I done got it That's the way I love to see it happen because it's real man It's crazy how that whole thing how long did it last because I didn't I I didn't watch the whole thing But how long did you you how how was the process? The process till we got to Houston is great till we got there We got to the Barnes and Noble. He was doing the book signing So we got the light we can the lights we get the cameras ready.  It's cold outside. The only thing that was outside was a little raggedy table Three little chairs. There was no lights And it's cold So we told his people like they say we got to do the interview outside and all this They was ready to go watch the fight. This is the fight where they fought Tyson fury and don't take wild at the first time I'm like, man This is going to be limited, right So they saw one of the lights so they pulled all the Rolls Royces and Bentley's To the table to shine lights on the table so we can have lights at least they were working with you They was working with me. Now what you didn't see in the interview was like the 13 to 14 people who was surrounding the table on the outside Yeah Oh, you nervous so You know what it is if you had it inside Barnes and Nobles is like people would have recognized the store and they don't want to Be affiliated with any other interview, right? Right. Yeah. Yeah, you didn't you got them questions prepped in you prepped them questions I had them prepped and how cold you said it was it was at least a good 35 that night Okay, y'all man, y'all can handle it Man up, it's cold, but I'm interviewing Jay Prince. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah prepping them questions to make sure they're right All the questions I had the timeline I had gets thrown out the window because now we ain't got like 10 to 15 minutes Yeah, yeah, now you got it. You got going to fly. You just got to kind of just randomly ask And I had my homeboy with me. So I was kind of bouncing off of him when he asked me I'm like good. Let me think of something uh this this so we made it work It wasn't my best interview. It wasn't what I wanted. Yeah. Yeah, but As far as credibility, I got that part of it. Like nobody can say that I did interview Jay Prince and I did So that's part of the resume. So when people ask me what he's done It's part of it Don't you hate like on an interview like that and you ask whatever's on the top of your head But at the end when you're done, you're like, dang, I should have asked this I should have asked it like all of the other questions start flowing to your head of what you should have asked on the fly right and but How do you feel about that? I don't worry about it. It is what it is. The work is done Yeah, you know, I think like damn I should ask that but I won't linger on it. You can't because the work is done You can't right and if you get a part two just ask it next time. Yeah. Yeah, but you just make the best out of it I think I think you I think you hit it on the nail You just got to make sure that you you know once, you know, it's old fortune gum wrap I used to read say, you know Ain't no sense in crying over spilled milk your cattle lick it up Meaning don't worry about it. Ain't nothing you can do about it. You got to move on so um Little flip what what I got to get the old little flip, you know, he got a podcast now. Yeah, he do Yeah, but I want to I want to see how that how did that interview get uh, Get how did you end up interviewing little flip? My partner ricky lat a good artist out of the street boy. Make sure you check him out He's dope ricky lat shout out to ricky lat. What up, baby? He's like the Curtis may feel of hip hop. Oh, yeah Yeah, he got some real nice sound. So check him out when you get a chance He knew His business manager. Okay. It's I can't remember the female's name.  He's gonna be in Shreveport this day just pull up on him and to be straight So we pulled up at the club. He was gonna be at he was late For his performance, but the club was about to close. He was really pissed at him, right?  He's like, no, no, we're doing the interview.  So I sat in there. I'm all no games I'm all looking at the stars and all this stuff. You can't just slide slide by the rose Royce statement Niggas in Texas getting money. Don't y'all never think down south We see we ain't gotta worry about them pot holes.  We got good highways.  We are here. Yeah, tell him again.  No to him to him. I want to know to him Who is the biggest and then who is the best interview you've ever had? So two answers I'm gonna say the biggest interview is making this day. Okay, because just the way the interview flow And that was the that was the genesis of her career, right to me that that's still the biggest, right? Yeah But I think one of my oh man favorites. I got so many I think shun cotton was my favorite because he does exactly what I do and he gave me so many gems in the interview You got that nigga number We're gonna call that nigga. I'm gonna call that nigga.  That's why boss is coming to town. That's why you here with the belt Yeah, you the champ. That's how he got um jay prince.  