Yeah, Gina.
[00:00:33] Speaker E: Fizz.
[00:00:33] Speaker D: Let it out, Gina. Do it for the one time.
[00:00:36] Speaker B: Hey. I used to steal Word up magazines from Ralph's on 120th in Vermont.
And I would take out the posters and I put them all up over my bedroom. But, Fizz, you was my first celebrity crush, so I had you on my folder.
[00:00:51] Speaker C: He's single, too.
[00:00:52] Speaker B: All through.
[00:00:53] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:00:53] Speaker E: He gotta show you a fizz lesson.
Oh, y' all came with energy.
[00:00:58] Speaker A: We started, all right.
[00:01:00] Speaker F: I mean, I just got pimped out, like, two seconds.
[00:01:03] Speaker A: I don't have nothing to say about this, bro.
[00:01:05] Speaker B: I had you all over my photo. I used to say I was Lady Fizz, so it's amazing to see y' all here.
[00:01:11] Speaker D: You had an email or a password?
[00:01:13] Speaker B: No, no, no, no. I didn't do that. I didn't do it up like that.
It's really dope to talk to y'.
[00:01:20] Speaker E: All, honor y', all.
[00:01:21] Speaker A: For y' all to be here. I wanna. I mean, I know we gotta get into and we gotta go back, but first, you know, congratulations on, you know, the reunite. I think that that's huge. But I also wanna say, like, seeing y' all together is, like, something that we needed. You know what I'm saying? We needed that. Like, it's not a lot of us that we get to celebrate throughout the. And it's always something that go wrong, it go left or whatever. But seeing y' all come back together, I think is absolutely needed in the culture.
[00:01:46] Speaker C: In other words, you're saying white groups stay together all the time.
[00:01:49] Speaker A: Oh, you caught that up.
[00:01:50] Speaker D: At least they know how to work together.
[00:01:52] Speaker A: You caught that up.
I just think that y' all got so much lineage and so much history, to Gina's point, that it's important that we see that. You know what I'm saying? We just had Jagged Edge up here and the sentiment was the same.
And I think that, you know, we need that. Like, I think the youth coming up, they need to see that. So congratulations, bro.
Also, the BET performance is, I think, the first time we saw that, like, on that. On that stage outside of the tours where we saw the Reunite. The reunification of it and stuff like that. I want to know first and foremost, like, did they. Like, whose idea was that to get. Like. And then who got the first phone call, who called who? Like, how did that come together?
[00:02:30] Speaker E: You remember how that came together?
[00:02:31] Speaker D: Yeah. I don't know who got the first phone call, but I know it was BET. It was a big. What was it, 20.
[00:02:38] Speaker A: 20 years?
[00:02:38] Speaker E: Yep.
[00:02:39] Speaker D: Yeah.
[00:02:39] Speaker B: 106 and Park.
[00:02:40] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[00:02:41] Speaker D: And they were like, we want to incorporate everybody who had, like, a big impact on 106 and Park. And obviously, they called us. They called Amer Reid, they called Keisha Cole, they called Bow Wow. And they was like, man, we want y' all to come in, you know, do what y' all do. And we got together, and we, like, what y' all think?
[00:02:59] Speaker A: Was it a. Was it a unanimous decision? Like, we was like, hell, yeah, let's do it. Or, like, did it take some.
[00:03:05] Speaker C: This is Rat speaking. I don't.
[00:03:15] Speaker B: All right, man.
[00:03:16] Speaker A: Now, we immediately.
[00:03:18] Speaker C: Yo, you know, I was talking to Shaka Zulu, and he's like, man, congratulations on y' all being honored. So when we heard the opportunity, I mean, immediately, it was an honor for us to be a part of it. So I don't think anybody pushed back. I was just like. We were like, how much time we got to rehearse?
[00:03:30] Speaker D: That was the big thing for us, rehearsing straight up. Because we always look at it like, man, we want to put our best foot forward. We want to make sure we don't look like, you know, our last performance was our best performance. We want the next one to be, you know, so they're like, y' all got this much time. Like, what, y' all think we could do it? You know what I'm saying?
[00:03:44] Speaker E: Yeah. Cause it was no time.
[00:03:45] Speaker D: It was no time.
[00:03:45] Speaker E: It was like two days, two, three days.
[00:03:47] Speaker A: Oh, really?
[00:03:48] Speaker D: We won't go through what we had.
[00:03:49] Speaker B: To do to get ready for that.
[00:03:50] Speaker D: Because we did extra hour rehearsals, gym in the hotel, rehearsals. Like, we did whatever we had to do to get to that point, but it was lit.
[00:03:58] Speaker A: That's what makes y' all legendary, though, bro.
[00:04:00] Speaker B: What was it like for y' all being able to be on that set and reminiscing at 106 in park? Cause that's a huge part of y' all career.
[00:04:05] Speaker E: I think it was, you know, serendipitous. And it was. It Was very reminiscent.
[00:04:11] Speaker D: You hear him, right?
[00:04:12] Speaker C: Yeah.
[00:04:13] Speaker D: He be hitting you with the ball.
[00:04:13] Speaker B: He do that too.
