The thoughts, views and opinions shared on the Flow show. No filter. Are for educational and entertainment purposes only. I am not a professional. I am just good. Happy, happy, happy Friday. Sheesh. We made it to another one, y'all. All my hard working people out there listening to me, watching me, listening on Apple and Spotify and all the other apps, watching me here on YouTube live where we get together every Monday through Friday at 7:30am it's the breakfast Crew. Kobe, Won, Kenobi, Amy, we got Apaka. I can't say your name, but I see we got a new person in the, in the, in the chat. Say hello to everybody. Everybody get acquainted. Got a great show for you today. Feeling good, looking forward to the weekend. I was a little late today. You know, sometimes you get in that shower and you didn't realize you were going to be in there that long. You just started feeling so comfortable. I didn't want to get out. Y'all know how those, those good showers that be feeling so good you don't want to get out. So had me like a little like one minute behind. Y'all know how I am on my, on my time. And so I had to, had to hair up and get here. True True. Everybody say what's up to True True will always be a special follower supporter of everything that I've done. She been there from the beginning. Y'all say good morning. True True. She was my very first supporter when I didn't even know I would ever have a following. I started off trying to make a faceless account. I didn't even want my face on it. And then next thing I know, two years later, I'm a whole podcaster youtuber with hundreds of thousands of followers. I never would have thought it, but True True saw it first. True True was supporting me when I didn't even know I was worth supporting. So everybody definitely give True a special shout out. And I'm not, I mean that like I'm not exaggerating one bit. True True is the very first flow supporter when I have no supporters. So very special. And it just tells you like I told you, my journey is real. My followers, my supporters, they don't support me because of one take. Because what I say about this or say about that, they support me because we have genuine love for each other. I've always held down my supporters like I always told you when I had only one or two supporters. Now I got 100,000. But I've always treated them the same, with appreciation and all of that. So like our journey is Different. So when I see a person who gets upset about some take I had that they disagree with or I had to talk about somebody that they like and they get upset and threaten to not support and all that, I just know they knew. They knew and they don't get what this journey is about. It's deeper than that. This is real love. On this journey, my people have held me down all the time, and I've always held them down. So it's just a special situation. I'm blessed. I'm blessed to have all y'all. I love all my Apple and Spotify listeners, my YouTube, y'all support me so much. It's the reason why I'm able to get out of the bed and come here and talk about Diddy and rant and just whatever I have to say. So appreciate to everybody now. And y'all ain't gonna never. I ain't gonna never stop telling y'all how much I appreciate y'all. So if you get on y'all nerves, y'all just got to deal with it because. Because y'all know I'm no filter, and no filter go both ways. No filter don't mean you just talk crap about everybody. No filter mean I'mma tell you good things, how I feel all the time. I don't care. I'm just trans. I'm just like that. What? If it's in my head and I want to say it, I'm going say it. But Justin Bieber, y'all, you know, we got some daily Diddy and stuff is starting to heat up because we do have a trial coming up and. And like. Like, we know closer to trial, the crazier things get and few things going on. First of all, Justin Bieber is reportedly visibly getting upset every time Diddy is mentioned. It was a long time of all this going on that he was still following Diddy. Allegedly, he has unfollowed Diddy and unfollowed a host of other media people. It's a lot going on. So we gonna. I've been. It's been a lot with Justin Bieber lately, and I haven't covered him in detail in a while with the new development. So we're gonna get into that today. One of my listeners, Michelle, brought up a article that talked about how Justin Bieber was getting gifted, and I quote, gifted to LA Reid. And LA Reid basically gifted him to Diddy one second, y'all, and he gifted him to Diddy. So it kind of spells out the whole. It kind of spells out the whole situation, you know, how this all went down. And maybe it was like they almost was like grooming. They, like, had a grooming facility or, you know, like a grooming farm or whatever. Like my. My boy Greg said on the lunchtime show yesterday, he said Diddy was an expert groomer. So we're going to talk about that. I have a crazy situation that happened back in my hometown, Cleveland, Ohio, a suburb a little bit out of Cleveland. I want to tell you about that. It's just a situation that's going to let you say, don't ever take nobody for granted who are around you. You never know what they going through. And this story that happened in my hometown is going to break your heart. But I need to bring awareness to it. So I got that and I'm shout out some subscribers. Oh, shout out to the subscribers. Yesterday I told you we. For the first day we had, we didn't have any subscribers. I think it was two days in a row. And I told you the importance of the subscribers. If you want to protect truth, if you understand this movement, subscribing is not just about the money, it's about preserving the truth. It's only $3, and it