0:56
Speaker 1: Further foremost of all my Haitian masters, goddamnit it okay,
1:00
Speaker 1: all the Africans, everybody from El Salvador. But I do
1:04
Speaker 1: want to focus on the Haitians in this situation with
1:07
Speaker 1: mister Donald Trump, because if I know Haitians like I
1:09
Speaker 1: got no Haitians, Donald Trump will be coughing up a
1:12
Speaker 1: frog by Monday at the lace. Donald Trump doesn't seem
1:15
Speaker 1: like he has any intention of apologizing. He doesn't think
1:17
Speaker 1: he said anything wrong. People in the White House don't
1:20
Speaker 1: even feel like there's an issue. Jill trying to somehow
1:23
Speaker 1: support some certain people. Well, listen, you don't have to apologize,
1:27
Speaker 1: because when that white powder blows into your face, mister Trump, okay,
1:32
Speaker 1: and the and the truth, the whole becomes your mouth,
1:34
Speaker 1: meaning that when you start defecating out of your mouth,
1:36
Speaker 1: when you get this feeling, when you feel like you
1:38
Speaker 1: can't eat, and then you get sick, all of a sudden,
1:41
Speaker 1: you start sweating, and then you throw up an actual
1:44
Speaker 1: feast he comes out your mouth, then you will understand
1:46
Speaker 1: sounds like you've been through Haitians. Have you been through
1:49
Speaker 1: it before somebody put on you, yes before Trump want
1:54
Speaker 1: to clothe bombs with the Haitians not having this this morning.
1:58
Speaker 1: Even if Donald Trump pologize doesn't matter because he really
2:02
Speaker 1: believes he never acologizes for anything. Anyway, when somebody shows
2:05
Speaker 1: you who they are, believed him absolutely right. Donald Trump
2:08
Speaker 1: is a cracker ass, cracker, white devil. And anybody who
2:11
Speaker 1: still supports Trump at this point, even if you voted
2:14
Speaker 1: for him, if you can't admit that you made a mistake,
2:16
Speaker 1: if you can't admit that he's the worst president of
2:18
Speaker 1: all time. If you can't admit that he's bad for
2:19
Speaker 1: the country, then you a cracker ass cracker, white devil too. Okay, yeah,
2:24
Speaker 1: all right, this charlotine to God. All right, I want
2:26
Speaker 1: you to complain about the right people. Okay. Now, I
2:29
Speaker 1: said before, I can't help but feel like people that
2:32
Speaker 1: support Donald Trump are racist. Also, I know people got
2:35
Speaker 1: on me about that, but I do feel like if
2:37
Speaker 1: you support what he believes in his ideals and him,
2:40
Speaker 1: then that makes you racist. And he's supporting racist ideology.
2:43
Speaker 1: And at the least if you if you don't want
2:45
Speaker 1: to be called racist, you're an accomplished the racist. You're
2:47
Speaker 1: an accomplish the bigotry. And those people that voted for
2:50
Speaker 1: him that thought, well, he's not a politician, you do
2:52
Speaker 1: right now you have to see what damn I made
2:54
Speaker 1: the wrong decision. And that's cool. Listen, by the way,
2:57
Speaker 1: exactly if you voted for him based off that premise,
3:00
Speaker 1: and that's fine. But now at this point, at this
3:04
Speaker 1: stage in the game, you gotta admit he's bad for business, absolutely,
3:07
Speaker 1: all right, he's bad for business. All right. Well, today

4:33
Speaker 1: Balone Rock sells the breakfast logal morning morning. Everybody is
4:41
Speaker 1: DJ Envy Angela yee. Charlomagne the guy, we are the breakfast. Hey,
4:46
Speaker 1: what's happening on this beautiful Friday. Let's get in some
4:48
Speaker 1: front page news, all right. Now, let's start off with
4:51
Speaker 1: NFL football. If you still watch the football, if you
4:54
Speaker 1: still watch and care about the playoffs. Eagles take on
4:56
Speaker 1: the Falcons, Patriots take on the Titans, Jaguars sick on
4:59
Speaker 1: the sta and Saints take on the Vikings. And let's
5:02
Speaker 1: talk about Donald Trump. All right. Well, Donald Trump, he
5:06
Speaker 1: was having a meeting a closed door meeting, and they
5:09
Speaker 1: were talking about immigration reform, and in particular, what they
5:13
Speaker 1: were doing was talking about a plan that involved cutting
5:16
Speaker 1: the visa lottery in half and also making sure that
5:20
Speaker 1: the rest would go to underrepresented countries in Africa and
5:23
Speaker 1: temporary protective status nations, which include Haiti. Now, one person
5:27
Speaker 1: in the meeting said that the language assaulting on both sides.
5:31
Speaker 1: And when they started talking about Haiti, that's when Donald
5:34
Speaker 1: Trump said, why do we want people from Haiti and
5:36
Speaker 1: more Africans in the US. And he also said that
5:39
Speaker 1: US should get more people from countries like Norway. He said,
5:43
Speaker 1: why do we want people from these ish whole countries
5:46
Speaker 1: from into the United States. Meanwhile, the only shole I
5:48
Speaker 1: see on this planet is Donald Trump's mouth. And guess
5:51
Speaker 1: what if I know Haitians like God know Haitians, by Monday,
5:54
Speaker 1: he really will be defecating from his mouth. Okay who
5:59
Speaker 1: all right? Now? Staffs at the White House still predict
6:03
Speaker 1: that this comment does resonate with Trump's base and that
6:06
Speaker 1: some people are going to be very supportive people that
6:09
Speaker 1: still believe in him. But other lawmakers have condemned what
6:13
Speaker 1: Donald Trump had to say. Several lawmakers from both sides,
6:16
Speaker 1: both Republicans and Democrats, have strongly rebuked these comments, and
6:20
Speaker 1: Mia Love, whose parents came to the United States from Haiti,
6:23
Speaker 1: said this behavior is unacceptable from the leader of our nation.
6:26
Speaker 1: She's a Utah Republican and she demanded an apology from
6:30
Speaker 1: the president. She said, my parents came from one of
6:31
Speaker 1: those countries, but proudly took an oath of allegiance to
6:34
Speaker 1: the United States and took on the responsibilities of everything
6:37
Speaker 1: that being a citizen comes with. They worked hard, paid taxes,
6:40
Speaker 1: and arose from nothing to take care of and provide
6:42
Speaker 1: opportunities for their children. Listen, I'd like to say, f
6:45
Speaker 1: Trump's base, this has nothing to do with conservative and liberal.
6:49
Speaker 1: This has nothing to do with Democrat and Republican. This
6:52
Speaker 1: has to do with right and wrong, good and evil,
6:54
Speaker 1: God and Satan. This, my friends, is wrong. Haiti's government
6:58
Speaker 1: said that they condemn but Donald Trump's comments were and
7:02
Speaker 1: they also said they want to have a meeting with
7:05
Speaker 1: the US official about the incident and now the country's
7:07
Speaker 1: ambassador Haiti or they just want to get close to
7:09
Speaker 1: him to get that white powder. That's all. That's all.
7:12
Speaker 1: That's all this is. I know what this is now
7:14
Speaker 1: the ambassador to the United States said that Donald Trump
7:16
Speaker 1: was either misinformed or he is miseducated, and he said
7:20
Speaker 1: Haitians fought alongside US soldiers in the Revolutionary War and
7:24
Speaker 1: we continue to be great contributors to American society. The
7:27
Speaker 1: former Prime Minister of Haiti also said, shame on Trump.
7:30
Speaker 1: The world is witnessing a new load today with this
7:32
Speaker 1: isho nation's remark. Yo yo, Donald Trump, Haitians coming to
7:35
Speaker 1: the country every day. Be get you some soup, jumu,
7:38
Speaker 1: some gingert. You'll be a you tough right, So the
7:40
Speaker 1: thing is tough, right. He's a racist, he says these remarks.
7:43
Speaker 1: But what happens next We just have a racist president.
7:46
Speaker 1: Then we just gotta deal with a racist president. We
7:47
Speaker 1: gotta cracking and chief we've been dealing with me definitely,
7:49
Speaker 1: We definitely got to get any worse and worse and worse.
7:52
Speaker 1: And it's just and just take it. And once again,
7:54
Speaker 1: when people always say, why are you always calling certain
7:56
Speaker 1: white people crack? Because when you racist, bigoted white people
7:59
Speaker 1: will be called interesting. Leah, their father was breaking. Donald
8:04
Speaker 1: Trump was taping a message for Martin Luther King Junior day,
8:07
Speaker 1: Oh boy, oh you want to quote from Martin Luther
8:09
Speaker 1: King Junior. I gotta quote from Martin Luther King Junior.
8:12
Speaker 1: The ultimate tragedy is not the impression and cruelty by
8:14
Speaker 1: the bad people, but the silence over that by the
8:17
Speaker 1: good people. This is how I feel about all you
8:19
Speaker 1: so called good white people who can hear Donald Trump
8:21
Speaker 1: speak this racist rhetoric and not speak out about it.
8:24
Speaker 1: The ultimate tragedy is not the impression and cruelty by
8:26
Speaker 1: the bad people, but the silence over that by the
8:28
Speaker 1: good people. Now, he doesn't have any issues with immigration
8:31
Speaker 1: unless it's people of color, because he wants more people
8:33
Speaker 1: from Norway to come here. That's what he said. Why
8:35
Speaker 1: can't we have more people from places like Norway? He
8:37
Speaker 1: had some pom poom from Norway come to the United States.
8:39
Speaker 1: Saw that. As a man who smashed the chick from Norway,
8:42
Speaker 1: I can understand why he wouldn't want more women from
8:43
Speaker 1: norwhere here. But that has nothing to do it now. Wow,

Speaker 1: and work for like seventeen white people that are like
13:20
Speaker 1: the epitome of Donald Trump followers. I understand totally what

Speaker 1: and you have to tell those people. In the words
13:27
Speaker 1: of Martin Luther King Jr. Since it is MLK weekend,
13:29
Speaker 1: the ultimate tragedy is not the oppression and cruety by

Speaker 1: the bad people, but to silence over that by the
13:34
Speaker 1: good people. So if you're co signing Donald Trump still
13:36

Speaker 1: I do not believe it is possible that I am
16:58
Speaker 1: the biological father of its Wayne Brown. I have never
17:01
Speaker 1: acknowledged Dwayne Brown as my son, nor was I ever
17:04
Speaker 1: made aware of this birth until I was served with
17:06
Speaker 1: the petition filed in August. Why the young lady waits

