- 8:01Speaker 12: where these these frozen moments, these moments are suspended in time, right,
- 8:05Speaker 12: and so to us we know the context. It was
- 8:07Speaker 12: thirteen years ago but somebody might just see it and
- 8:08Speaker 12: be like, oh, that happened yesterday, right, you know that's it.

- 8:34Speaker 10: I'm great. I'm great. I feel great this morning.
- 8:36Speaker 11: Man.
- 8:36Speaker 12: I had an amazing book called The Upcycled Self.
- 8:42Speaker 2: Ucycled Self. What does that title meant?
- 8:47Speaker 10: You know?
- 8:48Speaker 17: Essentially, it's about, you know, putting those parts of our
- 8:52Speaker 17: of our of ourselves, of our of our past. You
- 8:55Speaker 17: know what I'm saying that you're no longer going to
- 8:57Speaker 17: service or no longer going to service in the same way,
- 9:00Speaker 17: to a to a different use, you know what I'm saying,
- 9:02Speaker 17: to a better use.
- 9:03Speaker 10: Right.
- 9:04Speaker 17: So that's that's what it's about. Really, it's a it's
- 9:07Speaker 17: a self help memoir of sorts.
- 9:09Speaker 5: Yeah, the art of becoming who we are. I always wonder.
- 9:12Speaker 12: Why did it take us so long to discover who
- 9:16Speaker 12: we actually are.
- 9:18Speaker 17: I mean, you know, it's a it's a it's a process,
- 9:20Speaker 17: you know what I mean. It's it's it's valleys and peaks,
- 9:23Speaker 17: and I think it's uh, you know you you you
- 9:25Speaker 17: you arrive at in understanding of who you are, you know, uh,
- 9:29Speaker 17: over time.
- 9:30Speaker 10: So it's really no shortcut, you know what I'm saying.
- 9:33Speaker 17: It's a uh it's a lot of people that think
- 9:36Speaker 17: you can go from A to Z, but you gotta go.
- 9:39Speaker 10: B, C, D, E, F G first, you know saying.
- 9:42Speaker 12: And it teaches you too that you know, everything is parallel,
- 9:46Speaker 12: like there's really nothing behind you.
- 9:48Speaker 17: Absolutely, you know what I mean. Yeah, Yeah, And in
- 9:50Speaker 17: this book is about that too. It's about you know,
- 9:53Speaker 17: accepting uh the present.
- 9:55Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
- 9:55Speaker 17: It's just you know, living, uh, being more intentional about
- 9:59Speaker 17: about your So yeah, that's that's That's where I'm at
- 10:02Speaker 17: with it.
- 10:03Speaker 13: Did you get a chance to deal with all the
- 10:05Speaker 13: trauma before you put it in this book? Or was
- 10:07Speaker 13: it some of it was releasing that trauma by writing
- 10:10Speaker 13: this book.
- 10:10Speaker 17: Yeah, a lot of the trauma, you know, it was
- 10:13Speaker 17: it was addressed in during the process, you know, And
- 10:16Speaker 17: that's That's what made it, you know, just like this
- 10:19Speaker 17: was my therapy. It was really you know, a cathartic
- 10:22Speaker 17: sort of experience, and more so than I'd expected. I mean,
- 10:25Speaker 17: you know, you know your your history, right, but when
- 10:28Speaker 17: it's laid out there, you know what I mean, when
- 10:30Speaker 17: you have it on on the Q cards and you
- 10:33Speaker 17: know what I mean and you're reading it, uh.
- 10:35Speaker 10: You know in a linear sort of way.
- 10:37Speaker 17: I mean, it just hits different man, it hits it
- 10:39Speaker 17: hits differently. And there was something that uh, my co author,
- 10:43Speaker 17: Jasmine Martin was able to, uh to employ like a
- 10:47Speaker 17: tool she was able to use during this process that
- 10:50Speaker 17: it really hit me hard when I was reading one
- 10:52Speaker 17: of the final drafts of the book and it was
- 10:54Speaker 17: you know, she was able to speak. There's an a
- 10:57Speaker 17: side section where you hear, you know, my mother, like
- 11:01Speaker 17: you hear my mother's perspective, and the way she was
- 11:05Speaker 17: able to, uh, you know, just to approximate my mother's
- 11:08Speaker 17: perspective in her voice, That's what really really hit me
- 11:11Speaker 17: hard in the process.
- 11:12Speaker 13: Did you have a question your faith as a kid
- 11:15Speaker 13: growing up because you talk about so much death in
- 11:17Speaker 13: your life and yeah, all the stuff that you've been through,
- 11:19Speaker 13: did you ever say, you know, what, does this really exist?
- 11:22Speaker 13: Is there really a god or whoever you believe it?
- 11:25Speaker 13: Did you have a question your faith at all?
- 11:26Speaker 10: I did?
- 11:26Speaker 17: Yeah, There's definitely been times, you know when you I've
- 11:30Speaker 17: questioned my my faith? Uh you know, or I mean
- 11:34Speaker 17: just on the existential tip, you know what I mean,
- 11:37Speaker 17: like if there's a god, you know, how could all
- 11:40Speaker 17: of this you know, loss and trauma and death, uh,
- 11:44Speaker 17: you know exists. It's some of the stuff that I
- 11:46Speaker 17: write about. How was the world this ugly? If you
- 11:49Speaker 17: made it in your image? You know what I'm saying.
- 11:51Speaker 17: That's one of my bars from a song called Dear God.
- 11:53Speaker 17: But yeah, to answer your question, definitely.
- 11:56Speaker 2: How did you get that back?
- 11:57Speaker 13: And the reason I asked is if you don't know
- 11:59Speaker 13: when you read the book, you're line out that you
- 12:00Speaker 13: lost your father at a young age.
- 12:01Speaker 2: You lost your mom at a young age as well.
- 12:03Speaker 4: I murdered.
- 12:04Speaker 15: Yeah.
- 12:05Speaker 2: Yeah, So how did you get that faith back?
- 12:08Speaker 10: Through the arts?
- 12:09Speaker 17: Visual art, which was my gateway you know, into music,
- 12:14Speaker 17: and and that's that's what really saved my life.
- 12:16Speaker 10: You know what I'm saying.
- 12:16Speaker 17: It was a game changer that I would have been
- 12:18Speaker 17: on the I was already on it. I was on
- 12:20Speaker 17: that path. And you know, me meeting quest love when
- 12:22Speaker 17: I did, which you know I talk about in the book,
- 12:25Speaker 17: and just getting on on that musical trajectory of the
- 12:28Speaker 17: arts is what really saved me.
- 12:30Speaker 11: Now.
- 12:30Speaker 12: I know you was a baby when your father was
- 12:32Speaker 12: tragedally murdered, when a teenager when your mother. Was you
- 12:36Speaker 12: able to process that pain in the moment or was
- 12:39Speaker 12: that something that you dealt with as you got older?
- 12:41Speaker 10: Yeah, I think it's something that I'm still dealing with.
- 12:44Speaker 17: I definitely was not able to process it in the moment,
- 12:48Speaker 17: you know, no matter how hard I tried, right, you know,
- 12:50Speaker 17: I wanted to feel all the emotion that that you
- 12:53Speaker 17: you know, you expect you would expect one to feel
- 12:56Speaker 17: when you experienced that sort of loss. But I mean
- 12:58Speaker 17: for me, it, I mean, it took forever before I
- 13:01Speaker 17: was even able to shed.
- 13:02Speaker 10: A tear about, you know, my mother's murder, you know.
- 13:06Speaker 17: And I think it's just because there was so many
- 13:08Speaker 17: layers of callous and in scar tissue to to sort
- 13:12Speaker 17: of work through.
- 13:12Speaker 10: And that's what that's what this book is about.
- 13:14Speaker 17: It's about that armor that you know, at one point
- 13:17Speaker 17: in time it might it might serve as a defense mechanism.
- 13:20Speaker 10: It might you know, protect you.
- 13:22Speaker 17: But as we move through life and you get into
- 13:24Speaker 17: different spaces, you start to interact with different people, and
- 13:27Speaker 17: you know, you're now you in these different dynamics, they
- 13:30Speaker 17: no longer service in the same way.
- 13:31Speaker 12: What about vengeance and revenge Like, how do you ultimately
- 13:35Speaker 12: let let that go?
- 13:36Speaker 10: I mean, did you? Yeah?
- 13:38Speaker 17: Yeah, I mean I feeling I definitely feel like I have.
- 13:41Speaker 17: It's that that was just a wise move. I think
- 13:43Speaker 17: I definitely came to to to understand as a young person,
- 13:47Speaker 17: when I was still a teenager that uh, you know,
- 13:50Speaker 17: holding on to uh, to to negative energy in that way,
- 13:55Speaker 17: you know, it's as as detrimental to you know, the
- 13:58Speaker 17: beholder as is to whoever you're trying to project it upon.
- 14:02Speaker 17: So there, Yeah, I've never really sat with, uh, you know,
- 14:06Speaker 17: the whole vengeance in that way, you know what I
- 14:08Speaker 17: mean as far as like in the in my dad's case,
- 14:12Speaker 17: uh it was it's still it was never a solved murder.
- 14:15Speaker 17: But in my mom's case, uh, you know, they they
- 14:18Speaker 17: they apprehended someone shortly after and uh, you know we
- 14:22Speaker 17: went through the trial and everything, and you know, he
- 14:24Speaker 17: received the sentence, and then there was a mistrial of
- 14:27Speaker 17: it all and he was we had to sit through
- 14:29Speaker 17: it again. So I sat through actually through my mother's
- 14:31Speaker 17: murder trial twice, you know. And but in that, you know,
- 14:35Speaker 17: once it, once it was done, it was something that
- 14:38Speaker 17: I had to let go of, you know what I mean,
- 14:39Speaker 17: in order for me to be able to move forward.
- 14:42Speaker 13: So and you still had love for fulfilling regardless of
- 14:45Speaker 13: everything that happened.
- 14:46Speaker 10: That got to be tough to absolutely, Yeah, yeah, I have.
- 14:48Speaker 17: I have, absolutely have love, you know, for for Philadelphia.
- 14:51Speaker 10: That's that's the place that made me.
- 14:53Speaker 17: But you know it's also it's one of those you know,
- 14:55Speaker 17: it could make you, it could break you, you know
- 14:56Speaker 17: what I mean.
- 14:57Speaker 10: And it's the city of brotherly love. That love. It
- 15:00Speaker 10: has always been a tough love, all right.
- 15:03Speaker 13: We got more with Black Thought when we come back,
- 15:04Speaker 13: don't move.
- 15:05Speaker 2: It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club.
- 15:11Speaker 13: Morning everybody at j Envy, Charlamagne, the guy we are
- 15:14Speaker 13: the Breakfast Club were still kicking it with Black Thought. Charlomagne,
- 15:17Speaker 13: I was gonna ask with the roots, when you guys
- 15:19Speaker 13: created the roots, When did y'all start making money? And
- 15:21Speaker 13: the reason I asked, is because it was new, Like
- 15:24Speaker 13: when when the Roots came out, it was something that
- 15:26Speaker 13: hip hop hasn't seen on that platform or respected on
- 15:29Speaker 13: that platform. So when did the Roots finally break through
- 15:31Speaker 13: and was like, nah, this is hip hop's bad.
- 15:33Speaker 17: I want to say around two thousand and six.
- 15:38Speaker 13: So was it hard to always, you know, break into
- 15:40Speaker 13: a market, sell it to a promoter because I just
- 15:43Speaker 13: remember the Roots so early on and just like this
- 15:45Speaker 13: is just so different, and sometimes in hip hop different,
- 15:48Speaker 13: it's hard to break through.
- 15:49Speaker 10: It was very hard for us.
- 15:50Speaker 17: It was you know, super difficult to what because we
- 15:55Speaker 17: didn't really look or sound or feel like anything else
- 15:58Speaker 17: that was that was happening. It was a lot of uh,
- 16:01Speaker 17: you know, we always had to prove ourselves right and
- 16:04Speaker 17: and you know, I mean it took so long for
- 16:06Speaker 17: us to even break even financially, and that's something that
- 16:11Speaker 17: just came over time. Uh, you know, just paying those
- 16:14Speaker 17: dues on the road, you know what I'm saying, Like
- 16:16Speaker 17: you start at one point touring and then you're able
- 16:18Speaker 17: to sort of get your stock up just through when
- 16:21Speaker 17: you keep coming back, you.
