Speaker 1: in the game, guys are the coveted morning show. What
Speaker 1: y'all earn it? Exacting the coach shore week up in
Speaker 1: the morning in hday want to hit us, but the
Speaker 1: world's most dangerous morning show, Good morning you s a listen, guys,
Speaker 1: it's Angela yee, It's the Breakfast Club. I am actually
Speaker 1: doing my show from home this morning because they did
Speaker 1: stay to stay up the roads unless it was an emergency.
Speaker 1: I know Charlomagne and Nvy are driving in, but it's
Speaker 1: a little bit rough out there. We actually had flash
Speaker 1: floods here in the New York City and the New
Speaker 1: Jersey area was a state of emergency that was effective immediately,
Speaker 1: all in response to Tropical Storm Ida. So personally on
Speaker 1: my block, it was completely flooded. The basement's flooded, roof.
Speaker 1: There's a couple of weeks, but I want to say
Speaker 1: we're very fortunate that it's not worse than than that,
Speaker 1: but we're not used to this. This is the first
Speaker 1: time they've ever had to issue a flash flood morning
Speaker 1: here in New York City, so this has never happened.
Speaker 1: The subways were closed from last night, but we'll give
Speaker 1: you all that information this morning. There is all kinds
Speaker 1: of damage. People have died. They said about eighty thousand
Speaker 1: customers in New Jersey have lost power. Fifty three hundred
Speaker 1: people in New York have lost power. So everybody, if
Speaker 1: you're out, if you're getting up, you're getting ready to
Speaker 1: go somewhere, please reconsider. I know there's a lot of
Speaker 1: cars that are abandoned on the streets. I know New
Speaker 1: Orleans is still having issues. I know Louisiana in general
Speaker 1: is still having issues. I know people who've had to drive,
Speaker 1: you know, over an hour to get gas and drive
Speaker 1: to another city. So right now it feels like global
Speaker 1: warming issues. Guys, all right, but we have let me
Speaker 1: see was coming on the show this morning. Who're doing
Speaker 1: because y'all know just usually Envy's part. Oh, Malcolm Mays. Yes,
Speaker 1: Malcolm Mays is gonna be on this show this morning.
Speaker 1: He's extraordinary as far as being a writer. He also
Speaker 1: is an actor. You know him from being on Snowfall,
Speaker 1: you know him from right now, he's on Raising Canaan.
Speaker 1: On Stars he plays Lulu, and then he's also has
Speaker 1: several movies that he's working on and that he's writing.
Speaker 1: So we're gonna discuss all that this morning. But he
Speaker 1: has a fascinating life. He is from la and his
Speaker 1: uncle is actually two ky So we'll talk about all
Speaker 1: of that when he comes through this morning. But next
Speaker 1: up we do have Front Page News, and after that
Speaker 1: we have a you know, get it off your chest.
Speaker 1: So I know a lot of people are gonna want
Speaker 1: to call him this morning talking about their own experience.
Speaker 1: Is about what's going on again. Look, I know I
Speaker 1: posted like what my block was looking like, and I
Speaker 1: saw some people being like, all right, y'all, we used
Speaker 1: to it here, but you know, we're not used to
Speaker 1: this in New York. But I do always feel like
Speaker 1: we have empathy when this happens in other places. Right
Speaker 1: now is really bad and other states and in other cities.
Speaker 1: So let's all just make sure we support each other
Speaker 1: right in this time. All right, So next up Front
Speaker 1: Page News, we'll be telling you more about what's been
Speaker 1: happening with these heavy floods, with this tropical storm. And
Speaker 1: it's the Breakfast Club. It's the breakfast Club. It's the Thursday.
Speaker 1: I'm precedented things happening. I'm Angela Yee. Charlomagne and V
Speaker 1: are on their way into work. They did say to
Speaker 1: stay up the road. I got up this morning and
Speaker 1: thought about going into work, and then I was watching
Speaker 1: the news and seeing all these cars that have been
Speaker 1: stuck places and all this flooding going on, and I said,
Speaker 1: you know what, let's set up this equipment. So in
Speaker 1: New York and New Jersey, they have declared emergencies. At
Speaker 1: least nine people have been reported dead and the record rains.
Speaker 1: According to New York Governor Kathy Hokl, she said, I'm
Speaker 1: declaring a state of emergency to help New York is
Speaker 1: affected by tonight's storm. The New York City Mayor Build
Speaker 1: de Blajio described the flooding and weather as a historic
Speaker 1: weather event. The National Weather Service issued a flash flood
Speaker 1: of emergency in New York City. This is the first
Speaker 1: time in history that this has happened. At least one
Speaker 1: person was killed as a flooding was in New Jersey
Speaker 1: in Passaic. NBC New York reported one more person died
Speaker 1: in New Jersey and seven died in New York City,
Speaker 1: which included a two year old boy, according to local media,
Speaker 1: They reported that people had been trapped in their basements
Speaker 1: as the storm sent waters surging throughout the city. So
Speaker 1: they had told people you had to stay off the streets,
Speaker 1: they said until five am. All non emergency vehicles were
Speaker 1: banned from New York City streets because of the weather.
Speaker 1: They said, please let these emergency vehicles get through and
Speaker 1: be able to do their job and help people. Nearly
Speaker 1: all New York City subway lines were suspended late yesterday
Speaker 1: as the remnants of Ida brought to rental rain and
Speaker 1: the thread of flash fledged and tornadoes. Even so, everybody, please,
Speaker 1: if you're out there, be safe. Flights were suspended. I
Speaker 1: know some people who were on flights. I saw my girl,
Speaker 1: Summer Walker, was on a flight and she was waiting
Speaker 1: to take off, and then they ended up just canceling
Speaker 1: the flight and a RISCA mesuling it for this morning. Now.
Speaker 1: Four people that were killed in New York City were
Speaker 1: trapped in their basement as the storm sent water rushing
Speaker 1: throughout the city and really unfortunate situation. A sixty six
Speaker 1: year old man in Brooklyn was discovered dead in the
Speaker 1: basement of his apartment this morning around twelve thirty five am.
Speaker 1: A woman in her forties was found dead in her
Speaker 1: apartment on Grandsonshi Parkway as well. So Trenton police officers
Speaker 1: also have issue. But they were going door to door
Speaker 1: last night checking on residents, encouraging people to leave their homes.
Speaker 1: But it's a mandatory evacuation in Trenton, New Jersey, So
Speaker 1: everybody please, like I said, let's be safe, you guys.
Speaker 1: And also let's talk about unvaccinated players. For the Nets,
Speaker 1: the Knicks, and the Warriors, they will not be allowed
Speaker 1: in their home arenas if they haven't received that vaccine.
Speaker 1: That's also due to local regulations. In New York and
Speaker 1: San Francisco, unvaccinated players have been banned from entering their
Speaker 1: respective arenas, and visiting players who aren't vaccinated, however, will
Speaker 1: be allowed to play. So for those visiting players, they
Speaker 1: don't face the same standards as home players. That doesn't
Speaker 1: make any sense to me, because if the regulations are
Speaker 1: you can't come into these events without being vaccinated. I
Speaker 1: don't think other players should be allowed to do it
Speaker 1: if they're forcing the home staff to do it, but
Speaker 1: coaches and teams and arena staff will interact with players
Speaker 1: and reps are also required to be vaccinated as well.
Speaker 1: As we've told you guys previously. I hear someone coming
Speaker 1: in that be all right, yeah, you hear me. He's
Speaker 1: he's on his way into How is it? How is
Speaker 1: it driving into work? I mean, I know, I know,
Speaker 1: we naturally syndicated. What I was fine leaving Jersey is
Speaker 1: when I got to New York on the West Side Highway,
Speaker 1: I guess a tree or something that fell, and I
Speaker 1: think it just fell because there was no like police
Speaker 1: or anything on the scene. And I just saw all
Speaker 1: the cards that were involved in the wreck because of
Speaker 1: the tree falling. So I mean, yeah, but other than
Speaker 1: the West Side, it was cool. Yeah. Well, this is
Speaker 1: never happened before in New York City. A flash flood
Speaker 1: emergency warning, so this is unprecedented. Are actually actually the
Speaker 1: juice bar that we own is completely flooded in the basement? Wow,
Speaker 1: Like yeah, it's bad. The subways are flooded. They shut
Speaker 1: down the subway systems. This has never happened here before.
Speaker 1: I was outside, like, I don't recall it ever being
Speaker 1: as bad, and my whole block was flooded. It's dangerous
Speaker 1: for people whose cars are underneath the water. So we'll
Speaker 1: see what the remnants of all this will be, even
Speaker 1: though it's not raining anymore right now. But that is
Speaker 1: your front page news, so right now you can get
Speaker 1: it off your chest. Call us up eight hundred and

Speaker 1: and you know if you have a dehumidifier that will
Speaker 1: help you too to get rid of all that moisture,
Speaker 1: because you're right, it will get moldy. Yeah, I definitely

Speaker 1: am throwing my first event to speaking, so I'm excited.
Speaker 1: There you go. I love the Pivot. I love the Pivotal.

Speaker 1: in her basement, but then she pivoted to something positive
Speaker 1: because you know what she said was true. It's just like,
Speaker 1: that's not the worst that could happen. There's people in
Speaker 1: Louisiana right now that are really experiencing the worst that

Speaker 1: Leakes family is in deep pain with a broken heart
Speaker 1: after a long badway cancer. Greg Leaks has passed away
Speaker 1: peacefully in his home, surrounded by all of his children,

Speaker 1: family and allow them to mourn in private during this
Speaker 1: very difficult time. Man sending Ninie Leaks and her whole

Speaker 1: was just talking to a doctor about when to get
Speaker 1: a colonoscopy, and she told me of forty five used
Speaker 1: to be fifty, but now it's forty five. And if
Speaker 1: you have history in your family, they said even as
Speaker 1: early as thirty five. Yeah, condolens is definitely to the family.
