somebody today today. I do want to shine a light
on Will Packer. Now, as you know, he has already
been added to ownership of the Atlanta Hawks. He's part
of that team as a part of new limited partners
of I mean not sorry, the NFL's Atlanta Falcons. I
said the wrong thing, the NFL's Atlanta Falcons. And then
(01:59):
in addition to that, just as a movie producer and director,
he has grows more than one billion dollars worldwide at
the box office, which is such a big deal.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
And he has a New.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
York Times bestseller that's out right now, who better than
you all write the Art of healthy arrogance? You guys
got to make sure you pick up that book, but
shout out to him for all that he's done and accomplished,
just thinking about he went to fam you, he went
to an HBCU and also just genuinely a nice person.
So will Packard today we shine a light on you.
(02:34):
Now I'll find thou. Who do you want to shine
a light on?
Speaker 5 (02:37):
I want to shine a line up to everybody who
is protecting their energy from emotional vampires and energy vampires.
People that's just been negative for so long. The effect
the energy from you to feel themselves. You could be friends,
it could be family members. But I will let you know,
keep on fighting, keep on protecting your energy.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
Yeah, that's good advice. So everybody out there, we all
got to fight going on. Make sure you protect your energy.
We can't control what other people do, but we can't
control ourselves, right.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
That part, that part.
Speaker 5 (03:06):
Appreciate you and I want you to have a break.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
Dare all right, Thank you you as well. We appreciate
that good word. That was Hina light eight hundred and
two nine two fifty one fifty. If you couldn't get through,
you could leave a message in China light that way.
And when we come back, let's do your y e t
and Redman. People are thinking that Redman has beef of
metha man, there's some issues there. Will tell you what
he had to say, and I'm gonna tell you how
I interpreted it. It's way up, they says, soothing the
(03:30):
rooms from industry shade to all.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Of gossips out send Angela's spelling that.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
Yet it's way up with Angela yee and it's time
to get into your y e t. So first, I'm
breaking news, oh Man. Garsa Bovet has announced that she
is leaving Real Housewives of Beverly Hill. She was on
the show for five years and this is the reason why.
Speaker 6 (03:56):
One of the reasons why I'm leaving is my family,
my boys there. Last year of high school is next year,
and I want to be a part of that. And
Jade is starting a new career and I want to
be a part of that too. And secondly, I have
the most exciting projects that I am developing, producing and acting.
And I can't tell you anything right now, but you'll
(04:17):
know soon.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
Man shout out to her, and Andy Cohen told that
she's welcome back at any time. She was the first
black woman on that particular franchise, and she really made
an impact in a splash and I want to say
she's got her own production company and she did that
Black Girl Missing Show for Lifetime, and so that movie
came out last year. She executive produced it, starting it,
(04:40):
and they're also extending that franchise. They did two new
movies that she was executive producing. So I feel like
the realm of what she's about to be doing is
more producing, more acting. And we know her from back
in nineteen eighty four she made her first TV appearance,
so she's been doing the thing for quite some time.
So the most love and admiration too, Garza Bouvet for
(05:00):
everything that she has going on. That's a nice exit
to leave while you know you're doing well all right now.
Redman recently was on the Julian Dory podcast and he
talked about whether or not he still hangs out with
METHA man, here's what happened.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
You and Meth get to hang out a lot these days.
Still I don know, no, no, no, We do shows
and we come back home. I don't hang out with
a lot of rappers sot.
Speaker 7 (05:21):
Like once we off the road, were like, all right,
you got family to deal with I got I got
to do.
Speaker 8 (05:26):
My circle is very small.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
All right. Well, people were saying, is there some beef?
I don't think so.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
I feel like he's saying they're older, people have their
own families. They not hanging out When they were younger.
It was a lot of hanging out going on. But
I think both Metha Man and Red Man will say
they're not just outside for stuff. Everybody's got work to do,
all right. Michael Rainie Jr. Had some things to say
about Little Meach. The two of them had a back
and forth, and you know, first Michael Raannie Jr. Said
(05:54):
this about whether or not he feels bad for Little Meach.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
I feel bad for Little Meach.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
I don't feel bad for no Gold and its planning.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
Like I'm a growing man.
Speaker 9 (06:02):
Why I gotta feel bad for another growing man?
Speaker 8 (06:04):
Like you were going into it.
Speaker 9 (06:06):
What you ask for my sympathy for.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
You'd be all right.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
It's like these guys that pitted against each other. They
weren't even on the same show. It was just both
on Stars.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
Well.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
Little Meach responded on social media. He said he got
my name in his mouth more than his garden tool.
Because I can't say that word. I think it rhymes
with slave.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
All right.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
Now, Glorilla has reacted after being compared to that viral
woman with the makeup that looked crazy. I don't know
if you all saw that. She's such a pretty girl.
I don't know if that makeup was real. I feel
like this was something to go viral for it. There's
no way anybody would do someone's makeup like that. Well,
Glorilla went on social media and said, I'm looking through
them quotes of that ugly makeup girl and everybody to
(06:47):
say it looked like me. I'm in y'all and we'res
DM right now, so that's it. She wasn't and she
said at the end of the day that makeup was ugly.
I just had blew up and was constantly getting free
f up. She was being told not to post that
is you can tell I hate it on the pictures.
I just used to be scared to tell people they can't.
This is a lot going on. But anyway, that was
before when Glorilla had somebody posted something to her that
(07:09):
went viral with her makeup not looking the way that
she liked it.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
Listen, makeup is a big deal. As a woman.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
I could tell you, if we don't like our makeup,
it can ruin a whole entire situation.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
All right.
Speaker 3 (07:22):
When we come back about last night, that's where we
discussed what we had going on.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Last night.
Speaker 3 (07:26):
I was at the coffee shop and I was doing
some boss talk with some entrepreneurs, some local entrepreneurs, and
I'm going to tell you what they had to say.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
When it comes to hiring and some of those challenges.
It's way helped.
Speaker 4 (07:38):
Oh night, So about last night, Yes, I went down.
Speaker 3 (07:46):
It's way up with Angela Yee and it's time for
about last night. Now, last night, I was actually at
my coffee shop, Coffee uplifts people, and you know, I
actually have used it precruiter to hire some of the
employees that work there. And I was having a conversation
with some other business owners who I know in the
area and talking to them kind of like about what
(08:08):
they've been going through when it comes to hiring, when
it comes to running a business. My guy John Laster,
who's a comedian but he's also a founder of Black
the App. It's a black owned business app, and he
just added retail to that so now you can actually
purchase some of these items like coffee uplifts people they
were about to launch to that part of it.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
But here's what you have to say about some of.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
The challenges that he's discovered while trying to hire for
this tech company.
Speaker 7 (08:34):
Hiring is extremely tricky because I don't know, So you
really have to trust that the people who are working
on your business are doing the right thing or you're
in trouble. And I've been in trouble while I was
sitting in a meeting with the NBA and the app
wasn't working because one of my developers had no idea
what they were doing.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
Can you imagine what us like.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
You're in a high profile meeting like that, and that's
and then what do you even say? And sometimes you
only have one opportunity to present to somebody?
Speaker 2 (09:05):
All right? Now.
Speaker 3 (09:05):
We also had doctor Body who's an orthodontist, but she's
not just an orthodontis with her own practice. She actually
has also founded her own toothbus, the Big Mouth Toothbus.
She was on Shark Tank by the way with that
as well, so we talked about how that helped her business.
She's hired a lot of family but she's also actually
used it recruiter to hire here's what she said.
Speaker 10 (09:24):
When I first.
Speaker 6 (09:25):
Opened my practice, I hired according to the word of mouth.
So this woman I found her sleeping at my front
desk within the first week.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
So we had a whole conversation about why it's important
and how hard it is to actually find the right person,
how it's kind of like dating around. And Tanika, who
owns Dough Girl Cupcakes, she was there as well, and
she hasn't even hired outside people yet. She's only had
family members. Her and her mom really run the business.
But she really wants to be able to hire somebody,
but it has to be the right person because her
(09:56):
business is her baby and you can't just trust.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
That with anyone.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
So we were just talking about hiring and how ZipRecruiter
has zip intro and you can actually post your job
today and then you can talk to interested qualified candidates tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
And I say this to say you should try it
for free.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
If you need to hire people, go to ZipRecruiter dot
com slash way up and that's a way to try
that zip intro for free. That's what we actually used
when we went to hiring, and that way you're only
talking to people who are qualified. You can put down
the things that you're looking for. You know, do they
have to have a food handler's license? How much experience
they have and you're not just sifting through and guessing.
(10:33):
All right, So that was the conversation we had.
Speaker 8 (10:36):
All right.
Speaker 3 (10:36):
Well, later today, Shy and weather Park are going to
be joining us for Family Legacy.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Oh they're coming up next. All right, well let's do that.
Speaker 3 (10:44):
That show is actually now streaming today on Paramount Plus
and on MTV, so you can check them out. But
that is Meta Man's daughter and Odb's son.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
Family Legacy is way up, y'all.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
I'm more way up with angel now.
Speaker 11 (10:57):
Is what it is.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
All right, It's way up with Angela yee. And for
the first time e their weather Park is here. Yes, yes, yes,
welcome to the show. And my girl Shy is back,
who also performed at Angela y day and killed it.
Speaker 12 (11:10):
Yes I did.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
All right, Well, you guys.
Speaker 3 (11:13):
Are going to be on MTV's Family Legacy and this
is going to be amazing because I know it's fascinating
for people to see, like celebrities, what are their kids doing,
especially when their kids are also doing music. Now, Shy,
I know you also Shy away from letting people know
who your father is. It's always like, okay, don't introduce
me as here we go get metha man's daughter. And
(11:34):
I know your mom is very like when you her
to do it on her own, and you have been
doing it on your own, but then doing this is
also like that's part of what the show was about.
So what made you decide to do it?
Speaker 12 (11:44):
I really decided to do it to give people like
a different understanding of how people like us growing up
with parents.
Speaker 3 (11:52):
In the Spotlight and weather Park, for you, and in
the trailer, you know, you say something that I felt
like had a lot of layered meeting. You talk about
being the son of old dirty bastard but he passed
away when you were nine.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
Yes, for you, how did that affect you?
Speaker 3 (12:07):
Because in the trailer, I feel like what you said
was also like I cannot wait to hear how he
expands on that.
Speaker 9 (12:12):
I don't think that I fully was aware of what
was taking place at nine years old. I think it
really started to hit me at like fifteen sixteen, when
I get to see what a father and son bond
actually looks like. So based off those experiences, you know,
I had to do a lot of like working on
my mental health. You know, I feel like everything my father,
all the challenges that he was facing, This is the
epitome of that, you know, having a fatherless child. Not
(12:35):
to use the word bastard, but you know, a bastard child,
you know, being that.
