Hold on, Sophia. Did you just say they lost everything after becoming a millionaire?
That's right. And it gets worse. It's a narrating too much drama week on the OK Storytime podcast. So we'll find out soon. This person writes, I just inherited a fortune after losing my mom, and now my girlfriend's entire family is coming out of nowhere with their hands out.

Chapter 2: How did Ari Lennox's experiences shape her music career?
I do that, too. Yes. You gotta get the peak in. Are you the kind of person, because obviously you're a singer as well, like, when you get on the treadmill or whenever you're running, you, like, sing while you do it to help with your breath? Hell no. Oh, okay. Breath control. I need to, though, because I be out of breath. I'm a walrus on the stage. But, yeah, at the gym, there's people around.
So that would be really weird. To be... Hey, bud. You know what I'm... Baby. No. No tipping now. Well, no, I say that because, you know, when we go on tour, I be out of breath on stage, and all I be doing is cracking jokes. And I be like, yeah, I just start laughing. I ain't even finished what I said yet, but I be out of breath, girl. I don't know what to do.
I mean, the breath control is important. I definitely be out of breath on stage a little bit, too. I mean, probably not now. This tour that we're about to go on, I'll probably be better because I've been working out consistently. Thank you. But, yeah, a few years ago... Yes. We was definitely out of breath.
Oh. But we gonna get better.
We gonna get better. Okay, so I want to start from the beginning with you. You know, you're from D.C., right?
Yeah, yeah.
So talk about growing up in D.C. and, like, your background in singing. Were you, like, the kid that was always around the house singing, singing in church? Like, when did you know, like, okay, I'm really good at this? So I was born in D.C. I grew up in Chantilly and Ashburn, Virginia.
Okay.
And I haven't been back since elementary. I've never been back... Yeah, and then after that, I was in D.C. for Brent Elementary School in Hine. And then for high school, I went to Coolidge, School Without Walls, Duke Ellington. Okay. Wilson and Theodore Roosevelt. And I would... leave each school every time I was about to get jumped. Why are you the one to fight you?

That's the South.
Virginia Beach. Okay.
So you should consider that area the South.
I've been doing the numbers, so I know. Okay. Okay. I just always felt like... I think it's interesting when people are never like... hiding who they wanted to be or their dreams. Because, like, I used to walk around embarrassed being like, oh, my gosh, I want to be on a talk show and stuff.
So I always think it's amazing when people are just like, oh, this is who I am and this is what I want to do. So talk about, you know, you graduating and that transfer into, like, adulthood and what that was like. Yeah, barely graduating. Oh, my God, it was bad. Oh, yeah. I think they just didn't want me to come back, so they let me get the diploma.
Are you serious?
Yeah, I think Theodore was like, go on, like, get out. Go on, get it. Yeah, I got suspended, and I couldn't even go to my prom. You was bad already. Why you got suspended? I cursed the teacher out.

I was like a puppy, like super aloof, like a fish, like super aloof until, I don't know, something happened out of nowhere when I turned 30 that, oh shit, I have to grow up. But I never had that fear of turning 30. But it's so, when I hear people talk about it, yeah, it resonates with me because I just was out of it. I don't know where I was. Just deep in the,
drink or something you know like yeah yeah wow i think that speaks to your intelligence and a lot of people's intelligence my friend my home girl was talking about this too just fearing um turning 30 but yeah i wasn't thinking i don't think i was there really mentally at all Girl, yeah, I just, I don't know. I just felt like I was just going to be old as fuck.
And my life was going to be like halfway over. Like I was just so terrified to turn 30. Like I just thought 20s were so lit. And then same thing with me, similar to what you said. It was like when I turned 30, I feel like this switch just went off in my life. I just realized it's just beginning actually. Like things actually started to get way better for me when I turned 30.
Those last few years of my 20s was real get up. Oh, yes, ma'am. Super. Yeah, a few years ago. She was ghetto a few years ago.
A few months ago?
Okay, let's talk about it. I was trying to give the people in their 20s a little hope. You still ghetto. Yeah. But also, I'll say that 50-year-olds are looking at 30s like, oh, baby, like, you young. You know what I'm saying? 70-year-olds, 80-year-olds, oh, please, child. Like, y'all young as hell. Yeah.

Yes, we will talk about the style and the success, but we are also talking about the pressure, the expectations, and the real work with the women shaping culture right now.
As a woman in the industry, you're always underestimated. So you have to work extra hard and you have to push the narrative in a way that doesn't compromise who you are and your integrity. You know, I like to say I was kind of like a silent ninja.

They need to separate it, too. Nervous motherfuckers, take y'all ass over there. Not they need a nervous TSA line. Nervous lane. And the people who know what they doing go to the right.
But they kind of do have that. Do they? I feel like that's what pre-check is.
