- 3:28Speaker 1: You know what I did do? I caught up on
- 3:29Speaker 1: a lot of podcasts this weekend. I really enjoyed Tis
- 3:33Speaker 1: Expeditiously podcast. Okay, the two part series with Killer Mike
- 3:37Speaker 1: is amazing. You should really listened to part two, The
- 3:38Speaker 1: at Land Away, because they just laid down a blueprint
- 3:41Speaker 1: that so many people could replicate in the cities all
- 3:43Speaker 1: across America. And not by people, I mean black people.
- 3:46Speaker 1: Amanda Sales podcasts, Small Doses, the one on Cancel Coaches incredible,
- 3:50Speaker 1: and Ti and Alex Jones great conversation. Okay, great conversation
- 3:55Speaker 1: because Alex Jones the conspiracy theorists. If you've ever read
- 3:58Speaker 1: like We Hold the Pale Horse, you know, and it's
- 4:01Speaker 1: just it's just interesting to hear him in a TI
- 4:04Speaker 1: having a conversation because we all live in this this
- 4:06Speaker 1: arrow where everybody wants to be around people who think
- 4:08Speaker 1: like them. Right, it's just like this echo chamber, so
- 4:11Speaker 1: nobody really learns anything, correct, you know. And I like
- 4:13Speaker 1: to see two people who have two different thought processes
- 4:16Speaker 1: dialoguing with each other. So that was that was good.
- 4:18Speaker 1: So that's what I did. Okay, let's get the show
- 4:20Speaker 1: cracking now. Forrest Whittaker will be joining us. Yes, we'll

- 5:27Speaker 1: the calf not twelve to ten, but it's twelve to ten.
- 5:30Speaker 1: Sounds like a wash to you now, I gotta make
- 5:32Speaker 1: it sound because trashazz game. It was a horrible game,
- 5:34Speaker 1: by the way, How's played terrible. I wasn't mad at it.
- 5:36Speaker 1: Now Tonight Monday Night Football, the Steelers take on the
- 5:39Speaker 1: Cincinnati Bengals now in boxing. Arrow Spence, who's been up
- 5:43Speaker 1: here a couple of times, I believe, beat up sean Port.
- 5:46Speaker 1: Shawn part has been up here two years. Fight It
- 5:49Speaker 1: wasn't a great fight. It was a great fight. One
- 5:50Speaker 1: of the best fights I've seen all yet. I sparred
- 5:52Speaker 1: with Shawn Porter before I did three rounds of Seawan Porter.
- 5:54Speaker 1: It's on a video if you were looking up on YouTube.
- 5:56Speaker 1: But it was a great fight. Than you're laughing that,
- 5:58Speaker 1: I'm going to knock your bid off talking about they're
- 6:01Speaker 1: giggling the snake ring. You know what I'm saying. But
- 6:04Speaker 1: Sleut the earl spent to Sean Port a great fight.
- 6:07Speaker 1: I don't think that fight took any anything away from
- 6:09Speaker 1: either opponent. Now, um in Ohio, four prisoners overpowered, overpowered
- 6:15Speaker 1: some guards and escape from Ohio jail. They made up
- 6:17Speaker 1: some makeshift weapons. Now, the four guys, one was arrested
- 6:22Speaker 1: for uh stolen property, another one was for drug trafficking.
- 6:26Speaker 1: The other one was failure to appear in court. I
- 6:29Speaker 1: don't know why he would leave. And the last one
- 6:32Speaker 1: was identity fraud. So they're looking for four individuals. They're
- 6:35Speaker 1: driving a Dodge Charger. Gray. I got so many questions,
- 6:38Speaker 1: why would you escape from jail when your chargers aren't
- 6:41Speaker 1: even charges that's gonna keep you in jail. Forever. Not
- 6:43Speaker 1: at all. Weapons did they make that is more stronger
- 6:46Speaker 1: than guns? Well, you know, they don't have guns in jail.
- 6:49Speaker 1: The officers don't have guns in jail. No, they don't. No.
- 6:52Speaker 1: I thought they had people on the towers and stuff
- 6:53Speaker 1: with weapons and things like that. I think that's only
- 6:55Speaker 1: in the movies, and that's only in certain places. Not
- 6:57Speaker 1: you know, I don't know. But these are these are small.
- 6:59Speaker 1: Like the guy who was a jail wasn't a prison,
- 7:01Speaker 1: right jail. This guy failed to appear in court. He
- 7:04Speaker 1: should have never left, you know what I mean. The
- 7:06Speaker 1: guy receiving stolen property, he shouldn't have left. Trafficking drugs
- 7:12Speaker 1: depends what type of drugs it us And it depends
- 7:14Speaker 1: how many times he's gotten called trafficking drugs. Yeah, it depends.
- 7:17Speaker 1: Then the identity fraud depends how much it was. No,
- 7:22Speaker 1: that's not gonna keep you in jail forever. Yeah, you're right, No, yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 7:25Speaker 1: you're right. Now, Donald Trump, he wants to meet with
- 7:28Speaker 1: the whistleblower. He says he wants to meet He deserves
- 7:31Speaker 1: to meet with his accuser, especially when this accuser of
- 7:33Speaker 1: the soul called whistleblower represented a perfect conversation with a
- 7:36Speaker 1: foreign leader in a totally inaccurate and fraudulent way. Trump
- 7:39Speaker 1: doesn't know any of this work. Now, he doesn't, He
- 7:42Speaker 1: absolutely possibly doesn't. He says the whistle blower will appear
- 7:45Speaker 1: before the House panel. Now Trump had this to say,
- 7:48Speaker 1: what's going on now is the single greatest scam in
- 7:51Speaker 1: the history of American politics. The Democrats want to take
- 7:55Speaker 1: away your guns, they want to take away your healthcare,
- 7:58Speaker 1: they want to take away everything thing. We can never
- 8:01Speaker 1: let this happen. We're fighting to drain the swamp. And
- 8:04Speaker 1: that's exactly what I'm doing. And you see why we
- 8:07Speaker 1: have to do it, because our country is at stake
- 8:10Speaker 1: like never before. They're trying to stop me, because I'm
- 8:14Speaker 1: fighting for you and I'll never let that happen. And
- 8:17Speaker 1: his followers, who you know, follow him and who voted
- 8:20Speaker 1: for him and who support him, they believe that nonsense.
- 8:22Speaker 1: That he's right now as your president, is a criminal
- 8:24Speaker 1: and he's been a criminal, and he finally got caught,
- 8:26Speaker 1: because that's what happens when you keep your hand in
- 8:28Speaker 1: the cookie jow a little too long. He probably wants
- 8:29Speaker 1: to meet with the whistle blow so you can try
- 8:31Speaker 1: to pass the whistle blow a brown paper bag full
- 8:33Speaker 1: of some money. Maybe you know, did to change his story.
- 8:36Speaker 1: Maybe maybe probably that's that's what that is. But you
- 8:39Speaker 1: know it's too late. The transcript is out. We stow

- 17:45Speaker 1: to talk about Kanye, so don't move. It's to Breakfast Club.
- 17:47Speaker 1: Good Morning, the Breakfast Club. Listen, Oh my gosh, got
- 17:56Speaker 1: the rumor report God God with Angel Angela. It's the
- 17:59Speaker 1: Room Report the Breakfast Club. Now, Kanye West was all
- 18:03Speaker 1: over the place this weekend. He's releasing a new album.
- 18:05Speaker 1: I believe this week is called Jesus Is King. I
- 18:08Speaker 1: thought that he pushed it back. No, it was supposed
- 18:10Speaker 1: to be Friday, and they saying they're trying to get
- 18:12Speaker 1: it out this week. I thought he said he put
- 18:14Speaker 1: it out on Sunday's supposed to come out on Friday.
- 18:16Speaker 1: That supposed coming on Friday. Said he was pushing it back,
- 18:17Speaker 1: and then he said the last Friday, Sunday supposed Fast Friday,
- 18:20Speaker 1: Fast Friday. Yeah, so supposed to come out this week.
- 18:22Speaker 1: They say, but we don't know, we're not sure as
- 18:24Speaker 1: he yet. But Friday he was out in Detroit and
- 18:26Speaker 1: he played snippets of the album. People that was at
- 18:30Speaker 1: the venue that was they got free tickets. They said
- 18:32Speaker 1: that it's a lot of gospel sounds, very gospel he's
- 18:35Speaker 1: rarely rapping on a lot of the songs, and they
- 18:38Speaker 1: said it sounds pretty good. Now, Kanye also said that
- 18:40Speaker 1: he's not doing any secular music anymore. It's all gospel
- 18:43Speaker 1: from here on out. What what, what exactly is secular
- 18:46Speaker 1: musicrom people say they're not doing secular music because somebody
- 18:49Speaker 1: from the gospel community explain to me what secular music
- 18:51Speaker 1: is exactly, because I've been I used that term a lot,
- 18:54Speaker 1: but I wonder what that actually means. Let me see,
- 18:57Speaker 1: secular music is simply music that have not affiliated with
- 19:00Speaker 1: any religious practice, our tradition. So a song like back
- 19:05Speaker 1: in the day Inspected Deck to Power of God, and
- 19:07Speaker 1: you would that be considered the gospel record because he's
- 19:09Speaker 1: rapping about God? Though you know, I don't understand what
- 19:12Speaker 1: the secular music thing means. Um, I don't know. That's
- 19:16Speaker 1: a good question, and that is a great question, Jesus walks.
- 19:19Speaker 1: Would that be considered a secular record? They considered that
- 19:23Speaker 1: gospel music back in the day, Remember that was they
- 19:25Speaker 1: played that on gospel stations, they played on hip hop stations,
- 19:27Speaker 1: they played that even on R and B stations. That
- 19:28Speaker 1: would that went across all boards? If I remember correctly.
- 19:31Speaker 1: Saturday he was out in Chicago with a chance to
- 19:34Speaker 1: rap or playing some cuts, and then yesterday he was
- 19:36Speaker 1: out in Queens, New York, Jamaica. Queens. He went to
- 19:39Speaker 1: Alan Church and shout the pastor Floyd Flake, and he
- 19:42Speaker 1: performed there and everybody said, the music sounding so great.
- 19:45Speaker 1: So let's play a clip of him freestyling in Queens
- 19:49Speaker 1: ne movie. I love it. It's positive Music's feel good,
- 20:16Speaker 1: feel good music. When when when God gets in you
- 20:19Speaker 1: and tells you to change your life, you change your life.
- 20:20Speaker 1: That freestyle would be whack anywhere with the church though,
- 20:23Speaker 1: clear you know what I'm saying. That only works in
- 20:25Speaker 1: the church when everybody no good when he said it,
- 20:27Speaker 1: and everybody got the Holy ghost, and you're just trying
- 20:28Speaker 1: to get people on their feet. I see people trying to,
- 20:30Speaker 1: you know, uh say, yea is making a mockery of
- 20:33Speaker 1: God and he's trying to copy the Gods off religion. Yeah.
- 20:36Speaker 1: I don't see how you can say that when one
- 20:37Speaker 1: of his first records was Jesus walks. You understand I'm sing,
- 20:40Speaker 1: and not to mention people grow and people evolved, people
- 20:43Speaker 1: can change species in their life. If he wants to
- 20:45Speaker 1: make gospel music at the point in his career. I
- 20:47Speaker 1: don't have a problem with you don't know what his
- 20:48Speaker 1: plan was. You know, no, you don't know what God's
- 20:50Speaker 1: plan for him was. Absolutely and and that's the thing.
- 20:53Speaker 1: I mean, it could be one of those things. But
- 20:56Speaker 1: God wants to make him one of the biggest artists
- 20:57Speaker 1: ever and say, you know what, now, I want you
- 20:58Speaker 1: to speak my word. That's usually how it works. What
- 21:01Speaker 1: he said, God doesn't God doesn't call to qualified, He
- 21:05Speaker 1: qualifies the call. That's right. Yes, so Jesus is king.
- 21:08Speaker 1: The new album is supposed to be an album in documentary.
- 21:10Speaker 1: I can't wait to hear it a little. Nas X
- 21:13Speaker 1: looks like he's going through a little bit of stress.
- 21:14Speaker 1: He cancels two shows and he announced he's taking a
- 21:16Speaker 1: little time off from music. He said the last seven
- 21:20Speaker 1: months has been really rough and he just needs some
- 21:21Speaker 1: time to himself. I have no problem with him taking
- 21:25Speaker 1: a break. I'm just saying, when you got one record, though,
- 21:28Speaker 1: it's kind of tough. He put out an album, No,
- 21:29Speaker 1: he put out an EP. Like I said, when you
- 21:31Speaker 1: got one record, you know what I'm saying, it's kind
- 21:33Speaker 1: of tough to take a break. Might you need to
- 21:34Speaker 1: get all you can now because tomorrow is not promised.
- 21:37Speaker 1: Maybe that's maybe that's part of it. Maybe he wants
- 21:39Speaker 1: to get all that he can down. He's been working,
- 21:40Speaker 1: he's been on the road. He he has been able
- 21:42Speaker 1: to enjoy his life. You take too long of a
- 21:43Speaker 1: break when you a guy with one record. It might
- 21:45Speaker 1: be it. That's all I'm saying. Maybe wants to date,
- 21:48Speaker 1: Maybe wants to start a family. Maybe he just wants
- 21:49Speaker 1: to chill do your thing. That's a hundred million dollar record.
