Speaker 1: So what does tequila and tacos got to do with this?
Speaker 1: It's celebrating a win. Okay, America will find a way
Speaker 1: to market everything. Huh. I'm just trying to I'm just
Speaker 1: trying to figure that they drink the quila and tacos
Speaker 1: after they won the war, Like, how did that turn
Speaker 1: in this? Because I've never in my life heard anybody
Speaker 1: say single demo was about a war. Ever, every every
Speaker 1: everybody just gets excited to dreamt we celebrate the fourth
Speaker 1: of July or something like that. Yeah, that's the big
Speaker 1: misconception though, that that's like Mexican Independence Day. But it's not.
Speaker 1: It's a celebration of the Battle of Puebla where the
Speaker 1: French troops they retreated following out. So I thought Mexican
Speaker 1: Independence Day was a whole other thing. Y, No, it
Speaker 1: is a whole Yeah, it is a whole other thing.
Speaker 1: But I was saying, like, we celebrate the fourth of
Speaker 1: July and people do fireworks. What does that have to
Speaker 1: do in anything? Yeah? I agree with you. I agree
Speaker 1: with you. Actually say we find a way to market
Speaker 1: the holiday, just like you know, you put Jesus on
Speaker 1: East but then you get chocolate bunnies and bunnies that
Speaker 1: lay eggs and bunny don't even lay no damn eggs.
Speaker 1: Then you get Christmas as Jesus what birthday? And then
Speaker 1: you got a fat white man sliding down the chimney
Speaker 1: giving everybody gifts. How do we stay? How do you
Speaker 1: still believe in that after all these yea, you know what?
Speaker 1: Never what we got the front page? Noose? Oh and
Speaker 1: I just want to say, yesterday because I'm in text
Speaker 1: and Cacos, we went to this place at Cheshire Hall Museum.
Speaker 1: What is that? And it was very interesting? So what
Speaker 1: it is is they have they showed us like where
Speaker 1: the slaves lived, there was it's a plantation and they
Speaker 1: still have like the original buildings from two hundred years
Speaker 1: ago pieces of it. So they showed us the master's house,
Speaker 1: they showed us the slave court, as we got to
Speaker 1: walk inside this cotton they still have cotton growing there.
Speaker 1: So an experience, I think it's just more of for
Speaker 1: a show. I did. I did pick some just to
Speaker 1: see what it was like. Nah, hell no enough, But
Speaker 1: I'm telling you you could feel like spirits. It was
Speaker 1: a powerful experience. I'm sure energy is never lost to destroy,
Speaker 1: just merely transfer from one party to the next. I'm
Speaker 1: sure the energy there haven't gone anywhere, especially you know
Speaker 1: with the horrendous things that happened there, and they had
Speaker 1: some great energy. Actually in the front there's like there
Speaker 1: was one area that was used just for events and
Speaker 1: holidays like Christmas and things like that for the slaves
Speaker 1: to celebrate. So it was just an interesting experience because sometimes,
Speaker 1: you know, you go on vacation and you don't go
Speaker 1: and take a look at the history. So I was
Speaker 1: just making sure that while we're out here in Turks
Speaker 1: and Cakeos, we're actually seeing what happened on the island.
Speaker 1: There's a lot of there's actually a lot of breakfast
Speaker 1: club listeners in turks and cakes that damn in and
Speaker 1: it as a mother el Okay, yeah, tell me about it.
Speaker 1: I met some of them and listen. You know it's
Speaker 1: Mental health Awareness Month. So today we have Shanty DAWs
Speaker 1: head dropped on a clues bonx for Shanty Da Shanty
Speaker 1: Do the leader of an organization called Silence to Shame.
Speaker 1: And you know they've been out here helping to eradicate
Speaker 1: the stigma against mental health, especially in the black community,
Speaker 1: for a long time. So I can't wait to talk
Speaker 1: to Shanty later on. And what we got a front
Speaker 1: page Nugi. Well, let's talk about Derek Shavin. His legal
Speaker 1: team is requesting a new trial. They're saying Jerry misconduct.
Speaker 1: Will tell you what their claims are. We don't care, devil,
Speaker 1: we don't care. Okay. It's the world most dangerous morning
Speaker 1: to show, the Breakfast Club. Yeah, it's the world most
Speaker 1: dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club. Charlomagne and God Angelie. Ye,
Speaker 1: I don't even know what the hell DJ and V
Speaker 1: yet he's off to day that that that much I
Speaker 1: do know, but let's you know, he has to travel day.
Speaker 1: I think he's coming to text and cages and you
Speaker 1: forgot to do hump Day today? I didn't did you
Speaker 1: did that? Oh? Okay? Sorry? Still drunk last night on vacation,
Speaker 1: m um. So, Derek Schauvin's legal team is asking for
Speaker 1: a new trial. They're saying jury misconduct now. According to
Speaker 1: this filing, Derek Chauvin's attorney says the former officers should
Speaker 1: have a new trial because of interests of justice, abuse
Speaker 1: of discretion that deprived the defendant of a fair trial,
Speaker 1: prosecutorial and jury misconduct, errors of a law at trial,
Speaker 1: and a verdict that is contrary to law. So they
Speaker 1: also said that the jury felt threatened or intimidated, felt
Speaker 1: race based pressure during the proceedings, and failed to adhere
Speaker 1: to instructions during deliberations. And they also said the court
Speaker 1: failed to sequest the jury during the trial, which resulted
Speaker 1: to their exposure to prejudicial publicity. I want Derek Chauvin's
Speaker 1: whole legal team to shut the f up for okay,
Speaker 1: let's not be stupid here. A video went viral of
Speaker 1: that devil, Derek Chauvin murdering George Floyd. The whole world
Speaker 1: shot impossible to escape it. But it also doesn't matter.
Speaker 1: You killed that man. I don't care how you try
Speaker 1: to flip it. I don't care how you try to
Speaker 1: bounce it. I don't care if you get Diddy to
Speaker 1: remix it. You murdered George Floyd. And no matter how
Speaker 1: we look at it, you murdered George Floyd. You can
Speaker 1: look at it with a telescope glasses where quare in contact.
Speaker 1: You killed that man. Period. Now one of the twelve
Speaker 1: jurors in the trial of Derek Chauvin is also under scrutiny.
Speaker 1: He was actually, you know, they're asked if they've been
Speaker 1: to any protests or things like that that have anything
Speaker 1: to do with anything that could be related to this trial.
Speaker 1: And one of these jurors, Brandon Mitchell, was pictured at
Speaker 1: a protest and he's wearing a Black Lives Matter hat
Speaker 1: and a T shirt with a picture of Martin Luther
Speaker 1: King Junior, as well as the phrase get your knee
Speaker 1: off our neck and b LM. And some people are
Speaker 1: feeling like perhaps he was biased. But here's what his
Speaker 1: explanation is. Yeah, that's why I attended any protest for
Speaker 1: George Floyd or anything for police brutality. My answer was no,
Speaker 1: because I hadn't this particular marches for more so for voting,
Speaker 1: voter registration, getting people out to get out and vote
Speaker 1: for the presidential election that was upcoming a couple of
Speaker 1: months afterwards. This was the only one that you attended. Correct,
Speaker 1: this is the only thing I send this. You did
Speaker 1: not attend the protest for on behalf of George Floyd
Speaker 1: or anything like that. No, I didn't did none of
Speaker 1: that either way. I was going to DC for this
Speaker 1: event even if George Floyd was stilive, being able to
Speaker 1: attend the same location. Martinton King gave his speech was
Speaker 1: a historic moment. Oh, black people have a lot to
Speaker 1: protest when we still in bondage and still getting oppressed
Speaker 1: in so many, so many ways. It's a lot of
Speaker 1: different protests that we could attend. Yes, you can attend
Speaker 1: the protest for voter suppression, you know you could. You
Speaker 1: could attend to protest for somebody else the police killed.
Speaker 1: Does that mean you should be ineligible to be on
Speaker 1: the jury for Well, he's saying it wasn't even a protest.
Speaker 1: He said, it was literally called the anniversary of the
Speaker 1: March on Washington, and it was the national thing. It
Speaker 1: wasn't you know it wasn't necessarily a protest. It wasn't
Speaker 1: any said no matter what, he would have been there.
Speaker 1: But he stays maintain that he was extremely honest throughout
Speaker 1: the end tire selection process. But what aren't you trying
Speaker 1: to attorneys could be using this when Derek Sharpers attorney
Speaker 1: trying to say, we saw him kill that man. He
Speaker 1: kneeled on that man's neck for nine minutes plus. Okay,
Speaker 1: what is he trying to say? What are they trying
Speaker 1: to say? Listen, they're trying to figure out a way
Speaker 1: to get him out of jail. So we shall see
Speaker 1: what happens, because you know, it was a win when
Speaker 1: we felt like, okay, at least there's some accountability. But
Speaker 1: now what that is your front page news? All right?
Speaker 1: We got what's the name of this segment? We do? No,
Speaker 1: I'm not drunk. I just keep forgetting because I don't
Speaker 1: know why we used to call it tell them why
Speaker 1: you're mad back in the day, and then we turned
Speaker 1: it to get it off your chest. But it's years ago. No,
Speaker 1: but it just all feels the same to me. For
Speaker 1: the decision. Guys, let's do get it off your chest
Speaker 1: right now. If you want to tell us why you're blessed,
Speaker 1: reach out and touch us one hundred and five and
Speaker 1: five one or five one. But if you want to
Speaker 1: tell us you know why you're angry, why are you upset?
Speaker 1: You just want to get something off your chests, you
Speaker 1: can reach out and touch us two one, one hundred
Speaker 1: and five and five one oh five one. It is
Speaker 1: the world most dangerous morning to show the breakfast Club.

Speaker 1: cover represents him being the Lebron James and rat baby,
Speaker 1: you gotta stop saying, man, you gotta you gotta stop
Speaker 1: paying jaff can't say whatever he wants. He's favorite rappers.
Speaker 1: Let him say what he wants. That's how he feels.
Speaker 1: He just has to stop saying that. Like he just
Speaker 1: like he's not the Lebron James, the rap he's more.

Speaker 1: hard for him to go out and meet people in
Speaker 1: person and sometimes sometimes people Sometimes people also like those
Speaker 1: apps because people are vetted out before you can even
Speaker 1: get on there, like something like this that's membership only.
Speaker 1: Wasn't he just with j Loo Monday? We don't know
Speaker 1: when this happened. This could have happened months ago. They
Speaker 1: didn't give an exact date, but she was reminiscing about
Speaker 1: the time that she unmatched him and he sent that
Speaker 1: video to her. Lord Mercy, what, I don't think it
Speaker 1: means times are hard. It just means that I just
Speaker 1: don't have time, you know, So this I'd still want
Speaker 1: to date all right now? Fifty cents status as a
Speaker 1: big TV producer is not stopping continuing to grow. He
Speaker 1: has a new project, Confessions of a Crime Queen, and
Speaker 1: it just got a straightest series order. According to Deadline,
Speaker 1: it's a first of its kind anthology series. It combines
Speaker 1: documentary and scripted elements to bring the story to life.
