- 1:08Speaker 1: another quarantine work week. What's happening, how you're feeling out there?
- 1:11Speaker 1: How you're feeling man, shout out to all the mothers
- 1:13Speaker 1: out there. Hopefully you guys had a wonderful Mother's Day. Um,
- 1:17Speaker 1: I know I had to travel to Queens to us
- 1:20Speaker 1: see my mom. I was of course, I couldn't hug
- 1:22Speaker 1: or touch a kiss or anything like that. But we
- 1:24Speaker 1: played some music outside, we danced outside, we made us
- 1:27Speaker 1: some sons and she was very, very happy and excited.
- 1:30Speaker 1: She cried the whole time. And then we drove over
- 1:31Speaker 1: to Gear's mom's house and we did the same thing.
- 1:34Speaker 1: So it was just a great celebration day. We just relaxed,
- 1:37Speaker 1: chilled and what else could you do? I want to
- 1:41Speaker 1: drive Drive by celebrations are going to replace real celebrations
- 1:46Speaker 1: once all of this is over, because think about it, right,
- 1:48Speaker 1: when it's like a birthday party for one of your
- 1:51Speaker 1: kids classmates, a mother's day, people don't really want to
- 1:55Speaker 1: be bothered all the time with these long, elaborate four
- 1:57Speaker 1: or five hour parties. Sometimes those are a little dry,
- 2:00Speaker 1: boys just saying what's up. They make a lot of sense. Remember,
- 2:03Speaker 1: you know how it could before before the quarantine, people
- 2:05Speaker 1: would be like, I'm gonna do a quick little drive by, right,
- 2:07Speaker 1: I'm gonna do a little, quick, little, a little quick
- 2:09Speaker 1: little drive by being and out. Now you really get
- 2:11Speaker 1: to do that well for family members. For family members, no,
- 2:15Speaker 1: but for other things, I totally agree, because sometimes four
- 2:18Speaker 1: or five hour party, yeah buy you you don't. You don't.
- 2:21Speaker 1: You don't a gift out the car window? You especially
- 2:24Speaker 1: when the kid got three or four those a month,
- 2:27Speaker 1: because you know, all their little friends got their birthdays
- 2:29Speaker 1: run the same time, that quick little drive byby hitting. No,
- 2:33Speaker 1: kids would rather be at a party with their friends.
- 2:35Speaker 1: I would think, Yeah, yeah, kid's birthday parties aren't for you,
- 2:41Speaker 1: they're for the kids. Yeah. But you're absolutely right. But
- 2:44Speaker 1: we still parents at the end of the day. When
- 2:46Speaker 1: your parents, we're like, god, dang another one. It is exhausting.
- 2:49Speaker 1: Even though it's not about us, it is exhausting. It's
- 2:51Speaker 1: not even about you. Kids. We don't want probably don't
- 2:56Speaker 1: want to do a drive by. They probably want to
- 2:58Speaker 1: go and have it, know they I know they don't,
- 3:02Speaker 1: But I'm just speaking from a parents perspective. That would
- 3:05Speaker 1: be cool. Yeah, very much so very weak the horn
- 3:11Speaker 1: a couple of times, like I said, off the back
- 3:13Speaker 1: and keep it moving. Amazing the kid crying in the back,
- 3:17Speaker 1: Why can't I go in? Yeah, they're not crying. They excited.
- 3:20Speaker 1: They just excited to get out the house. Like my kids.
- 3:22Speaker 1: You gotta think about it. For my kids, this was
- 3:24Speaker 1: their friends. Because if the first time my kids have
- 3:27Speaker 1: been out the house, and I think ten weeks, ten weeks,
- 3:29Speaker 1: they haven't been out back, like out out the property,
- 3:32Speaker 1: you know, I mean, this was the first time. So
- 3:34Speaker 1: just them driving on the road, they were excited. And
- 3:36Speaker 1: we don't know if the kids are falling in love
- 3:38Speaker 1: with these drive buys, because you know, they get to
- 3:40Speaker 1: make their little signs, you know what I'm saying, They
- 3:42Speaker 1: get to pull up, hang out the window. They might
- 3:44Speaker 1: they might be enjoying this more than a being around
- 3:47Speaker 1: each other dancing and singing. Maybe that's just my wishful
- 3:50Speaker 1: thinking for the future. I don't think stuff that's that's
- 3:52Speaker 1: your wishful thinking. Yeah, that's what that is. All right. Well,
- 3:56Speaker 1: let's get the show cracking front page news. What we're

- 7:11Speaker 1: he goes on to talk about how Andre Horrell also

- 9:17Speaker 1: so we we actually spoke very very often. I actually
- 9:20Speaker 1: spoke to him Tuesday, you know, Um, He's just a
- 9:24Speaker 1: just a great great greade grade grade, great great man,
- 9:28Speaker 1: great man. And that was I mean, all all of

- 10:00Speaker 1: really the past year, I've learned the accepted just leaning
- 10:02Speaker 1: into the uncertainty of life, knowing that every day could
- 10:05Speaker 1: be your last. But I still don't understand why things
- 10:08Speaker 1: happened to certain people at certain moments, because like Andrea

- 16:03Speaker 1: of taking her life and his life, she would hospitalize
- 16:07Speaker 1: him and they will always release him back to her.
- 16:11Speaker 1: And then when it went to court, he he didn't
- 16:14Speaker 1: even have a trial. The judge says he had been
- 16:17Speaker 1: mentally ill for quite some time and that he was
- 16:21Speaker 1: deemed not guilty due to the reason of insanity and
- 16:24Speaker 1: a crazy thing about it. We still have things in
- 16:27Speaker 1: litigation with her life insurance, but he's on all of
- 16:30Speaker 1: her life insurance policies and he is not guilty due
- 16:35Speaker 1: to the reason of insanity. He's in a mental institution
- 16:38Speaker 1: for the rest of his life. But unfortunately, there's no
- 16:41Speaker 1: laws out there for the for the caretaker, you know
- 16:44Speaker 1: what I mean, you mean, for the can't take good
- 16:49Speaker 1: as far as like, what do you mean, my sister.
- 16:54Speaker 1: There should be laws for the custodian parent or the
- 16:58Speaker 1: person who's taking care of someone that's an adult, that
- 17:01Speaker 1: that has mental illness. There's nothing out there for that person,
- 17:06Speaker 1: like the hospitals will constantly release them back to your custody,
- 17:10Speaker 1: knowing that he had thought of killing you. Yeah, there
- 17:14Speaker 1: should be some type of orders of protection in place.
- 17:16Speaker 1: All Honestly, that brother, that brother should have been in
- 17:18Speaker 1: the mental facility a long time ago, a long time,
- 17:21Speaker 1: a diagnosis in twenty twelve. He took her life in
- 17:24Speaker 1: twenty seventeen, and they constantly kept releasing them to them
- 17:28Speaker 1: to her. And that's what I just wanted to get out.
- 17:30Speaker 1: If there's anyone out there with any kind of information
- 17:33Speaker 1: of how we can continue to fight this fight or
- 17:36Speaker 1: get a law changed out there, please get in touch
- 17:39Speaker 1: with me, because I want to take this all the
- 17:41Speaker 1: way up. I want to be able to have something

