So tell me. I want to talk first from your roots.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
You know you grew up in Staten Island, Yes, And
was it a traditional household?
Speaker 2 (02:31):
What was it like growing up with method man as
your dad?
Speaker 4 (02:35):
So growing up, it was honestly crazy as a kid
because going to the mall like is not a regular
male experience. Like we couldn't go anywhere without somebody stopping
us for an autograph or a picture. And growing up,
I didn't really know what that meant, like why why
can't we just eat?
Speaker 2 (02:50):
Why can't we just shop?
Speaker 4 (02:51):
And then I realized going to like my dad shows
and stuff like wow, this person is more than just
my dad, Like he's like a lot of people look
up to him and a lot of people love him.
So I had to understand that growing up traditionally with him.
He's a great dad. Him and my mom they're great parents.
They raised us very well, graduated college, became a teacher,
(03:13):
stopped teaching.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
Now I do music.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Oh my god, that's amazing, fool So they've been together
thirty years.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
That is I come.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
Wow. Yeah, especially in the entertainment game. I mean, you know,
it's probably hard with your dad on the road sometimes
and stuff like that, and your mom's that true blue
you know.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
I love it.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
So I just want to talk a little bit more
about your your younger self, and I'm gonna go into
everything that you're doing now because you're.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
Making your own moves, you know.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
Obviously your dad had some records that were huge and
you were a part of that. Did you know though,
when you were little before you realized like did you
just feel like life was normal, like going out and
being out there and you were like, this is normal
and it's just who I am and what I'm doing, right,
You really didn't get it until you knew.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
No, yeah, I didn't get it.
Speaker 4 (04:00):
And a lot of like my peers who were just
kids at the time, they didn't get it either. But
I knew when like we had graduations and we did
a Halloween parade around the school, I'm like, why are.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
All the teachers like, look at my cue costumes.
Speaker 4 (04:15):
I don't know what's going on here, Yeah, but I
just had to embrace it basically because it's it's a
part of my life. It's a part of how I am,
and I love seeing how people interact with him, and
I just I want to make that same impact in myself.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
So he definitely instilled that it means when I love it.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Well, I have to tell you, I grew up with
all his music and did a lot of crazy things
to his music. We had a lot of fun, and
you know, growing up in New York, he was a
big part of the culture here. So, if not the best,
one of the best in the game. So so excited
to meet you and can't wait to see what you
have in your future. So fashion culture, talk to me.
(04:51):
What are you looking to do here? What are we
going to do to break some make some noise here? Yes.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
Also shout out to Kalia Clark, she styled me for
the longest. Shout out to Jasmine she also said me
for the longest.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
I am.
Speaker 4 (05:03):
I wouldn't say like a fashionista, but I know how
to put that stuff on. If you know what I'm saying,
you know, like I could be cute in sweatpants and
like slides, but I can also be cute like done
up yep so and then they helped me with that.
So making my own I guess mark and finding my
own brand is basically like comfortability. I like big pants,
I like small shirts.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
Yeah, it's my favorite.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
Like that's like such a good go too, because it's
like you can still look good, like even like a
big sweatpants and like a crop top two.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
I love that. Yeah, Oh my god, Yeah, every single day.
I love oh me too. To work, I do it.
I can't fo I do. I kind of do.
Speaker 3 (05:39):
But there's a point in time where I had to not.
But now I think we've kind of loostened up the
roles a little bit.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
Yeah, we had to.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
She wasn't listening, So that's just what happens. So what
is it like creating your own path?
Speaker 4 (05:50):
Now?
Speaker 1 (05:51):
I see you bring your team out here, you're creating content,
And what's it been like, what's the journey like?
Speaker 2 (05:56):
It's been honestly amazing.
Speaker 4 (05:57):
It's been a year and a half now since I
oh amost, a year and a half since I released
my first single, probably two years since we've been in
the studio, and it's just been like a whirlwind of emotions.
I've been places I never thought I would be in
such a small amount of time, and it's just like wow.
And I didn't have to use my dad's name to
put my foot into any of those doors. It's like
(06:18):
that's my own foot. Yeah, that's my shoe over there.
Like it feels really good, and like people embrace me
and they know my songs, and I have people who
actually follow me from Italy and Europe, and I'm.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
Like, that's so cool. Teacher.
Speaker 4 (06:32):
Yeah, the only people that look up to me were
the students, and yeah, have like actual people looking up
to me. So it's just I got goosebumps. Like it's
just it feels so good.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
So when did you know you wanted to do music
all your life? Or was there a point when you
were doing teaching and you were like this is just
not what I meant to be doing.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
I kind of dibbled and dabbled my whole life. Okay.
Speaker 4 (06:51):
A very fond memory that I have is Wednesdays. Applebee's
used to do karaoke and I used to go up
there almost every Wednesday and singer SHANCEI and you know,
they would clap for me because I was a little girl.
But I would never try that right now, you could
crush it.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Hit to be you know.
Speaker 4 (07:09):
But yeah, I've just been musically inclined my whole life.
Me and my brothers we used to make music videos,
like mimicking other people like g Unit and like making
the band.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
And stuff like that.
Speaker 4 (07:20):
So I've dibbled and dabbled, but professionally like my cousin's
kind of started it. My brother started it, and then
I'm kind of like, let me, let me have.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
A little piece.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
Yeah yeah, yeah, and how you like in the spotlight,
because I know music is different, right, creating and putting
your heart and soul into a project, but then getting
out there is another piece, right.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
Yeah, yeah, I don't. I honestly don't mind it. I'm lying.
Speaker 4 (07:42):
I I'm anxious. I'm an anxious person. I get anxious
all the time. But when that microphone is in my
hand and I'm doing interviews or I'm doing performing, I
don't see any like I'm I don't know anything until
I get off the stage.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
I love it.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
That's probably like the best mindset, honestly, just like kind
of like blackout when you're up there and then you
get off, You're like, oh my god, everyone's cheering.
Speaker 4 (08:03):
There was a point my last performance where I watched
the video and I can see myself kind of like
like come back to myself, like huh yeah, and then
I snap back into the performance.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
It's like, wow, like I really do that. That's so cool.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
How does your mom feel about it? Because I know
she's been dealing with it with your dad and now
she's like, oh.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Boy, my girl's going forward too. My mom is one
of my biggest supports.
Speaker 4 (08:24):
My family are like my biggest support system, but my mom,
she's my mamager. She couldn't make it today, but if not,
she would have been here. She's one hundred percent down
for everything that I do. She's in the studio with
me all the time. You know, she doesn't like a line,
she's like, no, maybe not try something else. But she's heavy,
heavy in my life, heavy in my career. So I'm
(08:45):
very grateful for her.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
Oh that's amazing. I love that.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
You know.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
Moms are important. Oh yeah, so important.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
They like help you with everything, and thank god you
have that support and someone who's been in the game
for a long and has so much knowledge. Yeah, it's
you know, like you said, you're making your own footprint,
and that's a beautiful, beautiful thing. But it's so great
to have the experience of your family and their past
so that they can guide you in a great way
as well.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
You know. So, what do you see for the future?
I want to know more? Dropping another single? What's what's
going on? Singles?
Speaker 4 (09:16):
We're trying to do something EP mixtape album ish, I'm
not sure what to call it yet.
Speaker 2 (09:22):

