- 2:18Speaker 4: that was traveling, all right, if you are traveling, I
- 2:21Speaker 4: feel bad for you. Yesterday, myself and Lauren la Rosa
- 2:24Speaker 4: was stuck in the airport for four hours and they
- 2:26Speaker 4: said to over.
- 2:26Speaker 1: Three thousand flights were canceled.
- 2:28Speaker 4: People were stranded, And the biggest thing with people is,
- 2:30Speaker 4: you know, when you are stranded, you got to pay
- 2:33Speaker 4: for a hotel because the airlines don't give you that
- 2:36Speaker 4: money for hotel. So a lot of people couldn't afford
- 2:38Speaker 4: to stay in the hotel.
- 2:38Speaker 6: So that the airlines don't do that some of them.
- 2:41Speaker 4: Sometimes, but not when it's I think, I guess what
- 2:44Speaker 4: is the act of God when it's related or whatever?
- 2:47Speaker 1: Maybe correct? So, uh, salute to everybody that stuck out there.
- 2:51Speaker 4: If you have to fly out today or you are
- 2:53Speaker 4: moving around, just give your airlines a call and make
- 2:55Speaker 4: sure your flights can be there because them flights were
- 2:57Speaker 4: delayed yesterday.
- 2:58Speaker 1: Being stuck in the airport with Laura Larrossa sounds like torture.
- 3:00Speaker 5: I don't know what you did to God to have
- 3:02Speaker 5: to have to experience something like that.
- 3:03Speaker 1: But my god, I wasn't bad.
- 3:06Speaker 4: She was cool like Laura she you know, she got
- 3:08Speaker 4: up Momos's and then she was good money.
- 3:10Speaker 1: She was cool. She was cool. All right, Well let's

- 3:47Speaker 4: Yeah he's been, he's been online or I guess a
- 3:49Speaker 4: waiting list for a heart man, so, and I guess
- 3:52Speaker 4: they decide who he gets the heart, depending on how
- 3:54Speaker 4: bad you are so he's been waiting online for a
- 3:57Speaker 4: long time.
- 3:57Speaker 5: Cardiovascula is she was a no joke man to the

- 4:34Speaker 4: little bit later. Yes, indeed, let's get in some front
- 4:37Speaker 4: page news. So in World Baseball, I don't know if
- 4:40Speaker 4: you guys have been following, if you guys have been watching,
- 4:42Speaker 4: but the US will be taking on Veniceueling for the
- 4:46Speaker 4: championship game and that game goes down to nights.
- 4:49Speaker 1: So go U s A is the Venezuelan team. Nice,
- 4:53Speaker 1: they got all stars.
- 4:55Speaker 5: All the Spanish countries are nice, though, how they feel
- 4:57Speaker 5: about America since American Witness and that's the day President.
- 5:02Speaker 1: Venezuela, Yeah, a couple months ago. I know what, what's that?
- 5:06Speaker 5: Me?
- 5:06Speaker 1: Me?
- 5:08Speaker 9: Good morning?
- 5:08Speaker 6: MV Josh Charlamage. How y'all doing this morning? Good morning.
- 5:13Speaker 9: So we started this morning with a powerful storm system
- 5:16Speaker 9: impacting millions across the country. So nearly thirty million people
- 5:20Speaker 9: are under a winter weather alert, including blizzard conditions in
- 5:23Speaker 9: cities like Chicago and Detroit. And at the same time,
- 5:27Speaker 9: strong winds are hitting a much larger stretch of the
- 5:29Speaker 9: country from Saint Louis to Memphis, all the way up
- 5:31Speaker 9: to New York City and Boston. And it's not just that,
- 5:34Speaker 9: about sixty million people are at risk for severe storms,
- 5:37Speaker 9: including possible tornadoes, from Atlanta all the way to Washington,
- 5:41Speaker 9: d C.
- 5:42Speaker 6: And with more than a half a.
- 5:43Speaker 9: Million people, they are still without power this morning from
- 5:46Speaker 9: those storms and all of this spilling into travel, with
- 5:49Speaker 9: ripple effects continuing into today. So yesterday alone, and you
- 5:53Speaker 9: you mentioned this a little bit, more than forty five
- 5:56Speaker 9: hundred flights were canceled, nearly ten thousand delayed nationwide, and
- 6:01Speaker 9: those disruptions are now carrying into today. So even if
- 6:04Speaker 9: you your flight is on time. Getting through the airport
- 6:07Speaker 9: could be your biggest challenge. So that partial government shutdown
- 6:10Speaker 9: is to blame for all of this. It is now
- 6:12Speaker 9: straining TSA staff and other officers who miss a paycheck
- 6:16Speaker 9: last week. Here's a TSA union leader talking about the impact.
- 6:20Speaker 6: Let's take a listen.
- 6:22Speaker 10: When they're working all day, they're thinking about, man, what
- 6:25Speaker 10: am I going to have to do when I get
- 6:26Speaker 10: off work. Some people are going to food line, some
- 6:28Speaker 10: people are working part time jobs, some people are feeling
- 6:32Speaker 10: pretty hopeless. And obviously the passengers are filling the impact
- 6:36Speaker 10: as the lines get long when their colleagues are unable
- 6:39Speaker 10: to come to work because they don't have money. A
- 6:41Speaker 10: lot of them don't have gas, childcare, or basically no
- 6:44Speaker 10: money in their accounts, and they can't borrow anything because
- 6:47Speaker 10: they already did it from the previous show down.
- 6:48Speaker 1: They just haven't recovered. I hate that y'all have to
- 6:53Speaker 1: go through this man yet again, by.
- 6:55Speaker 7: The way, Yeah, and I hate that we can't give them.
- 6:57Speaker 7: They can't even accept anything from passengers passing through.
- 7:01Speaker 9: Yeah. A lot of agencies to your point, just a
- 7:03Speaker 9: lot of like food banks and agencies have been collecting
- 7:07Speaker 9: money and groceries and they're they're giving away so TSA
- 7:12Speaker 9: agents can go there to pick up locations and get
- 7:14Speaker 9: what they need. A nationwide, more than three hundred and
- 7:17Speaker 9: sixty TSA officers have already quit in the past month,
- 7:20Speaker 9: while others, yeah, are taking leave to pick up other
- 7:24Speaker 9: work just to make ends meet.
- 7:26Speaker 1: And this morning.
- 7:26Speaker 9: Airline CEOs they are begging Congress to pay TSA workers,
- 7:30Speaker 9: telling them it is difficult and nearly impossible to put
- 7:33Speaker 9: food on the table, gas in the car and pay
- 7:35Speaker 9: rent when you are not getting paid.
- 7:38Speaker 5: Yes, I can see you being a TSA working and
- 7:40Speaker 5: quitting because I mean it feels like that job isn't
- 7:42Speaker 5: isn't as stable as it once was, not on this administration.
- 7:45Speaker 1: Not at all.
- 7:46Speaker 4: And like you said, when you go in through TSA,
- 7:48Speaker 4: just say thank you because like you, they have. Some
- 7:49Speaker 4: of them haven't got paid. They got to work double shifts.
- 7:51Speaker 4: And it's actually a brother that works at Laguardy that's
- 7:53Speaker 4: coming to the podcast festival, the Black Effect podcasts. Yes,
- 7:57Speaker 4: he's going to pitch a podcast. He does a podcast,
- 8:00Speaker 4: and he told me he's going to see me out there.
- 8:02Speaker 4: I can give him some tickets. So to that brother,
- 8:04Speaker 4: you know, would want him to pay at a time
- 8:06Speaker 4: like this. You know, well, I'm gon see him. I
- 8:08Speaker 4: got to fly this weekend.
- 8:09Speaker 1: I saw. I'm sure I see him this weekend, so
- 8:10Speaker 1: I'll get his information. You quit, I see him this weekend.
- 8:17Speaker 9: And President Trump is ripping into US allies who are
- 8:21Speaker 9: refusing to help secure the straight of her moves. So
- 8:24Speaker 9: several key partners, including the UK, Germany, France, Italy, Australia
- 8:28Speaker 9: and Japan say they are not sending warships to the
- 8:30Speaker 9: region right now. And this comes as Iran has effectively
- 8:34Speaker 9: effectively shut down the shipping lane using drones, mischel missiles,
- 8:37Speaker 9: and sea mines after the US recent strikes and the
- 8:41Speaker 9: Israeli strikes. That Trump says countries that benefit from that
- 8:44Speaker 9: route should help protect it and is warning NATO that
- 8:47Speaker 9: there could be a very bad future for them if they.
- 8:50Speaker 6: Don't step up.
- 8:51Speaker 9: But many US allies they are still not getting involved militarily.
- 8:55Speaker 9: Let's listen to what President Trump had to say at
- 8:58Speaker 9: a White House press conference yesterday.
- 9:00Speaker 1: Not only thinking as they should be helping us. What
- 9:02Speaker 1: does surprise me is that they're not eager.
- 9:06Speaker 5: To Numerous countries have told me they're on the way
- 9:10Speaker 5: Some are very enthusiastic about it, and some are in
- 9:14Speaker 5: summer countries.
- 9:15Speaker 1: That we've helped for many, many years.
- 9:17Speaker 5: We've protected them, and well, we want to know, do
- 9:20Speaker 5: you have any mind sweepers?
- 9:22Speaker 1: Well, would rather not get involved, sir. What the hell
- 9:26Speaker 1: is a mind sweep That's not like something on the
- 9:28Speaker 1: video game.
- 9:28Speaker 4: Yeah, I guys, that's some kind of device that detects
- 9:32Speaker 4: bomb mine bottom of.
- 9:35Speaker 6: Mine, the bomb, the.
- 9:36Speaker 1: Bombs and the mind. The mine is mine, not mine,
- 9:40Speaker 1: I say, mom, I said mine. That's a mind detective.
- 9:43Speaker 4: Is you know you can check you know, in the
- 9:45Speaker 4: bombs and.
- 9:47Speaker 1: You know you just named five of them before the
- 9:49Speaker 1: show started that I have to quit. Well.
- 9:53Speaker 9: Germany is the country that says they are not getting involved,
- 9:56Speaker 9: they do not want to participate. The UK says it
- 9:58Speaker 9: wants stability but will not be pulled into a wider conflict,
- 10:02Speaker 9: and other countries, including France and Italy, they are just
- 10:04Speaker 9: calling for diplomacy, not escalation. Meanwhile, gas prices did go
- 10:09Speaker 9: up again, guys. They've gone up about eighty one since
- 10:11Speaker 9: since the start of the war, and more than two
- 10:13Speaker 9: hundred US service members have been injured and at least
- 10:16Speaker 9: thirteen killed since the conflicts started.
- 10:18Speaker 5: The gas prices got the airline ticket sky high too,
- 10:21Speaker 5: by the way.
- 10:23Speaker 6: Go too.
- 10:24Speaker 9: It's gonna spill into groceries I read yesterday. It's going
- 10:26Speaker 9: to spill into generic medicine for people, prescription prescription drugs.
- 10:31Speaker 9: It's it's gonna be far reaching for a while. So
- 10:35Speaker 9: and coming up at seven, you guys, a major retailer
- 10:37Speaker 9: of sending out cash payments you could be eligible, will
- 10:40Speaker 9: tell you what you need to know in the next hour.

