Good morning. You're listening to Shamelessly Chante and I'm your host,

not just in a functional way. And what I mean
by functional.
Speaker 3 (00:35):
When I was growing up in upstate New York, I
had to listen to the radio for school closures. So
I wake up very early in the morning and the
radio would be playing and it would say like, hey,
Orange County close for two hours, Putnam County School closed
for one hour, depending on where you lived and how
(00:57):
much snow you got, that is, determine it on if
you were going to school or not. So during the
you know, the announcements of school closures was songs playing, right,
you had to get the music and then you had
to get the information. So as long as I have
(01:20):
been alive, the radio has just been on, like on
in the background. That's how I got my information from
a local perspective, like hey, these events are happening. A
concert is happening and it's never gone away until streaming.
Speaker 4 (01:40):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
CDs though also impacted radio right early on because you
could play your record and not have to wait for
someone to play it for you to get it. But

radio playing on the summer days. Oh yeah, right. So

you know here, Like I spent a lot of time

Really yes, yeah.

space that already to do that regularly because you never

Speaker 8 (10:46):
Anyway, Long story short, when I got to Saint Louis
in UH in eighty nine, there was a gentleman who
was in my position. He oversaw the UH four hip
hop stations we had in Saint Louis and Houston, and
he told my program directed that there were no black
people named Dave because the first of all, he doesn't
(11:07):
sound like he's from Saint Louis. He sounds like he's
from New York. And his name is Dave. Like, you
got to come up with another name. So they gave
me a list.
Speaker 3 (11:14):
I know your name isn't Doc, it's Dave David. Well,
we couldn't find Dave. Dave, Oh you don't look like it.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
So he.
Speaker 8 (11:24):
Gave me a list that I had to pick from.
I was so offended that this white guy was telling
me how I had to name myself. I think the
last name was the doctor Dave Winter, and I was like,
let's just do doc. You know, just grabbed the paper
walked out.
Speaker 3 (11:37):

Speaker 4 (11:50):
My wife calls me Dave.
Speaker 3 (11:51):
Yeah, my mom calls me Dave, but not people in
the industry, they call you Doc.

