  Speaker 3: We got to go through it for a while, too.
• 1:03
  Speaker 5: Yeah, probably a year.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: If we had 15 minutes, you know, to just woosah
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: before the show, it'd be different.
• 1:12
  Speaker 4: But our woosah is when the show starts.

  Speaker 6: Correct.
• 1:15
  Speaker 4: It's not our fault. It's a 6-12. It's not like

  Speaker 4: There was traffic, right?

  Speaker 1: got in when we got in.

  Speaker 5: That's great.
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: We got a special guest joining us this morning.

  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 1:56
  Speaker 9: You know?
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: It's a salute to the brothers.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: Because them young brothers deal with a lot, man. You know,
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: there is no manual for this. Like, you know, when
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: you come from the environments that these brothers come from
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: and then achieve the levels of success that they do,
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: there's no manual that tells you how to do this right.
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: That's right.
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: You know? And there's no.
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: Manual to tell other people how to react to you.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: Because a lot of times, it's not you that change.
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: It's everybody around you.
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: That's right.
• 2:17
  Speaker 7: Yeah.

  Speaker 12: so many updates with that, so we'll be breaking that down. And,
• 2:26
  Speaker 12: of course, we've got front page news next with Mimi.
• 2:29
  Speaker 12: She'll be joining us. You see, I'm still a little

• 2:40
  Speaker 12: right now.
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: What are we starting the show with?

• 2:43
  Speaker 4: I'll tell you that much.
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: Oh, this is Skilla Baby right here.
• 2:45
  Speaker 5: Oh, okay.
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: This is Thick One. Yeah, Thick One, Skilla Baby, 4-2-Dub.
• 2:48
  Speaker 4: Thick One?
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Thick One.
• 2:50
  Speaker 12: Oh, first it said Thick One, then you said Thick One.
• 2:52
  Speaker 12: I'm still tired, man. I had to run up in
• 2:53
  Speaker 12: this building today.
• 2:55
  Speaker 9: 800-585-1051.
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: Get it off your chest. Front page news is next, y'all.
• 2:59
  Speaker 4: I can't put my.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: I can't, you know, place a guaranteed bet on this.
• 3:04
  Speaker 4: But I think Skilla Baby want the thick one.
• 3:05
  Speaker 5: He did. Yeah. He mean like fat girls? Like he
• 3:08
  Speaker 5: like the cushioners?
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: I was thinking about that because some of y'all out
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: there think you think you thick, but you really fat.
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: I don't think he meant overweight. I think he meant thick.
• 3:15
  Speaker 5: Well, you can be fat and not overweight.
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: And you can be thick and be fat because some
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: of y'all 5'6, 180 and your BMI is 29.0 and
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: that places you in the overweight category.
• 3:24
  Speaker 5: My bad, Evie. You know what? That's not true.
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: I can be fat, but not overweight. You're right.
• 3:29
  Speaker 5: You're right. I'm sorry. I'm thinking about the BMI chart,
• 3:32
  Speaker 5: and you're right. You're right. Nobody's supposed to be fat.
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: You know what?
• 3:35
  Speaker 5: Sorry. Shout out to fat listeners and the skinny listeners.
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: They don't like fat.
• 3:38
  Speaker 5: Oh, the listeners of size.
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: There you go. Listeners of size. There you go.
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: Morning, everybody.
• 3:43
  Speaker 12: We are The Breakfast Club. That was 4-2-Doug. Skilla Baby's
• 3:46
  Speaker 12: going to be joining us next hour.
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: What's up, Mimi?
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: What's up?
• 3:50
  Speaker 13: Good morning, everyone. How y'all doing this morning? Good morning.
• 3:55
  Speaker 13: So we started this morning in New York where a
• 3:58
  Speaker 13: woman is unfortunately dead after police say she randomly stabbed
• 4:02
  Speaker 13: two people in the middle of Times Square, killing one
• 4:04
  Speaker 13: of them. So police say the 49 year old woman,
• 4:07
  Speaker 13: she first attacked a 68 year old man who had
• 4:10
  Speaker 13: just gotten off the subway and was waiting for to
• 4:13
  Speaker 13: cross the street with his wife. Investigators say she pulled
• 4:16
  Speaker 13: out two knives from her bag and stabbed him in
• 4:19
  Speaker 13: the stomach. She then continued through Times Square where police
• 4:23
  Speaker 13: say she stabbed a 32-year-old woman also in the stomach. Now,
• 4:27
  Speaker 13: that woman later died. The man survived and he is
• 4:30
  Speaker 13: now in stable condition. Police say the woman then headed
• 4:34
  Speaker 13: toward the NYPD substation in Times Square, still armed with
• 4:38
  Speaker 13: both knives. Officers confronted her and repeatedly ordered her to
• 4:42
  Speaker 13: drop the weapons. Let's listen to NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch.
• 4:47
  Speaker 14: The officers engaged the woman in dialogue for four minutes
• 4:52
  Speaker 14: and gave her numerous commands to drop the knives, which
• 4:57
  Speaker 14: she refused. During the encounter, she told the officers, quote,
• 5:02
  Speaker 14: I'm not dropping anything. I would rather kill both of you.
• 5:06
  Speaker 14: The subject began waving the knives and advanced towards the officers.
• 5:10
  Speaker 14: Multiple officers discharged tasers, which proved to be ineffective, and
• 5:15
  Speaker 14: the subject continued to advance towards our officers with the knives.
• 5:21
  Speaker 14: Two officers then discharged their service weapons, striking the subject.
• 5:27
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 5:29
  Speaker 13: Um, police say she had a documented mental health history.
• 5:33
  Speaker 13: They do not believe this was connected to any terrorism.
• 5:36
  Speaker 13: The NYPD is now investigating the shooting and officials say
• 5:39
  Speaker 13: body camera video will eventually be released.
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: It is interesting, right?
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: Because it always feels like there's a time of year
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: when you're driving through New York City and you see
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: a lot more mentally ill people than usual. Yeah, for sure.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: It's like they open the door or something. I don't
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: know what it is, but there's always a season where
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: it seems like there's a lot more mentally ill people
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: walking down the street, yelling, screaming, and there's... What are
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: you supposed to do in that situation? She killed somebody.
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: She stabbed another person. Police tried to de-escalate it to
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: the best of their ability. What else were they.
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: Supposed to do?
• 6:09
  Speaker 12: And I wonder if there are any police officers heading
• 6:11
  Speaker 12: to work this morning. And I know you've probably seen
• 6:13
  Speaker 12: the video. what would you do in that situation because
• 6:15
  Speaker 12: I see a lot of people saying they didn't have
• 6:17
  Speaker 12: to kill her right because when they shocked her she
• 6:20
  Speaker 12: was running towards them but she wasn't running fast it
• 6:22
  Speaker 12: wasn't like a it was like the run was like
• 6:24
  Speaker 12: an 80 year old woman running like anybody could have
• 6:27
  Speaker 12: went back but she did have two knobs yeah but
• 6:30
  Speaker 12: she did have two knobs in her hand but it
• 6:32
  Speaker 12: was just I swear she was running.
• 6:33
  Speaker 6: Like this.
• 6:35
  Speaker 5: Oh, okay.
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: They could have moved out the way.
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: So I'm just curious.
• 6:39
  Speaker 12: I mean, they told her to put the knife down.
• 6:42
  Speaker 12: She was coming towards them, but she was mentally off.
• 6:45
  Speaker 12: You could tell she was mentally off. I'm just curious
• 6:47
  Speaker 12: if there's any police officers that's going to work this
• 6:50
  Speaker 12: morning or leaving work.
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: Listen, I thought about that, too. The first thing I thought, man,
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: they didn't have to kill her. And I still don't
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: think they had to kill her.
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: But, I mean, when you.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: Hear the cause and the effect and you hear the
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: whole circumstances that led to the shooting.
• 7:05
  Speaker 5: Hey, man. Yeah, I didn't see the video.
• 7:07
  Speaker 12: Yeah, I'm not judging, but I'm just curious that if
• 7:10
  Speaker 12: another way would have been able to.
• 7:12
  Speaker 5: Right, to restrain her.
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: She stabbed somebody.
• 7:14
  Speaker 6: She did.
• 7:14
  Speaker 4: She killed another person.
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: She did.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: She got two bloody knives. She tells you she's going
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: to kill you. They're shocking her. They're trying to de-escalate her.
• 7:20
  Speaker 5: I mean.
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: No, I understand. I totally understand.
• 7:22
  Speaker 12: I'm not saying that what they did wasn't justified, but
• 7:24
  Speaker 12: I'm just curious. because the way that she was coming
• 7:27
  Speaker 12: towards him it wasn't like aggressive like anybody could.
• 7:30
  Speaker 5: Have moved but it was after she had already taken
• 7:32
  Speaker 5: a light.
• 7:32
  Speaker 12: I know my 80 year old mom could have moved
• 7:34
  Speaker 12: out the way like she was moving that slow so
• 7:36
  Speaker 12: I'm just curious I'm not saying it's justified I'm not
• 7:38
  Speaker 12: saying that the police were wrong I'm just saying you
• 7:39
  Speaker 12: said your 80 year old mom could have moved out
• 7:42
  Speaker 12: the way my 80 year old mom definitely would have
• 7:44
  Speaker 12: got out of that way did you see the lady
• 7:45
  Speaker 12: running towards him which one the one that was getting
• 7:46
  Speaker 12: tased No, I said my 80-year-old mother would have been
• 7:49
  Speaker 12: able to get out the way.
• 7:50
  Speaker 5: To get away from her.
• 7:51
  Speaker 12: Get away from the lady stabbing somebody. She was running
• 7:53
  Speaker 12: so slow. That's what I was saying.
• 7:55
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 7:55
  Speaker 13: I don't know. And moving on really quickly, for all
• 7:59
  Speaker 13: of our truck drivers listening this morning, there's another major
• 8:02
  Speaker 13: crackdown happening in your industry. So the Trump administration. is
• 8:06
  Speaker 13: going after commercial driver-licensed schools. It says are putting unqualified
• 8:11
  Speaker 13: drivers on the road. So Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy says
• 8:14
  Speaker 13: more than 100 schools have now been shut down. Let's
• 8:17
  Speaker 13: listen really quickly.
• 8:19
  Speaker 15: What we are announcing is an emergency executive shutdown of
• 8:25
  Speaker 15: 110 driving schools. So these are driving schools that account
• 8:32
  Speaker 15: for 5,000 of the violations.
• 8:35
  Speaker 4: For English proficiency.
• 8:37
  Speaker 15: You have to speak English to operate a commercial motor vehicle.
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: I didn't create that rule. President Trump didn't create that rule.
• 8:44
  Speaker 15: That rule has been in place for decades.
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: We have schools that know.
• 8:48
  Speaker 15: The rule and still pass people through their school who
• 8:51
  Speaker 15: can't speak the language.
• 8:53
  Speaker 5: I did not know that.
• 8:53
  Speaker 8: The reason why I know that is because of my husband,
• 8:55
  Speaker 8: but there.
• 8:55
  Speaker 5: Are a great number of truck.
• 8:58
  Speaker 8: Drivers in Mexico who speaks English and not Spanish.
• 9:01
  Speaker 5: Thank you.
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: He don't speak Spanish?
• 9:02
  Speaker 5: No, he does not. He's black first.
• 9:04
  Speaker 8: Now listen, there are a wide number of drivers who
• 9:09
  Speaker 8: do not speak English and they can't read the signs.
• 9:12
  Speaker 8: A lot of them don't even know not to go
• 9:15
  Speaker 8: under bridges that are lower than their truck.
• 9:17
  Speaker 5: You know what I mean?
• 9:19
  Speaker 13: And that's the point right there, Jess. That's the point
• 9:21
  Speaker 13: right there. Duffy says that they've also shut down another
• 9:24
  Speaker 13: 160 driving schools for violations, including having unlicensed instructors. So therefore,
• 9:30
  Speaker 13: you would have a teacher who's not even licensed teaching
• 9:33
  Speaker 13: another driver how to get their license.
• 9:35
  Speaker 5: And so.
• 9:36
  Speaker 13: They said that they shut down those 160 schools. But,
• 9:39
  Speaker 13: you know, having these many truck drivers not on the
• 9:42
  Speaker 13: road will impact all of us. They said about 26,000
• 9:47
  Speaker 13: commercial truck drivers have been taken off the road. So that,
• 9:50
  Speaker 13: you know, someone bringing your groceries, your packages, the gas
• 9:53
  Speaker 13: headed to your local station, you know, at some point
• 9:56
  Speaker 13: we will feel some of this.
• 9:58
  Speaker 5: It definitely hurts the industry. for sure.
• 10:00
  Speaker 8: And then it messes up all the legit schools and
• 10:04
  Speaker 8: all the, you know, all the drivers who can speak
• 10:06
  Speaker 8: English and, you know, who are bilingual and trilingual and
• 10:08
  Speaker 8: all those things.
• 10:09
  Speaker 5: It's bad.
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: You can tell what you and Crispin Pillow talking about.
• 10:13
  Speaker 5: You know what?
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: You know what?
• 10:14
  Speaker 5: Damn, that's crazy. I happened to know this before Mimi
• 10:16
  Speaker 5: spoke this, so shut up.
• 10:18
  Speaker 4: Crisp's like, yeah, man, you know... My cousin, Alexaron. What's
• 10:21
  Speaker 4: his name? Alexaron? Alexaron.
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: What is that?
• 10:23
  Speaker 10: Alvarado.
• 10:24
  Speaker 4: You should have said Alejandro. I don't know.
• 10:26
  Speaker 5: You do have a cousin named Alvarado who drives trucks.
• 10:28
  Speaker 6: See?
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: He can't speak English.
• 10:29
  Speaker 5: In Mexico, though, so shut up. He don't need to
• 10:31
  Speaker 5: speak English, so shut up. All right, y'all.
• 10:35
  Speaker 13: Well, coming up at 7, one man is back behind bars.
• 10:38
  Speaker 13: And wait until you hear what keeps getting him arrested.
• 10:41
  Speaker 13: We're going to talk about it in the next hour.

  Speaker 3: Get it off your chest, brother.
• 12:39
  Speaker 6: Okay, listen.
• 12:39
  Speaker 9: I'm annoyed this morning because I'm seeing all this coverage
• 12:43
  Speaker 9: with Vlad and Drink Champs. Sean, let me ask you
• 12:47
  Speaker 9: a question. Is Drink Champs still a part of.
• 12:50
  Speaker 6: Black Effect Network? Yes, sir.
• 12:51
  Speaker 4: Yes, sir.
• 12:53
  Speaker 9: Okay, I'm having a problem with Black running his mouth
• 12:59
  Speaker 9: all over Nori and Drink Champs, stating a whole bunch
• 13:03
  Speaker 9: of unfounded information that I feel like if he's not
• 13:07
  Speaker 9: a part of Black Effect, he has no idea what
• 13:10
  Speaker 9: he's talking about. And I'm at this point now, I'm
• 13:13
  Speaker 9: getting annoyed with this guy because he thinks he's got
• 13:15
  Speaker 9: some cachet. because of this whole thing with the Tupac
• 13:19
  Speaker 9: thing and the Keefie D interview, and now the Keefie
• 13:22
  Speaker 9: D is going to sound guilty.
• 13:23
  Speaker 6: He feels like he's invited.
• 13:25
  Speaker 9: To the cookout forever, and I'm straight up annoyed with
• 13:29
  Speaker 9: this guy. He's really coming off as a culture vulture.
• 13:32
  Speaker 6: At this point. I'm really annoyed with this dude. I
• 13:35
  Speaker 6: hope it's covered with Lauren.
• 13:38
  Speaker 9: LaRosa in her news breakdown today. Maybe even Doc here today.
• 13:44
  Speaker 9: Maybe take it to Breakfast Club Court.
• 13:47
  Speaker 8: I don't know.
• 13:47
  Speaker 6: But something needs to be said about.
• 13:50
  Speaker 9: What's going on here between Vlad and Norrie because I
• 13:54
  Speaker 9: feel like he's running his mouth crazy.
• 13:57
  Speaker 6: No, he did.
• 13:58
  Speaker 9: But he did in terms of refusing the interview. But
• 14:00
  Speaker 9: it's gone too far now. Somebody's got to step in
• 14:04
  Speaker 9: and call this nonsense out.
• 14:06
  Speaker 6: Somebody's got to step in.
• 14:07
  Speaker 9: Shaw, I hope it's you.
• 14:09
  Speaker 6: If not, take it to breakfast club court or something.
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 14:12
  Speaker 9: Somebody needs to step in here.
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: Because this is getting ridiculous now.
• 14:16
  Speaker 6: Because drink champs. is a part of the culture for.
• 14:20
  Speaker 9: Real, for real. He's only hot because of these outlandish
• 14:24
  Speaker 9: energies that he gets with these wild rappers.
• 14:27
  Speaker 6: And celebrities or whatever, but... I'm sorry. I feel like
• 14:32
  Speaker 6: a side needs to be chosen at this point because
• 14:35
  Speaker 6: this is noise. This is Drink Champs. This is history.
• 14:39
  Speaker 9: He's got way more cachet in the culture than Vlad
• 14:43
  Speaker 9: can ever have.
• 14:44
  Speaker 6: That's just my thought.
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: We respect your opinion. Drink Champs is a very successful podcast.
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: Vlad TV is a very successful podcast. you know a
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: platform as well and i hope that you know both
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: of them can work out whatever differences they're having.
• 14:56
  Speaker 12: I don't even know what the hell is going on
• 14:58
  Speaker 12: but i will say this though they are both part
• 15:00
  Speaker 12: of the culture right you know just because vlad is
• 15:02
  Speaker 12: white doesn't make it not part of the culture vlad
• 15:04
  Speaker 12: started off as a dj did the mixtape game and
• 15:06
  Speaker 12: i was doing the mixtape game a long time.
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: Ago so I hope both of them work it out.
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: I'm going to be honest. I just don't like the
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: way we talk to each other.
• 15:14
  Speaker 5: What the hell happened?
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: I don't even know what happened. We be talking crazy
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: to each other. And it's like... I just don't like
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: the way we talk to each other.
• 15:23
  Speaker 5: Like black people.
• 15:25
  Speaker 4: No, just those individuals.
• 15:27
  Speaker 5: Oh, they ain't going back and forth.
• 15:29
  Speaker 4: I don't like it. I don't like it.
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: It's like calling each other out the name and all
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: of that because that.
• 15:34
  Speaker 4: To me, only can lead to one thing.
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: Absolutely.
• 15:38
  Speaker 4: And I don't like that.
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: And I think that sometimes we think that because we're
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: adults that there's not consequences involved.
• 15:45
  Speaker 4: To our actions.
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: They're not consequences to our words just because it hasn't happened.
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: Just because you ain't gotten to a fight in a
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: long time don't mean that it can't happen.
• 15:55
  Speaker 4: I just don't like the energy.
• 15:56
  Speaker 12: But I also feel like It's the clicks and likes
• 15:59
  Speaker 12: which make people get more and more disrespectful, right?
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: You know what I mean? Because you're not going to
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: say that in somebody's face, right?
• 16:04
  Speaker 12: If y'all are crossing each other, there's no way, however
• 16:07
  Speaker 12: far you want.
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: To go, you're not going to say that in somebody's face.
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: It's not going to happen. It's not going to happen.
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: I really don't know what happened.
• 16:13
  Speaker 4: I just hope they work it out. I hope they
• 16:14
  Speaker 4: figure it out.
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: I hope so, too.
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: Get it off your chest.

