Coming to Northeast Wisconsin live from the Civic Media Studios, this is Mino and the Mayor.

And here are your hosts, John Minow and Jim Schmidt.

Hey, welcome back.

Minow and the Mayor here.

Man, we've had some great guests today, haven't we?

A lot of

fun.

And I think we're the only show that'll go from pro wrestling to the MULFA Center for the Arts.

That's all right.

I think that just shows the breadth of the community

and what's going on.

You're both bringing something cool to the community.

Love it.

And quality stuff too, which is cool.

Introduce our special guest, Jim.

So

the

MULFA,

What's the title like?

Multicultural Center.

Multicultural

Center, that's slipped.

And I love that place.

And we are so, I was telling you before we came on the air, how fortunate we are to have that.

And you have an event coming up.

And Katie Compton and Nancy Pierce

are special guests.

You guys interrupt me when I start talking about the event.

I was just waiting for you to like introduce.

I was going to do that.

You should probably say the people's names first.

That is not really true.

And then where they were.

That's not really true.

Mm, Todd.

I'm not getting in the middle of this.

I'm

not going

to be the

child that has to pick a parent.

We love your facility there.

You get to live with one of us.

What's it going

to be?

And you've got a great exhibit coming up.

And thanks for being in here.

So Katie, you are kind of the director.

And tell us what the art display that's coming up here.

Sure.

So we just opened our newest free atrium exhibit.

So this one you don't have to pay come see.

And it's called Art of the Aviary.

And it's in partnership with the Green Bay Art Colony.

And it's all local artists.

you know, kind of dissolve or dissolves, devolves into like the world of flight and the world of aviation.

So it's a really beautiful exhibit.

And Nancy here is, is with me today from the Green Bay Art Colony.

And she actually has some pieces in it.

And she can tell us a little bit about how great that organization is as well.

Yeah, Green Bay Art Colony has been around for over a hundred years.

It started.

Isn't that we got a brochure on that from yesterday.

Okay.

Yeah.

Back in 1915.

Yes.

And they helped start the Neville Museum.

because they all wanted a place to exhibit their art, and then it evolved into Green Bay Art Colony.

Talk about the uniqueness of that organization.

Well, the fact is that we're only a women's organization, and I believe that we are the oldest women's art organization in the state.

So that's terrific.

Right.

1915, wow.

Yeah, a nice legacy behind us, and hopefully continues.

But yeah, we have 19 different artists at this exhibit.

A lot of really cool art, different media.

We've got photography, sculpture, painting, three-dimensional.

And what is your niche?

Mine is photography.

And when it comes to the display of aviation, what kind of things will we see under your

display?

Well, it's less about aviation and more about the broad area of flight.

You'll see a lot of birds, you'll see sky, you will see composites that bring both of those together.

The display is up now.

It started this Wednesday, I believe it was the first Tuesday.

Yep, this last week and then we had an opening on Friday, which

was really well attended.

June 18th, I think,

great.

Yep.

And the really nice thing about this one is that everybody's local.

And so when you come in and you can experience these pieces, these are all people living in your community.

And you can just see the, the amount of talent for

the people,

you know, you're walking by them and target and you're like, you don't know, but these people

are

very talented.

These are very, very beautiful pieces.

And they're, you know, they, they are very diverse when you look through them.

So it's a really cool exhibit.

And we were mentioning during the break, we had Naomi on the other day and Jim and I went to like her.

It wasn't a grand opening last summer, but it's an open house.

That's where we're looking.

Yeah, the art crush.

And it's the same thing.

It's like, we're looking at it and say, wow, look at this.

Where did this come from?

And the lady will be like, well, that's mine.

Yeah.

It's like, whoa, that's almost like scary.

How does somebody have that kind of talent?

It's

us.

I'm amazed at how much talent there is here in the arts and, you know, the visual arts, but you know, just the music arts, we have somebody

coming

in.

