DJ Envy

Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson

Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson

DJ Envy
You heard the man. Catch the new series fightland. Kicking off July 31st only on Starz. Now let me go catch the premiere.
April
I feel like a little bit more pressure in this role. I really prefer to be behind the scenes personally. Like I. That's why I'm comfortable. I think that's In a lot of ways, that's where Savannah has been comfortable. That's what we probably have in common. But she's more in front than she would like to be, I think, because of her situation. But for me, I feel like I like being behind the scenes, so I think this is harder.
Drea Nicole
Yeah.
Lex P
I think the hardness comes from too, is like, a lot of times you'll say one thing and people will completely take it out of context, and it's like, bruh, do y' all not have conversations with y' all friend? Are you joking? Are you saying something? It's meant to be taken. Lighthearted. I think that'd be the hardest thing for me. Cause, like, sometimes Dre will make a face or I'll make a face and be like, oh, my God, they hate each other. They're about to break up.
Drea Nicole
It's like, bruh, really, bruh, we just having a bad day. My n pissed me off.
Lex P
You know what I'm saying? Or even where we might be just
Drea Nicole
my mama, baby mad. Yeah. Yeah.
Lex P
So I think that'll probably be something that y' all will have to deal with. That's gonna get on your nerves is like, they're gonna, like, try to dissect yalls friendship. For sure.
April
Like, I think for me, I don't read anything.
Drea Nicole
Yeah.
April
Like, I read the comments. I don't look at it. I don't. Don't tag me on it. Like, I mean, I see it.
Savannah
It don't it. But it doesn't bother me because I know what's real.
Lex P
Yeah.
Savannah
People got a million and one things to say on social media, and they are going to say it like, o,
Lex P
What's up, y'? All? It's your girl Lex P. And it's

Savannah
I'm so happy.
April
I Feel like you guys are our podcaster soulmates.
Lex P
Yes, we are.
Drea Nicole
I agree.
Lex P
You know what I'm saying? I feel like a lot of times when people are in this space and they do podcasts, like quads is kept. Like, people are careful or they really don't want to collaborate with people. It's a lot of gatekeepers.
Drea Nicole
You know what I'm saying?
Lex P
So. And one thing about me and Dre, we don't care. We'll go talk to a roach if you listen.
Lex P (co-host)
Not the roach. Hey, I'll talk to anybody if they got. If it has ears.
Lex P
I'm talking.
Drea Nicole
Cause the beginnings. We had a roach.
Lex P (co-host)
We did.
Drea Nicole
We had a roach on one of our episodes.
Lex P
We was in an old janky ass building, and I'm cracking my jokes. I'm thinking, I'm killing it. We going viral. I'm like, our numbers are up. It was a roach behind me, and we didn't know.
Drea Nicole
And it was just crawling.
Savannah
Oh, no.
Lex P
And we tried to delete the episode.
Sephora Advertiser
Yeah.
Lex P
He was a. That was our first guest.
Lex P (co-host)
Yeah.
Lex P
That was our first.
Lex P (co-host)
Foremost.
Drea Nicole
It was our first poem.
April
Oh, my God, that's so funny.
Lex P (co-host)
So how have y' all been?
Lex P
Like, what's been going on?
Savannah
We good?
Lex P
Yeah.
Savannah
Lots of things going on.
April
Lots of things we're trying to figure out. Well, I feel like we figured it out.
Lex P
Okay.
April
But we're trying to step into kind of the essence of who you guys are. We're doing 50 episodes for everybody's Crazy.
Lex P (co-host)
Come on now.
Drea Nicole
Oh, wow.
Lex P
That's a big deal. Cuz I'm telling y'.
Lex P (co-host)
All.
Lex P
I see people start episode three. I'm like, where to go?
April
Yes.
Lex P
They be finishing. They be like, I'm retiring. What?
Drea Nicole
I mean, it's difficult to stay consistent in this space. For sure. So y' all are batch recording.
April
We're back to recording. But also consistency. I think consistency brings you the success.
Lex P (co-host)
Yes.
April
And I think we have a different outlook on this career path. Ok. Because I feel like we sat with y' all and we like, oh, we could maybe do this.
Drea Nicole
Y' all could definitely do this.
April
I feel like we kind of played in this space, but it was like non committal. So I feel like we were very situationship.
Lex P
Yeah.
April
And now we are getting married.
Lex P (co-host)
Okay, I like that.
Drea Nicole
I like that, too.
April
Yes. Yes.
Savannah
So, yeah.
April
So we were like, we think we want to sleep with you, but we gonna be right back.
Drea Nicole
Okay, let me see.
Lex P (co-host)
Then we gonna be right now, y'
Lex P
all standing the block.
April
We like. And we're like, this is it.
Lex P
For us.
Drea Nicole
Y' all like it here.
Lex P
We like y'.
Sephora Advertiser
All.
April
We think we like it here.
Drea Nicole
You think you like it here? Okay.
Lex P (co-host)
Yeah.
April
And I think it's been nice to watch other women like yourselves do what you're doing. You guys are on tour. Like, I think I be like, okay, look at them.
Lex P (co-host)
Yeah. All right.
April
Like, I be proud.
Drea Nicole
Yeah, that was a lie.
April
What we doing? Okay, Houston, 2500. All right. Sold out. Like, it's nice to see it. Yeah, I think that is. It makes you seem like it's possible for us as well.
Lex P (co-host)
Yeah.
DJ Envy
Yeah.
Drea Nicole
Well, first of all, it's definitely possible.
Lex P
And I'm not saying that, but I'm saying that because y' all have a good product. Like, I went on the podcast, and I genuinely had a good time.
Drea Nicole
Me too.
Lex P
When me and Drea do interviews with people and we'll leave, we be like, ooh, how long you think they got? Yeah, yeah. But we went on there, and I'm like, this is a great idea. It's unique in this space, the way y' all take calls. Y' all have yalls banter. It's a good show. And I get really upset when I see black women who have a good show and they just kind of give up because we were at the BET Awards all weekend, all doing the stuff. And I'm like, it should be more black women podcasters in here. Like, I feel like when we show up in these spaces, it really just be me and Draya, and I'm like, so much space and opportunity for y' all to really, like, go in and do.
April
But I will say it is a learning curve. Like, I think you guys have mastered it in a way that people don't talk about. It's like, oh, they do content. Like, it's more than that. It's having a great producer, having somebody to shoot behind the scenes. Y' all came on our show.
Drea Nicole
We ain't know what Patreon was.
Lex P (co-host)
Patreon.
April
We pulled out that little camera, like,
Lex P (co-host)
okay, get in the camera and say, hey. We was like.
April
I was like, girl, I was researching
Lex P (co-host)
Patreon for the last three months.
Drea Nicole
We don't get BTs if we don't do nothing else.
April
So that was what I think. It just bought a different light to, like, what is possible. It's not easy, though.
Drea Nicole
No, it's not.
Lex P
It's not.
Drea Nicole
It doesn't come naturally to us.
Savannah
They be like, come on, come on, come on. Y' all just roll through it. It's not easy.
Lex P
No, it's not.
Savannah
Acting Just a little bit.
Lex P (co-host)
It is.
Drea Nicole
It's definitely acting, for sure. Sometimes. I mean, we talked about. No. You reacting to it, but we've talked about this on our show. Like, I mean, we've been doing this show since 27. 2018. 2018. So Lex and I have, like, transformed into so many different versions of ourselves, and, like, it's been times where we didn't get along. Like, we both lost parents. Like, it's real life situations that we having to navigate. And so sometimes when the camera come out, you gotta put on the fab and, like, make it work. And you might not necessarily be feeling what's coming off on camera, but you gotta do your job.
April
And I think that's the interesting part. When we would have those moments, we'd be like, all right, we'll see y' all in three months.
Lex P (co-host)
Yeah, we'd be gone.
April
We were like, okay, we're gonna take a break. We'll see you next episode, and we're gonna go on vacation all summer. So now this is not. That's not our reality.
Lex P
Yes. Because one thing about it in the podcasting world, if you don't post for, like, two weeks, you're literally forgotten about that quick. Like, you have to be consistent, because they'll be like, oh, well, they're not serious, and they're not, you know, they will kind of move on for real.
Savannah
So I guess that's been nice with our audience.
April
Our audience. Like, where y' all at?
Lex P (co-host)
Yeah, because y'. All.
Lex P
That's. Because it's a good product. They gonna be coming back, you know,
Drea Nicole
And I feel like, too. Y' all had the luxury, though, to be able to do that, like, because y' all both have other businesses. Y' all have other things going on, Lex. And I was like, we gotta make this shit work, bitch.
Lex P (co-host)
I'm coming to work. What are we gonna do? I'm at work, man. Hey, y', all, it's Lex. We got a show.
Drea Nicole
What the are we going to do? So I do want to talk about, too, like, what was the inspiration behind y' all deciding to start the podcast together? Because obviously, y' all have been friends for years, but what made y' all be like, okay, we going to start a podcast. We going to give people a little more insight to us and our personality.
Savannah
Yeah, it definitely came off of FaceTime calls and US just downloading on the day and being like, yo, what the is going on? Like, people are crazy.
Drea Nicole
Everything is crazy.
Savannah
And just the different things that she would deal with and things I would deal with it's like, are other people going through this? Like, we got to know what is. What is happening in the world.
Drea Nicole
Right.
Savannah
That's kind of where it stemmed from.
April
And I think also we had gotten asked to do a show, and we did a little pilot.
Lex P
Okay.
April
And we were like, yeah, no, it
Lex P
was like a reality show kind of like.
April
Like, follow us. Like, oh, my God, YouTube friends. And I was like, this shit is fake. Because I think some of the things that we were saying, they were like, sorry, that's gonna need to be edited. And I was like, no, that's how we really feel. And then we were like, well, what else could we do that allows us freedom of speech? I think it really goes back to speaking your truth, being different or being the same and being in a space where it's welcome. So we felt like, okay, we can have a podcast maybe.
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
Yeah.
April
But we didn't really mean to have a podcast. So we trialed it, and we had a trap phone we bought from the.
Lex P
From the gas station.
April
From the gas station.
Drea Nicole
You said a trap phone.
April
We posted the number on Savannah's Instagram because she got the most followers.
Drea Nicole
Okay.
April
And we was like, all right, let's see if people call us. And then that thing was like, I'm already know. So we were answering it, and we were recording ourselves.
Orderly Meds Advertiser
Yeah.
April
And we'd be in the phone like, okay, you gotta talk louder.
Savannah
It was the worst setup. We made it happen.
April
And then somebody posted it on Twitter. Oh, and our agent called us. We had an agent at wme, and he called. He's like, y' all having a podcast? And like, no, we. No, what you talking about? And he, like, was on Twitter, but we ain't got Twitter.
Drea Nicole
Yeah.
April
So we didn't even see it.
Lex P
Oh, it's hell over there.
Drea Nicole
And good childhood hell.
Charlamagne Tha God
We had to get off.
Drea Nicole
That's literally the worst ever.
April
Like, so we were like, no, we weren't sure. And he like, I think you guys are going to do a podcast. Y' all should try on it. And they were great. They were supportive. They were like, set it up. See if you can shoot a few episodes. See how it goes. And then we did it. And we were like, oh, this is fun. Yeah, it's nice to sit here and just be free. Right. I will say that.
Lex P
And I think we can attest to that, too. Like, doing TV is very different because they're like, no, say it like this. But I'm like, I don't talk like that.
DJ Envy
Correct.
Lex P
I'm not gonna say it like, that, like, I be. I'm the one that be pushing my mic. I don't talk like that. This sounds corny, but being on the podcast, like, you can have, you know, freedom to be yourself. And I think that's really what people don't realize that entertainment is missing real humans, like, it doesn't. Yes. Authenticity. Like, it doesn't matter what walk you are in life. Like, you said, everybody's crazy. I'm. We going through shit, and we need to talk about it. We need to vent about it.
April
You know, I feel like that is what makes it beauty. And then when you have a connection with people you don't know.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yes.
April
Like, Savannah was like. When she told me about y', all, she was like, okay, I got somebody. We need to come on the show. I'm like, who? She like, poor minds. I was like, pure minds. I think I found.
Savannah
She called y' all pure minds for the longest. I'm like, baby, it's.
Lex P (co-host)
Cause look at him. So weird.
Lex P
Pure minds is crazy.
Lex P (co-host)
I know pure about this show, baby girl.
April
I was like, if we was in the DMs. I was in the DMs. I don't even. My page is private. I was in the DMs, trying to find y'.
DJ Envy
All.
April
Trying to figure out. And I'm like, I found them. They say, yes. Like, and I just think it's nice also when you admire another group of individuals and they're like, yeah, let's do it.
Lex P
Yeah.
April
So when y' all came on, I was like, oh, my God, this is so hoot.
Drea Nicole
Well, first of all, are you kidding me? We were honored. Like, when y' all slid in our DMs, it was like, bitch, what?
April
I was like, hey, guys.
Drea Nicole
Wondering, like, wondering.
Lex P
Wondering.
Drea Nicole
We could come tomorrow, right?
Lex P (co-host)
I already bought my ticket. I had my spirit. Spirit fly ready. I got the big seat in the front. Hello.
April
So excited. I was like. And then when we had the same birthday, it was game over.
Orderly Meds Advertiser

