ChEls no big welcome to DNA, Thank you for having me.
Speaker 3 (10:03):
She's so soft spoken, you know we got it. Okay,
this is Jesus just making me look bad. My voice
is like so harsh and she's like yeah, hello. So anyway, okay,
now I want to start with her because I med
your bio. So at this girl at fourteen in the
(10:24):
basement of her home with her father, recorded an album
at fourteen years old.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
Go ahead, tell us about that.
Speaker 12 (10:32):
Yeah, it was all.
Speaker 11 (10:33):
It all happened very naturally, Like I have been begging
my dad to record with me for a long time,
but he worked like an office job, so he'd get
home like really late at night, and then he'd be
too tired. Yeah, and then one day, like my one
of my cousins who was my age came to visit
us and like she recorded a song with him. So
I was like, wait, this isn't making any sense, like
(10:54):
you can't say no to me anymore. And I was
like eventually he's like okay, like let's do it, you know.
And then after we did like our first song, he
was like, oh wait, you're actually.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
Good, so good. Oh my god.
Speaker 12 (11:08):
He wasn't one of.
Speaker 13 (11:08):
Those parents who like thought everything I did was amazing,
you know, like he was like wait oh. And so
then after that it was just like kind of just
every week it was just like a new song, and
I just loved it so much because I would just
like write and then we could go straight to the studio.
My dad would work on the songs like in the
middle of the night and then like show me them
(11:30):
in the morning, like I got. He got really excited
about it eventually, and then before we knew it, we
just had like song after song and we put on SoundCloud.
Speaker 11 (11:42):
It was under a different name. It was under the
name Bitter's Kiss. That was like what we used for
that project. And my uncle knew like one person in
the music industry and sent him my music and then
it was kind of like history after that, like like.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
He's a chain reaction, right, The way that it would
go would just be like a chain reaction.
Speaker 11 (12:04):
Correct, Yeah, because I think I was writing about these
like topics and just like these things that were people
were like, how was she writing about this at such
a young age, you know, And I think that really
like stood out to people and just yeah, like made
an impact for me in the music industry.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
What if you mind me action?
Speaker 4 (12:27):
Right?
Speaker 2 (12:28):
What like they gave it to somebody like what in
like up top like a record exec or was it
just somebody that basically was somebody just to listen to
your music and like a talent person or I mean
like an A and R.
Speaker 12 (12:43):
So he his name sat Bizla.
Speaker 11 (12:45):
He like he had radio stations when he was like
he's just been involved for a long time. He's done
a lot of different things and now he just like
does a lot of networking and music conventions. I just
knew a lot of people in the industry and just
like sent it around and people were just like interested
in meeting me, like managers and labels and stuff. It
(13:09):
was like a different time in the music industry where
people didn't care as much about like numbers.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
Or you know, No, it was all about it was
all about talent. When we got our first look when
we were younger, it was all about talent, and they
they would love to see a young artist come up more.
And now it's more of how many Spotify plays you've got.
But it's changing because all of those people that are
looking only at the numbers now they're getting, they're getting
(13:37):
taking off the offices now and they're rebuilding it. Like
twenty five is going to be the industry that we remember.
That's what a lot of them are actually telling me, actually,
the indoors.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
Yeah, but let me ask her a question too, because
you know, I know your story. When you started, you
were like what thirteen, twelve, twelve? Okay, sorry? So what
she started all studying such a young age, So like you,
you're fourteen years old, you're in school, right, and you
have this passion for singing and writing and stuff like that.
(14:10):
So do you think it changes a person at that age?
You know, I'm trying to say, like, she's not. You
were still doing the normal things that a fourteen year
old will do, you know, I'm trying to say, it's like, yeah, I.
Speaker 12 (14:26):
Don't think I ever really felt normal right.
Speaker 11 (14:31):
That man, Like I wasn't a normal kid, Like I
didn't care about going to parties, like I didn't care
about who was cool in my class, Like I was very, always,
very concerned about like broader issues, and I think like
just issues in the world, issues my family, issues, like
it always just hit me on like a very deep level,
(14:53):
and music just became my way to like express that.
Speaker 12 (14:57):
And I felt like really like myself in my music.
Speaker 11 (15:00):
So I think once I got signed to a record label,
that's when it was like I wasn't a normal I
didn't feel like I.
Speaker 12 (15:09):
Had to grow up quick.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
Yeah, no, definitely.
Speaker 3 (15:12):
Is that something that people like you or her would
regret though as you get older, Like.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
No, not even because when you really take a look
at it, you realize that, you know what I'm saying,
like you were born with a gift different. I don't
know if you feel this way, but I always felt
this way. I was born with a gift, I feel,
and it was something to transpire and I wish it
would it came to fruition my vision with the whole thing.
(15:38):
I don't know how, like you know what I mean,
I really want to know, like how you felt, but
my thing was kind of like it is what it
is now. You're playing with the big boys now, so
you got to grow up quick.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
But she's all grown up now. She looks grown up.
Speaker 11 (15:51):
Now, go ahead, Yeah, I think I think I like
my goal wasn't ever have a goal.
Speaker 12 (15:59):
I honestly really wanted to be like an.
Speaker 11 (16:01):
Actress when I was younger, Like I loved I did
musical theater, so I was wanting to be an actress.
Speaker 12 (16:06):
I didn't know it was going to be a singer.
Speaker 11 (16:07):
And then I started like writing songs. And I think
for me, it's like I've always just wanted to like
leave the world a better place than it was when
I got in it, and like I think helping people
and like is my biggest passion. And I've struggled with
like mental health, so I just like really like to
help people with that through my music.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
And so I love you go ahead.
Speaker 12 (16:36):
I just noticed like.
Speaker 11 (16:37):
That when I started singing and writing music, people were
like paying attention. So I was like, oh, like, you know,
I can maybe impact people or make a positive you
know impact this way, and.
Speaker 12 (16:49):
I think I have so far.
Speaker 11 (16:50):
But I think for me, it's like that's really like
I would just love to get to a place where
like I can really make a difference, not just with
my music, but like actually like team up with organizations
and like actually like do good for the world.
Speaker 12 (17:08):
So that's like my ultimate goal.
