Speaker 1 (00:19):
For having me and Shawn love.

Speaker 4 (00:20):
This is your first year performing at Angelo Eating m
hm okay.

Speaker 1 (00:23):
And I was excited this year in particular.

Speaker 3 (00:25):
I feel like, and I know everyone's been saying this,
but the women have really been on fire. So I
was excited that you came. London Hill was there, Young
Devin was there, Scarlet.

Speaker 2 (00:35):
Yeah, I saw her. She had pulled up when I
was walking out.

Speaker 1 (00:39):
And Maca Diamond and so it was fun.

Speaker 4 (00:41):
Ye had a lot of not that you listed them,
you did have a lot of women at Angeli Eating.

Speaker 1 (00:45):
Listen, that's my design and hip hop.

Speaker 4 (00:47):
Yeah, it's about you right now.

Speaker 3 (00:50):
And this is a good time for you though, to
be in this space. By the way, man O played
an unreleased song really that he has with you, Yes,
yes fire song like it this out soon.

Speaker 1 (01:00):
He was like, you know, we gotta have a plan
we go.

Speaker 2 (01:02):
Oh my guys were saying that for a year now.

Speaker 4 (01:05):
We like that song, don't we, Angela.

Speaker 3 (01:07):
I understand though, also wanting to make sure you have
a setup when you put something out right, and that's
something that you have to think about. So let's talk
about you as an artist, because this is gonna be
your I guess the next project.

Speaker 1 (01:20):
Is it a full album that you're doing or I.

Speaker 2 (01:23):
Haven't really put it together yet but right now, just
been dropping singles okay, So but it is true though,
Like it's like even all the songs that I'm like
dropping right now, I've been recorded, been shot the video.
So it's like everything just has to come out at
the right time.

Speaker 1 (01:35):
Right, so and have a plan.

Speaker 3 (01:36):
So you got boy oh boy out right now, and
you got a sample right oh boy from camera?

Speaker 1 (01:43):
So what was that like?

Speaker 2 (01:44):
Clearing up a process? It took No, it took like,
I say, like three four months.

Speaker 4 (01:51):
That's ball shit.

Speaker 1 (01:56):
People do that.

Speaker 4 (01:57):
It takes people longer than that.

Speaker 1 (01:59):
Some people don't get cleared at all.

Speaker 4 (02:01):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:01):
Well, I mean it's because my manager's from Harlem, okay,
so it's like he knows all of them. So it
was kind of like a lawyer on top of yo, bro,
please just clear you know, and and the record being
a good record. So it's like when they heard, especially
when Jim and Duell's came to the video, they actually
was like, Yo, this song is fired though.

Speaker 1 (02:20):
That's good.

Speaker 2 (02:21):
Yeah, it felt good.

Speaker 3 (02:23):
And you do get a lot of co signs from
people obviously we know lit that yeah with five Yeo
and France Montana and those are huge co signs as well.
And I remember there used to be a time when
a woman had to be signed under a guy, remember that.

Speaker 4 (02:39):
To be part of his crew.

Speaker 3 (02:40):
Yeah, you got to be part of the crew, and
things have changed a lot. Was there ever, when you
first came out, Was there ever any pressure you felt
like that I got to be like signed to somebody.

Speaker 1 (02:48):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (02:49):
Yeah, for sure. I feel like when I first came
in the game, it's like you had to have like
an attachment to some type of like rapper that was
already in the game to like kind of get on.
And I kind of felt like that's kind of how
French helped me too, like because even me skinning a
sign to my management at the time, uh sal and Co.
It was like kind of came from French and all them,

(03:09):
and then they helped me like put out the lip
Bitch song and like my last project. So I do
kind of feel like it was like that in the beginning,
but I feel like right now I'm just on my own.

Speaker 3 (03:17):
You know what else is funny to keep it. A
lot of these guys who are older than you, they
know your mom. They're like, oh, yeah, I'm friends with
Chinese Nikki, But that's.

Speaker 1 (03:25):
Funny, like yeah, how young you are?

Speaker 2 (03:29):
Yeah, I know, I know, I know, I know. Yeah.
My mom is like a real pioneer. She really taught
me everything that's going on.

Speaker 4 (03:34):
So how does she do? You see, do you go
to her for advice or you know.

Speaker 2 (03:37):
I do?

Speaker 1 (03:38):
I do? I do?

Speaker 2 (03:38):
I do? I go to advice for her from her
from relationship to music.

Speaker 4 (03:43):
To what's the best piece of advice she's ever given you?

