• 4:21
  Speaker 1: he's like Greek Freak is a walking thirty and ten
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: plus rebounds. But trade was amazing. What else did guy? All? Right? Well,
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: Joe Biden said he wants to supercharge what works. He
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: wants to crack down on a road gun dealers, and
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: also increase funding for police and social service programs. They're
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: saying there's been a huge surgeon crime. I know, we've
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: all been talking about it. They said there's been a
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: thirty percent increase in homicides last year, with another twenty
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: four percent increase at the beginning of this year. Here's
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: what Joe Biden had to say today. The Department's announcing,
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: as suggested, a major crackdown on stem the flow of
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: guns used to commit violent crimes. It's zero tolerance for
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: gun dealers who willfully violate key existing laws and regulations.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: If you will sell a gun to someone who's prohibited
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: from possessing it, if you willfully fail to run a
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: background check, if you willfully false fire record, if you
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: willfully fail to cooperate with the tradition request or inspections.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: My message you as this will find you right, so
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: they will revoke the licenses of gun dealers who actually
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: violate all of those laws by giving firearms to unauthorized persons.
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: In addition to that, this is a three hundred and
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: fifty billion dollar commitment in state and local funding for
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: the American Rescue Plan. Here is what Joe Biden had
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: to say about that funding. Discuss historic funding for states,
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: cities and counties, and tribes for law enforcement and crime.
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: For mention cities experienced an increase in gun violence, We're
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: able to use the American Rescue Plan dollars to hire
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: three solficers needed for community policing and to pay their overtime.
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: Mayors will also be able to buy crime fighting technologies
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: like gunshot detection systems to better seeing style gun violence
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: in the communities. They can use the funding to scale
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: up wraparound service for the residents as well, including substance
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: abuse and mental health services. So it's up to the
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: states and local governments to determine how they're going to
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: spend the funds that are allocated according to this plan,
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: but it also will be expanded to include summer camp programs,
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: and mental health services, food assistants, job placement programs, and
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: other social services that help prevent crime. The only thing is,
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: with states and local governments, you can also choose to
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: only use that money to hire more police officers. So
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: it's really state by state. Yeah, I'm all for putting
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: more money into these communities providing more opportunity and more resources.
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: Is that definitely keeps you know, the kids, kids that
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: might be going in the crime off the street. But
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: we just gotta make sure we're not getting you know,
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: the ninety four crime build all over again. Because Joe
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: Biden is a tough one crime politician, always has been,
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: always will be. His crimes have always led to the
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: over policing and mass and culturation of black and brown people.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: So yes, we do need less guns off the street
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: for show, but I just hope it doesn't lead to
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: more black and brown people being thrown under the jet.
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: Well that's gonna be why it's important to also vote
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: in your local elections because, like we said, this is
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: up to states and local governments to determine how they
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: spend those funds. I was confused though, Like when you
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: buy a car, right, there's a vendnumb on the cast,
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: so they know exactly what they've ven number goals. I
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: thought it was the same thing with a gun. Yeah,
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: but a lot of these guns are illegal though. I mean, yes,
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: you can buy guns. You know you're talking about legally
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: legally p Yeah, he's saying that if you are a
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: gun dealer, right, and let's just say you don't give
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: a background check, you falsify records, you sell it to
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: an unauthorized person, you can have your license revoked as
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: a gun dealer. Absolutely, But let's be clear, a lot
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: of these crimes that are happening in the street, these
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: guns on legal guns are illegally. Come on, yeah, we
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: know that, all right. In addition to that, the Vice
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: President Kamala Harris will be going to the US Mexico
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: border on tomorrow actually, and that trip is to our Pasto, Texas,
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: after she has been dogged for not even going to
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: the border so far, even though that's her job to
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: oversee that. All right, Well that is your front page

  Speaker 1: one of those things where it's about smoking mirrors again,
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, because a lot of these
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: gun dealers, they're not selling guns illegal. What's happening is
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: a lot of these guys while we're looking at a
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: forward up getting killed in the streets and stuff like that.
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: These young boards were they do when they getting these
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: girlfriends and baby mamas to go on the stores and
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: they buy the flowarms for them illegally buy farms, and
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: that's how a lot of times they get fowers on
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: the street. Also, what's happening and you get a lot
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: of these guys that they're breaking them vehicles, they're breaking
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: their homes and they get stooling guns and that's how
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: the guns get on the street. But a lot of
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: times they get people that can legally buy farms and
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: then the guns out on the street. So it sounds good,
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: what are you talking about? But at the same time,
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: it's not going to stop these guys from getting these
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: guns at all. Right, I just think it's part of
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: a strategy. I don't think that's the only thing that
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: you do right, right, right. I don't think it's a
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: bad day. It's just a it's a it's a new policy.
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: I don't think it's a bad day. I'm just scared
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: of Biden because he's been a historically tough on crime,
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: you know, politician, and you know those tough on crime
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: policies always impact black and brown people the most. Absolutely.
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: But it is also I agree with you, I'm so Angela. Um,
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: it is sometimes doing something and that's good. But at
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: the same time, we have to be careful where people
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: don't just think, oh, well, these guys are all the
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: guns that they're getting on bought illegally. Yeah, not at
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: the way people are bought the guys. You know what
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: I'm saying, Right, this is just a new policy that's
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: never been implemented before. So any way that anything can
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: improve these guns that are illegally on the streets, I
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: think is a you know, that's a good thing. But again,
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: state and local government, you guys have to make sure
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: you know who you're voting for because they're the ones
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: who are going to allocate how those funds are distributed. Yep.
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: We we just got to be careful man, because the
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: ninety four crime bills started the same exact way, people
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: complaining about what was happening in the street. Next thing
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: you know, we're being over police and mass and carts
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: are right and now and now the legal people won't
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: be able to buy if they need them. Yep, yes, sir,
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: so I'm pretty sure this. Y'all. Have a great morning,
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: all right, can't get it off your chest eight hundred five,
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: eight five one or five one. If you need to vent,
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: you can hit us something. We got rumors all the way, yes,
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: and let's tuck about Kenya Barros. He's making some big moves.
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: He has a label deal, a podcasting deal. He's left Netflix.
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: We'll tell you what he had to say. All right,
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: we'll get into all that when we come back. It's
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. Hey, good morning.
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy we
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: all the Breakfast Club? Good morning? Yeah, all right, Well,
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: let's get to these rumors. Let's talk Kenya Barross. It's
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: about the rumor report Angela Yee on the Breakfast Club. Well,
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: Kenya Barras is on the cover of The Hollywood Reporter
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: and he's talking about exiting his Netflix deal. It was
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: a one hundred million dollar deal that he left in January. Now.
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: According to his interview, he said the marriage wasn't perfect
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: because he wasn't willing to be the broadly commercial producer
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: of the streamer wanted him to be, and Netflix wasn't
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: interested in being the edgy home that Kenya Barris wanted.
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: He said, I want to do in your face ish.
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: He said that Netflix didn't let him create what was
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: gonna what he wanted, and they also brought up Charlemagne,
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: who had told listeners of The Breakfast Club that Black
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: af was like white people doing a bad impression of
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: black people. Kenya Barris said, of course he did want
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: Charlemagne to like the show, but I guess his he
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: was more interested in what other people thought about the show.
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: Other thought leaders right. In addition to that, he said,
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: I just don't know that my voice is Netflix's voice.
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: He says, the stuff I want to do is a
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: little bit more edgy, a little bit more high brow,
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: a little more heavy, and I think Netflix wants down
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: the middle. They also tried to get him to run
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: a multicam sitcom that they were developing According to sources,
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: it was Jamie Fox's dad stopped embarrassing me, which is
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: now canceled, but he refused to do that. So in
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: addition to exiting this Netflix deal and he has inked
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: to new deal with Viacom CBS, he also is launching
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: a music label with Interscope Records and also a podcasting
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: deal with Audible. Luther Kenya spoke to Kenya last night.
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: He actually called me because a lot of times these
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: publications take things out of context and have us going
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: back and forth with each other over nothing. Okay, was
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: there a back and forth? What you mean? I mean,
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: you guys were having a back and forth over Oh no,
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: I'm saying it could have been though. I mean if
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: I read that article, if I read that article and
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: didn't talk to Kenya, I could probably come on here
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: and say something, you know, in defense of myself. But
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: for what you know, I like Kenya. We like each
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: other all right now. Tristan Thompson has been granted fifty
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: thousand dollars and a libel lawsuit involving paternity accuser Kimberly Alexander.
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: She was ordered to pay him that money and general
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: damages and a conditional default judgment that was issued on Tuesday.
