Speaker 3 (04:35):
Well eight hundred and two ninety two fifty one fifty
is and no judgment zone.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
Anonymous caller, what's your secret?
Speaker 4 (04:40):
I've been married for a year and a half and
I've been with my husband for three and I'm.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Coming up for my five dude. How long you've been
with your side dude?
Speaker 10 (04:48):
Almost four years?
Speaker 1 (04:49):
So you knew him first. Why you didn't marry him?
Speaker 10 (04:52):
Yeah, because I've had the way I got him it
was crazy.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
We we need more details. He came with him with
another person. Okay, I'm involved with.
Speaker 10 (05:03):
And I woke to that person and I end up
being with my husband and I still want to be
with him.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
So why don't you get married to someone else in
the first place? Why not just date?
Speaker 10 (05:13):
Because my husband is like a profector and she's like
love me to death.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
Oh okay, does your side peace love you to death?
Speaker 10 (05:22):
Yeah? He say he do?
Speaker 4 (05:24):
He says he does? Or do you think he does?
Speaker 1 (05:26):
You feel like you believe it? I think he would
you leave your husband for him?
Speaker 10 (05:31):
Yeah? I think I would?
Speaker 4 (05:32):
So why even go through with it? Just go ahead
and leave and go be with the person you want
to be.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
With, because I'm scared it might not work out. Okay.
Speaker 3 (05:39):
So you would rather have a certain stability short thing
than be with somebody who is your true passion, but
you're not sure if.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
It's going to work.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
Yeah, I mean I understand this stability. But what happens
if your husband finds out about your side piece?
Speaker 4 (05:54):
Do you ever plan to break it off?
Speaker 7 (05:57):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (05:57):
I guess eventually, because.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
If he finds out, it might not be a decision
for you.
Speaker 7 (06:02):
I know.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
Do you love your husband? Yeah?
Speaker 11 (06:07):
I do?
Speaker 3 (06:07):
Okay, you just are more in love with the side piece.
Is your side piece content with being a side piece?
Or does he want you to leave your husband?
Speaker 2 (06:17):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (06:18):
You?
Speaker 1 (06:19):
Is he? What anybody else does he date?
Speaker 10 (06:21):
No?
Speaker 4 (06:22):
It sounds like the husband is good for her on
paper and for stability, and the side piece does all
the other things that she needs.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
Is that right, if you could have both of them
and they were okay with it, would you yep?
Speaker 4 (06:37):
I always wish that I could say, there with the man,
so I feel.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
You all right, take care you do.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
That was tell us a secret eight hundred ninety fifty
just in case you couldn't get through. And when we
come back, we have your yet and it looks like
Joe Button has a new job that we got to
talk about. And by the way, this is something that
in documentaries and podcasting is always number one as a category,
so it makes sense. We'll tell you what it is
(07:06):
when we come back. But right now, let's get into
Cardi b with Aha.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
Angela's feeling that yea te come and get the tea.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
What's up? His way up at Angela? Yeah, I'm here
with my girl Koya.
Speaker 4 (07:17):
What's up, y'all?
Speaker 1 (07:18):
And let's get into some of this yete.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
Now, one person in this room is so excited about this,
Dan you are you said you actually, this is the
first time you've.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
Been interested continue tell the story and.
Speaker 3 (07:29):
Joining in only fans. Donna Mills. She's one of the
TV stars from the eighties. You know her as Abby
Cunningham on Naza Landing that's a soap opera, and she's
joining only fans of eighty five years old.
Speaker 5 (07:42):
I said, this was the most curious I've ever been.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
So that's interested. It's curious.
Speaker 4 (07:47):
I'm not subscribing, and I think for market research purposes,
you should sign up and let us know what's going on.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
And I will say this, only fans is always trying
to like change their image. Remember for a period of
time they were going to get rid of any type
of X ray material, but the people got so mad
they mixed that, mixed that idea. Well, apparently she'll be
sharing moments from her daily life behind the scenes, glimpses,
engaging with fans in a more meaningful way, and just
spending quality time with the people who supported her throughout
(08:15):
her career, but also staying true to who she is.
Speaker 4 (08:17):
Boring, But also couldn't she have not done that on
like Patreon. That's why OnlyFans.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
I probably gave her a check press. Oh yeah, true.
You know a lot of people too.
