  Speaker 2: What's wrong with you? Teslan Figure thes up next? Front
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: page news is the breakfast lubl Good morning, let's go
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: Good morning. Everybody is d J n V Charlamage the God.
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: We are the breakfast Club. Let's get in some front
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: page news.
• 3:36
  Speaker 11: Good morning, teas, Oh, good morning DJ and me. Good morning,
• 3:40
  Speaker 11: Charlamagne God, Good morning.
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: That's crazy now, I know. With some quick NFL last night,
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: the Jaguars beat the Saints thirty one, twenty four. Now
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: what we jumping into.
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah, let's talk about the four hundred Capital staffers. They're
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: calling for a ceasefire. Muslim and Jewish congressional staffers signed
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: a letter yesterday urging Congress tobacco between Israel and Amas
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: in the light of the anti Jewish, anti Muslim, and
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: anti Palestinian sentiment on the rise in the nation.
• 4:07
  Speaker 12: Now.
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: The letter they wrote said that nationwideen in the Congress,
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: the voices calling for de escalation in peace have been
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: drowned out by those beating the drums of war. As
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: Muslims and Jews, we are tired of reliving generational fears
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: of genocide and ethnic cleansing. It often feels like the
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: conversations on Capitol Hill are completely divorced from the conversations
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: people are having among their friends, family, and coworkers. So
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: they are asking for peace because obviously the US is
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: making decisions without input from the American people, and certainly
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: I guess the staffers are seeing it from behind the
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: scenes and they're saying, you know, enough is enough. Now,
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: speaking of that, President Biden did address the nation last
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: night about Ukraine and Israel, and how the US must
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: continue to support Let's take a listen to a few
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: of his words.
• 4:51
  Speaker 7: We can't let petty parties and angry politics getting away
• 4:55
  Speaker 7: or responsibility is a great nation. We cannot and will
• 4:57
  Speaker 7: not let terrorists like Kamas, tyrants like couldn't win. I
• 5:01
  Speaker 7: refuse to let that happen. And moments like these we
• 5:04
  Speaker 7: have to rewind. We have to remember who we are.
• 5:06
  Speaker 7: Where are the United States of America, the United States
• 5:10
  Speaker 7: of America? And there is nothing, nothing beyond our capacity
• 5:14
  Speaker 7: if we do it together.
• 5:18
  Speaker 9: Once again, man, do what you got to do for
• 5:19
  Speaker 9: global stability, but take care at home.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: First.
• 5:21
  Speaker 9: I gets terrible that we have money for war but
• 5:23
  Speaker 9: can't feed the poor here in America. Or they asking
• 5:25
  Speaker 9: for one hundred billion dollars in funding, their requesting from
• 5:28
  Speaker 9: Congress one hundred billion dollars while folks is go over
• 5:31
  Speaker 9: here starving, while folks go over here homeless, Like why
• 5:34
  Speaker 9: can't we take care of the basics here?
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: First, I thought we were in a huge debt. I
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: thought we were borrowing money from countries and borrowing money
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: from Allied So how do we have that money to
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: actually give to them?
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: I don't know?
• 5:45
  Speaker 9: And it's where you can address the nation all you want,
• 5:47
  Speaker 9: but I promise you, you know, the nation doesn't care
• 5:52
  Speaker 9: about foreign foreign policy or foreign politics the way they
• 5:55
  Speaker 9: do about here at home. I can guarantee you that
• 5:59
  Speaker 9: American foreign priorities are not the priorities of the average
• 6:02
  Speaker 9: everyday American.
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: I can guarantee you that.
• 6:04
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 6:04
  Speaker 4: And just for clarity is it's certainly more than that,
• 6:06
  Speaker 4: because it's one hundred billion to Israel, and then yesterday
• 6:09
  Speaker 4: the report was one hundred million that's going to for
• 6:15
  Speaker 4: the relief in Godza, so and it's way more than
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: and they asked for an eight billion dollar package they're
• 6:19
  Speaker 4: putting together as well, you know, in Congress for this effort,
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: and then again not including what's already been in Ukraine.
• 6:25
  Speaker 4: So the numbers just keep adding up. So it's certainly
• 6:28
  Speaker 4: a lot of money that they're talking about. And what
• 6:30
  Speaker 4: that said in Congress right now Jim Jordan, who will
• 6:33
  Speaker 4: be who they are saying is going to be the
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: next Speaker of the House in order to give more
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: of this money, I was important to have a speaker.
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: He goes for a third vote today they continue to
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: keep telling him, we don't want you, Jim and Jim
• 6:44
  Speaker 4: is saying I'm going to keep on pushing the line.
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: And as a result of that, a voicemail was left
• 6:49
  Speaker 4: on the wife of a congressman's phone. Now they did
• 6:52
  Speaker 4: not say who this wife was or who the congress
• 6:54
  Speaker 4: person was. They wanted to make sure they protected the identity,
• 6:58
  Speaker 4: but a very disturbing voicemail. I got a you a
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: sake and self to.
• 7:01
  Speaker 11: Check it out.
• 7:01
  Speaker 10: Why is your husband such a pig? Why would he
• 7:04
  Speaker 10: get on TV? And they can ask himself because he's
• 7:06
  Speaker 10: a deep state prick because he doesn't represent the people.
• 7:09
  Speaker 10: So what we're going to do is we're gonna come
• 7:12
  Speaker 10: follow you all over the place. We're going to be
• 7:14
  Speaker 10: up yours. We are now Antifa. We're going to do
• 7:19
  Speaker 10: what the left does because you're a husband gets on
• 7:23
  Speaker 10: TV just oh the bad guys. Dad. So I'm going
• 7:26
  Speaker 10: to vote for Kevin McCarthy, a piece who everybody knows,
• 7:31

• 7:34
  Speaker 10: actually fighting for Americans as the bad people says everything
• 7:39
  Speaker 10: about him. So you your husband, so listen, I'm putting
• 7:44
  Speaker 10: all your information over the internet now everybody else's and

  Speaker 1: They get the numbers from.
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: Number again they find it just like people have found
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: found information left, voicemails left. You know that when you
• 8:12
  Speaker 4: go against uh, some of these folks, you know, in
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: their position, they get pretty aggressive with trying to find

  Speaker 9: back in the day, start six.
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: The phone lord have mercy. Yeah, but people like that
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: should get locked up. And that's that's regardless. When you
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: threaten people over the line and you threaten to put
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: that information out their address, their phone number where people
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: can actually get hurt, that's a threat and they shouldet arrested.
• 8:45