Absolutely.

performing arts, it's just, we're very blessed here in this community.

I think we've been a little bit overshadowed by the athletic arts,

which is great.

I mean, we are, we're very fortunate, but what a great display and that flight is, that's a pretty broad brush.

It is, it is.

And it's fun to see where their imaginations have taken them because there's quite a broad variety of subject matter and the way they've executed it.

Tell us about photography because that's changed so much over the years.

Hasn't it with technology?

It has.

Used to be 35 millimeter was the standard

and it

was film and now you can hardly find anyone who can develop film.

We've gone into the

digital age

and even processing it is still done by hand because the

Processing is done digitally a lot of times with Photoshop, but

okay, we got it because I had a photography class in college Yeah, and there was something magical about taking that thing and putting it in the solution or whatever and seeing that thing appear that was so much fun

Yeah, yeah, that was fun.

It was kind of magic.

It was magic exactly

But it's also fun when when you're working on the computer to bring a picture to life because the camera only sees Light

okay

what you saw with your eyes

needs to be brought out of that picture.

It's not automatic.

You might have to brighten it.

You might have to sharpen it.

You might have to tweak the colors because the camera didn't see the difference between the bright pink and the pale pink.

So it is a little bit like magic when you're still working on the computer, but it's a different process.

How

many artists do you have again?

Did you tell me that?

19.

How many pieces of art did you display?

Nancy.

Oh, it's talking

about Nancy.

It's a little bit over 50.

Yeah.

I only have three pieces in there.

Okay.

Some people have one.

Some people have three,

four.

That must have been difficult for you to pick three pieces when given the subject matter was aviation.

Yeah.

It was an open, open-ended subject.

So it was hard to kind of pare it down to what I wanted to put in the show.

Okay.

And there's, how many did you say?

A

little bit over 50

pieces.

Wow.

That's cool.

Yeah.

And it's just different.

types?

Is there some sculpture

there?

There's some sculpture, photography, there's paintings.

Fabric?

There's fabric.

That's right.

There's some textile arts.

It's really cool because with that broad, like with the aviary being the topic so broad, like

Nancy was

saying, it's cool to see how everybody kind of took that topic and made it their own.

So there's a lot of birds, but there's some that have no birds.

And so just to kind of see the variations on how that creativity came out with that one

topic.

You know what I think is one of the cool things taking place in art right now?

Yeah.

And people might say, well, that's not really right.

It's when these people put together these sculpture type things.

of things they find beach combing.

Have

you seen some of those?

It's amazing what they can create out of pieces of glass and things that they find on the beaches and walking around.

And sometimes it's not even beach.

Sometimes it is just litter or recycled or things like that.

I believe one of the artists she uses like a foam, like a packing foam in the current exhibit and she kind of carps part of that out and then paints it and then puts a resin over it to give it a little bit more texture.

So I think even some of those pieces have different kind of media.

They're mixed media.

just to see that creativity.

The creativity of some people.

When you don't have that, as a person that doesn't have that.

It's

creative in the subject matter, but it's also very creative in the techniques used to present the final

piece of art.

Exactly.

I mean, that's so impressive.

Right, right.

You know, that skill that, and again, is it, is art, and whatever you want to, you know, use as what art is, is it?

And anyway, an inquired skill or when you were born, did you have those chromosomes that said, this is what I'm going to be good at?

Well, I think everybody is good at art when they're young and they're uninhibited and can just do

what they feel like doing.

But I think as we grow older, we have perfectionistic tendencies and we want it to look perfect.

And when it isn't perfect, we get discouraged.

And if there isn't somebody there to help kind of nurture you along.

that sort of just kind of gets put in the back.

I can see that.

So are you a teacher?

You seem like you encourage people to not get intimidated and not become not

very

supportive.

Right.

Don't get, don't let perfection get in the way of good enough.

Well, that's, I'm speaking personally.

Oh, that's great.