- 21:53Speaker 1: He should have made a lot of money off that
- 21:55Speaker 1: one run. Did I pray he did. I pray he
- 21:58Speaker 1: did not get got any contract situations, and I pray
- 22:01Speaker 1: that he made all his money off that record. All right,
- 22:04Speaker 1: that is a record that could last him a lifetime. Well,
- 22:07Speaker 1: congratulations to two Short two shot. Too Short became a

- 24:47Speaker 1: I don't know why these four individuals would be running
- 24:49Speaker 1: from the police, because they don't seem like these crimes
- 24:50Speaker 1: are too crazy. It don't look like they would be
- 24:52Speaker 1: sitting in jail too long. But I don't know why
- 24:55Speaker 1: they tried to run. I don't know. They sound like
- 24:57Speaker 1: four knoke of the days than me, and I don't
- 24:59Speaker 1: I really don't get it, especially being that none of
- 25:01Speaker 1: them was gonna sit in jail forever for any of
- 25:03Speaker 1: those charges that they had. Now, they said they drove
- 25:06Speaker 1: the car a block away where another car was waiting
- 25:08Speaker 1: for them. They believed to be in the twenty nineteen
- 25:10Speaker 1: Dodge Charger with Ohio plate already. Yeah, no, no, no, no,

- 25:21Speaker 1: They got caught a hour going North Carolina. Three out
- 25:23Speaker 1: of four of them got caught Riata, four of them.
- 25:25Speaker 1: All right, you know, they either gonna hold it down
- 25:27Speaker 1: or they're gonna six nine another fourth guy. They probably
- 25:29Speaker 1: don't know where he's at the Probably that guys probably,
- 25:31Speaker 1: I'm sure they were all together. That one dude was
- 25:33Speaker 1: just smart enough to say, you know what, I'm gonna
- 25:34Speaker 1: separate from y'all four. I'm gonna go ya. I've seen
- 25:38Speaker 1: set it off before. The best thing for us to
- 25:40Speaker 1: do is to split up, all right, So y'all three
- 25:42Speaker 1: can stick together, you damn students. I'm gonna go solo dolo.
- 25:45Speaker 1: All right. Now, you're President Donald Trump. He wants to
- 25:47Speaker 1: meet with the whistle blower. He says, I deserve to
- 25:50Speaker 1: meet my accuser, especially when it's accused of The so
- 25:53Speaker 1: called whistleblower represented a perfect conversation with a foreig leader
- 25:57Speaker 1: in a totally inaccurate and fraudulent way. Do you think
- 26:00Speaker 1: gonna say to the accused when he meets him, I
- 26:02Speaker 1: don't know. I'll try to hand him a brown paper
- 26:04Speaker 1: back full of some money to try to get him
- 26:05Speaker 1: a change the story. Possibly, Well, ye had this to say.
- 26:09Speaker 1: What's going on now is the single greatest scam in
- 26:12Speaker 1: the history of American politics. The Democrats want to take
- 26:16Speaker 1: away your guns, they want to take away your healthcare,
- 26:19Speaker 1: they want to take away everything. We can never let
- 26:22Speaker 1: this happen. We're fighting to drain the swamp. And that's
- 26:25Speaker 1: exactly what I'm doing. And you see why we have
- 26:28Speaker 1: to do it because our country is at stake like
- 26:32Speaker 1: never before. They're trying to stop me because I'm fighting
- 26:35Speaker 1: for you and I'll never let that happen. This situation
- 26:39Speaker 1: is so hiliarus to me because Donald Trump is acting
- 26:41Speaker 1: like himself. Along with his attorney Root Giuliani didn't confess
- 26:45Speaker 1: to asking another country to investigate a potential presidential candidate.
- 26:49Speaker 1: They both confess that they did this. Nobody made it up,
- 26:51Speaker 1: You did it. It's the legal violation of his oath
- 26:54Speaker 1: of office. The man has been committing crime since he's
- 26:56Speaker 1: been in the White House, and I'm just happy that
- 26:57Speaker 1: people and by people, I mean Nafylosi in the house
- 26:59Speaker 1: to crash finally acting like it right, like a period.
- 27:03Speaker 1: All right, well, that is your front page news. Now
- 27:06Speaker 1: let's talk about this some more in depth. Eric Holder,
- 27:08Speaker 1: Attorney General, will be joining us. He's been here before,
- 27:10Speaker 1: by the way, I think this is the second time
- 27:12Speaker 1: of him. Yep. So we'll kick it with him when
- 27:13Speaker 1: we come back. All right, so don't move. It's the
- 27:15Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. Good morning, audience, DJ Envy Angela yee, Charlemagne
- 27:20Speaker 1: the guy. We all the Breakfast Club. We got a
- 27:21Speaker 1: special guest in the building, indeed, Attorney General Eric Hold.
- 27:25Speaker 1: Eric Holder, welcome south. What's happening to my peoplecome back?
- 27:28Speaker 1: I'm glad to see you. You started a great group
- 27:31Speaker 1: to redistrict redistricting group, right yep, National Democratic Redistricting Committee
- 27:34Speaker 1: for redistrics thing after the distressing What am I saying?
- 27:39Speaker 1: Redis rediculous redistricting? Nick King, redistricting redistrict redistrict got it?
- 27:46Speaker 1: We called the R What did that stand for them?
- 27:52Speaker 1: National Democratic Redistricting Remistricting. Okay, what is that? And w
- 27:57Speaker 1: we wasted five minutes or I'm just trying to get
- 28:00Speaker 1: the name straight to it. All right? What did that
- 28:04Speaker 1: mean though? And what that important? Every ten years, after
- 28:08Speaker 1: the census, which happens every ten years, the United States
- 28:10Speaker 1: UM goes into a period of redistricting where we draw
- 28:13Speaker 1: new legislative districts for the states and also for our
- 28:15Speaker 1: congressional seats. Twenty eleven, the Republicans really went to town
- 28:19Speaker 1: and jerrymandered UM the redistricting process so that they ended
- 28:22Speaker 1: up with more seats than they deserved on the basis
- 28:25Speaker 1: of the number of votes they got. And so in
- 28:27Speaker 1: twenty twenty one, we want to make sure that Democrats
- 28:29Speaker 1: are at the table and then we have a fair PROCESSUS. Yeah,
- 28:34Speaker 1: people are afraid, and I understand that given what the
- 28:37Speaker 1: Trump administration is done to try to create that climate
- 28:40Speaker 1: of fear and the Hispanic community especially, And one of
- 28:43Speaker 1: the things we have to do is encourage people to
- 28:45Speaker 1: make sure that they raise their hands, that they get voted,
- 28:47Speaker 1: because to have a fair redistricting process in twenty twenty one,
- 28:50Speaker 1: you've got to have a fair census in twenty twenty today.
- 28:52Speaker 1: Shouldn't be scared. Shouldn't be scared. I can understand the
- 28:55Speaker 1: level of fear and the concern that people have, but
- 28:58Speaker 1: the stakes are too high to simply not participate in
- 29:01Speaker 1: the census. The census is the basis for determining how
- 29:04Speaker 1: nine hundred billion dollars in federal aid is distributed to
- 29:08Speaker 1: the states, and also again, how the redistricting is done,
- 29:10Speaker 1: and how that is how political power is decided to
- 29:13Speaker 1: be distributed over the course of the next decade. Didn't
- 29:16Speaker 1: they try to make a law where you had to say,
- 29:18Speaker 1: one of the questions would be are you a legal immigrant? Right? Yeah?
- 29:21Speaker 1: And when that got shot down, yeah, the question is
- 29:22Speaker 1: whether or not you are a citizen. They wanted to
- 29:24Speaker 1: include a citizenship question, which hasn't been included on the
- 29:27Speaker 1: long form of the census since nineteen fifty. We file
- 29:29Speaker 1: the lawsuit, the NDRC filed a lawsuit that we won,
- 29:33Speaker 1: and the Trump administration ultimately backed down, and so the
- 29:36Speaker 1: citizenship question will not be included on the Trump has
- 29:40Speaker 1: access to this if need be, though, well, the Census
- 29:43Speaker 1: Bureau will have access to the information, and it's actually
- 29:47Speaker 1: typically historically it's really held that information and jealously guarded
- 29:51Speaker 1: the information. That are protocols in place, for instance, so
- 29:54Speaker 1: that the FBI doesn't get access to that information. Now,
- 29:57Speaker 1: these are the norms, and now what happened not in
- 29:59Speaker 1: the arms anymore, exactly what happens with this administration, what
- 30:03Speaker 1: they'll try to do with it. You know, I have
- 30:05Speaker 1: to be honest with people. You know, We'll try to
- 30:07Speaker 1: do all that we can to make sure that some
- 30:08Speaker 1: of those norms are are are followed, but we have
- 30:12Speaker 1: to be wary. You know, would always talk about the
- 30:14Speaker 1: Russians interfering that our elections and voter suppression and Mitch
- 30:17Speaker 1: McConnell blocking an election security bill. Why are people people
- 30:19Speaker 1: acting like election security is no big deal? Why are
- 30:22Speaker 1: people raising more hell about that? Well? I have been
- 30:25Speaker 1: I've been out there, you know. That's this is what
- 30:26Speaker 1: I've been doing since I left the Department of Justice,
- 30:29Speaker 1: talking about the need for election security, to make sure
- 30:32Speaker 1: that people have the right to vote, that we stop
- 30:34Speaker 1: voter suppression, that we make sure that people from off
- 30:38Speaker 1: our shores, outside our shores don't have an ability to
- 30:40Speaker 1: influence our elections. There's a whole range of things that
- 30:43Speaker 1: we need to focus on. I mean, the House passed
- 30:45Speaker 1: a bill that would distribute about I think two hundred
- 30:47Speaker 1: fifty million dollars to the States to allow the States
- 30:50Speaker 1: to get ready for what the Russians are going to
- 30:52Speaker 1: try to do. Mitch McConnell bodies upside until he just said,
- 30:55Speaker 1: I guess last week or so after he was called
- 30:57Speaker 1: Moscow Mitch, which apparently really got to him. He's now
- 31:00Speaker 1: authorized the distribution of that money. Democrats were on the
- 31:04Speaker 1: on the case, but not on the debate stage. Corey,
- 31:07Speaker 1: like in the last few debates, Correy Book was like
- 31:08Speaker 1: the only person we even mentioned it even remotely. Well,
- 31:13Speaker 1: I don't you know, I'm part of the problem with
- 31:15Speaker 1: assessing people's what they talk about in these debates, the
- 31:18Speaker 1: questions that they get asked, you know, and one of
- 31:22Speaker 1: the things you know, we've had, I know, one, three
- 31:23Speaker 1: four debates whatever this is. No one's asked anybody anything
- 31:25Speaker 1: about jerrymandering, about redistricting, about voting issues, you know, I
- 31:30Speaker 1: know it's my point. I know about the healthcare plans, now,
- 31:32Speaker 1: I got it. I know what people stand on healthcare.
- 31:34Speaker 1: I don't need to hear that anymore. Let's talk about
- 31:36Speaker 1: Let's talk about some other things. Like you got statiating
- 31:38Speaker 1: with the Fair Fight twenty twenty, right, which you're doing,
- 31:41Speaker 1: but I just feel like it should be louder like
- 31:43Speaker 1: our demand to me. I feel like our democracy is
- 31:45Speaker 1: is damned dead until we fix that. I mean, our
- 31:47Speaker 1: democracy is at stake, and people who don't understand that,
- 31:50Speaker 1: I mean simply because we've had a democracy for two
- 31:52Speaker 1: hundred and fifty years or so doesn't mean it's always
- 31:54Speaker 1: going to be there. The Russians are trying to do
- 31:56Speaker 1: things to it. I would say that the Republicans are
- 31:58Speaker 1: trying to undermine from within our democracy with jurymandering, voter purges,
- 32:04Speaker 1: voters suppression, and we've got a fight to save our democracy.
- 32:07Speaker 1: What do you say to people who are saying, oh,
- 32:09Speaker 1: what's the point in voting if it's just going to
- 32:11Speaker 1: be you know, voter suppression is just going to be
- 32:14Speaker 1: people interfering with the election process and all of that.
- 32:17Speaker 1: What do you tell people who say, well, my vote
- 32:19Speaker 1: doesn't matter anyway, Every vote counts. And we also have
- 32:22Speaker 1: to understand that people died, people sacrifice, people committed themselves
- 32:27Speaker 1: to a struggle to allow us to have the right
- 32:29Speaker 1: to vote. John Lewis got his skull cracked on the
- 32:31Speaker 1: Edmund Pattis Bridge so that people would be allowed to vote.
- 32:34Speaker 1: Three civil rights workers give their gave their lives in
- 32:36Speaker 1: nineteen sixty three in Mississippi, again they were trying to
- 32:39Speaker 1: register people to vote. We dishonor that legacy, We dishonor
- 32:43Speaker 1: their work if we don't do the simple thing of voting. Now.
- 32:46Speaker 1: That may mean it may mean that we're gonna have
- 32:48Speaker 1: to wait in line for three four hours in districts
- 32:51Speaker 1: where there are people of color, which is unfair. Shouldn't happen.
- 32:55Speaker 1: But I think to make sure that that doesn't happen
- 32:57Speaker 1: the next time, we have to put in place people
- 33:00Speaker 1: who will really value the right to vote. But it's
- 33:04Speaker 1: a legacy. There's you know, we have to honor the work,
- 33:07Speaker 1: the commitment, the effort of people for many years ago.
- 33:10Speaker 1: Do you recommend that people go vote early too, just
- 33:13Speaker 1: to kind of make sure in case there's any issues,
- 33:15Speaker 1: you can smooth that out and know ahead of time.