- 16:22Speaker 10: Know what I mean.
- 16:23Speaker 17: So we were able to sort of build on on
- 16:25Speaker 17: on that relevance and it was wild. It was like
- 16:27Speaker 17: when we finally hit a point, you know, six o seven,
- 16:31Speaker 17: you know where we felt like, yeah, you know, all
- 16:33Speaker 17: of these years of two hundred plus days on the
- 16:36Speaker 17: road started to pay off. That's when, you know, there
- 16:39Speaker 17: was a whole seismic shift in the way people started
- 16:42Speaker 17: to receive you know, people were receiving music and you know,
- 16:44Speaker 17: concert tickets and all that thing. It was, you know,
- 16:48Speaker 17: we went through a revolution with the you know, streaming
- 16:51Speaker 17: and that whole thing. So and then that's when the
- 16:54Speaker 17: Tonight Show opportunity presented itself, and that's what made it
- 16:56Speaker 17: make sense. It was like, you know, we had just reached,
- 16:59Speaker 17: finally reach stuff.
- 17:00Speaker 10: We hit a stride and and everything was changing.
- 17:03Speaker 4: You know.
- 17:03Speaker 17: So yeah, that that in that uncertainty, uh you know,
- 17:07Speaker 17: the the consistency of the day job, in that platform
- 17:12Speaker 17: that it would it would represent you know, it looked
- 17:14Speaker 17: really good.
- 17:15Speaker 2: Was there a particular moment?
- 17:16Speaker 4: Was it?
- 17:16Speaker 2: Was it a Jay Z using y'all a lot, or like,
- 17:19Speaker 2: was it a particular moment that caused that shift?
- 17:23Speaker 10: You know, when we started to make some bread, Yeah,
- 17:26Speaker 10: I meant.
- 17:27Speaker 12: Get recognized by enough to where the Tonight Show was
- 17:30Speaker 12: like ya want that well.
- 17:31Speaker 10: You know, yeah, and I think it was just over time, man.
- 17:33Speaker 17: You know, we you know, we've been around for I
- 17:37Speaker 17: mean blessed enough to have been around for such a
- 17:40Speaker 17: long time that you know. A good example is, you know,
- 17:43Speaker 17: there's a festival that takes place in in in Denmark and.
- 17:47Speaker 10: Copenhagen every year.
- 17:49Speaker 17: It's called Ross Guild, and uh, you know, we started
- 17:51Speaker 17: playing at Ross Guild before we were even you know,
- 17:55Speaker 17: allowed on the actual festival grounds, like we were you know,
- 17:57Speaker 17: two tenths you know, out on the main strip right
- 18:01Speaker 17: and you know, we we worked our way up from
- 18:04Speaker 17: you know, the outskirts to the tenth you know, right.
- 18:06Speaker 10: On the borderline to you know, uh you know, third
- 18:10Speaker 10: and fourth.
- 18:10Speaker 17: Stages until we came back and we were able to headline,
- 18:14Speaker 17: you know with it was the Roots and Bruce Springsteen
- 18:17Speaker 17: co headline. So you know, but yeah, that was over
- 18:20Speaker 17: you know what I'm saying many years and it's like
- 18:23Speaker 17: Roskilda isn't like we've.
- 18:24Speaker 10: Done that around the world, you.
- 18:26Speaker 17: Know what I mean, just because we've been able to
- 18:28Speaker 17: keep up appearances. So yeah, yeah, I guess we just
- 18:32Speaker 17: paid our dues, you know. Yeah, and then once we
- 18:34Speaker 17: got you know, we got into Late Night and we
- 18:36Speaker 17: started doing that thing. It definitely represented a change in
- 18:39Speaker 17: our career where we haven't been able to tour in
- 18:41Speaker 17: that same way. So yeah, everything that we had done
- 18:44Speaker 17: up until that point, it's just been a blessing. And
- 18:47Speaker 17: it's this sort of thing where we probably had taken
- 18:49Speaker 17: it for granted and thought we'd be able to do
- 18:51Speaker 17: it forever.
- 18:51Speaker 10: But you know, here we are and now.
- 18:54Speaker 17: Yeah, it's uh, it's just more of a blessing and
- 18:56Speaker 17: just a greater opportunity when we do get to go
- 18:59Speaker 17: out and still touch the fans.
- 19:01Speaker 10: In that way. Now.
- 19:01Speaker 12: Now, when you decided to write about the altercation you
- 19:05Speaker 12: had request love, Yeah, back back in the nineties, you
- 19:07Speaker 12: have to ask him if you could speak on that.
- 19:09Speaker 17: No, I didn't have to ask him because he's written
- 19:11Speaker 17: about it in one of his books. And it's the
- 19:14Speaker 17: sort of thing that you know, like, that's my brother,
- 19:16Speaker 17: So I mean, I know if it's good or not,
- 19:18Speaker 17: you know, And.
- 19:19Speaker 2: Also that's it's like to me, those are best relationships.
- 19:23Speaker 12: Oh yeah, if you can have, if you can fight
- 19:25Speaker 12: and then get over it, yeah, hey man, Yeah.
- 19:28Speaker 17: And you know, it really takes it takes it takes
- 19:31Speaker 17: love for somebody to get you that upset, right, you
- 19:34Speaker 17: know what I mean, Only my my loved ones have
- 19:36Speaker 17: ever really been able to get me that ribbed up, right.
- 19:39Speaker 17: So it's it's there's there's something in that. But yeah,
- 19:42Speaker 17: you know I was. We were all kids at that point,
- 19:45Speaker 17: you know. Now now I'm an adult, so I would
- 19:47Speaker 17: I would, I would have dealt with that situation a
- 19:49Speaker 17: completely different way.
- 19:50Speaker 2: How long did y'all not speak?
- 19:52Speaker 10: I mean we lived together, maybe we didn't speak for
- 19:54Speaker 10: the train ride home.
- 19:55Speaker 5: But it's like once we got.
- 19:57Speaker 2: Back to its and and how was that I had
- 20:01Speaker 2: to be uncomfortable?
- 20:02Speaker 4: Awkward? Like, bro, yeah it was.
- 20:04Speaker 10: It was definitely, you know, it was awkward. It was uncomfortable.
- 20:07Speaker 17: You know, It's the sort of thing that I would
- 20:10Speaker 17: laugh about, you know, almost most immediately. Like that's just
- 20:13Speaker 17: where I come from.
- 20:14Speaker 5: And the name black thoughts, where exactly did that derive from?
- 20:19Speaker 17: It derived from you know, my my, my time as
- 20:24Speaker 17: a visual artist and uh, you know, just dealing with
- 20:27Speaker 17: paints and you know, just the color palette. I realized
- 20:32Speaker 17: that you know, so much more went into you know,
- 20:35Speaker 17: arriving at the color black, you know what I mean?
- 20:37Speaker 10: Uh, than than one would think.
- 20:38Speaker 17: There's so many different nuances and colors, other colors that
- 20:42Speaker 17: go into you know, arriving at the color black.
- 20:44Speaker 10: So that's sort of what it.
- 20:45Speaker 17: Would it began as, and over time it's it's evolved
- 20:49Speaker 17: into something you know, that has taken far, far greater
- 20:54Speaker 17: meaning you know both I guess to me and and
- 20:56Speaker 17: to you know, to people who support me. So yeah,
- 21:00Speaker 17: at the time I didn't think, you know, I wasn't
- 21:02Speaker 17: thinking of black thought as the concept of a people
- 21:06Speaker 17: you know what I'm saying, But that's sort of what
- 21:09Speaker 17: what has come to mean.
- 21:10Speaker 12: Absolutely, Yeah, well man, black thoughts book man, that's right,
- 21:13Speaker 12: cyclesycle selves.
- 21:15Speaker 13: Yes, we appreciate you for Jordan said, what do you
- 21:17Speaker 13: want people to get out of this book? If they
- 21:19Speaker 13: if they can get one thing out of it, what
- 21:20Speaker 13: do you want them to get out of this?
- 21:22Speaker 17: You know, if if if one person is able to
- 21:24Speaker 17: see themselves, you know, better understand themselves or better understand
- 21:28Speaker 17: you know, their path, their their lived experience. If this
- 21:32Speaker 17: is going to be you know, an entree into someone
- 21:34Speaker 17: else being able to start to work through their stuff,
- 21:37Speaker 17: and you know, shed some of those layers of armor
- 21:40Speaker 17: that are no longer useful, you know what I mean,
- 21:43Speaker 17: those layers of callous and in scar tissue. Then not yeah,
- 21:48Speaker 17: then it's it's it's a win. And I've already you know,
- 21:50Speaker 17: experienced that. You know, I've already had some of those conversations.
- 21:54Speaker 17: So I feel this book has already been helpful.
- 21:56Speaker 5: All right, And y'all get nominated program this year.

- 22:43Speaker 12: type of validation?
- 22:44Speaker 10: I do?
- 22:44Speaker 4: I do.
- 22:45Speaker 17: I still appreciate that that that sort of validation. You
- 22:48Speaker 17: know what I mean. That's not you know what I
- 22:50Speaker 17: do it for, but it definitely uh yeah, I mean
- 22:54Speaker 17: it feels. It's great to be recognized, you know what
- 22:56Speaker 17: I mean?
- 22:57Speaker 13: Absolutely well, it's black thought. We appreciate you. Pick up
- 22:59Speaker 13: his book, The Upcycled Self. It is the Breakfast Club.
- 23:02Speaker 2: Good morning, it's.
- 23:07Speaker 4: Topic time.
- 23:09Speaker 3: Eight hundred five five five one to join into the
- 23:12Speaker 3: discussion with the Breakfast Club.
- 23:15Speaker 2: Morning everybody.
- 23:16Speaker 13: It's DJ Envy Charlamagne to God. We are the Breakfast Club.
- 23:20Speaker 13: Now if you're just joining us, we're talking about a
- 23:22Speaker 13: situation that comes out of blue Face and Krashan's relationship. Now,
- 23:26Speaker 13: blue Face allegedly took a DNA test, uh secretly and
- 23:30Speaker 13: it proved that he is not the father of their child.
- 23:33Speaker 13: So we're asking, is it disrespectful to ask for a
- 23:36Speaker 13: DNA test and is it even more disrespectful to secretly doing.
- 23:39Speaker 7: And you got to say, we don't know for sure
- 23:41Speaker 7: if like that DNA test and.
- 23:42Speaker 6: What he said is real.
- 23:43Speaker 2: Yeah, we said that leg yes, So I mean he's
- 23:47Speaker 2: saying he took it and it's not his, but we
- 23:48Speaker 2: don't know for sure.
- 23:49Speaker 12: It don't even matter about them, no, Yeah, let's let's
- 23:52Speaker 12: let's talk about the situation.
- 23:53Speaker 2: Yeah, so that is the question.
- 23:55Speaker 13: So, how would you feel if if you were dating somebody,
- 23:57Speaker 13: you were pregnant and a dude got a DNA test
- 23:59Speaker 13: and you didn't.
- 24:00Speaker 7: Know how serious? Are we like locked in or we
- 24:02Speaker 7: just like having fun?
- 24:03Speaker 2: Doesn't matter?
- 24:04Speaker 7: Yeah, yes, it doesn't matter. If we just having fun
- 24:07Speaker 7: and like we are honest about the fact that we're
- 24:09Speaker 7: dating other people and that happened, I would have to
- 24:11Speaker 7: respect it. I would want you to be able to
- 24:13Speaker 7: just know me and trust me, but I'll have to
- 24:15Speaker 7: respect it because we are obviously dealing with.
- 24:18Speaker 12: Other people, and I would expect you to get a
- 24:20Speaker 12: DNA test. That'd be the first thing I'd do. If
- 24:22Speaker 12: it was just a girl that I was out here
- 24:23Speaker 12: having fun with and she got pregnant, the first thing
- 24:26Speaker 12: I'm going to do is say, let's get a DNA test.
