 What they gon' do with me now? I'm still a twerk of the town. Got me in the sisters, I'm hoakin' them down. Hi, everyone. I'm your host, Enrique, and thank you for tuning in to Talk of the Town. Today, we've got a very special guest on the show. It's ya girl, The Harlem Princess. I'm in love. All right, Vina, thank you so much for coming on. Of course, thank you for having me. Of course. So today, we are going to start off with rapid-fire questions. So I'm just going to ask you some questions, and then you'll give me a rapid-fire answer, OK? All right. All right, so what is your favorite color? Pink. Pink? Cool. What are three things you'll take with you on an island, a deserted island, a abandoned island? That's heavy. Water. OK, definitely. A map. OK. And a rag. OK, nice. Now, smart. Some people have just been like a studio, speakers. Somebody said they'd bring a bape hoodie. No. No, definitely focus on the necessities. I like that. I get it. What is your favorite food? Chicken. OK. Period. What is your favorite album? Jill Scott. OK. Yes. Her first album. Her first? Yes. Nice, good pick. What is your favorite song right now? And it can't be one of yours. Yeah, I had too many people pick their own, so. My favorite song right now, Am I Going Loud, is Justin Timberlake. Had a song. What's it cool? I never remember the name. That's Why I Love You? Yeah, Justin Timberlake, That's Why I Love You. OK. What is the last movie you saw? The last movie I saw was, damn, what was it called, y'all? We just watched a movie. What happened to that? Damn, I can't remember, but it was a 2B movie. Oh, OK. Yo, I love 2B. Me and my boyfriend love 2B. And we was watching this movie. It got two versions to it. And the girl looked like Blue Ivy and a Shanti together, like the same face I swear to God. And she bodied it. She became this drug girl and then her best friend and then this and then that. It was a lot. Yeah, I'm going to get the name of it. And I'm going to send it. They're going to put it right here on the bottom, y'all. So you have to watch it. It's a good movie. Shout out to 2B. Five, shout out to 2B. So what is one artist that you want to work with that you haven't yet? I wouldn't say necessarily do a song with, but I would love to write with Eric Abadou. I think that might be kind of crazy. Yeah, not definitely, especially on the R&B tip. Yeah. Yeah, that'd be a great song. What is one song of yours you wish got more love? Hennie V. OK, I was actually listening to that on the way here. Wow, really? Wow, nah, it's a good pick though. I'm surprised that more people aren't tapped in. Yeah. What is a, OK, so what show are you currently watching? I don't think I'm watching any shows right now. Yeah, I've watched so much stuff that I'm at a point where I don't know what's good or not, so I don't really. I think I've finished Survival of the Thickest recently on Netflix, which was really good. It was a really, really good show. And that was the last thing I watched. I was going to be like a month ago. OK, how did you like it? Is it good? Because I was trying to watch it. I loved it. I loved it. Because you know, a lot of shows is a show. So it was about the storyline that they put together. But I love when the storyline is so realistic to one woman, to a black woman, and then black woman in the industry, and then you're trying to be in love, and then you're trying to financially be OK, and then you're trying to have style, and then you're trying to maintain friendships. So the show really captured, answered all those questions. Like, how do I do this? How do I maneuver through all of these things? So it was a really good show. OK, so it kind of sounds like a Netflix version of Insecure, almost. Yeah, shorter, like more compact. Yeah, because Insecure is like what, six seasons, right? Yes, and I love Insecure. OK, yeah, I didn't get past the first season. But I definitely want to tie it back in. I was watching it with my girl. So you know how that is. Sometimes it's like, can I watch it without you? No, we'll watch it when I get home. Yeah, I get it, I get it. And then what is your favorite thing to do in Harlem? My favorite thing to do in Harlem, that's tough, because I feel like everything I do is in Harlem. I think my favorite thing to do in Harlem would be like those nights when nobody doing nothing and we just chillin' and we outside and we just everybody smoking, drinking, talking, laughing, talking about stuff from when we was kids. I think that's like my favorite thing to do because nobody really thinking too hard. Like you just chillin'. It's not about nobody trying to be seen. Nobody trying to fit in. Like you really just with your friends talking, laughing, everybody go home and then that's into the night. Nice, yeah, just another night in the neighborhood. Yeah. Nice. And last one is what is one lesson you've learned in the industry so far? Be