Welcome, Welcome, welcome, Thank you for having me.
Speaker 2 (07:25):

I did my research with her. Okay, So Copy obviously comes.
When you were like a young girl, they called you
were nicknamed Copy because of the color of your hair.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
Yes, that is so.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
Now I know when my father called me Frizzy, that
was a good.
Speaker 4 (07:56):
Before all nicknames was was a popul thing.
Speaker 7 (08:00):
You know old.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
So yeah, So I want to start off because I
know you are actually the sixth of eleven siblings. How
is that growing up?
Speaker 4 (08:12):
Oh, that was a lot of sharing clothes.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
How many boys and how many girls?
Speaker 4 (08:19):
It is six girls of four boys?
Speaker 1 (08:23):
Oh wow?
Speaker 4 (08:24):
Yeah a six sisters four you know?
Speaker 7 (08:27):
Right?
Speaker 1 (08:27):
Yeah? No, I got it, like a wow, just wow.
So you're obviously in the middle. So are any of
them into the music entertainment field like you or is
it just you alone?
Speaker 4 (08:41):
My brothers and sisters. I have a sister that is
in the entertainment field. Her name is Charles.
Speaker 2 (08:47):
Oh, yes, like.
Speaker 4 (08:50):
That's where my mom got the name from. Yes, she's
a produced Remember Charro.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Wasn't she Colombian or something?
Speaker 4 (08:58):
Right? I think I always s Yes, that's where my
mom got her name from.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Okay, so you started off obviously because now I did again,
like I say, I always do my research. Okay, So
she you were with Johnny j and you were married,
and then you both also developed a clockwork. I did
not know you produced artists such as Tupac. Yes, right, yes,
(09:31):
I mean.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
Produced one hundred songs, over a hundred songs for Tupac.
Speaker 6 (09:35):
Wow, what is that?
Speaker 1 (09:37):
That is crazy.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
What wait, Johnny, you're talking about the legendary money. Yes, yes,
that was your husband.
Speaker 4 (09:48):
I was like, what.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
Old time ago man seen Johnny. Let me just explain
to you.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
When we do this show. Okay, I'm the talker. I
do all the research and everything, and the hell out of.
Speaker 8 (10:03):
Him he's look shocked, like Okay, now I'm looking at
you guys, like, why is he so shocked?
Speaker 1 (10:11):
You do all the research? Okay, hold on a second.
You know, I'm saying to myself as sometimes when I
when I look at people and I see what's going
on in their history and stuff like that, and I'm like, yeah,
Danny's gonna like this. Oh he's gonna I'm not gonna.
Speaker 4 (10:29):
Tell him you surprised him.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
Look at me.
Speaker 8 (10:34):
He's like stump shock, look at him. It makes me
feel good that it's off my merit. I haven't used
that his name, I haven't swung it around. And so
it's good that I'm getting recognized for the work I'm
doing for Christ and not just because of Johnny, who
was who was a legendary producer solo a million records.
(10:57):
So and it's important that that I put everything right
with the Holy Spirit give me the lyrics to the tracks.
These tracks are Johnny J tracks. Yeah, so, and it's
off my merit and not just his.
Speaker 4 (11:12):
So that makes me feel good that you guys are
recognizing my music.
Speaker 3 (11:16):
You got to realize something too. Yeah, an artist to
come in, he probably was inspired by stuff that you
were doing too. So it's like you always got to
look at that too, because me and her as a team.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
Right, yes, exactly, yes, yes, the mirror and the music
in itself.
Speaker 8 (11:33):
I mean, I don't know without me telling you everything
before you ask me, is all inspired.
Speaker 4 (11:40):
You know.
Speaker 8 (11:40):
I wrote all these songs to his tracks, Johnny J.
Tracks that you're hearing, the whole albums, all the last
three albums that I've done, and the next ones and
the next one.
Speaker 4 (11:50):
He left a lot of music behind that.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
A lot of people don't give this woman an.
Speaker 4 (11:57):
Yeah, it's been a long road. I'll just tell you that.
A lot of you know what I'm persevering on and.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
Next to success, so you understand how to get to success.
And the cool thing about her. What I like about
her though, is you know when somebody is very successful, right,
they don't need to talk about the accolades, and they
don't need to be sitting there and pushing the accolades
on people, you know what I mean. That's how you
know when somebody really made it. But somebody really made it.
It's so comfortable with knowing their achievements that they really
(12:31):
don't even talk about their achievements. They want to get
more achievements and push themselves out in a different roup.
Now my question to you is this you ready yes,
just being just having your husband with you, right, did
he teach you a lot of like the ropes of
the game, Like when you were like next to him,
like who was like a lot of the artists that
(12:52):
basically you were around that kind of like inspired you.
Was like, Wow, we're actually making history right here.
Speaker 4 (12:57):
I was around everybody.
Speaker 8 (12:58):
I was in the studio with Twopa, like Snoop Dogg,
in the studio with everybody every session, Tupac and Johnny
j had I was there. I was the person behind
the scenes doing all the business aspects for Johnny. So
that's why I already knew the business. I just didn't
know the Christian market, you know, I didn't know that game.
That was a whole that's a whole different game, you know.
Speaker 4 (13:20):
So and that.
Speaker 8 (13:21):
You know, that's something that came along after God gave
me the gift to sing out of a sound. But
every artist that you can think of, I mean, I
was around him with all the studio sessions. I was
in there in the studio with him on the couch
making sure that those the business aspect of it was right,
the songs that he did writing down.
Speaker 4 (13:40):
Sitting in the studio, I was archiving.
Speaker 8 (13:42):
The information as there's all everyone's coming in there, writing
the song information down and making sure that he got
his credits and his credits are going to mount into
dollar signs, you know, making sure that aspect is right.
Because along the way he had the soup for the
music and the money. He had the sue. You know,
not long after before Tupac died, he.
Speaker 4 (14:03):
Had the soup.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
I got another little tidbit hair for you.
Speaker 4 (14:12):
This is so much fun.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
You have no idea. She also had parts on the
record for Coolio in Gangs. Look at.
Speaker 4 (14:23):
It was a skit. It was a skit recoup this
that's me on the skit. He's clipping off of that.
It's gonna not that song, the skit, the skip.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
I know, I know, there's hey, I screaming and everything said,
how did I get you to get in the.
Speaker 8 (14:52):
Studio Echo Sound with Johnny and Tupac and Coolio comes
over there and says, hey, can I use your wife?
Speaker 4 (15:00):
I have to come the song?
Speaker 8 (15:02):
And I'm like, he's like, yeah, go ahead, And I
went over there and he's he already had the line
written out for me to say, and then I just
did the part and I was like, he was like,
you want somebody? I said, no, I'm good. Me came
back over there and he's like, what's your name? And
give me what's your credit? You give me some credit?
Speaker 4 (15:20):
And you know, and that was it.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Did you get it? Did you get a plaque for
that too? No?
Speaker 8 (15:26):
I never asked for anything. And it's so funny because
years down, I literally only a couple of years ago,
looked up the credits. I never even looked up the
album or anything to see if I was on it.
I just googled it a couple of years ago, and
I was like, wait a minute, I heard it because
people were You're on that record, you know they're on
the record, and I was like, am I did I
really make the record?
Speaker 2 (15:46):
I was like, record, I was on the album.
Speaker 4 (15:51):
Gangs to paradise.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
This album.
Speaker 4 (15:53):
Back in the day they had skits. I was the
girl and the skit recoup. This is called the title
is called reco this.
Speaker 2 (16:02):
Oh my god, I know the song too. That is hilarious.
Speaker 8 (16:07):
Yeah, there's more than that. I was on so but
I never asked for credit. I never wanted credit. I
never was like, give me credit. So if he's tripping
off of this one, he's gonna trip off.
Speaker 4 (16:16):
The other one that hit him up.
Speaker 6 (16:21):
Take money.
Speaker 9 (16:26):
Yo.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
They always thought, can you please explain to me? Can
you explain to me how that happened? And I promise
you I'm gonna get to that Christian music because I
want to get that. I need to repent.
Speaker 4 (16:44):
Myself has forgiven me for that. Okay, the Lord.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
At the end of the day. Look at the end
of the day, never be sha accomplishment.
Speaker 4 (16:57):
I'm not. But you know, Hi, everything went down. You
know what I'm saying. You've become a part of something that.
You know, everything happened and people lost their lives. So
you know I was a part of you know, people
lost their lives over that. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
You gotta understand that it wasn't anybody's fault.
Speaker 4 (17:15):
No, it wasn't it.
Speaker 8 (17:16):
Actually, when I ashamed of it and I've been promoting,
yeah that's me, you know, people like, yeah, right, it's Faith.
So why would Faith Evans be on her own disc record.
I mean, that just doesn't even make any sense. The
only female in the studio. Most times it would be
me and nine guys with my husband, Johnny was there,
you know, but be me, Tupac, Johnny, the Outlaws and
(17:39):
whoever else would come and be on the features for
the for the day, you know, sometimes female singers and
stuff like that.
Speaker 4 (17:47):
A song, but I was told.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
Death at the time, I was going to be I
want to say something. You are you are technique. My
question goes like this, is you ready? My cousin goes you,
I know it wasn't faked on that record. Okay, you
can hear that it's not Faith because of a certain tone.
My is Can you just give me a quick story
(18:10):
how they got you on that record? Oh?