Speaker 3 (08:28):
When you see the success that a lot of people
have had joining only fans in the money that they've made.
I mean, Shannon Elizabeth from American Pie and Scary Movie
launched hers in April and made one point two million
dollars in.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
The first week.
Speaker 4 (08:41):
That's fair.
Speaker 5 (08:42):
That's fair.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
I don't know if she was going to make that
on Patreon at all. All right.
Speaker 3 (08:47):
Now, there's a new Brooklyn film festival that is coming
this year, and that's going to be with Spike Lee
and Clara Woosai, who's one of the owners of the
New York Liberty, Brooklyn Nets, and the Barclays. It's a
two day festival called Playback The Brooklyn Watch Party that
is happening November sixth and November seventh is fall at
Brooklyn Academy of Music.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
I'm excited. I could walk there, yes, right down the street.
All right.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
And speaking of new things, Joe Button is teaming up
with Dick Wolf, the legendary producer behind Law and Order.
He is going to be doing a true crime series.
Here's what he had to say to Forbes.
Speaker 9 (09:20):
I'm starting a true crime journey about true crime podcast
coming him with Dick Wolf, and headline was that kind
of August.
Speaker 5 (09:27):
Tell me a little bit about it. You're hosting the show.
Speaker 9 (09:29):
The show is going to be called Crime in America,
and we're out giving you too much. We're going to
delve into some stories.
Speaker 4 (09:36):
That's dope, super dope. I mean, obviously this is a
different light that we're getting to see Joe in and
so I'm excited to see what this evolved.
Speaker 3 (09:43):
There's a lot of money in true crime. When it
comes to podcasting, that's always like the number one category,
and so all those two crime shows, Law and Orders.
Just think about how long that's lasted. That is definitely
a lane that is never going anywhere. All right, Well,
that is your yet when we come back, we have
under the radar. These are the stories that are not
(10:04):
necessarily in the headlines. They're flying under the radar, but
you definitely need to know about them. And let's talk
about this lab leak. I can't believe that the White
House official page posted this the true origins of COVID
with a picture of Donald Trump. I don't know if
he's looking what he thinks is powerful, But anyway, we'll
talk about it when we come back.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
This is dangerous.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
It's way up this in the news that relates to you.
These stories are flying under the radar.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
What's up his way up with Angela? Yeah, I'm here
with my girl.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
Koya, and we are going under the radar. Now this
story is not necessarily under the radar, but the White
House official page posted some document and it's called lab
Leak the True Origins of COVID, and they're saying that
COVID most likely came from a lab in Wuhan, China,
after a two year investigation, that is their final report,
(10:56):
and they said sixty four billion dollars was lost to
PPP fraud, school closures were impacked by science, and vaccine
mandates lack sufficient evidence. And so they said the truth
and this is the document that they have here. I
don't know what truth, Like, where is this information even
coming from.
Speaker 4 (11:13):
I agree, and honestly, it's very dangerous to put stuff
like this from the official White House account out like
this is crazy.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
So what they're saying in this too is that there
was no evidence that mass protected Americans from COVID. Also,
social distancing recommendation, which shut down schools was arbitrary and
not based on science, and they said lockdowns caused immeasurable harm,
not only to the American economy.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
Donald Trump was in office when all this, by the way,
was starting.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
Yes, so anyway, they also attacked doctor Fauci here as well,
and They said that his senior advisor unlawfully deleted federal
COVID nineteen records and shared non public information.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
Things like that.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
Now, doctor Fauci, in the meantime, was in a three
hour Senate hearing this week and he invoked his constitutional
right to stay silent. He pleaded the fifth and he
did that, by the way, on the direction of his
own attorney.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
Here is what that sounded like.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
Well, nothing says honesty like taking the fifth hun, doc,
Let's try something.
Speaker 5 (12:16):
What day of the week is it today? On the
divisive Council, I respectfully declined to end so based upon
my rights under the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution.
Speaker 3 (12:24):
Let's also not forget that President Biden actually granted him
and others are pre emptive pardon on the last full
day of his presidency because you know why, I think
they knew that Trump was going to come after him.
Speaker 4 (12:36):
Yeah, and there's a lot of mixed emotions surrounding this,
But what do you expect Fauchis to do.