Speaker 2 (03:47):
She gives me a lot of advice, but basically, like
you know, always just you know, at the end of
the day, like I'm here and you know, I just
got to keep moving and never stopping. There's been times
I swear that I'll be like Mom, I don't want
to do this no more. I just want to be
at home. I can't, like I can't. It's like the
industry is too much. And she'd be like, and do

(04:07):
what and so that at home and do what and
I'll be like, oh, okay, mom, you're right. Yeah, she'd
be honest.

Speaker 3 (04:12):
The industry is tough though it is people think it's easy,
like it's it's nowhere near easy. Yeah, because you can
be as talented as you are. But like you said,
it is a whole plan that has to go into effect.
Even when Manna was playing a song, he was like, yo,
I think she's really dope, Like she sounds so dope.
And for you to have clearances and they have those
guest appearances in your video, people don't just do that, no,

(04:35):
you know so.

Speaker 2 (04:36):
And I also think it's like like over a time,
people seeing how much I take this serious too, Because
if I feel like I asked for that like five
years ago or three years ago, they'd be like please,
you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (04:47):
But I feel like you gotta pay dues.

Speaker 2 (04:49):
Yeah exactly, No, I'm one hundred percent into that. So
I feel like me just working hard. It's like people
are starting to respect it too.

Speaker 3 (04:56):
So all right, and then what about relationship drama? Now,
a lot of this songs deal with relationship dramas, so
that's great because that's relatable. Yeah, then in real life
that could be a distraction.

Speaker 2 (05:07):
You think, so like what, yes, what, I'm.

Speaker 3 (05:10):
Confused though, you're not like saying, because like, guys can
be a distraction when you.

Speaker 2 (05:13):
Guys are a distraction. And that's crazy because I really
feel like I made those two records Going Mind and
Boil Boy in the same month.

Speaker 1 (05:24):
Yeah, so it's kind.

Speaker 2 (05:25):
Of like exactly how it was feeling, and that's what
you know, inspired me. But at the same time, same token,
I also did take a break off music because I
couldn't get my headspace together.

Speaker 4 (05:35):
You how were you able to you couldn't get your
hairspace together because of relationships?

Speaker 2 (05:38):
Because because of the guy I was saying at the time, absolutely, how.

Speaker 4 (05:41):
Were you able to move forward with the getting back
to life?

Speaker 2 (05:44):
I dropped him?

Speaker 4 (05:45):
I kind of should be back this guy, the Watch
the Watch guy.

Speaker 2 (05:51):
No, I'm not. What's since what since before I came
on lip Service, we have not been.

Speaker 3 (05:58):
Together because you went back a couple of times. I'm
not going back, Okay.

Speaker 2 (06:03):
Have fa.

Speaker 1 (06:08):
I'm really not.

Speaker 2 (06:08):
I'm actually dating somebody news go for you.

Speaker 3 (06:12):
What did you learn from that now that you're dating
somebody new, What are some things that you're like, I'm
never going through X, Y and Z again.

Speaker 2 (06:18):
I basically can see like straight toxicity off the rip.
Like it's certain things that I'm like, Okay, yeah, no,
I'm not putting up with this type of behavior because
it's giving me exactly what my old relationship was. So
like certain things like and I feel like a girl
like me that's in the industry that's around a lot
of rappers and this and that. It's like every guy,
I don't care if he's a basketball player or a

(06:40):
rapper or just a regular guy. It gives off some
type of intimidation, you know. So it's like, now I
know as a woman how to make a guy feel like, no,
it's not that, that's just my career and I only
want you, you know. And there's a lot of mistakes
that I made before too, And there's certain things and
guys where it's like I feel like if you are
showing any type of like insecurities off the rip, it

(07:02):
makes me feel weird, you.

Speaker 3 (07:03):
Know, that's unattracted when a man is insecure. What are
some things that you feel like you said, you've made
mistakes to you don't like like.

Speaker 1 (07:16):
You know what.

Speaker 2 (07:16):
The old me used to do a lot of toxic
shit too. I'm sorry, I talk to stuff too, but
I feel like if a guy did something to me,
I would do it back, would and the worst way possible.
So it's like, oh, you try to like front of
me with a regular, you know, average girl, and then
now I'm gonna be next to this.

Speaker 3 (07:36):
Rapper and We're gonna be like and your feelings are
gonna be hurt.

Speaker 2 (07:39):
Yeah, And I used to do that a lot, but
then go back to the same guy. So now it's
like all this baggage. Now we're back together and we're
like trying to get over that and just can't, like
we really can't.