  Speaker 4: I'm going to be honest with you. My spirit ain't moved. Yeah, absolutely.
• 19:07
  Speaker 4: My discernment says no. And you know.
• 19:09
  Speaker 5: Because she said she wanted to take her sister to
• 19:11
  Speaker 5: play bingo, honey.
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: After she took the direct shot, like she just put
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: out there and then Charlamagne didn't respond. She's like, no, Charlam,
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: I'm talking to you.
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: No, that's not a direct shot. She hears the thing
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: about me. I don't just give money just because. If
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: you see me giving money, it's because... God said, you know,
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: bless that individual.
• 19:26
  Speaker 4: And your move. Yes.
• 19:27
  Speaker 5: Your move.
• 19:29
  Speaker 4: That didn't move me at all.
• 19:30
  Speaker 8: Well, she thought she was going to get us when
• 19:32
  Speaker 8: her grandmother died in December and her sister not talking
• 19:34
  Speaker 8: to her. And it's her birthday today and she wanted
• 19:36
  Speaker 8: to take her to bingo because it's $ 20 to get
• 19:38
  Speaker 8: in and she turned 55.
• 19:39
  Speaker 4: That's what happened?
• 19:39
  Speaker 6: Mm-hmm.
• 19:40
  Speaker 4: Damn, I ain't hear a letter. All I heard was bingo.
• 19:42
  Speaker 5: Oh, you heard what it was.
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: This is her grandmother past.
• 19:44
  Speaker 4: But I'm going to choose.
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: Some things move you and you feel like it.
• 19:47
  Speaker 9: Right.
• 19:48
  Speaker 5: That's crazy. Don't ever look at me typing. To see
• 19:50
  Speaker 5: if I'm typing your cash in.
• 19:51
  Speaker 4: And I'm always typing something.
• 19:53
  Speaker 5: She said, I thought Charlamagne was going to pull his
• 19:54
  Speaker 5: phone out and type it in. I'm waiting for you
• 19:57
  Speaker 5: to type in Charlamagne.
• 19:58
  Speaker 4: So you can send me something.
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: Not for bingo. Not for bingo.
• 20:01
  Speaker 4: Not even bingo. God just didn't move me. Nah, for
• 20:03
  Speaker 4: me it.
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: Wasn't for bingo.
• 20:04
  Speaker 5: Because it ain't for bingo.
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: If you needed some food, you needed help with some bills,
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: I get it.
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: I do everything through the Spirit. You know, sometimes it
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: might be bills and God don't move me.
• 20:12
  Speaker 4: That's right.
• 20:13
  Speaker 5: That's right. Because it might be your fault that you
• 20:15
  Speaker 5: couldn't pay this month.
• 20:16
  Speaker 10: Something.
• 20:17
  Speaker 5: It's up to you.
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: Not for bingo.
• 20:18
  Speaker 5: It's on your spirit.
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: I just want to let y'all know.
• 20:20
  Speaker 5: I did not know it cost money to get bingo.
• 20:22
  Speaker 12: If you charge $ 20 to get in for bingo, then
• 20:24
  Speaker 12: let's say bingo makes $ 3, 000, $ 4, 000, and they give it
• 20:27
  Speaker 12: back to the people.
• 20:28
  Speaker 5: That's how you win the prize.
• 20:29
  Speaker 4: Goddamn bingo game, $ 4, 000. You don't win $ 1, 000, $ 4, 000.
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: You might win $ 100 a game, $ 400 a game, $ 200
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: a game. Why do you think all them old people
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: were always there?
• 20:36
  Speaker 5: Now I know. I thought they just liked to be around. Yeah,
• 20:39
  Speaker 5: they want to be around each other.
• 20:40
  Speaker 3: And they got big old casinos now, too, so you
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: can go to a casino and play bingo.
• 20:43
  Speaker 8: But obviously, if this is true, the pot gets bigger
• 20:46
  Speaker 8: the more people that come, the pot is bigger to win.
• 20:48
  Speaker 6: Correct.
• 20:48
  Speaker 4: So that's what's up.
• 20:49
  Speaker 10: All right.
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: Get it off your chest.
• 20:50
  Speaker 5: 800-585-1051.
• 20:51
  Speaker 12: Now, we got the latest for Lauren coming up.

• 21:24

• 21:26
  Speaker 17: everything and everything.

