No, it took three years of my life. This was
my longest, strongest child to bear.

Yeah, I was gonna say, because you know, there there
was some time, you know, and life was life and
things were happening.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
Life was life. But I think that like I'm an
artist and I'm so like fortunate that I get to

life and then like turn it into music like what
a what a blessing? Yeah, and and and do it well.

It's it's iconic, like it's a dream. Actually, I went
to the premiere and I took a picture with every
ways is in the building. I was, I was trying
to collect Waynes like Pokemon, there we go.

reworking of bitch right and you made it your own.
The title track off the album right fun song to make.
I mean that was good time.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Yeah, that was that was fun. You could feel that,
Like I feel like if there was a new like
living single, that would be the theme song because it
kind of had that same little mounce. And you know,
Meredith Brooks wrote the original bitch and so that was easy,
like and I'm just so grateful that she cleared that
and then having Missy Elliott She's a bitch, Like, I
just feel blessed crazy.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
Because she got a song called bitch right. She brought
that energy and.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
We're like the Charlie's Angels of bitch. But I thought about.
Speaker 6 (03:17):
This whole album is like owning that term and not
making it negative and not and just being like, yeah,
I'm that bitch, like I can be that bitch. And
one of my favorite songs off the entire album is
Don't Make Me Love You, And I was telling that
it literally brings the combination of Michael Jackson, Prince and
(03:38):
Queen for me.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
Wow, Queen that's my first time hearing that one. That
they're one of my favorite But I think that Queen's
one of the might be the greatest rock band of
all time. And I know that some people might tussle
with me, but I think Queen really takes it because
they're just like hit for hit. Yeah, no, missus.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
Like I'm telling you, I was just like, this is
just Queen.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
Thank you. Also a big queen, Tina Turner, that was
a huge inspiration for that song too, So thank you
for that.
Speaker 3 (04:08):
That's right.
Speaker 4 (04:09):
So whose hair is this? Is that a personal Is
that a personal feeling?
Speaker 1 (04:15):

I wrote it back in November, because.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
Let's get it.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
Okay, Yes, I found it. I'm crazy, so that let's
start with that. I'm crazy. But I found some hair
and I accused, you know, wrongly accused. And then I
saw one of my old wigs and I did the
forensics on it, you know, you know the forensics. I
(04:41):
did the like the dot testing and the microphone and
it was from one of my wigs.
Speaker 3 (04:47):

Speaker 3 (05:45):
Is it my favorite?
Speaker 2 (05:47):
Get the forensics? I mean, like I'm a scorpiod.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
So, oh my goodness, this room is just synergized because
y'all are y'all are sister signs Scorfield. My god, oh great.
Speaker 6 (06:01):
Ah they get married in about a month.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Oh my god. Water and water intense, emotional, beautiful though. Yeah,
I'm not mad at it. What's you? What are you?
Mm hmm y She like Leo, believes in it. Every

