Take it, refresh, rejuvenate, whatever you need to do, rebalance, whatever you need to do, do it. I'm telling you, your mental health is worth more than any fucking company in this world. Do you understand that? Absolutely. Because how you gonna make money if you're not here? How you gonna make money if you if you're sick? Exactly. And stress kills, by the way.

SPEAKER_01 4:08

Yes, and that is that's the stress is actually the starter for most of the diseases or ailments, especially within black people. Yes. That's how I have an autoimmune disease called morphia because of stress. It manifested in my body in that way.

SPEAKER_02 4:24

Um Ashley knows about it, so I'm excited. I'm excited. Um I prayed to the nigga upstairs about it, and uh yeah, yeah, we'll get into that later, too.

SPEAKER_01 4:50

Come on, big candles come through.

SPEAKER_02 4:54

But what about you, Boo?

SPEAKER_01 4:56

Oh, it's been a long week. I'm very, very tired. Um, you know, just pray for your girl. It's this job that I really want. It's a position in Memphis that I really want that I think I would be perfect for. And the money is moneying. It would be double.

SPEAKER_02 5:16

We talked about it. We talked about it. Yes.

SPEAKER_01 5:19

Yes, I did tell you about this. So I'm just waiting to hear from them, and I just pray to God. I've claimed that job, it's mine. They just need to come through with this phone call because I am sick of the YTs at my motherfucking job. YT.

SPEAKER_02 5:34

Now, you know what would be good if they called you and said, actually, it's a work from home position. Listen. I'm praying, listen, I'm talking to that nigga upstairs. I'm talking to that nigga upstairs and saying, hey, I want my friend to be in Nashville. I want my friend to be close. I mean, which Memphis ain't, you know, it's down the street. If we're not.

SPEAKER_01 5:57

If it was work from home and I can live anywhere I wanted, that would be the dream. Yes. Listen, how feral I am right now, outside of praying to God, which I do have my own relationship with him. I'm so feral and I'm so horny. I would probably put my hair in the potato ready to get on my knees if they call me for the motherfucking job and said it was work from home. Without even the shadow without head just moving. Okay. Thankful. All of it.

SPEAKER_02 6:22

Uh, it's gonna happen. I'm praying for I'm praying for that uh that call. Like, actually, it's a work from home. Oh, or it's a hybrid. You only got to be in the office one day a week. Listen, nigga.

SPEAKER_01 6:37

I'll make it work.

SPEAKER_02 6:38

You were listening traveling to Memphis every Friday. Listen, I'll be there, y'all.

SPEAKER_01 6:44

All you hear is I'm F E E Foot, nigga, free. What? Listen, man.

SPEAKER_02 6:52

Listen, listen.

SPEAKER_01 6:54

On Friday through Sunday, I'm from Memphis.

SPEAKER_02 6:57

Like K Michelle, you ding bad.

SPEAKER_01 7:01

Hey, man, what the fuck? Don't put it on the battery.

SPEAKER_02 7:06

Putting K Michelle on the real housewives of Atlanta was the best thing that Bravo could have done. Her and Pinky, because Pinky, I'll tell you this. Pinky is giving us realness. She is giving us like, this is what I'm going through. I did, I had to file for bankruptcy. It is what it is. She is showing us what a real housewife is doing. She's a business owner. There you go. A housewife and a business, a multi-million dollar business owner at that. Kay Michelle is showing us she still got the reality TV back. She still knows what to do, but she also has her own fucking career. And she's married. I mean, bravo. I I don't give y'all too many, too many high fives anymore, but that one, y'all did y'all big one on that one.

SPEAKER_01 7:55

Um then.

SPEAKER_02 7:57

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 7:57

But one thing on there versus married to medicine. She is very much a housewife.

SPEAKER_02 8:02

Yes, yes. Um, I'm so sorry. I interrupted your mental health, baby. Go ahead.

SPEAKER_01 8:10

Um, that's it. Just my job. Like I said, I'm sick of the YTs at my job. Um, I'm over it. I need I need something else. But again, it's almost one of the things where I know if I was to get something, I would be grateful, but I also would feel a sense of not necessarily shame, because everybody's struggling right now. It's not like it's just me. So it's I feel like I would deal with the imposter syndrome or feeling like I didn't deserve it, but I know I do and I do.

