Speaker 4 (00:36):
You know BT Broadcasting Love from the Nago Law Firm,
Studio Ferrari and we got Roaled aka Julie hor Now
we was talking off camera. Man, this has been a
long time in the make it man, like you started acting.
Speaker 5 (00:55):
You came up. He came up here last year, right
was it last year?
Speaker 3 (00:58):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (00:58):
Yeah, he was on your last You introduced to me
as growing up with BT, like yeah, I was like okay, cool,
cool cool, and then all of a sudden.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
As one all it takes one brother, you know it's crazy.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
All it take is one man.
Speaker 4 (01:16):
And I used to tell Julian all the time when
he was telling me that, you know, he was doing actor,
I'm like, well, all you needed one was for the.
Speaker 6 (01:22):
People who were just seeing you for the first time.
What television show are you on?
Speaker 1 (01:26):
Beauty and Black?
Speaker 3 (01:28):
First of all, that's the number one.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
And who do you play? Roy Bellery from the Bellery family?
Speaker 5 (01:34):
And let's talk about your character.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
He's he's first of all, he's an outrageous character. He's
he always mad, He's always mad. He's he's outrageous, he's vicious.
But at the same time, it's a little bit misunderstood
at the same time, you know what I'm saying, because
he comes from a crazy family. His dad has been
very hard on him. If you watch the show, you
see that, you know, I try to commit suicide three
(01:57):
times in the show. And at the end of the day,
he just has, you know, unhaled trauma that he's trying
to deal with and things of that nature. So he
goes to a lot of vices and that makes them,
you know, be mad at Oultreage just that way he is.
Speaker 6 (02:09):
How close are you to the character because you play
the character. So damn good, my brother.
Speaker 5 (02:15):
I'm over here, like, my boy has issues, not.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Just the thing, are you really that good?
Speaker 5 (02:25):
A little bit more.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
I have a lot of energy, a lot of energy.
I'm an animated person. I like to have fun. And
at the end of the day, I think I just
transmitted the energy into just a negative side, but still
kept that energy and kept that animation. Because I didn't
want to have the characters still have redeemable qualities. I
didn't want him to be one noted and boring.
Speaker 5 (02:45):
I say, so, this was exciting for you to play.
Speaker 4 (02:47):
It was evil because because people when people know him personally,
I'm like, if you know Julian, you know he a
goofy animated person.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
So when people are so.
Speaker 4 (02:57):
Believed that you're just this angry person, I'm like, I'm like,
what can that like?
Speaker 6 (03:02):
It's almost like seeing denzil Will be a bad guy
in Trinday. Remember that I kept saying, bro, he's the
nicest guy ever. He being a bad guy was weird.
So when I met you last year and then to
see I was like, wow, you did amazing hey, and
then he didn't.
Speaker 4 (03:16):
So so back backstory is that he didn't know about
what I knew about what you landed. So when he
met you, I'm like, Yo, this is my boy, Julian.
He's an actor, but I ain't want to tell him.
Speaker 5 (03:32):
So he's just like okay together.
Speaker 6 (03:34):
He's so busy, So you know, I'm over here like okay.
And then all of a sudden, I just saw you.
I'm walking at the crib. In the crib, hey, I know,
I said down.
Speaker 5 (03:43):
I was like, Yo, that man full of ship.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
You did a good job.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
Appreciation.
Speaker 4 (03:51):
Now, the crazy thing is that a lot of people
don't know that you played football in your life.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Yes.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
Yeah, he played football in College of Arkansas.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
I played for University Arkansas and then I got picked
up as a free agent with the tenanc Titans for
like five months. Yeah, that's my football get paid. And
I did get that experience in the NFL. That's all
I needed. I didn't need to have a crazy long
tenured experience. I just needed to, you know, to see it,
and that's what I did. Thank God for that.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
Yeah, because you know, you and the Rock have similar stories.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
Something like that. That's how you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 5 (04:23):
Oh, you're headed there, bro, as long as you keep
killing the roles.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
You already know. Bro, I'm just gonntinue to stay humble,
keep focusing on God and doing everything I can to
be the best I can be.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
Now and you had a super Bowl commercial?
Speaker 1 (04:33):
I did? I did? Yes, that was what Circle. You know,
it's so crazy. It's the great thing about my life.
And the great thing was going on just really was
just with the acting, with music and just with football.
It's just like everything feeds into one another. With the football,
the determination, the hard work that I had to go
through in football, it led into my acting career now
the acting. I'm doing music now that led into the music.
(04:54):
With the super Bowl commercial. I had played in this
league called the fx FL, so I cutting from the NFL.
Then they created this league for all the people that
had got recently cut, the Fall Experimental Football League. And
this guy that I played with, I played in Boston
for the team called the Boston Brawlers. This guy named
Garrett Wagner. He started this company like in twenty eighteen,
(05:14):
I really don't know the year, but he started this
company called Circle. And then he had a super Bowl
spot and he was like, Bro, I got the super
Bowl spot. I got That's my daughter's name, Adam Devine,
playing the lead. And then we got Peter Berg directing
the super Bowl commercial and Peter Burger's I'm a big
fan of his because he did Ballers, he did Fight
in That Lights, which is one of my favorite movies.
(05:35):
So then, Bro, that wasn't even like an audition in process.
It was like, Bro, come through, come to la, we
got you. And then next thing you know that it
aired in the super Bowl and everyone's like, oh, Bro,
I just seen you. I just seen you in this
easy check just by relationships and.
Speaker 5 (05:47):
People watched the super.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Bowl, Bro, it was crazy. It was crazy. And just
by having good relationships, staying cool with people working and
seeing that they could trust me and got me that
and you know about that, but we can trust you, Bro,
that just opens up opportu and he's like crazy and
that's just a great thing.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
And that's another access to actors.
