- 7:27Speaker 3: I mean, first it we started this when we were
- 7:29Speaker 3: making the album Made a Little Watch twenty eighteen, twenty eighteen,
- 7:32Speaker 3: So this was kind of like to bring into that era,
- 7:37Speaker 3: and it just made sense. It just really made sense,
- 7:40Speaker 3: like thinking about everything that we kind of went through
- 7:42Speaker 3: and survived, the Lord had to be watching over us.
- 7:45Speaker 3: It was the next relation. So now, man, that was
- 7:49Speaker 3: just kind of felt this felt like a conclusion of
- 7:51Speaker 3: that chapter. And yeah, five years in the making, man,
- 7:54Speaker 3: So it's out now on YouTube.
- 7:56Speaker 8: So you got to college and you guys met each other,
- 7:58Speaker 8: So talk about that process how you guys met.
- 8:00Speaker 6: I know a lot of this is actually in the documentary.
- 8:03Speaker 11: But how you guys met and but attracted you guys
- 8:05Speaker 11: together and then you started this rap group that became
- 8:08Speaker 11: Underground Legends.
- 8:10Speaker 3: Man, it was it was very organic. I met Pool
- 8:14Speaker 3: well first, I met ninth we met, Uh we met,
- 8:18Speaker 3: I think I met. We met first ninety eight, Yeah,
- 8:20Speaker 3: we met, yeah, ninety eight. Yeah, so yeah, we met
- 8:23Speaker 3: through a mutual friend. Knife was on campus and he
- 8:27Speaker 3: was we was moving in the dorm. Like we saw
- 8:30Speaker 3: each other from the dorm and uh over Source magazine.
- 8:33Speaker 3: We started chopping up all this is in the dock.
- 8:35Speaker 3: But long story short, we basically just kind of started,
- 8:39Speaker 3: you know, working together. This was at a time when
- 8:42Speaker 3: you know, it was at the time this is like
- 8:44Speaker 3: ninety eight, so this is when No Limit is like
- 8:47Speaker 3: killing everything, especially up. Yeah, so aheb see you No
- 8:51Speaker 3: Limit at a like the Ghetto d album dropped my
- 8:53Speaker 3: freshman year.
- 8:54Speaker 1: That was all you heard in every room, like we
- 8:56Speaker 1: was bumping that none stuff.
- 8:58Speaker 3: The body made listen what listen we read Ghetto Dope.
- 9:04Speaker 3: So but so everybody was pumping that. So if you
- 9:06Speaker 3: were a kid that was into like raucous or soundbomb,
- 9:10Speaker 3: like you know, meeting someone else that was into that
- 9:12Speaker 3: that was kind of rare, you know what I mean.
- 9:14Speaker 3: So when you met somebody that was on that same wave,
- 9:16Speaker 3: I it's like, oh, I found my people. So we
- 9:19Speaker 3: just kind of linked up and just started making records.
- 9:22Speaker 6: And people out there.
- 9:23Speaker 11: When he said Ruckus Ruckus record, you got to tell
- 9:25Speaker 11: him because someentializer, Yeah, because this was the label that
- 9:29Speaker 11: you know, I would see lyrical, miracle, spiritualentual, criminals, that
- 9:37Speaker 11: type of thing.
- 9:38Speaker 6: He can't help it break down because they said Rucus.
- 9:41Speaker 8: Somebody might not know what it was. You know, it
- 9:44Speaker 8: was very much.
- 9:45Speaker 3: They were like it was an underground label, but it
- 9:47Speaker 3: was you know, I mean most quality. You know, it
- 9:52Speaker 3: was like pretty much eminem was on Rocket Soundbomb.
- 9:56Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 9:57Speaker 3: So so they were just you know, putting out amazing
- 9:59Speaker 3: stuff that we really enjoyed. And so we just kind
- 10:01Speaker 3: of started making records, put some stuff up on the internet, and.
- 10:06Speaker 12: Yeah, you sound is like today, But I don't know,
- 10:09Speaker 12: how would you describe it sound today?
- 10:11Speaker 6: Like now, it's not the.
- 10:12Speaker 1: Same, it's not the same, but it's still us. It's
- 10:15Speaker 1: still us.
- 10:16Speaker 8: It's weird.
- 10:17Speaker 3: It's like our sound has evolved musically, but it's still
- 10:21Speaker 3: sound like Little Brothers. Yeah, like one of it I
- 10:24Speaker 3: had after our last album came out maylod Watch, and
- 10:27Speaker 3: then we just put out two singles last October October
- 10:31Speaker 3: with Wish Me Well in Glory, Glory September September, September,
- 10:34Speaker 3: My Bad. And one of the biggest compliments we got
- 10:38Speaker 3: was that somebody said, yo, I can make an LB
- 10:41Speaker 3: playlist from y'all stuff twenty years ago to now, and
- 10:44Speaker 3: it sounds like y'all haven't missed the beat.
- 10:45Speaker 6: I can tell that.
- 10:46Speaker 3: It's dated, it doesn't sound it still sounds timeless, and
- 10:50Speaker 3: that was something I think we always strive for. So
- 10:52Speaker 3: that's if I had describe it, I would just say
- 10:53Speaker 3: it's timeless.
- 10:54Speaker 11: But you guys also came out in the era where
- 10:56Speaker 11: the DJ in the producer was part of the group, right, yeah, yeah, sure,
- 10:59Speaker 11: but it was of course run dmcj A, J Fresh
- 11:02Speaker 11: Prince and Jazzy Jaff and Ninth Wonder was part of
- 11:15Speaker 11: Little Brother in the beginning. Yeah he's not here now,
- 11:17Speaker 11: So what's the relationship with Ninth Wonder? Is there no
- 11:19Speaker 11: more relationship?
- 11:21Speaker 3: There's no more relationship, but there's no no I mean
- 11:24Speaker 3: we talk about it in the doc, but now we're
- 11:25Speaker 3: just separate.
- 11:26Speaker 1: Entities.
- 11:26Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying that we came in the
- 11:28Speaker 3: game together, but we're a little brother, he's ninth Wonder
- 11:31Speaker 3: and we're just separate entity that we coexist peacefully, you
- 11:34Speaker 3: know what I mean.
- 11:34Speaker 1: And that's just what it is.
- 11:36Speaker 9: But participating the doctor, but I mean, this is the
- 11:38Speaker 9: little brother's story. That's a that's a question for him, yeah,
- 11:43Speaker 9: you know, but like I would like to have heard
- 11:45Speaker 9: his perspective of it now, is what did y'all reach
- 11:47Speaker 9: out to it? We absolutely, yeah, we reached out, you
- 11:50Speaker 9: know what I'm saying. Made it clear that you know,
- 11:51Speaker 9: it wasn't this wasn't gonna be a hit piece. We
- 11:53Speaker 9: wasn't coming for nobody next.
- 11:55Speaker 3: You know, we're just telling our story in just a beautiful,
- 11:57Speaker 3: honest way, and he just shows me not to participate.
- 12:00Speaker 1: And that's his right too.
- 12:01Speaker 9: I feel like y'all set them up nights, especially when
- 12:02Speaker 9: you first told the early story about Uh.
- 12:05Speaker 6: I forgot what album it was, but it was an album.
- 12:07Speaker 1: It was awful.
- 12:08Speaker 9: I feel like that get produced by DJ Premier and
- 12:10Speaker 9: he was like, Yo, that's what I want to be
- 12:12Speaker 9: one of y'all encourage.
- 12:12Speaker 6: I'm like, yo, you can be that absolutely.
- 12:14Speaker 1: Absolutely.
- 12:15Speaker 3: Yeah, man, we were always I mean we're coming up.
- 12:17Speaker 3: I mean, you gotta keep in mind, like, dude, we
- 12:20Speaker 3: like nineteen twenty years old, you know what I'm saying, Like,
- 12:22Speaker 3: I mean, we you know, we're just trying to figure
- 12:25Speaker 3: out let alone, trying to figure out how to be artists.
- 12:27Speaker 1: Figure how to be men. Yeah, you know what I mean.
- 12:29Speaker 3: Like, so, you know, trying to figure out all that
- 12:31Speaker 3: stuff at the same time. I mean, man, it's you know,
- 12:34Speaker 3: it's it's tough. So but yeah, but we tried to
- 12:36Speaker 3: tell the story just as honestly as you know, as
- 12:38Speaker 3: we could. And uh but you know, we can't speak
- 12:41Speaker 3: for another person. We can only tell our experience. And
- 12:43Speaker 3: so he chose not to and that's his right. You
- 12:45Speaker 3: see evolution in it. I mean you see dark skinned
- 12:48Speaker 3: Leonard in there.
- 12:50Speaker 6: Absolutely, you see.
- 12:55Speaker 8: Like that sounds like something.

- 14:34Speaker 3: it was amazing just to know that, you know, one
- 14:37Speaker 3: of your homies can make a beat on his laptop
- 14:41Speaker 3: and it ends up with jay Z rapping over.
- 14:43Speaker 1: I mean, it was like, oh my god, like what
- 14:45Speaker 1: all right?
- 14:46Speaker 8: We got more with Little brother when we come back,
- 14:47Speaker 8: so don't move.
- 14:48Speaker 6: It's to Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club.
- 14:54Speaker 11: Everybody was still kicking it with Little Brothers, DJ n V,
- 14:57Speaker 11: Jess hilarious, Charlamagne, God, they're in the building.
- 15:00Speaker 12: Just how important is like awards to you, like and
- 15:04Speaker 12: because you guys are very very very stern on who
- 15:07Speaker 12: y'all are. Yeah, that and like you said earlier, you
- 15:09Speaker 12: don't know who you are is conducive to some shit
- 15:12Speaker 12: like this or you know, especially nowadays and the thirst
- 15:15Speaker 12: and universus hunger. So how important are awards shows and
- 15:19Speaker 12: like getting awards to it?
- 15:22Speaker 1: Like man, I was, I'll go first.
- 15:24Speaker 3: I was nominated my other group, the Foreign Exchange R
- 15:27Speaker 3: and B group, we were nominated for a Grammy in
- 15:30Speaker 3: twenty ten and I had the opportunity to go to
- 15:34Speaker 3: the Grammys and really see what that experience was.
- 15:37Speaker 1: And I think having that experience just showed me like, yeah,
- 15:41Speaker 1: it's kind of a racket.
- 15:42Speaker 3: Basically, I'm just keeping it in the band. I mean,
- 15:45Speaker 3: it was you know, it was great to be honored.