  Speaker 2: we're gonna be kicking with Nala. But she's gonna join

  Speaker 2: us for a little bit, and let's get to the rumors.
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: Let's talk Young Blue. Whole lot of names or you've
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: gossip been when you chatting. This is the rumor report.
• 16:26
  Speaker 6: I mean, I guess we're on the Breakfast Club.
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: This is where the tea spells right right now. Young
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: Blue was arrested yesterday for allegedly attacking a woman. Now,
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: this is an incident at the center of an alleged
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: custody dispute involving a ten year old child. They said
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: that officers responded to a nine one one call from
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: a woman on October fifteenth to their home. When deputies arrived,
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: they said, the woman told him that Young Blue had
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: shown up at the residents unannounced, with the intent to
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: take the ten year old child with him. They said.
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: An argument ensued and allegedly he threw the woman to
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: the ground. Now, Young Blue made a statement, he said,
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: I'm off this internet thing. I cherish women and I
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: can and I'm completely innocent. Just know this about to
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: be one of the toughest times to be a fan
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: of Minds because I'm about to go into another bracket
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: as owner and entrepreneur. And people hate you know that,
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: They hate on that. So that's what happened with Young
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: Blue while he was arrested yesterday.
• 17:19
  Speaker 16: This is like the second biasco he's had with women
• 17:22
  Speaker 16: in the media light within like the past two months.
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: I feel like, mm hmm. Sounds like he needs to
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: sage that.
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: This is just a sage.
• 17:30
  Speaker 16: Sounds like he needs a sage.
• 17:31
  Speaker 6: But I like Young Blue, I hope he figures that out.
• 17:34
  Speaker 10: Yeah.
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: Now, Sugar Knight, Now this is crazy. Sug Knight is
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: starting a podcast from prison.
• 17:39
  Speaker 9: We do not need podcasts mikes in prison. The last
• 17:41
  Speaker 9: thing we need is podcast mikes in prison. Podcast mikes
• 17:43
  Speaker 9: in prison is the recipe for disaster. Let's listen to
• 17:45
  Speaker 9: the trailer.
• 17:47
  Speaker 7: More than three hundred million dollars got row with a
• 17:50
  Speaker 7: possible recocasion mind.
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: Because people don't know about a lot of this stuff.
• 17:57
  Speaker 6: Jesus made started the Source on.
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: The New Source for Garus.
• 18:01
  Speaker 6: The magazine is now a ten million dollars a year publication.
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: Every time you turn around, everybody want to spreadge lines.
• 18:15
  Speaker 12: He want to be an artist, Andy want to stay
• 18:17
  Speaker 12: a star.
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: We're gonna have to worry about the dactive producer trying.
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: To be all in the video, all on the record
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: color Death Rock.
• 18:29
  Speaker 15: You've had a prepaid call from sure Night.
• 18:33
  Speaker 9: So this sounds like a well produced, singular focused podcast.
• 18:37
  Speaker 9: This podcast is actually about an issue.
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: What are you about?
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: I guess they're gonna be talking about everything. He's gonna
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: be talking about all everything that's going on with Death Row.
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: He's gonna be h they say, barking back at Snoop
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: acon H and a host of other people who's gonna
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: reply into some of the things that they've heard. So, yeah,
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: this is a It's actually on Breakbeat Media, so it
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: is gonna be coming out. They said, five episodes are
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: already shot, so we'll be see.
• 19:00
  Speaker 9: So I guess you'll got a story to tell. I'm
• 19:02
  Speaker 9: just saying, like you don't want this random podcast. Mike
• 19:04
  Speaker 9: floating around prison like you do not want to hear
• 19:07
  Speaker 9: a podcast called Guys we F'd coming out of a
• 19:09
  Speaker 9: male correctional facility.
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: Nobody watched that, all right, Okay?
• 19:13
  Speaker 9: And the only other way I would want podcasts mikes
• 19:15
  Speaker 9: in prison is if you have some of these brothers
• 19:18
  Speaker 9: and sisters telling stories about how they got there, so
• 19:21
  Speaker 9: maybe people don't make the same decisions that they made.
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: That could be interesting.
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: I feel as your question, doesn't that get you in trouble,
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: Like you're not supposed to have a podcast. I'm sure
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: Mike's in jail or you're not supposed to be talking,
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: and then all of a sudden the podcast comes out
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: business in.
• 19:37
  Speaker 16: Jail, a lot of people from jail beginning to contact
• 19:40
  Speaker 16: with me a lot of different ways. So I don't
• 19:43
  Speaker 16: know what the rules are, but I will say I
• 19:45
  Speaker 16: feel like a lot of podcasts these days already feel
• 19:47
  Speaker 16: like jail talk. Nothing but yo, if you nothing but
• 19:53
  Speaker 16: hood trauma story, they did this back then, I.
• 19:57
  Speaker 9: Just like, my goodness, I'm over it is It is
• 19:59
  Speaker 9: some I know what Niyhle is saying, because you do
• 20:01
  Speaker 9: have a lot of people on podcasts kind of like
• 20:02
  Speaker 9: just incriminating themselves, right, So these are the people who
• 20:06
  Speaker 9: have literally they're literally incarcerated for crime, you know. So
• 20:10
  Speaker 9: once again, I just feel like if they're in there
• 20:11
  Speaker 9: and they're telling us how they got there and maybe
• 20:14
  Speaker 9: people don't make those same mistakes, that could be cool
• 20:16
  Speaker 9: if they teach turned it into a teachable moment, But
• 20:19
  Speaker 9: other than that, nah.
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: And lastly, it seems like making the stallion and called Crawford,
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: you know, called Crawford was the owner of the label
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: she was signed to fifteen oh one certified. It seems
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: like the beef is now over. They parted ways. Everything
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: seems fine, so I know it's been three years of
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: back and forth, but now they say that they have
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: ended their relationship, you know, financially and I guess business wise.
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: So she is no longer on fifteen oh one certified.
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: So I know she was looking for that. So congratulations
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: to her, all right, what I.
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: Mean they bought her out?
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: Like what happened? Like they were not in no details. No,
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: they're not giving no details. They just say they amically
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: part ways and ended three years of back and forth
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: of swiping on social media. They were in court and everything, right, yeah,
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: in courting everything, So maybe they agreed to maybe somebody
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: bought it out. Maybe she'll, you know, he'll still get
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: a percentage of whatever it is, but she's no longer
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: on fifteen oh one certified.
• 21:12
  Speaker 9: And I don't like stuff like that when you make
• 21:13
  Speaker 9: when there's so much noise around the situation. We knew
• 21:16
  Speaker 9: all the details going into it, right, so tell us
• 21:19
  Speaker 9: all the details when things get cool.
• 21:20
  Speaker 16: I was about to say, they ain't saying nothing. That
• 21:22
  Speaker 16: kind of scares me. But doing business with anybody from
• 21:24
  Speaker 16: Texas like that, honestly scares me.
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: The whole Texas.