Speaker 3 (17:10):
I guess you know what she reminds me of. She's
a type of person who I feel like is if
she didn't have the singing, she would be like uh activists,
an activist or like a Diana, Princess of Wales, you
know that kind of person that goes around the country. Yeah,
you know, doing whatever she can to help her fellow man.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
Well, she felt like you can hear it though, Like
I was listening to some of the music too, man,
and when you hear it, your music has a message.
Like a lot of people don't have a message anymore.
You have a message everything that you have left, you
have left a legacy in there, like somebody from twenty
years later. And this is what I was trying to
accomplish too. Can listen to that song and you don't
(17:51):
even know the person, and you touch them because you
went through that, you know, years and years down the road,
and now they're finally seeing it and it's changing their
perspective to two different you know what I'm saying, into
a different mindset.
Speaker 3 (18:05):
Yeah, she's you know what I'm reading from her bier
and everything she's she's moving on up, but it's not
a progression for her that she really cares about. What
she's more worried about is the output, you know what
I'm trying. What do you mean, Well, she's not worry
how big the big the song gets or whatever, as
(18:26):
long as her song is putting out that message.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
Yeah, everything right. Honestly, I love the activism stuff because
I love activism. And I want to know another quick
question to ask you what label picked you up? Like
what labels were looking at you when you were younger.
Speaker 11 (18:45):
Oh, at one point I was like taking meetings with
all of them.
Speaker 12 (18:51):
What is so crazy?
Speaker 1 (18:52):
Like think like let.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
Him know, let about let's go.
Speaker 11 (18:58):
It was crazy like I was in high school, you know,
and I didn't like, did not expect this to happen
at all, you know. And I think I was choosing
in the end between like Island and Republic both are
on Universal, and I think, yeah, I ended up choosing
(19:20):
Republic and I was on there for two or three years.
Speaker 12 (19:27):
And it was just it was a lot.
Speaker 11 (19:28):
I mean, back then you got big budgets for everything
you'd be going to, like writing campus.
Speaker 4 (19:35):
What year was.
Speaker 12 (19:39):
Twenty seventeen.
Speaker 11 (19:41):
I think I officially like signed my deal in twenty seventeen,
so you will.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
Label me for what's the name? Definitely label meets with Hamilton.
Speaker 5 (19:50):
That's crazy.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
Yeah, But did you know she released an EP by
herself independently girl, I know, right in twenty nineteen when
she became independent, it amassed over twenty five million plays
on spotby.
Speaker 3 (20:06):
You say no more, go ahead? The silence is killing
me between you two right now.
Speaker 12 (20:14):
To say, yeah, it was.
Speaker 11 (20:16):
It was really cool, like because there was specifically like
the one song wrong kind of people that did really well.
But to be honest, it sucks because I it was
like right after I got like like I had to
get dropped from my label that this EP got released,
And I feel like like the getting like having to
(20:40):
leave my label really like was crushing for.
Speaker 12 (20:44):
Me at that age, you know, And I feel like
I didn't.
Speaker 11 (20:47):
Get to appreciate the success of my first EP because
I was just so kind of like crushed by the
whole thing. Like looking back, it kind of makes me
sad because I'm like, if that happened now, I would
be like, so, you know, but I was just not
mentally well as back then and I don't know, but
(21:10):
it did really show me that like happiness and like
mental health is like not always about like what is going.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
On in your life.
Speaker 2 (21:20):
You know, never blame yourself for what happened because you
got into the industry young. Okay. And this is somebody
who was in the industry young, who's seen his family
member who was one of the top artists because of
mental health. He didn't get to the point like he
always felt where he should have got. But he's happy
where he's at and he's an independent artist right now too.
(21:43):
So that's one thing I want to tell you. Never
feel like you left something behind, because that twenty five
streams by your million streams by yourself show that you
don't need a label behind you. You have a stronger message.
So just remember that, yeah, okay.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
And not only that, because it's it's the fact that.
Speaker 3 (22:03):
You don't need whatever you gained from all the steps
that you've taken from that first time in your basement
recording up until the record label and where you are now.
I think everything that's happened, all the steps along the way,
is your path.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
Yep. It's your ups and downs, and I feel like
you got honestly I feel like you got more in
the tank.
Speaker 3 (22:25):
Oh, she's got more in the tank. I could tell
by her songs. She's got a lot more in the tank.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
Now, my question to you is do you miss a label? Like,
did you miss a label for a look? Like I
remember if it's cool, I'm just talking to my mind
experience real quid. I remember when we found that homeboy
in the schoope let Homeboy go, And I remember everybody
was like, whoa is not? Everybody scrambling to go in
and try to do different things and stuff like that.
(22:51):
Like even when I lost my first one when Universal dudes,
you know what I'm saying, kept running.
Speaker 1 (22:56):
Around like a pattern with record labels or something.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
It's not that, man, It's said at the same time. Man,
you know it's it's it's it's a weird I'm not
gonna lie to you. It's a weird. It's a weird
mixture of things. And she knows what I'm talking about.
But you feel like you came out stronger right.
Speaker 4 (23:14):
Now.
Speaker 11 (23:15):
I feel like I'm just such a much healthier person
in general, and like I feel like I just really
am excited because I feel like the music I'm making
now is the music that I've always wanted to make,
and I'm doing it with my friends and that's like
really cool part about being independent is like you can
work with whoever you want to work with, Like I
(23:36):
love that. I think the thing is like as an artist,
like you have like you need time and space because
you have a lot of feelings and like you need
to create, you know, you need to constantly be creating
or else like you know, And I think the hardest
part about being an artist now it's just there's so
much to do that has.
Speaker 12 (23:56):
Nothing to do with the art.
Speaker 11 (23:58):
I think when I miss it, what I miss is
like just being able to focus on the music and
having the other stuff taken care of.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
But to be.
Speaker 11 (24:07):
Honest, I don't even think that's a label thing anymore.
I think that's like a twenty twenty five, twenty twenty
four versus twenty nineteen thing, because like I have friends
signed to major labels now, and like they still have
to do all the tic.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
Like all the kicktocks around. They have to do all
the what do you call theirselves for the same as
they got to do all the content, oh, you know,
the content. And I feel like you're right, you know,
what I mean, and label constants get you get mad
times too of the labels and stuff like that when
you look at them, because it's like, bro, this has
nothing to do with it, and they need artists development bad.
(24:43):
Yeah you know what I mean, because like you said,
years ago, you were in the camp writing camps and
all of that. Now they just go, Okay, he's famous
on tik Socke, he's famous here, put the money on
that project. But I'm glad now they're gone. All those
type of people that try to do everything half cut
and all that are finally gone.
