00:00Previously on Dev's House.
00:02I worry about a thing because I know my God got me.
00:04Tonight is industry night.
00:06I want to see if they got placed in a big room,
00:08how would they act?
00:09I need a fucking knee brace.
00:11I haven't stood on my feet for that long.
00:14Oh.
00:15I want to show y'all what I can do.
00:18What the hell is going on?
00:20That was not good.
00:21There won't be an 11-year-old girl
00:23that's going to be able to stand on her own two feet.
00:25I don't know what's going on.
00:26I don't know what's going on.
00:28That was not good.
00:29There won't be an elimination tonight.
00:31I can't believe it.
00:33They liars.
00:34This girl told us that she has been living
00:36with his dad for over a year.
00:38Them bitches a snake.
00:39I have never had paperwork from her.
00:40You're a snake.
00:40You are dismissed.
00:42You are dismissed.
00:44We about to make history.
00:49Came up from the bottom, forgotten
00:51where no one noticed you.
00:52We made it out the mud.
00:53It was destined.
00:54We the chosen few.
00:55Like a rose from the pavement, we were counted out.
00:57We grew up stronger from the struggle, never down and out.
01:00They used to pick us out of line-up.
01:01Now they light it up to see us, used to fear us.
01:03But now they want to be us.
01:05I'm on top now.
01:06I'm never coming down.
01:07I won't stop till I leave with the crown.
01:09This is Deb's house.
01:11I didn't say it.
01:12You did.
01:13What you going to do?
01:14My head ain't right there.
01:15Your way.
01:15Your way.
01:16Listen, you're not going to put your hands on me.
01:18I want to smack the shit out of her.
01:19But you ain't going to put your hands on me.
01:21You want me to.
01:22But you're not going to put your hands on me.
01:24I will, though.
01:25But you're not going to put your hands on me.
01:26I will, though.
01:27Put your hands on me.
01:29Yo, oh, she put her hands on you.
01:30Oh, I swear to God.
01:32Where I'm from in Charlotte, North Carolina,
01:34that was a pussy ass move.
01:36I swear to God.
01:37Same energy back at you, all of you.
01:41Damn, Tops.
01:42Oh, my God.
01:45Tell this bitch to get the fuck away.
01:47Listen, listen.
01:49She's embarrassing herself.
01:50I swear to God.
01:51So this bitch just smack the fuck out of me.
01:56Stop.
01:57I told you that she was eliminated.
01:58That's what happens when you try to be a street
02:00bitch and you really not, will you?
02:02That slam was for the house.
02:03And that was for their disrespecting.
02:05And that was for putting the whole competition
02:07in fucking jeopardy.
02:08You trying to fuck up my opportunity.
02:10She going to just take care of you
02:12like she wanted to really do something.
02:13That was for all of us.
02:14And I'll smack you the fuck again.
02:16Fuck out of here.
02:17I'm not perfect.
02:18I'm still working on my self-love journey.
02:20But this shit right here was disgusting.
02:25Fuck your smeak ass, bitch.
02:26We don't got a problem with them having a platform already.
02:28It's why you acting like it's not that.
02:30We all being vulnerable with each other.
02:32We sisters.
02:33We in this together.
02:34Does Miss Dab have favorites?
02:38Is a pig's pussy pork?
02:40OK, they know you.
02:41That's fine.
02:41But I don't talk to them.
02:42We really came here to grind, learn shit.
02:45So I'm like, damn, that hurted my feelings
02:46because we really loved you like damn, like.
02:49OK, so let me be clear on something.
02:51If they were big guys, would they be on the show?
02:55The source and myself handpicked these women.
02:59I'm the person that literally was on my computer.
03:02So the person that said thank you or thanks
03:05for the submission was me.
03:07So this ain't fake.
03:09But so some years ago, I tried to work with Honey B and Elektra.
03:14But they didn't work out.
03:15So I figured, OK, I'm going to bring you in Deb's house.
03:19But I'm not going to make no special warrants for you
03:22because we knew each other.
03:24And guess what?
03:26That just did not turn out well at all.
03:30I got it.
03:33I know words hurt.
03:36But I've learned to grow thick skin.
03:39This industry taught me how to grow thick skin.
03:43And if y'all can't take this little bit of shit,
03:45how you going to take what's going on there?
03:48What happens when you go to that show
03:49that somebody don't like you?
03:51What happens when you go somewhere
03:52and you think your bars are so good
03:54and people don't like your bars?
03:55What you going to do, fight everybody there?
03:57You understand?
03:58Are you going to curse everybody out there?
04:00Or if everybody that say something to you
04:02that you don't like, what you going to do?
04:03You going to fight them all?
04:05Some stuff you got to let it roll off.
04:08People will always judge a book by its cover.
04:11But I do go through things.
04:13I do take things to the heart sometimes.
04:17And thank you here because I want you here.
04:19My feelings got hurt because I feel like this lady
04:22is really looking past my physical.
04:25I found you and I liked you.
04:27I respect you because of how big you are.
04:30And you going for it.
04:31And you, there was no show that would
04:34take you with your record.
04:36I know.
04:37And have an open case.
04:38We knew that.
04:38But when them motherfuckers like, oh yeah,
04:40we know Ms. Dabble up in they house,
04:41that shit discouraged the shit out of me.
04:43I feel misled.
04:45And I feel very angry.
04:47And I feel upset.
04:48I feel disappointed.
04:50Electra did not like the fact that I said, do your homework.
04:54She's not in touch with who she is.
04:57That world is big.
04:59It's a big goddamn world out there.
05:03Deb was not wrong for dismissing me today.
05:06But she was wrong for inviting me.
05:09These girls have 10 years plus on me.
05:13These girls are from the streets.
05:15You know I moved out to the suburbs at 10.
05:17I'm not a hardcore rapper.
05:19I'm not from the streets.
