But I love how like these these real situations become
songs and they become you know, these these offerings for
the world.
Speaker 5 (08:26):
Man, definitely special thing. Yes, it's honestly my favorite thing.
Like anytime I go through something, I'm like, my advantage

I don't because I genuinely feel like I should be
receiving that love like it doesn't. It's not off putting
for me. But that's that's the problem. That's a red flag. Like,
of course you're love bombing me. Of course you're buying
me nice things and being like I'm me. But then
it's like no, like you did it for the wrong reason,
and like I'm defin That's the lesson I had to

and he seems like he's a very fun guy. And
he and he's he's inspired. He's inspired, which you appreciate.
And he works hard and plays hard. What do you
love most about Destin?
Speaker 6 (11:18):
I think Destin's ability to just create very purely, Like
he's never as far as artist side goes, he's never
like thinking about monetization or things he has to do
to be robotic in this industry. He's genuinely just creating,
(11:38):
really really really purely. It's really natural. He opens his
mouth and like greatness just appears. But as a person,
I think his ability to light every single person up
around him is so genuine. I think everybody's favorite thing
about him is that he can make everybody smile. He
walks in the room and shifts the energy everywhere every
room he steps into.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
So yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 6 (12:00):
He's just he's a ball of light and we're all
super grateful for him and super proud.

That your group him into that, that's it.

Speaker 3 (18:00):
I don't know. Probably good, I hope.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
When you work with people and you're thinking about these collaborations,
are you not only thinking about just getting that person
in the studio, but what you can learn from them?
Speaker 5 (18:11):
At the same time A thousand percent when I work
with people that I'm like, that I admire because usually
I just work with like my friends, like even like
with Kaylannie, like I write, I but the beginning of
my career in writing and like doing stuff, I would
just go to the studio with her and she would
bring me and I would tell her like I want
to write, like I want to be a songwriter. I
(18:31):
thought I wanted to be a songwriter for a really
long time, and she would just bring me to the
studio and I would learn so much by just being
in the room watching her. So yeah, I definitely learned
so much by being in the studio. People like that
are established in.
Speaker 3 (18:48):
Like, yeah, so what made you want to transition out
from that songwriting mindset to just becoming your own artist.
Speaker 5 (18:54):
I made my first EP, Colorway, and I didn't want
anybody else to sing it because they were my personal stories,
and then yeah.
Speaker 3 (19:03):
I just put it out.
Speaker 5 (19:05):
I was kind of I'm honestly really like super privileged
because like I've known my manager David since I was
like fifteen, before I even thought about making music, just
being friends with Kaylene, so I kind of like had
like it was accessible to just be like, Okay, I
want to put out an EP.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
I'm like David, you have the tools around you.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
Yeah, I had the tools for sure.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
Yeah, the people around you. That's great.
Speaker 1 (19:31):
And Kaylinnie had a similar start like that, right, like
where she was very young and you know, people helped
her out and you know there was some people like
Nick Cannon who didn't want nothing from her but her to.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
Succeed exactly right.
Speaker 3 (19:43):
Yeah, it's such a such a blessing to have people
that like can help you and assist you and like
bringing what you see to life, you know.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
Yeah, oh that's awesome and keep them around. Yeah, as
long as you can forever, definitely, And you need.
Speaker 2 (19:56):
To be kind. Work hard or is that a thing?
Is it work harder, work smarter for you? Smarter? Smarter? Yeah?
Who wants to work hard? Right? I get it? Yeah?
Things are too hard? I I don't know.
Speaker 3 (20:12):
I check out a little bit.
Speaker 2 (20:13):
M hm.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
I always say that, Like even just.
Speaker 5 (20:17):
Like writing a song, Like if a song is too
hard to write, sometimes I'm just like, Okay, cool, I
got it.
Speaker 3 (20:23):
I'll try again and I'll start another one. Yeah, definitely smarter.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
Wow, you're gonna keep your hair living like that exactly, No,
for sure, man, y'all. Congratulations love on digital, my guy.

songs and they become you know, these these offerings for
the world.
Speaker 5 (08:26):

I don't because I genuinely feel like I should be
receiving that love like it doesn't. It's not off putting
for me. But that's that's the problem. That's a red flag. Like,
of course you're love bombing me. Of course you're buying
me nice things and being like I'm me. But then
it's like no, like you did it for the wrong reason,
and like I'm defin That's the lesson I had to
(09:55):

