The whole process has been really like fun. I'm working.
I'm working on dropping my debut album in July called
Rain on My Parade, and I dropped in a fire
single next week when my brother hit Maker called bad Luck.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
So when you talk about working on your debut album,
is it a little bit more nerve wracking and just
dropping songs and kind of filling out your audience, putting
together that like actual project.
Speaker 3 (02:18):
Is it prescious?
Speaker 4 (02:20):
I feel like it's really been fun more than anything.
When I first started dropping music, I dropped two EPs
in the alternative and like R and B Room, So
I feel like that's like helped me to like gauge,
like really like what my fans want to hear.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
Yes, well, let's talk about the alternative space and then
I'm gonna take it out here to you guys, because
also to what I love to see is is the
fact that they push you.
Speaker 3 (02:40):
Y'all are like, she don't even need promotion.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
Y'all are walking billboards for her everywhere that you guys are,
even if she's not there.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
But being in an alternative space also too.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
As a black female artist, people are I don't even
think they're understanding it, but they're trying to. Now do
you feel that turning point of like people understanding what
you're doing when you're esthetic your music, how.
Speaker 4 (02:58):
You go to your absolutely to as I've been like
building my catalog and really like showcasing my art and
what I'm about.
Speaker 3 (03:06):

Speaker 5 (03:28):
You know I'm gonna talk about that, Yeah, because you
want to talk about that. I got to make sure
you know. I'm real strategic and I understand. I understand deals,
I understand who watching and who not. Yes, so I
understand social posts. So you got to be on point
because you never know who your next partner might be.
Speaker 3 (03:43):
But let me tell you something.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
If he said you wasn't taking it serious, you know
what that showed me?
Speaker 1 (03:47):
What he little spark up under you?
Speaker 6 (03:52):
We hold on?
Speaker 3 (03:53):
Don't this post this? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (03:55):
Not because I think for what I do. I think
a lot of people don't understand that. Like I come
from TMZ and I come from this Journali's background, but
I also do come from the world of the Internet.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
And that's why you know what you're doing.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
I'll be like, yo, she's so fire because you have
a way of appealing to your audience that like a
lot of artists aren't doing. I'm a journalist, but like
I'm doing it in a way that people don't even understand.
Like people literally don't understand my trajectory. They don't understand
the fact that I have a personality. But I'm also
I care about the facts. I care about good conversation.
So a little bit of it, I was like, why
Wild giving me the oldhit and hip hop tug that
(04:27):
don't understand.
Speaker 5 (04:27):
No, no, no, this is the whole thing.
Speaker 7 (04:29):
It was.
Speaker 5 (04:29):
Now you if anybody know you know me and Gil
understand culture now and then tomorrow. That's why we be
destroying it out here. Yes, I'm giving it to you
on a tip, like I'm gonna give it to you
more off of the off of here. But I understand
you talking to the people that got the big money,
the biggest money out here. Yes, whereas though we know
the deals, I understand what's important in the post and
what's not. And it's like sometimes you gotta you, gotta,
(04:51):
you gotta keep the main thing, the main thing I
get you, and that's the one that's really gonna take
you to the next level. Yeah, sometimes the other stuff
on the side be cool, but it's like that ain't
why they gonna get thank you ten million and fifteen million.
So that's what I'm more on. Focus on that. The
work is all at But sometimes it be the extra
stuff that'd be like, that's not necessarily focus on this.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
It's all love. Though, y'all know Gilly Wallow.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
They they family, you know first of all New York
La who is Gilly's daughter.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
She is dope.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
Please make sure you guys going to follow her. Her sound,
her aesthetic, everything is fire. But y'all know Gilly and Wallow.
Our family is very much giving unk energy. So as
I mentioned in an interview, I don't take anything personal.
It's more so of like I understand, it's all love,
and I think people are just very protective of the
space that I'm in right now and want to see
me doing well. And I appreciate the feedback. I get
(05:40):
it all day long for people I respect, and I
appreciate just being in the space that have people want
to pour into me in that way.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
Now I talk to candy birds.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
The candy birds we got into some things we talked
about Othello on Broadway because my girl as a producer
