Speaker 1 (00:22):
Let me choose your character.

Speaker 2 (00:34):
All right, all right, all right, Welcome back to the
geek Set podcast only podcast that blending hip hop coaching
and geek coaching together.

Speaker 3 (00:40):
I'm your boy, Duces, and this is one on one
with Deuces, the place where I speak with creators, curators
and people that you should know and listen. Here.

Speaker 2 (00:47):
I got a whole legend right here on my platform
right now for those who know. Man, I love black
culture so much. I talk about classic black films so much.
And I got the one and only Tamila Jones here.
How are you doing today?

Speaker 1 (01:00):
I am doing well.

Speaker 3 (01:02):
Yes, Now we got our connection.

Speaker 2 (01:04):
We got our connect right, so now you can receive
these flowers the way I had intended it for you.

Speaker 1 (01:10):
Yes, thanks, Yes, I said. It was a little the
internet was tripping a little bit.

Speaker 2 (01:16):
The internet was tripping, so again I got to start off.
You know, like I said, my platform is all about
giving people their flowers, given while they're here. And I
just again, like I told you before, when when we
see your name or your face attached to a movie
or a project or anything, you are one of those
actors that we immediately said I'm watching because you've given

(01:39):
us so many cultural classics, and again from me from
my podcast, from the culture, we do want to say
thank you for everything that you have poured into entertainment
and just what you put into this world because it
is truly, truly, truly appreciated from everybody.

Speaker 1 (01:55):
Oh, thank you so much. That is very kind.

Speaker 3 (01:59):
Thank you, No problem, no problem.

Speaker 2 (02:01):
So yeah, So my first question that we were trying
to get into do my first introduction to you was
actually Dangerous Minds, and I did want to know, like
with a movie like Dangerous Minds when it came out
and it captured the world, and then being adapted into
a TV show, what was that like for you?

Speaker 3 (02:18):
Going into that role?

Speaker 1 (02:20):
It was like the biggest blessing ever, because that's what
I've been praying for. I wanted a TV show. I
wanted a TV show, and I in my mind, at
that young tender age of twenty, I really thought, because
it was based off of a hit movie, that we

(02:41):
had a sure shot, you know what I mean, Like
we were in and we did you know, the pilot
got picked up and it was exciting for me because
even though Michelle Peiper was not playing, you know, the lead,
Annie Potts was, and I grew up watching Annie Potts

(03:02):
from Ghostbusters and uh sick was no, I'm pretty in
pink with Molly Rainwall, Like that was my girl, you know,
So to be working with her, I was extra excited
and honored. And then I got on a major network.
To have your first TV show on a major network, ABC, Yeah,

(03:28):
I was like, I gotta bring my a game every
single day. I gotta be on time, I gotta know
my life. I gotta know where to stand. I need
to know where everybody else is standing. Like I I
probably studied the hardest ever on that show because I

(03:48):
wanted it to work.

Speaker 2 (03:50):
Yeah, And we can tell because, like I said, when
I when I, when I see your interviews and even
hear you talking about just your acting journey in general,
you do seem like a person who is really like
a student of the game, Like you really focus on
like learning, you know, not only your lines and your roles,
but is actually learning like what is this scene supposed

(04:10):
to be?

Speaker 3 (04:11):
What are we trying to you know, portray here?

Speaker 2 (04:13):
And it's one of those things that I admire when
I get to you know, really like deep dive into
actors such as yourself, that type of drive, what did
that come?

Speaker 1 (04:23):
Mmm, that drive? I think I was born with that
and I inherited the rest from my grandmother, my late grandmother,
missus Olivia Laverne Jones. She's she's born and raised in Mississippi.
Her folks was near the bord of Louisiana, Mississippi. So
that's that was both on my mom's side, we was Louisiana, Mississippi.

(04:47):
And my grandmother, being the southern woman she is, she
was always out in the yard working, and she was
a foster mother too. She took care of foster kids.
She had her own eight kids of her own and
then and then became a foster parent. And my grandfather,

(05:07):
I can just he died when I was twelve, but
I can just remember all he wanted was a play
of food and some beer. He just loved My grandma.
Let her just go and do whatever she needed, whatever
she asked for. It was like yes, yes, baby, you know,
but it was her, you know, always like, don't wait

(05:29):
on other people to do things for you, get up
and do them yourself. Do some research you don't know,
go to the library, that's what that's for. Ask some questions.
Don't act like you ever know everything. Because you don't
and you'll never stop learning until you die, So don't everything,
you know, And I still hold that deer near to me.
You know, her words echoed throughout my entire existence, as

(05:53):
they should.

Speaker 2 (05:53):
You know, we got the elder people in our lives.
You know, they they they get they get to that
age for a reason. And you know when they dropped
those those nuggets of wisdom you got, you gotta latch
onto it. And you know because you can apply it
to so much parts of your life and it's just
one of those things that it's like, yeah, and it
shows through your work. So I guarantee you, like said,
you're definitely living you know with those words that they

(06:16):
that they told you. Now moving forward, like I said,
my next thing that I was like, you know, where
I really was, like where I became the Tamila Jones
fan was Booty Call because you were so funny in
that role. But that whole cast and that whole that
whole cast was just hilarious. You're the comedic timing was perfect,

(06:38):
the scenarios was was crazy, And I just want like,
with that movie, what do you remember most about filming
that movie?

Speaker 1 (06:47):
Everything? Everything that was like the biggest thing I was
I had ever done at that moment, you know, and
I hadn't even gotten started on Dangerous Minds that we
shot the pilot when I got cast in Booty Call,
so I was waiting to find out big dup or not.