Speaker 4 (09:23):
I'm going to be in the last episode of season
one of the Red Hook.
Speaker 2 (09:27):

out to Elijah Bullock. I'm just trying to do everything.
I want to be on talk shows. I want to
have my own talk show. Yes girl, Yes, So I'm
just trying to do everything.
Speaker 3 (09:43):
Wow, that's so fun. What was that like filming? Like
being an actor, like going from the singing world?
Speaker 2 (09:47):
What was that like?
Speaker 4 (09:48):
Well, usually my dad is also influential in my act
career as well, because he's well esteemed.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
So when he does his.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
Auditions and stuff, I'm actually the one that's reading feeding
him the lines behind the camp.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
So for a long a long time I.
Speaker 4 (10:02):
Was feeding him the line, so I'm like, Okay, I
can do this, and then getting my own script is like, hey,
remember I helped.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
You all those times.
Speaker 4 (10:10):
You want to you don't give me some tips or something.
So in doing that, it just it feels good. It's
like another blackout moment. It's like I'm in this. And
shout out to John Arrington and David quanonas they are
the director and producer of Red Hook series. They were
surprised with me coming in there and knowing all my lines.
They were like, do you need the script? No, I'm ready.
(10:31):
Nobody talk to me because I'm faith. I'm faith right now.
I'm not even shy.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Please, that's amazing on it And it's just something about me.
Speaker 4 (10:39):
I have to put one million percent into something I
do because I don't.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
It just feels good. It feels good to me.
Speaker 1 (10:46):
But you can tell you get in the zone and
then you turn into the person that needs to make
shit happen, and that's what it's all about.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
You can tell you like love it the way you
talk about it, like you can just tell you're meant
to be doing.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
Yes, I do, honestly.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
So if you had to pick one, what would be
your favorite fashion, music or content creation.
Speaker 4 (11:04):
It's hard acting. I had to pick one for me
to do forever. Yeah, like the other one's.
Speaker 1 (11:12):

I was saying music on it. I can't live without
music riding in the car. I can't do dead silence
yeah or something right.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
Then you got to turn down the music a little bit.
Just make sure your cars are making a noise.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
How many tires you pop? I don't want to incriminate.
Speaker 3 (11:48):

specifically with kids.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
So like, I'm a big advocate.
Speaker 4 (12:20):
I always say for high schoolers going into college because
I was like first generation, not first generation, my cousin
went to college, but I was first generation in my
household to go to college and there was a lot
of stuff I didn't know. And I know there are
other people out there like that that need that guidance
that don't have it because their family has no knowledge
of that. So I want to be that person. I
want to be the advocate. So definitely travel the world.

tell me about your single. Where'd you get the inspiration?
Hair and nails? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (13:20):
And your nails look so good, Like I love them.
They're so different and unique but so classy and collected.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
Thank you? Do you want to know what trick? Yeah?
They're press Are you kidding?
Speaker 5 (13:30):
Okay?
Speaker 3 (13:30):
Because I discovered press on like a few months ago,
like how powerful they actually are? Like for a long time,
I was like if they don't work, like once you
figure it out? Like are you ten dollars?
Speaker 2 (13:38):
Are you kidding? Yeah? Are you kiddings? Twenty twenty? In
all my videos you'll see me all my nails have
been pressed on. Wow. Wow, I keep glue. Yeah, and
I the girl. They look so good. I can't even
believe it. Game has got so good.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
And you know what's good about the press ons too,
Like you know, they're perfect, like every single one, like
not one now it's going to be like a little
bit longer.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
Yeah, that's a good thought. I never know what about
it like that. Sometimes I look at my nails and
got one left, you know what I'm saying?
Speaker 3 (14:10):
One breaks in half. That's my bad thing. My nails
are always breaking. I like I wait too long then
they break in half and then my fingers are liting.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Right now from the back. I slammed it in the
door of the way. Oh the worst I've been pain
all day. And it would be so to press on
all the ladies know the pain of jamming. That is
like literally the worst.
Speaker 4 (14:30):
Oh I know, but hair, and like I call it
my feel good anthem, Like, yeah, I like to get
my hair done.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
I like to get my nails done.
Speaker 4 (14:36):
I know as ladies we like to do that, so
I for me, I just wanted even nails. Older people,
younger people, kids, everybody wants to feel good about themselves.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
What's to look good?
Speaker 4 (14:48):
You look good, you get your hair done, you get
your nails done, and you just be yourself, pop your
stuff and you just go on about your day. And
basically it's like, just stay authentic to yourself, get your
hair and nails done, do what you have to do,
but stay true.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
Yeah you know, I feel like you could do a
collab with so many women with that song and do features,
and I just love that it will be your top collab.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
I know.
Speaker 4 (15:21):
I always go I listened to like older nineties music,
so I always go, like that's true, Come on, hair
and nails honestly Trina, Because Trina, she brought me out.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
She was my first ever performance.
Speaker 4 (15:37):
I mentioned her name in the song and she loved it.
So she flew me to Detroit and I performed it.
She brot me on her set, So I would love
to hear her on this.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
Maybe we'll say maybe that'd be so good. I love it.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
Oh my god, I'm smiling so hard. Let's make it
happen and we'll feature it all over the place. Come on, now,
what's something that you want to tell the public that
you've never shared before.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
Oh? I know it's a tough one.
Speaker 3 (16:09):
Giving out secrets.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
I like to be the you know, the breaker I
never said before. Hmmm, let's see. I'm not sure you
could go with something. So do you have siblings?
Speaker 1 (16:29):
I do, all right, I mean you could tell me
like you kicked one of their s's or something, you know.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
Okay, I do have a story. That's actually so, there's
always a siblings story. And my brother and I were fighting. Yeah,
I'm my older brother. Now we get along, Like, you
have to go through that.
Speaker 4 (16:48):
You have to go that face that we were fighting
and I called him a bad word. I don't know
if I can say it on here. It starts with
the C, it's with an R. It's had two words,
but you can put it together. It's like chicken and
then like lollipop, if you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (17:04):
So I called him that and.
Speaker 4 (17:05):
He told my dad and my dad was like, where
did you hear that word? And for the life of me,
I'm like, where did I hear that word? Because yeah
that months later I found out it was from an
interview that my dad had did with carat Top.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (17:20):
So he sat me down and he was like, you're
gonna write I will not say chicken lollipop a thousand times.