Speaker 1: It's similar to American horror story, so the story and
Speaker 1: characters will change each season. Or drop on a clue
Speaker 1: bump from mister Curtis Jackson green Light Gang. He is
Speaker 1: not playing at all when it comes to TV in
Speaker 1: a film. I hope y'all paying attention. As I said,
Speaker 1: I love New York, but I live in Houston. Now
Speaker 1: I'll explain later. Swipe left and that's the news. So
Speaker 1: I guess they're filming that in Houston. Okay, all right now.
Speaker 1: Dan Sanders is very upset about the fact that there
Speaker 1: were no HBCU players in the NFL draft. He said,
Speaker 1: our kids are being neglected and rejected. I witness a
Speaker 1: multitude of kids that we played against that were more
Speaker 1: than qualified to be drafted. My prayers are that this
Speaker 1: won't ever happen again. You know, he coaches at an
Speaker 1: HBCU Jackson State. Yeah, I mean that has to be
Speaker 1: because scouts aren't going to these HBCU games. Right, our
Speaker 1: scouts aren't taking um HBCUs as serious as they're taking
Speaker 1: you know, I guess, I guess the biggest schools because
Speaker 1: there's absolutely no reason nobody from an HBCU you shouldn't
Speaker 1: have been drafted. Yeah, they were two hundred and fifty
Speaker 1: nine picks in the twenty twenty one NFL Draft and
Speaker 1: not a single draft pick featured a player from an HBCU.
Speaker 1: You're just not gonna sit here and tell me that
Speaker 1: you know those kids that the HBCUs aren't good enough.
Speaker 1: You're not gonna you can't hand me that. So I
Speaker 1: would assume the scouts are neglecting the HBCUs. Why because
Speaker 1: they're HBCUs. All right. Now, let's talk about Chad and
Speaker 1: Johnson is going to be fighting on the Floyd Mayweather
Speaker 1: Logan Paul undercard, and so he has agreed to do
Speaker 1: an exhibition bout that's going to be happening in June
Speaker 1: six at the hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida,
Speaker 1: and they said it's likely to be a four sixth
Speaker 1: round exhibition bout. The opponent has not been finalized yet,
Speaker 1: but here is Chad Johnson on the I Am Athlete
Speaker 1: podcast talking about it. Lena Floyd management manager, hit me like, hey, listen, man,
Speaker 1: I got an opportunity for you know, Floyd fighting June
Speaker 1: six in Miami at the hard Rock. You can get
Speaker 1: in there, make it a cool million, you know, and
Speaker 1: do a few rounds. So I I told Ellie, I say, man,
Speaker 1: let me get back to you, because I looked at
Speaker 1: the dates in the time it would take for me
Speaker 1: and get in adequate shape to be able to do
Speaker 1: that and not embarrass myself in front of the world.
Speaker 1: So it's like I got seven eight weeks. So I
Speaker 1: hit him back to following morning, ran it through my kids,
Speaker 1: ran it through the missus. I call it Ellavia back.
Speaker 1: I say, man, let do this. That's the same thing
Speaker 1: they told Nate Robinson. I don't know when y'all athletes
Speaker 1: are gonna realize you can't play boxing, Okay. Snoop Dogg
Speaker 1: said it's so eloquently and he said that you can't
Speaker 1: play boxing. One of y'all not gonna be happy until
Speaker 1: you absolutely positively die in the ring. Lett Nate Robinson,
Speaker 1: be a lesson to you. You can't just get in
Speaker 1: that boxing ring. There's a science to boxing, y'all gonna
Speaker 1: get hurt in a real way depending on who he's fighting, right,
Speaker 1: So I guess we'll see. You know, it'll be interesting,
Speaker 1: the same thing you can be getting here for a
Speaker 1: few rounds make a million dollars. Now, now look, now,
Speaker 1: be honest, does it sound like something you want to
Speaker 1: watch now that you know he's on the undercard too?
Speaker 1: As well as watching No no, no period and oh
Speaker 1: period no not for fifty ninety nine? No, hell no,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't you out of your damn mine. Like I've
Speaker 1: actually paid for a fight last week. I watched um
Speaker 1: Uh Ruise fight. Ruise fought last week. I watched him
Speaker 1: fight last week. But I paid for that because Ruise
Speaker 1: is an actual boxer and there are actual boxing matches.
Speaker 1: It's an actual boxing Yeah, but not Logan Paul isn't
Speaker 1: Chad Johnson is. I'm not interested. I'm not spending my
Speaker 1: heart to watch that. No, I'm watching on social media.
Speaker 1: All the clips will be right on Instagram. Well that
Speaker 1: is your report, that's right. We got front page coming
Speaker 1: up next. What are you talking about? You man? You
Speaker 1: know this Bill Gates Melinda Gates separation is interesting to
Speaker 1: me because now there's reports that he took vacations every
Speaker 1: year with his ex while he was married. Okay, it's
Speaker 1: getting good. This cage story is getting good. It's the
Speaker 1: world most dangerous morning show to Breakfast Club. So Breakfast Club,
Speaker 1: your morning's will never be the same. Angela here and
Speaker 1: the General Insurance understands that stuff happens, including lapses in
Speaker 1: auto coverage. At the General, they make it easy to
Speaker 1: get reinstated and we'll work with you to keep you covered.
Speaker 1: Called eight hundred General or go to the General dot
Speaker 1: com to find out more. Some restrictions apply. Yes, it's
Speaker 1: the world most Dangerous morning show to Breakfast Club. Charlemagne
Speaker 1: and God. Angela E. Dj Envia is off today. Hello
Speaker 1: on his fine Wednesday morning stoppage news. What we got you? Well,
Speaker 1: let's talk about the separation between Bill Gates and Melinda Gates.
Speaker 1: And people are also discussing how you know, they're worth
Speaker 1: about one hundred and twenty seven billion dollars or something
Speaker 1: like that, so they'll both be fine. But clearly this
Speaker 1: has been in the works for some time because I
Speaker 1: already had their separation agreement ready, so that by the
Speaker 1: time they announced that they were getting divorced. All of
Speaker 1: that part was in place, so you can see this
Speaker 1: is something that's been in the works, but something that
Speaker 1: has been interesting has been being talked about, and they're
Speaker 1: saying that Bill Gates would go on annual trips with
Speaker 1: an ex girlfriend. Now, there was a nineteen ninety seven
Speaker 1: Time profile that resurfaced where he discussed his relationship with
Speaker 1: his long time ex girlfriend and when blad and basically
Speaker 1: per the article, they continued to spend long weekends on
Speaker 1: the beach together once a year even after he got
Speaker 1: married in nineteen ninety four, and it was agreed upon.
Speaker 1: I guess between him and Melinda, so they said. They
Speaker 1: met in nineteen eighty four, and I guess. She's five
Speaker 1: years older than him, so she was ready for marriage.
Speaker 1: He wasn't. They remained close friends. They broke up in
Speaker 1: nineteen eighties seven, and he said, when I was off
Speaker 1: on my own thinking about marrying Melinda, I called Anne
Speaker 1: and asked for her approval. She gave it. I said
Speaker 1: she'd be a good match for him. I said she'd
Speaker 1: be a good match for him because she had intellectual stamina.
Speaker 1: Even now, he still has this arrangement where he can
Speaker 1: still go on vacation once a year with his ex. Oh,
Speaker 1: I thought this was something a little more juicy. I
Speaker 1: thought Bill had holes. He just had a little X.
Speaker 1: What do you think that? You said? What? What do
Speaker 1: you think? I mean, it's a little weird, Like can
Speaker 1: you imagine going on vacation once a year with your
Speaker 1: ex who you also asked for permission to marry your wife?
Speaker 1: I mean, we've never dated somebody who's worth one hundred
Speaker 1: billion dollars. I'm sure that you did somebody that's got
Speaker 1: one hundred billion dollars. You'll make you, you know, you'll
Speaker 1: make some exense kinds of concessions. That's all I'm saying.
Speaker 1: You know, I don't know. You know. The beauty of
Speaker 1: Bill Gates and Melinda Gates is any date that you
Speaker 1: go on with them is high level tricking because they
Speaker 1: used to a certain lifestyle, so you'll be a part
Speaker 1: of that lifestyle. You can't take Melinda nowhere regular, you
Speaker 1: can't take Bill nowhere. You might love it, do you
Speaker 1: think so? Maybe? Yes, look at Jeff Bezos and then
Speaker 1: his ex wife McKenzie. She married a science teacher. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but it might just be like she might say, I
Speaker 1: want some chick fil a. No, we say that, But
Speaker 1: where did they travel? Where do they live? You think
Speaker 1: she downgraded? You think she's living like a science teacher
Speaker 1: living when she's used to living like a basics She
Speaker 1: has money, But what I'm saying is when you have
Speaker 1: that much money, it's not even about that anymore. Some
Speaker 1: of the richest people, the way that they dress, you
Speaker 1: wouldn't even think they have money like that, the places
Speaker 1: that they go to eat, all of that. I know
Speaker 1: people who are rich to still flying in economy just
Speaker 1: because they don't feel they need to fly private. What
Speaker 1: the house look like. Probably don't got to touch nothing,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, you walk in the temperature
Speaker 1: just robots come up to you and serve you. You know,
Speaker 1: I don't care that they don't dress and look what
Speaker 1: they crib look like. Where do they travel? They probably
Speaker 1: gotta private jetting up a runway in the backyard. I'm
Speaker 1: just saying, it's got to be high level trick. Would
Speaker 1: Bill and melindatho it used to a certain lifestyle. That's
Speaker 1: when you do something real simplistic and they'd be like, ooh,
Speaker 1: I've never had Polynesians saw us before. All right, Now,
Speaker 1: there's been a lot of violence in Colombia, and I
Speaker 1: want to make sure that we address this. In Bogata, Colombia,
Speaker 1: there's been protests that erupted on April twenty eighth that
Speaker 1: was in response to a tax proposal by the government
Speaker 1: of the President. And in case you guys don't know
Speaker 1: what's happening there, there's also a lot of police brutality
Speaker 1: that's been happening in response to these protests. So what
Speaker 1: happened is the president proposed the tax reform, saying the
Speaker 1: Colombian state has no money because of the pandemic. So
Speaker 1: because of that the shortage of money, which by the way,
Speaker 1: people are saying is really caused by corruption by state
Speaker 1: officials and it's that's the reason why they don't have it.