• 18:45

• 18:48
  Speaker 1: twenty after she claimed that he's the father of her
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: five year old son and DNA tests results revealed he
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: is not the father. According to the judgment, he originally
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: had asked for a one hundred thousand dollars in damages
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: because of loss of mutation, shame, mortification, and hurt feelings,
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: but he says that he had not received an endorsement
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: deal since January of twenty twenty, but the judge found
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: it was insufficient evidence that her accusations were the cause,
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: so instead they gave him fifty thousand dollars. According to
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: the court document, does she have fifty thousand dolls? I

  Speaker 1: great and I just thought that was pretty dope. I
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: was gonna tell him next time he came up here.

• 20:26
  Speaker 1: seen the kids getting into a little trouble and took
• 20:28

• 23:14
  Speaker 1: of those people who changes the complexion of the game.
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: When he gets going, he gets going. All right, now,
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: what else we got ye, Well, let's take it to Detroit.
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: Jacqueline Davis is a gambler and she got hooked on
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: internet casino betting. She was playing on bet MGM the
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: Luck of the Roulette game. She started in March eighteenth,
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: and she played for five days straight. She actually was
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: up and down right. At one point she was up
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: eleven million dollars, but then she ended up going back
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: down and she ended it at three million. That's when
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: she finally decided to stop. She was ahead three million
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: dollars and now they won't pay her money. Here she
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: is with her attorney talking about what's going on. They're
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: claiming there was a glitch in the game and they
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: were instructed by regulation to check this every single night.
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: And my client played for five straight days. Did everybody
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: who lost money get their money back? So might say
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: that you knew the game was broken? Did you? How?
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: What a because you're a winner all the time. Well,
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: I mean that's the purpose of gamblin You're playing to win. Nah,
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: They gotta give her. They gave her a one hundred
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: thousand dollars and they want her to sign a confidentiality
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: agreement that if the glitch ever got out, she would
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: have to give back the hundred thousand plus pay bet
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: MGM's costs. She's not signing that agreement and bet MGM.
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: They reached out to them, Fox too, but they had
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: no comment and hung up the phone as well. But
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: that is not fair. No, it's not fair. She from
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: Detroit too, right, what nah give her her money. It's
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: not her fault if there was a glitch. It was
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: not a glitch. She don't know that. But also, and
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: the attorney's right, did you give back all the money
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: that people lost during those five days? If you're saying
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: there was a glitch, you said she played the game
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: for five days? A great yeah, she said she barely
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: slept because she was up down. She want three million
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: dollars and they won't pay her. They Oh no, no,
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: that's not I ain't even hit that part. That's not
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: how that works. Where are you just no? I just
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: heard him say she played for five days. I'm sitting
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: there trying to figure out why she supposed to get
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: the money. She won three million dollars million, So why
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: they won't pay her again because they said there was
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: a glitch. Are you listening, man? It ain't no goddamn glitch.
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: We just said that the glitches that she won three
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: million dollars and nobody supposed to win those games are ricks,
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: so you don't win. That's the whole thing. Yeah, she
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: started with a fifty dollars beat. She started with the
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: fifty dollars beat, and she started increasing. The max on
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: the table was five thousand dollars. And like I said,
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: at one point she was up eleven million. I wanted
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: what the fine print? She was up eleven million to
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: day stop? No, she kept playing and then but I
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: mean she was ready to cash out at three million.
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: I wonder where the fine print is in those type
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: of situations, because it's got to be something, right. I'm
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: sure they have something that protects them from having to
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: pay that type of money. But then there's got to
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: be something to where they they have to pay her something. Right.
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: They paid her one hundred thousand. Oh no, hell no, no, no,
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: she should have cast at eleven million. That's what she
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: bugged bugging out at. No, but that's the point of gambling.
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: When you're winning that much, you feel like you're gonna
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: win even more. So that's why how they get you
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: eleven million walk away? No, she started fifty dollars. She
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: happy with eleven million? Three million? You walk away? She did.
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: She had a lot, boy, she had eleven, she had
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: eleven at one point. I'm so confused. No, what's just
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: so confused? How she lost all this money? How you
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: were from three to eleven to one hundred dollars? She
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: started with fifty dollars, She got all the way up
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: to eleven million dollars winning, and then how long? How
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: many days? Five days to win eleven million? And then
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: she lost? And then she cast at a three million.
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: She should have cast at eleven. But regardless, she won
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: three million dollars. Didn't want to get up. Everybody knew
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: the cash out. When they were up like they are,
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: everybody would cast and nobody knows. She probably thought she's
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: gonna get up to twenty million. But this wife's confusing me.
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: You're saying she should have cashed out at eleven. You're
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: saying she cast out at three. She didn't get nine
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: of that. That's what I'm saying what did it matter
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: if she would have cashed out at eleven? She gonna
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: get that three million. We're gonna make sure she get that.
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: We're gonna keep talking about. All I know is y'all
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: old Jacqueline David from Goddamn you go. That's tomorrow. This
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: all right? Well that is your front page news. Geez.

  Speaker 1: my life documentary? What made you say I wanted's time
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: to do it? Now? Well? I did it like two
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: years ago. I was on the Royalty Tour and it
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: was the twenty fifth anniversary of the My Life album
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: and there everybody was celebrating it, and I felt like,
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: you know, it was time to do it then, because
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: it was the twenty fifth and I never did it,
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: and everybody was like, you should do it, you know,
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: and I said, this is the right time because I
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: can gather up all the testimonies and gather up all
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: the love and the energy and shoot the documentary we
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: did in like two years, So this is just it
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: was just time. Teleman and I said earlier today that
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: we cried watching it. Yeah, I cried. I cried like
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: three times, like three times, and I was I was like,
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: I was, I was watching it for you. I could
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: tell it was emotional, and I was wondering, like, you know,
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: reliving the making of the album that to stir up
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: more happiness or trauma. I look at this as like
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: the other side, Like we're on the other side of
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: it now, So we're not crying just because we're visiting
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: this and we're sad about it. We're revisiting and we're
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: sad because we had to see it, but we're also
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: crying because We're happy that we're on the other side.
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: We got out on the other side. But you know,
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: it was painful having to go back and see all
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: that stuffe Andre too. Yeah, you know, but it's but
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: it's it's it's okay now because I can. I can
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: do that because I'm strong enough to do that. Now.
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: We're happy Andre was there. I mean, I know you're happy,
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: but isn't it a blessing that Andrea was dead to
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: talk and to share experiences and everything. Yeah, I was
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: so happy that we got a chance to get him,
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: because nobody knew that he wasn't going to be here,
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: so that, Yeah, to see him in the documentary made
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: me cry. And you said you didn't know that you
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: were you back then, And I think so many women,
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: so many black women go through that when they're younger,
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: when you when you look back and you're like, I
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: didn't know how specialized was. Your fans knew, and they
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: knew how much you touched them, and you helped people
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: get through so many difficult times, But you didn't know
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: the power that you had, not at all, not even
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: a little bit. That's why I ran myself through so
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: many things. I went through drugs, and alcohol and just
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: treating myself so bad because I didn't know I was
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: worthy of anything. I didn't know I was this person
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: that I can truly say I deserve everything now, you know,
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: because I give so much in my life, and I
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: worked so hard on myself, you know, not anybody else
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: on me mentally, spiritually, physically. So I didn't know I
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: had this power, and I didn't know. I didn't know.
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: I just didn't know, you know what I mean. And
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: when you don't know who you are, you can't treat
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: yourself well. You can't you know, good to anybody else,
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: you know. So now I feel like I earned the
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: right to say I'm good for something, I'm good to someone,
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: and I'm good for everything because I earned it and
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: I'm still earning it because it's not over. I cried
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: watching you um talk to your younger self and when
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: you was watching the video, like, at what point did
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: you know you're you're inner child needed healing. It was
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: a it was a years and years of finding out.
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: I think twenty sixteen was my like, real, you know what, Mary,
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: you have to really gather all of you up, the
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: young you, to confuse you, the the everything you just
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: and just love all of you. I can't say it
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: came in nineteen ninety four and nineteen ninety six or two.
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: It just it was a process of you gotta love you, baby,
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: you older, you, confuse you, great, you, clumsy you, whatever
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: it is you are, alcoholic you, whatever it is, you
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: have to love you. And the child was suffering thinking
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: everything was her fault. And that's that's the one that
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: was making me feel ashamed. So I had to, you know,
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: as an adult with all his confidence, you know that
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: I'm developing. That's the one that I embraced the most,
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: because she got hurt the most. When did you realize
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: that you needed to change? Like? What was the knock
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: on the door, the thing that says, no, I need
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: to figure this out. Now? What in twenty and sixteen
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: got you to that point? What twenty sixteen was terrible?
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: You know, we all we all saw it go down
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: in the world. What happened When I got out of
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: that terrible situation, I was like, I'm never going to
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: allow myself to hurt like that again, or anybody to
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: hurt me like that again. I don't deserve that, and
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: I don't deserve to treat myself like that. So I
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: think it was during a No More Drama when I
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: was like, I'm tired of feeling like this. It was
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: an ongoing process of healing, getting getting better, getting stronger.