05:20It's not what I talk about.
05:21It's not what I do.
05:25If anything, I should have been protected from this moment.
05:28And I wasn't.
05:29If I could do it over again, I would have trusted my gut
05:32and not came.
05:34See, I don't listen to gossip.
05:37I'm not listening to all that shit.
05:39That shit hurt you.
05:40I learned a valuable lesson.
05:42I'm just going to take all these lessons
05:44and put them into real life when I get back home.
05:49You think that you can do stuff that you can't do,
05:52but you wasn't willing to learn.
05:54Because you want everything handed to you.
05:56That's not true.
05:57I'm going to go home, work even harder, and rock out.
05:59Because this is just what I needed
06:01to be my push to really even be more hungry for it.
06:05I'm ready.
06:06Prove it.
06:14I'm ready.
06:19Chuck, you want to know something
06:20that's hurting me right now?
06:21I said under no circumstances could
06:23there be any hand throwing.
06:25I'm not going to go for that.
06:27Even if you have a disagreement,
06:29you can speak without hitting me.
06:31Because you slapped her.
06:34I can't keep you.
06:37It can't happen.
06:39And that shit is hurting me.
06:42Because you are another one that I really,
06:46really want to get into.
06:47That wasn't right.
06:51You don't understand.
06:52I stood up for everything.
06:54I understand.
06:55And I appreciate that.
06:57I got to let Chuck go.
06:58Doesn't matter if he was thinking
07:00that she was protecting me.
07:02I'm not going to let her do nothing to me.
07:03But I appreciate that.
07:05But you can't fight.
07:07You put your hands on somebody.
07:09You got to go.
07:10You got to keep your chin up.
07:12We still got standing shit we do.
07:13Do you hear what I'm telling you?
07:15You have to stand what you do.
07:17You can't fuck up and be crying like a pussy.
07:19You know where we from.
07:20You from Philly.
07:21Tuck that shit up.
07:22Stand on business.
07:23You did what you did, bro.
07:25You straight.
07:26We got you.
07:27I'm going to miss Hot Choc's energy.
07:29I'm going to miss her good vibes.
07:31I'm going to miss the real conversations.
07:33I'm going to miss her presence for sure.
07:35I want you to know that I appreciate you.
07:37Do you hear me?
07:38Yes.
07:39This is not over.
07:40You're walking out this door, but you're
07:42not walking out of my life.
07:44Do you understand me?
07:45Yes.
07:50Oh my god, it hurt me so bad to let Choc go.
08:00I have to take a break.
08:02I have to take a break.
08:05Each time I have to send a girl home, it really, really hurts.
08:08It hurt me to send Hot Choc out of there again,
08:12because I really believe Hot Choc
08:14is a very talented young lady.
08:18You didn't have to do this, sweetie.
08:19Thank god you got me feeling so bad.
08:23I should have never put them two on this show.
08:26I thought it would help.
08:28And Choc, I don't want her to go nowhere.
08:31I want them to make it.
08:33Electra and Honey B really hurt me,
08:36but you've caused me pain in that area.
08:39But you've also let me know that you're still not ready.
08:43Electra said I treated her bad.
08:48Did you really fucking say that?
08:50I'm not protected.
08:52I ain't.
08:52Give me the names.
08:53Give me the names of these girls.
08:54I'm pressing charges here.
08:57Give me the names here.
08:58Thank you.
09:00Hey, so I heard you don't feel safe.
09:04She wants to file charges on not just Choc, but Rocky, too.
09:08But Rocky didn't put her hands on you.
09:10I didn't sign up to get abused in your house
09:12or to be threatened in your house.
09:14I didn't sign up for that.
09:17So I will be pressing charges on them, too.
09:19Rocky, you swear you anti-bully?
09:22But you bully, period.
09:23I didn't even expect you to even allow that.
09:25So I will be pressing charges on them, too.
09:28She put my opportunity in jeopardy.
09:30And I don't fuck with that.
09:32I'm not telling you that you don't have that right.
09:35And just remember that another threat can come back.
09:38Because you also, if security didn't grab you,
09:41it would have been something.
09:42Remember, I told y'all from the very beginning,
09:44there was no fighting in this house.
09:46So Hot Choc did pop you in your mouth.
09:48That she did do.
09:50But Rocky never touched you.
09:52But it's drama.
09:53It's abuse in here.
09:55It's verbal abuse in here.
09:56It's bullying in here.
09:58And it's still in your house.
10:00Why you allowing that?
10:02Any woman that loves herself would never
10:06put another woman down to make herself feel like she's up.
10:10When you have a lack of self-esteem,
10:12and you have a lack of self-love,
10:13you put other women down.
10:15I'm not perfect, OK?
10:17Never tried to be.
10:18I know that.
10:19Ever since on these confessions, I've been saying,
10:21I'm here to listen, learn, and work.
10:23I'm not coming here to be abused,
10:24disrespected, or none of that.
10:26I didn't sign up for that.
10:27I came here and gave all these women respect.
10:31And they disrespected me.
10:33Fuck y'all.
10:34I've been on my shit every damn day,
10:36just so you don't say no shit to me.
10:38And I ain't disrespected none of them women down there.
10:41I ain't called nobody out they name.
10:42I ain't done none of that shit.
10:44And I ain't put my hands on nobody.
10:57Honeybee, everything that goes on,
11:00you feel that you're the one that validates it,
11:03and this is how it's supposed to be.
11:05You feel that way.
11:07I asked you to help me.
11:08How can I help?
11:09Of course I'm going to have feelings about it.
11:11I asked you to help me.
11:12Help you how?
11:13With producers, with writers, with everything.
11:16I asked you to build me.
11:18You know how many times I asked you to build me?
11:21I asked you to build me.
11:23To build you?
11:24I asked you to build me and train me.
11:26But I can't.