- 15:46Speaker 3: But again this is just the behind the scenes stuff
- 15:49Speaker 3: that people don't get, you know what I mean. You
- 15:51Speaker 3: know when you go to these shows first and foremost,
- 15:55Speaker 3: you know, at least at that time, you know you
- 15:57Speaker 3: you still gotta buy tickets, you still gotta pay for
- 16:01Speaker 3: Like this don't come with a check at all. You
- 16:03Speaker 3: can get out there and you can try to make
- 16:04Speaker 3: something shake on your own if you want to do
- 16:06Speaker 3: like I know the Roots they do their Grammy Jam
- 16:08Speaker 3: session every year whatever, So if you want to kind
- 16:11Speaker 3: of do that, you can. But generally speaking, just as
- 16:14Speaker 3: a nominee, like everything is on you.
- 16:16Speaker 8: So this is you know, you gotta pay to go
- 16:18Speaker 8: to the Grammys if you're nominated.
- 16:20Speaker 1: Yeah, you.
- 16:24Speaker 6: Tickets.
- 16:24Speaker 1: Once you get the ticket, you get tickets for you.
- 16:27Speaker 1: So at the time and when they get you some
- 16:29Speaker 1: discount tickets.
- 16:30Speaker 9: Right.
- 16:30Speaker 3: So it's like so if it's me and you are
- 16:32Speaker 3: me and him is Grammy nominated, It's like Okay, y'all
- 16:34Speaker 3: get free tickets to the show, but anyone you want to.
- 16:37Speaker 2: Bring gotta pay.
- 16:39Speaker 3: Y'all gotta pay, and we'll let you get it for
- 16:41Speaker 3: half off. But you still got to pay half off still,
- 16:43Speaker 3: like one hundred dollars. Oh no, no, no, no, no,
- 16:46Speaker 3: not at the time.
- 16:46Speaker 1: But I did it.
- 16:48Speaker 3: Well, I know when it is when dream Bill was
- 16:51Speaker 3: nominated and Luke went, he got a ticket. I think
- 16:55Speaker 3: Dog got a ticket. And I think any extra tickets
- 16:57Speaker 3: would have been like one hundred dollars or something.
- 17:00Speaker 1: It might have been more. I don't remember. I'm that.
- 17:03Speaker 12: I know that it was even for the bet tables
- 17:05Speaker 12: at some point, like you had to pay. I remember
- 17:06Speaker 12: I wanted to go one year and I had to pay,
- 17:08Speaker 12: like it was like three forty or something like that.
- 17:10Speaker 6: I didn't pay.
- 17:12Speaker 1: Yes, So we might have been getting super dupe, you
- 17:14Speaker 1: know at the time when I went.
- 17:16Speaker 3: At the time when we went, the tickets for the Grammys,
- 17:18Speaker 3: and again, this is twenty ten, so you know, I
- 17:20Speaker 3: don't know what is now, but yeah, it's twenty ten.
- 17:22Speaker 3: Like tickets for the Grammys twelve hundred dollars a piece,
- 17:25Speaker 3: and so in order for us to go, you know,
- 17:27Speaker 3: what I mean. We met me and Nick Nicko let
- 17:29Speaker 3: my partner shots to him. We went and so our
- 17:32Speaker 3: tickets were free. But then every one else, like we brought,
- 17:35Speaker 3: you know, family, everybody, that was six hundred a pop.
- 17:39Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.
- 17:40Speaker 3: So that's twelve hundred one tickets. Then you got you know, hotels,
- 17:43Speaker 3: flights like you know, y'all buy clothes.
- 17:45Speaker 1: Everything.
- 17:45Speaker 3: We had to pay like a pr person, you know
- 17:48Speaker 3: what I'm saying, to like walk to talk about, to
- 17:51Speaker 3: walk you the red carpet, to talk of your nomination
- 17:54Speaker 3: and everything, and you know, and I've never like we
- 17:57Speaker 3: never talked about it. You know, it was something that
- 17:59Speaker 3: we didn't just have toime to get into the dock.
- 18:00Speaker 3: But like, man, after I came back from the Grammys,
- 18:03Speaker 3: I had to take out like a personal loans. I'm like, God, damn,
- 18:05Speaker 3: I don spit by damn eight thousand dollars like this,
- 18:07Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying. And so so for me
- 18:10Speaker 3: so to rich a question with the Awards, I think
- 18:13Speaker 3: that and just in my experience it was I was
- 18:16Speaker 3: glad I got to see it, but ultimately I'm just like.
- 18:21Speaker 1: Nah, I don't Yeah, I'm good. I don't care.
- 18:23Speaker 2: It plays the image.
- 18:25Speaker 6: It plays image.
- 18:26Speaker 3: Yeah, and I mean listen, it's all you know, to
- 18:28Speaker 3: be nominated for a Grammy, like to be you know,
- 18:31Speaker 3: amongst you know, to sit amongst you know, be in
- 18:33Speaker 3: that room and see it. Like I'm watching the show
- 18:36Speaker 3: and it's like Kenny g Is like standing right there,
- 18:39Speaker 3: like same hair, like same everything. And that's another thing
- 18:42Speaker 3: too with the Grammys, dude specifically, like y'all watch it
- 18:45Speaker 3: on TV at home and it's like three hours.
- 18:48Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying.
- 18:49Speaker 1: It's not three hours, and it's longer.
- 18:51Speaker 3: It's longer and with no and you it ain't no.
- 18:54Speaker 3: At the time when we went, the Staples Center was
- 18:57Speaker 3: like closing down. So like they have like the pre
- 19:00Speaker 3: Grammy brunch before and you know, you get a little
- 19:03Speaker 3: food whatever, and then they take you over to the
- 19:05Speaker 3: main hall to the Grammy ceremony, and all the vendors
- 19:09Speaker 3: in the Staples Center they shutting down, so it's no
- 19:12Speaker 3: food for hours. It was like one dude we caught
- 19:15Speaker 3: that had like the little uh he had like some
- 19:18Speaker 3: candy and he had like you know, little snick of
- 19:20Speaker 3: bars and damn Eminem's. So we bought like a couple
- 19:23Speaker 3: like a bag of Eminem's and some snickers were sitting
- 19:25Speaker 3: in there.
- 19:26Speaker 1: Goddamn taking the Eminem's.
- 19:27Speaker 3: Passings now, and I'm like, this is supposed to be
- 19:29Speaker 3: music great this night, and even got them Eminem's in
- 19:31Speaker 3: the Staples Center, not when we went. I'm just telling
- 19:35Speaker 3: I've never been to the Grammys, but I've been to
- 19:37Speaker 3: a BT hip Hop Awards.
- 19:39Speaker 12: I know.
- 19:41Speaker 1: That was about them recording. That was about five hours
- 19:43Speaker 1: and I.
- 19:44Speaker 6: Was like, no food, we went, I walked out. I
- 19:49Speaker 6: left taking too long. Man had to go, oh my.
- 19:52Speaker 11: God, he really left like we supposed to present. He
- 19:54Speaker 11: was like, I'm giving y'all ten minutes there all day.
- 19:58Speaker 1: Was like, nah, that's.
- 19:59Speaker 9: Really I'm like, you know, I'm like, yeah, I'm not
- 20:03Speaker 9: beating none of that stuff, no, man, And I mean
- 20:06Speaker 9: like for me, you know.
- 20:08Speaker 1: Yeah, it'd be cool to be nominated for a Grammy.
- 20:10Speaker 1: I ain't never been nominated.
- 20:11Speaker 3: But at the end of the days, I can't be
- 20:14Speaker 3: somewhere too long and not just say what I need
- 20:16Speaker 3: to say. So listen, I just don't go to places
- 20:20Speaker 3: where I'm going to be there a long time because
- 20:22Speaker 3: you might have to say something. It might have to
- 20:23Speaker 3: say something and let me tell you the truth. Yeah,
- 20:26Speaker 3: and they're learning kind of learning what all this is,
- 20:29Speaker 3: you know what I mean, Like it's a campaign.
- 20:31Speaker 1: It's a campaign.
- 20:32Speaker 3: It's not a meritocracy like the minute you and that
- 20:34Speaker 3: was I guess the thing for me. But once I
- 20:36Speaker 3: saw that, you know, it was really you know, it's
- 20:39Speaker 3: super political, it's super you know who you know, like
- 20:42Speaker 3: it's a lot of those things. But you know, for
- 20:45Speaker 3: for for me, all I cared about was just making
- 20:48Speaker 3: the music. And you know, if my music is standing
- 20:51Speaker 3: up against somebody, you know, just judging on the basis
- 20:54Speaker 3: of the music. Once you're getting all this other, it's
- 20:56Speaker 3: just like again it was educational. It's like, Okay, I
- 20:58Speaker 3: know that's what it is. Now, all right, cool, I'm
- 21:01Speaker 3: good on it, you know what I mean. And that's
- 21:02Speaker 3: the thing I want to make clear. It's not that
- 21:04Speaker 3: we don't care. We just understand what it is and
- 21:07Speaker 3: what it's gonna take if you want to make that run.
- 21:09Speaker 3: It's like running for president, you.
- 21:11Speaker 1: Know what I mean.
- 21:11Speaker 6: Will we ever get a fonte Pool Knife wonder reunion? Nah, damn, damn.
- 21:18Speaker 8: Didn't even think about it. It was like maybe there
- 21:20Speaker 8: was a possibility a couple of years.
- 21:23Speaker 6: Why why Like they don't know, they don't understand, you
- 21:28Speaker 6: know what from the.
- 21:29Speaker 8: That's so you gotta watch the die.
- 21:31Speaker 9: It's in the doc I mean we talk about everything,
- 21:33Speaker 9: but like it don't seem like it's none of y'all
- 21:36Speaker 9: can't reconcile.
- 21:36Speaker 11: It seems like they could be like at least maybe it's.
- 21:39Speaker 8: Not it's not.
- 21:40Speaker 1: It's not even it's not even thinking about reconciling anything.
- 21:44Speaker 10: It's just.

- 23:00Speaker 11: this weekend.
- 23:01Speaker 6: Yes, So what happened in Atlanta this weekend?
- 23:03Speaker 12: One of my friends called me and told me that
- 23:05Speaker 12: he was creeping out of chair convention and I was like, Oh,
- 23:07Speaker 12: that's because his family is there. He has, you know,
- 23:09Speaker 12: fifteen year old and a wife. And he was like
- 23:11Speaker 12: a wife. Oh he was low key giving because I
- 23:13Speaker 12: spoke to him and he was very much you know,
- 23:14Speaker 12: trying to lookey, give like flirt with him. That's what
- 23:17Speaker 12: he was insinuating. And he was like when I told
- 23:19Speaker 12: him that he had a wife, he was so disappointed.
- 23:22Speaker 12: He was like, see that these these married men be
- 23:25Speaker 12: given mixed signals.
