- 0:27Speaker 6: How you feeling?
- 0:28Speaker 8: How was your weekend, Sharla?
- 0:28Speaker 7: I feel great, man. It's the holiday season. All right,
- 0:31Speaker 7: I've already figured it out.
- 0:32Speaker 9: What?
- 0:32Speaker 8: Go ahead and put all the Christmas decorations up, okay?
- 0:34Speaker 8: They're already up! I know, but not like they need
- 0:37Speaker 8: to be, okay?
- 0:38Speaker 7: I saw one store on this block had the decorations up.
- 0:41Speaker 3: I seen it.
- 0:41Speaker 8: Go ahead and put them up. Because nobody cares about
- 0:43Speaker 8: Thanksgiving no more.
- 0:44Speaker 2: No.
- 0:45Speaker 7: Thanksgiving, we've all admitted... Finally, that the food is trash. Okay,
- 0:50Speaker 7: the turkey. Nobody really likes turkey like that. Okay, unless
- 0:52Speaker 7: they spotted on some gravy. But go ahead and put
- 0:55Speaker 7: the Christmas decorations up. Let's get to it, man.
- 0:57Speaker 8: Yeah, we already started. Let's get to it.
- 0:58Speaker 6: Me and my neighbors already have light boards. Like, as
- 1:00Speaker 6: a kid, I always wanted my house to light up, right?
- 1:02Speaker 6: But of course, we really couldn't afford it. So I
- 1:04Speaker 6: did my house. My neighbor did their house. And it
- 1:06Speaker 6: just feels so good to come home at night and
- 1:08Speaker 6: just see... It just puts you in a Christmas mood.
- 1:10Speaker 6: It puts you in a spirit. Our lights aren't on yet,
- 1:12Speaker 6: but the decorations are. The lights are up because I
- 1:15Speaker 6: think they come on on a certain day.
- 1:17Speaker 7: I don't know when it is exactly. But yes, it's time, man.
- 1:20Speaker 7: I want to be in the season right now. Go
- 1:22Speaker 7: ahead and give me two months of the season right now.
- 1:24Speaker 8: I'm in the season. The Christmas music starts.
- 1:26Speaker 7: Earlier and earlier on all the radio stations and in
- 1:28Speaker 7: all the stores now.
- 1:29Speaker 8: Let's go ahead and get to it. We don't really
- 1:31Speaker 8: care about Thanksgiving.
- 1:32Speaker 9: Nah.
- 1:32Speaker 8: Thanksgiving is just a little bump in the road. That's
- 1:34Speaker 8: all it is. On the way to Christmas and New Year.
- 1:36Speaker 8: That's all it is. Salute to everybody.
- 1:37Speaker 6: I ran into a University of Maryland's Eastern Shore HBCU
- 1:42Speaker 6: out in Maryland, which is sad because this is probably,
- 1:45Speaker 6: we have one more homecoming to do, which is South
- 1:47Speaker 6: Carolina State this Friday.
- 1:48Speaker 8: The Breakfast Club will be broadcasting live.
- 1:50Speaker 2: Yes, indeed.
- 1:51Speaker 8: And I really enjoy my homecoming season.
- 1:53Speaker 6: I enjoy visiting all the homecomings, all the colleges, all
- 1:56Speaker 6: the schools, and just seeing the alumni and us having
- 1:58Speaker 6: a good time. So salute to everybody I've seen out
- 2:00Speaker 6: in Maryland. And then I shot over to Atlanta. I
- 2:03Speaker 6: had to speak to the students at Lincoln Tech. So
- 2:05Speaker 6: salute to Lincoln Tech. Of course, it's a trade school.
- 2:08Speaker 6: And the students that were graduating were HVAC, electrical, and
- 2:12Speaker 6: medical assistants.
- 2:13Speaker 8: They ain't going to never have to worry about a
- 2:14Speaker 8: paycheck ever in life. Never in life. Some jobs AI
- 2:17Speaker 8: not going to be able to replace. And that's what
- 2:18Speaker 8: I said.
- 2:19Speaker 6: I said when something goes down and your circuit breaker
- 2:21Speaker 6: breaks down or your heat goes out, AI can't fix it.
- 2:25Speaker 8: But you students can. So salute to the students at
- 2:27Speaker 8: Lincoln Tech.

- 2:33Speaker 7: future correct but ai is not going to be able
- 2:34Speaker 7: to take their job correct so.

- 4:18Speaker 8: There are certain people we can't let.
- 4:20Speaker 7: We can't let people rewrite history about certain folks, and
- 4:23Speaker 7: Scarface is one of them.
- 4:24Speaker 8: One of the greatest.
- 4:25Speaker 7: MCs that ever pick up a pin and step into
- 4:28Speaker 7: a recording booth.
- 4:29Speaker 6: Yes, and one of my favorite, favorite Scarface verses is
- 4:32Speaker 6: him on the Jay-Z joint Can't Be Life. Oh my gosh,
- 4:35Speaker 6: you can feel the pain through that record.
- 4:37Speaker 8: Yeah, that's ridiculous. That's a no-brainer.
- 4:40Speaker 6: You can just feel the pain. But anyway, let's get
- 4:42Speaker 6: into some front page news. Let's start off with sports.

- 5:07Speaker 6: keep reminding you guys that the Giants are number one
- 5:10Speaker 6: in our division.
- 5:12Speaker 7: And I just want to keep reminding y'all that the

- 5:16Speaker 8: I'm fine with that. We're the tallest midget. Salute to
- 5:17Speaker 8: all the midgets out there. I don't mean that in
- 5:19Speaker 8: disrespect for them.

- 5:25Speaker 6: the Vikings at 8-15.

- 5:31Speaker 2: What's up, Mimi?
- 5:31Speaker 8: Odell Beckham Jr. Odell Beckham would be playing. I thought
- 5:34Speaker 8: they played Odell Beckham. He plays for the Vikings now.
- 5:36Speaker 6: Oh, he does?
- 5:36Speaker 8: I didn't even know that.
- 5:37Speaker 2: He plays for the Vikings. Wow.
- 5:38Speaker 8: He ain't going to play.
- 5:39Speaker 6: They said he's going to play.
- 5:40Speaker 3: He's going to play?
- 5:42Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 5:42Speaker 12: Oh, okay.
- 5:42Speaker 8: You mean he's going to dress up?
- 5:44Speaker 6: He's going to put the suit on?
- 5:45Speaker 8: He is going to play. He had a suit on.
- 5:47Speaker 6: No, they said he's going to play, right?
- 5:48Speaker 8: He's being uniformed. He ain't going to suit up. Oh, okay.
- 5:52Speaker 2: What's up, Mimi?
- 5:54Speaker 13: Good morning, guys. How y'all doing this morning?
- 5:56Speaker 14: Good.
- 5:56Speaker 11: Thanks, Mimi Brown. Good morning.
- 5:58Speaker 15: Front Page News is sponsored by Morgan & Morgan, America's
- 6:01Speaker 15: largest injury law firm.
- 6:03Speaker 13: So we start this.
- 6:03Speaker 15: Morning with President Trump, who sat down for his first
- 6:06Speaker 15: in-depth interview with 60 Minutes since the midterm elections. The
- 6:10Speaker 15: president was asked about a range of issues, the future
- 6:14Speaker 15: of the Republican Party, the war in Iran, artificial intelligence.
- 6:17Speaker 15: But what may be getting the most attention this morning
- 6:20Speaker 15: is his take on forgiveness.
- 6:22Speaker 13: Let's listen.
- 6:23Speaker 16: Let's say you pass away. You're entering the next life.
- 6:27Speaker 16: And all you have to do to enter paradise is
- 6:31Speaker 16: feel love and forgiveness for James Comey, Nancy Pelosi, anyone
- 6:37Speaker 16: who you have expressed hate for over the years.
- 6:41Speaker 8: Do you think you can do it?
- 6:42Speaker 2: Well, then I wouldn't be real, would I?
- 6:44Speaker 8: Is the answer no?
- 6:44Speaker 2: The answer is no. I want to be honest.
- 6:46Speaker 8: Before the judgment throne of God.
- 6:48Speaker 2: Before the judgment. No, I think they were very bad people.
- 6:51Speaker 16: And you are telling me you couldn't find it in
- 6:53Speaker 16: your heart to forgive some of your enemies?
- 6:55Speaker 9: No.
- 6:56Speaker 16: After all that's been given to you?
- 6:57Speaker 6: I mean, it's such an easy answer.
- 6:59Speaker 2: All I have to do is say, yes, I can.
- 7:01Speaker 8: Again, I don't think it's an easy answer.
- 7:03Speaker 17: That's why I asked you.
- 7:03Speaker 2: Can I be honest?
- 7:04Speaker 17: Yes.
- 7:04Speaker 6: I probably cannot do that now because I do hate
- 7:07Speaker 6: some of my enemies, and I always will.
- 7:10Speaker 17: Well.
- 7:11Speaker 6: Right.
- 7:12Speaker 8: Well, Matthew 6.
- 7:15Speaker 7: Matthew 6, 14, 15 says, Jesus explicitly states that if
- 7:20Speaker 7: you do not forgive others for their trespasses, your Heavenly Father.
- 7:24Speaker 8: Will not forgive you for your trespasses. So, I mean,
- 7:27Speaker 8: you know, do with that.
- 7:29Speaker 2: What you will.
- 7:30Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 7:31Speaker 15: Trump also acknowledged that his administration's immigration crackdown may have
- 7:35Speaker 15: gone too far. It both helped and hurt him politically.
- 7:38Speaker 15: And following that major loss in the midterms, the president
- 7:41Speaker 15: says he's now open to working with Democrats on a
- 7:43Speaker 15: deal that could allow some undocumented immigrants who.
- 7:46Speaker 13: Lived and worked in the U.S. for years to stay.
- 7:51Speaker 15: But while he's softening his approach on immigration, his latest
- 7:54Speaker 15: move at the White House still suggests that he may
- 7:56Speaker 15: be going in a different direction. So the president over
- 7:59Speaker 15: the weekend named Stephen Miller as his new chief of staff,
- 8:03Speaker 15: replacing Susie Wiles just days after, you know, Republicans suffered
- 8:07Speaker 15: that major loss in the midterm elections. Now, Miller is
- 8:10Speaker 15: one of Trump's closest advisors and the man behind many
- 8:14Speaker 15: of his administration's toughest immigration policies. As chief of staff, though,
- 8:19Speaker 15: Miller will now oversee the White House operations, serve as
- 8:22Speaker 15: one of the president's top decision makers. And of course, again,
- 8:25Speaker 15: this is coming as Democrats take control of Congress. But Trump,
- 8:29Speaker 15: he denies that that shakeup has anything to do with
- 8:32Speaker 15: the election, saying it was just time for a change.
- 8:36Speaker 15: But meanwhile, Trump says he was just kidding when he
- 8:40Speaker 15: offered UFC CEO Dana White the job as White House
- 8:46Speaker 15: press secretary.
- 8:46Speaker 13: Let's listen.
- 8:48Speaker 18: I will tell you, I was only kidding.
- 8:51Speaker 9: Dana loves the idea, and there's only one Dana.
- 8:54Speaker 6: He's great.
- 8:55Speaker 11: I don't know.
- 8:56Speaker 4: You wouldn't mess around with him so much.
- 8:58Speaker 8: I don't think he was kidding.
- 9:02Speaker 13: A lot of people don't think so.
- 9:03Speaker 15: You know, Dana is expected to meet with the president
- 9:07Speaker 15: today to perhaps discuss the position. And Arizona Senator Mark
- 9:11Speaker 15: Kelly says the idea alone shows just how unserious this
- 9:15Speaker 15: administration is.
- 9:16Speaker 13: Let's listen to that.
- 9:17Speaker 18: But even to post that, it demonstrates how unserious.
- 9:23Speaker 8: This president has become.
- 9:25Speaker 19: And I'm starting to get a little worried.
- 9:27Speaker 18: He's 80 years old, doesn't get around very well, falls
- 9:30Speaker 18: asleep in the Oval Office.
- 9:31Speaker 19: Those things happen for a reason. And then you put
- 9:34Speaker 19: stuff out there like this.
- 9:35Speaker 18: I mean, it is just, it would be really funny
- 9:42Speaker 18: if it wasn't dangerous.
- 9:44Speaker 11: He's just now starting to be worried. Just now.
- 9:48Speaker 8: I want to go back to the Stephen Miller thing.
- 9:50Speaker 7: That's not the kind of appointment you make when you
- 9:53Speaker 7: uh when you intend to negotiate with with democrats yeah
- 9:57Speaker 7: it's not that's like the type of appointment you make
- 10:00Speaker 7: when you want to intensify the policies that have defined
- 10:05Speaker 7: this administration for the last couple of.
- 10:06Speaker 15: Years mm-hmm Well, I think we also have some sound, Char,
- 10:10Speaker 15: of just Fox News weighing in on that decision, if
- 10:13Speaker 15: we can play that really quick.
- 10:13Speaker 10: If you want to win elections again, I think this
- 10:16Speaker 10: is one of the dumbest things you could do. This
- 10:18Speaker 10: was a repudiation of, what did you call him, Kayleigh?
- 10:21Speaker 10: The thought leader of conservative policy was rejected across this country.
- 10:26Speaker 10: Texas is blue.
- 10:28Speaker 8: Ted Cruz is sitting there.
- 10:30Speaker 10: By himself, wondering if anyone will ever sit at a
- 10:33Speaker 10: lunch table with him again.
- 10:35Speaker 7: Well, that sounds like Jessica, right? That's Jessica- Yeah, that's Jessica.
- 10:38Speaker 7: That's the common sense on Fox News. OK, that's the
- 10:41Speaker 7: only rational person over there.
- 10:43Speaker 13: She can't call her Fox News.
- 10:45Speaker 17: That was Jessica.
- 10:47Speaker 15: But yes, a lot of people have had something to
- 10:49Speaker 15: say about this appointment. It is making all kinds of
- 10:53Speaker 15: headlines this morning and we will continue to follow that
- 10:56Speaker 15: really quickly. I wanted to just mention in Mississippi that
- 10:58Speaker 15: the Senate race there is still too close to call.
- 11:01Speaker 15: Democrat Scott Cologne, he's still leading Republican Senator Cindy.
- 11:05Speaker 13: Hyde-Smith by 10%.
- 11:06Speaker 15: 2,500 votes with 97% of those ballots counted. But if
- 11:12Speaker 15: you were able to vote but you didn't have your identification,
- 11:15Speaker 15: tomorrow is the last day to provide that so your
- 11:17Speaker 15: vote could count. If he wins, he will be Mississippi's
- 11:20Speaker 15: first black senator since Reconstruction, guys. I'm talking more than
- 11:24Speaker 15: 150 years ago.
- 11:25Speaker 8: When did they stop counting the votes?
- 11:29Speaker 6: They said you could still vote. They said now you
- 11:30Speaker 6: could bring your ID and vote if you had a
- 11:32Speaker 6: problem before.
- 11:33Speaker 15: You can bring it up until tomorrow. Counties have until
- 11:36Speaker 15: Friday to certify the election. So if you didn't have
- 11:40Speaker 15: your ID, you can do it up until tomorrow.
- 11:42Speaker 13: That is the deadline there.
- 11:44Speaker 2: That's crazy.
- 11:45Speaker 8: Is that normal?
- 11:46Speaker 2: No.
- 11:48Speaker 13: I mean, well, technically you voted.
- 11:49Speaker 15: You voted via affidavit, but you just didn't have your,
- 11:52Speaker 15: it's like a provisional ballot is what we call it
- 11:54Speaker 15: here in California. If there was something, you know, wrong
- 11:57Speaker 15: with your name there, you can come back and show.
- 11:59Speaker 8: I just didn't know you could vote after the election.
- 12:01Speaker 3: I've never heard that.
- 12:02Speaker 11: So is there a deadline for late votes?
- 12:06Speaker 15: I don't think it's technically voting after the election. It's
- 12:08Speaker 15: going back and fixing something that you voted the day of.
- 12:11Speaker 13: Oh, the people that already voted.
- 12:13Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 12:13Speaker 6: But did you vote already? So they're not counting votes?
- 12:16Speaker 15: They voted already, but they didn't have their identification. There
- 12:19Speaker 15: was something wrong with their ballot. They can go back
- 12:21Speaker 15: and fix it up until tomorrow.
- 12:22Speaker 3: Oh, gotcha.
- 12:24Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 12:24Speaker 13: Yeah.
- 12:25Speaker 9: All right.
- 12:26Speaker 2: All right.
- 12:26Speaker 3: Well, thank you, Mimi.
- 12:27Speaker 9: Uh-huh.

- 16:16Speaker 22: We go to work.
- 16:17Speaker 17: Every day and do what men do.
- 16:19Speaker 22: And I sometimes feel like we don't get appreciated.
- 16:21Speaker 8: Where you live at?
- 16:22Speaker 22: I just want to call.
- 16:23Speaker 8: Where you live at?

- 16:31Speaker 7: a welder in Houston, Texas. It ranges from $ 51, 000 to
- 16:34Speaker 7: $ 69, 000 per year. You make like $ 33, 000 an hour?
- 16:36Speaker 8: Just about.
- 16:36Speaker 9: Okay.
- 16:39Speaker 8: Well, congratulations.