- 18:43Speaker 1: This is the rumor report with Angela Yee on the
- 18:46Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. So Takashi six nine went live for the
- 18:50Speaker 1: first time since he got out of prison, and he
- 18:53Speaker 1: broke all the records. He broke Tory Lanes's Instagram live record,
- 18:56Speaker 1: who had three hundred thousand. He had two million viewers
- 19:00Speaker 1: during his live. Now in addition to that, he also
- 19:03Speaker 1: put out a new song, Guba, and that song in
- 19:08Speaker 1: twenty four hours had forty three point five million views,
- 19:11Speaker 1: So he broke every record possible. He broke Eminem's record
- 19:15Speaker 1: in just twenty four hours for hip hop YouTube views. Now,
- 19:19Speaker 1: in addition to that, here's what he had to say
- 19:21Speaker 1: about snitching on his IG live. But where was the
- 19:24Speaker 1: loyalt when you were sleeping with my baby mother? Where
- 19:26Speaker 1: was the loyalt when you was caught on the white
- 19:28Speaker 1: tap trying to kill me? Who was the loyaltie when
- 19:29Speaker 1: you try to kidnap my mother? Where was the loyalty
- 19:32Speaker 1: when you were still the millions of dollars for me?
- 19:33Speaker 1: Where was that? So? Who broke it first? All right,
- 19:36Speaker 1: I'll get it. Don't fight fire fire, I'm sorry, But
- 19:39Speaker 1: what did I do on kidnap me? I'm supposed to
- 19:41Speaker 1: be loyal to that? No, you know what? You know
- 19:43Speaker 1: what it is, y'all don't want to accept the fact
- 19:46Speaker 1: that those are all true facts. Yeah, I heard that,
- 19:49Speaker 1: And you know, like I said, when I met the kid,
- 19:53Speaker 1: he's a good kid. But you talk about why you
- 19:55Speaker 1: snitched on those people, but you also got to talk
- 19:57Speaker 1: about the conversation of why you told on Cardi B
- 20:00Speaker 1: while you told on Jim Jones, Why you mentioned while
- 20:04Speaker 1: you put a hit out on somebody, like there's other reason,
- 20:06Speaker 1: it's not just it's not just somebody said something. And
- 20:09Speaker 1: then you said, now I'm not gonna go to jail
- 20:11Speaker 1: for them. You also opened up for so many other
- 20:13Speaker 1: people that had nothing to do with any of that. Yeah, man,
- 20:16Speaker 1: you know, and you and you use those people the
- 20:19Speaker 1: harm other people, like you just said, you use those
- 20:22Speaker 1: you know guys and security. You ordered hits on other guys.
- 20:25Speaker 1: You're not innocent at all. You know the lifestyle you
- 20:27Speaker 1: was leading, and when the lifestyle didn't benefit you anymore
- 20:29Speaker 1: and those wolves turned on you, you turned on the wolves.
- 20:32Speaker 1: Welcome to the streets now. Meek Mill went on Twitter
- 20:34Speaker 1: and said, I hope that rat going live to apologize
- 20:37Speaker 1: to the people he told on or the victim. He said,
- 20:40Speaker 1: y'all forgot that fast or rat killed Nipsey. He wasn't
- 20:42Speaker 1: supposed to be on the street. Sas the only thing
- 20:44Speaker 1: I'm gonna say, because he's dead, left his baby mom
- 20:47Speaker 1: and child like a coward as targets. And then he
- 20:50Speaker 1: also went on to say because he did just have
- 20:54Speaker 1: a you know, he had his child on his birthday
- 20:56Speaker 1: on Wednesday, And of course Dakashi had something to say
- 21:00Speaker 1: about that. Takashi went on social media and commented about
- 21:04Speaker 1: Meek Meil, you know, paying attention to him at this time.
- 21:06Speaker 1: He said, imagine having a newborn baby coming to the
- 21:09Speaker 1: world to be pressed about a Mexican with a rainbow hair. Well,
- 21:13Speaker 1: Miek Meil said, I'm sorry I lashed out. Sometimes when
- 21:15Speaker 1: I see people playing like that. Eloa, I've been locked
- 21:17Speaker 1: up too many times like an animal, as he said,
- 21:21Speaker 1: changed my pass code and don't give it to me
- 21:23Speaker 1: no more. And then he put some laughing emojis with that. Now,
- 21:26Speaker 1: in addition to that, there was some video that a
- 21:29Speaker 1: girl posted. I guess Takashi moved in next door to
- 21:33Speaker 1: her and she saw him outside taking pictures and she
- 21:36Speaker 1: posted this six nine is literally he moved into the
- 21:43Speaker 1: house behind me. He's taking pictures. Yeah, and there was
- 21:50Speaker 1: a whole lot of money talking. You know, I'm sure
- 21:53Speaker 1: the young man has money, but you ain't got real money.
- 21:56Speaker 1: If you got neighbors, bro, you're in witness protection. There's
- 21:59Speaker 1: no way in hell if when you's actually not though
- 22:01Speaker 1: he's not, well, that's that's even worse. Yeah, that's even worse.
- 22:05Speaker 1: Like you talk about money, you shouldn't have neighbors like
- 22:07Speaker 1: you shouldn't be on your porch and your neighbors be
- 22:08Speaker 1: able to take a video of you. And and I'm
- 22:11Speaker 1: just complain that I know my neighbors can't take pictures
- 22:13Speaker 1: of me. Look like it was a shared pool. To
- 22:16Speaker 1: the legs, you're live in a complex with the community pool.
- 22:19Speaker 1: Nothing wrong with that. It looks like he moved already,
- 22:21Speaker 1: so we don't know where he is now. But yeah,
- 22:24Speaker 1: that was very smart outside rainbow hair posing with money. Yeah,
- 22:27Speaker 1: you can't let the neighbors thousand on a chain and
- 22:31Speaker 1: you're in an area where people can come out to
- 22:33Speaker 1: the back porch, you're coming the pool and see you,
- 22:35Speaker 1: Like you have to be smarter than that as well.
- 22:37Speaker 1: I mean like he's not though, And that right there
- 22:39Speaker 1: is a prime example of why this isn't going to
- 22:41Speaker 1: end well. And this is why I don't even think
- 22:42Speaker 1: we should be entertaining any of this. I don't even
- 22:44Speaker 1: think we should be talking about this because energy, any
- 22:46Speaker 1: energy we give that young man, is only fueling his
- 22:50Speaker 1: untimely demise. Because let me tell you something about the universe.
- 22:52Speaker 1: When you bump your head in life, and the universe
- 22:55Speaker 1: teaches you a lesson from that head bump, and you
- 22:57Speaker 1: don't learn a lesson from that head bump, and you
- 22:59Speaker 1: go back to doing what caused you to bump your
- 23:00Speaker 1: head in the first place. You're not gonna get a
- 23:02Speaker 1: head bumped the next time. Next time, you will lose
- 23:04Speaker 1: your head all together. Watch all right, Well he did
- 23:08Speaker 1: break all kinds of records, So we're just letting you
- 23:10Speaker 1: know what's happening now, baby face. In the meantime, we're
- 23:13Speaker 1: supposed to do this a waiting to exhale Mother's Day Special,
- 23:16Speaker 1: but instead he said, due to the passing of a
- 23:19Speaker 1: very dear friend of mine, will have to postpone the
- 23:21Speaker 1: waiting to exhale Mother's Day Special, and instead he did
- 23:25Speaker 1: a tribute to Andre Horrell, who was very close to him.
- 23:29Speaker 1: He went on to share a song that he wrote
- 23:31Speaker 1: and dedicated to Andre Horrell. Here is that song. I
- 23:35Speaker 1: remember how you smile, I remember how you laugh, how
- 23:44Speaker 1: you always told you the truth and you never held
- 23:49Speaker 1: things bad. How you fought for excellence to be black
- 23:58Speaker 1: as we can be. Andrew, you knew who you were,
- 24:04Speaker 1: and I swear, if nothing else you talked me to
- 24:07Speaker 1: be me. Lord, have mercy, my baby face, got a
- 24:13Speaker 1: eulogy voice. I mean that whole song, is it just
- 24:16Speaker 1: it sounded like the end of the movie when they
- 24:19Speaker 1: putting up the pictures of the people who passed away,
- 24:22Speaker 1: like God, damn baby face, Lord have mercy all right. Well,
- 24:26Speaker 1: according to auto Hrrell's ex wife, she said that he
- 24:30Speaker 1: did die from heart failure and that he did have
- 24:33Speaker 1: a history of heart problems that led to this. So
- 24:36Speaker 1: apparently he was on a phone call the day before
- 24:39Speaker 1: he passed and the call just dropped, and according to
- 24:42Speaker 1: a source, they said the person didn't think anything of it.
- 24:44Speaker 1: After that, attempts to reach him all day by phone
- 24:46Speaker 1: were unsuccessful. That's when his cousin went by in the
- 24:50Speaker 1: morning and used a spare key and found that he
- 24:52Speaker 1: had passed. Yeah, and you know it's so interesting. Um,
- 24:56Speaker 1: you know, I saw Jesse Collins saying how he's hooked
- 25:00Speaker 1: to Andrea on Wednesday, and Andrew was adamant about talking
- 25:02Speaker 1: to one of the writers because he wanted to get
- 25:04Speaker 1: this this this story into the Uptown miniseries that they're doing,
- 25:09Speaker 1: and that he wanted to really land the ending. And
- 25:11Speaker 1: then I saw I was on Without Shopton on MSNBC
- 25:15Speaker 1: yesterday and he was talking about how they were on
- 25:16Speaker 1: this whole group call, you know, putting together these these
- 25:19Speaker 1: plans in regard to the election coming up in November.
- 25:22Speaker 1: And then you know, I'm looking at my phone on
- 25:24Speaker 1: Tuesday and he sent me this long, detailed plan about something,
- 25:28Speaker 1: and I'm just like, I want to do people know
- 25:31Speaker 1: when they're about to go, you know what I mean? Like,
- 25:34Speaker 1: that's it seems very odd that everybody had similar conversations
- 25:38Speaker 1: with him this week where he was like putting out
- 25:41Speaker 1: these detailed plans to people like it's it's I don't know,
- 25:45Speaker 1: It's all right now. Uh now, let's talk about this
- 25:49Speaker 1: scam that happened. And among the people's scam was Jennifer
- 25:52Speaker 1: Lewis from Blackish, a friend of ours two and she's
- 25:55Speaker 1: among four women who were kinds out of four hundred
- 25:58Speaker 1: thousand dollars in a romance scam. I believe she's spoken
- 26:01Speaker 1: on this before. But Antonio Marriott Wilson, also known as
- 26:04Speaker 1: doctor Tony Marriott and Bryce Carrington, he agreed to plead
- 26:08Speaker 1: guilty to one count of wire fraud after he got
- 26:11Speaker 1: that four hundred thousand dollars from these women. He previously
- 26:14Speaker 1: served a four year term in federal prison for wire
- 26:16Speaker 1: fraud and tax evasion back in two thousand and nine,
- 26:19Speaker 1: after pleading guilty. He met four women on dating apps
- 26:22Speaker 1: between May twenty fifteen and October twenty eighteen. He convinced
- 26:26Speaker 1: them to engage in romantic relationships with them, and then
- 26:29Speaker 1: once there, he proceeded to con all of them out
- 26:32Speaker 1: of three hundred and eighty seven thousand dollars cumulatively. So
- 26:35Speaker 1: Jennifer Lewis was among those people. She met him at
- 26:38Speaker 1: a gym where he worked as a manager. He would
- 26:40Speaker 1: use the money that he got from these women to
- 26:42Speaker 1: fund his lifestyle and then he was paying off all
- 26:44Speaker 1: of his debts and buying luxury items. And yeah, previously
- 26:48Speaker 1: he had done the same scheme. So now he's facing
- 26:50Speaker 1: a maximum sentence of twenty years in federal prison. They
- 26:53Speaker 1: have not yet set a date for his hearing. Now,
- 26:56Speaker 1: what was the time period that he got all his
- 26:58Speaker 1: money out of missus Jennifer Lewis, Queen Lewis, Because it
- 27:00Speaker 1: was like it was like four hundred thousand, right, four
- 27:03Speaker 1: women between four women, it was four hundred thousand cumulators. Oh,
- 27:07Speaker 1: I thought it was just Missus Lewis that eight from oh, okay, okay, okay, okay.
- 27:12Speaker 1: What was the time period though, between May twenty fifteen
- 27:15Speaker 1: and October twenty eighteen, so about three three years. That's
- 27:19Speaker 1: about one hundred grand a year. That ain't bad. I
- 27:21Speaker 1: was about I was okay. I want to say Dan,
- 27:24Speaker 1: he's pretty good. Scameal but three years that's about it, right?
- 27:27Speaker 1: All right? Well I'm Mandela Yee and that is your
- 27:29Speaker 1: rumor report. All right, thank you, miss ye. Now when
- 27:32Speaker 1: we come back, we got front page news what we're

- 28:18Speaker 1: fifty one, and he was known as one of the
- 28:22Speaker 1: architects of rock and roll. So rest in piece to
- 28:26Speaker 1: Little Richard. According to some of the all time greats,
- 28:29Speaker 1: they did say they learned a lot from him. Like
- 28:30Speaker 1: Davie Wonder. He said that when he was fifteen years
- 28:34Speaker 1: old and he was playing piano and doing all of that,
- 28:37Speaker 1: there was a mix of soul, gospel and blues that
- 28:40Speaker 1: captured the boisterous spirit of Little Richard, like Tutti Fruity Singer.
- 28:44Speaker 1: Also Mick Jagger from the Rolling Stones, the front man
- 28:47Speaker 1: from the Rolling Stones. He said he learned everything about
- 28:49Speaker 1: the art of the preen from the originator, a Little Richard.
- 28:53Speaker 1: And long before there were the lips like the good
- 28:56Speaker 1: Golly Miss Molly, Singer had perfected his pal But beyond that,

- 29:11Speaker 1: his vocalizations, holding his signature woo no doubt, putting more

