1:30
Speaker 1: a lot of famous people in this in your intro?
1:33
Speaker 1: How does that correlate with what are you trying to
1:35
Speaker 1: do so you can make sure you you develop your
1:38
Speaker 1: name your brand Germain Um, Well, first of all, I
1:45
Speaker 1: named my company years ago before I've ever been to Hollywood.
1:48
Speaker 1: I named it before I go Hollywood, so that already
1:51
Speaker 1: lets you know, like my mindset UM And my first
1:54
Speaker 1: album was called Now or Never, so that lets you
1:57
Speaker 1: know my mindset. I'm always one of those types of
1:59
Speaker 1: people that look at the glass it's half full, and
2:01
Speaker 1: I'm always that type of person. I want to surround
2:04
Speaker 1: myself with greatness, surround myself with positive people, surround myself
2:08
Speaker 1: with people that's head it in the same direction as me.
2:11
Speaker 1: Are people that's already there um to the destination where
2:14
Speaker 1: I'm trying to get. So so they become mentors in
2:18
Speaker 1: a way for you when you see them and they
2:20
Speaker 1: can tell you. Because one thing I love about the
2:23
Speaker 1: younger generation because a lot of y'all get wraps because
2:25
Speaker 1: you know, people say, y'all want to take it easy. Y'all,
2:28
Speaker 1: y'all lazy, y'all don't want to work hard for I say,
2:31
Speaker 1: y'all take advantage of technology. You know, I grew up.
2:34
Speaker 1: I was born the rotor Ydale telephones was out there. Okay,
2:38
Speaker 1: you born in the internet, the social media, video phones,
2:43
Speaker 1: you should take advantage of that. How do you take
2:46
Speaker 1: advantage of it through social media outside of the relationship
2:50
Speaker 1: that you meet physically. Well, I would say with the
2:54
Speaker 1: social media thing, it's just that it's like the whole
2:57
Speaker 1: world is available to you. Like you said, like maybe
3:00
Speaker 1: when you were doing it, you you probably had you
3:03
Speaker 1: had to physically do everything right, so you you had
3:06
Speaker 1: to go meet people at a party probably within your city.
3:09
Speaker 1: You probably wasn't meeting people in London. You weren't meeting
3:12
Speaker 1: people in Asia. You weren't meeting people in Africa, but now, um,
3:17
Speaker 1: which is a huge advantage, and so anyone that's not
3:20
Speaker 1: taking the advantage of that, it is Yeah, I don't
3:23
Speaker 1: know what to tell you, but it is a huge
3:25
Speaker 1: advantage because now I could get on this phone, like
3:28
Speaker 1: we're talking right now, You're in a complete different city,
3:31
Speaker 1: complete different state, completely you know, you like somewhere completely
3:34
Speaker 1: different than me. I'm in Los Angeles right now, but
3:37
Speaker 1: somehow we're conducting this dope interview. UM, just based off
3:41
Speaker 1: of this phone and based off the technology. So it
3:43
Speaker 1: go the same way with creating fans, creating customers, creating anything. UM.
3:48
Speaker 1: You you definitely have the advantage nowadays, but with it
3:53
Speaker 1: being in the advantage, it becomes a disadvantage too because
3:56
Speaker 1: at the same time, everyone's doing it Versus if you
4:01
Speaker 1: are a hustling back in the day and you're doing
4:03
Speaker 1: something back in the day, you might have had a
4:05
Speaker 1: couple of people to compete with, but now you have
4:08
Speaker 1: the world to with. If the grandma decided to pick
4:11
Speaker 1: up the phone because she's want to do a rap,
4:13
Speaker 1: and then she could without just like you could throw
4:16
Speaker 1: it out. People pay attention to that quicker than they
4:19
Speaker 1: made patents into your stuff, you know, because I really, really,
4:23
Speaker 1: you know something, Just tell you something, Germain. I've interviewed
4:27
Speaker 1: a lot of people, but you hit it dead on
4:29
Speaker 1: the nail right there, because of the fact that time
4:32
Speaker 1: allows me. Like I said, I remember when I started
4:35
Speaker 1: doing pause parties, you know, passing out my flies and
4:38
Speaker 1: all that. Now fast forward today, you know, somebody post
4:44
Speaker 1: on social media, they got followers. It's in New Zealand,
4:47
Speaker 1: it's in Canada, it's in Brazil, it's wherever that feed
4:51
Speaker 1: takes that brand. But that could be scary too, because
4:54
Speaker 1: I just read where you know, you know, the star
4:57
Speaker 1: of the Spider Man series. You know, he's taking the
5:00
Speaker 1: to break from his social media because what he reads
5:03
Speaker 1: on a constant basis, How do you deal with social media?