SPEAKER_02 8:41

You do, you deserve it. And I think that's I think looking on on what's going on in this world, right? And the in just in the USA. Um y'all people picked the wrong person. And now that everybody's coming out here, you got your Tucker Carlsons and all these white people talking about we fucked up. We don't want to hear that. We told As black people, we don't care. Y'all got what y'all wanted, and there it is. Stop talking to black people about what's going on, what what y'all feel. We don't give a fuck.

SPEAKER_01 9:20

We're not angry enough, no bitch. We were angry in November. Y'all were angry enough.

SPEAKER_02 9:25

No, we knew what was gonna happen. And y'all voted a pedophile in again. So at the end of the day, y'all can keep it, okay? Stop talking to black people. We're good. We know how to survive. We've always done that for generations.

SPEAKER_01 9:40

Always. Always.

SPEAKER_02 9:42

Um, but yeah, let's get into um Ashley's Corner, boo.

SPEAKER_01 9:47

Ashley's Corner. So this is gonna be way left field than anything I've ever talked about, but I have been thinking about it. I know ball. If I don't know nothing else, I'm not a musician, but I love music. Grew up with music. I'm black. I am music, okay?

SPEAKER_02 10:04

Correct.

SPEAKER_01 10:05

So it be some singers I'll listen to, and I'm just like, what the fuck happened? I want to talk about a singer that doesn't get enough justice or she doesn't get disgust. And she just had her Cadillac Chronicles maybe like a week ago. Her name is Miss Shahnice Wilson. I her biggest hit to date was I Love Your Smile, which came from her sophomore album. But my God, her, between her the her sophomore album, her third album, which was her coming of age, like getting sexy album, and her fourth album. I want to talk about when I closed my eyes and yesterday. First of all, I feel like when Shanice came on the scene, she looked like her and Janet Jane, her and Janet came out around the same time. And I don't think a lot of people know this. Because a lot of people, when you watch her video for I Love Your Smile, I was looking at the comments. Oh, because she has a big, beautiful smile like Janet. They kind of same stature, beautiful. You know, she sounds like Janet. Now, I don't hear the similarities. They're both their own artists. Shanice is a powerhouse singer. Shanice is in the conversation with the Shantae Moore, Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston. And fun fact, when she went on her hiatus, her first hiatus in the 90s, she was singing background for the Mariah Careys, the Tony Braxons, the Whitney Houstons. Shanice Wilson is a producer, and she was one of the first RB girlies too, outside of like the legends in the 70s and 80s, but the newer age girlies to be on Broadway. She was in Lauren uh Le Miserabla. So like we see Megan on Moulin Rouge, but you had Shanice Wilson on Le Miserabla, right? Even before we had Rogers Hammer teens Hammerstein's Cinderella, you had her. So I really want y'all to give her her just due. And a lot of people, oh, she's reheating Janet's status. She's reheating. When they first came on the scene in 1984, she won Star Search. She had an interview in 1984 with the legend Barry White on Soul Train. Her and Janet looked just the same. The short hair, the same stature, you know, but label changes. I think she got dropped from Motown and all the other foolishness. So she didn't really break through until her second album, which came out damn near six years later. But she was on the first season of Kids Incorporated, which was, I think it was um on Disney. Like first season, she did all of these things, but like I really want you to put some respect on this woman's name. And I always wonder, and we know obviously now, I think with the industry falling how it is, specifically the music industry. I would love to, and maybe I need to do some more research on this, but I just don't understand why her career didn't take off. And I want to share something with y'all. If you want to know history and power, Shahnice Wilson's video for When I Cl. That was another, that's like her second Abreak I song. It's like, when I close my eyes, I break down and cry. It's all about the way you love. Love that whole fucking album. She was one of the first singers that I remember when I watched that video. I was a little girl. She did sign language the entire song and choreography. And I thought it was just a cool dance until I watched the shit a few weeks ago. I was reminiscing and I was like, that's sign, that's ASL. Like beautiful, amazing, talented. And when I saw her on Cadillac Chronicles, I just went back and revisited mainly her third and fourth albums. She has released a fifth album, I think that came out 2022 on her independent label. But she's also, you know, sung the theme song for one-on-one. Everybody loves that theme song, you know, Married to Flex Alexander, but she is and was a star before him. So it's just like put some fucking respect. Like singers like her, she's one of my favorite female singers, but singers like her, singers like the Shantae Moores of the world, the Rochelle Pharrell's, you know, the I'm a huge Liz Fair fan. My dad loves Liz Fair. A lot of people don't know who Liz Fair is. The Dion, uh, the Dion Ferris's of the world, they say I'm hopeless. Like a penny with a hole in it. The Tracy Chapman's of the world.