17:16
Speaker 1: if he if he is to fall, he doesn't have
17:18
Speaker 1: to pay for the previous fifteen years. If he does,
17:20
Speaker 1: he does. Absolutely, you're gonna hold that little boy like
17:23
Speaker 1: birdman on him. Jesus, he will, all right, A Rick Russ,
17:28
Speaker 1: How would you get his attention if you were an
17:30
Speaker 1: aspiring rapper? Well, I'll tell you what one person did.
17:34
Speaker 1: Cedric Miller, twenty three years old, is a suspect who
17:37
Speaker 1: actually tried to rob a wingstop in order to get
17:41
Speaker 1: Rick Russ's attention. No, you didn't. Why are you saying
17:44
Speaker 1: things like this on the radios? Goods for what? For
17:47
Speaker 1: entertainment purposes? What? What does this fake store you telling
17:50
Speaker 1: us right now? I'm just telling you. He was a
17:51
Speaker 1: suspect and an attempted robbery at the wingstop in Memphis,
17:55
Speaker 1: and according to reports, he just wanted to make sure
17:58
Speaker 1: that Rick Russ would listen to his music at some point.
18:01
Speaker 1: You really think Rick Ross gonna listen to your music
18:03
Speaker 1: after you tried to rob one of his establishments. What
18:06
Speaker 1: what logic is that I'm going to do something good
18:09
Speaker 1: for you after you did something bad to me? What's
18:13
Speaker 1: up with y'all? He's probably thinking like, Yo, he's gonna
18:14
Speaker 1: think I kept it real. No, he went through a
18:19
Speaker 1: lot to try to get my attention. Man, I'm gonna
18:21
Speaker 1: sign this guy all right. Paul Wall, one of his
18:24
Speaker 1: closest friends, just got fired from United Airlines after sixteen years. Now,
18:29
Speaker 1: if you don't know what happened, Paul Wall was flying
18:31
Speaker 1: for free using one of those family passes, a buddy pass,
18:36
Speaker 1: and he said, wow, this is unbelievable. A close family
18:38
Speaker 1: friend was fired by United Airlines after sixteen years with
18:42
Speaker 1: no infractions for allowing me to fly on his pass
18:44
Speaker 1: to do charity work out of town. More details coming,
18:47
Speaker 1: please retweet now. According to Paul Wall, he flew on
18:49
Speaker 1: this pass plenty of times, but he said the airline
18:52
Speaker 1: started digging into his flight history after he went in
18:55
Speaker 1: on them on Twitter. So I guess Paul Wall had
18:57
Speaker 1: some mishoes, but United on Twitter want to rock the boat. Okay.
19:03
Speaker 1: You know when you fly on those passes you have
19:05
Speaker 1: to like you cannot do anything, can Paul? You kind
19:11
Speaker 1: of caused that on your Come on now now? United
19:14
Speaker 1: Airline said, we restrict this benefit to leisure travel. Mister
19:18
Speaker 1: Wall use these travel benefits for business purposes which our
19:21
Speaker 1: policy does not permit. Now, Paul Wall said that his
19:25
Speaker 1: friend is a combat to say bud veteran and he
19:28
Speaker 1: was actually very close to retirement after working with United
19:31
Speaker 1: for sixteen years. Paul, I can't believe that you was
19:33
Speaker 1: getting something for free and had the nerve to complaint. Paul,
19:37
Speaker 1: what is your problem? Paul? You was getting it for
19:39
Speaker 1: free and had the nerve to Complain's wrong with you? Bro?
19:42
Speaker 1: Come on, Paul Wall? You know better than that, right,
19:44
Speaker 1: So for everybody out there flying on your friend's past,
19:46
Speaker 1: just remember these things do happen. They don't play around.
19:49
Speaker 1: Did you offer to do anybody at United grill for free? Paul?
19:52
Speaker 1: Maybe that can move this over a little bit too
19:55
Speaker 1: late now, Sex, imagine getting your friend fire because you
19:58
Speaker 1: can retire after twenty years. He had four more years
20:00
Speaker 1: to go. What Angeli said is absolutely accurate. Paul Wall
20:04
Speaker 1: got his friend fired. Don't get on Twitter and act
20:06
Speaker 1: like you don't know why United fired and fight him.
20:08
Speaker 1: That's the fight because saying like it's my fault, all right, Well,
20:12
Speaker 1: I manage your lady, and that is your rumor report.

21:28
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. Everybody goes through what they
21:30
Speaker 1: go through, and all I could tell is my story.
21:33
Speaker 1: You know, I'm not He's trying to look for sympathy
21:34
Speaker 1: through it, right like that? So the album, it seems
21:37
Speaker 1: like you you're battling with drugs and alcohol heavy Yeah,
21:40
Speaker 1: are you really dad? Will I dab will? Yeah, don't
21:45

21:52
Speaker 1: but you've gotten better, you've said also day Yeah, I'm
21:58

22:03
Speaker 1: of you here? That's that's that's liquor in my coffee.
22:05
Speaker 1: It is my stuff. Actually, yeah, that is my gasoline.
22:10
Speaker 1: I invested in a whiskey company. It's called Stellhouse. I'm
22:13
Speaker 1: trying to grow up and be like puff Us the
22:15
Speaker 1: peach one. Yeah. Is that smart? Though? If you're dealing
22:18
Speaker 1: with some No, I'm good. I'm good. Yeah. I figure
22:25
Speaker 1: if I'm a drinking I might as well, you know
22:26
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, kind of yeah, on it and build
22:28
Speaker 1: something for myself. Yeah, are you? Are you big on
22:31
Speaker 1: a strology? Because you mentioned being a Gemini, I don't
22:34
Speaker 1: really know, like not too much about it. I just
22:36
Speaker 1: know that I'm a Gemini, Like, I'm definitely very very that.
22:40
Speaker 1: What's I mean, what's a characteristic of cancer, sensitive, emotional,
22:45
Speaker 1: hard exterior, softer interior. That's the duality you probably just
22:50
Speaker 1: know about being a Gemini though, because I just I
22:53
Speaker 1: think Gemini's out of all the signs, probably are the
22:55
Speaker 1: most like crazy. Oh yeah, I'm definitely a psycho the
23:00
Speaker 1: totally credit Patrick Bateman. What do you mean the cycle? Yeah,
23:03
Speaker 1: definitely a little crazy. But I think the bust so
23:05
Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of artists are geminized, and
23:08
Speaker 1: I think there's that duality in terms of, like, you know,
23:11
Speaker 1: your your life as an artist, you know what I'm saying,
23:13
Speaker 1: and everything that the music and art represents, and then
23:15
Speaker 1: that you're still a person at the end of the day.
23:17
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying that doctor Jackal, mister high
23:19
Speaker 1: you take that hide off, you still got to be
23:20
Speaker 1: that person when you go see moms, you know what
23:22
Speaker 1: I'm saying, when you go spend time with family. So
23:25
Speaker 1: I mean you're covering in blood on your album cover. Yeah,
23:27
Speaker 1: what what was that about. That's just a bad hangover.
23:31
Speaker 1: That's a really bad hang in blood. By the way,
23:35
Speaker 1: my man, God blessed the Godfather ever did say. Elvis
23:38
Speaker 1: Durin told us one time that if you if you're
23:41
Speaker 1: out and about and you wake up in the morning,
23:43
Speaker 1: it wasn't a good night if there's no blood on
23:45
Speaker 1: the pillow. Well oh wow, that's one way playing that. Yeah,
23:52
Speaker 1: all right, well let's talk about it anyway. You're ready
23:58
Speaker 1: to talk about that. But you had a situation with
24:00
Speaker 1: H ANDM. You had a clothing line that you did
24:02
Speaker 1: with them that was supposed to come out in March.
24:04
Speaker 1: In March, yeah, and then you had to step back
24:06
Speaker 1: from that. Yeah, so contractually you're able to it was
24:10
Speaker 1: I mean yeah, because contractually there's nothing in the contract
24:13
Speaker 1: that says if we do something racists, you get out
24:15
Speaker 1: the deal. You know what I'm saying. So we were
24:17
Speaker 1: just like, oh yeah, if the artists does something bad, yeah, instantly.
24:23
Speaker 1: But um, I mean when I saw that, you know,
24:26
Speaker 1: feeling how it felt, it wasn't even like a conversation.
24:29
Speaker 1: It was just like I'm out. You feel like people
24:32
Speaker 1: and like, get me out of this because it's it's
24:33
Speaker 1: not cool. I'm not putting my name on this, like
24:36
Speaker 1: it's not okay. Even with the mom I'm saying she
24:38
Speaker 1: didn't care about it and it was just light stuff.
24:40
Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's so big, you know what I'm saying, like,
24:43
Speaker 1: this is the world, Like this is the world right now,
24:45
Speaker 1: being as connected as we are, you know what I'm saying.
24:47
Speaker 1: With the Internet and things going viral and creating a
24:50
Speaker 1: conversation and a dialogue, it can happen that fast, and
24:52
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you got the whole world looking
24:54
Speaker 1: and watching and talking about it. And you know what
24:57
Speaker 1: I'm saying, I'm very very very like like guarded with
25:02
Speaker 1: what I put my name on. You know what I'm saying,
25:04
Speaker 1: Like who I do a record with what I attached
25:06
Speaker 1: my name to, what I coach on, because that's all
25:08
Speaker 1: you have is your name, you know what I'm saying, Like,
25:11
Speaker 1: that's your whole respect as a person. If I would
25:13
Speaker 1: do anything for a check and put my name on anything,
25:16
Speaker 1: even if I didn't like it or wear it or
25:17
Speaker 1: drink it or nothing like that, and who am I
25:20
Speaker 1: as a human being? But so I was excited about
25:24
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like that was a big
25:25
Speaker 1: opportunity to put clothes all around the world, you know
25:29
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, and do something that I actually liked,
25:33
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, and was cool with. And
25:34
Speaker 1: then I saw that happen and it was like, I'm
25:37
Speaker 1: not cool with this, Like I'm out how much money
25:39
Speaker 1: did you walk away from a lot? Millions and from
25:42
Speaker 1: a lot like a lot? Like it's not even like
25:46
Speaker 1: you can't miss what you don't have, you know what
25:47
Speaker 1: I'm saying. And I was just like, definitely, I mean,
25:50
Speaker 1: I definitely have plans. I'm saying I was buying as
25:54
Speaker 1: a house off that check, you know what I'm saying.
25:56
Speaker 1: But I've always been a big believer in Like, if
25:58
Speaker 1: you believe in yourself, then this isn't the last time
26:01
Speaker 1: it'll come around, you know what I'm saying. That value,
26:03
Speaker 1: my value didn't go nowhere, like my value to whatever
26:06
Speaker 1: they saw and me don't want to put that money
26:07
Speaker 1: up and get behind me. I still got that, you
26:10
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. The next the next opportunity that
26:12
Speaker 1: comes knocking when it's right, you know what I'm saying.
26:14
Speaker 1: If they apologize, and they and they hire apologize, would
26:19
Speaker 1: you would you open back up to even thinking about
26:21
Speaker 1: maybe doing business again with them? Would you? If they
26:24
Speaker 1: hire some money alities and some people that look like
26:26
Speaker 1: me in position of power where they can make better decisions,
26:29
Speaker 1: I would think about it. I mean, that's what it's
26:31
Speaker 1: like putting a band aid over something like the damage
26:34
Speaker 1: is done. The damage is definitely done. And I just
26:36
Speaker 1: me personally, I felt like their statement was pretty you know,
26:40
Speaker 1: it's pretty like the statement back. So was this a
26:43
Speaker 1: real move? A pos, it's a real move, Okay, absolutely
26:48
Speaker 1: nobody was there for millions and millions of dollars, just
26:51
Speaker 1: as I mean. But it's not even like I don't
26:52
Speaker 1: want to get too focused on the money because at
26:54
Speaker 1: the end of the day, like money can't buy everything, period.
26:57
Speaker 1: You know, I'm saying what I'm supposed to do, just
26:59
Speaker 1: have that money and me a terrible human being who's
27:01
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying promoting the company that's doing
27:04
Speaker 1: something like that, Like I don't care, like, but for you,
27:07
Speaker 1: this could be it could it could have been career
27:09
Speaker 1: suicide because you're a white rapper. Yeah, this happens next thing,
27:13
Speaker 1: you know, a couple of months from now. You see
27:15
Speaker 1: g easy with HM. Yes, it's great. Did you think
27:20
Speaker 1: you would build two years ago? Yeah? Still for the
27:23
Speaker 1: business side of things, because you did go to school
27:26
Speaker 1: and study the music business as well. Uh, this would
27:29
Speaker 1: have been a terrible move regardless. Yeah, but I just
27:31
Speaker 1: I'm really at the end of the day before business comes.
27:35
Speaker 1: You know, I'm some principles, just just being a human,
27:38
Speaker 1: and that's really what it comes down to. All we
27:41
Speaker 1: got more with G Easy. When we come back, don't move.
27:43
Speaker 1: It's a breakfast club. Good Morning, the breakfast club Morning.