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: But the actual day, I don't know the day, but
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: the time was during a normal drama albums when I said,
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: I'm tired. I'm tired of feeling like this. I'm tired
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: of feeling like I hate myself. I'm tired of feeling
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: like I want to kill myself. I'm tired. So it
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: was a process of just still doing the same thing,
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: but trying to be stronger, trying to be happy, trying
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: to find some joy somewhere somehow. And we soldiers and
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: we're strong and we're from the hood and nothing embarrasses
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: us easy, so it's like what else you got? But
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: really tested me? But seeing Papa us are talking about
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: how both of you were going through so much during
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: that time, just a lot of heartache, and you guys
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: wear kids like we forget that when we look back
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: at it. You were so young when you put that
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: album out, going through so many different things, so you
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: guys are leaning on each other a lot during that time.
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: What were those conversations like with Puff well you were
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: doing the album, I mean about his pain, you know,
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: what he was going through. He never really got into
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: detail with me about it, but I knew because I know,
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: I know him and I knew him, and I knew
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: what he was dealing with. What he was just, you know,
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: like any man, didn't want to discuss it with his
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: little sister. Me. On the other hand, I was, you know,
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: dying in public, so everybody knew what I was dealing with.
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: But I didn't want to really tell him what I
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: was dealing with because I didn't want him to kill somebody.
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: So I just but he knew, though he knew, and
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: so you know, he said, just put it in the records,
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: just put just so mad. When I've seen Casey do
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: that interview where he was I was, like the international interview, yes,
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: and then they asked you to question. I mean, I
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: had to do the worst, like honestly, like disgusting because
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: as women looking at it like that's Mary, like show
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: some respect, damn Jay Blithe. But like you said, at
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: that time, you didn't even know exactly it was embarrassing.
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: But look how I was treating myself, you know, I
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: mean I can't. I'm not taking a whole blame, but
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: I had to take responsibility for me. This is what
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: was lightening the lol. You know, I'm not pointing the finger.
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: You did it. You did a lot of people did it.
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: But I gotta fix it, period. And you talk about
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: forgiveness too on there, So what is it past as
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: a forgiveness like for you when it kind of sell
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: other things that you've been through. Like you said, you
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: can't take all the responsibility. You just got to release people.
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: Just release them, and that's it. I can't be responsible
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: for what you did, and I can't keep pointing my
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: finger at you for what you did. I write you
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: did it. I don't never have to see you again.
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: I don't never have to deal with you again, but
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: I do have to deal with me every single day.
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: And I'm not going to carry the poison of unforgiveness
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: in my heart. You don't even know that I'm feeling this,
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: feeling like this all my life. So I don't want
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: to be stuck and dying every day. You know, every
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: time you get stuck in um unforgiveness and you just
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: get stuck, it's like you dying every day. You're losing
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: yourself again. It's like I want to grow, I want
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: to I want more. So you do forgive everybody, but
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: you just don't want to see it. You just dont
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: want to be like, Yeah, forgiveness does not necessarily mean reconciliation.
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: I need to reconcile. All you just need to know
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: is that I forgive you. And please don't come over here,
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: because every day I have to remember that I forgive you.
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: Like that's it's a process. We have to remember that
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: we forgave a person because when you see him, you
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: gotta remember what made you forgive them. Yes, I'm to
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: forgive face. What allowed you to say that all those
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: people that hurt you that you said, you know what
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: you hurt me? You might not even apologize when I
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: forgive you? What what allowed you to do that? Because
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: I'm not I can't. I'm not there yet. I don't
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: have any time to waste on you, you know, me
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: being mad at you, like I just I don't care
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: dealing with success, that's right. Yeah, I just gotta I
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: gotta keep pushing, I gotta keep moving, and if you don't,
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: you're gonna you know, you're just gonna be stuck and
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: being stuck is the worst thing that can happen to you,
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: just stuck and you just so many people just stuck
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: in nineteen ninety four. I don't I don't want to
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: be stuck in nineteen nineteen. I don't want to be
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: stuck in twenty twenty. I want to be already in
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty one thinking about the next thing. But I
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: can't move if I'm still in nineteen ninety four. Pissed
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: at you, got you all pissed yourself. That's why, That's
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: why I love that scene where you just talking to
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: your younger self, because I was sitting there like, how
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: do you forgive your younger self? How do you give
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: your younger self at grace? You know, and you talk
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: to her with so much care because it's you, it's
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: your child. When I look at him, like, gosh, she
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: hurts so much. She's been through hell. I love her.
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: I gotta, And I look at the little girl pictures
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: she's been through hell. I gotta. I gotta take care
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: of her because she's me and if I don't take
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: care of her, she can get me hurt. Right when
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: we come back, we got more with Mary J. Blige.
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: Let's get into a Mary Mini mix man. Mary said,
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning morning everybody, and Steve
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: j Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are the
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Mary J. Blige.
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: And what the different was when you said you talked
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: about all the things that you dealt with as a child,
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: and they were all hard and nasty. I wouldn't want
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: that for anybody. But then when you said this more
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: that I can't even talk about, I was like, what's
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: the more? Because I mean, you you you said some
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: things that are so horrible, Like I'm like you, you
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: were dealing with a lot, and the fact that you
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: were able to climb out of it is a blessing.
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: And who was there besides your sister to help you
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: crawl out of those situations? It was just me, my
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: mom and my sister, two women living in the hood,
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: no male figure. I mean, it was hell just getting
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: to the store, my mother going to work, leaving us
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: with people she thinks she can trust. And that's life,
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean. And my mother's a soldier
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: and we just watched her and mimicked her, you know.
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: During that interview, when you were watching your younger self,
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: you said that you used to be mean, right, so
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: I'm like, never smile, she said, never smile? And you
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: didn't like the interviewer. You said, you must not have
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: liked the interviewer that was doing it. I know I didn't, okay,
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: So what would make you like not like somebody? And
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: was that a reputation because you yourself said you were mean?
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: Was it a reputation you had because I haven't heard
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: Mary with me, but you were going through a lot,
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: and sometimes people don't understand that. And I feel like
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: even today when you interview these celebrities, you don't people
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: think it's a perfect life, but they also don't understand
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: what goes on behind the scenes. And so was that
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: something that hindered you in any way? Was it a reputation?
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: It absolutely hindered me. And I had a reputation for
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: being a bit and being difficult and not making it
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: to interviews one time, not making it to shows. And
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: I was doing all of that. I was bad. My
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: thing was I didn't trust anybody, and it took me
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: a long time to trust. I still don't really trust
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: people that much. But then I was just on guard
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: straight out of the hood, like please, just don't say
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: nothing stupid. And it seemed like everyone that interviewed me
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: was saying something stupid and asking the same stupid questions
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: over and over again. But what I realized when I
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: got older is that that's their job. And I realized
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: that I have to learn how to respect people's job,
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: even if they're being stupid. Did you ever rectify that,
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: like go back and talk to people later? And I did.
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: I remember I had to go to the to the
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: record label, and um, just apologize to so many people.
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: And when I apologize to all those people, they were
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: like like they were holding their hearts, like like they
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: was like, thank you so much. And I was like,
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: oh my god, and I must have been a monster
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: and I don't. I don't even remember all the stuff
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: I did. And they were coming up to me and
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: telling me that I was cursing them out, and you know,
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: I remember some of it, but some people, I was like,
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: I don't even remember your face. I was just going off.
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: That's because I didn't trust anybody and I was on guard.
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: How difficult was it because you know, we were all
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: in high school and we don't see how hard it
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: took We just knew Mary Jim Blas signed and all
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: of a sudden, Reminists was cool and in real love
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: out the window. How long did it take for you
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: to get going? Was it a long drive or was
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: it just first single in the pop Well? The first
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: thing I did was with jeff Red m Jeff Red
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: was already signed and I went. I started singing background
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: with him on some of his out on his records,
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: and then I did the Apolo with him. If you
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: look at the Apollo, that's me in the background singing
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: with Jeffred And that was my one of my moments.
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: But I had to go back to slow Mom after that,
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: and after the father MC video, I had to I
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: still had to go home. It was terrible. Star in
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: the Hood though. When you came home, listen to my
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: friends that hated me, I was. I was. I had
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: to fight, My family had to fight. We had to.
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: It was rough and I didn't realize what was Now.
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: Did I go back and think about him, like, wow,
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: we was really in the hood still while the Breakfast
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: was charting, It's crazy. I wondered what was going through
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: your mind? Because you know, you performed Anita Baker for Andre,
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: and then you got the opportunity to perform with Anita Baker.