- 24:29Speaker 13: But even if you're in a relationship and you feel
- 24:31Speaker 13: possibly that baby is not yours, you wouldn't tell a
- 24:33Speaker 13: person because that ruins the whole relationship, that relationship, that
- 24:36Speaker 13: ruins everything what you might want to know, right, because
- 24:38Speaker 13: what's the first thing. Usually a guy's mama say that
- 24:41Speaker 13: baby don't look like you. If the baby say that,
- 24:42Speaker 13: baby don't look like you.
- 24:43Speaker 7: But you also know too, as a guy, what you're
- 24:45Speaker 7: doing and how often you're doing it, and how locked
- 24:47Speaker 7: in y'all are.
- 24:48Speaker 2: So I don't know how often the woman is doing
- 24:50Speaker 2: it and how much you know.
- 24:51Speaker 7: They could be doing it under each other all the time, though,
- 24:54Speaker 7: like that.
- 24:54Speaker 2: Don't mean nothing, really, No, women are like cats. Men
- 24:57Speaker 2: are like y'all.
- 24:58Speaker 12: See men when they go out there cheat, they get
- 25:00Speaker 12: you know, they they do it in the open, in
- 25:03Speaker 12: front of everybody, like you'd be driving. You're driving down
- 25:06Speaker 12: the road, you then pass the yard and seeing two
- 25:09Speaker 12: dogs stuck together.
- 25:10Speaker 2: You ain't never.
- 25:10Speaker 12: Seen two cats having sex with each other ever. That's
- 25:14Speaker 12: why men are like dogs. Women are like cats smarter.
- 25:16Speaker 12: So I don't think it's disrespectful, No, sneaky, I don't
- 25:19Speaker 12: think it's disrespectful.
- 25:20Speaker 2: You know, to go do what?
- 25:21Speaker 15: Uh you know?
- 25:22Speaker 2: Blue face?
- 25:22Speaker 4: Did you know?
- 25:23Speaker 12: You can't tell people, trust their intuition, trust their gut,
- 25:26Speaker 12: And then when they do tell them they're being disrespectful.
- 25:29Speaker 2: Because if a.
- 25:29Speaker 12: Man sneaks and does it, and he's right about not
- 25:31Speaker 12: being the father being mad at him for sneaking and
- 25:34Speaker 12: getting the DNA test.
- 25:35Speaker 5: That's just a deflection.
- 25:38Speaker 7: But even if the woman really thought that he was
- 25:39Speaker 7: a father, yes, but like it's not like she's pinning
- 25:43Speaker 7: the kid on you. She just really thought you were
- 25:44Speaker 7: the fire.
- 25:44Speaker 2: You put the other options on the table.
- 25:46Speaker 13: You should have put the other the kid.
- 25:48Speaker 5: Did you put the other option on the table?
- 25:53Speaker 7: Said that in the beginning. I said, if we were
- 25:54Speaker 7: just having fun, and I'm but if you're.
- 25:56Speaker 2: Not having what if you're in a relationship but you
- 25:58Speaker 2: did creep.
- 25:59Speaker 7: Off, well then that's messed up. Of course that's messed up.
- 26:01Speaker 12: So you can't be mad at a person for having
- 26:03Speaker 12: some intuition and feeling like they should go get a
- 26:05Speaker 12: DNA test.
- 26:05Speaker 15: Not at all.
- 26:06Speaker 2: Hello, who's this hell?
- 26:07Speaker 1: Hey?
- 26:07Speaker 2: This is hey Jay. Look I want to talk to us.
- 26:10Speaker 4: What's your thoughts.
- 26:10Speaker 18: So I don't think it's disrespectful at all to ask
- 26:13Speaker 18: for a DNA test. It is disrespectful to get one
- 26:16Speaker 18: behind the parents' back. But you could just straight up
- 26:19Speaker 18: everyone and if they deny the dad, get the DNA
- 26:23Speaker 18: test and you know they can take them on the court.
- 26:26Speaker 2: I think you got to protect your peace, man.
- 26:28Speaker 12: I get what you're saying, but you know, asking for
- 26:30Speaker 12: a DNA test is going to start a whole other
- 26:33Speaker 12: audible the household. Correct, So so I wouldn't much rather
- 26:36Speaker 12: let me go do this on my own.
- 26:38Speaker 7: But if you do it on your own and then
- 26:40Speaker 7: the kid is not yours and you decide to stay,
- 26:42Speaker 7: do you didn't have to have a conversation about the
- 26:44Speaker 7: fact that you snuck it like it's a whole thing.
- 26:46Speaker 2: No, No, because the reason you stuck was true.
- 26:49Speaker 7: Regardless of what you decide to stay, You're not gonna
- 26:52Speaker 7: You're not gonna say nothing to the.
- 26:53Speaker 5: Woman I would be.
- 26:54Speaker 12: I mean, I'm not saying that that can't happen, but
- 26:57Speaker 12: I think it's very rare to find the man who
- 27:00Speaker 12: snucking did the DNA test, found out the kid wasn't here,
- 27:03Speaker 12: and said, I'm just gonna keep this to myself.
- 27:05Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 27:06Speaker 7: It's cold, people need heating a hot bed, you stupid d.
- 27:10Speaker 2: Yes, yes, indeed, what's your thoughts? D this happened to me.
- 27:16Speaker 19: It's not disrespectful to ask for a DNA test, but
- 27:19Speaker 19: it's disrespectful all my language, But it is this respectful
- 27:23Speaker 19: to go behind my map. It's by my child without
- 27:26Speaker 19: without me know, very disrespectful.
- 27:28Speaker 1: I feel like whether we messing around or not.
- 27:31Speaker 18: And I say it's.
- 27:32Speaker 19: Your baby and you believe it, then he's like that,
- 27:35Speaker 19: go for it, don't believe it.
- 27:36Speaker 8: Got to get a test, like just.
- 27:39Speaker 2: Be real, Well, technically somebody's back is.
- 27:45Speaker 12: Well, technically I'm not just swapping your child. I'm swapping
- 27:48Speaker 12: my child because it's still our child until I find
- 27:50Speaker 12: out it's not.
- 27:52Speaker 1: What is the act.
- 27:53Speaker 8: I'm doing it for me around as.
- 27:54Speaker 12: Well, or just I don't want to go through the beef.
- 27:57Speaker 12: You know, you know good and well, you're not gonna
- 27:58Speaker 12: take that. Well if a man with you and be
- 28:00Speaker 12: like I'm gonna put you out, No you're not.
- 28:03Speaker 13: You're only gonna go through the beef if I find
- 28:05Speaker 13: out the child is not mine.
- 28:07Speaker 2: Child is hours.
- 28:07Speaker 13: I ain't gonna come on like what the problem?
- 28:13Speaker 5: Just like I feel like, mom, you know what the
- 28:17Speaker 5: problem is?
- 28:19Speaker 13: That doesn't He looks like the would.
- 28:23Speaker 7: Make it even worse. If you say that to me,
- 28:25Speaker 7: you better be ready.
- 28:26Speaker 13: I say, unless your kids old enough, and they'll be like, mommy,
- 28:28Speaker 13: why did daddy put that cute tip in my mouth?
- 28:30Speaker 2: Today?
- 28:30Speaker 9: Did?
- 28:31Speaker 2: Now you're in trouble in trouble. There is.
- 28:33Speaker 12: There is no woman on earth that's gonna take that well.
- 28:36Speaker 12: No a man coming to her saying, I don't think
- 28:38Speaker 12: this baby is mine? Can we get a DNA too?
- 28:40Speaker 7: And he looked like the other one is that.
- 28:43Speaker 12: The only way a woman takes that well is if
- 28:44Speaker 12: y'all not not in the relationship, if y'all was just
- 28:46Speaker 12: sleeping around with each other and you know, it was
- 28:49Speaker 12: still I don't think it's like.
- 28:52Speaker 7: She can't you can't really be mad about it, but
- 28:54Speaker 7: you still be.
- 28:55Speaker 13: Like if she said the child is yours and you're like, well,
- 28:58Speaker 13: I wanted to get a test.
- 28:59Speaker 12: If you're just sleeping around, if we don't have no
- 29:01Speaker 12: relationship but we don't know each other, I don't think
- 29:03Speaker 12: does it.
- 29:03Speaker 7: You gotta be practical and you cannot be upset. But
- 29:06Speaker 7: in the inside and in her group chat, she's gonna
- 29:08Speaker 7: be like, y'all know he asked me for it, Like
- 29:10Speaker 7: she gonna feel little way a little bit.
- 29:11Speaker 2: Hello, who's this?
- 29:12Speaker 20: Hello?
- 29:13Speaker 9: This is Race Stair.
- 29:14Speaker 2: Hey Rachel, talk to us. What's your thoughts?
- 29:17Speaker 1: So I'm big on telling everybody, like, get a DNA test,
- 29:21Speaker 1: Get a DNA test. It's mama's baby. Daddy's maybe so
- 29:25Speaker 1: rather y'all together. No matter what's going on, a DNA
- 29:29Speaker 1: test should be had. Nobody have to sneak into it
- 29:32Speaker 1: because it should already be something that's disgusted. That's something
- 29:35Speaker 1: you should talk about before you even have a kid
- 29:38Speaker 1: with a person. I want to make sure there's not
- 29:40Speaker 1: ayb I'm gonna get a DNA test.
- 29:42Speaker 12: Yeah, you know, I just thought about something too, Like,
- 29:44Speaker 12: you know, if you go to a woman and you
- 29:47Speaker 12: ask for a DNA test, if she knows that it's
- 29:50Speaker 12: a possibility the baby may not be hers, she probably
- 29:54Speaker 12: would get highly highly upset because you only it's two
- 29:57Speaker 12: things go have you gethighly upset because you know the
- 29:59Speaker 12: baby may not be his? Are you gonna get highly
- 30:01Speaker 12: upset because he asked you? But if he asked you
- 30:04Speaker 12: and you know it's his, you're probably just gonna be
- 30:06Speaker 12: just sitting back waiting to give him that little smirk
- 30:08Speaker 12: like now what?
- 30:09Speaker 1: But that's not so I wouldn't get mad like my
- 30:12Speaker 1: baby daddy. I was like, please, do you get a
- 30:14Speaker 1: DNA test? Like I tried a lot of them and everything,
- 30:17Speaker 1: like it's the possibility. I don't know. You know, I'm
- 30:25Speaker 1: gonna tell you why I did it though my baby daddy.
- 30:27Speaker 1: My baby daddy is from the country in South Carolina.
- 30:32Speaker 1: He feels as if he don't have to do anything
- 30:36Speaker 1: because it's not proof that it's.
- 30:37Speaker 2: His part from corner.
- 30:40Speaker 1: He's from Dylan.
- 30:42Speaker 2: Yeah, that's country country.
- 30:43Speaker 1: So he feels like he don't got to do nothing
- 30:45Speaker 1: without proof. So when I was putting them on child support,
- 30:48Speaker 1: I'm like, just get a DNA set. Just get one.
- 30:50Speaker 1: Just get one, you know, child support. They asked you, like,
- 30:53Speaker 1: do you want to get one? He will not get one,
- 30:56Speaker 1: and he finally confessed, like I already knew it was.
- 31:00Speaker 1: I ain't had no doubt about it. I'm like, you
- 31:03Speaker 1: still should have got one, just for your security, like
- 31:07Speaker 1: that black and white paper would have made you feel
- 31:10Speaker 1: a whole lot better. That's right, you would not get one,
- 31:15Speaker 1: But I feel like everybody still get one. I got
- 31:17Speaker 1: five brothers. I been telling my brothers all the time.
- 31:19Speaker 1: You don't know what these women do.
- 31:21Speaker 5: That's right.
- 31:22Speaker 7: Even married people y'all think should do this as well too.
- 31:25Speaker 2: No, no, not married people.
- 31:27Speaker 12: I see you just in a relationship with somebody and
- 31:29Speaker 12: y'all not committed, or if y'all just sleeping around.