5:06
Speaker 1: Because we're seeing more and more people, especially people of color,
5:10
Speaker 1: acknowledging the mental stress. There used to be that we
5:15
Speaker 1: would never tell we had weakness. Black people would always
5:18
Speaker 1: hide that and hold that back in. But mental stress
5:21
Speaker 1: is a real big problem talk to us. So yeah, um,
5:25
Speaker 1: I mean, as as far as me, I try not to,
5:29
Speaker 1: like I said a little earlier, like I'm a glass
5:31
Speaker 1: half full. Type of person. So the biggest thing, like
5:35
Speaker 1: with this with social media, is just knowing who you
5:39
Speaker 1: are and knowing what you're there for. You have to
5:42
Speaker 1: know who you are. If you don't know who you are,
5:44
Speaker 1: you you're gonna have problems in life period because someone
5:46
Speaker 1: can tell you're something else that someone could say, you
5:49
Speaker 1: look ugly, are you stupid? Are you you're broke? Are
5:52
Speaker 1: you like our look at you because of the color
5:55
Speaker 1: you're skin, and you will feel insecure about that. But
5:58
Speaker 1: once you know who you are, you know what you represent,
6:01
Speaker 1: you know what you stand for, then at that point
6:04
Speaker 1: it's harder to you know, I'm not saying it's easy,
6:07
Speaker 1: because we all go through it, right, Like, we all
6:09
Speaker 1: want validation sometimes from other people, and that's where we
6:13
Speaker 1: get stuck. When we want that other person to say
6:15
Speaker 1: we look good. We want that other person to say
6:17
Speaker 1: and in Spider Man's case, oh you did an amazing
6:20
Speaker 1: job on that movie, or you're this or you're that.
6:22
Speaker 1: But unfortunately success come with hey, you know what I mean?
6:26
Speaker 1: And and that's just how it is, like say, no
6:30
Speaker 1: matter what it is, like, imagine like you could be
6:32
Speaker 1: the person that's trying to start a barbershop you know,
6:35
Speaker 1: and and you you you're gonna have friends and family
6:38
Speaker 1: that don't support it, or they're gonna try to limit
6:41
Speaker 1: you to what you could do. They're gonna try to
6:43
Speaker 1: be like, oh, I don't know, you sure you're gonna
6:45
Speaker 1: do a barbershop. You know they're not they're not successful
6:48
Speaker 1: like that at the percentage of like, they're gonna feed
6:51
Speaker 1: you different things to detroy you to to to make
6:55
Speaker 1: make you pretty much go away from what you're trying
6:58
Speaker 1: to do. And this happens all the time on so um.
7:01
Speaker 1: You just gotta be strong minded, know who you are
7:04
Speaker 1: and know where you're headed, know where you're going, and
7:06
Speaker 1: not allow nobody to slow you down or stop that.
7:09
Speaker 1: We'll be right back with more Money Making Conversations Masterclass
7:13
Speaker 1: with Rushan McDonald. Now, let's return to Money Making Conversations
7:18
Speaker 1: Masterclass with Rashan McDonald's talking to the CEO before before
7:23
Speaker 1: I go Hollywood. Jermaine Carter a kid and Jane Young
7:27
Speaker 1: the million dollar kid. You know I said earlier, he's
7:30
Speaker 1: a rapper, he's a model, he's an actor, multi multi entertainer.
