  Speaker 12: Get it off your Chest eight hundred and five eighty
• 5:19
  Speaker 12: five one five one. It's the Breakfast Club in the morning,
• 5:22
  Speaker 12: wake up, wake up wall ask.
• 5:25
  Speaker 5: Your time to get it off your chest?
• 5:28
  Speaker 12: Really your man or blessed, we want to hear from
• 5:30
  Speaker 12: you on the breakfast gloves. Hello, who is hello?
• 5:36
  Speaker 16: Hey?
• 5:36
  Speaker 12: What's your name?
• 5:37
  Speaker 17: Bright?
• 5:38
  Speaker 12: We'll fall the jersey will jersey.
• 5:41
  Speaker 18: Briefly, I just want to highlight the fact that it's
• 5:44
  Speaker 18: like what's going through now. And I don't know if
• 5:46
  Speaker 18: you guys or know what a rush act is is
• 5:48
  Speaker 18: when you know, the doctor shoes you a picture or
• 5:50
  Speaker 18: something and you give your interpretation of it and then
• 5:54
  Speaker 18: it is what you see. But now in real life,
• 5:57
  Speaker 18: it's like certain things that used to be cutting dry.
• 6:00
  Speaker 18: You see a square, it's a square. See a circle.
• 6:02
  Speaker 18: It's a certacause there's no argument about that. But we're
• 6:05
  Speaker 18: in the player at the country now that we can
• 6:07
  Speaker 18: look at the same exact thing and something is cut
• 6:10
  Speaker 18: and dry as murder and justify it or look at
• 6:13
  Speaker 18: it totally different. You have people that can look at
• 6:16
  Speaker 18: what happened in Minnesota to most people who're like, Okay.
• 6:19
  Speaker 19: That was wrong.
• 6:20
  Speaker 18: But then there's other people that go look at the
• 6:21
  Speaker 18: same exact situation and justify it. And then some of
• 6:25
  Speaker 18: those same people will look at what happened on January sixth,
• 6:29
  Speaker 18: where most people will look at it like Nope, that
• 6:31
  Speaker 18: was wrong what those people did, and there's those people
• 6:33
  Speaker 18: that would justify it. And So if we're at a
• 6:36
  Speaker 18: point in this country where we can't look at things
• 6:39
  Speaker 18: that are basically absolute and not have the same opinion
• 6:44
  Speaker 18: on this is right and this is wrong, but we
• 6:46
  Speaker 18: all see that with the same vision, we're in trouble.
• 6:50
  Speaker 18: If we can't start at a faiseline of what decency
• 6:54
  Speaker 18: is and what right is right and wrong is, then
• 6:56
  Speaker 18: everything else is totally off the table.
• 6:58
  Speaker 6: You're right, they treat and murdered away, n treat getting
• 7:00
  Speaker 6: caught cheating. You know what I'm saying, but.
• 7:03
  Speaker 18: You should be able to the things that you could
• 7:06
  Speaker 18: justify your opinion.
• 7:08
  Speaker 11: What a fact that?
• 7:09
  Speaker 18: Like, you know Eddie Murphy had that joke. You wanna
• 7:12
  Speaker 18: believe me or your lion I but she knows to
• 7:15
  Speaker 18: say whatever she wants to say. We know what we.
• 7:18
  Speaker 7: Saw and that's what it should be about. That.
• 7:20
  Speaker 5: Man, you are so accurate. That's exactly what it should
• 7:22
  Speaker 5: be about.
• 7:23
  Speaker 12: Right.
• 7:23
  Speaker 5: Right is right and wrong is wrong. You know what
• 7:25
  Speaker 5: I mean?
• 7:25
  Speaker 6: Like if we're saying, you got these people out here
• 7:27
  Speaker 6: that got a job to do with your the ice agents, Okay,
• 7:30
  Speaker 6: do their job.
• 7:30
  Speaker 7: Do I want people impeding them doing their job? No?
• 7:33
  Speaker 7: But I don't don't want them killing folks either.
• 7:36

  Speaker 17: These days now, being in a relationship, when you with

• 12:46
  Speaker 17: to go on lunch state and you know that's that's
• 12:49
  Speaker 17: gonna happen. And I think, you know you just gotta
• 12:53
  Speaker 17: either accept it or leave it, because really.
• 12:55
  Speaker 11: That's what goes on.
• 12:56
  Speaker 12: Do you have a work white bro?

• 13:31
  Speaker 7: Thank you, Thank you. We appreciate you, man, Thank you.
• 13:34
  Speaker 14: Another thing, I think the girl was insane for telling
• 13:37
  Speaker 14: her girlfriend she got a work wife. I think that
• 13:41
  Speaker 14: you gotta keep that to yourself. I've had plenty of
• 13:43
  Speaker 14: work wives that didn't lead to nothing at all. But
• 13:46
  Speaker 14: I ain't, like I told my girldad like, I just
• 13:48
  Speaker 14: kept it to me. Were just getting coffee and and
• 13:51
  Speaker 14: doing stuff like that. We ain't doing nothing crazy.
• 13:53
  Speaker 10: Now, that's the thing that the reason why I thought
• 13:55
  Speaker 10: it was it wasn't crazy that she told her girlfriend
• 13:57
  Speaker 10: that she had a work wife. What made it crazy
• 13:59
  Speaker 10: is that you really with your work wife, like y'all
• 14:01
  Speaker 10: getting intimate, y'all, y'all flirting and dealing with each other.
• 14:04
  Speaker 10: She went in the phone, saw messages, and she cheats.
• 14:06
  Speaker 10: She was cheating on her girlfriend with her work wife.
• 14:08
  Speaker 10: That's where it went wrong.
• 14:09
  Speaker 15: You got crazy.
• 14:10
  Speaker 14: That's a whole nother conversation. Specifically, Hey, you came to yourself.
• 14:17
  Speaker 14: You always home for that?
• 14:18
  Speaker 12: I can't now, dion answer answer answer the railway right.
• 14:23
  Speaker 5: Have you ever flirted with your work wife?
• 14:26
  Speaker 14: Of course that's my work wife.
• 14:27
  Speaker 16: But happen.
• 14:29
  Speaker 7: No, But see, you shouldn't be flirting. You know your
• 14:32
  Speaker 7: wife would not allow you to be flirting.
• 14:33
  Speaker 6: Would you tell your wife you was flirting with your
• 14:35
  Speaker 6: work wife? That you don't listen, My my rule is
• 14:43
  Speaker 6: you don't do nothing. You can't tell your wife.
• 14:45
  Speaker 15: That's right.
• 14:45
  Speaker 7: You can't tell your wife about it. You know you
• 14:47
  Speaker 7: ain't got no.
• 14:47
  Speaker 12: Business doing it now if you're just joining us. This
• 14:50
  Speaker 12: conversation actually came from a woman who called yesterday during