Speaker 8 (12:41):
Yeah, it's a little emotional.
Speaker 9 (12:42):
Sorry, Yeah, it's just yeah, it's just I'm not the
only one that's feeling these feelings. You know, I have
other siblings out there. So yeah, it's not just about me.
It's about the legacy. It's about the story and making
sure that you know, the people understand that my father,
even though he's not here, he split himself up in
multiple pieces so that you can still get to feel,
touch and hear him.
Speaker 3 (13:03):
You know, I definite knew your father because I did
used to work in the office. I always talk about
my relationship with him because he would call the office
all the time, and I was kind of the person
that was you know, I was an assistant to the CEO,
to Riza and Divine, and so I was the one
that was in charge of like the check books and everything,
and he would always be like, YO, write me a check.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
I'm like, I can't just write a check and hand
it to you.
Speaker 3 (13:23):
But you know, he was great because he would call
curse me out, but then he would call back and
apologize like two minutes later. But it was funny, like
he didn't never mean any harm by any of the things.
It was like his personality just to he was very animated,
you know, in the workplace. So I always have like
really good fond memories of both of your parents. For
you Shy working in the office, and your dad. He
(13:44):
was such a big celebrity but so grounded. Right now,
I am talking to Shy who was met the man's daughter,
and weather Park, who was Odb's son as old Dirty Bastard.
Their show Family Legacy is streaming now. I'm Paramount Plus
and on MTV and look Shy. Part of this is
also being in the news because there was a big
story about your father met the man getting into it
with your ex boyfriend from ten years ago in the gym.
(14:06):
Did he call and tell you about it? Did you
read about it like everybody else? Did you saw it
on the blogs? Like what happened?
Speaker 2 (14:11):
Oh?
Speaker 12 (14:11):
I don't know, girl, I was not involved in any
kind of witch away.
Speaker 8 (14:14):
I really don't know.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
We're at the gym too.
Speaker 12 (14:16):
I don't work out yet. I know I should, but yeah,
I just you know, my dad loves me. He's always
gonna protect me no matter what. Don't believe everything you
read in the media. They was eating me up on Twitter.
Speaker 3 (14:27):
They were eating did not respond. So sometimes you want
to be like, hold up, like, actually you don't know me.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
But listen.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
I am so looking forward to seeing this and seeing
all the Let's talk about some of the kids that's
on there. You know Pepa and Tretchipizana and we've seen
her also on Growing Up Hip Hop. Oh, John Rule's
daughter DMX. I saw in the Lady.
Speaker 12 (14:49):
I like to call them angels. We got a lot
of angels this season. We also have Andree Stone and
her son doing their interview together Wow for di'angelo.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
So we can see that on TV Paramount Plus.
Speaker 12 (15:01):
Yes, make sure y'all get your Paramount Plus subscriptions. You
could also watch it on Amazon Prime.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
All right, but thank you both so much. We'll be watching.
Speaker 12 (15:07):
Yes, thank you, Mars five y'all.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
When we come back. We have your yet. And let's
talk about Nelly now.
Speaker 3 (15:13):
He talked about appearing on MTV Cribs, and he said
it was the worst thing that he did.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
All right, we'll discuss. It's way up just like.
Speaker 3 (15:21):
The talk like they Angela Jean like they Angelie Jean.
Speaker 4 (15:24):
Man, she's spilling it all. This is yeaty way up.
Speaker 3 (15:30):
It's way up at Angela yee and it is time
for your yet. So Nelly talked about his episode of
MTV Cribs that was in the early two thousand. I'm
gonna say one of the ones that I remember the
most was when Redman did it. I will never forget
that episode of MTV Cribs because his house was you know,
the screen doors, stuff was broken. It was people laying around.
(15:51):
I thought it was like the realest thing ever. People
thought that it was even fake. But here is what
Nelly had to say about his MTV Cribs episode while
he was talking on the j Cruise Show.
Speaker 13 (16:00):
Jill Nelly, was your MTV Cribs real Hell Yeah, I
sold it.
Speaker 8 (16:04):
I had to get rid of it.
Speaker 13 (16:05):
It was worst thing I did for the house being
on MTV Cribs because people, Yeah, when I did it,
there was no gate on the house and people were
pulling their boats up to the dock. My mom is
out by the pool, macole a boat up on the dock,
walk up the dock.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
All right, I can see that being an issue and
people not thinking about that. MTV Cribs used to be
such a big deal. If y'all remember when that show
was out. Is there anything equipped I remember? Lifestyles of
the Rich and Famous. That was the show too. All right, now,
let's talk about Ben Affleck. He is on the cover
of GQ and he's answering all these questions because you
(16:42):
know, normally he does not do that. So they talked about
the FBI visiting his house, and that was in the tabloid.
You know, he don't like all of that, and he
said the FBI did in fact visit his house, but
he said that he said that he was trying to
figure out what was going on. He called like, hey,
the FBI, where you're at my house? Do you want
to talk to me? So what happened was there was
a break in of a federal officials home in that area.
(17:04):
So the FBI went around and whoever lived there, they
rang their bell. So it was something he didn't even
know about. And he said they didn't even know it
was his house when they came there and rang the Bell,
and then they also talked about his relationship and his
divorce from Jennifer Lopez and her documentary that she put out,
The Greatest Love Story Never Told. The entire premise of
the film is She's like, we're private people, but we
(17:25):
have public dimensions as artists. And he talked about his
temperament is to be a little bit more reserved and
private than hers. As happens in relationships, you don't always
have the same attitude towards these things. And so I thought, oh,
this is interesting, because how do you reconcile that? And
he said, you don't marry a ship captain and then say, well,
I don't like going out in the water. And he
(17:46):
said that in the documentary, and that's the part that
they use. So he said, you've got to own what
you knew going into any relationship. And I think it's
important to say that wasn't the cause of some major facture.
It's not like you can watch that documentary and go, oh,
now I understand and the issues that these two had.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
He's right about that, though.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
You can't say I'm marrying a ship captain and then
say I don't want to be out on the water
and also shout out to NB a young boy. He
got released from prison earlier than expected. He spent almost
a year behind bars, so welcome home to him. All right, Well,
we do have an announcement when we come back, and
this is for you guys up here and for our
(18:23):
Way Up gang family. Will tell you what's going on
and the reason that we can all pet ourselves on
the back. Right now, here's Wile and Jeremiah on Chill
is Way up.
Speaker 4 (18:31):
And iMOS the famous women in radio opening, and we're
talking about angela Ye.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
You're way up with angela Ye. Please believe that.
Speaker 3 (18:41):
Oh my goodness, it's way up with angela yee. And
I do have an announcement to make uh Dan my
producers here, who by the way, is getting married, So
he's going to be gone for a while.
Speaker 8 (18:54):
A while, that's a fact. I'll be back though.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
Navy is here running the boards mic in front of him.
Thank god, No, I'm kidding, I'm kidding. You always see
his face and his reaction. Sidney is here with us.
JP is out here cutting clips and getting video up.
But here is the big announcement. Way up with angela
(19:18):
Ye has won Gracie Award such a big deal show.
Shout out to the Alliance for Women in Media Foundation,
and it's also the fiftieth annual Gracie Award, so it's
quite an amazing year. And what this does is it
champions women's voices, stories and achievements in many forms of media,
from screens and podcasts to radio and creative accomplishments behind
(19:40):
the camera. Amazing room to be in when they do
the gracies. I'm out in La so I already bought
my flight because they definitely told us ahead of time,
so I was like, let me go get my flight
right now.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
But I'm excited for that, So thank you to everybody.
Speaker 3 (19:54):
But the reason why we did win this Gracie is
because of the people who listen to the show. That
is the most important thing, and so we definitely don't
take that for granted. Nothing means more to me than
when I'm out and about and I'm going places and
people come up to me and they know different segments
on the show. Literally, I've had people tell me as
they're driving my uber that they want.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
To tell me a secret so they can go viral,
and no, they want to just tell me.
Speaker 3 (20:16):
And I've heard some of the most shocking secrets from
people who I can see, so they're not anonymous. But
I appreciate y'all anybody who does ask yee when they
roll up on me and ask a question, even people,
and this means I think the most when people tell
me they listen to Wealth Wednesdays and they've learned a
lot from that of they joined the Wealth Wednesday real
Estate Club, just because the whole point and way up
(20:38):
with Angela Yee is that we are on the way up.
And as I told Mano yesterday, you know when they
go low, we go way up with Angela Gyee. So again,
we thank you to the Alliance for Women in Media
Foundation and the great work that they do for the
past fifty years of honoring people who are storytellers. Everybody
else who want to Gracie, we want to congratulate you too.
(21:00):
Hopefully I get to see a lot of you in person,

be an amazing exclusive.
Speaker 2 (21:35):
Y'all know. I love me some in Vogue. I love
Don Robinson.
Speaker 3 (21:37):
I love Lucy Pearl And recently she went viral because
she was living in her car and people had a
lot to say about that. So we're gonna hear what
actually happened after that and what she, you know, really
has going on. And we got the Way Up mixed
at the top of the hour. Let's go just like
the chout.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
Like they and Jelie Jean, like they and Jelie Jean.
Speaker 4 (21:55):
Man, she's spilling it all. This is yeaky, way up.
Speaker 3 (22:01):
It's way up at Angela. Yee, I am here today
to do your eye tee. And I got so excited
when I was scrolling through Instagram and saw the upcoming
movie Final Destination Bloodlines has a trailer out. It's coming
out on May sixteenth, and it shows ordinary things that
turn deadly. You know what final Destinations about. You're never
(22:22):
going to look the same at going to have a
drink at a local bar. Anyway, here is what that
trailer sounds like.
Speaker 4 (22:28):
I always knew this day would come.
Speaker 8 (22:30):
Death is coming for our family.
Speaker 2 (22:33):
Gredma, what's happening to us?
Speaker 8 (22:34):
Years ago?
Speaker 10 (22:35):
I had a premonition that started.
Speaker 2 (22:37):
At all I saw what death was about to do.
But Death doesn't like it when you mess with his plans.
Speaker 3 (22:44):
Ooo, Baby, I'm excited. What do you think, Dan, I'm.
Speaker 8 (22:48):
Excited to this day.
Speaker 11 (22:49):
I do not like driving behind like eighteen wheelers that
have like the logs in them from one of the
first destinations.