Speaker 1: There's a tax reform that will make working in middle
Speaker 1: class people pay a ninety percent tax on water, gas, electricity, internet,
Speaker 1: and sewers. So imagine you already are struggling financially and
Speaker 1: now there's a nineteen percent tax impose on those everyday
Speaker 1: things and essentials like meat, milk, eggs, tampons, medications, books, rice,
Speaker 1: all of that. Now, this reform also imposes new income
Speaker 1: taxes on people who earn more than seven hundred US
Speaker 1: dollars a month, and did you know the minimum salary
Speaker 1: in Colombia is only two hundred and sixty US dollars
Speaker 1: a month. So everything has been crushed right now. Unemployment
Speaker 1: rate is above fourteen percent, poverty, hunger, widespread economic devastation.
Speaker 1: So that tax reform bill was another slap in the
Speaker 1: face by the Colombian government during a crisis. That's when
Speaker 1: thousands of Colombians actually took to the streets. They were
Speaker 1: striking against this tax reform bill. And now there's been
Speaker 1: police brutality in response to these protests and people are
Speaker 1: being killed by the police. So we just want to
Speaker 1: let you know what's going on in Colombia. Lord of Mercy,
Speaker 1: Just when you think you got it bad, there's always
Speaker 1: somebody out there who got it worse. Right, they put
Speaker 1: your problems down, and somebody put their problems down, you'll
Speaker 1: pick your problems back up fast. So yeah, prayers up
Speaker 1: for everybody in Columbia going to do all right. Well,
Speaker 1: that is your front page news. And listen, you know
Speaker 1: it's mental health Awareness month. So coming up next, we
Speaker 1: have a woman that I love. Her name is Shanty.
Speaker 1: Does she has an organization called Silence to Shame. They
Speaker 1: are actually doing a virtual gala tonight, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean, the honor people that are doing the work
Speaker 1: in the mental health space. So we'll talk to Shanty
Speaker 1: Does when we come back about that and a whole
Speaker 1: bunch of other stuff. You know, we gotta protect our
Speaker 1: peace out here, and Shanty has some tips on how
Speaker 1: to do that as well. Okay, so it's the world
Speaker 1: most dangerous. Want to show the Breakfast Club, the Breakfast Club,
Speaker 1: putting everybody in DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy
Speaker 1: we are the Breakfast Club. We got a special guest
Speaker 1: in the building, perfect person to have during mental health
Speaker 1: away in this month. Yes, Shanty Does. You might know
Speaker 1: her from Silence to Shame. Celebrating the fifth anniversary. By
Speaker 1: the way, that's right in congratulations for everything, Thank you
Speaker 1: so much. How y'all doing. I can't believe. I'm like here,
Speaker 1: what y'all? I ain't lie. When I landed in New York,
Speaker 1: it was like being in a movie seeing a lot
Speaker 1: of people. It was just weird, was strange. But I'm
Speaker 1: just grateful like that we're finally turning the curve a
Speaker 1: little bit. You know, I've heard your name so much
Speaker 1: over the past year. I mean I always hear your name,
Speaker 1: but literally over the past year, because I feel like
Speaker 1: none of us would be the same after this pandemic.
Speaker 1: But it's like so many people saw themselves for the
Speaker 1: first time, especially in the industry, and they didn't like
Speaker 1: what they see, so they started having so many questions
Speaker 1: about their mental health and mental illness. So it was
Speaker 1: always I need to connect with silence to shame and
Speaker 1: shanty dogs always. Did you notice that too? I did,
Speaker 1: And you know, I'm trying not to get emotional, but
Speaker 1: like you know, this movement started from such a place
Speaker 1: of pain, like with me constantly take my own life,
Speaker 1: and you know, we talked about this and I appreciate y'all.
Speaker 1: This is my fourth time on the Breakfast Club, Like
Speaker 1: I feel like, you know, this is the Breakfast of
Speaker 1: Champions for me, Like you know, it's such a big deal,
Speaker 1: but it's so humbling though, just to know that, like
Speaker 1: there's a change and it's a culture that's shifting in
Speaker 1: our music business. And so many people come to me
Speaker 1: Charlemagne and they'll text me anonymously, and colleagues and executives
Speaker 1: about their anxiety or being afraid to open up, and
Speaker 1: they're still not at a place where they want to
Speaker 1: share publicly. But the fact that they're telling me, it's
Speaker 1: like a really big deal. And I don't want anything
Speaker 1: in return. I just want people to be healthy. We
Speaker 1: always reach out and say that we need helpful people,
Speaker 1: but how can the family members of people dealing with
Speaker 1: mental illness get assistance? Yeah, so it's funny you ask
Speaker 1: that we actually have another family member that's living with
Speaker 1: bipolar disorder and Ski's effective disorder. And I know when
Speaker 1: I first went through that with my family, it was
Speaker 1: probably like two thousand and eight, two thousand and nine,
Speaker 1: and I was, you know, working at Motown at the
Speaker 1: height of the business and didn't know as much about it.
Speaker 1: And it was my sister or my late sister, who
Speaker 1: was like, you really need to take a class. And
Speaker 1: so NAMI, which is a National Alliance on Mental Illness,
Speaker 1: And shout out to NAMI because they now have a
Speaker 1: black CEO, mister Dan Gillison, who you actually met at
Speaker 1: Taraji's death. He said to tell you hello. But they
Speaker 1: have this great program called Family to Family and it's
Speaker 1: for anybody and it's like a maybe like a twelve
Speaker 1: week class or ten week class that kind of takes
Speaker 1: you through learning about how to care for your loved ones.
Speaker 1: And I didn't even know those type of resources existed.
Speaker 1: But I do encourage family members because if your family
Speaker 1: member has a psychotic break or an episode or has
Speaker 1: to be put in a mental health hospital, it is
Speaker 1: so traumatic on the family and you have to learn
Speaker 1: how to deal with it, and you have to learn
Speaker 1: how to properly be there for your loved one and
Speaker 1: not to be judgmental. So I really encourage people because
Speaker 1: your mental health is being normalized now right Obviously you're
Speaker 1: one of the advocates that normalizes it every day on
Speaker 1: social media and using your platform here, but it's still
Speaker 1: a lot we don't know about it. And so dealing
Speaker 1: with anxiety or depression is one thing, but when you
Speaker 1: have a severe mental illness, nobody really know what to
Speaker 1: do with that. Shout out to New York because I
Speaker 1: saw there was like a law pass or something where
Speaker 1: the cops aren't being called now if there's a mental
Speaker 1: health issue, there's actually a unit I think to deal
Speaker 1: with that, and that's a really big deal because even
Speaker 1: police officers are not trained properly to know how to
Speaker 1: deal with people who are suffering from a psychotic break
Speaker 1: or is mental illness. So we got to do more
Speaker 1: work in that area as well. But going back to
Speaker 1: the families, like get educated, make it a part of
Speaker 1: the conversation. You got to deal with the elephant in
Speaker 1: the room. If you know your daughter or your husband,
Speaker 1: somebody sitting there talking to themselves at dinner, they need help.
Speaker 1: But you also got to get help so you can
Speaker 1: understand how to navigate this process because it can be
Speaker 1: debilitating on the families. Sometimes there is a call and
Speaker 1: there's a problem with somebody with mental health. And let's
Speaker 1: say somebody with mental health does something, let's say, hurt
Speaker 1: somebody else or kill somebody. If we go to that
Speaker 1: for at that distance, what should happen? If you think
Speaker 1: about it, maybe they weren't on their meds. And if
Speaker 1: they weren't on their meds, maybe they weren't in their
Speaker 1: right mind. Should they go to jail for life for
Speaker 1: mental health or should they get help and then be
Speaker 1: able to come back out? Like what do you think
Speaker 1: should happen in a case like that? Well, I don't
Speaker 1: think they should go to jail for it because I
Speaker 1: don't think, you know, we should criminalize, right, somebody dealing
Speaker 1: with mental health issues. And it's funny, you know, suicide
Speaker 1: and some cultures, not necessarily in Western culture, but it
Speaker 1: is a criminal act. That's why when people say, oh,
Speaker 1: such and such committed suicide, I don't say that anymore.
Speaker 1: I don't say that my dad committed suicide. I say
Speaker 1: he completed suicide because it denotes a criminal act. So
Speaker 1: what I think should happen is we need more systems
Speaker 1: in place, especially in these jails you know that are
Speaker 1: all privatized, which that's a whole different subject in scenario,
Speaker 1: but we need to be able to rehabilitate people from
Speaker 1: a place of wellness. We need more institutions. And you
Speaker 1: know how like you have older people who live in
Speaker 1: senior living facilities. I wish we had like some type
Speaker 1: of facilities that will really help people, right, because we
Speaker 1: have short term care where you might go in if
Speaker 1: you have a psychotic break and they'll keep you for
Speaker 1: seven to ten days in a hospital or facility. Because
Speaker 1: then it's like after that you have to go back
Speaker 1: and live at home, or you may have to go
Speaker 1: live at a hotel or find somewhere like that. So
Speaker 1: I think we need more like wellness centers where it's
Speaker 1: like long term care, because even when you look at
Speaker 1: it like rehab facilities, rehab facilities won't really touch patients
Speaker 1: who are dealing with severe mental illness because you gotta
Speaker 1: get clean first, as they say, then you can deal
Speaker 1: with the mental health issues. Because I don't think, you know,
Speaker 1: we need the hospitals or you know, the mental health
Speaker 1: institutions like they used to say that we're you know,
Speaker 1: run by state governments, because I don't think it was
Speaker 1: a lot that was happening from a wellness perspective that
Speaker 1: really helped people kind of assimilate back into society. They
Speaker 1: just kept you on meds all the time, right, And
Speaker 1: so it's just so much work that needs to be done.
Speaker 1: That's why, like we need so much money and resources.
Speaker 1: And the other thing too, is like you're starting your alliance,
Speaker 1: we need to come together, pool our resources and join forces,
Speaker 1: especially in communities of color. Let's build out these programs.
Speaker 1: Let's go you know a lot of businesses are like
Speaker 1: not in the same place that they were in from
Speaker 1: the pandemic. Let's go buy some hotels and turn those
Speaker 1: into long term care facilities for someone that might be
Speaker 1: thirty years old that has a severe mental illness, but
Speaker 1: we hire the doctors that can treat them there and
Speaker 1: have these activities. From a wellness perspective, like, that's what
Speaker 1: I think we need. I want to build stilence and
Speaker 1: shame wellness. We can, but you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: I think about that, like we don't have enough places,
Speaker 1: especially in our communities, to be able to care for
Speaker 1: our loved ones. And I know several families that have
Speaker 1: been affected because you ask about you know, if someone
Speaker 1: that has a mental illness kill somebody oftentimes, you know,
Speaker 1: we find the statistics show that people with severe mental
Speaker 1: illnesses aren't necessarily the ones going out doing the crimes, right,
Speaker 1: And then you see these mass murders in the first
Speaker 1: thing they want to say from a press perspective as oh,
Speaker 1: it was mental health and so yeah, they may have issues,
Speaker 1: but I want to just blame that on mental illness.