  Speaker 2: there's a lot of trauma, so I've you know, buried
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: some of those memories, but I don't remember being this cold.
• 22:45
  Speaker 12: Well, let's start off with saying congratulations. You're about to
• 22:48
  Speaker 12: celebrate the twenty fifth anniversary of the Shine album, and
• 22:52
  Speaker 12: you also have the twenty fifth anniversary world tour, with
• 22:56
  Speaker 12: New York being the first stop.
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: That's right, that's right. The Shine came out September twenty six,
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: two thousand, so we're in the year of the celebration.
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: It was this September twenty sixth that passed, right. But
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: I was working out my work status here because the
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: last time I was here, I was here as the
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: leader of the opposition if I recalled. So I was
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: here as a diplomat but then I had to transition,
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: you know, as a worker, so I wasn't able to
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: come earlier to start the tour. But you know, we
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: started all of that out and yeah, so now we're
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: gonna perform and celebrate the album, you know, which was
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: a very special album to me, very special album to
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: a lot of people throughout the United States and throughout
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: the world. You know. I was at the the Africa
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: Awards in Los Angeles over the weekend, so African American
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: Film Critics Award, and so Ryan Kugler, who obviously everybody
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: knows who that is, broke the records for most Oscar
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: nominations for sinners, so he was getting a bunch of awards,
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: and so when I saw him, he was like, yo,
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: you know, we grew up to your music and he's
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: from Oakland. But that just shows you the impact that
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: the Shine album had. And I never got a chance
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: to really, you know, even appreciate my career because that
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: album came out September twenty six, two thousand and by
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: March I was in Captivity, so like five months.
• 24:38
  Speaker 12: You know, that's I would love you to discuss, right, So, yeah,
• 24:41
  Speaker 12: of course that album came out and it was a
• 24:43
  Speaker 12: huge album.
• 24:44
  Speaker 8: Right.
• 24:44
  Speaker 12: You had Bad Boys, This Gangster Body and Shine. Those
• 24:47
  Speaker 12: are the singles off that Yeah album.
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: Then you had songs like the Commission. You had songs
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: like N Word going. I would kind of change that chorus,
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: but like Pharrell made that record, that's like one of
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: my favorite record because when you hear me perform that
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: at Kingstadar on May second, it's gonna be a movie.
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: But records on the album.
• 25:07
  Speaker 12: My question is you you were huge back then, right,
• 25:11
  Speaker 12: and and you got it locked up. You talked about
• 25:13
  Speaker 12: it last time. You had the amount of time you
• 25:15
  Speaker 12: spent and when you came out, you changed a lot, right.
• 25:18
  Speaker 12: You talked about your change, and you know, you go
• 25:20
  Speaker 12: to Jerusalem and you're reading the Taurrah and then you're
• 25:23
  Speaker 12: getting into politics, right, and then you became the total
• 25:27
  Speaker 12: opposite in my opinion of who you were as a
• 25:29
  Speaker 12: young man.
• 25:30
  Speaker 7: Right.
• 25:30
  Speaker 12: At one time you were talking gangster ish and shooting
• 25:33
  Speaker 12: and blowing people's heads off. And you talk about stories
• 25:35
  Speaker 12: of you carrying guns, and I've heard stories about you
• 25:37
  Speaker 12: and the Bad Boys office carrying guns and pulling out
• 25:40
  Speaker 12: all types of nines and blocks and all types of stuff. Right,
• 25:43
  Speaker 12: And you can't you changed, totally change. You became a
• 25:47
  Speaker 12: gentleman that was speaking positivity, uh trying to instead of
• 25:52
  Speaker 12: uh promote crime, you were against it. You would you
• 25:56
  Speaker 12: were talking community, trying to get.
• 25:58
  Speaker 5: Kids off the streets.
• 25:59
  Speaker 12: But the lyrics back then twenty five years ago was
• 26:02
  Speaker 12: still the lyrics twenty five years ago. So as Shine
• 26:05
  Speaker 12: to change, gentlemen, how do you perform those records?
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: I think you got to listen to those lyrics. If
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: you listen to the America, I'm only what you made me, young,
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: black crazy, Please save me. I'm dying inside in case
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: you see it in my eyes. Maybe if you would
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: teach me how to do a craft or trade. I
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: come off the corner, stop serving at yay, build schools
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: instead of prison. I stop living the way that I'm living.
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: That's poetry. That's me crying out for help. That applies
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: today to the NBA Young Boys, the same way it
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: applied to Shine back then. If you listen to you
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: know what you're gonna do when it hit the fan.
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: That's integrity. That's character. That's me talking about. You know,
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: I'm telling my life story and saying that I abide
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: by certain codes and I get my friends in trouble
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: and you know, being honest to who I am and
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: trying to survive these streets. I don't think my album
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: or my raps I would say. I know, we're never
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: Quentin Tarantino or you know, violent rap. I was talking
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: about my life. I was giving you a dissertation as
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: to what I was going through. And if you listen
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: carefully enough, I was always saying, this is not what
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: I want to do. I would like to escape this.
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: But when you talk about the performance, people like Ryan
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: Coogler and other people, regular people grew up to my music,
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: and so it's a celebration of that. You know, maybe
• 27:50
  Speaker 2: when I'm performing there might be a few words that
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: you know, I let the audience say and I wouldn't say.
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: But it's a celebration of the music of the evil
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: and art is not to be condemned, right, But it's
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: it's definitely not as much as what you're saying. If
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: you listen to those those lyrics, it's really telling the
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: story of uh, you know, eighteen year old, nineteen year
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: old that's trying to navigate the muddy waters of you know,
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: what the system created. That's how I remember And if
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: you go lyrics for lyrics, you'll find a lot of
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: you know, please help me. This is not what I
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: really want to do, but this is what I'm doing.
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: I gotta defend myself, you know, I gotta protect myself.
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: That that was the energy that I was given.
• 28:35
  Speaker 12: And I'm not I'm not judging. Don't think I'm judging
• 28:38
  Speaker 12: because I grew up to this music. I play his music,
• 28:40
  Speaker 12: I DJ his music. But it's always interesting when when
• 28:43
  Speaker 12: I have somebody like yourself or even you know, Mace,
• 28:46
  Speaker 12: because Mace was probably one of the first one that
• 28:48
  Speaker 12: we seen do it. Where Mace is you know, talking,
• 28:50
  Speaker 12: you know, bullets hit off the car bling bling ding
• 28:53
  Speaker 12: ding whatever, and then when he comes out as a
• 28:55
  Speaker 12: pastor and then he comes back as a rap, it's like, well,
• 28:57
  Speaker 12: can he do those lyrics?
• 28:59
  Speaker 13: Right?
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 28:59
  Speaker 5: And it's not a judge.
• 29:00
  Speaker 12: It's that when people see people change, they're for it.
• 29:05
  Speaker 12: They agree with it, all right. I agree with the
• 29:06
  Speaker 12: change because some people don't have the balls to do it.
• 29:08
  Speaker 12: Some people don't have the haven't evolved to do it.
• 29:12
  Speaker 12: But then when they do it, it's like, that's a
• 29:14
  Speaker 12: good thing. I understand why he did it. Where he's
• 29:16
  Speaker 12: going with it. But then when it goes back to
• 29:18
  Speaker 12: the rap and it's like, well, how do you go
• 29:20
  Speaker 12: back and forth? And I'm like, when I hear rapers
• 29:22
  Speaker 12: like you know, uh yeah, hope you die slow death.
• 29:27
  Speaker 12: As I coke test see the Lord's protests. Can't put
• 29:29
  Speaker 12: your weak rap is with your gay ass raps running
• 29:32
  Speaker 12: around talking this and that. I'm like, how does shine
• 29:35
  Speaker 12: do that? You know what I mean. But then on
• 29:36
  Speaker 12: the other side, like please to my friends and believes.
• 29:39
  Speaker 12: You know, I'm trying to get the kids like I
• 29:40
  Speaker 12: just and I'm not judging.
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: I'm just as but I think I think creativity. We
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: were talking about that in the green room. Creativity is
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: not as simple as you know. You just read it.
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: That's a that's a poem. That's a work of art
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: that people love, and this is a celebration of that.
• 30:03
  Speaker 2: And even in my evolved state, I still help artists
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: and belieze and I still support artists, you know, whether