Speaker 1: It wasn't all getting acceptance from the hip hop community
27:57
Speaker 1: for us. I don't know. I've been making music a
28:00
Speaker 1: long time. It's been hard to get anything to stick, period,
28:02
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. I was selling mixtapes out
28:04
Speaker 1: of my backpack in two thousand and six in downtown Oakland,
28:07

28:10
Speaker 1: by with a CD players Like it was. It was
28:15
Speaker 1: ugly and dry for a long long time, you know
28:17
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Even when it started to stick, it
28:19
Speaker 1: still wasn't you know what I'm saying, like what it
28:21
Speaker 1: was even now, like No Limits my biggest record ever,
28:24
Speaker 1: all these years later, you know what I'm saying. So
28:27
Speaker 1: it's been a long process in general. And how did
28:29
Speaker 1: that record happen? Because I read somewhere that asap. Rocky
28:32
Speaker 1: was in the studio next door, so it wasn't like
28:34

29:22
Speaker 1: I did my thing. Um, but this is the first
29:24
Speaker 1: time we did a song. He was he was in
29:26
Speaker 1: the studio right next to me, were just you know
29:28
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I marked in, tapped in and say
29:30
Speaker 1: what's up? And um, what about card that you've been
29:33
Speaker 1: working on? You rest out the cardy early, like before
29:36
Speaker 1: number one before she was yeah, yeah. I just think
29:40
Speaker 1: she's incredible period, even before like when her mixtape, you
29:44
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like I was just watching her
29:45
Speaker 1: and following her. I just felt like her brand, her
29:48
Speaker 1: whole image, her whole personality really was just this unapologetic
29:53
Speaker 1: just you know what I'm saying. She was hurt, she
29:55
Speaker 1: was comfortable on her skin. She was not holding back,
29:57
Speaker 1: not by no time for nothing. She was doing her
29:59
Speaker 1: and she was moved, she was moving. She was actually
30:01
Speaker 1: getting like you know what I'm saying on iTunes and
30:04
Speaker 1: like people were following and she really had like a
30:06
Speaker 1: fan base. And we played a show together and I
30:09
Speaker 1: met her backstage and then I went on to the
30:11
Speaker 1: crowd and watched like her perform, and that's I feel like,
30:15
Speaker 1: that's when you can really tell if somebody's like because
30:18
Speaker 1: you're right there, you know what I'm saying, it's not
30:19
Speaker 1: like in the studio, like all, let me punch in,
30:21
Speaker 1: let me clean this up, let me mix this. You're
30:23
Speaker 1: right there in front of people, and you have to
30:26
Speaker 1: win people over, you know what I'm saying, Like they're
30:28
Speaker 1: really just staring at you like this. I'm talking about
30:30
Speaker 1: like when I walked on stage over there for Rocky,
30:32
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, They're looking at me like
30:34
Speaker 1: like what So she did a thing and I was
30:36
Speaker 1: just like, she's a superstar. You got a record with
30:40
Speaker 1: Hailey called him and I yeah, and you're talking about it.
30:43
Speaker 1: I guess your girlfriend, you know, and I assume, and
30:46
Speaker 1: you say, y'all do drugs together. Whe It was ironic
30:48
Speaker 1: because this past week it was a picture floating around
30:51
Speaker 1: of her allegedly sniffing somewhere. Yeah, what's that about. I
30:56
Speaker 1: don't know. I figure, you know, I don't know. It's
31:04
Speaker 1: New Year's Day, It's Miami. You know what I'm saying.
31:06
Speaker 1: I'm on a Yeah what do you think I'm doing? Yeah?
31:11
Speaker 1: My name is Gerald. Yeah. You guys like when you
31:15
Speaker 1: see the pictures, Yeah, I mean, it's it's where this is, like,
31:19
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, We're in the middle of
31:21
Speaker 1: the water. You know what I'm saying, Like somebody with
31:23
Speaker 1: a mile long lean. That's a long lens, you know
31:26
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. And it's like, can I live like
31:29
Speaker 1: we're literally in the middle of nowhere enjoying ourselves. It's
31:31
Speaker 1: a holiday whatever, and you know that kind of thing
31:34
Speaker 1: like leaving restaurants and pop Rossey being on side. This
31:37
Speaker 1: is new to me, you know what I'm saying. So
31:39
Speaker 1: it's it's a weird thing not having that, you know,
31:42
Speaker 1: kind of just privacy to just kind of live like.
31:44
Speaker 1: It's a little weird. But I mean it's whatever. You
31:48
Speaker 1: think you're making her hot though her name is not Hanley,
31:50
Speaker 1: her name is Hales. Her name is Halsey. Yeah, yeah,
31:55
Speaker 1: thank you, do you? But but do you think you're
31:57
Speaker 1: making her hot? Like and we make each other hot? Yeah, yeah,
32:00
Speaker 1: we big up each other. No, I don't mean like that.
32:02
Speaker 1: I mean, like, you know, if I want to do drugs,
32:04
Speaker 1: I used to be able to do drugs, but now, yeah,
32:08
Speaker 1: who knows. Connect interesting story. I'll say that one for
32:15
Speaker 1: another time. You won't never tell that the way you
32:17
Speaker 1: always to say at a party. Yeah, I mean, yeah,
32:21
Speaker 1: that's that's yeah, it was. It was a birthday party.
32:25
Speaker 1: It was like a puff party. I'm inspired by puff parties. Yeah,
32:29
Speaker 1: lie um we met with Pamela Anderson. I'll leave it there, Damn.
32:33
Speaker 1: I know. I can't wait to hear this. And you
32:38
Speaker 1: said you like puff parties now kind of puffs, he said,
32:42
Speaker 1: you said, I don't know. Puff says he's partied with Fab,
32:46
Speaker 1: but he hasn't party party with Fab. I don't know
32:48
Speaker 1: what the party party means. Party party figure. Yeah, that's
32:55
Speaker 1: big bro man, that that's that's Coo I look up to.
32:57
Speaker 1: I got love for Puff, I haven't. I didn't always
33:00
Speaker 1: like Puff with his energy has changed a lot, or
33:03
Speaker 1: maybe my energy changed. It seems like a different positive way.
33:06
Speaker 1: Can we talk about the business aspect of your career
33:09
Speaker 1: for a second, because you did go to Loyola. Do
33:11
Speaker 1: you think you would be where you are today if
33:12
Speaker 1: you hadn't done that? You think so? You don't think it? Really,
33:16
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say it didn't help. I met my
33:18
Speaker 1: managers there, I met like a lot of my team.
33:20
Speaker 1: I shot my first videos when I got there, Like
33:22
Speaker 1: meeting somebody who just happened to have a camera, you know,
33:25
Speaker 1: got a lot of hands on experience. I wasn't like
33:29
Speaker 1: I've never I don't know, I didn't. I had trouble
33:31
Speaker 1: paying attention in school. I never really like that was
33:34
Speaker 1: never my thing. I did enough to get by. I
33:36
Speaker 1: got through it. But I just feel like you learned
33:38
Speaker 1: from doing. You learn from being, like in the field,
33:41
Speaker 1: getting your hands dirty, like just failing over and over
33:44
Speaker 1: and over, like getting on stage and boot off selling
33:47
Speaker 1: CDs and it not working, you know what I'm saying,
33:49
Speaker 1: putting out music and not sticking. I've been up long
33:51
Speaker 1: songs since my Space, you know what I'm saying, refreshing
33:54
Speaker 1: my page and it's sixty seven plays, you know what
33:57
Speaker 1: I mean, Like trying and not working. So I just
34:00
Speaker 1: feel like that my persistence and my work ethic and
34:04
Speaker 1: all that more soud than anything. When you would you
34:06
Speaker 1: encourage your child to go to college and I would
34:09
Speaker 1: encourage that, Well, I'm not having kids. You're talking about it,
34:12
Speaker 1: by the way, you're talking about I'm protecting sex on
34:14
Speaker 1: the album a couple of times. You're definitely gonna have
34:16
Speaker 1: some kids. Pull out. I don't you and I have kids? Yeah,
34:24
Speaker 1: I mean, who knows. I just I'm not at the
34:26
Speaker 1: place right now. Yeah, are there any privileges to being
34:30
Speaker 1: a white male in hip hop, because you know, I
34:32
Speaker 1: hear your story and you sound like you've had every
34:34
Speaker 1: the same ground and everybody else. Yeah, I'm a white male.
34:37
Speaker 1: I'm privileged everywhere, and I'm aware of that. Everything is
34:41
Speaker 1: easier for me period. In terms of music, I still
34:44
Speaker 1: have to work to get my voice heard. You know
34:46
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I didn't start rapping yesterday. I've been
34:49
Speaker 1: at this for over ten years, you know, but I
34:51
Speaker 1: am aware of that. When did you first become aware
34:53
Speaker 1: of your your privilege is a white male? As a
34:56
Speaker 1: white male, I mean growing up period, my whole life. Yeah,
35:01
Speaker 1: you saw differences between like you and you've been socially aware. Yeah. Yeah,
35:05