Speaker 1: What I have learned through my own experience is that
Speaker 1: people who have severe mental illness sometimes they will lash
Speaker 1: out to those closest to them, not necessarily strangers, right,
Speaker 1: And of course they are in their right frame of mind.
Speaker 1: So they do need the medication, but they also need talk, therapy, psychotherapy.
Speaker 1: It's just so much more to it. And then, especially
Speaker 1: black folks, it's a lot of pent up trauma that
Speaker 1: we have not dealt with even as a culture. And
Speaker 1: then you talk about the last year and how we
Speaker 1: see black and brown babies getting shot right in front
Speaker 1: of us men and women. Now, it's a lot that
Speaker 1: we have to process. And so if they aren't taking
Speaker 1: mental health seriously now, I mean, then I hope they
Speaker 1: are now because we are still hurting as a culture
Speaker 1: and as a people. And even with the pandemic, y'all,
Speaker 1: Like so many people pass away and we have to
Speaker 1: watch their funerals like on YouTube. Yeah, so a lot
Speaker 1: of I've seen black men who've lost parents and grandparents
Speaker 1: and people in their families. They still have that pent up,
Speaker 1: not necessarily in therapy, they're not dealing with it, so
Speaker 1: that grief is taken a toll on them. So even
Speaker 1: more reason why we as a people need more resources
Speaker 1: in our community. And it's a society at large, all right,
Speaker 1: We got more with shanty Dos coming up next. It's
Speaker 1: the world most dangerous. Want to show the breakfast club
Speaker 1: piece of the planning Charlomagne and God Angelie Yee here
Speaker 1: got the Good Sisters. Shanty dives from silence to shame
Speaker 1: in the building envy. I have a friend of mine
Speaker 1: that says, one of the most difficult things are committing
Speaker 1: somebody when they feel like there's something off. And I
Speaker 1: was going to ask you, like, how hard is that
Speaker 1: and how what can somebody do? Because you know, your
Speaker 1: family's the closest. If your family says, hey, this person,
Speaker 1: this man and woman needs to get help, they're saying,
Speaker 1: it's so difficult to get somebody committed into a hospital.
Speaker 1: Why is that? It is very different than you might
Speaker 1: be able to speak more to this. But oftentimes, again
Speaker 1: when they're not in their right frame of mind, or
Speaker 1: if they're not on medications, of course they're not gonna
Speaker 1: want to go somewhere against their will because in their mind,
Speaker 1: they don't think anything is wrong with them, you know,
Speaker 1: the government is following them, or different things are happening,
Speaker 1: or that's just what it is in their minds, you know,
Speaker 1: And that's probably due to the chemical imbalance, right and
Speaker 1: and sometimes you know, like I know, from a personal perspective,
Speaker 1: someone that I knew ended up using I think it
Speaker 1: was called K twelve, that synthetic weed. And so if
Speaker 1: you already have a chemical imbalance, that's going to have
Speaker 1: an adverse effect. I'm not a psychiatrist, but I do
Speaker 1: know enough about when you introduce these foreign substances into
Speaker 1: your brain and you already have different things going on,
Speaker 1: it's going to make for a perfect storm. And so
Speaker 1: it's really difficult being able to commit someone that doesn't
Speaker 1: want to. But you know, there are different things. Um
Speaker 1: different states have different laws, or you can do involuntary commitment,
Speaker 1: you know, and get the judges to do I guess
Speaker 1: whatever they need to allow the family to have the
Speaker 1: person committed. But it is very difficult, and I think
Speaker 1: some of those laws need to change too to make
Speaker 1: it easier. And then just from an emotional perspective, you
Speaker 1: know what it is having to call the police or
Speaker 1: on your son or daughter or mother or like, it
Speaker 1: takes such a huge toll on the family. I mean,
Speaker 1: had a friend who committed suicide last year, and like
Speaker 1: you know, when we call to get the wellness check done,
Speaker 1: they told us that they couldn't do any checks because
Speaker 1: the person hadn't hurt anyone or hurt themselves yeah, which
Speaker 1: is like, so what do you do then? And then
Speaker 1: she ended up committing to us the closest, telling them
Speaker 1: this person needs to be checked on it, and they like, oh,
Speaker 1: well wait till they hurt themselves or hurt somebody. That
Speaker 1: sounds crazy. Yeah, it does sound crazy, and it puts
Speaker 1: us in a very tough position. And I'm sure that
Speaker 1: family member is now blaming themselves, but they try to
Speaker 1: do everything that they could do. So it's just a
Speaker 1: lot that still needs to happen. I'm glad people are
Speaker 1: talking talking about it, and you see people on I
Speaker 1: G Live and all the press that mental health is
Speaker 1: getting now. But again, we got to break it down
Speaker 1: and really look at it from a family perspective and
Speaker 1: really feel like, what can we do to really have
Speaker 1: some you know, rules in place and some facilities in
Speaker 1: place from a long term care perspective, because we don't
Speaker 1: even know what the after effects are going to be
Speaker 1: from this pandemic. Oh none of us are. What would
Speaker 1: you say to artists who are struggling with being open
Speaker 1: about their scruggles? Um, what I would say to music
Speaker 1: artists And we've been doing a lot of work you know,
Speaker 1: with silence and shame. And yeah, so for artists first
Speaker 1: and foremost, I would say, lean into your creativity. Um,
Speaker 1: stay off of social media so much because sometimes scrolling
Speaker 1: through that timeline and seeing, you know, what people who
Speaker 1: might have, you know, a lot of money are doing,
Speaker 1: and you're comparing yourself to an artist who's been out
Speaker 1: in this season. Like, stopped comparing yourself to everybody else.
Speaker 1: And incorporate wellness into your daily regiment and it's okay
Speaker 1: to cry. And if you're having a tough time, and
Speaker 1: then obviously therapy, you know, hap he goes a long way.
Speaker 1: Excuse me if you can find the right therapist. And
Speaker 1: I do know sometimes it's tough because you want somebody
Speaker 1: that kind of can relate to you, and it may
Speaker 1: be a little bit tougher because what is it. I
Speaker 1: think like less than five percent of all clinicians are
Speaker 1: clinicians in color. But just try to lean into it
Speaker 1: as much as you can. And the other thing I'll
Speaker 1: say is don't use recreational drugs or alcohol as a
Speaker 1: coping mechanism. Now, I can't tell you what to do
Speaker 1: in your downtime. You know you want to smoke one
Speaker 1: you know, smoke one with your boys, but don't do
Speaker 1: it because something is wrong. I mean, also take good
Speaker 1: care of your physical health too, because mental and physical
Speaker 1: go hand in hand. I was just physically sick like
Speaker 1: a month ago. I thought I had COVID. Thank god
Speaker 1: it wasn't, but I had another severe infection and then
Speaker 1: it started playing with my mental psyche. And I'm proud
Speaker 1: to say I'm back in therapy now. I had stopped
Speaker 1: going for a while, but I felt myself kind of
Speaker 1: to ring and I couldn't really find that joy that
Speaker 1: I needed. So artists need to lean into wellness from
Speaker 1: a holistic perspective and incorporated on a daily basis. And
Speaker 1: you had mentioned Sony. Shout out to John Platt and
Speaker 1: Sony Music Publishing. They made us a part of their
Speaker 1: social justice fund, and so we're creating what's called the
Speaker 1: Soundtrack of Mental Health. Now, you did a panel with
Speaker 1: me like two years ago, because I've been using that brand.
Speaker 1: And essentially we're gonna do sixty minute training so anybody
Speaker 1: that works in the music industry can get these trainings
Speaker 1: for free. We'll have trainings around understanding mental health, substance abuse,
Speaker 1: self care, stress management, suicide, prevention training and so will
Speaker 1: it save everybody's life, We don't know, but hopefully it
Speaker 1: will start to save some lives. And you don't know
Speaker 1: what you don't know, right, So if we can educate
Speaker 1: you and at least inform you, inform your family around
Speaker 1: how to identify mental illness, how to identify the signs,
Speaker 1: how to get treatment, and provide them with the resources.
Speaker 1: And you know, shout out to music cares. They do
Speaker 1: a lot in terms of substance abuse, and they've really
Speaker 1: added mental health until the phone now and a lot
Speaker 1: of artists, especially artists of color, didn't even know those
Speaker 1: resources existed for music here. So I want to make
Speaker 1: sure we're pushing people there as well. But we just
Speaker 1: were trying to do this work. But we need to
Speaker 1: raise more money because we got to hire facilitators and stuff.
Speaker 1: So that's why you know, today is a big deal
Speaker 1: for us with national silence a shame day as we
Speaker 1: continue to raise funds around music and mental health. And
Speaker 1: y'all have your virtual galla, we do what is that?
Speaker 1: What is the virtual gala gonna be? So somebody I
Speaker 1: might be sitting next to I think, is getting on it.
Speaker 1: Thank you, I really do no, I do appreciate the
Speaker 1: honor like that means a lot because I never set
Speaker 1: out to be a mental health advocate. I was just
Speaker 1: telling my story. One of my colleagues, Hillary Dunson, was like,
Speaker 1: y'all need to do a gala, and you know, we're
Speaker 1: five years in as an organization, and I was like, well,
Speaker 1: it's COVID. How are you gonna do a gala? And
Speaker 1: so she's like just doing virtually, and so I got
Speaker 1: on my phone and started texting people and I was like,
Speaker 1: thinking of I really put a lot of thought into
Speaker 1: who I wanted to honor. So of course you were
Speaker 1: one of the first people because of how you use
Speaker 1: your platform, and so you are getting the silence of shame,
Speaker 1: brave award for being brave for opening up every day
Speaker 1: and you are so vulnerable and transparent now on social media,
Speaker 1: and you don't know how much that's helping people. So
Speaker 1: I thank you for that. We're also honoring Michelle Williams.
Speaker 1: She's done a lot in terms of using her platform
Speaker 1: and talking about her depression, even from when she was
Speaker 1: twelve years old, and so I honor her. I was
Speaker 1: just talking to her the other day and she was
Speaker 1: just saying, how you know people thought that it all
Speaker 1: came about, you know, when she was in Destiny Show,
Speaker 1: and she was like, no, I felt with this since
Speaker 1: I was much younger. So her being vulnerable to even
Speaker 1: share that totally makes her a great candidate to be honored.
Speaker 1: We're honoring Spirit. She is amazing. She's an African American
Speaker 1: female clinician in the Atlanta area but does a lot
Speaker 1: of national work, and she talks a lot about trauma
Speaker 1: in the black community and boundaries and that sort of thing.