April

Lex P
clothes y' all do.
Drea Nicole
She said, we are wear the dress that I had on yesterday.

Lex P (co-host)

April
I'll be nervous.
Lex P
You can show a little assy, but still be classy. You know, it's a balance.
Drea Nicole
It's a balance.
April
I'm not sure about that yet.
Lex P (co-host)
Why? And you're.
April
You never show a little assy.
Savannah

April
Well, now, we always shared an office.
Sephora Advertiser
Okay.
April
The office that you guys came to. But we moved to a house now and we built our own studio.
Lex P
Okay.
April
So now I feel like we're gonna be there more. We just moved, but I feel like we do a really good job of keeping the business. The business and the friendship. The friendship for sure. And I feel like we only film once a month for a few days, and we just bang it out. And that may change now that we want to do on 50 episodes, but I don't think we would be a group that would be like, let's film twice a week for a whole month. Like, that would drive me crazy.
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
Yeah.
April
Because I think that this is harder for me than running a business.
Lex P
Really?
April
Yes.
Drea Nicole
Why is it harder?
April
I just think you have to be on.
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
Yeah.
Lex P
Like, you can be behind the scenes with your business and you don't gotta. But you can handle it.
April
I gotta be sending email.
Lex P (co-host)
Yeah.
April
Who the gonna say something?
Lex P
Yeah.
April
Like, if you on ear, like, it's a little bit different. Like, I feel like a little bit more pressure in this role. I really prefer to be behind the scenes, personally. Like, I. That's why I'm comfortable. I think that's. In a lot of ways, that's where Savannah has been comfortable too. That's what we probably haven't got.
Drea Nicole
Common.
April
Yeah, but she's more in front than she would like to be.

DJ Envy
What up y'?
Lex P (co-host)
All?
DJ Envy
It's DJ Envy. We're at the premiere of Fightland, executive produced by my guy, 50 Cent. Yeah, now listen, you know you've done a lot on it over here. America decided to go to UK for this one.
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
Yeah, this one is different.
DJ Envy
So break it down. For people that haven't seen it, it comes out the 31st. So tell us about Fightland.
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
Yeah, it's exciting. This one is a UK based show. I got Ottawa Bathurst to direct it. So the first two episodes he did really dope. And then I got like the other guys that I got to do throughout the season. It's like top notch, bro. So you're gonna see this one's gonna feel like it's a grade better than what I did like in Power.
DJ Envy
Really.
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
I promise that.
DJ Envy
Now, for people that haven't seen it yet, it comes out July 31st. Fightland. How would you describe fighting?
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
I say it's A family crime drama.
DJ Envy
Okay.
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
Right. And it has an intensity in action it that you would feel you received in an action film. And it does things that the other series don't do because we kind of jump timelines throughout the episodes and stuff like this. So you'll see things and go, oh, like things flashing back and things going to different, you know, backwards and forwards.
DJ Envy
I seen the first episode. I didn't see you in it. Are you in this season or are you at any season or. No, because usually we'll get a pop up of 50. A pop up here and there or you win Fightland at all?
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
No, I'm gonna have to work on my British accent.
DJ Envy
Have you tried?
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
No, no, I did. I would have to work on it to do it to get in this.
DJ Envy
What keeps you motivated to do it. You don't need the money. Is this like at this point? What is it for?
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
Nah, it's cool creatively, like. No, no project is great because of one person. It's a collective. You know what I mean? And what I get a chance to do is communicate what they feel to the network before it gets like. Then they start developing reputations of being difficult or doing things. But they're comfortable expressing how they feel to me, you know, now I'm at a stage where I can, you know, finance and license the project instead of giving it to the networks for them to own.
DJ Envy
Well, there you have it. Check it out. July 31st, Fightland on Stars.

