Speaker 6 (04:15):
All right, his way up. I'm here, Mano's here, no mana.
And you know what a tough day ky Sanat yesterday.
You know, he was very emotional. He was on Live
and he said people have been telling him you shouldn't
get on live during a time like this, but he's
talking about these allegations that his cameraman, who was also
his friend Chris was allegedly sexting with a minor. The
(04:39):
young girl in the text messages said that she lied
about being nineteen, so originally he thought she was nineteen,
but then when she said I'm actually seventeen, I wouldn't
do you like that.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
He continued to send these sext messages to her.
Speaker 6 (04:52):
Now here is Ky Sanat talking about the whole situation
and having to fire his cameraman.
Speaker 11 (04:57):
I'll he connected his situations up early in twenty twenty one,
this was caught talking to somebody that's not the age
of consent.
Speaker 4 (05:06):
She lot about her age. She ended up saying her
age said she was seventeen. Right at that moment, you're
supposed to stop texting. And I'm just sick and tired.
Speaker 11 (05:15):
Of how you do it like this because it's like, damn,
like somebody who helped me start our host.
Speaker 6 (05:23):
Yeah, I mean, I'm sure he's emotional because it's like,
why would you make such a poor decision?
Speaker 2 (05:27):
You know, you know, we got a lot going on
right now, you risked all of this.
Speaker 11 (05:31):
Oh.
Speaker 6 (05:32):
I don't know how old he is, but what I
do know is that girl was under age and told
him her real age and she said she had just
turned seventeen. Also, by the way, she's now nineteen years old.
So this did happen December of twenty twenty one through
February March of twenty twenty two. And she said that
he was just being flirtatious and then texting wild issues
(05:52):
shouldn't say to a minor during that time, and so yeah,
that's you know, and for Kays and now I'm sure
he's feeling like, like, I built myself up to this
point and why would you do that? It came around
was twenty one at the time, sexting her all right. Now,
on the brighter side of things, you know, Kevin Hart
loves him some Kay Sanat, and he said that he
(06:13):
would like him to play him in a future movie,
a future bio pic.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
Here is what he had to say.
Speaker 4 (06:19):
Oh my god, am I that old? Are we getting
there in a perfect world in the future?
Speaker 12 (06:23):
Because I got a feeling that they'll be able to
knock it out the part because of where they'll be
Ky Sanat, cut the dreads and stuff all. I think
he can get in there and pull out a phenomenal,
phenomenal performance.
Speaker 6 (06:34):
All right, this is an interview he did with Vibe
for his new movie Borderlands. Now, Kaysen, I was excited
about this. Here's what he said in the movie.
Speaker 13 (06:43):
Bro.
Speaker 4 (06:43):
I don't know what he sees in me, Bro, but
he really feels like I can go to the next level. Bro,
and he b he just helps me outlev it on
so much levels.
Speaker 11 (06:52):
Bro.
Speaker 6 (06:53):
All right, that's nice when you have somebody as big
as Kevin Hart that is putting his hand on your shoulder, like, Yo.
Speaker 4 (06:58):
You got this actual organic liking to you, nothing else
to do with it, just helps you, just to help you.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
Yeah, my makeup art is key.
Speaker 6 (07:08):
She was telling me she watched the full entire stream
when Kevin Hart was on Accustin.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
I was a long one, but she said it was
so funny.
Speaker 6 (07:14):
Her son made to watch it, and she was thoroughly
entertained to see the two of them together. All right,
well that is your yut when we come back. I
cannot wait to hear about last night. May know, you
were doing some things to the point where someone called
me this morning and was like I was with Mano
last night.
Speaker 4 (07:29):
Wow.
Speaker 6 (07:30):
And this all has to do with elections and voting
and conversations and black men.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
I can't wait to talk about it. It's way up.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
So about last night, Yes, I went down last night.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
It's way up.
Speaker 6 (07:45):
I'm here, Mano's here, man, and it's time for about
last night now.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Mayno. This morning someone called and told me they saw
you last night. Charles Suit.
Speaker 4 (07:54):
Shout out to him Suit.
Speaker 6 (07:56):
Yes, he has his own publishing company and he signed
a lot of amazing book deals for people like Pinky
Cole and Steven A.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
Smith. And may now we see you all right now
talk to me about what you were doing last night.
Speaker 3 (08:08):
Shout out to my guy James McMillan, heavy lawyer in
the game, been in the game out of the years.
He put together this dinner in Brooklyn chop house, you know,
black men coming together to speak about the climate of
this election. And I stopped by man and you know,
and I listened a lot, and I spoke a little
(08:28):
bit and heard some interesting things and some interesting perspectives
on the whole climate where we're at right now, and
as far as you know, the election and uh Kama
running and how people felt about it. But the most
thing I got out of it is this, they feel
like the less of two evils, right, and we can't
(08:53):
just not do anything and you.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Know what, there's no candidate that will ever be perfect.
That's the other thing. So you have to look at
it like who aligns more with what I believe?
Speaker 6 (09:04):
And who do I also look at their administration and say,
I like who they have in position for certain things,
because we've heard of some things that Trump plans to
do if he takes office. And I mean, I just think,
even just alone the whole giving police immunity, it's enough
to be like, Okay, what is really happening?
Speaker 2 (09:26):
It though, and it's interesting to me. Another thing.
Speaker 6 (09:29):
When I was talking to Charles this morning, he was
talking about not being disrespectful to a black woman because
you see all the things that are being done. Not
only is she a woman, she's a black woman, she's
an Indian woman, but they also are definitely attacking her
for those reasons. I see an article in a New
York Post today. Let me read you this headline about
(09:50):
Kamala Harris. It says Kamala Harris's much older lover gave
her a BMW and salary boosting job as she climbed
Democratic Party rings. And so they're talking about when she
was a young prosecutor in nineteen ninety four. They're bringing
up this Willie Brown situation again, Willie Brown where she
was gifted at BMW, and Trip said, what does that
(10:12):
have to do?
Speaker 4 (10:13):
But this is what they do.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
But it's attacking right this woman, right, the.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
Muslinging and the name calling, and then you know they're
trying to change the narrative and create this energy around
her that have people like how we are right now,
like man, I ain't voting, many don't matter, but.
Speaker 6 (10:30):
The disrespect should be enough also for people to be like,
is this what we want from our country?
Speaker 2 (10:33):
A bunch of people who are disrespectful to women?
Speaker 4 (10:37):
Yeah? People not going to look at it like that.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
All right, Well that is about last night. Now, you
know when we come back, what we have, what we're having?
A twix?
Speaker 6 (10:44):
Okiddy, tell us a secret. Eight hundred to ninety two
fifty one fifty it's the number. If you don't stop
eating that twist, go ahead and try.

Drinking and drinks with a pupe in it.
Speaker 10 (13:17):
I would dump half of it out and you taste

it for two years.

Speaker 4 (13:41):
So why you just don't leave him then instead of going,

Speaker 10 (13:45):
Because there was a situation of living.
Speaker 11 (13:47):
I know.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
Let me ask you this, Are you still sleeping with
him and kissing him and stuff? He okay, listen, that's discussing.

you ever found out? Oh my god?

Speaker 10 (14:14):

