So Urban Knights is consist of of.
Speaker 3 (14:39):

Ramsey being the founder, and he recruited young musicians like
Calvin Rodgers, Kevin Randolph, Scharay Reed, Maurice Fitzgerald, Joey Woolfolk.
These are gospel musicians that had come together. We can't
forget about Quinn Quinn, Quinn. What's this guy's last name?
(15:06):
His Quinn Johnson, another drummer excess. So so what did
so what Ramsey did? Of course he created a super
smooth jazz group and created a fresh pop R and
(15:31):
B sound from gospel musicians, which is pretty cool. That's
what that was. My introduction to smooth jazz was listening
to Urban Knight's Dream off their two thousand and four album.
I think Urban Knights four or five one of those albums.
(15:53):
So we want to give a good send off to
the late. We just want to say thank you to
the late Ramsey Lewis of putting together a super group
of musicians called the Urban Knights. And then we don't

the Yes, So we're gonna give a good rhyme of
applause for the Ricky Minor band and yeah, yes, Ricky
(18:26):
Ricky Minor one of the toughest bass players. But he,
like his mannerisms, is so down to earth. He cares
about what he does, but most likely he cares about
the people. He's a people person.

Speaker 10 (30:51):
Yeah, yeah, she guess she got him start in Hollywood.
Speaker 6 (30:54):
Three or four years ago.
Speaker 3 (30:56):
If I'm mistaken, h let's stay five to ten years
like that, give a five six here. I mean, yeah,
she just got her start on the Hollywood Walk of Fan.
I can't wait to go find that start. I can't
wait for that start.
Speaker 4 (31:16):
I'm pretty sure it's somewhere downtown or Hollywood Boulevard, is it.
Speaker 3 (31:22):
Yeah, that's what I'm saying. I can't wait to go
find that that that start. That's gonna be a chance
of a lifetime just to take a picture.
Speaker 4 (31:33):
There, you know right, Yeah, I got that.
Speaker 3 (31:41):
Check it out. I have the the Hollywood sign I
was able to to you know that that's that Hollywood
sign is very hard to take a picture of. You
can't take it with you can't take a picture with
your your phone unless your your angles right.
Speaker 4 (32:02):
Right now.
Speaker 3 (32:05):
If you try to take it from downtown, you can
I catch it. You can't catch it good. And me
being a photographer, me, me being a person that know
how to take some good pictures. There's a lot of
stuff that you you know, like you gotta have the
light right, air lighting, right lighting and stuff like that.
(32:29):
I was messing with somebody, matter of fact. Matter of fact,
I was at the d m V because I was
just taking a new, a new uh DMV picture. You
know how those cameras is, right, those those cameras, they
those big cameras. They that that that big light, it
(32:52):
just blooms it just like that, right, I tease. I
made a joke with the camera person. I said, look,
make sure it's four hundred speed.
Speaker 4 (33:06):
Did you get that?
Speaker 3 (33:09):
I said, make sure, I said, make sure it's for
a hundred speed, right, because but my last picture was dark.
It made me look so dark. So basically, what they did,
I will tell you what my family did. Basically, what
they did. They brought their cameras. They brought they had
their camera out there, and they basically started putting their
(33:33):
phone or some other type of lighting to make make.
Speaker 6 (33:38):
Me look a little bit better.
Speaker 3 (33:40):
Because basically that that that background. It if you don't
have the right clothes on, or if you don't have
the right setting or whatever, it's gonna make your your
your face or whatever dark. So think about that next time. Okay,
(34:03):
bright closet, bright clothes or whatever, or make sure it
does not blend in with the the the backdrop, backdrop,
it's gonna help your picture.
Speaker 4 (34:19):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (34:21):
I had him cracking up.
Speaker 4 (34:24):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 8 (34:27):
Yeah, and.