yourself, because you're going to get criticized no matter who the hell you are. So you might as well just be you and let them criticize that. You don't want to be known for being somebody else and that's not even who you are. So now you're battling with 3,000 extra things because it's not even you. And you're just like, damn, I wish they knew who I was. But even if they didn't know who you was, they still going to criticize you anyway. So you could have did that from jump. So that's definitely my biggest, biggest lesson to be myself. OK, snaps, because like, no, that's so true. I feel like a lot of the times people get too caught up in maintaining this image of themselves that sometimes will cap a little bit. But if you cap too much, you kind of like don't remember what the truth is, you know? And nobody's saying like, because, all right, we're an industry, so we have to have an image, obviously. You have to have a persona. You have to have something that people like. Nobody's saying I don't find those things about you that are amazing and blow them up, but do that. Don't say, I don't really like that, but I'm going to do it anyway just because it's good for my career. Like that's like the worst thing you could do because the karma comes back from that. So you got to find those little fire things about yourself and explode them and make them big and make everybody else like them. All right, yeah, awesome. Thank you so much, Vina. Of course. All right, that concludes rapid fire questions. So let's get into it. So for those of you at home who don't know, your dad is a hip hop legend. Yes, sir. Kid Capri. Yes, sir. How did you decide that you wanted to pursue music? Well, I was a dancer first. I started dancing when I was two. Every form of dancer you could think of, I didn't did it. I didn't went to school for it, studied it, performed it, professionally, all of that. And I was always used to being on stage. I didn't know I could sing until I was like double digits. So when I realized I could sing and other people had like this stage fright thing, I didn't really have that. So I was like, I'm on stage, I'm bugging. And I would just start singing. I was like, oh, all right, like I can get into this. And then I went to high school, which was before my art school. So I started to act also. And I just straight up became my life, like singing, dancing, and acting. Oh, wow, a triple threat, OK. Yeah, it was just, that's just what it was. And I went to one of those schools that ended up being phased out if you don't know what that means. After the last class that just came in, there's no more classes. So the school goes away, officially. And a lot of my choreographers had left. So I was the last choreographer, so I was so heavy in dance. But I was just like, I want to sing, I want to sing. So I would create all these dancers and everybody performing. And then I'll come out and sing. And then I'll go back and do another dance. And it just became just first nature, really. And I just fell in love with performing altogether. Nice. So what was it like your first time in a studio recording your own music? Terrible. Yeah? I drove, me and my mom, we drove all the way to Delaware. I had to be probably like 12 or 13. We drove all the way to Delaware. And if you don't know, if you want to sing, if you don't know, it's completely different than singing like this and singing in a studio. Two different worlds, two different things to explore. I didn't know that. So when I started singing, I was just like, why do I sound like this? Like it drove. I went through this whole emotional episode because I could understand why I sounded like that. And it started to play with my like, making me insecure a little bit. Like, can I sing for real? Like, am I really good enough? Damn. But then, you know, you readjust, you learn some things. And I went back to the studio and I was like, OK, I know that this is what sounds good on my voice. This effect, not too much of this, not too much of that. Now in the studio, I'm a beast. Can't tell me nothing. Don't say nothing to me. Don't talk to me. Just let me do what I do. Because that fear that I had from my first session, I never wanted to feel that again. That fear and embarrassment of not knowing what I was doing, I could never go through that again. So now I'm just like too tough in the studio. Yeah, I could imagine. That'd be like, that's a really strong motivator. Yeah. Never wanting to feel a certain kind of way again. So what is your process like now in the studio since you're pretty much seasoned at this point? Well, I mean, it depends. Like, we either go through Vito. We make something from scratch. Or I already have some lyrics that I want to make something to. It really varies on what we're doing for real. But we go through the recording process. We listen, listen, probably mess with it on a mix and end. Might go