Speaker 2 (14:14):
Figures see, that's why you can't just leave you. I
have open water bottles around. Well, that was tell us
a secret.
Speaker 6 (14:20):
Thank you guys for sharing and for calling eight hundred
and two ninety two fifty one fifty. And when we
come back, we have your yet And apparently if Drake
don't like you, you're not allowed to perform in Toronto.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
We'll talk about it.
Speaker 7 (14:32):
It's way up the rooms from industry shade to all
the gods that out angelas spilling that et.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
All right, it's way up. I'm here, Mayno's in the building.
Speaker 4 (14:44):
Wait, wait, way up?
Speaker 2 (14:46):
Do you consider yourself petty?
Speaker 5 (14:48):
No?
Speaker 6 (14:49):
Okay, yes, well I want to talk about this situation,
so sir, and you know he's on TDE. He was
supposed to be performing in Toronto at this venue called History,
it's a concert venue, and it got canceled, all right,
he said, we're working on the rescheduling for a later date.
And he said, for those wondering, we sold that show out.
It was canceled by the venue.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Not sure why. My apologies again to those who came
just to see me. Now.
Speaker 6 (15:13):
The venue did not provide a reason for the cancelation.
They didn't respond to any request for comments. The event
was removed from their official website. And you know, Schoolboy
Q was supposed to be out there in Toronto. They
canceled his show at History at that same venue. And
so it seems like if anybody that Drake doesn't like
(15:34):
is what people are starting to.
Speaker 4 (15:35):
Feel anybody affiliated with his ops.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
Now Mac walk from TDE actually spoke on this whole situation.
Here's what he said.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
Word around town is Dre is in cahoots with this venue.
Speaker 4 (15:46):
He got probably a little equity in the venue.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
I'm not sure allegedly.
Speaker 16 (15:51):
Anybody that was on that pop out stage they're getting
canceled this he performing at this particular venue.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
It's called the History.
Speaker 11 (15:59):
And now what I'm my suggestion is nobody performed at
the History because they will cancel your show if drakema
like you.
Speaker 4 (16:07):
Mm, that's petty, like it though the active.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
War Yeah, like it, like book them and then cancel
at the last minute.
Speaker 4 (16:17):
We ain't gonna have them over there. No, But like
he did it with his accent. I feel like he
called up familiar with his accent. No no, no, no,
dune them, dund them. I feel like he did that
just like that.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
I feel like we're hearing more about it. At some point.
Speaker 6 (16:30):
Now, let's talk about love and hip hop Atlanta. Rashida
and Kirk. It feels like they have quite the storyline
this season. You know, they had a lot of drama
a few years ago when Kirk was exposed for having
a baby with another woman, Jasmine Blue. Well, last night's episode,
the three of them sat down, that is, Rashida Kirk
for us in Jasmine Blue and had a conversation. She
(16:53):
confronted Kirk for allegedly not paying child support for their son,
and Rashida was also present during this conversation.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
Here is what it sounded like. Hello, Rashida, Okay, I
haven't seen you in years.
Speaker 4 (17:04):
I have not good to see you as well.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
It's just an awkward one.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
No one husband really wants to call this type of
meaning because it's incredibly awkward to kind of be in
this position.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
Do you realize you didn't even attend Cannon's last birthday?
Speaker 4 (17:18):
Because where were you at?
Speaker 15 (17:19):
That's the same party that I have paid for and
pay for the gifts? Correct when we was in mediation,
do you even remember what we agreed on?
Speaker 8 (17:27):
Oh man, that's an uncomfortable situation, I know, but pay
for things does not take away being there, right.
Speaker 3 (17:32):
But by the way, so how does Rashida feel? I mean,
they they probably are pretty much already because the show
got to be like what my FoST six years old
right now?
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Yeah, this happened in twenty seventeen years Oh.
Speaker 4 (17:42):
Yeah, original already they already locked in. You already know
who they are.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
Yeah, that's a tough thing. You ever see the movie Fences?
Speaker 4 (17:49):
Yeah? I saw that, all right.
Speaker 6 (17:50):
Well, if you haven't seen it, it happens, all right,
Well that is your Yet. We have so much more
to get to and we'll discuss it later because I
want to make sure we get into this fifty cent
article interview that he did with the Hollywood Reporter. But
we'll get to that later. In the meantime, we have
under the radar when we come back. These are the
stories that are not necessarily in the headlines. They're flying
(18:10):
under the radars.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
Way up.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
Check the news.
Speaker 7 (18:14):
News, this in the news that relates to you. These
stories are flying under the radar, all.
Speaker 6 (18:19):
Right, this way up, Angela yee manos in the building. Yeah,
not nobody else, not nobody else. You know what it is,
right all right? Now, Apparently they're saying that Nike has
lost twenty five billion dollars after aggressively cutting partnerships with
the retail brands like foot Locker. They want to really
go direct to consumer. Now, the company is backtracking its
(18:40):
plans and will continue to work with retailers in order
to win back consumers. So they had thirty year long
partnerships with wholesalers and retail distributions like foot Locker, and
they wanted people to go to Nike dot com. They
fired thousands of key employees who built its retail division
and focused all on digital. But that did not convert,
and so they're going to have to figure out how
(19:01):
to get it back. All right, Wow, you notice that
have does anybody notice that?
Speaker 3 (19:07):
I mean, it just don't feel the same. It doesn't
feel the same as far as the Nike craze.
Speaker 6 (19:14):
But you know, as somebody who knows having to deal
with retail, direct to consumer is always the best way
to make a profit. But if you can mass sell
in places like they have been, you know that definitely
is valuable and worth it.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
So being able to ramp all of those things up,
all right.
Speaker 6 (19:30):
Donald Trump is very upset at Vice President Kamala Harris.
She had her rally in Atlanta yesterday, and we all
know you all saw Megan the Stallion performing, right, and
Quavo made a surprise appearance. But Trump went on his
truth social and said, crazy Kamala Harris voted the worst
president in American history, worst vice president in American history.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
Sorry, needed a concert.
Speaker 6 (19:55):
To bring people into the Atlanta arena, and they started
leaving five minutes into her speech. I don't need con
or entertainers. I just have to make America great again,
which I don't even.
Speaker 4 (20:04):
Matter if you got what his facts is, he said.
He said she was voted the worst that it don't
even matter.
Speaker 6 (20:13):
Aren't you the same one that had Hulk Hogan, Kid Rod,
you know, Sleepy Hollow, Chef g all of these people
coming out for you.
Speaker 2 (20:22):
So you're saying she needs to have celebrities.
Speaker 4 (20:26):
See that's the thing.
Speaker 3 (20:27):
Like it's like a delusional thing, Like he says, whatever,
even if it it like directly contradicts what he just said.
Speaker 4 (20:36):
Nobody, kids make it make sense, right, just nobody.
Speaker 1 (20:39):
It doesn't matter now.
Speaker 6 (20:40):
I also saw people critiquing Megan the Stallion for being
at the rally. They said her performance she was twerking.
Speaker 4 (20:47):
Do you try to talk a little bit. If you're
gonna perform and.
Speaker 2 (20:49):
Listen, people who to work vote is what I'm saying.

H So Lil YACHTI recently said he wished he never
spoke on the Drake and Kenjack Lamar Rat beef. Now,
(22:32):
he was on the Flagrant podcast with Andrew Schultz, and
he was referencing what he had said previously when he
commented on the battle.
Speaker 2 (22:40):
Here's what he had said previously.
Speaker 15 (22:41):
Well, I think people just han't on Drake because he's like,
he's the guy's.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
Feel like there's something extra on it. It's also probably
everyone's he he's also that guy. Though.
Speaker 4 (22:53):
How hard was that beef for you?
Speaker 16 (22:54):
Like?
Speaker 1 (22:55):
I just wish I had never spoke on it.
Speaker 6 (22:58):
You know, he feels like or not journalists necessarily when
they're comment on things.
Speaker 2 (23:03):
Here's what he said.
Speaker 15 (23:04):
Kendrick clearly had a lot more animosity, and you felt
it in every song that he dropped, because Drake dropped
the great records. But I mean, but also, let's be fair,
Brake was deemed a loser in his battle before he started.
Speaker 4 (23:19):
Was he I feel like that.
Speaker 3 (23:21):
I feel like the space that Drake is in people
had already taken. You know, they was tired of him
in some kind of way and wanted to see him.
They want to see you bleed a little.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
But Drake has a huge fan base. Look at Elie.
Speaker 3 (23:36):
Absolutely. But I just it didn't matter what he said.
I listened when the first Kendrick record came out, they
were saying he lost. The record wasn't out five minutes.
Speaker 4 (23:46):
We was up there.
Speaker 6 (23:47):
I felt like people were also saying Kendrick didn't respond,
he's taking too long.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
Okay, that was that was the thing, that was the thing, right,
But soon as Kendrick responded, they said he lost. No
matter what Kendrick said, what he did Now, I'm not
taking away from most great records because that not like
us is the record. But I don't think no matter
what Drake did, no matter because I like Family Matters.
I think Family Matters were super dope. But I don't
(24:12):
think I think he was already. But no matter what
stop it, no matter what he said, no matter what
he did, I think that he was going to come
out the loser. I think people kind of wanted to
see him lose.
Speaker 6 (24:24):
All right now, speaking of somebody who battles, that would
be Eminem. And Eminem interviewed himself as Slim Shady versus
Marshall madis a younger version of himself. And this was
the cover story for Complex, And here is what it
sounds like as they go back and forth with.
Speaker 4 (24:41):
One era that mattered. Mind.
Speaker 16 (24:43):
Everything that people think of when they think of Eminem
is yours, truly, from the blond hair to the middle
finger to the jokes, all of it me. And if
we're being honest, the music that you've been dropping since
I bounced, ain't it. No one gets a fit about
your lyrical miracles. You're scaring enough people want to be
he entertained, so you think it's entertaining to just be
a cad and people off I've grown up, bro.
Speaker 6 (25:06):
Yeah, so interesting to see them talking to him, interview himself.
And by the way, the death of Slim Shady. The
first week sales for that two hundred and eighty one
thousand equivalent album units.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
It's the biggest rap debut of twenty twenty four so far.
Speaker 4 (25:19):
So nice.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
You know, Eminem still do what I like.
Speaker 4 (25:22):
I like the single he came out with when he
was dressed like Robin oh and listen, I want to
say that that reminded me of old.
Speaker 6 (25:29):
That whole album goes hard and he is now holding back.
You're like, ooh, you can't say that all right? In
fifty cent he is in the Hollywood Reporter. They did
an extensive interview and just to give you guys some
cliff notes on what he was talking about. He talked
about finally getting invited to the twenty twenty two Super
Bowl halftime show. They couldn't get him to do it.
They couldn't get Eminem to do it without him, so
they had to. He said Rock Nation did not want
(25:49):
him there.
Speaker 4 (25:50):
Wow.
Speaker 6 (25:50):
He also went to this ship with three point five
million dollars in cash on him and said he was
inspired by Muhammad Ali to do that in the nineteen
sixty four Sports Illustrated cover. I had a million dollars
in winnings on that cover, so that's why he was
inspired to do that. He also talks about several shows
in development for Hulu, Paramount Plus, Peacock and b E
T And he's also launching a fast channel, He's building
(26:13):
a film studio and Shree Report, which we all know
about that, and he's also releasing a novel about a
black female Texas Ranger. All of these different things that
he has going on. But he talks about his documentary
about Ditty as well. In this interview, he said, I've
been very vocal about not going to puffy parties and
doing ish like that. He said he watched the video
(26:33):
of Diddy attacking Cassie. He said, first he deny that
it even happened, and the tape comes out, so that
means everything that he says is a lie. When someone
watches that, if they have a daughter and they can
imagine her being under those circumstances, that ish is crazy.
And he also talks about the people that protected Diddy
that were around him, so I'm hearing that's also going
to be included in the documentary and he's working on
this with Emmy winning filmmaker Alex Stapleton, who did shut
(26:55):
up in Dribbil and Hello Privilege, it's me Chelsea. So
he said, they're going to be telling this story for real,
all right. So you can read that full interview. It's
pretty good by the time. He also talks about his
child's mother, Daphne, and the allegations that she tried to
say that he physically abused her and how she took
that down pretty quickly, but he didn't want to get
too much into it because they do have a child together, right,
(27:17):
But he did discuss that as well.
Speaker 4 (27:19):
Is that is that out?
Speaker 6 (27:20):
Yeah, it's out right. Now here's the full interview. It's long,
all right, Well that is your yet when we come back.
We have asked yee eight hundred two nine two fifty