Speaker 3 (25:01):
Yeah, thank god, because like what I what I see
is that she, like other artists that we have right
are ones. It's not even just about working hard. It's
about being themselves, being true to their craft, being true
to themselves, and being true just to the performance and
to the artistry of what they do. And you don't
(25:23):
get that a lot in one out of a million people.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
Well you can see she's a real artist. That's insane
that I want to get to some of her music
though right now, because I'm like excited, man, I'm like, whoa,
let's go.
Speaker 3 (25:37):
He's been playing that song all day, so anyway we
get love song in here have the video, but we
do have the music.
Speaker 11 (25:44):
So.
Speaker 14 (25:49):
Jackets and it doesn't as change something, magister, as you
told me how to be strong, that you how to
be kind and always get along, but tell me how
(26:12):
to go to talk.
Speaker 6 (26:13):
To you in my review.
Speaker 15 (26:15):
But you're waiting to.
Speaker 6 (26:22):
Have some baby, let you go.
Speaker 16 (26:29):
And if there's no farthings, maybe consent.
Speaker 15 (26:33):
So now that smy in the view general and she
loved some baby that you're God.
Speaker 14 (26:52):
We would tell you to know what it was worth
to have someone who still loves.
Speaker 6 (26:58):
You and you are your work.
Speaker 14 (27:00):
You pave with my heart, jumping myself first two halves
over how we couldn't make it work.
Speaker 6 (27:09):
You told me how to be shown, that taught you
how to be kind and always get along. To tell
me how to go to talk to you in my
review that you to bby, let you go and if
(27:33):
there's no fusing as maybe concern, let single thank you
old love some baby, let you go on?
Speaker 3 (28:12):
You know Okay, So anyway I had said this before.
I'm sorry I said this before.
Speaker 5 (28:18):
Let's go.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
She you know how many I'm not comparing you to
another artist, but it's what brings me back because a
lot of people that we have on the show. They
have you have such talent. I'll just tell you that
you have talent. And when it brought me back.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
Ahead to the days of Jewel, I could definitely see that.
I just that, I'm just I can't compare her because
she got such a different type.
Speaker 3 (28:46):
Of Again we're gonna argue again, No, we're gonna argue.
I'm not saying she's Jewel. I'm saying she reminds me.
Speaker 1 (28:55):
Of that Aura. That's soft spoken.
Speaker 3 (28:59):
You know, she's not like ah, you know, she's not
like thrashing anybody with her words. She's like very so spoken.
But the voice and the and the words are penetrating.
There's my word for the day.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
Penetrating. Go ahead, you can go.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
Said you sound different, you sound different.
Speaker 5 (29:19):
That's it.
Speaker 1 (29:19):
I can't.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
I can't put in you know, listen, man, I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
No, that's not her. I'm not saying it's it's different.
Speaker 2 (29:33):
I understand. Yeah, man, I understand why labels ran to
go and grab her. You hear her, and it's more soothing.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
You hear the music penetrating and soothing. You hear let
me write that down.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
Treating okay anyway, that's like to me, that's like all
right anyway, so we're not gonna get it, but anyway,
it just sounds something that it makes you feel good.
It brings a positive more vibe into the music, and
it's just something when you hear it, you want to
keep listening to it because you want it to feel good.
(30:06):
I can have a depressing day and then listen to
that record and wake me up, just like for real
with smile No no, no, yeah no really I like
that song more.
Speaker 12 (30:17):
And I like how you always say that because I
think that is like what music is for me.
Speaker 11 (30:21):
You know, Like I have a very turbulent mind and
I think way too much and music is like it's
my comment. It calms me down, Like it makes me
in that moment that I'm making the song or I'm
singing the song or whatever, like everything's okay, you know,
and like everything's gonna be okay. And I just like
(30:43):
that's how I want people to feel when they listen
to my music, like you're okay.
Speaker 12 (30:47):
And everything's going to be okay because it is, you know.
Speaker 11 (30:50):
And I think there's a lot of music out there,
especially to do with like guys, girls and whatever that's
just like very bitter, yeah, and negative, and it's just
not useful to be bitter, Like there's nothing good that
comes out of that, right, Like that's why it's like
it's such a simple line, like can I write you
a love song baby now that you're gone? But then
(31:11):
at the same time, it's like to be able to
still say like and remember the good parts and say
I love you to someone who maybe like hurt you
or you know, broke your heart is like so powerful,
and I think that's like the other thing I was
like I want to get across is like strength and power.
It is soft and like it is it's confident, and
(31:34):
it's like well spoken.
Speaker 12 (31:36):
It's not angry, you know.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
So she should write a book. I could listen to
her on an audiobook. Oh, absolutely, you should do an
audio book.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
Absolutely. That's another thing.
Speaker 1 (31:47):
I'm telling you. She has that voice that she even
just talking to her.
Speaker 2 (31:51):
I love when I hear that record, right, I love
that record because you can see a gloomy day. It
could be like the worst day, Like it could be
like straight up thunderwrit it could be a good Trina
and that song will come up and just bring the
sky back, you know what I'm.
Speaker 1 (32:04):
Saying, so I don't say sweet. Nothing's like that to me.
Speaker 2 (32:07):
It's a real record, Like that record. I feel like
I can have the worst day in the world and
listen to that record and then I go back to
just well, I could recharging myself. I could sing for
you my grief anyway.
Speaker 3 (32:19):
But you know what, you know what I love the
most is in this song when like certain notes or whatever,
when she does that, I love that. I just love
that that alone, that note alone.
Speaker 1 (32:31):
Gives me chills. It gives me chills. Just letting you
know you give me chills.
Speaker 2 (32:37):
I could definitely see the Jewel comparison.
Speaker 1 (32:40):
Yeah, I'm not talking the same voice or anything.
Speaker 2 (32:43):
No, no, no, no, that that kind of sound, that
kind of that kind of calmness, and then when it
comes out, it just strikes you, like you said, penetrating you.
But you never know where it comes from me, but
it makes you feel good.
Speaker 1 (32:53):
No, she always makes are you? Anyway? So I want
to get to one more more? If we can't, can
we do one more?

Speaker 1 (39:07):
Hold up, okay, I'm holding go ahead.