Speaker 3 (22:54):
And have Yeah, have you ever been about to get
on a flight and then all of a sudden Final
Destinations on and you'll like, dang all right? And Lizzo
is going to be playing a sister Rosetta Tharp and
an upcoming bio pick and that's gonna be on Amazon
MGM Studios.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
It's called Rosetta.
Speaker 3 (23:10):
She died at fifty eight years old, inn Arkansas native
who influenced artists like Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, and Little Richard.
She's considered one of the greatest guitarists of all time.
So Lizo posted black people made rock and Roll. Yeah,
I'm out here reclaiming rock and roll for us. Beautiful
thing to see.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
All right. And under Armour it's back in the NFL
in Rina.
Speaker 3 (23:29):
The NFL has rekindled their relationship with under Armour that
is now the official partner for footwear and gloves. They
previously were the official supplier from two thousand and six
to twenty twenty, but now they are back. They used
to have to cover up the logos after all of that,
but it's a long term partnership that's going to make
that brand back again.
Speaker 2 (23:48):
Under Armour.
Speaker 3 (23:49):
I remember I invested in under Armour and then things
crashed with it.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
You gotta tell your Mike on do.
Speaker 8 (23:55):
You still have a stock?
Speaker 2 (23:56):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (23:57):
Okay, so hope, let's see what happens I mean down
far all right. And speaking of money, DDG recently was
streaming and he had some things to say about how
much money it would take for you to sustain a
lifetime or how much money it wouldn't take. Here's what
he said.
Speaker 8 (24:14):
Ten ms for the rest of your entire life is
not enough money.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
Let's debate, please, I would love to get canceled about this.
I stand on it. You don't have nothing to do
with me being a rapper, don't have nothing to do
with me.
Speaker 8 (24:26):
Won't nice?
Speaker 1 (24:28):
It will have nothing to do with none of that.
Speaker 3 (24:30):
Oh and you know wealth Wednesdays tomorrow. What do you
think about that statement? Ten ms for the rest of
your life.
Speaker 8 (24:35):
I think I could make that work.
Speaker 3 (24:37):
I think if I invested in some real estate and
had different, multiple multi unit properties, and then that money
was invested right in stocks and different things, and you know,
there's for sure where you can make that money grow. Now,
if you just had ten million dollars never bought, but
nothing never invested, I could see, because inflation keeps on
going up. A million dollars is not the same as
(24:58):
what it was when we were kids.
Speaker 8 (25:00):
I think it's enough even if you were to have
no investments, if you were to live like a super
humble lifestyle.
Speaker 3 (25:04):
It depends where you live, yeah, because some cities are
quite affordable and some cost you way more to live in.
But yes, yeah, so I think it depends now if
you want to live like I'm sure DDG lives or
if you want to have a luxury lifestyle, it's definitely
not going to last.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
But like you said, you think you could do that, not.
Speaker 3 (25:23):
Buy anything, pay rent, pay for food for a lifetime.
Speaker 8 (25:27):
I mean, I get bored, but yes.
Speaker 2 (25:28):
Inflation is crazy, though I'm.
Speaker 8 (25:30):
Not survivor's mentality.
Speaker 3 (25:31):
Yes, absolutely, like I just even, Yeah, New York is expensive.
Speaker 2 (25:35):
I'm not going to Laea.
Speaker 8 (25:36):
New York City's out of the earth quake.
Speaker 2 (25:38):
Live here.
Speaker 8 (25:39):
You can move upstate New York. Property is really cheap
up there.
Speaker 3 (25:42):
Yeah, yeah, if you're renting, because I think property tax
gets crazy too, and the more property that you have,
it just depends, it depends.
Speaker 8 (25:50):
Yeah, people buy tons of acres up there because it's
so cheap.
Speaker 3 (25:52):
You could also buy a multi unit home, live there
and rent out to other units and that'll.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
Pay all of your bills.
Speaker 8 (25:57):
That's also true.
Speaker 3 (25:58):
All right, Well, anyway, that is your I didn't want
to debate him like that, but I couldn't help it.
You know, I love having these types of conversations, you know,
along those lines. I'm gonna be in Memphis tomorrow talking
about development, talking about real estate, So make sure y'all
come and check me out there, and we do have
ask Ye coming up. Eight hundred and two ninety two
fifty one fifty.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
Called this up. Any question you have, We're here to
help its way.
Speaker 4 (26:19):
Up, whether it's relationship, for career advice. Angela's dropping facts,
so you should know. This is ask gee what's up?
Speaker 2 (26:26):
His way up?
Speaker 3 (26:26):
With Angela Yee. I'm Angela Yee and it's time for
asking yee. This is where you guys call in and
I give you some advice. And today we have a
caller from our voicemail.
Speaker 2 (26:34):
Listen to this.
Speaker 14 (26:36):
I have been dating this guy for two years and
next month will be our anniversary. About two weeks ago,
I found out that he was cheating on me. He
pocketed oled me while he was with someone else, and
I heard the actual act on my voicemail. I have
ended the relationship, but I'm still so madly in love
(26:56):
with this man and it's tearing me apart, and I
just don't know what to do. Can you help me please?
Speaker 2 (27:03):
I have to be honest. The very same thing happened
to me.
Speaker 3 (27:05):
I didn't hear them having sex, but my ex boyfriend
pocket dilled me and I heard him with another woman. Talking,
having a whole conversation. I was actually in the car
with one of my friends, so we both heard it
because it was on the bluetooth and the speaker in
the car. And I did hang up and call him back,
and he denied it and then pretended he was at
his friend's house. But anyway, the story ends like this, Okay,
(27:28):
I did give him another chance after that, even though
I knew that he was lying and cheating, and guess what,
he did it again and again and again. And so
the question is, you know, being madly in love with
somebody and knowing that you've heard that. I don't know
how you're going to get over that, because when you're
madly in love with somebody and they do something like that,
it is so hard to fathom why. And I'm not
(27:50):
saying that people can't change. They can, but they have
a lot to prove.
Speaker 1 (27:54):
Now.
Speaker 3 (27:54):
I think ripping that band aid off and actually breaking
up with somebody is a great first step. But you
have to be patient with yourself and know that of
course you still love this person. Of course you're upset,
of course you're hurt. Of course you want him back.
Those are all normal things. You can't turn your feelings off,
but you also have to know every day is going
to get better. I just want to say to you
(28:15):
that unless he shows some tremendous effort and trying to
repair things and show you how he can fix and
change things, which I think shouldn't be anything, that he
should easily be able to come to you and say,
you know, you have to stay away from him, because
otherwise he'll think that he can just keep on.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
Doing what he's doing.
Speaker 3 (28:31):
Because you're not going to leave him anyway, I would say,
you need to keep yourself occupied. I gave myself a
rule when I was with my friends. I was like,
do not let me continue to talk about him all
the time. Let's talk about other things. That was the
only way that I was going to be able to
move on and get over it. And it did help
me tremendously. So I am wishing you all the best,
(28:51):
and every day is going to be hard, and that's fine,
And who knows what the future of my whole because
one thing I also learned is that later on down
the line, when you find the right person, none of
that from the past matters anymore. So the only way
you'll find the right person is to cut all that
negativity and block out all of the things that you
don't need. And he sounds like something you don't need
(29:12):
in your life, all right, that is your answer for
ask ye. Eight hundred and two nine fifty one fifty
is a number in case you couldn't get through. And
when we come back, Don Robinson is going to be
joining us. You know her as a member of the
group in Vogue, which I love, also a member of
Lucy Pearl, but also most recently going viral for talking
about car life and living in her car.
Speaker 2 (29:33):
You guys will love this conversation. It's way up.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
She turn me up here, we go up there. This
is way up with Angela.
Speaker 8 (29:41):
Ye.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
What's up? Is way up with Angela? Yee.
Speaker 3 (29:44):
And first of all, you guys know, I've always said
how much of a fan I am of this woman
right here, and she recently went viral, but I've been
talking about what a fan I am even before that.
Speaker 2 (29:54):
Don Robinson is joining us via zoom. What's up? Don Robinson?
Speaker 5 (29:59):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (30:00):
Good?
Speaker 10 (30:00):
How are you? Angela?
Speaker 2 (30:01):
I'm doing well and you look amazing. Thank you.
Speaker 3 (30:05):
I think it's important for people to put the whole
thing in context, because you describe a series of circumstances
that happen with your previous co manager and how that
kind of led up to you, like staying in a
hotel then not getting a place. But people do have
to I think watch the whole thing because they were
clips that were posted, so it made it seem like,
how did this happen? She just all of a sudden, is,
(30:26):
you know, homeless living in her car? But it was
actually something that one day you were like, you know what,
I'm going to try this.
Speaker 2 (30:32):
I want to do this car life thing.
Speaker 10 (30:34):
It's almost like people think that I was just like
thrown into carl Iff and I had no, she's just homeless.
It's not that at all. I made a choice, Like
I said, I could have stayed at the hotels, or
it could have worked it out even with my manager
to stay with him, Like how can we make room
in your apartment? He has a one bedroom, one bathroom.
It's like they saw what they wanted to see. They
didn't see what I said. My car is right now temporarily,
(30:57):
my room, my home, but I'm building my life from here.
It's like that, and somebody said, somebody said, oh no,
she's not homeless, look at her nails. She got to know.
So it's called polish.
Speaker 2 (31:08):
And somebody else said she has an assistant.
Speaker 3 (31:13):
That weighing in and saying, you know, this is her twice,
this is what she wants to do.
Speaker 2 (31:17):
She has an assistant. You're not, you know, on house
with an assistant right exactly.
Speaker 10 (31:21):
And I've only met him once in my life, so
I was shocked. He doesn't know my story. So he's
assuming instead of reaching out to me directly and say, hey,
you know, I heard about your situation. What do you need?
Are you okay?
Speaker 2 (31:32):
Or you know what?
Speaker 10 (31:33):
I don't know her story, but she's being very brave,
like be quiet.
Speaker 3 (31:36):
Right now talking to Don Robinson from in Vogue. So
how are things with you and your mom?
Speaker 14 (31:42):
Now?
Speaker 3 (31:42):
I know that you said that previously you were staying
with your mother before you started car life.
Speaker 10 (31:48):
My mom and I like, don't have that relationship that
I really want, like I said, and I said that
stuff not to put my mother on blasts. I've always
admired my mom. Something happened with that relationship and there
was anger. I was like, oh, what is happening. I
almost thought maybe early stages of dementia until I mentioned
something to her She's like, yes, I did. I said that,
and I'd say it again. Okay, so you knew what
(32:09):
you were saying, and she didn't atone for what she said.