Speaker 4 (28:00):
Man, that's why love thinking about getting.
Speaker 5 (28:04):
Back together with my wife. Were separated, But I don't
know what I should do.
Speaker 6 (28:09):
Okay, explain why you're separated and what has made you
have this change of hearts.
Speaker 5 (28:14):
I kind of messed up playing around. You separated a
lot of October. I signed divorce papers and she kind
of didn't want to sign on, and she was saying
that she kind of wanted to re evaluate things.
Speaker 2 (28:26):
But I don't know how bad was it cheating? Did
you have like a relationship or was it a.
Speaker 4 (28:32):
Yeah, just a little jump for I mean, that ain't
that bad. So she was ready to leave you over that?
That's she.
Speaker 3 (28:43):
You don't know what that's the thing though, I mean
to stay together forever, you gotta at least deal with
a few cheese.
Speaker 6 (28:49):
Okay, So you're with the woman and she cheats on
you a few times you're Okay. What I'm saying is
this man right, Women and men are designed entirely anyway.
All I'm saying is a woman has a right to
say if you do something like that, they don't have
to stay with you.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
So now it's work to get it back to where
it was.
Speaker 5 (29:05):
I mean, we started going to therapy and all that.
It was just kind of hitting the wall.
Speaker 4 (29:09):
But I don't really want to be divorced, do you.
Speaker 5 (29:12):
I mean, I ain't gonna hold you out. I miss
my family.
Speaker 4 (29:14):
Okay, that's something to fight for. Now, how does she
really feel right now?
Speaker 5 (29:18):
She kind of wants to talk it out and hash
things up.
Speaker 4 (29:20):
I think you should do that. I think you should
sit down with her, and I think y'all should work
it out.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
What's going to be different?
Speaker 5 (29:26):
John?
Speaker 2 (29:26):
If you guys get back together, how are you going
to move differently?
Speaker 5 (29:29):
Cut everybody own?
Speaker 4 (29:31):
If it just keeps a little something though?
Speaker 5 (29:32):
Right?
Speaker 11 (29:33):
No?
Speaker 4 (29:34):
Nah Na, never mind me.
Speaker 2 (29:36):
Bro, Yeah, don't mind. Don't make him know mine?
Speaker 4 (29:39):
John.
Speaker 6 (29:39):
I hate that you're laughing at this. I don't know
if you're ready, John, No, he's I've been.
Speaker 5 (29:44):
Getting a lot of different size. A lot of my
friends are talking like me and like my mom, and
my aunt is talking like you. So I mean, I'm
kind of in the middle.
Speaker 6 (29:51):
It's about you though. Forget all the noise, right, what
do you feel like you need to do?
Speaker 2 (29:56):
And what do you want to do? And what are
you willing to do? You know yourself better than all
of us.
Speaker 5 (30:00):
I ain't gonna holds there.
Speaker 4 (30:02):
You go right there. Fight for your kids.
Speaker 5 (30:04):
Man.
Speaker 6 (30:05):
Is it that you miss your kids or is it
that you also miss your wife, missed the whole system?
Speaker 5 (30:09):
Yeah, just like coming home.
Speaker 3 (30:11):
And I'm gonna tell you, like this, that's better than
the street, bro, take it from me. It looks desirable.
So lonely you have fun he he hey, hey, that's
I'm gonna do that. If I ain't gonna do if
I ain gonna do nothing else, I'm gonna do that.
Speaker 4 (30:30):
Right.
Speaker 3 (30:30):
But what I'm saying is you already have a family
or system, a foundation that is better than anything.
Speaker 6 (30:39):
Yeah, you don't want to be made though, man out
every night with these different women.
Speaker 4 (30:43):
Just don't cheat that much money, stop.
Speaker 6 (30:49):
John, Go get your girl back, man, get your girl back,
get your family back.
Speaker 2 (30:54):