- 33:17Speaker 1: And that's a really great point. I think that every
- 33:19Speaker 1: we should take advantage of those early voting periods that
- 33:22Speaker 1: exist in different states. Vote as early as you can
- 33:25Speaker 1: to make sure that your vote gets counted. You may
- 33:27Speaker 1: be minimizing you out of time that you're going to
- 33:29Speaker 1: have to wait but again, Republicans have tried to, you know,
- 33:32Speaker 1: decrease the number of days that are available for early voting.
- 33:36Speaker 1: You know, Republicans want to make it more difficult to vote.
- 33:39Speaker 1: They think that, you know, some Democrats are of the
- 33:41Speaker 1: view that the more people vote, it's you know, that's
- 33:44Speaker 1: better for us. That's a defining issue. I think for
- 33:46Speaker 1: the parties. We think more people ought to vote, that
- 33:49Speaker 1: will help the Democratic Party. They want to restrict the
- 33:51Speaker 1: number of people. They want to pick their voters. They
- 33:53Speaker 1: want to decide who should actually be allowed to vote.
- 33:56Speaker 1: A lot of Democrats that come up here they say
- 33:58Speaker 1: that the reason they don't tell the truth was happening
- 34:01Speaker 1: with the election security buildings. They don't want to discourage
- 34:03Speaker 1: voters from voting in twenty twenty. That Democrats don't want
- 34:06Speaker 1: to discourage Yes, they don't want to discourage voter from
- 34:08Speaker 1: voting in twenty twen. Like if we tell people, hey,
- 34:10Speaker 1: there is Russian interference, Yeah, of course we know it's
- 34:12Speaker 1: voter suppression. Miss mconnell blocked the Lecscurity bill. We tell
- 34:15Speaker 1: people that it will discourage people from voting. I think truth,
- 34:17Speaker 1: you know, truth is always a good thing. Really, people
- 34:20Speaker 1: understand what the deal is. People understand what they've got
- 34:22Speaker 1: to overcome. I mean, the history of African Americans in
- 34:25Speaker 1: this country shows that, you know, we were able to
- 34:28Speaker 1: deal with truth and to overcome. You know, So put
- 34:31Speaker 1: it out there, Tell people what's out there, what they're
- 34:33Speaker 1: gonna be up against. You know, people will deal with
- 34:35Speaker 1: it absolutely. I mean, no, you think is voting in
- 34:39Speaker 1: twenty nineteen, twenty twenty, twenty twenty one, You think that's difficult, Well, yeah,
- 34:43Speaker 1: maybe it might be a little inconvenient, but think about
- 34:46Speaker 1: what doctor King had to put up with, what John
- 34:47Speaker 1: Lewis had to put up. That's hard. It's because people
- 34:51Speaker 1: came out and overwhelming numbers to vote, right, And I'm
- 34:54Speaker 1: sure there was suppression at that time too. Sure there
- 34:56Speaker 1: were attempts to try to, you know, keep the countdown,
- 34:59Speaker 1: but young people came out, people of color came out.
- 35:02Speaker 1: You know, every presidential election is important. The election in
- 35:06Speaker 1: twenty twenty is existential. Donald Trump cannot get another four years.
- 35:10Speaker 1: He's damaged our institutions, damaged the norms that we've had.
- 35:13Speaker 1: He could destroy things with another another four years. We
- 35:17Speaker 1: have more with Attorney General Eric Holder. When we come back,
- 35:19Speaker 1: don't move as to Breakfast Club Morning's DJ Envy Angela
- 35:23Speaker 1: Ye Chelamne the guy we all to Breakfast Club. We're
- 35:25Speaker 1: still kicking it with Eric Holder, Attorney General. Do you
- 35:28Speaker 1: think he wound up in jail Donald Trump? That's interesting?
- 35:31Speaker 1: I mean, I don't I don't know. You know, I
- 35:33Speaker 1: think the case that put Michael Cohen in jail, he
- 35:37Speaker 1: has been named as an unindicted co conspirator, and so
- 35:40Speaker 1: clearly he could be charged once he's out of office
- 35:44Speaker 1: that he would no longer have the ability to say,
- 35:46Speaker 1: you know, sitting president can't be indicted. Question and ultimately
- 35:49Speaker 1: would be whether or not the next Attorney General, the
- 35:51Speaker 1: next president, would make a decision that he should in
- 35:54Speaker 1: fact be prosecuted. You know, but Gerald Ford made the
- 35:56Speaker 1: decision that Nixon should not be and granted him a pardon.
- 36:00Speaker 1: I think that same issue, that same question would confront
- 36:03Speaker 1: you know, the next president. You know, I think no,
- 36:09Speaker 1: I'm not no. I'm saying reflexively, um, you know, emotionally
- 36:13Speaker 1: I'd say yes, But I have to think about what's
- 36:15Speaker 1: the impact on the country. You know, what would we
- 36:18Speaker 1: do by putting Donald Trump on trial, potentially putting him
- 36:21Speaker 1: in jail? Would that have a negative impact on just
- 36:24Speaker 1: the nation that needs to heal after um he's out.
- 36:27Speaker 1: Does country care about what happens to the criminals? Well,
- 36:31Speaker 1: you know, if the nation should care about the impact
- 36:35Speaker 1: of our criminal justice system on individuals and what it
- 36:38Speaker 1: does to them, also what the criminal justice system has
- 36:41Speaker 1: done to communities of color, you know, for instance. So
- 36:44Speaker 1: I think it's a legitimate concern to under figure out
- 36:47Speaker 1: what is the impact of a particular prosecution or prosecution
- 36:51Speaker 1: policy is going to be m on individual communities and
- 36:54Speaker 1: on the nation as a whole. Question. Out of all
- 36:57Speaker 1: Trump's impeachable offenses, which one could rather than an Obama
- 37:00Speaker 1: have gotten away with none exactly, he'd be they'd be
- 37:03Speaker 1: trying to profit. They were gonna put him in jail.
- 37:05Speaker 1: They wouldn't put him in Jeff wearing a tan suit, remember,
- 37:08Speaker 1: you know, So why are we having any empathy for
- 37:11Speaker 1: Donald Trump? If Donald Trump wasn't the president, he was
- 37:13Speaker 1: just a regular citizen, would he'd be going to jail?
- 37:16Speaker 1: Forget if he's a regular citizen. If you said that
- 37:18Speaker 1: Obama was about to go to jail for a tan suit,
- 37:21Speaker 1: I'm saying, but you said he couldn't. Don't think none
- 37:23Speaker 1: of those. He's a federal statute that says you can't
- 37:25Speaker 1: wear ten suits. But you know, he couldn't have got
- 37:27Speaker 1: away with any of those offenses. No, No, well he
- 37:29Speaker 1: couldn't have gotten away with They certainly would have held
- 37:31Speaker 1: hearings and all that stuff, whether they ultimately would have
- 37:33Speaker 1: prosecuted him. You know. Again, I don't know. I don't know. Um,
- 37:37Speaker 1: it's a tough questions. It's again I said, as I
- 37:39Speaker 1: said reflexively, instinctively, I'd say, yeah, you know, the jail, Yeah,
- 37:44Speaker 1: given all the stuff that he's done. But I think,
- 37:46Speaker 1: you know, at some point, some policymaker, um, some decision
- 37:50Speaker 1: makers gonna have to step back and say, do we
- 37:52Speaker 1: really want to do we really want to do this?
- 37:53Speaker 1: I mean, now, he should be held accountable, you know,
- 37:55Speaker 1: And that's that. I'm always a person who says that
- 37:57Speaker 1: there's you know, individuals should be held accountab for their
- 38:00Speaker 1: their actions, and he certainly ought to be held accountable
- 38:02Speaker 1: for all that he has, all that he's done. What
- 38:04Speaker 1: did you think when you heard of when you read
- 38:06Speaker 1: the transcript between Donald Trump and Ukrainian president, it was disturbing, um,
- 38:11Speaker 1: the notion that the president would reach out to um,
- 38:15Speaker 1: a foreign leader and ask for information, help in getting
- 38:19Speaker 1: information on somebody who was a potential political rival, again
- 38:23Speaker 1: inconsistent with what we do in the United States. Breaks
- 38:28Speaker 1: norms at a minimum, potentially breaks statutes, you know, at
- 38:32Speaker 1: its worst, and so it was. It's very disturbing. Now
- 38:34Speaker 1: it's interesting to be interesting to see how that investigation proceeds,
- 38:37Speaker 1: who ultimately is involved in it. How do you think
- 38:40Speaker 1: Donald Trump will be re elected? No, I really don't
- 38:43Speaker 1: think that he will be I think that I think
- 38:45Speaker 1: it's gonna be a fight. I mean, I think, you know,
- 38:47Speaker 1: he I'm not a poker guy. But what's the thing
- 38:49Speaker 1: he do a straight and he drew? I don't know
- 38:52Speaker 1: what a Yeah, there was some some description about he
- 38:56Speaker 1: did something in poker that's almost impossible to do, you know,
- 38:58Speaker 1: which is to win by winning in three states seventy
- 39:01Speaker 1: seven thousand votes. Um, you know, didn't win the electoral college.
- 39:05Speaker 1: I will guarantee this, the Democratic nominee for president will
- 39:09Speaker 1: get more of the popular vote than Donald Trump did
- 39:12Speaker 1: that too. The only way he wins is to win
- 39:14Speaker 1: in the electoral college. And I don't say it's a
- 39:16Speaker 1: guarantee that will win the electoral college. But I think
- 39:19Speaker 1: I'm pretty certain that we will. I don't think that
- 39:21Speaker 1: the American people, We're gonna have an energized Democratic um base.
- 39:26Speaker 1: You know, I think young people, people of color, the
- 39:28Speaker 1: Obama coalition, I think will reassert itself, and I think
- 39:32Speaker 1: the majority of the American people will reject that which
- 39:35Speaker 1: Trump has stood for these past by then these past
- 39:38Speaker 1: four years. Do you think Joe Biden is the best
- 39:39Speaker 1: bet for Democrats in twenty twenty. I think we've got
- 39:41Speaker 1: a bunch of good candidates. Um, I think he'd be good.
- 39:44Speaker 1: I think, you know, other people who are running would
- 39:46Speaker 1: be Um would be good. Well. I like like Kamala,
- 39:50Speaker 1: I like Corey, I like Game, I like call of them.
- 39:52Speaker 1: You know, I think any one of these Democrats is
- 39:54Speaker 1: better than Trump. You know of that, there's no There's
- 39:57Speaker 1: no question. And I like their programs. I think there'll
- 40:01Speaker 1: be more honorable. There'll be people of integrity in a
- 40:04Speaker 1: way that he has not been. So I think the
- 40:06Speaker 1: bar is Donald Trump Doe. No. I think, well again,
- 40:09Speaker 1: we'll get back to norms. You know, we'll have presidents,
- 40:11Speaker 1: will have a new president who would conduct himself or
- 40:13Speaker 1: herself in the way that we'd expect presidents to do
- 40:16Speaker 1: the way the way Barack Obama, did you know, do
- 40:17Speaker 1: you think it's time to get rid of the electoral college. Absolutely,
- 40:20Speaker 1: there's no reason to have an electoral college. I mean,
- 40:23Speaker 1: we're the only industrialized nation, the only advanced democracy that
- 40:26Speaker 1: elects people in that way. The vote ought to be
- 40:29Speaker 1: simply who gets the greatest number of votes, not like
- 40:32Speaker 1: who has the number who wins the greatest number of states.
- 40:34Speaker 1: Why isn't that really something that people are pushing for,
- 40:37Speaker 1: because I feel like that should be a big deal,
- 40:39Speaker 1: especially considering the last election. Well, people actually are. There's
- 40:42Speaker 1: this thing called you have to amend the Constitution if
- 40:44Speaker 1: you wanted to do it that way. But there's also
- 40:45Speaker 1: this effort called the Interstate Compact to do away with it.
- 40:48Speaker 1: So what would happen is that the states would cast
- 40:52Speaker 1: their electoral votes not for who won the state, but
- 40:55Speaker 1: who had the greatest number of national popular votes, and
- 40:58Speaker 1: in that way you would ultimately do away with the
- 41:00Speaker 1: electribal college. And I think so far you've got states
- 41:02Speaker 1: that total about one hundred and ninety six electrical votes.
- 41:05Speaker 1: You need to get states to total two hundred and
- 41:06Speaker 1: seventy votes and then that would hold electoral college would
- 41:09Speaker 1: still be there, who would no longer be in effect?
- 41:12Speaker 1: Meager a question about some of these candidates, ag holder,
- 41:15Speaker 1: why should black people trust Joe Biden? And the reason
- 41:17Speaker 1: I say that is because, you know, you look at
- 41:19Speaker 1: the eighty eight crack laws and the ninety four Crime Bill,
- 41:23Speaker 1: and you know, you listen to the things he said
- 41:24Speaker 1: about Barack Obama being the first mainstream African American that's bright,
- 41:28Speaker 1: articulate and clean, Like, why should we trust him other
- 41:31Speaker 1: than the fact he was Obama's vice president for HS Well,
- 41:33Speaker 1: I mean, there are things that he's got to certainly
- 41:35Speaker 1: explain in his record, But I think you've got to
- 41:38Speaker 1: look at the entirety of his career and make a
- 41:40Speaker 1: determination about whether or not you think that he would
- 41:42Speaker 1: be a president who would have the backs of communities
- 41:47Speaker 1: of color. I tend to think that he would. I've
- 41:50Speaker 1: known Joe Biden for twenty years or so. I've served
- 41:53Speaker 1: with him when he was vice president, and I think
- 41:57Speaker 1: that in spite of all the things that you've talked about,
- 41:59Speaker 1: which again a legitimate concerns and things he has to explain,
- 42:02Speaker 1: I think that he would be a person committed to
- 42:04Speaker 1: civil rights and committed to the interests of people in
- 42:06Speaker 1: the African American community, Hispanic community in a way that
- 42:10Speaker 1: you know, the president he served us in the way
- 42:11Speaker 1: that Barack Obama was. You won't even admit that the
- 42:14Speaker 1: niney four crime Bill was wrong though, and it caused
- 42:15Speaker 1: mass and coosceration. Well, I'd say the ninety four Crime
- 42:18Speaker 1: Bill didn't cause mass and cooceration. It certainly there's an
- 42:21Speaker 1: argument can make that it certainly accelerated it because it
- 42:24Speaker 1: had those provisions that help states build build prisons. There
- 42:28Speaker 1: also with some good preventive measures in the ninety four
- 42:32Speaker 1: crime build that people I think too often don't talk about.