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: it's offset Qwavo or a Pusher Ta or all these
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: young kids that I see and I run into them
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: and we talk and I inspire them. I'm not here
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: to tell them, you know, well you shouldn't rap like
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: this or you should rap like that. So, you know,
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: my creative expressions should be studied in Harvard, should be
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: in the museum they're trying in history. So it's not
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: something that I'm ashamed of. That was a young shine,
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: That's how he felt, that's what he was going through,
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: and he expressed himself. And so celebrating that expression. This
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: is not for you know, a twelve year old kid
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: or thirteen year old kid to come to my concert.
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: You know, these are adults that are going to be
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: in the room celebrating that body of work. Now, if
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: you're asking me about my new album, that's not what
• 30:57
  Speaker 2: I'm going to be saying.
• 30:58
  Speaker 12: And I would hope not you're not, but but but.
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: I think I think I think it would be it
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: would be very unfair to deprive uh, you know, people
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: that love that body of work correct from that celebration.
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: And as I said, there's a way for me to
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: do it, right, don't. I don't. I don't necessarily need to.
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: You know, there's there's crowd participation, right, so I could
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: you know who want to.
• 31:26
  Speaker 12: You know what I mean, what type of what type
• 31:30
  Speaker 12: of brothers?
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: Thank you?
• 31:37
  Speaker 7: Thank you?
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: Laurden.
• 31:40
  Speaker 20: I mean, envy has a point though, I mean, but
• 31:43
  Speaker 20: I think you probably got a lot of this even
• 31:45
  Speaker 20: before this tour when you I mean just as a
• 31:47
  Speaker 20: politician now.
• 31:48
  Speaker 12: But people performed since we've seen them, right, I think,
• 31:51
  Speaker 12: So the great thing.
• 31:52
  Speaker 2: Is to wait and see what is Sean gonna do?
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: Is he gonna say the album in a.
• 32:04
  Speaker 12: Can't can? I?
• 32:07
  Speaker 5: Hold on?
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: Hold on, hold on, my good hold on?
• 32:11
  Speaker 5: Who did it?
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: Who was the first one to do it? With the fitted,
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: fitted low going in the court with the Gucci suit,
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: with the time come on, come on, Hevy, come on
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: heavy right?
• 32:22
  Speaker 12: What changed your mind? I think last time you were
• 32:24
  Speaker 12: up here, you were like you weren't thinking about performing,
• 32:27
  Speaker 12: and you said the only time that you think you
• 32:28
  Speaker 12: would perform is if it was like a Grammys or
• 32:31
  Speaker 12: a BT and they were showing you love, and that
• 32:34
  Speaker 12: you weren't interested in performing. What changed your mind?
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: I mean, twenty five years is that's a milestone. People
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: don't really get to celebrate a twenty fifth anniversary and
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: still be relevant twenty five years later. And also I'm
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: no longer in the House of Representatives, so my focus
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: shifted somewhat. I'm still focused on becoming the next Prime
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: Minister of Belize. At some point I had a twenty
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: thirty agenda and some way ahead a schedule on that.
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: I still focus on helping the people in Mesopotamia, which
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: is a constituency I used to represent. But when I
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: lost my seat, you know, I had a few things
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: that I've been delaying due to being in the legislator.
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: So now I'm involved in real estate development for tourism
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: and Belieze, I get to finish my memoir, God bless you.
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: I have film projects to do, Like I have a
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: lot to do that I couldn't do because I was
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: in the legislator, and I'm one of those people that's
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: singular obsessed with whatever it is I am doing, and
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: I just didn't feel comfortable focusing much on the creative
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: as I did when I was in the legislator. Now
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: I'm not, so I have a couple of years before
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: the next election to do this. And this is not random.
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: It's my twenty fifth anniversary. I'm not gonna be able
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: to celebrate my twenty fifth anniversary ever again. So it's
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: a great way to celebrate twenty five years of Shine,
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: the first album, and to create new music.
• 34:12
  Speaker 12: And I think it's dope because I mean, I'm from
• 34:14
  Speaker 12: New York, so I remember the impact that record had
• 34:16
  Speaker 12: on New York. But I also feel a little bad
• 34:20
  Speaker 12: for you as well, right, And the reason I say
• 34:21
  Speaker 12: that is when that album came out, I don't think
• 34:24
  Speaker 12: you ever got a chance to enjoy it because at
• 34:28
  Speaker 12: that same time, you were on court and you never
• 34:30
  Speaker 12: got a chance to go to talk because you went
• 34:32
  Speaker 12: you got locked up, So you never got a chance
• 34:34
  Speaker 12: to enjoy the fruits of your labor during that time.
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: October November, December, pick jewelry, January, ready for trial February, convicted,
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: March sixteenth. So I think not just me, but the
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: people that love the music never got the chance to
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: celebrate it. So this is really a celebration, you know.
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: And we're going to bring some special guests to help
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: me celebrate. From the hip hop world, from the danceholl world.
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: It's gonna be incredible.
• 35:07
  Speaker 12: So what do you say people just want the last
• 35:09
  Speaker 12: question on it? What do you say to people that say, Sean,
• 35:12
  Speaker 12: is this about the money?
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: Money?
• 35:17
  Speaker 8: Nah?
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: That that's that's irrelevant. That's not a you don't you
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: don't take these steps in life just uh to get
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: a check. I've been good. I spent millions of dollars
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: in believe in politics, and that's how I became the
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: leader of the opposition. Inconsequential, you know, you just got
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: to do things, which is in line with what I
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: had said to you. It would have to be something special,
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: and so this is specially twenty fifth anniversary is special.
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: The albums that I'm going to come out with are attached.
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: I think if you go back to that interview, I
• 35:55
  Speaker 2: mentioned it that I would do albums that were attached
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: to the film projects. So I never put out the
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: album for the Honorable Shine documentary, So that's going to
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: be especially curated album. Then I have the TV series,
• 36:15
  Speaker 2: the Bio TV series about my life that's another album.
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: Then we have the motion picture that's the final album.
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: And then I would by that time be ready for
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: the elections. So you know, what should I do? Should
• 36:28
  Speaker 2: I just sit around for three years and not do
• 36:32
  Speaker 2: anything like what you mentioned? Is the furthest thing from
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: my mind is just how do I spend my time?
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: And what have I been neglecting? What have I not
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: been doing that I could do? You know, when you
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: think about all that I've been through politically, been through
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: a lot I'm writing a book on that. You know,
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: there was a coup in my party. You know, they
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: try to overthrow throw me. They broke all types of laws.
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: I had to take them to court. It was that
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: was a movie within itself. And so I lost my
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: seat because I took all that I had and gave
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: it to my colleagues. Because I was a leader, so
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: I took and I took what I thought was enough
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: for myself. But I made sure because in Belize parliamentary
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: system of governance, you can't become prime minister unless you
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: have a majority of the seats in the House of Representatives,
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: and as the leader, you're responsible for getting everyone to sixteen.
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: So we need sixteen seats. So I made a promise.