[00:04:16] Speaker D: I'd be like, niggas said what?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[00:04:20] Speaker E: No, it was wonderful, you know what I mean? Because I always, in hindsight, I always look at future moments and I'll be like, wow.
I wasn't thinking about this 10 years ago. We wasn't thinking about when we were on 106 and park that it would go away or it wouldn't be this moment that we actually kind of get to relive again, you know what I mean? And it felt like that backstage, just all the hustle and bustle, it was like, it was very nostalgia, you know what I mean? But I enjoyed myself. What you thought about it, Fizz?
[00:04:51] Speaker A: I thought the same thing, man.
[00:04:54] Speaker F: No, it was lit. It was definitely like taking a trip down memory lane, you know, Especially getting there, seeing all the other artists, hearing all the music from back then. So it was dope. It took us. I remember being in the car on the way to the red carpet. Oh, it's like, what you seeing after this? Fizzo?
So he was like, man, what's up?
[00:05:18] Speaker E: Like, what we doing?
[00:05:19] Speaker A: Oh, literally on the way there, on.
[00:05:21] Speaker F: The way to the red carpet.
[00:05:22] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's what's up.
[00:05:24] Speaker F: So we was feeling something, you know what I'm saying? Like, what's next type of thing.
[00:05:29] Speaker A: That's hard.
[00:05:29] Speaker F: Yeah.
[00:05:30] Speaker B: I wanna go back. So I have a tweet that went viral. Shayroon posted it. Because I said you got served is better than Drumline, ATL and Stumpty Art Facts.
And I got tore up. I don't know if I got west coast bias or, you know, atl, atl, Stumped ER and Drumline.
[00:05:50] Speaker C: Yeah, all the films were great. Right. But what made you guys serve Unique in his own way.
[00:05:54] Speaker E: Yeah, because step up to the mic.
[00:05:56] Speaker C: Well, maybe you guys serve unique in his ways because one one. Yeah b2k in it. But it was, it was a modern day break in. Right. And everything, you know, you know, it's like a full circle moment, you know?
[00:06:06] Speaker E: Yeah. The dancing, just us in. In itself, the storyline, you know what I mean? Jennifer Freeman, Steve Harvey, you know, we got some hitters. Yeah, that's what I'm saying, man.
[00:06:17] Speaker A: It was fire.
[00:06:17] Speaker B: And I think people.
[00:06:18] Speaker D: I think people could also feel like there was a lot of authentic moments that was like, what would you say? Non scripted.
[00:06:26] Speaker E: Yeah, Facts.
[00:06:26] Speaker D: Like the way that the movie was made, the fact that we really didn't know what the other crews was going to do until it was really time to yo.
[00:06:33] Speaker E: It really.
[00:06:33] Speaker B: Whoa.
[00:06:35] Speaker D: There was a. Like, when he did the backflip in dude's face.
[00:06:38] Speaker E: Columbus Short. That was Columbus Short.
[00:06:40] Speaker B: Columbus Short is in. You got.
[00:06:42] Speaker E: I back flipped off the boy bow on his chest. Watch out.
[00:06:47] Speaker A: Wait, so that wasn't in the script?
[00:06:49] Speaker D: No, there was a lot of stuff that wasn't in the script.
[00:06:53] Speaker F: So when we got on set and was doing the battles, it was really like. We was going at it like, this is our way of fighting.
[00:06:58] Speaker A: Oh, that's hard.
[00:06:59] Speaker D: That's how that moment.
[00:07:00] Speaker E: So that's how that moment happened.
[00:07:04] Speaker D: That moment, the little sick challenge. That's how that happened.
[00:07:07] Speaker B: My favorite part is when y' all do the thing and the whole floor move.
[00:07:09] Speaker E: Come on.
Had to drop them balls.
[00:07:13] Speaker C: But there was nothing wrong with your tweet. Cause, you know, respectfully, Drumline, that's for all the drummers.
[00:07:17] Speaker E: Yeah, for sure.
[00:07:17] Speaker C: Stuff the yard to me, you know, it was the same company that you got served, so it seemed like it was. You know, it was after. But if maybe we didn't break up, we probably would have did the. You got served, too. Cause that's what. That's what stuffed the yard from.
[00:07:27] Speaker D: I started this gangster.
[00:07:28] Speaker B: I started this shit I was playing. Has that been a conversation for a sequel?
[00:07:33] Speaker C: It's been for probably, what, 20 years?
[00:07:34] Speaker D: Yeah, for 20 years, it's been a conversation. I don't know if these knees are the same, man.
[00:07:40] Speaker A: Come on, bro.
[00:07:40] Speaker F: Break dancing.
[00:07:41] Speaker D: You know, that was some different. That was some different.
[00:07:44] Speaker B: Where y' all think y' all characters are now?
[00:07:47] Speaker C: Damn.
[00:07:48] Speaker E: That's interesting.
[00:07:49] Speaker A: Great question.
[00:07:50] Speaker E: Real quick.
[00:07:50] Speaker C: Go ahead.
[00:07:50] Speaker D: Boog. Where you at?
[00:07:51] Speaker C: Wait, what was his name?
[00:07:52] Speaker A: Yeah, Rico.