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: What was going through your mind in that moment when
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: you was performing with it? What was? What was? What
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: was that Mary telling little Mary? I was just so
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: happy that that Anita Baker existed, because if it wasn't
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: for Anita Baker, I wouldn't be sitting here if it
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: wasn't for that tape that I made accord up in
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: the Rapture Andre when it came to house. So when
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: I was singing with her on stage, and I was
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: about to cry, like cryy five minutes because that woman
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: was my angel. But who knew that one of my
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: favorite songs was want to get Me the deal that
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: I got? That's why you kept telling to take it
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: away because you about to cry. And that's why it
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: seems like don't cry because I was being mess Do
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: you realize how big you are for the culture, what
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: you did for the culture? Do you step back and
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: be like, damn, like you know who she is? Yet?
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: Do you know who you are? Now? I do now.
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: It took me a while. It took me. Twenty sixteen
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: was the day I woke up and said, all right,
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: I'm it I earned it, like I went through hell
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: to hell to hell to hell to hell to hell
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: to hell, and twenty sixteen was like enough of this
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: hell man. So it took me a minute to learn
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: how to receive. But I'm receiving it now since since
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: you know now realize who you are in the impact
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: you have on people, that make you more intentional about
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: about your words. Yes, and it makes me know that
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: it's a responsibility. And I have to take all this
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: with humility. I can't just take it like how to
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: take it with thank you and grace. Thank you so much.
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: But you know, when it's goal time, I'm just I'm monstuitted,
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: you know, from performing, you know, to whatever I do,
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: I give one hundred percent. I can't think about what
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: someone's thinking about me or what someone's not thinking about me.
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: I gotta just go. Is there ever a time where
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: Mary would do a versus because we talk about unbeatable
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: artists right in my opinion, there was just a rumor
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: about Tony Braxton and they had to clear that up.
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: I don't know what the verses would do for me.
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: I'll do like I'm I don't know what verses can
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: do for Mary J plies right now. But um, right now,
• 42:55
  Speaker 1: it's not something that's on the top of my list.
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: It got to be extended one hundred songs versus but
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: you know, because you got too many songs, Like, I
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: don't even know, how could you narrow it down to twenty?
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: You couldn't. I say it all the time, it's not
• 43:10
  Speaker 1: even close. Now you dedicated to doctor mister Andre Horrell,
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: who you called dad. At what point did he become
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: that father's figure in your life? When um, I was
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: in the music industry alone with no father figure, and
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: he was there a lot, like he was there to
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: talk me out of my foolishness. Why are you doing this?
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: Why are you doing drugs? Why are you doing alcohol?
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: Like like I would hide from him because I didn't
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: want want him to see me, you know, in that condition,
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: because I knew he had something to say, and he'd
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: just be giving me that look like like a father,
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: like I don't like this. Yeah, And I was hide
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: and I was hiding all the stuff I was doing
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: from puff. He didn't really know. Could you ever love again,
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: like be in love again with somebody? Would you ever
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: have that trust for somebody again? Or no? Love is
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: beautiful for the moment. You know, I would never reject love,
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: but marriage is something that I would reject right now.
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: I can also tell you this about watching the doc.
• 44:04
  Speaker 1: You have been doing a lot of healing work, do
• 44:06
  Speaker 1: you do? You might share what you've been doing, just
• 44:08
  Speaker 1: some self help books, prayer, looking at myself real good,
• 44:15
  Speaker 1: always checking myself, like if something is bothering me about someone,
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: why is something about you bothering me? Just you know,
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: I have friends and people that are into self healing,
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: to that of teachers and stuff like that. So I
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: take information that makes sense to me from anywhere where
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: I can get it, you know, like if you have
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: a good word, I'll take a good work. You got
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: a word, I'll take a word from you. Because prayer
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: just reveals to you you you know, and sometimes the
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: worst thing to look at is you. But I'd rather
• 44:47
  Speaker 1: see me acting ugly or see need needing whatever kind
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: of help I need so I can know how to
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: fix it. And that's really it's no, it's no, like, oh,
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: you know, I visited you know, all the strengths in
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: the world, which nothing's wrong, nothing wrong with that at all,
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: you know. But I think the best shrink is us,
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: like we just need to be able to look at
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: ourselves and and say it's okay. I know to Roger,
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: been on you going to therapy though, No, like we don't.
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: We don't badge each other with stuff like that. It's
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: like when you're ready, I feel like that's a Capricorn
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: thing too. Yeah, we don't get in a way. We're like, look,
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: we love it all right, you're safe. Call me out
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: something going wrong now, you know, But we don't like
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: you need to you need because we don't want nobody
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: you need to on us. We're not just mental. Were like, yeah,
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: they don't move. We got more with Mary J. Blige
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: when we come back. Let's get into another Mary mix. Right,
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: it's the breakfast Club. Good morning morning. Everybody is stej Envy,
• 45:44
  Speaker 1: Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are the breakfast Club.
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: We're still kicking with Mary J. Blige. Ye, Now, what
• 45:50
  Speaker 1: about your instincts. You talk a lot about how you
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: have really great instincts where there are times that you
• 45:54
  Speaker 1: feel like you should have followed your instincts and you
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: didn't and you disregarded it. Every day, everybody, damn every day.
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: From from nineteen ninety four to for a long time. Yeah,
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: when I didn't, when I don't listen to my gut,
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: on my instincts, disaster, I mean like big disasters, Like
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: I've had some big disasters that I didn't follow mine.
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: It was the moment when you say, okay, God, I
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: finally hear you twenty sixteen. Yeah, okay, okay. What got
• 46:24
  Speaker 1: you into, you know, saying you know what, I'm gonna
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: sit down and do a serious like you know, we've
• 46:27
  Speaker 1: seen you in movies before, and usually that might be
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: a short stand and then you can go back on
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: the road and you do what you do. But now
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: like you have to stay in one space, you have
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: to film, like you know, last night, you're a film
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: into midnight? Like what made you say I'm gonna do
• 46:39
  Speaker 1: this full time? From Power character? I mean, I'm a
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: Power fan, been a Power fan. So that's why I'm
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: on the show right now. Um, this character is so
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: much fun and it's very cathartic, Like I get to
• 46:52
  Speaker 1: just blow people away that I always wanted to blow
• 46:54
  Speaker 1: away in my mind and didn't forget about it when
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: I came home and I get cursed to do all
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: types of just crazy stuff, you know, So the art
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: is what makes you just say, you know, I'm gonna
• 47:06
  Speaker 1: stay up and I'm gonna do my job. Wait, when
• 47:09
  Speaker 1: you're acting, your picture ain't blowing away somebody else in
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: real life? Well whatever way, Well it's method acting. You
• 47:20
  Speaker 1: gotta do just some dark places. So whatever you have
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: to be a real place. If you got a real place,
• 47:25
  Speaker 1: whether it belonged to you with somebody else, visit that
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: place and make the character real. I go back and
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: visit horrible things that have happened in my life and wow,
• 47:36
  Speaker 1: and I just do you have time for yourself though?
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: Because it seems like that character is gonna continue to go.
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: That character's not going anywhere, seems like it's getting spinoffs
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: and all types of stuff. Do you have time for
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: you know what? Married time? Yeah? I take that married time.
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: You know, I'll be exhausted, but I get the time
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: I need. What did you learn about yourself after after
• 47:52
  Speaker 1: completing my life documentary? Man? That um, I'm a really
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: strong individual. Yeah, and it's gracious. I mean that that
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: documentary you forgett and I don't want to forget, but
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: you forget the influence when you start seeing the young
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: girls and saying they look up to you, and they
• 48:10
  Speaker 1: respect you. They've been through the things that you've been through,
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: And how did that make you feel when you see
• 48:13
  Speaker 1: because it was young girls that their mama had to
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: be playing your music, and how does that make you
• 48:17
  Speaker 1: feel beautiful? Because then I didn't know what anybody cared like,
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: I didn't know Alicia keys Kid, I didn't know nobody
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: get you know what, I didn't know nobody cared to see.
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: I didn't know that then whoever was out, what was
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: you know was doing and trying to be Like Mary J. Blige,
• 48:37
  Speaker 1: I was like it didn't matter because I didn't matter.
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: I just yeah, you understand what I'm saying. It was
• 48:43
  Speaker 1: just in your life and not understanding what you meant
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: to other people because you were just trying to survive,
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: like you said exactly, and make it through and do
• 48:51
  Speaker 1: your job and work and not even considering like these
• 48:54
  Speaker 1: people are coming up because sometimes people will be coming
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: up to you and it didn't even look like you
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: comprehend it, like how exciting it was? Yeah, because I
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: didn't know I deserved any of it. I didn't know
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: I was supposed to be praised. I didn't know I
• 49:07
  Speaker 1: was supposed to be loved. So I didn't know anybody
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: even cared. And you were demo yourself down, you said
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: in your own relationship, because you didn't want to shine too, right,
• 49:16
  Speaker 1: that's how you know. It's I just I didn't want,
• 49:20
  Speaker 1: you know, just like in the hood, I just didn't
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: want people messing with me. You know, you you get
• 49:24
  Speaker 1: too happy, or you get too brave or too bragged,
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: doocious you gotta fight somebody or you gotta you know,
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: this guy might start getting insecure because you think you beautiful.