  Speaker 2: On The Breakfast Club.
• 21:33
  Speaker 5: If little brown girls look at you and go, I
• 21:35
  Speaker 5: want to be like you.
• 21:35
  Speaker 4: LL Cool B. Talk to me.
• 21:38
  Speaker 5: Good morning, guys.
• 21:39
  Speaker 3: What's up, Laura?
• 21:40
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 21:41
  Speaker 17: Hey, so, okay, let's head over to Vegas. The Tupac
• 21:44
  Speaker 17: murder trial has been going down. This is 30 years
• 21:48
  Speaker 17: later after, you know, the killing of Tupac. And there
• 21:51
  Speaker 17: was a verdict yesterday.
• 21:53
  Speaker 5: Keefie D., Dwayne Keefie D.
• 21:56
  Speaker 17: Davis, was found guilty of plotting the drive-by shooting that
• 21:59
  Speaker 17: killed Tupac. He was convicted of murder with a deadly
• 22:01
  Speaker 17: weapon with the intent to promote and further assist a
• 22:04
  Speaker 17: criminal gang. So he now faces the possibility of spending
• 22:06
  Speaker 17: the rest of his life behind bars At 63 years old. Now,
• 22:11
  Speaker 17: they you could yesterday when they were doing the closing statements,
• 22:14
  Speaker 17: you could watch it live. And there was a moment
• 22:16
  Speaker 17: there's no audio to hear because you can't hear her.
• 22:18
  Speaker 17: But there was a moment where Tupac's sister, the camera
• 22:20
  Speaker 17: pans to her as they're reading the guilty verdict. And
• 22:24
  Speaker 17: she reaches back and holds like another family member's hand.
• 22:27
  Speaker 17: There's a reporter. There was a reporter inside the courtroom
• 22:29
  Speaker 17: that is reporting that, like, you know, she was crying
• 22:31
  Speaker 17: softly and it was very emotional.
• 22:32
  Speaker 5: For the family.
• 22:33
  Speaker 17: But prosecutors argued that Kifidi planned the shooting after Tupac's
• 22:38
  Speaker 17: entourage attacked his nephew, a few hours earlier at the
• 22:41
  Speaker 17: MGM Grand in Vegas following that Tyson fight.
• 22:44
  Speaker 5: So we've heard this story.
• 22:46
  Speaker 17: But what they point to specifically is the book that
• 22:48
  Speaker 17: Keefie D wrote.
• 22:50
  Speaker 4: What they point to.
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: Is Keefie D telling everybody that he was involved in
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: the murder of Tupac Shakur.
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: He deserved that one. He earned it.
• 22:58
  Speaker 4: He definitely earned that one. He earned every bit of this.
• 23:01
  Speaker 5: He deserved that one.
• 23:02
  Speaker 4: He worked for it. He actually went out there and
• 23:04
  Speaker 4: worked hard for it.
• 23:04
  Speaker 3: It took a long time, too.
• 23:06
  Speaker 17: No, but look, they say, so it was the book.
• 23:08
  Speaker 17: Then you got their different interviews that they pointed to
• 23:10
  Speaker 17: throughout the trial. But then they said that in 2008,
• 23:13
  Speaker 17: when they were investigating the death of Biggie, right, they
• 23:17
  Speaker 17: went to him to ask some questions because he was
• 23:19
  Speaker 17: connected in some way to that.
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 23:22
  Speaker 17: And when they're asking him questions, he began telling them
• 23:24
  Speaker 17: about details of Tupac's shooting that they say only someone
• 23:27
  Speaker 17: who was in that white car would have been able
• 23:30
  Speaker 17: to describe that. But they say over the years, things
• 23:33
  Speaker 17: did change with his stories. Like it wasn't as consistent,
• 23:35
  Speaker 17: but it was because he started trying to protect himself eventually,
• 23:38
  Speaker 17: but it was too late.
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: He did a book.
• 23:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: Multiple interviews.
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: You appear in a TV documentary. You do a book
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: where you openly talk about orchestrating the shooting and supplying
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: the gun. You did numerous Vlad TV interviews as well
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: as podcasts.
• 23:52
  Speaker 4: Like, what are we talking about?
• 23:54
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 23:54
  Speaker 3: He earned that one. He deserved that one.
• 23:56
  Speaker 5: He got it.
• 23:57
  Speaker 4: He wanted it.
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: He got it.
• 23:58
  Speaker 4: Did he do that interview under what they call it?
• 23:59
  Speaker 4: A proffer agreement?
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: Where they said that law enforcement promised him his statements
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: couldn't be directly used against him in court.
• 24:06
  Speaker 4: Surprise! Psych!
• 24:08
  Speaker 5: He didn't know that it could be used in a
• 24:09
  Speaker 5: state trial. He had it all wrong. Yeah, that's when
• 24:11
  Speaker 5: they was asking him about the Biggie stuff. I don't know.
• 24:13
  Speaker 5: This man is crazy.
• 24:14
  Speaker 4: He earned every bit of this.
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: At the end of the trial, I don't know if
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: you've seen, did you hear what he was like? He
• 24:19
  Speaker 3: was like, all right, well, Your Honor, can I have
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: my stuff back? Can I have my laptop back and
• 24:24
  Speaker 3: my phone back? And I want to appeal.
• 24:26
  Speaker 4: We like... What?
• 24:28
  Speaker 5: What did he think the end game was going to be?
• 24:30
  Speaker 5: I mean, like, what did he expect?
• 24:33
  Speaker 17: Well, on his side of it, they're basically arguing that, like,
• 24:36
  Speaker 17: the accounts and the things that he was saying doesn't
• 24:39
  Speaker 17: make him responsible for things. But when they were in
• 24:42
  Speaker 17: the trial, they were talking about, like, all the stuff
• 24:44
  Speaker 17: that they found in his house. Like it was low key,
• 24:46
  Speaker 17: like a shrine. Like he kept certain receipts. Like it
• 24:48
  Speaker 17: was just weird. He literally did it to himself. Um,
• 24:52
  Speaker 17: but do you guys think, I mean, it's all these
• 24:54
  Speaker 17: years later, but do you guys think that this finally
• 24:55
  Speaker 17: does give a Tupac's family a sense of peace?
• 25:00
  Speaker 12: I mean, you would have to ask. Three people in
• 25:03
  Speaker 12: the car that was in the car that night are dead.
• 25:05
  Speaker 12: And now Keefie D is in jail.
• 25:07
  Speaker 3: I mean, I'm sure.
• 25:08
  Speaker 4: Nothing brings your loved one back.
• 25:10
  Speaker 5: Yeah, nothing at all. Even all these years later.
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: Because all you think about is what his life would
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: have been like the past 30 years. And you're constantly
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: reminded of him because he's such an iconic figure.
• 25:19
  Speaker 4: So you'll never truly have, you know, peace.
• 25:23
  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 25:24
  Speaker 10: Yeah.
• 25:25
  Speaker 17: Well, over on the West Coast to Dirk and that
• 25:28
  Speaker 17: trial also going down. I saw Dirk's dad. First of all,
• 25:31
  Speaker 17: outside of the court yesterday was just mayhem. I mean,
• 25:34
  Speaker 17: as it always has been. But yesterday seemed like just
• 25:36
  Speaker 17: a lot. But I saw Dirk's dad yesterday just asking for,
• 25:39
  Speaker 17: you know, prayers for Dirk as, you know, certain parts
• 25:42
  Speaker 17: of the case begin to rest their case. But one
• 25:45
  Speaker 17: of the things I was thinking about, I saw like
• 25:46
  Speaker 17: Dirk's assistant testified against him. And, you know, we have
• 25:50
  Speaker 17: all the other OTF members that were testifying against him
• 25:52
  Speaker 17: as well. But one of the things I was thinking
• 25:54
  Speaker 17: about was at this point, I mean, Charlamagne, you brought
• 25:56
  Speaker 17: this up, like how do they trust these people that
• 25:58
  Speaker 17: are on the stand, right? But if this is their
• 26:01
  Speaker 17: full case, right? And then they have these text messages
• 26:04
  Speaker 17: and these conversations that Brian Steele was like, blowing up
• 26:07
  Speaker 17: on the stand. What else is there to kind of
• 26:11
  Speaker 17: like hold dirt to at this point? Like, do you
• 26:14
  Speaker 17: guys think that he will walk away from this? Cause
• 26:15
  Speaker 17: in the beginning I didn't.
• 26:16
  Speaker 12: Well, that's what law enforcement does, right? That's what their
• 26:19
  Speaker 12: job is. Their job is to take down the quote
• 26:21
  Speaker 12: unquote big fish, right? And, If it means turning people
• 26:24
  Speaker 12: that committed the crime, we've seen it with the mob
• 26:26
  Speaker 12: numerous times.
• 26:26
  Speaker 3: Now we're seeing it with this. Yesterday was his assistant.
• 26:29
  Speaker 12: Assistant, you know, people have been saying that it's been
• 26:31
  Speaker 12: very damaging because he said that, you know, everything was
• 26:34
  Speaker 12: done because Dirk was the person.
• 26:36
  Speaker 3: That said, do it.
• 26:37
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 26:37
  Speaker 5: That's what all of them have been saying, though.
• 26:39
  Speaker 13: Right.
• 26:39
  Speaker 3: But I don't think the assistant was necessarily a gang member.
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: He wasn't a tough guy.
• 26:44
  Speaker 12: He was just a fan that became, I would assume,
• 26:47
  Speaker 12: an assistant.
• 26:48
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 26:48
  Speaker 17: But I guess my point is, is like, you know, if...
• 26:52
  Speaker 17: The witnesses and the people on the scene are all
• 26:54
  Speaker 17: that you have and nothing to corroborate with their.
• 26:56
  Speaker 3: No evidence, no actual hard evidence?
• 26:58
  Speaker 5: I mean, they're bringing evidence, but.
• 26:59
  Speaker 4: How do you know they don't have no evidence? I
• 27:00
  Speaker 4: don't know.
• 27:01
  Speaker 5: No, they do. Like, they've been bringing text messages in.
• 27:04
  Speaker 5: They've been, like, phone calls. They've been.
• 27:06
  Speaker 17: They have been bringing evidence, but Dirk's team has been
• 27:09
  Speaker 17: doing a good job, in my opinion, of kind of, like,
• 27:11
  Speaker 17: destroying all the evidence that they're bringing, like, pointing out inconsistencies.
• 27:16
  Speaker 5: There was, like, yesterday, I saw.
• 27:19
  Speaker 17: Drew Finland, like his closing statement was like, one of
• 27:22
  Speaker 17: the people that was on the stand, he was, they,
• 27:23
  Speaker 17: they go through this whole thing about how Dirk is
• 27:25
  Speaker 17: this horrible person and Dirk, uh, paid for the murder
• 27:28
  Speaker 17: and all these things. But then at the end of it,
• 27:30
  Speaker 17: he's like, but then you took four of your family
• 27:32
  Speaker 17: members to go see him in concert.
• 27:34
  Speaker 8: You know what I'm saying? So it's like, it's, It's
• 27:36
  Speaker 8: rocking back and forth. It's like a bit of a
• 27:38
  Speaker 8: reach with the evidence that they had.
• 27:40
  Speaker 5: I wouldn't say it's a reach.
• 27:41
  Speaker 17: I guess my question is, in the beginning of this,
• 27:45
  Speaker 17: I didn't think that Dirk would make it out of
• 27:46
  Speaker 17: this at all.
• 27:47
  Speaker 5: Now it's starting to change.
• 27:48
  Speaker 17: I know we're only a few weeks in, but I
• 27:51
  Speaker 17: guess I'm asking, what else do they bring?
• 27:53
  Speaker 5: How do they position it now?
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: The worst thing about these cases, especially when you're just
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: watching the way that we're watching... You see the prosecutor
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: one day and you're like, I agree with them. Then
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: you see the defense one day and you're like, I
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: agree with them. Thank God none of us are on
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: the jury. Because it's the jury. The jury has to
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: sit there and listen to all the evidence, listen to
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: all the testimony, and then decide.
• 28:14
  Speaker 4: We're not invested like that.
• 28:15
  Speaker 5: We're not.
• 28:16
  Speaker 4: We're just not.
• 28:17
  Speaker 12: Even the gentleman that got killed, what the case is
• 28:20
  Speaker 12: all about, you just think about his family as well.
• 28:22
  Speaker 12: They said he was an innocent bystander, had nothing to
• 28:24
  Speaker 12: do with the beef.
• 28:25
  Speaker 5: Rondo's cousin.
• 28:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, his cousin.
• 28:27
  Speaker 12: They had nothing to do with the beef, but This
• 28:28
  Speaker 12: case became more about less about finding out what happened
• 28:33
  Speaker 12: and getting in more about trying to take Dirk out
• 28:36
  Speaker 12: for murder for hire.
• 28:37
  Speaker 3: You know what I mean? So I know it must
• 28:38
  Speaker 3: hurt the family as well.
• 28:39
  Speaker 4: Both families.
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: Both families.
• 28:40
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 28:41
  Speaker 5: That's another thing, too. I don't know.
• 28:43
  Speaker 17: But yeah, that's the latest for the hour. And the
• 28:45
  Speaker 17: next latest, we're going to head on over to Gary, Indiana,
• 28:47
  Speaker 17: with some really good news, because Beyonce is helping out
• 28:50
  Speaker 17: the people there.
• 28:51
  Speaker 5: So we're going to bring it up.
• 28:53
  Speaker 12: All right, we'll get to that next. We have front
• 28:55
  Speaker 12: page news. And then don't forget, Skilla Baby will be
• 28:57
  Speaker 12: joining us.
• 28:57
  Speaker 3: So don't go anywhere. It's The Breakfast Club.
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: Good morning.
• 29:00
  Speaker 4: Morning, everybody.
• 29:01
  Speaker 12: It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are
• 29:04
  Speaker 12: The Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news.
• 29:08
  Speaker 3: What's up, Mimi?
• 29:10
  Speaker 13: Good morning, Envy, Jess, Charlamagne. How y'all doing this hour?
• 29:13
  Speaker 5: Peace, Mimi.
• 29:14
  Speaker 4: Hey, girl.
• 29:14
  Speaker 10: Hey.
• 29:15
  Speaker 13: Hey, girl. Okay, so let me start this hour with
• 29:17
  Speaker 13: a story out of the DMV, well, the DMV area.
• 29:21
  Speaker 13: That's where a Virginia man has been convicted of murder
• 29:24
  Speaker 13: after opening fire on a group of teenagers who were
• 29:27
  Speaker 13: running through his neighborhood after a ding-dong ditch prank. So
• 29:32
  Speaker 13: the jury found Tyler Butler guilty of second degree murder
• 29:36
  Speaker 13: in the shooting of 18 year old Michael Bosworth Jr.
• 29:40
  Speaker 13: And the shooting happened around three in the morning. Now,
• 29:42
  Speaker 13: this happened last May, but he was just sentenced earlier
• 29:46
  Speaker 13: this week. Bosworth and his two friends, they have been
• 29:49
  Speaker 13: kicking and banging on a neighbor's garage door and then
• 29:53
  Speaker 13: running away as part of the prank. Then they realized
• 29:55
  Speaker 13: the police had been called. The teenagers took off. They
• 29:59
  Speaker 13: cut through the backyards, eventually climbing over a fence onto
• 30:03
  Speaker 13: Butler's property. Now, doorbell camera video played for the jury.
• 30:08
  Speaker 13: It shows Butler coming outside and firing 10 rounds. You
• 30:13
  Speaker 13: can see the boys running away. They're kind of banging
• 30:16
  Speaker 13: on the garage. And then here comes Butler. He fires
• 30:19
  Speaker 13: 10 shots. His father says that he believes that he
• 30:24
  Speaker 13: said that his son believed that someone was trying to
• 30:26
  Speaker 13: break into their home and was protecting their family that night.
• 30:30
  Speaker 13: Let's listen to the father.
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: He was waking out of his sleep.
• 30:33
  Speaker 5: He didn't invite this behavior to our home.
• 30:35
  Speaker 12: So here he is sitting incarcerated for protecting his own
• 30:39
  Speaker 12: life and his mom's life.
• 30:41
  Speaker 5: And it's unjust.
• 30:42
  Speaker 11: I just think it's unjust.
• 30:44
  Speaker 12: I believe if he was other than a black man,
• 30:47
  Speaker 12: he probably wouldn't have been charged.
• 30:50
  Speaker 10: Yes.
• 30:52
  Speaker 5: It's very unfortunate, right?
• 30:54
  Speaker 8: Because you got a bunch of these pranks and they're
• 30:57
  Speaker 8: getting worse. And, you know, we see it every day
• 30:59
  Speaker 8: on the Internet. Like people are just they don't have
• 31:02
  Speaker 8: any respect.
• 31:02
  Speaker 5: You know what I mean? I'm not justifying that this
• 31:04
  Speaker 5: man killed this teenager. He killed all three of them
• 31:07
  Speaker 5: or just.
• 31:08
  Speaker 13: No, so one teenager was shot in the back and
• 31:10
  Speaker 13: he died. Another teenager was shot in the back, but
• 31:13
  Speaker 13: he survived and one got away.
• 31:15
  Speaker 5: I think that's the problem.
• 31:17
  Speaker 4: The problem was that they was running away. Yeah. What
• 31:20
  Speaker 4: do they call it in Jersey? The castle law? What
• 31:24
  Speaker 4: is it? You can't shoot somebody in the back.
• 31:25
  Speaker 12: When they're fleeing, you can't shoot them when they're fleeing.
• 31:28
  Speaker 12: Because they're no longer a threat. I don't know if
• 31:30
  Speaker 12: that's just the same in Virginia, though.
• 31:32
  Speaker 4: Yeah, probably not.
• 31:33
  Speaker 6: I don't know.
• 31:34
  Speaker 4: But I think that's probably what it is, the fact
• 31:35
  Speaker 4: that they were running away.
• 31:37
  Speaker 5: It's very, very sad.
• 31:38
  Speaker 8: And kids should just refrain from doing these pranks that
• 31:42
  Speaker 8: does not involve people. It involves people you don't know.
• 31:45
  Speaker 8: Three o'clock in the morning, why you don't got your
• 31:47
  Speaker 8: ass in the.
• 31:48
  Speaker 5: House, bro?
• 31:48
  Speaker 4: And don't play with nobody's home.
• 31:50
  Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying?
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: If you sleep, people's nerves be bad. Your anxiety already
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: through the roof. You hear all these stories about home
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: invasions and everything else. Don't play with somebody's house like that.
• 31:59
  Speaker 5: So sad.
• 32:00
  Speaker 4: Don't do that.
• 32:01
  Speaker 3: And the sad thing is I understand, right?
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 32:04
  Speaker 3: I totally understand. You're at your house.
• 32:06
  Speaker 12: Somebody comes to your house, whether they're fleeing or not,
• 32:09
  Speaker 12: the first thing you're thinking is somebody's trying to rob me.
• 32:11
  Speaker 12: What's going to make them? How do I know they're
• 32:12
  Speaker 12: not going to come back?
• 32:13
  Speaker 5: Come back, right.
• 32:14
  Speaker 12: So you're trying to eliminate the problem, right? But then
• 32:18
  Speaker 12: you also know that we all have been kids before.
• 32:20
  Speaker 12: We've all done stupid-ish before.
• 32:21
  Speaker 4: But you don't know that they're kids anymore. Y'all be young.
• 32:23
  Speaker 5: And you don't know that. Why do you keep saying y'all? Him, me.
• 32:26
  Speaker 4: You're talking in hindsight. You don't know that these are kids. Exactly.
• 32:30
  Speaker 5: And you don't know.
• 32:31
  Speaker 3: When you hear late night prank, I'm just thinking it'd
• 32:32
  Speaker 3: be some kiddish.
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: Because you're hearing it after the fact. Think about laying
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: in your bed at three in the morning and you
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: just hear bang, bang, bang.
• 32:37
  Speaker 5: You don't know.
• 32:38
  Speaker 4: And you see three boys.
• 32:40
  Speaker 3: I'm not saying that he knew it. I'm saying that these.
• 32:42
  Speaker 12: Kids are stupid because we've all done stupid-ish before, right? So,
• 32:46
  Speaker 12: you know kids do stupid pranks. Like, we've all done
• 32:48
  Speaker 12: stupid pranks before, right? Stupid things to neighbors. Throw eggs
• 32:51
  Speaker 12: at neighbors' house and, you know, stupid stuff like that
• 32:53
  Speaker 12: at Halloween.
• 32:54
  Speaker 3: Stupid-ish. Ring bells and run, but.
• 32:57
  Speaker 4: I ain't never did that type of stuff, man.
• 32:58
  Speaker 5: 3 o'clock in the morning with two of my homies.
• 33:01
  Speaker 8: It's like, yo, there's too much going on for you
• 33:04
  Speaker 8: to be doing that.
• 33:05
  Speaker 5: There was a lot happening.
• 33:06
  Speaker 13: There was a lot. So he argued that he was
• 33:08
  Speaker 13: protecting his home and he acted in self-defense. The jury
• 33:11
  Speaker 13: rejected that argument and they convicted him of second-degree murder,
• 33:14
  Speaker 13: attempted second-degree murder, malicious wounding, and several firearm charges. He
• 33:20
  Speaker 13: is scheduled to be sentenced on October 30th.
• 33:23
  Speaker 5: God damn, yo.
• 33:25
  Speaker 4: I need to get back to tipping cows.
• 33:27
  Speaker 5: Like something like that.
• 33:28
  Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying?
• 33:29
  Speaker 8: Yes, that's what I did when I was in high school.
• 33:31
  Speaker 8: I tipped cows and I stole drugs and all that.
• 33:34
  Speaker 8: You tipped a cow before, Jess?
• 33:35
  Speaker 5: Yes, I did.
• 33:37
  Speaker 13: Okay.
• 33:38
  Speaker 5: And really quickly, y'all.
• 33:39
  Speaker 4: Sorry, I was.
• 33:41
  Speaker 13: There's a story out of Southern California that I have
• 33:45
  Speaker 13: to tell you guys. So right here in L.A., there's
• 33:48
  Speaker 13: a serial butt sniffer.
• 33:50
  Speaker 4: We don't have no more time.
• 33:51
  Speaker 5: Maybe we got to wrap it up.
• 33:53
  Speaker 4: Not a serial butt sniffer. A serial butt sniffer, you guys.
• 33:56
  Speaker 4: You got to kill the baby coming.

• 34:14
  Speaker 13: this man is a registered sex offender who's been arrested
• 34:17
  Speaker 13: for similar behavior. One woman caught him. She reported him
• 34:20
  Speaker 13: and caught him and filmed him on TikTok. She says that,
• 34:25
  Speaker 13: you know, once she put it on TikTok, apparently a
• 34:27
  Speaker 13: lot of people came out saying that this has happened
• 34:28
  Speaker 13: to them. He claimed he was tying his shoes when
• 34:31
  Speaker 13: she caught him. And now he's He has been tracked
• 34:33
  Speaker 13: down again and arrested. And he is behind bars this morning.
• 34:37
  Speaker 13: But apparently this is a thing that has been happening
• 34:39
  Speaker 13: over a period of time out here.
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: I'm giving him donkey of the day a couple times.
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: So he got arrested again.
• 34:45
  Speaker 13: Yeah, he got arrested again. He needs to stay.
• 34:48
  Speaker 4: In jail so he can sniff all the butts he wants.
• 34:50
  Speaker 5: I was going to say he can have all the
• 34:51
  Speaker 5: butt he wanted, man.
• 34:52
  Speaker 3: He might not like male butt. You know what I mean?
• 34:54
  Speaker 3: That's the thing.
• 34:55
  Speaker 4: He don't got no choice now.
• 34:56
  Speaker 5: Oh, I know he would love your ass 10 years ago.
• 34:58
  Speaker 6: Stinky ass.
• 35:00
  Speaker 13: All right, y'all. Well, that is your front page news.
• 35:03
  Speaker 4: That's the butt he needed to sniff. Right.
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: He would have sniffed Envy's butt when Envy wasn't washing
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: his ass. He would have never sniffed another butt. He
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: would have stopped.
• 35:11
  Speaker 4: That's the problem.
• 35:12
  Speaker 3: It wasn't 10 years ago.
• 35:13
  Speaker 5: Turn him straight.
• 35:14
  Speaker 3: Stand him straight. Oh, my goodness.
• 35:16
  Speaker 4: Thank you, Mimi.