Speaker 3 (34:30):
I was. I had a great message on last week
from Pastor Kelly, the pastor of Vegas vir Church of
God in Christ. You're talking about amazing Pastor Pastor Kelly,
(34:51):
and Lady Kelly, Oh my goodness, and that message to
really touched heart. And guess what it was about adding
and subtracted, Adding, subtraction.
Speaker 6 (35:13):
Do you get that adding?
Speaker 3 (35:15):
The reason why I brought that up because for the
past two or three weeks we haven't been talking about
that adding and subtracting. Remember that, Yeah, adding people in
your life, the right people that's gonna be in your life,
that's gonna be in there for the lo lord or
either subtracting them or taking them away. Because if you've
(35:37):
put the wrong people in your your life and your lifestyle,
it can get you and put you in the wrong places.
Speaker 4 (35:47):
Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 3 (35:49):
Adding and so I was really, really, really really touched
by that message with Pastor Kelly. You're talking about you know,
if you're looking for a church home, you know, you
know bigas view of its place. I'm not just saying
(36:12):
that because I'm one of the musicians. Yes we do
have great music there, Yes you do. You do have
a great drummer there. Yes you do have a great
keyboard is there. But you know that church is really
really growing. Reason why I'm saying is really growing because
it's not just going with our color, is going with
(36:39):
all colors, all colors. Yeah, white, Hispanic, you mean it,
it was they there, they're coming. So it's it's really touching.
That's what they're really touching to me because it's very
(37:00):
encouraging to me that he's doing great things. He's not
he's not saying that he's the one that's doing this.
He's saying God is the one that's doing this.
Speaker 5 (37:13):
That's right.
Speaker 3 (37:14):
He's he's the but the shepherd. He's not saying, Okay,
this is my church. You know how you get certain
pastors and and certain leaders always say this is my church.
He said, I'm working for you. I'm working for you,
and I like stuff like that. You know when when
(37:37):
you you look, you lay everything out there on the
on the line for the ministry, not you just taking
over the ministry. That's a blessing, right right, what's good
on that?
Speaker 4 (38:00):
Go ahead? What's your input on it?
Speaker 5 (38:06):
My input? My input on.
Speaker 3 (38:09):
Just the blessing in general.
Speaker 6 (38:11):
Or repeat the question for me, like say.
Speaker 3 (38:14):
For instance, we are the church. You understand what I'm saying.
That's basically what I'm saying. We are the church, and
you have to put you have to put your yourself
as the church, not the basically you're you're you're being
in those four walls. That's basically what I'm saying. So
(38:38):
how do you see yourself or how do you see it?
See that as the church?
Speaker 5 (38:46):
So again, you don't have to physically and this is
just my opinion, you.
Speaker 3 (38:51):
Don't have to physically church.
Speaker 5 (38:55):
To receive blessing, to receive your healing. The church is
on the inside you, that's right between you and God
is what's most important. And so literally have a relationship
with God. Like say, for instance, one of my special
places that.
Speaker 3 (39:14):
I go is in my closet.
Speaker 5 (39:16):
I have an actual prayer closet that I go through
and it's my and I pray in there. I read
in there and listen to my words, my music. You know,
it's just my getaway place from everything. Because then the
word it says that we're supposed to have a secret
place anyway, right, We're supposed to, you know, to be
(39:36):
somewhere we can close the doors and just have that
one on one with God.
Speaker 3 (39:40):
So the changes on the.
Speaker 5 (39:42):
Side of us, meaning we can go out there and
do something nice for someone. God sees that we can
go and feed the homeless. I see that, you know
what I'm saying. So I just feel like I personally
love going to church. I'm not gonna lie loved going
because they give hugs. No, for real, I genuinely I'm
(40:09):
the one that walks through the doors, and the ladies
that are standing there, the God that standing there, they
give hugs. I husband back.
Speaker 3 (40:17):
I love that.
Speaker 5 (40:20):
They welcome you, that lets you know that you're where
you loved it, that you're loved. But there are some
people that can only be serviced online, or some people
that still are a little afraid of COVID. Don't want
to get out there, don't, you know, don't want to
chance it. And COVID is still out there, you know.