- 19:17Speaker 2: On the breakfast club talk talk to me all.
- 19:21Speaker 20: Right, guys, So this morning, I want to take some
- 19:23Speaker 20: time to send a recipece to Keiki Shepherd, the longtime
- 19:27Speaker 20: co host of the legendary Showtime at the Apollo, also
- 19:31Speaker 20: known as the Apollo's Queen of Fashion. So late last night,
- 19:35Speaker 20: TMZ spoke to Kiki Shepherd's rep. Her name is Cheryl Smith,
- 19:39Speaker 20: and she said that key Key Shepherd had passed away
- 19:42Speaker 20: a Monday and by a massive heart attack that was
- 19:45Speaker 20: completely unexpected. She was in her seventy seventy two years old,
- 19:50Speaker 20: I believe, and her career extended many, many years. So
- 19:55Speaker 20: she worked at the show time. She worked at show
- 19:56Speaker 20: Time at the Apollo from nineteen eighty seven. In two
- 19:58Speaker 20: thousand and two, she co with Simbag, Mark Curry, Monique,
- 20:02Speaker 20: Steve Harvey, Rudy Rush. She was a professional dancer before
- 20:07Speaker 20: she got on show Time at the Apollo. She was
- 20:09Speaker 20: on Broadway as well. She worked with Lionel Richie, Diana Ross,
- 20:12Speaker 20: she was in the whiz like. She's done so many things,
- 20:15Speaker 20: but I know most recently she had been doing a
- 20:18Speaker 20: lot of work with her foundation called the Kiss Foundation,
- 20:20Speaker 20: which is all about spreading awareness of sickle cell disease
- 20:23Speaker 20: and just making sure that people who have sickle cell
- 20:25Speaker 20: disease experience a good and healthy life.
- 20:28Speaker 5: So you know, that was part of our childhood right there,
- 20:33Speaker 5: watching Keky Shepherd come out every week at the show
- 20:36Speaker 5: time at the Apollo.
- 20:37Speaker 20: Seventy four yes, s seventy two sorry, seventy four yes, yes,
- 20:41Speaker 20: Rest in peace to her.
- 20:43Speaker 6: Now, just going to shift gears a bit.
- 20:46Speaker 20: So the Oscars happened Sunday night is now Tuesday, and
- 20:50Speaker 20: people are still having conversations about the Oscars.
- 20:53Speaker 6: Antiana Taylor, which is honestly a good thing.
- 20:55Speaker 20: But the conversations are about the conversation we had yesterday
- 20:58Speaker 20: with the security guard. So all right, so yesterday I
- 21:02Speaker 20: played an audio for you guys of Tiana and you
- 21:05Speaker 20: know she's telling somebody to leave her alone or get
- 21:07Speaker 20: off her. Let's say a listen to that audio, Tiana
- 21:09Speaker 20: tell the original audio.
- 21:17Speaker 17: I guess.
- 21:21Speaker 1: Even he shoved me.
- 21:25Speaker 20: Now, so that was the original audio that you know
- 21:27Speaker 20: I've played for you guys, but wanted you to hear
- 21:29Speaker 20: it now. Since then, Tiana Taylor has spoken out about
- 21:32Speaker 20: what happened uh on that at that incident with that
- 21:35Speaker 20: security guard. Let's take a listen to that the video,
- 21:37Speaker 20: whether that's got put hands on you or something.
- 21:40Speaker 1: They can't stop your shine.
- 21:44Speaker 21: Shining.
- 21:45Speaker 6: Everybody's having a good time and.
- 21:48Speaker 21: Just doing a lot always that one.
- 21:50Speaker 1: But yeah, a lot of people were wondering.
- 21:53Speaker 6: I mean, it's nothing to wonder. I think the first
- 21:56Speaker 6: thing people do is definitely make assumptions. Then I just don't.
- 22:01Speaker 21: Tolerate disrespects, and she when it's unwarranted and it's unprovoked,
- 22:05Speaker 21: and she was coming out of an Oscar party, so
- 22:07Speaker 21: her voice is a little like, yeah, but so since then,
- 22:11Speaker 21: there's been conversation online about whether.
- 22:13Speaker 20: She was right or wrong for saying that the security
- 22:16Speaker 20: guard had shoved her and moved her in a way
- 22:18Speaker 20: that she didn't like, to the point where the Academy
- 22:20Speaker 20: has had to come out and make a statement in
- 22:22Speaker 20: support of Tianna Taylor, which she thanked them for making
- 22:25Speaker 20: the statement. So the Academy said, we were extremely upset
- 22:27Speaker 20: to learn about the experience and endured by Tiana Taylor
- 22:29Speaker 20: at the end of the Oscar ceremony last night. We
- 22:31Speaker 20: have worked with Tiana over the last several months during
- 22:34Speaker 20: award season, and she has been nothing short of remarkable, supportive, kind,
- 22:37Speaker 20: and all about community. Though the incident was with an
- 22:39Speaker 20: outside security security firm, the farm is called SIS, the
- 22:43Speaker 20: experience of every single guest is our responsibility, and they
- 22:46Speaker 20: say they've made it clear to that team that that
- 22:48Speaker 20: behavior was unacceptable, and they thanked Tianna Taylor for showing
- 22:52Speaker 20: remarkable grace and taking and say that they are taking
- 22:54Speaker 20: their appropriate measures to make sure that this doesn't happen again.
- 22:57Speaker 20: The security company also made a statement and said kind
- 22:59Speaker 20: of the same thing that they apologized for how the
- 23:02Speaker 20: incident went down and that they're handling it internally to
- 23:05Speaker 20: make sure this doesn't happen again. I reached out to
- 23:06Speaker 20: see if the guard was actually fired, and they told
- 23:09Speaker 20: me no comment, And then they won't the academy won't
- 23:13Speaker 20: comment on if they're never going to like work with
- 23:15Speaker 20: this third party.
- 23:15Speaker 7: Company or they're like, nah, it was external. But you
- 23:19Speaker 7: know what, remember h Kelly rolling through something like that. Yeah, yeah,
- 23:24Speaker 7: so they can be a little you know, pushy.
- 23:27Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 23:28Speaker 20: I just I just hate to see the conversation about
- 23:30Speaker 20: whether it was okay or not for her to defend
- 23:31Speaker 20: herself in that situation, and and how we should act
- 23:34Speaker 20: in certain rooms.
- 23:35Speaker 1: And sounds stupid.
- 23:36Speaker 4: You put your hand on a woman and the woman's
- 23:38Speaker 4: gonna say, no, I don't put your hand on it.
- 23:39Speaker 4: She They're just lucky that she didn't have a date
- 23:41Speaker 4: that night. One of the big broadly doings that she
- 23:43Speaker 4: used to be able to do that that security god
- 23:45Speaker 4: all over the place.
- 23:46Speaker 5: She didn't have security. I'm sure she had somebody there
- 23:49Speaker 5: with its handling her own. It wasn't that serious.
- 23:52Speaker 1: She had security not inside.
- 23:55Speaker 6: It was just in our minds.
- 23:57Speaker 5: If it was that series of a situation, trust me,
- 23:58Speaker 5: miss NICKI would have been right there. Yeah, okay, but
- 24:02Speaker 5: you know, it is incredible to me that someone can
- 24:04Speaker 5: be having the best season of their life and people
- 24:08Speaker 5: will find a way to reduce it to the most
- 24:10Speaker 5: low vibrational nothing. It's like, out of all the things
- 24:13Speaker 5: that happened this season for Tianna Taylor, this is what we're.
- 24:16Speaker 1: Talking about the full year, Like like, like, come on,
- 24:20Speaker 1: I am so happy for Tianna. I'm so happy.
- 24:22Speaker 5: You know that God has guided her all these years,
- 24:24Speaker 5: and God has showed us his timing is always perfect,
- 24:28Speaker 5: never early, never late. It just takes patience and a
- 24:31Speaker 5: lot of faith. For God has put Tiana right where
- 24:33Speaker 5: she needs to be. And I love seeing her on
- 24:35Speaker 5: that stage, you know, holding that oscar, and I can't
- 24:37Speaker 5: wait to see her holding her own oscar as well.
- 24:41Speaker 1: That should be the conversation.
- 24:42Speaker 20: Sanna spoke out about the same thing that you're talking about, Charlottage.
- 24:45Speaker 20: She said, the world holds so much misery that miserable hearts.
- 24:48Speaker 20: Forget the face of happiness, because people were like, why
- 24:50Speaker 20: was she so happy? For everybody? Something was wrong because
- 24:53Speaker 20: she was happy. I'm like, are you all crazy?
- 24:54Speaker 1: She's winning?
- 24:55Speaker 17: Yeah.
- 24:55Speaker 20: She says that people grow comfortable being sore losers, so
- 24:58Speaker 20: when they see real sportsmanship. That's her about how excited
- 25:00Speaker 20: she was when Paul Thomas Anderson went on stage.
- 25:03Speaker 6: It unsettles them.
- 25:04Speaker 20: It's like Holy Wood are touching a demon because clapping
- 25:06Speaker 20: for someone else's victory requires something many people never learn.
- 25:09Speaker 20: How to win with grace and pure joy, and how
- 25:11Speaker 20: to lose with grace chin up in dignity.
- 25:13Speaker 6: And she literally spoke that to her daughter.
- 25:15Speaker 7: I remember she was on the red carpet with her
- 25:17Speaker 7: daughter at the last Words that they were and her
- 25:19Speaker 7: daughter was saying, like, Mom, I don't like when other
- 25:21Speaker 7: people lose.
- 25:21Speaker 1: Y'all like them.
- 25:22Speaker 7: My mom wins, but I don't like other people lose.
- 25:24Speaker 7: And Cianna told her, like, we're all winners. Yeah, we
- 25:26Speaker 7: celebrate them even when I don't win.
- 25:28Speaker 5: It's actually disgusting. Folks would rather find fault in everything.
- 25:30Speaker 5: And I said yesterday, you know, if you can't celebrate
- 25:33Speaker 5: somebody else's success, you'll never have any success in your own.
- 25:36Speaker 6: It's all about posture, that's it.
- 25:37Speaker 5: So even with the conversation about the security guy, folks
- 25:40Speaker 5: would rather talk about that than talk about how good
- 25:42Speaker 5: she looked. You talk about the fact that you know
- 25:44Speaker 5: the movie she was in one best picture, Right, that's
- 25:46Speaker 5: a more comfortable conversation to talk about the negativity than
- 25:49Speaker 5: it is to talk about, you know, her positive season
- 25:52Speaker 5: and just said she was happy. Either way, you nigga
- 25:57Speaker 5: will find a way to hate on Ryan Coogland, Michael B.
- 25:59Speaker 1: Jordan's so, lord, I hope not give it a minute.
- 26:03Speaker 1: Give it a minute, they can help it to.
- 26:07Speaker 20: Sanna says she got a lot more coming, a lot
- 26:09Speaker 20: more movies, so we're gonna be clapping for her for
- 26:11Speaker 20: a long time.
- 26:12Speaker 7: And speaking of women winning, Happy birthday to Clarissa drop her.
- 26:19Speaker 13: Man.

- 27:08Speaker 6: Good morning?
- 27:09Speaker 1: You guys?
- 27:09Speaker 9: How y'all doing this forrning.
- 27:12Speaker 1: Morning?
- 27:13Speaker 6: I'm good.
- 27:14Speaker 9: So we start this hour with a new court hearing
- 27:16Speaker 9: happening today tied to a growing controversy involving Elon Musk.
- 27:21Speaker 9: The Department of Government Efficiency, better known as DOGE, so
- 27:25Speaker 9: at the center of it deposition videos that are now
- 27:27Speaker 9: going viral. So DOGE was created to cut federal spending
- 27:31Speaker 9: with promises to slash two trillion dollars from the federal deficit. Well, instead,
- 27:36Speaker 9: those cuts eliminated thousands of jobs across the federal workforce.
- 27:41Speaker 9: It canceled more than one hundred million dollars in grants,
- 27:43Speaker 9: many tied to education, history, and community programs. And so
- 27:47Speaker 9: for the first time, we're hearing under oath how those
- 27:49Speaker 9: government cuts were made, and hearing directly from the people
- 27:53Speaker 9: behind them. So in the deposition footage coming out in
- 27:56Speaker 9: a civil lawsuit, it reveals that staffers they chat GPT
- 28:01Speaker 9: to help identify which grants to cut, and we're also
- 28:04Speaker 9: learning that some of the people involved in making these
- 28:06Speaker 9: cuts had little to no experience working in the government.
- 28:10Speaker 9: Let's listen.
- 28:11Speaker 22: You don't regret that people might have lost important income to.
- 28:17Speaker 1: Support their lives.
- 28:18Speaker 10: Now, I think it was more important to reduce the
- 28:20Speaker 10: federal deficit from two trillion.
- 28:22Speaker 19: Dollars to close to zero because you reduced the federal No,
- 28:25Speaker 19: we didn't.
- 28:26Speaker 22: Do You think it's inappropriate in any way that someone
- 28:29Speaker 22: in their twenties with no experience with grants for federal
- 28:33Speaker 22: government was making personal judgment calls about what grant's be
- 28:37Speaker 22: Council action.
- 28:38Speaker 1: No, I don't think it's inappropriate.
- 28:40Speaker 5: Yeah, So those didn't do a damn thing except ruined
- 28:43Speaker 5: people's lives.
- 28:44Speaker 3: Man.
- 28:44Speaker 5: All the people who lost their jobs last year and
- 28:46Speaker 5: still haven't gotten back on their feet men.
- 28:49Speaker 9: Yeah, and on top of prices going up, and you know,
- 28:53Speaker 9: just the way the world is going with the economic
- 28:55Speaker 9: downturn and things like that, people, thousands of people seem
- 28:58Speaker 9: to have lost their jobs for absolutely no realn Those
- 29:02Speaker 9: moments are now fueling backlash as those videos continue to
- 29:05Speaker 9: spread online. So the Trump administration, they went to court
- 29:08Speaker 9: to get those videos taken down, saying that people in
- 29:11Speaker 9: them were getting death threats. So that young man that
- 29:13Speaker 9: you just heard him and another young man were getting
- 29:16Speaker 9: death threats. A judge agreed to take those videos down.
- 29:20Speaker 9: But now that decision is being challenged, and so that's
- 29:22Speaker 9: what's happening at the hearing today. The groups behind that
- 29:25Speaker 9: lawsuit they want the videos put back online, saying taking
- 29:28Speaker 9: them down violates free speech. So yeah, we'll see what
- 29:31Speaker 9: happens with that later today. And we're learning new details
- 29:34Speaker 9: this morning about an officer involved shooting in Dallas, now
- 29:38Speaker 9: raising serious concerns about security tie to a Congresswoman, Jasmine Crockett.
- 29:43Speaker 9: So if please say the man shot and killed had
- 29:45Speaker 9: been working as part of Crockett's security detail. Investigators have
- 29:49Speaker 9: identified him as thirty nine year old Diamond Robinson, who
- 29:54Speaker 9: they say he was using the alias Mike King while
- 29:57Speaker 9: working in that role, Crockett confirming in a her team
- 30:01Speaker 9: also knew him by that name. Now here's how the
- 30:03Speaker 9: shooting unfolded. Police say they tracked Robinson to a hospital
- 30:07Speaker 9: parking garage last week, where he barricaded himself inside a vehicle. Now,
- 30:12Speaker 9: after the standoff, officers used tear gas to try and
- 30:15Speaker 9: get him out. They said, when he came out, he
- 30:17Speaker 9: pulled a weapon. Officers open fire and they killed him
- 30:21Speaker 9: at the scene.
- 30:22Speaker 6: Police a.
- 30:22Speaker 9: Robinson had multiple warrants and was operating under a security
- 30:26Speaker 9: company they say now never existed. Let's listen to some
- 30:30Speaker 9: of the press conference that Dallas Police held yesterday.
- 30:33Speaker 3: Yeah, so the agencies he reported to work for do
- 30:36Speaker 3: not exist, basically Special Dignitary Police and so those that
- 30:40Speaker 3: agency does not exist within the federal government.
- 30:42Speaker 1: So that's who he portrayed to be.
- 30:44Speaker 3: He was, He's very good at hiding his true identity,
- 30:47Speaker 3: and through great police work from the Intelligence Union and
- 30:50Speaker 3: the Irving Police Department, we were, through technology, able to
- 30:54Speaker 3: determine who his real identity was. But he had been
- 30:57Speaker 3: living this for many years. Executed a search bar warnt
- 31:02Speaker 3: on mister Robinson's apartment that afternoon and recovered additional badges
- 31:10Speaker 3: and additional firearms.
- 31:12Speaker 1: Wow. Yeah, what got them hip to what was going on?
- 31:15Speaker 15: Like?
- 31:15Speaker 1: How did they even get a clue of what was happening?
- 31:18Speaker 9: And that's the that's the question that they were asking
- 31:20Speaker 9: at the press conference.
- 31:21Speaker 6: And so the police they were kind of vague, but what.
- 31:23Speaker 9: I picked up was he had did another job with
- 31:26Speaker 9: another officer who had noticed maybe a stolen vehicle, and
- 31:30Speaker 9: they started running information on that vehicle and it was
- 31:32Speaker 9: coming back weird, and so they started doing some more investigation.
- 31:35Speaker 9: They said they're going to do another press conference, because
- 31:37Speaker 9: I think that is the question, what led to him
- 31:39Speaker 9: being captured in the first place. How did how did
- 31:42Speaker 9: they even find out that this was going on. I
- 31:45Speaker 9: think that's the overall umbrella that people are still wanting
- 31:48Speaker 9: to know. But what makes this story even bigger this
- 31:50Speaker 9: morning is just not the shooting, but the apparent breakdown
- 31:54Speaker 9: in the vetting process. So Crockett says her office they
- 31:57Speaker 9: followed house protocols when hiring him, but also calls it
- 32:01Speaker 9: deeply alarming that someone using an alias was able to
- 32:03Speaker 9: pass through the system and work and role this sensitive.
- 32:06Speaker 1: Absolutely.
- 32:07Speaker 5: Yeah, somebody told me, No, I don't know how true it is,
- 32:09Speaker 5: but they said that he had been under investigation for
- 32:11Speaker 5: a couple of years. And you know, because of what
- 32:13Speaker 5: you just said, too many about the vehicle or something
- 32:17Speaker 5: being stolen from off a military base or something like that.
- 32:20Speaker 4: Yeah, but you're on the investigation but you're still around
- 32:22Speaker 4: me the whole time. They don't tell me who he's
- 32:24Speaker 4: supposed to quote unquote protecting.
- 32:26Speaker 5: But also he was clearly really good, because if you're
- 32:29Speaker 5: able to circumvent the vetting processes, you know, for something
- 32:32Speaker 5: sensitive is from security for members of Congress, you must
- 32:36Speaker 5: be really really good.
- 32:38Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 32:38Speaker 9: Yeah, there's a lot of questions surrounding how he was
- 32:41Speaker 9: able to not only full Congress, full you know, full
- 32:44Speaker 9: police departments, make up fake agencies. He was training police officers.
- 32:48Speaker 9: There was a lot happening here that no one ever caught.
- 32:51Speaker 9: So they are they are investigating that this morning. And finally,
- 32:56Speaker 9: if you've ever delivered for Walmart, Walmart, you could have
- 33:00Speaker 9: the money headed your way. So the company is now
- 33:01Speaker 9: paying one hundred million dollars to settle claims that it
- 33:04Speaker 9: misled drivers about how much they would earn, including tips.
- 33:08Speaker 9: So about seventy nine million dollars of that is going
- 33:10Speaker 9: back to drivers who worked for a Walmart's Spark app,
- 33:14Speaker 9: their delivery app. So a regulator say some drivers they
- 33:17Speaker 9: were promised one amount but ended up making less, especially
- 33:20Speaker 9: when those orders were split or they were changed. The
- 33:22Speaker 9: Walmart says it's already started sending out those payments. If
- 33:26Speaker 9: you think you're eligible, you haven't received a payment. They
- 33:29Speaker 9: said to check your Spark delivery app, your email, or
- 33:32Speaker 9: you can contact support to see if there's any money
- 33:34Speaker 9: waiting for you. I know we could all use some
- 33:36Speaker 9: extra money this morning.
- 33:38Speaker 7: How many drivers was it? What if it was seventy
- 33:40Speaker 7: nine million drivers, well.
- 33:42Speaker 6: They would each get a dollar.
- 33:43Speaker 9: I'm not really sure.
- 33:45Speaker 1: It was a lot of problem.
- 33:46Speaker 6: I'm sure it was.
- 33:49Speaker 1: I know, I'm Chris probably did he didn't. You don't know,
- 33:55Speaker 1: you know what might be.
- 33:59Speaker 9: It's money and it's that that people are old. So
- 34:02Speaker 9: check and see if this applies to you. Any Any
- 34:05Speaker 9: money right now is good, you know, if you earned it.
- 34:08Speaker 9: So anyway, that is your front page news. Guys, I'm