Speaker 1: They shared that he had been diagnosed calling cancer back
Speaker 1: in twenty eighteen and then he was in remission the
Speaker 1: following year, but unfortunately that did not last long and
Speaker 1: she revealed in June that the cancer had returned and
Speaker 1: that he had undergone surgery. She said on the Jasmine
Speaker 1: Brand that it was he had gotten super small and
Speaker 1: that things have just been different. It's definitely sending a
Speaker 1: healing energy. Man, go go go get checked. If you
Speaker 1: if you're around that age where you need to go
Speaker 1: get a colonoscopy, go get one. All r right now.
Speaker 1: Dog the Bounty Hunter has done an interview and he
Speaker 1: talked to Entertainment Tonight's Kevin Frasier. Some of the things
Speaker 1: that he discussed was, if you guys recall there was video.
Speaker 1: There was audiotaped phone call with his son where he
Speaker 1: was using the N where to use it over six
Speaker 1: times during that call. It was made public and the
Speaker 1: National Inquirer back in two thousand and seven. And here's
Speaker 1: what he said about using the N word. I have
Speaker 1: never been a racist. I'm thirty three and a half
Speaker 1: percent of patchy, but because of over fifteen years ago,
Speaker 1: I have an achilles heel because I used the wrong word.
Speaker 1: Why were you using that word so freely? Well, I
Speaker 1: thought I had a pass in the black tribe to
Speaker 1: use it, kind of like Eminem. He asked the brothers.
Speaker 1: Who were the brothers I had just gotten out of
Speaker 1: prison in nineteen seventy nine after spending time in eighteen
Speaker 1: months in Texas, and it was probably three quarters from
Speaker 1: the black tribe. So that was a word that we
Speaker 1: used back and forth as maybe a compliment. He makes
Speaker 1: it seem like the Brothers are like an administration, Like
Speaker 1: it's an administration of black people who make all the
Speaker 1: rules and codes of conduct for black people. Well, here's
Speaker 1: why he really thought he was able to use that word.
Speaker 1: My past expired for using it. But no one told
Speaker 1: me that to say a racist name doesn't qualify to
Speaker 1: make you a racist. If you use that word, you
Speaker 1: use it in your regular, everyday life, it makes you
Speaker 1: a racist. I have more black friends than Eminem that
Speaker 1: I have lots of black friends, so that should make
Speaker 1: me okay with black people. Why keep doing Eminem? Under
Speaker 1: the bush. Yeah, and does not have a path to
Speaker 1: use the N word. There's no white person who has
Speaker 1: a path to use the N word in any context.
Speaker 1: But this is absolutely why we might have We got
Speaker 1: to stop using this word. I'd be trying not to
Speaker 1: use it, you know what I mean. But I never
Speaker 1: use it as a term of endemic. It's a low
Speaker 1: vibration of the word, and when I use it, it's
Speaker 1: in a negative context. All right now. He also had
Speaker 1: had accusations of being homophobic, and here's how he responds
Speaker 1: to those accusations. She's been fed what to say. I
Speaker 1: have three people that are on my staff that are
Speaker 1: gay man, my daughter's gay baby, Lisa. I don't understand
Speaker 1: why anybody would ever say that. I hear what you're saying. Remember,
Speaker 1: proximity does not mean that you're not racist and homophobic.
Speaker 1: Would I die for a gay man or a black man?
Speaker 1: I'd laid down my life. I will lay down on
Speaker 1: my stomach for a gay black man. Yeah, I mean,
Speaker 1: he doesn't even know. Sounds to me like Dog the
Speaker 1: bounty hunter might need to go back to rehab. He
Speaker 1: sounds like he's still on drugs. Okay, But I'm sending
Speaker 1: him healing energy lord having merchant. That was very jamad.
Speaker 1: I would blade down my lay on my stomach for
Speaker 1: a gay black man. Listen when when when he used
Speaker 1: the N word originally? What context was it in? I
Speaker 1: don't I remember this, but I never listened to it.
Speaker 1: He was on the phone with his son and they
Speaker 1: were having an argument and the sudden recorded it. You know,
Speaker 1: I guess. I mean, I can't see who else could
Speaker 1: have put it out these people kids, because he said
Speaker 1: he was speaking out of anger, and so I don't
Speaker 1: know it was it wasn't a good thing. These people
Speaker 1: kids are crazy because he makes it sound like he's uh,
Speaker 1: he was saying it at a term of endearment, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean. But that's what I'm saying. So
Speaker 1: it sounds to me like you were seeing it as
Speaker 1: a slur. And I do disagree with one of the brothers.
Speaker 1: Who was that, Kevin? That was Kevin Frasier, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I disagree when he said that if you, you know,
Speaker 1: are white, and you use that word, you know, on
Speaker 1: a daily basis, you're racist because you could just be
Speaker 1: a white person who thinks they're down and be using it,
Speaker 1: you know, as as as in the context that we
Speaker 1: at that a lot of brothers. You know, who's your brother?
Speaker 1: I don't know who the brother the given out these passes.
Speaker 1: He didn't know his pass it expired. This is hilarious, right,
Speaker 1: you gotta get that read. It's like your passport. Oh
Speaker 1: my goodness. All right. And Joy Bayar has said that
Speaker 1: what is the key to her being on the long
Speaker 1: running chat show The View for twenty three seasons. She's
Speaker 1: seventy eight years old, she's only she's the only original
Speaker 1: member to have stayed on the talk show since it
Speaker 1: started back in nineteen ninety seven, and she talked to
Speaker 1: people about the show's legacy and how she kept her
Speaker 1: job all these years, and she said it's by apologizing
Speaker 1: even when she doesn't mean it. She said, I've had
Speaker 1: to apologize, which I'm happy to do in order to
Speaker 1: save fun and everybody else's job. I don't care keep
Speaker 1: it abody don't mean it. I'll do it even if
Speaker 1: I look like I'm in a hostage takeover. I'll still
Speaker 1: do it because if you don't do it, you need
Speaker 1: your job and everybody else respected. Man, I respect that
Speaker 1: level because because whenever somebody he's under fire, like the
Speaker 1: you know, the apology. You know, more times than not
Speaker 1: have probably not to use it. But even if it is,
Speaker 1: even if it is like halfway sincere, just do it
Speaker 1: if that's going to make the situation better, George, Because
Speaker 1: sometimes sometimes people will offend folks and they may feel
Speaker 1: like I didn't. I didn't mean to offend it. It It
Speaker 1: wasn't my intention to offend. Therefore I don't have to apologize.

Speaker 1: I just saw a rat getting his life on Instagram.
Speaker 1: His rat was swimming like he was backstroking and all
Speaker 1: types of creating stuff. If you see how the subways
Speaker 1: are flooded in New York, I can imagine a lot
Speaker 1: of those rats of I don't know rest of swim
Speaker 1: that good. I had no idea. All right, Amby, I said,
Speaker 1: let's get into some front page. I didn't hear you
Speaker 1: all right now, a thirty nine year old man from Tennessee,
Speaker 1: Tyson Gilbert, has been apprehended by authorities. He cut off
Speaker 1: and tossed his penis during a police pursuit. They said
Speaker 1: he threw it out the window of his Honda Accord.
Speaker 1: He was trying to escape law enforcement. He was parked
Speaker 1: in the way of traffic on a highway and then
Speaker 1: he sped off after authorities flagged him down. Now, according
Speaker 1: to an offer he said an officer, he said, when
Speaker 1: I pulled it behind him and turned my lights on,
Speaker 1: he took off and refused to stop. He was all
Speaker 1: over the road the whole time. He opened the door.
Speaker 1: He was naked and covering and bloody. Then shut his
Speaker 1: door and kept driving. They said they went through two
Speaker 1: counties and at some point that's when he cut his
Speaker 1: penis off and threw it out the window. Was the
Speaker 1: penis gonna? He used his evidence where they chasing him
Speaker 1: for a potential sexual assault or something like that, Like what,
Speaker 1: what's the reasoning? He said he heard voices from his
Speaker 1: car radio that told him he had to do it
Speaker 1: in order to save the world. Oh, so he's clearly
Speaker 1: suffering from some type of mental illness clearly. Yah, Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's that for the penis. So what did they do
Speaker 1: with a guy like that? You don't take a brother
Speaker 1: like that to jail, right, Well, I don't know if
Speaker 1: he was a brother, but you don't take a guy
Speaker 1: like that to jail, right. She clearly should be in
Speaker 1: some time. Right. They did confirm he's getting treatment for
Speaker 1: his wound and the investigation is ongoing. But he does
Speaker 1: also have some active warrants for some unspecified offenses. So
Speaker 1: they took him into custody and he's at the hospital.
Speaker 1: That's a screen one, right, Like. I feel like he
Speaker 1: should be in some type of psychiatric unit, right, like
Speaker 1: he should be getting Yeah, he's in the hospital. He's
Speaker 1: not in no jail. They can't put him in the jail,
Speaker 1: So he's in a mental hospital right now probably, I
Speaker 1: think right now, first they're probably treating him. Yeah, for
Speaker 1: that first feeling has to start somewhere, and it does,
Speaker 1: It should start there, yeah, all right. An Amazon is
Speaker 1: looking to hire fifty five thousand people. The company said
Speaker 1: yesterday they're planning to do that around the world. About
Speaker 1: forty thousand of those roles will be in the US
Speaker 1: and all the open roles are for tech and corporate positions,
Speaker 1: and then separately, they're also hiring people to work in
Speaker 1: warehouses to pack and ship online orders. So some other
Speaker 1: companies laid people love during a pandemic, Amazon's workforce has
Speaker 1: actually hired more people. Last year alone, they hired five
Speaker 1: hundred thousand people. By the way, and just another update
Speaker 1: on what's going on in the New York City, New
Speaker 1: Jersey area. You know, they had everything closed off until
Speaker 1: five am. They were asking people if you were not
Speaker 1: an emergency vehicle, to not be on the roads. Right now,
Speaker 1: everything is the rain has stopped, but there's still a
Speaker 1: lot of emergencies that are happening. At least so far,
Speaker 1: nine people have been reported dead and record rains. According
Speaker 1: to the Mayor of New York City, this is a
Speaker 1: historic weather event. The National Weather Service did issue a
Speaker 1: flash flood emergency in New York City and this was
Speaker 1: the first time this has ever happened. So there's been
Speaker 1: a lot of video that people have been posting showing
Speaker 1: flooding situations. Four people died after getting stuck in a
Speaker 1: basement during the flooding, and this was in New York
Speaker 1: City and Queens and so we are just sending out

Speaker 1: Who was Malcolm Mayes? Where did Malcolm Mayes come from?