Speaker 4 (13:14):
Have I discovered music on TikTok?
Speaker 1 (13:16):
No.
Speaker 8 (13:16):
I've had people, some of my people have worked with me,
say yeah, I just came across hip TikTok. We've reinvigorated
records that I've heard on TikTok like Miguel's record short
thing somehow on TikTok just came back.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
And so, okay, I have not discovered music on TikTok
im And honestly, I am not on TikTok. I'm more
of an instagrammer, and I to be honest, I find
it somewhat silly to do some of the.
Speaker 8 (13:51):
Yeah you know, you know Instagram has becoming Facebook, which
is TikTok.
Speaker 5 (13:56):
Is becoming Okay, I really want to know this one.
Never approve a song you didn't like because you knew
it would chart.
Speaker 4 (14:03):
I'm not. I'm not a dictator.
Speaker 8 (14:05):
So I work with other people and from time to
time that someone will say I think this is smash.
And you know, some of my some of my team
are younger than me, so I sometimes I give them
the benefit of a doubt and put a record in
and it might may or may not work, And I'm like, yeah,
I told you crap, you know, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (14:24):
Okay, use the term Brooklyn.
Speaker 4 (14:30):
Yeah, what about.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
You have my question down? You took it out. I
didn't see that question.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
What was it?
Speaker 3 (14:40):
The term Brooklyn whenever necessary or to make your point,
I'm from Brooklyn. You know because I'm from Brooklyn.
Speaker 8 (14:47):
You know, yeah, I said, but I say it so
I didn't realize how often I say it, to the
point where a lot of my team will say, it's dog,
he's from Brooklyn. But there is a thing, you know,
if you know, I mean, we grew up at a
time where you know, you had to you know, you
(15:08):
couldn't just walk the streets, and and you know you
had sometimes you had to.
Speaker 4 (15:14):
You had to have that thing.
Speaker 8 (15:15):
And if you come from Brooklyn, you know, and and
I've managed over the years to be able to, you know,
kind of control that better case.
Speaker 4 (15:26):
In point.
Speaker 8 (15:28):
Richie Harmon sixth grade, I like Lisa. He likes Lisa.
He's my guy. He calls me the N word.
Speaker 4 (15:40):
Brooklyn and.
Speaker 8 (15:44):
Knocked his ass and he rocked, And sister Carmely came
up to me and said, look, Dave, you're going to
be called that name your entire life, so you need
to get accustomed to it.
Speaker 4 (15:53):
And I looked at her like, no, I guess I'm
not so fast forward.
Speaker 8 (15:59):
I'm in college playing basketball against I think we're in Alaska,
playing against the universe of Alaska.
Speaker 4 (16:05):
I'm wearing this kid out.
Speaker 8 (16:07):
He starts talking crap, and I'm like, dude, I got
like twenty points, you got like five, what are you
talking about? Calls me the N word? What I get
thrown out the game? My coach comes up to me
and says, so, what happens? They called me the N word?
So he punched him. I said, yeah, so now you're
not playing and he's playing. Yeah, life lesson Yeah yeah yeah.
(16:30):
And so fast forward working walking with my wife in Orlando.
She's biracial, she's black and French, and we're going into
going into a restaurant. This woman's walking towards us and
she's like, look at these two niggas, and my wife
just keeps walking. Didn't even phase her. And I saw
(16:55):
the power of taking the power out of that word. Wow,
And we've subsequently been called that since then. I've taken
that posture and almost to the point where the person
is confused, like don't for the reason? Yeah, yeah, like
what's going on? And we just walked by like we
took the power out the words. So that things coming
(17:17):
full circle for me. Wow, And you know, I've learned
a valuable lesson that you know, you got to control
of Brooklyn and take the power of the words.
Speaker 4 (17:27):
But when I say Brooklyn, it's because because you let
them know. Ye, sometimes somebody tries.
Speaker 8 (17:35):
I just.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
Try.
Speaker 3 (17:39):
And when I say I'm from New York, I don't
actually just what I mean.
Speaker 8 (17:43):
But you know, coming from New York, there is an
inner thing because of because you just can't walk on
the subway in New York with oh, I'm a tourist, look,
because you'll get punked, you know.
Speaker 4 (17:55):
And so there's that thing that you have to have.
Speaker 3 (17:57):
But I also feel like it represents like a great
to right, like working real hard.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
Right.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
It's a hustle mentality. Don't don't mess with us because
we're from here. Yep.
Speaker 4 (18:07):
Absolutely, I don't try it, you know, and don't try.
Speaker 3 (18:10):
I think I hear you. Okay, go to the next place.
Speaker 4 (18:15):
What I'm talking about.
Speaker 3 (18:16):
Okay. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (18:19):
If you want to protect your skin quin, make sure
you get some black girls sunscreen black ur gun dog

Speaker 6 (18:46):