- 23:26Speaker 6: So what mixed signals? Just because you nice to a human.
- 23:30Speaker 11: It seems like you do this because we have a
- 23:32Speaker 11: young lady on the phone or maybe a man I
- 23:33Speaker 11: don't want to. I don't want to let me see
- 23:36Speaker 11: and he and she said she met Charlemagne before and
- 23:39Speaker 11: it was similar, Hello.
- 23:40Speaker 12: Hello, Hello, good morning, Hi, good morning.
- 23:43Speaker 6: You can tell us.
- 23:44Speaker 8: What's your name, mama, I I'm Sharon.
- 23:48Speaker 4: Yes, So I want to just briefly just talk about
- 23:52Speaker 4: the interaction that I had with Charlamagne.
- 23:54Speaker 9: Charlamae.
- 23:55Speaker 10: This is going to be a compliment to you, Okay.
- 23:57Speaker 4: So I took my kids. My daughter at that time
- 24:00Speaker 4: was in her early twenties, my son was a eleven
- 24:03Speaker 4: year old, and you were at an event. I can't
- 24:05Speaker 4: remember the event, and we stood on your book signing.
- 24:08Speaker 4: We throw online to get the book signed, and you
- 24:11Speaker 4: took the time with each one of my children and
- 24:14Speaker 4: myself to speak to us, look directly in our eyes,
- 24:17Speaker 4: and engage. So I can see how people can interpret
- 24:20Speaker 4: that as flirting, but it really, to me came across
- 24:23Speaker 4: as being very sincere. And my kids remember that to
- 24:26Speaker 4: this day.
- 24:27Speaker 1: They remember meeting you.
- 24:28Speaker 6: So well, that's beautiful. You thought I was flirting with
- 24:30Speaker 6: your kids, and she.
- 24:35Speaker 4: Wasn't her twenties.
- 24:36Speaker 10: So still I can't.
- 24:40Speaker 8: Thank you very much.

- 24:56Speaker 6: Why wouldn't I have a moment with you?
- 24:58Speaker 8: Oh no, I'm talking about that moment in Atlanta.

- 25:14Speaker 14: gotta go out of your way, you know what I'm
- 25:16Speaker 14: saying to Like, as far as if you if you
- 25:18Speaker 14: just like talking to a gay person, nice to a
- 25:20Speaker 14: gay person, because if you're too nice in that gaitar
- 25:23Speaker 14: go off and they feel like like it's given.
- 25:26Speaker 1: So you know, I'm kind of.

- 25:40Speaker 13: Well, grand beginners, great beginners all.
- 25:42Speaker 8: Right, So we're talking about Charlemagne and what he did
- 25:45Speaker 8: this weekend.
- 25:45Speaker 11: You know, we're trying to figure the difference between complimenting
- 25:48Speaker 11: somebody and somebody flirting.
- 25:49Speaker 6: What's your thoughts, bro, I.
- 25:50Speaker 13: Feel flirting flirting is at a different exchange of energy
- 25:55Speaker 13: as far as when it comes with a woman is
- 25:56Speaker 13: gonna acknowledge you, She's gonna give you that. I ain't
- 26:00Speaker 13: fool no, Like yo, listen, I'm looking at you, I'm
- 26:03Speaker 13: observing you, and this is what I want. But at
- 26:05Speaker 13: the end of the day, if you don't read the signs, you.
- 26:07Speaker 10: Don't read it.
- 26:08Speaker 13: Like I said, like it's an energy exchange.
- 26:10Speaker 10: If you don't accept that energy exchange that you ain't
- 26:12Speaker 10: gonna find nothing else in that A complimented just I mean,
- 26:16Speaker 10: it's just like, Yo, you're looking good. That said, nothing more,
- 26:19Speaker 10: nothing less. I don't need your number, I don't need
- 26:20Speaker 10: your Instagram, I don't need nothing. You just made me
- 26:23Speaker 10: feel good about myself today.
- 26:24Speaker 1: Thank you.
- 26:25Speaker 10: I mean, I don't have a problem saying, yo, brother,
- 26:28Speaker 10: go some light sneakers or how you knowing you got
- 26:30Speaker 10: a beautiful smell.
- 26:31Speaker 6: Or know what I mean?
- 26:32Speaker 10: Like I said, just keep it moving. I don't get
- 26:34Speaker 10: to know you at.
- 26:42Speaker 8: So if a dude comeing to you say, yo, bro,
- 26:43Speaker 8: you got a beautiful smile. That's not flirting.
- 26:45Speaker 10: No, no, it's none. Because I'm very comfortable for who
- 26:48Speaker 10: I am as a man. I mean, I'm a father
- 26:50Speaker 10: at the end of the day. If you feel comfortable
- 26:52Speaker 10: saying that to me, then that you will have a
- 26:54Speaker 10: good soul in you, Bro, I mean, and I look
- 26:57Speaker 10: at you and having a good soul at the end
- 26:59Speaker 10: of the day. Because a lot of people can't get
- 27:01Speaker 10: up your shill, that's great with us. If you're comfortable
- 27:04Speaker 10: with what you do, you don't got to worry about
- 27:06Speaker 10: being gay enough.

- 30:40Speaker 1: What does that mean?
- 30:41Speaker 12: Well, you know, I spent a very long time code
- 30:44Speaker 12: switching and worming, and that's not freedom, and so I
- 30:47Speaker 12: no longer live that way. And so I always tell people, honey,
- 30:50Speaker 12: we got to freedom over colde switch. Well enough, just
- 30:53Speaker 12: as we are, even if we're from the country, even
- 30:55Speaker 12: if we're from the South.
- 30:56Speaker 2: It's just a thing. So I promote that all the
- 30:59Speaker 2: time here you go, I.
- 31:00Speaker 9: Feel like I know you because I told you, like
- 31:01Speaker 9: when I saw you over the summer. I'm like when
- 31:02Speaker 9: my kids watched taping around all the time on YouTube.
- 31:06Speaker 9: And then you know, my wife has the cookbooks, the
- 31:08Speaker 9: vegan cookbooks around the house like she was giving them
- 31:10Speaker 9: out his gifts to people.
- 31:13Speaker 11: We got to congratulate her on her and me as
- 31:14Speaker 11: well as just want to act thing. But congratulations, how
- 31:18Speaker 11: did that feel?
- 31:19Speaker 12: It still feels surreal, you know, but I feel grateful
- 31:23Speaker 12: to have one for just like being myself, right, but
- 31:26Speaker 12: something so powerful that it's for children. But it still
- 31:30Speaker 12: feels like it didn't happen. It feels like a dream almost.
- 31:34Speaker 12: But the crazy thing is there's another side of that
- 31:36Speaker 12: that it feels completely normal. So it's a weird feeling.
- 31:38Speaker 6: It's yours.
- 31:39Speaker 12: Yeah, it feels like, oh, this is what God intended
- 31:41Speaker 12: for my life. Absolutely, But the other side of it
- 31:43Speaker 12: is like, did that really happen?
- 31:44Speaker 5: So?
- 31:45Speaker 12: But yeah, how did the Internet change your life? Shoot, honey,
- 31:48Speaker 12: in every way? You know, I was I still am
- 31:51Speaker 12: an actress. But for a long time, you know, I
- 31:53Speaker 12: was pursuing acting and nobody really knew me from you know, acting,
- 31:57Speaker 12: and I started doing content, doing you know, videos, not
- 32:00Speaker 12: because I wanted to, but I had had a dream
- 32:02Speaker 12: and God spoke to me and told me to start
- 32:04Speaker 12: doing videos. And I was like, I don't want to
- 32:07Speaker 12: do that, you know, but I was also trying to
- 32:10Speaker 12: live a life of obedience. I started and nobody was watching,
- 32:13Speaker 12: and I was like, well, you told me to do this,
- 32:15Speaker 12: and ain't nobody. Ain't nobody showing up on these videos
- 32:17Speaker 12: to watch?
- 32:18Speaker 6: Why do you have me doing this?
- 32:20Speaker 12: And I started in August of twenty seventeen doing videos
- 32:23Speaker 12: and by December thirtieth, one of.
- 32:25Speaker 2: My videos went viral.
- 32:27Speaker 8: Which one it was?
- 32:28Speaker 12: It was a TTLA I was eating a sandwich in
- 32:30Speaker 12: my car because I was driving Uber and because I
- 32:32Speaker 12: was on disability for over you because I was so sick.
- 32:35Speaker 12: And when I started feeling better after going vegan, I
- 32:37Speaker 12: started driving Uber and I was like, you know what,
- 32:40Speaker 12: I had had a job before. I didn't want to
- 32:41Speaker 12: get stuck back in the nine to five. So I
- 32:43Speaker 12: told my husband. I was like, you know what, I'm
- 32:44Speaker 12: gonna go drive Uber. We live in LA. I'm probably
- 32:46Speaker 12: get discovered in my car. In my mind, I'm thinking
- 32:48Speaker 12: I'm gonna, you know, pick up a producer or director
- 32:50Speaker 12: or something. I stopped my Whole Foods because I dropped
- 32:52Speaker 12: somebody off. I was like, I'm gonna ahead and get
- 32:54Speaker 12: me a little breakfast and because I'm still a new
- 32:56Speaker 12: vegan at that time, and I got a sandwich and
- 32:59Speaker 12: did a review on because I was my videos when
- 33:01Speaker 12: I first started, I was just telling people I'm going vegan.
- 33:03Speaker 12: When I find new vegan options, I'm just gonna share it.
- 33:06Speaker 12: By the time I got home in the video had
- 33:07Speaker 12: like fifty some thousand views and I was like, wait
- 33:09Speaker 12: a minute, who watching this video?
- 33:10Speaker 6: But you was before Lee.
- 33:14Speaker 1: Listen.
- 33:14Speaker 2: I love that's my nephew. But the next morning had
- 33:17Speaker 2: like over one hundred thousand views and I was like.
- 33:19Speaker 2: I told my husband. I said, I think I'm going viral.
- 33:22Speaker 2: I was like, he was like what that means. I
- 33:24Speaker 2: was like, I don't know. And four days later, Whole
- 33:27Speaker 2: Foods reached out.
- 33:27Speaker 12: I was like, we saw your video because I got
- 33:29Speaker 12: the you know, sandwich from there, and they wanted to
- 33:31Speaker 12: partner with me. I became their brand ambassador and wow,
- 33:34Speaker 12: I to do so many campaigns and it ain't it's
- 33:36Speaker 12: been on ever since then.
- 33:37Speaker 8: Now, why'd you switch to vegan for people I don't know,
- 33:39Speaker 8: so I got sick.