- 31:33Speaker 5: Yeah, I want.
- 31:34Speaker 7: That piece in my life. I don't want to have
- 31:35Speaker 7: to go through that.
- 31:36Speaker 12: But I think any any time you have any intuition,
- 31:39Speaker 12: any inkling that they may not be all.
- 31:41Speaker 2: Get a DNA test that feeling for a reason.
- 31:44Speaker 10: Hello, who's this?
- 31:47Speaker 2: It was something? Talk to us, brother man.
- 31:49Speaker 4: I used to work with a guy right he found.
- 31:52Speaker 8: Out it wasn't here.
- 31:54Speaker 4: When he was like, where you going?
- 31:57Speaker 1: She said she still and said I'm going to see
- 31:59Speaker 1: my daddy.
- 32:00Speaker 5: And he was like, what, so you have to get
- 32:04Speaker 5: a DNA test?
- 32:05Speaker 1: I heard as she's from the meditatory DNA.
- 32:09Speaker 5: Once want the woman have the baby? Hu, they're gonna
- 32:13Speaker 5: have a DNA test? Is goodbye?
- 32:19Speaker 10: Sir?
- 32:19Speaker 2: What the hell that? I don't know? Jesus Christ? What's
- 32:22Speaker 2: the mother of the story? More the stories?
- 32:24Speaker 12: What I said earlier, If you have any you know inkling,
- 32:27Speaker 12: or you know your instincts are telling you it may
- 32:29Speaker 12: not be yours?
- 32:30Speaker 2: What's wrong with getting the dnahs?
- 32:31Speaker 7: Moral can also be just pull out?
- 32:33Speaker 2: What are you talking about?
- 32:34Speaker 7: Don't get pregnant by somebody that's gonna have to question you.
- 32:36Speaker 2: You'll get pregnant soon if you go in with the
- 32:37Speaker 2: pullout message.
- 32:38Speaker 5: Just what why what I'm just saying.
- 32:42Speaker 12: I want you to get on this radio sometimes and
- 32:44Speaker 12: defy Delaware stereo.
- 32:47Speaker 2: We call it dirty Delaware, and all you.
- 32:50Speaker 12: Do every time you get the opportunity to guest holds
- 32:52Speaker 12: on Breakfast Club is reinforced the dirty Delaware stereo tech
- 32:57Speaker 12: dirt coming from a woman.
- 32:58Speaker 7: They're not using kind of if the person is potentially pregnant,
- 33:01Speaker 7: so you're not going to use them.
- 33:06Speaker 5: Guys, don't be like that.
- 33:09Speaker 7: Don't don't with that discuss I don't like that.
- 33:13Speaker 4: Alright.
- 33:13Speaker 2: It's the Breakfast Club of One.
- 33:15Speaker 4: The Breakfast Club.
- 33:18Speaker 9: Morning Everybody.
- 33:19Speaker 2: It's d J n V Charlamage the guy. We are
- 33:22Speaker 2: the Breakfast Club. Our special guest host Chris kling his hair.
- 33:25Speaker 9: What's up?
- 33:25Speaker 2: Have we got some special guests in the building.
- 33:27Speaker 9: Our guy you can in his hair?
- 33:30Speaker 2: Yes, with a special guest Klondike Blonde.
- 33:32Speaker 9: We got a future superstar in the building, integrated to
- 33:36Speaker 9: you all.
- 33:36Speaker 2: Yeah, no seen, but he hasn't been here. But you
- 33:39Speaker 2: can do it every damn thing out there.
- 33:41Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean, I'm good man.
- 33:43Speaker 21: I'm excited about you know, obviously, here to talk about
- 33:45Speaker 21: the new show that we launching on b t V
- 33:48Speaker 21: H one but just working man, you know how to
- 33:50Speaker 21: go just the grinds, doing my morning show thing too.
- 33:53Speaker 21: So that's probably why I really ain't been able to
- 33:55Speaker 21: be up here.
- 33:55Speaker 12: What's your superstar? Speaking of you the superstars, how do
- 33:58Speaker 12: you feel about your son being a better rapper than
- 33:59Speaker 12: you guys?
- 34:00Speaker 2: Amazing?
- 34:02Speaker 10: Yes?
- 34:08Speaker 9: Who you think?
- 34:09Speaker 11: I I go?
- 34:10Speaker 9: I want none of my wax sauce to get on him.
- 34:12Speaker 9: So he's doing I'm calling back now.
- 34:15Speaker 2: Somebody said he over the ghost right for you?
- 34:18Speaker 9: He should?
- 34:19Speaker 21: Nah, My son is amazing man, And like seeing like that.
- 34:21Speaker 21: You know, when I'm young, kids really got the natural
- 34:23Speaker 21: swag like I'll be. He'd be putting me up on
- 34:25Speaker 21: the new game and stuff. And the dope thing is
- 34:28Speaker 21: he's a rapper, but he's also a producer too, so
- 34:30Speaker 21: he's really into that space of like making beats and
- 34:32Speaker 21: DJ and gaming and all that stuff. If he wants
- 34:34Speaker 21: to do that, I see he really got it. He
- 34:37Speaker 21: y'all see him rocking them stage and doing it every
- 34:39Speaker 21: night on tour with his mom.
- 34:40Speaker 12: So that's pressure though, right, because he's Nick Cannon's damn right,
- 34:43Speaker 12: there's no pressure.
- 34:44Speaker 9: Of being Nick Cannon's.
- 34:46Speaker 21: You're still a superstar, but now being Mariah's daughter and
- 34:50Speaker 21: singing yes true, that's the presson. So that's why even
- 34:54Speaker 21: with Monroe, we gotta doing things like I taught her
- 34:56Speaker 21: how to play guitar. We still I want her to
- 34:58Speaker 21: have other aspect. She really wants to be an actress too.
- 35:01Speaker 21: She's talking about she wants to go to the Yale
- 35:03Speaker 21: Drama School and make sure like if she.
- 35:05Speaker 5: Really gets like she's taking it serious.
- 35:07Speaker 21: And she's already talking about, you know, getting her her
- 35:10Speaker 21: degree in theater at Yale. So like just trying to,
- 35:14Speaker 21: you know, as a father, trying to really guide them
- 35:16Speaker 21: in the direction. And we never pushed it on them,
- 35:18Speaker 21: but the fact that now they're really starting to embrace
- 35:20Speaker 21: it as they get into the teenage world, really want
- 35:22Speaker 21: to cultivate it.
- 35:23Speaker 13: So I'm proud of them. Man, they do it skip
- 35:25Speaker 13: with one of your child's moms, Yes a lot. Yeah,
- 35:28Speaker 13: any other child mom be like, why do you do
- 35:30Speaker 13: so many skits with what's interesting? Because like I mean,
- 35:32Speaker 13: everybody kind of got they lane. So like on my
- 35:35Speaker 13: morning show, The Daily Cannon, I have, you know, one
- 35:39Speaker 13: of the mothers of my children, she's in radio.
- 35:41Speaker 9: She dj Abby Daily Rosa.
- 35:42Speaker 21: So that's kind of her space, so our social commentary
- 35:46Speaker 21: and daily conversation, that's her lane. Brie is on selling
- 35:49Speaker 21: Sunset and like kind of like a social media gurgle
- 35:52Speaker 21: and stuff, So that's her lane, and everybody even behind
- 35:55Speaker 21: the scenes, like you know, some of them have like foundations,
- 35:57Speaker 21: and we do a lot of philanthropic work.
- 35:59Speaker 5: You'll see that someone literally like doctors.
- 36:01Speaker 21: And writing op EDGs and BCIs, so you'll be able
- 36:05Speaker 21: like the people that specifically the mothers and my children
- 36:07Speaker 21: that I have in my life, I try to cultivate
- 36:09Speaker 21: whatever it is that they're into, and even kind of
- 36:12Speaker 21: goes all the way back to the business of like
- 36:13Speaker 21: future superstars, Like I feel like I'm in that season.
- 36:16Speaker 21: I'm in my era of just helping others and kind
- 36:18Speaker 21: of amplifying whatever it is that they got going.
- 36:20Speaker 9: And sometimes it just happened to be my baby mama.
- 36:22Speaker 21: Yeah, that's always been your thing though, I mean you too, man,
- 36:26Speaker 21: you don't get enough credit for all that you do
- 36:28Speaker 21: is you know, helping people and putting them on and
- 36:30Speaker 21: allowing them to shine. So I feel like we're kind
- 36:33Speaker 21: of those guys that get to say, all right, if
- 36:35Speaker 21: we see something in somebody, we can kind of put
- 36:38Speaker 21: the mechanisms.
- 36:38Speaker 12: Around them and allow them to do their thing allfreasons
- 36:41Speaker 12: to God. There it is now Klondake Blond, how are you, man?
- 36:44Speaker 7: I'm doing goody? How are you?
- 36:46Speaker 2: I'm blessed?
- 36:46Speaker 12: Black and holl the favorite. Now where did the content
- 36:48Speaker 12: of future Superstars come from?
- 36:49Speaker 4: Nick?
- 36:50Speaker 2: And why Klondike Blond?
- 36:51Speaker 4: Why did why her?
- 36:51Speaker 2: Specifically?
- 36:52Speaker 9: I mean, if you go, she's to go.
- 36:55Speaker 21: She her vibe is punk rock rap like and if
- 36:57Speaker 21: you saw her episode that actually just aired, you know
- 37:00Speaker 21: this week is really these people have compelling stories. If
- 37:03Speaker 21: we remember what VH one was always about, was like
- 37:06Speaker 21: we saw the behind the music, and it was really
- 37:09Speaker 21: like telling the story sometimes you know it was a
- 37:12Speaker 21: retrospective story, but now it's like these are the origin stories.
- 37:15Speaker 5: So this is like before the music. This is in
- 37:18Speaker 5: her journey man.
- 37:19Speaker 21: I mean everything that she's gone through in life from
- 37:22Speaker 21: you know, there's a lot of tragedy, there's a lot
- 37:25Speaker 21: of things to wear. How her music helps with their
- 37:27Speaker 21: anxiety and to be able to kind of create your
- 37:30Speaker 21: own genre. We went on this tour and I just
- 37:33Speaker 21: wanted to highlight and tell the stories of these people
- 37:36Speaker 21: that are just more than.
- 37:37Speaker 9: Musicians because we didn't.
- 37:39Speaker 4: We don't have that no more.
- 37:40Speaker 21: We don't have other than platforms like y'all had. But
- 37:42Speaker 21: we came up with VH one behind the music, you know,
- 37:46Speaker 21: one oh six in partings. So I feel like we
- 37:48Speaker 21: can now still be those curators to help this next generation,
- 37:51Speaker 21: because I just got frustrated as somebody who has a
- 37:53Speaker 21: label and has artists, and like, yo, what happened to
- 37:55Speaker 21: that promo run? What happened to putting people on the road,
- 37:58Speaker 21: coming into radio stations playing the song, meeting pds and
- 38:01Speaker 21: shake your hands, kissing babies, all of that type of stuff,
- 38:03Speaker 21: And we did that. I started the tour with Live Nation,
- 38:07Speaker 21: and then I put the cameras on it, and you know,
- 38:09Speaker 21: now we got you know, a tour, a TV show.
- 38:11Speaker 5: They on the cover of Vibe magazine.
- 38:12Speaker 21: It's like so now it's like this is like that
- 38:15Speaker 21: that starter kit of like all right, the way double
- 38:18Speaker 21: XL has the Freshman cover, But now we got the
- 38:20Speaker 21: cover of the magazine, we got the tour, we got
- 38:22Speaker 21: the TV show. So if you see one of these acts,
- 38:24Speaker 21: they literally gonna become you know.
- 38:26Speaker 12: The next What you just said is why I feel
- 38:28Speaker 12: like it's hard to build superstars nowadays.