Speaker 5 (18:48):
Think some of these media personalities need media training.
Speaker 3 (18:53):
Yeah, I would say not just the media personalities, to
anyone that is camera facing. I think that there are
way used to frame things.
Speaker 4 (19:01):
Do you read comments?
Speaker 3 (19:02):
Good question, dumble, because I'll get my feelings. But I
read a lot of comments on videos where I'm like,
I am I'm not a person to say mean things
about someone, but I sometimes think them. I just want
(19:24):
to know somebody else is thinking them too, and that's
why I may read someone else's comments. But on my comments, yeah,
I engage.
Speaker 4 (19:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (19:34):
I hate to see when people like just say hurtful things. Yeah,
people unnecessarily. And I went down a rabbit hole one time.
I was like, why am I here again? The Brooklyn
came out, I was like, where do you live? And
I'll get on a plate I do.
Speaker 3 (19:52):
Oh boyd. Next question, ever borrow cable Back in the day.
Speaker 8 (20:00):
I wasn't a cable borrower, but I was definitely the
guy that bought the movies from the hustlemn hustleman at
the barbershop. That's how I saw taken by the way
I saw taking like two years for everybody else because
I was in a barbershop Yo, this movie is hot.
Speaker 4 (20:14):
I was like, really it still had like the numbers
on the side.
Speaker 3 (20:17):
Oh wow, but wait, but wait, remember when you were
watch a movie and you see people like hands the
shadow people walking.
Speaker 4 (20:26):
Back lord again. You know, you know community, you know,
if you know.
Speaker 3 (20:32):
Saying what up son in a professional setting.
Speaker 8 (20:34):
Not necessarily that phrase, but for for example, yesterday we
had a call of where where they were playing a
new record by a new artist, not a new artist,
actually a legendary artist.
Speaker 4 (20:46):
And and l A.
Speaker 8 (20:47):
Read was the was the person that was presiding over
the call. And that's my guy, so you know, so
he's hello Tom, Hello Bob, what up?
Speaker 1 (20:55):
Doc?
Speaker 4 (20:58):
My god?
Speaker 8 (20:58):
You know, because it's a it's a respect and comfort thing,
and it's a cultural thing. And I think late radio
is liberal enough where people understood and they don't really,
you know.
Speaker 4 (21:08):
Feel a way about it.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
Keep Tien's year round just in case. Yes I do too.
But now I see a lot of young people wearing
a ten wrinkles.
Speaker 4 (21:19):
You clean your sneakers, they never get dirty. My team
looks at me like I'm crazy. I'm wearing my sneakers dirty.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
Right, you'll give me some cleaning.
Speaker 5 (21:30):
Changing the station as soon as the DJ starts.
Speaker 8 (21:33):
Talking, I don't because I probably want to know what
they're talking, what they're talking about. But I've seen it
done as a passenger in a car. They might not
might not like a person's voice, or they know the
commercials are coming.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
So I never change it because of DJ is talking.
Really no, because I want to hear whatever the advertisement is.
As a business owner, you know how they reading it.
What's the energy?
Speaker 8 (21:58):
Who was your favorite DJ in New York grown? It
was definitely It's been on for a long time. Yeah, yeah,
I was a little before that, so I was a
Frankie crocker guy.
Speaker 5 (22:06):
And listening to albums from start to finish.
Speaker 8 (22:11):
It's been it's been a minute. My favorite music genre
is nineties R and D. That's when I, you know,
was doing my thing, and I think it's the best music.
And we're interestingly enough, we're finding that the younger audience
really loves nineties R and B. They do, and so
we're starting to program it into more of our stations.
(22:32):
So back then, I would listen to an entire album.
Wanted to hear what Keith sweat or Babyface or and
and and they made albums like I think a lot
of the music today is made for streaming. Whereas they
made albums, they made bodies of work had to you know,
listen to and I would go listen to find the
slow jam to play on my show.
Speaker 5 (22:54):
So and then they all had stories like and they
flowed exactly.
Speaker 3 (23:09):
Man, man, it is not like that.
Speaker 8 (23:15):
I'm not laughing, Hey, Keith, Keith, I'm not laughing with Shanty.
Speaker 4 (23:20):
I'm not laughing at you.
Speaker 3 (23:23):
But he's laughing at you. And I want to what
the mine? And that's how it sund But haven't cut close?
Was they were it?
Speaker 1 (23:36):
Have you?
Speaker 4 (23:37):
Have you seen Keith and concert here in l A's
here at least once a year.
Speaker 3 (23:40):
Can you? Can you?
Speaker 4 (23:42):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (23:42):
In contact so we could go and meet him.
Speaker 4 (23:44):
Yeah, Keith is Keith has a syndicated showing. I heard
he's our slow jam guy. Oh yeah.
Speaker 8 (23:49):
So when it came time for syndication, which was the
direction that I had always wanted to go to, my
boss told me, so, you want to be the syndicated
quiet storm guy, or you want to be the guy
that hires a syndicated Quite so, I think I want
to be the guy to hire Yeah, right right, Keith.
Speaker 3 (24:05):
And he's been doing it now for twenty My imitation
is spot on, though I am not if that's not
how he sounds.
Speaker 8 (24:15):
Last question participated in the disrespect of Keith's.
Speaker 3 (24:21):
This Okay, and I do listen.
Speaker 4 (24:23):
I do listen to.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
I do listen to albums start to finish, but I
skip songs just like if it don't hit right away,
I'm gonna go, yeah, the next one, and then I'll
circle back. Yeah, okay, I do both. I tend to
listen all the way through. Okay.
Speaker 5 (24:40):
Last question, believe that no party is a real party
unless the DJ runs it back five times.
Speaker 3 (24:50):
Yeah, yeah, absolutely. I remember being in the club club
okay and fifty song which it's your birthday, birthday, just drop.
They played that nine in a row, and each time
it got more and more and more intent. Nobody stopped dancing.
(25:13):
It just kept going and going and going.
Speaker 8 (25:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (25:17):
I think the last time but you knew a song
I was coming with.
Speaker 8 (25:22):
I think the last time I've experienced that was when
Not Like Us So Not Like Us came out May
fourth of last year.
Speaker 4 (25:29):
It's still a power on our station. It won't it
won't go away.
Speaker 8 (25:36):
But like maybe let's say June July of last year
in the club and it was NonStop insane.
Speaker 4 (25:44):
Wait dog, you're still going to the club embarrassingly?
Speaker 8 (25:49):
Did you notice how our voice? Did you hear the indictment?
Because I honestly feel a way when I'm in a
club now like why.
Speaker 4 (26:01):
But occasionally, why do you have to go?
Speaker 3 (26:03):
Why do you have to go? Business?
Speaker 1 (26:05):