No, I'm not a teacher, but I find that I am probably my worst critic.

Yeah.

I look at it and say, well, that's not how it looked.

And then the other part of me says, but

How can you make it that way?

What can you do?

How can you, um, change it?

And I think with the dark room, you had a lot less control over how that final product was manipulated and changed and encouraged in the dark room, whereas now the sky's the limit.

Katie, will some of this artwork

be

for

sale?

Some of it is for sale.

So we do have a brochure there that you can flip through it and you can contact the artists and the prices are in it.

Some of it is already sold.

Some of it's not for sale.

And actually if you come in and visit our splurge gift shop, some of the artists have additional pieces for sale in the gift shop

of

various sizes and various price points and things like that.

So yeah, stop

it.

Is it getting the reputation now around the state that this is kind of a very

a hub, so to speak, of cool, original art.

You know, we hope so.

One of our focuses is just bringing in things that we feel the community wants to see and then getting that feedback from the community.

This one here is being all local artists.

We've really had a really good reception, people coming in specifically to see it.

And two, because their friend is in it, their neighbor, somebody they saw on social media, they know people in it and they want to come see the art, but also people are just curious.

what is going on in the community, I think, like Jim said before, we have a lot of really talented people in

this

community, and we have musicians

in every

Thursday, and

yeah, I think that knowing that and enjoying some of that is really, we're getting there as a community, we're seeing all the music and the arts come out a bit more.

That's awesome.

One thing I

think that the MOVA is good at is involving kids, and you're...

once a month sessions that the kids can come and do something artistic.

And we have two days that Green Bay Art Colony is going to be the teachers.

Those are coming up.

One is going to be kids can create a birdhouse, paint a birdhouse,

decorate a birdhouse.

Okay, stop right there.

I wasn't contacted.

You know about my birdhouse building

ability.

Oh, my goodness.

Tell

us.

Actually, they do.

Yeah, that's my passion is building Barnwood birdhouses.

Oh, yeah.

These

are miniature ones that

we're

doing.

And then we're having, we're letting people come in and they can decorate them.

But one of the artists is going to lead that session.

So every second Saturday of the month, we have a drop in program that goes from noon to three.

And so for the.

July and the August.

Sorry to remember what month it is.

The July and the August ones, we're going to have artists from the Grime Art Colony coming in.

So the Birdhouse is the first one, but they're a little bit smaller.

They're adorable.

They're

very cute.

They

can be done in a short period of time and

go

home with something that's finished and

cool.

I think it's great what you said, where the art community is giving back.

I don't think you could ask for anything better than that.

I thought that was interesting what Nancy said about that.

I think maybe everyone is a little bit of an artist, but

for whatever reason, they didn't pursue it.

You get that one bad grade when you're in the sixth

grade in our project.

Or criticism,

great or criticism.

I know we're going to go to a quick break here, but Katie, we just need to talk a little bit more about all the things Mova offers.

And I know some of it may cost some money, but so much of it is free as well.

And again, as I told you,

such a beautiful building.

I don't think people understand how welcoming that

building is.

And

I know Nancy's been there a lot of times, but I think...

When you look at us, we're kind of statuesque.

And I think people find it, we're a little intimidating.

But when you come in and we're anything but the team, everybody's very welcoming.

And just to put this out there, on July 4th, actually, from 10 to 3, we're going to be open for free during those hours.

So you can come see the exhibits.

See everything?

We're going to be running two films.

That's cool.

I mean, if you want something in the cafe, that'll cost you a little.

But everything else you can do for free that day.

I'll talk more about all the things that you offer there.

And even if it is cost money, it's

It's not a lot, you know, it's just, you're priced so well.

I just, we're so fortunate to have that here.

Thanks to the Malvas.

All right, we're going to be right back with

Katie Cochran and Nancy Pierce, Malva Cultural Center for the Arts.

Back after

this.