Speaker 4 (06:04):
I feel like a lot of actors don't understand the
art of networking and relationships, and people rely so much
on skills set and then they wonder why, Okay, why
did this person get this job in this gig? And
I'm like, because y'all not building relationships with people, people
like hiring people that they.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
Like that shit. They like you, Bro, and they say
they can trust you, and you keep on working hard
to because at the end of the day, I've been
auditioning for Tyler Paper for six years. Wow, you know
what I'm saying. I got Bruh in twenty nineteen, had
a BT plus so called Bruh. I got that in
twenty nineteen. So when casting directors continue to see great
work when you auditioning, you continuously keep on your watching
(06:42):
that film, watching it. And Tyler was just waiting. So
when I bucked the shows that you told your headship
them for you, and I was just you're right, because
at the time of twenty nineteen, when you don't get it,
like damn, I didn't get it, and you're mad, it's
like damn not knowing, like god, like six years it's
gonna be something bigger than Bro. Bigger is gonna be
the biggest show. You don't know that though, by at
the same time, I had my head down, I stay focused,
(07:05):
kept going and kept putting in great work. And Kim callman,
you know she cast me for the show that changed
my life.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
How did that make you feel when you got that
call bro.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
I always say gratitude because you know it wasn't so
smooth at first.
Speaker 3 (07:21):
You just waiting and weighing.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
Because I did the audition and I like, really prepare
for the audition. I was like, yo, I'm just gonna
be the best audition I ever do. Because you know,
when I seen that it was Netflix, I was like,
I gotta get this part. I gotta get this because
I had other movies that I've done, National Champions, the
re Educational Molly Singer. They hit Netflix. So both of
those movies I just named, they both hit theaters. They
(07:44):
didn't do well. People didn't see him. I promoted on
my social media. Some people saw it. If you really
have a close friend of mine, you might have seen it.
But most of the people didn't see it. As soon
as it hit Netflix, everyone's seen it. Yeah, I see you,
I see you, I see you. So my mind I
was like, I got you Netflix, COVID change everything. The
convenience factor is the name of the game. Everyone wants
you to convenient when they watch movies and they you know,
(08:06):
input there, I mean, and take the informent entertainment. So
it's like when I see now, so I want to
do Netflix. I want to do Netflix. So when I
seen Tyler Perry doing Netflix, I was like yo. And
then they had this character Roy and I'm like, you
know the twenties, like twenty crash out, Wow, he party
buming sounds like me. I said, that sounded like me, Like,
(08:30):
we also want you to read for Calvin and also,
uh Steven's part who played my brother Charles. I want
you for Charles too. I was like no, nah nah
nah no. I didn't want you all to even think
about any other parts of me. I said, I want Roy.
I want him. So then like I do the audition.
It's crazy, and then I get a call back like
three days later. I'm like, yo, like you're an audition.
We once you come to LA we goes by. My
(08:53):
agent's like, yeah, they sat and hit us back yet
so he checks in with them and it was unfortunately
Jolane they want direction cool as an actor, you know that.
It's like this is a no business. You're gonna hear
know a lot money here, Yes, on to the next.
But then another week later goes by and then Kim
Coleman is like, is Juliane available? So now they're playing
with me, Like he bro Agent, don't hit me up
(09:14):
unless there's some real, definite news type stuff. And then Bro,
another week went by. I guess they were getting the
business straight and the number straight. And then finally, Bro,
they called me and said I got the part. And
then when I got that call, you know what, I
didn't even care about the money. I didn't care about nothing.
I was just really, really really happy that I was
going to have my work be displayed on Netflix for
(09:34):
the world to see. Because that's all I really care
about in my life. Bro. I just want to honor
God's investment, whatever he's giving me, Bro, I want to
amplify it to the max. And that's what I was
happy about. And then I heard the money too, and
I was like, hell, yeah, the money.
Speaker 6 (09:47):
The money helps you know. Did the check clears in
the account? How are you feeling.
Speaker 5 (09:56):
All right?
Speaker 3 (09:56):
Well?
Speaker 6 (09:57):
Uh, we got a mental health check in once I
for the faith project.
Speaker 5 (10:00):
Keisha, what's having Kesha? What's up now that you have.
Speaker 6 (10:04):
All these things and the success is rolling? And how
do you keep your mental health strong? How you stay sharp?
Speaker 1 (10:10):
Uh? Really? Three things I do consistently prayer Number one,
Pray to God every single day. Imprint in God for
the last seventeen years, like consistently, just every single day,
numerous times a day, just staying checked in with God
and yes, your meditation. Twenty twenty, I was wild and
out and stuff, and I was having panic attacks. I
was going through a lot of anxiety and trusive thoughts, fears, craziness.
Speaker 5 (10:32):
That really, can you fit the profile of the cat
a little bit?
Speaker 1 (10:35):
A little bit, That's what I'm saying. I got this.
This is like my whole life's work prepared for You
knew me in college. I was crazy. Yeah, you know, yeah,
it's kind of prepare for this role. But yeah, meditation
is is is a key component that I have to have,
you know, because like it decreases cortiso, it decreases stress.
It increases great matter in your brain, which makes your
(10:55):
brain just easier to adjust to being present and living
in the now and being president the main thing we
need in this life. So at the end of the day,
meditation and I walk every day. I walk a lot.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
So walk, yeah, walk, I walk a lot, five.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Or six miles, just walking, taking in the nature, getting
the VideA, the DN bro, all those things. Bro. We
start doing that, you just realize that you're really really present,
You're really really in the now. You're in the moment,
and that's the best time to be. You know, you're
in the moment in present. That's the best you and
I love just being present for sure.
Speaker 5 (11:25):
You said the word president. We got someth funny.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
We got a president of our watches.
Speaker 5 (11:30):
You know what I'm saying. I got that aqua boy.
Speaker 6 (11:31):

Speaker 3 (11:35):
Call it the sexy n I just named this today.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
This is what supped.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
So we come bearing gives goodness.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
I got big hands for sure. We're gonna get it.
We're gonna get it for sure. Oh yeah, something every
day now. Yeah, I appreciate you.
Speaker 4 (12:06):
We know, we know, we know you're getting the Netflix
money to Tyler Perry money.
Speaker 3 (12:09):

Speaker 3 (12:19):
That watch look good?
Speaker 1 (12:21):
Look good? For sure.
