- 11:31Speaker 1: My mother in law of the Delta. Good for her.
- 11:33Speaker 1: See that's why you're a nice guy. How do you
- 11:37Speaker 1: feel about the election? And Senator Kamala Harris, what does
- 11:39Speaker 1: that mean for for black women? I'm glad for the country. Actually, uh,
- 11:44Speaker 1: I think it's good for for all of us. But
- 11:47Speaker 1: I think it's a statement for the country when we
- 11:50Speaker 1: look at at at what black women have given to
- 11:53Speaker 1: this country. And of course I'm a big, big fan.
- 11:55Speaker 1: And you couldn't help but love Fandy low Hammer and
- 11:59Speaker 1: missus Hammer and her confrontation with Linda Lyndon Johnson in
- 12:04Speaker 1: nineteen sixty four when she took the Mississippi Freedom Democratic
- 12:09Speaker 1: Party over to Atlantic City and it was back and forth,
- 12:14Speaker 1: they testified and back and forth, and finally Lyndon Johnson
- 12:17Speaker 1: came to missus Hammer, as you know, and said, well,
- 12:20Speaker 1: why don't you take two seats because they miss have
- 12:22Speaker 1: had four, So why don't I give you two seats
- 12:25Speaker 1: and we'll work it out for next time. And missus
- 12:28Speaker 1: Hammer looked at me and said, we didn't come here
- 12:29Speaker 1: for No. Two seats and I've always loved her for that.
- 12:32Speaker 1: So seeing where we are right now, and I'm sorry
- 12:35Speaker 1: that miss Hammer is not here, I know that it
- 12:37Speaker 1: would just absolutely please her. But I know that as
- 12:40Speaker 1: a black woman, having watched things like missus Hammer, I
- 12:45Speaker 1: know that I will always vote. And I was glad
- 12:48Speaker 1: to see the our vote, the black vote was was
- 12:50Speaker 1: such a big turn out. Another poem that I like
- 12:52Speaker 1: that you have that I appreciate is raise your hand
- 12:55Speaker 1: in favor of immigrants, And I thought that was so
- 12:57Speaker 1: well said. So tell me, like I like to know
- 13:00Speaker 1: just because you are so inspirational, Like when you wrote this,
- 13:03Speaker 1: was there something in particular where you're watching the news,
- 13:06Speaker 1: like what inspires you? When you did raise your hand
- 13:08Speaker 1: in favor of immigrants? I thought, yeah, everybody's been complaining
- 13:12Speaker 1: these people are taking my job. Well, if you want
- 13:15Speaker 1: one of those job, raise your hand. Which which job
- 13:18Speaker 1: where you want to raise your hand? Let me let
- 13:20Speaker 1: me see who wants the job. They're working to take
- 13:24Speaker 1: care of their children. They're working to see to that
- 13:26Speaker 1: their children go and again, Harris, is so important here
- 13:30Speaker 1: that their children go to school. They're doing the dirty
- 13:34Speaker 1: jobs that nobody wants to do and what I really
- 13:37Speaker 1: want to know, And I'm gonna call later on this afternoon.
- 13:40Speaker 1: I know a commissioner in DC. I want to know
- 13:43Speaker 1: how many people who worked in the White House died.
- 13:46Speaker 1: Now I know that that Trump didn't die, which was
- 13:48Speaker 1: you know, one of the unfortunate things. I can see
- 13:51Speaker 1: that that that woman that is married to didn't die,
- 13:55Speaker 1: that half wit that he has a son, I wasn't
- 13:58Speaker 1: bound or something didn't die. But I can't believe that
- 14:01Speaker 1: that the COVID has been going around the White House
- 14:03Speaker 1: the way that it has, and the people who are cleaning,
- 14:06Speaker 1: who are changing the bed every day, who are fluffing
- 14:09Speaker 1: the pillow every day, I don't believe that they did
- 14:12Speaker 1: not have the COVID and that some of them haven't died.
- 14:16Speaker 1: Gio Bunny, I want to make sure I heard you
- 14:17Speaker 1: that you said it's unfortunate that that Donald Trump didn't die. Yes,
- 14:21Speaker 1: I thought it was great, greatly unfortunate. Now, huh, you
- 14:23Speaker 1: didn't so you want him you wanted them to pass away? Well,
- 14:28Speaker 1: of course it would have saved a lot of trouble.
- 14:30Speaker 1: It's gonna come up. If I had been a Jew
- 14:33Speaker 1: in Germany, I would have prayed that Hitler died. Of course,
- 14:35Speaker 1: you want Trump to die because he's gonna he's gonna
- 14:38Speaker 1: cause a lot of a lot of problems. He's already
- 14:40Speaker 1: fired the National Security Director. But how many people would
- 14:45Speaker 1: be saved if, right now, if, if, if Trump drop dead? See,
- 14:51Speaker 1: that's just not something you know. We do know, No,
- 14:54Speaker 1: I'm serious, we do know. If and go back to Hitler,
- 14:57Speaker 1: because Hitler's the easy one. How many people? How many
- 15:01Speaker 1: Jewish people? They were, like six million Jewish people. But
- 15:04Speaker 1: then we had the soldiers. I don't know if your
- 15:07Speaker 1: mothers and fathers fought in World War Two, but your
- 15:10Speaker 1: grandparents probably did. How many soldiers had to die so
- 15:14Speaker 1: that we could get rid of this guy? Think about it? Now,
- 15:17Speaker 1: I'm with you. I just you know, I just I
- 15:18Speaker 1: don't like to wish death on people. But I can
- 15:20Speaker 1: understand your perspective. I'm just saying for the for the
- 15:23Speaker 1: you know, it's not personal, But I said that these
- 15:25Speaker 1: people don't mind putting their their knee on George Floyd's neck.
- 15:31Speaker 1: They don't mind shooting beyond a Taylor in her own bed,
- 15:35Speaker 1: in her own house. They don't mind shooting a fourteen
- 15:37Speaker 1: year old boy in the back who was unarmed, and
- 15:39Speaker 1: then they want to get mad because I say something like,
- 15:41Speaker 1: oh well yeah, be really good for him to drop
- 15:44Speaker 1: dead poem to me already, just even you speaking these words,
- 15:52Speaker 1: I can hear it drop dead. But Nikki Giovanni, I
- 15:56Speaker 1: wish all right, we are more with Nikki Giova when
- 16:00Speaker 1: we come back, don't move. It's the breakfast club, God Morning,
- 16:03Speaker 1: the breakfast club putting everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee,
- 16:10Speaker 1: Charlomagne the guy. We are the breakfast club. We're still
- 16:12Speaker 1: kicking it with Nikki Giovanni. Charlomagne. I'll watch your conversation
- 16:15Speaker 1: with James Balling quite often, and there's so many gems
- 16:20Speaker 1: that were in that conversation, like like you're talking about
- 16:22Speaker 1: the language of love. What if the language of love
- 16:24Speaker 1: to you? But right now you and I and you're
- 16:28Speaker 1: like my son right now, but this is the language
- 16:30Speaker 1: of love. We're honestly engaging in each other, We're honestly
- 16:34Speaker 1: sharing with our community and whoever else wants to listen.
- 16:37Speaker 1: We're not closing when as I said earlier, I don't
- 16:41Speaker 1: lock the door, and we're not cutting off any communication here.
- 16:45Speaker 1: Anybody wants to tune in can tune in. That's the
- 16:48Speaker 1: language of love. We are communicating, and we are trying
- 16:52Speaker 1: to help each other get through it because it's still
- 16:54Speaker 1: not gonna be easy. Yeah. I don't know if you
- 16:56Speaker 1: know it now, but there was such a discussion around
- 16:59Speaker 1: your conversation with James Bowin, you know, especially the part
- 17:02Speaker 1: where you said you want a man. You britically told
- 17:05Speaker 1: him lie to me the way you lie to the
- 17:06Speaker 1: white men I love. I will always remember Jimmy's face
- 17:13Speaker 1: when I said that, because he just went like, oh,
- 17:17Speaker 1: because he hadn't thought about it that way, because Jimmy
- 17:20Speaker 1: knew that they do. We do lie to people who
- 17:23Speaker 1: hate us. We smile at them in the morning. We
- 17:27Speaker 1: do lie to the people who hate us. So if
- 17:29Speaker 1: it's going to be a lie, lie to me, I'm
- 17:31Speaker 1: the one trying to make you understand I love you.
- 17:36Speaker 1: I'm the one trying to have a meal for you.
- 17:38Speaker 1: You know, it's fascinating when you look at history, and
- 17:41Speaker 1: I love history. It's fascinating when you look at the
- 17:44Speaker 1: enslaved woman who got up before done and put on
- 17:49Speaker 1: some food. One of the reasons that I and many
- 17:51Speaker 1: other Southerners love food that cooks all day. Is that
- 17:54Speaker 1: we got used to it from our grandmother's and they
- 17:57Speaker 1: got used to it from their grandmothers. But she would
- 17:59Speaker 1: put up hat on and a fire. She would then
- 18:03Speaker 1: go out and to the field with him. They would
- 18:06Speaker 1: work all day and when they came on that would
- 18:08Speaker 1: be came home in this little shack. And you've seen
- 18:12Speaker 1: slave shack, you've seen what they but they gave for
- 18:15Speaker 1: black people to live in. But they would have food
- 18:18Speaker 1: that was warm, that she had cooked, that they would eat.
- 18:22Speaker 1: And that was love. And I think that we have
- 18:25Speaker 1: to recognize the love that we gave. And of course,
- 18:29Speaker 1: let me let me be really kill about that black
- 18:31Speaker 1: men loved and still do black women. We don't have
- 18:35Speaker 1: any history of black men beating black women doing slavery,
- 18:39Speaker 1: don't have any history of that. So when did you
- 18:41Speaker 1: learn it? You see what I'm saying, Well, we got
- 18:45Speaker 1: to do this again because I do want to do
- 18:47Speaker 1: a whole topic on love. I have to go catch
- 18:49Speaker 1: a flight. Yeah you can step by. I gotta ask
- 18:53Speaker 1: a couple more questions. I don't know what were gonna have.
- 18:54Speaker 1: Nikki Giovanni on Okay, because you have a quote that
- 18:58Speaker 1: I love and I wish era of cancel culture and
- 19:01Speaker 1: more people would adopt it. You say mistakes are a
- 19:04Speaker 1: fact of life. It is the response to the era
- 19:07Speaker 1: that counts. Could you could you expand on that? Oh, no,
- 19:09Speaker 1: that's quite true. People will get upset when they when
- 19:13Speaker 1: they get upset if they have their wrong boyfriend or girlfriend.
- 19:16Speaker 1: They get upset if they don't get the job they thought.
- 19:19Speaker 1: People get upset because they think that life should be smooth,
- 19:23Speaker 1: and we all are going to make mistakes. There's a
- 19:25Speaker 1: reason pencils every racers. And one of the things that
- 19:29Speaker 1: I am a firm believer in, and it's fine, I
- 19:31Speaker 1: don't read my own I don't read. I seldom I
- 19:34Speaker 1: shouldn't say don't, but very seldom read my old poetry.
- 19:37Speaker 1: It's because I don't. I don't mind contradicting myself. And
- 19:41Speaker 1: I would say that I teach it at here at
- 19:44Speaker 1: Virginia Tech. And one of the things I try to
- 19:47Speaker 1: tell my students is don't involve yourself too much in
- 19:52Speaker 1: your early writing, because if you do, you're trying not
- 19:56Speaker 1: to contradict yourself. If you won't contradict yourself, you won't grow.
- 20:02Speaker 1: And one of the sad things, and I knew I
- 20:05Speaker 1: had the pleasure of knowing that she was my sorority sister,
- 20:09Speaker 1: Aretha Franklin. But also I looked at a young Michael Jackson.
- 20:14Speaker 1: I didn't know. I knew Michael, but not like we
- 20:16Speaker 1: weren't friends. And what he did as a singer, what
- 20:20Speaker 1: she did actually as a singer, what the Prince did
- 20:23Speaker 1: as a singer is they kept singing the same song,
- 20:26Speaker 1: and if you're singing the same song, eventually it wears
- 20:29Speaker 1: you down. So we know that Prince. I'm sure you
- 20:32Speaker 1: know that Prince was not, for example, a drug addict.
- 20:35Speaker 1: Prince died because she had pills because of the pain.
- 20:40Speaker 1: He was trying to dance. He was trying to put
- 20:43Speaker 1: on high heel shoes and dance because he thought that's
- 20:46Speaker 1: what people wanted. And of course, but that's what people wanted,
- 20:50Speaker 1: to not leave the door open and go out and do.
- 20:54Speaker 1: Because she's a great musician. It's a shame that we
- 20:57Speaker 1: lost him because she wanted to be something that he
- 21:01Speaker 1: had been finished with. Man, it was such a pleasure.
- 21:03Speaker 1: You know, everything you're saying is amazing, and it gives
- 21:06Speaker 1: me such a better understanding of myself. And that's what
- 21:08Speaker 1: a wise woman once said, If you don't understand yourself.
- 21:11Speaker 1: You don't understand anyone else. Now, wise woman was miss
- 21:13Speaker 1: Nikki Giovanni. So thank you. Go pick up the book
- 21:17Speaker 1: Make Me Rain Poems and Pros, Miss Giovanni. It was
- 21:21Speaker 1: a pleasure. Oh thank you, it's my pleasure. Thank you,
- 21:24Speaker 1: thank you. It's a breakfast club. It's time to shoot

- 25:42Speaker 1: I can't believe you. You got me on the breakfast
- 25:46Speaker 1: club like everybody listening to it. Yeah, all right, So
- 25:50Speaker 1: so Andre, you're being honest though you guys are just
- 25:53Speaker 1: sleeping around. You don't want to be with her? No,
- 25:55Speaker 1: I don't want to. I'm not trying to do all that.
