I can have
give me loops
hello and welcome to letters from the pain I am your host R&B singer Nakia
and my co-host star Rowdy Johnson
I am your host star
YouTube guy from here hello I figured that
beautiful me I was in here jamming off of this song
happy to be back another another Monday night with another great artist on the show tonight so what are you been doing all weekend of course what else writing sleeping and eating
that's pretty much about it okay
I was dying making cocoa and laying in the bed like a lump and trying to figure out
what I want to eat
5 a.m. to 5 a.m. so and they're saying I think I was reading somewhere New Zealand is really really shutting down their whole area like everything covid-19 prayers go out to a mental health is really On The Rise right now and it's worse now with Cole Vehicles people can't get out to see their Healthcare Providers and you know like their counselors and therapists so you know hopefully they are getting something out of the Telehealth and you know and hopefully if they're struggling they reach out I know they're like domestic violence is on the rise right now because they kind of there's nowhere to go
cuz everything is shut down so the domestic violence line for anybody who kind of needs it or any kind of physical or sexual abuse please call 1 800 799 safe one 807-2799 I'm sorry 7333
God make sure
okay so I was having the same conversation with somebody and I'm sorry but I'm not a guinea pig and I'm not taking No vaccine okay yeah that's how I was feeling they're saying that they want to go to the elderly first I think we should give it to everybody in government first let's give it to the president vice-president the cabin the Supreme Court let's see it first and see if they don't drop the healthcare you know the doctor's White House officials were some of the first ones to get the vaccine but I want to wait and see let them go first or a tail or something
I want to encourage you by when you have ideas if you cannot execute your idea it's okay it's not that serious and I was thinking about somebody some people that I had you know we're going to do some things with and it never changed the past so I'm almost feeling a little shaky don't want to encourage the world when you have an idea and you execute your idea that is all for you that is what God had for you everything does not work out the way you wanted to but it always works out the way it's supposed to so keep that in mind
I'm done that's right okay okay she went a little little rants of advice that was some good advice good advice though because there's a lot of people who will not carry out or attempt they feel like someone at the wrong so I can't do this so you know I mean especially as women in the center for us so
listen if you're not laying on your back I mean I mean I always say if if someone doesn't open the door for you make your own door you said kick it in ticket in Kick It in the young lady I want you to keep in mind we have access to our writers so you send a response or any assistance to let us from the pain. Calm and we will make sure that the writer originally said hi I'm 17 years old and I have lived with my aunt since I was 8 when my parents died she has lots of parties and lots of guys around I usually stay in my room and it's okay but lately her new boyfriend has been watching me and sending my aunt to the store and as soon as she leaves he's trying to talk to me and be all nice he never touched me or anything out of pocket
Best Buy but I am a little scared is going to get worse I knew in my gut that he's a creep what should I do and I'm in the Houston area if anyone wants to hire me so I can move out that would be great I turned 18 in January sign I'm in a bind
17
yeah I would really really say
I think people fail to realize that when someone 17 or still a child even though it may seem like okay they're about to be 18 or I mean children are a lot more developed now then they were back like say when we were growing up
and I think that she should speak up even though she might be scared because guess what you don't know
what's and if this man has done something to anybody else ever so sometimes speaking up might not only save your life but they someone else's as well and she usually object is right and because she use that exact word in my gut I think I know he's a creep but she's already got some kind of preconceived notion that women we know that
do I think I'm for me baby girl is going to be speak up reach out to anybody who can understand that the parent your parents are gone there are resources there are people you can call just do not sit there and wait okay do not sit there and wait for something to happen if you already have that look in her conversation with your aunt or real-life conversation with her if you can talk to someone you trust school counselor even the police a nurse talk to someone a friend of a friend's parent someone that you trust that you know is going to help you out of that situation just that if you're listening and you need resources just go to our website ww.w.

after her daughter and get her some counseling because later on it's been a mentally affect your for that matter more than you should always with your children he just has to go he needs to get out the house and then let the mom needs to figure out what's going on
yeah I remember is the mom and dad are dead so is the aunt that she lives with us soon as she's like a younger or whatever so but yes I'm going to run away or something so they need to put their foot down on that right away cuz something's not right somewhere

I do not think rhyme schemes has arrived
in the building
we got it we're going to give Brian seems a few minutes to get up in the building so