- 33:41Speaker 12: So January of twenty sixteen, I woke up one morning
- 33:44Speaker 12: and I had this headache in the back of my head.
- 33:47Speaker 12: And I had a car accident in high school, so
- 33:48Speaker 12: I'm used to like waking up sometime in the back
- 33:50Speaker 12: of my neck is tied and sometime it goes into
- 33:52Speaker 12: my head.
- 33:53Speaker 2: So I thought it was one of those episodes.
- 33:55Speaker 12: But this headache rested in the back of my head
- 33:57Speaker 12: for a year and seven months wow, and it started to,
- 34:00Speaker 12: you know, affect my body, and so I started to
- 34:04Speaker 12: fall when I would walk as a woman.
- 34:07Speaker 2: All everything was all out of whack. I just did
- 34:09Speaker 2: not feel well.
- 34:10Speaker 12: So every time I went to the doctor, they were
- 34:12Speaker 12: doing so many tests. They was doing MRIs trying to
- 34:14Speaker 12: figure out what is wrong. So they told me they
- 34:17Speaker 12: was like, we know it's something autoimmune that's attacking your body.
- 34:19Speaker 12: We just can't figure it out. I lost my vision
- 34:21Speaker 12: for a day. It was a really bad time for me,
- 34:25Speaker 12: and I took every drug the doctor offered me. I
- 34:27Speaker 12: was like a guinea pig because you are desperate to
- 34:29Speaker 12: feel better, and if anything, it probably made me worse.
- 34:32Speaker 12: Nothing was working, and so My daughter came home from
- 34:35Speaker 12: school one day and she was like, Mommy, we saw
- 34:37Speaker 12: this documentary at school today.
- 34:39Speaker 2: I think you should watch it.
- 34:40Speaker 12: And I don't know if you know teenagers, honey, but
- 34:42Speaker 12: it ain't ever day they come home and tell you
- 34:43Speaker 12: to watch the documentary.
- 34:45Speaker 2: And so it was what they held on Netflix, and
- 34:47Speaker 2: so I was like, you know what, let's watch it
- 34:48Speaker 2: together as a family. So I watched it.
- 34:51Speaker 12: When they started talking about not all diseases are hereditary.
- 34:54Speaker 12: Sometime you can eat the same thing in your family
- 34:57Speaker 12: that will cause the same disease in your bloodline, and
- 34:59Speaker 12: that it's kind of like a light bulb moment for me.
- 35:01Speaker 12: My mama died at fifty one of a rare disease als.
- 35:04Speaker 12: My daddy is now seventy two, but he's the oldest
- 35:07Speaker 12: man that ever live in my family.
- 35:08Speaker 6: Wow.
- 35:08Speaker 2: People get sick at young ages in my family.
- 35:11Speaker 12: And they died young ages in my family. And the
- 35:13Speaker 12: only thing I could think of that we had in
- 35:15Speaker 12: common was how we ate. Now, I wasn't a bad
- 35:17Speaker 12: eater because I was in LA but I wasn't eating
- 35:20Speaker 12: to feel well.
- 35:21Speaker 2: I was eating to look a certain way, which is
- 35:23Speaker 2: it's also a sickness and so look a certain way.
- 35:27Speaker 8: So I'm not exactly I.
- 35:30Speaker 12: Wasn't eating to like, oh, let me put this in
- 35:31Speaker 12: my body so I can be well. I was like, oh,
- 35:33Speaker 12: let me put this in my body so I don't
- 35:35Speaker 12: gain weight.
- 35:35Speaker 2: Gotcha, you understand.
- 35:36Speaker 12: So but I said, wasn't you know a terrible You
- 35:40Speaker 12: know I haven't eaten red metal pork since I was fifteen,
- 35:43Speaker 12: And I was like, okay, and I'm allergic to de
- 35:45Speaker 12: every like most people. But I also was like, it's
- 35:47Speaker 12: the only thing I haven't tried. So I told my husband,
- 35:50Speaker 12: let's do like a thirty day decon challenge. Husband, so
- 35:53Speaker 12: for thirty days and so on like day ten, the
- 35:56Speaker 12: headache I had every day for a year and seven
- 35:58Speaker 12: months disappeared.
- 35:59Speaker 1: Wow.
- 35:59Speaker 2: I was like, wait a minute, I'm onto something.
- 36:02Speaker 9: And uh.
- 36:03Speaker 12: After that, every day I started getting energy again because
- 36:04Speaker 12: I had chronic the tea and I had chronic panic
- 36:07Speaker 12: attacks because when you sick and you know something is wrong,
- 36:10Speaker 12: but the doctor said, well we can't figure it out.
- 36:12Speaker 2: It makes you have anxiety and depression.
- 36:15Speaker 12: And so I started getting energy again because I would
- 36:18Speaker 12: sleep all day all night like I would just be
- 36:20Speaker 12: exhausted all the time, and so energy started coming back.
- 36:24Speaker 12: My head, you know, was feeling better. I was starting
- 36:26Speaker 12: to feel like myself again. And so that day, look,
- 36:29Speaker 12: when day thirty came, I told my husband, I was like,
- 36:31Speaker 12: this is gonna be my life.
- 36:32Speaker 2: You know, I'm gonna go vegan. He was like, well,
- 36:34Speaker 2: tomorrow we need a piece of chicken, tab like.
- 36:39Speaker 8: And so.
- 36:39Speaker 12: But I always tell people that part because sometimes the
- 36:42Speaker 12: journey that may change your life or safe your life,
- 36:45Speaker 12: you got to be willing to go on and a loan.
- 36:46Speaker 2: And so I was like, all right, and so I
- 36:49Speaker 2: ain't never looked back. That's why, all right, we.
- 36:50Speaker 11: Got more with tap of the brow when we come back,
- 36:52Speaker 11: don't move.
- 36:53Speaker 6: It's to Breakfast Club. Good morning morning everybody.
- 36:55Speaker 11: It's TJ n V Jess, Hilary Scharlamine, the guy we
- 36:58Speaker 11: are the Breakfast Club was still kicking it with Tabatha Brown, Charlemagne.
- 37:01Speaker 9: I got so many questions. Number one, you said something
- 37:04Speaker 9: earlier about God spoke to you. What does God sound
- 37:08Speaker 9: like for me?
- 37:10Speaker 12: Yeah, So I always tell people I get asked that
- 37:12Speaker 12: a lot. Now I am gives it in a different
- 37:16Speaker 12: way than most people. So for me, I can hear
- 37:20Speaker 12: like your voice I can hear sometimes it sounds like
- 37:24Speaker 12: a flutter, like a humming bird would be close to
- 37:26Speaker 12: my ears, so it's like a wind and it's a
- 37:29Speaker 12: it's a flutter, but you can hear sound in it.
- 37:32Speaker 2: I can see it. I can dream it.
- 37:35Speaker 12: I'm a seer, but in my dreams, like my dreams
- 37:37Speaker 12: can speak to me and things come to pass. So
- 37:40Speaker 12: that's what it sounds like for me For most people
- 37:44Speaker 12: who are always trying to figure out is this God
- 37:46Speaker 12: speaking to me?
- 37:47Speaker 6: Is this just my thoughts?
- 37:49Speaker 12: I will tell you that when you think of something,
- 37:52Speaker 12: you'll think of it and you may lose the thought
- 37:53Speaker 12: later right may not even come back to you. But
- 37:56Speaker 12: when God is speaking to you, when he's putting something
- 37:58Speaker 12: inside of you, it won't let you rest. It'll keep
- 38:01Speaker 12: coming back. And so that's how you can kind of decipher.
- 38:05Speaker 12: And then sometimes he will use a voice that's familiar
- 38:08Speaker 12: to you. And when you gift it, sometime it do
- 38:11Speaker 12: feel like you're crazy, and other people think that as well.
- 38:14Speaker 12: But now of course I know like, oh no, this
- 38:16Speaker 12: is just my gift, and I don't hide it anymore.
- 38:18Speaker 12: I don't straight away from it. I wrote about it
- 38:20Speaker 12: in my first book because I wanted people to know, like,
- 38:22Speaker 12: this is me. If you want to rock with tail, honey,
- 38:24Speaker 12: this is who I really am. I don't hide that
- 38:26Speaker 12: part of me anymore.
- 38:27Speaker 6: So, Wow, when you say you have gifts? So are
- 38:29Speaker 6: you clairvoyant? Are you like a medium?
- 38:32Speaker 2: I call it? I'm a seeer right, It's just you know,
- 38:35Speaker 2: that's a gift that God gave me.
- 38:37Speaker 12: I was born with it in that way. Yeah, my
- 38:39Speaker 12: whole life. I feel like we all have discernment. We
- 38:42Speaker 12: just don't all lean into it.
- 38:44Speaker 2: Right.
- 38:44Speaker 12: But for me, as a little girl, would dream about
- 38:47Speaker 12: people I've never met before and wake up and tell
- 38:49Speaker 12: my mom and dad. They're like, oh, I such and such,
- 38:51Speaker 12: and they'd be like that person been dead twenty years,
- 38:53Speaker 12: Like you would never know that person, right. I can
- 38:56Speaker 12: remember being in my grandfather's funeral, but they're like, you
- 38:59Speaker 12: were him, So it's no way for you to remember that.
- 39:02Speaker 2: I don't know, and I can't control it. That's the thing.
- 39:04Speaker 12: It just happens, like I gonna be talking to you
- 39:06Speaker 12: and something can just appear that I can see, and
- 39:09Speaker 12: it may be for you, or it may be to
- 39:11Speaker 12: protect me.
- 39:11Speaker 2: It just depends. But I have no control over that.
- 39:14Speaker 6: I was going to ask you, so you know North Carolina.
- 39:17Speaker 10: Uh huh.
- 39:17Speaker 11: So now you pick up your family and you move
- 39:19Speaker 11: to LA. Yes, how was that conversation with your husband?
- 39:22Speaker 11: And you get child and let's just go to l
- 39:25Speaker 11: a a place we don't know.
- 39:26Speaker 6: You gotta find a new job, and it's good Carolina. Yeah.
- 39:29Speaker 12: Yeah, it's crazy because at first my husband was like,
- 39:32Speaker 12: so in ninety eight, I moved to California in pursuit
- 39:36Speaker 12: of acting, but I wasn't in LA and I was
- 39:39Speaker 12: like in Orange County and I didn't tell my husband.