Speaker 1: the world and how it works and the world we
35:07
Speaker 1: still live in to this day. That's I said, I
35:11
Speaker 1: we can. I respect it. I respect the honesty and
35:13
Speaker 1: that an because people so many people act like they're
35:15
Speaker 1: not aware of their problem, and you have to be
35:17
Speaker 1: aware of your privilege. You use your privilege to combat prejudice.
35:21
Speaker 1: More would easy. When we come back, here is Cardi
35:23
Speaker 1: B with Bodette Yellow voting. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Ye,
35:27
Speaker 1: Charlomagne the guy. We all the breakfast club. We have
35:30
Speaker 1: g easy in the building. You had a song called
35:33
Speaker 1: everything will Be Okay off You when it's Dark Eyed albums.
35:35
Speaker 1: That's story true, true, you'll know about that. If his
35:39
Speaker 1: mother left his dad, correct me if I'm wrong. If
35:41
Speaker 1: your mother left your dad for another woman and then
35:43
Speaker 1: that woman overdose tone pills and you discovered the body
35:46
Speaker 1: in the basement, right, that's difficult. That would require therapy.
35:51
Speaker 1: Music is the music is definitely therapy. Actually, that verse
35:55
Speaker 1: was therapy. That's the first time I really told that story,
35:58
Speaker 1: like this is my best friend and I've never told
36:00
Speaker 1: him that story Like that was something that kept kind
36:02
Speaker 1: of like close, Um, why are you trying to make
36:05
Speaker 1: a go away like in your mind? I mean, I
36:08
Speaker 1: don't know, I don't know psychologically why people you know
36:11
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Bury, Well, we Bury, But that was
36:13
Speaker 1: definitely traumatic for me. I was I was with fifteen
36:15
Speaker 1: sixteen and you know the whole entire thing. I mean,
36:20
Speaker 1: you know, I talked about it in the verse. I say,
36:22
Speaker 1: my mom was, you know, with a woman, and at
36:24
Speaker 1: the time. It's a little more accepted now, but this is,
36:28
Speaker 1: you know what two thousand and four two thousand and five,
36:30
Speaker 1: Like my mom brings her around and she's like, this
36:33
Speaker 1: is my best friend, you know, And I'm like, okay,
36:36
Speaker 1: as a kid, like why are you sleeping in the
36:37
Speaker 1: same bed as your best friend? She's always with us,
36:39
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, This don't really feel like
36:41
Speaker 1: a best friend situation. And then coming to find out
36:43
Speaker 1: and then other kids being like why did your mom
36:46
Speaker 1: have a rainbow you know, sam bumper sticker on a car?
36:49
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. They didn't want to like
36:51
Speaker 1: ride in a car, feeling away like as a kid,
36:52
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, and then growing up becoming
36:54
Speaker 1: a man being like this, like if she loves her
36:57
Speaker 1: and she loves her, that's love. I don't give y'all
37:00
Speaker 1: respect that period, because she's doing for her what nobody
37:03
Speaker 1: else was, so coming to accept it coming to like
37:07
Speaker 1: and then I mean, anytime when you're a kid, you
37:08
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, and your parents are a rap
37:11
Speaker 1: and this other person comes in and then to how
37:12
Speaker 1: it be that you kind of have this like protectiveness,
37:15
Speaker 1: like my mom's my everything, Like she wore two jobs
37:18
Speaker 1: raising two boys, a single mom, Like that's who I
37:21
Speaker 1: work for. That's who I do it for, Like she's
37:23
Speaker 1: my everything, that's my queen. So having this other figure
37:26
Speaker 1: come in and then finally growing up, maturing and you
37:30
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, my mind opening up to being
37:32
Speaker 1: like accepting of this and learning to love her too,
37:37
Speaker 1: and then her kind of like spiraling into this addiction
37:40
Speaker 1: and hiding kind of in the basement, and then one
37:43
Speaker 1: night that happening and it just being like that happened,
37:48
Speaker 1: and now that's it. How did your mom feel about
37:50
Speaker 1: the song when she heard it? She cried? We both cried.
37:53
Speaker 1: I heard the first time I played it for her
37:56
Speaker 1: because she loves the song. Did you ever talk to
37:58
Speaker 1: your father about that's it? You? Because I'm sure that
38:00
Speaker 1: was traumatic for him too, having his wife believe for
38:02
Speaker 1: a new woman. Yeah. You ever talked to him about that? Yeah?
38:06
Speaker 1: I don't want to talk about it. This album had
38:10
Speaker 1: twenty songs on it, but you recorded over a hundred songs, yeah,
38:13
Speaker 1: and had to pick twenty. Who how does that process work?
38:16
Speaker 1: We put the boxing gloves on always catching phase in
38:18
Speaker 1: the studio. It was a lot. It was a lot,
38:21
Speaker 1: but I just um, it had been two years since
38:24
Speaker 1: the last album, and I built a studio in my house. O. Basually,
38:28
Speaker 1: I finally, I mean I was bouncing around forever, like
38:30
Speaker 1: from tour to tour, to tour the album, to tour
38:32
Speaker 1: it or whatever. So the last when I put the
38:35
Speaker 1: last album out, I toured that for nine months straight.
38:38
Speaker 1: And then I finally I cast a check. I bought
38:40
Speaker 1: a house and put a studio in. It was the
38:41
Speaker 1: first time I lived somewhere, like you know, moving to
38:44
Speaker 1: La and um, that studio was my safe place. Like
38:48
Speaker 1: I would go in every single night and work. And
38:50
Speaker 1: if you, I mean, this is what I know how
38:52
Speaker 1: to do. You put me in a workplace, I'm gid
38:56
Speaker 1: work right, you know what I'm saying. So I ended
38:57
Speaker 1: up with a lot of music. And while I was
39:00
Speaker 1: in that vibe, I just kind of going unconscious, like
39:02
Speaker 1: I'm just like, don't distract me, don't bother me, don't
39:04
Speaker 1: come in here. Just let me keep working and I'll
39:07
Speaker 1: part of my head I when it's done. And I
39:09
Speaker 1: was like, we got a lot of songs. You know,
39:12
Speaker 1: how do you get away We're rapping about all these
39:14
Speaker 1: smashing all these chicks. When you in a relationship, you're
39:16
Speaker 1: talking about chicks at maybe they do it together. Yeah,
39:21
Speaker 1: oh yeah, you live in a real rock star lifestyle.
39:24
Speaker 1: I come exactly as advertise. I thought that you would
39:28
Speaker 1: be a mess, like one of those like when you
39:30
Speaker 1: look at your album cover with I'm sure. I thought
39:36
Speaker 1: that you would just listening to your music. I thought
39:38
Speaker 1: you'd be an absolute mess. You seem to happen together.
39:40
Speaker 1: I'm all right, I haven't started drinking yet. Let's let's
39:42
Speaker 1: see where this going. Can you drink every day? No?
39:46
Speaker 1: You think I'm an alcoholic? Yes? Do you feel like
39:50
Speaker 1: you're socially awkward sometimes? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, I've seen you
39:54
Speaker 1: easy out and about you. I mean, I'm either or
39:56
Speaker 1: I'm either completely awkward or like the life of the
39:59
Speaker 1: party in between. I mentioned I think the first time
40:02
Speaker 1: I mention in person. Uh, his security was Drake so security. Yeah,
40:06
Speaker 1: and they was just telling me about how they they had,
40:09
Speaker 1: they had the time. It's to beat me up for
40:10
Speaker 1: years because of Drake. I ran it to him and
40:14
Speaker 1: in Houston and Charlemagne thank god, didn't come and I
40:17
Speaker 1: tried to go up on stage and run up there,
40:18
Speaker 1: and they made sure I didn't get on stage, had
40:20
Speaker 1: to see and I stayed in the stress that was
40:25
Speaker 1: running to get a picture with Drake. He was running
40:27
Speaker 1: to get a picture with Drake since they definitely wasn't
40:33
Speaker 1: the security anymore. Uh, not him anymore. I think he's
40:36
Speaker 1: went to weekend. I remember seeing Drake on stage and
40:39
Speaker 1: we could read his list and he was like, where's Charlemagne.
40:41
Speaker 1: He definitely asked what do you what do you do personally?
40:45
Speaker 1: To avoid being labeled as a culture vot. I can
40:48
Speaker 1: only be me. I'm like, you know, I wear what
40:51
Speaker 1: I like to wear, make the music that I would
40:54
Speaker 1: like to listen to. You know what I'm saying. I
40:56
Speaker 1: do what I like to do. I'm just myself. That's
40:59
Speaker 1: you know, That's all you can be. You can't read,
41:01
Speaker 1: you can't try to disguise yourself as something else. You
41:04
Speaker 1: just on the record, crashing burn. You say I'll be
41:07
Speaker 1: selling dreams. I know she's down to buy voices. In
41:10
Speaker 1: my head tell me I should be honest, but I
41:11
Speaker 1: don't pay attention. I don't hear. Why are you lying
41:14
Speaker 1: to these women? Gez, dreams are for selling businesses. You
41:18

