00:00Being here for the eighth time, I think it should make Dubai know that if there's one

00:09place I don't mind visiting again and again, it would be Dubai.

00:12What keeps me going and what keeps me grounded is the fact that there is a calling to, and

00:16I think I speak on behalf of all artists, whether Filipino artists or even international

00:21artists, when I say that there is a calling.

00:24Maybe it might not be realized right away, but there is a calling to what an artist is

00:31meant to do and to give to his audience, a responsibility that we have to live up to.

00:36An ordinary day for me would be, it used to be, waking up in the morning, saying…

00:41Wearing spandex.

00:42That's not true.

00:43No, it used to be me getting up in the morning, going into their rooms and saying hi and all,

00:49but none of them are in the house anymore.

00:51So with regard to it being an ordinary day, I'd have to say that an ordinary day would

00:57be just getting up, spending time, a little prayer here, a little prayer there, working

01:03on my music, then reaching out to my children through text, finding out what they're doing,

01:10and then if we can get together for an evening, like dinner, that's what we do, together

01:15with their mom.

01:16He's not the guy that people have come to know.

01:20He's the same on and off camera, the way he speaks, the way he verses, but my dad is

01:25kind of a clown.

01:28He's not so serious.

01:30Yeah, right.

01:31He's not very serious.

01:32Here we go, folks.

01:33In public, you can see Gary V as Gary V. At home, he's Gary V.

01:40That's not true.

01:41Crazy.

01:42It's true.

01:43Okay, that's true, I guess.

01:45I like laughing a lot.

01:47I like seeing my kids laugh, and I like to laugh because of them.

01:51So when we come together, really, it's something that the videos will probably never really

01:55get to see, but we'll tell you about it, but you'll never get to see.

01:58One day when my dad's older, we'll release the videos, but he can't do anything about

02:02it.

02:03Well, yeah, he looks at me and he goes, politics.

02:05No, politics is not going to be a part of my life, no, I don't think so, but I do have

02:11ideas, and I've mentioned this even to them before, but I do have ideas that are geared

02:16toward the youth.

02:17They have a sister, Kiana, who's 19, and there is a stark difference between what Paolo used

02:22to listen to and what Paolo used to do when he was 19 as compared to Gab when he was 19

02:26and as to what Kiana is doing now at 19.

02:29So many of the ideas I have may not be meant for me to execute, but it just may be meant

02:34for me to present and for other younger people to execute.

02:39I just want to be a part of that.

02:40I just want to be a part of the molding process of what I believe the youth can really be

02:45in a society that says, you be whiter, you'll be better.

02:48You be thinner, you'll be better, but what if you can't get any whiter?

02:51What if you can't get any thinner?

02:52It doesn't mean that you can't be any better than what you are now, and that's the kind

02:56of role that I hope to play in the near future, either through music, through movies, videos,

03:01or through the internet.

03:02The avenues and the possibilities are endless.

03:15Hi, I'm Gary Vee.

03:34I'm Paolo Vee.

03:35And I'm Gab Vee.

03:36And you are watching GNTV.
