I miss everybody being here.DIDDY:Its a fun job.
Its something that like youre used to doing, so you expect to be doing it.
And theres so much joy to be able to give someone the opportunity to really chase their dreams.
Its crazy.DJ KHALED:Its the biggest show on TV, my brotha.
Im just being honest.
Thats when you know youve got a No.
The people have spoken and were here for season 2.
No, for real.
I was on tour and I tried to doThe Fourcappuccino routine.
[Everyone laughs].TRAINOR:Thats a good lesson.
How about the rest of you?
Any non-cappuccino lessons?DIDDY:Anything you learn Fergie?
We saw you evolve so much.FERGIE:Thank you.
Im watching each of these superstars in their different worlds and they each have such intelligent things to say.
And for me, Im like a sponge, taking it all in.
But these guys… Ive grown to love them in a very fun way.
Thats why I really love the show besides being on it.
I get to watch it and Im a fan.
Great music makes you feel a certain way.
And thats what its about.
If it doesnt excite us, were going to inspire, motivate, and help them to be great.
Thats what we do on this team right here and thats what makes us different from anybody.
Were not here trying to act, were not doing nothing thats not real.
Thats what I learned about these shows, because you never know what really goes on.
But this, this is as real as it gets.
Theres tension, theres tears, theres walks, people have to get up and take a walk.
Its not, Lets all put on smiles for the camera.
Its, Lets go to battle.
Like we would be shocked at the voting and we were like, This is how it is?
This is TV and this is real.
Its crazy for us, but its way more crazy for the contestants.
Its a competition, but its also a sitcom.
We take this very seriously because we also represent something thats really not on the airwaves.
Were representing hip-hop, were representing diversity, and so we take the opportunity seriously.
And then we just started to catch our flow and were in the flow right now, baby.
Aint nothing gonna stop us.
What was that experience like?
This is someone who you all had known for years.DIDDY:For us, it was about the talent.
It was about focusing on the talent.
Honestly, becoming kind of like a family.
And Ive been in a group, so I know that there is more to come.
But seriously, its about to get crazy.
Just the texts, the phone calls, Khaled inviting me up onstage, Im so grateful.
I just feel like were building something really real that lasts a lifetime.
Like I want to see everything out there, and dont be afraid to audition.
Come out, we really want to meet you.
I want more genres.
We might like that more.DIDDY:We love weird.
Evvie [McKinney] and Zhavia [Ward].
That right there speaks for itself.
We came to give opportunities and I feel like we overdelivered.
And superstars are watching this.
Im not going to name names, but superstars are watching this show and they become fans of people.
Those are the people who need to support the music.
So weve got a great show, I feel like weve got the biggest and No.
1 show.DIDDY:Oh, we turning up this year.
Last year was like at 10 percent.FERGIE:Ive got to say, I love the trash talking.
It gets heated sometimes, but I just really enjoy it.TRAINOR:It gets my heart pounding.
Its fun to watch though.
Im like, Damn, Im in the front row for the best show ever.
The Fourreturns Thursday at 8 p.m.