- 38:31Speaker 21: One you don't everything is so microwaveable, you know what
- 38:34Speaker 21: I mean. Everybody wanted, want it now, and then when
- 38:36Speaker 21: they don't want it no more, they on to the
- 38:37Speaker 21: next thing. But if you know someone's story, if you
- 38:39Speaker 21: know what she went through, if you know you know
- 38:41Speaker 21: her relationship, you know with her family and the things
- 38:45Speaker 21: that you know how close she is with you know,
- 38:47Speaker 21: her brother was one of her biggest fans and had
- 38:50Speaker 21: a tragic accident and now she's doing it for her brother.
- 38:53Speaker 21: If you know that the songs that you know Ray
- 38:55Speaker 21: she has all the tattoos is connected to growing up
- 38:57Speaker 21: in a trap house and mom and dad being teen agers.
- 39:00Speaker 21: Like when you know that about somebody, when you hear
- 39:02Speaker 21: their music, you're like, Okay, I'm connected now, And I
- 39:04Speaker 21: feel like this generation of kids they're figuring it out
- 39:08Speaker 21: through their phones and social media, but it's never amplified.
- 39:11Speaker 21: You never get to see it at a level where
- 39:14Speaker 21: you know, hopefully we're doing with super Future Superstar.
- 39:17Speaker 6: So like what you're being from Raley, North Carolina to South,
- 39:19Speaker 6: how did you get discovered? Because it seems like no
- 39:21Speaker 6: one really looks for us.
- 39:22Speaker 7: Down South exactly, especially in Carolina, right right. So the
- 39:26Speaker 7: thing is I did move to Cali when I was twelve.
- 39:28Speaker 6: Okay, so, but this was in the Bay Area.
- 39:31Speaker 20: Even in the Bay Area, I couldn't really like get
- 39:33Speaker 20: my name out there like I wanted to. So since
- 39:35Speaker 20: I turned eighteen, I moved to Atlanta because I knew,
- 39:37Speaker 20: like growing up, I knew that was a spot like
- 39:39Speaker 20: to be like to get discovered in to pop off
- 39:41Speaker 20: your career. So that's really how I got discovered in Atlanta.
- 39:44Speaker 2: What about the name Klondyke Blonde.
- 39:46Speaker 20: Honestly, it came out of my ass one day, really
- 39:57Speaker 20: whatever nowhere, Like I had just cut my hair and
- 40:00Speaker 20: bleashit blonde and I was about to upload my first song.
- 40:03Speaker 20: I'm looking in the mirror high as hell and I'm like,
- 40:05Speaker 20: I'm not feel to upload this song under my government name.
- 40:08Speaker 20: So I don't know, it just came to me. I
- 40:09Speaker 20: was like, Klondike Bland, this is it. So I really
- 40:11Speaker 20: I uploaded this song, I put the name is Klondike Blond,
- 40:14Speaker 20: and it's just fuck what.
- 40:16Speaker 11: I mean?
- 40:17Speaker 21: Well, honestly, it's you know, she's kind of truncating her
- 40:20Speaker 21: story a little bit, but she was on the grind
- 40:22Speaker 21: for a minute and actually had a song that went
- 40:24Speaker 21: super viral. A lot of people already her drip record
- 40:27Speaker 21: went crazy like twenty thirty million strin and I heard
- 40:30Speaker 21: like my kids were singing it off of TikTok and
- 40:33Speaker 21: I'm like one of them, annoying ass.
- 40:36Speaker 7: Like I'm back on my d Yeah.
- 40:38Speaker 12: I mean.
- 40:40Speaker 21: I didn't know about it, Like I seen my kids
- 40:42Speaker 21: singing it, like what is this damn song and the
- 40:44Speaker 21: like you got to make sure it's not something appropriate. Yeah,
- 40:47Speaker 21: And it's like, oh, this joint is crazy. And then
- 40:49Speaker 21: through our connection, you know, through Frisco Chuck in the
- 40:52Speaker 21: Bay and everything. She they who runs incredible music, was like, Yo,
- 40:56Speaker 21: this is this is that record? And then we met
- 40:59Speaker 21: her and knowing that she was already moving as I
- 41:02Speaker 21: was like, yo, this she's a superstar, Like when she
- 41:06Speaker 21: walked in the room, like that's a star right there.
- 41:08Speaker 21: And then from there I was putting together the future
- 41:10Speaker 21: Superstar tour and we're like, yo, we could probably make
- 41:13Speaker 21: this work. And you know me, I'm always thinking TV shows, movies,
- 41:16Speaker 21: products and all that, and she embodied everything that we
- 41:19Speaker 21: were trying to put together with that young energy fact
- 41:22Speaker 21: that she already had something that was popping and really
- 41:25Speaker 21: just wanted to cultivate, Like yo, when you see somebody.
- 41:27Speaker 21: I was like, all right, we're gonna tweak it like this.
- 41:29Speaker 21: We're gonna take all that viral sensation and put something on.
- 41:32Speaker 21: And I was like, Yo, she's a rock star. So
- 41:34Speaker 21: we've been going with this punk rock rap movement that
- 41:36Speaker 21: she created.
- 41:37Speaker 6: Do you feel like you had your I made it moment?
- 41:39Speaker 20: Yet I feel like I accomplished everything I said I
- 41:42Speaker 20: was gonna do as a kid. But being here and
- 41:44Speaker 20: seeing that like I accomplished those things, I still see
- 41:47Speaker 20: that I have way further to go.
- 41:48Speaker 7: So I don't think in my head that like I'm
- 41:50Speaker 7: where exactly where I need to be.
- 41:52Speaker 6: She's definitely gona write track, but I'm on the right.
- 41:53Speaker 7: Yeah, you definitely almost there.
- 41:55Speaker 2: Yeah, So we got more with Nick Cannon and Klondyke Blam.
- 41:58Speaker 2: When we come back, it's the Breakfast Come on, all right,
- 42:01Speaker 2: welcome back.
- 42:01Speaker 13: More than everybody, it's DJ env Charlamagne the guy we
- 42:05Speaker 13: are the Breakfast Club is still kicking it with Nick
- 42:06Speaker 13: Cannon and klondyke Blonde.
- 42:08Speaker 2: Now we taped this in in You yesterday, so Chris
- 42:10Speaker 2: Kayln was here Charlamagne. Why why did you just focus
- 42:13Speaker 2: on music though?
- 42:14Speaker 21: With future superstars, I think we're gonna I mean, that's
- 42:17Speaker 21: just the first show that I wrote out.
- 42:18Speaker 9: You will see a lot more stuff.
- 42:19Speaker 21: I mean, obviously in the space of you know, comedy
- 42:22Speaker 21: is where you know, we get off really well, and
- 42:24Speaker 21: you know, platforms like wild'n out has birthed so many stars,
- 42:27Speaker 21: So I don't I have that place where I can
- 42:30Speaker 21: implement social media stars and even comedians and actors because
- 42:34Speaker 21: wild'n out is going to continue to go and do
- 42:36Speaker 21: do what it needs to do.
- 42:37Speaker 5: So I feel like I have that lane.
- 42:38Speaker 21: And again, part of the music thing for me was
- 42:40Speaker 21: people didn't know that there's a lot of people like
- 42:42Speaker 21: Nick Cannon does music.
- 42:44Speaker 9: And then then so the fact that is like see
- 42:47Speaker 9: this mother, not even just the word music like before
- 42:51Speaker 9: I was rapper.
- 42:52Speaker 10: Right now, music.
- 42:55Speaker 9: This music is something every project, all of my successful projects,
- 43:01Speaker 9: Charlotte Mane have music in them.
- 43:02Speaker 2: And I'm a musical gospel song with Kim Burrell.
- 43:06Speaker 9: With Kim Ky, I was lying.
- 43:12Speaker 2: I just was like, you know what, I'm not gonna
- 43:14Speaker 2: do them like that.
- 43:14Speaker 9: And I'm not even talking about I'm.
- 43:19Speaker 21: So like mass singer America's got talent absolutely all music
- 43:25Speaker 21: based stuff, wild'n out every like, and I say this
- 43:28Speaker 21: all the time.
- 43:28Speaker 9: I make all the music on wild'ing Out.
- 43:30Speaker 21: But it's just like people just they see the aspect
- 43:33Speaker 21: of like drum line, like everything, like everything that I
- 43:36Speaker 21: do has a musical vibration to it.
- 43:39Speaker 9: It's just that, you know, for whatever reason, because like this,
- 43:42Speaker 9: the narrative is that I haven't been successful.
- 43:45Speaker 2: Nothing to do with me.
- 43:47Speaker 9: You're the corporate you. I only say rap. I don't
- 43:51Speaker 9: feel just that music.
- 43:53Speaker 21: You see how the comedian I take the rap the
- 43:56Speaker 21: clip back like, but now it's like now now I'm
- 44:00Speaker 21: not successful in music like people do those things though,
- 44:04Speaker 21: But that's why that's the whole purpose.
- 44:05Speaker 9: Of Future Superstar and itself.
- 44:06Speaker 21: Like we joking, we're friends and shit like that, but
- 44:08Speaker 21: it really is educating people to the space of like, Yo,
- 44:11Speaker 21: I've been a music executive for over twenty years, but.
- 44:13Speaker 2: Do you think you overworking? We know you had health
- 44:16Speaker 2: issues before, yeah, but you it don't seem like you
- 44:19Speaker 2: slow down. It seemed like that made you work harder.
- 44:21Speaker 5: Like gave me more.
- 44:22Speaker 21: I mean the clocks start ticking faster, like it gave
- 44:24Speaker 21: me like yo, I really had to get serious in
- 44:27Speaker 21: that sense of like yo, all right, let's it's bandwidth
- 44:29Speaker 21: more than anything.
- 44:30Speaker 5: It's like, all right, I got a lot to do.
- 44:32Speaker 5: You know, God ain't done with me.
- 44:33Speaker 21: He's he's blessed me with the opportunity to have gone
- 44:36Speaker 21: through some real and now it's like all right, now,
- 44:38Speaker 21: let's get your health together. Let's lock in and really
- 44:40Speaker 21: focus and make the most of your time. So every
- 44:42Speaker 21: day that I wake up healthy, it don't hurt. It's
- 44:44Speaker 21: like I got to get to it. Like that's the
- 44:45Speaker 21: blessing in itself. So do you really think like the
- 44:48Speaker 21: hell yeah, especially like during that time it got dark,
- 44:51Speaker 21: like during like you know, twenty twelve to even like
- 44:54Speaker 21: twenty sixteen, cause I didn't know and I couldn't get
- 44:56Speaker 21: this right. So every time I got one thing rightly,
- 45:00Speaker 21: I get a blood clot here, a pulmonary embolism.
- 45:03Speaker 9: I couldn't like my lungs.
- 45:04Speaker 21: Like, So once I got to this space of like
- 45:07Speaker 21: all right, I figured out, you know, how to stay
- 45:10Speaker 21: healthy and how to stay alive, then it's like that's
- 45:12Speaker 21: the constant reminder of like you gotta do something with this.
- 45:15Speaker 5: You got to turn your pain into purpose and and
- 45:17Speaker 5: for me that became.
- 45:20Speaker 21: Helping others, like and you know, you go through this
- 45:23Speaker 21: this spiritual transition of like, all the things that feed
- 45:27Speaker 21: me are probably not the best for me. But when
- 45:29Speaker 21: I'm feeding others, that's when I feel the healthiest. That's
- 45:33Speaker 21: when I feel the drive to do so. Now I
- 45:37Speaker 21: live in that space, I'm like, all right, what can
- 45:39Speaker 21: I do to make the world a better place? What
- 45:41Speaker 21: can I do to lend a hand to the next artist?
- 45:44Speaker 21: And you know that's you know, that's that's that healthy
- 45:47Speaker 21: journey for me to where it gives me that drive
- 45:50Speaker 21: because I don't feel like I'm busy. I don't feel
- 45:52Speaker 21: like I'm doing too much. I feel like, yo, this
- 45:54Speaker 21: is this is my calling. This is where I'm supposed
- 45:57Speaker 21: to go with it. So, you know, hopefully, however, anymore
- 46:00Speaker 21: years I got left, was.
- 46:01Speaker 2: That the reason you started having so many kids?
- 46:04Speaker 9: People say that I don't know, like I if I,
- 46:06Speaker 9: if I took the spiritual you might.