Speaker 1: So we're honoring her. And then last one, at least
Speaker 1: D Nice because he shines such a light on our
Speaker 1: community and really helped our mental health because there were
Speaker 1: nights where I was like in the crib alone and
Speaker 1: it's almost like I felt the walls closing in on me.
Speaker 1: But then D Nice would be live and he was
Speaker 1: shouting everybody out like you were in the club, and
Speaker 1: you know, and getting up and moving and dancing. I mean,
Speaker 1: that's a part of wellness in and of itself. And
Speaker 1: then we have appearances. Common gave this really great opening
Speaker 1: for the gala, a very personal, um and passionate story,
Speaker 1: and we have performances from Lacrai and from Anthony Hamilton
Speaker 1: and it's just gonna be fantastic. Www dot Silence to
Speaker 1: Shame dot com and register you know this morning, or
Speaker 1: you can catch it on our YouTube page. It's gonna
Speaker 1: be live streamed on our YouTube page at Silence to
Speaker 1: Shame TV. Or go to Instagram at Silence to Shame
Speaker 1: and check it out. And we're probably gonna have it
Speaker 1: on Facebook. And we just got connected through all. I
Speaker 1: want to shout out the Mental Health Coalition. Kenneth Cole
Speaker 1: is also a part of the GALA and he has
Speaker 1: this fantastic coalition where he put over thirty organizations that
Speaker 1: are already doing the work and so they're doing so
Speaker 1: much on their part to support us, and so I
Speaker 1: want to make sure that you know, you guys utilize
Speaker 1: Mental Health Coalition as a resource as well. Yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: part of that with the mental mental Health and lines.
Speaker 1: I'm actually I just did something with kenn of me
Speaker 1: and doctor Alphie. Oh yeah for the one to one. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the one to one yeah, And I'm actually doing it today.
Speaker 1: All right. We got more with Shanty Dos coming up next.
Speaker 1: It's the World Most Dangerous Morning to show the Breakfast
Speaker 1: club piece of the planning Charlomagne and God Angelie. Yee,
Speaker 1: here we got the good sisters shanty doves from silence
Speaker 1: to shame in the building. How is your work in
Speaker 1: the mental health space helped you along your journey because
Speaker 1: you've gone through a lot, losing your system things like that.
Speaker 1: That's a great question. I was introduced to this notion
Speaker 1: called the wounded Healer from my pastor, doctor Warnock, and
Speaker 1: I still feel like I'm going through it. That's why
Speaker 1: I am back in therapy. I am also probably getting
Speaker 1: ready to get back on my antidepressants because even though
Speaker 1: things are going good, the foundation is starting to roll now.
Speaker 1: I saw have mornings where I struggle and I just
Speaker 1: can't get happy again. And I'm not embarrassed to take
Speaker 1: medication if I need it, And so doing this work
Speaker 1: has helped me by being able to pour back into people.
Speaker 1: But I also have to be careful because I'm re
Speaker 1: traumatizing myself kind of every time i share the story
Speaker 1: about wanting to take my own life. So I have to,
Speaker 1: you know, really incorporate breaks and walks into my day,
Speaker 1: Like once I can get through today and the Gala,
Speaker 1: I'm taking two days off and the rest of the weekend,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go see my mother because I haven't been
Speaker 1: able to hug her since the pandemic started. But I
Speaker 1: have to be really intentional about the breaks that I
Speaker 1: take because this is heavy work and people see the posts,
Speaker 1: but they don't know what goes on like behind the scenes.
Speaker 1: And like I mentioned, it's an honor to be able
Speaker 1: to help so many people and strangers. But I also
Speaker 1: have to practice piece because sometimes I internalize everybody else's
Speaker 1: problems and everybody else's trauma, so I have to work
Speaker 1: twice as hard on my own mental health. But it's okay.
Speaker 1: I feel like I was built for this. I'm the
Speaker 1: EVP of my own you know body, if you will,
Speaker 1: I'm the executive vice president of Shantidas, So I have
Speaker 1: to take care of myself, right, That's right. You know
Speaker 1: you said you could take yourself off medicine. When do
Speaker 1: you know when it's okay to stop taking medicine? That's
Speaker 1: a great question, and I will, I would say, because
Speaker 1: I don't want to give any medical advice like that.
Speaker 1: But you got to talk to your doctor and talk
Speaker 1: to your therapists and see how they feel like you're
Speaker 1: doing and how you're progressing. And then when you do it,
Speaker 1: you're not supposed to just stop cold turkey taking it.
Speaker 1: You have to wean yourself off of it. That's the
Speaker 1: mistake I may, Envy. I thought I was better after
Speaker 1: like four or five months, and I just stopped it
Speaker 1: brought me back down to a low. So you need
Speaker 1: to be able to have a real plan and strategy
Speaker 1: from your doctor, your PCP as well as your psychiatrist
Speaker 1: to wean yourself off of it, because the worst thing
Speaker 1: you can do is just stop taking it cold turkey.
Speaker 1: Give them the website they can donate to Silence to Shame. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so the website is www dot Silence for shame dot com.
Speaker 1: And also you can text the words Silence sil e
Speaker 1: n CE to seven O seven oh seven. Oh. Make
Speaker 1: sure y'all tune in tonight for the gala. It's gonna
Speaker 1: be turned. We have a lot of great people, but
Speaker 1: more importantly, we're gonna go out here in silence of
Speaker 1: shame and save some blies. That's right right, Well, the
Speaker 1: shanty Dos appreciate you again. I love y'all, love you,
Speaker 1: and thank you Envy for doing the dance. To donate
Speaker 1: if you want to do it again, and the month
Speaker 1: of May we can jump on. We're still raising money

Speaker 1: Shame dot com. I want to thank Silence to Shame
Speaker 1: for honoring me for them for the work they feel
Speaker 1: like I do in the mental health space. So thank you,
Speaker 1: Silence to Shame. Now we got rumor report coming up.
Speaker 1: What we're talking about, I guess you're about to tell
Speaker 1: us somebody's getting cancel Prince Charming. Okay, listen, oh report
Speaker 1: got breast club Well, Disneylands revamped Snow White Ride is
Speaker 1: now perhaps the target for cancel culture. You know why
Speaker 1: because Prince Charming actually kiss snow White without her consent
Speaker 1: while she was sleeping. You'll leave me alone, you let
Speaker 1: me alone. This is silly. Now, you don't think this
Speaker 1: is silly. The whole point she was dead, teaching kids
Speaker 1: are kissing when it hasn't been established. If both parties
Speaker 1: are willing to engage, it's not okay. But they were
Speaker 1: telling the Prince to kiss her because they knew that
Speaker 1: the kids from the Prince would awaken her. Everybody. I
Speaker 1: just watched No White the other day. I don't know why,
Speaker 1: but it didn't. My daughters were watching something, but the
Speaker 1: dwarfs and everybody were crying because they thought she was
Speaker 1: dead and they didn't know if the Prince could revive her.
Speaker 1: And the Prince kissed her, she woke up and everybody
Speaker 1: lived happily. Of after, everybody was happy. Well, this ride
Speaker 1: at Disneyland right now is an issue for some people,
Speaker 1: and they're saying that because the ride features that kiss
Speaker 1: from Prince Charming, it shouldn't have done that. I don't believe.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I think you made this whole serious.
Speaker 1: Your sources, Where did this come from? The San Francisco
Speaker 1: Gate review, Lord Mercy nobody got nothing else better to
Speaker 1: talk about San Francisco. They said, why not reimagine ending
Speaker 1: and keeping with the spirit of the movie in snow
Speaker 1: White's place in the Disney Cannon. But that avoids this problem.
Speaker 1: How else is she gonna wake up? It was? Wasn't
Speaker 1: it the fact that the prince was her true love
Speaker 1: and she could only be awakened by her true love
Speaker 1: or something like that. Didn't you say that that you
Speaker 1: can't give CPR anymore? Who said, Dad, I could have
Speaker 1: sworn you said that. There was this whole big thing
Speaker 1: about not being able to give CPR anymore. I think
Speaker 1: you had an issue with that. I'm telling you, what
Speaker 1: are you having that conversation? No, you were right up
Speaker 1: here on the radio. I hope we can flash back
Speaker 1: to that. I hope so too, because I don't remember that.
Speaker 1: All right. Now, let's talk about Tristan Thompson. According to reports,
Speaker 1: he's hired lawyers to shoot down these new cheating allegations
Speaker 1: from Sydney Chase and Instagram model who was on No
Speaker 1: Jumper and said this Sydney, how was Tristan Thompson's It
Speaker 1: was a peekaboo, but Babby it was good hold on,
Speaker 1: hold on, So Tristan Thompson's uncut? I don't know, Hey,
Speaker 1: then what are you doing? Are you ruining? Why? What
Speaker 1: are you doing? He told me he was not in
Speaker 1: a relationship anymore, So I said, okay, this was Daniel
Speaker 1: remember okay. Well, she has since apologized for saying that,
Speaker 1: but she also is saying it's true, and she also
Speaker 1: said she did not get a cease and desist from anyone.
Speaker 1: She said, the articles are giving false information. Let's this
Speaker 1: be a lesson to not let anyone, no matter the
Speaker 1: money or fame they have, shut you down or turnish
Speaker 1: your name. I hope we do suit him, I really do.
Speaker 1: I hope we sue the hell out of him, because
Speaker 1: you know, I hate these people that are go on
Speaker 1: these podcasts and say anything just because they know it'll
Speaker 1: probably end up being a headline. I dyes, he should
Speaker 1: sue the hell out there. Right. Well, we'll see what happens.
Speaker 1: She meant like uncircumcised. Why does that interest you? Because
Speaker 1: when you played that clip the first time, I thought
Speaker 1: you meant like I thought they were saying, like he's uncut,
Speaker 1: like he's raw and unfiltered. Then it just hit me,
Speaker 1: just like, I don't be paying attention to them chicks
Speaker 1: when they talking. Then I heard just now I'm like, oh,
Speaker 1: you mean he's uncircumcised. Never mind, so you alright shut up?
Speaker 1: All right? Now, let's talk about Stacy Abrams. Who knew
Speaker 1: that Stacy Abrams also writes romance novels, and they're gonna
Speaker 1: be actually printing her out of print books. They're getting
Speaker 1: a brand new shelf life. So her first three books,
Speaker 1: Rules of Engagement, The Art of Desire, and Power of
Speaker 1: Persuasion have been out of print for years, but now
Speaker 1: they're going to be coming back out on Berkeley and
Speaker 1: imprint of Penguin Random House. We knew about that. We
Speaker 1: asked her about that when she came to the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 1: A lot of people didn't know this though, because I
Speaker 1: see people being like, who knew? We gotta get Stacey
Speaker 1: Abams on lip service. But she said, as my first novels,
Speaker 1: they remain incredibly special to me. The characters and their
Speaker 1: adventures are what I wish to read as a young
Speaker 1: black woman's stories that showcase women of color as nuance,
Speaker 1: determined and exciting. And so if you haven't got a
Speaker 1: chance to read those, now you can all right. Will
Speaker 1: Smith is making a YouTube docuseriies about getting in shape.