Speaker 8 (26:05):
We had our tenth birthday party and so I was
in the club. I think I thought I went bowling.

No, no, no, it was it was.
Speaker 8 (26:14):
It was in a club called West eight here in
La So I was in there and as I was in,
I was like, why why this club?
Speaker 4 (26:20):
Because I have to be here? And then uh. And then.
Speaker 8 (26:25):
The last time I was in we were in Vegas,
I think Big Boy and I went to go see
a fight and they took us to the club after
and I was in the club and I was like,
why am I you?
Speaker 3 (26:35):
Were you in the club with the chicken wings or
were you in the club with just the music?
Speaker 8 (26:38):
I was in the club with the people that were
significantly younger than me. Nobody was dancing. They're just sitting
there like bobbing ahead.
Speaker 4 (26:47):
No food, No, there was, it was beverages. I mean
it was alcohol.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
And do you know what I just asked you? Yeah,

not just in a functional way. And what I mean
by functional.
Speaker 3 (00:35):
When I was growing up in upstate New York, I
had to listen to the radio for school closures. So
I wake up very early in the morning and the
radio would be playing and it would say like, hey,
Orange County close for two hours, Putnam County School closed
for one hour, depending on where you lived and how
(00:57):
much snow you got, that is, determine it on if
you were going to school or not. So during the
you know, the announcements of school closures was songs playing, right,
you had to get the music and then you had
to get the information. So as long as I have
(01:20):
been alive, the radio has just been on, like on
in the background. That's how I got my information from
a local perspective, like hey, these events are happening. A
concert is happening and it's never gone away until streaming.
Speaker 4 (01:40):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
CDs though also impacted radio right early on because you
could play your record and not have to wait for
someone to play it for you to get it. But
it was always a vibe though, when you had the
radio playing on the summer days. Oh yeah, right. So
today we have a guess that is a legend in

you know here, Like I spent a lot of time

Anyway, Long story short, when I got to Saint Louis
in UH in eighty nine, there was a gentleman who
was in my position. He oversaw the UH four hip
hop stations we had in Saint Louis and Houston, and
he told my program directed that there were no black
people named Dave because the first of all, he doesn't
(11:07):
sound like he's from Saint Louis. He sounds like he's
from New York. And his name is Dave. Like, you
got to come up with another name. So they gave
me a list.
Speaker 3 (11:14):
I know your name isn't Doc, it's Dave David. Well,
we couldn't find Dave. Dave, Oh you don't look like it.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
So he.
Speaker 8 (11:24):
Gave me a list that I had to pick from.
I was so offended that this white guy was telling
me how I had to name myself. I think the
last name was the doctor Dave Winter, and I was like,
let's just do doc. You know, just grabbed the paper
walked out.
Speaker 3 (11:37):

Speaker 4 (11:50):
My wife calls me Dave.
Speaker 3 (11:51):
Yeah, my mom calls me Dave, but not people in
the industry, they call you Doc.