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: Not look just because they hold money in Texas, nobody.
• 21:32
  Speaker 16: But music history in Texas. Like all those people intimidate me.
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: Like, who I get what you say?
• 21:37
  Speaker 9: You say that that what you've heard about some of
• 21:39
  Speaker 9: the people in Texas, not that they do bad business,
• 21:42
  Speaker 9: You just hear intimidating things about them.
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: Yes, I get what you said, like the legend of J.
• 21:47
  Speaker 16: Prince's what you're talking Moze. I want no beef, no problem,
• 21:51
  Speaker 16: no parts. And once they get involved, like we said,
• 21:54
  Speaker 16: we don't hear nothing. All we know is is a
• 21:56
  Speaker 16: done deal. I'm okay Texas though, all.
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: Right, well that is your rumor report. Now when we
• 22:06

• 22:16
  Speaker 9: couple of these, just giving these out. You just just no,
• 22:19

• 22:21
  Speaker 9: that frog got your throat? All right, look a look
• 22:23
  Speaker 9: at the look at this?
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: All right? When we come back, we got front page news,

  Speaker 2: The hood which for test figure out what's happening. Let's cut,
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: let's jump right into it. Let's talk about the murder rate.
• 22:59
  Speaker 4: Yeah, to try to do It's been such a heavy week, guys,
• 23:02
  Speaker 4: I'm sure you agree with all of the war coverage.
• 23:04
  Speaker 4: Wanted to try to find something least positive that we
• 23:06
  Speaker 4: could talk about during this hour, and the murder rate
• 23:10
  Speaker 4: failed six percent nationwide. Now, depending on where you live,
• 23:13
  Speaker 4: if you feel that or not, and obviously if you've
• 23:15
  Speaker 4: experienced something tragic, this may not mean much. But for
• 23:18
  Speaker 4: those who want to know, you know what's happening with
• 23:21
  Speaker 4: the murder rate, it has went down. The FBI issued
• 23:23
  Speaker 4: their annual crime report and found that violent crime in
• 23:26
  Speaker 4: the US has decreased. The murder rate went down six
• 23:29
  Speaker 4: point one percent from in twenty twenty two. Again, they
• 23:32
  Speaker 4: just released this report, you know, kind of doing the
• 23:34
  Speaker 4: assessment from last year. Overall, violent crime dropped one point
• 23:37
  Speaker 4: seven percent, including a six point one percent decrease and
• 23:39
  Speaker 4: murder and non negligent manslaughter. The murder rate also continues
• 23:43
  Speaker 4: to follow this year after it jump nearly thirty percent
• 23:46
  Speaker 4: during the pandemic in twenty twenty. So in twenty twenty two,
• 23:49
  Speaker 4: the rate for homicide was six point three percent six
• 23:54
  Speaker 4: point three homicide offenses per one hundred thousand. This is
• 23:57
  Speaker 4: down from twenty twenty one, which was a eight of
• 24:00
  Speaker 4: six point eight percent pert one hundred thousand people. So
• 24:03
  Speaker 4: property crime is on the rise, unfortunately, but the murder
• 24:06
  Speaker 4: rate is down.
• 24:08
  Speaker 9: I don't feel it all the time. And what is
• 24:11
  Speaker 9: it down from a million percent? Like what is what
• 24:14
  Speaker 9: did that say?
• 24:14
  Speaker 6: Like?
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: I don't feel like that at all.
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't see that. All I see is people
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: getting killed all the time.
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: But the papers on the news and it seems like
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: it's the murder rate it's going up.
• 24:24
  Speaker 4: It feels like yeah, I mean yeah, like I said,
• 24:26
  Speaker 4: it's personal. It's it's all gonna come down if you
• 24:29
  Speaker 4: if you feel it or not, and that will affect folks,
• 24:31
  Speaker 4: you know, uh at the at the voting booth, but
• 24:34
  Speaker 4: you know me personally losing a friend last month, lost
• 24:37
  Speaker 4: one this month, funeral today actually uh so.
• 24:41
  Speaker 11: Yeah, thank you so much. So it just you know,
• 24:43
  Speaker 11: it just just depends.
• 24:44
  Speaker 4: Now my friend today, shout out to him, act if
• 24:46
  Speaker 4: he was not murdered. I want to be clear about that.
• 24:48
  Speaker 4: But a last month friend wasn't. I think I mentioned
• 24:50
  Speaker 4: that on the show es Bohn who was murdered unfortunately.
• 24:53
  Speaker 4: So again a lot is still happening for people having
• 24:56
  Speaker 4: you know, a personal connection.
• 24:58
  Speaker 11: That's what it comes down to in politics. What do
• 25:00
  Speaker 11: you feel personally.
• 25:01
  Speaker 4: We can put the SATs out, we can have the conversations,
• 25:04
  Speaker 4: but at the end of the day, if people don't
• 25:06
  Speaker 4: feel it, these SATs mean nothing. But I still want to,
• 25:08
  Speaker 4: you know, at least let you know what the FBI said.
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: Oh no, I agree with you.
• 25:11
  Speaker 9: I'm a person that I vote my own interests, and
• 25:14
  Speaker 9: if I don't vote my own interest I will vote
• 25:16
  Speaker 9: the things that I know will benefit others, you know.
• 25:19
  Speaker 9: So I'm a little bit to you to your point,
• 25:20
  Speaker 9: I'm definitely all about interests when I vote.
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: Now bout hitting that snooze button?
• 25:26
  Speaker 6: Now, yeah, I wanted to know.
• 25:28
  Speaker 4: Do you guys hit the snooze button in the morning.
• 25:30
  Speaker 4: I'm sure you you got to get up early. We
• 25:33
  Speaker 4: all hit this snooze button. There's on a report that
• 25:36
  Speaker 4: says it actually can benefit your brain. So I wanted
• 25:38
  Speaker 4: to give you this information. Scientist at the Stockholm University
• 25:41
  Speaker 4: found the snooze and may actually support the waking process
• 25:43
  Speaker 4: for regular snoozers. Now, for years they've called snoozers lazy
• 25:47
  Speaker 4: and perhaps saying that they, you know, just don't want
• 25:50
  Speaker 4: to get up and need to herry up and get up.
• 25:51
  Speaker 4: But they have found that this actually helps the brain's
• 25:53
  Speaker 4: ability to wake up properly. Oney seven hundred and thirty
• 25:57
  Speaker 4: two individuals answer questions about their morning habits, including if
• 26:00
  Speaker 4: they hit the snooze button, and they found that this
• 26:03
  Speaker 4: allowed them to wake up easier. They woke up quicker
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: on their feet, and a little bit more shark when
• 26:09
  Speaker 4: they had the snooze, and the snooze that they the
• 26:12
  Speaker 4: time that they looked at for the study was an
• 26:13
  Speaker 4: extra thirty minutes. So me personally, I think I do
• 26:16
  Speaker 4: like ten or fifteen depends on what coast. I'm on
• 26:18
  Speaker 4: the West coast for sure, because I'm up at like
• 26:20
  Speaker 4: one am, two am in the morning, so I do
• 26:22
  Speaker 4: like fifteen minutes there Central Central Time.
• 26:24
  Speaker 11: I do maybe ten minutes. In the East coast, I
• 26:26
  Speaker 11: usually can kind of get right on up.
• 26:28
  Speaker 9: So yeah, I wake up at four fifteen every morning.
• 26:30
  Speaker 9: I usually hit the snooze button. It ain't that long though,
• 26:32
  Speaker 9: I think it's my snooz button might.
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: Be like three four minutes.
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: You know what I want.
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: I want to custom customize the alarm clock.
• 26:38
  Speaker 9: Like I want an alarm clock that when it goes off,
• 26:41
  Speaker 9: it claps and it's like rise, king, get up.
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: Today is your day? King like cheering you on, like WHOA,
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: Well you can't you could.
• 26:50
  Speaker 11: I guess you could. I guess you could record that
• 26:52
  Speaker 11: is audio and make your audio.
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: You wake up your wife. You're a waite for you.
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: You wake up your wife. If that that goes off
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: every day.
• 26:59
  Speaker 9: I mean, if I'm gonna go off anyway, So you know,
• 27:01
  Speaker 9: I just imagine how that is to start your day
• 27:03
  Speaker 9: with that kind of like like somebody's celebrating you, like.
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he's up, yay, Yes, the world is yours. I'll
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: be honest. The reason I don't have a snooze button
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: because I don't use the snooze is because the lawn
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: is so loud, and usually one of the kids is
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: in our room for some reason, one of the kids,
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: the baby, one of them is in our room. They
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: one ends up in the room, and you're trying to
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: be so quiet not to wake up the family when
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: you're leaving in the morning. So I don't even hit
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: there's no snooze for me. Your throat clear, It did
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: to clear up a little bit. Yeah, you start crying,
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: crying like a little white man crying. Look at them
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: on that screen, what are you talking about? So you
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: just jump right up then and hit the floor. I

