But it's always nice to have figures to look up to.
So when there's people in places that you wish to

one of the guys, like, how does she fit in
the world of like the gangsters and the thieves?
Speaker 4 (03:33):
And so she goes under cover.
Speaker 8 (03:35):
So she convinces Chicken Man, who plays Kevin Hart, well,
Kevin Hart plays Chicken Man. And she's like, Hey, I'm
gonna be a part of one of the go Go girls.
Does she give this energy? Because you she does give
this energy. And what I really love about her is
her weapon of choice is her hairpin. Oh and that's
like it personifies a woman.
Speaker 4 (03:52):
You know, it's feminine. It looks cute, but she will
cut somebody.

of meaning. I love Halo so much.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
How are you with the baby changing pampas, changing diapers?
Speaker 2 (04:12):
Are you that, Auntie?
Speaker 3 (04:13):
Or you don't want to be like you know, this
is your child, you change the pampa and then bring
it back.

Speaker 4 (04:30):
Hello, what you need? I got you?
Speaker 6 (04:32):
Does it make you want to have like your own babies?
I guess it makes you kind of prepare for that. Absolutely,
not for a while, Like what's a while?
Speaker 7 (04:39):
Like six years?
Speaker 1 (04:40):
Okay, six years? You know how old are you?
Speaker 4 (04:42):
Twenty six?
Speaker 1 (04:43):
Okay? I think six years is good.
Speaker 8 (04:44):
But you know, you can never really plan your life.
It's all really on God's timing. But if I could
right say, like six years got you?
Speaker 6 (04:52):
And then as like, Auntie, I know your sister talked
a lot about like going through postpartum and all that stuff.
Are you guys, Like, how is you doing with that?
Are you how do you help her through that? Because
I know you didn't experience it, but you're you guys
are so close.
Speaker 4 (05:05):
So yeah, well, I.
Speaker 8 (05:06):
Don't want to speak on her journey necessarily, but no
matter what each of us go through, We're always there
for each other, no matter what, and I'm just happy
that we can cling onto each other, like even when
I'm in need or need her, like.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
She's always there for me, as I will always be
for her.
Speaker 8 (05:22):
Like I'm I'm mama bear when it comes to Halle,
like I always protect her.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Does it bother you?
Speaker 6 (05:28):
Like when you see stuff online with like when like
the memes of your nephew and like with DDG, he's
always posted the videos the haircut thing, Like does that
stuff bother you?
Speaker 1 (05:37):
Well, that's not my baby.
Speaker 8 (05:39):
Yeah, it's my baby and I know he has great
parents and I just I'm happy to witness him grow.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
Gotcha.
Speaker 5 (05:47):
Yeah, you know that the album is called Troubling Paradise,
and I know you spend a lot of time in
Saint Lucia.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
You said that it inspired the album. What was the inspiration?
What about Saint Lucia?
Speaker 8 (05:58):
Okay, So Saint Lucia has been like my sanctuary. I
have found peace there, comfort, happiness, joy and not saying
that it erases life's problems, but it makes it a
little bit easier to deal with.
Speaker 4 (06:13):
So I literally wrote away my troubles in paradise.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
Wow.
Speaker 8 (06:17):
And what I love about this body of work is
it feels like what a summer fling feels like, you
know what I mean. It's exciting, it has its ups
and downs. You know, it's not too serious, but then again,
it really.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
Feels heavy in the moment.
Speaker 7 (06:28):
Yes, in the moment, it just feels like this is
the one.
Speaker 6 (06:31):
But then it's like by labor Day, you like, you
know what, Yeah, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 4 (06:35):
So I love the project.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
Do you remember a place that you found peace before?
Saint Lucian?
Speaker 4 (06:40):
No?
Speaker 2 (06:41):
Wow?
Speaker 6 (06:42):
No?
Speaker 2 (06:42):
Wow?
Speaker 4 (06:44):
So when I found it, I was like, this is
what it's like to live.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
Yeah, is a Kansas like water?
Speaker 7 (06:51):
Of course?
Speaker 3 (06:51):
You know.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
Okay, Wow.
Speaker 6 (06:53):
When you say to live, is it because like you've
been famous and like kind of in the spotlight for
a long time, or do you just mean like just
because they live differently, they're very free on the islands.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
Or like what do you mean by to live?
Speaker 8 (07:03):
It gave a new definition to living because this is
all I've known my whole life. You know, I've been
in the spotlight or however you want to call it.
