- 2:22Speaker 1: was nobody sitting behind me, and they have the middle
- 2:25Speaker 1: seats empty and coach, so you know, they try to
- 2:29Speaker 1: make it as safe as possible. You have to have

- 2:34Speaker 1: It felt fine, you had to, you had it to
- 2:37Speaker 1: the next Cali. Well, you know, I have to quarantine
- 2:40Speaker 1: at home now that I still being still being responsible
- 2:44Speaker 1: with everything I'm doing, okay, but still gotta, you know,
- 2:47Speaker 1: make sure I'm making some money really okay? All right,
- 2:52Speaker 1: Well let's get the show cracking front page news. What
- 2:55Speaker 1: we're talking about, Well, let's talk about TikTok. Is TikTok
- 2:58Speaker 1: about to be banned here in the United States? Or
- 3:02Speaker 1: is a major corporation buying it? We'll tell you what's
- 3:04Speaker 1: going on. All right, We'll get you know. You know,
- 3:08Speaker 1: on Friday, we had a conversation with a woman whose
- 3:12Speaker 1: name is has been has now been thrown in the
- 3:14Speaker 1: hato to be vice president, and her name is Congressman
- 3:17Speaker 1: Karen Bass and she'll be joining us this morning. And
- 3:21Speaker 1: also Roy we talked to a Friday and Roy Jones
- 3:24Speaker 1: Junior will be joining us as well. So let's get
- 3:26Speaker 1: the show cracking front page news. Next is the Breakfast Club.
- 3:29Speaker 1: Good morning morning. Everybody is DJ Envy angela Ye, Charlomagne
- 3:34Speaker 1: the guy we are the Breakfast Club. Let's get in
- 3:36Speaker 1: some front page news where were starting you, Well, let's
- 3:41Speaker 1: start with Orlando Magic's Jonathan Isaac. He wasn't wearing a
- 3:45Speaker 1: Black Lives Matters during the national anthem on Friday's game
- 3:48Speaker 1: against the Brooklyn Nuts, and he also decided not to
- 3:50Speaker 1: kneel with the rest of his teammates. So here is
- 3:54Speaker 1: why he made the decision that he made. I believe
- 3:56Speaker 1: that black lives matter. A lot went into my decision,
- 3:59Speaker 1: is part of it. First of all, it's my thought
- 4:02Speaker 1: that jo kneeling all wearing the Black Lives Matter T
- 4:05Speaker 1: shirt don't go hand in hand with supporting black lives.
- 4:08Speaker 1: For myself, my life has been supported to the Gospel
- 4:12Speaker 1: Jesus Christ. All right. Orlando Magic coach Steve Clifford said
- 4:18Speaker 1: that they do support his decision. His teammates support him,
- 4:21Speaker 1: the organization supports him. So that's part of living in
- 4:23Speaker 1: our country. He can express himself how he seems fit.
- 4:27Speaker 1: But then yesterday he tore his acl in the game
- 4:31Speaker 1: down kind of hard. Yeah, he went down kind of hard.
- 4:33Speaker 1: He had to be Uh. They had to get a
- 4:35Speaker 1: wheelchair to get him off the court. I hope he hills.
- 4:38Speaker 1: I hope he hills. Man. I hope he hills fast
- 4:39Speaker 1: to a CLA usually out for a year whenever ACL.
- 4:43Speaker 1: That's a that's a long process. I think it's shorter
- 4:46Speaker 1: now just because of technology, but it's definitely a long process.
- 4:49Speaker 1: I saw people saying, Um, that was Carmel. I don't
- 4:51Speaker 1: I don't think that's Carmel. I don't know if that's karma.
- 4:54Speaker 1: I mean, him not wanting to the nil isn't wrong,
- 4:57Speaker 1: nor does it mean he doesn't care. It's a choice
- 4:59Speaker 1: he made. But I don't know that's karma because I mean,
- 5:01Speaker 1: you know, if Kyrie Lebron, God forbid hurt themselves, somebody
- 5:05Speaker 1: on the other side could say that's karma because they
- 5:07Speaker 1: won't stand for the anthem. I wouldn't throw the word
- 5:09Speaker 1: calma around so loose from people, all right, And being
- 5:13Speaker 1: a Christian, he just have to accept that's God's plan, right,
- 5:15Speaker 1: that he got hurt. All Right, Now, let's talk about
- 5:18Speaker 1: what's happening with TikTok. Donald Trump is planning to ban
- 5:21Speaker 1: TikTok through an executive action. He told reporters on Friday
- 5:25Speaker 1: that he wants to do that. He did not specify
- 5:27Speaker 1: how it's going to happen, but it was reported that
- 5:30Speaker 1: Microsoft also has been in talks to buy the TikTok
- 5:33Speaker 1: video sharing mobile app from the Chinese and so Chinese owner.
- 5:37Speaker 1: So Donald Trump on Friday said he's planning to do
- 5:40Speaker 1: this band sometime soon. Well. The general manager of TikTok,
- 5:44Speaker 1: Vanessa Papas, had this to say, we plant your outpouring
- 5:47Speaker 1: of support and we want to say thank you. We're
- 5:49Speaker 1: not planning on going anywhere. I'm also proud of about
- 5:53Speaker 1: fifteen hundred give US employees to work on the side
- 5:56Speaker 1: of every day and the additional ten thousand jumps that
- 5:59Speaker 1: we're bringing into this country over the next three years.
- 6:02Speaker 1: I'm thrilled about our US Creative Fund where we just
- 6:05Speaker 1: pronounced How'm doing all the fund to support our creators.
- 6:08Speaker 1: And when it comes to safety and security, we're building
- 6:10Speaker 1: the safest app because you know what's the right thing
- 6:13Speaker 1: to do. So is it band not yet? But he
- 6:18Speaker 1: wants to ban it. He wants to ban it. But
- 6:21Speaker 1: it looks like Microsoft is really close to acquiring TikTok
- 6:24Speaker 1: here in the US, and in that case they'll be
- 6:28Speaker 1: working with the government too. Had let it continue? How
- 6:31Speaker 1: do you want to ban TikTok before you band? Police
- 6:33Speaker 1: chokeholds that killed George Floyd and Eric Garda, a band
- 6:36Speaker 1: TikTok before you being no knock warrants that killed Brianna Taylor,
- 6:39Speaker 1: a band TikTok before you've been a off fifteen, and
- 6:42Speaker 1: the mother weapons that go back, Like, how do you
- 6:45Speaker 1: ban TikTok before? How do you want to ban TikTok
- 6:47Speaker 1: before you want to ban all those things? That makes
- 6:49Speaker 1: no sense to me. But yeah, this is I mean,
- 6:54Speaker 1: I'm confused. I have no problem before the year olds
- 6:57Speaker 1: being banned from TikTok, but before the end up you
- 6:59Speaker 1: don't need to have your big at grown ass on
- 7:01Speaker 1: TikTok Okay, you look ridiculous. At one Star I saw
- 7:04Speaker 1: out this weekend is a school one of the first
- 7:06Speaker 1: school districts in the country to reopen its stores during
- 7:09Speaker 1: the coronavirus pandemic. Did not even make it a day
- 7:12Speaker 1: before having to say we have to shut back down.
- 7:14Speaker 1: So as more schools are trying to figure this out.
- 7:17Speaker 1: That was in Indiana, they had to quarantine students within hours,
- 7:21Speaker 1: so they're still trying to figure out how are they
- 7:23Speaker 1: going to open these schools. But just hours into the
- 7:25Speaker 1: first day of classes on Thursday, a call from the
- 7:27Speaker 1: Country Health Department said that Greenfield Central Junior High School, Indiana,
- 7:31Speaker 1: a student walked the halls and sat in various classrooms
- 7:34Speaker 1: and that student did test positive for coronavirus. Wow, that's
- 7:39Speaker 1: gonna be difficult open to these schools. Yeah, that was
- 7:42Speaker 1: that's crazy. One kid got it and it's a rap.
- 7:45Speaker 1: You know, Grand opening, Grand closed. Absolutely all right, Well
- 7:49Speaker 1: that is front page news. Now get it off your chest.
- 7:51Speaker 1: Eight hundred five one oh five one. How was your weekend?
- 7:55Speaker 1: Let us know you had a great weekend. Let us
- 7:56Speaker 1: know oil, maybe it was horrible, whatever it may be,
- 7:58Speaker 1: Get it off your chest. Eight hundred five eight five
- 8:01Speaker 1: one five one to call us. Now it's the breakfast club.
- 8:04Speaker 1: Good morning the breakfast club. This is your time to
- 8:10Speaker 1: get it off your chest. Whether you're man from you
- 8:14Speaker 1: on the breakfast club, but you got sucks on your mind.
- 8:17Speaker 1: Let hello, who's this? You know what's going on? Envy?
- 8:21Speaker 1: Good morning, Charlottagne, Good morning. Angela's Rick from Brooklyn going on.
- 8:27Speaker 1: I ain't took the other minute. I was working night though.
- 8:29Speaker 1: Every time I got off, you guys were just getting on. Anyway,
- 8:32Speaker 1: I want to talk about TikTok, right, And I want
- 8:35Speaker 1: to talk about the fact that Trump wants to band
- 8:37Speaker 1: TikTok based on a campaign with all these young kids
- 8:41Speaker 1: trying to build a platform to you know, to be
- 8:44Speaker 1: against him in this upcoming election. So a big part
- 8:48Speaker 1: of why he wants to bang TikTok is not because
- 8:50Speaker 1: of China, because they spent so money into so many companies,
- 8:54Speaker 1: have so many businesses and have their products made in
- 8:57Speaker 1: China that over three hundred million dollars of art less
- 9:00Speaker 1: money went to Chinese businesses, So it can't be because
- 9:03Speaker 1: of China. It's basically basically because of all the kids
- 9:07Speaker 1: that are on TikTok that are rallying against him and
- 9:09Speaker 1: using the platform as a tool to be against him
- 9:13Speaker 1: and end up coming in an upcoming election. So he's
- 9:15Speaker 1: just being a hypocrite. Microsoft is thinking about buying TikTok out.
- 9:20Speaker 1: I hope they will because then it's gonna you know,
- 9:22Speaker 1: shoot up soft stock and give people more jobs here.
- 9:25Speaker 1: But Trump is just trying to use TikTok as as
- 9:28Speaker 1: an escapegoat, and he's trying to really sabotage this upcoming election.
- 9:32Speaker 1: So people should really go out and vote and really
- 9:34Speaker 1: participate in the process right now, because it's a lot
- 9:37Speaker 1: going on behind the scenes. He's trying to ban um
- 9:40Speaker 1: um of absent te ballots and all this stuff. So
- 9:43Speaker 1: people got to really pay attention to what's going on.
- 9:45Speaker 1: And if you're gonna be on TikTok, use it for
- 9:48Speaker 1: something positive and not just be on him working and
- 9:51Speaker 1: doing dumb. I've been telling I've been saying for over
- 9:56Speaker 1: a year, over a year that even though Trump loses
- 9:59Speaker 1: the election in November, but he's gonna find a way
- 10:01Speaker 1: to to to to stay in that White House. I'm
- 10:04Speaker 1: telling you watch all right, and that's the conversation that
- 10:06Speaker 1: they're having. Now, what what if? What if Trump loses
- 10:09Speaker 1: but refuses to leave? Hello? Who's this TI on your host?
- 10:16Speaker 1: Good mon? Name Tech? Sound like you need a tik tech? Ah? Yeah,
- 10:23Speaker 1: sounds crazy an work trash. Ah. You can't even get
- 10:30Speaker 1: off into me what you want to I'm just trying
- 10:35Speaker 1: to spend pive. Oh my goodness, I'm sorry, Mike got
- 10:38Speaker 1: a call back. Geez, get it off your chest. Eight
- 10:42Speaker 1: hundred five eight five one oh five one. If you
- 10:44Speaker 1: need to vent, hit this up now. It's the Breakfast Club.
- 10:46Speaker 1: Good morning, The Breakfast club. Wake up, wake up Wall
- 10:55Speaker 1: You're time to get it off your chest? Is it
- 10:58Speaker 1: your man or blas? We want to hear from you
- 11:00Speaker 1: the breakfast Hello, who's this? Come on this, Chris? Come
- 11:04Speaker 1: on to Breakfast Club. Chris? What I get it off her? Chess? Brother? Yeah,
- 11:07Speaker 1: I just wanted to talk about he's going back to schools.
- 11:10Speaker 1: I got a thirteen year old daughter, she's a Detroit
- 11:12Speaker 1: public school and I gotta call a couple of weeks
- 11:14Speaker 1: ago saying, hey, how do you feel about kids going
- 11:18Speaker 1: back to school? And I told him I'm I don't
- 11:19Speaker 1: agree with it, and I have heard back from me yet.
- 11:22Speaker 1: So I don't know what these people here in Detroit
- 11:23Speaker 1: is going to do about the school, but I just
- 11:25Speaker 1: don't think it's safe at this time. Yeah, I mean,
- 11:28Speaker 1: you gotta do its best for you. You can't. You
- 11:29Speaker 1: can't rely on the school. This You can tell you
- 11:31Speaker 1: if you should bring your kids or not. You gotta.
- 11:33Speaker 1: You gotta basis off what you feel and what you think.
- 11:36Speaker 1: You know. So, what is this deal with Trump? What
- 11:38Speaker 1: is his big push or what is his power behind
- 11:40Speaker 1: the push or what is his sl He doesn't have
- 11:45Speaker 1: a plan right now, doesn't have a plan but yet
- 11:48Speaker 1: still he's pushing people to try to go back to school,
- 11:50Speaker 1: when yeah, I think he's just trying to push things
- 11:54Speaker 1: to get back to normal because he keeps ignoring a
- 11:56Speaker 1: problem because he thinks ignoring a problem is gonna make
- 11:58Speaker 1: it go away. But that's not the case here. So
- 12:01Speaker 1: just because we're back in school is not going to
- 12:03Speaker 1: make coronavirus disappear. Now, in New York City, they're doing
- 12:06Speaker 1: a hybrid model that's going to start September ten, so
- 12:09Speaker 1: there'll be kids going to classes one or three days
- 12:12Speaker 1: a week. And then they said if anything happens, if
- 12:14Speaker 1: there's any cases, that would mean that the schools would
- 12:18Speaker 1: likely have to shut down buildings or have individual classrooms.