7:34
Speaker 1: But more importantly, he's an entrepreneur and a businessman. And
7:38
Speaker 1: that's really where the new model is nowadays because you
7:41
Speaker 1: used to go out and people just with performers. Now
7:45
Speaker 1: we have your entrepreneur. What allows you to be able
7:49
Speaker 1: to be at our business person? Is it because you
7:51
Speaker 1: want to understand how to maximize your income and opportunities
7:58
Speaker 1: versus just being a town Well with me, I always
8:03
Speaker 1: believed that I wanted equity in anything I do. Like
8:06
Speaker 1: since I was a kid, all of the people that
8:08
Speaker 1: I admired, well, you know, it started as just admiring
8:11
Speaker 1: the talent, but then I started looking behind the scenes, like, okay,
8:14
Speaker 1: who's involved with this? Like, and I saw the people
8:17
Speaker 1: that literally had the generational wealth and the people that
8:21
Speaker 1: chance kids kids were getting fed off. It was the owners,
8:24
Speaker 1: the people that owned the publishing with music, the people
8:28
Speaker 1: that owned businesses, that owned real estate, that owned McDonald's,
8:31
Speaker 1: that owned whatever. Those were the people who were able
8:35
Speaker 1: to take care of their families for the long haul,
8:38
Speaker 1: you know. And always thought about it. I know, and
8:41
Speaker 1: I love my mom. My mom took very good care
8:43
Speaker 1: care me as a kid and um and and everything.
8:46
Speaker 1: But always when I when I grew up, I had
8:49
Speaker 1: nothing and I had nothing to inherit here, like I'm
8:53
Speaker 1: the first person that had this mindset that started from
8:56
Speaker 1: ground zero. So I didn't. I don't my kids, kids
9:01
Speaker 1: kids to have to do that. So I have to
9:04
Speaker 1: be entrepreneur, I have to have to have equity and
9:06
Speaker 1: everything I do, I have to be able to one day,
9:10
Speaker 1: UM make their life easier than mine. And I feel
9:12
Speaker 1: like that's the goal for everyone, UM is to make
9:15
Speaker 1: sure that your family's life is easier than yours. That's
9:18
Speaker 1: what we're put here to do. We're put here to
9:20
Speaker 1: enjoy ourselves, put here to take care of our family
9:22
Speaker 1: and make sure that your family's life is better than
9:26
Speaker 1: yours are they have a better start. If I started
9:28
Speaker 1: at ground zero, which I did, I should be able
9:31
Speaker 1: to at least uh pass my kids down ground five
9:35
Speaker 1: or ground tens. So they started a tend instead of
9:37
Speaker 1: the zero. And that's where and that's what's been happening
9:40
Speaker 1: to the Royal families and are to to uh just
9:44
Speaker 1: different races. They've always been able to leave their kids something,
9:47
Speaker 1: whether it's a house, whether it's a little bit of money,
9:51
Speaker 1: whether it's some stocks, whatever it is, they left from something,
9:55
Speaker 1: you know, and that's what I'm doing for you know.
9:58
Speaker 1: I it was inter my life has been interesting because
10:01
Speaker 1: I remember when I look at you being a multi
10:03
Speaker 1: talented individual. I remember in October one that was a
10:08
Speaker 1: that was a day for me because I really I
10:11
Speaker 1: had a talk with myself and it was motivated by
10:14
Speaker 1: my belief. And my faith was that I asked card
10:17
Speaker 1: if he allowed me to just to maximize all my
10:21
Speaker 1: talents that I would give, I would not I will
10:25
Speaker 1: not cheat the gifts. And when I see you a
10:29
Speaker 1: model actor, you know, rapper, you know, entrepreneur, a businessman.
10:35
Speaker 1: When you look at maximizing your talents, how do you
10:38
Speaker 1: do that? Jermaine? How do you how do you decipher
10:42
Speaker 1: and monitor and multitask all that not just in a
10:45
Speaker 1: daily basis, but a weekly and a monthly basis. I
10:50
Speaker 1: think the biggest thing for me is passion. I just
10:53
Speaker 1: have a passion for it. I don't do anything that
10:56
Speaker 1: I don't love, you know, like I could do. I'm
11:00
Speaker 1: pretty sure I'm one of those types of people that
11:03
Speaker 1: could do anything I want to do, Like there's nothing
11:06
Speaker 1: I can do if I put my mind too. But
11:07
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna put my mind that everything. I'm only
11:09
Speaker 1: gonna put my mind to things I genuinely love. I
11:12
Speaker 1: love music, so that's why I do it. I love
11:16
Speaker 1: acting and film, That's why I do it. I love hustling.
11:19
Speaker 1: That's why I'm an entrepreneur. I just have a passion
11:22
Speaker 1: for Like, that's the things that make me happy. Now,
11:25
Speaker 1: if it didn't make me happy, there's things I've tried
11:28
Speaker 1: that was like m m, yeah, that's not for me,
11:31
Speaker 1: you know. But if it wasn't the fact that I
11:33
Speaker 1: couldn't do it, well, it's just I just didn't have
11:35
Speaker 1: a passion for it. That's not what I lay. I know.