back, record some things. I might record a song one year and go back to it two years later. And now it drops. So it really varies. Because you just never know what type of mood you in. OK. Do you usually, I know you mentioned it a little bit, but do you usually go in with lyrics prepared? Or is it all like a spur of the moment type thing? Spur of the moment. Sometime I'll have a song from like four years ago. And I'll be like, damn, I got to do this song over. And I'll be like, I'll hit Wells. Shout out to Wells now. Jason, my whole production team, shout out to y'all. I'll hit Wells. Like, yo, I'm essentially the original song I made four years ago. Make me something to it. And then we'll go in the studio and we'll just try to figure it out and do it like that. But yeah, it varies. It really does. Sometime I go in there with no lyrics and I don't know what I'm talking about. And I won't record nothing. We'll sit in the studio for five hours and I'll leave with absolutely nothing. And then I'll come in the next day and leave with four songs. So you just don't know. You really don't know. OK. So recently you dropped Around You, a single drop I think, what, two days ago as I was recording it? What was the process behind that? Because it's got this tropical R&B vibe to it. And I really like it. You know what's so crazy? Like songs like Hennie V and Air, those are the songs that were so easily made with no extra thought to it. It was just like, all right, this is what I want to sound like. This is what it is. Let's reconstruct it and then that's it. That was one of those songs. I was in the middle of trying to figure out with singles I was about to release for the rest of fourth quarter. And he played that beat and I just started singing to it. Like, I was like, all right, I like this. Cool. I didn't know what else to say. So I called my boy Tim, shout out to Tim Everett, songwriter, artist, dope, one of the bros. And he pulled up and just put some harmonies on. And I was like, all right, bet. And I wrote the words. I was like, front of the east side, I'll take you around the world. OK. Next verse. Throw it on. Like it was just so like just one, two, three. And then once it was done, we went to the mixing. The mixing was fine. And that was it. Like one, two, three. I have songs that I've went through so much with that aren't even out. And then the simple ones just take that. So what's the reception been like to the song? Great. A lot of people are just like, oh, I like the soft side of you. I didn't know you had this side. I didn't know you were this, you were that. And I think for me, that's the best compliment to hear because I never want to be one of those artists. People always ask me, what's your lane? And I can never answer the question because I'm like, I don't have one. So does that mean I'm not an artist? And it's like, nah, that's not what we're doing because Rihanna didn't have a lane. But she's an artist. She's Rihanna. So don't ask me that question no more. Just listen to what I'm dropping. If it sounds different this time, cool. If it sounds different next time, cool. You either like it or you don't. And I'm going to still keep making music. So it's just about staying versatile. And I love that that's the feedback that I'm getting. Yeah. Do you have any more songs that hit that tropical vibe like in the Tuck? Yeah, in the Tuck, but not that you're going to hit for the rest of the year. The rest of the year, every song you hear is going to be a completely different vibe than the one you heard before. Well, my next song, Catch a Vibe, is kind of, it's not tropical, but it's Jamaican. So it got that, you know, it got that little, but it's still a regular R&B song. OK. What are your, when you started writing and like really took like a really strong hand in making your own music, what were some musical influences of yours that you kind of took into that process? It's all crazy. I was into poetry a lot when I was younger. My grandmother was big on books and just poetry. So I was really big on like, I listened to things like, before I even understood what the song writing was, I understood what scatting was, like those kind of things, like, I listened to that's the kind of stuff my grandmother put in my head. So when it came to the writing part, I was doing poetry and I would have that in my head. So I'm rapping while I'm writing. And I'm like, wait, but I sing though. I'm not a rapper. So now I'm turning it into R&B songs from it be, like, you know, it was just a complete mix up. But when I got to really understand who was who, I would say people like Mary J. Blage, obviously, Joe Scott. My mom drilled Mary J. Blage into my head. And it's so many people, man. Like, it's hard to even go down that list because I'm gonna say like Delphonix and like Shalamor and like, you know, all those kind of people. So it was a lot of music stuck in my