Yeah gunslinger and everything I do You let that cat know today that boss talk 101 is officially invited him on boss talk out It's going down, but and I know the plug to him. So it's all good. See we got it both ways We got it both ways I would love to get him on here because I've interviewed some people that he's interviewed me and charlson white Um different people that done came to mike jones. So it'd be good to chop it up with him Right, right. How did you come up with a name taco? Um takeover tv take over tv? Now he told that story a little bit. I think you missed it that song that song. Yeah, it's okay. That's okay. It's okay. You missed it It's okay. Give it a remix or listeners might miss it too. So Okay We're gonna go back, right But no, like I said, I was listening to them satellite radio They is playing the original song and then the rap version, right? This is so like I said the doors five to one was playing That's the name of the rock song and jay-z the takeover is the rap song So that's how it came about like I said, I'm aggressive per I like aggressions. I don't like passive stuff So the name fit. I like the beat. It was a ready-made theme and we good to go I love the name. You say no army over over 20 years. Yes, sir. Wow in the air force Why don't I think the army air force probably cause of this right here take over take over on Because he wouldn't sound right if it said take over tv air force, you know It just wouldn't sound right. You should you could have said um take over tv af No, that one's everybody with his af I got time to answer all the questions. You the shop brother. Do you know the shop ones go to the air force? I know about it. So why did you leave though? No, he retired. I know but everybody keep everybody I know keep on reading listening and real listening and re-listing.  That's all I need. Yeah, okay Yeah, I mean you could keep going but uh, no, I got other things to do right some people do keep going though I hear young you're pretty young. So you enlisted when you were 18? I was 18 years old So once I hit 20 and I got what I needed Uncle Sam got 20 years of what he needed now it's time for me to get what I need Man, we appreciate your service. So man, because you went through some times you you've seen action Yeah, see what I mean. I can I know what I wrecked afghanis. Yeah, man We appreciate your time. So if we needed a pilot you can Hold up now. That wasn't his place. I don't think. No, that's what everybody think. You can ask for what you could fly No, I'm not a pilot. I don't like I don't even like flying.   I'll tell you the last job I did. I did mortuary, right? So I was dealing with the dead soldiers. Wow, and I did that on deployment too. Wow So you had to um ice the body bag tag get them into the transfer case and you get them shipped. So And some of these people I had to process some of these people I knew wow So that that's a whole another mental aspect that you got to tap into psd Okay, I got a question. Here we go because she had a thing for this too Okay, because um because I wanted to I want to do another segment with um about mental health with mainly Um military because I saw something one day and I never thought of it in that aspect when the pandemic hit You know, you couldn't go outside and so forth, but people with psd. Is it psd? Ptsd. That's what it is right ptsd Um psychologists or psych um psychiatrists would tell them they have to interact with people because that's the best way for them to get over what they're doing And with the pandemic you cannot interact with people like you want to because of the pandemic, of course So they went into You know reverted Whenever they had to um, they went reverted they reverted themselves because they was going through that situation where they couldn't interact with other people. Okay. So the main thing was Getting out here talking to people that's the only way they can overcome So they had I remember a lady said Every time they had to go to the grocery store They had a panic attack because they wonder if that was the day they were going to contract covid and die Compared to when you are overseas and you had to go out in the field.  So and I never thought of it in that way where covid was concerned comparing to when you're in the military You know what I mean, right? So I wanted to get someone on here to talk about that situation and how it affected them mentally I was ready to make for the covid situation Because when you deploy you get put in this area where you can't leave The people that's here are the only people you're gonna know for six months year at a time You're not going anywhere The stuff you have there. That's what you're gonna have right So when covid hit and you lock down I'm like, this is easy. This is easy work for me I've been locked down with just this amount of people And can't maneuver You know like you want to And the military get it trains you to adapt to any situation Pretty much But um, were you suffered with PTSD? Uh, yeah, I got diagnosed not with the most severe case But I got I got a um diagnosed with adjustment disorder. There's another check, you know, right there you go No You know, so I got it just with adjustment disorder. Yeah, you got you got you got diagnosed I didn't know how severe I didn't know how severe these people who were talking about this case how severe they were with that PTSD Why it you know why they felt that way some people are real severe with it