- 16:42Speaker 6: had to speak to Lincoln Tech, so I spoke at
- 16:43Speaker 6: Lincoln Tech School this weekend. But salute to everybody in
- 16:45Speaker 6: the trades, whether you're welding, electrical, automotive, medical, HVAC. I mean,
- 16:51Speaker 6: those are jobs that I always say are AI-resistant.
- 16:54Speaker 8: So salute to you, Mama.
- 16:56Speaker 17: They could never.
- 16:57Speaker 22: Nobody could never take our job. Well, I'm not going
- 17:00Speaker 22: to say nobody, but no machine could ever take our job.
- 17:03Speaker 8: They need us. Salute to my girl Jordan the Welder, too, man.
- 17:07Speaker 8: Jordan the Welder.
- 17:08Speaker 17: Oh, yes.
- 17:09Speaker 8: You know Jordan?
- 17:10Speaker 22: That's what made me call y'all because I would hear

- 17:15Speaker 22: we out here welding.
- 17:16Speaker 8: Yes. Yeah, that's my girl. I ain't heard from Jordan.
- 17:18Speaker 8: I ain't heard from Jordan now that I think about
- 17:20Speaker 8: it since the Black Effect podcast. Yeah, Jordan ain't calling me.
- 17:22Speaker 8: What's up with you, Jordan? How you doing, Jordan? Salute

- 17:36Speaker 6: hit us up now.
- 17:36Speaker 2: It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
- 17:38Speaker 3: This is your time to get it off your chest,
- 17:41Speaker 3: whether you're mad or blessed.
- 17:43Speaker 6: I hate the way that you walk, the way that
- 17:44Speaker 6: you talk.
- 17:45Speaker 8: I hate the way that you dress.
- 17:46Speaker 4: Everything with me is blessed.
- 17:49Speaker 3: Call up now.
- 17:49Speaker 1: 800-585-1051.
- 17:50Speaker 6: Not just me.
- 17:50Speaker 3: I'm what the culture feel it.
- 17:54Speaker 8: Hello, who's this?
- 17:55Speaker 2: Yo, what's going on? It's Jermaine.
- 17:57Speaker 6: Jermaine, what's up? Get it off your chest.
- 17:58Speaker 17: What's going on? Yo, I got to get off my chest.
- 18:02Speaker 17: I went to this Usher and Chris Brown concert on Thursday,
- 18:05Speaker 17: the one that Lauren touched base on. Yo, that joint
- 18:08Speaker 17: was crazy. And I'm to the point now, I really
- 18:11Speaker 17: want to go back because I heard after that, they
- 18:13Speaker 17: showed up and showed out every show after that.
- 18:15Speaker 8: I heard.
- 18:16Speaker 6: I heard they brought Jeezy out last night.
- 18:17Speaker 8: I heard it was crazy.
- 18:18Speaker 14: Yeah.
- 18:18Speaker 6: It's the first show.
- 18:19Speaker 25: I heard they're still not interacting on stage, though.
- 18:23Speaker 8: They did last night.
- 18:24Speaker 6: They did last night. I thought I read they did.
- 18:27Speaker 6: That was the night after.
- 18:30Speaker 17: So, yeah, so, like, they, I mean, because originally I
- 18:32Speaker 17: was supposed to go on Tuesday, you know what I'm saying,
- 18:34Speaker 17: but I had got free tickets, so I was like,
- 18:35Speaker 17: all right, cool, I'll pop out on Thursday. Hey, I really,
- 18:39Speaker 17: I'm really debating if I should actually pay to go,
- 18:41Speaker 17: you know what I mean, so.
- 18:42Speaker 6: It is a good show, though. It's a great show.
- 18:44Speaker 6: It's a really, really good show.
- 18:45Speaker 11: I still want to go.
- 18:46Speaker 25: Like, I was so happy to see they finally, like,
- 18:48Speaker 25: start figuring it out, because I still want to go.
- 18:50Speaker 6: I went twice, and I was going to go to
- 18:51Speaker 6: the one in Atlanta on Saturday, but they moved the
- 18:53Speaker 6: Saturday show, I think, to Friday, so there was no
- 18:55Speaker 6: Saturday show, but when I was out there, I was
- 18:57Speaker 6: going to go.
- 18:57Speaker 8: It's a great show.
- 18:58Speaker 17: Yeah, I mean, because, like I said, because Because, like,
- 19:00Speaker 17: you know what I'm saying? All right, so first night
- 19:01Speaker 17: brought out T.I. You know what I'm saying? It seemed
- 19:03Speaker 17: rushed because, you know what I'm saying? Usher came out.
- 19:05Speaker 17: He did his little set. He was like, all right, Lynn,
- 19:07Speaker 17: I love y'all. And it was just, like, so abrupt.
- 19:09Speaker 2: So, like, I'm really defeated.
- 19:11Speaker 17: I really want to go.
- 19:12Speaker 8: Yeah, you should go and see the full show.
- 19:14Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 19:15Speaker 25: I was wondering if people who went that first night
- 19:17Speaker 25: in Atlanta would buy tickets for the other nights.
- 19:19Speaker 11: Yo, but that's crazy.
- 19:21Speaker 24: We already spent money on the first goddamn night. And
- 19:23Speaker 24: one of my fans had DM'd me, too. It was
- 19:25Speaker 24: just like, yo, that's crazy. I flew to go see them.
- 19:27Speaker 11: She flew.
- 19:28Speaker 24: So go see them because they canceled their show in Cincinnati.
- 19:33Speaker 6: And it's about a three-and-a-half-hour show. Like, they performed for
- 19:35Speaker 6: three-and-a-half hours straight.
- 19:37Speaker 2: Oh, yeah.
- 19:37Speaker 17: We got two hours because it was like 10 o'clock.
- 19:41Speaker 17: They finally came out. Chris started. Then he bounced. And
- 19:44Speaker 17: then Usher came to his set. And, I mean, the
- 19:46Speaker 17: best part about it, I guess, you know, for people
- 19:48Speaker 17: from Atlanta, you know, because I'm from New York, so
- 19:50Speaker 17: f * * * from Atlanta, you know what I'm saying?
- 19:52Speaker 17: They had T.I. come out, so they went crazy, him
- 19:54Speaker 17: and Young Dro. But outside of that.
- 19:56Speaker 8: Damn, so.
- 19:56Speaker 24: They still ain't going back and forth, and they ain't
- 19:58Speaker 24: had that dance competition on stage like they usually have.
- 20:00Speaker 8: They said they did Back to Sleep on November 6th.
- 20:03Speaker 11: Oh, that was Friday then. That was the first night
- 20:05Speaker 11: after all the craziness. Oh, yeah.
- 20:07Speaker 25: But that's when they were distant a little bit still.
- 20:11Speaker 11: The video I saw, they were on two separate stages.
- 20:13Speaker 8: Now, last night I seen them together. They gave each
- 20:15Speaker 8: other five. They gave each other something. Oh, okay. You
- 20:17Speaker 8: don't need to be right next to a man when
- 20:18Speaker 8: y'all singing Back to Sleep together. Yeah, I know.
- 20:20Speaker 11: But I think people.
- 20:20Speaker 25: Wanted to see the interaction that night, how they normally
- 20:24Speaker 25: do the show.
- 20:24Speaker 11: I don't know. It just seems like.
- 20:25Speaker 8: I love Back to Sleep. Back to Sleep is one
- 20:26Speaker 8: of the greatest R & B records ever.
- 20:28Speaker 11: Ain't it? But that's why the show is still, like,
- 20:31Speaker 11: still rigged.
- 20:31Speaker 8: I would say go again. Back to Sleep and Adorn
- 20:33Speaker 8: are probably the two.
- 20:34Speaker 7: Best R & B records of the last 15 years.
- 20:36Speaker 11: Adorn just make you want to keep talking.
- 20:38Speaker 8: Thank you, brother.
- 20:40Speaker 11: I'm going to the show.
- 20:41Speaker 6: I'm going to still go. Get it on VHS. 800-585-1051
- 20:47Speaker 6: if you need to hit us up. We got the
- 20:48Speaker 6: latest coming up.
- 20:49Speaker 2: What are we talking about?
- 20:49Speaker 11: Yes, we do have the latest coming up. We're going
- 20:51Speaker 11: to be talking about some big stages.
- 20:52Speaker 25: So we'll get into the Usher, Chris Brown, and how
- 20:55Speaker 25: the show progressed over there the rest of the weekends
- 20:57Speaker 25: in Atlanta, Tennessee. What did and didn't happen. And then,
- 20:59Speaker 25: of course, Drewski took over SNL Saturday night. So we'll
- 21:02Speaker 25: talk about that as well, too.
- 21:03Speaker 2: All right.
- 21:03Speaker 6: We'll get to that next.
- 21:04Speaker 8: It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
- 21:05Speaker 6: Lauren will be coming straight back. She gets in from
- 21:09Speaker 6: somebody that knows somebody.
- 21:10Speaker 8: She gets the details.
- 21:11Speaker 11: I'm the homegirl that knows a little bit about everything.
- 21:14Speaker 8: She be having the latest on this.
- 21:17Speaker 3: The latest with Lauren LaRosa.
- 21:20Speaker 8: Sometimes you have facts. Sometimes you have details. Sometimes you
- 21:22Speaker 8: have a little bit of everything.
- 21:24Speaker 19: Brought to you by Top Dog Law.
- 21:26Speaker 3: On The Breakfast Club.
- 21:29Speaker 11: Good morning, guys.
- 21:30Speaker 6: Good morning, Lo.
- 21:31Speaker 25: So before we get to Drewski, Estenel, some of the
- 21:34Speaker 25: other things, there was a report that went out over
- 21:37Speaker 25: the weekend that I wanted to talk about. But I
- 21:40Speaker 25: wanted to kind of clarify because it's a bit confusing.
- 21:42Speaker 25: So TMZ reported a story yesterday that there was a
- 21:45Speaker 25: Halloween party that went down over the weekend, Saturday night
- 21:49Speaker 25: at Jamie Foxx's house. And they reported that one person
- 21:52Speaker 25: was stabbed in the neck. There was a suspect that
- 21:54Speaker 25: was arrested for assault with a deadly weapon.
- 21:56Speaker 8: I have a Halloween party a week after Halloween.
- 21:58Speaker 11: I mean, people are probably still celebrating. I know in L.A.
- 22:00Speaker 11: people celebrate prior to, after.
- 22:03Speaker 2: Really?
- 22:03Speaker 6: Yeah, but yes.
- 22:04Speaker 11: But that's not the point I want to get to.
- 22:05Speaker 25: So the part that I want to get to is
- 22:07Speaker 25: that they're saying that when they spoke to law enforcement sources,
- 22:10Speaker 25: the deputies and the paramedics that responded to the party
- 22:12Speaker 25: at the house, there was a male that was found
- 22:14Speaker 25: with a stab wound. And it was a superficial wound
- 22:17Speaker 25: that was treated by paramedics at the house. But then
- 22:19Speaker 25: they also said that the party was organized by Jamie
- 22:21Speaker 25: Foxx's daughter. and elise um and if you look at
- 22:24Speaker 25: the videos there's a lot of younger people in the
- 22:26Speaker 25: videos they also say that jamie foxx they don't even
- 22:28Speaker 25: know if he was home or not but the way
- 22:30Speaker 25: that the story went out was as if this was
- 22:31Speaker 25: jamie foxx's party so it's a bit confusing whether it's
- 22:34Speaker 25: his party his daughters it sounds like a lot of.
- 22:36Speaker 8: People at his house though yeah i mean jesus christ
- 22:38Speaker 8: it's a.
- 22:39Speaker 25: Party yeah like i mean but i did i was
- 22:42Speaker 25: reading it that.
- 22:43Speaker 6: Was like a club that was like a party like
- 22:44Speaker 6: you invite your friends that was like we just invited
- 22:46Speaker 6: the whole la this.
- 22:47Speaker 25: Is yeah that's how but i've that's how house parties
- 22:49Speaker 25: be though, especially in Halloween season. But yeah, so, um,
- 22:53Speaker 25: I guess there will be more things that would, that
- 22:54Speaker 25: develop here, but I was just a bit confused because
- 22:57Speaker 25: it was picked up everywhere as Jamie Foxx through this party,
- 23:00Speaker 25: but then they're saying it was his daughter.
- 23:01Speaker 11: They don't even know he was there yet.
- 23:02Speaker 25: So, um, Yeah, but shifting gears a bit, let's come
- 23:07Speaker 25: on back over to New York because Drewski took the
- 23:09Speaker 25: SNL stage over the weekend, Saturday night.
- 23:12Speaker 7: I watched all of it from top to bottom. I
- 23:13Speaker 7: don't think I've ever done that. Well, I've done that
- 23:15Speaker 7: with SNL before, but it depends on who was hosting.
- 23:17Speaker 9: Okay.
- 23:17Speaker 8: I haven't done that in a while.
- 23:18Speaker 25: Well, let's kick off with Drewski's monologue, how he opened
- 23:21Speaker 25: the show.
- 23:22Speaker 11: Let's take a listen.
- 23:23Speaker 9: Apparently people saying I'm the first internet content creator, social
- 23:26Speaker 9: media influencer, only make you laugh on your phone, TikTok
- 23:30Speaker 9: and YouTube and Instagram and start hosting show. People say
- 23:35Speaker 9: a lot of things about me, honestly. Some people say
- 23:37Speaker 9: I look like a lesbian. Some people say I'm on Ozempic.
- 23:41Speaker 9: Could be lies, could be truth to that. Some people
- 23:44Speaker 9: say they only know me as a white woman. Listen,
- 23:48Speaker 9: I know y'all think SNL finna water me down tonight,
- 23:51Speaker 9: but no. There's just a few rules we gotta go over.
- 23:53Speaker 9: They said, number one, no cussing. I cannot promise that.
- 23:56Speaker 9: Number two, no white face. I also can't promise that.
- 23:59Speaker 9: That's about half the show right there. But honestly, this
- 24:03Speaker 9: is a huge moment for me growing up as a
- 24:05Speaker 9: fat kid from the suburbs.
- 24:08Speaker 4: Why y'all laughing?
- 24:10Speaker 9: My teachers never believed in me. So I just want
- 24:13Speaker 9: to say, yeah, I'm just lying. I just wanted to
- 24:14Speaker 9: say that because rappers be saying that type of stuff.
- 24:18Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 24:18Speaker 25: And then there was another part of his monologue where
- 24:20Speaker 25: he throws to his family because they were there in
- 24:22Speaker 25: the audience. So his grandma got to be a part
- 24:25Speaker 25: of the opening as well, too.
- 24:27Speaker 11: Oh, I love his little grandmother, y'all.
- 24:30Speaker 8: She delivered that line very well, too.
- 24:32Speaker 11: Yes, right on cue. Now, there were a ton of
- 24:34Speaker 11: sketches that Drewski did. Did you guys have any favorites?
- 24:37Speaker 6: Just a Dominican one.
- 24:39Speaker 7: Nah, I liked the one where he was acting like
- 24:41Speaker 7: he was in a documentary.
- 24:43Speaker 25: Drewski can see everything, yes. So let's take a listen
- 24:46Speaker 25: to the Dominican skit. Now, this is a sketch where
- 24:48Speaker 25: Drewski is working in a phone store, and there are
- 24:51Speaker 25: two guys that walk in to buy phones.
- 24:54Speaker 11: Let's take a listen.
- 24:57Speaker 18: We're kind of in a rush to get back to
- 25:05Speaker 18: the desk.
- 25:06Speaker 4: Oh, the desk. Papi, you hiding those legs behind the desk, eh, Papi?
- 25:10Speaker 2: Papi, you cannot hide these legs behind the desk, Papi.
- 25:12Speaker 7: Look at the beautiful legs, Papi.
- 25:15Speaker 2: Oh, my God.
- 25:16Speaker 16: Just so you guys know, I'm, like, not interested romantically
- 25:19Speaker 16: or anything like that.
- 25:20Speaker 4: Oh, Papa, we not gay. We Dominican.
- 25:25Speaker 2: We are not gay.
- 25:26Speaker 4: But if we were, this is not what we like, man.
- 25:32Speaker 11: Yeah, so he did that sketch with Marcelo Hernandez. Go ahead.
- 25:35Speaker 8: I mean, I enjoy seeing Dominicans be the butt of
- 25:38Speaker 8: jokes sometimes. I work with one. The way I make
- 25:42Speaker 8: him be the butt of the joke.
- 25:42Speaker 6: First of all, I'm not Dominican.
- 25:44Speaker 8: I enjoyed it.
- 25:45Speaker 6: Second of all, I thought that skit was funny.
- 25:47Speaker 8: Is he getting backlash?
- 25:49Speaker 13: I didn't see.
- 25:50Speaker 2: Dominicans have a.
- 25:51Speaker 8: Sense of humor.
- 25:53Speaker 11: We just said it was the funniest one.
- 25:54Speaker 6: Not only that, if you go to a cell store,
- 25:56Speaker 6: if you go to Patterson or anywhere, that's how it is.
- 25:59Speaker 6: They play Spanish music.
- 26:01Speaker 11: I saw people picking up the line that we're not gay,
- 26:04Speaker 11: we're Dominican.
- 26:05Speaker 8: I don't know.
- 26:05Speaker 11: Red, did you see Backlash?
- 26:06Speaker 17: I don't know.
- 26:06Speaker 11: It's not on my algorithm.
- 26:07Speaker 8: He's Puerto Rican.
- 26:07Speaker 6: He's not Dominican. He loves seeing Dominicans get made fun of.
- 26:10Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 26:13Speaker 25: He loves it yeah but so the other skit that
- 26:16Speaker 25: you were talking about charlamagne they titled it drew drew
- 26:19Speaker 25: can see everything it was a parody of uh nathan
- 26:21Speaker 25: fielder's hit documentary you can see everything it's a big
- 26:24Speaker 25: documentary right now about elizabeth holmes uh the woman who
- 26:27Speaker 25: defrauded in the tech space uh a bunch of a
- 26:29Speaker 25: bunch of people let's take a listen to that skit
- 26:31Speaker 25: drewski was in white face for this.
- 26:33Speaker 8: One we're so glad you're here Yeah, it's really important
- 26:37Speaker 8: to us that people find out who Liz really is.
- 26:41Speaker 4: I just want people to see me as an ordinary person.
- 26:43Speaker 6: Can you do that, Drewski?
- 26:45Speaker 9: Based on what I've seen so far, I'm going to
- 26:47Speaker 9: go ahead and say no.
- 26:48Speaker 8: Y'all got some of the weirdest, freakiest vibe I done
- 26:50Speaker 8: ever seen.
- 26:52Speaker 6: From A24 and Could Have Been Records comes Drew Can
- 26:55Speaker 6: See Everything.
- 26:57Speaker 11: So this was the prototype of the Edison, and it
- 27:00Speaker 11: can run over 100 different medical tests.
- 27:02Speaker 8: Okay, listen, white girl. I'm going to say this with
- 27:05Speaker 8: all love, right? This is the most Timu-ass piece I've
- 27:08Speaker 8: ever seen.
- 27:08Speaker 2: In my life.
- 27:12Speaker 11: Yeah, so.
- 27:12Speaker 8: I don't think whiteface is a thing either.
- 27:15Speaker 12: Why?
- 27:15Speaker 8: Because there's no historical... It's not.
- 27:18Speaker 7: A historical or social equivalent to blackface. I get why
- 27:20Speaker 7: you call it whiteface, but that's just Drewski dressing up
- 27:22Speaker 7: as a white woman.
- 27:23Speaker 8: He was dressed up like a white woman.
- 27:24Speaker 11: He was Elizabeth Holmes.
- 27:26Speaker 25: So in the documentary, Nathan is a comedian and he
- 27:29Speaker 25: goes and spends days with her right before she turns
- 27:32Speaker 25: herself in. And it's like a documentary, but it's supposed
- 27:35Speaker 25: to be something that helps her... Show people that she
- 27:37Speaker 25: wasn't guilty of what people found her guilty of. So
- 27:40Speaker 25: Drewski steps in to do that in his own sketch
- 27:42Speaker 25: and goes a little bit too deep in because he
- 27:45Speaker 25: literally becomes Elizabeth Holmes.
- 27:46Speaker 7: But I enjoyed it, man. I mean, Drewski did Drewski,
- 27:50Speaker 7: you know, like he didn't he didn't. I didn't look
- 27:52Speaker 7: at that and say, OK, SNL is trying to make
- 27:54Speaker 7: Drewski do anything. He was just doing him.
- 27:57Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 27:58Speaker 25: And a surprise pop up happened at the end. You
- 28:00Speaker 25: know how they come out to close out the show.
- 28:02Speaker 25: So when Drewski came out to close out the show,
- 28:04Speaker 25: you see Dave Chappelle, Michael B. Jordan, Chris Rock. Now,
- 28:08Speaker 25: Emma Stone was in his monologue and Michael B. Jordan,
- 28:10Speaker 25: he knew was there. But I was told that Dave
- 28:12Speaker 25: Chappelle and Chris Rock were a surprise to him.
- 28:15Speaker 11: He didn't even know that they were there. So, yeah.
- 28:17Speaker 11: Shout out to Drewski. Congratulations on SNL.
- 28:19Speaker 8: Oh, yeah.
- 28:20Speaker 2: Sure.
- 28:20Speaker 11: And that's a major milestone.
- 28:22Speaker 12: Yep.
- 28:22Speaker 17: Yes.
- 28:23Speaker 25: Now, in the next latest, when we come back, we're

