0:02
either get on the boat and have a good
0:04
time and realize that you know most of
0:06
us are walking wounded right right
0:09
absolutely you know like I was I said
0:11
something on Facebook where I mentioned
0:12
about all the see-through clothing now
0:15
if everybody was naked and wearing
0:17
see-through clothing including the men
0:19
it would be ecstatic and fun and I would
0:21
get it it's a good Trend everyone's
0:23
showing their bit but it's only the
0:25
girls and it really bothers me because
0:28
it feels very uncreative and it feels
0:32
thirsty and I'm going to say something
0:34
like and I think she's probably the you
0:36
know she's probably a sweet woman but
0:38
like when I look at someone like JLo or
0:40
Madonna even it's like they're still
0:42
pushing the sex thing and there's
0:44
something sort of sad about that like I
0:46
get intrinsically sad and I you know
0:49
sometimes I think God I wish I had all
0:50
their money but then I go well but I'm
0:53
so happy and I don't have all the
0:57
pressure to keep booming and pushing
1:00
that I don't know it's like i w i i want
1:03
to say like are they successful at the
1:05
end of the day like are we doing this
1:08
because we like it or are we doing this
1:10
because we want to be
1:12
loved I think it's a combination I was
1:15
gonna say maybe a little bit of both or
1:17
a bit of both yeah yeah and um why don't
1:21
we start with love why don't we just get
1:22
why don't we just be in
1:24
love and then would you do this like
1:27
that's what I had to ask myself like
1:29
would I do this gig and be in this game
1:33
if I had full if I had all my voids
1:37
filed if I had all those you know
1:41
existential angst if I had it all healed
1:43
would I still be doing this I
1:46
wouldn't and another question is is
1:48
would your creativity or your creative
1:50
output be the same if you weren't in
1:54
state it would be very different and now
1:57
it's different because I only work with
1:58
people I love I only do things that I
2:01
absolutely adore and if it's going to be
2:04
fun and if it's going to be something
2:10
different okay and that and that makes
2:12
you know what in that that is a great
2:14
segue because for you in terms of that
2:17
and I mentioned this earlier I'm excited
2:19
to chat with you because I've kind of
2:20
had the pleasure of growing up on a lot
2:22
of your projects you know I just turned
2:24
50 so I'm right right in that pocket
2:26
many of them made a very long lasting
2:29
impact on my life specifically soulman
2:30
and Beach Street just to name a few so
2:33
this conversation that we're having
2:34
right here please definitely consider
2:36
this my way of giving you all the
2:38
flowers that you right for everything
2:41
that you've done and I got to say every
2:43
character I've seen you play you brought
2:45
so much depth to that performance and
2:48
just based upon you know the information
2:49
you just gave to me uh I I can
2:52
understand why uh in terms of that well
2:54
and I have to tell you every time I ever
2:57
did anything I always tried to make it
3:00
I always tried to make them
3:02
multi-layered you know I always tried to
3:04
take it out of the playing My Race
3:07
obviously but but playing a person a
3:10
soul a multi-dimensional being because
3:12
it's tough you know I came up in the era
3:14
of Farah faset they didn't want anyone
3:17
that looked like me and I would have
3:18
been I don't know and then you know yeah
3:22
but I want to talk about Obama for just
3:24
a second I think that he was such he
3:30
he motivated so much inspiration and so
3:32
much care and so much love and in a
3:34
country that's based on in a in a
3:36
country system like the United States
3:39
that's based on white supremacy he
3:42
absolutely threw a wrench in the works
3:45
and all the superpowers that are behind
3:48
all the the N Christian nationalists and
3:50
all the dark billionaires who are super
3:53
super racist and and run a lot of it you
3:55
know of the country and um they just
4:00
so I I I love that Obama had eight years
4:05
to show us and to heal the community
4:08
because he did heal the
4:09
community we we needed to know we needed
4:13
to remember that we were kings that we
4:16
were we are queens and that we are Kings
4:19
and that we have run things and that we
4:21
are probably the the African the African
4:25
was probably the Builder of Egypt the
4:27
Egyptians came after the Africans for
4:30
instance like the the the ancient
4:32
history that has been suppressed about
4:36
the about the African that we don't get
4:38
taught that people don't know all we get
4:41
is this tiny little window of just
4:43
butchered history and the reality is the
4:46
black man is probably well for sure is
4:50
the original human being
