We have a really special show for you today. I'm excited about it.

Well, there's music royalty. There are legends. Um, and there are music that will live absolutely forever. You all ran to the box office. You run to the box office, making the number one movie in the country, the One Love, which has been out since Valentine's Day. It has made a quadrillion dollars. And I want to say that I am so honored to have Aston Barrett here. I want to give a big shout out and all my condolences to him for his father who was a legend. And we're gonna honor him and we're gonna talk about this movie and all of the work and all the things that are going on. Aston Barrett is here. Welcome to the show.

[1:27] Aston Barrett Jr: Yes, One Love. You are a genius. Your family is a genius. You all have made music that will live forever.

[1:38] Robert Bannon: Ah, thank you. Thank you so much. Oh my father, you know. Hey, we want to we we it's a real honor that you're here because we know that your father uh recently passed away, and we give our respects to the one and only Aston Barrett. You know, he's the fam, he is fam. He is the one right there that you hear on all those records producing all those records. What was it like growing up with him as your dad?

[2:02] Aston Barrett Jr: Growing up with him is it's an experience that does deserve to be written in many books. Um, the stories that I have is unreal, and he's unreal. He's not a normal person. As I would say, it makes sense why he would be one of the guys to make the music the way that the music was, because you know, Bob Marley is amazing with what he does, and Family Man and Carly, they're brothers. So, you know, that's that's a different bond there. So we call him the three musketeers because he originally had Bunny and Peter, which respectfully as well. But when it became the band, you needed the drum and the bass of those Barrett brothers, and that's what hit the people with Bob Marley message. So it shows you the music and the dominance of the drum and the bass.

[3:01] Aston Barrett Jr: It's amazing to me that your father and your uncle played so played behind him, played all of that music. And you took an album like the Legend album, 15 20 20 million copies sold. I mean, Bob Marley and the Wailers, it is history. You changed the face of music forever.

[3:23] Aston Barrett Jr: Yes, yeah, yeah, man. Bob Marley and the Wailers music has no category, none old or it's not new, it's just there. It's gonna just live on forever. It's the spiritual music.

[3:34] Robert Bannon: Absolutely, forever, it's timeless. So, Aston, you then follow in the footsteps. You're a musician, you're a producer, you're a writer, you have your Grammys, you have your Grammy nominations. And you've taken the reins and taken the Wailers through the years. You you guys are still you've taken over.

[3:52] Aston Barrett Jr: Yes. Many are called, few are chosen, but my father put it in my hands because he was the one that trained me. Um I didn't believe in myself in running the banner. I believe in myself as a musician. But he believed in me and he saw many things in me that I never saw. You know, and then now I'm starting to really overstand most of it because you know he passed away two weeks ago, and then I every morning I just feel blank. And then now I start to realize what my true purpose is. And my purpose is spreading peace, love, and unity to the whole world. And that's what he represents. So now, yeah, that's what I'm supposed to do. And so I'm doing it.

[4:42] Robert Bannon: You're doing it, and you go back. The movie is a global smash. It's a huge smash. How did it come that you would play your father in the movie?

[4:54] Aston Barrett Jr: Yeah, I got a call from this um artist in Jamaica. His name is Alberose. And he said, Yeah, this lady that's a friend of his that does casting, and they're working on a Bob Marley movie. So he's he's like, they need a family man, and you're the rightful one for itself. I didn't really take it serious, but the lady called me and she was very nice. Her name is Kareed Shin. And um she sent me everything and guided me what I needed to do. And then um, we did the audition. My Empress, my queen was the one who videoed me and did everything for me. Thank God. And then I, you know, and then um I sent it in, and then I didn't hear anything, so I forgot about it, went on tour, and then I got a text from Sidella Marley saying, Have you ever acted before?