and I never said that word again.

his daughter.

Speaker 4 (19:53):
I have to be I can't. My first time writing
in the studio was literally like last month. I'm usually
at home by myself door locked in the dark. I
can't have light for whatever reason, and I do that
every art.
Speaker 3 (20:06):
Every artist is different, you know, you know this.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
Is just get you in the mood.
Speaker 4 (20:09):
I think, so, I think because I'm like slight adhd
and like any little thing distracts me.
Speaker 2 (20:15):
So it's like if I have to write I'm in
I'm in my phone.
Speaker 5 (20:18):
The choir girl.
Speaker 4 (20:21):
So it's a little difficult, but yeah, I just I
do that and then the beat will come to me.
Shout out to Jay Book, shout out to Amadayis they've
sent me like amazing beats for me? Is like the
part of this song. Do I want to start with
the hook or do I want to start with like
it has to be a banging, open sentence, like you
have to draw attention.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
I learned that from college too, you know, opening sentences
talk to me schoolers, Okay, but yeah, and then I
just go from there.
Speaker 4 (20:50):
Whether the beat is like they have like sad beats
or what they call it, like pain beats, so you know,
like you're gonna go the sad route or like the
lovey dovey root, and then you know, like by sound,
if it's like a upbeat club beat, it's like, Okay,
so if I'm in the club, like when I'm doing
the club, Okay, let me talk about a drink I'm getting.
Let me talk about how good I look. My girls

real life because I'm.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
Trying to be as authentic as possible. I love that.
Speaker 3 (21:18):

have made music. Like I don't think you guys realized,
Like how like much of a skill that is? Like
I wish I could just like start singing like anytime,
Like I feel like I'd have so much more fun
singing in the car.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
Factually was good at it.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
Like the way we started this out was because she's
my niece and I'm her So I started this and
I sang for a long time. I recorded like five
hundred songs in my life, but I don't sing as
much anymore.
Speaker 2 (21:42):