Speaker 4 (07:12):
Since I've been like a little girl.
Speaker 8 (07:14):
So my life, you know, my goals, my dreams, my aspirations,
what makes me happy. It's all been based on my
career and how people view me in that space. But
it's also about your internal your character, how you feel mentally,
your heart. And when I went there, I was like, Okay,
this is true peace. It has nothing to do with
how people view me as an artist, but actually as
(07:36):
a human being.
Speaker 3 (07:38):
I was I was triggered by your album a little bit.
Speaker 4 (07:40):
Why tell me why.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
He's life skinned myself at the other age.
Speaker 6 (07:48):
With me?
Speaker 1 (07:49):
Are you about to cry?
Speaker 3 (07:50):
Almost? They have a song on that called roles Mmm,
and I'm not talking flowers.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (07:59):
We had a conversation on the breakfast club one day
about how women use the rolls and how men you
got to dig deeper.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Don't tell the story. If you're not gonna tell it.
Speaker 7 (08:07):
He could go there.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
It's all right, he has some issues.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
You're going to tell this story. You tell it.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
He has some issues a little bit.
Speaker 3 (08:15):
You know, some men look at the rolls and not
flowers as cheating and you want women to charge the rose.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
But how about men.
Speaker 8 (08:22):
Now that's not fair, because if you think a rose
is cheating, then you could say porn is cheating.
Speaker 6 (08:28):
Some people do consider porn cheating. I don't like there
are some people who'll be like, we have to watch
it together.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
We don't need it.
Speaker 4 (08:35):
Now, that's o ding it. People can have fantasies.
Speaker 3 (08:39):
So this song and she really idolizes the rose, and
I don't.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
I don't like your eyes. You buried the lead though.
Tell tell about the book?
Speaker 7 (08:46):
Can she wrote away her troubles?
Speaker 2 (08:50):
That's right away?
Speaker 7 (08:52):
I have to hear this. Oh yeah, okay, wait.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
Me and my wife have been together since sixteen.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
Love it when we first having sexual relations. Don't look
at me like that because.
Speaker 7 (09:04):
I'm just waiting. I'm sorry, I don't know what I'm.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
It was hard to make her orgasm hold my hand.
Speaker 4 (09:09):
Please wait? Why are you talking about this?
Speaker 3 (09:11):
It was in the book We find out? But for
five years, no, ten, don't you dick.
Speaker 7 (09:18):
You see what I didn't get?
Speaker 1 (09:19):
You see what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
You said in the book. Don't you laugh? Book, don't
you laugh.
Speaker 7 (09:26):
I'm not laughing.
Speaker 3 (09:27):
For a while, it took.
Speaker 5 (09:28):
Me ten years, a decade.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
I could not make her reach orgasm.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
You can't get to that's why you already.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
I couldn't get there.
Speaker 7 (09:36):
That was the problem.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
That was the problem.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
And I couldn't get there because you know what, I
used to watch porn and I used to think bang
bang bang bang bang was the way, and I realized
it wasn't. And now the rose triggers me.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
That's why you hate toys.
Speaker 4 (09:50):
You just need to build yourself up so that you're
not triggered by materialistic things. Right.
Speaker 8 (09:58):
You have to better yourself and that will solve the problem.
It should be an addition to you all's love.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
So I agree, that's sound device.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
Wow, thank you, You're welcome.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
And why are you laughing back there?
Speaker 2 (10:14):
I see you laughing back down.
Speaker 7 (10:15):
She's cracking up, honey.
Speaker 6 (10:17):
She is having a time over here, especially when he
said ten, when he doubled down.
Speaker 4 (10:24):
So she told you that she was honest about it.
Speaker 7 (10:26):
I should be honest. I'm brilliant.
Speaker 3 (10:28):
Okay, So let me tell you what happened. We've been
married twenty three years together three years, I know, but
I want to tell.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Her every beautiful though break what it happened.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
During the argument, she was like, exactly, and then it
was it was bad.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
But we worked. He's worked. He tried to flush the
rolls down the totally.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
That's how.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
I actually ran over it. I put on the car
ran over it. But yeah, but we're good now.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
But we're right about in the book.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
So couples can learn from my from my miss Okay,
any more questions.
Speaker 7 (11:05):
I'm happy that it was ended in a positive way.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
You okay.
Speaker 6 (11:12):
So this album and even just hear you talking right now,
I feel like this is a lot. You're a lot
more like open about just you relationships wise, like sexuality.