- 12:21Speaker 1: They said, wanted to confirm cases in a single classroom,
- 12:25Speaker 1: would require those classes to close for fourteen days and
- 12:28Speaker 1: then all the students and staff members have to quarantine. Well,
- 12:31Speaker 1: at least you guys got a plan near in New York.
- 12:33Speaker 1: Here in Detroit, I don't know what the plan is,
- 12:35Speaker 1: all right, brother, we'll do it's best for you, Okay,
- 12:37Speaker 1: thank you appreciate it, all right, bro, I don't think
- 12:39Speaker 1: you would realize how stressful this is. Man. There is
- 12:42Speaker 1: no believe me it is. It is. Hello, who's this
- 12:46Speaker 1: morning and breakfast? Come out y'all doing morning's happening? You know,
- 12:51Speaker 1: have y'all ever heard of Black August. It's Black August, Okay,
- 12:56Speaker 1: So I just found out about it. And I think
- 12:58Speaker 1: one of the like crazy or great things about this
- 13:00Speaker 1: time is that I'm finding so much about black history.
- 13:03Speaker 1: But Black August started in the seventies by the freedom
- 13:07Speaker 1: fighters in California, and it's basically a time like dedicated
- 13:11Speaker 1: to learning about black revolutionaries, like understanding the struggle against
- 13:16Speaker 1: white supremacy, colonialism, capitalism, and imperialism. And like a lot
- 13:21Speaker 1: of um black revolutionaries were born in this month, like
- 13:26Speaker 1: Marcus Garvey, um, and you know, Fred Hampton. So it's
- 13:30Speaker 1: just it's just like it's just a time to like
- 13:33Speaker 1: look to the past and then train and dedicate yourself
- 13:37Speaker 1: to continue the fight that they've been uh, you know,
- 13:40Speaker 1: pushing since they were doing it before we started. All right,
- 13:45Speaker 1: there's a movie. There's a movie called Black August. Also,
- 13:48Speaker 1: I guess that'll give some history. Get it off your
- 13:51Speaker 1: chess eight hundred five eight five one o five one.
- 13:53Speaker 1: If you need to vent, you can hit us up now.
- 13:55Speaker 1: We got rumors on the way. Man, this was a
- 13:57Speaker 1: really tough story to have to see over the weekend.
- 14:00Speaker 1: And but we'll talk about Frank Ocean. His brother has
- 14:04Speaker 1: allegedly died in a car crash. That will give you
- 14:06Speaker 1: that information, all right, we'll get into that next. Keep
- 14:09Speaker 1: a lock. This to Breakfast Club. Good morning. This is
- 14:16Speaker 1: the rumor report with Angela Yee on the Breakfast Club.
- 14:21Speaker 1: But this was a really sad story over the weekend.
- 14:24Speaker 1: Frank Ocean's little brother, only eighteen years old, Ryan bro
- 14:28Speaker 1: is reportedly dead after a car accident. There were two
- 14:30Speaker 1: men in the vehicle. It was Ryan Brow and his
- 14:33Speaker 1: classmate Ezekiel Bishop. So the victim's identities were named on
- 14:37Speaker 1: social media. Authorities have not officially confirmed it, but there's
- 14:41Speaker 1: been all kinds of support and love and a lot
- 14:45Speaker 1: of people giving tributes on social media their classmates. When
- 14:49Speaker 1: officials arrived, the vehicle was fully engulfed in flames. They said.
- 14:53Speaker 1: The two occupants were pronounced dead at the scene. In
- 14:56Speaker 1: the vehicle was severely damaged. They hit a tree before
- 14:59Speaker 1: getting cut and half on impact. Yeah, well, condolence is
- 15:03Speaker 1: definitely to his family, absolutely absolutely, that's sad. Sending them
- 15:08Speaker 1: loving light at a time like this, right, not an
- 15:11Speaker 1: easy time. And while they are still investigating what they
- 15:15Speaker 1: are saying, they believe speed played a role in this crash.
- 15:19Speaker 1: All right, gee, Herbo has announced his own mental health
- 15:22Speaker 1: initiative and don't we need it now. It's called Swerving
- 15:25Speaker 1: through Stress and so he's teamed up with Audio Mac
- 15:29Speaker 1: to create this initiative. So what they'll do is the
- 15:33Speaker 1: Dream Team Therapy Fund will provide three months of therapy
- 15:35Speaker 1: sessions for black youth ages eighteen to twenty five. And
- 15:39Speaker 1: he said about seventy five percent of all lifetime mental
- 15:42Speaker 1: illnesses will begin by the age of twenty four. Only
- 15:45Speaker 1: one out of three African Americans who need mental healthcare
- 15:48Speaker 1: receive it early. Intervention can help reduce the severity of
- 15:51Speaker 1: an illness. Access to resources is essential. That's right. We
- 15:55Speaker 1: need all hands on deck in regard to helping people
- 15:57Speaker 1: stay mentally healthy right now, So drop on a clue
- 16:00Speaker 1: bonds with g Herbal I respect all right. Earlier this
- 16:05Speaker 1: week he actually had a mental health panel that was
- 16:07Speaker 1: attended by the City Girls, Seweti wile A and n
- 16:10Speaker 1: Ellie Choppa and moderated by Jessica Clemens, doctor Jess Doctor Jess.
- 16:16Speaker 1: All Right, Brandy has spoken up. She did an interview

- 16:20Speaker 1: album out and she's talking about bringing back her show
- 16:24Speaker 1: Moesia for a reboot. Here's what she said. I'm definitely
- 16:27Speaker 1: open to it. I would love to experience that. It's
- 16:30Speaker 1: it's an idea, It's an idea. Um, I just know
- 16:33Speaker 1: that for me, I just want for everyone to know
- 16:36Speaker 1: that I'm open to it and I'm I'm in discussions. Okay,
- 16:40Speaker 1: the right people to make it happen. Would y'all be
- 16:42Speaker 1: here for that? I'll never really watch that. Yeah, yeah,
- 16:48Speaker 1: I wasn't in the Moesha either, But I do know
- 16:50Speaker 1: a lot of people loved Moesia. But I'm always interested
- 16:52Speaker 1: in and watching those reboots only because I do like
- 16:55Speaker 1: to see, you know, what happened to the characters, Like
- 16:58Speaker 1: how do you make the characters grow up? It wouldn't
- 17:00Speaker 1: impact me the same way because I didn't really watch
- 17:03Speaker 1: Moisha when I was I was a fan of Moisha,
- 17:05Speaker 1: so I guess yeah, to be her as an adult
- 17:07Speaker 1: with her family, who knows it seemed like mad people
- 17:11Speaker 1: on that show died though, didn't like three people on
- 17:13Speaker 1: that show died, Merlin Santana died. I feel like like
- 17:17Speaker 1: three people on Moisha died. Don't let me look it
- 17:19Speaker 1: up real quick, all right? While you looked at up.
- 17:21Speaker 1: We were talking about TikTok earlier, and little Yadi is
- 17:24Speaker 1: embarrassed that his TikTok got out. I don't know if
- 17:27Speaker 1: y'all saw it, but it was with this song playing
- 17:29Speaker 1: and he had his hair straighten with bangs and everything. Yeah, yo,
- 17:43Speaker 1: he said, I ain't gonna lie. My TikTok was never
- 17:45Speaker 1: supposed to get out. Now that it's been found, I
- 17:47Speaker 1: am embarrassed. Can you be a celebrity like Yadi and
- 17:51Speaker 1: have a secret TikTok? Though? I mean, they can see
- 17:53Speaker 1: you on TikTok. It's not like, yeah, I'm watching this,
- 17:57Speaker 1: I'm watching this haircut. Now you still know what's yadda.
- 18:00Speaker 1: I mean maybe he thought it was just funny he
- 18:02Speaker 1: did it, and he didn't know it's gonna go viral.
- 18:05Speaker 1: But he's embarrassed, all right. Ellen's degenerous. There's all kinds
- 18:08Speaker 1: of rumors swirling around about her show. There was a
- 18:11Speaker 1: rumor going around this weekend that she just wants out
- 18:14Speaker 1: and she wants to quit the show, but according to
- 18:17Speaker 1: other reports, they're saying she has no intention of walking
- 18:19Speaker 1: away from her signature talk show or her game show.
- 18:22Speaker 1: She plans to report to work August twenty fourth for
- 18:25Speaker 1: Ellen's Game of Games and to the set of The
- 18:28Speaker 1: Ellen Show from when it premieres again on September ninth.
- 18:31Speaker 1: According to internal emails, so people are talking about James Cordon.
- 18:35Speaker 1: He's being groomed to take over, and they're saying those
- 18:37Speaker 1: talks had already been happening even before all of this
- 18:41Speaker 1: drama that's been going on with the Ellen Show. So
- 18:44Speaker 1: we don't know when that is going to go down,
- 18:46Speaker 1: but he is in line next to replace her. I'll
- 18:50Speaker 1: tell you what, though, I bet you Ellen is gonna
- 18:52Speaker 1: be the nicest person on set from here on out. Absolutely,
- 18:55Speaker 1: I bet you had. If she had an attitude before,
- 18:59Speaker 1: she was hard to work with before, I bet she's
- 19:01Speaker 1: gonna be the nicest person in the world now change
- 19:05Speaker 1: a five star boss now well. According to report, she's
- 19:10Speaker 1: devastated that Hollywood turned on her so fast. You don't
- 19:13Speaker 1: see too many celebrities taking up for her right now
- 19:16Speaker 1: and defending her. And on top of all that, right
- 19:18Speaker 1: now there are accusations of sexual misconduct with the executives
- 19:23Speaker 1: on Ellen Degenerous a show. In particular, they've been talking
- 19:26Speaker 1: about one person who is a high level executive there,
- 19:30Speaker 1: Kevin Lehman. He's an executive producer and a head writer.
- 19:34Speaker 1: They said that he requested a hand job in oral
- 19:37Speaker 1: sex from one employee in a bathroom during a company
- 19:40Speaker 1: party back in twenty thirteen. Another ex employee said they
- 19:43Speaker 1: saw a la man grab the penis of a production assistant,
- 19:46Speaker 1: and another person said she witnessed him grope a production
- 19:49Speaker 1: assistant inside a vehicle and kiss his neck. Now, there's
- 19:52Speaker 1: been multiple former employees that are speaking out about all
- 19:56Speaker 1: of these sexually explicit comments that he made in the office,
- 19:58Speaker 1: including pointing out mill workers bulgers in their crotches, or
- 20:01Speaker 1: asking them questions like are you a top or a bottom?
- 20:05Speaker 1: They said it's masked and sarcasm, but it's not sarcasm.
- 20:08Speaker 1: He'll do it in front of like ten people. They
- 20:10Speaker 1: would laugh because it's just Kevin being Kevin. But if
- 20:12Speaker 1: you're in a position of power at a company, you
- 20:14Speaker 1: don't just get to touch me like that. Now, he
- 20:17Speaker 1: has responded to these allegations, and he says, I started
- 20:20Speaker 1: at The Ellen Show as a PA more than seventeen
- 20:22Speaker 1: years ago, and I have devoted my career to work
- 20:24Speaker 1: my way to that position I now hold. While my
- 20:27Speaker 1: job as a head writer is to come up with jokes,
- 20:29Speaker 1: and during that process we can occasionally push the envelope.
- 20:32Speaker 1: I'm horrified that some of my attempts of humor may
- 20:34Speaker 1: have caused offense. I've always aimed to treat everyone on
- 20:37Speaker 1: the staff with kindness, inclusivity, and respect. Yeah. One of
- 20:40Speaker 1: the EP step down last weekend, Glavin. So yeah, right,
- 20:45Speaker 1: a lot of things behind the scenes there, all right,
- 20:48Speaker 1: I'm an Oh and remember yes, I said, yes, it's
- 20:52Speaker 1: called the soul called Molsha Curse because Merlin Santana died,
- 20:55Speaker 1: Yvette Wilson died, and Lamont Bentley all died. Yea mom
- 21:00Speaker 1: billy who played her team died in the car craft Vette.
- 21:02Speaker 1: I think she died of cancer. And I feel like
- 21:06Speaker 1: Merlin Santana was killed if I'm not mistaken. Yeah, And
- 21:09Speaker 1: I mean and Bernie McAllen, Bernie mcam what we should do? Wow? Listen, Yeah,
- 21:14Speaker 1: I remember, I remember that's when they first started talking
- 21:16Speaker 1: about that curse. All right, well, that is your room
- 21:20Speaker 1: of report. When we come back, we got front page news.
- 21:22Speaker 1: What we're talking about. Ye, yes, we are going to
- 21:26Speaker 1: be discussing coronavirus. Find out which head NFL coach now
- 21:30Speaker 1: has been diagnosed positive. All right, we'll get into that next.
- 21:33Speaker 1: Keeping locked this to Breakfast Club. Good morning morning. Everybody
- 21:37Speaker 1: is cj Envy, Angela Yee, Charlemagne the guy we are
- 21:40Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news
- 21:44Speaker 1: when we starting. Ye, well, let's start with TikTok. Microsoft
- 21:48Speaker 1: is naring a deal with TikTok after Donald Trump has
- 21:51Speaker 1: threatened that he would ban the app. Just it could
- 21:55Speaker 1: happen as early as today, but it looks like this
- 21:57Speaker 1: deal could actually make sure that we still have TikTok
- 22:00Speaker 1: here in the United States. A lot of people feel
- 22:02Speaker 1: like Donald Trump's issues with TikTok are all because they
- 22:05Speaker 1: had this whole They did this whole campaign to make
- 22:09Speaker 1: sure that the rally that he hadn't would be pretty empty,
- 22:14Speaker 1: so that all started on TikTok. So it feels like
- 22:16Speaker 1: it might be something personal. But what he is saying
- 22:18Speaker 1: is that it's a security threat and that they would
- 22:20Speaker 1: be having access to your personal information, and that's why
- 22:24Speaker 1: he wants to band TikTok, But it looks like Microsoft
- 22:26Speaker 1: is nearing a pretty big deal. They actually bought LinkedIn
- 22:29Speaker 1: most recently back for twenty seven billion dollars, and they're
- 22:33Speaker 1: saying it looks like that deal, even though it hasn't
- 22:35Speaker 1: paid off yet, it looks like it was a good
- 22:37Speaker 1: deal thus far. It's just wild that your mind says
- 22:41Speaker 1: you're gonna ban TikTok before you ban police choke hold
- 22:45Speaker 1: that killed George Floyd and Eric gon are a band
- 22:47Speaker 1: no knock warrants that killed Brianna Taylor. You're gonna ban
- 22:50Speaker 1: TikTok before you present some type of you know, federal
- 22:54Speaker 1: police reform. Are you gonna ban TikTok before you've been
- 22:57Speaker 1: a off fifteen and those other semiotic my automatic weapons
- 23:00Speaker 1: people used to kill mad people at one time, Like
- 23:03Speaker 1: Jesus Chris, TikTok a bigger threat to our safety than that's,
- 23:07Speaker 1: I mean, come on. They said about eleven percent of
- 23:10Speaker 1: US adults use TikTok at least once per week, and
- 23:14Speaker 1: those numbers for YouTube or forty nine percent sixty two
- 23:16Speaker 1: percent for Facebook, according to a survey. Now, the world's
- 23:20Speaker 1: most valuable company right now is Apple. It is the
- 23:24Speaker 1: most valuable publicly traded company in the world. They said.