• 28:55
  Speaker 6: he's on the weekend.
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: Dominican. I think you a fat joke.
• 29:03
  Speaker 6: I mean fat Joe is Joey crack.
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: You're never not working new book? Legitimate kid, you know what?
• 29:10
  Speaker 6: I was laughing because she said that books are the
• 29:13
  Speaker 6: new record. Yeah, and it is because I'm dissing my
• 29:17
  Speaker 6: mama and daddy in this. Jesus, Jesus, I'm holding them accountable,
• 29:24
  Speaker 6: but I'm not never this. My mom is my queen.
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: Why do you call it legitimate kid?
• 29:29
  Speaker 6: Because kids in the in the hood are evil. And
• 29:31
  Speaker 6: when I was little, kid told me I was a
• 29:34
  Speaker 6: bastard because I didn't have my father's last name. Jesus,
• 29:36
  Speaker 6: and I found out what it meant, and then I
• 29:39
  Speaker 6: was I felt less than and so I went on
• 29:42
  Speaker 6: a journey to find my legitimacy. And I want all
• 29:45
  Speaker 6: the little kids that grow up in the hood that
• 29:47
  Speaker 6: hear this. Your daddy didn't sign your birth certificate. That
• 29:51
  Speaker 6: doesn't make you legitimate. That that term comes from prostitution.
• 29:54
  Speaker 6: It has nothing to do with parental presence in your life.
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: It can turn bastard.
• 30:00
  Speaker 6: Yeah, that came being a legitimate came from them saying
• 30:04
  Speaker 6: children that were born to prostitutes were not legitimate. But
• 30:08
  Speaker 6: then they weaponized that against people of color, poor people,
• 30:11
  Speaker 6: And so I wanted to find out more about myself
• 30:14
  Speaker 6: because that affected the way I dealt with men, you know,
• 30:17
  Speaker 6: my life as a mom and all that stuff, and
• 30:20
  Speaker 6: so I wanted to I want everybody who reads that
• 30:23
  Speaker 6: book to know that they are legitimate.
• 30:25
  Speaker 9: Now we said something back to the boy or what
• 30:26
  Speaker 9: was what was just the joke? Back to the boy
• 30:28
  Speaker 9: you had something for nah?
• 30:29
  Speaker 6: You know you know my joke I was when I
• 30:32
  Speaker 6: was a kid. I was meek when I was little.
• 30:34
  Speaker 6: This didn't happen til like this was in elementary. I
• 30:37
  Speaker 6: didn't get gully to middle school. Started peeping the pro wings.
• 30:42
  Speaker 6: You're too young to know what that is. You sneakers
• 30:45
  Speaker 6: from pay less that the poor people used to.
• 30:49
  Speaker 12: It was cool.
• 30:50
  Speaker 6: Yeah, that was cool when you now when we was kids,
• 30:53
  Speaker 6: that was food stamp.
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: So you probably had out.
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah I did.
• 30:57
  Speaker 6: I would have the flailix. Nobody could see that it
• 30:59
  Speaker 6: was let's just a tip. You can see the tip
• 31:03
  Speaker 6: sticking out.
• 31:03
  Speaker 2: But oh, now talk about the journey of finding your
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: dad and finding your history.
• 31:08
  Speaker 6: So you know what my I went to the Dominican Republic.
• 31:11
  Speaker 6: I did the documentary that's on HBO and my father.
• 31:14
  Speaker 6: You know, when I met my father, my father asked
• 31:16
  Speaker 6: me for money, and it was the first question. It
• 31:19
  Speaker 6: was not the first question, but it was probably like
• 31:21
  Speaker 6: the fourth and it was very painful because I was
• 31:26
  Speaker 6: I just met him, and you know, I was really
• 31:28
  Speaker 6: upset with him. I died them on stage. It was
• 31:30
  Speaker 6: really you know, he was he was DL, I was Monique.
• 31:35
  Speaker 8: And it was they got.
• 31:38
  Speaker 6: I went in and then I decided to uh, to
• 31:42
  Speaker 6: really explore what that meant. And my father lives in
• 31:44
  Speaker 6: the Dominican Republic. He's been for his whole life. You know,
• 31:47
  Speaker 6: I was looking at it from my perspective. I wanted
• 31:50
  Speaker 6: I don't want to hate him. I just didn't want to.
• 31:52
  Speaker 6: I wanted to find love in my heart for him.
• 31:54
  Speaker 6: So I sat down and started exploring all of this stuff,
• 31:57
  Speaker 6: and I was like, yo, he is poor. His child
• 32:01
  Speaker 6: came from America.
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: The first, you know, fourth question, you want to know
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: about your daughter the first three questions. First, I know,
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: what was the first three questions?
• 32:09
  Speaker 6: You know, the first thing he asked me, he asked
• 32:11
  Speaker 6: me about my mom. He asked me how my mom
• 32:14
  Speaker 6: was doing. He cried, you know, he asked me about how,
• 32:17
  Speaker 6: you know, how things were going for me. You know,
• 32:20
  Speaker 6: he asked me about me. But it was just I
• 32:23
  Speaker 6: was getting ready to leave because I was only there
• 32:25
  Speaker 6: for two days, and he gave me a hug and
• 32:28
  Speaker 6: then he whispered in my ear, I'm gonna need you
• 32:30
  Speaker 6: to give me some money. And I was devastated. I left.
• 32:34
  Speaker 6: I didn't talk to him for a minute, and you know,
• 32:37
  Speaker 6: they had they had mics on me because we were
• 32:39
  Speaker 6: recording a documentary. We were in production, and so all
• 32:43
  Speaker 6: those people heard it and they were like they felt
• 32:46
  Speaker 6: bad for me.
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: Did you give him money?
• 32:48
  Speaker 10: I did.
• 32:50
  Speaker 6: I know, I'm not going to say that, but you know,
• 32:55
  Speaker 6: I was paying him to go away at that moment.
• 32:58
  Speaker 6: I was like, I'm gonna just because I know he's struggling,
• 33:00
  Speaker 6: but I was like, this is it. This is the
• 33:03
  Speaker 6: cheapest amount of money that I'm gonna give away. And
• 33:06
  Speaker 6: then I had to go through some work, some in
• 33:09
  Speaker 6: and works.
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: Did you learn to give grace to your parents were
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: just realizing they were just human.
• 33:12
  Speaker 6: Yes, my mom absolutely. You know who knows what my
• 33:17
  Speaker 6: daughter and my son are going to say about me
• 33:19
  Speaker 6: when they you know what I mean, Like we all
• 33:22
  Speaker 6: think we got it right. You think that because you're
• 33:24
  Speaker 6: not your parents and you're not struggling like your parents were,
• 33:27
  Speaker 6: that they had the best shoes. You never know what
• 33:31
  Speaker 6: the kids are going to say. And so I learned.
• 33:34
  Speaker 6: My mom had her first kid when she was fourteen,
• 33:36
  Speaker 6: and I didn't know that. I found out when I
• 33:37
  Speaker 6: was writing the book, and that baby died and the
• 33:40
  Speaker 6: father of the baby died playing Russian roulette. So that
• 33:45
  Speaker 6: was all before I was even born. She was a kid.
• 33:47
  Speaker 6: So I was like, how I'm gonna sit here and
• 33:49
  Speaker 6: judge my mother, Like, I mean.
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: You know, the traumas and stuff she was dealing.
• 33:53
  Speaker 6: With, you you know, I was born into it and
• 33:55
  Speaker 6: so and it was generational. My grandmother had her first
• 33:58
  Speaker 6: kid when she was thirteen. My mom was sexually abused
• 34:01
  Speaker 6: at home, so she was trying to get out, you
• 34:03
  Speaker 6: know what I mean, I can't do that to her.
• 34:05
  Speaker 6: She's and even still with all of that, she raised
• 34:08
  Speaker 6: four amazing kids, like none of us have ever been
• 34:10
  Speaker 6: in trouble with all productive? Who does that? You know
• 34:13
  Speaker 6: what I mean?
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: I walked in and was telling us about an interview
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: she did with Gael King.
• 34:19
  Speaker 6: Yeah, she said, girl, you've been through some things, you
• 34:22
  Speaker 6: know what. It's interesting though. She read the book and
• 34:25
  Speaker 6: I did an interview a couple of days ago with
• 34:27
  Speaker 6: somebody who didn't read the book. And when I walked in,
• 34:29
  Speaker 6: they were like, girl, your books so funny. And I
• 34:32
  Speaker 6: was like, I disrespect people that were like, you know,
• 34:38
  Speaker 6: I didn't read it, so tell me about it.
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: But she was like you so, and I was like,
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: it's not that type of book.
• 34:43
  Speaker 12: Who is that?
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: Who is that?
• 34:45
  Speaker 10: Well? You know what? Ess?
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: And I walked in, Jess and I walked in and
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: Charlemagne was looking at the book and he was very
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: interested in the chapter that said Pizza and Penis.
• 34:54
  Speaker 11: Yeah, that was the one that I went straight.
• 34:56
  Speaker 2: To, straight to pizzas because I wanted to know about callers.
• 34:59
  Speaker 6: To her, that was your uncle.
• 35:00
  Speaker 11: I want to know what was that With him?
• 35:01
  Speaker 6: We definitely talked about Carlos, but he saw Pisa and Penis.
• 35:08
  Speaker 6: He didn't even see Pisa, He just saw n Penis
• 35:10
  Speaker 6: and about this.
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: You need to get into it.
• 35:14
  Speaker 6: You know what's funny. It's Gael King was like, I
• 35:17
  Speaker 6: enjoyed this chapter. The chapter is about me getting sexually abused.
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: So it's not I feel stupid now, y'all thought, y'all.
• 35:29
  Speaker 8: All go ahead.
• 35:30
  Speaker 6: You know it was I want people to be free,
• 35:32
  Speaker 6: like I want people who've been through the stuff I've
• 35:34
  Speaker 6: been through to read this and say I'm gonna be
• 35:36
  Speaker 6: all right. I didn't want.
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: I don't want.
• 35:37
  Speaker 6: I don't want to do trauma porn like. It's not
• 35:39
  Speaker 6: just what is me and my life has been bad.
• 35:42