  Speaker 5: I'm good.
• 35:37
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 35:38
  Speaker 11: Are you looking at.
• 35:38
  Speaker 5: Me right now? Yeah, what's going on? Something else is
• 35:40
  Speaker 5: coming after.
• 35:42
  Speaker 4: There's nothing else coming. I'm asking the brother how he feel.
• 35:44
  Speaker 5: He's ready.
• 35:45
  Speaker 4: He don't go. I don't go? No, I'm good.
• 35:48
  Speaker 11: Chilling?
• 35:48
  Speaker 4: Okay. I'm chilling. I saw some of your conversation with
• 35:51
  Speaker 4: Pretty V.
• 35:52
  Speaker 5: I love it.
• 35:53
  Speaker 4: And I see that you're on, I would say, a.
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: Spiritual journey, a journey of doing the work on yourself,
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: which I respect and appreciate.
• 35:59
  Speaker 4: Appreciate you. What got you on that pathway?
• 36:02
  Speaker 11: I just feel like I'm supposed to be obedient right now,
• 36:04
  Speaker 11: so I can't really answer why. I don't ask God why.
• 36:08
  Speaker 11: I just feel like I should be obedient right now.
• 36:11
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 36:11
  Speaker 5: When did you realize that he was talking to you? Like,
• 36:14
  Speaker 5: what was that moment?
• 36:16
  Speaker 11: I don't think I have a moment. I think I
• 36:18
  Speaker 11: have multiple moments. God will be sending me signs and
• 36:20
  Speaker 11: I won't pay attention to them until after something wrong
• 36:23
  Speaker 11: had happened or my downfall or something like that.
• 36:26
  Speaker 4: And I feel like.
• 36:28
  Speaker 11: I just wasn't being obedient in the moment. And I
• 36:30
  Speaker 11: feel like now it's like, don't ask God why, just
• 36:33
  Speaker 11: do it.
• 36:34
  Speaker 4: The album is called The Price of Fame, right?
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: So what's something fame cost you that you didn't even
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: know you were going to have to pay for?
• 36:41
  Speaker 11: Fame cost me my childhood. Just being young, wanting to
• 36:45
  Speaker 11: do fun stuff. My neighborhood, like, my comfortability. I had
• 36:50
  Speaker 11: to move, do stuff like that. Like, it be a
• 36:53
  Speaker 11: little stuff that people don't really notice that. It's just really,
• 36:56
  Speaker 11: fame was my word for success. I wanted my album
• 37:00
  Speaker 11: to be, like, recognizable to, like, the average person.
• 37:03
  Speaker 4: I saw you said that.
• 37:04
  Speaker 5: Yeah, you said that.
• 37:05
  Speaker 11: I think, like, success, just chasing success just cost me
• 37:08
  Speaker 11: a lot. My friendships with people... Like I said, comfortability,
• 37:12
  Speaker 11: like everything for real, all the little stuff. Like I
• 37:15
  Speaker 11: don't even, I'm family oriented, but I don't have kids
• 37:19
  Speaker 11: or anything because I want to dedicate my life to
• 37:21
  Speaker 11: my kids when I have them. But like chasing success,
• 37:24
  Speaker 11: that could just.
• 37:25
  Speaker 4: Be a lot.
• 37:26
  Speaker 5: You've talked about you want this album to be like
• 37:28
  Speaker 5: healing for people.
• 37:29
  Speaker 17: Do you feel like you were healed from some of
• 37:30
  Speaker 17: the things that you were maybe trying to escape or
• 37:33
  Speaker 17: like trying to figure out at this point and now
• 37:34
  Speaker 17: you want to pass it on?
• 37:35
  Speaker 5: Or are you still figuring a lot of that out
• 37:36
  Speaker 5: for yourself?
• 37:37
  Speaker 11: I think I'm still healing. I think I'm healed from
• 37:39
  Speaker 11: a lot of stuff, but I think I'm still healing.
• 37:41
  Speaker 11: But I think you never really heal from certain things.
• 37:45
  Speaker 11: And I had to mature enough to really realize that.
• 37:48
  Speaker 11: I ain't going to never heal from that. You know
• 37:50
  Speaker 11: what I'm saying?
• 37:51
  Speaker 4: But I feel like the album helped me.
• 37:53
  Speaker 11: I think it helped me like little stuff. I'm from
• 37:56
  Speaker 11: the ghetto, so I handle stuff a certain way. And
• 37:59
  Speaker 11: I feel like just doing this album and getting close
• 38:01
  Speaker 11: with God, it helped me get stronger as a person.
• 38:04
  Speaker 11: Because it's so easy for me to go do something.
• 38:07
  Speaker 11: him like some bull like you know but it was
• 38:10
  Speaker 11: hard for me to walk away from certain things and
• 38:12
  Speaker 11: certain lifestyles and everything because it's fun too.
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: I saw you say too that you were trying to
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: present yourself as bigger than life but now you realize
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: relatability is more powerful so what were you hiding behind
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: that larger than life version of.
• 38:26
  Speaker 11: Skilla I think just where I come from like Detroit
• 38:29
  Speaker 11: is a real flashy city and you get caught up
• 38:32
  Speaker 11: in big chains big houses big cars hood stuff like
• 38:37
  Speaker 11: Just traveling and doing the work and studying people's albums
• 38:41
  Speaker 11: and great people. I started figuring out that the hood
• 38:45
  Speaker 11: is a small demographic of people. There's more people that's
• 38:48
  Speaker 11: not doing good than doing good. That's why they call
• 38:51
  Speaker 11: them the one percenters or whatever they call them. It's
• 38:53
  Speaker 11: okay to be vulnerable. I used to think like, yeah,
• 38:56
  Speaker 11: I got to mask everything I'm going through and put
• 39:00
  Speaker 11: it into some diamonds. You know what I'm saying?
• 39:02
  Speaker 9: Mm-hmm.
• 39:03
  Speaker 11: So I bought three Richard Millies, do all that type
• 39:05
  Speaker 11: of stuff. And it's like, it's not really high on
• 39:07
  Speaker 11: what I'm going through because money can't really, it can
• 39:10
  Speaker 11: mask it, but it can't.
• 39:11
  Speaker 4: Really make it go away.
• 39:13
  Speaker 11: Like I made a lot of money and it never
• 39:16
  Speaker 11: made what I really felt going away, go away.
• 39:18
  Speaker 4: Like, you know what I'm saying?
• 39:20
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: It's retail therapy. It's the same reason people escape by
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: drinking alcohol or doing drugs.
• 39:25
  Speaker 4: You're just doing retail therapy.
• 39:27
  Speaker 11: That's all.
• 39:28
  Speaker 8: Now, you said you're a soldier, right? But people don't
• 39:31
  Speaker 8: actually see what's underneath all of that. Was there a
• 39:35
  Speaker 8: person that you ever showed that side of you?
• 39:37
  Speaker 4: Like, far as what?
• 39:39
  Speaker 5: Not the soldier. What's underneath the soldier? No, I don't
• 39:41
  Speaker 5: really be doing that.
• 39:43
  Speaker 4: Even for a woman?
• 39:44
  Speaker 11: Nope.
• 39:45
  Speaker 5: Not the way your anthems for the ladies be going. Right.
• 39:48
  Speaker 11: That's how I really feel, though. But I was raised
• 39:51
  Speaker 11: to be a protector and a provider. And my dad
• 39:53
  Speaker 11: was born in 1946. So he was from Mississippi. He
• 39:57
  Speaker 11: went to jail. So I always had a structured life.
• 40:00
  Speaker 11: I had to get up. Even if it's the weekend,
• 40:03
  Speaker 11: I can't sleep past 8 a.m. I got to make
• 40:05
  Speaker 11: my bed. So everything's structured for me. So I don't
• 40:08
  Speaker 11: really know how to be vulnerable with people. Like, I
• 40:11
  Speaker 11: talk to my manager, Rocky, sometimes. And we be talking
• 40:14
  Speaker 11: about what we go through and stuff. But it don't
• 40:16
  Speaker 11: be like break down and cry like, We be trying
• 40:18
  Speaker 11: to see how we gonna push through it. So I
• 40:21
  Speaker 11: don't really just be like, cry me a river. I
• 40:23
  Speaker 11: can't do that.
• 40:24
  Speaker 4: I don't know how.
• 40:25
  Speaker 5: But what about Nas EP'd this album, right?
• 40:27
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 40:28
  Speaker 5: So you got Nas EP in the album. I know
• 40:29
  Speaker 5: you close to 50.
• 40:30
  Speaker 17: Like, they've been through some real stuff and they're also, now,
• 40:33
  Speaker 17: I mean, they got success levels that I'm sure you see.
• 40:36
  Speaker 5: You don't, not even with them?
• 40:37
  Speaker 11: We talk about it, but you know what? When we
• 40:39
  Speaker 11: talk about trauma, we laugh. Like, we don't be trying
• 40:42
  Speaker 11: to dwell on it. We be like, yeah, we went
• 40:45
  Speaker 11: through that, but look where we're going. We don't be
• 40:47
  Speaker 11: on some Yeah, we got to dwell on this. It
• 40:50
  Speaker 11: might feel like a therapy session, but it's like everything
• 40:53
  Speaker 11: we say is positive. Even when I go through negative stuff,
• 40:57
  Speaker 11: I don't ask God why. I feel like my God
• 41:00
  Speaker 11: don't make mistakes. So I feel like, all right, I'm
• 41:03
  Speaker 11: going to push through it. Even when I got shot,
• 41:05
  Speaker 11: I was like, all right, I understand where I come from.
• 41:08
  Speaker 11: I understand my circumstances. I understand where I'm going. And
• 41:12
  Speaker 11: that was yesterday.
• 41:13
  Speaker 4: You got shot last summer, right?
• 41:15
  Speaker 7: Mm-hmm.
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: I think I read that you got shot three times
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: and they shot at the car like 20 something.
• 41:20
  Speaker 11: Yeah, something like that.
• 41:21
  Speaker 4: Damn.
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: When something like that happens, everybody will be like, are
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: you good? But they mean physically. But how did that
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: impact you mentally? Mentally, it just put me in a
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: spot where I was dark. I was dark for a minute.
• 41:34
  Speaker 11: And that's when I really, my faith started getting, I
• 41:36
  Speaker 11: tested my faith the most.
• 41:38
  Speaker 4: Because I was.
• 41:38
  Speaker 11: Dark and I really was going to get myself in trouble.
• 41:41
  Speaker 11: You know, because I just felt evil. But that's when
• 41:44
  Speaker 11: my faith was tested the most. And I feel like,
• 41:46
  Speaker 11: am I going to be obedient to myself or be
• 41:49
  Speaker 11: obedient to God? And I feel like that was when
• 41:51
  Speaker 11: my faith was tested. Like, one of the times my
• 41:54
  Speaker 11: faith was tested the most. Because I felt humiliated. I
• 41:58
  Speaker 11: felt broken. I felt let down. I felt like I
• 42:02
  Speaker 11: let myself down, all that type of stuff. Why do
• 42:05
  Speaker 11: you feel like you let yourself down? And why do
• 42:06
  Speaker 11: you feel humiliated? Because I know better.
• 42:09
  Speaker 4: Oh, you mean the way you was moving?
• 42:10
  Speaker 11: Yeah, like I know better. But I felt like in
• 42:13
  Speaker 11: the moments, like I'm bigger than the program, like, you know?
• 42:17
  Speaker 11: And I let myself down because I know it could happen.
• 42:20
  Speaker 11: I know what I be into. I know, like I said,
• 42:23
  Speaker 11: my surroundings, where I come from, and I know better.
• 42:27
  Speaker 11: That's how I let myself down because it's like, I
• 42:29
  Speaker 11: almost let my family down. Like, I could have died.
• 42:32
  Speaker 11: You know what I'm saying? I almost let my mama down. Like,
• 42:36
  Speaker 11: if something happened to me, their lifestyle changes drastically. You
• 42:39
  Speaker 11: know what I'm saying? We everything to each other. Even
• 42:43
  Speaker 11: if their lifestyle don't change, I'm almost... My mama take
• 42:47
  Speaker 11: pride in she want to leave before I leave.
• 42:50
  Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying?
• 42:50
  Speaker 2: And if I.
• 42:51
  Speaker 11: like F that up then that's really me letting her
• 42:54
  Speaker 11: down and that's that's me letting God down that's me
• 42:57
  Speaker 11: letting a lot of people down because I feel that
• 43:00
  Speaker 11: life but some stuff I could have avoided you know what.
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: Was it just being being at the wrong place wrong
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: time like you didn't have to be there gotcha gotcha.
• 43:07
  Speaker 11: You know what I'm saying like wrong place wrong time
• 43:10
  Speaker 11: wrong neighborhoods you know what I'm saying like you just
• 43:13
  Speaker 11: certain stuff you don't do when you do what I
• 43:15
  Speaker 11: do like and I had to understand that I always
• 43:17
  Speaker 11: be trying to act like I'm a normal person and
• 43:19
  Speaker 11: stuff but My career is not normal.
• 43:23
  Speaker 5: Unlearning.
• 43:24
  Speaker 13: Yeah.
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: With all that good sense you got, I read that
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: you went back to the streets after being shot.
• 43:28
  Speaker 11: You read what? Like, I went back to the streets