April
I think because of our situation, but for me, I feel like I like being behind the scenes.
Lex P
Yeah.
April
So I think this is Harder.
Drea Nicole
Yeah.
Lex P
I think the. The hardness comes from too, is like a lot of times you'll say one thing and people will completely take it out of context. And it's like, bro, do y' all not have conversations with y' all friend? Are you joking? Are you saying something that's meant to be taken light hearted? I think that'd be the hardest thing for me. Cause like, sometimes Dre will make a face or I'll make a face and be like, oh, my God, they hate each other. They're about to break up.
Savannah
It's like, bruh, really, bruh.
Drea Nicole
We just having a bad day. My nigga pissed me off.
Lex P
You know what I'm saying? Or even where we might be my mama.
Drea Nicole
Yeah. Yeah.
Lex P
So I think that'll probably be something that y' all will have to deal with. That's gonna get on y' all nerves is like, they're gonna like, try to dissect Yalls friendship. For sure.
April
Like, I think for me, I don't read anything thing. Yeah, like, read the comments. I don't look at it. I don't. Don't tag me on it. Like, I mean, I see it.
Savannah
It don't. But it doesn't bother me because I know what's real.
Lex P
Yeah.
Savannah
People got a million and one things to say on social media, and they are going to say it like, okay, yeah, yeah.
Drea Nicole
Do you feel like you had to arrive to that point? Like, have you all. Because, I mean, obviously you've been in the spotlight for a long time. Did you have to arrive here or were you just always that way? Like, I don't care care about what they talking about.
Savannah
I definitely had to arrive.
Drea Nicole
Okay.
Savannah
There were some things that have been said that I would be like, oh, my God, like, what? Like, no, but I think I had to grow a thick skin for this. Like, and to be honest, it wasn't even. Like, I'm. I'm actually in the background. Like, why y' all throwing shots at me?
April
Just chilling.
Savannah
You know what I'm saying? So I had to build that skin up because otherwise I would have went crazy. But now I don't know if it went too far because I really be
Lex P
like, yeah, you're like, numb to it.
Drea Nicole
See, I'm gonna leave there too.
Lex P (co-host)
Oh, I'll be in the best moment all the time.
Drea Nicole
We read the comments all the time, and I think I'm more like, partial to, like, how both of y' all feel. I think we talked about this when we came on y' all show. I don't Know that I ever really, like, wanted to be famous. I always just wanted to, like, get a lot of money. And then I feel like, obviously, with what we do is taking on a whole life of its own, and it's become, like, this big thing. I hate that people be worried about what I be doing. Don't worry about me. Yeah.
April
Like, maybe they worry, but I don't pay it in a mine.
Lex P
Yeah.
Drea Nicole
But it's hard to not feel like
April
I'm also a little mysterious.
Lex P
That's both, y'.
Lex P (co-host)
All.
Drea Nicole
Yeah.
April
So, like, you're not really gonna find me.
Target Advertiser
Yeah.
April
Like, you really gotta look.
Lex P
Yeah.
April
Because people be like, oh, y' all never go nowhere. I'll be like, that's a lie. But it just can be very meticulous.
Drea Nicole
Yeah.
April
Like, calculated. Like, you're not gonna catch us. You gonna catch us on a booth. But it's in the dark, dark corner.
Lex P
Like.
Lex P (co-host)
Yeah.
Savannah
Somewhere very unexpected. Like, big fur hat.
Target Advertiser
Right.
Lex P
I think the only way they can tell, because, you know that signature blonde hair. That blonde. I can always tell it's Savannah. It's a certain blonde, though. Nobody else got that blonde. Everybody like, oh, I got that Savannah blonde. No, you don't, bitch.
Drea Nicole
That's a 613, right?
Lex P
It's not that Savannah blonde, babe.
Lex P (co-host)
613 is crazy. I'm telling you. She got that distinct.
Lex P
I was getting my hair done at the salon the other day, and I was like. I was like, I just. I love a jet black moment.
Savannah
Like, I.
Lex P
When you. Especially when you have, like, colored hair, you go back to jet black. I love it. And I was like, but there are certain people who can just pull off the colors. And we were like, yes. Nene Leakes, Mary J. Blige, and Savannah James are natural blondes. Beyonce, y' all are natural blondes. But it's all different tones of blondes. Like, I can tell, like, if it was, like, the back of Savannah's head or the back of Mary J. Blige head. I'm like, oh, that's Mary. That's Savannah. That's Nene. That's Beyonce. Like, I can just tell. You don't even gotta show the head. You can just show a little P. That's so funny.
Savannah
Cause I was always so scared of blonde. Really brought too much attention.
April
You.
Savannah
It's like black girl with blonde. Like, I was always so scared.
Lex P
But they toned it down.
Drea Nicole
Look, like, it's so good on. It looks amazing.
Lex P
It's like a signature.
April
I can't imagine you any other color.
Lex P (co-host)
Yeah.
Savannah
At this point, I don't think I could either, which is crazy.
Lex P
When was the last time you had, like, dark, like.
Savannah
Yeah, 2022.
Target Advertiser
Really?
Savannah
Yeah. I just. I went. Started wearing my blonde wigs in 22, and I never went back.
Drea Nicole
The hair BT it made me on point every time. So I do want to touch back on business a little bit because y' all just announced your new holding company. So let's talk about that and what the inspiration behind starting that was. And, you know, how did y' all come up with that?
April
I mean, I think really it came down to efficiency because we have two businesses together. Everybody's crazy and Let it break.
Drea Nicole
Can you talk about what let it break?
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
Yeah.
April
So everybody's crazy. Obviously. You guys know it's a podcast, but we say it's the humor of us.
Lex P
Yeah.
April
And let it Break is like, the heart, you know, I think Let It Break is a women's organization based in New York and la. It's membership and subscription model, and it's all about personal development and becoming the best version of yourself. And I think both me and Savannah have gone on, like, a healing journey to refine who we are, how we deal with things. And we felt like it was hard, and through that journey, we were like, we need to figure out how to give this to more people quicker.
Lex P
Yeah.
April
Like, I think a lot of times it is a pivotal point, whether it's death or, you know, a heartbreak or something that makes you feel kind of reevaluate where you are. And I think we were like, if we could give a cheat code to women, this would be great. So we kind of bottled up everything we researched, did amongst us, and we built this organization. There's about 400 women that are a part of it now. We're accepting additional members that'll be accepted in September. So we have those two businesses, and then it just efficiencies. We were sitting in a bunch of meetings. She has reframe. I have a crown and conquer. I mean, it's four businesses amongst the two of us, you know, Like, I'll be honest. When you hear comments like, we're sitting on the sofa.
Lex P
Chad, don't get me started, because I get to the comments, and I starts to argue, yes, I was sitting there fighting.
April
Yes. No one's sitting on nobody's sofa, right?
Drea Nicole
Yeah.
April
Like, never have. Never did. We take breaks.
Lex P
Right.
April
She takes breaks. But to black girl doing a product line based out of Korea, product in Korea. Going back and researching, stepping out of your comfort zone. I just think for me it's so interesting, the perception and then what it really is. So the holding company is big.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah, that's.
April
You know, I think most people start with a holding company at the top, and then they venture out and build other brands, businesses. We took three very established businesses. Crown and Conquer has been around 10 years. Like, it is a real business. Yeah. You know, and we've raised a lot of money. We don't even talk about it. Like, people don't even. And it's not from LeBron James.
Lex P
I know, right?
April
You know, as much as we love him, he's a huge supporter of everything we do. We didn't take money from him. We went out and did it on our own. We were uncomfortable and getting for it, asking for money for people to support us, but we did it. And so the holding company kind of brings the three businesses together for efficiency and just evolution. Like, you know what you know and what you don't. You better hire somebody to know it for you. And I think a lot of times I've gotten to where I've gotten on Crown and Conquer, and I'm good.
Lex P
Yeah.
April
There's just some things I should not be doing right at this point in my life, and that's hard to come to that realization as a founder. And then there's certain things Savannah's learning. I don't know nothing about no beauty. I work off of common sense. Like, somebody just started lime, putting it in, like, select locations, doing what she's doing. Like, I just think some people don't realize starting a podcast we don't know nothing about. No podcast.
Orderly Meds Advertiser
Yeah.
April
I produce events I had to set up. Getting a trap phone, setting up a camera, doing whatever. Like, let it break. Going on a personal healing journey and saying we want to bring it to other women. I think everything we've done has been rare, and I think for once, we really want to build something that has sustainability and legacy, and that's, like, what's important to us.
Lex P
Well, that's amazing. Congratulations on that. Because I feel like a lot of people in this space, too. They don't want to share their knowledge. Knowledge. I don't know why. That's the thing. So just like, oh, you learn something, and you keep it to yourself. So the fact that y' all have been, like, out here helping them because y' all did a trip or something. Yes, with the lady.
April
We did a Let it Break trip just on healing. We're doing retreats. Like, I think we are mysterious, but not intentionally. I think we're mysterious because if you know, when you're curious, you'll find us.
Drea Nicole
Yeah.
April