is just doing things that are so much bigger than
I think what people will give her credit for now.
We also talked about the fact that the thing that
made can You not be able to appear on the
show in the first place those photos. Britt Edie, who
(06:10):
the photos were legedly of, came out and said the
photos weren't even hurt and she dropped a twenty million
dollar lawsuit against.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
Bravo because of that. Let's take a listen to Candy
and herriaka let's talk.
Speaker 6 (06:20):
Oh Hello, let me say thank you to every single
person that bought a ticket and helped us break records. Okay,
tomorrow is our last show on Broadway, so we finish
our We finish our run tomorrow, and it's so crazy
because everybody's like, oh my god, you know, y'all got
to bring it back. But we knew when we started
(06:40):
it that it was going to be a limited run
and I'm just thankful to be a part of it.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
Okay, to be able to.
Speaker 6 (06:46):
Say, you know, I was a producer on a show
that starred Dizzel Washington and Jake Jill and Hall is
like amazing.
Speaker 3 (06:55):
And it's Broadway. That's like for a lot of people.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
People were probably wondering, like, how did you even get
into that conversation because people may think it's out of
your wheelhouse, but that is such an epic thing for
a person who's been on screen performing, right, Like.
Speaker 6 (07:08):
Yeah, so my career has you know, led up to
this point. My first one was Thoughts of a Colored Man,
and that was when Broadway was like first coming back
open after the pandemic.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
And I mean, well it was during the pandemic. So
that was the first one.
Speaker 6 (07:25):
And now we did the Piano Lesson and we really
started setting records and setting you know, it was showing
that shows that was starred black actors, directed by a
black female director, had a black producing team that we
could still sell tickets and really because at that time
(07:48):
Piano Lesson was really selling crazy amount of tickets as well.
And I think that was like the problem prior to
people were scared to invest in shows that started all
you know, black talent.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
Another big part of your life for so long was
Real Horsworst. Atlanta decided to take this.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
I did fourteen season straight. I know, looking at this season,
you happy you stepped the way.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
Yes, well, they recently came out that first of all
Kenya being let her let go from the show for
the rest of that season, that those photos that they, yeah,
you would talked about the fact that you felt like
the network doesn't protect their talent. But now we're finding
out that the photos weren't even Brittany. Brittany posted the
(08:31):
statement saying that she was not in those photos, and
then she sued she sue or she dropped a suit
against Bravo because of you know, distress that it put
her through because they allegedly were supposed to have done
this investigation.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
I'm so confused how that happens.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
I'm confused too.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
I don't know. I wasn't there, but like, what do
you mean.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
It's like if you're looking at a photo, you didn't
tell whether it is or isn't a person, right, Yeah?
Speaker 6 (08:54):
I mean my thing is, I like everything changed because
I thought at one point they were trying to say
she was under agent in the in the photos. So
how did they know that if the photo wasn't even her?
Speaker 3 (09:05):
So who came up with that?
Speaker 6 (09:06):
Remember, they was trying to really come down heavy on Kenya.
They was trying to say, you know that she put
these photos out, which was inappropriate, and then they was
like and at one point they were trying to say
and she was under age at the time, and I'm like, well.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
Who said she was at the age?
Speaker 3 (09:20):
Then?
Speaker 6 (09:20):
If no, if that wasn't the photos, I don't know.
My thing is I went there. I'm glad I went there,
and my name Bennett I ain't in it.
Speaker 3 (09:30):
And we can move right along. Y'all know. I love
a good Housewives conversation.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
And I actually got to meet Kelly in person in
the media room, and she is She's a dollar person.
She's actually a lot shorter than I thought she would be.
Uh in Shamia finally met Shamia a person as well.
To Smida says she wants to come here and do
the podcast. Did not know Shemiya is a radio Girlly.
She was there doing the media room as well, doing
some interviews and stuff. So she wants to come and
(09:55):
break down some topics on the podcast. So we'll get
our girl on toons. But other news the latest, if
y'all don't know, Russell Wilson has brought his family to
New York because he is playing for the Giants now.
And I actually got to talk to see her about
what that move to New York has been like for
her in the family in New York now, because I.

Speaker 2 (10:29):

of overwhelming because I'm from Atlanta and I'm.

