Ferris without T Ferris. Um. Just so everybody knows, she's saying T Ferris was the one who always we always communicate with T Fairs. I never we only spoke to Big Dog twice. UM,

Big Old Free Star getting this doing this thing. She's the front runner now, contract already signed two seventeen, and at that time she wasn't you know what I'm saying. So at that point, the deal is kind of cool because you know, you got your little fifteen k. She's in college. When you're a college student fifteen thousand, I don't know about you all, but way more than that refund check refund check to grands. Let's think about this.

Two seventeen was only three years ago, and I'm she doing the thing so now and then for ten years and don't get she goes to Rock Nation, she getting show money. Now she hasn't fulfilled the contract yet. And now you've got real lawyers, You've got real people that can read that contract, can tell you, oh, this is what you shouldn't negotiate it. But at that time, and you signed to a boutique label. You didn't sign to def jam. You signed to a label that put all

the money up for you. That now that that's the thing that's throwing me off. Did they put all the money up for her or did she have to pay out of her profit she had? First of all, anytime you signed a new deal with anybody, you don't sign because you don't need them. Whatever that exchange was, they did, and she started making When she starts making money, yes, if she has something going on and the labels taking

a second, you need to get it done. Yeah you're gonna pay for you're making money now, But don't forget that. Dn't keep in mind. I'm cool I'm super cool with man. So I'm just saying this is all facts. I'm saying, don't forget the part where when you didn't have a bad who at least helped a little bit. Well, of course it was a risk for both parts. But it's like, it's not like a Cardi basis. But I'm just saying, I'm just saying that paperwork of devil is in the paperwork,

but it ain't with the people. That's that's that's just standard. That's just standard music industreet w one from the beginning of time, and whoever all them guys got sucked up in that paperwork. And that's what I wanted. I just wanted to kind of all y'all because I'm I'm gonna get into my go ahead. Y'all got y'all got, you got everything out, and now it's time for Confucius says. So my little tidbit to that is defined success for yourself.

And part of defining success for yourself is knowing the business. You cannot go through life and expect people to have your best interests first. This is not that world. People are successful on the backs of others, and I wanted to bring that conversation up at the end of South segment, because I feel like, at the end of the day, you've seen so many people get shipped on in music, in business in general. So why wouldn't you if you believe in your talent, you double down on your superpowers.

Why would you not go through the fine print, hire people to go through and help you understand what you're signing. You have to you know what I'm saying. You have to lock in and know your business. That's that's part of the finding success for yourself. And and my young jet over here wants to finish it, says, well, no, no, I forgot Yeah, take your time nowhere, It's gonna be right here waiting fain go forth balling nation now was rory says God, damn the dream with real. I love

that man, I love that woman. She fired up. It's right here. It's just too solo, right check out mornings or not for you