- 29:15Speaker 11: How y'all doing this morning?
- 29:16Speaker 6: Good.
- 29:18Speaker 11: All right. Here we go.
- 29:19Speaker 15: Front Page News is sponsored by Morgan & Morgan, America's
- 29:22Speaker 15: largest injury law firm.
- 29:23Speaker 6: So, okay.
- 29:24Speaker 15: So, we start this hour in Philadelphia where we're learning
- 29:28Speaker 15: new details about the death of a 10-year-old girl in
- 29:31Speaker 15: foster care. We talked about this a little bit last Friday, guys.
- 29:34Speaker 15: Malaysia Alford, her.
- 29:36Speaker 13: Body was found last week in the trunk of a
- 29:37Speaker 13: car in New Jersey.
- 29:39Speaker 15: Her father was mother, 36-year-old Caprice Williams, is now charged
- 29:43Speaker 15: with her murder. But here's what's raising even more questions
- 29:47Speaker 15: this morning. An attorney representing Malaysia's estate says Williams had
- 29:52Speaker 15: already been declared unfit to foster children after abusing a
- 29:57Speaker 15: four-year-old girl back in 2021. Now, that child reportedly suffered beatings, bruises,
- 30:02Speaker 15: and had severe malnutrition.
- 30:04Speaker 13: Let's listen to the attorney.
- 30:06Speaker 18: I can tell you right now, knowing what I know
- 30:08Speaker 18: about the prior case, report or the prior closing of
- 30:13Speaker 18: her home that Malaysia's debt was entirely preventable. And it
- 30:18Speaker 18: should not have occurred at the hands of this foster
- 30:21Speaker 18: care parent that had already, already subjected a small child
- 30:25Speaker 18: to what they call a near fatality.
- 30:31Speaker 7: There should be a different level of torture. Like we
- 30:33Speaker 7: need to bring back medieval torture tactics. for people who
- 30:36Speaker 7: do things like that to kids, man.
- 30:38Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 30:39Speaker 15: You know, even despite all of that, Malaysia was later
- 30:42Speaker 15: placed in William's care after reportedly being moved, removed from another.
- 30:47Speaker 13: Foster care home because of abuse.
- 30:49Speaker 15: So she went from one home that was abusing her
- 30:51Speaker 15: to another home that was abusing her.
- 30:53Speaker 24: Where are all these case agents and all the agents
- 30:56Speaker 24: that should have been checking these houses?
- 30:57Speaker 15: The foster mother, she worked as a teacher and now
- 31:00Speaker 15: parents of the children that she taught are speaking out
- 31:03Speaker 15: about their experiences with her.
- 31:05Speaker 13: We have some of that.
- 31:06Speaker 21: When we finally saw who was arrested for committing that
- 31:10Speaker 21: heinous crime, it was like it was a gut punch,
- 31:12Speaker 21: not only for me, but for my family. She did
- 31:16Speaker 21: a lot in breaking my son's confidence when he was
- 31:19Speaker 21: with her. And we are still doing work to rebuild him.
- 31:22Speaker 21: It's very disheartening to know that that type of person
- 31:26Speaker 21: was allowed to teach. my child.
- 31:29Speaker 5: She would pick one kid. She used to pick on
- 31:31Speaker 5: both of my daughters. She wasn't a nice person at all.
- 31:33Speaker 5: I'm not exactly sure. I don't even think she really
- 31:35Speaker 5: liked the kids. I think she just did the job
- 31:38Speaker 5: just to do the job. My kids would always tell
- 31:40Speaker 5: me how she would just be really mean to them.
- 31:44Speaker 8: So how all of y'all know that, but ain't none
- 31:45Speaker 8: of y'all ever checked that?
- 31:46Speaker 2: That's my point.
- 31:47Speaker 6: There's no systems in play.
- 31:48Speaker 7: I hate when stuff happens and everybody all of a
- 31:51Speaker 7: sudden tells you.
- 31:51Speaker 8: I knew that. If you knew, so why you ain't
- 31:54Speaker 8: do something about it?
- 31:54Speaker 6: But not only that, where's the caseworkers? Where's the systems
- 31:57Speaker 6: that they put in place and the protocols that they
- 31:58Speaker 6: put in place?
- 31:59Speaker 8: Man, where's the hands getting put on people, man? Playing
- 32:01Speaker 8: with people's children.
- 32:02Speaker 7: I'm hearing all of these parents talk about how this
- 32:05Speaker 7: woman was playing with their kids, why she didn't get
- 32:07Speaker 7: her ass whipped by the village.
- 32:09Speaker 8: Sometimes it's okay for the village to gather around and
- 32:11Speaker 8: whip their ass.
- 32:11Speaker 6: But sometimes when you do have a mean teacher or
- 32:14Speaker 6: a teacher that treats kids wrong, right, what they usually
- 32:16Speaker 6: do is they take the kids out of the class
- 32:18Speaker 6: because they usually say it's the kid's fault. It's not
- 32:20Speaker 6: the parent. It's not the teacher, I should say. But
- 32:22Speaker 6: in this case, with so many complaints, these caseworkers should
- 32:26Speaker 6: have been on her ass.
- 32:27Speaker 17: Yeah.
- 32:28Speaker 13: It's the complaints, it's the prior abuse, it's everything, right?
- 32:32Speaker 15: And so the system in Philadelphia, they are under investigation
- 32:35Speaker 15: right now because, of course, all of this is raising
- 32:37Speaker 15: serious questions about.
- 32:39Speaker 13: Who approved her placement, why nobody checked on her.
- 32:42Speaker 15: How she was able to get back into a home
- 32:44Speaker 15: that should have been closed in the first place. So,
- 32:47Speaker 15: so many questions that people just still don't have the
- 32:49Speaker 15: answers for this morning.
- 32:50Speaker 13: What were you saying, Chef?
- 32:51Speaker 7: You ever been in Ghana and you see somebody steal
- 32:53Speaker 7: out a marketplace and they have what you call... instant
- 32:55Speaker 7: justice or mob justice, they'll beat your ass right in there.
- 32:59Speaker 7: It's illegal, right? But they do it. Some things got
- 33:03Speaker 7: to be done, man. Like, you can't be hearing about
- 33:05Speaker 7: some teacher that's just out here, you know, abusing kids,
- 33:08Speaker 7: whether it's emotionally, physically, mentally, and you don't hear about
- 33:11Speaker 7: nothing happening to them?
- 33:12Speaker 6: Right, but these people, people get paid to do a
- 33:15Speaker 6: job to make sure these kids are placed in a
- 33:17Speaker 6: certain place. And the fact that this place was supposed
- 33:19Speaker 6: to be closed and this young girl went there anyway,
- 33:22Speaker 6: the fact that this person had prior problems and she
- 33:25Speaker 6: was still able to watch kids like that's a problem.
- 33:28Speaker 6: People are getting paid. They're supposed to be doing their
- 33:29Speaker 6: job and they're not doing their job.
- 33:31Speaker 8: And being that we know they're not going to do
- 33:32Speaker 8: their job, that's why you whip ass.
- 33:33Speaker 11: Put hands on people.
- 33:35Speaker 8: That's why it's okay.
- 33:36Speaker 6: Because imagine if you were a father. You wouldn't whip
- 33:37Speaker 6: her ass. You wouldn't whip the caseworker's ass. You wouldn't
- 33:39Speaker 6: whip the person's ass that was supposed to check on
- 33:40Speaker 6: the house. You wouldn't whip everybody's ass.
- 33:42Speaker 8: You got some hands, then. You got some face to
- 33:44Speaker 8: hand up.
- 33:46Speaker 13: Really quickly, guys, I wanted to move on to the
- 33:48Speaker 13: next story before we run out of time.
- 33:49Speaker 15: The University of Mississippi, they are investigating a racist incident
- 33:53Speaker 15: that was caught on camera that has now gone viral.
- 33:56Speaker 15: So the video appears to show three white female students
- 33:59Speaker 15: outside an apartment where shared by three black students with
- 34:03Speaker 15: two of the women making monkey sounds and one beating
- 34:06Speaker 15: her chest.
- 34:07Speaker 13: Let's listen.
- 34:17Speaker 7: Excellent execution of monkey sounds. They really sounded like monkeys.
- 34:21Speaker 7: They sounded like monkeys. That was very good. They practiced that.
- 34:27Speaker 7: That wasn't their first time.
- 34:29Speaker 13: Must not be the first time.
- 34:30Speaker 15: The footage was captured Friday night by a ring doorbell
- 34:33Speaker 15: camera and it was posted online. The women who captured
- 34:37Speaker 15: that video say those women, the white women, are their
- 34:39Speaker 15: upstairs neighbors. Now, Ole Miss, the university, they said that
- 34:44Speaker 15: they are investigating. They've reached out to the students who
- 34:47Speaker 15: were targeted, and they called the behavior offensive, hurtful, and unacceptable.
- 34:52Speaker 13: But so far, we haven't.
- 34:53Speaker 15: Heard of any disciplinary action that has not been announced
- 34:57Speaker 15: so far.
- 34:58Speaker 7: All you got to do is just go upstairs and
- 34:59Speaker 7: walk back and forth in front of that ring camera.
- 35:02Speaker 1: Crash!
- 35:02Speaker 8: Cracker.
- 35:03Speaker 2: Okay.
- 35:04Speaker 6: You know.
- 35:04Speaker 8: Crackers.
- 35:05Speaker 4: Crackers. That's all you got to do. What's up with y'all, man?
- 35:08Speaker 6: Or you just put a speaker up. If it's your
- 35:10Speaker 6: upstairs neighbor and you play it like three, four in
- 35:12Speaker 6: the morning. Cracker.
- 35:13Speaker 4: Cracker.
- 35:15Speaker 6: Let's keep doing it.
- 35:15Speaker 8: You need to borrow my drop? Play it again, Red.
- 35:18Speaker 15: Cracker.
- 35:19Speaker 11: That's it.
- 35:20Speaker 4: Just walk back and forth.
- 35:21Speaker 8: That's a perfect walk back and forth cracker. Say it.
- 35:23Speaker 11: Do it again, Red.
- 35:24Speaker 8: Walking back and forth. Walk past.
- 35:26Speaker 3: Cracker.
- 35:27Speaker 4: You walk past it.
- 35:28Speaker 8: You come back again the other way.
- 35:30Speaker 4: That's it.
- 35:31Speaker 6: I would do Chris Rock.
- 35:34Speaker 8: We complicate these things too much. That's what I would do.
- 35:37Speaker 8: That hit on the ring camera, but you're walking past.
- 35:39Speaker 8: You got to think you're walking past.
- 35:40Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying?
- 35:40Speaker 8: So you're walking past.
- 35:41Speaker 4: Yeah, man.
- 35:44Speaker 11: You got to laugh when they, ooh, you can't even
- 35:47Speaker 11: get mad. You know what I'm saying?
- 35:49Speaker 6: You can't get mad at that.
- 35:49Speaker 2: That's all.
- 35:50Speaker 8: That's all.
- 35:51Speaker 2: What's up?
- 35:52Speaker 8: We complicating this. She right upstairs. She right upstairs. I'm
- 35:57Speaker 8: sure they got a ring camera, too.
- 35:58Speaker 2: Right upstairs.
- 35:58Speaker 6: And that roll with a little fade, like you said, too.
- 36:00Speaker 8: Nah, that don't require a fade.
- 36:02Speaker 11: Nah, I know, but like, nah, that's what they want. Nah,
- 36:05Speaker 11: you got it.
- 36:06Speaker 7: That one don't require a fade, though. She did it
- 36:07Speaker 7: on a ring camera. Just go up there and do it.