- 23:27Speaker 1: By the clothes of market on Friday, Apple was valued
- 23:30Speaker 1: at one point eight four trillion dollars. Wow, what is Amazon? Amazon? Yeah,
- 23:41Speaker 1: Amazon just went through the roof. I don't know if
- 23:43Speaker 1: I do I have any Apple stop stocking my I
- 23:46Speaker 1: don't know. I gotta check them. Well, Apple is the
- 23:49Speaker 1: world's most valuable company and that's worldwide. So okay, no
- 23:54Speaker 1: surprise there by the way, all right, and Philadelphia Eagles
- 23:58Speaker 1: coach has tested positive our coronavirus. Doug Peterson, the head coach,
- 24:02Speaker 1: is asymptomatic and doing well in self quarantine. He's coached
- 24:06Speaker 1: the Eagle since twenty sixteen. He led them to their
- 24:09Speaker 1: first ever Super Bowl victory back in twenty eighteen. So
- 24:13Speaker 1: he is going to continue to leave the Eagles from
- 24:15Speaker 1: home virtually, just like you did during the offseason and
- 24:18Speaker 1: during the NFL Draft. All right, all right, well that
- 24:25Speaker 1: is your front page news. Now when we come back,
- 24:28Speaker 1: we have a member of the US House Representatives from California,
- 24:32Speaker 1: Karon Bass, will be joining us, so we'll talk to
- 24:35Speaker 1: we come back. There's a there's a I guess a
- 24:39Speaker 1: vice president sweepstakes as you would call it, you know,
- 24:41Speaker 1: and then her name has entered defray later, but it's
- 24:45Speaker 1: into defray nonetheless. So we're gonna talk to Congressman Karen Bass,
- 24:48Speaker 1: all right when we do that, We'll do that when
- 24:49Speaker 1: we come back to don't move, Congresswoman. That's right. It's
- 24:53Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. Morning. Everybody.
- 24:59Speaker 1: You cch Envy Angela, yee, Charlomagne the guy we are
- 25:02Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. We have a special guest on the
- 25:04Speaker 1: phone lines right now, Congresswoman Karen Bass. Welcome, Thank you,
- 25:11Speaker 1: Glad Beer. Let's talk about some things. Uh, miss bass Um,
- 25:15Speaker 1: you were the House lead on the George Floyd Justice
- 25:19Speaker 1: and Policing Act. A lot of people may not even
- 25:21Speaker 1: know you know that that there was an act. Can
- 25:23Speaker 1: you walk us through a little bit of that bill
- 25:25Speaker 1: and tell us what's in it? Sure, it does several things.
- 25:28Speaker 1: One of the problems that we've always had in our
- 25:31Speaker 1: community is that it is hard to fire a police officer,
- 25:34Speaker 1: to sewer police officer, or to prostitute a police officer.
- 25:38Speaker 1: So we made those corrections. Like when that criminal was
- 25:41Speaker 1: killing George Floyd, everybody watched him die he was looking
- 25:46Speaker 1: at the camera, and he was looking at the camera,
- 25:48Speaker 1: and he had his hands in his pocket because he
- 25:50Speaker 1: didn't give it to him, because he felt he had
- 25:53Speaker 1: complete impunity. Why because police officers basically have immunity. It's
- 25:58Speaker 1: called qualified immunity. The other thing is is that it's
- 26:02Speaker 1: almost impossible to prosecute a police officer, which is why
- 26:05Speaker 1: you see them occasionally get arrested, but then they don't
- 26:08Speaker 1: get prosecuted. Right, Well, they don't get prosecuted because the
- 26:11Speaker 1: standard is you have to say that they willfully I mean,
- 26:14Speaker 1: you know what was in their mind, They willfully intended
- 26:17Speaker 1: to kill somebody. Well, we lowered that standard to say reckless.
- 26:21Speaker 1: That doesn't matter whether you intended to kill somebody or not,
- 26:24Speaker 1: if you're reckless. And so that's one part of the bill.
- 26:27Speaker 1: The other part of the bill is to have a
- 26:30Speaker 1: registry where if you're a bad officer, you shouldn't be
- 26:33Speaker 1: able to go to another department, because that's what happens,
- 26:37Speaker 1: you go from department to department. I mean Tamere Rice,
- 26:41Speaker 1: twelve year old child was killed within second when that
- 26:45Speaker 1: officer got out of the car. Well, he had just
- 26:48Speaker 1: been fired from a nearby department because they thought he
- 26:51Speaker 1: was unstable and they thought he had a propensity for violence,
- 26:54Speaker 1: so he lied and the police chief that hired him
- 26:57Speaker 1: didn't know that. So we want to have a man
- 27:00Speaker 1: national registry where bad officers could be documented and then
- 27:04Speaker 1: they wouldn't be hired. Rihanna Taylor died because of that
- 27:08Speaker 1: no knock warrant. Right, the guy they were looking for
- 27:11Speaker 1: was already in jail. So we banned no knock warrant.
- 27:15Speaker 1: We banned chokehold. So the other thing that we do
- 27:19Speaker 1: is we try to raise the standards of what it
- 27:23Speaker 1: takes to be a police officer. So why is it
- 27:25Speaker 1: that the person that does your hair have to have
- 27:28Speaker 1: a license and be accredited and there's some national standards,
- 27:32Speaker 1: but the guy that carries the gun doesn't have to
- 27:35Speaker 1: have any standards at all, which is why a chokehold
- 27:37Speaker 1: is illegal in one area and legal in another area.
- 27:40Speaker 1: So banning chokeholds but also raising the standards so that
- 27:44Speaker 1: police departments have to be accredited. So another part of
- 27:49Speaker 1: the bill that I like on one of the pieces
- 27:51Speaker 1: that I like the best is the piece that provides
- 27:54Speaker 1: glants for communities to re envision what public safety is
- 27:59Speaker 1: like their community. That kind of like defunding the police.
- 28:03Speaker 1: Where you talking about defunding the police because we're taking
- 28:05Speaker 1: money to other programs. So what are your thoughts on that.
- 28:08Speaker 1: I guess you're about to break that down. Yeah, let
- 28:10Speaker 1: me break that down in a second. The grants are
- 28:14Speaker 1: not taking away. That's new money. So that's new money
- 28:17Speaker 1: that a community could apply for that goes to community
- 28:20Speaker 1: based organization so they could look in their communities and say, well,
- 28:24Speaker 1: what do our communities need to be safe? So, um,
- 28:28Speaker 1: what I think I mean? I say it a little different.
- 28:30Speaker 1: I say, instead of saying defund the police, I say
- 28:34Speaker 1: refund the community. Because the fact of the matter is,
- 28:38Speaker 1: And I started working on this thirty years ago in
- 28:40Speaker 1: South central I started an organization at the height of
- 28:43Speaker 1: the crack cocaine crisis and the crypts and the bloods.
- 28:47Speaker 1: We had a thousand homicides that year in LA and
- 28:50Speaker 1: I started the organization because, in my opinion, crap was
- 28:54Speaker 1: a health issue, and it was an economic issue, because
- 28:57Speaker 1: that's why people were trafficking because all of the good
- 29:00Speaker 1: jobs had gone away, and it was a social issue.
- 29:04Speaker 1: So I'm round about thirty years ago we started criminalizing
- 29:08Speaker 1: health issues and economic issues. Why, because we cut money
- 29:13Speaker 1: from cities, we cut money from programs, we cut money
- 29:17Speaker 1: from drug treatment, and so we need to restore that.
- 29:21Speaker 1: So what has happened in our country is we have
- 29:25Speaker 1: taken funding away from communities where we have no problem,
- 29:29Speaker 1: putting all the money in police jails, in prisons, and
- 29:33Speaker 1: then when society has problems like mental illness, we criminalized it.
- 29:38Speaker 1: So I'm not saying that if somebody is mental ill
- 29:42Speaker 1: and they're violent, you know, you send an social worker.
- 29:46Speaker 1: But what I say is is that if you treat
- 29:48Speaker 1: it the person to begin with, they wouldn't have been
- 29:50Speaker 1: destabilized and become violent. But years before, actually the nineties,
- 29:56Speaker 1: we had the bright idea of closing mental hospitals. That
- 30:00Speaker 1: was a good idea because the mental hospitals were really horrible.
- 30:03Speaker 1: But we had made a commitment that we would build
- 30:07Speaker 1: community based mental health centers and we never did that.
- 30:10Speaker 1: So we just shut down the hospitals and threw people
- 30:15Speaker 1: out on the street. And so in La for example,
- 30:18Speaker 1: in La City, on any given night, we have forty
- 30:21Speaker 1: thousand people sleeping on the street. Now, I'm obviously not
- 30:24Speaker 1: all of them are mentally ill. A mental illness is
- 30:27Speaker 1: a percentage. The main reason people are on the street
- 30:30Speaker 1: is because la is very expensive to live in and
- 30:32Speaker 1: they can't afford housing. And by the way, because people's
- 30:36Speaker 1: unemployment insurance is not going to be continued today, you're
- 30:40Speaker 1: going to have massive evictions. Also because in addition to
- 30:43Speaker 1: the unemployment insurance with COVID, we also had a moratorium
- 30:47Speaker 1: on evictions and we were providing rental assistance. So once
- 30:51Speaker 1: again we allow a social and an economic problem to
- 30:55Speaker 1: get out of control. Now, what do you think is
- 30:57Speaker 1: going to happen the other thing? You got me on
- 31:02Speaker 1: my soap pots because the other thing that was driving
- 31:06Speaker 1: the other thing that was driving me crazy about COVID
- 31:09Speaker 1: was prison. So I've worked on criminal justice reform for
- 31:13Speaker 1: several decades, number one, trying to prevent three strikes and
- 31:17Speaker 1: a number of laws that were being passed. But here
- 31:20Speaker 1: you have everybody seemed to understand nursing homes, but nobody
- 31:24Speaker 1: understood prisons. So people are going to die and not
- 31:28Speaker 1: going to die, they have been dying in prison. So
- 31:32Speaker 1: what we did in the Congressional Black Caucus, we did
- 31:34Speaker 1: a series of town halls with people whose family members
- 31:38Speaker 1: were incarcerated to talk about the issue. And so then
- 31:42Speaker 1: we put in one of the bills for the buell
- 31:45Speaker 1: of prisons to let people out. So you know, of
- 31:47Speaker 1: course they're coming up with reasons not to let people out.
- 31:50Speaker 1: Now they let Michael Flynn out, not Michael Flint, Michael
- 31:53Speaker 1: Cohen out and say he had some health reason. Now
- 31:56Speaker 1: that guy is not hardly has a health issue, right,
- 31:59Speaker 1: So we been working on individual cases and getting people out.
- 32:04Speaker 1: But here's my concern. I don't want people to just
- 32:07Speaker 1: come out when they've been in a prison, they're liable
- 32:11Speaker 1: to have been exposed to COVID, and then you're going
- 32:14Speaker 1: to send them home to the zip codes that have
- 32:17Speaker 1: the disproportionate death rate. So what we're arguing for is
- 32:21Speaker 1: test them before they leave, treat them before they leave
- 32:25Speaker 1: if they have COVID, isolate them for a number of
- 32:29Speaker 1: weeks before they get out so we can be sure
- 32:32Speaker 1: they're COVID free. So I'm sorry. Now I want to
- 32:37Speaker 1: salute you because you took one question about police reform
- 32:40Speaker 1: and cover everything in the ecosystem reform everything we have
- 32:48Speaker 1: more with Congresswoman Caring Bass. When we come back, don't move.
- 32:51Speaker 1: It's the breakfast club, Go morning. If you cording, everybody
- 32:53Speaker 1: is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are
- 32:57Speaker 1: the breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Congresswoman Karen
- 33:01Speaker 1: bass Ye now a Karen Bass. I wanted to talk
- 33:04Speaker 1: to you also, obviously we know by now that you
- 33:06Speaker 1: are a potential VP pick for a Joe Biden, and
- 33:10Speaker 1: let's talk about your activism and how we've gotten to
- 33:12Speaker 1: this point where you are here today, because I know
- 33:14Speaker 1: you didn't want to start off even doing politics when
- 33:17Speaker 1: you were younger. You are more of a community activist.
- 33:19Speaker 1: So I just want to talk about the time period
- 33:21Speaker 1: that we're in, you being a potential VP, and why
- 33:25Speaker 1: you think you would be a good pick. Well, a
- 33:27Speaker 1: couple of things I beg I, by the way, if
- 33:30Speaker 1: you politics differently, so to me, all of what I
- 33:33Speaker 1: was doing since I was a kid with politics, I
- 33:37Speaker 1: think that elected office is just one branch, that's all.
- 33:41Speaker 1: So my work in the community, the issues I was
- 33:43Speaker 1: working on are the same issues I'm working on insight
- 33:47Speaker 1: of Congress. And so I think because of the historical
- 33:51Speaker 1: period we're in where we have had a president who
- 33:55Speaker 1: has been openly racist for three and a half years,
- 33:58Speaker 1: has tried to do everything he could to divide us.
- 34:01Speaker 1: To me, with George Floyd and policing on the table,
- 34:06Speaker 1: it's also raised the issue for the first time that
- 34:09Speaker 1: I can remember, where people are talking about systemic racism.
- 34:12Speaker 1: I mean, we were talking about decades and it was
- 34:14Speaker 1: something radical, but now people are actively talking about it.