- 35:54Speaker 1: But then Aaron went solo and Teddy wouldn't did his
- 35:56Speaker 1: own thing. You just let him go up. No, it wasn't.
- 35:59Speaker 1: It wasn't. It wasn't just letting me go. They wanted
- 36:01Speaker 1: to split up and do different things. Sometimes when you
- 36:04Speaker 1: have a lot of artists, you don't want to control
- 36:06Speaker 1: every part of them because they end up not really
- 36:08Speaker 1: wanting to work with you. You got a lot of them,
- 36:10Speaker 1: get some other money got you? How did you get
- 36:12Speaker 1: your start in the music? Yeah, I think we might
- 36:14Speaker 1: be speeding. We got to tell how did you get
- 36:17Speaker 1: your start in the music industry? I started off as
- 36:20Speaker 1: a rapper when I was fifteen years old, nineteen seventy five.
- 36:23Speaker 1: I went to Charles Avenue's High School. We were a
- 36:25Speaker 1: hollow group and my name was doctor Jackal. We weren't
- 36:28Speaker 1: doctor Jucklin, mister high right. We just sent the parties
- 36:31Speaker 1: and hallow us. I see those old pictures a classical,
- 36:36Speaker 1: but they are my Instagram. You just go check them out.
- 36:39Speaker 1: I remember any of those old boss Come on, man,
- 36:41Speaker 1: spit something. I ain't spending them right yere. When I
- 36:45Speaker 1: get that feeling you're beat on, I do what I do.
- 36:47Speaker 1: You know I ain't afraid of the mic. We know,
- 36:50Speaker 1: okay you didn't. But did you have a messed up contract?
- 36:53Speaker 1: Back then? Of course we're taking everything, were taking your children,
- 37:01Speaker 1: your trained pass everything we could take. But you know,
- 37:05Speaker 1: fortunately back then deals were like for twelve inches, they
- 37:08Speaker 1: only lasted a year. So if you didn't hit that summer,
- 37:11Speaker 1: you got dropped and you're free to go get another deal.
- 37:14Speaker 1: It was just a singles market. So by the time
- 37:16Speaker 1: it became album time, we were very well educated in
- 37:19Speaker 1: the business, so much so I decided to take a
- 37:22Speaker 1: backseat and do the business. Start Uptown Records. Tell us
- 37:27Speaker 1: about that. How did you find Uptown Records? How did
- 37:29Speaker 1: you get the funding and how did you find the
- 37:31Speaker 1: How did you learn the business? Though? Like the maker,
- 37:33Speaker 1: you say you want that's what you wanted to do.
- 37:35Speaker 1: I was always the manager of microp Seglement Side, so
- 37:37Speaker 1: I always dealt with Russell when he had Court the
- 37:39Speaker 1: Bow to produce records with the jerky managers in Cleveland.
- 37:43Speaker 1: I always had the road map how to do it.
- 37:46Speaker 1: It was just natural to me. Uptown You started Uptown.
- 37:48Speaker 1: I started Uptown really kind of by accident. I was
- 37:52Speaker 1: sitting in the office at Rush working with Ross heavy
- 37:55Speaker 1: D called me, want to speak to Russell Simmons got
- 37:58Speaker 1: blessed Dad and I said Russell was not here. He said,
- 38:01Speaker 1: what's your name? I said, my name is Andre Rob
- 38:03Speaker 1: He said, yo, you tea out? Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 38:07Speaker 1: I'm busy man, what's going on? He said nothing, I'm
- 38:09Speaker 1: gonna call you tomorrow. So he hung up right, got
- 38:13Speaker 1: his game together. The thing about Heavy, I don't know.
- 38:15Speaker 1: He was charming. Hey, what's happening baby, It's just me
- 38:18Speaker 1: have I should think going and you'd be relaxed, a
- 38:21Speaker 1: big fat cut he dude, you start relaxed. He was
- 38:24Speaker 1: the original Champago. Yeah, and he made you relax. I'm
- 38:28Speaker 1: all right, and you didn't want to be mean and
- 38:30Speaker 1: you wanted to take in what he said. And then
- 38:32Speaker 1: when he came down to the office and Russell staw
- 38:34Speaker 1: on Russell thay he was one of the fat boys,
- 38:36Speaker 1: I said, and that kind of put big men in style.
- 38:40Speaker 1: Absolutely a big man. I could dance like Heavy. Heavy
- 38:45Speaker 1: could dance, dance, he could do reggae, he could dance. Everything.
- 38:50Speaker 1: Was very talented. First artist, Heavy was my first artist
- 38:53Speaker 1: that worked out. And Heavy was a hit. Who came
- 38:56Speaker 1: after Heavy who I'll be sure you were the first
- 39:01Speaker 1: dude to give lights can people. I'll be sure Christopher
- 39:04Speaker 1: would him would have never been in the style if
- 39:07Speaker 1: it was you. They wasn't styled. They went out and
- 39:11Speaker 1: they was fighting with Jordan and Bobby Brown. I'll be sure.
- 39:14Speaker 1: With the last one who stood up with the Curls
- 39:17Speaker 1: and Christopher, obviously Christopher. I was so happy when Nedo
- 39:20Speaker 1: Brown stabbed him in the head. And lord, wait, let
- 39:24Speaker 1: me tell you the power of lights can dudes with
- 39:25Speaker 1: girls back then, I'll be sure. Came to my office,
- 39:28Speaker 1: he said, Drake, come downstairs. We went walking for about
- 39:32Speaker 1: part of a block. You're here, that'll be sure, that'll
- 39:35Speaker 1: be sure. We walk another quote block that's I'll be sure,
- 39:39Speaker 1: and girls start running after us. I never had an
- 39:42Speaker 1: artist where streaming girls like that, never with his day
- 39:46Speaker 1: chase you down the street girls in New York City
- 39:48Speaker 1: when you see that, right, So what happened happened with
- 39:51Speaker 1: like or would think they wouldn't. Joe was kind of tough,
- 39:57Speaker 1: looking like you just didn't want to run up on
- 40:01Speaker 1: Katie and diving on and see what's happening? Did you
- 40:04Speaker 1: know that when you signed Joe to See, because you
- 40:05Speaker 1: could just go from these I guess attractive lights kin
- 40:08Speaker 1: guys to these four dudes from North Carolina. Well, Joe
- 40:11Speaker 1: to See. They were playing music for one of my
- 40:13Speaker 1: and arts went to consint with me, so half was
- 40:16Speaker 1: having to meet with me and we kept hearing. So yeah,
- 40:19Speaker 1: having my bad. So we're listening to that. Who is
- 40:22Speaker 1: this we're just coming from? Then I heard come and
- 40:25Speaker 1: talk to me? That Me and have got up and
- 40:28Speaker 1: went in and opened the door and four little dudes
- 40:31Speaker 1: from North Carolina was sitting there, and we said, Yo,
- 40:34Speaker 1: did y'all make these records? Yep? I wrote them and
- 40:37Speaker 1: produced them. And that was DeVante Swain, and I said,
- 40:40Speaker 1: y'all ain't gonna home. Were signing y'all, y'all getting ready
- 40:43Speaker 1: to making record there You're gonna be on uptown Records.
- 40:45Speaker 1: That's what they told us. There was like we had
- 40:46Speaker 1: old records before we got there, Like I didn't believe them,
- 40:48Speaker 1: but yeah they did. Now what happened was the records
- 40:51Speaker 1: wasn't right at their first gorind because you know, you're
- 40:53Speaker 1: in North Carolina back in nineteen ninety one. It wasn't
- 40:56Speaker 1: like you was at HIT factory, so it wasn't mixed right,
- 41:00Speaker 1: was noisy? I put on that Johnny Gil record my mind,
- 41:03Speaker 1: and I remember sitting them down and saying, do you
- 41:05Speaker 1: see how this boy is saying put on that red dress?
- 41:08Speaker 1: Do you see red dress? Slip on them high heels
- 41:11Speaker 1: and she moving around the living room. Now, I play
- 41:13Speaker 1: your record, and every red was got to that cat
- 41:17Speaker 1: said do you see anybody? Or do you just hear
- 41:19Speaker 1: a noise? So they got so mad or frustrated. But
- 41:23Speaker 1: then I put out be Sure with him to produce,
- 41:26Speaker 1: so it was still their lyrics, still the music, but
- 41:29Speaker 1: I had more experience producer. He had worked with Pointsy,
- 41:32Speaker 1: so he was a really massiful producer. And that's how
- 41:35Speaker 1: we got that's first Joe to See album. And there
- 41:37Speaker 1: was a big fight over the first single too. Remember
- 41:40Speaker 1: the first single was gotta love it because it was
- 41:43Speaker 1: half the album was like more up Temple. The other
- 41:45Speaker 1: half was slow. That's right. So Puff and Joe to
- 41:48Speaker 1: See got together and this this is my policy. If
- 41:51Speaker 1: you feel strongly about something, you know yourself and you
- 41:55Speaker 1: know your fans better than I can, you just keep
- 41:57Speaker 1: arguing with me until you get your way, till I
- 41:59Speaker 1: see it your way. So they argued, argued, but I
- 42:03Speaker 1: gotta love and we know that wasn't it. Let's puffing
- 42:05Speaker 1: that video um dances. So then I said, let's put
- 42:12Speaker 1: out Forever my Lady, and we put out for my Lady.
- 42:16Speaker 1: It blasted off. I feel like all those we were off,
- 42:23Speaker 1: and then we hit you with the remix the hip
- 42:25Speaker 1: hop soul and then the ghost face and stopping. You know,
- 42:29Speaker 1: mister Dalvin did that Freaking You remix? Yeah, Freaking You
- 42:32Speaker 1: remix the second album. They come and talk to me,
- 42:36Speaker 1: remixed out and I see we're gonna talk all let's
- 42:38Speaker 1: talk about Jose and we're not gonna play one record.
- 42:40Speaker 1: Look at all that we're gonna mix this morning? What okay? Alright, alright, alright,
- 42:50Speaker 1: guy Heavy d Joe to see Christoph Williams. Sure, Mary
- 42:54Speaker 1: jim Blige, he signed so many artists when we come back,
- 42:56Speaker 1: Let's talk about Mary a little bit. I don't go anywhere.
- 42:59Speaker 1: Andre Horrell was in the building. It's a breakfast morning.
- 43:02Speaker 1: Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlemagne the guy. We
- 43:05Speaker 1: all the breakfast club. We have Andre Horrell in the building.
- 43:08Speaker 1: Throw back Thursday, found of Uptown Records. Now, how did
- 43:12Speaker 1: you get up with Mary j Blige? So? I got
- 43:14Speaker 1: with Mary through her managers. Mary stepfather game in his tape.
- 43:19Speaker 1: So they came and they played me the tape. It
- 43:22Speaker 1: was Shaka Kan Sweet Thing. So she played sweet Thing.
- 43:26Speaker 1: I'm gonna love you anyway, you know how she kills it.
- 43:29Speaker 1: So I'm listening to that. I'm like, it felt like
- 43:32Speaker 1: a Picasso Paynton, the way her voice was going through
- 43:35Speaker 1: the canvas, like all that pain, all our heart. I
- 43:38Speaker 1: went out to Snowbound Projects right to meet up and
- 43:41Speaker 1: a mother and everything. And so when I came up there,
- 43:43Speaker 1: she was looking at me, just smiling, and she was shy,
- 43:46Speaker 1: and I said, your voice is serious. I said, one
- 43:49Speaker 1: day you're gonna sing for rock and roll legends, kings
- 43:52Speaker 1: and queens. And she just giggled like a seventeen year old.
- 43:56Speaker 1: And look what happened. Yeah, step Game the Queen and
- 43:58Speaker 1: hip hop soul. Yeah, almost twenty years later, and then
- 44:02Speaker 1: you got you got soul for real. You had yeah
- 44:05Speaker 1: heavy father MC. So have you found so he had
- 44:08Speaker 1: the Lost Boys too? Right? Yeah, we had the Lost
- 44:10Speaker 1: Boys too. Oh. At one point we had nine records
- 44:15Speaker 1: on the radio here in New York. I never and
- 44:18Speaker 1: you know what, I don't know if because of the
- 44:20Speaker 1: time period, but I've never heard anybody say Andre Herrel
- 44:22Speaker 1: didn't treat me fairly. That's nice. I mean, I don't know. Yeah,
- 44:27Speaker 1: maybe I didn't hear it. No, you always hear stories
- 44:30Speaker 1: trying to be nice. But what I try to do
- 44:32Speaker 1: I think more importantly is I try to look at
- 44:34Speaker 1: an artist and see them for who they want to be,
- 44:38Speaker 1: and then I try to tell them, these are the
- 44:40Speaker 1: clearest things that will make you big and we should
- 44:42Speaker 1: move toward that. And fortunately my relationship with such a
- 44:47Speaker 1: trusting relationship with them. They would try some things that
- 44:49Speaker 1: would want to do, and they worked out what was
- 44:51Speaker 1: your biggest mistake running up tail records or all that
- 44:54Speaker 1: you passed, or I got everybody I want it. If
- 44:57Speaker 1: I wanted it, it meant everybody el I just wanted it.
