Angie Martinez IRL - Tyrese On God's Vision For You, His Daughter Shayla & Playing Teddy Pendergrass

34:43I've always wanted to see that movie. The second that you started talking about that, you know certain things just, they fucking make sense and they're supposed to be in the universe. How about this? It's like Kelly Rowland playing Donna Summer. That's supposed to happen. I don't know if it's on Broadway. I don't know if it's a show. I don't know if it's a... That's supposed to happen. Yes. Or... Teresa's supposed to play Teddy Pendergrass. Or how about this? What? Me and Taraji doing our own version of Love Jones. Yes. The alpha male with a strong woman. funny, like a romantic comedy, but romance.

35:28And you can't get these things funded? No. But after this show, it's gonna happen. It's gonna happen. Mona Scott Young is her name. Mona Scott Young. Also, if you happen to be here, I also have a few ideas. Let's let it go! Since we're talking about we ain't got until next week to get to it. I have a few ideas. Fall in. Come and meet us at the yellow table.

36:00And you know what? You know what's so interesting about this theme? You know what's so interesting about this theme is I'm turning a corner in my kind of understanding about money. We just had Emma Greed on and she was giving me shit because I was saying for a long time in my career I didn't put money at the center because I was always taught, you know, not all money is good money or you do what you love and the money will come. You know, I just had a lot of false ideas about money and I didn't value it in a way that I should have because I'm not moved by it personally. Right. I don't need it.

36:30I don't need the bag. I don't need the shoes. I'm not even like a material girl. I like nice shit, but I'm not pressed about material things. But the power in it, the power to tell people's stories, the power of our gifts as creatives to be able to get them out into the world, that requires money. Yes, it does. And I now understand that. And I now understand the importance of those gifts that we have. And so, yeah, so I'm going to ask for more money for everything that I do now for those reasons. Well, here's my saying. But it's just so funny to hear you like, I don't know, you're just right in the - No, no, I'm right there.

37:07I'm right there with you. My saying, which sounds very similar to yours, maybe it's a Capricorn thing, but I don't respect money. Right? I don't respect money. I know that it takes a lot of time and energy and grind and hustle and work. I know that most of what we do every day, we can't get done without money. And I also understand the value in some of the most beautiful and precious moments in life that don't cost a thing, right? Sitting on a bench with a loaf of bread with your girlfriend, they're feeding swans or ducks or pigeons and smiling and laughing. sitting at the lake is the high of all highs and how much did that beautiful moment cost you?

37:57Not much. But when I said on respect money, it's from the capacity of these ideas. And I mean this literally, Angie, these ideas will stay in my brain if I don't have money that could help me to get them out. This would be a very different place if I was sitting on that type of capital. And I don't have no ill will and bad intentions with any of this that I'm doing. Yeah. And you're going to give it a thousand percent. I don't know. There is no other version of me that knows how to do it. This might be a selfish thing right now. Yeah. But take me through what you as Tenny Pendergrass sounds like, feels like, looks like.

38:48And I only say this because I am obsessed with Teddy Pendergrass.

39:18Let's take a sip of some cold, cold wine And dance to the music nice and slow And you won't feel any kind of pressure Cause we'll just let, we'll just let the evening flow Come on and go with me, yeah Would you like that, babe? Come on over to my place Tyrese.

39:55Lee Daniels has to direct. Oh my God. You know when I was saying there's certain things that are just supposed to be in the world. My God, Tyrese. I'm not gonna stop until it's done let's take it all the way though that's what it sounds like but what is this what is because I'm a fan of his and his story what is the spirit of it like what is he what is he telling the world in this project he gave me an assignment I was one of the pallbearers his funeral carrying his casket. I know and love his wife, Joan Pendergrass.

40:51We spent about at least seven years prior to him passing. And he said, you know, nobody is sitting in his chair. I'm not mimicking, but I just want to show y 'all this was the dynamic of our conversation. He's got a very raspy voice, kind of like Shine when he talks.