Speaker 1: How did you get into this industry? How did you
Speaker 1: become an actor and a writer? You have a very
Speaker 1: unique story, man, that's dense. Uh, this is what time
Speaker 1: is it? Um? I'm from Los Angeles, California. I was
Speaker 1: raised all over LA. South Central's home and uh yeah, man,
Speaker 1: I guess how did I get into this? My mother
Speaker 1: trying to keep me out of trouble, and her her
Speaker 1: ideal situation for me was to like be busy so
Speaker 1: I wouldn't notice what was happening, And so she just
Speaker 1: put me in a bunch of and I gravitated towards art.
Speaker 1: I played sports and all that too. So people in
Speaker 1: the neighborhood were very supportive of you in this career.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's like man ball in village. Like even
Speaker 1: when I was like torns everywhere I moved in LA. Honestly,
Speaker 1: everybody kind of looked out for me, like Tea especially Um.
Speaker 1: They saw me and you know, we'd be running around
Speaker 1: the hood or what we're doing, and they were my
Speaker 1: big homies. Was healthy, like they weren't toxic big companies.
Speaker 1: They was like, you won't run the fade if you're
Speaker 1: not a class Like, yeah, so you still out here.
Speaker 1: But they there was a code and there was a
Speaker 1: structure in my hood. It's really different than any Tell
Speaker 1: the story of you in class and you get a
Speaker 1: phone call, Oh from John rest in face, damn um,
Speaker 1: John Singleton, What grade were you? I was in tenth
Speaker 1: grade a high school with a a hole moon class. Your
Speaker 1: phone ring GDP for like my phone after your teacher,
Speaker 1: you put up the phone that had a story. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So I was in class at Dorsey High School was
Speaker 1: one of most notorious high schools in Los Angeles at
Speaker 1: the time, and so we ran the classroom like we
Speaker 1: didn't teachers didn't do um. So at some point I
Speaker 1: got a phone call. So I picked up the phone.
Speaker 1: Call teacher teaching their class, like teacher, old lord, hold
Speaker 1: on this just my cold lord, it's public school. Are
Speaker 1: they teaching? I'm just kidding, No, I'm just kidding. They
Speaker 1: were actually I love my school. But um, I picked
Speaker 1: up because you know, I was larger than life at
Speaker 1: that point. Teacher, hold on when you pick Yeah, well
Speaker 1: I told him hold on when he tried because our
Speaker 1: teachers were hood too, so they was like, he was like,
Speaker 1: get off the phone. I was like, hold on, this
Speaker 1: is this is it might be really important. Is At
Speaker 1: the time, I was working at Sony Pictures and doing
Speaker 1: a bunch of while living in the hood. So I
Speaker 1: picked up the phone and it was like, hey, man,
Speaker 1: this is John. I'm like, I'm in class, Stop playing
Speaker 1: with me. I thought it was my cousin, um because
Speaker 1: because he would call and quit me and so I
Speaker 1: was like, man, get off my phone. Peace. So I
Speaker 1: hung up. You hung up John Singleton or John Singleton
Speaker 1: at sixteen years old in the middle of the home room.
Speaker 1: And then he called back again and he's like, this
Speaker 1: is John Singleton and I'll fight you too. He's like
Speaker 1: he's like he stay on the phone, stop playing with me.
Speaker 1: And I was like, I'm sorry, mister, I didn't realize
Speaker 1: it was you, my cousin. He's like like, look, I
Speaker 1: want you to come meet me at Scarball Museum. And
Speaker 1: watch a film, bring your family whatever, because I you know,
Speaker 1: I'm interested in me. How did he get introduced to you?
Speaker 1: How did he know who you are? And how did
Speaker 1: he make that phone called? What? What? What? What impression
Speaker 1: did you leave out there that made him want to call?
Speaker 1: Actually it was this old white dude named Gary Martin.
Speaker 1: And so he's kind of like the secret third bass
Speaker 1: or the whole Sony Pictures. And I was working at
Speaker 1: Sony Pictures at the time. But we're doing at Sony Pictures,
Speaker 1: working under the head of physical production in turn in
Speaker 1: or was they paying or no, they was paying. I
Speaker 1: had a full check like food check, started off and
Speaker 1: turning for someone else. And then he ended up catching
Speaker 1: me at tenth grade. Before tenth grade, that happened to
Speaker 1: night grade. But yeah, that's crazy, but yeah it was wild. Um,
Speaker 1: So y'all take the bus from the hood all the
Speaker 1: way back to Kobd City on down, Jeff down, Jeff
Speaker 1: shout out that, and so he put John on like
Speaker 1: he put like I remember when John first had his
Speaker 1: first movie, he gave John his first offices at Sony
Speaker 1: Pictures in Columbia try to start building. So he was like,
Speaker 1: you remind me of somebody, and I was like who.
Speaker 1: He's like, I'm gonna introduce you to him one day,
Speaker 1: don't trip. And he didn't tell me that it was
Speaker 1: John Singleton. So one day he kept he kept bugging John.
Speaker 1: John would be like nahn Off, the kid nobody's meet,
Speaker 1: because John's ego was massive and as it should have been.
Speaker 1: And one day I got into the New York Times.
Speaker 1: I was from New York Times. He's like, oh, I
Speaker 1: better talk to this kid. Blow up and they hate
Speaker 1: on me. So he called and that's how we connected.
Speaker 1: It was because of Gary Martin shout out to him.
Speaker 1: Isn't it amazing how when you're young you can be
Speaker 1: so fearless about things. Oh yes, because people will tell
Speaker 1: you there's like a certain method in a way that
Speaker 1: you have to get to a position. But for you,
Speaker 1: you are young, just thinking like I'm gonna write this movie,
Speaker 1: and it's the luxury of ignorance, right like you you
Speaker 1: you you're superhuman, like especially where I was from, like
Speaker 1: the Dioces I was thirteen, So like that's death once once,
Speaker 1: the once, the on's the most extreme thing that can
Speaker 1: happen to you is your friend dying in your arms
Speaker 1: at eleven years old. Then everything else becomes like Hollywood movies,
Speaker 1: don't give a about Reese Withers. Phone is talented that
Speaker 1: she is, she's a human being. I just like your movies, like.
Speaker 1: I just put your like, and I think people kind
Speaker 1: of attract to that. I mean, that's probably why people
Speaker 1: put 'all's probably why it's an institution, because it's just
Speaker 1: regular you feel me, and it's an extraordinary circumstance with
Speaker 1: ordinary people. You feel me, Like you said at age eleven,
Speaker 1: a friend died in your arms. Yeah yeah, boy, get
Speaker 1: shot right in front of what happened. And the reason
Speaker 1: I ask is because it's it's like for most people
Speaker 1: when they hear La, all they think of is boys
Speaker 1: in the hood, poetic justice, and there's so much gang violence.
Speaker 1: How were you able to stay out of that gang
Speaker 1: mentality and that gang on my family? Dog, I come
Speaker 1: from a traditionalist Southern family. My family, interestingly enough, is
Speaker 1: it's a strange situation because my uncle Stanley took you
Speaker 1: wim so we the origination the Autoba gorge of modern
Speaker 1: day gang banger came from from him and a man
Speaker 1: named Raymond Washington. So people think that my family's just
Speaker 1: ghetto hood ass family, but in real life, like my
Speaker 1: grandmother's a Southern Baptist, she's a Bible dumper. My mama
Speaker 1: is an educated woman, like she was the first to
Speaker 1: get her masters and all that other. We just happened
Speaker 1: to grow up in a situation where they were dire straights.
Speaker 1: At some point, I think up to eight we was
Speaker 1: like heading towards like middle classes. It was cool. My
Speaker 1: popstles around and then she took a left. My mother
Speaker 1: and my grandmother are everything brough. They the reason because
Speaker 1: they never let my circumstance and our externals dictate our
Speaker 1: internal I didn't even know why I was broken until
Speaker 1: I went to school white kids like I had no idea,
Speaker 1: Like my mama tricked me in the thinking Barnes and
Speaker 1: Noble was the spot that was getting a new book, Yo,
Speaker 1: you popping like she tricked me. Like we were always
Speaker 1: in like a black neighborhood like West Adams District. And
Speaker 1: then things changed and so I wasn't going to an
Speaker 1: integrated school anymore. I was going to the hood school
Speaker 1: that all my homies had already been going to since
Speaker 1: they was kids. But I had the foundation of like
Speaker 1: an education from a higher tax bracket, so I was
Speaker 1: still a hood but like how to learn, I had
Speaker 1: learned and from a very expensive place. So I had
Speaker 1: that with me, and it showed me very early on
Speaker 1: that like, oh I was privileged. You know, my mother
Speaker 1: sacrificed a lot, Like she could have been corporate. I
Speaker 1: could have probably we probably could have had a better
Speaker 1: financial situation because she chose to have jobs that were
Speaker 1: closer to me, because she realized the influenced in my
Speaker 1: neighborhood was having on me. So she was like, now
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give him my personal life. You feel me? Like,
Speaker 1: was your father still active even after they separated? You
Speaker 1: know that dog? Yeah, Like, well, I don't even know
Speaker 1: if they they are weird. You know, I'm putting their
Speaker 1: business out there, but yeah, they kind of they still
Speaker 1: date to this day. That's what I say. No more right,
Speaker 1: but he was there was a moment my parents had divorced.