Um, please send me. I'm gonna send you these things, send a video. So I told her, I did the video already, but I'll send you the same video that I did, and still didn't hear anything. So probably two weeks later, Karim texts me and said, The director wants to meet with you, and I've never seen this before. So I said, All right, we did a Zoom meeting. His name was Ray, amazing, amazing guy, perfect guy to do the to do what that's why the movie is where it is. He needed someone with compassion, and he said, I'm happy to have you on board. So I'm like, Okay. So after we finished the conversation, I said, Corinne, did I get the part? She's like, I don't know, because you still have to go through the right channels, you know. You still need it, I still need to get a confirmation that says accept it. So I mean, a few days later, and then she called me, she said, Congratulations, you got the part.

[6:42] Aston Barrett Jr: It is a it feels like it makes sense. It had to be amazing. What was it like to be on set and relive these stories and these these iconic moments and and recreate the time as your father?

[6:54] Aston Barrett Jr: Yeah, it's it's definitely um, it's definitely a life-changing thing. Because I told my father when I got the part, and he was very happy. And he said, I'm happy for you, son. And I said, Well, all the stories you've you told me, I'm gonna have to live it now. And he's like, Yeah, you know, whatever they say, but you know, there's more stories. So, you know, so I said, All right, I I don't know. You know, I just told him what it was from the script. So he gave me his blessing, and I went and that's when it started, and to live what he to be him is different, to you know, to act like him is one thing, but you know, I'm his son, so we're very similar with bloodline, and I grew up with him, so we're very similar in everything that we do, how I speak, how I think, in certain things, but I take a lot of the good side for where he does the music, and you know, that's what we do, you know.

So, I mean acting was something else, and then I had Hector who had to be Carlton, so he'll ask me, How is how would Carlton be? And I said I never met him, but from what my father and his sisters told told me about Carlton. I was able to give him a few things of how Carlton is because I'm sure Carlton is like us, just imagine me that's very mellow, but put me in a more hyper side. So, whatever I have, just put the opposite of the hyperness with the same positive energy, and that's Carlton.

[8:26] Aston Barrett Jr: It's depicted so beautifully in the movie, and I think the world needs this story. I think we need this revolution of love, and I know that's the music that you make. Going to your career, I mean, the One World album that the Wailers did is your baby.

[8:42] Aston Barrett Jr: Yes, it's your baby. The Wailers are on tour, they you tour, you go around the world, and I'm sure after this year in the movie, there's gonna be such a demand to see you all. What do you have? What's next? Go to the Wailers.com. What's what's next?

[8:58] Aston Barrett Jr: Yeah, well, we have an we have another album that we just finished, so it finished mastered now. So the One World album you saw was produced by Emilio Estefan, right? So I I learned so much from him because my father is also a big fan of him. I love you know, love how he is, and he's friends with Quincy Jones, and you know, so the whole story. So I went back with Emilio again, and this time we went even deeper. That time we did it because it's the first time meeting him, but now we're family, so now we were able to go deep. So this album is on the next level, my brother.

[9:39] Robert Bannon: Oh, I I'm here. Listen, Emilio Estefan is a is an icon, is of genius.

[9:44] Aston Barrett Jr: Gloria Estefan.

[9:46] Robert Bannon: Gloria is amazing, and Emily, don't forget Emily too.

[9:50] Aston Barrett Jr: And I was family. You had Emily on on the Wailers album, and Emily sings her face off.

[9:57] Aston Barrett Jr: Yeah, man. That whole family are really good people. When I tell you good people, because hear what Emilio believed in me, just like my father believed in me. My mother believed in me. You understand? So Emilio is not like he's just like, I'm gonna do this for you, Aston. Okay, you were in a movie, you know. Since I did the movie, people are like, Yeah, Aston, why you know? So, what what about before I was in the movie? But it's it's all right, cuz you know, you have to work to where you need to reach. But Emilio's been there with me before anything, really. When I just start running Wailers, and some believed in me, some didn't. Emilio is like, I don't need he don't need to do anything, but he loves my energy and he believed in me. And he pushed me, pushed me just like my father and just like my mother. And now I am here, so I'm you know, I'm very faithful to him, and I love working with him. So yeah, it's just amazing working with them then.