But there's just so many, so many people who have
been a great influencer in your life other than your
father and your mother and your siblings. Who are some
of your top influences family wise?
Speaker 4 (22:40):
When we go family wise, industry, okay, family wise, I
have a lot of strong, powerful, resilient, gorgeous, beautiful, intelligent
women in my family. Shout out to all of them,
all of my bonus aunts and cousins and everybody that's there.
They have inspired me to be the women that I
am today. Love them. As far as as celebrity influences,
(23:02):
like I said, I'm very nineties. I was born in
ninety seven, but if I had the choice, I probably
would have been born in like ninety two.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
You know, get the best of everything, girl.
Speaker 1 (23:11):
I was born in eighty four, and in my prime,
your dad's music was like high school him. You know,
everybody from New York was was. I mean, I love
DMX so much too, Oh my god, it love.
Speaker 4 (23:23):
I put that into the perspective of like my like
you said, for you, it was like mid nineties. For
me was like early two thousands, so it was like
g Unit and like j Lo and j and yeah,
oh my goodness.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (23:34):
So I look up to honestly all of the also
women artists who have come before me. A lot of
like the I always say, like Queen Latifa's but I
always like to give Little Mama her flowers because lips
like we still sing oh yeah, oh yeah, she's still
out there.
Speaker 2 (23:48):
Yeo, man, I love Little Mama. She's great.
Speaker 4 (23:51):
I definitely take a lot of inspiration from them, Raven Simone,
Kicky Palmer.
Speaker 2 (23:55):
Like a lot of the top heavy hitters. Yeah, oh yeah, absolutely,
Oh my god, it me too. So to cal I
have to tell you, I bumped that in my car
all day.
Speaker 1 (24:05):
Me too. Oh I just remember, Oh my god, the
best song ever. So tell me what it was like
growing up and when that song dropped.
Speaker 4 (24:12):
Oh my gosh, that song, that album. My brother, he's
on My Little Brother. He's on the cover of to
Call the Prequel and then us we are. We have
a skit on to Call the Prequel, and I believe
at a later time, but just being there, that was
my first time in a studio for real, because we
had to record the skit and you can hear us
like giggling and laughing and just being little kids. But
(24:33):
that album is a soundtrack to my childhood. Like I
still listen to the songs and I'm like, oh, I
remember where I was, or like just a fond memory
of living in the house that we lived in and
just seeing my dad like that was like he was
very business y, like very business ye. And we went
to Death Jam. We visited Death Jam, and my brain.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
Is telling me jay Z was there. I know my
brain is.
Speaker 4 (24:57):
Not fooling me, but I know I was too young,
but I know for a fact DMX was there because
I'll never forget he had this or or like I'm scared, yes,
like very just he was in a dark did no.
I felt like that. Yeah, being a little girl, I'm like,
he's in a dark room with all these guys, like
what is going on? But my dad, like my dad,
(25:19):
everybody loves. He's such a good guy. He's friends with
a lot of people. And just growing up and being
around people like and being able to have those opportunities
going backstage at show, seeing other celebrities, seeing other Wu
Tang members, and even the children of the Wu Tang
members who are my cousins. So just growing up like that,
(25:41):
it's just been one of a kind experience.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
You know, I know every word to every single song
on Wu Tang and every single one of your dad's.
It's I mean, they're seeing me down. I have like
a Mazda m X three and I'm pumping this song.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
I have all the windows down, the radios and go
up anymore, and you know, I can see it. I
can see it in New York.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
You know. It was great, and I don't know it
just that time in life was my favorite time, and
it was when hip hop really took a rise.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
Right before that, it wasn't really like that.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
R and B was out a little bit, but your
dad was a big part of making hip hop what
it is today.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
I agree how the.
Speaker 4 (26:19):
Hit her, he has that sound that's like very distinct,
which is how I knew it was him on massd Singer.
He tried to fool me, but he has very distinct
ways he breathes and just the words that he says
on a regular basis on songs and at home, it's like, bro, like,
come on, if nobody knows you, I know that voice.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
What is he like at home versus in the public.
Speaker 4 (26:43):
Oh, he's the same person, same magic tricks, dancing, singing, laughing, joking.
He loves to joke about people because he comes from
a good place. So it's not like he's like being
malicious or anything. Like they call it snapping, so he
loves to snap on people. He loves to, you know,
just be fun dad, brad dad, cool dad.
Speaker 2 (27:02):
And your friends m m hm. Is he the dad?
I don't know if he's the dad.
Speaker 4 (27:08):
Because when my friends come off, he's like, all right,
I don't know what y'all talking about. I'm not involved
and nothing going on here. But he's he's really cool.
He's cool.
Speaker 2 (27:18):
They know him as just like this tall guy, he's
just there. And the method man, Oh, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (27:25):
I think something about a method to his madness and
method with someone.
Speaker 2 (27:29):
With drugs and some stuff. Don't know what to do
with me.
Speaker 1 (27:33):
Hey, listen, they that back in that day, that's all
it was about. Now it's not cool, sex, drugs, rock
and roll. That time was just crazy, right. How did
your dad shelter you and your family from all that
craziness when he was out there in the streets but
making big.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
Moves you know?
Speaker 4 (27:54):
Well he he he still doesn't really I'm not gonna
say aloud, but doesn't recommend I go to Wu Tang
shows simply because it's a lot of members, and those
members bring their members and members and members and families
and it ends up being a million people backstage, and
my dad is very like, I need my eyes on you,
and I can't when it's too much going on. Yeah,
So very rarely do I go to a Wu Tang show.
(28:14):
So I feel like that's where the sheltering comes in.
But if it's just like a him and Redman show
where it's just the two of them, it's very family oriented,
very like smaller groups.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
So it's like it's better. That's so interesting.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
Yeah, oh my god, I love red Man. Oh oh
my god, you guys are amazing. For real, what is
a show like? You know, I've been to a Wu
Tang show man. Oh god, help me, I don't remember
it much.
Speaker 2 (28:44):
She has a ticket. But what was it like? From
your lens?
Speaker 4 (28:49):
The most recent Wu Tank show I've I've been to
was the New York State of Mind Tour.
Speaker 2 (28:54):
I went in New York and I went in la
and la.
Speaker 4 (28:58):
Like the Hollywood Bowl was sold out and like the
way they did the performances, it's a lot of members,
so they all came out, they did their singles. But
when my dad came out, I'm biased, of course. When
my dad came out, like I just stopped and I
was just like listening, like like this is for my
(29:19):
Like it's so weird.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
Yeah, it's a weird feeling.
Speaker 4 (29:22):
And it's just like that's my dad, and like these
people are going crazy for this person that I'm about
to go home and ask him if he can make
me some lasagna. So I don't he's a good cook too,
Oh my goodness, the best.
Speaker 3 (29:32):
Okay, all right, do you have a favorite thing.
Speaker 4 (29:38):
My dad used to make a lot of Italian food.
Now he's heavy in the gym doing his macro. When
I ask him, he does make good food. He makes
very very good stuff shows. Those are my favorite Italian Yes.
Speaker 2 (29:51):
We got a stuff show and you just eat. I'm
gonna send you guys.
Speaker 5 (30:00):
It was.
Speaker 1 (30:03):
Like, you know, you never put Method Man and some
stuffed shelves together, you know.
Speaker 4 (30:09):
Honestly, I got to trick him into doing like a
catering thing so people could be like, oh my god,
who made this?
Speaker 2 (30:14):
And be like, yeah, the guy, the big guy that
you guys see.
Speaker 3 (30:18):
Yeah, he makes all this sas instead of one of
those secret DoorDash shops you know from your house.
Speaker 1 (30:22):
Yeah, the last cook.
Speaker 2 (30:26):
I love that. Who's your favorite member of Wu Tang
other than Method Man? Hmm? I would say my uncle Jamal.
Speaker 4 (30:36):
Oh okay, he actually he's been to my house a
few times. They're all they all show nothing but love,
Like I called him all my uncles. But I like
vividly remember him being around, like as a kid.
Speaker 2 (30:48):
How come he's your favorite? Just the nicest or what? Honestly, Yeah,
you know, I'm.
Speaker 4 (30:57):
I'm big on like people saying hello to me, and
I just remember being a kid, and he's like when like,
you know, people don't really look at kids like yeah, yeah,
But I.
Speaker 2 (31:06):
Remember he's like really one of the ones that's like, oh, hey,
hey niece, her niece.
Speaker 4 (31:10):
Now everybody is like hey niece because I'm an adult
and stuff like that. But before, like he was the
one to really do that.
Speaker 2 (31:16):
Are they supportive in your career?
Speaker 1 (31:18):
Now?
Speaker 2 (31:18):
Oh? Absolutely? Are they all? Like I'm putting it on,
let's go.
Speaker 4 (31:21):
I even got shocked because Capa Donna followed me on
Instagram and I was like, oh, am I the chosen,
Like what.
Speaker 2 (31:30):
What is going on? Like, I honestly fell up. I
love it. That's so cool. I love well of course
you are. Come on, Oh.
Speaker 1 (31:39):
My god, I love it. I love it so much.
I just can't wait. I gotta go to another concert.
Speaker 2 (31:43):
You let me know. Yes, And when they're on tour
again or they're performing, I'm kind of going on the
last tour. Hopefully it's not the last. That's why I'm
doing that. It's not gonna be the last. It can't be.
Speaker 1 (31:52):
They're too young to stop this.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
Come on, man's iconic. We'll go just in case though,
And I'm gonna go to the next one.
Speaker 1 (32:01):
Yes, I wanna get WU tank shirts. We should have
got WU Tang shirts.
Speaker 2 (32:04):
You know, I don't know what we were thinking. I
know I had one. That's what I wore the last concert.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
I'm gonna get another one. I was just wanting to
ask one more question. What's been your most iconic moment? Ooh,
I know that's a tough one.
Speaker 4 (32:19):
There are a couple, but the one night Key's popping
in my head was being Okay. There was a weekend
that I had shout out to Glass Entertainment Studios. They
shot Family Legacy Season two for US, which is streaming

of celebrities and I'm walking down the red cop and
I'm doing interviews.