- 45:00Speaker 1: Like before I wanted, they didn't. They wasn't sure. But
- 45:03Speaker 1: once I wanted, everybody was sure. So then I got
- 45:07Speaker 1: so many records on the radio. I'm like, you're gonna
- 45:09Speaker 1: go with them, and you're gonna go with me. Back then,
- 45:11Speaker 1: if they was going with me, because the artists were happy,
- 45:14Speaker 1: they want tour together. We had a sound. Matter of fact,
- 45:17Speaker 1: we had a culture. We would get old fabulous, right.
- 45:20Speaker 1: We drank up all the champagne, danced at all the parties,
- 45:24Speaker 1: and that's what they was looking at. They was looking
- 45:26Speaker 1: at that lifestyle from rags to richards, going from the
- 45:29Speaker 1: bottom to the top. That get old fabulous. But we
- 45:32Speaker 1: always get the infamous story about how did he worked
- 45:34Speaker 1: for you? And he was an intern and he would
- 45:36Speaker 1: ride the train and hide in the bathroom. So because
- 45:38Speaker 1: he was in college, Howard just to come and work
- 45:40Speaker 1: at uptown. And then they said you ended up firing him.
- 45:44Speaker 1: I can see why you fire No, no, no, so
- 45:46Speaker 1: this so much, this so much, y'all had no idea
- 45:50Speaker 1: further a Buff was having the time of his life. Nobody, nobody,
- 45:57Speaker 1: nobody loved get old Fabulous more than him. Yeah. Puff
- 46:01Speaker 1: came in the door with two earrings on. I had
- 46:04Speaker 1: never seen that. He came in with boots and and
- 46:08Speaker 1: blazes and hoodies. I was looking at him like, okay,
- 46:11Speaker 1: all right, all right, all right, I think that works.
- 46:13Speaker 1: We dressed Joe to see like that, and we did.
- 46:16Speaker 1: And the rerec Colly was saying, put him in suits,
- 46:17Speaker 1: put him in suits, and Puff said, I'm about to
- 46:19Speaker 1: put him in suits. Tid like you're gonna dress him
- 46:22Speaker 1: how you dressed Puff? And I would empower my young
- 46:26Speaker 1: people to let them know the things that they did
- 46:28Speaker 1: right and that they had a lifestyle that other people
- 46:30Speaker 1: would like. And for Puff, he really had the close
- 46:34Speaker 1: opportuity because He really worked closely with me. Puff used
- 46:37Speaker 1: to watch me like television on the phone. I used
- 46:39Speaker 1: to stop in the middle of Puff, don't you gotta
- 46:42Speaker 1: go to work? So he was really a student of
- 46:46Speaker 1: the game and he worked really, really, really hard. How
- 46:50Speaker 1: much did Puff contribute to uptime because it seems like
- 46:52Speaker 1: it's a lot of CREDITI up time because he's a
- 46:54Speaker 1: lot of credit for Joe to Seeing Mary Ja. He
- 46:56Speaker 1: did contribute a lot, but these are the main things
- 46:58Speaker 1: he contribute. I saw Mary J. Blies, I signed jod
- 47:01Speaker 1: to cy, but Puff worked on Joe to See. But
- 47:04Speaker 1: I'll be shure produced them all right. What Puff claimed
- 47:08Speaker 1: the fame is musically was his construction in fashion of
- 47:13Speaker 1: Mary J. Blige. That's him, he like, I signed to her,
- 47:17Speaker 1: but Puff put that beat up under her and changed
- 47:20Speaker 1: the game him. Eddie Aff Darnell Jones came and they
- 47:26Speaker 1: laid down that those sad kind of chords, and Mary
- 47:29Speaker 1: was seeing like projects sunshine over them like love without
- 47:32Speaker 1: a limit. He has made you feel like it's good
- 47:36Speaker 1: in the hood. Let's drop the top and let's pull
- 47:37Speaker 1: up some new sneakers. Absolutely, so we love Mary, Like
- 47:42Speaker 1: in my office, if Mary had a performance everybody would
- 47:46Speaker 1: sit there and debate, and I wasn't the leader. I
- 47:49Speaker 1: wasn't the boss. When he came the artist's best argument wins.
- 47:53Speaker 1: I'm listening to see you back up what you're gonna say.
- 47:56Speaker 1: So they would say Mary can't wear that, that's not
- 47:58Speaker 1: what her audience wants, and I'll be all right, all right,
- 48:02Speaker 1: And I felt like taking care of Mary and help
- 48:05Speaker 1: him lift her up and make her queen. We were
- 48:08Speaker 1: lifting up girls from single households, girls from in Paris neighborhoods.
- 48:13Speaker 1: So so Mary was and is a symbol of what
- 48:17Speaker 1: you can really do. That's what they said. In order
- 48:19Speaker 1: for you to ride, you gotta lift up others. Yes,
- 48:21Speaker 1: I think she's the best example of that, right, So didn't.
- 48:24Speaker 1: Did he bring Biggie to Uptown at one point? Yes,
- 48:26Speaker 1: but but he bought He bought Biggie to Uptown through
- 48:30Speaker 1: bad Boy, like we started bad Boy at Uptown, And
- 48:33Speaker 1: so Puff wanted to sign Biggie. His label was new,
- 48:36Speaker 1: he didn't have any artists. He just needed me to
- 48:39Speaker 1: assure Biggie. Yes, yes, yes, I gave bad Boy records.
- 48:46Speaker 1: He had already signed Total Yeah, already signed Craig mac
- 48:50Speaker 1: and Biggie and Biggie had our part in Bulls that
- 48:53Speaker 1: came out on Uptown Records, and we had a dinner.
- 48:56Speaker 1: I sat down Biggie and assured him that Puff had
- 49:00Speaker 1: all my confidence and all my resources and that he
- 49:03Speaker 1: would be treated no different than any other artists we got.
- 49:06Speaker 1: We don't sign a lot of artists, and if we
- 49:08Speaker 1: signed you, we're gonna figure you out and make you
- 49:10Speaker 1: the biggest star that we can make you. And that's
- 49:13Speaker 1: all he needed to hear. And then Puff did his thing.
- 49:17Speaker 1: Did you believe in Big when you first saw I
- 49:18Speaker 1: believed him Puff? But after I started hearing that music, well,
- 49:25Speaker 1: I signed black and ugly as ever. Yeah, Big, he's
- 49:28Speaker 1: my favorite rapper. He's like the mom and get a
- 49:30Speaker 1: hip hop. So what was the down for if there
- 49:32Speaker 1: was a dawn full of Uptail records? Why why the
- 49:34Speaker 1: Uptail stopped producing all those records? No, no, no, no,
- 49:41Speaker 1: they just came with an offer from Motown up so
- 49:44Speaker 1: ridiculous at the time. I had to take a look
- 49:46Speaker 1: at it. And then Heavy came on. He would be
- 49:49Speaker 1: the president. But artists sometimes can have a hard time
- 49:54Speaker 1: managing artists because artists, in order to be great, they
- 49:58Speaker 1: need to spend a lot of time thinking about himselves.
- 50:00Speaker 1: So as the president of the label, you have to
- 50:03Speaker 1: give yourself to others and give yourselves to helping other
- 50:06Speaker 1: people's dreams. So that's a different headspace. But that's really
- 50:11Speaker 1: the only reason because their kidding went on because they
- 50:13Speaker 1: had all the town to people. It was amount of
- 50:16Speaker 1: being able to manage everybody's expectations, ego and motivate them.
- 50:20Speaker 1: So you left Uptown to go to Motown, yep, and
- 50:23Speaker 1: and and left the jail open and just the artists
- 50:26Speaker 1: running out side insany sild for a minute, do you
- 50:30Speaker 1: know what Mary j. Blige made it through. Blige made
- 50:35Speaker 1: it through. Jould have made it through too if it
- 50:37Speaker 1: wasn't for like their personal issues. You're right, you're right.
- 50:40Speaker 1: We got more with Andre Horrell when we come back.
- 50:42Speaker 1: This is the first interview he did with us when
- 50:45Speaker 1: he came through here. He's been up here several times
- 50:47Speaker 1: to talk about so many different things, from Uptown Records
- 50:50Speaker 1: to Revolt Music Conference to everything that he's working on.
- 50:54Speaker 1: So we'll get that back on when we come back,
- 50:56Speaker 1: and let's get into an Uptown Records mini mix. I mean,
- 50:59Speaker 1: he's broke in so many artists, but we don't have
- 51:02Speaker 1: that much time. I mean, if you want to talk
- 51:03Speaker 1: about it, we have Lost Boys, Mary J. Blige, Guy,
- 51:07Speaker 1: I'll be sure, Christopher Williams, Joe to See, just to
- 51:10Speaker 1: name a few, and we're gonna get that on right now.
- 51:12Speaker 1: It was the Breakfast Club Good Morning. That was an
- 51:15Speaker 1: Uptown Records mini mix. Like I said, we couldn't play
- 51:18Speaker 1: all the artists. I mean, when you think about it,
- 51:20Speaker 1: Mary J. Blige, Heavy D and the Boys Guy, Christopher Williams,
- 51:24Speaker 1: I'll be sure money for the lost Joe to See.
- 51:27Speaker 1: So that was a little bit MC follow them see.
- 51:32Speaker 1: Of course, So let's get back into our interview with
- 51:34Speaker 1: Andre Horrels the Breakfast Club Good Morning Morning. Everybody is
- 51:37Speaker 1: DJ Envy angela Ye, Charlemagne the guy we are the
- 51:40Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. Andre Horrell's in the building out Charlemagne. Now
- 51:44Speaker 1: you work for a vote now, which is interesting because
- 51:46Speaker 1: you had to fire Diddy. But you have to fire
- 51:48Speaker 1: Diddy though. You gotta understand. When Puff worked for me,
- 51:52Speaker 1: Puff was like he was my protege, so you know,
- 51:55Speaker 1: he basically he got to do all the things I did,
- 51:58Speaker 1: and so anytime somebody else would tell him though it
- 52:02Speaker 1: was a problem. So I had New York on to
- 52:04Speaker 1: cover up. So I run over there with Dick Wolf
- 52:06Speaker 1: trying to work on this show. Yeah, so was the
- 52:17Speaker 1: music super okay, So right, we're gonna come. Puff is
- 52:22Speaker 1: walking around the office without a shirt or you know,
- 52:25Speaker 1: just really living out the video in the old bill. Yeah.
- 52:28Speaker 1: So then one day we sat down, we had a
- 52:31Speaker 1: conversation with the general manager and Puff said, Buff said,
- 52:35Speaker 1: straight up, I don't work for him. I work for you, Drake.
- 52:39Speaker 1: And I was like, oh my god. I mean this episode, everything,
- 52:46Speaker 1: everything that happened, now none of y'all gonna be able
- 52:48Speaker 1: to handle it because gonna be on me. And I
- 52:51Speaker 1: was feeling I wanted to grow Puff into his own
- 52:54Speaker 1: boot labor because we had given him Bad Boy, but
- 52:57Speaker 1: he needed his own space and I couldn't get MC
- 53:00Speaker 1: to give me the space. So when he got fired,
- 53:02Speaker 1: he was on payroll the whole time, in his artists
- 53:07Speaker 1: on payroll the whole time. Oh and when he got
- 53:10Speaker 1: his deal, I sat there and helped him negotiate and
- 53:13Speaker 1: pick the best deal. So I let him go to
- 53:17Speaker 1: make him rich. That was the best thing you probably have.
- 53:20Speaker 1: We want to be fighting. I'm gonna have to spend
- 53:22Speaker 1: all my time watching And I was growing doing so
- 53:26Speaker 1: many things. And it's not like I didn't enjoy watching Puff,
- 53:30Speaker 1: but if I couldn't be there to watch him do
- 53:32Speaker 1: his thing, but buffer come to my office play his
- 53:35Speaker 1: records that he just makes. He would do a hot dance,
- 53:38Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. Like every Monday he would
- 53:40Speaker 1: come into my office, and Monday morning at nine o'clock,
- 53:43Speaker 1: you had to be at my staff meeting. If you
- 53:45Speaker 1: missed the staff meeting, you missed the opportunity to chime
- 53:49Speaker 1: in on the moves that the artists are gonna make.
- 53:51Speaker 1: And we had so many artists. Those a lot of
- 53:53Speaker 1: sexy moves. So if you're twenty six, twenty seven, you
- 53:56Speaker 1: want you want to be involved in that because you
- 53:58Speaker 1: might want to make a move. You want to have
- 54:00Speaker 1: your hand on that, because this thing is moving. So
- 54:04Speaker 1: I remember I was making a movie. It was strictly business,
- 54:08Speaker 1: and Puff got a part in it. Said Mike, coming,
- 54:11Speaker 1: I let you be stars. Puffs taking audition. He got
- 54:14Speaker 1: a parting. So so wait, we're sitting there having a
- 54:19Speaker 1: regular meeting. Phone rings, it's my producer on the other line.
- 54:23Speaker 1: He said, Yo, we got a problem out here. I said, what,
- 54:26Speaker 1: Puff just punched one of the gaffers in the faith,
- 54:29Speaker 1: I said, what, Buff just punched the gaffers to face?
- 54:35Speaker 1: Buff of like Dennis the minutes back then, He's changed,