Speaker 1 (39:15):
She's got brains, you know.
Speaker 2 (39:16):
What I'm saying.
Speaker 11 (39:19):
Be able to like face rejection over it and over
and over again, and like not like and I think,
like it's not an ego thing. Like if you're like
just like building up your ego so high that you're
like no one can get me, like I'm the best
thing in the world.
Speaker 12 (39:38):
Like that's so gonna fade.
Speaker 11 (39:41):
Like you need to have this like really deep feeling
in your gut that like this is like the world
needs to hear you, like you have something to say,
and like it needs to be heard because like that's
the only thing that's gonna like nobody and nothing else
is going to sustain you for like as long as
(40:01):
it takes in this industry, and like how hard it
actually is to make it.
Speaker 1 (40:07):
It's like, no, I understand now, keep going. I'm sorry
I keep interrupting you.

like you know, there's been so many but I can
also say, like I'm very grateful for like the team.
It does also take, like a strong team around you
being like don't give up, don't give up. There's been
many times where I've been like I don't know I
should I go to college, like should I just become
(40:38):
a therapist or something that make me happy? Like, but
it's like over and over again, Like right as I'm
about to give up, something happens that's like, don't give up.
Speaker 12 (40:50):
Like the universe is like, don't give up, and I'm like.
Speaker 1 (40:53):
Don't give up.
Speaker 4 (40:54):

And hour was made for you, I just can't.
Speaker 1 (43:43):
I just can't.
Speaker 11 (43:45):
I just that's kind of like about what we were
just talking about, Like just like that that song and
that that video. Like the whole point was actually I
wrote it out of time when I was like really
questioning whether I should keep doing music, and that song
really resonated with me because it was just like like
when it says like I was made for you, I'm
kind of like talking about my art, I think in
(44:07):
that video. So yeah, yeah, I just shot that with
my friend, like no budget. We just like went and
had fun.
Speaker 1 (44:16):
So it was odd.
Speaker 3 (44:17):
Those are some that's sometimes the best moments is when
you're not really planning everything and you just kind of like,
you know, take it as it goes, and it's I
can't say enough about this girl too. I mean, thank you, Howard,
thank you Hollie. I love you, Hollie.
Speaker 1 (44:35):
You know I'm thank you.
Speaker 3 (44:37):
I am just so grateful for the people that we
have recently came across and are working with, and they
have brought us such inspiring artists.
Speaker 1 (44:50):
And I don't even want to say artists. I want
to say I don't know.
Speaker 3 (44:55):
I'm thinking of a word. Okay, I can't think of
a word. But they're just not artists. They're music makers.
Speaker 2 (45:03):
I don't I just creators.
Speaker 1 (45:05):
Creators, that's a good word. I like creators. They create.
They don't just sing, they create. That's a good one.
I like that.
Speaker 3 (45:13):
And I really thank you for that, I really do.
I mean, I can't say which song is my favorite
because I love them all. You know, every every song
that you've had that I've been sent and everything to
play has each one has a different meaning for me,
each one has a different story.
Speaker 2 (45:33):
I feel like you could feel your heart in those records. Yeah,
like you as an artist, right understand what I'm saying,
because I feel like you can feel your soul in
that record, like we see. You make it so easy
for the listener to see what you're seeing, your vision
in those songs. A lot of artists can't do that.
(45:54):
That's why they need certain videos, certain pushes, certain way
when you sing, you can actually close your eyes and
see your vision. That's very difficult to do as an artist.
Speaker 3 (46:07):
Yeah, we don't need that video because I can close
my eyes and you're already taking me there, you.
Speaker 2 (46:11):
Know what I mean, Like anybody can have that. You
make your record so easy for somebody to have the
same exact feeling that you have, basically the same experiences
and the same push, like you could just like I'm
hearing this, I'm like, wow, man, I'm thinking about this one.
I know this one's thinking about me, Isaiah. I'm saying. So,
(46:32):
it's crazy.
Speaker 1 (46:33):
You touch people's hearts more, do Yeah?
Speaker 2 (46:36):
You really do.
Speaker 1 (46:37):
Well you got us too, I'll tell you that right now.
Speaker 4 (46:39):
Thank you.
Speaker 12 (46:40):
That means a lot to me.
Speaker 11 (46:42):
I think I just really try to like be in
touch with like the purest form of who I am
every day of my life, you know, and it's like
be like really like I don't know, I just feel
like I'm being kind and like giving and love loving.
Choosing love over fear is like you can't go wrong
(47:04):
doing that, you know, And I just try to do
that like every single day of my life. And I
feel like that's why it like shows up in my
music and it's like I want that's like really important
for me to like really take care of myself as
a human and like protect my heart and like my
kindness and purity because I think that like it allows.
Speaker 12 (47:27):
Me to like put that into my art, you know,
like not put any of the bs into my art,
if that makes sense.
Speaker 4 (47:37):
You know who?
Speaker 1 (47:37):
She reminded me off.
Speaker 3 (47:38):
Can I interapt for a second when she said be
kind in that voice of hers? You know what it
took me to believe it or not? Go okay, the
newer Cinderella movie with that blonde the way of the actress,
I don't know her name, but in the movie that
was her slow canna be kind and the way she
(48:03):
said it, I kid you not, is the exact way
Cinderella said. She's a Cinderella story.
Speaker 1 (48:08):
That's it. We're done. We're done.
Speaker 2 (48:11):
Yeah, no, she's gonna come back ten times harder, and
she's gonna see.
Speaker 1 (48:14):
I guarantee you if we go in her closet, she's
got glass slippers. I guarantee you.
Speaker 12 (48:19):
I wish.
Speaker 2 (48:23):
What I'm gonna say with you though, and this is
how I'm gonna leave it, Like with everything I'm saying
is basically, you're gonna see more success this year than
you've ever seen, even on the majors, because you know
you're ready to really get to that late that you
were shining for forever. So it's not gonna I I
(48:44):
truly believe. Listening to those records and listening to everything
he's coming out with you coming out with the EP,
I feel like, honestly, I feel like you're gonna see
way more success than you have ever.
Speaker 1 (48:59):
I think.
Speaker 3 (49:01):
And it's not about like, you know, we're not talking about, oh,
you're gonna be a movie star, right, I'm talking about
she's gonna be like an icon. She's gonna be like
like like a Michael Jackson, like a.
