grooming process I remember the man was
1:17
it the man cave on beat yep the man cave
1:20
on bet that's right I thought that that

1:27
that no we're not there you didn't sing
1:31
that answer that could have been a
1:32

1:39
shout out to Jeff Johnson slink co-sign
1:41

1:46
brother right there
1:48
tank ladies and gentlemen it's good to
1:50
see this brother man yeah you're one of
1:52
the most interesting people that do
1:54
podcasts like your variety is way
1:58
exceeds most of the people out here out
2:00
there we need it we needed the space
2:02
yeah we needed the space to have the r b
2:06
conversation yeah you know there are
2:08
there there are so many platforms
2:11
um you know for for hip-hop to be
2:14
expressed and
2:16
um for them to get their art form off
2:17
and we are just limited in our bandwidth
2:20
and so in creating the r b money podcast
2:24
it's like who better to have the r b
2:27
conversation than guys who are actually
2:29
actively doing it yes you know we we
2:32
always wait till we we're sent out to
2:34
pasture to try to figure out these new
2:36
nuances and these new ideas but I'm like
2:38
well our name means something while our
2:40
music means something while our voices
2:42
mean something like let's do this now
2:44
yeah so that the conversation we have
2:46
with r b artists writers and producers
2:48
it's different because we understand the
2:51
space they can talk to us differently
2:53
they can share differently you know what
2:54
I mean we can help differently we can
2:56
exchange differently and we can get that
2:57
information out there like people who
3:00
knew who knew about Ray Parker Jr like
3:02
really knew about it yeah
3:04
really knew that he let Stevie Wonder
3:06
Drive
3:07
who knew that he left Stevie Wonder let
3:10
Stevie Wonder drive his car his car who
3:14
knew that when he was underage
3:17
then Marvin Marvin Gaye said to him hey
3:20
uh get out of here take my car and go
3:22
somewhere
3:23
who knew that yeah one of the greatest
3:25
guitar session players of all times and
3:29
we never heard those stories you've
3:30
never heard those nerd the stories you
3:33
never understand the r b pedigree where
3:35
this guy comes from and he's necessary
3:37
to that conversation he's Rich very rich
3:40
very rich can I make a request yes for
3:43
someone I want you to get on there if
3:45
you haven't got them already Lionel