Speaker 1: Then all right, well, let's get to the room as
45:40
Speaker 1: talk Oprah. This is the rumor report with Angela ye
45:48
Speaker 1: breakfast club. Well, sal I'll posted on Instagram a couple
45:55
Speaker 1: of days ago a couple of photos with Oprah Winfrey
45:57
Speaker 1: and Harvey Weinstein. And one of those though, she is
46:00
Speaker 1: kissing Harvey Weinstein's cheek, and he said, when you have
46:03
Speaker 1: been part of the problem for decades, but suddenly they
46:06
Speaker 1: all think you are the solution. And then he said, oh,
46:09
Speaker 1: I forgot. That's right. You'd heard the rumors, but you
46:11
Speaker 1: had no idea. He was actually serially assaulting young, starry
46:14
Speaker 1: eyed actresses, who in turn had no idea what they
46:17
Speaker 1: were getting into. My bad And then he put the
46:19
Speaker 1: hashtag sanctimonious Hollywood, listen, I'm not the biggest proponent of
46:24
Speaker 1: Opra Winfrey running in twenty twenty, but that is just
46:26
Speaker 1: a reach, Like how are you getting mad at her
46:29
Speaker 1: for a picture she took about her took with Harvey
46:31
Speaker 1: Weinstein before everybody knew Harvey Weinstein was the serial sexual
46:36
Speaker 1: assault that he was all right, doesn't make any sense?
46:39
Speaker 1: And then stupid Jannita broad Rich, She's a seventy five
46:42
Speaker 1: year old retired nurse, also tweeted out, Hey, Oprah, funny,
46:46
Speaker 1: I've never heard you mentioned my name? Can you hear me? Now?
46:49
Speaker 1: Guess not? My rapist was? Is your friend Bill Clinton?
46:52
Speaker 1: Why would she even know about that? Though? That's crazy,
46:55
Speaker 1: like how was she supposed to know all these things
46:56
Speaker 1: that's going on in other people? And these are allegations
46:59
Speaker 1: now speaking Alley gaitions, the woman Violet Paley who was
47:02
Speaker 1: saying that James Franco forced her head into his lap
47:05
Speaker 1: while his penis was exposed, is saying that she was
47:08
Speaker 1: in a consensual sexual relationship with James Franco when they
47:12
Speaker 1: were sitting in a car and he pressured her into
47:14
Speaker 1: performing oral sex on him, something she had not done
47:17
Speaker 1: to him before. She was an aspiring filmmaker, and she
47:20
Speaker 1: said the power dynamic was really off. Well, some people
47:23
Speaker 1: are now questioning her because of a tweet that she
47:26
Speaker 1: put up just a few months ago. She had tweeted out,
47:29
Speaker 1: I like planning ways to ruin someone's life the moment
47:31
Speaker 1: I meet them. Now, Violet Paley is saying to TMZ,
47:35
Speaker 1: I used Twitter to make jokes most of the time.
47:37
Speaker 1: It was clearly a joke. I'm sorry if I offended anyone,
47:40
Speaker 1: and I think most people know it was a joke,
47:41
Speaker 1: and the people milking it are trump like batrolls. So
47:44
Speaker 1: I'm not deleting it and letting their psychotic twist on
47:46
Speaker 1: a dumb joke win. So they're using that against her now,
47:50
Speaker 1: all right, Keeping up at the Kardashians, find out something
47:52
Speaker 1: great that happened from watching that show. X NFL lineman
47:56
Speaker 1: Brandon Albert decided to donate one million dollars, that is,
48:00
Speaker 1: to Alexandria. How's his mission now, Here's what he had
48:03
Speaker 1: to say. We just want to thank you, Kim for
48:06
Speaker 1: bringing your amazing crew here for Alexandria House, and what
48:10
Speaker 1: we'd like to offer to you is a gift of stories.
48:14
Speaker 1: We'd like to start with Madison. Most people don't understand,
48:17
Speaker 1: you know, the homeless. They think that, oh, you have
48:19
Speaker 1: to being a bad kid, you have to have run away.
48:21
Speaker 1: I was an athlete and for whatever reason, my mom
48:26
Speaker 1: she just couldn't deal. She was on drugs and she
48:29
Speaker 1: kicked me out the house at seventeen, and I found
48:32
Speaker 1: myself homeless. So that was the episode he was watching
48:35
Speaker 1: of Alexandria House. It's a shelter for homeless women and
48:38
Speaker 1: homeless women with kids in LA. While he was watching
48:40
Speaker 1: that episode, he said they really hit home for him
48:42
Speaker 1: because he grew up in a single parent home where
48:44
Speaker 1: his mom and aunt worked many jobs to make ends meet.
48:46
Speaker 1: So he donated a million dollars to Alexandria House. And
48:50
Speaker 1: right now they're saying that they plan to buy another
48:52
Speaker 1: complex to accommodate the six hundred or sold people that
48:55
Speaker 1: they turn away every month because they just don't have space.
48:58
Speaker 1: And they would not have been able to do that
48:59
Speaker 1: without Brandon's donation. So that's a beautiful situation. Now rayj
49:04
Speaker 1: is being sued and he's being sued for thirty million
49:07
Speaker 1: dollars because of his Scootie bikes. Someone by the name
49:10
Speaker 1: of Jane Paul is saying that he and Rayja spoke
49:12
Speaker 1: about starting that business to market electric scooter bikes back
49:15
Speaker 1: in twenty fifteen, and he thought that a RAYJS celebrity
49:18
Speaker 1: would be helpful in pushing that bike out to the masses.
49:21
Speaker 1: And he says ray Ja agreed to become an investor
49:23
Speaker 1: and an endorser. But then later on, I guess he's
49:27
Speaker 1: saying that RAYJ just basically stole the idea from him.
49:30
Speaker 1: Now RAYJ saying it was his idea. So this thirty
49:32
Speaker 1: million dollar lawsuit is a shakedown. All right. Well I'm
49:36
Speaker 1: Angela Yee and that is your rumor report. All right,
49:38
Speaker 1: thank you, miss ye Charla. Scooty Bike, Oh yeah, you

Speaker 1: old man. Donkey of the Day for Friday, January twelve
50:45
Speaker 1: goes to Dope forty five, our celebrity in chief and
50:48
Speaker 1: his biggoted bass Donald J. Trump. This is the Donald's
50:51
Speaker 1: first donkey at twenty eighteen. But we casting a wide
50:54
Speaker 1: net with this one because this is going to his
50:56
Speaker 1: biggoted basse, the people who continue to support Donald Trump
50:59
Speaker 1: in spite of his latent racism, bigotry, prejudice, misogyny and
51:02
Speaker 1: all around bullcock. Got now, if you haven't heard. On
51:05
Speaker 1: Thursday yesterday, the White House had a meeting about Caribbean
51:07
Speaker 1: and African immigrants, and after an attendee proposed to restore
51:10
Speaker 1: protections for immigrants from Haitia, El Salvador and some African
51:14
Speaker 1: nations ravaged by war and natural disasters is part of
51:16
Speaker 1: a larger immigration deal. Donald Trump, according to The Washington Post,
51:20
Speaker 1: asked the question, why are we having all these people
51:22
Speaker 1: from sugar honey, iced tea whole countries come here? You
51:26
Speaker 1: don't believe me, Let's go to CNN to Don Lemon.
51:28
Speaker 1: He's more of a reputable source than me. The President
51:31
Speaker 1: of the United States is racist. All of us already
51:35
Speaker 1: knew that. Today, President Trump, talking with lawmakers in the
51:38
Speaker 1: Oval Office about immigrants from Haiti, from El Salvador and Africa, said,
51:41
Speaker 1: and I quote, why are we having all these people
51:44
Speaker 1: from coal countries come here? And sinning has told that.
51:47
Speaker 1: He went on to say, why do we need more Haitians?
51:50
Speaker 1: Take them out? Let's be Claire, The only shole I
51:53
Speaker 1: see on this planet is Donald Trump's mouthful. Kay. Once again,
51:56
Speaker 1: for the final time, racist, bigoted white people are and
51:59
Speaker 1: will be referred to as cracker ass crackers in white devils. Okay,
52:02
Speaker 1: Donald Trump is the cracking in chief. And if you're
52:04
Speaker 1: more mad about me calling racist biggest crackers than you
52:07
Speaker 1: are having a president who builds walls instead of bridges,
52:10
Speaker 1: then you're part of the problem. My guy, I Joe
52:13
Speaker 1: Wright eighty six on Twitter said this morning is crazy.
52:15
Speaker 1: Donald Trump supporters will make racist remarks but don't like
52:19
Speaker 1: to be called racist. Now you're getting all that energy
52:22
Speaker 1: back and didn't something? All right, let me tell you something. Man.
52:24
Speaker 1: If I know my Haitians like I know my Haitians, Okay,
52:27
Speaker 1: Donald Trump should be sick by Tuesday, all right. I
52:29
Speaker 1: expect Donald Trump to be coughing up a frog or
52:31
Speaker 1: turning into one by Tuesday. You want to call places
52:34
Speaker 1: like Africa, House Salvador and Haiti sholes. But when you
52:37
Speaker 1: start having an uncontrollable sweat and your stomach starts rumbling
52:41
Speaker 1: and you lose all your appetiting, then you start feeling
52:43
Speaker 1: like you have a terrible case of diarrhea, and you
52:45
Speaker 1: run to the bathroom to defecate, mister president, but instead
52:48
Speaker 1: you throw up and instead of vomit, feces comes out
52:51
Speaker 1: your mouth. Then you will understand that your mouth has
52:53
Speaker 1: been turned into an actual shole. Trump when includes bombs
52:57
Speaker 1: from my Haitian master right with him? Dolls at Now,
53:02
Speaker 1: Donald Trump has showed me a long time ago who
53:04
Speaker 1: he is, and I believe him. My question is this
53:06
Speaker 1: to his bigoted base to the people who voted for him.
53:09
Speaker 1: Why y'all still trying to act like y'all don't believe
53:11
Speaker 1: him now. I don't think everyone who voted for Trump
53:13
Speaker 1: is a racist, but I do believe in this moment
53:15
Speaker 1: everyone who continues to still support Trump is definitely racist.
53:19
Speaker 1: If you're not racist and you're an accomplish the racism, Okay,
53:22
Speaker 1: we all know all white people on prejudice, that's just
53:26
Speaker 1: the ridiculous notion. But since it's Martin Luther King Junior Weekend,
53:29
Speaker 1: let me give you a quote from MLK Junior. Okay,
53:31
Speaker 1: MLK said, the ultimate tragedy is not the oppression and
53:35
Speaker 1: cruelty by the bad people, but the silence over that
53:39
Speaker 1: by the good people. If you are a so called
53:41
Speaker 1: good white person, prove it. Use your privilege to come
53:44
Speaker 1: back prejudice. If you are defending Donald Trump at this point, cool,
53:47
Speaker 1: I like overt racist. I like knowing what people standing.
53:50
Speaker 1: Let's draw a line in the sand. You don't like niggas, fine,
53:52
Speaker 1: I don't like racist biggot crack ass crackers. We can
53:55
Speaker 1: segregate ourselves. Okay, if I know you're a racist, I
53:57
Speaker 1: know to stay away from you. But the racist who
53:59
Speaker 1: are open with the racism want. The problem is those
54:02
Speaker 1: of you who are silent about what Trump is doing.
54:05
Speaker 1: You're the problem. You're a real American. You believe in equality, liberty,
54:09
Speaker 1: and justice for all. If you believe that, then why
54:10
Speaker 1: aren't you speaking out? Okay, this has nothing to do
54:13
Speaker 1: with conservative and liberal, Republican and Democrat. This has to
54:16
Speaker 1: do it right versus wrong, good versus evil, God versus Satan.
54:19
Speaker 1: This is about having a commander in chief that builds bridges,
54:21
Speaker 1: not walls. It's time to pick aside. I'm not trying
54:23
Speaker 1: to be diplomatic with racists. We don't negotiate with terrorists.
54:26
Speaker 1: Donald Trump's whole bigger than base can suck my big
54:29
Speaker 1: black zozo. Okay, all right, to the make American to
54:33
Speaker 1: the make America great again crowd. You do know America
54:35
Speaker 1: is great because the immigrants. America was built by immigrants.
54:38
Speaker 1: Salute to Philip Mudd. He is a white lele He's