[11:04] Robert Bannon: That combo, the hit, you, him, that whole let's get it oh yeah. Woof. Now you your producer, but you're a drummer.

[11:14] Aston Barrett Jr: I'm up I'm originally a bass player. I'm gonna go back on, you know what's funny. I told everyone that I was gonna go back on bass before my father passed, because after the movie original, I'm really supposed to play bass, but I played drums because my father was playing bass, and you know, he said, Man, I have a heard Carlton style in so long.

[11:36] Aston Barrett Jr: So that's how I start playing drums and I've just been playing drums ever since. But I'm really a bass player and a producer. And a producer, and you have a studio and you're in Florida and you produce records. I mean, you have worked with if I look at your bio here, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And it's growing in it, it's growing. And it's growing. And if it's going on tour and working with Lauryn Hill and Nas, or going on and making more music, and if you go through the list of people who have sung with you and the music that you've made, and you've only just, you've only just if it's Shaggy, if it's if it's Skip Marley, if it's all the like you all are just world. Well is great. What do you say?

What what do you think when you when you define music as a producer, as a writer, as someone who's nominated for awards and selling albums, what it's not always about it's not a and Bob Marley and your father and everyone it's not about money, it's not about it was about the message. How do you carry that out in your life? Yeah, hear this. We're on this planet for a reason. There's many are called fewer chosen. We're here to do our work. Yes, we need money to survive, and we need money. So if we want to reach people, you need the funds in order to make sure you have the right equipment to give the people the sound that they need to get, right? But we look on it more deeply. We don't look on it like we're just living and that's it.

We're looking at it that there's another world, and we came back here for a reason. So my father and everyone, after Bob died, the Wailers was like it was going, it was a ship going up and down. They had some good people, have some bad people. Other people said they don't want nothing to do with it, and everything looked everyone look on Wailers as it was very politic. It was like politics, right? So when I came in now from I was young, my mind is just always smooth. So I just said, you know what? I'm just gonna work with my dad. But then when it's time to run Wailers, I didn't want to do it because of the I thought it would just be too much politics. But you know what? I don't really care if you really think about it, because we have to do God's work, right?

And God's work is bringing people together. So once I start to work on the Wailers now, then we'll bring people together. But then many people who, when I told them I was doing Wailers, a lot of them didn't want anything to do with it, but I work so hard to bring it to where it is now. So now when you see the name, you're like, wow, Wailers again. And then no, everybody. It's like, yeah, we want to be a part of it. But then you have to remember who was there with you from the beginning. So we're not gonna bring anybody who wants to be there. Who was there with me from the beginning will stay with me? You know, because you know, I mean, it's like it's like in stocks, you know. Amazon, you know, people who didn't believe in it didn't put in the stocks, but now they put in the stocks, and the ones who did was a risk.

Now they're benefiting, you know. So it can't work that way, so we work hard for it. But it's deeper than just the physical, the spiritual because Uncle Bob is there, and then my father is there now, guiding all of us, and it's not just me alone, but you have to have a pure heart to run Wailers. You can't be jealous, you can't have a jealousy mind or be envy, or it won't work. That's why it was getting wobbled. So now we have to do it, you know, and that's why I'm doing it. And I'm human, but I have to also do self-work on myself to make sure I live what I preach.

[15:25] Robert Bannon: See that your energy is infectious, and your energy is what we all need in this world, yes, sir. Your music and the message that you lead and what's to come is only gonna heal this world even more. You take the message of your father and you keep running, and I can't wait for the music for the concerts. When you're in the New York area, I need to be ready. I'm ready. I can give a little I got a little beat, Aston. I can bounce a little, I'll give a little something, something, yeah, yeah. The Wailers. It's gonna be great, man. I have a drama that's coming in that we're training. You know, because I guess after playing drums everyone got spoiled. They're like, oh man, Carlton. But once they hear the bass the right way on the drama with train.