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: And so that's those are the things I had to
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: lay down, like excuse my friend that I need to live,
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: I need to breathe. I gotta take my time in
• 49:43
  Speaker 1: my space for me. The hell with y'all. I suffered
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: too much for y'all. So there's no more that. So
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: even back in the day when when guys like Jay
• 49:51
  Speaker 1: would say I did songs with Mary Jay Blode, I
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: feel like he was saying that out of excitement. That
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: didn't do nothing for you a moment, Yeah, yeah for
• 49:59
  Speaker 1: a second, and then I'll be back to you know
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: what I mean. It was like, all right, that's so,
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: and then now what Yeah, the end of the documentary
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: is a new song. I never heard that song befo us.
• 50:08
  Speaker 1: I'm assuming it's new. It's new, Yeah, it's it's new.
• 50:11
  Speaker 1: With the documentary, Are you gonna do a new album?
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: Is that the process? Have you started working already or
• 50:16
  Speaker 1: I'm already in the process. I'm more already there. Maddison
• 50:20
  Speaker 1: Square Garden, I was talking about this right First, I
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: want to ask the room and that I want to
• 50:23
  Speaker 1: ask you marry Maddison Square Garden is sold out? You
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: got one song to before? What song you want to
• 50:27
  Speaker 1: hear married before? From me? Um? Either either My Life
• 50:31
  Speaker 1: the title track to My Life? Just one yeah, probably
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: the title track to My Life. That's a gospel record.
• 50:36
  Speaker 1: That record is about God. Come on you just one record, man,
• 50:40
  Speaker 1: that's it. I can't say just one record, come on ye,
• 50:44
  Speaker 1: come on ye. I don't know. That's all hard to
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: because I have a lot of great memories. It's like
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: a soundtrack to my life. So there's some good memories,
• 50:52
  Speaker 1: some bad ones too, to some do I want to
• 50:54
  Speaker 1: hear something that's like fun that was a great memory,
• 50:59
  Speaker 1: like my life because he helps me cry when I
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: need a good cry. Now, what would you before? I do?
• 51:04
  Speaker 1: Like be happy though that'll always be like my song
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: because I feel that one song got to perform, one
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: song sold out. What's the song you performing? My life?
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: My life? Yeah, that's the one man. That's why I
• 51:16
  Speaker 1: wonder even that about you. And you say, um, you know,
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: don't when you're feeling that, don't you have a fake it?
• 51:21
  Speaker 1: It's like, is that why you were like so closed
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: off maybe back in the day and interviews because you
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: didn't want to show you're such a great shooter. You
• 51:28
  Speaker 1: didn't want to show people what you was really going through.
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: I didn't want people to see me cry. I didn't
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: want to see people to see me smile. I don't
• 51:34
  Speaker 1: want people to see anything that could lead to them
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: thinking I'm soft in any way because I just didn't
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: trust people with my emotions and my feelings. I just
• 51:45
  Speaker 1: didn't trust them with that. Partly because as soon as
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: you open up, they pull a rock from under you.
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: You bust your head on the floor. So yeah, that's
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: what that was about. My last question, because I can
• 51:58
  Speaker 1: tell you ready to go, How would this whole more
• 52:01
  Speaker 1: healed version of Mary J. Blige tell younger Mary how
• 52:05
  Speaker 1: not to get in her way? Well, I always say
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: if she could if she can hear me, which I
• 52:09
  Speaker 1: don't think she could. It's two different marries. The younger
• 52:12
  Speaker 1: Mary is not going to listen to nobody, So all
• 52:16
  Speaker 1: the healed Mary definitely can't tell her what to do.
• 52:19
  Speaker 1: But if she would listen, I would just say, stop
• 52:22
  Speaker 1: being afraid of you. That's you. That big thing you're
• 52:25
  Speaker 1: feeling that you're running from, that's you. All right, well
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: a gentleman, Mary, Mary Jane mother. Congratulations are the documentary one?
• 52:35
  Speaker 1: We can't wait to hear more music. No, I love
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: you in a real way like your Your music has
• 52:42
  Speaker 1: been the soundtrack to my life in a in a real,
• 52:44
  Speaker 1: real way. And even now as I'm older, I understand
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: the music more so. A song like my life hits different.
• 52:51
  Speaker 1: A song like be happy when I'm you know, dealing
• 52:53
  Speaker 1: with the depression or something that hits different. So just
• 52:55
  Speaker 1: just thank you for being you. Yeah. Thanks. Not too
• 52:58

• 53:04
  Speaker 1: I perceived my flowers right now? Thank you? What can
• 53:08
  Speaker 1: we have the song? Can we play the song right now?
• 53:11
  Speaker 1: So the documentary on the documentary, No, that ain't that's
• 53:13
  Speaker 1: kind of song. What's the one you want us to play?
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: I don't have it, but when I have it, I
• 53:19
  Speaker 1: want to hear it. And it's coming. It's coming, and
• 53:22
  Speaker 1: it's Mary J. Blise. It's the Breakfast Club. Good Morning.
• 53:29
  Speaker 1: She's filling the team. This is the rumor report with
• 53:32
  Speaker 1: Angela Yee on the Breakfast Club. Well, Britney Spears just
• 53:38
  Speaker 1: had her day in court. She had her court hearing
• 53:41
  Speaker 1: yesterday and everyone's talking about this. She talked about her dad,
• 53:45
  Speaker 1: her management team, her conservatorship, which she wants to end now.
• 53:48
  Speaker 1: At first she didn't know that she could end it,
• 53:50
  Speaker 1: but now that she found out that she has the
• 53:52
  Speaker 1: ability to do that, she is finally being heard. Here's
• 53:55
  Speaker 1: what she said about how she is not okay after
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: I've lied and told the whole world I'm okay and
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: I'm happy. It's a lie. I thought I just maybe
• 54:03
  Speaker 1: I said that enough, maybe I might become happy because
• 54:06
  Speaker 1: I've been in denial, I've been in shock. I am traumatized.
• 54:10
  Speaker 1: I'm not happy. I can't sleep, I'm so angry it's insane,
• 54:14
  Speaker 1: and I'm depressed. I cry every day. And the reason
• 54:16
  Speaker 1: I'm telling you this is because I don't think how
• 54:18
  Speaker 1: the state of California can have all this written in
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: the court documents from the time I showed up and
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: do absolutely nothing. Just hire with my money another person
• 54:26
  Speaker 1: to keep and keep my dad on board. I just
• 54:28
  Speaker 1: want my life back. And it's been thirteen years and
• 54:30
  Speaker 1: it's enough. She's been under conservatorship since two thousand and eight,
• 54:34
  Speaker 1: with her father Jamie Spears as the conservator. Of her
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: sixty million dollar estate was also made public at her request,
• 54:42
  Speaker 1: and she addressed the court by a telephone, speaking for
• 54:44
  Speaker 1: about thirty minutes. Well, what is a conservatory? What is that?
• 54:48
  Speaker 1: In order for her to have that money? She has
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: to it's court ordered. So basically they tell her what
• 54:54
  Speaker 1: she can and can't do, and so they make kind
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: of the rules. It's kind of like having a Yeah,
• 55:00
  Speaker 1: but I thought they do that for kids. I until
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: you're a certain age to be in control your money,
• 55:04
  Speaker 1: not the rate mental star r Yeah, if you're not mentally.
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: I don't know if y'all saw that movie. I care
• 55:09
  Speaker 1: a lot on Netflix, but it's given me. Yes, I
• 55:12
  Speaker 1: was talking to Joey about it, who works here. It's
• 55:15
  Speaker 1: given us very much. Those vibes. Now, so she also
• 55:17
  Speaker 1: talked about being put on lithium. After I said no
• 55:20
  Speaker 1: to vegas, my therapist sat me down in a room
• 55:22
  Speaker 1: and said he had a million phone calls about how
• 55:24
  Speaker 1: I was not cooperating in the helsal's and I haven't
• 55:27
  Speaker 1: been taking my medication. All of this was a false
• 55:30
  Speaker 1: He immediately the next day put me on lithium. I
• 55:32
  Speaker 1: couldn't even have a conversation with my mom or dad
• 55:34
  Speaker 1: really about anything. There were six different nurses in my
• 55:37
  Speaker 1: homes and they wouldn't let me get in my car
• 55:39
  Speaker 1: to go anywhere. Not only did my family not do
• 55:42
  Speaker 1: a goddamn thing, my dad was all for it. He
• 55:44
  Speaker 1: was the one who approved all of it, all right.
