1:28
Another morning you're not calling. I
1:32
still don't have answers.
1:34
My body's eroding from all the emotions
1:38
and I feel like cancer.
1:42
You say you're protecting yourself, but
1:44
why does it feel so selfish?
1:49
You're hot, then you're cold. You stop,
1:52
then you go. It's unhealthy.
1:56
You know that I
1:59
would walk a million miles to see
2:03
your face, but you're pushing me away.
2:08
You can't love me with one foot in and
2:10
one foot out.
2:12
You can't love me. You can't love me
2:16
with one foot in and one foot out.
2:19
You can love me. You can love me with
2:23
one foot in and one foot out. I know you
2:26
can hold me, but can you hold me down?
2:31
When [ __ ] hits the fan or there's a
2:33
change in your plan, next thing you know
2:35
you're trying to skip town.
2:39
I can tell that something's off.
2:43
That girl's going, going, gone. Are we
2:46
for the long haul or just a moment? Do
2:48
you love me? You need to know
2:52
one foot in one foot out. You can love
2:55
me. You can love me. With one foot in,
3:00
one foot out. You can love me. You can
3:04
love me.
3:06
One foot in one foot.
3:11
Hey. Oh yeah. One foot in one foot.
3:16
Oh,
3:20
one foot in and one foot out. You made
3:23
all my folks this the life you chose.
3:26
And now you trying to leave somebody.
3:29
Catch a B toe. If you love, let it go.
3:33
But it's hard when you need somebody. So
3:36
if you
3:38
if you're really on the fence,
3:42
you just got to be honest.
3:45
Cuz I'm sick of all this nonsense.
3:48
One foot in, one foot out.
3:55
One foot in, one foot out. How can you
3:58
love me?
4:01
Now one put in, one foot out. I can't do
4:06
this. I'm nervous.
4:10
All is confusing. You're delusing the
4:14
French driving me insane.
4:18
You got one foot in one foot out. Well,
4:20
I've been told down. You keep running
4:23
away. Yeah. Catch your body by the toe.
4:27
If you love, let it go. But it's hard
4:30
when you need somebody.
4:34
Wow. Wow.
4:35
Thank you.

6:53
champagne shower. So don't worry about
6:56
her.
6:58
She's
7:01
just a friend.
7:04
Please understand.
7:08
We've been through this before. This is
7:10
how it's going to be.
7:16
afraid of a friend
7:20
saying you won't believe there were days
7:23
you never even
7:31
that's all she is she's just a friend
7:35
[Music]
7:36
she's just a friend
7:39
I said she's just a
7:42
[Music]
7:46
I won't tell you again.
7:51
[Music]
7:52
She ain't nothing but a friend of a
7:55
friend of a friend. We going to do this
7:57
again and again and again. So go ahead
8:00
and talk your [ __ ] and say you done with
8:02