4:00
based uh pod segment okay 199 to hear
4:05
Lionel Richie talk that talk yeah we're
4:08
trying to get Babyface you know what I
4:11
mean we talked to Keith Sweat The Sweat
4:13
people don't understand the sweat people
4:15
don't understand the sweat is an owner
4:20
he's been an owner for quite some time
4:24
to Make It Last Forever the uh uh um I
4:29
want your body the nobody uh all those
4:33
reels
4:34
those reels are in his garage those two
4:37
inches
4:38
he owns those wow
4:42
he took this so any licensing anything
4:44
the owner wow but I think he's just
4:48
what's dope about you tank it just to
4:49
give you your flowers
4:51
um I've always respected you but then
4:54
learning so much more about you like
4:57
your PIN game impeccable thank you like
5:00
it takes a different skill set to be
5:01
able to do that I'm sorry like you can
5:04
sing a song that's cool you can write a
5:07
song that may be cool but to sing the
5:09
song you wrote in the way that you do it
5:11
and how you're able to write for other
5:13
people salute to you you are the perfect
5:16
person to be doing this podcast because
5:18
you have you you're that person too just
5:21
so you know that you're that person it
5:23
was a development process writing for
5:26
myself came easy
5:28
you know singing for myself came easy
5:30
yeah but writing for other people didn't
5:33
um
5:33
you know what I mean because I was I was
5:35
stuck trying to be me so I would always
5:38
give people me
5:40
okay it took a minute for me to
5:43
understand the science of or the science
5:46
that I wanted to have in order to create
5:48
for other people and so I got I started
5:52
getting out of myself and tried to
5:53
figure out how do I get into them okay
5:55
if an artist is coming in first let me
5:57
dive into their music let me understand
5:59
what they've talked about you know where
6:02
they where they've where they've shined
6:04
um where they don't shine the things
6:06
that they do well vocally the things
6:07
they can't what keys they can sing in
6:10
you know what I mean but then let me
6:13
have cut let's hop conversations like
6:15
they'll just walk in the studio and and
6:17
here's the song what you think yeah
6:20
because technically that song is not for
6:23
that artist it's just a song you made
6:24
maybe with the artist in mind right but
6:27
you didn't you didn't customize it like
6:29
because in order to customize something
6:31
like truly customized for someone you
6:33
got to get their measurements yes
6:36
like a seamstress
6:39
I gotta get your measurements I gotta
6:42
get shoulder to wrist shoulder to Elbow
6:43
then shoulder to wrists yes then the
6:45
full I didn't shoulders across like and
6:47
then your chest I got to get all of that
6:49
many details many details the
6:51
measurements may change they may change
6:53
Through The Years so now I have to sit
6:55
and I gotta build with you I gotta have
6:57
a conversation with you you know what
6:59
I'm saying like uh case in point sitting
7:01
talking with K Michelle K Michelle yes
7:04
when we were working on her album and
7:05
I'm like what's going on with you like
7:07
we just we the homies we just talk she's
7:08
like but he's you know he's
7:10
[ __ ] trying to tell me and I'm
7:11
telling you right now you [ __ ]
7:13
you got the right one today and I said
7:15
oh oh there it is
7:20
up with that
7:22
wow
7:25
very observant so you know what I've
7:27
always been wondering is if in recent
7:29
years songwriters have to sign ndas
7:31
because of that point you're sitting
7:33
down you're asking whoever is your
7:35
collaborator what's going on in your
7:36
life lately you know what I'm saying and
7:38
they may tell you some personal things
7:39
that TMZ would also love to hear is that
7:42
becoming a thing uh it's the first time
7:44
hearing that okay I could imagine
7:47
depending on the level of artists you're
7:49
working with you know what I'm saying
7:51
with Mariah Beyonce yeah
7:55
right up tank write a little bit about
7:57
that
7:59
relax
8:00
take that out you know what I'm saying
8:03
would you interview R Kelly
8:05
wow that guy he got quiet right here
8:11
no grounding wired right no satellite
8:14
static no I'm sorry Jake I don't know
8:22
your mind keeps telling you
8:26
I'll make some noise now
8:29
I'm only
8:34
only
8:37
be a podcaster now he know what to do
8:40
with it
8:40
[Music]
8:45
radio in in podcasting and all these
8:48
things right
8:49
um there's there's a space where you
8:52
have to understand you have to separate
8:55
you know sometimes your personal views
8:57
and understanding of a thing
8:59
um from how it could be perceived yes
9:01
you know what I'm saying on on on the
9:03
outer outside on the listener and the
9:05
people who don't totally get that part
9:07
and so some things you you you just kind
9:10
of have to stay away from just because
9:12
you have to yeah you know what I'm
9:13
saying like you know in in building a
9:16
brand you know like there's a saying
9:18
like don't let your good be evil spoken
9:20
of and when you start kind of murking
9:23
into that gray area where brands have an
9:26
opportunity to take things the wrong way
9:27
well then there goes your sponsorships
9:29
and fans have an opportunity to take
9:31
something the wrong way then there goes
9:34
your viewership there goes your you know
9:35
and so some things are just like
9:37
regardless of you know how we talk we
9:39
can talk off air about certain things
9:41
life and agree or disagree We can't
9:43
agree or disagree with those things oh
9:46
man Hey listen that's every day for us
9:49
yeah yeah for us at 50 of our
9:51
conversation don't can't make it on here
9:53
70. can't make 70.
9:56
you know that's why I have this here
10:00
oh you know
10:05
so let me ask you this um Chris Brown
10:08
who in my opinion too is a generation
10:11
you know staple generational staple his
10:15
work ethic is his talent his gifts his
10:18
performance it's electrifying has been
10:21
since day one his last project didn't do
10:23
as well as he thought it should right
10:25
and he voiced out about it why do you
10:28
think that is
10:29
I just think it's it's a sign of the
10:31
times okay I don't I don't think it's
10:33
him you know what I mean
10:35
um you know like we look at Beyonce
10:38
doing you know close to 300 000 you know
10:40
what I'm saying like Beyonce is for sure
10:42
uh a 600 you know what I'm saying yeah
10:46
that's what she does yeah and we're
10:49
noticing that you know the queen you
10:51
know what I'm saying of us is her
10:54
numbers are down as well so numbers are
10:57
just down you know what I mean I guess
10:59
the I don't you know the way people are
11:01
just consuming the music or you know
11:03
however this is happening they're just
11:05
they're just down you can't you you
11:07
can't totally explain it you just know
11:09
it's happening and you just try to make
11:11
the adjustment in in other areas you
11:14
know what I'm saying so let's say a a
11:16
Chris Brown album he beat he said it
11:18
does 80 000 the first week he's not
11:20
happy with the first week but you go out
11:22
on the road and you see 10 plus thousand
11:25
people show up every night every night
11:27
right so you have to then know okay I'm
11:31
I'm still him
11:33
okay this is the truth exactly that's
11:35
what's real it's what you see we have no
11:38
idea what's behind those dsps and how
11:41
they calculate streams and listen if I
11:43
own a DSP and the numbers are up I'm
11:45
going to probably try to curtail it too
11:47
you know because I got to pay out those
11:49
numbers there's always that question
11:52
about that do you feel let me ask you
11:55
about this because I've seen you go back
11:57
and forth and you know you you've been
11:59
very vocal you've been very open and
12:01
upfront about current state of music and
12:04
you got a hybrid singer that exists now
12:07
you got the hybrid singer Raptor for
12:09
sure that exists right now and and that
12:12
might be a little more accessible to
12:14
this current audience when it comes to
12:16
music uh can both exist easy okay speak
12:20
to it they should because because there
12:23
is
12:24
what could be considered an R B artist
12:25
and then there's an R B singer okay you
12:28
know what I'm saying which you which you
12:30
can get two totally different things
12:32
from yes in some respects
12:35
Drake is an R B singer no an RV artist
12:41
I'm an R B singer
12:43
you know what I'm saying and so
12:45
it's hard to figure out
12:47
how to separate that when we're when
12:50
we're when we're giving out Awards you
12:52
know what I mean or we're making
12:53
categories
12:55
um in radio and that type of thing
12:56
because we just we just it's new we've
12:58
never seen anything like Drake we've
13:00
never seen anything like young blue
13:01
we've never seen and then it gets even
13:03
more murky when you have rappers doing
13:06
Melody using autotune to do Melody and
13:09
also being emotional yeah so now are
13:12
they r b artists or at the moment they
13:16
they feel like they could be you know
13:18
what I'm saying I mean there's a lot of
13:20
guns and violence involved but at some
13:21
point the baby mama did them dirty yeah
13:23
yeah they always do that's rhythm and
13:26
blues that's the blues right there yeah
13:28
and so you know the the waters are just
13:31
the waters are just murky in terms of
13:33
figuring out how to how to separate
13:36
these things yeah you know which is
13:38
which makes it hard for us the R B
13:40
singer because
13:42
how do we fight for space you know what
13:44
I'm saying because right now
13:47
right now for for for black for a black
13:50
man entering into into music or into the
13:53
mainstream you know you know the drug
13:55
dealing and the violence and and then
13:57
the pimping like that's the thing that's
13:59
the thing you know what I'm saying so
14:01
how do as an R B singer that wants to
14:03
compete how do I sing that got my glock
14:07
in my pocket imma pull it
14:15
before you rob me
14:18
and this set becomes interesting wow
14:23
I was adding to it but so like well
14:27
listen them rappers don't sing as good
14:28
as I did right there but without the um
14:33
but it's like what do we where's the
14:36
happy medium you know what I'm saying
14:37
and so you know I think we're just R B
14:39
singers are just fighting for space and
14:42
I think in order to fight for that space
14:43
there just have to be more of us so why
14:46
why is this your final album because I
14:49
have to go recruit those R B singers
14:52
okay I gotta build the label I gotta I
14:55
gotta build the bridge I gotta build the
14:57
platform for the people coming after me
15:01
to be able to stand on you know what I
15:03
mean where's the r b Awards gotta build
15:06
that you understand what I'm saying
15:07
where are the r b festivals just well
15:10
you know three times a year there's
15:12
gonna be a big r b festival with pretty
15:14
much every R B artist you can think of
15:16
we gotta build that where's the r b
15:18
label where you know if you can't go to
15:20
any label and get a look as an R B
15:22
artist you know you can go here R B
15:24
Money
15:25
gotta build that gotta build that and I
15:27
need the time in order to do that you
15:29
know what I'm saying like they calling
15:30
me Denzel Jr Jr on the street you know
15:32
they've seen my lifetime my bet my my TV
15:35
one movies yeah you think really great
15:37
too I'm picking them spaces yeah you
15:39
understand what I'm saying I signed a
15:40
couple autographs you know I've done
15:41
that people recognize you know some
15:43
people recognize but in order to be the
15:45
actor that I want to be because I'm not
15:46
number one on the cost sheet I wanna be
15:48
though um
15:52
so that's why we up to his tenth and
15:55
final album r b money you had an
15:58
opportunity doing versus uh recent
16:00
recently to really really steal the show
16:03
yeah you know and I remember Ray J was
16:06
up there who else what's up there oh
16:07