Speaker 3 (32:13):
I saw she She commented after all this and said
that she would give you a hug if she saw you,
and that.
Speaker 10 (32:21):
You have to say that to make herself You know
what I mean. There's certain types of narcissism that I've
heard about or learned about in my lifetime. My ex
is one of them. My mother's a certain type, and
so she doesn't want to look like I'm not trying
to make a look bad as a mother. She's been
a amazing mother. But as she's gotten older, something happened
when I lived with her again, and I'm like, this
(32:42):
is not the same woman. So they were so anxious
to get an interview with her, and I was like,
why are these people reaching out so hard on my mom.
I didn't get to her, and she didn't contact me
to say, hey, do on these people want to talk
to me. That's what it used to be back in
the day, right, she just did the interview with them.
This is what I wish would have happened. Would have
been nice if my mom said, you know what, my
daughter and I said some things to my daughter that
(33:04):
were not very nice, and I regret those things, but
we'll do with that with each other. I love her.
She could have just taken accountability. I guess that would
have been great, and didn't do that.
Speaker 3 (33:14):
And you mentioned your ex and I saw he also
said he offered you a job, and like.
Speaker 10 (33:20):
Would you work with your ex? He has to take
my shine because he doesn't have shine of his own,
so he made comments that he shouldn't have made. I
haven't heard from him about a job, and why would
I take a job from an ex?
Speaker 3 (33:29):
Don Robinson if I'm in Vogue and Lucy Pearl is
here with us, and we're talking more about the documentary
she's working on and how she ended up living in
her car voluntarily.
Speaker 2 (33:38):
By the way, it's way up.
Speaker 1 (33:40):
Everybody listen yea.
Speaker 3 (33:42):
Yea, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yee is but y'all being waiting.
Speaker 4 (33:45):
Foh you tapped in a way up with Angela Yee?
Speaker 2 (33:49):
What's up?
Speaker 3 (33:49):
His way up with Angela Yee and Donna Robinson, I
Fro'm in Vogue and Lucy Pearl also solo artists, also
working on a new documentary is here with us.
Speaker 2 (33:59):
You talked about that too.
Speaker 3 (34:00):
Pennies a record that was the in vogue days and
people not in vogue broke up because of issues.
Speaker 2 (34:05):
But it was really about.
Speaker 3 (34:06):
The finances, right, like these contracts aren't looking right and
I can't continue this if I'm not gonna get paid
what my work was.
Speaker 10 (34:14):
It was a little deeper than that, because you know,
I was still going along. We were doing our would
have been EB four album and it became the EV three.
So I'm not going to get into the details of
the past, because that's why it's the past. But I
was the only one speaking up. Like Terry had done
a solo album. We supported her solo album. The record
company came to me maybe a month later and said, Dorn,
(34:34):
would you like to do a solo album too, And
I'm like, first of all, I know we supported Terry,
but this is not right what they did. And the
more I look at this, it's like it was wrong
that they were in the middle of our career. We're
doing well and we had only done we had only
done two major albums and then a EP. So in
the interim, here comes silvere wrong. And then we did
Don't Let Go which was for the soundtrack, and that
(34:55):
was great, but our career wasn't big enough for Terry
to do a solo album, I think. So we had
found out that we were free and clear from that deal,
and instead of us going as a group, because we
found out because of our attorney told us, wow, Terry
went back and told our producer because she was dating him,
that we are free and clear because they didn't renew
our option. And when that happened, Divide and conquered. We'll
(35:18):
put Terry in the studio and we'll have the other
three girls over here just waiting. And I was like,
wait a minute, it's been months. Terry did an album,
she recorded it, that took a long time. Then she's practicing,
she rehearsing as you say, she's doing videos that took time.
Then she did a promo tour and now she's on
a major tour. That took all that time.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
I got to pay my mortgage, right, you still have
to work.
Speaker 10 (35:39):
Absolutely, And when the lad came to me to do
a solo album, I said yes. And then Maxine and
Sydney called me and they said, Dawn, you did a
solo deal and I said, yeah, I did, and I'm
sorry that I didn't tell you guys. I should have
divulced that to you. However, Terry didn't divulced us that
she was in the studio recording her album.
Speaker 2 (35:55):
She just did it.
Speaker 10 (35:56):
And when we called her, she's like, well, I don't
really agree with what you want to do, and I
want to stand with Denny and Tommy. Well you signed
with us. You didn't sign with Denny and Tommy. You
signed the four of us signed together with Denny and
Tommy as our production company. So that means divide and conquer.
And she's like, I feel this way, I'm going to
stay over here with them. And I'm like, wow, okay,
so we have to decide what we're going to do
and I'm not going to lose my house because of her.
(36:17):
So when the record company came to me months later
and said, Dawn, do you want to do it? So
I should have thought of it, like, okay, there's probably
trying to divide and conquer with me too.
Speaker 14 (36:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (36:26):
Why now we're talking to Don Robinson and we're talking
about what happened within Vogue if she's still in touch
with them.
Speaker 10 (36:32):
But my thing is we shouldn't have had that financial
situation right exactly, and we had sold millions on the
first album. When we were back in the stage from
our first time overseas abroad, I took our manager backstage
because I was confused. I'm like, we just did these
major shows overseas, all of these fans of screaming for
us around the world, and we come home and we're
(36:53):
still broke. He said, you know, that's a pie in
the sky. And said, but David, we already sold all
these millions of records on our first album, like, and
we just came home. We saw how the fans feel
over there as well. And he's like, yeah, but that's
a pie.
Speaker 12 (37:05):
In the sky.
Speaker 2 (37:05):
And I'm like, wait a minute, what.
Speaker 10 (37:06):
Do you mean by that. You gotta sell millions of
albums for that?
Speaker 2 (37:09):
I said, we did and tours and shows exactly.
Speaker 10 (37:13):
And the world loves us, so now I know there's
got to be money there. And he's like, well, you
know it's going to take some time, dude, okay. And
I'm by myself, so I'm going against kind of what
the girls feel. But in my spirit, I've always seen
that something was wrong with this picture. These girls are
loved by the world. We're selling all these records. We
have platinum albums on our wall, and yet we are broken.
(37:33):
When I started seeing our producers get mansions and of
course the executive for the record company, I understood that
she had it. It was our team's job, our managers,
our producers, all these people that say they love us,
that we're family.
Speaker 2 (37:46):
And a lawyer and our lawyer attorney.
Speaker 10 (37:48):
Yeah I didn't put him in there, but yeah, our attorneys.
They should have made sure that we were okay.
Speaker 3 (37:52):
Don Robinson, if I'm in Vogue and Lucy Pearl is
here with us and we're talking more about the documentary
she's working on and how she ended up living in
her car are voluntarily by the way, it's way.
Speaker 4 (38:02):
Up, way up with.
Speaker 3 (38:08):
What's up his way up with Angela Yee and Donna Robinson.
If I'm in Vogue and Lucy Pearl is here with us,
it's been three years of car life. And I know
you said it's temporary. So for you, so what's the
next step? Like do you already have it planned out?
How do you know when it's like okay, time to
do something else.
Speaker 10 (38:24):
I'm looking for deals, like uh, you know, directors, and
like I said, the number one documentary because the story
needs to be told. It happens way too often or
far too often, with celebrities not getting paid their worth.
This is an old story that should still happen, and
it depends on the deals that are on the table.
And it's not that I did this episode for that.
(38:44):
I just knew. I knew how much of an impact
this was going to have. I just knew it. But
once I feel like there's a deal on the table
that is right for me to be able to move
out of my car, and I want to also capture that.
I want to capture you guys, I got this is
the deal that came through for me. I can't really
tell you right now what it is, but it's enough
to get me out of my situation and into a place,
(39:07):
because I don't want to just grab an apartment and
it's like, right, it's temporary, then I be back in
this situation. So I want to know that all my
ducks are in a row and business is taking care
of the way it's supposed to.
Speaker 3 (39:17):
Right now, I'm talking to Don Robinson from in Vogue
has tagged car Life. Has anybody from in Vogue reached
out like watching that or seeing that do you still
speak to them?
Speaker 10 (39:26):
Good question, but they probably know I'm tired of going
back and forth to the group. Every single time I
go back, I go back. We have deals on the
table that makes sense to me and would make sense
anybody else who has a brain in their hand. I'm sorry,
I gotta just speak truthful. This is who I am.
They picked the wrong deal every single time, and so
they know that I'm not going to come back and
deal with their shenanigans again. So they probably like, Dan's
(39:49):
not going to come back. No, I told them the
last time. We had the opportunity to do this the
right way. Us. Sinny and Terry have a member in
the group. She's very nice to me. Rona has never
done anything nefarious, are nasty in my direction. I just
wanted to celebrate our fans with just the four of us,
because Rona wasn't there from the beginning, okay, So I
wanted to share that with the fans, what we created
(40:11):
from day one in the trenches, in living out of
suitcases on the road and shaking hands, kissing babies and
hugging fans. I wanted to give that to the fans
ourselves and Cindy was like, don you know how she
talks like don but you've only payed with us for
thirteen years. Rona's been with us for thirteen years and
you've only you were only with us for eight And
I said, yeah, I understand that, but Rona hasn't brought
(40:33):
a hit, and maxiin and I bring hits, I saying
the biggest hit that we have, Like, come on, I
mean no offense to Rona, but let's celebrate. When we
did the Alicia Keys thing, I want to say two
thousand and seven or eight, the girls asked me to
come back, and Alicia Keys made it very very clear
that she wanted the original four and the girls understood that. Well,
why is it that when Down says it, or the
(40:55):
fans are saying it, even they're not paying attention to that,
they're still ignoring it, like as if they don't hear
what the fans are saying. The fans are making are
very clear that they wanted me, Maxine, Cindy and Terry,
and I'm not going to be where I'm not wanted,
So I'm not going to fight to get back into
something I've already come back. Every single time you guys
ask you to come back and then you make stupid
decisions and I have to walk away.
Speaker 2 (41:15):
Well listen, give it up up, to give it up,
turn it loose.
Speaker 3 (41:18):
That's what we said, free mine. Okay, all right, well
don again. I appreciate you so much, and again you
are an icon. So just a pleasure to be able
to talk to you. And now everybody watch the YouTube

on Will Packer. Now, as you know, he has already
been added to ownership of the Atlanta Hawks. He's part
of that team as a part of new limited partners
of I mean not sorry, the NFL's Atlanta Falcons. I
said the wrong thing, the NFL's Atlanta Falcons. And then
(01:59):
in addition to that, just as a movie producer and director,
he has grows more than one billion dollars worldwide at
the box office, which is such a big deal.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
And he has a New.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
York Times bestseller that's out right now, who better than
you all write the Art of healthy arrogance? You guys
got to make sure you pick up that book, but
shout out to him for all that he's done and accomplished,
just thinking about he went to fam you, he went

So will Packard today we shine a light on you.