- 42:34Speaker 1: But I think as a society, you know, we were
- 42:36Speaker 1: in a different place in ninety four, but crime was
- 42:39Speaker 1: a top three issue. We reacted wrongly to the way
- 42:42Speaker 1: in which we should deal with crime. We didn't focus
- 42:44Speaker 1: enough on the things that caused people to be involved
- 42:47Speaker 1: in crime. We didn't come up with enough measures to
- 42:49Speaker 1: help people get rehabilitated once they were in the system,
- 42:52Speaker 1: didn't make opportunities available to people once they were leaving
- 42:55Speaker 1: the system. We've learned a lot from that, So don't
- 42:58Speaker 1: I don't think that you know, he should certainly be
- 43:01Speaker 1: questioned about it, but I don't think we should put
- 43:03Speaker 1: on him. You know, the Black Caucus, it stood for
- 43:05Speaker 1: a lot of the things that are contained in the
- 43:07Speaker 1: in the ninety four crime Bill. It was the nation
- 43:09Speaker 1: was in a different place at that time, and we
- 43:11Speaker 1: have to make up for what we did back then.
- 43:13Speaker 1: I'm you know, I always think about the fact that
- 43:15Speaker 1: we had a crack academic back in the nineties and
- 43:18Speaker 1: we used it. We used the criminal justice system as
- 43:21Speaker 1: a way to deal with that. Now we're dealing with
- 43:22Speaker 1: the opioid prisis, and everybody says it's a public health
- 43:25Speaker 1: health problem, and that's what we should have been doing
- 43:27Speaker 1: back in the in the nineties. All Right, we got
- 43:29Speaker 1: more with Eric Holder. When we come back, don't move.
- 43:31Speaker 1: It's the breakfast club. Good morning, e j Envy, Angela Yee,
- 43:35Speaker 1: Charlomagne the guy we all to breakfast club. We're still
- 43:37Speaker 1: kicking it with Eric Holder, Attorney General Yee? Did you
- 43:40Speaker 1: face a lot of racism being the first black person
- 43:42Speaker 1: in your position as Attorney General? I certainly faced a
- 43:45Speaker 1: lot of um, you know, political heat. Took a lot
- 43:49Speaker 1: of political heat. And I always wondering in the back
- 43:51Speaker 1: of my mind how much of that was a function
- 43:53Speaker 1: of race and how much of it was just that
- 43:57Speaker 1: I was this kind of you know, loudmouth guy from
- 44:00Speaker 1: from New York. You know, um, the vehemence with which
- 44:03Speaker 1: people opposed Barack Obama and Eric Holder, I still try
- 44:08Speaker 1: to wrestle with how much of that wash was raised,
- 44:11Speaker 1: how much of that was just was just politics. They
- 44:13Speaker 1: saw in him change. They also saw in him, I think,
- 44:15Speaker 1: the future, and he's very disconcerting to think that, you know,
- 44:19Speaker 1: this guy represents what America is about to become, and
- 44:23Speaker 1: it means that we are not going to have power
- 44:25Speaker 1: in the way that we that we did. So I'm
- 44:26Speaker 1: not sure. I'm not sure how much it was racially
- 44:28Speaker 1: based and how much it was simply m definitely, Oh yeah,
- 44:33Speaker 1: now there's you know, there's certain insta I mean, when
- 44:35Speaker 1: I was at in In, I guess listening to Barack,
- 44:38Speaker 1: I guess was the State of the Union address, and
- 44:40Speaker 1: that guy stood up and said, you know, you lie,
- 44:42Speaker 1: but let's go back to that audio real quick. The
- 44:44Speaker 1: reforms I'm proposing would not apply to those who are
- 44:47Speaker 1: here illegally if he were a white man giving a
- 44:57Speaker 1: State of the Union address. Would a congressman have the
- 44:59Speaker 1: guts to stand up and say you lie at some level,
- 45:02Speaker 1: at some level, that guy, that guy had UM, you know,
- 45:06Speaker 1: I was subconscious, unconscious, whatever that was, that was there
- 45:09Speaker 1: was a racial thing going on there in that man's mind.
- 45:12Speaker 1: Let's talk Eric Gnat a little bit. Yeah, RFP to office,
- 45:15Speaker 1: RFU to him. And the officer who killed him was
- 45:17Speaker 1: Daniel Pantelo. He was fired, He was fired but not prosecuted.
- 45:22Speaker 1: And I was told that you told the family you
- 45:24Speaker 1: wouldn't let the case go to your next the next administration.
- 45:27Speaker 1: That true? Yeah, I mean, I, um, you know, the
- 45:30Speaker 1: case was really at the beginning stages when I was
- 45:33Speaker 1: an Attorney General. And I think it's it's disheartening to
- 45:37Speaker 1: me to see the way in which that case played out.
- 45:39Speaker 1: It took too long, um to resolve. Should have been
- 45:42Speaker 1: resolved during the Obama years, I think, Um, I think
- 45:45Speaker 1: you know there was the Civil Rights Division clearly wanted
- 45:47Speaker 1: to prosecute that case. I think the prosecutors up here
- 45:51Speaker 1: in Brooklyn perhaps didn't want to proceed. UM. Seemed to
- 45:54Speaker 1: me that there was a basis for that case to proceed.
- 45:56Speaker 1: Civil rights attorneys should have been allowed to prosecute the case.
- 46:00Speaker 1: It's one of the places that I think that this
- 46:02Speaker 1: administration in bar made a wrong determination. I mean, everybody
- 46:05Speaker 1: saw the tape, you know, and at a minimum, a
- 46:08Speaker 1: jury should have had the ability to consider all the
- 46:11Speaker 1: evidence and make a determination as to whether or not
- 46:13Speaker 1: Pantelios should have been held criminally responsible. There was nothing
- 46:16Speaker 1: y'all could have done well while I was there as
- 46:19Speaker 1: a g I mean, the case just wasn't formed, that
- 46:21Speaker 1: wasn't at a place where we could make a decision.
- 46:24Speaker 1: I think, you know, as I said, just to be frank,
- 46:26Speaker 1: I think it could have been resolved during the Obama years,
- 46:30Speaker 1: I think, but for whatever reason, you know, it was not.
- 46:33Speaker 1: It should have been. You did you feel like y'all
- 46:34Speaker 1: fell asleep at the will because y'all thought Hillary was
- 46:36Speaker 1: going to be the next president, so you thought, Okay,
- 46:38Speaker 1: if we don't handle it, then the next administration will.
- 46:41Speaker 1: But you didn't think the next administration would be this administration.
- 46:44Speaker 1: I don't know, you know, I don't know exactly what
- 46:45Speaker 1: happened within the Justice Department and why a decision wasn't
- 46:48Speaker 1: made um, but I think there was certainly sufficient amounts
- 46:52Speaker 1: of time for a decision to be made. It shouldn't
- 46:55Speaker 1: have been left for the next administration. You think up
- 46:59Speaker 1: until this point, the Nancy Pelosi and the House things
- 47:01Speaker 1: have been being cowardly when it comes to Donald Trump. No,
- 47:05Speaker 1: I don't think so. UM. I think that. Um. You know,
- 47:09Speaker 1: one of the things I would have talked about if
- 47:11Speaker 1: I'd run is that we got to be prepared to fight.
- 47:13Speaker 1: You know, this is not a time. If he's gonna
- 47:16Speaker 1: break norms, Um, and he has, this is not a
- 47:19Speaker 1: time to think that we can fight back in a
- 47:21Speaker 1: normal way. Um. We got to be prepared to be tough,
- 47:24Speaker 1: to fight to bring some New York to um this
- 47:27Speaker 1: this campaign, and um, we're part of New York. He's
- 47:33Speaker 1: from New York too, so he's ready to fight back.
- 47:35Speaker 1: We're part of New York. Hey, what part of New
- 47:41Speaker 1: York is not tough? You know? I mean, think about it, Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens,
- 47:46Speaker 1: you know, stat nil, I don't know about that. But
- 47:48Speaker 1: you know, all right, exactly that Sometimes think that's more
- 47:52Speaker 1: in New Jersey. But that's all right, that's fine. We'll
- 47:55Speaker 1: let him hang. We'll let him hang. Does it bother
- 47:57Speaker 1: you if you when you have a Google your name
- 47:59Speaker 1: and the other rick Hold that comes up that the
- 48:02Speaker 1: Nipsey Hustle. Does that bother the ish out of you? Yeah,
- 48:04Speaker 1: I remember the night that happened. My daughter sent me
- 48:06Speaker 1: a text and said, wow, did you see killed Nipsey Hustle?
- 48:09Speaker 1: You got your name? And that's thought she was kidding,
- 48:11Speaker 1: you know, And I woke up the next day and now, yeah,
- 48:14Speaker 1: I google my name and so all right, that's uh,
- 48:18Speaker 1: it's the other erd, you know. You know, I liked Nipsey.
- 48:21Speaker 1: He's not even another air Holder. He just like he's
- 48:23Speaker 1: just something else, you got to say, the other Eric Holder.
- 48:26Speaker 1: All right, yeah, just a guy whose name having to
- 48:28Speaker 1: be air Cold. Yeah. Yeah, it's uh, that's unfortunate. I
- 48:30Speaker 1: mean because Nipsey seemed to be a guy who was
- 48:32Speaker 1: on the verge of I think it was already in
- 48:34Speaker 1: the middle of doing some really positive things, and uh,
- 48:37Speaker 1: we need people like that, you know. Um we're looking
- 48:41Speaker 1: now at what the twenty fifth anniversary of you know,
- 48:42Speaker 1: Ready to Die, and I think about Biggie and as
- 48:45Speaker 1: good as he was, um, you know, the future that
- 48:49Speaker 1: was denied him as a result of same thing with
- 48:51Speaker 1: you know, with Tupac. Now you know, now Nipsey Nipsy,
- 48:54Speaker 1: So it's uh sad, It's kind of sad to think
- 48:56Speaker 1: about that. Do you follow everything that's going on in
- 48:58Speaker 1: hip hop? Talk about nowhere Coast rappers without mentioned in bigge?
- 49:01Speaker 1: Huh you just had New York it's the twenty fi.
- 49:07Speaker 1: I said Biggie first before I talked about Tupac. You know, now,
- 49:10Speaker 1: do you follow? Do you respect to the West Coast guys? Though?
- 49:12Speaker 1: You know, I like Dre, I like those guys. You
- 49:14Speaker 1: see what's happening with Takashi six nine and him on
- 49:17Speaker 1: a stand? Yeah? What what do you think about that?
- 49:19Speaker 1: What do you think about snitching? I'm just curious, Eric
- 49:21Speaker 1: don't remember? Yeah, remember I'm a prosecutor. No, you're curious.
- 49:25Speaker 1: You all call it. I call it a person's cooperating wits,
- 49:29Speaker 1: you know, I call it help? You know, thank you?
- 49:32Speaker 1: I mean, so, if the guy is trying to cut
- 49:34Speaker 1: a deal to you know, less than the amount of
- 49:36Speaker 1: time he's gonna spend in jail, and it's gonna hold
- 49:39Speaker 1: people responsible for doing things that were antisocial and you know,
- 49:42Speaker 1: harm people, you know, I think that's that's what er.
- 49:46Speaker 1: Do you think you'll get jail time? More jail time.
- 49:48Speaker 1: I should say, what do you think you'll get time
- 49:50Speaker 1: served as much he was talking? I don't know. I mean,
- 49:52Speaker 1: you know he'll he'll get less jail time I think
- 49:55Speaker 1: than he otherwise would have. Um, maybe you'll end up
- 49:58Speaker 1: in the Witness Protection program. What is that? Though? They
- 50:01Speaker 1: really like move you to Wyoming, and they move they
- 50:04Speaker 1: move you to places, give you a new name, give
- 50:06Speaker 1: you all kinds of you know, it's only like two years, right,
- 50:09Speaker 1: and then I can't talk about it an awful lot.
- 50:11Speaker 1: But I mean the amount of time you spend there
- 50:14Speaker 1: can be substantially greater than two years. You know, you
- 50:18Speaker 1: get a job because he can't work with the big
- 50:20Speaker 1: six nine on his forehead. He can get that removed. Yeah,
- 50:23Speaker 1: you know, tattoo remove. I got all mind taking off,
- 50:25Speaker 1: did you? I had a Mike Tyson thing. You know
- 50:28Speaker 1: this is gone now you don't see. So they can
- 50:31Speaker 1: change your whole identity and image and everything but your image.
- 50:34Speaker 1: But they can certainly give you, you know, um, new
- 50:37Speaker 1: birth certificate, new social Security number, all kinds of stuff
- 50:41Speaker 1: to me. And then you do you have to still pay.