Speaker 1 (07:50):
So that's kind of like boy or boy.

Speaker 3 (07:52):
Yeah, I'm gonna say it seems like just from that song,
you might have a little bit of vindictiveness in you
when it comes.

Speaker 2 (07:58):
To Angela, She's always trying to pull me out.

Speaker 4 (08:01):
It's music.

Speaker 1 (08:02):
Yeah, it makes sense.

Speaker 2 (08:05):
A little bit, a little bit. I'm a I'm good now.
I feel like I'm a great person. When it comes
to relationship, She's a work in progress.

Speaker 1 (08:11):
I mean this song just came out. So the song
just came out, so she did already learned.

Speaker 4 (08:17):
But you know, she said, the song will be like
a year old all right?

Speaker 2 (08:20):
That exactly. All right.

Speaker 1 (08:22):
Well, let's see, let me ask you a couple questions.

Speaker 3 (08:24):
Now you're in a real relationship, right, So let's just say,
in a hypothetical situation, let's say, yeah, let me.

Speaker 1 (08:30):
Drink a little bit.

Speaker 2 (08:31):
You I'll drink too, m hm, cheers.

Speaker 3 (08:34):
Let's just say your ex sent you a present out
of the blue, you haven't spoken to him in a while, right,
and just sent it in the mail. Would you accept
it and keep quiet? Or would you say something to
your new boo? What would you do?

Speaker 2 (08:46):
I feel like, because I'm happy in my new situation,
I'm definitely gonna tell him. But I feel like the
old me would have been like a new person, you know.
But I feel like it's more important to keep your
situation happy, because I've been through that process already, where
it's like I used to keep the bags and even
if it wasn't from an ex, it'd be from like
if me and you know, my ex or whatever, had

(09:07):
a week where we weren't speaking, I would go talk
to the next guy, or get this or get that
from the next guy, and then we come back together
and it's like, well, who bought you that, you know?
And it's like it's too much that I don't want nothing.

Speaker 1 (09:17):
Like show money.

Speaker 2 (09:20):
Yeah, but they know I don't like to have my
own money, so.

Speaker 4 (09:24):
They don't even sound like you exactly.

Speaker 1 (09:27):
Well, what do you do with your own money?

Speaker 2 (09:29):
I save it and I definitely always try to look
out for like my family.

Speaker 3 (09:34):
Okay, so what about investments since we're talking about that.

Speaker 2 (09:39):
I haven't invested in anything yet.

Speaker 4 (09:40):
Okay, Angela, you need to you need to lecture her.
Please not lecture her.

Speaker 3 (09:44):
But I'm gonna just say this all right, money just
sitting in the bank is not gonna do nothing for you.

Speaker 1 (09:49):
It's not working. My money gotta work. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (09:53):
So whether or not you decide to like get yourself
a property, go through it with the real realtor and
everything and an attorney of real estate attorney, so you
do everything the right way. But I think that is
like the best level of security.

Speaker 1 (10:04):
At first.

Speaker 3 (10:05):
It's just to buy some place that you know, I
always am going to have a house to live in
no matter what, and it's going to appreciate in value
that money sitting in the bank, That little bit of
percentage that could potentially earn is nothing compared to if
you buy something and you're like, all right, now I
got a place you know, to live and for your
son later on when he's of age and you you know,
and you can pass that down to him.

Speaker 1 (10:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (10:26):
And that's the same advice Angela gives me or gave me.
I grew up broken poor, so when I would get no,
when I would get money, I just want to hold.

Speaker 2 (10:34):
On to it because we always feel like, I mean,
that's when we all come like, when you do get
the money, it's like I'm just to myself.

Speaker 4 (10:41):
Yeah, I don't want to Yeah, but you.

Speaker 2 (10:42):
Know, scare money don't make mone Yeah me. So, I
mean it's true. I do hear this, like my mom.
My grandfather just told me that the other day. So
I do have to get on top of that.

Speaker 3 (10:51):
Yeah, because you got some Caribbean roots to My grandfather's
favorite saying was save your money, buy a house. I
could be buying something for ten dollars, he'd be like,
save your money, buy a house. I'm Grandpa, I got
to eat.

Speaker 4 (11:01):
I don't know believe what's what's the biggest part is
you've ever made? You know, it's not a you know, investment,
but what's the biggest, expensive, pricest thing my watch? Oh yeah,
we talked about that part of her No.

Speaker 2 (11:13):
But I know what on my own, completely my.

Speaker 1 (11:17):
Own you know what.

