Backstage here at the Forbes BLK Summit here in Atlanta and I am joined by the

beautiful Fantasia. Thank you so much. You just got off stage, rocked it,

killed it, the energy the crowd loves you what

does you think of the event how you liking it I think that you guys should keep

this going forever and ever and ever thank you it allows people to come in and be educated. It feels free. The room

felt really free. So I thought I was going to be nervous but then I got out there

and then speaking with you, you may call that go away. It felt like I was just talking to a friend, a cousin, another, my brother.

And we are encouraging, inspiring, and just sharing information that we probably wouldn't share in certain rooms that we can share in this.

Absolutely.

And listen, I want to say congratulations to you

because the world probably knows by now

when this video comes out, but Hollywood Walk of Fame,

I mean the emotion is there I know is just hit. don't want to get you crying but you know what do you think you're going to feel in that moment when you're out there in Hollywood fans around as you maybe celebrities who would come out just to praise you how you think you going to feel? I don't know but I will say

this Jay and by the way he's my brother now so I call him Jay. I appreciate it. I say this I want to

show them that how a girl from around the way can get a star and

still show up and be an around away girl if that makes any sense you know like

it's a big thing to have, but I want people to see that you can experience

big things without changing who you are.

You understand, like, that feels even better for me to go and do that and

and be out in Hollywood which right up the street is where I won it was at the time I

think it was the Kodak theater they changed name now, but I won there so I keep

saying these full circle moments. I worked with Jimmy Jam when I was probably about 18 before idle.