Speaker 1 (49:16):
Like a prince. That's a good one. She's gonna be
that that.
Speaker 2 (49:20):
You're gonna control your only right, She's gonna control You're
gonna control your on lane. You're gonna you're gonna see
it's gonna be weird. It's gonna be everyone's gonna.
Speaker 5 (49:29):
Be like, yo, what happened?
Speaker 2 (49:30):
And then all those people that doubted that left you,
they're gonna be running back like crazy because you developed
yourself stronger as an artist than you even know.
Speaker 1 (49:45):
I could see it in her too, give you that.
You know, she's you know, she's just so humble and
and that's the perfect thing about you.
Speaker 4 (49:55):
You.
Speaker 3 (49:56):
I tell you, she's like a see I keep saying princess.
She's like Princess Diana, a person who was selfless, right,
and she had all the notoriety in the world right
as a Princess of Wales. That title meant nothing to her.
Speaker 4 (50:12):
You know.
Speaker 3 (50:13):

ChEls no big welcome to DNA, Thank you for having me.
Speaker 3 (10:03):
She's so soft spoken, you know we got it. Okay,
this is Jesus just making me look bad. My voice
is like so harsh and she's like yeah, hello. So anyway, okay,
now I want to start with her because I med
your bio. So at this girl at fourteen in the
(10:24):
basement of her home with her father, recorded an album
at fourteen years old.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
Go ahead, tell us about that.
Speaker 12 (10:32):
Yeah, it was all.
Speaker 11 (10:33):
It all happened very naturally, Like I have been begging
my dad to record with me for a long time,
but he worked like an office job, so he'd get
home like really late at night, and then he'd be
too tired. Yeah, and then one day, like my one
of my cousins who was my age came to visit
us and like she recorded a song with him. So
I was like, wait, this isn't making any sense, like
(10:54):
you can't say no to me anymore. And I was
like eventually he's like okay, like let's do it, you know.
And then after we did like our first song, he
was like, oh wait, you're actually.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
Good, so good. Oh my god.
Speaker 12 (11:08):
He wasn't one of.
Speaker 13 (11:08):
Those parents who like thought everything I did was amazing,
you know, like he was like wait oh. And so
then after that it was just like kind of just
every week it was just like a new song, and
I just loved it so much because I would just
like write and then we could go straight to the studio.
My dad would work on the songs like in the
middle of the night and then like show me them
(11:30):
in the morning, like I got. He got really excited
about it eventually, and then before we knew it, we
just had like song after song and we put on SoundCloud.
Speaker 11 (11:42):
It was under a different name. It was under the
name Bitter's Kiss. That was like what we used for
that project. And my uncle knew like one person in
the music industry and sent him my music and then
it was kind of like history after that, like like.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
He's a chain reaction, right, The way that it would
go would just be like a chain reaction.
Speaker 11 (12:04):
Correct, Yeah, because I think I was writing about these
like topics and just like these things that were people
were like, how was she writing about this at such
a young age, you know, And I think that really
like stood out to people and just yeah, like made
an impact for me in the music industry.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
What if you mind me action?
Speaker 4 (12:27):
Right?
Speaker 2 (12:28):
What like they gave it to somebody like what in
like up top like a record exec or was it
just somebody that basically was somebody just to listen to
your music and like a talent person or I mean
like an A and R.
Speaker 12 (12:43):
So he his name sat Bizla.
Speaker 11 (12:45):
He like he had radio stations when he was like
he's just been involved for a long time. He's done
a lot of different things and now he just like
does a lot of networking and music conventions. I just
knew a lot of people in the industry and just
like sent it around and people were just like interested
in meeting me, like managers and labels and stuff. It
(13:09):
was like a different time in the music industry where
people didn't care as much about like numbers.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
Or you know, No, it was all about it was
all about talent. When we got our first look when
we were younger, it was all about talent, and they
they would love to see a young artist come up more.
And now it's more of how many Spotify plays you've got.
But it's changing because all of those people that are
looking only at the numbers now they're getting, they're getting
(13:37):
taking off the offices now and they're rebuilding it. Like
twenty five is going to be the industry that we remember.
That's what a lot of them are actually telling me, actually,
the indoors.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
Yeah, but let me ask her a question too, because
you know, I know your story. When you started, you
were like what thirteen, twelve, twelve? Okay, sorry? So what
she started all studying such a young age, So like you,
you're fourteen years old, you're in school, right, and you
have this passion for singing and writing and stuff like that.
(14:10):
So do you think it changes a person at that age?
You know, I'm trying to say, like, she's not. You
were still doing the normal things that a fourteen year
old will do, you know, I'm trying to say, it's like, yeah, I.
Speaker 12 (14:26):
Don't think I ever really felt normal right.
Speaker 11 (14:31):
That man, Like I wasn't a normal kid, Like I
didn't care about going to parties, like I didn't care
about who was cool in my class, Like I was very, always,
very concerned about like broader issues, and I think like
just issues in the world, issues my family, issues, like
it always just hit me on like a very deep level,
(14:53):
and music just became my way to like express that.
Speaker 12 (14:57):
And I felt like really like myself in my music.
Speaker 11 (15:00):
So I think once I got signed to a record label,
that's when it was like I wasn't a normal I
didn't feel like I.
Speaker 12 (15:09):
Had to grow up quick.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
Yeah, no, definitely.
Speaker 3 (15:12):
Is that something that people like you or her would
regret though as you get older, Like.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
No, not even because when you really take a look
at it, you realize that, you know what I'm saying,
like you were born with a gift different. I don't
know if you feel this way, but I always felt
this way. I was born with a gift, I feel,
and it was something to transpire and I wish it
would it came to fruition my vision with the whole thing.
(15:38):
I don't know how, like you know what I mean,
I really want to know, like how you felt, but
my thing was kind of like it is what it
is now. You're playing with the big boys now, so
you got to grow up quick.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
But she's all grown up now. She looks grown up.
Speaker 11 (15:51):
Now, go ahead, Yeah, I think I think I like
my goal wasn't ever have a goal.
Speaker 12 (15:59):
I honestly really wanted to be like an.
Speaker 11 (16:01):
Actress when I was younger, Like I loved I did
musical theater, so I was wanting to be an actress.
Speaker 12 (16:06):
I didn't know it was going to be a singer.