But I was at home last Sunday and me and
(40:44):
my mom locked hands and we had church in our apartment.
So you can get the gospel anywhere. I've been to
programs where and this is the truth. I've been to
programs that were supposed to be like a genuine party
and somebody broke out with a gospel song and that
(41:04):
was it. You can anywhere, you know what I'm saying.
So that's my int the church and how it's supposed
to work in your life.
Speaker 3 (41:14):
Though, Amen, and we I liked about that, and you
gave a different aspect over the church, not something negative.
You gave something positive. And that's what we're all about.
Is called positive power for a reason, Positive Power twenty
(41:35):
one Christian Media LLC. That's a blessing. And let's say,
uh shouts out to Jerry Royce. Last last week we
got off too fast we we didn't even give our
shouts out to our our engineer and over the on
the other side of the world.
Speaker 4 (41:54):
You know, sorry, Jerry us, I'll know you some cookies the.
Speaker 3 (42:04):
Last flavor, Oh my god.
Speaker 6 (42:14):
Brother saying I will you some cookies.
Speaker 5 (42:22):
In you my address. I want some of those cookies
beause you've been talking about them.
Speaker 4 (42:26):
Everything you cookies, tell y'all as this up ellis say,
that's from God, that's.
Speaker 10 (42:45):
The Lord's doing, and it's mark my goodness, I.
Speaker 3 (42:58):
Mean laughing now just like those guys. Oh my goodness.
So that's that That means that you're gonna be making
them cookies pretty soon.
Speaker 4 (43:10):
Bro right, I'm pretty sure, I know.
Speaker 3 (43:14):
Right, bring them, bring them.
Speaker 5 (43:16):
In, Roger brings the grill out. Just bring a whole bunch.
Speaker 3 (43:19):
Of them cookies.
Speaker 4 (43:23):
Yes, I'm interested. I want some now, you know, Roder,
you know there's a sona Cookies in Las Vegas.
Speaker 3 (43:34):
Okay, oh my godness, all right, but but are they
are they like the seven cookies that you've been talking about.
Speaker 4 (43:44):
Yeah, I'm telling yes, because when you when you bite
into them, they still more. Oh hi, y'all, y'all, Well,
(44:07):
I know I'm off my rocker, but that's okay.
Speaker 6 (44:11):
But reason why I was sitting there, bro, because you.
Speaker 3 (44:19):
Go to different areas. You know how, there's McDonald's in
almost every city, right, every country, right, Okay, you go
to Vegas, like you said, Okay, and there's some of
the cookies in Vegas, you said, bro. And like you said,
(44:43):
there's in some and some. Man the cookies in the
city that you are are in. Okay. So basically I'm noticing, Okay,
what's the the little small burghers that they have with
the white castle? White castle? Okay, every white castle. They
(45:05):
say that they're supposed to be the same. Okay, all right, okay,
but they're they're different franchises. And this I'm just telling
you from a chef view, okay. So basically, some white
castles are not the same from the white castles. And
(45:26):
from the west coast to the east coast. I can
go on the strip, I can go on the stop.
There's totally different too, That's what I'm saying. So I
hope that these cookies are better.
Speaker 4 (45:45):
Ah, you won't be, I'll tell you that much.
Speaker 5 (45:54):
I'm gonna tell you this.
Speaker 3 (45:56):
I am a full critic, y'all. I am a fool critic.
So I will rape you.
Speaker 5 (46:07):
Just tell me with an honor, mom, because.
Speaker 6 (46:14):
And I wouldn't bring.
Speaker 3 (46:15):
Out you out I would I would rape you, and
I would bring out the the little piece of paper
or my mind and let you know, look, this is
I look at from the back of the kitchen to
the front of the kitchen. At the front of the
kitchen is not handling it like it's supposed to. That's
(46:37):
a dean.
Speaker 10 (46:39):
If the waitress don't show up, like last week I
had a bad waitress, I was like, oh my goodness.
