 I mean, that's a hell of a way to market yourself. Mm-hmm. Speaking of marketing yourself, welcome back to the 85th episode of Real Treat, today. We got some ladies in here with us today. Yeah, boy. Dr. Boyle. What's up, baby? How you doing? Big Melly. Big Melly. Who you bringing with you today? I brought my best friend, my VP, my daughter, Diva, light of my life, the creative genius behind Mel's Grills. I mean, this, she, share off the chain. That's the brains behind Mel's Grills. Tell me a little bit about Mel's Grills. I'm gonna let you take this, babe. You start it off and I'll finish it up. Mel's Grills. Hold up before you do it. Give yourself a dope-ass intro and let them know. She just told all they... Which camera do I need to look into? All of them. This one. Pick your favorite one. Okay. Good evening. My name is Miss Ari. I am the Vice President of Mel's Grills. I'm the Director of Concrete and Bloom Entertainment. See? Home of all things fabulous and is on for princess. You don't know? Yeah. That was an intro. So you started... Go ahead. Oh, Mel's Grills found in high school. Not found it, but... Started. Started high school. That's what I was... That's when I was asked. Eighth grade. Eighth grade. Eighth grade. She was at a private school in... I went to Woodward. She went to Woodward. I was gonna drop no names. And I was paying all these bands for her to go up in this... This private school. And, you know, she was like, well, ma, you know, you were Dennis, come on and do these grills. And I'm like, fuck no, you ain't going on there looking crazy. No, no, no, no. So she kind of pestered me for a little bit. And then it wore off. But it wasn't until like last year, because Mel's Grills will be a year this month. But it wasn't until like last year, it really took root with it. Yeah. How do we get... Well, we started off with a jeweler here, and then they cut us off. And then we got with Johnny Dang, partnered with him. We flew out there. We literally called him on a Monday, and flew out there on a Friday, and had a meeting, sat in the office, did the whole thing, and connected like that, we've been doing grills with him since. So... So when I tell you that Mel's Grills' difference from any other venture that's happening, we are the first time people doing this. Mother-daughter team. I'm a graduate of Howard University College of Dentistry in 1996. Okay. Yeah. I earned my damn degree. HBCU. HBCU. HBCU. We make sure that the grills that we do, because we come across a lot of grills, and you can spend like all these bands, but the back of your teeth be blown out. Right. And you be having abscesses and having all this cheese on your teeth, but your grill is in place. And we're like, what the fuck is going on? So that's... No, it's a bad situation. It's true. We've seen it. What if you went to the dentist and she was like, what the fuck? That's the dentist. We've seen it. We've seen that one. We don't let you near it, because if you look at our Google reviews, we're five-star reviews. Because we're five-star, because we love our patients, and I got my hygienist over there. She's my sister, and hopefully she'll be able to come up in here and show her grill. She can. Come on over here. Come on, Miss Nene. Yes, Nene. She's been with us from the beginning, so I did not expect her to sound like that. But our grills, we make sure your teeth are clean. You don't have any cavities, and we got the same full-ice trays as the baby, little baby. Same jewelry, same quality, same thing, just you get a dentist to check your teeth, which is so important. Everything starts in the mouth. But I got a question. I got something to say. It took IG people a year to realize I was a real doctor. I mean, they had me on IG pulling teeth. They had people damning us. Oh, she does. She does. She clean teeth? Yeah. She do a coconut. She do a vanilla. She's doing a fucking tooth. But that's what I did. Y'all be going to... Well, you do know that a young boy didn't open up two medical clinics with no medical paperwork or anything. What was this? Some young boy. Dr. Lord. Yeah, Dr. Lord. Dr. Lord. You in Atlanta? No, Florida. It was in Florida, and he didn't open up a bunch of shit and told the world he was a doctor. Really? Yeah. He ain't been in nobody's school. Really? Well, I got my shit on the wall. Nobody else? Yeah. You know, it's on the wall. Well, that's dope, man. You know, it's a lot of scams out here. Yeah, but all my shit is on the wall. You know, people be getting braces done in garages now. Yeah. I didn't want to come to a show. Show a grill. Oh. You're stunning. And can we show yours? I ain't got one. I mean, you finna get... I brought my impression material. I don't know you. I don't know what size he's got. I don't know what size he's got. I'm finna get it, but we... This is Arielle's design. She does all the designs for Mel's grills. We have a graphic designer who, you know, draws up the renderings. But this is what we came up with you. We got one for Chico. And we got one for DC Fly. This is all custom for them. All grills are custom. Who wants one? So all you got to do is get with Arielle. And she will