 I have to put on my retro. Let me get up again for y'all. I have to put on my retro church first lady. Y'all, isn't this cute? This is a retro dress I got this years ago. I can't even remember where I got it from, but it's 60 style, late 60s, but this goes with the theme of what we're gonna be talking about today with the clock sisters. Yes, y'all. So let's jump right into it. Y'all know how we do. We talk about a little bit what's going on in these YouTube streets. We talk about what I'm watching on TV. And we talk about a little bit about home like nothing out because I've been gaining weight doing the quarantine. We're gonna go ahead and slip this belt off because I can't breathe. So I washed my hair a couple of days ago and this is what she's looking like. These twists are juicy. Look how dark my hair looks. I like that. So we're gonna be setting my hair in twists. Big surprise there. I don't do a lot with my hair. So we're gonna be using the as I am long and luxe, long and luxe pomegranate and passion fruit grow yogurt as the leaving conditioner. And then I'm gonna be using the mango, Jamaican mango and lime locking gel. I used to use this stuff, you guys, when I first went natural. And I don't know why I just stopped using it, but I liked it. It worked well with my hair. So this is a gel. Let me show you the consistency. I got it from my local grocery store, but you can find this stuff anywhere. This is the color. It's the color of mango. It smells really good. And this is the consistency. If you have locks, I think this would be great. If you primarily wear your hair in twists like me, even better. So let's go ahead and section off my hair. So you guys, I'm excited to talk about this Clark's sister's movie, but we're gonna calm down, okay? We're gonna bring it down. What I'm watching on YouTube, y'all who, you know who posted yesterday? Girl, a OG, a beauty OG, SP Nation. SP Nation is a queen and his previous videos were about skincare and beauty products. Cause when I tell you, I always, I always gotta be man with something that he has beautiful skin. So he uses a lot of luxe products. And at the time I couldn't afford most of that stuff. I still can't, to be honest. I could probably purchase, you know, one thing, but he has an entire collection, mostly luxurious products. And I like that. I know he was going through things in his personal life. And that's probably one of the reasons why he wanted to take a break. But I saw that he posted yesterday. I didn't get a chance to look at that video, but I will be watching it. Yes, ma'am. Going in with this spray. Thank you so much T for this. I still use this religiously. Working that water in, I do have some oil here. What else y'all? Ciao. Back to Joe Exotic. I didn't realize he has a active YouTube channel. And it's been active since like 2013. Joe Exotic from Tiger King has YouTube videos. Hold on, child. Girl, hold on, hold on. Why is he near my door? Anyway, are you talking to me? Yeah. Baby, we are in the middle of a pandemic. The library is closed down, sweetheart. Now he's crying because he wants to go to the library and it's hard for children y'all. Hold on y'all, let me console my baby. Hold on, just a second. C'mere, baby. C'mere. The library is the stuff that's closed down, okay? Everything's shut down, sweetheart. It's okay, but as mommy gets finished with this video, we'll try to search for you when I'm away, fair, okay? Okay. Oh, it breaks my heart, y'all. He wants to go to the library. He loves to go to the library or to Barnes and Noble and he just started crying when I told, when I reminded him that everything is shut down. They don't have any sense of time. To them it's like, why, you know, I understand, you know, but why are they open? So anyway, I told him I would buy him a train table. Which I will, I will buy him a train table. What were we talking about, girl? Yeah, so SP Nation is back. There was something I wanted to talk about. So you know who I've been watching? I've been watching Indigenous Trends. She has long. And what I mean long, I think that she has the longest four type hair on YouTube. Correct me if you know of someone else who has, I mean four, category four. She has five length long hair. Now, I don't think I would ever want my hair to be that long, but I think for her, she doesn't cut her hair for spiritual reasons, which I can understand that. So her hair has achieved that length over these years. And I'm gonna go in with the, I got this as a tutorial, but I'm just talking to y'all. I'm gonna go in with this gel. I haven't used this for so long. I wonder how my hair will. I got a hang nail y'all. I'm gonna split this up even more. Yeah, so she has five length long hair and I just feel like that would be a lot of work. And she has thick. Long, coarse hair. I'm trying to manage the length I have now. I couldn't imagine having that much hair. But nonetheless, I've been checking out a couple of her videos. I like her natural spiritual approach towards her hair because it works for her. It works for her hair and it works for her. And I, you know, I like that about her. Um, who was having, I wrote something down here, but I can't really read my writing. But yeah, not a lot besides, oh yeah, besides Joe Exotic. Yes, who I was talking about. Yo girl, Joe Exotic has a couple of y'all. When I tell you this man's mouth, he says all the stuff that you be thinking in your head, but you have a switch in your head that forces you not to say it. He doesn't, apparently. So I spent about an hour of time that I would never get back. I subscribe to his channel too. My sister and I spoke for a couple of minutes this morning about him. She's like, girl, where you been? My