head and in my low body. So I can't really pinpoint it for you. OK, well, at least you didn't say Michael Jackson. Shout out to Michael, though. We love Michael. Absolutely. That's like everybody's answer, though. Like, even people you would never expect, like, well, how a drill rapper's up here? We'll be like, OK, who's like your musical influence? Michael Jackson. And you would never expect it just because of like the music they make. What's it called? So what about, have you, you were talking about like, you would, it would start off as rap in your head. Have you ever thought about like stepping into that lane or embracing it? Oh, yeah, for sure. You're gonna get a rap song this year, too. Oh, really? If you haven't heard me rap, it's a song on YouTube called VV22 that I released for my 22nd birthday, probably like four years ago, four, five years ago. And it went well when I did it. So I always knew like, all right, if I did step into this, I can probably make it do what it do. But I feel like what the rap game is right now is not something to play with. Like, if I was to really like tap in, I got to really, really tap it. So I'm really, really tapping in. And you're gonna hear it on the tape, too. So I'm excited. Okay, are there any like, who are you listening to now? Like any contemporaries, like be it R&B or rappers? Hmm, I've been listening to a lot of old stuff. That's really, I hear what's going on. Like I see what's going on. Like I know what's out there. I understand what's on the radio. Certain songs I like, but it's no artist that I'm like, yo, like I'm listening to their thing all day. Like nah, I'm really, I'm so tapped in with what I'm doing. I feel like I listen to myself more than anybody right now. So, but I love Beyonce. Shout out to my girl. Love Justin Timberlake, I love her. I love SZA, I love all the girls. I love all the girls. There's no girl out that I'm just like, ah, she sucks completely. I'm not feeling like that. So everybody doing what they gotta do for themselves. I like it. I think that's the part that I like. Even if I don't like the music, I love that everybody that's out, they doing what they want to do. They're not putting those stipulations on, like it's just like, this me, take it or leave it. Like sexy, right? Love it. Like I just love it. Girl, like dude, you gonna be that anyway. So at least if you're a celebrity, still be that. Like don't switch it up. So I just, I love that everybody doing them. Yeah, like right now, especially I feel like the ladies are killing it. Been on this like this really strong run for the past like two, three years. And honestly, outdoing a lot of the guys too. Yeah, for sure. It's been a man's world for a long time. Y'all can sit down. Sit down. So, right. So let's take it back a little bit. With your dad being a hip hop legend, what's it like trying to carve your own path while also like not relying on, you know, like that name, you know, not being like, oh, I'm Kid Capri's daughter. Not using that card and just like carving your own path through the industry. I mean, well, if you know me, I am my daddy's child. And I'm also my mama's child. And we don't take too kindly to other people's structure. So if there's something that I wanna do, I'm gonna do it. And if you in the way, I'm gonna just move on around and I'm gonna do what I wanna do. So when it came down to, I'm gonna listen, I'm gonna take heed. I'm gonna take that advice. I'm gonna do the research. I'm gonna gather all the info. However, if my heart is set on it and my mind is set on it, that's just what it is. So even though my dad was, my dad is Kid Capri, it was never like, damn, my dad's Kid Capri. Maybe I shouldn't go into the industry. It was never that. It was just like, daddy, you're supporting me or what? Because this is what it is. Like it was just always that kind of energy. And in the beginning, my dad was like, no, I don't even think you could sing. No. And I was just like, word? And it just turned into, now I'm being in love. And now it's like, you can't even deny it. Like you can't even be like, am I supporting what she's doing? Cause it's like, this is my daughter and she's me. She went around all the obstacles. Everything he went through, what he was doing wasn't even being done. So it's like, he had to get up and really make it what it is. He had to really become the greatest. He had to become the Kid Capri. And I feel like on my end, there's no Vena Love. And I have to be Vena Love, if not me then who? And it was just like, all right, that's how you feel? All right, Beth, you got my blessing. And that's just what it is. And my mom, she was just, my mom always been strong about my career. So I feel like even with that, he couldn't even really, he couldn't fight against that. Like then her mom would it. Like her mom really putting the money on it. She taking a rehearsal, they traveling, they