Speaker 3 (46:47):
That's a dean.
Speaker 6 (46:49):
I told.
Speaker 3 (46:51):
I told him, I told her, I said, who's your manager?
I asked one of the waitresses, is who's your manager?
The waitress the other way just said the waitress. The
manager is in the back, she's back to working.
Speaker 6 (47:05):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (47:06):
I'm like, okay, if the manager's working, why is not
this waitress that is supposed to be the waitress to us?
Why she's not handling our table. He's supposed to be
at least two or three or four times to that table,
(47:28):
otherwise you're not eve getting gonna get nothing. And what
Las Vegas is basically based off the based off the tips.

Speaker 4 (14:11):
Okay, let's let's let's go to Chicago. I'm pretty sure
everybody loves smooth jazz. Well we're gonna be in Chicago
for these two. So so, this particular group of musicians
was founded by Grammy Ing pianists Ramsey Lewis Urban Knights.
(14:36):
So Urban Knights is consist of of.
Speaker 3 (14:39):
Course with.
Speaker 4 (14:42):
Ramsey being the founder, and he recruited young musicians like
Calvin Rodgers, Kevin Randolph, Scharay Reed, Maurice Fitzgerald, Joey Woolfolk.
These are gospel musicians that had come together. We can't
forget about Quinn Quinn, Quinn. What's this guy's last name?
(15:06):
His Quinn Johnson, another drummer excess. So so what did
so what Ramsey did? Of course he created a super
smooth jazz group and created a fresh pop R and
(15:31):
B sound from gospel musicians, which is pretty cool. That's
what that was. My introduction to smooth jazz was listening
to Urban Knight's Dream off their two thousand and four album.
I think Urban Knights four or five one of those albums.
(15:53):
So we want to give a good send off to
the late. We just want to say thank you to
the late Ramsey Lewis of putting together a super group
of musicians called the Urban Knights. And then we don't
still stay in Chicai. We're still gonna stay in Chicago

being around this particular guy. He has worked with a
stellar award winning choir, Excelsior. Uh. He has written and
worked with Sounds of Blackness, and he has done some

Oh Michael Jackson's song. I didn't know that.
Speaker 4 (30:11):
Don't stop till you get enough. Yeah, and guess what
she didn't stop?
Speaker 6 (30:21):
She did and she's not.
Speaker 3 (30:23):
She just did. She just did a lot and a
Latin album just just a few weeks ago.
Speaker 4 (30:30):
And also she she's considering for a Grammy too. Mm hmm,

Speaker 6 (30:41):
I think.
Speaker 3 (30:43):
She just got a star, like, uh, shoot.
Speaker 6 (30:48):
Three or four years ago.
Speaker 10 (30:51):
Yeah, yeah, she guess she got him start in Hollywood.
Speaker 6 (30:54):
Three or four years ago.
Speaker 3 (30:56):
If I'm mistaken, h let's stay five to ten years
like that, give a five six here. I mean, yeah,
she just got her start on the Hollywood Walk of Fan.
I can't wait to go find that start. I can't
wait for that start.
Speaker 4 (31:16):
I'm pretty sure it's somewhere downtown or Hollywood Boulevard, is it.
Speaker 3 (31:22):
Yeah, that's what I'm saying. I can't wait to go
find that that that start. That's gonna be a chance
of a lifetime just to take a picture.
Speaker 4 (31:33):
There, you know right, Yeah, I got that.
Speaker 3 (31:41):
Check it out. I have the the Hollywood sign I
was able to to you know that that's that Hollywood
sign is very hard to take a picture of. You
can't take it with you can't take a picture with
your your phone unless your your angles right.
Speaker 4 (32:02):
Right now.
Speaker 3 (32:05):
If you try to take it from downtown, you can
I catch it. You can't catch it good. And me
being a photographer, me, me being a person that know
how to take some good pictures. There's a lot of
stuff that you you know, like you gotta have the
light right, air lighting, right lighting and stuff like that.