- 25:58Speaker 1: I mean, Nitia, He's honest with you. You know it
- 26:00Speaker 1: now to you if you decide no, I mean listening
- 26:04Speaker 1: you you gotta stop playing if you don't want a
- 26:06Speaker 1: girl to think that you don't want to be with hers,
- 26:07Speaker 1: and you gotta stop doing the stuff that you do.
- 26:09Speaker 1: You treat me mad a nice. Well he should still
- 26:13Speaker 1: treat you at nice. But yeah, you mean you're going
- 26:20Speaker 1: around you're just eating mad booty. You ask everywhere you go,

- 26:43Speaker 1: a sixty nine in the ball. Yeah, it sounds like
- 26:45Speaker 1: y'all belong together if you ask me. But okay, but
- 26:47Speaker 1: instead of time to disrespect each other, I guess what
- 26:50Speaker 1: it is, Nitia. He don't want to be with you
- 26:51Speaker 1: like that. So if you still want to continue to
- 26:53Speaker 1: mess with him because he treats you nice, that's on you.
- 26:56Speaker 1: But just know it's not a relationship. Well, he might
- 26:58Speaker 1: not want to be with me, but he's gonna have

- 27:48Speaker 1: list one. This was a little too far out of
- 27:49Speaker 1: our tax bracket. Yeah, Andrew, I hope that you enjoyed
- 27:51Speaker 1: your little fun, because now you're about to have a
- 27:53Speaker 1: little fun on the way. Okay, said I name the
- 27:56Speaker 1: next thing she's gonna be saying it's you your song? Yeah,

- 28:35Speaker 1: to tell my brother, Fine, I'm gonna tell him. I'm

- 30:25Speaker 1: of this thing. I'm from South Carolina, so I shouldn't
- 30:26Speaker 1: root from the Cowboys. How do you do it? Being
- 30:28Speaker 1: from New York and you know you got the Giants
- 30:30Speaker 1: and the Jets. How could you be a Cowboys fan
- 30:32Speaker 1: in this city? I grew up my pop. It's really
- 30:34Speaker 1: my pop Fart, you know, and here he grew up
- 30:36Speaker 1: in Yeah, that that era, that that era. Those guys
- 30:39Speaker 1: who you know, wanted that. That whole cowboy lifestyle. All
- 30:42Speaker 1: those guys was on coking. Uh, definitely got the whole
- 30:47Speaker 1: thing packed. I could give you the whole profile. Did
- 30:50Speaker 1: you have bathro Yeah? Absolutely? But I bet your dad
- 30:54Speaker 1: didn't take somebody at the Cowboys Jets game like Charlemagne's dad.
- 30:58Speaker 1: He's a real fanatic. He did at first game Cowboys
- 31:02Speaker 1: Jets at the met like stadium like in this Yes,
- 31:09Speaker 1: got arrested. Let him in with it. You got into
- 31:11Speaker 1: a fight with some jests. Serious. I definitely wanted to
- 31:14Speaker 1: put that on the profile. Type of that type of
- 31:18Speaker 1: fan and my Pops team, so I couldn't, like, you know,
- 31:21Speaker 1: I had to watch you growing up. I was shocked
- 31:23Speaker 1: at one thing on Twitter when you said that Magna
- 31:24Speaker 1: Carta Holy Grail you thought was fighting for fourth place
- 31:27Speaker 1: as far as best albums. I mean only fourth places,
- 31:30Speaker 1: but I mean fighting for that three. You gotta fight
- 31:32Speaker 1: reasonab moved out Blueprint in the Black Album. That's that's
- 31:35Speaker 1: just hard. Is that the order you put it in?
- 31:37Speaker 1: Reasonable Doubt? Reason moved out, Well, yeah, it's the first
- 31:40Speaker 1: album I mate, because you know that's that's the joint.
- 31:43Speaker 1: I took my whole life to me. Reason moved out,
- 31:45Speaker 1: then Blueprint in the Black Album, and sometimes I switched
- 31:47Speaker 1: the Blueprint Black album. Don't don't tell them, Abody. Is
- 31:49Speaker 1: it hard because you're competing againt yourself. You know, you
- 31:52Speaker 1: can't compare to me. You can't compare Holy Grail a
- 31:54Speaker 1: Reasonable Doubt all the blue Print. It was different times
- 31:57Speaker 1: in your life. True, That's part of the reason why
- 31:59Speaker 1: I put it forth. It's very difficult to like recreate
- 32:02Speaker 1: those times. Those times was like, obviously you can't bring
- 32:06Speaker 1: those times back, but just for it to be so high,
- 32:09Speaker 1: it says what I think about it, what's the inspiration?
- 32:11Speaker 1: Because I know used to say big, what was inspired
- 32:13Speaker 1: you to just spare nas? But do you get inspired
- 32:16Speaker 1: by artists now the ever I grew up in it's
- 32:19Speaker 1: like biggie nas, you know, two pockets. It's very difficult
- 32:23Speaker 1: to compare to those, to those guys. You know, I'm
- 32:25Speaker 1: inspired by my previous work, so that's I have to
- 32:29Speaker 1: measure myself against that. And because there's a lot of
- 32:31Speaker 1: the music to me, it doesn't I know, it makes
- 32:33Speaker 1: you sound like an old head. Made me sound like, oh,
- 32:34Speaker 1: but it just don't sound the same. It don't feel
- 32:36Speaker 1: the same. That's good music. It's just it's just you
- 32:39Speaker 1: gotta you gotta mind for it. But that's what happened,
- 32:41Speaker 1: you know when when anything successful, Like people were rapping
- 32:44Speaker 1: because they loved the rap, and then it became this business,
- 32:47Speaker 1: this multi billion dollar business. So people that didn't even
- 32:50Speaker 1: care to rap was like, I figure out how to
- 32:52Speaker 1: get some money in this. So you had people who
- 32:54Speaker 1: could rap a little bit and saw it as a hustle.
- 32:56Speaker 1: Then you had guy's CEO's rapping. No this is no no,
- 32:59Speaker 1: just respect to anyone. Just to be clear. You have
- 33:02Speaker 1: people rapping like Yo, you should rap like big Toe
- 33:05Speaker 1: Puff you should rap. Puff wasn't a rapper, you know,
- 33:09Speaker 1: he was Puff, you know what I'm saying. So, and
- 33:12Speaker 1: he's so seven million records. He may be more about now,
- 33:15Speaker 1: you know, with the catalog, but he's so seven million
- 33:17Speaker 1: records of No Way Out. He never rapped before. So
- 33:20Speaker 1: when people see that, they emulate that. So now you
- 33:22Speaker 1: got all kinds of CEOs rapping, and now you have
- 33:25Speaker 1: I'm a CEO rapping. So um, it's flooded with guys
- 33:30Speaker 1: who aren't rappers. So you just gotta mind it and
- 33:32Speaker 1: you got your fine good music. Still it's just more difficult,
- 33:35Speaker 1: so fine, So Puff, after game of what nat what?
- 33:45Speaker 1: What arders of yours did you signed? Are you more
- 33:46Speaker 1: proud of? Because you're responsible for a lot of careers
- 33:49Speaker 1: out of it? Wow, you have to say Kanye West
- 33:52Speaker 1: the most successful at this stage of his career and
- 33:55Speaker 1: his growth and the and the progress that he's made,
- 33:57Speaker 1: It's like it's unbelievable, you know. Like when he first
- 34:01Speaker 1: came in, it was he wasn't that the artist that
- 34:04Speaker 1: he is today, you know, but he always aspired to
- 34:06Speaker 1: be from that moment, Like from the moment he walked
- 34:08Speaker 1: through the door when he was just the producer, not
- 34:12Speaker 1: just the producer. When he was the producer, you know,
- 34:14Speaker 1: he had it in his eyes. He was saying stuff like,
- 34:16Speaker 1: you know, I am the saving of Chicago, and I
- 34:19Speaker 1: was like, what are you even talking about? You don't
- 34:21Speaker 1: even have a single. But he proved to be prophetic
- 34:25Speaker 1: in that way. What did you think of Y's album,
- 34:27Speaker 1: last album, Jesus? I liked it, like I come on,
- 34:30Speaker 1: how the ten records? I give him four? That's good.
- 34:36Speaker 1: That's like forty percent of a record. That's pretty good. Man.
- 34:39Speaker 1: He's got an amazing catalog though, like she should never
- 34:42Speaker 1: put out anything that people even consider itself part Jesus.
- 34:47Speaker 1: But some people love that album, you know, and that's
- 34:52Speaker 1: what great UTI is is polarizing. Some people love it.
- 34:55Speaker 1: You know. It forced you to have an opinion, like
- 34:57Speaker 1: you know, Lesia, not like wish you ash about it,
- 35:00Speaker 1: you know, and force you to have an opinion, which
- 35:02Speaker 1: is good and I think it's needed, you know, it's
- 35:04Speaker 1: it's needed because what tends to happen is someone has
- 35:06Speaker 1: to experiment and go do it first, and then artists
- 35:10Speaker 1: sit back and watch it and be like Okay, I
- 35:12Speaker 1: like this. I don't like that, you know, I like
- 35:14Speaker 1: this part. And they're perfective methods. And then you know,
- 35:17Speaker 1: and it all pushes j genre forward, which is good.
- 35:20Speaker 1: And that's what he does. He's only he's like the cowboy.
- 35:22Speaker 1: You know. He runs over the hill and then you know,
- 35:24Speaker 1: the Indians hit him with the arrows and then he
- 35:27Speaker 1: comes back like yo, it's a lot of them over there,
- 35:30Speaker 1: and then we go over there and conquer. What's your
- 35:32Speaker 1: reaction whenever you hit him like denounced corporations, being that
- 35:36Speaker 1: you are such a corporated See as you know, I
- 35:38Speaker 1: think all you know, as an individual, I respect that.
- 35:41Speaker 1: It's what he chooses to do. Me myself, I can
- 35:44Speaker 1: operate in that venue. I can operate, you know. I
- 35:47Speaker 1: can walk that line between putting out great art and
- 35:50Speaker 1: you know, getting paid from my art. I'm not I'm
- 35:52Speaker 1: not one of those that they could talk to and
- 35:54Speaker 1: be like, you're you're an artist, you shouldn't have money,
- 35:57Speaker 1: Like that's the gas they hit you with. Yeah, I
- 35:59Speaker 1: don't want any money. I want to be a pure
- 36:01Speaker 1: artist and I don't want to have the music business.
- 36:04Speaker 1: If that's the case, you should any artists, any artists,
- 36:07Speaker 1: not Kanye West, any artists. They should just record in
- 36:09Speaker 1: their basement in the bood. Into the music business like
- 36:13Speaker 1: to consume music too fast because you create these amazing moments,
- 36:16Speaker 1: but then the moment it's fleeting as soon as you
- 36:18Speaker 1: put the abut it's like people in on it for
- 36:19Speaker 1: a few days. Then okay, Jay Coole came out, while
- 36:22Speaker 1: it comes out the next week, while it's out, now
- 36:24Speaker 1: holds out you know what I mean. Yeah, again, the
- 36:27Speaker 1: time that we're end right, we have to figure out.
- 36:30Speaker 1: I mean, it's up to the individual to figure out
- 36:32Speaker 1: how to slow it down, because you know, it's just
- 36:34Speaker 1: going faster and faster. Everything is moving, you know, quicker.
- 36:37Speaker 1: You know, information is going quicker. You know it's again
- 36:41Speaker 1: like you said, you know, these these great things are fleeting.
- 36:44Speaker 1: They're going faster and faster, and it's up to the
- 36:46Speaker 1: individual to slow it down and be like, Okay, I'm
- 36:48Speaker 1: living with this album. This is what I choose to
- 36:50Speaker 1: ride too. This is gonna be the sound track to
- 36:52Speaker 1: my life for these next couple months. That's something I'm saying, Yeah,
- 36:55Speaker 1: that's that's an individual thing. I'm not gonna let anybody
- 36:57Speaker 1: speed up my process. I don't care what's happen and
- 37:00Speaker 1: then out there that's that's that's the great thing about
- 37:03Speaker 1: you know, having ultimate confidence in yourself is it doesn't
- 37:06Speaker 1: matter what's happened, and I don't care what's happening. I
- 37:08Speaker 1: don't care what you on or this person's on. This
- 37:10Speaker 1: is what I like telling me. For me, you ever
- 37:12Speaker 1: got to watch your lyrics because you know, things you
- 37:14Speaker 1: say people take literally. Like I remember watching the press
- 37:17Speaker 1: conference at the White House and they're quoting jay Z
- 37:19Speaker 1: lyrics about something that you said. You ever be like, man,
- 37:20Speaker 1: maybe I shouldn't have said that. Nah, I'm an artist.