Speaker 3 (12:41):
They're trying to also paint this picture that doctor Fauci
was like in on this, and you know, he got
a lot of criticism, But federal health officials have shown
viruses being examined and experience and experiments were not closely
related to the coronavirus behind the pandemic. So it's a
lot of confusion. And I think people will he headlines
and look online and be like, oh, he don't want
(13:02):
to talk now, then I'm suspicious where the truth is.
I don't know what he could say right now during
this administration that will not pain him in a way
where they're gonna twist things up and make it seem
like for some reason he was a cause. And I
think part of it is Donald Trump still feels a
way about the criticism he got for how he handled
the pandemic when it first started, when he was telling
people to take things that they shouldn't and you know,
(13:24):
making his own statements that we're backed by science. But anyway,
y'all got to read the documents yourself. We do have
The Way up mixed for you at the top of
the hour. Plus don't forget skill. A baby's going to
be joining us today. He's got an album coming out
next month called The Price of Fame. He's got a
new single out today. That single is called show Me Love.
And of course it's a Friday it's a new music Friday.
We're playing new Cardi b Aha at the top of
(13:46):
the hour. Every hour. Its way up.
Speaker 9 (13:48):
It's time to spiel at et.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
All right, way up.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
But Angela, Yee, Me and Koya are in the building
on a Friday, Yes we are, and let's get into
this et.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
Clueless.
Speaker 3 (13:57):
The Sequels Stirring Alicia Silverstone has been ordered as a
limited series by Paramount Plus.
Speaker 4 (14:03):
I am excited for this now. I can't say. There's
a lot of sequels and reboots happening, so it's Hollywood
running out of original ideas.
Speaker 3 (14:10):
I think they're banking on the older generations nostalgia with
the newer generations maybe seeing something for the first time.
Speaker 4 (14:18):
I like that because I'm a person who likes to
be connected to all things nostalgic.
Speaker 3 (14:22):
So I'm here for Yeah that came out in nineteen
ninety five, crazy Kayla, Were you alive? No? No, she
was not a wow she? Oh yeah, you definitely weren't. Well,
there you go. What would you like to see come back?
Speaker 4 (14:37):
Oh, Girlfriends? I would love to see Girlfriends come back.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
That would be amazing. What would you like to see
I used to love this show.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
Out of this world where she could freeze time by
putting her fingers together and do what she That's a
skill I've always wanted.
Speaker 4 (14:52):
Maybe one hour.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
All right, Now, let's talk about other things that just
came out.
Speaker 3 (14:57):
Spider Man Brand New Day made seven twenty two million
dollars from yesterday's preview screenings. The previous preview record was
sixty million by Avengers Endgame.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
That was an April of twenty nineteen.
Speaker 4 (15:10):
Wow, I'm excited to go see that.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Wow. That is insane.
Speaker 3 (15:14):
By the way, now, Disney Plus has canceled Marvel's Wonder
Man after one season. They said that, and by the way,
that got like amazing reviews. People loved it. It was
nominated for an Emmy. So I don't understand why they
would cancel it roughly four months after announcing a season
(15:36):
two renewal.
Speaker 4 (15:37):
I'm not understanding this either. He got a ninety one
percent on Rotten Tomatoes, and you know that is not easy.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
You know they'd be having him run tomatoes for real,
all right.
Speaker 3 (15:47):
And maherschela Ali has confirmed that he is not doing
Marvel's Blade. According to him, he said they just didn't
want to do it. He said, I've been doing this
professionally for pushing thirty years now.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
This is what he told GQ.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
And one thing I've learned is that what is for
you is for you, and what is not is not.
For whatever reason, that project is not for me. If
they wanted to do it, we would have done it,
So I have to move on again. You had me
under contract, they have billions of dollars. If they wanted
to do the movie, we would have done the movie.
So we're not doing it. I appreciate the honesty. I
feel like too often we get these perfectly curated pr responses.
Speaker 4 (16:22):
And he just called the spade a spaded and I
love it.
Speaker 3 (16:26):
Yeah, And you know what's in response to also from
Marvel Studios, Kevin Faigi, how you say his name? He said,
I'm feeling like a gigantic loser and failure that we
didn't get off the ground with Maherschela. That's what he
said during the Happy, Sad, Confused podcast.
Speaker 4 (16:40):
Yeah. See, I'm appreciating these people with their honest responses,
and it's not something that's curated to give us what
we want to hear.
Speaker 3 (16:47):
All right now, Northwest was scheduled to headline a tour
with Molly Santana and I guess now it's not happening.