(02:34):
Now I'll find thou. Who do you want to shine
a light on?
Speaker 5 (02:37):
I want to shine a line up to everybody who
is protecting their energy from emotional vampires and energy vampires.
People that's just been negative for so long. The effect
the energy from you to feel themselves. You could be friends,
it could be family members. But I will let you know,
keep on fighting, keep on protecting your energy.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
Yeah, that's good advice. So everybody out there, we all
got to fight going on. Make sure you protect your energy.
We can't control what other people do, but we can't
control ourselves, right.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
That part, that part.
Speaker 5 (03:06):
Appreciate you and I want you to have a break.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
Dare all right, Thank you you as well. We appreciate
that good word. That was Hina light eight hundred and
two nine two fifty one fifty. If you couldn't get through,
you could leave a message in China light that way.
And when we come back, let's do your y e t
and Redman. People are thinking that Redman has beef of
metha man, there's some issues there. Will tell you what
he had to say, and I'm gonna tell you how
I interpreted it. It's way up, they says, soothing the
(03:30):
rooms from industry shade to all.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Of gossips out send Angela's spelling that.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
Yet it's way up with Angela yee and it's time
to get into your y e t. So first, I'm
breaking news, oh Man. Garsa Bovet has announced that she
is leaving Real Housewives of Beverly Hill. She was on
the show for five years and this is the reason why.
Speaker 6 (03:56):
One of the reasons why I'm leaving is my family,
my boys there. Last year of high school is next year,
and I want to be a part of that. And
Jade is starting a new career and I want to
be a part of that too. And secondly, I have
the most exciting projects that I am developing, producing and acting.
And I can't tell you anything right now, but you'll
(04:17):
know soon.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
Man shout out to her, and Andy Cohen told that
she's welcome back at any time. She was the first
black woman on that particular franchise, and she really made
an impact in a splash and I want to say
she's got her own production company and she did that
Black Girl Missing Show for Lifetime, and so that movie
came out last year. She executive produced it, starting it,
(04:40):
and they're also extending that franchise. They did two new
movies that she was executive producing. So I feel like
the realm of what she's about to be doing is
more producing, more acting. And we know her from back
in nineteen eighty four she made her first TV appearance,
so she's been doing the thing for quite some time.
So the most love and admiration too, Garza Bouvet for
(05:00):
everything that she has going on. That's a nice exit
to leave while you know you're doing well all right now.
Redman recently was on the Julian Dory podcast and he
talked about whether or not he still hangs out with
METHA man, here's what happened.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
You and Meth get to hang out a lot these days.
Still I don know, no, no, no, We do shows
and we come back home. I don't hang out with
a lot of rappers sot.
Speaker 7 (05:21):
Like once we off the road, were like, all right,
you got family to deal with I got I got
to do.
Speaker 8 (05:26):
My circle is very small.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
All right. Well, people were saying, is there some beef?
I don't think so.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
I feel like he's saying they're older, people have their
own families. They not hanging out When they were younger.
It was a lot of hanging out going on. But
I think both Metha Man and Red Man will say
they're not just outside for stuff. Everybody's got work to do,
all right. Michael Rainie Jr. Had some things to say
about Little Meach. The two of them had a back
and forth, and you know, first Michael Raannie Jr. Said
(05:54):
this about whether or not he feels bad for Little Meach.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
I feel bad for Little Meach.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
I don't feel bad for no Gold and its planning.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
Like I'm a growing man.
Speaker 9 (06:02):
Why I gotta feel bad for another growing man?
Speaker 8 (06:04):
Like you were going into it.
Speaker 9 (06:06):
What you ask for my sympathy for.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
You'd be all right.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
It's like these guys that pitted against each other. They
weren't even on the same show. It was just both
on Stars.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
Well.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
Little Meach responded on social media. He said he got
my name in his mouth more than his garden tool.
Because I can't say that word. I think it rhymes
with slave.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
All right.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
Now, Glorilla has reacted after being compared to that viral
woman with the makeup that looked crazy. I don't know
if you all saw that. She's such a pretty girl.
I don't know if that makeup was real. I feel
like this was something to go viral for it. There's
no way anybody would do someone's makeup like that. Well,
Glorilla went on social media and said, I'm looking through
them quotes of that ugly makeup girl and everybody to
(06:47):
say it looked like me. I'm in y'all and we'res
DM right now, so that's it. She wasn't and she
said at the end of the day that makeup was ugly.
I just had blew up and was constantly getting free
f up. She was being told not to post that
is you can tell I hate it on the pictures.
I just used to be scared to tell people they can't.
This is a lot going on. But anyway, that was
before when Glorilla had somebody posted something to her that
(07:09):
went viral with her makeup not looking the way that
she liked it.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
Listen, makeup is a big deal. As a woman.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
I could tell you, if we don't like our makeup,
it can ruin a whole entire situation.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
All right.
Speaker 3 (07:22):
When we come back about last night, that's where we
discussed what we had going on.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Last night.
Speaker 3 (07:26):
I was at the coffee shop and I was doing
some boss talk with some entrepreneurs, some local entrepreneurs, and
I'm going to tell you what they had to say.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
When it comes to hiring and some of those challenges.
It's way helped.
Speaker 4 (07:38):
Oh night, So about last night, Yes, I went down.
Speaker 3 (07:46):
It's way up with Angela Yee and it's time for
about last night. Now, last night, I was actually at
my coffee shop, Coffee uplifts people, and you know, I
actually have used it precruiter to hire some of the
employees that work there. And I was having a conversation
with some other business owners who I know in the
area and talking to them kind of like about what
(08:08):
they've been going through when it comes to hiring, when
it comes to running a business. My guy John Laster,
who's a comedian but he's also a founder of Black
the App. It's a black owned business app, and he
just added retail to that so now you can actually
purchase some of these items like coffee uplifts people they
were about to launch to that part of it.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
But here's what you have to say about some of.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
The challenges that he's discovered while trying to hire for
this tech company.
Speaker 7 (08:34):
Hiring is extremely tricky because I don't know, So you
really have to trust that the people who are working
on your business are doing the right thing or you're
in trouble. And I've been in trouble while I was
sitting in a meeting with the NBA and the app
wasn't working because one of my developers had no idea
what they were doing.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
Can you imagine what us like.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
You're in a high profile meeting like that, and that's
and then what do you even say? And sometimes you
only have one opportunity to present to somebody?
Speaker 2 (09:05):
All right? Now.
Speaker 3 (09:05):
We also had doctor Body who's an orthodontist, but she's
not just an orthodontis with her own practice. She actually
has also founded her own toothbus, the Big Mouth Toothbus.
She was on Shark Tank by the way with that
as well, so we talked about how that helped her business.
She's hired a lot of family but she's also actually
used it recruiter to hire here's what she said.
Speaker 10 (09:24):
When I first.
Speaker 6 (09:25):
Opened my practice, I hired according to the word of mouth.
So this woman I found her sleeping at my front
desk within the first week.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
So we had a whole conversation about why it's important
and how hard it is to actually find the right person,
how it's kind of like dating around. And Tanika, who
owns Dough Girl Cupcakes, she was there as well, and
she hasn't even hired outside people yet. She's only had
family members. Her and her mom really run the business.
But she really wants to be able to hire somebody,
but it has to be the right person because her
(09:56):
business is her baby and you can't just trust.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
That with anyone.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
So we were just talking about hiring and how ZipRecruiter
has zip intro and you can actually post your job
today and then you can talk to interested qualified candidates tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
And I say this to say you should try it
for free.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
If you need to hire people, go to ZipRecruiter dot
com slash way up and that's a way to try
that zip intro for free. That's what we actually used
when we went to hiring, and that way you're only
talking to people who are qualified. You can put down
the things that you're looking for. You know, do they
have to have a food handler's license? How much experience
they have and you're not just sifting through and guessing.
(10:33):
All right, So that was the conversation we had.
Speaker 8 (10:36):
All right.
Speaker 3 (10:36):
Well, later today, Shy and weather Park are going to
be joining us for Family Legacy.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Oh they're coming up next. All right, well let's do that.
Speaker 3 (10:44):
That show is actually now streaming today on Paramount Plus
and on MTV, so you can check them out. But
that is Meta Man's daughter and Odb's son.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
Family Legacy is way up, y'all.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
I'm more way up with angel now.
Speaker 11 (10:57):
Is what it is.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
All right, It's way up with Angela yee. And for
the first time e their weather Park is here. Yes, yes, yes,
welcome to the show. And my girl Shy is back,
who also performed at Angela y day and killed it.
Speaker 12 (11:10):
Yes I did.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
All right, Well, you guys.
Speaker 3 (11:13):
Are going to be on MTV's Family Legacy and this
is going to be amazing because I know it's fascinating
for people to see, like celebrities, what are their kids doing,
especially when their kids are also doing music. Now, Shy,
I know you also Shy away from letting people know
who your father is. It's always like, okay, don't introduce
me as here we go get metha man's daughter. And
(11:34):
I know your mom is very like when you her
to do it on her own, and you have been
doing it on your own, but then doing this is
also like that's part of what the show was about.
So what made you decide to do it?
Speaker 12 (11:44):
I really decided to do it to give people like
a different understanding of how people like us growing up
with parents.
Speaker 3 (11:52):
In the Spotlight and weather Park, for you, and in
the trailer, you know, you say something that I felt
like had a lot of layered meeting. You talk about
being the son of old dirty bastard but he passed
away when you were nine.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
Yes, for you, how did that affect you?
Speaker 3 (12:07):
Because in the trailer, I feel like what you said
was also like I cannot wait to hear how he
expands on that.
Speaker 9 (12:12):
I don't think that I fully was aware of what
was taking place at nine years old. I think it
really started to hit me at like fifteen sixteen, when
I get to see what a father and son bond
actually looks like. So based off those experiences, you know,
I had to do a lot of like working on
my mental health. You know, I feel like everything my father,
all the challenges that he was facing, This is the
epitome of that, you know, having a fatherless child. Not
(12:35):
to use the word bastard, but you know, a bastard child,
you know, being that.
Speaker 8 (12:41):
Yeah, it's a little emotional.
Speaker 9 (12:42):
Sorry, Yeah, it's just yeah, it's just I'm not the
only one that's feeling these feelings. You know, I have
other siblings out there. So yeah, it's not just about me.