Speaker 1: I'm sure you guys saw the post of him talking
Speaker 1: about his dad bod Well. He's now starring in an
Speaker 1: unscripted series called Best Shape of My Life. According to
Speaker 1: Entertainment Tonight, it's a six part docu series following him
Speaker 1: as he tries to get back in the best shape
Speaker 1: of his life. It'll also feature guest stars like professional athletes,
Speaker 1: health and fitness experts, and some other YouTube content creators
Speaker 1: who will help them out. Listen, it's hard, man, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. Once you get to a certain age,
Speaker 1: like you know, even if you maintain a regular workout routine.
Speaker 1: I don't know why. It's just some areas where you know,
Speaker 1: they just get fluffy. Yeah, your metabolism slows down. It's
Speaker 1: just not as easy to lose that weight. It's a pandemic.
Speaker 1: A lot of us, myself included, have gained weight and
Speaker 1: are like, Okay, we gotta get back out there and
Speaker 1: get it back together. It's not easy. And then it
Speaker 1: sucks when you're over fifty, right, because you can't just
Speaker 1: go get the surgery because you take Why can't you
Speaker 1: take a little too longer to heal right at fifteen,
Speaker 1: getting cut open at fifty for no reason. All right, Well,
Speaker 1: Will Smith and Alicia Keys will also be getting their
Speaker 1: own original series that will lead the way for the
Speaker 1: handful of shows that they're launching. So Alicia Keys as well.

Speaker 1: with all these YouTube originals. They have the megos. They're
Speaker 1: doing a docu series called Ice Cold with Hip Hop Jewelry,
Speaker 1: exploring the serious issues that surround the racial inequity and America.
Speaker 1: We talk very interesting. We talk like YouTube not the
Speaker 1: biggest network in the world. It is, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like God bless all the TV networks, but
Speaker 1: there is no bigger network than YouTube. There's nobody getting
Speaker 1: more eyeballs on them than YouTube's and it only makes
Speaker 1: sense for YouTube to be doing original program all right,
Speaker 1: and Tammy Roman, it's revealing that her daughter came out
Speaker 1: to her as bisexual via text message. Now, Jazz Anderson
Speaker 1: is her daughter, and she has her show in the Mix.
Speaker 1: She's a co host on that show on Fox Soul,
Speaker 1: and she was talking about using her platform and coming
Speaker 1: out as bisexual. Here's what she said. I am bisexual.
Speaker 1: I do. I got myself as a bisexual female in
Speaker 1: twenty twenty. I've been with females and I've been with
Speaker 1: male all right, well, Tammy Roman and response has said
Speaker 1: that she was hurt that her daughter came out via
Speaker 1: text message. Here's what she said on her own Fox
Speaker 1: So show. Get into it with t. S. Madison trying
Speaker 1: to sound like I'm not supportive of her journey and
Speaker 1: her living her truth, but I really want advice on
Speaker 1: how as a parent do I do that when that's
Speaker 1: not what I was brought up on. I'm still trying
Speaker 1: to educate myself and learn about the LGBT community, and
Speaker 1: I in no way want to come off as homophobic
Speaker 1: because I'm not. In all honesty, I cried, I was hurt.
Speaker 1: That wasn't what I envisioned from my daughter. And then
Speaker 1: when she chose to come out. She texts me, that's real.
Speaker 1: Tammy didn't say nothing wrong. That's her truth. You're a parent.
Speaker 1: You grew up and how she felt. That's how you felt.
Speaker 1: You grew up loving men. That's what you know. You
Speaker 1: have a daughter, you want to share those same experiences
Speaker 1: with her, and you find out she's gig doesn't like
Speaker 1: what you like. I can easily see how that could
Speaker 1: confuse you as a parent. And Tammy says she wants advice,
Speaker 1: she wants to be educated. I don't say how you
Speaker 1: can shame someone looking to learn. And she should be
Speaker 1: upset that some big news like that was sent to
Speaker 1: her in a text message. You would get mad if
Speaker 1: your child shared any huge news about themselves like that,
Speaker 1: you know, via text with you pick up the phone,
Speaker 1: call me FaceTime, you come see me something? All right? Well,
Speaker 1: that is your room of report. I'm angela ye, and

Speaker 1: Ain't too much goddamn Manna's Let the record show Charlomagne,
Speaker 1: the God, uncle, Charlotte, brother, Lenard, whatever you want to
Speaker 1: call me, is on record is saying the greatest threat
Speaker 1: to this country is and always will be old white
Speaker 1: men in politics. Okay. See, the great extraterrestrial philosopher Thanos
Speaker 1: said it perfectly when he said, as long as there
Speaker 1: are those who remember what was, there will always be
Speaker 1: those who cannot accept what can be. That right, there
Speaker 1: is old white male politicians in a nutshell on both sides. Okay,
Speaker 1: I don't trust any of them because they are used
Speaker 1: to being at the top of this cast system in America.
Speaker 1: And one thing about power, you don't want to relinquish
Speaker 1: it when you've had it. And trust me when I
Speaker 1: tell you that these old white males in politics see
Speaker 1: two thousand and forty around the corner, and they are
Speaker 1: losing their minds because of it. What it's two thousand
Speaker 1: and forty. Well, white Americans are projected to be less
Speaker 1: than fifty percent of the population. Don't think for one
Speaker 1: second that fear of a black and brown planet isn't
Speaker 1: making old white men whose their minds. Trust me, if
Speaker 1: there were some infinity stones out there to be collected,
Speaker 1: they would be looking for them right now so they
Speaker 1: can snap off black and brown asses back to wherever
Speaker 1: the hell we came from. Okay, if they could erased
Speaker 1: us from history, they absolutely would, case in point what
Speaker 1: they are currently trying to do with the sixteen nineteen project.
Speaker 1: If you have never read The New York Times sixteen
Speaker 1: nineteen project, do yourself the biggest favor and go do that. Okay,
Speaker 1: read it, listen to the podcast, you know, take it
Speaker 1: in however you can. It came out in twenty nineteen
Speaker 1: on the four hundred anniversary of the arrival of the
Speaker 1: first enslaved Africans to America, Virginia, to be exact in
Speaker 1: the sixteen nineteen project accurately depicted the consequences of slavery
Speaker 1: and the contributions of black people in this country, slothing
Speaker 1: the cole hand of Jones, dropping the clues bomx from
Speaker 1: the coh handed Jones for writing something so impactful that
Speaker 1: it has made its way into American classrooms. Okay, teach
Speaker 1: the truth to the youth. Let them know we built
Speaker 1: this country for free, and this country owes us for
Speaker 1: the work we put in. Okay, and you know how
Speaker 1: I know the sixteen nineteen project is the truth because
Speaker 1: the white man is trying to stop it. Okay, Yes,
Speaker 1: with all that's going on in America, as fragile as
Speaker 1: America is right now, Mitch McConnell and forty others Senate
Speaker 1: Republicans wrote a letter the federal education officials to drop
Speaker 1: a proposed effort to prioritize history education programs that address
Speaker 1: systemic racism. They call it a politicized and divisive agenda.
Speaker 1: They say families did not ask for this divisive nonsense.
Speaker 1: Voters didn't vote for it. Americans never decided our children
Speaker 1: should be taught that our country is inherently evil. Oh,
Speaker 1: this is good stuff. Okay. The reason it's good stuff
Speaker 1: is because when you're here with these folks is saying,
Speaker 1: you see why they never taught the enslave to read
Speaker 1: or write, and why they would punish you if they
Speaker 1: caught you reading or writing, because they don't want you
Speaker 1: to know the truth. And as long as old white
Speaker 1: men can tell you his story instead of accurate history,
Speaker 1: he can keep his foot on our Next, let's start
Speaker 1: with Mitch McConnell. Okay, on Monday, he said that he
Speaker 1: doesn't think sixteen nineteen is one of the most important
Speaker 1: points in US history. Listen, this is about American history
Speaker 1: and the most important dates in American history. And my view,
Speaker 1: and I think most Americans think dates like seventeen seventy six,
Speaker 1: the Declaration of Independence, seventeen eighty seven, the Constitution eighteen
Speaker 1: sixty one to eighteen sixty five, the Civil War, or
Speaker 1: it's sort of the basic tenets of American history. There
Speaker 1: are a lot of exotic notions about what are the
Speaker 1: most important points in American history. I simply disagree with
Speaker 1: the notion that the New York Times laid out there
Speaker 1: that the year sixteen nineteen was one of those years.
Speaker 1: I disagree, I was sixteen eighteen not important. Okay. If
Speaker 1: i'd slavery, the US would not have become a leading
Speaker 1: economic power, all right. That continent became the world's largest
Speaker 1: commodity without forced migration and forced labor. That doesn't happen.
Speaker 1: So yes, that year has to be probably the most
Speaker 1: important year because the work of the enslaved is what
Speaker 1: established the USA as the world economic power. Now, Ray
Speaker 1: Garofalo was arguing against the sixteen nineteen project, or what
Speaker 1: he calls the divisive teaching on race, and he said this,
Speaker 1: if you're having a discussion on slavery, then you can
Speaker 1: talk about everything dealing with slavery, the good, the bad,
Speaker 1: the ugly. There's no good to slavery, though, Well, then
Speaker 1: whatever whatever the case may be, there is no other case. Ray.
Speaker 1: That's it, period, full stop. If you find the good enslavery,
Speaker 1: it's because you're only looking at it from the perspective
Speaker 1: of the slave master. If you the slave master wouldn't
Speaker 1: trade places with the enslaved even for a day, there
Speaker 1: is no good in it. Period. Okay, this stuff gets better, man.
Speaker 1: You had a couple of Gelp lawmakers pushing back on
Speaker 1: the sixteen nineteen project, and they decided to address the
Speaker 1: three Fish Compromise. You know the three fish compromise where
Speaker 1: they counted every enslaved black persons three fifths of a
Speaker 1: of a human. Okay, this is a Republican representative named
Speaker 1: Ron Hanks discussing the three Fish compromise. Listen, well, actually
Speaker 1: have him talking about a jew boy. I know what
Speaker 1: I'm doing. Lynch might be a good thing for what
Speaker 1: I'm about to say. No, just kid, ain't play it again. Please,
Speaker 1: being called mister Lynch might be a good thing for
Speaker 1: what I'm about to say. No, just kid, ain't. That's right.