- 34:18Speaker 1: And so I think that my years of activism, which
- 34:22Speaker 1: has been several decades now, my years of activism in
- 34:26Speaker 1: this particular historical moment could allow me to be the branch,
- 34:31Speaker 1: the bridge to the activism that is happening in the
- 34:35Speaker 1: streets that could help bring us together. In addition, I
- 34:39Speaker 1: think because of my years of activism and I'm just
- 34:44Speaker 1: dead set on getting stuff done, I also have been
- 34:48Speaker 1: able to work with Republicans, some of the most conservative,
- 34:51Speaker 1: some of the most flag waving Trumpsters, if we are
- 34:55Speaker 1: working on an issue that's helping our people. Because one
- 34:58Speaker 1: of the other issues I work on is the foss
- 35:00Speaker 1: care issue, which to me is the driver for the
- 35:03Speaker 1: criminal justice system, because when we throw these kids to
- 35:06Speaker 1: the curb when they're eighteen, so many of them wind
- 35:09Speaker 1: up incarcerated. And I work with Republicans on that issue.
- 35:12Speaker 1: I'm working with Republicans on policing right now. So VP,
- 35:17Speaker 1: to me, it doesn't matter. What matters to me is
- 35:20Speaker 1: that I believe this election is literally a question of
- 35:24Speaker 1: life and death because we are dying, and so I'm
- 35:28Speaker 1: willing to do whatever it takes, in whatever role, because
- 35:32Speaker 1: I don't want our people to keep dying. And four
- 35:34Speaker 1: more years of this we will be fundamentally changed. I mean,
- 35:38Speaker 1: we're already changed as a country. But this dude is
- 35:42Speaker 1: using the playbook from George Wallace in the nineteen sixties.
- 35:46Speaker 1: He's running that same kind of campaign, and I just
- 35:50Speaker 1: feel our lives are at risk on so many levels,
- 35:53Speaker 1: whether it's COVID or whether it's right wing terrorism. I
- 35:57Speaker 1: steel were at risk this bass. You just say it
- 36:01Speaker 1: doesn't matter to you if you become vice president. Do
- 36:04Speaker 1: you really mean that, Well, it doesn't matter to me
- 36:07Speaker 1: what role I'm asked to serve in. You know, you
- 36:13Speaker 1: know I can't. I can't go into much about the
- 36:16Speaker 1: vice president thing. But I have always focused on the
- 36:20Speaker 1: work period. I didn't set out to be an elected official,
- 36:25Speaker 1: otherwise I probably would have done some things very different
- 36:28Speaker 1: in my life. My life has been devoted to fighting
- 36:31Speaker 1: for social and economic justice. Since I was a kid,
- 36:34Speaker 1: and that journey has led me in many different directions.
- 36:37Speaker 1: I just happen to be sitting on the inside of
- 36:40Speaker 1: this institution now, But if I wasn't on the inside
- 36:42Speaker 1: of this institution, I'd be right up there on the
- 36:45Speaker 1: streets doing the same thing I've been doing for decades. Also,
- 36:49Speaker 1: just along those lines, though, just now that your name
- 36:51Speaker 1: has come up, right, I see a lot of the
- 36:54Speaker 1: Republicans have been attacking you and questioning your credibility on
- 36:57Speaker 1: things and questioning things that you've done in the past
- 37:00Speaker 1: as which has to be different for you because you've
- 37:02Speaker 1: been working so diligently all these decades, like you said,
- 37:05Speaker 1: for our community. But now there's all these attacks. So
- 37:08Speaker 1: what has that been like for you? And what are
- 37:10Speaker 1: some of the things that you would like to clear
- 37:11Speaker 1: up that our narratives that are being put out there. Oh,
- 37:15Speaker 1: I used to being attacked. There's nothing new about that.
- 37:20Speaker 1: If you challenge the system, as I did as a teenager,
- 37:24Speaker 1: if you challenge the system, you're gonna pay for it,
- 37:27Speaker 1: and they're going to be consequences. So I went through
- 37:30Speaker 1: a number of years, which you know, I mean, I've
- 37:32Speaker 1: said this a lot of places But when I went
- 37:34Speaker 1: to George Floyd's memorial and I looked up and I
- 37:37Speaker 1: saw the year he was born, nineteen seventy three. That
- 37:40Speaker 1: was forty seven years ago. That was when I first
- 37:43Speaker 1: started working on police abuse. Why because I was undergoing
- 37:48Speaker 1: tremendous police harassment. You guys know co Intel pro well,
- 37:52Speaker 1: co Intel pro Junior was done by our chief of Police,
- 37:57Speaker 1: Daryl Gates, who harassed us for years. So I'm used
- 38:02Speaker 1: to attacks. That doesn't bother me. I keep my eyes
- 38:05Speaker 1: on the prize. My life has been devoted to fighting
- 38:08Speaker 1: for people, and I'll take what compass. How important is
- 38:12Speaker 1: it to you that Vice President Biden picks a black woman,
- 38:16Speaker 1: whether it's you or not. I would obviously love to
- 38:19Speaker 1: see that happen, and I think that the African American
- 38:23Speaker 1: women that are under consideration are all dynamite and would
- 38:27Speaker 1: all be fantastic. I just think, you know, for all
- 38:31Speaker 1: of the years that black women have held up the party,
- 38:35Speaker 1: the idea of having a black woman on the ticket
- 38:39Speaker 1: sends the right message. Now, at the end of the day,
- 38:42Speaker 1: we got to get rid of the sucker, and I
- 38:44Speaker 1: want to see that happen first and foremost. But I
- 38:48Speaker 1: think if there was a black woman on the ticket,
- 38:50Speaker 1: I think that would help galvanize the black community. I
- 38:54Speaker 1: think that would be very excited. A think it's a will. Okay,
- 39:00Speaker 1: what did you think about the political article, the political
- 39:03Speaker 1: article that called you the anti Kamala because I've never
- 39:06Speaker 1: seen him do that with white women. I've never seen
- 39:08Speaker 1: Amy klob y'all described as the anti Elizabeth. What do
- 39:11Speaker 1: you think well that, I mean, my response was, why
- 39:14Speaker 1: are you comparing me with her? Why don't you compare
- 39:16Speaker 1: Whitman with Warren? So you might have seen it. Right
- 39:19Speaker 1: after I woke up and saw that article. We tweeted
- 39:23Speaker 1: out right away, don't do that. Kamala Harris as my
- 39:26Speaker 1: friend were from the same state. When she was the
- 39:28Speaker 1: DA of San Francisco, I was the Speaker of the
- 39:31Speaker 1: House in California. We have worked together on criminal justice
- 39:34Speaker 1: reform and a lot of issues. And her candidacy for
- 39:38Speaker 1: president was historic. I mean, you had Serviceisholm and that
- 39:43Speaker 1: was viewed, you know, during those years as kind of
- 39:45Speaker 1: a symbolic campaign. Her campaign was not a symbolic campaign.
- 39:50Speaker 1: Her campaign was a righteous campaign. She was a viable
- 39:53Speaker 1: candidate and she made history. Was that candidacy and so
- 39:58Speaker 1: don't call me the end Tay. Kamala and I said
- 40:02Speaker 1: that the two of us talked about it the other day.
- 40:05Speaker 1: Now I want to ask you about Joe Biden also,
- 40:07Speaker 1: he's had seven hold on. Yeah, you said you and
- 40:09Speaker 1: Kamala spoke about that the other day. How was that conversation?
- 40:11Speaker 1: It was good, she said, We ain't doing that. We
- 40:14Speaker 1: actually spoke at mister Lewis's memorial service on the hell
- 40:19Speaker 1: all right, we got more with Karen Bass coming up, man,
- 40:22Speaker 1: but listen if anybody saw Blackest King this weekend on
- 40:25Speaker 1: Disney Plus Man dropping the Clues BOMX with Beyonce Black
- 40:28Speaker 1: is King, and I have something to say. I have
- 40:32Speaker 1: to say that there's no reason that Brown Skin and
- 40:34Speaker 1: Girls isn't the number one song at hip hop and
- 40:36Speaker 1: R and B radio. It's kind of embarrassing that it isn't.
- 40:39Speaker 1: People really slept on this record when the Lion Kings
- 40:42Speaker 1: soundtrack came out last year. But now that The Blackest
- 40:45Speaker 1: King is out and we have a visual for this song,
- 40:46Speaker 1: there's no reason for it not to be number one
- 40:49Speaker 1: at hip hop and R and B radio. This song
- 40:51Speaker 1: makes young black girls feel good. I know, it makes
- 40:54Speaker 1: my daughters feel good. All right, So let's listen to
- 40:56Speaker 1: Brown Skin Girl with Wiz Kid and Saint John and
- 41:00Speaker 1: Blue Ivy Wanting. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne
- 41:10Speaker 1: the Guy, we are the breakfast Club. We're still kicking
- 41:13Speaker 1: in with Congresswoman Karen Bass Ye. Now, I wanted to
- 41:16Speaker 1: ask you about Joe Biden. He's made some missteps on
- 41:18Speaker 1: his campaign so far. So what are some things that
- 41:21Speaker 1: you think he needs to do besides his VP pick
- 41:24Speaker 1: to make sure that people are our people are supporting
- 41:27Speaker 1: Joe Biden more and an energized to go out and
- 41:30Speaker 1: vote for him, not just because he's not Trump. Yeah.
- 41:33Speaker 1: You know, one of the things that I think is
- 41:35Speaker 1: so challenging is the way we have to do this now,
- 41:39Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Because see, I think one
- 41:41Speaker 1: of the things about Biden that is really important in
- 41:45Speaker 1: this time period. I truly believe that he is authentic,
- 41:49Speaker 1: that he cares about people. I really do believe that.
- 41:52Speaker 1: And I think that authenticity is going to be extremely
- 41:57Speaker 1: difficult on a screen. And so I am hoping that
- 42:01Speaker 1: in some kind of way we can figure out how
- 42:05Speaker 1: to have that human interaction but have it safely. And
- 42:09Speaker 1: then I think him, you know, committing to the policies
- 42:12Speaker 1: that he's talking about now that are policies that are
- 42:17Speaker 1: really important for our folks, and the number one policy,
- 42:21Speaker 1: the number one thing has to be COVID. We can't
- 42:24Speaker 1: get a hold of the economy. And I think him
- 42:27Speaker 1: going out and talking about how he's going to be
- 42:30Speaker 1: able to prevent people from dying. And one of the
- 42:33Speaker 1: things that I think he can and should talk about
- 42:37Speaker 1: is Ebola, because Ebola could have been a horrific pandemic
- 42:45Speaker 1: and Obama and Biden stop that. Why did they stop
- 42:49Speaker 1: it and how did they stop it? It's because we
- 42:51Speaker 1: were respected around the world at that time and they
- 42:55Speaker 1: were able to galvanize the world to stop it. And
- 43:00Speaker 1: I didn't even spread in Africa. And I think he
- 43:02Speaker 1: could use that as an example of what he participated
- 43:05Speaker 1: in and how he could use some of those same
- 43:08Speaker 1: strategies to get a handle on COVID. Now, Kanye West,
- 43:13Speaker 1: does he scared you at all? Oh? Shout out with
- 43:16Speaker 1: him running we're doing We're not doing that. We're not
- 43:18Speaker 1: doing that, We're not question. I have a question, now,
- 43:21Speaker 1: do you think with him doing that that that what's
- 43:24Speaker 1: what's the word I'm looking for. It makes things difficult
- 43:25Speaker 1: for people out there because some people might really say, Okay,
- 43:28Speaker 1: I'm going to vote for him. Do you find that
- 43:29Speaker 1: being difficult? And in distraction, that's the word I'm looking for. No,
- 43:33Speaker 1: And for a very practical reason, it's kind of late
- 43:37Speaker 1: to get on the ballot. Uh, that's not even real. Listen,
- 43:42Speaker 1: as a black person, a black woman, when you hear
- 43:45Speaker 1: things like Senator Harris has no remorse for what she
- 43:48Speaker 1: did to Joe Biden in the debate, or she's not loyal,
- 43:52Speaker 1: she's she's too ambitious, she really wants to be president.
- 43:55Speaker 1: What do you what do you think that's cold for? Oh? Well,
- 43:57Speaker 1: I mean that's aside from race show code, it's gender code.
- 44:01Speaker 1: I mean we both experienced that. I remember when she
- 44:04Speaker 1: was DA in San Francisco and I was speaker. You know,
- 44:07Speaker 1: people wondered whether or not I would have the capacity
- 44:10Speaker 1: to deal with it. And I remember her being attacked
- 44:13Speaker 1: because she had a specific position on the death penalty,
- 44:17Speaker 1: and it was like five minutes after she got elected.
- 44:20Speaker 1: They were trying to go after her because a police
- 44:23Speaker 1: officer got killed and she would not call for the
- 44:27Speaker 1: death of it. So then while she's weak, she's a woman,
- 44:31Speaker 1: you know, So I think it's it's a racial and
- 44:33Speaker 1: gender code. I think it's primarily gender. But I think,
- 44:37Speaker 1: you know, the two of us are very used to that.
- 44:40Speaker 1: I think we you know, up, yeah, why does why
- 44:44Speaker 1: does she have to have remorse? Like I don't understand
- 44:46Speaker 1: why people are upset about her calling out Biden's record,
- 44:50Speaker 1: Like if we're if we're going against Trump, shouldn't we
- 44:53Speaker 1: want somebody who's not afraid to stayand up the old
- 44:54Speaker 1: white man? Oh? Absolutely? And you know, I don't know,
- 44:59Speaker 1: I think that. I think Kamala has been doing just fine.
- 45:03Speaker 1: I think she needs to keep doing what she's doing.
- 45:06Speaker 1: Are you concerned about the voting process and voter suppression
- 45:09Speaker 1: on what's going to happen in the upcoming election and
- 45:11Speaker 1: what can we do? Yes, I'm terrified about it. And
- 45:14Speaker 1: then let me tell you why, because now, I mean,
- 45:18Speaker 1: they've always done voter suppression, right, but now they're making
- 45:21Speaker 1: people risk their lives to vote. I mean, what happened
- 45:24Speaker 1: in Wisconsin. People went out, they made them line up,
- 45:29Speaker 1: and fifty people caught COVID. So now one of the
- 45:32Speaker 1: things that the Republicans have always used is mail in voting.
- 45:36Speaker 1: That's always been their strategy. Our stam energy has been doorknocking.
- 45:40Speaker 1: So now that we want to use mail and vote
- 45:43Speaker 1: to keep people faced, people should be able to vote
- 45:45Speaker 1: from home. Now they don't want to have it happened.