41:17You know, nobody can play me in this movie but you. You know why?

41:31Because everybody's running around here trying to sound like me. Sing like me. You're the only one who really can act, really could sing.

41:48And you haven't been trying to mimic me and my sound. That's why you're the one. You're my son. Although I have a son, I consider you a son. That's why you're going to play me in a movie. You hear that, Joan? To his wife. I hear you, honey.

42:14Can you give me some water?

42:20Are we all going to the movies? Yeah, but it was like, wow, just seeing his neck and just kind of how he could, it's only so much movement. And just everything that I was able to study. I can't wait. you know what else is too is interesting is that he had his own vices and demons and issues with women and how you were talking about the 16 year old version of yourself and Rev telling you how many how many more you know he lived his best life to the fuck but see that's what I'm saying it's that appetite I do not I can't speak for everybody but I don't believe most people body count would be what it is if they actually knew that the money or what makes them suddenly attractive or this and that, it ain't going nowhere.

43:18Like what excuse do I have now after 30 years? They still scream for me. I'm still selling out arenas. I'm still doing the biggest movies in the world. I still live in a 25 ,000 square foot mansion with Rolls Royces. My kids are still happy. It's still here. So functioning from a place that it's all going to go away soon had to get off of me. So now. OK, let me be more specific here, because I really want people to get this.

43:55Sometime when you unexpectedly get blessed, your life feels like a rental car. and if it's a rental car and you in the limo for the prom or you in a rental car and it's nice you're running that shit ragged you're treating it like shit because you know it's gonna go away or just in general this high that I'm feeling from this really nice car doesn't belong to me and at some point I gotta give it back so you're gonna go maximum extreme level of whatever it is you're doing in that moment because you know at some point you're going to give the Cinderella slipper back at some point you're going to be a frog again at some point the swan is going to become a pigeon again and just go back to being regular so while I have it I'm gonna go big but what excuse can you come up with now for still clubbing still partying still spending on the level that you're spending on still seeking validation like when is the last time you hold it's a big one here's a big one when is the last time you were alone

45:19and why did that make you so uncomfortable because you need people around you all day every day stroking your ego complimenting you validating you oh so it so so basically you got people around you to feel like if you don't give at least 10 compliments a day you might be out of a job amazon health ai presents Painful thoughts. I, um, I can't stop scratching my downtown. Yeah, but I'm not itching to go downtown and tell a receptionist I'm here to talk about my downtown. Some things you'd rather type than say out loud.

Because people are distractions. These thoughts are expensive and I want to reach them all. Which is why you should call me at 1-800.

48:50Teddy. Tyrese as Teddy. 1-800-TYRESE as Teddy. Romantic comedy, opening up my own movie studio, which is on the scale of a universal studios, hotels, restaurants, retail, tourism, developing whole islands in the Caribbean island. I love that. You know, like I'm going big. Like this ain't got nothing to do with me announcing that I'm releasing a hoodie. Who gives a fuck about a hoodie? We didn't seen too many of them. Okay. You have a hoodie on now, by the way. What happened? You have a hoodie on right now. I know, because it's just what I prefer to wear under this jacket. But it ain't my hoodie.

49:30Right, right, right. No, I get it. You try to do big things. I get it. It's super big. And I get frustrated with God sometimes because I'm like, God, why do you keep, because Angie, these ideas are so big and they're so detailed and they're so specific. and I'm like God since you're such a specific God when are you going to specifically let me do these things that are bouncing around in my head that you've fed me it's so clear you know why because it's God's timing it's not your time it is you just gotta it is keep submitting but you're doing the right thing I just think God has a way of I think God has a way and this is my experience I think God has a way of just wanting to make sure that you know that he did it because if it was about your handsome your talent your calls your hustle your follow-up lunches and dinners and courting and nurturing the relationships to make it you still like well damn when is something gonna happen it all feels right it all went right that stars align and everything feels good.