doing this, they doing that. So I was like, I gotta support. And once he really tapped in and saw what I was really doing, it was like, I didn't have that feeling of like, damn. Like I just didn't have that pressure feeling. I was just doing me. And now we are. Yeah, no, that's great. Because I feel like sometimes it's kind of like people will, if they have a family member who's like pre-established in the industry and has been like that, they'll kind of just like, just use that as their way to get it, you know? But it's really interesting to hear that. He wasn't even like that supportive at first, because now we're who we are. Yeah. And you know, like, I feel like my first time ever on stage, like with my dad was radio music city hall, my seven birthday. I had on a zebra outfit with a red belt and red boots in my hair. I had the little twist with the curls. I'll never forget it. Sierra performed, LL Cool J performed, Busta Ron performed and my dad performed. And when he performed, I ran on stage and I started dancing. When the show was over, he put me on his shoulders and I was like touching hands, taking pictures. And I feel like that was the moment where I knew like, all right, I like this. No matter what I do, I can take this. Like I can take this part of it. Like it's fuel. It made me wanna dance more. It made me wanna go to rehearsal. So I always think back to that moment because it's like, when it comes to my dad, I feel like he thinks back on those moments. Like that's what keeps him steady pushing. And if I just let him be my dad and I could just be being in love, we could always share those moments. And in those moments are the lessons where I'll get everything I need to know rather than him just saying, don't be an industry. You get what I'm saying? Yeah. So it's a journey, but we shall get through it. That's, wow, that's such a core memory too. I could tell how much that impacted you because you were just like breaking it down to the detail. So you've known that you wanted to do something in like the performing arts land for quite a while. Yeah, then I also wanted to be a lawyer. So there's that. Were you, let me ask you something. Like as a kid, did you like to argue a lot? Yes. I grew up with 10 boys. And I'm the only girl. And I'm the baby. No, because you know, I'm one of those kids too who I used to like to talk a lot, argue a lot. And I would always hear from everybody, oh, you should be a lawyer. I'm like, I fake wanted to be a lawyer for Mad Long too. And then I realized everything that went into it. I was like, maybe I don't want to be a lawyer. Maybe it was just like everybody telling me I wanted to be a lawyer. I was with it. Like I was, I was with it, but the time when it was time for me to like really go hard with college, I was going to, I started my college now program with John Jay during my senior year high school. And then when high school was over, I was like, I'm taking a year off. Like I just need a minute to figure out what I really want to do. And then when I took a year off, I went back to school, but I went back to school for performing arts. And I kind of said to myself like, all right, when I have children and they grow up and they go to college and let's say I'm done with my career. I'm a legend now and I'm sitting down. Maybe I could go back to school because I'm not a person that want to do nothing. So maybe at some point I will go back to school for it because I really, I do have a love for it. Not so much the argument part, but more so of like, just justice period. Like I will eventually be a judge. Like it's just certain things that I will want to accomplish. So I would need a certain amount of time. And I don't think I would be able to do that while trying to be an artist at the same time. Yeah, no, that would be trying to do something in like the law field and all the work that goes into it. We're also trying to be an artist and like really paving both of those paths. Yeah, that'd be really time consuming. But that'd be pretty cool. Artists turn judge. And I've seen before, but come on now, judge love. That'd be pretty cool. It'll be like, and then like eventually you get to a point where it'd be like judge duty types. Yeah. That'd be pretty cool. My own judge reality show, that would be so funny. I don't think I'll ever do that, guys. But that would be mad funny. Not for real. So at the dean, you actually got a proclamation from the mayor, right? Tell me a little bit about that. How did that go? I don't have words. Let's just sit in silence for like 30 minutes. Nah, honestly, you really think people not watching you and they really do be watching and they really do be paying attention to everything you do. I feel like in that moment, the lesson I took from that was like, be careful what you're doing because everybody's watching everybody. Like the mayor like, come on now, bro. Like what? But