SPEAKER_02 14:44

So, like Shout out to Tracy Chapman.

SPEAKER_01 14:47

Shout out to the legend Tracy Chapman. I just really want y'all to, I love music. I know. But do you? Like, I really, outside of like our big stars, which I celebrate them too, because anybody, TJ will tell you, I am the biggest Janet Jackson fan. I we had the Janet Jackson talk before this show. Um, but I just Shawnee Swilson is one of my favorite female singers, and I just, I really want to know what her career would have been like if she would have been given that break, or maybe if had she been, is she the original Normani? Because would Normani's trajectory turned out different if she signed with one label versus the other? Because RCA is known to hold the girls back. You know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_02 15:28

That point. That point right there.

SPEAKER_01 15:30

Yes. So just because somebody is not like a big star that crop, you don't know what they've suffered behind the scenes because they took them artists through, especially black artists back then. I mean, we've seen the stories and everybody was broke from the 90s, but I just Shahnice Wilson is a powerhouse, and I wish more people was more familiar with her game. But she is one of when it comes to female voices, very distinct, one of my favorite. I just want to shine a light on her. So my Ashley's Corner is dedicated to Shanice Wilson, and I hell I didn't know she's you know, cancer survivor, still still sanging, circles around the girls. Mike beyond. Shout out to her.

SPEAKER_02 16:15

Yeah, shout out to her. Um you know, it's kind of crazy that you brought this up, the music. Um, I had a dream that we was on the Joe Bun podcast. Um, I'm about to sign off.

SPEAKER_01 16:31

Good night. Oh, good for you, baby.

SPEAKER_02 16:47

We we was on the podcast, and Mona was on there. Don't call me white girl. I love her to death. That's the honestly, I'm gonna tell you right now, if she ever listened to this clip, you are the sole reason why I came back to listen to the Joe Budden podcast.

SPEAKER_01 17:03

And Mark Lamont Hill, they're gonna be. Yes, I'm sorry.

SPEAKER_02 17:06

I can't forget that nigga. Yes, yes, but yes, Mark Lamont Hill and Mona, but Mona.

SPEAKER_01 17:11

Mona, especially, yes.

SPEAKER_02 17:12

Yes. When I tell you we were on the couch, before we get into the topic, y'all. We was on the couch, and Mona and Mark were there. They were Mark was sitting on the stool, you know, that that one stool in that middle right there. Mona was sitting in her seat, and we was on the other couch. And then I guess Ish, Ish and the other dude, the other dude was sitting on the side. These niggas started to argue, and me and you, me and you looked at each other, and we was like, okay.

SPEAKER_01 17:47

I I went instantly, my knee was, ooh, forget, get out.

SPEAKER_02 17:52

And then Mona said, Mona said, niggas, and I said, I and I told, I looked at Mark, I said, are you not gonna step in? Like, what are we doing? They need an intellectual. And Joe was like, I am a little intellectual, nigga, I am. I was like, all right. And then it became, it became a whole thing. And after we went off, it was so weird. I don't know. I ain't never had no dream about being on no motherfucking like podcast with no other people. Listen, that's I don't know. The nigga upstairs is working. I'm telling you. The nigga upstairs is I don't know. I don't know. But this will probably be the episode we'll go back to and be like, nigga, remember we was just talking about this shit?

SPEAKER_01 18:38

Listen.

SPEAKER_02 18:40

Moving on.

SPEAKER_01 18:43

Moving on.

SPEAKER_02 18:44

Two niggas, um, especially this nigga. Um, Ray Jon Cam Newton's podcast, and he, I'm just going to give you a.

SPEAKER_01 18:58

The battle of eclectic niggas. Ray J, I told TJ earlier, I said Ray J needs a damn liability waiver every time he opens his mouth. Like, that nigga would just be all my.

