Welcome to Karen Hunter's awesome.

I'm Karen Hunter, and this week I am focused on walking, taking steps.

Today, I was scrolling and I found a clip from a podcast. It is called the R&B Money podcast. We started by

Jay Valentine, Johnny Valentine, Newt, who was a songwriter. Most notably, he wrote songs for

Tupac posthumously, his album, Still Out Rise, and until the end of time, he wrote those. He, of course, is always with Tyrese.

He also is a frequent collaborator with Tank, who is his co-host in the R&B Money podcast. So in this

particular episode, I think it's episode 158, they are sitting down with the great, the illustrious Jill Scott. And she said something,

well, he actually asked her a question. Matter of fact, take a listen. You go back to a long walk.

To me, that is the greatest date song of ever. All time to me. Thank you. That because it's

simplifies. So dope.

It simplifies life.

And it's something that I had paid attention to as I actually gotten older.

And I realized that the verses that you were talking about are from the Bible and from the

Corolla.

And I think that went over a lot of people's heads. For many, many, many years.

You know, I was just like, oh, she really wants to sit and learn with you.

And that is something different than can you take me to Ruth Chris?

Or fly me to the Bahamas to be whatever I'm going to be for this week.

Dates are nice.

It's a day.

Let's go on a long walk.

We should be exchanging some real information.