me and mama were watching him over the weekend. I'm like, oh my gosh. So yeah. Girl, your boy is right here. He's telling these kids again for y'all. You're the scammer, Benny. Benny the scammer. Ciao. I have seen the video of the young girl, chocolate beautiful young girl. And someone is putting a, almost shea butter paste into her hair and working into her hair. And basically elongating her hair. And the hair is ridiculously long, right? Girl, those hands belong to Benny. Benny Harlem, the ultimate scammer. Benny came out here a couple of years. It's been a couple of years now and he was trying to sell. I'm not kidding y'all. He was reusing old bottles. He got from Safeway and Kroger's taking the ranch and ketchup out of these bottles, putting on his own labels, putting his own oils and selling them for like $200, $300. And I actually know someone who responded to my post a couple of years back. And he was basically like, yeah, I purchased a kit and I haven't received shit. Oh, I'm safe the fire right now. He's like, I haven't received nothing. I'm like, ciao, first of all, why would you do that, baby? But I guess he wanted, you know, was looking for something for his hair. So now he's back and he's using his, that's not his daughter. That's his stepdaughter, right? Yeah, I'm sorry. I just get bad energy about him. I don't know if it's those fake ass cheekbones or what, but he just gives me bad energy. So he's selling this new pumpkin paste and that's what you see him applying to the young girl's hair. Poor thing ain't got no edges. The child in the video, her edges, yeah. And you know what, with some people, they just naturally have, you know, their hairline is a little bit bad, but yeah, I don't know what's going on with the baby's edges, but she has length, but the edges, yeah. So yeah, beware, he's out here. You don't see him, but he's using this young girl as a model for his new product. And kids, girl, please, not having it. So, enough about that. Let's just go ahead and get into it. The clock sisters, you know what? Kudos to Mary G. Blotch, Missy Elliott, and Queen Lativa. Y'all did the damn thing with this documentary. Sure, I feel like it should be a series. Don't y'all feel that way? Like, I feel like they gave us, they gave us what we wanted, but we could have had more. I mean, they gave us appetizers. We had two appetizers actually. We had salad, we had our main entree, but now we need a dessert, and we may want to go back to seconds. That's how I feel like. So, I feel like this could have been a five-part series. That's how I feel. So, the clock sisters came on. My girl Rhonda sent me a text message, girl, you had my blood pressure spiking because I thought I had missed it. I was like, what the hell did I miss? She said, no, you haven't missed it. She just got to see it sooner because she has the fire stick with Amazon, right? So, I was like, okay, good. So, I recorded it, I watched it twice already. So, y'all, a lot of the stuff I already knew about, some of the stuff I was like wild, especially when it comes to the abusive relationship that we saw between Dr. Maddie Clark, excuse me, and her husband, her second husband, by the way. So, Jackie came about from her first marriage. Now, one thing I want to point out is that she also had a son, meaning Dr. Clark had a son with her first husband. She had a son and she had Jackie. Then she remarried and had the other four girls, okay? The second husband, in a way, in my opinion, just from the show, from the movie, I mean, he treated Jackie a little bit differently because she wasn't his biological child, right? So, we know that Dr. Maddie Clark has been instrumental in traditional gospel music and contemporary to a certain degree because she produced The Clark Sisters, okay? And so, she would go on these workshops and correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought that she was responsible for the three-part harmony that we hear now in gospel music. I thought that was her thing, you know, her trademark. So, her and Twinkie would go on a road and they would host these workshops to help these church choirs get it together. Child, let me tell you something. That one scene, baby, she took off her good church shoe and I got a good church shoe, you know, it's closed-toed. It has a good size heel that's not too thottish. She took off that shoe and chunked it at that girl because she was chewing gum on it. Oh, she didn't play. She was old school, very traditional. It's almost reminiscent because I grew up in a very strict traditional church. Well, I think a lot of us did. It wasn't even just very strict. That's just how it was back then. I mean, this is just the 80s. They went back, you know, the 70s. So, I grew up in a costal slash bathess and you could not wear pants to church. You could not wear jeans. Not only that, but your dress has to be a certain length. I'm not saying it has to be to your ankles but it need to be past your knees. No bare legs unless it was really, really hot in the summertime. Y'all know we can get hot in Texas. But you could not show your legs and you better be having you one of those ivory lace slips up under your dress. Okay, yo, they will like this. So absolutely no chewing gum, no dangling, big earrings. None of that was permitted in my church. Are you serious? And definitely no secular music. I remember when, what's his name? When Kirk Franklin first came out and my daddy tried to go to my uncle. My uncle was the pastor of the church. My uncle was, he was not having that. He's like, no, I understand he's doing music for God but no, that's too worldly, worldly. I'm not having it. Yeah, that's how it was in our church. So, you know, one