4:16
Speaker 1: Page News. Start off with sports. The Bucks beat the
4:19
Speaker 1: Celtics last night ninety seven eighty six, forcing a game seven.
4:24
Speaker 1: The Raptors play the Wizards, Cats play the Paces, and
4:26
Speaker 1: Utah play the Thunder. Now I can't believe that the
4:29
Speaker 1: series is three three with the Milwaukee and the Celtics
4:32
Speaker 1: in the books, Mica. Celtics have so many players out,
4:34
Speaker 1: yeah dah, now they still hold it on. And our
4:37
Speaker 1: last night was the NFL Draft. The Browns had the
4:39
Speaker 1: first pick. They picked up a quarterback, and the Giants
4:41
Speaker 1: had a second pick. We picked up a running back.
4:44
Speaker 1: Yeah Barkley, yo, got yeah. Now let's talk about Bill Cosby. Well,
4:50
Speaker 1: Bill Cosby has been found guilty on all three counts
4:53
Speaker 1: of aggravated indecent assault. That was for drugging and molesting
4:58
Speaker 1: Area Constant two thousand and four at his home. He
5:03
Speaker 1: is facing a maximum of ten years in prison for
5:05
Speaker 1: each one of those charges, aka life for Bill Cosby.
5:08
Speaker 1: Now Here is Lelie Bernard one of the victims. It
5:12
Speaker 1: became evident to me that the justice system is light
5:16
Speaker 1: years behind modern culture. But today this jury has shown
5:22
Speaker 1: what the mean Too movement has saying is that women
5:25
Speaker 1: are worthy of being believed. It is not just a
5:29
Speaker 1: victory for the sixty two of us publicly known Cosby
5:33
Speaker 1: survivors whom Gloria Allred has helped give a voice. It
5:38
Speaker 1: is also a victory for womanhood and it is a
5:42
Speaker 1: victory for all sexual assault survivors. I've been saying for
5:46
Speaker 1: three years that Bill Cosby should just die. I mean yo,
5:48
Speaker 1: just to ask the grim rifle for the check please
5:50
Speaker 1: all right. Another one of his accuser has made this statement.
5:54
Speaker 1: Janice Baker Kenney is her name, and she said, I'm
5:56
Speaker 1: overwhelmed with joy, relief and gratitude, joy that finally us
6:00
Speaker 1: just has been served, relief that the years of this
6:02
Speaker 1: toxic chain of silence has been broken and we can
6:05
Speaker 1: now move forward with our heads health high as survivors
6:08
Speaker 1: and not victim. What is Bill Cosby sticking around for man?
6:11
Speaker 1: This is when this this is when sometimes you got
6:13
Speaker 1: to die just in the Nicoti. I mean, you're right,
6:14
Speaker 1: But I got a couple of questions, like one, is
6:16
Speaker 1: there an appeal because the first one was deadlocked? So
6:18
Speaker 1: this is the second one. Can he appeal at or
6:20
Speaker 1: is it just it's over as a wrap in the second?
6:22
Speaker 1: I have no idea. Do you still support the Cosby Show?
6:25
Speaker 1: Still still watch the Cosby Show because we don't. We
6:28
Speaker 1: don't mess with all Kelly because all Kelly's a pedophile,
6:30
Speaker 1: but the Cosby because Kelly is Bill Cosby. Is the
6:34
Speaker 1: story of Heathcliff Huxtable should have been called the show
6:38
Speaker 1: by the way, all right. The story is about Heathcliff
6:40
Speaker 1: Hustable in his fictional family. Yes, I will still watch
6:43
Speaker 1: The Heathcliff Show, positive black families. Yes, I will still
6:46
Speaker 1: watch Different World. Yes, I will still watch Fat Albert
6:49
Speaker 1: in the game. Absolutely only yellow putting pops because they're
6:51
Speaker 1: too high in sugar and I don't think he have
6:53
Speaker 1: a tip does in the one anymore anyway, But it
6:54
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. Yes, I was still watching The Cobby Show. Okay,
6:58
Speaker 1: all right, And there was heartbreaking video making the rounds
7:00
Speaker 1: yesterday of former NFL defensive back Desmond Marrow. He was
7:04
Speaker 1: grabbed by the police and slam to the ground. I
7:07
Speaker 1: know you guys had to have seen it. No, I
7:09
Speaker 1: didn't because people were sending it to me. I'm like,
7:11
Speaker 1: you'll stop sending me stuff like this, Okay, I'm already
7:14
Speaker 1: triggered by all the other police brutality that I see
7:17
Speaker 1: in this country. I don't he posted it. He posted
7:20
Speaker 1: it himself as well, with the whole description of what happened,
7:23
Speaker 1: and here's some of what went down. I'm not even
7:26
Speaker 1: fighting guy, I'm not even doing us. Unbelievable. I don't
7:36
Speaker 1: even it's unbelievable. Threw him on his face, and it
7:54
Speaker 1: looked like he went well. Clearly he posted the video
7:56
Speaker 1: for it to go viral so that people could see him. No, No,
7:59
Speaker 1: I didn't. I'm not knocking him for that. I'm just
8:01
Speaker 1: saying what I'm not watching. Okay, I'm not doing it.
8:04
Speaker 1: I'm not doing that to myself. He said that the
8:05
Speaker 1: officers tried to say he had a gun, and they
8:07
Speaker 1: don't show what happened before they attacked him and had
8:10
Speaker 1: him on the ground where you couldn't breathe it and
8:11
Speaker 1: it looks like he passed out at one point, he said.
8:13
Speaker 1: Officer said he had a gun in his pocket, but
8:15
Speaker 1: it was only a cell phone. He said the police
8:17
Speaker 1: knocked his teeth out, slammed him on his head, and
8:20
Speaker 1: choked him until he was unconscious. He also suffered a
8:23
Speaker 1: shoulder strain and a shoulder strain and a concussion, and
8:27
Speaker 1: he said it was terrifyingly cooperating for the officers, zero resistance.
8:31
Speaker 1: He said he thought he was going to die. I'm
8:33
Speaker 1: just not a glutton for punishment. Man. I can't just
8:36
Speaker 1: continue to put stuff like that in my spirit, and
8:38
Speaker 1: they can't do it, Like something has to happen like this.
8:40
Speaker 1: This can't continue to go on. Man. The way they
8:42
Speaker 1: threw him on his face like they said it was,
8:43
Speaker 1: it was two three officers there at the time, and
8:45
Speaker 1: one of them is choking him. I'm looking at it
8:48
Speaker 1: like this is so disrespectful. I just can't imagine that's
8:50
Speaker 1: my son, or my dad or me. You won five
8:53
Speaker 1: minutes with every cop alone, like like ah, and you know,
8:56
Speaker 1: and exactly, and that feeling you have right there is
8:59
Speaker 1: exactly why I don't watch videos because I don't have
9:01
Speaker 1: the answers. Well, it's important too, in order to be
9:04
Speaker 1: able to discuss the story, to see what the story is. Because,
9:06
Speaker 1: by the way, how would you even know what happened
9:08
Speaker 1: if you didn't watch it. But see, this is what
9:09
Speaker 1: you don't realize the angel LEI or maybe you do,
9:11
Speaker 1: but you're not acknowledging it. This is the same story
9:13
Speaker 1: over and over all the time. Well, because he posited
9:16
Speaker 1: himself and wanted people to see it, I watched it,
9:19
Speaker 1: robbing everybody that that this happens to that doesn't take it,
9:22
Speaker 1: you know, happing to stuff and clark whatever. When you
9:25
Speaker 1: talk to people like Leslie and we talk to people
9:26
Speaker 1: like Leslie mc spatting Mike Brown mom and she talks
9:28
Speaker 1: about how people move on too fast. They just hashtag
9:31
Speaker 1: and j others for Mike Brown. Now they move on
9:33
Speaker 1: to something else, like it happens all the time, over
9:36
Speaker 1: and over. I can't be a glutton for point of
9:38
Speaker 1: it's important to not getting numb to those things and
9:40
Speaker 1: to still continue to speak out about it. All right, guys,
9:43
Speaker 1: that's front page news. Get it off your chests. Eight
9:45
Speaker 1: on drip five eight five one oh five one. If
9:47

10:18
Speaker 1: mad because it's like I'm tired of constantly to the
10:22
Speaker 1: black people you get abused by the cops. What bothers
10:25
Speaker 1: me about it? To me as a black person, I
10:28
Speaker 1: just feel like not to say that some of the
10:31
Speaker 1: rallies and the marches and protests and stuff are fake.
10:34
Speaker 1: When some of the stuff happens, I just feel like
10:36
Speaker 1: the same fervor that are people attacked it with in
10:38
Speaker 1: nineteen sixty five, I don't think that same fervor is
10:41
Speaker 1: out on some of these streets that people are protesting
10:43
Speaker 1: and marching on. In twenty fifteen people too quick to
10:46
Speaker 1: make things a hashtag. This stuff can't keep happening. People
10:49
Speaker 1: can't be getting shot. And then we move on two
10:51
Speaker 1: weeks later, and then, like Angela said, become kind of
10:54
Speaker 1: become numb to it. We can't. I mean, we gotta,
10:56
Speaker 1: we gotta keep attacking it. But it just has to
10:58
Speaker 1: be real to me, has to be considered and asked
11:00
Speaker 1: to be forever. Nothing that can ever stopped us. I'm
11:03
Speaker 1: gonna be honest with you, man, there's nothing that makes
11:05

Speaker 1: like you're sticking ahead and understand your your your agility,
15:28
Speaker 1: and you're detecting what's going on. Every stud you got
15:31
Speaker 1: that feeling in his chest, like because he wanted to

15:42
Speaker 1: that way. Brother. I don't need to see another video.

15:51
Speaker 1: so we continue to have to feel it. It's what
15:53
Speaker 1: makes you think that feeling is gonna go away. I'm
15:55
Speaker 1: a black man in America, Serve I go to therapy
15:57
Speaker 1: for that kind of anxiety. Everybody could afford der I
16:01
Speaker 1: was like you said that everybody could afford dirf like
16:03
Speaker 1: to be going to every Friday to the surface, the
16:06
Speaker 1: talk about that we're feeling with it every three. When
16:08
Speaker 1: you say stuff like that, you sound like you're a
16:10
Speaker 1: frestated Kanye who was checking up because it's over somewhere.
16:13
Speaker 1: Oh God, everything is Kanye. And now at the time
16:17
Speaker 1: you got this lay in the test, it's not happening
16:19
Speaker 1: you every day, and you can I can ask you
16:22
Speaker 1: can ask you a question. Let me ask your question, sir,
16:25
Speaker 1: head man, if you know it stove is hot, how
16:27
Speaker 1: many times you gotta put your hand on that stove
16:28
Speaker 1: to know it's hot? Every time? All right, man, have
16:32
Speaker 1: a blessed day, Have a good morning, Have a good morning, sir. Alright,
16:35
Speaker 1: have a good morning. Hello. Who's this? What's good? Brothers?
16:38
Speaker 1: Just JV from Charles? All right, j A four to three?
16:41
Speaker 1: What's happening? What's good? Brother? Hey? I got a question
16:44
Speaker 1: many a situation man. Like what he said though, Like
16:48
Speaker 1: he had a point though, like why can't somebody had
16:50
Speaker 1: it on the FID and that and that be it?
16:52
Speaker 1: And on you? Why you gotta like down grade somebody
16:55
Speaker 1: and talk down on him man for what he think. Well,
16:57
Speaker 1: you know, freedom is peace, freedom of thought, freedom of expression,
16:59
Speaker 1: works of ways. You can have your opinion, but I
17:01
Speaker 1: can also tell you that your opinion is stupid. Yeah, yeah,
17:04
Speaker 1: I'll feel you on that. But like I just feel
17:06
Speaker 1: like so many people talking down on them. Man. If
17:07
Speaker 1: the man think like that, little thing like that, I mean,
17:10
Speaker 1: we can't stop him from thinking however he wants to think,
17:12
Speaker 1: but you can also express that you are opposed to
17:14
Speaker 1: how he thinks. We can have opinions exactly. Whynot? You know,
17:17
Speaker 1: we don't have to agree. We could agree that people
17:19
Speaker 1: who have been so affected by things that Donald Trump
17:21
Speaker 1: have done in policies that he's put into place, they
17:23
Speaker 1: feel strongly about it. They want to express how much
17:25
Speaker 1: they disagree. Yeah, I feel that, but you know, like
17:27
Speaker 1: some people, they just don't to breathe like, what do
17:29
Speaker 1: you say? I don't reree one hundred percent what everybody say.
17:31
Speaker 1: I'm the same way. I don't know nobody agree too.
17:35
Speaker 1: But if your family got deported, or your father or
17:38
Speaker 1: your child, and it's all because of the policies Donald
17:40
Speaker 1: Trump has put into place, you probably more strongly disagree.
17:43
Speaker 1: And that's why. That is why a lot of people
17:44
Speaker 1: don't like to express their opinion because they're afraid of
17:47
Speaker 1: people disagree with him. That's why I don't trust people
17:49
Speaker 1: who tell me everything I want to hear. Those politically
17:51
Speaker 1: correct people a trash man, you know what. I feel
17:54
Speaker 1: like it's more black people that says scared to express
17:57
Speaker 1: they being you know what I mean. That's why I like,
17:59
Speaker 1: I'm not saying on the Trump I would say, well,
18:01
Speaker 1: that's definitely not my opinion. I don't know if there's
18:03
Speaker 1: a I don't know about that one. I'm thinking a
18:06
Speaker 1: lot of black people without the Port Trump. But it
18:08
Speaker 1: is some black people out the Port Trump. But nah,
18:10
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say a lot. All right, get it off
18:12
Speaker 1: your chests eight ondred five A five one oh five
18:14
Speaker 1: one Ye. We got rumors on the way. Yes, and
18:16
Speaker 1: Callice has said some things about Nas, her ex husband,
18:20
Speaker 1: that we've never heard before. So I'll give you the
18:23
Speaker 1: details of what she says happened in her relationship. All right,
18:26
Speaker 1: we'll get into all that when we come back. Keep
18:28
Speaker 1: it locked. As to Breakfast Club, Come morning, the Breakfast Club. Morning.
