like when people come here in freestyle

2:53
they make it look like it's coming off
2:54
the top real quick it's not all the time

like wild and out it's about writing
2:59
it's about being like a we always say

10:02
from there like one day I'm going to do
10:04
a movie about my life like it's it's
10:06
like really crazy like I I started early
10:08
early just like I knew what I wanted to
10:10
do like I'm sitting in class like I knew
10:12
that this was going to be my destiny you
10:15
know what I'm saying and where I come
10:16
from I come from Jacksonville I don't
10:18
know if y'all ever been to Jacksonville
10:19
Jacksonville but it's gutter you know
10:21
what I'm saying so it's like you know in
10:22
Atlanta when people grow up in Atlanta
10:24
they see people in nice luxury cars or
10:26
you see other artists that have made it
10:29
it was never that where you know I came
10:31
from like the city you know so seeing
10:32
the people that come out of my city we
10:35
like everybody deserve it if you work
10:36
for it but it's like I ain't know nobody
10:38
famous that could put me on like I mean
10:40
I never I never slept my way to the top
10:42
I never did anything or compromis myself
10:44
and I knock people who do that cuz if
10:46
you need to do that then do what you do
10:48
you know what I'm saying but I knew I
10:49
have to do that I knew eventually like I
10:51
would get here on my talent and my
10:52
prayers you know so I love it I love
10:55
that man come on on our talent and
10:57
prayer I love it I I I want to actually
11:00
jump in on that because it's interesting
11:02
to me I've been to Jacksonville and I've
11:04
been to Lincoln Nebraska uh to the
11:06
school to the University of Nebraska and
11:09
for you two to be from these opposite
11:11
ends of the Earth but both so focused
11:14
like on what you wanted to do your
11:15
destiny and your dream I think it's
11:17
beautiful I also think very early on in
11:19
life decision making is very important
11:22
um how what was your circles like um you
11:25
know just coming up and telling your
11:27
friends you know I want to do this I
11:29
want to do that we always laugh here cuz
11:31
I got the name Heather be cuz in high
11:33
school I would say I'mma Be famous I'mma
11:35
Be This I'mma Be that so my best friend
11:37
started calling me Heather be and she
11:39
supported me all the way through what
11:41
was y'all circles like you know coming
11:43
from these basically obscure places at
11:45
the time I think coming from a place
11:48
where nobody's doing nothing it don't
11:49
matter what you're doing cuz you going
11:50
to believe in yourself cuz like I'm not
11:52
getting inspired by nobody but myself
11:54
and the things I'm gen z i was you know
11:56
I'm young [ __ ] so like I feel like the
11:59
interet the definition
12:01
of I feel like the internet raised me
12:05
like really the internet raised me I
12:06
learned about hip-hop on the internet I
12:08
learned about you know even when even
12:10
when Tumblr was around like I was
12:12
piecing together what the world was and
12:14
what culture was through my own research
12:16
I come from African immigrant family
12:18
like my mama didn't know nothing like
12:20
about American culture and Black Culture
12:22
so I had to piece it together I found
12:25
Patrice O'Neal on YouTube and that
12:27
changed my whole life and understanding
12:29