  Speaker 5: But nothing could keep him down.
• 44:19
  Speaker 4: Why was that important for you to do?
• 44:21
  Speaker 11: Because I don't want people to feel sorry for me.
• 44:23
  Speaker 11: I don't be on that. Also, like, I hate to
• 44:27
  Speaker 11: keep using this word. I don't like people feeling like
• 44:30
  Speaker 11: I'm weak in this situation. I always want to show.
• 44:33
  Speaker 11: And I got people... that's like little kids look up
• 44:36
  Speaker 11: to me all type of stuff so if i'm just
• 44:38
  Speaker 11: sitting in the hospital letting everybody think i'm i'm dead
• 44:42
  Speaker 11: or stuff like that that's selfish that's just me trying
• 44:45
  Speaker 11: to have people feel bad and get pity for what
• 44:48
  Speaker 11: like when i could show strength i could show perseverance
• 44:51
  Speaker 11: i could show all type of stuff.
• 44:52
  Speaker 5: It's just that people care yeah for sure love you
• 44:55
  Speaker 5: you was in a sling like yeah we were sad
• 44:59
  Speaker 5: up here you look.
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: Stronger on pretty v show letting everybody know that you
• 45:03
  Speaker 1: dealing with mental health issues right now letting everybody know
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: you not feeling your best right now that when I
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: see that I see a young man with.
• 45:11
  Speaker 11: Scrimp when I see that have you ever been shot
• 45:13
  Speaker 11: no so if you ever God forbid but if you
• 45:17
  Speaker 11: ever get shot you gonna understand the emotions that come
• 45:20
  Speaker 11: through your body like it's not just one emotion you
• 45:23
  Speaker 11: be sad you be mad you be like happy you
• 45:26
  Speaker 11: made it through it you be it's everything rushing at
• 45:29
  Speaker 11: you at once so it If you ever notice somebody
• 45:32
  Speaker 11: that been shot, either turn them up or put them up. Like,
• 45:35
  Speaker 11: they either going to go in the house and hide
• 45:37
  Speaker 11: or they going to do something that's very drastic and
• 45:41
  Speaker 11: be like, oh, yeah, I'm better than that. You know
• 45:43
  Speaker 11: what I'm saying? It be different ways. It might be positive.
• 45:45
  Speaker 11: It might be negative. But either turn you down or
• 45:48
  Speaker 11: turn you up every time. If you ask anybody that
• 45:51
  Speaker 11: ever been shot.
• 45:51
  Speaker 5: They'll tell you that.
• 45:52
  Speaker 4: What do you think it did for you?
• 45:53
  Speaker 11: I feel like it turned me up in a negative
• 45:56
  Speaker 11: way than a positive way. I had to. It tested
• 45:58
  Speaker 11: my strength and, like, Not, like, physically, like, spiritually, emotionally.
• 46:05
  Speaker 11: My emotions was higher than ever. Like, I've been shot
• 46:07
  Speaker 11: on two different occasions. First time, it made me more
• 46:10
  Speaker 11: of a gangster. But I was 23 years old. Second time,
• 46:14
  Speaker 11: it just made me reflect on life.
• 46:16
  Speaker 2: Like, why?
• 46:16
  Speaker 11: What's my purpose? Am I supposed to be a leader?
• 46:20
  Speaker 11: Am I supposed to be here?
• 46:21
  Speaker 4: Like, you know what I'm saying?
• 46:22
  Speaker 11: It just made me reflect on different things that I
• 46:25
  Speaker 11: was going through. Because getting shot wasn't a problem. It
• 46:28
  Speaker 11: was getting shot at a time where I felt like
• 46:31
  Speaker 11: I wasn't in the right space in my career. I
• 46:35
  Speaker 11: was going through it with females. I was going through
• 46:37
  Speaker 11: it with family. All these emotions was going through me
• 46:40
  Speaker 11: at once. And it wasn't even about getting shot. It
• 46:42
  Speaker 11: was like, man, this is the worst time I could
• 46:44
  Speaker 11: ever get shot. I had just took a loss.
• 46:46
  Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying?
• 46:47
  Speaker 11: So it was like, I lost money, family, friends, and
• 46:51
  Speaker 11: got shot. Now I'm feeling humiliated because now I feel
• 46:54
  Speaker 11: like everybody that went against me, they happy I got
• 46:57
  Speaker 11: shot for real. Like everybody could say they wasn't, but
• 47:00
  Speaker 11: it's like Oh, yeah, that's where you get all them
• 47:02
  Speaker 11: emotions going through it. At one time, and then you
• 47:05
  Speaker 11: be like, I want to do something to somebody. But
• 47:07
  Speaker 11: then it be like, am I going to obey God?
• 47:09
  Speaker 11: Do you remember that moment you heard God speak to you?
• 47:11
  Speaker 11: When he tapped you on that shoulder? Do you remember
• 47:13
  Speaker 11: exactly what that felt like?
• 47:14
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 47:15
  Speaker 11: Me and him, we used to. This is how I
• 47:17
  Speaker 11: really made it through it. Like, I was in a
• 47:18
  Speaker 11: dark moment. I ain't going to say everything I was
• 47:21
  Speaker 11: doing in this dark moment. But one day, like, because
• 47:23
  Speaker 11: he going to support whatever I want to do for real.
• 47:26
  Speaker 11: He really going to support me. Whatever I want to do,
• 47:28
  Speaker 11: he going to. Even if he think it's wrong, he
• 47:30
  Speaker 11: going to. provide me with support but we was talking
• 47:33
  Speaker 11: on the phone and he was like i just had
• 47:35
  Speaker 11: told him like i'm gonna just go to the gym
• 47:37
  Speaker 11: then when i went to the gym i just was
• 47:39
  Speaker 11: locked in like i go three times a day i'm
• 47:41
  Speaker 11: doing 400 push-ups 200 pull-ups like everything changed my diet
• 47:46
  Speaker 11: last november to last like the middle of january I
• 47:50
  Speaker 11: had no bread, no sugar, no sex, and.
• 47:54
  Speaker 4: Drunk all water.
• 47:55
  Speaker 11: And I went to the gym like two or three
• 47:56
  Speaker 11: times a day, and it made me feel better than ever.
• 47:59
  Speaker 5: It was clear.
• 48:01
  Speaker 11: And I was praying in the sauna. Every day I'd
• 48:03
  Speaker 11: turn on a gospel song and pray in the sauna.
• 48:05
  Speaker 11: That's what really helped me.
• 48:07
  Speaker 4: It was clear. And God gave you direct order.
• 48:11
  Speaker 11: I stopped hurting.
• 48:12
  Speaker 4: Not physically.
• 48:13
  Speaker 11: Mentally, I just stopped hurting.
• 48:15
  Speaker 4: I let all the hurt go.
• 48:17
  Speaker 11: And I remember the moment when I stopped hurting, I
• 48:21
  Speaker 11: started praying for my enemies.
• 48:24
  Speaker 4: That's powerful, man.
• 48:25
  Speaker 1: Because, you know, I always say hurt people hurt people.
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: So when you stopped hurting, you didn't even want to
• 48:29
  Speaker 1: hurt nobody.
• 48:30
  Speaker 5: It's crazy, though, right?
• 48:31
  Speaker 17: Because you have all that happening, the dark cloud and
• 48:34
  Speaker 17: just trying to get through where you're from. But at
• 48:37
  Speaker 17: the same time, you do so much in your community
• 48:39
  Speaker 17: and have been literally ever since I ever knew who
• 48:41
  Speaker 17: you were. Is there like a fight sometimes, especially because of,
• 48:45
  Speaker 17: you know, getting shot where you're from? where you're like,
• 48:48
  Speaker 17: I want to keep doing all this, but at the
• 48:49
  Speaker 17: same time, it's like, that means going back, and you're
• 48:52
  Speaker 17: hypersensitive to, like, the areas you got to go into, and, like,
• 48:55
  Speaker 17: what's that meant to battle, or is there even one
• 48:57
  Speaker 17: at this point?
• 48:57
  Speaker 3: No, I never stopped.
• 48:58
  Speaker 11: Even when I got shot, I still went back and
• 49:00
  Speaker 11: did some stuff. I went back a few weeks later
• 49:03
  Speaker 11: and helped the mayor. I was part of her campaign.
• 49:07
  Speaker 5: The Occupy Summer?
• 49:08
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 49:09
  Speaker 11: Like, I do Occupy the Summers, but I also, I
• 49:11
  Speaker 11: get outside and I do stuff on my own. I
• 49:15
  Speaker 11: provided houses for Less fortunate families gave them some of
• 49:19
  Speaker 11: my houses. i didn't bless girls go to college i
• 49:23
  Speaker 11: do a lot of stuff i don't like it being
• 49:24
  Speaker 11: recorded i don't do it for that they want me
• 49:26
  Speaker 11: to make a non-profit i still haven't because i don't
• 49:29
  Speaker 11: do it for that either but i ain't gonna never
• 49:31
  Speaker 11: stop doing stuff for my community because they blessed me
• 49:35
  Speaker 11: yeah they poured into me growing up So I feel
• 49:38
  Speaker 11: like if I took all this, I took the swag,
• 49:41
  Speaker 11: I took the money, I took all that. I still
• 49:45
  Speaker 11: got to pour back into my community, regardless of what happened.
• 49:47
  Speaker 11: Because I told you, I'm not going to ask God why.
• 49:50
  Speaker 11: I'm just going to do it. And I don't do
• 49:51
  Speaker 11: it to be blessed back or anything. I'm going to
• 49:54
  Speaker 11: go back to something Lawrence said.
• 49:55
  Speaker 1: How difficult is it for a young black man to
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: understand leaving the neighborhood doesn't mean abandoning it, abandoning the neighborhood?
• 50:01
  Speaker 11: It's very difficult. It's very difficult because everybody try to
• 50:05
  Speaker 11: pull you into that. They try to make it seem
• 50:07
  Speaker 11: like if you're not there, you don't care. Also, they
• 50:09
  Speaker 11: don't understand it's a certain level of protection you don't get.
• 50:13
  Speaker 11: If I come to a neighborhood and something, like some
• 50:15
  Speaker 11: people don't do all illegal stuff in my neighborhood. So
• 50:19
  Speaker 11: if I come through there, I'm making it hot. I'm
• 50:21
  Speaker 11: making everything. I'm shedding light on the neighborhood, but I'm
• 50:25
  Speaker 11: also protecting. Providing a light to stuff that's not supposed
• 50:28
  Speaker 11: to be going on, too, that's going to happen in
• 50:30
  Speaker 11: the neighborhood, whether I help it or not, you know?
• 50:32
  Speaker 11: Because it's just what comes with the neighborhood. So it's
• 50:35
  Speaker 11: also fun, too. Like, being in the neighborhood, I had
• 50:38
  Speaker 11: to really... That's why I like Ron Manot, because it's
• 50:41
  Speaker 11: not fun.
• 50:42
  Speaker 4: It's not fun?
• 50:42
  Speaker 11: It's not fun.
• 50:43
  Speaker 5: Not the type of fun that he's used to.
• 50:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you said that about four times in an interview,
• 50:46
  Speaker 1: how fun it is. Like, what's so fun about it?
• 50:48
  Speaker 4: About the neighborhood?
• 50:49
  Speaker 11: I think it's the sense of community that you like.
• 50:52
  Speaker 11: I like the sense of community, but also, like, when you...
• 50:55
  Speaker 11: born into some gangsta stuff that's fun to you it's
• 50:57
  Speaker 11: the adrenaline rush it's just like going on a roller
• 50:59
  Speaker 11: coaster i don't ride roller coasters and i tell people
• 51:02
  Speaker 11: like i ain't i've been shot enough times i don't
• 51:04
  Speaker 11: need to jump out of plane or do nothing like
• 51:06
  Speaker 11: you know what i'm saying i've been shot at doing
• 51:08
  Speaker 11: like it's fun it's fun we make it through it
• 51:10
  Speaker 11: like it's not fun getting shot but if you ever
• 51:13
  Speaker 11: been on a a shootout or something like that it's
• 51:16
  Speaker 11: the same adrenaline rush you get from jumping out of
• 51:18
  Speaker 11: plane or going on a roller coaster when the When
• 51:21
  Speaker 11: it dropped.
• 51:21
  Speaker 5: It's the thrill.
• 51:22
  Speaker 11: It's the thrill of it.
• 51:23
  Speaker 1: It's excitement, yeah.
• 51:24
  Speaker 11: You ever notice all the little kids, when they don't
• 51:27
  Speaker 11: get shot, they on the internet talk about how they
• 51:29
  Speaker 11: made it and stuff like that, and they laughing because
• 51:31
  Speaker 11: it's the adrenaline rush of all that.
• 51:34
  Speaker 4: And it's not fun.
• 51:35
  Speaker 11: Don't get me wrong, but when you're in it and
• 51:37
  Speaker 11: you can't make it out of it, it's the fun
• 51:39
  Speaker 11: that you having, you know?
• 51:41
  Speaker 17: I'm going to go back to the freestyle that you
• 51:42
  Speaker 17: released after everything happened. You thanked everybody for the love
• 51:45
  Speaker 17: and support, but at the same time, it was kind
• 51:46
  Speaker 17: of like giving where you were trying to decide how
• 51:49
  Speaker 17: you should react because of what you... come from and
• 51:51
  Speaker 17: what you used to and the whole retaliation or whatever
• 51:53
  Speaker 17: and where you know you should be like talking to
• 51:56
  Speaker 17: god and just leaving it alone so like it's like
• 51:59
  Speaker 17: you battle with that like to this day still what
• 52:03
  Speaker 17: clicked for you and when where you were like like
• 52:05
  Speaker 17: that's not real life i can't really live my life
• 52:07
  Speaker 17: like that i.
• 52:08
  Speaker 11: Was talking to pastor warren campbell that's erica campbell's.
• 52:12
  Speaker 5: Husband okay she's on the album too yeah.
• 52:14
  Speaker 11: Warren campbell produced on the album too he did a
• 52:17
  Speaker 11: lot of tupac he did mario records he did a
• 52:20
  Speaker 11: lot of mary mary records he does a lot of
• 52:21
  Speaker 11: stuff but he was telling me i'm not fighting because
• 52:24
  Speaker 11: i really kept it real with him i was like
• 52:26
  Speaker 11: i want to do this i feel like this and
• 52:29
  Speaker 11: he was like you might not be fighting right and
• 52:31
  Speaker 11: wrong you might be fighting right and wise so everything
• 52:34
  Speaker 11: you want to do you might be right for doing
• 52:36
  Speaker 11: it but is it the wise decision when he said
• 52:39
  Speaker 11: that it clicked And I'm.
• 52:40
  Speaker 4: Like, dang, he right.
• 52:42
  Speaker 11: I might feel evil in this moment, but is it
• 52:45
  Speaker 11: conducive to my situation? Is it conducive to Skilla baby?
• 52:48
  Speaker 11: Is it conducive to my mama? Is it conducive to
• 52:51
  Speaker 11: my sister? Am I being selfish to my management? You
• 52:54
  Speaker 11: know what I'm saying? People, my employees, like if I
• 52:57
  Speaker 11: go away, if I do this, if I set myself up,
• 53:00
  Speaker 11: even if I don't make it out a situation, a
• 53:02
  Speaker 11: lot of people lost jobs, might lose houses, might lose,
• 53:06
  Speaker 11: you know what I'm saying? So it was like, I
• 53:08
  Speaker 11: can't be selfish in those moments. Also, I'm in my
• 53:11
  Speaker 11: obedience phase of my life, so it's like, Pastor told
• 53:14
  Speaker 11: me this, and I felt like he wasn't judging me
• 53:16
  Speaker 11: when he said it. He really told me I could
• 53:18
  Speaker 11: be right, but I could, I could, is it wise?
• 53:21
  Speaker 11: So he didn't really tell me, don't do that. He
• 53:24
  Speaker 11: was like, just think about it. You know what I'm saying?
• 53:27
  Speaker 11: So I took a step back, and I.
• 53:28
  Speaker 4: Had to reevaluate everything. After surviving everything, you survived, right?
• 53:32
  Speaker 4: You know, including gun violence, has survived.
• 53:35
  Speaker 1: Your philanthropy started to feel different because you give away houses.
• 53:38
  Speaker 1: I see you support students. You put $ 50, 000 for the
• 53:43
  Speaker 1: gun back. Does philanthropy feel different after all that? Yeah,
• 53:47
  Speaker 1: I just did a mental health podcast. I mean, not
• 53:49
  Speaker 1: a podcast, but a panel in my city. I partnered
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: with the mayor, the deputy mayor, the chief of police,
• 53:57
  Speaker 1: some other activists and programs that help with mental health.
• 54:02
  Speaker 1: So I feel like With that, I want to see,
• 54:06
  Speaker 1: because I'll still be battling, like, I'll be feeling down
• 54:09
  Speaker 1: and stuff, but I want to see how people cope
• 54:13
  Speaker 1: in different ways to see am I doing it wrong
• 54:15
  Speaker 1: or other ways I can deal with my stuff. Also,
• 54:18
  Speaker 1: I wanted to bridge a gap between community and police.
• 54:24
  Speaker 5: Like, over-policing.
• 54:25
  Speaker 11: I think, like, a lot of kids and a lot
• 54:28
  Speaker 11: of people in the community, the disconnection with police officers
• 54:34
  Speaker 11: and city officials is we really don't know them. So
• 54:37
  Speaker 11: you be scared. You fear the unknown. So I feel
• 54:40
  Speaker 11: like if they see me shaking their hand, then it'll
• 54:45
  Speaker 11: look cool because somebody they cool with. Because I don't
• 54:48
  Speaker 11: got to snitch on nobody. I'm not telling on nobody.
• 54:50
  Speaker 11: And I can do gun buybacks and still help y'all,
• 54:53
  Speaker 11: but I'm not helping y'all do y'all job. But also,
• 54:57
  Speaker 11: I feel like a lot of police are there to help.
• 55:01
  Speaker 11: And I feel like The disconnection between them and us
• 55:04
  Speaker 11: is we don't know each other. So if we, if
• 55:07
  Speaker 11: you see, if I see an officer in my neighborhood
• 55:11
  Speaker 11: as a kid and these systematic beliefs and these learned behaviors,
• 55:17
  Speaker 11: I see my uncle or my pops or whatever telling
• 55:20
  Speaker 11: the police get the f * * * on, then
• 55:23
  Speaker 11: I'm going to feel like that. But also, if I know,
• 55:27
  Speaker 11: if I know the police.
• 55:30
  Speaker 11: And I feel like it's my cousin or my friend,
• 55:33
  Speaker 11: then he's trying to provide ways to help me out
• 55:35
  Speaker 11: in these situations instead of judging me. Even with the police,
• 55:39
  Speaker 11: knowing the neighborhood, it's like the police that really be
• 55:42
  Speaker 11: in the neighborhood that's chilling with everybody and they be cool. Like,
• 55:46
  Speaker 11: they'll help you through it. It's be the people that
• 55:49
  Speaker 11: we don't know that we automatically, we got this stigma
• 55:52
  Speaker 11: about them, this stigma on both sides, you know? So
• 55:55
  Speaker 11: I feel like if we, like, bridge that gap, man,
• 55:58
  Speaker 11: It'll be like less over policing and then it's be
• 56:01
  Speaker 11: less fear in the neighborhoods too. But also we got to,
• 56:04
  Speaker 11: I think in our neighborhoods, we're a little delusional when
• 56:08
  Speaker 11: it comes to that, because a lot of times we
• 56:11
  Speaker 11: be doing stuff that's wrong. Even if you don't feel
• 56:17
  Speaker 11: like it's morally wrong, it's against the law. I think
• 56:19
  Speaker 11: a lot of kids, like one thing my pops taught
• 56:22
  Speaker 11: me growing up, you got to know your laws. A
• 56:25
  Speaker 11: lot of people don't know the law. Or they ignore
• 56:27
  Speaker 11: the law. And really their job is to defend the law.
• 56:31
  Speaker 11: You know what I'm saying? So if you getting arrested
• 56:33
  Speaker 11: and you broke the law, bro, you can't really... You
• 56:37
  Speaker 11: can be mad at yourself. You can't really be mad
• 56:39
  Speaker 11: at the police.
• 56:40
  Speaker 4: You're doing your job.
• 56:41
  Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying?
• 56:42
  Speaker 11: A lot of times we be trying to make that
• 56:44
  Speaker 11: excuse like, yeah, they over-policing, but dog just broke the law.
• 56:47
  Speaker 11: You know what I'm saying? And I'm from the streets,
• 56:49
  Speaker 11: so I haven't been a law-abiding citizen my whole life.
• 56:54
  Speaker 11: You know what I'm saying?
• 56:54
  Speaker 4: So it's like.
• 56:56
  Speaker 11: I understand it, but we got to stop like putting this,
• 57:00
  Speaker 11: this stigma out there that every time somebody get arrested,
• 57:04
  Speaker 11: they didn't break the law. You got caught. That's not
• 57:07
  Speaker 11: our fault. It's not their fault. You got caught. You
• 57:09
  Speaker 11: know what I'm saying?
• 57:10
  Speaker 3: Now over policing, I.
• 57:11
  Speaker 11: Don't support that at all. You know what I'm saying?
• 57:15
  Speaker 11: I don't, I don't, I'm never helping the police do
• 57:17
  Speaker 11: their job at all. I don't get paid to do that,
• 57:21
  Speaker 11: but we do have police for a reason. You know
• 57:23
  Speaker 11: what I'm saying? And it's like, We can't. Every time
• 57:26
  Speaker 11: somebody get, they're a felon and they get caught with
• 57:29
  Speaker 11: a gun, like, oh my God, they bothering me. No,
• 57:31
  Speaker 11: you got a gun, gang.
• 57:32
  Speaker 8: Like that's, oh my God, especially with somebody, mother, they
• 57:36
  Speaker 8: see their dead kid getting.
• 57:38
  Speaker 5: Harassed by, you know, like just getting beat up by
• 57:39
  Speaker 5: the police. Oh my God, stop, he ain't do nothing. No,
• 57:42
  Speaker 5: this is little Michael Myers, baby. Like, you know what
• 57:44
  Speaker 5: I mean? He done killed a hell of people.
• 57:46
  Speaker 4: That is true.
• 57:47
  Speaker 1: But also, if they invested in our communities the way
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: they invested in police, things would also change as well.
• 57:53
  Speaker 1: There wouldn't be the need for over-policing because, you know,
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: these kids would have the mental health resources that they
• 57:59
  Speaker 1: need and these kids would have after-school programs. Like, you
• 58:01
  Speaker 1: got to give these kids something to do. They say
• 58:04
  Speaker 1: our idle mind is the devil's playground. That's why they
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: turn to a life of crime often because they don't
• 58:08
  Speaker 1: have any other resources and they trying to make ends
• 58:11
  Speaker 1: meet and they don't have nothing else to do.
• 58:13
  Speaker 4: Give these kids something else to do.
• 58:14
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 58:15
  Speaker 4: You don't seem like you care about your image no
• 58:16
  Speaker 4: more either.
• 58:18
  Speaker 11: My image, like, my image was cool and stuff. This
• 58:22
  Speaker 11: is the time of the prayer, too.
• 58:24
  Speaker 4: My prayer time. My aim is just like... You want
• 58:28
  Speaker 4: to stop and pray?
• 58:29
  Speaker 11: We can.
• 58:29
  Speaker 4: Yeah, come on. You going to do it?
• 58:31
  Speaker 6: Let's do it.
• 58:31
  Speaker 5: Come on. Come on. Come on.