(07:10):
But I went on to shoot Booty Call, and you know,
I had just I think i'd like maybe a month
or two before, had done one of the last episodes
of The Fresh Prince of bel Air, and Will told me,
you know when when the show is over and all
the cast members come out and bow. At that time,

(07:33):
he told me you're gonna You're gonna be a star.
So smash cut. Two months later, I'm going to my
callback on the Sony lot for a Booty Call and
I hear someone say Tamla Tela. I turned around and
it's Will. He's shooting the first man in black on
the Sony lot. He's doing like some behind the scenes

(07:55):
stuff and he was like, you going up to see
Jeff Pollock, And I was like, yeah, He's said, I'm
gonna put in a good word for you, And in
my mind is like, how does he know? And I'm like, dug.
Jeff Pollock was an executive producer on A Fresh Prince.
So now gonna go in there and really be good
because Will's gonna put in a word for me. So

(08:16):
I go in and before I could get home to
Pasadena because that's where I was still living, they told
me I had the job. And I was excited and
nervous at the same time because it was like boom
boom boom package stuff. You're going to Canada, you know, like,
oh god, I've never been anywhere outside of America. I
didn't even have a passport, I mean Mexico because we

(08:39):
used to go down to TJ. You know, we lived
in California, but that was it, you know. So then
there was the meeting of these titans, Jamie Fox and
Tommy Davison who I had watched all through in Living
Color until it went off the air, which was right
before Booty Call and Vivica from Out All Night with

(09:03):
Patty Lavelle and Morris Chestnut. You know, I was like,
oh God, you know, like, damn, you really gotta show
up on this. I was so nervous. I had the
bubble guts, and they send Vivica to come and get
me from the hotel room because we were doing a
tail read and I was like, I'm coming. I'm just

(09:26):
really nervous. I broke out. I had zits everywhere it was.
I had really, you know, scorpio. So we're just extra
what everything. I really had put myself into a position
where it didn't even need to be because when I
came downstairs, it was all love. It was all love.

(09:46):
Tommy and Jamie started giving me, you know, after the
table read, different things I could try when we shoot
the scene, say the line like this, make sure you know,
oh that'll be funny if she do da da da da.
I'm like, okay, I'll do it. Whatever you guys say,
I'll do. And then you know, Vivica getting me, getting
me ready. She took me out, she took sushi, she

(10:07):
took me to get wine. I learned how to order wine.
I ordered my first glass of red wine because at
that time I'm twenty one. I just turned twenty one,
and I ordered a glass of Merlotte Viva. Was like,

(10:28):
it's merlotwna, so you know. And then the time that
we were all up in Toronto, I met Don Cheatle
and his wife, I met Eric LaSalle, Darryl Child, Mitchell,
It was like all of Black Hollywood at that time
was up there in Canada shooting something. You know, we
were all up there shooting different projects, but we were

(10:50):
all up there around the same time, and I played
spades with Don Cheedle, and you know, I'm like, oh
my god, what is going on here? But Booty Call
was the hands down the best experience of my entire
career because it was the first big thing and it
was with people who I admired and I had been

(11:12):
fans of, and they were all so nice, so nice.
I'm tell you, Vivica had my back, honey. I never
had per diem because I never was anywhere outside of
the United States or California shooting anything. So when we
got our money, Tamala went to go spend it all

(11:35):
on York Street in Toronto and wherever else, and then
we'll go to Vimica, like, Vivica, let me borrow some
money until we get our next part per diem. She's like, Tamiala,
you spent two thousand dollars already. I'm like, yes, girl,
because you know, I didn't know.

Speaker 3 (11:50):
It's like hey, you know.

Speaker 1 (11:53):
I'm like it's free money. We get some more, you know.
I just was such a child. But I had the
best time, and I learned so much from Jamie Fox,
from Tommy, from Vevica, stuff that you can't pay to
go to school for, you know.

Speaker 2 (12:09):
Yeah, you know because I one of the interviews that
I was listening from you said that you didn't think
that you was going to get that role, and I'm like,
I can't imagine anybody else in that role, like because
the way and again, my this is my part of
my introduction to you, right, so you always had these
comedic chops that were on par with Jamie Fox, you know,

(12:32):
Tommy Davison and every everything like that because of this
type of role. So when I see you in other things,
I'm like, of course, Tamila's bringing it, because like she
out the game, was bringing that, you know, and so
it's one of those things that it's like, it blows
my mind that you even didn't think that, like you
thought that you wasn't going to get that role because
it seems like it was fit perfectly for you.

Speaker 1 (12:53):
I really didn't because there's so many girls coming in
and out of that room. You're sitting in hallway full
of actresses you've seen and they were great they they're
great at everything that they do, and you're you're auditioning
with them, so you leave like, I'm only gonna do
the best thing I can and probably not gonna get
it anyway, but I at least I do the best

(13:15):
thing I can. And you know what, I still have
that same attitude.

Speaker 3 (13:22):
Hungry though, but it keeps you hungry, you know.

Speaker 2 (13:25):
Yeah, So you talked about you know, like you know,
at that time, there was so much of Black Hollywood,
you know, filming in Canada and Black Hollywood at that time.
The one thing that I used to love is like
you know, again, this is the geek Set podcast, so
we're nerds and geeks and stuff like that. So we
talk about like how Marvel like they have like you know, cameos.

Speaker 3 (13:45):
And Easter eggs.

Speaker 2 (13:46):
Right, yes, time, I'm talking about everybody who was anybody
in Black Hollywood. You will see them on Fresh Prints,
you will see them on Martin, Malcolm and Addie, you
will see them on Girlfriends. Like they just pop up everywhere,
you know, from that nineties to the early two thousands.