- 54:52Speaker 1: over the speaking phone, trying to be at the meeting.
- 54:55Speaker 1: That like that serious, dedicated he That was a very,
- 55:00Speaker 1: very enjoyable time. And I really enjoy working with Pop
- 55:03Speaker 1: because me and Puff are able together to take this
- 55:06Speaker 1: whole black thing to a pop international level. There you go.
- 55:10Speaker 1: All right. That was our interview with Andre Horrell. Rest

- 55:58Speaker 1: way it needs to. All right, well, we got rumors
- 56:00Speaker 1: on the way, so don't move. It's the Breakfast Club.
- 56:02Speaker 1: Good morning, listen. It's just report. It's a rule report.
- 56:12Speaker 1: So over the weekend, as we were watching this versus
- 56:15Speaker 1: battle that was highly anticipated, the numbers over six hundred
- 56:20Speaker 1: thousand people watch Erica bad doing Jill Scott on Saturday Night.
- 56:25Speaker 1: I was one of those people and one of the
- 56:28Speaker 1: first stories they started off with. And we talked about
- 56:30Speaker 1: this with Jill Scott when she was on The Breakfast
- 56:32Speaker 1: Club is the song you Got Me? Because Jill Scott
- 56:34Speaker 1: actually wrote that while Ericabadu was featured on that root song.
- 56:37Speaker 1: And here's what was said about it. The Roots gave
- 56:40Speaker 1: me my first opportunity to write anything ever. It's the
- 56:44Speaker 1: first song I ever wrote, and for you, Queen wadud
- 56:49Speaker 1: to sing words that I wrote, and I don't. I
- 56:51Speaker 1: don't think you've ever done that again, like everything else
- 56:54Speaker 1: you've written yourself. I'm so honored. I'm going to play
- 56:57Speaker 1: the exact same song Babies. Yes. So they both got
- 57:13Speaker 1: to me, and that's how they started off the battle.
- 57:16Speaker 1: It was over seven hundred thousand people. I don't it
- 57:18Speaker 1: got into like seven in change, so I think seven
- 57:20Speaker 1: twenty seven thirty. It was over seven hundred thousand on. Yes, yea.
- 57:23Speaker 1: It started a little late too. I was like, what's
- 57:26Speaker 1: going on? Everything was, Everything was pretty smooth. I think
- 57:30Speaker 1: at one point Erica baddu her battery died and then
- 57:33Speaker 1: she had to jump back on. And that was when
- 57:35Speaker 1: Jill Scott was playing Tyrone for her so man Tyrone
- 57:39Speaker 1: and getting a bad rap for a long time bro
- 57:42Speaker 1: like Tyrone. All of these years have been catching slander.
- 57:44Speaker 1: They've been calling people you old Tyrone, asked Negro. All
- 57:47Speaker 1: Tyrone was was the friend of an f boy. Tyrone
- 57:51Speaker 1: was a good friend. Man was driving. I thought that
- 57:55Speaker 1: was very clear from the song. And I thought people
- 57:57Speaker 1: were just they wos say you better all Tyrone and
- 58:00Speaker 1: tell him help you get your stuff. That's what I
- 58:04Speaker 1: never thought about it until Saturday night when I was
- 58:06Speaker 1: watching the battle, and then everybody started tweeting all of
- 58:08Speaker 1: this Tyrone slander, and I'm like, wait a minute, all
- 58:11Speaker 1: Tyrone was doing was being a good friend. And ain't
- 58:13Speaker 1: his fault. You don't only that man knew without a call.
- 58:16Speaker 1: And why didn't Erica ever name that brother she named Tyrone,
- 58:20Speaker 1: She named Jim, James and Paul, but never names that
- 58:23Speaker 1: boy she was talking about. I thought people were always
- 58:26Speaker 1: would say when you got mad at to man, you
- 58:27Speaker 1: bet you better call Tyrone and tell him come on,
- 58:30Speaker 1: come help you get your stuff. So it's weird that
- 58:33Speaker 1: people thought that that was a vibe on Saturday night.
- 58:37Speaker 1: And that title playlist that Erica bout dude, Jill's got
- 58:40Speaker 1: title playlist is so hard. That is absolutely gonna be
- 58:42Speaker 1: the soundtrack of my house for a long time. We
- 58:44Speaker 1: had the sage burning, We had to candles lit. Oh man,
- 58:49Speaker 1: we had we got these dip tea candles my wife got. Man,
- 58:52Speaker 1: they smell so good instead of vibe. Oh yeah, I
- 58:54Speaker 1: have like five of those in here and they're beloved too. Yes,
- 58:58Speaker 1: all right, all right. Now. In addition to that, we're
- 59:01Speaker 1: getting ready for the next versus battle and guess who
- 59:04Speaker 1: it's gonna be. Listen to Timberland and Swiss Beats talk
- 59:06Speaker 1: about it. You want me tell them? Who want the smoke?
- 59:08Speaker 1: Das Nellie won't the smoke? Tell them? Okay, come on,
- 59:13Speaker 1: come on, Nellie won't the smoke with Ludacris. Nellie won't
- 59:17Speaker 1: the smoke? Attention, attention, Nellie won't the smoke? Nellie and Ludacris.
- 59:22Speaker 1: A lot of people have been calling for this one. Well,
- 59:24Speaker 1: when Nellie called into the Breakfast Club to talk about
- 59:28Speaker 1: you know, the air Force force, I bought that up.
- 59:31Speaker 1: You know, Nelly versus Luta. I think that's a damn
- 59:34Speaker 1: good battle. I think that's gonna be great. I can't
- 59:36Speaker 1: wait to see that. That's I think the problem people
- 59:39Speaker 1: it's ready for that. The problem people have with these
- 59:42Speaker 1: verses is that when they think of Nellie Louta, they
- 59:44Speaker 1: automatically think lyricism. Right, this ain't about lyrics, This is
- 59:47Speaker 1: about songs, correct, I mean records. So Nellie had big records,
- 59:51Speaker 1: Luda had big records. That is gonna be a fun,
- 59:54Speaker 1: entertaining battle next Saturday. I can't wait for that. I know.
- 59:57Speaker 1: Personality wise, they both are gonna have a lot to say,
- 1:00:00Speaker 1: so that should be interesting. Now here's another possible versus battle.
- 1:00:05Speaker 1: Here's John Legend. He was talking to Nick Cannon on
- 1:00:07Speaker 1: who he could potentially battle, and here's what he said.
- 1:00:10Speaker 1: I think that probably the best thing. And honestly, I
- 1:00:13Speaker 1: think we would do it if we did it like
- 1:00:15Speaker 1: a dueling piano Yeah, no, Yo, that'd be crazy. Yeah,
- 1:00:18Speaker 1: I think we will. But I what I do love
- 1:00:21Speaker 1: about the way it's been going so far is we're
- 1:00:23Speaker 1: seeing producers and writers more than just artists. Because the
- 1:00:28Speaker 1: producers and writers, what's so cool about it is you
- 1:00:31Speaker 1: didn't maybe know that they produced this song and you're
- 1:00:34Speaker 1: hearing these stories and stuff. Yeah. So John Legend versus
- 1:00:38Speaker 1: Alicia Keys, that might have to do it. She gotta
- 1:00:40Speaker 1: do it, he called her out. She got to do it.
- 1:00:42Speaker 1: That's on some piano battle. Who that That's gonna be
- 1:00:44Speaker 1: a great one if they got they gotta do that
- 1:00:47Speaker 1: during the week though, that's not a weekend one. Yes
- 1:00:49Speaker 1: it is. That's not. That's not a Saturday night. It's not.
- 1:00:55Speaker 1: That's a Sunday afternoon. No, r no Thursday. That's that's
- 1:01:03Speaker 1: a nice date night one too, though. Gonna have, They're
- 1:01:07Speaker 1: gonna have the pianos going, got some, you have many up,
- 1:01:11Speaker 1: You got a couple of up tempo joints. Yes, he
- 1:01:13Speaker 1: does leash keys, Yeah, I got that legend. Got a
- 1:01:19Speaker 1: lot of great um also a lot of great appearances
- 1:01:23Speaker 1: on other people's songs too, though he does black my
- 1:01:26Speaker 1: Money on that one. I think a battle well, well, Luda,
- 1:01:31Speaker 1: Chris Nelli? Who went in that one? Luda, Chris Nelli?
- 1:01:33Speaker 1: Who you got that went into it? That One's not
- 1:01:37Speaker 1: as easy as people think it is. I'm telling you,
- 1:01:40Speaker 1: I don't know, man, I'm I'm I'm gonna say slight
- 1:01:43Speaker 1: edge to Luda only because I think Luda can take
- 1:01:47Speaker 1: Nelly in those later rounds with with with with bigger records,
- 1:01:53Speaker 1: big red. I gotta go through their catalogs. I gotta
- 1:01:57Speaker 1: sit down and go through it all. Right now, I
- 1:01:59Speaker 1: want to ask y'all. I'm just gonna say, because when
- 1:02:02Speaker 1: Nellie started doing those country songs, those are good records.
- 1:02:05Speaker 1: But I just will go don't know how he will
- 1:02:07Speaker 1: go over on a Saturday night on on Instagram Compared
- 1:02:10Speaker 1: to some of the stuff I know Luda can play.
- 1:02:11Speaker 1: He can't do those cosay now, While we're all quarantine.
- 1:02:14Speaker 1: Let's talk about some issues you guys might be having.
- 1:02:17Speaker 1: Because Young Thug was very honest about having some dirty
- 1:02:21Speaker 1: penis issues. So here's what he had to say on
- 1:02:23Speaker 1: his Instagram story. I take a bad every day. I

- 1:03:09Speaker 1: just really wakes up and yeah, you need to go
- 1:03:13Speaker 1: to the doctor. Brother. If I'm a woman who asked
- 1:03:15Speaker 1: sex with young thug, and I've had any bacterial infections,

