00:00 We are here at the Spotify Best New Artist Party.
00:03 Name five of the Best New Artist nominees.
00:07 (humming)
00:09 - Hey y'all, I'm Coco Jones,
00:11 and I'm taking cheap shots with Cosmo.
00:14 I can't believe I messed that up.
00:17 - These are easy.
00:18 - Are you sure?
00:19 - Uh-huh.
00:20 (upbeat music)
00:22 - How do you feel about cheap liquor?
00:24 - I feel like I can channel my younger party girl,
00:27 and this cheap liquor will taste fine to me.
00:29 But, I don't know, I might have gotten used
00:31 to the finer things in life.
00:33 I've got nine Cosmos in front of me,
00:35 and three of them are spiked with cheap, crusty vodka.
00:39 In round one, I'll be taking shots at myself.
00:43 SZA once gave me advice to have a sense of delusion.
00:48 What's your most delusional trait?
00:51 Ooh, I will say my own personal delusional trait
00:56 was thinking that as soon as I moved to LA,
00:59 at 16, that I would immediately become famous,
01:02 Hannah Montana, personal driver, paparazzi,
01:05 and just living my life, you know?
01:08 That was very delusional of me.
01:09 Okay.
01:13 You are nominated for five Grammy Awards.
01:18 Which one excites you least?
01:20 - Nah.
01:22 I'd like to take a shot, please.
01:28 I love the little glasses.
01:29 Mm, it has a pickly energy.
01:39 Okay.
01:42 That was all right.
01:43 It clearly wasn't the cheap shot,
01:45 even though, a little perfumey.
01:47 (laughs)
01:51 You've collaborated with everyone,
01:54 from Babyface to Rene Rapp.
01:56 Name one collab you've turned down.
01:59 Tell us who and why.
02:01 Mm-mm, mm-mm.
02:06 I'll be taking another shot.
02:09 Now this one's larger than the previous one.
02:12 When does this qualify as a shot?
02:14 This is a small, small cocktail.
02:17 Mm.
02:25 Mm-mm.
02:27 That was cheap.
02:28 I don't know, I feel scared for what's to come.
02:31 Because why did y'all put the cheap alcohol
02:33 in the large glass?
02:35 That's upsetting.
02:36 Round one is complete.
02:39 Round two is timed shots,
02:41 so I'll have 30 seconds to get the questions right,
02:43 or I take a shot.
02:44 Question one.
02:48 What are the first two lines of the second verse
02:50 of the "Fresh" Prince of Bel-Air theme song?
02:53 (sighs)
02:55 Um, I don't, I've never made it that far, I'm not.
02:59 I know myself, I have never made it that far.
03:01 I'm gonna take the shot.
03:02 Don't even start the clock.
03:04 Mm-mm.
03:07 That was fine, but no, it wasn't good.
03:13 The first two lines of the second verse
03:15 are in West Philadelphia, born and raised--
03:17 No, no, that's the first verse.
03:19 That's the second verse.
03:21 What's the first verse?
03:22 On the playgrounds where I spent most of my days?
03:23 That's the first verse.
03:24 Hold on, did I get that right
03:27 and have to take a nasty-ass shot for no reason?
03:29 - It starts with, now this is a story all about how--
03:33 - I can't believe I messed that up.
03:39 I can't believe myself.
03:41 I'm blaming it on the alcohol,
03:43 'cause that part I do know,
03:45 and we're gonna move on 'cause I took the shot,
03:47 and that's upsetting.
03:48 As many times as they play this song surrounding me?
03:52 Wow, okay, sorry, y'all.
03:54 As a member of the Beehive,
03:58 can you name five of Beyonce's lead singles?
04:02 Okay, sure.
04:03 I'm feeling like "Single Ladies" was definitely one of 'em.
04:06 "Crazy in Love," for sure.
04:07 I would also like to say "Naughty Girl."
04:11 Was "Naughty Girl" one of 'em?
04:12 I would like to, okay, no, it wasn't.
04:13 "Halo," "Halo" was definitely one of 'em, if I were a boy.
04:15 If I were a boy, it was one of them.
04:17 Okay, let's keep going, let's keep going.
04:20 "You Won't Break My Soul" was definitely a single,
04:21 and then finally, finally,
04:23 "Love on Top."
04:26 (buzzer buzzes)
04:27 "Love on Top" wasn't a single?
04:28 Okay. - Not a lead single.