  Speaker 3: Let's get to the latest with Lauren.
• 59:15
  Speaker 2: So yesterday, guys, Beyonce's Be Good Foundation, which.
• 59:18
  Speaker 17: Is a foundation she founded, announced that they're going to
• 59:45
  Speaker 17: be donating $ 200, 000 to help with the relief efforts in Gary, Indiana.
• 59:51
  Speaker 17: So now this money will be donated in grants to
• 59:55
  Speaker 17: the City Life Center and Angel by Nature to support
• 59:58
  Speaker 17: flood relief efforts. This will provide immediate relief to communities
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 17: most affected, including the city of Gary.
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 5: I think that is fire.
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 4: Drop on the clues box for Be Good Foundation.
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 12: So when they're giving the money to what organizations, right?
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 12: Because what is the government doing? Because the government should
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 12: be fixing this.
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 5: And helping, right? They're dragging their damn feet.
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 17: They're giving it to the City Life Center and Angel
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 17: by Nature are the two organizations that they pointed to.
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 5: But I mean, I know like.
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 4: You can't wait on the government.
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 5: You're right.
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 4: The government should be doing stuff, but you can't wait
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 4: on the government.
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 12: And that's a lot of people. Yeah, I just don't
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 12: want the government to be like, oh, well, B got it.
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 12: We ain't got to.
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 5: But they ain't got it yet.
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 8: That's why B got it, because they ain't been giving
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 8: it to him. Them people been in the dark for, what, 13,
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 8: 14 days?
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 3: That's crazy. That's so damn crazy.
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 8: And then everybody don't have power. Like, the whole city
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 8: don't have power. Or even, you know, food and everything.
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 3: Everybody don't have help.
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 1: Plus, I'm sure they did their research, so they know
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 1: what organization to give it to that's going to get
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 1: relief right to the people.
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 4: Right, right. Salute to B.
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 5: That's amazing. Yeah, salute to her.

  Speaker 4: I'm the liar.
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 3: As soon as you said bleak.

  Speaker 5: They didn't do public service announcement for bleak.
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 2: Stop.

  Speaker 4: I'm serious. And that's the name of the show, Rock Climbing,
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 4: but it's R-O-C. And so he's going to be coming.
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 4: That's hard. You'll see. By the end of the day,
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 4: they're going to announce it. Dropping the clues bombs from
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 4: Memphis Bleak.
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 6: Okay.
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 4: Anyway.
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 3: That's dope.
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 6: Yes.
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 5: Congratulations or not. Shifting gears a bit.
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 17: So Chris Brown is telling the court that he is
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 17: too busy to come to court because he's on tour
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 17: with Usher.
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 10: Damn.
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 5: So, I mean, look.
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 4: That'll work if you get the judge some tickets. I
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 4: bet you the judge wants some tickets.
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 18: All right.
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 5: So this is what's happening.
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 17: So in that legal matter with the ex-housekeeper, right, the
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 17: woman that was bit by the dog who was awarded
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 17: all of that money, that $ 13 million, Chris Brown is
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 17: being asked to come to court because they want to
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 17: go through his, they want to review his finances and
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 17: his bank statements to see how he's going to pay
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 17: her the judgments that he owes her. But Chris Brown
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 17: recently filed a document that says he's a little bit
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 17: busy because he's on that tour with Usher and that
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 17: they might even be extending the tour with more additional dates.
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 17: So he can't come into court to do it. Now,
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 17: I don't think that there's an issue here because we
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 17: know that he is on the tour. And it's like,
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 17: why does he have to be there, would be my question.
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 8: Can't his team of lawyers go in there and stand
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 8: before him, you know, stand on his behalf or somebody's?
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 5: I would assume that that's how it goes.
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 17: But Chris Brown is also pointing to the fact that
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 17: there's no evidence that he ever tried to conceal or...
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 17: transfer any assets or money to avoid paying a debt.
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 17: And he's right in Vegas. He's not far. He's not
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 17: in Vegas. He's not far from, you know, court. So
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 17: he's not trying. He basically is not trying to get
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 17: away from any of this. He just has things to do.
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 4: Shouldn't the dog be in court?
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 2: Yes, absolutely. Why is Chris dead?
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 4: Send the goddamn dog.
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 5: With a damn muzzle.
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 3: They probably killed the dog.
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 5: No, we really don't know what happened.
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 3: Should we die?
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 12: I didn't say for factual, but that's what usually happens,
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 12: especially a bite this serious.
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 5: They probably put the dog down.
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 4: I would do the same thing and sell him for parts.
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 5: Yeah, but wouldn't we have heard that?
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 3: What parts would you sell him for?
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 4: Actors.
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 5: What you mean?
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 3: What you mean selling for parts? No, what you mean?
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 6: What?
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 5: You don't know? I do see reports that people will
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 5: buy it.
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 4: Sell the dog. All right now.
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 5: All right. I don't think the dog is here anymore, y'all.
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 5: All right.
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 4: Well, the dog's in heaven.
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 5: Yeah. KTLA is reporting that the dog isn't.
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 4: Girl, say the dog got killed. You got euthanized.
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 3: You say the dog was put down. That's what you
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 3: got to say. That's what usually happens with a dog bite.
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 5: You're a reporter. I know. It was just sad to say. No,
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 5: you didn't say it yet. Say it.
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 17: The dog was put down on Christmas Eve following the attack,
• 1:05:44

  Speaker 3: Like that it's.
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 17: The picture that they have with the dog in the
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 17: cage I'm sorry alright yeah the dog was.
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 3: Put down 36 murders in the first hour didn't sound
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 3: like that All dogs go to heaven. That's what they say, right?
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 17: And the next latest, we're going to talk about, speaking
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 17: of Vegas, we're going to talk about Mary J. Blige

• 1:06:17
  Speaker 1: a word with him. There's a teachable moment in all
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 1: of this.
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 4: I believe.
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 5: He had enough words. That's his problem.
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 3: Too many words.
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 4: All right. We'll get to that next.
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 3: It's the Breakfast Club.
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 4: Good morning.
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 9: Taylor!
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 10: Taylor!
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 5: I made it.
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 4: It's time for Donkey of the Day. There's a bunch
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 4: of donkeys out here in this street. I'll make Donkey
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 4: of the Day. Called Donkey of the Day. It really
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 4: caught me off guard.
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 1: We live a life where we bite our tongue based
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 1: off who we may offend. We never would say anything.
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 5: Give it to him.
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 4: Give it to him. You are a donkey.
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 5: That is why Charlemagne is here.
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 4: Some donkey of the day just saw themselves.
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 2: On The Breakfast Club.
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 1: Okay, so we'll be wild for a second.
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 5: You're an idiot, man. You should fight him.
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 3: You should really snuff him, right?
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 2: Wise.
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 1: Donkey of the day for Tuesday, September 1st goes to
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 1: Dwayne Keefie D.
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 2: Davis.
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 4: Now, if you haven't heard yesterday... Dwayne Keefie D.
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 1: Davis was found guilty of orchestrating the 1996 murder of
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 1: Tupac Shakur. Yes, 30 years ago on September 6th, 1996,
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 1: Tupac Shakur was shot in Las Vegas and then died
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 1: seven days later on September 13th. For three decades, nobody
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 1: was convicted for his murder until yesterday.
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 4: Let's go to ABC 7 for the report, please.
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 19: Dwayne Davis has been the only man ever charged in
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 19: the 30-year-old murder of rapper Tupac Shakur. Less than an
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 19: hour ago, the jury came back unanimous, affirming what Davis
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 19: has spent years admitting publicly.
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 10: We, the jury in the both entitled case, find the
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 10: defendant Dwayne Keith Davis as follows.
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 5: Count one, murder with use of a deadly weapon. Guilty
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 5: of first degree murder with use of a deadly weapon.
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 5: Dated this 31st day of August 2026.
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 19: It took the jury less than three hours to reach
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 19: that verdict, guilty of first-degree murder. Prosecutors had told jurors
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 19: to believe the various statements Davis had made over 30
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 19: years admitting to the crime, including a book he published
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 19: admitting his involvement in Tupac's murder. Davis is not accused
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 19: of pulling the trigger, but instead of orchestrating the shooting.
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 19: and providing the gun. Defense attorneys had told the jury
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 19: there was no evidence to back up Davis' previous claims
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 19: of involvement. Davis, like he's done previously during this trial,
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 19: spoke up in court just.
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 4: Moments after the verdict.
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 19: Perhaps difficult to hear Davis asking for evidence to be
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 19: returned and his intent to appeal.
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, there's an old saying, if you give
• 1:08:41
  Speaker 1: a man enough rope, he'll hang himself. Well, in this era,
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 1: if you give a man enough microphones, he'll create Exhibit A. OK,
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 1: we're not going to sit here and act like Keefie
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 1: D didn't earn this citizen.
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 4: He worked hard for it. That's the game, right?
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 1: Right. That's what we teach people. Work hard and get results. Oh,
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 1: Keefie D worked hard to get convicted. for his role
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 1: in the murder of Tupac Shakur. This man has years
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 1: of Vlad TV interviews. He's on documentaries. He wrote a
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 1: memoir about There was a time when investigators had to
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 1: interrogate suspects. Now, all you got to do is give
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 1: a brother a.
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 4: Podcast set up, okay?
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 1: Couple of shore microphones, some LED lights, a bottle of
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 1: alkaline water. Hell, don't even got to be alkaline. Dasani
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 1: will do, okay? And it all starts with Vlad saying.
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 4: So walk me through what happened that night.
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 1: Then people get to chatting and law enforcement is sitting
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 1: at home watching YouTube like, hold up, run that back. OK,
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 1: this is why KPD deserves donkey of the day. You know,
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 1: I try to make these situations teachable moments. And there
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 1: is a lot to learn here. See, KPD isn't getting
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 1: donkey of the day just because he talked. No. OK,
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 1: it is what I believe all that talking represents. And
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 1: that is sometimes surviving consequences for too long. convinces you
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 1: that consequences no longer exist okay but you can't run
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 1: from yourself all right that's why i like for consequences
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 1: to happen immediately this era isn't seeing enough consequences for
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 1: their actions and that's why people move the way they
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 1: move okay think about it you do something wrong and
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 1: nothing happens for a week you're nervous okay nothing happens
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 1: for a year you're still looking over your shoulder okay
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 1: five years you start relaxing All right, 10 years, you
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 1: start thinking you got away with it. 20 years, oh,
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 1: now you really comfortable. 30 years, you think you got
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 1: away scot-free. Now you're doing press and you're cashing in.
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 1: Keefy D, you have successfully avoided consequences for three decades.
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 1: Why then are you doing media about the thing you
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 1: allegedly avoided consequences for? Who robs a bank in 1996,
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 1: gets away with it, and then in 2022 starts.
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 4: A YouTube channel called How I Robbed That Bank? in 1996.
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 4: By the way, it's a great movie coming out in
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 4: November called How to Rob a Bank. It's incredible. You
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 4: should watch it.
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 2: But no!
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 4: Learn to shut up!
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 5: Alright?
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 4: You avoided consequences.
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 1: But this is an example of how sometimes getting away
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 1: with something is the worst thing that can happen to
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 1: a fool because consequences actually teach you boundaries. But when
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 1: consequences don't come, some people start thinking they're untouchable.
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 4: That's what happened to Keefy D.
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 1: That's when relief becomes confidence, and then confidence becomes arrogance,
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 1: and arrogance starts talking. All over the world, okay? That's
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 1: what happened to Keefie D. His arrogance got the best
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 1: of him. An ego needs an audience, okay? That's the
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 1: part people don't understand. Sometimes people don't just want to
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 1: get away with something. Eventually, they want credit for getting
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 1: away with it.
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 4: That's ego.
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 1: That's why I don't even want the lesson here to
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 1: simply be stop going on podcasts, telling your business. That's
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 1: a basic way of thinking, okay? Podcasts aren't the problem.
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 1: Cameras and microphones aren't the problem. Ego is the problem. OK,
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 1: the platforms just give the ego amplification.
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 4: And here's another thing.
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 1: Keefy D's defense argued that some of the things he
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 1: said publicly were essentially exaggerated or fabricated for entertainment and money.
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 4: OK, let's unpack that.
• 1:12:01
  Speaker 1: If the stories were true, you were publicly discussing your
• 1:12:04
  Speaker 1: involvement in one of the most infamous murders in American
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 1: pop culture history. And if the stories weren't true, you
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 1: spent years pretending to be involved in one of the
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 1: most infamous murders in American pop culture history. So, sir,
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 1: which one would you like Donkey of the Day for? OK,
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 1: because you actually participated or you pretended to participate for clout.
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 1: That is another disease killing our society. People underestimate the
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 1: cost of turning their lives into content because once everything
• 1:12:33
  Speaker 1: becomes content, you start asking the wrong questions, okay? Instead
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 1: of asking, should I say this? You start asking, will
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 1: people watch this? Okay, will people listen to this? Those
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 1: are two completely different questions. And most of the time,
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 1: the thing everybody wants to hear is exactly the thing
• 1:12:50
  Speaker 1: you should never say, especially when it's an unsolved murder.
• 1:12:56
  Speaker 1: Justice delayed is not necessarily justice denied. Just because something
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 1: hasn't caught up with you doesn't mean it never will.
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 1: And time passing doesn't automatically erase consequences, especially when you
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 1: keep talking and telling us about the thing you have
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 1: escaped consequences for. Some people survive their consequences and mistake
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 1: survival for immunity. But the reality of the situation is
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 1: the statute of limitations on stupid is forever. Please let
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 1: Remy Ma give Dwayne Keefie D. Davis the biggest hee-haw.
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 10: Hee-haw.
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 13: Hee-haw.
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 5: You stupid motherfucker.
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 4: You dumb. He earned it, man. Yep.
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 2: He earned it.
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 4: Worked hard for it.
• 1:13:39
  Speaker 3: Sure did.
• 1:13:39
  Speaker 4: Sure did. If you campaign hard enough, you will get elected.
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 6: Okay?
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 3: And he was, what, 63?
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 2: Damn, yo.
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 3: So he was probably going to die in jail.
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 5: That's wild, though.
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 3: And he's been home all this time.
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 9: Mm-hmm.
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 10: Talking.
• 1:13:54
  Speaker 3: All he had to do was just shut up.
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 5: That's it.
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 4: Here you go. You needed the credit.
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 12: Well, thank you for that donkey today, sir. Now, when
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 12: we come back, 800-585-1051. This is going viral yesterday. A
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 12: young man found out nine years later that his daughter,
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 12: that he was about to take school shopping, is not
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 12: his biological daughter.
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 3: This is how he found out.
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 18: I found out that my nine-year-old daughter is not biologically mine.
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 18: We took a prenatal paternity test from a company I
• 1:14:23
  Speaker 18: had found online called Prenatal Paternity. When she first told me,
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 18: I stayed up all night researching that like it was
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 18: the SAT.
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 4: The results came back that I was a father. Case closed.
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 18: So I wasn't walking around suspicious for the whole nine years.
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 18: On Friday, I went to CVS and I got one
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 18: of these. I swabbed my mouth, I swabbed her mouth,
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 18: and I sent it in. I found out on school
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 18: supply day.
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 5: When they emailed me the text back, it said I
• 1:14:47
  Speaker 5: was not the father.
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 4: I'm like, not the father?
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 2: What the?
• 1:14:50
  Speaker 18: I thought it had to be some type of mistake
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 18: because how the first test say this and this say that?
• 1:14:54
  Speaker 18: I was so mad and I'm not gonna lie. Right now,
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 18: I don't know how to feel. I don't know what
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 18: to do moving forward. All I do know is that
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 18: this hurts like hell.
• 1:15:03
  Speaker 1: Hey man, he been through that baby wasn't his.
• 1:15:05
  Speaker 4: This year he broke it than he ever been.
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 1: So he had to get out of buying them goddamn
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 1: school supplies.
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 4: He still took.
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 3: A school supply shopping.
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 4: Oh, he did?
• 1:15:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he still took a school supply shopping.
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 8: But what I hope is that he had the conversation
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 8: with her before he came to the internet.
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 5: You know what I mean?
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 8: Because like, she although she's nine i'm pretty sure she
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 8: has the internet social media whatever and um what do
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 8: you even tell the child and then first of all
• 1:15:29