[00:07:53] Speaker C: Rico.
[00:07:54] Speaker D: I'm just still trying to keep the peace, man.
[00:07:56] Speaker C: You know what I'm saying?
[00:07:57] Speaker D: I just want the crew to be together, man.
[00:07:59] Speaker C: Vic. I don't know if I ever had a home or didn't have a home, so I don't know if I was coming or going.
[00:08:04] Speaker E: I think David is.
I think David is doing choreography overseas for some major artists. You know what I'm saying?
[00:08:13] Speaker A: Okay.
[00:08:13] Speaker E: Yeah.
[00:08:14] Speaker F: Rashaan. I think he started a podcast.
[00:08:19] Speaker C: He did it for Lil Saint.
[00:08:20] Speaker A: For Lil Saint.
[00:08:22] Speaker B: I think it's time for us to acknowledge that David was the real super villain and you got served.
[00:08:26] Speaker E: Oh, my goodness.
[00:08:27] Speaker B: David was sneaking around with Leah. David done left Elgin.
[00:08:31] Speaker A: Damn.
[00:08:32] Speaker B: To get right.
[00:08:36] Speaker E: That's crazy. Yeah, I think David was.
Yeah. I guess I had to take that. I guess I had to say.
[00:08:43] Speaker A: Let me ask you a question from my Perspective. Because when I was watching it, there was a little implicit. Not. I don't want to say, like, bigotry, but like, with.
When the white boys. That's true.
[00:08:54] Speaker E: That's true.
[00:08:54] Speaker A: Okay, you're going.
[00:08:56] Speaker E: I know where you going.
[00:08:56] Speaker A: Keep going, Keep going.
[00:08:58] Speaker C: Let's go.
[00:08:58] Speaker A: It almost made it seem as though there was cultural appropriation taking place. It was the underlining tone of the film. Right. There was cultural appropriation taking place. And we had to combat that because we're the naturally talented side, Right.
[00:09:13] Speaker B: Damn. You cooking right now.
[00:09:14] Speaker A: Is that.
[00:09:15] Speaker D: Yeah.
[00:09:15] Speaker A: Do you understand that? Like, as far as.
[00:09:17] Speaker E: Yeah. We had to make money.
[00:09:19] Speaker A: There were white boys. They came hooding on what we had going on and then used the spook who sat by the door.
[00:09:25] Speaker E: Right?
[00:09:27] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:09:27] Speaker E: And we had to come up with the 5K.
[00:09:29] Speaker D: Yeah.
[00:09:30] Speaker E: We had to do some.
[00:09:31] Speaker A: So that's. So you. Okay, so we in alignment with that. Was that baked into the film or. Y'. All. This is new.
[00:09:36] Speaker E: No, this is new.
[00:09:37] Speaker C: Okay.
[00:09:38] Speaker A: This is new.
[00:09:39] Speaker E: We was kids. We just happened to be on set.
[00:09:41] Speaker D: Right. Exactly. 18.
[00:09:42] Speaker A: I don't know what the fuck going on with it. Okay, I get it.
[00:09:46] Speaker B: So Lil Saint Death, that was probably like our first generational heartbreak of our era. Kind of like similar to Queen Latifah in Set it Off. Right.
[00:09:54] Speaker C: Like, you going in.
[00:09:56] Speaker B: What was it? Was it as difficult for especially y' all two? Cause you delivered the news and then the hospital performance. Was it as difficult for you guys performing that scene as it was for us watching it?
[00:10:08] Speaker D: What's funny about that is that was the first scene we shot of the.
[00:10:11] Speaker E: Movie, which is crazy.
[00:10:13] Speaker D: Yeah.
[00:10:13] Speaker E: Went right in.
[00:10:14] Speaker D: Yeah. Talking about, Boog, I need you to really soak in.
[00:10:19] Speaker C: Book Killed that. He broke it.
[00:10:21] Speaker D: When you hit the wall, I was.
[00:10:23] Speaker E: Like, no, hell, no.
[00:10:25] Speaker B: That was improv.
[00:10:26] Speaker D: That was improv.
[00:10:27] Speaker B: It's a relationship. It was a credible situation, too, though.
[00:10:29] Speaker D: It was. It was to me, you know? Cause where we come from, like, we've all experienced that news, you know what I'm saying? From somebody that's close to us, like some street death, you know what I'm saying? And so it was something that you could relate, but you had to tap in, and everybody had to take a moment and kind of, like, walk away. I know he tapped into his. And Jennifer was thinking about her little sister, and I had to go and think about something, you know what I'm saying? And we came back and we did it. So I guess to answer the question, yeah, it was difficult to shoot that scene. Scene for sure. And then once we got into it, it just.
Yeah.
[00:11:00] Speaker A: Also, the soundtrack was top tier.
[00:11:03] Speaker B: Oh, my goodness.
[00:11:03] Speaker A: Soundtrack, top tier.
[00:11:05] Speaker B: Soundtrack went triple platinum in my CD player.
[00:11:08] Speaker A: I want to know if y'. All. If. How did y' all approach it? Was the film, the. The. The thing, the priority, like, or did y' all approach it from a musical landscape? Where we gonna have a film around this music? Like, which one was. Was the soundtrack?