11:27You still have yet to do it.
11:28I can't do it because of your mouth.
11:31You still are the way that you are.
11:32No, you just hearing how I feel.
11:33This is the first time.
11:34Listen to me, listen.
11:35This is the first time.
11:35Listen to me.
11:36Don't get it mixed up because you're doing this right now.
11:39Let me tell you something about you and Elektra.
11:43The two same things.
11:45The two things that y'all have in common.
11:47Y'all have mothers that love y'all unconditionally.
11:51Is that a problem?
11:52Sometimes it is.
11:54I'm one.
11:55I handed my children because of how much I love them.
11:59And I didn't allow them to fly their wings the way
12:01they were supposed to.
12:03I felt that I'm the person that's supposed to get in there
12:05and do everything and shield and protect them.
12:07So when they get out there to have to really do stuff,
12:10they didn't know how to deal with some of that stuff.
12:14It's not a problem.
12:14It's not bad because I'm that mother too.
12:18I love hard.
12:21But you're at that point that you got to fly wings
12:23and I'm not your mother.
12:25I didn't sign up to get beat or to be abused in your house.
12:28What could she be saying right now?
12:30She's fighting for her case.
12:31Now Ms. Dab knows who she really is.
12:33And she can't hide who she really is.
12:35And we exposed that.
12:36Whatever she's saying upstairs,
12:37I feel like she could have said downstairs is my piece.
12:40Everybody spoke their piece.
12:42She always looked down on us.
12:43You think so, from the start?
12:45She always looked down on us, but you're homeless.
12:47You got nowhere to go.
12:49Then, honey, it's fake.
12:50Like, we call her Lucy.
12:52Short for Lucifer.
12:54Lucy, Lucifer is bitch, honey.
12:57You got to go.
12:58You said a lot of things, sweetie.
12:59And those things hurt me.
13:01You know the difference between you and Rocky?
13:03She don't give a damn how I feel.
13:04She's telling me how she feels.
13:06She's telling me what's going on.
13:07But she disrespected you.
13:09No, she didn't.
13:09She called you fake.
13:11That's OK.
13:12That's OK.
13:13If she felt that way because you in a lecture was here,
13:17I would feel that way.
13:18If it was me.
13:19If you represent women empowerment,
13:21why are you keeping people here?
13:23That are still disrespectful to women.
13:25What does that?
13:26Listen to me.
13:27How do you allow that?
13:28How do you think that that's OK?
13:31They still in your house.
13:33Why are you allowing that?
13:35I just say I feel threatened by you sitting up here yelling
13:37at me and going through all of this.
13:39That feels threatening.
13:40So if you're so cool about the women thing and positivity,
13:44then why are you going to that?
13:45How do you think that that's OK?
13:47You're saying that I fake?
13:48For another woman to talk other women down.
13:51How do you think that's OK?
13:53That ain't self-love.
13:54That ain't women empowerment.
13:57That's not that.
13:59That's not self-love.
14:03Honey B's whole thing is the good vibes
14:05and no bad energy and self-love queen
14:08and everything good in the world.
14:12Honestly, if you ask me, it always gave a question mark.
14:15Honey B, I don't let people buck up in my face.
14:18But I knew this, that I'm dealing with a lot
14:21of firecrackers also.
14:23And I have to allow people to vent and get this stuff out.
14:26Venting out and saying what you want to say
14:29is freedom of speech.
14:30This is America.
14:31I just let you sit here and say what you got to say
14:34and yell at me and go through all this stuff.
14:36And you ain't never did it before, but you did it now.
14:39And I allowed you to do that.
14:40And I ain't mad at you about that.
14:43I'm happy you could speak up.
14:44I'm happy to know that you got a voice.
14:47This is not personal.
14:48It's business.
14:49Exactly.
14:50You'd understand as you grow up.
14:53You'll see it for yourself, too.
14:55Listen, you cannot preach self-love, self-care,
15:00and not be good on the inside and be a jealous girl
15:03on the inside and be envious.
15:05You know what I'm saying?
15:06You can't do that.
15:06That's crazy.
15:07I mean, you can.
15:09You can.
15:10But you can preach it, but it turns into this.
15:13I'm not mad at you.
15:20It's yours with this rap shade.
15:23Look at me.
15:24Hold your motherfucking head up.
15:25Rocky is extremely sad about Hot Choc leaving.
15:28And I feel her because, you know,
15:30Hot Choc is our sis for real.
15:31And she's real.
15:32And I'm so glad that her and Rocky
15:34were able to get over all of the problems
15:35they had because they got to do this for Philly.
15:38I just should have punched her.
15:39Like, if I'm going home, I should have balled my fist up.
15:41Baby.
15:42I should have blacked her out.
15:43Baby.
15:43I should have knocked her the fuck out.
15:45Baby.
15:46I literally smacked her in the face.
15:47Baby.
15:48Baby.
15:49I literally smacked you with these two fingers.
15:51I know you did.
15:52These little ass fingers.
15:53We all fall short of the glory of the Lord.
15:56But I wouldn't have been mad had you done it.
16:00I'm just saying.
16:02Oh, man.
16:03I got cut twice.
16:05So the second time, it didn't, it doesn't feel as bad.
16:10But at the same time, I feel like I
16:12let a bitch trick me out my spot.
16:13And I know better than that.
16:15So hurt deep like a knife.
16:17But I know I went out like a, went out with a bang.
16:19So for everybody in the house, all my sisters,
16:23and for that, put my mic up.
16:32I'm sorry, y'all.
16:33I'm mad.
16:34It's OK. Don't be mad.
16:35It's all right.
16:35I'm mad.
16:36We love you.
16:37We're all winners.
16:38I love you, too.
16:40We love you.
16:41Three women got eliminated.
16:42It's only four of us left.
16:44I did build some bonds with Choc, Electra.
16:49I don't hold no ill will towards her.