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: I'm their leader. We're in the battlefield. It's bad, we're
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: all about to go down, but I'm not gonna, you know,
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: turn around and be like, all right, well, let's get
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: in the tank, and you know they gonna figure it out.
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: I made sure everybody had tanks, and I made sure
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: everyone was good. So that was a lot. So now
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: as I catch my breath and I think about, you know,
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: what to do next, I'm grateful for my own sanity
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: and for my you know, my my emotional stability, spirituality,
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: that I have something to do, which is incredible. To
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: be able to celebrate my twenty fifth anniversary, to make
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: new projects, to being you know, to be able to
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: go to California and go to doctor Dre's house and
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: and you know, to go in the studio and for
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: him to play beats for me. That's that's a blessing.
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: That's a miracle. Like a lot of people can't go
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: to California and get in front of Dred.
• 38:38
  Speaker 5: So yeah.
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: So so like that's where I'm at with with with
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: my art and what I'm doing now in life. And
• 38:43
  Speaker 2: as I said, the projects to the real estate projects,
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: you know, being able to work with somebody like Don Pooh,
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: you know, Robert Cummins, you know Brooklyn Chophouse, to open
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: a Brooklyn chop house and believe with a resort. Uh
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: you know, like so so so I have a lot
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: of blessings, very fortunate, and I never shied away from
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: who I was as an entertainer. I reject the idea that,
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: oh well, if you're an entertainer, just be an entertainer,
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: Just be be an athlete. You know, you shouldn't be
• 39:17
  Speaker 2: involved in politics. I'm not gonna get involved in American politics.
• 39:21
  Speaker 15: That's y'all.
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: That's y'all's problem or or or whatever it is. But
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: I just believe that hip hop is so diverse and
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: we could do anything. You know, we were or are we?
• 39:36
  Speaker 2: Fashion designers, you know, movie producers, restaurants, hoteliers, like that's
• 39:43
  Speaker 2: just that's always.
• 39:43
  Speaker 9: Been a hip hop speaking of our problem? Or do
• 39:48
  Speaker 9: you ask citizenship in the US? Or is that you
• 39:50
  Speaker 9: ain't even right about it?
• 39:51
  Speaker 5: No more?
• 39:51
  Speaker 2: I'm I'm oh one worker, so exhordinary ability worker. So
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: I have a visa as an old one extraordinary ability
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: working so I could live and work in the United States.
• 40:06
  Speaker 20: What would you say to people and I've seen you
• 40:08
  Speaker 20: talk about, you know, your relationship lack they're of a Diddy,
• 40:12
  Speaker 20: But what would you say to people who feel like
• 40:14
  Speaker 20: you're finally getting kind of like, I mean, the support
• 40:18
  Speaker 20: that a lot of people didn't give you back when
• 40:20
  Speaker 20: the child was happening because Diddy was like the mega superstar.
• 40:23
  Speaker 20: But now people see him in a different light, so
• 40:25
  Speaker 20: people are more kind of open to hearing anything that
• 40:28
  Speaker 20: doesn't make him like this big, mega perfect person.
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: Well, did He's not really interrelated with anything that I'm
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: doing right now. I think that I've been able to
• 40:44
  Speaker 2: build my legacy, and I've always had the support of
• 40:51
  Speaker 2: the hip hop community. There was a point where, like
• 40:52
  Speaker 2: the hip hop community, you remember, it kind of hated
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: Diddy when I went away, and they didn't want anything
• 40:59
  Speaker 2: to do with him. But you know, being the Charlottean,
• 41:03
  Speaker 2: the very convincing person that he is, he knows how
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: to get everybody, you know, back in line. But I've
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: always had support, you know, throughout my incarceration. You know,
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: jay Z was coming to Rikers Island on the Mayback.
• 41:19
  Speaker 2: You know when God he God blessed his soul, was
• 41:23
  Speaker 2: at the height of his power and murdered Ink. They
• 41:28
  Speaker 2: all came up there to try to sign me nods.
• 41:30
  Speaker 2: Uh you know Doctor Dre, I was just talking, uh
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: to my guy Monie Helly, who was managing Keisha, Cole
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: Future and a bunch of you know superstars. But hey,
• 41:43
  Speaker 2: yeah money, he say yeah, man so he when he
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: first discovered Keisha, it was between him and Doctor Dre
• 41:53
  Speaker 2: because Doctor Dre had this new kid called the Game,
• 41:57
  Speaker 2: and they wanted a verse from Shine and Manny, who
• 42:01
  Speaker 2: I came up with Roll Flatbush and my guy. We
• 42:05
  Speaker 2: started in the cradle. He wanted the record for his artists,
• 42:09
  Speaker 2: but everybody wanted to Shine record, but it only could
• 42:13
  Speaker 2: be one, and I gave it to Manny because of
• 42:15
  Speaker 2: our brotherhood, So I wouldn't say that. You know, people
• 42:21
  Speaker 2: people always embrace Shined in When I came out, Remember
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: I did, I did. I did a deal while I
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: was away, went number one again despite remember and and
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: you know I did the I don't know if Double
• 42:33
  Speaker 2: XL people remember Double XL the death before the sign
• 42:37
  Speaker 2: of cover and the most hip hop most wanted cover.
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: And I was always telling people who did he was
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: the irony, I guess, is just that, well, now you
• 42:49
  Speaker 2: know every everything had everything, well everything has collapsed and
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: every and the curtain has been removed. And I was like,
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: it's you know, irrefutable for most peop people, everything that
• 43:02
  Speaker 2: I said back then, But then for me it's like
• 43:05
  Speaker 2: I'm gone. It's like, you know, for real, and the clips,
• 43:08
  Speaker 2: you know, respect to them on that great album where
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: you know that record where he says I'm so so
• 43:15
  Speaker 2: far gone, like I'm you know, as soon as they wanted.
• 43:18
  Speaker 2: I don't want to know more, I'm somewhere else, So
• 43:19
  Speaker 2: it's like for me, I'm not I'm not there.
• 43:22
  Speaker 12: That was rumored that they asked you to, uh be
• 43:25
  Speaker 12: part of the Diddy doc You know.
• 43:27
  Speaker 2: I saw I saw Alex that directed the film.
• 43:32
  Speaker 5: That's her name the record.
• 43:34
  Speaker 20: Yeah, yeah, I know it's Alex because I remember I
• 43:38
  Speaker 20: hit you and I'm like, hey, what happened?
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: And I told you I'm coming out with a new
• 43:42
  Speaker 2: album and you ain't saying that. Listen. She wants to
• 43:48
  Speaker 2: scoop right, So I'm like, listen, you know I'm coming
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: out with a new album, new to all that. I'm
• 43:53
  Speaker 2: thinking she gonna go back. Well listen, Sean said he
• 43:55
  Speaker 2: working on a new album, but he gonna, you know,
• 43:57
  Speaker 2: pop up on no. I wanted you to say that.
• 44:01
  Speaker 9: I didn't know.
• 44:02
  Speaker 20: I thought you were saying that like when the time
• 44:04
  Speaker 20: is right.
• 44:04
  Speaker 7: I didn't know you wanted me to.
• 44:06
  Speaker 2: I thought, you know, you gotta be specific with me.
• 44:09
  Speaker 12: You got so did they reach out?
• 44:11
  Speaker 2: But she said she did. But I tell you that,
• 44:14
  Speaker 2: I tell you honestly, I'm so focused on me and
• 44:18
  Speaker 2: Believe and all the great things that are before me. Uh.
• 44:24
  Speaker 2: I didn't see the documentary, but I heard I heard
• 44:29
  Speaker 2: that it's it's great as powerful as this award winning worthy.
• 44:33
  Speaker 2: I you know, they I heard I was in the
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: documentary even though I didn't speak, but obviously they told
• 44:40
  Speaker 2: the truth about what I've been saying. So nothing that
• 44:43
  Speaker 2: I'm saying is different than what I've said before. But
• 44:47
  Speaker 2: I didn't watch it because I I just that's my trauma.
• 44:53
  Speaker 2: So so without getting into what he did to Cassie
• 45:00
  Speaker 2: and what he did to all the other people that
• 45:02
  Speaker 2: have accused him, and I see that, like there's some
• 45:05
  Speaker 2: people that saying, oh, well, you know, well Cassie, Cassie
• 45:08
  Speaker 2: wanted it up. Well, yeah, that's what she signed up for.
• 45:13
  Speaker 2: You know, we all can't be wrong, right, So it's like,
• 45:18
  Speaker 2: I know what he did to me as far as
• 45:22
  Speaker 2: sending me to prison. He was one of the most
• 45:25
  Speaker 2: powerful people in the world, and he used his money
• 45:28
  Speaker 2: and his power to make sure that witnesses lied. People
• 45:32
  Speaker 2: went in there. Not to say, listen, Sean was defending
• 45:35
  Speaker 2: did he because we I owned up to having the weapon.
• 45:41
  Speaker 2: There was no dispute to that, but it was a
• 45:43
  Speaker 2: matter of self defense, and he had the power to
• 45:46
  Speaker 2: make sure that if people went in there, they told
• 45:49
  Speaker 2: the truth. And Sean was defending all of us. He
• 45:51
  Speaker 2: didn't do that. He said listen, somebody gotta go down.
• 45:55
  Speaker 2: And he wasn't a gentleman. He didn't say listen, listen,
• 46:00
  Speaker 2: just cop out or this is how we're gonna do it.
• 46:04
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna make sure family good for life, You good
• 46:06
  Speaker 2: for life, but we need you to take this hit. No,
• 46:10
  Speaker 2: it was like you're gonna take the hit because the
• 46:12
  Speaker 2: DA was offered me thirteen years, so I couldn't even
• 46:15
  Speaker 2: get a reasonable plea, and then I think the judge
• 46:18
  Speaker 2: offered me like seven years. But I say all that
• 46:23
  Speaker 2: to say, uh, what he did to me, I would
• 46:26
  Speaker 2: never do to another human being. Worst thing in the
• 46:28
  Speaker 2: world to send somebody to prison. So I could imagine
• 46:33
  Speaker 2: all these other things that people are saying. But his