I saw the video you posted when people were reacting
to the lyrics, and you was like, yeah, like it's life,
it happens, Like how has that been coming around? Even
being in a public eye, like the dating stuff. I
(11:32):
know there was a photo with you and gonna, how
is all of this new world for you? Because you're
a lot more like you're you're here, You're sure, you're well.
It wasn't it's not that new, like it wasn't yesterday.
But there was an additional one outside of y'all.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
Y'all were in La. So y'all were in La.
Speaker 6 (11:46):
Remember you guys were in the store shopping and you
were like no, no, no, he came here.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
You're like, no, no, no, we're just friends.
Speaker 6 (11:51):
And then you perform with offset and then there was
a photo y'all at the party afterward. Y'all are just
stitting next to each other in the photo, which sparks
some more rumors.
Speaker 8 (11:59):
So laurend her homework on you.
Speaker 1 (12:04):
You No, I gotta get in my hand. Well you
that girl?
Speaker 7 (12:09):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
I appreciate that. We ain't gonna get around a question.
Speaker 4 (12:12):
Though, Oh no, I'm listening, okay.
Speaker 6 (12:13):
So I want to know two things. First of all,
I want to know right because you are who you are.
He is who he is talking about Gunna, And it's
tough sometimes and people critique you a lot about be
your woman, and you date and you have sex and
you do these different things. So is that tough trying
to date at all? Removing Gunnan from the situation.
Speaker 4 (12:33):
Yeah, Well, One, I'm really proud of everything that he's doing.
Speaker 8 (12:37):
Two, Honestly, it is tough to date because even if
I just want to go out to grab a bike, say,
talk about music, if it's any one of the opposite sex,
it's like, oh, that's what she's dating. And I want
people to focus on me and my career. I don't
want to be connected to every man that I'm standing
next to. So because of that, I mean I am
(12:57):
naturally a hermit, but because of that, I'm just like
extra extra cautious.
Speaker 4 (13:01):
Yeah, you know.
Speaker 6 (13:01):
And it's unfortunate though, because you are in the phase
where I'm sure you're dating when to meet new people,
and it's a fun thing to be able to do.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
Yeah, you can't do it publicly.
Speaker 6 (13:08):
But since those photos were public at one time, and
I know you guys have denied it and then the
offset thing happened, what is the what's the synergy there?
Speaker 8 (13:16):
Like?
Speaker 1 (13:16):
Is there nothing there for real?
Speaker 2 (13:18):
Or you want know the status?
Speaker 4 (13:19):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (13:19):
Like I just want to know.
Speaker 6 (13:20):
I feel like every time we get told there's nothing,
then it's like, y'all find each other somewhere.
Speaker 8 (13:25):
Well, I mean we're both in the industry. He's doing
his thing, I'm doing my thing. He's doing really great,
by the way, so it's just all love.
Speaker 5 (13:32):
Yeah, Okay, are you writing nowadays more from a reflective
standpoint or as a storyteller, because you know, I hear
records like might as well where you say things I'm like,
I might fly a nigga to the south Side, let
him hit it first night, then fall back.
Speaker 4 (13:46):
Jesus, you know that's the new Chloe.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
I'm talking about Michrel.
Speaker 7 (13:51):
You're here now.
Speaker 8 (13:52):
So it's like my external doesn't say these things right,
but my internal feel them. So when I write, it's like,
coming from a standpoint, this is what i'd say to you,
right if you you know, if I had.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
The golf, I like that for you.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
Though you man out for real? No, oh okay, if
you like who.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
You wouldn't do it.
Speaker 2 (14:20):
She ain't gonna be dealing with those brokies.
Speaker 7 (14:24):
To say that.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
Sometimes.
Speaker 7 (14:27):
But I don't. I don't think I would do that.
Speaker 8 (14:30):
I mean, maybe i'd go there instead so that I'm
flying myself.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
Okay, you feel me.
Speaker 3 (14:37):
Dating somebody that might not have it like you did,
You wouldn't say, you know what, boo boo, I'm gonna
fly you to me into La I'm gonnaly you to
me to Saint Lucia, or I'm gonna fly you to wherever.
Speaker 4 (14:45):
I would want them to at least be able to
get a flight to see me.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
Ain't nothing wrong with that?
Speaker 8 (14:49):
Yeah, you know, because I don't want to be like
I don't want to play like the masculine role and
like make him feel less than.