18:34
Speaker 1: Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We
18:38
Speaker 1: are the Breakfast Club. Y'all. Happy Friday, Happy Friday. Let's
18:42
Speaker 1: get to the room. As let's talk Calice. It's about
18:50
Speaker 1: is the rumor report. Angela Yee found the Breakfast Club.
18:55
Speaker 1: So Calice did an interview with Hollywood Unlocked, and he
18:58
Speaker 1: had she had a lot of things to say about
18:59
Speaker 1: her ex has been Nas. Now. They got married in
19:01
Speaker 1: two thousand and three and their divorce was finalized in
19:05
Speaker 1: two ten. And she said in their relationship because when
19:08
Speaker 1: they got together, she was only twenty two years old.
19:11
Speaker 1: There were a lot of highs and lows. Here's what
19:13
Speaker 1: she said. We had like really intense highs and really
19:17
Speaker 1: intense lows, and intense high would be like money was
19:20
Speaker 1: rolling in. We were like we were young too, Like
19:23
Speaker 1: I was twenty two when I met him, I was
19:25
Speaker 1: a baby. So like we were drinking too much, smoking
19:28
Speaker 1: too much, we were spending too much, I mean, and
19:31
Speaker 1: like we were we lived hard, you know, and so
19:33
Speaker 1: because of that, like when that comes down, it goes
19:37
Speaker 1: really low, Like so it's hard, you know, because there's
19:40
Speaker 1: no balance, there's no like normalcy, all right. She goes
19:44
Speaker 1: on to say that she put up with a lot
19:47
Speaker 1: of behavior that was unacceptable. What was that unacceptable behavior? Well,
19:51
Speaker 1: listen here, I didn't file for divorce because he cheated.
19:54
Speaker 1: He'd been cheating for two years and I knew that
19:56
Speaker 1: it was because on top of all the other stuff,
20:00
Speaker 1: then you're going to cheat. It was really toxic. And
20:03
Speaker 1: I was pregnant, you know, seven months pregnant. I was terrified.
20:05
Speaker 1: I was like, I cannot bring a person into this.
20:08
Speaker 1: This is a freaking mess, Like this is a mess,
20:10
Speaker 1: and I can't control this. I gotta get out while
20:12
Speaker 1: you're pregnant. Yeah, I followed for divorce in April and
20:16
Speaker 1: Night was born in July. So what's the mess? We
20:18
Speaker 1: made a toxic well, as she goes on to talk
20:21
Speaker 1: about when they were drinking, how they would physically fight.
20:24
Speaker 1: Did he hit me? Did I hit him back? It
20:28
Speaker 1: was because there he would block out. He would drink
20:30
Speaker 1: too much. He drank way too much. He will never
20:33
Speaker 1: admit it, and so a lot of the stuff he
20:35
Speaker 1: may not remember. You know. There have been times when
20:38
Speaker 1: like literally we would have the worst night ever, like
20:41
Speaker 1: and we would wake up the next day it's like
20:43
Speaker 1: it never happened. Was he ever remorseful? He bought gifts.
20:48
Speaker 1: So I guess what she's saying is on top of
20:50
Speaker 1: the cheating, it was all of these things as well.
20:53
Speaker 1: And she also discusses how she didn't say anything about it,
20:57
Speaker 1: and when she saw the pictures of Rihanna, how it's
20:59
Speaker 1: struck a chord in her. Something reminded me of Rihanna.
21:03
Speaker 1: The only way I can describe it was like double jeps,
21:05
Speaker 1: Like I felt like do I chump in? Like do
21:07
Speaker 1: I say it? Because I had bruises all over my
21:09
Speaker 1: body at that time. Seeing her the way she looked
21:12
Speaker 1: and then looking at myself. I was embarrassed for me.
21:14
Speaker 1: It was kind of like, you're gonna just let this go.
21:17
Speaker 1: You're not gonna say anything. We were married, we weren't dating.
21:19
Speaker 1: I didn't say anything because I wanted things to work,
21:22
Speaker 1: and because I was delusional, and because I thought that
21:25
Speaker 1: like I could like love past this. Yikes. Well I
21:30
Speaker 1: was Calissa and Hollywood unlocked. So check out the whole
21:33
Speaker 1: interview if you want to hear everything. So she had
21:35
Speaker 1: to say, as radio personalities, you don't have to have
21:37
Speaker 1: an opinion on that, right, No, Yeah, I mean, because
21:39
Speaker 1: there's three sides every story, absolutely all right. Now, Sierra
21:43
Speaker 1: is discussing Future and saying that he just is a
21:47
Speaker 1: no show for visits about thirty seven percent of the
21:50
Speaker 1: time with young Future, and she also says that when
21:53
Speaker 1: he does spend time, usually Future ends up being with
21:57
Speaker 1: the grandmother or great grandmother instead of with his dad,
22:00
Speaker 1: and that she really gets to face time with her
22:02
Speaker 1: son when he's gone. And he also has health issues
22:05
Speaker 1: that are even worse because he's been traveling across country,
22:08
Speaker 1: So she doesn't think that it's a good idea the
22:11
Speaker 1: way they have their travel schedule right now, and that
22:13
Speaker 1: he's constantly exhausted due to the travel and has had
22:15
Speaker 1: emotional breakdowns while at school. So what Sierra wants to
22:18
Speaker 1: do is go to mediation and hammer out a better
22:21
Speaker 1: schedule because her son is having all these health issues
22:24
Speaker 1: and he's traveling too much. So I don't get the
22:26
Speaker 1: point of the story. What was that about. Well, she's
22:29
Speaker 1: these documents and from her going to court and saying
22:31
Speaker 1: that she's taking Future to court and these are the
22:32
Speaker 1: issues that she's having with Future raising their son's Future,
22:36
Speaker 1: is not spending enough time with the son. I remember
22:38
Speaker 1: at one point she was keeping the sun from Future
22:41
Speaker 1: once in the landing. He's in Seattle, So the flying
22:43
Speaker 1: back and forth. He's saying that her son can't take it,
22:45
Speaker 1: and she's saying it's not future anyway. He's coming to
22:49
Speaker 1: see the grandma, so let's do another schedule. You know,
22:51
Speaker 1: he's thinking that my son's going to spend time with
22:53
Speaker 1: his dad, but he's actually not there and the grandmother's
22:55
Speaker 1: taking care of her. Got you, okay? All right, I'm
22:57
Speaker 1: Angela Yee And that is your rumor report, right, thank you,
23:00
Speaker 1: miss ye. Now, when we come back, we have Leslie
23:03
Speaker 1: mcspadden joining us. That's Mike Brown's mom and Jason Pollock.
23:07
Speaker 1: Now they have a new documentary and it's all about
23:11
Speaker 1: what happened that night and that day and leading up
23:13
Speaker 1: to it and leading up after it and happened. Just listen,
23:16
Speaker 1: and it gives you more of a viewpoint of who
23:18
Speaker 1: Mike Brown was because I know they tried to paint
23:20
Speaker 1: him as some bad hid that was a quote unquote thug.
23:23
Speaker 1: I could only watch like fifteen minutes at that documentary.
23:26
Speaker 1: Stuff gives you trauma. It's a good article on Huffington
23:29
Speaker 1: Post about how watching those police videos and stuff gives
23:31
Speaker 1: you trauma. I can't I can't watch that. I had
23:32
Speaker 1: to stop it in fifteen minutes, Like I can't take
23:34
Speaker 1: this anyways. Breakfast Clubal Morning Morning, everybody is DJ Envy,
23:39
Speaker 1: Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy. We are the Breakfast Club.
23:42
Speaker 1: We got some special guests in the building, Leslie mcspadden,
23:45
Speaker 1: which is Mike Brown's mom, and director Jason Pollock. Now,
23:49
Speaker 1: this documentary made me tear. I couldn't watch the whole
23:51
Speaker 1: thing last night. Wow, it was it was that that strongest.
23:54
Speaker 1: I don't even think I got twenty minutes in. Now
23:56
Speaker 1: you know, Eavy express how difficult it is for a
24:00
Speaker 1: to even watch this story, how difficult it is to
24:02
Speaker 1: keep telling this story. It's very difficult. It's difficult to
24:05
Speaker 1: relive this story every day that Ferguson will not hold
24:10
Speaker 1: these people accountable for what they what they've done, and
24:13
Speaker 1: what they continue to do. So it's very difficult. I
24:15
Speaker 1: think you have to though, and I know it's hard
24:17
Speaker 1: because there's so many facts and so many things that
24:19
Speaker 1: we didn't know. You know, all we heard was, you know,
24:22
Speaker 1: Mike Brown charged the police and the police shot. But
24:24
Speaker 1: just seeing the detailed and so many witnesses, and I
24:28
Speaker 1: still can't understand how how they want to say got
24:31
Speaker 1: off because it was so many people that said, I
24:34
Speaker 1: seen this, I've seen his hands up, the cop ran
24:37
Speaker 1: past me, the cop shot him. It kept like, you know,
24:40
Speaker 1: making the statement right and never having even submitted a yeah.
24:44
Speaker 1: And they didn't write a police report until they were
24:47
Speaker 1: forced to, and then they produced a document that was
24:50
Speaker 1: basically blank. It's a blank is incident report. However, during
24:55
Speaker 1: the fake alleged robbery, and Mike didn't even rob the store,
24:57
Speaker 1: now we know that, but during that the least report
25:00
Speaker 1: is a full page, so they were able to think
25:02
Speaker 1: of all these words right for the the fake robbery
25:05
Speaker 1: to frame that, but then when they kill him in
25:07
Speaker 1: the middle of the street, it's a blank page. They
25:09
Speaker 1: kept right, they did. They change the evidence a lot.
25:12
Speaker 1: And I'm going to break some news right now. So
25:14
Speaker 1: you talk about the charge. What has been totally unreported
25:17
Speaker 1: is that there is physical evidence at the scene that
25:19
Speaker 1: Michael didn't charge. What Bob McCullough Mayonnaise is trying to
25:23
Speaker 1: do is use fake witness testimony that isn't really reliable
25:28
Speaker 1: to prove that. But the physical evidence defeats witness testimony
25:33
Speaker 1: in the court of law. I thought, so here it is.
25:36
Speaker 1: There's an audio tape of the shooting. It's six point
25:39
Speaker 1: three seconds from the first bullet to the last bullet,
25:42
Speaker 1: so we know that the whole event was six point
25:45
Speaker 1: three seconds. There's blood behind Michael's body on the street
25:49
Speaker 1: in the report. This is all like New York Times.
25:51
Speaker 1: You can look all this upright, twenty one feet and
25:53
Speaker 1: seven inches, So for the first time, we're gonna do
25:56
Speaker 1: this math together. Twenty one feet and seven inches six
26:00
Speaker 1: point three seconds means he moved forward at one mile
26:03
Speaker 1: per hour approximately. That's it. He didn't charge him. That's
26:08
Speaker 1: Darren's entire argument that he had to kill him because
26:11
Speaker 1: he was being charged at Michael didn't charge Darren. He
26:14
Speaker 1: moved approximately one mile an hour, and the physical evidence
26:16
Speaker 1: showed it, and it was completely covered up. Even if
26:18
Speaker 1: you're being charged at twenty one ft away, that's a
26:21
Speaker 1: long way away, like you know what I mean, Like
26:23
Speaker 1: I don't seem like you're an immediate danger, right, But
26:26
Speaker 1: he only moved forward that in six point three seconds.
26:29
Speaker 1: If you charged twenty one feet you could get there
26:31
Speaker 1: and probably about a half a second. That's after being shot.
26:33
Speaker 1: One think about it. Yeah, he was stumbling forward, dying,
26:39
Speaker 1: and he was falling forward and he got shot in
26:42
Speaker 1: the top. He wasn't standing, He was on his knees
26:44
Speaker 1: at that point and he was falling forward with a
26:48
Speaker 1: broken clavical bone and he shot my son in the
26:50
Speaker 1: happen and he came out that he was never scared
26:54
Speaker 1: for his life, Darren Wilson. He ran after my son.
26:58
Speaker 1: He pursued him. He was shooting like a cowboy between
27:02
Speaker 1: two apartment buildings that hold over a hundred people, including children,
27:08
Speaker 1: ride their bikes. They didn't even count all the bullets.
27:11
Speaker 1: They did a very poor job of this the game.
27:14
Speaker 1: But why you know, because I'm watching it and you
27:17
Speaker 1: know it was too young boys. There was two young
27:19
Speaker 1: men out there that day. Why your son over the
27:21
Speaker 1: other kid? You know what? What was his Why why
27:24
Speaker 1: my son at all? All this training that they're claiming
27:27
Speaker 1: to have and that he said kicked in, we saw
27:31
Speaker 1: none of it. It always pissed me off because they
27:33
Speaker 1: put out that corner store video to surveilance from the
27:36
Speaker 1: store and acted like he robbed the store, as if
27:38
Speaker 1: that warranted him being gunned down in the middle of
27:41
Speaker 1: the street. Yes, but in addition to all of that,
27:44
Speaker 1: what was important about watching this documentary is seeing all
27:46
Speaker 1: the great things that he was doing, and seeing what
27:48
Speaker 1: he was doing in school, and hearing from his family.