Speaker 3 (14:04):
And I always love to.

Speaker 2 (14:05):
Kind of get stories from you know, actors and actresses
from that time. What was that time of Black Hollywood,
like for you during that explosion.

Speaker 1 (14:14):
First of all, you just have to understand coming from me,
I'm born and raised here in California and Pasadena, and
I decided I wanted to become an actress in the
sixth grade, you know, because I'm seeing Lark Voorhees and
Jalil White who go to my school. They they're on TV.

(14:36):
I need to do this, you know, this is, this is,
this is. I'm doing the opening of Fame, the Debbie
Allen Fame in the in the backyard every day singing Fame,
you know, with my cousins. We're jumping and doing splits
in the air like I needed it. So once, you know,
my family had a catering business and we catered house party.

(15:00):
A friend of a friend hooked us up. So once
we got on the house party set and my mom
met up with Tisha Campbell's mom, who is Tisha's manager
or was, I'm not sure if she still is. She
asked Tisha's mom a bunch of questions like how can
I get her started, you know, and her mom gave

(15:20):
us the playbook. And because of Tisha Campbell's mother and Tisha,
I'm here I'm able to. They gave me the thing
to do acting classes, headshots. She needs to study people.
You know, Talent scouts come looking for talent all the
time in those classes. So we did it. And like

(15:41):
one of my workshops, there was a talent scout who
came there and she said, I'm going to put you
on a trial. And this is like maybe two or
three months after our meeting with Tisha and her mom.
This is happening for me, and she puts me on
a trial. I booked the first commercial that she sent

(16:01):
me out for, and that was an IBM commercial and
I got to take three of my friends from school
to come and be in the commercial with me as
my friends in the commercial and they got paid too.

Speaker 3 (16:13):
I love that.

Speaker 1 (16:16):
But yeah, like anyway, I got lost. But it's just
been a joy. It really really has. And Tisha Campbell
and her mom, they were definitely the reason that there
was a start of Tamala here.

Speaker 3 (16:30):
Hey man, shout out black moms, you know, because the
black mom's always gonna find a way, you know. But again,
like I said, because you did pop.

Speaker 2 (16:38):
Up on a lot of those shows, like you said,
you was at that final season of Fresh Prince bell Air.
You you would pop up on all these shows. Was
it just more so like like the star requesting or
is just that circuit of auditioning?

Speaker 1 (16:52):
No, it was. Let me tell you. The Warner Brothers
lot building one point thirty four used to be popping.
It looked like a doctor's office. Okay, like the window
was there, and there was like maybe ten casting directors
in the back, and you're all sitting in this waiting
room and it's this different shows that you're auditioning for.

(17:14):
You know. And Geraldine Leader, who's I don't think she's
casting anymore. She's retired. And I talked to her sometimes
via Instagram. Listen, I was in her office. Leah Daniels Butler,
the cast and lady she used to be an assistant
for Geraldine. You know. So I know these people from
back in the day. I know all the actresses from

(17:35):
back in the day, the Warner Brothers. Luck we all
auditioned for the same stuff. And I was the type
of actress that would tell my other actress friends, hey,
you need to call your agent. And because I was
in the audition and I saw that they auditioned X,
Y and Z, and I saw so and so you
need to get your you know, like we would all

(17:57):
share the information, and yeah.

Speaker 3 (18:01):
That's what that's to me.

Speaker 2 (18:03):
That could win because you hear about old time Hollywood
and they kind of had that type of camaraderie you
know at that time, right. Yeah, So it's one of
those things where you I mean, you know, it's a
dog eat dog world in so many places. So I
love when I especially when I hear us sharing that information,
not gatekeeping, trying to help put people on And I

(18:23):
feel like we're getting a lot of that now because
you know, I missed that era of you know, upings,
the see the you know TJ Fridays, I mintion. Like
I said, I missed those days where we had movies
where it's just like a day, you know, Friday was
a day. It was just a bad day and night,
and we all could relate to it, you know when

(18:44):
we see Booty Call. You know, even at my young age,
I'm like, no, this just this seemed like something I
see my uncles do, right, And so it's like I
feel like now, like what we're getting back to it.
Before a long time, we got away from just a
good black story that the culture could relate to and
that's the that's that's one of my that's one of

(19:06):
my favorite eras of TV and movies.

Speaker 1 (19:09):
Yeah, well, I really feel like it's it's coming back
around again. For sure. You got new blood out here,
you know, Tyler Perry's mister b E t h. He
got that a lot, and he's doing a beautiful job.
And Netflix too. I can't just say bt. He's all
over the place. You got Ryan Coogler giving us gems,

(19:32):
you know, from all of the comic book stuff, Black
Panther down to Sinners. Honey. He he's coming with the heat.
Jordan Peel. You know, we have and and and then
we still have our Titans, Yvette Lee Bowser, you know,
we we still have. It's just expanding, it is, and

(19:53):
and I hope that, like you, you know, that the
youth coming up can integrate the elders such as the
Vet Lee Bowsers and you know, the Eric Lassalle's, people
that have been directing and producing and in doing a
thing for the longest, who you can gain a lot

(20:14):
of knowledge from.

Speaker 3 (20:15):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (20:16):
No, absolutely, Yeah, I'm a student of the game, you know,
I'm Yeah, I'm a voice acting myself. Try my hand
at acting, you know, still trying, you know, working with
my agent and everything, trying to you know, get my grounds.
But and that's kind of like what birth Like a
lot of things that birth me even doing this is
because one, I'm a researcher, I'm a student of the game,
and you know, I'm always trying to be as innovative
as possible. But again, I also I got tired of

(20:39):
when you know some of our you know, our our
heroes and our figures, and you know our entertainers when
they pass, and then that's only that's the only time
you start seeing people like, oh man, I was such
a big fan of this person and.