Speaker 6 (12:23):
So I was gonna say, I was gonna say, man,
I just met you, man, not too long ago through BT.
Speaker 5 (12:27):
I just wanted you know, I'm proud of you.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
Bro. I appreciate that. Bro.
Speaker 5 (12:29):
What you're doing is dope. We was just we just met.
Speaker 4 (12:32):
She just started rapping this year, bro, she started rapping
in February, Bro of this year.
Speaker 6 (12:38):
Bro, And you know to where she's at right now,
it's amazing, you know what I want to tell you.
I know, I know the acting thing is so finicky.
You know what I'm saying, And for me, I ain't
gonna lie. I say this on camera. I actually had
got hired BT rap City at one point. I was
I had the same agent as Big Tigger. I was
(12:59):
working at V one O three and I interviewed.
Speaker 5 (13:03):
I forgot what the lady name was. I interviewed.
Speaker 6 (13:05):
I got the job of Rap City and I hosted
the BT. It was a three C weekend, remember a
three C. I hosted the BT stage. It was a
big deal.
Speaker 5 (13:15):
And then everyone got fired mm hmm. That's when BT
was in DC. They fired everybody and I didn't have
the job no more.
Speaker 6 (13:23):
And I was like, MANU TV, Yeah, facts. I just
kind of sticked to you know what. I felt like
I watered the grass around me, That's what I did,
and I just never wanted to go back to TV.
I just had like a bad tas in your mouth,
tasing my mouth with television. So you know, radio is
like my thing and I like doing content around and
in the show. So this is what I like doing
(13:44):
and look crazy we got We're on Revote, so kind
of back on television.
Speaker 5 (13:48):
But now I'm just doing it.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
But but you're doing it in your own way.
Speaker 4 (13:52):
See the difference is if you would have did it
thy way, they could fire you at any time.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
We own our ship, so can't nobody fire us.
Speaker 6 (13:58):
But back to you, I just you know, I just
know that's such a hard feel to stay positively is
because like you said, you hear.
Speaker 5 (14:05):
So many no's. No, bro, it's it's it's maybe how
many yester is have you heard too?
Speaker 1 (14:10):
It's crazy because it's like and the whole i mean
action for ten years, I got like what thirty credits,
So if you do the math on that, that's not
really that much, you know what I'm saying. But it
really just takes the one takes the one takes the
one and and and to be honest with you, it
really has changed my look on acting a little bit too.
It's like you're doing a lot of parts, get a
(14:31):
lot of roles, and people are and I love people
that are chasing their dreams. And I'm always going to
tell people to chase their dreams. But then it's crazy
because it's like it's almost as if you need to
really like really make it and really make the big
bucks and really like really start really building your career.
You need like a centers, you need a beauty and
black and those things are really a fact. And it's
just get a struct by lightning. And that's very tough
(14:55):
to be in this business, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 5 (14:57):
So that's a perfect analogy. It's like getting struct.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
So this is crazy. You got to think everything. Everything
had to add up perfectly. You got to have the
character add up. You gotta have the streaming platform add up.
You got to have the director add up. We got
we talking about Tyler Perry, the biggest black mogul in
the game. It might have been someone else. I don't
want to watch it, so it's like Tyler Perry. So
it's like to have that happened. It's like, and I
see my life now. I think about some times, what
(15:22):
if I didn't get this part?
Speaker 4 (15:25):
Would and then and then it'd be like how long
would it take when it would be the next time.
Speaker 1 (15:29):
This is crazy too, because I was like, I'm only
thirty three.
Speaker 5 (15:33):
Somebody has to say you.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
We talk, We talk about it, and that is crazy,
but we talk about that all.
Speaker 4 (15:39):
The time because we think as humans that we are
in control of our destiny, and we really not not.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
I tell people all the time, this is what, this is,
what this is. What really got me through though, is
the fact that just like how would your foundation, how
is your mind? That's key because my thing, my thing
is this the way I think I'm always gonna make it.
I always knew I was gonna make it, That's the
way I think. But the reason why I was never
desperate to make it and the reason why I never
(16:07):
yearned for it so much, where it's like I felt
desperate to get it, I already knew God's the greatest
thing we can get in this life. If you know
God's the greatest thing you can get in this life,
you don't yarn for nothing. Now you can let things
come to you easily and more efficient because they're not
so damn. Oh, I gotta get it. I got to
get it. Say you know what, when it happens, it happens.
And yes, life happens because he still got paid bills.
So you gotta work because I'm willing to work. I'm
(16:27):
not I'm not. I ain't doing nothing. Know, I'm gonna
work and do what it takes to, you know, get
money and feed my family and feed and pay my
bills and stuff. But it's like my thing has always
been already got the greatest thing I can see. If
I don't make it, it's okay because I already got
the greatest thing I can see. Sure, So if you're
not yearning for nothing, things can come to you quicker.
Speaker 4 (16:46):
Now.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
You just you just live my life and it's not
much pressure. It's's not desperate for nothing. And that's how
I lived my life. That's how I've been living my life.
And that's why I see my life. And it's like
I was four years old when I said I'm gonna
play in the NFL, I'm gonna be in movies, I'm
act and I'm gonna make music. And it's like be
thirty three and it be like doing the ship that
I said I was gonna do.
Speaker 5 (17:05):
It four manifestation.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
It's just like it's because I had that thought. God
is the greatest manifestation is really what it is. Bro
She never put pressure on nothing. It happened to happen.
It doesn't it doesn't because the end the day, it's
like it is what it is, bro.
Speaker 4 (17:17):
And that's how that's I always felt like, you know,
like growing up, like you seen me do parties and
do all the stuff that I'm that I'm doing now
you know twelve years later and it's just like, man,
if this for me is for me. But one thing
I was never afraid of is working because I've had
multiple jobs and chasing you worked that sprint, man, I
worked that sprint.
Speaker 5 (17:36):
Always complex. I need that, I need that. I had
a roommate on me.