Speaker 1: Don Lemon last night, and he was so eloquent speaking
54:48
Speaker 1: on the subject of America being built by people from
54:51
Speaker 1: these s wholes that Trump talks about. Now. I love
54:53

55:16
Speaker 1: dirty Catholics who didn't belong in a Protestant country. Polers
55:20
Speaker 1: built this country one hundred and ten years ago. They
55:22
Speaker 1: were called slopers and slant eyes. I worked for polars

Speaker 1: who protected this country after nine to eleven. I'm proud
55:29
Speaker 1: today to be polar and I want a T shirt

56:25
Speaker 1: tells a honky like me, we're no different than we

56:31
Speaker 1: that we learned when we call the Chinese man a
56:34
Speaker 1: slant I, when we call the man from Gualimala a
56:36
Speaker 1: spick and a wet back, and we call a black
56:38

56:41
Speaker 1: you are still hurt, it's still stun but simple and plain.
56:46
Speaker 1: That's it, baby, Okay, that's what it's about. This is
56:49
Speaker 1: about the good people, the Americans of all racist genders
56:52

Speaker 1: about it? You got all right? I appreciate. But I
59:40
Speaker 1: tweeted about it and that's how we got Jason Mitchell
59:42
Speaker 1: to come on the show about Angel Appreciate. It was
59:45
Speaker 1: great and then thank you shot my shot and I said,
59:47
Speaker 1: we would love to have you come on up here,
59:49
Speaker 1: and it worked out. That's my bo We got the
59:51
Speaker 1: creator of the show right here here, the first black
59:54
Speaker 1: woman to win a Emmy for Comedy writing. Correct. Yeah,
1:00:00
Speaker 1: it's kind of crazy. He told me last night that
1:00:01
Speaker 1: you want to be to Kanye West of writing. Yeah, yeah,
1:00:04
Speaker 1: I think because I think my mission is too. It's
1:00:06
Speaker 1: interesting because a lot of people know me from Masks
1:00:08
Speaker 1: from None and they know the things given episode, which
1:00:11
Speaker 1: I was very honored to want to m me four.
1:00:13
Speaker 1: But I think, to me, you know, the shy is
1:00:15
Speaker 1: another It's another color in my voice, and I kind
1:00:18
Speaker 1: of want to keep surprising people. That's the thing we're
1:00:20
Speaker 1: talking about Kanye and like every album felt so much
1:00:23
Speaker 1: different than the last one. You always didn't even know
1:00:25
Speaker 1: who it was the same artist. And that's what I'm doing.
1:00:27
Speaker 1: I keep surprising people. I want people to kind of
1:00:29
Speaker 1: like be like always be guessing, like what am I
1:00:32
Speaker 1: gonna do next? But it's so different from mask there
1:00:34
Speaker 1: and none absolutely in Chicago's a hard place to represent well.
1:00:38
Speaker 1: But obviously you're from there and commons and executive producer,
1:00:41
Speaker 1: but people from Chicago will raise hell, oh my god,
1:00:44
Speaker 1: and they they be you know, nitpicking some things they
1:00:46
Speaker 1: didn't got at me. But that's my thing. You know.
1:00:48
Speaker 1: I don't ever want to sit there and go, Okay,
1:00:50
Speaker 1: I got it, I'm good. I don't need to know input,
1:00:53
Speaker 1: you know, to me. I was talking to CHARLETTA. Mayne
1:00:55
Speaker 1: last night. It's like, I feel like the audience is
1:00:56
Speaker 1: such a huge part of my career, all of our career.
1:01:00
Speaker 1: We can't do this without them, and I really really
1:01:03
Speaker 1: appreciate their feedback. I want to hear from them explaining
1:01:05
Speaker 1: the shot a little bit. It's not just about the
1:01:07
Speaker 1: shot time. It talks about gun violence and the trickle effects.
1:01:09
Speaker 1: To talk to people about what was your mindset when
1:01:12
Speaker 1: you created this, well, I was, you know, it was
1:01:14
Speaker 1: like three years ago when I wrote the pilot, and
1:01:16
Speaker 1: I was living in Los Angeles, and you know, and
1:01:18
Speaker 1: my family still lives in Chicago. I've always run back
1:01:20
Speaker 1: there all the time, and I just feel so connected
1:01:22
Speaker 1: to the city. And I was watching all these news
1:01:24
Speaker 1: stories like it was really hot in the news, like
1:01:26
Speaker 1: three years ago. It was just the gun violence to death.
1:01:29
Speaker 1: It was just getting to be really out of control.
1:01:32
Speaker 1: It it is too crazy. But I think, you know,
1:01:35
Speaker 1: the tough thing is, you know the news sometimes they
1:01:36
Speaker 1: get bored with the story and move on. So it's like,
1:01:39
Speaker 1: you know, the people are still there, They're still struggling
1:01:41
Speaker 1: with things. And so I was just watching it, and
1:01:43
Speaker 1: I was seeing people go into the city and reporting
1:01:45
Speaker 1: on it, and which I appreciate at the same time
1:01:47
Speaker 1: with these are foreigners going into my city who don't
1:01:49
Speaker 1: know what it's like to survival when they're there, who
1:01:51
Speaker 1: don't know what it's like to run the streets in
1:01:52
Speaker 1: the summer there, who just don't know the heartbeat of
1:01:55
Speaker 1: the city. And I know the heartbeat. I used to
1:01:57
Speaker 1: fall asleep to it every night, and so for me,
1:01:59
Speaker 1: I was like, I want to be able to tell
1:02:00
Speaker 1: the story. And I was reading so much like Baldwin
1:02:02
Speaker 1: at the time, a lot of lengths in Hughes, and
1:02:04
Speaker 1: I was saying how they would tell stories about us
1:02:08
Speaker 1: and really paying a really vivid picture of who we
1:02:09
Speaker 1: are as a community. And I thought to myself, I
1:02:12
Speaker 1: was like, oh, I want to. I want to try
1:02:13
Speaker 1: to do this for Chicago because I feel like there
1:02:15
Speaker 1: wasn't any humanity and behind the headlines, there were just numbers.
1:02:18
Speaker 1: There were just statistics. And I know those people, and
1:02:21
Speaker 1: I think there's a story behind every statistic, and I
1:02:23
Speaker 1: kind of want to tell their story so people would
1:02:25
Speaker 1: not be so desensitized to the deaths, because I think
1:02:28
Speaker 1: we have been to humanize in the public eye, and
1:02:30
Speaker 1: I think that's problematic. Now I know you have a
1:02:33
Speaker 1: love for a different world. You call yourself a human Grady, Yeah. Yeah.
1:02:37
Speaker 1: After learning what we learned about Bill Colby, how do
1:02:39
Speaker 1: you separate the art from the artists? You know, I
1:02:43
Speaker 1: think it was devastating for me because the Cosby show
1:02:47
Speaker 1: In a Different World literally changed the course of my life,
1:02:50
Speaker 1: Like I wouldn't be sitting here for one for those
1:02:52
Speaker 1: two shows. It was like a life jacket from me,
1:02:55
Speaker 1: you know, growing up on the South Side of Chicago,
1:02:57
Speaker 1: as like, you know, a kid living at my grandmother's house.
1:02:59
Speaker 1: So what he did may break my heart, but it
1:03:03
Speaker 1: doesn't it doesn't take away, you know, the character of
1:03:07
Speaker 1: Whitley Gilbert. It doesn't make you know, these phenomenal episodes
1:03:12
Speaker 1: of television go away. That's something we all remember that
1:03:13
Speaker 1: episode with Titia Campbell and the HIV episode and I'm
1:03:16
Speaker 1: talking about the La riots or the phenomenal episode called
1:03:19
Speaker 1: Mammy Dearis where they sort of deal with the sort
1:03:21
Speaker 1: of dark skinned light skinned thing. I mean, those things,
1:03:24
Speaker 1: those memories are ingrained into my mind. Like that doesn't
1:03:28
Speaker 1: make all that go away. That still resonates inside of me,
1:03:32
Speaker 1: and so it was really tough. But for me, I
1:03:35
Speaker 1: always it's not gonna make me feel any less joyful
1:03:38
Speaker 1: when I watched that show, or if I'm filling down,
1:03:41
Speaker 1: I'll put it on and I'll just feel like I'm
1:03:43
Speaker 1: at home. But that show made me go to Hempton.
1:03:44
Speaker 1: That was the reason why I would buy the university. Yeah,
1:03:46
Speaker 1: because human is kind of like HU the way does
1:03:49
Speaker 1: the casts. Yeah, you know, it changed so many of
1:03:53
Speaker 1: our lives and that's such a huge impact on us.
1:03:55
Speaker 1: I don't think you can throw the baby out with
1:03:58
Speaker 1: the bathwater on that one. You wanted to be a
1:04:00
Speaker 1: writer since you were young, like seven years old. How
1:04:02
Speaker 1: did you know you wanted to write for television. I
1:04:04
Speaker 1: just I just knew how much I loved television. You know,
1:04:07
Speaker 1: I always say I grew up in the two parent household.
1:04:09
Speaker 1: My mom on the TV. So it's like I I
1:04:12
Speaker 1: was just it really brought me so much joy that
1:04:15
Speaker 1: I wanted to be a part of it. Um. And
1:04:18
Speaker 1: I felt like, you know TV when you're you know,
1:04:21
Speaker 1: growing up and in the city, that TV teaches you
1:04:23
Speaker 1: how to dream. It teaches you what to dream about. UM.
1:04:26
Speaker 1: And that's really what it did for me. And so
1:04:28
Speaker 1: I was kind to say, I want to be a
1:04:29
Speaker 1: part of that. And then, you know, when I was
1:04:31
Speaker 1: in fifth grade, my teacher said, I really liked reading
1:04:33
Speaker 1: your papers. And I was like why and she said,
1:04:37
Speaker 1: because you write the way you speak. And I just remember,
1:04:39
Speaker 1: I just remember that, and I think that's why it's
1:04:41
Speaker 1: so important for teachers to really highlight the kids what
1:04:44
Speaker 1: they do well, because I was really told, I was
1:04:46
Speaker 1: told the early age, like you speak well, you write well,
1:04:49
Speaker 1: you enjoy reading, you know. And I also loved watch
1:04:52
Speaker 1: the TV. So when I got older, my mom was like, Okay,
1:04:55
Speaker 1: what you're gonna do with your life. I kind of
1:04:56
Speaker 1: combine my two favorite things, which was writing and television,
1:04:59
Speaker 1: and and I'm majored in writing producing a television at
1:05:02
Speaker 1: Columbia College in Chicago because I wasn't ready to leave
1:05:04
Speaker 1: Chicago yet, so I would go out to State. I
1:05:07
Speaker 1: was like, nah, nah, I want to stay here. Yeah,
1:05:09
Speaker 1: so I went to college. You know, I'm so happy
1:05:11
Speaker 1: I got to go to college in Chicago because you know,
1:05:14
Speaker 1: my university was like down to downtown Chicago and it
1:05:17
Speaker 1: was amazing. We have more with Lena Ways when we
1:05:19
Speaker 1: come back. Don't Moves to Breakfast Club, Go Morning Morning.
1:05:22
Speaker 1: Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Sharlowen the guy. We
1:05:26
Speaker 1: all the Breakfast Club. We have Lena Ways in the building, actress, producer, screenwriter,
1:05:31
Speaker 1: ye Now for the show I'm Master. And then how
1:05:33
Speaker 1: many of those things that you wrote about our real
1:05:35
Speaker 1: life stories? Because there's some random like a masturbating on
1:05:39
Speaker 1: the trains the rest. Well, here's the thing I didn't.
1:05:42
Speaker 1: I wasn't a writer on the show. Uh, And so
1:05:44
Speaker 1: like a lot of that stuff comes from Alan Yang
1:05:47
Speaker 1: and a season Sorry, that's them, you know, pulling from
1:05:49
Speaker 1: their own life experiences. The first time I wrote on
1:05:52
Speaker 1: it was for the Thanksgiving episode, and I didn't want
1:05:54
Speaker 1: to because and then you went and wanted Emmy for
1:05:58
Speaker 1: true True. I'm very grateful and I think Um. I
1:06:01
Speaker 1: really didn't want it to be muddled, you know, because
1:06:03
Speaker 1: I'm a writer first, and I thought I was like, oh,
1:06:06