of comedy and what I wanted to do and
12:31
who I wanted to be it was just me by
12:33
myself in my room watching Dave
12:35
Chappelle DVD sets and like trying to
12:37
figure out like okay I see he talking
12:40
about this and talking about that I just
12:41
got to say it from my point of view as a
12:43
young black girl and I can I could I
12:45
could be just as funny like I could
12:46
figure it out and then I I actually
12:49
started a lot of Comedy things in
12:50
Lincoln because there wasn't a lot going
12:52
on there was one comedy night I played
12:54
that out I went to that every week and
12:56
then I would drive three hours to De Mo
12:58
to go do 5 minutes damn two one hour to
13:01
Omaha to go do 5 minutes sometimes we go
13:03
6 hours to Colorado to try to get a
13:05
10minute set like they're just wasn't a
13:07
lot of motion like comedy at all so
13:11
because it was it was Desert it was
13:12
dried like I wasn't scared there was
13:15
nobody telling me I couldn't do it I'm
13:16
like y'all not doing nothing so I like
13:19
that man I think mine came from trying
13:22
to prove people wrong you know um just
13:26
people saying or thinking that I
13:27
couldn't do it
13:29
and I remember I be in class or like how
13:33
I used to dress like how I dress now but
13:35
I'm I'm putting it together with what I
13:36
got th and people like oh she tacky she
13:38
can't dress I'm like this gonna be the
13:40
it's gonna be that you know I'm saying
13:43
so I think just like continuing to push
13:46
forward when nobody like believed and
13:49
everybody stopped because you know you
13:50
have friends that pursue the same things
13:52
and then they fall off cuz it's they
13:54
just doing it cuz it's just the thing to
13:55
do at the time you know it's not really
13:57
a passion for them but I mean I always
14:00
felt like I was going to be a rich [ __ ]
14:02
you know what I'm saying I was broke you
14:04
know what I'm saying but you know we
14:05
came from Beginnings but I always felt
14:07
like I wanted to live a certain way and
14:08
I knew what it took to get that you know
14:11
so um I think people doubted me even
14:14
like my dad like my dad was like why you
14:16
why you always watching music videos
14:18
when I when I did get an opportunity to
14:20
meet my dad and um he was like why you
14:22
always watching music I was like I want
14:23
to I want to look and see how my videos
14:25
going to be when I you know what I'm
14:26
saying when I do my videos he was like
14:28
you ain't never going to do that you
14:29
know your mama tried it and you went you
14:30
know so that wow yeah so that that
14:33
pushed me to like to prove wrong you
14:36
know what I'm saying so I feel like when
14:38
I when people see me walking across
14:39
those stages now winning I'm winning for
14:42
my whole city I'm winning for people who
14:44
stop and and you know they couldn't push
14:47
forward because sometimes when you don't
14:48
have a a support system that makes it
14:50
even harder for you to like continue to
14:52
going to continue to keep going but my
14:55
win for everybody there you
14:57
go yeah did your dad take those wins too
15:01
thank you he um facts I don't know yeah
15:05
I feel like my character Mia like we had
15:08
one conversation like most recently and
15:11
I feel like he's getting to know me as a
15:12
person through my character it's it's
15:15
strange it's weird it's weird give him
15:17