• 55:49
  Speaker 1: So basically, she said she was forced to do her
• 55:51
  Speaker 1: Vegas residency. She said it was too much and the
• 55:54
  Speaker 1: lithium had a terrible effect on her. Her therapist was uncaring,
• 55:57
  Speaker 1: she said, even after she wanted to put an end,
• 56:00
  Speaker 1: they said she was being difficult, and she said her
• 56:03
  Speaker 1: dad didn't care. Neither did her family. She also talked
• 56:06
  Speaker 1: about not being in control of her own body and
• 56:08
  Speaker 1: having to be forced to be on birth control. I
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: want to be able to get married and have a baby,
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: I was told right now in the conservatorship, I'm not
• 56:16
  Speaker 1: able to get married or have a baby. I have
• 56:19
  Speaker 1: a ID and side of myself right now so I
• 56:23
  Speaker 1: don't get pregnant. I wanted to take the ID out
• 56:26
  Speaker 1: so I could start trying to have another baby, but
• 56:29
  Speaker 1: this so called team won't let me go to the
• 56:31
  Speaker 1: doctor to take it out because they don't want me
• 56:35
  Speaker 1: to have children any more children. Wow, this sounds really
• 56:40
  Speaker 1: like a lie. I feel really bad for all right now.
• 56:46
  Speaker 1: In addition to this, she talked about the rehab facility
• 56:49
  Speaker 1: that she was ordered to go to. I worked seven
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: days a week, no days off, which in California the
• 56:53
  Speaker 1: only similar thing to this is called sex trafficking. Making
• 56:56
  Speaker 1: anyone work work against their wheel, taking all their possessions way,
• 57:00
  Speaker 1: credit card, cash, phone, passport, card, and placing them in
• 57:02
  Speaker 1: a home where they work with the people who live
• 57:05
  Speaker 1: with them. They all lived in the house with me,
• 57:08
  Speaker 1: the nurses, the twenty four seven security. They watched me
• 57:11
  Speaker 1: changed every day naked, morning, noon and night. If I
• 57:13
  Speaker 1: didn't do any of my meetings and worked from eight
• 57:16
  Speaker 1: to six at night, which is ten hours a day,
• 57:18
  Speaker 1: seven days a week, no days off, I wouldn't be
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: able to see my kids or my boyfriend. Oh, I
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: can't imagine having to go through that now. She also
• 57:26
  Speaker 1: talked about the doctor that she had and how she
• 57:28
  Speaker 1: thanked God when he died and the clever step in
• 57:30
  Speaker 1: Westlake is identical to doctor Benson who died, the one
• 57:33
  Speaker 1: who illegally, yes one hundred percent abused me by the
• 57:35
  Speaker 1: treatment he gave me, and did he totally honest with
• 57:38
  Speaker 1: you when he passed away. I got all my knees
• 57:39
  Speaker 1: and thank God. In other words, my team is pushing
• 57:42
  Speaker 1: with pushing it with me again. I have trapped phobia
• 57:44
  Speaker 1: as being in a small rooms because they're trauma locking
• 57:46
  Speaker 1: me up and for four months in that place is
• 57:48
  Speaker 1: not okay for them to send me. Sorry, I'm going
• 57:50
  Speaker 1: fast to that small room like that twice a week
• 57:52
  Speaker 1: with another new therapist. I pay that I never even approved.
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: I don't like it. I don't want to do that.
• 58:00
  Speaker 1: She said to you once. Everyone in jail, my dad
• 58:03
  Speaker 1: and anyone involved in this conservativeship and my management who
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: played a huge role in punishing at me when I
• 58:08
  Speaker 1: said no, ma'am, they should be in jail. My precious
• 58:11
  Speaker 1: body who's worked for my dad for the past thirteen years,
• 58:14
  Speaker 1: trying to be so good and pretty, so perfect, when
• 58:17
  Speaker 1: he works me so hard, when I do everything I'm told.
• 58:20
  Speaker 1: In the state of California, allowed my ignorant father to
• 58:22
  Speaker 1: take his own daughter, who only has a role with
• 58:25
  Speaker 1: me if I work with him. They set back the
• 58:27
  Speaker 1: whole course and allowed him to do that to me.
• 58:29
  Speaker 1: That's given these people I've worked for way too much control.
• 58:34
  Speaker 1: All right, So the judge is gonna look to doctor,
• 58:36
  Speaker 1: psychiatrists and others who have evaluated her over the years
• 58:40
  Speaker 1: to see if they can end her conservatorship if it's
• 58:43
  Speaker 1: still necessary, if you've spent thirteen years, and I saw
• 58:46
  Speaker 1: a lot of people weighing in. Justin timber Lake said,
• 58:48
  Speaker 1: no one should ever be held against their will or
• 58:50
  Speaker 1: ever have to ask permission to access everything they've worked
• 58:53
  Speaker 1: so hard for. Jess and I send our love and
• 58:55
  Speaker 1: our absolute support to Brittany during this time. We hope
• 58:58
  Speaker 1: the courts and her family make this right and at
• 59:00
  Speaker 1: her live however she wants to live. Mariah said, we
• 59:02
  Speaker 1: love you, Britney, stay strong, Brandy said, sending on my
• 59:05
  Speaker 1: loving supports to Britney Spears. Andy Cohen hashtag free Brittany. Yeah,
• 59:08
  Speaker 1: I'm definitely sending her healing energy. But I mean, I couldn't.
• 59:12
  Speaker 1: I don't know, I couldn't come to a conclusion about
• 59:14
  Speaker 1: anything because like, yeah, we just don't know. That sounds
• 59:17
  Speaker 1: horrific though people watching you change it's true. Yeah, No,
• 59:22
  Speaker 1: we all know people that believe things, like we all
• 59:24
  Speaker 1: have friends and we all have a friend in this
• 59:26
  Speaker 1: room that has a similar family member that makes things
• 59:28
  Speaker 1: up in her mind and they believe it, and that
• 59:30
  Speaker 1: could be the situation. I'm saying. I'm not saying this
• 59:32
  Speaker 1: is the situation, but we don't know what's necessarily true.
• 59:36
  Speaker 1: I hope that Judge is able to get a therapist there,
• 59:38
  Speaker 1: a doctor there to really see what's going on in
• 59:40
  Speaker 1: that situation. It's gonna be a bunch of records of
• 59:42
  Speaker 1: that she's been going to that much therapy and seeing
• 59:44
  Speaker 1: a psychiatrists that long. It's gonna be a bunch of records.
• 59:46
  Speaker 1: And she's already done hearings. They just were not made public.
• 59:49
  Speaker 1: She requested for this one to be made public. And
• 59:52
  Speaker 1: I bet you if you talk to those people in
• 59:53
  Speaker 1: her family, they feel like they're protecting her from something.
• 59:55
  Speaker 1: You probably feel like they're protecting her from herself. I
• 59:57
  Speaker 1: don't know. Yeah, also getting paid. All right, well that
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 1: is your rumor report. The only thing that my heart
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 1: goes out to Brittany though this sounds like the way
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 1: that what she's describing is happening to her, the fact
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 1: that she can't make decisions about her own body. I
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 1: think that's awful. All right, all right, Charlomagne, Donkey today, Yeah,
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 1: donkey of today. Man, I don't really have an individual
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 1: that I'm giving a donkey of to day two, but
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 1: I'm using something I saw yesterday as a teachable moment.
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 1: So we'll talk about it for after that hour. All right,
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 1: we'll get to that next. It's the breakfast Club. Good morning,
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 1: the breakfast Club. Your morning's will never be the same. Hey,
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 1: it's Angela yee. Don't let weak care hold you back.
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 1: Carol's Daughter's got his strength collection supports here as it
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 1: gets longer. For here that's fifteen times stronger after one
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 1: use available at Carol's Daughter dot com. And you're a
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 1: local retailer, it's gonna be a dusty because right now
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 1: you want some grill. It's time for donkey of the day.
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 1: So if we ever feel I need to be a
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 1: doctor man with the heat. Did she get the lease?
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 1: I had become donkey of the day to practice club, bitches.
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 1: Donke here to day for Thursday, June twenty fourth is
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 1: a teachable moment. It's such a teachable moment that I
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 1: don't want to hand out donkey here to day to
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 1: an individual because it's bigger than anyone individual. Okay, it's
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 1: something that is impacting all of us. And I don't
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 1: know what we have to do to get out of
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 1: this mindset. I really don't. I don't care what your
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 1: race is, your gender is, your sexuality is, what religion
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 1: you are, what your financial status is. None of that
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 1: matters because we all have and all could be impacted
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 1: by what I want to talk about the day, and
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 1: that's social media. Okay. It's a reason I recommend books
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 1: like Digital Minimalism by Cal Newport to people. It's the
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 1: reason I recommend the book The Internet to the Internet
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 1: by Gopie last name I can't pronounce. I recommend these
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 1: books because it pains me when I care too much
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 1: about what the Internet thinks, and it pains me when
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 1: I see other people getting caught up in what the
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 1: Internet thinks too. The latest example I saw was yesterday
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 1: with Robert Griffin the Third Okay, the NFL player. Okay,
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 1: the headlines for this story are he Larry us By
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 1: the way, Black sports Online said Robert Griffin the Third
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 1: goes viral for telling people he's proud to have a
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 1: white wife with a booty. Larry Brown Sports said Robert
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 1: Griffin the Third since bizarrely racist tweet about his wife.