[00:11:20] Speaker E: I don't remember. We were working so much. We was doing everything.
[00:11:23] Speaker F: Yeah, it was simultaneous.
[00:11:24] Speaker A: Simultaneously.
[00:11:25] Speaker C: Yeah.
[00:11:25] Speaker A: Okay. All right.
[00:11:26] Speaker C: Why wasn't the Joe Button record on our.
On the soundtrack?
[00:11:30] Speaker D: That wasn't on the soundtrack.
[00:11:31] Speaker C: That would have been crazy on the movie, though.
[00:11:33] Speaker E: Yeah, it was, but that was like, the Timberland.
[00:11:36] Speaker D: No, it wasn't on there. It was in the movie.
[00:11:37] Speaker B: No, y' all have. Y' all didn't have a feature on the movie with Joe.
[00:11:40] Speaker C: We had a feature with Lil Kim.
[00:11:41] Speaker B: I know. Fabulous, right?
[00:11:42] Speaker D: Yeah, fabulous. That was one of. That was a single Bada Boom. Yeah. But at the time, like, we were getting ready to go on tour right after we shot the movie, and so it's like everything kind of was going on at the same time. Like, that was a real industry time, and music where the industry had, like, control. So everything was kind of scheduled. You just go from this on, you got served project to a B2K thing to A. You know what I'm saying? All in the same day. So for us, we was, what, 18?
So it was just. It was like a whirlwind. You know what I mean?
[00:12:12] Speaker E: Facts.
[00:12:12] Speaker B: Is it funny to y', all seeing people reference doing it for Lil Sane on rainy days?
It's like a social media trend.
[00:12:19] Speaker D: I love it, man.
[00:12:20] Speaker C: The fact that he died, it made him, like, one of the highlights of the movie.
[00:12:25] Speaker D: Right, right.
[00:12:25] Speaker C: You know what I mean? So that part is literally carried the movie on top of it being a cult classic. Right.
[00:12:30] Speaker E: But it was like the heart scare.
[00:12:32] Speaker C: Yeah, right.
[00:12:34] Speaker D: To do it for Lil Sing.
[00:12:36] Speaker B: I mentioned Word up earlier how impactful was Word up to y' all during that era.
[00:12:40] Speaker E: Oh, my goodness, man. That was a major catalyst for our career. And also, I think that that was like, when we really started understanding the power of, like, the magazine. Cause how many. How many shoots did we do? Like, bro, we did thousands of shoots.
[00:12:56] Speaker D: I think that Word up and Right on was like, Instagram. Instagram, like, right, right, right, right.
[00:13:02] Speaker B: That was, y' all social media.
[00:13:03] Speaker D: You could read about what their favorite food is. I remember somebody dropped off a bag of hot Cheetos. To my doorstep at my house in the gated community. I said, oh, this getting serious. Yeah. Hold on, hold on.
[00:13:14] Speaker C: What's going on?
[00:13:14] Speaker D: No, for real. But they found out from those magazines.
[00:13:19] Speaker C: And I would have to add on to that. It played such a huge role, like, in our career because when we went on our first tour, people actually knew who we were from the magazines. So we had a huge buzz without having a single, without having a record deal, you know, which led to great things.
[00:13:35] Speaker D: Shout out to Cynthia, man.
[00:13:36] Speaker E: Yeah, Cynthia.
For real.
[00:13:38] Speaker D: For real. Between them and bet, man. That's bts.
[00:13:42] Speaker E: We was colored.
[00:13:43] Speaker D: Yeah, yeah, all the way.
[00:13:44] Speaker B: Do y' all remember the fan fiction stories?
[00:13:48] Speaker D: The what?
[00:13:48] Speaker E: The fan fiction. I do remember it. I don't remember making up these stories.
[00:13:52] Speaker B: About y' all and being with y' all and stuff.
So y' all never read the magazines?
[00:13:58] Speaker E: Yeah, I remember the fan fiction.
[00:14:01] Speaker D: I don't. I'm not gonna.
[00:14:03] Speaker F: You had a fan fiction in there.
[00:14:05] Speaker A: I was too young. Rav is like, get to it. He don't know what the fuck is going.
[00:14:09] Speaker D: Yeah, I'm a little lost.
[00:14:11] Speaker B: We don't got enough time.
[00:14:13] Speaker D: On the next episode of.
[00:14:15] Speaker B: What do y' all remember about the Scream tours, boy?
[00:14:19] Speaker F: Oh, my God.
I remember one thing.
Every time I think about the Scream tour, all I think about is this big ass green bag we used to carry.
[00:14:28] Speaker D: Oh, that Scream tour one.
[00:14:30] Speaker B: What was in it?
[00:14:30] Speaker F: Yeah, Scream tour.
[00:14:32] Speaker E: Oh, yeah.
[00:14:33] Speaker A: Like wardrobe.
[00:14:33] Speaker E: Yeah.
[00:14:34] Speaker F: We was hunting for the show and it was like, what? It was like three, four outfits in there. So four times 16 outfits in that joint. And shoes. Like, we go arm to arm.
Each person take.