  Speaker 6: It's every turn is me turning around and say I'm
• 35:45
  Speaker 6: gonna turn this, I'm gonna flip this into this, and
• 35:48
  Speaker 6: this is how those things became jokes.
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: Well move, we got more with Ida Rodriguez. When we
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: come back, it's the Breakfast Club, Good morning Morning. Everybody's
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: DJ Envy Charlamagne the guy. We are the Breakfast I
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: was still kicking with Reguez. Do you think a comedian
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: can even have material without trauma?
• 36:05
  Speaker 6: Yes, I think we have a spectrum of comedy and
• 36:08
  Speaker 6: we need. Simba was not trauma driven, and we love
• 36:12
  Speaker 6: Simbat and undeniably one of the funniest shout clean. Yeah,
• 36:16
  Speaker 6: he's healing. Yeah, clean comedy, I do think. So we
• 36:20
  Speaker 6: need we need, especially people of color. We can't all
• 36:23
  Speaker 6: be the color purple. We need some levity. We need
• 36:27
  Speaker 6: to have comedians who are lighthearted and do jokes about things.
• 36:30
  Speaker 6: Everybody doesn't have to be deep and you know that's
• 36:34
  Speaker 6: that's pretentious, you know, I think some of us need
• 36:36
  Speaker 6: we need. We ain't have a Carrot Top Like Carrot
• 36:39
  Speaker 6: Top is a millionaire in Vegas. We've never had a
• 36:43
  Speaker 6: comedian like that that can just be you know why
• 36:45
  Speaker 6: we always have to have the burden of walking around
• 36:48
  Speaker 6: being the heaviness.
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and brown, a certain privilege that comes with being.
• 36:53
  Speaker 6: A yeah, but we need one. We need somebody walking
• 36:57
  Speaker 6: around with props to you know.
• 36:59
  Speaker 9: And now talked us about how how junkies and prostitutes
• 37:02
  Speaker 9: assisted jama my mom.
• 37:04
  Speaker 6: The person she was dating at the time beat her.
• 37:07
  Speaker 6: She was pregnant and he left her for dead in
• 37:09
  Speaker 6: the park in Central Park. She was say, not much pregnant,
• 37:13
  Speaker 6: and it was the junkies and the prostitutes that were
• 37:16
  Speaker 6: around who took her to the hospital and saved her life.
• 37:19
  Speaker 6: So she's my mother is not a respective of persons.
• 37:22
  Speaker 6: She lives that Bible life like she feeds anybody. She
• 37:26
  Speaker 6: will she's all she's she's so wounded, but she will
• 37:29
  Speaker 6: never forget. She does not look down on anybody. And
• 37:31
  Speaker 6: so we were never allowed to do that. We could
• 37:34
  Speaker 6: never be make fun of somebody because you know, whatever
• 37:37
  Speaker 6: it was, she'd be like, not do that. She will
• 37:39
  Speaker 6: always say it was the prostitutes and the junkies, that's
• 37:42
  Speaker 6: what they called them, not the people. She was like,
• 37:44
  Speaker 6: those are the people who saved your brother's life. And
• 37:47
  Speaker 6: so we were raised to this. You know, that's how
• 37:50
  Speaker 6: we all are.
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: Everybody respect. When this becomes a movie or mini series,
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: is gonna be a drama y or a horror movie?
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: What the hell?
• 37:57
  Speaker 6: Non so dramedy? Drama developing a TV show? No, it's
• 38:00
  Speaker 6: gonna be a drama. We gotta laugh at we gotta.
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: Laugh at it. How difficult was it to write this?
• 38:05
  Speaker 6: It was hard as hell?
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: How long did it take?
• 38:08
  Speaker 6: Because I wrote my own book, there's no no ghostwriter.
• 38:10
  Speaker 6: So the thing is it took me two and a
• 38:13
  Speaker 6: half years. But I've been working on that book for
• 38:15
  Speaker 6: seven years. But you don't, you know, like you say
• 38:17
  Speaker 6: you're going to write a book, because you got the
• 38:19
  Speaker 6: ideas and you got the stories. But when you start
• 38:22
  Speaker 6: writing them down in that publisher, that editor is like,
• 38:25
  Speaker 6: I need eighty thousand words, it becomes a whole different
• 38:28
  Speaker 6: You're like, damn, I could just tell you. When you
• 38:30
  Speaker 6: write the story down it's two pages. You're like, that's it.
• 38:33
  Speaker 8: I got it.
• 38:34
  Speaker 6: But now you gotta go in and you gotta details.
• 38:36
  Speaker 9: And it was.
• 38:38
  Speaker 6: It was one of the hardest things I ever did,
• 38:40
  Speaker 6: one of the greatest lessons for me not to take
• 38:43
  Speaker 6: anything for granted, because you know, authors, these authors have
• 38:47
  Speaker 6: been real snobby towards me, Like even people of color
• 38:50
  Speaker 6: that I've been I've reached out to and I've been
• 38:51
  Speaker 6: posting about their books, and they all been kind of
• 38:55
  Speaker 6: kind of like, kind of greasy with me. And it's
• 38:58
  Speaker 6: because I'm not a comedian stepping into their world and
• 39:01
  Speaker 6: they're like, here goes another one. They're gonna do a
• 39:03
  Speaker 6: book and then they're gonna bounce. And I was like, now,
• 39:06
  Speaker 6: I've been writing my whole life. My stand up is writing,
• 39:08
  Speaker 6: my TV shows are writing, you know, this book is writing,
• 39:11
  Speaker 6: the movies I've written. I'm a real writer, and I
• 39:14
  Speaker 6: don't need y'all validation because y'all gory for that. But
• 39:17
  Speaker 6: I understand that. You know, they do this all day long,
• 39:21
  Speaker 6: and then celebrities will come in do books, they do
• 39:23
  Speaker 6: the press, and then they out. They're like, that's just
• 39:25
  Speaker 6: one more notch on their belt. They don't really assume
• 39:29
  Speaker 6: the role of author where I could write. I could
• 39:32
  Speaker 6: write books until I die, like I would like to.
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: It's a good therapy of bad therapy because you have
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: to relive a lot of the stuff. I'm sure trauma
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: that you had since a kid. So sometimes you like
• 39:41
  Speaker 2: you push it out of your brain so you don't
• 39:43
  Speaker 2: have to think about it. But when you're writing a book,
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: you gotta dive deep into it. It can't just be
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: like two pages.
• 39:47
  Speaker 6: Like you said, it was traumatic to relive it, but
• 39:51
  Speaker 6: I needed to do it so I can heal, Like
• 39:53
  Speaker 6: I needed to forgive so I can move on, because
• 39:55
  Speaker 6: you know what, that's the thing about forgiveness. It's for you,
• 39:59
  Speaker 6: right think it's for the other person. I ain't forgiving them.
• 40:02
  Speaker 6: It's what do they say? You know? Revenge is like
• 40:05
  Speaker 6: drinking poison and hope, hoping the enemy dies. I needed
• 40:08
  Speaker 6: to forgive these people, like all of them, my stepfather,
• 40:12
  Speaker 6: the one who got his asked with on the bus
• 40:13
  Speaker 6: stop for being racist, Like I needed to just let
• 40:16
  Speaker 6: it go, and I want somebody else to read it
• 40:19
  Speaker 6: and also let it go, Like your life can be
• 40:22
  Speaker 6: so great when you forgive somebody. That doesn't mean you
• 40:24
  Speaker 6: got to hang out with them. You don't have to forget.
• 40:27
  Speaker 6: I choose to forget. But it just it's freedom.
• 40:30
  Speaker 9: I'm realizing forgiveness isn't linear though. No, it's not because
• 40:33
  Speaker 9: you got to. You got to remind yourself of ca
• 40:35
  Speaker 9: I forgave them, you know.
• 40:36
  Speaker 6: Yeah, you got and you got to accept it. Acceptance
• 40:39
  Speaker 6: is probably one of the hardest things we deal with.
• 40:42
  Speaker 6: People always say, love yourself, love yourself. You can love yourself.
• 40:45
  Speaker 6: Acceptance is where we thrive, right, being able to say,
• 40:50
  Speaker 6: I'm okay with the fact that I'm never gonna be
• 40:52
  Speaker 6: a size to again, you know what I mean? Like
• 40:54
  Speaker 6: that that is freedom for me instead of you know,
• 40:58
  Speaker 6: love is beautiful, but love what Tina Turner said, what's
• 41:01
  Speaker 6: love got to do with it? I think acceptance has
• 41:03
  Speaker 6: been the greatest journey for me. And yeah, I forgave them. People.
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: What are you writing the book teach you about illegitimacy.
• 41:10
  Speaker 6: You know, that illegitimacy and feeling that those feelings of
• 41:14
  Speaker 6: not feeling invalidated are crippling for most people. We all
• 41:19
  Speaker 6: battle with it, whether it's because you dark, dark skin,
• 41:22
  Speaker 6: or you don't speak English, you got you got an accent,
• 41:25
  Speaker 6: you're in a wheelchair. Like, we all struggle with it.
• 41:28
  Speaker 6: They can give it a term for every single sector
• 41:31
  Speaker 6: of it, but the truth is that we all battle
• 41:33
  Speaker 6: with it and we cannot give it to somebody else
• 41:37
  Speaker 6: to declare it for us. We cannot. That's my favorite
• 41:40
  Speaker 6: scene that Jerry maguire was when Regina King look Cuba
• 41:43
  Speaker 6: Gooding in the eye and said, we validate our worth.
• 41:47
  Speaker 6: And that was that was like the most powerful thing
• 41:49
  Speaker 6: I had seen at that age, because I was much younger.
• 41:52
  Speaker 6: You gotta validate your own worth. In comedy, you know,
• 41:56
  Speaker 6: people are always saying who they think is funny, who
• 41:58
  Speaker 6: is great? Who is you? Cannot anybody else tell you
• 42:01
  Speaker 6: who you are because if you let if you give
• 42:03
  Speaker 6: them the power to feed you, you give them the
• 42:04
  Speaker 6: power to starve you. That validation has to come from
• 42:07
  Speaker 6: with them.
• 42:08
  Speaker 2: I was gonna ask, you know, one of the producers
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: after reading the book was like, she has to hate
• 42:12
  Speaker 2: all men, like, damn, they all men did her dirty
• 42:15
  Speaker 2: in this book. So how do you feel about men
• 42:17
  Speaker 2: after you know them going through the process of a
• 42:19
  Speaker 2: lot of men that did you dirty, A lot of