04:30 - What?
04:31 Okay.
04:31 (buzzer buzzes)
04:34 (sighs)
04:36 I gotta catch my breath there.
04:39 Bottoms up.
04:46 (cork pops)
04:49 Cheap.
04:50 That cheap.
04:51 - In case you're wondering, "Crazy in Love," "Deja Vu,"
04:56 "If I Were a Boy," "Single Ladies," "Run the World,"
04:59 - Oh. - "XO."
05:01 - Oh?
05:01 - "Formation," - Yeah.
05:03 - "You Won't Break My Soul."
05:04 (laughs)
05:08 - Damn.
05:09 We are here at the Spotify Best New Artist Party.
05:12 Name five of the best new artist nominees from 2023.
05:17 (groans)
05:20 (laughs)
05:27 No.
05:30 'Cause these are actually nasty.
05:32 (crew laughs)
05:34 I'm gonna be real with you.
05:35 I only know three.
05:36 So, me?
05:39 (buzzer buzzes)
05:40 It's not counting me?
05:41 No, it has to.
05:43 Oh, shit.
05:43 Oh, I don't know any at all except Money Long.
05:47 Help.
05:47 - It's time.
05:48 (buzzer buzzes)
05:49 - Of course it's time.
05:50 I know it's time.
05:51 I know too.
05:52 Lotto, Money Long.
05:53 I thought we were talking about this year.
05:54 So, that ran up all the clock.
05:56 Yep, I'll drink.
05:57 The large ones.
06:01 Let me just get the large ones out.
06:03 (groans)
06:11 Round two complete.
06:13 Last round.
06:15 The category is cheap shots.
06:17 I'll be taking cheap shots at everyone.
06:19 - These are easy.
06:20 - Are you sure?
06:20 - Uh-huh.
06:21 - You play Hilary Banks on Bel Air.
06:25 Rank the following Hilary's from most to least iconic.
06:30 The options are Hilary Duff, Hilary Clinton,
06:33 and Hilary Swank.
06:35 I have reasons that I really like all of y'all ladies,
06:37 but this is nothing personal.
06:38 I'm gonna say Hilary Duff is the most iconic.
06:40 I feel like she really ate.
06:41 She was my childhood.
06:42 She also had a great TV show and the Bops.
06:44 Like, come on, Hilary ate.
06:46 But of course, politics and, you know, helping the world.
06:49 Hilary Clinton, and that's powerful.
06:51 And so you're second.
06:52 Hilary Swank, I love you too.
06:55 And I really liked when they mentioned you on The Office.
06:58 You know, that was one of my favorite parts,
06:59 that whole debate, you know?
07:01 I think you're great.
07:02 Would love to meet all of you ladies personally.
07:04 Okay.
07:06 In your verse on Renee Rapp's "Tummy Hurts" remix,
07:10 you say, "Lie to my face, it's your hobby."
07:14 Who are you talking about and what was the lie?
07:17 Oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah.
07:20 You know what, I'll just say,
07:23 because the theme was talking about this boy
07:26 that's in love with another girl.
07:28 So I was just talking about a guy that was coming at me,
07:32 but he was actually talking to my friend,
07:34 but at the end he did tell me.
07:36 And she wasn't even my close friend, so that's cool.
07:38 Like, we were friends through a friend.
07:40 But yeah, lie to my face, and it was your hobby.
07:44 And I hope you guys are happy they're still together.
07:46 No.
07:53 Tell us who the last celebrity to slide in your DMs was
07:57 and show us what they said.
07:58 Girl.
08:00 Cheers.
08:03 Maybe I'm getting a little desensitized
08:09 to the terribleness, 'cause that was medium terrible.
08:12 I accept that one.
08:13 How are you feeling?
08:14 I don't know if it's my nerves,
08:16 because spotlight, the pressure, the lies,
08:19 the people I could have exposed.
08:21 But I'm a little, my nerves are bad.
08:23 My heart's racing, and I know that these shots
08:25 are gonna kick my ass.
08:28 And that's fine, I welcome it.
08:30 Thanks so much for watching Cheap Shots.
08:33 Be sure to check out the vinyl of my debut EP,
08:35 "What I Didn't Tell You," out this February.
08:37 Bye.
08:39 (upbeat music)
08:42 (upbeat music)
08:44 (upbeat music)
08:47 (upbeat music)
08:50 (upbeat music)