50:43I like all these people. The money is there. When, when's he?

50:51Faith in the unseen. Mm-hmm. I have to go back to something real quick. Okay. You're so good, Tyrese. We can have a four, this is gonna be a four-hour episode. Because something you said I thought was interesting and I thought you were going one way and you went somewhere else, but when you were talking about a rental car, because you had also talked about women and vices and all that stuff i think that translate beyond money beyond you like your situation and lifestyle when you think about men um who you you refer to like men being in different with different women trying to there's something that happens with men where if they're with a woman that they don't feel like they deserve she's gonna leave me at some point anyway i feel like they go out and almost ruin their home i've seen this with people that i know that are married and i think maybe women do it too it's almost like an imposter syndrome like how you were saying you feel like your life is rental is rented so you start ruining it self-sabotage it's self-sabotage i think when you don't value yourself in that way or you don't think you're worthy of whatever the blessing says whatever the gifts are that you just kind of fuck it up yeah and i don't even think people realize they're doing it yeah they don't but it's also a habit that they've learned they've seen their mom and dad fuck up everything yeah right so it's a go-to yeah for sure it's a pattern it's a habit it's a learned behavior um we all have baggage yeah but who's gonna love you enough to stand you to help you unpack it.

52:33If you pull it up with 10 bags, physical bags, and I pull it up with 10 bags, we both got bags. But when you start unzipping them and you show me what's in each bag, your story has nothing to do with mine. But who's going to love you enough to say, to go through those bags with you. Because you get over the external. You could have some of the best sexual chemistry ever and that'll be a reason to hold on for a little while uh you can love the the conversation you can get deep you know oh we can we can talk about deep stuff you know it could be a lot of different reasons that you think that this is the one but at the end of the day you still are in a relationship with somebody that have a lot of things that are attached to them so can we talk about it can we be transparent about it and for those things that i can help you through i'm gonna love you through it all and then there's some things that's way beyond my pay grade right in this case we'll be like babe i love you but i got alligator arms and i ain't gonna be able to reach into these topics and reach into these issues or reach into these areas of your life to help you to figure out what's going on there so now I got to put you in front of a therapist a real professional that could really unpack that because rather you're with me or not it's still there you can run from here to Australia you taking your problems with you you gotta unpack it yeah and so yeah it's it's some of us some of us could really function relationship-wise on the surface and do just fine.

54:21Really? I think eventually. No, some people can literally function on the surface. I don't feel like you can do anything on the surface. I feel like everything you do from relationships to your career to these big ideas, the frustration of not being able to bring them to fruition, you feel everything so intensely. It's so real. But how do you manage that? because that could also make you crazy well i am crazy you have to be crazy to even believe that it's going to happen right so so so imagine this we shouldn't say crazy i feel like no no no crazy is a good thing yeah right crazy is only bad in the wrong hands money is a good thing it's only bad when money ends up in the wrong hands um money is the root of all evil i disagree money ain't never been evil in my hands i've never used my money to harm or hurt anybody you put money in my hands everybody's life is better everything is better the experience is better i tell niggas all the time i love your yacht but your your yacht would be better if i was invited on it like this is this must be so fucking bored it y 'all must be so bored on this fucking yacht if you want to have fun on this big ass 180 million dollar whatever this is i'm your guy i'm your guy yeah that's it it's almost like how we feel about kenny burns or just people that just naturally got good energy you know i'm saying like it's it's it's like kenny burns yeah love kb right like it's like there's certain people that just got that energy about them that they make every room they walk into better so prior to kenny burns showing up to your boat y 'all was on this motherfucker just sweepies everybody sleep just like y 'all just y 'all minds just handing out tylenol pm this is the most boring and we already out here on the ocean and the ocean is supposed to put us to sleep but can we have some fun so yeah i just think you do you do value joy right i'm the life of the party we're gonna have fun but nobody gets hurt at the end of my parties you know it's no there's no ill will and no bad intentions you know so i just think who else but me to become the multi multi-billionaire that's going to get these developments and these projects and these things off the ground.

