I didn't believe that it happened. 740 00:28:18,341 --> 00:28:20,710 So the very first meeting, I just thought 741 00:28:20,810 --> 00:28:22,712 that these two were trying to just scam me 742 00:28:22,812 --> 00:28:25,081 -for, like, Tonight Show tickets or whatever. -(laughs) 743 00:28:25,181 --> 00:28:26,516 That's what I thought it was. 744 00:28:26,616 --> 00:28:30,253 And then they came by the next week with a hard drive, 745 00:28:30,353 --> 00:28:32,822 and even then I was like, "Well, the footage must be bad, 746 00:28:32,923 --> 00:28:35,458 -or maybe Stevie had an off day, or..." -Right, right, right. 747 00:28:35,559 --> 00:28:38,128 And everything I saw was magic. 748 00:28:38,228 --> 00:28:40,030 And... 749 00:28:40,130 --> 00:28:41,765 To this day... 750 00:28:41,831 --> 00:28:43,333 The-the reason why... 751 00:28:43,433 --> 00:28:46,236 Even when I agreed to do this, 752 00:28:46,336 --> 00:28:49,839 at first I was just gonna compile, like, 17 songs. 753 00:28:49,940 --> 00:28:51,775 -Yes. Right. -What, like a mixtape. 754 00:28:51,875 --> 00:28:53,243 You know, that sort of thing. 755 00:28:53,343 --> 00:28:55,278 But the curiosity 756 00:28:55,378 --> 00:28:59,216 kept burning me inside that, like... 757 00:28:59,316 --> 00:29:03,553 The question I asked is, "Is Black erasure this easy?" 758 00:29:03,653 --> 00:29:05,555 And that's the thing. I think oftentimes, 759 00:29:05,655 --> 00:29:08,625 when, you know, when we speak of, like, Black Lives Matter 760 00:29:08,792 --> 00:29:12,262 or, uh, you know, is that racist or not racist, 761 00:29:12,362 --> 00:29:14,798 I think people think of the most extreme definition of it. 762 00:29:14,898 --> 00:29:16,399 Like, in their minds, they're saying, 763 00:29:16,499 --> 00:29:19,469 "Well, I've never once hung somebody to a cross 764 00:29:19,569 --> 00:29:21,404 -or castrated them or set them on fire." -Right, right. Mm-hmm. 765 00:29:21,504 --> 00:29:24,541 "So I'm not racist." But there's other... 766 00:29:24,641 --> 00:29:26,643 There's benign levels of racism, as well. 767 00:29:26,743 --> 00:29:30,313 And even as sort of the-the... 768 00:29:30,413 --> 00:29:32,949 sort of the dismissal of like, 769 00:29:33,049 --> 00:29:35,085 "Well, we'll pass." 770 00:29:35,185 --> 00:29:37,520 You know? "We're good." 771 00:29:37,621 --> 00:29:39,990 For a lot of people, their first view of us 772 00:29:40,090 --> 00:29:41,825 was either in blackface 773 00:29:41,925 --> 00:29:45,662 or mired in trouble or controversy 774 00:29:45,762 --> 00:29:48,031 -or, you know, getting arrested, getting hosed down. -Mm-hmm. 775 00:29:48,131 --> 00:29:51,535 And... But Black joy is the component 776 00:29:51,635 --> 00:29:54,905 that shows that we're human. 777 00:29:55,005 --> 00:29:56,573 You know?