8:05
know just how it's going to be. She
8:06
ain't nothing but friend of a friend of
8:09
a friend. Oh,
8:14
so go ahead and talk your [ __ ] and say
8:16
you done with me.
8:20
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
8:22
Okay, guys. This next song is called
8:24
Strong Enough. This is one of my
8:25
favorites on the album. Uh, I'm I'm
8:28
super inspired by R&B artists, you know
8:30
what I mean? Casey, Jojo, Boys to Men.
8:34
Um, so this is kind of like that vibe. I
8:36
wanted to honor them with this. So,
8:38
let's get into it. It's hard being an
8:39
R&B artist, man, and keeping a
8:41
relationship. It's not easy.
8:42
You gotta write about it.
8:45
You gotta write about it.
8:46
Should make a breakup album about it.
8:49
Hey, I think so. I think so. I think I
8:50
should do that. It's a good idea.
8:52
Let's go. Let's go.
8:56
[Music]
8:59
I know you've been put through the
9:02
ringer,
9:03
but I'm proud of us and how much we've
9:05
grown.
9:07
You said that you should never date a
9:09
singer. Would you hear me singing like
9:12
to see you couldn't leave me alone. I
9:15
know what the comments do to your mind.
9:17
You shouldn't read them. I'm ready to do
9:20
with your time. Like support me. I need
9:22
it. You know what you signed up for. And
9:24
we came with the territory. And now you
9:27
can't take no. Same old story. And I
9:30
don't like the ending. I thought we were
9:32
drunk.
9:34
If we lost count, then we start hanging
9:37
back.
9:41
Long enough. Now I just sit around and
9:44
think about me and you out on tour. All
9:47
them days I had to spend without you.
9:50
Staying up past four, waiting for my car
9:52
to come through. Your first thought easy
9:55
must be with so far. Screaming, "Give me
9:57
give me more." That might have been the
9:59
case before. And girl, that's why I
10:01
don't blame you. Cuz I know I lost your
10:04
trust. But how can we get past this if
10:06
you always bringing [ __ ] up? Loving me
10:09
ain't always easy, but you never before
10:11
you met me. Now you're missing. I'm
10:13
sick. Cuz God is my witness.
10:17
Thought that we was drunk.
10:20
If we don't shout, we
10:24
back in.
10:28
Yeah.
10:30
Think about me and you, baby. Thought we
10:34
were strong.
10:36
If we lost, we
10:39
back
10:41
[Music]
10:43
long enough.
10:45
Think about me and you.
10:52
Didn't bring the guitar today, guys.
10:53
Typically, that's what I'm saying.
10:59
Yeah. Yeah.
11:01
[Music]
11:08
[Applause]
11:09
Listen, we fight. We went to couples
11:12
therapy. We tried everything. But the
11:16
one thing we didn't do is hold on.
11:23
I swear to God I wanted this too. I just
11:27
made it worse.
11:30
Sit around and think about me and you.
11:34
This can't be true. We could have made
11:37
it last. Girl, this past
11:41
I know I said I wouldn't cry. What you
11:43
looking for? I hope you find it. Guess
11:45
we ran out of time. I love you too.
11:48
Goodbye.
11:51
Wow. Wow.
11:52
Wow.
11:54
Wow.
11:58
Not yet.
11:59
Think about it. Think about it.
12:01
Hey,
12:02
you want me to come up?
12:03
Yeah. Yeah. Please. Please.
12:06
Think about it. Think about it.
12:12
Thank you, man. Thank you, Trevor. They
12:14
didn't never believed in me, Trevor. But
12:16
you believe in I believe in you.
12:17
You did.
12:21
Yes.
12:22
Oh, damn, man. Yo, I wanted the whole
12:23
cursor. Damn it. Damn.
12:26
Tracker Jackson. Yo,
12:30
let's come up. Let's have everybody come
12:31