57:06I think you should go on a promo tour, like a fundraising promo tour. I like it. Do you see where I'm going with this? Yes. Because I think what you just, the gift that you just gave us of this little glimpse into Teddy's story, if you just keep lighting that spark, like wherever you go, how could anybody stop that? I'm not saying to give away everything for free. Maybe it's little pieces of things. Just keep sharing the gift that you keep referencing in whatever way it shows up for you on that day. But intentionally. It's bound to, you don't think? Yes. Yes. Yes. But being intentional about that.

57:52Yes. Very. And never letting up. Yeah. And never questioning God. Just getting mad. Get irritated. We're human. God. He doesn't like. God, what are we doing? What are we doing? what did Tiana say Tiana was on the show she's like sometimes I'd be like God for real I have to have a real one with God like why do you I mean she just had this glory moment this glory year but there was times where she's like you big creative ideas creative all the time she wants this she wants that and she's like why didn't any of these things work you know she record deals or whatever so she's had those she's like I have to have a real one with God and then I have to like pull myself down well you know what it comes down to for me and if Tiana sees this message that's my sister I love her I was just with her at the black women in Hollywood event in LA we had such a great beautiful exchange of conversation listen people that win Oscars it's like the kiss of death they disappear after they win When you're nominated, you book way more movies than you do when you win.

59:05Wow. I don't know what the fuck it is. It's YouTube videos all over the internet of what happens when you win an Oscar. Versus nominated. Versus nominated. And so if I could say to Tiana, the nomination, you're on fire. Something about what people start overthinking and overvaluing the talent when they win the Oscar. You know, there's not a project that's good enough for an Oscar award winner. It's just all this stuff that happens. Nominated is a different level. And what she was able to do was all about her. People have never heard of her. until they heard of her that's crazy by the way and all of 15 years old she's been at it but but here's the thing you gotta we gotta think right we all live in a in our own matrix who doesn't know tiana taylor everybody there's a whole lot of people never heard of her day in their life ever nothing about anything she's ever did said song she sung has ever fell on their radar until now.

1:00:21And when they met her, she's now a seasoned veteran, legend, beautiful, showing up with outfits, killing every red car. And so you're like, who the fuck? God, who the fuck is this? You know what I mean? And so now... Meanwhile, we've seen it, but not everybody has. All of it. They're showing up as a... She's showing up as a new person to them. Yeah. There's a wow factor that's attached to a brand new thing that we never seen or heard of ever until now. And that is the moment. That's the magic. That is the magic of what God is about to do. Everything else was what you were supposed to see, feel, experience, and go through prior to your moment.

1:01:08You thought those were moments. No, those were moments leading up to the moment. now if you you want to make god laugh tell him your plans oh yeah wait wait i cannot wait to see all that that this that tiana's about to do can't wait can't wait i'm sure you got a few projects you could probably attach her to i mean you know ready with the proper funding proper funding yeah um i want to also share uh so proudly that of all of the radio shows i've been approached about podcast reality tv shows because my life is interesting it's some funny shit it's a lot all cameras is rolling a lot going on so i came up with this random idea angie random I have Tyrese Patreon.com and instead of me doing a podcast or doing anything that you're supposed to do I guess because these are these usual things I decided I'm sitting on 30 years A lot of videos has been on my hard drives with projects, ideas that have never gotten off the ground, ran around pitching visions and ideas, fully shot.

1:02:34Music videos has never been released because the edit just didn't turn out right and we went to the window. behind the scenes of sweet lady lately my my song shame with jennifer hudson and denzel washington produced i got so much terabytes and terabytes full of things that nobody has ever seen and i've i think i think i'm uncomfortable because i've already uploaded too much shit and this is all gonna live on the patreon it's all on my patreon so what is it what is it gonna cost us give me the cost for you for free no no i want to give you a code i want to be a patron okay i want to be a fan what is what is the fee there's four different categories i'm gonna watch how this goes for you tyrese because i too have 30 years of i have 30 years of content some of that's never been heard of before.