Speaker 8 (13:16):
I've had people, some of my people have worked with me,
say yeah, I just came across hip TikTok. We've reinvigorated
records that I've heard on TikTok like Miguel's record short
thing somehow on TikTok just came back.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
And so, okay, I have not discovered music on TikTok
im And honestly, I am not on TikTok. I'm more
of an instagrammer, and I to be honest, I find
it somewhat silly to do some of the.
Speaker 8 (13:51):
Yeah you know, you know Instagram has becoming Facebook, which
is TikTok.
Speaker 5 (13:56):
Is becoming Okay, I really want to know this one.
Never approve a song you didn't like because you knew
it would chart.
Speaker 4 (14:03):
I'm not. I'm not a dictator.
Speaker 8 (14:05):
So I work with other people and from time to
time that someone will say I think this is smash.
And you know, some of my some of my team
are younger than me, so I sometimes I give them
the benefit of a doubt and put a record in
and it might may or may not work, And I'm like, yeah,
I told you crap, you know, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (14:24):
Okay, use the term Brooklyn.
Speaker 4 (14:30):
Yeah, what about.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
You have my question down? You took it out. I
didn't see that question.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
What was it?
Speaker 3 (14:40):
The term Brooklyn whenever necessary or to make your point,
I'm from Brooklyn. You know because I'm from Brooklyn.
Speaker 8 (14:47):
You know, yeah, I said, but I say it so
I didn't realize how often I say it, to the
point where a lot of my team will say, it's dog,
he's from Brooklyn. But there is a thing, you know,
if you know, I mean, we grew up at a
time where you know, you had to you know, you
(15:08):
couldn't just walk the streets, and and you know you
had sometimes you had to.
Speaker 4 (15:14):
You had to have that thing.
Speaker 8 (15:15):
And if you come from Brooklyn, you know, and and
I've managed over the years to be able to, you know,
kind of control that better case.
Speaker 4 (15:26):
In point.
Speaker 8 (15:28):
Richie Harmon sixth grade, I like Lisa. He likes Lisa.
He's my guy. He calls me the N word.
Speaker 4 (15:40):
Brooklyn and.
Speaker 8 (15:44):
Knocked his ass and he rocked, And sister Carmely came
up to me and said, look, Dave, you're going to
be called that name your entire life, so you need
to get accustomed to it.
Speaker 4 (15:53):
And I looked at her like, no, I guess I'm
not so fast forward.
Speaker 8 (15:59):
I'm in college playing basketball against I think we're in Alaska,
playing against the universe of Alaska.
Speaker 4 (16:05):
I'm wearing this kid out.
Speaker 8 (16:07):
He starts talking crap, and I'm like, dude, I got
like twenty points, you got like five, what are you
talking about? Calls me the N word? What I get
thrown out the game? My coach comes up to me
and says, so, what happens? They called me the N word?
So he punched him. I said, yeah, so now you're
not playing and he's playing. Yeah, life lesson Yeah yeah yeah.
(16:30):
And so fast forward working walking with my wife in Orlando.
She's biracial, she's black and French, and we're going into
going into a restaurant. This woman's walking towards us and
she's like, look at these two niggas, and my wife
just keeps walking. Didn't even phase her. And I saw
(16:55):
the power of taking the power out of that word. Wow,
And we've subsequently been called that since then. I've taken
that posture and almost to the point where the person
is confused, like don't for the reason? Yeah, yeah, like
what's going on? And we just walked by like we
took the power out the words. So that things coming
(17:17):
full circle for me. Wow, And you know, I've learned
a valuable lesson that you know, you got to control
of Brooklyn and take the power of the words.
Speaker 4 (17:27):
But when I say Brooklyn, it's because because you let
them know. Ye, sometimes somebody tries.
Speaker 8 (17:35):
I just.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
Try.
Speaker 3 (17:39):
And when I say I'm from New York, I don't
actually just what I mean.
Speaker 8 (17:43):
But you know, coming from New York, there is an
inner thing because of because you just can't walk on
the subway in New York with oh, I'm a tourist, look,
because you'll get punked, you know.
Speaker 4 (17:55):
And so there's that thing that you have to have.
Speaker 3 (17:57):
But I also feel like it represents like a great
to right, like working real hard.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
Right.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
It's a hustle mentality. Don't don't mess with us because
we're from here. Yep.
Speaker 4 (18:07):
Absolutely, I don't try it, you know, and don't try.
Speaker 3 (18:10):
I think I hear you. Okay, go to the next place.
Speaker 4 (18:15):
What I'm talking about.

