Story Time: The Vegas Trip

I won the Grammy they just didn't give

it to me

[Applause]

there's a big thing on the internet

right now people cussing

the shade room is everywhere white men

major making music

[Music]

listen again early in the morning

[Music]

it's one of my favorite cities why

because anything can happen in Vegas

what better reason to step out spend

some money on me to look good than to

celebrate spices Grammy nomination so

y'all know exactly how I do it when I do

it

yeah

[Music]

are doing this is my first time in Vegas

I got me and my girls a drop top

Rolls-Royce so we can cruise through the

city looking hella pretty bad [ __ ] love

in Vegas okay oh I don't know what I'm

doing y'all

what I do

the key might not be close

[Music]

now one thing about God he do know how

to hump you right on up here I am trying

to figure out how to start this car not

just order the Rolls-Royce trucks

we're hitting this trip

[Music]

I am divorced but

now what we have to do is wait for our

arbitrator to finalize certain decisions

before I actually have the nerve to

actually keep a set custody with the

game plan of getting me to pay child

support however which way this ends up

karma is real and your girl is ready to

just start to feel like me again I

deserve my mojo best in Vegas you better

give me that we'll have a conversation

about any small thing and it turns into

a big ass argument and then you start

real life and we got some deeply rooted

issues yeah you know what I'm saying all

right [ __ ] we're here

[Applause]

let's go get some shots I mean when I

left Atlanta me and Eric were still kind

of just like we're on a we'll see type

of vibe so while I'm in Vegas I want to

have a good ass time I booked up the

cute little spot and all that we've been

through we need our love Boss [ __ ]

Catalyst girls only guess what I heard

the other day from Chicago what you

heard so apparently she told me um Medea

will walked in

um spices

girl

guess what I saw oh very much

guess the Safari walked in with walked

in where spices of it girl Madea and

Safari she said they walked in together

whatever is going on I just hope that it

stays over there and does not deflect me

over here in any type of way especially

on this trip because regardless of who

Safari is epic trust me when I say it is

not my business

so he just bored okay

y'all [ __ ] something this is my first

time in Vegas but I'm not on the board

we finna go to Carly video shoot Little

Bad Girls Club this week but put your

mother Good Girls Club hat on because

Carly just always and anything might pop

up and anything might happen everybody

know that me and Carly was close friends

and I still to this day love her but

it's just always something I just hope

Bambi and Erica know that when we go to

this music video shoe that they should

be on a piece of fuse because it's Carly

she always on board she just cannot help

it

[Applause]

and to make it happen

hey baby hi girl so I got some good news

for you

and she rich but is she happy

I must have thanked spice like a million

times about really making time to do

this video and spice has been a trooper

about making this song happen while

we're here we gotta get this done she

got mad stuff to do for the Grammys she

out here she got interviewed she got

performances okay I will get on the

director yeah spice is ready

[Music]

and they're pointing and in the same

direction

let me see let me see let me see okay

by the way I've been a video business so

I understand where the younger girls I'm

58 so I'm grown and sexy let me show you

[Music]

video vixen [ __ ] okay let's go and

[Music]

it feels so good to finally walk down

the stairs and see the whole shoot you

have your dancers I see lots of cameras

and the brightest light of them all

[Music]

right

oh

my God

[Music]

you in a video yeah I think I'm supposed

to be calling these love interests

me rubbing me away

[Applause]

Carly this is a big moment for you why

would you put a mess in the middle of

your own video shoes

yeah last week was last week since

spice's celebration party we kind of

paid for an arbitrator so everything was

done privately that's why it wasn't a

big old public debacle it cost a lot of

extra money but the divorce is final

it's official there's just a couple

little things that you know we gotta

wait to hear back on like what's the

child support

no alimony what property is mine what

property is split and stuff like that

like this is a learning experience and

um I just want us to co-parent and just

keep it moving can we please shoot spice

[Music]

thank you

[Music]