though family yeah family they're like
18:27
they're like fighting Brothers yeah
18:29
it's interesting do you do you ever tell
18:31
your brother Tyrese because we we get to
18:34
and I only say this it's my little
18:36
brother because he gives it to the world
18:38
we get to go through the beginning in
18:40
the ending of all his relationships yeah
18:42
on Instagram I'd like him to stop
18:45
yeah yeah have you said that to him
18:49
you can only say so much to to my
18:51
brother Tyrese you know what I'm saying
18:53
and because he he's a Capricorn just
18:56
like me okay he has a reason you know
18:59
what I'm saying for everything and he
19:00
can articulate his reasons very well
19:03
very well yeah and and you know when
19:05
when a brother believes you know in his
19:08
calls that much
19:10
hey man just go ahead and rock but if if
19:13
it were me yes I would I would dial it
19:16
back
19:17
I would sound like a new movie for you
19:19
right there like the three heartbeats
19:23
I'm saying you trying to be one of the
19:26
coolest things
19:42
it would be hilarious
19:45
said I just I just you know I just don't
19:48
think everything is is for social media
19:51
and I think for my brother like he's
19:53
been through a lot
19:56
and to give to give opportunity for
19:59
people to pick and pry at that
20:02
information
20:04
um I think it's unhealthy okay you know
20:05
what I'm saying because you don't you
20:08
don't want to feed into the comment
20:09
section you know what I mean you don't
20:11
want to feed into you know to the
20:13
hearsay around on the blogs and and
20:15
radio and all that stuff but
20:16
unfortunately you do get wind of you
20:19
know some of those things and sometimes
20:20
you're like you know you don't want to
20:22
feel the way you do yeah
20:24
you just feel the way why are they
20:25
saying that I don't understand like
20:27
that's not even what I meant like you
20:29
just feed into it and so it can become
20:31
it can be unhealthy
20:33
um giving people too much information
20:36
um to to to formulate these weird
20:39
assumptions and opinions about you
20:40
because they don't care about you they
20:42
don't care they don't care about it they