1:03:32And I've often thought about this route that you're taking. So I'm going to watch how it plays out for you and maybe I'll follow your lead. You should. Okay. You should. Okay, good. And TyresePatreon.com. And what we just uploaded, what's about an hour and 20 minutes long, is all of the fuckery and all the craziness that went down for this versus thing, lead with me and Tank. And I had the cameras rolling. I was like, I was like, okay, I'm not the competitive dude. He is. We both Capricorn, but he's the other version of Capricorn. I'm like, bro, can we all just get along? Kumbaya, White Flags.

1:04:16Who you got coming out? Oh, yeah, this is who I got coming. Oh, he wanted to come out and kill me. He had 17 people come out on stage during the verses. I had one. He tried to steal my background singer. You know, he had the sound man to mess up my sound on purpose. It was shady. So on Saturday at the UBS Arena, and because of you, I might throw a Teddy Pendergrass song in on that stage. Ooh-wee! There's so many good ones. What's that? Which one's that? Come on, girl, me. Oh, yeah. Come on over to my place.

1:05:02I could listen to this all day. I would literally just pay to see you in concert performing Ted and Pendergrass songs. Wow. See? I would pay for that. The woman that's always bearing gifts. That's what she just did. Did y 'all hear that? I'm just saying. Did y 'all hear that? The Teddy Pendergrass residency? I'm just saying there's many ways to get to the goal, end goal. Yes. Keep planting seeds. Keep chipping away at it. And it's going to materialize. It's going to happen. I believe it. I believe it for you. TyresePatreon.com. Would love for y 'all to join us. And in success, then Angie's going to join us.

1:05:48And she's going to do a data dump on her hard drives. Yes. I'm going to wait, though. I'm going to watch all this plays out for you. This is either going to be the best shit ever or it's going to be a fucking like, oh, oh, this shit, that shit, that didn't land well. I love that we had this conversation today. I see your passion and your vision and I think I hope it inspires people. Not for their own lives. Because we all have. Same way you have all of that. We all have. I have stuff bottled up that, you know, all these things always stop us. But I always think if you really lock in, there's always a way.

1:06:23So I still hope people are inspired by that today and will support you on your journey. You got to be unapologetic about getting these visions and dreams out. Unapologetic. Loyalty has an expiration date when God gives you visions and ideas and you don't move on them in any capacity. He's going to give it to somebody else. How many more times you want to sit at the house and go, yo, I can't. You remember I was just telling you about this idea? Like, what was that, two years? Yeah, you ain't do nothing with it. Yeah. So God said this idea has to reach the world. You playing games, coming up with all of these reasons, you know, my brand and my image and the timing and all the goofy shit.

1:07:05OK, or self-doubt or self-doubt and security's fear of the unknown. I've never done it before. You know, but I said, man, here's the problem. Amazon Health AI presents Painful Thoughts.

The problem is if it ended tomorrow, since we're talking about death, if it ended tomorrow, what have we actually done to leave something for our children? What have we done? Will they will they be OK for six months? Will they be OK for a year? What have we done?

1:10:34And most of us selfishly are just thinking about what we're doing today. hey, all the kids is good, I'm good. But if anything were to happen, did you set the family up for success? Did you set them up for sustainability? Will they be able to stay afloat? And in most cases, no. So if people don't think, if you think I'm about to get on stage and just be on stage getting screamed for, and that's my high, no. No, it's not. Oh, oh, oh. Deadline, Hollywood Reporter, Tyrese just got casted in another movie. You mean movie number 40? That's a high for me. No, the new high is that I own the studio. and that we have a film slate and a budget and we have TV series and projects and movies, writers, directors, editors, cinematographers.