27:51
Speaker 1: Because sometimes they try to make somebody just seem like
27:53
Speaker 1: a monster. And the way the press did that in
27:56
Speaker 1: the media and the police officers but they put out
27:58
Speaker 1: made it seem like he was a scared kid, he
28:00
Speaker 1: was a bad kid, he was doing bad things. But
28:03
Speaker 1: then you get to see what he was really doing
28:05
Speaker 1: in real life, and that's important. That's what I'm saying.
28:07
Speaker 1: How did that make y'all feel like when he was
28:08
Speaker 1: trying to paint him like that, I knew the truth
28:11
Speaker 1: and I still know the truth to this day. And
28:13
Speaker 1: that's where my book came into play, to share who
28:16
Speaker 1: my son was over those eighteen years and not to
28:20
Speaker 1: give you all a different perspective from this eighteen second
28:23
Speaker 1: clip that they showed, which had another video attached to
28:26
Speaker 1: it that no one had ever seen until Jason put
28:28
Speaker 1: the video out. I had a meeting with the governor
28:30
Speaker 1: and he told me he tried to stop them from
28:33
Speaker 1: showing the video. This is the governor. These were his
28:36
Speaker 1: words to me. He said that if there was video
28:39
Speaker 1: when he was eighteen, he wouldn't be governor, meaning and
28:42
Speaker 1: say that at eighteen years of age, still a kid,
28:44
Speaker 1: your mind thinks in a different way, and that people
28:47
Speaker 1: do things and they make mistakes that later on in
28:49
Speaker 1: life you regret or you feel story of your bounty
28:52
Speaker 1: and say, when I was younger, dumb, I did X
28:54
Speaker 1: y Z. So that was his purpose for saying it,
28:56
Speaker 1: because him himself did not feel that what happened on
29:00
Speaker 1: can't feel should have happened, what happened to all the
29:01
Speaker 1: witnesses because it was I mean it was three witnesses
29:04
Speaker 1: that y'all talked about. Then it was a construction. Five
29:06
Speaker 1: witnesses in the film. So what happened Like, Yeah, So
29:09
Speaker 1: basically Bob Mayo uh covered up all those witnesses, and
29:14
Speaker 1: the prosecutor of Saint Louis County very carefully took all
29:19
Speaker 1: the witnesses that were in line with Michael and he
29:22
Speaker 1: picked them apart and figured out a way to use
29:25
Speaker 1: the physical evidence at the scene to say, your version
29:29
Speaker 1: of events doesn't match up with the physical evidence, so
29:32
Speaker 1: we can't use it. Thirteen witnesses agreed with Dorian in
29:35
Speaker 1: the street. He threw them all out. Anyone that agreed
29:38
Speaker 1: with Darren's. He cherry picked pieces of theirs, even though
29:42
Speaker 1: parts of theirs also were against the physical evidence. Three people,
29:46
Speaker 1: three people right on being a witness who completely lie.
29:50
Speaker 1: It's it's just a huge, massive cover up that they
29:55
Speaker 1: needed to perpetrate on America in twenty fourteen because they
29:58
Speaker 1: need to keep Mike Brown's name down, because they don't
30:01
Speaker 1: want to say that everything that happened after Mike Brown
30:04
Speaker 1: is a valuable They want to say, oh, it started
30:06
Speaker 1: because of a thug, It started because of a rob
30:09
Speaker 1: or all this stuff. Look at them all on the street.
30:11
Speaker 1: They're so silly. No, Mike Brown was an angel, and
30:14
Speaker 1: he was a great guy, and he had just graduated
30:17
Speaker 1: high school and all of that was a lie, and
30:19
Speaker 1: it's still a lie to this day. That's why it's
30:21
Speaker 1: so important that we uncover Justice from Michael Brown because
30:25
Speaker 1: that was the first hashtag in twenty fourteen, before Ferguson,
30:28
Speaker 1: before all the other hashtags. But we lost Justice from
30:32
Speaker 1: Michael Brown, and the Ferguson report came out, and the
30:34
Speaker 1: Justice from Michael Brown before came out, and everyone talks
30:37
Speaker 1: about the Ferguson Report and no one talks about Mike anymore.
30:40
Speaker 1: And that's when we started making this movie because I
30:42
Speaker 1: realized down there that there were all these films going on,
30:44
Speaker 1: but nobody was working on the Mike Brown case anymore.
30:47
Speaker 1: We have more with Leslie mcspadden and Jason Pollock when
30:50
Speaker 1: we come back, Don't Move. It's the Breakfast Club, Go Morning,
30:52
Speaker 1: The Breakfast Club Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy angela Yee
30:59
Speaker 1: shallown guy. We all the Breakfast Club. We have Jason Pollock,
31:03
Speaker 1: director of Strange Food, and also Mike Brown's mom, Leslie
31:07
Speaker 1: mcspadden in the building. Ye. So, Jason, what's your personnel
31:10
Speaker 1: connection that made you want to get involved in telling
31:12
Speaker 1: the story. I had been working in schools that the
31:15
Speaker 1: education community calls dropout factories prior to Ferguson for three years.
31:19
Speaker 1: Dropout factories are school with a fifty to sixty percent
31:22
Speaker 1: dropout rate. There are tons of these in America. And
31:26
Speaker 1: so I was working with all these kids in these
31:28
Speaker 1: credit catch up rooms, which is in the film, and
31:31
Speaker 1: they were the best kids. If you're in a dropout
31:33
Speaker 1: factory and you drop out, but then you go back
31:35
Speaker 1: to try to graduate high school, you're a rock star.
31:38
Speaker 1: You have so much thick skin because some complex stuff
31:40
Speaker 1: happened to you. So I found out Mike was in
31:42
Speaker 1: that room, and he was he had just graduated. And
31:45
Speaker 1: then I saw the picture that they were painting of him,
31:47
Speaker 1: and I just knew it was a lie because I
31:49
Speaker 1: had been working for years with all these students. Like,
31:52
Speaker 1: if you're in that room, there's no way you're robbin
31:54
Speaker 1: stores at night, There's no way you're doing any of that.
31:56
Speaker 1: There's no way you would charge a cop after you
31:58
Speaker 1: are shots. We would go for a cops gun. None
32:01
Speaker 1: of it made any sense. And all of it is
32:03
Speaker 1: a lie. Like to go back to the convenience store tape.
32:06
Speaker 1: They didn't show us the full tape. There was a
32:08
Speaker 1: whole tape the night before of Mike making what seemed
32:11
Speaker 1: to be a trade with the store and then going
32:14
Speaker 1: back the next day to get cigarella, And we put
32:17
Speaker 1: that out last year for the first time. They covered
32:19
Speaker 1: that tape up for three years. They willingly gave us
32:22
Speaker 1: the CD from the store, the people in the store.
32:25
Speaker 1: It was never put of any of the evidence. They
32:28
Speaker 1: never turned it over to Saint Louis County fergus seeing
32:31
Speaker 1: any of the lawyers. They just gave us personally the CD.
32:34
Speaker 1: Say here, here you go what the owner of the
32:36
Speaker 1: store saying about that day. The stores never called. The
32:39
Speaker 1: store never called nine on one. The nine on one
32:41
Speaker 1: call was made from a woman in the store who
32:44
Speaker 1: didn't know what she was seeing. To this day, the
32:46
Speaker 1: store is never called nine to one on Michael Brown
32:49
Speaker 1: because they know, in my opinion, they know what it was,
32:53
Speaker 1: and to this day they still don't want to just
32:55
Speaker 1: admit what it was. It's interesting how you said everybody
32:58
Speaker 1: kind of like moved on. But I wonder about that
33:01
Speaker 1: because other other things happen like other police shootings than
33:06
Speaker 1: it's like every day it's a new hashtag. Yeah, Freddy Gray,
33:09
Speaker 1: Walter Scott. I mean it's intense. But if we don't
33:12
Speaker 1: what I want to do with this is showed that
33:14
Speaker 1: if we don't actually unravel these cases, if we just
33:18
Speaker 1: keep going to the streets and then losing, and then
33:20
Speaker 1: go into the streets and losing, like it takes it
33:23
Speaker 1: took me four years to unravel this case, that's what
33:25
Speaker 1: it takes to do these cases. But we need someone
33:27
Speaker 1: assigned to each of these hashtags now so that we
33:30
Speaker 1: turn justice, because cops need to know that if they
33:33
Speaker 1: shoot and kill us that they're gonna go to jail.
33:36
Speaker 1: And right now they know they're not going to go
33:39
Speaker 1: to jail. As soon as you said that, I was like,
33:41
Speaker 1: they don't know, they don't know at all. In fact,
33:44
Speaker 1: they know that the system is going to protect them
33:46
Speaker 1: at all costs. How did that change though? Because we
33:49
Speaker 1: get justice for one, we get justice for Mike, we
33:52
Speaker 1: show that Darren is a criminal, and the America starts realizing, oh,
33:55
Speaker 1: these guys are criminals. So what can happen now? If anything? Legally,
33:59
Speaker 1: there is a lot of new evidences. Never charge first,
34:02
Speaker 1: we need to get him charged. I thought they like
34:06
Speaker 1: they wrote it off his like they declined to indict. Yeah, correct,
34:10
Speaker 1: that's that was the first thing from Barba Color. The
34:12
Speaker 1: second was they wouldn't bring him up on any charges
34:16
Speaker 1: because he said the whole thing about the physical evidence.
34:18
Speaker 1: We hired so many people to come out in that
34:21
Speaker 1: were specialists and professionals. And this is what the film
34:25
Speaker 1: is showing you that they did a lousy, lazy job
34:28
Speaker 1: of investigating because they were never going to indict him, persecute,
34:33
Speaker 1: prosecute him at all. It wasn't even the thought of them,
34:36
Speaker 1: you know, in their minds. So hopefully we can get
34:39
Speaker 1: a real he's still the officer thom No, No, what happened?
34:43
Speaker 1: What happens to people like that? They're going he's living.
34:46
Speaker 1: He's living twenty five minutes away right now, Yes, having barbecues.
34:50
Speaker 1: And imagine what that's like to be the mother of
34:53
Speaker 1: your son knowing that the killer of your child is
34:55
Speaker 1: having barbecues twenty five minutes away from you every day
34:58
Speaker 1: and she has to walk drive by that store and
35:00
Speaker 1: drive down Canfield. I mean, the pain that she is
35:04
Speaker 1: going through. I cannot imagine and she bears this for
35:07
Speaker 1: all of us. She doesn't have to be here today,
35:10
Speaker 1: this is this is hard for her to discuss this.
35:12
Speaker 1: She's here for us so that we can try to
35:14
Speaker 1: help the world understand what happened. How do you? How
35:17
Speaker 1: do you feel about I don't even want to say
35:18
Speaker 1: his name, but Darren Wilson. Oh. I know people tell
35:24
Speaker 1: me all the time I have to forgive so that
35:25
Speaker 1: I can move forward. But this isn't someone ever supported
35:28
Speaker 1: my life that I love and cared about, you know,
35:30
Speaker 1: talk about it. I don't have to forgive him. Forgiveness
35:33
Speaker 1: is overrated. I say that all the time. I'm perfectly fine. Fan, somebody,
35:36
Speaker 1: thank you, And as wee how hard is it for
35:38
Speaker 1: you to live there still? And even for the witnesses
35:40
Speaker 1: that came forward, because I'm sure the police department gives
35:43
Speaker 1: I know they're known to give people a hard time.
35:46
Speaker 1: You know, I've never lived in Ferguson, where I was
35:50
Speaker 1: saying was about three minutes away from the scene of
35:53
Speaker 1: what happened. I recently moved, and when I recently moved,
35:58
Speaker 1: I found out that he was twenty five minutes away
36:01
Speaker 1: from me. I've been very disturbed since finding that out.
36:05
Speaker 1: I will rise above this and I'm going to look
36:09
Speaker 1: them in the face every day. If I'm elected to
36:11
Speaker 1: city council and I'm going to run, and when I
36:14
Speaker 1: get back home, that's the first thing on my agenda.
36:17
Speaker 1: And that's the only way. I'm dealing with it in
36:19
Speaker 1: a spiritual way, and I'm letting God be my God.
36:21
Speaker 1: I lean into him more every day. I've been giving
36:24
Speaker 1: so many false promises, a boy, men, you know, people
36:27
Speaker 1: here and there and saying I'm going to get justice,
36:29
Speaker 1: and we see what has happened a lot of those
36:31
Speaker 1: people have walked away from their position since then. I
36:34
Speaker 1: ended up with an old, white, seventy two year old
36:37
Speaker 1: judge because two black judges in Saint Louis refused themself
36:41
Speaker 1: from the case. I'm really really hard, giving a really
36:44
Speaker 1: hard time, you know, and but God brought me to
36:48
Speaker 1: it and he's going to bring me through it. I've
36:49
Speaker 1: been strong up until this point. I've been a strong
36:52
Speaker 1: person my whole life. The recused itself from the case.
36:55
Speaker 1: They scared away. Man. Why I did think, you know,
36:58
Speaker 1: they asked me to be on a pan with these
37:00
Speaker 1: very same women in May of last year, and I
37:03
Speaker 1: think they were a little nervous about what I may
37:05
Speaker 1: say to them because they wanted my remarks before I
37:08
Speaker 1: entered the panel. Wow, so I relined it. I declined it.