Mine wasn't as bad, but I'm a natural introvert anyway So it didn't bother me. It's crazy because I'm an interviewer, right? Yeah, and and I'm an introvert. So that's like a oxymoron Very much so when the pandemic it I was cool what what it made me do is tap in To other talents that I didn't know I really had I'm locked in this place. I can't go anywhere. I start getting on photoshop Trying new projects pull up youtube here how to make this I you know Go step by step how to make flyers I go step by step So I was getting my game up getting my social media game up Learning how to do post create certain posts and doing all that. I didn't look at it as a bad thing If there's going to be a bad situation, I'm going to try to make the best out of it You know, that's what the soldier. Are you married or have any kids? Yes. Mary got two daughters. Okay. Wow. Wow, that's something All right. So even when it snowed down in ice stovin It wasn't no water. So what we're going to do we're going to chop this ice We're going to get this propane tape. We're going to boil this water This icing we're going to have water We're going to designate bathrooms one for one one for number two We you know, we're going to fill these toilets up. I mean these bathtubs up with much water as we can Oh, I was ready. You know, I know how to survive survive mode survival mode The survival skills kicked in. So while they was on facebook whining and crying, baby, we kicking up. We good over here already man, so Do you think that um Who would you who would you like to What interview do have you not landed that you'd like to land?  I won't slim thugger Do you? Yeah, man, you won't slim thugger. You ain't much out to him. That's my Dover It's just funny how stuff fall. It's so far different. It's a print. She's like, oh, well, I should be able to get anybody It ain't like it just don't work. It don't work that way And I agree. You don't know who you're going like like I'm getting certain people and it's like damn No, like I I got a guy flying in from south car with north Carolina next weekend He's coming all the way to be on boss talk. It's crazy. You don't know people see me I don't know what it is about this platform. They in my dm I'm like, I ain't never I ain't never been attacked in dm like these women been being attacked But I feel them now. I see what's going on. It's not sliding in my dm's like this It's only going to get worse man. Oh, yeah It won't to get down I'm like, man, you know when I first did that this was for us to be able to reach people to help people But now it's like people reaching out to me like we want to we want to rock which we see what you're doing We love what's going on with the show and we want to be on boss talk and it's like, okay Well, and then they have to fit. I mean my the people that were working on my team We have to say, okay, this is something that fit what we're doing. It got to be something that's going to help somebody That's our first and ultimate goal like a person like you and when you said using the military We looked at what you do and it was like you already interviewed all these people We felt like it'd be something for other bloggers bloggers. That was the same thing with trail talk No pill time ways to help other people to understand, you know What this this could be someone's aspiration to do this And you could be their inspiration and then y'all show it looks good. Yeah when the show looks good Oh, people gonna want to hop on it. They want to get on there. They want to get on because it's nice Yeah, but thank you man. We try, you know, we've been we've been pushing man We trying to make sure that everybody can feel comfortable coming on here That got something that they want to present to the world, bro. And that's what it's all about. This is dope I'm really enjoying You said that everybody start normally, um, it's gonna get worse But what are your criteria is like who do you turn back compared to who do you say? Okay, fine First you got to have something going right You got to have something going you got to have some momentum You got to have somewhat of a follow it depends how you approach me to You know, if you um because I get these inboxes like are they in your deal? Say nigga, I want to interview Say nigga, I want to Are you here to say nigga? Say nigga, I want it Hey, they gonna shout out to my own bar you shout out to my own bar coin. I can send him He got an answer for him. No even trip. I got a nigga that I answer. I got something about it for that I'll be having the answer too. What do you say? I don't say nothing. You see I probably perfect this thing while you use my finger swipe it this way and hit the red button I'm probably gonna do the same thing. I'm out of there. You gotta have some you gotta have some respect When you do anything So these guys don't have no respect. Why how would they expect you to respond to that? I'm like, dude, you're trying to get something from me. When I asked these people I want to interview nigga You gotta come respect for you Approach you like that face to face. No, no, no. See, they don't do it face to face, right?  Never Never What you think When you gonna put me on they gotta want to be all you're not gonna be on Never That's crazy. So streetport Music scene.