Speaker 4 (17:43):
That's why I never understood why actors who aren't making
money sit there and make this a full time job
and then they fall on hard times and then it's like,
brof it for you. It's gonna be for you, but
you still got to figure out a way to make.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
Money exactly exactly, And at the end of the day,
it's like, like I said, that point goes back to the
god thing. You might not have it, but at the
same time, at least you can be joyful long You've
got joy, bro, and your foundation is good. That's all
that matters, bro, because at least you can continuously keep
living life with your head up and keep smiling bro
through it all, because like I said, it is tough
out here, bro, especially now twenty twenty five. But it's
(18:19):
so saturated. Like you just said, why can't He's made
it right and she made it, bro, and that's great.
I love that for it. But think about everyone trying
to make it. Everybody that's in line, it's like talked
about it, and like your pocket, like your podcast last year,
like everyone trying to be a podcaster.
Speaker 3 (18:32):
Everybody trying to be a podcast.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
So saturated.
Speaker 5 (18:35):
Everything, Everything is oversaturated, bro.
Speaker 3 (18:37):
Everything.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
That's why I'm so grateful because y'all got the position.
Grateful bro, And.
Speaker 4 (18:42):
Think about every think about how many people you passed
just with one role, man, and everybody's looking at.
Speaker 6 (18:48):
You, like, now.
Speaker 5 (18:53):
Okay, before we go, though, has your phone rang for something.
Speaker 1 (18:59):
That's so crazy? It hasn't. Really, Okay, I've gotten. Like
the great thing about it is once you book a
show like this, now it's okay you the bchlon. Now
everything you auditioned the top of the top. Everyone is
the top of the movies, top shows and things of
that nature. Because now you really can't go backwards. I mean,
you can work if it was the right script and
the right you know circumstances of course, but at the
(19:21):
same time, with my agents and things of the natures,
they want to keep on.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
Yeah, we don't want to go back. We want to
go forward.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
Keep it answered.
Speaker 5 (19:27):
Speaking of that, that watch looks really good on you.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
That's exactly. It looks great.
Speaker 6 (19:32):
Looks on top of the other accident A four G,
a Rex by the way, and traditional housing. We got
about seven of those one time for the Faith Project.
You're not talking about.
Speaker 1 (19:41):
You know what I'm doing because you know I do
music as well, right, Yeah, and I produce. So even
this Friday, right, I said, you know what if if
people are not going to hire an efficient rate that
I want them to hire and take this resources that
Tyler Perry's allowed you to have Netflix and make your
own self. So even with the music I put out
the music video that's dropping Friday, go ahead, busted on
(20:03):
my artist Deimo and Erica Banks. I'm getting my acting off.
That's what I do, and give my acting off, even
if it's every video that I want to put out
gonna have a movie element to it.
Speaker 3 (20:13):
Every video.
Speaker 5 (20:14):
I'm smart, yeah, because because like bro, you know, I'm big.
Speaker 1 (20:22):
I'm an athletic. We gonna make you just the romantic,
cheating boyfriend. It's like, Bro, I can do a lot
more than that, and I'm athletic. I like to be
in some action stuff too, you know.
Speaker 5 (20:30):
But I'm a so you're gonna use the video.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
I'm gonna be a bounty hunter, the music guy, be
a war general. Do this at the end of the day.
Now people can see you in different lights now because
the end of the day, they already might have in
their head like, you know, he's in the you know,
he's in the urban world. When they start seeing out
of other like other roles and things of that nature,
they can start being like, oh, you know, I actually
can see him playing and I can't and kill two
birds with one stone. And then the artists that you know,
(20:55):
I'm working with, they can get their shine on because
it's their music, is their song, and at the end
of the day, I get out there because it's my beat,
and so it's like it's hitting on all cylinders. Bro,
taking advantage of the moment.
Speaker 4 (21:04):
Yeah, I like that you're doing that because I feel
like even when Michael B. Jordan's first started with his
career Fruitville Station, they tried to box him in, Yeah,
just because of the type of role that he played.
And I remember I saw an interview with him what
he was telling his agents, like, nah, I want to
go out the doe to total opposite roles that we're
going after because I don't want them to try to
put me in a box of the type.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
This is the type of you know, type casting is
what they call.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
Bro facts and ownership is key. If you can take
control of your career, Bro, you gotta take control of it.
And that's what I'm doing right now with the music,
with the acting and just like implementing my acting and
everything that I do TikTok social media, taking advantage.
Speaker 3 (21:39):
You definitely taken advantage of. Yeah, you're doing You're doing
your things.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
Bought Chris lofton from Power the other day, Like, Bro,
you need to get on TikTok Live. I so for
real and then getting on that bro and just like
people seeing my real personality and people just say connecting
with fans because I'm not bro, Like I said, I'm
here just to honor Guy's investment. That's all I care.
I don't care about the material stuff. I don't care
(22:02):
about the tangible things that you can get in life.
I don't want to be superior to anybody. I just
want someone to say, you know what, nigga, you did
a great job after you don't what that that Seawan
was great. That's all I care about. So I'm with
the people. I'm in the comments. Feel like Roy you
here again, I don't care. I'm being the comments. Bro.
I'm chilling with the people, bro. And they like that
though it's a relatability because it's like they don't think
(22:24):
that people could. It's so used to people like you
know what, you know going off to the sunset. I'm
not doing that, Bro. I'm here to change lives and
use my platform to just if I can change one
person's like bro, with some positivity, with something that God's
getting me. Bro, I'm gonna do that, and at the
end of the day, I'm gonna keep on doing that
and be with the people, bro, because that's what matters
to me. Bro. We all leave in this earth one day.
Speaker 3 (22:43):
Bro, that's a fact.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
We're here in the finite amount of time. So if
your life you're not changing people's lives, what are we doing?
For real? It's not about getting the money, it's not
about getting the riches. It's about changing people's lives, bro,
and using the love to change that. So that's what
I'm trying to do, bro with everything.
Speaker 4 (22:56):
Now, last question, Now, you went viral on TikTok at
Chris Brown concert and you was.
Speaker 3 (23:03):
Looking mad as hell? What was you thinking about?