- 39:42Speaker 12: He was my boyfriend at the time, Like how bad
- 39:43Speaker 12: it was. Ain't telling nobody. I was renting the room
- 39:45Speaker 12: from somebody who was like taking all my money. But
- 39:47Speaker 12: you know, I'm like young, like nineteen, I really want
- 39:49Speaker 12: to get this dream out of me and I want
- 39:51Speaker 12: to do something. And so our plan was for him
- 39:54Speaker 12: to move out a couple months later, you know, and
- 39:56Speaker 12: then we would get our own place. But when he
- 39:58Speaker 12: moved out and saw how I was living, he was
- 39:59Speaker 12: like this is crazy. He's like, you're working two jobs
- 40:02Speaker 12: and survive. You ain't nowhere near LA. You're not pursuing acting.
- 40:05Speaker 12: He was like, we need to move back to North
- 40:07Speaker 12: Carolina so that we could save but money because it's cheaper.
- 40:09Speaker 12: He was like, we can stay for one year then
- 40:10Speaker 12: move back to LA so you can really pursue your dreams.
- 40:13Speaker 12: That one year turn into five years and a forgotten
- 40:16Speaker 12: dream right until I had that experience that morning. So
- 40:20Speaker 12: when I told my husband after I worked that job
- 40:21Speaker 12: for like a year, I was like, now it's time
- 40:23Speaker 12: for us to move back to LA.
- 40:24Speaker 8: He was like nah.
- 40:25Speaker 2: I was like, well, listen, I can. I can go
- 40:27Speaker 2: out there, but like I can feel it calling me
- 40:29Speaker 2: and I can come back and forth. He was like, oh, no,
- 40:31Speaker 2: we're not gonna do that.
- 40:32Speaker 6: I can imagine those arguments.
- 40:36Speaker 12: And I don't know what money I thought I had
- 40:37Speaker 12: that I could be by coastal Okay and go back
- 40:39Speaker 12: and forth. I don't know what I was thinking, but
- 40:42Speaker 12: we saved up like eight thousand dollars. Took us some
- 40:45Speaker 12: months and we moved to LA. And we first got there,
- 40:47Speaker 12: we was living in Barwen Hills and my husband, I mean,
- 40:50Speaker 12: we're both from the same hometown, you know, we from eating.
- 40:52Speaker 2: It's a very small town in North Carolina, and our apartment.
- 40:55Speaker 12: I had flew out there to find our apartment because
- 40:58Speaker 12: back then my husband used to be afraid to fly,
- 41:00Speaker 12: you know, people from the country.
- 41:01Speaker 2: They'd be like, I ain't get on no plane, you know.
- 41:02Speaker 12: So I had went back and forth to find us
- 41:04Speaker 12: a place and I found a cute this this spot
- 41:07Speaker 12: was cute to me, right, and but it did have
- 41:09Speaker 12: the bars on the window, because most of them do
- 41:11Speaker 12: in l A.
- 41:12Speaker 1: Right.
- 41:12Speaker 12: So, but we weren't used to that. But I didn't
- 41:15Speaker 12: tell him because in my mind I thought it was
- 41:17Speaker 12: nice and it was. It did turn out to be nice.
- 41:19Speaker 6: Was he able to bring his gun with him?
- 41:22Speaker 1: He did?
- 41:23Speaker 6: Actually, okay, you know what he did.
- 41:25Speaker 8: He did the garden.
- 41:28Speaker 12: No, he did. But when we got that he was hot.
- 41:31Speaker 12: He was like what we were like right off Crenshaw
- 41:35Speaker 12: he was yeah. He was like, what babe, we got
- 41:37Speaker 12: a door there. I was like, babe, I didn't scoped
- 41:40Speaker 12: it out. This is a good area, I promise you.
- 41:43Speaker 12: And because there was you know, that was when the
- 41:45Speaker 12: reality show Ball when Hills was out. Remember that, I said,
- 41:47Speaker 12: we live in Baldwin Hills. It's just that we don't
- 41:50Speaker 12: live in View Park. But where we parked we could
- 41:52Speaker 12: see the view. Like I'm trying to sell it, right,
- 41:55Speaker 12: But he got used to it over time. But you know,
- 41:57Speaker 12: in the beginning, we was a little we was at
- 41:59Speaker 12: all for a while, but you know, we saved there
- 42:02Speaker 12: for five years and we loved it.
- 42:03Speaker 1: Wow.
- 42:03Speaker 9: One of the moments that we all saw that went
- 42:06Speaker 9: viral was when you retired your husband and you know,
- 42:09Speaker 9: Wendy Williams had made some statements about you, and the
- 42:12Speaker 9: way you responded.
- 42:13Speaker 6: You responded with such grace and such love. It was
- 42:15Speaker 6: almost like, I hope you heal, Absolutely you heal a moment.
- 42:19Speaker 2: Do you respond like that always in this season of
- 42:22Speaker 2: my life?
- 42:22Speaker 6: Yes?
- 42:23Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 42:23Speaker 12: I mean the old tab probably would have had that
- 42:26Speaker 12: get back spirit, right, but she didn't even know me,
- 42:30Speaker 12: and I don't know her other than knowing her from
- 42:32Speaker 12: you know her her career. But you can also tell
- 42:36Speaker 12: when somebody is hurt. And we've all been through things
- 42:39Speaker 12: that cause us to project and feel a certain way.
- 42:43Speaker 12: But I'm not going to exhaust energy and give anybody
- 42:47Speaker 12: control over me to anger me, right. So, but also
- 42:51Speaker 12: I just love people despite what anybody have to say
- 42:54Speaker 12: about me. There's so many people now that that hate me,
- 42:57Speaker 12: that don't know me, but I love them. It also
- 43:00Speaker 12: makes me want to love harder in the world because
- 43:03Speaker 12: people are hurting.
- 43:04Speaker 14: Right.
- 43:05Speaker 2: You know, a lot of people think that.
- 43:06Speaker 12: I'm fake because I'm nice and I'm like, I'm a
- 43:10Speaker 12: kind I'm compassionate. I held my mama's hand while she died,
- 43:14Speaker 12: like I've seen death so many times, like I have
- 43:18Speaker 12: also almost lost my life. Why would I not be
- 43:21Speaker 12: happy and joyful I'm still here? Right, So it hurts
- 43:26Speaker 12: my heart for other people when I know that they're
- 43:29Speaker 12: just hurting and they don't mean any harm in a
- 43:33Speaker 12: way that they it's really they're trying to make themselves
- 43:36Speaker 12: feel better. They're projecting, right, They're projecting, and so the
- 43:40Speaker 12: harm is really they're doing it to themselves because they're
- 43:42Speaker 12: not instead of projecting, you should be trying to heal
- 43:46Speaker 12: yourself and get what you need to feel better.
- 43:49Speaker 11: But I don't know, did you get a lot of
- 43:50Speaker 11: flak for it? Because you know what it told me
- 43:53Speaker 11: during that time is people don't understand love. Yeah, right,
- 43:56Speaker 11: you love your husband. Your financial fine, and you can
- 44:01Speaker 11: make sure that he's okay, you know, and it doesn't
- 44:03Speaker 11: matter if he's a man, he's a woman, or what
- 44:05Speaker 11: he is. You love me, and you had the opportunity
- 44:07Speaker 11: to retire man and men do it for women all
- 44:09Speaker 11: the time. So I didn't see it. So did you
- 44:10Speaker 11: get a lot of flat for it?
- 44:12Speaker 13: Oh?
- 44:12Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean a lot of people had something to
- 44:14Speaker 12: say about it, but that's their opinion, don't I don't care.
- 44:19Speaker 12: That ain't my business. But I also realized that a
- 44:23Speaker 12: lot of people don't understand partnership.
- 44:27Speaker 9: Right.
- 44:27Speaker 12: I've been my husband twenty six years. I'm amazing more
- 44:31Speaker 12: than half my life. Right, most people don't even understand that.
- 44:34Speaker 1: How did he feel?
- 44:36Speaker 6: Felt?
- 44:36Speaker 2: He felt amazing.
- 44:37Speaker 12: But after what people don't know is I had been
- 44:42Speaker 12: trying to retire my husband for like two years. We
- 44:44Speaker 12: had enough money. He was like, that money came to quit. Bay,
- 44:47Speaker 12: I don't want to do that to you now, just
- 44:49Speaker 12: in case. Yeah, he was like, nah, I know one
- 44:52Speaker 12: plus one equal two.
- 44:53Speaker 6: We don't know.
- 44:53Speaker 12: Because he also has watched me in Hollywood over twenty
- 44:56Speaker 12: years not get jobs for six months or two year
- 45:00Speaker 12: years or whatever.
- 45:01Speaker 2: He was like, we can't.
- 45:02Speaker 12: We can't count on this new money, right, And so
- 45:05Speaker 12: I was like, Babe, I promise you I got the
- 45:08Speaker 12: amount of money that we have always said that we
- 45:10Speaker 12: have this amount of money in the bank. Tax has
- 45:13Speaker 12: been paid. We don't owe nobody that.
- 45:15Speaker 2: You will retire. And he was like, all right, and
- 45:18Speaker 2: let me think about it. He took a leave first.
- 45:20Speaker 12: He just was like, I don't want that on your back,
- 45:24Speaker 12: you know, even though he has a nonprofit, but it
- 45:26Speaker 12: wasn't gonna make the you know, coming straight out, he
- 45:28Speaker 12: won't gonna make the kind of money he was making before.
- 45:31Speaker 2: And I was like, but now you can build it.
- 45:32Speaker 2: Now you can do all the things you wanted to do.
- 45:34Speaker 1: Right.
- 45:35Speaker 12: So, uh, it took him a while, but afterwards. Now listen,
- 45:38Speaker 12: right now, what time is that they might be on
- 45:40Speaker 12: the golf course? Okay, listen, he worked with his kids
- 45:43Speaker 12: three four days a week, but he'd be on that
- 45:45Speaker 12: golf course.
- 45:46Speaker 2: He is, He is feeling it now. He joys a
- 45:48Speaker 2: little about it. Absolutely all.
- 45:49Speaker 8: We got more with Tabitha Brown when we come back
- 45:51Speaker 8: beyond Sy.
- 45:52Speaker 11: She's getting an Innovative Award at the iHeartRadio Awards tonight.
- 45:55Speaker 11: So let's get into a mini mixers to Breakfast. So
- 45:57Speaker 11: warning everybody, it's tj MV. Just Ti Larry Is Charlamage
- 46:00Speaker 11: the guy. We are to Breakfast Club are still kick
- 46:02Speaker 11: it with Tabitha Brown. Charlamagne let's talk about this book.
- 46:05Speaker 11: I did a new thing, your new book, Yes, all
- 46:08Speaker 11: thirty days of living free. What is living free?
- 46:10Speaker 12: To Tabitha Brown, Well, you know freedom over coach switching, right,
- 46:14Speaker 12: we talked about that. But living free is like taking
- 46:17Speaker 12: an opportunity to do something even if it scares you, right,
- 46:21Speaker 12: just doing something new.
