That is actually the title track for the album. People
say things to you on social media that they would
never say in real life, and you're like, where are
these people? And so you're right, like that, love in
real life is so much more important than anything.
Speaker 5 (07:13):
Those people who are saying things about you on the internet,
they're not even real.

title comes from.

life and I was like afraid of people, and then
I went out to a concert and I got so
much love from people I didn't even know.

They were like, I love you.
Speaker 5 (07:38):
We were hugging and crying, and it was so many
black people too.
Speaker 10 (07:42):

you know what, you can't get this on the internet.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
Yeah, you gotta go outside.
Speaker 5 (07:50):
You have to find it in real life. And that's
the only kind of love I want. The Internet love

you're not even thinking about it. It's like getting over
a breakup, and those are always good because we always
need those.
Speaker 10 (09:10):
Still bad is a breakup song with the world. I
wrote a breakup song.
Speaker 5 (09:14):
It was a country song, and it was like I
don't need them, I need rank, you know. And I
was like, okay, I needed that to find the emotion
from it. And then it was just I don't need him,
but like I needed to break up with the world.
Then I needed to like get my get back, and
I wanted them to see me out at the club
and be like, damn, I.
Speaker 10 (09:34):

song is about.

Speaker 5 (09:53):

Speaker 1 (09:59):

Speaker 10 (10:03):
That's where we're at right now, flirting. We're flirting with us.
Send the cash app period.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
Lizzo's here. We have more with Lizza when we come back.
Speaker 4 (10:11):
It's way up, way up with Angela.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Ye more, now what's up? His way up with Angela?
He I'm here.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
I keen WIT's comedian extraordinaire is here and he's fanning
out because Lizzo is with us.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
I just want to say, you're looking good as hell,
just to quote ya.
Speaker 5 (10:28):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
I you know I've been glowing.
Speaker 5 (10:31):
I've been glowing, but I think I just intentionally was like,
you know what, it's time to release some weight.
Speaker 10 (10:37):
And I did, and I'm doing it.
Speaker 5 (10:39):
I really threw myself into myself in the past like
two years, Like I just have routines now and I
can't deviate from him, like meditation and the way that
I eat and the way that I the vitamins and
supplements that I take and my hair routine and everything
is just like, yeah, the verdal Moon.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
I've always felt like Lizzo's beautiful and amazing.
Speaker 5 (10:59):
Yeah, you know, I just think people don't have boundaries
with fat people. I don't think we were taught that
as kids to have back. It's the one bullied thing
that is like acceptable. It's like we watch cartoons and
movies and it's like resputia and clumpsons.
Speaker 4 (11:16):
Like it's like, okay to do that.
Speaker 5 (11:18):
But if it was any other thing, any other kind
of person, it'd be like.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
Oh, that's mean, you can't do that, you know what
I mean.
Speaker 5 (11:24):
So I think like, even like the way we were
all conditioned, it just makes like us the butt of
the joke all the time. So I think that's why
the public feels so entitled to big people's business and
they and they feel so entitled to comment on all
the time. But I have a different perspective on it
because I'm like, bring it on, because I got an.
Speaker 4 (11:42):
Answer for you.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
Every time.
Speaker 5 (11:44):
It's always it's more women than men, because I don't
see the same people in the comments of fat men
as I see in fat women. Right because women are objectified,
and there's this like perception of like, if you're big,
you've let yourself go.
Speaker 10 (11:59):
Or you don't like you, or you're not beautiful or
not healthy.
Speaker 5 (12:02):
I can't believe how many people think that just because
you're fat, you're not pretty like ugly where you're.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
Like, look at my DMS.
Speaker 5 (12:09):
Hello and hello and kill at my at my heaviest
weight your face.
Speaker 10 (12:19):
Don't get it twisted.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
Right now with I kem Woods, he had to sit
in because Lizzo's here in the building with us. Last
thing I want to ask you, what did you think
you learned about yourself taking those two years just.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
Dealing with Lizzo?
Speaker 3 (12:31):
The special era is over, like you said, you're sharing