12:33
thank you guys. Thank you.
12:33
This man is amazing
12:35
for real.
12:37
On the mic and off the mic.
12:38
Big facts.
12:39
I love his family.
12:41
Yes.
12:42
His brother supports him. I got a big
12:43
brother, too.
12:45
His mom right there with him.
12:48
His honesty in his music. You got to
12:50
hear this album. This series of albums
12:52
he's doing.
12:53
Level of talent.
12:54
Extremely incredible. This is I think I
12:57
saw you on Lion King in New York.
13:00
He was this big.
13:02
And now look at us. We're best friends,
13:04
man. Look at that [ __ ] We're in a
13:06
group. We're actually starting a group.
13:07
He didn't want to tell you guys, but
13:08
I'll tell you. We're starting a group.
13:09
You want to do it now?
13:10
Oh, do it now. Yeah. Yeah. Go ahead. Go,
13:11
bro.
13:11
Um, it's called Smooth and Sexy.
13:14
Oh, okay.
13:15
He's smooth.
13:16
Well, I'm sexy.
13:19
There's no other way around. My bad. I'm
13:21
smooth. He's sexy.
13:22
Thank you, guys.
13:22
And uh yeah, we're dropping R&B. I'll be
13:24
ready for that.
13:25
Brother, thank you very much.
13:27
What kind of reception have you got on
13:28
the project so far?
13:29
It's been cool, man. I think uh my
13:31
favorite part is a lot of the men being
13:33
like, "Yo, I never knew how I felt about
13:35
stuff until like my dad literally was
13:36
talking today. My uncle, he was like,
13:38
your uncle was talking to me and he's
13:39
like, I like Trevor's new album, but I I
13:41
I don't want to be crying. I just be
13:42
want to listen to my nephew, but every
13:44
time I listen, he's like he's like, "I'm
13:45
not even in the middle of a breakup, but
13:46
it like reminds me of a time how I
13:48
felt." And he was like, "So I would be
13:49
like hurt." But he was like, "It's so
13:50
good." But I just appreciate that I'm
13:52
creating that space and people can just
13:54
press play, you know, instead of having
13:55
to say, "You press play." Be like,
13:56
"You're trying to explain to yourself,
13:57
press play."
13:58
Hell yeah.
13:58
Use that.
13:59
And you know, Trev, just a word of
14:00
advice, don't ever underestimate the sex
14:03
route.
14:04
You know, you mean the sex.
14:06
What does that mean exactly?
14:08
You got it. At any point you want to
14:10
take your clothes off
14:12
and take your shirt off
14:14
and just catch panties and stuff and
14:16
see.
14:16
Well, you have to come to the concert.
14:17
You ain't never been to a show.
14:18
Otherwise, you wouldn't be saying that.
14:20
Nah,
14:20
cuz I do that every show.
14:22
Every But not here. You too.
14:23
This isn't my show. This is your show.
14:25
This was your show.
14:26
You got to come to my You got to come to
14:27
my show.
14:28
So, ladies, when's the next show? Tell
14:30
I'm going on uh I'm actually going on
14:32
tour in April.
14:35
Y'all heard me here first. All right. On
14:37
the calendar. We certainly on the
14:38
calendar.
14:39
I don't want to do too much, you know.
14:40
I'm just saying.
14:41
No, no. Do the most. Do the most. We
14:42
here for it.
14:43
Get covered up.
14:45
One one of them married and another is
14:48
in the partnership. Can you believe
14:49
this?
14:50
We And ain't nobody blind.
14:52
Our eyes, man.
14:54
We about potential on this way in the
14:56
morning show. I'm trying to maximize his
14:58
potential. Take it off.
15:02
Really? We just
15:03
No, his mom is right here. I mean, my
15:06
god.
15:07
Thank you, mom.
15:07
My god.
15:09
I'm
15:09
sorry. I'm sorry.
15:11
I told you we were going to keep it
15:12
clean. I'm healing.
15:15
I'm healing.
15:15
I did want to mention though um you have
15:18
so much range.
15:19
Thank you. Thank you.
15:20
It is so beautiful to like see the full
15:22
spectrum of blackness in your artistry.
15:24
Like you are somebody that can hold
15:26
space obviously in theater, you know
15:28
what I mean? In pop, in church, R&B, all
15:31
different styles. And there's just so
15:34
much confidence that you exude. And you
15:36
were talking about how it's difficult
15:37
being an R&B artist when you're in a
15:39
relationship. So, I don't want to talk
15:41
about your relationship with people, but
15:42
I'm curious about your relationship with
15:43
confidence
15:45
like what is contributing to this
15:46
confidence that we're experiencing, but
15:48
then also like what takes away from it
15:51
or attempts to behind the scenes?
15:54
Uh, what contributes to the confidence I
15:55
think is um what I like to do often
15:58
times when I like get weirded out about
15:59
something is I just zoom out. Have you
16:01
ever been on a plane and you look at
16:02
people like, "Oh, look at the little
16:03
people. Look at the little car. Look at
16:04
the little, you know, I mean, look at
16:05
the little problems." So, that's how I
16:07
look at it when I get nervous or
16:08
anything like kind like I'm on a a rock
16:10
in the middle of space.
16:11
That's right.
16:12
We don't really know anything that's
16:13
really going on and I have fun when I'm
16:15
doing the things I'm doing and I want to
16:17
kind of share that. You know, I feel
16:18
like confidence comes when you're
16:19
enjoying yourself. Uh and I think
16:21
confidence can come from the wrong
16:23
place, you know, if it's not that.
16:25
Okay.
16:25
Right. So, I feel like
16:26
like counterfeit confidence.
16:28
Yeah. I think it if it's not something
16:31
that's a part of you, you know, I feel
16:33
like people just put it on. But I think
16:34
when it's something that you love that
16:35
just exudes from you, you know, when
16:37
you're speaking, it's something you're
16:39
amazing at. It's like I'm sure he's not
16:40
in the middle like, "Man, I'm the
16:41
greatest talker, conversationalist, I'm
16:43
the greatest," you know.
16:44
Well, actually,
16:46
well, ah, my bad. My bad.
16:49
Yeah. Yeah. Trevor, come back to the
16:51
show.
16:53
Uh, but yeah, I think that helps in my
16:55
faith in God and my family. I have a

very amazing support system, but also um
16:58

17:03
I know that there's going to be at least
17:05
one person here that understands what
17:06
I'm talking about and that's enough. If
17:07
I've reached one, that's enough. Um, and
17:10
then what uh with the other side of your
17:12
question was what?
17:12
Yeah. What kind of attacks your
17:14
confidence behind the scenes?
17:15
Me, me, me, me. That's it. I'm I'm my
17:18

17:18
I don't have no other problems but me.
17:20
You know what I'm saying?
17:21
Yeah. Honestly,
17:23
Jackson, I love you.
17:25
Goodbye.
17:25
Goodbye. The greatest breakup album of
17:29
all time. Citizens, let's stand up. This
17:32
was our last garage series of 2025.