Speaker 1: Let's stop right there. The reason I wanted to stop
Speaker 1: right there and don't get to him talking about the
Speaker 1: three Fish compromise because there's nothing to talk about when
Speaker 1: you're making jokes about lynching. Okay, these are all lowmakers,
Speaker 1: ladies and ghettlemen, old white males and politics who start
Speaker 1: off their points making jokes about lynching. But according to
Speaker 1: Tim Scott, Kamala Harris, and O. G. Jim Clyburne, America
Speaker 1: is not a racist country. Okay. My last old white
Speaker 1: male politician I'm bringing to this dand is justin Lafferty, Okay.
Speaker 1: He is a lawmaker in Tennessee who is arguing that
Speaker 1: the Three Fish Compromise should be held up is a
Speaker 1: positive but bitter part of US history, and that the
Speaker 1: bill would prohibit critical race theory from being taught in
Speaker 1: Tennessee public schools. Listen. The Three Fish Compromise was a
Speaker 1: direct effort to ensure that Southern states never got the
Speaker 1: population necessary to continue the practice of slavery everywhere else
Speaker 1: in the country. We've got nine state representatives by limiting
Speaker 1: the number of population in the count they specifically limited
Speaker 1: the number of representatives that would be available in the
Speaker 1: slave holding states, and they did it for the purpose
Speaker 1: of ending slavery well before a civil war. Do we
Speaker 1: talk about that? I don't hear that anywhere in this
Speaker 1: conversation across the country. I don't know how we've gotten here,
Speaker 1: but talking about incorporating another view of history while ignoring
Speaker 1: the very writings that we have access to is no
Speaker 1: way to go about its. Start with the truth, start
Speaker 1: with what happens, start with how we got here, and
Speaker 1: then let's move forward. Justin they are telling the truth,
Speaker 1: but you can't handle the truth. You don't want the
Speaker 1: real history of America told. None of y'all do, because
Speaker 1: you know, then you know folks will start asking for
Speaker 1: what they're old this your uncle Chaulat talking. I think
Speaker 1: they're trying to revise history just so they don't have
Speaker 1: to have the conversation about reparations, because they know they Oh,
Speaker 1: it's just intellectually dishonest to say you want to truth
Speaker 1: of American history but then want to dismiss the sixteen
Speaker 1: nineteen project. You can't heal what you don't reveal. Okay.
Speaker 1: A country really invested in healing would tell the truth
Speaker 1: about this history, acknowledge the truth, and then planning with
Speaker 1: the people a wronged on how to fix it. Okay.
Speaker 1: Salute to the good brother Antonio Parkinson. He's the chairman
Speaker 1: of the Black Caucus in the Tennessee House. He worded
Speaker 1: it perfect when he said, laugh for these comments were offensive,
Speaker 1: and he said, and I quote, it is impossible to
Speaker 1: defend policies that protect slavery and fail to account for
Speaker 1: the full humanity of black people. I don't care if
Speaker 1: his policy or how you're counting heads. There is nothing
Speaker 1: good about slavery. That's it, full stop. Nothing else to discuss.
Speaker 1: Why are all politicians lying. Okay, you got black elected
Speaker 1: officials saying America is not a racist country. And to them,
Speaker 1: I say, well, what does this huh? You got old
Speaker 1: white male politicians telling us there was good aspects to slavery,
Speaker 1: the three Fifths Compromise should be held up as a
Speaker 1: positive in sixteen nineteen. Just wasn't that important of a year. Well,
Speaker 1: if sixteen nineteen wasn't that important of a year, why
Speaker 1: the hell are y'all going so hard to stop people
Speaker 1: from teaching about it? Please? Let Chelsea Handler give Mitch McConnell,
Speaker 1: Ray Garoffalo, Ron Hanks, and Justin Lafferty the biggest he
Speaker 1: haw he haw heehaw. That is way too much. Dan Maynetz,
Speaker 1: Gaffy Griffin, you got anything you want to add to this,
Speaker 1: Please give this giant jar male the biggest heahaw. That's all, clock,
Speaker 1: I asked clock. Oh, Chris, Chris? Why does Chris is
Speaker 1: so crazy? He's so crazy? Okay? Is that it? That's
Speaker 1: all you think? That's all all right? What Charlot may
Speaker 1: thank you for that donkey of the day. That's right.
Speaker 1: And up next we gotta ask ye okay, if you
Speaker 1: want to ask Angelie ye anything, reach out in touch

Speaker 1: Haul up now for asking? What's up as a breakfast club?
Speaker 1: And we are doing ask you where you can call
Speaker 1: us up eight hundred and five A five one oh
Speaker 1: five one and ask me anything you want to know.
Speaker 1: What could be relationships. It could be about work, it
Speaker 1: could be about friendship. Now we have someone on the line.
Speaker 1: Good morning, who's this? I like the morning? Okay, so
Speaker 1: I have a high school weeth heeart. So it's my
Speaker 1: baby fighter for six years now. About two years ago,
Speaker 1: it was about to move in, and then I found
Speaker 1: out that he has a two year old whom he
Speaker 1: apologized to that that it was irrelevant, it was a mistake, irrelevant.
Speaker 1: We tried again. Then I found that that the girl
Speaker 1: is pregnant. Again. Wow. In the same breath fighting out
Speaker 1: that she's pregnant, hare comes his new girlfriend posting him
Speaker 1: for his birthday. Ooh, you ain't got no boyfriend. Oh no,
Speaker 1: that's not my boyfriend. I just lead him to leave
Speaker 1: me alone. So right now we're going through a custody case.
Speaker 1: I just want to know what's the west, the best
Speaker 1: way to handle it, because he's not happy about that,
Speaker 1: even if he's the one who initiated the custody case.
Speaker 1: First of all, I wouldn't speak to him directly. I
Speaker 1: would have somebody that could be a mediator between the
Speaker 1: two of you so that you don't he cannot contact you,
Speaker 1: and y'all don't have to have conversations with each other
Speaker 1: right now, because it feels like it's too much. Right,
Speaker 1: But then I try not to have contact with him,
Speaker 1: but his new girl thinks as her place to make
Speaker 1: certain comments like telling my daughter to not tell me
Speaker 1: certain things because I'm gonna take her away from them.
Speaker 1: First of all, y'all are not married, You're irrelevant. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And the thing is, when it's affecting your child, that
Speaker 1: is the number one concern, right, Forget her, forget him.
Speaker 1: This is about your child and making sure that she's
Speaker 1: not in a bad position, making sure that she's growing
Speaker 1: up the right way, making sure that she's able to
Speaker 1: express herself, because I'm sure it's really confusing for her,
Speaker 1: and I'm sure that hurts you more than anything but
Speaker 1: also makes you angry. So that's not to do. That
Speaker 1: feels like something he should be checking, right, because that's
Speaker 1: his girl, and it feels like he shouldn't be allowing
Speaker 1: that to happen. If he cares about the child, forget
Speaker 1: about you. If he cares about your daughter together, that
Speaker 1: seems like it's really discussing and immature of him. And
Speaker 1: if I were you, I would make sure i'd document
Speaker 1: everything that's going on, everything that you do, and use
Speaker 1: that in court. That we have to talk to each other,
Speaker 1: and every time something happened, I will go there say
Speaker 1: what's happening because he tends to say that's not true.
Speaker 1: So that's what I've been doing, So I guess I've
Speaker 1: been doing the right. Thing is just annoyance, right, and
Speaker 1: probably I'm sure at times you want to vent, oh, yes,
Speaker 1: but you know, it's just disgusting because he messed up,
Speaker 1: he cheated on you, had two kids with somebody else
Speaker 1: on you, has a whole other girlfriend, do all the
Speaker 1: wrong things, but then has the nerve to treat you
Speaker 1: like this. It's disgusting and exactly to let this affect
Speaker 1: your child. And it's hard to always be the bigger person,
Speaker 1: especially when a child is involved, correct, And I try
Speaker 1: to do my best when it comes to her, But
Speaker 1: every time I go to him is like, you want
Speaker 1: to know my business? You're controlling. So I just don't
Speaker 1: speak to him at all, right, And you know one
Speaker 1: thing I will say, just make sure you're always talking
Speaker 1: to your daughter, always telling her how much you love
Speaker 1: her and letting her know that she could tell you anything.
Speaker 1: And if anything, I would try to get her somebody
Speaker 1: that she could talk to also, right now, just to
Speaker 1: help her cope and deal with everything and be able
Speaker 1: to express herself, and also help you learn the best
Speaker 1: ways to handle things, if any thing do you guys,
Speaker 1: did they order that you guys have to get mediation
Speaker 1: or some type of Um, we're currently going for mediation,
Speaker 1: but now it's going to go to the court because
Speaker 1: he doesn't want to agree to a certain things, right,
Speaker 1: Because it sounds like y'all need some counseling on how
Speaker 1: you guys can come together and co parent. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: think I'm gonna build back, right. Yeah, I would recommend
Speaker 1: that I know people that has done wonders for them,
Speaker 1: and so I know right now it's hard to see
Speaker 1: that bigger picture of down the line how things can
Speaker 1: possibly potentially improve because you're in the midst of it.
Speaker 1: But I do feel like somebody that is an outsider
Speaker 1: can come and help you guys learn to get the
Speaker 1: right tools to be able to deal with with each other,
Speaker 1: because you're gonna have to because he doesn't want to
Speaker 1: speak to me on a grown level, right, So you're
Speaker 1: gonna have to do that. Okay, Well, thank you Verymond.
Speaker 1: You're welcome, and I wish you the best of luck.
Speaker 1: I know it's not easy, it's not all right. All right,
Speaker 1: this is ask Ye and you can call us up
Speaker 1: right now eight hundred five eight five one oh five
Speaker 1: one if you have any questions. Ends I got to
Speaker 1: it's the breakfast Club. Some real advice with Angela gets
Speaker 1: ask Ye. What's up? Is to breakfast Club and we
Speaker 1: are in the middle of ask ye. Good morning. Who's
Speaker 1: this van Vanessa? Okay, Vanessa? What's your question this morning?
Speaker 1: I have a question. Um, so today is my boyfriend's
Speaker 1: birthday and he's asking for a birthday present. But you've
Speaker 1: been doin four years and he has never gotten anything.
Speaker 1: What is he? Jehovah witness? He was not? No, So
Speaker 1: what's his reason for never getting you a birthday present
Speaker 1: in four years? I don't know. I asked him. He
Speaker 1: always like shrugs it off or whatever, but Ye'll never
Speaker 1: get me. That's pretty thoughtless. Is that hurt your feelings?
Speaker 1: It does. That's a deeper conversation, it is. And I
Speaker 1: just feel like, um, I mean I want to get
Speaker 1: him something, but then again, like I have died, that's fight.
Speaker 1: I guess right, Well, I'm never a fan of moving
Speaker 1: out of spite. So if you want to get him something.