- 46:22Speaker 1: Right.
- 46:23Speaker 12: I started doing this challenge in twenty fourteen. I was
- 46:26Speaker 12: really just in search of like getting to know myself
- 46:29Speaker 12: better because I still was not free. And I would
- 46:32Speaker 12: do something new, whether it be with my kids or
- 46:35Speaker 12: by myself, and just to see how it would open
- 46:37Speaker 12: my mind and how it would make me feel. And
- 46:40Speaker 12: so I did that over the years, and I would
- 46:41Speaker 12: always you know, learn something new about myself. Like I
- 46:45Speaker 12: discovered my love for hiking, and I was like, oh shoot,
- 46:48Speaker 12: I never would have thought that I would love hiking.
- 46:50Speaker 12: And then now it's something I have continued to do
- 46:52Speaker 12: over the years. And so I was like, if I
- 46:55Speaker 12: do this again, I think I want to.
- 46:56Speaker 2: Write a book.
- 46:57Speaker 12: So last year I did it for thirty days and
- 47:00Speaker 12: I journaled it and made it into a book. And
- 47:02Speaker 12: my hope was that other people want to, you know,
- 47:05Speaker 12: live free and try new things and the other thing
- 47:09Speaker 12: about freedom. In order to like really go out and
- 47:13Speaker 12: do something new, that's the only way you're gonna know
- 47:15Speaker 12: if you love something or you don't like it, right,
- 47:18Speaker 12: you have to be willing to be like, I don't care,
- 47:20Speaker 12: I just want to find out.
- 47:21Speaker 2: Let me just see right.
- 47:22Speaker 12: So, and it also could be something as simple as
- 47:24Speaker 12: I'm gonna work my hair different, Like right now I'm
- 47:26Speaker 12: doing a you know, my hair name is Donna. So
- 47:28Speaker 12: I'm doing while I'm on tour, I'm making a new
- 47:31Speaker 12: hair style every day.
- 47:32Speaker 6: He said. His name is Donna.
- 47:33Speaker 2: Yeah, her name Donna.
- 47:34Speaker 6: Donna.
- 47:35Speaker 2: Oh, it's just Donna. Well, I named after Don King.
- 47:37Speaker 6: Because put together today.
- 47:44Speaker 12: But she got her name because when I was I
- 47:46Speaker 12: did the big chopping when she was growing back. One
- 47:48Speaker 12: night I was cooking live and it was like straight
- 47:51Speaker 12: up in the top. I was like, why is that
- 47:52Speaker 12: piece of hair you know, stick it straight up looking
- 47:54Speaker 12: like Don King. I was like, I'm about to call
- 47:55Speaker 12: her Donna, and it's stuff.
- 47:57Speaker 6: It's stuck.
- 47:58Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 47:58Speaker 6: I love that you dedicated your new book to you. Yeah,
- 48:02Speaker 6: why was that important to do?
- 48:03Speaker 12: Cause, Honney, I'm the one who made the decision to
- 48:06Speaker 12: choose myself, right, and I made the decision to stop
- 48:10Speaker 12: being afraid and to live my life my way and
- 48:14Speaker 12: to try new things. And the biggest thing I ever
- 48:17Speaker 12: did for thirty days was go vegan, and it saved
- 48:20Speaker 12: my life. And I was like, girl this youtab. I
- 48:23Speaker 12: prayed that I forever and always do new things every day.
- 48:27Speaker 2: I want to do that for the rest of my life.
- 48:29Speaker 6: I was going to ask, you know, so many people
- 48:31Speaker 6: listening right, how did you know not to give up?
- 48:34Speaker 1: Right?
- 48:34Speaker 11: Because I'm sure there's somebody listening right now that's been
- 48:36Speaker 11: trying music for ten years and it didn't work, and
- 48:39Speaker 11: somebody that's trying acting it didn't work. Somebody's trying to
- 48:41Speaker 11: be in the chef, somebody's trying to be an author,
- 48:43Speaker 11: somebody's trying to do something online and creating videos and
- 48:45Speaker 11: nobody's watching.
- 48:47Speaker 6: And they probably said I felt I got a sign.
- 48:51Speaker 11: Yeah, when did you tell them to say, maybe that's
- 48:53Speaker 11: not the sign and maybe the change or you know,
- 48:55Speaker 11: how do you tell somebody to continue to keep doing
- 48:57Speaker 11: what they're doing because you could have gave up so
- 48:59Speaker 11: many times.
- 49:00Speaker 12: Yeah, I would never really tell anybody to give up.
- 49:04Speaker 12: If you think God has given you a sign, then
- 49:06Speaker 12: trust the signs. For me, it was always signs, and
- 49:11Speaker 12: that's confirmation. If it won't let you rest, if you
- 49:15Speaker 12: try to give up and it won't let you, those
- 49:17Speaker 12: are the signs that we have to not ignore. But
- 49:21Speaker 12: also we have to kind of ignore the noise of
- 49:26Speaker 12: people who tell you you can't. But also we have
- 49:29Speaker 12: to be honest with ourselves. If you are not really
- 49:32Speaker 12: doing the work for the dream that you have, is
- 49:36Speaker 12: it really your dream?
- 49:38Speaker 6: Right?
- 49:38Speaker 12: Because sometimes it might be a goal. And the difference
- 49:41Speaker 12: between a goal and a dream is a goal is
- 49:44Speaker 12: something that you create. A dream is deposited inside of you.
- 49:47Speaker 2: God does that.
- 49:49Speaker 12: You don't make up a dream, It lives inside of you.
- 49:53Speaker 12: So be honest with yourself. Do you want it because
- 49:55Speaker 12: you see somebody else with it? It would look cool
- 49:57Speaker 12: to you.
- 49:58Speaker 2: Do you just want to make money? Or is it
- 50:00Speaker 2: something that won't let you rest?
- 50:02Speaker 6: Another chapter?
- 50:04Speaker 8: Do something that breaks the rules but not the law.
- 50:08Speaker 12: Oh so I tell people that all the time, Like,
- 50:12Speaker 12: you know, some rules are set by us, you know,
- 50:15Speaker 12: by people as well as laws.
- 50:17Speaker 8: Right, But I know your kids come back with you
- 50:19Speaker 8: all the time. Mommy said me break the rules.
- 50:22Speaker 12: It's not belive exactly exactly but I talk about this
- 50:26Speaker 12: in the book that you know. I had got invited
- 50:28Speaker 12: to a party, you know, and it was a strict
- 50:31Speaker 12: dress code or they wanted you to wear black.
- 50:34Speaker 2: I don't like wearing black, and this is about as
- 50:37Speaker 2: black as a gift for me. I love color.
- 50:39Speaker 12: It makes me happy when I wear like all black,
- 50:41Speaker 12: it makes.
- 50:41Speaker 2: Me feel weird.
- 50:43Speaker 6: Funerals all come.
- 50:44Speaker 12: Yeah, I don't know, like even if funerals, like in
- 50:45Speaker 12: my family we wear a lot of colors or we
- 50:47Speaker 12: were white, but it just makes me feel a little
- 50:50Speaker 12: I don't know, maybe sad. And I realize that if
- 50:52Speaker 12: I do wear I got to have like a proper
- 50:53Speaker 12: color in my lips or something.
- 50:55Speaker 2: I don't know. But I was like, I don't want
- 50:57Speaker 2: to wear black to this thing.
- 50:59Speaker 12: I got a figure something ab out so I found
- 51:02Speaker 12: like I had this it was like a blazer but
- 51:04Speaker 12: it was the background was black, but they had a
- 51:06Speaker 12: bunch of colors and patterns on it.
- 51:07Speaker 6: And I wore like some black.
- 51:08Speaker 2: Beilt bottomed pants.
- 51:10Speaker 12: Got there and a lot of other people had more black,
- 51:13Speaker 12: and so I was like, this is why we can
- 51:16Speaker 12: break the rules sometimes, you know. I could have said, Okay,
- 51:19Speaker 12: I'm wear all black. And been uncomfortable all night and
- 51:22Speaker 12: then got there and being mad, like, look at other people,
- 51:25Speaker 12: they ain't wear what they said. We're supposed to wear it, right, So.
- 51:28Speaker 2: That's what I mean by that. Sometime we can break
- 51:30Speaker 2: the rules, just don't break the law.
- 51:31Speaker 6: So you ain't never gonna follow in a dress code.
- 51:33Speaker 6: If it's an all white party and nothing you can ye.
- 51:36Speaker 12: But yeah, I mean I would wear it, but it's
- 51:41Speaker 12: gonna have to have a little something that make me
- 51:43Speaker 12: feel like tap, you know, because I also want to
- 51:45Speaker 12: go in and be myself, you know.
- 51:47Speaker 6: So do something that requires you to face your losses.
- 51:51Speaker 6: That's a powerful one.
- 51:53Speaker 12: So when I you know, I had a restaurant, right
- 51:56Speaker 12: and when I had my restaurant, it was a partnership,
- 52:00Speaker 12: and we had a lot of problems with the building.
- 52:04Speaker 12: And so because the kill my name is the restaurant
- 52:06Speaker 12: in Chicago that I fell in love with. So when
- 52:08Speaker 12: he came to LA, I was like, oh, I partnered
- 52:09Speaker 12: with you an open a restaurant. I didn't know the
- 52:11Speaker 12: restaurant business, but this building gave us a lot of
- 52:14Speaker 12: issues and so we ultimately had to close.
- 52:18Speaker 2: And so I was like, oh man, it felt like
- 52:23Speaker 2: a loss to me because I had had, you know,
- 52:26Speaker 2: so much happening.
- 52:27Speaker 12: People would come in. I would people come from all
- 52:29Speaker 12: over to just meet me at the restaurant. And I
- 52:32Speaker 12: wasn't there every day, but on the weekends or whenever
- 52:34Speaker 12: I could, I would go and just be there all
- 52:36Speaker 12: day to make sure I got to see people when
- 52:37Speaker 12: they came.
- 52:38Speaker 2: We ended up having to shut it down, and I
- 52:42Speaker 2: was like really kind of hurt about.
- 52:43Speaker 12: You know, for a while, and I really couldn't talk
- 52:45Speaker 12: about it because we were having legal problems with the
- 52:47Speaker 12: you know, the building on it, because it was the
- 52:48Speaker 12: whole thing. When it was time to do my taxes,
- 52:52Speaker 12: I've been carrying this, like, man, I feel so bad
- 52:54Speaker 12: about it. I realized that the loss had really blessed
- 52:59Speaker 12: me a week I wasn't weird, right, And so I
- 53:03Speaker 12: was like, sometimes we got to look at the loss
- 53:05Speaker 12: for what it is. Maybe it ain't a loss, you know,
- 53:08Speaker 12: but also it opened up doors with me and now
- 53:09Speaker 12: I have, you know, my food and stuff at Target.