Speaker 1: But the yird thing I'm paying for the look, I
Speaker 1: don't know if it does again because you'd be like
Speaker 1: my daddy h good. But like as a as a relationship,
Speaker 1: I'm like, Mama, what the is you doing? Different? A
Speaker 1: little bit of you know, but he he's but one
Speaker 1: thing I will say about my pops, you know, you know,
Speaker 1: because I know our dog don a lot because of
Speaker 1: certain things that happened between us. But like when you're
Speaker 1: a child, that ain't your business. Your parents situation ain't
Speaker 1: your business. Like I'm a big, a big advocate of
Speaker 1: mind jos And even when he kind of like he
Speaker 1: had his little moment where he had to go what
Speaker 1: I'll call it is he had a sabbatical, had to
Speaker 1: sit down. Yeah, and um, you know, I was kind
Speaker 1: of out here by myself for a little bit. It
Speaker 1: was a necessary thing because it made me. It's all
Speaker 1: those things that may have been toxic to some people
Speaker 1: in this modern day because you know, masculinity's going through
Speaker 1: a transformation, those are the very things that kept me safe.
Speaker 1: Now I'm learning that those tools maybe don't work now
Speaker 1: when you're in a relationship with a woman. Now you're
Speaker 1: trying to be communicative and you don't protect yourself, yeah,
Speaker 1: protect yourself, protect her, and maybe you don't need to
Speaker 1: be out here like pressing every line you feel me,
Speaker 1: which is an everyday process for me. But those are
Speaker 1: still very valuable tools, and I appreciate him for that,
Speaker 1: and I bet you could really tap into that when
Speaker 1: it comes to the roles you've been playing too. Oh man,
Speaker 1: let me tell you. It's definitely snow Fall, and it's
Speaker 1: so funny. I feel like I keep playing bitch ass,
Speaker 1: I really do. I'll be feeling like, Damn, I'm not
Speaker 1: gonna play somebody who really like I like them. I
Speaker 1: like them as people. They're not solid like that, they're
Speaker 1: too emotional. All right. We got more with Malcolm Hays
Speaker 1: when we come back Don't Move. It's to Breakfast Club,
Speaker 1: Good Morning Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne,
Speaker 1: the guy we are the Breakfast Club was still kicking
Speaker 1: it with Malcolm May's writer and actor. Now, how did
Speaker 1: you get into raising Canaan before that was Snowfalls. Snowfall
Speaker 1: was Oh. Me and Johnny got into it when I
Speaker 1: was like eighteen, so we didn't speak for like two
Speaker 1: or three you know, into it because at the time,
Speaker 1: you know, I have daddy issues, he had sun issues,
Speaker 1: and we connected like I was the son he kind
Speaker 1: of like he wanted like he looked at me like
Speaker 1: a son figure. And at the time I think he
Speaker 1: was getting into it with his son, which by the way,
Speaker 1: he sounds an awesome person. Um and my pops we
Speaker 1: had our issues, so we kind of liked he was
Speaker 1: like a father figure to here. He was period and
Speaker 1: I never told him that, which really sucks, but it
Speaker 1: was what it was. And he thought he could tell
Speaker 1: me what to do. But I was already a fully
Speaker 1: developed human being by sixteen. We had already been through war.
Speaker 1: So I was like, I want to study economics. I'm
Speaker 1: already at like my film school that he had petitioned
Speaker 1: for me to go to USC Film School, and which
Speaker 1: is a big deal, like John Singleton takes you up
Speaker 1: to meet Elizabeth Dean daily like and I was kind
Speaker 1: of like, I don't to take no film courses. The
Speaker 1: screenwriter in one on one I've already been to tell you, Rod,
Speaker 1: I've already liked written, like I've cut the checks of
Speaker 1: some of my screenwriting teachers. I'm the one arbitrating the chat.
Speaker 1: Like I've already seen Lenote, I've already seen you know,
Speaker 1: I've already I know Felini, I know all this. And
Speaker 1: these kids just getting here because they Steven Spielberg cousin,
Speaker 1: Like I don't want to be here. I don't like these.
Speaker 1: I don't kick it with these. Don't what am I
Speaker 1: doing here? I want to study something I don't know.
Speaker 1: I go over to the Marshall School of Business and Survey,
Speaker 1: like the economics classes, and I was like, oh, business,
Speaker 1: like this makes more sense for me because I know
Speaker 1: it's others. I don't know this. I don't know why
Speaker 1: we don't have access to resources. Why are we not
Speaker 1: behind the camera? Why you feel me? And but John
Speaker 1: is like, I didn't raise all this money for you
Speaker 1: to go to business school. I did this for you
Speaker 1: to go to film school, because that's how he did it.
Speaker 1: And so we used to butt heads, but he was
Speaker 1: really hooding. So like we got physical about it, like
Speaker 1: because like, ain't right. We moved some first. Yeah, he
Speaker 1: loved me. He loved me. We ain't gonna come on
Speaker 1: envy that man's not here, John, Yeah, why not? Yeah? John?

Speaker 1: like six people in there, and I was originally reading
Speaker 1: for Franklin and just crying in the audition on type
Speaker 1: and midway through my audition through the tape, he takes
Speaker 1: his glass off and he goes, holcome my son, you're
Speaker 1: so fucking good. I didn't know you was this good.
Speaker 1: Like he'd go he's such a real person. He literally
Speaker 1: in the middle of the audition goes up and Kim
Speaker 1: Martin's like, what the fuck is going on? And so
Speaker 1: immediately something because between him, Eddie Griffin and Nick Cannon.
Speaker 1: Um No. But like really he was like really like
Speaker 1: excited because it was a great audition, and so he
Speaker 1: really got excited. So that's how you know, I ended up,
Speaker 1: you know, kind of continuing that process. Now, what about
Speaker 1: raising Kane and how'd you get there? Nobody? Actually I
Speaker 1: just like, honestly, I didn't want to do this, but
Speaker 1: the power at first, really yeah, fifty's really annoying sometimes
Speaker 1: like blood is a good Like he really good, but
Speaker 1: like he just kind of like annoying. So when we
Speaker 1: were shooting South Ball, it was his first Power was
Speaker 1: just about to premiere, so he was like treating it
Speaker 1: like he treats Branson Kanyac right now, like he like,
Speaker 1: you see you see Power? Yet it comes up tonight.
Speaker 1: It's coming up tonight. So everybody you're watching in the hotels.
Speaker 1: If you won't get the hotel, I get you the subscription.
Speaker 1: He's pressing you, and I remember setting up an hotel.
Speaker 1: First five minutes. I was like, these kids don't look
Speaker 1: like these parents. It's like killing somebody in the back
Speaker 1: of the club. Like this don't make no sense to me.
Speaker 1: I'm a real street I'm like, this doesn't add up.
Speaker 1: I'm good. Right, So the next morning he presses me.
Speaker 1: We're on set. He's like, you watch Power. I'm like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I've seen it. He's like, do you think I didn't
Speaker 1: get to the first five minutes? Man? How you know
Speaker 1: he talking like fifty right now? I don't know. He's
Speaker 1: likely come in. I was like, come in. He travels
Speaker 1: with a whole bus, so not just the trailer. He
Speaker 1: has a whole bus. That has a whole studio. He
Speaker 1: forced me to watch the first episode of Power and
Speaker 1: next to him, and I was just sitting there, like
Speaker 1: I do I like this? It is soa p operate,
Speaker 1: but I know it's gonna like it because my grandma
Speaker 1: used to love stories and it's basically with stories with
Speaker 1: drugs and sex, which is brilliant on behalf of of Courtney,
Speaker 1: Like this is a nighttime so with violence. So I
Speaker 1: knew it was gonna work. But he's like, what do

Speaker 1: on a like second, third, fourth, fifth audition. I did
Speaker 1: one in a room full of like five six people,
Speaker 1: and before I even got off the lot, it was
Speaker 1: calling like is he available? Can he do this? And
Speaker 1: I'm like, I don't know, man, like, I gotta see
Speaker 1: the script? Who in it? And the show runner saw
Speaker 1: Chapin to his credit, called to me. He didn't have to.
Speaker 1: He called me and said this is not gonna be

Speaker 1: and I was like, this woman is amazing, and now
Speaker 1: she's gonna tell I'm like, oh, this is gonna this
Speaker 1: gotta be different if she doing it. And then I said,
Speaker 1: but I need I have one thing though, one request,
Speaker 1: which no power don't give. I was like, I'm not
Speaker 1: doing it unless I can read the script. It's in
Speaker 1: New York. My mother, my grandmother are like, la, I'm
Speaker 1: the only patriarch. I'm the patriarch of my family currently,
Speaker 1: so I can't be away from them like that, Like
Speaker 1: there's only me and my family's mostly matriarch, so I'll
Speaker 1: take care everybody. I don't want to be away from them.
Speaker 1: So if I'm going to New York, I need to
Speaker 1: make sure I can be able to get them out there.