- 1:06:26Speaker 1: in the Brunswick DA's office that Greg McMichael worked in
- 1:06:30Speaker 1: as an investigator and later retired from. Barnehill's letter to
- 1:06:33Speaker 1: Glenn County Police is getting national attention because it justifies
- 1:06:37Speaker 1: the deadly shooting of the black jogger by two white men.
- 1:06:41Speaker 1: The longtime prosecutor wrote, we do not see grounds for
- 1:06:44Speaker 1: an arrest of any of the three parties. It goes
- 1:06:47Speaker 1: on to say Travis McMichael, his father, Greg McMichael, and
- 1:06:51Speaker 1: the man who he says shot the video, Brian Williams,
- 1:06:54Speaker 1: were following in quote hot pursuit a burglary suspect with
- 1:06:59Speaker 1: solid first hand probable cause. DA Barnhill writes that the
- 1:07:02Speaker 1: video in real time shows Aubrey attacks Travis McMichael, but
- 1:07:07Speaker 1: the former federal prosecutor believes civil rights violations likely occurred.
- 1:07:13Speaker 1: First of all, the fact that you recuse yourself from
- 1:07:16Speaker 1: this case because you have a son who works in
- 1:07:18Speaker 1: the DA's office with that murderer Gregory McMichael used to work,
- 1:07:22Speaker 1: lets us know you're already biased. So being that you're biased,
- 1:07:25Speaker 1: nobody wants to hear your little letter to the police
- 1:07:28Speaker 1: explaining why those devils should not be charged. Okay, we
- 1:07:31Speaker 1: know why you think they shouldn't be charged, because one,
- 1:07:34Speaker 1: you're protecting one of your own. In two, anytime a
- 1:07:37Speaker 1: white man, a domestic terrorist, a member of Vanilla ISIS
- 1:07:40Speaker 1: kills a black man in America is justifiable in your eyes. Furthermore,
- 1:07:44Speaker 1: if you're going to recuse yourself from the situation, to
- 1:07:47Speaker 1: recuse yourself from the situation altogether. Okay. The definition of
- 1:07:50Speaker 1: recuse is excuse oneself from a case because of a
- 1:07:54Speaker 1: potential conflict of interest, our lack of impartiality. Therefore, his
- 1:08:00Speaker 1: letter with his five points regarding the case should be disregarded. Okay.
- 1:08:04Speaker 1: If you know you have a complicate interest, and everyone
- 1:08:07Speaker 1: else knows you have a complicate interest, then take that
- 1:08:09Speaker 1: biased ass letter you wrote the police and wipe your
- 1:08:12Speaker 1: ass with it. Okay. How can I, as a black
- 1:08:15Speaker 1: person in America ever have faith in a justice system
- 1:08:19Speaker 1: like this? See this is why I say every black
- 1:08:21Speaker 1: person in America needs to go out and purchase a
- 1:08:23Speaker 1: legal firearm. Go to the range, learn how to use it,
- 1:08:27Speaker 1: learn the laws of your state to see where you
- 1:08:29Speaker 1: can carry it, because you have to protect yourself because
- 1:08:32Speaker 1: there is no laws in place to protect us. Okay.
- 1:08:35Speaker 1: The Second Amendment to right to bear arms is your
- 1:08:38Speaker 1: constitutional right, black man. It's your constitutional right, black woman. Okay.
- 1:08:42Speaker 1: It is your constitutional right to possess a legal firearm,
- 1:08:45Speaker 1: and you can use that firearm for traditionally lawful purposes
- 1:08:49Speaker 1: such as self defense within the home and outside the home,
- 1:08:52Speaker 1: depending on your state. I to be Welles once said,
- 1:08:57Speaker 1: a Winchester rifle should have a place of honor and
- 1:08:59Speaker 1: every black home. And it should be used for that
- 1:09:01Speaker 1: protection which the law refuses to give. I repeat, and
- 1:09:05Speaker 1: it should be used for that protection which the law
- 1:09:08Speaker 1: refuses to give. Okay, replacement Winchester rifle with any gun
- 1:09:12Speaker 1: in your choice, and let that quote sink into your heart. Okay.
- 1:09:15Speaker 1: And I hear y'all Black people, you know, I hear
- 1:09:18Speaker 1: y'all saying our constitution, all right, don't respected our constitutional rights?
- 1:09:21Speaker 1: Not respected. If a mad had a gun and shot back,
- 1:09:24Speaker 1: he would be in jail right now, or they would
- 1:09:26Speaker 1: be justifying his murder because he had a gun. Let
- 1:09:28Speaker 1: me tell you, pessimistic punk something. Y'all better stop worrying
- 1:09:32Speaker 1: about what your pressure thinks to you. Okay. That's number one,
- 1:09:35Speaker 1: all right. Number two, go by a legal firearm because
- 1:09:38Speaker 1: it is your constitutional right and you must protect yourself
- 1:09:41Speaker 1: from these kinds of threats. Okay. And number three, I
- 1:09:44Speaker 1: would rather a mad or any brother or a sister
- 1:09:46Speaker 1: who finds themselves in a situation like a mod founds himself,
- 1:09:49Speaker 1: and I would much rather than be in jail fighting
- 1:09:52Speaker 1: for their freedom because they shot back at some domestic
- 1:09:55Speaker 1: terrorists trying to take their life, then have their family
- 1:09:58Speaker 1: crying over their casket at funeral. Okay, you can't fight
- 1:10:01Speaker 1: these cases when you're dead, all right. I would much
- 1:10:04Speaker 1: rather be judged by twelve than carried by six. And
- 1:10:06Speaker 1: not only is me owning a legal fire on my
- 1:10:10Speaker 1: constitutional right when you're a black person in America, owning
- 1:10:14Speaker 1: a legal firearm is a form of self care, because
- 1:10:17Speaker 1: we need to care for self at times like this,
- 1:10:21Speaker 1: because this wicked American judicial system clearly doesn't care about us.
- 1:10:25Speaker 1: Please give George Barnhill the biggest he hall. Oh, I'm
- 1:10:32Speaker 1: tripping a matter of fact, like Kathy Griffin. Give George
- 1:10:35Speaker 1: barne Hill the biggest he are. Please give this giant
- 1:10:37Speaker 1: Jaral male the biggest hea hall. All right, Well, thank
- 1:10:43Speaker 1: you for that. Do key of the day. Yes, did
- 1:10:47Speaker 1: y'all run with Maud over the weekend? Till I did
- 1:10:49Speaker 1: that this weekend? No? I did not. I don't. I
- 1:10:53Speaker 1: really don't understand the point of that, to be honest
- 1:10:56Speaker 1: with you. I was just showing support for his family.
- 1:10:59Speaker 1: You know, he was running, and he's a runner, so
- 1:11:01Speaker 1: a lot of people went out just to do that run,
- 1:11:03Speaker 1: just to honor him. Well, I'm gonna do it. Run
- 1:11:05Speaker 1: for AMD and I want all black people and black
- 1:11:09Speaker 1: black people to run to the gun store and purchase
- 1:11:11Speaker 1: a legal firearm. Okay, that's what I would like to do.
- 1:11:14Speaker 1: Let's let's and if you're gonna do these jogs, let's
- 1:11:16Speaker 1: let's let's all run to the gun store and purchase
- 1:11:19Speaker 1: legal firearms and get our gun permits and learn how
- 1:11:22Speaker 1: to use guns so we can protect ourselves from attacks
- 1:11:26Speaker 1: like the one a mad had to experience sadly. All right,
- 1:11:32Speaker 1: all right, well, thank you for the donkey of the day.
- 1:11:34Speaker 1: Now when we come back eight hundred five eight five
- 1:11:37Speaker 1: one oh five one. What are we discussing this morning?
- 1:11:39Speaker 1: Let's talk about death, man? What I mean? It seems
- 1:11:42Speaker 1: it seems like death was was everywhere this weekend, you know,
- 1:11:46Speaker 1: from Andre Horauld, a little Richard to Betty Wright to
- 1:11:49Speaker 1: you knowin Jerry Stiller to you know, um a man
- 1:11:53Speaker 1: de Blade. It just seemed like, yeah, death was everywhere.
- 1:11:58Speaker 1: So I just wonder what a people's thoughts about death,
- 1:12:01Speaker 1: and not even just this past weekend, you know, you know,
- 1:12:03Speaker 1: with with the passing of Kobe Bryant, with the passing
- 1:12:06Speaker 1: of you know, Nipsey Hustle. When you see these situations
- 1:12:09Speaker 1: like Ahmad Aubrey and Georgia, Like, what are your thoughts
- 1:12:13Speaker 1: about death? Dude? People, I just want to know what
- 1:12:17Speaker 1: your relationship is like with death, Like what do you
- 1:12:18Speaker 1: think about it? You know what I'm saying? Like I
- 1:12:20Speaker 1: have been questioning my own mortality in a way that
- 1:12:23Speaker 1: I never have before. So I have a lot of
- 1:12:27Speaker 1: thoughts about death. I just wonder what, what what? What's on? What?
- 1:12:30Speaker 1: What do y'all think? All right, let's let's talk about
- 1:12:32Speaker 1: it when we come back. Eight hundred five eight five
- 1:12:34Speaker 1: one on five one. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning
- 1:12:39Speaker 1: in right now at your opinion to the Breakfast Club
- 1:12:43Speaker 1: top eight hundred five eight five one on five one,
- 1:12:47Speaker 1: The Breakfast Club Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee,
- 1:12:54Speaker 1: Charlomagne the guy. We all the Breakfast Club, good morning now.
- 1:12:57Speaker 1: If you just joined us, we opened up the phone
- 1:12:59Speaker 1: line eight hundred five five one oh five one. So
- 1:13:03Speaker 1: many people passed away in the last couple of months,
- 1:13:06Speaker 1: in the last couple of days, from Andre Horrel to
- 1:13:09Speaker 1: Betty Right too, Little Richard to dj A Man the Blaze.
- 1:13:12Speaker 1: We can go a little further back to Nipsey Hustle,
- 1:13:15Speaker 1: just so many people so and of course the lives
- 1:13:19Speaker 1: lost from coronavirus COVID nineteen as well. So we're asking
- 1:13:23Speaker 1: what are your thoughts on death? That is that what
- 1:13:25Speaker 1: we're asking today? Yes, what are your thoughts on death? Simple,
- 1:13:28Speaker 1: simple question. Okay, well let's start in the room. Yeah,
- 1:13:30Speaker 1: let's start. What are your thoughts on death? Ye? I
- 1:13:33Speaker 1: think for myself it's something that has always been really
- 1:13:36Speaker 1: hard for me to process. I know a lot of
- 1:13:39Speaker 1: people are like immediately will go on you know, social
- 1:13:41Speaker 1: media and do the rest in peace thing. I think
- 1:13:43Speaker 1: for myself a lot of times it just takes me
- 1:13:45Speaker 1: a moment and sometimes I just like to process that
- 1:13:48Speaker 1: privately myself, and things kind of hit me not right away.
- 1:13:53Speaker 1: It'll be a moment, like a couple of days later
- 1:13:55Speaker 1: while I'm doing something and I'll think about it at
- 1:13:57Speaker 1: a random time. So myself, and if it's a family member,
- 1:14:02Speaker 1: that's even harder for me. Yeah, you know, for myself,
- 1:14:05Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think about death a lot. It's
- 1:14:09Speaker 1: just something that I know that it happens to everybody,
- 1:14:11Speaker 1: so I try not to think about it, but it
- 1:14:13Speaker 1: worries me. I would have to say, meaning, I just
- 1:14:16Speaker 1: want to make sure my family's good. And that's that's
- 1:14:18Speaker 1: the only thing that bothers me, you know, And that's
- 1:14:20Speaker 1: one of my anxieties we always talk about all the time.
- 1:14:23Speaker 1: I just want to make sure if when I leave
- 1:14:25Speaker 1: this earth, that my kids are good, my wife is good,
- 1:14:27Speaker 1: my family is good, and that I leave something for
- 1:14:31Speaker 1: a legacy that will continue to take care of my
- 1:14:34Speaker 1: family for generations to come. You know, you look at
- 1:14:37Speaker 1: what's going on, and you know there's a lot of
- 1:14:39Speaker 1: people out there that says, hey, you know, my son
- 1:14:41Speaker 1: lost his job, so you know what, but I'm good,
- 1:14:43Speaker 1: I got savings. I can help my son, you know.
- 1:14:45Speaker 1: And I want to make sure that i'm that for
- 1:14:47Speaker 1: my family that if anything ever happens, they can rely
- 1:14:49Speaker 1: on me, that something could continue to make sure that
- 1:14:52Speaker 1: my family is good, that they're secure, that I'm teaching
- 1:14:54Speaker 1: them to write things about business, about agriculture that they
- 1:14:57Speaker 1: can feed themselves. And I'm just trying to that. And
- 1:15:00Speaker 1: that's the things that that has me a little crazy
- 1:15:03Speaker 1: about death. But as far as it happening or how
- 1:15:06Speaker 1: it happens, or any of that. It's something that I
- 1:15:08Speaker 1: know I can't control, so I don't think about that
- 1:15:10Speaker 1: part or that aspect of it. Yeah, when it comes
- 1:15:13Speaker 1: to death, I'm not good with it. I don't want
- 1:15:15Speaker 1: to die anytime soon. I am not with that live fast,
- 1:15:18Speaker 1: die young mentality. I want to live to be old,
- 1:15:21Speaker 1: but I know I can't control it. If I to
- 1:15:24Speaker 1: your point, n Vy, if I didn't have a wife,
- 1:15:27Speaker 1: if I didn't have kids, I probably would be more
- 1:15:29Speaker 1: accepting of it. But I do want to be there.
- 1:15:31Speaker 1: I want to be here, you know, for them. But
- 1:15:34Speaker 1: my thoughts don't death have changed so much over the years,
- 1:15:36Speaker 1: because you know, when you're young, you believe in heaven
- 1:15:38Speaker 1: a hell, and if someone you love passes, you know
- 1:15:41Speaker 1: you're taught that you'll see them in the future. Then
- 1:15:43Speaker 1: you get older and you just don't know what happens
- 1:15:45Speaker 1: when you pass. You just know you don't want to die,
- 1:15:47Speaker 1: And then you start hearing stories of people making plans
- 1:15:49Speaker 1: before they passed. You know. I think about my grandmother
- 1:15:52Speaker 1: right before she died, she put her a wig on
- 1:15:53Speaker 1: like she was going somewhere, sat in her favorite chair
- 1:15:56Speaker 1: and you know, passed away. I think on you know, Harrel.
- 1:16:01Speaker 1: You know, I spoke to him Tuesday. He literally, you know,
- 1:16:03Speaker 1: sent me this line for line plan, like telling me,
- 1:16:06Speaker 1: you know, how it should be executed. And the last
- 1:16:09Speaker 1: thing I said to him was, Okay, I'm gonna send
- 1:16:10Speaker 1: you some ideas tomorrow. But guess what, there was no tomorrow,
- 1:16:13Speaker 1: you know, at least here. But I truly believe there
- 1:16:16Speaker 1: is something after this. And then, you know, when you
- 1:16:18Speaker 1: get old and you start, you know, having things like
- 1:16:20Speaker 1: life insurance and making your will, you know, things like that,
- 1:16:25Speaker 1: it really makes you feel like you're staring your your
- 1:16:28Speaker 1: your your your death in its face and you wonder
- 1:16:31Speaker 1: how close it is. But no, to your point, it's
- 1:16:34Speaker 1: just like we got to put those things in place
- 1:16:36Speaker 1: just in case, because every day is uncertain, right, you
- 1:16:39Speaker 1: just don't know. My plan is to live until I'm
- 1:16:42Speaker 1: ninety one hundred years old. I want to live until
- 1:16:44Speaker 1: I got to erectile this function. I actually don't ever
- 1:16:46Speaker 1: want to have a rerect out this function, but you
- 1:16:48Speaker 1: know what I mean. So it's like that's my plan,
- 1:16:51Speaker 1: but that may not be God's plan for me. And
- 1:16:53Speaker 1: you know, that's just a scary thought. But let's go
- 1:16:56Speaker 1: to the phone line. Hello, who's this Hey, good morning brother. Hey,
- 1:17:00Speaker 1: it's definitely it's always been curious to me. You know,
- 1:17:02Speaker 1: nobody's walking as earth, really know, after life is life?
- 1:17:05Speaker 1: You know, nobody died and can't warn nobody would expect,
- 1:17:08Speaker 1: you know, once they die. So what I'm curious about
- 1:17:10Speaker 1: is with white people raising their kids with hatred. How
- 1:17:13Speaker 1: about you know what you're gonna say after you die.
- 1:17:15Speaker 1: You know, it's very true slave masters throwing brothers off
- 1:17:18Speaker 1: ships in sixteen hundred. So let's say if they die,
- 1:17:21Speaker 1: it's true, you get judged and you go to heaven
- 1:17:23Speaker 1: and hell. They say they didn't know them slave. Now
- 1:17:25Speaker 1: the sixteen hundred and died, Let's say they look up
- 1:17:27Speaker 1: and what they were being judged by with the same
- 1:17:30Speaker 1: colors and brothers they were throwing off them ship. They
- 1:17:32Speaker 1: didn't know. It's gonna be a black soul or spirit judging.
- 1:17:35Speaker 1: We don't know, right, yeah, yeah, we don't talk about
- 1:17:38Speaker 1: hell enough like we used to. I feel like a
- 1:17:41Speaker 1: lot of times people also try to justify things that
- 1:17:43Speaker 1: they do in life, and they try to come up
- 1:17:45Speaker 1: with reasons why it's okay, and that's the that's the
- 1:17:48Speaker 1: man for the pastor's fault, because anybody that dies, the
- 1:17:53Speaker 1: pastor can appreciate preached them into heaven. No matter what
- 1:17:57Speaker 1: that person did, the pastor can always say, well, you
- 1:18:00Speaker 1: know they repented and you know God will have mercy
- 1:18:02Speaker 1: on their soul, and YadA, YadA yah. We don't talk
- 1:18:04Speaker 1: about hell enough because eight hundred if you believe in
- 1:18:07Speaker 1: having a hell, then they gotta be some people in hell, right,
- 1:18:09Speaker 1: I don't believe in neither. To be honest with you,
- 1:18:11Speaker 1: but let's open up the phone lines eight hundred five,
- 1:18:13Speaker 1: eight five, one oh five one. We're asking what are
- 1:18:16Speaker 1: your thoughts on death? Call us now? Is the Breakfast Club?