Speaker 8 (18:13):
My husband Tupac said before he left, he said, hey,
I need somebody on there to do that. I'm the
only female that I need a girl in there doing
the take money because they had to get money.
Speaker 4 (18:22):
Part I went in there. He said, just do this part.
Speaker 8 (18:25):
I'm gonna sample you in and I'm gonna take money,
take money, about three times and he sampled me in.
Speaker 6 (18:34):
And how was that?
Speaker 4 (18:35):
You know?
Speaker 1 (18:35):
It just reminds me of I think her name is
Lauren Aldred. She was the voice beyond behind the Greatest
Showman on Earth the song never Enough, and everybody thought
the actress in the movie actually sang the song when
it really wasn't her.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
Well they thought it wasn't so they thought that.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
And then she was on AG America has Got Talent
and she performed that song for the first time and said, everybody,
you know that was me, that was you.
Speaker 4 (19:08):
You know, that was me, that was me.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
That is money And.
Speaker 4 (19:12):
That's not the only one. Death around the corner. I
know what's wrong with that crazy mother? That's me too.
You not trying to curse, but you know that's me
too on that one. How do you want it doing
(19:32):
the little ooze.
Speaker 8 (19:33):
And ahs and how do you want to Yeah, that's
me too, my record, man, you want the radio version,
the oohs and the os on there, you know, So
that was me on those and there's some more on there.
There's some more that I've done.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
How was it being around Tupac? I'm working with Tupaca.
Speaker 4 (19:53):
That was my little brother. He was amazing.
Speaker 8 (19:56):
I mean, people don't even know this picture me Roland
Tupac was up in the studio.
Speaker 4 (20:00):
He was sitting there with just me and him.
Speaker 8 (20:02):
Everybody went in the room to go eat in the
hallway or whatever together the kitchen area, and it's me
and him in there. He's at the board, suck. I'm like,
what's going on. I'm at I'm at the couch and
I'm like, what's happening on?
Speaker 4 (20:14):
What's going on?
Speaker 8 (20:14):
Because you're normally flowing. And he's like, I'm just just
stuck right now. I'm like, you stuck ki your stuff.
But he had already written about twenty songs already, right so,
and I'm like, he's like, I'm trying to figure out
what I said. He had pictured me for rolling in
my five hundred bands or something. He had like three lines,
and I'm like, I'm like, your title is right there,
(20:35):
picture me rolling.
Speaker 4 (20:36):
That's your title.
Speaker 6 (20:37):
And he's like, oh my god, oh my god.
Speaker 4 (20:40):
He ran out of the studio. He ran in the kitchen.
He said, your wife just gave me a dope title.
Speaker 8 (20:45):
He was so excited, and you know, I never took credit,
but I just think it's important for people to know
the history behind it.
Speaker 4 (20:51):
He was so excited and just.
Speaker 8 (20:52):
That memory of him running out of the studio of
excitement because he was stuck. And then CPO couldn't get
his stuff together. I took him a long time to
write his verse, and Tupac was like, he was like
irritated because he nobody does that so fast, and he
had to help him write his you know, he was
in between the verse because he couldn't get his verse together.
Speaker 4 (21:13):
That's why you hear Tupac and CPO going back and forth. Yeah,
he couldn't. He had problems writing the song.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
You should really write a book.
Speaker 4 (21:24):
Who was already have a.
Speaker 8 (21:26):
Two hundred and fifty page manuscript already already, I've already written.
I'm just putting everything together for his documentary and.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
The right thing to that. Like, I liked Johnny Jay
did this. This is one thing that I thought he
did that was really dope, and I think it was
with the Outlaws. He attributed Tupac and the video was
just amazing. What he did for Tupac.
Speaker 4 (21:53):
I never forget he did that. We had.
Speaker 8 (21:57):
Napoleon was our artist on our label, Clockwork, and that
was a tribute that that was the first single to
the album that he produced for Napoleon and Napoleon. It
was definitely a dope, you know, tribute. Napoleon had stopped
rapping and gave me Muslim So we shelved the autum
(22:19):
and it was actually a double CD we had did.
Speaker 4 (22:23):
We did a double CD. Johnny was going to get
a distribution deal.
Speaker 7 (22:27):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (22:27):
But then there's some behind the scenes Hayterray going on and.
Speaker 2 (22:33):
Pot died literally.
Speaker 4 (22:35):
Getting a distribution deal.
Speaker 8 (22:37):
You know, it was shut down. So all a lot
of things that happened. It's my It's in my book
is a lot of things, a lot of things that's happened.
And and then I got to see a lot and
all praise be to Almighty God that I'm still here, living,
breathing and able to tell the stories and you know,
and retain my youth at the same time.
Speaker 4 (22:54):

go ahead, okay. So after in college, after the passing
of Johnny, she was reintroduced to the Bible by her professor. Yes,
and that's where she went into that area. Okay, And
her first song was Holy Groove. Now, when she sent
(23:46):

Speaker 8 (27:14):
God's already knowing you gotta Do's time for all of
us to make those choices now.
Speaker 4 (27:19):
And you know, I'm not just talking about one group
of people.
Speaker 8 (27:22):
I'm talking about everybody. Everybody's gotta start doing what they're
supposed to do right.
Speaker 6 (27:27):
Supposed to live their life right, hit the game.
Speaker 8 (27:30):
It don't make it right for a woman to go
to man and man, or a man to go from
woman and a woman every night we often, but it's
time to repent now. I'm not just talking about Steve
and Steve or Eve and Eve. Adam and Eve already
don't mess it up for all of us. So it's
time for us to do what God wants to do.
And she's already and died on the cross, of course,
it's time for us to pick the get y'all. Check
(27:51):
the pictures Compesius into the bowels of marstr Man and a.
Speaker 5 (27:57):
Woman like.
Speaker 2 (28:09):
I record. I'm gonna say that record was dope and.
Speaker 8 (28:13):
It actually went number one on the world Indie charts
and in Europe it went number one, y'all.
Speaker 4 (28:18):
Praise God Jesus.
Speaker 3 (28:21):
So what do you think the difference is right between
the business of the you know, the regular industry that
we know in the Christian music industry.
Speaker 4 (28:32):
I think it has. It's not that different wise as gatekeepers.
Speaker 8 (28:40):
Uh, just like there are gatekeepers in the secular world
and the save world, there are still gatekeepers also, and
I experienced it. I experienced it at a high levels,
just as much as people have in the secular world.
And that is the one thing that actually one of
the gatekeepers, who's supposed to be one of God's children,
fearing the plateaus vessels to help us get on board,
(29:05):
said to me, well, you don't sound like anybody else.
You don't sound like anything that all the ten records
that I have right here, radio doesn't want your music.
And I was like, hmm, I got emotional a little bit.
I said no, I said, Father, you didn't call me
to be like anybody else. I don't have to be
in the box that they want to put me in.
I'm not supposed to sound like anybody else. And I'm
(29:25):
not preaching a non I'm preaching a non compromising word
of God. And I think they were fearing that because
you got to understand a lot of these people who
are are in the safe world are also have people
who are in the second world who they have to
still look up to I've had many people I've paid
to do stuff and they call themselves Christian people and
(29:46):
they've taken my money and didn't do their.
Speaker 4 (29:47):
Job, you know. So I've had to battle.
Speaker 8 (29:50):
And it's so funny that now my music is it's
on the national charts. We're not the Christian charts, just
on the wor World White Charts, on on Media Base,
number thirty seven on the charts as far as the
top forty Praise God, and I'm one number thirty nine.
Speaker 4 (30:08):
Ain't see you, guys. This is all because of God
first and foremost.
Speaker 8 (30:14):
But I said, you know what, when that person said
that to me, I said, no, I went through the
Indie Bible and I got that, and I found contacts
through that, the Indie Bible dot com, and I was like,
and I just persevered.
Speaker 4 (30:25):
It took me a while, you guys, I've been singing.
Speaker 8 (30:28):
I got to get to sing in two thousand and
nine and I'm just now it's been fifteen years, you guys.
It's been a battle. But you know what, with God,
all things are possible. A delay is not Deniah in Jesus.
Speaker 4 (30:39):
Mighty name, it is not.
Speaker 8 (30:40):
And I was not giving up because I'm doing it
to win souls. I didn't do it to be anything
else but to win souls. But anything else that come
up with, I'm gonna embrace every aspect of it.
Speaker 4 (30:50):
You know.
Speaker 2 (30:51):
They said the same thing about a rapper. Let's see
if you know who who look Cray?
Speaker 4 (30:56):
Oh okay, well yeah, I've heard that him down. Yes, yes,
Cray Cray.
Speaker 2 (31:03):
I met him, you know what I'm saying. They did.
Speaker 3 (31:05):
I remember they used to do the same thing to
La Craze when he was trying to do the Christian rap,
and they would always give him me a lugs to
say it. I remember that I actually got to speak
to him. But this is a long time agoing O
six okay, coming, and I remember, and we.
Speaker 2 (31:20):
Just kept writing, you know, please just keep knocking the
door down, Please just keep knocking that door down. And
he knocked the door down. I think it was like
two thousand and fourteen.
Speaker 8 (31:29):
Okay, well, Tim, I met him in ten when he
just got award. Maybe he just got a Grammy in
twenty eleven. Yes, I met him with Vicky Mack and everything.