- 50:42Speaker 1: It looks like he's like, hey, I'm thinking, if you
- 50:48Speaker 1: if you have debt. Do you still have to pay
- 50:49Speaker 1: that money with the new Social Security number? Well, yeah,
- 50:52Speaker 1: that's that's why there there has been that issue. I mean,
- 50:54Speaker 1: you know, if you know somebody ten thousand dollars and
- 50:56Speaker 1: then suddenly PuF, you know you're you're gone. Um, what
- 50:59Speaker 1: is that? What is that person? That's a good way
- 51:01Speaker 1: to get out of student loan. All you students out
- 51:08Speaker 1: there to join the Witness Protection the program. This is
- 51:10Speaker 1: the arag holder student relief program. Joining the join the
- 51:15Speaker 1: Witness Protection program. Everybody's talking about canceling student. I got
- 51:18Speaker 1: a new way of doing it. Right. There we go,
- 51:22Speaker 1: There we go. My final question, how does this Donald
- 51:24Speaker 1: Trump saga in? I think it ends with his defeat
- 51:28Speaker 1: in twenty twenty or his impeachment um and conviction. I
- 51:32Speaker 1: don't I don't take off the table the possibility of
- 51:34Speaker 1: a conviction. I certainly think he's going to be impeached.
- 51:36Speaker 1: I think that that's certainly going to happen. History will
- 51:39Speaker 1: be very unkind um to this president. Yes, it will
- 51:43Speaker 1: be seen as a corrupt administration that you know, really
- 51:48Speaker 1: strained the alliances that we've had with our closest neighbors,
- 51:54Speaker 1: with allies we've had since World War Two. Um, he's
- 51:57Speaker 1: favored the special interest over the people. He's put climate
- 52:00Speaker 1: um at risk. He's divided the nation. He's played race
- 52:05Speaker 1: for um political gain. History is not gonna be kind
- 52:08Speaker 1: to uh to. Donald Trump's gonna make for a great movie.
- 52:10Speaker 1: Tell brother in Obama about the rights to it with
- 52:12Speaker 1: his Netflix do there we go? Well, Eric Holder, we
- 52:14Speaker 1: appreciate you for joining us. Well, it's good to be
- 52:16Speaker 1: here with y'all. Thank you so much. Sara Colda, Get
- 52:19Speaker 1: out of vote. That's right, get out and vote. It's
- 52:21Speaker 1: the breakfast Club. Good morning morning. Everybody's DJ MVY. Angela Ye,
- 52:25Speaker 1: Charlemagne the guy. We are the breakfast Club. Let's get
- 52:27Speaker 1: to the rumors. Let's talk Charlemagne the Guard. What this
- 52:31Speaker 1: is the Ruble report with Angela Breast Club. So listen
- 52:40Speaker 1: that last week we reported a story about Nick Cannon
- 52:43Speaker 1: doing a talk show, and Charlemagne had this to say.
- 52:48Speaker 1: I just said, I don't think that he's gonna stick
- 52:50Speaker 1: around and do morning radio if you get to daytime
- 52:52Speaker 1: talk show. All right, Well, Nick Cannon responded to this.
- 52:56Speaker 1: He's just doing what he's supposed to do. He's playing
- 52:59Speaker 1: the position of being skeptical seeing both sides of it.
- 53:03Speaker 1: And everyone knows that. You know, I do a lot
- 53:05Speaker 1: of things, but I'm here to prove everybody wrong. I
- 53:09Speaker 1: love radio, I love This Morning Joe, and I'm not
- 53:12Speaker 1: going anywhere regardless of what jobs that I get, because
- 53:14Speaker 1: of you guys in my family. What he says, it's
- 53:16Speaker 1: a bad idea. I don't. I don't know he's referring to.
- 53:19Speaker 1: But I think what he's trying to say is that
- 53:22Speaker 1: I'm spread thin. That's how I move. I ain't gonna
- 53:25Speaker 1: talk about it. I don't make analysis. I just make moves.
- 53:27Speaker 1: I actually said, this is why you don't hire Nick
- 53:29Speaker 1: Cannon to do morning radio. But I'm not. I'm not
- 53:34Speaker 1: a hater. I think NIX people in the Nick might
- 53:36Speaker 1: have said I was a hater that we just played
- 53:38Speaker 1: well on his Instagram, he said, Dad, you are his
- 53:41Speaker 1: hater friends? He said, how many of us have them?
- 53:43Speaker 1: New terms? Should we call hater friends? Hate your friends,
- 53:47Speaker 1: he says, or freighters, which is friendly haters? He said,
- 53:51Speaker 1: Charlemagne and many others in my life that I love
- 53:53Speaker 1: and deal with daily or constantly feel me for greatness.
- 53:56Speaker 1: I just want to say thank you and hold my
- 53:58Speaker 1: beer Well. First of all, mckelvy aka Charlemagne and God
- 54:01Speaker 1: is far from Hayter. I root for my folks, especially
- 54:04Speaker 1: black men in media, but I'm also a realist. Okay.
- 54:07Speaker 1: So to be clear, all I'm simply saying is I
- 54:09Speaker 1: don't think Nick Cannon is gonna stick around and do
- 54:11Speaker 1: morning radio. We've seen the good brother Nick Cannon have
- 54:14Speaker 1: his own morning show before. Nick us to do mornings
- 54:16Speaker 1: on ninety two three now here in New York back
- 54:18Speaker 1: in twenty ten. He did that for like two years.
- 54:20Speaker 1: Yeah when we started, he was he was all radio
- 54:22Speaker 1: when we started. Yeah, so he did it from like
- 54:23Speaker 1: twenty ten to twenty twelve. Um. And so there's no
- 54:26Speaker 1: hate when I say Knick Nack gonna stick around and
- 54:27Speaker 1: to do morning radio. It's just based off his history
- 54:29Speaker 1: in radio. I just don't think he is. I just
- 54:30Speaker 1: tell Nick, I think Nick's just gonna go with the check.
- 54:32Speaker 1: Wherever the check goes, I think that's where Nick gonna go.
- 54:35Speaker 1: But his co host was like, oh, why I defend Charlemagne?
- 54:38Speaker 1: Why are you defending him? And he's so fis. It
- 54:42Speaker 1: doesn't mean everybody has those type of friends that are
- 54:47Speaker 1: always like you think you shine it. Are you balling? Now?
- 54:52Speaker 1: You got a little nice little car. They put a
- 54:54Speaker 1: little in front of everything. Little car got a new
- 54:57Speaker 1: little job. Charlemagne's now Charlomagne has been issued on Nick
- 55:03Speaker 1: Cannon every time, every time Nick Cannon puts out the
- 55:05Speaker 1: record you hit you, I want you to stop. I
- 55:07Speaker 1: want you to stop for one second and think about
- 55:09Speaker 1: what you just said. That is not bashing, nor is
- 55:11Speaker 1: it hate. The only thing I've ever spoken on when
- 55:13Speaker 1: it comes to Nick Cannon, I guess in the negative
- 55:15Speaker 1: fashion is when he raps. That is true. Now raise
- 55:18Speaker 1: your hand if you like Nick cannons wraps in this room, Okay,
- 55:22Speaker 1: drapmost is the only person, all right, out of out
- 55:24Speaker 1: of one, two, three, four or five six people. So
- 55:27Speaker 1: is everybody who didn't raise the hand hating? I know,
- 55:31Speaker 1: but I did like one song. No you didn't. I
- 55:34Speaker 1: did what song? We don't play right now? We don't
- 55:37Speaker 1: we don't play that? Is it there? Please let it
- 55:39Speaker 1: be in there, Please let it be in there. It's
- 55:41Speaker 1: not there. Damn it. Man. This is a very terrible
- 55:44Speaker 1: produced show. I just want to I've been we should
- 55:45Speaker 1: have had it up, but hey, I can't call it
- 55:47Speaker 1: terribly producer Nick can't didn't want to show has better.
- 55:49Speaker 1: Producers want to throw that out right, It was Jiggolo.
- 55:51Speaker 1: I like Jigglo. You like Jiggolo. We all like Jiggolo.
- 55:54Speaker 1: It's not even in the system calling for stuff that's
- 55:56Speaker 1: not there. Maybe it's Envy's fault. Maybe if you'd told
- 55:58Speaker 1: the producers they had, they would have had to show
- 56:01Speaker 1: this is not this is not my my thing. I
- 56:03Speaker 1: don't do. You have to tell the produces what you want, Envy,
- 56:07Speaker 1: all right now. Charlemagne also spoke to Kevin Love about
- 56:10Speaker 1: mental health and this has had his conversation with the
- 56:13Speaker 1: opposite of happiness is hopelessness. Hopelessness is, like to say,
- 56:17Speaker 1: like at the root of anxiety and mental illness depression.
- 56:22Speaker 1: This is not an overstatement. Chronic anxiety is a crisis
- 56:25Speaker 1: of hope. It is the fear of a failed future,
- 56:28Speaker 1: whereas depression is a crisis of hope because it is
- 56:32Speaker 1: the belief in a meaningless future. Oh, A lot of
- 56:35Speaker 1: that sentiment came from a book titled Everything Is That
- 56:39Speaker 1: Was That? Ninety two? Wild last week? Right, great conversation
- 56:41Speaker 1: about mental health. He also speaks about happiness. I felt
- 56:45Speaker 1: like I had no real hope in my future. I
- 56:49Speaker 1: had blinders on. Sometimes when you're in it like that,
- 56:51Speaker 1: you just don't feel it. You don't see it until
- 56:54Speaker 1: somebody has to like smack you across the head and say, hey, listen,
- 56:56Speaker 1: like everybody's seeing this. I happened to read like a
- 56:59Speaker 1: cheap on myself, so I always wear it. But that's
- 57:02Speaker 1: kind of what I'm getting at us. Ever since I
- 57:04Speaker 1: was young, you know, it's been like a weighted vest
- 57:07Speaker 1: I can even feel it now. I wake up every
- 57:09Speaker 1: single day, uh, and make a choice that I'm going
- 57:11Speaker 1: to change the relationship that I have with with you know,
- 57:14Speaker 1: mental illness and depression and anxiety and so on and
- 57:16Speaker 1: so forth. Dropping a clue bump from my guy Kevin Love,
- 57:19Speaker 1: that's my god, man, did you ever get down to
- 57:21Speaker 1: the root of it why he feels that way when
- 57:23Speaker 1: he wakes up his anxiety? Yeah, and him not being
- 57:26Speaker 1: necessary happy and sometimes depressed. I think he's figuring it
- 57:29Speaker 1: out now. You know. It's a process. You know, I
- 57:30Speaker 1: think that anxiety is like any any anything else in life,
- 57:34Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. I don't know if you
- 57:36Speaker 1: actually ever figure out what it is. I think you
- 57:38Speaker 1: might know your triggers. You know what I'm saying now.
- 57:41Speaker 1: You mentioned the other day that sometimes you depressed. What
- 57:42Speaker 1: what makes you depressed? This show jazz? Let me ask
- 57:46Speaker 1: you a question. Do you like Nick Cannon? A rapper? Microphone?
- 57:57Speaker 1: JA say this if answered this one simple question that
- 58:00Speaker 1: Mic is on Jeff, Do you like Nick Cannon as
- 58:02Speaker 1: a rapper? I do not like Nick Cannon as a rapper,
- 58:04Speaker 1: but he's great at everything else. He is an amazing actor,
- 58:07Speaker 1: an amazing businessman. Absolutely. I just want to throw that
- 58:10Speaker 1: out there, so that's not hate. No, no, no, you
- 58:15Speaker 1: like jiggolo. I did not love Nickcannon as a person
- 58:19Speaker 1: and a businessman, not as a rapper. All right, Well
- 58:22Speaker 1: that is your rumor report, and that's not hate, all right, Charlemagne,
- 58:26Speaker 1: it's not bashing him since day one, Leonard, Yes, who
- 58:29Speaker 1: are giving that donkey to you? Four? After the hour?
- 58:32Speaker 1: I would like to give a donkey of the day
- 58:34Speaker 1: to the four people who decided to escape from Ohio
- 58:36Speaker 1: jail because I don't know what the hell they wanted
- 58:37Speaker 1: to escape for, but we'll talk about it, all right.
- 58:39Speaker 1: We'll get into that next Keep a lock this to
- 58:41Speaker 1: breakfast club. Good morning. Let me be a dusty because
- 58:43Speaker 1: right now you want some real It's time for Donkey
- 58:47Speaker 1: of the day. So if we ever feel I need
- 58:49Speaker 1: to be any man with the heat, did she getting
- 58:54Speaker 1: I had become donkey of the day to practice club bitches? Yeah?
- 59:00Speaker 1: Doc here today from Monday, September thirtieth, goes to Ford,
- 59:03Speaker 1: North Carolina men named Lawrence Lee, Troy McDaniel, Christopher Clemente,
- 59:07Speaker 1: and Brian Martin. Now, these guys were all locked up
- 59:11Speaker 1: in an Ohio jail. No, they're not North Carolina men. Yes,
- 59:14Speaker 1: they're from Ohio. I'm bugging yes, But yeah, they were
- 59:16Speaker 1: all locked up in an Ohio jail, and they escape
- 59:18Speaker 1: from that jail Sunday morning after overpowering two female guards
- 59:22Speaker 1: with a homemade knife. I don't know why they let
- 59:24Speaker 1: the police officers in this jail have weapons that arnist
- 59:28Speaker 1: Strong his homemade nihs But whatever, Now, why did these
- 59:31Speaker 1: guys escape jail? If you are escaping jail, then you
- 59:34Speaker 1: must be facing a life sentences or the death penalty.