No, that's not it Yeah, well there ain't no internet. They got phone. Everybody got cell phone now Yeah, so what's the problem? They don't have that one like dallas has dallas global real life street stars say cheese They have these big platforms to get everybody notice, right? We working on it down that way, but we don't have that one big hub To have that internet presence to get their music out there. Okay to the other region They working but we working too to try to build it up But what the artists have to realize you gotta help us build these platforms up the more eyes is on it The more eyes it's going to see you. You just don't want other east texas people seeing you You want everybody to see you won't use to see your doubts to see you baton rouge new oil Jackson Atlanta everybody, right? So a You gotta be putting out content so people can see B If you artists not going on your instagram, I won't let down six or seven roles I ain't seen no music. Then ain't nobody gonna take you serious. You supposed to be an artist, right? All right, let's see some work if I'm a blogger.  So I Who's the hottest artist in down in street boy right now?

Hey, hey, and and and and and that Social media streams have spoken That's what you gotta look at I love the way the internet tell you you could say what you want to say, but the numbers ain't lying You see how many videos he how he keeps dropping every time. That's how you get noticed. And then he called me and said, hey, man Um, um, send me something man.

So whoever you were trying to tell that they were good Or bella You just gave it up man. Hey, hey, shout out to smoothie man.  I'm one of them.  I mean, but like I said, it's a lot more than just the music to it when you deal with this stuff It's a lot more to it. You got to have you got to have a lot of things going and communication is key I have a good team You got to have a good team But but the way you are the way you are the team predicts that too So I get it that you got to have the image the image the team, you know You got to know how to communicate if you're not going to communicate It's hard get one of them side chicks or somebody Whoever you need to get he probably need to get you if you writing j prince in the middle of the night Making niggas move too. I'm not saying I'm not saying smooth. I can't communicate, but I'm just saying No, no, no, you don't have a team any artist any artist But that's why I said team because if you can't do something you need to have a person around you who can do that Somebody that you trust because that's the main thing with teamwork Is that you trust the person that know that they're going to represent you your best interest Teamwork make the dream work true story.   And she said a name and all that stuff. I'm like, well, hell, you just killed any chance You got with me work with him. He hit me up maybe two months later.  So whoever you have repping for you. They need to be they speak for you Right. So if this lady's cussing me out, that's you cussing me out And so this this ain't gonna work.  You know what I'm saying? We just really just telling you what what what we see and hopefully we can do it in a way that's tasteful But you know, long as you got the right energy We we don't mind working with anybody trying to help show shed light on their artistic ways, you know I know you feel the same way, right, you know, but you got to have you got to know how to approach the situation guys You know, um, I love I love people. I love music You love music as you wouldn't be doing this Love music love dealing with interacting with people and trying to make sure that people see what's going on So what how how did you come up with the belt? What's up with the belt? What's that boy passing try? Is that him? Yeah, yeah, that's him. Yeah. Did you steal that from him? No, I've been I've been a wrestling I'm saying I mean passing try got the belt you got the belt. What's up, right? One I've been a wrestling fan forever since my grandma had me watch it with the von Erics and bruiser bro Okay, wait a minute. That's what I don't see now. That's what you know That's what you messed up at If you a fan of the von Erics name Kevin Kerry David Chris Mike And fritz the father did you say Kevin? Yeah, I said Did you say Kerry? Kerry, Kevin, David, Chris, and Mike Okay, I'll let you write. Okay. And what was their signature move? Kerry von there had let's see now Kevin had the iron they the iron claw. Oh, there it is. He's a real fan There it is a wrestling at the sportatorium in Dallas.  Oh, that was Kerry. Yeah, Kerry off the motorcycle. That's right. How you know about all that?  