They were having a little event.
Speaker 4 (31:41):
Yeah. I got to meet a lot of the people.
It's so funny that I went backstage.
Speaker 8 (31:46):
It's so funny because the Lord told me that I
was going to meet a lot of people and I
was going to be there and I was going to
see it all, but I wasn't going to have And
this was Prophecy told me also along with the confirmation
the Lord giving it to me that I wasn't ann
have any breakthroughs until my third album. This is the
third album, you guys. Okay, I would have un til
(32:06):
my third album. I didn't know it was gonna be
stressed out this long fifteen years, you guys. But it's
okay because I'm doing it to win souls for price,
and I've been called for a time such as this,
like Queen Esther, So you know what we got to
say our people, you guys, that's what it's about.
Speaker 4 (32:23):
You know, That's what it's about.
Speaker 8 (32:25):
And right now, as you see what's going on in
the world, what they're trying to do, man's gender and
all these things, I'm gonna spak about it.
Speaker 4 (32:31):
I'm gona talk about it.
Speaker 8 (32:32):
That's my song picked the gag that was from my
first album, you guys, so I had I was fearless
to talk about it then and I'm fearless to talk
about it now, you know. But some of the things
that's going on was way back when I already recorded
the song yeah, oh war cry that I don't know
if you guys listen to it, they've been I've been sanctioned.
Speaker 2 (32:52):
We heard it. She right, you gave me so this
is the thing though, right, because you know I do
a lot of Yeah, I listened to a lot of
the records, so don't get twisted like she won't tell
me a lot of times of information and going with surprise.
Speaker 3 (33:06):
But she showed me all your records and I told her,
you know what I told her and is a funny thing.
And she's gonna even say it. I said, this sounds
like a Tupac sound. She looks at me, and she
just looks at me and she goes like this, No.
Speaker 2 (33:24):
That's why I was shocked when she said, John, because
I was listening to the production and then I was
listening to the way that you were doing it, and
I'm like, babe, this sounds like a nineteen ninety six
kind of do.
Speaker 1 (33:35):
You know how much I had told my tongue okay?
Speaker 4 (33:38):
And she looked was a surprise. You have to whold like,
you can't say anything. You're good friend, You're that friend
that have it.
Speaker 2 (33:46):
She's not gonna say nothing. Listen to me. She looked
at me, she was like this.
Speaker 1 (33:52):
I was like, okay, cool, yeah, and she so well.
Speaker 2 (33:56):
Because the thing is, I always listened to your husband
and production the kid, so thank you when I would
hear music right when I would hear that type of sound,
because Tupac was the only one, because West Coast. That's
why I told him this had to be a West
Coast concept.
Speaker 3 (34:15):
Looking at me, she's just looking like no, no, no,
because I know my production, I know my artist, and
I can hear it. So I look at her and
I know this sounds like a like a kind of
like a Tupac sound. But I was like thinking, I
was thinking his name in there because I remember I
know a lot of records that he made that I
would always tune out, and I was listening.
Speaker 2 (34:36):
Like the All Eye on Me album and stuff like that.
Speaker 4 (34:38):
Songs on there he did eleven songs. I know why.
Speaker 2 (34:42):
When I heard it, I was like this is I
was like, who is? Because tell her production?
Speaker 1 (34:52):
I was like no, no, I kept talking. You know
what it was because I was.
Speaker 2 (34:55):
Playing the Tupac record and I was like, and it
was your record.
Speaker 1 (35:02):
So the thing was is that once we knew that
you were coming on the show, when usually people are
coming on the show, I start doing my research. It's
not the day before, okay, So little by little I
look at the videos on Instagram or I'll look at Wikipedia,
you know, everywhere, just to get those little tidbits. When
I started putting two and two together, I'm like, this
(35:23):
is going to blow his mind.
Speaker 2 (35:24):
And you know what I played? You know what, I
stopped a minute before you left a little record I
played and I looked at you when I said, this sounds.
Speaker 1 (35:33):
Like it I don't remember.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
How do you want it?
Speaker 4 (35:36):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (35:37):
Yeah that one?
Speaker 1 (35:37):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (35:38):
Okay, what do you think because do you want it?
Speaker 4 (35:42):
Oh? That's too funny.
Speaker 1 (35:44):
What do you.
Speaker 4 (35:49):
See? You have your musicology, as it must be, your
is very music. Yes. So for you to know that
and can just say that and compare that, that's amazing.
Speaker 1 (36:03):
This is mister music Pedia. Okay.
Speaker 2 (36:05):
Yeah, but that just blew my mind because it was
just like I played growing Up and and I looked
at her and I'm like this this kind of sounds
like hold up. I said, slow, slow down there, slow down?
That didna she slowed down on what record was it?
Was it Wars or the other one? It was Wars.
(36:26):
I said slow down there for a minute, and I
heard it.
Speaker 10 (36:28):
I kept playing honey on it. That's why it blew
my mind. In my mind when you said that, why
do you think I walked? Do you think I was
about to get up and literally walk away? Because she
is my witness right now for all of our fans.
That's the record I played and compared it to Wow.
Speaker 4 (36:47):
I mean, you knew though your ear, you have an
ear for music. And that's a brilliant thing to know
your craft.
Speaker 8 (36:53):
You know, that's a really good thing to know your
craft because a lot of people get in the business
and they don't know the craft.
Speaker 4 (36:58):
I mean, I was in the.
Speaker 8 (36:59):
Business before when I was doing hit him Up and
all those other things that he's like, Oh, come in
here and you gonna do that.
Speaker 4 (37:05):
I need you to go in there and do this.
And I'm like, okay, but you know I'm telling that
I can't sing, so he had to fly my voice in,
you know.
Speaker 8 (37:11):
So but God changed all that in two thousand and nine,
he gave me a gift out of the sound sleep,
you guys. I woke up out of a sound sleep
and started singing and writing lyrics.
Speaker 4 (37:21):
To the songs.
Speaker 8 (37:24):
This is after in two thousand and nine. He died
in two thousand and eight. Six months I was actually
prophesizing in April of two thousand and nine. The prophet
told me that I was going to be singing, and
I was like, ah.
Speaker 4 (37:37):
I laughed at him. I was like, no, I'm not
going to be singing. He was like, ah ha, yes
you're and your name's gonna be copied.
Speaker 6 (37:43):
I was.
Speaker 8 (37:45):
I was more intrigued that he knew my nickname, was like,
how did he know my nickname? That's only my family
and my childhood friends called me copy. So I was
sitting there like how did he know my name?
Speaker 4 (37:56):
Like I was in Triague.
Speaker 8 (37:56):
But three months later Old Mighty Gods showed up and
showed out. Was like I was, I was drowned in
a pool of water and I just walke up and
started singing at three in the morning.
Speaker 2 (38:05):
Gave you a gift before he left, because you know
you probably always wanted to sing.
Speaker 6 (38:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (38:13):
Nah, he gets there's a lot of things that somebody
passes away. Right the sun.
Speaker 3 (38:20):
Somebody passes away their spirit from always learning this from
musically any which way, and this with my father and
everyone taught me is somehow like my brother.
Speaker 2 (38:31):
Shout to my brother, just though and stuff like that.
He passed away, right, I was terrible, Like I'm going
to say that I was terrible Iron the two the
day he passed away. Three weeks later, I just started
becoming a nut freestyling off the head, learning how to
throw crazy balls, learn how to do all that she started.
(38:54):
He passed away. I just started becoming a beast.
Speaker 1 (38:58):
You're still a beast.
Speaker 4 (38:59):
No, I saw the video. It sounds good. I like that.
Speaker 1 (39:04):
Oh he's got more.
Speaker 8 (39:07):
The gift to sing and write, like literally on the spot,
I was writing the lyrics without music. Okay, I was
writing songs without lyrics. I wrote three or four songs.
But at moment, like getting up you imagine you sleep,
start singing at three in the morning, like I know,
and I start crying because I'm like what I'm singing.
Speaker 4 (39:25):
I'm like, I'm like, okay, wait a minute, what he said.
Speaker 8 (39:27):
And then I was in school at the time, so
I'm sitting there with the pad and I start writing
the words just writing all.
Speaker 4 (39:32):
These Christian songs.
Speaker 8 (39:34):
It's coming out of me. And then he's like, and
I told him afterwards, like, hey, it happened.
Speaker 4 (39:41):
He's like, well guess what. And I literally cried. You guys,
He's like, you got to write the You got to
use your husband's music to those lyrics. So can you imagine?
Speaker 8 (39:51):
I had to all these songs I wrote, I had
to match them up to his tracks the first album.
Speaker 4 (39:56):
I didn't write to the songs. I had to match
the lyrics that I had to the tracks.
Speaker 2 (40:01):
That was like, guide you the Lord, the Holy Spirit.
I give credit, no, no, the Holy Spirit. But I'm
saying to you, feel like your husband is around you
a lot.
Speaker 4 (40:12):
That music, That music is his heart. Beat, music is
his heart. I love that the music is his heart.

And that's the Holy Spirit because people are like you.

That's the only ghost writer I have is the Holy ghosts.
Speaker 2 (44:50):
Okay, artist, you're.
Speaker 1 (44:55):
Excuse me, you're confident, yes, well, praise that's because that's.
Speaker 2 (44:59):
What makes you so wrong as an artist, for your confidence.