Speaker 1: I need some tickets for them to be able to
Speaker 1: come or me to come back. And I need to
Speaker 1: be able to read the first pilot. I thought they
Speaker 1: was gonna be like, let me read They let me
Speaker 1: read it. I'm just trying to make reasons not to
Speaker 1: go right. I'm like, and I want I want Pelagreeno
Speaker 1: every day on set. I want Champanya. You know what
Speaker 1: from me? You know you don't ask you don't get
Speaker 1: did you um read for the character Lulu? Was that
Speaker 1: the character? That's yeah, that's the only thing I did
Speaker 1: one audition. It's the first time in my life usually
Speaker 1: like I audition sixteen times the snow fall. So what's
Speaker 1: your relationship with let me call me bugging me yesterday
Speaker 1: like not yesterday like last week. I've up and done
Speaker 1: some Chano business. I can't speak on it on here,
Speaker 1: but I didn't believe it. He called me and talked
Speaker 1: to me for five hours, telling me y'alls. But then
Speaker 1: he'll he'll he'll beerrate you. But then he'll go into
Speaker 1: like inspiration cho like he like an old man sometimes,
Speaker 1: like he'll talk about a whole swath of he'd be
Speaker 1: like god damn. But it goes everywhere with Fifth. But yeah,
Speaker 1: and you learned that's that's interesting. But I gotta use
Speaker 1: the restroom hungry. Yeah, but he yeah, he's Fifth is
Speaker 1: cool man. He Fifth pulls up when he pulls up,
Speaker 1: when he shows up, he's all the way there when
Speaker 1: he not here goes no pun attended morning. Everybody in
Speaker 1: DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne and the guy. We all
Speaker 1: the breakfast club. We're still kicking him with writer and
Speaker 1: actor Malcolm Mayze. Ye. Now you've also been writing even
Speaker 1: more and you're so you're doing a New Jack City sequel. Yeah, man,
Speaker 1: I wish your boy Charlomagne was here. I was gonna
Speaker 1: press his lawn. Why because I got beef with that
Speaker 1: by we all do. But why I got beef with
Speaker 1: bro Um. I think he donkey of the day. The
Speaker 1: remake announcement for New Jack City too. I got the
Speaker 1: New Jack City Too thing. I was like in my
Speaker 1: early twenties, one of my biggest screen screenwriting, you know,
Speaker 1: announcements like I'm a young frond of City and they
Speaker 1: gave me New Jack City. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: But he kept more on purporting that it was a remake,
Speaker 1: and he was giving it the blues, and I was like, well,
Speaker 1: stop saying that it's a sequel. Right, So I'm here
Speaker 1: today to tell everybody who gave me a hard time
Speaker 1: it's not a remake. It is a secret. I do
Speaker 1: vaguely remember him talk. So it's set today in modern day, Yes,
Speaker 1: a modern day, like I wrote the lead Partners and
Speaker 1: Day and like it was, it's lit. What's the premise
Speaker 1: of it if you good, if you you good, if
Speaker 1: he gonna give you fire a little already wrote it,
Speaker 1: so it doesn't matter, right, but if one has called
Speaker 1: me whatever, what they're gonna do. So the way I
Speaker 1: said it is that it's it's the appropriate amount of
Speaker 1: time after it's now, it's now, and after you see
Speaker 1: where everybody has what's kind of happened to everybody through
Speaker 1: the lens of a new set of characters, and you
Speaker 1: will it starts with with um, I'll put it like this, Oh,
Speaker 1: this is the tagline that I used to use. He's
Speaker 1: like he says, Nino was trying to New jack a
Speaker 1: city I'm trying to trap the world, and takes place
Speaker 1: with like international, like Russia south of France. I put
Speaker 1: people of coloring internationally trading. So drug dealing more than
Speaker 1: just drug dealing. It's like drug dealing. How I'm not
Speaker 1: based in New York anymore. It is so it is
Speaker 1: because there's a lot of Chicago on the right. I
Speaker 1: mean in these health industries are are funded, and why
Speaker 1: do we play to those other characters that were there before?
Speaker 1: Everybody back? No helod gone, but he in there something,
Speaker 1: he's in there. In a way I'll put everybody back,
Speaker 1: about everybody back, that's because I wanted to meet everybody. Now,
Speaker 1: what about Christopher Williams. I'll be doing my lightskin brother's
Speaker 1: dirty man. I'll be doing it. But Chris, because Chris
Speaker 1: was Chris was a banker, he's a snitcher. Can do
Speaker 1: it in there that that's good g money somebody somebody, Well,
Speaker 1: the lead the leader is light skin is this is
Speaker 1: what I give you and the leaders light skin? The
Speaker 1: leaders a light skint. I wrote it wasn't die in mine,
Speaker 1: So it's iced Tea's daughter is the league dope? Okay?
Speaker 1: Oh wow? Really so I did? I wanted it? If
Speaker 1: you hear this, Zy, you're talented younger lady, and we
Speaker 1: want you to be that Jack City fan. Did you like, like,
Speaker 1: here's the thing about New Jack City. When you grow up,
Speaker 1: it's the greatest thing on the planet. You're watching it,
Speaker 1: you're like, this is crazy like last week and you
Speaker 1: and you like, I want to kill you so bad.
Speaker 1: It's hard. What the it's like when you really listen
Speaker 1: to Biggie talking about like you so fine, it's like
Speaker 1: your daddy, You're like, what is going on? Before you
Speaker 1: think about like what's different when you look at it
Speaker 1: now because not even because you know, if that's what
Speaker 1: you wanna do, that R vibe, I ain't tripping, you know.
Speaker 1: I support everybody, My homies is all that. But the
Speaker 1: the toxic, like the level of homo phobia that was
Speaker 1: in hip hop culture was wild. So to have so
Speaker 1: many homo erotic comments in hip hop staples, it's so
Speaker 1: like backwards to me because I'm like, why are you
Speaker 1: why you wanted to kill this? It's a gun. It's
Speaker 1: b already looked like like what's going on? You know,
Speaker 1: but it was when you look back at the movie
Speaker 1: yet certain things do not hold. But overall as an experience, yeah,
Speaker 1: he did something that was revolutionary. Shout out to Mario.
Speaker 1: He directed an episode of Power that is actually like
Speaker 1: my favorite episode right now. Two, eight and ten are
Speaker 1: like the best episodes to me. And he directed episode
Speaker 1: two Mario Peeples and we brought him back so and
Speaker 1: there was a New Jack City reference and I had
Speaker 1: to tell him I was I was writing New Jack
Speaker 1: City too, And he was so like loving and supportive.
Speaker 1: And he's such a good director. He's such a good
Speaker 1: like giving dude, wait to see you know, the only
Speaker 1: thing with those sequels is like and no disrespect to
Speaker 1: anybody to America fan, right, that's weak, bro on my mama.
Speaker 1: Eddie's Eddie's a legend. Eddie, Eddie's a legend. Eddie's a legend. Look,
Speaker 1: I love Kenya, so no disrespect, which I love Eddie.
Speaker 1: I love everybody in there is black as black Wesley
Speaker 1: was in there. It's dope. But my thing is, it's
Speaker 1: like there was such a high bar and if we're
Speaker 1: gonna pretend like we hit it, like, no, bro, I'm
Speaker 1: not doing that. Didn't hit what it did. I watched
Speaker 1: it five times because I support everything black. Yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna still go. I'm gonna still go pay to get
Speaker 1: better like about a fifth time. For you all I'm
Speaker 1: gonna say is I like working money and I ain't
Speaker 1: that yet. So like a lot of things I can't
Speaker 1: say because I want to. It's not about me, like
Speaker 1: I'll take care of other people if it was just me.
Speaker 1: I want to give a Honestly, I probably will still
Speaker 1: say this anyway. But that's but as much people talk
Speaker 1: about sequels, it's like y'all watch, y'all consume it. If
Speaker 1: y'all would go consume if the public would choose something else.
Speaker 1: And if they were promoted something else, of course it's
Speaker 1: not fully their fault, then they would the industry. Now
Speaker 1: it's not about racism, it's classism. It's the dollar. So
Speaker 1: if y'all go investing something else, they're gonna go do that.
Speaker 1: If y'all don't want to see sequels, no more, don't go.
Speaker 1: We don't even get to talk about raising Canan enough
Speaker 1: because you know I watch First of all, I'm mad
Speaker 1: that you didn't like Power at first, because you know
Speaker 1: I watched all of them, all of that. But but
Speaker 1: I appreciate that you, you know, have joined the cast.
Speaker 1: I don't know how much. I haven't seen the past
Speaker 1: two episodes yet. What are you doing you trip? I've
Speaker 1: been working the last time three. Yeah, I gotta get
Speaker 1: back this weekend. I'm back on That's why I want
Speaker 1: to ask you. I'm like, are you still gonna be
Speaker 1: doing what you're doing? Still? You need to watch five?
Speaker 1: Watch five? Y'all have to watch five and then keep
Speaker 1: watching until eight, and then you're gonna wanna ten. It's
Speaker 1: gonna it's just it's crazy. You know. I hope you
Speaker 1: last longer than you did on Snow falling man. I
Speaker 1: hope so too. And by the way, let me also
Speaker 1: say this about Power and this is real. When I
Speaker 1: had to go revisit Power because I was on the show,
Speaker 1: I like, I was like, oh damn. I said to
Speaker 1: all these who's your daddy types, like oh, somebody said dad.
Speaker 1: Somebody's like like you know, and I said, by by
Speaker 1: second season, no, actually by third season, I found myself
Speaker 1: getting emotional watching it with between Angela, uh it goes.
Speaker 1: I found myself getting emotion and I was like, what
Speaker 1: it's going on? Like why is this affecting me? And
Speaker 1: that's when I noticed the brilliance. I realized and I
Speaker 1: have to acknowledge the brilliance of Corney Kip because the
Speaker 1: plotting is so well done, even the first like the
Speaker 1: plotting is excellent. You feel me And I was like, oh,
Speaker 1: she know how to keep you on the hook, like
Speaker 1: you keep going and then you by the time you realize, oh,
Speaker 1: I'm involved. Yeah. But the two things, it's a world
Speaker 1: where you don't know who you can trust, yeah, trust
Speaker 1: your own child, almost your own parents. Explain that to me,
Speaker 1: like like how did we end up with? Like like
Speaker 1: this is this is the thing to me? Up because
Speaker 1: I wasn't in it when everybody was in it. I
Speaker 1: wasn't a part of everybody loving it. So now on
Speaker 1: the back end, I'm looking at it like Ghost just
Speaker 1: didn't want to sell drugs, Like that's it, right, this
Speaker 1: whole show was about because that's the goal. I think
Speaker 1: when you are drug dealer, you want to eventually take
Speaker 1: that money and go legit and not have to sell
Speaker 1: drugs anymore. Well, how much money did they make? They had?