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 1: I didn't think it was racist, but whatever, total pro
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 1: sports headline was. Robert Griffin the Third says he was
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 1: pointing out that white women have ass cheeks after posting
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 1: his wife's booty. Somebody texted me this yesterday and I
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 1: had no idea what was going on, but I'm clear now.
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 1: Apparently RG three posted a video of his wife working
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 1: out with the caption, come on, bro, your wife is white.
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 1: Also very proud that my wife is white. Very random.
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 1: But he went on to clarify that he was getting
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 1: some nasty comments when he pointed pointed out his wife
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 1: was having a hard time finding filling out a sun
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 1: dress because her booty is too big, I don't know,
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 1: or finding a sun dress because her booty is too
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 1: big to show the video pointing out her cheeks and
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 1: that she was breaking the white woman's stereotype about them
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 1: not having a booty. Look your Twitter, your choice, okay,
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 1: your social media or your choice. I told y'all yesterday
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 1: we have this tool called a smartphone, and we got
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 1: access to all these platforms YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, you know
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 1: what they are, and it makes us want to say something.
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 1: We need content, whether you are a willing content creator
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 1: or just someone in this case like RG three, who
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 1: is constantly listening to people say things about him, so
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 1: you feel like you have to say something back. But
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 1: when it comes to some things, I have one question. Why,
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 1: RG three, that's your wife, who cares if the world
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 1: knows she got asks? Those cheeks are for you, okay,
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 1: and if you love it then it should not matter
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 1: who don't like it. Why are you allowing the world
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 1: to have an opinion about your wife? Not? Trust me,
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 1: I'm sure she's got her own social media. People know that's,
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 1: you know, AG three's wife, so they critique her already,
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 1: But why are you encouraging that. I know you're a
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 1: football player and football as a team sport, but man,
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 1: we as individuals have to remember we have nothing to
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 1: prove to anybody. We only play for ourselves. I'm not
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 1: even lying. This hurts my feelings because RG three or
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 1: thirty one years old, successful by all intents and purposes. Okay,
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 1: he's one in life. If he feels the need to
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 1: prove something on social media, if he feels the need
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 1: to prove something on social media to a bunch of
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 1: people he has never met in his life, imagine how
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 1: a kid feels. Let's imagine how a kid who hasn't
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 1: accomplished anything yet, just growing up, trying to figure things out.
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 1: Imagine how they feel. That's no way to live. This
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 1: is why I don't want my kids on social media,
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 1: because it's literally creating a generation of people who do
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 1: not think for themselves. People don't even formulate their own
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 1: thoughts anymore because they're too busy caring about what social
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 1: media thinks and whatever the popular opinion is online they
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 1: run with that. Do you know for years online they
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 1: said my wife was white? Did you ever see me
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 1: post a picture to prove other? You know why? Because
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 1: I don't care the truth, don't need no defense, only witnesses,
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 1: and the biggest witnesses me. A lie is a lie,
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 1: no matter how many people on social media believe it,
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 1: and the truth will be the truth regardless of who
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 1: says it isn't so when they come in at you.
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 1: Robert Griffin The third about your wife having an absence
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 1: of ass who cares as long as you know the truth? Okay,
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 1: this scares me because when does this need to prove something?
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 1: The social media stop. What if they would have said, hey,
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 1: your wife don't give good filatio, or you're gonna post
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 1: video proven you know that she does. I mean, I
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 1: mean this sincerely because it's bigger than Robert Griffin. The third, Okay,
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 1: how many of y'all are truly dictating your own existence online?
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 1: Are you really moving to the b to your own drum?
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 1: Are you being dictated by the crowd? I know it's hard, okay,
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 1: but don't follow the crowd. Let the crowd follow you. Hell,
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 1: I don't even want the crowd to follow me, Okay,
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 1: the way my anxiety is set up, I don't want
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 1: nobody following me because my anxiety makes me think I'm
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 1: always being followed. I just don't want social media to
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 1: drive us crazy. But maybe it already has. Okay. Social
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 1: media is a tool that we control. It shouldn't control us,
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 1: all right, because these people are savages. Don't give them
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 1: that kind of power. They are savages who don't care.
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 1: They don't care about you, They don't care about your wife.
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 1: You just the entertainment for the day. And please remember
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 1: that same social media crowd that will applaud your coordination
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 1: is the same crowd that will applaud your beheading. In fact,
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 1: they will be the ones that attempt to cut your
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 1: head off because people like a show. Stop entertaining the clowns.
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 1: Are you become a part of the circus. Please give
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 1: anyone who has ever fell victim to following the social
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 1: media crowd, which would be all of us the biggest

  Speaker 1: If you need relationship advice here now it's the breakfast Club.
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 1: Good morning. I'm gonna get some real advice with Angela
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 1: ye gets ask Ye morning. Everybody is dj Envy Angela Yee,
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 1: Charlomne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We're in
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 1: the middle of asking ye, good morning, good morning, good morning. Hey.
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 1: Can you take us on bluetooth for speaker please? Yes, sir, absolutely.
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 1: What's your question for you? Bro? Good morning, breakfast club.
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 1: So ye, My question is so, just recently, I'm in
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 1: a relationship with this what this beautiful woman. She's currently
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 1: going through a divorce right now and she was raised
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 1: by her soon to be ex husband. So I was
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 1: very angry. I tried to get her to go to
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 1: the cope. Um she didn't want to do it. So
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 1: I'm trying to figure out what should I do? How
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 1: should I feel? Okay, so I understand. So you said
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 1: she was by her soon to be ex husband. You
• 1:12:02
  Speaker 1: want her to go to the police to report this,
• 1:12:04
  Speaker 1: and she's not willing to do that right now, and
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 1: you know that's a difficult decision. Again, it is her decision.
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 1: But what you can do is be as supportive as possible.
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 1: I think you should encourage her to talk to someone
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 1: like a therapist or a sexual assault counselor. I know
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 1: they have the National Sexual Assault Hotline that numbers eight
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 1: hundred and six to five six. Hope if she wants
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 1: to speak to someone, and that way she can have
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 1: a record of it, because the worst thing you want
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 1: to do is not be able to bring this up
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 1: later if she should change her mind. But I do
• 1:12:33
  Speaker 1: think speaking to a counselor or a therapist will help
• 1:12:36
  Speaker 1: her understand that it is in no way her fault
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 1: because she might be having some feeling. A lot of
• 1:12:42
  Speaker 1: times when things happen, you think about what could I
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 1: have done differently? Is this my fault? How could this
• 1:12:47
  Speaker 1: have been prevented? Did I put myself in a bad situation?
• 1:12:50
  Speaker 1: Am I going to ruin his life? If they have
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 1: kids together. Women think about all of those things and
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 1: a therapist might help her to see things from a
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 1: different point of view and understand that it was in
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 1: no way at all her fault. And another thing you
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 1: should encourage her to do is write everything down. That
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 1: way she can remember every single detail in case there's
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 1: an instance where she does decide that she wants to
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 1: go to the police or report this, she'll have all
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 1: of that information. But speaking to a counselor speaking to
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 1: a therapist that can help her see things who's an
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 1: expert from a different point of view, I think would
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 1: be one of the most helpful things you can do,
• 1:13:20
  Speaker 1: because again, you want to be there to support and
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 1: comfort her. You want her to be able to trust you,
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 1: but you don't want to make her feel ashamed or
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 1: have any type of judgment on whatever her decision is.
• 1:13:29
  Speaker 1: Got it, and I try to suggest some of those
• 1:13:33
  Speaker 1: things to her, But I think that the problem arose
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 1: where she didn't want to be the demise or be
• 1:13:39
  Speaker 1: a victim, and it was kind of hard for her
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 1: to em and grasp the concept of what happened. And
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 1: when we had the conversation, it was kind of like
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 1: she she was kind of in denial. That's a problem.