a new era? Bit, So what did you learn about yourself?
Speaker 10 (12:37):
Who I am?
Speaker 5 (12:39):
If I could sum that up into one phrase, I
learned that I am enough. Once I was alone and
I really had time to like discover what I like
and what I don't like.
Speaker 10 (12:49):
And once I.
Speaker 5 (12:49):
Learned who Melissa is, who Lizzo is, I was like,
she's enough.
Speaker 10 (12:55):
That's amazing. You don't got a roll with a million friends.
Speaker 5 (12:58):
You don't have to have videos and go viral all
the time on the internet to feel any type of
self worth.
Speaker 10 (13:05):
You don't even need to be putting out music. You
don't even need a number one or a Grammy to
feel good enough.
Speaker 5 (13:11):
And that made me like, lock the in with me
and make sure that like this is who I'm going
to be for the rest of my life because I
like her and I want to make sure she's safe
and protected.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
I love that. That's the quote for the interview. Thank
you so much, Leszo. It's always a pleasure to talk
to you, and I hope we get some plass music.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
You know what, how do you know about that? I
told you about that? I told you about that.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
No, I read about it that you and said that
had a group with a third person that we had.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
We don't know, yes, well not because I don't. I
just don't love.
Speaker 10 (13:44):
I don't like telling people's business. I don't know.
Speaker 3 (13:46):
I mean that might put some pressure on it might
be fire, I think, all right.
Speaker 5 (13:55):
No, thank you, Liza.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Well that was Lizzo.
Speaker 3 (14:04):
Thank you for joining us, and make sure you go
flash back and check out that full interview on the
YouTube Way Up with Ye And when we come back,
we got the Way Up mixed at the top of
the hour plus, we got my guy, one of my favorites, Country.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
Wayne, is going to be joining us. It's way up alight.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
Everybody since whether it's relationship or career advice, Angela's dropping facts.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
As what's up? Its way up with Angela Yee.
Speaker 3 (14:27):
I'm here with my special guest co host for the
day of Adela ortiz Hey and today we have a
Nova on the line for ask ye what's up?
Speaker 1 (14:34):
Nova.
Speaker 9 (14:35):
I'm kind of going through the situation right now. I
am a manager at a restaurant and I have hired
my friend. She's been kind of just slacking awful lot lately,
and I'm not sure how to tell her that I
have to let her go on.
Speaker 3 (14:49):
Well, she knows she's slacking off, and I also think
it's unfair of her to take advantage of the fact
that you're like her boss.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
So she probably is acting like she could do what
she wants.
Speaker 9 (14:58):
That's what I was thinking, and I've given her a
few chances. I feel like I've talked to her on
the side kind of like come on time, you know,
what are you doing?
Speaker 7 (15:05):
But it's just not hitting you feel like she don't
take it serious because it's you right, Like yeah, friends.
Speaker 3 (15:11):
I think it has to be Well, Look, you gave
her her warnings and she didn't heed them, and this
is the real world, and unfortunately you can't risk what
you have going on because she wants to slack off.
What if you get fired because of her and your
poor management.
Speaker 9 (15:27):
That's what I'm saying. And I brought her in, so
it's making me look bad.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
Ye right, friendship and business.
Speaker 3 (15:34):
You have to learn how to separate those things and
hopefully you guys can still be friends.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
If not, that's on her, not on you. But you
should let her know.
Speaker 3 (15:42):
Look, I know that we're friends, and I never want
anything to affect our friendship, but unfortunately, you know this
job isn't working out, and explain to her why and
be like, you know, unfortunately, I'm in the position where,
even though we're friends, I have to do what I
have to do for the business, and I have a
responsibility to do that, right. I especially feel like when
(16:02):
a friend hires you, you owe them, right, you.
Speaker 4 (16:05):
Got to do better. You got to do even a
better job.
Speaker 7 (16:07):
Do y'all hang out a lot outside of work.
Speaker 9 (16:10):
Yeah, that's my girl, that's my homegirl from like we
grew up together.
Speaker 7 (16:13):
If you fire her and y'all go out.
Speaker 4 (16:14):
You're gonna have to pay the bill.
Speaker 3 (16:15):
You know what, to take her to dinner. Let's pretend
that Raddella is your friend. How would you fire her?