- 46:08Speaker 2: Have said it in an interviewer joked around, Yeah, but.
- 46:13Speaker 21: If I'm being serious, it wasn't like I set out
- 46:16Speaker 21: to do it. It probably got to that space of
- 46:18Speaker 21: like I value being a father, I value life. So
- 46:21Speaker 21: I was I was never against the concept. And if
- 46:24Speaker 21: we want to have deeper conversations about you know, like
- 46:27Speaker 21: what I talk about in therapy and even as as men,
- 46:30Speaker 21: it's like there are those times and we've been you know,
- 46:34Speaker 21: I call it access to access. I have the ability
- 46:38Speaker 21: to do my thing and bro and and a lot
- 46:43Speaker 21: of others. Probably I could I could have stopped, you know,
- 46:47Speaker 21: and and or even not had the children. But I
- 46:51Speaker 21: was welcoming the idea of it and was never against it.
- 46:54Speaker 21: People say, or people's opinions about me is none of
- 46:56Speaker 21: my business. And and if anything, I take that that
- 47:00Speaker 21: low frequency energy and shifted to where it's like all
- 47:02Speaker 21: I keep talking because I'm doing the work.
- 47:05Speaker 4: How you how are you women? In Christmas?
- 47:08Speaker 12: It is it low frequency energy? If people say, Nick,
- 47:11Speaker 12: why don't you wear conn?
- 47:14Speaker 9: Who told you?
- 47:16Speaker 5: I don't wear condom?
- 47:20Speaker 9: You need the sue you use, the kind of you
- 47:22Speaker 9: need your suit?
- 47:23Speaker 2: How do you do it Christmas?
- 47:25Speaker 21: I mean I joked, I say all I'm saying Nick
- 47:27Speaker 21: and everything, But it's really structured in a way to
- 47:30Speaker 21: where those I kind of take that week and turn
- 47:33Speaker 21: it into Christmas week, you know, And and there is
- 47:37Speaker 21: because I'm traveling and flying like I'm trying to be
- 47:39Speaker 21: every everybody.
- 47:40Speaker 5: And even Thanksgiving was the same way.
- 47:41Speaker 21: I was in five six different Thanksgivings at the time
- 47:44Speaker 21: because it's not it's my mom's house, because my grandmother says.
- 47:47Speaker 4: Nobody said twenty minutes, thirty minutes.
- 47:49Speaker 21: I mean dinner, y'all play spas I'm out to the
- 47:54Speaker 21: next time do you eat?
- 47:57Speaker 9: I mean, I'm telling everybody. You know, everybody cook different.
- 48:00Speaker 9: So the last time you got my white baby mom,
- 48:04Speaker 9: I'm not really eating pumpkin pies.
- 48:13Speaker 5: One of your baby mom's breech.
- 48:14Speaker 12: She said, how you juggle your twelve kids for the
- 48:17Speaker 12: holidays is your problem, and.
- 48:19Speaker 9: I don't see it as a problem. I think she
- 48:20Speaker 9: was saying, like that's it is, but it's I don't.
- 48:22Speaker 5: Involve her, like sheel like a baby Mom's gotta make
- 48:25Speaker 5: it easy for you too, right, they.
- 48:26Speaker 21: Do, and that's what I, like, I said, I give
- 48:28Speaker 21: them credit to where like even in the process of
- 48:31Speaker 21: like they say, this is what we want, and it's
- 48:33Speaker 21: everything from Christmas pictures, the slid riding the pictures with
- 48:37Speaker 21: saying that our experiences, like I make sure that every
- 48:40Speaker 21: kid who wants to do something or we have certain
- 48:42Speaker 21: things set up, we make time to go do it.
- 48:44Speaker 9: So I'm all over the damn place. But it's fun.
- 48:47Speaker 21: I mean, y'all see my ig, You see me, like
- 48:49Speaker 21: we're having a ball. Like you know how much money
- 48:51Speaker 21: I spend at Disneyland a year.
- 48:53Speaker 5: We can imagine a lot. I got six.
- 48:59Speaker 21: Crazy thing is because I used to host Christmas Morning
- 49:01Speaker 21: at Disneyland, right, and so I used to get that
- 49:03Speaker 21: Disney bag like it was like and it was there
- 49:06Speaker 21: were perks, so all of that stuff was free.
- 49:09Speaker 9: No longer for you, it's no longer free. And how
- 49:11Speaker 9: we had two kids then.
- 49:13Speaker 21: So like to be twelve and every birthday christ like
- 49:15Speaker 21: I'm literally at Disneyland at least once a month, and
- 49:18Speaker 21: to move around Disney like I probably I'm probably spending
- 49:23Speaker 21: two hundred thousand dollars a year.
- 49:27Speaker 2: Cause you got pay for the chaperone you got.
- 49:29Speaker 21: Didneyland is expensive a top, like if you're trying to
- 49:32Speaker 21: stay in the hotel, and now it's it's not how
- 49:35Speaker 21: it used to be, like you gotta make reservations and stuff.
- 49:37Speaker 21: But so I spending two hundred thousand dollars a year
- 49:41Speaker 21: at Disneyland.
- 49:42Speaker 6: You need to give you, like a membership or something.
- 49:44Speaker 9: I used to be an employeed. Like I I'm like, Mickey,
- 49:49Speaker 9: can you can I get back in my job? That's
- 49:53Speaker 9: what job?
- 49:53Speaker 15: I need back.
- 49:54Speaker 13: But there's any woman that you had a child with,
- 49:56Speaker 13: did they feel like they were gonna stop you from
- 49:58Speaker 13: doing it and you were gonna be the one?
- 50:00Speaker 4: Did y'all ever have that.
- 50:00Speaker 9: Conversation to them?
- 50:02Speaker 21: I mean, the women in my life are so amazing
- 50:04Speaker 21: that they are elevated in the sense that they never
- 50:07Speaker 21: tried to change them. They knew what it was and
- 50:09Speaker 21: it wasn't like it was just a process because all
- 50:12Speaker 21: of them started off as true companions. And I look
- 50:15Speaker 21: at them now, like those are the people I talked to,
- 50:17Speaker 21: like that's my circle, That's who I That's who I
- 50:19Speaker 21: go to when I'm having issues because the world a
- 50:22Speaker 21: lot of times is against us. So like we gotta
- 50:24Speaker 21: stick together in the sense of like I gotta protect
- 50:27Speaker 21: them and they gotta protect me. Even not to generalize
- 50:29Speaker 21: them as a group, but just individually, those are the
- 50:32Speaker 21: people that I go to when I'm depressed, when I'm
- 50:34Speaker 21: the relationship or not.
- 50:35Speaker 2: All right, we got more with Nick Cannon, the Klondyke Blonde.
- 50:37Speaker 13: When we come back, it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning,
- 50:39Speaker 13: all right, welcome back. More than everybody. It's dej nv
- 50:42Speaker 13: Charlamagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. It's still
- 50:45Speaker 13: kicking it with Nick Cannon and Klondyke Blonde. Now we
- 50:48Speaker 13: take the cit of you.
- 50:48Speaker 2: Yesterday, so Chris Kaitlin was his and I got a question, Nick,
- 50:52Speaker 2: want to get married? Do you look at you see that?
- 50:55Speaker 4: Never again?
- 50:55Speaker 9: Absolutely no. I mean because last time I got I
- 50:59Speaker 9: used my words in correctly.
- 51:00Speaker 21: Last time we was having conversation, i'd be forgetting the
- 51:02Speaker 21: mixes on it, and I said it was a eurocentric concept.
- 51:07Speaker 21: What I really meant is the colonial aspect of marriage.
- 51:11Speaker 21: It's a business, and I've been in that business before.
- 51:16Speaker 21: I don't want to be in that business no more.
- 51:17Speaker 21: It's so much paperwork. I don't want the government to
- 51:19Speaker 21: be involved with my love life. I shouldn't have to
- 51:23Speaker 21: have a legal document or a contract to let someone
- 51:26Speaker 21: know how much I care for them. Now I want
- 51:28Speaker 21: to be their protector and that provider. It's kind of
- 51:30Speaker 21: like the child support system. If you take care of
- 51:33Speaker 21: your children, there's no need for paperwork. Because I want
- 51:38Speaker 21: I want my kids to have everything that I own
- 51:41Speaker 21: I want. I don't want them to go without at all.
- 51:43Speaker 21: I want them to live an abundant life. So I
- 51:46Speaker 21: don't need the government to tell me the minimum that
- 51:48Speaker 21: I need to pay, because I'm gonna give them the maximum.
- 51:50Speaker 9: So same thing with love and marriage.
- 51:53Speaker 21: If I put you for life, I don't need to
- 51:55Speaker 21: be binded by a contract or a ring. And therefore
- 51:59Speaker 21: that's in the way those contracts are designed.
- 52:02Speaker 9: That's from a Roman Catholicism approach of how we do it.
- 52:07Speaker 21: There's ways to have unions and covenants and marriages through
- 52:10Speaker 21: so many other philosophies and life specifically. You know in
- 52:13Speaker 21: our African community from the diaspora, they do it differently,
- 52:18Speaker 21: and you know, I'm learning and understanding those processes, but
- 52:21Speaker 21: I know you go over to the continent, it ain't
- 52:25Speaker 21: about contracts, it ain't about paperwork and rings. It's like, nah,
- 52:29Speaker 21: this is my wife, this is my wife, and however
- 52:31Speaker 21: that moves around. So the concept of the American society marriage,
- 52:36Speaker 21: I'll never do that again. But who's to say I
- 52:38Speaker 21: can't find a life partner that I'm a rock with.
- 52:42Speaker 21: I'm wen't know, Like were in that state where It's like,
- 52:45Speaker 21: by the time I'm in my sixties, I want to
- 52:47Speaker 21: be on an island or the top of a mountain
- 52:49Speaker 21: in Tibet somewhere with somebody I.
- 52:50Speaker 9: Could rock with forever.
- 52:52Speaker 2: So I'm living like cam A Lliles actually told me
- 52:55Speaker 2: a long time ago.
- 52:55Speaker 12: He said, I can't tell you to get married, but
- 52:57Speaker 12: I can tell you you should always have somebody to
- 52:59Speaker 12: share you experien.
- 53:01Speaker 8: That.
- 53:02Speaker 21: He you like that, I can see myself doing that.
- 53:04Speaker 21: And then the fact that people like, aren't you worried
- 53:06Speaker 21: about getting lonely, Like I got twelve kids, they never
- 53:09Speaker 21: gonna be homeing somebody coming over, like.
- 53:11Speaker 12: But even with that, that's scary too though, right because
- 53:13Speaker 12: I read something where it said you spend seventy percent
- 53:17Speaker 12: of all the time you're ever gonna spend with your
- 53:19Speaker 12: kids between one and eighteen.
- 53:21Speaker 2: That's when you.
- 53:22Speaker 12: Think about it, that's probably true. Many times. You've probably
- 53:25Speaker 12: seen your parents as you get it an become an
- 53:27Speaker 12: adult and you're out in the world trying to pick
- 53:29Speaker 12: things out.
- 53:30Speaker 21: And then even when you think about like the time
- 53:31Speaker 21: that they spend at school and sports and stuff like that,
- 53:33Speaker 21: there's other people with your children throughout the day more
- 53:36Speaker 21: than you are, and I'm learning that too, because I'm
- 53:38Speaker 21: trying to be present at all of these games, and
- 53:40Speaker 21: you know, I'm picking them up from school and knowing
- 53:43Speaker 21: the teachers and spending time at the recitals, and it's like,
- 53:46Speaker 21: I want them to at least see my presence there
- 53:48Speaker 21: because I know there's gonna be a time where I'm
- 53:50Speaker 21: on a film set for two months. There's gonna be
- 53:52Speaker 21: time where I'm on tour over here. So I want
- 53:54Speaker 21: them to see me every free time that I can.
- 53:57Speaker 21: Because when you think about the person with the average person,
- 54:00Speaker 21: one are nine to five from eight am to three
- 54:04Speaker 21: of them, they are under the supervision of a completely
- 54:07Speaker 21: different adult.