And you could see it in your pen and you
can see it the way that you act, and you
can see it the way that you put yourself out you.
Speaker 4 (45:10):
God, bless you guys. Thank you.
Speaker 1 (45:12):
I'm confident I love the record and you're welcome. I'm
confident that I blew your mind.
Speaker 4 (45:21):
Can I tell you guys something?
Speaker 9 (45:22):
You know?
Speaker 8 (45:23):
I know you you're asking me, like about as far
as gifts and things like that, and as far as Johnny,
the beat is the heartbeat.
Speaker 4 (45:32):
The tracks is his heartbeat. And he always would say
to me, I wish you could sing like Mariah. I
wish you could sing like Whitney. He would say that
to me because he wanted he loved female singers. I
love female singers.
Speaker 8 (45:44):
And he worked with Tatiana before he passed away, but
he never got that chance to really do.
Speaker 4 (45:51):
The R and B side that he wanted to put
that out as a singer. But he said that to me,
I wish you could sing. And I'm like, well, honey,
just teach me.
Speaker 6 (46:02):
I'm on these little records.
Speaker 4 (46:04):
I call myself the uh girl. I'm the uh girl.
Speaker 8 (46:09):
So I was like, not that I didn't want the credit,
because on all eyes on me, I could have got
the credit.
Speaker 4 (46:14):
I'm the one who did the credits.
Speaker 8 (46:16):
I put the credit book together as far as giving
them all the information. So if I wanted credit. I
could have got the credit. I took care too, you know,
let to park and Johnny Shine and whoever else needed
to shine. It wasn't my time, and the delay is
not a denial in Jesus Mighty name.
Speaker 4 (46:32):
So I couldn't this my time.
Speaker 8 (46:34):
Because after fifteen years of recording artists, I've been called
for a time such as this. So it's time to
preach the non compromising word of God as we spew
out the old stuff that's been in there.
Speaker 4 (46:50):
Making a mess of instry.
Speaker 8 (46:52):
Oh my god, my dance in the dark, dance in
the dark. Well, I'm gonna bring out of the people
were in the dark to the light. So that's what
it's about, going into those clubs, going into these places
where people are in the darkness because you're listening in
that darkness earlier. And then we gotta as people of
the lights.
Speaker 3 (47:10):
I think I think that that song really put out
the light, man bro out the light. I heard that
it was a great, joyful song. And what I love
about it.
Speaker 2 (47:19):
Can I tell you what I what I love about
with the art is that you made and I'm going
to say this again, you made like one of them
hardcore rap sounds sounds so like much easier to listen to,
Like just like a known person that might not even
like rap, you make them feel like, okay, this is
a different genre. You know what I'm saying, So like
I heard it when I heard it, because it is again,
(47:42):
like I told you, I'm very known. I know that
very well.
Speaker 8 (47:46):
It's so funny you say that because you know, because
being told that you don't sound like anybody else. I'm like, good,
I shouldn't sound like anybody else. I think each art
should have their own art, right. We shouldn't be trying
to multiply the exact same thing that's out there. Right,
everybody should have their own individuality. And that's the problem
with the industry today. They're looking for the next Tupac
or the next anybody instead of looking at people who
(48:06):
are individuals. They have a problem with wanting to be
like somebody else instead of letting the artists be themselves.
Speaker 4 (48:12):
They want you to.
Speaker 2 (48:15):
Want the same conversation, and they want to reputate.
Speaker 4 (48:20):
You know it, stopped repkaying.
Speaker 8 (48:21):
This is not the movie multiplicity, because you're not gonna
get the same thing, you know, you multiplying, it's gonna
be multile.
Speaker 4 (48:27):
You know, it's gonna be watered down. So they got
to stop, you know, they got to stop that who
you are, Let me be who I am. Let everybody
be who they are, you know, and you're gonna have
more success.
Speaker 3 (48:39):
I think what I wanted to say to you is right.
I was talking her in the car and she goes
to me, she doesn't sound like anybody else, right, That's
why I want to But I started laughing and I go,
what do you mean? I said, But that's perfect, why
I said, because now, and that's what I love.
Speaker 2 (48:56):
I love when nobody sounds the same. And again, like
I said, again, and i'ma say one more time. I
knew what kind of authentic sound it was. That's why
I was shocked when I heard.
Speaker 1 (49:06):
It because a lot of times when I put on
the radio because obviously we have a radio show, right,
and a lot of times when you hear the music
and stuff, I can't Yeah, I can't differentiate artists, right,
you know. But then we do have artists on our
platform that when they're on, I know it's them, yes,
(49:26):
and there's all the other It's like maybe ten percent
of the people that we have on I know who
they are I.
Speaker 2 (49:34):
Want to sound real, blood and messed up. Most people
were listening to now and not artists. There just content.
Creators don't do it.
Speaker 3 (49:43):
They don't do it from their heart, and you don't
feel it like back in the day when I used
to listen to Pok, used to listen to even.
Speaker 2 (49:52):
Bigger any of them, you could feel it coming out
of them, like the passion. And nowadays all you're hearing
is a record slap on Melodon, slapped on, slapped on,
and people not really caring about the art. They just
care about Hey, I just want to be seeing the
popularity content.
Speaker 4 (50:10):
It's not like that for me.
Speaker 8 (50:11):
I think it was important. Even people said, well, like
why you have an extra hook in there? Because I
don't like to be bored in the song when I
hear a record, I.
Speaker 4 (50:18):
Want to hear some.
Speaker 8 (50:20):
I'm like, I think of myself as a consumer, like
I don't want to be bored on my own song
and be bored. I want some dynamics in there. I
can have two hooks, three hooks, some vamps, some super vams.
Speaker 4 (50:30):
Or whatever you want to call them.
Speaker 8 (50:31):
I can have some differences in the record where I
can have some hills and valleys where people are like, oh,
this is cool, and it changes. It doesn't have to
be the same thing. I'll start my song with an
intro and the hook. You know, I can change it
up and start talking. I don't have to be the
same format and the same formula. Well, you can't change
the format. Who says who says the formula? I have
(50:52):
heard record companies say, well, you're trying to change the formula.
Speaker 4 (50:56):
Well why should I?
Speaker 8 (51:00):
Exactly exactly, And I don't have to sound like myself
on every record.
Speaker 4 (51:04):
I can change my voice.
Speaker 2 (51:07):
Does Tupac sounding Temptations? The Temptations, you know what I'm saying,
sound like Lubumba? Does this one sound like this?
Speaker 1 (51:14):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (51:14):
But the way they write? No, not really. If you
look at the fore masts, everything is different through the
fore masts because of the beats.
Speaker 8 (51:22):
Yes, exactly. But if you think about after Tupac died,
how many people try to sound.
Speaker 2 (51:25):
Like everybody.
Speaker 8 (51:30):
You know, from every every spectrum for the labels. You
know what I'm saying, they all had a Tupac you.
Speaker 4 (51:37):
Know so and then.
Speaker 8 (51:41):
You know, yeah, I mean people came to Johnny and
tried to get signed, and they sound just like two
ways like, dude, I can't sign you. They're like, what,
but I got the dude, I can't sign the Tupac
be like, how can I sound?
Speaker 4 (51:57):
You sound just like my boy, like I can't sign.
Speaker 8 (52:04):
Right.
Speaker 4 (52:06):
Well, that's but there's exactly you know, how could you?
Speaker 8 (52:10):
There's one that sings for Christians in the Christian market
that sounds like it sounds like Bigbie too, you know,
And I say, though, I'm like, man, it would sound
dope on the track.
Speaker 1 (52:23):
Do you don't how many female singers try to sing
Whitney Houston's song, right, They try to, They try to
follow her, right, there's only one Whitney. You cannot do Whitney.
Speaker 2 (52:35):
I just never. I'm from the era where I never
just sang. I respect the Two Box so much and
and all those rappers. I never wanted to sound like
that because I feel like it's smacking in the face
if I try to steal their style.
Speaker 1 (52:47):
You can't try to copy greatness like that. I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (52:50):
No, you gotta you gotta inspiration you from them and
then switch it to your own life.
Speaker 4 (52:54):
You can't. If your voice sounds like here, you're gonna
have to change your voice.
Speaker 1 (53:00):
Yeah, come with me.
Speaker 2 (53:05):
He'll married come with Z. You know what I'm saying
this on the way home. I guarantee all you have
to do is your real voice. Like looking at me
all the kids now, I want to sound like pop
smoke people running them till they come on. Yeah, Like, okay,
(53:25):
that man invented that stock. Can we get on something new.
Speaker 4 (53:29):
We get from the record.
Speaker 8 (53:31):
You have to blame the record companies because they hear
that person. And even even back I was just saying,
back to the day when Johnny had he was still alive,
he was still after TUPAC and he was dealing with
the labels like m c A and stuff like that.
They were like, well, we need that no diggity styff,
we need that record, just like no diggity.
Speaker 4 (53:49):
No, we don't. He's like, no, we don't. They did,
no diggity. We need a different record.
Speaker 2 (53:53):
We don't need no diggity You push pens that don't
know the creator, We don't.
Speaker 4 (53:59):
They just like, that's the only way to make a
quick book, is that me.