that's pretty exactly.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Oh my god, the ultimate Leo. What about you? Wow?
So y'all are the besides you and you sorry, the
fixed signs of the zodiac. Okay, we can talk about
that all day, but let's move on.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Toast for the first time. What would you say to like,
what was some work you had to do to get
to that place?
Speaker 1 (06:55):
I said, that will be that bitch, and I am
that I would be healed, and I am. I said
I would take care of myself more and I did.
I think it just it. It took a lot of
like getting the fuck up out of your funk, out
of your sadness, out of your dark place. And sometimes
(07:18):
even when you're not sad and you just be stuck
in that bed and you don't want to move, it's
being like get up. It's the will You remember a
kill Bill when she was like, wiggle your big toe,
like you gotta wiggle your big toe, And I think
that that's what that line is all about. I wiggled
the fuck out of this big toe. Yeah, I really did.
(07:39):
The baby, both of them was wiggling.
Speaker 6 (07:42):
You get to that point and you realize that like
that's when you're just energy. Your mind shift, your mindset shifts,
and it's just like, okay, like the big things that
were really like knocking on me and really like affecting
me personally, it isn't all that anymore.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
Yeah, it becomes the past. Isn't that crazy? So when
you look back, it's like, oh, wait, we think about
remember when you were another toe analogy? Remember when you
stubbed yo toe? Do you right? You don't know because
it's the past now. But when you stub yo toe,
that shit hurt like a motherfucker. You forget it and
forget about it.
Speaker 4 (08:20):
Yeah, when it passes, the pain passes, just like everything else.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
Amen, good morning.
Speaker 4 (08:25):
Why did we end the project with good morning? Because
I why not start with it?
Speaker 3 (08:30):
Right?
Speaker 1 (08:30):
I don't know that everybody. Everybody says that, and I
think I wanted there. It's kind of deep like so
the first technically the first track after a toast, it
says the thing about depression, you think your life is over,
I say, they don't happy to be. And then on
the final track good morning, I said life didn't end
when you was tripping on the proof And I wanted
(08:53):
to leave listeners with kind of like a Okay, you
went through it all. Now wake up and let's have
a great You have an opportunity to have a great
day unless move forward. I don't like fade outs and music.
I never do fade outs, always end, you know. But
I chose to do a long fade out on good
Morning because I just wanted it to keep going and
keep going. I wanted your good day to continue on
(09:15):
and on and on.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
I guess yes, you in that fading m h.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
And it's like to be continued. Okay, hello, bitch, is.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
So correct me if I'm wrong.
Speaker 4 (09:33):
You know a lot of people have a lot to
say about Lizzo, but that phone ain't never been dry
them DM's never been dry.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
Yeah, phone never been dry, honey, bank account never been dry,
never that like, you know, But I think people just
like to talk. I think I'm very easy to talk about.
I'm a very hot topic, you know. I've always been
ever since I stepped on the scene like that, I've
been that girl. I'd rather be talked about than boring
(10:00):
or forgotten or forgotten.
Speaker 3 (10:02):
When they not talking, that's when you got to work, exactly.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
You don't have haters. You're not popping, honey. I must
really be popping.
Speaker 3 (10:11):
God, God damn.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
But it's like, but you also have a lot of lovers.
They're just not as loud. And that's the thing that
you have to remember. Like, if you got a lot
of haters, that means you have a lot of people
who love you too. And that's to anybody in the
world who's hearing this message right now, you got to
remember that they're just not as loud as the hate, Okay.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
Or is that something that you kind of had to.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
Grow into what hated.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
I'm just basically like blocking out hate and like accepting
the love.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
No, I don't think I was always consciously this way.
I think when I was younger, it comes from like
being teased, being a little nerdy, being a little bullied.
But also I think I was like kind of in
my own little fantasy world, so I didn't notice it,
and I think I tap into those same mechanisms now,
but I'm just conscious of it. I'll be like, man,
you're not even real, Like you're not real. Like, actually,
(11:02):
now my new thing is dead Internet. It's abot.
Speaker 4 (11:06):
It's a bot profile, no profile.
Speaker 3 (11:10):
Pick obviously just to pick that. Is it necessarily that?
Speaker 1 (11:13):
Yeah, I'm like you're not a real person. Why am
I listening to this?
Speaker 3 (11:16):
This isn't real and focus on it.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
No, not at all.
Speaker 6 (11:19):
And we also always have the control now, like and
I think that's something that I've learned recently too.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
It's just like knowing that you control what you see.
It's just like it's look, I can spend my time
on this and.
Speaker 6 (11:31):
Really harp on it, or I could just move on
to have a great day and by.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
Me, that algorithm is something else that me and that
algorithm was tussling for a minute, but we're good now
because you do have to control the algorithm or the
algorithm will control you. And it's like, so I've definitely
gotten I've switched it around now so that I see
positive things about myself. I see positive things about my album.
(11:56):
I see things that my fans are saying. And I
also feel like I am now super into the algorithm.
Like everybody hit me up and be like gramcying you,
every rocket get rid of you. I'm like, exactly exactly,
I made the algorithm my bit. It's working all part
of the master player.
Speaker 4 (12:15):
But that's what we you know, that's what you were
trying to break through, right and you were trying to
kill that algorithm.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
Yeah, kills.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
You want to be kind of annoying, You got to
be kind of annoying to.
Speaker 3 (12:24):
Cringey and whatever and self selfish, good thing.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
I am those things naturally. No, not selfish, not selfish,
a little cringey.
Speaker 3 (12:34):
Who cares?
Speaker 4 (12:35):
We all are if you're a human being, you have
an ounce of it.
Speaker 3 (12:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
Yes, everybody's trying to be cool all the time, Like, bitch.
Speaker 3 (12:42):