She posted, I was really excited to go on tour
with Molly Santana. Sadly it isn't happening anymore, but I
have something special for you guys, see you soon.
Speaker 4 (17:04):
I personally think this is the best decision because I
was a little worried for her going on tour. I
just here's my thing. Where do you go after this
at the age of twelve? Like, do we really think
that a twelve year old needs to be on tour
right now? Is she ready?
Speaker 3 (17:18):
Well, the whole entire tour has been canceled, so it
may not have even been her decision. Yeah, all right, well,
why that is your yeete? And speaking of which, we
have new music Friday when we come back. As you know,
there's a lot of amazing new projects is out today,
a lot of new singles.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
We'll tell you about it.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
It's way up, whether it's relationship with career advice, Angela's
dropping facts. You should know if this is a SD
brought to you by top.
Speaker 3 (17:43):
Dog Long what's up his way up at Angela? Yee,
it is me and Koya. Ready they give you some
advais eight hundred two ninety two fifty one fifty. Jay
is on the line and his girl keeps going through
his phone. They cannot seem to communicate.
Speaker 10 (17:58):
I read the van my partners, and basically X was
reaching out to me, and I responded, and you know,
some of the choice of the words wasn't right.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
Can you be more specific, like what you said? What happened?
Speaker 10 (18:12):
She reached out, seeing how I was doing and things
of that nature. You know, I responded back. Of course,
these friends with one of her exites, I don't know
if they communicate because I don't look or try to
find out about it.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
Does she have a reason to not trust you?
Speaker 10 (18:28):
That's the thing. I don't know what reason I gave
her not to trust me. But you can't feel some
type of way about me responding, whether it's a good
morning text from somebody or they say something to you
like good morning, beautiful or whatever. You speak back to me.
That's like opening up access for further conversations.
Speaker 4 (18:47):
Are good morning texts being exchanged?
Speaker 1 (18:50):
Relationship?
Speaker 4 (18:51):
That sounds a little suss.
Speaker 10 (18:53):
I mean, I get that part, but it's like I
was wrong and I took accountability for But when you
tell that you haven't that you was cool with and
that he'll do any and everything for you, or if
you want him to do something with somebody whatever, he'll
do so. But you still atout to put him in
that position that lets me know or it makes me
feel like y'all still have some type of connection.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
Why is she even telling you that?
Speaker 4 (19:17):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (19:17):
Crazy?
Speaker 3 (19:18):
First of all, it feels like y'all don't haven't established
what these boundaries are in how you communicate with other people,
because there's no reason she should expect something from you
that she's not doing herself, and you shouldn't expect something
from her that you're not doing yourself. You guys know
what each other's triggers are. I also don't understand why
she would even tell you something like that unless she's
(19:39):
trying to make you jealous.
Speaker 10 (19:41):
I want to say, if she's trying to make me jealous,
it's one of these situations where one person got caught
with something.
Speaker 4 (19:48):
Well, to Angela's point, it sounds like there needs to
be a more broad conversation that's had right about boundaries
about things that you know are. It's happening on either
end because just because things are happening it sounds like
either of you aren't okay with them, but they're happening
and it's just been happening. There needs to be a
conversation about boundaries and things that do not need to
be happened.
Speaker 10 (20:07):
That's true.
Speaker 3 (20:08):
Yeah, sometimes it feels like the communication is off, and
that's really what can lead to all of these mixed messages.
Someone going through your phone accusations, well you did this,
so what It's like a tip for Ted, like, well
you did this, well you did this. Yeah, And y'all
really need to just come to the table. If this
is somebody who you really see yourself being with and
(20:30):
you want to work on this, well, how do we
move forward? And what are the things that I need
from you? And then what do you need from me?
Speaker 10 (20:38):
Right? I love them, you know, we got our first
daby just coming soon, and we have our Gennifer deal Saturday.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
Also, I'm sure her hormones are all over the place.
It might be things she's not even knowing about what
she's going through emotionally and mentally.
Speaker 10 (20:54):
Yeah, that's true too.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
The best thing you can do is number one, you
don't want her stressed out at a time like this.
She might be stressing herself out too. But just come
to this with understanding with love, because I think it's
also how you approach the situation and how you talk
to someone. You can get that message across in a
loving way.
