Get it. The Birch Show.

You'd be hard pressed to find a bigger record producer than Babyface.

So we were all a little shocked when he decided to stop by the Bert Show for a little visit.

When Baby Face walked in here early, believe it or not, we were all just kind of sitting around the mic's waiting for him.

He gets in here early, and there was no formal beginning to the interview. He was so unassuming. I mean, just he himself was so unassuming, which is probably one of the nicest things you can say about somebody anyway, you know, especially a big star like that. Usually, you know, someone will sit down and I'll turn the mics on and I'll introduce everybody. Right. And he'll say hi to every one of us individually. And they'll expect this big introduction, this formal introduction as well. It wasn't like that with Babyface though. So here's the interview and it starts off kind of weird because it's really just all sitting around just chat. We're trying to stay as far away from you as possible. Mikes are just set up like this. Sorry. Do you watch MTV at all? Yeah. Do you?

Do you?

She was on the Seattle cast of the real world. The slap. She was the one with Lyme disease. No, don't make me out to be that girl. I wasn't that girl. She was. She got slapped. Is it hard having Lyme disease? Well, right, I went through that whole ordeal on the girl's

lime disease. I had been jogging and I was taking off my clothes. That's another thing when you have Lyme disease. You just start, you just start taking clothes off when you have Lyme disease. Yeah, I had a tick embedded right in my boob, excuse me, my, you know, after, right after I got back and it was really like the feet were still in and I freaked out.

I flipped out because I lived in the mountains.

When's the last time you started an interview off talking about a tick on a woman's boob? That's never having, probably never will happen again. Yeah. I'm thinking this is a first. But I'll remember it, though. You will. You'll remember the. Before you got in here, I was just looking at the names of people that you've collaborated or

you've produced and the list just i mean it took me like 13 pages to print out the entire list

there's paula abdul there's mary j blage brandy tony braxton boys to men maria carey er Clapton, and Vogue, Aretha Franklin, some woman named Whitney Houston, Gladys Knight, this chick named Madonna, she's a real up-and-comer.

She's going to be really good one day.

Yeah, she's got something there.

Vanessa Williams.

My first question is going to be like one of music 101 I gotta be honest with you baby face I have no idea what producing a single means

there's there's different kinds of producers I'm a producer musician so I'll cut the music

as well as a um kind of guide the singer.

Who's ever the artist while they're in there behind the mic, I kind of help guide them.

And so it's kind of like having a consultant.

It's kind of a consultant, but you're really there for the artist.

So when it's time for you to perform and you have a producer on the other side of the glass,