Take half the bag and be walking with it. We had a show in Orlando at Disney World, and we had to walk through the whole Disney park with the bag.
Oh, my God. That was the most. That's when I think of Scream tour.
[00:15:02] Speaker A: I think that was that.
[00:15:03] Speaker D: Yeah.
[00:15:04] Speaker E: You know what I think of? I think about how, like, that first show and then to the last show, that first Scream tour, and how basically that next Scream tour, too, we like co headline with Bow Wow. And then there was this one time. I don't know if you remember, but, you know, we had four security guards. We all had our own separate security guards. And literally when we would come off our bus, like, it would be fans lined up. And this one particular time, was it Detroit?
[00:15:34] Speaker C: I don't know, maybe coastal kids or something? Or that tour.
[00:15:37] Speaker E: Yeah.
They pulled Boog up from his legs over the barricade.
[00:15:44] Speaker F: Yes.
[00:15:44] Speaker E: He almost died that day.
[00:15:48] Speaker B: No, for Real.
[00:15:49] Speaker E: We was like, what the hell?
[00:15:51] Speaker A: Wait, wait, wait, wait. So some fans?
[00:15:53] Speaker E: Yeah.
[00:15:53] Speaker A: Girls.
[00:15:54] Speaker E: Yes.
[00:15:55] Speaker A: They picked you up?
[00:15:56] Speaker F: Yeah.
[00:15:56] Speaker E: Yeah.

[00:19:12] Speaker D: Oh, yeah.
[00:19:12] Speaker F: And then he started going after it.
[00:19:14] Speaker D: Yeah. I was probably like a 10 year old.
[00:19:15] Speaker F: What you call yourself a professional?
[00:19:17] Speaker D: I was a master gyrator.
[00:19:18] Speaker E: Master gyra.
[00:19:21] Speaker D: Master gyrator.
[00:19:22] Speaker A: So peep game, right? Me and her just, we just talked about this on the radio and we had the listeners chime songs that we were too young to be listening to. So I could take the B2K discography and just dump some of that in there, you know what I'm saying? Because she said she was eight with.
[00:19:39] Speaker B: This, you know, I might have been six.
[00:19:42] Speaker E: Damn.
[00:19:43] Speaker D: I mean. Yeah. When you think about, huh. I don't know what you want in this.
[00:19:47] Speaker E: That's true.
[00:19:48] Speaker D: Tell me, can you handle this? And then Raz is up there.
[00:19:51] Speaker A: That's what I'm saying.

[00:20:05] Speaker F: Wife what I need with a wife at 15?
[00:20:08] Speaker D: Y' all was a player. We trying to get. It was edgy. We trying to have a night.
[00:20:12] Speaker A: No, it was that.
[00:20:14] Speaker E: It was edgy, though.
[00:20:15] Speaker A: It was. It wasn't distasteful.
[00:20:17] Speaker E: But see, this, what I'm saying, Like, remember school dances? Like, we did grind on the girls, we was freaking, but we wasn't thinking about sex, per se. You know what I'm saying?
[00:20:28] Speaker D: Yes, she was.
[00:20:28] Speaker E: I knew tt might have got a little hard, but I knew you at 15.
[00:20:34] Speaker D: What's that?
[00:20:35] Speaker C: What's that? Passage.
[00:20:36] Speaker D: Passage.
[00:20:37] Speaker E: Huh?
[00:20:38] Speaker F: What that, what that was.
[00:20:39] Speaker D: No doubt. Oh, I need.

[00:20:54] Speaker A: Okay.
[00:20:55] Speaker B: No, was you really 15 when you said that?
[00:20:57] Speaker A: And he wrote it.
[00:20:57] Speaker C: Him and Blue wrote it.
[00:20:58] Speaker B: Okay.
[00:20:59] Speaker A: All right.
[00:21:00] Speaker B: Okay. So speaking of all of this, though, did you guys ever. Cause we always talk about how men over sexualize younger women in the industry and stuff like that, but we never talk about how women can over sexualize teenage male. Teenage stars. Did y' all deal with any inappropriate adult women fans?
[00:21:16] Speaker E: What?
[00:21:17] Speaker C: We was pretty protected. I mean, we were.
[00:21:19] Speaker D: You was.
You was fizz. Y' all remember that 51 year old.
[00:21:24] Speaker A: Lady at one time. Oh, shit.
[00:21:26] Speaker D: Yeah. She was after some little fizz.
I don't know. What are you talking about?
[00:21:34] Speaker A: That's because ran that. Yeah, he ran it.
[00:21:37] Speaker D: He did.
[00:21:37] Speaker A: He did.
[00:21:40] Speaker C: Fizzle. You took that down.
[00:21:42] Speaker D: Hey, Raz.
[00:21:43] Speaker A: Getting out of here. Turn the arrow on this.
[00:21:46] Speaker B: I'm cool.
[00:21:50] Speaker E: I don't think it was too crazy at 18.
Yeah, I mean, it was some moments, but it wasn't too crazy.
[00:21:55] Speaker A: Okay.
[00:21:56] Speaker E: There was some mothers and daughters. I mean, I would say it's more crazy now, though. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because it's like, oh, no, you grown.
