 So my dad ended up taking me to the studio. I couldn't even reach the mic. We had phone books, I sat on top of the phone books. I couldn't get the notes right. So my daddy had to lay a dummy track, and I had to listen to it like four or five times. And then my dad was like, can you do it now? Yeah. Bar baby. Pay no attention to that. When you and Big Mo did that song, how did it happen for you? You were young, but how did it happen in your eyes? So I was six when we actually recorded the song. And D-Wreck and Note D actually called my dad. I was told that they were trying to use a sample. Couldn't find a sample. So my dad ended up taking me to the studio. I couldn't even reach the mic. We had phone books. I sat on top of the phone books. I couldn't get the notes right. So my daddy had to lay a dummy track, and I had to listen to it like four or five times. And then my dad was like, can you do it now? Yeah. Bar baby. And they was like, yeah, that's it, baby girl, that's it. I didn't really pay no attention. I got down, got my Barbies, went sat in the studio while they did whatever they did. When it hit was when I went home. And I don't know how they did this so fast compared to now how you got to get everything mixed in master before you even. I got home, getting ready to get in the bed, go to school, and my daddy put on the radio. And he said, listen, you got this brand new joint by your very own big mold bar baby. Future Ron, that expensive. It's the bar baby. That quick. You were so little. That's quick. And I'm just trying to figure out like, how did they get there? Now knowing what I know, like it's processing steps that just show you how much power they had back then and how the ties were. Put this on the bed. Put that on there and get it done. I got tired of listening to the song too. It got to a point where when we were getting the car to go to school and I'd hear that, I'm like, Ernie, what did you do? I went here. Did your friends know it was you? No, because I went to private school. So I went to a Christian private school. Them kids didn't know nothing. They didn't know. They don't listen to that type of music. They was trying to straight listen to whatever they were being told in that school. That's it. When I made the transition in third grade to go to public school, some of the kids knew. Yeah. But they didn't know it was me. And my daddy had instilled to me, don't tell nobody that you keep it quiet. Wow. This is a public school. Privacy. We don't know how these people are. Oh, you're talking private to the public. Yeah. And then I went to middle school. Beverly Hills Intermediate. And it's one guy named Ray Gonzalez. We want to play a game of Google. Is that all right? We're going to Google our names. I wasn't thinking. I was like, all right. We got free to do that. We got free period. You want to Google people's names? Google. You didn't even know what would pop up? We Googled everybody's name. Got some mom probably third to last. And it popped up. I know the Spencer bar babies. I was like, oh, I'm getting in trouble. I'm in trouble. What did they say when they seen it? What did your friend say? I didn't have a cell phone. I wasn't allowed to have a cell phone in school. My daddy said the only person you need to call was me. You need to call me and go to the principal's office. They got their razors, right? And they texting people. And I'm like, what are y'all doing? Ray was like, why you didn't tell us? My daddy told me not to tell y'all. I get called down to the office. Oh, you got called to the office for this? I got called down to the office. The word spread that quickly. It spread quick enough to get to my daddy's phone. I got called down to the office. I get down there. My dad and my grandmother and my daddy looking at me like. You was about, what, 10, 11, 12? I was about 11 and 12. He looking at me like, what did I tell you? It's not that hard to keep your mouth shut. And I'm trying to explain to him, it's not my fault it was Ray. And he like, who was Ray? He googled it. And then my grandmother was like, technology. You can't stop that. Right. Yeah. So he was like, what, we're going to have to have a talk with the teachers. They had to talk with the teachers. Kids treated me okay. I got a little special treatment, you know. But for the most part, kids, they treated me fine. And when I got to high school, it was a whole different ball game. When I got to high school. You were of this popularity? He was in high school with me. Oh, this is true. Dad, nigga, high school, sweetheart. This nigga, man, out of nowhere. Did he ignore you? Out of nowhere. No, he was my crush. She had a girlfriend, so he was my crush. Oh, that nigga Cheetah. Yeah. Okay. No, just kidding. I was nerdy. Like, I had the glasses. Man, I transitioned into contacts my junior year and all that stuff. So when I would see him, it was kind of like, you know, to my friends. He got a girlfriend. But what I would say with junior year, senior year, people really started finding out. You said that's that girl that was on the big mall. How did they react? What did they do? High school was a trip. Did you get any bullying? No. Somebody. It was cool with everybody. Okay. You had the people that didn't like me. I didn't really care. You had the ones that was the non-believers didn't really care either. Then you had the ones that were in the music industry that knew, that recorded at my daddy's studio and was like, nah, you good. We got you nowhere. Then you had just the ones that wanted to just say, hey, I sat with her. I took a picture with her. Yeah. But I was cool with everybody. I didn't have any problems. I wasn't a problem child because my daddy didn't have a problem coming up to the school. Yeah. He didn't either. But in high school, it was just kind of like, you seen bar baby. They treated me like a celebrity, but it was kind of like, oh, she cool. You Bernetta. Yeah. She cool. She seen too. I wanted talent shows. Wow. So I mean they would, they would show mad like North Shore show mad love on talent shows. I get up there and do my love. You know, I, I shouldn't shock a cunt. Hey. You know, they rock with me. The teachers rock with me. But high school was okay. Middle school just kind of scared me because I didn't know what was going to happen. I didn't know if I was going to get in trouble about running. Sorry, daddy. Call you by your first name. Let me ask you. So, so when, when, when Big Mo died, how was that? How was, and well, let's not talk about that. Let's talk about you getting older and him still, you know, you and him having that relationship. What was that like? Um, I would get calls. Um, they kept in touch with my grandmother a lot. So I would get calls, um, making sure that those grades never dropped. You know, if your grades drop, you're going to have a problem with all of us. Yeah. And that just wasn't from Mo. That was from all of them. Like all of them. Like who? Uncle Screw. Well, Uncle Screw used to pop up at my elementary sometimes. He was my cousin's godfather. Okay. So he was family too. He, he, he wants these money. You better keep them grades above, you know, above average. I'm letting you slide with the A minus, but baby girl education is key. Okay, Uncle Screw. And your grades drop. You can't come to the house with no more. You can't be doing none of that no more until you get your grades. And it was the same thing with all of them. Um, my Uncle Derek was the same way. Um, CEO of Rec Shop. Rec Shop. Them boys went home. Yeah. Progress reports and report cards was mandatory. Wow. I wanted to keep. I did. I was about to say, did you get paid for that report card? I'm still paying to this day. They let me slide with B minuses, but if it was a C on there, we had a CA talking. Like sometimes I couldn't go to the studio, but until I brought it up.