Speaker 11 (16:07):
And then I started like writing songs. And I think
for me, it's like I've always just wanted to like
leave the world a better place than it was when
I got in it, and like I think helping people
and like is my biggest passion. And I've struggled with
like mental health, so I just like really like to
help people with that through my music.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
And so I love you go ahead.
Speaker 12 (16:36):
I just noticed like.
Speaker 11 (16:37):
That when I started singing and writing music, people were
like paying attention. So I was like, oh, like, you know,
I can maybe impact people or make a positive you
know impact this way, and.
Speaker 12 (16:49):
I think I have so far.
Speaker 11 (16:50):
But I think for me, it's like that's really like
I would just love to get to a place where
like I can really make a difference, not just with
my music, but like actually like team up with organizations
and like actually like do good for the world.
Speaker 12 (17:08):
So that's like my ultimate goal.
Speaker 3 (17:10):
I guess you know what she reminds me of. She's
a type of person who I feel like is if
she didn't have the singing, she would be like uh activists,
an activist or like a Diana, Princess of Wales, you
know that kind of person that goes around the country. Yeah,
you know, doing whatever she can to help her fellow man.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
Well, she felt like you can hear it though, Like
I was listening to some of the music too, man,
and when you hear it, your music has a message.
Like a lot of people don't have a message anymore.
You have a message everything that you have left, you
have left a legacy in there, like somebody from twenty
years later. And this is what I was trying to
accomplish too. Can listen to that song and you don't
(17:51):
even know the person, and you touch them because you
went through that, you know, years and years down the road,
and now they're finally seeing it and it's changing their
perspective to two different you know what I'm saying, into
a different mindset.
Speaker 3 (18:05):
Yeah, she's you know what I'm reading from her bier
and everything she's she's moving on up, but it's not
a progression for her that she really cares about. What
she's more worried about is the output, you know what
I'm trying. What do you mean, Well, she's not worry
how big the big the song gets or whatever, as
(18:26):
long as her song is putting out that message.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
Yeah, everything right. Honestly, I love the activism stuff because
I love activism. And I want to know another quick
question to ask you what label picked you up? Like
what labels were looking at you when you were younger.
Speaker 11 (18:45):
Oh, at one point I was like taking meetings with
all of them.
Speaker 12 (18:51):
What is so crazy?
Speaker 1 (18:52):
Like think like let.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
Him know, let about let's go.
Speaker 11 (18:58):
It was crazy like I was in high school, you know,
and I didn't like, did not expect this to happen
at all, you know. And I think I was choosing
in the end between like Island and Republic both are
on Universal, and I think, yeah, I ended up choosing
(19:20):
Republic and I was on there for two or three years.
Speaker 12 (19:27):
And it was just it was a lot.
Speaker 11 (19:28):
I mean, back then you got big budgets for everything
you'd be going to, like writing campus.
Speaker 4 (19:35):
What year was.
Speaker 12 (19:39):
Twenty seventeen.
Speaker 11 (19:41):
I think I officially like signed my deal in twenty seventeen,
so you will.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
Label me for what's the name? Definitely label meets with Hamilton.
Speaker 5 (19:50):
That's crazy.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
Yeah, But did you know she released an EP by
herself independently girl, I know, right in twenty nineteen when
she became independent, it amassed over twenty five million plays
on spotby.
Speaker 3 (20:06):
You say no more, go ahead? The silence is killing
me between you two right now.
Speaker 12 (20:14):
To say, yeah, it was.
Speaker 11 (20:16):
It was really cool, like because there was specifically like
the one song wrong kind of people that did really well.
But to be honest, it sucks because I it was
like right after I got like like I had to
get dropped from my label that this EP got released,
And I feel like like the getting like having to
(20:40):
leave my label really like was crushing for.
Speaker 12 (20:44):
Me at that age, you know, And I feel like
I didn't.
Speaker 11 (20:47):
Get to appreciate the success of my first EP because
I was just so kind of like crushed by the
whole thing. Like looking back, it kind of makes me
sad because I'm like, if that happened now, I would
be like, so, you know, but I was just not
mentally well as back then and I don't know, but
(21:10):
it did really show me that like happiness and like
mental health is like not always about like what is going.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
On in your life.
Speaker 2 (21:20):
You know, never blame yourself for what happened because you
got into the industry young. Okay. And this is somebody
who was in the industry young, who's seen his family
member who was one of the top artists because of
mental health. He didn't get to the point like he
always felt where he should have got. But he's happy
where he's at and he's an independent artist right now too.
(21:43):
So that's one thing I want to tell you. Never
feel like you left something behind, because that twenty five
streams by your million streams by yourself show that you
don't need a label behind you. You have a stronger message.
So just remember that, yeah, okay.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
And not only that, because it's it's the fact that.
Speaker 3 (22:03):
You don't need whatever you gained from all the steps
that you've taken from that first time in your basement
recording up until the record label and where you are now.
I think everything that's happened, all the steps along the way,
is your path.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
Yep. It's your ups and downs, and I feel like
you got honestly I feel like you got more in
the tank.
Speaker 3 (22:25):
Oh, she's got more in the tank. I could tell
by her songs. She's got a lot more in the tank.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
Now, my question to you is do you miss a label? Like,
did you miss a label for a look? Like I
remember if it's cool, I'm just talking to my mind
experience real quid. I remember when we found that homeboy
in the schoope let Homeboy go, And I remember everybody
was like, whoa is not? Everybody scrambling to go in
and try to do different things and stuff like that.
(22:51):
Like even when I lost my first one when Universal dudes,
you know what I'm saying, kept running.
Speaker 1 (22:56):
Around like a pattern with record labels or something.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
It's not that, man, It's said at the same time. Man,
you know it's it's it's it's a weird I'm not
gonna lie to you. It's a weird. It's a weird
mixture of things. And she knows what I'm talking about.
But you feel like you came out stronger right.
Speaker 4 (23:14):
Now.
Speaker 11 (23:15):
I feel like I'm just such a much healthier person
in general, and like I feel like I just really
am excited because I feel like the music I'm making
now is the music that I've always wanted to make,
and I'm doing it with my friends and that's like
really cool part about being independent is like you can
work with whoever you want to work with, Like I
(23:36):
love that. I think the thing is like as an artist,
like you have like you need time and space because
you have a lot of feelings and like you need
to create, you know, you need to constantly be creating
or else like you know, And I think the hardest
part about being an artist now it's just there's so
much to do that has.