• 42:21
  Speaker 2: men that would file to you.
• 42:24
  Speaker 6: Well, if you read the book, then you would see
• 42:26
  Speaker 6: that I adore my uncles. My uncle Carlos passed away
• 42:30
  Speaker 6: and my uncle Raymond. My uncles raised me. My uncles
• 42:33
  Speaker 6: together they were a transformer. They all got together and
• 42:36
  Speaker 6: they became the father that I needed. And they used
• 42:38
  Speaker 6: to be hustlers, they were on the streets, but they
• 42:41
  Speaker 6: have always been my heroes. I love men so much.
• 42:44
  Speaker 6: I made a great one. My son is an amazing
• 42:46
  Speaker 6: human being. And I don't hate men. And I hate
• 42:50
  Speaker 6: that the rhetoric, like all of this stuff that goes
• 42:52
  Speaker 6: on on social media with men and women, it is
• 42:55
  Speaker 6: so toxic and unnecessary. It's just the Biden conquered just
• 42:59
  Speaker 6: keeps getting deeper and deeper in terms of what happens
• 43:01
  Speaker 6: with our communities. I uphold man and I you know,
• 43:05
  Speaker 6: I hold them accountable. But I hold women accountable too.
• 43:08
  Speaker 6: You know, I'm not I'm not basic, So I don't
• 43:10
  Speaker 6: I don't delve in that man. As you know, it's
• 43:13
  Speaker 6: some men that are trash. It's a bunch of women
• 43:15
  Speaker 6: that are trashed too, you know, it's some non binary
• 43:18
  Speaker 6: people that are trash. Yeah, right, So everybody gets.
• 43:21
  Speaker 3: It, you know.
• 43:22
  Speaker 6: So I don't hate man.
• 43:24
  Speaker 2: I will don't move. We got more with Ida Rodriguez.
• 43:26
  Speaker 2: When we come back. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning
• 43:28
  Speaker 2: morning everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne, the Gud we are
• 43:31
  Speaker 2: the Breakfast Club. We're still kicking with Ida Rodriguez Charlamagne.
• 43:35
  Speaker 9: I think another thing people will learn from it, Like,
• 43:36
  Speaker 9: you know, growing up without your father's last name, how
• 43:39
  Speaker 9: do you feel after your mom told you why?
• 43:41
  Speaker 6: I felt worse because she gave it to me so casually.
• 43:44
  Speaker 6: She was so like cavalier about it, but it was
• 43:47
  Speaker 6: because that was what she knew. She grew up, she
• 43:49
  Speaker 6: didn't have her father's last name. You know. It was
• 43:51
  Speaker 6: like that just means you don't have your dad's last name.
• 43:53
  Speaker 6: Like it's all good. And for me it was a
• 43:55
  Speaker 6: stamp that it made me a victim to I thought
• 43:58
  Speaker 6: in my head that means I'm gonna get mistreated. People
• 44:01
  Speaker 6: know my father is not around because my idea of
• 44:03
  Speaker 6: a daddy was protection. You know, yeah, you know you're
• 44:09
  Speaker 6: very good you you you. I don't know if you
• 44:11
  Speaker 6: are in real life, but on social media, you know
• 44:16
  Speaker 6: what I'm saying. You know, people do it all for
• 44:18
  Speaker 6: the you know. But then because I put some people on,
• 44:28
  Speaker 6: I know, some some stories. But the thing was that
• 44:31
  Speaker 6: I thought that because that's what I thought a father was.
• 44:34
  Speaker 6: It made me feel vulnerable like I was like, now
• 44:36
  Speaker 6: anybody can do anything to me, you know whatever, And
• 44:39
  Speaker 6: it wasn't true. My grandmother was walking around with that
• 44:42
  Speaker 6: gun making sure that she protected us.
• 44:46
  Speaker 2: Your story is crazy, even even even having your mama
• 44:50
  Speaker 2: as a.
• 44:50
  Speaker 6: Whole, like, because you know what, that's what kids would
• 44:55
  Speaker 6: do when they when you're not, they see your mom
• 44:58
  Speaker 6: and then you know, in the hood, is everything get
• 45:00
  Speaker 6: fair game? When you're playing them dozens those kids would
• 45:03
  Speaker 6: be like, that's why your pappy got canceled, Like it's
• 45:07
  Speaker 6: the kids are evil.
• 45:09
  Speaker 9: Crackhead son, the job, Your daddy was a crackhead, Your
• 45:13
  Speaker 9: mothery crackhead son, crackheadaughter.
• 45:14
  Speaker 6: Yeah, that's how we process the pain, that's how we
• 45:16
  Speaker 6: deal with it. And when somebody said that, Mama, the
• 45:20
  Speaker 6: creepiest thing about the whole thing was that the girl,
• 45:23
  Speaker 6: the lady who said my mama was a whole was
• 45:25
  Speaker 6: the biggest hole on the block, Like that's you, you know.
• 45:28
  Speaker 6: And she was talking about my mom because we she
• 45:31
  Speaker 6: thought that because her kids had the same father and
• 45:34
  Speaker 6: we didn't, that her she was better than my mom.
• 45:36
  Speaker 6: And I was like, how sad. Now that I'm an adult,
• 45:39
  Speaker 6: I'm like, what a sad existence that? That's where you
• 45:42
  Speaker 6: pop your collar, not something you did positive in the world.
• 45:45
  Speaker 6: But my kids got the same daddy and they got
• 45:48
  Speaker 6: their father's last name, so I'm better than you. And
• 45:51
  Speaker 6: I was like, nah, I was. That's when I started
• 45:54
  Speaker 6: snapping and I was like, no, g she's a whole.
• 45:57
  Speaker 2: Do you believe a host?
• 45:59
  Speaker 6: Well, you know, depends on who you allow. I mean
• 46:02
  Speaker 6: I always told my daughter, you determine your whole. Don't
• 46:04
  Speaker 6: you let the streets do it. You know what your
• 46:06
  Speaker 6: threshold is if we'll start allowing. I mean, that's very patriarchal.
• 46:09
  Speaker 6: That's where it's rooted in, and people men get to
• 46:12
  Speaker 6: call women holes all day long and assess their value
• 46:14
  Speaker 6: while they're out there hoing, spreading diseases, doing all kinds
• 46:18
  Speaker 6: of stuff. Not all men, but y'all know ye what
• 46:20
  Speaker 6: I'm talking about. So yeah, so I think that if
• 46:23
  Speaker 6: you're gonna use holes it, let it be across the board.
• 46:26
  Speaker 6: But because we use it, I mean, I'm not getting
• 46:34
  Speaker 6: come up here and act like I'm pious, like I'm
• 46:37
  Speaker 6: some you know, we don't do that. We been calling
• 46:40
  Speaker 6: people hose too, But we talk about dudes like we
• 46:43
  Speaker 6: talk about women. Were not. We're not just sitting here.
• 46:47
  Speaker 13: You know.
• 46:47
  Speaker 6: Women love to do that too, because women, they have
• 46:50
  Speaker 6: socialized us to hate each other. So when we we
• 46:52
  Speaker 6: love to call other women you know, I'm not like that,
• 46:55
  Speaker 6: Yes you are. You've had your moments stop it.
• 46:58
  Speaker 9: Yeah, I gotta be blyd Like God'll be like, oh hold,
• 47:01
  Speaker 9: I'd be like, oh you hit no.
• 47:04
  Speaker 6: Man that my partner said, yeah, it's talked about. The
• 47:09
  Speaker 6: thing is like do you really care? Like, honestly, the
• 47:13
  Speaker 6: thing about social media that's really been my management is
• 47:17
  Speaker 6: always like, you're really terrible at social media. And I
• 47:20
  Speaker 6: but I'll say this, like I'm always watching people like
• 47:22
  Speaker 6: the people who are Like, I'm letting.
• 47:25
  Speaker 2: The haters know nobody cares like people.
• 47:29
  Speaker 6: Who are, Like I'll show them who you showing. People
• 47:33
  Speaker 6: will look at it they'll comment, they'll talk about it,
• 47:35
  Speaker 6: and then they move on to the next thing because
• 47:37
  Speaker 6: it's they're consuming it, like the ritos. They don't care.
• 47:40
  Speaker 6: You put so much effort into shutting your haters down.
• 47:44
  Speaker 6: God blessed James Hannah, a brilliant comedian who passed away.
• 47:47
  Speaker 6: He used to say people of colors haters are their
• 47:50
  Speaker 6: imaginary friends, because it was like they don't exist. He
• 47:55
  Speaker 6: was like, it's you know, we put so much, we
• 47:57
  Speaker 6: put so much weight on that. Do you really care?
• 48:00
  Speaker 6: Is something I don't care? Who's a whole? Like they
• 48:02
  Speaker 6: talk about j Lo all the time, and I'm like,
• 48:06
  Speaker 6: what does it? How does that affect my food? Like
• 48:08
  Speaker 6: how does that affect my mama? Give a damn? Like
• 48:11
  Speaker 6: it's it's far. It's for a minute, and then you
• 48:14
  Speaker 6: move on. So just remember when you are directing all
• 48:18
  Speaker 6: that energy to the people who you really think you're
• 48:21
  Speaker 6: shutting down, they don't care. Nobody cares.
• 48:24
  Speaker 9: That's right now, it's almost the holidays. These memoirs cause problems.
• 48:29
  Speaker 9: Oh yeah, how does your family feel about you revealing
• 48:32
  Speaker 9: so much.
• 48:32
  Speaker 1: In the book.
• 48:33
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I don't know. I think the only people who
• 48:35
  Speaker 6: read the book so far my aunt and uncle, the
• 48:38
  Speaker 6: normal ones that are in DC, because the half of
• 48:41
  Speaker 6: my family is in Florida and the other half is
• 48:44
  Speaker 6: in like the DC Virginia and the DMV okay Z ANDV. Yeah,
• 48:48
  Speaker 6: they're the normal ones, so they're cool. They all right.
• 48:51
  Speaker 6: I'm gonna read the I'm gonna sit with my mom
• 48:53
  Speaker 6: and go through the book because I want to make
• 48:55
  Speaker 6: sure that my mom is in Yeah. I can't.
• 48:57
  Speaker 9: I don't.
• 48:58
  Speaker 6: I don't ever want to demonize her. So I want
• 49:00
  Speaker 6: her to understand where that came from. And I'm gonna
• 49:02
  Speaker 6: read the back first with her because you know, I
• 49:05
  Speaker 6: give her grace throughout the book, but I want her
• 49:07
  Speaker 6: to know that she's still the queen.
• 49:09
  Speaker 2: Wow, are you dreading that conversation?
• 49:12
  Speaker 6: It needs to be had. She still has to be accountable.
• 49:14
  Speaker 6: She was still my mom, you know, like I still did.
• 49:17
  Speaker 6: I still went through a lot of stuff in life,
• 49:19
  Speaker 6: you know, as a kid, and she should you know,
• 49:22
  Speaker 6: she's she said to me, I'm so sorry for the
• 49:24
  Speaker 6: things that I put you through. I was I was
• 49:26
  Speaker 6: a kid. But you know, I think it's it's a
• 49:29
  Speaker 6: necessary conversation for us to heal. She needs to forgive
• 49:33
  Speaker 6: her mother. She's still holding onto things about my grand
• 49:35
  Speaker 6: and my grandmother is dead. I'm like, bro, you gotta
• 49:38
  Speaker 6: let it go. Like she's she's gone, you know, and
• 49:41
  Speaker 6: you just you have to move on.
• 49:43