- 35:27Speaker 23: Uh you know, a great great songs, something for the ladies.
- 35:30Speaker 23: Of course, you know what I'm saying. I think a
- 35:32Speaker 23: lot of that is lost sometimes just the mayor compliment
- 35:35Speaker 23: And I was like, man, you just you're looking you're
- 35:38Speaker 23: looking lovely today. Yeah, it just having that vibe and
- 35:41Speaker 23: uh it's a song I wrote, you know I ran
- 35:45Speaker 23: into uh, Robin on.
- 35:47Speaker 1: What was uh we did a show Togain.
- 35:49Speaker 23: Yeah, it wasn't uh. I think it was one of
- 35:51Speaker 23: the f ones we did. So Man Houston and me
- 35:56Speaker 23: and him, Cliff, all of us we want to end
- 35:57Speaker 23: up hanging out one night and it was just.
- 35:59Speaker 1: Just we just to kick it off.
- 36:00Speaker 23: And once this record came up, I was like, wow,
- 36:03Speaker 23: this sounds like Robin. I sent it to him and
- 36:05Speaker 23: he was It's like, yo, this is this is lovely.
- 36:10Speaker 10: Well.
- 36:10Speaker 13: You know, I'm a huge Bill Withers fan, of course
- 36:12Speaker 13: on the Soul Head, so all my inspirations are Otis
- 36:15Speaker 13: and Bill and Al Green and guys like that. So
- 36:17Speaker 13: when he sent me the record and he had his
- 36:19Speaker 13: voice on it, I'm a huge Shaggy fan.
- 36:20Speaker 1: I was like, you know.
- 36:21Speaker 13: What, there's something here with the throwback soul record, but
- 36:25Speaker 13: with the Caribbean influence and if I put some little
- 36:28Speaker 13: soul man stuff on it, put that white soul on it.
- 36:30Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, we're really happy with it.
- 36:33Speaker 5: I can't whenever I hear Bill with a Lovely Day,
- 36:35Speaker 5: I think could the late great Clarence Clarence's Yeah, And
- 36:39Speaker 5: I know he Clars made a lot to you a.
- 36:41Speaker 1: Lot, big time.
- 36:42Speaker 23: I mean, even you know when when I show actually
- 36:46Speaker 23: showed that documentary of Black Godfather to a lot of
- 36:49Speaker 23: people coming up. You know, I do this thing in
- 36:51Speaker 23: Jamaica called the Al of Music Conference, which is this
- 36:53Speaker 23: my third year doing it. I just did it, and
- 36:56Speaker 23: I bring a lot of people down from the business
- 36:58Speaker 23: just just to get a lot of the inner city
- 37:01Speaker 23: utes out of Jamaica and reggae artists because so many
- 37:04Speaker 23: of our artists, their intellectual properties are owned by other people.
- 37:07Speaker 23: It throughout the whole thing. So we try to get
- 37:10Speaker 23: him on the right track and just like kind of
- 37:11Speaker 23: make it go. And that's one of them things I say, Yo,
- 37:14Speaker 23: y'all gotta watch this, you know what I mean, because
- 37:16Speaker 23: Clarence was instrumental in a lot of people that y'all
- 37:19Speaker 23: didn't really know, you know what I mean.
- 37:21Speaker 1: So yeah, and you know you build with this. You know.
- 37:24Speaker 23: The thing with Bill is he didn't really put out
- 37:25Speaker 23: a huge catalog. It wasn't really massive, but those songs
- 37:30Speaker 23: are probably some of the most recurrent songs through decades.
- 37:34Speaker 13: Well, he's one of the greatest poets we've ever read music.
- 37:36Speaker 13: I mean, I remember if you got to see his
- 37:39Speaker 13: documentary I Am Bill or.
- 37:41Speaker 1: Something like that.
- 37:43Speaker 13: And even when he speaks, he doesn't talk much, but
- 37:45Speaker 13: every time he speaks there's poetry in it. There's so
- 37:48Speaker 13: much meaning and value to his words that he doesn't waste.
- 37:51Speaker 13: He doesn't waste words, you know, and that that was
- 37:53Speaker 13: something that I really appreciated about him.
- 37:55Speaker 1: And it's a lot of people's favorite too.
- 37:57Speaker 23: I mean, he's actually sing one of Sing's favorite artists
- 37:59Speaker 23: and him and I we'd be on Stay Teget, we'd
- 38:01Speaker 23: be doing songs like with him.
- 38:04Speaker 19: Yeah.
- 38:05Speaker 13: Wow, because the lyrics musically and lyrically, he's just one
- 38:08Speaker 13: of the best.
- 38:10Speaker 6: What genre would look and lovely fall under?
- 38:12Speaker 1: Then well, you know what it is. I think I
- 38:15Speaker 1: was just discussing.
- 38:17Speaker 13: We think it's like grown, you know, it's grown and sexy.
- 38:20Speaker 13: But it's got the Cribbean influence and most of my
- 38:22Speaker 13: records playing on urban AC, so I think there's a
- 38:25Speaker 13: home for it there. But there's also you know, with
- 38:27Speaker 13: his big pop, you know, massive records. When he crosses over,
- 38:31Speaker 13: it plays everywhere, and when I hear it, I feel
- 38:33Speaker 13: like I'm on vacation with the Pina Coladas, you know
- 38:35Speaker 13: what I mean.
- 38:37Speaker 1: It just gives me that and especially.
- 38:38Speaker 13: Everything right now, like anytime we can just have a
- 38:40Speaker 13: it's just meant to make you feel good.
- 38:42Speaker 1: We're not trying to it is to reinvent the wheel here,
- 38:44Speaker 1: We're just trying to make you feel It does a
- 38:45Speaker 1: feel good record.
- 38:46Speaker 23: But in my history of doing records, you know, when
- 38:49Speaker 23: you're reged, there's you know, my hearts got one eight
- 38:52Speaker 23: hundred station, how many of them a REGA station?
- 38:55Speaker 1: Zero? So how did a guy like.
- 38:57Speaker 23: Me get on on radio with that many hits and
- 39:00Speaker 23: sold that many records over the years Now? Is really
- 39:02Speaker 23: because I put these records that once something happened and
- 39:06Speaker 23: it becomes huge, it kind of crosses all formats because
- 39:10Speaker 23: nobody really know where to put me.
- 39:12Speaker 1: That's kind of a it's like, well, he's reggae's poppy.
- 39:15Speaker 13: When that first came out, and they didn't they wouldn't
- 39:17Speaker 13: play me at pop rated, so they said, let's try
- 39:19Speaker 13: them an urban ac, Let's try the grown black radio.
- 39:22Speaker 13: And that's where I broke was Yeah and DC on
- 39:25Speaker 13: on urban ac radio lost without You Broke, and that's
- 39:28Speaker 13: that's where I've played most of my careers, on adult
- 39:31Speaker 13: black radio.
- 39:32Speaker 1: That's that sucks.
- 39:32Speaker 5: Du though, because when you think of a song called
- 39:34Speaker 5: Lost without You, we used to have the quiet storm. Yeah,
- 39:40Speaker 5: that used to matter, you know what I mean.
- 39:42Speaker 1: And and throughout the day now you hear R and
- 39:44Speaker 1: B like lost without You.
- 39:47Speaker 6: Hell yeah.
- 39:48Speaker 1: But it like you're trying to make another one.
- 39:52Speaker 23: But to the point of it, you know, when a
- 39:54Speaker 23: record is big, it crosses all formats. I mean, a
- 39:57Speaker 23: big record that wasn't me when we drop that record,
- 40:00Speaker 23: you know, that ended up going on everything down the line.
- 40:02Speaker 23: But when it started on mixed shows and some that's all,
- 40:06Speaker 23: and then ended up just becoming and a guy in
- 40:08Speaker 23: Hawaii played in and it just became this mass wive.
- 40:11Speaker 1: What I hate y'all talk about music. May y'all sound
- 40:12Speaker 1: like scientists. It is calculated.
- 40:15Speaker 5: Yeah, for me, I don't feel like people have that
- 40:17Speaker 5: type of passion no more.
- 40:18Speaker 17: Man.
- 40:19Speaker 1: You well, you know what I think.
- 40:21Speaker 23: We're living in a time that's a fast time. Everything
- 40:24Speaker 23: is done like real quick, you know what I mean.
- 40:26Speaker 23: When you when you look at and there's all this
- 40:27Speaker 23: equipment to help.
- 40:28Speaker 1: Them, you know what I mean.
- 40:29Speaker 13: Well, I think there's always every generation we have that
- 40:32Speaker 13: it ain't as good as the last. You know, the
- 40:34Speaker 13: grown heads are always saying that, and the young heads
- 40:36Speaker 13: are saying it's better than it was. But there's always
- 40:38Speaker 13: great artistry mixed in the fluff. You know, there's always
- 40:42Speaker 13: like you look at Olivia Dean, I mean that's you know,
- 40:44Speaker 13: there's there's They're these artists that are still making something
- 40:47Speaker 13: brand new from their hearts and their experiences, and that
- 40:50Speaker 13: stuff lasts the test of time otherwise, you know, some
- 40:53Speaker 13: of it is just supposed to make you feel good
- 40:55Speaker 13: and make you dance and make you have a good time,
- 40:57Speaker 13: you know, and those things come and go. But the
- 40:59Speaker 13: real artists that are coming from their heart and have
- 41:01Speaker 13: something to say, there's there's always a.
- 41:03Speaker 23: The love ones with the love you got, that love
- 41:05Speaker 23: for it, you'll find that really be obsessed.
- 41:08Speaker 1: When I think about AI too of.
- 41:09Speaker 23: People are talking about AIM like, I think it's actually
- 41:12Speaker 23: going to be good in a way because it's going
- 41:13Speaker 23: to really let the cream rise.
- 41:15Speaker 1: To the top because you can't replicate that soul. Yeah
- 41:18Speaker 1: you know what I mean.
- 41:19Speaker 23: Yeah, So, so the mediocrity that people just go do
- 41:22Speaker 23: that quick thing, they're gonna have problems.
- 41:24Speaker 1: And there's something karmically to just give things steps.
- 41:27Speaker 13: You know, if you six steps and you try to
- 41:29Speaker 13: you know, you try to get rich quick schemes and
- 41:30Speaker 13: those kind of things.
- 41:31Speaker 1: You can get that.
- 41:32Speaker 13: First push, but to last, you really have to have
- 41:35Speaker 13: a craft and an obsession and the love for the
- 41:37Speaker 13: game and the music to make it last.
- 41:39Speaker 5: And then when I heard you about Bill Withers Robin,
- 41:41Speaker 5: you said he was a poet and you talked about
- 41:43Speaker 5: his lyrics. I feel like nowadays people just want to
- 41:47Speaker 5: get to beat, make a melody, don't even care what
- 41:49Speaker 5: the hell he's saying on the record.
- 41:50Speaker 1: Yeah, as long as it feels good. But you know,
- 41:53Speaker 1: some people do have something to say. They still have
- 41:55Speaker 1: something to say.
- 41:56Speaker 23: I think relatability is also when I write my records,
- 41:58Speaker 23: I try to be as relatable as possible, you know
- 42:00Speaker 23: what I'm saying. The thing when you think about listen
- 42:02Speaker 23: to Grandma Hands, that's that's that's your life if you yeah, everybody,
- 42:07Speaker 23: Grandma's hands, that's every word that he was saying that.
- 42:11Speaker 23: I'm raised by my grandmother. So that record speaks to me,
- 42:14Speaker 23: you know what I mean. So it's really writing songs.
- 42:17Speaker 23: I'm gonna throw a furzy and a little bit off,
- 42:20Speaker 23: but you know it wasn't me. It's out of your banging.
- 42:22Speaker 23: You know, somebody banging and you wish your banging. I'm
- 42:24Speaker 23: just saying it very relatable. It's very relatable.
- 42:32Speaker 1: Boss. Uh crazy all.
- 42:35Speaker 13: Right, oh yeah yeah, uh. You know, for me, I've
- 42:42Speaker 13: been working on my new album for five you last
- 42:44Speaker 13: time I dropped was twenty twenty one, and uh and
- 42:47Speaker 13: and for me, it has to mean something to me
- 42:50Speaker 13: for me to release it, you know. So I've gone
- 42:52Speaker 13: through some and when you write, you know, you write
- 42:53Speaker 13: forty fifty songs, and some of them you're going through
- 42:55Speaker 13: the dance floor something. But then by the time you
- 42:57Speaker 13: get to the end of the project, you realize what
- 42:59Speaker 13: mattered and what.
- 43:00Speaker 1: Means something to you.
- 43:01Speaker 13: So I have an almost finished album that I'm trying
- 43:04Speaker 13: to drop this year. And for me right now, you know,
- 43:06Speaker 13: my kids inspire me. And I came from a divorced
- 43:10Speaker 13: family when I was seven years old, and so right now,
- 43:12Speaker 13: what's most important to me is not repeating the cycle
- 43:14Speaker 13: of broken home, you know what I mean.
- 43:16Speaker 1: So everything on my album.
- 43:18Speaker 13: Is about the effort to keep a family together and
- 43:23Speaker 13: not repeat those cycles we come from.
- 43:27Speaker 5: I always here comedians say that you know, they in
- 43:29Speaker 5: between stand ups.
- 43:31Speaker 1: They have to live life.
- 43:32Speaker 5: Yeah, Like they can't just go out there and go
- 43:34Speaker 5: on stage and be funny and just give you material,
- 43:36Speaker 5: Like they have to live life with that the same
- 43:37Speaker 5: for you, Yeah, you got to go.
- 43:38Speaker 13: And I think what I'm learning at this stage in
- 43:40Speaker 13: my life is that the hardest things I've had to
- 43:43Speaker 13: face have made me a better man and a stronger
- 43:45Speaker 13: man and a better friend. The hardest things, the most
- 43:48Speaker 13: difficult challenges, have made me stronger and better. So now
- 43:51Speaker 13: I embrace those challenges. I think that's what happens with age,
- 43:53Speaker 13: is that you don't take failure so seriously. Failure is
- 43:58Speaker 13: just part of the grind part of life, you know,
- 44:01Speaker 13: as opposed to when you're young and something goes wrong,
- 44:02Speaker 13: you're like, that's the end of my career, that's the
- 44:04Speaker 13: end of my life. Now I've been through so many
- 44:06Speaker 13: ups and downs, I can just enjoy this, Like I
- 44:09Speaker 13: just wake up and go, thank you God, thank you
- 44:11Speaker 13: God for this. Do you fight and I have a
- 44:13Speaker 13: good time?
- 44:13Speaker 1: Do you find it? Do you find it's more fun older, Well,
- 44:17Speaker 1: it's more fun.
- 44:19Speaker 13: Being grateful? Well, I think I'm having gratitude makes everything
- 44:24Speaker 13: more fun. I'm coming in here and I'm like, they're
- 44:26Speaker 13: not gonna get me, they're not gonna like me, they're
- 44:28Speaker 13: not gonna treat me right.
- 44:29Speaker 1: Bu bu. By then you've already missing the whole point.
- 44:31Speaker 1: You're already coming up with it with you. You must.
- 44:34Speaker 5: I feel like when you're in your twenties and even
- 44:36Speaker 5: in your thirties, I don't know if I appreciated the
- 44:39Speaker 5: moment like I go so fast. Yeah, I feel like
- 44:43Speaker 5: at forty seven, I appreciate the moment of life.
- 44:46Speaker 23: I'm I'm soaking it up in this age and I'm
- 44:49Speaker 23: just like, wow, you know it's been a right and
- 44:51Speaker 23: gratitude is a big part of it.
- 44:53Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 44:53Speaker 13: Well, I realized that if you feel, if you have
- 44:57Speaker 13: gratitude in your heart, then you can't really feel anything else.
- 44:59Speaker 13: At this same time, you can't be selfish, you can't
- 45:02Speaker 13: be you know, negative, if you're If you're in a
- 45:04Speaker 13: state of gratitude, then nothing's wrong really because you're grateful
- 45:08Speaker 13: for what God has given you.
- 45:10Speaker 5: How does it reflect where you are musically now versus
- 45:13Speaker 5: like the Robin think we heard a decade.
- 45:15Speaker 13: Well it's still it's you know, I'm always trying to
- 45:17Speaker 13: make black music, you know what I mean. I'm trying
- 45:18Speaker 13: to make soul music. I'm trying to. I mean, that's
- 45:20Speaker 13: what I grew up on. That's who I love, and
- 45:22Speaker 13: those are my favorite singers. So I'm always trying to
- 45:25Speaker 13: be a part of that culture, so you know, And
- 45:27Speaker 13: and I like making love songs. I mean, in the end,
- 45:29Speaker 13: it's it's they're almost all geared towards making love work
- 45:33Speaker 13: and making love last.
- 45:34Speaker 5: Now do you hear how Robin Think answered that? Robin
- 45:36Speaker 5: Think said, I'm always trying to make black music. She said,
- 45:40Speaker 5: He's I forgot how he said. But you said, you're
- 45:42Speaker 5: part of a culture.
- 45:43Speaker 1: I want to be.
- 45:44Speaker 13: Yeah, you know, I mean, and I think that's why
- 45:46Speaker 13: I have some barbecue status.
- 45:49Speaker 1: Because I don't. I don't. I still have never.
- 45:52Speaker 13: I did one song where I chased pop music, and
- 45:55Speaker 13: I don't perform it live, you.
- 45:57Speaker 1: Know what I mean, because it's just not who I
- 46:00Speaker 1: who I am.
- 46:00Speaker 5: I bought it up because you know, Jack Hallow, he
- 46:02Speaker 5: just put out like a he's calling it a neo
- 46:04Speaker 5: soul yeah, R and B album, And he did an
- 46:07Speaker 5: interview and he said that the music made him blacker
- 46:10Speaker 5: or something like that, like, like, what are your thoughts
- 46:12Speaker 5: on the situations as a white person who's been accepted
- 46:15Speaker 5: in the space.
- 46:15Speaker 1: For so long.
- 46:16Speaker 13: Well, for me, I think that's just you know, it
- 46:18Speaker 13: all starts from inspiration.
- 46:20Speaker 1: You know.
- 46:21Speaker 13: I grew up in the Eddie Murphy, Michael Jackson, Prince Whitney, Houston.
- 46:25Speaker 1: Eighties, you know what I mean.
- 46:26Speaker 13: So to me that that was the pinnacle of art
- 46:29Speaker 13: and greatness and Michael Jordan.
- 46:31Speaker 1: I mean all that. So those are the people I
- 46:32Speaker 1: had on my wall, you know.
- 46:34Speaker 13: And so I've always, honestly and from the bottom of
- 46:37Speaker 13: my heart wanted to be a part of and be
- 46:40Speaker 13: accepted into that world and culture because I respect and
- 46:43Speaker 13: admire and love it so much.
- 46:44Speaker 5: And I also think that what helps you with the
- 46:46Speaker 5: music was good, Yes, so disrespect the.
- 46:49Speaker 1: Jack So the music ain't that good?
- 46:50Speaker 5: Like the music has to be good, especially if you
- 46:53Speaker 5: are of another race doing that music.
- 46:55Speaker 1: They got to hear it and be like, oh that's
- 46:56Speaker 1: a bot.
- 46:57Speaker 13: Yeah, you know, you know, you can't you can't, you
- 47:00Speaker 13: know what I mean, You got to you gotta come
- 47:02Speaker 13: come real. But I think what he's doing is I
- 47:04Speaker 13: think it still shows love for the game, it still
- 47:06Speaker 13: shows love for the culture, and then everybody else it's
- 47:08Speaker 13: all perspective after that you.
- 47:10Speaker 5: Know, Robin, did all the controversy around blurred lines impact
- 47:13Speaker 5: you creatively in any way?
- 47:16Speaker 1: Again, I'm sure it does.
- 47:17Speaker 13: It's whether it's subliminal or you know, or overt.
- 47:21Speaker 1: But I think in the end, I don't really.
- 47:24Speaker 13: I always have to have enough faith in myself that
- 47:27Speaker 13: another great song is coming, the next great song is coming.
- 47:30Speaker 1: Just keep feeling, keep sharing.
- 47:31Speaker 13: Luckily, you know, I can sing, so sometimes, like with
