Listen to this for my 🎶🎼 🎵 impressions of the book Never Split The Difference by Chris Voss, set to my twisty parody of the hit song SAD by Rasster (Imanbek xxx Remix). Also, lots of love and a special thanks to Jahseh Onfroy & Jonathan Cunningham for writing the lyrics to the original song❣️❣️❣️

Lyrics to ‘Hostage Negotiations’

Bite your tongue; calibrate your questions as you go.
Listeners got the power; create the illusion of control.
Tactical empathy: avoid the yes and no.
Mirroring and long pauses,
Guarantee Execution.

Bite your tongue; calibrate your questions as you go.
Listeners got the power; create the illusion of control.
Tactical empathy: avoid the yes and no.
Mirroring and long pauses,
Hire the Black Swan Group.

Chris Voss taught me every word.
He showed me how to Never Split the Difference,
He’s saved the lives of countless hostages.
His song, dance, and music keep me in sync.

Bite your tongue; calibrate your questions as you go.
Listeners got the power; create the illusion of control.
Tactical empathy: avoid the yes and no.
Mirroring and long pauses,
Hostage Negotiations.

Bite your tongue; calibrate your questions as you go.
Listeners got the power; create the illusion of control.
Tactical empathy: avoid the yes and no.
Mirroring and long pauses,
Hire the Black Swan Group.

It looks, it sounds...
Rescuing the tortured, repeating your words.
It seems, profound:
Emotional regulation paired with listening.

Bite your tongue; calibrate your questions as you go.
Listeners got the power; create the illusion of control.
Tactical empathy: avoid the yes and no.
Mirroring and long pauses,
Hire the Black Swan Group.

Bite your tongue; calibrate your questions as you go.
Listeners got the power; create the illusion of control.
Tactical empathy: avoid the yes and no.
Mirroring and long pauses,
Hostage Negotiations.

Bite your tongue; calibrate your questions as you go.
Listeners got the power; create the illusion of control.
Tactical empathy: avoid the yes and no.
Mirroring and long pauses,
Hire the Black Swan Group.

Bite your tongue, apologize.
Bite your tongue, apologize.
Bite your tongue, apologize.