And you know, he's he seems like a very special person,
and he seems like he's a very fun guy. And
he and he's he's inspired. He's inspired, which you appreciate.
And he works hard and plays hard. What do you
love most about Destin?
Speaker 6 (11:18):
I think Destin's ability to just create very purely, Like
he's never as far as artist side goes, he's never
like thinking about monetization or things he has to do
to be robotic in this industry. He's genuinely just creating,
(11:38):
really really really purely. It's really natural. He opens his
mouth and like greatness just appears. But as a person,
I think his ability to light every single person up
around him is so genuine. I think everybody's favorite thing
about him is that he can make everybody smile. He
walks in the room and shifts the energy everywhere every
room he steps into.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
So yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 6 (12:00):
He's just he's a ball of light and we're all
super grateful for him and super proud.

I've talked to him about like prior engagement.
Speaker 3 (16:44):
Okay, okay, I talked to him about ultimatum.
Speaker 4 (16:45):
Was like we should do ultimatum.
Speaker 2 (16:46):
He's like, I'm kind of down.
Speaker 5 (16:47):

She wanted to go on that ship, right right, that's right.
That your group him into that, that's it.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
Is there a wish list of people you want to

Two ship ray J spied. Have you all listened to jool?

Speaker 3 (17:39):
I loved how the creator I would cry, you would
make you cry? Yeah he would Yeah that would be
the time.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
No, and then he would it didn't be amazing. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
Yeah, I love Frank Ocean of course.
Speaker 2 (17:53):

Speaker 3 (17:54):
I'm so inspired by them.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
Yeah, man, what would that sound like?
Speaker 3 (18:00):
I don't know. Probably good, I hope.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
When you work with people and you're thinking about these collaborations,
are you not only thinking about just getting that person
in the studio, but what you can learn from them?
Speaker 5 (18:11):
At the same time A thousand percent when I work
with people that I'm like, that I admire because usually
I just work with like my friends, like even like
with Kaylannie, like I write, I but the beginning of
my career in writing and like doing stuff, I would
just go to the studio with her and she would
bring me and I would tell her like I want
to write, like I want to be a songwriter. I
(18:31):
thought I wanted to be a songwriter for a really
long time, and she would just bring me to the
studio and I would learn so much by just being
in the room watching her. So yeah, I definitely learned
so much by being in the studio. People like that
are established in.
Speaker 3 (18:48):
Like, yeah, so what made you want to transition out
from that songwriting mindset to just becoming your own artist.
Speaker 5 (18:54):
I made my first EP, Colorway, and I didn't want
anybody else to sing it because they were my personal stories,
and then yeah.
Speaker 3 (19:03):
I just put it out.
Speaker 5 (19:05):
I was kind of I'm honestly really like super privileged
because like I've known my manager David since I was
like fifteen, before I even thought about making music, just
being friends with Kaylene, so I kind of like had
like it was accessible to just be like, Okay, I
want to put out an EP.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
I'm like David, you have the tools around you.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
Yeah, I had the tools for sure.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
Yeah, the people around you. That's great.
Speaker 1 (19:31):
And Kaylinnie had a similar start like that, right, like
where she was very young and you know, people helped
her out and you know there was some people like
Nick Cannon who didn't want nothing from her but her to.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
Succeed exactly right.
Speaker 3 (19:43):
Yeah, it's such a such a blessing to have people
that like can help you and assist you and like
bringing what you see to life, you know.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
Yeah, oh that's awesome and keep them around. Yeah, as
long as you can forever, definitely, And you need.
Speaker 2 (19:56):
To be kind. Work hard or is that a thing?
Is it work harder, work smarter for you? Smarter? Smarter? Yeah?
Who wants to work hard? Right? I get it? Yeah?
Things are too hard? I I don't know.
Speaker 3 (20:12):
I check out a little bit.
Speaker 2 (20:13):
M hm.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
I always say that, Like even just.
Speaker 5 (20:17):
Like writing a song, Like if a song is too
hard to write, sometimes I'm just like, Okay, cool, I
got it.
Speaker 3 (20:23):
I'll try again and I'll start another one. Yeah, definitely smarter.
Speaker 1 (20:28):

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
