9: 07 a.m. Good Morning Tracy Butler, Is Chicago having a "Wizard of Oz" weather day?
Sigh, you know what happens when I pray. I am noticing how the weather has changed extremely since that library (data center) opened! Anyways, one day check in on Chicago.
I love Vegas!!! They showed me so much support yesterday, for the first time I felt the love! I felt appreciated, most of all everybody is paying attention!
10 a.m. PRICE IS RIGHT
11:01 a.m. — “CANDY” 🍬 Here we go with Tyler Perry, who I will never forgive for how he slandered my name and image. #Keisha
You did ALL of that just to be wrong as two left feet! 😂
Okay, it’s time for Name That Tune! 🎶🎬
When I’m not working, I’m streaming 365 Black. It plays all the good Black movies I love to watch. ❤️🖤
Now, let’s see who’s paying attention…
“Madea Family Funeral” did you see Mike??? 👀😂
11:04 a.m. Please be advised: this is not Chris Brown’s tour. I can put in a request, but this is Usher’s show, and Chris does not control the lineup or production. Usher is simply using his access and connections to accommodate fans. I can understand why some people may be confused.
Honestly, I stopped watching a long time ago. 😂
They’re on their way to Chicago, so hopefully Bionce Foxx will have the honor of being the host. 🎤
Now, excuse me I’m a day behind on my assignments, and I have TONS of work to complete! 📚💻
And just for the record: I can hear just fine! 😂👂🏾
Now I’m debating whether I should accept the invitation to the 2026 iHeartRadio Music Festival, taking place Friday, September 18 and Saturday, September 19, 2026. 🎶✨
Decisions, decisions… 🤔
11:17 a.m. Dre and Snoop… nope, never mind. 😂 You already know that’s me, so stop playing!
And before somebody says something I’m not texting because I’m typing. There is a difference! 😂⌨️
Well… FYI, I do NOT respond to Ice Cube. 🤷🏾♀️
Now, you tell me why? 👀😂
11:21 a.m. I know you like to give everyone else credit, but let me see who actually remembers the history. 😂
Who can name the rap tune I sang background vocals on for Da Brat? 🎤👀
Oh my… you keep forgetting that Helen Wooten was her godmother AND mine. ❤️
In fact, when Helen moved into the building on Crandon, Da Brat aka Shaunnie and I were the only ones who helped her move into that building.
Now tell me do you know the name of the rap song I sang background on?
Ask her! 😂 She should know.
And she should also be making an appearance in Chicago. 🎤
But let me make this clear one more time: this is NOT Chris Brown’s show. This is an Usher concert. Please stop mixing up the artists! 😂
Now… who knows the song? 🎶👀
11:33 a.m. Jay don't be disrespectful, no response needed!!!
11:35 a.m. This is a SETUP! 😂 Most definitely a preplanned call-in sheet. I hope you’re collecting those “tips” in the booth! 💰🎤
Good Morning, New Edition! 🎶❤️
Now, I’m trying to import leads into my CRM, and y’all are over here distracting me! 😂📊💻
I have work to do!
Happy Birthday, Biv!!! 🎂🎉🎤
11:57 a.m. Crazy Howard McGhee… hey baby! 😂 Where is your sister Kim?
For those of you who don't know, Kim and I hustled together at Tony Blair's Beeper Shop. Now this is crazy! 😂📟
I refuse to answer this phone! 📵 I am literally trying to build my CRM, and y'all keep distracting me!
So, what does CRM mean?
CRM = Customer Relationship Management.
It is the combination of strategies, practices, and software a business uses to manage relationships and interactions with current and potential customers.
Think of it as my business's digital command center for my leads and clients. 📊💻
I'm loading all of the leads I've created into my CRM so I can organize:
- 📋 Contact information
- 📞 Phone numbers
- 📧 Email addresses
- 🏢 Companies
- 👤 Decision-makers
- 📝 Notes
- 📅 Follow-ups
- 💰 Sales opportunities
- 📬 Email campaigns and newsletters
- 🧾 Invoices
- 🤝 Client relationships
I am currently building a prospecting database of 250+ potential clients that I want to convert into contracts and recurring business.