And spring became the summer Who'd have believed

you'd come along Hand Touching hand

We've got daddy deep productions live music exclusive and Nate and we've got our man The man the man is in the house Glam Band Dennis, which will always be fun Katie Compton Nancy Pierce talk about the mulch Mulva cultural center for the arts and you know Jim and I were actually just talking during a break here today I was at Walgreens in deep here in New York.

I was like whoa That is quite the impressive structure.

Yeah, we have a beautiful building

And some of the engineering that went into it, you know, we have heat that comes through the floors and we have the way the snow melts.

Like there's all these things that were really thoughtfully put into it.

And I think that's what we also tried to bring them to the exhibits and to the films and everything we're bringing in, you know, we try to give that thoughtful, like, what are people curious about?

And that's what we kind of want to lean into.

Nancy, just text us.

She says, hey.

Please make sure that we'll talk about the Mall of Us, somebody mentions the gift shop.

It is a great place to find really unique, one-of-a-kind gifts at all price points.

Yes, so we have a gift shop right when you walk in, it's called Splurge, and we have some local artists in there from Art of the Aviary, but some local artists that are also not.

So we have gifts from artists from all over the country.

So a lot of one-of-a-kind unique things in that gift shop.

So if you're looking for a gift, or if you're looking for something original, it's really a great place to stop by, but it has all price.

points and I think sometimes people walk into a gift shop like that and I think everything is too expensive.

It really isn't.

We also have a section that is just about our exhibits so right now we have spy and we have explore your world so we have little books on spy craft for kids and and

let's mention the food.

Oh

yeah we have

a great brunch on Sundays.

I didn't know that until I drove past yesterday and I sat on the marquee.

So I get that, that's probably the comment I get quite a bit when people walk in there.

We didn't realize you had a restaurant.

It does say on the side of the building, like Sunday brunch or whatever.

So we have a beautiful restaurant.

It's called Saber on Broadway.

We do lunches, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday.

We do brunch on Sunday, and then we do dinners on Thursday, Friday, Saturday.

And it's a unique menu.

We change it out about twice a year.

Some local flavors.

We look for local things in the community, bringing stuff in fresh.

So

I was gonna say your.

It's very fresh salads

and

it's a healthy place to eat, right?

I mean, wouldn't that?

Well, I mean, we're trying to do like more farm to table, right?

So it isn't driving necessarily from, you know, the other side of the world to get here.

And there's not necessarily anything wrong with that, but that's what our focus is,

is

kind of bringing in that fresh food, things that are going to be more seasonal.

Right.

And since it's changing up, anytime you go in there, you might get something completely different.

I bet they don't have pasty

night.

I don't think they

do.

We do not.

No, I don't remember seeing that.

At brunch though, we have some really great waffles and stuff.

And a lot of times

that flavor is changing.

I know we

have, we've

had like key lime and things like that.

So you, you know,

how old am I using the word lard?

Right?

Katie, I think you have so many events there.

And I just think there's still people out of the 200,000 people that live here.

I don't know what percent has been there.

Back in the day, I'm going to age myself a little bit.

We had this passport in your own town.

You go to places because there's a lot of people that hadn't been to the botanical gardens I mean it's like everybody's been to Bay Beach in Lambeau field although the Hall of Fame a lot of people hadn't been to the new

one

right and You you would get this stamped and I don't know maybe there was 20 things in there.

I don't even know and then you turned it in and There were gifts that you could win.

Okay, one of them of course was Packard tickets, but then there were some other things that people could win and

A lot, a lot of people did that.

And I think that would be cool to do again.

Yeah.

And I think you have a couple of months to do it.

It's not like I'm doing a weekend.

Yeah.

But I just think it's, there's just so many cool things that happen.

And I think that, you know, even, um, Tarleton's place, Tarleton, Tarleton needs to, I don't know, that's a cool place in Green Bay.

You have a lot of cool stuff in deep here and everywhere.

Right.