- 37:23Speaker 1: I have the creative license to say whatever whatever I
- 37:27Speaker 1: feel at that moment. You know, I find things funny,
- 37:30Speaker 1: like you know, the Obama thing Obama said, the irony
- 37:33Speaker 1: and that the fact that people really believe that, and
- 37:35Speaker 1: it really was like you lie like you believe that
- 37:42Speaker 1: you do say hastacks acts only. Yeah, yeah, irony. You
- 37:46Speaker 1: gotta have some irony and music, you know, an age
- 37:49Speaker 1: old hood question. I always say that you put too
- 37:51Speaker 1: much pressure on belief because early in his career you
- 37:53Speaker 1: said he was gonna be the new improved jay Z
- 37:56Speaker 1: and he was good, but everybody was waiting on him
- 37:58Speaker 1: to be that, so you feel like you might kind
- 38:00Speaker 1: of you know, Yeah, it's just a little brother, like
- 38:02Speaker 1: almost a little brother syndrome. He had it. He had
- 38:05Speaker 1: it more so than anybody because he really grew up
- 38:07Speaker 1: with me. He really grew up in you know, on
- 38:10Speaker 1: the third floor and the same projects from me, So
- 38:13Speaker 1: he really had it. He had my shadow on him, uh,
- 38:16Speaker 1: you know the whole time. So whether I said those
- 38:18Speaker 1: things or not, it was just there. You know, me
- 38:20Speaker 1: saying those things was actually trying to deflect them, you know,
- 38:23Speaker 1: trying to deflect some of it away from him. I
- 38:25Speaker 1: wasn't trying to put more on him. It was just
- 38:27Speaker 1: like elephant in the room. You walk in the room,
- 38:29Speaker 1: like everybody's thinking, Yo, that's the you know, that's the
- 38:33Speaker 1: next guy. It's just natural. I never saw you do
- 38:35Speaker 1: that with any of your other artists. Afterwards, I wondered
- 38:36Speaker 1: if that was something you said, you know what, I'm
- 38:38Speaker 1: not gonna ever do that. Yeah, he was just again,
- 38:39Speaker 1: he was just one of a kind, like he really
- 38:41Speaker 1: was from the like you know, vow his mother. I
- 38:44Speaker 1: used to go and then like foul open the door
- 38:46Speaker 1: and drag him off the house. You know. So he
- 38:49Speaker 1: was a unique guy and he's been very loyal to you. Yeah,
- 38:54Speaker 1: Bleak is an amazing soul. He's an incredible person. Always.
- 38:57Speaker 1: People don't you don't you know how much pressure people
- 38:59Speaker 1: putting on you should have one hundred million dollars, you know,
- 39:04Speaker 1: it's crazy. I'm realistic things. Bleak gets busy in the street.
- 39:07Speaker 1: He'll come see you too. If you say the wrong thing,
- 39:08Speaker 1: he'll definitely come to see you. I don't know, not
- 39:10Speaker 1: of recent, but you don't pump Bleak up definitely comes. Okay,
- 39:15Speaker 1: question as a fan, is it ever awkward when you're
- 39:17Speaker 1: in the room with us, because that either takeover beef
- 39:19Speaker 1: what y'all wasn't light? It was disrespectful. Yeah it was.
- 39:22Speaker 1: It was a time. There was a moment of time
- 39:24Speaker 1: that was a great moment for hip hop. But for us,
- 39:26Speaker 1: you know, we really have a good relationship. We laugh,
- 39:29Speaker 1: We don't even that thing is so far past, and
- 39:32Speaker 1: I understand why even today that thing is eleven years
- 39:36Speaker 1: old maybe longer, and like people still fascinated with it,
- 39:39Speaker 1: but it's so far removed. It's so far in the background.
- 39:43Speaker 1: That is that now we're not we're not all around
- 39:46Speaker 1: each other at all for both of you. It's not like, Okay,
- 39:48Speaker 1: now this guy just destroyed me, because that happens sometimes
- 39:50Speaker 1: with beef. But you guys both were successful still after that.
- 39:53Speaker 1: You even more so, You've heard a lot of careers,
- 39:56Speaker 1: as she wants to say, you know, rappers competitive, you know,
- 39:59Speaker 1: it's competitive. Each time I went out, I put my
- 40:01Speaker 1: I put my my career on the line as well,
- 40:04Speaker 1: you know, like that could have happened to me. You know,
- 40:06Speaker 1: everybody wanted it to happen, like, yeah they did. It
- 40:09Speaker 1: was it was a time it was like, please please
- 40:12Speaker 1: let this guy go away. That's just the nature of
- 40:15Speaker 1: rap is competitive, and you know every time you go
- 40:18Speaker 1: out there, you put in your career on the line.
- 40:20Speaker 1: Would you ever do a King of New York album
- 40:21Speaker 1: with nas like how you and you did watch the
- 40:23Speaker 1: Throwe not? Probably not at this point, you know, like
- 40:27Speaker 1: any other collaboration album would have to be with Kanye
- 40:31Speaker 1: because you know this chemistry there and we already know
- 40:33Speaker 1: how we work, and I don't really have the time
- 40:35Speaker 1: to really like just figure out those situations and how
- 40:38Speaker 1: a person works, and it's hard to do. It's hard
- 40:41Speaker 1: to do, especially you're gonna make something great. The hardest
- 40:43Speaker 1: thing ever was, you know, going through those all Kelly albums.
- 40:47Speaker 1: It's just you just never know how the situation is
- 40:49Speaker 1: gonna turn out. It's a it's an X factor that
- 40:51Speaker 1: you can't even calculate in your mind that you know
- 40:54Speaker 1: can can happen at any moment that you'd be like
- 40:56Speaker 1: in the hotel ready to make an announcement. It's like,
- 40:59Speaker 1: what what just happened? We had we had Jada kiss
- 41:09Speaker 1: up here and we were talking about when it comes
- 41:11Speaker 1: to trying to get you on the phone and trying
- 41:13Speaker 1: to get some master spinning people, sounds like real talk
- 41:22Speaker 1: to me though, you know that's yeah, kids can get
- 41:26Speaker 1: me on the phone anytime. You have a lot of
- 41:30Speaker 1: New York artists complaining about the state of New York pop.
- 41:32Speaker 1: You are a New York artist over the years, have
- 41:35Speaker 1: you looked at New York and said, what's going on
- 41:37Speaker 1: with with with our city musically? Uh? Yeah, but that's
- 41:41Speaker 1: just a thing. That's just the way music moves. You know,
- 41:43Speaker 1: it was out out, wear out, down South or you
- 41:46Speaker 1: know whatever, that's that's the way it moves. Complaining does
- 41:49Speaker 1: nothing make music? Make some great music, And that's st
- 41:53Speaker 1: end of it. I don't even know what to say.
- 41:56Speaker 1: You know, holds like I'm too busy winning the world
- 41:58Speaker 1: here that complains. I don't no, I just don't care
- 42:00Speaker 1: about it. It's it's like it's almost like a loser's mentality.
- 42:03Speaker 1: It's like everyone so spoil you. Like it's it's like,
- 42:06Speaker 1: you know, uh, he won't let me shine. I even
- 42:09Speaker 1: heard someone say, like, Yo, why Jay won't let Kanye.
- 42:13Speaker 1: I'm like, let Kanye. Kanye's Kanye. He's gonna, he's gonna,
- 42:16Speaker 1: he's gonna do what he does. That's loses mentality. When
- 42:19Speaker 1: we were gonna sound like one of them, one of
- 42:21Speaker 1: those drafts when we were coming up. You know, my
- 42:24Speaker 1: albums came out with Outcast, Lauren Q, all of them
- 42:27Speaker 1: in one week. You know, everybody did good. You know,
- 42:31Speaker 1: look at look at the chart now it's it's Leet
- 42:34Speaker 1: number one, shameless plug Rock Nation managed artist Jay Cole,
- 42:38Speaker 1: which probably go to number one next week for the
- 42:41Speaker 1: first time ever. But he'll go to next number one.
- 42:43Speaker 1: Rock Nation and his Kanye everyone's flourishing. You gotta be
- 42:47Speaker 1: out You gotta be able to compete. Still shopping. Still,
- 42:49Speaker 1: you gotta get out there and you gotta earn your spot.
- 42:52Speaker 1: It's not given. It's such a spoil you brat loses
- 42:57Speaker 1: mentality does it's it's it's annoyance. Fatherhood changed you at all?
- 43:01Speaker 1: Oh as far as lyrics, as right? As far as lyrics,
- 43:16Speaker 1: I'm thinking right now? Is similar? Right? No, I got
- 43:18Speaker 1: a new one. I'm thinking of similar pampas right now? Yeah,
- 43:20Speaker 1: I mean absolutely. You know? How was jazz a dad?
- 43:24Speaker 1: I hope, I'm great, but I'm learning again. It's a
- 43:27Speaker 1: new thing for me and change me in the way
- 43:30Speaker 1: that just knowing what's important. But I had a pretty
- 43:33Speaker 1: good sense to that. But it just reaffirmed all the
- 43:36Speaker 1: things that I believed I knew. Now, how are you
- 43:39Speaker 1: with with you know the reason the master? Because I'm
- 43:40Speaker 1: going through now? So how were you with every two
- 43:42Speaker 1: hours the baby getting up and changing pampas a similar way?
- 43:45Speaker 1: An army man? You ain't do that that I mean,
- 43:47Speaker 1: of course, but come on man, it's hard. Man. Can
- 43:53Speaker 1: I ask you a question? Um? The first thing I
- 43:55Speaker 1: thought when I heard about the questions the rack Nation
- 43:58Speaker 1: sport you have to give up your seats at the
- 44:00Speaker 1: Barclay Center. No open part was true, Okay, I just
- 44:05Speaker 1: want to make sure, because you know what you own
- 44:07Speaker 1: the building. I'm still there. No, because I used to
- 44:09Speaker 1: be able to go to the next games and sitting
- 44:10Speaker 1: your seats because you never loaded. Don't want you good
- 44:21Speaker 1: write you in four games a year for you moving
- 44:24Speaker 1: into sports management? Does it fail to you? Like a
- 44:26Speaker 1: lot of people don't want you to succeed because they're
- 44:28Speaker 1: saying that's a really tough business. There's a lot of
- 44:30Speaker 1: agents that feel like, well, what does jay Z know
- 44:32Speaker 1: about sports management? And he hasn't done this, and he
- 44:34Speaker 1: hasn't done that yet. But they have that belief that
- 44:36Speaker 1: they you can only do one thing. You know, we
- 44:38Speaker 1: we we don't. We don't have that. We don't We're
- 44:40Speaker 1: not inflicted with that disease. You know, I can walk
- 44:44Speaker 1: into gum. You know. It's it's like it's it's insane
- 44:47Speaker 1: to even say that what you know about sports, it's
- 44:49Speaker 1: like everything more than you you know. And as far
- 44:55Speaker 1: as business, those guys have been sitting around just doing
- 44:59Speaker 1: the typical thing. Right, they get the athlete, they get them,
- 45:02Speaker 1: knock on the same doors, they go to Nike, you know,
- 45:04Speaker 1: they do the contract and they sit back anything else.
- 45:07Speaker 1: So they've been sitting around for twenty thirty years, just
- 45:11Speaker 1: not doing anything, same formula. Yeah, so me coming, that's
- 45:14Speaker 1: a problem for them because now they have to go
- 45:16Speaker 1: to work. Now, they have to wake up, now they
- 45:18Speaker 1: have to do things. So they don't want me to.
- 45:20Speaker 1: They don't want me around because now they have to
- 45:23Speaker 1: they have to do something for these athletes. They don't
- 45:25Speaker 1: even care about that. That's why those guys go broke
- 45:27Speaker 1: in four years. It's like a shame like this, Like
- 45:30Speaker 1: it's an average, it's three to four years. We're talking
- 45:32Speaker 1: about guys who were signing for ninety million, eighty six
- 45:36Speaker 1: million dollars are broken four years. That's terrible money management.
- 45:40Speaker 1: But because Skis, guys don't care. They're just taking whatever's
- 45:44Speaker 1: gonna get them a check and they're not even worrying
- 45:46Speaker 1: about all that we're doing all of that. Yeah, that's
- 45:48Speaker 1: been an ongoing problem with sports, but athletes going bro
- 45:52Speaker 1: But then you have people who say, what does jay
- 45:53Speaker 1: Z know about money? Yeah? People always say if if
- 46:00Speaker 1: Biggie had in the past, hole wouldn't be here. I
- 46:03Speaker 1: knew you've heard that before. That's just that's ridiculous, right,
- 46:06Speaker 1: that's that's I mean, I was here, why Biggie was here.
- 46:09Speaker 1: You know, some people say you made your best material
- 46:12Speaker 1: when he was here. Yeah, I think I think I
- 46:15Speaker 1: think just just us again, like I said, still shopping, Still,
- 46:18Speaker 1: the way we were working in the album that we
- 46:20Speaker 1: were going to create together would have only made me better. Um,
- 46:24Speaker 1: you know as a lyricists so and then and it's
- 46:27Speaker 1: just like you know, that's that's God's plan. You know,
- 46:32Speaker 1: this God's plan is just like saying Biggie wouldn't be
- 46:34Speaker 1: here if you know rock Kim had if rock Kim
- 46:40Speaker 1: had been on the Faith remix or like it's like
- 46:43Speaker 1: like it's like you can make up any scenario in
- 46:46Speaker 1: your mind why a person shouldn't be here or person
- 46:49Speaker 1: wouldn't uh attain the success that they have. But I
- 46:54Speaker 1: personally don't believe anybody could could stop me. I really
- 46:58Speaker 1: that's just how I believe it was gonna be. I
- 47:01Speaker 1: was coming and I was destined to be here, and
- 47:03Speaker 1: it just it just is what it is. Why people
- 47:05Speaker 1: can't give you that the why? Why is it you
- 47:07Speaker 1: got to be something else, a little big, big with
- 47:10Speaker 1: he wouldn't be like that, he's in illuminaty. Why can't
- 47:12Speaker 1: you just be good and successful nowadays? Uh? That's a
- 47:16Speaker 1: very philosophical question, because you have you know, you have to.