- 54:08Speaker 9: And then even by the time you get get to
- 54:09Speaker 9: where you tired, they tired.
- 54:11Speaker 21: You might get to see your kids what from six
- 54:14Speaker 21: to eight and then y'all sleep and then again like
- 54:18Speaker 21: so like the average because with my with my therapist,
- 54:22Speaker 21: we've done the the math on it. The average time
- 54:26Speaker 21: that a parent spends with their kids a day is
- 54:28Speaker 21: less than three hours. And then when you think about
- 54:31Speaker 21: like that's why weekends are so important, that's why vacations
- 54:33Speaker 21: are so important, because that's when they really get to
- 54:36Speaker 21: know you, and that's when you really get to it's all.
- 54:38Speaker 21: It's about the qualitative approach, and it's really about creating
- 54:41Speaker 21: as many core memories in that amount of time that
- 54:43Speaker 21: you possibly.
- 54:44Speaker 12: Your therapist talks about average parent, you ain't talking about you, right, no, because.
- 54:47Speaker 2: Clearly, but that's what to me.
- 54:50Speaker 9: I'm trying to go above and beyond.
- 54:51Speaker 21: When it comes to that that parenting aspect, because I'm
- 54:53Speaker 21: trying to create the best core memories as possible. Because
- 54:56Speaker 21: core memories can be in a positive light or in
- 54:57Speaker 21: a negative light. So you know, I don't ever and
- 55:00Speaker 21: that that's all about keeping your word. That's all about
- 55:03Speaker 21: managing expectations, because if I tell my kids something, I'm
- 55:06Speaker 21: gonna make sure I do it. And and you know,
- 55:08Speaker 21: obviously I have a strong support team that helped me
- 55:11Speaker 21: accomplish a lot of that. But again, you know, is
- 55:15Speaker 21: as important as it is to sit back and analyze
- 55:17Speaker 21: these things through therapy.
- 55:19Speaker 9: Uh And I mean you know this very well.
- 55:21Speaker 2: It's like you're.
- 55:21Speaker 21: Constantly trying to grow. You're constantly trying to figure out
- 55:24Speaker 21: how can I be a better dad? And considering the circumstance, I.
- 55:27Speaker 2: Saw the mask Guttie Murphy too. To give you some advice.
- 55:29Speaker 5: Did you see that?
- 55:30Speaker 4: I love it.
- 55:32Speaker 9: I was waiting for the advice.
- 55:34Speaker 6: Absolutely, not.
- 55:41Speaker 9: Eddie quick too, because he was.
- 55:43Speaker 21: I look up to the Eddie Murphy's, to the Bob Marley's,
- 55:45Speaker 21: to the Muhammad al Lei's, to all to the Doctor Saves,
- 55:48Speaker 21: to all these people who have giant families and providing
- 55:51Speaker 21: for them all in all of their When you talk
- 55:54Speaker 21: to anybody in Muhammad Ali's, can anybody in the Marley family?
- 55:57Speaker 10: Anybody?
- 55:58Speaker 5: They love their father so much and they like, man,
- 56:01Speaker 5: my father was amazing.
- 56:02Speaker 8: Like that.
- 56:03Speaker 21: I hope and pray people look at me the way
- 56:07Speaker 21: my children look at me, the way that Eddie's children
- 56:10Speaker 21: look at him.
- 56:11Speaker 9: I hope and pray that.
- 56:12Speaker 21: You know the way that people admire Muhammad Ali is
- 56:15Speaker 21: the father that he was. Like that's hopefully, you know,
- 56:18Speaker 21: ten fifteen years from now, my children are saying those
- 56:20Speaker 21: type of things about me.
- 56:22Speaker 2: Well, we appreciate you for joining us. Nick Cannon and

- 58:53Speaker 12: Bronx and all of Florida, and today's donkey of today
- 58:55Speaker 12: is no different. Now, I don't know if this man's
- 58:58Speaker 12: name is actually Kevin, but that's what he said his
- 59:00Speaker 12: name was, and I don't know if that's really his name,
- 59:02Speaker 12: because this man made some other claims that make me.
- 59:06Speaker 2: Feel like I don't know if we could believe anything
- 59:07Speaker 2: that comes out of his mouth.
- 59:08Speaker 12: And because this man is just running around saying things
- 59:10Speaker 12: that we don't know if we can believe, we the
- 59:12Speaker 12: people need to get this man off the street and
- 59:15Speaker 12: get him some help. And now I know it's just
- 59:16Speaker 12: saying I know, it's just saying, Charlamagne. Since when do
- 59:19Speaker 12: you want to get people from Florida some help? Well,
- 59:21Speaker 12: that should let you know the severity of the level
- 59:24Speaker 12: of donkey we are dealing with. Would you like to
- 59:27Speaker 12: know what Kevin's claims were let's go to NBC two
- 59:30Speaker 12: for the report.
- 59:30Speaker 16: Please here at the McCastle in household on Shadowy Road,
- 59:33Speaker 16: it was all but a typical Thursday evening.
- 59:35Speaker 22: We were eating dinner with myself and my two daughters,
- 59:39Speaker 22: and we heard.
- 59:40Speaker 15: A noise at the door.
- 59:41Speaker 16: Oh but nobody was knocking. Instead, this random man was
- 59:44Speaker 16: inviting himself in for a bite to eat. Brian got
- 59:47Speaker 16: up from the table and found this guy standing right
- 59:50Speaker 16: in his living room.
- 59:51Speaker 5: It was in he was in the house.
- 59:52Speaker 22: He started telling me that he was a ghost and
- 59:54Speaker 22: that I shouldn't be able to see him.
- 59:56Speaker 9: That's right, this guy thought he was a ghost.
- 59:58Speaker 22: He was shocked that I could seem him, thought he
- 1:00:00Speaker 22: was walking around and that nobody could see.
- 1:00:04Speaker 16: Brian is barely able to believe what he's seeing.
- 1:00:07Speaker 22: I could tell his behavior was not normal. Who knows
- 1:00:10Speaker 22: what this person might do, you know, if they had
- 1:00:12Speaker 22: a chance to think.
- 1:00:13Speaker 16: After causing this scene inside, this guy who claims his
- 1:00:16Speaker 16: name is Kevin, came running outside to where a crew
- 1:00:19Speaker 16: was cutting down a tree. He hopped up in one
- 1:00:21Speaker 16: of their trucks and locked himself inside. So at this point,
- 1:00:24Speaker 16: this man barged into Brian's home. He thinks he's a ghost,
- 1:00:27Speaker 16: and now he's locked inside a tree cruise truck.
- 1:00:30Speaker 5: I think it's all wild.
- 1:00:31Speaker 16: After coaxing the man for a while, the tree trimmers
- 1:00:33Speaker 16: were finally able to get him out, where he then
- 1:00:35Speaker 16: took off wearing nothing but his bathing suit.
- 1:00:38Speaker 12: Let me tell you something, man, If you come to
- 1:00:40Speaker 12: my house with a bathing suit, no shoes or anything
- 1:00:43Speaker 12: else on, and I'm in there eating with my daughters
- 1:00:45Speaker 12: and you are advancing into my house, you get into
- 1:00:47Speaker 12: my house and you claim to be a ghost, I
- 1:00:49Speaker 12: promise I'm gonna make your claim come true.
- 1:00:55Speaker 4: That's right.
- 1:00:56Speaker 12: You may not have been a ghost when you entered,
- 1:00:57Speaker 12: but you shall be a ghost when you leave. Okay,
- 1:01:00Speaker 12: if you die, slow my full fourth, make sure all
- 1:01:02Speaker 12: your kids don't grow. Look, man, here's the thing I know.
- 1:01:04Speaker 12: This man is probably dealing with some form of mental illness.
- 1:01:07Speaker 12: Within that moment when someone invades the peace that is
- 1:01:09Speaker 12: your house, you in there with your kid is the
- 1:01:11Speaker 12: first law of nature is self preservation.
- 1:01:13Speaker 2: I gotta protect me in mind.
- 1:01:15Speaker 12: And at this point I don't know what your angle is,
- 1:01:17Speaker 12: but if you're coming in talking about you a ghost,
- 1:01:19Speaker 12: I don't have no choice but to defend myself because
- 1:01:21Speaker 12: you might be trying to make me one.
- 1:01:23Speaker 2: Okay, I don't know if you're a friendly ghost or
- 1:01:25Speaker 2: a demon. We don't know.
- 1:01:26Speaker 12: If you cast for a Freddy Krueger slim Off and
- 1:01:29Speaker 12: Marion Morgan from The Ring. You're breaking somebody's house talking
- 1:01:31Speaker 12: about you a ghost, then you deserve to get sent
- 1:01:33Speaker 12: to your makeup and becoming the ghost of Christmas past.
- 1:01:36Speaker 12: They said he was wearing nothing but a bathing suit,
- 1:01:39Speaker 12: no shoes or anything else. You know, another way to
- 1:01:41Speaker 12: look at it. That's not a ghost, that's a crackhead. Okay,
- 1:01:45Speaker 12: maybe Matho all right, maybe bath salts, maybe finty beauty
- 1:01:48Speaker 12: by fifty I mean fentonyl All I'm saying is I
- 1:01:51Speaker 12: know drug head behavior when I hear it. This man
- 1:01:53Speaker 12: was feeling for a hit, so he was doing what
- 1:01:55Speaker 12: drugheads do, breaking and entering and stealing stuff looking to
- 1:01:59Speaker 12: make money to get it next hit. See what happened
- 1:02:01Speaker 12: is he didn't expect for these people to be home.
- 1:02:03Speaker 12: And I have to commend the father here because he
- 1:02:06Speaker 12: knows rule number one when dealing with a full blown crackhead.
- 1:02:09Speaker 2: Okay, you must remain.
- 1:02:10Speaker 10: Calm, all right.
- 1:02:11Speaker 12: It's like if you saw a bear or ladies, when
- 1:02:14Speaker 12: you see that guy you left on read Claudia, you
- 1:02:16Speaker 12: can you understand that, right, you just just remain calm.
- 1:02:20Speaker 12: But the moment Kevin realized he wasn't invisible and could
- 1:02:24Speaker 12: be seen, that's when he knew maybe, just maybe, he
- 1:02:28Speaker 12: probably was still high.
- 1:02:29Speaker 2: Okay, yes, this man was.
- 1:02:30Speaker 12: Clearly still under the influence, because whenever I'm high, you
- 1:02:33Speaker 12: can't tell me I don't have superpowers like invisibility or
- 1:02:36Speaker 12: mind reading.
- 1:02:36Speaker 2: But that's a whole other topic.
- 1:02:38Speaker 11: Now.
- 1:02:38Speaker 2: I agree that we need to find this man some help, right,
- 1:02:41Speaker 2: but first we have to find him.
- 1:02:42Speaker 12: So they are asking if you have any information that
- 1:02:44Speaker 12: might help investigate us, you can submit an anonymous tip
- 1:02:47Speaker 12: that SWFL crime stoppers are call one eight hundred seven
- 1:02:51Speaker 12: eight old tips. But I am a person who loves
- 1:02:54Speaker 12: to see things from both sides, and I've lived long
- 1:02:57Speaker 12: enough to know to always be skeptical. But listen, so
- 1:03:00Speaker 12: Kevin says he's a ghost, I take a step back.
- 1:03:03Speaker 12: I think to myself, what if we are the ones trip?
- 1:03:06Speaker 12: What if he's not a crackhead and he is indeed
- 1:03:08Speaker 12: a ghost?
- 1:03:10Speaker 2: Who you gonna call.
- 1:03:13Speaker 9: Something strange.
- 1:03:16Speaker 2: That's all I'm saying. Who you gonna call?
- 1:03:19Speaker 10: That's right?
- 1:03:20Speaker 7: Maybe he identifies as a ghost.
- 1:03:22Speaker 2: Maybe he identifies as a ghost. Right, that's right?
- 1:03:26Speaker 12: Or what you're absolutely right? Please give this man who
- 1:03:29Speaker 12: identifies as a ghost, Kevin the big as he Hull
- 1:03:35Speaker 12: all right, and we can't deny him if he wants
- 1:03:38Speaker 12: to identify as a ghost. Who are we to say
- 1:03:40Speaker 12: he can't be a ghost?