Speaker 12 (23:56):
Nothing to do with the art.
Speaker 11 (23:58):
I think when I miss it, what I miss is
like just being able to focus on the music and
having the other stuff taken care of.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
But to be.
Speaker 11 (24:07):
Honest, I don't even think that's a label thing anymore.
I think that's like a twenty twenty five, twenty twenty
four versus twenty nineteen thing, because like I have friends
signed to major labels now, and like they still have
to do all the tic.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
Like all the kicktocks around. They have to do all
the what do you call theirselves for the same as
they got to do all the content, oh, you know,
the content. And I feel like you're right, you know,
what I mean, and label constants get you get mad
times too of the labels and stuff like that when
you look at them, because it's like, bro, this has
nothing to do with it, and they need artists development bad.
(24:43):
Yeah you know what I mean, because like you said,
years ago, you were in the camp writing camps and
all of that. Now they just go, Okay, he's famous
on tik Socke, he's famous here, put the money on
that project. But I'm glad now they're gone. All those
type of people that try to do everything half cut
and all that are finally gone.
Speaker 3 (25:01):
Yeah, thank god, because like what I what I see
is that she, like other artists that we have right
are ones. It's not even just about working hard. It's
about being themselves, being true to their craft, being true
to themselves, and being true just to the performance and
to the artistry of what they do. And you don't
(25:23):
get that a lot in one out of a million people.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
Well you can see she's a real artist. That's insane
that I want to get to some of her music
though right now, because I'm like excited, man, I'm like, whoa,
let's go.
Speaker 3 (25:37):
He's been playing that song all day, so anyway we
get love song in here have the video, but we
do have the music.
Speaker 11 (25:44):
So.
Speaker 14 (25:49):
Jackets and it doesn't as change something, magister, as you
told me how to be strong, that you how to
be kind and always get along, but tell me how
(26:12):
to go to talk.
Speaker 6 (26:13):
To you in my review.
Speaker 15 (26:15):
But you're waiting to.
Speaker 6 (26:22):
Have some baby, let you go.
Speaker 16 (26:29):
And if there's no farthings, maybe consent.
Speaker 15 (26:33):
So now that smy in the view general and she
loved some baby that you're God.
Speaker 14 (26:52):
We would tell you to know what it was worth
to have someone who still loves.
Speaker 6 (26:58):
You and you are your work.
Speaker 14 (27:00):
You pave with my heart, jumping myself first two halves
over how we couldn't make it work.
Speaker 6 (27:09):
You told me how to be shown, that taught you
how to be kind and always get along. To tell
me how to go to talk to you in my
review that you to bby, let you go and if
(27:33):
there's no fusing as maybe concern, let single thank you
old love some baby, let you go on?
Speaker 3 (28:12):
You know Okay, So anyway I had said this before.
I'm sorry I said this before.
Speaker 5 (28:18):
Let's go.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
She you know how many I'm not comparing you to
another artist, but it's what brings me back because a
lot of people that we have on the show. They
have you have such talent. I'll just tell you that
you have talent. And when it brought me back.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
Ahead to the days of Jewel, I could definitely see that.
I just that, I'm just I can't compare her because
she got such a different type.
Speaker 3 (28:46):
Of Again we're gonna argue again, No, we're gonna argue.
I'm not saying she's Jewel. I'm saying she reminds me.
Speaker 1 (28:55):
Of that Aura. That's soft spoken.
Speaker 3 (28:59):
You know, she's not like ah, you know, she's not
like thrashing anybody with her words. She's like very so spoken.
But the voice and the and the words are penetrating.
There's my word for the day.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
Penetrating. Go ahead, you can go.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
Said you sound different, you sound different.
Speaker 5 (29:19):
That's it.
Speaker 1 (29:19):
I can't.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
I can't put in you know, listen, man, I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
No, that's not her. I'm not saying it's it's different.
Speaker 2 (29:33):
I understand. Yeah, man, I understand why labels ran to
go and grab her. You hear her, and it's more soothing.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
You hear the music penetrating and soothing. You hear let
me write that down.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
Treating okay anyway, that's like to me, that's like all
right anyway, so we're not gonna get it, but anyway,
it just sounds something that it makes you feel good.
It brings a positive more vibe into the music, and
it's just something when you hear it, you want to
keep listening to it because you want it to feel good.
(30:06):
I can have a depressing day and then listen to
that record and wake me up, just like for real
with smile No no, no, yeah no really I like
that song more.
Speaker 12 (30:17):
And I like how you always say that because I
think that is like what music is for me.
Speaker 11 (30:21):
You know, Like I have a very turbulent mind and
I think way too much and music is like it's
my comment. It calms me down, Like it makes me
in that moment that I'm making the song or I'm
singing the song or whatever, like everything's okay, you know,
and like everything's gonna be okay. And I just like
(30:43):
that's how I want people to feel when they listen
to my music, like you're okay.
Speaker 12 (30:47):
And everything's going to be okay because it is, you know.
Speaker 11 (30:50):
And I think there's a lot of music out there,
especially to do with like guys, girls and whatever that's
just like very bitter, yeah, and negative, and it's just
not useful to be bitter, Like there's nothing good that
comes out of that, right, Like that's why it's like
it's such a simple line, like can I write you
a love song baby now that you're gone? But then
(31:11):
at the same time, it's like to be able to
still say like and remember the good parts and say
I love you to someone who maybe like hurt you
or you know, broke your heart is like so powerful,
and I think that's like the other thing I was
like I want to get across is like strength and power.
It is soft and like it is it's confident, and
(31:34):
it's like well spoken.
Speaker 12 (31:36):
It's not angry, you know.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
So she should write a book. I could listen to
her on an audiobook. Oh, absolutely, you should do an
audio book.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
Absolutely. That's another thing.
Speaker 1 (31:47):
I'm telling you. She has that voice that she even
just talking to her.
Speaker 2 (31:51):
I love when I hear that record, right, I love
that record because you can see a gloomy day. It
could be like the worst day, Like it could be
like straight up thunderwrit it could be a good Trina
and that song will come up and just bring the
sky back, you know what I'm.
Speaker 1 (32:04):
Saying, so I don't say sweet. Nothing's like that to me.
Speaker 2 (32:07):
It's a real record, Like that record. I feel like
I can have the worst day in the world and
listen to that record and then I go back to
just well, I could recharging myself. I could sing for
you my grief anyway.