come up with a custom. You can get full ice, whatever you want. Like, she did mine. And I got Dr. Mel's on mine. It would be like Blue Diamonds. Blue Diamonds would like the red enamel around it. Just to kind of like paint the picture for you. You know what I'm saying? I'm about to cry. That shit is hard, ain't it? Because you don't know, like, in my mind, like, I'm a rapper already. You can start your career today. Carlos, that's for you, though. Great. Yes. That's because we love you. We love you. That's you. Oh, I love it. We love you. You just don't understand. I'm a project nigga. You just don't understand. For you to want to come in and put Blue Diamonds in my mouth. That's the energy we're looking for, though. That's the exact energy we're always. See, why don't people have that energy? See, the thing about grills is that they're exquisite. They're so rare. They're such a hot, fine, just... Right. Just fine piece of work. I think it as art, you know? And it's just for you. And I think of a render. It's just for you. Just for Chico. Just for DC Fly. Richer than, I mean, Diamonds on your teeth. I don't know. I didn't know I was there yet. You there now. I didn't buy it. You there now. Shit. But she created that with you and mine. Looking at... They had us, like all my nephews, shout out to all my nephews, Speedy, Dr. Bo... Even... Let me tell you something. I ain't done nothing about no 85 cell shell. I'm a straight 100. So all my people, they said, watch it so they had me binge watch 85 cell back to back. And R.E.L. looked at that and came up with that for you. And I got the impression, Trace. I'm gonna take it for you. Clean. Yeah. That's just for you. Because we love you. And we appreciate you for doing this for us. For real. Tell them where they can find you. Drop the info. Because once they see this... Once they see this... We have one for all of y'all. One, two, and three. Carlos Chico and DC Fly. You can hang it on the wall. You can sleep with him. You gotta be framed. Yeah. Oh my God. Yeah. That's you. That's hard like you. But you had this one for your soft side. It's a soft side. I don't have no soft side. Yeah, you do. Both of my sides is... All right. Fuck y'all. You got a soft side. You got a soft side. Drop the info one time. What can they locate y'all? Atmelv.grill. That's M-E-L-Z. What's the phone number? What a card it is. I got a card. What's the figure of phone number right there? Four, seven, zero, six, six, one, nine, eight, four, eight. So what's the process? They gotta call them and make an appointment. You have to pay the consultation. So I'll draw up the custom grills. Tell them the difference with the consultation. Because we always get that. All that's in your bag. We bought you goodie bags, baby. Okay, that. Okay, tell them the consultation. With a camera. No, please. No, please. Straight ahead. I had this on the DM. Please get it off the chest. I gotta get it off the chest. 300 dollars is for the consultation fee. Only. It does not include the price of your grill. The price of your grill is the price of your grill. The price of your consultation is the price of your consultation. God damn it. I feel like it's been a few miscommunications. I mean, because they keep saying, is your grill 300 dollars? Is the baby's grill 500 dollars? Is Mulatto's grill 500 dollars? It ain't gotta grill yet, but we gotta design for you at Mulatto. Big Lattos is out there for the prom. You can check our Instagram page. It's on there. DM us. I'm gonna have it back to you. No, you can't embarrass me. Do you not understand? That's exactly what this is created for. The people who watch this and understand this, they gonna wanna see that there are real people who do legitimate business that look like us, that talk like us, that talk shit like us, but still give us quality that you would expect wherever you were, else you would shop. And you know what else? We just don't only do grills. Let me tell you something. Let me tell you something. I've been in private practice since 2008. That means for y'all who don't know my own business, I do veneers. I do implants. I do root canal. Hold on. Let me speak to him right away. When she say she do that, she do them side teeth. You know the ones that's missing? Yeah. She do them. We can just start right there. Just to make it simple. And you were in a special on side teeth until I'm telling you, side teeth. Motherfucker, we run a special on side teeth starting Monday. How about that? I'm telling you. What you gonna charge them? I don't know. We booked out for like three or four months. Order a bunch of side teeth. I'm telling you. Everybody need the set. They need the set. Them bitches like Bob Shedhead, like everybody missing one or two of them. You don't fuck how vegan you are. Nigga, them side teeth, let's go. Them side teeth. But we do grills and we do like real dentistry. Yeah. And the consultation, that's to make sure your teeth are healthy enough to do something too. A lot of y'all shit just in there. You won this by the way. Won? To the end of the world. It's won this by the way. Yes, sir. Literal. Literal. Literal. But she had been a sheet. Ms. Renee, they