1:11:36We have created our own ism and what we have never existed before now. It's coming. Praise God. I have a couple of real quick speed round in real life questions. And then I have a voice note. Okay. In real life, what are you most proud of about yourself? I am proud that God has used me to represent what's possible. In real life, what are you no longer apologizing for? I'm not apologizing for being late.

1:12:21shit I'm tired it's traffic something calls a delay it wasn't me in real life I'm at my best when in real life I'm at my best when I'm alone really everything that I'm thinking of and creating in my mind when I'm alone. These thoughts are expensive and when I'm able to reach them all, everyone is going to be on the receiving end of this stuff that I was able to think about from spending time alone.

1:13:02What is something that you have forgiven yourself for? Have? Yeah. I have forgiven myself for the things that I didn't know or understand. I used to beat myself up when I would say things, do things, make a mistake, piss people off, drop the ball. And I've just learned to forgive myself, give myself grace. Because if I was raised by Gladys Knight, if Anita Baker was my mother, a whole lot of decisions about what I was doing in the business would have been different. If an NBA player raises a young NBA soon to be player, he's got the whole blueprint of what to do and what not to do because he was raised by a champion.

1:13:53You were figuring it out. I'm an alien. I'm one of one. I'm by myself. I've been winging it out here my whole life. And when I would make mistakes because the whole world is watching me grow up from the little kid right before their eyes, I would always beat myself up. Why did I say that? Why did I do that? I'll tell you why you said it and did it. Because your mama wasn't glad as night. You didn't have a Mona Scott Young in your life that can sit you down and say, this is what's around the corner before they get there. So I had to give myself grace and stop beating myself up. The things that I've said and done that was embarrassing or that went viral and this and that, that it's like, you're looking at a duck.

1:14:38I'm sorry, a swan. And all of the stuff that I've either said and done and mistakes that I've made and embarrassing myself is like water rolling off a duck back. It doesn't penetrate me no more. It just rolls off. And that's a place that you had to get to. Stop going to sleep with your mistakes.

And between you on the road and Shayla being a teenager, what are some ways that you really lock in with her and really take the time to really have that daddy-daughter time? Aw. That's a good question. I'm a part of the, you know what they say about girls with daughters, black fathers with long heads. I'm a part of the... Britney is the poster child for a spoiled kind of daddy's girl. She loved her dad down. Spoiled daddy's girl with a bald hair, your daddy's bald.

1:16:44Is that a real thing? I might as well answer my question with my hat off. Are you one of them? Are you one of those? Oh, yeah. Yeah. Let me answer this question with my hat off.

1:16:58um well at this point as a father i'm more concerned about what my daughter don't know

1:18:31such a dead answer that's my Shayla she went viral from that My Shayla She's got a clothing line coming out called My Shayla Does she really? She does That's sweet Yeah How is that I have that and then I have one loaded question and we're going to do a bowling rap How does that I don't know How do you manage that when something real is happening to you emotional heartbreaking or and you're in the most vulnerable state and it becomes something that people, it's a meme. Oh, it's the swan and the water rolling off the back thing. The swan that goes off, yeah. I was on Psych Meds when I uploaded that video.

1:19:23It was on the internet for six months before the Psych Meds were completely out of my system. So, yeah, people have fun. They've never seen me like that. I'd never seen me like that. When I finally got in my regular headspace, I looked at the video and I was like, oh, shit. Wow. And then fast forward, because God loves me. Why does God love me so much? He takes the most vulnerable moment of my life about my daughter. And he flips hashtag my Shayla into something endearing. So people don't say, what's good, my dad? They go, my Shayla. And it's the way girls are hugging each other. It's the way people are greeting each other.

1:20:12Nobody in the world could have told me that something that was so vulnerable, fast forward with flipping to something. So now, when my daughter goes places, and I be like, yeah, this is my daughter Shayla. Wait, wait. Are you the Shayla? My Shayla? Me and my friend do it. We like my shit. You're the real Shayla. It's the craziest thing ever. It is literally like God has a sense of humor. To flip that one. Has anybody ever sent you that meme? Oh, yeah. I see it all online. Yeah, all the time. I've been living with the what more do you want from me and my Shayla. I've been living with that now. That was what video?

