In this episode of BET Talks, Miabelle sits down with Grammy-nominated artist and cultural voice Wale for a conversation that goes far beyond the music. After taking time away from the spotlight, Wale opens up about where his mind has been over the past four years—reflecting on healing, growth, fatherhood, and what it means to learn yourself all over again.
He breaks down the intention and emotion behind his upcoming project Everything Is A Lot, speaking openly about the moments that shaped it and the lessons that grounded him. From “touching grass” and finding peace in real life, not the internet, to navigating co-parenting with love and maturity, Wale shares the quiet truths most people don’t get to hear.
The conversation digs into the realities of the music industry, the loneliness that can hide in nightlife, and why keeping a small circle is the only way to stay centered. Wale also speaks on celebrating Nigerian culture in his artistry, the need for more emotional diversity in rap, the new artists he’s excited about, and yes… whether love might just be in the picture. 👀
It’s honest. It’s vulnerable. It’s Wale fully in his element.
Tap in and stay for the gems.