11:37
Speaker 1: If I don't love something, I'm not gonna do it
11:39
Speaker 1: well because I'm not gonna give it my all. So
11:42
Speaker 1: I feel like one of the biggest things to begin
11:44
Speaker 1: with is finding your passion. What do you love to do?
11:47
Speaker 1: So if you find something that you love to do
11:49
Speaker 1: that you would do for free, although you want to
11:52
Speaker 1: make money eventually, but you would do this thing for free,
11:55
Speaker 1: then that's your passion. And then you wake up and
11:58
Speaker 1: you're smelling and then bring you joy of bring you happiness.
12:01
Speaker 1: That's your passion. So that's something that you will naturally
12:04
Speaker 1: excel in because you already love it to begin with.
12:08
Speaker 1: Now there's three things. Then I always say don't put
12:11
Speaker 1: your eggs in one basket, do all three, you know,
12:14
Speaker 1: like and see what's for you, and then maybe two
12:17
Speaker 1: of them get weeded out and you're only doing one
12:19
Speaker 1: thing or maybe one thing to work for you at
12:21
Speaker 1: the moment, and then you transition at the other things,
12:25
Speaker 1: like sometimes music works for me, and then and film's
12:29
Speaker 1: not going on, and then I do that, and then
12:31
Speaker 1: a film opportunity comes up, so now I'm doing film.
12:34
Speaker 1: And then I'm doing film, and a modeling opportunity comes up,
12:37
Speaker 1: so now I'm gonna do modeling. I'm gonna run with
12:39
Speaker 1: the opportunity at the same time while I'm still doing
12:42
Speaker 1: everything and going in the right direction. You know, my
12:46
Speaker 1: career path. I love it. I'm speaking to a Jamaine Card.
12:49
Speaker 1: How did how did m d K? Million dollar kid?
12:51
Speaker 1: How did you get How did that become part of
12:53
Speaker 1: your brain? How did that become part of your brain?
12:55
Speaker 1: Because I love it? Well. When I when I was
12:57
Speaker 1: when I was a little kid, they used to tell
12:59
Speaker 1: me looked like a million dollars, and I love it.
13:03
Speaker 1: So I went from I was I was just Jay
13:05
Speaker 1: young at the time, and um and I had a
13:09
Speaker 1: friend also who U should call itself a million dollar
13:11
Speaker 1: Man based off of Ted d beonce the wrestler, right right.
13:15
Speaker 1: So I kind of got that name from I was
13:18
Speaker 1: thinking of a name, like an extra name, like an
13:20
Speaker 1: A k A. And he was like, men, he looked
13:22
Speaker 1: like a million dollars. So on set of calling myself
13:24
Speaker 1: a million dollar man, I went with a million dollar kid,
13:27
Speaker 1: and then eventually I nailed it down to J Young
13:31
Speaker 1: M d K instead of being like j Young the
13:33
Speaker 1: million dollar Kids, so it became m d K. Right. Well,
13:37
Speaker 1: I first off just to predate that it was a brand,
13:40
Speaker 1: and I'm sure being the business person you are, you
13:43
Speaker 1: think trademarked it and got it all right, cool, let's
13:47
Speaker 1: just do it right. You are a businessman when I
13:49
Speaker 1: when I thought these famous names. And then you know
13:51
Speaker 1: your stage with Snoop, your stage with you know, we
13:54
Speaker 1: know his career, one of the olds a rap, you know, Dion,
13:58
Speaker 1: stage with the Oscar Winner and James Fox, then you
14:01
Speaker 1: don't stay with CARTI Wayne, Then your stage with Gary On.
14:05
Speaker 1: That's a lot of different people you're hanging with, man,
14:07
Speaker 1: that's a lot of different you know, uh brands, How
14:12
Speaker 1: do you how do you float like that? Come on,
14:14
Speaker 1: Jermaine Talk to us. You know what's so crazy? Every
14:18
Speaker 1: since ever since I was young, I'm a master networker.