Speaker 1 (23:07):
Bro? You know, everyone keeps asking me that. I think
it was because like girls kept asking for drinks. That's
what I think it was. I think it was like
the fiftieth shot and I just kept they kept give
another shot, another shot, and I was just tired of
them and like this, and I was just like tired
of it and I'll just sit there and then and
then yeah, that was that was it. But it was
(23:28):
good though. First of all, it was funny. They got me,
You got me. Whoever took that video, you got me.
But it was perfect timing because me then Black just
dropped in the video just dropped the same time. Can't
pay for it. That's what's crazy about social media. It's like,
now I'm seeing that, Okay, if I could make them
fans of me, they're gonna rock with whatever I put
(23:48):
it out type stuff.

Speaker 4 (00:36):
You know BT Broadcasting Love from the Nago Law Firm,
Studio Ferrari and we got Roaled aka Julie hor Now
we was talking off camera. Man, this has been a
long time in the make it man, like you started acting.
Speaker 5 (00:55):
You came up. He came up here last year, right
was it last year?
Speaker 3 (00:58):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (00:58):
Yeah, he was on your last You introduced to me
as growing up with BT, like yeah, I was like okay, cool,
cool cool, and then all of a sudden.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
As one all it takes one brother, you know it's crazy.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
All it take is one man.
Speaker 4 (01:16):
And I used to tell Julian all the time when
he was telling me that, you know, he was doing actor,
I'm like, well, all you needed one was for the.
Speaker 6 (01:22):
People who were just seeing you for the first time.
What television show are you on?
Speaker 1 (01:26):
Beauty and Black?
Speaker 3 (01:28):
First of all, that's the number one.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
And who do you play? Roy Bellery from the Bellery family?
Speaker 5 (01:34):
And let's talk about your character.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
He's he's first of all, he's an outrageous character. He's
he always mad, He's always mad. He's he's outrageous, he's vicious.
But at the same time, it's a little bit misunderstood
at the same time, you know what I'm saying, because
he comes from a crazy family. His dad has been
very hard on him. If you watch the show, you
see that, you know, I try to commit suicide three
(01:57):
times in the show. And at the end of the day,
he just has, you know, unhaled trauma that he's trying
to deal with and things of that nature. So he
goes to a lot of vices and that makes them,
you know, be mad at Oultreage just that way he is.
Speaker 6 (02:09):
How close are you to the character because you play
the character. So damn good, my brother.
Speaker 5 (02:15):
I'm over here, like, my boy has issues, not.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Just the thing, are you really that good?
Speaker 5 (02:25):
A little bit more.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
I have a lot of energy, a lot of energy.
I'm an animated person. I like to have fun. And
at the end of the day, I think I just
transmitted the energy into just a negative side, but still
kept that energy and kept that animation. Because I didn't
want to have the characters still have redeemable qualities. I
didn't want him to be one noted and boring.
Speaker 5 (02:45):
I say, so, this was exciting for you to play.
Speaker 4 (02:47):
It was evil because because people when people know him personally,
I'm like, if you know Julian, you know he a
goofy animated person.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
So when people are so.
Speaker 4 (02:57):
Believed that you're just this angry person, I'm like, I'm like,
what can that like?
Speaker 6 (03:02):
It's almost like seeing denzil Will be a bad guy
in Trinday. Remember that I kept saying, bro, he's the
nicest guy ever. He being a bad guy was weird.
So when I met you last year and then to
see I was like, wow, you did amazing hey, and
then he didn't.
Speaker 4 (03:16):
So so back backstory is that he didn't know about
what I knew about what you landed. So when he
met you, I'm like, Yo, this is my boy, Julian.
He's an actor, but I ain't want to tell him.
Speaker 5 (03:32):
So he's just like okay together.
Speaker 6 (03:34):
He's so busy, So you know, I'm over here like okay.
And then all of a sudden, I just saw you.
I'm walking at the crib. In the crib, hey, I know,
I said down.
Speaker 5 (03:43):
I was like, Yo, that man full of ship.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
You did a good job.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
Appreciation.
Speaker 4 (03:51):
Now, the crazy thing is that a lot of people
don't know that you played football in your life.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Yes.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
Yeah, he played football in College of Arkansas.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
I played for University Arkansas and then I got picked
up as a free agent with the tenanc Titans for
like five months. Yeah, that's my football get paid. And
I did get that experience in the NFL. That's all
I needed. I didn't need to have a crazy long
tenured experience. I just needed to, you know, to see it,
and that's what I did. Thank God for that.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
Yeah, because you know, you and the Rock have similar stories.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
Something like that. That's how you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 5 (04:23):
Oh, you're headed there, bro, as long as you keep
killing the roles.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
You already know. Bro, I'm just gonntinue to stay humble,
keep focusing on God and doing everything I can to
be the best I can be.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
Now and you had a super Bowl commercial?
Speaker 1 (04:33):
I did? I did? Yes, that was what Circle. You know,
it's so crazy. It's the great thing about my life.
And the great thing was going on just really was
just with the acting, with music and just with football.
It's just like everything feeds into one another. With the football,
the determination, the hard work that I had to go
through in football, it led into my acting career now
the acting. I'm doing music now that led into the music.
(04:54):
With the super Bowl commercial. I had played in this
league called the fx FL, so I cutting from the NFL.
Then they created this league for all the people that
had got recently cut, the Fall Experimental Football League. And
this guy that I played with, I played in Boston
for the team called the Boston Brawlers. This guy named
Garrett Wagner. He started this company like in twenty eighteen,
(05:14):
I really don't know the year, but he started this
company called Circle. And then he had a super Bowl
spot and he was like, Bro, I got the super
Bowl spot. I got That's my daughter's name, Adam Devine,
playing the lead. And then we got Peter Berg directing
the super Bowl commercial and Peter Burger's I'm a big
fan of his because he did Ballers, he did Fight
in That Lights, which is one of my favorite movies.
(05:35):
So then, Bro, that wasn't even like an audition in process.
It was like, Bro, come through, come to la, we
got you. And then next thing you know that it
aired in the super Bowl and everyone's like, oh, Bro,
I just seen you. I just seen you in this
easy check just by relationships and.
