I love coming to this podcast having ZERO idea who the guest is, just to find out that the guest has been involved in so many iconic songs/records. Dope $#!t Storieeeeeeees!
Real music heads/musicians appreciate this cast. Idk how many more would really get it. Maybe people that like Tank and J. But music heads (me) WAIT for these to drop.
I'm just 24 minutes in and I am captivated. There is nothing like an incredible storyteller. I was all invested in learning about how "YEAH" came to be. I'm telling you. This podcast NEVER EVER disappoints!!! Every single guest adds flavor to the smooth, tasty blend that is Tank and J.Valentine. Okay, let me get back to listening.🤭
I hope Keri Hilson is coming up. I'm interested in hearing more about her songwriting and her transition into an artist. I feel like she has some good stories.
I swear, I don't know what I was doing on Saturday mornings before this podcast! I love it here! The more I watch, the more I realize how intertwined the music industry is...J Que can tell a story...you hear me?!?! Happy belated bday J Que! Sidebar, imma need yall to interview Vivian, because for her husband to be on her like that, she needs to teach a master class...ijs
Whew, I don’t know if y’all understand how DOPE this platform is, They are literally interviewing the PEOPLE that “made” the Stars that we listen to, As a Musician I was always intrigued by reading the (Inside)back of CDs to see who did what,(Sung What, Played What) And these Cats are delivering BIG TIME!!
Please understand this episode is getting me through an emotional time. I just lost my sister and the laughs are therapeutic. Thank you guys for contributions to my good and bad days. I love music and I crave the behind the scenes ❤
Tank & J. Valentine have both worked with Keri Hilson. I’d love to see their interaction as a trio, especially with her being a songwriter & vocal producer before becoming a solo artist
How does two hours of time go so quickly? As always amazing conversation and incite into the world of R&B. And the way that man loves on his wife is wonderful to listen to. ❤
I love this interview, had to show my daughter who helped create music for her favorite KPop groups. Yall keep up the good work. And yes we are waiting on Keri to hit the pod!!!
When he said the hair on the back of his neck stands up & j says The Who … tank & jque reaction 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀 I’ve laughed this whole interview omg 😭😭😭😭😭😭
I absolutely loved this interview. I love learning about the behind the scenes. Also, just love the way he tells stories. I felt like I was in the room. AND! AND! AND!! I love Viv! The way this man honored his wife.. you know she’s absolutely freaking amazing!!
I’m surprised but this episode gave me so much joy!! I didn’t know who J.Que Smith was at first but I appreciate his rawness, honesty and advice. Great, great, great episode and I’ll probably watch it again lol
"what you want is to be happy" !! "you gotta figure out ya why" !! "it's an everyday struggle against the things that are trying to take that away from you" #bars
Mr. J. Que, thank you taking the time to come on the R&B Money Podcast to share such an insightful interview on your life and the iconic records you were behind. This is probably my favorite episode since the Warryn Campbell episode. Songs like Yeah, Ice Box, Like A Boy, Avant's 4 Minutes and Bobby V.'s Anonymous (you didn't discuss the last two in the interview, but I looked up your songwriting discography on Discogs and saw you were apart of them) were some of many great R&B records I remember hearing on the radio as I was coming of age that really deepened my love for the genre. I am also appreciate of your works on more recent records, such as: Beyonce's Best Thing I Never Had, Ariana's Baby I, and Tamar's Where It Hurts.
I love when I get to discover the person behind the music. J.Que, was a great interview. This is why I've come to love R&B money podcast, they give you an exclusive behind the music seat. A lot of jewels were dropped in this interview 💯
Yo no lie with the bald head and beard he def woulda be on his Master Roshi shit 😂😂😂... real talk the interview we didnt know we needed but yall knew and its appreciated. So entertaining, inspiring and educational. Once again GREAT pod
Yessssss someone finally gets it. Shawn Stockman!!!!! No shade to Wanye who is a vocal genius but the people just don’t get Shawn. Ughhh love him. Always have loved to hear him gently croon over the notes. ❤❤❤
This episode was hilarious!!!! I learned alot about J. Que, I love the behind the scenes conversations!!!! How does Tank remix the "Top 5" & "Ain't saying no names" songs every episode!!! 🤣
Wow!! J. Que is soooo prolific & wise beyond measure. I will be rewatching this... Tank & J. Valentine - I thank you sooo very much for this podcast. Means so much to the culture & artist like myself 🙏🏿#Gratitude
I was truly blown away by this interview , as a fellow creative the jewels that were dropped with such authenticity priceless ! I'm giving all of the Kings their flowers ! I really love this podcast 💪🏾💜😍🌷
I'm still on my binge, and I've loved EVERY single video! I didn't think I'd have a favorite, but this is my favorite so far! This man is incredible, I love all the tea spilled. I was shocked by all the bull he went through, especially with My Boo; like wtF⁉️ The nusic industry is a trip yo.
