hear your voice man sincer just like
3:47
sway when I saw that announcement I said
3:49
Woo and F you know the reasons that sway
3:52
said but also the reasons for me being a
3:54
woman in particular I just so appreciate
3:58
seeing women um really showcase that it
4:01
gets greater later you know and you had
4:04
spoken about this in the past as well in
4:07
terms of like you can be a mother later
4:10
in life and that can be a powerful
4:13
decision and in a lot of ways there's
4:15
benefits to that you know oh my God I
4:19
speak on that I am so happy to be an
4:22
older mom honestly because listen I
4:25
definitely have had a lot of life and
4:26
I'm so thankful but I and I've said this
4:29
to my friends have teased me about this
4:30
like I matured very late like I just
4:32
wanted to be out in the scene and
4:35
I work um I love work I actually my work
4:39
is everything to me it always has been
4:42
um and I think you know when you're
4:44
younger you just think it's gonna happen
4:46
you think oh I'mma fall in love I'm G
4:47
get married or whatever you know I'm G
4:49
find somebody I'm G get pregnant when
4:50
I'm ready to get pregnant I'm G get
4:51
pregnant so it never even occurred to me
4:54
that it would be an issue ever um and
4:57
then you know going through that process
4:59
then you know people discourage you too
5:02
society makes you feel like as a woman
5:04
oh why you ain't got no kids yeah you
5:05
don't want no kids and d and it's like
5:07
yo let me just be on my journey the
5:10
other thing is though too on top of all
5:13
of that I didn't even know I had the
5:15
issues that I had the fibroid issues
5:17
that I had
5:19
so yes it took a little longer but
5:22
honestly I know this is the right time
5:25
nothing happens by mistake especially
5:28
when it's God's time and I'm fine with
5:30
it like and I'm happy to be an older Mom
5:32
it it's it's like I I will be the
5:34
calmest most present most loving um
5:38
parent I could be ever yeah and you
5:40
still look like the youngest mom so
5:42
there's that
5:44
part thank you girl uhhuh I don't know
5:47
if Eve drinking goat blood or what she
5:49
doing but
5:52
she what you doing Eve you want to talk
5:55
to
5:56
me give us a secret regimen yo she
5:58
looking great you know what you know
6:00
what's funny though it's funny I do look
6:01
back at pictures of myself and I'm like
6:03
dang but you could totally tell the life
6:05
I was living I really I lived hard I'm
6:08
not gonna lie I drank a lot I smoked a
6:10
lot I I did I I was partying like I was
6:13
out in the theme and I didn't take care
6:15
of myself it took me years to kind of
6:17
just really calm down and really
6:20
treasure myself and take care of myself
6:22
and that's where I'm at now I just I try
6:24
to take care of myself truth be told you
6:26
said something really interesting too
6:28
like had you had a child like things
6:30
happened for a reason like you said this
6:31
is no this is by Design not by accident
6:34
and had you had a child you know at
6:36
those times early on in your career you
6:39
wouldn't have been able to be as I'm not
6:42
saying it's impossible but the way your
6:44
career the way your career was going
6:46
like I don't think you would have been
6:47
able to be as present not just
6:49
physically but mentally right no no and
6:53
also I did a lot of work on myself man I
6:55
went through a lot of stuff I've healed
6:58
it's it's been part of me and I'm still
7:00
going through it to heal certain things
7:02
in my life whether it's familial
7:06
things and that all that stuff is
7:09
important to me I didn't want to bring
7:12
anything into or give anything to my
7:16
child that I may have inherited that's
7:19
not even mine that's from some family
7:21
stuff and so you know that's kind of
7:23
stuff was important to me too I feel
7:25
like I had to clear some things out and
7:27
be okay with who I am before this could
7:29
ever happen wow that's amazing Eve is
7:32
here Eve is here Eve is here now your
7:35
husband your husband and I have met a
7:37
few times with a great guy yes that dude
7:40
is
7:41
cool he is he's here with me too he's
7:43
here in New York Max still tell him my
7:45
said salute tell him myself said what up
7:47

7:49
but I will okay cool how what you know
7:52
how happy is he you know he already has
7:55
kids but now he got a new one coming you
7:58
know what he been was trying to have a
8:00
kid with me when we first met like stud
8:03
met okay he was trying to lock that down
8:05
I get it he was trying to lock that
8:08
down he really was and like and I love
8:12
my my bonus kids are amazing like he's
8:14
so happy to be a dad again he's such an
8:17
amazing Dad it's one of the reasons why
8:19
I fell in love with him is because of
8:21
how good of a dad he is so yeah he's
8:24
he's happy to be back on this journey
8:25
like we'll be the older parents but
8:27
we'll be fly we'll be cool I want to
8:30