Speaker 4 (14:57):
So I'd rather not even visit that.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
People forget that you're twenty six years old. I think
a lot of people still look at you as the
young teenager singing. Do you have a hard time with that?
Speaker 8 (15:09):
No, it kind of makes me laugh, especially when I
have no makeup when I do look fifteen, and I
do have like a young spirit, So I mean, it's okay.
Speaker 4 (15:18):
It's sometimes I'm.
Speaker 8 (15:18):
Like, gosh, I'm twenty six, four years from thirty, let's
let it go.
Speaker 3 (15:23):
But what does your dad and auntie say about those lyrics?
Because you're such.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
A family person.
Speaker 3 (15:27):
Yeah, and usually your dad's here, so what do you
what do they say when they hear those lyrics?
Speaker 8 (15:32):
So, my Godmom, she's the first person I'll send the
songs to and she knows me, like at the back
of my hand, so she will laugh a lot to
the lyrics, and then she'll also push me.
Speaker 4 (15:44):
And what I really love too about how want Me
came about was sis and I.
Speaker 8 (15:47):
When I played it for her, she was like, this
feels like a Colo and Haley record. And I kept
looping that in my head and I was like you
know what. So then I wrote Sister's Verse.
Speaker 4 (15:56):
And I was like, do you want to hop on
this with me?
Speaker 8 (15:58):
And it was nice that we got to have a
collaboration together after two years. So it's like little things
like that that I won't always be prevy or open
to that she'll like call out. So it's always nice
to have someone that you'll trust. Now for a song
is she'll tell me there's too much?
Speaker 6 (16:12):
Yeah, are there ever any songs like because you have
temporarily single all I got where like you're you know,
you're opening up about stuff where you're like, don't listen
to this one, y'all, like skip over that one?
Speaker 1 (16:22):
Like do you ever have this out on that?
Speaker 8 (16:24):
I always get nervous anytime I play my music anytime,
really yes, because I'm burying my soul in the song.
Speaker 4 (16:31):
And it's like, okay, yeah, this is me. I don't
really show this. This is me.
Speaker 8 (16:35):
So it's like, I hope, you know, people will like it,
even the ones closest to me, Like I'll get nervous.
Speaker 4 (16:40):
I'll have my head down listening and looking up like this.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
I love the relationship you have with your god brother
tu though, because you know.
Speaker 5 (16:47):
That you hear people say, oh, I'm the god mom,
I'm the god dad, but you don't see the godparents
really act like it. Yeah, like you really hold you
down like that? Has that always been the case?
Speaker 8 (16:56):
It has Like she's the first person to show me
what unconditional love.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
Truly looks like, Wow, wow, m anybody parents? I am
me too, but I don't act like it you got
I don't know what it entails. Like That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 8 (17:12):
When I see him together, I'm just like, if something
happens to you know, they will take over.
Speaker 4 (17:17):
Like I'm Halo's aunt, but I'm also his god mom.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
Wow.
Speaker 6 (17:20):
God's fitting for y'all though, because I don't know who
else is, Like you guys are the closest I've never
It's just it's y'all.
Speaker 4 (17:27):
I know she I would have been like, excuse me,
why not the god home?
Speaker 5 (17:30):
But it makes sense when you got a relationship when
somebody just labels you that and then you don't really
have a relationship with the child child, right, and then
something happened You're like, I don't know this person.
Speaker 7 (17:39):
I think I have.
Speaker 3 (17:40):
I think we all god parents on birthdays and holidays, right,
You're not you don't say gifts at all.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
I don't even know what it means.
Speaker 5 (17:46):
That's why I said, when I see them, it's like,
oh okay, that's how it's supposed to be.
Speaker 6 (17:49):
It's supposed to be, like your backup angel. It's like,
you know, like you might need to call them for something.
You might need to God Dad, I need some money.
You might need to advice. It depends on I.
Speaker 4 (18:00):
Like how you said, like the little backup guardian.
Speaker 6 (18:02):
Like that's I think my god mom, who's also my
aunt as well too. It's my grandma's sister. But I
feel like we are like kindred spirits and it just
God made it that way, you know. But I have
a question for you about you mentioned like when you
play your music for people, when people hear your music,
you always get nervous.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
How do you deal with critiques?
Speaker 6 (18:20):
Because I know John B came out and that was
like a whole thing when he said that you're gonna
song that you remade of his the what song was it?