thing that I did notice and you may or may not agree with this and D, I'm gonna call you D. I did see your Facebook post and I agree with you. I feel like Dr. Maddie Clark placed her daughters over her role as a first wife and being a wife to her husband. There is an order to do things in my opinion, you guys. She could definitely, she could have supported her children and her husband simultaneously but the priorities were off. Also, I won't even say this. I think she, they didn't really touch on it a lot but I feel like she abused her children, not physically but she emotionally abused her children and manipulated them. Look at Twinkies for so many years and I remember, I remember even reading or hearing her in an interview state that she wanted to go off and get married and have kids but she was stuck in that role leading her sisters for so long that she couldn't do that or she felt like at the time she couldn't. So, you have these five girls, we're gonna get to Denise in a minute. You have these five girls, nine, four that felt obligated to stay there as a group to please their mom. Girl, Maddie Clark, AKA Joe Jackson, AKA Ike Turner and I could see that she was possibly feeling a void of whatever was going on in her marriage because they didn't really talk about the first marriage but the second marriage was physically abusive. I feel like a part of that abuse or whatever she was going through, she instead feel whatever she needed from her husband by putting so much into the group, her daughter's group and they weren't even really feeling it, you know? I'm pretty sure they are very grateful for their mother and for what she did for them. Again, they felt a need to please their mother instead of going on and doing what they wanted to do. Now, Jackie was, she is a nurse, she's a nurse. I'm laughing about that because I did listen to an interview months ago where Denise was like, Jackie ain't no real nurse. Ciao. So yes, girl, overall I absolutely love it. Now let's get into these fashions. I'ma need for somebody to come out with Clark's sister's retro dress line because I would purchase everything. But everything, I loved what everyone was wearing. Now, Dr. Clark, I mostly liked her hats, you know? I love girls' glasses, oh my God. But the hats, yes. And let's talk about the cast. We have the Maddie Carvin played by the lady that was, remember in the movie, The Help? And the lady that stole the ring, that was her. I didn't recognize it for her at first. And I can barely pronounce her name, so I do apologize. Her name is Anjanu, Anjanu, Anjanu Ellis. We have Raven Goodwin, who was from, she's from Being Mary Jane. I think it's so funny that she played Denise and her nickname was Nesey. And wasn't she Nesey on Being Mary Jane? Yes. We have Sheila, Christina Bell, Angela Burchett, Kiarra Sheard played her mama. Y'all, I know one thing. The one girl who played Darrenda can blow. Darrenda Clark has a very jazzy, a raspy voice. I like Darrenda. Of course, my favorite is Karen, truth be told. But I really do like, Darrenda is a close second up. So that one scene where they were getting ready to eat dinner and they were putting out the place and she was singing about that chicken. I said, what type of chicken is this to work? I need to, what was it, Henry? Henry's chicken? I'm like, I need to know about this chicken cause she's singing like that. I need to taste it. My fluffy ass talking about the dang on chicken. But y'all, yes, yes, yes. Love all the singing. They did a remarkable job. Very surprised to learn that Twinkie had sold her catalog for a dang on car. And I just, from what I understand, she got it back in the nineties. But, and you know, they got me thinking, there's probably people that had their music, I don't even wanna say taken away, but they sold their music for even less than that. And Twinkie is a musical genius. She is a composer. Do y'all realize how hard it is to compose music? I read sheet music growing up cause I was in the band cause I played the clarinet and the piano. But anyway, it's really hard to compose music. And she has composed over 200, if not 250 songs along. Along. And so I'm really am glad that they highlighted her musical genius. So Denise, child, the relationship, the family dynamics between Denise. So Denise was out being fast up in these streets going out and doing whatever. So it looked like she had a closer relationship with Twinkie. Cause at one point Denise came in late, like four o'clock in the morning. So then Twinkie was like, are you out here having sex, Denise? She's that girl. What do you think? I'm like, girl, I can smell it from here. You that with Denise being, you know, out in the, you know, doing whatever she wanted to do. She ended up having two children on a wedlock. And they were absolutely like, no, you can't do this. I was really shocked to see that scene too. When she showed, child, she went up to the funeral. Denise showed up to the funeral. Nesey showed up to the funeral. And they were like, did you know she was coming up? Like, hell no, we don't know what's coming up here. Child, she went up there. She's like, hey man, hey man. These are my seven boys over here. I'm like, oh, somebody should have snatched her but they were all wearing white. There's actually also video footage. I'm gonna see if I can link it. There's video footage of her funeral. Aretha Franklin sang at her funeral. Vanessa Bell, y'all, I could not watch all of it. This is a couple of years ago when I saw it. Cause it's been a while since Dr. Maddie Clark has passed away, of course. But Vanessa Bell Armstrong was bawling on at the funeral. She was all in her white too. So they did not show the family out of respect