Speaker 3 (32:19):
But you know what, you know what I love the
most is in this song when like certain notes or whatever,
when she does that, I love that. I just love
that that alone, that note alone.
Speaker 1 (32:31):
Gives me chills. It gives me chills. Just letting you
know you give me chills.
Speaker 2 (32:37):
I could definitely see the Jewel comparison.
Speaker 1 (32:40):
Yeah, I'm not talking the same voice or anything.
Speaker 2 (32:43):
No, no, no, no, that that kind of sound, that
kind of that kind of calmness, and then when it
comes out, it just strikes you, like you said, penetrating you.
But you never know where it comes from me, but
it makes you feel good.
Speaker 1 (32:53):
No, she always makes are you? Anyway? So I want
to get to one more more? If we can't, can
we do one more?
Speaker 2 (33:01):

(38:51):
just a mix of words when it comes to this girl,
because when we.
Speaker 2 (38:54):
We gotta have courage.
Speaker 1 (38:55):
Courage. What did you gotta, Lion King?
Speaker 2 (38:58):
No, man, you know what, at the end of the day, man,
you're fighting so many people that you won't even see

get your voice, even listen to you as an artist.
Speaker 1 (39:07):
Hold up, okay, I'm holding go ahead.
Speaker 2 (39:09):
Charisma, charisma, courage, and I always say brains.
Speaker 1 (39:15):
She's got brains, you know.
Speaker 2 (39:16):
What I'm saying.
Speaker 11 (39:19):
Be able to like face rejection over it and over
and over again, and like not like and I think,
like it's not an ego thing. Like if you're like
just like building up your ego so high that you're
like no one can get me, like I'm the best
thing in the world.
Speaker 12 (39:38):
Like that's so gonna fade.
Speaker 11 (39:41):
Like you need to have this like really deep feeling
in your gut that like this is like the world
needs to hear you, like you have something to say,
and like it needs to be heard because like that's
the only thing that's gonna like nobody and nothing else
is going to sustain you for like as long as
(40:01):
it takes in this industry, and like how hard it
actually is to make it.
Speaker 1 (40:07):
It's like, no, I understand now, keep going. I'm sorry
I keep interrupting you.
Speaker 12 (40:13):
No, I was kind of done, but I was just
gonna say.

I was just gonna say, like it's it really is,
like you know, there's been so many but I can
also say, like I'm very grateful for like the team.
It does also take, like a strong team around you
being like don't give up, don't give up. There's been
many times where I've been like I don't know I
should I go to college, like should I just become
(40:38):
a therapist or something that make me happy? Like, but
it's like over and over again, Like right as I'm
about to give up, something happens that's like, don't give up.
Speaker 12 (40:50):
Like the universe is like, don't give up, and I'm like.
Speaker 1 (40:53):
Don't give up.
Speaker 4 (40:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (40:54):
My decision is usually on a Sunday night, or should
I do the laundry tonight? Or should I do should
I wait for it Wednesday? That's like the hardest decisions
I have to do. That's about it. I don't really
have anything going on, but with him, I think, you know.

And hour was made for you, I just can't.
Speaker 1 (43:43):
I just can't.
Speaker 11 (43:45):
I just that's kind of like about what we were
just talking about, Like just like that that song and
that that video. Like the whole point was actually I
wrote it out of time when I was like really
questioning whether I should keep doing music, and that song
really resonated with me because it was just like like
when it says like I was made for you, I'm
kind of like talking about my art, I think in
(44:07):
that video. So yeah, yeah, I just shot that with
my friend, like no budget. We just like went and
had fun.
Speaker 1 (44:16):
So it was odd.
Speaker 3 (44:17):
Those are some that's sometimes the best moments is when
you're not really planning everything and you just kind of like,
you know, take it as it goes, and it's I
can't say enough about this girl too. I mean, thank you, Howard,
thank you Hollie. I love you, Hollie.
Speaker 1 (44:35):
You know I'm thank you.
Speaker 3 (44:37):
I am just so grateful for the people that we
have recently came across and are working with, and they
have brought us such inspiring artists.
Speaker 1 (44:50):
And I don't even want to say artists. I want
to say I don't know.
Speaker 3 (44:55):
I'm thinking of a word. Okay, I can't think of
a word. But they're just not artists. They're music makers.
Speaker 2 (45:03):
I don't I just creators.
Speaker 1 (45:05):
Creators, that's a good word. I like creators. They create.
They don't just sing, they create. That's a good one.
I like that.
Speaker 3 (45:13):
And I really thank you for that, I really do.
I mean, I can't say which song is my favorite
because I love them all. You know, every every song
that you've had that I've been sent and everything to
play has each one has a different meaning for me,
each one has a different story.
Speaker 2 (45:33):
I feel like you could feel your heart in those records. Yeah,
like you as an artist, right understand what I'm saying,
because I feel like you can feel your soul in
that record, like we see. You make it so easy
for the listener to see what you're seeing, your vision
in those songs. A lot of artists can't do that.
(45:54):
That's why they need certain videos, certain pushes, certain way
when you sing, you can actually close your eyes and
see your vision. That's very difficult to do as an artist.
Speaker 3 (46:07):
Yeah, we don't need that video because I can close
my eyes and you're already taking me there, you.
Speaker 2 (46:11):
Know what I mean, Like anybody can have that. You
make your record so easy for somebody to have the
same exact feeling that you have, basically the same experiences
and the same push, like you could just like I'm
hearing this, I'm like, wow, man, I'm thinking about this one.
I know this one's thinking about me, Isaiah. I'm saying. So,
(46:32):
it's crazy.
Speaker 1 (46:33):
You touch people's hearts more, do Yeah?
Speaker 2 (46:36):
You really do.
Speaker 1 (46:37):
Well you got us too, I'll tell you that right now.
Speaker 4 (46:39):
Thank you.
Speaker 12 (46:40):
That means a lot to me.
Speaker 11 (46:42):
I think I just really try to like be in
touch with like the purest form of who I am
every day of my life, you know, and it's like
be like really like I don't know, I just feel
like I'm being kind and like giving and love loving.

see her. You know, she's not worried about the title
and all these awards and all this other stuff and
everything accolades. She just wants to do good. She wants
to bring her message across to other people around the world,

you can think of. I told her today when I