- 36:36Speaker 11: Good morning.
- 36:36Speaker 6: Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Just Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha God.
- 36:40Speaker 6: We are The Breakfast Club. Marlon Rose is here as well.
- 36:43Speaker 8: We got a special guest in the building. Yes, indeed.
- 36:45Speaker 4: Big X to plug.
- 36:46Speaker 8: He's back.
- 36:47Speaker 2: How you feeling, brother?
- 36:48Speaker 1: What's up?
- 36:48Speaker 2: I can't complain. I can't complain at all.
- 36:50Speaker 7: Man, I'm blessed black and highly favored, man. I mean,
- 36:53Speaker 7: I've been watching the interviews that you've been doing, man,
- 36:55Speaker 7: listening to the album. And the only thing I keep
- 36:58Speaker 7: thinking is like, man, it's like the success you've been
- 37:00Speaker 7: praying for finally came.
- 37:01Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 37:02Speaker 8: But it doesn't feel like it fixed everything.
- 37:04Speaker 2: You thought it would. No, it fixed everything I thought
- 37:06Speaker 2: it was going to fix.
- 37:06Speaker 6: Financially, it has.
- 37:07Speaker 8: Financially, but not the other stuff.
- 37:10Speaker 2: Yeah, that wasn't stuff that we was thinking about, though.
- 37:11Speaker 2: You know, we thinking about just providing. So we're able
- 37:13Speaker 2: to do that.
- 37:14Speaker 8: What was the most difficult part, then?
- 37:16Speaker 2: I mean, life. But at the end of the day,
- 37:17Speaker 2: life's on life. Nothing can stop that. That's why I'm
- 37:21Speaker 2: at a realization. That's why I realized that life's on life.
- 37:23Speaker 2: Try not to trip about it, just keep moving.
- 37:26Speaker 11: On the song, I finally get it. It's like that.
- 37:29Speaker 25: It's like you are like, okay, I understand. I see
- 37:31Speaker 25: the chessboard now. What was that first time where you
- 37:34Speaker 25: had to sit back and be like, oh, I can't
- 37:37Speaker 25: do this for this person.
- 37:38Speaker 13: I can't.
- 37:39Speaker 2: Really, just kind of like recently. You know what I'm saying?
- 37:41Speaker 2: Just sitting back. realizing me being in the situation that
- 37:45Speaker 2: I am within myself and just seeing that people still asking,
- 37:48Speaker 2: people still doing, people still, and ain't nobody really, you
- 37:51Speaker 2: know what I'm saying? So I just, hey, everybody's life
- 37:54Speaker 2: is going to keep going. It's just like when you're
- 37:57Speaker 2: in jail. You're in jail, but everybody else's life is
- 37:59Speaker 2: still going. So I'm in the situation I'm in, but
- 38:02Speaker 2: everybody else's life is still going. Life is going to
- 38:04Speaker 2: keep going, so I can't, you know, yeah.
- 38:06Speaker 7: These are the people you're talking about, the people that
- 38:07Speaker 7: you even have living around you? Because I saw you
- 38:10Speaker 7: say that you bought this whole.
- 38:11Speaker 11: compound.
- 38:12Speaker 2: Yeah, it's people around me, people that I'm trying to,
- 38:15Speaker 2: you know, it's everybody. It's life.
- 38:18Speaker 6: The last time you were up here, you said you
- 38:19Speaker 6: bought a, like Charlamagne said, a compound.
- 38:21Speaker 8: Where you had everybody there, right?
- 38:23Speaker 18: Yeah.
- 38:23Speaker 8: But that could get overwhelming too because now it's, you
- 38:25Speaker 8: don't have.
- 38:26Speaker 2: That space to breathe.
- 38:27Speaker 8: It's everybody continue to ask.
- 38:28Speaker 2: I got the house. I just bought the land to
- 38:31Speaker 2: start the compound.
- 38:32Speaker 8: Okay.
- 38:33Speaker 2: Yeah, but I got a house out. Every woman in
- 38:36Speaker 2: my life staying in it, my mama, my granny, my sister.
- 38:39Speaker 2: But now it's like, I'm getting them calls from Amy,
- 38:43Speaker 2: my cousins, on both sides. You know what I'm saying? So,
- 38:46Speaker 2: you know, I try to eliminate those extra calls, that
- 38:48Speaker 2: extra stress, and just put everybody on the same lane.
- 38:51Speaker 2: You can't really count about too much.
- 38:53Speaker 8: Does that put a lot more pressure on you?
- 38:54Speaker 2: But it's much pressure that I feel like it'll put
- 38:56Speaker 2: on me to take off a lot, too. Because, like,
- 38:58Speaker 2: instead of paying the mortgage, you know, I'm already doing everything. So,
- 39:02Speaker 2: we ain't really got to worry about those calls.
- 39:03Speaker 6: Steve, who do you talk to about that?
- 39:05Speaker 11: Like, who do you go to?
- 39:06Speaker 24: You're the provider for everybody, but who provides you with, like, peace?
- 39:10Speaker 8: Who's the plug for?
- 39:11Speaker 11: Yeah, who, yeah.
- 39:12Speaker 2: My peace just really comes from being around, like, stuff
- 39:15Speaker 2: that I was around before I was famous. So that's why, like,
- 39:19Speaker 2: you're going to see my same friends from before I
- 39:21Speaker 2: was rapping. You're going to see just everything that I
- 39:23Speaker 2: indulge in, it's always the same as before I was rapping.
- 39:26Speaker 2: Because that's what makes me feel, I guess, more comfortable
- 39:29Speaker 2: with myself. far as a woman, I never really get
- 39:32Speaker 2: to give my all to another woman because I don't trust.
- 39:35Speaker 2: As far as a new friend, I didn't try that.
- 39:37Speaker 2: I never have no more new friends. I don't even
- 39:38Speaker 2: have friends no more. Anybody that you see around me,
- 39:40Speaker 2: I don't call them my friend. I've already told them,
- 39:42Speaker 2: you're my brother, or you're my sister, you know what
- 39:45Speaker 2: I'm saying? You're family now. It's family. So, because, yeah, friends,
- 39:48Speaker 2: new people, people that wasn't there before, they don't understand
- 39:52Speaker 2: what you have to do to get here. So it's
- 39:53Speaker 2: easy for them to... Yeah, everybody now, it's just family.
- 39:56Speaker 8: You named it better over time. That's the name of
- 39:58Speaker 8: the album.
- 39:59Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 39:59Speaker 8: So what's gotten better besides the music and the money?
- 40:02Speaker 2: The music, the money.
- 40:03Speaker 8: What's gotten better besides that?
- 40:06Speaker 2: Man, just everybody around me, from my cousins to just
- 40:10Speaker 2: my team, my family, everybody is in the way. I
- 40:13Speaker 2: just bought my granny a new Cadillac CT5, whatever. And
- 40:19Speaker 2: she told me I've never had a car with a button.
- 40:23Speaker 12: Wow.
- 40:23Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying? She just told me I've
- 40:26Speaker 2: been alive almost 60-something years, and I've never had to
- 40:30Speaker 2: wake up and not worry about how I was going
- 40:31Speaker 2: to pay a bill. Now she can do that. So
- 40:34Speaker 2: that's the better of them.
- 40:35Speaker 24: You got a song called Burn on the album, and
- 40:37Speaker 24: it talks about betrayal and people switching up on you.
- 40:40Speaker 24: Was that inspired by someone specifically, something that happened to you,
- 40:44Speaker 24: an industry, friends?
- 40:46Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely. I mean, it happened. You coming up, like
- 40:50Speaker 2: I said, you obviously put on your people, right? But
- 40:52Speaker 2: sometimes you got your people that they understand that I'm not.
- 40:57Speaker 2: I can't really be around right now because I still
- 40:59Speaker 2: got what I got going on. But I'm just I'm
- 41:02Speaker 2: just this is just me. I got a heart where
- 41:03Speaker 2: it's like anybody that I see is a hard worker
- 41:06Speaker 2: that I know and that listen, I'm willing to help.
- 41:09Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying? And so I did that
- 41:11Speaker 2: with a lot of different situations, just people trying to
- 41:14Speaker 2: help people, put people in positions. And, you know, they
- 41:16Speaker 2: just use it and use it and use it until
- 41:18Speaker 2: I finally just couldn't. doing them. I'm doing more than
- 41:21Speaker 2: you are doing. You can't keep doing that. And now
- 41:24Speaker 2: I'm the problem. I don't know how to react to
- 41:26Speaker 2: that because I've never, growing up, I've always been the problem.
- 41:29Speaker 2: I was always the one that was actually f * * *
- 41:30Speaker 2: ing up. So now I'm looking at it like, here
- 41:32Speaker 2: I am doing way better for other people and I'm
- 41:36Speaker 2: still the problem. It had me going against myself and
- 41:39Speaker 2: that's where I feel like the whole sadness situation came
- 41:43Speaker 2: from within me is because that's, my partners will tell you,
- 41:45Speaker 2: I ain't never, that's one thing I'll never go against
- 41:47Speaker 2: is myself.
- 41:48Speaker 8: But those people are ungrateful.
- 41:50Speaker 2: For sure.
- 41:50Speaker 7: And the reason that they're ungrateful is because you did
- 41:52Speaker 7: something for them, but it's never enough.
- 41:54Speaker 2: For sure. You're absolutely right. My heart is just so
- 41:58Speaker 2: me that I kept letting people do it because it's,
- 42:01Speaker 2: I look at it now, once we done made money together,
- 42:04Speaker 2: once we done did what we did, you're family. You
- 42:06Speaker 2: know what I'm saying? Like in my eyes, you're my partner.
- 42:08Speaker 8: Like, But don't be the people who take advantage of
- 42:09Speaker 8: you the most.
- 42:10Speaker 2: No, for sure, for sure.
- 42:11Speaker 6: I mean, remember last time you came up here, the
- 42:12Speaker 6: first time you were at the Breakfast Club, you didn't
- 42:14Speaker 6: come by yourself.
- 42:15Speaker 8: You brought your whole crew with you.
- 42:16Speaker 11: I was going to ask you.
- 42:17Speaker 6: You brought six artists with you.
- 42:18Speaker 8: Well, it was a group album. I mean, it was
- 42:20Speaker 8: promoting a group album.
- 42:21Speaker 11: But still, this was the first time X was here.
- 42:24Speaker 25: Is it you being the businessman of 600 Entertainment, or
- 42:26Speaker 25: is it not in relation to that?
- 42:28Speaker 11: Is that the conversation that we're having right now?
- 42:29Speaker 2: It's just everything. The people who you would think would
- 42:33Speaker 2: respect and appreciate you the most are the ones that
- 42:37Speaker 2: don't give a * * * *. And it just
- 42:40Speaker 2: took me a while to realize that, you know what
- 42:42Speaker 2: I'm saying? Like a lot of people, when you say no,
- 42:44Speaker 2: I probably should start saying no a lot sooner. Because
- 42:46Speaker 2: then I would have been able to see.
- 42:47Speaker 8: A lot of different ways to say it. Say no,
- 42:49Speaker 8: hell no.
- 42:51Speaker 4: No.
- 42:51Speaker 8: Bitch, no.
- 42:52Speaker 6: Okay?
- 42:53Speaker 8: I'm just saying.
- 42:56Speaker 2: That's not me. I don't really. Even if I take.
- 43:00Speaker 2: I'm the type to. You can ask me for something.
- 43:01Speaker 2: I'm not going to say no. I'm like, what do
- 43:03Speaker 2: you need it for? And then once you. Okay, well,
- 43:05Speaker 2: when do you need it by? I can never just
- 43:07Speaker 2: say no. Unless it's just some dumb ass shit. Get
- 43:10Speaker 2: the fuck out of my face. But other than that,
- 43:12Speaker 2: my security guard said all the time. He be trying to.
- 43:14Speaker 2: The benefit of the doubt. That's what I be doing.
- 43:17Speaker 2: I'm trying to give people the benefit of the doubt.
- 43:18Speaker 2: And I just look at it as, I'm blessed. So
- 43:20Speaker 2: why not help people and try to bless other people?
- 43:22Speaker 2: But I did myself in the hands.
- 43:25Speaker 7: How do you tell the difference between somebody who genuinely
- 43:27Speaker 7: needs your help and somebody who's taking advantage of you?
- 43:29Speaker 2: You don't. You can't.
- 43:31Speaker 4: That's right.
- 43:32Speaker 2: People will look at you and have Alderman in the
- 43:33Speaker 2: red in their pocket, but will still cry and say, man,
- 43:36Speaker 2: I can't pay my bills.
- 43:37Speaker 8: My mama dead.
- 43:39Speaker 2: So.
- 43:39Speaker 4: I'm serious.
- 43:42Speaker 12: So, yeah.
- 43:42Speaker 7: The story's be, the lady caught up here this morning
- 43:45Speaker 7: talking about she tired all these sob stories.
- 43:46Speaker 11: Oh my God, yeah. She's like, my mama, her leg
- 43:49Speaker 11: got amputated and all of that. And then they be
- 43:51Speaker 11: looking for money.
- 43:52Speaker 6: It's like, no.
- 43:53Speaker 11: Matter how much money we send you, it ain't going
- 43:55Speaker 11: to put her leg back.
- 43:56Speaker 8: He does that.
- 43:56Speaker 6: Because when people call up here, If you tell him
- 43:59Speaker 6: the right story, he'll send you a cash app.
- 44:01Speaker 2: For sure.
- 44:02Speaker 6: I'm like that.
- 44:03Speaker 8: I'm like that. I'm like how you are. If I
- 44:05Speaker 8: can help, I'm going to help.
- 44:06Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying?
- 44:07Speaker 7: Because my mindset is God is never going to judge.
- 44:11Speaker 8: Me based off how people treat me. He's going to
- 44:12Speaker 8: judge me based off how I treat people.
- 44:14Speaker 3: For sure.
- 44:14Speaker 2: And the thing is, they sit back and they watch
- 44:17Speaker 2: everything you do. Whenever you say, oh, no, I can't
- 44:20Speaker 2: right now. Oh, you just did this at the club
- 44:22Speaker 2: the other day.
- 44:24Speaker 6: You just gave somebody on the radio and you don't
- 44:26Speaker 6: even know them.
- 44:27Speaker 8: And I'm fed all the time.
- 44:28Speaker 2: Me being me, I'd be like, damn, you're right. If
- 44:31Speaker 2: I just gave that person and did that, then I
- 44:33Speaker 2: can do this for you. But it's like you're either
- 44:35Speaker 2: coming at it the wrong way or you're lying. And
- 44:38Speaker 2: I know you are, but because I'm me, I still
- 44:40Speaker 2: do it. It's like I can't even say they got
- 44:43Speaker 2: me here. I got myself here. Because like I said,
- 44:46Speaker 2: it was me going against myself. It wasn't them doing
- 44:48Speaker 2: what they was doing. It was me knowing this is
- 44:50Speaker 2: not right. This is not how it's supposed to go.
- 44:52Speaker 2: This is not. And I still was like, nah, X,
- 44:54Speaker 2: you got it. You might as well. So it was
- 44:56Speaker 2: my fault.
- 44:57Speaker 25: What more compilation projects unless it's you and Rosama?
- 45:00Speaker 2: Oh, me, Rosama, Young Hood, for sure. The same people
- 45:03Speaker 2: I came in with is probably the same people I'm
- 45:05Speaker 2: going to leave out of here with. Have you done
- 45:07Speaker 2: cut the whole group off already? I ain't cut nobody off.
- 45:09Speaker 2: I ain't cut nobody off.
- 45:11Speaker 6: It was six last time.
- 45:12Speaker 8: It was only a year ago, wasn't it?
- 45:14Speaker 2: Dang it. So it wasn't even a year ago. And
- 45:18Speaker 2: out of all of those people, whose name have y'all
- 45:20Speaker 2: heard since then other than me? That's crazy.
- 45:23Speaker 8: Has having money bought you peace or is it just
- 45:26Speaker 8: a different.
- 45:26Speaker 3: Set of problems?
- 45:27Speaker 2: Nah, it's not. Having money ain't no problem. It's real.
- 45:31Speaker 8: It's real.
- 45:32Speaker 2: I would have rather had, well, no, let me not
- 45:34Speaker 2: say that because it's really the fame. It's really the
- 45:36Speaker 2: people seeing me on this and seeing me on that.
- 45:39Speaker 2: Places that you see rich people on, you know what
- 45:41Speaker 2: I'm saying? Like, on one of the songs, I said,
- 45:43Speaker 2: I don't want to be on the Forbes list because
- 45:45Speaker 2: as soon as I make the Forbes list, that's when
- 45:46Speaker 2: they're going to want it.
- 45:47Speaker 12: Yeah.
- 45:47Speaker 2: That's the s * * * I don't want. That
- 45:49Speaker 2: TV s * * *, the internet s * * *,
- 45:51Speaker 2: that's what made people feel like.
- 45:52Speaker 11: He was on the list. Yeah, he was.
- 45:54Speaker 8: 200 million dollars.
- 45:57Speaker 2: Could you stop?
- 45:58Speaker 8: You got it.
- 45:59Speaker 6: That's what I'm saying.
- 46:00Speaker 4: You see what I'm saying?
- 46:02Speaker 8: That's how you be giving Big X a thousand and.
- 46:05Speaker 22: My people see that.
- 46:07Speaker 4: That's right.
- 46:07Speaker 2: Oh yeah, you for sure.
- 46:08Speaker 8: You for sure can get because you got it.
- 46:10Speaker 11: You don't do it.
- 46:11Speaker 3: You don't do it.
- 46:12Speaker 8: You don't do it. No, on FAF, with Glorilla, right?
- 46:16Speaker 8: Fake ass friend.
- 46:17Speaker 7: Have you ever had to accept that you might have
- 46:19Speaker 7: been the problem in a friendship that ended?
- 46:22Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 46:22Speaker 2: Yeah, a lot of my friendships, I was the problem.
- 46:25Speaker 2: Because I was the enabler. I started a trend, and
- 46:29Speaker 2: I was doing, and I was doing, and I was doing.
- 46:31Speaker 2: And even when they weren't doing, nothing for me. So
- 46:34Speaker 2: they thought that that was the norm. That's the norm.
- 46:37Speaker 2: I be wondering if that make us fake. And what
- 46:39Speaker 2: I mean by that is, because you can just tell
- 46:41Speaker 2: that person. But it does.
- 46:42Speaker 8: Like, I might go complain to everybody else about that
- 46:45Speaker 8: person instead of telling that individual.
- 46:46Speaker 2: No, I tell them. I tell them. I tell them.
- 46:49Speaker 8: But I wait too late, and then I say something crazy.
- 46:51Speaker 2: Yeah, because I wait and go say something to my
- 46:54Speaker 2: original group, and they'll be like, nah, you're not tripping.
- 46:57Speaker 2: Because I always want to make sure I'm not tripping. Yes, same.
- 46:59Speaker 2: Because a lot of times people will be feeling like, oh,
- 47:01Speaker 2: because whenever I get on somebody, I get on them.
- 47:04Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying? Because it's not out of, oh,
- 47:06Speaker 2: I'm the big dog. It's out of love. Like, no,
- 47:08Speaker 2: I'm bringing you around so that you can be the
- 47:10Speaker 2: best you can be, and you're not giving that. You're
- 47:12Speaker 2: wasting me and your time. What are we doing that for?
- 47:15Speaker 2: To answer the question... You've been the problem. Yeah, I
- 47:17Speaker 2: was the problem. And the enabler. Like I said, the
- 47:20Speaker 2: enabler is, I've done it with my mom. That was
- 47:23Speaker 2: the first person I ever enabled. When I first got
- 47:25Speaker 2: some money, I did everything my mama needed to do.
- 47:28Speaker 2: That's what a son is supposed to do. But I'm
- 47:30Speaker 2: not knowing that my mama is slipping and doing that
