00:00What is up my man, how you doing?
00:04What's going on bro, how you feeling?
00:06Look man, always looking like a stylish, like a million bucks, but um, you have a number one.
00:11I do man, it's been about 13, 14 years since I had a number one record.
00:16Hey, what's up man?
00:18Hey man.
00:20That's what's up. Let's do it.
00:24Love that.
00:26So Spin My Life was your anniversary song?
00:28That's what's up, that's what's up.
00:32What's up, what's up?
00:34Are you freaking kidding me?
00:36Yeah, you look a little grainy, but I'm sure that's not your complexion.
00:40Oh there we go, there we go.
00:42How you doing?
00:44Oh my God.
00:46What's up, your husband just told me that my song was your anniversary song.
00:52I'm so sorry I haven't told him, it's like my favorite song.
00:56That's what's up.
01:00A break from the plane?
01:04Well look, I just want to say thank you, that means a lot, that means a lot to me.
01:08It was Spin My Life.
01:10Oh my God.
01:12Can I just see you every morning when I open my eyes?
01:18Oh my boy just got here.
01:22That's beautiful.
01:24Wow.
01:26That's beautiful.
01:28That's why 13 years later you got another number one.
01:3213 years later man, I got a number one song and actually it's on my label, JBR.
01:38And check this out, I started the label with the A&R person who gave me my first record deal.
01:44So we own the record label, we're signing new artists now, my single number one.
01:50So it's just blessings.
01:52It's a good moment.
01:54Number one is with Tamar Braxton.
01:56I saw that.
01:58It's something we can make love to.
02:00Stream it.
02:02You gotta pick the right song when you're making love.
02:04It's not easy to pick the right song.
02:06You can go too hard and ruin the mood, like man this is too much.
02:08Absolutely.
02:10Or you can go too slow.
02:12That's your golden rule?
02:14I don't want to get hurt in that situation.