The drum is a great drum and all you know you have great drummers out there who really once they really love it, then they will be able to play it. You know so I'm gonna go back and represent Pamela man. Yeah. And that's it. And that and no one can ever take that from you. And that's why it's such an honor that you're here because I know this month has been hot. It's been highs and lows for yeah it's good I don't know how long it's gonna last but that's when you have real people that are really true to you. And then when you're in this mode you can really see who's really there for you and who really there cause everyone that call and show their appreciation then you know the love you know and some people you'll think we'll call but they didn't so you say all right but maybe they don't know so you have to still be humble and think peacefully because we have to live as Wailers yes I I'm here I am I and we all should take a little bit of that we all should live as Wailers a little bit more in this world I want people to know that they can follow you if they want to be a part of the story and and can keep up with everything on Instagram at junior.dot.ashtonbarrett. And we all are gonna listen to the music.

We're all gonna go to the Wailers.com so that we know when the new album comes out and the tour dates come out and all the projects that you have come out. And we're all gonna go and see One Love, the Marley story in theaters. Go get your tickets and come see the movie and uh and stream the music. Stream this music wherever music is heard so that you can keep the legacies alive. It will live forever. It's not going anywhere. I am so honored to have you here. Uh, you as a producer and a talent, and as a as a songwriter and as a as a musical figure, and then your lineage and your family to be here uh this time it means the utmost to me. So I want to say thank you for taking time out of your day to be here.

And I send so much one love to you and and to your family. I don't know what's it saying. I don't, I never in my life imagined that I would get to speak to the head of the Wailers and uh person whose family has literally created the music that so many of you have listened to. When when the movie came out, my cousin Erin wrote me right away, and she was like, This movie is so good, it's fire. Go out and see it and uh to to support live music and to support legends that fought for peace and love and equality and a revolution in in in music. We had a chance to talk to Tanya Nolan, another musical up and coming superstar earlier today. Take a peek.

[18:56] Tanya Nolan: You know, we love R&B singers, we love old school sounding R&B where there's a melody where there are lyrics where we could dance and slow, we can have a date night. And let me tell you, you like the taste of honey. Ha ha ha honey. Yes, come on. She well, uh if I if I if Kate, you could be my candy girl, Tanya Nolan anytime. Tanya Nolan is here. Hey! This song is slaps. That that hook is gonna be stuck in your head. It is like a little earworm. Thank you. Thank you. How did the idea for the song and the hook and how did how did the process of making this all happen come together? Okay, well, um, KP from the colleagues, um, and Raheem Devon, actually. So KP produced the song. Um, Raheem wrote the song, and so Raheem presented it to me pretty much when it came to um the the track, and basically when it came to the recording of it, Raheem did the lyrics off the top of his, it just came out. It was not pre-written, and so we did it like that. I got by right behind him, you know, and I mimicked pretty much what he did with his direction, of course, and that's how that happened. Magic.

[20:20] Robert Bannon: And it is magic, and it is out. The single is out. You could stream it wherever you listen to your music, and and and just go, but and we can we could go to we can go to your name, tanyanolan.net, and we can go to you on Instagram and follow us your name as well, so we could stay up to date because you've been dropping some you've been sticking yourself on the billboard charts for a minute now.

[20:42] Tanya Nolan: Yes, um, my highest peaking reggae thus far, um, is Pace Yourself, which was written by Raheem Devon as well. Um, excited about that. And now um I do have some projects that's coming, and they will be able to find me when it comes to the updates at uh www.tanyanolanmusic.com. And when it comes to Instagram, it's at I am Tanya Nolan. Thank you.

[21:11] Robert Bannon: Okay, we got it. We're up to date. We're ready. We gotta be on the road. We gotta be right about all the info. You um you talk about Raheem Devon and you you guys talk about your song. He is a Grammy nominated superstar that has you know selling charts.