- 47:33Speaker 2: she wasn't supposed to be doing because of a dude.
- 47:36Speaker 2: And my mama was going through some stuff that she
- 47:38Speaker 2: was never supposed to go through while her son was
- 47:39Speaker 2: having the time of his life.
- 47:40Speaker 8: Well, you didn't even know.
- 47:41Speaker 2: I don't know. I knew because. Okay, okay. Yeah, but
- 47:44Speaker 2: it was just something where it's like she was too
- 47:45Speaker 2: far in with the dude and in her situation that
- 47:47Speaker 2: I couldn't, once I knew, I couldn't do nothing about it. Damn. Yeah,
- 47:51Speaker 2: but I mean, me and my mama cool now. She's,
- 47:53Speaker 2: you know, she's, she stay with me. You know what
- 47:55Speaker 2: I'm saying? That's the care of my daughter when I'm
- 47:58Speaker 2: not there, so.
- 47:59Speaker 25: Is that why now you're so, I saw in Club
- 48:01Speaker 25: Shay Shay, you said they don't have men around them,
- 48:03Speaker 25: you take care of them until a man can come
- 48:05Speaker 25: and show them that they can do more than you can.
- 48:07Speaker 11: Is that why you're kind of protective of them?
- 48:08Speaker 2: Yes, ma'am. Yes, ma'am. Because I, I'd never put my
- 48:11Speaker 2: mama through that again. I'm not even going to let
- 48:13Speaker 2: my sisters go. I basically raised my sisters. My sisters,
- 48:16Speaker 2: they don't have, they have dads, but they have sperm donors.
- 48:19Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying? But I was the one
- 48:22Speaker 2: that was there for my, whether I was providing or not.
- 48:24Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying? I was just always the
- 48:26Speaker 2: male figure. And then my granny, my granny done, she's
- 48:29Speaker 2: always been the man. You know what I'm saying? Even
- 48:31Speaker 2: when she was married, she was always there. the man,
- 48:33Speaker 2: the provider, the one that everybody went to. So I
- 48:35Speaker 2: just look at it as, okay, bet y'all went through
- 48:38Speaker 2: everything y'all was going through because either a man wasn't
- 48:41Speaker 2: there or he was there, but he wasn't stepping up
- 48:44Speaker 2: like he was supposed to. So everything that I seen
- 48:46Speaker 2: that they weren't doing, I'm that now. You know what
- 48:48Speaker 2: I'm saying? And I'm the man that I feel like
- 48:50Speaker 2: they all need to be.
- 48:51Speaker 8: Well, man, did you ever feel like genuinely welcomed in
- 48:54Speaker 8: the country music?
- 48:54Speaker 2: For sure. Okay. Oh, man. Them, Listen, the country world
- 48:59Speaker 2: is a whole different world. They are so open arms
- 49:03Speaker 2: with everything. They knew I had never did a lick
- 49:06Speaker 2: of country music, but they was willing, from producers to
- 49:09Speaker 2: engineers to artists. I didn't pay for none of them features.
- 49:13Speaker 2: And some of them, Post Malone, Jelly Roll, Luke Combs,
- 49:17Speaker 2: them big names. Them was just people that... wanted to genuinely,
- 49:21Speaker 2: they seen that I was trying to do something that
- 49:23Speaker 2: hadn't been done and they was willing to help. And
- 49:25Speaker 2: we did. We made history.
- 49:26Speaker 8: Luke Combs, my guy. I love Luke Combs.
- 49:28Speaker 2: That's my guy.
- 49:29Speaker 25: The audience and country music response to you was, we
- 49:31Speaker 25: were at the iHeart Festival, not this year, the year before,
- 49:35Speaker 25: and when you came out, they went crazy.
- 49:36Speaker 2: I was like, oh, wow.
- 49:37Speaker 25: Because we hear the opposite. We always hear that it's
- 49:40Speaker 25: so hard for Black artists to.
- 49:41Speaker 11: Break in that world.
- 49:43Speaker 2: I'm going to be honest. If I would have just
- 49:45Speaker 2: went with a whole tape of just me, it might
- 49:49Speaker 2: have been a little rocky. But I feel like the
- 49:52Speaker 2: fact that they seen that I was trying, like, I'm
- 49:54Speaker 2: not just trying to come over here and take over y'all's, Yeah,
- 49:58Speaker 2: I'm coming and trying to, you know, I'm trying to
- 50:00Speaker 2: see what it's about. I'm trying to, you know, I
- 50:02Speaker 2: need help. Help me. And they was like, okay, big. So, yeah,
- 50:06Speaker 2: it's just, it's different when you walk in somebody's territory
- 50:08Speaker 2: and try to take over that. And when you're just
- 50:10Speaker 2: trying to come and just blend in with them.
- 50:12Speaker 8: Oh, you're just in the state of country lane for
- 50:14Speaker 8: a second. Like, what made you come back with?
- 50:15Speaker 2: That was the longest album I've ever done. From the
- 50:19Speaker 2: recording sessions to the, because it's just different. Like, when
- 50:22Speaker 2: you're rapping, you can talk about, I can talk about
- 50:24Speaker 2: this ring I got on, this watch I got on.
- 50:27Speaker 2: these chains and some property and got a song. You
- 50:31Speaker 2: got to genuinely be going through something. You got to
- 50:35Speaker 2: genuinely be going through something to make some country music.
- 50:37Speaker 2: And so like my first couple of recording sessions, it
- 50:40Speaker 2: wasn't a, just a session. Like it was, so what
- 50:42Speaker 2: is country music? Like what is country music to you?
- 50:45Speaker 2: And every time I got the same responses, whiskey and heartbreak.
- 50:48Speaker 2: And so when I first started making it, I wasn't
- 50:50Speaker 2: going through a, I wouldn't say a heartbreak at the time,
- 50:53Speaker 2: but halfway through that I was, you know what I'm saying?
- 50:55Speaker 2: And so, I started to understand. And then I just had,
- 50:58Speaker 2: like I said, my producers and Roe. We was all
- 51:02Speaker 2: locked in. Like I said, we'd wake up, go to
- 51:04Speaker 2: sleep every day together. And so when they was waking up,
- 51:07Speaker 2: hearing me on them phones, hollering, going back and forth,
- 51:09Speaker 2: Roe was like, ooh, this gonna be it.
- 51:11Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying?
- 51:13Speaker 2: So it was a team effort. For real.
- 51:16Speaker 7: So when you write songs like lately, F-Rap, is it
- 51:19Speaker 7: because of you dabbling in country music or you just
- 51:21Speaker 7: be fed up with the music business?
- 51:23Speaker 2: I'm just fed up with the music business. Listen, this
- 51:25Speaker 2: wasn't for me. I was supposed to be playing football
- 51:27Speaker 2: or a coach or something like that. This wasn't supposed to.
- 51:30Speaker 2: So to be in something that I already didn't want
- 51:33Speaker 2: to do, to be in front of all this.
- 51:35Speaker 7: You ever feel ungrateful? Like you ever feel like, man, God,
- 51:39Speaker 7: I appreciate it, but. This is not what I want.
- 51:40Speaker 7: You can't tell God this is not what you want.
- 51:42Speaker 2: No, I don't tell him that this is not what
- 51:43Speaker 2: I want. I'll just be like, God, thank you, but.
- 51:45Speaker 4: F * * *.
- 51:46Speaker 2: I'm going to be completely honest, but I thank you.
- 51:51Speaker 2: That's all I can say. I say thank you and
- 51:54Speaker 2: I take a deep breath because you can't really... So
- 51:57Speaker 2: you got to know what that is? I grew up
- 52:01Speaker 2: a football player. That's all I knew. Everything that I've...
- 52:05Speaker 2: The streets to the rap, I figured it out on
- 52:07Speaker 2: the fly. It wasn't, yeah, I knew football. That's what I,
- 52:13Speaker 2: so yeah, all this new to me. I've been doing this, what,
- 52:16Speaker 2: five years now? I blew up in two, a year
- 52:20Speaker 2: and a half. So all this is fast, and I
- 52:23Speaker 2: just had to adjust as it went. But, no, it's
- 52:26Speaker 2: not for me.
- 52:26Speaker 8: Well, we'll see if you can walk on with the
- 52:28Speaker 8: Cowboys or something then, man.
- 52:29Speaker 11: We need you.
- 52:30Speaker 2: I'll go to the Texans. I ain't going to no Cowboys. No,
- 52:31Speaker 2: you know what? The Cowboys might need me. I might
- 52:35Speaker 2: go to the Cowboys.
- 52:36Speaker 11: But I think he know you can handle it, though.
- 52:37Speaker 11: I know you said.
- 52:38Speaker 2: I mean, my security guard.
- 52:41Speaker 11: He know you can handle it, though.
- 52:42Speaker 2: My security guard tell me all the time, heavy. What
- 52:44Speaker 2: do you say?
- 52:45Speaker 11: Heavy is the head that wears the crown.
- 52:46Speaker 2: He say that all the time. And when he say it,
- 52:47Speaker 2: I just drop my head because I be like, bro,
- 52:49Speaker 2: I ain't even asked to wear this crown.
- 52:51Speaker 1: Right.
- 52:51Speaker 2: But if he was able to put it on my head,
- 52:53Speaker 2: I mean, I can hold it, so.
- 52:55Speaker 25: Do you ever, when you ask God, like, why this
- 52:57Speaker 25: lane of things, like, do you ever hear him talk, like,
- 52:59Speaker 25: or showing you things of, like, why this and not football?
- 53:02Speaker 2: I don't ever ask him why because I know why.
- 53:04Speaker 2: When I initially asked him, God, please give me something
- 53:07Speaker 2: to help take care of my kids, my family, he
- 53:10Speaker 2: did it. So I have no, I can't ask him
- 53:12Speaker 2: why I know why he did it because I asked
- 53:13Speaker 2: him to help me revive my kids, you.
- 53:15Speaker 11: Know what I'm saying?
- 53:16Speaker 24: In football, you can get hurt. You see quarterbacks for
- 53:20Speaker 24: the Ravens.
- 53:21Speaker 8: It's just crazy.
- 53:22Speaker 11: We don't have no quarterback right now.
- 53:24Speaker 8: The fact that you said the quarterback for the Ravens,
- 53:26Speaker 8: you don't know who your quarterback is?
- 53:28Speaker 9: What?
- 53:28Speaker 8: Lamar Jackson? I'm just making sure.
- 53:30Speaker 11: And Huntley. I'm sorry, I'm just saying, we lost both.
- 53:32Speaker 8: Lamar wanted the best to ever do it.
- 53:34Speaker 11: Yeah, yes.
- 53:35Speaker 2: It was the fact that he was gone all that time,
- 53:37Speaker 2: and then first play back, yeah.
- 53:38Speaker 11: That's crazy.
- 53:39Speaker 24: First play back in, it was like, damn. And then
- 53:41Speaker 24: our second one, he going out too. So it was like, yeah,
- 53:44Speaker 24: but you see what I'm saying.
- 53:46Speaker 11: Is, that's probably why rap is much safer.
- 53:48Speaker 8: You know what I mean?
- 53:50Speaker 2: Kind of, sort of, you know?
- 53:51Speaker 8: Kind of, sort of.
- 53:52Speaker 4: If you move the right way, you move the right way.
- 53:53Speaker 2: Yeah, if you move the right way, for sure.
- 53:54Speaker 8: You ain't got to worry about getting shot on the
- 53:56Speaker 8: football field.
- 54:05Speaker 2: But now, like you said, it just depends on how
- 54:08Speaker 2: you move. I ain't never moved like that.
- 54:11Speaker 17: Yeah.
- 54:12Speaker 11: So today is Big X okay? Like you feeling good?
- 54:14Speaker 11: You in a good place? How are you?
- 54:17Speaker 2: Every day I get better. I'm not going to say
- 54:18Speaker 2: I'm in the best head space because somebody will call
- 54:22Speaker 2: me and do some right now and I'll go back
- 54:24Speaker 2: two steps. But every day... I try to go step forward.
- 54:27Speaker 8: But you know that stuff isn't because of you, though.
- 54:29Speaker 2: No, I know.
- 54:30Speaker 8: Like, what other people are going through is what, they
- 54:32Speaker 8: got their own issue.
- 54:32Speaker 2: For sure. But sometimes it hurt me just off the
- 54:34Speaker 2: strength of, because I want to, you know what I'm saying? Like,
- 54:37Speaker 2: but I, now it's, at first it was, oh, I can't,
- 54:40Speaker 2: so I'm going to do it, and now they just
- 54:41Speaker 2: biting the hand. But now it's like, I know I
- 54:44Speaker 2: can't help you, but I can't. And I genuinely care
- 54:46Speaker 2: for this person at one point in time. So it's like,
- 54:48Speaker 2: I want to help you, but I can't. And that
- 54:50Speaker 2: hurt more than, than doing it and them biting your hand.
- 54:52Speaker 17: Yeah.
- 54:53Speaker 25: So, The things that you lose often are redirection. Like
- 54:56Speaker 25: I saw one of your posts where you talk about
- 54:58Speaker 25: you lost everything.
- 54:59Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 54:59Speaker 25: Sometimes you lose things or you don't get the instant
- 55:01Speaker 25: redirection for a better development.
- 55:03Speaker 2: It was crazy. Everybody thought I went broke.
- 55:04Speaker 8: That's what I do.
- 55:06Speaker 12: You did.
- 55:06Speaker 8: I lost everything.
- 55:07Speaker 4: I saw that other thing too.
- 55:08Speaker 8: I was like, God damn. Nah, like when you lose yourself,
- 55:12Speaker 8: I feel like you've lost everything.
- 55:13Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 55:15Speaker 2: When you can look at yourself, when you look at
- 55:16Speaker 2: yourself in the mirror and you just, you don't see you.
- 55:19Speaker 2: That's a different feeling. I never thought I would be
- 55:22Speaker 2: able to feel it. I always, People say, oh, I
- 55:24Speaker 2: look in the mirror. I always thought people was talking,
- 55:26Speaker 2: but I don't look in the mirror and not seeing
- 55:28Speaker 2: my real self sometimes.
- 55:30Speaker 4: What was it?
- 55:32Speaker 2: Like, it's me, but it just looked like a hurt
- 55:35Speaker 2: version of me. I'm one of those people walk around, smile.
- 55:39Speaker 2: I'm the one that make everybody happy.
- 55:41Speaker 11: You're the strong friend.
- 55:42Speaker 2: Yeah, so whenever I wake up and the first thing
- 55:44Speaker 2: I do is look in the mirror and I just
- 55:45Speaker 2: look like, you ain't even want to wake up for real.
- 55:48Speaker 2: But I brush my teeth. And I fix my face
- 55:50Speaker 2: to where it looks like it's a smile because I
- 55:52Speaker 2: know my kids as well. You know me right outside. So, yeah.
- 55:55Speaker 7: There's nothing wrong with that, though, man. I think that,
- 55:57Speaker 7: you know, more men need to express that. Like, the
- 55:59Speaker 7: hardest thing for men to express is that our feelings
- 56:02Speaker 7: are hurt.
- 56:02Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 56:03Speaker 8: Are we not in a good mood? You know what
- 56:05Speaker 8: I mean?
- 56:05Speaker 2: I'm going to be completely honest with you. I think
- 56:06Speaker 2: the only reason that I started— You've been lying this
- 56:09Speaker 2: whole time?
- 56:10Speaker 20: No.
- 56:11Speaker 2: I think the only reason I even started to express
- 56:14Speaker 2: myself is because I think that's why the people— That's
- 56:17Speaker 2: where the suicide stuff come in. Absolutely. When they don't
- 56:20Speaker 2: express themselves and they just hold it in. And I
- 56:22Speaker 2: feel like that's where I was getting. I was getting
- 56:23Speaker 2: to a point where I was in a corner. Even though, yeah,
- 56:26Speaker 2: I got my people that I could talk to. It's
- 56:28Speaker 2: like they don't understand. And so it just got to
- 56:31Speaker 2: a point where I was just, I don't know, I
- 56:33Speaker 2: felt like I was locking up. And the only way
- 56:35Speaker 2: I could let it out was to cry and type
- 56:37Speaker 2: or to cry and yell. And so, yeah, but I'm
- 56:40Speaker 2: still here. I'll take that little 30-minute embarrassment if they're
- 56:44Speaker 2: going to get me on the internet because they don't
- 56:45Speaker 2: give a fuck. They're going to clown you. Oh, he
- 56:47Speaker 2: did see that. Like I said, I posted that. And
- 56:49Speaker 2: they thought I had went broke. Everybody was talking about
- 56:51Speaker 2: I went broke. Oh, he lost a girl. Oh, Tom,
- 56:55Speaker 2: I done lost myself. And y'all on here clowning me.
- 56:58Speaker 2: But hey, it's cool because I take this 30 minutes
- 57:01Speaker 2: at the end of the day. I just made it
- 57:03Speaker 2: to where I'm alive for another day. That's what helped.
- 57:05Speaker 8: You ever talk to a therapist?
- 57:07Speaker 2: I hate that. What is a therapist?
- 57:10Speaker 7: I changed my life 10 years ago. I felt I
- 57:13Speaker 7: was in that same position. Like, I didn't know who.
- 57:15Speaker 8: The I was.
- 57:17Speaker 2: I just feel like a therapist can't really help you.
- 57:19Speaker 2: You don't know me.
- 57:20Speaker 8: That's what they get to know you.
- 57:21Speaker 7: There's somebody that you can go to and sit down,
- 57:24Speaker 7: express yourself, tell all your issues, and they're not judging you.
- 57:28Speaker 8: They just listen.
- 57:29Speaker 2: I can do that with my therapist and Now it's
- 57:33Speaker 2: everywhere or I just don't, I don't trust it. I
- 57:35Speaker 2: don't trust it. That's it.
- 57:38Speaker 11: I understand.
- 57:39Speaker 7: You know, Rosama wouldn't use it against you. Write a
- 57:41Speaker 7: rap dissing you and you don't.
- 57:43Speaker 8: Even know it.
- 57:44Speaker 2: I go tell his goddamn daddy. I'm going to tell
- 57:50Speaker 2: his dad. No, I'm telling him. That's the one. That's
- 57:55Speaker 2: the one right there.
- 57:56Speaker 7: Do you hope to look in the mirror one day
- 57:58Speaker 7: and be genuinely happy with the person you see?
- 58:00Speaker 2: Oh, for sure. I feel like everything that I'm going through,
- 58:03Speaker 2: everything I done did, I got to smile at the
- 58:06Speaker 2: end of it all. You know what I'm saying? Like
- 58:07Speaker 2: when you're the person that make everybody smile, you got
- 58:09Speaker 2: to be able to make yourself smile. So that's why
- 58:12Speaker 2: I would love to be able to get back there
- 58:13Speaker 2: to where I'm making myself smile again.
- 58:15Speaker 7: I mean, think about, you've accomplished things that the younger
- 58:18Speaker 7: version of yourself Couldn't even imagine. That's enough reason to
- 58:21Speaker 7: smile right there. The fact that you got the money
- 58:24Speaker 7: and the platinum records, that's cool. But the thing that
- 58:26Speaker 7: I thought super fly is the fact that you're able
- 58:28Speaker 7: to build a compound. You got your whole family sitting
- 58:32Speaker 7: on your compound. Your mom and grandma and everybody else.
- 58:34Speaker 7: You're able to take care of your partner partners.
- 58:37Speaker 2: You done made it. I mean, I never said I
- 58:41Speaker 2: didn't make it. I made it.
- 58:43Speaker 8: But that's a reason to smile. That's the reason I'm saying.
- 58:45Speaker 8: That's a reason to smile.
- 58:46Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. You're right. You're right.
- 58:48Speaker 8: The version of you 10 years ago couldn't have been
- 58:49Speaker 8: able to do that.
- 58:50Speaker 17: Nah.
- 58:51Speaker 8: Not at all.
- 58:52Speaker 11: It's a journey. It comes with a lot, even though
- 58:54Speaker 11: you reap a lot.
- 58:55Speaker 2: I get it.