@R&Bmoneypodcast , @j.Quesmith. WOW,WOW,WOW!!!!! J.Que , you learned and was able to articulate MASTERFULLY, fame ain’t all that it’s cracked up to be ESPECIALLY if you not built for it! And if you were a little depressed, get famous and you’ll be super (famously) depressed , OMGOSH !!!! BARS,BARS,BARS..This man is speaking about musical therapy and he has earned his doctorate!! Thank you for your honesty. Any creatives listening, you just breath life and longevity into their spirit❤
Always like checking in with you guys. This channel is so amazing. Thank Tank and thank you J Valentine. R&b will never thanks to you especially into anyone that's thinking like you and acting on it. "To R&B"🥂🍾👑💯🙏❣️
This guy wrote so many BANGERS from all over the place! Love how the koreans are keeping r&b alive. I heard the pay is really fair in kpop as well. Amazing interview man love these guys and this podcast fr!
As someone who met J. Que back in 2000 when I was working with Tricky's brother Laney back then, I am so happy to run across this interview as I am circling back to my songwriter/producer bag. This brother is such a good person & hearing his process & history broken down here is so dope.
Always love watching every single interview. I am either taking it information that is inspiring outside of music or I'm about to choke on my iced coffee because I decided I wanted to watch you guys Sunday morning on my drive cracking up. Tank has his way of bringing complete joy and spirit lifting with singing and laughter. J brings great questions Great logical perspective of answering questions. These two together are the perfect yin and yang. A constant fan of this podcast and I hope that this podcast continues until the wheels fall off
I'm so glad this got reposted because this is by far one of the Top 3 episodes. As a K-Pop fan and to hear him talk about NCT, I have the biggest grin! Great Episode RnB Money Team🤗
Thank you R & B Money for continuing to bring guests to the couch conversations that are great story tellers. This podcast deserves some awards for the knowledge being dropped. Yet another creator that I'm not familiar with but learned and loved hearing their journey.
I’ve been contemplating about watching the past couple of days because I didn’t know his credits in the music industry but I’m glad I watched. I’ve always respected writers and love hearing the background of a song. I had no idea his voice was on “My Boo” and he made me laugh a few times 😂. Another great episode.
Y’all’s reaction to him bringing out his tag had me dying over here..y’all fools crazy man! This was an amazing episode, he had some of the most epic stories lowkey..great guest
J. Que just confirmed for me that I have absolutely great taste in music and song writers with his Top 20,000. When I made my lists, I realized I just made a list of Babyface's music.
I have a few pods in my rotation that I like to spread out and listen to through the week, and this is the only one that I have to listen to immediately 🙌🏾 Always such a great conversation, Tank and J and truly goated 🙌🏾
I always feel like I'm listening to private, but funny conversations when you guys interview people you are close with. Thanks for taking us along for the ride. ❤
Life got in the way of me being current on my Saturday morning blessing but I am finally caught up. In addition to the gems dropped on this podcast weekly, I love the camaraderie this podcast highlights amongst Black men, which is not talked about enough. Every week we hear the same names supporting, celebrating, and amplifying each other. I am going to say it again..."Podcast of the year."
BAMA LET’S GOOOOOO!!! I love this episode, what gems J. Que drops throughout especially at the end!!! 💚✨💚✨💚✨”success is a series of good decisions” meaning it’s up to you!!! Tank switching up the Top 5 intro every time is POD GOLD!!! 🙌🏽💯😂 I love y’all.