A black girl in Houston playing the flute. Yeah, no,
I've never been cool.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
Were you bullied because of the flute?
Speaker 1 (12:54):

I was more bully because of like anime. Like I

that happened to you too. But see, oh you're like,

Yes, how manifested that? I mean and the Waynes family
he did.
Speaker 4 (02:00):
But their soundtracks have always been fired for every movie.
And now you're a part of that body of work.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
It's it's iconic, like it's a dream. Actually, I went
to the premiere and I took a picture with every
ways is in the building. I was, I was trying
to collect Waynes like Pokemon, there we go.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
Your camera roll must be crazy.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
No, I was like, where David Jr? Where Marlin? Where
Shine's your favorite? Oh that's that's evil. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
That's why I took a picture with every single one right.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
Literally, I think Marlon I'm the coolest.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
With He was just here yesterday. Man, that's our guy.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
But Damon Wayne is Junior is so funny, so funny.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
The spawn is hilarious. Yeah, right, Yo, when you're you're
reworking of bitch right and you made it your own.
The title track off the album right fun song to make.
I mean that was good time.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Yeah, that was that was fun. You could feel that,
Like I feel like if there was a new like
living single, that would be the theme song because it
kind of had that same little mounce. And you know,
Meredith Brooks wrote the original bitch and so that was easy,
like and I'm just so grateful that she cleared that
and then having Missy Elliott She's a bitch, Like, I
just feel blessed crazy.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
Because she got a song called bitch right. She brought
that energy and.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
We're like the Charlie's Angels of bitch. But I thought about.
Speaker 6 (03:17):
This whole album is like owning that term and not
making it negative and not and just being like, yeah,
I'm that bitch, like I can be that bitch. And
one of my favorite songs off the entire album is
Don't Make Me Love You, And I was telling that
it literally brings the combination of Michael Jackson, Prince and
(03:38):
Queen for me.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
Wow, Queen that's my first time hearing that one. That
they're one of my favorite But I think that Queen's
one of the might be the greatest rock band of
all time. And I know that some people might tussle
with me, but I think Queen really takes it because
they're just like hit for hit. Yeah, no, missus.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
Like I'm telling you, I was just like, this is
just Queen.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
Thank you. Also a big queen, Tina Turner, that was
a huge inspiration for that song too, So thank you
for that.
Speaker 3 (04:08):
That's right.
Speaker 4 (04:09):
So whose hair is this? Is that a personal Is
that a personal feeling?
Speaker 1 (04:15):
So that's the last song I wrote for this album.
I wrote it back in November, because.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
Let's get it.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
Okay, Yes, I found it. I'm crazy, so that let's
start with that. I'm crazy. But I found some hair
and I accused, you know, wrongly accused. And then I
saw one of my old wigs and I did the
forensics on it, you know, you know the forensics. I

it was from one of my wigs.

