happen this is co that album is the
5:36
birth of Fresh album that did that
5:37
during Co okay and that's how I met my
5:39
brother ER seven okay but during Co I
5:42

5:44
songs and just hitting people up M and
5:47
see if they wanted to work and those
5:48
Brothers was down to work they were down
5:51
to work I'm curious for you because in
5:53
that song you talk about um you say
5:55
something like my
5:57
light is still
6:00
my light is still bright even though I
6:02
have people attacking me left and right
6:04
you say something like that in that that
6:06
lyric oh yeah that was who were
6:09
attacking you I ain't even G to say I
6:11
was just going through it you know just
6:14
some some grown ass stuff just going
6:15

6:17
was around the time of my divorce and
6:19
all that I was married for about 15
6:21
years so okay okay so yeah yeah I don't
6:24
even want to get into that but it was
6:25
that stuff it was that stuff but but
6:27
it's interesting how that stuff yeah you
6:29
needed to write about it though it had
6:31
to come out in some type of way or form
6:33
and and that's good you know um any way
6:36
an artist can express themselves in a
6:38
positive way I mean he didn't go deep
6:40
deep deep into it but you got to touch
6:42
on it it definitely has to affect you as
6:44
an artist and as a person as well after
6:47
15 years I'm always curious that that
6:50
long with someone how do people decide
6:53
divorce you know after 15 years with
6:55
somebody but I'm glad you found a way to
6:57
put it in your music yeah and there's a
6:59
song on that album the breath of fresh a
7:01
album called what love is so if you