16:51But Honey B, I can't fuck with.
16:55What I would do differently is stay
16:59on the other side of the room.
17:01So I wouldn't have been able to get
17:03that close to the girl to, you know.
17:07That was the one thing I would have changed.
17:09Dev's house season one.
17:12I guess I left with a bang, right?
17:13I did.
17:16And it's a fucking wreck.
17:19Oh, man.
17:20Motherfucking Honey B, that bitch an actor.
17:23Fuck you, hoe.
17:26I don't have any regrets.
17:28I don't have any regrets.
17:30Overlooking North Carolina talent,
17:33that's not a good call.
17:35But to each his own.
17:39You won't ever find another Nicki Minaj.
17:42Why?
17:43Because it's only one Nicki Minaj.
17:45It's only one Honey B.
17:48So that's just what it is.
17:51I came in with a pure heart, with love,
17:55with genuine intentions.
17:56I know exactly who I am, and I know
17:59what I'm going to do for the world and for my culture.
18:14All right, guys.
18:15We had a rough morning.
18:16And we lost three people.
18:19So what we feeling?
18:20I'm sad.
18:21Honestly, it feels quiet.
18:22It feels quiet.
18:23It feels almost empty because we're so used to having them.
18:26I want to apologize.
18:28I really, really thought I was doing something good.
18:30I thought bringing them here, it would help them to learn
18:33what hip hop was really about.
18:36And it's not just studio, and it's not just all that stuff.
18:39I got to clear up them insecurities in you.
18:42I got to clear up all this stuff
18:44so that you won't allow nothing to knock you down.
18:48That hurt me like hell for Choc because she's really,
18:52really been doing good.
18:53But I've seen growth.
18:55I've seen all of y'all how you are.
18:58I seen that.
19:00Some people you got to work on a little bit more.
19:03I just feel like Ms. Dad, she know what I'm going through.
19:07You can't do this shit alone is what I'm learning.
19:09I got myself to a high point enough
19:11that motherfuckers could believe in what I got going on.
19:14Today, we went through a lot of drama.
19:17And today, we're going in the studio.
19:19Yeah.
19:21Finally, right?
19:22We're going to the studio.
19:23That's what we're here for.
19:24Let's get it.
19:25What I want to hear is you.
19:29OK.
19:30I have a very, very good friend that came today.
19:33So here's another challenge.
19:37I had to jump on the phone and get none
19:39other than Jaleel Knight, super-duper producer.
19:43Jaleel is a beast.
19:45He can write and create beats right there on the spot.
19:50And guess what?
19:51Jaleel is 100% blind.
19:55He got those beats.
19:56You got to bring them words.
19:58I want to give you an opportunity
20:00to really work and collaborate with a producer,
20:04not a beat maker.
20:05They only have two days to record this song.
20:09That means they have to write and record.
20:11What these ladies don't know is they
20:13have a crowd that's waiting for them in the New
20:16York Fashion District tomorrow.
20:18Let's see what happens there.
20:20Thank you.
20:21I'm excited.
20:22I'm ecstatic.
20:23I just can't wait to make some new music.
20:25Yes, thank you so much.
20:26I need you to sit here with me for a minute, OK?
20:29Come sit right here with me.
20:30It's hard for me to get up when he's coming out.
20:32I want you to keep doing it, because guess
20:34what, you've been doing good.
20:35Last night, I seen Dent crying.
20:37I am.
20:37I just, I don't know.
20:39I need at least, like, an ankle brace and a knee brace.
20:41So let me find out what's going on here.
20:43I understand what it's like to kind of carry weight.
20:48I just lost a massive amount of weight.
20:51I was 310 pounds, and I'm down now to 221, all right?
20:54You feel different?
20:55In three months, I feel totally different.
20:57I can breathe.
20:58I couldn't breathe.
21:00When I caught COVID, I was on oxygen tanks.
21:05Like, crazy.
21:07I couldn't go up and down the stairs.
21:09I couldn't do all these things.
21:10But if people didn't force my hand,
21:13I would still be laid up just like that.
21:16But I had to fight that shit through.
21:18And that's what you got to do, Dank.
21:20After my leg got hurt, I got up to all the way to 598.
21:24I ended up losing weight on my own
21:27after I found out I was 598.
21:29But when I came into this house,
21:31I was against getting another surgery,
21:33because I just felt like it was just too much.
21:38But now, I guess I'm going to reconsider it,
21:41because now I see that you have to be smaller in order
21:45to do it, you know?
21:46In order to be in this industry.
21:48So I want you to learn that you're
21:50going to take charge in you, OK?
21:53So you got to set some goals.
21:55I'm trying to wing it, and I'm trying to prove to Miss Deb
21:59that I got this, you know?
22:01I didn't expect it to be, like, this hard.
22:04Thank you, Deb.
22:05You're welcome, baby.
22:10Ready for the studio?
22:11Girl, yes.
22:17You've seen enough drama.
22:19It is that time now you get to see what they going to do.
22:23But I need them to understand the difference between
22:26a producer and a beat maker.
22:29Someone that would help you along the lines
22:31while you're doing your music.
22:33And we're going to make some songs,
22:35because they have some people that they
22:36have to perform for.
22:37Should have been here earlier.
22:39They was popping.
22:40So this is straight reality.
22:42I'm also going to bring back Londell McMillan,
22:45owner of The Sauce.
22:47He has worked with Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, Prince.
22:51My baby hoops are on up.
22:53Hello.
22:54How are you?
22:54I'm great.
22:55So I'm going to bring in a writer,
22:57which is Londell McMillan's daughter.
23:00I'm going to bring Kyla Imani in.
23:03Kyla has been co-signed.
23:08Pin game is really good.
23:09Vocals is on point.
23:11It's a very special day.
23:12I see you got your man here.
23:14This guy here.