Oh my god, the ultimate Leo. What about you? Wow?
So y'all are the besides you and you sorry, the
fixed signs of the zodiac. Okay, we can talk about
that all day, but let's move on.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Toast for the first time. What would you say to like,
what was some work you had to do to get
to that place?
Speaker 1 (06:55):
I said, that will be that bitch, and I am
that I would be healed, and I am. I said
I would take care of myself more and I did.
I think it just it. It took a lot of
like getting the fuck up out of your funk, out
of your sadness, out of your dark place. And sometimes
(07:18):
even when you're not sad and you just be stuck
in that bed and you don't want to move, it's
being like get up. It's the will You remember a
kill Bill when she was like, wiggle your big toe,
like you gotta wiggle your big toe, And I think
that that's what that line is all about. I wiggled
the fuck out of this big toe. Yeah, I really did.
(07:39):
The baby, both of them was wiggling.
Speaker 6 (07:42):
You get to that point and you realize that like
that's when you're just energy. Your mind shift, your mindset shifts,
and it's just like, okay, like the big things that
were really like knocking on me and really like affecting
me personally, it isn't all that anymore.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
Yeah, it becomes the past. Isn't that crazy? So when
you look back, it's like, oh, wait, we think about
remember when you were another toe analogy? Remember when you
stubbed yo toe? Do you right? You don't know because
it's the past now. But when you stub yo toe,
that shit hurt like a motherfucker. You forget it and
forget about it.
Speaker 4 (08:20):
Yeah, when it passes, the pain passes, just like everything else.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
Amen, good morning.
Speaker 4 (08:25):
Why did we end the project with good morning? Because
I why not start with it?
Speaker 3 (08:30):
Right?
Speaker 1 (08:30):
I don't know that everybody. Everybody says that, and I
think I wanted there. It's kind of deep like so
the first technically the first track after a toast, it
says the thing about depression, you think your life is over,
I say, they don't happy to be. And then on
the final track good morning, I said life didn't end
when you was tripping on the proof And I wanted
(08:53):
to leave listeners with kind of like a Okay, you
went through it all. Now wake up and let's have
a great You have an opportunity to have a great
day unless move forward. I don't like fade outs and music.
I never do fade outs, always end, you know. But
I chose to do a long fade out on good
Morning because I just wanted it to keep going and
keep going. I wanted your good day to continue on
(09:15):
and on and on.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
I guess yes, you in that fading m h.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
And it's like to be continued. Okay, hello, bitch, is.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
So correct me if I'm wrong.
Speaker 4 (09:33):
You know a lot of people have a lot to
say about Lizzo, but that phone ain't never been dry
them DM's never been dry.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
Yeah, phone never been dry, honey, bank account never been dry,
never that like, you know, But I think people just
like to talk. I think I'm very easy to talk about.
I'm a very hot topic, you know. I've always been
ever since I stepped on the scene like that, I've
been that girl. I'd rather be talked about than boring
(10:00):
or forgotten or forgotten.
Speaker 3 (10:02):
When they not talking, that's when you got to work, exactly.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
You don't have haters. You're not popping, honey. I must
really be popping.
Speaker 3 (10:11):
God, God damn.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
But it's like, but you also have a lot of lovers.
They're just not as loud. And that's the thing that
you have to remember. Like, if you got a lot
of haters, that means you have a lot of people
who love you too. And that's to anybody in the
world who's hearing this message right now, you got to
remember that they're just not as loud as the hate, Okay.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
Or is that something that you kind of had to.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
Grow into what hated.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
I'm just basically like blocking out hate and like accepting
the love.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
No, I don't think I was always consciously this way.
I think when I was younger, it comes from like
being teased, being a little nerdy, being a little bullied.
But also I think I was like kind of in
my own little fantasy world, so I didn't notice it,
and I think I tap into those same mechanisms now,
but I'm just conscious of it. I'll be like, man,
you're not even real, Like you're not real. Like, actually,
(11:02):
now my new thing is dead Internet. It's abot.
Speaker 4 (11:06):
It's a bot profile, no profile.
Speaker 3 (11:10):
Pick obviously just to pick that. Is it necessarily that?
Speaker 1 (11:13):
Yeah, I'm like you're not a real person. Why am
I listening to this?
Speaker 3 (11:16):
This isn't real and focus on it.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
No, not at all.
Speaker 6 (11:19):
And we also always have the control now, like and
I think that's something that I've learned recently too.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
It's just like knowing that you control what you see.
It's just like it's look, I can spend my time
on this and.
Speaker 6 (11:31):
Really harp on it, or I could just move on
to have a great day and by.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
Me, that algorithm is something else that me and that
algorithm was tussling for a minute, but we're good now
because you do have to control the algorithm or the
algorithm will control you. And it's like, so I've definitely
gotten I've switched it around now so that I see
positive things about myself. I see positive things about my album.
(11:56):
I see things that my fans are saying. And I
also feel like I am now super into the algorithm.
Like everybody hit me up and be like gramcying you,
every rocket get rid of you. I'm like, exactly exactly,
I made the algorithm my bit. It's working all part
of the master player.
Speaker 4 (12:15):
But that's what we you know, that's what you were
trying to break through, right and you were trying to
kill that algorithm.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
Yeah, kills.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
You want to be kind of annoying, You got to
be kind of annoying to.
Speaker 3 (12:24):
Cringey and whatever and self selfish, good thing.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
I am those things naturally. No, not selfish, not selfish,
a little cringey.
Speaker 3 (12:34):
Who cares?
Speaker 4 (12:35):
We all are if you're a human being, you have
an ounce of it.
Speaker 3 (12:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
Yes, everybody's trying to be cool all the time, Like, bitch.

I've never been cool.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
Were you bullied because of the flute?
Speaker 1 (12:54):