- 53:11Speaker 12: So I was like, it won't necessarily a loss, you know,
- 53:15Speaker 12: we can't always look at them, you know, things like that.
- 53:17Speaker 12: So it actually blessed me because I ain't have to pay.
- 53:20Speaker 6: As much a little bit. Let's run some of this
- 53:23Speaker 6: stuff downe now. So you got deals with Target?
- 53:24Speaker 8: Who else?
- 53:25Speaker 6: Come on?
- 53:26Speaker 9: Don't need to hum in this moment like a rapper
- 53:28Speaker 9: right now? You know he got the tap time booming
- 53:32Speaker 9: on YouTube. You got deals with Target, you got book deals?
- 53:35Speaker 6: What else?
- 53:36Speaker 12: I have my own seasonings McCormick spice.
- 53:39Speaker 2: I have six of those.
- 53:42Speaker 6: Fridays with tab and do have.
- 53:43Speaker 2: Frides having chance.
- 53:44Speaker 12: I do very good Mondays where I bless small businesses
- 53:47Speaker 12: every Monday.
- 53:49Speaker 2: Of course I have my own merch that feels weird
- 53:52Speaker 2: to just name everything, but.
- 54:00Speaker 8: I don't even you know.
- 54:02Speaker 2: I still do my active thing.
- 54:03Speaker 12: You know, I've lost a production company in a partnership
- 54:06Speaker 12: with Stephen Love with may Love Media.
- 54:09Speaker 6: Yeah, I don't know, Tabitha Brown. I can didn't talk
- 54:13Speaker 6: to you for ever.

- 55:29Speaker 9: this is a new one, all right. Courtney lied to
- 55:31Speaker 9: her husband about purchasing a home, and she got arrested
- 55:35Speaker 9: after trying to move into a house she never purchased.
- 55:38Speaker 6: Okay, let me break this down for you. It's a
- 55:40Speaker 6: lot of information.
- 55:41Speaker 1: Okay.
- 55:41Speaker 6: I'm reading this from new Channel eight on your Side
- 55:45Speaker 6: court documentary Build.
- 55:46Speaker 9: An Indiana man thought he and his wife were moving
- 55:48Speaker 9: into a brand new home after going through the real
- 55:50Speaker 9: estate process and being handed the keys to a house.
- 55:53Speaker 6: What her husband didn't know.
- 55:54Speaker 9: Was that his wife faked all the financial documents submitted
- 55:58Speaker 9: to the realtors and then broke into the home smash,
- 56:00Speaker 9: opened the lock box and told her husband they were
- 56:02Speaker 9: new homeowners.
- 56:03Speaker 6: Why what is the point of a woman faking anything?
- 56:06Speaker 9: There's a woman in this building who I overheard having
- 56:10Speaker 9: a conversation with Jess Hilarious earlier saying that she once
- 56:13Speaker 9: told a man she aorgas them three times.
- 56:15Speaker 6: What's the point? What's the point of lying?
- 56:18Speaker 9: Imagine lying to a chef that you full when you're
- 56:22Speaker 9: really hungry as hell and he's willing and able to
- 56:25Speaker 9: cook for you.
- 56:26Speaker 6: You just gotta tell him what you want and how
- 56:27Speaker 6: you want it.
- 56:28Speaker 9: Huh.
- 56:28Speaker 6: Simple listen, listen to this.
- 56:30Speaker 9: According to court documents, police officers from the Eaton Police
- 56:32Speaker 9: Department were called out to a home on North chest
- 56:35Speaker 9: Nut Street at six thirty eight pm on February sixteenth
- 56:37Speaker 9: after the property owner claimed to have spotted the U
- 56:40Speaker 9: haul truck outside the home. The owner told police no
- 56:43Speaker 9: one was supposed to be at the home, which was
- 56:45Speaker 9: vacant and for sale. Officers arrived to the scene to
- 56:48Speaker 9: find a couple moving into the house, unloading boxes and
- 56:52Speaker 9: brandishing keys to the front door. Cotney told her husband
- 56:55Speaker 9: that she and him had purchased the home and had
- 56:57Speaker 9: been given the keys by their realtor, who took the
- 57:00Speaker 9: out the lock box after the sale was finalized.
- 57:02Speaker 6: And handed them over to the new homeowners.
- 57:05Speaker 9: Courtney even showed police screenshots of paperwork that showed they
- 57:09Speaker 9: had purchased the home. Big lies okay, but the story
- 57:13Speaker 9: didn't match with the property on it told police. According
- 57:15Speaker 9: to the property owners real to, the sale of the
- 57:17Speaker 9: house was never finalized due to.
- 57:18Speaker 6: Payment never being received.
- 57:20Speaker 9: A deeper dive uncovered that not only had the couple
- 57:23Speaker 9: not submitted their payment, but the farms handed over to
- 57:25Speaker 9: the realta had been fraudulent the realtor said they noticed
- 57:28Speaker 9: something was off with the forms due to grammatical errors
- 57:32Speaker 9: such as stating contact.
- 57:34Speaker 6: You at instead of contact us at.
- 57:38Speaker 9: The police reached out to the couple's realtor, who allegedly
- 57:40Speaker 9: handed the pair of keys from the houses lock box
- 57:44Speaker 9: to the couple, only to learn that that tool was
- 57:46Speaker 9: a lie. The realtor said the sale hadn't been completed
- 57:49Speaker 9: this whole police she did not hand over the keys
- 57:50Speaker 9: from the lock box. Police ended up discovering that the
- 57:53Speaker 9: lock box had been smashed open and the pieces hidden
- 57:56Speaker 9: inside the drawer in the house. When the couple was
- 57:58Speaker 9: confronted about their crimes, Courtney told police that her husband
- 58:02Speaker 9: had been left in the dark about the fraud. He
- 58:04Speaker 9: hadn't been aware of the fraudulent statements, all the truth
- 58:06Speaker 9: behind the lock box. Then Courtney did what most women
- 58:09Speaker 9: do when they get caught red handed. She just started
- 58:11Speaker 9: spilling her guts, and she confessed that she broke into
- 58:13Speaker 9: the home prior to the couple moving in. She says
- 58:16Speaker 9: she climbed through windows, unlocked all the doors, and smashed
- 58:18Speaker 9: open the lock box before her husband arrived to move
- 58:21Speaker 9: that stuff in. Also, for good measure, the tow truck
- 58:24Speaker 9: driven by her husband was reported stolen. Courtney said she
- 58:27Speaker 9: let her husband drive this truck because she couldn't drive stick.
- 58:29Speaker 6: Come to find out, the truck.
- 58:30Speaker 9: Hadn't been purchased. Okay, well it did. It had been purchased,
- 58:33Speaker 9: but with a bad check. Her husband didn't know about
- 58:35Speaker 9: that either. He had no idea the truck was purchased
- 58:38Speaker 9: with a bad check. How long did Courtney Davis think
- 58:41Speaker 9: these lives were gonna last? She was willing to move
- 58:43Speaker 9: all her stuff into our house. She knows, she didn't
- 58:46Speaker 9: know as if it would be on the market forever.
- 58:48Speaker 9: This has to be a violation of marriage.
- 58:50Speaker 1: Vows.
- 58:50Speaker 9: There's no way on God's Green Earth or any of
- 58:52Speaker 9: her other planets that I'm supposed to stay with a
- 58:54Speaker 9: woman who lies like this. A lie can destroy a
- 58:56Speaker 9: relationship in a second, but he can take a lifetime
- 58:59Speaker 9: to rebuild the trust. And I only got one of those,
- 59:01Speaker 9: so I'm not wasting it on you. I hope Courtney's
- 59:03Speaker 9: husband feels the same. Please give Courtney L. Davis the
- 59:06Speaker 9: biggest he hull, not just lars. Regardless of what social
- 59:12Speaker 9: media says, you are a woman, a beautiful woman, absolutely
- 59:15Speaker 9: playing with you what's the top three lies?
- 59:17Speaker 6: You ever told that to a man?
- 59:22Speaker 13: An?
- 59:23Speaker 6: Yeah, a man for real?
- 59:25Speaker 12: Okay, so the top one. And I even told Chris,
- 59:28Speaker 12: I don't know, it's just something about you. I don't
- 59:31Speaker 12: usually have sex like one the first DAT.
- 59:34Speaker 8: We all did that.
- 59:35Speaker 2: Don't be looking at me like that.
- 59:36Speaker 1: Oh my god.
- 59:36Speaker 6: No, yes, oh my god, yes.
- 59:38Speaker 12: Look and he and I'm pregnant now and.
- 59:40Speaker 8: Were happy and yeah, Chris know this or he's just
- 59:42Speaker 8: hearing it for the first time.
- 59:43Speaker 12: He ain't listening today because he got a lot going on.
- 59:45Speaker 6: Oh yeah, what's the number two? Oh my god?
- 59:51Speaker 12: I remember this one time I lied about being in
- 59:53Speaker 12: the hospital so and they could call me back.
- 59:56Speaker 8: He wasn't trying to call me back. I told like
- 1:00:00Speaker 8: I didn't call.
- 1:00:00Speaker 12: Him and told him, yeah, like, I'm in a hospital,
- 1:00:03Speaker 12: you know, an, I'm having anxiety attack. I don't even
- 1:00:05Speaker 12: got anxiety issues. I'm having anxiety attack, so he can
- 1:00:07Speaker 12: call me back. No, he still didn't call me.
- 1:00:09Speaker 1: But that was a lie.
- 1:00:10Speaker 9: Yeah, it was a lie, not having the first DAT
- 1:00:14Speaker 9: being in the hospital or the third one.
- 1:00:16Speaker 12: And this one time I was trying to cheat on
- 1:00:19Speaker 12: my ex boyfriend. I told somebody I broke up with him?
- 1:00:21Speaker 12: Who didn't who wouldn't deal with me because I had
- 1:00:24Speaker 12: a boyfriend. I lied and said I broke up with
- 1:00:26Speaker 12: him just so I could deal with the guys. Yeah,
- 1:00:30Speaker 12: it is, but I hadn't understanding something. This is before
- 1:00:33Speaker 12: she took his head off. This was before a lot
- 1:00:35Speaker 12: of things, Like I hadn't seen she go head like yeah,
- 1:00:39Speaker 12: he had fished me like yeah, and so by then
- 1:00:41Speaker 12: he was already my friend. So I was like, thank
- 1:00:43Speaker 12: God that he dodged me, because I was like Jesus
- 1:00:46Speaker 12: Christ if I gave him something, And imagine if I
- 1:00:49Speaker 12: walked in that room and he took that head off,
- 1:00:51Speaker 12: like yeah, what's up?