I'm like, I was just watching this on TV.
Speaker 4 (33:12):

five years ago, I would have never thought to see
myself there.

Speaker 1 (33:25):
It's like she grew up in this and she still
feels I know these moments that everybody feels when they're

Speaker 1 (02:27):
You know you grew up in Staten Island, Yes, And
was it a traditional household?
Speaker 2 (02:31):
What was it like growing up with method man as
your dad?
Speaker 4 (02:35):
So growing up, it was honestly crazy as a kid
because going to the mall like is not a regular
male experience. Like we couldn't go anywhere without somebody stopping
us for an autograph or a picture. And growing up,
I didn't really know what that meant, like why why
can't we just eat?
Speaker 2 (02:50):
Why can't we just shop?
Speaker 4 (02:51):
And then I realized going to like my dad shows
and stuff like wow, this person is more than just
my dad, Like he's like a lot of people look
up to him and a lot of people love him.
So I had to understand that growing up traditionally with him.
He's a great dad. Him and my mom they're great parents.
They raised us very well, graduated college, became a teacher,
(03:13):
stopped teaching.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
Now I do music.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Oh my god, that's amazing, fool So they've been together
thirty years.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
That is I come.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
Wow. Yeah, especially in the entertainment game. I mean, you know,
it's probably hard with your dad on the road sometimes
and stuff like that, and your mom's that true blue
you know.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
I love it.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
So I just want to talk a little bit more
about your your younger self, and I'm gonna go into
everything that you're doing now because you're.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
Making your own moves, you know.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
Obviously your dad had some records that were huge and
you were a part of that. Did you know though,
when you were little before you realized like did you
just feel like life was normal, like going out and
being out there and you were like, this is normal
and it's just who I am and what I'm doing, right,
You really didn't get it until you knew.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
No, yeah, I didn't get it.
Speaker 4 (04:00):
And a lot of like my peers who were just
kids at the time, they didn't get it either. But
I knew when like we had graduations and we did
a Halloween parade around the school, I'm like, why are.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
All the teachers like, look at my cue costumes.
Speaker 4 (04:15):
I don't know what's going on here, Yeah, but I
just had to embrace it basically because it's it's a
part of my life. It's a part of how I am,
and I love seeing how people interact with him, and
I just I want to make that same impact in myself.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
So he definitely instilled that it means when I love it.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Well, I have to tell you, I grew up with
all his music and did a lot of crazy things
to his music. We had a lot of fun, and
you know, growing up in New York, he was a
big part of the culture here. So, if not the best,
one of the best in the game. So so excited
to meet you and can't wait to see what you
have in your future. So fashion culture, talk to me.
(04:51):
What are you looking to do here? What are we
going to do to break some make some noise here? Yes.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
Also shout out to Kalia Clark, she styled me for
the longest. Shout out to Jasmine she also said me
for the longest.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
I am.
Speaker 4 (05:03):
I wouldn't say like a fashionista, but I know how
to put that stuff on. If you know what I'm saying,
you know, like I could be cute in sweatpants and
like slides, but I can also be cute like done
up yep so and then they helped me with that.
So making my own I guess mark and finding my
own brand is basically like comfortability. I like big pants,
I like small shirts.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
Yeah, it's my favorite.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
Like that's like such a good go too, because it's
like you can still look good, like even like a
big sweatpants and like a crop top two.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
I love that. Yeah, Oh my god, Yeah, every single day.
I love oh me too. To work, I do it.
I can't fo I do. I kind of do.
Speaker 3 (05:39):
But there's a point in time where I had to not.
But now I think we've kind of loostened up the
roles a little bit.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
Yeah, we had to.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
She wasn't listening, So that's just what happens. So what
is it like creating your own path?
Speaker 4 (05:50):
Now?
Speaker 1 (05:51):
I see you bring your team out here, you're creating content,
And what's it been like, what's the journey like?
Speaker 2 (05:56):
It's been honestly amazing.
Speaker 4 (05:57):
It's been a year and a half now since I
oh amost, a year and a half since I released
my first single, probably two years since we've been in
the studio, and it's just been like a whirlwind of emotions.
I've been places I never thought I would be in
such a small amount of time, and it's just like wow.
And I didn't have to use my dad's name to
put my foot into any of those doors. It's like
(06:18):
that's my own foot. Yeah, that's my shoe over there.
Like it feels really good, and like people embrace me
and they know my songs, and I have people who
actually follow me from Italy and Europe, and I'm.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
Like, that's so cool. Teacher.
Speaker 4 (06:32):
Yeah, the only people that look up to me were
the students, and yeah, have like actual people looking up
to me. So it's just I got goosebumps. Like it's
just it feels so good.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
So when did you know you wanted to do music
all your life? Or was there a point when you
were doing teaching and you were like this is just
not what I meant to be doing.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
I kind of dibbled and dabbled my whole life. Okay.
Speaker 4 (06:51):
A very fond memory that I have is Wednesdays. Applebee's
used to do karaoke and I used to go up
there almost every Wednesday and singer SHANCEI and you know,
they would clap for me because I was a little girl.
But I would never try that right now, you could
crush it.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Hit to be you know.
Speaker 4 (07:09):
But yeah, I've just been musically inclined my whole life.
Me and my brothers we used to make music videos,
like mimicking other people like g Unit and like making
the band.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
And stuff like that.
Speaker 4 (07:20):
So I've dibbled and dabbled, but professionally like my cousin's
kind of started it. My brother started it, and then
I'm kind of like, let me, let me have.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
A little piece.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
Yeah yeah, yeah, and how you like in the spotlight,
because I know music is different, right, creating and putting
your heart and soul into a project, but then getting
out there is another piece, right.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
Yeah, yeah, I don't. I honestly don't mind it. I'm lying.
Speaker 4 (07:42):
I I'm anxious. I'm an anxious person. I get anxious
all the time. But when that microphone is in my
hand and I'm doing interviews or I'm doing performing, I
don't see any like I'm I don't know anything until
I get off the stage.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
I love it.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
That's probably like the best mindset, honestly, just like kind
of like blackout when you're up there and then you
get off, You're like, oh my god, everyone's cheering.
Speaker 4 (08:03):
There was a point my last performance where I watched
the video and I can see myself kind of like
like come back to myself, like huh yeah, and then
I snap back into the performance.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
It's like, wow, like I really do that. That's so cool.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
How does your mom feel about it? Because I know
she's been dealing with it with your dad and now
she's like, oh.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Boy, my girl's going forward too. My mom is one
of my biggest supports.
Speaker 4 (08:24):
My family are like my biggest support system, but my mom,
she's my mamager. She couldn't make it today, but if not,
she would have been here. She's one hundred percent down
for everything that I do. She's in the studio with
me all the time. You know, she doesn't like a line,
she's like, no, maybe not try something else. But she's heavy,
heavy in my life, heavy in my career. So I'm
(08:45):
very grateful for her.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
Oh that's amazing. I love that.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
You know.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
Moms are important. Oh yeah, so important.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
They like help you with everything, and thank god you
have that support and someone who's been in the game
for a long and has so much knowledge. Yeah, it's
you know, like you said, you're making your own footprint,
and that's a beautiful, beautiful thing. But it's so great
to have the experience of your family and their past
so that they can guide you in a great way
as well.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
You know. So, what do you see for the future?
I want to know more? Dropping another single? What's what's
going on? Singles?
Speaker 4 (09:16):
We're trying to do something EP mixtape album ish, I'm
not sure what to call it yet.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
Definitely acting.
Speaker 4 (09:23):
I'm going to be in the last episode of season
one of the Red Hook.
Speaker 2 (09:27):