- 45:48Speaker 1: So the Black Caucus we did this posting where we
- 45:51Speaker 1: said the ultimate voter suppression and we had a picture
- 45:54Speaker 1: of a coffin because we don't know how many of
- 45:57Speaker 1: those hundred and fifty four thousand are black, brown, right,
- 46:01Speaker 1: but they were all a voting age. And so I
- 46:05Speaker 1: worry that they're going to make people risk their lives
- 46:08Speaker 1: in order to vote. And that's what we have to
- 46:11Speaker 1: that's what we have to fight. But here's the thing.
- 46:14Speaker 1: When we organize, when we get mad because they don't
- 46:17Speaker 1: want us to vote, we tend to want to vote more.
- 46:20Speaker 1: When we organized, we went whose idea was it to
- 46:24Speaker 1: let all those white people dressed like they was going
- 46:26Speaker 1: to the black panther from men like why did y'all
- 46:28Speaker 1: have white condo on the hill can take off and
- 46:31Speaker 1: taking a knee? That was your idea? Yeah? Why you know?
- 46:37Speaker 1: Last year in the four hundredth anniversary of our arrival here,
- 46:43Speaker 1: we took a trip to Africa. Speaker Pelosi led that trip.
- 46:47Speaker 1: The President of Ghana gave her Kente. What we have
- 46:51Speaker 1: been doing in the Black Caucus for the last several
- 46:53Speaker 1: years is we have Warren Kente at different ceremonial events.
- 47:00Speaker 1: And so for us to wear Kente at a historic
- 47:04Speaker 1: introduction of a policing bill that has never happened before,
- 47:09Speaker 1: a bill that was composed of bills that the Black
- 47:12Speaker 1: Caucus members had been working on for years, we wore Kente.
- 47:18Speaker 1: She wore hers. She had been given it by the
- 47:21Speaker 1: President of Ghana. Now, it was a little issue when
- 47:25Speaker 1: the Black Caucus members had it and then the white
- 47:29Speaker 1: members that were there in solidarity, it was kind of
- 47:31Speaker 1: hard to say, well, you can't have it. And so
- 47:34Speaker 1: that's why that happened. Now, I know it blew up
- 47:36Speaker 1: on Black Twitter, and I know we got a donkey.
- 47:40Speaker 1: You gave me a donkey. I saw that dunkey. It
- 47:43Speaker 1: was more so for White Kanda, because I think the
- 47:45Speaker 1: critique for me was I I didn't care about the symbolism.
- 47:48Speaker 1: I cared more about the substance of a bill y'all
- 47:50Speaker 1: were passing. You know, that's that's what we want. We want.
- 47:53Speaker 1: We want actual legislation. I don't care about the song
- 47:56Speaker 1: and the dancing, right, but listen, if I do something
- 47:59Speaker 1: that's the problem, I take responsibility. And I know that
- 48:03Speaker 1: people saw that as a problem. I didn't. I mean,
- 48:06Speaker 1: Africa is one of the main reasons why I'm here.
- 48:09Speaker 1: I care the Africa Subcommittee. One of my big focuses,
- 48:13Speaker 1: aside from dealing with the issues of black people here,
- 48:17Speaker 1: is dealing with our relationship on the continent. And one
- 48:20Speaker 1: thing that I've tried to do is to try to
- 48:22Speaker 1: build our ties and to try to educate people about
- 48:26Speaker 1: US Africa relations. So when it is a memorial service,
- 48:31Speaker 1: like for Elijah Cummings, when we go to the State
- 48:34Speaker 1: of the Union to kind of, you know, make our
- 48:37Speaker 1: point across to the president that referred to African countries
- 48:40Speaker 1: as show countries. We display our African roots with pride,
- 48:45Speaker 1: and that's what that was about it. Because it probably
- 48:47Speaker 1: pisses them off. I get it. So when you're gonna
- 48:49Speaker 1: teach Nancy Pelosi and chuf Shuma how to do the
- 48:51Speaker 1: electric flot, you know Nancy Pelosi knows how to do
- 48:57Speaker 1: the electric flat. I don't believe now you on too far.
- 49:00Speaker 1: I don't believe when had she done your electric slide?
- 49:04Speaker 1: When every every time, every time we have a caucus retreat,
- 49:08Speaker 1: but on Instagram or it didn't happen. But you know
- 49:11Speaker 1: instagram ar didn't happen. I'm gonna tell her that. I'm
- 49:14Speaker 1: gonna tell her we gonna take a picture of her
- 49:16Speaker 1: the next time. What about the chat chat slide though
- 49:22Speaker 1: I don't know about that, but I know about the
- 49:24Speaker 1: electric because I've seen it. What about the crip walk
- 49:28Speaker 1: you from Callie? Now? What about you? I didn't say
- 49:37Speaker 1: I knew how to do it? You know, I know
- 49:41Speaker 1: what it is. Well, great talking to you, Miss Bass.
- 49:44Speaker 1: And you know if you become the vice president, I
- 49:46Speaker 1: wouldn't I don't think I would be mad at that
- 49:48Speaker 1: at all. Thank you for having me on. I wanted
- 49:52Speaker 1: to do this show for a long time, so that
- 49:57Speaker 1: you have been doing and we'll continue to do so.
- 49:59Speaker 1: Thank you. All right, it's Congresswoman Karon Bass is the

- 50:26Speaker 1: good news for Nicki Minaj and her husband Kenneth Petty.
- 50:29Speaker 1: He does have permission to be there for the baby's birth.
- 50:33Speaker 1: As you know, he had to submit legal documents and
- 50:35Speaker 1: he has to judge to modify the terms of his
- 50:37Speaker 1: pre trial release conditions. He wanted to make sure that
- 50:39Speaker 1: he could travel with Nikki on business as her manager
- 50:42Speaker 1: and also be there when the baby is born. So
- 50:45Speaker 1: according to the documents, now he will have that permission,
- 50:49Speaker 1: he can be in the room when she gives birth.
- 50:52Speaker 1: The judge did grant his request to tweak his pre
- 50:55Speaker 1: trial release conditions so that he can travel. That's right.
- 50:58Speaker 1: I'm happy for him because I'm glad to traveling and
- 51:01Speaker 1: nothing like being in the delivery room when when you're

- 52:17Speaker 1: tribute to her boyfriend. She opened up about how he's
- 52:20Speaker 1: been by her side no matter what is going on
- 52:22Speaker 1: in her life. She said, I came here just to
- 52:23Speaker 1: say this, and then I'm logging off. If you have
- 52:25Speaker 1: ever been in recovery or treatment, you know that you
- 52:28Speaker 1: reflect on a lot of things. So I couldn't let

- 52:55Speaker 1: helping when I've been weak. You have had my entire back.
- 52:58Speaker 1: I couldn't imagine what life would be like if you
- 53:00Speaker 1: weren't by my side. Thank God I'm here and thank
- 53:02Speaker 1: God for you. Yeah. I'm glad you're okay, Tamara, and
- 53:05Speaker 1: I'm glad that you had a support system around you
- 53:07Speaker 1: like that brother to hold you down. So salute to you,
- 53:10Speaker 1: sending you nothing but love, light and positive energy. Now.
- 53:14Speaker 1: We TV had also released a statement saying that they
- 53:17Speaker 1: are letting her go and they want her to focus
- 53:20Speaker 1: on her mental well being, and they said, we wish
- 53:23Speaker 1: her nothing but the best that she focuses on her
- 53:25Speaker 1: health and recovery. You have what is clearly a difficult
- 53:27Speaker 1: and personal time. We will work with her representatives to
- 53:30Speaker 1: honor her request to end off you to work for
- 53:32Speaker 1: the network. Well, she responded, lies. No one has talked
- 53:35Speaker 1: to a lawyer or to me, sent a flower or card,
- 53:37Speaker 1: text to me or nan. This is the abuse and
- 53:40Speaker 1: lies I am talking about. This is not helping my
- 53:42Speaker 1: mental state. They just won't stop until they see me
- 53:45Speaker 1: out of my mind or dead. Why would we TV
- 53:48Speaker 1: even post something like that at the time like this,
- 53:50Speaker 1: that's tone deaf as hell, you know, saying that is
- 53:53Speaker 1: a conversation that they should be having with the lawyers
- 53:55Speaker 1: behind the scene. And when the announced me is to
- 53:57Speaker 1: be made that she's parting ways, let Tamar make not
- 54:00Speaker 1: you the hell's wrong with y'all? All right? And Kim
- 54:03Speaker 1: Kardashian is shutting down rumors that she gave Kanye an
- 54:05Speaker 1: ultimatum over their marriage. A lot of people are saying
- 54:09Speaker 1: that she went to go visit him, confronted him. We
- 54:11Speaker 1: saw the pictures of her crying in the car. She
- 54:14Speaker 1: said none of this is true, except that this is
- 54:16Speaker 1: obviously a difficult time, so she's saying that's not true.
- 54:19Speaker 1: She's not giving any ultimatums. All right. In Takashi six
- 54:23Speaker 1: nine is free and out and about. He was actually
- 54:25Speaker 1: in Manhattan and Midtown eating some ice cream, walking around.
- 54:28Speaker 1: Here's what he said on video. Why did I choose
- 54:30Speaker 1: to cooperate a snitch? If I'm going to live my
- 54:33Speaker 1: life and fit, that's the choice I made. Teat my life.
- 54:36Speaker 1: I'm not gonna snitch, come home and I don't know
- 54:40Speaker 1: rock and be depressed. People expect me to be depressed.
- 54:43Speaker 1: People expect me up to just stop what other I'm
- 54:46Speaker 1: doing and you walking. People always say, yo, six nine
- 54:50Speaker 1: got security with him, what's the problem with security now?
- 54:53Speaker 1: In addition to that, his girlfriend has announced that she's
- 54:56Speaker 1: pregnant Jade. She put on pregnant here by I am
- 55:00Speaker 1: Jonathan outfit posh by V so I thought black was dope, y'all. See,
- 55:07Speaker 1: just keeping y'all updated. And one thing that broke the
- 55:11Speaker 1: one thing in last relationship story. I want to give
- 55:13Speaker 1: this morning one thing that broke the net over the weekend,
- 55:16Speaker 1: Lenny Kravitz wishing Jason Momoa a happy birthday. Now that
- 55:20Speaker 1: is Lisa Bonet's ex along with her her current husband, Mamoa.
- 55:25Speaker 1: And you know, everybody was going crazy when they saw
- 55:28Speaker 1: the picture of the two of them together and they
- 55:30Speaker 1: were saluting Lisa BONEI for having these two fine men
- 55:34Speaker 1: at Lisa bone is pretty fine herself, and so they
- 55:38Speaker 1: were saying, that is how it's done. I'm not you know,
- 55:40Speaker 1: I wasn't mad at that because you know what that
- 55:42Speaker 1: showed me. That showed me that women think just like men.
- 55:45Speaker 1: Because it's not like we don't salute guys who have,
- 55:48Speaker 1: you know, a nice resume? All right, When we see
- 55:51Speaker 1: certain guys and they've been with certain women, we salute
- 55:53Speaker 1: them like, wow, the job, So yeah, tote it. What
- 55:58Speaker 1: do you mean, keep going listening? Those are two good
- 56:02Speaker 1: looking in But my point is, okay, my point is, yes,
- 56:06Speaker 1: we do that the guys all the time. We salute
- 56:08Speaker 1: the comments of the world, and uh, who else got
- 56:12Speaker 1: a nice little resume that we've salute? Comment is definitely
- 56:14Speaker 1: always in the top of the listener, you know. But
- 56:16Speaker 1: I think it and deeper than that, the fact that
- 56:19Speaker 1: the two of them are in a picture together and
- 56:21Speaker 1: Lenny Kravitz is wishing him a happy forty first birthday.
- 56:24Speaker 1: It's really dope. It shows a blended family really getting
- 56:27Speaker 1: along and the respect they have for each other. When
- 56:30Speaker 1: you see Diddy with all all the mothers of his
- 56:33Speaker 1: children we salute Diddy, it was like, Wow, did he
- 56:35Speaker 1: really gotta put together? We do? Oh? Yes, I'd like
- 56:39Speaker 1: to see it go both ways. All right, Well I'm
- 56:41Speaker 1: angela yee and that is your rumor report, all right?
- 56:44Speaker 1: Than that's crazy that. I'd like to see how it
- 56:50Speaker 1: goes both ways. This guy looks at me all crazy
- 56:52Speaker 1: through the phone. Don't look at me through the phone
- 56:54Speaker 1: like that, bro, don't look at me through the phone.
- 56:58Speaker 1: I feel like I started to hear soldier boy in
- 57:00Speaker 1: Sam you play no no no through the phone or something.
- 57:05Speaker 1: She looked at me. I heard that, no no no, no, no,
- 57:08Speaker 1: no no no. He just called me your own guard.
- 57:13Speaker 1: He said, I like it both ways and just shot
- 57:15Speaker 1: me all right. So good. Yeah, that's too good looking man.
- 57:18Speaker 1: There you go. So you're giving your donkey too this morning, Charlemagne. Yeah,
- 57:22Speaker 1: I've been thinking about this all weekend. Man, Um, I
- 57:24Speaker 1: need Bill Clinton to come to the front of the congregation.
- 57:26Speaker 1: I'd like to have a word with him. This has
- 57:28Speaker 1: been on my mind all weekend. I think it's a
- 57:30Speaker 1: good teachable moment. So we will discuss four after the
- 57:32Speaker 1: hour while Bill Clinton is getting donkey of the day.
- 57:35Speaker 1: Can't disrespect our ancestors, all right, we'll get into that
- 57:38Speaker 1: next keep it lock this to breakfast cloakal Morners. Don't
- 57:41Speaker 1: be a dusty because right now you want some real
- 57:45Speaker 1: It's time for Donkey of the day. So if we
- 57:47Speaker 1: ever feel I need to be a donkey man with
- 57:49Speaker 1: the heat did she getting, please tell me I had
- 57:53Speaker 1: become donkey of the day to Breakfast Club bitch donkey
- 58:00Speaker 1: for Monday. August third goes to the forty second President
- 58:03Speaker 1: of the United States of America, Bill Clinton. Now, if
- 58:05Speaker 1: you saw the funeral for Representative John Lewis last week,
- 58:09Speaker 1: then you saw him eulogized by former President Bill Clinton.
