I was blessed to be able to donate my kidney to my wife in 2013 and it has added a level to our marriage I can’t explain. God is good. Great episode and health needs to be addressed in our community. Health is wealth. Don’t waste it. Love your Pod.
Watching the premiere on Saturday morning. Feels like waking up on Saturday morning to catch cartoons when we were kids. Lol I wake up. Looking forward to it.
As a healthcare professional, I love this episode. I truly appreciate the grown man conversations around wellness and the vulnerability from Mr. Kennedy. Your health is your wealth. Blessings.
I was diagnosed with CKD and then renal failure in 2015. I was on dialysis for 6-7 years. I received my transplant in 2022 and now I’m back to my first love music. To whoever is going through this, don’t give up. Follow what the dr says but listen to your body. 🤲🏾
I swear every time I hear J laugh, it makes my day 🤣🤣🤣. He will laugh and hit you with a gem to make you think . I love this dynamic, hopefully we will see y’all on the television with this commentary!!! Love it!!!
My brother is a musician, on dialysis and on the transplant list. He did peritoneal dialysis for about 2yrs and now on hemodialysis. He sings opera and is on the voice faculty at an HBCU! Praying for a living donor soon!
This is my cousin and he’s an amazing musician, composer, and businessman. Was a pleasure hanging out in high school at Paseo high School of Performing Arts. One of the reason I became a music producer. He’s definitely my inspiration
Brian Kennedy really did some of my favorite deep cuts: *If This Isn’t Love* and *My Heart* for Jennifer Hudson. *My Love* for Ciara. *FIRE BOMB* and *Get It Over With* for Rihanna. Like literally some of their best work.
This was an exciting episode to watch With a mixture of fun packed stories and business insights in the music bizness. This special Guest shared an incredible Journey.. Without the platform of R&B money we might not have heard this gentlemans story. The handsome warm, talk hosts duo of Tank and J. are on top form. This is highly recommended viewing🎉🎉🎉
This was such a needed episode!! Thank you for making the space for, not only his musical history, but also his health and awareness. Healing and blessings to you all. 🙌🏾❤️🙌🏾
If your not watching this podcast, what are you doing with your life especially those trying to break into the industry. I have learned so much I need to grab me guitar or something!
Hey Jay, you gotta understand I’m born and raised in St. Louis. East St. Louis and St. Louis are two different places.. it’s a bridge that separate us, and a state that separated. We had beef for years. When Bro said, “how did Nelly come out before y’all” saved his life lol
This was one of the best one's I've seen. So informational. I can't believe I haven't heard of this dude being from Kansas as well, but lived in California for a long time now and as a song writer/producer myself trying to get records placed.
Great interview and what an amazing story. Perfect time to share such an impactful story as April is National Donate Life Month! #blueandgreen #NDLM Continues blessings and using your voice to advocate!
I LOVE R & B MONEY Podcast!!! I AGREE WITH THE PIANO TEACHERS "THEIR" LESSON PLAY AND EXPECTING THE CHILDREN TO ABIDE. BECAUSE, IT EXPOSES CHILDREN TO INFORMATION THAT WILL BE USEFUL IN THE FUTURE!!! AND, I AM OLD SCHOOL CHILDREN DO NOT KNOW WHAT'S BEST FOR THEM. I was forced to listen to Rock, Pop, and Country music because really no Black Radio where I grew up. But, I am very grateful because I was exposed to all genres of music. As a child I would listened to SOUL MUSIC only.
Young people ( heck people in general) listen to this man. He dressed for the job he wanted at the Hyatt, and he presented himself in a way in which the doors opened up for him. It’s not fake to present yourself in a way that is palatable for you to soar. “The other thing, I remember when I didn’t shoot you” is wild 😂😂😂😂😂. Idk who this man is but based on his interview, it is clear he’s gifted and it made a way. This was the second best interview because of the life and business gems he shared. Bottom line, Health is wealth. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 There are several treatment modalities for kidney failure:- Home hemodialysis, Periotoneal, kidney transplantation and incenter hemodialysis. Be an active participant on your treatment team. The two main causes for kidney failure is uncontrolled hypertension and diabetes. Ok I’m done now 🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃😝.
FINALLY someone including the QUEEN ANITA in their Voltron!!! I’m still waiting for someone to include Sade or D’Angelo. Including them would be a cheat code! 🤎 Tank and J, get Maxwell or D’Angelo on the show!
I stopped the video to listen to Brandy "when you touch me" song to hear "this great production" the two of you spoke of: 4 BARS IN , I WAS GIVING THE STANK FACE! ooowee they did that! I will carry on. Great interview, thanks for exposing us to the giants behind the scenes. TANK & J
This podcast is everywhere at once in a educationally great way. Tying in health awareness by discussing mental and emotional health in music and in one's personal life is a topic that hopefully continues in the future. I'm hoping that J and Tank will definitely keep their word to be in the health awareness platforms for the future of all things R&B Music. Thank you Brian Kennedy for being strong enough to open up about it in a comfortable space with brothers who truly care. Thank the powers above for keeping you here with us!!
"You want some eggs?"... 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 @RnBMoneyPodcast Thank you again for another great episode. I need yall on that Iheart podcast awards list 2025. 😁... Countdown to the 100th episode... Can't wait!... (I vote G all day...)
This is crazy… my mom is 75 and in renal failure and heart failure and she also refused dialysis. She was advised by a nurse to change her diet and she has been able to avoid dialysis since her diagnosis last September. I love Brian’s story of music and his health journey. By the way My Love is one of my favorite Ciara songs!
I rarely hear anyone in the creative community say that "I do it to pour into the people" I've tried to explain that as a poet&writer that I'm not here for the adoration of my peers. I'll hand over every piece I've written if I knew that intention would be the end result.
Lmao I aint going to lie I am the same way. I come in hot all the time and my friends always got to tell people I am not friendly 🤣. But all in all this episode was amazing. Brian Kennedy is extremely talented and gifted. His story is very inspiring. Great episode y'all 🔥🔥
I bought a cd in front of California Pizza Kitchen on the plaza! It was the Christmas album! The BEST Christmas Album I’ve ever heard to date!!! The green eyed girl that used to work at the Peach Tree singing “ tell me what is Christmas …” still takes me out! Loved that whole cd! ❤ bring it back! Lol! Seriously tho!
Appreciate the health n wellness information I received today. I am loving the approach Tank & J are taking to ensure we are getting everything R&B. Luv this podcast immensely!
That "pow" in the top 5 song took me tF out! 😂😂 Tank you are a FOOL! And J's laugh doesn't help lol, I was hollering. Ya'll ninjas are too funny! Brian Kennedy is amazingly talented, another great episode. ❤😊💚
Omg!! I love watching yall every day! If I'm happy or if I'm having a bad day this is where I come to. Yall be making me laugh so hard and Tank had me crying when he was doing those wrestling voices. 😂😂😂
Okay I am back with another kudos for the top 5 song. At the end I totally wanted to sing.. "A dream is a wish your heart makes...".. And I was looking at the Disney dreamers academy contest when it came on, looking for the pixie dust to fall from the ceiling... 😆 @TheRealTank can do no wrong on those keys for me... 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Real love for this show, but I have a question where is K Jon? You guys should have K Jon on the show! ❤ This was a great episode, and thank you all for bringing up all matters of the talent, heart, and health.
Great interview but I lost it when Tank start going into his Hulk and Macho Man🤣🤣… That took me ALL the way back “Creeeam of the CROP!” All I needed was a Ric Flair “Whoo!” 🤣🤣🤣
Renal health is so important. At 14 i was diagnosed with a rare autoimmune diseases Wegeners granulomatosis. That lead to my kidneys shutting down. I went on dialysis and suffered seizures from the nurses removing too much fluid from my body during sessions. I went on in home dialysis which led to a build up of calcium in my body that caused calcium deposits. That caused my legs to be amputated at 18. About 10 years later i would go on to develop lymphoma as a result of the kidney transplant i received at 18 as well. I’m healthy now. Kidney is still going strong almost 16 years later. I’ve been cancer free for over 6 years. I say all this to say get you checkups. Dont ignore those little aches and pains and abnormal shit that comes in goes. Early detection of these things saves lives
God is so intentional .. our gifts make room for us .. to make room for our purpose to expand God's kingdom. God will "interrupt" our plans , never stripping the gift though, to advance us in Him. like .... yeah.
I was blessed to be able to donate my kidney to my wife in 2013 and it has added a level to our marriage I can’t explain. God is good. Great episode and health needs to be addressed in our community. Health is wealth. Don’t waste it. Love your Pod.