Like, but we're not in your face.
Lex P (co-host)
Yeah.
April
And we don't need to be.
Lex P
Yeah.
April
Because I think if you're going on a personal development journey, it's for you. You have to be ready. Like, I shouldn't be like, hey, come on, let's do this. And then you're like, oh, hell, like family trauma. Like, you know, like, that is an intense journey. Or if you're going and calling in and wanting to get advice, you have to seek to call us on. Everybody's crazy. People seek poor minds because they want to hear perspective, they want to laugh, they want hear humor.
Drea Nicole
Right.
April
Like, so you find your tribe and we're not forcing where we are. You'll find us.
Drea Nicole
I love that because being mysterious, that's okay. Like, I think sometimes people need to work to get to know more about you. You don't got to give everything.
April
And I think that that is important, but I feel like that is not the world we live in.
Drea Nicole
Yeah.
Lex P
Do y' all feel like y' all have to, like, prove that? Like, y' all feel like y' all are trying to prove y' all sales with Yalls business and being like, oh, we have other things going on and you're just like, you know what we're doing, what we do.
Savannah
I never felt the need to prove anything to anybody. Only person that I'm trying to make proud is myself. Yeah, my kids and my husband, they come. But at the end of the day, it's about you and how you feel about what you have going on. I never felt the need to prove anything to anyone.
April
I won't say that's a beautiful. But I will say y' all gonna respect the US.
Lex P
Okay. Now, I'm with that.
Drea Nicole
I am.
Lex P
I'm 1000% with that. Because I think just like I said, being a black woman already, they want to count us out. So it's like as soon as we say something or have an opinion about anything or start a business, it's just like, oh, how'd you get that? Oh, you must have did that. Or you only got this because of that. So I do think it's just kind of like, but we going to be here and you going to see us
April
and you're going to respect it.
Lex P
Yeah.
April
And. And I think that is something to say for that. Like, I think when we even talk about poor minds from 2018 to now, y' all out on a tour, like, I respect that.
Drea Nicole
Thank you.
Lex P
Thank you.
April
Like, I respect that there is something to say for that. Like, you know, even sometimes when we're looking at the people around us, like LJ or somebody like that. And when you come to sports and, like, there's. You may not like it, but you should respect it. And I think it's so much better bashing of, like, well, how and what's happening and, oh, you ain't do that, or, like, we on a trip and I'm in business and she in first. Oh, you ain't pay for the ticket. Just respect that. We going out the country to go see the world and you at home.
Lex P (co-host)
Yes.
Savannah
Hypothetically.
Drea Nicole
Oh, my gosh.
Lex P
They be at home.
Drea Nicole
You not about to be here.
Lex P
I got there, though.
Lex P (co-host)
Listen. I got this.
April
Listen. And I would have gotten there in economy. I would have still been there.
Lex P
Hey, I have been in 36e a few times.
Drea Nicole
I mean, sometimes you got a seat by that restroom.
Lex P (co-host)
Sometimes it happen.
Drea Nicole
But we got there, though.
Lex P (co-host)
Yes.
Lex P
Are we turning up or not?
Drea Nicole
Or not?
April
Thank you very much.
Drea Nicole
So I do want to ask you, Savannah, like, do you consider yourself to be a fashion icon? Cuz that's what the girls be saying.
Lex P (co-host)
Do they?
Drea Nicole
They do they. Do you be putting that on?
Savannah
Thank you. I. It's so funny, cuz I don't even like the shop, really. I like to get things that are nice and pretty and whatever, but, like, to go in a store and walk
Lex P
around and try to figure it out.
Savannah
No.
Drea Nicole
Okay.
Savannah
No. So I have a amazing stylist. Okay. Who helps me. Yes. It's very much a collaborative effort, but, yeah, I. I didn't.
Drea Nicole
You didn't know?
Savannah
I take that.
Drea Nicole
I'mma take that.
Savannah
Thank y'.
Lex P (co-host)
All.
Drea Nicole
The girls be saying you a fashion icon, and that's what I was going to ask you. You, like, is it more of a intentional thing? Because I feel like you'll be stepping out a little bit more these days than you used to, for sure. And you be putting that on. So I'm like, Is my girl like, okay, I'm about to show y' all what the I got in the club.
Lex P (co-host)
I'm killing you. Yeah.
Savannah
No, I mean, I think it's me showing up as I am. Like, I don't know if you, like, notice, but I, like, can step out and get dressed or whatever, but I am most comfortable in sweats and hoodie, like, so I think it's a balance for me.
April
And.
Savannah
But when I go outside, I want to represent myself in a certain type of way, so I'm happy to be recognized as a fashion Icon.
Drea Nicole
I take that, baby.
Lex P
The outfits and I think, too, with finding a stylist, though, like, it's like finding a man.
Drea Nicole
Yeah.
Lex P
You got to find somebody that really is your style.
April
That's my stake.
Lex P
Yeah, that gets it right.
Savannah
But he also pushes me out of my comfort zone, too. Some of the things and some of the ways that I've shown up, it's been like a fight. Just because I be like, no.
Drea Nicole
Yeah, you like.
Savannah
Then it works.
Drea Nicole
Yeah, you be looking good. I'm laughing because in my head, because I'm thinking about that video of you from New York. It was very much like, where the is the car you talk about?
Lex P (co-host)
She had the all black.
Lex P
Yes. Where was the car?
Drea Nicole
The car is supposed to be here.
Lex P
I did understand.
Savannah
I was trying to figure it the out.
Drea Nicole
My girl was ready to go, where's the car?
Savannah
We in New York City. Somebody's gonna snatch me.
Lex P (co-host)
Where's the car?
Drea Nicole
You gotta wash your back. You ain't just anybody.
Savannah
Got that shit on camera. The next day, I'm like, oh, my God. Oh, my God.
Lex P
I do want to ask Apryl a question, because I think me and Dre have this conversation a lot too, because, like, being like, a business owner and being so, like, I feel like you have the kind of personality like Dre. Like, you're very stern. And so at times. A lot of times that me and her both deal with that. Like, people be like, oh, my gosh, she's rude. She's not nice. But it's like, if a man does it, he's assertive. He's the boss, and he's this and that. So how do you deal with that? Like, being assertive and being a boss and handling the business but not trying to come off as, like, bitchy?
Sephora Advertiser
Yeah,
April
I come off bitchy.
Lex P
Oh, so you like. I don't give a damn.
April
I mean, I think that's just who I am.
Lex P
Yeah.
April
I mean, it's not that I'm intentionally. But I operate from a high level of common sense, so. So slow and me don't get along.
Lex P
Okay.
April
Like, slow, meaning as pace. Like, moving like that is very hard for me, and I am very resourceful, which are two really great traits, but I think really hard to work with, too. So because I'm moving constantly, and I'm like, okay, let's move this. Let's do that. And I just think that's how life works. So it's not that I intentionally mean to come off like that, but I don't really like chit chat.
Lex P
Yeah.
April
I Don't like chit chat and text mood sound like chit chat. I mean, even today, Savannah was like, damn, you ain't had to say it like that. And I was like, oh, my God, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to say it like that.
Lex P
Y' all put some sugar on it.
Lex P (co-host)
Yes, yes, yes, please.
Lex P
I had to tell Dre last night because she be like, cause friend, respectfully. I said, you not being respectful.
Lex P (co-host)
Stop saying that. She did.
Drea Nicole
She did tell me that yesterday, because I was like, respectfully, and I was telling her about herself, and she was like, it's not respectful,
Lex P (co-host)
bitch. I'm going to fuck you up. I'm going to tear you up. Stop.
Lex P
I said, please stop saying that, bro. It's not softening the blow.
April
I think there's, like, I love her respectfully enough. I feel like it depends on where I'm at. I've learned to curve.
Lex P
Okay.
April
My leadership.
Lex P
Okay.
April
So I've had an executive coach sometime if I'm not talking, you probably don't want that either. I think either which way I am is always going to be a problem.
Lex P
Ah.
April
So if I don't say nothing, it's like, oh, here we go. She definitely got something to say. So if I'm quiet and then if I'm saying something, it's like, oh, well, it's not really formulated in the way we want to receive it.
Drea Nicole
Yeah.
April
And I mean, I think that's the nice thing about owning your own, though.
Lex P (co-host)
Yeah.
Lex P
You ain't gotta answer to nobody.
Drea Nicole
They gotta answer to you.
April
Like, so, like, I don't mean to flex, but, like, I love it, but
Lex P (co-host)
I feel like, let's pop our, though. Like, pop your.
Lex P
Everybody deserves it if you. Y' all be working hard. And I think they always want us to be humble and shut up. No.
Lex P (co-host)
Yeah.
April
You know, so I feel like that is the power of having ownership.
Lex P
Yes.
April
Is that you can stand in whatever your truth is, and you can give it feedback, or you hire somebody else to give the feedback, because the way you give it is not right. I mean, I've learned a lot about myself and in a hard ways, too. You know what I mean? Like, being a business owner, it's not for the faint of heart who you did.
Drea Nicole
It's difficult.
April
And I think people is the hardest part to business.
Lex P
Yeah, sure.
April
It's not. What you're doing is the people. You know what I mean? Like, even when we. You guys came on our show and we were. And, you know, on the back end, you know, I got 99 jobs. So I'm back.
Lex P (co-host)
Hey, Shay.
April
And it's just nice. It was nice. It was nice to work with somebody who gets it, who understands, who is timely, who is resourceful.
Lex P
You was trying to steal.
Lex P (co-host)
You need to stop emailing Shay. You don't email Shay no more. April, girl that I know, she. I was like, she going to send her a budget and tell her, I'mma pay you this, and I can't match it.
April