it was, it's for philanthropy. Giving back to the community. I've done toy drives. I've done clothing drives. We've been in and out of schools and every borough talking to the kids, performing for the kids, just popping out when necessary for anybody in need. And these are things that I've just been raised to do from just my heart. That's just what it is. My grandma been like that. She's been adopting kids my whole life. So it's just always been about giving back and that's just how I move around in life. But it got noticed and it was a beautiful moment. Like I was around the people that I cared about. I released a song I cared about and to be recognized for something like that. And I called myself the Harlem Princess because I feel like I deserve that. I am a princess, but I am from Harlem and you're gonna get the gully gully, ah, ah. But we're gonna still love on each other. We're still a community. We're still a, so it is about Harlem, but it is about being classy and being able to do things for the people. So getting that was like, oh yeah, I'm officially Harlem Princess. Like it's stamped. Like don't quote yourselves that cause it's not giving that no more. I love the girls and I support y'all, y'all know that. But there's no other Harlem Princess. It's just me, cause Mayor Adams says so. So, and it's on the paper. So let's just leave it at that. But it was a big moment. Yeah, nah, I could imagine. How, what made you wanna get into the philanthropy? I know you said your grandmother was very giving and like you adopted quite a few kids. I didn't notice it. I don't think I noticed it. For one, I have a lot of clothes and I wear things once and I don't wear them again. So rather than just, we've given stuff back to Salvation Army my whole life, but I just felt like, why not make it something closer to home? Like I did my toy clothing drive in my hood, like on my block. Like, and I don't live on a block that's like, I live with the elderly. So you gotta walk down a block into the park and I did it right there because it's like, it's for us. Like, we don't need promotion. We don't need the camera. I didn't even have cameras there. I didn't even want people to, it's homeless people with their children. There's no need for the cameras to be in their face. There's no need. So it really wasn't about getting into philanthropy. It was just like, we doing stuff. We giving the clothes away. We doing X, Y, Z. It just happens to be an event and that's just what it is. And people took notice to it. So it became a thing, but it was never intended to be like this big, oh, she's a philanthropist, it was never that. So it's crazy to see what it's become. Because now I'm like, oh yeah, philanthropy, okay bet, let's really tap in now. So I'm glad that my grandmother and my mom really instilled that in me. And just like, yeah, when you done with it, pass it down to your cousin. Like, it's not over, I pay for that. I'd give it to the next person. And as a kid, you think like, damn, that's dirty. Like we sharing clothes. And it's like, nah, like that's what you do. That's what you do in your community. You gotta feed each other, clothe each other, take care of each other kids. It takes a village. So that's really where it came from. No, that's awesome. Because I feel like, it's great because it started off like in such a genuine way. And now it's sprawled into something that is like really, I mean, shit, you gotta proclamation from the mayor. So it definitely has taken its ways. What is, have you done, or rather, is there an event that you haven't done that you want to do in the future that's like community-focused and based? Honestly, I feel like the things I wanna do haven't been done yet. And I can't say them on camera because then you're gonna steal them. So yes, and I'm gonna bring it to the world. And it's gonna be big, man. It's gonna be big and it's gonna feel good. Like I want people to feel good. I don't want people to just go to an event and be like, yeah, it was cool. I want you to leave and you know something now. You feel something you never felt before. So that's the kind of events I wanna do. Yeah, no, that's awesome. That's great, really. I love the, just like, just a genuine giving nature and like the energy that it goes off to. So like, wow, thank you for giving back to your community. Of course, of course. So, hold on, I'm sorry. My iPad is trying to keep myself on track. Let's, how about we do another game? Let's do it. All right, so this one is gonna be Finish the Sentence. Okay. You're gonna finish the sentence. Okay. So the first one is, my friends would say that I am. Mad funny. This chapter of my life is called. The get back. Word, the get back, yes. The most underrated song on my playlist is. Like of my music? Yeah, well, yeah, you could do that or music you listen to, whichever you wanna do or one in one. The most underrated song