9:20
to listen to that album all the time
9:23
that ain't he urge that ain't he thank
9:27
you respect dude yeah but uh I recorded
9:31
what he said he he gave a message to my
9:33
daughters actually what did he say
9:34
telling them to don't worry about
9:38
looking outside of yourself he was
9:40
telling them to to pay attention to who
9:42
they are and just continue to shine
9:44
bright as an individual don't worry
9:46
about chasing this that and the other
9:48
just do what you got to do and you're
9:49
going to you know manifest what you need
9:51
to manifest along those lines that's
9:54
interesting because early this morning
9:56
sway torch and I were having a
9:58
conversation about the father and
9:59
daughter Dynamic you know and how
10:02
important that it is sway was like you
10:04
know I don't think people realize how
10:08
girls need their fathers women need
10:10
their fathers but as an artist yourself
10:13
how do you kind of Juggle all of that
10:15
because you do have shows you do have to
10:17
spend time writing I'm not sure if you
10:19
do a job you know quote unquote N9 to5
10:22
um in the midst of all that how do you
10:25
parent in the midst of that as well even
10:27
though they they're young teenagers and
10:29
young adults now um I just I just make
10:32
it happen cuz I'm actually a
10:34
construction work in a welder so I do
10:37
that I do music and I'm there with them
10:40
so I try to incorporate them in the
10:42
things that I do I take them to shows
10:45
and I like to just give them their
10:47
specific time cuz during that whole
10:49
situation that I went through that's
10:51
when I really learn how to to listen to
10:54
women they keep stressing listen I don't
10:56
need you to solve everything just listen
10:59
MH so I learned that and that's what I
11:01
do with my daughters I just listen to
11:02
them let them cry on my shoulder take
11:05
them where they want to take them I mean
11:07
you know what I'm saying just yeah I'm
11:09
just there that's all I can say I'm just
11:11
there I like that too John T you agree
11:13
with that that men should just learn how
11:15
to listen to women definitely yeah okay
11:18
way to way to put
11:20
in no it might I add vice versa it's a
11:23
two-way street right we have to listen
11:25
to men as well I mean you guys have that
11:27
was part of the conversation this
11:29
morning this is true listening right
11:31
yeah uh some of my strongest DEC best
11:33
decisions I made in relationships not
11:35
just intimate ones professional so on
11:38
and so forth we get people think we get
11:40
paid to talk but when you become a
11:43
master of it you're really getting paid
11:45
to listen amen right you know and
11:48
sometimes that what you don't say is
11:49
more powerful than what you're trying to
11:51
say yeah right what are you trying to
11:53
say now when you say natural
11:56
intelligence what is the difference
11:57
between is it is that a knock on AI no
12:01
no well kind of yeah okay all right kind
12:05
of cuz back in the 90s you remember this
12:08
I was on my spiritual enlightenment
12:11
thing you know how everybody's all wok
12:13
and stuff nowadays well I was going
12:14
through that and what 93 94 94 he showed
12:18
up at me and King Tech house okay he he
12:21
you brought it up I wasn't going to
12:22
bring it up man he was on a spiritual
12:25
journey cornbread was on a spiritual
12:27
Jour kind of like what buddy was talking
12:28
about bu what buddy was talking about in
12:32
his spiritual journey he decided that he
12:35
didn't need to eat solid foods he was
12:38
going to live off the sun rays and water
12:40
alone so he came to our
12:44
house and for like seven days he's at ke
12:47
Tech in my house and every day Tech get
12:49
hey dude is he okay are we going to have
12:51
to call our ambulance I was like n let
12:54
him go through it you know what though I
12:57
felt so alive during that time you said
13:00
this I felt so I could everything was
13:03
clear it was like I had foresight Beyond
13:07
foresight which brings me to this I I
13:10
looked at artificial intelligence is
13:13
fake intelligence so natural
13:15
intelligence is real intelligence it's
13:17
what we all have within us anyway so
13:20
everything that the computers are doing
13:22
and this artificial stuff is doing is
13:24
what we naturally can do we just haven't
13:27
been we just haven't been utilizing our
13:30
brains because we're looking outside of
13:32
oursel all the time but once we stop and
13:34
look
13:35
within it's so much that we can can
13:38
develop mentally and I think that's what
13:41
it's all about you know what I mean yeah
13:44
yeah a lot coming together mentally
13:46
being on one common
13:48
cord so what do you think I want to get
13:51
back to the fainting because I don't
13:52
know if you fainted or not when you was
13:54
that way in the M saw this dude man it
13:57
was how many days without I can't
14:00
remember I
14:01
do I remember because Sean cornbread is
14:05
like my little brother I'm just total
14:06
transparency I might I think I'm hard on
14:09
him like a big brother I have been but
14:10
now we're grown ass
14:12
men could joke about it like he's like a
14:14
big brother to me now so it just water
14:16
and Sun water and Sun I didn't I didn't
14:19
trust nothing he didn't eat nothing I
14:21
didn't I didn't trust for how many days
14:23
I recall about
14:25
seven and by the fourth one Adrian this
14:28
is at the the the tarzanna house he's at
14:30
the Tarzan house eating
14:33
sunrays like I felt good Yogi when did
14:36
you crack like when did you just say I
14:38
need a a peanut butter and jelly
14:40
sandwich something I mean let's let's
14:43
keep it on
14:45
Buck you had the crack I mean I would I
14:48
was into juicing back then got it yeah
14:51
so I you know drink the celery juices
14:53
and all that type of stuff but it wasn't
14:55
until I became a construction worker
14:57
that I was like all right I need to God
14:59
you need some strength on you I need to
15:01
eat yeah them jackhammers weigh what 110
15:03
PBS yeah so I had to put that muscle
15:06
back he see his guns now that that ain't
15:09
from
15:10
Sunray n lot of meat in that body one
15:13
thing I realized at that point too in my
15:15
life you could be spiritual but you
15:18
could take things too far I didn't want
15:20
to I was becoming a spirit you know you
15:22
see what I'm saying yeah so everything
15:24
is a balance so now my life is balance
15:26
yeah yeah yeah yeah all right cool man
15:28
we going come back we got cornbread is
15:30
here the new album is natural
15:31
intelligence tell me about this coin you
15:34
have right so cool all right I make
15:35
these myself
15:37
right I was hold them up while you talk
15:39
so you got a camera on you you know all
15:41
right so you know you know you hear
15:43
about people in their complains about
15:46
Spotify and all this stuff taking
15:47
people's monies and whatnot I don't want
15:49
to complain so I'm like all right
15:51
whatever if if that's what's happening
15:52
we need to bring it back to like I
15:54
remember the '90s we were selling CDs
15:56
and stuff like that this generation
15:59
doesn't have that experience but
16:00
everybody's on their phone doing this
16:02
mhm so I wanted to give people the the
16:04
experience we had of going hand in hand
16:06
but you can still scan it and do the
16:09
technology so it's old school and new
16:11
school together it's a hybrid right and
16:14
so the only but the only place people
16:16
could get your album is how on the coin
16:19
it's it's not online it's not none of
16:20
that it's it's private so once you scan
16:23
it it's a private site just for you so
16:26
people have to be you have to hand them
16:28
the coin or they could go to your
16:29