Speaker 3 (11:18):
When you did lip service, people love that interview because
they love how open.

Speaker 1 (11:22):
And transparent you were and fun.

Speaker 3 (11:24):
It's true, like the main thing that people were saying,
is this the type of interview that I like when
people could come on and just be fun and answer
like any questions.

Speaker 4 (11:32):
And it makes you human too, because a lot of people,
I feel like, wouldn't admit that.

Speaker 3 (11:36):
Yeah, because it actually is. We look back at things
that we did and.

Speaker 4 (11:39):
It's it's not that bad. I'm just saying women, you know,
women happens, but they're nobody.

Speaker 2 (11:43):
I feel like we're all humans at the end of
the day. Not everybody lives it perfect, Like you could
be a millionaire and if they have ship in the
closet that they're hiding. So it's like, what's the point.

Speaker 4 (11:53):
So it was at what kind of watch was it?
Or is it what the watch?

Speaker 2 (11:56):
Now? Is it?

Speaker 4 (11:56):
Like it's because that's an investment and an investment.

Speaker 2 (11:58):
Yea, it is investment. It's paddock.

Speaker 1 (12:00):
Okay, isn't it short? Is it in? Short?

Speaker 2 (12:05):
To get it was just packing me up, you know
what it is? Yeah, yeah, I'm going to do that.

Speaker 4 (12:13):
But that's an that's an investment right there.

Speaker 2 (12:15):
Yeah it is.

Speaker 3 (12:17):
Yeah, because we've seen these watches go up in value,
Like I hate the fact that I never did that.

Speaker 1 (12:21):
I'm like I should have been, but watch.

Speaker 4 (12:24):
It's just so much.

Speaker 2 (12:25):
I just I've got a house, like a nice rollie
for like.

Speaker 4 (12:29):
How much, all different types.

Speaker 1 (12:31):
There's levels thou Oh yeah, you can get it. Used
to if you wanted to certified.

Speaker 2 (12:38):
Rolex was like the little one. It was like five thousand. Okay.

Speaker 4 (12:45):
I do some investments, but I just never have bought
a jewelry, Like it's really what.

Speaker 2 (12:50):
You're into, because I feel like having a house is
more of a flex you can do. Somebody like I
own this, like a lot of people don't, especially in
my industry, Like yeah, you telling me that, It's like
it's like now you know.

Speaker 1 (13:02):
And I'm gonna be honest.

Speaker 3 (13:03):
When you get your first house, just think of it
as it's not my be all and all dream house.
This is my first house. It's a good investment. This
is a great purchase. It's something that's going to appreciate
in a neighborhood and may not even have to be
the best place yet, but you can see it's like
on the rise.

Speaker 1 (13:19):
You know.

Speaker 3 (13:20):
My first house that I bought in Brooklyn in bed
Stive Love the house nine hundred and eighty five thousand
dollars I pay for right a two family brownstone, so
I had income coming in from the tenant downstairs. And
now that house is worth almost two million dollars and
that was yeah, and not still have it. Oh and
we keep on going up in value. I need to

(13:40):
go yeah.

Speaker 1 (13:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (13:42):
And then she's she's gonna get a new one. Yeah,
she's working on.

Speaker 3 (13:45):
But I just want to say that to you because
while you're saving your money and getting you know, and look,
we love the fact that you get what you got
to get, but don't just keep your money in the bank.
That's all I'm saying, Like, make sure you do something
with it.

Speaker 4 (13:56):
Yeah, and listen on a DC is way less expensive.
Back in two thousand and eight, I bought a house,
it was only like two hundred thousand. Now it's worth
like five hundred thousand. So it's like it depends on
where you stay. You can always and it was it
was the market crash, so it was a good opportunity.
So you have to.

Speaker 2 (14:11):
Buy something like Atlanta. Y, yes, you can do that.

Speaker 4 (14:13):
Yeah you can. You know, you have options, and you
have resources, you have people that know what makes sense,
you know. Yeah, and when you like this and we like,
we like to go in with you. So we bought
a prop We got a thirty in Detroit. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (14:26):
Yeah, we bought a building, thirty unit building. And another
thing I say is, you know, all depending on what
your situation is. But I also have a condo in Brooklyn,
and some people will tell you it's not good because
you have to pay the fees.

Speaker 1 (14:39):
The house, home owners whatever it wants, Yes, homeowners.

Speaker 3 (14:43):
I like it because it's really little me and it's
I know, it's in a building where there's a management
company that takes care of everything, so when something goes.