Certified to operate by Shiv. Before you go, this is our Boost Mobile IRL Bowl. You pick a question and we'll leave on that note. Have this beautiful conversation. I'm really hoping you get the question I want you to because if you don't, I'm going to give you the question. We may edit it, but you see it. I think God may give it to you. I'm going to look for the one that I want to ask you for the close out of the interview.

1:23:00Unless that's it. What is it? When I walk in a room, I want people to feel

1:23:12they've met a really nice person.

1:23:17I want them to feel like I created who I thought he would be in my mind. And I'm just so shocked that he was kind of like nothing that I imagined that he would be. And then I want someone who did not plan on spending$10 billion that week to say Tyrese has got a lot of visions and ideas. I'm going to give him my money. I'm going to give him my money. because we was about to spend a lot of money on a whole lot of bullshit that didn't matter did not matter at all great answer i killed the ball there's one there's one there's one question out of the ball that you must have before you go i would love it okay this is my one for you Okay, here we go.

1:24:15If God were to text me right now, what would he say?

1:24:35I would hope that he would say thank you for reminding people about me everywhere you go every Bible verse that I post, when I say to people, don't ever give me credit for what I've survived and what I've been through. I give all the credit to the Lord Jesus Christ who loves me so much. Because when you can't explain it, when you tried everything to do it or get through it and pull through it, and you know that only God did that, he just don't ever want you to take credit for what he is there orchestrating the entire time. God is the alpha and the omega. He is the beginning, the middle, the end.

1:25:34He is all of it.

1:25:39And I've almost prided myself on making sure that I don't do anything without bringing Jesus into the conversation. and there are people that found themselves saying, I love Tyrese. I look up to him. I respect him so much. Man, I don't know if I would ever got through that. Well, I got through it and God is the reason that I got through it because while I was getting through it, I couldn't even believe I was getting through it myself. I thought it was over. I thought it was a wrap. I thought that was a career killer. I thought it was a good run. And God said, no, that was a setback for a setup.

1:26:26God is the slingshot.

1:26:33Stick in the hand, the rubber band at the top, and you're the pebble, Angie. And before, now, if he didn't love you, he would do this. Let the rubber band go and then you would fall right on the table. When God really loves you, he's going to deplete you, stretch you, create levels of discomfort. He's going to pull you all the way back and you're the rock. And then you like, oh, the rubber band is stretching all the way back. he's pulling you all the way back because the moment he let that rubber band go he's gonna thrust you into a whole nother level so far you're not even going people ain't gonna be able to see the rock where did it go that's the type of love you want so God whatever your process is whatever public shaming and bears whatever mistakes I've made first of all I didn't know I was going to make it this far in my life and my career.

1:27:41I had no idea I would still matter in any capacity after a 30-second commercial. Who do you think you are? You think you're sitting around with some type of crystal ball or something? Ain't enough handsome, ain't enough talent, ain't enough singing, ain't enough movie roles that can get you on and keep you on this long. God loves you and he has all of this in mind for you so just love yourself enough to show up every day and do the best you can with all of the things that God has in mind for you that's what my text would say that is a long text oh yeah my texts are normally pretty long so God knows me he's like you be sending them long I'm gonna send you one too oh my god really really yeah that's what's it that's that's it but the moral of his text is keep saying his name keep everywhere you go i need i need to listen if you ain't got god on you you should assume that when you walk in a room god wasn't there before you showed up speak on it talk about it sit there you know i went through something like that before talk about it, talk about it, transition into what God got you through.

1:29:01Talk about it. Because the word is not his opinion. It's the word of God. So if it's the word, it's not up for discussion. He got you. He got you. He loves you. He loves you. He loves us.