Speaker 3 (20:51):
Everything, and I'm like, I get it.

Speaker 2 (20:52):
Like I'm not knocking anybody for doing it, but I'm like,
I want to be part of the collective of people
that are telling people while they're here, because you know,
you guys are so often on that grind, you know,
you are booked and busy and steady working that sometimes
you don't get a chance to stop and smell those
flowers at that time. So it's just one of those
things like, oh, I'm a person that I'm like, I'm

(21:14):
very optimistic, I'm very overly positive. So I'm like Hey,
I'm that person that I'm gonna tell them when I
see them and everything.

Speaker 3 (21:21):
Yeah, it's just it's great.

Speaker 1 (21:24):
We love that though, because we don't, I know, us
old school are us old heads? We don't. We have
constantly been on the grind. We don't stop and smell
our flowers enough, you know, So thank you for doing that,
because it's you know, I am addicted to this industry.

(21:45):
I mean the art of acting. I should say not
the industry, but the art of acting. I'm addicted to
being on set. If I'm not on there and some
time has passed and I feel like it's too long,
I get into stuff like a bad little kid.

Speaker 3 (22:02):
You know.

Speaker 1 (22:04):
It's tied to regroup and put her back, you know.
Like I love working, and I love meeting new people
and hearing their stories. What got them here? Why are
we here together right now? You know? And I love
meeting people that I've always admired, like Andy Garcia and
working with them. You know, Diane Carroll I got to

(22:28):
meet while she was still here, you know, like Jennifer Lewis,
I've worked with her a million times. And I love
Loretta Devine, you know, like, yeah, the true Pam Greer.
You know, like so many that I've met that are
just outstanding artists and human beings.

Speaker 2 (22:51):
No, absolutely, absolutely. So you're also, like I said, you
got a new movie coming out, and you know, the
one thing that I really love about black culture so
much is that is that when it comes down to
holiday movies or just like that's like we don't play
about our holidays, Thanksgiving, Christmas, We're gonna get the like,

(23:11):
we don't play about that. And there's so many movies
that is like, oh man, you know what, this actually
just captures a really good you know, a good story
or a funny story anything. And so tell me about
worst Christmas. It's the worst Christmas or worst Christmas ever.

Speaker 1 (23:27):
It's hashtag worst Christmas ever.

Speaker 3 (23:29):
Yeah, worst Christmas ever. Tell me about worst Christmas ever.

Speaker 1 (23:32):
So this is based on a true story.

Speaker 3 (23:36):
I mean that I didn't know.

Speaker 1 (23:39):
Yes, I've been getting a lot of those movies lately.
But this is a comedy and it happened to one
of our directors. We have two directors on here. We
had Tony and we had Maurice. This is actually Tony's
story of you know, being divorced and trying to come
together to spend Christmas with the kids. But the kids

(24:01):
are asking you to come and the come to house
is your ex wife with her new fiance, you know,
and your kids want you to spend Christmas there. You're like,
but why, you know what I mean? And then you
know he had some friends, you know, that were his

(24:23):
like go to friends. I'm gonna go get some support
from them. Maybe I can stay with them. And that's
where I come in. Cynthia, and then Bill Belmy is Larry.
We're the Vans and we are very much into Christmas

(24:43):
from Tony and one of his good friends. And the
wife is like that. She has a train set that
she sets up and it's a new faith every year
in Christmas Field. And that's all I'm gonna tell you.
The movie is great. It's about love, it's about sa
Redvice is about the holidays. It's funny. It is funny

(25:04):
through and through, but it also has a cute message
to it too. So I really want everyone to go
check this out. Taja Simpson being the beautiful goddess that
she is, executive producing this and starring in it along
b J Britt, who I love. I did another Christmas
movie with him, and then a reunion with Bill Bellamy.

No, but I did do the White Christmas one year though,
and I love the snow. So my friends and I
we've rented a cabin in Big Bear. Took the dog
up there, and I spent like maybe five days up
in Big Bear. And there's like a little a theme

(27:00):
park up there with a roller coaster and then they
have like the skiing heels and then I did the
white Teeth people thing and I got into jacuzzi in
the snow and it was great. I was like, okay, y'all,
I see what. Yeah, but it was great and I

(27:23):
got to see. You know, I always thought in in
cartoons when they talked about snowflakes, they would show them
and they'd be all these beautiful different shapes. I thought
that was just the cartoon, you know, Like I'm seeing
the snowflakes come down. I'm like, it's real.

So it wouldn't take you long to get to some
tropical place.

Speaker 3 (28:19):
It would have take me too long. It would take The.

Speaker 2 (28:22):
One thing that I absolutely love about the culture is
that it's still embedded in black culture.

Speaker 1 (28:27):
Mike still rock Dumps or Jordan's And they also talked
about Batman versus Superman. Batman and super Superman is literally
brown versus Georgan.

Speaker 3 (28:36):
Dragon ball Z.

Speaker 2 (28:38):
That would like my whole trajectory and life changed.

Speaker 3 (28:42):
Don't nobody talk to me. My ship is on. We
just experiencing. It looks like it's gonna be real.

Speaker 2 (28:52):
Neat the elevation from where King Vader started to now.

Speaker 3 (28:58):
Black geek culture helped me some of the highs of
my life.