jump into Queens but it just entered my
8:31
mind right now Eve thinking about other
8:34
interracial um relationships would you
8:37
have any advice on how to speak to
8:40
couples that are going to have their
8:41
first black
8:43
child yeah I don't you know it it listen
8:47
it's I'm just going through it as well
8:49
you know it's like wow I love is love
8:53
though and I know obviously there are
8:55
issues in the world but I think the best
8:58
you could do is the only thing you could
9:00
do is to try to be the best parent you
9:03
could be to also see both sides of the
9:05
coin obviously as you're making this
9:07
child who will be both side made up of
9:09
both sides of the coin but also just
9:11
make sure you grow a child that is I
9:14
don't know the most confident the most
9:17
understanding the most compassionate
9:19
like it's gon it's GNA take a lot it's G
9:21
to take a lot of
9:23
conversation um and things you can't shy
9:25
away from the hard stuff and I think
9:27
that's the only way that you can raise a
9:29
child that is going to be a mixed child
9:31
definitely absolutely Eve is here I'm
9:33
loving it am I love you talking about
9:36
that healing you had to do because we we
9:39
walk right we walk around and don't even
9:41
realize that we need healing um well I
9:44
fig I start I my my problem was and I've
9:47
talked about this before especially when
9:48
I was on the talk like I was drinking so
9:50
much because I was trying to numb so
9:53
much and I didn't realize that until for
9:56
years you know until I got a bit older
9:57
and I was like man I can't obviously
9:59
keep going down this path what is it
10:01
that I need to fix what is it that I
10:03
need to clear out and it's real you you
10:05
know and you somebody said to me before
10:07
and I'm sure people have heard this like
10:09
you can't heal what you don't reveal
10:11
which is why I started talking about
10:12
stuff so yeah yeah uh that's beautiful
10:16
Eve it could be scary but when you come
10:18
out on other side you almost wish you
10:20
had done it
10:23
sooner um I want to talk about Queens
10:26
because right now nasty girl has over
10:28
two 2 million got a couple of million
10:31
more than two million views on the nasty
10:33

10:43
first of all congratulations on the
10:45
success of the
10:46
video right it's a true roll out just a
10:50
real roll out we were so nervous we were
10:52
so nervous before that video came out
10:54
all of us we were just and not because
10:55
we didn't think it was good we were
10:57
nervous because it was like yo this is
10:59
real this is about to happen like how
11:01
are people going to take it it's it's
11:03
blown up it's crazy like I don't even
11:06
know like it makes me so proud to be a
11:08
part of this show because this could
11:10
have gone a whole different way and
11:12
we've just done it so right or they've
11:13
done it right like the writers producers
11:15
obviously Swiss beats that song couldn't
11:17
it had to be fire because it's Swiss
11:19
Swiss beats um and yeah so yeah man
11:22
thank so shout out to everybody that's
11:23
watched this video that's just a tiny
11:26
taste of what you're going to see
11:27
tonight in this first episode 10 pm on
11:29
ABC uh Queens will Premiere tonight
11:33
and man shout out yo Brandy looked like
11:36
she was been ready to spit for years on
11:39
this
11:40
video you know what and I didn't know
11:43
this until because me and Brandy and I'm
11:44
loving that the fact that we have gotten
11:46
a chance to really hang out and get to
11:48
know each other she started rapping I
11:50
guess she was rapping while she was
11:51
singing But or started rapping after she
11:54
got successful singing and nobody really
11:56
wanted to mess with it but she you know
11:57
this is what she told me so this for her
12:00
is like and she's murdering it like
12:02
she's so dop
12:04
control
12:06
dope you bry's look she's SP did she who
12:10
wrote y'all did y'all write your own
12:12
bars or how did that work out no no so
12:14
the songs come fully done to us um Swiss
12:17
obviously does the Beats or whoever he
12:19
gets to you know um to collaborate or
12:21
whatever um seanc I know is a part of it
12:24
as
12:26
well name but um but yeah not songs come
12:29
fully formed to us they've just been so
12:32
perfect and the way that they write for
12:34
our characters is so perfect man like
12:38
literally and this is one song we've
12:40
done about five now so every episode
12:43
pretty much every episode you'll get a
12:44
new song they're all fire they're all
12:47
fire what I what I saw um when I watched
12:50
the video because it's so the the irony
12:53
of the plot is it's four people who were
12:56
hot in the 90s you know uh on top all
13:00
you guys are hot in the
13:01
90s you know at least towards the end of
13:04
the 90s at least new Millennial and and
13:07
and and now you know you guys are
13:09