Speaker 5 (05:47):
People watched the super.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Bowl, Bro, it was crazy. It was crazy. And just
by having good relationships, staying cool with people working and
seeing that they could trust me and got me that
and you know about that, but we can trust you, Bro,
that just opens up opportu and he's like crazy and
that's just a great thing.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
And that's another access to actors.
Speaker 4 (06:04):
I feel like a lot of actors don't understand the
art of networking and relationships, and people rely so much
on skills set and then they wonder why, Okay, why
did this person get this job in this gig? And
I'm like, because y'all not building relationships with people, people
like hiring people that they.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
Like that shit. They like you, Bro, and they say
they can trust you, and you keep on working hard
to because at the end of the day, I've been
auditioning for Tyler Paper for six years. Wow, you know
what I'm saying. I got Bruh in twenty nineteen, had
a BT plus so called Bruh. I got that in
twenty nineteen. So when casting directors continue to see great
work when you auditioning, you continuously keep on your watching
(06:42):
that film, watching it. And Tyler was just waiting. So
when I bucked the shows that you told your headship
them for you, and I was just you're right, because
at the time of twenty nineteen, when you don't get it,
like damn, I didn't get it, and you're mad, it's
like damn not knowing, like god, like six years it's
gonna be something bigger than Bro. Bigger is gonna be
the biggest show. You don't know that though, by at
the same time, I had my head down, I stay focused,
(07:05):
kept going and kept putting in great work. And Kim callman,
you know she cast me for the show that changed
my life.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
How did that make you feel when you got that
call bro.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
I always say gratitude because you know it wasn't so
smooth at first.
Speaker 3 (07:21):
You just waiting and weighing.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
Because I did the audition and I like, really prepare
for the audition. I was like, yo, I'm just gonna
be the best audition I ever do. Because you know,
when I seen that it was Netflix, I was like,
I gotta get this part. I gotta get this because
I had other movies that I've done, National Champions, the
re Educational Molly Singer. They hit Netflix. So both of
those movies I just named, they both hit theaters. They
(07:44):
didn't do well. People didn't see him. I promoted on
my social media. Some people saw it. If you really
have a close friend of mine, you might have seen it.
But most of the people didn't see it. As soon
as it hit Netflix, everyone's seen it. Yeah, I see you,
I see you, I see you. So my mind I
was like, I got you Netflix, COVID change everything. The
convenience factor is the name of the game. Everyone wants
you to convenient when they watch movies and they you know,
(08:06):
input there, I mean, and take the informent entertainment. So
it's like when I see now, so I want to
do Netflix. I want to do Netflix. So when I
seen Tyler Perry doing Netflix, I was like yo. And
then they had this character Roy and I'm like, you
know the twenties, like twenty crash out, Wow, he party
buming sounds like me. I said, that sounded like me, Like,
(08:30):
we also want you to read for Calvin and also,
uh Steven's part who played my brother Charles. I want
you for Charles too. I was like no, nah nah
nah no. I didn't want you all to even think
about any other parts of me. I said, I want Roy.
I want him. So then like I do the audition.
It's crazy, and then I get a call back like
three days later. I'm like, yo, like you're an audition.
We once you come to LA we goes by. My
(08:53):
agent's like, yeah, they sat and hit us back yet
so he checks in with them and it was unfortunately
Jolane they want direction cool as an actor, you know that.
It's like this is a no business. You're gonna hear
know a lot money here, Yes, on to the next.
But then another week later goes by and then Kim
Coleman is like, is Juliane available? So now they're playing
with me, Like he bro Agent, don't hit me up
(09:14):
unless there's some real, definite news type stuff. And then Bro,
another week went by. I guess they were getting the
business straight and the number straight. And then finally, Bro,
they called me and said I got the part. And
then when I got that call, you know what, I
didn't even care about the money. I didn't care about nothing.
I was just really, really really happy that I was
going to have my work be displayed on Netflix for
(09:34):
the world to see. Because that's all I really care
about in my life. Bro. I just want to honor
God's investment, whatever he's giving me, Bro, I want to
amplify it to the max. And that's what I was
happy about. And then I heard the money too, and
I was like, hell, yeah, the money.
Speaker 6 (09:47):
The money helps you know. Did the check clears in
the account? How are you feeling.
Speaker 5 (09:56):
All right?
Speaker 3 (09:56):
Well?
Speaker 6 (09:57):
Uh, we got a mental health check in once I
for the faith project.
Speaker 5 (10:00):
Keisha, what's having Kesha? What's up now that you have.
Speaker 6 (10:04):
All these things and the success is rolling? And how
do you keep your mental health strong? How you stay sharp?
Speaker 1 (10:10):
Uh? Really? Three things I do consistently prayer Number one,
Pray to God every single day. Imprint in God for
the last seventeen years, like consistently, just every single day,
numerous times a day, just staying checked in with God
and yes, your meditation. Twenty twenty, I was wild and
out and stuff, and I was having panic attacks. I
was going through a lot of anxiety and trusive thoughts, fears, craziness.
Speaker 5 (10:32):
That really, can you fit the profile of the cat
a little bit?
Speaker 1 (10:35):
A little bit, That's what I'm saying. I got this.
This is like my whole life's work prepared for You
knew me in college. I was crazy. Yeah, you know, yeah,
it's kind of prepare for this role. But yeah, meditation
is is is a key component that I have to have,
you know, because like it decreases cortiso, it decreases stress.
It increases great matter in your brain, which makes your
(10:55):
brain just easier to adjust to being present and living
in the now and being president the main thing we
need in this life. So at the end of the day,
meditation and I walk every day. I walk a lot.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
So walk, yeah, walk, I walk a lot, five.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Or six miles, just walking, taking in the nature, getting
the VideA, the DN bro, all those things. Bro. We
start doing that, you just realize that you're really really present,
You're really really in the now. You're in the moment,
and that's the best time to be. You know, you're
in the moment in present. That's the best you and
I love just being present for sure.
Speaker 5 (11:25):

I know, I know the acting thing is so finicky.