The they don't know was ratchet and people were upset
at him for saying that, Like how did you feel
about that?
Speaker 4 (18:31):
Well?
Speaker 8 (18:32):
John B is an incredible artist. If that song didn't exist.
We couldn't sample it. So I love what Gunna and
I did to it.
Speaker 4 (18:39):
And you know, I'm sad he feels that way, but hey,
everyone has opinions.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
You also say he didn't it didn't get cleared. I
was like it had to get clear.
Speaker 4 (18:47):
Yeah that I did.
Speaker 3 (18:53):
You know who John B was before that?
Speaker 6 (18:55):
Of course, of course, just asking no, don't get on
they talk to me younger.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
I'm just like, it's like, no, I might not know everything.
Speaker 8 (19:08):
But no, it's really important to like listen to her
and trust like the youth and like she's so smart.
Speaker 4 (19:14):
What's your birthday?
Speaker 1 (19:16):
November twenty second?
Speaker 4 (19:17):
Are you a sad?
Speaker 1 (19:18):
I'm sad?
Speaker 4 (19:20):
Sad?
Speaker 7 (19:20):
Okay, yeah, okay.
Speaker 5 (19:21):
It don't have nothing to do with youth, claud It
has the fact she sometimes I'm not sure her people.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
Just don't be knowing stuff. That's all. That's it.
Speaker 8 (19:30):
Yes, but if she doesn't know something, we can't say
it's because of her youth.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
Yes, you just don't know that you got an informer. Yeah,
I get it. Yeah, it's just little things though, what.
Speaker 6 (19:40):
Like what what you wanted to add? You wanted somebody
you know, we call.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
The t a queen. She didn't know it was Queen Latifa.
Speaker 6 (19:46):
No, that's not true. He asked me, did I know
Queen Latifa's real name? That's what he asked me.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
That's not true.
Speaker 3 (19:52):
It started from Yeah, I didn't.
Speaker 6 (19:53):
Know ls real name because I'm like, it's LLOKUJ, Like,
what do you mean?
Speaker 2 (19:57):
That's That's those the things I think people should know.
But that goes back to when we were younger.
Speaker 5 (20:02):
We had to read the album credit correct, like we
would watch the movies, watch the TV shows and look
at the end credits to see what people were doing.
Speaker 8 (20:09):
That I do miss I feel like that art is gone,
Like that's something that I would have appreciated.
Speaker 4 (20:15):
You know.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
Do you really feel like nice Girls finished last?
Speaker 8 (20:20):
So I do feel that way, and in your case,
your wife did mhm.
Speaker 4 (20:27):
Oh that's good.
Speaker 7 (20:29):
You know.
Speaker 4 (20:30):
That's what the song is about. That's what the song
is about, is.
Speaker 7 (20:37):
About face value. That was such a bad.
Speaker 1 (20:41):
Don't let it fool you, don't let it don't.
Speaker 7 (20:47):
That's what the song is about.
Speaker 8 (20:51):
Last man, we cater to the man and the nice
Girl finished his last and then we referenced Janet Jackson
at the end on the last line of the song.
Speaker 4 (21:01):
That's what the song is about. It was not.
Speaker 5 (21:05):
Basically what you're saying, that women should speak up for
themselves more and if they're not getting what they.
Speaker 4 (21:10):
Want, it's like a it's like a window.
Speaker 6 (21:12):
Yeah, and you also are you also speaking like romantically
like sexually as well. That's that and yeah, because you
want to it's all about like pleasing your partner.
Speaker 1 (21:21):
Sorry, it was not a stab.
Speaker 5 (21:23):
It on YouTube the way she looked at in said.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
And that's what your wife found.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
Somebody told me that he needs to use.
Speaker 4 (21:41):
Side.
Speaker 2 (21:41):
I want rolls over here.
Speaker 8 (21:43):
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, but that's what the song is about.
Speaker 1 (21:47):
That's what it's about, Okay.
Speaker 8 (21:49):
Like taking the back seat and like not in your partner,
you know, as.
Speaker 6 (21:53):
A as a as a woman, like because one of
the things that I feel like i'm learning right now.
Speaker 3 (21:56):
Is she's single, by the way I.
Speaker 1 (21:59):
Am, and I'm enjoying.
Speaker 6 (22:07):
I can't there because I'm be having to throw stuff,
but I've been enjoying it. And I will say though,
like one of the things I had to learn is
like how to take a back seat because I wasn't
just natural, like that wasn't in my household. But then
he made me forget everything I was about to say.