[00:22:02] Speaker A: You're grown for real.
[00:22:04] Speaker D: That's more so what I'm saying, like, when. When we hit that 18 mark, that's when it was like, okay, you can start to kind of catch the vibes.
[00:22:14] Speaker E: Yeah.
[00:22:14] Speaker D: You know what I mean? Yeah, but. But I'm gonna be real. Like, if you knew B2K and you saw the performances, you know what I'm saying? We was. We were some nasty little dudes, man.
[00:22:26] Speaker A: Thank you, aj.
[00:22:27] Speaker D: I don't know why they up here.
[00:22:29] Speaker A: Trying to thank you for giving it real, bro.
[00:22:31] Speaker D: Thank you, Hunters, bro.
[00:22:33] Speaker A: Thank you, bro. Cause we heard. We're just arguing about this. I'm like, bro, that's Cap. Them was like, I was around, fool. Like, I know what the was going on.

[00:22:44] Speaker E: We was experienced.
[00:22:45] Speaker D: Thank you.
[00:22:45] Speaker B: All right, well, to speed it up, a couple years ago. Omarion, you gotta explain this shit.
[00:22:50] Speaker E: What?
[00:22:50] Speaker B: Them damn watermelons on stage.
[00:22:52] Speaker D: Nasty, man. I told you.
[00:22:53] Speaker E: Yeah, I mean, it's just. It's just the proverbial, you know, example to let a woman know that she'll get ate up.
[00:23:01] Speaker F: She'll get.
[00:23:03] Speaker E: No, you get ate up. That's all that was. That's all that was. Just to let the ladies know, you know what I mean? If you taste sweet like watermelon, you might get ate up.
[00:23:12] Speaker D: Okay, Just start two years ago. That's what I'm trying to tell you.
[00:23:19] Speaker A: That's the Scorpio.
[00:23:22] Speaker B: What are all y' all signs?
[00:23:23] Speaker D: Yeah, I'm a Leo.
[00:23:24] Speaker B: Oh, me too.
[00:23:25] Speaker C: Yeah, I'm a Gemini.
[00:23:27] Speaker F: Sagittarius.
[00:23:28] Speaker B: Scorpio.
What's your favorite B2K deep cuts? Mine is Sprung Sleeping out the Hood and Streets is called.
[00:23:35] Speaker E: Oh, okay. All you got served.
[00:23:38] Speaker C: Okay.
[00:23:38] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:23:39] Speaker E: What's your favorite D cup, bro?
[00:23:40] Speaker D: It's probably sleeping.
[00:23:41] Speaker E: Sleeping.
[00:23:42] Speaker D: Yeah.
[00:23:42] Speaker E: Yeah, that was a banger.
[00:23:44] Speaker D: Yeah, that was a stupid banger.
[00:23:47] Speaker E: Yeah, I think mine is everything.
[00:23:51] Speaker C: Go ahead.
[00:23:51] Speaker A: Right?
[00:23:51] Speaker C: Hey, little lady.
[00:23:53] Speaker E: Oh, okay, baby girl.
[00:23:57] Speaker F: That's a classic.
[00:24:00] Speaker C: Yeah, that was pretty good.
[00:24:01] Speaker A: And what are your thoughts on the boy band thing versus being a group? Because I remember that, like when we had the discussions about it's like a band plays instruments versus a male R B group or singers or rappers or what. What that might look like.
[00:24:16] Speaker C: Verbiage is. Verbiage is everything. I mean, why would you try to explain it? Like, if you want to be technical, a band, you know, technically as a musician playing instruments and stuff like that. But do people really put a definition behind when you say a boy group or something like that?
[00:24:30] Speaker E: Right? I guess people do, yeah. What would be a men band now or men.
[00:24:37] Speaker D: I think that B2K is a form of a band because we all are different instruments, like, you know what I'm saying? Like, truthfully, when you break the group down, if you was be able to hang with us and listen to our powwows about like what we gon do, each person plays a different part that's similar to an instrument that makes the music. You know what I mean? So what makes this group is four different.
[00:24:59] Speaker C: Different instruments.
[00:25:00] Speaker D: And that's what I think is intriguing about us because we all have different personalities. We all have different dressing styles, we all have different views. So it's like when we can put that together, it's like a full course meal in a sense.
[00:25:12] Speaker A: Different ingredients.
[00:25:13] Speaker D: Yeah.
[00:25:14] Speaker A: Speaking of that, who's like. Was it the original idea to have singers and a vocalist and then. And also a rapper or like the original group? Like the. When the first idea of B2K was that always the premise fears or.
[00:25:27] Speaker F: I think with the.
The people that were putting us together. I think that was just the formula back then.
[00:25:35] Speaker E: Yeah, yeah. You gotta have a rapper, you gotta have a rapper, you gotta have a, you know, singer and then you gotta have, you know, book he talking on the record and then, you know, rats backing me up.
[00:25:44] Speaker A: Right, right, right, right. Got you.
[00:25:46] Speaker B: I don't know if this is the thing.
[00:25:47] Speaker E: Right.