do the work. Do the work.
Speaker 4 (31:00):
Don't get caught next time, my boy, don't do it.
Speaker 6 (31:03):
I appreciate nothing like living in a way that you
don't have to look over your shoulder or worry about
what's in your phone, or worry about getting caught.
Speaker 4 (31:11):
Okay, okay, all right, yeah he'll take.
Speaker 2 (31:14):
All right, Well, thank you. John Mimino's crying himself to
sleep tonight. Who think about you?
Speaker 6 (31:18):
And when we come back, it is a Wealth Wednesday,
and we have the founder of It's a ten. Carolyn
Aronson is going to be joining us. She'll talk about
her multi billion dollar valuation of her company. It's a ten.
She is the sole owner. It's amazing, it's way up.
It's a ten, hope, and I don't.
Speaker 7 (31:35):
Mind sharing my wealth dogs getting you straight financially, mentally
and physically.
Speaker 1 (31:39):
This is Wealth Wednesday. On way up with Angela Yee.
Speaker 6 (31:43):
What's up his way up at Angela Yee. I'm here,
And of course it's a wealth Wednesday. So my partner
Stacey Tisday is here.
Speaker 13 (31:49):
Happy Wealth Wednesday. And it is a ten because we
have the founder and CEO of It's a ten hair care,
and I think one of the first, if not the only,
and certainly one of the few self made Latina billionaires
with the creating a company that has over a billion
dollar valuation.
Speaker 2 (32:08):
Yes, that's Carolyn.
Speaker 4 (32:10):
Aaronson in the house.
Speaker 2 (32:12):
Thank you so much.
Speaker 14 (32:13):
Thank you for having me.
Speaker 6 (32:14):
And I was telling you I use it's a ten
haircare products, and I like what I like about it
is the spray to leave in that I could just
spray in my hair. And then you guys have developed
that so like just an amazing line of products. I
remember when it was just that.
Speaker 10 (32:28):
That's right.
Speaker 14 (32:28):
So I started one bottle and now over ten million
bottles a years old of that one bottle.
Speaker 6 (32:34):
Talk to me about yourself and what made you even
develop this one product that you initially started with.
Speaker 2 (32:39):
As you started as a hairdresser, you were just eighteen
years old.
Speaker 14 (32:42):
I mean I was sixteen when I started. I've been
a hairdresser for forty one years. I still have a
license in two states because my mother pounded it in
my head. Keep it it's yours. No one can never
take it from you. No one could take these hands away.
So anything happens, I can always go back to hair.
Speaker 2 (32:57):
Right You'll think you.
Speaker 9 (33:00):
You never know?
Speaker 2 (33:00):
We thank you, okay, but let's say, so.
Speaker 6 (33:03):
Let's start talking about when you decided you wanted to
become an entrepreneur. Said, you're a licensed cosmetologist as well,
So talk to me about that process of when you
developed the first it's a ten spray, the leaving conditioner
that you have, and how you were able to develop that,
and then the process of growing that.
Speaker 14 (33:20):
So actually, failure is how I developed it. My partner
and I had a company. Our first company completely failed.
We lost everything and we were married at the time
and got divorced.
Speaker 2 (33:32):
Was it because of that? That's just having that. Okay,
a lot to do with that.
Speaker 14 (33:35):
I'm sure it was a multiple things. But so we
each had forty thousand dollars each and we decided to
pick up the pieces and start with one bottle, one
closed out bottles all we could afford. And so that's
when we actually started It's a ten haircare together and
we just grew.
Speaker 2 (33:54):
It and grew it and grew it.
Speaker 14 (33:55):
There was one time we took it a loan for
fifty thousand dollars from a bank, but yeah, it was
paid back within probably two months.
Speaker 6 (34:03):
Right now, it's a wealth Wednesday. I'm with my partner
Stacy Tisdale and we're talking to Carolyn Aronson. She is
the founder and CEO and by the way, the cell
owner of It's a ten haircare.
Speaker 2 (34:12):
Where did you get the money?
Speaker 14 (34:13):
So the very first company that we lost half a
million dollars on we had gotten that through real.
Speaker 2 (34:18):
Estate and that was another haircare company. It was okay,
a link it.
Speaker 14 (34:22):
Was yeah, and that was nine products. And we did
too much too fast, okay, and we had QC issues.
We did everything all a caart. It was a nightmare.
I mean, we just had a lot of issues.
Speaker 2 (34:36):
That's a good very though doing things too fast because
fast and.
Speaker 14 (34:40):
Too fragmented, like literally trying to do everything ourselves. What
I learned from that is really to start partnering with
a little bit of one stop shops that help you
bring your visions to life. And there are so many
out of them out there today.
Speaker 4 (34:54):
Clarify what you mean by one stop shop.
Speaker 14 (34:56):
Stop shop, So it's basically part of your injur that
may have multiple services under one roof. So rather than
having somebody who you get the bottle from here, and
you get the cap from there, and you get the
label from here, and you get the ingredients from there.
And the chemists put some ingredients together and you hope
they mix well, and then they put them in a
bottle with a cap that doesn't fit in a label.
Speaker 4 (35:16):
That bubbles right right.
Speaker 14 (35:17):
So that's what I'm talking about. So then we started
partnering with vendors who have multiple services under one roof.
So when you start limiting the amount of people that
touch your end product, you're gonna have a finer tuned product.
Speaker 6 (35:30):
And is probably less expensive when you're using all your
services from one place and paying each.
Speaker 14 (35:34):
Vendor individually a lot less contracts.
Speaker 6 (35:37):
Negotiate It is a Wealth Wednesday, and we are talking
to Carolyn Aronson. She is the founder and CEO of
It's a ten Here Care. We have more with her
when we come back. Massacred has a long standing commitment
to advance inclusion for everyone everywhere. In twenty twenty, they
created in Solidarity to help narrow the wealth and opportunity gap.
(35:58):
To learn more about massacred in Solidarity initiative, visit www
dot mastercar dot com, forward slash Solidarity.
Speaker 1 (36:06):
I had a dream of wealthy and I don't mind
sharing my wealth.
Speaker 7 (36:10):
Dog getting you straight financially, mentally, and physically. This is
Wealth Wednesday on Way Up with Angela Yee.
Speaker 2 (36:16):
What's up his Way Up with Angela Yee.
Speaker 6 (36:18):
I'm Angela Yee and my partner in Wealth Wednesday, Stacy
Tisdale is here and we're talking to the founder, the CEO,
and the soule owner of It's a ten.
Speaker 2 (36:26):
Here care Carolyn Aaronson? All right, so it's a ten.
Speaker 6 (36:29):
How did you even come up with the name, because
that's also a thing, right, because when you have a product,
you have to come up with something that is going
to stick that you love, and that's a hard thing
to do, even not as far as branding and marketing.
Speaker 14 (36:39):
So my partner's like, you know, let's call it ten
and say it does ten things. And I'm like, I
love that. But truthfully, when I work with a chemist,
I usually say that I'm you know, it's a three.
Send it back. It's not easy to create a ten, right,
and so I really strive for that, and that's really
became the name. And I said, let's call it it's
a ton, meaning it's the best. Obviously the cliche phrase,
you know, when I this line eighteen years ago, no
(37:01):
one had bright colors and bottles. I mean, I knew
that I had two seconds to get someone's attention off
the shelf, and then from there I had to create
a great fragrance. And I've really worked on the little
things that actually captivate someone in the first few seconds.
You have to maybe get them engaged with your product line.
Speaker 2 (37:17):
So things like that.
Speaker 14 (37:19):
The experience that I had, I applied to my industry.
I raised the bar and listen. I was up against
Proctor and Gamble, Lorial, the largest brands in the world
to this day, these massive, massive companies, and so many
people are like, oh, yeah, right, yeah right, you're gonna
make it. I mean, we had no marketing budgets, we
didn't have any money, but I got the product into
(37:40):
people's hands.
Speaker 4 (37:41):
You literally gave it away.
Speaker 14 (37:43):
We gave it away. We gave the largest sampling campaigns
in the history of the beauty industry. Were out for it.
When we started with Cosmoprof, who's a professional haircare distributor,
eighteen years ago. We wrote such large spiff checks that
people bought homes with them, people bought a car, put
their license plates it's a ten on the back of
(38:03):
the cars that they were able to buy. We empowered
people in a way that they never forgot us, you know,
and it was it just took off.
Speaker 2 (38:13):
Right now, It's a wealth Wednesday.
Speaker 6 (38:14):
I'm with my partner, Stacy Tisdale, and we're talking to
Carolyn Aronson. She is the founder and CEO and by
the way, the cell owner of It's a ten.
Speaker 2 (38:21):
Here.
Speaker 6 (38:22):
Care now talk to me about So you had one product, Now,
how did you know it was time to expand?
Speaker 2 (38:27):
And how do you decide what to expand to.
Speaker 14 (38:29):
Listen, I'm in the beauty industry.
Speaker 4 (38:31):
All we do is create.
Speaker 14 (38:32):
Just like fashion, it's important to keep innovation and we
really are the ones that inspire the rest of the
beauty industry. So I always knew I planned on growing
and expanding. Did I ever think I'd be here? Probably not,
But you know what, I love to create. It's my
favorite thing to do. I continued to do it, and
I'll have expanded into extensions and be a ten makeup
(38:56):
and hair tools and anything beauty great.
Speaker 2 (39:00):
That ten goes right into extensions too.
Speaker 14 (39:02):
Yeah, it's yeah, one.
Speaker 2 (39:04):
Zero, yes, one's amazing that.
Speaker 5 (39:10):
I know.
Speaker 14 (39:10):
I was going to say, you started a men's show,
but we started a men's hair color and beer color line. Unfortunately,
the men haven't had quality products that women have had
for years. So you know, like anything, it's all about
raising the bar in that sector, and that's what we
really set out to do. This is something I ask

back to his wife, but he definitely misses the family
structure and system, and that's the reason to reconsider. So
men who are you know, in a bind with divorced
or separation. Women want to leave because if they're doing
all the work, then they don't need the man there
(41:51):
at all. You're not doing your car financially and she's