DJ Envy
What up, y'?
Lex P (co-host)
All?
DJ Envy
It's DJ Envy. We're at the premiere of Fightland, executive produced by my guy, 50 Cent. Yeah, now listen, you know you've done a lot on it over here in America. Decided to go to UK for this one.
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
Yeah, this one is different, so break
DJ Envy
it down for people that you haven't seen. It comes out the 31st. So tell us about Fightland.
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
It's exciting. This one is a UK based show. I got Ottawa Bathurst to direct it. So the first two episodes he did really dope. And then I got like the other guys that I got to do throughout the season. It's like top notch, bro. So you're going to see this one is going to feel like it's a grade better than what I did, like in Power.
DJ Envy
Really?
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
I promise that.
DJ Envy
Now for people that haven't seen it yet, it comes out July 31st. Fightland Park. How would you describe fighting?
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
I'd say it's a family crime drama.
DJ Envy
Okay.
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
Right. And it has an intensity in action that you would, you would, you would feel you received in the action film. And it does things that the other series don't do because we kind of jump Timelines throughout the episodes and stuff like this. So you'll see things and go, oh, like things flashing back and things going to different, you know, backwards and forwards.
DJ Envy
I seen the first episode. I didn't see you in it. Are you in this season or are you at any season or. No, because usually we'll get a pop up, a 50, a pop up here and there. Are you in Fightland at all?
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
No. I'm gonna have to work on my British accent.
DJ Envy
Have you tried?
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
No, no, I did. Well, I would have to work on it to do it, to get in this.
DJ Envy
What keeps you motivated to do it? You don't need the money. Is this, like, at this point? What is it for?
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
Nah, it's cool. Creatively. Like, no project is great because of one person. It's a collective. You know what I mean? And what I get a chance to do is communicate what they feel to the network before it gets like. They start developing reputations and being difficult or doing things, but they're comfortable expressing how they feel to me, you know, Now I'm at a stage where I can, you know, finance and license the project instead of giving it to the networks for them to.
DJ Envy
Well, there you have it. Check it out. July 31st, Fightland on Stars.