Think some of these media personalities need media training.
Speaker 3 (18:53):
Yeah, I would say not just the media personalities, to
anyone that is camera facing. I think that there are
way used to frame things.
Speaker 4 (19:01):
Do you read comments?
Speaker 3 (19:02):
Good question, dumble, because I'll get my feelings. But I
read a lot of comments on videos where I'm like,
I am I'm not a person to say mean things
about someone, but I sometimes think them. I just want
(19:24):
to know somebody else is thinking them too, and that's
why I may read someone else's comments. But on my comments, yeah,
I engage.
Speaker 4 (19:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (19:34):
I hate to see when people like just say hurtful things. Yeah,
people unnecessarily. And I went down a rabbit hole one time.
I was like, why am I here again? The Brooklyn
came out, I was like, where do you live? And
I'll get on a plate I do.
Speaker 3 (19:52):
Oh boyd. Next question, ever borrow cable Back in the day.

Speaker 1 (20:55):
Doc?
Speaker 4 (20:58):
My god?
Speaker 8 (20:58):
You know, because it's a it's a respect and comfort thing,
and it's a cultural thing. And I think late radio
is liberal enough where people understood and they don't really,
you know.
Speaker 4 (21:08):
Feel a way about it.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
Keep Tien's year round just in case. Yes I do too.
But now I see a lot of young people wearing
a ten wrinkles.
Speaker 4 (21:19):
You clean your sneakers, they never get dirty. My team
looks at me like I'm crazy. I'm wearing my sneakers dirty.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
Right, you'll give me some cleaning.
Speaker 5 (21:30):
Changing the station as soon as the DJ starts.
Speaker 8 (21:33):
Talking, I don't because I probably want to know what
they're talking, what they're talking about. But I've seen it
done as a passenger in a car. They might not
might not like a person's voice, or they know the
commercials are coming.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
So I never change it because of DJ is talking.
Really no, because I want to hear whatever the advertisement is.
As a business owner, you know how they reading it.
What's the energy?
Speaker 8 (21:58):
Who was your favorite DJ in New York grown? It
was definitely It's been on for a long time. Yeah, yeah,
I was a little before that, so I was a
Frankie crocker guy.
Speaker 5 (22:06):
And listening to albums from start to finish.
Speaker 8 (22:11):
It's been it's been a minute. My favorite music genre
is nineties R and D. That's when I, you know,
was doing my thing, and I think it's the best music.
And we're interestingly enough, we're finding that the younger audience
really loves nineties R and B. They do, and so
we're starting to program it into more of our stations.
(22:32):
So back then, I would listen to an entire album.
Wanted to hear what Keith sweat or Babyface or and
and and they made albums like I think a lot
of the music today is made for streaming. Whereas they
made albums, they made bodies of work had to you know,
listen to and I would go listen to find the
slow jam to play on my show.
Speaker 5 (22:54):
So and then they all had stories like and they
flowed exactly.
Speaker 3 (23:09):
Man, man, it is not like that.
Speaker 8 (23:15):
I'm not laughing, Hey, Keith, Keith, I'm not laughing with Shanty.
Speaker 4 (23:20):
I'm not laughing at you.
Speaker 3 (23:23):
But he's laughing at you. And I want to what
the mine? And that's how it sund But haven't cut close?
Was they were it?
Speaker 1 (23:36):
Have you?
Speaker 4 (23:37):
Have you seen Keith and concert here in l A's
here at least once a year.
Speaker 3 (23:40):