Lead generation is my specialty. Now I'm putting the systems behind it so I can actually manage all these opportunities. 💼📈
And I'm not going to lie… I REALLY want to jump up, run to the store, grab some fresh fruits and vegetables, and make some fresh-pressed juice! 🍎🥬🥕🍊
But after yesterday?
I'm stuck in this seat! 😂
Back to work. These leads aren't going to import themselves!
12:05 pm Sweet Love, how is Diandre calling in??? No comment!!!
12:10 pm Movie Answer: "SOUL FOOD"...
Sunday's Soul Food, Catering & Concessions...Final Answer!!!
You just made me cry now I am ready to cook...
I knew I should not have answered this phone!
12:14 p.m. Please excuse me, but I am not allowed to speak to Jay, who somehow manages to make my life entirely too complicated. 😂
Sir, you are married. I often ask Chris, “If Jay isn't satisfied with Beyoncé, what exactly could I possibly give him?”
No thank you! 😂✋🏾
Now excuse me, sir you have WAY too many MF problems, and this bitch ain't one of them. 😂
Kelly, please come get your son's father! 👀😂 I see how y'all share!
And as for the rest of it, I respectfully decline to answer. Betray me once? Lesson learned. Betray me again? Absolutely not.
And Lisa… girl, bye. 👋🏾
Never again.

12:44 p.m. CRM Comparison: Salesforce vs. HubSpot 📊💻
Salesforce HANDS DOWN! 😂
I’m trying to convert my contacts into an actual client list, and I have to be honest: HubSpot is confusing me! 🤦🏾♀️
Maybe I’m just a shameless Salesforce fan, but Salesforce makes more sense to me when it comes to organizing contacts, managing leads, tracking opportunities, and turning prospects into actual clients.
So here I am…
Starting all over! 😩😂
Back to importing, organizing, cleaning up, and building my client database. Because having 250+ leads is great—but turning those leads into paying clients and contracts is the real goal. 💰📈
Salesforce wins this round. 🏆
12:47 p.m. FYI: I know you probably missed this update, but let me make it clear I do NOT respond to Michael, Janet, or anybody from the Jackson family.
I sincerely apologize, but I am not talking to the dead. I’m not acting delusional, and there is absolutely nothing I need to say to her or them.
I have no interest in idolizing anybody, especially when the situation is surrounded by bullshit and unnecessary drama.
Respectfully, I’m not engaging. ✋🏾
15 minute Break
12:56 p.m. Hey, AVANT! 😂 Now you know Lynette is married! Don't be over there making Bobby jealous!
And yes, for those who don't know I worked security for Bobby at the Chicago Theatre! 🎤🏙️
Y'all better stop acting like I don't remember my own history! 😂
I was there. I know what I did.

1:32 pm Ludacris, I expect you in Chicago
1:45 p.m. Forgive me, but I can hear just fine! 😂 I am manually loading 275 leads into my CRM, and I have to be extremely accurate with every detail because this is how I communicate, promote, invoice, and track my accounts. 📊💻
I have WORK to do! 😂
And yes, I’m expecting a lot of artists from Chicago to make an appearance at the show. 🎤🏙️
Fun fact: When we lived with Helen, Da Brat (Shaunnie) and I shared a bed. Let me be clear I am not a lesbian, but I know she misses me. ❤️😂
Shaunnie lived across the street from Diane on Adams & Kilpatrick, and I still have her mother Hodgie on speed dial. 📱
And before anybody gets confused her success doesn't bother me one bit. I remember where we came from, and I’m proud of what she accomplished.
If you remember, the first time she performed at the Regal happened because my singing group, Protegé, got cold feet at the last minute. I passed her the microphone, and the rest is history. 🎤🔥
That's my history, and I'm not competing with anybody.
I love you, but I have WORK to do! 😂❤️
And one more correction because apparently we're doing genealogy today: That is not Lisa's sister, and she is not Ray McCoy's daughter. That is Lisa's former girlfriend.
Now, back to my 275 leads. 📋💰