Lex P
Yes. Like.
April
But, like, if I would like to know, as your friend, if I hurt your feelings, you. You should tell me.

Target Advertiser

I would, like, still want to talk about it right now.
Savannah
I just.
April
I wanna. I want to be accommodating. Cause I love you.
Lex P
Yes.
Drea Nicole
And I get that.
Lex P
And that's why I'm saying I'm not upset or mad when, like, we want. Cause we need to have conversations. Yeah, but it's like, sometimes I gotta be in the mind frame to have a conversation, too. Dre don't give a fuck. We'll be in the club twerking.
Lex P (co-host)
Friend, I ain't gonna Lie. Respectfully, girl, if you don't hush and
Lex P
take this shot, because, bitch, I can't.
Drea Nicole
We gonna take the shot anyway.
Lex P
But like I was saying earlier, that's what she loved. Like, I was Sam, that is crazy.
Drea Nicole
That's literally the same. We are. And you know what else is crazy? Lex. Mom had our birthday, too.
Lex P
April 22. Yes. I, I, I'm used to this.
Drea Nicole
Yeah.
Lex P
In a house full of Tauruses. It was just me, my Leo self.
Target Advertiser
Oh, my God.
Drea Nicole
So, y', all, this has been really, really fun. We have not gotten into the first topic.
Lex P (co-host)
We did it again.
Lex P
That we not going to hold y' all for four hours. I promise. We.
Drea Nicole
We going to make the top. We going make the topic quick.
April
Let's do this.
Drea Nicole
So topic number one. Do y' all think men using profanity around women is disrespectful? So it was this creator. She said that her father taught her that if a man uses aggressive profanity around you constantly or talks to you in the same way he would his friends, he doesn't have any respect for you.
Savannah
So.
Drea Nicole
So what do y' all think about that?
Savannah
I don't have the cleanest mouth.
Drea Nicole
Right. Me either.
Lex P
I'm like.
Savannah
I mean, I think it's a fine line based on what you saying and how the delivery is, but I like, I'mma shoot you a couple. I love the negative purse. I'm like, what the is that?
Lex P (co-host)
Yes. Like, you ain't calling me no be.
April
I feel like that. And as long as you're not referring to women in a certain way, I
Savannah
was just about to say, I. I don't want to hear it.
April
Yeah. I remember one time I heard this guy be like, yeah, cuz them over there.
Lex P
And I was like, oh, I don't like that.
April
Yeah. Like, I think that is. But I do think men put a class system on women.
Drea Nicole
Yeah.
April
Like, so you could be out. Like, guys will be out with us. Or, like, people, like, friends that we're friends with.
Lex P
Yeah.
April
And then they'd be like, yeah, but y' all not like them.
Drea Nicole
And I don't like that, because why are you trying to separate?
April
Yeah, but I think that happens a lot.
Lex P
It definitely. I mean, we've talked about this before, because I was like, when the show, like, first started, we were open about, like, our dating life and things and going on. People was like, oh, them the hoes.
Lex P (co-host)
But was like, we're not the hoes.
Lex P
We just are talking about our dating lives. You know what I'm saying? But now it's like that we've grown and we. We matured and. Oh, we have the spaces that we're in. They're like, oh, not y'.
Lex P (co-host)
All.
Lex P
Not y'. All. But it's like we're all women dating, figuring out life and having fun.
April
So I do think how you carry yourself is a reflection of how people see you.
Drea Nicole
I agree. Cause I don't feel like nobody ever looked at me like I was a hoe.
Lex P
No, I'm. No, but they did, though. Cause we was on them T shirts with them asses out. We was trying to sell them shirts.
Lex P (co-host)
I want a shirt.
Drea Nicole
What it was giving.
Lex P (co-host)
It's a vintage, like, rap tea.
Lex P
Like, it was supposed to be like, rap tea.
April
So what y' all have on?
Savannah
Nothing.
Lex P (co-host)
I don't even care.
Lex P
Even Cisco was blushing.
Lex P (co-host)
But we.
Drea Nicole
Yes, but what I was gonna say.
April
Would y' all do that now?
Drea Nicole
No. So we classy babes.
April
So that's what I mean. I feel like if you put a certain energy out there, that's why I am particular about what I wear.
Lex P
Okay.
Drea Nicole
And that's fair. Like. But see, I think it's a difference between. Like, you said. Okay. People do. Right? Like, did. Look at us there.
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
Yeah.
Orderly Meds Advertiser
Yeah.
Drea Nicole
I think people who don't know me.
Lex P (co-host)
Yeah.
Drea Nicole
People who know me in real life, like, they know what the. Like.
Lex P
Yeah.
Drea Nicole
Of course, it's not giving that.
April
But I think people judge on what they say.
Drea Nicole
They do. They do.
April
And I feel like young women. Not all, but some young women really be putting the body on the. Yeah.
Lex P
On the forefront.
Charlamagne Tha God
They do.
April
Like, sometimes I be out and be like, whoa.
Lex P
Yeah.
April
We went to this club, and this. These. These women had on skims, like, pajamas, like, lingerie. I said, we just was at the skim store. We literally just saw it.
Lex P
She left from the dressing room, went to the club.
Lex P (co-host)
Yes.
April
I just was like, wow. It's just really. No standard. I feel like, yeah. Getting dressed. We pride ourselves on doing that. And it can be sensual, and it can look a certain type of way. But some of the things be calling, like, I'm fucking something.
Savannah
My mom always said when was leave something to the imagination.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah.
Lex P
So, yes, it's certain.
Drea Nicole
That should only be for your. For your men to see. I think we've realized that as we've gotten older.
Lex P (co-host)
T shirts. You know what? Yeah.
Lex P
You got to show them the T
Drea Nicole
shirt on camera so they can see the reaction.
Lex P
We need their reaction to that. Because I do feel like I'm kind of a little bit on the opposite end, though, because I feel like sometimes as a curvier woman, like, no matter what I. People are always gonna like, say what they have to say about me. Now do I cover up more so now because what I'm comfortable in, you know, like I'm about to be 37, like I don't want to dress like a 21, 22 year old Lex. You know what I mean? So for me, I feel like no matter what I have going, people are gonna assume and say what they want about me. So it's not. Cause I'm so used to people categorizing me. So I feel like no matter what I have on, they gonna say they.
April
So let me ask you this. Don't say that if you got a certain outfit on. This is for all of us, okay? If you have a certain outfit on and it's scandalous, how can you be offended that it gets you certain type of disrespectful attention?
Lex P
But you know what's crazy?
April
I don't get.
Lex P
I'm not a person that gets offended though. So for me, that's why I'm saying I've never cared about how people categorize me because I learned that at a young age. I remember when I'm 15, I was top heavy. We all matching outfits, me and all my friends, matching outfits. I get sent to the office and they're like, well, you got the this on. Your shirt is too tight. We all got tight shirts on. I just got titties. Yeah, I got a little ass, you know, so I'm used to being categorized by that. So me changing my style wasn't necessarily to fit in a particular class. It was more so like girl wear what makes you comfortable. If I want to wear my ass out tonight, I just might.
Lex P (co-host)
I might be feeling a little ass.
April
But if a guy addresses you in a certain type of way because your body is out, like, oh, what's up?
Drea Nicole
You fucking.
Lex P
He gonna do that anyway, though.
Savannah
Nobody saying that.
Lex P (co-host)
They do be saying that.
April
Yes, they do.
Lex P (co-host)
You ain't been outside my outside, Savannah. You be ducked off in the booth. I be in the middle of the dance flow. They are going for me.
April
What's up?
Savannah
You fucking.
Drea Nicole
Although we are business women now, I think y' all are forgetting, like, we used to work in the club. We used to be bartenders and waitress at the strip club.
Lex P
Yes.
Drea Nicole
So like, first of all, the outfit itself is like skin silly clad. Like, you don't. Your ass is out. You got on some fishnet leggings, you got on like a little thong Bodysuit.
April
Oh, I would be stressed.
Lex P (co-host)
Yeah.
Drea Nicole
So me automatically, I was having fun.
April
Yeah.
Drea Nicole
I mean, it was fun.
Lex P
In another life.
April
In another life, it was fun.
Lex P (co-host)
In other life,
April
I would have been in that.
Lex P (co-host)
That, like, hide in the corner.
Drea Nicole
It was a good.
Lex P (co-host)
I'mma count the cash. Y' all ain't gonna have me out
April
there with no th. I'mma fight the.
Lex P
I'mma get the security.
April
I'mma count the cash. No, I can't shake for no tips.
Lex P (co-host)
No.
April
You tapping my ass.
Drea Nicole
It's on my head.
April
No, no, no.
Drea Nicole
We used to be thonged up, April.
Lex P
We was thong.
Drea Nicole
We was going thong for thong.
Lex P (co-host)
Hell yeah. Oh, my God. It was a good time, though.
April
What would have been doing when you're
Lex P (co-host)
in Savannah would have been making the
Lex P
drinks with me for sure.
Lex P (co-host)
What we got? What we got?
April
I was like, okay, let me collect the tip.
Lex P (co-host)
Yeah, she the money counter. She got her tuxedo on the credit cards. But you know what's crazy?
Drea Nicole
Look, when you in those spaces, I think men look at you all the same. So, like, they think we own what the strippers own, even though we not dance.
April
Yeah, I can see. But if I'm a nigga, I would think that too.
Drea Nicole
You trying to fuck or whatever.
Lex P (co-host)
I be like, huh?
Drea Nicole
But this is.
Lex P
This is how men are. Us four could be behind the bar, right? And you're say, you the money counter. Dre in the thong. Savannah in the thong. I'm in the thong. It's gonna be one horny ass nigga. Be like, I want her in the tuxedo.
Drea Nicole
Yeah.
Lex P (co-host)
What's under there? I need to see. I need to see. So it don't matter. Are you fucking taking bow tie off?
Lex P
I know you are free. Cause you got the kind of bees on.
Lex P (co-host)
I'm telling you. So that's my point.
Lex P
They gonna do it anyway. And that's. So that's why I said I've always kind of, like, dressed for myself or whatever I'm feeling in the moment. You know what I'm saying? Because I don't care if I am class. I don't really want men talking to me anyway. I'm a person. Like, I have a very low tolerance for men a lot of the time. I really do. But I think it's because, again, I worked in the strip club for so long, so it was like a lot of the conversations of them, like, venting. I'm like, you're really stupid. You'll meet the most richest men with a fire business, and they're so smart. But when it comes to just common communication, regular conversations. It's like, oh my God, they stupid.
Drea Nicole
It's.
Lex P
And my tolerance now as a 36 year old woman is at zero. So it's like I don't even care what you say to me. You know how many comments we get? It'll be a billion comments of positivity. Then it'll be like one just say something stupid. I'm like, ugh, you're blocked. Like so now because so it don't even matter. Like I said, we were looking classy and beautiful at the BET Awards yesterday and it's still comments of men just being disrespectful and weird. So that is so crazy.
Lex P (co-host)
It don't matter. Girl.
Lex P
For me. So the way I carry myself is more so if I do dress for people's opinions, it's more so because I have young girls looking at poor minds and watching. I'm like, okay, this is possible. You can still be sexy, classy. And I want to carry myself different, you know, because men gonna do what men do.
April
Well, I definitely think for young girls is important too because I think a lot of people have. I was very surprised. A few years ago I did an event at Clark University and like I felt like it must have been 70% of the females there had on wigs.
Drea Nicole
Okay.
April
And I was like, that is
Drea Nicole
what's wrong with wig.
April
I think it's fine. But like they're so young. Like braids your natural hair. A glue in a sew in wigs is personally maybe you could learn how
Lex P
to put it on.
April
But wigs is for somebody that has the resources.
Lex P
Okay.
April
Like this.
Lex P
Oh.
April
Like it was like I was like
Savannah
girls, I think it's the times they just following the times.
April
Like why can't they wear the moment?
Savannah
They can but they. The trend that they decided to follow was to wear wigs.
Lex P
What's the wigs?
Drea Nicole
Oh, I lowkey feel like us as a generation, we a little jl. We gotta like go ahead and admit it. We a little jealous because we because we was in them trenches with our.
Lex P (co-host)
Besides we comb each other.
Lex P
We couldn't pop it on. And also in our generation too, if you wore a wig, you was an auntie. Yes, your auntie wore wigs. So I think we connect wigs to being like an older thing. But like that's what the girls do. They get their wigs installed and they be doing it every three, four days. Yes, they gonna get that wig done.
Drea Nicole
We wasn't doing that. We had that hump. I think my Pony.
April
My issue was the quality. Yes, My issue was the quality.
Lex P
Okay.
April
Like, it was just. It was looking auntie.
Lex P (co-host)
Yeah.
April
Because it's like, it's dorm room wigs.
Lex P (co-host)
Yeah.
Drea Nicole
Okay.
Lex P (co-host)
So you know what I mean? Somebody in the dorm room charging y' all $50. Yeah.
Lex P
Yeah.
April
And this is all wrong.
Lex P
And I will say some of the styles now.
April
I was like, these dorm room wigs, I was.
Lex P
You said, I can't do it.
April
I was upset. I was like, guys, we should do a tutorial. Like, I would teach them.
Lex P (co-host)
And I don't even know nothing about a wig.
Lex P
I love a good tutorial, but I do feel like the trends now, like, there wasn't really, like, makeup trends and hair trends when I was younger, but now the trends is like, so somebody like a Savannah or a Drea or April, they're doing their makeup like this. But y' all are in yalls 30s. So now a 20 year old is doing her makeup. Like, women in our 30s. So sometimes a trend ages them.
Lex P (co-host)
Yeah.
Lex P
You know what I'm saying? So. Because everybody's kind of doing the same
April
looks like we are not doing all of that. Like, the four of us are not doing full beat every day. Like, you see us in our natural state.
Lex P
Yes.
April
I was at Clark, like, oh, y' all doing full beat, full wig, full everything. This is giving.
Lex P
They trying to get them one.
April
Listen, I was just so surprised.
Savannah
A bunch of girls all day, they said, where are the boys?
Lex P (co-host)
Yeah.
Drea Nicole
The girls be pulling up to Camp Memphis with Chanel bags. And when I was in college, we was wearing Sperries.
Lex P (co-host)
Yes.
Lex P
Oh, I have me some spares.
Drea Nicole
I love me some Sperries. I had them holes in every color.
Lex P
You don't remember Sperry now? You know she don't know what a damn Sperry is.
Savannah
What's a Sperry?
Lex P
It's like, they look like boat shoes. They're really boat shoes.
Savannah
I know what you talk about.
April
I know. I had the Ralph Lauren ones. We was up easy. You know, we was wearing polo sweatsu and new bag balance.
Drea Nicole
No, we was wearing Sperries at my school. But, you know, I'm Southern.
Lex P (co-host)
Oh, my God.
Drea Nicole
From the South.
Lex P
We would have Sperries.
April
All sweatsuits and air force ones.
Lex P
Yeah, yeah. We what we want.
Drea Nicole
They say we a little soft. We definitely are in the South. Not us specifically, but like Southern women fairies.
April
With what?
Drea Nicole
Jeans.
Lex P
I would wear mine with like jeans with a little jeans.
Drea Nicole
And I used to be. Cuz y' all remember the time in the club. Not y' all was in the club. Business casual. I'm not about to play with y'.
Lex P
All. Some classic y' all used to have. I'm a classic man. I loved it.
Drea Nicole

Kitten heels.