Speaker 1: I think that you should do that. But I think
Speaker 1: y'all really need to discuss this because if you've expressed
Speaker 1: to him that it bothers you that he's never got
Speaker 1: you a present, if it hurts your feelings, then he shouldn't.
Speaker 1: Does he get you things on other days? Like? Is
Speaker 1: he thoughtful? No? Girl? What is going on? I love him,
Speaker 1: but you know I'll get him a pressed your body
Speaker 1: just want to you know, I don't want to do
Speaker 1: as never got anyone. I mean like tifatat is not
Speaker 1: a good thing. But what is important is that you
Speaker 1: guys come to some type of understanding. I've dated guys
Speaker 1: who haven't been good in relationships, like I feel like
Speaker 1: before me, who did you used to date? And you
Speaker 1: kind of have to train them a little bit. Y'all
Speaker 1: have been together for four years. Yeah, so at this
Speaker 1: point you should be able to say anything to him,
Speaker 1: and I think something as small as I need you
Speaker 1: to be thoughtful. It's not that you need him to
Speaker 1: buy you a thousand dollars present, but you want him
Speaker 1: to show that you care. You want him to celebrate
Speaker 1: your birthday with you. You want him to surprise you,
Speaker 1: so to say when you tell him those things, like
Speaker 1: I said, off question, yeah no, and then the nerve
Speaker 1: to want something when he doesn't do that for you.
Speaker 1: I think that takes a lot of nerve to like that.
Speaker 1: Control girl. It is not about his sign, it's about
Speaker 1: who he is as a person. Do not use that
Speaker 1: as an excuse. But look, if you want to get
Speaker 1: him something, I would. But I feel like y'all really
Speaker 1: need to have this discussion, like I can't understand why
Speaker 1: you're a man would not want to do those things
Speaker 1: for you, and especially if you let him know I don't.
Speaker 1: This doesn't make me feel good that you don't celebrate
Speaker 1: me exactly, and that you don't yeah, please, And you know,
Speaker 1: maybe this would be you setting the tone also for
Speaker 1: what it is that you want him to do for you.
Speaker 1: You know you're leading by example. Look you see how
Speaker 1: you enjoyed this. And I got you a present just
Speaker 1: so you know I like gifts too, exactly. Hope. All right, Well,
Speaker 1: have a good single to Mayo anyway, all right, by bye, honey.
Speaker 1: She's imagine never getting your girl a present or never
Speaker 1: getting your man a gift. That doesn't even make sense.
Speaker 1: Well that was ask ye again. The number is eight
Speaker 1: hundred five eight five, one oh five one. If you
Speaker 1: ever want to ask me anything, I'm here to help. Now.
Speaker 1: I got rumors on the way, Yes, and Real Housewives
Speaker 1: of New York was on and our first ever black
Speaker 1: cast member, Ebeney K Williams, debut last night. We'll tell
Speaker 1: you what happened. That's right, club, This is the Rumor
Speaker 1: Report with Angela years Well. Shout out to our girl,
Speaker 1: Ebeney K Williams. She is the very first black cast
Speaker 1: member on the Real Housewives of New York City. It's
Speaker 1: been thirteen years that that show has been on and
Speaker 1: she made her debut last night. If you guys want
Speaker 1: to a little preview of what happened. Here she is
Speaker 1: talking about who she is. And my girl, Leah McSweeney
Speaker 1: is also on the show. So those are the two
Speaker 1: people I really would watch for. But we're mini hats. Professionally,
Speaker 1: I am a lawyer by tray, but I also work
Speaker 1: as a broadcaster. I currently host show Cover Vote, Black News.
Speaker 1: I think I'm the definition of a multi hyphenic. Ebany
Speaker 1: is pretty much the epitome of black girl magic. She
Speaker 1: is a lawyer, she's an AKA, she's a broadcaster. She
Speaker 1: took on the President, and she does this all while
Speaker 1: looking hottest, wearing lubatons. I attempted to watch you last night,
Speaker 1: but I honestly didn't know what the hell was going on,
Speaker 1: and I feared for I feared for Ebany's well being
Speaker 1: being surrounded by all those white women. I kept feeling
Speaker 1: like I was gonna have a panic attack. I was
Speaker 1: actually like, like scared for her. I don't know why.
Speaker 1: I can't feel like someone's gonna pop off. Well, she
Speaker 1: had on her Black Lives Matter mass, she had her
Speaker 1: Center Park five sweat shared with the names of the
Speaker 1: Center Park five. You know what I'm saying now. Sonia
Speaker 1: Morgan actually had an awkward moment where she was trying
Speaker 1: to quote welcome Ebeney Kay Williams. Here's how it went.
Speaker 1: If you notice, Yeah, my fish are every color. I
Speaker 1: have black, white, yellow, black, Yeah, by racial fish. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I feel Sonia is trying to connect on the racial
Speaker 1: diversity element of the moment, but I think the fish
Speaker 1: efforts is a bit lame. I gave her two points
Speaker 1: for trying. New episode of The Holding Court podcast with
Speaker 1: Ebney Kay Williams and Dustin Ross drops today on the
Speaker 1: Black Effect. iHeartRadio podcast Network everywhere you listen to podcasts subscribe.
Speaker 1: I know some of that had to be difficult for her.
Speaker 1: All right, now, this jay Z and NAS collaboration album
Speaker 1: looks like DJ Khalid and hit Boy are petitioning really
Speaker 1: hard to try to make this a reality. When jay
Speaker 1: Z was on the Breakfast Club, here's what he had
Speaker 1: to say about a possible collab. Would you ever do
Speaker 1: a King of New York album with Nas? Like how
Speaker 1: you and you did watch the throw? Not? Probably not
Speaker 1: at this point. You know, if if any other collaboration
Speaker 1: album would have to be with Kanye because you know
Speaker 1: this chemistry there and we already know how we're working.
Speaker 1: I don't really have the time to really like just
Speaker 1: figure out those situations and how a person works, and
Speaker 1: it's hard to do. It's hard to do, especially you're
Speaker 1: gonna make something great. First of all, it's a Breakfast
Speaker 1: Club interview for every moment. I just want to throw
Speaker 1: that out there, and I would. Dj Khalid had posted
Speaker 1: because Jenior said, what's your dream collab album? DJ Calli
Speaker 1: responded Nas and jay Z, and then Omega Supreme nine
Speaker 1: one four posted can we get a Nas jay Z album?
Speaker 1: Totally produced by hit Boy, and hit Boy responded, who
Speaker 1: want to see it? I would like to hear a
Speaker 1: Nas and jay Z album. Our EP titled success, King's
Speaker 1: dreaming four for four with great projects. I think if
Speaker 1: they can capture that vibe together, I'd love to hear it.
Speaker 1: Hit Boy, I definitely want him involved. I don't want
Speaker 1: Kalin nowhere near it, though Kalin makes great records with
Speaker 1: a lot of artists, with jay Z's not one of them.
Speaker 1: I don't like Jay and Kali collaborations. Wow and sorry,
Speaker 1: not sorry. It's it's a good record, but let's be real.
Speaker 1: Nas and jay Z carried they carried that song. The
Speaker 1: beat is decent. I hate to hook, but yeah, that's
Speaker 1: my final as well. All right, wife and Lucci. He
Speaker 1: has been named in a one hundred five count Atlanta
Speaker 1: Blood's Gang racketeering indictment. You know he was arrested on
Speaker 1: felony murder in January. He's facing some additional charges. According
Speaker 1: to reports, he is one of twelve people named in
Speaker 1: a seventy five page, one hundred five count racketeering indictment
Speaker 1: focused on factions within the Blood's gang. They said this
Speaker 1: indictment is unprecedented period in Georgia. According to the Fulton
Speaker 1: County District Attorney, there's been a huge spike in violent crime.
Speaker 1: I made a commitment to bring the best and the
Speaker 1: brightest minds here, many of what you see sitting here
Speaker 1: right now, so that we could deal with this issue
Speaker 1: of this violent crime. So wife and Lucci's attorney is
Speaker 1: saying that Lucci is innocent. He said he's not a
Speaker 1: gang member. What he is is an internationally recognized musical
Speaker 1: artist that is a triple platinum winner that has performed
Speaker 1: all over the United States and all over the world.
Speaker 1: So he is already facing an unrelated murder charts and
Speaker 1: connection to the shooting death of a twenty eight year
Speaker 1: old James Adams last December. He was granted five hundred
Speaker 1: thousand dollars bond, but Georgia prosecutors when it revoked, they
Speaker 1: believe he violated his bond when hitting the studio and
Speaker 1: going to a strip club. I think I said earlier
Speaker 1: something to the effect of, you know, you think you
Speaker 1: got problems, so you see somebody else's This is one
Speaker 1: of those situations where you think you got problems. So
Speaker 1: you see a wife and Bucci's going through who is
Speaker 1: a lot. I actually had to sit down with him.
Speaker 1: He flew into New York to do this interview I
Speaker 1: did with him on Fox Soul. That was pretty good.
Speaker 1: In death. We talked for like over an hour about
Speaker 1: everything that was going on in his life. Are you
Speaker 1: about to get a names in the indictment? Then? What
Speaker 1: do you know? You? Why what do you know? I
Speaker 1: know everything, y'all know from the interview. I didn't interview him.
Speaker 1: I didn't sit down on him for an hour. Okay, Well,
Speaker 1: it's all out there, so it's already. Yeah, it's already. Okay,
Speaker 1: it's out it's out all right. Naomi Yosaka, she is
Speaker 1: launching a tennis academy in Haiti and in La So
Speaker 1: your interviewed Doctor Umar. He came on the show and
Speaker 1: he had to and I wasn't there. He had some
Speaker 1: things to say about Naoyosaka. He was upset about the
Speaker 1: fact that she represents Japan. Here's what he said, Naomi Osaka,
Speaker 1: I love his sister, right, but guess what who is
Speaker 1: she representing in the upcoming Olympics. She represents Japan. So
Speaker 1: here you have an African system with a Japanese mother,
Speaker 1: and instead of going back home, to your father's blood, Haiti.
Speaker 1: You're instead going to represent the Japanese who've never done
Speaker 1: anything for black folks, but who taught her to play tennis,
Speaker 1: her black Haitian father, and until she do something significant
Speaker 1: for her father's people, who are responsible for the talent
Speaker 1: that she got. If it wasn't for a Haitian father,
Speaker 1: Charlotte Mane, she wouldn't be in that position show love
Speaker 1: to Haiti. Well, looks like she already had that in
Speaker 1: the works as this school is gonna be launching and
Speaker 1: this tennis academy, So yeah, she is showing love to
Speaker 1: Haiti in that way. Up its academy in Haiti. Yes,
Speaker 1: and in La she said, while it was not easy,

Speaker 1: Dan explain why she couldn't And I think in the
Speaker 1: United States they didn't treat her like so from my
