I’ve followed both you and Anita since the start of both careers, I’m 73 yrs of age now!! I hope and going to pray the two of you make amends, I call myself your KZbin Auntie!!

Lmaooooo Chillleeee Jason was throwing them traps and Babyface was playing dodge ball lmaoooo he answered so gracefully and seems so kind and humble. Aside from all the great music he has made and produced, his personality is another major part of him staying relevant and admired throughout all these years. Great episode!!! I also love that Jason always remains his true self no matter who he interviews.

Jason is a shady ass.

Thanks to Mr.Face for having integrity and keeping the conversation on what’s truly important: Music. Messiness is getting old and tired. When you love the craft you are into there is only room for gratitude, growing, exploring and experiences in it.

[@tonishaamos7343]

I agree with you. The main thing I love the most is when he said that God gave him a forgiving heart. As a Christian, that's what God would want us to do.

@tonisha thank you, the Bible speaks on this 2Timothy 3:1-5. In the last days people will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, brag, heartless, Godless, disobedient to Parents. At my 51 yrs of age people try to bully me at work, in the entertainment world, set ups, etc. But these are things I was warned,. Did they not do it to Jesus. Satan is ruling this world, God is allowing him, for his days is limited. Rev says woe for you on earth. But a forever promise is, Rev, 21:3,4. Prov37:29. Righteous, meek ones will posses the earth. God bless, I am a work in progress. Changing little by little for I want to be part of Gods government, Gods kingdom.

The humility and grace of Babyface is something to aim for, seriously. There are people with much less accomplishment who are much more arrogant. His success is a product of his character. Hats off to him for how he navigated the tough questions.

[@shanafehr]

As a few years to be 40 year old born and raised Dominican woman, who grew up listening to ALL sorts of music, who loves and lives for music and has one of the most eclectic tastes in music, I'm here to say that not only I love Babyface and absolutely 100% RESPECT him, I have to say this man is legit the human representation... The embodiment of CLASS. Man I had no idea I could possibly admire this man more, as an icon, one of the most beautiful voices and lyricist of the century, but damn! I am in awe of energy and respectful demeanor and attitude. What a beautiful man! 🤍💐 He is everything and a bag of chips!

[@drmonica]

Babyface has to be the most mature and empathic artist and producer in history. He’s withstanding Jason’s attempts to be messy and Anita’s Twitter rants with so much grace but at the same time he’s obviously saddened and a bit stressed by it. He would’ve fit in nicely on the Tamron show, but I understand his desire to work with gen Z artists drove him here.

[@nwananka]

There is a reason why as an exec with LA FACE, nobody said anything bad about him while attacking the label