• 49:45
  Speaker 9: free and than apology from your parents.
• 49:47
  Speaker 6: I got it.
• 49:49
  Speaker 9: That's why I say I apologize now as a father
• 49:52

• 49:54
  Speaker 9: I felt.

  Speaker 6: And amnesia? Like mom used to beat my ass, and
• 50:02
  Speaker 6: now when I talk about it, she's like, I never
• 50:04
  Speaker 6: hit you, And I'm like, what this is revisionist history
• 50:09
  Speaker 6: at its best. She used to beat my I mean

  Speaker 6: I she she fractured my ankle. I wrote an there
• 50:16

  Speaker 6: So I'm developing the shows right now, and I'm getting
• 51:26

  Speaker 1: Make sure you go pick that up. And we got
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: Donkey of Today coming up next.
• 51:44
  Speaker 9: Man, I'm gonna tell you about a pastor who is
• 51:46
  Speaker 9: spreading more than the good Gospel. His name is Pastor
• 51:49
  Speaker 9: Ralph D. West and oh that D might stand for dirty.
• 51:52
  Speaker 9: He needs to come to the front of the congregation.
• 51:54
  Speaker 9: We would like to have a word with him this morning.
• 51:55
  Speaker 9: That's the breakfast club.
• 52:00
  Speaker 5: Damn he hogged.
• 52:03
  Speaker 2: It's start for Donkey of the King.
• 52:05
  Speaker 1: I mean trying to beat donkey today.
• 52:07
  Speaker 2: No more.
• 52:07
  Speaker 9: They should be embarrassed by what they already did. I'm
• 52:09
  Speaker 9: not making these people do these.
• 52:10
  Speaker 2: Days called donkey of the day. And it really caught
• 52:14
  Speaker 2: me off guard.
• 52:14
  Speaker 6: Damned Charlamagne who got the donkey out of day today?
• 52:19
  Speaker 9: Donkey today for Friday, October nineteenth goes to a Houston
• 52:22
  Speaker 9: pastor by the name of Ralph D. West and oh
• 52:25
  Speaker 9: that D might stand for dirty. See, most people go
• 52:27
  Speaker 9: to church and they expect the pastor to lay hands
• 52:30
  Speaker 9: on them. The laying on of hands is both a
• 52:33
  Speaker 9: symbolic and formal method of invoking the Holy Spirit, mostly
• 52:36
  Speaker 9: during baptisms and confirmations, healing services and blessings.
• 52:40
  Speaker 1: Well, Pastor Ralph D.
• 52:42
  Speaker 9: And oh that D might stand for dirty, was laying
• 52:45
  Speaker 9: more than them holy hands on people in his congregation.
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: Let's go to kPr C NBC two. For the report, Police.
• 52:51
  Speaker 5: Attorney Sean Murphy is speaking for his client, who a
• 52:54
  Speaker 5: jury found contracted genital herpes from Reverend Ralph D. West
• 52:58
  Speaker 5: the second after meeting a Facebook as seen here on
• 53:01
  Speaker 5: the Church without Wall's website, he's listed as the Eldridge
• 53:05
  Speaker 5: campus minister.
• 53:06
  Speaker 17: The things that we look at for cases like these
• 53:08
  Speaker 17: are essentially four things. If the defendant infected, and how
• 53:11
  Speaker 17: can we prove it, did he know he was infected?
• 53:14
  Speaker 17: And you know, how do we prove and do we
• 53:15
  Speaker 17: have evidence of that.
• 53:16
  Speaker 5: Not only does Murphy say they were able to prove
• 53:19
  Speaker 5: those facts, but also that wes Lyde when asked about
• 53:23
  Speaker 5: having herpes, and that he gave it to his client
• 53:25
  Speaker 5: after they had unprotected six in March of twenty eighteen.
• 53:29
  Speaker 17: She got an outbreak two or three days later when
• 53:32
  Speaker 17: Aiming got tested, and you know, from there able, you know,
• 53:35
  Speaker 17: through the medical records, able to identify that he was
• 53:38
  Speaker 17: the source of it, in part because she hadn't been
• 53:40
  Speaker 17: with anybody else she had had a prior negative test.
• 53:43
  Speaker 5: Murphy says subsequent conversation supported the claims.
• 53:47
  Speaker 2: When she asks you know where did this come from?
• 53:49
  Speaker 17: His response was his son's mother.
• 53:52
  Speaker 5: He adds there were also emails between West and his client.
• 53:55
  Speaker 17: Where she accuses him of knowing he had it, of
• 53:59
  Speaker 17: gave it to her, you know. And there's other allegations
• 54:03
  Speaker 17: about not caring about me.
• 54:04
  Speaker 2: That kind of thing.
• 54:06
  Speaker 1: Ralphie L.
• 54:07
  Speaker 9: Douglas West known as Pastor Ralph D and O to
• 54:10
  Speaker 9: D definitely stands for disgusting.
• 54:11
  Speaker 2: See, most pastors have a spiritual gift.
• 54:13
  Speaker 9: A pastor is God gifted to develop relationships with others
• 54:17
  Speaker 9: and then assume the responsibility for each member's spiritual welfare.
• 54:20
  Speaker 2: You would hope, you.
• 54:21
  Speaker 9: Would actually want, you would pray that the pastor spiritual
• 54:25
  Speaker 9: gift is indeed a gift that keeps on giving. But
• 54:27
  Speaker 9: note I said spiritual gift, not sexual. The sexual gift
• 54:31
  Speaker 9: that keeps on giving is herpes. Now I'm not here to.
• 54:34
  Speaker 1: Herpee shame anyone. Okay.
• 54:35
  Speaker 9: I did some research, and by research, I meant Google,
• 54:38
  Speaker 9: and it said over one hundred and ninety five million
• 54:40
  Speaker 9: people in America may have general herpees. So drop on
• 54:44
  Speaker 9: the clues bombs for all our listeners out there with
• 54:47
  Speaker 9: a bad case of the bubble nuts.
• 54:48
  Speaker 1: Okay, brothers, how y'all feel sisters? Y'all?
• 54:50
  Speaker 13: All?
• 54:51
  Speaker 12: Right?
• 54:51
  Speaker 9: I see you out there dealing with that herperenata one thousand,
• 54:54
  Speaker 9: all right, drop on the clues bombs for all the
• 54:56
  Speaker 9: ladies out there dealing with the herperinata one thousand.
• 54:58
  Speaker 1: Okay, it's time for heat. It's time for the her.
• 55:03
  Speaker 1: It's time for the her.
• 55:04
  Speaker 4: Now.
• 55:04
  Speaker 9: I know that pastor's love to do beneficial things for
• 55:07
  Speaker 9: their congregation see Pastor Ralph D.
• 55:09
  Speaker 1: And that D definitely stands for the Testable with doing.
• 55:12
  Speaker 9: What we call here at Hethaw missionary Baptist preaching and
• 55:16
  Speaker 9: skeeting all right, spending time with his cock, I mean
• 55:19
  Speaker 9: flock all right, leading with love, but clearly no glove.
• 55:22
  Speaker 9: The man was out here sharing herpes instead of sharing
• 55:25
  Speaker 9: the gospel. Do you know this man's church was called
• 55:29
  Speaker 9: the Church without walls. I'm not making this up people.
• 55:32
  Speaker 9: You heard it in the news report. They were called
• 55:33
  Speaker 9: the Church without Walls. I bet the woman that he
• 55:36
  Speaker 9: probably shared herpes with wish she didn't have walls either, okay,
• 55:40
  Speaker 9: because when that herpies gets inside, said.
• 55:42
  Speaker 2: Vagina, where do you think it's gonna go?
• 55:44
  Speaker 15: Huh?
• 55:45
  Speaker 1: Don't act stupid with me now.
• 55:46
  Speaker 9: It hurts when you pee because you got saws all
• 55:49
  Speaker 9: on your interario walls on your voba too, but definitely
• 55:52
  Speaker 9: on those walls. How convenient for you, pastor to have
• 55:55
  Speaker 9: a church without walls, But the woman you infected doesn't
• 55:58
  Speaker 9: have that luxury.
• 55:59
  Speaker 2: Can I get a bump bump bump from the congregation?
• 56:01
  Speaker 9: Put somebody out there right now dealing with a breakout,
• 56:04
  Speaker 9: and they understand exactly where I'm coming from.
• 56:06
  Speaker 2: Now, I need to ask all my Christians with herpes
• 56:09
  Speaker 2: one simple question.
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: Do you have faith? Do you believe that you can
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: be healed in Jesus' name?
• 56:15
  Speaker 9: Do you stand in front of the mirror genitals looking
• 56:18
  Speaker 9: like an oscar maya olive loaf and say, heal me
• 56:21
  Speaker 9: in Jesus' name. Well, let me be the first to
• 56:24
  Speaker 9: tell you. All prayers to heal herpes go to Jesus's
• 56:27
  Speaker 9: spam folder. All right, Jesus got much more present issues
• 56:31
  Speaker 9: to deal with than the bumps in the alley.
• 56:35
  Speaker 2: All right, your bumps into the alley can wait.
• 56:37
  Speaker 10: Now.
• 56:37
  Speaker 1: This is what I find.
• 56:38
  Speaker 9: Extremely interesting about this story, and it's something all God
• 56:41
  Speaker 9: fearing individuals can learn from. All of this could have
• 56:44
  Speaker 9: been avoided if all parties involved were actually living how
• 56:48
  Speaker 9: the Bible says you should live. Ain't that something? If
• 56:52
  Speaker 9: the pastor was simply living by the word of God,
• 56:55
  Speaker 9: he wouldn't be out here tithing and offering herpes to
• 56:57
  Speaker 9: people in his church.
• 56:58
  Speaker 1: What's that saying?
• 56:59
  Speaker 9: Sin is not simply making bad choices on mistakes. Sin
• 57:03
  Speaker 9: is having the desire in our hearts to do the
• 57:06
  Speaker 9: will of the enemy of God. You chose to do
• 57:10
  Speaker 9: the will of the enemy of God. Now they say,
• 57:13
  Speaker 9: no matter the decisions you've made, Jesus loves you and
• 57:17
  Speaker 9: will forgive you. It's a beautiful thing. But always remember
• 57:20
  Speaker 9: God forgives herpes.
• 57:22
  Speaker 2: Don't all right?
• 57:23
  Speaker 9: You gotta pay this woman two point five million dollars.
• 57:25
  Speaker 9: You know how much vowel tracks you can buy with
• 57:27
  Speaker 9: two point five million dollars. More importantly, Pastor Ralph D
• 57:30
  Speaker 9: and the D definitely stands for this nigga. Do you
• 57:33
  Speaker 9: know how much relief two point five million could provide
• 57:36
  Speaker 9: the members of your church? How many people in your
• 57:38
  Speaker 9: church praying for a blessing? And you out here spreading glitter? Yeah,
• 57:42
  Speaker 9: herpes is glitter because the comedian name Dmitri Martin once said,
• 57:45
  Speaker 9: the thing about glitter is if you get it on,
• 57:47
  Speaker 9: you be prepared to have it on you forever, because
• 57:50
  Speaker 9: glitter doesn't go away. Glitter is the herpes of craft supplies.
• 57:53
  Speaker 9: So if glitter is the herpes of craft supplies, then
• 57:56
  Speaker 9: herpes is just glitter. And that's what you was out
• 57:58
  Speaker 9: here putting on people. Do you know when people ask
• 58:01
  Speaker 9: to describe you in one word from now on, that
• 58:03
  Speaker 9: word is gonna be herpes. Personally, I think when you
• 58:07
  Speaker 9: give someone herpes and you get charged for giving them herpes,
• 58:09
  Speaker 9: and you and you have to give them two point
• 58:12
  Speaker 9: five million dollars or any type of settlement like that,
• 58:14
  Speaker 9: you should have to walk around in public with her
• 58:17
  Speaker 9: past belt, okay, from the makers of her mess.
• 58:20
  Speaker 2: You should have to wear her past belt.
• 58:21
  Speaker 9: Hit me out, okay, same concept, same look, same feel,
• 58:25
  Speaker 9: same H is just covered in tiny little clusters of
• 58:28
  Speaker 9: rubies all over the H to symbolize outbreaks.
• 58:32
  Speaker 1: Okay, and that lets everybody know that it's it's time
• 58:37
  Speaker 1: for the it's time. Please get past the ralph d
• 58:42
  Speaker 1: west to sweet sounds of the Hamiltons.

  Speaker 8: Oh no, you are.

• 58:57
  Speaker 12: Yee?
• 59:01
  Speaker 2: Now, Charlomagne, I gotta make one correction what you said.