26:23
to grow up man you don't own anything
26:25
exactly that's there you go that's the
26:28
learnable moment have you ever had to
26:31
apologize for your behavior and the way
26:34
you treated someone because your ego got
26:37
the best of you um to many women in my
26:40
life
26:41
many women where does your ego like to
26:44
run wild what advice I mean just
26:46
sometimes as men you just feel like
26:49
your perspective is the only perspective
26:51
that matters yeah you know what I mean
26:53
you should be able to have your cake and
26:55
eat it too you're the authority I'm the
26:57
authority
26:59
you understand what I'm saying when you
27:00
see them lights just came on you know
27:02
what I'm saying you know who was under
27:02
them lights when they came home it was
27:04
me
27:05
feel me and you heard them screams yeah
27:07
you see that you see that car we just

27:13
whatever come with that you need to be
27:15
okay with that right yeah that ain't it
27:17
that ain't it yeah it's another form of
27:19
slavery
27:20
[Laughter]
27:27
oh my God let me make this the last one
27:30
please
27:34
has there ever been something sexually
27:37
intimate you were asked to do
27:40
but turn down yeah damn
27:47

27:49
I I will say that anything shared you
27:52
know because you know I'm I'm
27:53
heterosexual yeah anything shared
27:55
between a man and a woman is in the
27:57
heterosexual space right but I believe
27:59
once you get into
28:02
um into penetration you you are you are
28:04
going into a space that I feel you know
28:08
what I'm saying for what I do what I
28:09
believe in is unnatural for me you know
28:12
what I'm saying so no utensils you know
28:14
what I'm saying not for me not no
28:16
utensils no no okay like your your
28:18
fingers will form over utensil like you
28:20
eat with that don't don't do don't use
28:21
that okay so you put those put your
28:23
hands behind your back like you buy them

for apples yeah that's how you you know
28:27
that's how you do you put your hands