[00:25:48] Speaker C: I was thinking about Book singing the leads on Girlfriend. Book was singing in the background.
Bump, bump, bump.
[00:25:53] Speaker E: Yeah.
[00:25:54] Speaker C: Fizz, don't act like you can't sing. Hmm.
That's what I was thinking.
[00:26:00] Speaker E: Yeah. I think we was all just fitting in.
[00:26:02] Speaker D: Yeah. Originally, though, like, what Fizz said, though, that was that formula that they had. That was like the formula for the industry, in a sense. You know what I mean? Yeah. But it started to evolve because, like I said, we had our own vision as well as what we wanted the group to be. And Fiz always wanted to be a rapper, you know what I'm saying? That was his thing when he came into the group, is that he loved rap music. Kris Kross was his inspiration, you know what I'm saying? And so it's like it naturally kind of happened like that. Like, if somebody was gonna rap, it was gonna be Fizz, you know what I'm saying? And then even, like, with the vocals, like, Omari was the most advanced at the time when it was time to record, when it came to singing, you know what I mean? So it made sense for it to be dominant him, you know what I'm saying? Singing the leads because it sounded the best when we. When we. When we cut the records, you know? But as we continued to get better and we continued to be. And then Raz came into the fold of singing, then I came into the fold of singing because it's literally an art that you have to practice. You know what I mean? And so that's why when we got to the second album, it was more diverse and, you know, so. So forth. Yeah, yeah.
[00:27:14] Speaker C: I saw two leads on that album.
[00:27:16] Speaker A: Is the Gots To Be video, like, I guess, inspired by the Backstreet Boys? I want it that Way video.
No.
All right.
[00:27:24] Speaker C: No, we love the Backstreet Boys and say we love all the group. We love all the groups, but Dave Myers actually. We talked about. Dave Myers actually directed that video. I wish they would have actually let him do the concept that he had.
[00:27:34] Speaker A: Oh, it did.
[00:27:35] Speaker C: My personal event. Yeah, it was.
[00:27:36] Speaker A: Oh, okay.
[00:27:37] Speaker B: Was the zipper still in it, though?
[00:27:40] Speaker C: Alpha's is probably still the same.
[00:27:43] Speaker B: I asked Twitter, what should I ask you guys? And they said to ask if. Is that the dream singing on the second verse of everything? I asked Chad Jupiter. Chad Jupiter said, that's Raz.
[00:27:53] Speaker C: That's right. Yeah, I'm on the second verse.
[00:27:56] Speaker A: Hey, Raz, I don't know if you just said, Want to get to the front?
[00:28:04] Speaker D: Now it's your turn.
[00:28:05] Speaker A: Raz, you're part of a group called B2K.
[00:28:08] Speaker C: Oh, yeah. Thank you.
[00:28:08] Speaker A: It's a legendary group. Y' all going on tour next year.
[00:28:12] Speaker C: Yeah, sometimes I forget, but I think.
[00:28:15] Speaker F: I think.
[00:28:15] Speaker E: I think he did leave his. Like, his vocals. Yeah.
[00:28:23] Speaker A: Oh, okay. So, okay, that was Dream's first placement.
[00:28:25] Speaker C: So shout out to the Dream.
[00:28:26] Speaker A: You know, Shout out to the dream Legend.
[00:28:27] Speaker E: Straight up Legend.
[00:28:28] Speaker B: That's his first placement?
[00:28:29] Speaker C: Yeah, that was his first placement. But the cool part about B2K, we've been able to. We've been able to grow and evolve and that.
[00:28:34] Speaker D: That.
[00:28:34] Speaker F: That.
[00:28:35] Speaker C: That brings me a lot of excitement to. To say that Amari just announced it, that we're getting ready to go back in the studio. So I'm excited to see what that's gonna sound like.
[00:28:43] Speaker A: Yes, sir.
[00:28:44] Speaker C: You know what I mean? Cause we need some new music, right?
[00:28:47] Speaker E: Oh, for sure, for sure.
[00:28:49] Speaker C: Let me bring my mic up here real quick.
[00:28:51] Speaker B: I don't know if this is a LA thing or if we just all did this when we was kids, but we used to all say that people that was just really close to us or been friends of ours for a long time was our cousins.

[00:32:03] Speaker D: Okay. For sure.
[00:32:04] Speaker E: I don't know. We have to talk to Swizz. We have to see.
[00:32:06] Speaker B: Yeah, we need that.
[00:32:07] Speaker A: We need that. Just culturally.
[00:32:08] Speaker B: We just need that a clip just resurfaced from way long, long, long time ago. I think it was probably like 2007 with bow wow. You and Bow Wow arguing about picking a single. Was y' all arguing about girlfriend?
[00:32:20] Speaker C: There wasn't arguing. Y' all look passionate about Right.
[00:32:23] Speaker E: Nah. Yeah. We was being born, but it was girlfriend.
[00:32:26] Speaker B: So you said you didn't think it was a good single, and he said he thought it was a good one. Looking back.
[00:32:31] Speaker C: Oh, this is good.
[00:32:32] Speaker B: How do you feel now?
[00:32:34] Speaker E: I feel like it still was a cool record, but again, let me hold you just had a different type of.