So anyway, I just.

think that we should maybe work on that together.

Yeah, absolutely.

And I think that you're, you're hitting the nail on the head there.

There's a lot of really awesome things in the community.

You know, you've got the Neville, the Botanical Garden and things that have been here a little bit and they're in people's brains, but then you're like, I haven't been there in forever.

And so this kind of gets people out because they're always changing their stuff.

We're always changing.

And I hate to throw this out there with him, but.

Babe Beach, I took my granddaughters there and they're from Madison where you've got everything in the world and you go to Wisconsin Dills.

They just said that was the coolest place they've ever been.

Absolutely.

And

look at what they've added in the last 10

years.

And

look at the botanical

gardens.

And you buy 40 tickets for like five

dollars.

But the botanical gardens, that bowl they have there and those

concerts there is

in, you know,

they have festivals.

Right.

So there's

all, people are upgrading.

They've been here

for a

while, but you got to be competitive.

We just, talking about your state about, you got

to be

competitive.

Anyway.

I just think we got to work

on that

together, but I just let's get back to

how great this

is with Nancy and this display.

Just want you

to just say one more thing about the, cause I've always been interested in photography, even with being in TV and newspaper type work where you used to do that and everything like that.

And there is an, it's not just pointing and shooting.

And then the, the camera industry, I think has tried to sell it that, Oh no, even with our camera, you, it doesn't matter.

You just point and shoot.

That isn't it at all.

Yes, anybody can do that.

But to make something that somebody wants to put on a wall, that takes a skill.

Well, it's kind of funny, but it's kind of like saying to a writer, a gifted writer, you must have a wonderful typewriter.

Exactly.

That's what I mean.

The camera isn't necessarily what makes a good picture.

Exactly.

It's the eye and what you do to it afterwards.

Yes.

That's

cool.

And it's too bad Kodak didn't keep up with the times, right?

Great company goes under because it changed.

And if you don't change with the times and you obviously did, you know, and I think that's cool, but that you, but some things never change.

And that's the photographer for not the photography.

What that photographer sees is the key.

Right.

And it's, it is about what you see.

And it's

fun

to go out with several people in a camera group and then come back and share photos and say, I never saw that.

Where was that?

We each see something different.

And that's kind of fun to see what's going on in

people's

minds.

I'm really interested because you must have, I'm going to guess, thousands of pictures.

And I'm going to be interested in the three that you picked.

That must have been like difficult.

It was.

I have one that's just a black and white.

All you see is the black background, which is water and one single white feather floating on the water.

Wow.

Just very simple.

That's awesome.

Great stuff.

I

can't wait to see

that.

Katie Compton, Nancy Pierce, Mother Cultural Center for the Arts.

You got to stop down there, folks.

This is really cool.

And free on July 4th.

I know we've offended guys quickly, but not that

For a minute or

two.

Yeah, he's a little

bit shy.

I mean introduce yourselves first of all I'm really jealous that you guys are as young as you are and as talented as you are but I

appreciate it.

Well, I'm Jesus Castillo better known as artists named exclusive I'm finding all platforms, but uh, yeah, that's me and then I'm here with my buddy Nate.

Yeah, so I'm Nate, uh, you know

You can, my artist name is Nate DeCapo, I sort of like that, so you can find me underneath all that.

You know, I'm turning 21 next week, and yeah, we all play this music.

Gee,

must be flipping nice.

So.

Explain what de capo means?

So de capo is an Italian music term for back to the beginning So every time I go and make a project, you know when I make a Nate de capo project that means it's a self-produced project So every time I go and make a self-produced project I go back to the beginning.

What can I do to make something new?

What can I do to?

Just start over and just create something different

right on

Beautiful.

I like

that part of it.

Yeah, that's

what you encourage.

Isn't it Dennis?

Oh, absolutely.

This guy's just full of it.

I mean, he's when I say that I mean he's got the spirit.