14:23
Speaker 1: Like I've mastered networking. Right, This is what I've always
14:26
Speaker 1: tell people. If Obama was in my city, somehow I
14:29
Speaker 1: would end up at the party wheld Obama was gonna
14:32
Speaker 1: be in a section with Obama. It's just like that's
14:35
Speaker 1: just my life, Like every single time is just you
14:38
Speaker 1: attract with you know, You're just the energy, it's the hustle,
14:41
Speaker 1: it's what you attract, you know. Um So it's just
14:45
Speaker 1: always worked like that for me. I've never been afraid either.
14:48
Speaker 1: I've never been afraid. I'm the person that when I
14:51
Speaker 1: see something and people are like, oh wait, that's jay Z,
14:54
Speaker 1: don't go over there, because you know that's exactly where
14:57
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go. I'm going directly to what I'm I'm
15:00
Speaker 1: not afraid to hear now. And that's important because people know,
15:05
Speaker 1: in fear kind of married itself, you know, because of
15:08
Speaker 1: people don't want to make that transition, don't want to
15:11
Speaker 1: because of fear of rejection, fear what people might think
15:14
Speaker 1: of them. That is a that is an incredible leap
15:18
Speaker 1: for a young person. And how do you make that
15:21
Speaker 1: leap and then with people question you, Jay, how do
15:25
Speaker 1: you resist? Uh? Not been falling victim to their questioning
15:29
Speaker 1: or doubts because their doubts or their doubts, Like I'll
15:35
Speaker 1: believe that and go back to when you say believe
15:37
Speaker 1: in yourself, like, um, Tom Brady know if he throw
15:41
Speaker 1: the ball that he know how he This is what
15:44
Speaker 1: I would say, Not even Tom Brady and he's a
15:46
Speaker 1: he's a god and football right. But let's go to
15:48
Speaker 1: Steph Curry for example. Steph Curry could close his eyes
15:52
Speaker 1: and make the shot. Why because he put in that
15:55
Speaker 1: much work to practice that hard. It's not the game.
15:59
Speaker 1: It's not because of the game. Is because of the practice.
16:02
Speaker 1: He knows what he's He know the hours he put in,
16:05
Speaker 1: He know the work that he put in. So by
16:07
Speaker 1: the time he gets to you and he makes the
16:10
Speaker 1: shot or he shoot the shot, he knows what's gonna
16:12
Speaker 1: go in. So he can't He don't have time for
16:14
Speaker 1: people to be like you imagine he was very small
16:16
Speaker 1: coming out of college, people like he would never work
16:18
Speaker 1: in the NBA, and he ended up being a person
16:21
Speaker 1: that transformed the whole NBA to where everybody want to
16:24
Speaker 1: shoot threes now everybody's shooting threes from half court. And
16:28
Speaker 1: that's that's based on the simple fact that he practiced,
16:31
Speaker 1: and he practiced, he became confident and confidence, you know,
16:34
Speaker 1: like you get confidence with with with practice, you know
16:37
Speaker 1: you're good. So nobody else have to validate that you're
16:39
Speaker 1: gonna be good, or you're gonna be okay or nothing.
16:42
Speaker 1: You just you work, keep working on yourself, put your
16:45
Speaker 1: head down, go straight. Don't worry about what people say.
16:48
Speaker 1: You know, when people say bad things about you, don't
16:51
Speaker 1: listen to him. People say great things about you. Listen
16:53
Speaker 1: to it a little bit, but just keep working, working.
16:58
Speaker 1: Now we're you know, we got the pandemic out there,
17:02
Speaker 1: we got the George Floyd's situation. But here's my man,
17:05
Speaker 1: Jay Young. In twenty he made history being the first
17:09
Speaker 1: artist to release a four rap album and r B
17:12
Speaker 1: album on the same day. Now, that's what I'm talking about.
17:16
Speaker 1: How you continue to push the limits. Now, when this
17:20
Speaker 1: idea came to you, that's I always telling about. When
17:22
Speaker 1: I'm saying that, you know, and it's not a negative statement,
17:24
Speaker 1: but people were pushing go that's crazy. Why do that
17:27
Speaker 1: final final land? You're trying to do too much because
17:30
Speaker 1: I'm sure all those statements came at you, but you
17:32
Speaker 1: did it anyway. What did you gain by doing that? Well,
17:37
Speaker 1: first of all, I heard that all my life when
17:39
Speaker 1: it comes to that, you're doing too much because I'm
17:41
Speaker 1: I was an athlete first, so I played football, played
17:44
Speaker 1: on both sides of the ball. Um, I played wide receiver,
17:47
Speaker 1: I played defensive back, running back, everything, So I was
17:50
Speaker 1: already I've always been used to being a slash type
17:53
Speaker 1: of player playing on both sides, so that that helped
17:57
Speaker 1: me going into regular life when it come to doing
18:00
Speaker 1: other things. So naturally, I just love to feel challenge
18:05
Speaker 1: like so I'm and I'm always thinking of what's the
18:07
Speaker 1: next thing that nobody else has done? Are very few
18:10
Speaker 1: have done? You know? So that that's how at the time,
18:15
Speaker 1: I was doing a thing called fifty Songs fifty Weeks.
