Norah Jones, “Don't Know Why”

Angela Yee: Has there ever been a time where you feel like your pride has gotten in the way of having a real relationship? You know how people play games—you wanna call somebody but you don't, because you don't wanna seem thirsty.
August Alsina: Probably. I’m young so I ain't really dealt with too many people. But usually I'm pretty straightforward and honest. And it is what it is. And however you feel is how you feel. But everybody got a little pride. Like, “I'm not gonna call her.” Nah saying?
Yee: You tell your friends that and then you text her.
Alsina: Exactly. I definitely did that before. Like, “Man, fuck her,” and then I text her. Pride is a big thing that gets in the way of a lot of relationships.
Yee: I agree. I believe pride is the number one killer of relationships.
Alsina: When really it don't have to be all that, 'cause you got your understanding with that person. It’s all about communicating. Pride definitely causes a lack of communication.
Yee: You might never talk to somebody again because you don't wanna be the first to call them, and they said they was gonna call you back.
Alsina: That's so stupid. If you told me you were going to call me back and you didn’t call, I’d be like, “What’s up? I thought you said you was gonna call me back.”
Yee: Or people text you like, Oh, so you just not going to call me back? I’m like, well, you could just pick up the phone and call me. It’s not that serious.
Alsina: Exactly.

“Taste Your Love,” Horace Brown

Yee: I know you don’t know this, because it’s a ’90s song. We’ve had many discussions about this.
Alsina: Jesus Christ.
Yee: And you’ve said you eat pussy, just not for anybody. When was the last time?
Alsina: I probably ate some pussy and told her to keep it a secret. Like, [whispers] “Don’t tell nobody.” [Laughs] I don't know the last time, man.
Yee: You told somebody to keep it a secret?
Alsina: Yeah, I told her don't tell nobody. Like Ross said: “I ate that pussy, can you keep a secret?”
Yee: I did see on the blogs some girl was like, He definitely eats pussy but he told me not to say nothing.
Alsina: Please. It’s a lot of bitches that be lying.
Yee: I’m just playing with you! [Laughs]

“Love In This Club,” Usher Feat. Young JeezyYee: Ever have sex in a club bathroom? Alsina: That's young nigga shit. I sucked on some tittes in the club. Nah, I ain't never have sex in the club. Yee: We had a conversation off the air about kissing and sexing; You said kissing is more intimate. Alsina: It is. Yee: Explain that to me, please. Alsina: Because it's just something way deeper than, like, I don't even know how to explain it. It's a more personal situation than sex. I'm sure you done fucked some niggas that you ain't kiss while y’all was having sex. Yee: I’ve never done that. Alsina: I guess it's a new world today. Yee: [Laughs] [videoembed size="full_width" alignment="center"][/videoembed] “Breathe Again,” Toni BraxtonYee: Have you ever been heartbroken to the point where you physically felt like your stomach hurt? Alsina: Yeah, slightly. But, I know that you can get over any situation. And I think that's a bigger problem for women—they're scared to lose certain situations. I was just talking to my mom [about this] the other day. Yee: Were you telling your mom to leave your step-father? Alsina: Yup, exactly. Not so much leave him, because I learned a long time ago I can't make that decision for nobody. But just what I feel is right. What I feel she rightfully deserves as a woman, not only my mother... A lot of women are scared to leave situations because they're scared of what it’s going to feel like. You think it’s going to hurt so bad until you actually get out there and see, Well damn, it ain't so bad. But I felt like that before; I still kinda feel like that. Like one girl definitely messed it up for the next. It's just a part of life. Yee: You feel like you don't want to open yourself up again after something didn't work out. Alsina: Yeah, and I just really don't know how to do it. You know? I don't know how to do that. I'm still learning. But that's probably why a lot of people feel like I'm mean or something. 'Cause I don't want muthafuckas to feel like, I know Aug. No you don’t, nigga. You think you do. Yee: They know you through your music. Alsina: Exactly. And that's more than enough.
