Starting point is 00:01:36 From Comedy Central's World News headquarters in New York. This is the Daily Show with Trevor Noah, Ears Edition. Welcome to the Daily Show, everybody. Thank you so much for truing in. I'm Trevor Noah. Take a scene. Let's get into it. Let's get into it. Our guest tonight, singer and songwriter. Skyla Gray is joining us, everybody. Take a scene. Let's get into it.
Starting point is 00:02:04 Our guest tonight, singer and songwriter, Skyla Gray, is joining us everybody. A really amazing performer. We're going to be chatting with her and she's performing later on on the show. So stay tuned, but first, let's get straight into the news. And today, I'm going to be honest, there is a lot of news, almost too much news. Luckily though, too much news is just the right amount of news for a segment we call, ain't nobody got time for that. Beyonce, she took over Coachella, she took over the Louvre, and now she's taking over Vogue. Beyonce has reportedly been giving control over the cover of the cover, the September issue of Vogue.
Starting point is 00:02:45 The singer selected a black photographer to shoot the cover. It'll be the first time that's happened in the magazine's 126-year history. How is that possible? Yeah, that's right. Beyonce will be the first guest to be given complete control of Vogue magazine's September issue cover, which is the holy grail of fashion. And on top of that, she's hired a black photographer to shoot the cover. Yeah, which is insane.
Starting point is 00:03:11 I'm just excited because it's finally a good headline with the words black person and shoot in it. This is dope. This is so dope. And you know what's funny about this story is that by having the first black photographer shoot their cover, they've inadvertently exposed that they've never had a black photographer shoot their cover. In 126 years, like if they hadn't fixed this mistake, we probably would have never realized, you know? It's sort of like when a beverage company starts advertising, they're like, now with real juice, you're like what the fuck what the fuck what the fuck what the fuck the fuck the f what th, th, th, th, th, th, th, they're like, now with real juice, you're like, what the fuck was I drinking before?
Starting point is 00:03:45 And this story has once again brought up the conversation of how the fashion industry has so often taken inspiration for people of color without actually involving them. And if we at the time, we would get into that. But we've got to move on because the country of Zimbabwe is also looking to make a big change. High turnout and high hopes in Zimbabwe's historic election. Votes are being counted in the first election in 37 years without former president Robert Mugabe on the ballot. They cued in the dark and as the sun rose on Zimbabwe's waiting to cast their vote, there there was an unprecedented feeling of optimism.
Starting point is 00:04:19 I feel so excited. There's freedom in the air. I would expect the counting to take place quickly, and for the announcement of the result to be done as quickly as possible. So, congratulations to Zimbabwe on hosting its first Democratic elections in 37 years. 37 years. Because that's how long Robert Mugabe was a dictator for. And if you in America don't know what it feels like to have a strong man in power for that's how long Robert Mugabe was a dictator for. And if you in America don't know what it feels like to have a strong man in power for that long, don't worry, you will.
Starting point is 00:04:54 You know what's funny about Robert Mugabe? What's funny about Robert Mugabe is that he was in power for all this time and he he held elections but he just wouldn't allow any opposition onto the ballots. But then they still have the elections, the elections, to still, the elections, to still, to still, to still, to still, to still, the elections, to still, to still, to be still, their, their, their, their, their, the, their, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, their, the, the, the, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, sor.e.e.a.a.a, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, But then they would still have the elections, they would still count the ballots and then he would still act surprised when he won. Like they would count and then he'd be like oh I hope I get it, I hope I get it, I hope I get it, who's pretty, oh I won again I can't believe it. Oh I can't believe it. Oh I can't believe I beat myself. Now if we have the time, we could talk about how this is only the beginning of Zimbabwe's difficult road back to being economically successful on the continent, but we just don't have the time. Because while Zimbabwe is celebrating a president, Akron, Ohio is celebrating a king.
Starting point is 00:05:36 He is known as King James, and now some might be calling him Lebron the headmaster. The basketball superstar opened an elementary school in his hometown with every single detail carefully designed to change students lives. In his new school named I promise 240 third and fourth graders identified as needing support chosen for the first classes. No matter if I'm playing in Los Angeles or not, Akron, Ohio is always home for me. Always. Wow. Wow for me. Always. Wow. Yeah, wow. That is such an amazing and heartwarming story.