Speaker 2 (54:03):
Yeah, you're gonna make a quick book like right now,
but then later on it's not gonna be suitable. Everybody's
gonna get rid of that trend. But okay, I'm gonna
have to interrupt. We have At the end of the show,

Let's go.
Speaker 4 (07:21):
Welcome, Welcome, welcome, Thank you for having me.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Please me.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
So I wanted to start off first of all, because
I did my research with her. Okay, So Copy obviously comes.
When you were like a young girl, they called you
were nicknamed Copy because of the color of your hair.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
Yes, that is so.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
Now I know when my father called me Frizzy, that
was a good.
Speaker 4 (07:56):
Before all nicknames was was a popul thing.
Speaker 7 (08:00):
You know old.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
So yeah, So I want to start off because I
know you are actually the sixth of eleven siblings. How
is that growing up?
Speaker 4 (08:12):
Oh, that was a lot of sharing clothes.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
How many boys and how many girls?
Speaker 4 (08:19):
It is six girls of four boys?
Speaker 1 (08:23):
Oh wow?
Speaker 4 (08:24):
Yeah a six sisters four you know?
Speaker 7 (08:27):
Right?
Speaker 1 (08:27):
Yeah? No, I got it, like a wow, just wow.
So you're obviously in the middle. So are any of
them into the music entertainment field like you or is
it just you alone?
Speaker 4 (08:41):
My brothers and sisters. I have a sister that is
in the entertainment field. Her name is Charles.
Speaker 2 (08:47):
Oh, yes, like.
Speaker 4 (08:50):
That's where my mom got the name from. Yes, she's
a produced Remember Charro.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Wasn't she Colombian or something?
Speaker 4 (08:58):
Right? I think I always s Yes, that's where my
mom got her name from.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Okay, so you started off obviously because now I did again,
like I say, I always do my research. Okay, So
she you were with Johnny j and you were married,
and then you both also developed a clockwork. I did
not know you produced artists such as Tupac. Yes, right, yes,
(09:31):
I mean.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
Produced one hundred songs, over a hundred songs for Tupac.
Speaker 6 (09:35):
Wow, what is that?
Speaker 1 (09:37):
That is crazy.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
What wait, Johnny, you're talking about the legendary money. Yes, yes,
that was your husband.
Speaker 4 (09:48):
I was like, what.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
Old time ago man seen Johnny. Let me just explain
to you.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
When we do this show. Okay, I'm the talker. I
do all the research and everything, and the hell out of.
Speaker 8 (10:03):
Him he's look shocked, like Okay, now I'm looking at
you guys, like, why is he so shocked?
Speaker 1 (10:11):
You do all the research? Okay, hold on a second.
You know, I'm saying to myself as sometimes when I
when I look at people and I see what's going
on in their history and stuff like that, and I'm like, yeah,
Danny's gonna like this. Oh he's gonna I'm not gonna.
Speaker 4 (10:29):
Tell him you surprised him.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
Look at me.
Speaker 8 (10:34):
He's like stump shock, look at him. It makes me
feel good that it's off my merit. I haven't used
that his name, I haven't swung it around. And so
it's good that I'm getting recognized for the work I'm
doing for Christ and not just because of Johnny, who
was who was a legendary producer solo a million records.
(10:57):
So and it's important that that I put everything right
with the Holy Spirit give me the lyrics to the tracks.
These tracks are Johnny J tracks. Yeah, so, and it's
off my merit and not just his.
Speaker 4 (11:12):
So that makes me feel good that you guys are
recognizing my music.
Speaker 3 (11:16):
You got to realize something too. Yeah, an artist to
come in, he probably was inspired by stuff that you
were doing too. So it's like you always got to
look at that too, because me and her as a team.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
Right, yes, exactly, yes, yes, the mirror and the music
in itself.
Speaker 8 (11:33):
I mean, I don't know without me telling you everything
before you ask me, is all inspired.
Speaker 4 (11:40):
You know.
Speaker 8 (11:40):
I wrote all these songs to his tracks, Johnny J.
Tracks that you're hearing, the whole albums, all the last
three albums that I've done, and the next ones and
the next one.
Speaker 4 (11:50):
He left a lot of music behind that.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
A lot of people don't give this woman an.
Speaker 4 (11:57):
Yeah, it's been a long road. I'll just tell you that.
A lot of you know what I'm persevering on and.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
Next to success, so you understand how to get to success.
And the cool thing about her. What I like about
her though, is you know when somebody is very successful, right,
they don't need to talk about the accolades, and they
don't need to be sitting there and pushing the accolades
on people, you know what I mean. That's how you
know when somebody really made it. But somebody really made it.
It's so comfortable with knowing their achievements that they really
(12:31):
don't even talk about their achievements. They want to get
more achievements and push themselves out in a different roup.
Now my question to you is this you ready yes,
just being just having your husband with you, right, did
he teach you a lot of like the ropes of
the game, Like when you were like next to him,
like who was like a lot of the artists that
(12:52):
basically you were around that kind of like inspired you.
Was like, Wow, we're actually making history right here.
Speaker 4 (12:57):
I was around everybody.
Speaker 8 (12:58):
I was in the studio with Twopa, like Snoop Dogg,
in the studio with everybody every session, Tupac and Johnny
j had I was there. I was the person behind
the scenes doing all the business aspects for Johnny. So
that's why I already knew the business. I just didn't
know the Christian market, you know, I didn't know that game.
That was a whole that's a whole different game, you know.
Speaker 4 (13:20):
So and that.
Speaker 8 (13:21):
You know, that's something that came along after God gave
me the gift to sing out of a sound. But
every artist that you can think of, I mean, I
was around him with all the studio sessions. I was
in there in the studio with him on the couch
making sure that those the business aspect of it was right,
the songs that he did writing down.
Speaker 4 (13:40):
Sitting in the studio, I was archiving.
Speaker 8 (13:42):
The information as there's all everyone's coming in there, writing
the song information down and making sure that he got
his credits and his credits are going to mount into
dollar signs, you know, making sure that aspect is right.
Because along the way he had the soup for the
music and the money. He had the sue. You know,
not long after before Tupac died, he.
Speaker 4 (14:03):
Had the soup.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
I got another little tidbit hair for you.
Speaker 4 (14:12):
This is so much fun.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
You have no idea. She also had parts on the
record for Coolio in Gangs. Look at.
Speaker 4 (14:23):
It was a skit. It was a skit recoup this
that's me on the skit. He's clipping off of that.
It's gonna not that song, the skit, the skip.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
I know, I know, there's hey, I screaming and everything said,
how did I get you to get in the.
Speaker 8 (14:52):
Studio Echo Sound with Johnny and Tupac and Coolio comes
over there and says, hey, can I use your wife?
Speaker 4 (15:00):
I have to come the song?
Speaker 8 (15:02):
And I'm like, he's like, yeah, go ahead, And I
went over there and he's he already had the line
written out for me to say, and then I just
did the part and I was like, he was like,
you want somebody? I said, no, I'm good. Me came
back over there and he's like, what's your name? And
give me what's your credit? You give me some credit?
Speaker 4 (15:20):
And you know, and that was it.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Did you get it? Did you get a plaque for
that too? No?
Speaker 8 (15:26):
I never asked for anything. And it's so funny because
years down, I literally only a couple of years ago,
looked up the credits. I never even looked up the
album or anything to see if I was on it.
I just googled it a couple of years ago, and
I was like, wait a minute, I heard it because
people were You're on that record, you know they're on
the record, and I was like, am I did I
really make the record?
Speaker 2 (15:46):
I was like, record, I was on the album.
Speaker 4 (15:51):
Gangs to paradise.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
This album.
Speaker 4 (15:53):
Back in the day they had skits. I was the
girl and the skit recoup. This is called the title
is called reco this.
Speaker 2 (16:02):
Oh my god, I know the song too. That is hilarious.
Speaker 8 (16:07):
Yeah, there's more than that. I was on so but
I never asked for credit. I never wanted credit. I
never was like, give me credit. So if he's tripping
off of this one, he's gonna trip off.
Speaker 4 (16:16):
The other one that hit him up.
Speaker 6 (16:21):
Take money.
Speaker 9 (16:26):
Yo.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
They always thought, can you please explain to me? Can
you explain to me how that happened? And I promise
you I'm gonna get to that Christian music because I
want to get that. I need to repent.
Speaker 4 (16:44):
Myself has forgiven me for that. Okay, the Lord.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
At the end of the day. Look at the end
of the day, never be sha accomplishment.
Speaker 4 (16:57):
I'm not. But you know, Hi, everything went down. You
know what I'm saying. You've become a part of something that.
You know, everything happened and people lost their lives. So
you know I was a part of you know, people
lost their lives over that. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
You gotta understand that it wasn't anybody's fault.
Speaker 4 (17:15):
No, it wasn't it.
Speaker 8 (17:16):
Actually, when I ashamed of it and I've been promoting,
yeah that's me, you know, people like, yeah, right, it's Faith.
So why would Faith Evans be on her own disc record.
I mean, that just doesn't even make any sense. The
only female in the studio. Most times it would be
me and nine guys with my husband, Johnny was there,
you know, but be me, Tupac, Johnny, the Outlaws and
(17:39):
whoever else would come and be on the features for
the for the day, you know, sometimes female singers and
stuff like that.