whatever was shining light and when we come back, we
have your yet and let's talk about kays and I,
I mean, he was really upset yesterday on Instagram. He
was streaming and he was basically crying about his cameraman
slash best friend having to fire him. And will tell
(04:07):
you why. It's way up.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
Shure, she's about to blow the lid ab off this spot.
Let's get it. Oh yeah, Angelus billing at ye tea,
come and get the tea.
Speaker 6 (04:15):
All right, his way up. I'm here, Mano's here, no mana.
And you know what a tough day ky Sanat yesterday.
You know, he was very emotional. He was on Live
and he said people have been telling him you shouldn't
get on live during a time like this, but he's
talking about these allegations that his cameraman, who was also
his friend Chris was allegedly sexting with a minor. The
(04:39):
young girl in the text messages said that she lied
about being nineteen, so originally he thought she was nineteen,
but then when she said I'm actually seventeen, I wouldn't
do you like that.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
He continued to send these sext messages to her.
Speaker 6 (04:52):
Now here is Ky Sanat talking about the whole situation
and having to fire his cameraman.
Speaker 11 (04:57):
I'll he connected his situations up early in twenty twenty one,
this was caught talking to somebody that's not the age
of consent.
Speaker 4 (05:06):
She lot about her age. She ended up saying her
age said she was seventeen. Right at that moment, you're
supposed to stop texting. And I'm just sick and tired.
Speaker 11 (05:15):
Of how you do it like this because it's like, damn,
like somebody who helped me start our host.
Speaker 6 (05:23):
Yeah, I mean, I'm sure he's emotional because it's like,
why would you make such a poor decision?
Speaker 2 (05:27):
You know, you know, we got a lot going on
right now, you risked all of this.
Speaker 11 (05:31):
Oh.
Speaker 6 (05:32):
I don't know how old he is, but what I
do know is that girl was under age and told
him her real age and she said she had just
turned seventeen. Also, by the way, she's now nineteen years old.
So this did happen December of twenty twenty one through
February March of twenty twenty two. And she said that
he was just being flirtatious and then texting wild issues
(05:52):
shouldn't say to a minor during that time, and so yeah,
that's you know, and for Kays and now I'm sure
he's feeling like, like, I built myself up to this
point and why would you do that? It came around
was twenty one at the time, sexting her all right. Now,
on the brighter side of things, you know, Kevin Hart
loves him some Kay Sanat, and he said that he
(06:13):
would like him to play him in a future movie,
a future bio pic.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
Here is what he had to say.
Speaker 4 (06:19):
Oh my god, am I that old? Are we getting
there in a perfect world in the future?
Speaker 12 (06:23):
Because I got a feeling that they'll be able to
knock it out the part because of where they'll be
Ky Sanat, cut the dreads and stuff all. I think
he can get in there and pull out a phenomenal,
phenomenal performance.
Speaker 6 (06:34):
All right, this is an interview he did with Vibe
for his new movie Borderlands. Now, Kaysen, I was excited
about this. Here's what he said in the movie.
Speaker 13 (06:43):
Bro.
Speaker 4 (06:43):
I don't know what he sees in me, Bro, but
he really feels like I can go to the next level. Bro,
and he b he just helps me outlev it on
so much levels.
Speaker 11 (06:52):
Bro.
Speaker 6 (06:53):
All right, that's nice when you have somebody as big
as Kevin Hart that is putting his hand on your shoulder, like, Yo.
Speaker 4 (06:58):
You got this actual organic liking to you, nothing else
to do with it, just helps you, just to help you.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
Yeah, my makeup art is key.
Speaker 6 (07:08):
She was telling me she watched the full entire stream
when Kevin Hart was on Accustin.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
I was a long one, but she said it was
so funny.
Speaker 6 (07:14):
Her son made to watch it, and she was thoroughly
entertained to see the two of them together. All right,
well that is your yut when we come back. I
cannot wait to hear about last night. May know, you
were doing some things to the point where someone called
me this morning and was like I was with Mano
last night.
Speaker 4 (07:29):
Wow.
Speaker 6 (07:30):
And this all has to do with elections and voting
and conversations and black men.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
I can't wait to talk about it. It's way up.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
So about last night, Yes, I went down last night.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
It's way up.
Speaker 6 (07:45):
I'm here, Mano's here, man, and it's time for about
last night now.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Mayno. This morning someone called and told me they saw
you last night. Charles Suit.
Speaker 4 (07:54):
Shout out to him Suit.
Speaker 6 (07:56):
Yes, he has his own publishing company and he signed
a lot of amazing book deals for people like Pinky
Cole and Steven A.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
Smith. And may now we see you all right now
talk to me about what you were doing last night.
Speaker 3 (08:08):
Shout out to my guy James McMillan, heavy lawyer in
the game, been in the game out of the years.
He put together this dinner in Brooklyn chop house, you know,
black men coming together to speak about the climate of
this election. And I stopped by man and you know,
and I listened a lot, and I spoke a little
(08:28):
bit and heard some interesting things and some interesting perspectives
on the whole climate where we're at right now, and
as far as you know, the election and uh Kama
running and how people felt about it. But the most
thing I got out of it is this, they feel
like the less of two evils, right, and we can't
(08:53):
just not do anything and you.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Know what, there's no candidate that will ever be perfect.
That's the other thing. So you have to look at
it like who aligns more with what I believe?
Speaker 6 (09:04):
And who do I also look at their administration and say,
I like who they have in position for certain things,
because we've heard of some things that Trump plans to
do if he takes office. And I mean, I just think,
even just alone the whole giving police immunity, it's enough
to be like, Okay, what is really happening?
Speaker 2 (09:26):
It though, and it's interesting to me. Another thing.
Speaker 6 (09:29):
When I was talking to Charles this morning, he was
talking about not being disrespectful to a black woman because
you see all the things that are being done. Not
only is she a woman, she's a black woman, she's
an Indian woman, but they also are definitely attacking her
for those reasons. I see an article in a New
York Post today. Let me read you this headline about
(09:50):
Kamala Harris. It says Kamala Harris's much older lover gave
her a BMW and salary boosting job as she climbed
Democratic Party rings. And so they're talking about when she
was a young prosecutor in nineteen ninety four. They're bringing
up this Willie Brown situation again, Willie Brown where she
was gifted at BMW, and Trip said, what does that
(10:12):
have to do?
Speaker 4 (10:13):
But this is what they do.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
But it's attacking right this woman, right, the.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
Muslinging and the name calling, and then you know they're
trying to change the narrative and create this energy around
her that have people like how we are right now,
like man, I ain't voting, many don't matter, but.
Speaker 6 (10:30):
The disrespect should be enough also for people to be like,
is this what we want from our country?
Speaker 2 (10:33):
A bunch of people who are disrespectful to women?
Speaker 4 (10:37):
Yeah? People not going to look at it like that.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
All right, Well that is about last night. Now, you
know when we come back, what we have, what we're having?
A twix?
Speaker 6 (10:44):
Okiddy, tell us a secret. Eight hundred to ninety two
fifty one fifty it's the number. If you don't stop

Drinking and drinks with a pupe in it.
Speaker 10 (13:17):
I would dump half of it out and you taste

a little spooky surprising, it ain't his drinking. I did
it for two years.
Speaker 4 (13:25):
Why are you whispering? He's like you in the other

Speaker 4 (13:41):
So why you just don't leave him then instead of going,

Speaker 10 (13:45):
Because there was a situation of living.
Speaker 11 (13:47):
I know.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
Let me ask you this, Are you still sleeping with
him and kissing him and stuff? He okay, listen, that's discussing.

you ever found out? Oh my god?

Speaker 2 (14:14):