- 47:19Speaker 1: I can only assume, right, I can only assume because
- 47:22Speaker 1: I don't know the answer that except that, you know,
- 47:24Speaker 1: sometimes people's success, you know, make people feel instead of saying, Wow,
- 47:29Speaker 1: that person's successful, and uh, I'm in spite where some
- 47:32Speaker 1: people are. Some people like that person's successful. I'm I'm
- 47:35Speaker 1: striving on be exactly where they are. And some people
- 47:37Speaker 1: are just like you got the reverse attitude, like their
- 47:41Speaker 1: success means my failure. So I'd hate that success. So
- 47:45Speaker 1: I have to I have to make some kind of
- 47:48Speaker 1: explanation of why they're here and why they shouldn't be here,
- 47:51Speaker 1: and then why they wouldn't be here if this person
- 47:53Speaker 1: was here? Who thinks like that? If you take that
- 47:55Speaker 1: longer to think, if you take that longer more so
- 47:59Speaker 1: in hip hop coach, if you take that long to
- 48:01Speaker 1: think about someone why they shouldn't be here, and you're
- 48:04Speaker 1: good and you should be doing something with that intelligence.
- 48:10Speaker 1: You should apply that intelligence to something else. Absolutely, boom,
- 48:17Speaker 1: we can't get fool again. We clear. These two are
- 48:20Speaker 1: argued about who knew Jay the longest? Who too? Angela
- 48:23Speaker 1: and dj Envy Okay, No, I definitely knew Nvy before Ange.
- 48:27Speaker 1: I told my Numb before marriage. But I was on
- 48:29Speaker 1: the hook to when it was that wax No, No,
- 48:32Speaker 1: I think I need to help y'all back up in
- 48:34Speaker 1: an apartment in Brooke when I knew you. I think
- 48:43Speaker 1: I think I might have known you longer than Envy though,
- 48:45Speaker 1: imagine because I should have bought that taping because when
- 48:48Speaker 1: I first met you, you were giving out Cassette's a
- 48:50Speaker 1: Dead President's single. Yeah, I had to record the album first.
- 48:54Speaker 1: It was a single though it wasn't the whole album.
- 48:56Speaker 1: It was no but I'm saying I had to record it.
- 48:58Speaker 1: He was he was there first. I'm gonna just give
- 48:59Speaker 1: him well. Shortly thereafter that's when he was DJ Shrimp.
- 49:04Speaker 1: It was definitely j Do you ever feel sorry for
- 49:07Speaker 1: Damon dash Man whenever you hear about like his financial
- 49:09Speaker 1: problems and things like that. Dame Dames a hustler. Damon
- 49:12Speaker 1: figured out like they ain't very smart. Guy can't figure
- 49:16Speaker 1: it out. He was definitely playing your album and on Instagram,
- 49:20Speaker 1: sweet Nah. It was the barbershop Bob and his head
- 49:23Speaker 1: crazy to it. He said he liked it. He said
- 49:25Speaker 1: he felt like he was a part of that. He
- 49:27Speaker 1: knows you're telling the truth. I feel like, you know what,
- 49:29Speaker 1: people gotta understanding. Nothing's gonna change the way I feel
- 49:32Speaker 1: about Damon, you know, no matter not no time or space,
- 49:35Speaker 1: no separation or anything. I got love for Damon Dash
- 49:38Speaker 1: the same way as I did before. I don't know
- 49:41Speaker 1: if we can be around each other and that in
- 49:43Speaker 1: that way because times are changed. You know, he may
- 49:46Speaker 1: be a totally different person. I know I'm a different
- 49:48Speaker 1: person um, but nothing can erase that error and the
- 49:51Speaker 1: things that we you know, those times, those memories and
- 49:54Speaker 1: those fights that we had, you know, to get Rockefeller
- 49:57Speaker 1: where it was. It just is what it is. Nothing's
- 49:59Speaker 1: gonna change. You know, There'll be some you know, minor
- 50:02Speaker 1: things in the middle that are getting away, but those
- 50:05Speaker 1: things go away, and then the relationship remains and those
- 50:08Speaker 1: memories remain. That's we did something great. We built something
- 50:11Speaker 1: that's gonna be here forever. That it's gonna be talked
- 50:14Speaker 1: about forever. They will always be you know, loved it.
- 50:18Speaker 1: What was your worst son? He at Rockefeller? The worst
- 50:20Speaker 1: person just didn't a middle fellow. I'm sorry. Now I
- 50:24Speaker 1: want to say Meal album. You should listen to it.
- 50:27Speaker 1: Wasn't that good? It was good man, you had a
- 50:29Speaker 1: reggae song as well. Yeah, it was you really responsible
- 50:34Speaker 1: for that. Let more, I'm not gonna put nobody on
- 50:38Speaker 1: that one. I didn't seem like, oh take that. I
- 50:40Speaker 1: didn't see it like that one for the team, the
- 50:43Speaker 1: dirty sign and didn't seem like, oh yeah, I'm gonna
- 50:45Speaker 1: take that. I'm gonna take all that for the team.
- 50:48Speaker 1: What was the worst talking Uh, let me think about that,
- 50:57Speaker 1: and what was the artist you passed upon that you
- 50:59Speaker 1: could have had that you signed And I don't know
- 51:01Speaker 1: if we passed on anyone that was that turned out
- 51:03Speaker 1: to be great? Yeah, true that though I don't know
- 51:08Speaker 1: if we passed on anybody that could have that was
- 51:10Speaker 1: great because we signed everybody that every Oh my god,
- 51:19Speaker 1: that's not even like a real thing. But it's funny
- 51:23Speaker 1: when when you look at the game and you know,
- 51:25Speaker 1: you look at where you're at now and you look
- 51:27Speaker 1: at the pits you came up in the nineties, did
- 51:29Speaker 1: you say to yourself, I knew I was gonna be
- 51:31Speaker 1: here and I knew those guys were gonna be there.
- 51:32Speaker 1: And I'm asking you that because I want to know
- 51:34Speaker 1: what you think of the game now, and who's gonna
- 51:35Speaker 1: be here ten years from now? Oh yeah, because I
- 51:38Speaker 1: wanted to be here, you know, And I saw a
- 51:40Speaker 1: lot of people let opportunities go. So I was like,
- 51:43Speaker 1: oh that then he's not gonna be around. Why why
- 51:45Speaker 1: aren't you doing this? If I had that, I'll be
- 51:47Speaker 1: doing this. And I think about it in strategic moves,
- 51:50Speaker 1: you know. I remember one time walking in the studio
- 51:53Speaker 1: Bleek Beans. Everybody was in there and I was like, man,
- 51:55Speaker 1: I'm telling you, man, y'all got a chance right now,
- 51:57Speaker 1: just flooded put out a lot of music because fifty
- 52:00Speaker 1: cent is coming. Four months later in the club hitting
- 52:03Speaker 1: it was over, but it was just like, okay, now
- 52:05Speaker 1: everybody got to sit on the sidelines and wait and
- 52:07Speaker 1: wait this tight wave out. So like just seeing things
- 52:10Speaker 1: like that. I remember when you were to sign Wayne
- 52:12Speaker 1: before Wayne, Yeah it took off. Yeah, so you have
- 52:16Speaker 1: that kind of vision. So who do you see now
- 52:17Speaker 1: that's gonna be good ten years from them? I mean
- 52:20Speaker 1: obviously Jay cole Um, Drake, absolutely, Uh, Kendrick as well.
- 52:27Speaker 1: I think just On he's talented, very talented, but just
- 52:30Speaker 1: on on share will and wanting it, while AI is
- 52:34Speaker 1: gonna be here as well. And I don't want to stretch.
- 52:37Speaker 1: I'm sure other people, but you know, I just want
- 52:40Speaker 1: you know, now you mentioned a little Wayne with I
- 52:42Speaker 1: know that you guys were this closest sign of way
- 52:44Speaker 1: what happened with that deal, because I mean it got
- 52:45Speaker 1: to I mean, Wayne was damn they saying he was
- 52:48Speaker 1: Rockefeller and then it just went left. The truth is
- 52:51Speaker 1: that it's the first time I was told this truth.
- 52:53Speaker 1: I had a meeting with Wayne. You know, I had
- 52:55Speaker 1: a relationship with Baby, so you know, I used to
- 52:58Speaker 1: go to New Orleans. I would hang out with Hi. Yeah,
- 53:00Speaker 1: me and the purple little um whatever that car was
- 53:02Speaker 1: membe him purple with little cars and proudly going down
- 53:05Speaker 1: the street. You know, no top people wanted trying to
- 53:08Speaker 1: jump in the car. I felt it was only right
- 53:11Speaker 1: to call him, you know, I called them out of respect,
- 53:14Speaker 1: like yo, I was talking to Wayne or just letting
- 53:17Speaker 1: you know, boom boom boom. After that, I think we
- 53:20Speaker 1: received a letter at our office for like tortuous interference
- 53:24Speaker 1: Lloyd and I was like whoa sports, It was like
- 53:27Speaker 1: whoa And it just all went from there. But you know,
- 53:31Speaker 1: I think I would rather lose that situation than do
- 53:34Speaker 1: the right thing than the opposite. You know, I could
- 53:36Speaker 1: I think I could have just I couldn't. I could
- 53:38Speaker 1: have signed him. I could have signed him and then
- 53:41Speaker 1: told him after. But you know I did the right thing.
- 53:43Speaker 1: And uh, I'm cool with that decision. How close were
- 53:45Speaker 1: you really spinking way when he threw that shot at
- 53:48Speaker 1: the wife? No, I was. It was all right, it's
- 53:50Speaker 1: it's it's part of the sport in the competition. I didn't.
- 53:53Speaker 1: I didn't take it serious. I didn't view it as
- 53:55Speaker 1: a threat. I thought it was just a flip of
- 53:57Speaker 1: a line that I said because I said, uh, ain't
- 54:00Speaker 1: got my wifee money. I wasn't really speaking to him.
- 54:04Speaker 1: But he's holding the flag. So he did the right
- 54:06Speaker 1: thing for his camp. And uh, but I didn't take
- 54:08Speaker 1: it as a real threat. I took it as a
- 54:10Speaker 1: flip of a line. Another hood question, young Chris, your
- 54:13Speaker 1: former artists, how much did he influence you because a
- 54:15Speaker 1: lot of people say you took his style and he
- 54:18Speaker 1: took yours. Well, you know, with all due respect to Chris,
- 54:21Speaker 1: he was an amazing artist. You know, he did amazing things.
- 54:24Speaker 1: But you know, the music is there. You know, I
- 54:27Speaker 1: made records before Chris and after him. You know, so
- 54:31Speaker 1: I don't. I don't even I don't even know how
- 54:33Speaker 1: to answer that. It's like the weirdest thing in the
- 54:36Speaker 1: world to me, Like you've heard this off before the
- 54:39Speaker 1: no no, no, no, no no, I never heard that.
- 54:47Speaker 1: It's weird to me. It's like I get pulled in
- 54:49Speaker 1: the office by the pet. Why did you ask Jay that?
- 54:51Speaker 1: I'm like just being on the internet for years now,
- 54:53Speaker 1: is there any rumor that you've ever heard that made
- 54:55Speaker 1: you be like, all right, this is weird all the time? Oh? Yeah,
- 54:59Speaker 1: we one you want to start with when they say
- 55:02Speaker 1: that Beyonce they didn't really have the baby. That's that,
- 55:05Speaker 1: you know, that's a good one. That's probably the most
- 55:08Speaker 1: ridiculous thing I've ever heard. And the fact that people
- 55:10Speaker 1: would really like running with that and running up with
- 55:12Speaker 1: it and have follow up story because at first I
- 55:15Speaker 1: thought I thought it was a you know, one of
- 55:17Speaker 1: those get pressed things like, you know, like, let's run
- 55:20Speaker 1: with this for press, And I was slowly like, oh,
- 55:23Speaker 1: y'all believe this, right, it's not going so far like,
- 55:26Speaker 1: oh y'all, y'all really believed this, And it's that and
- 55:30Speaker 1: that's really kind of that's messed up because like the
- 55:32Speaker 1: time where you're supposed to be most joyous, you got
- 55:34Speaker 1: life and you you know, and the whole thing you're
- 55:37Speaker 1: supposed to be a joyous time. For you to have
- 55:38Speaker 1: to like deal with that, whether you care about it
- 55:41Speaker 1: or not, is annoying and you shouldn't have to really
- 55:44Speaker 1: deal with that as a human being. But you know,
- 55:46Speaker 1: that's the position that we're in. You know, you don't
- 55:48Speaker 1: matter how many times you say that Beyonce is really pregnant,
- 55:53Speaker 1: people gonna believe what they want to believe anyway. So
- 55:56Speaker 1: I mean, why I waste my time? And sometimes you
- 55:58Speaker 1: respond to something that brings a way more attention to
- 55:59Speaker 1: it too, that too, and it's just yeah, it goes
- 56:02Speaker 1: into another space. You know, I got a great life.
- 56:05Speaker 1: You know, whatever comes with it, even ridiculous room is
- 56:08Speaker 1: about anything. It's nothing, it's nothing. It's nothing compared to
- 56:12Speaker 1: what you know, where I've been. Do you ever have
- 56:14Speaker 1: that conversation with you like, yeah, it's just the papa
- 56:16Speaker 1: roxy that's not a real problem. Yeah, all the time. Okay,
- 56:22Speaker 1: when you see him hit his head on that stop side,
- 56:24Speaker 1: did you laugh, I'm just cars, did you laugh? See it?