Starting point is 00:06:13 And I love the way LeBron was like, I'm leaving Ohio for a life, and I'm building a school. And I'm building a school. What was the first part? Never mind. Never mind. And now some people are asking why LeBron needed to open a school. What was the first part? Never mind. Never mind. And now some people are asking why LeBron needed to open a school. But you see, after what happened to him in the finals with J.R. Smith, LeBron was like, y'allon, yo, everyone in Cleveland needs
Starting point is 00:06:33 to learn how to count, okay? We're going to make sure that that doesn't happen again. And although this is a really beautiful story of philanthropy, it does raise the question of why communities need celebrities to provide services that should be provided by the government. No one should be out there going, I hope my team wins the Super Bowl so they can buy us a fire department. You don't want that. But look, we don't have the time to talk about all of that because the situation between Iran and the US just took an unexpected turn. President Trump also making news on Iran tonight. After ripping up the Iran nuclear deal and then exchanging harsh words with the Iranian president, today President Trump declaring he would meet with the Iranian president.
Starting point is 00:07:14 No preconditions, no. They want to meet on me, anytime they want. Anytime they want. It's good for the country, good for them, good for us, and good for the world. With President Trump offer of a face-to-face meeting with Rouhani, Iran immediately took the upper hand. The Iran-Fars News Agency reporting that it sees no value in a face-to-face meeting. Wow. Wow, Iran. I mean, I know Iran seems extreme, but I get why they're not eager to meet with Trump? Because you've ought to meet with Trump because you've got to admit he blows hot and cold like one of those psycho boyfriends he's like Iran you will suffer consequences the likes of which fruit throughout history have suffered before I'm so sorry Iran I'm so sorry
Starting point is 00:07:51 man I haven't had my big Mac today man I haven't had my big Mac today man can we meet can we meet can we meet I'll meet you wherever where do you want to what you want to to me what just I just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just I just just I just just I just I just just I just I just just I just I just I just I just I just I just I just I just just I just I just I just I just I just I just just I just I just I just I just I just I just I just I just I just I just I just just just I just I just I just I just I just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just I just just I just just I just I just just I just I just I just I just I just just just I just puppy? I want to get a puppy. I just want to get a puppy. Crazy. And look, I, I understand why Iran would think a meeting with Trump would be unproductive, right? He's totally unreliable. But if they take a page out of North Korea's book, Iran might be able to use that to their advantage. Now to North Korea and evidence it may be building new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new to use that to their advantage. Now to North Korea, and evidence it may be building new long-range missiles.
Starting point is 00:08:26 These new satellite images, according to the Washington Post, showing construction of one or possibly two liquid-fueled ICBMs at a facility on the outskirts of Pyongyang. This would seem to validate concerns that North Korea had absolutely no intention of getting rid of its nuclear weapons despite Kim's very vague promises following the summit that took place in June. So Kim Jong-un made a promise to Trump and then did the opposites, which basically means Trump is getting a taste of his own medicine, although not literally because knowing Trump's doctor his actual medicine is probably
Starting point is 00:09:05 Vicodin-laced with ostrich semen. But you know what I mean. And you know, you know Trump will never admit that he got played by Kim Jong-un, right? Like North Korea could fire a nuke at San Francisco, and Trump would be like, that was actually part of the deal. They have a hall pass for one boom, boom, boom a year. One boom, boom, a year, folks. We'll be right back.

What are they talking about on these earnings calls? We're
Starting point is 00:11:59 going to be talking about ingredient to bread ratio on sandwiches. And I know that I listed that fourth, but in importance, it's probably second. I know you have a lot of options as far as podcasts go, but how many of them come out on Thursday? I mean, talk about innovative. Listen to the weekly show with John Stewart, wherever you get your podcast. Welcome back to the Daily Show.
Starting point is 00:12:32 So, since Cinnamon Hitler took office, there have been plenty of campaign promises that he hasn't fulfilled. Building the wall, repealing Obamacare, and of course, adding a swimsuit competition to the SATs. But one promise Trump did keep was passing a giant tax cut. And since it went into effect eight months ago, business is booming. In fact, last quarter, GDP hit 4% growth, which is impressive. The economy in America has been growing so fast. If it were a sixth grader, it would be that weird boy with the awkward mustache who doesn't know how to shave yet. You know, that kid is just like, I woke up one morning and my GDP was huge.