SPEAKER_02 19:12

So I'm gonna play y'all a couple of seconds of the interview. I don't know what part this is. I don't give a damn. I just want y'all to hear. We gotta, if we gotta see the damn clips, y'all gotta listen to some of the shit.

SPEAKER_00 19:25

Before this new shit that's happening. Bottom line is like, it's so confusing to the listener. It's so confusing to the person seeing it. And what I want to say is that I don't want to be the person looked at like I'm trying to keep this shit alive. I'm tired of this shit. I want to move on with my life. They're the ones who keep this shit open and keep poking the bear and keep trying to take everything from me and keep trying to make me into this bad person and then try to drain all my money out of my account because they got five or six lawyers on all of these cases right now, and trying to end me and think that we can't survive. So I spent all my money on the best lawyers too. I got the best lawyers just like them. Howard King is better than Alex Spiro, Spiro, whatever the fuck his name is. But I call.

SPEAKER_02 20:05

So I stopped it there because shit, we ain't trying to get no cease and desist. This nigga name and name. Hello and copyright. Mm-mm-mm-mm. Um so basically, Ray J was talking about um the Kardashian clan, and uh he basically was saying that these niggas, you know, not these niggas, but these the the clan was trying to sue him for just trying to end him. Like they try to end all black men. But anywho, we keep on telling y'all niggas uh what time it is with them, and y'all just keep anywho. Let's move on. I just I can't. I can't. Um, Roland Martin.

SPEAKER_01 20:50

He pissed me off so he is the epitome and the poster boy for when women say men only listen to other men. What do I look like? Let's just let's flip, let's flip the scenario. I murdered my baby daddy. I murdered my husband, who's been trying to get divorced from me for two years, in the house in front of my kids. And you, Roland Martin, wrote me a tribute about how good of a man I was and how mental health is real. And they tell you it's tone deaf. And you double down. Kept shit on there. It took for your the brothers of Alpha Phi Alpha, your fraternity brothers, to tell you to take that shit down. You didn't regard a black woman's feelings at all. So fuck you for that.

SPEAKER_02 21:41

And it's crazy because you married to a black woman. And the thing about it it's like it'd be and yeah, I know. Now now that makes me kind it makes me side eye your ass. I'm like, nigga, what the fuck is you doing to your wife? You see what I'm saying? So, um, yeah. Uh, you know, I I think you should just keep talking about politics and that's it. When it comes to black women and mental health and everything, you are not that person. Wrong messenger.

SPEAKER_01 22:13

And wrong fucking message.

SPEAKER_02 22:15

Yes, wrong messenger, wrong messengers, wrong message, all just wrong. Stick to what you know. Big fat red F speaking of black women, positivity, Angel Reese went on Michelle Obama's podcast.

SPEAKER_01 22:35

So beautiful.

SPEAKER_02 22:36

And had a beautiful, beautiful moment with Michelle Obama. And Michelle Obama basically told her to keep up, keep it up, keep what she's doing, the brand deals, everything like that. Don't let them steal your light. And I I'll tell you this. Angel Reese, you are amazing. The reason why I love Angel Reese so much is because the way the fuck the way that she checked, the way that she sti uh she checked that that boy. What's that boy's name? Um Speedy. The way she checked. And it was so it was so eloquently. Like she just basically said, Yeah, I just think he's like, you don't think I'm a good person? Shout out to Angel Reese. Um amazing. Just amazing. Continue your work with your podcast and all the brand deals. She's just on uh on Victoria's Secrets. She's literally just did a uh brand deal with Victoria Secrets for their new perfume. So I see you, girl. I see you working. All right. Um next up. Let's see. Fish University. Listen, I'm a nigga from Nashville. Born in Nashville, Baptist Hospital. You better ask somebody, nigga. Great grandparents, great grandparents stayed in North Nashville and Out East. We don't say East Nashville around here, this motherfucker. We say out east, okay? Um, Fish University in North Nashville, um, their radio station, historic recordings from Fish University's campus radio station will be digitized. So what that means is it's going to preserve all of the black history that was basically spoken on Fish University's campus. Uh shout out to Fish University, man. Like an HBCO radio preservation project selected WFSK88.1.1, sorry, dot dot point one to digitize nearly 400 hours of historic audio. Yes, 400 hours of historic radio, uh, radio audio. These recordings will be available to researchers, students, and creators to ensure the voices continue to be heard. Now that's how you preserve history. Because once you lose history, guess what? The shit can happen again. Shout out to Fish University, shout out to the TSU. I got a whole bunch of cousins and Lil Bros graduating this year from TSU and a couple of high schools around the area. So shout out to all the black institutions in Nashville with our four HBCUs in this motherfucker. Um moving on, same area, Hadley Park. Listen, let me tell you something about Hadley Park, okay?