Our family is very much giving unk energy. So as
I mentioned in an interview, I don't take anything personal.
It's more so of like I understand, it's all love,
and I think people are just very protective of the
space that I'm in right now and want to see
me doing well. And I appreciate the feedback. I get
(05:40):
it all day long for people I respect, and I
appreciate just being in the space that have people want
to pour into me in that way.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
Now I talk to candy birds.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
The candy birds we got into some things we talked
about Othello on Broadway because my girl as a producer
is just doing things that are so much bigger than
I think what people will give her credit for now.
We also talked about the fact that the thing that
made can You not be able to appear on the
show in the first place those photos. Britt Edie, who
(06:10):
the photos were legedly of, came out and said the
photos weren't even hurt and she dropped a twenty million
dollar lawsuit against.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
Bravo because of that. Let's take a listen to Candy
and herriaka let's talk.
Speaker 6 (06:20):
Oh Hello, let me say thank you to every single
person that bought a ticket and helped us break records. Okay,
tomorrow is our last show on Broadway, so we finish
our We finish our run tomorrow, and it's so crazy
because everybody's like, oh my god, you know, y'all got
to bring it back. But we knew when we started
(06:40):
it that it was going to be a limited run
and I'm just thankful to be a part of it.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
Okay, to be able to.
Speaker 6 (06:46):
Say, you know, I was a producer on a show
that starred Dizzel Washington and Jake Jill and Hall is
like amazing.
Speaker 3 (06:55):
And it's Broadway. That's like for a lot of people.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
People were probably wondering, like, how did you even get
into that conversation because people may think it's out of
your wheelhouse, but that is such an epic thing for
a person who's been on screen performing, right, Like.
Speaker 6 (07:08):
Yeah, so my career has you know, led up to
this point. My first one was Thoughts of a Colored Man,
and that was when Broadway was like first coming back
open after the pandemic.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
And I mean, well it was during the pandemic. So
that was the first one.
Speaker 6 (07:25):
And now we did the Piano Lesson and we really
started setting records and setting you know, it was showing
that shows that was starred black actors, directed by a
black female director, had a black producing team that we
could still sell tickets and really because at that time
(07:48):
Piano Lesson was really selling crazy amount of tickets as well.
And I think that was like the problem prior to
people were scared to invest in shows that started all
you know, black talent.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
Another big part of your life for so long was
Real Horsworst. Atlanta decided to take this.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
I did fourteen season straight. I know, looking at this season,
you happy you stepped the way.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
Yes, well, they recently came out that first of all
Kenya being let her let go from the show for
the rest of that season, that those photos that they, yeah,
you would talked about the fact that you felt like
the network doesn't protect their talent. But now we're finding
out that the photos weren't even Brittany. Brittany posted the
(08:31):
statement saying that she was not in those photos, and
then she sued she sue or she dropped a suit
against Bravo because of you know, distress that it put
her through because they allegedly were supposed to have done
this investigation.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
I'm so confused how that happens.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
I'm confused too.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
I don't know. I wasn't there, but like, what do
you mean.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
It's like if you're looking at a photo, you didn't
tell whether it is or isn't a person, right, Yeah?
Speaker 6 (08:54):
I mean my thing is, I like everything changed because
I thought at one point they were trying to say
she was under agent in the in the photos. So
how did they know that if the photo wasn't even her?
Speaker 3 (09:05):
So who came up with that?
Speaker 6 (09:06):
Remember, they was trying to really come down heavy on Kenya.
They was trying to say, you know that she put
these photos out, which was inappropriate, and then they was
like and at one point they were trying to say
and she was under age at the time, and I'm like, well.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
Who said she was at the age?
Speaker 3 (09:20):
Then?
Speaker 6 (09:20):
If no, if that wasn't the photos, I don't know.
My thing is I went there. I'm glad I went there,
and my name Bennett I ain't in it.
Speaker 3 (09:30):
And we can move right along. Y'all know. I love
a good Housewives conversation.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
And I actually got to meet Kelly in person in
the media room, and she is She's a dollar person.
She's actually a lot shorter than I thought she would be.
Uh in Shamia finally met Shamia a person as well.
To Smida says she wants to come here and do
the podcast. Did not know Shemiya is a radio Girlly.
She was there doing the media room as well, doing
some interviews and stuff. So she wants to come and
(09:55):

our girl on toons. But other news the latest, if

New York because he is playing for the Giants now.

what that move to New York has been like for
her in the family in New York now, because I.

Like I do like talking about football with him. Sometimes
I'm like I want to be a fly on the
wall because I love what he does. I think he's
the best at what he does. But we're together, it's
(12:01):
our chance to like just enjoy ourselves, and so we
are really intentional about that. We love our date nights.

Though it was a very like real life fan moment