[00:32:40] Speaker B: Oh, y' all was arguing about those, so you knew.
[00:32:42] Speaker A: You already knew what it. Let me hold you it was gonna be.
[00:32:44] Speaker E: Yeah, for sure. But now I get it.
[00:32:46] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:32:46] Speaker C: Yeah.
[00:32:47] Speaker B: I didn't know he was letting me hold you.
[00:32:49] Speaker E: Yeah. Because him and Jermaine actually fell out during that time, and I was like, in the middle of it. I'm like, what the hell? You know what I mean? Because when we were in the studio, Jermaine was just playing video games.
[00:33:01] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:33:01] Speaker E: And that pissed Bow Wow off. You know what I mean? We still got that record, though, so. Shout Out.
[00:33:06] Speaker C: Yeah.
[00:33:06] Speaker B: Yeah. Those are both good choices.
[00:33:09] Speaker E: Yeah, go ahead.
[00:33:10] Speaker A: No, my last question for y' all is, like, this time around, y' all came back together. One, I guess. What brought y' all back together and then what makes this time different? Different?
[00:33:22] Speaker F: God brought us back together. First off, you know, it was that time, like you said, the world needed it.
I think we felt it all in our spirits that we needed it. You know, all of our kids needed to see this again, a moment for them.
So I think that's my take on it.
[00:33:42] Speaker C: What you think?
[00:33:43] Speaker E: Well, the tour is called Boys for Life. And, you know, because we started so young, you know, we weren't necessarily the authors of our journey. A lot of the things that we experienced was because of third parties, you know what I'm saying? As far as the energy and, you know, just what brothers go through, you know what I'm saying? So I think that this tour is special because now we are curating and becoming the author of our own destinies. And, you know, we just. We're grateful and we're hoping that, you know, it's an example to people out there that, you know, an individual is powerful, no doubt. But a group is more powerful, you know, I'm saying.
So I think that this was meant to be.
[00:34:31] Speaker D: Yeah.
[00:34:31] Speaker C: So if I can add on, I would definitely say man salute to Amari solo career, because he's had a wonderful career.
I got this from O. It's about completion. You know what I mean? I feel like we.
We started something, we didn't finish it. And, you know, I'm just. I'm really grateful to. Because this is my family. I Grew up out of at a challenging time as a kid. Right. And these are my brothers. It's like my real family. Right. So, you know, I have some things that I had to take accountability for and grow up and mature. So I just feel like this is like that moment and we're in a good space. It's real, you know what I'm saying? We're not here for the money. I mean, the money's going to come, right? But we're here for finishing up the story, the legacy, our kids and family.
[00:35:08] Speaker A: So I respect that.
[00:35:10] Speaker B: Y' all energy feel good too.
[00:35:12] Speaker D: Yeah. I think that it's really about the representation of the importance of family and relationships. Because even if it's not music, you know, family gatherings and seeing your loved ones and reconciling, you know what I'm saying, is important because life is so short and us all having children, this is just like a powerful statement to them because they even have trials in their relationships in life with people that are close to them, brothers, sisters, family members. And it's just a testament that conversations can heal things. Communication is key, you know what I mean? And us having that hard conversation brought us back to here. And now our kids can see that at once. If they go on YouTube or if they go on any, you know what I'm saying? They could go dig up like, y' all wasn't cool and y' all was arguing and y' all was mad, you know what I mean? And now they like, wait, y' all laughing and talking and hanging out and about to go back on tour. Well, maybe I can fix that relationship with this person, you know what I mean? And now we could all be back at the cookout hanging out, you know, because family is right now. I think family is very important. And we had a point in. In the world where literally the devil, or whatever you want to call it, is trying to divide and conquer, trying to devour us, you know what I mean? With the social medias and the phones and being isolated, you know what I mean? It's broken up communication. So we're kind of like showing the world that no matter what it is, you know, you can get past it. You just gotta have that conversation and lead with love facts.
[00:36:45] Speaker A: And thank y' all for that, bro. Like, we look forward to this tour, you know what I'm saying? We're gonna be out there cheering y' all on. I look forward to the music. I know it's gonna be edgy, as you always say, but I appreciate y' all for coming through and keeping it real with us.
[00:36:58] Speaker B: One more thing. Any conversation about a biopic.
[00:37:03] Speaker D: Not that I know.
[00:37:03] Speaker F: We ain't that old yet.
[00:37:08] Speaker C: Yeah, it seems like we're still writing a story.
[00:37:09] Speaker B: There's some conversations.
[00:37:10] Speaker C: I just want to take this time to shout out BPC for believing in us.
[00:37:14] Speaker E: You know what I mean?
[00:37:15] Speaker C: You know? You know, because this group is a special group and it took some. Some work to get it back together the first time and the fact that it came together so organically and, you know, shout out to bow. He's celebrating 25 years. Shout out to everybody that's on the tour, man, so. Oh, and James, for cleaning my teeth today, man. James accounted.
[00:37:32] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. Shout out to our dentist, yo, our dentist.
[00:37:35] Speaker A: Thank you, bro. Thank y' all for coming through. B2K is here, man. Legendary. It's effective immediately.