Speaker 1 (14:49):
Wrong, I don't have to like hire everybody.

Speaker 3 (14:52):
Comment there's people there to handle it, and so it's
just easier for me in the situation that I'm in.
So I have like a mixture of things. So I've
learned a lot and you're ready to buy if you
want to. Just my friends will come and be like,
what do you think about this?

Speaker 2 (15:04):
I'm texting you. I really want to get into that.

Speaker 3 (15:07):
So now next thing I want to talk about is
who is this new guy? What we gotta give all
of them, but just tell us, like how he managed
to lock you in?

Speaker 1 (15:18):
Or are you locked in? Or is it just still early?

Speaker 2 (15:20):
It's very early. Okay, we're like still like dating, but like, also,
I'm not dotting anybody else.

Speaker 1 (15:27):
Okay, what is that called situation?

Speaker 2 (15:30):
Situationship?

Speaker 4 (15:31):
That's when I talked.

Speaker 2 (15:32):
He was like I never heard that word before. Yes,
you're a but okay, anyways, he's this guy, he's sli
my DM. Okay, I didn't know who he was.

Speaker 1 (15:42):
Did he have a blue check?

Speaker 2 (15:43):
He did?

Speaker 1 (15:43):
Okay?

Speaker 3 (15:44):
Okay, uh yeah, yeah yeah.

Speaker 2 (15:50):
And yeah I don't know. Like he's a really nice
guy and he motivates me. So that's the most important part.
I've never had a guy motivating. Every other relationship is
like they just want me to be in the house.
And I even had a guy tell me before, like
you don't have to rap, like just stop stop doing
music and take care of you and it's like, yes,

(16:10):
it's it's tempting, but it's like them, what, because you're
not even one hundred percent in this relationship like that.
So it's like, then, what, I have nothing?

Speaker 4 (16:19):
You need to always make sure you can take care.

Speaker 3 (16:21):
Of yourself, have power over you too when you're relying
on them for everything. And now I can't. Now wasted
five years not rapping and we broke up.

Speaker 2 (16:29):
Now no, I have nothing. And I think that's what
guys goals. I mean, I don't know. Sometimes I'll be
thinking that's what they be wanting. But that's why I
do appreciate this new guy because he literally, are you
going to the gym? You haven't been to the jim
in two weeks? Okay, when's the last time you've been
to the studio? Oh? Show me? Even today he was like,
show me some videos. Oh my god, I love watching
Angelie show.

Speaker 4 (16:46):
So I'm like, yes, it is sweet. That's kind of
like that. It's thoughtful.

Speaker 2 (16:50):
It's no for me. A lot of times I'm like,
when it's something is too good, I just swear something's
gonna like fail.

Speaker 3 (16:58):
But sometimes the attitude got to be like I'm enjoying
this and I love this and I deserve this.

Speaker 2 (17:03):
No, I know. That's what I've been telling myself. That's
my friend's been telling me. So I'm like, I gotta
keep positive.

Speaker 3 (17:08):
Now, do you ask him a lot of questions about
like his past, what's his relationship situation? Because you know,
we're all getting out of something when we get with somebody,
I do, I do?

Speaker 4 (17:17):
I do?

Speaker 2 (17:18):
Yeah, he has like a past situation. It's like kind
of you know he's dealing with but he's not dealing
with it. But it's like, you know, we.

Speaker 4 (17:25):
All have somebody.

Speaker 2 (17:26):
You know that, right, So it's like.

Speaker 1 (17:27):
Something going on.

Speaker 2 (17:28):
I'll just be asking certain things. So I want to
know how it ended between them, you know, like or
what happened, so I know you know what.

Speaker 4 (17:34):
You're dealing with.

Speaker 3 (17:35):
Yeah, because I don't like when guys talk crazy about
their ex It make you feel like what did you? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (17:40):
Did You's crazy?

Speaker 4 (17:42):

Speaker 3 (17:48):
Yeah? All right, and so let me ask you this,
What did he say to you that made you even
feel like I'll give him a shot?

Speaker 2 (17:56):
Okay, So he slid in my DM and he was
like hell, and I was like.

Speaker 1 (18:01):
Okay, hello, that's the they call that fishing.

Speaker 4 (18:04):
When you do that, you just say one thing and
then you wait for the present response.