Speaker 1: It was in what was it? What was like a
Speaker 1: big asscause, But there was just too many reasons why
Speaker 1: he couldn't get out. They would not let him. I was,
Speaker 1: but it was so much until he could have I
Speaker 1: never knew how much money they make. And then he
Speaker 1: wanted to become a politician. I'm like, let this man
Speaker 1: like he literally told her, and everybody be on his
Speaker 1: head like oh, and it looked bro was weak, like
Speaker 1: he like Ghost be doing such, let's just call it
Speaker 1: be doing such. But there was a moment where he
Speaker 1: was just like I remember before he started Angela, before
Speaker 1: he came to his wife like love, like I don't
Speaker 1: want to do this no more, like and she was like, right,
Speaker 1: shut up, go get them drugs, and he's like, let's
Speaker 1: changed the shoot, Like that's what happened. Like he was
Speaker 1: like that. He was like, he shouldn't have killed the
Speaker 1: driver then, because then his wife would have been occupied.
Speaker 1: That's so toxic. Look, look, look, and I'm not bashing nobody,
Speaker 1: but the reality is before he even started, old girl,
Speaker 1: she was already getting off in the car to the driver.
Speaker 1: She was already masturbating, and she saw him talking to
Speaker 1: someone and she was like, I'm busting it open. And
Speaker 1: I was like, this show is toxic, toxic, but as
Speaker 1: we know, real life is toxic. Oh my god, this
Speaker 1: show huh. I'm just saying, Malcolm up here, man, Malcolm,
Speaker 1: and I do have to say we do appreciate you.
Speaker 1: I know it's a difficult time, but the fact that
Speaker 1: you still came up here and you know this has
Speaker 1: an amazing interview and that we are going to have
Speaker 1: you back and for everything that you have going on,
Speaker 1: but we appreciate that. Man. I appreciate y'all. Man, you know,
Speaker 1: shout out to t Rogers, shout to the family, y'all, man,
Speaker 1: appreciate you. Now. The reason I want you back because
Speaker 1: I really want to see you and Charlotte. Man moves
Speaker 1: in furniture over there. No, it was now he cooled
Speaker 1: over man. You know it's Malcolm Hay's. Is the breakfast
Speaker 1: Club goomrning? This is the Woman Report with Angela Yet
Speaker 1: well it's just a day and Tip Well tonight, I
Speaker 1: guess Certify lover Boy is coming out and Drake has
Speaker 1: been using nationwide billboards to reveal some of the people
Speaker 1: who are on his album. Now I saw some of
Speaker 1: these billboards and people posting them on social media. Hey,
Speaker 1: New York, the Goat is on CLB, Certifi lover Boy, Hey, Chicago,
Speaker 1: Smirk is on CLB Hey, California, give Me on? And
Speaker 1: Ty Dollar on CLB Hey, Memphis, Yeah, and Project Patter
Speaker 1: on CLB. Hey, he's in the hometown. Hero is on
Speaker 1: CLB yea in Project pat that's the one. That's the one.
Speaker 1: I can't wait to hear drop on the clues Bomb
Speaker 1: for that class. I don't know if that's the same
Speaker 1: song or what, but he's just in different where people
Speaker 1: are from. He's putting up billboards from there. I don't
Speaker 1: know that they're on the same song, but if they are, man,
Speaker 1: even if they, oh my god, you have been in
Speaker 1: Project Pat with Drake. Oh my god, Hey Atlantis line, Pluto,
Speaker 1: Savage and Baby are on certified lover Boy. So looks
Speaker 1: like there's a lot, a lot, a lot a lot
Speaker 1: of guest appearances. But it should be exciting, and I
Speaker 1: know we're all excited to hear what that sounds like.
Speaker 1: So I love what I want to This is gonna
Speaker 1: go down. Yeah, I love what Drake and Kanye are
Speaker 1: doing as far as their rollouts, you know what I mean,
Speaker 1: Rollouts still matter. Corporations just have to stop being cheap
Speaker 1: and spend those budgets on the marketing. But I love
Speaker 1: seeing it. I thought Ja Cole had a great rollout
Speaker 1: earlier this year, But what Yea and Drake are doing
Speaker 1: right now should make these labels understand that you need
Speaker 1: budgets and marketing outside of throwing a couple of dollars
Speaker 1: to the internet. Also, I gotta say Drake is one
Speaker 1: up Kanye too with those billboards as well, because Kanye
Speaker 1: had he had a very feature heavy album too, he
Speaker 1: didn't put billboards in those all the cities Kanye just started.
Speaker 1: Kanye just started to flood Toronto with Donda billboards as well. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I love it. I think it's great. Oh my gosh. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but I will say this. You know, Kanye did do
Speaker 1: those three big events and broke all kinds of streaming
Speaker 1: services before putting the actual album out. He stopped, Dak
Speaker 1: Drake is gonna break every single screaming record possible. That
Speaker 1: whatever we're just talking about rollout. That was a good
Speaker 1: rollout strategy. I just gave him props for it. That's
Speaker 1: why I said I like drinking Kanye's rollouts now. Little
Speaker 1: Wayne recently did a Q and A on Twitter. He
Speaker 1: said that he was only going to be answering questions
Speaker 1: about his new album, Carter four, and he put hashtag
Speaker 1: asked Wayne, and one person actually asked him about having
Speaker 1: to go back and change his verses. Do you ever
Speaker 1: get a verse from someone that's so hot you go
Speaker 1: back in the jest yours? If so, can you name
Speaker 1: a few people everything breaks him back? I always have
Speaker 1: to go back and read. It's never because it's I mean,
Speaker 1: obviously it's always too hot, but it's always because he
Speaker 1: says something in that that makes it be like, that
Speaker 1: makes me be like, oh, I could make more of
Speaker 1: the song and capitalize more of the song off of
Speaker 1: something that he just said, and that I didn't say.
Speaker 1: And so Drake has always told you. Yes, I have
Speaker 1: changed my verse a billion times because of Drake, and
Speaker 1: that's always a person, all right. So that was an answer,
Speaker 1: a great part of the rollout. Even though that's the
Speaker 1: organic part of it, you know what I mean, that's
Speaker 1: still another great part. There's nothing when when people say
Speaker 1: he had to change his verse. I don't think there's
Speaker 1: ever anything wrong with it't You're gonna make the song better.
Speaker 1: That's the whole point. Yeah, still iron sharp, resign, still sharp,
Speaker 1: and still whatever the quote is, all right, A little bit,
Speaker 1: Little Baby and Jack Boy are teaming up to help
Speaker 1: build a hospital in Haiti. Now. In the recent Instagram study,
Speaker 1: jack Boy described what he was seeing when he visited
Speaker 1: Haiti after the earthquake. He said there were several patients
Speaker 1: at a hospital that were forced to sleep outside because
Speaker 1: of lack of space, and so he wanted to help,
Speaker 1: and he donated a hundred thousand dollars and he said,
Speaker 1: he posted, I just walked through a hospital in Haiti
Speaker 1: and all the patients sleeping outside, I personally handed every
Speaker 1: single last one of them an envelope full of money.
Speaker 1: But for real, I feel like that ain't enough. Who
Speaker 1: want to go half with me and get a hospital built?
Speaker 1: It's not really that much, especially if we're using dollars.
Speaker 1: And him and little Baby had a conversation, and I
Speaker 1: guess that's the plan. That little Baby responded to that
Speaker 1: plan of action. He dm Jack Boy about building something special,
Speaker 1: and now that's going to happen. So that's dope. And
Speaker 1: Future is also doing that concert with Free Wishes Foundation,
Speaker 1: the Free Wishes Foundation and partnership with Direct Relief, which
Speaker 1: is also going to aid a benefit content to raise
Speaker 1: money for the relief effort in Haiti as well. Dope.
Speaker 1: I love to see people doing positive things and being inspired,
Speaker 1: all right, And that is your rumor reports, all right, Charlomage,
Speaker 1: who you giving that down? I think we need Dog
Speaker 1: the bounty hunter to come to the front of the
Speaker 1: congregation who like to have world with him. I think
Speaker 1: this could be a teachable moment, right, even though we
Speaker 1: keep teaching the same lesson over and over. But hey,
Speaker 1: well he his brother. We'll get into it next. I'm
Speaker 1: not one of the brothers. One of the brother's side,
Speaker 1: all right, we so we'll get to that. Next. Is
Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. Good morning, So Breakfast Club, your mornings
Speaker 1: will never be the same. Angela year here, And did

Speaker 1: the Bounty Hunter sat down with one of the brothers
Speaker 1: Okay Entertainment Tonight's Kevin Fraser to address allegations that he
Speaker 1: is racist and homophobic because back in two thousand and seven,
Speaker 1: he used the n word during a tape phone call
Speaker 1: with his son. Now, I never listened to this phone call,
Speaker 1: so I didn't know what the context of him using
Speaker 1: the word was. But listen, this is the call that
Speaker 1: was made public to the National Inquiry in two thousand
Speaker 1: and seven. And I have to say warning, this could
Speaker 1: be a trigger if you're a Niggers because she's black.
Speaker 1: It's because we use the word nigger some type yer.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna take a chance ever in life or
Speaker 1: losing everything I've worked for for the thirty years because
Speaker 1: some nigger heard nigger and Turky sent thing in car magazine.
Speaker 1: If Leech was dating nigger, we would all safe to you.