• 46:36
  Speaker 2: celebrity is so loud, was so loud, and you can
• 46:40
  Speaker 2: still see it creeping in sometimes because you see people
• 46:43
  Speaker 2: come out and start attacking the victims. It was the
• 46:46
  Speaker 2: same thing that kind of happened to me, where after
• 46:49
  Speaker 2: a certain point people are like, shut up, we don't
• 46:51
  Speaker 2: want to hear about that. You know, let's party, let's
• 46:53
  Speaker 2: drink Sarah. So I don't want to. I don't want to.
• 46:57
  Speaker 2: I don't even want to talk about that. But I
• 47:00
  Speaker 2: respect my responsibility to you, to the audience, to you know,
• 47:05
  Speaker 2: when you text me, I told you want to come
• 47:07
  Speaker 2: up here, you can ask me.
• 47:08
  Speaker 20: That's why I didn't mention anything, because I felt like
• 47:10
  Speaker 20: it was unfair to bring you into that conversation because
• 47:13
  Speaker 20: we're reported on Dating is documentary and it's like, oh, well,
• 47:15
  Speaker 20: shine in new music. So when you said you were
• 47:17
  Speaker 20: willing to come and talk, I was like, all right,
• 47:19
  Speaker 20: I make sure it happened so that you can have
• 47:21
  Speaker 20: your own conversation about good You're.
• 47:22
  Speaker 2: Good, like like.
• 47:25
  Speaker 12: She was great, DM me talk about my content, damn it,
• 47:28
  Speaker 12: talk about my damn it.
• 47:30
  Speaker 2: We're talking about listen, not that not that you you
• 47:33
  Speaker 2: going back on tour for the money.
• 47:36
  Speaker 19: Right even really.
• 47:41
  Speaker 2: People think, so, you know, why would somebody think that.
• 47:43
  Speaker 2: It's not like I'm out here stunting. I'm like, listen,
• 47:47
  Speaker 2: I take the tray like I'm a regular guy. Like
• 47:49
  Speaker 2: it's not like I think if people, it's not like
• 47:52
  Speaker 2: I'm fronting, like I'm out here in front like I
• 47:54
  Speaker 2: got a hundred millions.
• 47:55
  Speaker 7: And you heard something.
• 47:56
  Speaker 12: The first thing that people say is, well, why did
• 47:58
  Speaker 12: they come back.
• 47:59
  Speaker 2: You know, especially I never got it said the last time.
• 48:01
  Speaker 12: I said, he was like, I don't want to because.
• 48:03
  Speaker 2: I was in the legislator. I was in the legislator.
• 48:08
  Speaker 2: No no, no no, But I'm still Obama who got
• 48:11
  Speaker 2: I got the I got the prolo crust on, but
• 48:13
  Speaker 2: I still.
• 48:13
  Speaker 7: Got you know what I mean?
• 48:16
  Speaker 12: Alright, shut up, it's the breakfast clu, good morning.
• 48:20
  Speaker 7: Trying to beat donkey today?
• 48:21
  Speaker 8: No more.
• 48:21
  Speaker 5: They should be embarrassed by what they already did.
• 48:23
  Speaker 7: I'm not making these people do these days.
• 48:25
  Speaker 9: Called donkey of the day, and it really caught me
• 48:28
  Speaker 9: off guard.
• 48:28
  Speaker 10: Damn Charlamagne, who got the donkey out of the day
• 48:31
  Speaker 10: to day?
• 48:33
  Speaker 6: Well, jess Hilarian's donkey today goes to a real estate
• 48:36
  Speaker 6: agent named Stephanie Lovins. And I'm gonna let you know
• 48:38
  Speaker 6: it right now. The mayonnaise is heavy on this story. Okay,
• 48:41
  Speaker 6: Stephanie used to work for Century twenty one. We all
• 48:44
  Speaker 6: know what Century twenty one is, correct, Yes, big real
• 48:46
  Speaker 6: estate company. Stephanie was a real estate agent there, but
• 48:48
  Speaker 6: she isn't anymore.
• 48:50
  Speaker 7: She got fired.
• 48:51
  Speaker 6: Okay, she got fired because Stephanie was dining at a
• 48:53
  Speaker 6: Mexican restaurant in Columbus, Ohio. Salute that everybody who listens
• 48:58
  Speaker 6: to us on one oh six point seven to beat
• 49:00
  Speaker 6: in Columbus, Ohio dropping the clues bombs for one of
• 49:02
  Speaker 6: sixty seven eight in Columbus, Ohio. Thank you for listening
• 49:05
  Speaker 6: to the world's most dangerous morning show. Now, before I
• 49:08
  Speaker 6: tell you about Stephanie, I just need to remind you
• 49:10
  Speaker 6: that since the start of President Trump's second term, thousands
• 49:14
  Speaker 6: of undocumented migrants have been getting arrested and deported.
• 49:18
  Speaker 5: We know this, Okay, Tom Holman.
• 49:20
  Speaker 6: And Ice Ice baby not playing and there are a
• 49:22
  Speaker 6: lot of undocumented migrants in this country who are scared
• 49:25
  Speaker 6: to death. Okay, Ice has asked me to go on
• 49:28
  Speaker 6: a couple of ride alongs. There is a part of
• 49:30
  Speaker 6: me that wants to see for myself what is happening,
• 49:32
  Speaker 6: how it's happening, so I can properly report on it.
• 49:34
  Speaker 6: But let's just stick to the story. I just needed
• 49:36
  Speaker 6: to remind you of what's going on in this country
• 49:38
  Speaker 6: to give the proper context to this story.
• 49:40
  Speaker 7: Okay.
• 49:41
  Speaker 6: Stephanie Lovin's was dining at a restaurant called Cazula's Mexican Cantina,
• 49:47
  Speaker 6: and she had a waiter named Ricardo. Now Ricardo is
• 49:50
  Speaker 6: a US citizen, But who cares about that minor detail
• 49:53
  Speaker 6: at a time like this? Okay, Stephanie got upset with Ricardo,
• 49:57
  Speaker 6: and she did this. Let's go to eighty six News
• 49:59
  Speaker 6: for report.
• 49:59
  Speaker 3: Police customers head into Casuela's Mexican Cantina on.
• 50:02
  Speaker 5: East broad Street.
• 50:04
  Speaker 3: Just days after this photo was snapped of a receipt
• 50:06
  Speaker 3: a customer left behind Sunday that includes no tip and
• 50:10
  Speaker 3: a hateful message reading you suck.
• 50:13
  Speaker 5: I hope Trump deports you.
• 50:15
  Speaker 6: I think it's despicable.
• 50:17
  Speaker 12: You know that's not who America is.
• 50:19
  Speaker 9: You know we're all immigrants.
• 50:21
  Speaker 3: Just hours after the photo of the eighty seven dollars
• 50:24
  Speaker 3: bill was posted a social media, it went viral. The
• 50:27
  Speaker 3: restaurants shane not allowing ABC six to talk with employees,
• 50:31
  Speaker 3: but in a statement telling us, in part, we are
• 50:33
  Speaker 3: deeply disappointed by the offensive message left on a recent receipt,
• 50:37
  Speaker 3: which goes against our values and the welcoming environment we
• 50:40
  Speaker 3: strive to create. There is no place for hate in
• 50:43
  Speaker 3: our restaurant. Can't talk to our employees and everybody ain't
• 50:46
  Speaker 3: got their papers.
• 50:46
  Speaker 6: But in the signature section of her receipt, Stephanie wrote,
• 50:49
  Speaker 6: I hope Trump deports you. This isn't fair to migrants, okay,
• 50:53
  Speaker 6: because a lot of Mexicans especially have just become the
• 50:56
  Speaker 6: post to children for undocumented migrants. And that's not fair
• 50:58
  Speaker 6: because most Mexican immigrants in the US are documented, but
• 51:02
  Speaker 6: a significant number are not. But that does not give
• 51:04
  Speaker 6: people like Stephanie a right to profile them. Now I
• 51:07
  Speaker 6: know what a lot of y'all are thinking, because I
• 51:10
  Speaker 6: was thinking it too. How bad was Ricardo's service that
• 51:14
  Speaker 6: Stephanie wanted him to port?
• 51:15
  Speaker 13: It like?
• 51:15
  Speaker 6: This just wasn't a random attack, was it? You just
• 51:18
  Speaker 6: don't go from zero to deport him? Did he not
• 51:20
  Speaker 6: bring the guacamolean chips to the table fast enough that
• 51:23
  Speaker 6: she asked for no salt around the remember from Margarita
• 51:25
  Speaker 6: and Ricardo bought one with salt? Anyway, she wrote, I
• 51:27
  Speaker 6: hope Trump deport you, followed by zero you suck? Zero
• 51:31
  Speaker 6: is the amount of the tip that she wanted to leave.
• 51:33
  Speaker 6: But how bad was the service that she did all
• 51:36
  Speaker 6: of this? Did Ricardo not speak proper English? So there
• 51:38
  Speaker 6: was miscommunication? I'm just trying to figure out or I
• 51:41
  Speaker 6: was just trying to figure out how terrible a Mexican
• 51:44
  Speaker 6: service must be if you want them to port it.
• 51:47
  Speaker 6: I'm gonna be honest, every encounter I've ever had with
• 51:50
  Speaker 6: a Mexican in the service industry has been pleasant.
• 51:53
  Speaker 7: Okay, dropping the clues bombs.
• 51:54
  Speaker 6: For all the Mexicans in the service street, they are
• 51:56
  Speaker 6: super friendly, respectful, very hospitable, warm, which is why they
• 51:59
  Speaker 6: threw in the service industry in this country.
• 52:01
  Speaker 5: So how bad was Ricardo's.
• 52:04
  Speaker 6: Service that Stephanie not only said, I hope Trump deports you,
• 52:06
  Speaker 6: but you sucking god zero tip. Well, if that's what
• 52:09
  Speaker 6: you were thinking, that's wrong. That's not what happened. Stephanie
• 52:13
  Speaker 6: decided to have a side of racism with her Chimney
• 52:16
  Speaker 6: Changa because the restaurant had a one coupon per table
• 52:21
  Speaker 6: policy one coupon per table. Let the record show that
• 52:25
  Speaker 6: one coupon per table usually means one coupon per purchase,
• 52:30
  Speaker 6: So you can get one item, you can't use the
• 52:33
  Speaker 6: coupon for the whole table. I know that's where the
• 52:35
  Speaker 6: discrepancy lied. But the reason Stephanie is getting donkey of
• 52:39
  Speaker 6: to day is because she had first denied any involvement.
• 52:43
  Speaker 6: In fact, she went on social media and claimed that
• 52:45
  Speaker 6: her credit card had been.
• 52:47
  Speaker 7: Lost or stolen and that someone else used it.
• 52:50
  Speaker 6: But this proved to be a lie because the restaurant
• 52:53
  Speaker 6: has cameras, and the restaurant reviewed the footage and confirmed
• 52:57
  Speaker 6: that Stephanie had been sitting in her ass right there
• 53:00
  Speaker 6: in that restaurant the whole time. By the way, I
• 53:02
  Speaker 6: like a good liar, okay, I like a person who
• 53:04
  Speaker 6: makes up extravagant lies and follows through with the lies.
• 53:08
  Speaker 6: Stephanie went on Facebook and said, my credit card was lost,
• 53:11
  Speaker 6: are stolen, and somebody attempted to use it. Thanks for
• 53:14
  Speaker 6: the notifications. This has been reported through my bank. Then
• 53:17
  Speaker 6: she went on LinkedIn and said, thank you for all
• 53:19
  Speaker 6: the recent notifications of scammers and profile hackers. I recently
• 53:23
  Speaker 6: discovered a loss or missing credit card and an attempted purchase.
• 53:27
  Speaker 6: I appreciate your patience while I managed the situation. Then
• 53:30
  Speaker 6: she deleted all her social media accounts altogether smart because
• 53:34
  Speaker 6: she doesn't got the heart to stand on what she said.
• 53:37
  Speaker 6: I like a good liar, but I like a person
• 53:39
  Speaker 6: who stands on what they said. Even more, if you
• 53:42
  Speaker 6: wanted Ricardo to get deported, then stand on that. But
• 53:45
  Speaker 6: I guess that racism wasn't worth losing your job, was it?
• 53:49
  Speaker 6: Please let Chelsea handle give Stephanie Lovins the biggest he
• 53:52
  Speaker 6: haw hee haw hee haw That is way too much,
• 53:55
  Speaker 6: Dan Manes, You're a real estate agent, worked for Century
• 53:58
  Speaker 6: twenty one. You lost your job because you couldn't use
• 54:00
  Speaker 6: a coupon. You want a man deported because you're clearly
• 54:03
  Speaker 6: not selling any houses and wanted to use your coupon.
• 54:08
  Speaker 5: I'm with you. How bad was the service? Where you
• 54:10
  Speaker 5: got a pen and wrote that down?
• 54:11
  Speaker 6: And the service wasn't bad. That's what I thought at
• 54:13
  Speaker 6: first when I first read the story. She was actually
• 54:16
  Speaker 6: upsetting because she couldn't use the coupon. That's what she
• 54:19
  Speaker 6: was upseting. By Rocardo about yes and we know you
• 54:24
  Speaker 6: love Yeah, So what's next?
• 54:29
  Speaker 7: I we know you loved the service of Mexico.
• 54:31
  Speaker 5: I did I love the service?
• 54:33
  Speaker 8: Yes? I did?
• 54:34
  Speaker 5: And that's all all right?
• 54:37
  Speaker 6: So it's the Breakfast Club. Good Morning yep was more