- 1:00:53Speaker 6: I would have ruved.
- 1:00:55Speaker 8: Yo, I can't do this job. To quit whiling out
- 1:00:57Speaker 8: and everything.
- 1:00:57Speaker 9: It's no way now between Courtney Davis and just Larrys.
- 1:01:01Speaker 9: I think, brothers, you should just turn to your woman
- 1:01:03Speaker 9: to give her a little pinch under the off.
- 1:01:04Speaker 6: It's a little.
- 1:01:08Speaker 12: Sound like a strong back woman. She moved everything and
- 1:01:12Speaker 12: she had this is strong. Yes, she climbed through the windows,
- 1:01:16Speaker 12: she smashed.
- 1:01:17Speaker 8: A lot of sacks.
- 1:01:18Speaker 12: She what just.
- 1:01:21Speaker 8: Yet she's strong.
- 1:01:22Speaker 2: That's a strong liar right there.

- 1:02:36Speaker 5: world watching me.
- 1:02:37Speaker 6: That was just kind of a certain amount.
- 1:02:39Speaker 5: I would have to say the Super Bowl, man, because
- 1:02:41Speaker 5: that was just one of those moments in time where
- 1:02:43Speaker 5: I was I was nervous for my friend. This boy
- 1:02:45Speaker 5: was on roller skates and all type of stuff, and
- 1:02:47Speaker 5: we know that he practices these.
- 1:02:48Speaker 6: Things, but that was it was a little different, man.
- 1:02:51Speaker 5: And uh, I just felt the energy from around the
- 1:02:54Speaker 5: world on that day a little bit more than.
- 1:02:56Speaker 6: I felt on that repelling down from the Georgia Dome.
- 1:02:58Speaker 6: Do you ever get nervous?
- 1:03:00Speaker 11: I know, you perform every weekend and you've done these
- 1:03:02Speaker 11: shows like that one time the biggest stage, and you

- 1:03:08Speaker 11: ever cross your mind at all?
- 1:03:09Speaker 13: You know?
- 1:03:10Speaker 5: So you know what Little John asked me that before
- 1:03:12Speaker 5: we went on, And I'm gonna say something that probably
- 1:03:14Speaker 5: no artists probably ever said.
- 1:03:16Speaker 6: Absolutely, bro, I get nervous. All the time.
- 1:03:18Speaker 5: The moment you stop getting nervous is the moment that
- 1:03:21Speaker 5: you don't care. And you know who told me that
- 1:03:23Speaker 5: may he rest in peace? DMX said that to me, man,
- 1:03:26Speaker 5: and I took that the heart ever since. I'm always
- 1:03:29Speaker 5: nervous right before I hit stage because I care so much.
- 1:03:31Speaker 5: But as soon as I hit that stage, as soon
- 1:03:33Speaker 5: as my voice comes on that mic, all the nervousness.
- 1:03:36Speaker 6: Goes out the way. But always always nervous.
- 1:03:39Speaker 9: You know, Luda, we're on zoom, but you know, I
- 1:03:41Speaker 9: can see who's on the zoom and I see the
- 1:03:43Speaker 9: good brother Shaka Zulu on the zoom. Man, it's incredible
- 1:03:46Speaker 9: to see men, especially Black men, have such a long,
- 1:03:50Speaker 9: healthy relationship like like.
- 1:03:52Speaker 8: Like y'all have.
- 1:03:52Speaker 9: What do you mean to still have Shaka in your
- 1:03:55Speaker 9: life after, you know, especially after what he just went through.
- 1:03:58Speaker 6: Man, Listen, Shaka is my mentor.
- 1:04:00Speaker 5: I don't know if y'all saw when I received my
- 1:04:02Speaker 5: Hollywood Walk of Fame, man, but it occurred to me

- 1:04:09Speaker 5: like the fathers that I've had since my father passed away.
- 1:04:13Speaker 6: Man, and I started breaking down in tears.
- 1:04:15Speaker 5: So I can say a lot of things, but I
- 1:04:17Speaker 5: hope that makes you understand how much it is, how
- 1:04:20Speaker 5: much it means to me to have someone like Shaka
- 1:04:23Speaker 5: in my life man as a mentor, as a gud,

- 1:07:13Speaker 5: I love in hip hop when people just try to
- 1:07:16Speaker 5: prove to each other and you got the best of
- 1:07:18Speaker 5: the best, and you know, I'm loving what's going on.
- 1:07:21Speaker 6: I can't wait to see how this plays out.
- 1:07:23Speaker 9: Well, Loude, what you're saying that you know, Nelly was
- 1:07:25Speaker 9: on the Shop and he said that his era of
- 1:07:28Speaker 9: rap was the toughest and most competitive, Like, so that.
- 1:07:31Speaker 6: Was your era too, yeah, j m Wayne fifty and
- 1:07:36Speaker 6: loud he said that you know you actually said your name,
- 1:07:38Speaker 6: if I'm not mistaken.
- 1:07:39Speaker 5: Yeah, I can't be at all mad at that statement,
- 1:07:43Speaker 5: because I was just on drink Champs and I was
- 1:07:45Speaker 5: literally talking about how you know that I went to
- 1:07:49Speaker 5: the award shows and the Grammys obviously year after year
- 1:07:51Speaker 5: after year for the first decade.
- 1:07:54Speaker 6: I mean, I'm over here out selling a lot of
- 1:07:56Speaker 6: these artists and I'm losing.
- 1:07:58Speaker 5: And what I mean by that is I was up
- 1:08:00Speaker 5: against DMX, I was up against jay Z, I was
- 1:08:03Speaker 5: up against eminem in these categories every single time, and
- 1:08:08Speaker 5: I just you know, I had to keep my head,
- 1:08:10Speaker 5: my head held high, and uh, you know, after about
- 1:08:13Speaker 5: a decade or so, I finally started winning. But yes,
- 1:08:16Speaker 5: I would say in terms of competition, in terms of
- 1:08:19Speaker 5: going at each other, in terms of subliminals flying, in
- 1:08:21Speaker 5: terms of direct lyrics flying, it was just extremely competitive. Now,
- 1:08:26Speaker 5: I'm sure anybody in their era is gonna say that's
- 1:08:28Speaker 5: the toughest era.
- 1:08:29Speaker 6: But I can't be mad at that statement. I feel
- 1:08:31Speaker 6: the same way.
- 1:08:32Speaker 11: How important is is family and your wife to you
- 1:08:35Speaker 11: and keeping that that that bond fresh, spicy and new
- 1:08:39Speaker 11: like I seen recently when you gave her I'm not
- 1:08:42Speaker 11: sure what Holliday was. I think it was a birthday
- 1:08:45Speaker 11: or Christmas when you made her do obstacle courses to
- 1:08:47Speaker 11: get a bag and she had to she an't.
- 1:08:49Speaker 8: Get she couldn't climb. But how how how important is
- 1:08:53Speaker 8: that for you.
- 1:08:53Speaker 6: And your relationship. It's extremely important to keep stuff fresh. Man.
- 1:08:57Speaker 5: You can't do the same things over and over again.
- 1:09:00Speaker 5: Gotta keep that's That's just one thing that's in my
- 1:09:02Speaker 5: nature though.
- 1:09:02Speaker 6: Man.
- 1:09:03Speaker 5: I love constantly uh just you know, I love constantly
- 1:09:08Speaker 5: trying new things, especially when it comes to exciting my wife.
- 1:09:12Speaker 1: You know, what I mean.
- 1:09:13Speaker 5: So I think it was Valentine's Day again that you're
- 1:09:15Speaker 5: talking about it. And I made her do a little obstacle. Course,
- 1:09:18Speaker 5: I hate doing the same thing over and.
- 1:09:20Speaker 8: You made it do obstacles. I don't think nobody could do.
- 1:09:22Speaker 11: He made a climb rock walls after climbing rock walls,
- 1:09:24Speaker 11: like you made it do a lot.
- 1:09:25Speaker 8: I'm sitting there like damn.
- 1:09:26Speaker 6: He hosted Fear Factor, So that's on brand.
- 1:09:28Speaker 1: That's on brand.
- 1:09:30Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm an innovator, man, I gotta innovator all walks
- 1:09:33Speaker 5: of my life.
- 1:09:35Speaker 9: One question I got to ask you for you go,
- 1:09:37Speaker 9: was Kat Williams ever really offered your role in Fast
- 1:09:39Speaker 9: and Furious?
- 1:09:41Speaker 6: No? He never, He never, I don't, not that I
- 1:09:44Speaker 6: know of. You said, was he offered a role?
- 1:09:46Speaker 9: Because he said, If I'm not mistaken, I could be
- 1:09:48Speaker 9: misquoting this. I thought he said on Club they offered
- 1:09:52Speaker 9: him to roll, but he didn't take it because he
- 1:09:53Speaker 9: wasn't willing to do what the compromising things that they
- 1:09:58Speaker 9: needed allegedly allegedly.
- 1:10:00Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, And to answer your question, I wouldn't be
- 1:10:02Speaker 5: the right person to ask that question.
- 1:10:04Speaker 6: I have no idea if he was offered a role
- 1:10:06Speaker 6: in the fast or not.
- 1:10:07Speaker 5: I do know that I saw him at Rick Ross's
- 1:10:09Speaker 5: crib some years back, and everything was perfectly fine.
- 1:10:13Speaker 6: But he's a comedian, you know, he tells jokes, So
- 1:10:16Speaker 6: it is what it is.
- 1:10:17Speaker 9: You didn't take you didn't take offense to nothing, even
- 1:10:19Speaker 9: when he was saying things like, oh, you know, it's
- 1:10:21Speaker 9: about seven people with ugly light skin wives.
- 1:10:24Speaker 6: If you do this and you do that, you get
- 1:10:25Speaker 6: an ugly light skin wife and movie.
- 1:10:26Speaker 5: Rolls, Salomene. It was so laughable what he said that
- 1:10:31Speaker 5: I was to me, I was I was just like
- 1:10:34Speaker 5: I couldn't believe what he was saying. You know what
- 1:10:36Speaker 5: I mean, I don't. I took it as laughable because
- 1:10:38Speaker 5: he's a comedian, and that's why I kind of responded
- 1:10:41Speaker 5: with some laughable stuff.
- 1:10:42Speaker 6: Absolutely, could you beat him? Could you beat him in
- 1:10:44Speaker 6: a foot race? You know what? That's a good question,
- 1:10:48Speaker 6: that's a great question. I don't know. We got to
- 1:10:51Speaker 6: because he is fast out there. Sure Well.