You know what I'm saying, And for me, I ain't
gonna lie. I say this on camera. I actually had
got hired BT rap City at one point. I was
I had the same agent as Big Tigger. I was
(12:59):
working at V one O three and I interviewed.
Speaker 5 (13:03):
I forgot what the lady name was. I interviewed.
Speaker 6 (13:05):
I got the job of Rap City and I hosted
the BT. It was a three C weekend, remember a
three C. I hosted the BT stage. It was a
big deal.
Speaker 5 (13:15):
And then everyone got fired mm hmm. That's when BT
was in DC. They fired everybody and I didn't have
the job no more.
Speaker 6 (13:23):
And I was like, MANU TV, Yeah, facts. I just
kind of sticked to you know what. I felt like
I watered the grass around me, That's what I did,
and I just never wanted to go back to TV.
I just had like a bad tas in your mouth,
tasing my mouth with television. So you know, radio is
like my thing and I like doing content around and
in the show. So this is what I like doing
(13:44):
and look crazy we got We're on Revote, so kind
of back on television.
Speaker 5 (13:48):
But now I'm just doing it.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
But but you're doing it in your own way.
Speaker 4 (13:52):
See the difference is if you would have did it
thy way, they could fire you at any time.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
We own our ship, so can't nobody fire us.
Speaker 6 (13:58):
But back to you, I just you know, I just

many yester is have you heard too?
Speaker 1 (14:10):
It's crazy because it's like and the whole i mean
action for ten years, I got like what thirty credits,
So if you do the math on that, that's not
really that much, you know what I'm saying. But it
really just takes the one takes the one takes the
one and and and to be honest with you, it
really has changed my look on acting a little bit too.
It's like you're doing a lot of parts, get a
(14:31):
lot of roles, and people are and I love people
that are chasing their dreams. And I'm always going to
tell people to chase their dreams. But then it's crazy
because it's like it's almost as if you need to
really like really make it and really make the big
bucks and really like really start really building your career.
You need like a centers, you need a beauty and
black and those things are really a fact. And it's
just get a struct by lightning. And that's very tough
(14:55):
to be in this business, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 5 (14:57):
So that's a perfect analogy. It's like getting struct.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
So this is crazy. You got to think everything. Everything
had to add up perfectly. You got to have the
character add up. You gotta have the streaming platform add up.
You got to have the director add up. We got
we talking about Tyler Perry, the biggest black mogul in
the game. It might have been someone else. I don't
want to watch it, so it's like Tyler Perry. So
it's like to have that happened. It's like, and I
see my life now. I think about some times, what
(15:22):
if I didn't get this part?
Speaker 4 (15:25):
Would and then and then it'd be like how long
would it take when it would be the next time.
Speaker 1 (15:29):
This is crazy too, because I was like, I'm only
thirty three.
Speaker 5 (15:33):
Somebody has to say you.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
We talk, We talk about it, and that is crazy,
but we talk about that all.
Speaker 4 (15:39):
The time because we think as humans that we are
in control of our destiny, and we really not not.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
I tell people all the time, this is what, this is,
what this is. What really got me through though, is
the fact that just like how would your foundation, how
is your mind? That's key because my thing, my thing
is this the way I think I'm always gonna make it.
I always knew I was gonna make it, That's the
way I think. But the reason why I was never
desperate to make it and the reason why I never
(16:07):
yearned for it so much, where it's like I felt
desperate to get it, I already knew God's the greatest
thing we can get in this life. If you know
God's the greatest thing you can get in this life,
you don't yarn for nothing. Now you can let things
come to you easily and more efficient because they're not
so damn. Oh, I gotta get it. I got to
get it. Say you know what, when it happens, it happens.
And yes, life happens because he still got paid bills.
So you gotta work because I'm willing to work. I'm
(16:27):
not I'm not. I ain't doing nothing. Know, I'm gonna
work and do what it takes to, you know, get
money and feed my family and feed and pay my
bills and stuff. But it's like my thing has always
been already got the greatest thing I can see. If
I don't make it, it's okay because I already got
the greatest thing I can see. Sure, So if you're
not yearning for nothing, things can come to you quicker.
Speaker 4 (16:46):
Now.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
You just you just live my life and it's not
much pressure. It's's not desperate for nothing. And that's how
I lived my life. That's how I've been living my life.
And that's why I see my life. And it's like
I was four years old when I said I'm gonna
play in the NFL, I'm gonna be in movies, I'm
act and I'm gonna make music. And it's like be
thirty three and it be like doing the ship that
I said I was gonna do.
Speaker 5 (17:05):
It four manifestation.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
It's just like it's because I had that thought. God
is the greatest manifestation is really what it is. Bro
She never put pressure on nothing. It happened to happen.
It doesn't it doesn't because the end the day, it's
like it is what it is, bro.
Speaker 4 (17:17):
And that's how that's I always felt like, you know,
like growing up, like you seen me do parties and
do all the stuff that I'm that I'm doing now
you know twelve years later and it's just like, man,
if this for me is for me. But one thing
I was never afraid of is working because I've had
multiple jobs and chasing you worked that sprint, man, I
worked that sprint.
Speaker 5 (17:36):
Always complex. I need that, I need that. I had
a roommate on me.
Speaker 4 (17:43):
That's why I never understood why actors who aren't making
money sit there and make this a full time job
and then they fall on hard times and then it's like,
brof it for you. It's gonna be for you, but
you still got to figure out a way to make.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
Money exactly exactly, And at the end of the day,
it's like, like I said, that point goes back to the
god thing. You might not have it, but at the
same time, at least you can be joyful long You've
got joy, bro, and your foundation is good. That's all
that matters, bro, because at least you can continuously keep
living life with your head up and keep smiling bro
through it all, because like I said, it is tough
out here, bro, especially now twenty twenty five. But it's
(18:19):
so saturated. Like you just said, why can't He's made
it right and she made it, bro, and that's great.
I love that for it. But think about everyone trying
to make it. Everybody that's in line, it's like talked
about it, and like your pocket, like your podcast last year,
like everyone trying to be a podcaster.