Speaker 4 (17:47):
A song, but I was told.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
Death at the time, I was going to be I
want to say something. You are you are technique. My
question goes like this, is you ready? My cousin goes you,
I know it wasn't faked on that record. Okay, you
can hear that it's not Faith because of a certain tone.
My is Can you just give me a quick story
(18:10):
how they got you on that record? Oh?
Speaker 8 (18:13):
My husband Tupac said before he left, he said, hey,
I need somebody on there to do that. I'm the
only female that I need a girl in there doing
the take money because they had to get money.
Speaker 4 (18:22):
Part I went in there. He said, just do this part.
Speaker 8 (18:25):
I'm gonna sample you in and I'm gonna take money,
take money, about three times and he sampled me in.
Speaker 6 (18:34):
And how was that?
Speaker 4 (18:35):
You know?
Speaker 1 (18:35):
It just reminds me of I think her name is
Lauren Aldred. She was the voice beyond behind the Greatest
Showman on Earth the song never Enough, and everybody thought
the actress in the movie actually sang the song when
it really wasn't her.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
Well they thought it wasn't so they thought that.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
And then she was on AG America has Got Talent
and she performed that song for the first time and said, everybody,
you know that was me, that was you.
Speaker 4 (19:08):
You know, that was me, that was me.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
That is money And.
Speaker 4 (19:12):
That's not the only one. Death around the corner. I
know what's wrong with that crazy mother? That's me too.
You not trying to curse, but you know that's me
too on that one. How do you want it doing
(19:32):
the little ooze.
Speaker 8 (19:33):
And ahs and how do you want to Yeah, that's
me too, my record, man, you want the radio version,
the oohs and the os on there, you know, So
that was me on those and there's some more on there.
There's some more that I've done.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
How was it being around Tupac? I'm working with Tupaca.
Speaker 4 (19:53):
That was my little brother. He was amazing.
Speaker 8 (19:56):
I mean, people don't even know this picture me Roland
Tupac was up in the studio.
Speaker 4 (20:00):
He was sitting there with just me and him.
Speaker 8 (20:02):
Everybody went in the room to go eat in the
hallway or whatever together the kitchen area, and it's me
and him in there. He's at the board, suck. I'm like,
what's going on. I'm at I'm at the couch and
I'm like, what's happening on?
Speaker 4 (20:14):
What's going on?
Speaker 8 (20:14):
Because you're normally flowing. And he's like, I'm just just
stuck right now. I'm like, you stuck ki your stuff.
But he had already written about twenty songs already, right so,
and I'm like, he's like, I'm trying to figure out
what I said. He had pictured me for rolling in
my five hundred bands or something. He had like three lines,
and I'm like, I'm like, your title is right there,
(20:35):
picture me rolling.
Speaker 4 (20:36):
That's your title.
Speaker 6 (20:37):
And he's like, oh my god, oh my god.
Speaker 4 (20:40):
He ran out of the studio. He ran in the kitchen.
He said, your wife just gave me a dope title.
Speaker 8 (20:45):
He was so excited, and you know, I never took credit,
but I just think it's important for people to know
the history behind it.
Speaker 4 (20:51):
He was so excited and just.
Speaker 8 (20:52):
That memory of him running out of the studio of
excitement because he was stuck. And then CPO couldn't get
his stuff together. I took him a long time to
write his verse, and Tupac was like, he was like
irritated because he nobody does that so fast, and he
had to help him write his you know, he was
in between the verse because he couldn't get his verse together.
Speaker 4 (21:13):
That's why you hear Tupac and CPO going back and forth. Yeah,
he couldn't. He had problems writing the song.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
You should really write a book.
Speaker 4 (21:24):
Who was already have a.
Speaker 8 (21:26):
Two hundred and fifty page manuscript already already, I've already written.
I'm just putting everything together for his documentary and.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
The right thing to that. Like, I liked Johnny Jay
did this. This is one thing that I thought he
did that was really dope, and I think it was
with the Outlaws. He attributed Tupac and the video was
just amazing. What he did for Tupac.
Speaker 4 (21:53):
I never forget he did that. We had.
Speaker 8 (21:57):
Napoleon was our artist on our label, Clockwork, and that
was a tribute that that was the first single to
the album that he produced for Napoleon and Napoleon. It
was definitely a dope, you know, tribute. Napoleon had stopped
rapping and gave me Muslim So we shelved the autum
(22:19):
and it was actually a double CD we had did.
Speaker 4 (22:23):
We did a double CD. Johnny was going to get
a distribution deal.
Speaker 7 (22:27):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (22:27):
But then there's some behind the scenes Hayterray going on and.
Speaker 2 (22:33):
Pot died literally.
Speaker 4 (22:35):
Getting a distribution deal.
Speaker 8 (22:37):
You know, it was shut down. So all a lot
of things that happened. It's my It's in my book
is a lot of things, a lot of things that's happened.
And and then I got to see a lot and
all praise be to Almighty God that I'm still here, living,
breathing and able to tell the stories and you know,
and retain my youth at the same time.
Speaker 4 (22:54):

because I want to get some of her songs on here,
go ahead, okay. So after in college, after the passing
of Johnny, she was reintroduced to the Bible by her professor. Yes,
and that's where she went into that area. Okay, And
her first song was Holy Groove. Now, when she sent
(23:46):

supposed to do right.
Speaker 6 (27:27):
Supposed to live their life right, hit the game.
Speaker 8 (27:30):
It don't make it right for a woman to go
to man and man, or a man to go from
woman and a woman every night we often, but it's
time to repent now. I'm not just talking about Steve
and Steve or Eve and Eve. Adam and Eve already
don't mess it up for all of us. So it's
time for us to do what God wants to do.
And she's already and died on the cross, of course,
it's time for us to pick the get y'all. Check
(27:51):
the pictures Compesius into the bowels of marstr Man and a.
Speaker 5 (27:57):
Woman like.
Speaker 2 (28:09):
I record. I'm gonna say that record was dope and.
Speaker 8 (28:13):
It actually went number one on the world Indie charts
and in Europe it went number one, y'all.
Speaker 4 (28:18):
Praise God Jesus.
Speaker 3 (28:21):
So what do you think the difference is right between
the business of the you know, the regular industry that
we know in the Christian music industry.
Speaker 4 (28:32):
I think it has. It's not that different wise as gatekeepers.
Speaker 8 (28:40):
Uh, just like there are gatekeepers in the secular world
and the save world, there are still gatekeepers also, and
I experienced it. I experienced it at a high levels,
just as much as people have in the secular world.
And that is the one thing that actually one of
the gatekeepers, who's supposed to be one of God's children,
fearing the plateaus vessels to help us get on board,
(29:05):
said to me, well, you don't sound like anybody else.
You don't sound like anything that all the ten records
that I have right here, radio doesn't want your music.
And I was like, hmm, I got emotional a little bit.
I said no, I said, Father, you didn't call me
to be like anybody else. I don't have to be
in the box that they want to put me in.
I'm not supposed to sound like anybody else. And I'm
(29:25):
not preaching a non I'm preaching a non compromising word
of God. And I think they were fearing that because
you got to understand a lot of these people who
are are in the safe world are also have people
who are in the second world who they have to
still look up to I've had many people I've paid
to do stuff and they call themselves Christian people and
(29:46):
they've taken my money and didn't do their.
Speaker 4 (29:47):
Job, you know. So I've had to battle.
Speaker 8 (29:50):
And it's so funny that now my music is it's
on the national charts. We're not the Christian charts, just
on the wor World White Charts, on on Media Base,
number thirty seven on the charts as far as the
top forty Praise God, and I'm one number thirty nine.
Speaker 4 (30:08):
Ain't see you, guys. This is all because of God
first and foremost.
Speaker 8 (30:14):
But I said, you know what, when that person said
that to me, I said, no, I went through the
Indie Bible and I got that, and I found contacts
through that, the Indie Bible dot com, and I was like,
and I just persevered.
Speaker 4 (30:25):
It took me a while, you guys, I've been singing.
Speaker 8 (30:28):
I got to get to sing in two thousand and
nine and I'm just now it's been fifteen years, you guys.
It's been a battle. But you know what, with God,
all things are possible. A delay is not Deniah in Jesus.
Speaker 4 (30:39):
Mighty name, it is not.
Speaker 8 (30:40):
And I was not giving up because I'm doing it
to win souls. I didn't do it to be anything
else but to win souls. But anything else that come
up with, I'm gonna embrace every aspect of it.
Speaker 4 (30:50):
You know.
Speaker 2 (30:51):
They said the same thing about a rapper. Let's see
if you know who who look Cray?
Speaker 4 (30:56):
Oh okay, well yeah, I've heard that him down. Yes, yes,
Cray Cray.
Speaker 2 (31:03):
I met him, you know what I'm saying. They did.
Speaker 3 (31:05):
I remember they used to do the same thing to
La Craze when he was trying to do the Christian rap,
and they would always give him me a lugs to
say it. I remember that I actually got to speak
to him. But this is a long time agoing O
six okay, coming, and I remember, and we.
Speaker 2 (31:20):
Just kept writing, you know, please just keep knocking the
door down, Please just keep knocking that door down. And
he knocked the door down. I think it was like
two thousand and fourteen.
Speaker 8 (31:29):
Okay, well, Tim, I met him in ten when he
just got award. Maybe he just got a Grammy in
twenty eleven. Yes, I met him with Vicky Mack and everything.
They were having a little event.