a secret.
Speaker 6 (14:20):
Thank you guys for sharing and for calling eight hundred
and two ninety two fifty one fifty. And when we
come back, we have your yet And apparently if Drake
don't like you, you're not allowed to perform in Toronto.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
We'll talk about it.
Speaker 7 (14:32):
It's way up the rooms from industry shade to all
the gods that out angelas spilling that et.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
All right, it's way up. I'm here, Mayno's in the building.
Speaker 4 (14:44):
Wait, wait, way up?
Speaker 2 (14:46):
Do you consider yourself petty?
Speaker 5 (14:48):
No?
Speaker 6 (14:49):
Okay, yes, well I want to talk about this situation,
so sir, and you know he's on TDE. He was
supposed to be performing in Toronto at this venue called History,
it's a concert venue, and it got canceled, all right,
he said, we're working on the rescheduling for a later date.
And he said, for those wondering, we sold that show out.
It was canceled by the venue.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Not sure why. My apologies again to those who came
just to see me. Now.
Speaker 6 (15:13):
The venue did not provide a reason for the cancelation.
They didn't respond to any request for comments. The event
was removed from their official website. And you know, Schoolboy
Q was supposed to be out there in Toronto. They
canceled his show at History at that same venue. And
so it seems like if anybody that Drake doesn't like
(15:34):
is what people are starting to.
Speaker 4 (15:35):
Feel anybody affiliated with his ops.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
Now Mac walk from TDE actually spoke on this whole situation.
Here's what he said.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
Word around town is Dre is in cahoots with this venue.
Speaker 4 (15:46):
He got probably a little equity in the venue.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
I'm not sure allegedly.
Speaker 16 (15:51):
Anybody that was on that pop out stage they're getting
canceled this he performing at this particular venue.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
It's called the History.
Speaker 11 (15:59):
And now what I'm my suggestion is nobody performed at
the History because they will cancel your show if drakema
like you.
Speaker 4 (16:07):
Mm, that's petty, like it though the active.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
War Yeah, like it, like book them and then cancel
at the last minute.
Speaker 4 (16:17):
We ain't gonna have them over there. No, But like
he did it with his accent. I feel like he
called up familiar with his accent. No no, no, no,
dune them, dund them. I feel like he did that
just like that.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
I feel like we're hearing more about it. At some point.
Speaker 6 (16:30):
Now, let's talk about love and hip hop Atlanta. Rashida
and Kirk. It feels like they have quite the storyline
this season. You know, they had a lot of drama
a few years ago when Kirk was exposed for having
a baby with another woman, Jasmine Blue. Well, last night's episode,
the three of them sat down, that is, Rashida Kirk
for us in Jasmine Blue and had a conversation. She
(16:53):
confronted Kirk for allegedly not paying child support for their son,
and Rashida was also present during this conversation.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
Here is what it sounded like. Hello, Rashida, Okay, I
haven't seen you in years.
Speaker 4 (17:04):
I have not good to see you as well.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
It's just an awkward one.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
No one husband really wants to call this type of
meaning because it's incredibly awkward to kind of be in
this position.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
Do you realize you didn't even attend Cannon's last birthday?
Speaker 4 (17:18):
Because where were you at?
Speaker 15 (17:19):
That's the same party that I have paid for and
pay for the gifts? Correct when we was in mediation,
do you even remember what we agreed on?
Speaker 8 (17:27):
Oh man, that's an uncomfortable situation, I know, but pay
for things does not take away being there, right.
Speaker 3 (17:32):
But by the way, so how does Rashida feel? I mean,
they they probably are pretty much already because the show
got to be like what my FoST six years old
right now?
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Yeah, this happened in twenty seventeen years Oh.
Speaker 4 (17:42):
Yeah, original already they already locked in. You already know
who they are.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
Yeah, that's a tough thing. You ever see the movie Fences?
Speaker 4 (17:49):
Yeah? I saw that, all right.
Speaker 6 (17:50):
Well, if you haven't seen it, it happens, all right,
Well that is your Yet. We have so much more
to get to and we'll discuss it later because I
want to make sure we get into this fifty cent
article interview that he did with the Hollywood Reporter. But
we'll get to that later. In the meantime, we have
under the radar when we come back. These are the
stories that are not necessarily in the headlines. They're flying
(18:10):
under the radars.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
Way up.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
Check the news.
Speaker 7 (18:14):
News, this in the news that relates to you. These
stories are flying under the radar, all.
Speaker 6 (18:19):
Right, this way up, Angela yee manos in the building. Yeah,
not nobody else, not nobody else. You know what it is,
right all right? Now, Apparently they're saying that Nike has
lost twenty five billion dollars after aggressively cutting partnerships with
the retail brands like foot Locker. They want to really
go direct to consumer. Now, the company is backtracking its
(18:40):
plans and will continue to work with retailers in order
to win back consumers. So they had thirty year long
partnerships with wholesalers and retail distributions like foot Locker, and
they wanted people to go to Nike dot com. They
fired thousands of key employees who built its retail division
and focused all on digital. But that did not convert,
and so they're going to have to figure out how
(19:01):
to get it back. All right, Wow, you notice that
have does anybody notice that?
Speaker 3 (19:07):
I mean, it just don't feel the same. It doesn't
feel the same as far as the Nike craze.
Speaker 6 (19:14):
But you know, as somebody who knows having to deal
with retail, direct to consumer is always the best way
to make a profit. But if you can mass sell
in places like they have been, you know that definitely
is valuable and worth it.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
So being able to ramp all of those things up,
all right.
Speaker 6 (19:30):
Donald Trump is very upset at Vice President Kamala Harris.
She had her rally in Atlanta yesterday, and we all
know you all saw Megan the Stallion performing, right, and
Quavo made a surprise appearance. But Trump went on his
truth social and said, crazy Kamala Harris voted the worst
president in American history, worst vice president in American history.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
Sorry, needed a concert.
Speaker 6 (19:55):
To bring people into the Atlanta arena, and they started
leaving five minutes into her speech. I don't need con
or entertainers. I just have to make America great again,
which I don't even.
Speaker 4 (20:04):
Matter if you got what his facts is, he said.
He said she was voted the worst that it don't
even matter.
Speaker 6 (20:13):
Aren't you the same one that had Hulk Hogan, Kid Rod,
you know, Sleepy Hollow, Chef g all of these people
coming out for you.
Speaker 2 (20:22):
So you're saying she needs to have celebrities.
Speaker 4 (20:26):
See that's the thing.
Speaker 3 (20:27):
Like it's like a delusional thing, Like he says, whatever,
even if it it like directly contradicts what he just said.
Speaker 4 (20:36):
Nobody, kids make it make sense, right, just nobody.
Speaker 1 (20:39):
It doesn't matter now.
Speaker 6 (20:40):
I also saw people critiquing Megan the Stallion for being
at the rally. They said her performance she was twerking.
Speaker 4 (20:47):
Do you try to talk a little bit. If you're
gonna perform and.
Speaker 2 (20:49):
Listen, people who to work vote is what I'm saying.
Works for votes. Matter of fact, I feel like you
should do some type of tour.
Speaker 6 (20:57):
No, but you can work, you can support, Okay, you
can go to these environments and encourage people work to
make sure they're register and shout out to Hill Harper
who just stopped through too, because you know, elections are
August sixth, so we want to make sure people in
Michigan go out and vote because we love us and
(21:18):
Hill Harper and I'm excited for all the work he's
been doing. He's so nice though, and he thinks he
can win just by being smart and having great ideas.
But you know you do need money to run a campaign.
All right, Well that is your under the radar. You
know we have the way it mix at the top
of the hour, plus, I love this conversation. Carolyn Aronson's
going to be joining us. She is the founder of

(22:00):