He's got the spirit of the music in them, you know, and he's like you can see the creativity.

I actually can see it.

It's just awesome.

His work, I think it's crazy.

He run laps around me.

It's

crazy.

His work, I think, big inspiring, which is why I wanted him here.

I wanted to put him in the radio so he can get his name out there and stuff.

And we're about to perform a song.

Well, later on in the section, we're about to perform a song together.

Exclusive

are the two of you or you?

No, that's just me.

That's just you.

Exclusive.

And then this is Nate the Cabo.

OK.

All right.

All right.

And you guys, you work together.

Yeah.

Yeah.

me under his wing probably about like two years ago now

I would

say and like you know that was back when I was like 18 years old and and I was still like very immature but he still took me under his wing and taught me everything at

home.

What's

he talking about

being immature?

I'm still working on that

one.

Three times your age and we're still immature.

No yeah no I saw him like I like when I first met him I met him through another buddy his name is Michael you know shout out Michael and I met him he brought him to the studio because I go to UWO for music so I'm in UWO for audio production and

business so I do music and I own a business and so I do that and then one day he brought him he brought him with and then right off the back like you know I like them I'm like I like you know like yeah like he said he was a little bit immature at first it was like you know it took me a minute but then as she got older I saw him mature more in the music and I saw that he was more serious and then yeah we started hanging out more getting the studio more and stuff like that and then now we're making songs together he's producing his own stuff like I'm very proud of this young man right here yeah

next week on the album

We have a song called the light and that's you know, like I said produced by me and and it's one that's by him and I and so that's gonna be out next week as well

All your music is original.

Oh, yeah, everything like well except well I'm not gonna lie like some of the beats we do get from YouTube obviously we pay licenses and stuff But our music some will not the music my bad the beat so that some of the beats are from YouTube So you got to pay a license to

the

producer of the beat and so like that but some beats are made from my buddy Brandon He's another beatmaker that we met at UWO and I don't know everything starting out at UWO

Like you know like we have like the whole like the cameraman out there the beatmaker like everything starting out out there So it's been going pretty all right any

tape that say at least for me any tape.

That's a Nate de capo tape All the beats are made by me.

All

right.

We're not talking about the beats for that growing the ground

kids For

guys our agent looking for better circulation, but so explain to the to the layperson beats the concept of beats what that means and how the

Creates your music.

Okay.

So basically like well, okay if we get them off YouTube like basically like

I'm gonna just tell you my process right like if I if I if I'm feeling inspired like I want to write a song or do something I literally just go on YouTube and then like I just look up like an artist type beat and then I just like I See if I like it or not and then like all of a sudden like the first couple lines that come into my head That's the chorus of the song.

That's

usually what works for me like

let me hear you do one live a beat a good

beat

I

just

that surprises me that they're like patented that I That you have to buy it.

Yeah that they're that the copyrights for that

many I mean isn't it all kind of like

Just out there for anybody.

So that kind of they're all

like kind of the same.

You know, the

sixties were kind of the same seventies.

It's

not.

They're all if you own that.

Yeah.

If you're

the

first one to copyright it, it's yours.

You get there.

You

get

the rights.

Yeah.

And like on the title of the B, like let's say you go on YouTube right now and you find like any B, it's going to say free.

But like it's really not free.

They just put it's like it kind of like a clickbait, you know.

And then like, but then you read the description that says all free, but you have to buy a license or whatever.

So it's really not free.

But some of them are, some of them say free for profit.

which like but it's rare to come across but I mean some of them like to say yeah like I had I had a couple songs like even though I paid for like the license they took them down because I guess like they just didn't see the license or whatever they took them down and stuff but like yeah it's like it's it's kind of a like I don't even know it like

you guys ready to turn this place apart daddy deep

right

all right

Who are we gonna hear?

Let's hear the one with you guys both.

Yeah, that sounds good.

Bring it on.

Yeah, let's get it.