- 58:13Speaker 1: He was one of three former presidents to eulogize the
- 58:15Speaker 1: great John Lewis. President Barack Obama and President George W.
- 58:18Speaker 1: Bush were the others. Well. During the eulogy, Bill Clinton
- 58:21Speaker 1: decided the reference when Congressman John Lewis lost his chairman
- 58:25Speaker 1: position in the Student Non Violent Coordinating Committee to a
- 58:29Speaker 1: great freedom fighter, A former black panther or philosopher, a
- 58:32Speaker 1: man who didn't believe in non violence. He believed in
- 58:35Speaker 1: black power. The late Kwame tour formerly and maybe most
- 58:39Speaker 1: commonly known as Stokely Carmichael. I can't lie. This has
- 58:42Speaker 1: been bothering me all weekend. Let's listen to what Bill
- 58:45Speaker 1: Clinton had to say about mister Carmichael. Just three years later,
- 58:50Speaker 1: he lost the leadership of Snick to Stock Carmichael because
- 58:55Speaker 1: he said, you know, I really it was a pretty
- 58:57Speaker 1: good job, Frank, guy that young and come from Troy, Alabama.
- 59:02Speaker 1: It must have been painful to lose. But he showed
- 59:05Speaker 1: as a young man there are some things that you
- 59:08Speaker 1: cannot do. Dang on to a position because if you
- 59:13Speaker 1: do them, you won't be who you are anymore. And
- 59:16Speaker 1: I say there were two or three years therefore the
- 59:21Speaker 1: movement went a little bit too far towards Stokely. But
- 59:26Speaker 1: in the end John Lewis prevailed the man. He's is
- 59:28Speaker 1: heavy on this one. In fact, this isn't even edible. Okay,
- 59:31Speaker 1: there's no salvaging this potato salad throw theway, just dumped
- 59:34Speaker 1: the whole thing into trash. Who in the hell let
- 59:37Speaker 1: Bill Clinton make the potato salad. In fact, that might
- 59:39Speaker 1: not even be manna's. That might be one of the
- 59:41Speaker 1: ingredients you used to make babies. Because Bill is a
- 59:43Speaker 1: white boy. Okay, but here's the thing. When it comes
- 59:46Speaker 1: to our great black leaders, black people who have stood
- 59:48Speaker 1: on the front lines against white supremacy in this country,
- 59:51Speaker 1: I don't give a damn about what a white person
- 59:54Speaker 1: thinks in regards on how they chose to fight. I
- 59:57Speaker 1: don't give a damn. If Bill Clinton appreciated congress Congressman
- 1:00:02Speaker 1: John Lewis's way of doing things over mister Stokely Carmichaels,
- 1:00:06Speaker 1: of course he would prefer Congressman John Lewis's over Stokely's.
- 1:00:10Speaker 1: It's simple. If you were gonna run down on someone, okay,
- 1:00:13Speaker 1: who would you run down on? The person that you
- 1:00:15Speaker 1: know is not going to fight you back, the person
- 1:00:17Speaker 1: who believes in peaceful, non violent protests. Are you gonna
- 1:00:20Speaker 1: run down on the person who's screaming black power and
- 1:00:23Speaker 1: letting you know you got guns? I got guns too, Okay.
- 1:00:26Speaker 1: It's simple math, baby. I'm sure you would choose the
- 1:00:28Speaker 1: path for least resistance, and that path would have been
- 1:00:31Speaker 1: through Congressman John Lewis see it's good trouble. And then
- 1:00:35Speaker 1: as those negroes got guns trouble, they didn't want trouble
- 1:00:38Speaker 1: with the negroes with guns. So of course Bill Clinton
- 1:00:40Speaker 1: and other white men I'm sure, wanted the civil rights
- 1:00:43Speaker 1: movement to go more John Lewis than stokely Carmichael. Okay,
- 1:00:47Speaker 1: but here's the thing. Don't pick those brothers against each other,
- 1:00:51Speaker 1: because they both were necessary. Mister Lewis's non violent strategy
- 1:00:56Speaker 1: was just as necessary as mister Karma's black power strategy.
- 1:00:59Speaker 1: I don't care what a person's method is as long
- 1:01:01Speaker 1: as the goal is the same. If the goal is
- 1:01:03Speaker 1: the liberation of black people, true equality for black people,
- 1:01:06Speaker 1: I don't care how we get there, and it's not
- 1:01:08Speaker 1: one path that's gonna get us there. Okay, so they
- 1:01:11Speaker 1: both were necessary, but of course white people would only
- 1:01:14Speaker 1: be comfortable with one, and it's not a coincidence that
- 1:01:16Speaker 1: they would choose the method that allows them to hit
- 1:01:19Speaker 1: and not get hit back. But both were necessary because
- 1:01:22Speaker 1: I believe in a mean inside outside game. And when
- 1:01:25Speaker 1: white folks don't want to deal with the radical brothers
- 1:01:27Speaker 1: and sisters on the outside, then they sit down with
- 1:01:30Speaker 1: the peaceful brothers and sisters on the inside, and the
- 1:01:33Speaker 1: hopes that they can make some deals with them, it
- 1:01:36Speaker 1: will calm down the more radical ones. Okay. Not to
- 1:01:38Speaker 1: mention it shouldn't matter who you, as a white man,
- 1:01:42Speaker 1: approve of more. You don't get to tell us how
- 1:01:45Speaker 1: to protest. You don't get to tell us how to
- 1:01:47Speaker 1: fight for our equal rights and civil liberties. What you
- 1:01:50Speaker 1: need to be asking yourself is why was there a
- 1:01:52Speaker 1: need for US civil rights movement to begin with? Imagine
- 1:01:57Speaker 1: looking down on the way stokeally called Michael. Did the
- 1:02:00Speaker 1: imagine judging stokely call Michael because he chose aggression over
- 1:02:05Speaker 1: non violence. Okay, while this country, this society literally is
- 1:02:10Speaker 1: as violent as it can possibly be. Two black people
- 1:02:16Speaker 1: to call Cassidy to judge, did you see what happened
- 1:02:19Speaker 1: to the honorable John Lewis on the Edmund Pettis Bridge.
- 1:02:22Speaker 1: Not to mention all the bombings of homes during that time,
- 1:02:26Speaker 1: the lynchings, the assassinations of our great black leaders. Oh
- 1:02:29Speaker 1: and not to mention the systemic racism, oppression, and marginalization.
- 1:02:33Speaker 1: Yesterday would have been James Baldwin's ninety six born day.
- 1:02:36Speaker 1: So I was watching, you know, I am not your
- 1:02:38Speaker 1: Negro for a million of time. I don't know if
- 1:02:40Speaker 1: you've seen it, Bill, but you should watch it. It's
- 1:02:42Speaker 1: James Baldwin's take on three different murders, three different freedom fighters,
- 1:02:48Speaker 1: Mega Evans, Malcolm X, and Martin Luther King Jr. All
- 1:02:50Speaker 1: of them got clapped, all of them got killed. So
- 1:02:53Speaker 1: who gives a damn what method you like? Because the
- 1:02:56Speaker 1: truth is, all white people back then was on go
- 1:03:00Speaker 1: all right. It didn't matter if you was non violent
- 1:03:03Speaker 1: or with the smoke. If you were fighting for the
- 1:03:04Speaker 1: liberation of black people, they wanted you dad period. They
- 1:03:09Speaker 1: just prefer that when they nuck, you don't buck, because
- 1:03:12Speaker 1: then that decreases the casualties on their side. Okay, they
- 1:03:16Speaker 1: don't give a damn about your black ass. Listen, black people,
- 1:03:19Speaker 1: all oppressed people that can hear my voice. Don't ever
- 1:03:22Speaker 1: let someone who doesn't understand your struggle tell you how
- 1:03:25Speaker 1: to fight. Don't ever let your oppressor tell you what
- 1:03:29Speaker 1: they approve of when it comes to your liberation, because
- 1:03:33Speaker 1: we wouldn't have even needed a civil rights movement to
- 1:03:35Speaker 1: begin with if America really was the land of liberty,
- 1:03:39Speaker 1: freedom and justice for all. But brothers like Stokely who
- 1:03:42Speaker 1: tried the non violent approach, got smart and realize that
- 1:03:46Speaker 1: they prefer self preservation over non violence. They got tired
- 1:03:50Speaker 1: of getting hit upside their damn head. Okay, when you
- 1:03:53Speaker 1: keep knucking, it's only a matter of time before we
- 1:03:56Speaker 1: get the buck in. Now. Even Congressman John Lewis wouldn't
- 1:03:59Speaker 1: agree with President Clinton because in the nineteen ninety eight
- 1:04:02Speaker 1: Tribute to Quame Tour, Congressman John Lewis paid homage the
- 1:04:05Speaker 1: Quame Tour Listen, my friend, my brother, my colleague, mister
- 1:04:12Speaker 1: chairman absolute to tonight the calls from your courage and
- 1:04:17Speaker 1: your great strength. You know I had the great bless
- 1:04:20Speaker 1: him the cost. I served as chair of Snack from
- 1:04:24Speaker 1: June nineteen sixty three to May a, nineteen sixty six,
- 1:04:28Speaker 1: during the time of the March on Washington, Mississippi summer
- 1:04:32Speaker 1: and the march from Salmon to my government. So, Stokeley,
- 1:04:36Speaker 1: you are a warrior. It caross your dad to stand
- 1:04:39Speaker 1: up and speak truth to power. And so tonight I said,
- 1:04:45Speaker 1: thank your brother, Stokeley, Thank your brother Terrey. That's right, man,
- 1:04:48Speaker 1: drop on the clues bombs, for you know, two black
- 1:04:51Speaker 1: brothers respecting each other. Okay, black people qualm tour stokely
- 1:04:56Speaker 1: car Michael once said, the first need of a free
- 1:04:59Speaker 1: p fool is to define their own terms. You're not
- 1:05:05Speaker 1: free if you're letting white folks to find your terms
- 1:05:08Speaker 1: and tell you who should leave and how to lead.
- 1:05:11Speaker 1: Mind your business. President Clinton, please let me give the
- 1:05:15Speaker 1: forty second President of the United States, Bill Clinton, the
- 1:05:18Speaker 1: biggest he hall, he ha, he ha. You're stupid, mother?
- 1:05:22Speaker 1: Are you dumb? Cassidy? Of these people? Man, the unmitigated gaul?
- 1:05:27Speaker 1: Who did they do? Who the unmitigated pale faced ghostly
- 1:05:33Speaker 1: gall to tell the judge stokely call Michael for the
- 1:05:37Speaker 1: way he chose to do things When this country has
- 1:05:40Speaker 1: been violent to black people since day one? Why they
- 1:05:45Speaker 1: get the nub But we cand book. Come on, man, Charlemagne,
- 1:05:49Speaker 1: thank you for that donkey of today. You know it's crazy.
- 1:05:51Speaker 1: I had a dream last night about Bill Clinton and
- 1:05:54Speaker 1: Joe Biden. We were liking a church, but you know
- 1:05:56Speaker 1: it was more like a Kingdom hall because and I
- 1:05:57Speaker 1: grew up in the Kingdom Hall. My mom was a
- 1:05:59Speaker 1: Jehovah witness. I grew up with. It felt like the
- 1:06:01Speaker 1: Kingdom Hall. And Bill I was sitting next to President
- 1:06:06Speaker 1: Clinton he said something that Joe Biden about me, and
- 1:06:10Speaker 1: Joe Biden said something smart, so I leaned Doman said that, well,
- 1:06:14Speaker 1: f you two, President Clinton. Joe looked at me creating
- 1:06:18Speaker 1: President Clinton. Where you kind of deserved that, Joe. It
- 1:06:20Speaker 1: was weird. It was I had that dream last night.
- 1:06:23Speaker 1: All right too, are you dreaming about too? Little white man.
- 1:06:27Speaker 1: I don't like how you I don't like how you see.
- 1:06:28Speaker 1: I'll see the mood that you're in this morning. I
- 1:06:30Speaker 1: see that mood that you're in. All right, Well again,
- 1:06:32Speaker 1: thank you for that dunk of the day. When we
- 1:06:34Speaker 1: come back, we have Roy Jones Junior joining us. Of
- 1:06:38Speaker 1: course he's supposed to fight Mike Tyson, so we'll kicking
- 1:06:40Speaker 1: with Roy Jones. Don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning,
- 1:06:43Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club Morning. Everybody is tj Envy, Angela Yee,
- 1:06:51Speaker 1: Charlomagne and the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We
- 1:06:54Speaker 1: got a special guest on the line right now. Yes, sir,
- 1:06:58Speaker 1: Roy Jones Junior, Brother, I'm blessed black and Holly favor man.
- 1:07:05Speaker 1: I've been I've been arguing about you all weekend, long man,
- 1:07:08Speaker 1: because because because that was since the Mike Tyson Roy
- 1:07:11Speaker 1: Jones fight was announced. It seems like it's just a
- 1:07:15Speaker 1: level of disrespect on social media for Roy Jones Junior.
- 1:07:18Speaker 1: Like like I said on the radio last week, I said,
- 1:07:21Speaker 1: Roy Jones has had a better boxing career than Mike Tyson,
- 1:07:24Speaker 1: and he was a better boxing than Mike Tyson. And
- 1:07:26Speaker 1: they acted like I said God wasn't real or something
- 1:07:30Speaker 1: like that. It was that I didn't know that. I
- 1:07:32Speaker 1: didn't know that I was ever a debate. People are crazy.
- 1:07:35Speaker 1: You can't hit people much attention. It's got to focus
- 1:07:38Speaker 1: on what you do and keep it pushing, you know
- 1:07:39Speaker 1: what I mean? So why why did you decide to
- 1:07:42Speaker 1: do this fight? Why did you decide to fight Mike Tyson?
- 1:07:44Speaker 1: Right there? Two reasons? Two reasons A. When I want
- 1:07:48Speaker 1: Hipway title. The only Hipway I said I would have
- 1:07:50Speaker 1: stayed Hipway to fight would have been Mike Tyson. At
- 1:07:53Speaker 1: the time, Mike had recently retired and Mike said he
- 1:07:56Speaker 1: was done with boxing. So people say no royd was off.