Speaker 4 (31:41):
Yeah. I got to meet a lot of the people.
It's so funny that I went backstage.
Speaker 8 (31:46):
It's so funny because the Lord told me that I
was going to meet a lot of people and I
was going to be there and I was going to
see it all, but I wasn't going to have And
this was Prophecy told me also along with the confirmation
the Lord giving it to me that I wasn't ann
have any breakthroughs until my third album. This is the
third album, you guys. Okay, I would have un til
(32:06):
my third album. I didn't know it was gonna be
stressed out this long fifteen years, you guys. But it's
okay because I'm doing it to win souls for price,
and I've been called for a time such as this,
like Queen Esther, So you know what we got to
say our people, you guys, that's what it's about.
Speaker 4 (32:23):
You know, That's what it's about.
Speaker 8 (32:25):
And right now, as you see what's going on in
the world, what they're trying to do, man's gender and
all these things, I'm gonna spak about it.
Speaker 4 (32:31):
I'm gona talk about it.
Speaker 8 (32:32):
That's my song picked the gag that was from my
first album, you guys, so I had I was fearless
to talk about it then and I'm fearless to talk
about it now, you know. But some of the things
that's going on was way back when I already recorded
the song yeah, oh war cry that I don't know
if you guys listen to it, they've been I've been sanctioned.
Speaker 2 (32:52):
We heard it. She right, you gave me so this
is the thing though, right, because you know I do
a lot of Yeah, I listened to a lot of
the records, so don't get twisted like she won't tell
me a lot of times of information and going with surprise.
Speaker 3 (33:06):
But she showed me all your records and I told her,
you know what I told her and is a funny thing.
And she's gonna even say it. I said, this sounds
like a Tupac sound. She looks at me, and she
just looks at me and she goes like this, No.
Speaker 2 (33:24):
That's why I was shocked when she said, John, because
I was listening to the production and then I was
listening to the way that you were doing it, and
I'm like, babe, this sounds like a nineteen ninety six
kind of do.
Speaker 1 (33:35):
You know how much I had told my tongue okay?
Speaker 4 (33:38):
And she looked was a surprise. You have to whold like,
you can't say anything. You're good friend, You're that friend
that have it.
Speaker 2 (33:46):
She's not gonna say nothing. Listen to me. She looked
at me, she was like this.
Speaker 1 (33:52):
I was like, okay, cool, yeah, and she so well.
Speaker 2 (33:56):
Because the thing is, I always listened to your husband
and production the kid, so thank you when I would
hear music right when I would hear that type of sound,
because Tupac was the only one, because West Coast. That's
why I told him this had to be a West
Coast concept.
Speaker 3 (34:15):
Looking at me, she's just looking like no, no, no,
because I know my production, I know my artist, and
I can hear it. So I look at her and
I know this sounds like a like a kind of
like a Tupac sound. But I was like thinking, I
was thinking his name in there because I remember I
know a lot of records that he made that I
would always tune out, and I was listening.
Speaker 2 (34:36):
Like the All Eye on Me album and stuff like that.
Speaker 4 (34:38):
Songs on there he did eleven songs. I know why.
Speaker 2 (34:42):
When I heard it, I was like this is I
was like, who is? Because tell her production?
Speaker 1 (34:52):
I was like no, no, I kept talking. You know
what it was because I was.
Speaker 2 (34:55):
Playing the Tupac record and I was like, and it
was your record.
Speaker 1 (35:02):
So the thing was is that once we knew that
you were coming on the show, when usually people are
coming on the show, I start doing my research. It's
not the day before, okay, So little by little I
look at the videos on Instagram or I'll look at Wikipedia,
you know, everywhere, just to get those little tidbits. When
I started putting two and two together, I'm like, this
(35:23):
is going to blow his mind.
Speaker 2 (35:24):
And you know what I played? You know what, I
stopped a minute before you left a little record I
played and I looked at you when I said, this sounds.
Speaker 1 (35:33):
Like it I don't remember.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
How do you want it?
Speaker 4 (35:36):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (35:37):
Yeah that one?
Speaker 1 (35:37):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (35:38):
Okay, what do you think because do you want it?
Speaker 4 (35:42):
Oh? That's too funny.
Speaker 1 (35:44):
What do you.
Speaker 4 (35:49):
See? You have your musicology, as it must be, your
is very music. Yes. So for you to know that
and can just say that and compare that, that's amazing.
Speaker 1 (36:03):
This is mister music Pedia. Okay.
Speaker 2 (36:05):
Yeah, but that just blew my mind because it was
just like I played growing Up and and I looked
at her and I'm like this this kind of sounds
like hold up. I said, slow, slow down there, slow down?
That didna she slowed down on what record was it?
Was it Wars or the other one? It was Wars.
(36:26):
I said slow down there for a minute, and I
heard it.
Speaker 10 (36:28):
I kept playing honey on it. That's why it blew
my mind. In my mind when you said that, why
do you think I walked? Do you think I was
about to get up and literally walk away? Because she
is my witness right now for all of our fans.
That's the record I played and compared it to Wow.
Speaker 4 (36:47):
I mean, you knew though your ear, you have an
ear for music. And that's a brilliant thing to know
your craft.
Speaker 8 (36:53):
You know, that's a really good thing to know your
craft because a lot of people get in the business
and they don't know the craft.
Speaker 4 (36:58):
I mean, I was in the.
Speaker 8 (36:59):
Business before when I was doing hit him Up and
all those other things that he's like, Oh, come in
here and you gonna do that.
Speaker 4 (37:05):
I need you to go in there and do this.
And I'm like, okay, but you know I'm telling that
I can't sing, so he had to fly my voice in,
you know.
Speaker 8 (37:11):
So but God changed all that in two thousand and nine,
he gave me a gift out of the sound sleep,
you guys. I woke up out of a sound sleep
and started singing and writing lyrics.
Speaker 4 (37:21):
To the songs.
Speaker 8 (37:24):
This is after in two thousand and nine. He died
in two thousand and eight. Six months I was actually
prophesizing in April of two thousand and nine. The prophet
told me that I was going to be singing, and
I was like, ah.
Speaker 4 (37:37):
I laughed at him. I was like, no, I'm not
going to be singing. He was like, ah ha, yes
you're and your name's gonna be copied.
Speaker 6 (37:43):
I was.
Speaker 8 (37:45):
I was more intrigued that he knew my nickname, was like,
how did he know my nickname? That's only my family
and my childhood friends called me copy. So I was
sitting there like how did he know my name?
Speaker 4 (37:56):
Like I was in Triague.
Speaker 8 (37:56):
But three months later Old Mighty Gods showed up and
showed out. Was like I was, I was drowned in
a pool of water and I just walke up and
started singing at three in the morning.
Speaker 2 (38:05):
Gave you a gift before he left, because you know
you probably always wanted to sing.
Speaker 6 (38:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (38:13):
Nah, he gets there's a lot of things that somebody
passes away. Right the sun.
Speaker 3 (38:20):
Somebody passes away their spirit from always learning this from
musically any which way, and this with my father and
everyone taught me is somehow like my brother.
Speaker 2 (38:31):
Shout to my brother, just though and stuff like that.
He passed away, right, I was terrible, Like I'm going
to say that I was terrible Iron the two the
day he passed away. Three weeks later, I just started
becoming a nut freestyling off the head, learning how to
throw crazy balls, learn how to do all that she started.
(38:54):
He passed away. I just started becoming a beast.
Speaker 1 (38:58):
You're still a beast.
Speaker 4 (38:59):
No, I saw the video. It sounds good. I like that.
Speaker 1 (39:04):
Oh he's got more.
Speaker 8 (39:07):
The gift to sing and write, like literally on the spot,
I was writing the lyrics without music. Okay, I was
writing songs without lyrics. I wrote three or four songs.
But at moment, like getting up you imagine you sleep,
start singing at three in the morning, like I know,
and I start crying because I'm like what I'm singing.
Speaker 4 (39:25):
I'm like, I'm like, okay, wait a minute, what he said.
Speaker 8 (39:27):
And then I was in school at the time, so
I'm sitting there with the pad and I start writing
the words just writing all.
Speaker 4 (39:32):
These Christian songs.
Speaker 8 (39:34):
It's coming out of me. And then he's like, and
I told him afterwards, like, hey, it happened.
Speaker 4 (39:41):
He's like, well guess what. And I literally cried. You guys,
He's like, you got to write the You got to
use your husband's music to those lyrics. So can you imagine?
Speaker 8 (39:51):
I had to all these songs I wrote, I had
to match them up to his tracks the first album.
Speaker 4 (39:56):
I didn't write to the songs. I had to match
the lyrics that I had to the tracks.
Speaker 2 (40:01):
That was like, guide you the Lord, the Holy Spirit.
I give credit, no, no, the Holy Spirit. But I'm
saying to you, feel like your husband is around you
a lot.
Speaker 4 (40:12):
That music, That music is his heart. Beat, music is
his heart. I love that the music is his heart.
Speaker 2 (40:19):
Not here another another record.

Speaker 2 (44:50):
Okay, artist, you're.
Speaker 1 (44:55):
Excuse me, you're confident, yes, well, praise that's because that's.
Speaker 2 (44:59):
What makes you so wrong as an artist, for your confidence.
And you could see it in your pen and you
can see it the way that you act, and you
can see it the way that you put yourself out you.