Can you? Can you?
Speaker 4 (23:42):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (23:42):
In contact so we could go and meet him.
Speaker 4 (23:44):
Yeah, Keith is Keith has a syndicated showing. I heard
he's our slow jam guy. Oh yeah.
Speaker 8 (23:49):
So when it came time for syndication, which was the
direction that I had always wanted to go to, my
boss told me, so, you want to be the syndicated
quiet storm guy, or you want to be the guy
that hires a syndicated Quite so, I think I want
to be the guy to hire Yeah, right right, Keith.
Speaker 3 (24:05):
And he's been doing it now for twenty My imitation
is spot on, though I am not if that's not
how he sounds.
Speaker 8 (24:15):
Last question participated in the disrespect of Keith's.
Speaker 3 (24:21):
This Okay, and I do listen.
Speaker 4 (24:23):
I do listen to.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
I do listen to albums start to finish, but I
skip songs just like if it don't hit right away,
I'm gonna go, yeah, the next one, and then I'll
circle back. Yeah, okay, I do both. I tend to
listen all the way through. Okay.
Speaker 5 (24:40):
Last question, believe that no party is a real party
unless the DJ runs it back five times.
Speaker 3 (24:50):
Yeah, yeah, absolutely. I remember being in the club club
okay and fifty song which it's your birthday, birthday, just drop.
They played that nine in a row, and each time
it got more and more and more intent. Nobody stopped dancing.
(25:13):
It just kept going and going and going.
Speaker 8 (25:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (25:17):
I think the last time but you knew a song
I was coming with.
Speaker 8 (25:22):
I think the last time I've experienced that was when
Not Like Us So Not Like Us came out May
fourth of last year.
Speaker 4 (25:29):
It's still a power on our station. It won't it
won't go away.
Speaker 8 (25:36):
But like maybe let's say June July of last year
in the club and it was NonStop insane.
Speaker 4 (25:44):
Wait dog, you're still going to the club embarrassingly?
Speaker 8 (25:49):
Did you notice how our voice? Did you hear the indictment?
Because I honestly feel a way when I'm in a
club now like why.
Speaker 4 (26:01):
But occasionally, why do you have to go?
Speaker 3 (26:03):
Why do you have to go? Business?
Speaker 1 (26:05):
Like?
Speaker 8 (26:05):
We had our tenth birthday party and so I was
in the club. I think I thought I went bowling.
Speaker 4 (26:12):
No, no, no, it was it was.
Speaker 8 (26:14):
It was in a club called West eight here in
La So I was in there and as I was in,
I was like, why why this club?
Speaker 4 (26:20):
Because I have to be here? And then uh. And then.
Speaker 8 (26:25):
The last time I was in we were in Vegas,
I think Big Boy and I went to go see
a fight and they took us to the club after
and I was in the club and I was like,
why am I you?
Speaker 3 (26:35):
Were you in the club with the chicken wings or
were you in the club with just the music?
Speaker 8 (26:38):
I was in the club with the people that were
significantly younger than me. Nobody was dancing. They're just sitting
there like bobbing ahead.
Speaker 4 (26:47):
No food, No, there was, it was beverages. I mean
it was alcohol.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
And do you know what I just asked you? Yeah,
I didn't hear it.
Speaker 4 (27:00):
Not allowing you to pull me into you drop a
flag or something on.
Speaker 3 (27:12):
What's next for you? Your stations, your career, what's next?
Speaker 8 (27:18):
It's uh, it's it's uh. I see the I see
the light at the end of the tunnel. And I
had a son very young. What am I saying? I
have a very young son that I had at a
uh old age, at an older age, and so I