- 1:07:59Speaker 1: Among the might be no no, no, no no no,
- 1:08:02Speaker 1: might say double boxing. So I let it go and
- 1:08:04Speaker 1: I went back down to life hither Way. So at
- 1:08:07Speaker 1: this point of time, we got COVID we got everybody
- 1:08:10Speaker 1: stuck in the house. We got putting our good videos
- 1:08:13Speaker 1: and getting a lot of good responses from it. So
- 1:08:15Speaker 1: everybody jump up. I want to fight White Mike. I
- 1:08:18Speaker 1: want to fight Mike. I want to fight Mike. Why
- 1:08:19Speaker 1: they want to fight Mike because Mike getting so much attention.
- 1:08:22Speaker 1: But on my own, I'm just doing my little training
- 1:08:25Speaker 1: video where I'm training some of my people, not really
- 1:08:27Speaker 1: put them up a lot, and I'm getting a lot
- 1:08:29Speaker 1: of attention as well. So somehow Mike figured he called
- 1:08:32Speaker 1: me because he knew I was always easy person to
- 1:08:34Speaker 1: make a fight with. Does nothing. So you call Roy
- 1:08:38Speaker 1: and he's like, look, we don't want no boxing promoters,
- 1:08:41Speaker 1: we don't want to box some managers. We don't even
- 1:08:43Speaker 1: want no boxing lawyers. We just want to put you
- 1:08:45Speaker 1: with Mike Narrain. Let you and Mike eat off with
- 1:08:47Speaker 1: y'all make and y'all can give a lot to cheer.
- 1:08:50Speaker 1: I'm like, you know, that's not a bad idea. And
- 1:08:53Speaker 1: I did see how good Mike looking on the videos,
- 1:08:56Speaker 1: so I'm like, Okay, I know I'm a lot of guy.
- 1:08:59Speaker 1: And I also felt like because I'm like, they know that,
- 1:09:01Speaker 1: you know, it's probably a little bit less risky for
- 1:09:04Speaker 1: him as well because I'm smaller than him. So they
- 1:09:07Speaker 1: felt like, well, let's take Roy. So were has name?
- 1:09:10Speaker 1: Where has everything? We're still active, work can move Black Hill.
- 1:09:14Speaker 1: So if you can't catch where are do, you're going
- 1:09:16Speaker 1: to have problems. But we're also confunct. Yeah, I respect
- 1:09:19Speaker 1: that with Mike Tyson actually doing the fight with you
- 1:09:21Speaker 1: because like you said, you have already been training people
- 1:09:23Speaker 1: all this time. You have the gym you fought two
- 1:09:26Speaker 1: years ago, so you're not rusty. Because I see a
- 1:09:30Speaker 1: lot of people talking about, oh, it's going to be dangerous.
- 1:09:32Speaker 1: I saw George Foreman saying that. So how do you
- 1:09:34Speaker 1: respond when people say, well, you know this could and badly,
- 1:09:38Speaker 1: this could be dangerous? What do you say to that? There?
- 1:09:41Speaker 1: You gonna walk out your door and come in contact
- 1:09:43Speaker 1: with the wrong person, and that could be dangers because
- 1:09:45Speaker 1: you're be into COVID nineteen to be up out of here.
- 1:09:48Speaker 1: So I mean, how God got for you go? You're
- 1:09:50Speaker 1: gonna go anywhere? So what's to do it? What am
- 1:09:52Speaker 1: I losing? I don't so if I did that or
- 1:09:54Speaker 1: if I just COVID and went at least doing this,
- 1:09:57Speaker 1: I went like I want to go. So what's the difference.
- 1:10:00Speaker 1: I really choose my favor if I could, they told
- 1:10:03Speaker 1: me you probably won't get killed. We're good. I would
- 1:10:05Speaker 1: like this and then catch cold and that I got
- 1:10:08Speaker 1: a feeling you wanted you do want to go in
- 1:10:11Speaker 1: the ring like because because I always wonder, do you
- 1:10:13Speaker 1: think staying around too long hurt your legacy? Uh? It
- 1:10:16Speaker 1: didn't really hurt my legacy. What it is, people, I
- 1:10:19Speaker 1: understand what you judge is you just on the way
- 1:10:21Speaker 1: up to the hit with division and the one dropped down,
- 1:10:24Speaker 1: then you stopped. Because that's what That's what my goal was.
- 1:10:27Speaker 1: After I quit going with my goals, which was after
- 1:10:29Speaker 1: I wanted to lay he with title, that's my career
- 1:10:31Speaker 1: start to decline. But I didn't have goals. I didn't
- 1:10:33Speaker 1: realize that I'll do this called people are to see it,
- 1:10:36Speaker 1: and people wanted to see me do it, so I
- 1:10:37Speaker 1: did it. But before then I was always gold driven
- 1:10:40Speaker 1: and Tyson was in my goal driven mass set. He
- 1:10:42Speaker 1: was in my plans, my goals. So when I want
- 1:10:45Speaker 1: to hit with Title, I say I'll fight Tyson and
- 1:10:48Speaker 1: he want to pression, I'll fight as a hit with
- 1:10:49Speaker 1: Then I come bent down and went light hit with title,
- 1:10:51Speaker 1: then I'd be done. But when I had a hard
- 1:10:53Speaker 1: time because of the weight, a lot of people want
- 1:10:54Speaker 1: to see another fight. So I did that and I
- 1:10:56Speaker 1: kept on going. I kept on going. Well, I should
- 1:10:58Speaker 1: have stopped there, but in some people's minds it could
- 1:11:02Speaker 1: have hurt the legs. But if you go back and
- 1:11:03Speaker 1: look at it, nobody ever turned professional as a dream
- 1:11:07Speaker 1: middleweek and became heavyeight champ of world. And nothing they
- 1:11:10Speaker 1: can do about that. They can try to say all
- 1:11:12Speaker 1: his legs, it isn't no pound pound. Nobody in the
- 1:11:15Speaker 1: sport of boxing ever covered pound for pound as much
- 1:11:19Speaker 1: weight as I cover. And I said, I went from
- 1:11:20Speaker 1: one fifty four to have gotta wait two twenty eight.
- 1:11:23Speaker 1: That's a lot of damn weight. So the other with
- 1:11:25Speaker 1: eight rails, that's what they say. What are the rules
- 1:11:31Speaker 1: for this? Because it is different? Right they called their
- 1:11:33Speaker 1: calling it an exhibition, So what's the rules? Is their headgear?
- 1:11:36Speaker 1: Because I see them discussing, oh, they should wear headgear
- 1:11:39Speaker 1: and my gear, but they should did They should have
- 1:11:42Speaker 1: made it with sixteen Houns clubs. But it's for a
- 1:11:45Speaker 1: twelve hours clive and no head gear, twelve hours gloves
- 1:11:48Speaker 1: in but two Houns is bigger than the regular bloods
- 1:11:50Speaker 1: fighting in anyway. So that's just like a fighting glove.
- 1:11:53Speaker 1: So sixteenouns barn gloves, you're gonna do an exhibition would
- 1:11:56Speaker 1: have sounded a little bit more exhibitionist to me. Twelve
- 1:12:00Speaker 1: does not sound like exhibition to me. And hey, Get,
- 1:12:03Speaker 1: don't do number protect you from cuts anyway? Heck, you
- 1:12:05Speaker 1: don't protect you from no concussions and nothing. And make
- 1:12:08Speaker 1: it hi bigger Get, You're a bigger target for him
- 1:12:10Speaker 1: to hit. So I does not have here again, So
- 1:12:12Speaker 1: what kind of money do you stand to make from
- 1:12:14Speaker 1: this fight, you and Mike? And where is some of
- 1:12:16Speaker 1: that money going? Some of that money will go to
- 1:12:18Speaker 1: breast cast or some of them might will go go
- 1:12:20Speaker 1: to human trafficking, uh something. That money will go to
- 1:12:24Speaker 1: big brothers, big sisters. There's a lot of places it's
- 1:12:26Speaker 1: gonna go. Um. So I'm not really concerned about how
- 1:12:28Speaker 1: much we make. I'm just so happy that Mike chose
- 1:12:31Speaker 1: me to go to ring with and I always wanted
- 1:12:33Speaker 1: to see even in my older days, we will be
- 1:12:36Speaker 1: like being a with Mike because Mike was one of
- 1:12:39Speaker 1: the most exciting hitways of all time. Now I read
- 1:12:42Speaker 1: I read J. Prince's book The Ardent Science with respect,
- 1:12:45Speaker 1: and he spoken out. He tried to make this fight
- 1:12:47Speaker 1: happen a long time ago. Why do you think it
- 1:12:50Speaker 1: didn't have him back then? And he did. He tried
- 1:12:52Speaker 1: to make it happen. But they told Mike told Mike
- 1:12:54Speaker 1: people told him at the town. I don't know if
- 1:12:55Speaker 1: he forgot aver Mike people told him that they Michael
- 1:12:58Speaker 1: was through a boxing Mike do want to fight no more?
- 1:13:00Speaker 1: So I said okay, and I left it alone. Now
- 1:13:02Speaker 1: some us came along and said that somebody said something
- 1:13:04Speaker 1: about they offered me for the me. Men, come out, bro,
- 1:13:07Speaker 1: I ain't get for the me to fight. To do that.
- 1:13:09Speaker 1: I fought for the heavway tighter. I got way listening
- 1:13:12Speaker 1: to fight him, and he was just in my open,
- 1:13:14Speaker 1: just the things at that time. Anybody else wasn't here
- 1:13:17Speaker 1: with division. So if you didn't offer me double or
- 1:13:20Speaker 1: triple what I had made to fight that dude to
- 1:13:22Speaker 1: fight Mike, and I want to fight Mike. You think
- 1:13:24Speaker 1: I'm gonna say no this Roy, Oh, it's gonna say
- 1:13:27Speaker 1: him no. Nope, So no, I tried. What I got
- 1:13:32Speaker 1: back was he didn't want to box the most of
- 1:13:33Speaker 1: I want back to day what I had to do.
- 1:13:34Speaker 1: All right, we got more with Roy Jones Junior. When
- 1:13:36Speaker 1: we come back. Let's get into his single. Remember this single,
- 1:13:39Speaker 1: y'all must have forgotten. It's the Breakfast Morning. Everybody is
- 1:13:43Speaker 1: cdj Envy Angela, Yee, Charlomagne the guy we are the
- 1:13:47Speaker 1: Breakfast Club that was Roy Jones a single. Y'all must
- 1:13:50Speaker 1: have forgotten. Roy Jones is here. Ye Now I gotta
- 1:13:53Speaker 1: ask you. Are you gonna have any artists walk you
- 1:13:55Speaker 1: out in the ring? I'll never forget when Roy Jones
- 1:13:59Speaker 1: before his right, y'all must have forgot. Y'all must forgot
- 1:14:02Speaker 1: what's going to be happening when you go into the ring.
- 1:14:05Speaker 1: I don't know yet this time, because they're also gonna
- 1:14:08Speaker 1: have some orders to perform on the show, because it's
- 1:14:10Speaker 1: really a big event that they bring this time. It's
- 1:14:13Speaker 1: not like normal boxing, So it's gonna be like I
- 1:14:15Speaker 1: think it's gonna be two or three XS on the show,
- 1:14:18Speaker 1: major acts. I can't reveal them yet. So if somebody
- 1:14:22Speaker 1: liked that it is there and they got a hot
- 1:14:24Speaker 1: song and it gives my blood pump, whynot? You know, Roy,
- 1:14:28Speaker 1: when you went up the heavyweight and then came back
- 1:14:30Speaker 1: down the lightweight. How much how much is that you
- 1:14:32Speaker 1: think diminish your skill set with the muscle loss, I
- 1:14:36Speaker 1: lost twenty five pounds of muscle and it really messed
- 1:14:39Speaker 1: my body up more than I thought it would. But
- 1:14:41Speaker 1: the first fight to win the title, which what I had,
- 1:14:43Speaker 1: which was gold driven, my heart went out and won
- 1:14:47Speaker 1: the fight still. And that's why I tell people, when
- 1:14:49Speaker 1: you got old or when you gold driven, you're a
- 1:14:51Speaker 1: different athlete than you're You're not go driven. How do
- 1:14:53Speaker 1: you win this fight? I heard you say earlier that
- 1:14:55Speaker 1: if Mike will have to catch you early, So in
- 1:14:58Speaker 1: your mind, what's the strategy to beating Mike Tyson? Right now?
- 1:15:01Speaker 1: In my mind, the strategy to move around boxing for
- 1:15:04Speaker 1: the first two of year round. I'm making you use
- 1:15:06Speaker 1: this list a little bit. Then the last five round.
- 1:15:10Speaker 1: I try to see in your outboxing, and you know
- 1:15:12Speaker 1: he's always dangers. But you gotta tell the out boxing.
- 1:15:15Speaker 1: You hit the mouth. Sometimes it might call you staring.
- 1:15:17Speaker 1: I didn't go toe to toe. I don't know, so
- 1:15:19Speaker 1: you never can tell what happened. And depending on how
- 1:15:20Speaker 1: ad he eating them out heating the mall, you definitely
- 1:15:23Speaker 1: want to go to the to want to get your
- 1:15:25Speaker 1: lick back. So who knows. Now you retired two years ago,
- 1:15:28Speaker 1: have you been training since your retirement? Have you still
- 1:15:30Speaker 1: been in the gym? Because you know, we've seen Tyson
- 1:15:32Speaker 1: didn't gain a lot of weight. So we've seen Tyson
- 1:15:34Speaker 1: wasn't fit. Now he's starting to get back in shape.
- 1:15:37Speaker 1: Have you been staying you stayed training? Yeah, I stay
- 1:15:39Speaker 1: kind of fit. I went up to coach probably two
- 1:15:42Speaker 1: twenty five as high as I went, but I came
- 1:15:44Speaker 1: back down because I stayed training my five thus and
- 1:15:46Speaker 1: I just stayed active because I have to be able
- 1:15:48Speaker 1: to show them things. And even now then one or
- 1:15:50Speaker 1: two of Mike woman to come in and show how
- 1:15:52Speaker 1: it goes and ring for real. They might not believe
- 1:15:53Speaker 1: what I tell so to show him what I tell them,
- 1:15:55Speaker 1: so I do stay acting him. I have been staying
- 1:15:57Speaker 1: predactive for this last two years. Yes, when you fight,
- 1:15:59Speaker 1: tell you can. You know people are saying, okay, you
- 1:16:01Speaker 1: guys are both over fifty years old, they'll be taking
- 1:16:04Speaker 1: it easy on each other. Is there any taking it easy?
