  Speaker 1: group for you. Oh wow, that's awesome. I wouldn't be
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: respecting that. That's great. Well, I'm telling something, man, Um.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: You know, I had Marvin Shapped earlier on the show,
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: and we were just talking about faith in business, because
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: that's what this show is about. Faith in business is
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: about how, you know, what keeps you going when the
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: business don't seem or life doesn't seem like it's working
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: for you. And I like to get a quick comment
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: on that before we get into the interview. What are
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: your thoughts, sir, Well, what keeps me going when it
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: when it seems like everything's not going the way I'm playing?
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: And um, really, it's just my my my trust and
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: my faith in God and what he will do. I
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: never think anything is a mistake. So even though we
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: make mistakes, God can use our mistake can turn around
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: for our good. So even the things that we consider
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: to be a setbacks, He sets use those things to
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: set ups up for what he wants us to do
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: and what he has in store for us. So I
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: leave a lively state, knowing that everything's gonna be good.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: Even though it doesn't feel good, I know it's working
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: out for my good. Wow, give around applause on that
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: now now, because I have to bring up business because
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: you have your own record label, right, yes, sir? Why
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: because that's a business part, you know, when you're from
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: talent to business. Now why did you why why was
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: it important to have your own record label? Well, we
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: have been with the same UM label for fifteen years.
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: E one used to be They went through several different
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: UM purchases and names. They were at one point, at
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: one point Light Records, then they went to Artemist Gospel,
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: been back to E one UM. All all throughout those
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: transitions we maintain the same record contract UM and they
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: were good to us. You know. Of course things grew
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: and got better as we went along. But we realized, um,
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: after all these years, we got you know, you know, publishing,
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: so you know a little bit per sale and um, um,
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: you know we've got something for our songs. But that
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: was about it. We've got an artist woralty, and we
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: realized that we made so much less than what we
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: could have made if we were able to put the
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: record on ourselves. What I think people think that record
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: labels are this big machine. Because of social media and internet,
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: everything has really shrunk when it comes to the record
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: label input. So really, what they do is they are
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: the bank. Um, they pay the bills now everyone Usually
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: you used to have publicists. I worked at the record label.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: Now they contract their publicists. They used to have someone
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: who worked radio at the record label. Now they contracted
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: radio people. So in my hand and I'm like, well,
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: if they're contracting everyone, why can't I contract them myself
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: and make all the money. So that's what I decided
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: to do. We came to a crossroads with the label said, okay,
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: you know it's time to re up. It's time to
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: you know, resound ideal. Um, are you ready to go?
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: I said, well, hold on, yes, sir, I said, why
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: don't we do a distribution deal. So I'll make the record,
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: I'll fund it, and you know, all I need to
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: do is put it in the stores for me. They agree,
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: you know, you know, I'm sure they thought, you know,
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: we'll see what happens. You know, you'll be coming back
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: in a minute. Um so, But we did it. And
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: our first record that we released in this new deal
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: was you Deserve It. No one ever dreamed. They didn't
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: understand what you just said. You made a decision to
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: go your all record label. Correct, And the first record
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: he released is you deserve It. Come on, now, come on, see,
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: I can't let them go past that. I can't let
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: them under because see, sometimes that's going out on faith.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: But he also had a business plan, and so when
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: when the thing about when people start, when you start
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: changing directions in life, people will question you, ain't the
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: working out good for you? JJ over there aren't they pay? Yeah,
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: that's working out. But I see a bigger opportunity for myself.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: That's where the faith comes in. But he also had
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: seen some cracks in the business. He said, I can
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: do that myself. You deserve it has been on the
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: chart for fifty weeks, y'all, fifty weeks, and if you
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: listen to the spirit like I listened to the top fifteen,
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: it's been number one, a number two for the last
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: twenty weeks, y'all. Come on, now, your head not that's
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: that's a phrase that that always because this shows about
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: faith in business, that shows about getting people to understand
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: that they're married. My hallelujah belongs to you? What exactly
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: does that mean? J J? Well, you know, we're living
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: in a day where we praise and idolize everything. I mean,
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: you have reality stars who can't walk down the street
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: because you gotta you know, a huge but people hiding
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: trees to see them. We've made idols out of people. Um.
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: But now this song is declaring that my praise doesn't
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: go to any man, It doesn't go to anything. It
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: only belongs to God. And and hallelujah. Hallelujah is a
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: word that you don't say just for anything. I believe
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: that words are so important and the word hallelujah should
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: only be given to God himself. That's why the sauce is,
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: My Hallelujah belongs to you. All the glories be lost
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: to him. He's only one that really deserves it, you know.
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: And I'm gonna taking a little bit of direction of
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: what I thought. You know, because I because like I said,
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: when I because I'm like I'm that I'm the everyday guy.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying that I'm I'm the everyday guy.
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: And like I told him earlier, you know, I'm not
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: a guy who shares my beliefs publicly all the time.
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: You know. Uh, And that's the that's pretty much everyday guy.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: You know. I for some reason in my mind, I
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: can't just let everybody know how important God is to
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: me every day. I'm still I'm battling with that. I'm
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: trying to figure that out myself. But that's what this
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: is what people do. But but I know when I
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: need him, He's number one in my on my on
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: my phone book and so and I'm just I'm just
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: trying to do what I'm trying to do with myself.
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: I'm trying to get everybody understand about their business life.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: So you know, when it says, uh, you deserve it,
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: what I took away from it is that everybody in
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: this room, everybody watching this, or everybody listening to the show,
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: you deserve it. That's what I when if I hear
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: that you deserve it. You deserve anything that you work
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: for as long as you apply it and believe it
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: and stay consistent with the opportunity towards success. That's what
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: I take away from that. Song. So every time you
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: hear that song, no, he's just telling you my Hallelujah
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: belongs to you. Go forward. That's what it is. Go forward.
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: You deserve it. Stop sitting around wondering is it my day,
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: isn't my week, it's in my year, It's right now.
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: You deserve it. That's what I took away from a
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: j J. I don't know if that's what you meant,
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: but I'm just a able this with little over Shan
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: little ball head thought about and say, hey man, every
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: time I hear that song, I feel good. Every time
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: I hear that song, I'm inspired. And so it was
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: that the goal when you when the when the song
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: was was put on paper, when it was recorded, and
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: when it was uttered out loud in public, what was
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: the goal of that song? See that? Okay, I'll be honest.
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: That wasn't the original message for the song, but that
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: you just touched on something I just talked to UM.
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: I was with a group of young people last week. UM.
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: They had like a youth conference and they had me
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: come in and share a little bit, and we talked
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: about it for so long. We prey, you know, we
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: just pray and wait, pray and wait, um, But the
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: Bible says that faith without works is dead. So if
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: you want to see something happen, you gotta do something.
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: Every every blessing in the Bible came with an instruction.
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: There was. God always says do this, and I'm gonna
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: do that everything. It could be something very small, something
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: very God asked you for something small, but at the
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: end he wanted you to take part in your miracle.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: If if He just consistently just throws that stuff at you,
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: you just become a lazy beggar. And that's not where
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: we are. We are people who are looking for God
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: to do something for us, but He's gonna use us
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: to get what we want for us. So if you,
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: like you said, if you if you want to write
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: a book, go do it. If you wanna. There's a
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: job you're looking for, don't sit at home and pray
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: about it. Pray about it, but then go throughout the
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: application and so and show them why you should be
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: the one working that job. If you want something to happen,
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: go and make it happen. Wow, ladies and gentlemen, you