23:14Jaleel.
23:15Jaleel, what it do?
23:17Yo, what's up?
23:18What's up, man?
23:18What's up?
23:19I had a surprise guest today.
23:23This Tracy Morgan.
23:24What's up, Pop?
23:25Give me some.
23:25What's happening, man?
23:26Hey, break a leg, man.
23:27Break a leg.
23:28How you feel?
23:29Hey, man, I'm good.
23:30Tracy Morgan.
23:32I love Tracy.
23:33Tracy's, like, so cool.
23:34Once upon a time, Tracy lived in that house.
23:37So he blessed us with his presence.
23:46Hi.
23:47Hey, everybody.
23:48Tracy Morgan.
23:50I can't fucking believe this is going on.
23:57I can't fucking believe this is going on.
23:59Hello, how are you doing?
24:00Who Camille?
24:01I'm excited to see you, Tracy.
24:03Hey.
24:04So nice to meet y'all, Dave.
24:05This is super surprising to me.
24:07I'm super excited to get to meet him.
24:09The last thing I watched at film was the last OG,
24:11which was super funny.
24:13Tracy's like my brother.
24:14Why you here?
24:16I'm here to see you.
24:17I'm here to see you.
24:18I'm here to see you.
24:19I'm here to see you.
24:20I'm here to see you.
24:21I'm here to see you.
24:22I'm here to see you.
24:23I'm here to see you.
24:24I'm here to see you.
24:25I'm here to see you.
24:26Well, there's your little son, Sam.
24:28Speak to the ladies about the industry.
24:30Understand what is important and what's valuable.
24:35Life gives you chances, and it gives you choices.
24:38Put more value in your choices, because that can determine
24:41the outcome of your life.
24:43You're very valuable to you.
24:46Let that be known.
24:47We're going to do you from the cradle to the grave.
24:50Do you.
24:51When you look at my documentary,
24:53They use the word authentic a lot.
24:56It gotta be authentic.
24:58It gotta come from here.
25:00Authenticity, you gotta know who you are
25:03and what you are.
25:04Be authentic with it.
25:06Yo, this is me.
25:08I'm sorry, but I don't know how to be no other way.
25:11I've been this for a long time.
25:14I love this.
25:15I love me.
25:16I don't see anything wrong with me.
25:17I'm not gonna be out here going to Sisua
25:21and buying this and buying that just to impress anyone.
25:23I'm really into the work.
25:25It's about the work
25:26because that's the only thing that's gonna stay.
25:28Just to be able to draw from something,
25:29you have to go through stuff.
25:31And I know one, two, three, four have been through stuff.
25:34I know I have.
25:36That's why when I need to use it,
25:38I go right in my back pocket and I get my feelings out.
25:41If I need to be in my feelings, I'll be going in.
25:43The last OG, first Sunday,
25:45when Loretta Devon got me crying,
25:47I just told him where I was in my mind.
25:50And then after we did it, director said, cut.
25:52Gave me five minutes to go get myself together
25:54because we still got to film.
25:56Y'all brand new.
25:57Y'all just started.
25:58But you never know where this could take you.
26:01This is not checkers.
26:02This is checks.
26:04Don't hurt yourself or your career.
26:08To this day, I still think about my career.
26:11You know what I want y'all to hear what he said?
26:13Do you see that he still thinks about his career
26:16and where he's going?
26:17And that's Tracy Morgan.
26:19Do your thing.
26:20Y'all all know what y'all got to do.
26:22Y'all know what y'all got to do right now?
26:24Go to work.
26:24I'll see y'all later.
26:25Give me five.
26:26Thank you.
26:27Thank you.
26:28Go to work.
26:29I ain't talking to stand myself talk either.
26:30I'm happy that I met Tracy Morgan
26:32and he has done legendary stuff.
26:33This is what it's going to be now.
26:36You have to grow.
26:37You have to thrive.
26:38You have to reach new heights.
26:39So Tracy, thank you for the opportunity.
26:43Jaleel is who you guys are going to work with.
26:46And he also stated, let me just let y'all know that too.
26:48So it ain't a secret.
26:50We're going to make some music, Jaleel.
26:51We're going to show these people what you know how to do.
26:53I'm with him.
26:54That's good.
26:55The biggest thing is they got to know who you are.
26:58They need to connect with you.
27:00There's a hundred thousand people out there right now.
27:02That's rapping.
27:04What makes you stand apart from all the people
27:06that are there?
27:07I'm different because on some real shit,
27:10everything I talk about, I really live that shit.
27:12What makes me different from other rappers
27:15is that I'm the best.
27:16I know that, you know, a lot of people be like,
27:18I feel like, but I know.
27:20I'm giving Afro, Naija flavor,
27:23as well as hip hop, American, everything.
27:26I'm an it girl, the shit girl,
27:28need a bit for my drip girl.
27:30Rocky, you're going to do the first beat.
27:33Let's see if you like this.
27:37You know how to sing?
27:39Can I sing a chorus for you?
27:40So go ahead.
27:41Go on with her.
27:42You want to go on with her?
27:43Yeah.
27:44Come on, what you want?
27:44Yeah, come on.
27:45Yo, I'm 19, shit, I'm just having my son
27:48and his father just up and left.
27:49That's when the struggle begun.
27:51And I'm hurting cause what's the purpose?
27:52Shit was stressing me out.
27:54All this Rocky just had patience.
27:55Shit ain't helping me out.
27:56The landlord, he at the door,
27:58that nigga kicking us out.
27:59I had a homie, mine was through.
28:01She let me sleep on the couch.
28:02My whole team, a bunch of snakes,
28:04them bitches living in doubt.
28:05I had to cut them bitches off.
28:07They started running they mouth.
28:08Back in 2022, June,
28:11I lost my baby brother to gun violence.
28:14Three weeks before that, I lost my uncle.