I want to be on talk shows. I want to
have my own talk show. Yes girl, Yes, So I'm
just trying to do everything.
Speaker 3 (09:43):
Wow, that's so fun. What was that like filming? Like
being an actor, like going from the singing world?
Speaker 2 (09:47):
What was that like?
Speaker 4 (09:48):
Well, usually my dad is also influential in my act
career as well, because he's well esteemed.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
So when he does his.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
Auditions and stuff, I'm actually the one that's reading feeding
him the lines behind the camp.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
So for a long a long time I.
Speaker 4 (10:02):
Was feeding him the line, so I'm like, Okay, I
can do this, and then getting my own script is like, hey,
remember I helped.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
You all those times.
Speaker 4 (10:10):
You want to you don't give me some tips or something.
So in doing that, it just it feels good. It's
like another blackout moment. It's like I'm in this. And
shout out to John Arrington and David quanonas they are
the director and producer of Red Hook series. They were
surprised with me coming in there and knowing all my lines.
They were like, do you need the script? No, I'm ready.
(10:31):
Nobody talk to me because I'm faith. I'm faith right now.
I'm not even shy.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Please, that's amazing on it And it's just something about me.
Speaker 4 (10:39):
I have to put one million percent into something I
do because I don't.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
It just feels good. It feels good to me.
Speaker 1 (10:46):
But you can tell you get in the zone and
then you turn into the person that needs to make
shit happen, and that's what it's all about.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
You can tell you like love it the way you
talk about it, like you can just tell you're meant
to be doing.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
Yes, I do, honestly.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
So if you had to pick one, what would be
your favorite fashion, music or content creation.
Speaker 4 (11:04):
It's hard acting. I had to pick one for me
to do forever. Yeah, like the other one's.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
Away multi dimensional.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
Music acting. I mean sweatpants count is fashion? Are we
still sweatpants? And I think you do it during anything?
Speaker 3 (11:30):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (11:30):
That's fine, that's fine. That could go, that could go.
I was saying music on it. I can't live without
music riding in the car. I can't do dead silence
yeah or something right.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
Then you got to turn down the music a little bit.
Just make sure your cars are making a noise.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
How many tires you pop? I don't want to incriminate.
Speaker 3 (11:48):
Yeah, no, she incriminates me every time. Oh like my god, like,
oh my god, Parker Mechanical, shout out to them because
they're saving me every time I hit my tire and

Because I know you know, opportunities come right, these auditions
may come your singles.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
You're like, okay, I'm guiding my own career.
Speaker 4 (12:11):
What lights you up probably traveling the world, making an impact,
specifically with kids.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
So like, I'm a big advocate.
Speaker 4 (12:20):
I always say for high schoolers going into college because
I was like first generation, not first generation, my cousin
went to college, but I was first generation in my
household to go to college and there was a lot
of stuff I didn't know. And I know there are
other people out there like that that need that guidance
that don't have it because their family has no knowledge
of that. So I want to be that person. I
want to be the advocate. So definitely travel the world.
(12:41):
I know they look it for me in Italy. So
that's so nice. You're like the big sister to everyone
I want to know exactly.

Hair and nails? Yeah?

They're so different and unique but so classy and collected.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
Thank you? Do you want to know what trick? Yeah?
They're press Are you kidding?
Speaker 5 (13:30):
Okay?
Speaker 3 (13:30):