- 59:36Speaker 1: Right to take that kind of chance, that kind of risk,
- 59:39Speaker 1: they'll have more charges to your docket. To face more
- 59:41Speaker 1: jail time for attempting to escape, Then you must be
- 59:44Speaker 1: charged for crimes that are gonna put you under the
- 59:46Speaker 1: jail forever. Right wrong, Okay. Lee was being held on
- 59:50Speaker 1: a charge of identity for aud Clemente on a charge
- 59:52Speaker 1: of aiding and abetting another and committing a crime, and
- 59:54Speaker 1: Martin on charges of failure to appear an escape. It's
- 59:58Speaker 1: unclear what McDaniel was being held on. Let's break this down.
- 1:00:01Speaker 1: Ohio identity theft law characterizes the crime as a felony
- 1:00:06Speaker 1: punishable by one to eleven years in prison, nothing not doable,
- 1:00:11Speaker 1: third degree felony nine months ten years in prison and
- 1:00:14Speaker 1: a ten thousand dollars fine for fraud resulting in seventy five,
- 1:00:18Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty thousand dollars in losses aiding and
- 1:00:20Speaker 1: a betting. A charge of accessory after the fact is
- 1:00:23Speaker 1: punishable as follows up to a five thousand dollars fine
- 1:00:26Speaker 1: and are up to one year in jail if you
- 1:00:28Speaker 1: are convicted of a misdemeanor up to three years in jail.
- 1:00:31Speaker 1: If you are convicted of a felony for failure to
- 1:00:33Speaker 1: appear in court, the penalty as a fine of up
- 1:00:35Speaker 1: to ten thousand dollars in three years in county jail.
- 1:00:38Speaker 1: Failure to appear may also be considered contemptive court, which,
- 1:00:42Speaker 1: similar to a criminal conviction, can result in both fines
- 1:00:45Speaker 1: in jail time. None of these consequences for said crime
- 1:00:48Speaker 1: sound escape from jailworthy, all right. In fact of the
- 1:00:50Speaker 1: whole thing, a police officer with a homemade knife and
- 1:00:52Speaker 1: escaping from jail, We'll probably landing you more time than
- 1:00:55Speaker 1: any of those crimes you committed. But no need for
- 1:00:57Speaker 1: anyone to worry, because they have already been caught. Let's
- 1:01:00Speaker 1: go to WRC NBC four for a report to hear
- 1:01:02Speaker 1: what happened. Police took three of the suspects in a
- 1:01:05Speaker 1: custody at a hotel outside of Rally around two this morning.
- 1:01:08Speaker 1: Investigators found the fugitives in the parking lot and three
- 1:01:11Speaker 1: they're surrendered peacefully. Now that the suspects who escaped our
- 1:01:14Speaker 1: thirty year old Troy McDaniel Junior, forty year old brind Martin,
- 1:01:18Speaker 1: twenty four year old Christopher clemente In, twenty nine year
- 1:01:20Speaker 1: old Lawrence Lee the third. We know that Lee is
- 1:01:23Speaker 1: still on the rundays this morning. We're working to confirm
- 1:01:25Speaker 1: all of the people who have been apprehended down The
- 1:01:27Speaker 1: Sheriff's office says the four inmates all escape Sunday morning
- 1:01:30Speaker 1: from the Gallea County jail, and they likely had to
- 1:01:32Speaker 1: help from at least one person on the outside. Now,
- 1:01:35Speaker 1: the men overpowered two female corrections officers with a homemade
- 1:01:39Speaker 1: weapon and then stole one of the officers car keys
- 1:01:42Speaker 1: and drove it about a block where another car was
- 1:01:44Speaker 1: waiting for them down. The sheriff says that the jail
- 1:01:46Speaker 1: cells there don't lock to make more room for inmates.
- 1:01:49Speaker 1: He also acknowledges that it desperately needs some improvements. Now.
- 1:01:53Speaker 1: The US Marshall's Office is offering twenty five hundred dollars
- 1:01:56Speaker 1: per inmate for information leading to the arrests. And we
- 1:01:58Speaker 1: still know that Lawrence the third is still on the
- 1:02:01Speaker 1: run this morning. So you can cock this whole plan
- 1:02:04Speaker 1: to escape from jail only to get caught in a
- 1:02:06Speaker 1: red roof and in North Carolina. Not to mention, only
- 1:02:08Speaker 1: one of y'all had the bright idea to separate from
- 1:02:11Speaker 1: the pack. First thing you should do in situations like
- 1:02:13Speaker 1: this is split up. But no, you three wanted to
- 1:02:16Speaker 1: go to the red roof and in North Carolina with
- 1:02:18Speaker 1: each other to have big fun. Now, if there were
- 1:02:21Speaker 1: no women with y'all in this red roof, and whatever
- 1:02:24Speaker 1: you were doing in that hotel, you could have been
- 1:02:26Speaker 1: doing in jail. Okay, I've stated a red roof in before.
- 1:02:29Speaker 1: I've also been in jail. Not much difference other than
- 1:02:32Speaker 1: the whole freedom thing. All right. The marl of this
- 1:02:34Speaker 1: story is Law twenty nine and the forty eight Laws
- 1:02:36Speaker 1: of power. Planning all the way to the end. The
- 1:02:38Speaker 1: ending is everything, planning all the way to it, taking
- 1:02:40Speaker 1: into account all the possible consequences, obstacles, and twist of fortune.
- 1:02:44Speaker 1: By planning to the end, you will not be overwhelmed
- 1:02:46Speaker 1: by circumstances, and you will know when to stop. These
- 1:02:49Speaker 1: four guys who escape from this jail in Ohio should
- 1:02:51Speaker 1: have stopped that. Hey, bro, let's plan a way to
- 1:02:54Speaker 1: escape this joint. Please give Lawrence Lee, Troy McDaniel, Christopher Clemente,
- 1:02:58Speaker 1: and Brian Martin the sweet sons of the Hamletones. Oh
- 1:03:01Speaker 1: now you are gee the da gee, oh the day?
- 1:03:14Speaker 1: Ye all right, just now was a good time to
- 1:03:19Speaker 1: play a little quick game of guess what race to days?
- 1:03:25Speaker 1: All right? Four guys escape from an Ohio jail. Farther
- 1:03:29Speaker 1: state gout was North Carolina, Red roofing, not a stitcher
- 1:03:34Speaker 1: va giant insight, DJ envy, guess what race to days?
- 1:03:41Speaker 1: It's a tough one. Really yeah, I don't think they
- 1:03:44Speaker 1: were all the same race. I mean I think Martin
- 1:03:47Speaker 1: was white, Clemente was Latino, Troy was black, and Lawrence
- 1:03:51Speaker 1: was white. Really yeah, that's what I think, Stephen, Stephen
- 1:03:55Speaker 1: the white demon. You wanna get in on this. Four
- 1:03:59Speaker 1: guys escape from all yo jail. Far as they get
- 1:04:02Speaker 1: was North Carolina, red roof and not a stitch of
- 1:04:04Speaker 1: a giant insight. And they had a guitar. Yeah, you
- 1:04:08Speaker 1: didn't say I have to get to a part. No,
- 1:04:10Speaker 1: I didn't have a guitar. I know the answer here,
- 1:04:12Speaker 1: look wanting me to stay here? Oh man, I don't
- 1:04:14Speaker 1: want you to tell me what's on your heart. Um. Yeah,
- 1:04:20Speaker 1: that's a lot of white collar crime there. But that
- 1:04:22Speaker 1: that drug trafficking one's definitely a Latino. That's what I said.
- 1:04:26Speaker 1: That was receiving stolen property. That could be black or white.
- 1:04:37Speaker 1: Clemente Latino, Troy fell into a pan. And be honest
- 1:04:42Speaker 1: with you, I don't know what they are now. I
- 1:04:44Speaker 1: thought all of them was white, But y'all got me
- 1:04:45Speaker 1: thinking the Clemente might be Yeah, you ever heard a
- 1:04:49Speaker 1: white president Clemente? They picked up remote, I don't know.
- 1:04:52Speaker 1: Let's see white, white white the second one. Look Latino,
- 1:04:58Speaker 1: it's a white Latino. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's clement Man
- 1:05:03Speaker 1: got the ponytown. Yeah yeah. See. All right, okay, we're
- 1:05:10Speaker 1: just gonna chalk this up to call Cassidy though. We're
- 1:05:12Speaker 1: not gonna drag the Latinos into this one. All right,
- 1:05:15Speaker 1: all right, all right. When we come back, Forest Whittaker
- 1:05:17Speaker 1: will be joining us. We'll kick it with Forrest whit
- 1:05:19Speaker 1: because it don't move. It's the breakfast Cloak of morning,
- 1:05:21Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club pointing. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela yee,
- 1:05:28Speaker 1: Charlemagne the God. We are the Breakfast Club. We got
- 1:05:31Speaker 1: a special guest in the building, Sir, Forest Whittaker. Good
- 1:05:34Speaker 1: to be here, welcome. Now are we actually talking to Forest?
- 1:05:37Speaker 1: This is brother Ken. You know that's not really people
- 1:05:40Speaker 1: talking about that on the net, but it really is
- 1:05:41Speaker 1: two pitches of me. God, damn idiot. I was like,
- 1:05:45Speaker 1: y'all look all right, So y'all really don't look that
- 1:05:53Speaker 1: much alike? No, really, no, got you? Well, moving right along,
- 1:05:56Speaker 1: all right, let's talk to God. Father of Harlem. Yeah,
- 1:06:00Speaker 1: that tell us about this flay. We followed Bumpy Johnson
- 1:06:02Speaker 1: who comes out of prison, goes back into Harlem to
- 1:06:05Speaker 1: be able to try to reclaim his territories. He's been
- 1:06:07Speaker 1: in way for about eleven years. We get a chance
- 1:06:10Speaker 1: to see him and his family. You know, was Ilfinessa
- 1:06:15Speaker 1: plays my wife and you know, just him like rebuilding
- 1:06:17Speaker 1: his life and rebuilding instruction of fighting against the Italian Mob,
- 1:06:20Speaker 1: which is done body Vincent Dinafio and Chaz polmin Terry
- 1:06:23Speaker 1: and fossil Vino because of the guys who were against
- 1:06:26Speaker 1: And I think what's interesting about it is, uh it
- 1:06:28Speaker 1: deals with like crime in the civil rights movement because
- 1:06:31Speaker 1: it talks about the relationship between Bumpy and Malcolm Max,
- 1:06:34Speaker 1: which is I think is a little known relationship. How
- 1:06:36Speaker 1: do you do your your homework and prepare for this
- 1:06:38Speaker 1: movie here? You know, I started reading stuff first just
- 1:06:41Speaker 1: to try to understand what the time was understanding history.
- 1:06:44Speaker 1: Then I started interviewing guys too, Like it was a
- 1:06:47Speaker 1: couple of guys in Harlem and older guys that was
- 1:06:49Speaker 1: working with Bumping when they were in the mob. You know,
- 1:06:51Speaker 1: um named Chisholm and June bug and I and a
- 1:06:57Speaker 1: black Mob gotta have a Joan Buck. He was a
- 1:06:59Speaker 1: great guy, really helped me out. And then the guy
- 1:07:02Speaker 1: that the professor Smalls was like he took over the
- 1:07:04Speaker 1: mosque after Malcolm. He was like explaining to me a
- 1:07:06Speaker 1: lot of different things, and and then just trying to
- 1:07:09Speaker 1: understand the political climate of the day because you know
- 1:07:11Speaker 1: Adam Clayton is in there too. You know, Nigel Thatch
- 1:07:14Speaker 1: is amazing. I want to say, Nigel thatches. Malcolm Max
- 1:07:17Speaker 1: is like crazy good. John Hallo x Mesito plays Adam
- 1:07:21Speaker 1: Clayton Pollan. He does an amazing, amazing job. How do
- 1:07:24Speaker 1: you relate to the story a bumpy Johnson like you
- 1:07:26Speaker 1: personally when you look at that particular struggle, how do
- 1:07:29Speaker 1: you relate to it? I mean I can relate to
- 1:07:32Speaker 1: like trying to excel and trying to succeed and the
- 1:07:35Speaker 1: things that block you in your way and what you
- 1:07:37Speaker 1: need to do. I think that when watched the show itself,
- 1:07:40Speaker 1: I mean, it doesn't feel like dated because he's dealing
- 1:07:44Speaker 1: with a lot of issues that we're having right now.
- 1:07:45Speaker 1: It's dealing with like opiate crisis, you know what I mean,
- 1:07:48Speaker 1: what's going on with what's happening in the community. It's stilling,
- 1:07:51Speaker 1: it's dealing with a lot of like polarization of black
- 1:07:55Speaker 1: white or you know, this happening in the country is
- 1:07:59Speaker 1: dealing with like you'll see like as a protest, going
- 1:08:02Speaker 1: about the human rights issues and stuff with Lease, what
- 1:08:04Speaker 1: they're doing with the community and to the brothers in
- 1:08:06Speaker 1: the community and profiling to all these different things. For me,
- 1:08:09Speaker 1: I relate to. It's it's immediate, it's real. You seem
- 1:08:11Speaker 1: like such a gentle giant would like, how did you
- 1:08:14Speaker 1: get into the role of a gangster? You know, I've
- 1:08:16Speaker 1: played a lot of fun I've played a few Oh yeah, idiot,
- 1:08:19Speaker 1: I mean forget it. Yeah, after I was like, I
- 1:08:22Speaker 1: don't know, yeah, I just you know, you just kind
- 1:08:25Speaker 1: of like try to figure out that we've heard what
- 1:08:26Speaker 1: the what motivates the person and how they behave things
- 1:08:29Speaker 1: just happened in their lives, and then slowly something starts
- 1:08:31Speaker 1: to happen and it comes a lot the character starts
- 1:08:33Speaker 1: to come alive. What do you tap into though, Like
- 1:08:35Speaker 1: you got some old trauma or something that that makes
- 1:08:37Speaker 1: you dark. I don't you know, I use I use
- 1:08:41Speaker 1: my own stuff for my past, and I use my imagination,
- 1:08:44Speaker 1: you know, and then something happens in the universe where
- 1:08:47Speaker 1: you start to force all that information inside of you,
- 1:08:49Speaker 1: and then the transformation starts to happen on its own.