As as a as a woman who you know, your
(22:29):
very career oriented, you have a lot going for yourself,
all that stuff, how do you deal with knowing when
to take the back seat and knowing when to be like, no,
I'm not doing that because you don't want to intimidate
the guy.
Speaker 4 (22:38):
That's a really great question.
Speaker 8 (22:40):
So for me, I like to be babied a bit,
like because I am in a field where I do
have to lead and speak up for myself and you know,
command the room and everything. It's nice to be able
to come to a space that you're comfortable where you
can let that down. I feel like every woman wants
(23:02):
to protect her they just have to find the man
who can protect right. And I feel like that's when
we don't feel that way, that's when we feel like
we have to stick our chest out because it's like
fight or flight. But when we feel like someone is
capable enough to carry us, to shield us, you know,
when the storm gets crazy, that's when we kind of
take that backseat role. So it's really about who you
(23:24):
find comfortable being that vulnerable with.
Speaker 4 (23:27):
I feel I agree.
Speaker 1 (23:28):
With that you so calm, really, yeah, you're right, you.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
Ship, not the way she threw that envy.
Speaker 7 (23:38):
A gun for.
Speaker 5 (23:38):
I can't tell now, being that you are who you are,
claud do you really feel like fuck your status when
it comes to guys, because you got a song that
I'm called f.
Speaker 2 (23:47):
Y your status? You really feel that way?
Speaker 5 (23:50):
Do you really feel like all I need is love,
I don't need nothing else, money, your position, job?
Speaker 8 (23:57):
Honestly, yes, we'll want someone with drive and someone who
has ambition so that we can build each other up.
Speaker 4 (24:06):
But I think.
Speaker 8 (24:07):
Being in a world where it's so superficial and everything
is based on what you have, what are you doing next?
This sometimes it gets a little suffocating and redundant. So
it's nice to just have someone who loves you just
for you, so.
Speaker 5 (24:24):
You would date like somebody that wasn't in the industry,
got to drive youps or something.
Speaker 4 (24:29):
No, but someone not in the industry.
Speaker 6 (24:34):
But I think a lot of times too, when when
people ask that question, I mean it's like I get it,
But like when people ask that question too, Like one
of the conversations people don't have is sometimes like when
finances aren't right, or like even just status right, Like
we could both be making the same money.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
But I'm more outward than you are.
Speaker 6 (24:49):
I've never come across the man that has been secure
enough in himself to be okay with that.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
And it causes.
Speaker 6 (24:53):
Problems even if you don't bring them in. And that's
why women we kind of do that to protect ourselves sometimes.
So I think it gets unfairly thrown on women. You're
very successful. It gets unfairly thrown on you when you say, oh,
I have a preference, but the preference sometimes a protect yourself.
Speaker 3 (25:07):
What would be wrong with a ups driver?
Speaker 2 (25:08):
That's what somebody would say.
Speaker 4 (25:09):
Everybody has a preference.
Speaker 8 (25:10):
Nothing's wrong with the ups driver, nothing's wrong with them
at all. Would I date someone maybe? Maybe not, just
like everyone has a preference. They like a woman with
the big booty, they like a woman with tiny titties.
Everybody has a preference.
Speaker 2 (25:26):
You would date somebody short, though.
Speaker 8 (25:28):
I would date someone who I'm the same height with
with heels on.
Speaker 6 (25:35):
Yeah, I've not known somebody who's kind of your height,
who we've seen them in photos together already?
Speaker 2 (25:44):
Do you keep going back to.
Speaker 6 (25:49):
Ask I'm asking you, would you like if today he's like,
we need to do this, would you lock in?
Speaker 4 (25:54):
Like?
Speaker 6 (25:54):
Is the is the relationship there where you guys are
friends enough. I understand you're just friends now, but you
guys are friends enough where you would be like, you
know what, I would explore this.
Speaker 4 (26:02):
I think we're both living like our own lives.
Speaker 1 (26:05):
You're so good at this, good at what the answers,
your answers.
Speaker 4 (26:08):
I'm just being honest. Okay, go ahead, Yeah, we're just
living our own lives. You know.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
Did you like his physical transformation?
Speaker 8 (26:15):
Yeah, I'm really proud of him. It's always great when
someone transforms their life like that.
Speaker 2 (26:20):
You know, he did the right way, no surgery, no bbls.