- 47:35Speaker 13: this record, I really didn't add that much writing. He
- 47:37Speaker 13: sent me the record. I was like, man, this sounds
- 47:39Speaker 13: this sounds great. I would love, you know, let me
- 47:40Speaker 13: just sing this and see how I sound on it.
- 47:43Speaker 13: And you know, like I said, we're not reinventing the
- 47:45Speaker 13: wheel with this one, but with but I do I do.
- 47:48Speaker 13: Just keep telling myself, today could be the day you
- 47:51Speaker 13: write another loss without you. Today could be the day
- 47:53Speaker 13: you write another sweetest love or whatever, one of your best.
- 47:56Speaker 13: And so you just keep hitting the piano and keep
- 47:58Speaker 13: hitting it, you know, and then sooner or later something
- 48:00Speaker 13: will come.
- 48:00Speaker 1: Up and you got that kind of catalog. I mean,
- 48:03Speaker 1: you can eat forever.
- 48:05Speaker 19: Yeah.
- 48:05Speaker 23: Yeah, maybe it's all performance, but it's the love cagy.
- 48:09Speaker 23: So he just told me about in the damn dressing
- 48:11Speaker 23: room all in Rechtords. He used to write before he
- 48:13Speaker 23: blew up. Well, yeah, a lot of people don't know that.
- 48:17Speaker 23: I started at sixteen as a writer. So so I
- 48:20Speaker 23: wrote for Brandy, Christina Aguilera, Rabbit, Pink, Mark Anthony, Michael
- 48:25Speaker 23: Jackson Confessions. I knew that was all before I released
- 48:30Speaker 23: my own music.
- 48:31Speaker 1: Yeah, so I started very early. Yeah, I heard that
- 48:34Speaker 1: I got really lucky.
- 48:35Speaker 13: I never wrote the hit song, but I was on
- 48:37Speaker 13: their biggest albums. I was on Mark Anthony's biggest album.
- 48:39Speaker 13: I was on Christina such A, Pink's biggest album.
- 48:43Speaker 1: Brandy's biggest album. So I got really lucky early on.
- 48:45Speaker 23: So you know who buy lunch today.
- 48:49Speaker 6: That's one of my favorite artists. That's what's up Robin.
- 48:51Speaker 1: I'm telling you right now.
- 48:52Speaker 6: The evolution of Robin think a sex therapy.
- 48:55Speaker 1: No skip albums, thank you. The new one. That's what
- 48:58Speaker 1: I'm working on the new one. I'm making sure there's
- 48:59Speaker 1: no gips. Yeah, that's why, that's why you take long
- 49:02Speaker 1: to do them. That's why you got to masure. I
- 49:04Speaker 1: said you wrote on color Me Bags. I did. I
- 49:06Speaker 1: wrote Color Me Bags.
- 49:07Speaker 13: They were there when they came out with their new
- 49:10Speaker 13: album and we had the first singles called sexual something Sexual.
- 49:16Speaker 1: He kind of kind of I was working with them.
- 49:18Speaker 1: I was sixteen, was the least thing of that group.
- 49:20Speaker 1: I forgot to forget their names.
- 49:22Speaker 5: Yeah, but he he kind of walked so you could
- 49:24Speaker 5: run because he was like the first white guy we
- 49:26Speaker 5: saw that had.
- 49:26Speaker 13: Because that was a real because that was a New
- 49:28Speaker 13: Jack City soundtrack, that was not just a white group
- 49:32Speaker 13: making a blacking They want a black film that you know,
- 49:35Speaker 13: and Andre herrel my mentor produced produced U that movie's
- 49:40Speaker 13: New Jack City.
- 49:41Speaker 1: So so that was, Yeah.
- 49:43Speaker 5: It's a hard putting out music when somebody like Andre
- 49:46Speaker 5: isn't here, because I know, you run a lot.
- 49:47Speaker 1: Of stuff by him.
- 49:48Speaker 13: Yeah, that was He was my lifetime creative partner. And
- 49:51Speaker 13: not just that, but I realized that a lot of
- 49:53Speaker 13: the people I thought were my friends were just his friends.
- 50:02Speaker 1: Andre, pat you don't want to come to my birthday party?
- 50:08Speaker 1: But no.
- 50:09Speaker 13: I realized that everybody loved Andre. People like me, but
- 50:12Speaker 13: everybody loved Andre because he was so helpful and informative
- 50:16Speaker 13: and inspiring. And every time he saw somebody, he would
- 50:18Speaker 13: tell you something that would help your life and career.
- 50:20Speaker 1: He would just give away free knowledge.
- 50:22Speaker 13: Everybody's a hustler, especially out here in New York, and
- 50:24Speaker 13: then I could give you any advice for free and
- 50:27Speaker 13: help your career without getting something from it. He just
- 50:29Speaker 13: gave away knowledge. Everywhere he went. He helped people. And
- 50:33Speaker 13: so for me, if I want to get naws on
- 50:35Speaker 13: my new record, h Dre where you at, I need
- 50:38Speaker 13: you to call knowledge for me.
- 50:39Speaker 1: You know what I mean? He had everybody.
- 50:42Speaker 13: So I do miss not just the knowledge he would
- 50:46Speaker 13: give me while I'm making the records, like you need
- 50:48Speaker 13: some horns on this, and need some horns, you know,
- 50:49Speaker 13: just those little things he would tell me that would
- 50:51Speaker 13: help me take my records from one notch to the next.
- 50:54Speaker 13: But really his friendship and his guidance and his connections
- 50:57Speaker 13: and everything I missed.
- 50:58Speaker 1: He was like my second father.
- 51:00Speaker 13: He taught me how to walk and talk like I
- 51:02Speaker 13: remember when I first started performing, he went up on
- 51:04Speaker 13: the stage ground. But you need to do this and
- 51:06Speaker 13: come over here, walk over here and do a shame
- 51:07Speaker 13: you can do like he taught me how to dress
- 51:09Speaker 13: the guy talk.
- 51:11Speaker 1: I'm telling you me. We met a guy named Pete Farman.
- 51:14Speaker 13: He was coming to LA to start a new label
- 51:16Speaker 13: with Babyface called New America and he had a young
- 51:22Speaker 13: singer who was more like a like a dancer who
- 51:24Speaker 13: could sing, you know, from down in Orlando. And he
- 51:27Speaker 13: came to listen to records for that guy, and I
- 51:29Speaker 13: played him a couple of songs and I sang live
- 51:31Speaker 13: and he was like, wait.
- 51:32Speaker 1: A second, are you making an album?
- 51:34Speaker 13: So from that moment, we just started working on my
- 51:37Speaker 13: album and he became my best friend.
- 51:39Speaker 5: From that moment on Wow, hey, y'all call man all
- 51:43Speaker 5: the people that was ignoring Robin after Andre, you do
- 51:47Speaker 5: have the kind of name you got to delete out
- 51:49Speaker 5: of a phone, Robin, because if you forget.
- 51:50Speaker 1: That E and your girl, Robin, that's funny. I do
- 52:04Speaker 1: want to know before we get out here, why are
- 52:06Speaker 1: you scared? What are you scared?
- 52:08Speaker 13: Well, you know, I think it's just a natural feeling
- 52:12Speaker 13: of of when you've had ups and downs and you
- 52:15Speaker 13: and you wonder how people.
- 52:16Speaker 1: Are going to respond, and you just want to get
- 52:18Speaker 1: it right. You want to connect again.
- 52:19Speaker 13: You know that that that time when the evolution was
- 52:21Speaker 13: out and what I was saying was connecting and it
- 52:23Speaker 13: was helping people with the toughest times in their lives
- 52:26Speaker 13: and their relationships That's why I wrote it because it
- 52:28Speaker 13: helped me with it my toughest times. So you want
- 52:31Speaker 13: that connection to happen again. And if the first single
- 52:33Speaker 13: doesn't hit, they stop spending money, and then bl blah blah,
- 52:36Speaker 13: and then the record and the other songs that have
- 52:38Speaker 13: a lot of you know, truth and importance to you,
- 52:42Speaker 13: they don't get heard, you know, So so I just
- 52:44Speaker 13: want to get it right. And this at least is
- 52:46Speaker 13: like it's just a nice quest, you know, it's just
- 52:48Speaker 13: a swing out to the fences to go, hey, we're
- 52:50Speaker 13: out here, we're making music, we're feeling good, we're having
- 52:53Speaker 13: a good time.
- 52:53Speaker 1: And then I can follow this with my own stuff.
- 52:55Speaker 7: And I think it is the impact right what successful
- 52:58Speaker 7: you would be because even going back to the evolution
- 53:01Speaker 7: of Robin think my parents were going through a little
- 53:04Speaker 7: crazy time in their marriage and that album on constant repeat,
- 53:09Speaker 7: no skip with you know what I'm saying, that's how
- 53:11Speaker 7: I listened to him. And then you had sex, came
- 53:14Speaker 7: back up, followed up with sex therapy, and I think
- 53:17Speaker 7: that's where you were and at that point in your
- 53:19Speaker 7: life to make that type of music. So where you're
- 53:21Speaker 7: at now, where you say you're holding on to the
- 53:23Speaker 7: album because you know you're scared and everything. I think
- 53:26Speaker 7: who you are, just your authentic self, like a lot
- 53:29Speaker 7: of people are going through what you're what you're speaking
- 53:32Speaker 7: to this album?
- 53:33Speaker 1: Yeah, so just drop that. No I am, it's it's ready.
- 53:36Speaker 13: I think this was, but you know how God works
- 53:38Speaker 13: in mysterious ways. I had a hiccup with a distribution company.
- 53:42Speaker 13: So I was working on a new distribution company and
- 53:44Speaker 13: I was wondering, I'm like, why is it taking so
- 53:46Speaker 13: long while I feel like I'm sitting still, And then
- 53:48Speaker 13: this happened, and now this might be exactly what God
- 53:51Speaker 13: was having me wait for. Because now I've got I've
- 53:53Speaker 13: got Shaggy, I can ride his coat tails for a minute,
- 53:56Speaker 13: you know what I mean, Get out here, do some interviews,
- 53:58Speaker 13: get the new record out, and then I can feel
- 54:00Speaker 13: that confidence building to go, Okay, now I'm coming back
- 54:03Speaker 13: with my own stuff.
- 54:04Speaker 17: You know.
- 54:04Speaker 1: So I think it all helps.
- 54:05Speaker 13: You know, everything, one success begets another success and confidence
- 54:10Speaker 13: in momentum.
- 54:10Speaker 1: All all that is. You know, how did you know
- 54:13Speaker 1: when you wanted to get married again?
- 54:15Speaker 13: Well, you know, we had a lot of love very
- 54:18Speaker 13: early and we wanted to start a family early. So
- 54:20Speaker 13: we had three kids in three years, and so it
- 54:25Speaker 13: was more Yeah we were net flinck and no chill,
- 54:39Speaker 13: but yeah, I think that, I mean we were together.
- 54:41Speaker 13: So it wasn't really about the marriage as much as
- 54:43Speaker 13: we wanted to start a family. And then once we
- 54:45Speaker 13: had the three kids, I wanted to wait until the
- 54:47Speaker 13: kids were old enough to see us get married because
- 54:50Speaker 13: if they got married, if we get married when they're
- 54:52Speaker 13: one years old, they don't have any recollection of memory.
- 54:55Speaker 13: But at least they were six and seven years old,
- 54:57Speaker 13: so the girls got to walk the aisle and you
- 54:59Speaker 13: know and all that.
- 55:00Speaker 1: So now it's a real memory for the whole family
- 55:02Speaker 1: that close behind each you get no sleep. It was
- 55:05Speaker 1: that age behind you.
- 55:08Speaker 13: It's crazy, but you gotta love it. And for me,
- 55:10Speaker 13: like I said, like, this is the time of my
- 55:12Speaker 13: life where this is what gives me day.
- 55:16Speaker 17: Joy.
- 55:16Speaker 13: It makes me want to be a better man and
- 55:18Speaker 13: do the right thing every day. So it's it's the
- 55:20Speaker 13: right time for the right reason.
- 55:21Speaker 5: And I heard you mentioned earlier that you know your
- 55:24Speaker 5: parents had gotten divorced and you didn't want to recreate that.
- 55:26Speaker 1: So do you feel like, I don't know a failure.
- 55:29Speaker 13: Well, I already did, yeah, because because all it didn't work.
- 55:32Speaker 13: And but our son is thriving and doing great. She's
- 55:34Speaker 13: an incredible mom. I trying to be an incredible dad,
- 55:37Speaker 13: and so now I don't want to do that again,
- 55:39Speaker 13: especially with three kids. And I made and that didn't work,
- 55:42Speaker 13: and so it's just about and you learn, you know,
- 55:44Speaker 13: you learn that there's some things I could have done better,
- 55:46Speaker 13: and some things were just meant to be. Like I
- 55:48Speaker 13: do love my life, and I love that I have
- 55:50Speaker 13: three extra kids, you know, and that wasn't something that
- 55:52Speaker 13: necessarily Paula and I were going to do, is have
- 55:55Speaker 13: more children. So it all worked out in the best
- 55:58Speaker 13: way for us separately. But but yeah, I think you
- 56:01Speaker 13: just you're learning along the way, you know. And and
- 56:05Speaker 13: like I said, the harder things get, once you get
- 56:07Speaker 13: through that, you're only stronger and you're only better, you know,
- 56:10Speaker 13: and you love yourself more. I think this is finally
- 56:12Speaker 13: the period of my life where I'm learning to just
- 56:14Speaker 13: love myself as opposed to search for love from everyone
- 56:17Speaker 13: else and search for affirmation. The patriarchs that I wanted
- 56:20Speaker 13: to impress and hang out with are gone. So now
- 56:24Speaker 13: you know, it's like it's all up to me to
- 56:26Speaker 13: try to find that inspiration and and and do it
- 56:30Speaker 13: for my kids. Yeah, so they can have a great
- 56:32Speaker 13: life and lead by example. That's the thing that I
- 56:34Speaker 13: realized I was messing up is I got to lead
- 56:36Speaker 13: by example. You can't just tell them what to do
- 56:38Speaker 13: and then go act like a fool. You have to
- 56:41Speaker 13: lead by example when you're a parent.
- 56:42Speaker 5: And I guess nobody ever talked about that when it
- 56:44Speaker 5: comes to you when you think about probably the levels
- 56:46Speaker 5: of grief you experienced, right your father and I went through.
- 56:49Speaker 1: I do a speech on stage.
- 56:50Speaker 13: I had these years where I got divorced, ensued, then
- 56:53Speaker 13: my father passed, then my manager passed, then my house
- 56:57Speaker 13: burned down.
- 56:58Speaker 1: What then Andre Herrell passed. That was five years in
- 57:00Speaker 1: a row of tragedy, tragedy, tragedy, tragedy, tragedy. And you know,
- 57:04Speaker 1: I almost That's what I was saying. I almost lost it.
- 57:06Speaker 13: It was looking into my kids' faces every day and saying,
- 57:09Speaker 13: you know, this is worth being your very best for them.
- 57:12Speaker 1: YEA, what do you think God was trying to show you?
- 57:15Speaker 13: I think God was saying, you've had it fairly easy
- 57:18Speaker 13: up till now, even though you thought you struggled you
- 57:22Speaker 13: struggled internally, You've still had a good father, a good mother,
- 57:26Speaker 13: you know, good schools, lots of friends, a nice voice,
- 57:30Speaker 13: you know what I mean. And so I think that
- 57:33Speaker 13: that was just who are you when when you're challenged?
- 57:36Speaker 13: Who are you when the road gets rough? And now
- 57:39Speaker 13: I've found out that I like myself better now that
- 57:42Speaker 13: I went through those times than I did when I
- 57:45Speaker 13: hadn't gone through them and thought I deserved more.
- 57:48Speaker 1: I was entitled to a certain life. Now I don't
- 57:50Speaker 1: feel that I'm entitled to anything. I feel like I
- 57:52Speaker 1: have to earn everything I get. This is the final
- 57:54Speaker 1: ques do you regrect when I'll blearn life?
- 57:56Speaker 9: Oh?
- 57:56Speaker 1: No, of course not. I mean still when I performed,
- 57:59Speaker 1: that's that's the magic. Like I wait till the end,
- 58:02Speaker 1: and as.
- 58:02Speaker 13: Soon as I go, everybody get up from an R
- 58:04Speaker 13: and B show to a dance show, you know, And
- 58:07Speaker 13: so I think that it's more about my goal is
- 58:10Speaker 13: to make the audience feel good. And that song is
- 58:13Speaker 13: still one of the tops, you know, when I perform,
- 58:15Speaker 13: that makes people feel good, So I don't care what
- 58:17Speaker 13: else came with it, as long as the people feel it.
- 58:19Speaker 1: There are many songs that I've done that I've lost
- 58:21Speaker 1: one hundred publishing. You'm not an angel? Wow?
- 58:24Speaker 23: Yeah, Well, because you couldn't get dance all in regular
- 58:27Speaker 23: on radio, so I had to use samples and interpolations
- 58:31Speaker 23: to get on radio, you know what I mean, And
- 58:33Speaker 23: so I knew.
- 58:34Speaker 1: You know, they're like five avenues of income, you know
- 58:37Speaker 1: what I mean.
- 58:37Speaker 23: You got the writer's part right, but then it's a
- 58:41Speaker 23: new master, so you get in the master portion. You're
- 58:43Speaker 23: getting the sings, you know what I mean, You're getting
- 58:45Speaker 23: the sound exchange. You know, you're getting so you know,
- 58:48Speaker 23: he could never look at that record in that way
- 58:50Speaker 23: of like yo, because it changed your life.
- 58:52Speaker 13: And also the challenges that came after that have made
- 58:55Speaker 13: me a stronger better man, you know what I mean.
- 58:57Speaker 13: And that's my point is that if I hadn't faced
- 58:59Speaker 13: everything that came from blurred lines.
- 59:01Speaker 1: And after who knows where, I might have just lost
- 59:03Speaker 1: my mind, you know what I mean.
- 59:05Speaker 13: But luckily I had to be grounded because life threw
- 59:08Speaker 13: me some some challenges and some wrenches. Well, for whatever
- 59:12Speaker 13: reason that's happened to me, I like myself. I mean,
- 59:15Speaker 13: I'd love to be, you know, back on top with
- 59:17Speaker 13: another number one, but I like myself more now than
- 59:19Speaker 13: I did back then, and the.
- 59:20Speaker 5: Grandest scheme of things, what happened with that song pales
- 59:23Speaker 5: in comparison to everything else now for sure.
- 59:26Speaker 13: Because now my kids like that song won't nearly matter
- 59:29Speaker 13: as much as my that's help and pay for.
- 59:31Speaker 1: Their school of zero is still zero, bro, you know
- 59:37Speaker 1: what I mean. So then I'm not good at math.
- 59:40Speaker 1: You know what I mean?
- 59:41Speaker 8: If you go.
- 59:45Speaker 23: What I'm saying, because some people might think that, oh yeah,
- 59:47Speaker 23: because you lost the publish and you lose you know
- 59:49Speaker 23: what I'm saying. You know what I'm saying, You've got it.
- 59:53Speaker 23: You still got the Lion's chair. Last time you had
- 59:54Speaker 23: a pizza. Yeah, well fifty percent, you're still winning, you
- 59:57Speaker 23: know what I'm saying. Yeah there, Yeah, So I'm saying
- 1:00:01Speaker 23: even though that, even though you might think that you
- 1:00:04Speaker 23: didn't get.
- 1:00:04Speaker 1: One hundred percent of the record, you still you know
- 1:00:06Speaker 1: what I'm saying. That's how I'm looking to be honest
- 1:00:08Speaker 1: with you.
- 1:00:08Speaker 5: I don't know what you're saying. It don't matter, okay,
- 1:00:11Speaker 5: because it's all about looking.