It's about the legacy. It's about the story and making
sure that you know, the people understand that my father,
even though he's not here, he split himself up in
multiple pieces so that you can still get to feel,
touch and hear him.
Speaker 3 (13:03):
You know, I definite knew your father because I did
used to work in the office. I always talk about
my relationship with him because he would call the office
all the time, and I was kind of the person
that was you know, I was an assistant to the CEO,
to Riza and Divine, and so I was the one
that was in charge of like the check books and everything,
and he would always be like, YO, write me a check.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
I'm like, I can't just write a check and hand
it to you.
Speaker 3 (13:23):
But you know, he was great because he would call
curse me out, but then he would call back and
apologize like two minutes later. But it was funny, like
he didn't never mean any harm by any of the things.
It was like his personality just to he was very animated,
you know, in the workplace. So I always have like
really good fond memories of both of your parents. For
you Shy working in the office, and your dad. He
(13:44):
was such a big celebrity but so grounded. Right now,
I am talking to Shy who was met the man's daughter,
and weather Park, who was Odb's son as old Dirty Bastard.
Their show Family Legacy is streaming now. I'm Paramount Plus
and on MTV and look Shy. Part of this is
also being in the news because there was a big
story about your father met the man getting into it
with your ex boyfriend from ten years ago in the gym.
(14:06):
Did he call and tell you about it? Did you
read about it like everybody else? Did you saw it
on the blogs? Like what happened?
Speaker 2 (14:11):
Oh?
Speaker 12 (14:11):
I don't know, girl, I was not involved in any
kind of witch away.
Speaker 8 (14:14):
I really don't know.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
We're at the gym too.
Speaker 12 (14:16):
I don't work out yet. I know I should, but yeah,
I just you know, my dad loves me. He's always
gonna protect me no matter what. Don't believe everything you
read in the media. They was eating me up on Twitter.
Speaker 3 (14:27):
They were eating did not respond. So sometimes you want
to be like, hold up, like, actually you don't know me.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
But listen.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
I am so looking forward to seeing this and seeing
all the Let's talk about some of the kids that's
on there. You know Pepa and Tretchipizana and we've seen
her also on Growing Up Hip Hop. Oh, John Rule's
daughter DMX. I saw in the Lady.
Speaker 12 (14:49):
I like to call them angels. We got a lot
of angels this season. We also have Andree Stone and
her son doing their interview together Wow for di'angelo.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
So we can see that on TV Paramount Plus.
Speaker 12 (15:01):
Yes, make sure y'all get your Paramount Plus subscriptions. You
could also watch it on Amazon Prime.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
All right, but thank you both so much. We'll be watching.
Speaker 12 (15:07):
Yes, thank you, Mars five y'all.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
When we come back. We have your yet. And let's
talk about Nelly now.
Speaker 3 (15:13):
He talked about appearing on MTV Cribs, and he said
it was the worst thing that he did.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
All right, we'll discuss. It's way up just like.
Speaker 3 (15:21):
The talk like they Angela Jean like they Angelie Jean.
Speaker 4 (15:24):
Man, she's spilling it all. This is yeaty way up.
Speaker 3 (15:30):
It's way up at Angela yee and it is time
for your yet. So Nelly talked about his episode of
MTV Cribs that was in the early two thousand. I'm
gonna say one of the ones that I remember the
most was when Redman did it. I will never forget
that episode of MTV Cribs because his house was you know,
the screen doors, stuff was broken. It was people laying around.
(15:51):
I thought it was like the realest thing ever. People
thought that it was even fake. But here is what
Nelly had to say about his MTV Cribs episode while
he was talking on the j Cruise Show.
Speaker 13 (16:00):
Jill Nelly, was your MTV Cribs real Hell Yeah, I
sold it.
Speaker 8 (16:04):
I had to get rid of it.
Speaker 13 (16:05):
It was worst thing I did for the house being
on MTV Cribs because people, Yeah, when I did it,
there was no gate on the house and people were
pulling their boats up to the dock. My mom is
out by the pool, macole a boat up on the dock,
walk up the dock.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
All right, I can see that being an issue and
people not thinking about that. MTV Cribs used to be
such a big deal. If y'all remember when that show
was out. Is there anything equipped I remember? Lifestyles of
the Rich and Famous. That was the show too. All right, now,
let's talk about Ben Affleck. He is on the cover
of GQ and he's answering all these questions because you
(16:42):
know, normally he does not do that. So they talked about
the FBI visiting his house, and that was in the tabloid.
You know, he don't like all of that, and he
said the FBI did in fact visit his house, but
he said that he said that he was trying to
figure out what was going on. He called like, hey,
the FBI, where you're at my house? Do you want
to talk to me? So what happened was there was
a break in of a federal officials home in that area.
(17:04):
So the FBI went around and whoever lived there, they
rang their bell. So it was something he didn't even
know about. And he said they didn't even know it
was his house when they came there and rang the Bell,
and then they also talked about his relationship and his
divorce from Jennifer Lopez and her documentary that she put out,
The Greatest Love Story Never Told. The entire premise of
the film is She's like, we're private people, but we
(17:25):
have public dimensions as artists. And he talked about his
temperament is to be a little bit more reserved and
private than hers. As happens in relationships, you don't always
have the same attitude towards these things. And so I thought, oh,
this is interesting, because how do you reconcile that? And
he said, you don't marry a ship captain and then say, well,
I don't like going out in the water. And he
(17:46):
said that in the documentary, and that's the part that
they use. So he said, you've got to own what
you knew going into any relationship. And I think it's
important to say that wasn't the cause of some major facture.
It's not like you can watch that documentary and go, oh,
now I understand and the issues that these two had.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
He's right about that, though.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
You can't say I'm marrying a ship captain and then
say I don't want to be out on the water
and also shout out to NB a young boy. He
got released from prison earlier than expected. He spent almost
a year behind bars, so welcome home to him. All right, Well,
we do have an announcement when we come back, and
this is for you guys up here and for our
(18:23):
Way Up gang family. Will tell you what's going on
and the reason that we can all pet ourselves on
the back. Right now, here's Wile and Jeremiah on Chill

and it's also the fiftieth annual Gracie Award, so it's
quite an amazing year. And what this does is it
champions women's voices, stories and achievements in many forms of media,
from screens and podcasts to radio and creative accomplishments behind
(19:40):
the camera. Amazing room to be in when they do
the gracies. I'm out in La so I already bought
my flight because they definitely told us ahead of time,
so I was like, let me go get my flight
right now.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
But I'm excited for that, So thank you to everybody.
Speaker 3 (19:54):
But the reason why we did win this Gracie is
because of the people who listen to the show. That
is the most important thing, and so we definitely don't
take that for granted. Nothing means more to me than
when I'm out and about and I'm going places and
people come up to me and they know different segments
on the show. Literally, I've had people tell me as
they're driving my uber that they want.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
To tell me a secret so they can go viral,
and no, they want to just tell me.
Speaker 3 (20:16):
And I've heard some of the most shocking secrets from
people who I can see, so they're not anonymous. But
I appreciate y'all anybody who does ask yee when they
roll up on me and ask a question, even people,
and this means I think the most when people tell
me they listen to Wealth Wednesdays and they've learned a
lot from that of they joined the Wealth Wednesday real
Estate Club, just because the whole point and way up
(20:38):
with Angela Yee is that we are on the way up.
And as I told Mano yesterday, you know when they
go low, we go way up with Angela Gyee. So again,
we thank you to the Alliance for Women in Media
Foundation and the great work that they do for the
past fifty years of honoring people who are storytellers. Everybody
else who want to Gracie, we want to congratulate you too.
(21:00):
Hopefully I get to see a lot of you in person,
because like I said, it.
Speaker 2 (21:03):
Is one of the most amazing rooms to be in.
Speaker 11 (21:05):
Dan is raising as he hand, Yes, I was asking play.
I would like to add though, that this is our
second Craze Award. We have one back to back and
the show has only been on two airs, so I
mean the show has only been on air for two years,
so congratulations, Angela.
Speaker 2 (21:18):
Oh well, thank you, thank you.
Speaker 8 (21:20):
You're a workhorse.
Speaker 2 (21:21):
I do work a lot, y'all.
Speaker 3 (21:23):
I ain't gonna lie, but yes, so very exciting, So
thank you again, and thank y'all for listening and supporting us.
Don Robinson's going to be joining us later too, by
the way, if I'm in Vogue, so that's going to
be an amazing exclusive.
Speaker 2 (21:35):
Y'all know. I love me some in Vogue. I love
Don Robinson.
Speaker 3 (21:37):
I love Lucy Pearl And recently she went viral because
she was living in her car and people had a
lot to say about that. So we're gonna hear what
actually happened after that and what she, you know, really
has going on. And we got the Way Up mixed
at the top of the hour. Let's go just like
the chout.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
Like they and Jelie Jean, like they and Jelie Jean.
Speaker 4 (21:55):
Man, she's spilling it all. This is yeaky, way up.
Speaker 3 (22:01):
It's way up at Angela. Yee, I am here today
to do your eye tee. And I got so excited
when I was scrolling through Instagram and saw the upcoming
movie Final Destination Bloodlines has a trailer out. It's coming
out on May sixteenth, and it shows ordinary things that
turn deadly. You know what final Destinations about. You're never
(22:22):
going to look the same at going to have a
drink at a local bar. Anyway, here is what that
trailer sounds like.
Speaker 4 (22:28):
I always knew this day would come.
Speaker 8 (22:30):
Death is coming for our family.
Speaker 2 (22:33):
Gredma, what's happening to us?
Speaker 8 (22:34):
Years ago?
Speaker 10 (22:35):
I had a premonition that started.
Speaker 2 (22:37):
At all I saw what death was about to do.
But Death doesn't like it when you mess with his plans.
Speaker 3 (22:44):
Ooo, Baby, I'm excited. What do you think, Dan, I'm.
Speaker 8 (22:48):
Excited to this day.
Speaker 11 (22:49):
I do not like driving behind like eighteen wheelers that
have like the logs in them from one of the
first destinations.
Speaker 3 (22:54):
And have Yeah, have you ever been about to get
on a flight and then all of a sudden Final
Destinations on and you'll like, dang all right? And Lizzo
is going to be playing a sister Rosetta Tharp and
an upcoming bio pick and that's gonna be on Amazon
MGM Studios.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
It's called Rosetta.
Speaker 3 (23:10):
She died at fifty eight years old, inn Arkansas native
who influenced artists like Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, and Little Richard.
She's considered one of the greatest guitarists of all time.