37:11
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, and I don't know why they did that,
37:14
Speaker 1: because we speak education and black households very strongly for
37:20
Speaker 1: reasons like this, for when times like this happened, that
37:22
Speaker 1: we can be there for one another. I mean, that's
37:25
Speaker 1: the whole point I thought. I thought the whole point
37:26
Speaker 1: was that I looked like us. I have been sent
37:28
Speaker 1: us in those courtrooms and the fact that when we
37:30
Speaker 1: have that opportunity, they don't, They don't want to stand
37:32
Speaker 1: up like scared. They scared the set day matter. So
37:38
Speaker 1: they left you, what are your plan for Ferguson if
37:41
Speaker 1: you do make city council. I just want to show
37:43
Speaker 1: them how it looks to be completely affected and you
37:47
Speaker 1: nothing happens afterwards and their mental illness is it's real
37:52
Speaker 1: when something like this happens to you. And why does
37:54
Speaker 1: he get all the protection and we get absolutely nothing.
37:58
Speaker 1: My lawyers walked in out with the best presentation and
38:01
Speaker 1: they came back and they offered us money and at
38:04
Speaker 1: that point, being down to our third strike and not
38:07
Speaker 1: winning anything in the beginning, knowing that we would walk
38:11
Speaker 1: into this court room and look at the same jurors
38:13
Speaker 1: that decided not to indic they wanted to take the settlement.
38:17
Speaker 1: So with that settlement, I'm going back and fighting again,
38:20
Speaker 1: and I just want to show them what change should
38:23
Speaker 1: look like for a community who has been shook into
38:25
Speaker 1: the court and you all didn't come back and try
38:27
Speaker 1: to even put a band aid on it. And you
38:29
Speaker 1: might as well get the money, I mean the money
38:30
Speaker 1: like you said it and enables you to continue to
38:32
Speaker 1: fight legal stuff. Course, yes, and some of the best lawyers.
38:37
Speaker 1: Let me just say something about the money though. These
38:39
Speaker 1: settlement fees, I think I call them lynching fees because
38:42
Speaker 1: that's all it is. There's no price you can put
38:45
Speaker 1: on these lives that doesn't change a damn thing. And
38:48
Speaker 1: this is just the state paying off families for state
38:51
Speaker 1: sanctioned murder because there's no justice their lynching fees. All right.
38:55
Speaker 1: We have more with Mike Brown's mom, Leslie mcspatten and
38:57
Speaker 1: Jason Pollock. The directors don't move is the Breakfast Ule
39:00
Speaker 1: Morning Toning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlemagne, the guy.
39:04
Speaker 1: We are the Breakfast Club we have Jason Pollock directed
39:08
Speaker 1: in the building. Also Leslie mcspadden, which is Mike Brown's mom. Chute. Jason,
39:12
Speaker 1: what's your background? So? I started my career working for
39:16
Speaker 1: Michael Moore. I made Fahrenheit nine eleven. I founded the
39:21
Speaker 1: Traverse City Film Festival with him. Also, just shout out
39:23
Speaker 1: to Zilla Valentine for hooking this up. I really and
39:27
Speaker 1: I've been in the industry since two thousand and three,
39:30
Speaker 1: so you know, it's like there's no such thing as
39:32
Speaker 1: overnight success, right, I've been doing this for sixteen years.
39:35
Speaker 1: I left Michael in two thousand and six. I directed
39:37
Speaker 1: a first My first feature documentary is called The Youngest Candidate.
39:40
Speaker 1: It's about teenagers that run for office in America. I
39:43
Speaker 1: profiled non white men running for office in the age
39:46
Speaker 1: of Obama and used that as a tool to get
39:48
Speaker 1: the youth vote out with Rock the Vote in two
39:50
Speaker 1: thousand and seven two thousand and eight in the Rise
39:52
Speaker 1: of Obama. And then throughout his career, I was working
39:56
Speaker 1: in schools like I was saying, and I run a
39:57
Speaker 1: creative agency, helped celebrities with their digital media strategies and
40:01
Speaker 1: all that stuff, and was developing my next documentaries When
40:04
Speaker 1: Ferguson happened and I basically had all these clients, I
40:09
Speaker 1: was so mad, and I felt very alone as a
40:12
Speaker 1: white man being mad. Nobody around me even got it,
40:17
Speaker 1: and I was like, are you kidding me? This is
40:19
Speaker 1: like the defining moment of our generation right now? What
40:23
Speaker 1: did they say when you bring it up? I've lost
40:24
Speaker 1: a lot of friends from this, from from well, yeah,
40:28
Speaker 1: not friends like a white acquaintances Like I make them
40:30
Speaker 1: all feel very uncomfortable now. They don't want to hear
40:32
Speaker 1: me talk the way I talked now, but like, I
40:33
Speaker 1: don't have any time for that, and we have a
40:36
Speaker 1: lot of work to do over here. So basically I
40:38
Speaker 1: put my stuff in storage. I moved to Ferguson. I
40:41
Speaker 1: didn't know what I was going to do as a
40:42
Speaker 1: white man. I was not going there with a Christopher
40:44
Speaker 1: Columbus type attitude on the white Horse to save the day.
40:48
Speaker 1: I was quiet, I was an ally. I was part
40:50
Speaker 1: of the community. I was helping and listening, And about
40:52
Speaker 1: eight months in I realized, you know what, no one's
40:54
Speaker 1: doing anything about the Mike Brown case, and I can
40:56
Speaker 1: take that lane and and people won't feel like I'm
41:00
Speaker 1: taking up space or competing with something else, basically, So
41:03
Speaker 1: I put together this proposal for the family, and I
41:07
Speaker 1: pitched it to Leslie and she signed on. In May
41:10
Speaker 1: of twenty fifteen, she gave me the rights to produce
41:13
Speaker 1: the movie seem VeryE Was it hard for you to
41:17
Speaker 1: accept Jason Leslie at first when he came to you,
41:19
Speaker 1: because I'm sure it's hard to trust people, especially you
41:22
Speaker 1: had a lot of people coming at you with different things.
41:23
Speaker 1: Who was this colonizer? Yeah, hell yeah, I get it. Um,
41:28
Speaker 1: you know, Jason was one of the only persons to
41:32
Speaker 1: actually come to me with paperwork in a full layout
41:36
Speaker 1: of what he wanted to do and how he wanted
41:37
Speaker 1: to help. There's a lot of people out here who
41:39
Speaker 1: have done things and they do not have my permission.
41:43
Speaker 1: They didn't and they don't. So I appreciate Jason for
41:46
Speaker 1: what he was doing. I was meeting Beyonce, Um, it
41:52
Speaker 1: was wonderful. I couldn't take it all in at the
41:55
Speaker 1: moment because I was still very vulnerable and kind of
41:57
Speaker 1: broken all over the place. But um, she's a great person.
42:01
Speaker 1: She comes to you just like a sister, like you've
42:04
Speaker 1: been knowing her for a long time. And so was
42:07
Speaker 1: jay Z swissby Celicia Keys and all the other people
42:10
Speaker 1: who have come to show me some love and share
42:13
Speaker 1: some light and let me know that I can do this,
42:15
Speaker 1: and you know they're there to support me. We look
42:19
Speaker 1: forward to supporting you know, anything you need when when
42:21
Speaker 1: it's time to run, you come back up in absolutely
42:24
Speaker 1: help you as much. We got to get Stranger Fruit
42:25
Speaker 1: to number one on iTunes for Mike Brown. I donated.
42:30
Speaker 1: I donated most of the profits to the family already,
42:33
Speaker 1: so if the film goes super viral, it will help
42:36
Speaker 1: the family and bring justice to Michael Brown. That is
42:38
Speaker 1: the vehicle of Stranger Fruit. But more people, as many
42:40
Speaker 1: people as possible to see it. Ye want to watch.
42:42
Speaker 1: I ain't get so mad when I watch them first.
42:47
Speaker 1: It's the whole thing is bad. But we need to
42:50
Speaker 1: know what happened because it need to know because it's
42:52
Speaker 1: not isolated incidents no more. You know, you see Stephan Clark,
42:55
Speaker 1: it's always something, always the same model too. This film
42:58
Speaker 1: shows you the whole model of how they do it,
43:01
Speaker 1: and it's the same thing every single time. Oh, I
43:04
Speaker 1: do want to ask you, Jason, like, how can more
43:06
Speaker 1: white people use their privilege to combat prejudice? Yeah, don't
43:10
Speaker 1: just say, oh, I know white privileges. Oh oh, I'm
43:13
Speaker 1: so woke. You're not woke. You're woke if you go
43:16
Speaker 1: out and you work hard in the community with your
43:19
Speaker 1: hands and your brain and your mind, and you shut
43:22
Speaker 1: up and you listen and you assist the people that
43:25
Speaker 1: know what they're doing, and you're not woke just because
43:27
Speaker 1: you know what the word white privilege is. You have
43:29
Speaker 1: to use your white privilege to break down white supremacy
43:33
Speaker 1: in an aggressive way. And I'm trying to do that
43:36
Speaker 1: every second of the day right now. And I'm trying
43:37
Speaker 1: to lead by example because you know what, I'm like,
43:39
Speaker 1: point oh oh oh, one percent of the society right now.
43:43
Speaker 1: And that's why I'm so upset about what Kanye West
43:45
Speaker 1: is doing. Because Kanye West is allowing little white teenagers
43:49
Speaker 1: who don't know who are calling each other the N
43:52
Speaker 1: word in high school, to think that's okay because Kanye
43:55
Speaker 1: likes Donald Trump. And we're out here trying to say, no,
43:58
Speaker 1: that's not right. And I see Michael Brown, and just
44:00
Speaker 1: from Michael Rown directly connected to the ignorance that's happening
44:02
Speaker 1: right now because all those little white kids with their
44:05
Speaker 1: yeazy's on. They think that Michael robbed the store and
44:07
Speaker 1: he charged Darren right now, and they're running around saying that,
44:10
Speaker 1: So we have a lot of work to do. White
44:13
Speaker 1: people need to wake up. I think the biggest problem
44:15
Speaker 1: in this country is not Republican racism. It's democratic racism.
44:19
Speaker 1: It's a white progressive racism that's hurting us the most.
44:23
Speaker 1: I respect Republicans being like I'm racist. I have a
44:27
Speaker 1: problem with Democrats looking at me in the eye and
44:29
Speaker 1: saying I'm not racist, and then going and living their
44:31
Speaker 1: lives in an incredibly racist way. And if we don't
44:34
Speaker 1: fix that, Donald Trump is gonna win again in twenty twenty.
44:37
Speaker 1: That's the conundrum because some people are looking at what
44:39
Speaker 1: conservatives are doing and they're like, well, at least they're
44:41
Speaker 1: being honest. But that doesn't mean you should go side
44:43
Speaker 1: with them. That's right what I'm saying, you shouldn't go
44:46
Speaker 1: sid Could there be any racist, No, But I respect honesty.
44:50
Speaker 1: I wish the Democrats were more honest. If Democrats were
44:53
Speaker 1: more honest and said, you know what, we have a
44:55
Speaker 1: racism problem black community. We're sorry about that. We have
44:59
Speaker 1: a racism we want to figure this out. That's honesty.
45:02
Speaker 1: We could build with that. That's not happening right now.
45:05
Speaker 1: We got the DNC running around like they think they
45:07
Speaker 1: know what they're doing. They have no idea what they're doing.
45:10
Speaker 1: Like I don't consider myself a Democrat after two thousands,
45:12
Speaker 1: many of them. But I'll tell you I'm gonna. I'm gonna.
45:15
Speaker 1: I'll vote for a piece of grass over Donald Trump
45:17
Speaker 1: right now. And we need to make sure that that happens.
45:20
Speaker 1: So anyone saying, listen, listen, listen, this guy is so
45:27
Speaker 1: dangerous to our culture. I work with a lot of
45:30
Speaker 1: undocumented students. He announced no DACA on Easter and all
45:35
Speaker 1: of my Hispanic students were crying in church. And then
45:39
Speaker 1: Kanye West, where's the Trump had? So don't tell me
45:42
Speaker 1: that like we're okay right now, because when you look
45:44
Speaker 1: at the pain that he is inflicting in the human
45:47
Speaker 1: way on our society, No, no, there's no accepting that.
45:51
Speaker 1: And I would I would vote for a cloud over
45:53
Speaker 1: Donald Trump right now. And Leslie, and part of what
45:56
Speaker 1: you're doing will be the solution. Running for city council
45:58
Speaker 1: and being a representative for people that have gone through
46:01
Speaker 1: maybe things you've gone through or have family members that
46:04
Speaker 1: have or friends that have because we need that type
46:06
Speaker 1: of representation, somebody who really cares about their own community
46:10
Speaker 1: that wants to make changes. There'll be me. We appeciate
46:13
Speaker 1: you guys were joining us. You've got out supports. When
46:15
Speaker 1: the running happened, you call you, call you, come by.

46:26
Speaker 1: We're running the movement from them, And uh, it's always
46:30
Speaker 1: interesting to hear stuff like that because I alway think
46:32
Speaker 1: about that monet King Junior Code and injustice anywhere as
46:34
Speaker 1: the threat of justice everywhere. I don't but I don't
46:37
Speaker 1: feel I don't feel like people really embrace that, at
46:40
Speaker 1: least white American correct, correct, they don't feel it. But
46:42
Speaker 1: you know what, A cops could kill me too and
46:44
Speaker 1: get away with it. Cops don't kill white people, but
46:47
Speaker 1: they could. The laws are the same. Until white people
46:49
Speaker 1: feel freended by it, they're not gonna wake up. They
46:51
Speaker 1: don't even realize what cops are doing in the black
46:53
Speaker 1: community right now. So we need to understand, like, you
46:56
Speaker 1: know why, if you're white, they could kill you too.
46:58
Speaker 1: Guess what. We live in a police state right now.
47:00
Speaker 1: Don't be so far removed that you feel like it
47:01
Speaker 1: doesn't affect you. And that's right, that's right. And don't wait,
47:05
Speaker 1: don't wait until it knocks on your door. Absolutely lay

Speaker 1: thank you guys for joining us. We appreciate you, Thank you.