- 1:08:51Speaker 1: How you get that get out? You though? How do
- 1:08:52Speaker 1: you get it out once you do it? I'm not
- 1:08:54Speaker 1: sure you get it all out, you know, you get
- 1:08:57Speaker 1: parts of it stay with you as if you like
- 1:08:58Speaker 1: living a new life again, like you're reincarnating again. You
- 1:09:02Speaker 1: remember some things, you know, like now you've set this
- 1:09:04Speaker 1: phrase a certain way for a long time, and then
- 1:09:06Speaker 1: from the you know, for your life, you start seeing
- 1:09:08Speaker 1: the phrase a different way. You start seeing something differently,
- 1:09:10Speaker 1: but about the people around you. But like enough, Dad,
- 1:09:12Speaker 1: all right, Dad, Like let's get out. You're not bumpy today.
- 1:09:15Speaker 1: And I had that when I was working on the
- 1:09:17Speaker 1: Last King, when I would talk to them from Africa
- 1:09:18Speaker 1: and I would be on the phone and I would
- 1:09:20Speaker 1: be not even realizing I'm using kind but maybe God, yeah,
- 1:09:26Speaker 1: exactly exactly, go on, dad, stop. But it's better to
- 1:09:30Speaker 1: stay in the road or when you're when you're actually shooting,
- 1:09:32Speaker 1: it's better just to always stay in that zone. Having
- 1:09:34Speaker 1: not to your kids. Yeah, if you're playing like certain
- 1:09:38Speaker 1: kind of characters that require it. Everybody, every character doesn't
- 1:09:40Speaker 1: require you to do that. You're always should part of
- 1:09:42Speaker 1: you is always sort of in that space, but you're
- 1:09:46Speaker 1: not necessarily fully consumed. In the case of like The
- 1:09:48Speaker 1: Last King or something, that was something where even when
- 1:09:50Speaker 1: I was dreaming, I was sort of dreaming as a person.
- 1:09:53Speaker 1: It was kind of twenty four seven. So that's probably
- 1:09:56Speaker 1: the hardest one to get get out of you. That
- 1:09:58Speaker 1: was a tough one. Wasn't this hard? You know? It's
- 1:10:00Speaker 1: harder like when I did a movie a long time
- 1:10:02Speaker 1: ago called Bird about Charlie Parker. That was harder for me. Actually,
- 1:10:05Speaker 1: it was more it was difficult to get the emotional feelings.
- 1:10:08Speaker 1: He was a heroin attic and I like went to
- 1:10:11Speaker 1: like some really dark places to try to understand like
- 1:10:13Speaker 1: how he was feeling and stay with me for a minute.
- 1:10:16Speaker 1: And you know, like the other one to stay with
- 1:10:17Speaker 1: me for a minute too, is like when you play
- 1:10:19Speaker 1: characters have mental health issues, schizophrenia, bipolar issues, those kind
- 1:10:25Speaker 1: of things are really difficult as they are in real life.
- 1:10:27Speaker 1: But you start playing around with your neurology in your mind,
- 1:10:30Speaker 1: then you sometimes thinks a while to get it to
- 1:10:33Speaker 1: like realign itself. Two things like Oscar has mattered to you,
- 1:10:35Speaker 1: Like when you're playing a role, do you and people
- 1:10:37Speaker 1: are like, this is gonna earn him an Oscar? Or
- 1:10:40Speaker 1: do you think about those things? Now that's a mistake,
- 1:10:43Speaker 1: you know. I think you have to figure out what
- 1:10:45Speaker 1: you want to do and why and why you want
- 1:10:46Speaker 1: to say it, how much you want to give them
- 1:10:47Speaker 1: that's it, and try to do something special and those
- 1:10:50Speaker 1: things happen. That's a bonus or some sort if you
- 1:10:54Speaker 1: if you strive for it. A lot of times you
- 1:10:56Speaker 1: missed it. The story on the way so after you
- 1:10:58Speaker 1: did Last King of Scotland and watch it and say, man,
- 1:11:01Speaker 1: that might be Oscar worthy. People were saying that, you know,
- 1:11:05Speaker 1: when I'm working on the on the parts, So did
- 1:11:07Speaker 1: you personally feel like I gotta be honest, that's that's
- 1:11:10Speaker 1: those are not drivers for me, just forwards and I
- 1:11:12Speaker 1: drives for me. I've been I mean, it's he's just
- 1:11:14Speaker 1: say I guess. I mean, I've been fortunate, I've been
- 1:11:16Speaker 1: acknowledged for my work and you've got one on a
- 1:11:19Speaker 1: lot of different things. But that's that's not driver for me.
- 1:11:22Speaker 1: My My thing was, like you know, every time I
- 1:11:24Speaker 1: play a character, I get to explore, like the human condition,
- 1:11:26Speaker 1: that I get to understand another person and understand how
- 1:11:29Speaker 1: they connect to me, and that that was what I
- 1:11:31Speaker 1: was doing all along. I've been doing that since I started.
- 1:11:34Speaker 1: That's the reason why I started doing it, and I've
- 1:11:35Speaker 1: been and whenever I step aside from not doing that,
- 1:11:38Speaker 1: then something goes wrong. But what about when you just
- 1:11:40Speaker 1: when you take a step back and you look at
- 1:11:42Speaker 1: you just staying at that oscar at the house and
- 1:11:43Speaker 1: be like, well, I'm a black man who want to
- 1:11:45Speaker 1: ask her for best acting like it's not a lot
- 1:11:48Speaker 1: although ask her so white. H Yeah, I gotta be honest.
- 1:11:53Speaker 1: I really don't think about it at all. Wow, what
- 1:11:56Speaker 1: are some stories that you feel like haven't been told yet?
- 1:11:58Speaker 1: They need to be told. I think it was some
- 1:12:00Speaker 1: more films to try to make you understand issues with
- 1:12:02Speaker 1: mental health and stuff and how it affects us in
- 1:12:05Speaker 1: the community and how it affects as a people itself.
- 1:12:08Speaker 1: You know, what do you do the statementally healthy? I
- 1:12:10Speaker 1: do meditate, Um, I do do some movement, you know.
- 1:12:15Speaker 1: Sometimes I haven't been doing much lush slash a couple
- 1:12:18Speaker 1: of years. Normally I do. Yeah, now, Swiss Speeds is
- 1:12:22Speaker 1: the musical director of the series. Now, how did he
- 1:12:24Speaker 1: get involved with the project? I did. I did reach
- 1:12:26Speaker 1: out to him and speak to him and out and
- 1:12:27Speaker 1: see if he would be if he would be willing
- 1:12:29Speaker 1: to commit to something like this because he said he
- 1:12:30Speaker 1: usually doesn't do this, he said it takes too much time. Yeah,
- 1:12:33Speaker 1: he really stepped up big time. I mean, did so
- 1:12:36Speaker 1: many amazing songs, put together this writing lab and had
- 1:12:38Speaker 1: everybody together and bringing different artists in so this. You know,
- 1:12:42Speaker 1: most great portions of the songs were written for the
- 1:12:44Speaker 1: film itself. But I did get a chance to go
- 1:12:47Speaker 1: up and watch a lot. I was up there quite
- 1:12:49Speaker 1: a bit. How did you get to check out and
- 1:12:51Speaker 1: meet I didn't see rich Z, you know, Buddy h
- 1:12:56Speaker 1: Di Dinner. It was great. There was some amazing artists
- 1:12:59Speaker 1: that on the soundtrack. They really helped make the show.
- 1:13:02Speaker 1: I mean, I think every week on the show probably
- 1:13:04Speaker 1: it's two new songs that come out that are used.
- 1:13:07Speaker 1: And it was it was important for me, like as
- 1:13:09Speaker 1: a producer, like that the show got to keep making
- 1:13:13Speaker 1: be authentic and true, but that the music itself, like
- 1:13:16Speaker 1: there was exterior that was surrounding it would allow you
- 1:13:18Speaker 1: to realize those feelings today. And that's done by the
- 1:13:22Speaker 1: artists that the Swiss was able to pull together to
- 1:13:25Speaker 1: be able to do an amazing soundtrack. We got more
- 1:13:27Speaker 1: with Forest Whittaker when we come back Don't Move. It's
- 1:13:29Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club, Good Morning, putting everybody. It's DJ Envy
- 1:13:32Speaker 1: and Angela Yee. Charlomagne, the guy we all the Breakfast
- 1:13:35Speaker 1: Club was still kicking it with Forest Whittaker. Charlomagne as
- 1:13:37Speaker 1: a director. He was talking about waiting next to Heaven.
- 1:13:39Speaker 1: When you look back on Scrapped, When you look back
- 1:13:41Speaker 1: on that, how do you feel about that project that
- 1:13:44Speaker 1: was made? I love doing I shot that in New York.
- 1:13:46Speaker 1: It was most of the actors were news like ninety
- 1:13:48Speaker 1: cents percent of them and never yeah. And then there
- 1:13:52Speaker 1: was a lot of like busting, a lot of different
- 1:13:54Speaker 1: artists too, the music artists that were playing different parts
- 1:13:56Speaker 1: in the show. And how was an amazing growth time
- 1:14:00Speaker 1: for me as an artist, you know, to learn how
- 1:14:02Speaker 1: to shoot that film and try to capture the power
- 1:14:05Speaker 1: of it. And I just said, I remember what Fragio
- 1:14:07Speaker 1: I was trying. He was between the group Onyx and
- 1:14:10Speaker 1: so he had already had a voice that was really
- 1:14:13Speaker 1: you know, rebellious voice, and so that voice became part
- 1:14:16Speaker 1: of the system in the show itself and it worked
- 1:14:18Speaker 1: out really good. It was an easy coaching them as
- 1:14:20Speaker 1: a director. Yeah, I had a great time working with them.
- 1:14:23Speaker 1: They were I mean yo yo, and everybody's so many
- 1:14:26Speaker 1: different people that were working on that and uh and
- 1:14:29Speaker 1: Jem SJ Was working on the music for me and stuff.
- 1:14:31Speaker 1: So yeah, like a hip hop head, I don't know,
- 1:14:35Speaker 1: I feel too very sat for you guys, your territory.
- 1:14:40Speaker 1: Just what's your favorite hip hop group of all time?
- 1:14:43Speaker 1: Of all time? I guess Tupac did some really great stuff. Okay,
- 1:14:47Speaker 1: you know there's a lot of great artists and it's
- 1:14:49Speaker 1: your territory. I mean, hip hop is black coature. Yeah yeah,
- 1:14:52Speaker 1: but I'm just saying, I mean, never mind, how do
- 1:14:55Speaker 1: you need to say that? Because I have worked with
- 1:14:59Speaker 1: a lot a lot of artists and stuff that I've
- 1:15:01Speaker 1: been really fortunate they done some amazing work. Do you
- 1:15:04Speaker 1: consider your personal values when it comes to accepting a role.
- 1:15:08Speaker 1: I always consider, you know, what I'm doing, what I'm
- 1:15:10Speaker 1: saying and stuff, what I'm playing a part, you know,
- 1:15:12Speaker 1: and even not just the part. What did the project
- 1:15:15Speaker 1: is seeing itself. I think it's important to like say
- 1:15:18Speaker 1: true to you, true yourself and with your true to
- 1:15:20Speaker 1: your ideals and stuff, and realize that, you know, you
- 1:15:23Speaker 1: have impact impacting different people's lives and stuff, and you
- 1:15:26Speaker 1: got to have some conscious around that. Is there anything
- 1:15:29Speaker 1: you've ever turned down because of your personal beliefs values?
- 1:15:32Speaker 1: You know? Yeah, I'm just not good at like pulling
- 1:15:34Speaker 1: out of the hat. Like obviously you've discovered that as
- 1:15:42Speaker 1: I did sing I started started in music. Now that
- 1:15:46Speaker 1: seems like a surprise. Now, That's why I wanted to
- 1:15:48Speaker 1: make sure that was like the story about your brother
- 1:15:52Speaker 1: you he did football and opera at the same time.
- 1:15:54Speaker 1: I can see football opera. I was staying classical voice.
- 1:15:58Speaker 1: And actually I got my first agent as an act
- 1:16:00Speaker 1: diffrom an opera, light opera. I just did a musical,
- 1:16:03Speaker 1: you know yeah in London with UH with Dave Talbot.
- 1:16:06Speaker 1: It's called the Jingle Jangle. So you're so soft spoker,
- 1:16:09Speaker 1: So I can't see you. Come on just one a
- 1:16:16Speaker 1: little bit, albums one a little bit. I don't know,
- 1:16:19Speaker 1: I nah nah, yeah, but I didn't I try. I
- 1:16:27Speaker 1: when I when I when I was when I had
- 1:16:29Speaker 1: to do the show them the musical. I was I
- 1:16:31Speaker 1: was nervous I wouldn't be able to still sing. But

- 1:16:35Speaker 1: it's a little, a little one. Nope, nah nah, he's

- 1:16:52Speaker 1: for us with it on the hook. Yeah, I think
- 1:16:56Speaker 1: when that one comes when uh, honestly, I feel like
- 1:16:58Speaker 1: Jingle Jangs can be one of the movies I've done. Okay,
- 1:17:02Speaker 1: so it's a musical and they're making it into a movie.