- 1:07:06Speaker 5: Bronx and all of Florida.
- 1:07:08Speaker 1: Yes, you are a donkey.
- 1:07:11Speaker 6: The Florida man attacked an ATM for a very strange reason.
- 1:07:14Speaker 6: It gave him too much money.
- 1:07:16Speaker 4: Florida man is arrested after that, saying he rigged the
- 1:07:18Speaker 4: door to his home in an attempt to electric hit
- 1:07:20Speaker 4: his pregnant lights.
- 1:07:21Speaker 6: Police arrested in Orlando man.
- 1:07:23Speaker 1: We're talking a famda the breakfast club. Bitch you donkey
- 1:07:26Speaker 1: of the day with Charlam Hayne, the guy. I don't
- 1:07:28Speaker 1: know why y'all keep you letting him.
- 1:07:29Speaker 5: Get y'all like this and ain'ty little duval as y'all okay,
- 1:07:32Speaker 5: donkey today for Tuesday March seventeenth goes to a thirty
- 1:07:34Speaker 5: five year old Florida man named Aaron Jablonski. Okay, what
- 1:07:38Speaker 5: does your uncle y'alla always say about the great state
- 1:07:40Speaker 5: of Florida?
- 1:07:40Speaker 1: Say he with me?
- 1:07:41Speaker 5: The craziest people in America come from the Bronx and
- 1:07:44Speaker 5: all of Florida, and today is no exception. Now, I
- 1:07:47Speaker 5: think that we have to understand Florida is always going
- 1:07:50Speaker 5: to be Florida, and the things that happen in Florida
- 1:07:53Speaker 5: don't make sense to the rest of the world.
- 1:07:55Speaker 1: Okay. For example, folks love karaoke. I love karaoke. Do
- 1:07:58Speaker 1: you love karaoke? Y envy? You love karaoke?
- 1:08:01Speaker 19: Right?
- 1:08:01Speaker 5: I don't love it as much as most Okay, but
- 1:08:04Speaker 5: I do love karaoke. And I'm talking about actual karaoke
- 1:08:06Speaker 5: with folks sing along to the music with a microphone
- 1:08:08Speaker 5: with lyrics on the screen. Last time I did actual
- 1:08:10Speaker 5: karaoke was with Drea and Lex from the Poor Mines
- 1:08:14Speaker 5: podcast Wrap on the Clues Bumps for Drea and Les.
- 1:08:16Speaker 1: Okay, I was in their studio bodied Mary J.
- 1:08:19Speaker 5: Blige Be Happy. That's one of my favorite songs of
- 1:08:21Speaker 5: all time. Easy work for Me with without the lyrics
- 1:08:24Speaker 5: on the screen. Now, I don't mind a good sing
- 1:08:26Speaker 5: along when we had a concert, are in a party
- 1:08:29Speaker 5: and the song is playing and we all in this
- 1:08:31Speaker 5: singing off key.
- 1:08:31Speaker 1: I love that.
- 1:08:32Speaker 5: But the actual karaoke of it all, with the lyrics
- 1:08:35Speaker 5: on the screen, that's too much pressure.
- 1:08:37Speaker 1: Man. You know it gives me performance anxiety.
- 1:08:39Speaker 5: Okay, ain't nobody got time for their cortisol levels to
- 1:08:42Speaker 5: be elevated unnecessarily, but clearly what I think? Does it
- 1:08:45Speaker 5: matter because there are people who take karaoke seriously and
- 1:08:49Speaker 5: Aaron Jablonski is one of those people. Let's go to
- 1:08:51Speaker 5: BC Bagley six thousand and seven IG page for the
- 1:08:53Speaker 5: report please.
- 1:08:54Speaker 24: Aaron Jablonski, thirty four years old, was arrested for allegedly
- 1:08:58Speaker 24: firing a gun outside of clear Water Floorida bar when
- 1:09:02Speaker 24: the karaoke machine stopped working. Police say Jablonski, a convicted felon,
- 1:09:07Speaker 24: pulled a glock on another patron who tried to calm
- 1:09:10Speaker 24: him down, and then fired around. He was arrested on
- 1:09:13Speaker 24: felony charges of aggravated assault and a legal firearm possession,
- 1:09:17Speaker 24: with this bond set at forty thousand dollars. The smoking
- 1:09:21Speaker 24: gun has reported a judge ordered him to have no
- 1:09:24Speaker 24: contact with the victim and stay away from the bar.
- 1:09:28Speaker 1: Well tell you something there than the song Alive.
- 1:09:30Speaker 5: I want to sing that bad Okay, not one, and
- 1:09:33Speaker 5: I got certain songs that when I hear I have
- 1:09:34Speaker 5: to stop everything.
- 1:09:35Speaker 1: It's just in my soul. Mary J.
- 1:09:36Speaker 5: Blige, Be Happy, Mary J Blige, My Life Sold for Real,
- 1:09:40Speaker 5: Candy Rain, the Heavy DN track Master's Remix.
- 1:09:42Speaker 1: Okay, Guy, I like all right, new Edition?
- 1:09:45Speaker 5: If it is in Love, Bobby Brown, Every Little Step Crime,
- 1:09:47Speaker 5: Bob Knuck, if you Buck, Regina Bell, God is Good,
- 1:09:50Speaker 5: Young Dolph.
- 1:09:51Speaker 1: One hundred Shots. Those are songs that do something to
- 1:09:54Speaker 1: my spirit no matter where I am.
- 1:09:57Speaker 5: Okay, no matter what I'm doing, I'm gonna pause my
- 1:09:59Speaker 5: day ten Joido's record. But I ain't going to jail
- 1:10:02Speaker 5: for none of them. Okay, if the music is that bad,
- 1:10:04Speaker 5: just leave and guess what he did leave. That's the
- 1:10:07Speaker 5: sad part. Aaron left the bar. People tried to get
- 1:10:11Speaker 5: him to calm down, but instead of cooling off, he
- 1:10:13Speaker 5: pulled out a glock. God will give you multiple chances
- 1:10:18Speaker 5: to make a different choice, and some humans have just
- 1:10:20Speaker 5: held bent on not making the correct choice, okay. In destiny,
- 1:10:24Speaker 5: it's not a matter of chance. It's a matter of choice.
- 1:10:27Speaker 1: Okay.
- 1:10:28Speaker 5: In fact, Aaron decided to let a shot off in
- 1:10:30Speaker 5: the air, and it was illegal for him to possess
- 1:10:33Speaker 5: a handgun because his rap sheet was longer than Sarah
- 1:10:35Speaker 5: Jessica Parker's face.
- 1:10:36Speaker 1: Okay.
- 1:10:37Speaker 5: He had a twenty twelve felony conviction for battery on
- 1:10:41Speaker 5: a law enforcement officer.
- 1:10:42Speaker 1: He was convicted at DUI disorderly conduct, the theft.
- 1:10:45Speaker 5: Resisting an officer, okay, with violence, and violating information.
- 1:10:49Speaker 1: So yeah, he had no business with a gun. Okay. Now,
- 1:10:52Speaker 1: it's two other things that are bothering me about this story.
- 1:10:55Speaker 5: One they didn't tell us what else Okay, what else
- 1:10:59Speaker 5: was this dude on, because it couldn't have been that
- 1:11:01Speaker 5: he was just mad? You know what that the karaoke
- 1:11:04Speaker 5: machine wasn't working. I know he had to be on drugs. Okay,
- 1:11:07Speaker 5: jess what's the drugs you named this morning? You're trying
- 1:11:09Speaker 5: to get off?
- 1:11:09Speaker 6: Wow, weed, marijuana, and edibles.
- 1:11:13Speaker 1: It was one more. It ain't none of them, Okay.
- 1:11:16Speaker 1: I know what cocaine sounds like.
- 1:11:17Speaker 5: And Aaron is the first ballot Hall of Fame sniffle right,
- 1:11:20Speaker 5: there's no way on God's green Earth. Okay, even though
- 1:11:23Speaker 5: he is from Florida that he wasn't indulging in the
- 1:11:25Speaker 5: finess of book of Sugars.
- 1:11:27Speaker 1: Okay.
- 1:11:27Speaker 5: The second thing is what song did he want to
- 1:11:29Speaker 5: hear so bad that he got mad and pulled the
- 1:11:32Speaker 5: glockout and fired a shot in the air.
- 1:11:34Speaker 1: Okay?
- 1:11:34Speaker 5: His karaoke song of choice remains a mystery, But I'm
- 1:11:38Speaker 5: going to assume since it's Florida and because of the circumstances,
- 1:11:41Speaker 5: his favorite artist is gun and Play.
- 1:11:43Speaker 1: Please give Aaron Jablonsky the biggest he huh that's crazy?
- 1:11:51Speaker 1: Oh God, yes, I see the glimmer in your eyes.
- 1:11:59Speaker 1: Let's play a game of guess what race is?
- 1:12:04Speaker 5: Aaron Jablonsky from Florida got upset because the karaoke machine
- 1:12:08Speaker 5: wasn't working. They tried, they took him outside, tried to
- 1:12:11Speaker 5: cool him off, and instead he pulled out his glock
- 1:12:13Speaker 5: and shot his glock in the air.
- 1:12:14Speaker 1: Dj Envy, guess what race is? This is a tough one.
- 1:12:21Speaker 1: We'll tell you why.
- 1:12:22Speaker 19: Right.
- 1:12:22Speaker 1: If you go to a karaoke joint, who do you
- 1:12:26Speaker 1: usually see?
- 1:12:27Speaker 4: That's what I'm thinking. But then it doesn't fit with
- 1:12:30Speaker 4: the last name.
- 1:12:30Speaker 1: What do you usually see when you go to a
- 1:12:33Speaker 1: karaoke joint, karaoke.
- 1:12:39Speaker 6: Places that goes to I see Asians and black people.
- 1:12:41Speaker 4: I see mostly Asians at the karaoke spot really wrestle
- 1:12:45Speaker 4: all the time. But I've never heard of Asian with a.
- 1:12:50Speaker 1: Last name. You got open congo styles. Okay, I didn't
- 1:12:56Speaker 1: say that though.
- 1:12:56Speaker 4: That's not my answer because because said Blonski, then you said,
- 1:13:00Speaker 4: pulled out a clock up.
- 1:13:02Speaker 1: Everybody carried blocks. Man, stupid stereotype said everybody likes karaoke.
- 1:13:09Speaker 5: Everybody likes blocks. That's why that's what you're messing up,
- 1:13:13Speaker 5: because it don't matter when it's race in Florida.
- 1:13:15Speaker 1: It's Florida. Okay, but go ahead, But I've never heard
- 1:13:19Speaker 1: of an age in Jablonski.
- 1:13:20Speaker 5: So I gotta go wow, wow, the way you think