allows people like me and other podcasters, you may like, it gives them the power to continue to tell y'all the truth. Because the truth, because if you notice, there is a war on media and they are trying to control the narrative. And so they're going. They're trying to control it with their money. And YouTubers and podcasters like me, if you're smart, build up your support and understand, let your community understand how important it is to subscribe so that I can get on here and tell us and talk about what we want to talk about, not what they want us to talk about. And so that's what the subscriber whole situation is about. You'll get exclusive content. But I just want to thank you because the minute I put that out there, I got some more subscribers yesterday, and I'm gonna shout them out today and tell you who the subscriber of the day is. So I really appreciate you. One thing about y'all, y'all listen and y'all understand when I tell y'all something. I'm not feeding you no crap. I'm. I'm the type to tell you exactly why, what, when, where, and why. You know, a lot of people tell you I want subscribers. I'm telling you exactly why I want subscribers. I want a subscriber because I want to continue to come on here and Talk about what we want to talk about and be our voice. I don't want to have to take money from Walmart because guess what? Walmart, I got hundreds of thousands of followers. Walmart will support my podcast tomorrow and give me good money. But guess what? Then I can't be on here talking about we need to boycott boy Walmart because of dei. So that's just a small example of the power of a three dollar donation or if you could give more, that is the power. Because the minute that I can't survive off of my podcast and I have to take money from McDonald's or I have to take money from Target because I have the numbers, I got almost a hundred thousand downloads, half a million followers. They'll give me, they'll sponsor me tomorrow, I'll have Greg send them an email and they'll sponsor me. But then I can't come on here talking about let's boycott Target. And so if my platform turned into that, I don't want to do it. So thank y'all. I just like to, I know a little long winded on that, but I'm the type, I like to explain to y'all, if I'm asking for y'all money, I'm telling y'all exactly why and what the benefit is and what not. I'm not just going to ask. So let's get into this, y'all. I appreciate everybody on this movement with me. There's been a hell of a ride. So first, before I get into Justin Bieber being upset every time Diddy's name being brought up, this is a brand new article. Before I get into that, I want to start with how it all became. And thanks to Michelle for sending me this article. Also Tiffany Lauren co signed and also sent me the article and said this is the article Michelle was trying to send you. So when all my listeners are working that hard on the article, it lets me know. Let's talk about it. So before we get into what's going on with Justin Bieber, now let's get into what was going on with Justin Bieber back then. Now this article comes out of the Daily Mail and the title of the article is How Usher brought beautiful and they say beautiful in quotes. 14 year old boy Justin Bieber to the music mogul La Reid as a quote unquote gift and how it paved the way for the singer's friendship with Diddy. So let's check it out. Article starts off the pop star who was 15 when he gained worldwide fame with his debut single One Time in 2009 was originally discovered at 12 by industry entrepreneur Scooter Braun. And at that time he was covering pop songs for Usher and Chris Brown and artists like that. And it was on YouTube. But it goes on to say his big break came when Usher brought Bieber to the music mogul LA Reid as a gift. And at this time he was 14 years old. Now one year on from being signed to the Island Records by Reed, a fifth a then 15 year old Bieber spent a now infamous 48 hour period with Diddy seemingly unsupervised at the rapper's home where they went and I quote full buck crazy. Now you know about this, that 48 hour meeting. Y'all seen the footage where Justin Bieber seemed a little awkward. He's with Diddy and Diddy's talking to him and they basically he telling Diddy saying he can't do he, he can't tell what big brother Puff does with him. And it just seemed very, very, very creepy. We all know about that footage. Well that's what they talking about here. Now L A Reid first met Puff Daddy who is known as Diddy now while looking for a new A R. He was so impressed by him and and you know Clive Davis also was co signing Diddy at the time. Now when read who himself is also being sued right now for essay himself somebody got some suits against Reed. He signed Usher. LA Reid signed Usher as a teenager and then sent him off to be mentored by Diddy for a year when he was 14. So you start looking at it and it's almost like okay, Usher gets sent to Diddy unsupervised and it's weird and we hear about them wrestling for Frosted Flakes and all type of crazy stuff. And at the time Usher's 14 years old. Now Reed wrote a memoir that pieces together how Diddy, Usher and Bieber all became interlinked and how he was the common denominator. Now this is LA Reid himself saying he is the common denominator between that trio. Reid wrote in his tell all memoir about the first his first interaction with Justin who according to Reed had a beautiful face, trendy hair and natural charisma. Now Reed also discovered Usher and the pair remain close friends even after Star after Usher signed with another label. So these are the all these guys, all of these people are connected. L A Reid, Diddy and all of