28:16And it kind of fucked me up to the point where
28:19I kind of almost didn't want to rap no more.
28:21It ain't no telling if I, will I ever make it.
28:24Who would I be to give up?
28:25And my brother never missed a show of mine,
28:27or you know what I'm saying?
28:28My uncle, he always rooted for me no matter what.
28:30And I just can't stop.
28:32Take that vocal and pace it throughout the whole song.
28:34Like it's one of them joints where it's like,
28:36it's not the hook, it's a part of the beat at this point.
28:40Don't never tell me bye.
28:41I'm asking God why.
28:43Why my daddy die?
28:45But y'all gotta shine.
28:46I'm going to change the rap game for other girls like me
28:49because I am a proven example.
28:51Don't let nobody tell you that you can't do something.
28:54Just keep doing it.
28:55I want to give Queen Izzy and Camille something
29:00where they could go at it and y'all gonna come back.
29:02My beat ends up being Queen Izzy's beat.
29:05Well, Queen Izzy's beat ends up being our beat.
29:08We're partners.
29:10We're not doing an individual song.
29:12What's really going on here?
29:14Queen Izzy, you look like you ready, girl.
29:16I'm ready. I'm just so excited to hear the beat.
29:18Are we ready for that beat, Jaleel?
29:20Yeah.
29:21I remember back in 2012, high school, ninth grade,
29:24growing up, I was on the step team.
29:26Classmates show me love.
29:28I don't know any other female rapper from Africa
29:30bridging the gap the way I am.
29:31I'm giving them hip hop.
29:32I'm giving them indigenous sounds.
29:34I'm giving them melodies.
29:35I'm giving them flows.
29:36I'm giving them rap.
29:37So I feel like this is just going to raise the bar
29:40and let everybody know with any type of immigrant descent
29:42that they can do it.
29:43You don't have to be what people expect you to be.
29:46I put a little kick in it, kick in it.
29:49I'ma sit down, I'ma kick in it.
29:52Why they mad?
29:53Because I ain't got no sad story.
29:54It's going to come when I start putting the pen to the pad.
29:57Get a little time.
29:58I ain't really mad.
29:59Do that make me lame?
30:00Do that make me corny?
30:02When it's time to record, I'm coming to the studio.
30:05It's work for me.
30:06You know what I'm saying?
30:07It's work for me.
30:08This is my job.
30:08I have to clock in and I got to be there.
30:11This is what I'm here for.
30:12You want to see something?
30:13I'ma show you something.
30:13You think I'm scared in the studio?
30:14Ain't nobody scared.
30:15I'm trying to figure this shit out.
30:16This is what I wanted to see.
30:18The job is to now release.
30:20And when y'all start releasing this stuff up off your chest,
30:23you're going to feel so much lighter.
30:25It's therapeutic.
30:27It's difficult sometimes.
30:29For me, sometimes it's hard for me to talk about me.
30:32It's like, but it was hard for me to talk about my son
30:35committing suicide.
30:37That was the hardest thing for a black person
30:40to get up there to say they committed suicide
30:42because there's no, we don't commit suicide.
30:45But I told that.
30:47My child committed suicide.
30:49And if he didn't say what he said to me the night before,
30:52I probably wouldn't be right in my head right now.
30:55Then my first son, 10 years old, my neighbor ran him over.
31:00I basically acted like I'd never even had him.
31:04So we all have pain.
31:05We all have a story.
31:06And then I started finding myself in all of y'all.
31:11I could actually relate to why she's crying
31:13because my dad died too.
31:16My dad is like my motivation for real.
31:19I grew up watching my dad rap
31:21and watching him produce, engineer,
31:24and have his own studio.
31:26So my dad basically inspired me.
31:28Anyway, we're going to leave it to y'all
31:29to do what y'all do.
31:30And I'm going to trust and believe
31:33that y'all going to make me God damn proud.
31:36We will, you know the vibe.
31:37Okay, we out.
31:39One of the things that's great about Kyla
31:40is she writes good.
31:42It's her pen game.
31:42And they can have fun to learn how to collaborate.
31:45The past year, I've been working as a writer
31:47under Stargain and working with a bunch of rappers
31:50and artists.
31:51So I'm really like, anything I do suggest,
31:53I would love you try it.
31:54Like, I really am just here for what's best for the song.
31:58And if you don't fuck with it, like, let me know.
32:00We could cut it out.
32:01Like, nothing's permanent.
32:02All just to like, really make the best song for y'all.
32:06So.
32:12Use those lyrics in particular.
32:13We thought the third line to change it up
32:14for being so boring and repetitive.
32:16Gotta keep going, stay in my lane.
32:18Pen to the pad.
32:18Pen to the pad, keeping me sane.
32:19Yeah, cause we do this a lot.
32:21Yeah.
32:22The beat y'all made was so fun.
32:25Yeah.
32:26And like.
32:27So you want a lighter mood is what you're saying?
32:30Not necessarily.
32:31I'm just saying like, this what we do.
32:33I think that'll come in the delivery
32:34of what we're saying though.
32:36I really honestly think that we work really good together.
32:39I enjoy working with songwriters
32:41because stronger together, if you ask me.
32:44I'm not sure if the, like,
32:47if the beat is not giving you pain.
32:49Also don't feel like limited to talk about that.
32:51Like, I think, was the assignment talk about pain
32:54or talk about you?
32:55Have a story.
32:56I'ma have a story.
32:57The story.
32:57You know what, honestly?
32:58Okay.
32:59I can give you that.
33:01For the chorus, I'm trying to like,
33:04stick with like, like remembering the bad shit,
33:07but at the end of the bad shit, like, we good.
33:10Right.
33:11I think with hooks, like,
33:13the most important thing for me
33:15is speaking from the heart and being simple.
33:18And I think the simpler and the more raw and real it is,
33:24I think that's, what's going to cut.