- 1:18:23Speaker 1: the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Now, if you
- 1:18:26Speaker 1: just joined us, we're asking what are your thoughts on death?

- 1:18:41Speaker 1: so many different people. So we're opening up the phone
- 1:18:44Speaker 1: lines eight hundred five eighty five, one oh five one Hello,
- 1:18:46Speaker 1: who's this? Hello? Hey? What's your name? Her? Can you
- 1:18:52Speaker 1: take us all Bluetooth? You got me selling like Teddy
- 1:18:54Speaker 1: Riley with the equa Yo, y'all gonna stop disrespecting Teddy Riley. Okay,
- 1:18:58Speaker 1: I'm tired all of this. Teddy Riley's land, Ericabod do
- 1:19:00Speaker 1: even disrespect to Eddy Riley This Weekends is not synonymous
- 1:19:05Speaker 1: with echoes. You know who? Mark shut him? Hello? Hello? Hey,
- 1:19:13Speaker 1: Now what is your thought on death right now? Um? Well,
- 1:19:16Speaker 1: I'm twenty seven a year old, and uh I live
- 1:19:20Speaker 1: I live out out of Detroit now, but you know,
- 1:19:23Speaker 1: I've had my experience with death. I believe death impacts
- 1:19:25Speaker 1: everybody differently, not only because people have experienced it so much,
- 1:19:30Speaker 1: but not only that, the experience where you know if
- 1:19:32Speaker 1: somebody is shot or you know if somebody dies really
- 1:19:35Speaker 1: really hard. Um. But um, people forget that this is
- 1:19:39Speaker 1: a cycle of life. You cannot live without dying and
- 1:19:41Speaker 1: cannot die without living. So um, I guess that helps
- 1:19:45Speaker 1: me cope better with death, knowing that you know there
- 1:19:47Speaker 1: can't be one without the others. But I heard always
- 1:19:50Speaker 1: knows oout the sting that loses song them. But um,
- 1:19:53Speaker 1: it alwaysn't take me different if it's not, you know, relatable.
- 1:19:56Speaker 1: But I always you know, I put my sympity out there,
- 1:19:58Speaker 1: my condolence. But that's only part of life, all right.
- 1:20:03Speaker 1: You're right they say death is not Death is not
- 1:20:05Speaker 1: the opposite of life. It's a part of it, all right. Hello,
- 1:20:09Speaker 1: who's this? Hey shawna, Hey Shanna, Good morning. How are
- 1:20:13Speaker 1: you feeling this morning? Good morning, I'm feeling glass. How
- 1:20:16Speaker 1: about you? Oh, we're feeling okay, we're blessed over here
- 1:20:19Speaker 1: as well. We're talking about death. What are your thoughts
- 1:20:22Speaker 1: on death? Okay? Well, Um, I kind of felt like,
- 1:20:24Speaker 1: you know, I guess when I was a little younger,
- 1:20:26Speaker 1: I was more scared of death because I just kind
- 1:20:29Speaker 1: of didn't really know the meaning behind it. Um. I
- 1:20:32Speaker 1: think now that I'm a little older, I kind of
- 1:20:35Speaker 1: feel like, you know, death doesn't discriminate, Death doesn't have
- 1:20:38Speaker 1: a name. You know, death is coming. You know, we
- 1:20:40Speaker 1: we live to die. So I just think that it's
- 1:20:43Speaker 1: important to, you know, live life the best way that
- 1:20:47Speaker 1: you can. Um, while you have the luxury of still
- 1:20:50Speaker 1: being on earth, you need to do right not only
- 1:20:52Speaker 1: by yourself, not only by God, but you got to
- 1:20:54Speaker 1: do right by others. And then when that day comes
- 1:20:57Speaker 1: for you to die, you know it is what it is.
- 1:21:00Speaker 1: As long as you've done what you was supposed to
- 1:21:02Speaker 1: do while you're here, then you know where you're going
- 1:21:04Speaker 1: when it's time for you to go. I agree with that.
- 1:21:06Speaker 1: I saw a switchpiech on social media talking about Andre
- 1:21:10Speaker 1: Horrell's passing and saying that he's doing a celebration of
- 1:21:13Speaker 1: his life because that's where Andre would have wanted. And
- 1:21:15Speaker 1: I think one thing you do one is when you
- 1:21:17Speaker 1: do pass away. That's why I agree with you. You
- 1:21:19Speaker 1: want people to remember you finally and celebrate those amazing
- 1:21:22Speaker 1: memories they have of you as a person. Yeah. I
- 1:21:25Speaker 1: agree with everything you're saying, except for that we know
- 1:21:27Speaker 1: where we're going. A part we don't know where we're going.
- 1:21:29Speaker 1: And I think that that that fear of uncertainty. Are
- 1:21:33Speaker 1: that fear of not understanding, right, because that's what they say,
- 1:21:36Speaker 1: people fear what they don't understand. If fear of not
- 1:21:37Speaker 1: understanding where you're going after your die, after you die,
- 1:21:40Speaker 1: I think what causes the anxiety, right, Well, thank you
- 1:21:44Speaker 1: for cola mama. So what's the moral of the story,
- 1:21:45Speaker 1: If there's a moral, I don't I don't know if
- 1:21:47Speaker 1: there's a moral. But I also wonder is it okay
- 1:21:49Speaker 1: to question death? Because questioning death seems like you're questioning God.
- 1:21:55Speaker 1: But then I wonder how much of a hand does
- 1:21:58Speaker 1: God have and whether you live or die? Because I
- 1:22:00Speaker 1: don't think God wants us to be taking each other's lives,
- 1:22:03Speaker 1: right Like, I think there's God's will and then there
- 1:22:06Speaker 1: is free will, you know, and and you know, sometimes
- 1:22:09Speaker 1: you make the choices to do things that you shouldn't
- 1:22:11Speaker 1: be doing, like when you pull out a gun and
- 1:22:13Speaker 1: kill another person. You know what I mean. I don't know.
- 1:22:15Speaker 1: I just wonder, you know, I wonder, you know, is
- 1:22:17Speaker 1: it okay to the question that, because it does feel
- 1:22:19Speaker 1: like you're questioning God, you know. But if there is
- 1:22:22Speaker 1: a moral to the story, I would just tell everybody
- 1:22:24Speaker 1: speak life, you know. I want to live, to be old.
- 1:22:28Speaker 1: I want to be the veteran og and just understand,
- 1:22:31Speaker 1: we all die. The goal isn't to lift over. The
- 1:22:34Speaker 1: goal is to create something that will right all right?
- 1:22:37Speaker 1: Well even got roomors all the way? Yes and Eminem

- 1:24:48Speaker 1: I know that I'd rather play with you. You know what,
- 1:24:51Speaker 1: you're kinky. Let's get to the room, by the way.