I'm a wrestling fan. I love wrestling. Have you ever wrestled? No, no We got a little we got a little Ken folk to rattle tempers tempers rattle rattle one of our clothes No, I can't do it But you but you but you like that way that the belts and everything signify. I got another guy that's coming on the show that got uh a Pit bull bully bully pits and he got a belt and he does the belt thing. He got belts for I guess they gave out belts So when I first started um the taekwondo podcast show It was we monitored the people's champion, right? You name me what champion and you got a belt That's right.  You got a belt the champ got the belt so it depends on what what um sport you're in Yeah, but we talk about normal individuals You know me I'm a rap We ain't never we got chains, but they they had They got medals. We got chain nigga. We rap Let me go hit that nigga one time nigga. You ain't the only one we're in the big chain game Shout out to my nigga drape man. I'm in the big chain game and I'm gonna be honored with you Will you get the belt nigga? I got the chain then I'm a real live rapper to be honored with Don't come over. Thank you. I'll do because you're not gonna do that That's the old eric b rocket chain right there. Yeah, I told you I got I got the chain You know me So I went with the chain effect and it does light up just in case don't make me turn the lights on You can go hard people love Belts I learned this one. I went to slim thuggers. Um kickback, right? Yeah When in there, I'm like this is the best billboard that you can ever have as a belt because people don't people gonna look at it Okay. Well, I took it to a South by Southwest one year. I don't know how many times I got stopped for pictures It won't take me to take a picture with the belt. Wow. Take a picture with you Do this. Do you kick box? Do you do this? But this is a walk-in billboard Do you think South by Southwest gonna be uh back up back popping this time? Uh Might take a couple years. I don't yeah, it's gonna take a couple years to get back So they didn't listen to Greg Abbott say it's open back up. What you talking about? He down in austere No Maybe maybe next year or two years down the road, but people gotta feel confident, right? If you've been in the South by Southwest, which I know y'all probably have you know when it gets in light you You air tight So that's how you pass it being air tight.  I'm fully vaccinated. But still now. So what what um What do you think? What do you think that that that we need to do to make music? great again as Media platforms blogs and stuff.  I do You know, he who you know exactly what he's talking about.  So I believe it's on the consumer Because if I rap and say a b c d e and I sell a million records, why should I change? I hear you. You know I'm saying consumer demand would make people change if you sold your shirts $100 a shirt And nobody bought them. You're gonna eventually bring them up down to 70 or 50 So the consumers have to do man change From the artist, but if you buy an a b c d and they go on triple plat they go change is working But you as a consumer have a chance to change that and until the consumer demands better You're not getting better But the newer generations are accepting when the older generation like us is looking at like no, that's not That's not right. Well if you talk about hip-hop, it's a young generation game So they control the narrative. They won't a b c d e That's what gonna be that's what it's gonna be and i'ma rock out to it a b c d And if you got a dope beat to it, I could I could make it long the money coming in. I'm rocking with them Oh, they're getting that money. I'm and they getting that money. So, you know, that's what the people are appealing to That's why I love the way the internet flow too Because to tell you if something hot ain't gonna tell you can't deny it Ain't nothing you can do about it but ride with it or collide with it, but I want to know something go ahead.  See the south a little bit Let me tell you something. I'm gonna say that for you go the south feel like a lot of times we we don't get the respect We need and when they seen bird man do that they to them.  Listen, man. You're gonna be respectful to us We we don't care how much money you got really in the south You're gonna give us our we demand respect and that's what that's what that's about when you keep talking Well, we the radio it don't matter At some point look man have some respect Well, you don't respect yourself because you did it. You don't know me to be even saying I did what you don't know me Yeah, so at the end of the day have some respect unless you know me You speak on something that's true Don't just don't just drag my name through the mud like that and I think I understood where he was coming from You know what I mean, but everybody got the issues, bro But to answer your question there was one interview. I ain't gonna say his name. Yeah say it I ain't gonna say his name.  