don't turn sideways oh I see a [ __ ] we

don't like

Medea no your baby daddy

sperm donor I see them where

why is he here why are we at the right

place I wasn't expecting to see Safari

in Vegas at all especially not at my

friend's video shoot is he a video vixen

hand like

thank you guys for coming you're always

so supportive absolutely thank you for

being humble still because Carly was

acting like she was nominated yesterday

so

like I was trying to like support her

and say hey Carly what's up we here on

but Carly did us like this you know how

we gave you hugs and love and all that

she was like I think because she knew

she knows me an explanation because if

you were to invite Safari why wouldn't

you tell me so I have the option of

deciding if I wanted to be around she

said so far you're gonna be her main man

in the video so I thought that it was

just something if you're gonna hire my

sperm daughter has a video LinkedIn and

I'm your friend you should tell me and

give not sperm donor every coffee stuck

this look yeah I understand not sperm

donor what else is he it's been almost

two months he don't even FaceTime his

kids so wait a minute take care I'm

kidding stop right there what do they

call it in your culture away

[Music]

you're saying what in my country I waste

money somebody who does not take care of

their kids the Safari is a waste man

it's not a good look [ __ ] YouTube

videos ready to accept your Grammy you

don't need to worry about none of that I

know but I love you guys

all right

[Music]

being nominated for a Grammy is one of

the biggest Awards of music I'm so

grateful spice invited us because to

celebrate this moment with her this is a

beautiful beautiful thing we are looking

forward to having a good time I'm super

excited for her and we praying for the W

baby she's too Blondie what's up I'm

divorce girl are you serious like

[ __ ]

the lawyers to decide like the details

financially and right now I just want to

be the best mom to my kids that's it hey

everybody

[Music]

Carly you went so big on us yesterday

[Music]

yeah it was a big day for me I couldn't

have I couldn't deal with no drama okay

but what about what should we deal with

today because as as my friend you owe me

an explanation as far as Safari being

there right I mean why wouldn't you tell

me

he why wouldn't you give me the heads up

that you even invited right I didn't

think he was coming everybody know that

Carly can basically do what she wants

stir the pot and then hide her hands

every time it never fails it's like oh

what did I do I

and it's like you know exactly what you

were doing Carly stop

you said Carly invited me okay I don't

have time for all y'all getting up on me

so let's go over here

everybody's ganging up on me and I don't

feel like I did anything wrong I didn't

invite Safari to to be mean to you well

all in the same Social Circle jock is

always there I really want it when I

invited him I said you know what he said

that y'all didn't talk and y'all not

talking and I said you know what I know

he wants to be with you and I figured

okay you know what me invited him to

Vegas he could just see you yeah

who wasn't out of bedside of a woman

that's carrying his first son right I

didn't know it was that bad for y'all

like that bad and I was like no I'm not

confided in you you wouldn't helped me

and gave me advice on my divorce because

you just went through one how do you not

know I just want y'all to be together

you know Carly do you understand this

what this man don't pushed me first of

all

her reasoning is stupid and it's trash

you can't put your friend in a situation

like that and then want to cry and say

you want her to save her marriage just

take accountability because you know

damn well you can't pay me enough money

to get back with this man Mita you was

rubbing Safari down yesterday I felt

triggered and irritated because why

because I'm saying she don't want it she

don't want nothing to do with them

Innovative people going through a

divorce we never really got introduced

and you don't know my story you don't

know my real story when I first talked

to you you were very pleasant right we

talked on Facebook every time

when somebody's everybody yelling at you

and nobody even listening shut up [ __ ]

I thought Safari walking down the street

with his girl holding hands well girl

I'm not the issue I was walking by on

the strip in Vegas and I saw Safari

walking by with another woman holding

hands so I I'm not your problem you're

worried about the wrong thing Safari is

here with his woman please don't take it

out on me I'm talking

I'm talking I'm talking to my friend

okay well I mean it wasn't necessary I'm

talking to my friend not talking to you

okay

everybody

but you're not going to do though is

disrespect me on my friends but you only

know one side of it you don't know the

other side of how she always comes at me

you got to remember Kendra's our friend

so just like if it was the other way

around wouldn't you want your friends to

be a buck about the woman that you know

is your friend's man so I didn't I'm not

him now I'm not with him I don't care

but they always up in my face asking me

questions if you don't know me you are

the snide [ __ ]

honey I've never been no side [ __ ]

that's your business again okay girl you

take pride in that you even went back on

the runway and gave a surround because

you're the queen of the Jungle of the

side [ __ ] you took on that role I

don't understand why you're so appalled

at me calling what you already said you

are let me tell you I don't have

sympathy for nobody especially after

what I've been through you know [ __ ]

