Stop.
I'm serious. It was either called Seven or... Let's be honest, you know nothing about love. Maybe I'll call the deluxe that.
The story of everyone's life, right? It's like, we know love, of course. I know great love. I'm blessed to be a mother and have wonderful family and friends and things like that. So I know what love is. But if I was to give advice on romantic love to my children... I'm going to vote for the golden retriever. I'm sorry. You got to be best friends.
I think you have to have an authentic, true friendship. It's about partnership. You know, forget all the other stuff. It's about partnership. But also stay you, man. Stay you. Yeah. And listen to your friends.
Your gut is always right. The little voice in your head that tells you, and this is not even this like, and this is past relationship, but the little voice.
Yeah.
I don't know why. Why are we always like. But that's like we gaslight ourselves. I have a song actually, I think I'm going to put on my deluxe called Gaslight.
yeah another album title was red flags oh my god too relatable i'll take these um so anyways yeah so gaslight we gaslight ourselves in a way you know what i mean because it's like boom boom boom boom oh it's yeah it's like an echo chamber can you share like how do you get your confidence back after a breakup oh Me? Kind of like exercise and going out. I started to go out a lot after my breakup.
I was ready. Because it was such a long, dwindling breakup. But by the end, I was like, okay, I'm dating now. This is awesome. All the ending stuff. And then I... Yeah, just went out and had fun. And just I think I like really found a lot of joy in like dressing up again and like clothing and fashion.
And yeah, because I think I was like really kind of wearing like a mommy uniform for like three years. What was your mom? My place was a block away from the Target.
Okay, I do remember taking my teenager on a tour. Of Target? Of a university. She was shopping for universities out in California. My shirt was nice, but it would look like a tablecloth because it was blue and white checkers, but it wasn't even a flattering cut. Okay. And I didn't have time to shop, so I would just grab like whatever I saw. Nothing against Target, but like- I love Target.
Yeah, yeah. Target's fun. You can find great stuff, but I think that I didn't diversify. Got it. I wasn't really like, I didn't have time. I didn't have time. I didn't have time. Or I just wore stuff that was baggy, which is totally normal. Like I breastfed all my kids.
Of course you're going to, you need-
easy access so you just weren't feeling yourself as much and then once you got through the breakup you're like you know what I'm gonna like start putting my cute outfits on I'm gonna do my glam I'm gonna get out there I'm gonna go have fun well the studio helped me too so I started going to the studio and I started writing I started recording music again and I got so many emotions out oh my god I got so many emotions out of the studio I would cry in there I would get angry in there
it was so good for me such a good therapy wait is it is it true that you actually wrote like 400 songs I did yeah Nelly can you just like rewind and tell me like how like if this house was my studio what I would do is I would adjust like we're in LA today so I'd be like who's in LA today which are my friends are in LA which producers which writers which friends and that's what informed this album this album is really just like a let's party type of album because I
I was getting over a breakup and I was like, my social life became the studio. So like, you know, like I, I, you know, I don't, I wasn't in the mood to like go away and write songs by myself on a guitar. It was like, no, we're bringing everybody in. I would invite like people after their concerts to come hang out and make music with me. Yeah. And then my daughter was really coaching me on too.
Cause she was having fun in there too. So it was like, we're making music now. We're, we're, we're, we're doing, we're this like really cooking now and like really having fun.
I like to stay up late making music till really late. So like the sun comes up and I get really inspired and I get my bongo drawn. Just joking. picturing you in there with a bongo drum like let's go let's go my djembe and I just go till seven no but it's pretty much yeah we just like a bunch of music we just have fun and um the way I pick the songs oh my god it's almost like
I always say, like, you put flowers together at a flower shop. It's like, why do you like those flowers, right? And I think it's also, like, whatever goes together. And it's, like, a bit like a fashion collection, just kind of putting it together. I love it. One session I had had, like, a bunch of different people who, like, didn't even necessarily make music.
Like, I think at one time, like, a comedian ended up in there, this girl. And I was like, oh, what you got? Like, I'm very, like, I'm a hippie that way. Like, if you were there, I would make you sing. No. Yes. I believe anybody can write a song. I've done that before. I've done like art shows.