It's a Spanish and English song that me and Nate

did.

Oh,

Spanish.

I love it.

I don't even speak Spanish.

It took me four hours to write my verse.

Tell me mommy, tell me what you want.

We're alone, tell me what you prefer.

Your mom talks to you when it suits you.

Tell me mommy, tell me what you want.

We're alone, tell me what you prefer.

Your mom talks to you when it suits you.

Tell me mommy, tell me what you want.

We're alone, tell me what you prefer.

Your mom talks to you when it suits you.

Tell me mommy, tell me what you want.

We're alone, tell me what you prefer.

Your mom talks to you when it suits you.

Tell me mommy, tell me what you prefer.

Tell me why I ain't see your love tonight Let me see your hips and thighs Your body has been hypnotized You gotta

play your skin

today

Can you sway your waist to the waves of

the temple?

Can you sway your waist to the waves of the temple?

Tell me why.

I ain't see your love tonight Let me see your hips and thighs

That was me and Nate, exclusive and Nate, live.

You know what I'm saying?

We made this song and we were like, 30 minutes.

I don't even know.

We did it so quick.

That was awesome.

Exclusive and Nate, Daddy D Productions Live Music Series with Dennis from the Glam Band.

The

only, I have to say, the only word I knew in that, denaro.

That's

the only thing I knew.

Yes, sir.

That was

awesome.

Oh my gosh, that was awesome.

So here's this guy from Hortonville dropping some Spanish on

y'all.

A lot.

Yeah.

And

he wrote it by himself.

I did not help him.

Yeah, I speak Spanish

and all

that he wrote it by himself I

locked myself in a room for about four hours and I said I got to do the song justice

Wow,

and and I you know if you listen to it, you know, and you know Spanish it kind of makes sense so

We hope there

are no Spanish swear words

No, no, no, no, no, no

everything was clean.

It's close to clean time.

Yeah.

Yeah.

So the music is what

you purchased

What was the beat for this song?

Okay, yeah the beat, only the beat.

The instrumental, so

like the drums and like the guitars.

Okay,

and

then you wrote that and put that

to that music.

Correct,

yeah, and then recorded it myself and then mixed my vocals, he mixed his, then I sent him my vocals and then he mastered them all and blended them all

together.

Wow, see what ended up happening though was like for this song it has an interesting story because like I had this song, like I recorded the chorus for this song like

like three years now and I had it in the vault for the longest because I just didn't know what to do with it next.

So you know, like, I was going to

ask you about that part.

Yeah.

So I wrote that.

Yeah.

John was singing along.

Yeah.

I appreciate it.

Yeah.

So like I wrote this little chorus, like maybe like three years ago now and I had it in the vault for the longest and I would show all my friends like, bro, you got to drop this.

Like it's like the song of

the

summer, this and that, this and that.

And like, I

just didn't know what to do or I just

didn't

know what to do.

And then one day like Nate, he's like, he hit me up like, bro,

We gotta get on something.

And this is honestly our first song together.

He was like, hey bro, we gotta get on something like all this work that we're doing and we don't really have like a, we don't have like a song together and this and that, right?

And then yeah, one day I was on a trip in Mexico and then I was like, you know what?

I'm gonna just send it to Nate.

And then he sent it back to me within a day and what?

That's awesome.

He

sent me three different songs and he told me to pick one.

I was going through, you know, I heard one.

I was like, oh, you know, that's tough.

Heard another one.

Oh, that's tough.

And then I heard Dima Lomami and I'm like, that's a hit.

That's

a hit.

Can

I

translate?

Sorry.

What

is it?

So, um, I mean, yeah, I can translate so, so I want to say, tell me what you want.

Tell me what you want.

Tell me what you want.

Tell me what you want.

Tell me what you want.

Tell me what you want.

We're alone.

Tell me what you want.

That's a fair question.

It sounds so much better.

Yeah.

Sorry, I brought it

up.