Speaker 2 (29:01):
For some of the loves of my life, It's always
been there, sort of like an undercurrent to everything I did.

Speaker 3 (29:06):
There was no term for it, there was no it
was just this is what I'm doing. I love us
in it.

Speaker 2 (29:13):
I love the fact that we take things and we
always make it better. So all right, So I got
a couple of fun questions because you know, I told
you I'm a researcher.

Speaker 3 (29:30):
The biggest thing that shocked me about you was you said.

Speaker 2 (29:33):
That you are nerd and you play Mortal Kombat, And
I said, wait a minute, what it?

Speaker 3 (29:41):
And I love that.

Speaker 1 (29:44):
Yes I do. I am a big nerd. A lot
of people don't want to believe that, but I meant
to butterflies. I birth them, I get the little caterpillars,
and I watched them grow and sometimes it's like, right now,
if I did it, I would let them live in

(30:04):
the house, you know, because it's too cold. But yeah,
and I'm into video games, and I'm into vintage video games.
You know, I'm not into these new I'm just I
just can't do it, you know what I mean. Like
I'm told school, I'm into Finish and I'm into Miss

(30:26):
pac Man or the regular pac Man Centipede asteroids. I'm
into uh, Super Mario Brothers, like you know that That's
where I get my joy, you know what I mean.
I feel like, was it Cubert, Well he got all
my nerves. I was like done with you. But yeah, Tetris,

(30:48):
Like I'm into the retro you know, Atari games. If
you got some Atari's, let me get on that.

Speaker 2 (30:58):
Oh so much studio we have we have all we
have a ton of retro gaming.

Speaker 1 (31:03):
You know.

Speaker 2 (31:04):
That's the one thing that we that you know, we
I wanted to build with our set when we built.

Speaker 3 (31:09):
This studio was I wanted to kind of have it.
When people walk in, they have like a nostalgia moment.

Speaker 2 (31:14):
So I love when I get to when people come
to the city, like a lot of comedians or whatever
the case, I'll invite them to do like an in
person interview, and when they walk in, I was like,
I wan't no matter where you look, you see something
of nostalgia. So like I got like et over here,
buzz light the year, I got book stuff. I just
got just a whole bunch of cultural things. But retro

(31:35):
gaming is like one of my favorite things to do.
Like I love playing those old school.

Speaker 3 (31:39):
Games and everything.

Speaker 1 (31:41):
I love it too.

Speaker 2 (31:42):
So like was that just more so like Tamala on
her personal time or was it more so like family.

Speaker 3 (31:49):
Got you into it? Like I guess no.

Speaker 1 (31:52):
No. I come from Pasady, Ina, California, and I did
play Atari growing up. I begged for an Atario for Christmas,
you know, and then where I love to play video games.
My my mama and my grandma, you know, they liked
to go do their little shopping and have their little

(32:12):
girls time and whatever and get away from the kids,
so as much as they could. They dropped all of
us off at the Girls and Boys Club of Pasadena,
and it was a whole arcade, yea, and there with
the pool tables and all that. So I know how
to play pool, I played all those video games. I
know how to do the little arts and crafts, a

(32:34):
little archery, all that, because they sent us to their
summer camps as well to get rid of us during
the summer, and when one camp ended, we went to
another until it was time to go to school.

Speaker 2 (32:48):
I'm very familiar with with the Boys and Girls Club
and my pops he was also like, you know, back
in the nineties, I feel like date night. The pool
hall used to be a thing of like not no more,
but he used to be a thing. So my pops,
my mom's they used to.

Speaker 3 (33:01):
Always go to the pool hall.

Speaker 2 (33:02):
So of course he would teach us how to play pool,
and so I would be at the Boys and Girls
Club low key being a pool shark, hustling for a dollar.

Speaker 4 (33:11):
Here.

Speaker 1 (33:13):
God, you're terrible.

Speaker 2 (33:18):
So another big part of the of the geek world, though,
because you did have a little bit of you know,
exposure to it. When you was a part of Castle,
and I wanted to talk about that, Like, I mean, obviously,
I said, You've been a part a whole lot of
movies and a whole lot of cold following movies and entities,
but being a part of something like Castle, where like
you you got you doing panels of people breaking down

(33:41):
your character like at comic Con and everything being that
show like that?

Speaker 3 (33:45):
How was that?

Speaker 1 (33:47):
That blew my mind? Comic Con blew my mind. I'm
gonna tell you that, Like I've never seen such a
huge group of people rest as their favorite characters and
having some of the most inquisitive conversations with us, you know,
Like I Comic Con is hands down, by by far,

(34:11):
one of the best comic con cons that you can
go to.

Speaker 3 (34:14):
I'm like, it's so good.

Speaker 1 (34:16):
But being a part of Castle was life changing. It
really opened up so many different doors I never even
looked into or thought about comic book you know, they
turned us into a comic book strip, and then we
got we got turned into a video game. You know,
Like I was like, Yo, where is my Jack? No,

(34:40):
I'm kidding. I was so happy to be in it,
you know, like I was like, this is it? This
is what I'm talking about, you know. And it was
like the It was like Scooby Doo and the Mystery Gang.
It was like the gang. We were all solving the
mystery and the crimes, and we all had our own

(35:00):
parts of how we broke the things down, you know.
And Castle and Beckett were like Fred and Daphne when
of y'all gonna hook up, you know. But it was like,
it was such a beautiful experience. And again I prayed
for that. I prayed for a show that went into

(35:21):
syndication that I would love to be on, something that
challenged me. And it did all those things. I never
played a doctor. I had to learn all of those
things on my own, studying and pronouncing and it it
was very tedious.