Yes, but I think a kitten during the day is cute.
Sephora Advertiser
I agree.
Lex P
I feel like, why are you in platforms at brunch? You doing too much. And I'm a platform girly. Like, I have all the platforms, but I feel like a kitten heel is a daytime heel. But I also saw a video that said the reason the girls are wearing kitten heels at night is because men are not being chivalrous at the club. So we gotta be prepared to stand up for a few hours.
Savannah
That's crazy.
Lex P
You know? So how do y' all feel about a kitten heel?

DJ Envy
What up, y'?
Lex P (co-host)
All?
DJ Envy
It's DJ Envy. We're at the premiere of Fightland, executive produced by my guy, 50 Cent. Yeah, now listen, you know you've done a lot on it over here in America. Decided to go to UK for this one.
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
Yeah, this one is different.
DJ Envy
So break it down for people that you haven't seen. It comes out the 31st. So tell us about Fightland.
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
It's exciting. This one is a UK based show. I got Ottawa Bathurst to direct it. So the first two episodes he did really dope. And then I got like the other guys that I got to do throughout the season. It's like, top notch, bro. So you're going to see this one's going to feel like it's a grade better than what I did, like in Power.
DJ Envy
Really.
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
I promise that.
DJ Envy
Now, for people that haven't seen it yet, it comes out July 31st. Fight Lamp. How would you describe fighting?
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
I'd say it's a family crime drama. Okay, Right. And it has an intensity in action that you would, you would, you would feel you received in the action film. And it does things that the other series don't do because we kind of jump timelines throughout the episodes and stuff like this. So you'll see things and go, oh, like things flashing back and things going to different, you know, backwards and forwards.
DJ Envy
I seen the first episode, I didn't see you in it. Are you in this season or are you at any season or. No, because usually we'll get a pop up, a 50, a pop up here and there. Are you in Fightland at all?
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
No, I might have to work on my British accent.
DJ Envy
Have you tried?
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
No, no, I did. I would have to work on it to do it, to get in this.
DJ Envy
What keeps you motivated to do it? You don't need the money. Is this like at this point? What is it for?
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
Nah, it's cool. Creatively, like, no project is great because of one person. It's a collective, you know what I mean? And what I get a chance to do is communicate what they feel to the network before it gets like they start developing reputations and being difficult or doing things, but they're comfortable expressing how they feel to me, you know, now I'm at a stage where I can, you know, finance and license the project instead of giving it to the networks for them.
DJ Envy
Well, there you have it. Check it out. July 31st, Fightland on Stars.

Drea Nicole

Lex P (co-host)

Drea Nicole
You said he's a big lotto.
Lex P (co-host)
Yes.
Lex P
Okay.
Lex P (co-host)
All right.
Lex P
He is a big lotto.
April
Music.
Lex P
He's mixed. Yeah.
April
I never heard his music.
Drea Nicole
So you need to listen to these songs. It's called what the Going?
Lex P
Yeah.
Lex P (co-host)
Oh, it's not that bad, April.
April
But the funny thing is I feel
Drea Nicole
like you gonna get in the car and then you gonna miss and be like, I like this.
Lex P
Savannah really gonna like it.
Drea Nicole
I think she gonna like it.
Lex P
Yeah, she gonna like it.
Drea Nicole
So it's called what the fuck going? Featuring 21 Savage. And I feel like it's giving, like, old Atlanta vibes. It is like 2002 when I wasn't able to be outside.
Lex P
Yeah, it sounds like a beat that Shoddy Low would have been on. Yeah, that's what it gives.
Target Advertiser
Yes.
Drea Nicole
And I feel like Jeezy, like, but I feel like he should have had 21 savage. Verse was really, really good. Like, he ate. But I do think too, if he would have had like a Jeezy or a Ti or a Gucci mane, somebody like that on the.
Lex P
Well, T let us know he's busy. He's been letting everybody know he is busy, so. But Jeezy would have been a good one.
Drea Nicole
But that's my song. I. Y', all. I love that song. It's so.
Lex P (co-host)
Okay.
April
I'm going to listen to it.
Drea Nicole
Y' all should check what y' all been j been listening to.
Savannah
I have a playlist that I listen to over and over. It's kind of bad. I don't have to find, like, super new music, but if I had to pick something that I've been listening to that is more recent. Front to back Octane by Don Toliver.
Lex P
Oh, my God.
Savannah
And I like that vibe. It's like, it's a Turn up. But it's still, like, chill.
Lex P (co-host)
Yes.
Savannah
So I like that. That's my. Like, go to
Lex P
that album is so good. I said, if he doesn't win a Grammy for that album, I know something is up.
Lex P (co-host)
Yeah.
Lex P
It's such a good album.
Drea Nicole
It's really good. We be really listening to it all the time. Time, too.
Savannah
The whole thing.
April
So I did, like, recently, I've been listening to Jesse Reyes.
Lex P (co-host)
Oh, I like her.
Lex P
And she's back.
Lex P (co-host)
I think she just dropped the album. Right.
April
Really good.
Lex P
Okay, I'm gonna listen to it.
April
It was very interesting about dating and relationships and, like, all the things.
Lex P (co-host)
Things.
Lex P
Yeah. I like it when you could tell an artist, like, they went and they lived life, and they can talk about it on their album.
April
I liked Lotto's new album.
Lex P (co-host)
I did.
Drea Nicole
I was really good. Yeah.
Lex P
Because she was letting y' all know, like, this baby ain't gonna stop nothing.
Drea Nicole
I'm still popping.
April
I liked it.
Drea Nicole
I thought it was good.
April
I don't. Oh, I think some of the female rap is a little harsh.
Lex P
So we know that you clutches them pearls, baby, you need to keep it. You need to listen to the clean version. I don't want to see no excuse Me explicit on your playlist.
Drea Nicole
April, you need to go listen to Tamela Mania.
Sephora Advertiser
Yeah.
Lex P (co-host)
Yeah.
April
That is church music. But, yeah. So I thought Lotto was good.
Lex P (co-host)
Okay.
Drea Nicole
Shout out to y'.
Lex P (co-host)
All.
April
And I just like the way she presented her look and feel. So cute being a mom. Like, it just is. It was sweet.
Lex P
It's a vibe. Shout out to you, Lotto.
Drea Nicole
So speaking of being a mom, this is, like, off topic, but I want. Eventually, I do want to have a kid, so I feel. I wanted to ask y', all, how do y' all balance, like, motherhood and then just still being women and, like, living your life, but setting a good example for your children but not letting it define you at the same time and still, like, being like, okay, mama gotta have a lifestyle, too.
Savannah
Yeah. I had to learn that.
Lex P
Yeah.
Savannah
I put all my energy into my kids when I first. I had my first when I was 18, and I had my second when I was 20. So I was just being a mom. Like, that's all I. That's just. That's all I thought I could do at that time. And then I just, you know, get. You get to a point where you like, okay, I got this down pack. The kids are good. I have a tribe, so it's not like I'm by myself. I got people helping me.
Drea Nicole
So now what Do I do want to?
Lex P
Yeah.
Savannah
So I decided to start traveling, like getting away a little bit. I had a little bit of mom guilt, but you know, I'm like, I have to do this. I have to do this for me. When I had that girl, I'm like, oof, I gotta show up different. Like this is not, this is not it. Especially when she was like watching me. I knew she was watching me and like telling me that she was watching me. I'm like, oh, yeah, I got to, I got to do something different.
Lex P (co-host)
Yeah.
Savannah
So I think that it takes a little bit of time because. Because you want to give yourself a minute to get your bearings. Because it's a lot like having a baby is a lot. It's a lot on your body, it's a lot on your mental. And you gotta like give yourself a beat, but be able to pour into yourself so that you can pour into your baby. Like it's just as important. So I think you just got to give yourself some time.
Drea Nicole
Okay. So it just come with time.
Savannah
It comes with time, but you have to be intentional with the time because you can definitely like dive all the way in and not, not be able to come up for air.
Lex P
Yeah. Okay.
Savannah
That's what I think.
April
I think being a mom is hard, but I love it. But I think it's the balance of both. I think there is. What I've learned in being a mom is there's all kinds of moms.
Lex P
Yeah.
April
And you just have to like be okay with that. Cuz if you start judging yourself against other moms, it becomes a dynamic you can never get out of. I think the more resources, I. E. Money and access you.