that. According to this article and according to LA Reid's own book, he recalled how Usher phoned him in October 28th to ask if he'd be in the office all afternoon because he had something he wanted to bring him. At 4pm, Usher arrived with an adorable 14 year old boy. Reed says this kid was beautiful, like a woman can be beautiful and men rarely are. And he turned it on as soon as he stepped into the room. Reed recall. Now, I don't even, maybe it's me, but I don't even like the way Reed is. These are his quotes too. The kid was beautiful like a woman, Like a woman can be beautiful and man rarely are. And he turned it on as soon as he stepped in the room. Now mind you, this is a kid that he's talking about. Bieber immediately sat down at the piano and started singing. Then he played the guitar. They said it was kind of like a nightclub act. And then Usher said to LA Reid, this is Justin Bieber, La Reid. And I quote, usher didn't just bring me a kid with an amazing voice. He bought me a born entertainer, someone who would become the biggest of them all. When Usher said he had a gift, he wasn't kidding. Quoted by La Reid, Reed then decided to sign Justin straight away and claimed that his hair was every bit as important as the song and his voice. He explained since he was a minor, it took a couple days to get his parents involved and signed off. Where were the parents at this whole time? I mean, like, were they there? Were. I wonder, did he, did L A Reid call, like say these things about their, about Justin Bieber to his mother or father or whoever was his guardian at the time? That's the kind of things I wonder about when I'm going through this. Like, what were the parents thinking at the time? Did they see anything? Because you know, as parents we normally have intuition when something ain't right. And it just, I guess, you know, a lot of people say they just want the money or they just, they're blinded by the fame and whatever. But so it goes on to say the next time Bieber came to the office with his manager, Scooter Braun, Justin had grown his hair so that it was almost covering his eyes, which Reed described as a catchy look that was all his own. I could see immediately that Justin's hair would be every bit as important as his songs, his voice, his face and his presence, he said, adding that teens would want to copy his haircut. So as you can see, Reed is loving Justin Bieber, getting him primed and ready for Diddy. And so Diddy could take over from there. Reed went on and on, gushing over more and more about Justin Saying Justin was simply beautiful. His superpower was his face, but his hair and his appearance were only part of his charm. Justin had this natural charisma that instantly transformed him into his own character. Whereas other artists had to work to develop the Persona that they wanted to project, Justin Bieber was lovable and lively from the start with a radiant personality. L A Reid. I wonder, is his name going to be coming up in the weeks and months to come? Because judging from this article, and I'm gonna continue, it definitely seems like if he wasn't a part of. Of it, he definitely knows something. But it's. It's not. Look, it's looking kind of crazy, y'all. So okay. Usher played a huge role in jumpstarting Justin's career and everybody know that. Justin quickly became involved with Usher and Diddy shortly after being signed by LA Reid. So speaking to the Hollywood Reporter, he revealed how P. Diddy was the one who. Who the one that would talk him and take him around, telling them, don't be a fool. Don't sell your stock in. In Usher. He's still going to be a star. He's everything you thought he was the day you signed him. With that advice in mind, he hired a vocal coach to help Bieber through his transition. So they had little doubts he was going through a transition, but that just lets you know how young Bieber is as it's going on. Reed also is fighting his own cases. I mentioned that. So now fast forward. You know, Justin Bieber goes on. There he goes, goes on to be with Diddy and who knows what Diddy did in that 48 hours. But let's talk about Reed before we go into the Justin and be the Bieber and Diddy situation, let's talk about what Reed had going on. Reed, who was sued for essay, which is assault by a former colleague at Arista Records, Drew Dixon, who says he assaulted her twice in 2001 on a private plane, in the back of it and in the back of his private car. Dixon, who rose to be a vice president of Arista, had previously accused Reed of misconduct. Claims Reed impeded in her career and prevented her from singing and cultivating from. Sorry, sorry, not singing. She cultivated artists and re prevented her from signing artists such as John Levin, the John Legend and others. So basically, Reed, she's saying that read sexually assaulted and also hindered her from signing big artists. You know how big John Legend went on to become. She departed the company in 2002 and that was the end of that. Meanwhile, now Justin is being. Is Disgusted by these allegations. And that's what's going to lead, that's what leads us to the next situation, the Bieber and Diddy situation. So now we, we got the whole layout how this all came to be. LA Reid, Usher brought Justin Bieber to LA Reid and LA Reid sent Justin Bieber to Diddy. And we are waiting to know what the heck really happened with that situation. So before we get into this next article where it reads, this is from the Mirror, Justin Bieber quote unquote gets upset when Pete did. His name is brought up and this is like just dropped like yesterday. But before we get into that, check out this clip from the Kidity Nation talking about the same thing.