Speaker 1: I don't want people thinking, oh, well, she writes on
1:06:08
Speaker 1: this show and she starts on It's like, no, I
1:06:10
Speaker 1: didn't write anything. In season one. They met me and
1:06:12
Speaker 1: they were like, okay, we had another idea for this character.
1:06:14
Speaker 1: We thought she was gonna be some chick that may
1:06:16
Speaker 1: have been a love interest for dev like, but we
1:06:19
Speaker 1: liked that you're a black lesbian and you know, have
1:06:21
Speaker 1: interest in swags. We're gonna rewrite all these other scripts
1:06:23
Speaker 1: and make her like you. So I was like, okay, cool.
1:06:25
Speaker 1: So um. So I really trusted them, and they knew
1:06:28
Speaker 1: my voice and they really appreciated my cadence. I was like,
1:06:30
Speaker 1: all right, cool, let's do this. Um. But then in
1:06:32
Speaker 1: season two, when I circled back with a season we're
1:06:34
Speaker 1: talking about just like life stories, I told him about
1:06:37
Speaker 1: my coming out story and they were really entertained by it.
1:06:40
Speaker 1: And I didn't think my coming out story it was
1:06:42
Speaker 1: that extraordinary or fascinating. I maybe because it was mine,
1:06:45
Speaker 1: but they were like, no, that's an episode. And I
1:06:48
Speaker 1: was like okay. And then and and he's just like
1:06:50
Speaker 1: we should get angela basket to play your mom. I
1:06:52
Speaker 1: was like, okay, keep wishing. Uh. And then and then
1:06:56
Speaker 1: Angelo was like she you know, she read the script
1:06:58
Speaker 1: and she was like, yeah, I'd love to tell like
1:07:00
Speaker 1: play with you guys and do this. The Emmy was
1:07:03
Speaker 1: icing like I had such an amazing experience to doing that,
1:07:06
Speaker 1: and the response I got was phenomenal. I didn't I
1:07:08
Speaker 1: didn't know how much the culture needed that episode of television.
1:07:12
Speaker 1: I really really didn't, because so many people reached out
1:07:14
Speaker 1: and I was like, finally, like, we're seeing someone that
1:07:17
Speaker 1: reflects us, and you're telling our story. And I think
1:07:20
Speaker 1: for me, I just sort of I didn't care if
1:07:23
Speaker 1: when I walk into a room the energy changes. I
1:07:25
Speaker 1: didn't care to shout from the rooftops like yeah, I'm
1:07:27
Speaker 1: proud to be black, I'm proud to be gay, I'm
1:07:29
Speaker 1: proud to be a woman. And then I realized how
1:07:31
Speaker 1: much of an anomaly I was in the industry, because
1:07:34
Speaker 1: if you look at how many black people are in
1:07:35
Speaker 1: Hollywood and how many out gay Black people there are
1:07:38
Speaker 1: in Hollywood, the numbers just don't add up. But I
1:07:41
Speaker 1: think for me, what I hope is with my success
1:07:43
Speaker 1: and just my career and my trajectory. I hope that
1:07:46
Speaker 1: somebody looks at me and goes, you know what, maybe
1:07:49
Speaker 1: it ain't that bad. Maybe I should just like stop
1:07:51
Speaker 1: trying to be pretending to be something I'm not. I
1:07:54
Speaker 1: think it's the confidence. I think it's the confidence that's intriguing.
1:07:57
Speaker 1: It's not the fact that you're black and your gain,
1:07:58
Speaker 1: women's affect, that you're unapologetically all of that. People they
1:08:02
Speaker 1: could be that confident. It's interesting because I think some
1:08:05
Speaker 1: people are really confident. I think there's just a level
1:08:07
Speaker 1: of fear of I don't know, I don't know what
1:08:09
Speaker 1: they're afraid. I can't speak to it because that's not
1:08:11
Speaker 1: my experience. But I see it all the time where
1:08:14
Speaker 1: I see people who I know, our family, but they
1:08:17
Speaker 1: acted as that they ain't time that you were scared. No, No,
1:08:22
Speaker 1: my boy, Justine Simon, who created your white people, I
1:08:24
Speaker 1: remember because I didn't. I never thought I would be
1:08:26
Speaker 1: an actor or a public person. But I remember when
1:08:29
Speaker 1: we were in the process of Gotten the Sundance, and
1:08:32
Speaker 1: we knew that, you know, we knew Justin was gonna
1:08:34
Speaker 1: be doing a lot of interviews and all that kind
1:08:35
Speaker 1: of stuff, and Justin I had a conversation where we
1:08:37
Speaker 1: were like, we will never ever pretend to be something
1:08:41
Speaker 1: we aren't when we get out there in public eye,
1:08:42
Speaker 1: people need to hear that. You know. You get a
1:08:44
Speaker 1: lot of emails for ask ye about that and me
1:08:46
Speaker 1: and my wife. People people always inquire advantage I want
1:08:52
Speaker 1: to come out and how can I come out? Like
1:08:54
Speaker 1: they don't know when we get there. You get that
1:08:55
Speaker 1: a lot. When people like they get that a lot.
1:08:57
Speaker 1: So it's glad to people hear your story. Yeah, do
1:08:59
Speaker 1: you think it's everybody these business though? Like some people
1:09:01
Speaker 1: choose to come out to closet and some people are
1:09:03
Speaker 1: just like, my sexuality isn't your business? You know, I
1:09:06
Speaker 1: think that argument hell water a little bit longer ago,
1:09:11
Speaker 1: but now I think it's imperative that, especially if you're
1:09:14
Speaker 1: a person of color, because the truth is there. You know.
1:09:17
Speaker 1: For me, when I was a young black girl who
1:09:20
Speaker 1: knew I was different, was watching TV. I would always
1:09:23
Speaker 1: be staring at the TV set looking for myself and
1:09:26
Speaker 1: I didn't see me. And when you don't see yourself,
1:09:29
Speaker 1: you start to think that you don't matter, or you
1:09:32
Speaker 1: start to think that something is wrong with you. So
1:09:34
Speaker 1: for me, I take it as a responsibility to be
1:09:38
Speaker 1: out as hell, you know, black as hell, female as hell.
1:09:42
Speaker 1: So that way, when some young brown kid is sitting
1:09:45
Speaker 1: at home and turn on YouTube and watching y'all or
1:09:48
Speaker 1: turns on Netflix watch Master of None, or is watching
1:09:50
Speaker 1: The Shy or whatever it is, you know, they will say, oh,
1:09:56
Speaker 1: that's me, and she's okay, and she seems to be
1:09:59
Speaker 1: happy and doing quite well for herself. So you know what,
1:10:02
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be brave and be myself and be out
1:10:05
Speaker 1: because if she can do it and survive, then maybe
1:10:08
Speaker 1: so can I. School I'll listen is real quick because
1:10:11
Speaker 1: you know you call yourself an openly queer woman. When
1:10:13
Speaker 1: did the word queer change from a slur to a
1:10:16
Speaker 1: term of endearment? Yeah? I think for me, the reason
1:10:19
Speaker 1: why I use the word queer is because even though yes,
1:10:21
Speaker 1: there's lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, intersex, asexual, non binary, there's
1:10:26
Speaker 1: a lot of you know, categories within our group. And
1:10:29
Speaker 1: the reason why I like to say queer is because
1:10:31
Speaker 1: I don't want to separate myself from any of those
1:10:33
Speaker 1: other people. To me, like my fight, I'll fight next
1:10:36
Speaker 1: to a gay man, I'll fight next to a bisexual person.
1:10:38
Speaker 1: I'll fight next to a trans person. I'll fight next
1:10:40
Speaker 1: to someone who's non binary. I like to say we're
1:10:42
Speaker 1: all one big family, and so that's why I'm not
1:10:45
Speaker 1: I try not to say lesbian because then I'm sort
1:10:47
Speaker 1: of like, I feel like ostracizing the lesbian group within
1:10:50
Speaker 1: a group of that's already a minority. So for me,
1:10:53
Speaker 1: when I say queer, it's really my way of just
1:10:55
Speaker 1: sort of being all inclusive. So that way, I'm not
1:10:57
Speaker 1: separating myself from any other group. It's me saying like
1:11:00
Speaker 1: we're all one big group. We're all we all have
1:11:03
Speaker 1: something about us that's sort of different, and we all
1:11:05
Speaker 1: have to come out in some sort of way. So
1:11:07
Speaker 1: I just kind of feel like we're all one big family.
1:11:15
Speaker 1: Season two yet not yet, but I feel confident and
1:11:19
Speaker 1: I'm grateful to all these people that really showed up,
1:11:23
Speaker 1: you know, I mean so many people, so many of
1:11:25
Speaker 1: our people, some people that don't even look like us,
1:11:27
Speaker 1: were like, you know, instagramming and posting and tweeting, and
1:11:31
Speaker 1: it was another It was it feels similar to Thanksgiving,
1:11:33
Speaker 1: you know, because the thing about Netflix is like we
1:11:35
Speaker 1: don't know how people feel about it. It feels like,
1:11:37
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, exactly, we don't have ratings or whatever,
1:11:41
Speaker 1: but I think for the shine, you know, and we
1:11:43
Speaker 1: were lucky because Showtime was gracious enough to release the
1:11:45
Speaker 1: first episode early, so we were getting tweets and emails
1:11:49
Speaker 1: and comment it was getting text and he was screen
1:11:51
Speaker 1: grabbing a send them to me. People were saying, again,
1:11:53
Speaker 1: thank you for showing us as we are, and um,
1:11:57
Speaker 1: and that's really my mission as a writer. I really
1:11:59
Speaker 1: want to continue to gain the audience's trust and I
1:12:03
Speaker 1: want to continue to be a person that can really,
1:12:05
Speaker 1: you know, wave a flag for our community. And you know,
1:12:09
Speaker 1: I think I think it's something I don't take lightly,
1:12:11
Speaker 1: and even like with win in the Emmy, I'm really
1:12:13
Speaker 1: grateful and I didn't expect for that to happen so
1:12:15
Speaker 1: early in my career. So I think for me, I
1:12:16
Speaker 1: feel like I'm always trying to earn it, you know,
1:12:18
Speaker 1: I'm really trying to earn that moment and you know,
1:12:20
Speaker 1: hopeful hit a few more last question, how do you
1:12:23
Speaker 1: think the show will change the perception that Chicago ask
1:12:25
Speaker 1: you this last night, But I want our audience to hear.
1:12:27
Speaker 1: I hope it just sort of reminds them that black
1:12:29
Speaker 1: boys aren't born with the gun in their right hand
1:12:32
Speaker 1: and Apolo drugs and they're left. You know, they're born
1:12:34
Speaker 1: with the same amount of hope, enjoy and potential as
1:12:39
Speaker 1: every other little kid. And that, you know, we are
1:12:42
Speaker 1: we're human and I think that's the thing that people
1:12:45
Speaker 1: often forget. We are human beings and uh. And we're
1:12:48
Speaker 1: just a group of working class folks that are trying
1:12:49
Speaker 1: to go to work every day, raise our kids, and
1:12:51
Speaker 1: get the church when we can. And uh and also too,
1:12:54
Speaker 1: you know, I know people are said they feel really
1:12:56
Speaker 1: connected to the characters, and they feel like they're really
1:12:58
Speaker 1: rooting for them and care about them. And even though
1:13:00
Speaker 1: they may be fictitious, My hope is that if you
1:13:02
Speaker 1: care about Coogee, if you care about Brandon, if you
1:13:05
Speaker 1: care about Emmett, if you care about Kevin, Um, that
1:13:08
Speaker 1: maybe when you hear a story on the news about
1:13:10
Speaker 1: some young black boy being shot and killing the street,
1:13:13
Speaker 1: it will no longer just be background noise. But you'll
1:13:15
Speaker 1: wonder what his nickname was, You'll wonder what he had
1:13:17
Speaker 1: for breakfast that morning, Um, You'll wonder what his dreams were.
1:13:21
Speaker 1: And I think that's the mission, is to get people
1:13:22
Speaker 1: to care about our lives. We appreciate you for joining us.
1:13:25