47:29
Speaker 1: It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club Morning.
47:35
Speaker 1: Everybody's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are
47:39
Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumas. Let's talk
47:41
Speaker 1: Cardi By. This is the rumor report with Angela Yee
47:49
Speaker 1: on the Breakfast Club. Well, Cardi Bi's former manager is
47:54
Speaker 1: suing her. That's shaft and that's because he says that
48:00
Speaker 1: basically he got shafted. He says that his contacts and
48:02
Speaker 1: personal team of writers are and producers are responsible for
48:06
Speaker 1: a Bodak Yellow and that's how she got that hit
48:08
Speaker 1: song that allowed her to get her major record deal
48:11
Speaker 1: and her publishing deal that's worth millions of dollars. Annie
48:15
Speaker 1: also says that she's been defaming him by telling her
48:18
Speaker 1: fiance Offset and others that he robbed her blind. He said,
48:21
Speaker 1: Offset send him a text message in December that said,
48:24
Speaker 1: you better stop playing, acting like you don't know you'd
48:26
Speaker 1: taken her issue from her. You a snake. You can't
48:29
Speaker 1: hide from me, and you're not about to play my wife.
48:32
Speaker 1: Alsotle dog got shaft man, all kinds of jamas. So
48:35
Speaker 1: he's suing her now for ten million dollars now. In response,
48:39
Speaker 1: she's saying that she had every right to drop him
48:41
Speaker 1: because he was taking all kinds of cash from her
48:44
Speaker 1: behind her back, and she first confronted him on Super
48:46
Speaker 1: Bowl weekend, and she said that he would basically cook
48:49
Speaker 1: the books to make it look like she was getting
48:51
Speaker 1: less money than she was actually making, and then he
48:53
Speaker 1: would keep the difference. So, for instance, if she got
48:55
Speaker 1: paid one hundred thousand dollars, he would tell her she
48:57
Speaker 1: was making fifty thousand and then take the balance. In addition,
49:01
Speaker 1: he got twenty percent of her manager's fee, which is
49:03
Speaker 1: way more than is what than what's normal? I mean,
49:06
Speaker 1: I hate to see that happen between all people. You know,
49:08
Speaker 1: people call up together, ye and didn't things change right? Clearly?
49:13
Speaker 1: So I mean, I guess we'll see how this whole
49:15
Speaker 1: thing plays out. I'm not sure what their contract with
49:17
Speaker 1: each other is like or what the legalities of the
49:19
Speaker 1: situation is, but it is a sad situation because he
49:22
Speaker 1: has been with her for so long and then for
49:24
Speaker 1: her a trust situation is difficult to have to deal with. Well,
49:27
Speaker 1: I want to sleuth chaft for all the time that
49:29
Speaker 1: we book Cardy be and he gave us reasonable numbers. Okay,
49:32
Speaker 1: let's see our parties and Charlotte and whatnot. All right,
49:36
Speaker 1: it wasn't. Cardy did two of them for us, but
49:37
Speaker 1: we didn't book her. She wasn't what she promoted on
49:40
Speaker 1: Oh she did, Okay, she did? Oh no, I was
49:44
Speaker 1: playing alright, alright, alright, John Legend versus Kanye West. Now,
49:51
Speaker 1: Kanye West ran ahead and posted some text messages between
49:54
Speaker 1: himself and John Legend, and we discussed how John Legend
49:58
Speaker 1: was just tweeting and seemed like he was about Kanye
50:01
Speaker 1: and his tweets. Well, he went ahead and hit up
50:04
Speaker 1: Kanye and said, Hey, it's John Legend. I hope you'll
50:07
Speaker 1: reconsider aligning yourself with Trump. You're way too powerful and
50:10
Speaker 1: influential to endorse who he is and what he stands for.
50:13
Speaker 1: As you know, what you say really means something to
50:15
Speaker 1: your fans. They are loyal to you and respect your opinion.
50:17
Speaker 1: So many people who love you feel so betrayed right
50:20
Speaker 1: now because they know the harm that Trump's policies caused,
50:23
Speaker 1: especially to people of color. Don't let this be part
50:25
Speaker 1: of your legacy. You're the greatest artist of our generation.
50:27
Speaker 1: John Legend is absolutely right, and Kanye responded, I love you, John,
50:30
Speaker 1: and I appreciate your thoughts. You bringing up my fans
50:33
Speaker 1: and my legacy as a tactic based on fair used
50:35
Speaker 1: to manipulate my free thought. John ja to reply back
50:38
Speaker 1: whether you read the text that I sent you, though,
50:40
Speaker 1: and Kanye said, I twitted the John text to show
50:43
Speaker 1: that there are people around me that disagree with me
50:45
Speaker 1: and voice their opinion. I respect everyone's opinion, but I
50:48
Speaker 1: stand my ground. If you feel something, don't let pair pressure,
50:50
Speaker 1: manipulate you, and you know he responded and well, John
50:56
Speaker 1: Legend basically said, since you're posting text messages, let me
50:59
Speaker 1: add that I have a new single out and there
51:01
Speaker 1: you have it. Do you think that Kanye is just
51:03
Speaker 1: rebelling for the sake of rebelling, Like he's the type
51:05
Speaker 1: of person. He's the type of person if you tell
51:07
Speaker 1: him not to do something, he goes haser at it.
51:09
Speaker 1: It's almost like his superpower is his weakness. All right, Well,
51:12
Speaker 1: John Legend, actually I saw him yesterday. He did lip
51:15
Speaker 1: service in that podcast is coming out today, and since
51:18
Speaker 1: it was happening right then, I spoke to him about it.
51:21
Speaker 1: And here's what he has to say about Kanye and
51:23
Speaker 1: his impact. Yeah, and it's not it wasn't about like
51:26
Speaker 1: trying to make him feel bad. I just wanted him
51:28
Speaker 1: to think about what he's saying and what it means
51:30
Speaker 1: to people and like words you. I mean, he's talking
51:33
Speaker 1: about free thought and free thinking a lot. That's fine
51:36
Speaker 1: for him to think whatever he wants to think. But
51:37
Speaker 1: every time he makes an utterance and he publishes it,
51:40
Speaker 1: it has impact. And politicians, when they do things, it
51:44
Speaker 1: has impact. And when you align yourself with them. That
51:47
Speaker 1: doesn't mean you're endorsing every single thing they stand for,
51:50
Speaker 1: but you're endorsing their agenda essentially, all right. He also
51:55
Speaker 1: talks more about Kanye just basically having to realize an
51:58
Speaker 1: impact on the average person. Sometimes we have the luxury
52:02
Speaker 1: to be insulated from that from the consequences of what
52:05
Speaker 1: politicians do. When politicians do bad things that affect a
52:08
Speaker 1: lot of ordinary people, they don't affect us. Well, they
52:16
Speaker 1: don't affect us in the same way. We don't feel
52:18
Speaker 1: that pain, and so we have more luxury to just
52:21
Speaker 1: kind of align ourselves with whoever. But other people they
52:25
Speaker 1: feel the consequences of that. And it's not a game.
52:29
Speaker 1: And let's just skip to the last one on whether
52:31
Speaker 1: or not he thinks the whole thing with Kanye is
52:32
Speaker 1: a gimmick. He's always also sold himself as authentic to everybody,
52:36
Speaker 1: and like that when he said things that you might
52:39
Speaker 1: have disagreed with, you always believed he was saying it
52:41
Speaker 1: because he really felt it, right, And if this is
52:44
Speaker 1: a gimmick, which based on this text, I don't know
52:46
Speaker 1: if it is a gimmick, Like he seems like like
52:49
Speaker 1: he just feels this way right now. But if it
52:51
Speaker 1: is a gimmick. It's not good for him because, like
52:54
Speaker 1: part of what he's always said to us, he was
52:56
Speaker 1: being real. If he really believes this, and I just
52:58
Speaker 1: hope he'll think about it and more consider but if
53:01
Speaker 1: he doesn't believe it, then it's not a good luck.
53:03
Speaker 1: John is absolutely right. But I don't think it's a
53:05
Speaker 1: gimmick because why would Kanye need a gimmick to sell record?
53:08
Speaker 1: Doesn't he doesn't think it's a gimmick. Yeah, I don't.
53:10
Speaker 1: I don't. I see people saying that though, like this
53:12
Speaker 1: is just a giving Preya to sell record gick. You
53:15
Speaker 1: gotta ask, you gotta ask the question. So he doesn't
53:18
Speaker 1: think it's a gimmick. He thinks he really believes it. Yea.
53:20
Speaker 1: And he was saying he would have voted for Trump
53:22
Speaker 1: since late twenty sixteen, right before he had his uh
53:25
Speaker 1: just mental breakdown. Whatever. All right, well let me an
53:29
Speaker 1: you a yeah, and that is your room of report,
53:30
Speaker 1: And I'm gonna do a Kanye mix this morning at
53:33
Speaker 1: nine am, a pre Sunken Place Kanye mix. Why don't
53:36
Speaker 1: you wait until the interview drop? We can. He still
53:39
Speaker 1: wants to do it. What interview? Nothing? But when's your
53:42
Speaker 1: interview job. I don't know you just said, why don't
53:44
Speaker 1: you wait when you tell me what day to wait?
53:45
Speaker 1: I sunk place, Leave me alone. I don't hear anything
53:47
Speaker 1: ever here right we are giving that donkey too sunken place, Charlemagne.
53:52
Speaker 1: He can't hear you a second place. Why you got
53:54
Speaker 1: your mouth bow, when you got your mautbowpen your eyes closed?
53:58
Speaker 1: Now you can hear me Donkey today it is going
54:04
Speaker 1: to a young man named Tony to Tuny, I think
54:08
Speaker 1: it is that how you pronounce his name. Listen. I've
54:10
Speaker 1: heard some some very frivolous lawsuits in my day, but
54:12
Speaker 1: this one, uh, this one takes the cake. He needs
54:14
Speaker 1: to come to the front of congregation. We'd like to
54:16
Speaker 1: have a world with him. All right, we'll get into
54:17
Speaker 1: that when we come back. Keep a lock this to
54:19
Speaker 1: breakfast club. Come on in this. Don't be a dusty
54:21
Speaker 1: because right now you want some real It's time for
54:26
Speaker 1: Donkey of the day. So if we ever threw, I
54:28
Speaker 1: need to be a donkey man, keep it with the hero.
54:31
Speaker 1: Did she getting the name? Please? I had become Donkey
54:35
Speaker 1: of the day the breakfast club bitches. Yes, Donke here
54:40
Speaker 1: today for Friday. Aprol twenty seven goes to Tony to Tony.
54:44
Speaker 1: Did I pronounce that right? Tony? No, Tony to TUNI
54:47
Speaker 1: there you go, Tony to Tuny. Now. According to t
54:50
Speaker 1: m Z, Tony is someone who proclaims himself Instagram famous.
54:53
Speaker 1: I never heard of him, have y'all? No, he has
54:56
Speaker 1: one point five million follow us on INSTAGRAMM Now, I
55:02
Speaker 1: don't know what that translates to translates two in terms
55:04
Speaker 1: of dollars. But Tony clearly has money for frivolous lawsuits
55:09
Speaker 1: because Tony has a dog named Helf. When I say dog,
55:12
Speaker 1: I don't need a homeboy, I mean an actual domesticated,
55:15
Speaker 1: carnivorous mammal. Okay, a dog all right, with four legs
55:18
Speaker 1: and a cut sinse to smell in a barking, howling
55:20
Speaker 1: or whining voice. Okay, man's best friend. You know what
55:22
Speaker 1: I'm talking about? Right? A dog? Quick, daddy dog joke
55:25
Speaker 1: for the room? What kind of dog is Dracula? Half?
55:28
Speaker 1: Anybody want to yes? I have no idea. I don't
55:32
Speaker 1: know you got blood anyway? Now. Heth was doing a
55:38
Speaker 1: photo shoot with a bikini model named Diana Munira. Let
55:42
Speaker 1: the record show from what I can see, Diana is
55:44
Speaker 1: a very attractive young lady with a banging body. Now
55:47
Speaker 1: she is five six. This is very important to note
55:49
Speaker 1: because hef the dog when he stands up on two legs,
55:52
Speaker 1: is five feet tall. The reason height is a factor
55:54
Speaker 1: in this story is because Tony is suing Diana. Now.
55:58
Speaker 1: The reason he's suing Dianna is because Tony says Deanna
56:02
Speaker 1: sexually assaulted his dog. Half. You heard me right, Tony
56:06
Speaker 1: isssuing Diana because he claims Dianna sexually assaulted his dog.
56:10
Speaker 1: Before we continue, let me break up just disturbing news
56:13
Speaker 1: with another quick daddy dog joke for the room. What
56:15
Speaker 1: breed of dog loves to take a bath? Anybody want
56:19
Speaker 1: to guess a bath dog? No, I don't know a shampoodle.
56:24
Speaker 1: Shut up, dad now. According to the lawsuit that's available
56:29
Speaker 1: to see on TMZ, Tony filed a lawsuit against Dianna,
56:33
Speaker 1: and Tony says Deanna began sensually playing with health with Helf,
56:37
Speaker 1: arousing half by playing with his genitals. Masturbating my dog's disgusting.
56:42
Speaker 1: Let's keep in mind, Helf is a dog. Okay. Word
56:45
Speaker 1: on the street is that he keeps the best time too,
56:49
Speaker 1: So you know what that makes helf what a watch dog.