So Lizo posted black people made rock and Roll. Yeah,
I'm out here reclaiming rock and roll for us. Beautiful
thing to see.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
All right. And under Armour it's back in the NFL
in Rina.
Speaker 3 (23:29):
The NFL has rekindled their relationship with under Armour that
is now the official partner for footwear and gloves. They
previously were the official supplier from two thousand and six
to twenty twenty, but now they are back. They used
to have to cover up the logos after all of that,
but it's a long term partnership that's going to make
that brand back again.
Speaker 2 (23:48):
Under Armour.
Speaker 3 (23:49):
I remember I invested in under Armour and then things
crashed with it.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
You gotta tell your Mike on do.
Speaker 8 (23:55):
You still have a stock?
Speaker 2 (23:56):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (23:57):
Okay, so hope, let's see what happens I mean down
far all right. And speaking of money, DDG recently was
streaming and he had some things to say about how
much money it would take for you to sustain a
lifetime or how much money it wouldn't take. Here's what
he said.
Speaker 8 (24:14):
Ten ms for the rest of your entire life is
not enough money.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
Let's debate, please, I would love to get canceled about this.
I stand on it. You don't have nothing to do
with me being a rapper, don't have nothing to do
with me.
Speaker 8 (24:26):
Won't nice?
Speaker 1 (24:28):
It will have nothing to do with none of that.
Speaker 3 (24:30):
Oh and you know wealth Wednesdays tomorrow. What do you
think about that statement? Ten ms for the rest of
your life.
Speaker 8 (24:35):
I think I could make that work.
Speaker 3 (24:37):
I think if I invested in some real estate and
had different, multiple multi unit properties, and then that money
was invested right in stocks and different things, and you know,
there's for sure where you can make that money grow. Now,
if you just had ten million dollars never bought, but
nothing never invested, I could see, because inflation keeps on
going up. A million dollars is not the same as
(24:58):
what it was when we were kids.
Speaker 8 (25:00):
I think it's enough even if you were to have
no investments, if you were to live like a super
humble lifestyle.
Speaker 3 (25:04):
It depends where you live, yeah, because some cities are
quite affordable and some cost you way more to live in.
But yes, yeah, so I think it depends now if
you want to live like I'm sure DDG lives or
if you want to have a luxury lifestyle, it's definitely
not going to last.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
But like you said, you think you could do that, not.
Speaker 3 (25:23):
Buy anything, pay rent, pay for food for a lifetime.
Speaker 8 (25:27):
I mean, I get bored, but yes.
Speaker 2 (25:28):
Inflation is crazy, though I'm.
Speaker 8 (25:30):
Not survivor's mentality.
Speaker 3 (25:31):
Yes, absolutely, like I just even, Yeah, New York is expensive.
Speaker 2 (25:35):
I'm not going to Laea.
Speaker 8 (25:36):
New York City's out of the earth quake.
Speaker 2 (25:38):
Live here.
Speaker 8 (25:39):
You can move upstate New York. Property is really cheap
up there.
Speaker 3 (25:42):
Yeah, yeah, if you're renting, because I think property tax
gets crazy too, and the more property that you have,
it just depends, it depends.
Speaker 8 (25:50):
Yeah, people buy tons of acres up there because it's
so cheap.
Speaker 3 (25:52):
You could also buy a multi unit home, live there
and rent out to other units and that'll.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
Pay all of your bills.
Speaker 8 (25:57):
That's also true.
Speaker 3 (25:58):
All right, Well, anyway, that is your I didn't want
to debate him like that, but I couldn't help it.
You know, I love having these types of conversations, you know,
along those lines. I'm gonna be in Memphis tomorrow talking
about development, talking about real estate, So make sure y'all
come and check me out there, and we do have
ask Ye coming up. Eight hundred and two ninety two
fifty one fifty.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
Called this up. Any question you have, We're here to
help its way.
Speaker 4 (26:19):
Up, whether it's relationship, for career advice. Angela's dropping facts,
so you should know. This is ask gee what's up?
Speaker 2 (26:26):
His way up?
Speaker 3 (26:26):
With Angela Yee. I'm Angela Yee and it's time for
asking yee. This is where you guys call in and
I give you some advice. And today we have a
caller from our voicemail.
Speaker 2 (26:34):
Listen to this.
Speaker 14 (26:36):
I have been dating this guy for two years and
next month will be our anniversary. About two weeks ago,
I found out that he was cheating on me. He
pocketed oled me while he was with someone else, and
I heard the actual act on my voicemail. I have
ended the relationship, but I'm still so madly in love
(26:56):
with this man and it's tearing me apart, and I
just don't know what to do. Can you help me please?
Speaker 2 (27:03):
I have to be honest. The very same thing happened
to me.
Speaker 3 (27:05):
I didn't hear them having sex, but my ex boyfriend
pocket dilled me and I heard him with another woman. Talking,
having a whole conversation. I was actually in the car
with one of my friends, so we both heard it
because it was on the bluetooth and the speaker in
the car. And I did hang up and call him back,
and he denied it and then pretended he was at
his friend's house. But anyway, the story ends like this, Okay,
(27:28):
I did give him another chance after that, even though
I knew that he was lying and cheating, and guess what,
he did it again and again and again. And so
the question is, you know, being madly in love with
somebody and knowing that you've heard that. I don't know
how you're going to get over that, because when you're
madly in love with somebody and they do something like that,
it is so hard to fathom why. And I'm not
(27:50):
saying that people can't change. They can, but they have
a lot to prove.
Speaker 1 (27:54):
Now.
Speaker 3 (27:54):
I think ripping that band aid off and actually breaking
up with somebody is a great first step. But you
have to be patient with yourself and know that of
course you still love this person. Of course you're upset,
of course you're hurt. Of course you want him back.
Those are all normal things. You can't turn your feelings off,
but you also have to know every day is going
to get better. I just want to say to you
(28:15):
that unless he shows some tremendous effort and trying to
repair things and show you how he can fix and
change things, which I think shouldn't be anything, that he
should easily be able to come to you and say,
you know, you have to stay away from him, because
otherwise he'll think that he can just keep on.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
Doing what he's doing.
Speaker 3 (28:31):
Because you're not going to leave him anyway, I would say,
you need to keep yourself occupied. I gave myself a
rule when I was with my friends. I was like,
do not let me continue to talk about him all
the time. Let's talk about other things. That was the
only way that I was going to be able to
move on and get over it. And it did help
me tremendously. So I am wishing you all the best,
(28:51):
and every day is going to be hard, and that's fine,
And who knows what the future of my whole because
one thing I also learned is that later on down
the line, when you find the right person, none of
that from the past matters anymore. So the only way
you'll find the right person is to cut all that
negativity and block out all of the things that you
don't need. And he sounds like something you don't need
(29:12):
in your life, all right, that is your answer for
ask ye. Eight hundred and two nine fifty one fifty
is a number in case you couldn't get through. And
when we come back, Don Robinson is going to be
joining us. You know her as a member of the
group in Vogue, which I love, also a member of
Lucy Pearl, but also most recently going viral for talking
about car life and living in her car.
Speaker 2 (29:33):
You guys will love this conversation. It's way up.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
She turn me up here, we go up there. This
is way up with Angela.
Speaker 8 (29:41):
Ye.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
What's up? Is way up with Angela? Yee.
Speaker 3 (29:44):
And first of all, you guys know, I've always said
how much of a fan I am of this woman
right here, and she recently went viral, but I've been
talking about what a fan I am even before that.
Speaker 2 (29:54):
Don Robinson is joining us via zoom. What's up? Don Robinson?
Speaker 5 (29:59):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (30:00):
Good?
Speaker 10 (30:00):
How are you? Angela?
Speaker 2 (30:01):
I'm doing well and you look amazing. Thank you.
Speaker 3 (30:05):
I think it's important for people to put the whole
thing in context, because you describe a series of circumstances
that happen with your previous co manager and how that
kind of led up to you, like staying in a
hotel then not getting a place. But people do have
to I think watch the whole thing because they were
clips that were posted, so it made it seem like,
how did this happen? She just all of a sudden, is,
(30:26):
you know, homeless living in her car? But it was
actually something that one day you were like, you know what,
I'm going to try this.
Speaker 2 (30:32):
I want to do this car life thing.
Speaker 10 (30:34):
It's almost like people think that I was just like
thrown into carl Iff and I had no, she's just homeless.
It's not that at all. I made a choice, Like
I said, I could have stayed at the hotels, or
it could have worked it out even with my manager
to stay with him, Like how can we make room
in your apartment? He has a one bedroom, one bathroom.
It's like they saw what they wanted to see. They
didn't see what I said. My car is right now temporarily,
(30:57):
my room, my home, but I'm building my life from here.
It's like that, and somebody said, somebody said, oh no,
she's not homeless, look at her nails. She got to know.
So it's called polish.
Speaker 2 (31:08):
And somebody else said she has an assistant.
Speaker 3 (31:13):
That weighing in and saying, you know, this is her twice,
this is what she wants to do.
Speaker 2 (31:17):
She has an assistant. You're not, you know, on house
with an assistant right exactly.
Speaker 10 (31:21):
And I've only met him once in my life, so
I was shocked. He doesn't know my story. So he's
assuming instead of reaching out to me directly and say, hey,
you know, I heard about your situation. What do you need?
Are you okay?
Speaker 2 (31:32):
Or you know what?
Speaker 10 (31:33):
I don't know her story, but she's being very brave,
like be quiet.
Speaker 3 (31:36):
Right now talking to Don Robinson from in Vogue. So
how are things with you and your mom?
Speaker 14 (31:42):
Now?
Speaker 3 (31:42):
I know that you said that previously you were staying
with your mother before you started car life.
Speaker 10 (31:48):
My mom and I like, don't have that relationship that
I really want, like I said, and I said that
stuff not to put my mother on blasts. I've always
admired my mom. Something happened with that relationship and there
was anger. I was like, oh, what is happening. I
almost thought maybe early stages of dementia until I mentioned
something to her She's like, yes, I did. I said that,
and I'd say it again. Okay, so you knew what
(32:09):
you were saying, and she didn't atone for what she said.
Speaker 3 (32:13):
I saw she She commented after all this and said
that she would give you a hug if she saw you,
and that.
Speaker 10 (32:21):
You have to say that to make herself You know
what I mean. There's certain types of narcissism that I've
heard about or learned about in my lifetime. My ex
is one of them. My mother's a certain type, and
so she doesn't want to look like I'm not trying
to make a look bad as a mother. She's been
a amazing mother. But as she's gotten older, something happened
when I lived with her again, and I'm like, this
(32:42):
is not the same woman. So they were so anxious
to get an interview with her, and I was like,
why are these people reaching out so hard on my mom.