- 56:27Speaker 1: I chuckle. All right, when you said getting chased outside
- 56:30Speaker 1: the building, did you laugh? That was a pretty fund
- 56:32Speaker 1: that was laughed really hard. You got the other video,
- 56:35Speaker 1: it's another video. The one thing I liked about it.
- 56:37Speaker 1: I mean, because you can't help that if some fight
- 56:40Speaker 1: just run up on you and knock you inside your head,
- 56:41Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Just I'm shocked starting. I'm like, yeah,
- 56:44Speaker 1: I know that is what it is. That could happen
- 56:46Speaker 1: to anybody. The way you put saw it coming. He
- 56:49Speaker 1: seen that was a good That was the thing I saw.
- 56:52Speaker 1: I was like, okay, that was you know, little nuances
- 56:55Speaker 1: of your personality. You saw it. You knew that thing
- 56:57Speaker 1: was coming. It was you know what gave it a
- 56:59Speaker 1: weight off the camera? Yeah? World Star Era like, nothing's good.
- 57:03Speaker 1: It's gonna come to this situation, right, I'm getting out
- 57:06Speaker 1: of here. I'm not letting. He's gotten playing go through
- 57:11Speaker 1: ladies and gentleman jay Z time you get un you are,
- 57:28Speaker 1: I'm gonna fat and all that around your They want
- 57:31Speaker 1: this man to throwden blowers. Man, they're waiting for Charlemagne
- 57:33Speaker 1: to top these blows. Let's go has to make a judgment.
- 57:36Speaker 1: Who was gonna be on the donkey of the day.
- 57:38Speaker 1: They chose you to breakfast club. Bitch you who's donkey
- 57:42Speaker 1: the day to day? Yes, donkey of the day close
- 57:44Speaker 1: the New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Breeze. Yeah, the mayonnaise
- 57:48Speaker 1: is very, very heavy on this sandwich. Okay. I've been
- 57:52Speaker 1: having a lot of conversations with my white friends this week.
- 57:55Speaker 1: They all want to know what to say, how to
- 57:56Speaker 1: say it in regards to not only the death for
- 57:59Speaker 1: George Floyd, but about their place on this planet in general.
- 58:02Speaker 1: You know, the whole white, privileged, white supremacist conversation. And see, sadly,
- 58:07Speaker 1: there's not a white person in America who can say
- 58:09Speaker 1: that at some point someone in their family treat someone
- 58:12Speaker 1: and someone in their bloodline, their ancestors were part of
- 58:16Speaker 1: the problem. Okay, the problem being white supremacy. It is
- 58:18Speaker 1: what it is. People, nothing to be ashamed of, nothing
- 58:20Speaker 1: to be embarrassed about, no matter how history books attempt
- 58:23Speaker 1: to sanitize it, no matter how sweet they try to
- 58:26Speaker 1: make it sound. All America was not built on Christian values. Okay,
- 58:30Speaker 1: like they try to sell it, all right, please stop, Okay,
- 58:32Speaker 1: America was built on the back of slavery and racism.
- 58:35Speaker 1: That's it, point blank period. Pooh all right. Slavery was
- 58:38Speaker 1: America's first big business. This country was founded by old
- 58:41Speaker 1: white men who were not attempted to make this country
- 58:43Speaker 1: all inclusive for everyone, especially black people. Okay, we were property,
- 58:47Speaker 1: like actual literal property. That's why we got to constantly
- 58:50Speaker 1: tell people black lives matter, because in the Constitution it
- 58:53Speaker 1: says black people were three fifths of a person, the
- 58:55Speaker 1: three fists rule. That's why we were treated its property.
- 59:00Speaker 1: So that's why we got to constantly remind you, no,
- 59:01Speaker 1: I am actually a life, not a piece of property.
- 59:03Speaker 1: And to this day some still look at us as
- 59:07Speaker 1: as property. Okay, So yes, my white allies, that's the
- 59:09Speaker 1: harsh truth. If you are ready and willing to start
- 59:11Speaker 1: from that place, then we can figure out how to
- 59:13Speaker 1: dismantle this mechanism called white supremacy. Now, in regards to
- 59:17Speaker 1: speaking out, you shouldn't have to ask me how to
- 59:19Speaker 1: speak out for another human in regard to their pain. Okay,
- 59:23Speaker 1: if you are a spiritually conscious person in any way,
- 59:26Speaker 1: if you are just a human being with empathy, when
- 59:29Speaker 1: you saw that video at George Floyd, you should have
- 59:31Speaker 1: felt the way and whatever you felt express it. Okay,
- 59:35Speaker 1: you don't need a black person's permission for that. Okay,
- 59:38Speaker 1: this is a matter, this is a matter of race,
- 59:40Speaker 1: but it's also just a matter of being human. So
- 59:42Speaker 1: if you want to do, if you want to know
- 59:43Speaker 1: what to do, it's simple, just stand up for other humans. Sadly,
- 59:48Speaker 1: some people just don't get it. I'm not even mad
- 59:50Speaker 1: at them for not getting it, because we all live
- 59:52Speaker 1: in our individual bubbles, and when you are a white male,
- 59:55Speaker 1: you definitely live in a bubble because this system, for
- 59:58Speaker 1: the most part, works perfectly for you. Okay, this white
- 1:00:01Speaker 1: supremacist system, whether you are prejudice, bigoted, racist or not,
- 1:00:05Speaker 1: works great for most white males because it was designed
- 1:00:08Speaker 1: by white males, so it was always going to be
- 1:00:10Speaker 1: built in advantages, which is why when someone like Drew
- 1:00:13Speaker 1: Brees doesn't get it, it doesn't surprise me at all.
- 1:00:16Speaker 1: See Drew Brees was giving an interview with Yahoo Finance.
- 1:00:19Speaker 1: During the interview, he was asked his thoughts on the
- 1:00:21Speaker 1: subject of players potentially kneeling during the national anthem for
- 1:00:25Speaker 1: the twenty twenty season. Let's hear it. I will never
- 1:00:28Speaker 1: agree with anybody disrespecting the flag of the United States
- 1:00:31Speaker 1: of America. Let me just tell you what I feel
- 1:00:34Speaker 1: when the national anthem is played, and when I look
- 1:00:37Speaker 1: at the flag of the United States, I envisioned my
- 1:00:40Speaker 1: two grandfathers who fought for this country during World War Two,
- 1:00:44Speaker 1: And in many cases, it brings me to tears thinking
- 1:00:47Speaker 1: about all that has been sacrificed, not just those in
- 1:00:50Speaker 1: the military, but for that matter, those throughout the civil
- 1:00:53Speaker 1: rights movements of the sixties and everyone and all that
- 1:00:57Speaker 1: has been endured by so many people up until this point.
- 1:01:00Speaker 1: And is everything right with our country right now? No?
- 1:01:03Speaker 1: But I think what you do by standing there and
- 1:01:05Speaker 1: showing respect to the flag with your hand over your heart,
- 1:01:08Speaker 1: is it shows unity. We can all do better, and
- 1:01:11Speaker 1: then we are all part of the solution. Flag on
- 1:01:13Speaker 1: the play. Violation is the current illegal use of white privilege.
- 1:01:18Speaker 1: Drew Brees is marginalizing what black people are experiencing in
- 1:01:21Speaker 1: this country because he's seeing the world through the lens
- 1:01:24Speaker 1: of the oppressor, not the oppressed. I am happy that
- 1:01:27Speaker 1: when Drew Brees sees the flag of the United States
- 1:01:29Speaker 1: of America and his grandfathers who fought for this country
- 1:01:32Speaker 1: in World War Two, I'm glad he sheds a couple
- 1:01:34Speaker 1: of tiers. That's beautiful, But Drew Brees, black people fought
- 1:01:37Speaker 1: in World War Two. But imagine fighting for a country
- 1:01:40Speaker 1: that at that point didn't even give you the same
- 1:01:42Speaker 1: civil liberties that it gave your grandparents. Drew Brees, do
- 1:01:45Speaker 1: you know in the US into World War Two, Jim
- 1:01:47Speaker 1: Crow's segregation had inted every single aspect of American society.
- 1:01:51Speaker 1: Do you know that there were several segregated units in
- 1:01:55Speaker 1: the military during World War Two? So even though we're
- 1:01:57Speaker 1: all supposed to have a common enemy in a war,
- 1:02:00Speaker 1: this country still had us divided, Okay, still looked at
- 1:02:03Speaker 1: US as an enemy. This is why so many black
- 1:02:06Speaker 1: folks have a problem with patriotism. How can we salute
- 1:02:08Speaker 1: a country that historically enslaved us, marginalized us, and continues
- 1:02:12Speaker 1: to brutalize us. Seet Drew Brees is a white privileged male.
- 1:02:16Speaker 1: That's how he sees America. Okay, it's all Roses. He's
- 1:02:20Speaker 1: living his life like it's colden. Okay, This white supremacist
- 1:02:23Speaker 1: system works well for him because it's supposed to. I
- 1:02:26Speaker 1: am not arguing with any white person about why people
- 1:02:29Speaker 1: choose to take a knee in regards to police brutality.
- 1:02:32Speaker 1: There's nothing to debate. Okay, if you don't get it
- 1:02:35Speaker 1: by now, you don't want to get it. And if
- 1:02:37Speaker 1: you're committed to misunderstanding the situation, whatever. Now I had
- 1:02:41Speaker 1: a convo. I did have a convo with my good
- 1:02:43Speaker 1: brother Michael Eric Dison this weekend. Drop on a clue
- 1:02:45Speaker 1: bombs from Michael Eric Dison. He was explaining to me
- 1:02:49Speaker 1: why you do have to teach white people, because whether
- 1:02:52Speaker 1: you know it or not, you are unintentionally teaching them,
- 1:02:56Speaker 1: so you might as well be intentional about teaching them.
- 1:03:00Speaker 1: So I keep that in mind at times like this,
- 1:03:03Speaker 1: and I defer to one of our greatest teachers, kill
- 1:03:05Speaker 1: the Mike. He was on with Jaalen and Jacobe and
- 1:03:09Speaker 1: he had some lessons for Drew Brees. Let's hear it.
- 1:03:12Speaker 1: I would like to know what he considers disrespect because
- 1:03:16Speaker 1: and when I travel and we perform in Germany, I
- 1:03:19Speaker 1: never see a Nazi flag because Nazis are a part
- 1:03:22Speaker 1: of history that Germany understands was a cancer and corrupt
- 1:03:25Speaker 1: and they've grinded themselves up. Drew Blees plays in the
- 1:03:28Speaker 1: Deep South. As we traveled through the South, we see
- 1:03:31Speaker 1: the Confederate flag everywhere to bounds. So if you're gonna
- 1:03:34Speaker 1: tell me about flagging disrespecting the American flag, the fact
- 1:03:38Speaker 1: that you live in a region that they still find
- 1:03:40Speaker 1: a rebel flag in the Confederate flag and you don't
- 1:03:42Speaker 1: addamly speak against that on a regular basis just tells
- 1:03:45Speaker 1: me that you're protecting the lay of life or what
- 1:03:48Speaker 1: you think is right. The American flag stands with the
- 1:03:50Speaker 1: First Amendment and the ability to say what you feel
- 1:03:54Speaker 1: about situations. Now you bare the blunt of that. You
- 1:03:56Speaker 1: may get black ball out in the NFL, but you
- 1:03:59Speaker 1: have the right too. So if you support and you
- 1:04:01Speaker 1: don't want to see the American flag disrespected, don't look
- 1:04:04Speaker 1: at it on buttweiser shorts, at picnics, don't look at
- 1:04:07Speaker 1: it edit a bikini shops and Playboy. Don't look at
- 1:04:10Speaker 1: it on your favorite album covers because you think that
- 1:04:13Speaker 1: rock band is rocking for you. Be all the way
- 1:04:16Speaker 1: with it. You're an intelligent football player. But that was
- 1:04:18Speaker 1: an incredibly stupid thing to stay. But I'm not going
- 1:04:21Speaker 1: to be so burdened with the religion that has become
- 1:04:23Speaker 1: American news and nationalism that I could get that the
- 1:04:25Speaker 1: flag represents the United States Constitution, and the United States
- 1:04:29Speaker 1: Constitution was written by a bunch of people who chose
- 1:04:31Speaker 1: to protest violently in order to have a frame. So
- 1:04:35Speaker 1: what you interpreted disrespect probably is the most patriotic thing
- 1:04:39Speaker 1: happening today. Just something to think about, something to think about,
- 1:04:43Speaker 1: Drew Brees. If I had a lesson for Drew Brees,
- 1:04:46Speaker 1: because I'm nowhere near his eloquent, is killing Mike. But
- 1:04:49Speaker 1: if I had a lesson for Drew Brees, it would
- 1:04:51Speaker 1: be a simple homework assignment. And it's this. If you
- 1:04:53Speaker 1: don't understand why players neil, if you don't understand why
- 1:04:57Speaker 1: players take a knee, then go watch the video of
- 1:05:00Speaker 1: that white devil cop kneeling taking a knee on George
- 1:05:04Speaker 1: Floyd's neck for eight minutes and forty six seconds. If
- 1:05:07Speaker 1: you don't get it after that, well you might just
- 1:05:10Speaker 1: need you to shut the f up forever on all
- 1:05:12Speaker 1: issues regarding race in this country and sit the rest
- 1:05:15Speaker 1: of this season called life out. Please let Chelsea handle
- 1:05:19Speaker 1: give Drew Brees the biggest he huh hee haw hee haw.