H So Lil YACHTI recently said he wished he never
spoke on the Drake and Kenjack Lamar Rat beef. Now,
(22:32):
he was on the Flagrant podcast with Andrew Schultz, and
he was referencing what he had said previously when he
commented on the battle.
Speaker 2 (22:40):
Here's what he had said previously.
Speaker 15 (22:41):
Well, I think people just han't on Drake because he's like,
he's the guy's.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
Feel like there's something extra on it. It's also probably
everyone's he he's also that guy. Though.
Speaker 4 (22:53):
How hard was that beef for you?
Speaker 16 (22:54):
Like?
Speaker 1 (22:55):
I just wish I had never spoke on it.
Speaker 6 (22:58):
You know, he feels like or not journalists necessarily when
they're comment on things.
Speaker 2 (23:03):
Here's what he said.
Speaker 15 (23:04):
Kendrick clearly had a lot more animosity, and you felt
it in every song that he dropped, because Drake dropped
the great records. But I mean, but also, let's be fair,
Brake was deemed a loser in his battle before he started.
Speaker 4 (23:19):
Was he I feel like that.
Speaker 3 (23:21):
I feel like the space that Drake is in people
had already taken. You know, they was tired of him
in some kind of way and wanted to see him.
They want to see you bleed a little.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
But Drake has a huge fan base. Look at Elie.
Speaker 3 (23:36):
Absolutely. But I just it didn't matter what he said.
I listened when the first Kendrick record came out, they
were saying he lost. The record wasn't out five minutes.
Speaker 4 (23:46):
We was up there.
Speaker 6 (23:47):
I felt like people were also saying Kendrick didn't respond,
he's taking too long.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
Okay, that was that was the thing, that was the thing, right,
But soon as Kendrick responded, they said he lost. No
matter what Kendrick said, what he did Now, I'm not
taking away from most great records because that not like
us is the record. But I don't think no matter
what Drake did, no matter because I like Family Matters.
I think Family Matters were super dope. But I don't
(24:12):
think I think he was already. But no matter what
stop it, no matter what he said, no matter what
he did, I think that he was going to come
out the loser. I think people kind of wanted to
see him lose.
Speaker 6 (24:24):
All right now, speaking of somebody who battles, that would
be Eminem. And Eminem interviewed himself as Slim Shady versus
Marshall madis a younger version of himself. And this was
the cover story for Complex, And here is what it
sounds like as they go back and forth with.
Speaker 4 (24:41):
One era that mattered. Mind.
Speaker 16 (24:43):
Everything that people think of when they think of Eminem
is yours, truly, from the blond hair to the middle
finger to the jokes, all of it me. And if
we're being honest, the music that you've been dropping since
I bounced, ain't it. No one gets a fit about
your lyrical miracles. You're scaring enough people want to be
he entertained, so you think it's entertaining to just be
a cad and people off I've grown up, bro.
Speaker 6 (25:06):
Yeah, so interesting to see them talking to him, interview himself.
And by the way, the death of Slim Shady. The
first week sales for that two hundred and eighty one
thousand equivalent album units.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
It's the biggest rap debut of twenty twenty four so far.
Speaker 4 (25:19):
So nice.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
You know, Eminem still do what I like.
Speaker 4 (25:22):
I like the single he came out with when he
was dressed like Robin oh and listen, I want to
say that that reminded me of old.
Speaker 6 (25:29):
That whole album goes hard and he is now holding back.
You're like, ooh, you can't say that all right? In
fifty cent he is in the Hollywood Reporter. They did
an extensive interview and just to give you guys some
cliff notes on what he was talking about. He talked
about finally getting invited to the twenty twenty two Super
Bowl halftime show. They couldn't get him to do it.
They couldn't get Eminem to do it without him, so
they had to. He said Rock Nation did not want
(25:49):
him there.
Speaker 4 (25:50):
Wow.
Speaker 6 (25:50):
He also went to this ship with three point five
million dollars in cash on him and said he was
inspired by Muhammad Ali to do that in the nineteen
sixty four Sports Illustrated cover. I had a million dollars
in winnings on that cover, so that's why he was
inspired to do that. He also talks about several shows
in development for Hulu, Paramount Plus, Peacock and b E
T And he's also launching a fast channel, He's building
(26:13):
a film studio and Shree Report, which we all know
about that, and he's also releasing a novel about a
black female Texas Ranger. All of these different things that
he has going on. But he talks about his documentary
about Ditty as well. In this interview, he said, I've
been very vocal about not going to puffy parties and
doing ish like that. He said he watched the video
(26:33):
of Diddy attacking Cassie. He said, first he deny that
it even happened, and the tape comes out, so that
means everything that he says is a lie. When someone
watches that, if they have a daughter and they can
imagine her being under those circumstances, that ish is crazy.
And he also talks about the people that protected Diddy
that were around him, so I'm hearing that's also going
to be included in the documentary and he's working on
this with Emmy winning filmmaker Alex Stapleton, who did shut
(26:55):
up in Dribbil and Hello Privilege, it's me Chelsea. So
he said, they're going to be telling this story for real,
all right. So you can read that full interview. It's
pretty good by the time. He also talks about his
child's mother, Daphne, and the allegations that she tried to
say that he physically abused her and how she took
that down pretty quickly, but he didn't want to get
too much into it because they do have a child together, right,
(27:17):
But he did discuss that as well.
Speaker 4 (27:19):
Is that is that out?
Speaker 6 (27:20):
Yeah, it's out right. Now here's the full interview. It's long,
all right, Well that is your yet when we come back.

Speaker 5 (28:04):
Back together with my wife. Were separated, But I don't
know what I should do.
Speaker 6 (28:09):
Okay, explain why you're separated and what has made you
have this change of hearts.
Speaker 5 (28:14):
I kind of messed up playing around. You separated a
lot of October. I signed divorce papers and she kind
of didn't want to sign on, and she was saying
that she kind of wanted to re evaluate things.
Speaker 2 (28:26):
But I don't know how bad was it cheating? Did
you have like a relationship or was it a.
Speaker 4 (28:32):
Yeah, just a little jump for I mean, that ain't
that bad. So she was ready to leave you over that?
That's she.
Speaker 3 (28:43):
You don't know what that's the thing though, I mean
to stay together forever, you gotta at least deal with
a few cheese.
Speaker 6 (28:49):
Okay, So you're with the woman and she cheats on
you a few times you're Okay. What I'm saying is
this man right, Women and men are designed entirely anyway.
All I'm saying is a woman has a right to
say if you do something like that, they don't have
to stay with you.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
So now it's work to get it back to where
it was.
Speaker 5 (29:05):
I mean, we started going to therapy and all that.
It was just kind of hitting the wall.
Speaker 4 (29:09):
But I don't really want to be divorced, do you.
Speaker 5 (29:12):
I mean, I ain't gonna hold you out. I miss
my family.
Speaker 4 (29:14):
Okay, that's something to fight for. Now, how does she
really feel right now?
Speaker 5 (29:18):
She kind of wants to talk it out and hash
things up.
Speaker 4 (29:20):
I think you should do that. I think you should
sit down with her, and I think y'all should work
it out.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
What's going to be different?
Speaker 5 (29:26):
John?
Speaker 2 (29:26):
If you guys get back together, how are you going
to move differently?
Speaker 5 (29:29):
Cut everybody own?
Speaker 4 (29:31):
If it just keeps a little something though?
Speaker 5 (29:32):
Right?
Speaker 11 (29:33):
No?
Speaker 4 (29:34):
Nah Na, never mind me.
Speaker 2 (29:36):
Bro, Yeah, don't mind. Don't make him know mine?
Speaker 4 (29:39):
John.
Speaker 6 (29:39):
I hate that you're laughing at this. I don't know
if you're ready, John, No, he's I've been.
Speaker 5 (29:44):
Getting a lot of different size. A lot of my
friends are talking like me and like my mom, and
my aunt is talking like you. So I mean, I'm
kind of in the middle.
Speaker 6 (29:51):
It's about you though. Forget all the noise, right, what
do you feel like you need to do?
Speaker 2 (29:56):
And what do you want to do? And what are
you willing to do? You know yourself better than all
of us.
Speaker 5 (30:00):
I ain't gonna holds there.
Speaker 4 (30:02):
You go right there. Fight for your kids.
Speaker 5 (30:04):
Man.
Speaker 6 (30:05):
Is it that you miss your kids or is it
that you also miss your wife, missed the whole system?
Speaker 5 (30:09):
Yeah, just like coming home.
Speaker 3 (30:11):
And I'm gonna tell you, like this, that's better than
the street, bro, take it from me. It looks desirable.
So lonely you have fun he he hey, hey, that's
I'm gonna do that. If I ain't gonna do if
I ain gonna do nothing else, I'm gonna do that.
Speaker 4 (30:30):
Right.
Speaker 3 (30:30):
But what I'm saying is you already have a family
or system, a foundation that is better than anything.
Speaker 6 (30:39):
Yeah, you don't want to be made though, man out
every night with these different women.
Speaker 4 (30:43):
Just don't cheat that much money, stop.
Speaker 6 (30:49):
John, Go get your girl back, man, get your girl back,

