I was asked to write a bio of myself on SportsRecruits. I wanted share what I wrote. I love this one and those in it. • • • OLYMPIC DREAMS. I was 12 years old when I lost my starting position at shortstop, and lost my way into the batting lineup as well. I know it sounds silly being at such a young age, but to me; at the time, it was devastating. If not for my faith in God and my family… I’m not sure if I would be here writing this bio of mine. Hello! My name is Grace Varua. I am 16 years old and currently a sophomore at Pope John High School in Sparta, NJ. I started playing softball when I was 7 years old (video) When I am not playing High School softball Pope John Softball I play for Unity Torres 2028 primarily as a catcher and 3B as my secondary. MY hopes; after you have read, is to feel who I am through this quick bio of myself. Hence, the reason why I started this bio the way I did. A quick backdrop to my story. When this all happened at 12 years old, I wasn’t quite sure how to handle it. I was broken. My parents made it super simple for me. My choices were to quit or get back to work and prove to myself and to “the world” that my story was not finished. My parents have also taught me, that having goals or being goal oriented is super important. Goals give us a sense of purpose or meaning while we sweat and work hard. Goals gives myself an opportunity to plan and stay organized. Most importantly, goals gives myself perspective in paying respect to the time and effort given to me by my coaches, players of my team and parents. Goals keep me disciplined to fight through when I’m tired and all I want to do is rest and pack it in. So I picked a goal that I felt would represent the pinnacle of my sport. That being, to be a member of USA’s Women’s Olympic National Team. USA Softball Women's National Team 🇺🇸 Some may say a far-fetched goal, but I think otherwise. I was taught the philosophy of the 100 hour rule. Roughly 18 minutes a day training for 1 year. Gives myself the opportunity to outperform 95% of the population in my craft. Whether that stands true or not. This philosophy is more about staying disciplined. I can humbly and honestly say, I exceed that 18 minutes and then-some for the reason of hoping to represent my country one day. I’ve been able to catch some of the best youth pitchers in the game of club softball right now. Like Sydney Gonglik (LSU committ) Madelyn Vogan (Penn State committ) Mackenzie Herzog 2028 (Alabama Thunderbolts Premier ‘27) Future big time pitchers Lucy Reis 2029 and Lila Manfredonia 2028 (Ohio Outlaws Wolff/Acord ‘28) Anna Jane (AJ) Jarzab (Beverly Bandits ‘09 Lewis/ Moran) Liv Cilli (Providence Committ), Reese Tobey (UMass committ) and all my current pitchers on UNITY Torres ‘28 Joselyn Bermudez 2028, Adrianna Bryce ,Maddie Falvey 2028 , Gabby Gomez Gabby Perez and OliviaMVidela2028 It has been a blessing to work side by side with all of them. I am the catcher today because of them, my coaches and trainers. I am so thankful to each and every one of them. I have achieved and experienced some awesome things at my age. I made my High School Varsity team as a freshman, was a freshman 1st team All-Conference player, I hit back to back home-runs to help Pope John get to, and win our NJ County Championship in 2025. I am a 4x USA HPP (High Performance Program) invite, USA Softball’s 15U Top Performer and 15U National Team Member. I traveled, played and trained overseas in Paris and the Netherlands. I have a 3.9 G.P.A, I have an amazing older sister and younger brother. I have the best parents in the world and I have GOD with me each and every step of the way through this journey! I am blessed and so grateful! This is who I am. ꜱᴄᴀɴʟᴀɴ ꜱᴘᴏʀᴛꜱ™️ Line Drive Media EXTRA INNING SOFTBALL Sidelines - College Softball 🥎 Jorge Solodkin @FGS_softball 5 Star Elite SB Recruits Thee Softball Report NCAA Down South Softball Carlos Arias Fastpitch Athlete Recruits Cory BIG EAST Conference ACC Softball Southeastern Conference RECRUITING REALITIES Under The Radar 𝕏 EliteSoftballReport Ashley VanBoxmeer | Softball Coach Josh Johnson