"Did you know Jay was 136 years old"😆
Watching the premiere on Saturday morning. Feels like waking up on Saturday morning to catch cartoons when we were kids. Lol I wake up. Looking forward to it.

“I’ve got hits but I need to heal” That spoke to my core…. Wow

As a healthcare professional, I love this episode. I truly appreciate the grown man conversations around wellness and the vulnerability from Mr. Kennedy. Your health is your wealth. Blessings.

Kevin Ross needs to be on the show. He is so fire and he captures the essence of R&B

And which one do you think was the best? I have an idea, just curious.
@@seriouslyshirleynot best per se, but resonated with me the Hyatt section, the Valencia* sections. Shirley, what resonated with you?
We have lost so many people. Good health is very important. I appreciate this episode.
❤
Such a necessary episode. Loved every minute of it!
The Murder Dance Story has took the place of Craziest story from the previous Titleholder of Case’s Neck Story… 🎉😂
Aww man that case story was crazy I can't wait til I hear his omg I'm excited 😂
I do the murder dance 💀🤣🤣
😅❤ And then Tanks top 5 song, when he said "pow", culmao took me out! 😂

The East St. Louis Story from this episode, the Case shooting story and the Justine Skye breakup story are top three for me 😂
Thank you Brian Kennedy ❤
I wish he had shared how his dad felt knowing he had the number one and two song on the charts. I know he was proud!
This was a great interview. You never know what people are going through while achieving success. Side bar: Tank’s wrestler voice is wild 😂😂😂😂
Yeah it is 😂😂😂
FINALLY someone including the QUEEN ANITA in their Voltron!!! I’m still waiting for someone to include Sade or D’Angelo. Including them would be a cheat code! 🤎
Tank and J, get Maxwell or D’Angelo on the show!
This conversation was very important and I’m glad the guest was candid about his health issues
I stopped the video to listen to Brandy "when you touch me" song to hear "this great production" the two of you spoke of: 4 BARS IN , I WAS GIVING THE STANK FACE! ooowee they did that! I will carry on. Great interview, thanks for exposing us to the giants behind the scenes. TANK & J
I did too because someone always brings up that song and it is great
Thank you once again R&B team for a great interview.

Wow this was a deep needed episode 👏👏👏