- 1:05:23Speaker 1: That is way too much Dan mann is. I wonder
- 1:05:25Speaker 1: if he's going to address these statements now he has to.
- 1:05:29Speaker 1: I'm Yeah, I'm sure that he'll have an enlightening moment
- 1:05:32Speaker 1: and say that. You know, he was taught so much
- 1:05:35Speaker 1: in the past twenty four hours. Yeah, I'm sure he will.
- 1:05:38Speaker 1: What's he kneeled before? Yeah? I don't know if he
- 1:05:41Speaker 1: was just doing that to be a good teammate or
- 1:05:42Speaker 1: he actually knew what was going on. Who knows? All right, Well,
- 1:05:46Speaker 1: thank you for that, Donkey. Today the Breakfast Club checking
- 1:05:53Speaker 1: out the world's most dangerous morning shows in the building.

- 1:06:03Speaker 1: men to do? Shit? Your people's first go he wants
- 1:06:06Speaker 1: to be noticed. I heard the dog and under there. Yeah,
- 1:06:08Speaker 1: and I got my og Daniel to my left and
- 1:06:11Speaker 1: to my right, I got murder Move. It's the murder
- 1:06:13Speaker 1: Move affiliation. I know he's in the movie, but it's
- 1:06:15Speaker 1: what y'all doing. The overall affiliation is the hallm thing.
- 1:06:20Speaker 1: You talk about hall them a lot from a long time.
- 1:06:22Speaker 1: How did you meet up with jay Z who was
- 1:06:24Speaker 1: from Brooklyn? Because like you, guys, tight, you're really still
- 1:06:29Speaker 1: curious about the jack. Absolutely, you don't know the Stormy's curious. No,
- 1:06:31Speaker 1: we want you to tell the story. Let me ask
- 1:06:32Speaker 1: you a question. No, this is not you're not asking
- 1:06:35Speaker 1: you're asking you. People want to know that. Let me
- 1:06:38Speaker 1: can I ask you a questions? Have you never? Have
- 1:06:40Speaker 1: you never asked this question from me before about Jaz
- 1:06:43Speaker 1: But I was on a smaller scale. It wasn't as
- 1:06:44Speaker 1: big as the question. Do you think everybody knows that question?
- 1:06:48Speaker 1: I don't think everybody knows that answer? Can you know
- 1:06:50Speaker 1: the answer? Yeah? No, you tell us there to tell
- 1:06:52Speaker 1: us to answer how you're No, it's it's different because
- 1:06:54Speaker 1: we're on a different scale. This is the hall queens thing,
- 1:06:57Speaker 1: like all queens don't get along. Ask your question. Okay,
- 1:07:01Speaker 1: let's be many. Right. If somebody asked you the same
- 1:07:03Speaker 1: question twenty five times, maybe twenty five hundred times, do
- 1:07:07Speaker 1: you still want to talk about the same thing? Yes
- 1:07:09Speaker 1: and no. No. So that's just me being human. So
- 1:07:12Speaker 1: I don't care what platform were. I'm sick of talking
- 1:07:14Speaker 1: about it. Let's talk about something else. But that question.
- 1:07:17Speaker 1: I just told you the next question. No more jay
- 1:07:20Speaker 1: Z questions. I answered them more. I want to talk
- 1:07:22Speaker 1: about you. You say your old gs, you talk about
- 1:07:24Speaker 1: your counsel like I always wondered who was your counsel,
- 1:07:26Speaker 1: Like when you would scream one other executives back in
- 1:07:28Speaker 1: the day, Like, were those the guys you would go
- 1:07:31Speaker 1: to and say, Yo, was I wrong for that screaming?
- 1:07:33Speaker 1: On exact Yeah, they weren't in my life at the time,
- 1:07:35Speaker 1: but I have my crew and I had the people.
- 1:07:38Speaker 1: See the reason why I would screaming is because it
- 1:07:40Speaker 1: would be for me not putting my hands on them.
- 1:07:42Speaker 1: See the way I was taught, when you putting up
- 1:07:44Speaker 1: money and someone doesn't do what you say or they
- 1:07:46Speaker 1: owe you money, if you don't put your hands on them,
- 1:07:48Speaker 1: then you can't be outside anymore. So you have to
- 1:07:50Speaker 1: make examples out of people. So the yelling and the
- 1:07:53Speaker 1: snapping and laughing at people was I was taught to
- 1:07:56Speaker 1: hurt people. But instead I was also taught a smarter
- 1:07:58Speaker 1: way to get it. People ask one of the things
- 1:08:00Speaker 1: that Daniel taught me. So like it would be the
- 1:08:02Speaker 1: people that be around and it would be straight, real tough,
- 1:08:06Speaker 1: but I could just snap one them. We would snap
- 1:08:08Speaker 1: all day. Instead of me having to kill these with guns,
- 1:08:11Speaker 1: I killed them with jokes, you know. But when it
- 1:08:13Speaker 1: came down to it, my knuckle games proper. You know,
- 1:08:16Speaker 1: I'm gonna go out all out for what I believe in.
- 1:08:18Speaker 1: But I'd rather laugh at you than't shoot you. I'd
- 1:08:20Speaker 1: rather talk to you disrespectfully, don't have to punch you
- 1:08:23Speaker 1: in your mouth for disrespecting me. That's what I was taught.
- 1:08:26Speaker 1: So that's that's why I was able to maneuver. So
- 1:08:28Speaker 1: instead of going to get my gun, I was able
- 1:08:30Speaker 1: to use my logic. Everything is simple. Man, you asked
- 1:08:33Speaker 1: me a question twenty five times just because you want
- 1:08:35Speaker 1: everyone else to know. I don't care. I'm sick of
- 1:08:38Speaker 1: answering that question. So I want to talk about another
- 1:08:40Speaker 1: man all day. I want to talk about other things. Period.
- 1:08:42Speaker 1: Men don't want to talk about other men. It bugs
- 1:08:44Speaker 1: me out. Why are men so curious about other men?
- 1:08:47Speaker 1: That makes no sense. I'm never worried about other men
- 1:08:49Speaker 1: that much. Now let me ask you, as a woman,
- 1:08:52Speaker 1: why are men so worried about other men and how
- 1:08:54Speaker 1: much money they got and all the other men and stuff? Why? Well,
- 1:08:56Speaker 1: I think part of it is social media. You know
- 1:08:59Speaker 1: what happened I gotta do. We put up a picture
- 1:09:01Speaker 1: like Dah was here, and a bunch of people would
- 1:09:03Speaker 1: be like, ask him this, ask him this and some
- 1:09:06Speaker 1: money thing. It is true that people ask the same
- 1:09:08Speaker 1: questions because some people might not have heard the answer.
- 1:09:10Speaker 1: Be one. Everybody heard this answer. No, I will say
- 1:09:13Speaker 1: that ibody knows why history with Jay I already said, listen,
- 1:09:17Speaker 1: you say something. Y'all saw my other interview. Already told
- 1:09:20Speaker 1: you the reasons why I don't want to talk about
- 1:09:22Speaker 1: that man. You got one of them asking right now.
- 1:09:24Speaker 1: I told you why get all for that man? Paul?
- 1:09:27Speaker 1: You asked that man. Y'all never asked that man no questions?
- 1:09:31Speaker 1: What do you answer? Nothing gonna change the way I
- 1:09:33Speaker 1: feel about Damon, you know, no matter not no time
- 1:09:36Speaker 1: or space, no separation or anything. I got love for
- 1:09:39Speaker 1: Damon Dash the same way as I did before. I
- 1:09:41Speaker 1: don't know if we can be around each other in
- 1:09:43Speaker 1: that in that way because times have changed, but nothing
- 1:09:46Speaker 1: can erase that error and those times and those memories
- 1:09:49Speaker 1: and those fights that we had to get Rockefeller with
- 1:09:52Speaker 1: was they will always be loved there. I just don't
- 1:09:55Speaker 1: want to talk about those days. That's the teen years
- 1:09:57Speaker 1: ago that still y'all make money. No, I agree with Rayson,
- 1:09:59Speaker 1: Why listen if y'all still making money off for old substance. Now,
- 1:10:03Speaker 1: how are you gonna grow? I agree with that, but
- 1:10:04Speaker 1: we're still talking about Jay. I haven't even seen Jay,
- 1:10:06Speaker 1: but two times in fifteen years were my thing? Though
- 1:10:08Speaker 1: that you did add something new to the conversation when
- 1:10:10Speaker 1: you said you brought up the stuff about Desert Ray.
- 1:10:12Speaker 1: I didn't bring up nothing. I didn't saying a name.
- 1:10:13Speaker 1: I said, look, you're still bringing it up. You got
- 1:10:16Speaker 1: the hat on. I told you I don't want to
- 1:10:17Speaker 1: talk about it, So I don't want to talk about
- 1:10:19Speaker 1: it no more. You understand, you don't understand what was
- 1:10:22Speaker 1: out there. People go to jail, people get killed for
- 1:10:24Speaker 1: this kind of stuff. I don't play these these ghetto games,
- 1:10:27Speaker 1: but do this bubble gum don't? I told you once
- 1:10:30Speaker 1: you Nick has certain friends. We don't even talk about
- 1:10:32Speaker 1: them no more where I'm from. So if you think
- 1:10:34Speaker 1: I'm gonna get on the camera keep talking about this thing,
- 1:10:36Speaker 1: I don't know what's going on over there. You got
- 1:10:37Speaker 1: the hat on, you asked him, you calling out names?
- 1:10:40Speaker 1: Now you know what that represent. You did talk about.
- 1:10:43Speaker 1: I would say you were the bad guy at one time.
- 1:10:45Speaker 1: That was your job. Not the reason I'm asking. I
- 1:10:46Speaker 1: wasn't a bad guy I was a good guy. I
- 1:10:48Speaker 1: was a bad guy to the bad people. Right, I'm
- 1:10:50Speaker 1: the good guy to the good guys, trustomers. I'm always
- 1:10:53Speaker 1: gonna be a bad guy to somebody. Listen. Listen, guy,
- 1:10:55Speaker 1: if I let me ask you a question, if I
- 1:10:57Speaker 1: beat the shit out of you and you, dude, you
- 1:10:59Speaker 1: just something, but in your mind, I you up. Am
- 1:11:02Speaker 1: I a bad guy if I did something bad? No
- 1:11:04Speaker 1: to that person that got his ass whipped. I am
- 1:11:06Speaker 1: a bad guy to the person that got his ass
- 1:11:07Speaker 1: with But that's what I'm saying. So I'm looking to
- 1:11:10Speaker 1: look I'm walking around whipping ass. Somebody's gonna say I'm
- 1:11:13Speaker 1: a bad guy, right, absolutely, paulse you know what I'm saying.
- 1:11:16Speaker 1: I didn't say who's anyway, So I'm saying I'm gonna
- 1:11:24Speaker 1: be a bad guy. That's all good guy Like Batman.
- 1:11:26Speaker 1: They said he was a bad guy, but he was
- 1:11:27Speaker 1: a superhero. If you at war, you're the bad guy
- 1:11:30Speaker 1: the people you're fighting. Whoever looks at me as a
- 1:11:32Speaker 1: bad guy, they're on the wrong end. They're on the
- 1:11:34Speaker 1: wrong team. You see what I do When I got
- 1:11:36Speaker 1: the rock pause, I give it the platform to my
- 1:11:38Speaker 1: friends and I always have while I haven't been around
- 1:11:41Speaker 1: a lot of people got fat, but all my friends
- 1:11:44Speaker 1: are starving, or the people that I left out there,
- 1:11:47Speaker 1: everyone's starving. A couple of people are fat. We're taking
- 1:11:50Speaker 1: it back so everybody could eat. Are there times in
- 1:11:52Speaker 1: business you feel like you haven't been honorable? And there?
- 1:11:54Speaker 1: Never can mean people, because never, I've never not been
- 1:11:59Speaker 1: honorable and business. Every time I hear me not being
- 1:12:01Speaker 1: a businesses from a radio show. When men talk about men,
- 1:12:06Speaker 1: it's never been from that man telling me in my
- 1:12:08Speaker 1: face he has issue. It's not a claim. It's never
- 1:12:11Speaker 1: been a social media How can a man say social
- 1:12:14Speaker 1: media with a strange face? Men don't listen to social media.
- 1:12:17Speaker 1: That's no, men don't listen to social media. A real
- 1:12:20Speaker 1: man doesn't listen to a rumor. That's why let me
- 1:12:23Speaker 1: ask a questions. What about real calm, realm as real com.
- 1:12:26Speaker 1: Does a real man listen to what another man says
- 1:12:29Speaker 1: about another man? Yes? Or no? I mean you listen
- 1:12:32Speaker 1: something you to take it right? You have no questions
- 1:12:34Speaker 1: to ask me. I don't give a but this is
- 1:12:36Speaker 1: this is the radio business. I don't give a about
- 1:12:39Speaker 1: the radio business. An art I don't give an doesn't
- 1:12:44Speaker 1: want to do. That's not what he wants to do.
- 1:12:46Speaker 1: But what I'm saying money that people know it don't
- 1:12:50Speaker 1: be over no money? How much money? What's money to you?
- 1:12:53Speaker 1: That's all relative to me? Yeah, I mean it's all relative.