- 59:42Speaker 11: Now, when we.
- 59:43Speaker 25: Talked about it last Thursday, they kicked off an historic
- 59:46Speaker 25: five-night run in Atlanta at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Now, of course,
- 59:52Speaker 25: the night one, we know, didn't go how it was
- 59:54Speaker 25: supposed to be planned. Like, fans didn't get a chance
- 59:57Speaker 25: to see them together. The show started late, ended early. Now,
- 1:00:00Speaker 25: over the weekend, they continued to move forward and give
- 1:00:04Speaker 25: the fans what they wanted to come and see.
- 1:00:06Speaker 11: Now, a lot of people were asking what happened.
- 1:00:08Speaker 25: I saw some reporting that it was, you know, caused by, like,
- 1:00:11Speaker 25: traffic and fans showing up late. And one party wanted
- 1:00:14Speaker 25: to wait for fans. Another party wanted to just start
- 1:00:17Speaker 25: the show on time. I was told personally that it
- 1:00:20Speaker 25: was just a battle of, like, teams and people trying
- 1:00:23Speaker 25: to lead and figure out who's leading what and things
- 1:00:25Speaker 25: boiled over. And this had kind of been building up
- 1:00:27Speaker 25: for some time. Regardless of what happened, the show went.
- 1:00:30Speaker 11: On and they delivered.
- 1:00:31Speaker 6: Now.
- 1:00:33Speaker 25: Chris Brown attempted to address night one during night two.
- 1:00:37Speaker 11: Let's take a listen.
- 1:00:38Speaker 8: It's really short.
- 1:00:44Speaker 25: And the full show they did on night two, they
- 1:00:46Speaker 25: brought out Monica, Bow Wow, Jermaine Dupri, Escape, Drew Hill,
- 1:00:50Speaker 25: Da Brat, Tyrese, East Side Boys, Minus Little John. And
- 1:00:55Speaker 25: then even on night three, last night, Sunday night, people
- 1:00:58Speaker 25: were really excited for somebody to get Sexy Red, Keef Sweat,
- 1:01:01Speaker 25: Summer Walker.
- 1:01:02Speaker 11: Jeezy, Lloyd, Ne-Yo.
- 1:01:05Speaker 8: They brought out the Eastside Boys without Lil Jon?
- 1:01:07Speaker 11: One of the fans wrote me, yeah, one of the
- 1:01:08Speaker 11: fans that.
- 1:01:09Speaker 8: On the show, that magnitude?
- 1:01:10Speaker 25: Yeah, one of the fans that was there that listens
- 1:01:12Speaker 25: to The Breakfast Club wrote me, and she was really
- 1:01:15Speaker 25: excited about that part of the show, actually, but.
- 1:01:16Speaker 24: Was Lil Jon in town? He might not have been
- 1:01:18Speaker 24: in town, because now it makes sense that he wouldn't
- 1:01:20Speaker 24: be there.
- 1:01:20Speaker 8: Was that Sam Oboe that wrote you? Who wrote you?
- 1:01:22Speaker 17: Who?
- 1:01:23Speaker 12: Hey, yo.
- 1:01:24Speaker 11: What did he say?
- 1:01:25Speaker 8: Yeah, he was on tour with Pitbull.
- 1:01:27Speaker 24: All right, I was going to say, yeah, he probably
- 1:01:29Speaker 24: wasn't in town because he wouldn't be.
- 1:01:32Speaker 25: But also, too, remember fans were complaining that the cherry
- 1:01:34Speaker 25: thing wasn't happening, right? So Sway and Portia did like
- 1:01:39Speaker 25: the cherries. Sway was feeding Portia the cherries. That picked
- 1:01:42Speaker 25: up online as well, too. But Usher addressed the crowd because,
- 1:01:46Speaker 25: you know, Atlanta is his home and it means a
- 1:01:47Speaker 25: lot to him.
- 1:01:47Speaker 11: Let's take a listen to Usher.
- 1:01:49Speaker 4: Originally from Chattanooga, Tennessee, I made my way into Atlanta.
- 1:01:52Speaker 4: And Atlanta is nothing but growth, love, prosperity, beauty, entrepreneurship.
- 1:01:58Speaker 4: Everything that says we as black people, as minorities, we
- 1:02:01Speaker 4: as the majority can have and be anything we want
- 1:02:04Speaker 4: to be.
- 1:02:04Speaker 26: So for everybody that might have thought something, said something,
- 1:02:08Speaker 26: I would never not show up for my city.
- 1:02:11Speaker 4: I love you, AGM.
- 1:02:12Speaker 11: They were like, but you ain't show up last night. Well,
- 1:02:15Speaker 11: they was there.
- 1:02:16Speaker 4: They just did that.
- 1:02:17Speaker 25: You know, they was there. And then, you know, even
- 1:02:19Speaker 25: them not performing together. I saw one night fans were
- 1:02:23Speaker 25: excited because they both did come out on stage, even
- 1:02:25Speaker 25: though it wasn't fully what you described, Jess. But then
- 1:02:28Speaker 25: last night I saw that they closed out the show
- 1:02:30Speaker 25: together with New Flame.
- 1:02:31Speaker 11: Let's take a listen to that.
- 1:02:32Speaker 26: Now they're making a special announcement that being all the
- 1:02:36Speaker 26: noise in the world for Atlanta's own Usher Raiders.
- 1:02:52Speaker 6: That was them introducing each other.
- 1:02:53Speaker 25: Yeah, well, they're closing out the show, so it's like,
- 1:02:56Speaker 25: give it up for this person, give it up for
- 1:02:57Speaker 25: that person, and they do a bow. They hold hands
- 1:02:59Speaker 25: together in the air and do a bow. So we
- 1:03:01Speaker 25: move on now. The tour is, I mean, it's not stopping.
- 1:03:04Speaker 25: I still want to go see it.
- 1:03:05Speaker 11: So I'm hoping. You definitely should.
- 1:03:06Speaker 7: Do you keep saying that because you're hoping somebody will
- 1:03:08Speaker 7: offer you tickets?
- 1:03:10Speaker 9: No.
- 1:03:10Speaker 25: No, no, no.
- 1:03:11Speaker 11: I'm willing to. I'm willing to purchase my tickets. I'm
- 1:03:13Speaker 11: saying that because.
- 1:03:14Speaker 8: I hope you're not waiting for them to come to
- 1:03:15Speaker 8: Delaware because it's not happening.
- 1:03:16Speaker 11: Shut up.
- 1:03:16Speaker 6: They're definitely not coming to Delaware.
- 1:03:18Speaker 9: Shut up.
- 1:03:19Speaker 11: When I saw this fallout, though, I was a bit nervous.
- 1:03:22Speaker 25: I'm like, dang, I should have went when they came
- 1:03:23Speaker 25: back here to Jersey because I'm not going to get
- 1:03:25Speaker 25: the same show that y'all got.
- 1:03:26Speaker 11: In the beginning of it.
- 1:03:27Speaker 6: Seems like they got it back together.
- 1:03:28Speaker 11: But it seems like they're getting it back together.
- 1:03:29Speaker 6: But it brings so much revenue to a city. I mean,
- 1:03:31Speaker 6: I was in Atlanta over the weekend. When I would
- 1:03:33Speaker 6: say they had so many watch parties as far as
- 1:03:35Speaker 6: people doing... R & B nights just focused on Chris
- 1:03:38Speaker 6: Brown and Usher. The restaurants were packed out.
- 1:03:41Speaker 11: People was out in the clubs.
- 1:03:42Speaker 8: They were outside this weekend.
- 1:03:43Speaker 11: Yeah, I saw a.
- 1:03:44Speaker 25: Video of Chris Brown out in the club singing to
- 1:03:46Speaker 25: that Michael Michael, the Big Michael song.
- 1:03:48Speaker 6: Yeah, Big Michael.
- 1:03:48Speaker 2: Big Michael.
- 1:03:49Speaker 11: Yes.
- 1:03:50Speaker 9: Well, yeah.
- 1:03:51Speaker 11: It continues.
- 1:03:52Speaker 25: Now, shifting gears a bit, back here in New York,
- 1:03:54Speaker 25: Dave Chappelle was at Madison Square Garden over the weekend.
- 1:03:57Speaker 25: He had two nights there, a Friday and a Saturday night.
- 1:04:00Speaker 2: Damn, I should have went, man.
- 1:04:01Speaker 8: I was enjoying my couch too much, though.
- 1:04:02Speaker 25: I was so upset that I didn't remember that that
- 1:04:05Speaker 25: was kicking off this weekend. I only remembered your dates
- 1:04:07Speaker 25: just for this weekend coming up.
- 1:04:08Speaker 24: Well, that's great, because I will be headlining the festival.
- 1:04:12Speaker 11: Let's go. At the venue at the Hard Rock Hotel,
- 1:04:14Speaker 11: so thank you.
- 1:04:15Speaker 6: You're going to be opening up for me again.
- 1:04:17Speaker 17: Oh, my God.
- 1:04:18Speaker 25: Yeah, so Dave Chappelle was there at Madison Square Garden
- 1:04:21Speaker 25: and sold out shows over the weekend. But there's a
- 1:04:22Speaker 25: joke that he told and someone was recording video. It
- 1:04:25Speaker 25: leaked and now people are pissed off. The joke was
- 1:04:27Speaker 25: about Charlie Kirk. Let's take a listen to Dave Chappelle,
- 1:04:30Speaker 25: a Saturday night show about Charlie Kirk.
- 1:04:33Speaker 2: I feel f * * * ed.
- 1:04:34Speaker 8: Up saying this.
- 1:04:35Speaker 27: It's scary being a public speaker. And I mean, look,
- 1:04:39Speaker 27: ever since that guy, Charlie Kirk, got murdered, and I
- 1:04:45Speaker 27: shouldn't say this publicly, but I feel better.
- 1:04:51Speaker 19: I know I shouldn't say that, but it's just a feeling.
- 1:04:55Speaker 4: I didn't ask to feel this way.
- 1:04:58Speaker 2: I just be driving around like, why am I in
- 1:05:00Speaker 2: such a good mood?
- 1:05:05Speaker 7: Yeah, I don't find the human people getting clapped. OK,
- 1:05:08Speaker 7: any of us can be shot. And I don't want
- 1:05:10Speaker 7: anybody getting shot because somebody disagrees with their opinion. So, yeah,
- 1:05:12Speaker 7: you have the freedom to, you know, joke and talk
- 1:05:15Speaker 7: about whatever you want to joke and talk about. But personally,
- 1:05:17Speaker 7: I don't want to deal with the energy of that. Like,
- 1:05:19Speaker 7: I don't wish stuff like that on my worst enemy.
- 1:05:21Speaker 11: Yeah, and there's another video that's circulating that.
- 1:05:24Speaker 6: How'd they get videos in there?
- 1:05:25Speaker 8: Because Dave Chappelle is very serious about phones and all that.
- 1:05:28Speaker 25: And I had a friend that went Saturday. One of
- 1:05:31Speaker 25: our producers had a friend that went Saturday as well.
- 1:05:33Speaker 25: And they said that they did ask you to put
- 1:05:34Speaker 25: your phones away. I don't know how it happened.
- 1:05:36Speaker 11: Every Chappelle show, they have you do that.
- 1:05:39Speaker 25: I saw him here in New York before and they
- 1:05:40Speaker 25: were super strict about their phone signs.
- 1:05:41Speaker 8: Is there more to the joke? Because I didn't hear
- 1:05:43Speaker 8: the joke. That's all we get. Like, where was the joke?
- 1:05:46Speaker 6: That's all we get.
- 1:05:46Speaker 11: That's all we got in that video clip. And they
- 1:05:48Speaker 11: cut it off.
- 1:05:49Speaker 25: Yeah, that's all we have in that video clip. That's
- 1:05:51Speaker 25: why I was trying to ask fans, friends, like, yo,
- 1:05:53Speaker 25: what was the joke? Like, what was the context? My friends, well,
- 1:05:56Speaker 25: never mind, I won't say it.
- 1:05:57Speaker 8: It just sounded like he made an observation.
- 1:05:59Speaker 12: Yeah.
- 1:05:59Speaker 7: An observation, at least from what that clip just played.
- 1:06:03Speaker 7: It was just like he felt better after Charlie Kirk
- 1:06:05Speaker 7: got shot and killed.
- 1:06:06Speaker 11: There's another video circulating too.
- 1:06:08Speaker 9: What?
- 1:06:09Speaker 8: Personally, I would never feel like that.
- 1:06:12Speaker 25: There's another video circulating too and I thought that this
- 1:06:14Speaker 25: was something that he had already previously said because I
- 1:06:17Speaker 25: know that Dave Chappelle has mentioned Charlie Kirk in his
- 1:06:19Speaker 25: Netflix special that came out a few months after Charlie
- 1:06:21Speaker 25: Kirk passed away. But this video is circulating and I
- 1:06:24Speaker 25: believe that this would have been from Friday night.
- 1:06:26Speaker 11: Let's take a listen.
- 1:06:27Speaker 4: The looking.
- 1:06:36Speaker 11: Yeah, and Erica Kirk, who is the widow of Charlie Kirk,
- 1:06:38Speaker 11: got on X.
- 1:06:39Speaker 8: He said Charlie Kirk would be looking up at us
- 1:06:40Speaker 8: right now.
- 1:06:41Speaker 2: That's what he said?
- 1:06:41Speaker 13: Yes.
- 1:06:42Speaker 11: Laughing so hard that he can't breathe.
- 1:06:43Speaker 2: That was Dave Chappelle?
- 1:06:45Speaker 11: Yeah, that was Dave Chappelle.
- 1:06:46Speaker 8: I feel like I heard that.
- 1:06:47Speaker 11: I feel like I've heard it, too. That was at
- 1:06:49Speaker 11: the Rose.
- 1:06:49Speaker 6: They said that about George Floyd. They said that about
- 1:06:51Speaker 6: George Floyd. They said George Floyd was looking up and
- 1:06:53Speaker 6: couldn't hear him.
- 1:06:54Speaker 25: So Erica Kirk, the widow of Charlie Kirk, got on
- 1:06:57Speaker 25: X and she says to see left the leftist podcasters,
- 1:07:00Speaker 25: committees and commentators laugh about political assassination as though it
- 1:07:04Speaker 25: is entertainment. And the destruction of a human life is
- 1:07:06Speaker 25: a punchline is beyond disgusting. She says a culture that
- 1:07:10Speaker 25: laughs at assassinations is one of profound moral decay. It
- 1:07:14Speaker 25: threatens the very foundation of our country and the principles
- 1:07:16Speaker 25: that hold our democracy together. You do not have to
- 1:07:18Speaker 25: agree with someone's politics to recognize the value of their life.
- 1:07:21Speaker 25: This should not be so hard. There's more, but I
- 1:07:23Speaker 25: think that that's the gist of the statement. So, yeah,
- 1:07:26Speaker 25: people are upset about it.
- 1:07:27Speaker 7: The one thing I will say, I really wish I
- 1:07:29Speaker 7: could have gone to that show because I'm so glad
- 1:07:31Speaker 7: that Dave didn't have Donnell Rollins on it.
- 1:07:33Speaker 8: Drop on the clues, bomb.
- 1:07:34Speaker 4: Why?
- 1:07:34Speaker 11: Why are you doing that?
- 1:07:35Speaker 8: Not having Donnell Rollins on the show. You wasn't on
- 1:07:37Speaker 8: it for real?
- 1:07:38Speaker 2: Yeah, I asked.
- 1:07:39Speaker 8: I even asked Donnell.
- 1:07:39Speaker 9: Damn.
- 1:07:40Speaker 4: But why are you so happy?
- 1:07:41Speaker 11: That's messed up, Charlton.
- 1:07:42Speaker 7: I actually reached out to Donnell yesterday to just say, hey, man.
- 1:07:45Speaker 7: I'm very happy that Dave kept you off the show
- 1:07:47Speaker 7: on Friday.
- 1:07:48Speaker 6: Why was he not on the show?
- 1:07:49Speaker 25: Are you happy because he escaped some of the criticism
- 1:07:51Speaker 25: or just because you mean?
- 1:07:52Speaker 7: No, I'm just glad that Dave finally came to his
- 1:07:55Speaker 7: senses and kept Donnell off the show.
- 1:07:56Speaker 11: Donnell is actually really, really funny.
- 1:07:58Speaker 8: That's the problem. That's the problem. You want to be
- 1:08:02Speaker 8: out there making people laugh, huh, Donnell?
- 1:08:05Speaker 7: You want to be out there making people laugh, huh, Donnell?
- 1:08:07Speaker 7: I see them little videos.
- 1:08:08Speaker 4: People be making.
- 1:08:09Speaker 8: Talk about Donnell Rollins is the funniest on them. He's
- 1:08:11Speaker 8: on these Dave Chappelle tours.
- 1:08:13Speaker 7: Yeah, Dave kept your ass off in this one, huh?
- 1:08:15Speaker 7: Ain't gonna be too many more of them videos, huh, Donnell?
- 1:08:18Speaker 8: I'm sure Donnell had another show. That is the latest one, man.
- 1:08:21Speaker 6: Who's it brought to you by?
- 1:08:22Speaker 8: I'm gonna call Donnell this morning and piss him off.
- 1:08:24Speaker 11: Don't do that.
- 1:08:25Speaker 4: You love rubbing stuff like.
- 1:08:26Speaker 11: That in people's face.
- 1:08:27Speaker 8: This guy's crazy. Who's that brought to you by?
- 1:08:30Speaker 25: It's brought to you by Top Dog Law. You guys