1:13:28
Speaker 1: be in a Steven Spielberg movie. So you know what
1:13:30
Speaker 1: that means. Whenever Steven Spielberg puts a black woman in
1:13:33

1:13:37
Speaker 1: Lena's about to go. Look and I'm gonna keep coming back. Man,
1:13:40
Speaker 1: whenever you'll hit me, whenever you'll hit me, I'm gonna
1:13:42
Speaker 1: come back. Please do it. Well, we appreciate you for
1:13:44
Speaker 1: joining us. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club.
1:13:50
Speaker 1: Anybody is DJ Energy angela ye, Charlomine the guy. We
1:13:54
Speaker 1: are the Breakfast Club. Now let's get to the rumors.
1:13:57
Speaker 1: So there's a Donald Trump up thing. It's about Angel
1:14:08
Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. Well, there was reports that Donald Trump
1:14:15
Speaker 1: US talked about DACA and he called certain nations ish
1:14:19
Speaker 1: whole countries, including certain nations in Africa as well as Haiti.
1:14:23
Speaker 1: He did not want to accept people from there, and
1:14:25
Speaker 1: El Salvador and El Salvador. Now he is backtracking. What
1:14:29
Speaker 1: he tweeted out is the so called bipartisan DOCCA deal
1:14:33
Speaker 1: presented yesterday to myself and a group of Republican Senators
1:14:36
Speaker 1: and congressmen was a big step backwards. Wall was not
1:14:39
Speaker 1: properly funded, Chain and lottery were made worse, and USA
1:14:42
Speaker 1: would be forced to take large numbers of people from
1:14:44
Speaker 1: high crime countries which are doing badly. I want a
1:14:47
Speaker 1: merit based system of immigration and people who help take
1:14:49
Speaker 1: our help take our country to the next level. I
1:14:52
Speaker 1: want safety and security for our people. I want to
1:14:54
Speaker 1: stop the massive inflow of drugs. I want to fund
1:14:56
Speaker 1: our military, not do a dam defund. Because of the
1:14:59
Speaker 1: Democrats not being interested in life and safety, DOCTA has
1:15:02
Speaker 1: now taken a big step backwards. The Dems will threatened
1:15:04
Speaker 1: shut down, but what they are really doing is shutting
1:15:07
Speaker 1: down our military at a time we need it most.
1:15:09
Speaker 1: Get smart, make America great again. So that is Donald
1:15:13
Speaker 1: Trump's explanation. And he said he didn't call it an
1:15:16
Speaker 1: s whole. He said, he said he used very strong language,
1:15:19
Speaker 1: but he said he did not use the word ishhole.
1:15:21
Speaker 1: Don't try to backtrack now, buddy, he was in the
1:15:23
Speaker 1: Oval office, attended by several members of Congress, stopping. He
1:15:27
Speaker 1: must already be feeling lightheaded, so he trying to backtrack.
1:15:29
Speaker 1: Before that, Haitian Wammy hits fully okay, not to mention.
1:15:32
Speaker 1: Today is the Hia anniversary of the earthquake that devastated Haiti.
1:15:35
Speaker 1: So those Haitian assets, those Haitian spirits are working over time.
1:15:41
Speaker 1: I'm telling you don't worry him old matting him straw
1:15:44
Speaker 1: hats and the fishing that shirts. Boy, you think it's
1:15:47
Speaker 1: the Lebron James pregame powder ritual. But no, it happens quickly.
1:15:52
Speaker 1: Oh he feeling lightheaded right now. I'm telling you he ain't.
1:15:56
Speaker 1: Somebody tweeted that for him. He ain't get up yet. Now,
1:15:58
Speaker 1: Swiss bet to win on Instagram to tell everybody to
1:16:01
Speaker 1: go and get your colin oscopy. He was getting his,
1:16:03
Speaker 1: and that is because of a promise that he made
1:16:05
Speaker 1: to Jay ice Pick Jackson after ice Pick passed away
1:16:09
Speaker 1: after about with cancer. Now he had promised him that
1:16:12
Speaker 1: he would go and make sure he got checked out
1:16:14
Speaker 1: and take care of his health. His health. Now, Swiss
1:16:17
Speaker 1: said on Instagram, your health is your wealth. I wanted
1:16:19
Speaker 1: to start off twenty eighteen by keeping the promise I
1:16:21
Speaker 1: made to my brother, the late Great Jay ice Pick
1:16:23
Speaker 1: Jackson before he passed. He urged that we all spread
1:16:26
Speaker 1: the word about how important our health is. As men,
1:16:28
Speaker 1: we always think we're invincible. If that was the case,
1:16:30
Speaker 1: a great man and many other great men would still
1:16:32
Speaker 1: be on this earth today. I did a colonoscopy, which
1:16:34
Speaker 1: many men refused to do until it's too late. It
1:16:36
Speaker 1: only took two days for the entire process, and thank god,
1:16:39
Speaker 1: I'm okay, that's real. I'm confused about when to go
1:16:41
Speaker 1: get one o because they say they go get one
1:16:42
Speaker 1: at fifty, but then somebody else told me to go
1:16:44
Speaker 1: get one much earlier. So when do you go get it?
1:16:46
Speaker 1: My doctor said fifty, but he did say there are
1:16:50
Speaker 1: certain checks that you can you can test to make
1:16:52
Speaker 1: sure how old it was, like thirty nine, forty. It's
1:16:54
Speaker 1: just probably like all right, well he went and got him.
1:16:58
Speaker 1: So what he's trying to say is he wants to
1:17:00
Speaker 1: prevent other people from going through what ice Pick went through.
1:17:04
Speaker 1: Absolutely many men aren't doing these until it's too late.
1:17:07
Speaker 1: So why not. You have history, If you have history,
1:17:09
Speaker 1: if your family has history of if you feel anything
1:17:12
Speaker 1: that feels a little off too, just make sure you
1:17:14
Speaker 1: check it out. Sometimes people will be like, oh, I'll
1:17:16
Speaker 1: just have this pain here, I'll just deal with it. Yeah.
1:17:18
Speaker 1: Rest in peace to my guy. Combat jacket. And you know,
1:17:20
Speaker 1: guys sound so stupid po an ice pick two guys
1:17:23
Speaker 1: sounds so stupid when they're like, oh no, I ain't
1:17:25
Speaker 1: going to get a new prosted example, I ain't letting
1:17:27
Speaker 1: no doctors to get fingering out. But whatever you said,
1:17:29
Speaker 1: you rather die, all right? And I just want to
1:17:32
Speaker 1: give a shout out to that period you rather die
1:17:35
Speaker 1: and get a finger in you. And I want to
1:17:37
Speaker 1: give a shout out to Dapper Dan. They're going to
1:17:38
Speaker 1: be opening a Gucci store up in Harlem now. He
1:17:41
Speaker 1: posted a sign of the times. For the first time