- 1:12:55Speaker 1: But it's one hundred thousand dollars money. It's money. Not
- 1:12:58Speaker 1: to me. It is money, it's not to me, it's relative.
- 1:13:00Speaker 1: I can't with one hundred thousand dollars. My bills are
- 1:13:02Speaker 1: way more than a hundred thousand dollars. I forget all
- 1:13:04Speaker 1: that money talking. I'm not I don't asking you a question. No,
- 1:13:06Speaker 1: I'm trying to prove a point here so you can
- 1:13:07Speaker 1: have a clarity of what you're should be worried about.
- 1:13:09Speaker 1: What's worth For real, man talking about his business on
- 1:13:12Speaker 1: the radio between another man, what's worth that? No? None,
- 1:13:15Speaker 1: I don't need the money exactly. It's not exactly. So
- 1:13:17Speaker 1: when a man comes on the radio and talks about
- 1:13:19Speaker 1: money and they don't talk to about me, I know
- 1:13:21Speaker 1: that's not the issue because if it was really about money,
- 1:13:24Speaker 1: would have called me. You wouldn't have called you. I mean,
- 1:13:26Speaker 1: he know, I'm not listening to you. I'm gonna listening
- 1:13:28Speaker 1: to you. Ask me questions about another man money. A
- 1:13:31Speaker 1: real man don't answer those questions. A real man don't
- 1:13:34Speaker 1: ask them. Let's talk about you. Do you feel like
- 1:13:36Speaker 1: you get your props as a mugul? Care I take
- 1:13:40Speaker 1: my props? Talk about props? I can't. Yeah, I do
- 1:13:43Speaker 1: get my propers. That I'm not a mgu I'm a
- 1:13:44Speaker 1: tycoon and I sell oil. Don't disrespect me and say
- 1:13:47Speaker 1: I do everything everybody else does, and I put up
- 1:13:49Speaker 1: my own money. All these so called moguls you're talking about,
- 1:13:51Speaker 1: you name one of them that put their own do up.
- 1:13:54Speaker 1: You boss. You're only the boss if you put up
- 1:13:56Speaker 1: your own money. If you don't put up your own money,
- 1:13:58Speaker 1: I don't care how much somebody gives you. You're nothing
- 1:14:00Speaker 1: but the supervisor. It's not yours. There's no money in
- 1:14:03Speaker 1: this world for someone to pay me. So they could
- 1:14:05Speaker 1: call me so I could call him a boss. That's
- 1:14:08Speaker 1: like calling somebody daddy. How can a man call another
- 1:14:10Speaker 1: man or that's my boss. We don't do that. I
- 1:14:13Speaker 1: mean everybody at some point that no harm. But like
- 1:14:17Speaker 1: somebody's boss. No, I'm not somebody's boss. When I was
- 1:14:20Speaker 1: in the street, some of them wasn't your boss. They
- 1:14:23Speaker 1: gave you an opportunity. Okay, they gave you some work,
- 1:14:26Speaker 1: You go make it and then you bring it back.
- 1:14:28Speaker 1: You can go buy your own work. You do whatever
- 1:14:30Speaker 1: you want. So why this can't be all work? This
- 1:14:32Speaker 1: corporate America? We could be you don't own it, were
- 1:14:35Speaker 1: telling you, I'm telling you what I'm telling you. Question.
- 1:14:38Speaker 1: Let me ask you a question. Listen, Can you give
- 1:14:39Speaker 1: it to your son? Tell you what my son? Whatever company?
- 1:14:42Speaker 1: I absolutely positively can How because I owned shares to
- 1:14:46Speaker 1: this company by them. Yes, what I'm saying is, can
- 1:14:49Speaker 1: your son is this yours? To give the whole company
- 1:14:51Speaker 1: to company? Exactly? It's not mine? But I stopped. Listen, Listen,
- 1:14:55Speaker 1: that's not my question. If your son needs a job here,
- 1:14:58Speaker 1: can you give it to him? No? No. If your
- 1:15:00Speaker 1: son needs to get some money out the bank from here,
- 1:15:02Speaker 1: some cash flow, can you get it? All? Right? You
- 1:15:04Speaker 1: don't own this, but I can think it's not yours.
- 1:15:08Speaker 1: I'm not gonna fight for something I don't own. Men
- 1:15:11Speaker 1: don't do that. I'm not gonna build somebody else's company
- 1:15:14Speaker 1: and then pick shares on my son. Could listen what
- 1:15:18Speaker 1: I'm saying. What about taking money from jail? Stop don't
- 1:15:22Speaker 1: say you're making my business and you don't know what
- 1:15:24Speaker 1: you're talking about. I take no money from death dam
- 1:15:26Speaker 1: what you talked to me? Take me they cut you know,
- 1:15:28Speaker 1: they didn't cut me a check. We had a formula
- 1:15:30Speaker 1: based on performance, and they calculated and we got paid
- 1:15:33Speaker 1: and never stop. That's not us, that's what we know. No,
- 1:15:36Speaker 1: we listen. We had Rockefeller. We put up our own
- 1:15:39Speaker 1: money from Rockefeller. Then we sold half of it. We
- 1:15:42Speaker 1: became partners, So that means no one gave us anything.
- 1:15:46Speaker 1: We were fifty fifty partners. We built something and sold it.
- 1:15:49Speaker 1: That doesn't mean you work for somebody. See they let
- 1:15:51Speaker 1: you believe that. So then what happened was based on
- 1:15:55Speaker 1: a formula. One of our formula is it was profit
- 1:15:58Speaker 1: times a certain numbers. Sof you make this much profit
- 1:16:01Speaker 1: time seven, that's how much your number is. Okay, Based
- 1:16:05Speaker 1: on that formula, they bought the rest. That's say, that's
- 1:16:08Speaker 1: not nobody giving me money. I didn't never work for them.
- 1:16:11Speaker 1: I put I put up way more money than def
- 1:16:13Speaker 1: Jam put up me. Biggs and Jay put way more
- 1:16:15Speaker 1: money up into deaf Jam. I mean, rather than too
- 1:16:18Speaker 1: Rockefeller than Jeff Jam. All they did was collect our money.
- 1:16:21Speaker 1: When we were with death dam they were brought by universal.
- 1:16:23Speaker 1: How are you gonna call it deaths? How you are there?
- 1:16:25Speaker 1: Or someone that's bought by someone could be someone's boss.
- 1:16:28Speaker 1: You have to understand what you're doing in business because
- 1:16:30Speaker 1: you gotta do it's best for your kids. Which best
- 1:16:32Speaker 1: for your kids is to put your money into something distress,
- 1:16:36Speaker 1: go through all of it. So when your child becomes
- 1:16:39Speaker 1: a man, he doesn't have to work for nobody didn't
- 1:16:42Speaker 1: pass it to him. Now you talk about so you're
- 1:16:44Speaker 1: gonna work twenty years in the business or fifteen years
- 1:16:47Speaker 1: in the business, every day, over and over again, and
- 1:16:50Speaker 1: your son can't work here whenever he feels like it.
- 1:16:52Speaker 1: You're clowning the mind saying if you all wait a second,
- 1:16:57Speaker 1: I don't need it. That's stupid. You should be breath
- 1:17:00Speaker 1: because I like to check. Wait time out, time time out,
- 1:17:05Speaker 1: time you're lying, I don't. Before you lose your control, Stacus,
- 1:17:11Speaker 1: listen to him, because why don't you listen to work
- 1:17:13Speaker 1: it for free? Who could work? Would you ever enjoy
- 1:17:15Speaker 1: being a slave? I'm not. It's not a slave. This
- 1:17:17Speaker 1: is what I enjoyed, slavery. Do you have to come
- 1:17:19Speaker 1: and work today. Do you have a choice you have
- 1:17:22Speaker 1: to ask somebody when you have to, Yes, you do,
- 1:17:24Speaker 1: I don't, Or you're fired. Can somebody tell you you fire?
- 1:17:27Speaker 1: You can somebody tell you fir Can another man say
- 1:17:31Speaker 1: you're fired? Absolutely? No one can tell me that, And
- 1:17:33Speaker 1: that's what that's pricelessly But I'm here because I don't care.
- 1:17:36Speaker 1: You enjoy having a man, but you can't let me
- 1:17:39Speaker 1: ask you a question, So you're being selfish. Do you
- 1:17:42Speaker 1: think your son enjoys you calling somebody else a boss?
- 1:17:45Speaker 1: Don't you think your son would rather wake up with
- 1:17:47Speaker 1: you and you could pick him up from school instead
- 1:17:49Speaker 1: of having to do a nine to five? Don't think yeah,
- 1:17:52Speaker 1: But don't you have to wake up at four in
- 1:17:54Speaker 1: the morning. Don't you think your son would love if
- 1:17:56Speaker 1: his name was up there, Dash or whatever your last
- 1:17:59Speaker 1: name is, instead of somebody else's. My pride is that
- 1:18:02Speaker 1: my children. But that's look what I'm doing right now.
- 1:18:04Speaker 1: Look at my son. I taught my son never to
- 1:18:07Speaker 1: have a boss. She's twenty three. He owns a restaurant,
- 1:18:10Speaker 1: he has cookedies, he has equity. He bust his ass
- 1:18:13Speaker 1: so he could pass it on to his son. If
- 1:18:15Speaker 1: that's not what you hustlings for? You're selfish. You keep saying, I,
- 1:18:19Speaker 1: I'm worried about my kids, You're worried about you. Kids
- 1:18:22Speaker 1: are good? How they good? Your kids? Jam boardroom and
- 1:18:27Speaker 1: back their kids. They that's supposed to work. I'm saying,
- 1:18:29Speaker 1: when the men you're supposed to pass them work, they're
- 1:18:33Speaker 1: worried about To me, they don't talk the other lessons.
- 1:18:37Speaker 1: I feel like I'm in deaf Jam's boardroom is not backstage?
- 1:18:40Speaker 1: Everybody cool out for a second. Why am I playing
- 1:18:42Speaker 1: the peacemaker? What kind of show is this? Why I
- 1:18:44Speaker 1: start playing the peacemaker? Okay, we'll be back with more.
- 1:18:47Speaker 1: Dame Dash right here on the Breakfast Black, I knew
- 1:18:49Speaker 1: I shouldn't a warded jay Z T shirt the Breakfast Club.
- 1:18:56Speaker 1: You're checking out the world's most dangerous morning show, dj
- 1:18:59Speaker 1: Envy Angela yee shawl mean the guy we all the
- 1:19:02Speaker 1: breakfast clubs. Good to see you working together again, too many?
- 1:19:05Speaker 1: You can you trust him though, because he was openly
- 1:19:07Speaker 1: admitted he was disloyal. Loyal to him and I wasn't.
- 1:19:11Speaker 1: And this is an extremely visionary move on my part
- 1:19:14Speaker 1: to h move to row with jay Z. Did you
- 1:19:18Speaker 1: tell Dame. I mean, if he's the one that believed
- 1:19:20Speaker 1: in you, then why does whole get the credit and
- 1:19:22Speaker 1: the Big Brother records? Yeah, I mean I mentioned Dame
- 1:19:25Speaker 1: a lot of raps, but it was the moment when
- 1:19:27Speaker 1: you know, Rockefeller split. It made more sense for me
- 1:19:29Speaker 1: career wise to row with Jay, even though Dame had
- 1:19:33Speaker 1: supported me. I think about trusted. You can't trust anybody,
- 1:19:37Speaker 1: so you don't put enough into anybody where they're just loyal.
- 1:19:40Speaker 1: She can hurt you. So there's nothing he can do
- 1:19:41Speaker 1: to hurt me. All he can do is be what
- 1:19:43Speaker 1: he's been. He has a platform and a lot of
- 1:19:46Speaker 1: people listening to what he say. As he's had that platform,
- 1:19:49Speaker 1: he's brought brought me into the equation by saying my
- 1:19:51Speaker 1: name in the honorable way that's worth millions. And they said,
- 1:19:54Speaker 1: you don't care. But do you think some people don't
- 1:19:55Speaker 1: give you the credit you deserve your business? Because it
- 1:19:57Speaker 1: looks like my perception the people you will with went
- 1:20:00Speaker 1: up the Jays and Kanye's and they said you was down.
- 1:20:04Speaker 1: I could say this in front of me. Everyone gives
- 1:20:06Speaker 1: me my props, so all that I see is to
- 1:20:09Speaker 1: respect in front of me. I don't hear about the
- 1:20:11Speaker 1: disrespect that's not in front of me. See, like I said,
- 1:20:13Speaker 1: people that talk about other people that aren't there are
- 1:20:16Speaker 1: cowards and they're insecure about the lack of things they've done,
- 1:20:19Speaker 1: So why would I just can't worry about them. Every
- 1:20:21Speaker 1: day people give me a handshake and give me my kudos,
- 1:20:23Speaker 1: so I don't walk around getting denied. You may read
- 1:20:27Speaker 1: it in the paper, but you got to think about
- 1:20:28Speaker 1: the platforms that are saying the bad things. Those are
- 1:20:31Speaker 1: the corporate platforms. They're trying to take all the attention
- 1:20:34Speaker 1: off one thing, which is me showing everyone how to
- 1:20:37Speaker 1: get money direct to consumer, how to not to have
- 1:20:40Speaker 1: to have a middle man. Like you guys don't need
- 1:20:42Speaker 1: a boss because you've all been here so long. You
- 1:20:46Speaker 1: guys off air should go to another studio, do a
- 1:20:48Speaker 1: show and just syndicate it. Just sell it and syndicate it.