Speaker 4 (21:13):
I also think you should probably do it before the
gender reveal.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
Yeah, this feels very fixable.
Speaker 3 (21:17):
Let's just talk about what's not Okay, so we know, right,
all right and congratulations, thank you so much.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
Okay, all right, well, good luck. Ask Yee is brought

How are you feeling though? Skiller baby?
Speaker 5 (22:11):
I'm good.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
So let's talk about where you are in your life
right now.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
We're getting ready for the Price of Fame to come out,
So talk to me about how you even said, Okay,
this is what the project is going to be called.
Speaker 5 (22:22):
I came up with that.
Speaker 12 (22:23):
Just think about all the sacrifices that I have to
go through to be successful. And I was just think
about everything I've been through financially, spiritually, emotionally, physically, everything,
and just put into a project.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
You think it's worth it?
Speaker 12 (22:39):
Yeah, only because everything I've been through changed the trajectory
of my family.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
So it's worth now that you're acting.
Speaker 3 (22:46):
I see you took acting classes and a lot of
people will try to just you know, you have a
name for yourself and you can get into some roles.
But you took it seriously enough to say I'm going
to take these classes.
Speaker 5 (22:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 12 (22:57):
Lady had me jump around like a kangaroo or a
time on jumping jacks.
Speaker 5 (23:01):
My teacher wasn't playing like she was.
Speaker 12 (23:03):
Make you get down to do push ups if you
don't do it right, make you perform your lines, WHI
I'm doing jumping jacks, all type of stuff, just getting
into a role. When I first got in class, it
was on Zoom and I was at the jury store
and she was mad at me, and she wasn't going
to take me.
Speaker 1 (23:18):
Cause you're not taking this se you at the jewelry store.
You're supposed to be in class.
Speaker 12 (23:21):
But I ain't really know what it was like all
the class and tilled, so I just was like, I
got on zoom and they like, where are you at?
I actually went to the back of the jury store.
I had to stop what I was doing and everything.
Speaker 5 (23:33):
But it was.
Speaker 12 (23:34):
Fun, like just see him where I started and where
I'm at right now.
Speaker 3 (23:38):
I'm taking the skill of Baby. He's got a new
single out today, Show Me Love. He's got a new
album on the way, The Price of Fame next month.
So you and fifty cent have gone really cool. So
you're doing Power Origins.
Speaker 5 (23:48):
Yeah, I'm in Power Whoo.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
That's a big deal. I'm looking forward to seeing that.
So what's your role on Power Origins?
Speaker 5 (23:56):
I don't want to give it away because I don't
even know if I could do it.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
Okay, all right, I didn't know you.
Speaker 5 (24:00):
Yeah, I can't do that.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
You always got it.
Speaker 3 (24:07):
Yeah, you're also in Diarra from Detroit this season, and
I know that's about to come out, So congratulations on that.
Speaker 12 (24:16):
Thank you. She's such a beautiful person. And that was
like my first major set.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
Were you comfortable when you were like.
Speaker 12 (24:22):
Yeah, I was comfortable, but my first then they jumped
me right in. They had me doing the intimyc scene.
It was crazy, my first.
Speaker 5 (24:30):
Scene on the app.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
We can't wait to see this. We're posting this.
Speaker 3 (24:35):
I think when is it show us that the twenty
ninth I think the new season starts.
Speaker 1 (24:39):
So do you have other role?
Speaker 3 (24:41):
I know you're doing origins, but do you have other
roles lined up?
Speaker 1 (24:43):
Is this something that you're.
Speaker 5 (24:44):
Like, Yeah, I have roles.
Speaker 12 (24:47):
I've been auditioning for some roles we turned down, but
it just doesn't make sense for my career at this point.
But I have other roles that I'm supposed to be
getting into.
Speaker 3 (24:57):
What would be something that doesn't make sense for you
at this point just I'm not mature enough for Okay,
are their roles that you're like, I wouldn't want to
play a police officer doesn't matter, Okay.
Speaker 5 (25:07):
I want to do more romance, funny stuff.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
As a rapper.
Speaker 3 (25:11):
There's this stigma that like, oh, all these rappers slash
actors just trying to step into this and not taking
this craft as seriously as they share. So sometimes people
judge you way more harshly because of that.
Speaker 12 (25:23):
For sure, I don't want anybody to think I'm trying
to be handed anything.