[21:25] Tanya Nolan: Actually, the correction, he he recently received the Grammy.

[21:29] Robert Bannon: He just won.

[21:30] Tanya Nolan: He just won. You are right.

[21:31] Robert Bannon: So when you what is it like to collaborate? What is the collaborating process like for you?

[21:38] Tanya Nolan: It's it's an honor um actually being able to collab with someone um like him with his status and his achievements. He's actually um a genius when it when it comes to music, Raheem is like um if I had to compare him to someone, it's really difficult. But if I had to, it will be a combination of Marvin Gaye and Teddy Pendergrass. That combination. So and then but rightfully so, it's like he's his own man, honestly, and and it shows that when it comes to music, it's just like he's standing on that their shoulders, and it's like I know they're proud. That's how I feel about that.

[22:23] Robert Bannon: Oh, that that is I understand that for sure. You know, you're a really you're really fun, interesting artist. Because I I'm gonna agree with you with that. I think you are because not, you know, I I know a little bit about a little bit about you. Texas, you know, Galveston, and here you're a businesswoman.

[22:42] Robert Bannon: You have people working for you right now, watching the babies and taking care of everybody.

[22:46] Tanya Nolan: And that is true, and other things, uh, and other things as well.

[22:51] Robert Bannon: And you have your own record label. Like you are you hustle, you make your money, you put out your music.

[22:57] Tanya Nolan: That is true.

[22:59] Tanya Nolan: That is true.

[23:00] Tanya Nolan: And I get that life because I'm literally, as you heard the noise, I'm in my I l I just missed my fifth grade class, and I jump on to talk to you. And you know, we all are out here trying to make a buck, but you also share a lot about your as do I, a lot about your personal life, and you put out songs and singles that have become pride anthems. You've been very open about your life. Why did you feel the need to live authentically? Look at I mean this song is beautiful. You know, "Create Your Best Life" is a beautiful, beautiful song. A song like "Let's Celebrate" is a beautiful, beautiful song. Why did you feel the need to share that part of your life to the public?

[23:35] Tanya Nolan: Because it's who I am. It's who it's who I am. And I would be I don't want to lie to my audience. Um, I want my right tribe, the people that's for me to come to me and want to stay. So in order to stay and stand in my truth and attract the right people, it's important to be authentic.

[24:02] Robert Bannon: Well, I really appreciate it. And I know that you know, my in-laws in Detroit and my community that is in Jersey, and everyone that is the pride family. We I'm repping for you and your authenticity because we need that representation in the world in communities, and you're doing that as a woman of color out here singing R&B music, that could be for anybody, but you don't just sing R&B music, you sing R&B music for the gays and the straights and the everybody.

[24:29] Tanya Nolan: That is true. Love is love, but I don't mind displaying that. I show it. I love my wife dearly. So even when it came to, you know, the music videos is business, it's you know, I'm acting. Um, and I love the art, I love the art, and even just by me watching it, me and Kim, you know, we you know, watching a lot of my videos. I'm like, um, I remember sitting watching other videos growing up, and I'm like, wow, I get to watch my own. It's such a blessing. Yes, stand in my truth and tell everybody, love who you love. People really need to mind their business.

[25:07] Robert Bannon: You know, amen. I feel that a lot of people have a lot of you know. I just got engaged to my partner, and people ask all these inappropriate questions you never ask your other friends. Who's who? Who plays a gender role? What are you excuse me? Why? Why are you in my why do you care? Why do you care?

[25:28] Tanya Nolan: Right. Worry about your own house. Um, and so that's why it's so important. I had students today actually come up as I recognize that sound like you're so good. I'm sure in your schools right now, there's people to make an announcement. Uh-huh. What I had students come to me today and say, I don't get acceptance from my family, I don't get accepted from my community. What am I supposed to do? Did you find your own? I mean, sure you have a lot of people who would accept you and support you and root for you and your family, but did you have to create your own tribe and your own community at some point as well and keep people on that mean something to you?