- 1:08:46Speaker 2: Absolutely.
- 1:08:46Speaker 6: We're going to.
- 1:08:47Speaker 8: Bring Donnell up on.
- 1:08:47Speaker 6: So many videos he put me in and this man in.
- 1:08:49Speaker 8: Absolutely. You want to be up there making people laugh, okay?
- 1:08:52Speaker 2: Okay.
- 1:08:52Speaker 3: All right, Dave.
- 1:08:53Speaker 8: Got something for your ass, huh?
- 1:08:55Speaker 4: You've been giving your dog for too long.
- 1:08:57Speaker 11: No, not yet.
- 1:08:59Speaker 4: Now you're laughing at home.
- 1:09:00Speaker 8: Boy, after the hour, I need Carpreese Williams. That's how
- 1:09:03Speaker 8: you pronounce her name?
- 1:09:04Speaker 6: Carpreese? What is it, Taylor?
- 1:09:06Speaker 8: Taylor went to school with her.
- 1:09:08Speaker 2: Wow.
- 1:09:08Speaker 8: She used to bully Taylor. Carpreese. She used to bully you, Taylor?
- 1:09:12Speaker 8: It's Caprice. Caprice Williams. She needs to come to the
- 1:09:15Speaker 8: front of the congregation. We'd like to have a word
- 1:09:16Speaker 8: with her.
- 1:09:16Speaker 2: All right.
- 1:09:16Speaker 6: We'll get you that next.
- 1:09:17Speaker 8: It's the Breakfast Club.
- 1:09:18Speaker 2: Good morning.
- 1:09:18Speaker 17: I just wanted to know how you came up with
- 1:09:20Speaker 17: the donkey of the day.
- 1:09:22Speaker 6: Because you're mean.
- 1:09:24Speaker 4: I am not. What did I do?
- 1:09:26Speaker 2: I made donkey of the day.
- 1:09:27Speaker 8: There's a bunch of donkeys out here in the streets.
- 1:09:30Speaker 7: If we live a life where we bite our tongue
- 1:09:31Speaker 7: based off who we may offend, we never would say anything.
- 1:09:33Speaker 8: We don't get the damn donkey of the day.
- 1:09:36Speaker 6: Caprice Williams.
- 1:09:39Speaker 4: Oh, man, give it to him.
- 1:09:41Speaker 8: Give it to him.
- 1:09:42Speaker 2: On The Breakfast Club.
- 1:09:43Speaker 3: Man, shut up.
- 1:09:44Speaker 2: Get away from me right now.
- 1:09:46Speaker 15: Yo, it is wild.
- 1:09:48Speaker 2: Oh, man, Charlamagne, you giving Donkey the day to who now?
- 1:09:53Speaker 8: Let me tell you something about Taylor Hayes.
- 1:09:54Speaker 2: She is crazy. She is. Okay.
- 1:09:56Speaker 8: Just a crazy individual. Don't get a day for Monday,
- 1:09:59Speaker 8: November 9th.
- 1:10:00Speaker 7: Goes to 36-year-old Caprice Williams of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Not just Caprice,
- 1:10:04Speaker 7: but everybody responsible for making sure children in foster care
- 1:10:08Speaker 7: are supposed to be safe.
- 1:10:11Speaker 2: Okay.
- 1:10:12Speaker 7: To all of y'all who failed 10-year-old Malaysia outfit, all
- 1:10:15Speaker 7: of y'all getting this big keyhole.
- 1:10:16Speaker 9: Okay.
- 1:10:17Speaker 7: RIP to that young lady. As a parent of young kids, man,
- 1:10:20Speaker 7: there are just some things I don't even want to see.
- 1:10:23Speaker 7: There's some things I don't even want to hear. And
- 1:10:25Speaker 7: a 10-year-old girl being killed by someone in the same
- 1:10:27Speaker 7: system that is supposed to keep them safe just disturbs
- 1:10:30Speaker 7: my spirit on a different level, okay? Would you like
- 1:10:32Speaker 7: to hear more of this disgusting news? Let's go to
- 1:10:34Speaker 7: NBC Philadelphia for.
- 1:10:35Speaker 8: The report, please.
- 1:10:36Speaker 28: Outside Malaysia Alford's foster home on North Simpson Street, the
- 1:10:39Speaker 28: memorial grows while information about what allegedly happened inside the
- 1:10:43Speaker 28: house is coming out of the darkness. Detectives interviewed two
- 1:10:47Speaker 28: juvenile witnesses who are family members of Caprice Williams. According
- 1:10:51Speaker 28: to the arrest report, one said Williams used a phone
- 1:10:53Speaker 28: cord to hit Malaysia and threw her down the stairs.
- 1:10:57Speaker 28: And both witnesses say on Saturday, October 24th, they saw
- 1:11:01Speaker 28: Malaysia lying in a bed and each of the three
- 1:11:04Speaker 28: times they saw her, she never changed position with her
- 1:11:07Speaker 28: arm behind her back.
- 1:11:08Speaker 2: The report goes.
- 1:11:09Speaker 28: On to say the second witness said Williams would make
- 1:11:12Speaker 28: Malaysia walk up and down the stairs wearing a heavy
- 1:11:16Speaker 28: vest and that Williams had once not allowed the decedent
- 1:11:19Speaker 28: to eat for a week. The documents show Williams used
- 1:11:23Speaker 28: the girl's phone to send text messages to herself. One said, mommy,
- 1:11:28Speaker 28: I know you are waiting for me to come home,
- 1:11:30Speaker 28: but my family said they don't want me to be
- 1:11:32Speaker 28: adopted and I just wish we can all be together.
- 1:11:36Speaker 28: Earlier this week, investigators say they obtained video showing a
- 1:11:39Speaker 28: man dragging a large bag down the sidewalk. and putting
- 1:11:43Speaker 28: it into a parked vehicle which is driven away. Investigators
- 1:11:46Speaker 28: used that video to track down the man who they
- 1:11:49Speaker 28: say told them in an interview, you want me to
- 1:11:52Speaker 28: tell you and then.
- 1:11:53Speaker 2: My life is ruined.
- 1:11:54Speaker 28: You have to give me some time because I'm not
- 1:11:57Speaker 28: doing it tonight. That man later drove with investigators to
- 1:12:01Speaker 28: where the body was found. at this apartment complex in Lindenwald,
- 1:12:05Speaker 28: New Jersey. Nadeem Bazar is an attorney with Klein Inspector.
- 1:12:08Speaker 28: He is representing Malaysia's estate and also represented a family
- 1:12:12Speaker 28: over a 2021 incident where Williams is accused of abusing
- 1:12:16Speaker 28: a four-year-old foster child. According to the complaint, the Child
- 1:12:20Speaker 28: Protective Services report described the child as malnourished with abrasions
- 1:12:25Speaker 28: to her face.
- 1:12:26Speaker 20: I think that what we're going to do is we're
- 1:12:28Speaker 20: going to dig down and we're going to find out
- 1:12:30Speaker 20: what happened and how this situation of background checks got
- 1:12:34Speaker 20: derailed or were ignored.
- 1:12:37Speaker 8: I want everybody listening to the sound of my voice
- 1:12:39Speaker 8: to understand something.
- 1:12:40Speaker 7: When the government removes a child from their home and
- 1:12:43Speaker 7: places that child in somebody else's care, that's an enormous responsibility, okay?
- 1:12:47Speaker 7: You are telling that child and their family that this
- 1:12:50Speaker 7: is a safer environment, okay?
- 1:12:52Speaker 8: That it's just a safer environment, all right?
- 1:12:55Speaker 7: So with that said, somebody needs to explain to me
- 1:12:57Speaker 7: how a 10-year-old Malaysia outfit ended up dead in the
- 1:13:00Speaker 7: trunk of a car in New Jersey. When you hear
- 1:13:03Speaker 7: all of the abuse... that she allegedly had to go through.
- 1:13:06Speaker 7: None of that was discipline. That was just straight up torture, okay?
- 1:13:10Speaker 7: When I was young, my daddy beat me with an
- 1:13:12Speaker 7: extension cord and made me take a bath afterwards so
- 1:13:14Speaker 7: the warm water would like hit the whelps.
- 1:13:16Speaker 8: That's part of the reason I don't beat my kids now.
- 1:13:18Speaker 8: Don't believe in it.
- 1:13:19Speaker 7: And I need grown people to stop confusing cruelty with discipline, okay?
- 1:13:23Speaker 7: Discipline is supposed to teach a child something. Abuse teaches
- 1:13:26Speaker 7: a child to fear the very people that they're supposed
- 1:13:31Speaker 7: to trust, okay?
- 1:13:31Speaker 8: Not only did Malaysia die from blunt force trauma.
- 1:13:34Speaker 7: You just heard in the news report, this woman, Caprice,
- 1:13:38Speaker 7: according to investigators, used Malaysia's phone to send messages, making
- 1:13:42Speaker 7: it appear that the child had gone to be with
- 1:13:44Speaker 7: her biological family. Think about the level of deception. involved
- 1:13:49Speaker 7: in that a little girl is dead and instead of
- 1:13:50Speaker 7: calling for help authorities alleged the person responsible for protecting
- 1:13:54Speaker 7: her was trying to create a story to explain why
- 1:13:56Speaker 7: she was missing and what makes the story even worse
- 1:13:59Speaker 7: capri williams was reportedly an elementary school teacher this is
- 1:14:03Speaker 7: why everyone shouldn't be a teacher a teacher is a
- 1:14:06Speaker 7: very sacred position it's an act of public service that
- 1:14:09Speaker 7: deserves way more pay and way more respect and you
- 1:14:11Speaker 7: have to be fit to serve and caprice clearly was
- 1:14:14Speaker 7: not okay but we're not gonna let the conversation stop
- 1:14:16Speaker 7: with caprice williams no no no no It's a whole village.
- 1:14:20Speaker 8: That fell in Malaysia.
- 1:14:21Speaker 7: According to NBC 10 Philadelphia, Williams previously had been identified
- 1:14:26Speaker 7: in a civil lawsuit involving another foster child who suffered
- 1:14:30Speaker 7: severe injuries while in her case, that child was hospitalized
- 1:14:34Speaker 7: in 2021. And the lawsuit described injuries so serious that
- 1:14:38Speaker 7: a doctor reportedly characterized the case as a near fatality.
- 1:14:42Speaker 7: The foster home was reportedly closed following that incident. So
- 1:14:47Speaker 7: that brings me to the question I want everybody in
- 1:14:49Speaker 7: Philadelphia's child welfare system to answer. How in the hell
- 1:14:53Speaker 7: did another child end up in that home? Who approved it?
- 1:14:56Speaker 7: Who reviewed our history? Who conducted the background checks? Who
- 1:14:58Speaker 7: was responsible for monitoring that placement? And did anybody know
- 1:15:01Speaker 7: about the previous allegations? If they didn't, why not? Okay,
- 1:15:05Speaker 7: I'm not going to sit here and accuse individual caseworkers
- 1:15:08Speaker 7: of wrongdoing without evidence, but somebody has to explain how
- 1:15:11Speaker 7: a foster home reportedly closed following allegations of a near-fatal
- 1:15:16Speaker 7: child abuse situation, but they were apparently allowed to take
- 1:15:19Speaker 7: in another child. Because if those reports are accurate, this
- 1:15:22Speaker 7: isn't just a conversation about one woman's alleged cruelty. This
- 1:15:25Speaker 7: is a conversation about whether the safeguards designed to protect
- 1:15:28Speaker 7: vulnerable children actually work. And please don't give we the
- 1:15:32Speaker 7: public some generic statement about reviewing procedures and scrimping and protocols. No,
- 1:15:36Speaker 7: we need answers. OK, we need to know who authorized
- 1:15:38Speaker 7: the placement. We need to know whether the previous allegations
- 1:15:40Speaker 7: were documented and accessible. We need to know whether proper
- 1:15:43Speaker 7: inspections and follow ups occurred and whether there were warning
- 1:15:46Speaker 7: signs that somebody missed or are ignored.
- 1:15:49Speaker 8: OK, if mistakes were made.
- 1:15:51Speaker 7: Identify them if people were negligent hold them accountable if
- 1:15:54Speaker 7: the system has holes in it fix them before another
- 1:15:57Speaker 7: child falls through those same holes okay man this story
- 1:16:00Speaker 7: just makes you want to physically f somebody up okay
- 1:16:04Speaker 7: malaysia was 10 years old she should have been worrying
- 1:16:08Speaker 7: about homework what she wanted for christmas not whether the
- 1:16:11Speaker 7: adult responsible for her care was gonna hurt her and
- 1:16:14Speaker 7: that's what breaks my heart man children don't get to
- 1:16:16Speaker 7: choose the systems they're born into They don't get to
- 1:16:19Speaker 7: choose the circumstances that put them in foster care, and
- 1:16:22Speaker 7: they damn sure don't get to choose the adults the
- 1:16:24Speaker 7: government places them with. That's why the responsibility falls on us. So, yes,
- 1:16:29Speaker 7: Capri Williams deserves to face the full weight of the
- 1:16:31Speaker 7: justice system if these allegations are proven true. But she
- 1:16:34Speaker 7: also needs her ass beat in prison. OK, you tough
- 1:16:37Speaker 7: with a 10 year old. Let me see if you
- 1:16:38Speaker 7: tough with somebody doing 10 to 20. OK, but accountability
- 1:16:41Speaker 7: cannot just end with, you know, her getting convicted of murder.
- 1:16:44Speaker 7: That child was placed in the care of the state.
- 1:16:47Speaker 7: Now that child is dead in a home with a
- 1:16:49Speaker 7: documented history of serious abuse allegations. The public deserves to
- 1:16:53Speaker 7: know whether that death could have been prevented. And if
- 1:16:55Speaker 7: it could have been, then the question isn't just who
- 1:16:57Speaker 7: killed Malaysia Alford. The question is who had a responsibility
- 1:17:02Speaker 7: to protect her. and had the information to recognize the
- 1:17:05Speaker 7: danger and failed to act. Rest in peace, Malaysia Alford,
- 1:17:09Speaker 7: and please give Capri Williams and every person whose negligence
- 1:17:12Speaker 7: may have contributed to this tragedy the biggest hee-haw.
- 1:17:19Speaker 2: Horrible world we live in.
- 1:17:20Speaker 8: So damn sad. Taylor said she went to school with
- 1:17:23Speaker 8: the girl. She said the girl was a bully.
- 1:17:25Speaker 2: Stank.
- 1:17:25Speaker 8: Stank. They used to call her a whale.
- 1:17:28Speaker 11: Or something like that.
- 1:17:29Speaker 8: Damn, yo. Her brother used to call her a whale.
- 1:17:32Speaker 8: Her brother used to call her a whale, yeah. Sounds
- 1:17:35Speaker 8: like hurt people hurt people to me.
- 1:17:36Speaker 11: Yeah, it sounds like, well, hurt people kill people.
- 1:17:38Speaker 24: That's crazy because the fact that they, like you said,
- 1:17:41Speaker 24: all of that was true.
- 1:17:42Speaker 11: All the people that turned a blind eye, didn't say anything,
- 1:17:46Speaker 11: they're just as worse as she was.
- 1:17:47Speaker 3: That's right.
- 1:17:48Speaker 8: Didn't do their job. Poor family, poor young girl.
- 1:17:51Speaker 2: All right.
- 1:17:51Speaker 8: Well, thank you for that donkey today.
- 1:17:53Speaker 2: Rest in peace, Malaysia. Yes.
- 1:17:54Speaker 6: When we come back, we have Senator Raphael Warnock joining us.
- 1:17:57Speaker 6: We're going to talk to him next.
- 1:17:58Speaker 2: Don't move.
- 1:17:58Speaker 8: It's the Breakfast Club.
- 1:17:59Speaker 2: Good morning. Morning, everybody.
- 1:18:00Speaker 6: It's DJ Envy, Just Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
- 1:18:04Speaker 8: We are The Breakfast Club.
- 1:18:05Speaker 6: We got a special guest in the building. We have
- 1:18:07Speaker 6: Senator Raphael Warnock, U.S. Senator from Georgia and senior pastor
- 1:18:11Speaker 6: of Atlanta's Ebenezer Baptist Church. Good morning.
- 1:18:15Speaker 2: Great to be here with you.
- 1:18:16Speaker 7: Hey, man, when you look at the results, what do
- 1:18:19Speaker 7: you believe the American people were voting for? Were they
- 1:18:20Speaker 7: voting for Democrats? Were they voting against Trump? Or were
- 1:18:23Speaker 7: they just voting for a fundamentally different kind of politics?
- 1:18:26Speaker 14: I have to tell you, and it's great to be here,
- 1:18:30Speaker 14: that as I've been walking around, moving around Georgia and
- 1:18:32Speaker 14: across the country, people, it just felt like they're living
- 1:18:36Speaker 14: under a cloud. Like, this is not some normal time.
- 1:18:40Speaker 14: There's a heaviness, even in happy moments. It's always there.
- 1:18:43Speaker 14: You feel it. And I literally will be out in public,
- 1:18:48Speaker 14: and these last two years I've been in the Senate
- 1:18:50Speaker 14: now six years, and folks will literally grab me, sometimes physically,
- 1:18:54Speaker 14: and say, fight for us, stand up for us. And
- 1:18:57Speaker 14: I think that's what the American people are saying, that
- 1:19:00Speaker 14: in this moment in which they are being crushed by
- 1:19:03Speaker 14: these costs, driven by these tariffs, which is just a
- 1:19:06Speaker 14: tax tax, on everything, which disproportionately hurts people who are
- 1:19:11Speaker 14: working class, poor everyday people. Gas prices spiked by this
- 1:19:17Speaker 14: lawless war of choice. All of this corruption, healthcare that
- 1:19:22Speaker 14: they can't afford. People are just feeling crushed. I mean,
- 1:19:25Speaker 14: how else do you explain the ways in which we
- 1:19:28Speaker 14: had really a blue tsunami, even in districts that they gerrymandered?
- 1:19:33Speaker 14: I think folks are waking up in those red districts
- 1:19:36Speaker 14: And they're saying, well, Donald Trump certainly isn't fighting for us.
- 1:19:39Speaker 14: And he showed that the day after the election, showing
- 1:19:42Speaker 14: off his ballroom.
- 1:19:43Speaker 17: Yeah.
- 1:19:43Speaker 7: I mean, it definitely was a complete rebuke of the
- 1:19:45Speaker 7: last 10 years of MAGA, but I don't want Democrats
- 1:19:49Speaker 7: to get comfortable and think that they actually went out
- 1:19:51Speaker 7: there and voted because they trust the Democratic Party.
- 1:19:54Speaker 14: Oh, I agree with that. I agree with that. I
- 1:19:57Speaker 14: think both political parties don't have a good brand right now.
- 1:20:03Speaker 14: And I think There's a way in which people have
- 1:20:06Speaker 14: been trying for a long time almost to get above politics.
- 1:20:09Speaker 14: The recognition that what we're dealing with in a sense
- 1:20:14Speaker 14: is deeper than the puny vocabulary of politics. And it
- 1:20:19Speaker 14: gets to the character of the nation, what kind of
- 1:20:21Speaker 14: nation we intend to be. Do people have a path
- 1:20:24Speaker 14: for their children to prosper? And they're frustrated because they've
- 1:20:27Speaker 14: seen over the last 50 years, right, wages go down
- 1:20:32Speaker 14: for working class people. We have wealth inequality right now
- 1:20:36Speaker 14: that's worse than it was during the Gilded Age.
- 1:20:39Speaker 2: Damn.
- 1:20:39Speaker 14: The age that gave birth to reform, the eight-hour work week, unions,
- 1:20:45Speaker 14: all of that. Wealth inequality is worse now than it
- 1:20:49Speaker 14: was then. So people, I think, have a sense that
- 1:20:52Speaker 14: the system is rigged. And Donald Trump is a crass
- 1:20:57Speaker 14: and obvious expression of that. But this corruption... this chokehold
- 1:21:02Speaker 14: that corporate interests have had on our politics, limiting what
- 1:21:04Speaker 14: we can even do or, or imagine is real. And
- 1:21:09Speaker 14: I think if we think that people want us simply
- 1:21:12Speaker 14: to return to normalcy prior to Trump, then you've misdiagnosed
- 1:21:16Speaker 14: where we are. This is a time to reimagine what's
- 1:21:19Speaker 14: possible in the United States of America.
- 1:21:21Speaker 7: How do you distinguish a mandate for change from a
- 1:21:24Speaker 7: temporary rejection of the party in power? I, Well, clearly
- 1:21:29Speaker 7: it's a rejection.
- 1:21:29Speaker 14: But it could be temporary. Well, people feel, people even
- 1:21:34Speaker 14: in the MAGA coalition feel betrayed. But I do think
- 1:21:38Speaker 14: both parties are very much on trial right now, and
- 1:21:41Speaker 14: people want to know who will deliver for everyday people,
- 1:21:44Speaker 14: which is the work that I try to do every
- 1:21:46Speaker 14: single day.
- 1:21:46Speaker 7: But we still have to be realistic, too, though, because
- 1:21:48Speaker 7: there's a lot of things, like, you know, we know
- 1:21:49Speaker 7: the big, beautiful bill kicks in in January, and people
- 1:21:52Speaker 7: might say, well... Once the health care and stuff starts
- 1:21:55Speaker 7: getting taken away, they might start blaming that on Democrats.
- 1:21:57Speaker 8: They shouldn't.
- 1:21:58Speaker 14: I'm glad you mentioned that because it shows you how
- 1:22:01Speaker 14: cynical these people are. As you point out, they passed
- 1:22:04Speaker 14: the one big ugly bill in 2025, which cut a
- 1:22:08Speaker 14: trillion dollars out of Medicaid. These huge cuts and snap,
- 1:22:12Speaker 14: literally knocking, taking food out of the mouths of children
- 1:22:16Speaker 14: and medicine away from seniors. But what's worse is that
- 1:22:21Speaker 14: some of the most brutal parts of that bill in
- 1:22:24Speaker 14: terms of health care are slated to hit after the election.
- 1:22:28Speaker 14: That's how cynical they are. And so, yeah, we've got
- 1:22:32Speaker 14: to fix that. Like, we have to approach that as
- 1:22:35Speaker 14: a 911 emergency. And I think after the people stood
- 1:22:39Speaker 14: up on Tuesday night, we may be able to get
- 1:22:41Speaker 14: enough Republican takers to restore the ACA premium tax credits
- 1:22:48Speaker 14: so people don't see their premiums go way up.
- 1:22:50Speaker 9: Mm-hmm.
- 1:22:50Speaker 2: While addressing some of these other issues as well.
- 1:22:53Speaker 25: I saw you tell CNN when they asked you about
- 1:22:55Speaker 25: corruption or cost, you said we can walk and chew
- 1:22:59Speaker 25: gum at the same time.
- 1:23:01Speaker 2: Absolutely.
- 1:23:02Speaker 14: Not only can we, we have to because the corruption
- 1:23:05Speaker 14: is connected to cost. You know, where where Trump is concerned,
- 1:23:08Speaker 14: you're witnessing a president who's literally his family's two billion
- 1:23:12Speaker 14: dollars richer than they were two years ago. you have
- 1:23:16Speaker 14: these tariffs, which are crushing people, right? And every now
- 1:23:19Speaker 14: and then, Trump shakes down a foreign government for his
- 1:23:22Speaker 14: own interests. So the corruption and the costs are connected.
- 1:23:27Speaker 14: And Trump is a particular vile expression of that. But,
- 1:23:32Speaker 14: you know, if I could quickly kind of walk you
- 1:23:34Speaker 14: through an example. You don't even got to do it quickly.
- 1:23:35Speaker 14: You know, I'm proud of the fact that when I
- 1:23:38Speaker 14: went to the Senate, one of the things we did
- 1:23:41Speaker 14: was we passed a bill that finally gave Medicare... the
- 1:23:46Speaker 14: ability to negotiate with Big Pharma the price of prescription drugs.
- 1:23:51Speaker 14: So think about that first of all. We had to
- 1:23:53Speaker 14: pass a law just so Medicare could negotiate. That tells
- 1:23:57Speaker 14: you the influence of corporate interests in our politics. In
- 1:24:01Speaker 14: what capitalistic world does the seller get to tell you
- 1:24:04Speaker 14: the price and you don't even get to push back?
- 1:24:06Speaker 14: So they had to pass a law. I'm proud that
- 1:24:08Speaker 14: we did it. It is literally saving lives right now.
- 1:24:12Speaker 2: But guess what? It was only on 10 drugs.
- 1:24:14Speaker 14: And then the law didn't become law until four years
- 1:24:17Speaker 14: after we passed it. So I'm saying to you that
- 1:24:19Speaker 14: too often we have the best politicians, best politics, that
- 1:24:24Speaker 14: money can buy. Which is why one of the things
- 1:24:26Speaker 14: we've got to do is deal with dark money in
- 1:24:28Speaker 14: our politics, partisan gerrymandering. We've got to get the people
- 1:24:31Speaker 14: their voice back in their own democracy so we can
- 1:24:34Speaker 14: deliver the things that they require.
- 1:24:37Speaker 7: What you're speaking to is why there's so many people
- 1:24:39Speaker 7: calling for Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries to step aside.
- 1:24:42Speaker 8: Or to fundamentally change how they lead. Do you believe.
- 1:24:46Speaker 7: Democratic leadership understands what voters were demanding in this election?
- 1:24:51Speaker 14: I spent a lot of time on the ground listening.
- 1:24:53Speaker 14: I campaigned in about 10 states trying to help us
- 1:24:56Speaker 14: with the Senate majority. I've been in the majority and
- 1:24:59Speaker 14: in the minority. The majority is a lot better. And
- 1:25:02Speaker 14: people are deeply frustrated. And I think they're hungry. I
- 1:25:06Speaker 14: think also I saw hope.
- 1:25:08Speaker 7: But does Democratic leadership understand that? Do Chuck Schumer and
- 1:25:11Speaker 7: Hakeem Jeffries truly understand that?
- 1:25:13Speaker 14: Well, I think that's a conversation we need to have
- 1:25:15Speaker 14: and we will continue to have inside the caucus. And
- 1:25:18Speaker 14: in terms of leadership, you know, I'm open to hearing
- 1:25:21Speaker 14: whoever in the caucus thinks that they should lead in
- 1:25:23Speaker 14: this moment.
- 1:25:24Speaker 2: I want to hear that vision.
- 1:25:26Speaker 14: But it's got to center the concerns of ordinary people.
- 1:25:29Speaker 14: It can't be about Beltway politics. It's about how we
- 1:25:33Speaker 14: actually deliver to the people.
- 1:25:35Speaker 7: So does the party need new leadership or does it
- 1:25:37Speaker 7: need a new agenda under the same leadership?
- 1:25:40Speaker 2: I think the whole country needs a new agenda.
- 1:25:44Speaker 14: I mean, I think we've got to take account and
- 1:25:47Speaker 14: take stock of how we ended up here in the
- 1:25:49Speaker 14: first place.
- 1:25:51Speaker 2: Like Trump is a problem. He's the most.
- 1:25:54Speaker 14: Corrupt president we've had in American history.
- 1:25:58Speaker 2: He's a vile human being.
- 1:26:00Speaker 8: Absolutely.
- 1:26:00Speaker 14: With no moral compass, right? But he's also symptomatic of
- 1:26:05Speaker 14: a deep spiritual sickness. I would contend that no nation
- 1:26:11Speaker 14: that is healthy could have elected Donald Trump twice. The
- 1:26:16Speaker 14: Trump era is indicative of the brokenness and the deep
- 1:26:22Speaker 14: pain that people are feeling in our country. And I
- 1:26:25Speaker 14: think we need leaders who are going to take on
- 1:26:28Speaker 14: the corruption, who are very practical with addressing issues around
- 1:26:31Speaker 14: cost and health care. But we also need leaders who
- 1:26:35Speaker 14: will remind us who we are when we stand together.
- 1:26:38Speaker 14: The nation needs to be healed.
- 1:26:39Speaker 7: What do you say when you see what happened Tuesday?
- 1:26:42Speaker 7: Because that's what gave me the case for optimism, right?
- 1:26:44Speaker 7: I'm like, when I see Texas go blue and Georgia
- 1:26:47Speaker 7: go blue and South Carolina, where I'm from, go blue,
- 1:26:49Speaker 7: I'm like, maybe people aren't as spiritually sick as I
- 1:26:52Speaker 7: thought they were.
- 1:26:53Speaker 14: I think they had enough. I think they had enough.
- 1:26:56Speaker 14: What I'm saying, I think they went on the Trump ride.
- 1:26:58Speaker 14: I mean, there's a big dose, right, of racism and
- 1:27:01Speaker 14: xenophobia and all kinds of stuff in that.
- 1:27:03Speaker 2: Awful story, right? But what I'm saying is.
- 1:27:08Speaker 14: When year after year, decade after decade, government doesn't deliver
- 1:27:13Speaker 14: to people what they need, it opens the door to
- 1:27:16Speaker 14: demagogues who stand up and say everything is messed.
- 1:27:20Speaker 2: Up and I'm the only one, remember that? I'm the
- 1:27:22Speaker 2: only one who can fix it.
- 1:27:24Speaker 14: So I'm saying the brokenness, the wealth inequality, people not
- 1:27:29Speaker 14: being able to send their kids to decent schools to
- 1:27:32Speaker 14: know that they can see a doctor when they're sick.
- 1:27:35Speaker 14: There's a kind of cynicism that sets in like gangrene
- 1:27:38Speaker 14: in the body politic. And for me, that's not just
- 1:27:41Speaker 14: a political problem. You know, I'm a pastor. I see
- 1:27:44Speaker 14: it as a spiritual problem. And I see the work
- 1:27:46Speaker 14: that I get to do delivering things that my constituents need.
- 1:27:53Speaker 14: I see that as spiritual work. I'm proud of the
- 1:27:55Speaker 14: fact that so far in my tenure as a senator,
- 1:27:59Speaker 14: I've delivered some $ 17 billion to historically black colleges and
- 1:28:03Speaker 14: universities because I know firsthand that those schools have been
- 1:28:08Speaker 14: punching way above their weight. They've been delivering so much
- 1:28:11Speaker 14: to so many for so long. People expect them to
- 1:28:14Speaker 14: just make a way out of nowhere. I'm proud of
- 1:28:16Speaker 14: the fact that in our bipartisan housing bill that we
- 1:28:19Speaker 14: got through, I saw the show where you guys were
- 1:28:22Speaker 14: talking about it. It was my provision that dealt with
- 1:28:24Speaker 14: private equity. and saying that they can't swoop into our
- 1:28:27Speaker 14: communities and just buy huge swaths of housing, driving up
- 1:28:32Speaker 14: the price for ordinary people.
- 1:28:34Speaker 2: So I think people need us to deliver.
- 1:28:38Speaker 8: When you see Keishon Lance Bottoms defeat a billionaire, right?
- 1:28:40Speaker 7: I think he spent 200 million or something like that.
- 1:28:43Speaker 8: What does that tell you about the limits of money
- 1:28:45Speaker 8: in politics?
- 1:28:46Speaker 14: Well, that was the contest, right? And it was the
- 1:28:50Speaker 14: thing that I was praying about. It was a classic
- 1:28:52Speaker 14: contest between message and mission on one hand and money
- 1:28:57Speaker 14: on the other. And I'm glad that at least in
- 1:28:59Speaker 14: this episode, This time, the message and the mission won.
- 1:29:04Speaker 14: I think that the people of Georgia, after being made
- 1:29:09Speaker 14: familiar with a billionaire president who promises that he can
- 1:29:12Speaker 14: just deliver and you ought to trust that he knows
- 1:29:14Speaker 14: what he's doing because he's a billionaire.
- 1:29:16Speaker 2: I think people have already seen that movie.
- 1:29:18Speaker 14: They're literally watching it play out in real time. This
- 1:29:21Speaker 14: man spent $ 200 million of his own money, a lot
- 1:29:23Speaker 14: of which he made on Georgia taxpayers, profiting from hospitals closing.
- 1:29:27Speaker 28: Mm-hmm.
- 1:29:28Speaker 14: I think the question before Georgia voters where that race
- 1:29:31Speaker 14: is concerned in part was, is Georgia for sale? And
- 1:29:35Speaker 14: the people of Georgia stood up and said, absolutely not.
- 1:29:38Speaker 14: Georgia's not for sale.
- 1:29:39Speaker 7: I got one last question, because I really think that
- 1:29:42Speaker 7: I have to we have to stress this over and
- 1:29:44Speaker 7: over the next few months.
- 1:29:46Speaker 21: Right.
- 1:29:47Speaker 7: What should a working class voter who supported Democrats expect
- 1:29:52Speaker 7: to be different? in their life a year from now.
- 1:29:55Speaker 7: Because you still got a president in the White House
- 1:29:58Speaker 7: who's got a lot of veto power.
- 1:29:59Speaker 11: Oh, he posted the hat with the veto.
- 1:30:01Speaker 7: That's what I'm saying. So I'm not talking about what
- 1:30:03Speaker 7: they expect to be different in Washington. What should they
- 1:30:05Speaker 7: expect to be different in their household? Because that's what
- 1:30:07Speaker 7: they're going to be voting on in 2028.
- 1:30:10Speaker 14: Look, I'm on the Finance Committee, on the Trade Subcommittee,
- 1:30:14Speaker 14: which deals with these tariffs. We've got to put a
- 1:30:17Speaker 14: stop to these tariffs. If you ended the tariffs, that
- 1:30:21Speaker 14: would bring people... some economic relief, that alone. And so
- 1:30:26Speaker 14: I'm going to be pushing my Republican colleagues to vote
- 1:30:28Speaker 14: with us on this issue.
- 1:30:30Speaker 2: Hopefully they will.
- 1:30:30Speaker 14: If they don't, we will remind the American people in
- 1:30:33Speaker 14: 28 that they didn't.
- 1:30:35Speaker 2: Stick with us.
- 1:30:35Speaker 14: But we ought to try to, we ought to make
- 1:30:38Speaker 14: an earnest effort To get rid of these tariffs and not,
- 1:30:40Speaker 14: you know, we don't want to make it a political issue.
- 1:30:42Speaker 8: I want to deliver relief. But it might end up
- 1:30:44Speaker 8: being a political issue.
- 1:30:45Speaker 2: But you ought to try to deliver relief. Yes. If
- 1:30:48Speaker 2: you can.
- 1:30:48Speaker 8: But you got to make a spectacle of these things.
- 1:30:50Speaker 7: When you bring them to the floor and they bolt
- 1:30:53Speaker 7: them down, you got to let everybody know, hey.
- 1:30:55Speaker 2: So that's the beauty of Tuesday night, right?
- 1:30:57Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 1:30:57Speaker 2: Because had it gone the other way, we couldn't put
- 1:30:59Speaker 2: anything on the floor. That's right. That's right.
- 1:31:01Speaker 14: It'd be harder. So we control the floor now. So
- 1:31:05Speaker 14: we ought to put the tabs up. We ought to
- 1:31:09Speaker 14: put the War Powers Resolution, which is also driving up
- 1:31:12Speaker 14: people's costs and making us less safe.
- 1:31:14Speaker 2: We ought to put that up. We ought to put
- 1:31:16Speaker 2: up votes on these premium tax credits.
- 1:31:20Speaker 14: Remember that we had an epic fight trying to get
- 1:31:23Speaker 14: them to do it, and they decided not to. Maybe
- 1:31:27Speaker 14: after getting shellacked like they did Tuesday night, we can
- 1:31:31Speaker 14: have a different kind of conversation.
- 1:31:32Speaker 2: At least I think that's what we ought to try
- 1:31:34Speaker 2: to do.
- 1:31:34Speaker 11: All right.
- 1:31:35Speaker 7: Senator Raphael Warnock of Georgia, 2028 presidential.
- 1:31:40Speaker 11: Headed for higher office with his.
- 1:31:42Speaker 8: He said y'all.
- 1:31:43Speaker 11: Are a happy couple, you and Ossoff.
- 1:31:45Speaker 2: Ossoff and I, yeah, we work closely together.
- 1:31:47Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 1:31:48Speaker 2: And that's been good for Georgia. And now we got
- 1:31:50Speaker 2: a governor named Keisha.
- 1:31:52Speaker 8: Hey, that could be a hell.
- 1:31:53Speaker 11: Of a ticket in 2028, Ossoff, Warnock. That's what the
- 1:31:56Speaker 11: people say.
- 1:31:56Speaker 8: No, for real, Warnock, Ossoff, however it goes, that could
- 1:31:59Speaker 8: be a hell of a ticket in 2028.
- 1:32:00Speaker 12: All right.
- 1:32:03Speaker 2: From your mouth to God's ears. Okay. All right.
- 1:32:06Speaker 11: That's what your mouth be saying to God too?
- 1:32:10Speaker 14: God and I have had a wonderful ongoing relationship since
- 1:32:15Speaker 14: I was a child. And one of the things I
- 1:32:17Speaker 14: certainly pray about a lot is discernment. And I just
- 1:32:20Speaker 14: want to be able to use my gifts in the
- 1:32:23Speaker 14: best way possible. particularly at a moment like this.
- 1:32:26Speaker 2: All right.
- 1:32:26Speaker 7: Honored to be here with you. Thank you for coming, man.
- 1:32:29Speaker 7: It's Senator Raphael Warnock. It's The Breakfast Club.