are smiling your face the next day so I

don't been there done that your business

your business

chick that he was walking down the

street with I don't got nothing with him

and that's all I wanted to say that's

all I wanted he has he has three of them

he wrote okay well I'm not one of them

and guess what I just wanted to say that

you just you know what's so crazy is you

bringing that up and you're walking away

you see how weird you just contradicted

yourself as a woman

oh they perceived me the wrong way and

then you're like oh I'm not one of the

women that he's walking down the street

with [ __ ] I just finished telling you I

don't give a [ __ ] about

safariable don't play with me Chicana

I'm not wanted out of Chicano I'm not

one of them

okay

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

the video shoot was a great success so

just to celebrate the label suggested

that we should do a big party and I

already planned a surprise party at

their house before we even got into it

and I figured it'll be a cool Olive

Branch space I also want to tell you

thank you for the video shoot and thank

you minute thank you spice for like

being on the song and everything you've

done I really appreciate you from my

heart I will never forget this ever in

life

[Music]

the day before the Grammys

[Music]

[Applause]

excited oh

[Music]

black woman in music and I saw another

award on your social media yeah so I got

um award for female VP of the year

um from the Aria FM as well they also

gave me collaboration of the year

because

[Music]

another award from Jamaica International

music that's so dope and I just feels so

blessed and honored that I'm even here

just celebrating being nominated for a

Grammy I'm getting so many other Awards

but it also makes me feel good to be a

mom great legend in the reggae category

Sean Paul is there grabs more than etana

two times nominated so if I don't win

I'm already a winner

[Music]

I just feel like it's a disrespect for

him to just pounce up with this girl

what if Erica was here you're not just

walking with this girl like man

these men

you ain't had no business doing this to

me my brother hey girl I got nothing to

get y'all know you but you gonna show

show ass today

I cannot believe this [ __ ] just

bought this [ __ ] up in here and my

crying before he brings drama my way

listen take over five seconds

[Music]

that's what this is about right thank

you for having me hi nice to meet you

this is why Erica would kill me

Erica fought earlier she's

a friend of mine and I

and I have her back

her Kimbella

who do Kimbella resemble you know I

ain't in it oh you didn't want to be in

it Gemini hey guess what now me me

you're beautiful though but you look

like Erica

[Music]

maybe because we're the same nationality

oh black people don't look the same okay

[Music]

yo that's Erica's sister

[Music]

[Music]

what's up everybody

and you know Erica and Chicana friends

he can move on but this is Erica's

friend everybody make some run some

spice grab me on winning spines

are you surprised at the party at this

point nothing Safari does surprises me

at all Safari stage trying to get under

Erica's skin and then we know Carly has

always been messy but I've never seen

her do anything this disloyal and I'm

having Safari here right now some food

all right I came to Chicago's event

because I'm all about uplifting and

supporting our beautiful strong black

woman right Safari you got a strong

black daughter period I know I ain't

saying he don't support his daughter but

I'm just saying you ain't seen her in a

minute y'all don't know nothing about

two months she can say whatever she want

to say but they ain't gonna say what

happened when I went to go try to get

them I want to do it by myself I don't

want to do it under nobody's watching

somebody acting like I gotta have

somebody supervising me when I'm with my

kids

like some super Come On Son

yeah

so Carly invites me to the group house

to come [ __ ] see what's going on and

then off rip I'm being attacked I don't

think it's fair Erica trying to make it

seem like I'm an absentee father that's

her being hurt I don't feel like I

necessarily need to promote and show hey

look I'm with my kids so I know everyone

is not hearing the full total truth

because I'm not saying anything I'm

keeping everything to myself yeah I'm

triggered by this whole

[Music]

[Music]

is she the only one that is so mental it

is stop with her mentally because she

losing her mind

[Music]

[Music]

people said this moment wouldn't even be

possible

and I did it I made it I came from

humble beginnings and I keep ripping My

slogan from homeless to Greatness so it

feels good I know I'm a huge inspiration

to a lot of women

[Music]

is trying to get my attention spy Spy

dream and baby you can't deny it I came

up in best dressed

better

[Music]

about our relationships as mother and

big battle because I came from a broken

home and I'm trying to break this