Oh, he got bad From baby all the way down like He went through there. I'm like, man, somebody's gonna get executed for this And luckily by the grace of god The audio had went out like And I was like, hey, I can't put it out It ain't gonna work because you that's where you gotta make a decision Even they had a it would have had tons of views because the word would have gotten around, right? But if you know a thing about streetport, they don't play no games down there I'm taught two or three people get shot a day down there. You know what I'm saying So you gotta know the bridges you about to burn on interviews like that You get the views you get to know the variety, but that that residual that collateral damage Are you gonna be able to overcome that these people? This ain't like I'm doing in Chicago and I get to go back to streetport. We talk about streetport I live in the streetport and a lot of these people like the people that he was talking shit about so You might not have said it but it was on your platform So you're gonna take the brunt and responsibility.   That's a true story. He's just getting his story side of story I don't like this I can ride with that right Because buck could come on there like this didn't happen this way But if it's on some man, I don't like this nigga. I don't like and it ain't no validation and no real substance behind it Then I do I agree. This ain't this ain't gonna ride here.  Yeah, you're for your girls I agree 100% I mean the thing I can say is You cuz because you do have people to get on platform say whatever and talk bad about whatever situation And that's really money and other people pockets when it become a thing about their artist So you do have to be careful how you address different things that you talk about on the platform But you also have to be You have to tell the truth when you're dealing with me.  You know that I mean we had Charleston white on here So hell ain't no telling what the hell I ain't telling who heard what he had to say What I'm saying is you don't know and and at the end of the day You just pretty much letting the person tell their truth or their story But I do know I like what he done with those kids He he really in the community I just went to a deal where I spoke to the juvenile children behind Charleston white where I was able to speak to them and they locked up and incarcerated whatever, you know And and we was able to this was just was that yesterday yesterday. So, you know, I'm about real So, you know I'm gonna do what the heck I feel for kids for sure And if it's somewhere I see somebody doing something and they really speaking the truth. See a lot of times When Charleston speaks and I'm just gonna speak on him briefly He speak about certain things that happen with the children and rap Is it true? Is it positive that they're doing to the children or negative? Ask yourself that In certain aspects, well, they just making music, but it's influential very So whereas so when he says these things, is it something That's truth If he's trying to save some children and stop six that might not have shoes and clothes to put on And he's trying to influence them in a positive manner You understand where I'm coming from right so you have to stop and ask yourself What side do you want to be on? Do you want to help the children? Or do you want to help influence them into a place where they can't make it? That's a good question That you have to ask yourself if you got any morals about yourself If you got any morals about yourself and you really trying to see a change in the children And you trying to do something to help change the community and the masses of the people that you touch What are you going to do? Are you going to become a part of the process or the problem? These are things that you got to ask yourself. These are just questions that you have to bring up when it comes down to dealing with What we're dealing with here And so I love like I love I love the music But I I love John Wayne movies too. I love uh bonanza too So you got to be able to look at all sides of this coin to know Where this thing is falling is he rapping from the heart or is he right? What is this? Because ice cube would talk about it like you showed me the other this morning or yesterday where this isn't this is not real I'm an actor When I say this on a rap song I'm just portraying something of a story not all of it is real some of it is real and some of it is So so it's just you got to be able to decipher what's going on, man You know what I mean that that's all and we this isn't an easy thing to do It's not and I never would have thought about it this way Till I start dealing with it like we've been dealing with it here on boss all going on You know if I say something real quick go ahead like Y'all gonna be a big deal before long Why do you say that because a you're in the prime location you up here