18:18
Speaker 1: That was I was released one song every week for
18:20
Speaker 1: fifty weeks. So while dropping a lot of music dropping weekly,
18:25
Speaker 1: I was like, man, I might as well put together
18:27
Speaker 1: a full body of work, you know, And and the
18:31
Speaker 1: beauty about the fifty songs fifty weeks and you didn't
18:33
Speaker 1: know what you're gonna get. I was dropping rap records,
18:36
Speaker 1: I was dropping on the records. You just didn't know.
18:39
Speaker 1: You had to tune in to see what you can get.
18:42
Speaker 1: So so I said, you know what, Let's drop two albums.
18:46
Speaker 1: First of all, one could be R and B. One
18:48
Speaker 1: could be wrapped, since I'm releasing a lot of a boat.
18:51
Speaker 1: And I was like, wait, let's drop it on the
18:53
Speaker 1: same day, because nobody's ever done that. I mean, they're
18:56
Speaker 1: sure there's been double albums, like Tupac All Eyes on
18:59
Speaker 1: Me was the first Upble album, but it was a
19:01
Speaker 1: double rap album. It wasn't like one R and B
19:04
Speaker 1: album and want rap album, like two different genres. So
19:06
Speaker 1: I was like, Okay, that would be cool. Because I'm
19:08
Speaker 1: already doing something called fifty songs fifty weeks, why not
19:11
Speaker 1: do two albums one day. And that's how that happened.
19:14
Speaker 1: And the reaction was, I mean, every news outlet, everybody
19:19
Speaker 1: picked it up. And it was happening during the pandemic
19:22
Speaker 1: at the same time when a lot of people weren't
19:25
Speaker 1: really they were signed with labels. And that go back
19:27
Speaker 1: to your independence and your equity and your ownership. Because
19:30
Speaker 1: I was able to decide what I wanted to do
19:33
Speaker 1: and when I wanted to do it, I didn't have
19:35
Speaker 1: to wait for a label to say, nah, it's a pandemic. Um,
19:39
Speaker 1: we're not gonna allow you to drop music, you know.
19:42
Speaker 1: So I was able to on my own say I'm
19:45
Speaker 1: gonna release this much music. Okay, Now, I'm gonna drop
19:47
Speaker 1: two albums on the same day. Okay, Um a couple
19:50
Speaker 1: of months later, I want to release another album. To
19:52
Speaker 1: making three albums within three months. Like you know, it
19:55

Speaker 1: to I want to ship before as we close out, man,
22:37
Speaker 1: because violence is you know, you know, I grew up
22:40
Speaker 1: in the whole rap when it's first exploded, and it
22:43
Speaker 1: seemed to calm down. But now it seems like every time,
22:46
Speaker 1: at least every month or every quarter or young rapper
22:49
Speaker 1: is becoming a victim of senseless violence within the rap
22:53
Speaker 1: community on stage, you know, at the house, at their
22:57
Speaker 1: apartment in the streets. What has happening there? What am
23:00
Speaker 1: I missing? What information? Could you can tell me? They
23:03
Speaker 1: can help me out? You know, it's it's so much.
23:09
Speaker 1: It's I feel like it's so much. You know, me
23:11
Speaker 1: being from Atlanta living in Atlanta, um like I see
23:15
Speaker 1: a firsthand, like I'm seeing people get locked up, I'm
23:19
Speaker 1: seeing people get killed. I know friends has gotten killed.
23:23
Speaker 1: I feel like, not even just music right now, the
23:26
Speaker 1: state that we're living in, definitely in America, man, as
23:29
Speaker 1: a young black America, it's just it's bad. It's bad.