SPEAKER_01 25:50

Legendary.

SPEAKER_02 25:51

Legendary.

SPEAKER_01 25:52

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_02 25:53

Dedicated on July 4th, 1912. Hadley Park in North Nashville is a recognized, is recognized as the first public park in the United States, specifically designated for African Americans, located near Tennessee State University and Fish University. It was built on a former plantation land serving as a historic recreational hub for the black community. When I tell you, I wanted to bring attention to this because people always say, oh, Nashville ain't a bunch of white people. Nigga, why do you think we have four HBCUs here in Nashville? Nashville is black. Whether y'all like to call it, it's not the it's not the fucking white Atlanta. Stop saying that shit. Nashville is black and it has history. Deep-rooted history here in Nashville. And for you niggas that don't know, you know now. So when you come to Nashville, come to Hadley Park, go to Fish University, go to the Tennessee State University, go to Maharry, and go to uh American Baptist. Okay?

SPEAKER_01 27:05

Absolutely.

SPEAKER_02 27:06

SPEAKER_01 27:46

Um I know it's April 27th, so it has passed. And I know it's Earth Gang. I really don't know too much about Earth Day. Okay.

SPEAKER_02 27:55

Did you know the first Earth Day on April 22nd, 1970, saw 20 million Americans protest environmental detigration occurring amidst the civil rights movement. While early mainstream environmentalism often overlooked black perspectives, black leaders and communities bridged the gap, connecting environmental health to racial justice and urban issues.

SPEAKER_01 28:23

I love that.

SPEAKER_02 28:24

When I tell you black people have started, created, or been a part of every significant thing that has happened in this country. We are not lying. When people say, Oh, the environment, no, environment, environmental health has everything to do with black people because guess where they used to put the fucking factories right beside black neighborhoods. It has a lot. The history of having factories, chemical reservoirs near black neighborhoods is nothing new. Look at the factory, the AI chemical. I'm gonna call it a chemical because it does have shoots out chemicals in the fucking air. The AI chemical manufacturing center uh center outside of Memphis. It's not over. They have always done this to the black neighborhoods and black people. And we have got to continue to fight. All right, niggas be aware of your surroundings and be aware of what the fuck they're doing in your town or in your city. All right, well, babe.

I'm a Kaylani stan, I'm a scissors stand, but Kaylana, uh Kaylani, sorry. Oof, Kaylani does something to me. Her voice, her range, her vocals, it, they, it, they just a beautiful, beautiful person. Um, but yes, her new album is out. Uh, it came out um today. Uh, she has a beautiful, beautiful fucking song, I need you, featuring Brandy. And when I tell you, I have been listening to this song non-stop. Um, and it's crazy because Kaylani always talks about how Brandy really um influenced her to sing, and that's her idol, that's a legend, and everything like that. And to have your legend, your icon on a song with you is I mean, this is not the first time they've been on a song together, but to have her on your full-length album, that is crazy work. So, Kaylani, congratulations. I'm hearing so many rave reviews about your album. And um, I can't wait to interview you. So whether next year, year, uh after next, I don't know. I'm gonna interview you. So uh shout out to you, um, my angel. And uh yeah, you always, your flowers are over here at the Black Paradigm waiting. Yours too, Brandy, but I got I got a couple of bouquets for you. So, yeah. All right. Um, and I think honestly, um, with that being said, I think that's it. I think the name of this episode is going to be the short one. Back it up, back it up. All right, y'all. Um, don't forget to email us at the black paradigm seventy seven at gmail dot com. Uh, that is once again the black paradigm seventy seven at gmail.com. We will see you niggas next week. Love you guys.