15:21

15:25
come on cool I'm taking care of there it
15:27
is chameleon man I love man come on rap
15:30
[ __ ]
15:31
season rap [ __ ] season two okay Tracy
15:34
you want to jump in oh my gosh I would
15:36
be honored to because y'all are not just
15:38
beautiful women you guys are powerful
15:41
women and it can be heard it can be felt
15:44
I'm wondering if you guys can give an
15:47
example of what how you polish all of
15:52
your many talents currently like the
15:54
schedule that you guys keep like um you
15:57
know when you do carve out some time
15:59
what does it look like because aah when
16:01
you mentioned being gen Z so many of us
16:04
are addicted to these phones and because
16:07
we use social media as a form of work
16:09
but also use social media as a form of
16:10
leisure you can just get caught up in a
16:13
cycle of distraction and then hours have
16:15
gone by and you didn't stay on schedule
16:17
of whatever you said you was going to
16:19
practice right so what does it look like
16:22
for you guys right now currently as
16:24
young adults practicing your writing
16:27
practicing your bars just getting your
16:29
craft polished what's the process yeah
16:31
I'm still learning to balance and
16:33
honesty um like I stopped rapping and
16:37
doing music once I picked up once I got
16:40
nominated for this award this Spirit
16:41
award and I was like dang I've been
16:43
doing music so long I never really got
16:46
recognized or felt like I was
16:47
appreciated in this first year I'm a in
16:50
as a lead a leading lady I'm getting
16:52
nominated and somebody around me they
16:54
was like I don't know who in your team
16:56
but I want you to know that this is like
16:58
I know you posted about it one time but
17:00
this is like this is big you know what
17:02
I'm saying so you really need to really
17:05
refocus yourself and consider like
17:07
taking it a little bit more seriously
17:10
and um you know it's crazy because I'm
17:12
I'm here on this show and my goals kind
17:15
of have shifted so it's like even though
17:18
I'm dropping music now just kind of
17:19
learning to balance and having fun with
17:21
it I have I'm really not trying to like
17:24
go crazy I'm just having fun I'm
17:26
traveling I'm learning new things and
17:29
like you said I'm giving myself Grace
17:31
like so this is all new for for me and
17:33
for Ida but I haven't mastered the [ __ ]
17:35
yet but I think I think it's like a
17:37
beautiful like chaos you know what I'm
17:39
saying do you write spontaneously like
17:41
does the does the idea come to you or do
17:44
you carve out time like early in the
17:45
morning and before you go to bed to do
17:47
your writing it's really random how it
17:49
it'll come to me like I I hear a beat I
17:52
hop in the booth sometimes it might not
17:54
work like that I might have to go
17:56
experience something so I have a fake
17:57
relationship [ __ ] with a [ __ ] you know
18:00
I'm you could be I allow myself to have
18:03
a broken heart cuz I already know what
18:05