like how powerful they actually are? Like for a long time,
I was like if they don't work, like once you
figure it out? Like are you ten dollars?
Speaker 2 (13:38):
Are you kidding? Yeah? Are you kiddings? Twenty twenty? In
all my videos you'll see me all my nails have
been pressed on. Wow. Wow, I keep glue. Yeah, and
I the girl. They look so good. I can't even
believe it. Game has got so good.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
And you know what's good about the press ons too,
Like you know, they're perfect, like every single one, like
not one now it's going to be like a little
bit longer.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
Yeah, that's a good thought. I never know what about
it like that. Sometimes I look at my nails and
got one left, you know what I'm saying?
Speaker 3 (14:10):
One breaks in half. That's my bad thing. My nails
are always breaking. I like I wait too long then
they break in half and then my fingers are liting.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Right now from the back. I slammed it in the
door of the way. Oh the worst I've been pain
all day. And it would be so to press on
all the ladies know the pain of jamming. That is
like literally the worst.
Speaker 4 (14:30):
Oh I know, but hair, and like I call it
my feel good anthem, Like, yeah, I like to get
my hair done.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
I like to get my nails done.
Speaker 4 (14:36):
I know as ladies we like to do that, so
I for me, I just wanted even nails. Older people,
younger people, kids, everybody wants to feel good about themselves.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
What's to look good?
Speaker 4 (14:48):
You look good, you get your hair done, you get
your nails done, and you just be yourself, pop your
stuff and you just go on about your day. And
basically it's like, just stay authentic to yourself, get your
hair and nails done, do what you have to do,
but stay true.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
Yeah you know, I feel like you could do a
collab with so many women with that song and do features,
and I just love that it will be your top collab.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
I know.
Speaker 4 (15:21):
I always go I listened to like older nineties music,
so I always go, like that's true, Come on, hair
and nails honestly Trina, Because Trina, she brought me out.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
She was my first ever performance.
Speaker 4 (15:37):
I mentioned her name in the song and she loved it.
So she flew me to Detroit and I performed it.
She brot me on her set, So I would love
to hear her on this.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
Maybe we'll say maybe that'd be so good. I love it.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
Oh my god, I'm smiling so hard. Let's make it
happen and we'll feature it all over the place. Come on, now,
what's something that you want to tell the public that
you've never shared before.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
Oh? I know it's a tough one.
Speaker 3 (16:09):
Giving out secrets.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
I like to be the you know, the breaker I
never said before. Hmmm, let's see. I'm not sure you
could go with something. So do you have siblings?
Speaker 1 (16:29):
I do, all right, I mean you could tell me
like you kicked one of their s's or something, you know.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
Okay, I do have a story. That's actually so, there's
always a siblings story. And my brother and I were fighting. Yeah,
I'm my older brother. Now we get along, Like, you
have to go through that.
Speaker 4 (16:48):
You have to go that face that we were fighting
and I called him a bad word. I don't know
if I can say it on here. It starts with
the C, it's with an R. It's had two words,
but you can put it together. It's like chicken and
then like lollipop, if you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (17:04):
So I called him that and.
Speaker 4 (17:05):
He told my dad and my dad was like, where
did you hear that word? And for the life of me,
I'm like, where did I hear that word? Because yeah
that months later I found out it was from an
interview that my dad had did with carat Top.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (17:20):
So he sat me down and he was like, you're
gonna write I will not say chicken lollipop a thousand times.
And I filled up a whole marble notebook writing that,
and I never said that word again.
Speaker 2 (17:31):
What See, she learned her lesson.
Speaker 1 (17:32):
Yeah, geez, not only a media icon, but teaching her
his daughter.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Right, that's right.
Speaker 1 (17:41):

hop don't get credit for doing that. The ones that
do it, the ones that don't, there's some, but the
ones that do. You know, you're an amazing woman. I
can tell.

