At one point in the interview, Ebro asks Dream about whether Beyoncé has reached out to him to collaborate, and he said, "She's doing something."

He added, "I actually haven't talked to her about it," he said. "I've talked to the team about it because it's just being coordinated." When speaking on the process of planning with her team, he said, "It's a different life now. She has three kids."

Rihanna and Beyoncé come up at the 24-minute mark.

Around the 6-minute mark, The-Dream starts talking about J. Cole, saying, "J. Cole just has a sensibility where he understands who he is. Most people don't. So, it's like trying to get somebody to live life parallel to yours."