Speaker 3 (35:39):
Yeah yeah, Well, what was you gonna say?

Speaker 1 (35:43):
I said, I had a good time.

Speaker 2 (35:44):
Oh, I can tell. I can definitely tell. So I
want to introduce you. Have you heard of Blurred Con.

Speaker 3 (35:50):
Or dream Con?

Speaker 1 (35:51):
No?

Speaker 2 (35:52):
Okay, so imagine comic con but full of us so
Blurred Con so Blurred is the you know, combination of
black nerds what do we call ourselves? Blurds and dream
Con is ran by this collective called our DC World. Right,
and they do a lot of sketches online. But it's
a black convention really ran by black folks. So you

(36:13):
know how when you was at and the last the
last dream Con, I want to say, they had about
one hundred and twenty something thousand people there in Houston,
Like it's crazy. And the one thing that I love
is that one you know, when we do things, we're
gonna do our flavor on it, right, So you'll see
you'll see a daph Need, but she might have a

(36:33):
big fro. You know, you'll see somebody dressed as a
Mortal Kombat character, but they got a little bit of
slag to a little bit dream to it. And then
what I love the most is that you know at
Comic Con they have like all those main stages like
this is the cast those stage, this is the Batman stage.

Speaker 3 (36:49):
You talk to the cast. We're having those stages.

Speaker 2 (36:52):
With a lot of our black creators, a lot of
our black actors, a lot of our you know, just
like in general and being able to last year's Dream Con,
we had the whole cast of the Boondocks doing a
Boondocks reunion up there, and it's just one of those
things that you're like, we're not gonna get this anywhere
else but in this black convention, and you're seeing people

(37:13):
dressed as characters, you're seeing people in cosplay. And I've
been making it a point because I've been fortunate enough
to like interview people like you, to try to tell people, hey,
if that come across your agent's name or or anything,
and somebody says, hey, I think dream con wants you
to make an appearance.

Speaker 3 (37:33):
Look into it dream Con or Blurred Con. Those two
you will love it.

Speaker 1 (37:37):
I guarantee you what listen dream Com and Blurred Com.
If you're listening, call me because I want to come through. Okay,
I never even knew that that existed.

Speaker 2 (37:49):
Wow, you know it's so when I did the podcast,
when we started this podcast, because I'm again, I'm a
person that I love a lot of these things, comic books, anime,
video game and when I would watch a movie, I
would watch the other podcast breaking it down.

Speaker 3 (38:05):
So this is kind of like a little brief history
about who I am with my journey.

Speaker 2 (38:10):
Because when I started the podcast, Black Panther was just
coming out and that urst yeah, and that first commercial
that came out it was Black Panther, but they had
this hip hop group called Run the Jewels which is
killing Mike's group on the commercial, and nobody was talking
about that aspect, and I said, wait, y'all don't see
how dope this is that the first black superhero under

(38:31):
Disney has this like underground.

Speaker 3 (38:34):
Hip hop crew on their commercial.

Speaker 2 (38:35):
And I said, that's what I want to bring to
the podcast space. I want to talk about hip hop
and everything like that. So I just wanted to be
per person talking about it. And then when I found
out about Blurred Con and dream Con and when I
stepped foot on there, it opened my eyes to this,
how much like how dope we are? And I said,
I'm I need to be the loudest person spreading everybody

(38:57):
about this.

Speaker 3 (38:57):
I need everybody to know about this.

Speaker 1 (39:00):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (39:01):
Yeah, so I will. I will make sure. I will
make sure the people that I know over there.

Speaker 2 (39:06):
I'm gonna try to put a bug in there, like, hey,
Tambala wants to get here.

Speaker 1 (39:10):
I want to see. I need to be there. I
want to come there and I want to lay eyes
and then I want to talk about it.

Speaker 3 (39:16):
Oh yes, yes, yes.

Speaker 1 (39:18):
Talk about it. You know what a beautiful thing for
us to be able to do because you know what.
I got teased so so much growing up because I
was always like acting or playing different characters, you know,
like talking to my friends as chetup dolling. It's not
that serious, you know, and they're like, you're such a weirdo,

(39:39):
you know, when you're growing up in high school or whatever.
But to know that there is a place for people
like me to.

Speaker 2 (39:47):
Oh my god, so I want can we talk about
your iconics move.

Speaker 3 (39:56):
Back sine cover real quick? Oh my god, I would I.

Speaker 2 (40:01):
Growing up, I was the person that took the magazine photos,
put them on the wall and everything like that. And
I gotta let you know that Smoo magazine cover was
definitely on that wall.

Speaker 1 (40:14):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (40:15):
What do you remember about that shoot?

Speaker 1 (40:17):
I remember that I met the owner of the magazine
and I had no idea she was this beautiful Caribbean
Jamaican woman who owned Smooth magazine. So that is number
one for me. I'm my girl, hats off. I thought
it was like some guy who you know. It made

(40:38):
it even even easier, you know, And she was directing
the photographer the entire time on what she wanted to capture,
the things she thought were beautiful. I was grateful for
that I was grateful. I did say some things, and
I have to clear this woman's name because she's not

(41:01):
a liar. I said some things because at the time
I had some breast enhancements, right, and I was joking
when I said it, but I was on a show
that you can't joke like that and say, and they
were asking me about them, and I'm like, yeah, and
I can't wait to show these babies to you guys.