in the metro place in Dallas for once Everybody has to come through Dallas at some point of another right? Yeah. Yeah, B. You got the credit But you don't have a Charleston white on here. Yeah, you don't have Mike Jones on here Yeah, we got more people come and more people star power Drives a platform to that next level. We just had sir Charles Jones on it every night. Yeah people Whether you deny it or not star power Carries those platforms to the next level. Yeah. Yeah, and which I'll be at the right place right time Right people great holes. Good. Look. It's only matter of time. Really? We'll receive we take it. It's only matter of time You could just I have the ability just to see different things to see what stuff is trending like big D Yeah, big big D just don't he's got interviews that got 500,600. Yeah, they're going good We don't have these conversations. Yeah like this and He went yeah, you can see it. I can see it. I Asked you a question though. Yes, ma'am star power You said drive it, but then on the other flip because I like I told you earlier We don't only have rappers on here, but we do bill of health. We do a lot of different and certain topics that are And we have real estate on here today society How does that part where I have a platform comparing to so What I kind of mean I should probably cleared up a little bit The stars are going to bring in the subscribers Interviews right and once they subscribe to that channel and you come in with all these fire interviews The next one that drops they know you're known for fire interviews. You got to subscribers It's going to hit the alerts on the on the subscribers, right? That's great And You might not get as many views in middle hill, but you're going to still get the views because now you got the people Yeah, yeah, like it's some people that Vlad interviews. I don't know who the hell they are But he's known for great interviews. So I watch them They end up being good interviews. You just you just you gotta bring them in that way Yeah, but those stars brings in your initial subscribers. They know you like, okay This is a platform that's known for having some big people And then people will be willing to give the little people that you interview a chance because they know You got the credibility. Yeah, it's kind of like like we had the juvenile detention lady on here We could so go and hers is doing good now You know, it's like some more people looking at her because of the platform And then we're still growing and subscribers. They just been going It's crazy that you have to bring the stars to be able to get the subscribers to be able to to push out information because We started our platform mainly to inform educate right or listeners on different topics You know what I mean? So but you have to bring them to be able to get them to come and be I mean, that's how I go. Let's let's really be honest about it. Now. If you interviewed um Three guys down the street another guy around the corner two guys over there like who who's going really Who's going really even if they had great talking to be great people, but who's going really what like? I don't know them. Yeah, I don't know them and I don't know them and So I mean, that's just the way it works. Right. Even sometimes I would see a platform I don't know the hell this I'm not really interested but But like I said the stars and the bigger people Right feel the audience up. Yeah, you can start that's what's happening Now you can start gambling and getting some of these smaller people because now you got your What we call your core audience that's going to watch you no matter what no matter what and then then the appearance You know, like the way we doing the the way we putting it out to the masses when they see it It's a good look and I like I say it's a good look at people like to be on a good look at stuff Yeah, yeah, so let me let let me ask you this. So this is something that I do. Uh, okay um The um top three artists Uh You've seen this before Top three artists of all time The top three artists of all times, man You got to give us what you think man.

So that's networking right I made a good impact on you. So you sent me to somebody else Right. So that's really how you should do in life not only on here But if you want to be somebody in life, you should be able to always network just like our daughter said About college. She's like, I'm not going to college because of an education. I'm going to network That's powerful there most people go for education because she's a straight-A student anyway She's gonna get her education Exactly, but in her frame of mind is like, okay, I'm gonna pick my college depends on I'm looking at how much money they make I'm looking at who goes to the college So she's not looking at also, okay, what I can get educational wise from this.