56:55
Speaker 1: That was kind of funny. I like that. That was funny. Now,
56:57
Speaker 1: if you watched the video, half the dog is told
57:00
Speaker 1: you with it. Okay. He even mounts her and thrust
57:02
Speaker 1: her and even appears to place his front legs on
57:05
Speaker 1: Diana's ass. Now, the problem is Tony told Diana and
57:07
Speaker 1: the photographer he did not want the footage on the internet,
57:10
Speaker 1: and they agreed, but the video and photos showed up
57:13
Speaker 1: on Instagram a couple of days later. This is crazy
57:15
Speaker 1: to see because she's five six, like I told y'all,
57:18
Speaker 1: and the dog when it stands upon his legs, is
57:20
Speaker 1: five feet tall, so they damned the eye to eye.
57:22
Speaker 1: And this story is really making me ask the question,
57:26
Speaker 1: what kind of dog can jump as high as a
57:28
Speaker 1: tall building? Oh? My god, any kind because buildings can't jump.
57:34
Speaker 1: Shut up, dad, Now. Tony also reposted the video, which
57:39
Speaker 1: makes no sense because you're suing someone for posting a
57:41
Speaker 1: video you don't want out there, and the caption he
57:44
Speaker 1: posted is I can't believe this thirsty girl used my
57:47
Speaker 1: dog to gain followers. Tony is suing Diana for fraud
57:50
Speaker 1: and infliction of emotional distress, and he's suing her for
57:53
Speaker 1: over one point five million dollars in damages. He wants
57:56
Speaker 1: the money to match his followers. Clearly, we just need
57:59
Speaker 1: to throw American rice. Okay, America just has too much
58:02
Speaker 1: privilege and too much freedom. Who has the time, the money,
58:06
Speaker 1: the energy to sue a woman for sexually harassing their dog?
58:09
Speaker 1: And what happens when helf the dog has to take
58:12
Speaker 1: the stand in a court of law? Huh will hef
58:16
Speaker 1: swear to tell the whole wolf and nothing but the wolf? Huh?
58:22
Speaker 1: Some don't you to days just sell themselves? Please give
58:25
Speaker 1: Tony too, Teeny the biggest hea hall. Oh, no matter
58:27
Speaker 1: if I give him some sweet sounds in the hamletones.
58:30
Speaker 1: Oh no, you are the dogge the dad dog gee?
58:41
Speaker 1: Oh the day ye to dad? Get one more off.
58:48
Speaker 1: Let me get a woman now this is his only
58:49
Speaker 1: gonna take a few seconds. Okay. A father and his
58:51
Speaker 1: six year old son of walking down the street and
58:53
Speaker 1: they come across two dogs having sex. A right. The
58:55
Speaker 1: boy is shocked by what he sees, and he asked
58:58
Speaker 1: his father daddy when he The father, not wanting to
59:01
Speaker 1: lie to his son, says, they're just making a puppy. Okay,
59:04
Speaker 1: says the son. The father is relieved that he doesn't
59:06
Speaker 1: prove further. The next day, the son burst into his
59:09
Speaker 1: parents room and sees them having sex. The father jumps
59:12
Speaker 1: up and quickly covers himself. No, he's in for an
59:14
Speaker 1: interesting talk. He walks downstairs with his little boy, and
59:17
Speaker 1: as they sit at the dinner room table, his son
59:19
Speaker 1: asked him, Danny, what were you and mommy doing? Again.
59:23
Speaker 1: Wanting to be honest with his son, Daddy says, me
59:25

Speaker 1: that famous. How do you pronounce your name? Bell? Well,
1:00:41
Speaker 1: thank you, Emmy, thank you very much. That was big
1:00:47
Speaker 1: because it was one of those it wasn't like televised.
1:00:49
Speaker 1: But then I saw you like the tele it was
1:00:51
Speaker 1: like it was on Fax, so you know, it's like
1:00:53
Speaker 1: that's kind of television, but it's not the prime time.
1:00:55
Speaker 1: It's not the prime time Emmy's with the real famous people,
1:00:58
Speaker 1: like you know, I saw you. I saw that. I
1:01:00
Speaker 1: was like, oh that's dope. Yeah, now it was I
1:01:02
Speaker 1: never expected to win an Emmy, so you know, I'm
1:01:04
Speaker 1: ready to quit. It was good. Yeah, yeah, no, yeah,
1:01:07
Speaker 1: it was big. I didn't I had never thought in
1:01:08
Speaker 1: my career the weird path my career is taken. I
1:01:10
Speaker 1: didn't think it ended up with me accepting an Emmy
1:01:12
Speaker 1: award from LLL cool J. That's not something I put
1:01:14
Speaker 1: my dream journal first one. It's my first one. Yeah,
1:01:18
Speaker 1: you know, one is fine, but I'll take more off
1:01:20
Speaker 1: the hand him to me. It's very interesting because the
1:01:22
Speaker 1: show you nined, Shades of America. Is not a comedy
1:01:24
Speaker 1: show at all. I mean, it's humor in it when
1:01:26
Speaker 1: you're watching. Some people say, I'm not a comedian at all,
1:01:29
Speaker 1: so that's how it goes. But yeah, I'm just you know,
1:01:30
Speaker 1: it's it's I like things that educate you are interesting
1:01:34
Speaker 1: or compelling and funny at the same time. I think
1:01:35
Speaker 1: the reason why people like it is because it's on
1:01:37
Speaker 1: a CNN, as a journalist, is a news network, but
1:01:40
Speaker 1: it's you're getting You're getting information without the same tone
1:01:43
Speaker 1: that news bring. I find it interesting that you hit
1:01:45
Speaker 1: your Starbucks cup before you walked in here this morning.
1:01:47
Speaker 1: I didn't have a Star Wars cup. Look at this,
1:01:50
Speaker 1: I'm ringing red bull. I can't go to Starbucks. My
1:01:53
Speaker 1: three old calls it the bad place. She's like she
1:01:59
Speaker 1: her So, my my wife was white, my three yearlds mixed,
1:02:02
Speaker 1: and her grandmother, who my wife's mom, got super mad
1:02:05
Speaker 1: at her for calling it the bad place. Really. Yeah,
1:02:07
Speaker 1: we had a discussion at the dinner table with my
1:02:10
Speaker 1: white mother in law, my mixed kid, my black mom,
1:02:12
Speaker 1: me and my wife about Starbucks being the bad place.
1:02:14
Speaker 1: How does she know? What did she see? She's she's smart.
1:02:17
Speaker 1: We talk about this stuff. All the time in our house,
1:02:19
Speaker 1: so it's not we don't realize how much we're talking
1:02:20
Speaker 1: about it, but she just picked up on it. So
1:02:22
Speaker 1: we passed the Starbucks. She goes, that's the bad place
1:02:26
Speaker 1: for her. No, yeah, no more coffee for her. Yes.
1:02:28
Speaker 1: How does she deal with, you know, dad being black,
1:02:30
Speaker 1: a mom being white and seeing the I guess injustice
1:02:34
Speaker 1: of her dad being black? Yeah? Black, Yeah, I got fro. Yeah,
1:02:41
Speaker 1: I'm talking. I'm two sixty, I'm real. Yeah. If I
1:02:44
Speaker 1: get killed, I'm a gentle giant. And he was a
1:02:49
Speaker 1: gentle giant. Yeah. I know how it works well because
1:02:53
Speaker 1: I have a seven year old too, and she's the
1:02:55
Speaker 1: one who understands that. Like we you know, we talked
1:02:57
Speaker 1: about the things that you know, I bought a book
1:02:59
Speaker 1: because you know, it's great books out there for kids.
1:03:00
Speaker 1: So I about a book about Hary Tubman and read
1:03:02
Speaker 1: it to her and we talk and it says black
1:03:04
Speaker 1: people used to be slaves. They could be sold like
1:03:05
Speaker 1: sacks of potatoes, and so she they understand that that happened,
1:03:09
Speaker 1: and at the end of the day, they go, that
1:03:10
Speaker 1: doesn't make sense, which is the same thing we all
1:03:12
Speaker 1: feel about that stuff. It doesn't make sense. Yeah, it's
1:03:14
Speaker 1: the weirdest thing in the world. Because my daughter is
1:03:16
Speaker 1: nine and she has so many questions now, and it's like,
1:03:19
Speaker 1: you really can't explain racist, No, you can't. Just want
1:03:21
Speaker 1: to see that experience, like you can't explain. I don't
1:03:23
Speaker 1: want her to experience it, and as you will. Yeah, yeah,
1:03:26
Speaker 1: because you know. And and plus my daughter, my seven
1:03:28
Speaker 1: year old is clearly mixed, my three and a half
1:03:31
Speaker 1: year old. For white people, who's gonna pass. She's gonna
1:03:34
Speaker 1: be able to get the state secrets. So it's like
1:03:35
Speaker 1: they're gonna be living separate lives. And I have a
1:03:37
Speaker 1: third daughter on the way, so we'll see what happens there. Yeah.
1:03:39
Speaker 1: Thank you. Didn't you get kicked out of a coffee
1:03:41
Speaker 1: shop yourself before? Thanks for bringing that up. Yes I did. Yeah, No,
1:03:43
Speaker 1: I got it in Berkeley, California. I got kicked out
1:03:45
Speaker 1: of the books. No no, no, no, no. It was
1:03:47
Speaker 1: the independent kicking out of a coffee shop. It was
1:03:49
Speaker 1: you were trying to sell something to your wife. Yeah,
1:03:51
Speaker 1: they thought, I mean, the story is so ridiculous, Like
1:03:54
Speaker 1: it doesn't if it was a scream play, you'd be
1:03:55
Speaker 1: like that guy just came in and yeah, I started
1:03:58
Speaker 1: talking to this white lady and this baby that looked
1:04:00
Speaker 1: like him. Yeah yeah, so, uh, it was the story
1:04:03
Speaker 1: from the screenplay. You'd pull something out because it doesn't
1:04:05
Speaker 1: make sense. So it was my birthday. We had eaten
1:04:08
Speaker 1: at that coffee shop earlier that day. I went back
1:04:10
Speaker 1: to meet my wife with our baby and her all
1:04:12
Speaker 1: her friends who were white women with babies because it
1:04:15
Speaker 1: was a mom's group. And I went and I had
1:04:18
Speaker 1: bought at the bookstore right next to this place called
1:04:19
Speaker 1: the Alma Cafe. I bought a book about the Loving
1:04:22
Speaker 1: Couple who was the couple who struck down the interracial
1:04:24
Speaker 1: marriage law. It's a children's book. So I buy this
1:04:26
Speaker 1: book about interracial marriage is legal, and it's good and
1:04:29
Speaker 1: it's okay. I go to the coffee shop show it
1:04:31
Speaker 1: to one of my wife's friends, and somebody knocks in
1:04:32
Speaker 1: the window and says, get out of here. Yeah. Yeah,
1:04:35
Speaker 1: Like it was nineteen fifties Alabama. Yeah yeah. And so
1:04:39
Speaker 1: admittedly I was wearing a hoodie Charlottage, so you know,
1:04:42
Speaker 1: it's kind of on me. It's kind of on me.
1:04:44
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. It was an old glandish hoodie, so it's
1:04:47
Speaker 1: an expensive hoodie, but it was a hoodie walk. Did
1:04:49
Speaker 1: you leave? I mean we left, but in like not
1:04:51
Speaker 1: in like a running way, like in a you know,
1:04:53
Speaker 1: this is racist for you. This is both My wife,
1:04:55
Speaker 1: to her credit, we were getting in the car with
1:04:57
Speaker 1: the baby. She's like, now I got to go back.
1:04:58
Speaker 1: And she went back and read the woman for filth
1:05:00
Speaker 1: on the sidewalk the way the way my mom would
1:05:02
Speaker 1: have liked her tite privilege. Yeah, yeah, she used her
1:05:05
Speaker 1: white skin privilege. I mean that's I think that's why
1:05:07
Speaker 1: the cops weren't called, because my white wife was like,
1:05:09
Speaker 1: I'm with this negro. I represent him, you know, so
1:05:12
Speaker 1: you know so. And then I'm not saying everybody should
1:05:14
Speaker 1: marry a white woman. I know that's not a popular
1:05:16
Speaker 1: thing to say, but I am saying that in my case,
1:05:18
Speaker 1: she was able to stand up right there and and
1:05:21
Speaker 1: and I sort of like make people back down. Does
1:05:23
Speaker 1: that happen a lot? Which one she stands up for me?
1:05:27
Speaker 1: I take her everywhere everywhere? Well, no, she uses my
1:05:32
Speaker 1: male privilege, I use her white privilege. We'd go back
1:05:34
Speaker 1: and forth trading privilege too. Odds still to this day,
1:05:37
Speaker 1: like you know, because we see in racial couples, But
1:05:39
Speaker 1: I guess it's still ball those people. I mean, you know,
1:05:41
Speaker 1: we we have sort of blocked it out, but yeah,
1:05:43
Speaker 1: there are times when things will happen and my wife
1:05:45
Speaker 1: would be like, is that kay? Yeah, you know, like
1:05:46
Speaker 1: it just it because we're in the Bear. But as
1:05:48
Speaker 1: we learned in Berkeley, racism all over this country. You know,
1:05:51
Speaker 1: it probably happens more in the Bear, and then it
1:05:53
Speaker 1: doesn't like Alabama because in Alabama they're really used to
1:05:55
Speaker 1: us mixing it up down there, you know. So yeah,
1:05:57
Speaker 1: now I see why you drink a red bull. Yes, right,
1:05:59
Speaker 1: you hate coffee? Coffee. Coffee hasn't been good to me
1:06:03
Speaker 1: in the last five years, so three years. Yeah, yeah.