28:30
behind her back because I don't want no

34:00
off the mic conversations and I was
34:03
saying the tank said it says how
34:04
wonderful it is to have these
34:06
conversations it's been consistent
34:07
throughout the years I know personally
34:09
it's because there's something personal
34:11
between us you know what I mean like
34:12
it's it's more of a Brotherhood than um
34:15
a work relationship at least for me
34:16
right uh now and so who are some of
34:20
those like what did you learn this
34:22
ability to sustain to reinvent to be
34:25
here for so long your personality is
34:28
infectious I've never seen you in an
34:30
environment that you didn't seem
34:31
comfortable I've seen you do interviews
34:33
on many platforms and it's always been
34:35
steady how did you learn this
34:38
um a couple things right you know for me
34:41
the truth always the truth worked for me
34:43
you know that was you know that was the
34:45
thing that
34:47
um kind of set me apart you know my
34:49
truth and just being authentically who I
34:51
am
34:52
you know that was my first hit record
34:54
that was my first moment in the business
34:55
I was like okay I'm allowed to be myself
34:57
now figuring out how to express that and
34:59
being able to share that energy
35:02
um in a room in an interview
35:04
um all of those things like getting
35:06
really really good at it you know I'm
35:07
saying I studied a guy by the name of
35:09
Jamie Foxx Jamie Foxx who is just come
35:12
on listen who can work
35:16
when I say work a room I'm talking about
35:21
I'm talking about the kind of energy
35:23
where like everybody's there to see him
35:26
but somehow he makes everybody in that
35:31
room feel like he's there to see them
35:33
wow what a way to put that wow I'm in a
35:37
party one night at you know on the Van
35:39
Alden house one of the the the the real
35:41
you know parties all ball parties wait a
35:44
minute when he lived on Van noodles yeah
35:46
yeah I live on Topeka okay okay
35:51
you've seen it with us we're Whispering
35:54
now
35:55
I'm gonna jump out of it
36:00
so I met I met Jamie's house and I'm
36:03
young I'm just you know just kind of
36:04
connecting with him and just kind of
36:05
seeing all of this and there's so much
36:07
happening there's so many stars in the
36:10
building you know what I mean there are
36:11
just prominent people in this place I
36:13
mean some of the most beautiful women
36:15
you know you've ever seen and you know
36:17
and you know it's Jamie Foxx you know
36:18
what I'm saying you know a lot of these
36:19
women that are there to see him have
36:21
probably seen him before you know what I
36:23
mean and it's it's it's a room it's a
36:26
pool it's a backyard full of them and I
36:28
watched him go
36:29
from person to person
36:32
female to female oh my God it's so good
36:34
to see you look at what you got on okay
36:36
I'll see you all right I'll be right
36:38
back I'm going girl what how you just
36:41
getting here you don't miss the whole
36:42
thing I think I called you I watched him
36:46
every person in the room and I'm like
36:48
he's magic because
36:51
if anybody was there to claim him right
36:55
because within that there is a there's a
36:57
sense of ownership you know what I'm
36:58
saying he uh he called me over here he
37:02
you you didn't feel slighted yeah it
37:05
didn't feel like he was choosing one
37:07
person over the other he made everybody
37:09
feel amazing you know how there's a VIP
37:11
and there's a rope in front of the VIP
37:13
right well there were no ropes at
37:15
Jamie's house inclusive everybody was
37:18
VIP so as I watched this happen I'm like
37:20
this is amazing how does he do this I go
37:23
back into the studio and and my guy
37:25
Mateo plays the track and I'm like
37:27
everybody in my pot
37:30
VIP
37:32
we're gonna sit Patrol free
37:35
United of ecstasies on me
37:39
let these people in cause everybody wow
37:43
and that's how I wrote that song wow
37:45
damn wow wow from watching that and
37:49
learning that
37:51
and so now it's it ain't a room I can't
37:53
walk in and feel comfortable with it and
37:55
Jamie would do this in a black room a
37:57
white room a mixed room don't matter the
37:59
room yeah
38:01
whoever all over the world
38:05
I'm trying to think I saw him in a round
38:07
table discussion would have looked like
38:08
a bunch of Oscar winners wow you know
38:11
like Leading Men and he started telling
38:14
a story you know about working on Django
38:17
the Unchained and the way he I think it
38:19
was Robert De Niro it was Leo it was all
38:22
DiCaprio all these different whoever was
38:24
in that conversation and what I noticed
38:26
is how all of those men who I believe
38:30
all were white men too uh marveled yeah
38:34
at him yeah he's he's a different kind
38:37
of talent he's a different guy he's the
38:40
greatest entertainer of all times like
38:43
people are people you know you can be a
38:45
jack of all trades and a master of
38:47
nothing right yeah
38:49
he's been awarded
38:52
at the highest level
38:53
in every form of entertainment
38:56