Speaker 2 (18:07):
Okay, he has no pictures of so I was like,
what the hell? So I had to go google him
and I'm like, okay, wait, he's somebody all right. He's
cute though. I like him. I like the way he
dresses whatever. And he tried to fly me out, and
I was like no, because I don't want a guy
to think. You know, when when automatically, when you go
fly out to see somebody that you don't know, they
expect something, and I'm just not with that, especially when

(18:28):
I first meet somebody. So I told him that I
was actually flying down to Miami for a hosting, and
he came and met me out there, okay, and he
What really like got me is that he was so
nice to my friends, Like he made sure that we
were all good, not just me, all of us. If
anybody was hungry, you good, everybody good. You know, his

(18:48):
friends connected with my friends and like we.

Speaker 1 (18:50):
Just had a great everyone gets great time.

Speaker 2 (18:54):
And then my friends kept saying to me, like, so,
what are you gonna do with this guy? We like him.

Speaker 3 (18:59):
By the way very smart of him, because absolutely that's
what you was a guy.

Speaker 1 (19:04):
You want the friends to be rallying.

Speaker 4 (19:06):
Yeah they were, Yeah, they really are doing.

Speaker 1 (19:10):
If Jessie would have been there, he'd have been broke feeding.

Speaker 4 (19:12):
You because I'd been like, we like to we need
to wear appetizers and then she'll be okay.

Speaker 2 (19:17):
Don't worry. Some of my friends were definitely doing that.
I'm looking at them like, I don't.

Speaker 3 (19:21):
Like when when people be ordering stuff that they would
never normally order.

Speaker 4 (19:24):
Well, first of all, I will order everything that I
normally know.

Speaker 3 (19:26):
What I'm saying, like if you have let me get
a shout in nineteen forty two, that'll let me do.
And they be doing like extra stuff. It's like, don't
take advantage of my guy.

Speaker 2 (19:34):
Yeah. One of my friends, he took us to a
seafood spot and she's there and I'm like, she's like,
I don't eat.

Speaker 4 (19:38):
This at her like, don't do that, yeah, don't get
out of the nowhere.

Speaker 2 (19:45):
It was like, when you're with me, you're like, you know, real,
meek and humble. Now all of a sudden, I don't
eat this, then why didn't we go ahead? Girls?

Speaker 4 (19:52):
Leave her home? Next time?

Speaker 3 (19:53):
And listen, we got to watch you and your friends too, okay,
because we don't want you to situation.

Speaker 1 (19:58):
I don't hang out with those type of birds.

Speaker 2 (20:00):
No, no, no, no no. My friends now are just the
same people that is in my click and that's it.

Speaker 4 (20:06):
Okay, we got to be careful. You got some stories looking.

Speaker 2 (20:10):
You learn from your mistakes.

Speaker 3 (20:11):
As you should, and that's a mistake, except for you
learn the most from your mistakes.

Speaker 2 (20:15):
Definitely.

Speaker 3 (20:16):
All right, So what do you think of some misconceptions
when it comes to Chinese Kitty, Like what people might
think about you, but know the real is this.

Speaker 2 (20:23):
I think a lot of people think that I am superficial,
suck up and maybe not friendly for real, but when
they meet me, it's like complete opposite, Like when people
be like, oh my god, your personality is so chill
and comforting, and it's like, because yes, I come off
on Instagram like you know, I have it all together,

(20:43):
but you know, we're all humans and we're all figuring
it out. And I think that's what people like you
said when they watch the interview, they can't believe it
because they expect when I go on there to be like, yeah,
well God got me this and da da. But it's like,
you know, I'm my personality is what attracts people when
they get to know me, you know, And I feel
like when people do get to know me, it's like, no,
she's completely opposite, right, So yeah, I.

Speaker 3 (21:05):
Mean for sure, and listen, would you do any more
television like reality TV? Could you see yourself on anything?
Or maybe your own situation?

Speaker 2 (21:14):
Yeah? I feel like I was saying no for a
long time because I was scarred from.

Speaker 4 (21:19):
The first somebody else would have been scarred. Actually, no,
you did you snatch somebody's Oh.

Speaker 2 (21:25):
You know what? That wasn't me. That was my mom
who did that. No, but yeah, basically, but I yeah,
she don't play about her baby. Was I gonna say?
I don't mind?

Speaker 4 (21:37):
Like you would do reality TV? Again?

Speaker 2 (21:39):
I feel like, for like a quick little second.

Speaker 3 (21:41):
Right, I feel like you also know what to expect,
and so when you go in there, because sometimes people
really think you're gonna go in there and they're gonna
be like, all right, we're gonna focus on my business.

Speaker 1 (21:51):
We're gonna know and that's that's.