Speaker 2 (22:09):
He's awesome, Diesel. We love you.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
Come New York next month, so you guys will have
to hook you. He's got great beats. I might do
a song with him too, maybe, hey, maybe laugh on that.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
Let's go girl. Oh that would be so sick.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
I'm so serious.
Speaker 2 (22:25):
That'd be awesome. You never know, so I'll introduce it
to him.
Speaker 1 (22:29):
But there's just so many, so many people who have
been a great influencer in your life other than your
father and your mother and your siblings. Who are some
of your top influences family wise?
Speaker 4 (22:40):
When we go family wise, industry, okay, family wise, I
have a lot of strong, powerful, resilient, gorgeous, beautiful, intelligent
women in my family. Shout out to all of them,
all of my bonus aunts and cousins and everybody that's there.
They have inspired me to be the women that I
am today. Love them. As far as as celebrity influences,
(23:02):
like I said, I'm very nineties. I was born in
ninety seven, but if I had the choice, I probably
would have been born in like ninety two.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
You know, get the best of everything, girl.
Speaker 1 (23:11):
I was born in eighty four, and in my prime,
your dad's music was like high school him. You know,
everybody from New York was was. I mean, I love
DMX so much too, Oh my god, it love.
Speaker 4 (23:23):
I put that into the perspective of like my like
you said, for you, it was like mid nineties. For
me was like early two thousands, so it was like
g Unit and like j Lo and j and yeah,
oh my goodness.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (23:34):
So I look up to honestly all of the also
women artists who have come before me. A lot of
like the I always say, like Queen Latifa's but I
always like to give Little Mama her flowers because lips
like we still sing oh yeah, oh yeah, she's still
out there.
Speaker 2 (23:48):
Yeo, man, I love Little Mama. She's great.
Speaker 4 (23:51):
I definitely take a lot of inspiration from them, Raven Simone,
Kicky Palmer.
Speaker 2 (23:55):
Like a lot of the top heavy hitters. Yeah, oh yeah, absolutely,
Oh my god, it me too. So to cal I
have to tell you, I bumped that in my car
all day.
Speaker 1 (24:05):
Me too. Oh I just remember, Oh my god, the
best song ever. So tell me what it was like
growing up and when that song dropped.
Speaker 4 (24:12):
Oh my gosh, that song, that album. My brother, he's
on My Little Brother. He's on the cover of to
Call the Prequel and then us we are. We have
a skit on to Call the Prequel, and I believe
at a later time, but just being there, that was
my first time in a studio for real, because we
had to record the skit and you can hear us
like giggling and laughing and just being little kids. But
(24:33):
that album is a soundtrack to my childhood. Like I
still listen to the songs and I'm like, oh, I
remember where I was, or like just a fond memory
of living in the house that we lived in and
just seeing my dad like that was like he was
very business y, like very business ye. And we went
to Death Jam. We visited Death Jam, and my brain.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
Is telling me jay Z was there. I know my
brain is.
Speaker 4 (24:57):
Not fooling me, but I know I was too young,
but I know for a fact DMX was there because
I'll never forget he had this or or like I'm scared, yes,
like very just he was in a dark did no.
I felt like that. Yeah, being a little girl, I'm like,
he's in a dark room with all these guys, like
what is going on? But my dad, like my dad,
(25:19):
everybody loves. He's such a good guy. He's friends with
a lot of people. And just growing up and being
around people like and being able to have those opportunities
going backstage at show, seeing other celebrities, seeing other Wu
Tang members, and even the children of the Wu Tang
members who are my cousins. So just growing up like that,
(25:41):
it's just been one of a kind experience.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
You know, I know every word to every single song
on Wu Tang and every single one of your dad's.
It's I mean, they're seeing me down. I have like
a Mazda m X three and I'm pumping this song.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
I have all the windows down, the radios and go
up anymore, and you know, I can see it. I
can see it in New York.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
You know. It was great, and I don't know it
just that time in life was my favorite time, and
it was when hip hop really took a rise.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
Right before that, it wasn't really like that.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
R and B was out a little bit, but your
dad was a big part of making hip hop what
it is today.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
I agree how the.
Speaker 4 (26:19):
Hit her, he has that sound that's like very distinct,
which is how I knew it was him on massd Singer.
He tried to fool me, but he has very distinct
ways he breathes and just the words that he says
on a regular basis on songs and at home, it's like, bro, like,
come on, if nobody knows you, I know that voice.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
What is he like at home versus in the public.
Speaker 4 (26:43):
Oh, he's the same person, same magic tricks, dancing, singing, laughing, joking.
He loves to joke about people because he comes from
a good place. So it's not like he's like being
malicious or anything. Like they call it snapping, so he
loves to snap on people. He loves to, you know,
just be fun dad, brad dad, cool dad.
Speaker 2 (27:02):
And your friends m m hm. Is he the dad?
I don't know if he's the dad.
Speaker 4 (27:08):
Because when my friends come off, he's like, all right,
I don't know what y'all talking about. I'm not involved
and nothing going on here. But he's he's really cool.
He's cool.
Speaker 2 (27:18):
They know him as just like this tall guy, he's
just there. And the method man, Oh, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (27:25):
I think something about a method to his madness and
method with someone.
Speaker 2 (27:29):
With drugs and some stuff. Don't know what to do
with me.
Speaker 1 (27:33):
Hey, listen, they that back in that day, that's all
it was about. Now it's not cool, sex, drugs, rock
and roll. That time was just crazy, right. How did
your dad shelter you and your family from all that
craziness when he was out there in the streets but
making big.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
Moves you know?
Speaker 4 (27:54):
Well he he he still doesn't really I'm not gonna
say aloud, but doesn't recommend I go to Wu Tang
shows simply because it's a lot of members, and those
members bring their members and members and members and families
and it ends up being a million people backstage, and
my dad is very like, I need my eyes on you,
and I can't when it's too much going on. Yeah,
So very rarely do I go to a Wu Tang show.
(28:14):
So I feel like that's where the sheltering comes in.
But if it's just like a him and Redman show
where it's just the two of them, it's very family oriented,
very like smaller groups.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
So it's like it's better. That's so interesting.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
Yeah, oh my god, I love red Man. Oh oh
my god, you guys are amazing. For real, what is
a show like? You know, I've been to a Wu
Tang show man. Oh god, help me, I don't remember
it much.
Speaker 2 (28:44):
She has a ticket. But what was it like? From
your lens?
Speaker 4 (28:49):
The most recent Wu Tank show I've I've been to
was the New York State of Mind Tour.
Speaker 2 (28:54):
I went in New York and I went in la
and la.
Speaker 4 (28:58):
Like the Hollywood Bowl was sold out and like the
way they did the performances, it's a lot of members,
so they all came out, they did their singles. But
when my dad came out, I'm biased, of course. When
my dad came out, like I just stopped and I
was just like listening, like like this is for my
(29:19):
Like it's so weird.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
Yeah, it's a weird feeling.
Speaker 4 (29:22):
And it's just like that's my dad, and like these
people are going crazy for this person that I'm about
to go home and ask him if he can make
me some lasagna. So I don't he's a good cook too,
Oh my goodness, the best.
Speaker 3 (29:32):
Okay, all right, do you have a favorite thing.
Speaker 4 (29:38):
My dad used to make a lot of Italian food.
Now he's heavy in the gym doing his macro. When
I ask him, he does make good food. He makes
very very good stuff shows. Those are my favorite Italian Yes.
Speaker 2 (29:51):
We got a stuff show and you just eat. I'm
gonna send you guys.
Speaker 5 (30:00):
It was.
Speaker 1 (30:03):
Like, you know, you never put Method Man and some
stuffed shelves together, you know.
Speaker 4 (30:09):
Honestly, I got to trick him into doing like a
catering thing so people could be like, oh my god,
who made this?
Speaker 2 (30:14):
And be like, yeah, the guy, the big guy that
you guys see.
Speaker 3 (30:18):
Yeah, he makes all this sas instead of one of
those secret DoorDash shops you know from your house.
Speaker 1 (30:22):
Yeah, the last cook.
Speaker 2 (30:26):
I love that. Who's your favorite member of Wu Tang
other than Method Man? Hmm? I would say my uncle Jamal.
Speaker 4 (30:36):
Oh okay, he actually he's been to my house a
few times. They're all they all show nothing but love,
Like I called him all my uncles. But I like
vividly remember him being around, like as a kid.
Speaker 2 (30:48):
How come he's your favorite? Just the nicest or what? Honestly, Yeah,
you know, I'm.
Speaker 4 (30:57):
I'm big on like people saying hello to me, and
I just remember being a kid, and he's like when like,
you know, people don't really look at kids like yeah, yeah,
But I.
Speaker 2 (31:06):
Remember he's like really one of the ones that's like, oh, hey,
hey niece, her niece.
Speaker 4 (31:10):
Now everybody is like hey niece because I'm an adult
and stuff like that. But before, like he was the
one to really do that.
Speaker 2 (31:16):
Are they supportive in your career?
Speaker 1 (31:18):
Now?
Speaker 2 (31:18):
Oh? Absolutely? Are they all? Like I'm putting it on,
let's go.
Speaker 4 (31:21):
I even got shocked because Capa Donna followed me on
Instagram and I was like, oh, am I the chosen,

last tour. Hopefully it's not the last. That's why I'm
doing that. It's not gonna be the last. It can't be.