  Speaker 6: Like we had Jill Scott up here. Jill Scott was
• 55:44
  Speaker 6: talking about how like there's certain artists that it ain't
• 55:48
  Speaker 6: about number one records, it ain't about you know, going

• 58:38
  Speaker 13: And uh, you know, I'm.
• 58:40
  Speaker 21: Schooling, exchooling Spotify, Like that's the only place i'thing I
• 58:42
  Speaker 21: put on my music right now.
• 58:43
  Speaker 13: I don't know.
• 58:44
  Speaker 21: You running ice ads, Yeah, yeah, for sure, like they
• 58:50

  Speaker 9: I mean they'll put it.
• 58:56
  Speaker 21: And then and then and then and then the thing
• 58:58
  Speaker 21: where and then there's a thing where there's a lot
• 58:59
  Speaker 21: of if you go down the rabbit hole in terms
• 59:01
  Speaker 21: of moral compass, it's.
• 59:02
  Speaker 13: Just things I don't agree with, you know what I mean?
• 59:04
  Speaker 21: And then and then you and then you add the
• 59:06
  Speaker 21: fact that you know, we get a fraction of a
• 59:08
  Speaker 21: penny as an artist anyway, but that they've been robbing
• 59:10
  Speaker 21: as blind. It's a billion dollar company and we get
• 59:12
  Speaker 21: a fraction of a penny. So when you when you
• 59:14
  Speaker 21: utilize a platform like Even where you know a couple
• 59:20
  Speaker 21: My first release on Even was twenty thirteen Valentine's Day,
• 59:24
  Speaker 21: February thirteenth. That project went on to do somewhere between
• 59:27
  Speaker 21: like thirty and forty K, and only five hundred people
• 59:31
  Speaker 21: bought that album before I went, before I made it
• 59:33
  Speaker 21: public to the world, you know what I mean. So
• 59:36
  Speaker 21: you do the math, five hundred people, you know, thirty
• 59:40
  Speaker 21: or forty k? You know what you have to stream
• 59:42
  Speaker 21: to make thirty forty K? Like you know what I'm
• 59:45
  Speaker 21: saying these days, so so so so Yes, I applaud
• 59:48
  Speaker 21: the fact that you know that that CDs are back
• 59:51
  Speaker 21: and Vinyl never left and even for the cassette tape
• 59:55
  Speaker 21: levers out there trying to figure how we can get it,
• 59:56
  Speaker 21: how we can get it on a track Charlomagne yea yeah.
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 7: Interesting records. I feel so sorry for artists.
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 6: I would be the person that would go to your
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 6: page and buy your album and download it to my phone.
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 13: You know what I mean?
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 5: I would do that because when you.
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 9: Say a fraction of you know, a bunch, a fraction
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 9: of a penny, and they don't even make pennies no more.
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 7: Did you know that, right?
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 21: I mean, hey, that's modern day slavery. But did you
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 21: know no, No, I know, yeah, I got I got
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 21: me right, I got a fifty roll.
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 12: So that the name of the.
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 9: Album quiet, Quiet Storm lover tone them that's a significance.
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 21: Well, you know, you know, you know, I mean transparently,
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 21: I don't speak a link a lick of Frisch closest
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 21: against us to the title of this album. Right, But
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 21: but you know, French has always been associated with the
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 21: love language.
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 13: You know, you know you know what I mean?
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 21: And uh, you know, I probably you know, pepulate, people
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 21: probably know it's my French tonight.
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 6: Why why well just say, like, why did you feel
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 6: like the first chapter or something bigger instead of like
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 6: a standalone album but you know I.
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 21: Want I won't give all the game away today, but
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 21: I will say, you know, having the number one night
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 21: time showing the music in the DMV. Right now, I've
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 21: been I've been doing the original Choirs Storm. I'm now
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 21: doing radio full time Monday through Friday. And it's been
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 21: so surreal because I grew up listening to h U R.
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 21: I grew up listening to the quair Storm. You know,
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 21: Melvin Lindsay.
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 13: It's where it started in d C. You know, Uh,
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 13: Kathy Hughes was was was the one who came up with.
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 21: The idea, gave it the Melvin And so now that
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 21: being in hot seat, I'm living out my I don't
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 21: want to say, like anything I wanted to do as
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 21: a child, I'm in that space right now. Like you know,
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 21: I wanted to do radio. I wanted to do I
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 21: always wanted to have a go go band. I got
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 21: a go go band in DC called the Crank Crusades.
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 21: Shot out to the Crank Crusaders. You know, I'm doing that,
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 21: and you know, and I'm doing radio.
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 13: So this album.
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 21: I think was unique about Quadstorm Lover Volume one in
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 21: particular is that, uh it's a fusion of it's a fuw.
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 21: It's the fusion of my two my my first love
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 21: and my new found love, which is radio and media
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 21: and and you know, and when and when you throw that,
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 21: you know, it sounds it sounds like you know, it's
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 21: it's like, you know, it's a vibe. You don't have
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 21: to just let it play. I like laying plays on.
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 6: I love when R and B lovers do R and
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 6: B radio shows Hotel. Yeah, yeah, you know what I'm saying.
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 6: Your Andre Herrel God blessed dead. He used to do
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 6: champagnes and champagne and bubbles.
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 21: Yeah, it's a vibe, you know. But it all started,
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 21: It all started with with the choir Storm. You know
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 21: that that format, you know what I mean? So to be,
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 21: you know they say you want to make God laugh,
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 21: make your own plans to be to be now doing
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 21: the original choirs Storm in DC has just been like
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 21: I feel like I'm getting my my good karma back
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 21: for all of love.
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 13: I poured it into the city. You know.
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 9: Now with this album, are you writing what were you
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 9: writing about what happened in your love life or this
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 9: this is a credit or just subjective?
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 21: Yeah, I mean, I mean more importantly, just you have
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 21: to test the music out, so you got to make sure.
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 21: You know, I'm big on customer service, so when you
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 21: when you put it together, you got to make sure
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 21: that that it works properly. Yeah, you got to have
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 21: you got to Yeah, this is be blank, yeah you know,
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 21: but I mean yeah, I mean, so, what's also unique
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 21: about this album? It's all slow jams. So you know,
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 21: I'm going on record and saying like you know, like
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 21: you know, this is the slow jam album of the year.
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 21: That's because it's just a slow jam album of the year.
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 21: So if you're looking for you know, I got I
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 21: got you know, I can be Raheem Devon, could be
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 21: many things, right, but this is slow jam album of
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 21: the year. You know, I got some more. I got
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 21: some more treats coming, you know in the next twelve
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 21: to twenty four months. You know, if you if you
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 21: love Conscious, Raheem Mixtape, Nick Nixtape, Raheem Devon, you know,
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 21: but this is this is like, this is slow jams.
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 8: Man.
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 21: When you think about the Quiet Storm, you know, you
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 21: think about Keith Sweat Sweat Shop, you know what I mean,
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 21: Like you think you know it's it's it.
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 13: Don't even require too much talking.
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 21: It's really about that that that that playlist, a KA,
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 21: that laylist and which and what comes you know, what's
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 21: coming on before and after?
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 6: You know what's interesting R and B to day, Like
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 6: it leans so heavy into like basically singing. Sounded like rappers, right,
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 6: So it's like a lot of I guess toxicity in
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 6: a way. What does healthy love fit in modern R
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 6: and B coaching?
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 21: I think I think it fits, man, you know, I
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 21: think that speaks to someone's mental health. A lot of
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 21: time and the space you in. You know, when you
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 21: you know, the older you get, you know, I remember
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 21: somebody telling me, you know, in my thirties and my twenties,
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 21: you know, the forties would be the best time of
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 21: your life.
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 13: You just got to get there.
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 21: Yeah, so you know, by the time you get forty,
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 21: you know, I had a half a century. You know
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 21: which battles in life depict you know what I mean?
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 21: You you you understand the concept of time and that
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 21: we're all running out of time. You know, from the
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 21: time we get here. You understand, uh, you know, the
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 21: gift of decision and free will. Differently, you understand the
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 21: gift of one another. I feel like those are the
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 21: three greatest gifts. And if you utilize those, you know,
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 21: through through your artistry or you know, as it relates
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 21: that matters of the heart and intimacy, all the things.
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 13: You know, you know, life is just a lot easier
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 13: and simpler.
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 21: But you know, it's it's a it's a learning experience
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 21: and and and you know that toxicity is part of
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 21: it's part of growth.
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 9: I guess you know, I love that you had Ari
• 1:05:10