Starting point is 00:13:12 But what is true, while it's true that corporate profits are much higher these days. The idea was that they would pass some of that money along to the people who work for them. It's a theory known as trickle down, which I'm sure is what peaked President Trump's interest immediately. He was like, finally, all America will be showered with gold. A golden shower, if you will, folks. The problem is that so far, corporations have been keeping the extra cash for themselves. So far, the biggest investments have been made in stock buybacks, 700 billion dollars worth in the first two quarters, meaning these tax savings are bypassing workers and going straight
Starting point is 00:13:54 into shareholders' pockets. Real hourly pay of middle class workers has risen just 0.4 percent over the last 18 months. A new analysis by Americans for Tax Fairness found that only four percent of workers got a pay raise as a result of the tax bill. That's right. For the most part, corporations just passed their tax cuts onto stockholders. You know, it's starting to seem like when Trump promised he'd help the forgotten man.
Starting point is 00:14:20 He was like, thrown old billionaire who never leaves his mansion. He was like, we must never forget about Mortimer folks. Never forget him. He saves all these boogers in one big jar and we love him so much. So great, tasy boogers. But the fact is, the fact is, the fact is, Trump promised a tax cut for everyone. And so far, it's gone almost. So with the midterms, less than 100 days away, the administration has come up with a bold new idea. The New York Times reports the Trump administration is considering a $100 billion tax cut that
Starting point is 00:14:53 would mainly benefit the rich. Treasury Secretary Steve Manuchin said that his department was studying whether it could use its regulatory powers to allow Americans to account for inflation in determining capital gains tax liability. The time says that that that that that that that that that that that that that thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi ti times times times times times times times times times times times the the the times times times their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their tiaaqaq. tiaq. tia' tia' tiauuiauiauiauiauiaqaqaqaqaqaqaqaqaqaqaqaqaqaqaqaqaqa to allow Americans to account for inflation in determining capital gains tax liability. The Times says that independent analyses suggest that more than 97% of the benefits of indexing capital gains for inflation would actually go to the top 10% in America. Yes, the White House is now planning even more tax cuts that will overwhelmingly benefit the rich. Including, by the way, big real estate owners like President Trump.
Starting point is 00:15:30 And at this point, it feels like Trump is just trying to get his way with as much as possible before Robert Mueller gets him. Yeah, it's like he's a shoplifter in a circle K who sees the cops. He's like, okay, okay, you got me, but these are mine, I keep these now, I keep them all. For more on the proposed tax cuts, we turn to a man who's watched Wolf of Wall Street three times, Michael Costa, everybody. too-Jo'-Jost,
Starting point is 00:15:51 thri's, true, the's, true, Okay, Acosta, hopefully you can explain. Trump already gave wealthy people a huge tax cut last year. Why give them another one? Cool it with the class warfare, Acasio Cortez. Okay, it just so happens that anyone can take advantage of these tax cuts. For example, let's say you made a cool mill last year off a $10 million hedge fund investment.
Starting point is 00:16:22 Now you can re-index that baseline 2% to account for inflation, which means you just got an extra 30K. I mean, that'll cover my penis reduction surgery, am I right, Trevor? I can even loan you a couple inches. I'm just kidding. I know you got a hog. Most people don't have $10 million. We're talking about the middle class. Okay, middle class.
Starting point is 00:16:50 That's fine. Let's say you're a middle class yacht owner, like 35 feet max. Couldn't land a helicopter on that thing. You can just use these cuts as a tax shelter. Borrow 500,000 to invest in your buddy Dino's revenge porn business, then you can deduct that interest and only pay tax on the inflation inflation, revenge porn business, then you can deduct that interest and only pay tax on the inflation adjusted gains. Trevor, I say cha and you say ching.
Starting point is 00:17:10 Cha. Cha. Chaa? Do you want to say chaa? Costa, I feel like there's no way you actually understand what you just said. Of course I don't, Trevor. That's why I have a broker. He'll clear this up. Okay. Hey, Chandler. What's up, you bitch? Yeah, I'm trying to, I'm trying to explain monies to my boss. How's this tax thing work again? What, right now? You are right? Go. Go. Go. I'll see you at Polo. I got his voicemail. I got his voicemail.

Yeah, not yet. But Donald Trump promised Americans
Starting point is 00:17:46 that we're all gonna be rich, and he's never lied before. So call me poor, Trevor. Don't call me poor, Trevor. Call me pre-rich. So, okay, wait, wait, wait. then, how much $900, baby, what a... Michael Costa, everyone, we'll be right back. He's got a hard...