Speaker 4 (26:23):
He looks great.
Speaker 1 (26:24):
Yeah, were you asking her or telling her? Confused? Were
you confused when I told you?
Speaker 2 (26:34):
What is your problem? Jesus Chris?
Speaker 6 (26:38):
But I was gonna say you open the album. I
think it's all I got, But correct me if I'm wrong.
And you talk about like there's like a guy who
he's like not the fall guy, but he's always there
for you, and he's always there for you in all
the right ways. But that's not the guy you like
or want to be with. But then there's this other guy,
like you have the this is the ideal guy, but
he doesn't know how to be for be there for
(26:58):
you in the same way.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
What's your experience been like with that?
Speaker 3 (27:02):
Like and how to ask which one is gonna That's
what she wants to ask.
Speaker 1 (27:05):
What inspired that song?
Speaker 2 (27:07):
So?
Speaker 4 (27:07):
What inspired the song? You guys love talking about him?
Speaker 7 (27:10):
But inspired the song crazy?
Speaker 1 (27:13):
I hadn't read that, right, I literally didn't even say
it this time. I just was interested in that. Yeah,
you know, I think every girl has that.
Speaker 7 (27:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (27:20):
What inspired the song though, for me is that you
want to feel safe and secure, but then at the
same time you also want someone to push you out
of your comfort zone. So it's the catch twenty two
because we all just, oh, it's life, life be life.
Speaker 3 (27:35):
So you like the bad guy, You like the guy
that's gonna keep you secure in the safe back the ladder.
Speaker 5 (27:40):
The ladder men listen to your albums and like, like
like use it as a blueprint, Like should they use
it like how people use Steve Harvey books?
Speaker 2 (27:47):
Or is just the stuff you're writing? You really mean, like.
Speaker 4 (27:49):
They can if they would like to.
Speaker 2 (27:51):
Okay, Okay, yeah, you know, I mean.
Speaker 4 (27:53):
There might be some girls who have experienced things I've experienced.
There might be not, But it was really fun, you know,
just coming from such a stance of power as being
a woman and being in the islands, you know, just
looking out at the water as I'm creating this music.
It was just something about it. It was just like
so you I did, Wow, I did.
Speaker 7 (28:16):
We had a villa, flew out producer.
Speaker 4 (28:18):
Engineer and it was just so nice.
Speaker 8 (28:21):
And every night we'd go out experience the music. I'd
go swimming, come back in record. It was just the
most freeing experience.
Speaker 7 (28:30):
I did.
Speaker 4 (28:31):
Yes, so for Springs, So Springs, I was amazing. I
love it. It's so so cleansing.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
What's fun relaxed?
Speaker 6 (28:39):
You like, like no work, Like on a day where
you're not working in Saint Lucia, You're not Chloe. You
just somebody that's there and like experience and have a
good time.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
Like what are you?
Speaker 4 (28:48):
Like?
Speaker 1 (28:48):
Are you the staying on the couch friend? You're the
spy friend? Like which one are you?
Speaker 8 (28:52):
I'm the friend who has my bathing suit on and
my big baggy sweatpants and I go straight to the
beach and I lounge out there all day and I'll
eat good food or be on a boat and jump.
Speaker 4 (29:03):
Off adventurous friend. Yes you adventurous friend.
Speaker 5 (29:07):
I also read one time that you said you enjoy
acting because it helps train your brain, not the aim
for perfection. So have you been describing for perfection and
everything else that your career path, your personal life.
Speaker 8 (29:18):
When it comes to performing and music, you kind of
have to you're only as good as your last performance,
and you know you rehearse for hours to make sure
the choreography is perfect. You make sure you can sing
the song perfectly so that it's like so you know,
for me, I just love acting as well because it's
(29:38):
like it taps into a piece of me where I
can be really raw and vulnerable and open. And when
you are channeling an actual human being, there's beauty in
the flaws.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
And how channeling.
Speaker 5 (29:48):
How hard is it to try to chase perfection though, Like,
because I feel like you'll beat yourself up if you
don't feel like you're doing things perfectly.
Speaker 8 (29:57):
You'll constantly it'll be like a endless cycle, like a
hamster and a wheel. And for me, there's so many
times I've done that, but it's like it'll be a
losing battle.
Speaker 4 (30:09):
So it's a catch twenty two as well, a.