- 1:20:52Speaker 1: You have enough power to do that. We own our
- 1:20:54Speaker 1: breakfast Club show. It'll be on the brand. We don't
- 1:20:57Speaker 1: know the brand. The Breakfast Club brand is owned by
- 1:20:58Speaker 1: a movie company only thirty years. So what do you own?
- 1:21:01Speaker 1: You show? So it's called our show? What's the name
- 1:21:05Speaker 1: of what you own? You're working with a name company, okay,
- 1:21:08Speaker 1: doing a favor. Start something that you own and then
- 1:21:11Speaker 1: start building that a name so that you can benefit
- 1:21:14Speaker 1: from every ancillary thing. It doesn't make sense to not
- 1:21:16Speaker 1: own it and promote the name you don't own. People listening,
- 1:21:19Speaker 1: you don't mind. If I was your boss? Oh no,
- 1:21:22Speaker 1: so can I hire you right now? It was if
- 1:21:25Speaker 1: you got the right money, Yeah, how much would it
- 1:21:27Speaker 1: take for you for me to be your boss to
- 1:21:29Speaker 1: do what? What do you get pay radio personnel? What
- 1:21:31Speaker 1: did your boss pay you to do your radio personnel?
- 1:21:33Speaker 1: They talk on there for four four hours a day day.
- 1:21:35Speaker 1: How much do you pay million do it and come
- 1:21:37Speaker 1: work for me? Yea, if it's guaranteed for a certain
- 1:21:39Speaker 1: amount of time and I get much And we're not
- 1:21:41Speaker 1: gonna talk about it on air, Dame, if I'm your boss,
- 1:21:44Speaker 1: you will, But you're not my boss now yet? Can
- 1:21:46Speaker 1: we talk about I got hood questions, man? I want
- 1:21:49Speaker 1: to know what big Il really gonna sign the Rockefeller Man.
- 1:21:52Speaker 1: I want to those stuff like that. Yeah, yeah, that's why. Yeah,
- 1:21:53Speaker 1: big I was gonna Okay, yeah he was. We were
- 1:21:56Speaker 1: talking about he was always you know, like I said,
- 1:21:58Speaker 1: Bigel was a Harlem dude. And he was the first
- 1:22:00Speaker 1: one in Harlem that was really doing it at that
- 1:22:01Speaker 1: level before all of us. Jay Z and Big Gel
- 1:22:04Speaker 1: battled one hundred and thirty nine Street two one. They
- 1:22:07Speaker 1: went rapped for rapping and Jay didn't get booed. People
- 1:22:11Speaker 1: were saying it was a close tie. So to me,
- 1:22:13Speaker 1: if you go on somebody else's blocking, it's a close
- 1:22:15Speaker 1: tie if you did that on his block. And so
- 1:22:18Speaker 1: that's how I gauged it. But in hindsight, you know,
- 1:22:21Speaker 1: I couldn't be objective because like at the time, everything
- 1:22:24Speaker 1: that Jay was talking about was about what we were doing,
- 1:22:26Speaker 1: you know, so with so much passion and what he
- 1:22:28Speaker 1: was saying, it was so honest. But I knew Big
- 1:22:30Speaker 1: Eel as well, you know, so it was you know,
- 1:22:32Speaker 1: you gotta remember in the moment, you don't know how
- 1:22:34Speaker 1: legendary things are gonna be. Do You're gonna put the
- 1:22:36Speaker 1: money up for Muka Drake the battle of what day?
- 1:22:38Speaker 1: If Drake will step up, well they'll organize it. I'm
- 1:22:40Speaker 1: sure amongst my Harlem friends we could get that up.
- 1:22:42Speaker 1: Drake made a fundamental mistake in battling. He challenged Muke.
- 1:22:45Speaker 1: Seeing in the street, you can't challenge somebody and take
- 1:22:47Speaker 1: back the challenge. So now that and this is from
- 1:22:50Speaker 1: what I've heard, so it ain't no disrespect that Drake,
- 1:22:52Speaker 1: but I think he said something on a motion, on
- 1:22:54Speaker 1: a business level. His people told him, yo, you got
- 1:22:57Speaker 1: too much to lose. So what I told Muke was,
- 1:23:00Speaker 1: Ke's not gonna balue you till you're richer than him,
- 1:23:02Speaker 1: and that'll be next week. And child Drake has something
- 1:23:06Speaker 1: to lose, He's not gonna. I wouldn't do it. I
- 1:23:08Speaker 1: wouldn't advise. Its like dog, It's like going to a
- 1:23:10Speaker 1: dice game where you got a man in your pocket
- 1:23:12Speaker 1: and it's only a hundred hours between everybody, you know.
- 1:23:14Speaker 1: That's how I was there, looking at it like you
- 1:23:16Speaker 1: ain't got nothing. He wants to do it. He wants
- 1:23:18Speaker 1: to do it, but I think he's being advised not
- 1:23:19Speaker 1: too but whenever he's ready. They came to me like, yo, Letsten,
- 1:23:23Speaker 1: if we could get Drake to do one round right now,
- 1:23:26Speaker 1: would you I go speak to him and he I'm like,
- 1:23:28Speaker 1: you got rhymes? Don't you waiting for you? I'm like,
- 1:23:33Speaker 1: I'm like, but it's cool, though, I'm like, give me
- 1:23:34Speaker 1: an hour, I'm gonna go come up. With trust me,
- 1:23:37Speaker 1: give me an hour. I'm like, Y'll tell him it's on.
- 1:23:39Speaker 1: It looked to all possibilities about to happen like right then,
- 1:23:42Speaker 1: and there spur a moment, and then five minutes later
- 1:23:46Speaker 1: his management was like, no, he can't do it. Yeah,
- 1:23:49Speaker 1: of course all dude can't do that. You can't ask
- 1:23:51Speaker 1: somebody for a fair win it back up. Just reminds me. Now,
- 1:23:53Speaker 1: I could tell you about a parallel example when Nis
- 1:23:57Speaker 1: had to eat the rout and I don't know what happened.
- 1:24:00Speaker 1: I was at Arizona shooting a rock Weear campaign and
- 1:24:04Speaker 1: when I landed, I heard super ugly when I landed it,
- 1:24:07Speaker 1: and I was shick because you didn't advise that. I
- 1:24:11Speaker 1: did not say that was all right? So oh me
- 1:24:13Speaker 1: and IRV Gotti or Gotti, So I called her. I'm like, er,
- 1:24:17Speaker 1: why did you you know? We told him, you know,
- 1:24:18Speaker 1: all this kind of stuff that we don't do. I
- 1:24:21Speaker 1: wish I could have rewinded it to like why y'all
- 1:24:23Speaker 1: didn't call me so I could have told you not
- 1:24:24Speaker 1: to do that. You understand what I'm saying. So in
- 1:24:27Speaker 1: the moment, an artist who's inspired is gonna he's gonna
- 1:24:31Speaker 1: try to fight. But he must have had somebody there
- 1:24:35Speaker 1: that Jay didn't have that day, because that was the
- 1:24:38Speaker 1: only elbow we really took. That was the beginning of
- 1:24:40Speaker 1: the end, really, you know, because we were unstoppable before that.
- 1:24:42Speaker 1: But you missed up. But someone should was there to
- 1:24:45Speaker 1: tell Jake, like you bugging, it's ruining you to day.
- 1:24:47Speaker 1: You're drinking, you know what I mean, Someone older or
- 1:24:50Speaker 1: smarter than him probably gave him the right advice, because
- 1:24:53Speaker 1: I wouldn't advise it. Would you have advised Jay to
- 1:24:55Speaker 1: reply to either at all or just leave it at
- 1:24:57Speaker 1: takeover in e she At the time, I felt like
- 1:25:00Speaker 1: we were winning, you know, because we had done to
- 1:25:02Speaker 1: Michael Jackson thing and we had called him out. So
- 1:25:05Speaker 1: he to me, he was talking here, say like our
- 1:25:08Speaker 1: thing when I battled Michael. I'm with I like to
- 1:25:11Speaker 1: tell the truth. I don't like to say who says
- 1:25:12Speaker 1: the funniest punch lines. The bottom line is we professional,
- 1:25:15Speaker 1: so let's just say true things. So I thought, like
- 1:25:18Speaker 1: the stuff that Nah said was dope, But I think
- 1:25:20Speaker 1: like he emotionally got a Jay because he was inviting
- 1:25:23Speaker 1: him to us. It was a little chatty patty. Yeah,
- 1:25:25Speaker 1: So I was like, yo, you just got caught up
- 1:25:27Speaker 1: in gossip. You don't have to answer gossip. If he
- 1:25:30Speaker 1: said something real like dame, dummy dame. I thought that
- 1:25:32Speaker 1: was dope because he said my name. But everyone knows
- 1:25:35Speaker 1: I'm not dumb. It's obvious, so I'm not going to
- 1:25:37Speaker 1: reply to them, you know what I mean. I'm gonna
- 1:25:39Speaker 1: be happy he said it, So I thought like he
- 1:25:40Speaker 1: should let it rock out. That's why he did it
- 1:25:42Speaker 1: when I wasn't around, you know what I mean. So
- 1:25:44Speaker 1: I thought we had played it fair, and I don't
- 1:25:47Speaker 1: care if other people think someone wins. All I care
- 1:25:50Speaker 1: is if I think I want. You know, I did
- 1:25:52Speaker 1: it right and played the game, so I didn't think
- 1:25:54Speaker 1: it was necessary, you know what I mean. But if
- 1:25:56Speaker 1: he was going to do it wouldn't have been like
- 1:25:57Speaker 1: I wouldn't have. So that's why he lost. You see,
- 1:26:00Speaker 1: when you Scots end up doing things that are honorable,
- 1:26:03Speaker 1: when you end up apologizing on the radio the next day.
- 1:26:05Speaker 1: But www, slow Side of the movie, don't forget blow
- 1:26:09Speaker 1: Side is the movie dot Com? For them? Hello said hello,
- 1:26:20Speaker 1: I S A I D A S Yeah yeah the
- 1:26:23Speaker 1: movie dot Com And and and then I'm gonna hire
- 1:26:25Speaker 1: envy I'm hold on, there's no way. I'm They wanted
- 1:26:30Speaker 1: to know, Envy, how much respect you have form? Would
- 1:26:33Speaker 1: you let him get the would you let him get
- 1:26:34Speaker 1: the Jordans? Would you let him get the Jordans? Or
- 1:26:36Speaker 1: you want to you want your man's out there? He
- 1:26:38Speaker 1: got to Jordans and he was like, I got only
- 1:26:40Speaker 1: tens and Envy got him, so maybe don't want him
- 1:26:42Speaker 1: to have him. I was like, oh, that's my man.
- 1:26:43Speaker 1: I know, Eve even pay me the proper respect. I
- 1:26:45Speaker 1: know maybe before the end of you you would even
- 1:26:53Speaker 1: buy him. I'm not yet, not yet, but if I'd
- 1:26:58Speaker 1: rather be honestly, I wouldn't want to be your boss.
- 1:27:01Speaker 1: I'd rather be your partner. And I would rather like
- 1:27:03Speaker 1: plus do a book, do a movie, do a doc.
- 1:27:06Speaker 1: I would throw down. If you want on a radio
- 1:27:08Speaker 1: show to syndicate that has a new name. What's the
- 1:27:11Speaker 1: name of what your own breakfast club? You don't own
- 1:27:14Speaker 1: the breakfast club, don't there's no name? All right? So
- 1:27:16Speaker 1: you own the no name? Can we have a name
- 1:27:19Speaker 1: and we could do something together? And I'm down, I'll
- 1:27:22Speaker 1: do a movie with y'all. I'll do something with you,
- 1:27:24Speaker 1: you know. And I was just thinking like revolt if
- 1:27:26Speaker 1: puff owners revote. He's from home, that's my channel. Okay,
- 1:27:30Speaker 1: maybe I'm being chatty, but I just saw the ask
- 1:27:33Speaker 1: me a question. Yeah, you said that. Did he wouldn't
- 1:27:35Speaker 1: clear to call him? Did he whatever? Whatever? You wouldn't
- 1:27:41Speaker 1: clear big to be in the Brooklyn's find pump. Yeah,
- 1:27:45Speaker 1: he wouldn't clear it. So why could you do business
- 1:27:48Speaker 1: with him? If? Because I don't sally do business? I said,
- 1:27:50Speaker 1: I want to use this network. That's okay, Okay, you
- 1:27:53Speaker 1: gotta listen, Chatty Patty. It's the longest interview we've ever
- 1:27:56Speaker 1: done on it. But I'm chatty patty questions, but hopefully
- 1:28:02Speaker 1: you don't even feel the time I was trying to.
- 1:28:04Speaker 1: But you know you were about something like such a such,
- 1:28:06Speaker 1: such a such, such and such I'm talking about with him.
- 1:28:09Speaker 1: See now he got y'all talking about doing your own things.
- 1:28:12Speaker 1: That's what I'm about. Though, you feel me even through
- 1:28:14Speaker 1: controversial conversations. But it's not. It's just a difference of perspective,
- 1:28:18Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying exactly. Men could have conversations. You
- 1:28:21Speaker 1: don't gotta fight over that, you know what I mean?
- 1:28:22Speaker 1: Like I didn't disrespect by once it was like, oh,
- 1:28:24Speaker 1: you're stupid. I was like, but I might have said it,
- 1:28:26Speaker 1: so I was like, my bad. And if I did,
- 1:28:28Speaker 1: you know, that's not what I do. But and you