- 1:24:55Speaker 1: in that game if I had to play against v
- 1:25:00Speaker 1: A kinky My goodness, how we turn a benefit into
- 1:25:03Speaker 1: kinky talk? Now, I don't know what's happened. Let's get
- 1:25:06Speaker 1: to the rumors. Let's talk Eminem. This is the rum
- 1:25:10Speaker 1: of report with Angela. Yes, Eminem stopped by Little Wayne's
- 1:25:21Speaker 1: Young Money Radio and a lot of things that they
- 1:25:23Speaker 1: discussed included the new Michael Jordan's documentary, which we're about
- 1:25:26Speaker 1: to discuss. Also, one thing that they both do, and
- 1:25:29Speaker 1: it has to do with their lyrics because they've been
- 1:25:31Speaker 1: in this game for quite some time. Listen to this,
- 1:25:33Speaker 1: you start getting to the point where you've wrapped about
- 1:25:35Speaker 1: everything everywhere. Man, am I have to literally bro when
- 1:25:40Speaker 1: I'm doing something much. You can if you go through
- 1:25:43Speaker 1: my phone history, when my Google history is gonna and
- 1:25:45Speaker 1: you press all, first thing gonna come up as Little
- 1:25:48Speaker 1: Wayne lyrics. I literally have to google my lyrics to
- 1:25:50Speaker 1: make sure I didn't say certain stuff before. Yo. I
- 1:25:53Speaker 1: swear to God, I do that too, man, that's how
- 1:25:55Speaker 1: long we've been doing it. I just did that last night. Yeah.
- 1:26:00Speaker 1: I can't think about what could they have not ever
- 1:26:02Speaker 1: talked about and he both got a lot of bars
- 1:26:05Speaker 1: between them that makes sense, and especially Wayne because I
- 1:26:08Speaker 1: don't think Wayne writes. Wayne says he just goes into
- 1:26:10Speaker 1: studio and rap. So yeah, I'm sure you have to
- 1:26:11Speaker 1: keep track now other things. If you want to listen
- 1:26:13Speaker 1: to the whole interview, Eminem talks about pleasing old fans
- 1:26:16Speaker 1: and trying to reach new fans as well. They talk
- 1:26:18Speaker 1: about Killer Mike and Run the Jewels and yeah, a
- 1:26:21Speaker 1: lot of different things. So that's a good interview and
- 1:26:23Speaker 1: some donations that they're doing right now. So it's pretty
- 1:26:27Speaker 1: dope to listen to all right now, since they discussed
- 1:26:30Speaker 1: the Michael Jordan's documentary, let's talk about that. So Michael
- 1:26:33Speaker 1: Jordan talked about his father's death and there was a
- 1:26:36Speaker 1: lot of conspiracy theories. They said, you know, different things
- 1:26:39Speaker 1: about gambling connections, and Michael Jordan's father was murdered. His
- 1:26:44Speaker 1: body was found near the North Carolina and South Carolina border.
- 1:26:47Speaker 1: They searched for him for weeks. Here's what Michael Jordan
- 1:26:50Speaker 1: had to say. It did hurt, you know, but you
- 1:26:53Speaker 1: had people that were throwing darts who wanted to hurt me. Anyway.
- 1:26:55Speaker 1: It wasn't from the people that I loved, though, the
- 1:26:57Speaker 1: people that knew me and people that cares its people
- 1:27:00Speaker 1: that you know, got tired of me being on top.
- 1:27:03Speaker 1: There is an a thimble's worth of evidence to connect
- 1:27:06Speaker 1: that horrible incident to Michael Jordan's gambling or any other
- 1:27:11Speaker 1: aspect of Michael Jordan's behavior. Man, I almost cried. I
- 1:27:14Speaker 1: was right there. I felt the welling up happened, especially
- 1:27:17Speaker 1: when they showed him breaking down in the locker room,
- 1:27:19Speaker 1: you know. And what they did to Michael in regards
- 1:27:22Speaker 1: to his father and blaming him is what all you
- 1:27:24Speaker 1: lame mass social media conspiracy theorists do nowadays, all right,
- 1:27:28Speaker 1: talking about everything and everybody like y'all have a clue.
- 1:27:30Speaker 1: And I think it's so wacked that people could not
- 1:27:32Speaker 1: understand the toll the game was having on Michael Jordan's
- 1:27:34Speaker 1: mental and emotional well being, Like, yes, he needed a break,
- 1:27:38Speaker 1: you had to walk away, like it was no conspiracy,
- 1:27:40Speaker 1: Like look at what he was going through. Jesus Christ,
- 1:27:44Speaker 1: all right now. Michael Jordan also talked about his retirement
- 1:27:47Speaker 1: not having anything to do with gambling. There were people
- 1:27:51Speaker 1: saying that that was why he retired. And here's what
- 1:27:54Speaker 1: they said about that. The folklore, the urban legends that
- 1:27:57Speaker 1: I sent him away because he was gambling, ridiculous. There's
- 1:28:01Speaker 1: never no basis in fact, I didn't retire because he
- 1:28:05Speaker 1: kicked me out. Well, they suspended me for a year
- 1:28:08Speaker 1: and a half. That is not true. It's no truth
- 1:28:10Speaker 1: of that. I needed a break. You know, my father
- 1:28:13Speaker 1: just past and I retired, you know, and I retired
- 1:28:16Speaker 1: with the notion that I wasn't going to come back.
- 1:28:18Speaker 1: Prime example of people trying to understand what's going on
- 1:28:22Speaker 1: in somebody else's mind. It's not up for you to understand.
- 1:28:25Speaker 1: It's for that person. That person made a decision for himself.
- 1:28:28Speaker 1: You don't have to justify, well, why is Michael walking away?
- 1:28:30Speaker 1: Michael know why you walked away? Now. You also talked
- 1:28:33Speaker 1: about being hard on people, and when you watch this documentary,
- 1:28:36Speaker 1: some people might say, or he was so hard on everyone. Well,
- 1:28:38Speaker 1: here's what he had to say in response to y'all people.
- 1:28:41Speaker 1: Winning has a price, and leadership has a price. I
- 1:28:45Speaker 1: challenge people when they didn't want to be challenged, and
- 1:28:47Speaker 1: I earned that right because my teammates came after me.
- 1:28:51Speaker 1: Once you joined the team, you live in a certain
- 1:28:53Speaker 1: standard that I played the game and I wasn't gonna
- 1:28:55Speaker 1: take any less. Now that means I had to go
- 1:28:58Speaker 1: in and get in your ass a little bit, and
- 1:28:59Speaker 1: I did that. You ask all my teammates. The one
- 1:29:02Speaker 1: thing about Michael Jordan was he never asked me to
- 1:29:05Speaker 1: do something that he didn't do. When people see this
- 1:29:09Speaker 1: and they're gonna say, well, he wasn't really a nice guy.
- 1:29:11Speaker 1: He may have been a tyrant. Well that's you, because
- 1:29:13Speaker 1: you never wanted anything like I don't want to do this.
- 1:29:16Speaker 1: I'm only doing it because it is who That was
- 1:29:19Speaker 1: com mentality. If you don't want to play that way,
- 1:29:22Speaker 1: don't play that. That's right. Winning has a price. He
- 1:29:26Speaker 1: is a winner. He has a certain level that he
- 1:29:30Speaker 1: plays at and he wants everybody to rise to that level.
- 1:29:33Speaker 1: And I don't. I don't have a problem with it whatsoever. Championship, sure, dude.
- 1:29:38Speaker 1: And then Gary Payton spoke about the Seattle supersund expresses
- 1:29:41Speaker 1: the balls in the series and he said he didn't
- 1:29:43Speaker 1: know how to play against Michael Jordan, and Michael Jordan
- 1:29:46Speaker 1: responded to those comments. A lot of people back down
- 1:29:49Speaker 1: the bike. I didn't. I made it a point, I said,
- 1:29:52Speaker 1: just tire him out tired. You just got to tire
- 1:29:56Speaker 1: him out. And I kept heat even and banging him
- 1:29:59Speaker 1: and even banging it. It took a toll on Mike,
- 1:30:02Speaker 1: and took a toll and then resting him a little
- 1:30:06Speaker 1: bit and then the serious church And I wish I
- 1:30:10Speaker 1: could have did it earlier. I don't know if the
- 1:30:13Speaker 1: would have been different, but it was a difference and
- 1:30:18Speaker 1: beat him down a little bit. I had no problem
- 1:30:20Speaker 1: with the glove. I had a lot of the things
- 1:30:22Speaker 1: on my mind. How do you feel about that they
- 1:30:25Speaker 1: lost the series? For the two they did? The Bulls
- 1:30:28Speaker 1: won the first three games. Seattlet want two in a roll?
- 1:30:31Speaker 1: I don't, you know. I can't. And it's easy to say,
- 1:30:34Speaker 1: you didn't you know you could have held Michael, but
- 1:30:36Speaker 1: you didn't. You know you didn't. You can't. You can't
- 1:30:40Speaker 1: talk about what you could have did when when they
- 1:30:42Speaker 1: beat you. Honestly, Yeah, and Gary, Gary Payton is a beast,
- 1:30:45Speaker 1: one of the greatest defensive players of all time. He
- 1:30:49Speaker 1: was saying if he was smarting him the whole time.
- 1:30:51Speaker 1: Maybe I don't know they did win, what could have
- 1:30:54Speaker 1: what it could have shied nobody, But yeah, I just
- 1:30:58Speaker 1: don't think. I think but didn't have Jordan's reaction to
- 1:31:00Speaker 1: that though. That's what's interesting. Yeah, nobody beats Michael Jordan,
- 1:31:04Speaker 1: and Michael Jordan don't want don't want to be beat.
- 1:31:06Speaker 1: I actually believe that, all right. And you know Sunday
- 1:31:09Speaker 1: Nights is also Insecure Nights as well. And I just
- 1:31:11Speaker 1: want to shout out to Evan and Org She has