That is actually the title track for the album. People
say things to you on social media that they would
never say in real life, and you're like, where are
these people? And so you're right, like that, love in
real life is so much more important than anything.
Speaker 5 (07:13):
Those people who are saying things about you on the internet,
they're not even real.
Speaker 10 (07:17):

title comes from.

life and I was like afraid of people, and then
I went out to a concert and I got so
much love from people I didn't even know.

Speaker 1 (07:49):
Yeah, you gotta go outside.
Speaker 5 (07:50):

Ye more, now what's up? His way up with Angela?
He I'm here.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
I keen WIT's comedian extraordinaire is here and he's fanning
out because Lizzo is with us.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
I just want to say, you're looking good as hell,
just to quote ya.
Speaker 5 (10:28):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
I you know I've been glowing.
Speaker 5 (10:31):
I've been glowing, but I think I just intentionally was like,
you know what, it's time to release some weight.
Speaker 10 (10:37):
And I did, and I'm doing it.
Speaker 5 (10:39):
I really threw myself into myself in the past like
two years, Like I just have routines now and I
can't deviate from him, like meditation and the way that
I eat and the way that I the vitamins and
supplements that I take and my hair routine and everything
is just like, yeah, the verdal Moon.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
I've always felt like Lizzo's beautiful and amazing.
Speaker 5 (10:59):
Yeah, you know, I just think people don't have boundaries
with fat people. I don't think we were taught that
as kids to have back. It's the one bullied thing
that is like acceptable. It's like we watch cartoons and
movies and it's like resputia and clumpsons.
Speaker 4 (11:16):
Like it's like, okay to do that.
Speaker 5 (11:18):
But if it was any other thing, any other kind
of person, it'd be like.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
Oh, that's mean, you can't do that, you know what
I mean.
Speaker 5 (11:24):
So I think like, even like the way we were
all conditioned, it just makes like us the butt of
the joke all the time. So I think that's why
the public feels so entitled to big people's business and
they and they feel so entitled to comment on all
the time. But I have a different perspective on it
because I'm like, bring it on, because I got an.
Speaker 4 (11:42):
Answer for you.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
Every time.
Speaker 5 (11:44):
It's always it's more women than men, because I don't
see the same people in the comments of fat men
as I see in fat women. Right because women are objectified,
and there's this like perception of like, if you're big,
you've let yourself go.
Speaker 10 (11:59):
Or you don't like you, or you're not beautiful or
not healthy.
Speaker 5 (12:02):
I can't believe how many people think that just because
you're fat, you're not pretty like ugly where you're.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
Like, look at my DMS.
Speaker 5 (12:09):
Hello and hello and kill at my at my heaviest
weight your face.
Speaker 10 (12:19):
Don't get it twisted.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
Right now with I kem Woods, he had to sit
in because Lizzo's here in the building with us. Last
thing I want to ask you, what did you think
you learned about yourself taking those two years just.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
Dealing with Lizzo?
Speaker 3 (12:31):
The special era is over, like you said, you're sharing
a new era? Bit, So what did you learn about yourself?
Speaker 10 (12:37):
Who I am?
Speaker 5 (12:39):
If I could sum that up into one phrase, I
learned that I am enough. Once I was alone and
I really had time to like discover what I like
and what I don't like.
Speaker 10 (12:49):
And once I.
Speaker 5 (12:49):
Learned who Melissa is, who Lizzo is, I was like,
she's enough.
Speaker 10 (12:55):
That's amazing. You don't got a roll with a million friends.
Speaker 5 (12:58):
You don't have to have videos and go viral all
the time on the internet to feel any type of
self worth.
Speaker 10 (13:05):
You don't even need to be putting out music. You
don't even need a number one or a Grammy to
feel good enough.
Speaker 5 (13:11):
And that made me like, lock the in with me
and make sure that like this is who I'm going
to be for the rest of my life because I
like her and I want to make sure she's safe
and protected.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
I love that. That's the quote for the interview. Thank
you so much, Leszo. It's always a pleasure to talk
to you, and I hope we get some plass music.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
You know what, how do you know about that? I
told you about that? I told you about that.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
No, I read about it that you and said that
had a group with a third person that we had.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
We don't know, yes, well not because I don't. I
just don't love.
Speaker 10 (13:44):
I don't like telling people's business. I don't know.
Speaker 3 (13:46):
I mean that might put some pressure on it might
be fire, I think, all right.
Speaker 5 (13:55):
No, thank you, Liza.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Well that was Lizzo.
Speaker 3 (14:04):

day of Adela ortiz Hey and today we have a
Nova on the line for ask ye what's up?
Speaker 1 (14:34):
Nova.
Speaker 9 (14:35):
I'm kind of going through the situation right now. I
am a manager at a restaurant and I have hired
my friend. She's been kind of just slacking awful lot lately,
and I'm not sure how to tell her that I
have to let her go on.
Speaker 3 (14:49):
Well, she knows she's slacking off, and I also think
it's unfair of her to take advantage of the fact
that you're like her boss.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
So she probably is acting like she could do what
she wants.
Speaker 9 (14:58):
That's what I was thinking, and I've given her a
few chances. I feel like I've talked to her on
the side kind of like come on time, you know,
what are you doing?
Speaker 7 (15:05):
But it's just not hitting you feel like she don't
take it serious because it's you right, Like yeah, friends.
Speaker 3 (15:11):
I think it has to be Well, Look, you gave
her her warnings and she didn't heed them, and this
is the real world, and unfortunately you can't risk what
you have going on because she wants to slack off.
What if you get fired because of her and your
poor management.
Speaker 9 (15:27):
That's what I'm saying. And I brought her in, so
it's making me look bad.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
Ye right, friendship and business.
Speaker 3 (15:34):
You have to learn how to separate those things and
hopefully you guys can still be friends.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
If not, that's on her, not on you. But you
should let her know.
Speaker 3 (15:42):
Look, I know that we're friends, and I never want
anything to affect our friendship, but unfortunately, you know this
job isn't working out, and explain to her why and
be like, you know, unfortunately, I'm in the position where,
even though we're friends, I have to do what I
have to do for the business, and I have a
responsibility to do that, right. I especially feel like when
(16:02):
a friend hires you, you owe them, right, you.
Speaker 4 (16:05):
Got to do better. You got to do even a
better job.
Speaker 7 (16:07):
Do y'all hang out a lot outside of work.
Speaker 9 (16:10):
Yeah, that's my girl, that's my homegirl from like we
grew up together.
Speaker 7 (16:13):
If you fire her and y'all go out.
Speaker 4 (16:14):
You're gonna have to pay the bill.
Speaker 3 (16:15):
You know what, to take her to dinner. Let's pretend
that Raddella is your friend. How would you fire her?
Speaker 4 (16:22):

you are still coming late, and unfortunately, I'm gonna have
to let you go.