• 1:00:23
  Speaker 9: sure for sure. Why do you feel that way other
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 9: than because it's you just lyrically.
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 8: I think I'm like above a lot of people. I
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 8: just don't get that credit just because I don't have
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 8: certain backing, I don't have certain things that you know,
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 8: all I might or I might just be a threat
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 8: to a lot of different You say that on the album, Yeah,
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 8: for sure, for sure.
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 9: So yeah, that's that's just what I feel. Explain my
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 9: favorite it Sunday. Then it's just basically me just growing
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 9: up in my grandmother's crib. My mom and father had
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 9: like addiction issues, and you know, they in the periods
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 9: of like breaking up and trying to figure it out.
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 9: I would go back to my grandmother's house. You know,
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 9: she was a little older raising me. But it was like, yo,
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 9: all right, I got three rules, school, Church, Sunday dinner,
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 9: you know, and I'm just picking up all of these
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 9: different personalities that I want to become and don't want
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 9: to become. Essentially everybody becomes, you know, an experience on
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 9: the album when you talk about rapping, you talk about
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 9: the way that you rap. You don't really hear that nowadays?
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 10: Right?
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 2: Does that bother you? Deter you from from from you
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 2: spitting because you know you don't really hear that much.
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 8: I used to be pissed off about it, but I
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 8: feel like my purpose and my story is just a
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 8: little different, you know. I feel like I'm meant to
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 8: be in this error just because maybe because it's lacking
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 8: in this time, and that's my job to kind of
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 8: carry on tradition in a way. I used to be
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 8: upset about it, but it doesn't bother me.
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 9: I disagree with what it be said, though, only because
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 9: when you look at the last decade or so with
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 9: hip hop, the top three rappers are all literally yeah
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 9: you know what I mean, and that's Cole, Kendrick and Drake.
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 2: And then you still got your wallets and your big Sean.
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 9: You had your nipsies, you know, you had sure like
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 9: all of those people rahaps these snaps, Like I think
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 9: all of those people dope Carolina.
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 2: So I just think sometimes it's just a matter of time.
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 2: I agree with that with that more have you have
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 2: you had your I made it moment yet I think
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 2: one of them I had.
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 8: I had a few moments that I'm like proud of.
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 8: I think like touring with like Nas and Lauren Hills,
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 8: it was like a good one for me. Yeah, just
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 8: the experience of it was like, it's dope.
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 9: You said that on the album and I'm like, I
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 9: missed when he was on tour with Lauren Hill. Was
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 9: the line when somebody missed that show?
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 5: When when she.
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 2: Had to do more songs, performed the whole album Jesus
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 2: to come out.
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 8: What was the you said you used to I used
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 8: to watch Sister Acts. My cousin passed away, like on
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 8: the field trip. So I wrapped about it on the
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 8: album and I remember everybody like just going to see him.
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 8: I didn't want to see him like that. This was
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 8: like my best friend. So I was like, heyo, I'm
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 8: gonna watch this movie. I'm gonna sit here and watch
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 8: this movie. I'm ten years old in the crib watching
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 8: this movie by myself. It kind of helped just get
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 8: me through that moment with that trauma. So yeah, when
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 8: I remember telling her about it on the tour, oh wow,
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 8: and just kind of she just kind of helped me
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 8: in that way. So I kind of felt like, you know,
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 8: it was it was, it was, It was a perfect time.
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 8: That was something I was running away from. A lot
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 8: of the stuff you hear on the album is like
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 8: a lot of just real life situations that I was
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 8: running from and I just finally had to like look
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 8: in the mirror and be like, yo, it's time.
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 9: So was it that moment on tour with Lauren remembering
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 9: yourself watching Sister that made you finally deal.
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 1: With the passing?
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 8: Absolutely? Absolutely? This this is an album that I wanted
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 8: to put out a mirror tell you, this is like
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 8: one of the albums I wanted to put out when
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 8: I first came out, but I don't. I don't think
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 8: I was like mature enough to tell it the way
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 8: that I'm telling it now. When I first came in,
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 8: I was, you know, like a wide eyed child. But
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 8: now I'm just in a place where I'm like, you know,
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 8: I'm matured enough. I'm thirty five now, so it's like.
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 6: Okay, and you still look younger.
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 9: You know what I mean?
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 2: Was it growth? Did you do some work on yourself?
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 8: Like absolutely, therapy for sure? For sure, Like you know,
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 8: you're not in control of anything for real, You're under
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 8: God's law and you got to find a way to
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 8: fit into that.
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 1: And I had to.
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 8: I had to, you know, figure that out, and I
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 8: just found found the courage and tell the story. Like
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 8: even when you listen to like the throw of the album,
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 8: it's like my mom, you know, my mom is like
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 8: yelling at a boyfriend, but you know, and it's and
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 8: it's it's a way that I never wanted the world
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 8: to see my mom. So it's like, all right, that's
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 8: the first step. The thing that I fear the most,
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 8: got to open the album, you know what I'm saying.
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 8: So God worked in a way to where it just
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 8: fit pertrictly on the album and open up the album.
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 6: So do you have a favorite song on their or
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 6: what song means the most? So yeah, I like that
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 6: what song makes you most emotional?
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 8: Most emotional? I think it's the intro about class, worry
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 8: about the classic, like just talking about all of that stuff.
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 8: And I remember going to like my neighborhood and I
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 8: remember he Wamir pulled up one day and he was like, Yo,
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 8: ain't a windows on these buildings. And the whole time
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 8: I lived there, I never really noticed that because it
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 8: was like normal to me. So those things, those little
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 8: things on the album was like things that I was
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 8: scared to face once again. And I kind of like
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 8: just put it together, kind of got it right.
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 9: That's a great record. And you say in the hook,
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 9: you say, I'm trying to get my people right. But
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 9: y'all worried about the classic explain that because I got
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 9: some thoughts. For me, it was it's like, Yo, I'm
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 9: like I'm going through like different things. I'm like mature
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 9: and I'm like finding myself. I'm going through like a
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 9: whole bunch of stuff, just family wise, career wise as well.
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 9: And while I'm going through these things, you get people
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 9: like yo when the album coming. When the album drop,
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 9: it like did you buy the last album?
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 8: So I'm going through this stuff, like through these different things,
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 8: and that's what that's what inspired like the hook, And
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 8: I'm just like seeing people like, you know, not to
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 8: be dark, but I'm just seeing people die young and
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 8: hearing about yo, people that I saw growing up like
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 8: leaving leaving us. So that was one of the things
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 8: that I just wanted to address. And it's like, yo,
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 8: I got like real life issues. And it's crazy because
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 8: I feel like I've made my best body of work,
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 8: not trying to make my best body of work.
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 9: Yeah, because I would think getting your people right would
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 9: be part of you making a classic record.
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 2: Like if you're make a classic and it takes off, that's.
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 8: Enough more money for sure.
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 1: You know, so you kind of do got to focus
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 1: on the album.
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 8: Absolutely, you do, you do. But I feel like the
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 8: kind of person I am, the kind of artist I am,
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 8: you got to live life as well. You got to
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 8: live life, and you know.
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 6: That's what creates absolutely that class people. I mean, I
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 6: don't I would imagine. I'm not an artist, never been
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 6: a comedian. Yeah, but I'm saying like in form of music,
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 6: like I mean, I spit it a little upit of
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 6: the buzz too, but you know we're not need get.
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 2: Here all right, Wait, we'p being on anything. It's like, right, no,
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 2: what I'm saying.
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 6: I think you you would have to go through live
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 6: life and go through your trying times and challenges. That's
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 6: what makes the classic nobody goes in the studio like, yo,
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 6: I'm in the class of the day.
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 2: You don't want to tell the people tell you to.
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 8: Be moved by the spirit man, to be moved by
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 8: something bigger than you, you know, and me a lot
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 8: of times, it's all about just carrying the integrity in there.
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 8: Like I read something like that Quincy Jones said, He's like, yo,
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 8: when you think about money while you're creating, God walks
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 8: out of the rooms. You know, so you got to
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 8: you gotta keep that first, you gotta keep you know,
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 8: your story. The story is the most important. I feel
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 8: like your story is a superpower. And definitely I've never
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 8: really felt like that until.
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 12: It is out.
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 2: We got more with Nick Grant. When we come back,
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 2: it's the breakfast Club. Good morning, want everybody in Steve
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 2: j n V. Charlamagne to God. We are the breakfast
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 2: Club with kicking it with Nick Grant, Charlamagne.
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 1: Let's let's go to know your worth.
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 12: You know?
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 2: Another great record is that something you have to tell yourself.
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 8: Not constantly, but it was something like like I felt
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 8: like I have to like celebrate myself a little more
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 8: because it's like work, work, work, figure out my problems,
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 8: figure out the problems of the family, figure out all
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 8: this other you just having so much on my shoulders
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 8: to it was like, you know, yes, Like then when
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 8: I wrote it, I was like, Yo, it's something about
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 8: a black man just saying knowing you're worth and yeah,
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 8: you know, celebrating yourself and patting yourself on the back. Yes,
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 8: the smallest thing, because you still celebrate the smallest thing
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 8: in your journey.
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 2: So cause women say that often, you don't really hear
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 2: men say that, like we're for sure sure, But that's
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 2: that's the problem.
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 6: No, it ain't no little sassy know it.
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 2: Ain't you gotta know your worth.
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 6: Ain't nothing sassy about knowing your worth, just say it's
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 6: just that women. We like to say it a lot.
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 6: And sometimes women say it and don't even know they worth.
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 6: They just shouted because it's something to be said now.
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 6: But not knowing you worth, that's but all human beings
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 6: like you have.
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 8: To know for sure.
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 2: I want to jump to the record. Heaven, MM where
• 1:08:02

• 1:09:03
  Speaker 8: thing and I got. I'm not perfect, I got, I

  Speaker 9: my cousin from the beginning, like you're in the house,
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 9: it's like certain things that trigger.
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 8: Certain ones, trigger certain words and kind of yeah, helps
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 8: the album flow. You're doing homework, doing this own.

• 1:09:52
  Speaker 9: putting pressure on myself.
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 2: Really.
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 8: It's a lot of people that still don't know from
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 8: South Carolina, even though I waved the flag so heavily,
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 8: and you want influenced me with that in a way,
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 8: like even with coming out, like yo, you got a
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 8: whole state to yourself, like yeah, you gotta do that,
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 8: and those these are like my experiences, like even when
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 8: I went home, I shot a movie it's always love.
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 8: I shot a movie, like a short comedy for the album,
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 8: and just like the people and all the memories and
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 8: all the different things. And you got a few people
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 8: that's like, man, keep you know, repping the city, refer
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 8: South Carolina. Right, you're the one that kind of that's
• 1:10:25

  Speaker 8: I hear that for your parents, Yeah, it was, of
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 8: course it was. I threw a little bit of like,
• 1:10:32

• 1:10:34
  Speaker 8: I was going through in it. But yeah, it was, yeah,
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 8: for sure.
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 9: Because you don't if you feel you heard Mike's album

• 1:10:42
  Speaker 9: you know, basically he was saying that, you know that
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 9: there's no uh, I don't want to say celebratory way,
• 1:10:46
  Speaker 9: but when people are addicted, it's actually an addiction, like
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 9: it's something that's not something that should be looked down upon.
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 8: But sure, absolutely it's it's you know, disease, you know
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 8: what I'm saying. So like for me, it was, it
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 8: changed my life. I didn't see I didn't see it
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 8: that way at the time, Like I didn't see like

• 1:11:02
  Speaker 8: times because the back and forth. So we went on
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 8: council blessings, like, Yo, I went to thirteen schools by
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 8: the age of fourteen. Yeah, just because of just because

• 1:11:12
  Speaker 8: out and arguing and and you know, as I grew
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 8: older and kind of found myself, I was like, yo,

• 1:11:19
  Speaker 8: their own issues, they got their own things that they're fighting,

  Speaker 2: You feel like people look at you as a threat.
• 1:13:13

• 1:21:36
  Speaker 9: man Doug Melville. So salute to my gut, my guy
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 9: Doug Melville. And the positive note is simply this man,
• 1:21:42
  Speaker 9: be careful what you wish for uss, because it just
• 1:21:46
  Speaker 9: might get to you.
• 1:21:47
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 1:21:47
  Speaker 9: To wish bad things for somebody else is actually like
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 9: looking for something bad to happen to you. Because when
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 9: you wish bad karm on somebody else, you bring bad
• 1:21:56
  Speaker 9: karm on yourself. Okay, you are consuming and bringing in
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 9: negative vibes into your life.
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 2: Life.
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 9: Instead, be the person you wish they were, Be the
• 1:22:02
  Speaker 9: person who brings only positive thoughts and good vibes into
• 1:22:05
  Speaker 9: their own life, because being negative yourself will only bring
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 9: negative into your life. Don't poison yourself hoping somebody else
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 9: will die all right, have a great weekend.