(41:23):
So anyway, my manager and the show basically it was like, yo,
does she say that? And I was like, I did
say that, because you know, we were playing. You can't
say stuff like that. So I had to lie and say, no,
that's not what I meant. And you know, because other
interviewers and I really did not want to say that's

(41:46):
not what I meant. That is what the fuck I meant.
So he's my friends because sorry, it was new to me,
you know, and I was in a place at the
time I could be honest about that where the area
of self love was not complete. It was incomplete. It

(42:09):
was like here and there, you know. And that comes
from always being judged, being in this business since you're
fourteen years old, not really being able to be a
child at any point. You have to be professional, and
so you do things. You know, you take the advice
of other actresses to say, hey, if you do this,

(42:30):
you'll probably work more, which is what was told to me.
So then I go do it. And then I'm like,
I'm ready to put them on display, because isn't that
what it usually is After women get some sort of
enhancement done, they want to put it on display. So
I did say that, and I need to prove to
the world that that owner of the magazine and her

(42:53):
author where her author were not at all incorrect. They
quoted me on that. But again, it was all in
fun and I ended up having to deny it because
of the powers that be.

Speaker 3 (43:06):
Oh okay, it's one of those things.

Speaker 2 (43:09):
Is like I feel like if it was on a
different platform, everybody would have got it. Like I was like,
you know, like that's crazy that even but again, you know,
like you said, it was different times, different.

Speaker 1 (43:18):
Times, Yes, different times.

Speaker 3 (43:20):
I do also want to talk about it.

Speaker 2 (43:22):
So you had a good, a pretty decent like music
video run in some of the videos.

Speaker 3 (43:28):
It was like, wait a minute, like how did you
end up in the Wu Tang gravel pit video?

Speaker 1 (43:33):
So while I was auditioning in my youth fourteen fifteen whatever,
I did a lot of modeling. And then you know,
coming up in the era of black actress that I
came up in, that they did cast us. They casted

(43:54):
actors and actresses and music videos. That was a form
of our acting gig. You know, you look, you see
Terrence Howard in the Ashanti video, You'll see Lorenz ted you,
You'll see a lot of us, you know, in people's
music videos. I think Gabrielle was in ELL's video and
Gabrielle Union and maybe Joe's video I think maybe, or

(44:19):
Montel Jordan one of them. Anyway, that's they had casting
directors that cast us in that, and I got cast
in the Roots videos as Queen Amina, and you know
who knew well at that time, I had a name
for myself. So Jay Z's people wanted myself, Carmen, Electra Reagan,

(44:45):
Preston Gomez, and who else, Paula, Paula J. Parker. I think, yes,
we were all in there, so that was different. But
leading up to that and then the Wu Tang video,
they I forgot who called. They was like you got

(45:06):
to be on the set, like in a couple of hours.
I was like, okay, I will be right there. So
I did that. I didn't even know what it was for.
I didn't know. I just said, wu tang, I'm in it,
don't matter what it is. Am I getting the check? Yes, boom.

(45:27):
So then I get there and discover girl, you're gonna
be chained to some rocks with a mink bikinio.

Speaker 3 (45:39):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (45:40):
Okay, I really don't want this to go unnoticed. So
I was like, this will be my ode to Josephine
Baker except Glenstone. You know. So a lot of people
didn't like me after that. Yes, yeah, I got a

(46:03):
lot of hate on that, like why would you do that?

Speaker 3 (46:05):
Why?

Speaker 1 (46:06):
Why why would you get chained to a rock to
be in a rap video? You know? The haters back then.

Speaker 2 (46:12):
That was definitely hate because I was about to say
the music videos that you chose were with iconic artists, like,
you know, like jay z Wool Team fifty said, like,
these are artists that are icons within music industry. It
wasn't just like the most random you know, you know,
like and that's crazy, that's crazy that That was definitely hate.

Speaker 1 (46:34):
But that was back then. I'm pretty sure, those same
people have a different scope on things now, because that
was one of the highest budgeted music videos of that time.
I think it was like a two million dollars you
know for a music video. That's huge. And then you
had Joseph Kahan directing that, and you had boqin Woodbine on.

Speaker 3 (46:58):
The other side.

Speaker 5 (47:00):
Come on, you guys.

Speaker 1 (47:03):
It was definitely one for the books. And I got,
I got. They paid me.

Speaker 2 (47:07):
Well, you know, I've heard Wutang does good, good business
even in general, like they did.

Speaker 1 (47:12):
They paid me very, very very nicely for being chained
up there all that time, and they were very nice
and they were business as usual. They shot me out
and then it was like all right, moving on to
the next thing. It was like a factory there because
they had so much to cover that day. But it

(47:33):
was a great experience.

Speaker 2 (47:34):
No, Like I said, you've been a part of a
lot of iconic you know what I'm saying, music videos.
And but then also now this this one I didn't
know about, and I was like, I don't know, maybe
is this true or not? Is that you singing on
get By on the Alli and Gibson, Yeah.

Speaker 3 (47:50):
That is you.

Speaker 1 (47:53):
Did.

Speaker 2 (47:53):
So I need the story behind that. How did that happen?
Because I don't recall you doing music well.

Speaker 1 (48:01):
A thing that people don't know about me because I
don't talk about it. I've always been into all aspects
of art and growing up in Pasadena, I had a
good friend. His name is J. C. John Clay and
he was in a wheelchair, and a lot of people,

(48:28):
you know, they teased me for hanging out with him.
You know, kids can be very cruel, but he showed
me a lot of things. He got a record deal
and he decided to create this whole entire group with me,
his little brother. And there was another guy who was

(48:49):
a rapper, his name was Aj and this girl, Nidra,
she was the singer. And we were called the Hazy
Circus and we recorded. We recorded so many songs, and
he would never give me a copy, but.

Speaker 3 (49:06):
He would always.