do the work. Do the work.
Speaker 4 (31:00):
Don't get caught next time, my boy, don't do it.
Speaker 6 (31:03):
I appreciate nothing like living in a way that you
don't have to look over your shoulder or worry about
what's in your phone, or worry about getting caught.
Speaker 4 (31:11):
Okay, okay, all right, yeah he'll take.
Speaker 2 (31:14):
All right, Well, thank you. John Mimino's crying himself to
sleep tonight. Who think about you?
Speaker 6 (31:18):
And when we come back, it is a Wealth Wednesday,
and we have the founder of It's a ten. Carolyn
Aronson is going to be joining us. She'll talk about
her multi billion dollar valuation of her company. It's a ten.
She is the sole owner. It's amazing, it's way up.
It's a ten, hope, and I don't.
Speaker 7 (31:35):
Mind sharing my wealth dogs getting you straight financially, mentally
and physically.
Speaker 1 (31:39):
This is Wealth Wednesday. On way up with Angela Yee.
Speaker 6 (31:43):
What's up his way up at Angela Yee. I'm here,
And of course it's a wealth Wednesday. So my partner
Stacey Tisday is here.
Speaker 13 (31:49):
Happy Wealth Wednesday. And it is a ten because we
have the founder and CEO of It's a ten hair care,
and I think one of the first, if not the only,
and certainly one of the few self made Latina billionaires
with the creating a company that has over a billion
dollar valuation.
Speaker 2 (32:08):
Yes, that's Carolyn.
Speaker 4 (32:10):
Aaronson in the house.
Speaker 2 (32:12):
Thank you so much.
Speaker 14 (32:13):
Thank you for having me.
Speaker 6 (32:14):
And I was telling you I use it's a ten
haircare products, and I like what I like about it
is the spray to leave in that I could just
spray in my hair. And then you guys have developed
that so like just an amazing line of products. I
remember when it was just that.
Speaker 10 (32:28):
That's right.
Speaker 14 (32:28):
So I started one bottle and now over ten million
bottles a years old of that one bottle.
Speaker 6 (32:34):
Talk to me about yourself and what made you even
develop this one product that you initially started with.
Speaker 2 (32:39):
As you started as a hairdresser, you were just eighteen
years old.
Speaker 14 (32:42):
I mean I was sixteen when I started. I've been
a hairdresser for forty one years. I still have a
license in two states because my mother pounded it in
my head. Keep it it's yours. No one can never
take it from you. No one could take these hands away.
So anything happens, I can always go back to hair.
Speaker 2 (32:57):
Right You'll think you.
Speaker 9 (33:00):
You never know?
Speaker 2 (33:00):
We thank you, okay, but let's say, so.
Speaker 6 (33:03):
Let's start talking about when you decided you wanted to
become an entrepreneur. Said, you're a licensed cosmetologist as well,
So talk to me about that process of when you
developed the first it's a ten spray, the leaving conditioner
that you have, and how you were able to develop that,
and then the process of growing that.
Speaker 14 (33:20):
So actually, failure is how I developed it. My partner
and I had a company. Our first company completely failed.
We lost everything and we were married at the time
and got divorced.
Speaker 2 (33:32):
Was it because of that? That's just having that. Okay,
a lot to do with that.
Speaker 14 (33:35):
I'm sure it was a multiple things. But so we
each had forty thousand dollars each and we decided to
pick up the pieces and start with one bottle, one
closed out bottles all we could afford. And so that's
when we actually started It's a ten haircare together and
we just grew.
Speaker 2 (33:54):
It and grew it and grew it.
Speaker 14 (33:55):
There was one time we took it a loan for
fifty thousand dollars from a bank, but yeah, it was
paid back within probably two months.
Speaker 6 (34:03):
Right now, it's a wealth Wednesday. I'm with my partner
Stacy Tisdale and we're talking to Carolyn Aronson. She is
the founder and CEO and by the way, the cell
owner of It's a ten haircare.
Speaker 2 (34:12):
Where did you get the money?
Speaker 14 (34:13):
So the very first company that we lost half a
million dollars on we had gotten that through real.
Speaker 2 (34:18):
Estate and that was another haircare company. It was okay,
a link it.
Speaker 14 (34:22):
Was yeah, and that was nine products. And we did
too much too fast, okay, and we had QC issues.
We did everything all a caart. It was a nightmare.
I mean, we just had a lot of issues.
Speaker 2 (34:36):
That's a good very though doing things too fast because
fast and.
Speaker 14 (34:40):
Too fragmented, like literally trying to do everything ourselves. What
I learned from that is really to start partnering with
a little bit of one stop shops that help you
bring your visions to life. And there are so many
out of them out there today.
Speaker 4 (34:54):
Clarify what you mean by one stop shop.
Speaker 14 (34:56):
Stop shop, So it's basically part of your injur that
may have multiple services under one roof. So rather than
having somebody who you get the bottle from here, and
you get the cap from there, and you get the
label from here, and you get the ingredients from there.
And the chemists put some ingredients together and you hope
they mix well, and then they put them in a
bottle with a cap that doesn't fit in a label.
Speaker 4 (35:16):
That bubbles right right.
Speaker 14 (35:17):
So that's what I'm talking about. So then we started
partnering with vendors who have multiple services under one roof.
So when you start limiting the amount of people that
touch your end product, you're gonna have a finer tuned product.
Speaker 6 (35:30):
And is probably less expensive when you're using all your
services from one place and paying each.
Speaker 14 (35:34):
Vendor individually a lot less contracts.
Speaker 6 (35:37):
Negotiate It is a Wealth Wednesday, and we are talking
to Carolyn Aronson. She is the founder and CEO of
It's a ten Here Care. We have more with her
when we come back. Massacred has a long standing commitment
to advance inclusion for everyone everywhere. In twenty twenty, they
created in Solidarity to help narrow the wealth and opportunity gap.

Speaker 1 (36:06):
I had a dream of wealthy and I don't mind
sharing my wealth.
Speaker 7 (36:10):
Dog getting you straight financially, mentally, and physically. This is
Wealth Wednesday on Way Up with Angela Yee.
Speaker 2 (36:16):
What's up his Way Up with Angela Yee.
Speaker 6 (36:18):
I'm Angela Yee and my partner in Wealth Wednesday, Stacy
Tisdale is here and we're talking to the founder, the CEO,
and the soule owner of It's a ten.
Speaker 2 (36:26):
Here care Carolyn Aaronson? All right, so it's a ten.
Speaker 6 (36:29):
How did you even come up with the name, because
that's also a thing, right, because when you have a product,
you have to come up with something that is going
to stick that you love, and that's a hard thing
to do, even not as far as branding and marketing.
Speaker 14 (36:39):
So my partner's like, you know, let's call it ten
and say it does ten things. And I'm like, I
love that. But truthfully, when I work with a chemist,
I usually say that I'm you know, it's a three.
Send it back. It's not easy to create a ten, right,
and so I really strive for that, and that's really
became the name. And I said, let's call it it's
a ton, meaning it's the best. Obviously the cliche phrase,
you know, when I this line eighteen years ago, no
(37:01):
one had bright colors and bottles. I mean, I knew
that I had two seconds to get someone's attention off
the shelf, and then from there I had to create
a great fragrance. And I've really worked on the little
things that actually captivate someone in the first few seconds.
You have to maybe get them engaged with your product line.
Speaker 2 (37:17):
So things like that.
Speaker 14 (37:19):
The experience that I had, I applied to my industry.
I raised the bar and listen. I was up against
Proctor and Gamble, Lorial, the largest brands in the world
to this day, these massive, massive companies, and so many
people are like, oh, yeah, right, yeah right, you're gonna
make it. I mean, we had no marketing budgets, we
didn't have any money, but I got the product into
(37:40):
people's hands.
Speaker 4 (37:41):
You literally gave it away.
Speaker 14 (37:43):
We gave it away. We gave the largest sampling campaigns
in the history of the beauty industry. Were out for it.
When we started with Cosmoprof, who's a professional haircare distributor,
eighteen years ago. We wrote such large spiff checks that
people bought homes with them, people bought a car, put
their license plates it's a ten on the back of
(38:03):
the cars that they were able to buy. We empowered
people in a way that they never forgot us, you know,
and it was it just took off.
Speaker 2 (38:13):
Right now, It's a wealth Wednesday.
Speaker 6 (38:14):
I'm with my partner, Stacy Tisdale, and we're talking to
Carolyn Aronson. She is the founder and CEO and by
the way, the cell owner of It's a ten.
Speaker 2 (38:21):
Here.
Speaker 6 (38:22):
Care now talk to me about So you had one product, Now,
how did you know it was time to expand?
Speaker 2 (38:27):
And how do you decide what to expand to.
Speaker 14 (38:29):
Listen, I'm in the beauty industry.
Speaker 4 (38:31):
All we do is create.
Speaker 14 (38:32):
Just like fashion, it's important to keep innovation and we
really are the ones that inspire the rest of the
beauty industry. So I always knew I planned on growing
and expanding. Did I ever think I'd be here? Probably not,
But you know what, I love to create. It's my
favorite thing to do. I continued to do it, and
I'll have expanded into extensions and be a ten makeup
(38:56):
and hair tools and anything beauty great.
Speaker 2 (39:00):
That ten goes right into extensions too.
Speaker 14 (39:02):
Yeah, it's yeah, one.
Speaker 2 (39:04):
Zero, yes, one's amazing that.
Speaker 5 (39:10):
I know.
Speaker 14 (39:10):
I was going to say, you started a men's show,
but we started a men's hair color and beer color line. Unfortunately,
the men haven't had quality products that women have had
for years. So you know, like anything, it's all about
raising the bar in that sector, and that's what we
really set out to do. This is something I ask
(39:31):
Angela all the time.
Speaker 13 (39:32):
Also, So you have your incredible businesses.
Speaker 4 (39:35):

Speaker 9 (41:29):
My name is Denis Frum from Long Island Store, and
I'd like to tickyback off of the man who was
just speaking about not knowing if he wants to go
back to his wife, but he definitely misses the family
structure and system, and that's the reason to reconsider. So
men who are you know, in a bind with divorced
or separation. Women want to leave because if they're doing
all the work, then they don't need the man there
(41:51):
at all. You're not doing your car financially and she's
doing most of that work, then really what youth is
the man in the relationship?