• 1:06:17
  Speaker 21: up under the tutelage and the mentorship of like DJ
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 21: Jazzy Jeff and you know, Kenny Dope, Louis Vega, you know, uh,
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 21: DJ Terry Hunter, like a lot of those guys I
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 21: met uh and countless artists as well through DJ Jazzy Jeff,
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 21: you know what I mean. So I'm just trying to
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 21: pay it forward, you know, uh, with with with with
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 21: artists and and and then and then and then and
• 1:06:38

• 1:06:49
  Speaker 5: You said something interesting, You said that toxicity is part
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 5: of growth.
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 17: Right.
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 6: And it's funny because I think about the R and
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 6: B that I grew up on. The music didn't even
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 6: reflect maybe the lives those guys we're living, yeah, which
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 6: is crazy, Like the music was all about love, It's
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 6: about love making. You know, these guys were begging for
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 6: their women back Like why I don't understand why we
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 6: don't have that energy now. It's almost like the lives
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 6: those guys were living outside of the music back then.
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 6: Those people are doing now and projecting it in their music.
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 13: You know, Charlamagne. Some will blame the generation before us.
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 21: Some will say that that that you know, it wasn't
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 21: passed down you know, you know, you know, and and
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 21: some may argue, you know, we're a product of what
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 21: we see.
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 13: You know, you know, you know what I mean.
• 1:07:38

  Speaker 21: I'm a powerful man. I believe in manifestation, you know, power,
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 21: prayer and you know, but it's the art of I
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 21: think it's I think it's a big difference between believing
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 21: and knowing.
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 13: You know what I mean? And I believe in the art.
• 1:07:58

  Speaker 21: Uh yeah, man, you know I hope that I think

  Speaker 21: means is that boundaries.
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 13: Are you know, you know what I mean. But these
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 13: are things you learned through therapy, you know, through helly
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 13: trial and error.
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 11: You know.
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 21: And yeah, so yeah, I mean, yeah, so every so
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 21: so so so do it do it to be intentional,
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 21: but do it with boundaries. Boundaries are necessary, you know
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 21: what I mean?
• 1:12:13