- 1:13:35Speaker 5: the karaoke machine was not working.
- 1:13:38Speaker 1: And shot shot in the air. Just hilarious. Guess what
- 1:13:41Speaker 1: race is Polish? Why? Why? Why Polish origin?
- 1:13:52Speaker 6: The origin is Polish Jewish.
- 1:13:54Speaker 1: Yeah, I want to change my answer. No, you can't

- 1:16:06Speaker 25: They don't really tell you and it's kind of based
- 1:16:07Speaker 25: on necessity and you know what your needs are being
- 1:16:09Speaker 25: and a more functional And I'm at nineteen percent, so
- 1:16:12Speaker 25: pushed me a little further down the list than someone
- 1:16:14Speaker 25: who's been written.
- 1:16:15Speaker 1: In more critical and different things.
- 1:16:17Speaker 6: Okay, at one point I came.
- 1:16:19Speaker 1: Up to here because this is our heart, so I
- 1:16:20Speaker 1: thought y'all could hook me up. So that's why I'm here,
- 1:16:24Speaker 1: no medical equipment, no heart. So for people that.
- 1:16:27Speaker 4: Don't know, explain to them to what happened with But you, well,
- 1:16:31Speaker 4: you needed hard because you were perfect health in the
- 1:16:32Speaker 4: gym me and you would go in the city to
- 1:16:34Speaker 4: city doing shows and then all of a sudden something happened.
- 1:16:37Speaker 25: I had a heart attack. And it started when Jesse
- 1:16:40Speaker 25: was there when we did the Stay Farm. She saw
- 1:16:41Speaker 25: him on the side of the things. She was like,
- 1:16:42Speaker 25: she was making jokes like what was wrong with you?
- 1:16:44Speaker 1: Man?
- 1:16:45Speaker 6: That's when I didn't know what was going on.
- 1:16:47Speaker 25: So I had a heart attack and I was right
- 1:16:48Speaker 25: before I did the Apollo show, just killing me the
- 1:16:53Speaker 25: whole time.
- 1:16:53Speaker 1: When I went, she was killing me. I'm sorry, having
- 1:17:00Speaker 1: a heart attack. Yeah, you know, but I like that.
- 1:17:08Speaker 25: But honestly, I appreciate that because it's crazy. It's you know,
- 1:17:10Speaker 25: it's trying to get you out of it that.
- 1:17:11Speaker 9: You know.
- 1:17:11Speaker 1: Humor helps, you know, it does a lot. So when
- 1:17:14Speaker 1: just crack, I'm like, not right now, baby, not right now.
- 1:17:17Speaker 1: Just she's like, but you ain't gonna you gonna do

- 1:17:35Speaker 1: But I'm sorry for your dad's did you leave in
- 1:17:38Speaker 1: the coffee? So it's every So nothing's off the table today, right.
- 1:17:41Speaker 25: Nothing is off the time. I know, I know we're
- 1:17:42Speaker 25: going on with everything, so I expected, but yeah, that
- 1:17:44Speaker 25: happened at the Apollo. So that had the heart attack
- 1:17:46Speaker 25: and then I tried to go back and film this
- 1:17:48Speaker 25: special at the apollow And right after I film my
- 1:17:50Speaker 25: Apollo special, I had to be rushed to the hospital.
- 1:17:53Speaker 25: I was in it up being a male clinic. Big
- 1:17:54Speaker 25: shout out to the male clinic. I was living in
- 1:17:56Speaker 25: Arizona for like six months. On the list getting well
- 1:17:59Speaker 25: enough to even just come back out and big shout
- 1:18:00Speaker 25: out to L I J. So can you say your
- 1:18:02Speaker 25: heart of that nineteen percent?
- 1:18:03Speaker 17: Yeah?
- 1:18:04Speaker 9: What is it?
- 1:18:05Speaker 1: I'm just gonna be a stupid question. But what does
- 1:18:06Speaker 1: it need to be at the function way more than
- 1:18:08Speaker 1: ninety sixty?
- 1:18:11Speaker 17: Yeah?
- 1:18:12Speaker 4: Just why did they say you had the heart attack?
- 1:18:13Speaker 4: Was it a particular reason or congenital heart failure? So
- 1:18:16Speaker 4: I have congenital heart failure, which means that you know
- 1:18:18Speaker 4: it's inherited. So I got it from my dad. Appearently gotcha.
- 1:18:21Speaker 7: And then all you do is keep going and keep
- 1:18:23Speaker 7: going and keep going like all you do is working,
- 1:18:25Speaker 7: Like I mean, all you do is work?
- 1:18:26Speaker 6: So did you have downtime? Did you give yourself downtime
- 1:18:30Speaker 6: in between that?
- 1:18:30Speaker 7: Because you have ambulance in every show I say you
- 1:18:34Speaker 7: have to And if you notice the American Heart Association,
- 1:18:36Speaker 7: we have to pollow.
- 1:18:36Speaker 1: We teach CPR and a lot of that. It has
- 1:18:38Speaker 1: to be like that.
- 1:18:39Speaker 25: So I have a helm nurse and a health care
- 1:18:42Speaker 25: provider that I keep constantly going back in. So some
- 1:18:44Speaker 25: days are really really good and some days are just
- 1:18:46Speaker 25: really really bad.
- 1:18:47Speaker 6: But do you add to it from keep going like
- 1:18:50Speaker 6: you just all you do is work.
- 1:18:52Speaker 1: Before he was way worse before I really had to
- 1:18:55Speaker 1: take it down.
- 1:18:55Speaker 25: So I do one show at a time and said,
- 1:18:57Speaker 25: like when we do the wild Out tour, and I
- 1:18:58Speaker 25: produced the whole while out to it. Yeah, thirty cities,
- 1:19:01Speaker 25: forty cities at the time, and set it off the
- 1:19:02Speaker 25: garden in like three weeks. But now it's like, do
- 1:19:04Speaker 25: one show, pull back and you know, check your health
- 1:19:07Speaker 25: to make sure because.
- 1:19:08Speaker 1: I want to.
- 1:19:08Speaker 25: I want to be here because when I was in
- 1:19:10Speaker 25: the hospital, I thought I wasn't honestly coming out. I
- 1:19:12Speaker 25: really thought that it was just this was it. I
- 1:19:14Speaker 25: was like, I'm praying, I was getting my will together.
- 1:19:16Speaker 25: I was like, I get it, because when you're that low,
- 1:19:19Speaker 25: it's just nothing. I mean, you know it's bad when
- 1:19:20Speaker 25: they start giving you, stop giving you prescription and start
- 1:19:23Speaker 25: giving you a scripture. So it was front I don't go.
- 1:19:26Speaker 1: To the hospital. I call one day and Rip said,
- 1:19:29Speaker 1: is so damn bad.
- 1:19:29Speaker 4: I'm like, I gotta go see this brother man him
- 1:19:31Speaker 4: from long I lay let me in, but I said
- 1:19:33Speaker 4: I gotta go see him because I just felt it,
- 1:19:35Speaker 4: just you just heard it in his voice, and Rip
- 1:19:37Speaker 4: some of that speak to. When I got there, I
- 1:19:41Speaker 4: didn't know Michael's real name, so I got it like
- 1:19:43Speaker 4: an idiot. But I'm here to see Rip Michaels. They're like,
- 1:19:45Speaker 4: there is no Rip Michaels. I'm calling Rip ripped on answer.
- 1:19:47Speaker 4: I'm videotaped, so I couldn't get until I had to leave.
- 1:19:50Speaker 1: But how do you know he was really there? Rip?
- 1:19:51Speaker 1: You know everything else he did?
- 1:19:54Speaker 25: Actually did? He feeled it right outside. He's like, I'm
- 1:19:56Speaker 25: right here. They won't give me, let me in because
- 1:19:57Speaker 25: they won't see you. I bited it too, but I didn't.
- 1:20:04Speaker 1: I was like, damn, you know what I want to ask.
- 1:20:08Speaker 1: So last time you were here, you griped some water,
- 1:20:12Speaker 1: please the man's heart.
- 1:20:16Speaker 4: Last time you hear you, you talked about that you
- 1:20:19Speaker 4: were upset with your wife at one time. You said
- 1:20:21Speaker 4: that she ran off because she was scared. She didn't
- 1:20:23Speaker 4: know what happened. But you guys have recently made back
- 1:20:25Speaker 4: up in your back.
- 1:20:25Speaker 1: Good.
- 1:20:26Speaker 25: Oh yeah, my wife left me in the hospital, but
- 1:20:27Speaker 25: she came back pregnant, so uh what it's my maybe though,
- 1:20:30Speaker 25: don't look at.