Speaker 1 (49:08):
He would always play for me, and I loved it.
And then from that point on, I I got a
boyfriend and he was He lived on the East Coast
and he was the son of Cool from Cool in
a Game, and so he was working with me on
music too, and he was close with the Fujis at

(49:30):
the time. I think he took Lauren Heil to prom
and he was like, you need to We're gonna get
a groovey you needed. You need to be the rapper.
I was like, oh my god, I can't do all
that stuff that Lauren does. I was. I was like,
I can't. I need somebody to write.

Speaker 3 (49:44):
It for me.

Speaker 1 (49:44):
He was like, no, you gotta write. You gotta write
your own stuff. You gotta do. You gotta do what
she does. I'm like, oh my god. So my rapper
name with him was miss Endo okay, and I had
he wanted me to do. I think Biggie Small's had
did a song called Dreams of fn R and B Yeah.

(50:07):
So then he I did or respond to that, and
then we were too late because Little Kim. But anyway,
music got me those checks in between my acting gigs
or modeling gigs. Back in the day, I knew producers

(50:32):
that they were like, can you come and do a
background on this and that? So now smash cut to
me grown I'm I'm, you know, dating a gift from
the Goodie Mob and he, you know, decides to start
up a small group with Ali from from Nelly's group,

(50:52):
you know, and the Saint Lunatics and they were in
the studio and I'm just kicking it, you know, just
hanging out. I forgot what the heck I was doing there.
But there was like, we need a singer and we
needed to sound like this. And you know, I also
used to I could do voices, you know, so I

(51:13):
can imitate. I can mimic things. So they were like,
we want like a tea boss, and I was like,
bet so I played some tlcs and I was hearing
her voice and they wanted it raspy. So that's when
I did it. I did the same thing with Castle

(51:33):
for the Blue Butterfly. They said they wanted a Billy Holliday,
and I went and studied because I loved Billy anyway,
but I studied particular songs so I can get her.
And that's how I was able to do that. So
I could do it. I used to. I can't do
it anymore, but I used to do Rosie Perez like
and do the right thing. Was like do Rosie do

(51:57):
mart Simpson do do you know? So I'd be like, Mulkey,
you need to pay. I can't enjoy it anymore. You
need to take care of your responsibility. Mooky. That was
back in the day. I can't even do it. I
haven't done it in years, but I could do. Nobody
that has laid a finger on my butter finger. I

(52:18):
haven't done that in a long time either, but I
hadn't down back in the day. But like I said,
I could listen and then I could pick it up
and I could deliver it. So that's how I ended
up hold on long story and long Story, It wasn't sure,
That's how I ended up on I'm giving all these records.

Speaker 3 (52:38):
No, I love that.

Speaker 2 (52:38):
I love that with you being able to do like
just imitate like that, I'm surprised you don't do more
voice over roads.

Speaker 3 (52:44):
Like I feel like voice.

Speaker 2 (52:45):
Acting is definitely in your wheelhouse that, like you know,
especially like you see you know, people like Chree Summer
and Deborah Wilson and people you know who just are
able to tap into those type of things, like you
fit right in that mode.

Speaker 1 (53:00):
Well, I'm getting my feet wet and that. I recently
did a narrating job for Sarah's oil. Oh that's out,
So I narrate. I'm the older version of her telling
the story. So that is like my and I did
some cartoon voiceovers back in the day, but that is

(53:21):
my my segue into voice acting, because that thing is
like a mafia. You know, you gotta know somebody, to
know somebody. You can't just say I'm gonna do voiceover
cartoons today.

Speaker 2 (53:34):
You know, because because I do narrations for watch Mojo,
Like I'm, you know, one of the first black narrators
over here.

Speaker 3 (53:42):
And I told my agent, I said, I want to
do more character work.

Speaker 2 (53:45):
And I thought because watch Mojo is such a big channel,
and I was like, I'm doing these narrations, like, oh,
it'll be easy.

Speaker 3 (53:50):
You know, it's not like I did.

Speaker 2 (53:53):
I worked with a dialect coach recently on the project,
and it's just like even that process, it's like, whoa,
this is.

Speaker 3 (54:00):
This is not what I thought it was.

Speaker 2 (54:02):
I love it, I like, but I was like, you know,
you know, black people, we inherently believe that we could
do anything we put our mind to it. So at
that time, I'm like, oh, I'm just gonna jump on
the here I'm gonna be. It was like, oh no,
I gotta put the work in. Okay, yeah, all right,
all right, I want to get a top five out

(54:23):
of Okay, what is what is your What is Tamila's
Top five Black movies. And it doesn't and I give
you the caveat. It doesn't have to be in order
the top five Black movies that you were in that
I was in?

Speaker 3 (54:37):
Oh wow? Or what did you did? You already have
the one form the Regulars. If you have regular art's
go regular Top five Black movies. I'm gonna say, oh,
I can't go wrong with that.

Speaker 1 (54:49):
Got you gotta watch the Five Pats, any of the Fridays.
First Friday is my favorite, Okay. And then you said
to well, you know, two could play that game. Play

(55:13):
that game The Brothers.

because see they ain't had no black woman talk to them.
Y'all's dealing with these the white tea's. Then they be
trying to right and then you end up cutting their
fingers off or beaming them up to your ship. You're

(58:50):

as posmic as you are. As a matter of fact,
I'm even more powerful aliens. So what you're gonna do
is sit down and have some collar greens and some cornbread,
and we're gonna talk about your behavior and your little
flight things you got running around here, you know, and
then we're gonna come to an agreement or you're gonna
have to get your ass back and your ship and