Speaker 4 (45:10):
God, bless you guys. Thank you.
Speaker 1 (45:12):
I'm confident I love the record and you're welcome. I'm
confident that I blew your mind.
Speaker 4 (45:21):
Can I tell you guys something?
Speaker 9 (45:22):
You know?
Speaker 8 (45:23):
I know you you're asking me, like about as far
as gifts and things like that, and as far as Johnny,
the beat is the heartbeat.
Speaker 4 (45:32):
The tracks is his heartbeat. And he always would say
to me, I wish you could sing like Mariah. I
wish you could sing like Whitney. He would say that
to me because he wanted he loved female singers. I
love female singers.
Speaker 8 (45:44):
And he worked with Tatiana before he passed away, but
he never got that chance to really do.
Speaker 4 (45:51):
The R and B side that he wanted to put
that out as a singer. But he said that to me,
I wish you could sing. And I'm like, well, honey,
just teach me.
Speaker 6 (46:02):
I'm on these little records.
Speaker 4 (46:04):
I call myself the uh girl. I'm the uh girl.
Speaker 8 (46:09):
So I was like, not that I didn't want the credit,
because on all eyes on me, I could have got
the credit.
Speaker 4 (46:14):
I'm the one who did the credits.
Speaker 8 (46:16):
I put the credit book together as far as giving
them all the information. So if I wanted credit. I
could have got the credit. I took care too, you know,
let to park and Johnny Shine and whoever else needed
to shine. It wasn't my time, and the delay is
not a denial in Jesus Mighty name.
Speaker 4 (46:32):
So I couldn't this my time.
Speaker 8 (46:34):
Because after fifteen years of recording artists, I've been called
for a time such as this. So it's time to
preach the non compromising word of God as we spew
out the old stuff that's been in there.
Speaker 4 (46:50):
Making a mess of instry.
Speaker 8 (46:52):
Oh my god, my dance in the dark, dance in
the dark. Well, I'm gonna bring out of the people
were in the dark to the light. So that's what
it's about, going into those clubs, going into these places
where people are in the darkness because you're listening in
that darkness earlier. And then we gotta as people of
the lights.
Speaker 3 (47:10):
I think I think that that song really put out
the light, man bro out the light. I heard that
it was a great, joyful song. And what I love
about it.
Speaker 2 (47:19):
Can I tell you what I what I love about
with the art is that you made and I'm going
to say this again, you made like one of them
hardcore rap sounds sounds so like much easier to listen to,
Like just like a known person that might not even
like rap, you make them feel like, okay, this is
a different genre. You know what I'm saying, So like
I heard it when I heard it, because it is again,
(47:42):
like I told you, I'm very known. I know that
very well.
Speaker 8 (47:46):
It's so funny you say that because you know, because
being told that you don't sound like anybody else. I'm like, good,
I shouldn't sound like anybody else. I think each art
should have their own art, right. We shouldn't be trying
to multiply the exact same thing that's out there. Right,
everybody should have their own individuality. And that's the problem
with the industry today. They're looking for the next Tupac
or the next anybody instead of looking at people who
(48:06):
are individuals. They have a problem with wanting to be
like somebody else instead of letting the artists be themselves.
Speaker 4 (48:12):
They want you to.
Speaker 2 (48:15):
Want the same conversation, and they want to reputate.
Speaker 4 (48:20):
You know it, stopped repkaying.
Speaker 8 (48:21):
This is not the movie multiplicity, because you're not gonna
get the same thing, you know, you multiplying, it's gonna
be multile.
Speaker 4 (48:27):
You know, it's gonna be watered down. So they got
to stop, you know, they got to stop that who
you are, Let me be who I am. Let everybody
be who they are, you know, and you're gonna have
more success.
Speaker 3 (48:39):
I think what I wanted to say to you is right.
I was talking her in the car and she goes
to me, she doesn't sound like anybody else, right, That's
why I want to But I started laughing and I go,
what do you mean? I said, But that's perfect, why
I said, because now, and that's what I love.
Speaker 2 (48:56):
I love when nobody sounds the same. And again, like
I said, again, and i'ma say one more time. I
knew what kind of authentic sound it was. That's why
I was shocked when I heard.
Speaker 1 (49:06):
It because a lot of times when I put on
the radio because obviously we have a radio show, right,
and a lot of times when you hear the music
and stuff, I can't Yeah, I can't differentiate artists, right,
you know. But then we do have artists on our
platform that when they're on, I know it's them, yes,
(49:26):
and there's all the other It's like maybe ten percent
of the people that we have on I know who
they are I.
Speaker 2 (49:34):
Want to sound real, blood and messed up. Most people
were listening to now and not artists. There just content.
Creators don't do it.
Speaker 3 (49:43):
They don't do it from their heart, and you don't
feel it like back in the day when I used
to listen to Pok, used to listen to even.
Speaker 2 (49:52):
Bigger any of them, you could feel it coming out
of them, like the passion. And nowadays all you're hearing
is a record slap on Melodon, slapped on, slapped on,
and people not really caring about the art. They just
care about Hey, I just want to be seeing the
popularity content.
Speaker 4 (50:10):
It's not like that for me.
Speaker 8 (50:11):
I think it was important. Even people said, well, like
why you have an extra hook in there? Because I
don't like to be bored in the song when I
hear a record, I.
Speaker 4 (50:18):
Want to hear some.
Speaker 8 (50:20):
I'm like, I think of myself as a consumer, like
I don't want to be bored on my own song
and be bored. I want some dynamics in there. I
can have two hooks, three hooks, some vamps, some super vams.
Speaker 4 (50:30):
Or whatever you want to call them.
Speaker 8 (50:31):
I can have some differences in the record where I
can have some hills and valleys where people are like, oh,
this is cool, and it changes. It doesn't have to
be the same thing. I'll start my song with an
intro and the hook. You know, I can change it
up and start talking. I don't have to be the
same format and the same formula. Well, you can't change
the format. Who says who says the formula? I have
(50:52):
heard record companies say, well, you're trying to change the formula.
Speaker 4 (50:56):
Well why should I?
Speaker 8 (51:00):
Exactly exactly, And I don't have to sound like myself
on every record.
Speaker 4 (51:04):
I can change my voice.
Speaker 2 (51:07):
Does Tupac sounding Temptations? The Temptations, you know what I'm saying,
sound like Lubumba? Does this one sound like this?
Speaker 1 (51:14):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (51:14):
But the way they write? No, not really. If you
look at the fore masts, everything is different through the
fore masts because of the beats.
Speaker 8 (51:22):
Yes, exactly. But if you think about after Tupac died,
how many people try to sound.
Speaker 2 (51:25):
Like everybody.
Speaker 8 (51:30):
You know, from every every spectrum for the labels. You
know what I'm saying, they all had a Tupac you.
Speaker 4 (51:37):
Know so and then.
Speaker 8 (51:41):
You know, yeah, I mean people came to Johnny and
tried to get signed, and they sound just like two
ways like, dude, I can't sign you. They're like, what,
but I got the dude, I can't sign the Tupac
be like, how can I sound?
Speaker 4 (51:57):
You sound just like my boy, like I can't sign.
Speaker 8 (52:04):
Right.
Speaker 4 (52:06):
Well, that's but there's exactly you know, how could you?
Speaker 8 (52:10):
There's one that sings for Christians in the Christian market
that sounds like it sounds like Bigbie too, you know,
And I say, though, I'm like, man, it would sound
dope on the track.
Speaker 1 (52:23):
Do you don't how many female singers try to sing
Whitney Houston's song, right, They try to, They try to
follow her, right, there's only one Whitney. You cannot do Whitney.
Speaker 2 (52:35):
I just never. I'm from the era where I never
just sang. I respect the Two Box so much and
and all those rappers. I never wanted to sound like
that because I feel like it's smacking in the face
if I try to steal their style.
Speaker 1 (52:47):
You can't try to copy greatness like that. I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (52:50):
No, you gotta you gotta inspiration you from them and
then switch it to your own life.
Speaker 4 (52:54):
You can't. If your voice sounds like here, you're gonna
have to change your voice.
Speaker 1 (53:00):
Yeah, come with me.
Speaker 2 (53:05):
He'll married come with Z. You know what I'm saying
this on the way home. I guarantee all you have
to do is your real voice. Like looking at me
all the kids now, I want to sound like pop
smoke people running them till they come on. Yeah, Like, okay,
(53:25):
that man invented that stock. Can we get on something new.
Speaker 4 (53:29):
We get from the record.
Speaker 8 (53:31):
You have to blame the record companies because they hear
that person. And even even back I was just saying,
back to the day when Johnny had he was still alive,
he was still after TUPAC and he was dealing with
the labels like m c A and stuff like that.
They were like, well, we need that no diggity styff,
we need that record, just like no diggity.
Speaker 4 (53:49):
No, we don't. He's like, no, we don't. They did,
no diggity. We need a different record.
Speaker 2 (53:53):
We don't need no diggity You push pens that don't
know the creator, We don't.
Speaker 4 (53:59):
They just like, that's the only way to make a
quick book, is that me.
Speaker 2 (54:03):
Yeah, you're gonna make a quick book like right now,
but then later on it's not gonna be suitable. Everybody's
gonna get rid of that trend. But okay, I'm gonna
have to interrupt. We have At the end of the show,