I didn't get to her, and she didn't contact me
to say, hey, do on these people want to talk
to me. That's what it used to be back in
the day, right, she just did the interview with them.
This is what I wish would have happened. Would have
been nice if my mom said, you know what, my
daughter and I said some things to my daughter that
(33:04):
were not very nice, and I regret those things, but
we'll do with that with each other. I love her.
She could have just taken accountability. I guess that would
have been great, and didn't do that.
Speaker 3 (33:14):
And you mentioned your ex and I saw he also
said he offered you a job, and like.
Speaker 10 (33:20):
Would you work with your ex? He has to take
my shine because he doesn't have shine of his own,
so he made comments that he shouldn't have made. I
haven't heard from him about a job, and why would
I take a job from an ex?
Speaker 3 (33:29):
Don Robinson if I'm in Vogue and Lucy Pearl is
here with us, and we're talking more about the documentary
she's working on and how she ended up living in
her car voluntarily.
Speaker 2 (33:38):
By the way, it's way up.
Speaker 1 (33:40):
Everybody listen yea.
Speaker 3 (33:42):
Yea, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yee is but y'all being waiting.
Speaker 4 (33:45):
Foh you tapped in a way up with Angela Yee?
Speaker 2 (33:49):
What's up?
Speaker 3 (33:49):
His way up with Angela Yee and Donna Robinson, I
Fro'm in Vogue and Lucy Pearl also solo artists, also
working on a new documentary is here with us.
Speaker 2 (33:59):
You talked about that too.
Speaker 3 (34:00):
Pennies a record that was the in vogue days and
people not in vogue broke up because of issues.
Speaker 2 (34:05):
But it was really about.
Speaker 3 (34:06):
The finances, right, like these contracts aren't looking right and
I can't continue this if I'm not gonna get paid
what my work was.
Speaker 10 (34:14):
It was a little deeper than that, because you know,
I was still going along. We were doing our would
have been EB four album and it became the EV three.
So I'm not going to get into the details of
the past, because that's why it's the past. But I
was the only one speaking up. Like Terry had done
a solo album. We supported her solo album. The record
company came to me maybe a month later and said, Dorn,
(34:34):
would you like to do a solo album too, And
I'm like, first of all, I know we supported Terry,
but this is not right what they did. And the
more I look at this, it's like it was wrong
that they were in the middle of our career. We're
doing well and we had only done we had only
done two major albums and then a EP. So in
the interim, here comes silvere wrong. And then we did
Don't Let Go which was for the soundtrack, and that
(34:55):
was great, but our career wasn't big enough for Terry
to do a solo album, I think. So we had
found out that we were free and clear from that deal,
and instead of us going as a group, because we
found out because of our attorney told us, wow, Terry
went back and told our producer because she was dating him,
that we are free and clear because they didn't renew
our option. And when that happened, Divide and conquered. We'll
(35:18):
put Terry in the studio and we'll have the other
three girls over here just waiting. And I was like,
wait a minute, it's been months. Terry did an album,
she recorded it, that took a long time. Then she's practicing,
she rehearsing as you say, she's doing videos that took time.
Then she did a promo tour and now she's on
a major tour. That took all that time.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
I got to pay my mortgage, right, you still have
to work.
Speaker 10 (35:39):
Absolutely, And when the lad came to me to do
a solo album, I said yes. And then Maxine and
Sydney called me and they said, Dawn, you did a
solo deal and I said, yeah, I did, and I'm
sorry that I didn't tell you guys. I should have
divulced that to you. However, Terry didn't divulced us that
she was in the studio recording her album.
Speaker 2 (35:55):
She just did it.
Speaker 10 (35:56):
And when we called her, she's like, well, I don't
really agree with what you want to do, and I
want to stand with Denny and Tommy. Well you signed
with us. You didn't sign with Denny and Tommy. You
signed the four of us signed together with Denny and
Tommy as our production company. So that means divide and conquer.
And she's like, I feel this way, I'm going to
stay over here with them. And I'm like, wow, okay,
so we have to decide what we're going to do
and I'm not going to lose my house because of her.
(36:17):
So when the record company came to me months later
and said, Dawn, do you want to do it? So
I should have thought of it, like, okay, there's probably
trying to divide and conquer with me too.
Speaker 14 (36:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (36:26):
Why now we're talking to Don Robinson and we're talking
about what happened within Vogue if she's still in touch
with them.
Speaker 10 (36:32):
But my thing is we shouldn't have had that financial
situation right exactly, and we had sold millions on the
first album. When we were back in the stage from
our first time overseas abroad, I took our manager backstage
because I was confused. I'm like, we just did these
major shows overseas, all of these fans of screaming for
us around the world, and we come home and we're
(36:53):
still broke. He said, you know, that's a pie in
the sky. And said, but David, we already sold all
these millions of records on our first album, like, and
we just came home. We saw how the fans feel
over there as well. And he's like, yeah, but that's
a pie.
Speaker 12 (37:05):
In the sky.
Speaker 2 (37:05):
And I'm like, wait a minute, what.
Speaker 10 (37:06):
Do you mean by that. You gotta sell millions of
albums for that?
Speaker 2 (37:09):
I said, we did and tours and shows exactly.
Speaker 10 (37:13):
And the world loves us, so now I know there's
got to be money there. And he's like, well, you
know it's going to take some time, dude, okay. And
I'm by myself, so I'm going against kind of what
the girls feel. But in my spirit, I've always seen
that something was wrong with this picture. These girls are
loved by the world. We're selling all these records. We
have platinum albums on our wall, and yet we are broken.
(37:33):
When I started seeing our producers get mansions and of
course the executive for the record company, I understood that
she had it. It was our team's job, our managers,
our producers, all these people that say they love us,
that we're family.
Speaker 2 (37:46):
And a lawyer and our lawyer attorney.
Speaker 10 (37:48):
Yeah I didn't put him in there, but yeah, our attorneys.
They should have made sure that we were okay.
Speaker 3 (37:52):
Don Robinson, if I'm in Vogue and Lucy Pearl is
here with us and we're talking more about the documentary
she's working on and how she ended up living in
her car are voluntarily by the way, it's way.
Speaker 4 (38:02):
Up, way up with.
Speaker 3 (38:08):
What's up his way up with Angela Yee and Donna Robinson.
If I'm in Vogue and Lucy Pearl is here with us,
it's been three years of car life. And I know
you said it's temporary. So for you, so what's the
next step? Like do you already have it planned out?
How do you know when it's like okay, time to
do something else.
Speaker 10 (38:24):
I'm looking for deals, like uh, you know, directors, and
like I said, the number one documentary because the story
needs to be told. It happens way too often or
far too often, with celebrities not getting paid their worth.
This is an old story that should still happen, and
it depends on the deals that are on the table.
And it's not that I did this episode for that.
(38:44):
I just knew. I knew how much of an impact
this was going to have. I just knew it. But
once I feel like there's a deal on the table
that is right for me to be able to move
out of my car, and I want to also capture that.
I want to capture you guys, I got this is
the deal that came through for me. I can't really
tell you right now what it is, but it's enough
to get me out of my situation and into a place,
(39:07):
because I don't want to just grab an apartment and
it's like, right, it's temporary, then I be back in
this situation. So I want to know that all my
ducks are in a row and business is taking care
of the way it's supposed to.
Speaker 3 (39:17):
Right now, I'm talking to Don Robinson from in Vogue
has tagged car Life. Has anybody from in Vogue reached
out like watching that or seeing that do you still
speak to them?
Speaker 10 (39:26):
Good question, but they probably know I'm tired of going
back and forth to the group. Every single time I
go back, I go back. We have deals on the
table that makes sense to me and would make sense
anybody else who has a brain in their hand. I'm sorry,
I gotta just speak truthful. This is who I am.
They picked the wrong deal every single time, and so
they know that I'm not going to come back and
deal with their shenanigans again. So they probably like, Dan's
(39:49):
not going to come back. No, I told them the
last time. We had the opportunity to do this the
right way. Us. Sinny and Terry have a member in
the group. She's very nice to me. Rona has never
done anything nefarious, are nasty in my direction. I just
wanted to celebrate our fans with just the four of us,
because Rona wasn't there from the beginning, okay, So I
wanted to share that with the fans, what we created
(40:11):
from day one in the trenches, in living out of
suitcases on the road and shaking hands, kissing babies and
hugging fans. I wanted to give that to the fans
ourselves and Cindy was like, don you know how she
talks like don but you've only payed with us for
thirteen years. Rona's been with us for thirteen years and
you've only you were only with us for eight And
I said, yeah, I understand that, but Rona hasn't brought
(40:33):
a hit, and maxiin and I bring hits, I saying
the biggest hit that we have, Like, come on, I
mean no offense to Rona, but let's celebrate. When we
did the Alicia Keys thing, I want to say two
thousand and seven or eight, the girls asked me to
come back, and Alicia Keys made it very very clear
that she wanted the original four and the girls understood that. Well,
why is it that when Down says it, or the
(40:55):
fans are saying it, even they're not paying attention to that,
they're still ignoring it, like as if they don't hear
what the fans are saying. The fans are making are
very clear that they wanted me, Maxine, Cindy and Terry,
and I'm not going to be where I'm not wanted,
So I'm not going to fight to get back into
something I've already come back. Every single time you guys
ask you to come back and then you make stupid
decisions and I have to walk away.
Speaker 2 (41:15):
Well listen, give it up up, to give it up,
turn it loose.
Speaker 3 (41:18):
That's what we said, free mine. Okay, all right, well
don again. I appreciate you so much, and again you
are an icon. So just a pleasure to be able
to talk to you. And now everybody watch the YouTube
and make sure they're paying attention and.
Speaker 2 (41:35):
Watching the blogs.
Speaker 3 (41:36):
Let that at least set it off for everything else
for a year.
Speaker 10 (41:39):
Yes, sir official Dawn Robinson it is and Sean is
spelled sh yy and ease.
Speaker 2 (41:45):
All right, I appreciate you so much.
Speaker 10 (41:46):
Thank you, Thank you, Angela, thank you so much.
Speaker 3 (41:49):
So you can watch that full interview on my YouTube
channel Way Up with You, And I do want to
let you guys know that it was actually her PR
person that's set up a room for her to actually
do the interview in and also get her makeup done.
That's not what she normally would do, but to be
prepared for this interview, she kind of stepped out of
her comfort zone.
Speaker 2 (42:08):
So just remember that part too. It's way up