Speaker 5 (25:26):
I'm gonna work from the bottom up. I be thinking
like every.
Speaker 12 (25:29):
Other actor that's on the call sheet, that's my opponent,
Like I'm trying to show you out every time, Like
if you crying, I'm crying harder if you if you're
making somebody laugh, I'm laughing harder. Like that's how I
really feel.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
All right, Skiller Baby is here. He's in his acting bag,
he's got new music on the way. He's overcome a lot,
and we're talking about that. It's way up, way up
with Angela.
Speaker 1 (25:53):
What's up? His way up with Angela? Yee Happy Friday.
Speaker 3 (25:56):
Skill of Baby got a new single out right now,
show Me Love. But he's also got a new album
on the way, The Price of Fame, coming out in August.
I want to say that when I saw what happened
to you? Like, we were honestly up here like this
is wow, this is crazy. But we saw that you
did that prayer and then a few days later there
was an incident where you were shot. But thank god
(26:18):
you're still here with us. But a lot of people
feel like that prayer is kind of something that maybe
did play a part in saving you. Did you think
that too, like because you posted it online and that
came up afterwards.
Speaker 12 (26:30):
I mean, I pray every day. I only put it
online because I feel like God wanted me to do that.
I feel like kids and everybody else needed that voice
to make this a cool thing. The thing I loved
the most about after I got shot was all the
prayers that people sent me, Like I had a DM
full of probably a million dms.
Speaker 3 (26:49):
How do you get rid of like anger over a
situation like that, because that's hard too, Like to move
to a place where you're like, everything I have going
on is too valuable.
Speaker 5 (26:59):
I think my thoughts was like everything I have too valuable.
Speaker 12 (27:03):
The hardest part about going through situations, whatever it is,
getting shot, getting in toold people, anything is walking away,
Like as a man, my pride is everything, So walking
away was actually harder than not walking away, like I
could easily do something to somebody. I'm not a scary person.
It's just like walking away that took everything out.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
I agree with that.
Speaker 5 (27:24):
So it was a.
Speaker 12 (27:25):
Hard choice for me to remove myself from certain situations,
but I felt like it was beneficial for more than
just me.
Speaker 3 (27:31):
Right now, I'm taking the skill of Baby. He's got
a new single out today, Show Me Love. He's got
a new album on the way, The Price of Fame
next month.
Speaker 1 (27:38):
I saw you buy a house for a family. What happened?
Like what was going on in your head? You know
you saw them?
Speaker 3 (27:46):
Like, just explain what was behind all of that, like
the full story.
Speaker 12 (27:51):
We actually do that a lot, though, It's just that
timing got broadcasted because we partner with the mayor. But
I didn't put girls through college there everything. It's what
I like to do with my money. I'll try to
give back. If I make a lot of money, I'll
try to give a little bit or something back to
the community because they helped me come up. So I'd
(28:11):
just rather do that every year, at least two or
three times a year.
Speaker 3 (28:14):
Do you have an organized like nonprofit or how do
you determine that or you just like I don't have time.
You gotta get this together right, because you got to
do that, because then at least, like I, don't make it.
Speaker 5 (28:27):
Like a million dollars all over the years.
Speaker 3 (28:28):
I don't do it for that, I know, but you
don't have to still be like public about it. But
I think also for your own taxes, you might as well,
you know, be able to benefit from that. That's all
I'm saying.
Speaker 5 (28:39):
It would be the smart thing to do, for sure.
Speaker 12 (28:41):
I don't be planning to do it. I'll just be
winging it. I don't be looking for, like anything get
return from it.
Speaker 3 (28:47):
It says the more you save off your taxes, the
more you can give I would always rather get people
my money than give it back to the government, for.
Speaker 12 (28:54):
Sure, And that's the smart way to go about it.
My managers tell me that all the time. I just
haven't invest in my mind in doing that. I really
need to, though, I really do need to do that.
Speaker 4 (29:05):
All right.
Speaker 3 (29:05):
Well, listen, I know you've got a lot going on.
So what's the release date for Price of Fame?
Speaker 5 (29:10):
The Price of Fame comes out August twenty first.
Speaker 3 (29:12):
Well, I'm looking forward to hearing that you know, I've
been a fan of yours since I first heard you
and since we first met, and I'm I just want
to say I'm happy for you with everything that you've
been accomplishing. Thanks, and we're always going to be in