Speaker 5 (30:10):
Lot because a lot of times that can lead to
like depression that can lead to like anxiety because you
think you're not doing things, you're.
Speaker 4 (30:16):
Not doing enough.
Speaker 6 (30:18):
Yeah, of course, what was an experience that made you
like realize okay, Like I got to learn to step
off the wheel? Like do you remember a moment where
you're like, ooh, I'm hit in rock bottle right now?
I got to step off the wheel.
Speaker 8 (30:31):
I think it was last year, and it was like
you know when you kind of go numb a bit
and you kind of nothing really phases you. Yeah, that's
when you're like, okay, I've lost feeling. How do I
get that back? You don't want to ever give up
(30:52):
to a point where you stop caring. So I'm happy
that my love and care has come back. But what
I really appreciate is how you constantly do talk about
mental health because it is important, and I feel like,
especially in the black community, it's overlooked or like it's
frowned upon sometimes, but more recently it hasn't been.
Speaker 4 (31:09):
But I think therapy is important.
Speaker 8 (31:11):
I think, you know, talking to the people, your loved
ones so that you're not suffering or going through anything alone.
Speaker 4 (31:17):
I think all of that's important.
Speaker 2 (31:18):
Did it help you get out that space like therapy and.
Speaker 4 (31:20):
Oh yeah, oh yeah, for sure over here.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
God.
Speaker 5 (31:26):
Yeah, you said a line one time, you said, people
who you think will be there for the rest of
your life, people who you think have your back through
and through, they have the knife Jesus Christ.
Speaker 1 (31:36):
Yep.
Speaker 4 (31:37):
Wow, that's life.
Speaker 8 (31:39):
And I think what has been healthy for me is
knowing that everybody goes through kind of the similar thing.
It kind of takes me out of the moment of
being like woe is me, Like of course I still do.
You know, I'll be like damn, and I'll allow myself
to feel but it's like, Okay, someone is going through
something similar. You're not alone, and it's like a Okay,
(32:00):
this is just life. And that's how I'll generalize it.
Speaker 2 (32:02):
To keep pushing boundaries.
Speaker 8 (32:05):
That's that's my big learning lesson. Right now, I'm getting there.
I'm getting there.
Speaker 6 (32:10):
Where were you if you don't mind me asking what
was going on in your life at the time where
you had to step off the wheel and you got numb?
Because I remember what I was going through specifically.
Speaker 4 (32:19):
It was a factor of things. It was a factor
of things. It's like I think there's always that little
cherry on top. Yeah, and it's like whoa.
Speaker 8 (32:27):
But what is important is that you always continue to
get back up and having people who can help you
get back up.
Speaker 4 (32:35):
So I'm standing now there you go.
Speaker 2 (32:37):
How was it when you and Hoighy got back in
the studio.
Speaker 4 (32:40):
It was amazing. We were in New York.
Speaker 8 (32:42):
Actually, we had like a press event here and I
was like, seis okay, here's the verse.
Speaker 4 (32:47):
You like it? She's like I love it.
Speaker 8 (32:48):
I was like come, She's like, okay, I'm bringing Halo
to the studio. He was there at the engineering board
with me, and she just sounded so beautiful and she
just pushed the record to be even more special.
Speaker 2 (32:58):
It's hard to get her to do anything other than nowadays.
Speaker 8 (33:01):
No, she is multifaceted, like she's doing so much. She's
been filming, taking care of Halo. Even when I was
filming in New Orleans, she came to visit me for
a weekend.
Speaker 4 (33:10):
Because I was like feeling lonely. So I was happy.
Speaker 1 (33:14):
I know you guys do your It is tea time.
Speaker 6 (33:16):
Yes, y'all started it back up and I saw Halo
was in one of them. What it is like because
you've always been close, but now she's a mom, so
she's experiencing different things. Is the relationship different now or
is it the same. But you just have to know
she's also a mom too, like.
Speaker 1 (33:29):
What was the what was that?
Speaker 8 (33:31):
Like? In a really weird way, it's gotten stronger. Okay,
I can't explain it. It's just like I think because
we both have a deeper appreciation for life now, seeing
something so pure and innocent like that, it has made
our bond stronger.
Speaker 2 (33:48):
Y'all women now, it's it's like a different level of womanhood.
Speaker 6 (33:51):
That's what I feel through this, this this project. That's
why I'm like you hear like, I'm happy for you.
Speaker 4 (33:56):
Thank you, thank you so much, happy that you enjoyed it.