bringing the band back together so it's
13:10
a little blur between reality and and
13:14
and fiction right this is actually
13:15
happening completely completely we would
13:18
be on set sometimes getting ready to
13:20
perform and be like why do I feel like
13:22
or we'll say why do we feel like we just
13:24
did like this is our life like and
13:26
especially with my character Briana um
13:28
Bri AKA Professor sex she's married with
13:32
five kids she you know it's like my
13:36
first week and a half on set I was like
13:38
yo I'm bugging out like how do I even
13:40
make this a character I feel like this
13:41
is my life like so um but yeah it's a
13:44
lot of parallels to but it's also I
13:47
think what makes when people watch it
13:49
what makes it so authentic because we
13:51
come from that time that was important
13:53
for us to bring you know our experiences
13:55
into this show
13:59
that's why even from watching the music
14:00
video I had to remind myself Yo Tracy
14:02
this is not Eve this is Professor sex
14:07
you know what I'm saying and I'm and I'm
14:09
wondering because just as sway pointed
14:11
out the it's so blurred which is a part
14:14
of like the magic that other shows
14:16
cannot have is it what on set at all was
14:20
did you ever feel triggered where like
14:23
um a particular storyline that's playing
14:25
out cuz there's a lot of drama in there
14:27
like took you back into time and
14:29
reminded you of a challenge that you had
14:32
to you know push forward through yeah
14:35
there I mean there's been a few things
14:37
that we've shot so far not so far in not
14:39
so much in this first episode but some
14:41
of the stuff that we've shot um when it
14:43
comes to our management like we have
14:45
some issues with our management which I
14:47
mean every artist could probably talk
14:48
about that um we've had some issues with
14:50
our label situation you know money
14:53
situation there's definite stuff in
14:55
there that we have set you know in
14:58
between takes and been like like damn I
14:59
went through this one of us has gone
15:01
through it at some point me Brandy orori
15:03
has gone through it like we shot an
15:04
episode where we did a cribs like NTV
15:07
cribs where it was a fake house and like
15:09
all that we rented this spot with all
15:11
these cars that actually happened to
15:12
nuturi when she was in 3lw so that was
15:15
like a real storyline that they took so
15:17
they're definitely pulling from our
15:20
lives and it's funny it is funny because
15:23
there like I said there have been days
15:24
we've been like yo this is nuts like
15:26
deja vu it's crazy I love it man is so
15:29
real and and I remember them days cuz I
15:32
I I had a home in La that a lot of the
15:34
labels were asking my partner King Tech
15:36
and I can we use your home for cribs and
15:38
we were like we don't we don't want to
15:39
be on Cribs they were like nah it's for
15:42
our
15:43
artists wow wow and I could name some of
15:47
those artists I didn't even I'm in the
15:49
business and I honestly didn't even I
15:51
don't I mean of course it makes sense
15:52
and of course I know but but in the
15:54
beginning of cribs I had no idea that
15:57
people was just renting out houses like
15:59
I had no idea so but that's the business
16:01
that's the business that's the business
16:03
I didn't either till they till they
16:05
asked to use the home I was like y'all
16:07
do that um right that's crazy Eve is
16:10
here uh big round of applause for us so
16:13
much so much to talk to her about what
16:17
has been
16:18
your and your observations being married
16:21
what has been the the key thread that
16:23
that you feel keep the glue together
16:25
keep the relationship together yeah it's
16:29
it's
16:30
definitely communication and respect
16:33
those two things there are like you
16:37
gotta keep each
16:39
other you've got to keep each other on
16:41
the same page because it's real easy I
16:44
think especially when you've been
16:45
together for a long time you get
16:46
complacent or you just get used to each
16:49
other you know you know each other's
16:50
stuff like you get up in the morning
16:52
good morning you come home whatever that
16:54
could get that could happen for longer
16:56
than you think and you just become
16:58
Strang you have to talk to each other
17:01
you have to respect each other's views
17:03
especially as you're growing um and you
17:05
got to let your partner know where you
17:07
are like people can't read your mind and
17:09
I used to think that that used to be my
17:11
problem like I used to be like well you
17:13
should just know I you should just know
17:15
it's like I'm walking around huffing and
17:17
puffing but it's like he's not psychic
17:19
like you know and vice versa so those
17:22
kinds of things I think that's so
17:23
important respect and communication I'm
17:25
writing this down eeve yeah as you
17:27
should k whatever