1:06:06
Speaker 1: Now do you get flat from your own people from
1:06:08
Speaker 1: reaching across enemy lines? Don't even let me. Do you
1:06:12
Speaker 1: get flat from own people? Yes? I do. Charlotte Maine,
1:06:14
Speaker 1: thanks for asking. What is the two part questions? Yeah? Okay, good,
1:06:19
Speaker 1: I get I mean, you know, I did this episode
1:06:21
Speaker 1: of the Ku Klux Klan. Black people were like even
1:06:23
Speaker 1: you tweeted like what does this negro do? And you know, like,
1:06:25
Speaker 1: because why are you talking to the clan? We already
1:06:27
Speaker 1: know the clan exists. I get flat from people when
1:06:30
Speaker 1: I talk to Richard Spencer the first episode of last season.
1:06:32
Speaker 1: Why is he talking to this guy? Why is he
1:06:33
Speaker 1: punching him in the face. So, but then I also
1:06:36
Speaker 1: get in the same twitter feed, I get people going
1:06:38
Speaker 1: on white people, I didn't know the clan existed, Oh
1:06:40
Speaker 1: my god, I can't believe who were sort of like
1:06:42
Speaker 1: waking up to the idea that kind of raised himself exists.
1:06:44
Speaker 1: I get. I get people going, oh my god, I
1:06:46
Speaker 1: know that who this Richard Spencer guy was. I can't
1:06:48
Speaker 1: believe that. So I do get flack. I accept the
1:06:51
Speaker 1: flat It's part of the job. But also I think
1:06:53
Speaker 1: that there are there are sometimes more people on the
1:06:55
Speaker 1: side going I didn't know this existed than the people
1:06:57
Speaker 1: who are like, why would you do this? But also
1:06:59
Speaker 1: that's why do episodes like Chicago. We didn't episode about
1:07:01
Speaker 1: gang violence in Chicago, which is the one we won
1:07:02
Speaker 1: the Ammy four U. This season, it's our black season
1:07:05
Speaker 1: ever because we have three black episodes out of eight,
1:07:07
Speaker 1: so it's the thirty sel. We have an episode about
1:07:10
Speaker 1: historically black colleges and universities. We have an episode about
1:07:13
Speaker 1: the Gulagchy of South Carolina. That's right, that's right. Uh
1:07:17
Speaker 1: So then uh and then we do one in Mobile, Alabama,
1:07:19
Speaker 1: where my dad is featured in the episode talking about
1:07:21
Speaker 1: living in the South. Let's talk about the HBCU. What
1:07:24
Speaker 1: is that episode about? And I mean, I'm gonna get
1:07:26
Speaker 1: a lot of flack over this one too, because I
1:07:27
Speaker 1: didn't feature all the HBCUs. I didn't go to all
1:07:29
Speaker 1: one hundred of them. I went to Moorehouse, I went
1:07:32
Speaker 1: to spellman Morris Brown in Atlanta and talked to a
1:07:35
Speaker 1: student from Howard And then we also did one we
1:07:39
Speaker 1: did h Lincoln University in Pennsylvani. No, No, we just
1:07:45
Speaker 1: don't have a budget. We don't have that anti boor
1:07:47
Speaker 1: Dane budget, so we have to sort of figure out
1:07:48
Speaker 1: how to do it. And we only get four or
1:07:50
Speaker 1: five days for each shoots, so we have to pack school.
1:07:52
Speaker 1: But we let you live. I see, That's what I'm saying.
1:07:53
Speaker 1: That's what anyway. Yeah, wrapping and trying to wrap it up. Yeah,
1:07:57
Speaker 1: thanks for coming by, coming by. What did you what
1:08:00
Speaker 1: did you discover? What did you see? Well? I did
1:08:02
Speaker 1: not go to an HBCU. I went to the same
1:08:04
Speaker 1: university that Trump graduated from, Univerited Pennsylvania. Yeah, Wow, that's different.
1:08:09
Speaker 1: I was one of those needs like a supported you like,
1:08:11
Speaker 1: well she didn't finish though, neither to die. So so
1:08:14
Speaker 1: we have that in common, and that's all we have
1:08:16
Speaker 1: in common. But the big thing is like people I
1:08:18
Speaker 1: always heard people go, why do we sell HBCUs? Why
1:08:20
Speaker 1: you know, why are they still relevant? And we talk
1:08:22
Speaker 1: a lot about the relevance of HBCUs And we also
1:08:24
Speaker 1: learned also are a lot that a lot of black
1:08:26
Speaker 1: people go to HBCUs go there because they went to
1:08:28
Speaker 1: predominantly white schools in high school and need to sort
1:08:30
Speaker 1: of reconnect with their blackness. That's why n might want
1:08:32
Speaker 1: to send his daughter to him. Yeah, that's what I
1:08:34
Speaker 1: want to say that I was gonna ask, would you
1:08:35
Speaker 1: send your daughter to HBCU. I mean, I'm gonna after
1:08:37
Speaker 1: going a Spellman, I'm gonna make sure they go visit
1:08:40
Speaker 1: Spellman because Spellman was the most impressive of all of them.
1:08:42
Speaker 1: Bellman feels like a black woman think Tank. It doesn't
1:08:44
Speaker 1: feel like a college. See, I know my black Twitter
1:08:48
Speaker 1: is gonna be like all over that night. I got it. Yeah,
1:08:51
Speaker 1: that's good. I think that's I think it's Doe. But
1:08:52
Speaker 1: I think you're right. I think a lot of students
1:08:54
Speaker 1: go to Catholic schools or private schools, high school because
1:08:57
Speaker 1: their parents want to take them out the hood, and
1:08:58
Speaker 1: then they kind of missed that. I want to go
1:09:00
Speaker 1: back there because I want my daughter to go to
1:09:01
Speaker 1: an HBC. Hopefully she does, because I think she misses that.
1:09:04
Speaker 1: Now she wants to go to Howard. Whatever HBC you wants,
1:09:07
Speaker 1: she wants to, Okay, But if you go to Howard,
1:09:09
Speaker 1: she gotta paid for herself. And I think that's what's
1:09:13
Speaker 1: important about the episode is that we a lot of
1:09:15
Speaker 1: the themes of the seasons that black is not a monolith.
1:09:17
Speaker 1: The point of going to HBCUs a lot of the
1:09:19
Speaker 1: black people go to the schools are saying, like I
1:09:20
Speaker 1: found so much diversity here. Black people are not all
1:09:23
Speaker 1: one thing. And so there's black people who are listening
1:09:25
Speaker 1: to hip hop, the black people listening to Rage against
1:09:27
Speaker 1: the Machine. There's black people do it all across the
1:09:29
Speaker 1: spectrum of blackness, and you can reconnect, you can find
1:09:32
Speaker 1: your people at HBC. If I had known that when
1:09:33
Speaker 1: I went to college, I probably would have applied to
1:09:35
Speaker 1: an HBCU all right, we have more with w Kamal
1:09:38
Speaker 1: Bell Comedian when we come back, don't move. It's to
1:09:40
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club the morning more than everybody is DJ Envy,
1:09:43
Speaker 1: Angela Yee, Charlemagne, the guy we all the Breakfast Club.
1:09:47
Speaker 1: We have w Kamal Bell in the building, Charlemagne. Do
1:09:50
Speaker 1: you think it's possible to be Kanye West support Trump
1:09:54
Speaker 1: and for us to be like Okay, yeah, I guess
1:09:57
Speaker 1: we're cool with that. And I mean, this is I
1:09:59
Speaker 1: feel way this is gonna put so much pressure on
1:10:01
Speaker 1: the album. The music has to be so good. But
1:10:04
Speaker 1: it's like, I feel like it's got to be like
1:10:06
Speaker 1: classic Kanye to the in degree for this to be Okay,
1:10:13
Speaker 1: love Trump, but I mean, but you're not the most
1:10:16
Speaker 1: banging fire song in the history of hip hop with
1:10:21
Speaker 1: like I mean Tupac's on, Oh where the Tupac Verse
1:10:23
Speaker 1: come from? Like, it just puts so much pressure on
1:10:26
Speaker 1: the music because now everyone because there's all this side eye. Now,
1:10:29
Speaker 1: you know, he's the greatest social experiment I think I've
1:10:31
Speaker 1: seen in a long time. You know, I'm not saying
1:10:33
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's a social experiment or not,
1:10:34
Speaker 1: but it feels like a social experiment. I mean, I
1:10:37
Speaker 1: think Kanye is a social experiment. I think he I
1:10:39
Speaker 1: think he, like you said, he lives his life that way.
1:10:41
Speaker 1: He's trying to provoke. But I think we live in
1:10:43
Speaker 1: dangerous times where I'm not saying like people can't be Republicans.
1:10:47
Speaker 1: My dad worked in the Republican administration of Alabama. I
1:10:49
Speaker 1: know black, We all know black Republicans. Like people shouldn't
1:10:52
Speaker 1: support racist bad Yeah, Trump is a racist. That's why
1:10:54
Speaker 1: I brought the shirt. Yes he's a racist, you know
1:10:56
Speaker 1: what I mean? So like he that supporting Trump is
1:10:59
Speaker 1: supporting legacy of racism and a current practice of racism.
1:11:03
Speaker 1: So you can say, I think there's all these Republicans
1:11:05
Speaker 1: like Tara set Mayer who's on CNN, is a reasonable
1:11:08
Speaker 1: black Republican. There's we can talk about financial stuff, we
1:11:10
Speaker 1: can talk about the military, but Trump's Trump's not a Republican. No, No.
1:11:14
Speaker 1: You think sometimes people get so removed from the average
1:11:19
Speaker 1: every day person problems that they just really are just connected.
1:11:23
Speaker 1: Once you marry Kardashian, you're so far away from the
1:11:26
Speaker 1: streets of Chicago. Even if you go visit the streets
1:11:28
Speaker 1: of Chicago as Kanye, you're surrounded by people. Right, He's
1:11:30
Speaker 1: not going there by himself, you know, he's not. So
1:11:33
Speaker 1: it's there's a challenge of being a rich black person
1:11:36
Speaker 1: that even if you came from the hood or you
1:11:37
Speaker 1: came from from from poverty, it's hard to reconnect once
1:11:41
Speaker 1: you once you become a rich black person. I think
1:11:43
Speaker 1: it's a and we see it time and time again
1:11:45
Speaker 1: that once black people we get rich, they start to
1:11:46
Speaker 1: get talk. Well, we lift ourselves. So I lifted myself
1:11:48
Speaker 1: up in my bootstraps. Why can't you do the same.
1:11:50
Speaker 1: So I think it's a real you know, and I
1:11:52
Speaker 1: think about that as I start. I'm not a rich
1:11:54
Speaker 1: black person, but I'm certainly a black person who is
1:11:56
Speaker 1: doing well. And so I'm always reminding myself and trying
1:11:59
Speaker 1: to connect with people to sorry, I don't go. I
1:12:00
Speaker 1: don't know why everybody doesn't have a house with a
1:12:02
Speaker 1: cul de sac, you know what I mean. Like it's
1:12:03
Speaker 1: like this is I'm benefiting from what I have, the
1:12:06
Speaker 1: work I've put in, but I still got to connect
1:12:07
Speaker 1: with the community and still got to connect with the
1:12:09
Speaker 1: activists who will call me out. That's why I don't
1:12:11
Speaker 1: mind getting called on Twitter, because who will call me out?
1:12:13
Speaker 1: When I got that was too much just to play
1:12:14
Speaker 1: white devil's advocate, you know, people would talk about that
1:12:18
Speaker 1: put them up by the bootstrap's mentality. I don't look
1:12:20
Speaker 1: at it, and then I look at it as an
1:12:21
Speaker 1: outcast and goody mob mentality. When they said you need
1:12:23
Speaker 1: to get up, get out and get something, don't let
1:12:25
Speaker 1: the days of your life pass by. You need to
1:12:26
Speaker 1: get up, get out and get something because you and
1:12:28
Speaker 1: I got to do for you, and I like you
1:12:30
Speaker 1: do have to put in the work regardless. You have
1:12:32
Speaker 1: to put in the work. But everybody who puts in
1:12:33
Speaker 1: the work doesn't get doesn't lift themselves up. Everybody doesn't
1:12:37
Speaker 1: have the same level of opportunities. There's lots of you
1:12:41
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. What I'm saying, but we can't
1:12:42
Speaker 1: we if somebody, if you lift yourself up by your bootstraps,
1:12:44
Speaker 1: and somebody else is putting in work and doesn't get
1:12:46
Speaker 1: lifted up, it may be because the system they were
1:12:49
Speaker 1: in at the time did not allow them to lift
1:12:50
Speaker 1: themselves up. I'm not saying everybody I worked hard. I'm
1:12:52
Speaker 1: not saying you got lucky. You gotta put the hard
1:12:54
Speaker 1: work in. But we can't act like just putting the
1:12:56
Speaker 1: hard work in is going to guarantee some level success.
1:12:59
Speaker 1: You the hard work that a black person puts in,
1:13:01
Speaker 1: and the hard work that a white person put in
1:13:03
Speaker 1: is not on hist you look at statistically, doesn't add
1:13:06
Speaker 1: up to the same level of success. Yeah, absolutely right.