[26:07] Tanya Nolan: I love them, those who was loving on me, um, even more so, and the ones that had a problem when it came to my sexuality, I took it as that's their problem. Um, I took it as if they don't get to be in my world, they don't get to get to know me, you know. That's how I look at it because I know I know who I am as an individual, and if they are so ignorant, whereas um they're allowing who I'm sleeping with to tank their judgment of me of whatever the reason may be, they can lie in it. I'm numb to it, I don't care.

[26:45] Robert Bannon: Oh my god, I want to grow up to be you. I need I need I need some of that you make and it makes loving yourself and loving who you would even more pleasurable.

[26:55] Tanya Nolan: Agreed. I feel you. I live that I understand that completely. And then you add that voice and you add the looks, and you add the clothes and the videos and the fashion and the beats and the come on now.

[27:10] Robert Bannon: Thank you. So are we gonna get to see you think we get to see you do some live shows? We want to see you come on.

[27:15] Tanya Nolan: We have that coming in the making as we speak. I'm doing something this Saturday, and so I'm gonna be sure I have it uploaded on my social media, but not just sad. Um, we have projects. I have projects coming, and I do have tour dates coming, is going to be posted on my website. Go to the website, follow the Instagram, and make sure you stream it wherever you listen to music, add the songs to your playlists and make them a part of your date night, make them a part of your you know if you're driving in your car, clean your house, you know, at the gym, you gotta listen to these look.

[27:48] Robert Bannon: What do you what can you say about R&B? Sometimes people say, you know, the old the R&B that I love growing up, the R&B, you talk about loving if it's Prince and Michael Jackson and all of this music. We need good R&B music that we grew up with. What do you say about the genre of R&B?

[28:04] Tanya Nolan: It's alive, it's out there. It's alive, it's out there, it is it's it's never leaving. I mean, R&B is rooted, it's rooted. And it's just not, it's just not going anywhere. I mean, even when they were talking about, oh, what happens to R&B? Um, you know, it's in the in in the back of the line now. No, it's just that we know who controls the media. We know how that goes. So pretty much it's just now that R&B is coming more so in that forefront, it's evolving, it's evolving, and this time it's gonna be here for a very, very, very, very, very, very long time.

[28:44] Robert Bannon: Are you uh because it's where the music is being made with melodies and with lyrics that mean something and real instruments, real right, uh, people can really sing, not so much auto-tune.

[28:56] Tanya Nolan: I was gonna say it. I was this sings, sing no need, no old pitch corrector doesn't need to be turned up to the crankity crank of the top of the top in the studio, can sing.

[29:05] Robert Bannon: Can sing all that now you you not only uh we talked about your business part and your personal life and the music, music, music, which you gotta be listening to and streaming, but you also take activism very seriously. You talk about reading, you do campaigns about about all sorts of things that you have been a part of. Use your face, use your platform. How important is it to be an artist that is also an activist that's out here with the cause and using your your platform for good?

[29:29] Tanya Nolan: Because we have a lot of crime out here already. It's like we are among the devils. So it's like I don't want to be a part of that. I'd rather be the light, I'd rather be the answer, I'd rather be the piece. I'd rather talk about love, good positive things. Um, when they think of Tanya Nolan, it's it's important because when they turn on the TV, when they step outside, even just when you when you wake up in the morning, you don't know what's going to be. So since you don't know, if you take an when you when it comes to Tanya Nolan, if you hear anything, it is about healing, it is about peace, it is about love.

[30:09] Robert Bannon: Yes.

[30:09] Tanya Nolan: And that's what I love.

[30:11] Robert Bannon: I love that. And I love that you use your voice for good. And to help people highlight if it's books, if it's kids, if it's whatever you're doing, you use your voice for good. What was it like coming to New York and seeing your album on a billboard in Times Square?

She's um she's incredible. I was so grateful. It was like um that was a big win. I didn't expect that. That was a pleasant surprise.