• 1:15:39
  Speaker 17: were in that.
• 1:15:40
  Speaker 4: Situation what would you do Grandma Ben told that boy
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 4: that wasn't his baby.
• 1:15:49
  Speaker 5: It'd be your grandma.
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 3: You just realized.
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 5: She'd be looking at the ears first.
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 12: You just realized that child is not yours biologically.
• 1:15:55
  Speaker 5: But he just admitted that he got a test at first.
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 12: The child is nine years old. What do you do
• 1:15:59
  Speaker 12: in that situation? Let's discuss when we come back. It's
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 12: The Breakfast Club.
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 4: Good morning.
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 5: It's Topic Time.
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 17: Call 800-585-1051 to join in to the discussion with The
• 1:16:09
  Speaker 17: Breakfast Club.
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 5: Morning, everybody.
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 12: It's DJ Envy, Just Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are
• 1:16:19
  Speaker 12: The Breakfast Club. Lonely Rose is here as well, if
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 12: you're just joining us. We're talking about something that went
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 12: viral a couple of days ago.
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 3: Gentlemen, what's his name?
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 5: Eastside Evo.
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 3: Eastside Evo. He posted yesterday that he.
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 12: Just found out that his nine-year-old daughter is not his
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 12: biological daughter.
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 3: He did a test, and he just found out.
• 1:16:35
  Speaker 12: And we're asking, what would you do in that situation?
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 3: Now, Jess, you were talking about... about, you were more
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 3: interested in the conversation he would have.
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 8: Yeah, like, you know, what is the conversation that you,
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 8: how do you even tell a kid, yo, I'm not
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 8: even really a dad. You know, I guess it depends
• 1:16:48
  Speaker 8: on the age, you know, if they're ready or even
• 1:16:50
  Speaker 8: mature enough to have a conversation as such, right?
• 1:16:52
  Speaker 5: But, The moms, yo, like, you know what she was doing.
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 5: You know what I mean? You knew that this was
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 5: not my child.
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 8: How do you let a man think that this is.
• 1:17:02
  Speaker 5: Especially if you on child support.
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 1:17:05
  Speaker 5: It's like, yo, what's going on?
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 8: But that's a world of hurt, especially if you thought
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 8: this child was yours and you don't have any more kids.
• 1:17:12
  Speaker 5: Now you don't have nothing.
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 4: I wouldn't tell the child.
• 1:17:16
  Speaker 1: You know, I've had homeboys who've been in that situation.
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 6: Mm-hmm.
• 1:17:20
  Speaker 4: And, you know.
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 1: They were in their child's life for such a long
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 1: time that that's the only father that that child knew.
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 1: So when he found out that he wasn't the father...
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 1: He didn't tell her that she's a child. I don't
• 1:17:31
  Speaker 1: know if he told her later on in life. You know,
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 1: I really don't know. But at the time he didn't
• 1:17:35
  Speaker 1: tell her and he just held it down and kept
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 1: being that father figure because, you know, an invested nine years.
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 5: But did the new father try to step up or
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 5: did they? You know what I mean?
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 8: Because at some point when you find out if the
• 1:17:47
  Speaker 8: person who has who's been absent, who probably didn't even
• 1:17:50
  Speaker 8: know that they had a child.
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 5: What happens with that? Because now I want to meet
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 5: my child.
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 12: See, my first reaction is, that ain't my child. I'm not, like,
• 1:17:57
  Speaker 12: I feel bamboozled, right?
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 6: Right.
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 12: But then I had to look back at it, let's
• 1:18:01
  Speaker 12: say Brooklyn, who's just turned 10. If that happened to
• 1:18:03
  Speaker 12: me and Brooklyn, you would still take care of that child.
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 12: Because that's Brooklyn's, she would be my daughter regardless.
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 10: Exactly.
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 4: You have an emotional, spiritual attachment to this girl.
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 5: Exactly.
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 12: But what the mom is not going to do is
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 12: have me on child support. I don't feel like you're
• 1:18:16
  Speaker 12: going to make me pay if that's not my- I'm
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 12: legally responsible for the child.
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 1: I don't know if that's true either because didn't that
• 1:18:20
  Speaker 1: happen to Neal? Don't Neal got to pay for a child.
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 8: That's- Well, when you sign the birth certificate, you are automatically,
• 1:18:27
  Speaker 8: what is it, obligated or you're responsible for the child
• 1:18:30
  Speaker 8: legally because you signed the birth certificate.
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 5: I think that's what happened to Neal.
• 1:18:33
  Speaker 8: Now, it's a lot of things that you got to
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 8: do with the start of that process to get your
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 8: name off, but there's no guarantee that you can actually
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 8: get your name off.
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 12: Yeah, because, you know, the fact that, let's say, she
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 12: has this gentleman on child support for all these years.
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 12: I would be like, no, I'm going to take care
• 1:18:48
  Speaker 12: of my kid. I'm going to take care of the child.
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 12: my kid, because it is, but you're not going to
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 12: force me to pay.
• 1:18:53
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 3: Where before, you know, you had legal right to force me.
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 5: And do you get all that money back when you
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 5: go and present? You know what I mean?
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 8: No, I'm just saying, like, because that's why I know
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 8: you feel robbed, you feel betrayal, you feel deceived.
• 1:19:05
  Speaker 5: I can't even imagine as a man how that would feel.
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 5: It's unfortunate all the way around. Like, I've been here
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 5: this whole time. But, like, something he knew. For you
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 5: to do another test, you knew something wasn't right.
• 1:19:18
  Speaker 4: I told you that wasn't yours, boy. You been knew that. Okay?
• 1:19:21
  Speaker 4: I don't know. Did that happen to Neil? I feel
• 1:19:23
  Speaker 4: like that happened to Neil.
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 5: I just looked it.
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 17: Up, and they said that he did ask for paternity,
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 17: but they found out that the children were his. But
• 1:19:28
  Speaker 17: that's Google AI, so don't quote it.
• 1:19:30
  Speaker 8: I'm telling you, I feel like whether you're married, one
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 8: night stand, whatever, in a relationship, committed or not, at
• 1:19:38
  Speaker 8: the birth... Of a baby, you should always get a
• 1:19:43
  Speaker 8: paternity test. I think one should be administered no matter what.
• 1:19:46
  Speaker 8: I don't even care if you're married or not.
• 1:19:48
  Speaker 3: But you don't think that's disrespectful?
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 5: Nah, yeah. I don't.
• 1:19:50
  Speaker 3: All right, let's say Chris came up to you and
• 1:19:53
  Speaker 3: was like.
• 1:19:54
  Speaker 6: Really, Chris?
• 1:19:54
  Speaker 4: Maybe not.
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 5: Come on.
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 3: Maybe not Chris. Maybe he came out looking like Chris.
• 1:19:59
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know.
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 5: You mean like just regular dating?
• 1:20:02
  Speaker 4: It's in my honor.
• 1:20:02
  Speaker 5: Brittany's like, no, it's yours. Say it again. Like they
• 1:20:04
  Speaker 5: should have a paternity test if they're not married. This
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 5: is crazy. In general is what you're saying? Yes, I
• 1:20:08
  Speaker 5: think at the time of- I think Chris.
• 1:20:09
  Speaker 4: Should be trying to figure out if Jess the mama.
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 5: Every birth.
• 1:20:11
  Speaker 4: Okay, I think y'all might have took the wrong baby home.
• 1:20:13
  Speaker 5: Y'all, shut up. Shut up. But then that would mean-
• 1:20:16
  Speaker 5: Just shut up.
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 3: That's Chris Baby.
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 5: No, it don't mean nothing.
• 1:20:18
  Speaker 4: That's Chris Baby. That's Chris Baby.
• 1:20:19
  Speaker 5: Don't try to figure it out, Lauren.
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 4: That's Chris Baby.
• 1:20:21
  Speaker 3: They some assholes.
• 1:20:21
  Speaker 4: Who's this?
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 16: It looks like you should.
• 1:20:27
  Speaker 12: Be dating Lovey, but go ahead.
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 6: What happened with you, Mama?
• 1:20:33
  Speaker 16: Man, what the hell is you talking.
• 1:20:36
  Speaker 4: About this morning?
• 1:20:38
  Speaker 1: We can't understand a goddamn word you're saying. All I
• 1:20:41
  Speaker 1: know is that it sounds like you done told four
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 1: different baby daddies that they the baby daddy, okay?
• 1:20:45
  Speaker 4: That's what happened. That's what it says. It's happened to her.
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 3: She had told two guys.
• 1:20:48
  Speaker 5: She was dealing with.
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 16: And what happened was, you know, my conscience kept bothering me.
• 1:20:54
  Speaker 16: And I told them, and I said, look, I'm not sure.
• 1:20:59
  Speaker 16: It means what's happening in my life.
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 6: You could be, you could be.
• 1:21:03
  Speaker 16: And it was accepted, you know what I'm saying? But
• 1:21:06
  Speaker 16: it hurted, but everybody still played a part. Because we
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 16: were in the neighborhood.
• 1:21:12
  Speaker 1: What did that young girl grow up to be?
• 1:21:15
  Speaker 6: Damn, stop it.
• 1:21:17
  Speaker 10: Tell me right now.
• 1:21:18
  Speaker 16: Tell me right now.
• 1:21:20
  Speaker 10: She what?
• 1:21:22
  Speaker 5: She hasn't talked to us in years.
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 17: But the one daughter that you were talking about, though,
• 1:21:25
  Speaker 17: that wasn't his, what did she grow up to be?
• 1:21:27
  Speaker 16: She's an entrepreneur. She makes new logos.
• 1:21:29
  Speaker 3: She's working at Starless.
• 1:21:31
  Speaker 16: She said you make logos.
• 1:21:32
  Speaker 6: You got to chat GPT?
• 1:21:33
  Speaker 4: You got to chat GPT.
• 1:21:35
  Speaker 5: Jody, thank you. Thank you. We appreciate you.
• 1:21:36
  Speaker 10: That's right.
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 4: She said she appreciate the prayer.
• 1:21:38
  Speaker 2: You heard her?
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 3: The little bit of prayer.
• 1:21:40
  Speaker 10: It was a little bit.
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 16: But anyway, let's go to another line.
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 4: Hello, who's this?
• 1:21:56
  Speaker 7: Hey, how you doing? This is Len from Jacksonville.
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 3: Hey, what's up?
• 1:21:59
  Speaker 5: Good morning.
• 1:21:59
  Speaker 3: Talk to us.
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 7: Good morning. On the topic, I was in a relationship.
• 1:22:05
  Speaker 7: I knew the kids were not mine. They were five
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 7: and six months old. After eight years, we broke up.
• 1:22:10
  Speaker 7: I kept taking care of the kids. It sucks because
• 1:22:14
  Speaker 7: anytime we got mad and arguing and stuff, I didn't
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 7: want to do it. But the love for the children
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 7: should supersede what you found out.
• 1:22:21
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 13: Yeah.
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 1:22:23
  Speaker 7: So I want to tell that brother, man, if you
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 7: really love that child, just keep on pushing.
• 1:22:28
  Speaker 4: He does. Like, that's the reality of the situation.
• 1:22:30
  Speaker 1: There's no way you're going to be with a child
• 1:22:32
  Speaker 1: for nine years from the time they got on this planet,
• 1:22:35
  Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden you can emotionally disconnect
• 1:22:37
  Speaker 1: from that.
• 1:22:37
  Speaker 4: You can't.
• 1:22:38
  Speaker 3: It's so wild. Len, you said it was a newborn, too, right?
• 1:22:41
  Speaker 3: A baby, too, right?
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 7: Yeah, one was five years old. The other one was
• 1:22:45
  Speaker 7: six months old.
• 1:22:46
  Speaker 3: So the six-month-old, would y'all still stay with the six-month-old?
• 1:22:48
  Speaker 3: You know the six-month-old.
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 4: Now I can bounce from a six month old. See
• 1:22:51
  Speaker 4: what I'm saying?
• 1:22:51
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah.
• 1:22:52
  Speaker 4: I can get a body.
• 1:22:53
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I just met you.
• 1:22:55
  Speaker 4: Six month old lady.
• 1:22:56
  Speaker 5: They can barely know his name at six months.
• 1:22:57
  Speaker 4: But hold up.
• 1:22:58
  Speaker 8: How the hell did the lady have a five month
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 8: old and a six month old?
• 1:23:02
  Speaker 5: What the hell?
• 1:23:02
  Speaker 6: No, no, no.
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 3: Five year old and a six month old.
• 1:23:04
  Speaker 5: Oh, all right, all right, all right. I'm like, what's
• 1:23:06
  Speaker 5: going on?
• 1:23:07
  Speaker 4: What kind of vagina you got?
• 1:23:07
  Speaker 10: No, wait.
• 1:23:09
  Speaker 7: I stayed in their life. I mean, the oldest, I
• 1:23:12
  Speaker 7: just put them in college or a secondary school for
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 7: education in baseball.
• 1:23:17
  Speaker 5: I really respect men like that.
• 1:23:19
  Speaker 7: You got to let the love do what it do.
• 1:23:22
  Speaker 7: Maybe not mess with that woman.
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 6: Absolutely.
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 5: Thank you.
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 2: I'm with y'all.
• 1:23:26
  Speaker 3: I don't know about the six-month-old.
• 1:23:28
  Speaker 11: Six-month-old's not his new.
• 1:23:29
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 5: You are hell.
• 1:23:31
  Speaker 17: He gonna laugh when I say I respect men like that.
• 1:23:35
  Speaker 4: You do respect men like that. I get it.
• 1:23:37
  Speaker 5: Who step up and be a father? You choose a child.
• 1:23:40
  Speaker 4: When your biological didn't bother.
• 1:23:42
  Speaker 9: Yes.
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 5: That mother be a father, be a biological didn't bother. No,
• 1:23:46
  Speaker 5: that's Shaq.
• 1:23:46
  Speaker 4: Shout out to Shaq. No.
• 1:23:47
  Speaker 5: You trying to be funny. You trying to be funny.
• 1:23:50
  Speaker 5: As soon as I said that, he couldn't even hold
• 1:23:51
  Speaker 5: back his laugh.
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 4: Yo, pull up Shaq Biological didn't bother since they think
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 4: I'm playing.
• 1:23:56
  Speaker 5: Nah, but why you guys.
• 1:23:57
  Speaker 4: Using lyrics right now?
• 1:23:57
  Speaker 3: He did a whole song about his stepdad.
• 1:24:00
  Speaker 4: Stepdaddy.
• 1:24:00
  Speaker 17: No, I think it's just amazing when people choose a child,
• 1:24:04
  Speaker 17: even if it's not theirs, and commit to being that
• 1:24:06
  Speaker 17: child's father.
• 1:24:06
  Speaker 5: My grandfather did that with my mom.
• 1:24:08
  Speaker 4: She traumatized, though.
• 1:24:09
  Speaker 1: That content creator, he definitely knew that baby wasn't his.
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 1: There was something, even though he probably grew to love
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 1: that baby, there was something in the back of his
• 1:24:16
  Speaker 1: mind all these years that was like, man, I don't
• 1:24:18
  Speaker 1: think this is mine.
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Because why would you go get a test?
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 1: He said, didn't he say in the audio that he
• 1:24:22
  Speaker 1: felt like the baby wasn't his?
• 1:24:24
  Speaker 8: No, he said I wasn't just living with doubt for
• 1:24:26
  Speaker 8: nine years straight, but there may have been moments where
• 1:24:29
  Speaker 8: he did, because obviously something made you go to test.
• 1:24:30
  Speaker 5: At nine years old, you also have to explain what
• 1:24:32
  Speaker 5: you're doing. Like, why are you swabbing me, Dad?
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 1: COVID.
• 1:24:36
  Speaker 4: You got to get COVID tested.
• 1:24:37
  Speaker 3: But we'll take some more calls when we come back.
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 6: 800-585-1051.
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 3: It's The Breakfast Club.

• 1:24:48
  Speaker 12: If you're just joining us, Lauren, break down what happened.
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 17: So Isai Evo, I think it's Evo or Ivo, he
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 17: is an online content creator, but yesterday he posted a
• 1:24:55
  Speaker 17: video talking about the fact that he found out his
• 1:24:58
  Speaker 17: nine-year-old daughter wasn't his.
• 1:25:00
  Speaker 3: Well, let's go to the phone lines. A lot of
• 1:25:01
  Speaker 3: people want to discuss.
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 4: Hello, who's this?
• 1:25:03
  Speaker 5: Hi, you guys.
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 10: Real quick, actually, my sisters both were doing it. My
• 1:25:09
  Speaker 10: best friend, she did it, man. She rest in peace.
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 10: She lied to her husband the whole time that the
• 1:25:14
  Speaker 10: baby was his, and it wasn't. I kept going, why
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 10: would you do that? It was a thing she had
• 1:25:20
  Speaker 10: going on with her inside. Like, she didn't want to.
• 1:25:24
  Speaker 10: She was embarrassed, number one. And then she knew her
• 1:25:26
  Speaker 10: husband was going to be able to take care.
• 1:25:28
  Speaker 5: Of the baby.
• 1:25:29
  Speaker 4: How'd she die?
• 1:25:29
  Speaker 10: It came out in the divorce when they had to
• 1:25:31
  Speaker 10: do the drug overdose.
• 1:25:35
  Speaker 5: Oh, man.
• 1:25:36
  Speaker 3: You said it came out in the divorce?
• 1:25:38
  Speaker 10: Sheesh. Yeah, it came out in the divorce proceedings. They
• 1:25:41
  Speaker 10: had to take a paternity test. And then that's when
• 1:25:44
  Speaker 10: they found out that he was not. The entree was
• 1:25:48
  Speaker 10: not his. And it really, it separated them. But she said,
• 1:25:52
  Speaker 10: this is your baby, this is your baby. There was
• 1:25:54
  Speaker 10: no question, knowing that it wasn't.
• 1:25:57
  Speaker 4: That's so crazy. That, wow.
• 1:25:59
  Speaker 5: So f * * * ing insane. I'm so sorry.
• 1:26:01
  Speaker 5: And then you said you got two sisters? What town
• 1:26:03
  Speaker 5: y'all live in?
• 1:26:04
  Speaker 10: Sacramento, California. Damn.
• 1:26:07
  Speaker 3: Did he still take care of the kids?
• 1:26:08
  Speaker 10: Excuse me?
• 1:26:10
  Speaker 3: Did he still take care of the kids?
• 1:26:11
  Speaker 10: No, he actually doesn't take care of the baby at all.
• 1:26:13
  Speaker 6: Oh, he bounced.
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 10: The dad actually passed away. The dad passed away, and
• 1:26:19
  Speaker 10: the baby's being raised by the grandmother. And it's a
• 1:26:23
  Speaker 10: sad thing because the baby was created during... They were
• 1:26:27
  Speaker 10: cheating on each other's spouse. You know, they were cheating.
• 1:26:31
  Speaker 5: Oh, God.
• 1:26:32
  Speaker 3: And this baby's your niece, right?
• 1:26:34
  Speaker 5: No, that's our best friend's child.
• 1:26:36
  Speaker 10: No, this is my best friend's child, Bianca.
• 1:26:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:26:39
  Speaker 10: Now, my sisters, they don't want to tell the truth
• 1:26:41
  Speaker 10: about their baby daddy.
• 1:26:42
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah. They alive. And they like, uh-uh.