Ray Daniels has told this story on multiple podcasts because it’s one of the cleanest examples of how “pop splits” versus “urban splits” actually change the check‼️. The song is Nicki Minaj’s “Only” from *The Pinkprint* (2014) — the one with Drake, Lil Wayne, and Chris Brown on the hook‼️. Official writers are Nicki, Drake, Wayne, Dr. Luke, Cirkut, JMIKE, Theron Thomas, and Timothy Thomas (the R. City brothers)‼️. Ray Daniels manages/works with the Thomas brothers‼️. His team wrote the hook and Chris Brown’s sung part‼️. Nicki wrote her verse; Drake and Wayne wrote theirs. Chris Brown was paid as a featured artist and, according to Ray, did not take a writer’s share the same way the others did‼️. They did the record with Dr. Luke. Luke’s rule in the room was simple: there are seven writers on this song, so we split the publishing seven ways‼️. Everybody walks with roughly 13–14 percent‼️. Because Ray had *two* writers on the record (Theron and Timothy), his side left with about 26–27 percent‼️. He contrasts that with what usually happens on the urban/hip-hop side. The producer often takes 50 percent off the top‼️. Then the big features come in with their standard deal: a flat fee *plus* a set publishing percentage (Ray has used examples like 17.5 percent) no matter how many other people are on the record‼️. After Nicki, Drake, Wayne, and Chris Brown’s teams all take their cuts, the original writers are left fighting over the scraps — sometimes 5–10 percent total‼️. Ray has said that if they had done “Only” with a typical urban producer instead of Luke, he probably would have walked with something closer to 5–10 percent after the fight‼️. That’s the point he keeps making: same song, same contribution, completely different math depending on whose room you’re in and whose rules you play by‼️. The pop-style equal split is why he still talks about owning a real piece of a Nicki/Drake/Wayne/Chris Brown record more than a decade later‼️💯.

This Breakfast Club moment is a classic example of how media (and radio shows built on “real talk” prioritizes the most shareable, awkward clip even when it puts the guest in an uncomfortable spot‼️. In the 2019 interview, Charlamagne brought up the story from "Girls Cruise"‼️. B. Simone had publicly recounted that Pretty Vee, while at her house, didn’t sit on the toilet and instead did a little squat, and a small piece (described as almond-sized) ended up on the floor‼️. Charlamagne pressed it hard: “You pooped on the floor… Where’d you poop at⁉️ On the floor floor⁉️ Like squat over and poop⁉️ Come on, V… Why did y’all bring that up⁉️ Like you pooped like three-year-old poop.”‼️ Pretty Vee was clearly embarrassed‼️. Her voice rose, she said “Jesus,” asked why they were bringing it up, and pushed back that she’d given them notes for the conversation‼️. She still explained it without completely shutting down: she doesn’t always sit on other people’s toilets, she did a quick squat, wrapped the toilet paper, and didn’t realize a little bit had come out until B. Simone noticed it later‼️. She framed it as a small, accidental “doodle ball” rather than anything dramatic, and tried to keep some humor and dignity in the telling‼️. That grace under pressure is the part that often gets lost‼️. She didn’t melt down, storm out, or turn it into a full confrontation‼️. She owned the awkwardness, clarified the details, and moved on‼️ which is harder than it looks when someone is digging into one of the most private, undignified things that can happen to a person, on a massive platform, in real time‼️. The bigger pattern is real‼️: media and viral culture are engineered to hunt for exactly these moments‼️💯. A clean, professional interview doesn’t travel the same way a “she pooped on the floor” clip does‼️. Years later the same segment still gets clipped, captioned, and recirculated on TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and Facebook Reels because embarrassment is high-engagement content‼️. The artist’s actual body of work, growth, or the rest of the conversation becomes secondary to the most mortifying 30–60 seconds‼️. Charlamagne’s style has always leaned into that‼️💯 the “dangerous” part of the show is often the willingness to surface the thing the guest least wants to discuss‼️. Pretty Vee handled it with more composure than most people would in that seat‼️. She was embarrassed (you can hear it)‼️, but she didn’t let it completely derail her or turn her defensive in a way that would have made the moment even uglier‼️. That combination — the media’s appetite for the embarrassing detail + the guest still trying to stay graceful‼️ is exactly why the clip keeps living‼️💯.