I'll have to say my macaroni and cheese you want to cook something that's going to give you an extra but for the holidays and cheese has five different cheeses all kinds of butter like a whole stick of butter up in their heart attack waiting to happen yeah pretty much what's up what's up how you doing how are you
investigating to get into you can find you guys
go straight to myself you sent a link on social media this is anybody else listening take the link and put it into your browser and then click on it especially with an iPhone cuz it won't take you to do me to take you somewhere else with a whack iPhones
all the people in Black Lamb with the whack iPhones whatever I think I'm going to switch back to team Droid though I'm not impressed with the iPhone because I'm tired of talking to you on iPhone because you know you make me feel like you know I'm not your spy
my phone my phone doesn't crazy stuff what you got going on right now and I want you to tell me who you are really quick
yeah my rhyme schemes I'm a fusion artist you know I started off as a hip hop artist from Detroit Michigan currently living in Los Angeles and what am I to do with this music is feels good and regardless of genre like it makes every job we're together and just calling to make good music no worldwide you know from using spine answer your body to Swahili to English and Estrada is do my thing so that's kind of where I'm at when doing this music name about 10 years on a label DRS entertainment and just trying to take it to the next level
okay so who would you say right now is your musical influences
how do I take myself is 30 km
yeah that girl listen to that real music so he knows it's funny because of DJ Kay slay just recently did like a throwback song with all these hip hop artist it was like 50 of them and you did a video on it and I was like I watch the video for a 50 times already because like we talkin about life he's going all the way back like what was his name
it degree to get fresh crew or did you screw up whatever like he went all the way and so you know so when I do if one side went back to my roots I started making more Fusion music start mixing up Spanish and stuff like that with it and it kind of just the kind of guy I'm in a good mood right now. I guess I'm a good is a good space right now because I'm making a music. You know I grew up listening to you as well as a mixture where I caught you lying
how do you speak like a bunch of different languages how many languages you speak
how does pick him up if I could go but you know I speak Spanish and Portuguese
I love you
I think it's like I love you
okay what about okay so say I love you in Portuguese I know there's a different way to say that
don't speak Spanish Spanish the same thing
are y'all want me to stay
what in another language
languages so we're going to play your first song right now we're going play dead so or debt is a w or Jeb how do you say Debbie Debbie Debbie Debbie it's weird how she wrong with other artists out here in California and also jinako sometimes I feel so I spent half of the video over in Tanzania and the other have over and us here and check it out man rhyme scheme and a bright future would be wrong she nahko let's go
Menards, punch
la mujer cuando grabo Honda Rebel
don't know Luca.
that what is that mean what is that word
because is the word David and just like actual mean and don't mean what you think of me so it's like a voice like a metaphor so damn it's like asking me is like a track like almost like I can almost dropped a drum start was like tribal so they going to drum circle they like saying certain chance like sakusaku Kaboom like like you hitting the drum like to hear the song the drummer's like doom doom doom doom doom that's what they may actually means so it's kind of like a chat in Swahili so that's what it is but we flipped it and made it until like more of a party in literally means for like when people listen to the radio in time zone you're in other countries they know what day it is kind of like Boo Boo is like kind of like
how can I say you know if you don't like the hustle maybe like maybe like a line like a line pants or something like that you were saying like Cha-Cha like that
other people think it means trash cans so that they were listening to the song they would be a damn Ikea trash can
call you on the literal meaning for it but every time we like football like you tell if I can try to hit the boom boom every time like they say different chance like I guess region genre of music is that from a flavor so it's out of our hands in the air and Jhene Aiko Jackson East Africa soja nahko was like he's one of the bigger artist of an X out here so he and when I went over that we leave the up-and-up and wrote the song together and fill the video so I wanted to add a little more Latin flavor hear from us so what I did was I found a like a Chicano artists over there in Los Angeles and we kind of mixed astronomers a cartridge together will be
Spanish English and Swahili all I want all these different cultures you speak different languages and you're very well we're so cool like what do you eat what is your pout like what are you eating away so you probably eating tacos runs every single day is respectful okay at least get a regular wrap
how do you say we got to stay in shape while we are easy to get slipping we stuck in the house so you got to you got you something else aside some letters that's the key to it though the key is the food not eating letters Master 2's true to Xi'an
definitely anything by post
anything like that for you and so like that's kind of only want to really close to me I know other people that I know like that I work with and stuff like that who caught it and beat it I haven't heard it I haven't met anyone who may be die from it but yeah that's
no mas no nothing and no one had no one had covid-19 why was that all the food is natural light is crazy how high is no they don't have McDonald's in or where are the country I was at no McDonald's or none of that process food it was literally like everything I went I got locally life local farmers and stuff like that and it was like it was you can tell the difference of your diet the Way You Lie where I felt was all natural everything was natural so I had a baby
I mean you got steak and I mean it comes from a call like I don't know what kind of ram potatoes
it was funny don't like shitt the goats is W walking on the Sun
falling down
I'm doing music promotion
you do end up getting a good balls in the African region know from Uganda to Tanzania to Zambia and what I did was I just went over there and just it's just crazy how it works and how do you know if you don't understand marketing it'll take you right then and there it is crazy how I got over there and I'm way more popular than I ever been in my own Country Estates I just crazy just some opportunities able to get there a pole is where I'm able to get here grindin for like you do 8 + years here and I mean you've done something that I think a lot of artists have not done you know it had you view kind of bridge the gap between different cultures in your music so that helps
you guys but you guys being artist what's the what do you think that's about when you get more love and other countries than you do here
it's just about the market being saturated in in America I mean it I mean so that there are there's really I think the culture of things the way music is now and rhyme you can agree with me or disagree but now if you have money you can call and you can make a song to put it out whether it's good or not if you have money to put it on the market he doesn't matter if I guess what
that's true that's true it's like you know you got to get a reaction that's that's true but you know it's Marta ways to do that you know I was just like a hypothetical or like for instance like that guy Ice JJ Fish
I heard the name before but I can't remember. I can't even respect my vocals taking the way things but she was like so bad and keep it like it a whole album now that literally I mean the dogs on how for the whole hour okay that's about it but because it was so bad people thought it was funny so his like video got like over 2 million views and I'm just too and I'm thinking to myself like why are we listening to it but if you look at like in the comments section. People are just watching over and over because it's hilarious and it's like okay
yeah it's all good music like people forgot to tell me some of the people you work with in the past
so for the Hip Hop. I work with a Keith Murray I work with all the Terror Squad members being over in the Bronx and stuff like that I worked with spice one here on the West Coast to Looney's even in the Caribbean that work with artists from like moths blow my back on the whole Daddy Yankee crew back in the day with mr. Phillips at all of them and then when it comes to Africa work with you know a couple like artists sometimes I are like you got knocked who I mention I got to stop at work with a lot of lot of artists just kind of Bridging the Gap with far as my music this is this is my personality you know it's not even like I'm trying
travel to work travel the world who I am
and I don't even know right now I don't even know I'm trying to figure out where he's at in the music pedia executive executive production off but Alberta boy for sure