  Speaker 15: So we have about four hundred locations.
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 4: Taking care of the people of South Jersey and Philadelphia, Delaware.
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 12: They mean taking care of people. Is this for people
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 12: that don't know? Is this older people or this people
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 12: that just have breaking down it a little bit.
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 4: We provide health care for the community, so no matter
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 4: what you need, from birth to hospice, so and everything
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 4: in between, we take care of all that needs our care.
• 1:14:34
  Speaker 6: I mean, that's that's needed now more than ever, especially
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 6: with the way that you know they've gotted the healthcare.
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 12: That's all we're saying.
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 4: You know it is, and particularly in the communities that
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 4: you guys all represent and sort of communicate with, it's
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 4: even more important to me. I don't have the audience
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 4: that you have when I say, y'all, I'm talking about
• 1:14:56
  Speaker 4: the people that tune into listening to you and so
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 4: so that community is very important to me, it's important
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 4: to our organization.
• 1:15:05
  Speaker 20: I was glad to see I didn't know that you
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 20: were a black man in this position, but glad to
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 20: see it because I know a lot of what you
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 20: guys focus on is early detection.
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 2: We do.
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 15: You know the thing that a lot of people don't realize.
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 4: Of the top five largest health systems in the country,
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 4: three of them are run by black men, and so
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 4: we have a special affinity to try and do what's right,
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 4: particularly in light of everything else that's going on in
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 4: the country.
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 15: We're committed to taking care of our community.
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 12: I was going to ask you what everything that's going on,
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 12: like she should kind of mention with the health industry,
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 12: what should people do?
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 8: Right?
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 12: So, you know, there's so many different scenarios.
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 13: Right.
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 12: You hear from people that they go get a surgery
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 12: in December, right now when they go back for postop
• 1:15:49
  Speaker 12: in January, that insurance is no longer covered by that hospital.
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 12: So now they have to find new doctors or not
• 1:15:54
  Speaker 12: covered at all, or they can't afford it. And they're
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 12: saying that there's surgery or whatever they have is not
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 12: necessarily insurance as a coverage, so.
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 5: They have to go through the emergency room. So what
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 5: do you tell those people and.
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 12: Those individuals that are going through all the things that
• 1:16:09
  Speaker 12: I've been taking.
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 4: You ask a great question, you know what, I think
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 4: the number one problem in healthcare today is health literacy,
• 1:16:17
  Speaker 4: is people understanding how to navigate the system, understanding how
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 4: to take care of their bodies.
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 15: I mean, you're a car guy.
• 1:16:24
  Speaker 4: Most people spend more time focusing on the maintenance of
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 4: their vehicles than they do their own bodies.
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 15: And so people showing up at the emergency room, which
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 15: could be you.
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 4: Know, fifteen hundred, two thousand dollars visit when it's something
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 4: they may have been able to do through a virtual
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 4: care or through a primary care at forty dollars or
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 4: sixty dollars. So it's really about trying to educate people
• 1:16:45
  Speaker 4: on how to better navigate a very complex.
• 1:16:49
  Speaker 6: System, and how do you ensure you're showing up with
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 6: purpose every day, not just treating it's like a business.
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 4: First of all, you got to try and better understand
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 4: the people that we're taking care of and understanding what
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 4: their needs are and demonstrate that we're going to be
• 1:17:03
  Speaker 4: there for them when they need us, how they need us,
• 1:17:07
  Speaker 4: and where they need us, and being consistent. You know,
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 4: a lot she was asking about taking care of certain
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 4: population and black.
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 15: Men in particular. You know, there's a lot of distrust
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 15: in healthcare and it's warranted.
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 4: You know, our history has told us that it's certain
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 4: individuals don't get treated the same. And so for me,
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 4: you know, I try and create an environment where we
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 4: have cultural competencies, where people understand the needs of certain
• 1:17:34
  Speaker 4: communities and we show up and we do what's right
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 4: and not always you know, what's best for the moment.
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 12: And how do they get that information you talk about
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 12: you know, people should understand more, but where can people
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 12: get that information from? And usually it's you know, it's
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 12: bottom of the ninth and they can't look for that information.
• 1:17:52
  Speaker 12: It's something's happening now, and I need to get it fixed.
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah, because you know, if you look at it, black
• 1:17:57
  Speaker 4: women have a much higher incidence of death from cancer,
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 4: particularly breast cancer.
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 15: Not because cancer shows up more in black women.
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 4: It's because they get diagnosed at such a later stage
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 4: than the disease have already progressed. So how do you
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 4: prevent that from happening? You know, there's more information now
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 4: than ever. But the problem is there's also a lot
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 4: of misinformation. So finding a reliable source, finding somebody you
• 1:18:27
  Speaker 4: can trust, you know, not on TikTok, but maybe a
• 1:18:30
  Speaker 4: community physician, having a relationship with a health system like
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 4: a Virtua or many others.
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 15: That's what's important. Educate yourself.
• 1:18:39
  Speaker 12: I was gonna ask you know, a lot of times
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 12: people feel like hospitals in the quote unquote hood are
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 12: worse than hospitals in different areas. They feel like doctors
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 12: in the hood you'll get better treatment in different areas.
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 12: What do you say to those, because some of your
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 12: hospitals and your care centers are in the hood that
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 12: should be.
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 15: As they should be. But I will tell you, unfortunately
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 15: some of that is true.
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 4: Really Sometimes you know, people show up with their own biases,
• 1:19:04
  Speaker 4: and that when I'm talking about people some of the staff.
• 1:19:08
  Speaker 4: We have to educate folks, and so at Virtue what
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 4: we do unconscious biased training because there's this misnomer oftentimes
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 4: when some of us show up in emergency rooms that
• 1:19:22
  Speaker 4: were either drug seeking or our pain isn't as severe
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 4: as we make it out to be. And a lot
• 1:19:28
  Speaker 4: of that is because people have their bias about those
• 1:19:31
  Speaker 4: individuals that are coming in and then the other part
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 4: of that urban care. It is tough, you know, because
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 4: of the social economics of it. You know, when you
• 1:19:40
  Speaker 4: have a community that unfortunately may not be able to
• 1:19:45
  Speaker 4: afford insurance and rely on the government as its payer.
• 1:19:51
  Speaker 4: People don't realize that the government is the largest pairer
• 1:19:54
  Speaker 4: of health care there is. We always want to talk
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 4: about if we had a socialized medicine or one pack. Well,
• 1:20:02
  Speaker 4: right now, the government is the largest pair and unfortunately
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 4: it's through Medicare and Medicaid. Medicare pays US eighty five
• 1:20:11
  Speaker 4: cents on the dollar. Medicaid pays US roughly fifty five
• 1:20:14
  Speaker 4: cents on the dollar, and so that's at a loss.
• 1:20:19
  Speaker 4: And so it's difficult to have an ongoing you are
• 1:20:21
  Speaker 4: all business people to have an ongoing business enterprise when
• 1:20:25
  Speaker 4: your biggest payer pay you less than what.
• 1:20:27
  Speaker 13: Your cost is.
• 1:20:29
  Speaker 12: That's one thing I would say that I dislike about
• 1:20:31
  Speaker 12: about certain hospitals. When you go into screen and once
• 1:20:35

  Speaker 12: care more about insurance than the actual was going on,
• 1:20:53
  Speaker 12: you know what I mean, because they'd be like, YO,

• 1:21:20
  Speaker 12: it's it's not personal enough.
• 1:21:22
  Speaker 4: You know, I will agree and disagree, okay, because I
• 1:21:27
  Speaker 4: think in general, people that work in healthcare actually care.
• 1:21:32
  Speaker 4: They're there because most of us have a higher purpose.
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 4: It's not just about the money. It's not just about
• 1:21:40
  Speaker 4: the title. You absolutely absolutely want to take care of folks,
• 1:21:43
  Speaker 4: but there's a business side of it as well. And
• 1:21:47
  Speaker 4: you know we have at Virtual I have about sixteen

  Speaker 4: thousand employees that I have to be able to make

  Speaker 4: And so should you experience that when you walk in
• 1:22:05
  Speaker 4: to be made to feel like a number or made
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 4: to feel like you know, if you don't have insurance,