33:26Like you got on, started doing all these oohs.
33:28Like, that melody is fire.
33:32Pen to the pad.
33:33Keeping you saying, yeah, got you.
33:35Pen to the pad.
33:36Comma.
33:36That's a pause.
33:38I think it could be,
33:40you would never know in like,
33:42some sample chop kind of vibe.
33:45Like maybe your voice is pitched up or pitched down.
33:48And then you still do the chorus.
33:51This girl, she's a melodic artist.
33:53She's young.
33:54She give me like, you know, little sister vibe.
33:56Nobody can write my bars.
33:57Period.
33:59I'm an authentic type of rapper.
34:00So in order to get in this motherfucking door,
34:01you got to really step with what the fuck you saying.
34:10Run it back one more time.
34:11Got you.
34:12And we lit.
34:13I love this song.
34:14It's actually a banger.
34:15It's a banger.
34:16So today is the day that we are recording our music.
34:18Okay.
34:19We wrote the music, but now it's time to lay it down.
34:21And we have a very tight schedule.
34:24We have to do this very quickly.
34:25I understand everything can't be pussy pop.
34:28And you do got to set an example.
34:29And this is real.
34:30They going to go through heartbreak.
34:32If they're ready.
34:33I think I'm going to record my verse though.
34:34Like just get it out the way.
34:35See, I'm not used to this.
34:36I just go in the booth.
34:37You know what I'm saying?
34:38It's time to get back to the music.
34:39I'm over the drama.
34:40I'm over the BS.
34:41Like, let's make this music.
34:42Let's, let's make it here.
34:43Let's make this record.

35:02Do it again.
35:03One more time.
35:04With the hard body?
35:05Yeah, it's the hard body.
35:06What is it?
35:07Is it the hard body?
35:08It's like the hard is slightly off.
35:09Okay.
35:09So hard body.
35:10What's the small thing to a giant?
35:12I might have to move my body.
35:13Hard body.
35:14I got you.
35:14I got to bounce with you.
35:15You got to move in the studio.
35:16All right, let's do it.
35:17I'm talking too much.
35:18Honestly, I'm receptive to what Jaleel has to say.
35:22I like a producer to tell me what to do.
35:24I like the guidance in the studio.
35:26Hard body.
35:27What's the small thing to a giant?
35:29Yeah, I like that better.
35:30If you just in my session pushing a button, get out.
35:33A-W-D-I-W.
35:34All we do is work.
35:36We're not just pushing no buttons.
35:37We working.
35:38Can we record?
35:39We straight?
35:40You can start from the very beginning.
35:43Sis, I'm stalking cause I'm still on him.
35:46You know we really need to stop it.
35:48Facts.
35:49I'm toxic.
35:51Hey.
35:52Why?

35:53Hold on.
35:54Now do it again for me.
35:55You sound like you wistful about it.
35:56Like you, it's kind of like, it's like no feeling there.
36:00I don't like break up my takes.
36:01I'm annoyed because I have a type of way
36:04I'm trying to take my takes
36:06and a type of way that I'm used to.
36:08I know the emotion that I attend behind my verse.
36:10So I feel like he should just trust my process
36:12and trust my vision with where I'm trying to go.
36:14Look, I'm hoping that I served it.
36:16Fuck that I'm perping.
36:17Fuck that I miss you.
36:18Wish I could run in your arms and just kiss you.
36:21Wish I could live all my days, baby, with you.
36:23I'm ready to risk it all to come
36:25I love what I'm doing on this song.
36:27And I feel like what I'm doing on the song
36:29is all that matters.
36:30Can we get in the fucking studio?
36:32Girl, I'm not taking the fucking studio.
36:34She said, yo, get the fuck out of there.
36:36Get the fuck out.
36:39We finally getting to the studio and I'm excited.
36:45Cause you already know I got the heat.
36:4730 minutes on the clock.
36:48I was just 19.
36:50Shit, I'm just having my son and his father just up and left.
36:53That's when the struggle began.
36:54And I'm hurting cause what's the purpose?
36:56Shit was stressing me out.
36:57All this Rocky just had patience.
36:59Shit ain't helping me out.
37:00I'm excited.
37:01I feel like I'm getting in my element.
37:03I like my beat.
37:04It's cool.
37:04I like the melody and all that.
37:06I'm fucking with it.

37:09You want to try going straight through
37:10or you want to punch in?
37:12Let me do the hook first.
37:13At this point, I'm nervous as hell.
37:15The beat that I ended up with, it's just not my style.
37:19I don't want to hear it at all.
37:20So the track is already muted?
37:22Okay.
37:23I don't like it.
37:25That beat in particular is just not for me.

38:17Where my mama not talkin', why she sobbin' everywhere
38:20Ooh.
38:24The beat that the producer gave me is not for me.
38:28I'm not upset, but I'm frustrated. You know, I'm frustrated at this point.
38:33Okay.
38:38Man, what, what, what you gotta say, man?
38:50You just own that beat. Say, I like the song. Hey, you did a good job.
38:54Listen, man, that was a good work. Thank you.

39:00and you supposed to feel like nobody can fuck with you.
39:06So today, the ladies will be going into the city to Darucci Leather.
39:11Darucci Leather is a brand that's been around for a long time.
39:14It's a brand that's been around for a long time.

39:41I'm ready to try some shit on.
39:44Hey, how you doing?
39:46Excellent.
39:47Fashion plays a major role in being a celebrity.
39:51A lot of people come here to get coached, right?
39:53A lot of them.
39:54You dress a lot of people.
39:55Yep, yep, I do.
39:56Y'all are here to do a photo shoot.
40:00Getting ready, picking out that fur for that photo shoot.
40:03What these ladies don't know is they have to create a whole new look
40:07because they have some people that they have to perform for tonight.