- 1:20:37Speaker 1: This is my I got a black Indian baby coming
- 1:20:41Speaker 1: with a under This makes mine. How did y'all make up?
- 1:20:50Speaker 4: Because I know, I know that hurts you at one
- 1:20:52Speaker 4: time and you felt the way, but you also said
- 1:20:53Speaker 4: that she was scared, didn't know what to do.
- 1:20:55Speaker 25: Yeah, when you just get recently married and you you
- 1:20:58Speaker 25: you go through you know something that traumatic, like it's
- 1:21:00Speaker 25: a lot. You know, one day you're marrying your husband's
- 1:21:02Speaker 25: finding because it's the general I didn't know.
- 1:21:04Speaker 1: I didn't know.
- 1:21:04Speaker 25: You know, that's nothing I was doing. I wasn't eating
- 1:21:06Speaker 25: bad with a diet I could fix. It was just
- 1:21:08Speaker 25: because my mom just like I guess, chose to do
- 1:21:11Speaker 25: with bad in.
- 1:21:11Speaker 6: A good art.
- 1:21:12Speaker 4: I don't know, general, I don't know what that's water
- 1:21:15Speaker 4: by the way it say monster, but it's water.
- 1:21:16Speaker 1: But make sure you know I got an issue like
- 1:21:20Speaker 1: that too. My my arteries are aging faster than me.
- 1:21:24Speaker 5: But it's literally just all hereditary like my unlad mad
- 1:21:28Speaker 5: heart surgeries.
- 1:21:29Speaker 1: My dad like like just so back to the day.
- 1:21:33Speaker 4: So how did y'all? How did y'all make up? Because
- 1:21:34Speaker 4: I know that upset you one time? Y'all, well, you
- 1:21:37Speaker 4: were down by that.
- 1:21:37Speaker 25: I wasn't really upset about it. It's just when you
- 1:21:41Speaker 25: get you know, because first of all, I went in.
- 1:21:43Speaker 25: I'm thinking I'm gonna be fine. I'm thinking that, you know,
- 1:21:45Speaker 25: I'm going in there. I'm thinking they're just gonna you know,
- 1:21:47Speaker 25: you know, it's an artery thing. I'm thinking it's cholesterol.
- 1:21:49Speaker 25: I'm thinking it's like, you know, okay, cool, I'm gonna
- 1:21:51Speaker 25: get a stin. I'm saying that, oh you get a stand.
- 1:21:54Speaker 25: People telling me about the process. And then when they
- 1:21:57Speaker 25: were doing the right hard calf they literally cause when
- 1:22:00Speaker 25: they take in going your thing and they show your
- 1:22:01Speaker 25: heart and they literally just stopped everything when they put
- 1:22:05Speaker 25: the thing in. It was the whole er and cardiac
- 1:22:08Speaker 25: team just ran in and it was just like no, no.
- 1:22:11Speaker 25: And then from that moment and I did that by myself,
- 1:22:14Speaker 25: so it was just to and just to hear that.
- 1:22:16Speaker 25: And then it was like who do you want to call? Like,
- 1:22:18Speaker 25: because you're not coming out of this a very long
- 1:22:22Speaker 25: time and it's just and the thank God they held
- 1:22:24Speaker 25: my hand, I was it was.
- 1:22:26Speaker 1: It was just bad. It did so to process that
- 1:22:29Speaker 1: because the.
- 1:22:29Speaker 25: One thing in life you think is that when you
- 1:22:31Speaker 25: go through something like that, you're going to have somebody there.
- 1:22:35Speaker 25: And it was just me and God and I thank
- 1:22:37Speaker 25: God for my daughter, because she literally every day, every
- 1:22:40Speaker 25: day she was there, she took off and almost flunk
- 1:22:42Speaker 25: out of school trying to be there for me. So
- 1:22:44Speaker 25: to answer a question, to work through it, you know,
- 1:22:46Speaker 25: I had to understand because you know your own issues,
- 1:22:48Speaker 25: but you got to understand other people issues to be
- 1:22:50Speaker 25: married and your husband, like a four or five months later,
- 1:22:54Speaker 25: just in the hospital, how do you deal with that?
- 1:22:58Speaker 1: Like, how do you how do you even get trust?
- 1:23:00Speaker 1: How do you rebuild trust to even want to be
- 1:23:03Speaker 1: with her?
- 1:23:03Speaker 25: After that communication and understanding everyone's understanding of what that
- 1:23:08Speaker 25: is like not every everyone can deal with that right
- 1:23:10Speaker 25: right away. And you know, my wife is diagnosed with
- 1:23:12Speaker 25: bipolar sdrume, you met my wife from Malli of time,
- 1:23:15Speaker 25: so and you know her explaining everything and what it
- 1:23:18Speaker 25: was for her and understanding her side, like we got
- 1:23:21Speaker 25: a whole podcast about it, our call kind of sort
- 1:23:23Speaker 25: of married.
- 1:23:23Speaker 6: So and then also, like you said, kind of because we.
- 1:23:29Speaker 25: Talk about the whole thing and how we got through it.
- 1:23:31Speaker 25: Does it give you a new sense of urgency? It does, man, Because,
- 1:23:36Speaker 25: like to be totally honest with y'all, when I was
- 1:23:37Speaker 25: in the hospital, I lost my health insurance.
- 1:23:40Speaker 1: So and I'm sad, so to get to get health insurance.
- 1:23:43Speaker 25: And if you're sad, you have to do movies and
- 1:23:46Speaker 25: films you have maigod certain things and there's nothing you
- 1:23:49Speaker 25: could do, that's nothing you could pay for.
- 1:23:50Speaker 1: So I lost my health insurance.
- 1:23:51Speaker 25: And when I lost my health insurance, I reached out
- 1:23:53Speaker 25: to every single person I ever known that had anything
- 1:23:56Speaker 25: to do with film. When I was like, just put
- 1:23:57Speaker 25: me as an extra, put me as whatever I parked
- 1:23:59Speaker 25: the car, Just give me the sack thing. I'll give
- 1:24:01Speaker 25: you the money to pay sack so I can get
- 1:24:03Speaker 25: my insurance. And no one, really, no one, not one
- 1:24:07Speaker 25: even next single person put me in nothing. And that's
- 1:24:11Speaker 25: why I was like, you know what, if I ever
- 1:24:12Speaker 25: get out of this hospital, b I'm gonna make it.
- 1:24:14Speaker 25: And I'm because my whole thing, I've always been pushing everybody.
- 1:24:17Speaker 25: It's always been like pushing this, push monicul, push this, whoever,
- 1:24:20Speaker 25: you know, starting so many different things. And when that happened,
- 1:24:22Speaker 25: I was like, I say, okay, God, if you let
- 1:24:24Speaker 25: me make it through this, I'm gonna do what you
- 1:24:26Speaker 25: act me. I'm gonna actually care about my career and
- 1:24:28Speaker 25: I just push everybody for it. I'm gonna take a stance,
- 1:24:31Speaker 25: and that's what I started doing. I was like, Okay,
- 1:24:32Speaker 25: now it's d Michaels. Now I'm gonna do my special.
- 1:24:34Speaker 25: Now I'm gonna do this. Now I'm gonna show the
- 1:24:35Speaker 25: world what I was supposed to do at the beginning,
- 1:24:38Speaker 25: because I know you're trying to throw money bus but
- 1:24:40Speaker 25: not one.
- 1:24:40Speaker 4: I was just asked because I know y'all had it
- 1:24:42Speaker 4: like if I was going through something, I know I
- 1:24:44Speaker 4: could rely on Charlomon no One.
- 1:24:46Speaker 5: Not Brandony Jack's no One. And Brandon was doing the
- 1:24:50Speaker 5: BT Show at the time. He had the whole car
- 1:24:52Speaker 5: web business.
- 1:24:54Speaker 1: Push your relationship with these guys.
- 1:24:55Speaker 25: Now, then I understand that everybody in this business sometimes
- 1:25:00Speaker 25: it's just business. Sometimes you think it's personal, but it's not.
- 1:25:03Speaker 25: Sometimes handshakes just mean a handshait, and you know it.
- 1:25:07Speaker 25: Bigot Dick Nick came to visit me and everything. But
- 1:25:09Speaker 25: then sometimes you know, I don't know, that's a question
- 1:25:12Speaker 25: for them.
- 1:25:13Speaker 5: Why didn't happen? But I know I got it back
- 1:25:15Speaker 5: and it was funny. Who actually helped me was Justina.
- 1:25:17Speaker 5: Justina filmed Yes a White Lady, Justina Valentine. She filmed
- 1:25:22Speaker 5: the movie and New Jersey. Yeah, she's she's straight just
- 1:25:25Speaker 5: because she got the black. Her and Gary Oons used
- 1:25:29Speaker 5: to have the same mass.
- 1:25:35Speaker 1: Help you.
- 1:25:36Speaker 25: So she had a movie, independent movie that she filmed
- 1:25:39Speaker 25: in New Jersey, and when I told her, she was like, rip,
- 1:25:41Speaker 25: don't worry about it.
- 1:25:42Speaker 1: I'm gonna write you in the movie. Tell me what
- 1:25:44Speaker 1: you owe Sack.
- 1:25:44Speaker 25: I make sure you make that wow. And then like,
- 1:25:47Speaker 25: come on, I wrote for I wrote Brandon's whole specials.
- 1:25:50Speaker 25: You see me take Brandon around the whole thing and
- 1:25:52Speaker 25: helping them. Yeah, because I gotta keep branding on shows.
- 1:25:56Speaker 25: You know why, because no matter how many times they
- 1:25:57Speaker 25: boo brand and he still come back and he keep
- 1:25:59Speaker 25: going on.
- 1:26:00Speaker 1: I'm like, you know what, I admired that.
- 1:26:04Speaker 5: Letna say something Sleuth and Justina Valentine for that, that
- 1:26:06Speaker 5: was incredible. Maybe those other people weren't in position to
- 1:26:10Speaker 5: be able to hire again, that's the question for them.
- 1:26:13Speaker 1: It is what it is Justine. That's solid though, I
- 1:26:16Speaker 1: mean the whole movie and did it like instantaneously.
- 1:26:19Speaker 6: Gonna be great. I'm actually in a movie too.
- 1:26:21Speaker 1: Yeah, that she put us all in the movie. So
- 1:26:23Speaker 1: shout out to her.
- 1:26:23Speaker 6: But I love her for that specifically and Justina my girl.
- 1:26:26Speaker 25: Like I've been working with Justina, I write with jokes
- 1:26:28Speaker 25: and then she's going to get her in the comedy thing.
- 1:26:31Speaker 25: So I'm always trying to and to see that come
- 1:26:33Speaker 25: back from person you would never think, you know, a
- 1:26:36Speaker 25: white lady saved my life.
- 1:26:40Speaker 1: We're on magic.
- 1:26:43Speaker 5: Every time I said her she saw fit spinned and
- 1:26:45Speaker 5: most minds like white teacher.
- 1:26:48Speaker 1: And she said around what she says your life, cause
- 1:26:52Speaker 1: she said she does. She said it all the time.
- 1:26:53Speaker 1: She says it all the time. She's like, where your
- 1:26:56Speaker 1: black friends at.
- 1:27:02Speaker 8: That?
- 1:27:02Speaker 1: Andrew Jump you doing the podcast Who's a Comedy Show?