Speaker 1: There's not that they're black, it's none of that. It's
Speaker 1: that we use the word nigger. We don't mean it's scum,
Speaker 1: nigger without a soul. We don't mean that, but America
Speaker 1: would think we mean that. And we're not taking a
Speaker 1: chance on losing everything we got over a racial slur
Speaker 1: because our son goes with the girl like that. I
Speaker 1: can't do that, Ducker. So I hope you get at
Speaker 1: another job, but he cannot work here unless you break
Speaker 1: up with her. Wow, So he wanted to son to
Speaker 1: break up with his black girlfriend. Well, we'll discuss. I
Speaker 1: just I just want to know why is this a
Speaker 1: thing now? Because this was back in two thousand and seven. Okay,
Speaker 1: why don't we just let sleeping dogs that are bounty
Speaker 1: hunters lie? Like? Why is this story coming up now?
Speaker 1: Also in that call Yes and V, he wanted his
Speaker 1: son to break up with his black girlfriend because they
Speaker 1: use the N word. He uses the N word, you know,
Speaker 1: like you know again. I guess he uses it the
Speaker 1: way some black people use the N word for in
Speaker 1: group usage, has a term of endearment, whatever. But dog
Speaker 1: wanted his son to break up up with his girlfriend
Speaker 1: because she may hear them use it and it could
Speaker 1: bring their empire down. Here's the thing, what you're doing,
Speaker 1: the dog will always come to the light. And if
Speaker 1: what you're doing the dark, okay, cause you to lose
Speaker 1: something when the lights come on, that means you probably
Speaker 1: just need to stop whatever it is you're doing when
Speaker 1: the lights are off. Okay. Simple. I don't know why
Speaker 1: we complicate things. If something is wrong, it's wrong, whether
Speaker 1: it's in the dark or in the light. And that's
Speaker 1: why the N word is so complicated in such a
Speaker 1: source of contention. You know, is it an offensive word?
Speaker 1: Is it only offensive when it comes from someone who's
Speaker 1: not black? Should be in rap songs? And it should
Speaker 1: it be so entrenched in our culture? Is it lack
Speaker 1: of etiquette to speak it out loud and mixed company.
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's an age old discussion that will
Speaker 1: probably outlive us. All I do know that there's not
Speaker 1: a white man alive who has the pass to use
Speaker 1: the word. Okay, that I know. I do know there's
Speaker 1: not a white man alive who should be using the
Speaker 1: word regardless of context. But according the dog, the bounty hunter,
Speaker 1: there are N word passes being handed out the white
Speaker 1: folks in these screets, and he got one back today
Speaker 1: in prison. Okay, but according to him, he was just
Speaker 1: busted for driving with a suspended N word license. Okay.
Speaker 1: Listen to his explanation on why he chose to use
Speaker 1: the N word. Listen, I have never been a racist.
Speaker 1: I'm thirty three and a half percent of patchy, But
Speaker 1: because of over fifteen years ago, I have an achilles
Speaker 1: heel because I used the wrong word. Why were you
Speaker 1: using that word so freely? Well, I thought I had
Speaker 1: a pass in the black tribe to use it, kind
Speaker 1: of like Eminem, who gave you the pass the brothers
Speaker 1: who were brothers. I had just gotten out of prison
Speaker 1: in nineteen seventy nine after spending eighteen months in Texas,
Speaker 1: and it was probably three quarters from the black tribe.
Speaker 1: So that was a word that we used back and
Speaker 1: forth as maybe a compliment. My past expired for using it.
Speaker 1: But no one told me that to say a racist
Speaker 1: name doesn't qualify to make you a racist. I have
Speaker 1: more black friends than Eminem. Who's the black tribe? And
Speaker 1: who's the brothers? You got to tell me that I have? Now,
Speaker 1: why is Eminem the bar of black friends? Well, yes,
Speaker 1: very true. I mean there's so much unpack here. I mean,
Speaker 1: once again, there's another white man alive who has a
Speaker 1: path to use the N word in any context. You
Speaker 1: can choose to use it however which way you want.
Speaker 1: But with all speech, there is a price. Stop with
Speaker 1: the freedom of speech nonsense, there's no such thing. Nobody
Speaker 1: is stopping you from saying what you want to say.
Speaker 1: But also nobody is going to be able to stop
Speaker 1: those consequences for the words that come out of your mouth. Either.
Speaker 1: That's what folks are really trying to avoid, consequences for
Speaker 1: what they say, because nobody is stopping you from saying anything.
Speaker 1: We just encourage folks like Dog the Bounty Hunter not
Speaker 1: to use the N word because there will be consequences
Speaker 1: and repercussions. Respect your job, mister white man, because you
Speaker 1: might get bucks in your mouth. Okay. See the problem
Speaker 1: with white men like Dog the Bounty Hunter. They didn't
Speaker 1: grow up around black women. Okay, especially black women from
Speaker 1: the South. I'm from South Carolina. You ain't getting too
Speaker 1: many wanters. Okay, You're gonna get one minum out now,
Speaker 1: and then there's gonna be consequences and repercussions. And because
Speaker 1: of those consequences and cousins, you learn what you can
Speaker 1: and cannot say. Dog the Bounty Hunter did not learn that. Okay,
Speaker 1: he may be learning that now, but it's probably too
Speaker 1: late now. To Angela's point, I need to know why
Speaker 1: Eminem is his bar. Okay, Eminem helped to revitalize Doctor
Speaker 1: Dred's music career, no doubt. Eminem. You know signed fifty
Speaker 1: cent in g Unit. That's what made fifty A superstar,
Speaker 1: international superstar. No doubt, Shady signed members of Griselda early,
Speaker 1: didn't really promote them, but signed them nonetheless. Now they
Speaker 1: got Atlanta's own grip. I'm saying all that to say,
Speaker 1: with everything Eminem has done for hip hop culture, he
Speaker 1: don't got no damn pass to say the N word? Okay,
Speaker 1: why do white people feel like they can play with
Speaker 1: us like that? I got Jewish friends, I got Jewish
Speaker 1: business partners, I got Jewish agents. I don't feel like
Speaker 1: I can use any slurs towards them because of my
Speaker 1: proximity to them. Why does Dog the bounty hunter think
Speaker 1: because he has black friends, he has a right to
Speaker 1: say that word? And why would you want to how
Speaker 1: we call each other kings and queens and gods and goddesses.
Speaker 1: I don't see you in the rush to use that
Speaker 1: kind of language in reference to black people. So why
Speaker 1: the N word? Marl of the story is there is
Speaker 1: no proximity argument when it comes to the N word.
Speaker 1: I'm not even going back and forth with any white
Speaker 1: person about this. Just stop, Okay, this is an old
Speaker 1: lesson plan all right. Now? Dog was also accused of
Speaker 1: being homophobic. Would you like to hear what he had
Speaker 1: to say to Kevin Frasier about that this is good too.
Speaker 1: Would you like to listen? Listen? She's been fed to
Speaker 1: what to say. I have three people that are on
Speaker 1: my staff that are gay man, my daughter's gay baby, Lisa.
Speaker 1: I don't understand why anybody would ever say that. I
Speaker 1: hear what you're saying. I remember, proximity does not mean
Speaker 1: that you're not racist and homophobic. Would I die for
Speaker 1: a gay man or a black man? I laid down
Speaker 1: my life, will die. I need to see it. You
Speaker 1: gotta prove it. When you say things like that, you
Speaker 1: gotta prove it. Okay, Dog, I know he was addicted
Speaker 1: to hard drugs back in the day. I think I
Speaker 1: read them where it was cracking. Okay, But are we
Speaker 1: show he's not using again? Because this is not ass talk? Okay?
Speaker 1: And you know, Dog, I think it's honorable that you
Speaker 1: would lay your life down for a black man. Are
Speaker 1: gay man our gay person? I really do? But that
Speaker 1: just may not be enough. Okay. We don't want you
Speaker 1: to die, all right? Based off these offenses and your
Speaker 1: response and reasoning for your actions. The only way to
Speaker 1: fix this is not to lay down your life for
Speaker 1: a black person or a gay person. We need you
Speaker 1: to lay on your stomach for a black gay man. Okay,
Speaker 1: that's the only way to fix this. Where is Fleece
Speaker 1: Johnson the booty hunter when you need them? Okay, White people,
Speaker 1: I hate to repeat this, but the N word is
Speaker 1: not for you, all right. There is no context or
Speaker 1: a reason for you to use it. And when you
Speaker 1: know better and don't do better, you end up getting
Speaker 1: Donkey of the Day. I send Dog the bounty hunter
Speaker 1: healing energy, but I also got to give him the
Speaker 1: biggest he hall. Did the brothers approved this message? I
Speaker 1: have no idea. You let me know when you get
Speaker 1: them on the line. And if that brothers with an
Speaker 1: sr Z because that determines a lot. Okay, you can
Speaker 1: always tell kind of brothers they are based off how
Speaker 1: they spell brothers. He at the NRS m oh no,
Speaker 1: all right, but what about the Black tribe? Did they
Speaker 1: improve it? Have? No? I have my tribe. I have
Speaker 1: a soul tribe. But I don't think they I don't
Speaker 1: think they're the Black tribe. Okay, whatever that means stified
Speaker 1: out all right? All right, Well, thank you for that
Speaker 1: Donkey of the Day. Up next, ask a yea eight
Speaker 1: hundred five A five one oh five one. Uni relationship
Speaker 1: advice at any type of advice, Call ye right now.
Speaker 1: It's the breakfast Club. Come on, what what what? What
Speaker 1: you gonna know? Baby mama issues snee some words of wisdom?
Speaker 1: Call up now for asking eight hundred five A five
Speaker 1: one oh five one the Breakfast Club. These relationship advice
Speaker 1: need personal advice, just the real advice. Hall up now
Speaker 1: for asking. Morning everybody. It's DJ Envy Angela yee, Charlomagne
Speaker 1: the guy. We are the breakfast Club. Time for asking?
Speaker 1: He Hello, who's this? What I'm doing is Jacob? What
Speaker 1: I'm done? Getting off your chests? Broke? I said, get
Speaker 1: off your chests? What's your question for you? Oh? Ye man?
Speaker 1: I met my father when I was night saying, right,
Speaker 1: we didn't really add the best relationship, and uh as
Speaker 1: a recently he said he wouldn't he wasn't gonna come
Speaker 1: and visit me and my family because we won't take
Speaker 1: the vaccine because he had cold. He had COVID last year.