(32:29):
I was messing with somebody, matter of fact. Matter of fact,
I was at the d m V because I was
just taking a new, a new uh DMV picture. You
know how those cameras is, right, those those cameras, they
those big cameras. They that that that big light, it
(32:52):
just blooms it just like that, right, I tease. I
made a joke with the camera person. I said, look,
make sure it's four hundred speed.
Speaker 4 (33:06):
Did you get that?
Speaker 3 (33:09):
I said, make sure, I said, make sure it's for
a hundred speed, right, because but my last picture was dark.
It made me look so dark. So basically, what they did,
I will tell you what my family did. Basically, what
they did. They brought their cameras. They brought they had
their camera out there, and they basically started putting their
(33:33):
phone or some other type of lighting to make make.
Speaker 6 (33:38):
Me look a little bit better.
Speaker 3 (33:40):
Because basically that that that background. It if you don't
have the right clothes on, or if you don't have
the right setting or whatever, it's gonna make your your
your face or whatever dark. So think about that next time. Okay,
(34:03):
bright closet, bright clothes or whatever, or make sure it
does not blend in with the the the backdrop, backdrop,
it's gonna help your picture.
Speaker 4 (34:19):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (34:21):
I had him cracking up.
Speaker 4 (34:24):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 8 (34:27):
Yeah, and.
Speaker 3 (34:30):
I was. I had a great message on last week
from Pastor Kelly, the pastor of Vegas vir Church of
God in Christ. You're talking about amazing Pastor Pastor Kelly,
(34:51):
and Lady Kelly, Oh my goodness, and that message to
really touched heart. And guess what it was about adding
and subtracted, Adding, subtraction.
Speaker 6 (35:13):
Do you get that adding?
Speaker 3 (35:15):
The reason why I brought that up because for the
past two or three weeks we haven't been talking about
that adding and subtracting. Remember that, Yeah, adding people in
your life, the right people that's gonna be in your life,
that's gonna be in there for the lo lord or
either subtracting them or taking them away. Because if you've
(35:37):
put the wrong people in your your life and your lifestyle,
it can get you and put you in the wrong places.
Speaker 4 (35:47):
Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 3 (35:49):
Adding and so I was really, really, really really touched
by that message with Pastor Kelly. You're talking about you know,
if you're looking for a church home, you know, you
know bigas view of its place. I'm not just saying
(36:12):
that because I'm one of the musicians. Yes we do
have great music there, Yes you do. You do have
a great drummer there. Yes you do have a great
keyboard is there. But you know that church is really
really growing. Reason why I'm saying is really growing because
it's not just going with our color, is going with
(36:39):
all colors, all colors. Yeah, white, Hispanic, you mean it,
it was they there, they're coming. So it's it's really touching.
That's what they're really touching to me because it's very
(37:00):
encouraging to me that he's doing great things. He's not
he's not saying that he's the one that's doing this.
He's saying God is the one that's doing this.
Speaker 5 (37:13):
That's right.
Speaker 3 (37:14):
He's he's the but the shepherd. He's not saying, Okay,
this is my church. You know how you get certain
pastors and and certain leaders always say this is my church.
He said, I'm working for you. I'm working for you,
and I like stuff like that. You know when when
(37:37):
you you look, you lay everything out there on the
on the line for the ministry, not you just taking
over the ministry. That's a blessing, right right, what's good
on that?
Speaker 4 (38:00):
Go ahead? What's your input on it?
Speaker 5 (38:06):
My input? My input on.
Speaker 3 (38:09):
Just the blessing in general.
Speaker 6 (38:11):
Or repeat the question for me, like say.
Speaker 3 (38:14):
For instance, we are the church. You understand what I'm saying.
That's basically what I'm saying. We are the church, and
you have to put you have to put your yourself
as the church, not the basically you're you're you're being
in those four walls. That's basically what I'm saying. So
(38:38):
how do you see yourself or how do you see it?
See that as the church?
Speaker 5 (38:46):
So again, you don't have to physically and this is
just my opinion, you.