1:13:08
Speaker 1: But success is subjective too, because I think that you know,
1:13:11
Speaker 1: we live in a country where success to us means
1:13:14
Speaker 1: super rich, super wealthy, celebrity. That's not always success. You
1:13:19
Speaker 1: might make fifty thousand dollars a year, you got a
1:13:20
Speaker 1: nice little place to stay, a call, your family, good,
1:13:22
Speaker 1: you're happy. Yeah, but I think we also success. The
1:13:25
Speaker 1: problem with black success is that it doesn't transfer across generations, right,
1:13:28
Speaker 1: you want to you're taking care of the next generation,
1:13:30
Speaker 1: the next generation, you have things to hand down. No,
1:13:34
Speaker 1: it's not, but are fifty is. But I think the
1:13:37
Speaker 1: problem is is that we're not going to catch up
1:13:39
Speaker 1: to white people like you know, and so like the
1:13:41
Speaker 1: New York Times did the whole thing with like all
1:13:43
Speaker 1: these infographics about like if a black person achieves what
1:13:47
Speaker 1: it's born rich, they're not likely to stay in that
1:13:50
Speaker 1: level of richness. They're gonna fall out of it. They're
1:13:52
Speaker 1: likely to fall out of it. If a white person
1:13:53
Speaker 1: is born rich, they're much basisplicularly, black men are not
1:13:56
Speaker 1: an If you're born like a like a kid of
1:13:58
Speaker 1: a rich black person like Michael Jordan's son. There's I'm
1:14:01
Speaker 1: not saying they're gonna happen, but it's likely that you
1:14:03
Speaker 1: will fall out of that to a lower level, not
1:14:05
Speaker 1: all the way down, and some fall all the way down.
1:14:07
Speaker 1: White people don't generally fall out of the level that
1:14:09
Speaker 1: they're born into. What the hell here we go? Geichi? Man,
1:14:13
Speaker 1: don't you disrespect don't don't disrespect my coach, your boy,
1:14:21
Speaker 1: that's right everything he said. Uh, it's so, it's the
1:14:27
Speaker 1: areas of it's along the coast a lot of South Carolina.
1:14:30
Speaker 1: It's basically the black people from West Africa who were
1:14:33
Speaker 1: enslave there. But and they lived on the sea. The
1:14:35
Speaker 1: spartum lived on the sea islands. Now, the thing was
1:14:38
Speaker 1: is that it was once slavery was ended, white people
1:14:41
Speaker 1: fled those islands because they were too hard to get to.
1:14:43
Speaker 1: And once slave was over, so black people in that
1:14:45
Speaker 1: part of the country were allowed to hold on to
1:14:47
Speaker 1: a lot of their West African culture. Talk that talk
1:14:49
Speaker 1: like he was just talking about, they have their own dialect, Gichi. Yeah.
1:14:52
Speaker 1: And so it's a very and this again black is
1:14:54
Speaker 1: on monolith there you think black people sort of speak
1:14:57
Speaker 1: the same vernacular, not in that part of the country.
1:15:00
Speaker 1: Don't know. It's just so interesting. I did an ancestry test.
1:15:03
Speaker 1: I did twenty three and me and I found out
1:15:05
Speaker 1: I was ninety seven percent West African. Yo. Wow, I'm
1:15:08
Speaker 1: sure most people in Charleston are. Yeah. I just did
1:15:11
Speaker 1: African ancestry, so I'm waiting to see exactly where in
1:15:13
Speaker 1: West Africa. I'm hoping for Nigeria. I do. I love Nigeria.
1:15:17
Speaker 1: It's like Nigeria, but I'm hoping for stools. My homie
1:15:20
Speaker 1: DJ Coupy. But I it's when I when I heard that,
1:15:23
Speaker 1: I was like wow, and then you realize like damn,
1:15:25
Speaker 1: we really are like right there, and it's funny. I
1:15:27
Speaker 1: just did the ancestry test and I found out most
1:15:29
Speaker 1: black people are twenty five percent white European. I was
1:15:33
Speaker 1: twenty seven percent, and I was like, man, I'm literally
1:15:35
Speaker 1: not black enough. I got to listen people getting I'm
1:15:40
Speaker 1: like two percent. I'm black. I'm so happy. I know,
1:15:45
Speaker 1: I know it makes you feel like, it makes you
1:15:47
Speaker 1: feel better. Yeah, And I was like, everybody in high
1:15:49
Speaker 1: school is right, Yeah, I'm not black enough. Don't you
1:15:53
Speaker 1: think that America has an unhealthy obsession with celebrity. Yes,
1:15:57
Speaker 1: I mean I think America we a lot of this.
1:15:59
Speaker 1: This country is founded on Europeans British principles, and we
1:16:01
Speaker 1: still want kings and queens. Oh so I think we
1:16:05
Speaker 1: I think we still have this our celebrity our celebrity
1:16:07
Speaker 1: session is chase too. We want to believe that there's
1:16:09
Speaker 1: some people who are a higher class of people than us. Yeah,
1:16:12
Speaker 1: you think that's just an American thing, though, Well, I
1:16:14
Speaker 1: think we've exported that to the world. I think we
1:16:16
Speaker 1: know we export pop culture to the world. You know,
1:16:18
Speaker 1: we don't. We don't import a lot of pop culture.
1:16:20
Speaker 1: Even the ones who come here from other countries have
1:16:22
Speaker 1: to then do it through our system, you know. So yeah,
1:16:24
Speaker 1: I think that we I think it's it's certainly an
1:16:26
Speaker 1: unhealthy obsession, and I think it's gotten worse because of
1:16:28
Speaker 1: social media. Like I don't really need to know, like
1:16:30
Speaker 1: what knowing what Kanye thinks about Trump effect is going
1:16:32
Speaker 1: to affect how people approaches music. I was watching Twitter yesterday.
1:16:37
Speaker 1: He had two million tweets. I'm like, really, like two
1:16:42
Speaker 1: million people care about who he says he likes, and
1:16:46
Speaker 1: that's the problem I find myself in two like I
1:16:48
Speaker 1: gotta care because too many people care people. That's the
1:16:50
Speaker 1: problem I find, like I don't want to talk about this,
1:16:53
Speaker 1: and you do the rounds like this, and you go
1:16:55
Speaker 1: and I go on a lot CNNs and they ask
1:16:56
Speaker 1: me questions like I actually don't care. I really don't care,
1:17:01
Speaker 1: like I'm not interested in But we have to we
1:17:03
Speaker 1: have to wear in media. You have to have an opinion,
1:17:05
Speaker 1: talk about it. Yeah, even if your opinion is I
1:17:07
Speaker 1: don't care, that was my opinion. There you go said,
1:17:10
Speaker 1: I sat down and chopped it up with him, so
1:17:12
Speaker 1: I know you listen to that. I'll be getting invited
1:17:13
Speaker 1: to the car and well, no, we did interviews so
1:17:15
Speaker 1: you get to hear him. Well cool how he feels.
1:17:18
Speaker 1: And you definitely didn't fly me up. Definitely did you.
1:17:22
Speaker 1: You didn't pay for your own ticket though somebody paid.
1:17:24
Speaker 1: Okay you, I said, somebody paid for that ticket. There's
1:17:28
Speaker 1: no way I'm not flying with just you know, goddamn,
1:17:30

1:17:34
Speaker 1: can finally talk about the Chris Rock Dock. Yeah, Chris
1:17:36

1:17:40

1:17:49
Speaker 1: you a lot of it's a lot of great people.
1:17:51
Speaker 1: And his brother, Tony Rock is amazing in it. I
1:17:53
Speaker 1: think I feel like Tony Rock is a hidden star
1:17:55
Speaker 1: of this thing and people are gonna think, like, why
1:17:56
Speaker 1: are we seeing him more? Yeah? No, well, I mean

1:18:03

1:19:46
Speaker 1: first of all, Janelle Money's album is in stores today,
1:19:49
Speaker 1: so make sure you stream that in stores online, you know,
1:19:53
Speaker 1: I guess we don't really say in stores as much,
1:19:55
Speaker 1: but dirty computers out as well as her emotion picture,
1:19:58
Speaker 1: so check all of that out. Some music and they do, yeah, absolutely,
1:20:02
Speaker 1: yeah they do. But I think that's not how people
1:20:04
Speaker 1: consume their music as much anymore. Definitely not. I love screaming,
1:20:07
Speaker 1: Thank God for it. And some people don't even bother
1:20:09
Speaker 1: putting it in store, some people do digital only releases.
1:20:11
Speaker 1: It just depends, all right. But she has opened up
1:20:14
Speaker 1: on the cover of Rolling Stone. They did a story
1:20:17
Speaker 1: on her and she discusses her sexuality now. She said,
1:20:20
Speaker 1: she's still learning about her sexuality. She said, but then
1:20:23
Speaker 1: later I read about pan sexuality and I was like, oh,
1:20:26
Speaker 1: these are things that I identify with. Two. I'm open
1:20:28
Speaker 1: to learning more about myself. She said. I just live
1:20:32
Speaker 1: my life and people can feel free to discuss whatever
1:20:34
Speaker 1: it is they think and use whatever adjectives they feel.
1:20:36
Speaker 1: I definitely googled their laugh is right, and she said
1:20:41
Speaker 1: she wants young girls, young boys, non binary, gay, strait queer,
1:20:44
Speaker 1: people who are having a hard time dealing with their sexuality,
1:20:47
Speaker 1: dealing with feeling ostracized or bullied for just being their
1:20:50
Speaker 1: unique self to know that I see you. This album
1:20:52
Speaker 1: is for you. Be proud. What is pan sexual I mean,
1:20:55
Speaker 1: I know what it is. But for the people who
1:20:56
Speaker 1: don't know what is pan sexuality, pan sexuality is like
1:21:00
Speaker 1: just basically loving anything everyone, everyone does, everyone, whether you're women, man, trans,
1:21:08
Speaker 1: you know, don't call that stir fry. You just put
1:21:10
Speaker 1: everything in the pain. You just nothing, so there's no
1:21:14
Speaker 1: limitations to your sexual choice, with biological sex, with gender
1:21:17
Speaker 1: or gender identity. That's their definition. I think you call
1:21:20
Speaker 1: it stir fry. That's file. We'll do it. We'll call
1:21:23
Speaker 1: it pan sexuality, all right now. Ja Cole did a
1:21:25
Speaker 1: Twitter Q and A and he answered some questions. I'll
1:21:28
Speaker 1: give you some of the highlights that Vibe magazine put up.
1:21:31
Speaker 1: His favorite track on the album is window Pane, he said,
1:21:35
Speaker 1: and then actually and then the cutoff. He also talked
1:21:39
Speaker 1: about the hardest song to finish. He said it was
1:21:41
Speaker 1: nineteen eighty five and atm addicted to money. He suggested
1:21:44
Speaker 1: to get the drums perfect was stressful. He said. The
1:21:46
Speaker 1: first version of the album was done in two weeks.
1:21:48
Speaker 1: The final version that got released took six months total.
1:21:52
Speaker 1: Now let me see one more thing. Oh, if he
1:21:55
Speaker 1: produced anything on the album, he said, he produced everything
1:21:57
Speaker 1: except for Kevin's Heart. I am all I stand by
1:22:01
Speaker 1: the fact that j Cole makes ted talk music and
1:22:04
Speaker 1: this album is very good as long as you listen
1:22:06
Speaker 1: to it before six am. I listen to it when
1:22:08
Speaker 1: I'm riding to work at five am in the morning.
1:22:10
Speaker 1: Sounds amazing at that time. All right. Now, They asked
1:22:14
Speaker 1: him if you could collab with anyone dead or alive,
1:22:16
Speaker 1: who would it be, and he said, pack no question.
1:22:19
Speaker 1: And then he said in on j three thousand, I
1:22:21
Speaker 1: mean we didn't never getting that chemical album. That ain't happening. Well,
1:22:25
Speaker 1: I think it will. You didn't put him on the list.
1:22:29
Speaker 1: Maybe he's already He's already collabed with him though, right,
1:22:31
Speaker 1: oh right, yeah, so that doesn't count now, Kalie. She
1:22:34
Speaker 1: went on Hollywood Unlocked and talked about her relationship with
1:22:38
Speaker 1: Nas and detailed how violent it was. According to Kalie,
1:22:43
Speaker 1: she was saying they got married at such a young age.
1:22:45
Speaker 1: She met him when she was only twenty two years old,
1:22:47
Speaker 1: and she said they were really intense highs and really
1:22:51
Speaker 1: intense lows. And she said, his infidelity isn't what really
1:22:54
Speaker 1: caused her to leave. It wasn't the straw that broke
1:22:56
Speaker 1: the camel's back. It was also because not only was
1:22:58
Speaker 1: he cheating, but he also was fighting with her and
1:23:01
Speaker 1: she was fighting back. Check it out, did he hit me?
1:23:05
Speaker 1: Did I hit him back? It was because there he
1:23:08
Speaker 1: would block out. He would drink too much. He drank
1:23:10
Speaker 1: way too much. He will never admit it, and so
1:23:13
Speaker 1: a lot of the stuff he may not remember. You know.
1:23:16
Speaker 1: There have been times when like literally we would have
1:23:18
Speaker 1: the worst night ever, like and we would wake up
1:23:21
Speaker 1: the next day it's like it never happened. Was he
1:23:24
Speaker 1: ever remorseful? He bought gifts a man o man. Between
1:23:28
Speaker 1: Colise's allegations and yeay and that Maga hat y'all really
1:23:31
Speaker 1: gonna be morally conflicted when that NAS album produced by
1:23:34
Speaker 1: Kanye drops all Right. In addition to that, she talked
1:23:37
Speaker 1: about how seeing and why she didn't say anything about
1:23:41
Speaker 1: what happened with her and NAS. Something reminded me of Rihanna.
1:23:46
Speaker 1: The only way I can describe it was like double jeps,
1:23:49
Speaker 1: Like I felt like do I chump in? Like do
1:23:50
Speaker 1: I say it? Because I had bruises all over my
1:23:52
Speaker 1: body at that time, seeing her the way she looked
1:23:56
Speaker 1: and then looking at myself, I was embarrassed. For me.
1:23:58
Speaker 1: It was kind of like, you're gonna just let let go.
1:24:00
Speaker 1: You're not gonna say anything. We were married, we weren't dating.
1:24:03