23:01
question about the show I need epis I do

23:10
you guys went to a function called
23:12

23:23
umit wait wait wait wait I'm stop
23:28

hearing this I didn't know he wrote on

the show well he was starting the show I

26:13
you yeah um I had a question for you
26:16
ladies um one congratulations on the
26:18
success um I've been really intrigued
26:20
because I come from a small town as well
26:22
Atlantic Michigan and so I love Yeah St
26:26
not not me acting like shaa straight up
26:27
right here
26:29
yes no I love that so I'm always really
26:32
excited when people come up here who
26:34
have success with come from small towns
26:36
um I know you told your story about your
26:38
experience in a small town but if you
26:40
could for listeners who are out there
26:41
who also to live in small towns that are
26:44
very far removed from like New York City
26:46
and LA what tools would you give them in
26:49
terms of following their dreams like
26:51
what was your first step that you guys
26:53
did in order to get to where you are
26:55
like what was your first Reach Out
26:58
uh while you were in Lincoln and while
26:59
you were in Deval that allowed you these
27:02
to get these platforms now I think um
27:04
the first step I think you just got and
27:06
I said this to my best friend last night
27:08
when we was talking like you got to be
27:10
willing to make the sacrifice like when
27:13
you get that dream or whatever the
27:15
passion that you want to do you might
27:17
not have the money to chase it but you
27:19
have the right idea and you have to if
27:23
if the opportunity is in the next city
27:25
go to the next city exactly got a pocket
27:28
full of money and none
27:30
because the the the the universe is
27:32
going to make it possible for you as
27:34
long as the will is there and you're
27:35
willing to do it it it'll it'll work
27:38
itself out you know what I'm saying um I
27:41
just think whatever it is that you going
27:42
to sacrifice just do it hop out there
27:45
believe that you are the star that you
27:47
are in your heart walk it talk it and
27:50
make other people feel what you doing
27:51
and then you got to put time into your
27:53
craft like you got to perfect your craft
27:56
you know a lot of people that out our
27:57
rappers they like I'm the best rapper
27:59
like show us [ __ ] stop talking stop
28:02
talking that [ __ ] want to hear that [ __ ]
28:04
to me it's like I always have believed
28:07
it's really easy to look up but you're
28:09
supposed to look across and you're
28:11
supposed to look at the city that you
28:13
from and find Talent there and tapping
28:14
with the community with the Internet is
28:16
so easy and even to your question
28:18
earlier like it's so easy to be like
28:20
well why am I not Coco Jones yet [ __ ]
28:23
you haven't worked as hard as Coco Jones
28:25
Coco Jones tapped in with her people and
28:27
then grew this thing over years and
28:28
years and years so that's why for me I
28:30
did comedy where I was from with the
28:32
people that was there even if sometimes
28:34
it was like white people who we didn't
28:36
get each other's jokes we didn't get
28:37
each other's things but that made me
28:39
colder cuz I had to I had to really
28:41
refine myself and who I was so it's okay
28:44
that you from a small town I use that as
28:45
fuel for me when I'm feeling uninspired
28:48
I go back to Nebraska and I just sit
28:49
there in my room and be like how the
28:51
hell do I get out of here that's where I
28:52
record most of my music in in
28:53
Jacksonville in jackonville even I live
28:55
in LA now I go back to the trenches cuz
28:58
that's where I get my
28:59
most exper you know experience from and
29:02
just the vibe the vibe is just what it
29:04
is you know give you that inspiration
29:05
give that inspiration and make content
29:07
like it's easy to just pick up the phone
29:09
and like record yourself doing you you
29:11
know what I'm saying and you ain't got
29:12
to travel if you ain't got the money
29:13
your passport is the internet on
29:16
internet I came up on Twitter like I
29:17
told myself okay if I want to be a
29:19
writer I got to be funny on Twitter got
29:21
consistently you got to do it all the
29:22
time like on my come up I used to I used
29:25
to do freestyle videos like about three
29:27
four times a week like just posting
29:29
posting like somebody going to see this
29:30
in the car like somebody going to see it
29:32
so you just got to be willing to put
29:33
yourself out there that's how women was
29:36
coming up too I remember Meg's freestyle
29:37
hanging out the car like that was the
29:39
thing go to the gas station they got
29:41
great lighting go over there like make a
29:43
video go to the gas station they have
29:46
great
29:47
lighting out there it's the LED lights
29:51
light the gas station is they they right
29:53
it ain't no shortcuts right and people
29:55
think cuz the internet or social media
29:58
make you think it's a shortcut because
29:59
you just see it somebody for the first
30:01
time and they're already popping right
30:03
but there's no shortcuts all there are
30:05
shortcuts for certain people certain
30:07
people get lucky that's just like
30:07
winning the the lotto like you know it
30:10
happens you know but for people who
30:13
really want it and really have certain
30:15
talents that they really want to you
30:16
know portray or be seen by the world
30:18
it's not it's not that easy unless
30:20
somebody's saying okay you're going to
30:21
be my artist I'm going to write your
30:22
songs I'm going to do this for you
30:24
exactly and who want to do that for
30:25
anybody like you're definition of
30:28
success will change every year too for
30:31
you like facts like success is internal
30:34
it's like an internal thing it's not an
30:36
external thing so you don't need
30:37
approval from others you're supposed to
30:38
feel good about what you're doing
30:39
whether like my first shows was in
30:41
bookstores in the back of restaurants
30:42
with two people watching me and not
30:45
laughing like really eating the [ __ ] out
30:47
they
30:48
sandwich really really so it's just
30:50
about you know it's really about feeling
30:53
good about what you doing not about
30:54
who's telling you what's good just as a
30:56
comment you you guys have said something
30:58
I haven't heard before um when people's
31:00
Journeys to the next level is honing in
31:03
on your skills in the hometown you're in
31:05
like you working the system in Lincoln
31:07
you working the system in Duval you guys
31:10
honed in Duval sorry you guys honed in
31:12
on your skills in the mayor the mayor
31:14
right here corrected us been checked um
31:18
holding your skills there and then be
31:20
ready to jump to the city where you are
31:22
that part gets left out and you can hold
31:24
your skills while you're still living
31:25
with your parents or ET not having to
31:27
pay too much rent Etc but I think that's