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 1: Now we were running into but and she's a survivor,
• 1:13:54
  Speaker 1: and she's a survivor we like to say survivor, so
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 1: not a victim. But she survived this, and we want
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 1: her to continue to thrive and to actually deal with
• 1:14:03
  Speaker 1: whatever she might be feeling with that. And that might
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 1: be something that she needs to talk to somebody about. Again,
• 1:14:09
  Speaker 1: if right now she's not ready to go to the police,
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 1: I would encourage her to speak to someone and even
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 1: you can call right because then they might be able
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 1: to give you the tools that you would need to
• 1:14:18
  Speaker 1: be able to talk to your girlfriend to better be
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 1: able to help her, because that's a traumatic experience. You
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 1: don't even know how this might affect her later, but
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 1: you want her to be able to have whatever options
• 1:14:28
  Speaker 1: available to her in case she needs those. Okay, thank
• 1:14:31
  Speaker 1: you so much. I love you, guys. I listen me
• 1:14:34
  Speaker 1: all every morning. But thank you again so much. All right,
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 1: thank you, and we commend you and appreciate you for
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 1: being such a support to your girlfriend at a time
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 1: like this. Absolutely gotta be okay, you two ask ye oh,
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 1: that's tough, all right? Eight hundred five five one five
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 1: one Now we got rooms all the way. Now imagine
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 1: that your house is so huge you didn't even know
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 1: you had a tennis court until quarantine will tell you
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 1: you who had this issue. All right, we'll get into
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 1: that next. The breakfast by the breakfast club just got
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 1: you looking so disgusting. She was like, I'm trying to
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 1: kiss her. Listen to my attention in here right. Yes,
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 1: all I know is I'd just be trying to do
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 1: my work. And then Charlotte is like, have you ever
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 1: had a penis that was so big that he walked
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 1: right in here? He says, you know you ever had
• 1:15:45
  Speaker 1: a penis so big in your face that you just
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 1: gotta tell the guy did say that. I told y'all
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 1: the story about a guy who caught who caught his
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 1: girl cheating on him. And when the guy, he said,
• 1:15:55
  Speaker 1: when the guy jumped up, his penis was down in
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 1: his ankles and he was like, man, just leave, man,
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 1: jell my house. That's what I'm saying. But when I'm
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 1: doing work, all I heard you come in the room
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 1: and say have you ever had a guy who's said
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 1: when you came in the first time the second time,
• 1:16:11
  Speaker 1: I'm like, all right, let me get back to work.
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 1: So let's talk about ludicrous. He was talking to Ellen
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 1: on The Ellen Show, and he was talking about not
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 1: even knowing all the things that he had on his property.
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 1: He has twenty two acres of land and he's not
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 1: there a lot, and he's been finding things on his home.
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 1: So because of quarantine, this is probably the best property
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 1: to quarantine at besides your house. Of course, I have
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 1: like twenty two acres of land. Um. You know, I'm
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 1: so used to traveling and never being here, so I'm
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 1: finally able to enjoy the fruits of my labor. I'm
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 1: finding things in my home and all my property that
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 1: I never even knew were there. I actually have a
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 1: Twitter sport, if you could believe it or not. I
• 1:16:45
  Speaker 1: didn't even know that this was on this property of
• 1:16:48
  Speaker 1: free houses, um saunas that I'm finding. I believe it now. Yeah,
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 1: And at first you said it was Cato's lying cats.
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 1: I know as a huge property with a bunch of acres,
• 1:17:02
  Speaker 1: So it makes sense now, Yeah, shout to Ludacris. He's
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 1: definitely gonna have a car in the car Chella car showers.
• 1:17:09
  Speaker 1: That's why. Yeah, first it was Capp Now I was
• 1:17:12
  Speaker 1: awfulgot he got a car to car, But Ludacris, I
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 1: can see that happened to. Boosey is another person that
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 1: he has a lot of acres. He just bought more
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 1: acres that you could see it like, damn, I didn't
• 1:17:20
  Speaker 1: know that was on his property. Two Chains is another
• 1:17:22
  Speaker 1: one that has a lot of acres, so I can
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 1: see that was Yeah. In Brooklyn and my Brownstone, I'm
• 1:17:26
  Speaker 1: finding things I never knew exist. Where did you find mouse? Roach? Grab?
• 1:17:35
  Speaker 1: That's what you think of Brooklyn Brownstones if we haven't.
• 1:17:38
  Speaker 1: I've never had a mouse in my house. I have
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 1: never had a mouse in my house. We've had a
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 1: couple of roaches. I'm not gonna lie, but I do
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 1: have an exterminated that comes quarterly. Can't help it. But
• 1:17:52
  Speaker 1: all I'm saying is, yes, there's things I've discovered in
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 1: my all right now, Ebony K. Williams is talking to
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 1: the Jasmine Brand and she's talking about people being really
• 1:18:03
  Speaker 1: critical of her and the race conversations that she's been
• 1:18:06
  Speaker 1: having on the show and the editing. Here's what you
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 1: have to say about editing on Real Housewives of New Yorker.
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 1: She's the only black woman on Real Housewives of New
• 1:18:13
  Speaker 1: York Ever in that franchise, you know, I have to say,
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 1: to the editor's credit, so far, it has been a
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 1: very accurate depiction. They have not cut anything that I
• 1:18:23
  Speaker 1: would deem essential. Now, obviously the conversation where the next
• 1:18:27
  Speaker 1: episode we're all sitting in the circle of ramanas and
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 1: we're going through why it is unacceptable to call a
• 1:18:33
  Speaker 1: black woman angry and all the back A lot was
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 1: cut from that, and some of what was cut was
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 1: a conversation we had around white fragility, So you know
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 1: it was it was much more productive than the edit
• 1:18:45
  Speaker 1: show because we talked for longer. Right, I'm sure they
• 1:18:48
  Speaker 1: couldn't show all that. I actually watched that episode where
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 1: she was talking about her white fragility and they were
• 1:18:53
  Speaker 1: mad at Ebeney Kay Williams. They were having a conversation
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 1: and whenever Kay Williams raises her voice a little bit,
• 1:18:58
  Speaker 1: she's angry black woman. But other people do it, it's
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 1: no issue, all right. Now, here's what you have to
• 1:19:03
  Speaker 1: say about people who thinks that she brings up a
• 1:19:05
  Speaker 1: race too much on the show. Not rob. This is
• 1:19:08
  Speaker 1: my work, So it's not that any other black woman
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 1: would do it like I do it, And by all means,
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 1: I invite other black women to join this platform. I
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 1: am an active recruitment of it, and I don't know
• 1:19:21
  Speaker 1: if I'll be back for another season. I don't know
• 1:19:23
  Speaker 1: if I'll be invited, and I don't know if I'll accepted.
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 1: They were allowed to have an all white, pretty ridiculous
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 1: show for twelve years. But now I'm here and listen,
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 1: I've got the one bringing these issues up. The only
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 1: thing I do bring up a lot is black excellence.
• 1:19:40
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's hard enough to bring up race on
• 1:19:42
  Speaker 1: the show when you're the only black woman on the show.
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 1: And if you know Ebony, that's who she is. You
• 1:19:46
  Speaker 1: know she's a black woman. She's attorney who shows up
• 1:19:48
  Speaker 1: with her unapologetically black self at all times. I don't
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 1: think that most of them, except for Leah, even really
• 1:19:54
  Speaker 1: no black people. I can totally see that. And there's
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 1: woman on each other. I guess she used still work
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 1: for to work pop for somebody. But yeah, she always
• 1:20:03
  Speaker 1: sounds crazy. I know they had a conversation one time
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 1: about race. She was like, yeah, I know black people
• 1:20:08
  Speaker 1: worked for Puff. Yeah yeah. I mean he was like, no,
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 1: you don't know black people because you worked for Puff.
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 1: We'll make sure you listen to the holding Court podcast
• 1:20:14
  Speaker 1: with Ebony Kay Williams and Dustin Ross on The Black
• 1:20:16
  Speaker 1: Affect i Heeart Radio podcast network, available everywhere you listened
• 1:20:19
  Speaker 1: to podcasts. Yes and shout out to my Boo, dust
• 1:20:21
  Speaker 1: and too. I just saw him at the screening for
• 1:20:22
  Speaker 1: Zola that we had all right now. Scottie Pippen was
• 1:20:25
  Speaker 1: on the Dan Lebottarde Show and he was talking about
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 1: Michael Jordan cheating to win bets. You know, he's highly competitive.
• 1:20:32
  Speaker 1: Everybody talks about that and they say there's some instances
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 1: where he allegedly cheated to win some random prop bets.
• 1:20:38
  Speaker 1: Here is what Scottie Pippen had to say. He would
• 1:20:41
  Speaker 1: get the bag attendants at the airline. He would pay
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 1: them so his bag would come out first and he
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 1: would win money from suckers. You didn't know he was
• 1:20:48
  Speaker 1: doing that. I'm gonna go against that. It's say Michael
• 1:20:52
  Speaker 1: Jordan had his own beautiful bags. At this time, we
• 1:20:55
  Speaker 1: didn't have team bags. So when you saw a bag
• 1:20:58
  Speaker 1: come on and it had to jump man on it.
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 1: I'm sure if those guys working at the airport that
• 1:21:03
  Speaker 1: was the first bag that they grab so he had
• 1:21:06
  Speaker 1: an advantage, But I don't think it was something that
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 1: he intensively did, but I will say that he cheated
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 1: on a few of his dests. He would bet on
• 1:21:15
  Speaker 1: things like whose bag would come out first? That's hilarious.
• 1:21:18
  Speaker 1: That's a competitive that has to be exhausted being around
• 1:21:23