23:34
Speaker 1: You know, like everybody, everybody determined knowledge and the raps
23:38
Speaker 1: and everybody talking about my ops ops, I have to
23:42
Speaker 1: go kill this person. No that's not your ops. But um, everybody, everybody,
23:47
Speaker 1: it's like and and also you have to think about
23:51
Speaker 1: the record labels that's actually promoting this stuff. I mean,
23:54
Speaker 1: you can't you can't say anything about the LGBT community
23:59
Speaker 1: or you will be ansled. But you could go you
24:01
Speaker 1: can talk about killing the black man and it's gonna
24:04
Speaker 1: be the number one song on the radio. So what
24:07
Speaker 1: is what messages that sending to us? And you got
24:10
Speaker 1: all these people who are coming from poverty, who have nothing,
24:13
Speaker 1: who um who Who's who's promoting a certain lifestyle and
24:19
Speaker 1: and getting rich off of it. But maybe it's one
24:21
Speaker 1: or two people are tem people out of the city
24:23
Speaker 1: that got rich off there's thousands of people that's getting
24:27
Speaker 1: killed off of it, you know, for the same lifestyle
24:29
Speaker 1: that that we're promoting. But it's just I don't know
24:33
Speaker 1: with the state because I'm not involved in that type
24:35
Speaker 1: of stuff, but I do see it, and I just
24:38
Speaker 1: feel like the promotion of it, the promotion of it,
24:40
Speaker 1: it sounds cool, but it's real stuff Like this is
24:43
Speaker 1: the craziest generation of music ever. I remember when when
24:47
Speaker 1: you had like the jay z s and all these
24:49
Speaker 1: people talking about they talking about things they used to
24:52
Speaker 1: do that they were over now that they weren't doing.
24:55
Speaker 1: This is a generation that's like I slid on my
24:58
Speaker 1: I went and shot at my kill of them, and
25:00
Speaker 1: they really did it. And they're really doing it at
25:03
Speaker 1: the time when they're saying it, it's the craziest thing
25:05
Speaker 1: I've ever seen in my life. Um. But and and
25:09
Speaker 1: how do we fix it? I don't know completely. I
25:12
Speaker 1: would be lying if I said I know how to
25:14
Speaker 1: fix it because it's been so many years of gangs
25:17
Speaker 1: going at each other. This person killed that person. Now
25:20
Speaker 1: this person have to get revenge and the other person
25:23
Speaker 1: now they've got to go get revenge, and now they're
25:25
Speaker 1: back at it again. It's just like it's it's crazy.
25:28
Speaker 1: I don't know how it stops. I don't know. Um,
25:31
Speaker 1: I know how it stops. It stops with this conversations,
25:36
Speaker 1: you know, and also with us, and you know us,
25:39
Speaker 1: you know you know the answer. First of all, you know,
25:43
Speaker 1: you're you're so articularly you're you're very small. You you
25:46
Speaker 1: you're educating me. Okay, you know I would tell you
25:49
Speaker 1: drop three things on me that I'm I'm gonna take
25:52
Speaker 1: away from this. So I feel that's a blessing from
25:54
Speaker 1: this interview. But how it stopped really is is a
25:57
Speaker 1: respect and being humble and being willing to walk away.
26:01
Speaker 1: And that's a problem. You know, people don't want to
26:03
Speaker 1: walk away, and then people want to issue threats and ultimatums,
26:08
Speaker 1: and then people are challenging them, unfortunately, challenging them with violence,
26:12
Speaker 1: and that just leads us to go why. But more
26:15
Speaker 1: importantly that you know, your career is, as they said,
26:18
Speaker 1: this way, with a lot of prayer, a lot of inspirations,
26:21
Speaker 1: and a lot of success tied to it. I just
26:23
Speaker 1: want to thank you Jermaine Card for taking the time

26:43
Speaker 1: I've I've touched a lot of people and not really
26:45
Speaker 1: knowing how much I've impacted them along the way until
26:48
Speaker 1: they tell me later on. You said this, and this
26:50
Speaker 1: is what happened in my life, and I heard you.

Speaker 1: tell you what you can't do. Of course you do
26:59
Speaker 1: that any way, but there are moments when you people
27:01
Speaker 1: can push enough doubt on you that you can like
27:05
Speaker 1: not trust your natural instincts, but know that your natural
27:07
Speaker 1: instricts work. Keep the positive people around you. And when