Speaker 3 (38:51):
Don't have to physically church.
Speaker 5 (38:55):
To receive blessing, to receive your healing. The church is
on the inside you, that's right between you and God
is what's most important. And so literally have a relationship
with God. Like say, for instance, one of my special
places that.
Speaker 3 (39:14):
I go is in my closet.
Speaker 5 (39:16):
I have an actual prayer closet that I go through
and it's my and I pray in there. I read
in there and listen to my words, my music. You know,
it's just my getaway place from everything. Because then the
word it says that we're supposed to have a secret
place anyway, right, We're supposed to, you know, to be
(39:36):
somewhere we can close the doors and just have that
one on one with God.
Speaker 3 (39:40):
So the changes on the.
Speaker 5 (39:42):
Side of us, meaning we can go out there and
do something nice for someone. God sees that we can
go and feed the homeless. I see that, you know
what I'm saying. So I just feel like I personally
love going to church. I'm not gonna lie loved going
because they give hugs. No, for real, I genuinely I'm
(40:09):
the one that walks through the doors, and the ladies
that are standing there, the God that standing there, they
give hugs. I husband back.
Speaker 3 (40:17):
I love that.
Speaker 5 (40:20):
They welcome you, that lets you know that you're where
you loved it, that you're loved. But there are some
people that can only be serviced online, or some people
that still are a little afraid of COVID. Don't want
to get out there, don't, you know, don't want to
chance it. And COVID is still out there, you know.
But I was at home last Sunday and me and
(40:44):
my mom locked hands and we had church in our apartment.
So you can get the gospel anywhere. I've been to
programs where and this is the truth. I've been to
programs that were supposed to be like a genuine party
and somebody broke out with a gospel song and that
(41:04):
was it. You can anywhere, you know what I'm saying.
So that's my int the church and how it's supposed
to work in your life.
Speaker 3 (41:14):
Though, Amen, and we I liked about that, and you
gave a different aspect over the church, not something negative.
You gave something positive. And that's what we're all about.
Is called positive power for a reason, Positive Power twenty
(41:35):
one Christian Media LLC. That's a blessing. And let's say,
uh shouts out to Jerry Royce. Last last week we
got off too fast we we didn't even give our
shouts out to our our engineer and over the on
the other side of the world.
Speaker 4 (41:54):
You know, sorry, Jerry us, I'll know you some cookies the.
Speaker 3 (42:04):
Last flavor, Oh my god.
Speaker 6 (42:14):

you know there's a sona Cookies in Las Vegas.
Speaker 3 (43:34):
Okay, oh my godness, all right, but but are they
are they like the seven cookies that you've been talking about.
Speaker 4 (43:44):
Yeah, I'm telling yes, because when you when you bite
into them, they still more. Oh hi, y'all, y'all, Well,
(44:07):
I know I'm off my rocker, but that's okay.
Speaker 6 (44:11):
But reason why I was sitting there, bro, because you.
Speaker 3 (44:19):
Go to different areas. You know how, there's McDonald's in
almost every city, right, every country, right, Okay, you go
to Vegas, like you said, Okay, and there's some of
the cookies in Vegas, you said, bro. And like you said,
(44:43):
there's in some and some. Man the cookies in the
city that you are are in. Okay. So basically I'm noticing, Okay,
what's the the little small burghers that they have with
the white castle? White castle? Okay, every white castle. They
(45:05):
say that they're supposed to be the same. Okay, all right, okay,
but they're they're different franchises. And this I'm just telling
you from a chef view, okay. So basically, some white
castles are not the same from the white castles. And
(45:26):
from the west coast to the east coast. I can
go on the strip, I can go on the stop.
There's totally different too, That's what I'm saying. So I
hope that these cookies are better.

The waitress the other way just said the waitress. The
manager is in the back, she's back to working.
Speaker 6 (47:05):

Why she's not handling our table. He's supposed to be
at least two or three or four times to that table,
(47:28):