- 1:27:23Speaker 1: straight Bush And the.
- 1:27:25Speaker 5: Fact that you didn't say nothing envy was crazy? What
- 1:27:27Speaker 5: because we safe? Okay, first of all, let's be super clear,
- 1:27:30Speaker 5: every single person on that show knew t I was
- 1:27:35Speaker 5: doing comedy. I got to drop it was said t
- 1:27:37Speaker 5: I doing comedy for the first time. That was the
- 1:27:39Speaker 5: whole advertisement push behind it. And he knew, damn well,
- 1:27:44Speaker 5: who was on the show with him, and he just
- 1:27:46Speaker 5: got booed.
- 1:27:46Speaker 25: It was simple as that. He went on stage did
- 1:27:49Speaker 25: his jokes and the crowd was like, you could have
- 1:27:52Speaker 25: whatever you like, but it ain't comedy. And Tiny was
- 1:27:56Speaker 25: on the side and she was trying to escape.
- 1:27:58Speaker 1: So it was just who could she run to? And
- 1:28:01Speaker 1: it wasn't hurt, so it just and he he should
- 1:28:04Speaker 1: have just took it. It happens every we don't get booed.
- 1:28:06Speaker 1: He took it.
- 1:28:06Speaker 5: Let me, I'm about to have a heart attack getting
- 1:28:08Speaker 5: on it. So but uh, he literally took it. And
- 1:28:11Speaker 5: when he came on Breakfast, I was like, why would
- 1:28:12Speaker 5: you say? I said to you, I gave you a
- 1:28:14Speaker 5: great amount of money and you just you just hate it,
- 1:28:16Speaker 5: like it was a telling. You heard the joke he
- 1:28:18Speaker 5: was talking about somebody like heated seats in the greyhound
- 1:28:20Speaker 5: bus stage in the crowd like what is that?
- 1:28:22Speaker 1: What about? It just got really weird and he was like, yeah, enough, enough,
- 1:28:27Speaker 1: enough enough. He's always been big you up though, and
- 1:28:30Speaker 1: thank you for giving him the opportunity. It's a double
- 1:28:32Speaker 1: side of comment.
- 1:28:33Speaker 5: And he'd be like, I thank grim Michaels bringing me
- 1:28:35Speaker 5: on the show, but he put me on the show
- 1:28:36Speaker 5: at a time that was particularly articulately not ready.
- 1:28:41Speaker 1: And it's just weird that he said that he got booed.
- 1:28:43Speaker 1: And it just happens. It just happens.
- 1:28:45Speaker 5: And you know, Charlie Man was one of the first shows,
- 1:28:47Speaker 5: the April Fool Show. We did it, uh Westbury. It's
- 1:28:49Speaker 5: a tough crowd. Just you've done it sometimes.

- 1:28:59Speaker 25: like ten minutes, you ain't got but a second. And

- 1:29:03Speaker 25: gonna let nobody bow t I. We're not gonna let
- 1:29:06Speaker 25: and we did that.

- 1:33:59Speaker 20: So Seine sat down with Mace, Treasure Wilson and cam
- 1:34:04Speaker 20: Over on It Is What It Is, and it talked
- 1:34:06Speaker 20: about a lot because Sean has his concerts that he'll
- 1:34:10Speaker 20: be doing here in New York and some new music coming.
- 1:34:14Speaker 6: So they got into some things.
- 1:34:15Speaker 20: Uh So, there's always been a conversation about Shine dating
- 1:34:18Speaker 20: Brandy while Mace was also dating Brandy.
- 1:34:21Speaker 6: At this Never I heard it in my life really, No, Yeah.
- 1:34:24Speaker 20: It's been a thing that he's China's talked about it,
- 1:34:27Speaker 20: but now China is talking about it with Mace. Let's
- 1:34:30Speaker 20: take a listen to that conversation.
- 1:34:31Speaker 1: What happened with Brandy and everything? You was dating Brandy
- 1:34:35Speaker 1: at one time or you'll was just how to go.
- 1:34:38Speaker 1: I was special, you know, and wanted to be. He
- 1:34:46Speaker 1: was the he was the champion, He was the MVP.
- 1:34:49Speaker 1: I was Kobe.
- 1:34:49Speaker 26: No pun intended because they said Kobe was a special
- 1:34:52Speaker 26: friend of Brandy's as well, you know, but I had
- 1:34:54Speaker 26: no idea. So what happened is we had a mutual
- 1:34:57Speaker 26: friend who was a snitch.
- 1:34:58Speaker 1: I think he know who it is. I was so
- 1:35:00Speaker 1: excited because this is my.
- 1:35:02Speaker 26: Dream person, Brandy, poor kid Brooklyn watching them TV watching
- 1:35:08Speaker 26: Moesha as a dream.
- 1:35:10Speaker 1: I'm like man, But she was the No Shine got that.
- 1:35:13Speaker 26: Yeah, I had no idea though, because she was he
- 1:35:16Speaker 26: was special, so he was running that playbook so discreetly,
- 1:35:21Speaker 26: so quietly.
- 1:35:22Speaker 1: I had no idea.
- 1:35:25Speaker 6: Yeah, so they get into that a bit.
- 1:35:26Speaker 20: And that's something that Shane Is also talked about in
- 1:35:28Speaker 20: his documentary, and he talked about it for a second
- 1:35:31Speaker 20: here on the Breakfast Club, Ladies.
- 1:35:32Speaker 5: That's why you have to be careful who you get at,
- 1:35:34Speaker 5: who you you know, be out here with, because if
- 1:35:36Speaker 5: you are a woman with any type of notoriety and
- 1:35:39Speaker 5: it was with a guy, it will be a topic
- 1:35:40Speaker 5: of discussion at some point in this era.
- 1:35:44Speaker 20: Well, the friend that they that they have in common
- 1:35:48Speaker 20: or the person that they're talking about in common is Diddy,
- 1:35:51Speaker 20: and they get into the conversation. Yeah, they get into
- 1:35:54Speaker 20: a conversation about Diddy, of course. And I thought there
- 1:35:58Speaker 20: was a lot of conversation around just bad boy and
- 1:36:00Speaker 20: did he But there was one moment where Mace and
- 1:36:03Speaker 20: Shine and Cam are talking about accountability and giving a
- 1:36:07Speaker 20: Diddy grace end or not.
- 1:36:08Speaker 6: Let's take a listen to that.
- 1:36:09Speaker 27: I think Puff could have been better if people held
- 1:36:12Speaker 27: him accountable. I'm more upset with the people than I
- 1:36:16Speaker 27: am with Puff. Nobody held him accountable. Everybody let him
- 1:36:20Speaker 27: run a mark for what they needed from him. So
- 1:36:23Speaker 27: like right now, it's a good thing to kick him
- 1:36:24Speaker 27: while he's down. I'm not gonna kick him when he's down.
- 1:36:27Speaker 27: I'm just saying my experience. Everybody that be talking, I
- 1:36:31Speaker 27: think they're all, how could I say, not accomplices, But
- 1:36:35Speaker 27: they're responsible too because they let it happen. But when
- 1:36:38Speaker 27: we got into this to make music, we didn't think
- 1:36:40Speaker 27: it was gonna die. We didn't think people were being
- 1:36:44Speaker 27: We didn't think people were being sadamized because I think
- 1:36:46Speaker 27: they make light of what's really happening. Yeah, like really
- 1:36:50Speaker 27: like seven died, right, a total of more than ten dies.
- 1:36:55Speaker 5: I think the conversation because I mean we didn't know them.
- 1:36:58Speaker 5: I'm sure those folks around him, his inner circle, they
- 1:37:01Speaker 5: knew him way better than you know, most people did Enables, right,
- 1:37:05Speaker 5: But like you said, we didn't know and we seen
- 1:37:06Speaker 5: him from the outside.
- 1:37:07Speaker 1: But that's what made Mace leave so early, right and
- 1:37:10Speaker 1: Seane got locked up.
- 1:37:11Speaker 4: So I guess they're talking from the you know, his
- 1:37:13Speaker 4: friends and his people that was around him that could
- 1:37:16Speaker 4: have stopped this that scene it happened.
- 1:37:17Speaker 5: I wonder what makes it talking about Mason's probably talking
- 1:37:20Speaker 5: about the people who are around who be having these
- 1:37:23Speaker 5: conversations now now, but y'all were around and didn't stop the.
- 1:37:28Speaker 6: Siding and people that we've seen on the dock and things.
- 1:37:31Speaker 20: I wanted to say those were allegations because he didn't
- 1:37:34Speaker 20: say allegedly in any of that, but those are all
- 1:37:36Speaker 20: things that were alleged of.
- 1:37:37Speaker 6: Didty what when he set off the side of me
- 1:37:39Speaker 6: and that that he But how.
- 1:37:41Speaker 1: Do you stop that?
- 1:37:42Speaker 26: Though?
- 1:37:42Speaker 8: Like you.
- 1:37:44Speaker 6: No back up?
- 1:37:45Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Like, how do you do that?
- 1:37:47Speaker 1: I hope you ain't doing that in public anyway? Damn
- 1:37:50Speaker 1: you boy? You just do that in front of somebody. Well.
- 1:37:53Speaker 20: They also got into a conversation about how people felt
- 1:37:56Speaker 20: at the time, and I thought that this was good
- 1:37:57Speaker 20: because I've heard this conversation, but hearing it from the
- 1:37:59Speaker 20: inside was different. How people felt about the fact that
- 1:38:02Speaker 20: when did he signed Seane, they thought that this was
- 1:38:05Speaker 20: him trying to find another BIGGI.
- 1:38:07Speaker 6: Let's take a listen.
- 1:38:08Speaker 19: Do you think that people at the label felt like,
- 1:38:11Speaker 19: even though he passed away RP, he was trying to
- 1:38:14Speaker 19: replace big because I remember being entertainment and I was like,
- 1:38:18Speaker 19: gonna trying to sound just like Biggie.
- 1:38:20Speaker 27: Yeah, No, I think initially everybody felt that because you
- 1:38:23Speaker 27: got to remember a big dog. So it's like Sean
- 1:38:26Speaker 27: was almost like to me the first time I heard
- 1:38:30Speaker 27: fab and I'm thinking, like, what is he doing? You know,
- 1:38:33Speaker 27: because at that time you had never heard anybody that
- 1:38:36Speaker 27: sounded remotely close to somebody, So at first it was
- 1:38:40Speaker 27: it was a lot because I was in the studio
- 1:38:42Speaker 27: with Big, So when I heard when I first heard Sean,
- 1:38:45Speaker 27: I was like, what's puff doing? Like, you know, I
- 1:38:47Speaker 27: was one of those people too, like what is he doing?
- 1:38:49Speaker 27: But when I met him, I was like, Nah, he's
- 1:38:52Speaker 27: gonna he's gonna be good. But then when I heard
- 1:38:54Speaker 27: the record his first single, I was like, oh, yeah,
- 1:38:57Speaker 27: he gets it.
- 1:38:58Speaker 1: That was definitely a conversation back, yeah, I mean just
- 1:39:01Speaker 1: just amongst consumers.
- 1:39:02Speaker 4: Yeahause he sounded so much like Big, especially with his
- 1:39:05Speaker 4: first couple of freestyles. But then when he came out
- 1:39:06Speaker 4: with his singles, you started seeing he had his own
- 1:39:08Speaker 4: lane and his own thing.
- 1:39:09Speaker 1: Well, the other guy who sounded like Big back then
- 1:39:12Speaker 1: Gravy No No Gorilla Black, Garrilla Black Gorilla Black from
- 1:39:18Speaker 1: No No Go Back from the West Coast.
- 1:39:20Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, but that was a good conversation.
- 1:39:23Speaker 20: It's in full over on it is what it is
- 1:39:26Speaker 20: and speaking of sounded like so we talked about Jack
- 1:39:28Speaker 20: Carlow in here yesterday and his R and B or
- 1:39:30Speaker 20: like neo soul album whatever you want to classify it as.
- 1:39:33Speaker 20: And oh they are pissed that as Charlotte for saying
- 1:39:35Speaker 20: it and made him sound whider. I saw complex pick
- 1:39:37Speaker 20: that up.
- 1:39:38Speaker 5: But so they made No, it wasn't that the album
- 1:39:41Speaker 5: made him sound wider. His comments about how whatever that
- 1:39:45Speaker 5: made him sound whier.
- 1:39:47Speaker 6: Well, nonetheless, it's your opinion, you can have it.
- 1:39:49Speaker 20: I just wanted to mention some of the names that
- 1:39:51Speaker 20: the Internet has given him in the last like what
- 1:39:53Speaker 20: like forty eight hours, maybe link Condition, neo colonial soul music,
- 1:39:59Speaker 20: Stole Child, Knife, wonder Bread, Charlie Kirk, Franklin, most definitely not,
- 1:40:05Speaker 20: Luca van Droz, uncommon white Thought, Honky Honky Hunk.

- 1:40:21Speaker 1: No, still don't like it? All right?
- 1:40:23Speaker 6: Is it just because he's right campaign it for the album?
- 1:40:30Speaker 6: But I didn't think it was that.
- 1:40:31Speaker 1: You said, Is it because he's white. What did his
- 1:40:34Speaker 1: race got to do anything. I just don't like the music,
- 1:40:36Speaker 1: the first couple of I just it's just good that winter.
- 1:40:41Speaker 1: That winter song really pisses me off. Winter summer.

- 1:41:23Speaker 1: What we're doing I don't know. I ain't no goddamn woman.
- 1:41:29Speaker 1: Just what are we doing today?
- 1:41:31Speaker 17: Yo?
- 1:41:32Speaker 7: So the theme today for me is from trauma to trust,
- 1:41:35Speaker 7: and for that I'm honoring Justice played by Janet Jackson
- 1:41:39Speaker 7: in the film Poetic Justice, and my humble opinion, she's
- 1:41:41Speaker 7: worthy of honoring for her resilience and overcoming grief. Remember
- 1:41:45Speaker 7: she lost her boyfriend and he was murdered or whatever,
- 1:41:48Speaker 7: and she used poetry for her emotional healing. I feel
- 1:41:52Speaker 7: like she serves as an authentic, relatable role model who
- 1:41:55Speaker 7: keeps herself together while dealing with our trauma, and through
- 1:41:57Speaker 7: all that, her vulnerability and growth helps her to open
- 1:42:00Speaker 7: up herself to love again with Lucky played by Tupac,
- 1:42:04Speaker 7: of course, and despite her fear in her past. You know,
- 1:42:09Speaker 7: she showcased a journey of healing so poetic, solutely shut.
- 1:42:18Speaker 6: Because it's real, you know, like women, women go through that,
- 1:42:21Speaker 6: you know what I mean.
- 1:42:22Speaker 7: And I know a lot of women that didn't lost
- 1:42:24Speaker 7: their men, and you know, they think it's impossible to
- 1:42:28Speaker 7: love again. But you know, just if you just say
- 1:42:31Speaker 7: a couple of poems, you know what I'm saying, really
- 1:42:33Speaker 7: have an outlet, you know. Her outlet was poetry, you know.
- 1:42:37Speaker 7: And then a car broke down. She had to get
- 1:42:39Speaker 7: to this convention, and you know, she ended up with
- 1:42:42Speaker 7: the love of her life, Lucky, and she ended up
- 1:42:45Speaker 7: you know, doing his doorter hair because she was a hairstylist.
- 1:42:48Speaker 7: I forgot to say that, but.
- 1:42:49Speaker 1: Right, all right, word cool, solute to all the real
- 1:42:56Speaker 1: women out there. Yo.
- 1:42:58Speaker 7: I keep telling y'all, I'm doing films, characters from films
- 1:43:01Speaker 7: because every film is inspired by somebody's real life.