on my playlist is Do You Like by Childish Gambino. Wow. You know that song? Absolutely, I'm a huge Childish Gambino fan. What's your favorite album? I don't know. Okay. I don't know. I can just tell you certain songs. But at high school, that was my song. I loved that song. When, when because the internet dropped, oh my God. See, you took me somewhere else. I don't know. Oh, okay. I don't know that song. I know that song. It's the same one that has a 3,005 on it. Still, oh, I remember that album. That was a moment. And I saw the Childish Gambino movie with Rihanna and I was like, this soundtrack to this movie is insane. So shout out to Childish Gambino. Most definitely. I did that one. Okay. If you want to impress me. Oh no, I'm sorry about that. If you want to impress me, you gotta just not do too much. That's impressive to me. Like just chilling and you're just in a space but you're there. Like people know you're there but you're not doing nothing. That's impressive. Okay, so it's like doing a little but it really means a lot. Gotcha, okay. And oh, what is a, oh my back. I was gonna ask it in the form of a question. My favorite song I wrote is. My favorite song I wrote is Air. I'm gonna say a song that everybody know. I would say Air. Okay. My biggest turnoff is. People that stink. That's crazy to me. Not for real. That is so crazy to me. We are too old for that. Yeah, I gotta use the deodorant with the aluminum in it. Something, I don't know because everybody got different bodies and you know certain things work for certain people. Certain things don't work for certain people. Some people don't smell good but pray for your more. Maybe you're just a deodorant kind of person. But whatever it is, figure it out what is with your body and do what you gotta do for that because you do not need to come outside smelling no type of way. You smell crazy. Nothing you're saying it matters. Nothing you're saying, nothing you're representing, none of it matters because you're, I'm solely focused on the smell. So yeah. Most definitely. It's kind of crazy how underrated I feel like. Hygiene is, good hygiene. Because especially in these spaces where somebody in media go to these events, sometimes they'll be in a green room with people to speak to an artist. I'll go into the green room and it's not the artist but there's people in there who just stink. It's not fair, y'all. It's really not fair. Like this is a heart to heart that we haven't ran. This is like my serious face. It's not fair. And I feel like y'all need to get it together. So the same way you look in the mirror and check your fit for you woke up the door. Hey, one of those. And then come outside. Yeah, check your fits and then your pits. Thank you, thank you. I just came up with that. Thank you so much. I don't want to talk too much. That needs to be on a t-shirt. Oh, shit. That's not funny. Get that right on the nail. Just give me that 5%. Yes. And then the last one is I can't do business with you if. I can't do business with you if you talk too much about everything that don't got nothing to do with the business we're talking about. If you want to tell me about all the business you do with everybody else, how can I do business with you? I only want to talk about what we're doing. I want to talk about our community of work that we got going on. Don't come to me and talk to me about your other business ventures. You're now no longer trustworthy. You now talk too much. And that's a problem. You're not a good business person. Tight lips. That's definitely. All right, well, Vina, thank you so much. Thank you. What, one last thing. With the year wrapping up, we're about to be, if we're not already in Q4, what can we expect in the rest of the year? I got singles on type of singles, on type of videos, on type of videos. So it's gonna be a lot. Let me not use the word a lot. It's gonna be fulfilling for the rest of fourth quarter. And I feel like I've spent so much time like dropping the song and taking so much time away. And then dropping the song and taking time away. The consistency is there. The music is there. I'm excited. And that's my favorite part about it. I'm excited. And then the tape is gonna drop. And then the album's gonna drop. So I've been holding back all these years and now it's finally coming out. Like it's, if you've been rocking with me all these times since 2015, Jesus Christ, it's finally here. And yeah, that's how the rest of this year gonna go. Okay. So the tape and the album are coming this year? Not this year. Okay. So it goes for the rest of this year. Preparing for the tape in the album for next year. So the Her Marilyn Monroe will be released in the beginning of 2024. Okay. And then Love Tour or Love Talk, I'm still back and forth in between the names. But the album, that'll be dropping later on in the year. All right. Nice. The rollout is underway. Yes. Nice. Awesome.