- 1:17:03Speaker 1: Also it's a movie, musical movie. He was shot as
- 1:17:06Speaker 1: a movie. Okay, so it's uh, we'll see what happens now,
- 1:17:10Speaker 1: Black Panther. You saw how much that movie meant to
- 1:17:12Speaker 1: the coachure easy to get emotionally attached to it. What
- 1:17:15Speaker 1: dad said, were you upset that they killed you? Often? Yeah,
- 1:17:18Speaker 1: I mean I think that. You know, he's a spiritual
- 1:17:21Speaker 1: to the leader of the community. So it's kind of
- 1:17:22Speaker 1: always like as major laws, not just for me as
- 1:17:24Speaker 1: an actor. But um, I don't know where I amn't

- 1:17:37Speaker 1: I'm a comic book guy, so they have a resurrection
- 1:17:38Speaker 1: altar in Wallkandum, So it's possible. I mean you saw
- 1:17:42Speaker 1: already like that he was visiting his father and stuff,
- 1:17:46Speaker 1: I mean being a spirit and stuff like that. It's like, uh,
- 1:17:49Speaker 1: I don't know, but I love that. This is an
- 1:17:51Speaker 1: amazing obviously amazing movie, an amazing project. It's happy that
- 1:17:56Speaker 1: I was involved with it. I got a chance to
- 1:17:57Speaker 1: be involved as like a lot of those kind of
- 1:17:59Speaker 1: moments of movies, like the waiting to exhales or the
- 1:18:02Speaker 1: you know, scrap class Scraps as a classic brow It
- 1:18:06Speaker 1: wasn't nobody to say what was your childhood? Like how
- 1:18:09Speaker 1: did you even get into the acting world. I was
- 1:18:12Speaker 1: born in Texas. I was raised in South central to
- 1:18:14Speaker 1: I was Buddy Leven and then in the you know,
- 1:18:16Speaker 1: in California. Then we moved out to Carson and the
- 1:18:18Speaker 1: Carston Compton line. I was studying, you know, just just
- 1:18:22Speaker 1: like normal living during the whole period of time where
- 1:18:25Speaker 1: was the birth of the gangs and birth of the
- 1:18:27Speaker 1: crypt and bloods. And that was kind of shaping myself
- 1:18:29Speaker 1: because that sent me across town. I had some problems
- 1:18:31Speaker 1: with some of the gangs there, so I had to
- 1:18:34Speaker 1: be sent to another part of town. And that changed
- 1:18:36Speaker 1: my life and I started to like get into music
- 1:18:38Speaker 1: and stuff, and the music led me into acting and
- 1:18:41Speaker 1: then gangs. Like why why did the gangs have a
- 1:18:45Speaker 1: problem with you because you didn't want to join or
- 1:18:47Speaker 1: they like did something sort of violent and like it
- 1:18:50Speaker 1: was protesting and like fighting back, and so then it
- 1:18:53Speaker 1: was a question of like meeting them after you know,
- 1:18:57Speaker 1: the meet meet after school in that case was like
- 1:18:59Speaker 1: more like a gangs, guns and stuff like that. So
- 1:19:03Speaker 1: in order to be safe, my mom was a teacher,
- 1:19:05Speaker 1: and so she decided to move me on. I was
- 1:19:07Speaker 1: going to school in Compton and she sent me across
- 1:19:11Speaker 1: to another part of town. Did you ever feel pressured
- 1:19:13Speaker 1: to join us? Set? No, never, No. I knew lots
- 1:19:17Speaker 1: of guys who are but it wasn't that wasn't gonna
- 1:19:20Speaker 1: be me. I mean, even even that event that happened
- 1:19:24Speaker 1: was a part of that, you know, like they were
- 1:19:26Speaker 1: treating people around me, and I didn't try to mistreat
- 1:19:29Speaker 1: me and who wasn't standing for it? Yeah, I took
- 1:19:31Speaker 1: a lot of balls in the middle of Compton, he said,
- 1:19:33Speaker 1: Compton right, just stayed up to the gangs. Yeah, I guess. Yeah.
- 1:19:38Speaker 1: And my mom was a teacher, so she knew. Yeah.
- 1:19:41Speaker 1: Did you catch a lot for your name for Us?
- 1:19:43Speaker 1: When Farrest Gump came out? People people have said that
- 1:19:46Speaker 1: that joke a lot to me. But I'm like the
- 1:19:48Speaker 1: third one my mom, my father, and my grandfather named
- 1:19:51Speaker 1: for us. It's it's a family name. Did you feel
- 1:19:54Speaker 1: a way when you saw the movie title like wait
- 1:19:56Speaker 1: for Us? Yeah, not really, but I definitely people definitely
- 1:20:00Speaker 1: make you know, the whole joke of a run for
- 1:20:02Speaker 1: Us run and all like a lot of memes that
- 1:20:05Speaker 1: you could create in general, just do you see the
- 1:20:11Speaker 1: memes about yourself? Because because they always come for your eye,
- 1:20:13Speaker 1: and your eye creates a lot of content on social media.
- 1:20:17Speaker 1: Have you seen any of those? I've seen. I've seen
- 1:20:19Speaker 1: some of them. Yeah, I mean that's gonna happen, you know. Yeah.
- 1:20:22Speaker 1: I remember you said once that you would contemplating having
- 1:20:25Speaker 1: cosmetic surgery on your eye. No, not cous matic surgery
- 1:20:27Speaker 1: because it limits my vision. Like when I look up
- 1:20:31Speaker 1: and there was a way to fix it, then I
- 1:20:32Speaker 1: would have I would have better vision. So they don't
- 1:20:35Speaker 1: know where to fix it. You know. There was a
- 1:20:36Speaker 1: guy that told me that there was, but then I
- 1:20:38Speaker 1: just eyes are risky too. You don't want to do
- 1:20:40Speaker 1: something and then it doesn't go the way you anticipated,
- 1:20:43Speaker 1: and then now it's worse. Yeah, that's what I was
- 1:20:45Speaker 1: worried about. Now is it a condition? Because after eleven
- 1:20:47Speaker 1: o'clock my eye does the same thing, and I always say,
- 1:20:50Speaker 1: whenever it happens, i'd be like, I'm looking a little
- 1:20:52Speaker 1: far as winterkery right now. So it's like a condition.
- 1:20:55Speaker 1: U um, this is called ptosis. I don't know, condition whatever. Yeah,
- 1:21:03Speaker 1: I mean I guess, I guess it's fine. And you know,
- 1:21:06Speaker 1: if that's what you you know you think when you
- 1:21:08Speaker 1: think about it, I mean, if I come into your
- 1:21:10Speaker 1: mind because of that as a kicking guys, I'm talking
- 1:21:16Speaker 1: out after a lie you said to night late when
- 1:21:19Speaker 1: I'm out after eleven. All right, well, Godfather of Harlem,
- 1:21:22Speaker 1: appreciate you for joining us. Thanks all right, as far
- 1:21:24Speaker 1: as what because the breakfast club, good morning, the Breakfast Club.
- 1:21:30Speaker 1: How to argue with these young boys about things that
- 1:21:33Speaker 1: they don't know. All right, let's get to the rum
- 1:21:34Speaker 1: as us two young boys like dramas just being here.
- 1:21:37Speaker 1: First thing was beyond things. Whack. Now you're telling me
- 1:21:40Speaker 1: nobody checking for two live crew. Let's get one of
- 1:21:43Speaker 1: them hip pop groups of all time. Let's talk super Bowl.
- 1:21:46Speaker 1: It's about is the rumor report? Angel and Ye on
- 1:21:55Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club? All right? Well, the NFL announced that
- 1:21:59Speaker 1: both che for low Pass and Shakira will be performing
- 1:22:02Speaker 1: at the halftime show. And Uncle Luke he's a little
- 1:22:05Speaker 1: upset about it. So all of a sudden, the NFL,
- 1:22:07Speaker 1: y'all gonna bring in j Loo and somebody else. It
- 1:22:10Speaker 1: just totally dista all the entertainment on the African American
- 1:22:13Speaker 1: entertainment in Miami. So we don't exist. It ain't about me.
- 1:22:17Speaker 1: I don't want to perform. I would have thought you
- 1:22:19Speaker 1: had since to go in get pit Bull, Flow Rider
- 1:22:23Speaker 1: or Ross or somebody Trick Daddy or something. Really, we
- 1:22:27Speaker 1: don't need the NFL. Our hotels are already filed up.
- 1:22:30Speaker 1: You need us, jay Z, you gotta fix it. I
- 1:22:34Speaker 1: can see why he's upset because when you have a
- 1:22:36Speaker 1: city like Miami that has the rich history it has
- 1:22:38Speaker 1: and has the international superstars that does you have to
- 1:22:41Speaker 1: go get pit Bull, you have to go get Floor Rider.
- 1:22:43Speaker 1: Like I don't understand why pit Bull and Florida wouldn't
- 1:22:45Speaker 1: be headlined in that show. I don't understand. I mean,
- 1:22:48Speaker 1: I'm not saying that you can't have a j Loo
- 1:22:50Speaker 1: out there, but why why why aren't pitbulling Floor Rider headlining?
- 1:22:53Speaker 1: Well dramas our producer Slash says that, well, j Loo
- 1:22:59Speaker 1: is bigger than anybody there, and she's a huge star. Yes,
- 1:23:02Speaker 1: I don't think you realize how big pit Bull was
- 1:23:05Speaker 1: the past ten years. I don't think you realize how
- 1:23:07Speaker 1: big Floor Rider was the past ten years. I would
- 1:23:09Speaker 1: I would even say that they have bigger I know,
- 1:23:11Speaker 1: they got bigger records than jay Loo's had over the
- 1:23:13Speaker 1: past decade. Response, She's still an icon. If it was
- 1:23:16Speaker 1: like Miley Cyrus headline, yea, you can we talk a conversation.
- 1:23:23Speaker 1: If it was Miley Cyrus or something like that, I
- 1:23:25Speaker 1: could see the argument happening. But you're talking about an icon.
- 1:23:27Speaker 1: J loos and icons undeniable. So now we're sitting here,
- 1:23:29Speaker 1: you know, and I could do with that Shakira. So
- 1:23:32Speaker 1: you're saying pit bull of floor rider shouldn't even be
- 1:23:34Speaker 1: in that stage. No, I say they are. But to me,
- 1:23:35Speaker 1: they're all in the same level, in the same class.
- 1:23:37Speaker 1: So at this point would be arguing about so add
- 1:23:40Speaker 1: a pit bull and a floor rider to the Rick
- 1:23:42Speaker 1: Ross or a cal it could be there, or Trick
- 1:23:44Speaker 1: Daddy or Trina. Then not to the same level of
- 1:23:48Speaker 1: jail Lord Pitple. I could see you saying, are you
- 1:23:50Speaker 1: kidding me? Come on now this and have the name? Yeah,
- 1:23:58Speaker 1: so why are you Jaylo's I just said, people, we
- 1:24:00Speaker 1: can put Jaylos Puto Rican. Of course you should add
- 1:24:02Speaker 1: Molatino African American artists in the first person. He name
- 1:24:06Speaker 1: was Pimple, So doesn't make sense what he's saying. All right, girls,
- 1:24:08Speaker 1: all right, you better have that same energy when Uncle
- 1:24:11Speaker 1: Luke comes back up. All right, I have that same energy,
- 1:24:16Speaker 1: and you better stick to the script of saying that
- 1:24:18Speaker 1: you thought Two Love Crew was trash. You said that earlier,
- 1:24:20Speaker 1: Yes you did. I think I heard that saying I
- 1:24:22Speaker 1: think I heard that because he goes, hear he goes, y'all,
- 1:24:24Speaker 1: Uncle Luke couldn't perform that. I said, are you crazy.
- 1:24:27Speaker 1: You know those two Love Crew said it at the
- 1:24:31Speaker 1: same level, Are you kidding? Two Love Crew means more
- 1:24:33Speaker 1: than meeting all of those see you, you're an old
- 1:24:35Speaker 1: head and listen, jay Los older than me. J Lo

- 1:24:49Speaker 1: ja Los looks may because he's looking at you guys
- 1:24:51Speaker 1: to say why. I don't know, No, John, you've thought
- 1:24:56Speaker 1: about that before, the fact that jay Loo looks better
- 1:24:58Speaker 1: than Charlotte? Man? Have you ever sme old Charlot about that? Wow? Okay,
- 1:25:04Speaker 1: all right? Well, lastly Talent Creator was performing and as
- 1:25:07Speaker 1: Taler the Creator was performing, somebody bumped in and said
- 1:25:10Speaker 1: it to my birthday. So Tyler the Creator wished her
- 1:25:12Speaker 1: happy birthday. Tyler the creative style, Happy birthday, Happy birthday,

- 1:25:32Speaker 1: birthday already this nady? Okay, alright, Well, still almost thinks
- 1:25:40Speaker 1: j Loo looks better than me. I agree with him,
- 1:25:42Speaker 1: but I just want to know why am I the comparison? Yeah?
- 1:25:44Speaker 1: Why did you jail? He was trying to hold her
- 1:25:47Speaker 1: age against her, but she she looks more useful than you.
- 1:25:50Speaker 1: This I don't understand. No, you said she looks better.

- 1:27:43Speaker 1: him and his boys argue about who looks better Charlemagne
- 1:27:45Speaker 1: and God to Jlo, of course, Jlo, it's not even close.