- 1:16:06Speaker 1: Or you just go you go for blood like you're
- 1:16:08Speaker 1: going to not Tyson the count. I ain't taking ease
- 1:16:12Speaker 1: on nobody, and Tyson know how to take the ease,
- 1:16:14Speaker 1: don't nobody, So I know he don't know how to
- 1:16:16Speaker 1: take ease, don't nobody, So why I would I prepare
- 1:16:18Speaker 1: to take the ease on him? Do you have a
- 1:16:20Speaker 1: relationship with Mike Tyson? Not really, never have historically, never
- 1:16:24Speaker 1: shot around and kicked it anything like that in China,
- 1:16:28Speaker 1: and neither one of us spoke Chinese, so it wasn't
- 1:16:31Speaker 1: a lot. We said, you know, you know right, I
- 1:16:36Speaker 1: know you trained people, And I was telling somebody this weekend.
- 1:16:39Speaker 1: Roy Jones Junior was like the Patrick Mahomes of boxing,
- 1:16:43Speaker 1: Like he he did things in that ring people never
- 1:16:46Speaker 1: saw a boxing do So is it possible to teach
- 1:16:48Speaker 1: somebody to do what you used to do? I don't
- 1:16:51Speaker 1: know if you can teach that. I don't try to
- 1:16:52Speaker 1: teach that. That comes directly from a book. I don't
- 1:16:55Speaker 1: know if I don't try to teach that. I just
- 1:16:56Speaker 1: try to teach understand boxing. We understood it, But all
- 1:17:00Speaker 1: other stuff that's so nim is happening on September twelfth,
- 1:17:04Speaker 1: Where can people watch everything leading up to the fight
- 1:17:07Speaker 1: and then the actual fight. A lot of it you
- 1:17:09Speaker 1: got to download this app called Triller. They got everything
- 1:17:11Speaker 1: on Triller, then they will have also the fight on
- 1:17:13Speaker 1: the paper view or in demand. Now you mentioned Tyson,
- 1:17:17Speaker 1: you mentioned yourself, and you mentioned Floyd Mayweather. Who's the
- 1:17:20Speaker 1: next box you checking out? That you really like that,
- 1:17:22Speaker 1: that you think's gonna take the torch to the next
- 1:17:24Speaker 1: ten years. It's hard to save the cars. There are
- 1:17:26Speaker 1: a lot of good boxes out there right now, but
- 1:17:28Speaker 1: I haven't seen anybody really rise to the top, or
- 1:17:32Speaker 1: I haven't seen a few come posts. But right now
- 1:17:34Speaker 1: Carnello's demand. You know what I'm saying. But the showmanship
- 1:17:38Speaker 1: and the added the IT factor that we had, I
- 1:17:42Speaker 1: haven't seen that yet. But there's a kid coming up
- 1:17:44Speaker 1: by the name of Tier fem on Lot Pigs and
- 1:17:46Speaker 1: a kid by the name of Devin Hanna. Watch one
- 1:17:51Speaker 1: of those. One of those guys may end up having
- 1:17:53Speaker 1: the IT factor. But we got a seat. Yeah. I like,
- 1:17:55Speaker 1: I mean, I like guys like Earl Spencer, like guys
- 1:17:58Speaker 1: like Terrence Crawford. I love Canello, But I understand what
- 1:18:00Speaker 1: you're saying about. The showmanship at the end of the day,
- 1:18:03Speaker 1: is still a show like like I always said, if
- 1:18:05Speaker 1: Amar and Ronan was a better boxing, you'd be the
- 1:18:08Speaker 1: biggest thing in the sport right now, right now if
- 1:18:11Speaker 1: you better boxing, and we had to tone it down,
- 1:18:12Speaker 1: just get it on TV to be the biggest thing
- 1:18:14Speaker 1: going to boxing right now? Hey, what about body Headbanger records?
- 1:18:17Speaker 1: Man that that's that's shut down. Two on the way
- 1:18:20Speaker 1: right now, if you on the way, it's already done excellent.
- 1:18:23Speaker 1: It's just been to come out right now? Why a

- 1:18:39Speaker 1: about that makes you feel good? I really just enjoyed
- 1:18:43Speaker 1: the initry that it gives you and affects you to
- 1:18:44Speaker 1: say what you want to say, And really, ain't nobody
- 1:18:46Speaker 1: to say nothing about it once you said to put
- 1:18:48Speaker 1: it on rep and then it get about this out
- 1:18:50Speaker 1: there all right? Well? Roy, we appreciate you man to
- 1:18:53Speaker 1: be safe out there and we look forward to seeing

- 1:18:59Speaker 1: man win and this right September twelve. I can't wait
- 1:19:02Speaker 1: because I'm so excited to see what it's gonna feel
- 1:19:05Speaker 1: like to take the first punch from Mike. You know
- 1:19:07Speaker 1: what I mean, because after that first punch, game off?
- 1:19:11Speaker 1: Why do you like pain? Roy? Feeling you like pain?
- 1:19:14Speaker 1: They ain't that like pain? Like challenges, bro, I love
- 1:19:17Speaker 1: challenges A well, we appreciate you. Good luck again, Roy,
- 1:19:21Speaker 1: Josie Junior, Breakfast Club, the Breakfast Club Morning. Everybody is
- 1:19:30Speaker 1: DJ Envy, Angela, Ye, Charlomagne the guy. We are the
- 1:19:34Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Master
- 1:19:36Speaker 1: P and J Cole. This is the rumor report with
- 1:19:40Speaker 1: Angela Breakfast Club. Well, Master P and J Cole are collaborating.
- 1:19:49Speaker 1: They did a Puma commercial together, and here's what it
- 1:19:52Speaker 1: sounds like. K be serious. I know you ain't about
- 1:19:56Speaker 1: to try to do what I think you would try
- 1:19:58Speaker 1: to do because that will be crazy and you ain't crazy,
- 1:20:02Speaker 1: is you? So? I mean, what's the time. I know
- 1:20:05Speaker 1: you got more sense than that, young blood. I think
- 1:20:12Speaker 1: the home is really trying to do it. I love it.
- 1:20:16Speaker 1: That's perfection right there. If you're then you remember Master
- 1:20:20Speaker 1: Pe making the Charlotte Harness and Toronto Raptors and playing
- 1:20:23Speaker 1: in the preseason for both of them. So you know
- 1:20:24Speaker 1: why that commercial was so dope. Great commercial. Well, according
- 1:20:28Speaker 1: to Master P, Jake Cole is trying to get in
- 1:20:30Speaker 1: the NBA. And here's what he had to say to
- 1:20:33Speaker 1: TMZ Sports. Yeah, so when I talked to Jake Cole,
- 1:20:37Speaker 1: he was like, you know, picked off, you did it,
- 1:20:40Speaker 1: And what do you think I would have to do
- 1:20:43Speaker 1: to make that happen? To say, you really to get
- 1:20:46Speaker 1: one of these NBA jersey. It's not gonna be easy.
- 1:20:49Speaker 1: It's not gonna be easy. It's gonna be a lot
- 1:20:51Speaker 1: of hate. There's gonna be a lot of people not
- 1:20:53Speaker 1: believing in you. But you know, Jake Cole, he got
- 1:20:56Speaker 1: the right side again of him. I'm not mad at that.
- 1:20:59Speaker 1: I mean, Jay Cole's very successful rap superstar. So he
- 1:21:03Speaker 1: wants to do some other things in his life. If
- 1:21:05Speaker 1: making an NBA team is one of them, why not?
- 1:21:07Speaker 1: Why why can't he attempt to do that? Right? Go
- 1:21:09Speaker 1: for and they said he gets busy, They said he
- 1:21:11Speaker 1: gets busy in basketball. I've never seen him play, but
- 1:21:13Speaker 1: they said he's nice. Yeah, he actually could have been that.
- 1:21:16Speaker 1: He could have played basketball for real, but he chose
- 1:21:18Speaker 1: to pursue his hip hop career. So why doesn't Mitchell
- 1:21:21Speaker 1: and Ness put out The Master Pete Jersey, by the way,
- 1:21:23Speaker 1: like right now, it would be a great time to
- 1:21:25Speaker 1: do that, especially with the No Limit documentary out there,
- 1:21:27Speaker 1: Like why don't they put out The Master Pete Charlotte Hornet,
- 1:21:30Speaker 1: Jersey or the Percy Miller Toronto Raptors, Jersey. Why not?
- 1:21:33Speaker 1: That'd be a good one. I'm not sure. Well, speaking
- 1:21:36Speaker 1: of things coming out, there's gonna be a Supreme Air
- 1:21:38Speaker 1: Jordan one and that's gonna come out in twenty twenty one,
- 1:21:40Speaker 1: and so I wonder how much that's gonna go for online.
- 1:21:44Speaker 1: You know, those are gonna be hard to get. They
- 1:21:46Speaker 1: actually they look pretty nice though, all right. When Stoop
- 1:21:48Speaker 1: Dogg was on The Breakfast Club, he revealed his top
- 1:21:51Speaker 1: ten rapper, well he didn't reveal what he talks about
- 1:21:54Speaker 1: Eminem not being in his top ten. Listen to this.
- 1:21:56Speaker 1: He has probably put Eminem in a position to where
- 1:21:59Speaker 1: he could be labeled as one of the top ten rappers. Ever,
- 1:22:02Speaker 1: I don't think so. But the game feels like he's
- 1:22:05Speaker 1: top ten lyrics says and all that that comes with it.
- 1:22:08Speaker 1: But that's just because he's what doctor Dre and Doctor
- 1:22:11Speaker 1: Dre helps him find the best eminem that he could find.
- 1:22:15Speaker 1: Now he's revealed what his top ten MC's list of
- 1:22:17Speaker 1: all time is. Did y'all look at the list? Yeah?
- 1:22:22Speaker 1: He said Slick Rick, Ice Cube, LLL Karis one Rock Him,
- 1:22:25Speaker 1: run from from DMC, and then he said d from
- 1:22:28Speaker 1: DM DMC. Yeah, Big Daddy Kane, iced and too short.
- 1:22:32Speaker 1: I'm not mad at that, Like, why do people get
- 1:22:34Speaker 1: so mad about other people's top ten's list? That's Snoop
- 1:22:37Speaker 1: Dogg's personal top ten lists? You Ghost, faith Killer is
- 1:22:40Speaker 1: my favorite rapper of all time, so it's your top
- 1:22:43Speaker 1: ten is subjective, it's personal, Like, I don't understand people
- 1:22:46Speaker 1: get so upset about those things. Snoop said, a lot
- 1:22:48Speaker 1: of people have been crying about me leaving people off
- 1:22:50Speaker 1: my top ten without even cm my ish so here
- 1:22:53Speaker 1: it is fi. I noticed how none of my peers
- 1:22:55Speaker 1: are MC's after me are on the list. Respect your
- 1:22:58Speaker 1: Jesus what I was taught. If you offended your over it,
- 1:23:01Speaker 1: I got left off a lot of top tens. I
- 1:23:03Speaker 1: don't see nothing wrong with his list. I don't see
- 1:23:06Speaker 1: why people are so upset, Like, yes, that's his personal
- 1:23:09Speaker 1: top ten. I don't see the problem. And he even
- 1:23:11Speaker 1: acknowledged that Yoe, a lot of people have eminem and
- 1:23:13Speaker 1: the top ten. He just don't have em and his right. Hey,
- 1:23:16Speaker 1: I'm not going to argue with somebody on who their
- 1:23:18Speaker 1: top ten list is not at all for what? All right,
- 1:23:21Speaker 1: Cardie B is joining only fans? How about it? She said,
- 1:23:25Speaker 1: I'm doing a partnership with only fans. Every time someone
- 1:23:27Speaker 1: started rumor, I'll be addressing it. There What else should
- 1:23:30Speaker 1: I post besides rumors and behind the scenes, Maybe a
- 1:23:33Speaker 1: video of me cleaning my home with my nails. I
- 1:23:36Speaker 1: don't know how she does anything. No, that's very smart.
- 1:23:39Speaker 1: I'm not mad at that. The reason that's smart is
- 1:23:41Speaker 1: because you know, these people, we give away so much
- 1:23:44Speaker 1: free content and you're making so much other people rich
- 1:23:47Speaker 1: via Twitter and Instagram and whatever else. It is. So

- 1:23:53Speaker 1: over the only fans and pay for that's right. I
- 1:23:56Speaker 1: ain't mad at that. You're about to get so paid
- 1:23:58Speaker 1: on only fans. Just off And like I've always been
- 1:24:01Speaker 1: telling people from the beginning, only fans does not mean
- 1:24:04Speaker 1: that you're naked. Some people are, yes, and some people
- 1:24:07Speaker 1: make a lot of money with their clothes on. As
- 1:24:09Speaker 1: I've been saying from the beginning. So all right, an
- 1:24:13Speaker 1: introduced body to something else. There's something there's another platform
- 1:24:16Speaker 1: out there that's pretty good. I'm not gonna give the
- 1:24:17Speaker 1: secret away yet, but I have to hit body up
- 1:24:20Speaker 1: and tell her. Okay, and young Dulph is giving away

- 1:25:59Speaker 1: I watched it a few times very very good film,
- 1:26:02Speaker 1: you know, visually visually stunning. But I have to say
- 1:26:05Speaker 1: it is very embarrassing that Brown Skin Girls is not
- 1:26:09Speaker 1: the number one song on hip hop and R and
- 1:26:11Speaker 1: B radio. I feel like every hip hop, R and
- 1:26:14Speaker 1: B radio station, the adult contemporary station, they need to
- 1:26:18Speaker 1: be playing brown Skin Girl like brin like. And they
- 1:26:21Speaker 1: slept on that song when the Lion King soundtrack came
- 1:26:25Speaker 1: out last year. But now that it has a visual,
- 1:26:29Speaker 1: I feel like they should add a Kelly Rowland verse
- 1:26:31Speaker 1: to it, and they should really make that the number
- 1:26:34Speaker 1: one song at hip hop and R and B radio
- 1:26:37Speaker 1: only because the song does so much man like, you
- 1:26:39Speaker 1: know we I I see how my daughters gravitate towards
- 1:26:42Speaker 1: that song, and I've always gravitated towards that song. So
- 1:26:45Speaker 1: I think that should be a that should be something
- 1:26:47Speaker 1: radio gets behind, especially hip All right, well, when we
- 1:26:52Speaker 1: come back, we got the positive note. It's the breakfast Club.