Speaker 2 (21:53):
What I thought. I'm like, Okay, you know, this is
a good opportunity. You know, it's gonna be no drama.

Speaker 4 (21:58):
Everyone thinks, listen, why do y'all okay, what what do
they What did the producers say to you to make
you think that that's what's gonna happen, because you'll all
say this.

Speaker 2 (22:04):
They sell a dream what I am? Oh, listen, you
know you're only hearing life and you're gonna be here
and you're gonna be You're gonna catapult, like you see
what CARDI be, what we did with they say, they
say it all girl, they say it all okay.

Speaker 4 (22:20):
They because all talent and celebs and stuff, say like
they told I felt like I was gonna be on there, So.

Speaker 3 (22:24):
Make you feel like you're getting casted because they're like, okay,
so what are you doing?

Speaker 1 (22:28):
So you got this.

Speaker 3 (22:28):
Career, we'll put your mama, We got this going on.
So the storyline, we're trying to make it more positive.
They always say, we're trying to make it more positive.

Speaker 2 (22:36):
No, they don't, because they will put you in the
most absurd scene. But I was only like what twenty
two on there.

Speaker 4 (22:44):
So it was I really didn't know ship And can
you imagine being on reality TV at twenty two? No,
I would be I would be every for social.

Speaker 1 (22:52):
Media when I was twenty say, because I would be
a mess.

Speaker 3 (22:55):
I say, thank god all that if you wasn't there,
that's true. So what about and let's talk about your son,
because I'm sure that he is loving by the way,
he's so cute, because I did get a chance to
meet him. So what does he have any type of
musical ambitions now?

Speaker 2 (23:15):
All the time? Like he's yes, every time I go
to the studio, well, I want to record too, and
I want to get behind the booth. And then when
I'm in the actual booth, he likes to come in
the room with me and stand there and watches me
like he's like and fantasized by it. And then it's
crazy because by in his old school that I just
took him out of because we moved, the principal knew

(23:36):
who I was, so he would come home and be like,
do you ever get tired of being Chinese kiddy? Like
he literally said these things to me, Like it's crazy,
But I mean he's already in it, and he inspires
me a lot too. Like the other day when we
were at Belair, they wanted me to say some line
over and over and over. I was over it. And
he's sitting there. He's like, Mommy, you got to say

(23:57):
with more confidence, like and everybody in the room wants
to pass out, Like, oh my god, I can't believe
he's like a huge personality.

Speaker 1 (24:05):
Wait bel air, go back to that.

Speaker 2 (24:07):
Oh I did like a like wait a minute, what
what was it a tasting? I mean my own drink. Okay,
So like they wanted me to say, like a certain
line like you know this is Chinese kidding.

Speaker 4 (24:19):
Your son felt like you weren't delivered.

Speaker 1 (24:20):
He was, Yeah, he was directed.

Speaker 2 (24:21):
He told me like, no, you got to say more comms.
Nobody told him to say that and that he just
literally blurted out everybody.

Speaker 1 (24:28):
And that helped you. No, it did, okay him everywhere. Now,
what about some love songs? Do you have any love
songs in you to write?

Speaker 2 (24:38):
Yeah? I mean I might, Now you know.

Speaker 1 (24:40):
That's what I'm talking about. What kind of topics?

Speaker 3 (24:44):
If you could come up with a song name right
now based on how you're feeling about your new situation ship,
what would it be?

Speaker 2 (24:51):
I think the name would be I Appreciate you sweet?

Speaker 3 (24:55):
Okay, Okay, I feel like this song kind of jask
me just feel like she got thing going on?

Speaker 2 (25:04):
Yeah, I appreciate you.

Speaker 4 (25:05):
You see, I ain't say nothing, I'm just.

Speaker 1 (25:09):
Something.

Speaker 2 (25:10):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (25:10):
So her next song on lipsing it already, I feel like.

Speaker 1 (25:13):
This has to happen.

Speaker 2 (25:14):
Yeah, I'm gonna make this now.

Speaker 1 (25:16):
Yeah, I appreciate you.

Speaker 4 (25:17):
And then you talk about the situation I started as
a situation. Ship. You could talk about that in the song.

Speaker 3 (25:21):
Yeah, and what at what point do you say? All
write what's going on? And is he seeing? Did he
tell you he's not seeing anybody else? So did you ask?

Speaker 2 (25:28):
I always ask? And I feel like we kind of
both like the way our schedules are is like I
can tell if he's not talking to me, he's working,
so and if I'm not talking to him, I'm working.
We kind of respect that. So it's like, you know,
my friends will ask the same questions, and I'm like,
I really don't see it, Like I don't see that
because if he's not working, then he's talking to me

(25:49):
or we're together, you know, So I don't really get that.