for them but there is footage of her funeral if you wanna see it. So anyway, they had to snatch Denise off the stage because she was really going in. They did talk about Karen and she's mentioned this several times that time when she got so sick, ended up in a coma and she had like a two to 3% chance of living. Thank the Lord, she got out of that. She pulled through and she started making her records. Can y'all see the influence that she's had on one of my other favorite singers is Faith Evans. They actually have a song together. Hold on, baby. Faith Evans and Karen Clark shared have a song together on Finally Karen. I told you, I'm a fan. Oh, I'm a fan. But both of them, and I really couldn't tell when one was ended and one was beginning because Faith Evans has so been influenced by Karen. A lot of artists have been brandy. What else, what else, what else? There's just so many things that really do wish I could break it down scene by scene but girl, we ain't got that type of time. We ain't got that type of time. But have y'all seen it? What do you think? Did you like it? Did you love it? Is there something about it that you wish they would have gone into a lot more? Like I said, I do wish it was a series instead of this one movie but who knows. Now, lifetime, y'all, y'all trying it, y'all, y'all stretching. I did see clips of the Salt and Pepper series. I'm okay with that. But this is Bobby Christina and Whitney. They're interviewing people almost kind of like the R. Kelly type of, it gave me that type of vibe. I don't know if it's gonna be as breaking and highlighting as that but I don't wanna hear anything else, honestly. Like what else? I just feel like at this time in point when it comes to Whitney Houston and her daughter, it was very tragic what happened to them, okay? But how long are we gonna drag this through? I don't like that. I don't like the feeling I got when I saw that. I don't wanna see that. I don't. I will watch the Salt and Pepper one but I don't wanna do anything else. So, okay you guys, okay. So what else am I watching? So Westworld, Dolores has lost her damn mind. She clunked herself. Spoiler alert, Dolores clunked herself. Child, when that was revealed, I was like, this heifer is crazy. Somebody needs to find the off button for her to shut her butt down. She is, can robots be psychopath? A psychopath, cause technically they don't have anything. She's a psychopath. She's a psychopath. She's absolutely crazy. I feel like a lot, there was a lot of different highlight. I feel like the last episode was predictable. I have started watching the act. Thank you, girl, for recommending that. I kinda knew what it was about because I watched an ID discovery on one of those shows. I saw, you wanna talk about that shit. That mama. So the act, you guys, let me summarize it. The act is about this woman, Dee Dee, from Louisiana who basically suffered from an extreme case of, what is it called? Munchausen by proxy. It's basically when parents hurt their children, fake illnesses for attention. Even to the point to where someone have even killed their children for attention. And so this woman was claiming that her daughter could not walk. She was anemic. She had with chemo therapy. She had like all of these type of, she was like, oh, the biggest one was she's allergic to sugar. The yo-yo ass is giving her pity or sure. She had a feeding tube. She had the mental capacity of like a nine-year-old when she was really 16. Absolutely crazy what this woman put her own daughter through. Shaved her head to look like she had lost all her hair. So I knew about the backstory before watching it, but the show is still good. It's called the act in its own Hulu. I'm gonna go ahead and give a spoiler just to let you know. Chow, what's the baby's name, y'all? What's her name? Gypsy, who the hell wouldn't even know y'all? So Gypsy walked her ass up, found her a husband, found her a boyfriend online, and the boyfriend killed the mom, Dee Dee. Now this is the stuff that's, I really do wish they would do a background on this. Apparently the family of Dee Dee kind of suspect that she killed her own mother, that she poisoned her. Now did she die? The fact of the matter is the family was like, and I did see, I remember seeing interview parts of this, that family was like, oh well, when they found out that she had been murdered. And I'm not talking about like a boom, boom type of murder, shot, shoot you. This woman was stabbed to death, which is a very painful and agonizing death, okay? The family did not care. They're like, well, she deserved it. I don't know if this part is true or not, but apparently no one would pick up her body. No one wanted to have a funeral. Again, they apparently flushed her ashes down the toilet, y'all. That is cold blooded. I don't know if that's true, but child, your own family. It's like whatever, she deserved it. Absolutely horrible. So yeah, I am watching that. I think I'm gonna get back to watching Altered Carbon. I'm also in the middle of watching Castle Rock. Yeah, so that is it, you guys. Those are the shows I'm watching. I can't wait for killing Eve to get popping off, so start talking about that. So I know I'm jumping around, you guys. My baby is knocking around. So that is it, you guys. I'm gonna continue to do my twiz. Now, one thing I will say about this product. I have this type of sticky residue feeling, but it's not bad. It's not bad. Let's pull down one of them so you can see. This is what my hair is looking like. Yeah, not bad, not bad. So I'm gonna continue to twist my hair. I'm gonna take off this dress because this is feeling a little tight. So that is it, you guys. Thank you so much for watching. Take care, bye.