40:11This is the glow up. I want to see your flavor.
40:14And guess what? One of my girls might make it to be a brand for Darucci.
40:22I need to introduce you to Zo.

40:24Which is Darucci. This is his shop, okay?
40:27We welcome you guys here.
40:29Ash is going to be helping you guys around the store to see what fits you guys the best.
40:35We have to choose a look out of all of the looks here and style it on ourselves.
40:40I think it looks like me.
40:41Always so bright and full of life.
40:43I have my own style of fashion.
40:45As an artist and performer, I need to wear certain things and look a certain way.
40:50Yo, this is a Rocky store.
40:52You got to just show yourself.
40:53The fur, the color, all it.
41:09I don't know. I feel like that stank is having some issues.
41:26Don't nobody zip furs. They wear furs open.
41:30I don't really have many options to choose from.
41:33They're pointing me to a section where it's only like shawls.
41:38I don't know what else to do.
41:42Janky in here, honestly, that's the one thing that will cover you.
41:47You have to be covered.
41:48The poncho is the best thing for you to be covered with.
41:51That's the best one.
41:53Some matter of like, it's staying on me.
41:57You could take the zipper down or keep the zipper on.
42:00I feel like I need to sit down right now because
42:03I've been here for all these weeks and I'm pushing myself.
42:08That's really cute.
42:09I feel like I'm just winging it.
42:11Today is a day to where I'm like, I need a break. I need to sit down.
42:17Come on, let's try something.
42:19Unfortunately, don't have any clothes in her size.
42:21She's not really in the best mood,
42:23but as her sisters, we're just trying to be there for her.
42:26Damn, you look like a boss ass.
42:28I do?
42:28Big dank mommy. What it do, baby?
42:30All right, let me see.
42:32Let me see.
42:34She better like this shit.
42:35It's go time.
42:36You just gotta work for what you got right now.
42:39You still look good. That look good.
42:41Don't do that. She needs a bigger size.
42:43Thank you.
42:44Ain't no bigger size.
42:44So I picked this.
42:46You need a baby size.
42:47I feel like a boss ass.
42:48How about no vest?
42:50How about you ask him?
42:52Can you get me something?
43:07I picked this.
43:08So you found something else to ask him?
43:12How about you ask him?
43:14Can you get me something?
43:15You say what you like.
43:18I like this.
43:18I would like for it to zip up on me.
43:21I got you.
43:21Yeah, that's all I want her to do.
43:24Is to just say that.
43:25Do you got something like this in my size?
43:26We can make it for you.
43:29Anything can be made.
43:30When can you make it?
43:32Whatever you like, we're going to make it for you.
43:33That's not a problem.
43:34You just gave me seven to 10 days.
43:36I get it done for you.
43:37Yeah, everything going to be cool.
43:40I don't think that it's hard for a big dang to ask for help.
43:43I think that everybody has their own niche
43:45and everybody has their own way of doing things.
43:47I think that this whole experience in general
43:49is something that we're all not used to.
43:51So we really don't know sometimes what's OK to do
43:54and what's not OK.
43:55We try to respect our boundaries.
43:57I can't do nothing with that.
43:58I'm not comfortable in that.
43:59I feel like I'm winging it.
44:01So I just went to the men's.
44:03I feel like I'm winging it.
44:04Tell me what you mean when you say you're winging it.
44:06Explain that to me.
44:07When I put it on, it's like...
44:10I want you up and I'm going to sit there
44:12and you're going to be in front of me
44:13where you can present me.
44:14One of the things that I keep telling you
44:16is you have to understand
44:16when you go on that stage, you can't sit.
44:19You're going to have to start doing something
44:21to be able to be up.
44:23You got to be up.
44:24Let me see that on you.
44:32So is that your size?
44:33No, ain't nothing in here my size.
44:36I got to make it, you know?
44:38So, but you think that that's making...
44:41Because I keep hearing you saying
44:42you got to look like a boss.
44:43That's not going to make you look like a boss.
44:45What's going to make me look like a boss?
44:46Listen to me.
44:47Listen to me, OK?
44:49That jacket is fitting you all the way back here.
44:51But let me just tell you about here.
44:53He custom makes stuff for people.
44:55You never ask.
44:56Instead, you keep having these attitudes.
44:57You ask, do you have anything?
45:00Does this coat come bigger?
45:01That's the question you're supposed to ask.
45:03I just asked him, was this all they have for me?
45:05She said, yeah.
45:06Listen to me.
45:07Listen to me.
45:08That's all you have to pick out.
45:10I come in here at times
45:11and there's stuff that's not in my size.
45:13But I get it in my size
45:15because I ask those questions.
45:17I ask questions.
45:18There's things that I like
45:19that's just there for little people.
45:21It's there for the little ones.
45:22But I ask the question.
45:25That's all you have to do.
45:26Dank is not being receptive
45:28and she's not listening
45:29and she's making it a problem.
45:30She's being difficult.
45:32And I don't really know what happened,
45:34but Dank wasn't having it.
45:35She ended up crying.
45:37I don't have time, man.
45:39I don't want to sit here
45:40and make it seem like,
45:42no, no.
45:44This shit right here,
45:46this is my concern.
45:47This is yours.
45:50What are you yelling about?
45:51Huh?
45:52I'm frustrated.
45:53Okay, let me explain something to you.
45:54You in my friend's store
45:56and now you're embarrassing me.
45:58Do you understand?
46:00Now I'm embarrassed.
46:01So maybe this is just not for you.
46:06Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
46:07I don't know what the fuck is happening.
46:09I'm just like, whoa.
46:10Whoa, that's how you feel?
46:11Yeah.
46:12I know it's for me.
46:12No, it's not.
46:13Because one thing you're not going to do
46:15and I'm dead ass serious.
46:17You're not going to embarrass me.
46:19And that's just as simple as that.
46:31Action.