- 1:32:56Speaker 19: Brought to you by Top Dog Law.
- 1:32:58Speaker 3: On The Breakfast Club.

- 1:33:01Speaker 25: So over the weekend, guys, Young Miami was given the
- 1:33:05Speaker 25: key to the city in Miami. But she was also
- 1:33:08Speaker 25: given her own day officially now, October 23rd, which was
- 1:33:12Speaker 25: the day that she dropped her debut album.

- 1:33:41Speaker 4: Brownlee Day, baby.
- 1:33:44Speaker 12: I never imagined to be here today receiving my own
- 1:33:47Speaker 12: day or the keys to the city. Especially coming from
- 1:33:51Speaker 12: where I come from, it's just proof that, you know,
- 1:33:53Speaker 12: you can be whatever it is that you want to be.
- 1:33:55Speaker 11: The sky's the limit.
- 1:33:57Speaker 4: And you got this.

- 1:34:11Speaker 8: Go record with Travis Scott. Just Might Go. Just Might Go.
- 1:34:15Speaker 3: Just Might Go.
- 1:34:15Speaker 8: If you put some money behind it. I thought that
- 1:34:17Speaker 8: was what was happening.
- 1:34:18Speaker 20: Yes.
- 1:34:19Speaker 2: Yes, you do.
- 1:34:19Speaker 4: All right.
- 1:34:20Speaker 11: Well, shifting gears a bit. Another music conversation, though. Dr.
- 1:34:23Speaker 25: Dre and Ice Cube had a back and forth for
- 1:34:26Speaker 25: a debate about AI. So they sat down for Ice
- 1:34:29Speaker 25: Cube and Mike Epps' new podcast that they have called
- 1:34:32Speaker 25: It was a really great episode.
- 1:34:33Speaker 11: They talked about a ton of different things.
- 1:34:34Speaker 8: It was funny.
- 1:34:35Speaker 25: Yeah, funny, but also a really good music conversation. Let's
- 1:34:39Speaker 25: get into the AI part of it.
- 1:34:41Speaker 11: So Dr. Dre and Ice Cube.
- 1:34:44Speaker 15: On AI.
- 1:34:45Speaker 11: Let's take a listen.
- 1:34:46Speaker 2: What's your take on AI? Are you worried about it
- 1:34:50Speaker 2: in any way, shape or form?
- 1:34:52Speaker 1: I'm extremely excited about AI.
- 1:34:56Speaker 2: I love it. I love the potential of it.
- 1:34:58Speaker 1: I love the idea of where we could possibly go,
- 1:35:01Speaker 1: you know, with music, with film. I think the only
- 1:35:04Speaker 1: people that are going to be mad about the elevation
- 1:35:07Speaker 1: are of AI.
- 1:35:08Speaker 2: Or the people who aren't that creative.
- 1:35:10Speaker 1: You can't be mad at how everything is moving and
- 1:35:13Speaker 1: elevating creatively, right? And especially the technology. What if you
- 1:35:17Speaker 1: were mad at sampling? I mean, we wouldn't be sitting
- 1:35:20Speaker 1: here right now. I mean, you know, yeah, I understand that.
- 1:35:23Speaker 1: You have to get used to it or you're going
- 1:35:25Speaker 1: to be left behind.
- 1:35:26Speaker 8: Yeah, no doubt.
- 1:35:27Speaker 2: I ain't saying to fight it.
- 1:35:29Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 1:35:29Speaker 1: So if we're talking about elevation and we're talking about
- 1:35:32Speaker 1: technology specifically, you have to get used to that. Not
- 1:35:36Speaker 1: only get used to that, But learn how to make
- 1:35:38Speaker 1: it work to your benefit. That's very scary for somebody
- 1:35:41Speaker 1: like Dr.
- 1:35:42Speaker 8: Dre, right? Because Dr. Dre has a particular sound, right?
- 1:35:44Speaker 8: He has a West Coast sound.
- 1:35:46Speaker 6: And you can use AI to replicate that sound and
- 1:35:49Speaker 6: don't necessarily have to pay Dr. Dre what he's worth
- 1:35:51Speaker 6: and pretty much sound the same.
- 1:35:53Speaker 8: Which is scary.
- 1:35:54Speaker 25: His point in the conversation in the podcast is called
- 1:35:56Speaker 25: Listen to Laugh. was that if you can control that,
- 1:35:58Speaker 25: like if you own your likeness and your image and
- 1:36:00Speaker 25: all the things and you're licensing it out, you can, like,
- 1:36:02Speaker 25: it's good business. It's just where the times are headed.
- 1:36:05Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean, the conversation is broad.
- 1:36:08Speaker 7: I would have to listen to the whole interview in context,
- 1:36:10Speaker 7: but it's just like, what exactly is he using it for?
- 1:36:12Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 1:36:13Speaker 7: I guess it's one thing to just be like, I'm
- 1:36:14Speaker 7: excited about AI, but what exactly are you using AI for?
- 1:36:17Speaker 25: Well, Ice Cube also asked them or brought in a
- 1:36:19Speaker 25: conversation about like AI artists specifically and creating your own
- 1:36:22Speaker 25: AI artists.
- 1:36:23Speaker 11: Let's take a listen to that.
- 1:36:25Speaker 2: What's wrong with creating an artist?
- 1:36:27Speaker 8: You can't.
- 1:36:27Speaker 1: To me, a creative Whitney Houston should never get the
- 1:36:31Speaker 1: respect of a real Whitney Houston.
- 1:36:34Speaker 2: Because you're thinking about yesterday, not tomorrow. I'm thinking about tomorrow,
- 1:36:39Speaker 2: and I'm thinking about how far it can go.
- 1:36:41Speaker 1: Eventually, it can go to a place with this AI
- 1:36:45Speaker 1: shit where we're not necessary or needed.
- 1:36:48Speaker 2: Yeah, they create their own song.
- 1:36:49Speaker 1: Right now, you need a human being to create that
- 1:36:53Speaker 1: music or that film. I'm in complete control of this
- 1:36:57Speaker 1: AI person that I created, and I'm in complete control
- 1:37:00Speaker 1: of what.
- 1:37:01Speaker 2: He or she says.
- 1:37:02Speaker 1: So the computers say you're not smart enough to be
- 1:37:05Speaker 1: in control of this career.
- 1:37:06Speaker 6: You're just a human. We f * * * ed this.
- 1:37:08Speaker 2: Watch out, Dr. Dre. What the f * * *
- 1:37:11Speaker 2: are you going to do with that?
- 1:37:13Speaker 7: I agree with Cube on that one. I agree with
- 1:37:15Speaker 7: Cube on that one. The reality is an AI Whitney
- 1:37:17Speaker 7: Houston will never get the respect of a real Whitney
- 1:37:20Speaker 7: Houston because Whitney had a God-given gift.
- 1:37:23Speaker 2: Okay?
- 1:37:24Speaker 7: Like, you can't create that in a laboratory or on
- 1:37:28Speaker 7: artificial intelligence.
- 1:37:29Speaker 6: You can. You can create that. You just can't do
- 1:37:32Speaker 6: it live.
- 1:37:32Speaker 8: It won't be the same. But you can create.
- 1:37:34Speaker 11: She'll never be able to perform it again.
- 1:37:36Speaker 6: And that's the scary. AI can create.
- 1:37:37Speaker 7: Create but ai will never be able to do what
- 1:37:41Speaker 7: whitney did to us at that superbowl you'll never get
- 1:37:46Speaker 7: that feeling.
- 1:37:48Speaker 25: But they can recreate our vocals absolutely with no.
- 1:37:51Speaker 6: Soul right it'll have soul it's not gonna have soul.
- 1:37:56Speaker 25: But do you think because you know how now like
- 1:37:57Speaker 25: a lot of places even here we do like uh
- 1:37:59Speaker 25: human only like you have to make the distinction between
- 1:38:02Speaker 25: ai and guarantee human right That people's ears will get
- 1:38:04Speaker 25: to the point where you won't even really know or
- 1:38:06Speaker 25: feel the difference because some people will come up on
- 1:38:07Speaker 25: these AI automated.
- 1:38:09Speaker 11: Music and made artists. Like, it'll be different.
- 1:38:11Speaker 25: Like, samples are normal to us, but y'all remember when
- 1:38:14Speaker 25: sampling was like the innovative thing?
- 1:38:16Speaker 8: First of all, first of all, first of all, shut
- 1:38:17Speaker 8: your ass up.
- 1:38:18Speaker 11: Okay?
- 1:38:19Speaker 8: All right? We was born in 1978. You don't remember
- 1:38:22Speaker 8: when it was an innovative thing.
- 1:38:23Speaker 2: Yes, you do.
- 1:38:24Speaker 8: I didn't know them songs were sampled.
- 1:38:25Speaker 2: It was way, way before.
- 1:38:26Speaker 6: But I let you hear, don't say the artist's name.
- 1:38:28Speaker 6: I let you hear artists that you thought it was...
- 1:38:30Speaker 6: the actual artist and it had the same soul, the
- 1:38:32Speaker 6: same sound, the same everything.
- 1:38:33Speaker 11: It's tricky out here. And you're cool with the artists.
- 1:38:36Speaker 6: So I was like, oh, we did that for you?
- 1:38:37Speaker 8: And you was like, no.
- 1:38:38Speaker 21: No.
- 1:38:39Speaker 11: Oh, my God.
- 1:38:40Speaker 1: Crazy.
- 1:38:41Speaker 25: Well, another thing from the convo that I thought was interesting, Dr.
- 1:38:43Speaker 25: Dre is talking about taking a step back to figure
- 1:38:45Speaker 25: out what else in life he wants to do besides
- 1:38:47Speaker 25: music in a real way.
- 1:38:48Speaker 11: Let's take a listen to Dr. Dre on taking a sabbatical.
- 1:38:50Speaker 1: This year, 2026, this summer marks 41 years that I've
- 1:38:54Speaker 1: been here. So I'm thinking about like moving on to
- 1:38:58Speaker 1: some other things. What if music is like in the
- 1:39:01Speaker 1: way of something else that I'm supposed to be doing?
- 1:39:04Speaker 2: And I'm so.
- 1:39:06Speaker 1: excited about the discovery of the man I'm going to
- 1:39:08Speaker 1: be next. For the first time in my entire adult career,
- 1:39:12Speaker 1: I'm going to take a break from that. I'm going
- 1:39:13Speaker 1: to get off the grid for a year or two
- 1:39:16Speaker 1: and come back. In these 40 years, how many years
- 1:39:20Speaker 1: have you spent inside the studio?
- 1:39:22Speaker 8: All of them.
- 1:39:23Speaker 2: You never leave it.
- 1:39:24Speaker 1: Even when you're outside of the studio, you're thinking about,
- 1:39:27Speaker 1: you know, you're looking at... storefronts or bumper stickers or
- 1:39:30Speaker 1: something that can give you an idea for the next
- 1:39:33Speaker 1: time that you go in the studio. You're always tethered
- 1:39:35Speaker 1: to this thing and for the first time in my life,
- 1:39:37Speaker 1: I won't be because that's taking up space that something
- 1:39:41Speaker 1: else can jump in there.
- 1:39:42Speaker 7: 41 years in the studio, how much music have we
- 1:39:45Speaker 7: actually heard?
- 1:39:45Speaker 8: You know what I'm saying?
- 1:39:47Speaker 7: I think about all the records you hear about Dre
- 1:39:48Speaker 7: doing that you've never heard, all the albums that got scrapped.
- 1:39:51Speaker 25: He talked about that, though, in his interview. He said
- 1:39:52Speaker 25: a lot of his music people have not heard still.
- 1:39:54Speaker 25: There's things involved that I don't even know we'll ever
- 1:39:57Speaker 25: even hear if we'll ever get it.
- 1:39:58Speaker 6: It was a great conversation.
- 1:39:59Speaker 2: Great conversation.
- 1:40:00Speaker 6: I've seen parts of it. If you get a chance,
- 1:40:01Speaker 6: check it out. Where can they watch that?
- 1:40:03Speaker 11: It's on YouTube. It's called the Listen and Laugh Podcast.
- 1:40:06Speaker 25: It's a new podcast that Ice Cube and Mike Epps
- 1:40:08Speaker 25: are doing together. They're sitting on the step from Friday
- 1:40:10Speaker 25: and they're having these conversations.
- 1:40:12Speaker 8: Oh, wow.
- 1:40:12Speaker 2: That's fire.
- 1:40:13Speaker 8: Funniest question.
- 1:40:13Speaker 6: When they asked him, Epps asked Dr. Dre, you know,
- 1:40:17Speaker 6: how would Martin Luther King feel the fact that you
- 1:40:19Speaker 6: work with the white boy Eminem?
- 1:40:20Speaker 2: Hilarious.
- 1:40:21Speaker 9: Crazy.
- 1:40:21Speaker 19: Hilarious.
- 1:40:22Speaker 8: You can listen to it, too, though. It's available wherever
- 1:40:24Speaker 8: you listen to podcasts.