Speaker 1: And I told him that, you know, I don't believe
Speaker 1: in taking a vaccine right now. Just my choice, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, but he said he won't come
Speaker 1: visit this light. So basically you're like, it's done, a
Speaker 1: relationship done, and I'm just well, how would you take that.
Speaker 1: I marry a couple of things here. It feels like
Speaker 1: there's underlying issues. It's not just this vaccine and him
Speaker 1: not coming to see you right now. It seems like
Speaker 1: this situation is bringing that to light. Because I will
Speaker 1: say this, if he had COVID last year, he had
Speaker 1: it really bad. If he has any underlying conditions. In general,
Speaker 1: people are scared to get COVID, especially because you don't
Speaker 1: know how it could affect you. Some people are dying
Speaker 1: from it, some people are having long lasting effects, and
Speaker 1: they don't know what's going to happen. And so I
Speaker 1: can understand why he's saying he wants to protect himself
Speaker 1: and his family. He could spread it to other people
Speaker 1: as well. So that, to me, isn't a reason to
Speaker 1: say that I'm done with you now. It feels like
Speaker 1: this is just something that has brought to light the
Speaker 1: other issues that you've already had. Yeah, I mean, you know,
Speaker 1: we never really had the best relationship. It was always
Speaker 1: back and forth, and I kind of felt like I
Speaker 1: always told him. It's crazy because I just kind of
Speaker 1: like realized, like we was a kid, I never looked
Speaker 1: at it like that. I just looked at it like
Speaker 1: my father just wasn't in my life. But the reason
Speaker 1: being it is because he was married. You know, he
Speaker 1: had us out of wed Locke with right. You know,
Speaker 1: that's that's something I did. You know, I can't control that.
Speaker 1: I didn't ask me here but not here it is. Listen,
Speaker 1: I'm forty years I'll be forty next year. I'm a
Speaker 1: father year kie. I got the way I my kids
Speaker 1: because of the lack of anything that I had. You
Speaker 1: understand what I'm man. So I feel like I always
Speaker 1: expected a lot out of him and he's always just
Speaker 1: been a disappointment too. And I turned up forel Like
Speaker 1: if I would have never met him, I wouldn't be
Speaker 1: disappointed in him, as I'm always him, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like it's like he always disappointed and even
Speaker 1: as a man, I'm and there's no reason why I
Speaker 1: shouldn't hurt. You know, for nineteen years of your life,
Speaker 1: you didn't notice person, and then he shows up and
Speaker 1: he still doesn't show up, and he has a lot
Speaker 1: of faults and he hasn't been a father to you,
Speaker 1: and so I can understand why your feelings are hurt. Now.
Speaker 1: As far as this as being about the vaccine, I
Speaker 1: think that is not what the real issue is. Like
Speaker 1: I said, and you know, you have met your father
Speaker 1: and sometimes you know, knowing a person and not having
Speaker 1: to deal with the what if your whole life is
Speaker 1: something that gives you some closure too as well. But
Speaker 1: all you can do is make sure that you're the
Speaker 1: opposite of the type of father that he was to you.
Speaker 1: I definitely am right, and so you and if you
Speaker 1: think about it, him being the way that he was
Speaker 1: is actually what helped make you the amazing dad that
Speaker 1: you are here. It's a crazy part, like I like,
Speaker 1: I don't I don't want to bansk my father because
Speaker 1: I love him, you know what I'm saying. No matter what,
Speaker 1: he still gave me, Like he the reason I'm here.
Speaker 1: But it's just you know me and got to be
Speaker 1: held accountable. Man. You know his actions thirty nine years ago,
Speaker 1: he Steven hasn't been held accountable for it. And when
Speaker 1: when I when I put him or I hold him
Speaker 1: to the fire about it, he don't like to talk
Speaker 1: about it. You know what I'm saying, Yeah, and in
Speaker 1: the conversation. But at the same time, he can he
Speaker 1: can call on and try to give the advice, and
Speaker 1: it's hard for me to accept the advice from him
Speaker 1: when it's just a phone call. You know. That's what
Speaker 1: I've been telling years. I've said, I need more from
Speaker 1: you than just phone calls. You know, lot of is
Speaker 1: not a word, it's an accent. I live my kids,
Speaker 1: I love my wife, and I showed him that every
Speaker 1: day body keeping up improvements. I'll take care of him.
Speaker 1: I gotta get up, make something excuse me. But you know, yeah,
Speaker 1: and he should be. And I'm sure that he is
Speaker 1: ashamed of the way that he was as a dad
Speaker 1: and can't even admit that to you. You know, when
Speaker 1: my son turned eighteen this year, or when he was
Speaker 1: a problem the shooter, he told me up because I
Speaker 1: thought about I was so fired of my son being
Speaker 1: there and marking and being in this new space in life.
Speaker 1: But then he told me up because I thought about, damn,
Speaker 1: my father wasn't there for me. And then I also
Speaker 1: got to thinking about, you know, my sons are eighteen,
Speaker 1: I'm raising them to be being I'm raising them to
Speaker 1: be great men and the fear that I have of
Speaker 1: them being out here in the world. I can't ask
Speaker 1: my father about how did that field when I turned
Speaker 1: eighteen and I was out in the world, how did
Speaker 1: you feel about you know, who was your tears? Who
Speaker 1: was your worries about me being out here? You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. So it kind of be like, that's
Speaker 1: that's what I deal with, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: But every day I get up and make it happen. Man,
Speaker 1: and your relationship, but your father is a work in progress,
Speaker 1: and there's gonna be times when you are done with
Speaker 1: him and write him off, and there's gonna be when
Speaker 1: you're like, I do love him. That is my father,
Speaker 1: and he is part of the reason with it. I
Speaker 1: think I'm doing with it right now because I don't
Speaker 1: want to keep going through the emotions. I'm a very
Speaker 1: to be honest, I definitely need therapy. Like as I
Speaker 1: was young, young, when I hear Charlemagne talk about therapy,
Speaker 1: I always thought, like, man, that's not for black people.
Speaker 1: But the older I get now, I definitely know I
Speaker 1: need therapy because just what I'll be going through, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like mentally and now is the
Speaker 1: time to seek that out. And you should see you
Speaker 1: should you should get some therapy for yourself and see
Speaker 1: if your father would actually be open to come into
Speaker 1: some sessions as well. Oh no, we don't even we
Speaker 1: don't even stay in the same we. I mean, you
Speaker 1: can do it virtue, You can do it virtually. No,
Speaker 1: I'm not even open for that. I would more sold
Speaker 1: you go for myself. Yeah, but do that, do that
Speaker 1: and right now I put your and right now, put
Speaker 1: yourself first. You don't have to worry about anything else.
Speaker 1: Put yourself and your family first and handle your business. Okay.
Speaker 1: Just because that man is your blood doesn't mean he's
Speaker 1: your father because he never was. No, he's just my dad.
Speaker 1: That's a difference. The FOS a person that is there
Speaker 1: take care of you. But I just wanted to get

Speaker 1: for his mother. Will tell you what happened, all right,
Speaker 1: we'll get into that next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning,
Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. It's about Angela Yee on the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 1: Well yesterday, As our Kelly child continues in Brooklyn, the
Speaker 1: minister who married Our Kelly and Eliyah described secret wedding
Speaker 1: for the first time. So Nathan Edmond, who's now seventy three,
Speaker 1: said that he had never met R. Kelly or Aliyah
Speaker 1: prior to the ceremony. He didn't know who they were.
Speaker 1: He said he did not think it was anybody special.
Speaker 1: I didn't understand it at all. And he acknowledged also
Speaker 1: that he did not want to be taken the stand
Speaker 1: right now. So, according to the federal indictment, R Kelly Medalia,
Speaker 1: when she was twelve years old, he started a sexual
Speaker 1: relationship with her when she was still a young teen.
Speaker 1: They alleged that he married her because he believed she
Speaker 1: was pregnant and it could keep her from testifying against him. Now,
Speaker 1: a friend of R. Kelly's, who was also an associate
Speaker 1: of the minister, asked for a favor. According to that minister,
Speaker 1: he said, it was a quick ceremony, about ten minutes
Speaker 1: or less in a hotel in the Chicago suburbs. The
Speaker 1: only attendees were himself, R. Kelly, Aliyah, and about three
Speaker 1: other gentlemen who Edmond did not know now, he said.
Speaker 1: Before conducting the ceremony, he was asked to sign a
Speaker 1: confidentiality agreement, but he refused. He said it didn't look
Speaker 1: legally sound. Instead, he gave his word that he would
Speaker 1: never speak about the ceremony, and he agreed, and they
Speaker 1: offered him somewhere between twenty five and fifty dollars to officiate,
Speaker 1: but he declined the money. He said that R. Kelly
Speaker 1: and Aliyah were matching jogging suits for the wedding ceremony
Speaker 1: eat with one pant leg rolled up to the knee,
Speaker 1: and so that's the first time he's ever publicly spoken
Speaker 1: about their wedding. Ceremony, So question, nobody else would be
Speaker 1: charged with like conspiracy in a situation like that, because
Speaker 1: it had to be people who knew, you know, she
Speaker 1: was under agents and still let that go down, right Yeah.
Speaker 1: Well yeah, and the minister on his behalf, you know,
Speaker 1: they had gotten the forged paperwork, so he didn't know. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm not talking about him. I'm talking about like this
Speaker 1: people and their team. Yeah, like they crew person who
Speaker 1: got the fake ID for her. It seemed like more
Speaker 1: people would be you know, bought into that situation and
Speaker 1: just just right now. Another woman who goes by the
Speaker 1: name Faith, also testified yesterday. She said she had a
Speaker 1: sexual relationship with r Kelly as recently as February of
Speaker 1: twenty eighteen, and she said that he threatened her with