Speaker 4 (25:52):
Okay, And so this is a long distance thing kind
of no.

Speaker 2 (25:56):
Yeah, kind of.

Speaker 1 (25:57):
I mean he met her, he had to fly down
to Miami.

Speaker 3 (25:59):
We peap the city and we're trying to overhere and
trying to do some investigation, but because do you have
a talk like that? Are you at some point? Look,
I have a homegirl. She's been dating this guy for
six months now and they still.

Speaker 2 (26:14):
Have not like solidified it.

Speaker 3 (26:16):
Yeah, and I'm like, are you asking him like is
he gonna or do you just assume this? But then
you don't want to assume anything ever? Or do you,
like when do you have that conversation?

Speaker 2 (26:27):
I feel like once you start to really feel like
you're giving it, like you're all and you're like literally
cutting everybody off and like you're feeling this type of way,
I feel like it's the time to let someone know, like, hey,
I feel this way about you and I don't really
want to see nobody else, so like what exactly are
we doing? But some guys, really they just won't give
you a real answer because they don't want you to

(26:47):
have nobody else, but they're also not ready.

Speaker 3 (26:49):
You got to do it while you're making love and
look him in the eyes while you say everything anything, anything,
pull out even you gotta say it right then.

Speaker 4 (27:11):
Get high.

Speaker 2 (27:11):
Oh my god, Okay, I'm done.

Speaker 3 (27:16):
Okay, Well listen, are you gonna go on tour or anything,
like what's the plan?

Speaker 1 (27:19):
Tell us?

Speaker 3 (27:20):
I know that you have singles and I know it's
you know boy ain't mine? Boy boy, oh boy, and
we love both of those and we've heard the unreleased
How much unreleased music do you have?

Speaker 2 (27:31):
Gosh? Like it's literally like scrolls, scrolls, scroll scrolls. So
I got tons of music and I do want to
put out a project, yet I just haven't like put
it together.

Speaker 1 (27:40):
So who do you look to when it's time to
put it together?

Speaker 3 (27:43):
Like who's the team that's like, all right, we gotta
this song is a hit, Like how do you determine?

Speaker 2 (27:48):
I definitely have my team, so you know, I have
my managers, and I do ask a lot of advice
from like my dad and my friends too, because I
want like an outside. I don't want people that's just
sitting there like you're not gonna say yes, yes, yes,
yes yes. You know your friends will tell you like girl, no,
that's not it. So I like to ask different people.
I don't want to just ask my team, you know,

(28:09):
I love to put a plan together with them, but
I also like to ask people that really don't have
nothing to do with my music.

Speaker 4 (28:14):
Because sometimes when you're your team is too far in
it to be able.

Speaker 2 (28:18):
To see and they won't really know. So yeah, that's
how I kind of picked my records.

Speaker 1 (28:22):
Yeah, SMD is a vibe. Yeah, you know, so I.

Speaker 2 (28:26):
Am ready to put out another project. I just haven't
really got to it yet.

Speaker 1 (28:30):
I wonder what that's going to be called, because SMD
is a.

Speaker 3 (28:32):
That's very aggressive, very every New York you know, the
most disrespectful thing you could.

Speaker 4 (28:38):
Say, you know, more disrespectful than that.

Speaker 2 (28:41):
I feel like my new project is just it's going
to be a whole different vibe, like just like a
level of music.

Speaker 3 (28:49):
So you could be like, no disrespect but you know
that's what people say when they say the most disrespectful
thing after respectful. It's a polite way you're doing it.
And Chinese Kitty always appreciate you so much. You know,
this is home for you always. You've done lib service
a couple of times now, you've done way up with Angela.

Speaker 1 (29:08):
Yee Angela, ye day.

I feel like I'm just at home, like talking to
my friends.

Speaker 1 (29:31):
Well good.

Speaker 3 (29:31):
I'm glad because sometimes her interviews I'd be like, you know,
people be asking crazy stuff and you like, al right,
it ain't. We got to make sure we always talk
about the music and the business too. And I know
relationship talk is fun, but never should be uncomfortable.

Speaker 2 (29:44):
Yeah, she's makes me a little high, you know, but
what means she got a new thing, I know.

Speaker 3 (29:49):
I mean, that's fine. She's just blessing and that's cute.

Speaker 4 (29:52):
She's tingling.

Speaker 3 (29:53):