DJ Envy
What up y', all? It's DEJ Envy. We're at the premiere of Fightland, executive produced by my guy, 50 Cent. Yeah, now listen, you know you've done a lot on it over here in America. Decided to go to UK for this one.
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
Yeah, this one is different.
DJ Envy
So break it down for people that I haven't seen. It comes out the 31st. So tell us about Fightland.
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
Yeah, it's exciting. This one is a UK based show. I got Ottawa Bathurst to direct it. So the first two episodes he did really dope and then I got like the other guys that I got to do throughout the season. It's like top notch, bro. So you're going to see this one is going to feel like it's a grade better than what I did like in Power.
DJ Envy
Really.
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
I promise that.
DJ Envy
Now for people that haven't seen it yet, it comes out July 31st. Fightland. How would you describe fighting?
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
I'd say it's a family crime drama.
DJ Envy
Okay.
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
Right. And it has an intensity in action that you would, you would, you would feel you received in the action film. And it does things that the other series don't do because we kind of jump timelines throughout the episodes and stuff like this. So you'll see things and go, oh, like things flashing back and things going to different, you know, backwards and forward always.
DJ Envy
I seen the first episode. I didn't see you in it. Are you in this season or are you at any season or. No, cuz usually we'll get a pop up a 50, a pop up here and there. Are you in Fightland at all?
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
No, I might have to work on my British accent.
DJ Envy
Have you tried?
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
No, no, I did. I, I would have to work on it to do it, to get in
DJ Envy
this a little bit. What keeps you motivated to do it? You don't need the money. Is this like at this point, what
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson
is it for N. It's cool creatively like, no, no project is great because of one person. It's a collective, you know, I mean, and what I get a chance to do is communicate what they feel to the network before it gets like. Then they start developing reputations of being difficult or doing things, but they're comfortable expressing how they feel to me, you know, now I'm at a stage where I can, you know, finance and license the project instead of giving it to the networks for the.
DJ Envy
Well, there you have it. Check it out. July 31st. Fightland on Stars.

April
The different shit gets, you know, the. The private schools, the nannies this, the that, even the things that you talk about, no one was talking about with me in my 30s about freezing my eggs.
Drea Nicole
Like.
April
Or just like, how. How womanhood has evolved into a place that we have different types of choices, you know, like being at school and somebody is a by choice mom. That means that you're doing it on your own, you know, like, we just didn't have that coming up. So I just feel like it's been very insightful. I stay in my lane. I do what works for me, and what works for me is unique to me.
Sephora Advertiser
Yes.
April
So, like, I had a baby nurse as soon as I came home. I never wanted to stay at home. Like, it just wasn't my vibe. And we talk about it a lot on our show, like, the difference and what that looks like. But I also think that a child is very much so a reflection of you. And that is why I am sensitive about how I dress.
Lex P
Okay.
April
I have to two boys, like, and I just think, I never want them to be like, I saw your mom out. Like, you know what I mean? Like, one time recently, I was somewhere with some friends and Bronnie walked in. I was like, y', all, I got to go.
Lex P
I know that's right.
April
He didn't see me. He didn't see me. But it's just like, let them have their space. Let them have their moment. We are in an interesting phase of, like, we can hang together. You know what I mean? Or we could also.
Sephora Advertiser
We. We.
April
We've done it already. You know what I mean? And I just also think I'm a reflection of my kids. How I carry myself, how I move. And I think Savannah has been the epitome of that. Like, in a lot of ways that people have their misconceptions on stay at home mom and the judgment in it, but then people be having kids that can't get it together.
Lex P
Yeah.
Drea Nicole
Right.
April
And it comes from how you show up as a parent. You do have responsibility in that. You know what I mean? So I think for me, it is a little bit more serious because I feel like my youngest one watches my every move.
Target Advertiser
Yes.
April
He'd be like, where are you going?
Lex P
Yeah.
April
Like, if I'm in a miniskirt or like, yeah. So I think it is. You are a reflection of, like, what you breed and what you make. And I think when you have a daughter is, I think, even more pressure. Like, I would never want Zori to see me and be like, I saw Aunt April out and this was crazy. Like, you know what I mean? She's in a thong. I'd be like, oh, my God, you saw that? Like, you know, So I think there is something to say for, like, the responsibility that comes with parenthood that I feel like, you know, mom, you can still be a mom, but it goes to show you not everybody is really ready.
Lex P (co-host)
Yeah.
April
And your life is supposed to change a little bit. Like some people, like, oh, I'm doing the same.
Savannah
Same.
April
I'm like, how? Yeah, how you're responsible for somebody. Like, how are you doing the same? And even with me being the only, like, living parent and I arrange my life so that my kids are consistently supported, whether it's my parents, my nanny. However I build my life, my life has changed. And I think sometimes people don't understand that responsibility when it comes to kids.
Lex P
Yeah.
April
And take it a little bit like, oh, it's not that big of a deal. I'm just keep doing. And I'm be outside and I'm like, what's happening?
Lex P
Yeah. And it's crazy that you said that because you were just like. Because of course we were talking about the. The dress. Kids didn't even cross my mind because I don't have any. So you saying that you're like, okay. And I'm like, damn, you do have two boys. So it's just like, I even think about how I show up around my nephews.
Target Advertiser
Yes.
Lex P
Oh, I'm one piece swimsuit yeah.
April
Covering up 100.
Lex P
So, yes, I do see your point of view.
Drea Nicole
You have boys.
April
I have a 23 year old, a 16 year old. Like, they're friends looking at me in a certain type of way. Like, I think that there is something to say for that. There is a level of responsibility that comes with parenthood, and not just on the mother.
Lex P
Yeah.
April
It is on both ends. And how you show up shapes the child you have. And when you. When people go to do healing work, you start realizing how you were raised and what has made you the way you are comes from how you were raised.
Drea Nicole
Yeah.
April
Like, so if you have an opportunity to fix that for your younger self, then you should.
Drea Nicole
Right?
Lex P
Yeah, that's true.
DJ Envy
What?
Lex P
You ate that up. I was on you.
Lex P (co-host)
But now I see. I see your ways.
Drea Nicole
She thought she was being jud.
Lex P (co-host)
I said she too. Strictly think for me, Me and Savannah
Lex P
going to have to leave y' all
Lex P (co-host)
that thr picture up. Like, what the hell y' all thinking? The mom jumped out.
April
I'mma. I'mma scrub the Internet before y' all have kids. Please help us scrub the Internet.
Lex P (co-host)
We need turn in your shirts.
April
We going to give y' all a $5 gift car.
Drea Nicole
You got to, baby. We used to be going th for th. Like, we was really cutting up.
April
I don't know what we just used
Drea Nicole
to be doing anything. We always say that about ourselves.
Target Advertiser
Ourselves.
Drea Nicole
Like when we were younger, we really just used to be doing. But I think the evolution is beautiful.
April
I think I did a lot of things, too. I just was mysterious.
Lex P
You wasn't on the Internet like we was. It's there forever. So it's like.
April
But I feel like that's the difference in age. We didn't have that. Like, it wasn't like you could capture everything in real time. I think that's the thing for y'.
Lex P (co-host)
All.
Drea Nicole
First of all, y' all not that much older than us.
April
Girl, I got something on you.
Lex P
It ain't like.
Drea Nicole
It's not like a big.
Lex P
A big.
April
But we can't catch no uber from a BlackBerry.
Drea Nicole
But see, but see the time when we didn't have. I had a BlackBerry pearl.
Lex P
But I will say technology, when we were coming up, like, advanced so quickly.
DJ Envy
Yes.
Lex P
So a five year difference between two people is a totally different life.
April
And I think everything you do is now captured.
Lex P
Yes.
April
And that's what young folks don't realize is, like, they gonna capture it and they gonna drag you in the hole.
Savannah
You gotta go to your mama's house in the Nike shoe box.
Lex P (co-host)
Yes.
Lex P
The physical pictures.
April
The other day's mom was doing something. She was going through all these pictures of man. Like, oh, my God, look at these
Savannah
pictures of me sending me all kinds of crazy pictures.
Lex P (co-host)
For real.
Lex P
That is funny.
Drea Nicole
But, like, from a view from back in the day.
Savannah
Yeah, but even teenagers like real photos, real life photos.
April
You can't even scan it.
Drea Nicole
The Polaroid.
Lex P
Not the Polaroids. I love a little Polaroid. Okay, well, let everybody know where they can find yalls podcast, other things that y' all got coming up and all that good stuff.
April
So we have this every single time, and we're never prepared. So we think you can go to.
Lex P (co-host)

April