  Speaker 10: sisters lied. The one whose birthday is today.

• 1:27:13
  Speaker 10: come out when that's going to come out anyway.
• 1:27:16
  Speaker 4: Why are your sisters like so much?
• 1:27:20
  Speaker 5: Like, what's her best friend want to assist her?
• 1:27:22
  Speaker 4: Both of them.

  Speaker 10: about my baby daddy. And I never lied. I never lied,
• 1:27:38
  Speaker 10: not one time. And I may have. I was not
• 1:27:40
  Speaker 10: sure about two of them, but I never lied.
• 1:27:42
  Speaker 5: I told both of them.
• 1:27:43
  Speaker 4: Can I ask you a question?
• 1:27:44
  Speaker 10: Can I ask you a question?
• 1:27:46
  Speaker 1: You said you was a hoe back in the day.
• 1:27:47
  Speaker 1: Can you tell me what constitutes a hoe? How did
• 1:27:50
  Speaker 1: you know you was a hoe?
• 1:27:52
  Speaker 10: Oh, I was very scared.
• 1:27:54
  Speaker 4: That's a long story.
• 1:27:56
  Speaker 5: Charlotte, how much time you got, Charlotte?
• 1:27:57
  Speaker 9: I was having fun.
• 1:27:59
  Speaker 10: I was giving it up. I was having fun. But
• 1:28:01
  Speaker 10: I respected myself because I wasn't lying to anybody.
• 1:28:04
  Speaker 6: That's right.
• 1:28:05
  Speaker 10: I was cute. But I can't be respectable. And at
• 1:28:10
  Speaker 10: the end of the day, it's wrong all the way around.
• 1:28:14
  Speaker 11: It is.
• 1:28:14
  Speaker 10: It's going to hurt the child. I don't know my dad.
• 1:28:17
  Speaker 10: So that's really messed up. My mom passed away. So
• 1:28:20
  Speaker 10: I will never know that unless I take DNA tests
• 1:28:23
  Speaker 10: and things like that. But to see that it happens
• 1:28:26
  Speaker 10: in my family, to see that it happens around, it
• 1:28:29
  Speaker 10: is not right. Like, the child doesn't get messed up
• 1:28:32
  Speaker 10: at the end of the day.
• 1:28:33
  Speaker 6: That's right.
• 1:28:33
  Speaker 10: Because it's not fair to them.
• 1:28:35
  Speaker 3: So, Monique, you were so promiscuous back in the day.
• 1:28:37
  Speaker 3: You can't get money from anybody for your sister's birthday.
• 1:28:39
  Speaker 4: You had your own money.
• 1:28:40
  Speaker 13: No.
• 1:28:41
  Speaker 11: No.
• 1:28:41
  Speaker 10: Well, actually, actually, I just was trying to go big
• 1:28:44
  Speaker 10: up on the birthday club. I watch you guys all
• 1:28:47
  Speaker 10: the time. And the thing is, just bottom line, I
• 1:28:51
  Speaker 10: have a daughter. She's at Alcorn State University. I pay
• 1:28:54
  Speaker 10: her my portion of her tuition. I pay for her food. Like,
• 1:28:58
  Speaker 10: that's why I don't have extra money.
• 1:28:59
  Speaker 4: I'm going to tell you something.
• 1:29:00
  Speaker 10: I'm not on welfare. I don't get food stamps. So, like,
• 1:29:03
  Speaker 10: I literally take care of my daughter.
• 1:29:05
  Speaker 1: Let me tell you something. Hey, hey, I'm about to
• 1:29:07
  Speaker 1: send something to Zelly number five.
• 1:29:09
  Speaker 4: You know why? Because I like an honest hoe. That's
• 1:29:11
  Speaker 4: her son.
• 1:29:12
  Speaker 5: You still be trying to get money to her.
• 1:29:14
  Speaker 2: Zelly number five is her son.
• 1:29:15
  Speaker 5: See, Zelly number. I like your game.
• 1:29:19
  Speaker 4: You called back.
• 1:29:20
  Speaker 5: You didn't convince him. Now he about to come up
• 1:29:22
  Speaker 5: out of that pocket. That's right, girl.
• 1:29:24
  Speaker 3: That's how she did it.
• 1:29:25
  Speaker 5: And she did it without using the poop. Okay.
• 1:29:28
  Speaker 4: Oh, it's Velly.
• 1:29:29
  Speaker 5: Oh, goddamn, girl.
• 1:29:34
  Speaker 10: Velly. But he made it for me. That's why I
• 1:29:36
  Speaker 10: was saying he made it for me. That's why it
• 1:29:38
  Speaker 10: sounds like it's a rapper. But my son made my
• 1:29:42
  Speaker 10: cash app for me.
• 1:29:43
  Speaker 6: Okay.
• 1:29:43
  Speaker 10: Hold on.
• 1:29:44
  Speaker 1: Don't hang up on her yet. I want to make
• 1:29:45
  Speaker 1: sure this is the right one. Oh, Monique Flowers Darden.
• 1:29:48
  Speaker 3: That's her.
• 1:29:49
  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 1:29:49
  Speaker 4: Why you look like that? Let me see.
• 1:29:50
  Speaker 5: Let me see.
• 1:29:50
  Speaker 4: Let me see.
• 1:29:51
  Speaker 3: Why you look like that? She said she was pretty.
• 1:29:54
  Speaker 4: Why you laughing? Now I got to come over there
• 1:29:56
  Speaker 4: and see.
• 1:29:57
  Speaker 5: Nobody.
• 1:29:57
  Speaker 4: It's not.
• 1:29:58
  Speaker 1: No, Monique just lived. Monique, Monique, God bless you, Monique.
• 1:30:01
  Speaker 1: I'm about to send you a couple dollars for lunch, Monique.
• 1:30:03
  Speaker 4: That's what's up, man. Okay? No, for real.
• 1:30:05
  Speaker 10: I appreciate you guys. Even if you didn't, I wanted
• 1:30:08
  Speaker 10: to call back to just say, because I hadn't talked
• 1:30:11
  Speaker 10: to my sister since our grandmother died. I went and
• 1:30:14
  Speaker 10: took care of my great-grandmother. She was 101 years old.
• 1:30:16
  Speaker 10: She died on Christmas.
• 1:30:17
  Speaker 5: Oh, that's what's up. That is amazing. She lived like
• 1:30:20
  Speaker 5: the biblical years.
• 1:30:21
  Speaker 4: Not the grandmother, not a hoe.
• 1:30:22
  Speaker 5: Yes.

  Speaker 17: She was married five times, she said.
• 1:30:30
  Speaker 6: Yes.

  Speaker 4: You're my great-grandmother. No, no, she's not a hoe. She
• 1:30:33
  Speaker 4: got married five times.
• 1:30:34
  Speaker 5: That's right.
• 1:30:35
  Speaker 4: Jack's put a ring on that. That's right, that's right.
• 1:30:37
  Speaker 5: Jack, that's all I'm saying. You're still tricking when you're married. Hmm.

  Speaker 3: She said her grandma was a hoe, her mom was
• 1:30:42
  Speaker 3: a hoe, her sister was a hoe.
• 1:30:43
  Speaker 4: A generation that come from.

  Speaker 5: So what's the mean?
• 1:32:13
  Speaker 4: Top Dog Law.
• 1:32:14
  Speaker 17: So we reported this story about Tupac's murder trial and
• 1:32:17
  Speaker 17: Keefie D being found guilty at the top of the show.
• 1:32:21
  Speaker 17: I just received a statement on behalf of Tupac's family.
• 1:32:25
  Speaker 17: So they won't be doing any interviews until after the sentencing,
• 1:32:28
  Speaker 17: but they want to.
• 1:32:29
  Speaker 3: What family members?
• 1:32:30
  Speaker 17: This is so this is on behalf of Moprim Shakur,
• 1:32:34
  Speaker 17: who is Tupac's brother and his sister. I don't know
• 1:32:37
  Speaker 17: how to pronounce her name, so I don't want to
• 1:32:38
  Speaker 17: get it wrong. But it says, above all, we honor
• 1:32:40
  Speaker 17: Afeni Shakur, a mother whose strength and unshakable belief in
• 1:32:43
  Speaker 17: her son's truth carried this fight long before any of
• 1:32:45
  Speaker 17: us knew where it would lead. The family of Tupac
• 1:32:48
  Speaker 17: Amor Shakur is elated and relieved by today's verdict. We
• 1:32:52
  Speaker 17: would like to thank the jury for the thoughtful way
• 1:32:56
  Speaker 17: they fulfilled their duty and carefully listened to all of
• 1:32:58
  Speaker 17: the evidence. Our deep appreciation goes to our family and friends.
• 1:33:01
  Speaker 17: They want to extend gratitude to the marshals and the advocates.
• 1:33:04
  Speaker 17: They say while this verdict is decades in the making,
• 1:33:06
  Speaker 17: this is not the end of the story. Tupac's legacy
• 1:33:08
  Speaker 17: and impact on the world lives on and we will
• 1:33:10
  Speaker 17: continue to do everything we can to keep.
• 1:33:12
  Speaker 5: His spirit alive.
• 1:33:13
  Speaker 3: Ashe, Ashe.
• 1:33:14
  Speaker 10: Yeah.
• 1:33:15
  Speaker 5: All right, y'all. So I want to shift gears a bit.
• 1:33:18
  Speaker 5: So Mary J.
• 1:33:18
  Speaker 17: Blige, she participated in a commercial with a company called Suno.
• 1:33:24
  Speaker 17: And they're talking about a new product that they have
• 1:33:27
  Speaker 17: that uses AI to help creators create and produce songs.
• 1:33:32
  Speaker 17: And she's getting some pushback for it. Let's take a
• 1:33:34
  Speaker 17: listen to Mary J. Blige in a commercial. Now, for context,
• 1:33:36
  Speaker 17: she's sitting in a studio and they're playing her music
• 1:33:39
  Speaker 17: that was used with this product.
• 1:33:41
  Speaker 5: Let's take a listen.
• 1:33:42
  Speaker 4: So it is a tool that.
• 1:33:48
  Speaker 4: It's crazy. You like it?
• 1:33:58
  Speaker 1: It's dope.
• 1:33:59
  Speaker 13: I just process because I don't know what the hell
• 1:34:02
  Speaker 13: y'all talking about.
• 1:34:02
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:34:03
  Speaker 5: So I like to learn what you're talking about.
• 1:34:04
  Speaker 4: No, I get it.
• 1:34:05
  Speaker 3: Now it's like, ah, okay, this is pretty dope.
• 1:34:08
  Speaker 5: We can play with it more and learn more of
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 5: everything that's going on. For sure. It's pretty dope.
• 1:34:12
  Speaker 8: Why are we made and married? This is on brand
• 1:34:14
  Speaker 8: for her. She don't like people anyway.
• 1:34:16
  Speaker 5: This is great. She ain't got to work with nobody.
• 1:34:18
  Speaker 3: She's an artist. And the fact that she.
• 1:34:20
  Speaker 5: There's a lot of artists that are coming out and
• 1:34:22
  Speaker 5: saying that this is taking over.
• 1:34:23
  Speaker 12: They don't like AI taking over artistry and creating their
• 1:34:25
  Speaker 12: own music and their own sound.
• 1:34:27
  Speaker 3: Because now you don't need... actual person you.
• 1:34:29
  Speaker 1: Can just exactly how do you know that though like
• 1:34:31
  Speaker 1: i don't know why people don't have conversations with these
• 1:34:34
  Speaker 1: songwriters these artists these producers because i'm like mary i
• 1:34:36
  Speaker 1: have no idea what this technology is but it sounds
• 1:34:39
  Speaker 1: like she's in the studio as a human using this
• 1:34:42
  Speaker 1: technology to enhance whatever it is like i don't understand
• 1:34:45
  Speaker 1: why we don't have more conversations with these producers and
• 1:34:47
  Speaker 1: artists instead of just jumping out.
• 1:34:48
  Speaker 4: The window and saying you're using ai to replace you what.
• 1:34:52
  Speaker 17: I just don't understand why AI can't be one of
• 1:34:54
  Speaker 17: them things to teach his own.
• 1:34:55
  Speaker 5: If she wants to do it, let her. If she doesn't,
• 1:34:58
  Speaker 5: it's fine, too.
• 1:34:59
  Speaker 4: I don't know nothing about it. I don't know what
• 1:35:00
  Speaker 4: they're using it for. I have no idea.
• 1:35:01
  Speaker 12: I think people are mad because people are using the
• 1:35:04
  Speaker 12: artist that came out that's a full AI artist, right?
• 1:35:07
  Speaker 12: That has number one records and on the charts and
• 1:35:11
  Speaker 12: all that and is taking away they feel from artists
• 1:35:13
  Speaker 12: that are really good.
• 1:35:15
  Speaker 2: That's what people are thinking, though.
• 1:35:17
  Speaker 5: Okay. Well, listen... I know that that has happened, but
• 1:35:20
  Speaker 5: that's not everybody.
• 1:35:22
  Speaker 8: I mean, we do got producers that actually have AI artists,
• 1:35:24
  Speaker 8: but we also, like I heard you say Charlotte, like,
• 1:35:27
  Speaker 8: I mean, I don't know, like a few days ago
• 1:35:29
  Speaker 8: where a few weeks ago where you was like, yo,
• 1:35:31
  Speaker 8: what is it? Maybe it can help them improve skills
• 1:35:33
  Speaker 8: or something like, how are they using it?
• 1:35:35
  Speaker 5: Maybe it works for them in a certain way.
• 1:35:38
  Speaker 8: It's not just solely relying on AI because AI do
• 1:35:42
  Speaker 8: what you tell it to do. It has to work
• 1:35:45
  Speaker 8: for you phonetically, sonically, whatever, but.
• 1:35:47
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean?
• 1:35:48
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 1:35:48
  Speaker 4: I have no idea what pseudo is.
• 1:35:50
  Speaker 5: How you make it work for you. Make you money.
• 1:35:51
  Speaker 17: A lot of people are going to be trying to
• 1:35:52
  Speaker 17: figure it out now, though, that, you know, this whole
• 1:35:54
  Speaker 17: thing is beginning to pick up with Mary J.
• 1:35:56
  Speaker 13: Blige.
• 1:35:56
  Speaker 8: But I don't think she's going to give a damn
• 1:35:58
  Speaker 8: about nobody getting mad about it.
• 1:35:59
  Speaker 5: It's like, whatever, y'all. I do what I want to do.
• 1:36:01
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Mary fine. She survived the crispy chicken commercial. She'll
• 1:36:03
  Speaker 4: be able to survive this. Jesus.
• 1:36:04
  Speaker 5: She hates when people bring that up. She hate when
• 1:36:06
  Speaker 5: people sing it. She said, yeah, that's not right.
• 1:36:09
  Speaker 4: And you know what's so crazy about that crispy chicken commercial?
• 1:36:11
  Speaker 6: What?
• 1:36:12
  Speaker 4: It's her bop now.
• 1:36:13
  Speaker 5: Ain't it?
• 1:36:13
  Speaker 4: Boy, y'all hated it back then. Boy, that song is
• 1:36:15
  Speaker 4: a bop now.
• 1:36:15
  Speaker 2: I loved it back then.
• 1:36:16
  Speaker 3: It's always been a bop.
• 1:36:17
  Speaker 5: You know how many chicken rams?
• 1:36:18
  Speaker 4: It's always been a bop.
• 1:36:19
  Speaker 5: Especially the beginning part when she say, you said it
• 1:36:20
  Speaker 5: was in a chicken wrap. I used to walk around
• 1:36:22
  Speaker 5: saying that all day. I did not care. Lord have mercy.

  Speaker 1: Free event open to all ages. Now, the positive note
• 1:39:11
  Speaker 1: is simply this. With each passing year, I tend to
• 1:39:14
  Speaker 1: care less what people think of me, so... I have
• 1:39:17
  Speaker 1: stopped wearing masks for different people and learned to be
• 1:39:20
  Speaker 1: me all of the time, okay? One of the best
• 1:39:21
  Speaker 1: parts of growing older is realizing you don't need a
• 1:39:24
  Speaker 1: different version of yourself for every person you meet. Letting
• 1:39:26
  Speaker 1: go of the mask and becoming comfortable with who you
• 1:39:29
  Speaker 1: are brings a different kind of freedom that approval never can.
• 1:39:32
  Speaker 4: Are you comfortable being the same you everywhere? I hope so.
• 1:39:36
  Speaker 4: A salute to my people over at The Healing Guide, man.
• 1:39:39