love her. We didn't see some plaque, man. We didn't see some plaque. We didn't see rows of plaque that have hardened. Calcified. Calcified. Calculus. So that it looks like a second row of teacup. I look. Stop it. I did. Then I put it on list. I need a tiny jackhammer. Yeah. A portable one. A portable one. How long y'all been in business together? Tell the story, Renee. Together. And to fill in over there. I've been doing this like, well, almost 24 years. So I'm dating myself a little bit. But anyway. Fuck these people. Once you're grown, you're grown. It don't fucking matter how old you are no more. That's right. That's right. She need a mic. They can hear her grit and Wilson sounding there. I teach classes. Trust me. They can hear her. No. But anyway. I came in to fill in and we just hit it off. I would refill them work. And she was like, let me call you over the weekend. I was like, all right, you call me. And then here I am. That's my sister. Yep. Can't you tell? That's my sister. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Same girl. Yeah. Same damn. But Arielle, on the real, she's dope with it. And like we hang with some people who do jewelry. And I was really, my heart was kind of hurt because I have the people who pay, and I'm not going to mention no names, but people pay big money. Big money. And impressions was taken on a school bus. I'm going to give an example. But they weren't taken in a professional environment. Right. So if you're going to spend that kind of money, make sure it's done by somebody like us. And I ain't tooting our horn. Our Google reviews will tell you. But make sure your teeth are healthy. If you're going to spend 10 bands, make sure you got teeth that's going to support them 10 bands. 20, 50. I mean, these people pay lots of money. I mean, it's diamonds. Right. Like individually placed diamonds that's got to be. It's Johnny Dang. Slowly, man. I mean, it's Johnny Dang. But you have the creative genius from Arielle that'll look at you and your brand and be like, boom, there it is. That's what I was going to ask you. What made you want to, you know, expand from the traditional? You know what? Can I be transparent? Yes. I've been a dentistry. Who got a calculator here? 1996. What's that? 1996 from 20, 25? Like 25 years. And, you know, I'm getting old. My OG from West Philly. And, you know, as you do dentistry, you bend over some people. So you get shoulder pains. You get back pains. You get knee pains. You get neck pains. And really what really inspired me is this one here. Like she keep me young. You can tell by my drip. D squared on it. So at this point, we will still do dentistry. We want to have fun, like hang out with you. You feel me? Because I couldn't be doing no dentistry. I mean, really, you know, in traditional dentistry, I wouldn't be on 85 cell. All right. So we looking, you know, to, you know, be on somebody's PJ. You got a PJ? A private jet? Yeah. Okay. A peach. Okay. So we just want to have fun. At the 25 years of dentistry. This red one. Red one. I want to be on somebody's. I mean, I'm serious. Listen, don't tell me you're going to do something. Don't do it. It took you. Wait. No, no, no, no. Let's tell the story. It took him since December. Tell the whole story. Tell the whole. We was at 2 Chain parking lot Christmas. December 22nd. December 22nd. December 20th. You remember that? Yeah. Okay. Right. And it took him all this time till two weeks ago to get us here. He said he loved us, but it was all kept until it happened. But we're here. But tell them, tell them what got us here. Tell them. Tell them. I'm telling them what got us here. No, please. I wasn't there. I'm going to tell them what got us here. Nav Green. Shout out to Nav Green. We went to 2 Chainz's parking lot event. You know, because I like doing shit like that and hanging out. Because I love. Because I love trap music. And I wasn't going to go to the, what you call it, seminar. But we met Nav. We met Sonny Digital. You know, all them boys, them and my nephews too. And Nav came in for some work. And I said, Nav, I said, you know this nigga named Carlos? And he said, yeah. He said, I opened a shower for him. I said, you do? I said, come over here and take this picture. Because I like to do that. Because I was trying to get to you. You was like blowing me off. So Nav, Nav come over and took the picture. We took the picture. And I sent the picture in a nanosecond. This is true. You hit me back. And said, you going to be on the show. Yeah. You know why? Why? Because Nav ain't shit. Nav was down there working with Eddie Murphy for all them months. And didn't even tell him shit about me. You want to be an actor? You want me to tell Nav? You want me to tell him? No, don't tell him Nav shit. I'm going to tell him. I ain't even tell him this. You didn't? I mean, do you want to be an actor? Because I can get you there. For real. Who got people? Who? I just said. Don't worry about it. That's what I am. I was waiting on the perfect time that I already tell you. I've been an actor. Clearly. I got some shit coming out. Oh, no, seriously. I'll pay for that. Yeah, you're going to have to.