- 1:03:44Speaker 2: I don't know. That's a good question. Crazy, that's a
- 1:03:47Speaker 2: good question. Well, thank you for that. Donkey of the day.

- 1:07:45Speaker 3: the all the meals and stuff like that. And then
- 1:07:47Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying, me and be Legit got

- 1:09:44Speaker 3: a lot of people like say like say, for instance,
- 1:09:46Speaker 3: we got when we got McCaffrey on our team of
- 1:09:50Speaker 3: the forty nine ers, my cousin had Dallas cowboy boy fans.
- 1:09:54Speaker 3: Yeah he was for real, you think so? And he
- 1:09:57Speaker 3: was like, you know, we talked big Bronco to each other,
- 1:09:59Speaker 3: and I ain't talking about Denver Broncles.
- 1:10:00Speaker 4: That's just a phrase I said.
- 1:10:01Speaker 3: And he was like, I ain't gonna lie care for
- 1:10:04Speaker 3: your dog, right so that the dog is not a
- 1:10:07Speaker 3: dog in a bad way. It's like you know what
- 1:10:09Speaker 3: I'm saying, Like that's just like being a beast. So

- 1:10:15Speaker 4: Spoon cut tract.
- 1:10:16Speaker 13: Yeah that's right now that you did mention basketball, can
- 1:10:19Speaker 13: we tell Warriors a little bit? You Warriors, Draymond Green,
- 1:10:23Speaker 13: just just you know, grab the poor light skinned brother,
- 1:10:26Speaker 13: out his damnit, out his shoes.
- 1:10:27Speaker 4: Man, what you want me to say? What you want?
- 1:10:29Speaker 10: You're talking to me?
- 1:10:31Speaker 4: You know, I'm not feeling to go against Draymond.
- 1:10:33Speaker 3: First and foremost, he's shopping in a porcupine spine and
- 1:10:36Speaker 3: he observes everything. And most of the time when he
- 1:10:39Speaker 3: said we run rewind the tape, yes, when they called
- 1:10:42Speaker 3: some bad stuff.
- 1:10:42Speaker 4: On him, he right most of the time.
- 1:10:45Speaker 3: So I'm just rocking with Draymond because when he when
- 1:10:47Speaker 3: he reacts on something, I take his opinion.
- 1:10:50Speaker 4: I know I'm rocking with Raymond.
- 1:10:52Speaker 2: He's realm and he should. That was my favorite NBA.
- 1:10:56Speaker 4: Player And nobody do nothing to none of his team
- 1:10:59Speaker 4: especially and stuff.
- 1:11:00Speaker 12: Absolutely, and you don't win championships without a Dramonday protective
- 1:11:06Speaker 12: because because it was Roman Rodman was a fool with it.

- 1:11:26Speaker 3: Man, I just was just being me, Man, I was

- 1:12:51Speaker 3: in eight, nineteen eighty nine.
- 1:12:53Speaker 5: Do you count the compilations too, Like, no, no compilation.
- 1:12:56Speaker 3: I ain't even count the compilations or the albums with
- 1:12:58Speaker 3: the click. Yeah, I've been doing this since uh Comra
- 1:13:02Speaker 3: Defraud was a probably.
- 1:13:06Speaker 12: But you know, a couple of weeks ago November November ninth,
- 1:13:09Speaker 12: nineteen ninety three, Federal album Drop.
- 1:13:12Speaker 3: It really was nineteen ninety two. We used to play
- 1:13:14Speaker 3: it up a year because we was in the we.
- 1:13:16Speaker 3: When you say when we, when you talk about independent,
- 1:13:18Speaker 3: we was the real independent. Like yeah, Stanley, I'm talking
- 1:13:21Speaker 3: about using City Hall Records as our main hub, and
- 1:13:24Speaker 3: UH music people, we didn't have a big distribution deal,
- 1:13:28Speaker 3: you know, until like ninety four when Jive Records and
- 1:13:31Speaker 3: every label that that did rap music, they had a
- 1:13:36Speaker 3: big bid and wore on me, and uh they wanted
- 1:13:39Speaker 3: you know, they wanted me stick with It Records, they
- 1:13:41Speaker 3: wanted us, you know, and Uh, I went ahead and
- 1:13:44Speaker 3: went with job. But now they put the We used
- 1:13:47Speaker 3: to always put it up a year because it would
- 1:13:49Speaker 3: take some time to get to other states. And when
- 1:13:53Speaker 3: it did get to other states, we wanted to soak in.
- 1:13:56Speaker 3: We didn't want them to think the album, the album
- 1:13:58Speaker 3: or the EP is old.
- 1:14:00Speaker 4: It's just our method.
- 1:14:00Speaker 3: My uncle Saint Charles, I'm sure y'all heard me speak
- 1:14:03Speaker 3: of Uncle Saint Charles. That's my mother's brother blood so
- 1:14:06Speaker 3: you know, everybody say uncle, this uncle, that's my that's
- 1:14:08Speaker 3: my bloodline. And he, you know, helped you know what
- 1:14:12Speaker 3: I'm saying, Uh, the Boy and Master P and many
- 1:14:14Speaker 3: of us. You know what I mean from the beginning,
- 1:14:16Speaker 3: because Master P used to be out there with us
- 1:14:17Speaker 3: in the Bay Area in Richmond, California. So PC and
- 1:14:20Speaker 3: how I was doing it, he was doing his thing too,
- 1:14:23Speaker 3: but he wasn't doing it on the level that he
- 1:14:25Speaker 3: was doing it when he once he got to with
- 1:14:26Speaker 3: Saint Charles and then he just took it to big heights.
- 1:14:28Speaker 3: So it's been and that's my brother right now to
- 1:14:30Speaker 3: this day.
- 1:14:31Speaker 2: So it's been thirty one years since Federal.
- 1:14:32Speaker 4: Then not that.
- 1:14:33Speaker 2: In nineteen ninety two, Dang came in And what does
- 1:14:37Speaker 2: your mind go when you think about that?
- 1:14:39Speaker 3: It was gonna start off as an EP because that's
- 1:14:40Speaker 3: what we was doing when you do solo stuff back then.
- 1:14:42Speaker 3: It was and I just have too much gas, and uh,
- 1:14:46Speaker 3: I was like, man, let me, you know what I'm saying.
- 1:14:47Speaker 3: Let me just go in and ask the more songs
- 1:14:49Speaker 3: to to make it an album. And that's the mind
- 1:14:51Speaker 3: frame I had a lot to stay, being fresh from
- 1:14:54Speaker 3: the soil and way ahead of my time.
- 1:14:57Speaker 2: Do you remember the impact it had?
- 1:14:59Speaker 4: Yeah, walked again. I'm the dopest bro. Only only suckers
- 1:15:04Speaker 4: and clowns can't see it. You know what I'm saying.
- 1:15:06Speaker 3: I'm I'm above, I'm beyond what they think. You know,
- 1:15:09Speaker 3: you go back and listen to all my old stuff,
- 1:15:11Speaker 3: you listen to my new.
- 1:15:12Speaker 4: Slaps right now. Rule of thumb. You understand. I'm the
- 1:15:15Speaker 4: epitome of mob music.
- 1:15:18Speaker 3: I've been in every era from the you understand me,
- 1:15:21Speaker 3: the black Fists in the air with the you know,
- 1:15:23Speaker 3: with the with the African medallion in the late eighties
- 1:15:26Speaker 3: to you understand, to the mob music area to the
- 1:15:29Speaker 3: G funk to the South music with cash Money and
- 1:15:32Speaker 3: and and a Bar and MJG and all all these casts.
- 1:15:36Speaker 3: You understand me, master P. I'm the Hyphee movement. I'm
- 1:15:41Speaker 3: just everything all in one.
- 1:15:43Speaker 2: You think that with them celebrating fifty years of hip hop,
- 1:15:45Speaker 2: they celebrated you the right way.
- 1:15:48Speaker 4: Yeah, I was. I was part of a lot of it.
- 1:15:49Speaker 4: I was part of all dead.
- 1:15:50Speaker 3: They invited me to pretty much everything everything. You think
- 1:15:54Speaker 3: they celebrated the beta right way. I think they reached out,
- 1:15:57Speaker 3: took me and Short was there, and they reached out
- 1:16:00Speaker 3: to you know, Hammer, Hammer already said he you know
- 1:16:03Speaker 3: a lot of them reached out to him. People didn't
- 1:16:06Speaker 3: know that, but you know, Hammer chose to do what
- 1:16:08Speaker 3: Hammer do.
- 1:16:09Speaker 4: He he'd o G.
- 1:16:10Speaker 3: I got nothing of love for him. You know, Hammer
- 1:16:12Speaker 3: wasn't even tripping. I don't know why, but I didn't
- 1:16:15Speaker 3: ask you. But that's my big Bro.
- 1:16:16Speaker 12: You know what's interesting when you say about how you've
- 1:16:18Speaker 12: been able to transcend through every genre, it's because your
- 1:16:21Speaker 12: flow and rhymes have always been so unorthodox.
- 1:16:25Speaker 2: They don't fit a time period anyway.
- 1:16:27Speaker 4: Absolutely, it's no time limit. That's real, bro.
- 1:16:29Speaker 3: Nobody could bite it, nobody. I don't even know what
- 1:16:32Speaker 3: I'm gonna do when I get in the vocal. If
- 1:16:34Speaker 3: I don't know what pattern I'm gonna do, I don't
- 1:16:35Speaker 3: know none of that.
- 1:16:36Speaker 4: I just do it.
- 1:16:37Speaker 3: I'm a professional beat picker, and I know I'm ahead
- 1:16:40Speaker 3: of my time, you know, cause I like to do
- 1:16:42Speaker 3: things that's innovating. I like to do what everybody else don't.
- 1:16:45Speaker 3: Even my slaps. I like them to be up temple,
- 1:16:47Speaker 3: I like them to be slow.
- 1:16:48Speaker 4: I do it all.
- 1:16:48Speaker 3: So I'm just I love to talk about the you know,
- 1:16:51Speaker 3: the hard times, the struggle climb up the ladder, trying
- 1:16:54Speaker 3: to climb up the ladder and climb up and you know.
- 1:16:57Speaker 4: Get over the fence of the ghetto.
- 1:16:58Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying, because that's what we all,
- 1:17:01Speaker 3: that's what we all worked hard for us to, you know,
- 1:17:03Speaker 3: provide our family with uh, you know, with a better life.
- 1:17:07Speaker 5: Was it between forty that did Federal and E forty
- 1:17:10Speaker 5: that did Rule of Thumb.
- 1:17:11Speaker 3: The difference between the FOYD that did Federal and the
- 1:17:14Speaker 3: FOID that did Rule of Thumb is now I the
- 1:17:16Speaker 3: things I would have said back then, I think things out,
- 1:17:20Speaker 3: you know what i mean. Like back then, I was
- 1:17:21Speaker 3: just a young, hard headed, managed little dude, you know
- 1:17:23Speaker 3: what I'm saying, just just spitting what I spend.
- 1:17:26Speaker 4: Now I'm more of a I'm more of a teacher,
- 1:17:30Speaker 4: you know.

- 1:20:52Speaker 12: wish for others, because it just might get to you.
- 1:20:55Speaker 12: All right, to wish bad things for somebody else is
- 1:20:58Speaker 12: actually like looking for something bad to happen to you,
- 1:21:00Speaker 12: because when you wish bad karm on somebody else, you
- 1:21:03Speaker 12: bring bad karm on yourself. Okay, you are consuming and
- 1:21:06Speaker 12: bringing in negative vibes into your life. Instead, be the
- 1:21:08Speaker 12: person you wish they were. Be the person who brings
- 1:21:10Speaker 12: only positive thoughts and good vibes into their own life,
- 1:21:13Speaker 12: because being negative yourself will only bring negative into your
- 1:21:16Speaker 12: life don't poison yourself hoping somebody else will die.
- 1:21:20Speaker 9: All right, breakfast club bitches, You y'all finish or y'all done.