Starting point is 00:18:08 That's what I'm going to. Welcome back to the J.N. My guest tonight is a Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter who has written hits for Macklemore, Rianna, Beyonce, and just wrapped a festival tour with M&M. Please welcome, Skyla Gray. Welcome, Skyler Gray. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:18:29 Welcome to the show. Thank you. And congratulations coming off the successful tour with Eminem. Is Eminem one of those people who is like super hardcore whenever we see him but then he's just like a softy and a sweet art in real life? Kinda. Yeah. Yeah, he's really fun.
Starting point is 00:18:54 Yeah, he's really fun. I feel like Eminem's like in the boot and he's like, all the people of the funniest people I've ever met. You always dreamed of working with Eminem, which is what I found amazing about your story, is you talk about how you were first introduced to the idea of maybe like singing on an Eminem song when Stan came out. Yeah, I heard that song when I was like 13, and it was kind of my first experience loving hip hop. And then it kind of, I deep down had this dream of wanting to work with, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, they, the, thi, thi, thi.a, too, too, too, too, toe, they.a, they, they, they, the, the, I deep down had this dream of wanting to work with rappers even though I was a folk singer.
Starting point is 00:19:26 Right. So it was a little odd, but then I ended up working with him. So how does that story, how does that story begin? Let's go to the beginning. So you get into folk singing. And this is, is this a family thing or is it just the music you... Yeah. My mom and I had a folk duo. And I tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. tho. tho. tho. thi. tho. tho. tho. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the. the. the. the. I thea. thooooooooooooooooooooooo. So, the. I the. So, th started performing with her when I was six years old. And then I went solo when I was 14. She wasn't too happy about that. Mom, I am leaving you, but I still need you to drop me at all my gigs. Exactly. And then I moved to LA when I was 17, got a record deal.
Starting point is 00:20:01 Things fell apart. I went broke, and I left LA for a while, and I had a bad taste in my mouth about the music industry in general. And out in the woods in Oregon, I fell back in love with music and decided I had to figure out a way to make a living at it because I wasn't good at anything else. I was a high school drop out, and all the jobs I tried I sucked at. So I was I the music I the music I the music I the high I was I the high I was I was a I was a I was a the high I was a the high I was a high I was a high I was a high I was a high I was a high the high the high the high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high. I was a high school the job job job. I was a high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high high. I was a high high high high. I was a high high high. I'm a high high high high. I'm a high. I'm a high high. I'm a high. I'm a high. I'm a the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. t. t. I'm. t. today. I was. try. I was a try. I was a high school. I was a high. I was a the.the jobs I tried I sucked at. So I was like music has to work. And so I reached out to my publisher and I was like how can we do this? And
Starting point is 00:20:30 and she had just signed a guy named Alex the Kid, a producer and she connected us on email and that's how I love the way lie happened. It was like the first song after the soul searching experience. Now that you've worked in hip-hop, is that like, is that where you see a home now? Is that something that we could see as like a folk hip-hop new genre that comes to light? No, you know, I've had so much fun working in hip-hop and working with rappers and I'll continue to do that, I think, forever. But I think what my forte is is just sitting at a piano or a piano, their thia, that's what I'm going to do with my solo stuff. If you were to meet someone in your position who was starting out, and they say to you, hey, Skylette, this is what I want to do,
Starting point is 00:21:09 these are my dreams, this is where I want to get to get to. How do you tell somebody the story and thought I wasn't going to do music anymore. But it's in my blood, and I can't get away from it. So what do you tell people? Do you go, like, hey, you're going to fail a lot? Yeah. You just have to be able to deal with rejection on the daily. And then once in a while, something great will happen. I like that. And that has to to to to keep to keep to keep to keep to keep to keep to keep to keep to keep to keep to keep to keep to keep to keep to keep to keep to keep to keep to keep to keep to keep to keep to keep to keep to keep to keep to keep to keep to keep to keep you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you to keep to keep you, you to keep you to keep you to keep you to keep you to keep you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you you, you, you you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you to to to to the to to to to to the to tapy. thea, thea, to to try, to try, to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the the the thoo. th you give to. You're going to fail, kid. And also, you just have to love what you do and not focus on the accolades and the success of a song, focus on having a great time making the song.