Speaker 3 (18:32):
Everybody trying to be a podcast.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
So saturated.
Speaker 5 (18:35):
Everything, Everything is oversaturated, bro.
Speaker 3 (18:37):
Everything.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
That's why I'm so grateful because y'all got the position.
Grateful bro, And.
Speaker 4 (18:42):
Think about every think about how many people you passed
just with one role, man, and everybody's looking at.
Speaker 6 (18:48):
You, like, now.
Speaker 5 (18:53):
Okay, before we go, though, has your phone rang for something.
Speaker 1 (18:59):
That's so crazy? It hasn't. Really, Okay, I've gotten. Like
the great thing about it is once you book a
show like this, now it's okay you the bchlon. Now
everything you auditioned the top of the top. Everyone is
the top of the movies, top shows and things of
that nature. Because now you really can't go backwards. I mean,
you can work if it was the right script and
the right you know circumstances of course, but at the
(19:21):
same time, with my agents and things of the natures,
they want to keep on.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
Yeah, we don't want to go back. We want to
go forward.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
Keep it answered.
Speaker 5 (19:27):
Speaking of that, that watch looks really good on you.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
That's exactly. It looks great.
Speaker 6 (19:32):
Looks on top of the other accident A four G,
a Rex by the way, and traditional housing. We got
about seven of those one time for the Faith Project.
You're not talking about.
Speaker 1 (19:41):
You know what I'm doing because you know I do
music as well, right, Yeah, and I produce. So even
this Friday, right, I said, you know what if if
people are not going to hire an efficient rate that
I want them to hire and take this resources that
Tyler Perry's allowed you to have Netflix and make your
own self. So even with the music I put out
the music video that's dropping Friday, go ahead, busted on
(20:03):
my artist Deimo and Erica Banks. I'm getting my acting off.
That's what I do, and give my acting off, even
if it's every video that I want to put out
gonna have a movie element to it.
Speaker 3 (20:13):
Every video.
Speaker 5 (20:14):
I'm smart, yeah, because because like bro, you know, I'm big.
Speaker 1 (20:22):
I'm an athletic. We gonna make you just the romantic,
cheating boyfriend. It's like, Bro, I can do a lot
more than that, and I'm athletic. I like to be
in some action stuff too, you know.
Speaker 5 (20:30):
But I'm a so you're gonna use the video.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
I'm gonna be a bounty hunter, the music guy, be
a war general. Do this at the end of the day.
Now people can see you in different lights now because
the end of the day, they already might have in
their head like, you know, he's in the you know,
he's in the urban world. When they start seeing out
of other like other roles and things of that nature,
they can start being like, oh, you know, I actually
can see him playing and I can't and kill two
birds with one stone. And then the artists that you know,
(20:55):
I'm working with, they can get their shine on because
it's their music, is their song, and at the end
of the day, I get out there because it's my beat,
and so it's like it's hitting on all cylinders. Bro,
taking advantage of the moment.
Speaker 4 (21:04):
Yeah, I like that you're doing that because I feel
like even when Michael B. Jordan's first started with his
career Fruitville Station, they tried to box him in, Yeah,
just because of the type of role that he played.
And I remember I saw an interview with him what
he was telling his agents, like, nah, I want to
go out the doe to total opposite roles that we're
going after because I don't want them to try to
put me in a box of the type.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
This is the type of you know, type casting is
what they call.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
Bro facts and ownership is key. If you can take
control of your career, Bro, you gotta take control of it.
And that's what I'm doing right now with the music,
with the acting and just like implementing my acting and
everything that I do TikTok social media, taking advantage.
Speaker 3 (21:39):
You definitely taken advantage of. Yeah, you're doing You're doing
your things.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
Bought Chris lofton from Power the other day, Like, Bro,
you need to get on TikTok Live. I so for
real and then getting on that bro and just like
people seeing my real personality and people just say connecting
with fans because I'm not bro, Like I said, I'm
here just to honor Guy's investment. That's all I care.
I don't care about the material stuff. I don't care
(22:02):
about the tangible things that you can get in life.
I don't want to be superior to anybody. I just
want someone to say, you know what, nigga, you did
a great job after you don't what that that Seawan
was great. That's all I care about. So I'm with
the people. I'm in the comments. Feel like Roy you
here again, I don't care. I'm being the comments. Bro.
I'm chilling with the people, bro. And they like that
though it's a relatability because it's like they don't think
(22:24):
that people could. It's so used to people like you
know what, you know going off to the sunset. I'm
not doing that, Bro. I'm here to change lives and
use my platform to just if I can change one
person's like bro, with some positivity, with something that God's
getting me. Bro, I'm gonna do that, and at the
end of the day, I'm gonna keep on doing that
and be with the people, bro, because that's what matters
to me. Bro. We all leave in this earth one day.
Speaker 3 (22:43):
Bro, that's a fact.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
We're here in the finite amount of time. So if
your life you're not changing people's lives, what are we doing?
For real? It's not about getting the money, it's not
about getting the riches. It's about changing people's lives, bro,
and using the love to change that. So that's what
I'm trying to do, bro with everything.
Speaker 4 (22:56):
Now, last question, Now, you went viral on TikTok at
Chris Brown concert and you was.
Speaker 3 (23:03):
Looking mad as hell? What was you thinking about?
Speaker 1 (23:07):
Bro? You know, everyone keeps asking me that. I think
it was because like girls kept asking for drinks. That's
what I think it was. I think it was like
the fiftieth shot and I just kept they kept give
another shot, another shot, and I was just tired of
them and like this, and I was just like tired
of it and I'll just sit there and then and
then yeah, that was that was it. But it was
(23:28):
good though. First of all, it was funny. They got me,
You got me. Whoever took that video, you got me.
But it was perfect timing because me then Black just
dropped in the video just dropped the same time. Can't
pay for it. That's what's crazy about social media. It's like,
now I'm seeing that, Okay, if I could make them
fans of me, they're gonna rock with whatever I put
(23:48):
it out type stuff.
Speaker 3 (23:49):

Speaker 1 (23:50):

rock with him whatever he does.
